Beck’s Hybrid project moving forward in Colfax

By Jamee A. Pierson Newton Daily News A $15 million corn seed retail and distribution center is moving forward in Colfax with plans to create 50 new full-time jobs.

An update on the Beck’s Hybrid, a 90,000 square-foot distribution center, was detailed by Jasper County Economic Development Corporation Director Chaz Allen during Tuesday’s Jasper County Board of Super-

visors meeting.

“We’re trying to get Internet under the interstate and we’re working to get the sewer water next to the hotel so that it runs into the city,” Allen said.

He currently has two bids from Mediacom and INS for the services and is using LightEdge out of Altoona, a consulting company who works with businesses on critical IT requirements.

Jason W. Brooks/Daily News U.S. Rep. Dave Loebsack talks with constituents at a recent meeting at American Legion Post 111 in Newton. Loebsack announced last week that the House has agreed to fund the TRIO program, which will benefit special services programs at DMACC and other Iowa colleges and universities.

Loebsack supports funding for DMACC support services Congress passes bill to fund TRIO program

By Jason W. Brooks Newton Daily News Last week, U.S. Rep. Dave Loebsack announced Congress had approved funding for a program that will help a wide variety of disadvantaged college students.

When asked about the funding approval, a Jasper County college provost replied quickly, as she was happy to talk not only about the funding, but also the program it

will help.

Loebsack announced 27 community colleges, colleges and universities across Iowa have received a total of $7,351,702 from the U.S. Department of Education to help increase college retention and graduation rates among highrisk students. The TRIO Program is not an acronym, but a group of three federal outreach programs.

Mary Entz, the provost of Des Moines Area Community Col-

lege’s Newton Campus, said the program is essential for hundreds of DMACC students.

“The Trio Program provides academic support, cultural activities, and personal development programming to 200 students at DMACC’s Urban Campus,” she said. “The program is designed to provide under-represented student populations (first-generation college attenders, low income, and/or documented disability) with added support mechanisms SUPPORT | 3A

Dr. Jonathan Sarfati to speak at Newton CRC

United Presbyterian Church will host the August One Voice Community Prayer Gathering at 7 p.m. Aug. 4 at the church, 209 N. Second Ave. E. in Newton.

For more information, call 641-792-4158.

By Jamee A. Pierson Newton Daily News A Creation Ministries International event featuring speaker Dr. Jonathan Sarfati is planned for 3:30 p.m., Aug. 16 at the Newton Christian Reformed Church, 511 S. Fifth Ave. E. At the event, Sarfati will explain the bankruptcy of the evolutionary myth and expose the weaknesses in scientific evidence for evolution, he said.

“It is not always obvious that science works at all because science assumes that there are natural laws, that when you do an experiment someone else can repeat the experiment and get the same results,” Sarfati said. “It’s only the belief that God is the divine law maker that we should expect some regulation in nature.”

A native of Ararat, Australia, Sarfati moved to New Zealand as a child and later studied science at Victoria University of Wellington. There he earned his bachelor of science degree in chemistry before getting his Ph.D. in spectroscopy (physical chemistry).

Sarfati has been a Christian since 1984 and has been interested in apologetics, the defense of faith. He was a co-founder of the Wellington Christian Apologetics Society while in New Zealand.

In 1996, he returned to Australia to accept a position as a research scientist and editorial consultant for Creation Ministries International. He was co-editor of the Creation magazine and also wrote articles for the Journal of Creation as well as contributed to its website.

His first book, “Refuting Evolution,” countered a teacher’s guidebook by the “National Academy of Sciences, Teaching about Evolution and the Nature of Science,” which had been widely circulated and publicized.

Later the same year, he co-authored the updated and expanded “Answers Book,” which is now entitled “The Creation Answers Book,” which answered 20 of the most asked questions about creation and evolution.

He followed up “Refuting Evolution” with “Refuting Evolution2,” countering a PBS Evolu-

tion series and an anti-creationist article in Scientific American. In 2004, he wrote “Refuting Compromise” defending a straightforward biblical creation time line and a global flood along with answering biblical and scientific objections, concentrating on the teaching of day-age/local flood advocate Hugh Ross.

In 2006, he co-authored “15 Reasons to Take Genesis in History” with Don Batten and two years later he published “By Design: Evidence for Nature’s Intelligent Designer. The Greatest Hoax on Earth?,” refuting Dawkins on evolution that came out in 2010 and was a response to a leading atheopath Richard Dawkins’ book The Greatest Show on Earth: The Evidence for Evolution.

Also in 2010, Sarfati, along with is wife, moved to the United States to work at the Creation

Ministries International office as an author speaker, apologist and heat scientist. Most recently in 2012, he expanded and updated a classic general apologetics book, “Christianity for Skeptics,”

by Steve Kumar of New Zealand.

In this book he presents a positive case for the existence of God, the inspiration of the Bible and the divinity and resurrection of Christ. It also answer challenges from suffering, atheism, Eastern philosophy and Islam.

Sarfati is also known for another interest, chess. He is a former New Zealand Chess Champion and represented New Zealand in three Chess Olympiads. In 1988, FIDE, the International Chess Federation, awarded him the title of FIDE Master.

St. Stephen’s Episcopal Church will host a series of “Just Faith: A program that will change the way you look at The World” programs Wednesday evenings in the fall at the church, 223 E. Fourth St. N. in Newton.

The program is for individuals looking to encounter their faith in a way that touches, changes and encourages to live as a Christian in today’s world.

The 24-week process focuses on engagement in the life of Jesus and our call to love and serve others.

Through the exploration of Christian social principles, and in community with fellow participants, participants will share a spiritual journey of faith and compassion that is life-giving. Justice issues to be explored include human trafficking, racism, world hunger, global poverty, environmental concerns, and more.

If interested in attending Just Faith, contact St. Stephen’s Rev. Karen Crawford at vosskar@aol.com or 641-792-6971.

World mayors at Vatican seek ‘bold climate agreement’ VATICAN CITY (AP) — Dozens of mayors from around the world demanded Tuesday that their national leaders take bold steps at the Paris climate talks this year, saying that could be the last chance to keep the Earth’s warming to levels still safe for humanity.

One by one, some of the 60 mayors invited to a two-day Vatican conference lined up to sign a final declaration stating that “human-induced climate change is a scientific reality and its effective control is a moral imperative for humanity.”

They were aiming to keep the pressure on world leaders ahead of the Paris negotiations in December. Pope Fran-

cis last month released an environmental encyclical that denounced what he calls a fossil fuel-based world economy that exploits the poor and destroys the Earth.

Francis told the gathering Tuesday that he had “a lot of hope” that the Paris negotiations would succeed, but also told the mayors: “You are the conscience of humanity.”

Experts have long said that cities are key to reducing global warming since urban areas account for nearly three-quarters of human emissions. Mayor after mayor made an individual plea Tuesday at the conference for the world to change its ways.

plause, California Gov. Jerry Brown denounced global warming deniers who he said are “bamboozling” the public and politicians with false information to persuade them that the world isn’t getting warmer.

Brown, a former Jesuit seminarian, urged the mayors to not be complacent in opposing climate deniers. California has enacted the toughest greenhouse gas emissions standards in North America.

“We have a very powerful opposition that, at least in my country, spends billions on trying to keep from office people such as yourselves and elect troglodytes and other deniers of the obvious science,” he said.

New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio announced new greenhouse gas emissions targets for the Big Apple — committing the city to reducing its emissions 40 percent by 2030 — and urged other cities to follow suit.

“The Paris summit is just months away,” De Blasio said. “We need to see it as the finish line of a sprint, and take every local action we can in the coming months to maximize the chance that our national governments will act boldly.”

De Blasio is a founding member of an alliance of world cities that have committed to reducing emissions 80 percent by 2050 or sooner.

Local & State News Fashion Continued from Page 1A “The newest thing is the $15 challenge. Kids have to go to a garage sale, Goodwill, places like that and find an outfit for $15. They like that, they think it is a lot of fun and they have fun doing it.”

The kids are split up into four age categories with sprouts up to fourth grade, juniors fourth through sixth grade, Intermediates seventh and eighth grade and seniors ninth through twelfth grade. Seniors have the opportunity to move on to the state fair competition.

“The fashion revue is where they make their garment by sewing.

Clothing selection is an outfit they buy. It can be at any cost but they still try to find a bargain,” Ver Ploeg said.

The $15 challenge, which began four or five year ago Ver Ploeg said, has participants working to buy an outfit for $15 or less. Shoes, accessories and undergarments are not included in that price. The challenge was by far the most popular category at this year’s fair.

Those participating were interviewed on Friday and modeled the clothes before a judge. They had to fill out a form about the garment and then discuss the project with the judge before an eventual winner was selected.

Jacqueline Michener was named the senior champion in the $15 challenge and has the ability to move on to the State Fair competition.

“This year the numbers are down a little bit, but it typically is very well attended,” Ver Ploeg said.

Also this year, the show only had girls participating, but boys are more than welcome to join in.

Along with the fashion show, the home economic winners were announced and the Hominy Ridge Independents were named the best building display winner.

You say ‘cheesy 80s rock’ like it’s a bad thing

By Jason. W. Brooks Staff Writer

www.newtondailynews.com | Wednesday | July 22, 2015

When the members of Whitesnake recorded the band’s 1987 hit “Still of the Night,” they probably weren’t thinking about the lasting impact the signature song would have on the lives of millions.

When I was a sophomore in high school, I wasn’t thinking that a small northern Iowa town would be the place where I would likely get my last look at one of my generation’s most well-known rock bands. Many folks weren’t thinking about Whitesnake in 1987, much less now.

They’ve been written off as “Zep Clones” and as bubble-gum synthesizer pop metal, relying on studio effects to produce catchy tunes. But the type of folks who showed up to hear Whitesnake play in Clear Lake last week don’t seem to care about all that criticism.

Likewise, the crowd that came to see Eddie Money at the Des Moines Art Festival on June 27 probably wasn’t thinking about the singer’s drug history, or how his

voice and mobility might have declined, or how he only is known for a handful of well-known hits. That group was dancing and singing and having a great time.

Paul McCartney once asked us what was so wrong about silly love songs. I ask the same question: What’s wrong with fun music, by experienced musicians?

The Eddie Money and Whitesnake concerts my girlfriend, Jacqui, attended — or, as I like to say, participated in — involved seasoned professionals. Having seen all the ways show business has changed over the past 40 years, these guys and their bands and crews know better by now than to take themselves too seriously.

At the same time, Money and Whitesnake singer David Coverdale are serious artists who have taken the time to get better at their craft — Money, perhaps a bit more so, because he plays the saxophone.

Without getting into a debate in comparing these guys to modern

so-called musical acts, it seems like artists had to put in much more effort to become skilled at their craft before the digital era.

There are undoubtedly some talented artists still rising into the mainstream. Alicia Keys, Adele and Hozier are among those who display both songwriting and singing talent.

However, an artist can rise on the strength of marketing knowledge now, whereas Money and Coverdale had to impress record company executives. That required not simply brown-nosing or knowing the right people, but also getting better at performing, both live and in the studio.

It seems to many of today’s artists are more interested in cash and respect than they are in improving the product. One exception is Dave Grohl and the Foo Fighters; it took travels to eight different cities and interviews with musicians, recording engineers, record producers, and others discussing each city’s

musical history, to help compose the band’s latest album. Who else is doing that.

Yes, it’s a generational thing. Some of Money’s and Whitesnake’s catchier songs would have had about as much hit power at any other point in the past 40 or 50 years, and it’s important not to give them too much credit for going beyond bubble-gum pop rock and roll.

Whitesnake played at the Surf Ballroom, which is a place every music lover should visit at least once. The photos and the displays remind me of all the hard work that’s gone into the Jasper County Historical Museum in Newton; we will repeat the mistakes of the past if we don’t learn from history.

History also contains a lot of fun. Many people made a huge sacrifice in the serious business of entertainment, and it’s practically our obligation to sing, dance and turn up the volume to honor that freedom.

Severing a higher education lifeline

By Christine Dickason Three months ago, I walked across the stage at the University of Mississippi to claim my Bachelor’s diploma. Throwing my cap into the Oxford summer air, I felt a sense of accomplishment, but also a sense of uncertainty.

What’s next for me?

My long-term goal is to help expand access to college for under-represented communities.

To realize this dream, I’ll need a graduate degree, following the path of education trailblazers before me. In April, I received acceptance letters from several grad schools. But with little assets to my name, my dreams might be at risk.

Earlier in the year, the federal government announced it was shutting down its Perkins loan program, which provides low-interest loans to students for college and grad school. Unless Congress takes action, this path to higher education for low-income students like me will hit a dead end as the new school year begins.

Scrapping Perkins loans isn’t just a problem for my generation. It jeopardizes the ability of American workers to compete in the global economy in the 21st century.

The Center for American Progress found that investing in education pushes countries to be more economically competitive than others. To truly have a fair shot today, as President Barack Obama likes to say, obtaining a degree past high school is crucial.

Perkins loans can help students at the bottom of the economic ladder take steps towards breaking the poverty cycle. With a 5 percent fixed interest rate and generous grace period for beginning repayment, Perkins loans are more affordable than most other loan options.

Every year, half a million students rely on this program to help them earn a Bachelor’s degree, attend law school, enter medical school — or go wherever their dreams take them. It’s not morally right or economically smart to reserve certain careers to the wealthiest individuals.

Unfortunately, the demise of Perkins loans isn’t getting the attention it should.

With student debt totaling more than $1 trillion, politicians and presidential candidates from both sides of the aisle are claiming that easing the debt burden is a top priority for the 2016 election.

Republican presidential candidate Marco Rubio even included the issue of student debt in his campaign launch, bringing attention to the “young Americans, unable to start a career, a business or a family, because they owe thousands in student loans.”

But presidential hopefuls are silent on the impending closure of the Perkins loan program.

Lawmakers should stop just talking about the burden of student debt and actually do something about it. Empty words mean empty pockets for students.

It’s disappointing to see the likes of Senator Elizabeth Warren,

who recently claimed, “Every student needs a debt-free option,” fail to introduce a bill that might save these loans.

I called student debt advocacy groups to find out what they were doing to fight for the renewal of the Perkins program.

The short answer? Nothing.

They either were unaware of the Perkins shutdown or expressed optimism that Congress will act soon enough.

Unfortunately, hope only goes so far. Hope alone won’t open the door for students to participate in classroom discussion, organize peers around important justice movements and grow as thought leaders. Hope won’t pay tuition bills.

That’s why we need action.

Guaranteeing a steady supply of low-interest loans and grants alone won’t make higher education more affordable for everyone. Only curbing spiraling tuition tabs can do that. But until an alternative solution emerges, the Perkins loan and other programs like it are crucial lifelines.

For me and so many other American college and grad students, the Perkins program is more than just a line in the government’s budget. It’s a promise of a brighter future.

Generous academic scholarships helped me earn my Bachelor’s degree while I worked 20 hours a week. Without a Perkins loan, I may need to put the next step in my education on hold.

Last week, 2016 presidential candidate Donald Trump dropped his second headline-making comment of the race.

R e sponding to statements f r o m Senator John M c Cain, R-Ariz., By Ben Shapiro in which McCain labeled Trump’s supporters on immigration “crazies,” Trump shot back that McCain wasn’t a war hero, because he had been captured. “I like people who weren’t captured,” Trump said, paraphrasing a 2008 Chris Rock routine in Michael Scott-like fashion.

Trump’s shot was mean, nasty, uncalled for and idiotic.

The media world immediately declared Trump’s campaign over.

A few days before the comments, Huffington Post — a publication created by onetime failed California gubernatorial candidate Arianna Huffington — announced that it would feature Trump in its entertainment section rather than its politics section. The Wall Street Journal editorial board opined, “It came slightly ahead of schedule, but Donald Trump’s inevitable self-immolation arrived on the weekend when he assailed John McCain’s war record.

The question now is how long his political and media apologists on the right will keep pretending he’s a serious candidate.”

Trump’s rival candidates leapt on the opportunity to throw dirt on Trump’s political grave.

Governor Rick Perry, R-Texas, said, “I have no confidence that he could adeptly lead our nation’s armed forces. His comments over the weekend should completely and immediately disqualify him from seeking our nation’s highest office.”

Senator Marco Rubio, R-Fla., said, “I do think it’s a disqualifier as commander in chief.” Both trail Trump substantially in the polls.

Trump will, and ought to, take a serious hit in those polls after his McCain idiocy. But he will not go down this easily. That’s because Trump exemplifies two qualities many Republican voters seek: brashness and an unwillingness to back down in the face of critics.

Trump’s brashness is both his blessing and his curse — but unlike Spider-Man, Trump seems unable to comprehend that with great power comes great responsibility. He says foolish things, and then refuses to back down from them. But that stubbornness seems to act as a counterweight to his brashness, in an odd way: Conservatives hungry for an unapologetic candidate resonate to Trump, even if he should apologize for his latest tomfoolery. Trump puts himself in a position to draw fire from both the establishment Republicans and the media; when he draws that fire, even for good reason, the base leaps to his defense.

Even better for Trump, his long history of making inane comments means that it will be tough for any one comment to finish him.

Like Hillary Clinton on the Democratic side, Trump is so flawed a candidate that it’s difficult to tell where the fatal flaw may lie. In such a scenario, flaws become assets. Trump has shifted his positions? Sure, but he’s done so constantly — he’s a man of the moment, many believe, and thus we can believe whatever nostrum falls from his lips now. Trump has engaged in corrupt dealings? Sure, but he’s so rich that he won’t need to take payoffs, unlike those he’s already paid off. Trump never shuts up? Well, at least he won’t shut up when told to by those in power.

Wife learns man was seeking more than exercise at the gym DEAR ABBY: I have been with my husband for 10 years. We were married six months ago. Before the wedding, we had some breakups. During one of them, he dated another woman briefly. The encounter led to her becoming pregnant, and she gave birth to a boy who is now a year old. I learned about her and her pregnancy five months before our wedding, but we have been able to work through it with intense counseling.

Last week, I received a Facebook message from a woman who advised me that my husband had approached her at the gym and said he was single, so they went on a date. After our wedding he stopped seeing her, but continued contacting her. She figured something was up, and found pictures of me and my husband on Facebook. When she told him she knew he was married, he stopped calling and texting. She said she knew him for only a week and didn’t have sex with him.

When I confronted him, he said he had made a “mistake.” He apologized and said it wouldn’t happen again. He said he no longer sees her, but how can I ever trust him again? Please tell me what to do. — THE NEW MRS. IN KANSAS DEAR NEW MRS.: After what happened, I don’t blame you for distrusting your husband. He had every intention of starting a sexual relationship with the woman at the gym, and would have if she hadn’t researched him.

The man you married appears to have a serious character defect. It’s up to you to decide if you are willing to tolerate another “lapse,” should it occur.

Some women are willing to stay married to a womanizer, but others don’t want to put up with the pain. I can’t decide that for you, but some sessions with a psychologist may help you make a well-thought-out decision.

DEAR ABBY: I’m a girl in my early teens. Recently I attended a

family gathering at my grandparents’ home. While I was upstairs alone, my 14-year-old cousin “Jared” asked to see my boobs. When I told him no, he immediately made me promise not to tell anyone. I’m afraid of Jared now and I need help. What should I do? — FREAKED OUT IN INDIANA DEAR FREAKED OUT: Some promises are supposed to be kept. Others can be dangerous. It is important to know the difference. What you should do is tell your mother what happened.

Jared’s parents need to be aware so they can talk with him about appropriate behavior because his wasn’t, and he could land in serious trouble if he doesn’t learn about boundaries.

DEAR ABBY: Recently, my mother divorced her second husband (not my father). It was ugly. She has been down in the dumps, and I’m doing my best to console her. She wants to get rid of his last name, which is understandable, but she wants to change it to MY married last name, so “we’ll all have the same family name.”

I think it’s kind of sweet. My husband doesn’t mind. A few family members think this is crazy. What say you, Abby? — LISA IN NEW JERSEY DEAR LISA: Although it’s unusual, if you and your husband have no objection, I think the other family members should stay out of it.

4 Iowa universities report hikes

Branstad seeks security review at National Guard sites DES MOINES — Gov. Terry Branstad asked the Iowa National Guard on Monday to review security at its facilities after last week’s shooting in Chattanooga, Tennessee. Iowa National Guard Maj. Gen Timothy Orr is to assess the protection for those working at the Guard’s military facilities and recruitment sites, but there is no deadline to report back to Branstad.

The governor’s spokesman, Jimmy Centers, said the governor would wait to hear from Orr before making any decisions.

2 people hospitalized after small plane crashes in Iowa

ATLANTIC — District trustees have been asked to reverse their earlier decision to phase out the sign language interpreting program at Iowa Western Community College in Council Bluffs.

Seven people testified at the board’s meeting on Monday at the Cass County Center in Atlantic. Bob Vizz, who represented the Deaf Services Commission of Iowa, told the board that “the need is here, and we need to be able to accommodate the needs of the deaf and hard of hearing.”

OXFORD — Authorities say two people were treated at a hospital after the plane they were in crashed as it tried to take off from a private airport in eastern Iowa. The Johnson County Sheriff ’s Office says the accident occurred around 8:30 p.m. Saturday at Green Castle Airport near Oxford. The office says the single-engine plane overturned when it ran off the runway.

winter park would cost $4.3M

SIOUX CITY — A committee has made its recommendation to Sioux City leaders for a proposed winter recreational park with a price tag almost $14 million less than expected.

The facility, which could include sledding, tubing, skiing and a lodge, was initially estimated to cost $18 million. City officials estimated costs for the facility would be about $4.3 million.

ND agency signals comfort on some pipeline issues BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) — A Texas company appears to have adequately addressed some of the biggest environmental issues facing its $3.8 billion pipeline from western North Dakota to Illinois, North Dakota regulators said Monday.

North Dakota’s Public Service Commission held an informal work session on Dallas-based Energy Transfer Partners’ Dakota Access project, the biggest-capacity pipeline proposed to date to move North Dakota crude across South Dakota and Iowa on its

way to Illinois, where crude would be shipped to Midwest and Gulf Coast refineries.

Though the three-member regulatory panel took no action Monday, it signaled approval of the company’s plans to address worries about river crossings and returning the land to normal after the pipeline has been placed. It was the first time the panel had met since holding public hearings on the project in Mandan, Killdeer and Williston.

“I’m comfortable with what they are proposing,” Commis-

sion Chairwoman Julie Fedorchak said. Fellow Republican commissioners Brian Kalk and Randy Christmann also expressed confidence in the company’s plans for land reclamation and river crossings.

Almost 360 miles of the 1,130-mile pipeline would pass through North Dakota at a cost of about $1.4 billion.

The steel pipeline will vary in diameter from 12 inches to 30 inches and would be buried at least 4 feet below ground.

The company said the pipeline would carry 450,000

Mmm mmm good

barrels of crude per day and could be expanded to 570,000 barrels daily depending on demand.

The pipeline’s path in North Dakota would cross beneath the Little Missouri River once and the Missouri River twice, near Williston and Mandan. The company said the pipeline would include safeguards such as leak detection equipment. Workers monitoring the pipeline remotely in Texas could close block valves on the pipeline within three minutes if a breach is detected, the com-

pany said.

Energy Transfer Partners announced the Dakota Access pipeline last year days after Gov. Jack Dalrymple urged industry and government officials to build more pipelines to keep pace with North Dakota’s oil production, saying that would reduce truck and oil train traffic, curb natural gas flaring and create more markets for the state’s oil and gas.

Fedorchak said the panel should have a final decision on the company’s permit application in the next few months.

GOAL ADJUSTMENT

Jocelyn Sheets/Daily News Lynnville-Sully players Riley Rockwell, Brenna Lanser, Makenzy Rozendaal, Kasiah Ehresman, Kristen Van Der Wilt, Madison Rasmusson and catcher Lizzy Van Manen take the field for the first time in Tuesday’s state softball tournament opener at Fort Dodge.

Hawks’ state title bid derailed by Wolverines

By Jocelyn Sheets Newton Daily News FORT DODGE — It was not third time’s a charm for Lynnville-Sully’s softball team at Harlan and Hazel Rogers Sports Complex.

Long ball trumped small ball as the Hawks dropped a 3-2 decision Tuesday to River Valley’s Wolverines in the opening round of the 2015 Iowa Class 1A State Softball Tournament. A two-run home run by Alycen Knaack in the bottom of the fourth inning propelled River Valley to a 3-2 lead.

The Wolverines had the pitching and defense to make that score stand up through three more innings. Lynnville-Sully, which came into

the state tournament ranked fourth and seeded No. 2, was held to two hits in the contest.

“We just didn’t have our day,” Lynnville-Sully head coach Stacey Alberts said after the contest. “Obviously, we had our hearts set on a different goal. We won’t dwell on it long.

We’re still competitors and want to finish the best we can.”

Lynnville-Sully (35-4) regroups and adjusts its state tournament goal following the first-round loss. For the third straight year, the Hawks fall into consolation bracket play on Wednesday.

The Hawks will be in a rematch of the same consolation game a year ago. They will take on Marquette Catholic’s Mohawks (30-6) at 10 a.m. Lynnville-Sully edged

Marquette Catholic, 3-2, in last year’s matchup.

Marquette Catholic lost 6-5 Tuesday to AGWSR after leading 3-0 going into the top of the seventh. AGWSR scored six runs in the seventh to take a 6-3 lead, The Mohawks scored twice after two were gone, but a strikeout ended the game with the tying run on.

In Monday’s two Class 1A quarterfinals, top-seeded New London beat Newell-Fonda 9-1 and Logan Magnolia dispatched Don Bosco 10-0 in five innings. Those two winners play at 3:30 p.m. and AGWSR plays River Valley at 5:30 p.m. in Thursday’s semifinals.

The 1A championship game is at 5:30 p.m. Friday.

While Lynnville-Sully and Marquette Catholic square off Wednesday morning, Newell-Fonda plays Don Bosco.

The winners of the morning games play for fifth place and the losers go for seventh.

Both games start at 2 p.m.

Wednesday.

Lynnville-Sully opened the game as the visiting team well. Kasiah Ehresman drew a leadoff walk and stole second base. Lizzy Van Manen’s grounder to third base was enough to allow Ehresman to move to third on the throw to first base.

Madison Rasmusson’s ground out produced a run.

The Hawks were up 1-0.

River Valley came right back to tie the game on two singles

by Payton Goettsch and Jenn Knaack. Makenna Thomas, the Wolverines’ starting pitcher, hit the ball hard to center field, and Lynnville-Sully’s Lysandra James misplayed the ball, and it got past her.

Payton Goettsch scored.

Madison Rasmusson got Taylor Goettsch to pop out to Brenna Lanser at third base and she struck out Allison Brown.

The teams played two scoreless innings. Lynnville-Sully left one runner on base in each of the second and third innings. Rasmusson struck out the side in River View’s second and retired the Wolverines in order again in the third.

Lysandra James reached on a dropped third strike to begin the fourth inning for the Hawks. Shelby Foster entered the game as James’ courtesy runner and stole second following a fly-ball out by Lanser.

Maria Rasmusson drew a walk and Haley James laid down a bunt for a single to load the bases. Jelissa Rozendaal’s pinch-hit ground out drove in a run. Maria Rasmusson was tagged out trying to score on a passed ball.

The Hawks gained a 2-1 lead.

Thomas singled to left

field to start the bottom of the fourth for River Valley.

Madison Rasmusson struck out the next two Wolverine batters. She had a 0-2 count on Alycen Knaack, when the unloaded on the next pitch to hit her third home run of they year.

Lynnville-Sully did not have another opportunity to score as Thomas and the Wolverines recorded three straight 1-2-3 innings to get the win.

“We had runners on base today. We didn’t execute once runners were in scoring position to bring them across,” Alberts said.

Madison Rasmusson allowed five hits, did not issue a walk and struck out six in a losing effort. Thomas held the Hawks to two hits, walked three and struck out three as River Valley’s winning pitcher.

Maria Rasmusson and Haley James each had a single — both on bunts — for Lynnville-Sully.

Alberts said she was giving the Lynnville-Sully players time with their families right after the game.

“We will reconnect later today, then start talking about today and planning for tomorrow,” she said.

The play came in the fourth inning after the Hawks had scored one to go up 2-1 in the 1A state tournament opener in Fort Dodge. River Valley hit a two-run home run in the bottom of the inning, and went on to win 3-2.

2B |

guaranteed to ever get another chance

ST. ANDREWS, Scotland (AP) — The odds of a Grand Slam already were long simply because no one had ever swept the four professional majors in one year.

If that’s the best measure, this sobering piece of history might make Jordan Spieth feel even worse.

No one ever got another chance.

Dating to 1960, when Arnold Palmer hatched the modern version of the Grand Slam on his way to St. Andrews, no one came closer to the third leg than Spieth. He was tied for the lead with two holes to play.

Two pars would have been enough for a playoff. A par and a birdie would have sent golf into hysteria.

Instead, he missed a par putt on the low side at the 17th, and hit his drive so far left on the closing hole of the Old Course that Spieth was between clubs and had an awkward angle to a front left pin tucked just above the ridge that leads to the Valley of Sin. The bogey-par finish left him one-shot out of a three-man playoff. He was reduced to the role — and a classy one at that — of spectator on the steps of the Royal & Ancient clubhouse as Zach Johnson won a three-man playoff to join a select group of names on the claret jug.

Kel Nagle, Lee Trevino and Ernie Els were the other three players who ended the quest for a Grand Slam. All of them are in the World Golf Hall of Fame. It’s no longer a stretch to think Johnson might join them one day.

In an era where it’s hard to win anywhere on the PGA Tour, and when there is such a premium on power, the 39-year-old Johnson has 12 wins and two majors in his 12 years on tour.

It’s hard to dismiss those numbers.

As for Spieth?

“It’s a tough feeling being that close in a major. It doesn’t matter the historical element of it,” Spieth said. “I believe I’ll have plenty of opportunities like I did today.”

If he’s talking about winning another major, don’t bet against him. Las Vegas already has installed him as the favorite at the PGA Championship.

The Grand Slam is another matter.

Spieth is 21. He at least has youth on his side, though that only goes so far.

Spieth dominated Augusta National with a wireto-wire victory. But the U.S. Open required some help.

Yes, he has closed out his share of tournaments.

Having done it once, Spieth will be on the short list of players who are asked about a Grand Slam after winning the first one.

In the meantime, there is much history he can chase, even if it isn’t the holy grail. Ben Hogan (1953) and Woods (2000) are the only players to have captured three majors in one year. No one has ever won all three American-based majors, and Spieth will get that chance next month in the PGA Championship.

Spieth will be on the short list of players who are asked about a Grand Slam after winning the first one.

End of the slam. Just not the end of the road.

DALLAS (AP) — TCU coach Gary Patterson has a completely opposite approach for the Horned Frogs going into their fourth Big 12 Conference season.

Expectations others have for them certainly have changed as well.

“A year ago, you had to prove people wrong. This year, you have to prove people right,” Patterson said Monday when he was the first coach to take the podium at the league’s football media days.

“As a football team, that’s really, from my approach on down, how we’ve tried to handle it.”

The Horned Frogs have been tabbed as an overwhelming favorite in the Big 12, a year after going 12-1 and being declared co-champions with Baylor. With senior quarterback Trevone Boykin among 10 returning offensive starters, TCU got 32 of 42 first-place votes in the media preseason poll.

A year ago, when they were coming off a 4-8 season in 2013, the Horned Frogs were picked to finish seventh.

“It’s a nice feeling, but the bottom line is I’ve been in this business too long to get caught up in it,” said Patterson, going into his 15th season as the

Frogs head coach. “If I stay (on an) even keel with how we need to do things, then my team will because it just kind of all reverberates down.”

Of the five Big 12 teams that appeared at the first day of media days, TCU was the only program already completel y settled on a starting quarterback for this season.

Boykin, the preseason Big 12 offensive player of the year, finished fourth in the Heisman Trophy voting last season. He threw for 3,901 yards and 33 touchdowns to set school records in both categories and was named the league’s top offensive player.

Kansas State, whose only Big 12 losses last season were to co-champs TCU and Baylor, has seven quarterbacks on its roster.

Three of those quarterbacks competed for the job in spring drills following the departure of two-year starter Jake Waters. Contra Costa College transfer Jonathan Banks signed with the Wildcats in June and will join the competition.

“Probably four of them at this particular point in time, in my eyes anyway, should be competitive for the position,” Kansas State coach Bill Snyder said. “Right now, they’re all on equal footing.”

We s t Virginia has five quarterb a c k s listed, but the only one with starting experience is junior Skyler Howard, who started twice last season. Kansas has new coach David Beaty, while Texas Tech coach Kliff Kingsbury has two quarterbacks (Davis Webb and Patrick Mahomes) who started multiple games last season.

“If we name a starter, we’re going to ride with that guy knowing that we have a great insurance policy behind him,” Kingsbury said. “But I wouldn’t expect a quick hook on whoever we name the starter.”

Baylor, which got the other 10 first-place votes in the media preseason poll and was picked second, is among the teams appearing Tuesday at the Dallas Omni Hotel. Iowa State, Oklahoma, Oklahoma

State and Texas also are part of the second-day program.

Beaty is a first-time college head coach who twice previously was an assistant for the Jayhawks. He spent the past three seasons as a receivers coach at Texas A&M, and his head coaching experience before now was at high schools in Texas.

The Jayhawks have gone 17-55 overall and 4-48 in the Big 12 over the last six seasons.

But Beaty knows he can point out to his team how Baylor and TCU have succeeded in the power conference.

“What two great examples are there out there for a program like us,” Beaty said.

“Art Briles, former Texas high school football coach, one of my coaching heroes coming up. ... Gary Patterson, one of the finest defensive minds in the country, one of the best head coaches in the country, cares truly about kids.”

West Virginia, like TCU, is going into its fourth Big 12 season.

Mountaineers coach Dana Holgorsen has nine returning starters on offense and nine more on defense. There are 40 juniors and seniors on the two-deep list, and more than 50 guys who have played in Big 12 games.

ISU’s Meyers finishing chemo Chiefs waive rookie Cox following another arrest for Hodgkin’s lymphoma DALLAS (AP) — Iowa State defensive lineman Mitchell Meyers is close to wrapping up chemotherapy for Hodgkin’s lymphoma, a process during which he didn’t miss any summer workouts with his teammates.

Cyclones coach Paul Rhoads said Tuesday that Meyers has his last scheduled chemo appointment Friday in Iowa.

Rhoads said Mitchell, who is from the Houston area, will then return to Texas for radiation treat-

ment before rejoining the team in September.

ISU announced in February that Meyers had been diagnosed with Hodgkin’s lymphoma and was beginning treatment.

Rhoads said prayers are still extended for Mitchell and his family, and that the team watches “in admiration and appreciation each and every single day.”

Mitchell, listed at 6-foot-4 and 260 pounds, was one of only four ISU players to start every game last season.

Peterson, Vikings agree to redo last three years of deal MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — Adrian Peterson and the Minnesota Vikings agreed Tuesday to restructure the final three years of his contract, giving the sixtime Pro Bowl running back $20 million in guaranteed money.

The Vikings Peterson announced the agreement four days before players will report to training camp, clearing away any lingering haze that surrounded their relationship with Peterson. Initially disinterested in returning to the team following his reinstatement by the NFL, Peterson softened this spring and took part in several offseason practices with the Vikings last month.

Peterson and his lead agent, Ben Dogra, didn’t appear to have any leverage in negotiations once Vikings general manager Rick Spielman stood firm in his intent to keep Peterson on the team rather than trade him. But despite the drama of the past several months, Peterson got the guaranteed money he sought, another sign of the organization’s widespread appreciation of him.

In a statement distributed by the Vikings, Peterson said he was pleased by the team’s good-faith effort. On Twitter, he posted simply, “Amen,” next to an emoji of a pair of praying hands.

“I appreciate the Vikings for working together on this restructured contract, which provides additional security for

me but also allows opportunities for me to further prove my value to the team and within the NFL,” Peterson said in the statement. “It was important for me to continue my career in Minnesota, and I cannot wait to get on the field in front of Vikings fans again.”

Peterson, out of action for all but one game last year because of the child abuse charge he faced involving his young son, came back from his personal conduct policy suspension with $45 million left on his existing contract. None of that money, however, was guaranteed.

According to a person with knowledge of the situation, speaking to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because of the confidential nature of the terms of the contract, Peterson will be guaranteed $20 million for signing the new deal. That’s the $13 million he was previously scheduled to make this season, plus $7 million next year to cover him in case of injury. By next March, he can make another $5 million with a roster bonus. Peterson’s salary cap hit will be a bit lower the next two seasons, but he can earn back more money with performance incentives.

Peterson will be the highest-paid running back in the league. The revamped contract is designed for him to be in Minnesota when US Bank Stadium opens in 2016.

“This agreement is a win for both Adrian and the Vikings and is a positive step toward Adrian finishing his career as a Minnesota Viking,” Spielman said in a statement distributed by the team.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — The Chiefs have waived defensive back Justin Cox, who was charged with domestic assault, burglary and trespassing for an incident that occurred Monday in Starkville, Mississippi.

Cox was being held on $40,433 bond.

The case is still under investigation.

This is the second time in the past year that Cox has been arrested

for an incidence of domestic violence, though the previous charge was ultimately dropped.

Cox instead pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor charge of trespassing in January.

Cox signed with the Chiefs after going undrafted out of Mississippi State, in part because of his off-the-field issues.

He was suspended the final three games last year after his arrest.

Public Notices CITY OF KELLOGG JULY 13, 2015 Kellogg City Council met in regular session on July 13, 2015 at 7:00 p.m. with Mayor Hinshaw Council members presiding. present: Frymoyer, Aldrich, Avery, Whisenand, and Parsons.

Motion by Frymoyer and seconded by Avery to accept the minutes as mailed and the financial statement as prepared.

Passed unanimously.

Nate and Maggie Roads addressed the council to request hooking up to the City sewer to the Northfield line. The home they have an offer is on the East side of 224 north. This would require them to get a permit from the state to boar under the Highway which would be expensive and also the problem with metering the amount of usage. At this time the property is connected to Rural Water. The best solution is to install a septic.

Doug Gildersleeve thanked the council for the City support during the Sesquicentennial celebration.

Joan Russell addressed the council to purchase the lot on the corner of Blair St and High St. the old gas station. She and Dan are searching for property to build a 40' x 40' building. They want to have an inside building to repair their truck and equipment for his trucking business.

Parsons commented it would have to be advertised and put up for bids.

The other problem is it still has testing wells for contamination.

This will be researched.

Don Benson has two concerns.

One is the dogs running loose and the other is how is the going to get the council properties cleaned up. There are a lot of properties that need attention.

This can be accomplished by sending out infraction notices to residents with the assistance of the City Attorney. If dogs are loose the Animal Rescue League can be called.

Art Faircloth has an issue with his neighbor parking in the alley with his trailer full of scrap and also have a tent erected in the alley.

This is an open alley and this is his only access to his back yard.

Avery will contact the resident.

Faircloth is also concerned about the appearance of the properties in Kellogg and how to get them cleaned up.

Motion by Frymoyer and seconded by Parsons to renew the Library contract with Drake Community Library for $952.82.

Passed unanimously.

A saddle club is interested in using the horse arena. Council would like for them to bring their plans to the council. Request will be table until the club meets with the Council.

Motion by Frymoyer and seconded by Aldrich is issue a building permit for a garage addition of 20' to the rear of the garage at 918 Reuel. Passed unanimously.

Attorney Caldwell constructed a letter outlining the options the City has with the Benson property. The first is to file an Application to the Court for a Court Order for the Bensons to Show Cause for the contempt for not complying with the Court order of February 19, 2015. The second is to obtain a 3rd party estimate for cleanup from someone willing to clean up the mess. Each of the options needs to be done with photos with date and time showing the condition of the property. Avery will contact a 3rd party for estimate.

Aldrich address the issue the City has had with the painting of yellow stripes on the East side of The strips were High Street. painted twice once prior to the celebration day and the other on the celebration day without permission. Her concern is if the should get an Council organization to paint a strip on the steps of the sidewalk.

Parsons is in objection of any painting, as the steps were constructed to be safer than the old steps. Maintenance suggests putting up hand rails.

Maintenance reported that well #3 needs a new power pole.

Alliant classifies this as a rebuild.

Alliant discontinues 3 phase and replaces with 240. City cost will be $14,422 to Alliant Energy and the City side $4,250 to Van Electric.

Council Maanen suggested using guide wires to stabilize the pole.

New dialers have been ordered for the Water plant.

There was a sexual assault at the Park in June.

Motion by Whisenand and by Parsons to seconded purchase 2 lawn mower tires.

Ayes: Frymoyer, Aldrich, Whisenand, and Parsons.

Abstained: Avery.

Mayor reported there was a request from maintenance to mow the North bank by the ball diamond. The flower bed is all weeds and would look better mowed. Request was granted.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21).

Some people believe other people’s lifestyles are somehow an affront to their own.

It makes no sense to you -you’re a live-and-let-live sort.

Let them argue it out while you’re busy making money today.

CANCER (June 22-July 22).

Usually when you reach the point of being irritated with absolutely everyone in the world, the one you’re really mad at is you. Your issue with yourself?

You haven’t given yourself the much-needed break you deserve.

403 West 4th St. North, Newton, IA. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Too many ingredients spoil the soup -- or the project, relationship, schedule, etc. Stick to the recipe. Great patience and restraint will be required for exemplary results.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22).

Certain friends bring out your quick humor, and others make you feel like you’re always dodging conversational quicksand. Why put yourself in uncomfortable situations? Choose your company carefully.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21).

Before you invent a new way to get to the goal, give the old one a try. If it works, it will save you unnecessary effort.

Your brain is best put to work on a problem that hasn’t been solved by anyone yet.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Manipulation is when you trick someone into wanting what you’d like them to want.

It leads to nothing good. You want to influence others to be their best, but they have to want that, too.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). This is a day when your body knows more than you do about what it needs. Listen to

the muscles and appetites that live in you. Trust your physical instinct.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18).
