The purpose of National Disability Employment Awareness Month is to educate about disability employment issues and celebrate the many and varied contributions of America’s workers with disabilities.

The history of National Disability Employment Awareness Month traces back to 1945, when Congress enacted a law declaring the first week in October each year “National Employ the Physically Handicapped Week.”

In 1962, the word “physically” was removed to acknowledge the employment needs and contributions of individuals with all types of disabilities. In 1988, Congress expanded the week to a month

Letter to the Editor

Monday, October 14, 2013

Joe Heller Cartoon

When is it that 7 cents are really 7 cents?

To the editor: The proposed Newton Housing Initiative outlined to the Newton Council by City Administrator Knabel stated that the debt service levy would go up from $1.04 to $1.11/1,000 assessed valuation.

This additional $0.07 would add approximately $6.65 per year on the average home valued at $95,000.

I have no idea how anybody in his position would not check the numbers and come to this conclusion.

First of all a house assessed at $95,000 has a taxable value of $50,176 after you use the state mandated rollback of 52.8166 percent. Then you would take this $0.07 times $50,176/1,000 which would be $3.51.

But then I would question the $0.07, it would be true if it were to be done this year on the $1.04 to make it $1.11. The fact is this will not take effect until next year on the 201415 budget.

With our current debt next year the debt levy will go from $1.04 to $0.96 so the $1.11 will be an increase of $0.15 the very first year it goes into effect.

This is about $7.28 for that $95,000 house.

The real cost of this $3,650,000 bond over the 10 year life for the average $95,000 home will be about $402.90 for an average of $40.29 per year if we use the current home value, rollback and Debt service valuation.

This cost will start at $7.28 the first year and increase until it reaches $55.70 for the last 5 years. This is nowhere near the $6.65 per year stated by our City Administrator.

Our current General Obligation debt service will be a $1,666,802 as of the beginning of the next budget year 2014/2015 and is scheduled to be paid off during 2018/2019.

Debt Levy on Current Debt @ Current Debt Service value 2014-15 = $0.9649 2015-16 = $0.7813 2016-17 = $0.5161 2017-18 = $0.5247 2018-19 = $0.2831 2019-20 = $0.000 If this bond issue is passed the rate will remain at $1.11 through 2023-24 and if we borrow and issue any other bonds during this period the levy rate will increase by whatever is needed to pay them.

Do you really think the city can go for 10 years without issuing a bond for anything?

I’m not sure if I were you I would believe these numbers just because someone says they are correct.

An intelligent person would verify this as they should do with everything.

I just don’t know how the administration would be able to dispute these figures.

I will stand by my figures, but maybe you should ask your City Council member or call city hall, as that is where the $6.65 came from, and ask them if these calculations are correct and if not what is the correct calculation?

Morris Park revisited It happened again. Mary and I were loading up the truck with junk, I mean sculptures, and someone stopped and bought a piece right out of the truck.

There’s just something about seeing a load of whatever, getting ready to move out, that prompts people to buy beBy Curt Swarm fore the goodies Guest Columnist disappear. Mary and I interpreted this odd sale as a good omen.

It was.

We were headed for Morris Park, north of Stockport, where we would set up our art. It was Van Buren County’s Scenic Fall Drive, always a festive event and, this year, because of the beautiful fall weather, exceptional.

The hickory nuts were falling off the trees as Mary and I set up. A lady came along with a sack collecting nature’s bounty. She explained that you separate out the wormy nuts by throwing the whole batch into a tub of water.

The ones that float are the wormy ones because of air pockets — always a good bit of country wisdom to possess.

No sooner had we finished setting up, but a whole string of Model Ts came roaring by in a cloud of dust, internal-combustion explosions, and aooga horns. They parked right behind us which, of course, drew a nice crowd of onlookers.

In front of us, was the stop where passengers were being picked up and left off from horse-drawn wagon rides.

And across the road was a grand demonstration of old-time farm equipment.

They were baling straw, squeezing the juice out of sorghum, and generally having a good time running all this old, belt-driven equipment. I saw a contraption in operation that I have never heard of before.

er. Whole corn stalks, with the ears still attached, are fed in one end. From two other ends came the shredded stalk, and the shucked ears of corn, all golden yellow in the fall sunlight. I asked if I could buy some ears for my squirrels.

“Sure! Help yourself.”

Then Bob Norris and his wife Renae, from Dixon, Illinois, arrived. Bob is the producer of an internet radio station called Lost Lake Radio. I record my Empty Nest columns, and Bob includes them, along with many other local color stories, on the internet station (www.lostlakeradio.com).

Bob was aware that I made yard art out of old rusty farm junk. They arrived to take a look. In short, one sale netted more than I have made at any other venue. Thank you Renae, Bob, and Morris Park!

Saturday night, there was a chili cooking contest. Brian Morris (direct descendant to the Morris Park clan) and his wife, Darla, from Mount Pleasant, were cooking in the contest.

Bob featured his world-famous Chicken Little chili (chicken and white beans), and Noah’s Ark chili (everything in it). If there’s one thing

I like better’n a potluck, it’s a chili cook’n contest — stuff yourself silly!

Bob and his wife were runners-up, along with Cindy Hewitt, daughter of Dorothy Gilbert, organizer of the Morris Park celebration. First place went to two little girls, Hailey Brown and Rachel Pforty, from Stockport.

They had the sweetest chili. Sweet chili from two sweet little girls is a sure-fire winner, every time. What a fitting way to end a Saturday at Morris Park — that and the Halloween Decoration Contest at the Morris Park camp ground.

Even the dogs were wearing costumes!

Sunday morning at Morris Park started for us with a Cowboy Church service, then the celebration of Morris Park’s 75th anniversary. There were speakers, a band, and story telling. I’ll definitely be back next year.

By the way, Mary and I are having an open house next weekend, Oct. 19 and 20, at my house in Mount Pleasant as part of the Southeast Iowa Studio Art Tour. Last year, Iowa Public Television showed up.

Y’all come, hear? (Mary’s making cookies). (Meet Buddy).

Jasper County Historical Museum to host ‘Dark Night’ event

Continued from Page 1A

Kay Foundation is able to assist us as we move forward with our new service model.”

The Crisis Center is currently in the process of expanding to serve 11 counties in South-Central Iowa, including Jasper County.

Last year, it provided services to nearly 1,000 victims of domestic abuse.

“The staff, Board of Directors and the clients of the Crisis Center are grateful for this support from the Mary Kay Foundation,” Brown said.

“We depend on many sources of funding and this will go a long way in meeting the needs of victims in our areas. The expansion of our service area to include 11 counties makes this kind of support even more critical. Our goal is for everyone to have a safe home that is free from abuse and we will continue to work towards that in our local communities.”

For nearly 20 years The Mary Kay Foundation has supported the prevention and elimination of domestic violence, which studies suggest impacts the lives of nearly a quarter of all U.S. women.

The foundation, through its annual shelter grant program, has granted $34 million to domestic violence organizations since 2000.

“The Mary Kay Foundation is proud to support local shelters that are on the front lines of helping the thousands of women and children who seek shelter and support from abuse,” Mary Kay Inc. Vice President of Government Relations Anne Crews said. “The shelter grants are a signature program for The Mary Kay Foundation and represent just one of the ways we are committed to breaking the cycle of domestic violence.”

from 6 to 8 p.m.

The event is intended to be family friendly for all ages. Tickets are avail-

able in advance for $5 at Mattingly’s and the museum. Tickets may also be purchased at the door Saturday.

Wallace also spoke favorably of Newton.

“They were awesome, every year it gets better and better,” Wallace said.

“We are grateful for that. We are grateful to the Convention & Visitors Bureau and Linda Bacon, the mayor and all of those people that kind of helped make all of the pieces come together for us.”

“We are so grateful to all of the community businesses that sponsor or get involved and helped coordinate certain aspects,” she added. “And, of course, we are very, very grateful to the school for working with us.”

With great community support and packed crowds, the Miss Iowa USA and Miss Teen Iowa USA competitions could find a permanent location in Newton.

“My hope is that this will be our home,” Wallace said. “That’s what we

Firm limits on cellphone use should curb girl’s compulsion DEAR ABBY: I am upset with myself for getting my granddaughter the cellphone she begged me for. I wish the phone companies would put restrictions on them. I wondered why she was feeling tired in the mornings until I caught her on the phone at 4 a.m. She can’t get dressed in the morning because she’s texting every two minutes.

When her friend, who she was always very active with, came over, the girl wound up watching a movie with me because my granddaughter would not stop texting in her bedroom. She wasn’t like this until she got this new boyfriend, and he must have no life at all. Should I talk to his parents?

It is consuming her life, morning, noon and night. I have told her she can’t have the phone until her homework is done.

— FRUSTRATED GRANDMA IN NORTH CAROLINA DEAR GRANDMA: You shouldn’t expect the phone company to decide what is acceptable in your home. As the adult in your household, it’s up to you to assert control. If your granddaughter lives with you, by all means talk to the boyfriend’s parents about this.

But equally important, enforce cellphone limits. If you think she can’t be trusted not to use it after lights-out, see that she gives you her phone at bedtime.

In the morning, return it to her once she’s dressed and ready for school. And when she invites friends over, make sure she understands it is HER responsibility — not yours — to entertain them, because what she did was rude.

DEAR ABBY: I have met a darling man I’m compatible with in every way.

We have similar tastes in just about everything from decorating and landscaping to entertainment.

My problem is his past. From what he says, he has never had a monogamous relationship, even during his marriage. After the divorce he pursued anything female.

When we are out at a club or a concert, I constantly encounter women he has been with. He tells me he is happy for the first time in his life and he would never cheat on me.

I have never been the jealous type, and I’m really not now. I just don’t want to be the woman everyone is laughing at be-

cause they know his history. As I said, we are content and happy, but I need to move past this or move on, I guess. — THE CURRENT WOMAN DEAR CURRENT WOMAN: You say this “darling” man has never had a monogamous relationship — before, during or after his marriage. Therefore, the odds aren’t great that he’ll have one with you.

It’s time to ask yourself (not me) if you would be willing to tolerate his fooling around if you were his wife. Some women — the wives of attractive or powerful men — are open-minded about it if their husbands are discreet. The real question is, are you?

DEAR ABBY: I wrote to you three years ago about throwing parties on unique days, such as 7-7-07, 9-9-09, etc., and you printed my letter.

Well, I’m still at it, even though the special numbers have run out. I planned a brunch on 11-11-11. Everyone who attended chipped in $11 apiece. The money that was left over I donated to a hunger program. Twelve of us met for lunch at noon on 12-12-12, and this time each person paid — guess how much — $12.

This year, we’ll be having brunch at 10:00 on 11-12-13, and I’m already planning ahead for next year’s celebration, which will be on 12-13-14 at 1500 hours.

Any suggestions? — CLAIRE (AGAIN) IN BETHLEHEM, PA. DEAR CLAIRE: You appear to be a fun, clever woman with a zest for life. And yes, I do have a suggestion. How about making next year’s celebration a tea with a holiday theme? After all, “’tis the season,” and any leftover money could be donated to a children’s charity.

The Mitchellville pumpkin patch, Pumpkinville, has been a local draw since it first opened to the public in 1999. Joan Allsup, the owner, said that were always having kids out to the farm anyways so it wasn’t a big leap to open publicly.

Newton mom plans to open family entertainment center

By Dave Hon Daily News Staff Writer Boomerangs; we keep you coming back.

Prior to opening and being fully financed, most businesses aren’t as prepared in having their name and slogan ready.

Then again, as long as Dana Simbro has been working on Boomerangs, she’s preparing for anything.

“I’ve been working on it for three years, trying to bring a family entertainment center to Newton and mainly because I’m a stay at home mom and I’m tired of driving to other locations entertain my kids,” Simbro said. “We should really have one of these in Newton.”

Simbro’s plan for the business to offer Newton families a business they don’t currently have. A fun and safe environment where their children are free to be kids. Aside from

serving her customers, Simbro sees this as an opportunity to give back to Newton.

“I really want to help the animal rescue league, the food pantry..all of these things that are constantly asking for money,” Simbro is currently scouting for locations for Boomerangs and said she just talked to a bank about financing.

“This project is obtainable,” Simbro said. “I am working on investors.”

Boomerangs, when it opens, will have an arcade, laser tag, bumper cars and inflatables.

These are just a few of the things Simbro plans to offer on opening day.

“We have grandmother’s who have grandchildren that stay the weekend and there’s all sorts of ages involved there,” She said. “We have parents who have teenagers and 2-year-olds.

We need a place with a wide

range of options.”

Still early in the investment stage, Simbro doesn’t have an opening day set. Three years ago, she said she was driving her children to Ankeny for such entertainment and hopes soon that other parents won’t have to resort to such measures.

“I just thought it was silly,” she said. “There’s no reason we can’t do this in Newton.”

Simbro said her background is varied, she worked for attorneys for years and said her father was an entrepreneur so she’s used to think outside the box and trying something new.

“So, I’m not scared of the legal issues involved,” Simbro said. “This is also a business that a woman would think about more than a man because they’re the ones that usually take their kids out to do things like this.”

Poll: Half of older workers delay retirement plans CHICAGO (AP) — Stung by a recession that sapped investments and home values, but expressing widespread job satisfaction, older Americans appear to have accepted the reality of a retirement that comes later in life and no longer represents a complete exit from the workforce. Some 82 percent of working Americans over 50 say it is at least somewhat likely they will work for pay in retirement, according to a poll released Monday by the Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research.

The survey found 47 percent of working survey respondents now expect to retire later than they previously thought and, on average, plan to call it quits at about 66, or nearly three years later than their estimate when they were 40. Men, racial minorities, parents of minor children, those earning less than $50,000 a year and those without health insurance were more likely to put off their plans.

“Many people had experienced a big downward movement in their 401(k) plans, so they’re trying to make up for that period of time when they lost money,” said Olivia Mitchell, a retirement expert who teaches at the University of Pennsylvania.

About three-quarters of working respondents said they have given their retirement years some or a great deal of thought. When considering factors that are very or extremely important in their retirement decisions, 78 percent cited financial needs, 75 percent said health, 68 percent their ability to do their job and 67 percent said their need for employer benefits such as health insurance.

The shift in retirement expectations coincides with a growing trend of later-life work. Labor force participation of seniors fell for a half-century after the advent of Social Security, but began picking up in the late 1990s. Older adults are now the fastest-growing segment of the American workforce; people 55 and up are forecast to make up one-fourth of the civilian labor force in 2020.

Among those who retired, 4 percent are looking for a job and 11 percent are already working again. Those still on the job showed far greater interest in continuing to work: Some 47 percent of employed survey respondents said they are very or extremely likely to do some work for pay in retirement, and 35 percent said they are somewhat likely.

Six in 10 people said they feel younger than their age; only 6 percent said they feel older.

Baby boomers fueling wave of entrepreneurship ARLINGTON HEIGHTS, Ill. (AP) — Every passing month and unanswered resume dimmed Jim Glay’s optimism more. So with no job in sight, he joined a growing number of older people and created his own.

In a mix of boomer individualism and economic necessity, older Americans have fueled a wave of entrepreneurship. The result is a slew of enterprises such as Crash Boom Bam, the vintage drum company that 64-year-old Glay began running from a spare bedroom in his apartment in 2009.

The business hasn’t made him rich, but Glay credits it with keeping him afloat when no one would hire him.

“You would send out a stack of 50 resumes and not hear anything,” said Glay, who had been laid off from a sales job. “This has saved me.”

The annual entrepreneurial activity report published in April by the Kansas City, Mo.-based Ewing Marion Kauffman Foundation found the share of new entrepreneurs ages 55 to 64 grew from 14.3 percent in 1996 to 23.4 percent last year. Entrepreneurship among 45- to 54-year-olds saw a slight bump, while activity among younger age groups fell.

The foundation doesn’t track startups by those 65 and older, but Bureau of Labor Statistics data show that group has a higher rate of self-employment than any other age group.

Part of the growth is the result of the overall aging of America. But experts say older people are flocking to self-employment both because of a frustrating job market and the growing ease and falling cost of starting a business.

“It’s become easier technologically and geographically to do this at older ages,” said Dane Stangler, the research and policy director at Kauffman. “We’ll see continued higher rates of entrepreneurship because of these demographic trends.”

Running game powers Cardinals past ADM

By Jocelyn Sheets Daily News Sports Editor NEWTON — As the victory bell was ringing, juniors Nick Easley and Deonne Harris talked about the intensity staying at a high level throughout the four quarters Friday night for Newton’s Cardinals.

“We came out with more intensity tonight. We practiced hard all week. This something we have to maintain to keep doing well,” Harris said.

“The difference tonight?

Our intensity. We kept it up the whole game,” Easley said.

Both players scored twice for the Cardinals in a 45-28 win over visiting Adel DeSoto Minburn (4-3) in a non-district game. It was a game in which the Cardinals set the tone early, jumping out to a 10-0 lead, and never trailed.

Easley made NHS history catching two touchdown passes from junior quarterback Tyler Wood. Easley is one touchdown catch away from tying the school mark for most touchdown passes in a season. The catch at the 9-minute mark in the second quarter Friday night was his seventh.

Wood continued his ascent in NHS passing history. Wood became the first Cardinal quarterback to throw four touchdown passes in one game. The four scoring tosses pushed Wood’s school-career touchdown pass number to 19. He also tied the school record for most touchdown passes in a season at 11, joining Jon Dlough (2003).

Harris had a break-out game

against the Tigers. Harris got to the edge and rushed for 159 yards on 19 carries for the Cardinals. Harris scored twice in the second half. The first one capped an 80-yard answer-drive by the Cardinals. Harris went 24 yards for the touchdown on a fourthand-two play.

Harris’ second touchdown pushed the Cardinal lead to 45-28 with 4:27 left in the game. Newton used six minutes to go 65 yards on 12 plays — all on the ground — against ADM to stretch its lead back out to 19 points.

“Our run blocking was really good tonight. I give a lot of credit to our offensive line coach and the guys who play up front,” said Ed Ergenbright, Cardinal head coach. The Cardinals amassed 509 yards of total offense, and 358 yards came on 60 carries.

Mason Bowes, Jake Huizenga, Derek Wrage, Will Brock and Alex Bartels did the work along the offensive line of scrimmage for the Cardinals.

“Mason knew he didn’t play well last week and wanted to prove he could play better. He did. Jake and Derek are seniors who really get the job done up front. Will — well, what can you say about Will.

Hawks stay in the hunt for playoff spot

By Jocelyn Sheets Daily News Sports Editor NEW SHARON — Controlling the line of scrimmage, Lynnville-Sully’s Hawks run all over host North Mahaska Friday night in Class A, District 6 play.

The Hawks had 386 yards on the ground in their 56-6 win over the Warhawks.

With the victory, the Hawks move to 3-2 in district play and 3-4 overall.

The Hawks host English Valleys this coming Friday in Sully.

Caden Doll, senior running back and linebacker, averaged 33 yards a carry on

Friday against North Mahaska. Doll carried the football seven times, amassed Doll 231 yards and scored four touchdowns.

One of those touchdowns was a 97-yard run.

“When you have a guy getting those numbers, it means the guys up front are doing a great job. Caden ran the ball well and he got through the holes and turned on the after-burners,” said Mike Parkinson, Hawk head coach.

St. Louis takes lead in NLCS

ST. LOUIS (AP) — Matched against ace Clayton Kershaw, the only thing Michael Wacha lacked was a no-hit watch.

Wacha stared down a bases-loaded test in the sixth inning and pitched into the seventh, and the kids in the bullpen also

were impervious to October pressure, keeping the Los Angeles Dodgers bats silent for the second straight day and winning 1-0 Saturday for a 2-0 lead in the NL championship series.

Arrowhead Stadium breaks noise record KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — Arrowhead Stadium is once again the loudest stadium in the NFL. This time, it’s official.

The Kansas City Chiefs fans broke the world record for an outdoor sports stadium in their 24-7 win over Oakland when they reached 137.5 decibels in the clos-

ing minutes.

An official from Guinness World Records told The Associated Press that Chiefs fans broke the record of 136.6 set by Seahawks fans during a game against San Francisco earlier this year.

To put that in perspective, a jet engine at 100 feet is about 140 decibels.

Lions take down hampered Tigerhawks

tough on them. I was very pleased with their effort.”

Several players stepped up their defensive efforts for the Tigerhawks. Leading tackler on the season Jake Lietz set a season-high with 22 tackles,

16 of them solo. Also, sophomore Jake Buehrer had 15 stops for C-M, also a seasonhigh.

COLFAX — Injuries — they happen in all sports TIGERHAWKS and are an inevitable result of See Page 2B great effort, but it has been the injuries more than anything that have held back ColfaxMingo from piling up wins this season.

C-M fell 41-6 at home to Des Moines Christian on Friday night, and although Tigerhawk coach Jeff Lietz is not looking to make any excuses for his team, he knows that at the moment, they are very limited offensively.

“I hate to put a number on it, but I think we were missing about 71 percent of our offensive production,” Lietz said. “We had Juan (Gonzales) at quarterback, and he never really got comfortable back there. We tried to do some things with our running game, but we were just not a threat to pass at all.”

C-M quarterback Jared Myers will be out the remainder of the season with a knee injury, and the team was also missing one of its leading receivers in sophomore Blake Summy, who should return this week against Pella Christian.

With the absence of a dual threat offense, the Tigerhawk defense stepped up early.

Down 14-0 midway through the second quarter, Colin Lourens came free on a blitz and forced a bad throw out into the flat. James Stoecker took advantage, picking the ball off and returning it 59 yards for the only Tigerhawk score of the game.

“I think we came out more intense and more prepared on defense than we have all season,” Lietz said. “I know you look at the score and you see that we gave up 41 points, and Dustin Turner/Daily News it doesn’t look like the defense Colfax-Mingo sophomore Colin Lourens brings the heat to force did a great job, but when we a bad throw by DMC quarterback Grant Brockhouse.

Tigerhawks: Young players getting much needed experience Continued from Page 1B A lack of depth ultimately wore down the Tigerhawk defenders over the course of the game. Des Moines Christian continued to pound the ball at the Tigerhawks on the ground, forcing a physical contest that chipped away at an already hampered squad.

The Tigerhawks trailed just 21-6 at halftime, but the Lions came out with a plan to chip away at C-M. When the Tigerhawks were forced to throw the ball downfield, that’s when the game was blown open.

DMC forced three second-half interceptions, converting touchdowns on two of them and walked out victorious.

PCM moves to 4-0 on road with big win over Clarke

By Dustin Turner Daily News Sports Writer OSCEOLA — Prairie CityMonroe’s Mustangs dusted themselves off from last week’s disappointing loss to Albia and rolled over Class 2A, District 6 rival Clarke 48-7 on Friday night, improving their record to 4-0 away from Monroe.

Blake McWilliams carried the ball 15 times for 143 yards, including a 17-yard touchdown run, but most of the scoring came on the back of junior Ronnie Marshall. Marshall carried the ball five times, and four of those went for touchdowns, the longest of which was a 20-yard scamper into the end zone. Jade Coleman had two carries for 31 yards. Luke Cummings had one run of 23 yards.

Jaret Maggard carried the ball four times for 34 yards.

Sophomore quarterback Logan Gilman threw sparingly, but he was effective on the ground.

His connections were Zach Uhlenhopp, who caught two passes for 52 yards, and Ricky Reeve, who had a 15-yard touchdown catch.

Hawks: O-Line controls things up front Continued from Page 1B

Along the offensive line for Lynnville-Sully are Kyle Van Dyke, Kyle Hamilton, Noah Zylstra, Blake Wehrle and Zach Kaldenberg. Parkinson said Luke Rozendaal and Payton Scandridge rotate in along the line plus tight end Darin Hofer is a key element in the Hawks’ blocking scheme.

“It was great to see him catch a pass for a 65-yard touchdown play tonight,” Parkinson said.

Lynnville-Sully scored on its first play from scrimmage in the game. It happened again on its second possession.

“We had a quick start then in the second quarter, we kind of backed off and settled a bit,” Parkinson said. “At halftime, leading 21-6, we talked about what kind of team we wanted to be. Did we want to be a team that gives ourselves the opportunity to be back in the playoffs or just settle? The guys came out and proved they want to move forward.”

The Hawks scored 35 points in

the second half and did not give up any scores. Parkinson said there was a total team effort all the way around, especially on defense.

He said the Hawks Samson were able to get a lot of young kids in to play in the second half.

Bailee Samson had a 53-yard touchdown run, Meliek Meyer had a 59-yard run to the end zone and Daniel Zimmerman scored on a one-yard plunge. Hofer had the touchdown pass from Sage Ehresman, who was 3-of-6 passing for 69 yards.

Noah Engle kicked six extra points and Samson had a two-point conversion run.

T.J. Cunningham had an interception for the Hawk defense. Samson racked up two quarterback sacks while Doll led the team in total tackles.

Raiders fall to Albia on the road

By Dustin Turner Daily News Sports Writer

ALBIA — In a clash of Class 2A, District 6 teams, CollinsMaxwell/Baxter trailed undefeated Albia 14-6 going into halftime.

However, mistakes told the story of the second half for the Raiders, who were unable to hold on to the football and fell 42-6.

When the Blue Demons took the ball away from the Raiders, it was the ground game punching the ball into the end zone. Senior running back Alex Schultz ran 28 times for 207 yards and three Albia touchdowns. Christian Powless also got into the end zone, scoring once on three carries.

Senior quarterback Zach Samson did not get into his usual rhythm. The Blue Demons dared the Raiders to throw the ball, and although they had some initial

success, they ended up throwing five interceptions to Albia, mistakes the could not afford to make against the District leaders. Samson was 17-for-32 with 212 yards through the air. He also ran 17 times for 79 yards and a touchdown.

A u s t i n Moorman and Brady Stover were the main targets for Samson.

Stover caught eight passes for 81 yards, and Moorman Moorman picked seven receptions out of the air for 93 yards.

CMB running back Gabe Schabillion, who had gone for more than 100 yards in his previous two games, was held to 15 yards on five carries.

Brad Keselowski finally gets a break, and a victory

By Jenna Fryer AP Auto Racing Writer CONCORD, N.C. (AP) — It was just another surreal moment in this disappointing season for defending champion Brad Keselowski.

He pulled away from his pit stall with his jack planted underneath his car. The jack clattered and clanged as Keselowski dragged it around the track for what should have been one race-ruining lap around Charlotte Motor Speedway.

Instead, Keselowski finally caught a break.

A late caution — one that ruined Jimmie Johnson’s shot at a record seventh Sprint Cup Series win at Charlotte — gave Keselowski the chance to make an electric final dash to the finish and end a 37-race losing streak Saturday night. It gave the reigning champ his first victory of the season in a year in which he’s challenged for victories, but for one reason or another couldn’t close the deal.

It made him ineligible to defend his championship, so Keselowski’s win was the rare victory for a non-Chase driver in a “postseason” race. Kasey Kahne at Phoenix in 2011 was the last non-Chase winner.

“We’ve had speed in our cars.

There’s been weeks where we’ve had the execution, not as many as we want, but we haven’t always had those pieces

together, and then there’s been weeks where we’ve had the speed and execution, we’ve just had some rotten luck,” Keselowski said. “It’s just been one of those years where you say, ‘How much more can they throw at you?’ I think we ran out of things for them to throw at us ... with the jack and we still found a way to win, so that was very special.”

The caution with 27 laps remaining was for debris on the backstretch, as Johnson had a healthy lead in a fairly uneventful race. Before the yellow, it seemed certain Johnson would win and pass Matt Kenseth for the Sprint Cup Series points lead at the halfway point of the Chase, while Kenseth would likely catch teammate Kyle Busch in the closing laps of the race to finish third.

Keselowski was an afterthought.

“That last caution there at the end kind of reset it for us and gave us the opportunity to get in Victory Lane,” Keselowski crew chief Paul Wolfe said.

Everybody headed to pit road, where Kasey Kahne and Jeff Gordon were the only two drivers to take two tires. They were the first two back onto the track, while Johnson led everybody else off as the first driver with four fresh tires. Only Johnson lost four spots on the restart with 23 laps remaining, while Keselowski picked his way through traffic from sixth to second.

Newton: Cardinals generate energy to snag non-district victory over Tigers Continued from Page 1B Thongvanh had his best game of the season running the football with 88 yards on 15 carries. The junior also caught three passes for 91 yards, two of which went for touchdowns.

Newton struck first on its second possession of the game. Easley reached out and hauled in the football on a 31-yard pass for a touchdown from Wood with 5:07 left in the first quarter.

“I beat the guy on a slantand-go. T Wood put it right over the top and let me make a play on it. T Wood is good and it’s nice catching passes from him,” Easley said.

Senior strong safety Levi Michener produced the first of his two forced fumbles on the night when he and defensive lineman Troy Exley combined to tackle ADM quarterback Kolby Whisner in the backfield. Michael Barr was there to recover the football for Newton.

Newton had the ball at the ADM 12-yard line but couldn’t get any closer. Ryan Thompson, who had kicked the extra point earlier, booted a 28-yard field goal. Newton led 10-0 at the end of the first quarter.

The Cardinals had regained possession with 17 seconds remaining in the first quarter. They used three minutes of the second period on a drive, finished off with an 18-yard scoring strike from Wood to Easley. The extrapoint kick failed, leaving it 16-0.

It took the Tigers only one play to get on the scoreboard.

Whisner hit Tate Jensen in stride. Jensen raced 62 yards for the touchdown and Jacob Hutzell kicked the extra point. Later in the period, Whisner connected with Joseph Sloss, but Wood forced a fumble and Michener recovered for Newton.

The Cardinals moved from their own 33-yard line into Tiger territory. They were unable to score again before halftime, but they kept the football away from the Tigers long enough that time ran out on ADM’s final drive of the half.

Jocelyn Sheets/Daily News Reaching out to haul in a 31-yard touchdown pass for Newton is Nick Easley, who got behind the defensive coverage of Adel DeSoto Minburn’s Robert Sloss (2) and Jaxon Sloan (17) to put the Cardinals up 7-0. Newton went on to beat ADM 45-28 Friday in a home non-district contest.

Michener pulled double duty for the Cardinal defense on ADM’s first possession of the second half. Michener caused another fumble while sacking Whisner. Daquan Allen recovered the football for Newton at the ADM 49-yard line with 8:52 on the thirdquarter clock.

Wood found Joseph Banfield for an 11-yard pass play on third down then ran for eight yards. On another thirddown play, Wood passed the ball to Thongvanh, who slipped a couple of tackles to get to the end zone. He was being pulled down by the Tigers’ Jensen, when he twisted his way over the goal line on the scoring play that went 29 yards. Grant Davidson kicked the extra point.

Grant Goeden took the ensuing kickoff 94 yards for a touchdown. With the extra point, the Tigers were within 10 points, 23-13.

“I was really proud of how our guys fought and hung with it. We didn’t lose our focus or our energy level at anytime during the game,” Ergenbright said. “We had another good start. At halftime, these kids were so bound and determined it was not going to get away from them as the Grinnell game did. This is exactly

what they needed.”

Newton’s offense responded with a scoring drive, which ate up over three minutes.

Harris scored from 24 yards out then tacked on the twopoint conversion. ADM answered, using a long pass play to set up a three-yard touchdown run by Goeden, who also had a two-point conversion.

It was back and forth with the Cardinals staying out front. Each team scored on long pass plays to open the fourth quarter. Wood and Thongvanh connected again for a 47-yard touchdown strike with Davidson kicking the extra point.

The Tigers got a 60-yard hook-up between Whisner and Jensen. Whisner finished the game 16-of-24 for 315 yards passing. Jensen had nine catches for 267 yards.

Then came the 80-yard, 12-play march down the field by the Cardinals for the final touchdown.

“This feels amazing. We knew we had to improve. Our intensity level just jumped,” said Jake Huizenga, senior offensive lineman. “We were really getting on (blocking) who were supposed to throughout the game.”

Brock, Huizenga’s senior

Eagles come up short against No. 6 Van Meter

By Jocelyn Sheets Daily News Sports Editor VAN METER — Pella Christian’s Eagles had the Class 1A, sixth-ranked Van Meter Bulldogs right where they wanted them.

The Eagles had just scored a touchdown, pulling to within one point, 14-13.

A two-point conversion run to senior Mason Howerzyl, who had 22 carries for 93 yards in the game, came up short for the Eagles.

Van Meter stopped Howerzyl shy of the goal line with 1:41 remaining in the game. It was a 60yard pass play from Colten Collins

to Jake De Ruiter that put the Eagles in the end zone in the fourth quarter.

Pella Christian has struck first in the Class 1A, District 7 contest. Howerzyl finished off a 14play, 84-yard drive for the Eagles by bulling over from one-yard out.

Jacob Brouwer kicked the extra point.

Van Meter tied the game up on a Brandon Brittain pass to Logan Crawford covering 14 yards to the end zone. Bryce Godwin kicked the tying extra point.

The Eagles and Bulldogs were locked in a 7-7 halftime tie. Van Meter broke the tie at the 2:20 mark of the third quarter on a oneyard run by Brittain. That finished a 99-yard, 13-play march by the Bulldogs.

Van Meter’s workhorse for the night was Cody Blackwell, who rushed for 152 yards on 27 carries and caught two passes for 23 yards.

Pella Christian got 22 yards on five carries from Levi Jungling.

Collins was 4-of-8 for 81 yards, one touchdown and one interception. De Ruiter had three catches for 71 yards and Jungling had one reception for 10 yards.

Andrew Vander Hart paced the Eagle defense with seven solo tackles and six assited tackesl. Zach Van Zee had seven unassisted and five assists and Jungling made seven solo stops and one assisted tackle.

David Kacmarynski was credited with six solo tackles and one assisted. Zach Rozendaal had three solos and eight assisted tackles Pella Christian (3-4, 1-3 in district) hosts Colfax-Mingo this Friday.

offensive line teammate, switched to his defensive mode. He and the Cardinal defense sealed the deal on Friday night. Allen, senior defensive back, forced the ball loose from the Tigers and Brock recovered the football.

Wood and the offense ran the clock out. Wood was 6-of-14 for 151 yards passing plus rushed for 109 yards on 19 carries.

Brook had six solo stops and one assisted tackle. Wood, who started as a defensive back for the first time this season recorded five unassisted tackels and sophomore defensive back Bryce Tish had four solo tackles and one assisted tackle. Senior linebacker Nick Glotfelty had three unassisted tackles and two assists.

“Where has this team been? It’s the team we knew we had. We saw glimpses of it in other games but not for a full game. This is the energy and focus we need to carry into our final two games,” Ergenbright said.

The 3-4 Cardinals travel to Des Moines to play Saydel this coming Friday in Class 3A, District 4 play. Newton is 1-3 in district play.

NLCS: Teams are in L.A. for Game 3 tonight Continued from Page 1B The Cardinals managed only two hits off Kershaw and the Dodgers, but Jon Jay’s sacrifice fly set up by Freese’s double and A.J. Ellis’ passed ball in the fifth stood up.

The Dodgers’ scoreless streak in the NLCS reached 19 innings after they averaged 6 1⁄2 runs in a four-game division series against Atlanta. Rookie fireballer Trevor Rosenthal struck out the

side in the ninth with a heater reaching 101 mph, fanning pinch-hitter Andre Ethier on three pitches to end it.

A day after outlasting Los Angeles 3-2 in 13 innings, the Cardinals moved two wins away from the World Series.

Game 3 is Monday at Dodger Stadium, with Cardinals ace Adam Wainwright facing rookie Hyun-Jin Ryu. The Dodgers have already used their top two starters and have nothing to show for it.

Red Sox rally past Tigers, tie up ALCS BOSTON (AP) — David Ortiz revived the Red Sox with a tying grand slam in the eighth inning, then Jarrod Saltalamacchia hit a winning single in the ninth as Boston stunned the Detroit Tigers 6-5 Sunday night to even the AL championship series at 1-all.

The Tigers were cruising to their second straight win at Fenway Park, with starter Max Scherzer taking a no-hitter and a 5-0 lead into the sixth inning.

But with one swing, Big Papi flipped everything. Ortiz hit a two-out shot that sent right fielder Torii Hunter jackknifing into the Boston bullpen in a futile attempt to catch the ball, making it 5-up.

Saltalamacchia’s single came after a series of Tigers misplays in the ninth. A wild throw, a wild pitch and a missed catch by first baseman Prince Fielder on a foul ball set up the game-ending hit.

The teams head to Detroit for Game 3 on Tuesday. Justin Verlander will face Boston’s John Lackey.

A day after Anibal Sanchez and the Detroit staff combined on a one-hitter for a 1-0 win, Scherzer excelled. He fanned 13 while allowing two hits in seven innings, and was pulled after 108 pitches.

Miguel Cabrera and Alex Avila homered off Clay Buchholz in Detroit’s four- run sixth inning.

Undefeated ranks down to 2 AFC West teams

By Daily News Staff Looks like the only place for the undefeated is the AFC West.

Denver and Kansas City are the last two teams with perfect NFL records after the Broncos beat Jacksonville 35-19 — hardly the margin projected by most — and the Chiefs defeated Oakland 247. New Orleans, the NFC’s only spotless team, was handed its first loss by Tom Brady’s sensational last-minute drive, falling at New England 30-27 Sunday.

In other games Sunday, it was: Green

Bay 19, Baltimore 17; Cincinnati 27, Buffalo 24 in overtime; Seattle 20, Tennessee 13; San Francisco 32, Arizona 20; Dallas 31, Washington 16; St. Louis 38, Houston 13; Carolina 35, Minnesota 10; Philadelphia 31, Tampa Bay 20; Pittsburgh 19, the New York Jets 6; and Detroit 31, Cleveland 17.

The weekend began with Chicago’s 27-21 win over the Giants on Thursday night, lifting the Bears to 4-2 and dropping New York to 0-6.

Monday night has Indianapolis (4-1) at San Diego (2-3).

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Oct. 15). You are the hero of your story and bonded to your inner guidance. You’ll shift into a higher gear in November, kicking work projects up a notch. You’ll earn more in December. Entertainment and new friends are part of the fun in January. The best times to travel are March and June. Keep the promise you make in May. Pisces and Aries people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 11, 30, 49, 24 and 14.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23).

When you witness today’s remarkable presentation or piece of entertainment, be aware of how much work went into its creation. It’s amazing how much goes

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Sometimes being alive doesn’t seem to have any particular feeling attached to it.

But today you’ll find there’s a certain rapture in it. It’s like every cell of you recognizes the great gift that life is.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22Dec. 21). You’re totally self-motivated. That’s why it’s likely you’ll work alone.

The others go where they’ve been led and focus there.

You’ll go off on a tangent that’s personal, interesting and completely engaging.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22Jan. 19). You come up with the magic combination of word and tone to make things happen. You’ll get people to wait patiently or work quickly, whichever you need them to do.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Give people ideas and support, but avoid solving their problem just yet.

You’ll rob them of the chance to compensate you!

It ultimately will be better for everyone if you are paid in some way.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Discipline counts more than natural talent -- much, much more. The natural talent you have may serve to make practice more fun, but ultimately, it’s the practice, not the talent, that will make you successful.

ARIES (March 21-April 19).

You’ve experimented and stretched beyond the boundaries that still limit others.

Now it may be time to reel things in a bit. Get feedback before you take your work to the general public.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Check in with yourself to see just how much you really care about something that used to be important to you.

Chances are you will find out that it’s no longer as important, and this will free you up to choose a juicier goal.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21).

You used to daydream about having early success in your career followed by early re-

Mars enters Virgo with a question: Does it really matter what’s popular or cool?

If you’re in business, there’s something that matters more, and that’s your return on investment. The same principle applies in nonbusiness relationships. Mars in Virgo helps us quantify what we put in and weigh it against what we get out.

Lost your Cat?

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22).

You’ll use your mechanical skills and create a temporary fix for the problem that threatened to throw a wrench in the works. With a little skill and some elbow grease, you’ll save the day.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22).

You’ll need to handle more than the usual amount of paperwork, memos and lists in order to get your life and work in order today. Organization is your strong suit, though, so you’ll sail through the parts that would be harder for others.
