CVB sees increase of visitors to Newton

By Jamee A. Pierson Newton Daily News

industry if elected president, and said methamphetamine is something she’s heard about in Iowa “from Davenport all the way to Council Bluffs.”

Clinton has focused on health care, especially for women, during her campaign, and she touched on a few health topics Sunday. She spent a few moments addressing prescription costs, she supports the Affordable Care Act, she supports Planned Parenthood and she said she was the first candidate to develop a policy on autism.

The question topics from the audience ranged

Increased traffic at summer events shines an even brighter light on the efforts of the Convention and Visitors Bureau and the City of Newton to attract more people to the community.

“We have seen an increase in hotel/motel tax revenue from the last fiscal year of just more than 6.5 percent. Their numbers are up significantly this year, even as much a 15 percent each month over last year,” CVB Executive Director LinBacon da Bacon said. “We have a lot going on here. We have some really great attractions here that bring a lot of people to our community.”

Visitors from across the country had a chance to do a variety of activities including catching a race, taking part in Newton Fest and visiting a local mainstay, Maytag Dairy Farm.

The Iowa Speedway clearly brings the largest amount of tourists into the community, Bacon said. Through visitor guides at the Get to Know Newton booth, at all hotels and on HIRTA buses and other advertising, the CVB reaches the more than 20,000 people that attend race weekends.

“Maytag Dairy farms has been very surprised. When I was talking with them they couldn’t believe the increase in traffic, especially after the Indy race,” Bacon said.

A new event, Newton Fest, helped capitalize on the tourists that planned on attending the annual Iowa Sculpture Festival and Alumi weekend.

“The Newton Fest, Iowa Sculpture Festival and Alumni weekend brought a lot of people in. The Newton Fest part of it was something that was really great to capture the audience that was coming to the sculpture festival and the alumni,” Bacon said.

Clinton draws a crowd at Newton campaign event

Democratic presidential front-runner met with supporters at coffee shop

By Jason W. Brooks Newton Daily News Even warm temperatures, a small venue, tight security and a three-day weekend couldn’t keep approximately 300 people from showing up and hearing a major Democratic presidential candidate speak Sunday afternoon in Newton.

Former First Lady, U.S. senator and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton made a 70-minute appearance at a cam-

paign event at Uncle Nancy’s Coffee House and Eatery. Clinton, the front-runner in many Democratic presidential campaign polls, spoke to and took questions from about 100 people who were allowed inside the small confines of Uncle Nancy’s, with the rest allowed to stand in the alley on the east side of the building, where audio was available.

Clinton, who met with AFSCME union representatives in a pri-

vate meeting at the Des Moines Area Community College Newton Campus first, entered Uncle Nancy’s to a roar of applause. She was introduced by Liz Mueller, Clinton’s paid staff organizer for Jasper County and parts of other nearby counties, and she touched on several topics during her initial 20-minute talk.

The candidate pointed out how her husband, Bill Clinton, left office with a budget surplus, and talked about the importance of electing Democrats in order to get the nation back on the right track. She said she wanted to add more to the renewable energy

In Brief

81 percent state corn in excellent condition, Iowa Ag secretary says

United States Department of Agriculture This recently released USDA Census of Agriculture predictive map shows which states are likely to have the highest percentage of acres changing hands within the next five years. Iowa and much of the rest of the Midwest is in the 9 percent category, which could mean big changes to how much land is Iowa-owned.

Survey shows 9 percent of Midwest land to change hands USDA predicts far west will have higher transaction rates

By Jason W. Brooks Newton Daily News The USDA’s National Agricultural Statistics Service recently released findings from a national survey of agricultural landowners conducted earlier this year, and the results show nearly one-tenth of Iowa land could belong to new owners five years from now.

Much of Iowa’s farmland is owned by individuals or entities based in other states, and rented or leased to Iowa farmers and ranchers. However, if projections are accurate, about 9 percent of land in Iowa and some surrounding states could be involved in transactions within the next five years — which could lead to fewer larger cooperate farms or more smaller privately-run farms.

Some of these transactions allow century farms — which have been with the same family for more than 100 years — and 150-year heritage family farms to remain in the hands of longtime farm families. Some of this land is rented out to others to farm, but this keeps the U.S. from losing agricultural land to competing international cooperate pressures.

The survey, called the 2014 Tenure, Ownership and Transition of Agricultural Land (TOTAL) survey, tells farmers a great deal about the 39 percent of farmland — some

354 million acres — that land owners rent out for agricultural purposes.

Almost half of the land transfer will take place through trust arrangements, the survey revealed.

The data is one of the largest packages of agricultural landownership information NASS has provided since conducting a similar survey in 1999. The most recent Census of Agriculture shows the U.S. has more than 900 million acres of farmland, which is about twofifths of all American land.

These “acres rented out,” as they are called, are owned both by farmers who rent them to other farmers and ranchers and non-farming landlords, who may be individuals or participants in a partnership, trust, corporation or other arrangement. Farming landlords account for 20 percent of acres rented out, and non-farming landlords account for 80 percent.

The Midwest’s 9 percent anticipated transaction rate is slightly less than the 11 percent of land expected to change hands in the western plains and along the west coast. The Appalachians are the lowest at 6 percent predicted transferring; rugged mountain acreage doesn’t change hands as often as versatile, open ranch or farm expanses.

The total value of the land

rented out (including the buildings on the land) was $1.1 trillion in 2014, according to the TOTAL survey.

Landlords collectively received about $31.2 billion in rental payments against expenses of $9.2 billion, which puts their expenses (on average) at less than 30 percent of the rent received.

The majority of rented-out land is fully paid for without in-progress mortgages or loans, the study revealed. This was true for both farming and non-farming landlords.

The rented agricultural land is used for crops with 63 percent of the acres, while about 34 percent was used as pasture for livestock (the rest was buildings, ditches, ponds, etc.)

Landlords, in a few cases, also lease or sell various rights, including mineral rights, recreational rights, development rights and wind rights, especially in western mountain states that don’t tend to have the widespread fertile planting soil found in the Midwest.

Nationwide, about 10 percent of all U.S. farmland, or 91.5 million acres, is expected to transfer to new ownership in the next five years.

NASS conducted the TOTAL survey in partnership with USDA’s Economic Research Service, which plans to use the data in a wide range of upcoming economic studies.

DAILY NEWS Where to go when you need to know

DES MOINES — Iowa Secretary of Agriculture Bill Northey commented Monday on the Iowa Crops and Weather report released by the USDA National Agricultural Statistical Service.

“The heavy rains that rolled through North-central Iowa late last week caused flash-flooding and created real challenges for farmers and communities.

But, in general crops continue to move towards maturity and remain in pretty good condition with 81 percent of corn and 76 percent of beans rated good to excellent,” Northey said.

The report summary follows: Already saturated fields along with heavy rains on Friday limited fieldwork in the State to 3.9 days suitable for fieldwork for the week ending Sept. 7, according to the USDA, National Agricultural Statistics Service. Activities for the week included cutting hay and silage, as well as harvesting oats. Scattered reports of sudden death syndrome and white mold in soybean fields were received.

Heavy rains in central Iowa raised topsoil and subsoil surplus moisture levels up 13 and 12 percentage points to 28 and 30 percent, respectively.

Ninety-five percent of the corn crop reached the dough stage or beyond, with 57 percent dented or beyond, three days ahead of last year, but three days behind the five-year average. Three percent of the corn crop was reported as being mature. Corn condition rated 81 percent good to excellent. Ninety-five percent of soybeans were setting pods or beyond, while 11 percent of soybeans were turning color, two days ahead of 2014, but two days behind normal. Soybeans dropping leaves were also reported this week by a few reporters. Soybean condition rated 76 percent good to excellent. Oats harvested for grain or seed was virtually complete this week.

The second cutting of alfalfa hay was nearing completion, while the third cutting of alfalfa hay was 67 percent complete, five days behind average. Pasture condition rated 66 percent good to excellent. Livestock conditions were reported as generally good, although muddy lots were reported in some areas.

ILF Grassland Management Field Day scheduled for Sept. 17 AMES — Iowa Learning Farms, along with the Cooper Creek Watershed Project, will host a field day from 5 to 6:30 p.m. Sept. 17 at Moore Angus Farms, rural Melrose.

The field day will focus on grazing and grassland management. Iowa State University Extension and Outreach Beef Specialist Joe Sellers will discuss improved grazing managements impact on soil erosion and water quality and the benefits of rotational grazing in cow-calf operations. Craig Foster, from Natural Resources Conservation Service, will discuss the importance of soil health and what cost share programs are available for grazers. Host farmer Charles Moore will talk about his cattle grazing practices on his farm. The Iowa Learning Farms rainfall simulator will be demonstrated, and Cooper Creek Watershed Project coordinator Charlotte Head will provide updates on the project.

The field day is free and open to the public, but an RSVP is recommended.

To be included in the meal count, contact Iowa Learning Farms by Thursday at 515-294-8912, or email ilf@iastate.edu.

The field day is at Moore Angus Farms, 14527 Highway J18, Melrose. From Moravia, go west on County Road J18 for approximately nine miles. The farm will be on the south side of the road.

Local News Continued from Page 1A town sometime during the weekend. The All Class Reunion had more than1,000 in attendance and the sculpture festival tallied 700 guests.

Additional events such as the special sensory movies at the Capitol II Theatre, Thunder Nites and Newton Kart Klub events drew in a surprising amount of patrons and helped diversify the crowd that visited Newton.

“The Fourth of July is, of course, a really big weekend here. Between the morning activities and everything that goes on at Agnes Patterson Park a lot of people are coming into town,” Bacon said.

With summer winding down, Bacon said there are plenty of events coming in the fall to fill the calender.

Later this month, the River to River Retro Road Trip group will be making an over-

night stop in town. Along with Weekend Pit Stop and DB Kustomz, the 100 plus road trippers will be parking their vehicles at Hawkeye Stages and put them on display for local car lovers to look at as well as enjoy music, food and a good time.

In October, the Miss USA and Miss Teen USA competition will once again take place, bringing hundreds of visitors to stay for the long weekend of pageant events.

The winners will then move onto the Miss USA and Miss Teen USA national competition.

Wrapping up Thanksgiving weekend, the annual lighting of the Jasper County Courthouse and lighted Christmas Parade will be held on Friday following the holiday. The lighting of the courthouse and downtown square will be followed by the parade along with food, carriage rides and a visit by Santa.

Jamee A. Pierson/Daily News The Fourth of July weekend always brings a big crowd to Newton to enjoy the morning parade and activities downtown through to evening entertainment and fireworks at Agnes Patterson Park.

Finally, adding to the holiday festivities is the Holiday Tour of Homes by the Dollars for Scholars Committee on Dec. 5. The event that brings groups to several homes around the communi-

ty is also a great opportunity for visitors and locals alike to see everything that Newton has to offer.

“When you go around and look at those houses and its on a Saturday, if the stores are

“I felt like I was excluded,” Van De Krol said. “And I feel like a grass-roots campaign needs to acknowledge the field volunteers better, with more communication, and maybe bigger venues for candidates such as Hillary.

But the turnout was great, and I appreciate everyone who came out in the heat like this. It shows Democrats are still a lively bunch in the county.”

Clinton acknowledged an African-American male is more likely to be arrested and convicted for an offense, and said all of society is responsible for resolving the discrepancy, rather than simply encouraging police reform.

Keeping Me on My Toes

The night before preschool

By Jamee A. Pierson Staff Writer

www.newtondailynews.com | Tuesday | Sept. 8, 2015

Because of the holiday, I am sitting at home writing my column for this week. I have just put two little girls to bed, hoping they fall asleep soon in preparation for their first day of school.

We had kind of a rocky weekend with the stomach flu making its way through the house. My youngest got it the worst, as usual, with the illness spanning three days.

Luckily, she was finally feeling better Monday so I think we are good to go for the first day of school. My oldest never got it full on, thankfully, so when morning gets here we will start preparing for another first.

We have been talking about

the first day of school for the last several weeks. Both of the girls had their in-home visits from their teachers and attended the open house for their classes.

They were both outgoing and played with the kids in their class, calming some of the fears I always have as a parent.

Having just turned three, my youngest will be one of the youngest in her class. I have always felt she was ready to go to preschool. It is only two days a week for three hours each.

I know she will be excited but even as I am writing this the emotions start to come with sending my baby to

school for the first time. My oldest loves school. She got upset last year when should couldn’t go to school all of the time.

I am hoping my youngest takes to school like that but I really just hope she has fun and learns a little along the way. We had a play date with a couple girls that she will go to school with and talked about her teacher often, so hopefully she will feel comfortable.

Mom on the other hand will do her best to not get tearful. I did pretty good last year, only tearing up as I was leaving the room. I knew she was in good hands and ready to go, but it is always hard leaving them at a new place for the first time.

We prepared for the first day of school, shopping for clothes, supplies and the all important backpack (which both girls got matching kitty backpacks.) They took a bath so they are squeaky clean and we read their new story, “The Night Before Preschool,” a play off of the “The Night Before Christmas.”

I know it will be an awesome year, and I am so excited for them to learn, grow and make new friends along the way. I’m just hoping I can keep it together sending two off in one day.

Good news for Iowans looking to build their skills To build a skilled workforce and strong economy, the state must be a good partner to Iowa’s 15 community colleges and local businesses.

That’s why we’re continuing our investment this year in opportunities for job training, apprenticeships, high school comple- By Chaz Allen tion, skills certi- Iowa Senator fication and credentials that will put more Iowans on the path to good jobs.

Iowa has rebounded better than most states from the national recession, but too many people remain unemployed. The gap between the technical skills that workers have and those needed by today’s cutting edge businesses continues to grow.

According to a new Pathways to Prosperity report from the Council of State Governments,

thousands of well-paying jobs are available in Iowa but workers are not prepared to fill them.

The nonpartisan Council of State Governments praises Iowa’s efforts to prepare skilled workers. Their Pathways to Prosperity report highlights initiatives like Elevate Iowa, which is expanding training at our community colleges in such fields as welding and industrial maintenance, with special emphasis on helping the underemployed, veterans and minorities.

In addition, Future Ready Iowa is focusing on ways to better align education and job-training initiatives to close the skills gap and meet future employer needs.

It’s getting off the ground with a $170,000 National Governors Association grant. The money will help Iowa continue innovative programs and collaborations to build a skilled workforce ready to take on local job openings.

What’s more: this summer, the state of Iowa was awarded

more than $5 million through the U.S. Department of Labor to develop innovative job-training programs focused on regional needs. The goal is to connect unemployed Iowans to on-the-job training, apprenticeships, career planning and more.

To cap it all off, Iowa Workforce Development recently unveiled a new easy-to-navigate website at www.iowaworkforcedevelopment.gov. It’s customer focused with content organized so that visitors can quickly and easily find what they’re looking for, including skills assessments and training opportunities.

Let me tell you the story of a street.

It’s a humble street, a city street, a potholed street, a street which is very nearly paved w i t h illegally obt a i n e d By Marc Dion Pe r c o cet, a street where Christmas finds the roofs of the houses carrying a light coat of heroin.

You will find frightened old people on the street. They moved in back when it was working class, before the factories went away. You will also find the permanently unemployed, the provably disabled, the faking it disabled, the welfare mothers and some gang members. The neighborhood speaks several languages. There is a Wal-Mart on the site once occupied by a huge upholstery factory that paid its workers about $15 an hour.

There’s another abandoned factory that used to be a pigment and dye factory, and another one that housed a garment plant. The former pigment and dye place is empty. The former garment factory now hosts a store that sells discount candy and a store selling window frames and doors.

There is a dollar store on the street and a cutrate grocery store and a lot of houses, most of them multifamily.

There’s a liquor store, as there must be in all poor neighborhoods Way up at the top of the street there’s a single story, several building-ed housing project for the elderly, a grade school, a used car lot and a cemetery. It’s the world in miniature, or at least the world of the poor in miniature.

It’s the kind of street you come back to after a hitch in the military

or a five-year bit in prison.

Due to the vagaries of urban non-planning in my hometown, the street has two names.

Up at the top, it’s called “Quarry Street,” because there used to be a granite quarry on that end of the street. They filled that in when they built the project for the old people.

The poorer end of the street is called “Quequechan Street.

The word “quequechan” is Native-American. It means “falling water.”

There was a small river here, which was paved over in the 19th century.

If you drive down Quarry Street, you go past the nicely kept old people’s project, past some neatly sided houses and down to an intersection with a pizza place, a Chinese takeout joint and a convenience store. After the intersection, the neighborhood becomes increasingly seedy as it becomes Quequehan Street. The Wal-Mart is a bright blot of light, but there are purse snatchings in the parking lot all the time and the dope dealers linger on the cracked sidewalks, waiting for the cars from the suburbs to pull to the curb.

It’s an American street, with every American malaise, from OxyContin to the stunned incomprehension of people who no longer have the kind of jobs their family members had for generations.

So, maybe you shouldn’t get too upset about the name of a mountain in Alaska, about giving it back its Native-American name.

Because, to tell you the truth, sometimes it doesn’t help much.

FAMILY CIRCUS

www.newtondailynews.com | Tuesday | Sept. 8, 2015

Mom’s surprise pregnancy is not pleasant one for her girls DEAR ABBY: I am 44 and my husband of 20 years is 48. On a recent second honeymoon trip to Sweden, I became pregnant. We already have two beautiful, intelligent daughters, 17 and 14. One started university this fall while the other’s a high school sophomore.

My problem is not so much the high-risk pregnancy, but rather that both of my girls strongly oppose the idea of us keeping the baby. Not only were they not thrilled when I broke the news to them, but they also cried.

My younger daughter is now giving me the cold shoulder. She doesn’t like change and thinks having a sibling will disrupt our life. My older girl said she is glad she will be at the university so she won’t have to have anything to do with the baby.

I am deeply hurt by their reactions.

I need help to talk to them. Please give me some advice. — EXPECTING IN CANADA DEAR EXPECTING: Far more important than how your immature and self-centered daughters feel about your pregnancy is how you and your husband feel about it. Teenagers don’t like to consider their parents as sexual beings, which may be part of the reason for their reaction.

Not knowing your girls, I’m not sure what they need to hear other than you love them and hope at some point they will become mature enough to accept the situation. But do not allow them to put you on the defensive. You don’t owe them an apology. As a matter of fact, they owe you and their father one.

DEAR ABBY: My mother-in-law was in a car accident a few months ago and her car was totaled. Since then, my husband takes her food shopping and wherever else she has to go. She has made no effort to buy a new car.

She’s content with calling him for every need.

She wasn’t injured and she isn’t disabled. If she doesn’t want to do some-

thing, her excuse is, “I’m an old lady. I can’t do it.” It’s annoying. She doesn’t come visit or call to check on us. She makes us feel like our family has to do everything for her — while she claims she’s “independent.”

This has been an issue for a while and I’m sick of it. I suggested she do her grocery shopping online and have it delivered to her house. Once again, she gave the same excuse.

I think she needs a man so I can have my husband back. What do you think? — OVER IT IN PHILADELPHIA DEAR OVER IT: From the tone of your last remark it’s clear you and your mother-in-law aren’t close and probably never were. Philadelphia has a very large transit system. Surely there is alternate transportation for her — buses, taxis, Uber and Lyft come to mind. If she was so traumatized by the accident that she’s afraid to get behind the wheel again, she may need a therapist to overcome it.

Whatever the reason, this won’t stop until you and your husband quit enabling her. Give her a list of what’s available and “suggest” she use it the next time she calls wanting a ride. If she needs groceries, offer to order them online for her yourself if she isn’t computer literate. And your husband should also offer to help her find a new car.

Loebsack ‘takes himself to work’ at Skiff Congressman given tour of many hospital elements

By Jason W. Brooks Newton Daily News “Can you listen to Led Zeppelin in there?”

That’s what U.S. Rep. Dave Loebsack asked when he was shown an MRI suite during Friday’s visit to Skiff Medical Center. He was shown the suite

by Skiff staff members as part of what was billed as “Take Your Congressman to Work Day,” where Loebsack shadowed a couple of workers at their jobs.

Loebsack joked about how he holds a doctoral degree that holds little weight in a hospital.

“I’m technically a doctor, but I’m a Ph.D. (in political science) — not an MD,” Loebsack said. “But I am now on the Energy & Commerce Committee, which oversees hospitals, among much else.”

Skiff was one of two scheduled stops for Loebsack on Friday, with the other in Knoxville where

Jason W. Brooks/Daily News U.S. Rep. Dave Loebsack appeared at Skiff Medical Center on Friday as part of “Take Your Congressman to Work Day.” Loebsack, left, was taken on a tour of Skiff departments by the hospital’s CEO, Bret Altman, center, and Chief Clinical Officer Sonja Ranck, right.

he was scheduled to job shadow with the Marion County Sheriff ’s Office.

Sonja Ranck, Skiff ’s chief clinical officer, and Skiff CEO Brett Altman toured many parts of the hospital with Loebsack.

He was taken on a tour of several Skiff departments and given descriptions of some of the functions of recently-added technology, speaking briefly with staff in radiology, the emergency department, the obstetrics unit and more.

Loebsack talked to some patients as well. One of the patients he spoke with was Mildred McFate, 94, who was at Skiff getting treatment for pneumonia.

One of the more interesting conversations Loebsack had Friday was with Dr. Bruce St. Amour, who told Loebsack about issues where he would like the Veterans Administration to “play nice in the sandbox.”

Loebsack said getting more graduate-level med-

ical education programs going in Iowa is a priority.

The Affordable Care Act has put more patients in a position to seek medical services and placed an even greater burden on the small number of doctors in the U.S. Altman and Ranck pointed out how various parts of the hospital are utilized.

Altman pointed out the financial advantage Skiff might have in expanding treatments in the years ahead, as Mercy Medical Center’s acquisition of Skiff was completed July 1.

“Being a small independent hospital is nice, but it’s almost financially impossible anymore,” Altman said.

After Loebsack departed, Altman praised the fifth-term Congressman for his knowledge of the medical field.

“He understands how hospitals have to do things, better than most people do,” Altman said.

Marshalltown woman’s body found in Tama County in 1973 Case remains a mystery

By John Speer MONTOUR — Halloween day, Oct. 31, 1973, was typical of many in late fall in Iowa — cold, overcast and threatening rain.

But it also included the discovery of the body of Helen Mae Bown, 61, of Marshalltown, on the bank of the Iowa River northwest of Montour in Tama County. Her body was found that day by Iowa Division of Criminal Investigation agents. Bown, a widow, had been reported missing to Marshalltown police on Oct. 7.

The cause of Bown’s death was listed as drowning but the circumstances never revealed.

Those on the scene of the discovery in 1973 included Tama and Marshall county sheriff ’s officers, Marshalltown police, agents of the then-named Iowa Bureau of Criminal Investigation, Tama County Medical Examiner Dr. C.W. Maplethorpe, as was Tama County Attorney Jared Bauch.

Bauch said recently, “I remember the case and the scene. Ms. Bown had been in the water several days. As I recall, there was an idea that she had been drinking quite a bit at the time

John Speer/Toledo Chronicle Tama County Sheriff’s officers, County Attorney Jared Bauch and Medical Examiner Dr. C.W. Maplethorpe with Marshall County authorities and state DCI agents check the scene of the discovery of body of Helen Mae Bown, 61, north of Montour along the Iowa River on Oct. 31. 1973. Bown was reported missing on Oct. 7 from her home in Marshalltown and believed murdered. No one was ever charged in the death.

she disappeared, and her companions were rough customers. The DCI was on the case from the outset. I think we concluded she got in the Iowa River near Marshalltown and that it was likely a Marshall County case.

“Her appearance in Tama County was probably due to the vagaries of the Iowa River currents.

We had nothing to tie her to a Tama County location at the time of her death.

We did consider hers to be a suspicious death.”

And it was suspicious to Marshall County authorities. Then-Marshall County Attorney Ron Kaiser

convened a grand jury on Nov. 7, 1973, according to a news report in the Marshalltown Times-Republican. He said the reason for impaneling the grand jury “was to present evidence that has been uncovered.”

However, no indictment was handed down and the newspaper report Kaiser said “would not comment” on whether he thought “foul play may have taken place or the nature of the evidence.”

The state medical examiner had ruled the death due to “probable drowning.”

Over the years no one was ever arrested nor the case of her death

FOR YOUR NEXT HOME PROJECT

ever officially closed.

Recently, current Marshalltown Police Chief Mike Tupper reviewed the Bown case file which he termed “interesting to read.”

“I believe it is one of those cases which could be resolved with a piece of information here and a piece of information there,” he said.

Some details of the investigation are not public because the case does remain technically active, Tupper said, admitting “I asked around some of long-tenured police department employees and they were completely unfamiliar (with it).”

Payroll Services

Tupper filled in some details not initially reported, however.

Bown was reported missing by a visiting county health nurse who apparently had been caring for Bown at the time. County health nurses then and now often call upon patients who are in their own homes.

In response to rumors which reportedly circulated in Marshalltown taverns at the time, Tupper said, “From some of the details, it does look like officers did investigate multiple possibilities and did review comments people made.”

He said he was uncertain why the then-termed Iowa Bureau of Criminal Investigation (now Iowa Division of Criminal investigation) was called into the case. But he said protocol then may have been similar to today: “What we would now do.”

Helen Bown’s obituary said her husband, William, had died in 1972. The couple had always lived in Marshalltown.

Tama County Sheriff Dennis Kucera and Deputy Bruce Rhoads both said they have no direct

knowledge of the case as neither were serving with the sheriff ’s office then.

A native of Red Cloud, Neb., Bown had married her second husband, William, in 1964. She had previously married Orville Berger in 1926 when she was 14 years old. They had two sons.

Bown was buried in Riverside Cemetery in Marshalltown.

The Bown case was the second time in which a Marshalltown woman’s body would be discovered in Tama County. Earlier that year, the body of Rochelle Lass, Marshalltown, was found on a rural Tama County road north of Montour on Feb. 22, 1973.

That case was solved with the arrest and subsequent conviction of her husband, Dennis Lass, for first-degree murder.

Lass, who had been employed as an insurance adjuster, died in prison in April of 2014 at age 73, while serving a life term.

The couple had lived in Toledo for a period of time before moving to Marshalltown.

Cardinals drop heartbreaker in OT

By Jocelyn Sheets Newton Daily News Duncan Lee took off his helmet, asked for water, and then went over to sit down on Newton High’s bench flanked by big electric fans. But the Cardinal senior line-

backer was up and ready to go out for the coin flip to start overtime in Friday night’s game.

Lee and the Cardinal defense stopped visiting Marshalltown’s Bobcats on a late drive in regulation to force the non-district game

into overtime. Newton won the overtime coin toss, electing to go on defense first.

“Our defense stood up and got us to overtime. It came through in overtime, giving up just a field goal. We came up one play short of winning the game,”

Newton head coach Ed Ergenbright said following a 24-21 loss to the Bobcats.

After holding Marshalltown to a 27-yard field goal by Kyler Ladehoff, the Cardinals took their turn on offense in overtime.

Starting at the 10-yard

Jocelyn Sheets/Daily News On his way to the end zone is Newton High senior running back Joseph Banfield on a 14-yard touchdown run in the third quarter. Banfield’s scoring run put the Cardinals up 21-14 over visiting Marshalltown, but the Bobcats tied it up a couple minutes later. The teams went to overtime to decide Friday’s non-district game, and the Bobcats won 24-21 at H.A. Lynn Stadium.

line, two running plays yielded no yards, and Newton faced a thirddown and goal at the 10.

Sophomore quarterback Garrett Sturtz dropped back and threw the ball while under pressure from the Bobcat defense.

Bobcat senior defensive back Sam Rogers went up and made the interception in the end zone to thwart the Cardinals and end the game.

“We thought we could hit that crossing pattern, but we gave Garrett no time, and he had to throw the ball earlier than he wanted,” Ergenbright said.

“I’m very proud of the way our kids played and extremely pleased with their effort.”

It was the second heartbreaking loss in a row for the Cardinals, losing by a field goal in the first two games of the season.

The Cardinals (02) head into Class 3A District 6 play Friday at home against Grinnell.

“The bottom line is we have to get people healthy and get better overall. We have many players who played every down of the game.

In the second half, we had backups playing for backups. We had two young kids playing wingback, who haven’t had many reps with the varsity in practice and quite honestly don’t know all the plays,” Ergenbright said.

CMB’s offense explodes in win over Norsemen

By Troy Hyde Newton Daily News MAXWELL — The heat was brutal, and by the end of the game, the entire Collins-Maxwell/Baxter football team was exhausted.

But not even the heat could slow down CMB’s offense against Roland-Story on Friday night.

The Raiders piled up 548 total yards and had five scoring drives of 63 yards or more during a 48-30 victory over the Norsemen in the team’s home opener.

Blake Coughenour rushed

for 151 yards and three touchdowns, while Brady Stover threw a touchdown, rushed for a score and hauled in a 77-yard touchdown pass from Nate Bishop.

Bishop finished with 256 passing yards in relief of the injured Hunter McWhirter, and Stover finished with 140 receiving yards on six catches in the victory.

“It felt really good. The guys supported me, and I just gave them an opportunity to make plays,” said Bishop about his first start of the season.

CMB (2-0) led 8-7 af-

ter the first quarter but outscored the Norsemen 18-7 in the second and 16-9 in the fourth.

The Raider defense allowed only 208 yards and forced three turnovers, but Roland-Story stayed in the game with big kickoff returns.

The final touchdown of the game for Roland-Story (0-1) came off a 92yard kickoff return by Matt Moore. The Norsemen had four other scoring drives and two of them started in CMB territory and a third began at the R-S 46.

“That’s probably the No. 1 thing. We will enjoy the win, but we can’t have that,” Luther said of the kick coverage. “We just missed a bunch of tackles and made a lot of fundamental mistakes. We’ll work on it. That will be a focal point this week. If we are going to score 48 points, we’re going to kickoff a lot, so we better do a better job covering it.”

Three of CMB’s first four scoring drives covered 77 yards each. The first featured 12 plays, including a 35-yard RAIDERS | 2B

Coughenour rushed for 151 yards, had 61 yards receiving and scored three times in helping CMB get to 2-0.

This & That

Results in opener don’t mean much in Cy-Hawk football game It’s one of my favorite weeks of the year — Cy-Hawk football week.

For the fan bases, it is a fun but nerve-wracking week.

Fans of both Iowa and Iowa State are confident in the annual game, especially when the opener results in a win like it did for both teams this past Saturday.

But when a friend asked me By Troy Hyde what I thought Newton Daily about the game News after seeing Sports Writer both teams win rather easily against FCS opponents last week, I couldn’t really answer the question.

My simple answer is: I just don’t know.

No matter what happens in that first game, the Cy-Hawk game is unpredictable.

Iowa looked better against what appears to be a better team in Illinois State, but Iowa State always shows up to play the Hawkeyes and one would argue it’s the best game the Cyclones play during any given season.

Iowa is going to need to play as well or better than it did against Illinois State. The Hawkeyes dominated the game, and the first-team defense surrendered less than 200 yards and allowed no points.

The Cyclones got off to a slow start against Northern Iowa, but the perceived strength coming into the season — the wide receiving core — gave Iowa State a big lift in the second half.

None of that matters though. You can throw out the records and statistics when these two teams play.

The Hawkeyes are the early favorite in Las Vegas, but they have been favored before and lost. The Cyclones will have another rowdy crowd on their side.

It’s anyone’s guess who comes out on top. But I can’t wait until 3:30 p.m. on Saturday.

Don’t forget to get out and vote in your school board’s election on Tuesday night. The decision you make could decide our children’s future.

Tony Sorenson will be running for the school board at Collins-Maxwell. I wrote in last week’s column that community members and coaches at CMB are on edge about the election because Sorenson and Randy Pritchard, who also is running for the other opposed spot, were once against the athletic sharing agreement that Collins-Maxwell and Baxter currently have in place.

While there is still nervousness among the athletic community, Sorenson and Pritchard have both said, through each of their campaign letters, they are no longer interested in breaking up the two schools’ agreement.

That’s good news.

Maybe now the Collins-Maxwell community can move forward by making much-needed improvements to the schools through the latest bond, which also is up for vote on Tuesday night.

Vote “Yes.” Your students deserve it.

Mustangs start fast, cruise past Central Decatur

By Troy Hyde Newton Daily News MONROE — Logan Gilman threw three touchdown passes, Logan Littrell scored three more touchdowns and the Prairie Cit y-Monroe football team bounced back from a Week 1 loss with a much-needed 48-12 win over Class 1A Central Decatur on Friday.

Littrell T y l e r Dredge took the opening kickoff back 76 yards for the score and the Mustangs were off and running in the home opener.

They led 21-0 after one quarter following two rushing touchdowns by Littrell and then two touchdown strikes from Gilman in the second quarter helped give PCM (11) a 35-6 lead at halftime.

Gilman’s third touchdown pass of the game went to Noah Clark in the third quarter and freshman Wes Cummings scored on a 4-yard touchdown run to cap PCM’s scoring.

Gilman finished 10-of11 through the air for 181 yards and three scores. Littrell rushed for 105 yards and scored twice. He also caught a 22-yard touchdown pass from Gilman in the second quarter.

Clark, whose third-quarter touchdown covered 10 yards, led the PCM receivers with 95 yards on five catches, while

Luke Greiner had three catches for 56 yards and a 21-yard touchdown.

Cummings gained 66 yards on nine carries and Reid Jenkins led the defense with 10 solo tackles and a blocked punt.

Raiders Continued from Page 1B catch and run by Coughenour that came on fourth and 10.

Coughenour finished it off with a 2-yard touchdown run.

Coughenour’s 151 rushing yards came on 22 carries and he also gained 61 yards on two catches.

“It felt like I had 106 carries tonight. We get that all black uniform on, and the heat just gets to you. It got to me a lot,” Coughenour said. “I knew we were going to run the ball a lot, but I didn’t know it was going to be that many times.”

Bishop made another big play on fourth and eight during CMB’s second scoring drive that covered 53 yards in eight plays. Coughenour was again on the receiving end of the fourth down play and he ended the drive with a 5-yard touchdown run.

“I just tried to extend the plays as much as I could and get the guys in open space,” Bishop said of the fourth down plays. “Maybe a couple of them were risky business, but it worked out.”

The next two scoring drives each went 77 yards.

On the first one, Bishop hooked up with Hunter Gunderson for 23 yards, Tucker Maxwell for 22 and Stover for 17 and then Stover scored on a 3-yard run. The following drive needed just one play as Bishop found Stover a 77-yard completion to put the Raiders up 26-7.

Troy Hyde/Daily News Collins-Maxwell/Baxter senior Hunter Gunderson (28) closes in on Roland-Story ball carrier Alex Teig (29) during the Raiders’ 48-30 non-district win in Maxwell on Friday night.

Caleb Schlatter and Paul Moats each scored on touchdown runs in the first half to start a Norse rally, and Brett Staton hit Schlatter on a 16yard scoring pass to get within 26-21 early in the third quarter.

CMB scored 39 seconds later though as Stover connected with Brad Ritter in the end zone on a wide receiver pass that covered 15 yards.

The Raiders answered a Gunder Howe field goal when Coughenour scored his third touchdown of the game to put CMB up 40-24.

Senior lineman/linebacker Charles Robertson capped the scoring with a 4-yard rushing touchdown with 3:16 to go in the game.

CMB, Lynnville-Sully boy harriers compete at Pella

By Jocelyn Sheets Newton Daily News PELLA — Young runners dominated Saturday’s small division boys’ cross country race of the Pella Invitational. Three seniors broke into the top 20 spots in the race including Lynnville-Sully’s Canyon Kuhlmann.

Kuhlmann was edged at the end by freshman Ian Thomson of Collins-Maxwell/Baxter.

Thomson claimed the sixthplace spot in 19 minutes, 14 seconds with Kuhlmann taking seventh in 19:19.

Sophomore Malachi Hornbuckle of Nevada won the 5K event in 18:15, leading Nevada to the team title.

Nevada scored 32 points for first in the five-team field followed by North Polk with 51 points. CMB’s Raiders ended up third with 77 points.

“I’m proud of our runners today. They did a great job of competing in some pretty intense conditions with the heat and humidity,” CMB head coach Jerry Meinerts said.

“The boys ran some great times on a tough course.”

Lynnville-Sully only had two runners in the race. Junior Lucas Jones finished

29th in 23:18 on a hot and humid morning on the Central College cross country course.

CMB sophomores Carter Fricke and Max Van Maanen placed ninth and 11th, respectively, in 19:59 and 20:03. Freshman Josh Bruntz was 24th in 22:14 and junior Brady Ross placed 32nd in 24:59.

Freshman Addison Swaab was 33rd in 25:38 and freshman Eric Wagner placed 35th in 27:29. There were 35 runners finishing the small division race.

Meinerts said the Raiders are working hard in practice and continuing to improve at each meet. He said he couldn’t wait until the weather cools a little so CMB runners could really get after it.

Prairie City-Monroe elected not to run in the meet because of the heat.

Lynnville-Sully runs Tuesday in the Grinnell Invitational. Thursday, CMB is at the Greene County Invitational and PCM goes to the Johnston Invitational.

fense with five tackles, while Ritter had a sack and Coughenour, Caleb Van Zante and Zach Schafer all recovered a fumble.

CMB will take a 2-0 record into Class 2A District 7 play, but the Raiders have to get healthy in a hurry.

McWhirter (ankle) and starting lineman Archer McFadden (knee) both left CMB’s Week 1 game against Gilbert and several more players were injured in Week 2.

McWhirter did not play against the Norsemen. Jason Hillgren (concussion) and Brady Kemp (ankle) both left in the first half with injuries, and Luther said backup running back Dalton Birchmier may have broken his ankle in the second half.

“We have to coach the guys up that we have,” Luther said.

“Dead men don’t win awards.

We are going to keep plugging with what we have and try to get better.”

CMB, Lynnville-Sully girls run hot at Pella Invitational

By Jocelyn Sheets Newton Daily News PELLA — Only two seniors finished in the top 10 of the girls’ small school division cross country race in Saturday’s Pella Invitational. One of those was Lynnville-Sully’s Marissa Vos, who finished the 5K race in 23 minutes. 44 seconds for sixth.

Collins-Maxwell/Baxter and Lynnville-Sully were the area girls’ teams competing in the meet on a hot and humid morning on the Central College cross country course. CMB was led to second place as a team by freshman Brenna Thomson as she ran the course in 23:23 for fourth place.

Finishing in front of Thomson were a trio of North Polk underclassmen. North Polk sophomore Amelia Lesher won the race in 22:41.

North Polk won the team title with 26 points and CMB was second with 45 points.

Lynnville-Sully’s Hawks finished fourth with 87 points.

“I’m proud of our runners today. They did a great job of competing in some pretty intense conditions with the heat and humidity,” CMB head coach Jerry Meinerts said. “The girls ran some great times on a tough course.”

Joining Thomson in the scoring for CMB’s Raiders

were junior Heather Jessen, freshmen Lauren Ratliff and Shasta Moody and senior Chasity Moody. Jessen ran the race in 23:48 placing seventh followed by Ratliff in eighth place in 24:06. Shasta Moody took 10th in 24:28 and Chasity Moody was 16th in 26:28.

Sports Cardinals Continued from Page 1B other, but a hot and humid night at H.A. Lynn Stadium in Friday’s home opener for the Cardinals. The teams matched each other score for score — it was 14-all after the first quarter, no scoring in the second period, and then each had a touchdown in the third quarter.

The Cardinals had the Bobcats on their heels early. Dalton Nevels partially blocked a punt. Newton had the ball at the Marshalltown 43, but had to punt it, pinning the Bobcats on their own 8-yard line.

Josh Gulling put pressure on Bobcat quarterback Peyton Williams, who threw the ball up for grabs. Jwan Roush came up with the interception at the Bobcat 24-yard line.

On a third-down play, Sturtz found Bryce Tish in the clear in the middle of the field. Tish made the catch and raced into the end zone on a 19-yard scoring pass play. Gulling kicked the extra point for a 7-0 lead with 7:46 left in the first quarter.

Marshalltown faced a third-and-10 on its next possession. Williams was under pressure again, but managed to get the screen pass off to Luke Severson. Severson broke a couple of tackles and raced to the end zone, covering 61 yards. Ladehoff ’s kick tied the game.

Back-to-back penalties and a quarterback sack forced the Cardinals to punt from their own end zone which provided the Bobcats with a short field.

They covered the 32 yards in four plays as Williams connected with Josh Edel on a 14-yard scoring strike.

Newton was down 14-7, but not for long.

Roush quickly put the Cardinals in scoring position on the ensuing kickoff. Roush returned the football to the Marshalltown 8-yard line.

Joseph Banfield had a 3-yard run then Roush finished it off with a touchdown run from five yards out. Gulling’s kick made it 14-all.

ond quarter. Newton moved the ball to its own 47-yard line before it fumbled the ball, and Marshalltown recovered it.

The Cardinal defense turned the Bobcats away on downs at the Newton 37 late in the second quarter. The teams went into halftime, locked at 14-all.

Newton took the second-half kickoff and went on an 11-play, 76-yard scoring march. The Cardinals mixed in running by Banfield and Nevels with passing by Sturtz to Nevels and Tish. The pass plays came in big third-down situations to keep the drive alive.

Sturtz had a quick pass to Norvell to move the ball to Marshalltown’s 23. Banfield powered ahead for nine yards and scored on a 14-yard run at the 7:41 mark.

“We go up by seven and two plays later we give up a long touchdown run,” Ergenbright said. “It comes down to fatigue tonight. We had really tired kids, who kept fighting to the end. We lost Jwan to an injury. He tried to play in the second half but couldn’t go.”

It was John Ross breaking loose for a 57-yard touchdown run for the Bobcats, and with the extra-point kick, it was knotted at 21-all Newton and Marshalltown had opportunities to score in the final 12 minutes of regulation but didn’t. Marshalltown’s Rogers intercepted a pass to stop a Cardinal drive.

Newton knocked the football out of the grasp of Williams as he tried to score. The ball bounced into the end zone and was recovered by Nevels for a touchback.

The Cardinals fended off the Bobcats twice in the final 2 minutes. Newton got the ball at its own 19 and faced a fourth-and-inches with a little more than a minute left in regulation. Ergenbright decided to punt the ball.

“We’re at our own 28 and if we don’t make it, they only need two plays to get into field goal range and we lose.

Our kids had played too hard to take that chance. I wasn’t going to beat our own kids, and I’d make that decision again,” Ergenbright said.

Hawks hold their own in loss to Eagles

By Jocelyn Sheets Newton Daily News SULLY — Lynnville-Sully’s Hawks went into Friday’s home opener against Pella Christian with eyes wide open. The Class A 10th-ranked Hawks knew they had a challenge with the Class 1A No. 2 Eagles, but they didn’t back down.

After the Hawks drew within a touchdown, 28-21, with 1:15 left in the third quarter, the Eagles responded with a 58-yard touchdown strike from David Kacmarynski to Levi Jungling before the end of the period.

Pella Christian scored one more time in the fourth quarter while holding Lynnville-Sully scoreless for the final 13 minutes of play. The Eagles notched a 42-21 win to go 2-0. The Hawks dropped to 1-1.

“The game was closer than the final score,” Lynnville-Sully head coach Mike Parkinson said. “Our kids played well in a lot of ways against a very good football team. We just ran out of gas.”

Parkinson said Pella Christian is a two-platoon team with most of their players only playing offense or defense. Lynnville-Sully has players playing both sides of the ball, and on a hot and humid night, the Hawks wore down, he said.

Pella Christian had too many offensive weapons — Sam Fredrickson rushed for 123 yards on 21 carries and scored three touchdowns; Kacmarynski threw for 209 yards and a touchdown and had two rushing touchdowns; and Jungling caught seven passes for 169 yards and a touchdown.

The Hawks fell behind 13-0 on a 1-yard touchdown run by Kacmarynski late in the first quarter and a 4-yard scoring run by Fredrickson at the 11:34

Thompson had the extra-point kick.

Late in the third quarter, the Hawks marched 86 yards to hit paydirt on a 2-yard scoring run by Ehresman. Ehresman finished the game with 128 yards on 24 carries.

Then came the big pass play for the Eagles right before the end of the third quarter. Fredrickson scored his third touchdown of the night at the 8:45 mark of the fourth quarter.

“We just keep going forward and continue doing what we’re doing. We played better tonight than we did last week,” Parkinson said. “We’ll have our hands fill at Colfax Friday in our first district game. These kids made it interesting against Pella Christian and never quit. They play well as a team.”

Parkinson said Caden Dunsbergen had a good game on both sides of the football. He had five tackles on defense. Dylan Roozeboom led the Hawk defense with nine tackles and Corey McCoy made five tackles.

Fisk was 1-of-5 passing for 20 yards. Ehresman completed a pass for 34 yards to Engle. Engle was hurt in the second quarter and did not return to the field, Parkinson said.

push the lead to 28-7. Kacmarynski tossed a two-point conversion pass to Jungling and Gabriel Soler kicked an extra point.

Tigerhawks get into win column, rout 2A Clarke

By Troy Hyde Newton Daily News OSCEOLA — Jared Myers threw touchdown passes to five different receivers and rushed for a sixth score, Jacob Lietz returned an interception for a touchdown and the Class A Tigerhawks bounced back from a disappointing Week 1 performance with a 48-28 win over Class 2A Clarke on Friday night.

Myers’ touchdown strikes went to Lietz, Blake Summy, Colin Lourens, Lane Dunblazer and Gabe Simpson.

The Tigerhawks led 34-6 at Myers halftime and were up 48-14 after three quarters. The starters did not play at all in the fourth.

Myers began the scoring with an 11-yard touchdown pass to Lietz and then made it 14-0 when he scored on the ground from 11 yards out.

It was 20-0 after one quarter following Myers’ 3-yard touchdown pass to Dunblazer. The final two scores of the first half were a 15-yard strike from Myers to Simpson and a 33-yarder from Myers to Lourens.

Clarke scored its first touchdown with 7 seconds to go in the half and closed to within 34-14 with another score to begin the third.

The Tigerhawks (1-1) went up 48-14 when Myers connected with Summy on a 63-yard pass play and Lietz ended their scoring with a 43-yard interception return for a touchdown.

Clarke (0-2) scored its final two touchdowns with less than five minutes to go in the game.

Myers was 17-of-28 in the game for 272 yards and an interception. He gained 100 yards on the ground on 15 carries.

Lietz had 53 rushing yards on three carries and finished with 91 receiving yards on seven catches.

Summy had 95 receiving yards on four catches and Lourens tallied 54 yards on two catches.

The Tigerhawk defense forced four turnovers.

Lietz had six tackles, a fumble recovery and a pick.

Alan Wheeler finished with five tackles and Lourens had a sack.

Troy Hyde/Daily News Iowa State wide receiver Quentin Bundrage (9) leaps for the corner of the end zone against Northern Iowa’s Tim Kilfoy (24) during the Cyclones’ 31-7 win over the Panthers at Jack Trice Stadium on Saturday. Bundrage, who missed all but four plays in 2014 due to an ACL injury, had five catches for 53 yards on the night.

Iowa State leaps by Northern Iowa AMES (AP) — A sign on a meeting room door at the Iowa State football complex laid out a simple goal.

“1-0,” it read. “MAKE IT HAPPEN.” The Cyclones did just that.

Sam Richardson threw two touchdown passes and Iowa State got rolling in the second half to open the season with a 31-7 victory over Northern Iowa on Saturday night.

Iowa State bottled up its FCS opponent for most of the steamy night and provided a key victory for coach Paul Rhoads, who is under scrutiny after winning only five games the last two seasons.

The Cyclones also ended a two-game losing streak to FCS teams and won its opener for the first time since 2012, delighting a record crowd of 61,500 in newly expanded Jack Trice Stadium.

“For the last nine months, that’s what we focused on, getting that first win,” wide receiver Allen Lazard said. “We stuck with each other and our defense played a hell of a game. Without a doubt we wouldn’t have won that game without the defense.”

Illinois transfer Aaron Bailey totaled 199 yards and threw a touchdown pass in his first game at quarterback for the Panthers.

But he was sacked five times and UNI was hurt throughout by poor field position.

Richardson settled down after a shaky start and threw third-quarter touchdown passes of 36 yards to Dondre Daley and 13 yards to Lazard, the latter a bullet across the field to the 6-foot-5 sophomore in the right corner of the end zone for a 24-7 lead.

Slowed by injuries at times in his career, Richardson finished

21-of-29 for 233 yards and was not intercepted.

Lazard had four catches for 43 yards and showed a new dimension by averaging 25 yards on four punt returns, including a 34-yarder.

Trever Ryen took over those duties late and topped off the victory by returning a punt 81 yards for a touchdown.

Quenton Bundrage, playing for the first time since tearing an ACL on the fourth play of last year’s opener, caught five balls for 53 yards but lost two fumbles.

Iowa State muddled its way to 10-7 halftime lead that easily could have been much larger.

Cole Netten missed field goal attempts of 38 and 41 yards, Richardson twice overthrew Lazard in the end zone, the Cyclones lost a fumble and were set back by a couple of big penalties.

Hawkeyes pound Illinois State IOWA CITY (AP) — Iowa tried a fake field goal for what felt like the first time in years.

It didn’t work.

The crowd cheered anyway.

A frustrated fan base desperate for change got it during an impressive opener for the Hawkeyes.

C.J. Beathard threw for 211 yards and a touchdown in his first career start at Kinnick Stadium and Iowa pounded Illinois State 31-14 on Saturday.

Beathard was 15-of-24 passing and also ran for two touchdowns, and LeShun Daniels, Jr. had a career-high 123 yards rushing for the Hawkeyes.

“After all the speculation of how this was going to be, we went out there and proved that we’re going to run the ball.

We’re going to do what we do,” Beathard said. “A great way to start the season.”

Iowa never let Illinois State, the second-ranked team in the FCS, entertain thoughts of an upset. It raced out to a 17-0 halftime lead and pushed it to 31-0 on Beathard’s 1-yard plunge midway through the fourth quarter.

Jake Kolbe had 147 yards passing and Ross Thede/Marshalltown Times-Republican Iowa tailback LeShun Daniels Jr. (29) runs over Illinois State’s DraShane Glass during two meaningless late touchdowns for Ilthe Hawkeyes’ 31-14 win on Saturday.

Lynnville-Sully wins SICL opener

By Jocelyn Sheets Newton Daily News SULLY — Opening South Iowa Cedar League volleyball play Thursday, Lynnville-Sully’s Hawks posted their first win of the season.

The Hawks defeated the visiting BGM Bears, 25-21, 25-12, 25-14. They are 1-1 overall and 1-0 in conference play.

“We did a very nice job of serving and playing very tough,” Hawk head coach Heather Lanser James said. “I’m very proud of how the girls handled this match.”

Serving was a big factor in the match as the Hawks were 67-of-72 for 93 percent at the service line. They had 24 aces.

Brenna Lanser served up 12 aces in the three sets, going 17-of-18 on the service line for Lynnville-Sully. Kris-

ten Van Der Wilt was 12-for-12 with five aces and Skyler Young was 11-of12 with four aces.

Shelby Foster had a 12-of-14 night serving with two aces serves. Camryn Russell had one ace.

The Hawks rang up 16 kills paced

by Lanser’s seven. Russell delivered four kills while Jataya Meyer had two.

Foster, Makenzy Rozendaal and Van Der Wilt each had one kill.

Young was credited with seven assists. Providing three assists each were Carson Fisk, Foster and Meyer. Olivia Ritter had two assists.

Lanser led Lynnville-Sully with 16 digs and Young had nine digs. Fisk and Van Der Wilt each had six digs.

Russell had a solo block at the net.

Lynnville-Sully plays at home Thursday against Keota in SICL action, then plays in the Twin Cedars tournament Saturday.

erson threw for only 49 yards.

Iowa held the Redbirds to just 231 yards — roughly half of what they averaged per game last season.

Iowa went through the most tumultuous offseason of coach Kirk Ferentz’s 17-year tenure after a thoroughly disappointing 7-6 season that finished with a blowout loss to Tennessee.

The Hawkeyes gave their smallest crowd in years, just shy of 60,000, exactly what they were hoping to see.

“We talked in January about, it’s a new season,” Ferentz said. “They were ready to play.”

Iowa opened the scoring on a 6-yard run by Beathard; a quarterback draw rarely used by the Hawkeyes. Iowa then went 99 yards for the first time in 13 years, a drive capped by a 5-yard touchdown run from Jordan Canzeri.

Iowa, often criticized for playing it safe at the end of first halves, used a 51-yard screen pass to Canzeri with less than 30 seconds left to set up a 40-yard field goal by Koehn and a 17-0 lead heading into halftime.

Late in the third quarter, Iowa put the Redbirds out of their misery on a miserably hot afternoon.

Newton freshmen lose to Marshalltown

By Jocelyn Sheets Newton Daily News It was a tale of two halves Friday night at H.A.Lynn Stadium for Newton High’s freshman football team. The Cardinals pushed out to a 14-0 halftime lead.

They lost 24-14 to visiting Marshalltown.

Thomas Cox scored both touchdowns and the two-point conversion for Newton. Cox rushed for 59 yads on 14 carries.

Norbert Riyazimana had 59 yards on eight carries.

“We had a great first half,” NHS freshman coach Trent Powers said. “It was a tough game to lose and it stings a bit. We had a lot of opportunities in the second half to regain or keep the lead

but we just could not execute to finish drives.”

Reece Caves led the Cardinal defense with nine tackles and a forced fumble. Cole Webster and Taylor Greiner each had four tackles while Jacob Murphy and Jackson Poulson had a fumble recovery apiece.

Coltin Whitten rushed for 37 yards on seven carries, Josh Miller had 28 yards on six carries and Mason Lee had 11 yards on three carries. Ryan Barr was 1-of-3 passing for three yards to Whitten. Barr had 22 yards rushing.

Newton (1-1) plays at home Friday against Grinnell.

Astrograph

The Leo moon of exaggeration, excitement and drama provides an emotional pre-roll to Sunday’s solar eclipse in the form of a movie trailer of upcoming events. Things flash to mind: the thing you fear, what you desire, the conflict you can’t look away from...

It’s all just a promise of future entertainment.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Sept.

8). Usually there’s quite a difference between what you do for fun and what you do for money, but not this year.

The activity that falls into both categories will expand your fortunes. Don’t be afraid to ask, “What’s in it for me?”

Being realistic about this will help you feel open enough to give of yourself. This year Gemini and Leo people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 45, 21, 24, 31 and 20.

ARIES (March 21-April 19).

A fairytale quality touches today’s situation. There is no happily ever after, but the promise of a series of days in varying degrees of happiness makes a pretty good ending, too.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20).

The Maytag Dairy Farms 2282 E. 8th St. N. Newton, IA you’ll have to rise above the social constraints.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21).

The thing that gets you out of the house and talking to people will be your luckiest activity today, even if it happens to also be grueling work. Casual conversations build relationships. Relationships build your future.

CANCER (June 22-July 22).

The light of wisdom cannot get into a heart that has never been broken. The cracks are what make illumination possible.

Wisdom may not make you feel better now, but it will help you make better choices later.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Get the feeling that you’re being

watched? It’s probably your admirer, your boss, or it could just be the dog. (With all dogs see, sometimes you think it’s a good thing they don’t speak your language.)

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22).

In order to see, sometimes it’s best to open your eyes; other times it’s best to close them.

Every sense you have will inform you today, but none will be so keen as your sixth sense.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23).

Money, power, government, relationships, responsibilities -- all of these things could affect your freedom, but none of them has to. If you can do what you want to do, you’re free.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21).

The reason they see you doing it and then immediately want to do it, too, is because you make it look so easy. Making it look easy is the definition of being good at it.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Bottom line: Nothing gets done unless you put the hours in. Your willingness to put the hours in is your success key.

In fact, nothing will contribute more to your ultimate success than your adherence to a schedule.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). One crucial element to your work will be how you incorporate or ignore feedback.

Let down your defenses and go into learning mode. They don’t

have to be totally right to have a point.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18).

You feel like you’re in an arm wrestling match with fate. This is a contest you don’t want to win. If you win, you’ll never know the glories that fate had in mind for you.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20).

As you quest for new experience, consider spending a lot less energy on it. Maybe new experience doesn’t have to be quested after. In fact, you’re having one right now.
