Supervisors to hear asbestos bids for former care facility

By Ty Rushing Newton Daily News

Mike Mendenhall/Daily News Gary Thompson and Lilly Springer, 6, both of Newton, select a treat Saturday at the Capitol II Theatre during the Duane and Floppy Film Festival. The event saw 97 attendees raising approximately $500 for United Way of Jasper County and the Capitol II.

Duane and Floppy festival draws young and old to Capitol II

By Mike Mendenhall Newton Daily News Nearly 100 fans took a nostalgic trip Saturday at the Capitol II Theatre in downtown Newton viewing classic clips at the “Duane and Floppy Film Festival,” paying homage to WHO-TV 13 children program icon Duane Ellet and his puppet Floppy the dog while raising funds for the United Way of Jasper County.

Newton was the fourth central Iowa stop this year for the Duane and Floppy festival, showing a 90-minute compilation of “The Floppy Show” and “Duane and Friend” which aired from 1957 to 1984. While the

iconic intro music of the kids cartoon classic Loony Tunes echoed from the theater doors, Iowa broadcast historian Jeff Stein — who host the festivals around central Iowa — said he’s happy to see that Duane and Floppy are translating to a younger generation.

“What’s especially gratifying is how many different ages are here.

When you see grandparents, parents and kids, we’re passing on something that three generations have been a part of,” Stein sad.

“It’s something that really does hold up, even though the shows been off the air for nearly 30 years.”

The former Jasper County Care Facility has set vacant since 2000, and it looks like time is now ticking on the dilapidated structure.

At Tuesday’s Jasper County Board of Supervisors meeting, the board will vote on accepting a bid to have the asbestos in the facility removed. By taking this step, the county is getting closer to its goal of demolishing the structure.

According to the agenda, two bids were submitted for the contract to remove the asbestos. Ankeny-based Rew Services Corporation placed a low bid of $29,927.

During Thursday’s Jasper County League of Womens Voters Candidates Forum, incumbent board members and candidates, Joe Brock and Dennis Carpenter, both expressed a desire to see the facility torn down.

Both men were also in support of having the

site become a potential a green space under the care of the Jasper County Conservation Office.

Jasper County Treasurer Doug Bishop is listed on the agenda for two items, including his office’s semi-annual report. The report, which covers the second half of the previous 2013-2014 fiscal year, shows the county having a little more than $38 million in expenditures and $37.8 million in revenues.

It also shows the county having a fund balance of $17 million as of June 30.

Bishop’s other item will focus on projected 2015 local options sales tax revenues for various participating local jurisdictions and school districts.

In other business, Dennis Simon, Jasper County Human Resources Director, will present the board with a proposed holiday for county employees.

School board pulls property purchase from agenda

By Ty Rushing Newton Daily News Mike Mendenhall/Daily News Iowa’s Democratic candidate for Lt. Gov. Monica Vernon visits with volunteer Cindy Pollard, of Newton and Chaz Allen Campaign District Coordinator Daniel Wasta Saturday in Newton at the Jasper County Democratic Party’s headquarters. Newton was Vernon’s first of four stops Saturday during the Iowa Democratic Party’s 99 counties in 24 hours event. Candidates and party officials split the map Saturday in a push to excite their voter base with nine days to go until Election Day. Volunteers told Vernon that there are still 1,000 absentee ballots waiting to be cast in Jasper County as of Saturday. Vernon’s visit comes on the heals of a nine-day bus tour with Gubernatorial running mate Jack Hatch (D-Des Moines). Their Republican opponents and incumbents Gov. Terry Branstad and Lt. Gov. Kim Reynolds are currently on a 12-day trip across the state. Election Day is Nov. 4.

Company garden a healthy, bountiful success

Photo Submittied Over the last three years, the “Vernon Promo Patch” garden gave The Vernon Company employees a space to garden, enjoy the outdoors and gain new friends.

By Jamee A. Pierson Newton Daily News For the past three years, employees at The Vernon Company have taken a unique approach to staying fit. The “Vernon Promo Patch” garden started as a part of the company’s Commit To Be Fit wellness initiative.

The garden is filled with fresh produce including zucchini, squash, pumpkins, radishes, onions, tomatoes, peppers and beans and is entirely maintained by a group of Vernon employees.

The volunteers are responsible for planting, mowing, weeding and harvesting the garden with the company purchasing the seeds and renting any equipment that is needed.

“I initially joined the Vernon garden club in hopes to expand my limited knowledge of gardening and to enjoy the outdoors.

What I didn’t realize was that I would also get to know my co-

workers better and develop true friendships,” Jodi Foster, garden club member said.

The garden has become a tool to grow awareness and interest in eating healthier as well as allowing employees to actively participle in growing and tending a vegetable garden. Employees use their lunch hour, and before and after work, to work in the garden often finding it therapeutic. It has also given many employees who do not have the space to do so at home an opportunity to garden.

“The benefits we have found with our garden are twofold.

First, we find that those of our employees who don’t have room for a home garden or don’t usually garden, are excited to help and are using fresher fruits and vegetables daily,” Laurie Fanning said.

“Second, is we are giving back to the community by giving some of our harvest to the Jasper County Food Pantry to give fresh fruits and vegetables to those who nor-

mally may not get them.”

The members of the gardening group get first pick to take home and enjoy, but with so much extra produce, the group donated to the Jasper County Food Pantry along with local nursing homes. The group uses a minimal amount of pesticides or fertilizers and employs a fence to keep rabbits and deer out.

A special treat for the fall season came when Paula Zickmund of Vernon Graphics hand-painted a jumbo pumpkin in a festive fall theme.

The Vernon Company Commit To Be Fit initiative has a goal of educating, encouraging and engaging employees to adopt healthier lifestyle. The program started in December 2011 with the first garden planted in the spring of 2012.

In Brief

Iowa’s unemployment rate below average DES MOINES — Iowa’s seasonally adjusted unemployment rate changed to 4.6 percent in September, a 0.1 percent increase from August. The U.S. unemployment rate dropped to 5.9 percent in September, compared to 6.1 percent in August.

“Iowa’s nonfarm employment reached an all-time high again in September,” said Teresa Wahlert, director of Iowa Workforce Development. “Global uncertainty has started to affect new orders and employment in Iowa’s manufacturing sector.

Fortunately, employment in construction, health care, and finance have been thriving and at or near record levels.”

The number of unemployed Iowans increased to 77,900 in September from 76,500 in August.

T h e current estimate is 3,000 higher than the year ago level of 74,900. T h e total number of working Iowans increased to

1,629,700 in September from 1,626,400 in August.

This figure was 3,300 higher than August and 33,000 higher than one year ago.

Iowa nonfarm employment added 1,300 jobs in September and now rests at 1,556,200 jobs. Gains in goods producing sectors were more than offset by larger-than-expected losses in private services.

Construction added the most jobs this month with 1,600 following an unexpected loss of 1,200 jobs last month.

This sector has been overwhelmingly positive throughout the year and has added jobs in five of the last six months.

Education and health services also advanced this month due primarily to the steadily increasing health care field.

Financial activities added jobs for the third consecutive month and now rest at a new alltime high of 105,000 jobs.

Burdess honored as past president of ISPA AMES — ­ Newton Police Department Lt. Rob Burdess was recognized for his service on the Iowa State Police Association Board of Directors at the 82nd Annual ISPA Conference in Ames Oct. 13 to 15. Burdess has served on the board since 2006 and held the position of President in 2012 and 2013. Burdess will now serve in an advisory capacity as a past president.

Stocks dip after oil sinks, bad news from Europe NEW YORK (AP) — Energy companies led U.S. stocks lower in early trading Monday as crude oil sank below $80 a barrel. More disappointing economic news from Europe also weighed on markets.

A report on business confidence in Germany, Europe’s largest economy, showed a sixth straight month of declines. A separate report from

the European Central Bank revealed that 13 of the region’s 130 biggest banks failed a review of their finances The Dow Jones industrial average dropped 64 points, or 0.4 percent, to 16,740 as of 9:55 a.m. on Monday.

The Standard & Poor’s 500 index slipped 12 points, or 0.6 percent, to 1,953. The Nasdaq composite declined 26 points,

or 0.6 percent, to 4,457.

Benchmark U.S. crude was down $1.38 cents to $79.63 a barrel in New York. It sank $1.08 on Friday to $81.01.

The stock market closed out its best week in nearly two years on a positive note Friday, helping the S&P 500 recover from a steep drop earlier this month. The benchmark index is now down 1 percent for Oc-

tober.

The European Central Bank said that 13 of Europe’s 130 biggest banks failed a review of their finances and need an extra 10 billion euros ($12.5 billion) to strengthen themselves. The review is meant to purge banks of bad investments to enable them to lend more. The results were initially welcomed in markets. Stocks fell only in the

Local & State News Floppy Continued from Page 1A Energy 106.7 personality and United Way chair Jamie Grout organized Saturday’s event.

Jessica Lowe is the director of the United Way of Jasper County. As the theater doors closed Saturday, Lowe said volunteers tallied 97 attendees, and the film festival had raised $485 from ticket sales. Proceeds from the sale will be split evenly between the United Way and the Capitol II. The local United Way chapter has a goal in 2014 to raise $363,000 to fund partner organization programs. But Lowe said events like the film festival not only bring in donations, but spread the work about the United Way’s activities in Jasper County.

“People are coming to see Floppy, and the residual is they’re helping out the United Way of Jasper County,” Lowe said. “It’ a great opportunity to speak about what the United Way is doing here locally, but its also a way to plug in to that fun childhood memory of Floppy. It’s a fun way to get the word out.”

Sitting on an aisle

seat waiting for the show to start were Dawn Irwin, of Marshalltown, Michelle Modlin and Mendi Gammon, both of Newton. They said as “kids of the 70s” they were avid Floppy fans.

Irwin said while on a trip to Arkansas when she was 4 years old, she didn’t understand why the WHO-TV 13 daytime favorite was not on at his usual time.

Modlin recalls making it a requirement for her grandmother and great aunt to summon her from playing outside with a phone call at 12:15 p.m. every Saturday to catch Floppy’s latest episode.

And there was also the mandatory after school dose of Floppy.

“I was a bus kid, so I knew that if I got off on the bus stop and run all the way down the street, I could see the start of Floppy. The first cartoon was always my favorite because it was newer,” Modlin said. “He was funny, and he was so sweet. He always, always loved the kids jokes. I’ve went to see him twice in studio in Des Moines as a kid. It was very fun.”

Vitamin D & Dementia Risk Researchers found an association between low vitamin D levels and the risk of developing dementia. The study tested the vitamin D blood levels of about 1,600 people over age 65 and followed up on them for about 5 ½ years. Participants who had low levels of vitamin D were 53% more likely to develop dementia, and those who were severely deficient were 125% more likely than people with normal vitamin D levels. Vitamin D can be obtained from exposure to sun, via supplements and from foods such as milk, eggs, cheese and fatty fish.

Start the Press

No sleep till Brooklyn

By Abigail Pelzer Daily News Editor

www.newtondailynews.com | Monday | Oct. 27, 2014

It’s an odd thing to have a Beastie Boys song stuck in your head as you’re grieving the loss of a friend, but I know Diane Goodlow would understand.

After all, it was our joke, and had been since my early days at the Marengo Publishing Corporation, where I first met her.

It was funny to me that a woman from Brooklyn, Iowa had never heard the hit song.

But she hadn’t, so I sang it to her. I even threw in a little air guitar.

Years later I would start calling her as I passed the Brooklyn exit on Interstate 80. It was an excuse to remind her the song exists, that it’s actually pretty good and that of course, I was thinking of my friend.

Diane worked in human re-

sources and was later named the general manager and publisher of the Marengo Publishing Corporation, where I worked as a reporter for two years.

As a recent college graduate away from home and just launching my career, I sometimes lost my way. It’s hard getting your footing when you’re young, inexperienced … and honestly, quite naive. If it weren’t for friends like Diane, I don’t know that I would have made it.

She was one of those generous souls that was always looking out for you, grounding you, lending an ear, buying a lunch or grabbing you a cold one if she noticed you were almost empty.

As Iowa Hawkeye fans

know, there are fans and then are exceptional fans. Diane fell into the exceptional category.

In her love of Hawkeye sports she again shared generously with her knowledge, her enthusiasm, her tailgating spot and sometimes with a spare ticket.

Friends like Diane end up being a part of your extended family — there for life’s events, good and bad. Most recently I saw her at my nephew’s first birthday party, and talked to her on the phone the week before the Iowa Hawkeye football season opener.

Part of the fun of a Hawkeye game has traditionally been tailgating with Diane and her crew. This year we missed her as she had booked a trip to St. Louis before checking the

football schedule. We joked about how she had committed a cardinal sin. I told her we’d just have to catch another game this year. Perhaps we still will.

I think she’d like the idea of her friends rallying around the Hawkeyes, remembering how much joy it brought her.

Diane recently met a colleague of mine at a newspaper seminar. Upon learning about their exchange, I was delighted to share a laugh about one of my oldest newspaper buddies.

My colleague told me Diane had nothing but great things to say about me.

Same here, friend.

Letters to the Editor

Digs at Chaz Allen unfounded Cindy Lindstrom Newton First let me start off by saying that I do not like all the mudslinging that goes on in the political ads. One sure way to lose votes is to put down the other candidate. That being said I want to address the ad putting down Chaz Allen. It starts saying that he created the highest taxes the city of Newton has ever seen. That is completely false. I moved here in 1987 and the taxes at that time, were the highest in the state for a town our size.

Chaz had nothing to do with it.

And Chaz can’t vote in whether to increase taxes or not. Mayors

Contributions to local campaigns revealing Roger W. Barr Jr. Newton The race for state representative in Jasper County is getting pretty interesting. Accusations of negative campaigning and of taking money from outside the district are flying around, and voters are being told that our current representative, Dan Kelley, is taking the high road in all this. I think it’s time someone set the record straight.

I looked through Mr. Kelley’s 2014 campaign contribution disclosures, and what I found there was very interesting.

First of all, only about a quarter of his contributions have come

don’t decide that or vote. This town has always catered to the Maytag upper echelon. Now we are stuck paying those exorbitant fees.

Second, Maytag didn’t PULL out. They were run into the ground, sold and forced to close their doors. This also had nothing to do with Chaz. Check out the facts. This was brought to fruition by the board of directors and their hatchet man.

And since Crystal is such an excellent job creator, why didn’t she try to keep Maytag? Where has she been for the last seven years as businesses went out and shuttered their doors? She could have run for Board of Supervisors and had ALL kind of suggestions for job creations. But

no, nothing. Chaz was instrumental in bringing in TPI and Trinity. They are excellent businesses but do not employ anywhere near the number who lost their job when Maytag closed.

So, I am certainly not telling anyone how to vote, but it seems if she is as good as she proclaims, then she should have been busy bringing new jobs into Newton. Putting someone else down, whether the reasons are true or false, is wrong. So this November, I will be casting my vote for Chaz Allen.

And you know, I haven’t heard a single bad word about Crystal from Chaz. Just goes to show you what a class act he is and why he deserves to be elected.

from within Jasper County. So it’s not as though he’s largely, or even mostly, funded from within the district. Where things get interesting is when you look at the money he has taken in from Political Action Committees (PACs). In 2014, $14,825.00, or a whopping 56% of Mr. Kelley’s campaign contributions, came from PACs! PACs are often considered to be one of the greatest scourges in American politics, and yet, over half of the money contributed to Mr. Kelley’s campaign this year is PAC money!

Comparing Mr. Kelley’s contributions with Patrick Payton’s is quite revealing. Mr. Payton has accepted no PAC money whatsoever. None. That means that 100 percent of his itemized con-

tributions have come from private citizens. As with Mr. Kelley, some of these citizens are residents of the district, and some are not. But unlike Mr. Kelley, all of Patrick Payton’s donors are personally and individually invested in Mr. Payton’s campaign, because they are personally and individually invested in a better Jasper County and a better Iowa.

So I ask… Do we want a state representative who is mostly bought and paid for by special interest groups and PACs, or do we want a state representative who is supported by everyday citizens like you and me because he is one of us? I think we all know the answer to that question. So, please join me in voting for Patrick Payton, Jasper County’s next state representative.

A group of Washington overlords — federal prosecutors — sometimes break rules and wreck p e o p l e ’s lives.

Presid e n t Obama may soon appoint one of

By John them to be Stossel America’s next Attorney General.

The prosecutorial bullying is detailed in a new book by Sidney Powell, “Licensed to Lie.” She reports that the Department of Justice’s narcissistic and dishonest prosecutors destroy people by doing things like deliberately withholding evidence.

Remember the Arthur Andersen accounting firm?

It was killed off by ambitious prosecutors who claimed the company helped Enron commit accounting fraud and then shredded the evidence.

But instead of charging people who allegedly ordered evidence destroyed, the DOJ indicted the entire company. That destroyed the accounting firm. Publicly traded companies cannot do business with companies under criminal investigation, so Andersen lost most of its clients.

The prosecutor’s purpose, says Powell, was to chill resistance from other companies that might dare fight the Feds. The message: cooperate, or we will destroy you! These pressure tactics were appropriate, said one prosecutor, because shredding documents “attacks the justice system itself by impeding investigators and regulators from getting at the truth.”

But who actually hid the truth?

The prosecutors, writes Powell. In fact, Andersen had saved most of its documents and gave them to the government.

The prosecutors simply lied to the court about it.

Eventually, the U.S. Supreme Court overturned Arthur Andersen’s conviction. But by then, 80,000 employees had lost their jobs — 80,000 people who’d done nothing wrong.

You’d think that this would teach federal pros-

ecutors to obey the law.

Paul Kamenar of the Washington Legal Foundation said, “this decision will send a strong message to the Justice Department to stop this kind of abusive prosecutorial misconduct.”

So were the prosecutors fired or jailed? No. Many were promoted.

Washington’s overlords protect their own.

Next, some of the same prosecutors accused four Merrill Lynch executives of falsifying Enron’s books. The government lawyers told the media that Enron “conspired with Wall Street bankers to carry out a sham transaction.” The Merrill Lynch executives charged with fraud got three- to four-year jail sentences.

But Powell writes that the government “failed to allege anything that actually constituted a crime by the Merrill Lynch executives. Instead it cobbled together parts of different statutes to make up some kind of new crime that didn’t even make sense.”

Sure enough, an appeals court tossed most of the verdict, and the Merrill executives were released. But that was after they had spent a year in jail.

Did the prosecutors hang their heads in shame? No. Far from it.

Some of them then went after Republican Sen. Ted Stevens of Alaska.

Stevens, the prosecutors claimed, took $250,000 in gifts from rich donors and never reported that.

But later it was revealed that the prosecutors withheld evidence that showed Stevens had not taken anything like $250,000. A judge threw out that conviction, too. But by then, Sen. Stevens had lost his Senate seat. His replacement, a Democrat, became the deciding vote for Obamacare.

So was the lead prosecutor, Matthew Friedrich, finally punished?

Again, no. He took a higher-paying job at a private law firm. Leslie Caldwell, who helped destroy Arthur Anderson, got promoted to assistant attorney general at the Justice Department. Andrew Weissmann, who helped prosecute the Andersen and the Merrill Lynch employees, was made deputy director of the FBI.

Haunted-house decor causes fright for neighborhood kids DEAR ABBY: We have a neighbor who “decorates” his yard for Halloween in the worst way imaginable. Every year it becomes more macabre. He has “bodies” hanging from tree limbs, gravestones with RIP on dirt mounds and other unbelievable atrocities. He thinks it’s funny. It is despicable and it scares the children who must walk past his yard.

When we ask him not to put such deplorable items in our neighborhood, he doesn’t take it seriously. I’m thinking about taking up a collection and bribing him not to put his growing, vulgar display up this year.

What can we do? — SPOOKED IN TOPEKA DEAR SPOOKED: What you’re describing is a feature of Halloween that many children enjoy. However, you can’t “protect” your children forever. When they’re old enough to understand, explain to them that this is all done in the spirit of fun, and it’s not real or dangerous.

DEAR ABBY: When my husband and I were 18, we decided to have each other’s initials tattooed on our ring fingers. His tattoo included the initial that one day became my last name. It’s been 10 years and our marriage is still solid and beautiful.

I have worked hard at a nursing career, but I feel self-conscious about my tattoo, although I now wear rings as well. I still like my tattoo, but I don’t want people judging me because of it. My husband says I’ll only hurt myself if I remove something I love having. Do I express my love the way I wish or succumb to nasty stares from patients?

— INKED FOR LOVE DEAR INKED FOR LOVE: I agree with your husband. You are entitled to express your love any way you wish. Many professional people

sport tattoos that are far more flamboyant than the one you have. If you catch a patient staring, smile and share the story behind it. I think it is sweet and rather charming.

DEAR ABBY: I am friends with two women who dislike each other.

Neither one has family, so I usually invite them over for holiday dinners.

Over the past 10 years they have tolerated each other and been cordial.

But this summer they had a big row, and the divide is even wider.

I love them both, but how do I now handle Thanksgiving and Christmas dinners, knowing how they feel about each other? Should I extend the usual invitation and hope for the best? Or should I not invite either of them to avoid the possible conflict?

I will not take sides. I think both of them are being petty and childish, but I also don’t know what to do. My family is quite large, and these two have always blended in nicely. — IN THE MIDDLE DEAR IN THE MIDDLE: Because you feel that having them together in the same room would cause tension for you, my advice is to have them over on alternate holidays.

MASON CITY — Two days after an Iowa fast-food worker’s bicycle was stolen from outside the Culver’s restaurant where he worked someone surprised him with a new one. Nathan King came out of the Mason City restaurant Saturday and found a new silver Schwinn hybrid bike waiting for him.

SIOUX CITY — Sioux City public school district officials are warning that if voters reject a proposed tax levy later this year, the district could be forced to ax plans to build a new elementary school.

A special election on Dec. 2 seeks a new levy to raise $45 million over 10 years to help fund several new elementary schools and renovate Sioux City’s three high schools. If passed, the levy would increase property taxes by about $70 a year for a home valued at $105,000.

NJ Gov. Christie back again in Iowa; 2016 on mind?

The Associated Press

Berg Elementary finishes ‘Great Cause Challenge’ Ty Rushing/Daily News Several Berg Elementary School staff members put on a skit for the student body on Friday to celebrate a number of things, including the school’s completion of the “The Great Cause Challenge.”The Great Cause Challenge has been taking place among Newton’s four elementary schools since the beginning of the school year, and Berg was the final participating school. Students at Berg spent all of last week acquiring donations for the Salvation Army Food Pantry in Newton and wound up with 510 items, which amounted to almost 400 pounds of food. This drive also coincided with the school’s Red Ribbon Week activities and the Newton vs. Newton food drive competition.

New Iowa clean water rule goes into effect The Associated Press DES MOINES — A new Iowa clean water rule designed to increase inspections of livestock farms and provide stricter enforcement when manure spills pollute waterways is now in effect, after more than a year of hearings and deliberations by government agencies.

The new rule, supported by farm groups, took effect Wednesday. It establishes new inspection and permit processes for livestock farms but does not impose mandatory permits for farms that repeatedly spill manure, a measure some environmental groups wanted.

The Iowa Department of Natural Resources signed a deal with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency in September 2013 to develop the new rule. They struck

the deal after the EPA threatened to take over federal Clean Water Act enforcement if the state didn’t toughen its enforcement.

The EPA investigated Iowa’s practices after three environmental groups — Iowa Citizens for Community Improvement, the Environmental Integrity Project and the Sierra Club Iowa Chapter — petitioned the EPA in September 2007 to revoke Iowa’s authority to manage livestock farms and their impact on water.

The EPA determined Iowa DNR was failing to adequately inspect farms, wasn’t levying fines for violators and wasn’t issuing permits to polluters.

The federal agency signed off on the state’s new rule, which went through public hearings, approval of the IowaEnvironmental Protection Commission

and a legislative rules committee.

Environmental groups said the new rule gives the DNR too much latitude in deciding when to issue permits, which would impose stricter guidelines on livestock operations and could force them to close if they repeatedly spill.

“We’re finding that DNR is still failing at these things today,” said Barbara Lang, a retired teacher from Des Moines and member of Iowa CCI, a citizen action environmental group.

Lang said the number of impaired lakes, rivers and streams in Iowa is increasing.

“Something is wrong here,” she said. “We now have over 20 million hogs and there’s only so much you can do with the billions of gallons of manure they produce. It’s getting into our water.”

CLIVE — New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, returning to Iowa to headline one of the biggest events on the state’s political calendar, criticized President Barack Obama in a fiery speech Saturday night that sounded like the early makings of a presidential pitch.

“America used to control events both here at home and around the world. And now it seems that our fate is being dictated to us by others,” Christie said. “It is because of the lack of leadership that we have Christie in the White House. It has been six long years, but I bring you good news: There are only two more years left,” Christie was the featured speaker at fellow GOP Gov. Terry Branstad’s birthday bash in Clive, outside Des Moines. Earlier in the day Christie attended Rep. Steve King’s annual pheasant hunt lunch in Akron, in northwest Iowa, giving him the chance to meet with Republican activists and fundraisers who could propel a potential White House bid in 2016. He skipped the hunt itself.

He began a long day in the Midwest by attending a tailgate fundraiser before the Rutgers-Nebraska football game in Lincoln, Nebraska, a guest of GOP gubernatorial nominee Pete Ricketts.

Christie’s speech Saturday night was meant to boost Iowa’s Republican ticket, including Branstad, who is on track to become the nation’s longestserving governor. But he spent the bulk of his time on stage painting the picture of a country hungry for leadership and a world adrift, with a feckless White House to blame.

The visit, about a week before the midterm elections, was Christie’s third in recent times to the state, and yet again stoked speculation that he is laying the groundwork for a presidential run. Indeed, Christie, who serves as chair of the Republican Governors Association, announced during his speech that he’ll be back in Iowa once against on Thursday — despite Branstad’s double-digit lead in recent polls.

While the state’s Republican voters are generally seen as more conservative than Christie’s natural base and his support among a wide-open field lags in early polling among likely GOP caucus-goers, Christie has forged strong ties with some important Iowa operatives who have made it clear they would jump to help if he decided to run.

Dear Representative Kelley, On behalf of the entire Iowa Speedway family, I want to personally thank you for your outstanding support of the Iowa Speedway and our collective efforts to bring high quality entertainment and economic growth to the Newton area.

During the most recently concluded session of the Iowa General Assembly, you provided valuable support for our efforts to extend the sales tax rebate for another 10 years. This was our number one 2014 legislative priority, and you were an effective advocate for the incentive, which will spur greater economic growth in Newton.

The upcoming 2015 session of the Iowa General Assembly will bring new opportunities for additional partnerships between the state of Iowa and the Iowa Speedway as we work to take this facility to even greater heights. I know we will be able to count on you to help lead that effort.

Once again, thank you for your history of support for the track and your advocacy on behalf of the entire Newton area. We are proud to be part of the Newton family and for the opportunity to work with you on the important issues facing our facility and industry.

Sincerely, Jimmy Small President, Iowa Speedway

Cardinals rout Cubs, advance to 3A playoffs

By Jocelyn Sheets Newton Daily News

Jocelyn Sheets/Daily News Newton High seniors Brett Wolf (44) and Michael Barr celebrate following Barr’s scoop and score of a Nevada fumbled punt snap in Friday night’s regular-season finale in Nevada. The Cardinals overpowered the Cubs, 56-30, earning a spot in the Class 3A playoffs this week.

NEVADA — Newton High’s Cardinals did the work they needed to do Friday night. They overpowered host Nevada, 56-30.

The Cardinals are happy that Ballard got the job done on the road in Class 3A District 6 play. The Bombers’ 31-28 overtime win against Grinnell clinched a playoff berth for Newton.

“We’re in!” shouted NHS senior quarterback Tyler Wood, as the team headed off the Nevada football field into the fog.

“This is great. We went (to the playoffs) our sophomore year, but to go as seniors, it’s an unbelievable feeling,” said senior defensive back Jeff Stanton.

“We’ve worked hard as a team all season and this is tremendous to get this win and find out we got into the playoffs.”

In they are for the first time since 2012. The Cardinals found out early Saturday morning they travel to Amana to play Clear Creek at 7 p.m.

“I’m really happy for all of the seniors.

This group of kids have been so much fun to be around and to coach,” said Ed Ergenbright, Newton head coach. “Until right at the end of our game, it looked like maybe we might not make it into the playoffs. I’m glad we did and glad we went out and won this game like we did.

We get to keep playing and see what we can do in the playoffs.”

Newton volleyball opens 4A regional play Monday

By Jocelyn Sheets Newton Daily News

Jocelyn Sheets/Daily News Newton High’s sophomore Ryanne Rausch hits the ball at the net. The Cardinals open Class 4A regional play Monday at Oskaloosa.

No excuses. Just play.

That’s what Newton High sophomore Ryanne Rausch talked about as the Cardinals head into Class 4A Region 4 tournament play Monday. The Cardinals, who only have one senior on the team this season, move into the playoffs against Little Hawkeye Conference foe Oskaloosa.

“We can’t use the excuse we’re young any more,”

Rausch said. “Coach (Laura Rowen) is right on that. We have a full regular season under our belts.

We know we have to play better volleyball.”

The Cardinals (7-28) go to Oskaloosa (12-23) Monday for a 7 p.m. match.

“We’ve played Oskaloosa twice this season and lost both times, but we had opportunities in both matches to win a set and didn’t do it,” said Laura VOLLEYBALL | 3B

back Chase Dodson had the Cardinals chasing him. Dodson capped a threeplay drive with a 32-yard touchdown run. The Cubs led the Cardinals 7-0 at the 10:45 mark of the first quarter.

“We had trouble lining up defensively on that first drive. Our coaches did a great job of making adjustments to put us in the right spots after that,” said Brett Wolf, senior linebacker. “To get to the playoffs in our senior season is awesome. We’re just going to continue to work hard and play hard.”

Newton made the adjustments defensively to shut down the running game, which is Dodson, the rest of the first half. In the meantime, the Cardinals did all the running, piling up 340 yards on the ground and scoring 49 unanswered points in the first half.

But it was the defense that evened the score early. The Cubs were forced to punt deep in their own territory.

The snap sailed over the Nevada punter’s head. In the scramble for the football, Newton senior linebacker Michael Barr scooped it up and scored the touchdown from three yards out.

“I was proud of the way the guys responded to that first drive by Nevada.

They just answered and answered again and answered again,” Ergenbright said. “It became obvious that we were a lot better of a team than they were. Nevada battled, but did not have the players to match up with us.”

Senior Nick Easley’s kick made it 7-7 with 8:08 on the clock. By the 2:48 mark of the period, the Cardinals’ lead was 28-7.

Bumgarner, Giants blank Royals for 3-2 Series lead SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — With every pitch, Madison Bumgarner etched his place among the World Series greats.

The long, tall lefty kept slinging away and put the San Francisco Giants just one win from yet another championship, throwing a four-hitter to beat the Kansas City Royals 5-0 Sunday night for a 3-2 Series edge.

Hardly menacing on the mound, Bumgarner was simply untouchable — again — as “MVP! MVP!” chants

broke out in the late innings.

And by the time the 25-year-old from Hickory, N.C., closed out his second win in a week, he had evoked memories of Bob Gibson, Sandy Koufax, Curt Schilling and the top October aces of all-time.

Raiders finish regular season undefeated

By Jocelyn Sheets Newton Daily News MAXWELL — Collins-Maxwell/ Baxter’s Raiders made history under the Friday Night Lights.

The sixth-ranked Raiders recorded the first-ever undefeated regular season in the team’s history with its 37-0 win over Centerville’s Big Reds Friday at home. The Raiders had already clinched the Class 2A District 7 championship and a playoff berth.

Going 9-0 for the regular season is great but the work isn’t done for the Raiders. They host South Hardin in a Class 2A first-round game Wednesday. Kickoff is 7 p.m.

“I think it starts with our seniors. It starts with their non-selfish attitude,” said Rob Luther, CMB head coach, about the success of the Raiders this season.

“Like I said earlier we never had the disease of ‘me.’ We talked about being humble. It doesn’t matter who gets the next win, we’re going to play hard. We have great leaders. I’m really happy for our seniors and I’m really happy for all these kids who have done something that has never been done before.”

Senior Bryce Kemp got CMB rolling quick with an 88-yard kickoff return for a touchdown. Kemp, who made six catches for 113 yards, had a 22-yard touchdown pass from sophomore quarterback Hunter McWhirter later in the game.

McWhiter was 13-of-20 passing for 186 yards and tossed his first touchdown of the night to Hunter Gunderson. Gunderson’s 10-yard touchdown

St. Louis Cardinal baseball player dies SANTO DOMINGO, Dominican Republic (AP) — Oscar Taveras, the St. Louis Cardinals’ outfielder regarded as one of the majors’ top prospects, died Sunday in a car accident in his native Dominican Republic. He was 22.

Taveras was driving a 2014 Chevrolet Camaro at the time of the crash on a highway between the beaches of Sosua and Cabarete in Puerto Plata, about 215 miles north of the capital of Santo Domingo, said Col. Diego Pesqueira of the Metropolitan Transportation Agency.

catch and Joey Nissen’s extra-point kick had CMB up 14-0 at the break.

“The first half wasn’t our strongest. It might of actually been one of our worst starts of the season. With the halftime break, we got our stuff together. We basically gave it our all, got inspired, pumped up and did what we could to get more points on the board,” senior Jon Engle said. “I’ve never been in the playoffs in my four years. I’ve watched a few. It’s just a gi-

ant thing of emotions and feelings. It just feels awesome.”

CMB’s defense opened the second-half scoring with a safety for two points. Kemp caught a touchdown pass from McWhirter to push the Raider lead to 24-0.

The Raiders piled up 534 yards of total offense while holding Centerville to just 82 yards of offense.

Blake Coughenour, who had 70 yards on 13 carries, had a 1-yard touch-

down run in the second half. Clayton Weltha, a senior lineman, lined up in the backfield and bulled over the goal line from one yard out for the final touchdown. Nissen kicked all the extra points for the Raiders.

“We needed that (a better second half of play). I don’t know if the win/ loss was ever in doubt, but we didn’t want to limp into the playoffs. We didn’t want to look sloppy. So we really had a discussion at half and said let’s play a really good two quarters so we feel good about ourselves going into Wednesday,” Luther said.

Weltha had eight solo tackles and one assisted tackle to lead the Raider defense. Kemp had five solo tackles and a quarterback sack. Engle had a quarterback sack. Nick Littell recorded three unassisted tackles and two assisted tackles. Brady Stover had three solo stops.

Senior Mac Pohlman came up with the two turnovers for the game. He intercepted a pass and recovered a fumble for the Raiders.

“It feels good to be able to help the defense out, and get the offense on the field in a hurry to do what they need to do. My teammates kind of helped me out, put me where I need to be today,” Pohlman said.

“Home field advantage is going to be a big thing. We just need to work on fundamentals. We can’t have a first half like that. We need to play a whole game like our second half where we came out and dominated.”

four rushing touchdowns.”

Myers led the charge for the Tigerhawks, completed 18of-29 passes for 373 yards and three touchdowns. Myers also rushed for 38 yards and one touchdown. Myers has passed for 2,411 yards in the regular season on 159 completes in 294 pass attempts.

Lietz said the Tigerhawks got a defensive stop on the first possession of the game, then went to work offensively.

Jake Buehrer punched through to the end zone on a 6-yard run. The Tigerhawks led 21-0 at the end of the first quarter.

Colfax-Mingo scored on a 1-yard quarterback keeper by

Myers in the second quarter. A 6-yard run by Jake Lietz and Brady DeJoode’s extra-point kick pushed the Tigerhawk led to 35-0 by halftime.

Lietz takes on a 10-yard scoring run in the third quarter.

Colin Lourens hauled in a 5-yard scoring pass from Myers. DeJoode kicked seven extra points.

“It was good to have Jake (Lietz) back tonight. He had a strong game on both sides of the football,” Lietz said. “We’re really happy for these kids to get into the playoffs. We know its a challenge for us, going on the road against No. 1 seed from another district. We’ll just keep playing and see what happens.”

Senior running back Clayton Brown paced the running attack for the Tigerhawks with

74 yards on 11 carries. Buehrer had 30 yards on four carries and three catches for 44 yards.

Lietz had three carries for 20 yards.

By Jocelyn Sheets Newton Daily News ALLEMAN — Prairie City-Monroe’s Mustangs are in the Class 2A playoffs, but after losing to North Polk 42-20 Friday night the Mustangs will be a No. 4 seed.

Lynnville-Sully concludes season on winning note

By Jocelyn Sheets Newton Daily News BELLE PLAINE — “Our kids went out the right way tonight,” said Mike Parkinson, Lynnville-Sully head coach. “We went out and controlled the game from the opening kickoff. This was a huge win for us.”

Going into the Class A District 7 game, the Hawks had a chance to get into the playoffs. Things had to fall right in other district contests, but they had to win. They upended Belle Plaine, which was 4-2 in district play, 36-6.

Lynnville-Sully (4-5), Belle Plaine and Colfax-Mingo all tied in district games, 4-3. The tiebreaks went against the Hawks.

“We could’t worry about that tonight. It was about finishing the right way no matter what,” Parkinson said.

On the first possession of the game, Kobe Fisk intercepted a Belle Plaine pass and returned it 48 yards to the Plainsmen’s HAWKS | 3B

Sports Volleyball Continued from Page 1B Rowen, NHS head coach. “We stressed to the girls that the being young excuse isn’t in play anymore. They need to step up and play.”

Oskaloosa’s Indians defeated the Cardinals, 21-18, 22-20, in Newton’s early-bird tournament in late August.

Newton came up short again when Oskaloosa played on the Cardinals’ court on Oct. 7 with the Indians winning 25-15, 25-18, 25-12.

“But it’s tournament time and I told the girls, tournament time means it’s a fresh slate. Anything can happen in the regional tournament,” Rowen said. “It comes down to finding that competitive drive.

“I stepped in and played during practice this week because we were short a player. The

The Plainsmen answered with a touchdown. The Hawks denied the two-point conversion attempt.

Lynnville-Sully’s defense shut the Plainsmen out the rest of the game.

“This was a great team win. The guys took it over and we ran the ball so effectively,” Parkinson said. “Offensively, we took care of the football with no turnovers for the first time all season. Our defense played lights out against a good ball team on the road. We made two interceptions.”

Ehresman added touchdown runs of one yard and three yards in the second quarter and another two-point conversion. Noah Engle kicked an extra point and a 30-yard field goal to give the Hawks a 26-6 halftime lead.

Ehresman rushed for 210 yards on 24 carries.

That pushed his season total to 1,047 yards on 127 carries. He also finished with 14 rushing touchdowns. The run that put him over the mark was for 56 yards and a touchdown in the third quarter.

girls wanted to know why I was mad. I was losing at the time and I don’t like to lose. I’m that competitive. I want the girls to develop that drive.”

Rausch said the Newton players realize they have to play harder as individuals and as a team.

“We get back to practice this week and take how we practice to the court in a match,” Rausch said.

Rowen said the coaches are stumped with the fact that the Cardinals practice hard and “look great, then step on the court for a match and it appears they forget all we worked on. They also know that everyone has to be ready to go in and play. Our lineups will change from set to set.”

earlier in the third period. He kicked the extra point for the final margin.

Senior Noah Zylstra, a converted lineman to fullback, rushed for 77 yards on 14 carries in his final high school game.

Caleb James, a senior, ran for 25 yards on six carries.

Zylstra also led the Hawk defense with seven unassisted tackles and three assisted tackles. Ehresman made seven solo stops and one assisted tackle and had an interception. Fisk had four solo tackles and an interception.

Senior Baker Zegers was credited with four solo stops and two assisted tackles. Engle posted two unassisted tackles and three assisted tackles. Kyle Van Dyke had a quarterback sack.

“After losing our first four games of the season, the kids could have folded but they believed in themselves and what we were doing here,” Parkinson said. “As coaches we’re very proud of these kids. We’re happy we were able to send our seniors out with a win.”

Parkinson said finishing the season on threegame winning streak helps build momentum for the underclassmen to work with in the offseason. He said the Hawks have a lot of potential going into next year.

World Series: Teams return to Kansas City Continued from Page 1B Joined them, and maybe even passed them.

Who else has gone 4-0 in four World Series starts with an 0.29 ERA? Throw in only 12 hits in 31 innings, along with 27 strikeouts, and that adds up to the very definition of Big-Game Pitcher.

On this evening, he fanned eight without a walk and never was in trouble, becoming the first pitcher to toss a World Series shutout since Josh Beckett’s clinching gem for the Florida Marlins in 2003 at Yankee Stadium.

The Giants’ work isn’t done yet. To lock up their third crown in five years, they’ll need to win in Kansas City.

Jake Peavy gets the first chance to seal it for San Francisco when he starts Game 6 at Kauffman Stadium on Tuesday night against rookie Yordano Ventura.

If the Giants don’t win then, there was always this possibility: Bumgarner out of the bullpen in Game 7.

Hunter Pence once again was in the middle of things for Giants. He singled off James Shields in the second and scored on a groundout by Brandon Crawford, who finished with three RBIs. Later, the enigmatic Pence accidentally threw his bat past the mound while striking out, and seemed to apologize to Shields.

Pence added another hit in a three-run eighth, making him 9 for 19 in the five games.

Postseason star Pablo Sandoval also singled twice. Juan

Perez broke it open with a tworun double off the top of the center-field fence in the eighth off Wade Davis and scored on a single by Crawford.

Since trailing 4-1 in Game 4, the Giants have responded with 15 straight runs. San Francisco won that game, putting aside concern that Bumgarner should’ve been moved up to pitch on short rest.

Bumgarner won for the fourth time in this postseason, and this blanking bookended the four-hit shutout he threw at Pittsburgh in the NL wild-card game. Durable, he’s thrown 47 2/3 innings this October, trailing just Schilling’s 48 1-3 in 2001 for the most in a single postseason.

Given an early lead, Bumgarner was in control. He surely didn’t need much of a cushion, and looked even better than he did in winning the opener in Kansas City.

And on the rare occasion when the 6-foot-5 Bumgarner made a mistake, failing to cover first base on a grounder to the right side, his defense bailed him out.

Toward the late innings, it appeared that only a lightning strike could rescue the Royals, perhaps a home run out of nowhere. Not happening — this was the third straight game without either team hitting a homer, the longest streak in the World Series since 1948 when the Boston Braves and Cleveland began with a three-game drought, STATS said.

Exactly why the man nicknamed MadBum is so dominant isn’t easily apparent. Royals cleanup man Eric Hosmer said

before the game that Bumgarner’s “cross-body” delivery is tough to pick up.

Bumgarner definitely has an impressive whip, along with an imposing WHIP in the World Series. His walks-plus-hits ratio per inning is incredible.

Bumgarner certainly excels at keeping hitters swinging at shadows by changing speeds.

Kansas City batters chased balls that bounced as well as high ones out of the strike zone.

After Salvador Perez led off the second with a single — he homered in Game 1 for the lone run off Bumgarner — the slowwalking lefty who never seems to be in a hurry made quick work of the Royals.

Bumgarner struck out the next three batters, all swinging.

He was at his best against pesky Omar Infante on three pitches: a 76 mph curve, a fastball at 91 and a slider at 86.

About the only thing Bumgarner didn’t do was get a hit. He takes pride in his plate prowess and launched four home runs this season, including two grand slams. Bumgarner went 0 for 4, leaving him hitless in 22 postseason at-bats.

Yep, he’s still got some work to do.

UP NEXT Royals: Ventura will become the fourth rookie to start twice in a Series since 2000, joining John Lackey, Justin Verlander and Michael Wacha.

Giants: Peavy started in the World Series last year for the champion Boston Red Sox. He took the loss last week in Game 2, and is 1-4 with a 7.05 ERA in eight career postseason starts.

Earnhardt wins at Martinsville Speedway MARTINSVILLE, Va. (AP) — Dale Earnhardt Jr. earned his fourth win of the season on Sunday at Martinsville Speedway in an emotional victory a week after he was eliminated from the Chase for the Sprint Cup championship.

Jeff Gordon was second, giving Hendrick Motorsports a 1-2 finish on the 10-year anniversary weekend of the fatal plane crash that killed owner Rick Hendrick’s son and nine others aboard.

“This means so much to all of us,” Earnhardt said. “I lost my daddy a long time ago and I know how hard that is. I can’t imagine losing the amount of people Rick lost. My heart goes out to him during this weekend.

This honors them.”

Gordon was the highest finishing Chase driver. Without a Chase driver in Victory Lane, no driver clinched an automatic berth in the championship finale at Homestead.

“That means so much to Hendrick Motorsports,” Gordon said. “That’s the best way you can possibly pay tribute to those that we lost 10 years ago.

To have a 1-2 finish, that’s pretty awesome. I would have loved to have gotten that win to move on

to Homestead, but this is certainly a great start for us.”

Chase driver Ryan Newman was third, and Tony Stewart finished fourth. Chase drivers Joey Logano and Matt Kenseth were fifth and sixth.

Running fifth, Stewart gambled and stayed on the track after the race was red-flagged with 10 laps left. Earnhardt and Gordon pitted for fresh tires, and that one final stop was just

enough for the successful finish.

“If we had to do that 100 times over, we’d do the same thing,” Stewart said. “We didn’t have anything to lose. It was worth the gamble.”

Other Chase driver results included: Denny Hamlin eighth, Carl Edwards 20th, Brad Keselowski 31st and Kevin Harvick 33rd.

Earnhardt got the win he needed a week late and is simply running for trophies down the stretch instead of a championship.

“We tried to win here so many years,” he said. “This place is so special to me. I wanted to win here so bad. We’ve brought some good cars.”

Keselowski was in the hunt until he lost the transmission in the No. 2, causing a multicar crash that involved Edwards with 64 laps left and forced a red flag.

The race had its usual dose of revenge as Vickers and Kahne took turns retaliating against each other until NASCAR told them to knock it off.

The warning came after Kahne had spun Vickers, who then told his crew: “Alright, we owe him another. We can do this all day long.”

Neptune is the higher octave of Venus, and these two prove the point today as they sing together across the universe. The musical score is brought by way of trine — planets at a 120-degree angle from one another — and it’s a most pleasant way to start the week. The beauty of the season will strike a chord on levels both superficial and deep.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Oct. 27). You’re growing a strong competitive nature that you will apply to making headway in a cutthroat environment. By February, you’ll have the position you want. Your personal life is much more tender, and love will be a process of letting go of the need to control things.

You’ll have excellent financial luck in April and June. Sagittarius and Aquarius people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 21, 4, 37, 49 and 31.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Of course you prize people over environments — although today you’ll find that a lovely

environment is more conducive to your happiness than most people.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You’d rather act in good conscience than do what is likely to earn you a good reputation. Today, happily, the same action will serve both categories.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). A change is coming for your financial scene.

Your wealth will increase as your appetites decrease. When you don’t want much, you can be rich with very little.

today’s small print, read it. There is good reason.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). Laughter provides chemicals for the brain that help you better handle the stressors of this hectic day. Consider taking a laughing break while the rest take smoking and/or coffee breaks.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Your strength lies in your determination.

Because you’re willing to hit the same job again and again and again from different angles, you’ll break on through to the other side.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20Feb. 18). There’s something in you that says you can do it. There’s also something in you that says you can’t.

Which voice is speaking the truth? Whichever voice you listen to.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). No one knows what the animals think about, but fantasy and nonsense are necessary ingredients to human life. So when you “indulge” in a bit of that today, maybe it’s not really an indulgence at all.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You’ve agreed to the terms and conditions of many a website arrangement without reading the small print — who has time for all that? As for

CANCER (June 22July 22). Your emotional guidance system is plugged in and ready to navigate. Beware that it may take you on a few detours, and you can bet

these will wind up being shortcuts compared to the logical or usual route.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22).

Successful people are not impervious to rejection, pain and negativity; they are just good at handling it and moving on. It’s a skill you only learn with experience.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept.

22). Someone suggested that in every fat book there is a thin book trying to get out. You’ll appreciate brevity in whatever form it comes today — it’s refreshing, smart and respectful of your precious time.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Today will feel like you’re both in the game and watching it simultaneously. If you wind up disappointing yourself in one way or another, the thing to do is to hop right back onto your own side and start cheering.

NCMP Continued from Page 1B In the 11-dive event, Eide came in fourth with 396.85 points. NCMP head coach Sarah Patterson said Eide was five points away from the NCMP school record in diving.

“We haven’t had the diving points the previous two years and it was great to have a solid start to the conference meet with Morgann’s performance,” Patterson said. “She’s a freshman and really hasn’t had that much board time this year. We’re fortunate to have Kelly Rose of Grinnell as our dive coach this season.”

In the pool Saturday afternoon, the Aquagirls won eight of 10 events. They had five individual champions and sweeping the three relays with 1-2 finishes.

NCMP opened the swimming with its third straight win in the 200 freestyle relay in conference action. Juniors Sydney Jenkins and Hannah Rhoads combined with senior Hannah Scotton and junior Samantha Hedrick to shave off two seconds from the NCMP school record time in the event. The foursome posted a time of 2 minutes, 6.82 seconds. The old record was 2:08.42 set by Sydney Griffith, Ellen Colville, Scotton and Carly Colville in 2011.

“Going after the relay records was a goal for us at conference,” said Hedrick, who anchored the 200 medley, the 200 freestyle and the 400 freestyle relays to school records and lowered her own 100-meter freestyle school time. “We just push each other to go out strong and stay strong. I was confident in the team to go after the times we wanted.”

NCMP’s B relay team of senior Kira Hanson, junior Sierra Griffith, senior Sara Martin and freshman Alexis Stout took the secondplace medal in the 200-meter freestyle relay race.

That set the tone for the meet.

Jocelyn Sheets/Daily News NCMP’s trio of breaststroke swimmers — Hannah Rhoads, Sara Martin, Sierria Griffith — stand atop the podium at Satuday’s NCIC meet sweeping the medals.

Freshman Madeline Webb led a 1-2-4 the 200 freestyle race, out touching teammate Rachel Prendergast, 2:22.10 and 2:22.39, respectively. Junior Elizabeth Myers was fourth.

“It’s something I’ve wanted and it was super cool to win a conference title as a freshman,” Webb said. “It was awesome today with the excitement and energy in the room and be on conference championship my first year in high school.”

Rhoads won the 200 individual medley relay race in 2:36.66. Toward the end of the meet, Rhoads was involved in a big race for NCMP — the 100 breaststroke.

Patterson said the three NCMP breaststroke swimmers wanted to go 1-2-3 again.

She said she honestly didn’t know who was going to win it, since each one has beaten the others in races this season.

Martin, Rhoads and Griffith had swept the 100 breaststroke conference med-

Cardinals Continued from Page 1B Tristan Peters and Deonne Harris ripped off runs of 29 yards and 28 yards to put the Cardinals in the end zone. Harris rushed of 112 yards on nine carries on the night and scored three touchdowns.

Easley set a Newton school record for most kickoff touchbacks in a single game. He had seven touchbacks, which meant the Cubs started drives at their own 20-yard line each time.

It was three plays and punt for the Cubs after the Cardinal touchdown.

Newton had a short field — 32 yards — to navigate and they did so in two plays again. Harris gashed the Cub defense for 22 yards and Wood scored the first of his three touchdowns in the game.

Dodson fumbled the ball on the ensuing kickoff with Newton’s senior Mason Bowes recovering the ball at the Cardinal 19. Four plays later, Wood scored on a 3-yard run.

Just before the end of the first quarter, a long touchdown pass from Wood to Easley was called back because of

als a year ago. The trio — nicknamed BT3 by the team — didn’t disappoint the home fans. It was a finger-tip finish led by Martin in 1:22.03 then Rhoads at 1:22.41 and Griffith at 1:22.57.

“It was so exciting and I’m happy we could sweep the race again together,” Martin said. “The whole meet was amazing for our team. Our goal in the relays was to get first and go after the records and we did that.”

Rhoads said BT3 push each other with friendly competition in practices and in meets. She said the three are happy for the others and it didn’t matter who won.

“Today’s meet just shows how much work we’ve put in as a team,” Rhoads said “The IM is a tough race and I’m fortunate to have the support of my teammates. I just go out strong and finish strong. It’s about swimming your own race.”

Scotton pushed herself to

penalty on the Cardinals. Another long run to the end zone by Harris was wiped out by another penalty during a drive to open the second period.

Harris did find the end zone two plays later on a 22-yard dash through the fog. Easley’s kick made it 35-7 with 5:02 left in the second quarter.

Nevada fumbled the ensuing kickoff and Stanton recovered the football at the Cub 33. Peters got loose for 17 yards and Harris capped the drive with a 16-yard touchdown run.

After two negative-yardage plays, the Cubs fumbled the ball again. This time Reese Rosenquist made the dive for the football and came up with it for Newton. The Cardinal offense took over on the Cub 9-yard line. Wood ran right up the middle for the touchdown.

Nevada had to punt again but Peters fumbled the football and the Cubs recovered. Nevada’s Jake Kapustka kicked a 28-yard field goal with 7.8 seconds left in the first half to make it 49-10.

“This wasn’t the best game for me, but it’s great that I get to come back out and play a better game next week in the playoffs,” Peters said. “Going to the playoffs as a senior is the best feeling. We’ll work hard to get another

have a strong race in the 100 butterfly event. She did, winning in 1:06.62 with Martin in second at 1:11.08. Scotton was close to her own school record, 1:06.18, in the event.

“I knew I had to take it out strong and I’ve been working on staying strong through the race. It was a good race and I felt strong. I didn’t tighten up, so I was happy with it today,” Scotton said. “The relays mean a lot to us as a team. We work hard and hasn’t been one practice that anyone was slacking off. It shows how people care about the team.

“Being conference team champions for the third year in a row is awesome.”

Martin, Scotton, Miller and Hedrick won the 200 freestyle relay race in a school record time of 1:53.44. They smashed the old mark of 1:55.28 set last year by Carly Colville, Martin, Scotton and Hedrick. The foursome of Webb, Stout, Rhoads and R. Prendergast was second in 1:58.40.

Jenkins finished second in the 50-meter freestyle in 29.40 seconds and second in the 100 backstroke in 1:12.70.

Sophomore Sarah Prendergast was third in the 400 freestyle race in 5:09.54 followed by Hanson in fourth in 5:10.65 and Myers in fifth in 5:14.31.

With the conference championship wrapped up, the Aquagirls lined up for the final event of the afternoon — the 400 freestyle relay.

Scotton, R. Prendergast, Jenkins and Hedrick were out to break their own school record of 4:11.58 set on Sept. 11.

They did, bringing it home in 4:10.70 for the victory and the record.

“It was a goal for us to sweep the relays and get the school records,” Jenkins said.

“I felt good all day and it’s great to repeat as champions.

Yes, I believe we are ready for next week (regionals). We’re excited about tapering this week and getting after it at regionals.”

NCMP’s B relay of Webb,

win and continue in the playoffs.”

The second half began with a running-clock under the 35-point lead rule.

Duncan Lee forced a fumble by Nevada quarterback Traye Pelzer and Lee recovered the football with 5:30 left in the third quarter. Newton began substituting reverse players on both sides of the football after halftime.

At the end of the third quarter, Dodson had a long run then a 14-yard touchdown run. It was 49-16 heading into the final quarter and stopped the running clock.

With 6:09 remaining in the game, Nevada’s Peyton Sharp scored on a 31-yard run.

Newton’s starting offense went back on the field, putting together a 10-play, 67-yard scoring drive. Junior Joseph Banfield scored the touchdown from three yards out with 1:28 left on the clock. Josh Gulling kicked the extra point for a 56-23 lead.

Sharp broke off a 65-yard touchdown run with 29 seconds remaining.

Rosenquist was credited with four unassisted tackles, three assisted tackles, a quarterback sack and a fumble recovery for the Cardinal defense.

Junior Bryce Tish made three solos

S. Prendergast, Myers and Miller was second in 4:23.76.

“It was a fun meet. We had the girls fired up to dominate with good sportsmanship and go after that third straight conference championship,” Patterson said. “We took second to Boone last year in the 400 freestyle relay so it was awesome they way our girls go after that win and the record.”

Patterson said Eide will compete in the regional diving competition Thursday at Southeast Polk. NCMP has 14 swimmers competing in the regional swim meet at Indianola on Saturday.

Following the conference meet, NCMP honored the eight seniors — Hanson, McKenna Heisdorffer, Abby Jolivette, Martin, Prendergast, Scotton, Olivia Maharry and Anna Barr — and their parents.
