It’s time once again for area women to enjoy an evening out with girlfriends and see what local retailers have to offer.

On Thursday, at the Newton DMACC Conference Center, the Newton Daily News will be hosting the fifth annual Ladies Night Out, a great opportunity to get in contact with vendors you don’t usually see.

“I think it’s a great opportunity for ladies to attend because they can see a lot of vendors all in one place. Some people don’t have a consultant or their consultant has retired, but this gives them the chance to network with new people,” said Brenda Lamb,

A Newton man was arrested and charged with a number of traffic violations, as well as aggravated eluding, after leading police on a brief chase Monday night.

Healthcare costs to rise for county government

By Ty Rushing Daily News Staff Writer

During the brief pursuit that ensued, it is alleged Bass accelerated to speeds as high as 60 mph while driving through the residential neighborhood. He also is alleged to have failed to stop at five different stop signs, and to have driven for a time on the wrong side of the road.

Jasper County citizens now will have an idea what county employee healthcare costs look like for next year, as the Jasper County Board of Supervisors approved next year’s health and life insurance, long-term disability and dental coverage service providers on Tuesday.

The county currently pays $159,691.89 per month to provide its employees those services, and officials estimated next year’s cost will increase to $178,039.90 per month. Robert Meller, an employee benefit consultant who negotiates on behalf of the county, said this would be an increase of 11.5 percent and recommended the county swap health insurance providers.

“That’s pretty hefty, but we’ve been pretty lucky in the past. Well, the last couple of years anyway,” board member Joe Brock said.

“Correct. We’ve run nine years with the same digit increases, and in one of those nine years, we had zero increases,” Meller said.

“We’re definitely ahead of the inflationary medical curve, and we’ve done well.”

Wellmark-Blue Cross/Blue Shield was selected as the new health insurance provider, and the county will pay $164,357.38 per month. Delta Dental was retained for the dental services, and the county will pay $5,555.03 per month. Principal Life Company will provide life insurance and long-term disability coverage, and the county will pay it $4,143.89

Council

LWV hosting panel discussion Thursday The League of Women Voters of Jasper County will host a panel discussion regarding farming techniques used to promote clean water at 7:30 p.m. Thursday in the Park Centre Garden Room.

Panel discussion participants are Calvin Winn, local farmer; Gene Kaldenberg, Jasper County Soil and Conservation commissioner and local farmer; and Curt Donohue, district conservationist for Natural Resources Conservation Services.

Winn has been farming since 1962 and currently farms approximately 450 acres. He has used no till farming techniques since 1969 and uses a variety of measures to promote water quality, including cover crops.

Gene Kaldenberg has been farming for 40 years and currently farms approximately 200 acres. His father was a conservationist.

Kaldenberg taught high school chemistry for four years before having the opportunity to return to farming. He currently does crop farming and uses grass strips and other measures for soil erosion and water control.

Curt Donohue is the District Conservationist for the USDA Natural Resources Conservation Services. He has served in this capacity since 1998.

The panel discussion is in conjunction with the league’s continuing agriculture study. The public is invited and encouraged to attend this informative discussion.

NHS Class of 1958 plans to meet Friday The Newton Senior High School Class of 1958 will meet at 9 a.m. Friday for fellowship and coffee at PJ’s Deli. All class members and guests are invited.

Continued from Page 1A Efforts to develop a vision and strategy for the Newton Downtown area were initially targeted for a Dec. 1 completion date.

However, should Newton be designated a Main Street Community, a number of useful tools for the development of a vision and strategy would immediately become available through the Iowa Economic Development Authority and Main Street Iowa.

Friedman noted the North Central Urban Renewal Area was expanded to include the Newton Downtown area at the Oct. 7 council meeting. An ordinance will come before the council Nov. 4 to change the North Central TIF District boundaries to cover that area.

In his notes to the council prior to the meeting, Friedman said the expanded TIF district would allow for funding to be used on streetscaping of the Jasper County Courthouse square area.

Friedman noted the changes to the Urban Renewal Plans were meant to conform to changes in Iowa Code. Councilors and mayor Michael Hansen joked a couple times about “going to jail,” but the new provisions are no joking matter to state officials.

City staff has worked diligently, City Administrator Bob Knabel said, to ensure the city is using money generated by Newton’s TIF districts for their stated purposes.

The goal is to also make additional “targeted investments” mean to improve economic development in the city.

The Newton Downtown SelfSupported Municipal Improvement District Board has been meeting regularly to plan and make decisions about the $12,800 in collected SSMID taxes, as well as an additional $5,000 pledged by Renew Newton.

munity survey is available at www. newtongov.org/downtownsurvey.

Asked by councilors about initial glitches with the survey website, Chambers said those have been fixed. She encouraged everyone in the community to participate.

Chambers also is a member of the Main Street Program application team, which meets at 7:30 a.m. every Thursday in the Greater Newton Area Chamber of Commerce conference room. She said the Newton Historic Preservation Commission’s efforts to have the Newton Downtown area become part of the National Register of Historic Places have been helpful in the Main Street Program efforts, as well.

The district is expected to be listed on the National Register next year.

“There will be community rallies Nov. 7 at the Capitol II Theater. One will be at noon, the other at 5:30 p.m.,” she said. “We hope as many of you as possible can come as we try to build support for the Main Street Program. It will be a great opportunity for the community to learn more about the process.”

Work continues on efforts to install way-finding signs, not only in the Newton Downtown area, but throughout the entire community.

Design work is nearly complete, and the city is working with the Iowa Department of Transportation on way-finding signage rules along Iowa Highway 14 and First Avenue (U.S. Highway 6).

A group of volunteers throughout the community is working to develop a new branding and marketing strategy for the city. City staff has also been working with the Greater Des Moines Partnership through its Capital Crossroads program, which Friedman said could also benefit Newton’s economic development efforts.

Public Works Director Keith Laube updated the council on the city’s $8,000 grant from the Central Iowa Regional Transportation Planning Alliance to study Newton’s needs for park-and-ride service. He said the study will identify needs and possible locations, but could not say when — or if — a park-and-ride program would get underway.

Another key component of Goal C is to draw young families to Newton. A major partner in the city’s effort in this regard has been the Newton Community School District, which has also played a

role in the branding and marketing efforts underway.

The current Comprehensive Plan calls for more collaboration between the school district and local businesses and organizations. The school district itself has reached out to the community, asking for its help with its own District Improvement Team efforts.

Meanwhile, the Newton Parks Board is working on a long-range plan for the city’s parks system to improve park facilities to meet the needs of those who are using them.

The board is prioritizing projects to enhance existing parks.

Previously, the council approved moving forward with the Buxton Study, which will provide detailed information to assist existing businesses, as well as to draw new retail businesses to Newton. And, the city is working to promote and become more involved in community events.

Chambers noted the painted snowplow blades that were a part of the Chamber’s annual Fourth of July Parade. She also pointed out the city had a booth at Thanks With Franks this year.

Improvements to the Maytag Bowl has also provided a “top-notch venue” for community events, like Bowlful of Blues. And, at the Oct. 7 meeting, Library Director Sue Padilla outlined the library’s efforts to engage new people in the community.

Chambers also noted the Comprehensive Plan Implementation Committee, an 18-member citizen advisory committee created in April, has created a budget with the $250,000 it was allocated. It has since broken up into smaller teams to address the following projects: • way-finding signage; • clean-up of the First Avenue West neighborhood, starting with the railroad bridge; • efforts to install sculptures for the Rent-a-Sculpture efforts with a call to artists planned over the winter and installation in April or May; • branding and marketing, which is nearing completion; and • analysis of how the Keep Iowa Beautiful program and complement the city’s community grant writer efforts.

Councilor Noreen Otto was quick to point out, following the presentation, how good it was to see the Action Plan go from just a plan to real action. Other members of the council echoed those sentiments.

Ty’s Take

Beer, vets are story of my epic weekend I hate waking up early, especially on the weekends. However, this Saturday I had a pretty good reason to crawl out of bed and it actually didn’t involve a bowl of cereal and cartoons.

I was going to hang out with some of my favorite people in world, the “Red

By Ty Rushing Shirts” and the veterans of Jasper Daily News Staff Writer County.

It is a well-known fact I love my vets! In the time that I have been here in Newton, the vets and I have truly embraced each other. I’ve drank, laughed and shared both triumph and tragedy with the vets of this community and I felt honored to receive an invite to the bus trip Saturday.

The plan was to meet at the American Legion at 9 a.m. and from there, visit the Iowa Veteran’s Cemetery in Van Meter, the Freedom Rock in Greenfield and finally lunch at Smokey D’s before heading back to town. This plan went off without a hitch; the only trouble was waking up on Saturday for me.

I had spent Friday evening freezing my butt off in a gherri curl wig, surrounded by French maids watching “The Rocky Horror Picture Show” for the first time and it was on an outdoor screen. It was fun, but weird (Thanks, Clistia, Marv and Eunie).

Anywho, let’s get back to the bus trip.

As most of us who rode the bus growing up know, all the cool kids sit in the back and this again rang true.

My seat buddy, Korean War veteran Bob St. John, and I were in the thick of the Red Shirt shenanigans in the back and got first dibs on “Apple Pie,” snacks and as Doug Bishop phrased it, “adult refreshments.”

Apple pie — trust me, it wasn’t of

the dessert variety — and beer are always great ways to get the party started.

I loved the interactions that took place on the bus maybe more than seeing the sites. Bob told me about his time in the service his family and his dog. He also spoke about how he was thinking about mixing whiskey with an energy drink (I hope I’m that cool in my 80s).

The mother and daughter duo of Linda and Mellissa (they’re like a prettier and funnier version of The Judds) provided their usual sense of humor and I got to meet a really inspirational middle school student. Lindsay is only 13, but has been helping out with the Freedom Flights and other vet-related activities in the county for years.

Lindsay was the youngest person on the bus by far, but she displayed a maturity beyond her years. I asked her what got a person so young interested in wanting to help the vets and she credited her parents.

Great job, Amy and Kevin. Be very proud of her.

In addition to running into the usual cast of characters I see at the Legion, I ran into Lynn Harnden, who was the first-ever veteran I wrote about way back in January. He challenged me to see if I remembered him (I did, of course) and for me that was kind of like a full-circle moment.

The transformation from being a rookie veterans affairs writer to being known as the guy for veterans coverage in Jasper County is a great feeling.

Aside from our adventures on the bus, the sites themselves were definitely worth the trip.

The Iowa Veterans Cemetery is still in its infancy, but looks great. It is maintained to federal standards. I also found out we only have two known Jasper County vets there, which I’m taking as a sign to do a follow-up.

I really enjoyed the Freedom Rock.

Bubba Sorenson II, the artist, has done a great a job of creating moments on

The First Amendment

this rock. I know how much artistic talent we have in Jasper County and I can’t wait to see what ours will look like.

I’m also casting my vote for Sommer Kibbee right here and now to get first crack at the rock.

After the rock, we hit up Smokey D’s BBQ. While I did get full, I’ll put it this way — it wasn’t too high on the Kansas City scale. All the hard work that Hickory Park in Ames and Newton’s own Smokin’ Mississippi Queen

did to grow my appreciation for Iowa barbecue almost seemed for not.

With our bellies full, we climbed back on our Hawkeye Stages motorcoach and prepared for the trek back to Newton. The whole trip was great, but I think one of my favorite moments occurred as I was walking back to my seat and a World War II veteran put his hand up for a high five.

I gave him five back, went back to my seat with a smile on my face and had another beer with Bob.

The new prices and coverages start on Jan. 1 for county employees.

At the request of County Sanitarian Kevin Luetters and Judson Vos, the board approved waiving its right to appeal Vos’ upcoming hog confinement project to the Iowa Department of Natural Resources. Vos made the request so he would be allowed to start getting his new confinement constructed before the weather turned.

“The county’s already approved and the DNR’s preliminarily approved the permit,” Luetters said. “We still have a 14-day window to change our mind.

With the weather being the way it is, Judson Vos has asked me to ask you guys to waive the 14-day period, which we can.”

With the board’s approval, Vos can now began construction to expand his current hog confinement facility from being able to hold 2,400 head to 4,800 finished market hogs.

Olson said the project is expected to take several months and will begin in January. Olson’s department also received approval to vacate a portion of Main Street in Killduff. She said the road was never opened to the public and is on a citizen’s private property.

The citizen made the request, and because the road was never open to the public, the public hearings weren’t necessary.

THE BORN LOSER

FAMILY CIRCUS

Wednesday, October 23, 2013

Cross-dressing husband worries his secret is out DEAR ABBY: I am a happily married, heterosexual cross-dressing male.

My wife understands and is supportive, and we have a wonderful life together.

During the past week I have been caught unexpectedly by three different neighbors, and we are now in a state of panic. We’re not sure what to do. If you have any suggestions, we are all ears. — CAUGHT IN A PANIC DEAR CAUGHT: Because you would prefer to keep your cross-dressing private and this is October, you could tell your neighbors your female attire is what you’ll be wearing to a costume party. It’s plausible.

However, when someone is “caught” engaging in a private activity once — that’s an accident. When it happens three times in one week, I can’t help but wonder whether on some level you would like to be more open about your lifestyle.

If you’re not aware, a resource, The Society for the Second Self (Tri-Ess International), offers support for heterosexual cross-dressers as well as their spouses, partners and families. It has been in my column before and is the oldest and largest support organization for cross-dressers and those who love them. It promotes cross-dressing with dignity and decency, and treats spouses on an equal basis with their cross-dressers. You can learn more about it at www.tri-ess.org.

DEAR ABBY: My best friend’s husband has been texting me. When he did it the first time, he had been drinking and my friend was asleep. Some of the things he said made me uncomfortable, but I also didn’t like that he said his wife didn’t know what he was doing. He stopped after I told him I was uncomfortable with it.

Now he has started up again, offering support because my mother passed away recently. I am honestly not sure whether he’s trying to be a good friend or if he’s looking for something more, and that scares me. I don’t want to start trouble between my friend and her husband, especially because they seem so happy together. Any ideas on how to handle this?

— UNSETTLED IN OHIO DEAR UNSETTLED: Yes. Your friend’s husband may be a genuinely sympathetic person — or he could be trying to take advantage of you while you’re emotionally vulnerable. Listen to your gut. Tell him you appreciate his thoughtfulness, but you already have a support system in place and are receiving all of the emotional support you need.

DEAR ABBY: My 17-year-old cousin died in 2010, and I’m still hurting. I have tried to get over it, but we were really close. When I walk the halls at school, I hear people say bad things about him.

When I bring his name up, no one has anything good to say about him. It seems like they don’t really care that he was my cousin and I loved him.

How can I ask these people not to say bad things about him? — HURTING IN INDIANA DEAR HURTING: Because people forget that the young man who died was your relative, feel free to remind them. All you need to say is: “You know, he was my cousin and we were close. I still miss him, and I wish you wouldn’t say things like that about him when I’m around.”

Losing a relative at any age is hard, but when the person is young, it can be even harder. Because you are still hurting and it has been three years, consider talking about this with a school counselor or joining a grief support group. Your clergyperson can help you locate one.

Pleasant View UMC hosts Nov. 1 supper

Harper Family to perform at Bar None Cowboy Church Special to the Daily News The Harper Family will be featured at the Bar None Cowboy Church this week.

From the hills of Missouri, the Harpers are a family group that shares their music and faith in a bluegrass style. Gaylon and Katrina met a bluegrass festival where they were performing, Gaylon with the Bressler Brothers and Katrina with her family, The Bob Lewis Family. In need of a banjo picker, the Lewises hired Gaylon. Within a year, Gaylon and Katrina were married. The two began a family of their own and had three talented

children who perform with their parents.

Now 19 years old, Dalton is the guitar player, sings lead and harmony, writes songs for the group and takes care of all scheduled bookings.

Dillon, 17, plays progressive style mandolin, sings lead and harmony, writes songs, and incorporates the message pertaining to the music. He has a heart for mission work and personal ministry.

The fiddle player of the group is 12-year-old Hannah. She packs a powereful lead along with harmony vocals. She is ambitious in her career in singing for the Lord.

Gaylon drives the bus, picks

the banjo, sings baritone and tenor and is the spokesman of the group.

The Harper Family’s music varies due to the fact the four of the five sing lead, and three contribute by writing original songs.

Although their style of music is bluegrass, it veers toward contemporary acoustic instrumentation that draws people from all genres The Bar None Cowboy Church meets at 7 p.m. every Thursday at the building next to Culver’s in Newton.

Cardinals are Little Hawkeye champs Newton defeats Pella in three straight sets on Senior Night

By Jocelyn Sheets Daily News Sports Editor NEWTON — There was a hesitation. Everyone for Newton was sure the volleyball returned by Pella landed outside the line. They had to wait for the official’s signal.

A whistle and the official’s signal touched off a roar and celebration Tuesday night by Newton’s Cardinals and their fans. The Cardinals are the 2013 Little Hawkeye Conference volleyball champions.

They needed to knockoff Pella’s Little Dutch, who came into the match undefeated in conference play. Check.

The Cardinals did it in three straight sets, 2520, 26-24, 26-24.

On Senior Night, the senior-laden Cardinals celebrated Newton’s first-ever LHC volleyball championship. Newton has been a member of the Little Hawkeye for five years.

“There aren’t words enough to describe what this means to our team,” said Holly Vander Pol, one of seven seniors on the squad. “We just went out there tonight and gave it all we had.

This is huge for us.”

Jocelyn Sheets/Daily News Welcome to the block — Newton’s Bailey Beaderstadt (4) blocks a hit by Pella’s Makenna Bogaard (6) with Cardinal teammate Michaela Bleeker (13) right there to lend a hand if needed during Tuesday’s “winner-take-all” Little Hawkeye Conference match. The Cardinals, on Senior Night, swept Pella to claim the school’s first LHC volleyball championship. Newton won 25-20, 26-24, 26-24.

Three team goals were set by the Cardinals going into 2013, which would be the final season for head coach Kim

Florke. Set a new team record in season matchwins. Check. Win Little Hawkeye Conference championship. Check.

Jocelyn Sheets/Daily News Newton’s Cardinals celebrate winning the 2013 Little Hawkeye Conference volleyball championship at home over Pella Tuesday.

Secure a Class 4A state tournament berth.

Working on it.

Newton, which is 13th ranked in 4A, still has to play at Southeast Polk Thursday to finish out the regular season.

The Cardinals are 26-11.

“Wow, this is great for our kids. They are a determined and focused group. They come ready to practice hard and it shows in matches,” said Florke, who was presented a plaque before the match in recognition of her 14 years as head coach of the Cardinals.

“This was the best home crowd we’ve had since I’ve been here. The students were great for our team.”

“We have Southeast Polk on Thursday, which gives us a great

quality match before regional play,” Florke said.

The Cardinals earned a first-round bye in next week’s Class 4A, Region 4 tournament. Newton hosts the winner of next Monday’s GrinnellADM match on Halloween, Oct. 31. The match is set for 7 p.m. at NHS. Tuesday night was a sweep for Newton volleyball. The junior varsity earned a 25-21, 14-25, 15-13 win. The freshmen finished up an undefeated conference run with a 25-16, 26-10 win.

Newton’s varsity knew it wasn’t going to be easy. Pella came in at 20-14 and had beaten Newton on the NHS court during the Cardinal Invitational.

The first set was

Little Hawkeye Conference 2013 Volleyball Standings Team Conference Newton 6-1 Pella 6-1 Dallas Center-Grimes 5-2 Pella Christian 3-4 Grinnell 3-4 Knoxville 3-4 Norwalk 1-6 Oskaloosa 1-6

back-and-forth early.

A three-point serving run by senior Jennifer Ventling put the Cardinals up 10-7 and they never trailed again.

Freshman setter Megan Pressgrove had a threepoint run — two were aces — to bump the lead to 22-13. Newton won 25-20.

BAXTER — Confidence is everything.

Collins-Maxwell/Baxter’s volleyball team kept its season going in a straight set win on Tuesday night over Colfax-Mingo 25-15, 25-14, 25-20. CMB has come a long way from the group of girls that broke camp for the Raiders in late August, according to coach Scott Ranck. Ranck noted the radical difference in confidence and self-assuredness from August to now.

“We had a lot of young players at the start of the year,” he said.

“Just going through our conference, which is such a tough conference every night, and learning from things we did right and mistakes they just started to gel. We just gained more confidence as the year went on, which is what you would hope of young kids.”

Senior Abbie Haupert showed some talent and enthusiasm during the match, getting her teammates involved in celebrations following every kill. The senior was the most polished Raider player coming into the year, but Ranck commented that what has been the key

Papi back in World Series after ignoring naysayers BOSTON (AP) — David Ortiz missed nearly half of last year’s disastrous Red Sox season with a heel injury.

Then he was sidelined with it throughout spring training and the start of this season.

There were whispers that the slugger who had won two World Series titles with Boston was at the end of the line.

And Big Papi heard them.

“People are always going to talk trash,” the slugging designated hitter said Tuesday.

“You’re never going to make everyone happy so what you Ortiz do is just come in, do your thing and what can those people do about it? In my case, I’m done putting attention to what people have to say.”

They’ve been saying nice things going into Wednesday night’s opener against the St. Louis Cardinals.

Ortiz led the Red Sox with a .309 batting average, 30 homers and 103 RBIs this season. In Game 2 of the AL championship series against the Detroit Tigers, he hit a game-tying grand slam in the eighth. Boston won 6-5 on Jarrod Saltalamacchia’s RBI single in the ninth.

But Ortiz makes a huge contribution off the field with his bubbly personality and winning smile.

Cardinals reliever Randy Choate saw that when he was playing baseball in the Dominican Republic in the offseason.

“We had a pickup softball game and it was an off day and we were all hanging out,” he said. “I remember someone threw one and he hit one, literally, 500 feet. It was unbelievable, but he was just there having a good time and hanging out with everybody, being down to earth.”

Red Sox third baseman Will Middlebrooks was in awe when he saw Ortiz the first time he went to spring training.

“He carries himself very well,” Middlebrooks said. “Just the confidence he has rubs off on everybody. Then last year, getting to know him, being able to work with him, all the things he’s done for this game, being there to help the rookies, he’s such an open book. That’s what surprised me the most.”

But last year was a tough one.

The Red Sox’s 69-93 record was their worst in nearly half a century. Bobby Valentine’s stint as manager ended when he was fired after his first season.

Ortiz hit .318 with 23 homers and 60 RBIs but played in just 90 games.

“What happened last year was kind of a freak of an injury,” Red Sox outfielder Daniel Nava said, “but what he was doing before that point, everyone saw that he was locked in. If there ever was a time to say ‘Papi’s got more life in him,’ it was then. He’s also become a smarter hitter.”

When Ortiz’s heel injury persisted in spring training, the fans’ worries continued. But not for the players.

“We knew what was going on,” Nava said. “Obviously, you can’t relay everything to the public, so since we had the inside track I wasn’t worried. I don’t think anyone else was worried. We knew he was going to be back.”

Now he has a chance for his third championship in 10 years, and Cardinals pitchers know the damage he can do.

“I don’t think I would be overwhelmed” facing him, starter Joe Kelly said. “I just see him as another big power left-handed hitter like Adrian Gonzalez.

He’s just another guy who can do damage with guys on base if you’re not careful.”

Joaquin Benoit wasn’t careful.

So Ortiz tagged the Tigers closer for the grand slam that turned around the ALCS. Cardinals closer Trevor Rosenthal saw that homer.

“I think even without that, you knew that he’s going to have the opportunity to make a huge impact with one swing,” he said.

And if he puts Boston ahead late, closer Koji Uehara is likely to save the game and then get picked up and carried over Ortiz’s shoulder — a trademark of recent wins.

“I don’t mind,” Uehara said. “He’s obviously the face of the team. If he’s doing well, our team is also going to do well.”

Texas dad accuses opposing coach of bullying in 91-0 high school football game

By Betsy Blaney Associated Press Texas high school coach Tim Buchanan benched his starters after only 21 plays, kept to a conservative ground game and even allowed the clock to run uninterrupted after halftime to hasten the final whistle. Still, his Bearcats won 91-0.

Now the coach is facing formal accusations of bullying.

The impressive victory for undefeated Aledo High School, a football powerhouse in suburban Fort Worth that has put up similar numbers against other schools, has forced an investigation after a parent from the opposing team filed a bullying complaint. The complaint, which must be investigated under state law, says

Buchanan should have done more to prevent the lopsided score.

“It wasn’t good for anybody,” Buchanan said of the Friday win over Western Hills in a Class 4A matchup.

“I’ve sat and gone over and over and over it on what we could have done differently. The score could have very easily been 150 to nothing.”

Under state law, Aledo’s principal must investigate the complaint and prepare a report. The complaint was filed with the school district, which the law requires to provide bullying complaint forms on its websites.

The University Interscholastic League, the governing body for high school sports in Texas, only has a mercy rule for six-man football that ends a game when one team gets ahead by 45 points by halftime or later. There

is no mercy rule for 11-man football, though coaches can agree to end a game early, UIL spokeswoman Kate Hector said.

Buchanan said Tuesday he wasn’t aware of that option.

There were about 1,500 fans still in the stands at the end of the game, most of them Aledo’s, he said. About 5,000 were at the Bearcats’ stadium in Aledo at the beginning because it was a recognition night for band members’ parents. A cold front that brought rain added another reason to leave when the game started to get out of hand, Buchanan said.

While blowouts are not uncommon in Texas high school football, Aledo has racked up several of them this season, due in part to being placed in a new district that has not been as

strong in football. The Bearcats’ average victory margin in four district games is 77 points.

The UIL bases its realignment decisions on enrollment and geographic location to minimize travel time, a move aimed at reducing class absences. When Aledo was placed in a different district before last season, its travel time to the furthest location was cut from two hours to about 35 miles, Buchanan said.

“It certainly didn’t seem like they were trying to run up the score in this case,” Hector said.

Aledo Principal Dan Peterson said his report on the bullying complaint should be completed this week. It will be given to the father who filed the complaint and the staff at Western Hills.

Cardinals: Newton nets LHC championship; finish regulars season Thursday at Southeast Polk Continued from Page 1B Newton started the second set strong. Vander Pol served four straight points, two came on senior Michaela Bleeker kills. The Little Dutch answered with a four-point run.

Pella moved to a 13-11 lead.

Down 16-13, Pressgrove came up with a kill at the net to put the volleyball back in the Cardinals’ hands. Senior Bailey Beaderstadt rang up three points, one on a Ventling block.

The Cardinals tied the set up at 19-19 and took the lead again with Pressgrove serving.

Then it was back-and-forth.

Senior Amber Karsten served up the winning point, 26-24.

Beaderstadt, who sent 19of-19 at the service line for the math, served up three straight points to push the Cardinals to a 7-2 lead in the third set.

Newton maintained its lead, fending off several challenges by the Little Dutch.

Beaderstadt had another three-point run, two points came on kills by Pressgrove and Bleeker, to make it 19-15.

Realty was starting to sink in for the Cardinals.

“The seven seniors have played together for a long time.

This was our last chance, and coach’s (Florke) last chance, at a conference championship,” Beaderstadt said.

Pressgrove’s third ace serve of the match had the Cardinals one point away from the championship, 24-17.

“The seniors have been really good to work with me.

They adjust so well to how I set, which sometimes isn’t as good as I would like,” Pressgrove said.

But the Little Dutch weren’t going away quietly.

They made a defensive play to get the serve back. With senior Regan Nelson serving, Pella scored six straight points to tie the set at 24-all.

“We needed just one point.

We talked about calming

Senior Sydney Bergman and Beaderstadt were on the bench during the Pella run.

“It was tough just sitting there but unbelievable — we were one point away from conference championship,” Bergman said. “This is awesome. We grew a lot as a team this year. We just click well.”

“This team just finds a way to get it done at the end.

That’s what I like about this group,” Florke said.

Newton stopped the Pella run, leading 25-24, and Ventling, a senior who had been sidelined early in the season with an ankle injury, serving for set, match and championship point. The teams rallied a little with the volleyball then Pella hit it back over — and out.

“This is what we’ve been working toward all season.

Through all the off-sea-

son, we worked and all of it paid off for us tonight,” said Bleeker, who leads the conference in kills and racked up 13 more against Pella. “We’re a very superstitious team.

Even though we didn’t have a full day of school, nothing changed in our routine.”

Bleeker was 36-of-45 in net attacks on the night. She came up with 10 digs, plus served for four points. Pressgrove put up 24 set assists but also worked the net, 20-of-22 attacks for eight kills. Pressgrove went 13-of-13 serving with seven points, plus had eight digs.

“My heart was racing, We all were confident but nervous about tonight,” Ventling said.

“The key tonight against Pella was we picked up their tips at the net well. We played our game. This is awesome.”

Vander Pol (18-of-20) and Karsten (15-of-20) each had four kills, while Ventling and

Astrograph Thursday, October 24, 2013

Intuition kicks in on this first full day of the Scorpio sun, featuring the moon also in a water-sign element. These psychic placements deepen our knowledge of human nature and key us into the nuances and behaviors that people use to hide secrets, handle difficult feelings and smooth over personal differences.

them yourself.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Oct. 24). It’s your year to turn a mediocre situation into something truly remarkable. Group efforts are favored in November, and together you’ll make the important difference you couldn’t make alone.

Regardless of the weather in January, your heart feels like an endless stretch of sunny skies. Aquarius and Pisces people adore you.

Your lucky numbers are: 13, 6, 22, 41 and 30.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22Jan. 19). When the world shows its less than beautiful side, you may find it intolerable, but you won’t be discouraged. Instead, you’ll work to build your own beautiful world.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You may not like the way things are managed, but you know better than to log a complaint. The surest, fastest way to get things in order is to order

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22Dec. 21). The odds are in your favor, but they stop short of guaranteeing your success. Those who don’t act in accordance with their own good luck have less of a chance of success than those who act to conquer their bad luck.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Imagination is not an impediment to logical behavior. Your creativity will serve to enhance a reasonable plan or add an interesting twist to a sensible choice.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Things won’t go completely according to your script. Still, if you take the time to plan out your day, you will be glad in the end

because much of what you plot will come to fruition.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). Find out what people want before you start giving them things. If you do it the other way around, you’ll have given what’s valuable to you and you will not have solved their problem.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). It will be better to say less, especially when you’re broaching a difficult topic. You can always add more words and information later, but you can never take back what you already said.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You may feel it is your duty to do something, and yet you may not agree with the thing you must do. In this case, it’s time to change your role because you are no longer suited to it.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). One small light can be seen through miles of darkness. You’ll be that light in

someone’s dark hour today.

Don’t be surprised if this person starts to depend on you.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Be careful of how you wield that wonderful sense of humor. When you make your friends laugh, they will add you to their short list of favorite people. Can you handle the popularity?

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept.

22). Acting is not just for movie and stage stars; most people do it all the time.

You play a role at work that requires you to bring a different face to the job. The people who know you only in one context don’t know you very well.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23).

You will accept some of destiny’s dealings, but not all of them -- and that’s good. Progress is made by those who aren’t content to let the whims of fate knock them around.
