Man to be sentenced in sexual abuse case of Monroe teen

By Mike Mendenhall Newton Daily News

Jason W. Brooks/Daily News Jasper County Sheriff’s deputies spent much of Thursday afternoon locating and removing the body of a Newton man from the South Skunk River near Metz Bridge, southeast of Colfax. Authorities identified the body at Mike McDaniels, who went missing Sunday.

Jasper County Sheriff ’s Office deputies and Colfax Fire Department personnel ended the search for a missing man by locating him and bringing him up from the bottom of the South Skunk River on Thursday afternoon.

In a news release issued Thursday eve- McDaniels ning, Jasper County Chief Deputy Duane Rozendaal said the man found near Metz Bridge, southeast of Colfax, is Mike McDaniels, of Newton, who had gone missing in that area.

Authorities say first responders located the body of Mike McDaniels, 67, of Newton.

state medical examiner’s office in Ankeny. An official cause of death will be determined by an autopsy.

“The family has been contacted and an autopsy has been ordered by the Jasper County Medical Examiner,” Rozendaal said.

McDaniels, 67, was last seen Sunday at about 10 p.m. at his half-brother’s home, but the following day, McDaniel’s van, fishing pole and tackle box were found along the South Skunk River just north of Metz Bridge, along a rugged section of the east bank.

McDaniels could not be located during initial search Tuesday

in the same area, stretching from the bridge to Highway 14 and involving several first-responder agencies. The river’s current was moving too fast to use a dive team, Rozendaal said.

Rozendaal spent Wednesday discussing the next step with various personnel.

With rain forecast for Thursday night, deputies went to the exact spot where McDaniel’s tackle box, fishing pole and van had been found Monday. They used kayaks and other equipment to search in shallow water near the east bank, north of the bridge.

An Alford plea allows is when a defendant to enter a plea of guilty without making an ad-

mission of guilt.

The defendant was originally arrested and charged with third-degree sexual abuse, also a Class C felony, in November 2015, following an investigation by the Monroe Police Department and the Iowa Department of Human Services.

The victim told investigators she and Vander Veer had engaged in sexual relations. Court records released Wednesday assert the defendant fondled or inappropriately touched the then-13year-old. Vander Veer maintains he did not touch the victim. He was 18 at the time of the incident.

City considering executive rental housing program

By Jamee A. Pierson Newton Daily News The city is taking steps to address a little known housing need — executive rental housing. Director of Planning and Zone Erin Chambers brought the program before city council to start the discussion on the topic.

“This is something that was articulated in the housing initiative,” Chambers said. “It’s not a program that has been fully developed or utilized to date.”

When the Newton Housing Initiative was developed, $200,000 was set aside to fund an executive rental incentive program. The money would

serve as a start for developers to construct up to 40 units not to exceed $5,000 per unit.

“Before any projects can be fully pursued for these funds, it is important to first established a more detailed program with definitions and parameters for determining when projects could utilize the Executive Rental Funds,” Chambers said.

An executive rental unit is defined as a high-quality apartment, duplex or home which meets several areas of criteria including size, unit features, sustainability provisions and short term leases.

New presentation system planned for council chambers

By Jamee A. Pierson Newton Daily News

Jason W. Brooks/Daily News An accident involving a painting crew at the nearly completed new Lauterbach Buick GMC facility at 2900 First Ave. E. in Newton on Thursday lead to one man being airlifted to a Des Moines hospital. The man apparently fell from a ladder. Newton Fire Department EMS Coordinator Rex Heissdorffer said he couldn’t discuss medical details. No further details were available at presstime Friday.

To improve operations in council chambers, city council approved an upgrade of the projection system.

Iowa Audio Video was approved to install the new system at city hall for $11,651.

The current presentation system in council chambers consists of a portable projector that is almost 10 years old.

It currently has to be set up directly behind the clerk’s desk and in front of the mayor, making for a less-than-ideal location. The system was CHAMBERS | 3A

Berg Middle School in second round of healthiest mascot contest BMS could win $1,000 for a health or fitness project

By Jason W. Brooks Newton Daily News Berg Middle School is going toe-to-toe with Algona Middle School this week — though there are fields, courts or courses involved.

Berg is in the midst of a contest with Iowa Healthiest State Initiative with $1,000 as the prize on the nonprofit’s Facebook page.

With the aim of encouraging Iowa schools to fundraise for a health or fitness project, the contest encourages supporters of each of the first 32 schools who submitted applications to vote for their school in a bracket matchup format.

The school with the most votes moves on to the next round.

Berg narrowly eclipsed the 2015 champion, Brody Middle School of Des Moines, in last week’s first round, 301 votes to 292. In second-round voting, which ends Sunday, Berg faces Algona Middle School. The final eight will match up next week, and the matchups continue until the $1,000 champion is crowned.

Sarah Reichhardt of Healthiest State Initiative said in last years finals, Brody needed more than 800 votes to win.

“We get a lot of traction out of this contest,” Reichardt said. “It’s

a great way for the school to give something back to the community in encouraging health and fitness.”

The Healthiest State Initiative started in Iowa in 2010 with a goal of making Iowa the healthiest state by 2016. When it started, Iowa ranked as the 19th healthiest state in the nation by the Gallup-Healthways Well-Being Index, and has since made it into the top 10.

There are also a hundreds of Healthiest Iowa Walks slated for Oct. 5, with Berg hosting one of the nine walks within Jasper County. The “BMS Step It Up!” is slated for 2:15 p.m. that day.

Students and staff walk for 30 minutes together on a fall fitness walk, enjoying the outdoors and improving on healthy habits of walking.

The Berg coordinator for these events is P.E. teacher Ashley Ryan.

“For the past four years, I have signed Berg Middle School up for the Healthiest State Initiative walk,” Ryan said. “This year, when I signed us up we happened to be one of the first schools to sign up.”

Reichardt said there isn’t a mandate or a plan submission requirement in order to claim the prize. However, schools are strongly encouraged to have fit-

God bless you for your kindness.

ness or wellness plan ready in case it wins the $1,000 prize.

“To be honest, we haven’t really set a specific thing we we would us the money for,” Ryan said.

“However, we are really keying in on lifetime fitness for our students. We are looking into new equipment that would empower students to make choices, meet challenges and develop positive behaviors in fitness, wellness and movement activity for a lifetime.”

A search for the Facebook page “Healthiest State Initiative Iowa” should reveal the page’s location.

A tab called “Mascot Challenge” on that page will then take voters to the voting page.

Ryan encourages Berg students and parents and all Newton residents to vote for Berg in the contest. She also hopes students catch the point of the contest — that fitness and nutrition have lifetime benefits.

“We want to improve the recreational quality of our student’s lives,” Ryan said. “We are always looking at new ways to provide ground work for our students to have an active lifestyle — beyond middle school and into the future.”

The victim’s guardian told police a medical examination was conducted shortly after the alleged assault, and the Iowa DCI crime lab later found Vander Veer’s DNA on evidence gathered from the victim and from the victim’s clothes the evening of the incident. Vander Veer originally pleaded not guilty in January.

The Jasper County Attorney’s Office recommended the amended charge and the hearing was overseen by Judge Terry Rickers.

Vander Veer is scheduled to be sentenced at 9 a.m. Nov. 14 in Jasper County District Court.

Size The average unit size for the project should be at least 1,000 square feet. Chambers said special considerations could be made for smaller units within the Main Street District.

“We have built in some flexibility because historic buildings in the downtown could qualify because of their unique features, history and unique ability to live downtown,” Chambers said. “All of that fits into that executive rental component but by the nature of being historic, how those buildings are divided into units could mean that one unit is a little larger and one is a little smaller.”

Contact Mike Mendenhall at mmendenhall@newtondailynews.com

Chambers Continued from Page 1A determined to be outdated and unprofessional.

“The light shines directly in the eyes of council and they must turn around in order to view the information, pulling them away from the microphones,” city administrator Bob Knabel said. “The picture is blurry and many times does not completely fit on the screen.”

To give the council, citizens and the system operator a better experience a wide screen projection will replace the fixed screen, a short throw projector will be installed above the screen and two monitors will hang from the ceiling for better council viewing. All equipment will be wireless and have the ability to direct connect through a connection panel. Users will have the ability to project at all three points, eliminating the need for council to rearrange when viewing.

Three vendors provided bids for the project with Iowa Audio Video submitted the low bid. The company also installed the sound system and camera system in council chambers.

The upgrade will be paid for using $10,000 budgeted to general funds in administration and $1,651.37 that can be reallocated from savings in other budgeted contractual services.

Contact Jamee A. Pierson at 641-792-3121 ext. 6534 or jpierson@newtondailynews.com

Unit Features Each unit should have an inunit washer and dryer, new appliances at the time of construction/ renovation including a dishwasher, air conditioning, garbage disposal, solid wood cabinetry, full bath, new or newly restored flooring.

The unit should have at least one bedroom that can comfortably accommodate a queen sized bed and two other pieces furniture.

It should be hard-wired for telephone and cable, have an enclosed or screened in area for a dumpster or trash collections and would be non-smoking in a non-smoking building.

Sustainability Provisions Each unit must have at least three elements of sustainability including eco/tankless water heater; low volatile organic compounds paint, low VOC carpet, rehabilitated historic windows or new energy efficient windows or energy star appliances.

Jamee A. Pierson/Daily News Director of Planning and Zoning Erin Chambers explains to the Newton City Council the details for an executive rental housing program which would fill a need in the housing market by providing grants for developers to create the high quality, short-term rental housing.

Short Team Leases The unit will provide a sixmonth lease option for the first two years after receiving the grant funds. Councilwoman Miranda Kulis mentioned speaking with local employers about the six- month lease and possibly looking at a three month lease for those employees doing contract work.

To fund the program, the city would provide incentives for developers by way of a minimum 1:1 grant match for no more than $5,000 per unit. The grant would be provided as a reimbursement (after verification of total expenditures for match requirement) and issuance of a Certificate of Occupancy for each unit.

“When we started the housing initiative several years ago, one of the early comments had to do

with executives coming into town, not finding a place, thus locating somewhere else, then possibly losing them,” city administrator Bob Knabel said. “This was laid out as an idea of how do we provide space for those professionals coming in, either through the corporate purposes if they are going to be here a short period of time and go or they are trying to move their family here and they have a house to sell. It was an idea that was put out there as a way of addressing another part of the housing concern and issues.”

Further work is planned on the program before it will go to council for final approval.

A night at the drive-in T

he sun is setting over the horizon — turning the evening sky all different shades of pinks and oranges. It’s a beautiful sight, but the night has only just begun. For as the sun goes down, the movie lights fire up, preparing for the upcoming movie.

I had never been to a drive-in theater before moving to Newton. I had seen them in movies. I still sing the song “Sandy” from the musical “Grease” in my head every time I think of heading the short trip down the road to the Valle Drive-In. (“Stranded at the drive-in...” see now I’m singing it as I write this column.)

The drive-in movie theater has been around since around 1933 when the first “Park-In Theater” opened at Crescent Boulevard in Camden, N.J. The format

www.newtondailynews.com | Friday | Sept. 16, 2016

In the Neighborhood Pam Rodgers really became popular in the 1950s and 60s and soon became an icon of American culture. More than 5,000 theaters were open across the nation, making for a typical weekend destination for most families, friends and especially young couples.

The trends began to change in the 1970s. Because of higher costs and technological advances, attendance began to drop and drive-ins almost died out in the 1980s. They found their niche again in the 1990s, preserving this piece of American history for new generations to enjoy. There are fewer than 500 drive-ins up and running today, making the Valle Drive-in a treasure in our own backyard.

I came to Newton in October of 2014, and in the whirlwind of moving and starting a new job, I wasn’t able to get out

to the drive-in before it closed for the season. I made a promise to myself to do just that when it reopened in the spring.

I did just that, seeing the new “Avengers” movie the next May. I have returned to the Valle several times since then. It makes an excellent family night out, a place to hang out with friends or a great date night.

There was something so nostalgic about spending an evening outside with people you like to be around, having supper picnic-style by the car while waiting for dusk to arrive. I brought my softball glove and played catch, got an intense card game of war started around the cooler and enjoyed the retro tunes that brought the whole experience together.

The concession stand has a great variety, making it easy to enjoy a late night pizza and fresh-popped popcorn during the show. The hot cocoa and cappuccino on a chilly evening is perfect when getting ready for the second film or to simply enjoy during the first.

On the occasion when my parents joined me for an evening at the drivein, Dad told me about seeing “Dr. No” at the Marshalltown drive-in when he was a boy. It was the movie that started a lifelong love of the James Bond movies.

I honestly had no idea there was a drive-in theater in Marshalltown. It was gone well before I was around, and I hadn’t heard Dad mention it prior to that day.

Mom talked about going to the Grinnell drive-in, she could remember one particular outing with her youngest sister Brenda, but she wasn’t sure what movie they saw. I never would have thought to ask if it hadn’t been for the staple in the Newton community.

I love movies and seeing them in this format is an amazing experience. There are still several weekends left before the drive-in has to close for the winter. Go out and take in this gem in our own backyard.

So Anyway Dana King

But my quirks are endearing

I was diagnosed with clinical depression and anxiety disorder many years ago. I wasn’t aware I was struggling as badly as I was with my symptoms. Although looking back, I sure see it now.

I used to announce the Prairie City community calendar on the radio for KCOB many years ago. It was an easy gig. They would call me each Thursday afternoon at 3 p.m. and record me as I read a script I’d prepared in advance of events happening in the area for the upcoming week. If I messed it up, we’d just start the recording over. No pressure.

Easy-peasy, right?

Wrong!

Everything was fine for a while. But as my symptoms progressed, I would wake up each Thursday morning, already worrying about that one phone call, still some nine hours away.

As the dreaded hour approached, I could hear the clock ticking away the minutes, louder and louder.

I would start to hyperventilate and most often work myself into a state of panic. I would be physically shaking inside and out and often unable to hold back tears. Irrational? Absolutely. But there was no reasoning with myself. “It’s only a recording,” I’d tell myself.

“You do this every week and it’s always just fine.”

No, the only thing I could hear was the pounding of my own heart and the ticking of that stupid clock.

Between that level of anxiety and the persistent emptiness, headaches, fatigue, sadness and helplessness I felt, I was just going through the motions to get by. After all, I had a family to raise. They were all relying on me.

Until someone finally stepped in.

You know, no one is “immune” to these type of challenges. No one.

So anyway...

I still have a bad day here and there, but it’s just a bad day. It’s not depression.

I still am afraid of heights and of speaking in public, and mice, sharks and Ouija boards, but those are just fears. It’s not an anxiety disorder.

Now I just have a few endearing whimsical “quirks.”

If I turn two rotations to the right, you can be assured I will ‘unwind’ and turn two rotations to the left.

If hubby folds the bath towels, I will have to refold them so it’s done my way. I don’t tell him, I just do it — after all, it’s my quirk, not his.

I also prefer to live by a schedule — very routinely.

That’s how I want it and that’s how I like it. I can shake things up a bit and still function just fine — I won’t develop an odd tic or start chewing my hair.

That’s not to say there is no spontaneity in my world. I just need advance notice so I can get it on my calendar.

THE FIRST

AMENDMENT

Anti-pipeline movement gathers steam Thousands of Native Americans at Standing Rock in North Dakota are protesting a pipeline project that puts their water supply at risk, threatens to plow up their sacred sites, and would worsen climate change.

Their rallying echoes hundreds of local struggles across the U.S. that question the prudence, safety, and necessity of thousands of new gas pipeline projects.

The gas industry tells us these projects promote energy independence and meet local gas needs. But the driving force behind most of these billion dollar infrastructure projects?

Gas export.

Big gas is desperate to get their cheap shale gas to global export terminals — and they’ve dug up millions of backyards to do it. Fortunately for the industry, they have a subservient federal agency that grants them the power of eminent domain to take those backyards.

The anti-pipeline movement brings together mayors, state officials, and engaged neighbors concerned about health and safety, unnecessary rate increases, and the environmental irresponsibility of constructing new fossil fuel infrastructure.

They’re fed up with a system that allows the profits of private energy corporations to override local concerns and dictate our future.

Many politicians remain stuck in the “gas as a bridge fuel” perspective. But growing scientific evidence shows that methane from gas extraction

Another View Chuck Collins and transportation poses a greater short-term climate change risk than burning carbon fuels like coal and oil.

We should be rapidly shifting away from all new fossil fuel infrastructure projects, and investing in fixing existing gas leaks and using renewable energy like wind, hydro, and solar. This shift will create millions of high-paying jobs in the new energy economy.

The anti-pipeline movement is gathering steam. Residents have mobilized to stop pipeline projects in Massachusetts and New Hampshire, and have stalled others in Kentucky.

But not all anti-pipeline efforts have been successful.

In the Boston neighborhood of West Roxbury, residents have vigorously opposed a high-pressure pipeline that arcs into the heart of a densely populated neighborhood and terminates across from an active blasting quarry. All of Boston’s elected officials unanimously oppose this project — but big business is still winning.

The Texas-based Spectra Energy sued the city and took their streets by eminent domain. The city of Boston is still trying to block the project in court, but construction is almost complete. In the last year, almost 200 neighbors and religious leaders have been arrest-

ed for blocking construction.

How is this possible in a democratic society?

The answer lies with a little-known and unaccountable agency called the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC). Under the Gas Act of 1938, FERC may grant private corporations the power of eminent domain over local jurisdictions.

Maybe this was necessary in 1938 to build a modern energy system. But today, we need an energy agency that’ll balance a wider set of considerations, not just the interests of a politically powerful gas industry.

In the last few years, FERC has rubber-stamped just about every project the natural gas industry has sought to build.

These include high-pressure pipelines running next to nuclear power plants, across fragile water supplies, and across traditional Native American lands.

In the words of Robert F. Kennedy Jr., FERC is a “rogue agency.” The U.S. Senate should convene oversight hearings to examine FERC overreach. Congress must modernize the Gas Act to protect communities and reduce carbon and methane emissions. And an independent agency should assess our nation’s real energy needs.

Decisions about our energy future shouldn’t revolve around a self-interested gas industry and investor-owned utilities.

For the sake of the planet and our democracy, other voices must be at the table.

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

Jasper County awarded federal funds for emergency food and shelter Newton Daily News The Jasper County area has been chosen to receive $7,715 to supplement emergency food and shelter programs in Phase 33 of the Emergency Food and Shelter Program.

Under the terms of the grant from the National Board, local agencies chosen to receive funds must: 1) be private, public, voluntary,non-profits or units of government, 2) be eligible to receive Federal funds, 3)have an accounting system, 4) practice nondiscrimination, 5) have demonstrated the capability to deliver emergency food and/or shelter programs, and 6) if

they are a private voluntary organization, they must have a voluntary board. Qualifying agencies are urged to apply.

Private or public, voluntary non-profit agencies and units of government interested in the program must apply for Emergency Food and Shelter Program. Submission deadline is noon on Monday, Sept. 19. Those wanting an application must contact Local EFSP Chair and United Way of Jasper County Executive Director Jessica Lowe at 641-792-1684 or unitedwayjc@gmail.com.

A local board made up of representatives from several agen-

cies will determine how the funds awarded to Jasper County are to be distributed among the emergency food and shelter programs run by local service agencies. The local board is responsible for recommending agencies to receive these funds and any additional funds available under this phase of the program.

Club News Sunbonnet Questers Sunbonnet Questers met at the home of Shirley Mielke on Sept. 8.

The meeting was called to order at 8 p.m., by secretary Jeanette Shannon following a potluck salad supper. Jeanette thanked Shirley for opening her home for the beautiful evening, which was spent on the screened porch.

Eight members answered roll call with fond memories of our departed fellow Quester, Linda Medland, who died July 17. Linda was an avid collector who enjoyed traveling with the group, leading us with her wisdom and good humor.

She was a joy to know.

Minutes of the previous meeting were read and approved.

The treasurer reported that a check was sent to the museum in memory

of Linda along with gifts from several members.

She has sent a notice to both state and international Questers of Linda’s passing. Judy also reported that she and Dorothy had been to FNNB to have the signatures on the banking cards made current. A copy of the minutes from the March 10 meeting were given to the bank showing Judy Swenson as the current treasurer.

Correspondence from the Salvation Army for our donation this spring and from the family of Linda Medland was read.

Charlotte Townsend reported on the July field trip to Ames where the group visited Reiman Gardens and the Brunnier Gallery. The ladies were enchanted with the LEGO exhibit at the Reiman and had wonder-

ful things to say about the glass exhibit and art work on display at the Brunnier gallery. This was followed by lunch and a tour through shops in downtown Ames then on to the antique mall in Story City for some more shopping.

The August field trip saw four members meeting at Perkins for a ride to Centerville. They rode a trolley driven by a descendant of one of the founding families who regaled them with stories of the town which was founded in 1868.

That proved to be just the thing as it was raining.

There are many beautiful substantial homes which made us wonder who would build such large places. This was a coal mining region into the 1900s but as coal usage dwindled the city began

to reinvent itself and is thriving today. The street around the square is six lanes wide making it one of the largest squares in the country. Lunch was eaten at “One of a Kind” tearoom and B&B where antiques and gifts were also available.

Questers is offering three cash awards at the State Fair and the possibility of offering awards at the county fair as some other Questers groups are doing was discussed. A motion was made by Judy Swenson that Charlotte and Judy look into the possibility of our doing that. Motion carried.

A local tag sale that some members attended was also discussed.

The next meeting will be Oct. 13 at the home of Jan Turk with Jan presenting the program.

Memories of awful boyfriend continue to linger years later DEAR ABBY: Years ago, I dated an awful guy. He possessed just about every negative quality you could imagine. I dated him anyway because I was immature, depressed and lonely.

Since we broke up and I got my mental health back on track, my life has been wonderful. I keep moving up and forward in life. I hear through the grapevine that his life, on the other hand, is in shambles.

I blame myself for wasting the time I did with him. Sometimes when he pops into my head I get sick to my stomach. I’m afraid he might come back into my life and harm me because he blames me for his miserable life and bad choices.

How do you remove such a negative person from your memory? Is it possible to forget — especially when you want to? — ANNOYED IN TEXAS DEAR ANNOYED: Your experiences have made you the person you are, and at this point in your life, you have made yourself successful and happy. Congratulations for that. Now it’s time to stop listening to news about your ex-boyfriend through the grapevine.

When friends bring him up, tell them you aren’t interested. If he lives nearby, frequents the same places you do and has threatened you, talk to law enforcement or move. Give it time; time has a way of healing. It’s important that you continue getting on with your life. You may find fears will dissipate once you find a new significant other.

DEAR ABBY: I’m someone who’s been chronically hot for as long as I can remember. In winter, I usually wear lighter clothes than most people so I can be comfortable. Unfortunately, complete strangers feel compelled to ask several times a day, “Aren’t you cold?” or say, “You’re crazy for dressing that way!”

I don’t feel I should have to justify my wardrobe, and I think calling

someone crazy is out of line. I have pointed out to some people that how I dress is none of their business, at which point they take offense. (One guy even told me to “shove it where the sun don’t shine.”) I don’t think my response was inappropriate considering that they were the ones judging me. I’m the one who should have been upset. What can I say to these judgmental people without justifying myself and without evoking an angry response? — NOT CRAZY, JUST COMFORTABLE DEAR NOT CRAZY: Most people are curious when they see something “different.” Wearing lightweight clothing in the dead of winter qualifies as different. If you are asked, all you need to say is that your body temperature runs hotter than most people’s, and you are perfectly comfortable. Period.

DEAR ABBY: A friend of mine died recently. My question is, how much time should I wait before asking his widow if she saved his hearing aids from the crematorium and if so, could I have them? — CHEAP MINNESOTAN DEAR MINNESOTAN: You didn’t mention how long ago your friend died, but if it was yesterday, give the widow a week or two to recover from the shock of her loss. I say this because if you wait too long, somebody else may grab them, but if you ask too soon, she may give you an earful.

New plan surfaces for ‘boutique’ casino CEDAR RAPIDS — Plans for a $40 million downtown casino have surfaced in Cedar Rapids. The project by Wild Rose Casinos & Resorts would cost less than a quarter of the estimate for the Cedar Crossing riverfront casino plan rejected by the Iowa Racing and Gaming Commission in April 2014. Wild Rose President Tom Timmons says he envisions a “boutique” casino that would have parking on the first floor, the gambling area on the second and commercial office space on the third and fourth.

LEHIGH — The mayor and city clerk of the small Webster County city of Lehigh have quit, and another City Council member says she may resign. Former Mayor Paula Martin said she resigned because of issues discussed at a Monday council meeting. She declined to give details, and minutes of the meeting weren’t available.

City Clerk Kathy Gambill declined to say why she had given her two-week notice.

DES MOINES — Downtown Des Moines’ busiest bridge is scheduled to close Monday, forcing thousands of commuters to find other ways across the Des Moines River. The Grand Avenue bridge, which handles 7,600 vehicles daily, is being replaced. The replacement bridge is expected to open at the end of next year. The new structure will have three traffic lanes — two westbound and one eastbound — plus a westbound bicycle lane and curb parking on the south side.

Protesters go to court for trespassing pipeline project DES MOINES — Most of 30 protesters arrested last month at a central Iowa petroleum pipeline construction site have appeared in court on a trespassing charge.

All but one took responsibility for the action and will pay just over $270 in fines and fees. One pleaded not guilty and faces trial.

The protesters are members of environmental and citizens actions groups. They rallied Thursday after court appearances. They’re calling on President Barack Obama to halt the Dakota Access pipeline.

Five more people allege abuse by priest SIOUX CITY — Five more people are alleging sexual abuse decades ago by a now-deceased priest, according to the Roman Catholic Diocese of Sioux City.

The diocese also confirmed Wednesday that it has reached a settlement with the man who first came forward with allegations against the Rev. Peter Murphy, who served in several northwest Iowa parishes from the 1950s through the 1970s.

Attorney for victim’s family blasts Iowa board over delays DES MOINES (AP) — An attorney for the family of a woman mistakenly killed by an Iowa police officer lashed out Thursday at the Iowa Public Information Board for what he called “unconscionable” delays and errors in her case.

Adam Klein, an attorney for Autumn Steele’s family, accused board members of mishandling complaints alleging that police have illegally withheld public records in

her January 2015 shooting. Klein said they were hurting a grieving family.

Unbowed by the criticism, the board voted to delay the case further and rehear the merits of it — which it had already decided 10 months ago.

That takes the case back to the beginning of the process, 20 months after the 34-year-old mother was shot and killed by a Burling-

ton officer who was intending to fire at her attacking dog.

Authorities have released a brief body camera clip of the shooting and a summary of the incident, but have rejected requests for additional records. They say the records are shielded because they are part of a peace officer’s investigative report, which can be kept secret under the Iowa open records law. The officer wasn’t charged.

King says QB’s protest ‘sympathetic to ISIS’ The Associated Press WASHINGTON — U.S. Rep. Steve King says Colin Kaepernick’s protest of the national anthem is “activism that is sympathetic to ISIS.” The 49ers quarterback has sat or has taken a knee while the anthem has been played in protest of what he says is the oppression of blacks and other minorities.

The Iowa Republican says in an interview with Newsmax TV that if he were Kaepernick’s coach, he would tell the player that “until you take a knee and beg forgiveness from the American people, you’re not going to set a foot on this field again.”

The congressman says Kaepernick is taking advantage of his position as an NFL quarterback and “undermining patriotism” in the process.

Iowa farmland values drop nearly 9 percent over past year DES MOINES (AP) — A new survey shows that farmland values in Iowa have dropped nearly 9 percent over the past year.

The survey, released on Wednesday from the Iowa chapter of Realtors Land Institute, says farmland values have dropped about 25 percent from a 2013 peak.

The state’s average farmland value through September was $6,486 an acre. The average value in September 2013 was $8,750 an acre.

The survey says all nine crop reporting districts showed yearover-year declines ranging from 6.7 percent in northeast Iowa to 11.7 percent in southwest Iowa. According to the report, the only gains seen were in non-tilled timber.

Land values are expected to continue to fall due to declining corn and soybean prices.

“Land values will continue to decline until they’re supported by the income generated from the property,” said Kyle Hansen, a real estate broker with Hertz Real Estate Services.

According to the U.S. Department of Agriculture, national farm income is expected to be 42 percent lower than its peak in 2013.

Hertz is a farm management company based in Nevada, Iowa. Hansen compiled the survey, which is based on sales and assessments from about 150 real estate brokers, bankers, appraisers and other farm professionals.

Prosecutor explains sentence for Iowa child sex assault OTTUMWA (AP) — A prosecutor in the case of an Iowa teen who was given a suspended 10year prison sentence for molesting a 1-year-old girl said Thursday that the teen was duped into the act by child pornographers posing online as a teenage girl.

The suspended sentence for Kraigen Grooms, 19, issued Monday has stirred outrage on social media and led to an online petition calling for an Iowa judge’s removal.

But Wapellow County Attorney Gary Oldenburger said Grooms’ sentence was part of a plea agreement based on a bevy of factors, including that the victim’s parents refused to participate in prosecuting Grooms.

“My original intent was to send him to prison for a long time,” Oldenburger said. “The girl’s parents didn’t want Grooms to go to prison; they wanted him to go to rehab.”

Court records show

that Grooms — who was 16 when the crime occurred — received a 10year suspended sentence and five years of supervised release. He was given credit for nearly 2.5 years spent in a juvenile detention center and, later, adult county jail while he awaited trial. He must register as a sex offender and faces prison time if he reoffends.

Oldenburger said the toddler was not raped or physically harmed; the prosecutor told the

Des Moines Register that Grooms was masturbating in the video.

He also said Grooms did not know the abuse was being recorded by pornographers.

The pornographers tried to persuade Grooms to commit additional abuse, Oldenburger said, but Grooms didn’t. A psychologist found Grooms was un-

likely to commit sexual abuse in the future.

Grooms’ actions came to light after federal authorities tracked down the pornographers — one in New Orleans and the other in Ireland, Oldenburger said.

“The abuse was committed at the behest of two men who had, over a long period of time, perfected the technique

for duping children into committing sexual acts that they would not have otherwise engaged in,” Oldenburger said. “They were so skillful and so persuasive in their efforts that they successfully convinced hundreds of children to engage in sexual activity while they surreptitiously recorded it.”

Raider girls, PCM’s Ellens win at Lynnville-Sully Invitational

By Jocelyn Sheets Newton Daily News LYNNVILLE — When Prairie City-Monroe’s boys run and the Collins-Maxwell/Baxter girls run at cross country meets this season, results are going to be the same in most cases. PCM senior Chris Ellens is going to win the individual boys’ title while the CMB girls claim their division’s championship.

It was so Thursday at the Lynnville-Sully Invitational on the Diamond Trail Golf Course.

CMB’s Raider girls placed their top five runners in the top 10, finishing with 34 points to win their fourth straight meet title. Pekin was second with 55 points while PCM’s girls finished third with 148 points.

“It was really nice to compete against Pekin tonight,” CMB head coach Jerry Meinerts said.

“They’ve got such a great program and have been great for many years. Our girls were up for the challenge.

We knew they were a great team and we had to bring our best.”

Also in the girls’ division, Colfax-Mingo took fifth with 183 points and Lynnville-Sully scored 194 points for sixth. There were 10 complete teams competing in the high school girls 5K race.

Lynnville-Sully head cross country coach Darin Arkema said it was great the weather cooperated this year after the team battled rainouts the last few years of its home meet. He said it ended up being quite warm and sunny, which made things more challenging.

“Our course already has some tough sections. We hosted some really strong 1A and 2A competition with 17 schools competing,” Arkema said. “It was a great opportunity for us to again host a home meet at the Diamond Trail Golf Course in Lynnville. Our team gets to compete at home where it’s easy for family, fans, and community members to come out and support them.”

Southeast Warren’s Elise Emmick was the girls’ individual winner in 21 minutes, 41 seconds.

Pekin’s Shea Dahlstrom was just ahead of CMB’s Ashlee Johnson for second in 21:51 and 21:57.

Johnson led the CMB girls in a 3-6-7-8-10 individual finish. Colfax-Mingo’s Dakota Hostetter held off CMB’s Heather Jessen to claim fifth place in 22:26 to Jessen’s 22:56.

Breanna Thomson finished seventh in 23:08 followed by Lauren Ratliff in eighth at 23:10. Taking 10th place was Shasta Moody in 23:32 to complete CMB’s team score.

Mustangs lose to Roland-Story

By Troy Hyde Newton Daily News MONROE — Prairie City-Monroe volleyball coach Krystal Ehn loved what she saw out of her Mustangs in the third set against Roland-Story on Thursday night.

Now Ehn hopes her squad can use what it did in that set and apply it to an entire match.

The Mustangs fell behind 2-0 to the Norse in their home opener and couldn’t recover during Roland-Story’s 25-22, 25-19, 17-25, 25-17 Heart of Iowa Conference victory.

“They gave their all.

They fought hard,” Ehn said. “I am very pleased with that third game. It shows some very good potential for the rest of the season.”

Each winning school is presented with a crystal award and $2,000.

Well done, Newton and Lynnville-Sully students.

As a band geek in high school and college and a lover of literature, it is important to me to see students excel in the fine arts. Yes, I’m a sports journalist, but in high school, students should be exposed to many academic challenges and experience many activities. Those activities include athletics, music, art, drama — the whole gamut.

Now turning to the sports world,

The Big Ten heavyweights spent the first three weeks of the season beating up on lesser opponents while climbing the rankings. With five teams in the top 15 of The Associated Press Top 25 , more than any other conference, it’s time for the Big Ten to get to work.

The schedule on Saturday is full of big-time matchups.

Third-ranked Ohio State visits No. 14 Oklahoma, No. 4 Michigan hosts improving Colorado, No. 12 Michigan State travels to No. 18 Notre Dame and Nebraska hosts No. 22 Oregon.

In the new playoff era, meaty matchups like these in the nonconference may become more common. One of the main components in the selection process for the fourteam playoff is strength of schedule, so power programs can no longer afford to pad the

there are four area football teams heading into their second district game Friday. The big area clash will be in Sully Friday as seventh-ranked Lynnville-Sully’s Hawks (3-0, 1-0) host the Cardinal Comets (3-0, 1-0) in Class A District 6 action. They are the two undefeated teams in their district.

Also in Class A play Friday, the winless Colfax-Mingo Tigerhawks host Belle Plaine, which is 3-0 and 1-0 in District 5 play, at Colfax. Collins-Maxwell/Baxter is at home in 2A District 3 play and searching for its first win of the season against West Marshall (1-2, 0-1).

Prairie City-Monroe collected a victory a week ago to open 2A District 6 play. The Mustangs are on the road Friday against host Centerville. PCM sports a 2-1, 1-0 mark while the Reds are 1-2 and 1-0.

Newton has a long road trip Friday — 159 miles one way — to Burlington for its final non-district contest in 4A play. In the four years I’ve been in Newton, the Cardinals have not played Burlington’s Grayhounds. The only thing I know about Burlington is former Newton Daily News sports writer Ben Schuff works for the Burlington newspaper.

Newton is powered by a running

first month of their schedules with no-name schools that get paid to take a beating.

“I think you’ll see more and more of it,” Nebraska coach Mike Riley said. “It looks like a unique way, different way, that people are starting their season with their non-league games, like we’re playing and like we saw right from the first weekend. I think it adds a lot of intrigue and excitement to it.”

And there are more than just playoff implications.

When the Buckeyes go to Norman on Saturday, the Sooners will be hosting several sought-after recruits that Ohio State coach Urban Meyer would love to land as well.

Come out of the game with a win in front of some of the most talented high school players in the country, and they could win more than just a game.

game offensively while the Grayhounds like to go through the air.

Weather could be a factor. The Cardinals and Grayhounds could be playing in the rain. That would be the third out of four Friday nights in the rain for the Cardinals.

The Cardinals open 4A District 4 play next Friday at home against Marshalltown.

Looking at Major League Baseball — my Kansas City Royals have imploded down the stretch. The defending World Champions are mostly likely not going to make the playoffs. They were right in the thick of the wild card race in the American League then began going backwards. With 16 games remaining, they have a lot of work to do to climb back in and reach the playoffs for a third straight year.

The Chicago Cubs have clinched a playoff spot and the National League Central Division title. Newton graduate Tim Buss, NHS Class of 1990, is the Cubs’ strength and conditioning coordinator. Buss has been with Cubs’ staff since 2001. Buss is a member of the Newton Baseball Hall of Fame, inducted in 2005.

Tigerhawks pull out five-set win over Montezuma

By Troy Hyde Newton Daily News COLFAX — Three Colfax-Mingo volleyball players collected double-doubles during a five-set win over Montezuma in South Iowa Cedar League action Thursday.

The Tigerhawks won the first two sets but were forced to a fifth frame during a 2624, 25-21, 7-25, 24-26, 18-16 home victory. It was the second straight win for the Tigerhawks, who improved to 5-2 overall and 3-0 in the SICL. Junior Ries Wilson finished

with 24 kills and 29 digs to lead the Tigerhawks, while senior Amy Russell added 12 kills and 21 digs. Junior setter Megan Earles collected 34 assists, 15 digs and was 17-for-17 in

serves with two aces.

Sophomore libero Chelsea Russell finished with 18 digs and was 17-for18 in serves.

Senior Dakota Hostetter, Earles who ran in the Lynnville-Sully Cross Country Invitational earlier in the evening, had 12 digs, four kills, five blocks and went 11-for-11 in serves.

Junior Rhiannon Haley also had 12 digs and went 15-for-17

in serves with three aces. The Tigerhawks had 11 aces in the match, led by Amy Russell’s five. Senior Aranda Woods chipped in four kills.

The loss snapped Montezuma’s two-match win streak.

The Bravettes fell to 13-7 overall and 2-1 in the SICL. Colfax-Mingo travels to the Adair-Casey/Guthrie Center tournament Saturday. The Tigerhawks return to SICL play at 6:30 p.m. Monday at HLV.

Troy Hyde/Daily News Prairie City-Monroe senior Tatum Nearmyer smacks a kill between Roland-Story blockers Madison Friest (20) and Natalie Tryon (3) during a Heart of Iowa Conference match in Monroe on Thursday. Nearmyer finished with five kills on the night, but PCM lost in four sets.

Mustangs

Continued from Page 1B have played a factor in the team’s slow start. PCM trailed the Norse 15-6 in the opening set before closing to within 2422 in the final moments.

“We had a different starting lineup than usual. That made a little bit of a difference, but we weren’t quite on fire at the start of the match,” Ehn said.

“They need to be more ready when we start matches. They need to play hard and have the mindset that they are going to win and are going to score points.”

Sophomore Avery Stock helped the Mustangs get back into the first set with a pair of aces.

Roland-Story senior Krista Mehl, a 6-foot-2 middle hitter, was tough to stop at the net.

She came into the match with 31 kills but had 15 against the Mustangs on Thursday.

The Norse lead got to 21-13 at one point, but PCM rallied behind an ace and a kill by senior Katie Vande Wall, a kill by senior Tatum Nearmyer and a few errors by the Norse.

Stock served up three straight aces with her team down 24-19 to close the gap, but R-S pulled out the first set by three.

The Mustangs’ play improved in the second set. Mehl gave R-S a 12-9 lead with back-to-back kills, and then

the Norse (6-4 overall, 2-2 in the HOIC) scored four straight later in the set to go up 17-11.

They finished off PCM with a kill by MaKayla Geise, who had 11 kills in the win.

“We just weren’t quite there tonight. The second set was better. They started to do what we have been working on in practice,” Ehn said.

“It’s very tough to come back from a 2-0 deficit. We had to get re-focused, and I had to remind them to just execute what we practiced.”

The third set was by far the best of the night for PCM. A block by senior Kaylee Townsend made it 9-6, and then an ace by senior Kayla Jennings extended PCM’s lead to 12-7.

Townsend finished with five kills and eight blocks in the match, while Jennings had three aces along with a team-high 23 assists.

Roland-Story closed to within 17-14, but PCM (4-14, 1-2) extended the lead with another kill by Vande Wall and a hitting error by the Norse.

Vande Wall led the Mustangs with eight kills and seven digs.

Nearmyer finished with five kills on the night. She had backto-back attack points to end the third set and extend the match.

“We did a much better job in the third set,” Ehn said. “Our blocking was really good tonight and it was exceptional in that set. We were on fire and determined to win that game.”

Communication was the main issue for the Mustangs in the fourth and final set. Jennings started the frame with consecutive aces, but Roland-Story got back-to-back aces from Taryn Johnston to put the Norse up 13-7.

The Norse, who had 13 aces on the night, went on cruise control from there and closed out the match.

“We just couldn’t stop the other team’s serve enough,” Ehn said. “We were discouraged in the fourth set from the beginning. There wasn’t quite enough talking on the court.

If there is anything that I want more from this team is talking.

It’s a quiet group. They are very intense, very competitive and they want to win, but they are just quiet. We need them to talk more. The fourth set was tough.

The communication just wasn’t there.​“ Sophomore Maddie Samson finished with six kills in the loss, while junior libero Olivia Lippman finished with six digs.

The Mustangs as a team were good on just 77 percent of their serves. They came into the match with a serving percentage of .878.

PCM looks to get back on track when it hosts Greene County (4-10, 1-2) for a HOIC match at 7 p.m. Tuesday.

CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) — NASCAR’s playoffs are set to begin with a new set of rules that gives the sanctioning body the power to issue far stiffer penalties — so stringent that a driver could lose the championship if his team fails inspection.

The increased penalties announced Wednesday give NASCAR the authority to levy a harsh penalty should a car fail a post-race trip to the Laser Inspection Station.

How stiff?

A winning team would not be able to use the victory to advance to the next round of the Chase for the Sprint Cup championship.

The same penalty could apply to a team that does not have enough secure lug nuts on a car’s wheels at the end of a race.

The new punishments, under guidelines applying to “encumbered finishes,” will go into effect if a team fails the post-race laser by a significant amount or if three or more of the 20 lug nuts aren’t secure after a race.

A winning team will not be stripped of the victory, but the benefits that come with a win could be docked.

The guidelines came the same day NASCAR docked Martin Truex Jr. 35 points and fined crew chief Cole Pearn $15,000 because Truex’s car failed the laser inspection Saturday night at Richmond.

The points deduction does not apply to Truex for the Chase, which begins Sunday at Chicagoland Speedway, because the points have been reset to seed the 16-driver field.

Truex begins the Chase seeded sixth.

Among the significant changes announced Wednesday was one addressing missing lug nuts.

A crew chief will no longer be suspended for one missing lug nut because NASCAR found it did not give teams a significant advantage.

Monetary fines will be administered for one or two missing lug nuts, with a suspension warranted for anything else.

There has been discussion all season about lug nuts, with the idea that the less time spent securing them leads to a quicker pit stop.

Lynnville-Sully takes down North Mahaska in SICL play

By Jocelyn Sheets Newton Daily News

Jocelyn Sheets/Daily News Lynnville-Sully’s McKinley Conover (7) gets to the ball in front of teammate Makayla Rozendaal (26) during a home match earlier this week. Conover had 11 digs in Thursday’s win at home against North Mahaska.

The Hawks beat North Mahaska, 10-25, 25-20, 25-14, 25-13 in South Iowa Cedar League action.

SULLY — Following a sub-par opening set, Lynnville-Sully’s volleyball team got down to business at home Thursday against BGM in South Iowa Cedar League play.

The Hawks won the next three sets to notch their first conference match win, evening their SICL record at 1-1.

Lynnville-Sully beat BGM’s Bears, 10-25, 25-20, 25-14, 25-13.

Hawk head coach Jayme Deal said the Hawks would use Monday’s conference loss to Colfax-Mingo as a learning experience. It appeared the Hawks needed one more set for the lesson to take.

Olivia Ritter was a steady force at the serving line for Lynnville-Sully. She went 23of-24 and served up seven aces. She had five kills at the net.

Lynnville-Sully was 103of-113 serving as a team for 91 percent in the match. The

Hawks rang up 19 ace serves.

McKinley Conover was 20-of-22 service with five aces. Jelissa Rozendaal was 17-of-20 with three aces while Carson Fisk went 19of-22 with two aces. Brenna Lanser served up two aces while going 14-of-15 at the service line.

Lanser led the net attack with 15 kills and one solo block. Jataya Meyer put up one solo block and downed five kills. Fisk was credited with 22 set assists.

Camryn Russell delivered five kills. Skyler Young and Jelissa Rozendaal had two kills each.

Lanser had 32 digs and Fisk had 14 digs. Conover made 11 digs and Jelissa Rozendaal had 10 digs.

Lynnville-Sully improved to 5-2 overall. The Hawks open play at 9 a.m. at Saturday’s North Mahaska Invitational in New Sharon.

Forte scores three TDs in Jets’ victory over rival Bills ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. (AP) — Matt Forte scored three touchdown runs and Ryan Fitzpatrick finally solved Rex Ryan’s defense, leading the New York Jets to a 37-31 victory over the Buffalo Bills on Thursday night.

Forte’s 3-yard run put New York ahead 27-24 with 2:12 left in the third quarter. He sealed the win by patiently waiting for a seam to open before scampering into the end zone from 12 yards to put New York up 37-24 with 4:02 left in the fourth quarter.

Forte finished with 100 yards rushing, and the off-

season free-agent addition became the 13th New York player to score three rushing touchdowns in a game.

The Jets (1-1) bounced back from a season-opening loss to Cincinnati and snapped a five-game skid against their AFC East rivals.

Fitzpatrick finished 24-of34 for 374 yards and a 5-yard TD pass to Eric Decker.

In beating one of his former teams, Fitzpatrick also overcame the stinging memories of last year’s season finale, a 22-17 loss at Buffalo that eliminated the Jets from playoff contention. Fitzpatrick

closed the loss by throwing interceptions on each of the Jets final three possessions.

“I think it means a little bit more than a regular game because this was my life for four years being here,” Fitzpatrick said about spending 2009-12 with the Bills. “But I’m more excited about our team and the way we responded in the second half.”

The Bills (0-2) are suddenly reeling in Ryan’s second season as coach , and two years after he has fired by the Jets.

“Obviously, we never expected this,” Ryan said. “The Jets were a much better team

Cubs lose, still clinch NL Central title after Cardinals’ loss to Giants CHICAGO (AP) — Wrigley Field was dark and empty when a loud cheer reverberated throughout the neighborhood surrounding the iconic ballpark.

While the Chicago Cubs decided to delay their party, their long-downtrodden fans were ready to celebrate.

Chicago wasted its first chance to clinch the NL Central title when pinch-hitter Scooter Gennett delivered a tiebreaking, two-run double in the seventh inning Thursday night, leading the Milwaukee Brewers to a 5-4 victory. But St. Louis’ 6-2 loss at San Francisco completed the Cubs’ season-long dominance of the division.

It appeared manager Joe Maddon and his players were long gone when the West Coast game wrapped up. But the final out in San Francisco touched off a celebration in Chicago that included honking horns and chanting in the streets.

“This is just the first step,” Maddon said before the Cardinals lost. “I mean, we have much larger baseball fish to fry in our skillet.”

The Cubs (93-53) were hoping to begin a 10-game homestand with a boozy celebration of their first division title since 2008. But Keon Broxton homered and Orlando Arcia drove in two runs for Milwaukee, making Chicago wait a little while longer.

Now the party shifts to Friday, right after the Cubs’ afternoon start against the Brewers. It might be a bit anticlimactic for Maddon and Co., but they took all the drama out of the division race long ago.

Led by a stellar pitching staff and MVP contenders Kris Bryant and Anthony Riz-

zo, Chicago got off to a sizzling 25-6 start. After stumbling into the All-Star break, the Cubs pulled away with a 22-6 August that turned the NL Central race into a mere formality.

But the division title is not how this group of Cubs will be judged, not this year. After running roughshod over the rest of the majors for most of the season, they are trying to end the franchise’s famous championship drought that goes all the way back to when the Cubs beat the Tigers in the 1908 World Series.

“We’ve got a lot ahead of us. We really do,” president of baseball operations Theo Epstein said before the loss to Milwaukee. “It kind of all boils down to how you perform in October.”

It’s only the fourth time the Cubs have reached the postseason in consecutive seasons. They got in as a wild card last year and made it to the NL Championship Series before they were swept by the New York Mets.

The offseason additions of Ben Zobrist and Jason Heyward only added to the anticipation for the Cubs’ loyal fan base, and they have delivered up until this point. But many of those same fans also were around for the last division title, when the 2008 Cubs won 97 games and then were swept by the Dodgers in the division series.

“There’s no team I’d rather be going into October with,” Epstein said. “But there are never favorites in October the same way there are in the regular season.”

Jorge Soler hit a two-run homer for the Cubs, who had won three of four. Mike Montgomery pitched six solid innings and helped himself with

a tying single in the fourth for his first career hit.

Justin Grimm (1-1) replaced Montgomery in the seventh, and the Brewers put runners on first and third with one out. Gennett, batting for Jimmy Nelson (8-14), blooped an 0-2 curveball into the corner in left for a 5-3 Milwaukee lead.

The Cubs got one back on Heyward’s RBI double in the eighth, but Tyler Thornburg threw a called third strike past pinch-hitter Willson Contreras with runners at the corners to end the inning.

Thornburg also worked the ninth for his 10th save in 15 chances.

Giants 6, Cardinals 2 SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — Bruce Bochy gave his guys an afternoon off from batting practice and a late report time to the ballpark. His players got a chance to rest up a bit and refresh themselves with a mental break from the September grind.

It went so well, the Giants’ manager is going with the same plan Friday.

“I think it was a really good call by Boch,” outfielder Hunter Pence said. “He had a big impact on refueling us.”

And then, Johnny Cueto went out and inspired his teammates with a timely gem.

The fist-pumping pitcher tossed a five-hitter and retired his final 17 batters, and San Francisco gained ground in the playoff race with a 6-2 victory over the St. Louis Cardinals on Thursday night.

Pence hit a two-run homer, Cueto (16-5) had a go-ahead sacrifice fly and Angel Pagan followed with an RBI single.

Denard Span added a tworun single in the seventh for San Francisco.

than we were today, especially their offense against our defense. You look for a difference in the game and that was the difference in the game.”

The Bills’ offense sputtered in a 13-7 loss at Baltimore on Sunday, and now it was their defense that showed cracks against the Jets.

New York finished with 493 yards, 28 first downs and had seven drives cross midfield.

Bills quarterback Tyrod Taylor rebounded five days after he was limited to 111 yards passing against the Ravens.

He went 18-of-30 for 298 yards and three touchdowns

and an interception. Marquise Goodwin scored on an 84-yarder catch, Greg Salas scored on a 71-yard catch and running back Mike Gillislee made it close, by catching an 18-yard touchdown pass with 1:17 remaining.

The Jets scored on each of their first four possessions to build a 20-7 lead.

The Bills responded by scoring on three straight possessions spanning halftime to go up 24-20. Nickell Robey-Coleman capped the run by returning Jalin Marshall’s fumble 36 yards for a touchdown.

Jocelyn Sheets/Daily News Lynnville-Sully’s Cody Gibbs (19) gets encouragement from teammate Hailey Scandridge (7) as he comes up the hill the second time during Thursday’s Lynnville-Sully Invitational cross country meet in Lynnville.

“Our game plan going in was just to run for places and not worry about the clock,” Meinerts said of the CMB girls. “Our girls’ legs were a little tired from a tough week of practice. Each and every one of our girls competed hard, knew where they were against our competition and really just ran a smart race. Next week, we’ll cut them loose a little and try to drop our times.”

On a hot, muggy late afternoon, Ellens went to the front of the high school boys’ race and stayed there, winning in 17:29. Two Pekin runners — Ryan Millikin and Malcolm Myers — ran the 5K course in less than 18 minutes, 17:42 and 17:59.

It was Ellens third consecutive win and came on the heels of a victory Monday at Pleasantville.

Pekin was the team champion in the boys’ race with 42 points. CMB’s boys placed second with 97 points and Eddyville-Blakesburg-Fremont was third with 119 points.

Lynnville-Sully’s boys were eighth with 245 points as PCM was ninth with 270 points. Colfax-Mingo place 11th in the 13-team field with 326 points.

Three other area boys scored top-10 finishes Thursday. CMB’s Logan Berg and Ian Thomson were fifth and sixth, respectively, in 18:39 and 18:48. Colfax-Mingo’s Cameron Warner took 10th in 19:16.

“Overall, we ran some very good races on a tougher course tonight,” Colfax-Mingo head coach Zach Tomas said. “Cameron has really been running some solid meets with his second consecutive top10 finish. The girls race was loaded with ranked girls and teams. It was nice to see us have three girls in the top 30.”

Leading PCM’s girls to third place was Kirstin Ives, who ran the course in 24:03 for 12th place. Jayci Vos finished 26th in 25:47 and Megan Townley was 29th in 25:53. Rachel Stafford was PCM’s No. 4 runner, taking 32nd in 26:10, and Breanna Vanderpool was 49th in 28:04.

Joining Dakota Hostetter in the team scoring for Colfax-Mingo’s girls were Abbey McConeghey in 15th at 24:41, Delaney Underwood in 28th at 25:52.61, Jodine Woods in 66th at 29:13 and Ilia Hostetter in 68th at 29:20.

Lynnville-Sully’s top finisher in the girls’ race was Abby Gruver in 21st place with a time of 25:05.

Christine Nikkel placed 30th in 26:00.50 followed

by Emily Van Gorp in 35th at 26:49, Ashton Thomson in 52nd at 28:11 and Lydia Akergren in 56th at 28:28.

“Our girls had a solid finish in sixth place, unfortunately again just short of conference foe Colfax-Mingo like we were on Monday at Pleasantville,” Arkema said. “If we can close the gap between our third runner to our 4-5-6 runners, we’ll make up that difference.”

CMB’s boys went into the race looking to finish in the top four as a team. Meinerts said the second-place team finish was great, and the Raiders were chasing Class 2A 15th-ranked Davis County in the meet.

“Our boys’ team has been a team to watch the past couple of weeks in the rankings, so I’m hoping this pushes them into the top 15,” Meinerts said. “Our times weren’t fantastic, but anyone who knows the course would be impressed with what we did tonight. This was our first meet with a different No. 1 runner. Both Logan and Ian ran great races.”

Carter Fricke claimed 16th in 19:57 as CMB’s No. 3 runner in the race. Josh Brunt took 32nd in 21:04 and Noah Rhoades finished 38th in 21:08.

Lynnville-Sully’s boys were led by Jared Craver’s 30th-place finish in 20:42. Ty Breeden placed 37th in 21:01 followed by Josh Dunsbergen in 43rd at 21:18. Luke Jones came in 66th at 22:43 right ahead of Joseph Anderson, also at 22:43, in 67th.

“Our boys were able to top PCM tonight, which was ahead of us at Pleasantville Monday,” Arkema said. “We again had a tight pack from fourth runner to seventh runner. The difference going forward is to get that group of guys to work together to get closer to No. 3. Montezuma is a conference foe they need to set their sights on.”

Jason Stafford was PCM’s No. 2 runner Thursday, finishing 19th in 20:03. Jacob Cox took 55th in 22:05.43, Brady North placed 62nd in 22:22 and Caleb Peter was 75th in 23:05.12.

Colfax-Mingo’s second finisher was Cyden Fitch in 64th place in 22:29. Nic Duffy was 69th in 22:53 followed by KC Huffman in 85th at 23:34 and Michael Looney in 98th at 24:42.

“We are really starting to see a lot of improvements and think we are in a good place heading into the end of the season,” Tomas said of the Colfax-Mingo runners. “We can accomplish some great things if we can get everyone to run to their potential in the same meet.”

CMB’s team run at 4:15 p.m. Tuesday at the West Marshall meet. Lynnville-Sully and Colfax-Mingo join PCM at the 4 p.m. in Thursday’s PCM Invitational in Monroe.

You sense that a relationship is changing. There’s nothing to fear here and plenty to embrace. All will develop in a wonderful direction for those who stay positive.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). If you have to explain a joke, it’s not a joke. The same goes for magic tricks, athletic feats and acts of love. After all, if you didn’t experience it as a loving act, how could it be that? Reception will be key today.

for a beautiful and seemingly effortless connection.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). When one option doesn’t work out, you don’t feel personally rejected any more than a puzzle piece would feel rejected by wrong companion pieces. You’ve a sense that what’s meant to be will be.

This is peace.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Right now it would be pointless to negotiate with the established order. There is a worn path that none involved have reason to stray from.

Wait, though: The balance of power will soon be upset and you’ll have your opportunity.

Burlington edges Newton JV football

By Jocelyn Sheets Newton Daily News Newton High’s junior varsity football team has been close to victory three times this season, but the Cardinals haven’t closed the deal yet.

They led visiting Burlington’s Grayhounds 19-14 late in Thursday’s home game. The Grayhounds scored a touchdown and tacked on a 2-point conversion to move in front 20-19.

Newton moved quickly down the field on back-to-back pass plays. The second pass from Ryan Barr to Ben Leal came up just short of the goal line. Leal was caught and tackled at the Burlington 4-yard line as the clock ran out.

Burlington took a 6-0 lead on its first possession of the game. Newton responded with a scoring drive capped by a 7-yard TD run by Barr, but the Cardinals weren’t able to kick the extra point. The teams were tied 6-6 at halftime Newton gained the lead in the third quarter on an 8-yard touchdown run by Damir Gumerov. Jacob Murphy kicked the extra point to put Newton up 13-6 at the 9:06 mark.

Brian Bleakney’s interception of a Grayhound pass set up the Cardinals’ next score.

Logan Zibert dashed 30 yards for the touchdown, but the PAT kick was blocked.

Burlington answered with a scoring drive to make it 19-

12. Newton drove to the Burlington 8-yard line then failed on a field goal attempt.

Newton had 269 yards of total offense. Barr was 8-of10 passing for 89 yards and rushed for 49 yards on five carries. Leal made two catches for 31 yards and Zibert ran for 80 yards on eight carries.

Lucas Clayton recorded two quarterback sacks for Newton and Mason Lee sacked the Burlington quarterback once. Ty Argello made two interceptions.

Newton’s junior varsity is idle until Sept. 26 at home against Fort Dodge.
