The memory of the late Brendan O’Brien lives on through his love of art and a scholarship for students interested in pursuing a creative-based occupation.

Bob O’Brien, local owner of Dairy Queen, lost his son in a vehicular accident in 2013.

“Brendan was in every way an artist at all times,” O’Brien said.

“He took art classes at the YMCA and in Des Moines and was just always doodling and drawing. I thought it would be best to honor

him through a scholarship intended for artists.”

O’Brien said for the past few years, the Brendan O’Brien Fund has provided a scholarship for high school seniors interested in the arts, but this is the first year it has established a connection with the Centre for Arts and Artists to give $1,000 to a college student.

“We just hope the money is used in anyway it helps the student,” O’Brien said. “Anything to really perpetuate my son’s name is great for SCHOLARSHIP | 3A

In Brief Teed to receive Iowa State University School of Education scholarship AMES — The Iowa State University College of Human Sciences announced the list of returning students who will receive scholarships from the School of Education for the 2015-16 academic year. Jena Teed of Colfax, a sophomore in elementary education,

will receive the Branstad Scholarship.

The Iowa State University College of Human Sciences and its school and academic departments awarded more than $1 million in student scholarships and awards for the 2015-16 year.

Area students receive Wartburg College diplomas Jason W. Brooks/Daily News Des Moines Area Community College completed a memorandum of understanding with the Newton Community School District board of education earlier this year. The “Gateway to College” program is now available as a sort of college-credit program that allows students to continue to earn a high-school diploma while attending DMACC, and Samantha Martin is about to become the first Newton High School graduate of that program.

Gateway to College program has its first Newton graduate Martin, a Mississippi transfer, completed CNA course

By Jason W. Brooks Newton Daily News When Samantha Martin recently relocated to Iowa, she wasn’t sure exactly how her educational future would pan out.

However, when she returns to Mississippi later this year, Martin will have in her hands both a Newton High School diploma and a nursing assistant certificate.

Des Moines Area Community College’s “Gateway to College” program is in its sixth year, and a memorandum of understanding was recently approved last winter by both DMACC and the Newton Community School District board of education. This allows Newton Schools to refer students to the program, and Martin will be the first student referred by the district to graduate.

Students get regular diplomas from their referring high schools. The Gateway program ceremony is scheduled to be held at 5 p.m., Aug. 7 at DMACC’s Southridge Center.

The Gateway program is for students, age 16-20, who are behind on credits and have exhausted all of their high school district’s options in programs. It allows students to attend DMACC without being charged for tuition, books or supplemental supplies, and to pursue credits toward both a regular high school diploma and a college certificate or degree, until the semester when a student turns 21.

Martin is 16, so she is at the younger end of the age spectrum generally considered for Gateway. She was behind on

credits when she moved to the Newton area.

“I moved here from Mississippi, which has its curriculums set up much differently from Iowa,” she said. “I was really happy when I found out about this program.”

Unlike regular DMACC students or dual-enrollment students, qualifiers for the Gateway program must have the approval of their school district’s administration, and must be behind in credits for age and grade level to graduate on time.

Martin is probably not a typical example of how Gateway works with most students, as she never attended a Newton Schools campus as a regular student before being referred to DMACC. The student must still live in the DMACC district as well, be able to get to one of the college’s centers, and be able to read at an eighth-grade level or higher. Most importantly, students must be excited and motivated to work toward both a high school diploma and a col-

lege degree or certificate — or the arrangement won’t work.

Ahmed Agyeman, an associate director of program development at DMACC, said the program is not for every kind of student, but will work for motivated students who are ready to focus on completing an education.

Students can take their lowest-level college classes at any of the DMACC locations, such as the Newton Campus, but often find that one of the college’s trade-specific programs, such as the paralegal program offered at the urban campus or those offered as part of the FFA Enrichment Center on the Ankeny Campus, will be where they want to finish their degree or certificate.

“We wait for school districts to refer students to us,” Ageyman said.

Agyeman said each student is evaluated for whether the program will work for them (some are really close to graduating — others are simply too far behind in credits), and a contract is signed. Students meet with staff regularly to discuss their needs, and some take “life skills” or “college experience” classes to become acclimated.

The Gateway program, began about five years ago with a grant from Walmart, has become a regularly funded program, with a long list of donating organizations that includes the Gates Foundation. The program is available at 43 colleges in 23 different states.

Scholarship

Elliott said he has three daughters attending Newton schools, plus nephews, and he is in his third year of coaching with the Newton Area Soccer Association. He said he feels a different perspective could have a positive impact on the district, and he said he views serving on the board as a way to give back to the community.

Cantu and his wife, Katie, have two children who are not in school yet, and he has been an engineer with the Pella Corporation for the past 13 years. He serves on the City of Newton Planning & Zoning Commission, and he said the district “has all of the necessary elements to provide a world class education.” He shares the passion and enthusiasm the community has for strong public education.

Perrenoud has been on the board since 2011.

The Newton High School graduate grew up in Newton and taught in the Newton Community School District for 33 years, retiring in 2007. He was also very active in PTA, serving as president of the City-Wide PTA. After retiring, Perrenoud did extensive substitute teaching for several school districts. For the past four years, he has been employed by Casey’s Convenience Store, serving the past two years as a manager at one of the Newton locations.

Perrenoud has lived in Lambs Grove for more than 25 years, serving as mayor for nearly 10 years.

Cook has served on the Newton school board since she was elected to a three-year term in September 2004, serving as its vice president at one time. A state law change, enacted in 2009, made school-board terms four years.

Cook is a registered nurse and the Director of Nursing Services at the Newton Correctional Facility. She grew up in Newton and has been an active volunteer in the community and has served on the local, state and national Parent Teacher Association levels, serving as Iowa’s state PTA president.

Clark and his family relocated to Newton with his family in 2007 when he was hired as a systems administrator for Grinnell Mutual Reinsurance.

He is frequently deferred to by Newton Schools administrators and board members on many topics related to computer hardware and the associated technology.

me. I just hope that other artists may think of him in the future.”

The money in the fund is able to continue these scholarships for 20 to 30 years into the future, he said.

This year’s scholarship recipient is Lauren Roush, a Newton native entering her senior year at Grinnell College.

The Centre for Arts and Artists hosted a presentation Wednesday night to recognize her.

Roush was homeschooled as a child, and attended Newton High School for art and AP classes. She also took advanced nursing at DMACC while in high school and became a Certified Nurse’s Assistant, which allowed her to work with disabled adults for nearly five years. Roush then received her Associates Degree at DMACC, and transferred to Grinnell as a fine art major three semesters ago.

“Art has just always been something that I’m interested in,” Roush said. “I couldn’t really pick a time when I became interested in it … I’ve just always been

passionate about art.

And my parents have always been very supportive. They’ve always said, ‘do what you love, and the money will follow.’”

O’Brien said Linda Klepinger, director of the Centre for Arts and Artists, chose Roush’s application.

“She told me about Lauren, we sat and talked about her and I thought she was a wonderful candidate based on what I had been told,” O’Brien said.

As a younger student, Roush volunteered and took classes at the Centre for Arts and Artists, and has known Klepinger for many years.

“Anyone who has a creative spirit, regardless of their position in life, can come back to that creativity,” Klepinger said. “Art is therapeutic, engaging and gives a passion. Artists have that passion and are anxious to learn new skills, they enjoy creating for their own heart and soul.

“Brendan had that same soul, and Lauren has that same passion to excel and please herself through her art. I think it is such a wonderful opportunity that Bob O’Brien is providing for Lauren, and she is very

deserving of it.”

Roush is currently working on an internship at the Jeweler’s Bench with her uncle, Jeff Roush. She said she used to do more traditional 2D work but has since found other mediums she enjoys, like sculpture and jewelry.

“Art can influence a lot of people in different ways,” Roush said.

“It is aesthetic, and it can be used as a form of social healing and social critique, a form of expression. It can also be very cathartic for some people.”

Klepinger said the ability to finance a college education can be difficult for art majors.

Many colleges have hidden studio fees and require students to pay out-of-pocket for project materials.

“But there are so many jobs with a creative base, and many facets of creative-based activities, so this scholarship can really help,” Klepinger said.

Ruth DenHartog, an art teacher at Newton High School noticed

the talent in Roush when she was a high school student.

“When a student takes an interest in art, all of the teachers take an interest in the student,” DenHartog said.

“We noticed she was creative and had a hard work ethic to produce work. You can really tell when someone is interested in trying new things and honing their skills ... and for Bob O’Brien to honor his son by supporting people interested in art — it’s like a living legacy.”

Roush said she is unsure of her plans for the future, but hopes to possibly receive her master’s in fine art and teach in a college setting.

“I am very, very thankful to the O’Brien family for the scholarship,” she said. “It’s kind of bittersweet for me ...

I hope that the scholarship can be used as a form of healing for the O’Brien family as much as it is helpful to my education.”

In the Neighborhood

Contrasts of my surroundings

By Pam Rodgers Associate Editor

www.newtondailynews.com | Friday | July 31, 2015

It’s amazing how just the slightest distinction can make the biggest difference and the smallest of contrasts can make something completely diverse.

Growing up in a small Iowa town is an excellent example of this. I am considered a “city girl,” more accurately termed a town girl or “townie.” My parents are teachers; therefore, I grew up in an environment without the need to plant corn or beans or raise livestock. Yet, our house was on the last street in the southern part of town, surrounded by a farm atmosphere. There was a field in our backyard and another just across the road in the front. It alternated year by year whether one field was corn and the other soybeans.

I was surrounded by the sights and sounds of vast, open spaces; yet our neighbors weren’t miles away — just a short walk down the sidewalk.

Not every “townie” lived like this. Our town had its normal grid of paved streets with brick

buildings in the downtown area for businesses. It was not a big city layout, but it was developed nonetheless. However, no matter where your house was in town, you never had to go very far to see a corn or bean field.

My little hometown was nestled in a valley surrounded by the rich, rural areas for which Iowa is known. When I go back for a visit, I still take a few moments to stop and appreciate my surroundings.

This isn’t just specific to Iowa.

If you look hard enough, you can find similar contrast all over the nation or even the world if you’re lucky enough to see more of it.

On my recent trip to the east coast, I got to experience the world from two vastly different viewpoints.

We spent several days in Washington, D.C., taking the Metro around the city among the hustle and bustle of the crowds. People in business suits were trying to get places in a hurry; and tourists like us were wandering around trying

to act like we knew what we were doing, and, at times, failing.

There were green spaces in the city, but for the most part it was a concrete jungle with zero resemblance to the surroundings of home. I enjoyed my time in the city. Observing people in a different habitat, if you will, is fascinating.

On days we weren’t rushing around the big city, I was relaxing in a cabin in the wilderness of Spotsylvania County, Virginia.

My family and I were surrounded by wonderful, natural landscape with trees and lakes all around. It was peaceful, and we had no cell reception to speak of. You felt like you were in a completely different world.

At times, you could picture what it was like in years past. The place we were staying really made you feel like you could be back in the late 19th century, except with electricity and indoor plumbing, of course. Our cabin had a shaded front porch with two old-style

rocking chairs and a grill. The scenery was amazing as well with portions of dense wooded areas, which have been preserved over the years. It gives someone a brief glimpse at what the wilderness was like when the Civil War raged. It was nice to feel a little secluded, if only for a little while; but was a complete contrast to the subway and sightseeing in Washington, D.C. These changes in scenery can be a great thing, because if we spend too long in one setting, we become restless. But these are only my observations. I imagine it’s different for everyone. All I know is I am thankful for the town in which I grew up, tiny though it may be. I was given the chance to experience the peace and tranquility of rural living while sticking to “my town girl ways.” I’m not sure I would want it any other way.

The Uprising

Wisconsin’s cautionary tale

Another View

Trading up for a better trade deal

By David Levine As the dust settles on the fight in Congress over Fast Track for the Trans-Pacific Partnership trade deal, we have an opportunity to think anew about what good trade policy could be. If get past the rhetoric, we can expand the public and political dialogue about trade and truly understand the impact it can have all our businesses.

Representing hundreds of thousands of businesses from diverse sectors and different regions nationwide, we have come to understand first-hand that trade is an important element of a robust economy. As a business organization, we opposed Fast Track and the TPP not because we are against trade, but because we need a better trade deal than what the TPP is offering.

In evaluating the TPP we identified key principles that can and should be considered when negotiating a strong and fair trade bill.

One is transparency, a fundamental goal for developing and implementing any trade agreement. Legislators and the public must have access to the trade agreement in formation. From our businesses’ perspective, it is not acceptable that a small number of larger corporations get to set the agenda while small and medium-sized enterprises don’t even get a seat at the table. Any trade deals should go through an open dialogue that includes a diverse group of stakeholders.

We also need more transparency in the business practices advanced by a trade deal, so that

we know where our products are coming from and what is in them.

Country of Origin rules and disclosure of chemical ingredients are two examples.

There should also be a system for fair adjudication. Corporations should not have a greater power than sovereign governments. Deliberations for disputes should be handled with the most democratic processes possible, while ensuring that state sovereignty remains respected.

Another fundamental principle is that trade deals should boost worker and environmental standards, not lower them. We should preserve the right and ability of our federal, state and local governments to set standards and guidelines. We should seek the highest common ground, not the lowest.

We no longer need to choose between advancing our businesses and promoting sustainability in the workplace and in the environment. We can do all three. In fact, many businesses have been quietly doing this for decades.

By protecting the environment and public health, and instituting better working conditions for employees, we will ensure our economy is stronger for the long-term.

When businesses pay workers better, there is more money to be spent in our economy. Businesses that eliminate toxic chemicals from their products, experience the financial benefits of the increased consumer demand for safer products. Businesses that keep jobs in the US, make our economy and country that much stronger.

The best trade deal will ensure

that countries build their standards even further, speeding us to a global economy built on highroad and sustainability standards.

A good trade bill will also help grow local economies and products made in the United States.

This has historically proven to create more and better jobs for our country. Past trade agreements have pushed too many businesses and jobs overseas, benefiting the largest multi-national corporations at the expense of everyone else.

Small and medium enterprises play such an important role in our economy. We know that money spent with local business stays in those communities longer, creating more economic benefits for local markets. We need to ensure that those local businesses have a level playing field. That is not true under the TPP. Overall, what we need is a trade deal that recognizes there’s more to economic growth than just GDP. There are many costs such as poor health, pollution, and underemployment that GDP doesn’t account for. Such costs are too often transferred to the public meaning an increased financial burden for society, when they should be borne by producers instead.

The TPP, for all its flaws, has given us an opportunity to reach a smarter position on trade that works for everyone. It would be a grave mistake for us to ignore that opportunity.

The continuum of American politics is not a straight line — it is more like a circle. Travel farther out on the right and left, and ultimatel y the sides bend to a common position on an is- By David Sirota sue like taxpayer subsidies for big business. To many progressives, such expenditures are giveaways to the already wealthy.

To many conservatives, they are a free-market-distorting waste of taxpayer resources. Both sides also often criticize the subsidies as an instrument of cronyism and corruption.

In recent years, taxpayer subsidies for corporations have become a huge expense: The New York Times estimates that states and cities now spend more than $80 billion a year on such so-called “incentives.” For the most part, this gravy train has not faced much pressure to slow down.

But now, as the 2016 presidential campaign intensifies, both the left and the right will have a prime opportunity to spotlight its critiques.

That is because one of the most prominent Republican presidential candidates — Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker — has made such subsidies a central part of his public policy agenda. Those subsidies have produced both high-profile scandals and lackluster economic results.

In 2011, Walker created the Wisconsin Economic Development Corporation to give businesses taxpayer loans and grants. Within a few years, state auditors published reports spotlighting “concerns with WEDC’s administration and oversight of its economic development programs and its financial management.”

Specifically, auditors said “WEDC did not

require grant and loan recipients to submit information showing that contractually required jobs were actually created or retained” and also noted that money was handed out “in ways that did not consistently comply” with state law.

Much of the cash flowed to Walker’s political allies. According to a new report by the left-leaning One Wisconsin Institute, 60 percent of the $1.14 billion given out by the WEDC went to firms connected to Walker’s campaign contributors — that includes more than $2.1 million those donors have given Walker’s election campaigns directly.

Had the taxpayer largesse significantly boosted Wisconsin’s economy, perhaps the financial management problems and the allegations of cronyism could be downplayed. But Wisconsin’s economy has suffered under Walker. As Bloomberg News reported, “Wisconsin ranked 33rd among U.S. states in economic health improvement during Walker’s first term” with the state only “a little more than half the 250,000 private-sector jobs that Walker promised during that time.”

Those results, though, have not deterred Walker: His most recent budget proposed to slash $300 million out of higher education funding and spend roughly the same amount to help finance a new arena for the Milwaukee Bucks.

One of the members of the investor group that owns the NBA team is the national finance co-chairman of Walker’s presidential campaign.

Walker pushed the subsidies despite a widely cited 2008 study by researchers at the University of Maryland and University of Alberta, which found the “overwhelming preponderance of evidence” shows “that no tangible economic benefits are generated by these heavily subsidized professional sports facilities.”

Boyfriend reveals that his soul mate died years ago

DEAR ABBY: I have been close to my best friend for three years. A year ago we decided to date. We have a wonderful relationship on almost every level. The only issue I have is that he’s reluctant to open up about his past. He is a very private person, and I know it’s because of his upbringing. This has sparked many debates between us that have ended less than pleasantly.

Recently, he did open up, and when he did, he dropped a bomb. He asked me if I believed in soul mates, and I said yes. Then he told me about how in his past there was a girl he loved very much. Sadly, she died. He said he sees this girl as his soul mate, but he doesn’t think it lessens any of his love for me.

This was the first time he opened up to me. Now that it has sunk in, I’m hurt. I already have self-confidence issues, and I worry that since I am not her, I’m not enough. I can’t live up to a dead woman.

I always thought I could change his closed ways, but now, knowing the cause, I fear there is nothing I can do to help him. Maybe he’s just too messed up for me. I don’t know what to do. Can someone have two soul mates? — NOT HIS SOUL MATE DEAR NOT HIS SOUL MATE: Please do not allow your self-confidence issues to ruin your relationship, because from where I sit, it appears you’re looking for a way to push this man away. So what if he had a romance that ended tragically?

She’s dead — gone! And you’re very much alive. Stop competing with her.

If there is one thing I have learned, it is that we cannot change other people. He doesn’t need your help; he needs someone who will accept him the way he is and love him for it.

DEAR ABBY: I am the treasurer for my high school’s upcoming 50th

reunion. My senior class was large — more than 550 students. My problem is, 280 students have not responded to our monthly emails or newsletters.

It takes a lot of time and effort to put on a reunion. We have been working on it for two years. I realize some classmates hated their senior year. Not all of us had a perfect time.

But would you remind people that a simple yes or no works well?

Frankly, I don’t know why anyone would say no, unless medical or financial issues prevented them from attending. I don’t look like I did at 18, and neither does anyone else. The clique clubs are gone, and the captain of the football team looks just like any other guy. Can you comment? — READY FOR THE REUNION DEAR READY: Yes. There may be other reasons why some graduates don’t wish to attend their high school reunion. They live far away, or there is no one they particularly want to see.

Rather than work yourself into a lather, in your next communication to the graduates, specify that only those who have responded to the invitation can be accommodated “because the committee is making arrangements for which they need an exact head count.” If you don’t hear from someone, do not plan on seeing him or her.

DUBUQUE — Police data show that Dubuque is on pace to see more reports of gunfire this year compared to 2014. Police received two calls of shots fired on Tuesday night, and no arrests have been made in either incident. Officers responded to a report of a person shot in the stomach shortly after 6 p.m. Tuesday. Police then responded to a second report of shots fired around four hours later. The shootings bring 2015’s shots-fired incidents to 20. There were 21 last year.

Iowa regents create new No. 2 job, with higher pay than boss URBANDALE (AP) — The Iowa Board of Regents is creating a new position to run its daily operations, with a base salary that’s more than $85,000 higher than what its executive director can receive by law.

University of Iowa administrator Mark Braun has been named to a one-year interim appointment as chief operating officer for the board, which governs the state’s three public universities.

If approved by the board during a meeting next week, Braun is expected to begin the position Aug. 5 with a $240,000 annual salary. In an unusual arrangement, he’ll remain on the University of Iowa payroll during the interim appointment rather than transferring those costs to the board office.

The board’s executive director, Bob Donley, has a base salary of $154,300, the cap set for the position by state lawmakers. But Donley receives extra compensation in the form of bonuses and deferred compensation.

Board spokesman Josh Lehman

said nothing precludes a subordinate employee from earning a higher salary than Donley. He said the board was fortunate to have Braun, a longtime top aide to departing University of Iowa president Sally Mason.

The new position is part of a restructuring of the 20-employee board office in Urbandale designed to “achieve and maintain greater operational efficiencies,” according to a report given to regents.

While all employees previously reported to Donley, the new structure means chief academic officer Diana Gonzalez and Braun will be responsible for overseeing subordinates in their areas. Gonzalez and Braun will report to Donley.

For about a year, Braun has been leading a wide-ranging review of the universities’ operations to find efficiencies and cost savings. A significant part of Braun’s new position will include overseeing the recommendations, which include restructuring functions such as purchasing, human resources, and information technology.

Interim UI president hopes for short, smooth transition The Associated Press IOWA CITY — Veteran University of Iowa administrator Jean Robillard said Thursday that he hopes his term as interim school president will be short and free of controversy.

Robillard, the university’s vice president for medical affairs since 2007, will take over as the school’s temporary leader Saturday as President Sally Mason steps down

after eight years. He’s also the chairman of a 21-member search committee that is helping identify a slate of finalists to recommend to the Iowa Board of Regents to replace Mason — a position in which he has no interest.

Given his role as interim president, Robillard told reporters that he is “quite vested” in making sure the search is quick and successful and that the leadership transition is smooth. He said he’s con-

fident the process won’t get bogged down in political disputes like one that ended in failure in 2006, when the regents rejected all four candidates that were recommended by the committee and opted to start from scratch before hiring Mason.

“I’ll do everything to not have this happen,” he said.

“Honestly, it’s not even in the cards.”

The committee, which held a brief telephonic meet-

ing Thursday, is beginning to evaluate 44 candidates who have expressed interest in the job. A few more are expected to join the pool before next week, when the committee will meet to identify a slate of eight to 10 finalists to interview in Chicago on Aug. 11-12. Eventually, a number of finalists will come to campus for interviews before the regents make their choice.

Robillard said he hopes the regents name the president in

early September, and the pick can be in place by the end of the calendar year.

He said his goal as interim president is to make sure “the place is prepared for the next president.” A former dean of the UI medical school and a pediatric nephrologist by training, Robillard said he has been quite pleased by what he’s seen from the candidate pool, which will remain confidential until the finalists are named.

Carpet doesn’t have to look dirty to be “dirty”. Well-maintained carpets make a big difference in how your home smells. Carpets act as a giant air filter by attracting dirt and allergens. Eventually, the fibers become “clogged” and lose their ability to attract and hold contaminants. The E.P.A. recommends cleaning your carpets every 6 to 12 months under normal conditions. Even more with pets and children!

Get To Know Newton, Jesse Little and a dash of Japan all wrapped CMB’s Balke is named to academic all-state team up in NASCAR racing

By Jocelyn Sheets Newton Daily News

Five area baseball players received recognition from the Iowa High School Baseball Coaches Association. The IHSBCA announced its 2015 All-District teams and All-Academic Team this week.

Newton High’s senior Tyler Wood was named to the Class 4A All-South Central District second team as a utility player.

In Class 2A, Collins-Maxwell/Baxter junior Brady Stover and Prairie City-Monroe juniors Austin Brown and Clay Cooper were named to the All-Central District second team. Stover and Brown earned honors as pitchers and Cooper as an outfielder.

CMB’s senior Seth Balke was one of 23 players selected to the 2015 Academic AllState first team. Each player was nominated by their coach. Members of the first team will be honored at the All-Star Banquet Aug. 8 at the Eagle Point

Branding is important for sports, businesses, cities — you name it, it’s important.

Have you ever noticed how a race car drivers refer to their car. A driver might say, “the No. 79 D-Bar-J Ranch Ford Mustang was really fast today and I want to thank...” and then rattles off a string of sponsors. Branding.

A little more than a year ago, Newton came up with a branding campaign — “Get To Know Newton.”

The city and Iowa Speedway partnered for the Get To Know Newton 250 in May 2014, which was a NASCAR Xfinity Series race. On that By Jocelyn same weekend in May 2014, the Get Sheets To Know Newton brand went on the Newton Daily NASCAR K&N Pro Series race car News of Jesse Little.

Sports Editor “It’s been a great opportunity for me, being connected with Get To Know Newton,” Little said Thursday. Little competes in the K&N Pro Series and for the fourth time in as many races at Iowa Speedway, Get To Know Newton is on Little’s race car.

Little is a third-generation NASCAR driver. The 18-year-old has been named to the 2014-15 and 2015-16 NASCAR Next Class of young drivers. He was the 2013 Sunoco Rookie of the Year in the K&N Pro Series East Division.

A new twist for Little and the Get To Know Newton brand comes this weekend at Iowa Speedway’s #ThanksKenny 150. Hattori Racing Little Enterprises and team owner Shige Hattori have signed Little to drive the No. 1 Yazaki Toyota Camry in Friday’s K&N Pro Series East/ West race here in Newton.

“Jesse is a talented young driver and we’re looking forward to have him drive our HRE No. 1 Yazaki Toyota Camry this weekend at Iowa Speedway,” Hattori said in a news release.

Little, who began racing go-karts when he was 4, grew up in the sport and knows about branding and marketing.

“As a young driver, you’re putting yourself out there to attract sponsorships. Drivers are 100 percent of a marketing product. Branding is the main engine that runs the sport. There is a reason so many Fortune 500 companies are involved with NASCAR,” Little said. “They can get their company out there in more places than in other sports — drivers, cars, teams, tracks.”

Chiefs’ Eric Berry back at practice after cancer fight ST. JOSEPH, Mo. (AP) — There was a moment in the early stages of chemotherapy when Eric Berry was having breakfast with his father, and the enormity of what faced him was so great that he broke down and cried.

For 30 minutes, one of the toughest players on the Kansas City Chiefs wept.

Then, he resolved to beat cancer.

Eight months later, Berry walked triumphantly onto the practice fields at Missouri Western State University, joining rookies and select veterans Wednesday for the start of training camp.

Six merciless rounds of draining, debilitating drugs had rid his body of Hodgkin’s lymphoma, but they had also stoked the passion that Berry still harbors

Ten area players receive HOIC baseball honors

By Troy Hyde Newton Daily News Clay Cooper made a gigantic improvement at the plate this season for the Prairie City-Monroe baseball team.

Cooper hit .271 and had an on base percentage of .374 during his sophomore campaign for the Mustangs.

Those numbers improved to .463 and .533, respectively, this season and his efforts earned him a first-team outfielder nod as the Heart of Iowa Conference teams were released.

A total of 10 area players landed on one of the three HOIC teams.

Besides Cooper, the Mustangs also had senior catcher Jerod DeVries on the second team, while senior Connor Warrick and junior Austin Brown were both honorable mention selections.

Junior Brady Stover and senior Seth Balke were both second-team picks for Collins-Maxwell/Baxter, while sophomores Hunter McWhirter and Tucker Maxwell were honorable mention picks for the Raiders.

Colfax-Mingo had two players land on the honorable mention team — sophomore Adam Teed and freshman Misha Seebeck.

Cooper’s .463 average was second in the conference and the .533 onbase percentage was fifth. The junior also had seven doubles, 24 RBIs and eight stolen bases. He had just one error in center field and his fielding percentage of .976 led the Mustangs.

DeVries, a second-team catcher, hit .242 and had nine RBIs. He had 11 assists, 88 putouts and threw out seven runners attempting to steal a base.

after going 5-2 with one save. He had an earned run average of 1.58 with 91 strikeouts in only 44 1/3 innings pitched. Opposing teams hit only .171 against the South Dakota State commit and Stover had eight assists in center field.

Balke, a second-team infielder, was second on the team in batting at .346, had an OBP of .414 and scored a team-high 16 runs. He had eight steals, too. He had a .958 fielding percentage with only three errors and 46 assists.

Brown was PCM’s best pitcher. He was 4-3 with an ERA of 1.11. The junior lefty fanned 40 and walked only 14 in 38 innings. Brown also hit .325, had an OBP of .441 and drove in 13

runs.

Warrick batted .265 but reached base more than 53 percent of the time partly because of 19 walks and nine hit by pitches. He scored 13 runs.

McWhirter led CMB in hitting (.347), OBP (.443) and walks (10) and tied for second in walks with 13. He led the Raiders in fielding percentage at .974 and he threw out five runners trying to steal a base.

Maxwell had a CMB-best 11 RBIs and two home runs. He walked a team-high 10 times.

Seebeck hit .244 for the Tigerhawks and scored seven runs. His fielding percentage was .974. Teed scored eight runs, stole 10 bases and had a fielding percentage of .949.

CMB finished 10-15 overall and went 6-10 in HOIC play. PCM was 9-17 overall and 4-11 in league play.

Colfax-Mingo was 5-23 overall and 0-18 in the HOIC. Only two players were unanimously voted to the all-HOIC first team.

Gilbert’s Nick Day led the league in hitting (.492) and runs scored (46) and also stole 18 bases. Gilbert’s Jared Geschiedler blasted five home runs and drove in 48.

Gilbert won the conference with a 17-1 record. Greene County and Saydel both went 14-4.

Pressbox Continued from Page 1B Finding the niche, you as a driver fits together with products is important according to Little.

“Get To Know Newton was my first non-racing sponsorship. We get to bring a non-racing name to the track. We spotlight it when we come to Iowa Speedway, because it makes sense. Now, this weekend, I have another incredible opportunity with Hattori Racing,” Little said.

HRE has assembled a crew featuring six college students from Toyota Technical College in Japan. The students, who are from the campuses in Tokyo, Kobe and Nagoya, have been in North Carolina since July 20 attending classes at the NASCAR Technical Institute, including pit crew training, and working at the HRE shop to prepare for this weekend’s activities — where they’ll make all the adjustments during the halfway break in the race.

“This is a unique partnership for us. Shige Hattori is a team owner in North Carolina and he brings the students from the Toyota Technical Colleges here. This gives them a real experience to apply what they’ve learned and find out about NASCAR racing,” Little said.

“It’s been cool working with these students. I have the same crew as I had in May here in Iowa. The car is still a K&N car, so I don’t see any problems getting into a new car for the race Friday. Working with the Japanese students has been fun and

The days he didn’t want to get out of bed. The days he struggled to choke down food, all of it tasteless. The seemingly endless trips to the hospital for each round of treatment.

“In the beginning it was hard, it really was,” James Berry said. “Those possibilities go through your mind — ‘What if he can’t play again?’ You think of those types of things, but then you kick those to the side.

And when you looked at Eric you said, ‘This guy is a fighter.’”

Such a fighter that he chose to receive treatment through an IV rather than a PICC line, a semi-permanent catheter that would have prevented him from training.

Between each round of chemo, Berry would squeeze in 10 to 12 workouts, sometimes struggling just to do five push-ups. But he never lost sight of an audacious goal: Be back with the Chiefs by the time their season opens Sept.

“Everybody wants you to be strong in this situation,” Berry

Little said he has been busy the past couple of days in Iowa. He has been doing interviews and making personal appearances, which included an autograph session at Newton’s HyVee Thursday afternoon.

“Jesse has been a great ambassador for Get To Know Newton,” said Craig Armstrong, City of Newton development specialist and family friend of Little’s. “He talks up the city of Newton, the schools and the businesses when he travels. Jesse has done that on his own and we’re fortunate to have him as part of our campaign.”

Armstrong and Little’s father, Chad, who was an accomplished race car driver and is the managing director of technical inspection/officiating of the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series. Armstrong said he and Little’s dad have been friends for more than 30 years, going back to Chad Little’s racing days on the west coast and Armstrong running Portland Speedway.

“I love Newton. It is a great community and being a part of Get To Know Newton, I’ve met a lot of great people here,” Little said. “This is the track I’ve visited the most in my racing career, and I’m always excited to compete at Iowa Speedway.”

Little’s racing has been scaled back a bit in 2015. He said he’s run in six to eight races and two of those have been at Iowa.

“I believe I’m ready to take the next step in my racing career. I’d like to have the opportunity to compete in

said, “but you can’t be strong every day. If you want to be mad today, be mad. If you want to be sad, be sad. But the thing is, don’t stay that way.

Get it out of your system and go back to work.”

Berry passed a battery of tests before he was cleared to practice late Tuesday, but it remains unclear when he’ll fully participate in practice. Chiefs trainer Rick Burkholder said Berry will be monitored constantly, especially during the early portion of camp.

Veterans report Friday. The first full-squad workout is Saturday.

“One of the things Eric and I talked about was just being honest with us about how you’re feeling out here,” coach Andy Reid said, “and sometimes that’s hard for a player to do, especially with his makeup.

He’s been great with that up to this point and I think that will continue through.”

After all, he’s in a much better place than he was eight months ago.

The three-time Pro Bowler first knew something was amiss in November, when he felt oddly out of breath after a couple of games.

When things got worse

the truck series, which is a stepping stone from the K&N Series to the Xfinity Series. No. I wouldn’t turn down an opportunity to drive in the Xfinity Series,” he said with a smile.

“I’m getting my name out there, and showing I’m marketable. You do that also through performing well on the track.”

Little is 22nd in the K&N East driver standings. He was fourth at Iowa in May’s race. Little was the pole winner in the Aug. 2014 race at Iowa and finished 10th.

“I’m confident about being in the No. 1 Yazaki Toyota Camry Friday.

It’s business as usual for me as this is going to be a very competitive race — it is always when the East takes on the West — and I’m going out there to win the race,” he said.

Little graduated from high school in June. He plans to attend University of North Carolina-Charlotte in the fall.

“I know I won’t be racing forever.

My dad, as most parents are, is big on education. He grew up racing, and went four years to Washington State University and three more years to Gonzaga for a law degree. I have no excuses to use in not going to college,” Little said. “I love math. I plan to pursue a degree in finance or business.”

Branding — I’d say Little has a good handle on branding himself as a NASCAR driver and as a young man with a future, whether in racing or business.

during a game against Oakland, Berry was put through a series of tests that revealed a mass in his chest. The diagnosis was Hodgkin’s lymphoma, a treatable form of cancer that affects about 9,000 people in the U.S. each year.

His treatment began Dec. 10 at Emory University’s Winship Cancer Institute, near his home in Atlanta.

And it wasn’t easy: “It literally feels like you’re dying,” Berry recalled, “but you’re not really battling chemo, you’re battling yourself the whole time. It was me versus me.”

The final round of treatment was May 13, followed by a month of recovery.

“He tolerated chemotherapy extremely well,” said Dr. Christopher R. Flowers, who directs the cancer institute’s lymphoma program. “He achieved a complete response to treatment.”

On June 22, a follow-up PET scan showed Berry was cancer-free.

The Chiefs had just finished their mandatory minicamp, so he headed to Florida, where he trained with teammates.

Then last week, Berry headed back to Kansas City for another round of testing to make sure he was in football condition.

“It was a battle, every day, to the point where I had to set goals to get out of bed,” he said. “But I had a great support system, between my mom and dad being in the trenches with me, day in and day out, making sure I had everything I needed.”

The Chiefs are cautiously optimistic Berry will be ready for the regular season, and such a rapid return would not be without precedent: Reid said they looked at case studies involving other athletes, such as Mario Lemieux, in deciding how to proceed.

The Hall of Fame hockey player was diagnosed with Hodgkin’s lymphoma in 1993, went through a similar course of treatment and returned to finish his career with the Pittsburgh Penguins.

There is plenty of work ahead for Berry.

But on a warm, humid morning in northwest Missouri, as he trotted out of the locker room, he had already surpassed nearly all expectations.

“At the beginning, you kind of put football aside. Your mind goes to, ‘Hey, we’re hoping and praying he can be healthy and live a good life,’” Reid said. “Anything else is icing on the cake.”

Iowa-Iowa State annual hoops game changed for TV coverage AMES (AP) — Officials in Ames say the Iowa-Iowa State men’s basketball game has been rescheduled to accommodate national television coverage.

The game has been moved up a day, to Dec. 10. The start time and network will be announced later.

It will be Cyclone head coach Steve Prohm’s first game against the in-state rival Hawkeyes.

Prohm has been hired to replace Fred Hoiberg, who’s been hired to coach the NBA’s Chicago Bulls.

Pitching ace Price goes to Toronto DETROIT (AP) — Toronto acquired All-Star left-hander David Price from the Detroit Tigers on Thursday, the second major move in less than a week by the Blue Jays as they chase their first postseason appearance since 1993.

After obtaining slugging shortstop Troy Tulowitzki from Colorado, the Blue Jays tried to shore up their rotation by adding Price, likely the top remaining starting pitcher on the market.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (July 31). It will be a year marked by fascination. Prioritize the people, places and interests that spark your curiosity. In August, this spark will turn into a fire. You’ll expand your mind through film, books and conversation. Your earning

power will be the next thing to expand. Cancer and Aquarius people adore you. December shows you holding hands while crossing a finish line. Your lucky numbers are: 6, 30, 2, 48 and 32.

ARIES (March 21-April 19).

Having dealt with uncertainty before, you are now more able to deal with uncertainty in a different area of life. This is the ability that makes you a superhuman!

TAURUS (April 20-May 20).

You’ve made indelible memories in the mind of another without trying at all. So why start trying now? Perhaps the

Carpe blue moon! It’s just the excuse you needed to do the scary thing you’ve long wanted to do. You know, the thing that puts butterflies in your belly and ties your thoughts in knots.

Just because you now want to run in the opposite direction doesn’t mean you should. In fact, the blue moon insists you move forward with velocity.

work you do to make an impression would best be applied to your own enjoyment.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21).

You’re so capable that lazy people may try to rely on you for everything they need.

That’s why saying “no” is a sanity saver. Happiness is doing only what you really want to do.

CANCER (June 22-July 22).

Rare and magical happenings will touch your personal life.

Preserve the sacred nature of this by refusing to overanalyze or even talk very much about it.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). There are times when you grow so world-weary that you believe you’ve seen it all. That’s what

makes days like today so special -- the grandeur of the undiscovered unfolds before you.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22).

Sometimes the game changes after you make a move, but today it changes before you make the move. So hang back, watch the other players, stay aware, and be ready to act on opportunity.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23).

Another lovely thing about you is that when people aren’t treating you right, you tend to look at your own behavior first. Did you misstep? Is there something you could have done differently? This is the winner’s way.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). There’s nothing quite so inspiring as seeing others doing something similar to what you’d like to be doing (but not nearly as well as you could do it).

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Seek not fame or fortune, as they bring only fleeting pride compared to the more lasting confidence that comes with building your character. Strive instead to become better, wiser and more loving.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Once you put your mind to it, you’re unstoppable. So the question is: How do you put your mind to it? Visuals help. Inspiring role models help. High stakes help. Assign

2002 GRAY, extended cab Chevy Silverado. Fully loaded with towing package, leather, heated seats, automatic seats, mirrors, etc. 207k miles and some very minor dents/scratches. Engine runs perfect.

Recently fully detailed and new battery. $7,000 OBO. Contact Cody if interested at 515-681-1373 rewards and consequences.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Wealth flows to those who provide great value to others.

It also flows to those who manipulate and enslave others, though, so keep your eyes open. Don’t empower evil by buying into it.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20).

The luck that drops into your world is a magic key that will get you out of your current bind with a twist and a click.

Accept the cosmic gift, say thank you, and move along!
