City adopts Crime-Free Multi-Housing Program

By Jamee A. Pierson Newton Daily News

Mike Mendenhall/Prairie City News Tami Ford of Prairie City, casts her ballot Tuesday at the Prairie City Community Building. Voters in Newton elected three school board members Tuesday while voters in Prairie City renewed the Physical Plant and Equipment Levy to provide additional revenue to PCM school district facilities, equipment and technology improvements.

Cantu, Leonard, Cook triumph in school board race Board members elected Tuesday will serve until 2019 Cantu

By Jason W. Brooks Newton Daily News Josh Cantu and Ann Leonard campaigned together for the Newton Community School District Board of Education.

They even handed out “Leonard-Cantu” stickers at last week’s Thanks With Franks charity event.

That strategy seemed to pay off, as Cantu and Leonard were both announced as unofficial winners in the election, which was held Tuesday. Cantu received 690 votes, while Leonard received 589 votes.

Leonard

Incumbent Donna Cook received 624 votes to retain the seat on the board she has held since 2004. The unofficial results must still be canvassed by the Jasper County Auditor; an NCSD canvas and swearing in of Cook, Cantu and Leonard is scheduled to take place at Monday night’s regular board meeting.

Because board member Nat Clark decided not to run this year, that meant there were four candidates vying for three spots on the board. Bill Perrenoud, who was seeking a second term, was not

Newton woman serves jail time for ignoring subpoenas

By Abigail Pelzer Newton Daily News A 25-year-old Newton woman was found in contempt of court Monday and ordered to serve jail time after twice failing to obey a subpoena.

Tiffany N. Jones, who is an eyewitness to a first-degree burglary case, ignored two subpoenas issued for dispositions, Jones according to first assistant county attorney Scott Nicholson.

Nicholson said after he filed an application for show cause, a judge issued a warrant for her arrest. Jones was jailed and held on a $5,000 cash-only bond until her court hearing.

District Court Judge Terry Rickers on Monday ordered Jones to serve 10 days in Jasper County Jail, although she was given credit for two days already served. The remainder of the sentence was

suspended as long as Jones appears at an upcoming hearing, dispositions and an upcoming trial.

Nicholson said Jones is among several witnesses in criminal cases that aren’t obeying lawfully issued subpoenas — certified mail that is delivered by a process server for Jasper County.

“As my witness I had her served twice for depositions in the criminal case and both times she failed to appear,” Nicholson said. “Apparently what we have here — and this concerns me — she had friends and relatives who told her to just blow it off.”

The attorney said he’s also had problems in at least three recent burglary cases in which those who were served with a subpoena didn’t show up.

“This is just bad news if people in this community don’t think they are required to show up to trials or depositions,” Nicholson said. “Those who think nothing is going to happen are going to find the court can take action.”

re-elected; he received 332 votes. There were eight write-in votes cast.

There were 2,243 total votes cast, and each voter could vote for up to three of the four candidates. Only 75 votes were cast Cook through absentee ballots.

All three candidates who were elected thanked their supporters, not only for generating high voter turnout, but also for contributing ideas.

“I look forward to working with the board and listening to the community, our teachers and staff, and the administration to help shape the future of our Newton schools,” Cantu said.

Cook thanked her supporters for helping get the community engaged in the election process.

Jamee A. Pierson/Daily News President of the Central Iowa Property Association Fred Rhodes, who has been active in conversations about the Crime-Free Multi-Housing Program, praised the city for working with local landlords on aspects of the program that concerned those involved.

By Jamee A. Pierson Newton Daily News A $13,200 grant to the Jasper County Sheriff ’s Office was approved for use by the Jasper County Board of Supervisors on Tuesday. The Governor’s Traffic Safety Bureau grant is available annually and has been utilized by the sheriff ’s office for more than 20 years.

“The biggest advantage for this over 20 years is the equipment. The in-car video cameras that are digital now cost about $5,000 to $5,500 and the majority of them, along with our preliminary breath test equipment, have been paid for by GTSB funds. It has been a huge asset to us to get this funding to buy the equipment,” Jasper County Sheriff John Halferty said.

The Crime-Free Multi-Housing Program was adopted at the Newton City Council meeting Tuesday. The council waived the third reading and passed the ordinance after two readings.

“I appreciate the work that we have been able to do together with the council and I’m very pleased with where things are at,” said President of the Central Iowa Property Association Fred Rhodes.

The program has

been discussed by the council several times over the last five to six months including two workshop sessions. It is designed to build a partnership between the city of Newton and owners/ managers of rental properties to reduce criminal activity.

The program also incorporates compliance and enforcement of fire, building and nuisance codes to ensure the overall safety and well-being of tenants.

The program is mandatory for all landlords

FCC to host fall kick off celebration Sunday

Submitted Photo Artist Gordon Mote will be performing a free concert at the Cornerstone Bible Fellowship Church from 6 to 8 p.m.

Sept. 20. The musician, who had been blind since birth, will bring his mixture of Christian, southern gospel and country music for a one-of-a-kind show.

Blind artist Gordon Mote to perform at Cornerstone

By Jamee A. Pierson Newton Daily News At the young age of 3, Gordon Mote sat down at a piano and played “Jesus Loves Me� with both hands. What made it extraordinary was Mote had been blind since birth. Now a Christian, southern gospel and country singer, he performs around the world.

Cornerstone Bible Fellowship will be hosting Mote in a free concert from 6 to 8 p.m.

Sept. 20 at its 1000 E. 12th St. S. location. “I was just passionate about music,� Mote said.

An Attalla, Ala. native, Mote became one of the first blind students in the country mainstreamed into the public school system. He later received a full scholarship to Jacksonville State University in Jacksonville, Ala. where he studied for three years. Mote then transferred to Nashville’s Belmont University and graduated with honors.

Following graduation, country music legend Lee Greenwood asked Mote to join his band. Since then, he has toured with Trisha Yearwood, Porter

Wagoner and Gaither Vocal Band.

As a studio musician, Mote’s big break came when Mote filled in for Country Music Hall of Fame keyboardist Pig Robbins, who is also blind. That day Alan Jackson happened to cut what became Mote’s first No. 1 single, the 9/11 tribute “Where Were You When the World Stopped Turning?�

Since then, Mote has played with country music heavy hitters including Brad Paisley, Martina McBride, Rascal Flatts, Lionel Richie, Alison Krauss and many others. His skills in the studio earned him the Music Row Magazine’s instrumentalist award in 2009 and 2011, which recognizes the musician who played on the most top ten albums. “I always try to bring my creativity and do the very best I can,� Mote said.

Mote also works as a solo artist and has recorded three instrumental and six vocal albums including “If You Could Hear What I See� in 2004, “Don’t Let Me Miss the Glory� in 2007 and “Songs I Grew Up Singing� in 2012.

“My music is so eclectic today, because I listened to every album I could get my hands on growing up. As kids, my brother (who is also blind) and I traveled and sang in churches of all sizes and denominations,� Mote said.

On his latest album, “All Things New,� Mote flipped the script and invited notable artists to perform with him. Trace Adkins, Darius Rucker, Josh Tuner, Sheryl Crow and Scotty McCreery are among the artists who contribute to the album. “I’ve played for every one of these artists on their records.

For them to sing on mine was a real honor,� Mote said.

When he is not in the studio or on the road, Mote is home with his family, including his wife Kimberly and three children, Samantha, Parker and Ashton.

Local & State News Election Continued from Page 1A “I am so grateful for this opportunity to continue to support public education and the success of children in our community,” Cook said.

“Thank you to the Newton Community School District community for your support. Congratulations to Josh Cantu and Ann Leonard. It is a time of opportunity for educational excellence in our community. I look forward to the next four years.”

Leonard said being able to bounce suggestions off of friends and relatives is an invaluable part of the process.

“It’d be difficult to run for a position like this without a significant support group to pressure test ideas, provide hon-

est feedback and share personal experiences,” Leonard said. “I’ve relied on many family and friends to help me along the way, and I am forever grateful for each of them and their role in helping me win this election.”

The school board race came a few months after the end of a controversial study of reconfiguration and board decision to reconfigure at the start of the 2016-17 school year.

In the 2011 election, Perrenoud earned the most votes with 532, followed by Nat Clark with 442 and Cook with 436.

They defeated incumbents Darrin Hamilton and Joe Klingensmith.

There were 1,080 votes cast in that election. The 2,243 votes cast this year means the voter turnout for 2015 was more than double what it was two years ago.

A bond referendum for the rebuilding of the Berg School Complex is set to go to voters on Feb. 2 — the day after the Iowa Presidential Caucuses.

Leonard and her husband, Eric, are parents of two young sons, one of whom is school-age.

She’s the treasurer for the Woodrow Wilson/ Thomas Jefferson PTA, and she’s actively involved with promoting the importance of STEM in education.

20 hours of educational presentations are funded through the grant.

The sheriff ’s office will be able to purchase one additional in-car video camera and two new preliminary breath tests with the grant money.

The board also decided to deny a fireworks permit requested by Angela Dalbey for later this month. It has been customary in the past for the board to stop issuing permits following the first of September, Auditor Dennis Parrott said, citing concerns with dry corn and bean fields potentially catching fire.

Supervisor Joe Brock also said he is uncomfortable with having the responsibility of issuing fireworks permits, not knowing the background of those getting the permits, among other reasons.

“I think on these fireworks permits I am going to start to sustain and try to send a message to the state that we don’t want it in our hands like this. I don’t feel like I am qualified to make the decision whether they are responsible or not,” Brock said.

in Newton with four or more residential rental properties. It will be introduced in three phases including the first phase of management training, second phase of security survey and third phase of community awareness and engagement.

The council did, however, postpone passing the resolution authorizing a $10 permit increase to the rental permit. It was proposed to increase the permits to generate approximately $20,000 to cover the increase for administrative costs to support the Crime-Free Multi-Housing Program.

“When we looked at the additional staffing that was going to be necessary to do the administration of all of the rental program, including the fire inspection and other inspections with it, it was going to cost $14,000 for the additional time added to do the person to do the work,” said Newton City Administrator Bob Knabel. “The cost was then estimated then to be at 2,000 units $7 per unit.

“The discussion then went to the idea of how much are we covering of our cost for these services and who is paying for it. It was a part of the initial review that 60 percent of the cost was being paid for the permit and 40 percent was being paid by the property tax general fund at large. The idea was can we balance that a little more? Thus the $10 suggestion.”

A list of 15 cities was given for comparison in size and cost of rental permits. The size ranged from Spen-

years. He serves on the City of Newton Planning & Zoning Commission.

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.

cer with 11,233 residents to Burlington with 25,663 residents with Newton falling at 15,254. Charges for single rental permits ranged from no charges to $125 and several in the $60 to $65 range. For multi-rental permits it ranged even more from no charges to up to $300.

“I think in some ways with this issue we are playing catch up a little bit. Really our rental fees haven’t increased in decades. We did raise it $5, we voted on it last September, and it went into effect in July. That was the first increase since the 1990s and before that it hadn’t gone up since the 1970s,” said council member Noreen Otto. “I don’t think the fees that we are setting are ahead of other communities in the state.”

Several council members did not feel comfortable with passing the increase without doing further research.

It was postponed upon further information for another meeting.

In other business: • The council approved the Fire Department to accept the 2014 Assistance to Firefighter Grant for $235,000.

• The use of up to $132,000 of the Ending Fund Balance for onetime expenditures was passed with an amendment excluding the money designated for the police memorial landscaping.

• New flooring for the city Wellness Center was approved for purchase.

• Stop signs will be added at the intersection of South 11th Avenue East and East 14th Street South.

Kelley appointed to third term on Innovative Swine Industry Enhancement Grant Board Newton Daily News DES MOINES — Rep. Dan Kelley (D-Newton) was appointed to serve his third term on the Innovation Swine Industry Enhancement Grant Board to help spur and grow Iowa’s swine industry.

“Over the last decade, Smithfield grants have kept Iowa a world leader in agriculture,” Kelley said. “I look forward to the work on this committee for the final year of grants.

Babbling Brooks

The coffee maker and I are going 15 rounds

By Jason. W. Brooks Staff Writer

www.newtondailynews.com | Wednesday | Sept. 9, 2015

Some folks have anxiety about going to meet their maker. I’ve met at least one maker in the past year, and things haven’t gone well so far — for me, anyway.

If you were to step into the Newton Daily News office one morning and hear the “Rocky” movie theme music, there would be a boxing match about to happen. However, it won’t be in anticipation of a fight between two humans — this epic throwdown will be between a man and a coffee maker.

There’s no telling who’s going to win — but it seems the human is a serious underdog.

I have had little trouble with coffee pots through the years, save for moments of not paying attention, but the coffee maker in our newsroom really seems to have my number. Despite the most calculated adjustments, I am the only one in the office who manages to pour coffee all over the counter, on the floor and on file cabinets.

There have been a few fleeting moments of success, where no mess is made, but mostly, those are lucky jabs in a losing cause.

The vast majority of the punches landed are by the coffee maker, and those are uppercuts, straight crosses and vicious haymakers delivered upon me in the form of coffee spilling on my clothing and shoes.

The brief respots of spillage seem to have as little to do with logic and science as the multitude of wasteful pourings that seem to be harbingers of electrical fires.

There seems to be no pattern to my errors, no defect in the coffee pot, no breakage and no slippage.

It would seem the coffee maker simply doesn’t like me, but the previous office coffee maker must not have liked me either, for it fed me the same indiscernible list of spillage outcomes. Did the outgoing coffee pot make sure to tell its successor that I should have little or no peace? It seems so — and it seems the new coffee

maker was all too willing to take up the cause.

Each morning I end up making coffee — which seems to be probably half the time — I try to go over to that part of the newsroom with a positive outlook. I even try to get things started well, speaking to the coffee maker in pleasant conversation.

However, the morning nearly always dissolves into disappointment. Like Charlie Brown, thinking I am finally going to kick the football, I charge ahead until that dreaded Lucy yanks it away at the last moment, and the coffee spills and dribbles around its station.

The first few times this happened, I tried to muffle the curse words one might expect to hear, but those don’t even come to mind that much anymore. Each new spill now brings a sigh and a sad, quiet moment — a time to reflect on the latest faux pas.

My co-workers laughed at first, but seem to have grown

tired of my shenanigans. They have been very helpful and encouraging and have offered every suggestion and change that might lead to victory. However, the coffee maker still wins about 80 percent of the time.

Mackey Sasser was a New York Mets catcher who basically had major-league defensive skills, but often struggled with the basic mechanics of accurately throwing the ball back to the pitcher. I feel my struggles with the coffee maker are this same type of inane battle I must win in my head before I can make real progress in the boxing ring.

When the bell sounds for the 15th and final round, I hope I have the endurance to go the distance. Ask not for whom the bell tolls — ask for whom the coffee will not be spilled on the floor.

No, the Democrats don’t care about Israel

Another View

Sen. Grassley: Bring anonymous companies into the light

By Rev. Julia Rendon Drug running. Human trafficking. Credit card scams. Housing scams. Money laundering.

Tax avoidance.

The common thread that runs through all of these crimes is the use of anonymous shell companies — phantom entities set up to hide the flow of money. We hear about these companies in the news, often in the context of stories about the ultra-rich and their efforts to avoid taxation. We think of the Cayman Islands and banking transactions made poolside. But anonymous shell companies have far more to do with average Americans than we think.

A recent study by the World Bank that looked at more than 200 large-scale corruption cases from around the world showed that American shell companies were used more often than those from any other country to move dirty money. In fact, the U.S. is actually one of the easiest places in the world to set up an untraceable company. It is perfectly legal to incorporate a company without disclosing who actually owns and controls it. In many states, it is easier to form an anonymous company than it is to get a driver’s license or register to vote.

Anonymous companies are used here at home to facilitate crime and hurt Americans. They have been used to scam Americans with poor credit, force vulnerable homeowners into foreclosure proceedings, steal from government programs, avoid taxes and launder money for drug cartels.

The Washington Post discov-

ered that homeowners in several states, including Iowa, faced the prospect of losing their home. They fell prey to Aeon Financial and a man named Mark Alan Schwartz.

Schwartz and Aeon bought up property debts, known as “liens,” piled on tons of legal fees, increasing the debt several times over and gave homeowners a stark choice: pay up or lose your home. After the story was brought to light, the reporter tried to dig through the layers of anonymous companies to determine the actual owners of Aeon Financial. Only after the story received widespread attention did Schwartz disclose in a letter to the editor in the Washington Post that he is a beneficial owner of the company.

Fortunately, there is a bill in Congress that would address these problems. The Incorporation Transparency and Law Enforcement Assistance Act, was introduced during the last Congressional session and awaits reintroduction for this session. Iowa’s own Senator Chuck Grassley was a lead sponsor of this bill during the last session of Congress. And, as Chair of the Senate Judiciary Committee, Senator Grassley would preside over a hearing on this bill upon reintroduction. He has the power to move this bill forward by reintroducing it this session of Congress and scheduling it for a committee hearing.

This is an historic opportunity to put an end to the rampant abuse of anonymous companies and to help communities here in Iowa, across the country and around the world.

As a person of faith, I am concerned about Americans victim-

ized by these problems and about our sisters and brothers being victimized overseas.

The poorest countries across the globe are spending on average five times as much paying off old debt than they are receiving in official aid. Countries that have received debt relief have invested the money in health, education and the fight against AIDS, and have seen much progress, including a decline in child mortality rates, changing the lives of women and children. But ending the cycle of debt requires that countries be able to raise their own revenue so they aren’t dependent on loans. And raising revenue is difficult when poor countries lose far more money to corporate tax avoidance, tax evasion and corruption — activities often facilitated by anonymous shell companies — than they receive in official aid.

So if we’re serious about protecting vulnerable communities both here and abroad, if we’re serious about stopping crime and aiding law enforcement, this is where it has to start. Anonymous shell companies are at the nexus of crime, poverty and our global financial system. They exacerbate inequality and decrease financial stability.

I call upon Sen. Grassley to continue his tradition of upholding fiscal transparency by making our companies and our financial system more transparent, and therefore protecting hardworking Americans and vulnerable communities everywhere.

For years, the American Israel Public Affairs Committee has hosted President Obama or a high-ranking representative of his administration at their annual conference in Wa s h ington, D . C . By Ben Shapiro No matter how anti-Israel the Obama administration’s policies have been, no matter how hostile to Israel the president’s rhetoric, AIPAC has offered President Obama or his lackeys a platform from which to tout their supposed pro-Israel credentials. AIPAC has always rationalized such outreach as an attempt to keep the pro-Israel position bipartisan, to cultivate supporters for the Jewish state on both sides of the aisle.

What a waste.

With President Obama’s despicable Iran deal set for passage this week, with solely Democrat support, the Democratic Party has called the leftist Jewish community’s bluff. Leftist Jews have played a sad game with the Democratic Party: They pretend that Israel’s safety and security is their top priority, then make excuses as the Democratic Party moves more and more boldly to undermine that safety and security — because, in truth, leftist Jews care less about Israel and Judaism than abortion and redistributionism.

Former George H.W. Bush advisor James Baker discounted the Jewish vote by saying, “F—- the Jews, they don’t vote for us anyway.” The Obama administration, with the Iran deal, has adopted a similar view: F—- the Jews, they vote for us anyway.

There is no question that the Iran deal screws the Jews. Under the bestcase scenario, Iran receives $150 billion immediately in unfrozen assets and oil money from the United

States and her allies. In return, Iran pinky swears not to develop nuclear weapons. But they don’t need nukes with all of the benefits President Obama just gave them. Iran wants nukes in order to use such weapons as a deterrent while pursuing terrorist activity across the world, preventing the rest of the world from leveraging sanctions. But now the rest of the world has accepted Iran’s terrorist activities openly. President Obama’s deal guarantees regional power to Iran — and then allows them to go nuclear with no consequences 10 years from now.

And that’s the bestcase scenario. Under the worst-case scenario, Iran grabs its money, funnels it into terrorism throughout the world, continues its takeover of Iraq, Syria, Lebanon and Yemen, and precipitates regional wars with virtually all of its neighbors. Meanwhile, Iran secretly builds a nuclear weapon — and Obama’s verification regime does nothing either to verify or hold accountable. The deal contemplates a three-month delay between Iranian objections to inspections and supposed sanctions “snapbacks” — and even a “snapback” would require a new vote from the same countries now lifting sanctions, a dubious proposition at best.

The Democratic Party’s latest kabuki theater involves allowing supposed pro-Israel allies like Senator Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., to vote against the deal, knowing that Obama already has the votes locked up to pass it. Obama acts angry, Schumer gets to look tough, and Israel feels the brunt of President Obama’s Jew-hating displeasure all the same.

Meanwhile, leftist Jews get to comfort themselves with the idea that Democrats split over the Iran deal — and maybe, just maybe, President Obama has Israel’s best interests at heart after all.

New wife’s family affair shouldn’t remain a secret

DEAR ABBY: I recently married the love of my life. However, a few years ago, I had an affair with his uncle. It was a terrible mistake.

Should I explain this to my husband or keep my shameful secret a secret? Please tell me what I should do. — CONFUSED WIFE IN THE EAST DEAR CONFUSED WIFE: I vote for telling your husband the truth. Better he should hear it from you now than hear about it later from his uncle.

DEAR ABBY: I started a new job four months ago after being out of work because of a large downsizing at my last employer’s, an insurance company. My new job is close to home, and I really like the work involved.

I’m single, in my early 40s and have a wonderful relationship with a widower I met in church. My problem involves my immediate boss, who is a married man with a family. He has asked me to join him for lunch several times. He has left flowers in my car with a note, and keeps asking me to go to concerts out of town because he says his wife doesn’t want to go and he doesn’t want to go alone.

I have tried to downplay his advances, but I am afraid it might cost me my job, my boyfriend and the ability to help my parents financially. I am aware my co-workers are probably wondering what is going on. How do I handle this delicate situation and do the right thing? — IN A QUANDARY IN NEW ENGLAND DEAR IN A QUANDARY: Tell your boss that you are involved in a committed relationship, and so is he. The next time he invites you to lunch, inform him that his invitations are making you uncom-

fortable. After that, if he persists in leaving flowers with little notes, hang onto them because they would be evidence that you were being harassed in case your refusal to have a personal relationship affects your employment.

DEAR ABBY: For the past year I have been married to a man I love with all my heart, but we have yet to reside in the same house. He lives in another city with his child’s mother and gives me excuse after excuse as to why he won’t leave. It’s either that he’s scared to have to pay child support, or he’s afraid of my temper (which I’m seeking help for), or it’s just not the right time.

I think I should take priority over his child’s mother because I am his WIFE. I am fed up with the excuses and ready to call it quits.

What should I do? — MARRIED BUT ALONE IN MARYLAND DEAR MARRIED: Keep working on your anger issues, but call it quits. Obviously, your “husband’s” priorities lie elsewhere.

Whether in the legal sense or the emotional, he appears to be very much married to his child’s mother. As it stands, you are already living as a divorcee, so make it official and move on.

IOWA CITY — University of Iowa students are joining the faculty in issuing votes of no-confidence in the school’s governing board, days after the hiring of a president with little campus support or higher education experience. The measures approved Tuesday by the UI Student Government and the Graduate and Professional Student Government add to the backlash against the Iowa Board of Regents. Earlier Tuesday, the Faculty Senate voted for a similar measure rebuking the regents for hiring corporate executive Bruce Harreld.

Cardinals falter in LHC volleyball opener

By Jocelyn Sheets Newton Daily News Down two sets in a bestof-five match, Newton High’s Cardinals made a stand Tuesday night at home in Little Hawkeye Conference play against visiting Pella Christian’s Eagles.

Newton’s Megan Pressgrove opened the third set with an ace serve. On her next two serves Emily Fitzgerald and Taylor Shipley each pounded down kills. The Cardinals broke out to a 5-0 lead.

Shipley served up two points then Morgan Allen had a two-point run at the service line to lift the Cardinals to a 16-9 advantage. Newton stayed on top and was one point away from sending the match to a fourth set.

It was 24-19, and the Cardinals had the serve. Things unraveled. The Eagles gained the serve, and Kirsten Vander Hart never gave it up. With the help of the net play of Andrea Horstman and a couple of miscues by Newton, Pella Christian rallied for a 26-24 win.

The Eagles won the LHC match 25-16, 25-13, 26-24.

Pella Christian came into the match at 0-6 overall while Newton was 4-7 going into the night’s action.

“At the beginning of the third set is who we really are.

We came out excited, and we were having fun out there,” Newton assistant coach Taylor Peska said. “Our bench was into the match as well.

Jocelyn Sheets/Daily News Winning the joust at the net is Newton High’s Morgan Allen, left, against Pella Christian’s Hanna Vos (13) during Tuesday’s Little Hawkeye Conference match in Newton. Pella Christian claimed the match in three sets.

We were good to go. At the end, we had a couple of things not go our way, and as a team, we lost our composure.”

Newton fell behind 17-7 in the opening set before climbing back into contention.

Kaytlin Ahn had a four-point

run at the service line for the Cardinals to close the gap, but the Eagles expanded their lead to win by nine points.

The second set was close early. Pella Christian used the blocking ability of Natalie Vos, Hanna Vos and Horst-

man to push its lead to 16-7.

The big three were up on the net again on a three-point run to get it to 24-12.

“We did a lot of really good things tonight,” Peska said.

Mustang volleyball team splits two in Heart of Iowa triangular

By Troy Hyde Newton Daily News DES MOINES — It was hard to know what Prairie City-Monroe volleyball coach Krystal Ehn could take away from her team’s first 10 matches of the season.

That stretch featured a 1-9 record, but Ehn was working several different lineups, and the Mustangs were facing some of the best competition they will face all season long.

PCM had a week to work through its weaknesses and figure out how to get into the win column more, and the Mustangs took advantage of their competition break. They returned to action Tuesday night, and the Mustangs split two Heart of Iowa Conference matches with Saydel and North Polk.

PCM rolled past Saydel 25-17, 25-16 and then were defeated by the Comets 25-13, 25-17.

“We only have two starters back from last year, so we have a young team that doesn’t have a lot of varsity experience,” Ehn said.

“We are still working through some things, but we are getting better.”

Ehn felt like her squad was better Tuesday than it was during the first two tournaments of the season back in August.

Against Saydel, PCM jumped out to an early lead in the opening set and cruised to the win. In the final game, Ehn took a timeout with her team down 13-11, and the Mustangs responded by winning the next six points and took the 14 of the 17 points to sweep the match.

Katie VandeWall and Maddie Samson each had four kills to lead the Mustangs offensively. Kayla Jennings dished out 13 assists, while Olivia Lippman collected 14 digs and Ashley Van Gorp had nine digs.

The Mustangs had 13 aces

they were getting there tonight. We need to focus on doing the little things well, like starting with a good pass and doing our individual jobs.

We’ll be alright.”

Cardinal, Hawk harriers improve at Grinnell meet

By Jocelyn Sheets Newton Daily News

Troy Hyde/Daily News Prairie City-Monroe senior Ashley Van Gorp had eight kills, four aces and 14 digs on Tuesday, helping the Mustangs go 1-1 in Heart of Iowa Conference play. PCM defeated Saydel in straight sets and lost to North Polk in straight sets in Des Moines.

against Saydel. Five of those came from Jennings, while Mackenzie Messick had three and Van Gorp had two.

Hannah Becker was too big of a force for PCM to handle in the second match.

Becker especially made her presence felt in the final game as she notched two kills and a block to give the Comets an early 6-1 advantage.

PCM battled back, but the slow start was too much to overcome. The Comets also got out to a 6-1 lead in the opener and Becker’s blast later gave North Polk an 18-8 lead.

“They played really well

against Saydel tonight, but we need to step up our game and prepare more for teams that are more aggressive like North Polk,” Ehn said.

Against the Comets, Van Gorp had six kills and Messick had three. Jennings finished with 12 assists, Tatum Nearmyer claimed 11 digs, and Van Gorp had the only two aces.

The Mustangs are now 2-10 overall and 1-1 in HOIC play.

They’ll play at 6:30 p.m. Tuesday at South Hamilton.

GRINNELL — Cooler temperatures allowed runners to turn in better times Tuesday as Newton High’s and Lynnville-Sully’s cross country teams competed at the Grinnell Invitational.

In the varsity girls’ ranks, Newton’s Cardinals claimed eighth with 216 points and Lynnville-Sully’s Hawks were 11th with 304 points. Vinton-Shellsburg won the girls’ race with 69 points.

Only one area girl finished in the top 10 in the varsity race. Newton freshman Rachel Rhoads posted a time of 21 minutes, 13 seconds for sixth place.

Williamsburg senior Julie Hollensbe ran the 5K race in 19:24.

Lynnville-Sully senior Canyon Kuhlmann was the lone runner for the Hawks in the boys’ varsity race, placing 22nd in 18:41. Newton’s boys placed ninth with 265 points led by sophomore Jack Callaghan in 13th at 18:11.

Rhoads Grinnell senior Jackson Schulte led his team to the team title with 31 points. Schulte won the individual title, completing the 5K course in 16:44. Vinton-Shellsburg was second with 93 points.

“We had a good second outing, and I am pleased with the effort from the girls,” Newton girls’ head coach Rachelle Tipton. “Many dropped time from the first meet. We were without a couple of our athletes, but Kuhlmann the girls stepped up.”

Tipton said Rhoads really went for it in Tuesday’s race and it was fun to watch.

“We saw what she’s capable of doing this season,” Tipton said. “Katherine (Thorpe) had a breakout race, dropping over a minute off her time.”

Thorpe finished 63rd in 25:55 as Newton’s No. 4 runner in the meet. Tessa Keeton was Newton’s No. 2 runner on the day, placing 37th in 23:46, and Ellie Horn ran 46th in 24:21. Caelyn Briley finished right with Thorpe with a 25:55 timing, but was 64th. Michaella Cope took 84th in 28:12.

Senior Marissa Vos led the Lynnville-Sully girls with a 40th-place time of 24:01. Ida Byggeth took 50th in 24:37 followed by Kasiah Ehresman in 70th at 26:18 and Kristine Jaennette was 71st in 26:19.

Former Hawkeye standout Sash dead at 27 IOWA CITY (AP) — Tyler Sash, a standout safety at Iowa who won a Super Bowl with the New York Giants, has died, the state medical examiner’s office said Tuesday.

He was 27.

John Kraemer, the director of forensic operations for the medical examiner, told Sash The Associated Press his office is investigating Sash’s death along with police in Oskaloosa, Sash’s hometown.

Oskaloosa police said in a statement that emergency services were called to a residence Tuesday morning in response to an unresponsive male, which they said turned out to be Sash.

Foul play was not suspected. No cause of death has been

determined, Kraemer said, and an autopsy was scheduled for Wednesday morning.

“We were all deeply saddened today to hear of the passing of Tyler. Our thoughts and prayers go out to Tyler’s family and friends and all the Hawkeyes he was so proud to represent,” the Giants said in a statement.

Sash started 37 games for the Hawkeyes from 2007-10, earning first-team All-Big Ten honors as a senior. He was fourth all-time in interception return yardage in the Big Ten when he graduated, and his 13 picks are fifth-best in school history.

One of the best games of Sash’s career came in 2009 against Iowa State, whom the Hawkeyes face Saturday in Ames. Sash collected three interceptions in Iowa’s 35-3 victory, and the Hawkeyes went on to win 11 games and the Orange Bowl that season.

Sash played two seasons with the New York Giants, winning a Super Bowl ring in 2011.

He was suspended for four games in 2012 for violating the NFL’s performance-enhancing substances policy by testing positive for Adderall, a stimulant used primarily to treat attention deficit hyperactivity disorder and the sleep disorder narcolepsy.

The Giants cut ties with Sash prior to the 2013 opener, reaching an injury settlement after he sustained a concussion in the preseason finale against New England.

Sash was arrested in May 2014 in Oskaloosa after police said he led officers on a fourblock chase with a motorized scooter before running into a wooded area. Officers say Sash was shocked with a stun gun after he refused to be handcuffed.

Sash later pleaded guilty to

public intoxication and was fined $65.

Paki O’Meara, a former Iowa running back and teammate of Sash, described him as a quiet guy who came alive on game day.

“To think of somebody that was so selfless and gave so much, such a good guy, I’m just really shocked,” O’Meara said during a radio interview with KXNO in Des Moines.

Iowa coach Kirk Ferentz abruptly canceled his weekly press conference Tuesday.

Ferentz will meet with reporters Wednesday.

“We are all very saddened to hear about the untimely loss of Tyler,” Ferentz said. “It is always so difficult when it involves someone this young.

Our heartfelt condolences and prayers go out to Tyler’s family during this extremely difficult time — and we want them to know they are not in this alone.”

Hostetter leads Tigerhawk Raiders stay unbeaten after girls to third-place finish come-from-behind win over Rams

By Troy Hyde Newton Daily News PEKIN — Colfax-Mingo junior Dakota Hostetter proved why she is a rated runner to start the new c r o s s country season Tuesday.

C-M coach Z a c h To m a s knew his Hostetter top runner was capable of running the new 5K race in less than 20 minutes, but didn’t expect it to be the first meet of the season.

Yet Hostetter did just that as she raced a

second-place individual finish with a time of 19 minutes, 57 seconds and helped the Tigerhawks place third as a team.

Host Pekin won the meet, and Colfax-Mingo trailed runner-up Albia by 29 points.

Freshman Ilia Hostetter ended up 17th overall in 23:36.

Morgan McKinney was next in 30th, while Colleen Craig finished 36th and Payton Rhone crossed in 42nd.

“This was a great start to the season, and I truly believe is just a glimpse of what we can accomplish,” Tomas said.

The C-M boys were eighth overall and out of eight teams.

Harriers Continued from Page 1B The Hawk girls had Haley James in 73rd at 26:29 and Hailey Scandridge in 74th at 26:34. Shelby Foster finished 86th in 28:46.

“Much nicer weather conditions than our last race provided an opportunity for quality races tonight,” Lynnville-Sully cross county coach Darin Arkema said of all the Hawk athletes. “When the body isn’t expending so much energy trying to keep you cool, you have more to put forth into racing.”

Arkema said the competition Lynnville-Sully has gone up against in the first three races has been tough including 2A, 3A and 4A schools.

He said early in the season, he wants the Lynnville-Sully runners focusing on making improvements, working hard to get better and not being too caught up with what place they finish.

Newton’s boys were led by Callaghan followed by Noah Sander in 49th, running the 5K race in 19:58. Dylan Main finished 58th in 20:21 and

Pekin was the boys’ team champion.

“I know once we get more races under our belt, the boys team is going to challenge teams to be in the top half of some meets,” Tomas said.

Colfax-Mingo is scheduled to run in the Johnston Invitational at 4:30 p.m. Thursday at Fort Dodge.

Raiders with eight kills, while Bekah Pearson had six aces, and Kathleen Baldwin chipped in 13 assists. Jordynn Wesselink also had a team-high two blocks.

The Raiders once again served up lots of aces, finishing with 12, but Ranck wants the serving percentage to go up.

“We served much better, but it still needs to get better,” he said. “We stayed aggressive on the serving, but didn’t move our feet very well so we didn’t get many good passes to set up our hitters.”

CMB improved to 3-0 on the season and is now 2-0 in HOIC play.

The Raiders head to the Perry Invitational on Thursday. First serve is slated for 4:30 p.m.

After that, the Raiders will play at Madrid on Monday and at Class 3A No. 1 Nevada on Tuesday.

Astrograph

What’s your sharing style? Are you a tell-all, no-filters type or are you closed clam-tight about your life? The moon, Venus and Mars are in Leo, while the sun and Jupiter are in Virgo, highlighting the age-old struggle between privacy and publicity.

While sharing about yourself, try to hit that sweet spot that leaves them wanting more.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Sept.

9). This year is one big talent show that invites you to perform over and over. The improvements to your environment this month will favorably affect relationships. It will be especially difficult to balance work and play when the year-

end brings such a wonderful playmate. Money months are March, May and July. Pisces and Scorpio people adore you.

Your lucky numbers are: 40, 2, 22, 14 and 1.

ARIES (March 21-April 19).

How would you feel if nothing changed about your situation -not in five years or 10 years or ever? If that thought is intolerable, you’re now motivated to reach out and make a necessary adjustment.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20).

The activities you’ve chosen for the day require a certain degree of hardiness. Bouncing back is as much a skill as not

falling. There are rewards for stamina, though those rewards are mostly self-created.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21).

Create a plan for what to do if the worst should happen. Doing this will help you to stop worrying. Once you stop worrying, you will loosen up, adopt a better attitude, have some fun and succeed.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). In matters of love, your judgment will be consistently stellar.

You’ll make the choices that bring you closer to the ones you want to be close to and distance you from potentially negative influences.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). What you do to make the environ-

ment more pleasant for yourself will improve things for others, too, so don’t hesitate to speak up. Once you get the conversation rolling, everything will start to change.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). A raised eyebrow, a mysterious text, a finger point toward the horizon -- it won’t take much to stir the curiosity and capture the imagination of those around you. Once you have their attention, you’ll do something useful with it.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23).

A person sees a big dog and thinks “threat.” Another person sees the same dog and thinks “friend.” Either one could be right. Your advantage today will be your ability to adjust to

how others perceive things.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21).

An intellectual approach may be appropriate for the situation, but the wisest decisions get made when you also engage your emotions and let them weigh heavily into the equation.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). There’s really no such thing as pointless chatter today.

There is a world of knowledge inside of small talk. It takes careful listening to know the right questions to open up the treasure trove.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). If you’ve heard it a million times, that’s because it bears repeating. Accept yourself for who you are, flaws and all. This

helps you to accept other people. With increased tolerance, life gets easier for everyone.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18).

The answers could be found in the attic of your mind, but climbing up there will be a lot of unnecessary trouble because the answers can also be found in your immediate environment.

Slow down and look.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20).

Honesty and integrity are important in all of your relationships, especially the romantic ones. You’d like to know the real person and not the person the other person thinks you want to see.
