Mike Mendehall/Daily News Fire crews battle a house fire Monday afternoon at 316 S. Lincoln St. in Colfax. Fire officials on the scene said one man was transported to Skiff Medical Center in Newton for injuries resulting from the fire, and the house is a total loss.

By Mike Mendenhall Newton Daily News COLFAX — One person was reportedly injured Monday when a house caught fire at 316 S. Lincoln St. in Colfax.

Witnesses and neighbors said the victim is 35-year-old Scott Nestvedt, of Colfax. According to Colfax Fire Department Captain JD Smith, no one else was in the home at the time of the blaze, and the victim had already left

the scene for a neighbor’s house by the time fire and rescue crews arrived on scene at approximately 2:20 p.m.

First responders on scene said Nestvedt was transported to Skiff Medical Center in Newton. His condition was not available at presstime Tuesday, but one witness claimed he saw a male with cuts and burns leave the house shortly after the fire began.

According to Colfax city staff, the house was thought to be va-

cant and neighbors told investigators they’ve recently witnessed people sleeping in a vehicle(s) parked in the home’s backyard.

The home’s owner, Michael Nestvedt, was not present at the time of the fire.

Traveling Vietnam wall passing through Newton Wall to be set up in Urbandale

By Jason W. Brooks Newton Daily News

Submitted photo The Wall That Heals is passing through Newton on Wednesday, though the traveling Vietnam veteran memorial won’t be set up until it is delivered to Living History Farms in Urbandale later that morning. The truck carrying the wall is set to arrive at Iowa Speedway at about 9 a.m., with a motorcade along Rusty Wallace Drive and west on Interstate 80 set to begin at about 10:15 a.m.

Jasper County residents won’t have a traveling Vietnam Veterans memorial wall set up in town this week, but they’ll have the chance to see it pass through town.

Ag secretary: Dry weather needed for statewide harvest DES MOINES — Iowa Secretary of Agriculture Bill Northey recently commented on the Iowa Crops and Weather report released by the USDA National Agricultural Statistical Service.

“Unfortunately the torrential rains that have caused devastating flooding in eastern Iowa have also kept many farmers out of the fields due to muddy conditions. We need several days of dry weather to allow for statewide harvest to get underway,” Northey said.

The report summary follows here: Although southeast Iowa had 6.4 days suitable for fieldwork, statewide there were just 3.6 days suitable for the week ending Sept. 25.

Above normal precipitation with localized heavy rains led to reports of fields with standing water. Activities for the week included chopping corn for silage and some corn and soybean harvest. Excessive rains have raised concerns about crop damage and

pasture condition in certain parts of the State.

Topsoil moisture levels rated 1 percent very short, 2 percent short, 67 percent adequate and 30 percent surplus. Subsoil moisture levels rated 1 percent very short, 4 percent short, 73 percent adequate and 22 percent surplus.

Seventy-two percent of the corn crop was mature or beyond, three days ahead of last year, and two days ahead of the five-year av-

erage. Corn harvest slowed due to wet conditions, but there were scattered reports of corn for grain being harvested. Corn condition rated 82 percent good to excellent.

Ninety-three percent of soybeans were turning color or beyond, 3 days ahead of last year’s pace. Sixty-eight percent of soybeans were dropping leaves or beyond, 3 days ahead of average. Soybean harvest has begun where field conditions were dry enough.

Soybean condition rated 81

percent good to excellent.

The third cutting of alfalfa hay advanced only one percentage point, to 96 percent, due to the week’s abundance of rain. Pasture condition rated 65 percent good to excellent. While above normal temperatures were beneficial for livestock conditions, grazing livestock had to move to higher ground as lowland pastures flooded in north central and northeastern Iowa. Outdoor feedlots also became muddy.

Annual AAA Convention in Indianapolis this November

By Jason W. Brooks Newton Daily News Two Jasper County cattlemen will help represent Iowa farmers at the national level.

Brice Conover, of Baxter, was recently chosen as one of Iowa’s 14 delegates to the 133rd Annual American Angus Association Convention of Delegates. The convention is set for Nov. 5-7 in Indianapolis.

Lawrence Moffitt, of Colfax, was selected as one of Iowa’s 14 alternates.

Conover said he’s happy to help represent Angus breeders in Iowa at the convention.

“Hogs are the main thing I do,” Conover said, referring to his primary business, Conover Show Pigs, which breeds and raises Berkshire hogs. “But I have small head of Angus cattle, too. I always try to be a part of boards and committees when I can and give input on behalf of breeders in our area.”

The American Angus Association, headquartered in Saint Joseph, Mo., has 328 Angus breeders sending delegates to Indianapolis, representing 44 states and the District of Columbia.

The annual meeting will take place in conjunction with the 2016 Angus Convention in Indianapolis. The delegates will participate in the business meeting and elect new officers and five directors to a national American Angus Association board.

The event is open to anyone in the cattle business, though it isn’t a cheap event. The early-registration discounted price was $75.

The convention will feature keynote speakers, educational sessions, thought leaders from every industry sector, a sympo-

sium on animal health, entertainment, evening galas prize giveaways and an expansive trade show.

The American Angus Association is the nation’s largest beef breed organization, serving nearly 25,000 members across the U.S., Canada and several other countries.

Conover said the first weekend of November isn’t typically a busy time of year with Angus cattle. It’s the Berkshire hogs that tend to be his focus in the late fall.

“We usually have all the calves weaned by then and a bull sale isn’t until April,” Conover said.

“But with Berkshires, I sell a lot in Oklahoma and Texas in the fall — especially the week before Thanksgiving.”

Conover, who has served on other more local boards over the past 10 years and has won several awards, said being of service at the trade-organization level is something more young farmers should consider.

“It’s important to keep the energy going in a business we believe in,” Conover said. “We have to all keep educating people about what we do.”

WASHINGTON, D.C. — Regulatory barriers facing agriculture are a major driver of agriculture industry consolidation, National Corn Growers Association Chief Executive Officer Chris Novak testified Tuesday at a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing on consolidation and competition in the U.S. seed and agrochemical industry. Novak is testifying on behalf of both the National Corn Growers Association and the American Soybean Association.

“Domestic regulatory hurdles for crop protection chemicals and delays in international approvals for new seed traits represent significant barriers to market entry. These barriers slow down innovation and drive up the cost of seed and chemicals. The process of developing and testing new products, and then securing regulatory approval to bring them to market, requires a substantial amount of time and money. As a result, fewer and fewer companies have the resources to be players in the market. This trend toward consolidation will continue unless and until Congress addresses these regulatory hurdles,” Novak testified.

Together, NCGA and ASA represent more than 500,000 corn and soybean farmers nationwide, and they have a direct interest in ensuring a competitive marketplace for crop production inputs. Earlier this year, NCGA and ASA joined forces to conduct an analysis of a recently announced merger and ensure their members’ best interests were represented in conversations with the Department of Justice.

In written testimony submitted to the Senate Judiciary Committee for the hearing, NCGA and ASA argue that a competitive marketplace is measured by more than the number of competitors, but also their size and relative ability to compete.

By Jamee A. Pierson Newton Daily News

NCSD Continued from Page 1A After a brief swearing-in ceremony, Padget and Friedman moved to their places at the center of the table, where board leaders sit.

“I didn’t know I was taking over tonight,” said Padget, smiling.

The board also chose FRK Design as its architect and engineering firm to lead the design of the rebuild of Berg.

FRK has been heavily involved in creating preliminary designs for the Berg Complex and other projects.

The district hopes to have students in the new Berg Middle School building in the fall of 2019.

Monday’s meeting was preceded by a work session regarding the Dennison Culture Survey.

A board work session is set for 6 p.m. Oct. 4 at the EJH Beard Administration Center. The next regular board meeting is Oct. 10.

The field has been narrowed in the search for a consulting firm to replace Newton’s city administrator. City council met for a special meeting Monday to discuss the candidates and make their recommendations.

Three firms were selected by the council after each council member voiced their top two candidates. Councilman Jeremy Biondi was not present for the meeting.

Of those who presented materials, the council selected GovHR of Northbrook, Ill., Colin Baenziger and Associates Executive Recruiting based in Daytona Beach Shores, Fla. and Slavin Management Consultants of Atlanta, GA. Mayor Mike Hansen opened the discussion by suggesting

background checks and on-site visits,” Councilman Steve Mullan said.

“I also like the follow ups from 90 to 455 days, so it’s not just a day 90 thing, they are on board for quite a ride. I also liked that, statistically speaking, three out of 900 have only left after two years on the job and 95 percent that they place stay more than five years, that says something.”

Councilman Craig Trotter said he liked Colin Baenziger because of its ability to bring six to 10 finalists for the council to view.

“They have a client base of 13,000,” Trotter said. “They also provide one-on-one meetings with each council members.”

Councilwoman Lin Chapé said she also likes their process.

Keeping me on my toes Jamee A. Pierson

ince I was young, I have been writing. I started by writing and illustrating my own books, moved on to publishing a “kids” newspaper when I was 10 and joined journalism once I got to high school.

I have always enjoyed writing, whether news stories or fictional creative work — it is a way to express my thoughts, dreams or whatever subject I am working on.

My oldest daughter is in kindergarten this year and as a part of her school day, they are learning to write and spell.

She seems really into it and has even started to bring her work home.

She has always liked to color and would often ask us to spell out words

she wanted to put down to describe her art. For quite some time, she has been able to spell her name along with her sister’s name and mom and dad, among others.

Over the past couple of weeks, her new interest is in writing books. She will request I bind some paper together so she can begin her books, complete will colored pictures.

At first, she would dictate her book to me as I did my best to write down the main points of what she was talking about. Her first book was a Halloween story with scary ghosts, bats, wolves and spiders that ended up being a dream. Pretty good for a 5 year old, I think.

She has since moved on to writing her own books. At times, it can be quite a challenge for her dad and I to read, but she does still provide illustrations to help us along.

The first book she did on her own was about kindness. It talked about love, friends and had a lot of hearts in it.

Her second story moved on to the riveting subject of rocks. I really have no idea why she decided to write a book about rocks, but five full pages were covered with words that in some way or another related to rocks.

We learned rocks can be big or small, heavy, can be colorful or just gray and are even mountains. She did the whole thing by herself and was super proud to hand it over to be enjoyed.

The third and most recent book she completed was more of a compilation of ideas. It had a picture of our family, talked about coloring and other stuff a

5 year old likes.

When writing her books, she works really hard to sound out the words to put them on the paper. She doesn’t know yet the finer points of word spacing or that you should move to the next line before starting a new word.

An exciting new addition to the books have been punctuation, which must have been a subject in school last week. We learned all about periods, question marks and exclamation points, complete with demonstrations on how sentences can sounds different depending on what punctuation you use.

It is really exciting to see her learn so much, so quickly and that she loves doing it. I am also a little proud that she is following in my footsteps as a writer and can’t wait to see what she will do next.

Living and Dion Marc Dion

They just steal your money When a town near the city where I work as a reporter began considering a vote to authorize civic improvements, I was pretty sure how the public debate would be conducted, though I wouldn’t have been so sure two decades ago.

The improvement involved a modest increase in taxes, very modest. The increase would end in 20 years, when the bond was paid.

You could make a good argument for either side, based on everything from economic development, to increased traffic, increased revenue and the dislike of new tax increases. Facts were readily available.

In general, the pro-improvement side tried to paint the new project as something town residents would enjoy as well as something that would draw in visitors who would spend money in the town.

The anti-improvement side relied on the idea that the increase would be another example of “the government stealing our money to support a bloated bureaucracy and yield to the demands of union thugs.” I believe the union thugs were town police officers who would be working paid details at the construction site.

Right now, in America, there is a large and growing percentage of the population that believes that ANY money the governments obtains is “stolen and wasted.” Everything is government waste. Everything is corrupt. “Lining their pockets” is a phrase that crops up often.

It’s a good viewpoint to have if you don’t know much, but you want to sound smart anyway.

“That’s what they WANT you to think,” you coo when presented with a news story. “It’ll all be covered up,” you say when presented with any malfeasance.

Unfortunately, if you don’t believe anything, you can’t do anything. Endless disbelief, like irony, is the high school student’s way of seeming to know what’s going on in the world.

I’ve been a reporter for 33 years, and I’ve seen plenty of waste and corruption, but I’ve seen plenty of things in government that are neither wasteful nor corrupt.

It’s not so much that you need to believe everything is a lie as it is that you have to be able to separate the lies from the truth. Believing that everything is a lie isn’t one of the ways to make that separation.

We live in the land of always and never. Guns are always good. Guns are always bad. Police are murderers. Police are always innocent. All blacks are criminals. All blacks are innocent. My party does no wrong. Your party does no right. I’m a patriot.

You’re a traitor.

I don’t know how we got to be this kind of country, but it is perilously close to being a country that cannot be governed.

They say we’re winding up to an election in America, but we’re not. What we’re doing is holding a wake for rational thought, a funeral for compromise and a burial for civility. They will not rise again.

The climate change debate is over Earlier this month, Hurricane Hermine caused storm surges that flooded the Florida coast, killed one person, and knocked out power for hundreds of thousands of homes and businesses.

This is the first hurricane to make landfall in Florida since 2005’s Category 3 Hurricane Wilma, but the Atlantic basin is no stranger tomajor storms. In fact, the Atlantic Ocean sees seven named storms per year now, up from an average of five just a few years ago. And storm intensity is increasing in the Pacific Ocean as well.

For decades, companies profiting from the fossil fuel economy have funded scientists, think tanks, and politicians that oppose the general consensus of scientists worldwide that humans are causing climate change.

Mountains of studies and models show that climate change is real, primarily caused by humans, and is already having major impacts on human civilization. But climate deniers have persuaded many to doubt climate change, slowing the critical transition to renewable energy and clean transportation technologies.

But now, the climate deniers have a real problem. The earth itself is providing overwhelming evidence that climate change is happening much sooner than predicted and already impacting our lives.

And it’s not just hurricanes.

Another View Todd Larsen In July, NASA provided data demonstrating that each of the first six months of 2016 were the hottest on record. July and August went on to break records for summer temperatures. These record temperatures couldn’t be explained away by El Nino weather patterns, but they can be by the increasing greenhouse gas effect.

So, too, can the massive rains that caused extensive flooding in Louisiana, killing 13 people and damaging or destroying over 60,000 homes.

All along the East Coast of the United States, cities are experiencing “sunny day flooding” where water inundates cities in the absence of storms. Rising seas, resulting from climate change, are already creating conditions where cities receive flood waters of one to two feet on a regular basis, causing significant damage to homes, businesses, and infrastructure.

Rising seas are caused by rapidly melting ice. The Greenland ice sheet, one of the largest ice formations on earth, is losing ice at a rate of 270 gigatons of ice per year — the equivalent of 110 million Olympic-sized swimming pools per year.

Increasing storms and storm intensity and rising sea levels have long been predicted by climate models and now appear to be coming true.

What does all this building evidence mean for climate deniers?

Clearly, it’s time to stop pretending climate change isn’t real, and recognize that it’s already having major impacts in the world. And the many corporations that tell the public they’re addressing climate change, while simultaneously funding climate-denying politicians, need to end their duplicitous practices.

Climate impacts are already harming the most vulnerable people in the United States.

People of color, indigenous people, and the poor, who are least equipped to adapt to climate impacts are the most vocal advocates for stopping polluters.

We need to stop questioning the validity of climate science and instead rapidly scale up renewable energy, clean transportation, and sustainable agriculture and forestry, all while immediately investing in adaptation nationwide.

The debate is over — it’s time for climate deniers to concede defeat, and start becoming part of the solution.

Boyfriend’s belittling sister makes woman feel small

DEAR ABBY: I’ve been with my boyfriend, “Jake,” for two years.

We are both 32. Since the beginning, his sister, “Michelle” (who is 26), has never liked me. Jake admits there’s no reason for it. He thinks she’s just looking out for him because he’s had bad relationships in the past.

Michelle makes me very uncomfortable during family events by making rude comments, and she makes a point of excluding me from any event she is hosting. She has told people that I “shoved her” and accuses me of refusing to let her talk to her brother. Neither is true.

I have asked Jake to ask his sister to apologize and make amends, but he insists she’ll do it when “hell freezes over.” He thinks I should try to make amends even though I have never done anything wrong.

I’m at a loss. I don’t think I should apologize for something I’ve never done. Abby, she has belittled me in any encounter we’ve had. The rest of the family shrugs and says, “That’s just the way she is.” Michelle has never liked any of Jake’s girlfriends, so this seems to be a pattern for her. I’m afraid it will eventually lead to the end of Jake’s and my relationship.

I love him very much, and I wish he could see my side on this. Could you please give me some advice, Abby? — NOT MY FAULT IN ALBERTA, CANADA DEAR NOT MY FAULT: Michelle’s fixation on her brother isn’t normal or healthy. That Jake has been willing to tolerate it and not warn her to knock it off means that as long as you are with him, you will be subjected to her mistreatment.

You may love Jake, but as long as he is under the thumb of his jealous

and possessive sister, you will continue to be abused and maligned.

My advice is to cut your losses.

DEAR ABBY: I am an African-American woman who was in a relationship with a Hispanic man.

I am now a single parent of a beautiful 6-month-old son who is my pride and joy.

My biracial son, who looks exactly like me, is very fair-skinned.

My problem is, any time I leave the house with him, strangers feel the need to ask me rude questions. I have been asked about my child’s father’s ethnicity, and asked if I was baby-sitting someone else’s child. I’m left flabbergasted and speechless. What should I say the next time a stranger asks about my son’s race, which is none of their business? — COLORBLIND IN TEXAS DEAR COLORBLIND: It’s normal for people to be curious. If I were you, I wouldn’t tell them it’s none of their business because if you do, you will come across as angry and defensive. When your son is older, it may make him wonder if there is something wrong with his appearance. A better way to handle it would be to matter-of-factly just tell the truth and move on.

support child who’s not his

DES MOINES — A Davenport man says he’s reached a divorce settlement that will end his state-required obligation to provide financial support for another man’s child. The Iowa Department of Human Services notified Joe Vandusen in March that he’d have to pay child support for his estranged wife’s 1-year-old child born of her relationship with another man. Vandusen says he was told he was financially responsible because he was still legally married to the woman.

President Steven Leath also said he and his wife will make a donation to the university’s scholarship fund in the amount of costs associated with an accident in the Cirrus SR22 single-engine plane in July 2015.

Holstein theater restored, ready to reopen

CEDAR RAPIDS — Residents of Cedar Rapids, Iowa’s second-largest city, hope a temporary floodwall that is protecting thousands of homes and downtown buildings from the rain-swollen Cedar River will hold as the waterway crests. The river is expected to reach its peak Tuesday morning at 23 feet before slowly falling through the week. Residents fear a devastating flood like the one that hit the eastern Iowa city of 130,000 in 2008. City crews and residents have been stacking sandbags and building larger barriers for days.

HOLSTEIN — A theater in Holstein that dates back to 1927 has been restored and is getting ready to reopen.

A $100,000 fundraising goal was surpassed, allowing the Save the State Theater group to purchase the necessary materials and features to restore the structure.

Committee members were thankful that there was little water damage at the site, which closed in 2013.

Newton man takes police on chase from Ankeny to Des Moines Jason W. Brooks Newton Daily News A Newton man was arrested Sunday morning on several charges after police say he took them on a pursuit from Ankeny to Des Moines in a stolen vehicle before he crashed it.

According to Lt. Brian Kroska of the Ankeny Police Department, an officer on patrol noticed a fence was down at an outdoor storage facility, with tire tracks leading across it and into the street. When an Ankeny officer attempted to pull the van over at about 8:15 a.m. the driver, later identified as Christian Schultz-Carrillo, 22, of Newton,

accelerated and headed south to Des Moines.

The 15-minute chase, which reached speeds as high as 80 mph, ended when Schultz-Carillo lost control and Shultz-Carrillo crashed in the front yard of a Des Moines home near the corner of 41st Street and University Avenue. No one was injured in the crash, but the van was rendered undriveable.

Among other violations, Schultz-Carillo was determined by police to be operating the van

— a 1998 Dodge Ram 2500 — under the influence.

He is being held in Polk County Jail on a $30,000 bond on charges of OWI, second-degree theft, two counts of third-degree burglary, first-degree criminal mischief, eluding and interference with official acts.

The second burglary charge is due to Schultz-Carillo attempting to break into another vehicle at the storage facility before breaking into the van, Kroska said.

No court date for Schultz-Carrillo had been set as of presstime.

Newton man charged after shooting himself in foot Newton Daily News A Newton Man has been charged with being a felon in possession of a firearm after he told police he shot himself in the foot with a handgun.

Newton Police were called to Skiff Medical Center on the evening of July 5 regarding a self-inflicted gunshot wound. Ian D. McCandless, 23, of Newton, told police he was handling a .380 hand-

gun and accidentally shot himself in the foot. His injuries were nonlife threatening.

McCandless was arrested Wednesday on a warrant for this charge. He was released from Jasper County Jail after posting a $5,000 bond.

Newton Police Chief Rob Burdess said because McCandless was under medical treatment for some time, he was not arrested immediately. A warrant was issued for

him and he was picked up on that charge recently. The case involved an accidental discharge, and there was no immediate public safety risk, so McCandless was not charged with discharging a weapon, given that it was accidental and there was no intent to fire the weapon.

McCandless is charged with possession of a firearm by a felon, which is a Class D felony. He had a felony conviction from June 2014.

Trial set for man accused of kidnapping

By Abigail Pelzer Newton Daily News A Grinnell man charged earlier this month with kidnapping and holding a woman against her will in a Ne wton motel room is scheduled for Darrow a jury trial Oct. 19.

Michael A. Darrow, 38, was charged Sept. 5 after police were called at about 1:30 a.m. to the Econo Lodge Inn & Suites, 1405 W. 19th St. S. The victim said Darrow held her against her will in the motel room and twice strangled her and physically restricted her from leaving when she at-

tempted to escape. According to a police report, Darrow told the victim, “scream one more time, and I’ll kill you.”

Darrow also took the victim’s cell phone and the motel room phone, according to police.

The victim was eventually able to leave the motel room and ran across Highway 14 to Casey’s to report the assault and kidnapping. Darrow fled the scene but was later taken into custody.

He faces charges for third-degree kidnapping, first-degree harassment, assault causing bodily injury and controlled substance violation.

Darrow is being held on a $125,000 bond at the Jasper County Jail.

Iowa city braces for highest floodwaters since 2008 CEDAR RAPIDS (AP) — Residents of Cedar Rapids are watching anxiously as the quickly rising Cedar River threatens to inundate their city with devastating floodwaters for the second time in just over eight years.

After days of sandbagging and erecting an extensive system of flood barriers, residents

and officials in Iowa’s second-largest city were simply waiting to see how high the Cedar River would rise and what impact the flood would have.

Entire neighborhoods and the downtown area were largely abandoned as residents in low-lying areas heeded the city’s call to evacuate. Schools

were canceled and many businesses were closed.

The river was expected to crest Tuesday at 23 feet, the second-largest flood in the city’s history, behind only that of June 2008. The river level has risen to nearly 22 feet by dawn Tuesday, or 6 feet above major flood stage.

Cheers and jeers: Americans tune into Trump-Clinton debate LAS VEGAS (AP) — From senior centers to college campuses and bars featuring campaign-themed cocktails, Americans laughed, cheered and jeered through the first debate between Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump.

Viewers tuned in Monday on their TVs, cellphones and radios to watch and listen to the showdown between the two major presidential candidates.

Here are some of the scenes across the U.S. as people watched the event: DES MOINES: Drake University Democrats and Drake College Republicans used their joint watch party to launch a live poll for audience members to answer questions about the debate.

At the start, organizers asked students to go to a special website to answer questions that refreshed about every 10 minutes.

An average of between 40 and 70 students responded to each question, according to Zachary Blevins, a senior and treasurer for Drake Democrats.

The questions for the unscientific poll ranged from whether students planned to vote to which candidate had the most to lose from the debate.

Students received real-time results while they watched.

Blevins said the groups didn’t want to have too much of a partisan leaning.

LAS VEGAS: A party at the Atria Sunlake retirement home in Las Vegas started with about 15 people, but some residents dozed off during the event and the crowd thinned to about half of that with 30 minutes left.

“I don’t know if Hillary will be able to shut the big mouth down,” said Joan Moelter, 81, as she polished off a dinner of chicken and crabcakes with her new 86-year-old boyfriend.

AP Photo Patrons watch the presidential debate between Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton and Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump at Jefferson Social, Monday, in downtown Cincinnati.

A Minnesota native, Moelter owned two Dairy Queen restaurants and has long considered herself a Republican. She’s rooting for Clinton this time around.

Shirley Ball, 89, squeezed onto a loveseat with her friend and was wrapped up in the debate to the bitter end.

Ball describes herself as a Democrat but said she’ll be voting for Libertarian Gary Johnson. She can’t bring herself to back Clinton or Trump.

“I don’t want to waste my vote on either one of them,” the former medical assistant said.

RALEIGH, North Carolina: At the all-women’s Meredith College more than 75 students, faculty and guests listened carefully and quietly, save for a few laughs or short bursts of applause.

That’s partially because the watch party was part of a campus initiative focusing on civil dialogue.

But it’s also because many of them had the night’s popular accessory: an “ELECTO” card, based on the popular bingo game. Each square was a likely phrase or word Clinton, Trump or moderator Lester Holt might say, like “Let’s move on,” ‘’Gender Gap,” and “Obamacare.”

Student Breanna Harmon, 18, joked that there were some unexpected phrases left out on her card, like “Trumped up” and anything to do with China. Harmon, an independent voter who likes Trump’s business background, said she was taken aback

by Clinton’s aggressive style early.

“I was surprised to see her throw the first shade at Donald Trump,” Harmon said. “I thought it would be Trump.”

CLEVELAND: Less than a mile from where Trump accepted the Republican nomination two months ago, hundreds of people attended a party called “Desserts & Debate.”

The non-partisan event was free and part of the Greater Cleveland Caucus, a year-long series of events led by the nonprofit Cleveland Foundation. More than 400 people registered and many of them filled chairs in the historic Calfee Building.

Tom Jordan, a 36-year-old urban planner, said he liked “that it’s not just a one-sided crowd.”

Still, Jordan said he’ll likely vote for Clinton.

“I’m one of those people who bought the media narrative going back to the ‘90s that Hillary’s kind of unlikable. But, I’m impressed with her so far. I think she just comes across as presidential and professional.”

Debate Takeaways: Clinton gets under Trump’s skin in debate HEMPSTEAD, N.Y. (AP) — Donald Trump repeatedly clashed with Hillary Clinton during Monday’s first presidential debate, interrupting her and appearing agitated at times as they tangled over the economy, her use of a private mail server and his unwillingness to release his income tax returns.

Clinton maintained an even demeanor, smiling indulgently when Trump turned aggressive.

Clinton and Trump engaged in a vigorous backand-forth on the debate stage at Hofstra University as polls showed them locked in a tight race. Given the wide interest in Trump, the business mogul

and former reality TV star, and Clinton, the first woman to win the nomination of a major party, the debate was expected to draw a massive viewing audience.

Here are the top takeaways from Monday’s debate:

that by the end of this evening I’ll be blamed for everything that ever happened.”

Trump interjected, “Why not?” Later on, Trump said he had a “winning temperament,” prompting Clinton to respond: “Whew. OK.”

Trump’s Temperament If Clinton aimed to get under Trump’s skin in the first 30 minutes of the debate, the Democratic nominee appeared to succeed. Clinton often put Trump on the defensive, saying he had “rooted for” the collapse of the housing industry and had considered climate change to be a hoax. In another exchange, Clinton said, “I have a feeling

Economy Trump scored points with his core supporters by lamenting the number of jobs that have moved overseas. He opened with an extensive argument that jobs are “fleeing the country” and going to Mexico while the U.S. economy is being undermined by China. He pointed to Ford Motor Co.’s plans to build compact cars in Mexico and

railed against Carrier’s decision to move hundreds of air-conditioner manufacturing jobs from Indianapolis to Mexico. “So many hundreds and hundreds of companies are doing this,” Trump said.

His economic case could resonate in states like Ohio and Michigan that have grappled with the loss of manufacturing jobs. “We have to stop our jobs from being stolen from us. We have to stop our companies from leaving the United States,” he said. Clinton pointed out that her father was a small businessman, adding, “The more we can do for the middle class, the more we can invest in you, your education, your skills, your

future, the better we will be off.”

Clinton’s Zingers Often delivered with a smile, Clinton came prepared with pithy lines that undercut Trump’s case on the economy.

In an early exchange, Clinton said Trump would push for “trickle-down” tax cuts that would only benefit the wealthy, calling it, “trumpedup trickle-down.” When Trump got in a dig at Clinton’s absence from the campaign trail, she said there was nothing wrong with spending time preparing for the debate.

“You know what else I did?” she asked. “I prepared to be president.”

Jocelyn Sheets/Daily News Newton’s Joshua Adkison (49) jars the football loose from Fort Dodge quarterback Joe Artis’ hand forcing a fumble in the first quarter of Monday’s junior varsity game at H.A. Lynn Stadium. Visiting Fort Dodge beat Newton, 34-26.

Opportunities to score and to win games have been there for Newton High’s junior varsity football team in all four of its games this season.

The Cardinals fell behind visiting Fort Dodge’s Dodgers in the third quarter Monday at H.A. Lynn. They cut the deficit to two points, 28-26, and were driving with less than a minute on the game clock.

Fort Dodge intercepted a pass and returned it 87 yards for a touchdown to seal its 34-26 win over the Cardinals.

Cardinals claim second at Roland-Story tourney

By Jocelyn Sheets Newton Daily News STORY CITY — Playing the host team in a tournament for the first match of the night is tough, but Newton High’s Cardinals were up to the challenge Monday.

Going into the Roland-Story Invitational on a five-match losing skid, the Cardinals battled to defeat Roland-Story, 21-18, 23-21. It set the tone for the night as Newton pushed its way into the championship match with a three-set win — 21-15, 20-22, 15-6 — over Greene County.

Newton challenged Class 2A 13thranked BCLUW in the title match, losing 21-9, 22-20.

“The girls had a good night. Getting the win over Roland-Story was a great way to start the tournament,” Newton head coach Ashley Carter said. “We took second in the tournament with Megan Pressgrove and Morgan Allen named to the all-tournament team.”

Pressgrove and Allen are seniors.

Pressgrove finished with 32 kills in the three matches of the tournament,

10 digs, one solo block and five block assists. She had nine set assists and two ace serves. Allen was credited with three solo blocks and five block assists, two kills, two digs and one ace serve.

Against Roland-Story, Pressgrove downed 15 kills to lead the net attack with Taylor Shipley delivering six kills. They each had a solo block.

Alexis Hoffman had two kills and Allen had one kill.

Ryanne Rausch made eight digs while Shipley and Audrey Lucas each had six digs. Carter Lee had four digs, and Allen had two digs. Lucas served one ace.

“The girls were excited, and it was obvious they were having a good time playing,” Carter said. “In our second match, we did an awesome job of closing the block, and shutting down some of the hitters from Greene County.”

Allen had five block assists and one solo block at the net in the Greene County match. Pressgrove Jocelyn Sheets/Daily News put up five block assists, and Shipley Newton High’s Audrey Lucas passes the ball CARDINALS | 3B

team we’ve seen this year,” Newton assistant coach Tom Weeks said. “We’re 0-4 by a total 18 points.”

Newton scored first at home on a 6-yard touchdown pass from Ryan Barr to Jacob Murphy with 1:53 left in the first quarter. A penalty on the extra-point try against the Cardinals resulted in the kick being blocked.

Fort Dodge used the first of three long TD passes on the night to score before the end of the first quarter. A twopoint conversion play put the Dodgers up 8-6 with 27 seconds on the clock.

Down 16-6, the Cardinals claimed the lead just before halftime. Logan FOOTBALL | 3B

Harvick’s win advances him to 2nd round of the Chase LOUDON, N.H. (AP) — Kevin Harvick has thrived as NASCAR’s version of a Game 7 master, steeling his nerves and flourishing in those winor-else races that kept a championship push alive.

His Chase off to a rocky start, Harvick injected the Chase again with a rousing finish that eliminated a mustwin race for him and parked him in the next playoff round.

Harvick won Sunday at New Hampshire Motor Speedway to earn a spot in the second round of the NASCAR Sprint Cup playoffs, pulling away off a restart a year after a late loss at the track.

“It’s kind of like an addiction,” Harvick said. “You just love the rush of being able to be behind and be able to perform and make that happen.”

CMB girls finish third in Nevada Cross Country Invitational

By Troy Hyde Newton Daily News COLO — For the first time this season, the Class 2A No. 6 Collins-Maxwell/Baxter girls cross country team was beaten. The Raiders head-to-head with perhaps their toughest competition of the season and placed third in a 10-team field.

The Raiders scored 69 points after placing six of their seven varsity runners in the top 30. CMB trailed 3A No. 8 Ballard by 27 points and was 11 points back of Heart of Iowa Conference rival North Polk, which is a “team to watch” in 3A. “I thought our times were great tonight,” CMB coach Jerry Meinerts said. “It was great to be in a race with qual-

ity teams and quality individuals. It made us faster. Ballard and North Polk are very good 3A teams.”

Sophomore Ian Thomson and freshman Logan Berg finished fourth and sixth, respectively, in the boys varsity race, but the Raiders wound up seventh in the 10-team field.

“Ian and Logan ran incredible races tonight,” Meinerts

said. “They were running against some really good individuals and teams and to finish fourth and sixth in the 17:40s is a great night. These two guys really have a good competition going, and it’s only making them better.”

Leading the CMB girls was sophomore Brenna Thomson in seventh and junior Heather Jessen in eighth.

Brenna Thomson crossed the line in 21 minutes, 4 seconds, while Jessen hit the line six seconds later.

Junior Ashlee Johnson placed 14th overall in 21:46, while sophomore Lauren Ratliff finished 17th in 21:56 and sophomore Shasta Moody was 23rd in 22:23.

coach, drops out of Top 25 poll The Associated Press

The firings have begun. That’s what happens when a preseason top-10 team finds itself out of the AP Top 25 at the end of September.

LSU took the first opportunity to do what it wanted to do — and probably should have done — last season and fired coach Les Miles on Sunday. Miles is arguably the most successful coach in school history but the Tigers are 2-2 after starting No. 5 in the country and it was time to try something different.

At Notre Dame, Brian Kelly axed defensive coordinator Brian VanGorder the day after a 38-35 loss to Duke left the Irish 1-3 and having allowed more points through four games than any team in program history.

The Irish and Tigers have been vanquished

by AP poll voters, but otherwise the top of the rankings were mostly unchanged.

Chase

Continued from Page 1B

Continued from Page 1B

Harvick finished 20th in the Chase for the Sprint Cup championship opener which stuck him 15th in the standings. With another weak finish at New Hampshire, Harvick would have faced yet another race at Dover he may have had to win to advance.

His lap times in the No. 4 Chevrolet only got faster deeper into the race and he was soon nipping at Martin Truex Jr. and Matt Kenseth at the front of the field. Kenseth dominated the second half of the race and seemed poised to win the New Hampshire race for the third straight time.

Harvick, the 2014 Sprint Cup champion, had enough juice in the Chevy to zip past Kenseth with five laps left and join Truex as the drivers locked in the next round. Truex won the Chase opener at Chicagoland and he led a race-high 141 laps at New Hampshire.

Harvick ran out of fuel late last year at New Hampshire to lose and faced a win-or-elimination race the next week at Dover.

Harvick, who won for the third time this season, rallied for one of the biggest wins of his career to survive another round.

He won in a similar situation in 2014 at Phoenix when he needed a victory to advance to the championship race. Harvick won the finale and the championship at Homestead.

“The last two years we’ve kind of just worn ourselves out and really stressed out over trying to perform at this level,” he said.

At Dover, it’s up to 14 other drivers to worry about a win.

Chase drivers took the top eight spots. The 16-driver Chase for the Sprint Cup championship field will be cut to 12 after Dover.

Kenseth led 105 of 300 laps and would have clinched with the win, just as he did last season at New Hampshire when he was in perfect position to take advantage of Harvick’s fuel foul up.

Kenseth appeared to slow down just a bit off the last restart with five laps left, allowing Harvick to race side-by-side before he took off for his 11th win in 100 career starts at Stewart-Haas Racing.

“It was just a smooth restart. I just didn’t want to spin the tires,” Harvick said. “I don’t know what happened to him, or if I just timed it right.”

had three block assists.

Lucy Lilienthal put up two block assists and Hoffman had one block assist.

Pressgrove delivered 12 kills while Shipley had four kills. Hoffman rang up two kills while Allen and Rausch each had one kill. Shipley was credited with 12 set assists and Pressgrove had five set assists. Pressgrove served up two aces while Allen and Shipley each had one service ace.

Leading the team in digs against Greene County were Rausch with eight and Pressgrove with six. Shipley put up four digs followed by Lucas and Carter with three digs apiece, and Savannah Reicks with one dig.

“We lost a little steam and dropped the first set to BCLUW,” Carter said. “We fought back in the second set, but it was just too little too late. We are looking forward to our match at

NASCAR Photo Kevin Harvick, driver of the No. 4 ditech Chevrolet, and his son, Keelan, pose with the winners’ decal in Victory Lane after winning Sunday’s NASCAR Sprint Cup Series Bad Boy Off Road 300 at New Hampshire Motor Speedway in Loudon, NH.

Kenseth won the May race at Dover and appears in solid shape to reach the second round.

“I let Kevin lay back on me, which we’re supposed to be sideby-side. I should have known better,” Kenseth said. “I should have just went really late in the zone and wait until he had to get up to my nose because he anticipated it just right and laid back.

Plus, I spun the tires and I got beat through one and two and then it was over.”

Joe Gibbs Racing teammates Kenseth and Kyle Busch were second and third. They were followed by Chase drivers Brad Keselowski, Kurt Busch, Carl Edwards, Truex and Jimmie Johnson.

Other Chase results: Kyle Larson was 10th, Joey Logano 11th, Chase Elliott 13th, Denny Hamlin 15th, Austin Dillon 16th, Jamie McMurray 19th, Tony Stewart 23rd, and Chris Buescher 30th.

McMurray, Dillon, Stewart and Buescher are the bottom four drivers in the standings.

Good news for the NASCAR PR machine — no Chase driver failed post-race inspection.

NASCAR issued a stern warning to the Sprint Cup garage before the race not to “circumvent what happens with postrace in-

spection.”

The sanctioning body decided not to penalize race winner Truex Jr. and Johnson for failing inspection after the opening Chase for the Sprint Cup championship race at Chicagoland Speedway. Both cars failed the laser inspection with infractions that should have drawn 10-point penalties.

NASCAR spent the week talking lasers — after spending a chunk of the season on lug nuts — instead of celebrating the playoffs.

“We ask all of you not to put it in our hands because we will react if we have to,” NASCAR executive vice president Steve O’Donnell said. “I think everybody knows what that means.

We want to concentrate on the race.”

All remaining Chase cars will go through laser inspection after only nine were picked after the Chase opener.

Danica Patrick finished 18th and actually led nine laps. Her 30 laps led this season are three more than her combined total the last three seasons.

The first Chase elimination race takes place at Dover International Speedway. Harvick is the defending race winner.

Football Continued from Page 1B Zibert’s 12-yard touchdown run at the 4:31 mark of the second quarter moved Newton to within four points, 16-12. Barr scored from 2 yards out with 1 second left to put Newton up 18-16 at halftime.

Fort Dodge had two long touchdown passes in the third quarter to regain the lead, 28-18. In the fourth quarter, Barr connected with Zibert on a 49yard scoring pass play and tossed the 2-point conversion pass to Zibert to make it 28-26 with 4:54 left.

Newton had the football with less than two minutes remaining in the game. The Cardinals drove 50 yards to the Dodger 31-yard line then Fort Dodge had the interception-for-TD. The Cardinals had 339 total yards on of-
