Developer seeks to build 38-unit apartment complex downtown

Courtesy of Jasper County Historical Museum Five men from the Ira area signed up for the U.S. Army together and served in World War I nearly 100 years ago.

From the left are Russell Rippey (the only one of the five to be killed in combat), William F. “Bill” Castor, Zenas Jones, Clifford “Tip” Castor and Seward Castor.

Three brothers, their cousin and another Ira man joined the military right after the U.S. entered World War I Editor’s Note: This is the first in a two-part series about a unique set of brothers and two other young men from the Ira area known as the Ira Five.

Another apartment building complex is being considered for downtown Newton.

Cohen-Esrey Affordable Partners of Overland Park, Kan. was approved by city council on Monday to move forward with an application for Iowa Finance Authority tax credits to build a 38unit apartment at 205 W. Fourth St. N. Cohen-Esrey is offering $225,000 for the land that is currently a city parking lot.

Rippey was the only one of the quintet to not return alive.

He was injured in combat Oct. 7, 1918 — only 34 days before the armistice that ended the war — and he died of his wounds three days after the injury. He was 19 years old.

The proposed project would be a four-story building, complimented by a play area, a green space and 43 parking stalls. The design of the project is proposed to be compatible in the downtown setting, with a flat roof, partial brick facade, balconies and terraces.

adding a touch of fall

By Jamee A. Pierson Newton Daily News

Tuesday was the 100th anniversary of the end of the Russian Brusilov Offensive — one of many campaigns that took many lives as part of World War I. Even though five men from Ira were still a few months away from joining the U.S. military, the eyes and ears of Jasper County were studying what was happening in Europe.

When the U.S. got involved in World War I the following spring, manpower was needed — quickly — from all across the country. That manpower included all sorts of family members and close friends and neighbors signing up together — including five young men from Ira, who enlisted in the U.S. Army within days.

Newton High Constitution Day invokes political discussion School to increase DMACC celebrates wireless access

By Jason W. Brooks Newton Daily News Anyone who’s tried to use the wireless internet access on the Newton High School campus over the past few years has probably experienced slow loading speeds.

The hardware to fix this issue has finally arrived, and at last week’s Newton Community School District Board of Education meeting, NCSD Technology Supervisor Dan Sloan received permission to get professional help with installing the upgrade.

At its Sept. 12 meeting, the board gave

Sloan authority to accept bids from the two companies he proposed — Communications Innovators of Pleasant Hill and Van Maanen Electric of Newton — for expedited installation of wireless access points at Newton High School. Shipping delays in receiving 90 access devices, made by a company called Extreme, pushed back the planned installation from the summer to the fall months, and Sloan’s staff is now attending to many other needs that come up during the school year.

Cooking family meals with tea There is something nostalgic about sitting on the front porch and sharing a glass of tea with neighbors or family that lends to slowing life down and making memories. But have you tried cooking with tea? With September being National Family Meals Month, it’s the perfect drink to have on the table and perfect ingredient to add to your recipe as your family gathers around the dinner table for a meal at home.

Tea is guilt-free with zero calories per serving. Unsweetened iced tea is 99.5 percent water, making it an ideal thirst-quenching drink. Tea is also packed with antioxidants and offers a way to add flavor to both savory and sweet dishes. The rich flavor of tea is not only soothing in a mug or glass, but it adds depth to any recipe.

You can also feel good about tea’s sustainability. Every glass of Lipton Tea is more than just a cup of tea. Lipton works with the Rainforest Alliance to help provide access to education and a brighter future for families who work on

In many recipes, you can replace water with tea or use powdered tea (such as matcha green tea or tea ground in a spice grinder) as a garnish, spice or rub on meats. In addition, you can smoke meats or meat substitutes with tea leaves or marinate meats with brewed tea. When steaming foods, such as fish, rice or vegetables, you can add a pinch of tea leaves to the water.

Here are some ideas for savory tea foods: — Boil eggs and other foods in tea instead of water.

— Infuse teas into broths for soups and stews. Flavorful black teas (like Assams and Ceylons) are better for beef or pork broth, while umami-rich Japanese green teas (like Gyokuro and Sencha)

are better for chicken or seafood broth.

— Marinate tofu, seitan, seafood or meat in tea for 30 minutes or more to impart flavor and remove unpleasant odors.

— Use brewed tea and tea leaves as an ingredient in rice dishes.

— Stuff whole fish with oolong or green tea leaves before steaming fish.

— Whisk matcha into sauces and dressings.

— After brewing a Chinese green tea, retain the leaves and sauté them with vegetables and/ or meats.

— Poach fruit in black or oolong tea with sugar or honey.

Add spices as desired.

— Use tea or tea-infused milk/ cream to make tea sorbets and tea ice creams.

— Add a splash of tea to your favorite smoothie.

For sweeter tea foods, try infusing an Earl Grey tea into a ganache for tea chocolate truffles. As you warm milk to make hot chocolate, steep some tea in it. Strain the tea leaves (or remove the tea bag) and continue to make hot chocolate as you normally would.

Local & State News Council Continued from Page 1A The apartments will be subject to income restrictions, due to the proposed state funding.

According to city administrator Bob Knabel, a majority of the units would be for people at 60 percent of the area’s median income. This translates to $27,360 for a single person and $39,060 for a family of four.

“These restrictions mean that the project would be geared toward workforce housing, especially new workers, and to retirees on fixed incomes,” Knabel said.

“Recent surveys of local employers and employees indicate that there is a shortage of high-quality affordable apartments in Newton. The location near DMACC would also be advantageous for part-time students that would be eligible to live

in the units.”

While the project will be partially funded by tax credits, Sweeney is optimistic citizens will be happy with the design and amenities at the complex.

“The modern tax credit product is not your father or grandfather’s tax credit project,” Sweeney said. “The goal now with IFA and the housing department is really to make sure the tax credit projects do not differential as far as design or look to a market rate. We think this project could be that type of building.”

Four market-rate apartments are also planned for the building.

The project will be competing for the same State of Iowa Housing Tax Credits as the recently approved Miller-Valentine project proposed at the former Seed Store property.

www.newtondailynews.com | Thursday | Sept. 22, 2016 | 3A While only one project can receive the credits, Newton Director of Finance and Development Bryan Friedman sees multiple applications as a positive.

“The way I look at it is, applying for multiple projects increases our odds of getting at least one,” Friedman said.

Councilwoman Evelyn George agreed having more than one developer show interest in the city shows there is a need in the community.

Council asked Friedman if there were any safe guards in place for over-saturating the market, if both projects were to be approved for tax credits.

“When the state gets direct competitors they conduct individual market studies gauging the viability of each of those separately,” Friedman said. “Also, when they have competing projects they will do a sepa-

rate, independent study gauging whether the market can sustain both of them.”

Along with the tax credits, the city will provide an incentive of a property tax rebate

for 15 years. The rebate would be a maximum of $20,000 per year, and would be funded by tax receipts from the project into the North Central Tax Increment Finance (TIF) District.

The application is due to the state by Nov. 17 with a decision expected to be issued in March.

“It’s not a matter of the technology or skills to install them,” Sloan said. “It’s a matter of getting it done soon.”

Sloan said the contract awarded to either Communications Innovators or Van Maanen will likely be for less than the $12,500 cutoff where he would need board approval on the winning bid, according the NCSD board policy 803.3.

Communications Innovators was chosen in May by the district as the winning vendor for both additional security cameras and for a $44,000 contract to supply the 90-point wireless internet access network for the high school. The new Extreme devices will be able to move large amounts of data to many devices, enabling the district to use its devices in the intended ways.

The 38 access points at NHS were built to hold far less traffic than they’re currently asked to endure, Sloan said, as those were installed before the district’s 1-to1 technology initiative led to a massive number of high-data iPads and other devices, and before students, faculty and parents had so many of those devices of their own.

Sloan said the Cisco access points that the service contractor will remove will still be used.

“The 38 units that get pulled will be distributed through other buildings, augmenting weak spots in the network,” Sloan said. “Particularly at Berg Middle School.”

Sloan said the current network

or wrestling competitions, when there might be enough devices in one spot to slow down access mildly, but there will be access points distributed with those events in mind.

Internet speeds during a regular school day should be significantly faster, Sloan said.

There won’t be any fancy hardware around campus to show this change is being made.

“The Extreme points really don’t appear much different,” Sloan said.

“But the insides are what matter.”

Morrill teaches history at DMACC and often ties in past events with current events.

She shows students how the issues we face now are usually connected to past events whether its a decision, cause or similarity, and she points out that these events could be tomorrow’s history, too, she said.

“As an instructor, I love that we take a day to consider the constitution document itself, and give students a chance to have their own copy for later reference, too.”

The candidates spoke about their thoughts on the constitution, the state constitution, its relevancy, enumerated powers, amendments, current issues and elections.

Dalton Hassig, 20, of Newton, is a history student at the campus and he thought the panel was an excellent opportunity to for political education and debate.

“I think it is beneficial because there are a lot of people that are politically enthused but maybe not as educated on issues, so I think it provides a good opportunity to educate those people on the workings of the system,” he said.

Most of students who attended the panel are under 21 years old, Hassig pointed out, and will be voting for years to come. He said it’s important that young peoplelearn as much as they can about politics now to have a better understanding and hear a variety of perspectives.

“I’m sure some people in the room had dissenting opinions concerning the issues which the candidates spoke of and I think that’s very important that there are quite a few differences of opinion as long as they are based on proper education. The difference of opinion provokes discussion where sometimes opinions can be changed to suit new information,” Hassig said.

Morrill said all major parties were invited although some representatives could not attend.

Laube is running for county supervisors and Heartsill is running a re-elect campaign for state representative in the 2016 general election Nov. 9.

hat is more precious than a children’s hand-bell choir ringing and sing “I’ve Got the Joy” on a Sunday morning?

Picture the 3, 4, 5 and 6-year-old’s in their little Sunday dresses and Sunday suits chiming multi-colored bells and singing the refrain, “I’ve go the joy, joy, joy down in my heart, Where?

Down in my heart” in unison and slightly off key. Their smiles radiate pure joy and innocent faith.

I lived this moment as a kid at our Des Moines northside Presbyterian church. And so did Marguerite.

www.newtondailynews.com | Thursday | Sept. 22, 2016

Trending Mike Mendenhall She was new to the United States by way of a former Soviet republic. This was the early 1990s, when the pain of Soviet oppression and turmoil in eastern Europe was ongoing and fresh in people’s minds. Marguerite spoke little English but was so happy to be in that church on American soil.

But Marguerite had an additional caveat. She had an intellectual disability. As a young child, I didn’t know much about her or what she had experienced in her youth, I just remember her sudden, unplanned trips to the front of the church on Sundays to share her joy with the people in the pews.

During that children’s hand-bell choir’s performance she stood alongside the kids and clapped to the beat, wanting to be included in the fun.

This would not be the last time Marguerite would make an impromptu march toward the pulpit. One Sunday during Pastor Terry’s sermon, she decided to walk up to the church leader, got down on one knee and repeatedly thank the man who was always uncomfortable receiving any praise.

Terry paused from his message to explain to the congregation that Marguerite had been trying for days to thank him for making her feel so at home in the church.

No one advertised or criticized Marguerite for her background. They did not ask about her upbringing, her faith or intentions. They saw her as a humble person who felt blessed by her present due to the rough circumstanc-

es of her past. A past which she didn’t quite understand.

Today’s Syrian refugee crisis — infused with refugee crises from dozens of other countries around the world caused famine, war, religious persecution, environmental and economic displacement — has again tested the resolve of the values we profess to hold. Our leaders need to look beyond the immediate geopolitical implications of giving those far away a sanctuary and a home. We need to see the long-term outcome of kindness is a peaceful world.

Will the American public let the fear of a few cause us to shut the door on the many? Will we reduce the plight and pain of others to a bowl or colored candies? I, for one, will not.

We have the joy, so give it.

Living off grid Before we ate, I helped Zach catch a marauding piglet that had escaped from its pen beside the house.

Zach had separated the piglet from its mama and litter because it wasn’t doing well. It needed some TLC. Ginnie and I were having supper at our friends’ house, Erin and Zach Griebahn, who live west of Mt. Pleasant on 30 acres of rolling farm land. The Griebahn’s have three small children, Jonathan, Eleanor and Benjamin. Erin cooked bacon-cheese burgers on a Coleman propane grill in the barn, because the wood-burning cook stove would make the house too hot. We ate outside at a picnic table, under a shade tree.

Chirping birds, crickets, and the buzz of bees from the Griebahn’s bee hives, serenaded us while we ate. The bacon on the cheeseburgers was home grown, and delicious. Zach, in characteristic fashion, finished his meal before any of us, because he likes the last bite to be as cold or hot as the first.

After supper, Zach and I walked up the hill to gather eggs from their three moveable chicken coops. After feeding and watering, Zach, with a handy dolly he made, moved the coops forward one cage length, to give the chickens fresh grass. He does this daily, and says he can really see the difference between the newly fertilized pasture, and the non-fertilized. And the chickens love the fresh grass and insects, clucking away contentedly as if talking.

The Griebahn’s live off grid — no Access Energy, no Rural Water, no propane delivery. They’re not hippies, they’re not Amish, they’re just a regular family who enjoy not being dependent on utilities that can abruptly stop or skyrocket in price. They do their laundry at a laundromat, buy ice for cold storage in coolers, and purchase drinking water. For now, that is. The newly constructed windmill behind their house is for pumping water from a spring-fed pond to the livestock — pigs and chickens, cattle in the future. Also in the future may be a water filtration system for drinking water, a solar-powered water heater, and a generator being designed by Zach and an electrical-engineer friend, that will be powered by the windmill. Currently, three solar panels on the south side of the house supply 12 volts of electricity for small LED lights that Zach built in Ball Mason jars. (There’s a 12-volt movement going around amongst back-to-nature people.) The 12 volts also recharge their cell phones, and powers the Wi-Fi and television. Yes, television. But, as of yet, the television is not for pulling in air-wave broadcasting. It’s for watching movies, documentaries, and educational DVDs. Erin and Zach homeschool their children. They enjoy being able to teach their kids about God without fear of ridicule. Zach was homeschooled, and is obviously bright and socially well adjusted. The kids may be the friendliest, most non-adult fearing children I have ever seen, helping their parents with chores, and naming the farm animals — Mike, Mary, Wilbur, etc.

Zach, Erin and the kids built their 550 sq ft house and barn. They have a gas-powered generator for the power tools. The house is heated by an authentic-looking pioneer cook stove that will drive them out of the house in the coldest of weather. They go through 4 – 5 cords of wood over the winter that they all take part in splitting. See their website at www.oldefood.com.

The Griebahns raise chickens, pigs, and soon-to-be cattle for customers. They have the meat slaughtered, butchered and packaged, then personally deliver the meat to the customer’s home — something called Community Supported Agriculture (CSA). Customers can actually come and visit their hog at the Olde Farm.

The animals are free range and antibiotic free.

Erin and Zach are 30 years old. Their entire approach to living, from the square footage of their house, to its location on the land, to the distance to the compost pile, has been meticulously calculated to make the most efficient use of their time. They both plan on living off grid up until old age, when carrying a bucket of feed or splitting wood may become too difficult. Their motto is, “Financial freedom through a drastically downsized standard of living.”

Constitution Week is Sept. 17-23 I would like to remind everyone that it is once again, the week that our United States Constitution was signed. It was signed Sept. 17, 1787 at the Pennsylvania State House (now Independence Hall) in Philadelphia, Pa. at 4 p.m.

I’m writing just to make sure each one of us doesn’t forget the brave patriots in our own families who fought and maybe gave their lives, so we can have the freedoms we so enjoy in the U.S.

Breckenridge is committed to House District 29 Thanks to a Republican governor, supported by a Republican controlled Iowa House, the state of Iowa is among the states with the worst air and water quality, a minimum wage that is not a living wage, along with disparity between male and female wages, privatized Medicaid that is a total mess, the closure of mental health facilities and the total disregard for those who need professional support for mental health issues, the shortage of nursing home inspections in Iowa, the give away of millions of our tax dollars to foreign and domestic corporations that only create a handful of jobs, and a total lack of adequate funding for public school funding. We cannot elect legislators who home school their children and believe they are concerned about public

today. Each generation has done its part to make sure we are free, and we thank you all for the service. Let’s never forget any sacrifice given.

I would also like to thank all the Newton school principals for participating in the Constitution pledge to mention something about the Constitution to their kids next week. Again thanks one and all. I would also like to thank Linda Kleplinger and Peck Day Care Center for their participation in the fun as the kids have drawn pictures of what they believe the Constitution

and freedom means to them. It’s a must see. Their pictures are being displayed at H&R Block (thank you Ione) and the Newton Public Library whom I also would like to thank for letting us use their beautiful windows to display in. Last but not least, trace your family tree back and see if you have a patriot or two in your family line. It’s fun. You may just be surprised how heroic your family was. All American patriots were brave. They had to be.

school funding.

For these concerns and more, I am supporting Wes Breckenridge for state representative, Iowa House District 29. Wes will work to improve the quality of Iowa’s air and water in our rivers, streams and lakes. Wes will work to raise Iowa’s minimum wage and close the gap between male and female wages. Wes has observed first-hand the mess made by privatizing Medicaid and will work to correct this windfall given to three private corporations.

And as a Newton law enforcement officer, West has first-hand experience dealing with individuals with mental health issues and will work to correct Branstad’s mistake. Wes also knows by reducing the number of nursing home inspectors, there is little or next to no oversight of nursing homes in Iowa. Wes will work to correct this problem. While it is important to create jobs in Iowa it is also just as important to be concerned about tax dollar give away. Wes will work to create

good-paying jobs while avoiding corporate welfare. Wes is well aware that inadequate school funding had caused our education system to fall behind and Wes supports our great teachers who provide an education to students. Wes is a strong supporter of veterans and the need for funding for veterans’ issues.

Through his 25 years of public service — 23 years Newton Police Department, as school resource officer, DARE instructor, drug task force officer, police department events co-coordinator, traffic information officer, public information officer, interim police chief, Prairie City police officer, Jasper County Sheriff ’s resources deputy, DMACC adjunct instructor — Wes Breckenridge has more than proven his commitment to our community and Iowa District 29.

Join me, Nov. 8 in support of Wes Breckenridge, a true Democrat, to represent Iowa House District 29.

Duck hunting seasons to start soon

Iowa has had a wet start to summer and now a wet end to summer filling wetlands and marshes across the state and flooding crop fields in certain areas. Adding to the mix that local Iowa ducks had a good hatch this spring and these young ducks are now spread out and using newly flooded areas for food and cover.

Regardless if you hunt from waders or a boat, the conditions are looking good heading ahead of Iowa’s duck hunting season opener.

“Right now there’s a lot of water out there and a lot of places for the ducks to go and they are taking advantage of that,” Orrin Jones, state waterfowl biologist with the Iowa Department of Natural Resources said. “With all these new options available, hunters may see fewer ducks in traditional places. Scouting will be particularly important this year.”

Jones said hunters who find these new areas frequented by ducks and can get access, have the potential for excellent hunting.

While the local ducks are enjoying the new areas, warm and stable weather has not moved many of the early migrating species into the state.

“If we get the right weather conditions, we could get an impressive migration,” Jones said. “If not, there are a lot of areas where the birds can get away to. I know it sounds like a broken record, but the best way hunters can have success is to spend time scouting and find the birds.”

The daily bag and possession limits for 2016 are unchanged from 2015.

The DNR posts wetland reports and weekly migration surveys on its website at http://www.iowadnr.gov/Hunting/Migratory-Game-Birds.

Outdoor Expo this weekend The opportunity for families to experience the fun of Iowa’s outdoors is right around the corner. The Iowa Outdoor Expo is Saturday and Sunday at Waterworks Park in Des Moines, which coincides with National Hunting and Fishing Day Saturday.

The Outdoor Expo allows attendees the opportunity to try many different activities in a safe, controlled en-

vironment. There will be opportunities to try fishing, bow fishing, canoeing and kayaking, outdoor cooking, trap shooting, archery and more. A full list of activities is available at www. iowadnr.gov/expo.

“This is a family friendly event with plenty of activities designed for people of all skill levels. We have instructors on hand to teach the activities, offer guidance and tips for

them to enjoy the activity when they are on their own,” said Megan Wisecup, hunter education administrator for the Iowa Department of Natural Resources.

While attendance and activities has grown each year, what has not grown is the entry fee — it is still free entry to everyone. The Iowa Outdoor Expo is open from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m.

Saturday and 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Sunday.

Crisis Intervention Services forming new youth council OSKALOOSA — Crisis Intervention Services is excited to announce the formation of a new Youth Media Advisory Council.

This initiative is one of only three competitive grants funded by the Iowa Coalition Against Sexual Assault’s Violence Prevention Program.

The council will bring youth leaders from high school across south-central Iowa together to talk about creative and innovative ways to prevent gender-based violence and bullying in their schools and communities.

CIS recognizes that social media and digital technology are powerful forces for social change. They can be harnessed to send messages about healthy relationships and violence prevention, as evidenced by national campaigns like “I am a Witness” and “The Bully Project.” Young people

Husband’s new acting career gets bad reviews from family DEAR ABBY: I have been happily married for 20 years to an amazing man, “Boyd.” Eight months ago, he left his administrative job to pursue his lifelong dream of becoming an actor.

He is working hard on auditions and shoots, and I am very proud of him.

However, when he left his job, it felt to me like a pronouncement rather than the result of our usual mutual decisions.

Unfortunately, I communicated my frustration to family members at the time, and they have completely written Boyd off. They don’t want to talk to him or hear news about him, and he is not welcome in their homes.

Boyd didn’t take this well. He has, in return, written THEM off. It has reached the point that I can’t share news about them with him. I have had to take down family photos — which was my choice — but it felt necessary.

The irony is my family felt he had created undue stress for me, but the breach in family harmony has been far more stressful than my husband’s career change. Any thoughts on how to bring detente to this situation? It’s keeping me up at night. — ACTOR’S WIFE IN ATLANTA DEAR WIFE: Have you told your family that by shunning your husband they have caused you more stress than his decision — however one-sided it may have been — to become an actor?

If you haven’t you should, because it is causing discord in your marriage. Your relatives do not have the right to punish your husband for his career choice, and you should not have encouraged or allowed them to alienate him.

You may want to remind them that you and Boyd are a unit, and if they care about more contact with you, they will bury the hatchet. Or perhaps you could convince everyone to agree to family counseling. The ball is now in your court because you are the person

who started it rolling.

DEAR ABBY: My husband and I have been married for a very long time and have a good marriage. However, he has one annoying habit that drives me crazy. We live in a small house, and he has stacks and piles of things lying around collecting dust and creating clutter.

When I ask him to put them away, he says just to leave them where they are so he will remember to look at them “someday.” Abby, these are videos, magazines, books or paperwork.

It could be anything, really, like some gadget he wants to check out.

A neat and tidy house is important to me. This is nothing new; it has been going on during our entire marriage.

What can I say to him to get him to change his ways? — ANTI-CLUTTER IN IOWA DEAR ANTI-CLUTTER: Probably not much at this point. But I can offer this insight. The tendency to do what your husband is doing is a sign of OCD, an anxiety disorder. For your husband, letting go of things he “may” want to look at “sometime” can be emotionally upsetting. A doctor might be able to help your husband, but that would necessitate your husband admitting that what he has been doing is causing a problem.

1 Flooding follows heavy rainfall in northeast Iowa

HAWKEYE — Authorities say flash flooding is occurring across several counties in northeast Iowa, thanks to heavy rains.

The National Weather Service said Thursday that 1 to 2 inches an hour have fallen in spots, and more thunderstorms are expected to produce another 1 to 2 inches. The same storms also may also be capable of producing hail and strong winds. The service says water is covering some streets in Hawkeye and says there’s water over the pavement on U.S. Highway 18 west of Hawkeye.

Man found guilty of killing girlfriend last year VINTON — A Benton County jury has found David Miller guilty of a lesser offense in the death of his girlfriend, whose body was found beside a stolen truck in Miller’s driveway last year.

Miller was convicted Wednesday of voluntary manslaughter in the Oct. 25 death of 25-year-old Sabrina Janish, of Shellsburg. Prosecutors had sought a first-degree murder conviction.

Ex-Burlington councilman seeks new trial in sex case BURLINGTON — A former Burlington city councilman found guilty last month of four felony counts of sexual abuse involving teenage girls is asking for a new trial.

Chris King, 42, argues in his motion that the testimony of the girls was not sufficient enough to warrant his guilty verdicts. He also says heavy media coverage of the twoweek trial violated his constitutional rights.

The victims, who ranged in age from 16 to 18, had said they met King through his photography business.

DES MOINES — A special election has been scheduled to fill the District 45 seat left open by the recent death of Iowa Democratic Sen. Joe Seng. Gov. Terry Branstad says Wednesday a special election will be held Dec. 27 to select a senator to represent the eastern Iowa district that includes Davenport. Branstad says he wanted to hold the special election on Nov. 8 to save money. The county auditor said the move would have complicated ballot printing and delayed delivery of absentee ballots.

Task force looking into security, pipeline protesters’ clash FARGO, N.D. (AP) — A joint task force of North Dakota and federal officials is investigating a clash between Dakota Access pipeline protesters and private security guards earlier this month, a county sheriff announced Tuesday.

The Morton County Sheriff ’s Department is heading up the probe of the Sept. 3 incident on private land, after which private security guards and protesters reported injuries. Tribal officials say about 30 protesters were pepper-sprayed and some were bitten by dogs at the construction site near the Standing Rock Indian Reservation.

The task force includes members of the Morton and Mercer County sheriff ’s departments, the state Bureau of Criminal Investigation and the federal Bureau of Indian Affairs.

Morton County Sheriff Kyle Kirchmeier said the BIA is representing Native American tribes.

Kirchmeier said the investigation will determine which firms were hired to provide security that day and whether they were licensed. The task force also is looking into whether tribal artifacts were disturbed at the site as the Standing Rock Sioux tribe has argued.

“I am using all tools possible to insure this investigation is carried out with no bias toward Dakota Access pipeline nor the pipeline protesters,” Kirchmeier said in a statement.

would not name any of the security firms being investigated.

The 1,172-mile Dakota Access pipeline is to begin in the western oil patch in North Dakota and run through South Dakota and Iowa before ending in Illinois. The pipeline is being built by Dallas-based Energy Transfer Partners, which says it intends to finish the project despite numerous legal delays. Most recently, three federal agencies ordered a temporary halt to construction on U.S. Army Corps of Engineers’ land near a reservoir on the Missouri River in North Dakota and asked Energy Transfer Partners to stop work on a 40-mile span; ETP hasn’t indicated whether it heeded the government’s request that it “voluntarily pause”

work.

A North Dakota state agency that regulates private investigation and security firms is also looking into the incident.

Monte Rogneby, an attorney representing North Dakota Private Investigation and Security Board, did not immediately return a message seeking comment.

The pipeline company

declined to comment on either investigation.

Standing Rock Tribal Chairman David Archambault II told members of the United Nations Human Rights Commission in Geneva, Switzerland, on Tuesday that human rights have been violated by the construction of the pipeline and the actions of law enforcement.

Third Ron Paul aide gets prison time for campaign violations DES MOINES (AP) — The deputy manager of Ron Paul’s 2012 presidential campaign was sentenced Wednesday to three months in prison for conspiring to cover up campaign payments to a former Iowa state senator, after a judge determined he played a larger role than two other aides who were spared prison time.

Like his two colleagues, Dimitri Kesari was accused as part of a scheme to file false contribution reports with the Federal Election Commission. He also received six months of home confinement, two years’ probation and a $10,000 fine.

Judge John Jarvey found Kesari had played more of an active role in

arranging and concealing $73,000 in payments to a video production company that were passed on to former state Sen. Kent Sorenson.

He dropped support for Michele Bachmann and endorsed Paul six days before the 2012 Iowa caucuses.

On Tuesday, campaign chairman Jesse Benton and manager John Tate were sentenced to probation, home confinement and a fine — but no prison time — for the same crimes.

All three have said they broke no laws.

“Dimitri actually read a letter to the judge asking the judge to make more mercy on Mr. Tate and Mr.

Benton than on himself because they didn’t know about this he did,” said Kesari’s attorney Jesse Binnall.

“We can disagree whether or not it was illegal all day long but he admitted to the court today that he made a serious mistake and judge Jarvey appropriately tempered the need for some justice here based on what he felt with an appropriate level of mercy.”

Binnall said Kesari, who lives in Hamilton, Virginia, is allowed to report to the U.S. Bureau of Prisons at a time to be arranged to begin serving the sentence.

The men plan to appeal their convictions to the U.S. 8th Circuit Court of Appeals.

Groups wants Branstad to back moratorium on hog confinements DES MOINES (AP) — A new consortium of environmental groups is asking Gov. Terry Branstad to support a statewide moratorium on new and expanded hog confinement operations because of polluted waterways.

The Iowa Alliance for Responsible Agriculture announced itself at a Wednesday Capitol news conference and sought Branstad’s backing.

The alliance, which includes more than 20 groups, wants the moratorium in place until the state improves water quality in lakes and streams. Alliance

members blame hog confinements for polluting waterways and creating health problems for nearby residents.

Branstad spokesman Ben Hammes rejected the alliance’s proposal, calling it an “extreme” plan that would hurt agriculture and Iowa’s economy.

The alliance is separate from the recently formed Iowa’s Water and Land Legacy Coalition, comprised of agriculture, business and conservation groups that support increasing the sales tax to fund natural resource programs.

ISU research park faces big loss in firm’s bankruptcy AMES (AP) — The Iowa State University Research Park is facing a major financial loss after a once-promising tenant was allowed to fall behind on rent for years before going bankrupt.

The Ames research park, a nonprofit that is connected to the university, says it is likely the single biggest creditor of Etrema Products and is owed roughly $480,000 in uncollected rent.

Research Park director Steve Carter said Wednesday that the park considered evicting Etrema but gave the company more time as it sought to find new markets for its products.

The company, which had been at the park for 20 years, was seeking to commercialize Terfenol-D, a metal that was thought to have numerous applications.

“We thought they had a good plan,” Carter said. “They were pursuing some new opportunities that seemed logical and have good potential, but they simply were not able to realize them in the timeframe that they had.”

Carter said the com-

pany made “irregular” rent payments and the debt grew over time. The company signed a lease in 2008 that required monthly payments of roughly $17,000. Last year, Etrema downsized its office space and its monthly rent was reduced to $12,000.

Carter, who has been at the research park for 15 years, said the case marks the first time the park has faced such a loss from a tenant’s bankrtupcy. But he said the park would not make any changes going forward and would continue working with tenants on a case-bycase basis.

“Economic development is a primary part of our mission.

We probably are more flexible than others,” he said.

It’s unclear what percentage of its debt the park might receive in the bankruptcy proceeding. More than 100 other creditors are seeking money. The trustee appointed by the government wrote in a court filing last week that the research park’s lien on Etrema’s property in its lease agreement “is avoidable” under the law and was “never perfected.”

Ira Five Continued from Page 1A Jones, who lived the longest of the five, passed away in 1968.

He was the grandfather of Newton attorney and Jasper County native John Billingsley.

While World War II and subsequent conflicts were well-documented and its combat veterans’ experiences chronicled. World War I — known at the time as the “Great War” — the service records and battlefield experiences were not nearly as well-documented.

According to the Iowa Genealogical Society, more than 500,000 Iowans between the ages of 18 and 45 registered for the draft during World War I. Iowa sent 114,242 men and women to serve during this war.

One of the first U.S. soldiers killed in combat in World War I was Carroll County native Merle Hay — for whom the Des Moines-area street, neighborhood and shopping mall are named. The first U.S. woman to die of injuries in a World War I combat zone — Marion Crandell, formerly a French teacher at St. Katharine’s School in Davenport — was also an Iowan.

Billingsley said in the 1910s, there were man Iowa veterans around who had served in the Civil War, and they were highly regarded in their central Iowa communities.

“These guys grew up in a society where Civil War veterans were prominent in the community, and were honored regularly,” said Billingsley, a West Point graduate and U.S. Army veteran. “World War I was something followed and talked about, as a

Jason W. Brooks /Daily News The five Ira-area men who signed up for the U.S. Army together and served in World War I are acknowledged as part of the Jasper County Veterans Memorial outside the courthouse in Newton.

Submitted photo Zenas C. Jones, shown here with his wife, Alta Cross Jones, was the grandfather of Newton attorney John Billingsley. Jones was one of the Ira Five, a group of young Jasper County men who enlisted in the U.S. Army together and served in World War I almost 100 years ago.

distant problem, until the Germans started sinking too many ships and the French and British were losing the war. A few days after word made it to Iowa that Congress had declared war, these five guys from Ira were among the first guys anywhere to sign up for the cause by enlisting in the Army.”

In April 1916, Ray Echternacht of Ira organized the first and only Boy Scout Troop in Ira. He later became the first known man from the Ira area to enlist in the Army when he did so on July 6, 1916 — about nine months before the U.S. officially entered World War I. He ended up serving with the National Guard along the Mexican border and later overseas.

A large flag was flown in Ira daily on a tall, wooden flag pole during the day in Ira in the months leading up to the U.S. involvement in the war. Congress de-

clared war on Germany in an nearly unanimous vote on April 6, 1917, and like many other American towns, Ira was able to soon get the news that the U.S, was going to war.

After getting the news by way of the telegraph housed in the Ira railroad depot, northwest Jasper County residents learned what millions of other Americans were realizing.

The United States was going to war.

Some of the men got the patriotic urge and decided to run the American flag, with its 48 stars, up the pole that night. Later, a heavy wind came up, and in the morning, both the flag and the pole were found on the ground.

The pole was replaced with a shorter one. The Ira flag was no longer flown at night after that incident.

Cardinals open 4A district play with Bobcats

By Jocelyn Sheets Newton Daily News No looking ahead. No looking back.

Newton High’s Cardinals are focused on the task at hand, which is beating Marshalltown’s Bobcats in Friday’s Class 4A District 4 opening football game. It’s Newton’s Home c om ing and the C a r d i n a l s Pregame have had to Outlook deal with all the distractions of the event this week.

“After the game at Burlington, I told our players to enjoy all the homecoming festivities. We want them to because those are for the students,” Newton head coach Ed Ergenbright said. “I told them when they head to football practice to be focused only on football because we have work to do.

They’ve done that, and we’ve had three solid practices so far this week despite the challenges of the hotter weather.”

Newton and Marshalltown kickoff at 7:30 p.m. Friday for a 4A District 4 contest at H.A. Lynn Stadium. The freshman game is at 4:45 p.m.

In between games, Newton’s 1966 Central Iowa Conference championship football team will be honored.

Homecoming activities are also scheduled.

District 4 has two undefeated teams — Newton and Class 4A top-ranked West Des Moines Valley. Both teams are 4-0 going into the first week of district play. Fort Dodge stands at 3-1 and Indianola is 2-2. Marshalltown and Southeast Polk each are 1-3.

“There’s no doubt Valley is the best football team in the state of Iowa. Fort Dodge is a team with fantastic young talent. Southeast Polk plays tough competition always and Indianola is a decent team,” Ergenbright said. “We’re not

Jocelyn Sheets/Daily News Newton High’s defense has made plays when it needed to throughout the first four games of the season. Junior Zach Combs wraps up Burlington quarterback L.T. Beck with teammate Clayton Baltisberger, right, coming in to help on the tackle in last Friday’s win at Burlington.

playing any of those teams this week. It is Marshalltown.

Newton and Marshalltown have a long standing rivalry, and it’s going to be a battle.”

The Bobcats are coming off a 41-7 loss to Waterloo West.

Marshalltown and Newton have one opponent in common through the first four weeks as both teams defeated Waterloo East. The Bobcats dropped their first two games of the season to Ames and Mason City.

In the past two seasons, Newton and Marshalltown have played in non-district action. Newton won 45-20 at Marshalltown in 2014. Last

year, the Bobcats pulled out a 24-21 overtime win in Newton.

“Our kids are excited to play at home after two road games. They like playing at home in front of our fans, feeding off that energy,” Ergenbright said. “It’s going to be a good 4A football game.

We’re taking these district games one at a time.”

Newton has the top rushing offense among the District 4 teams through four games. The Cardinals have 1,182 yards on 181 carries compared to the Bobcats’ 409 yards on 111 carries.

Seniors Jordan Norvell and Reese Rosenquist lead the Car-

dinal rushing attack as both average more than 8 yards a carry. Norvell had 294 yards on 36 carries and Rosenquist has 31 carries for 256 yards.

Toss in junior quarterback Garrett Sturtz with 146 yards on the ground and junior running back Jaron Roush with 146 yards, teams have to concentrate on stopping the running game against Newton.

There is depth in the backfield with Josh Miravallis, who returns after three weeks on the sideline with a back problem, Josh Miller, Brady Smith and Logan Zibert.

Marshalltown’s running game is paced by senior Mar-

quis Haynes, who has 256 yards on 56 carries. The Bobcat quarterback Sam Irwn is 49-of-101 passing for 618 yards with six touchdowns and three interceptions.

Smith is Newton’s top defensive player going into the game with 28 solo tackles, six assisted tackles and one quarterback sack. Junior Zach Combs has 16 solo stops and four assisted tackles along with 2.5 quarterback sacks. Rosenquist and junior Joe Busch have 17 solo tackles each.

CMB will be without head coach for Homecoming game

By Troy Hyde Newton Daily News For the first time in his 28 years of coaching high school football, Collins-Maxwell/ Baxter coach Rob Luther will not be on the sidelines or at the complex when his Raiders host East Marshall for CMB’s final Homecoming football game in Baxter on Friday.

en more games. That’s all the sports world will get to enjoy the greatest broadcaster to ever grace us with his presence.

Vin Scully is set to retire on Oct. 2 after 67 years of broadcasting Los Angeles Dodgers baseball games.

And what a career it was.

He has had many iconic moments on the microphone. He has called 19 no-hitters and three perfect games.

Two of the greatest left-handed pitchers of all-time were both Dodgers and they pitched at the beginning (Sandy Koufax) and the end (Clayton Kershaw) of his career.

I am a sports radio and podcast junkie. I subscribe to a lot of different podcasts and try to catch several different sports talk radio shows whenever I get a chance.

Recently, Dan Patrick and Rich Eisen both had Scully on for interviews. He is masterful, humble and in

This & That Troy Hyde awe of all the attention he’s getting.

Scully truly doesn’t believe he’s that big of a deal. We are all honored to have heard one of his calls. He is more honored that he was lucky enough to get put in the position he has owned for 67 years.

When he was on with Rich Eisen he was asked which one of his iconic calls was his favorite.

You can find his top five calls of alltime on youtube.com. It’s debatable which one is best, and it probably has a lot to do with what team or what sport you like or follow the most.

For me, as a live-long San Francisco 49ers fan, my favorite Scully call is the Joe Montana to Dwight Clark NFC title game touchdown pass play in 1982.

Of course, my 3-year-old daughter is older than I was when that play happened, but I re-live moments like that from my teams often.

“The Catch” was a fantastic play in

Wes Stover and Max Seeman will share play-calling duties Friday night. Stover usually spends his time on Friday nights in the coach’s box but will be down on the field with Seeman when the Mustangs come to town. That moves assistant coach Mark Schultheis into the box for one game.

“The headsets will stay the same,” Luther said. “Stover and Seeman have input on what I call, so it won’t be too big of a deal. A lot of our offense is scripted anyway.”

Luther said the first 10

sports. Cowboy fans hate it. Niner fans love it. Scully makes it even better.

There are plenty of others. He was on the microphone when Kirk Gibson hit his legendary walk-off home run against the Oakland A’s in the 1988 World Series. “In a year that has been so improbable, the impossible has happened,” Scully shouted after at least 30 seconds of crowd noise. He was great at shutting up when it was time to shut up and let the crowd tell the story.

He also had the privilege to call the famous 1986 World Series that included the infamous Bill Buckner “between the legs” error that led the New York Mets past the Boston Red Sox. Scully was present for a Koufax perfect game in 1965. My dad was just starting kindergarten that year.

Scully’s answer to which call was his favorite was Hank Aaron’s 715th home run in 1974. The impact of that homer by an African-American man at that time was pretty special to Scully, he said on the Eisen show.

Scully has been calling games since the 1950s. That was around the time color television was invented. He broadcasted over the sound waves of

many transistor radios.

Scully doesn’t understand social media. He doesn’t care to either.

According to Scully, the best player he ever saw was Willie Mays. The most exciting player was Jackie Robinson.

He called games of players who are now managers. Mike Scioscia was on Gibson’s team the year he hit the walkoff homer in 1988. Scioscia is the current Los Angeles Angels manager.

Scully doesn’t take credit for anything he’s accomplished. He sees it as just him being lucky to be on the radio on that particular day.

All of the attention he’s getting as his career winds down is uncomfortable for Scully. To him, he’s just a man who grew up listening to football games under his bed on his old-school radio while eating saltines.

“Hearing the roar of the crowd absolutely intoxicated me (when I was a kid),” Scully said on the Dan Patrick Show.

No one has done it better. No one will ever do it better. In 10 days, we are truly losing a legend.

Adrian Peterson to have knee surgery, season in flux EDEN PRAIRIE, Minn.

(AP) — Adrian Peterson will have surgery on his right knee to repair a torn meniscus, putting his season and perhaps his 10-year run with Minnesota in question.

The Vikings have held off for now on placing the franchise’s all-time leading rusher on injured reserve, though, waiting for the medical report that will influence that decision. Peterson was hurt on Sunday night during the victory over Green Bay, needing assistance off the field after his knee was slightly twisted while being tackled at the end of a 5-yard run.

Peterson, 16th on the NFL’s all-time rushing list, has only 50 yards on 31 attempts this season. He told ESPN on Wednesday morning that the type of tear he was diagnosed with typically requires a minimum recovery time of three to four months. But Vikings coach Mike Zimmer said the timetable for Peterson’s return won’t be clear until after the procedure.

“Everything is possible,” Zimmer said. “It could be season ending. It could be three weeks, four weeks. I don’t know.”

Peterson made a swift recovery from a torn ACL in his left knee suffered in the second-to-last game of the 2011 season. He came back with a flourish, in time for the 2012 opener, and won the league MVP award with 2,097 yards rushing while leading the Vikings to the playoffs.

Peterson won another NFL rushing title last year, but he’s 31 now with a contract that might not make financial sense in its current state for the Vikings to carry next year. The scheduled salary cap hit for 2017 is $18 million, so even if

Turnovers have plagued the Raiders’ offense this season.

CMB out-gained West Marshall by nearly 200 yards last week but still needed a late touchdown to win because it committed three turnovers. CMB has turned it over multiple times in each game this season.

“We are moving the ball. We are right there,” Luther said. “We just have too many penalties and too many turnovers to get anything accomplished. We have to get it cleaned up.”

East Marshall’s offense is mostly aerial. The Mustangs, partly because they have allowed eight sacks, averages only 35 rush yards per game. Tyler DeBondt has thrown for 857 yards and five touchdowns with six interceptions.

“Our strength defensively is stopping the run, too,” Luther said. “Our defense has played pretty well all year. We just need to get off the field on third and fourth downs. We’ll have to change our coverages up. We can’t give up big plays.”

Zane Johnson is DeBondt’s No. 1 option in the passing game. He has hauled in 22 passes for 254 yards and a TD. DeBondt also likes to go to Kamren Hoskins and Dru Bolliver. Hoskins has 18 catches, 114 yards and three scores, while Bolliver has 13 receptions for 154 yards.

The Mustang defense is led by Noah Bandstra, who has 41 tackles.

Luther said CMB likely will stick with a two-quarterback attack. Senior Hunter McWhirter re-aggravated a knee injury last week against West Marshall, but he should be able to share snaps with junior Braydon Aker, according to Luther.

Both teams come into the game with 1-3 records.

CMB is 1-1 in 2A District 3, while the Mustangs are 0-2. They lost 48-6 to Roland-Story last week.

East Marshall’s only win was a 6-3 non-district triumph against Waterloo Columbus Catholic.

The final CMB Homecoming game will kickoff off at 7:30 p.m. in Baxter.

PCM (3-1, 2-0) at Central Lee (3-1, 2-0), 7:30 p.m.

The winner of this 2A District 6 matchup likely will have the inside track to a district title. Both teams have won three straight games after dropping their openers.

Central Lee does most of its offensive damage on the ground. The team has attempted 12 passes this season and rushed for 1,292 yards in four games.

Four players have gained at least 160 yards on the ground, led by Adam Rooney’s 473 yards and six touchdowns. Austin Gaylord has 319 rushing yards and two scores, while Tyler Hopp has gained 160 yards in 16 carries.

AP photo Minnesota Vikings running back Adrian Peterson (28) is helped off the field after getting injured during the second half against the Green Bay Packers in Minneapolis on Sunday. Peterson will undergo surgery on his right knee to repair a torn meniscus and Vikings coach Mike Zimmer says the star running back could return this season.

he were fully healthy this season his status was bound to reach a crossroad. The Vikings could try to bring him back at a reduced rate with a restructuring, but he might prefer to be released and test the market for the first time in his career.

That’s a matter for another day, though. The Vikings (2-0) have a visit to defending NFC champion Carolina on Sunday, with Jerick McKinnon set to take Peterson’s place as the featured running back. Matt Asiata has proven to be a capable backup,

“I have a lot of confidence in those two guys. I think they’re both different types of runners, but I think the combination of the two can help us,” Zimmer said.

The Vikings also signed Ronnie Hillman, who had a career-high 863 yards and seven touchdowns rushing last season for Denver’s Super Bowl-winning team.

“I haven’t been here long, but I think we’ve got a great group of running backs,” quarterback Sam Bradford said. “I think the guys behind him are

Quarterback Blake Burgess is 3-of-5 this season with 104 yards and two TDs. He has rushed for four scores. Defensively, Burgess has three picks, too.

Central Lee has picked off six passes and has 14 fumble recoveries. Jared Brisby leads the defense with 33.5 tackles and two sacks.

PCM will travel 128 miles to play this game.

The Mustang defense has allowed 18 points in their last three games since losing 42-20 to 1A No. 2 Pella Christian in the season opener.

Winfield-Mt. Union (1-3, 1-1) at Lynnville-Sully (4-0, 2-0), 7 p.m.

The Hawks are 4-0 for the first time in at least 10 years, and the Class A No. 7 Hawks could have another banner day against a team that was defeated

by Cardinal in Week 3.

In Week 4, Lynnville-Sully defeated Cardinal, 53-0, behind four TD runs by Evan Squires and two TD passes from Elijah Collins.

Ly nnvil le-S ully has allowed 12 points this season, and the defense has collected three shutouts. The Hawks haven’t allowed a point during district play.

Winfield-Mt. Union’s lone win this season came by forfeit last week to Danville.

Danville started the season with 15 players but had only nine healthy bodies for last week’s game and was forced to forfeit.

Colfax-Mingo (0-4, 0-2) at Grand View Christian (0-4, 0-2), 7 p.m.

The Tigerhawks and Thunder are looking for their first win after struggling in the first four weeks.

Colfax-Mingo made significant strides last week during a loss to Class A No. 10 Belle Plaine, but the Tigerhawks were shut out in the second half during a 40-13 loss.

The Tigerhawks have been outscored 181-13 this season, but Grand View Christian has allowed 216 points and scored just 45 this season.

In Class A District 5 action, Grand View Christian has been outscored 158-25.

The Thunder have surrendered at least 369 rushing yards in each game this season. Southeast Warren rushed for 441 yards and gained 507 total yards in the season opener, while Martensdale-St. Marys gained 369 rushing yards and 573 total yards in its win over the GVC in the second week.

The district games were even worse. Against Belle Plaine in Week 3, the Thunder surrendered 466 rushing yards and 602 total yards. BGM gained 487 rushing yards and 652 total yards in last week’s win.

eager for the opportunity.”

Already without quarterback Teddy Bridgewater, who went down with a massive knee injury on Aug. 30 during a routine practice drill, the Vikings must also move on without their starting left tackle Matt Kalil.

Kalil was placed on injured reserve Wednesday with a lingering hip problem that he played through in the first two games. He will require surgery that Zimmer said the team believes will be season ending.

T.J. Clemmings, the starter at right tackle last year, will take over for Kalil.

“At this point and time I think it’s hard to find left tackles that are on the street,” Zimmer said. “We’re planning on going with what we’ve got.”

The Vikings haven’t given up on their chase for a championship, though. Bradford had a brilliant debut against the Packers in Bridgewater’s place, and McKinnon and Asiata were a relatively productive tandem in 2014 when Peterson was sidelined during the fallout from a child abuse case.

“They’re resilient. They’re tough. They’re competitive,” Zimmer said.

“Obviously we’ve had a few setbacks, but I think we can go back to last year and think about some of the things that happened. We’re not the type of team that’s going to sit back and cry about what’s happened. We’re going to go forward. Try, like I’ve said before, to find a way.”

The Vikings are 10-14 without Peterson, over the 24 games he’s missed over the past nine seasons.

“That’s our identity and that’s how we’re built. We’re going to continue to stay that way,” Zimmer said.

Arenado, Marquez lift Rockies to win over Cardinals DENVER (AP) — The St. Louis Cardinals picked up a win before a pitch was even thrown when reserve outfielder Jose Martinez captured a playful, pregame staredown with Colorado reliever Carlos Estevez.

Too bad for the Cardinals that didn’t count in the standings. They sure could’ve used it.

Nolan Arenado hit a grand slam, German Marquez pitched five solid innings for his first major league win and the Rockies slowed the Cardinals’ playoff chase with an 11-1 victory on Wednesday.

The Cardinals, who had won four straight, entered the day tied with New York and San Francisco atop the NL wild-card standings. The Mets and Giants both played later.

Arenado broke open the game in the second with his NL-leading 39th homer of the season.

Luke Weaver (1-4) was roughed up by the Rockies, surrendering seven hits and six runs in two innings. Before this game, the right-hander had allowed 12 earned runs in his last seven starts combined.

This was a memorable day for Marquez (1-0), who made his first big league start after three appearances out of the bullpen. He allowed one run and struck out three.

At 21 years, 212 days, Marquez was the second-youngest pitcher in Rockies’ history to earn his first win, the team announced. The youngest was Jamey Wright (21-206).

The hard-throwing Marquez was acquired in January as part of the deal that sent outfielder Corey Dickerson to Tampa Bay. Marquez pitched a majority of the season for Double-A Hartford.

Rutgers AD sorry for drinking at rowdy party PISCATAWAY, N.J. (AP) — Rutgers Athletic Director Pat Hobbs has apologized after a video of him downing a beer at a school-sponsored tailgate party was posted online.

The video shows Hobbs speaking to the crowd Saturday at a tailgate party dubbed, “The Alley” ahead of the football game against New Mexico before being egged on to drink a beer by fans.

Hobbs tells NJ.com he felt the party was getting out of control and he was addressing the crowd out of concern “for the safety and well-being of our students.”

Rutgers said Tuesday it would be shutting down the tailgate “due to safety concerns.”

NJ.com reports school officials say the first tailgate this year drew 500 to 800 students, but social media boosted the attendance for Saturday’s party to 2,500 to 3,000 students.

Astrograph

Welcome to the official start of fall. The sun moves into Libra to rally for equality of daylight and night light. The fall equinox has been celebrated since ancient times, and the party will continue in thankful hearts. The fruits of our efforts are ripe on the vine, symbolically, at least. Harvest them.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Sept.

22). This year you’ll do a lot of visualizing. You’ll see yourself getting and holding what you want. You’ll mentally walk yourself through the process.

If you feel yourself trying too hard, back up and get grounded. You’re enough as you are right now. November and May represent financial

highs. You’ll travel in June.

Cancer and Taurus adore you.

Your lucky numbers are: 40, 33, 28, 31 and 19.

ARIES (March 21-April 19).

Unsettled? Stay flexible. The fact that you don’t know what’s going to come up next is a good thing. This new path also has many desirable options to please you.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20).

Business cards, shopping lists, party plans, requests to friends, tokens, coupons, prayers -consider it all your research.

This will piece together to form something beautiful, artistic and unique.

Thombert practices continuous improvement with the goal of meeting world class standards for manufacturing. This is a unique opportunity where you can make a big difference.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21).

People say that you can’t make someone love you. Privately you think, “Well maybe (SET ITAL) they (END ITAL) can’t, but I can.” And you may very well be right. You certainly have your secret charms today.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22).

You have no idea the value of your support. A kind word, a prop, a leg up -- when you are able to give this at the perfect moment, it will mean more to your people than they’ll ever be able to articulate.

CANCER (June 22-July 22).

They don’t know you well, but they do know you a little.

They have a one-dimensional version of you at best. Today the relationship will progress, allowing for more insight all around.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23).

The small differences between you and a loved one will melt away. You have a more mature way of handling your relationship now, which, oddly enough, includes a lot of playfulness.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). They are listening to you, but they really aren’t understanding what you’re saying. The interpretations will vary wildly.

This will amuse or annoy you accordingly.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21).

So many people don’t have a clue about what they really want. You do know, and this is your moment. Stay focused.

Visualize the smooth and swift attainment of your goal.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Socializing is a lot more fun when you bring your own crew with you. Your nearest and dearest make an excellent entourage, so bring them and increase your comfort zone.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20).

What you do to honor and maintain your friendships will not infringe upon your romantic life in the least. What you do for one friend will enhance every friendship you have.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). What has stopped you from meeting face to face? It’s still the best way, and it also takes a lot more guts. It’s time to put yourself in the mix again in real time. Don’t let those social skills die a digital death.

COPYRIGHT 2016 CREATORS.COM

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18).

Some of your friendships have been more abiding and central to your life than even the most romantic of your ties. This is the perfect day to acknowledge that, either out loud or in your heart. Both ways will count.

by Hub Arkush

Is dysfunction a contagious disease in D.C.?

Based on the fumbles, interceptions and false starts that have become a hallmark in Washington since Daniel Snyder took ownership of the team, it should be no surprise that the NFC “Least’s” surprise 2015 champion is somewhat in disarray just two weeks into the season. But the Way We Hear It, the varying levels of operation at which the mess is spreading have to be cause for new concern.

First, we’ll report that according to our sources, head coach Jay Gruden appears to be more a victim than a cause of the current confusion.

Some NFL insiders questioned Gruden’s readiness and worth when Snyder tabbed him as his sixth head coach since buying the team in 1999, but as Marty Schottenheimer, Steve Spurrier, Joe Gibbs, Jim Zorn and Mike Shanahan all learned before him, Washington can be a very difficult place to work.

You don’t need a ton of sources to know that Schottenheimer, Gibbs and Shanahan are all highly qualified coaches who failed trying to work and coexist in D.C. We can give Snyder a pass for not getting that Spurrier apparently just didn’t really care – or should we? – and Zorn was a wild hare he just needed to tame.

Gruden has, in fact, given the team its most professional appearance in years, getting his feet on the ground with a 4-12 2014 after inheriting Shanahan’s 3-13 club, and then making a fivegame improvement and division leap from worst to first last year, while making Kirk Cousins look like a Pro Bowl quarterback in the process.

But therein lies a great deal of the rub. Through two weeks of 2016, Cousins has looked very much like a fourth-round pick forced into action by the team’s rush to rid itself of 2012 NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year Robert Griffin III. We know according to multiple sources it was Snyder who was anxious to mortgage the team’s future for RGIII, and it was Snyder who used RGIII to sabotage Shanahan, but it is unclear who was in a hurry to cut the cord.

We’ve also heard in a number of circles that it was team president Bruce Allen, a winner of the gene pool from his dad George but with no football experience of his own, who couldn’t resist the temptation to spend tens of millions of Snyder’s wealth on Josh Norman and that he had no trouble at all getting Snyder on board.

According to our sources, Gruden’s and GM Scot McCloughan’s opinions of the move weren’t

Dan Snyder AP photo

deemed all that relevant, although it is unclear how strongly either tried to resist if at all.

Norman is a very good cornerback, but he is not the best available even though he is now the highest paid. Nor does he fit like a glove in defensive coordinator Joe Barry’s defense.

That, along with the fact that he is at times a painful pimple in the Washington locker room and on the sidelines, is why Carolina was anxious to see him go.

Finally, there is McCloughan, recognized as an excellent judge of NFL talent but also saddled with some well-documented off-the-field challenges, who had a rather strange offseason.

Washington had huge needs on all three levels of the defense and at running back going into the draft. McCloughan surprised many when he took wideout Josh Doctson in the first round, LB Su’a Cravens – a great athlete but a “tweener” without a position – in the second round and then Kendall Fuller of the famous NFL Fuller family, a cornerback coming off a disappointing season at Virginia Tech due to a bum wheel.

Insiders were confounded. While we never judge a draft in less than two or even three seasons, Washington’s defense is clearly not improved to date with little help from the GM’s efforts.

The bottom line is, the Way We Hear It and hard as it may be to believe, Washington just keeps getting to be a harder and harder place for NFL talent to succeed.
