IUB pipeline hearing brings vocal opponents

Colfax couple rekindles love, marries after 64 years apart

Outside union reps, locals argue for Iowa ‘brothers and sisters’

By Mike Mendenhall Newton Daily News BOONE — Chants of “No Bakken” and applause, hoots and hollers from labor union members intermittently filled the small hall at the Boone County Fairgrounds Thursday as the Iowa Utilities Board held its first day of hearings to decide the fate of the proposed Bakken Oil Pipeline.

But decorum held among the roughly 200 spectators during the IUB hearing, which will determine if Dakota Access, LLC will be granted the use of eminent domain to obtain land for the pipeline from nay-saying landowners.

Dakota Access — a subsidiary of Dallas-based Energy Transfer Partners — filed a petition with the IUB in January asking for the three-member panel’s authorization to construct a 343.43 mile segment of the crude oil pipeline through 18 Iowa counties.

The pipeline would carry 570,000 barrels of PIPELINE | 7A

OLFAX — Bill Brown and Marilyn DotyBrown’s relationship began as a summer romance 67 years ago as teens in Colfax and Mingo. Saturday, the couple finally said “I do” after decades apart in a wedding held where their courtship was rekindled, at the Church of the Immaculate Conception of Colfax.

In front of a full sanctuary of family members and friends, Bill, 85, walked Marilyn, 81, down the aisle, and they took their sacred vows and exchanged rings.

The wedding was followed by a reception at the Jasper County Fairgrounds 4-H building, with barbecue by a family friend’s busi-

ness, Smokin’ J’s BBQ along with a four-tier, multi-flavored cake. The entire affair was planned and designed by Bill and Marilyn’s children, grandchildren, great-grandchildren, nieces, nephews, brothers and sisters. The Colfax Catholic Church’s Deacon Joe Dvorak said Bill and Marilyn have the honor of being the oldest couple he’s married.

“We were surprised. It was fantastic because, we had 190 sign the guest book and had quite a few who didn’t sign. So we had over 200 people there,” Bill said.

Their road to reunion some might consider storybook, or as Marilyn puts it “fairytale.”

The couple met in 1947, Marilyn living in Mingo and Bill six miles down the highway in Colfax.

Bill had a summer and after school

job at his family’s Colfax business Brownie’s Cafe. The following year, the 14-year-old Marilyn was staying with her uncle in Colfax to spend time with her niece who was close in age. It was then that Marilyn said she and Bill “began to see each other quite a little bit.” He didn’t have a car so after Marilyn returned to Mingo, the 17-yearold Bill would walk the 6-mile road to see his girlfriend.

When the summer ended, the teenage couple parted ways and would not see each other again for 63 years. Bill and Marilyn moved on and built their lives. Bill and his brother Don managed the Skelly Gas Station on old Highway 6 in Colfax for a few years before he went to work in the parts division BROWNS | 3A

Mike Mendenhall/Daily News A member of the activist group Iowa Citizens for Community Improvement waits to testify Thursday during the Iowa Utilities Board Bakken Pipeline public hearing at the Boone County Fairgrounds. Approximately 280 supporters and detractors of the private crude oil pipeline project testified as part of the IUB’s consideration of the project proposed by Dakota Access, LLC — a subsidiary of Texas-based Energy Transfer Partners.

Basics & Beyond enrollment down by 21 students

By Jason W. Brooks Newton Daily News Any new arrangement might take some time to perfect. While the Newton Community School District’s arrangement with DMACC’s Gateway to College program seems to have numerous benefits, there have been some numbers and details to work out as the working arrangement goes through its first school year.

Gateway to College is a DMACC program that allows students who have exhausted other routes to a diploma or equivalent within their public school districts, but nothing seems to be working. The dual-enrollment program allows students to remain in it until age 21, as long

as they stick with it, and allows students to pursue a regular high school diploma while earning DMACC credits at the same time.

However, a decrease this fall in the enrollment in Newton’s Basics & Beyond program has prompted discussions about costs, impacts on regular school-district enrollment and how can the district keep finances and practicality in mind while still encouraging young people to pursue diplomas and other educational achievements.

Basics & Beyond is down to 44 students, compared to 54 for the same time period a year ago. The enrollment was as high as 64 later in the 2014-15 school year, and this is a typical rise of en-

rollment at Basics as the school year goes along.

Bill Peters, by virtue of being the principal of Newton High School, has more impact than most other Newton administrators. Students can only enroll in the Gateway to College program is they are recommended to DMACC by their district, so Peters and other NCSD personnel must explore all other options in Newton before submitting a student’s name for Gateway.

“As with any school setting, we have some students who succeed at NHS or Basics, and others that have found it doesn’t meet their needs,” Peters said. “NHS refers kids (to Gateway) based upon several factors, but mostly, it’s for the smaller

Jason W. Brooks/Daily News A DMACC dual enrollment called Gateway to College has ended up drawing in more Newton Community School District students than anticipated. This has likely been one of the contributing factors in the decreased enrollment of the district’s Basics & Beyond alternative high school campus, but Newton High School Principal Bill Peters said the arrangement is a work in progress, and Basics enrollment tends to rise as the school year progresses.

environment and catching up on credits. I think the initial rush of kids will subside, as we have a few kids in there that just turned 20, and this was an option that did not exist before.”

Newton students earn accolades for musical talent Musicians, vocalists both received honors

By Jason W. Brooks Newton Daily News Some of the Newton area’s top vocalists and musicians were recently honored for their dedication to their art.

Two Newton High School freshmen, Laura Wyre and Chase Kolpin, earned the prestigious honors of being selected to the 2015 OPUS Ninth Grade Honor Choir. NHS seniors Bailey Cupples and Jonah Keeton were selected from an Oct. 24 audition to perform with the All-State Chorus in its Nov. 21 Festival Concert at Hilton Coliseum in Ames.

Morgan Peterson and Gracie Vesper, students at Newton Christian School, were recently selected for participation in the 30th Annual Opus Honor Choir Festival. Three other NCS students — Sarah Malsom, Brianna Bower and Peter Larson — were selected to participate in the recent South Central Iowa Bandmasters Association Honor Band performance.

Newton High School’s first-year music teacher, David Baxter, said more than 3,000 students sent in recorded auditions for the OPUS, and 720 were selected to one of the four OPUS Honor Choirs.

The 2015 OPUS Honor Choirs will perform at 4 p.m., Nov. 19, in C.Y. Stephens Auditorium in the Iowa State Center in Ames. The OPUS Honor Choir Festival is under the auspices of the Iowa Choral Directors Association, Inc. Also performing at Stephens Auditorium on Nov. 19 will be Peterson

and Vesper from Newton Christian.

Peterson, a sixth-grader, and Vesper, a fifth-grader, were prepared by NCS music teacher Mary Fopma.

Cupples and Keeton of NHS were among thousands of choral students at a daylong audition in Indianola on Oct. 24 for spots in the Iowa All-State Chorus. Approximately 17 percent of students who audition are selected for the 601-voice ensemble, and Cupples and Keeton made the cut.

The Cardinal pair will join the other all-state participants in rehearsals on Friday and Saturday, Nov. 20 and 21.

The Festival Concert will be presented to the public at 7:30 pm., Nov. 21, in Hilton Coliseum on the Iowa State University campus.

Tickets are $20 each, and all seats are reserved. Tickets may be purchased from the ISU Athletics Ticket Office or through Ticketmaster.

Iowa Public Television will record the concert for re-broadcast. For exact dates and times, visit www.iptv.org.

Malsom, Bower and Larson are Newton Christian middle-schoolers who were selected to participate in the South Central Iowa Bandmasters Association Honor Band performance, held Nov. 3 at Centennial High School in Ankeny.

Malsom and Bower are seventh-graders, chosen for the “Red Band,” where honorees were recommended by their band instructors.

Larson, an eighth-grader, earned a seat in the “Blue Band” for demonstrating outstanding instrumental skills in an audition setting.

Larson, an eighth grader, earned a seat in the Blue Band for demonstrating outstanding instrumental skills in an audition setting.

Local & State News Browns Continued from Page 1A at General Motors in Des Moines, and served in the United States Army in Japan during the Korean War. Marilyn settled in Mingo, working in the Vernon Company’s graphic arts department in Newton for 33 years and spent 20 years part-time with Walmart. Marilyn married, had five children and adopted a sixth. Bill retired from GM in 1990. He and his wife purchased a Fleetwood Pace Arrow RV and traveled the United States and Canada, eventually buying a home in Colorado. After 58 years of marriage Marilyn’s husband died in 2008, the same year Bill lost his wife of 19 years.

Basics Continued from Page 1A Samantha Martin became the first student technically referred by Newton to graduate from the Gateway program, though her situation wasn’t typical. Not only did she never attend a regular NCSD campus after moving to Iowa from Mississippi, she was also 16 — the low end of the age range for Gateway — when she earned both an NCSD diploma and a nursing assistant certification over the summer.

Martin was behind on Iowa high school graduation credits for her age, and that is what qualified her for Gateway.

There are many Newton students in that same category, Peters said, and the enrollment for Basics and Beyond should go up when its next trimester begins next week.

“Basics tends to increase during the year as more kids find it meets their needs for attaining credits with less electives,” Peters said. “We have already made the list and the numbers will increase as the year progresses. The number of NHS or Basics kids at Gateway right now is about 14 or 15.”

Peters described a few scenarios and sequences of events that apply to small groups of students.

It’s somewhat a case-bycase decision process, as each student who is behind on credits has a different combination of

Bill returned to Colfax in 2010, after some coaxing from his brothers and sisters in Des Moines and Jasper County. After he returned, Bill had a gut feeling one Sunday morning that would ultimately lead him back to Marilyn.

“I got up like I usually do.

All at once, something kept telling me ‘you go to church today Bill.’ I had no intentions, but it kept telling me ‘you go to church today, Bill,’” he said.

Marilyn saw the familiar face sitting in the pews with his brother Bob and immediately asked a friend if it was Bill.

“I had seen him there, and I asked Sharron if that was Bill Brown, but she didn’t know.

Then I asked her the next Sunday because he was there again. She said ‘I think it is but I don’t know. There’s one way

missing classes, age and year in school and options still untried.

The principal said he would like to see students graduate in a way that reflects well on NCSD statistics, but that isn’t his primary aim. The key is to put each student in the best situation for their own success, he said.

Peters said he would even recommend some students for Gateway if they have already gone through four years of high school, in some situations.

“They will still count as a dropout on our records, but hopefully can gain a diploma — just a year removed,” he said.

While tuition is an issue for high school juniors and seniors who could be at Basics (Newton schools pays 90 percent of the DMACC tuition for those students), it’s not an issue with students who are no longer eligible for any Newton campuses.

“If a student has ‘aged out,’ then we don’t get

to find out. You follow him out of church and ask him.’ I said, ‘I can’t do that.’ She said, ‘Yes you can.’”

Although they left only exchanging a few words, Bill opened his phone book and called Marilyn the next morning. His first comment was an apology for being what he perceived as rude after church, but Marilyn took their meet quite a bit differently.

“I didn’t think he was rude at all,” she said. “We talked for about an hour that day and before he hung up he asked me to go out to eat. And then he found an excuse to call me in the afternoon, too.”

A dinner date at Giovanni’s Pizzeria in Newton followed, and the summer love from 1948 quickly began to rekindle.

Since 2011, the couple have

money from the state, nor do we send money to DMACC,” Peters said. “DMACC must have other ways to pay for those kids until they can get them to graduate (from both a certificate program and high school).

Peters said another option is to have students prepare for and take the HiSet exam, formerly know as the GED. “Many times, we steer a kid that direction if that makes the most sense for the individual.

NCSD does not pay for those kids either.”

Students can take general education college classes at any of the DMACC locations, along with specialty certificate-program courses, such as the construction trades and new court reporting classes offered at the Newton campus.

If they find that one of the college’s trade-specific programs, such as automotive or agricultural pursuits, they can finish their degree or

cared for each other through ailments, enjoyed each others’ families — Marilyn’s grandchildren and great-grandchildren even call Bill “Papa Bill” — and even have done a little traveling on a cruise to the Bahamas.

After several years together, friends and family began asking Bill and Marilyn why they hadn’t made their union official.

But Marilyn, who is admittedly “old school” said she was waiting for a traditional proposal.

“I said, ‘Well, he’s never asked me,’” Marilyn said.

“Then out of the blue one day he said ‘Marilyn, will you marry me?’ And I said ‘yes, Bill, I will.’”

But the proposal was not over yet. A few days later, Bill made a secret trip to Des Moines. He returned with a

certificate at another DMACC site, if they can arrange transportation for classes.

The Gateway program, started about six years ago with a grant from Walmart, has become a regularly funded program, with a long list of donating organizations that includes the Gates Foundation. The program is available at 43 colleges in 23 states.

Peters said he wants to clear the district will be flexible and open-minded when it comes to finding ways for students to get a diploma, certificate or otherwise become educated, if the student is willing to work hard.

“We have some kids there (in the Gateway program) doing well,” Peters said. “And making progress towards graduation. We are happy that they are still working on a diploma despite their struggles.”

diamond ring, took Marilyn’s left hand and got down on one knee.

“Our families have been so happy. I know that was God’s mission,” Bill said. “It just turned out so wonderful. We couldn’t be happier.”

In the years ahead, Bill and Marilyn don’t plan on letting age get in the way. The couple said they would like to do a little more traveling to celebrate their wedding.

“I would like to take her to Canada for a trip. I want to take her places — places she’s never seen. We’re great believers and have a lot of faith,” Bill said.

“Faith is the main thing that brought us back together,” Marilyn added.

Some things we don’t talk about

By Kate Malott Staff Writer

www.newtondailynews.com | Friday | Nov. 13, 2015

Editor’s Note: This column originally published Nov. 14, 2014.

It was late in the evening Tuesday night, and I had just gotten home from watching two hours of The Voice at my mom’s.

I had a name on my mind all day but with the busy pace of life and procrastinate nature, I hadn’t quite made time to make the phone call I had been meaning to make. After all, I take “Thank You’s” seriously, so I had to think of the right, meaningful thing to say.

But I needed to call the closest living veteran loved one I know — Craig White — because it was Veterans Day, but the day was almost gone.

In the days leading up to the national day of honor and remembrance, I had come across many local veterans, some I know, many I don’t,

and some just from memory or a picture in uniform, but I hadn’t forgot the one veteran I know the most.

I grew up with Craig. As my father died when I was four, a majority of my childhood was spent with Craig, “my mom’s boyfriend” as I referred to him over the years, and he helped raised me too.

Craig is smart and sharp yet sensitive. He’s caring and calm yet concerned. He’s the funniest man, incredibly witty, but he always knows the right thing to do. Even with mistakes, flaws, he gives the wisest, truly nonjudgmental advice. He listens. Craig has taught me a great deal about the necessity of honesty, acceptance and forgiveness over the 25 years I’ve known him and for those things I’m indebted, blessed.

We used to go fishing a lot and hunting, mushroom hunt-

ing, of course. We cheered on Tom Davis’ Hawkeyes and my mom through nursing school.

He taught me about the outdoors, bird species and that a Chesapeake Bay Retriever is a man’s best friend.

Craig fought in Vietnam long before I came along. I know he was intuitive and disciplined enough to be a ranger on the forefront of a place I’ll never know. He’s simply seen a lot of things nobody should see in their lifetime, although I don’t specifically know what most of those things are.

He was a young, 20-something engineering student months away from graduation at The University of Iowa when he left, and when he returned, a man, a solider.

It’s because of the sacrifice and experience of millions of men and women, and Craig, that hopefully I’ll never have to experience what they have.

That you, or your grandchildren, won’t know the depths of human distress and desperation. That our thoughts won’t be scarred by unspeakable situations because of those sons who came before.

Veterans Day isn’t just about our freedom, it’s about theirs.

I called Craig shortly after 9 p.m. that night, relieved to hear his voice, that it wasn’t too late. We spent some time catching up on recent life and then I told him why I called.

It wasn’t elaborate and not nearly as expressive as I’d wish. I said, “Happy Veterans Day, Craig.” I thanked him for serving and told him I loved him. I’m glad he made it home 40 years ago.

Hopefully, it made his day as it had mine.

Letters to the Editor

Mental health stigma plagues recovery Sue Anderson Newton Having known the stigma of having a mental illness in the past, it will continue for probably several more years yet. People who have never had a mental illness many times believe the person who does is causing the problem themselves.

All lives matter Robert A. Dahlquist Orange, Calif.

Planned Parenthood provides pregnancy services including 327,653 abortions in 2013. A concern is how many of these abortions were illegally funded.

Senate majority leader Mitch McConnell says defunding the abortion industry giant will have to wait until 2017. A delay of 18

People with mental problems are commonly told to stop complaining. But a mental illness, as they stated in the article, happens because the brain chemistry is either altered by a very disturbing event, a change in body chemistry such as hormones or some type of injury. And these eventually happen to everyone at some point in their life.

But when this happens to a

person who has never had mental illness before, many times they won’t seek help because of the stigma. They don’t want anyone to see them going into the psychiatrist’s office because of what the other person might think or say to others. So they wait and things just get worse. These are things that people should think about and realize before making a judgment about someone else.

months means that another half of a million abortions will be performed during that time. McConnell’s refusal to defund Planned Parenthood shows his role is to lead the Vichy branch of the Republican Party to fully cooperate with President Obama. We don’t want to hear this nonsense because Obama is Planned Parenthood’s loudest cheerleader We have historically refused to

cooperate with entities that violate human life. For example, on D-Day in World War II General Dwight Eisenhower did not tell his troops that we were going to defeat the National Socialists so that we could cooperate with them. The order Eisenhower gave was to rid the earth of Hitler, his band of murderous thugs and everything that they stood for yours truly.

I love my dogs. We currently have three canines living at our house, maybe I should say IN o u r house.

Nearly 300 pounds worth.

I have d u b b e d By Dana King myself the Pied Pipper of dogs — when I leave a room, they’re right behind me. When I go upstairs, they’re right behind me. Even I am amazed at the spell I seem to cast over my “girls.” They absolutely adore me.

We never hit our animals, I mean NEVER. We also have never punished them by putting them in their kennels. In fact, when they were puppies, my girls used to walk right in to their kennels to take naps — the doors were always left open. Now that they’re grown, they use the couch, my bed, a comfy chair ... you get the idea. Oh yes, they’re very spoiled and yes, we vacuum a lot. And I mean A LOT. A dog’s only goal in life is to love us and make us happy, so a stern voice is all it takes to let my girls know I’m not pleased with something they may have done. Believe me, they get that message loud and clear.

First, there’s Aspen — my 4-year-old Golden Retriever. She is the kindest animal I’ve ever encountered. Our cats even snuggle with her.

She’s so smart and very laid-back. If we had a pet friendly office at work, I’d have her with me in a heartbeat. She loves to be by my side at all times.

Then there’s Cricket, our silly, little ghost-detecting Jack Rat. If you’ve never been around a Jack Russell or Rat Terrier let me just say they have a lot of energy. She loves to run and play frisbee. And if a rabbit or squirrel dare

enter my yard, it certainly won’t leave in the same condition ... alive.

She’s actually hubby’s dog but it’s obvious, I’m her favorite. It’s my lap she prefers, and I’m the one she snuggles next to in bed at night.

Hubbs felt a bit left out when it came to our fur-kids. They love him, but they love me more.

Period. He figured a remedy to this situation would be to get another dog, one that would be all his.

So anyway...

I went home from work one evening last winter. There stood hubby in the doorway.

I can only describe the look on his face as delight ... mixed with sheer terror — something was up. He led me into the family room and take a wild guess as to what was sitting next to his recliner? A bloodhound. Belle the bloodhound — a 4-year-old, slightly overweight dog, with enough excess skin to upholster my couch.

To put it kindly, I was not at all pleased with his acquisition.

There had been no prior discussion of bringing another canine into the fold. He kept using the excuse she was being “re-homed” with us, which honestly tugged at my heart a bit, but still! There she was, this bag of drooling flesh in the form of a dog, sitting there, looking so sad, wrinkly and forlorn.

It didn’t take long for me to warm to her and forgive what’s-hisname. Belle the bloodhound is a very quiet, somewhat timid girl. If you aren’t familiar with the breed, let me forewarn you, they are a slobbery lot. We’re constantly wiping her jowls, their barks are comical, their ears are too long and always wet, their feet are huge and their eyes will melt your heart.

Oh, and guess what?

I’m her favorite.

Obsessive mom can’t bear her toddler sleeping out of sight DEAR ABBY: When my husband and I bought our house, having children wasn’t yet on our minds. The master bedroom is at one end of the house; the other two bedrooms are at the opposite end.

Two years into our marriage we got a surprise blessing — a baby girl. She’s now 3 and still sleeping in our room in her own toddler bed. She has great sleeping habits, and I don’t think it would affect her to sleep in another room.

I am the problem. I can’t bear to have her at the other end of the house. All I can think about are horror stories of babies and small children being snatched from their beds (from the window) while the parents sleep. What if something happens and I don’t wake up? This may seem ridiculous to some, but it’s a real fear for me. Can you offer some advice? — PARANOID MOMMY IN SOUTH CAROLINA DEAR MOMMY: Baby monitors (and cameras) were invented to allay the fears of parents who sleep apart from their little ones.

If that isn’t reassurance enough, consider changing all the sleeping arrangements until your daughter is a bit older. Put her in one of the bedrooms at the other end of the house, and you and your husband take the one next to hers. Have the baby monitor next to your bed so you can hear her if she stirs during the night.

You might also consider getting a dog, who would certainly alert you should anyone attempt to enter your home after you and your husband are asleep.

DEAR ABBY: I have a daughter who is now 40 years old. Until she was 17, I didn’t know she existed. She lives in another state, but

we talk often. I consider us close.

Abby, I have been diagnosed with cancer and may not have much time left. I’m only 56. I was 16 when I was involved with her mother, homeless at the time and very naive. My problem is, although I have wracked my brain over the years I cannot remember actually having sex with her mother.

Nevertheless, I love this person very much and it would break my heart (and hers) if she wasn’t mine.

Should I tell her in case she might want to track down who her father is, if it’s not me? I don’t know how I’d approach her for a DNA test. — URGENT DAD IN THE USA DEAR URGENT: I’m so sorry to hear your prognosis. A gentle way to discuss this would be to explain that you have been diagnosed with cancer and may not have long to live. Tell her you love her, that in your heart she will always be your daughter, but that you are not 100 percent sure it is biologically true.

Explain that you are saying it not to hurt or reject her, but only so that if she is not your child she may be able to locate the person who is, and she won’t be fatherless when you are gone.

5 DNR removing invasive plants

DES MOINES — Experts have disagreed about whether a man was insane when he attacked an elderly couple in their Des Moines home last year. Prosecutors have alleged that 20-year-old Ngor Makuey intended to rob 97-year-old Rupert Anderson and his wife, 94-year-old Harriet Anderson, when he broke in on July 2, 2014. Rupert Anderson was fatally injured, but his wife survived. Dr. Luis Rosell testified Thursday that Makuey believed creatures had entered his body and ordered him to attack the Andersons.

VAN METER — Workers will soon begin removing invasive plants and brush in two areas of Badger Creek State Recreation Area south of Van Meter. The Iowa Department of Natural Resources says the work by contractors is part of a multi-year project to convert the areas to native prairie. A bulldozer will remove and pile about 13 acres of bush honeysuckle in 10 locations in the two areas, which are near Badger Creek Lake.

Pipeline Continued from Page 1A crude oil per day through the state. The 1,134-mile pipeline will carry the crude from the Bakken oil fields in North Dakota to a hub in Patoka, Ill. and on to gulf coast refineries.

Landowners opposed to the development of the pipeline on grounds of environmental impact and property rights urged the IUB Thursday to deny Dakota Access’ permit.

Sully resident Brenda Newell’s family has land in the proposed pipeline path. She called the Texas oil company officials dishonest in their dealings with her father Carl Van Zee and uncle Lloyd Van Zee, who own farmland in a South Skunk River flood plain.

Lloyd signed agreements with Dakota Access, Newell said, to allow the company to both survey their family land and provide a voluntary easement only if his brother Carl was in agreement.

The Sully resident claimed at the

hearing Dakota Access surveyed their property and sent him a $22,000 easement check without the additional permission from the property’s co-owner.

“Eminent domain should not be used. The pipeline is not for public use. Dakota Access is clearly a private company intending to take private land for their own profit,” she said. “There is no benefit for Iowa. There is no guarantee oil prices will decrease for consumers. Rail lines will still be used for transporting oil. It will not eliminate spills from truck or rail accidents.”

During her testimony Thursday, Mingo landowner Kathy Holdefer — who petitioned the Jasper County Board of Supervisors Tuesday to pass a resolution denying Dakota Access the ability to construct locally — cited a statement by supervisor Denny Carpenter who insinuated state regulators are already leaning toward approving the project.

Supporters of the pipeline were largely represented in Boone by members of labor unions,

including a strong presence by Laborers’ International Union of North America and various local Iowa chapters.

Union testimony centered around improved safety technology in pipeline construction, U.S. energy independence and reps argued the project would help reduce the need for oil imports which supporters trumpeted Thursday contributes to national security and brings U.S. troops out of the Middle East.

But detractors of the project continued to call Dakota Access’ jobs projections during pipeline construction an overestimation and pointed out the construction jobs will be temporary.

Nick Rymek, of Waukee, is a third generation union laborer and testified in support of the pipeline’s construction Thursday.

He explained the point many labor union representatives pushed at the hearing, that all construction projects — not just the Bakken pipeline — are temporary.

“Some people will say it’s a temporary job. But every project

has to break ground and every job has to come to an end. This is how the career of a construction worker is,” Rymek said. “We complete one project and move on to the next. If you do that for a lifetime you have yourself a career.”

Rymek said, due to the special skills necessary, the pipeline project would have higher wages than a typical construction job — with health care and pension benefits.

Dakota Access has projected the construction would create 2,000 to 4,000 temporary construction jobs over a one to two-year period.

Opponents of the pipeline outnumbered supporters at the hearing by 10 speakers, according to registration information provided by IUB. But roughly 60 percent of the 134 pipeline supporters who testified in Boone were from outside Iowa — hailing from states such as Illinois, Texas, Nebraska and Missouri — and most were labor union representatives.

But one former union railroad employee said she sees the Bak-

ken pipeline as job killer for other industries that transport crude oil in Iowa.

Cheryl Valenta, of Cedar Rapids, is a former Rail Workers Union member. In her testimony against the project, she said the temporary union jobs created by the pipeline’s construction would take permanent union jobs from Iowa rail workers.

“Taking away 12,000 union jobs held in Iowa by permanent residents for 4,000 temporary construction jobs is not beneficial to the overall health of our state.”

Outside the event hall Thursday, roughly 50 protesters gathered at 8:30 a.m. to rally against the pipeline. In the afternoon, union workers ate at a food truck provided by LIUNA. Testimony ran from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.

The IUB hearing will continue Monday with evidentiary testimony. The hearing process is slated run through Dec. 3. The IUB is expected to make its decision on the Dakota Access permit by late December or January 2016.

The purchase and implementation of a Narcotics K9 Unit would help to combat crime more effectively and have a positive impact on the community.

The cost to start the

Newton players receive LHC volleyball honors

By Jocelyn Sheets Newton Daily News Newton High’s Megan Pressgrove received Little Hawkeye Conference honors for the third consecutive season. The 5-foot-11 junior setter and outside hitter was named to the second team for the second straight year as the conference coaches announced their 2015 All-Little Hawkeye Conference selections.

Newton’s juniors Kaytlin Ahn and Taylor Shipley were named to the LHC honorable mention list. It is the first year of honors for both Cardinal players.

Pella, which finished second in the conference at 5-1, bowed out of the Class 4A state tournament in the first round Tuesday. Norwalk was the conference champion at 6-0 and Dallas Center-Grimes finished third at 4-2.

Pella Christian and Oskaloosa each posted conference marks of 2-4. Newton, and Grinnell finished with 1-5 LHC records.

That was one more win than the Cardinals had in 2014. Newton doubled its match wins from a year ago.

The Cardinals finish the regular season 16-19 overall after going 7-29 with only one senior on the team a year ago.

Named to the All-LHC first team were seniors Makenna Bogaard, middle hitter, Pella; Brooke Caves, libero, Oskaloosa; Selena Nolte, outside hitter, Dallas Center-Grimes; Tori Van Velzen, outside hitter, Norwalk, Andrea Hortsman, outside hitter, Pella Christian; and junior Gabby Ridgeway, outside hitter, Norwalk, all unanimous selections. Also on the first team were freshman Emily Holterhaus, middle hitter, Pella; senior Chelsea Eilers, outside hitter, DCG; and junior Ryley Harris, setter, Norwalk.

Pressgrove and Pella junior Kiki Pingel were named to the second team as setters. Others on the second team were: junior Hallie Rosenboom, libero, DCG; junior Clare Anderson, libero, Norwalk; senior Morgan Taylor, outside hitter, Norwalk; junior Katie Vander Molen, outside hitter, Pella; senior Madison Krumm, outside hitter, Grinnell; junior Alexis Westercamp, middle hitter, Oskaloosa; senior Maria Settimi, outside hitter, Oskaloosa; sophomore Bekah Horstman, outside hitter, Pella Christian.

Pressgrove led the Cardinals with

154 kills and set assists with 237. She made eight solo blocks and 25 assisted blocks at the net. Pressgrove had 69 digs and 35 service aces.

Ahn, a 5-foot-8 outside hitter, delivered 151 kills for Newton. She put up seven solo blocks and 13 block assists.

Ahn had 84 digs and 23 service aces.

Shipley was a 5-foot-7 setter and hitter for the Cardinals. She put up 180 set assists and downed 73 kills.

She had 12 block assists and 59 digs.

Shipley served up 13 aces.

Others on the LHC honorable mention list were: Norwalk-Ash-

lie Van Gorder and Kiley Westhoff; Pella-Jenna Murphy and Kiara Bradley; Grinnell-Kamryn Juni and Holly DeSerano; DCG-Ally Ferguson and Tatum Jorgenson; Pella Christian-Sydney Faber and Natalie Vos. All statistics used are unofficial.

Beathard’s clutch plays crucial for No. 8 Iowa IOWA CITY (AP) — Judging C.J. Beathard solely by his stats doesn’t do him justice.

Fourth in the Big Ten in quarterback rating and just seventh in yards per game (203.4). Ten touchdown passes in nine games. He seems barely a candidate for an all-Big Ten team much less the leader of a program with national championship aspirations.

Yet there is a reason Iowa is 10-0 in

games he has started dating to 2014.

Beathard has a knack for coming through when it matters and he has inspired his team along the way.

Beathard leaped over three defenders — despite an undisclosed hip or groin injury that has hampered him for weeks — for the go-ahead touchdown in last week’s 35-27 win over IOWA | 2B

Lazard emerges as key player for Iowa State AMES (AP) — Iowa State’s struggles have overshadowed the emergence of sophomore wide receiver Allen Lazard, one of the biggest recruits the Cyclones have ever landed.

Lazard ranks fourth in the Big 12 with 5.4 receptions per game after catching eight passes for 101 yards in last weekend’s 52-16 loss at Oklahoma. Lazard and the Cyclones (36, 2-4 Big 12) will look to pull off

a huge upset Saturday when fifthranked Oklahoma State (9-0, 6-0) visits Ames.

“Allen is an unbelievable athlete,” Iowa State lineman Jamison Lalk said.

“What makes him a special player is that he just goes and lays out dudes.”

That’s just one of the reasons Lazard was such a hyped recruit two IOWA STATE | 2B

And the Heisman goes to … Lee and Coen Seniors Grace Coen and Duncan Lee are Newton High’s 2015 Wendy’s High School Heisman Award winners. The two Cardinal student-athletes were named the school’s winners and Coen was a state finalist for the Iowa female Wendy’s High School By Jocelyn Heisman state Sheets winner.

Newton Daily There were News 20 state finalist Sports Editor in Iowa. The state winners were announced last week as Stephanie Jenks of Linn-Mar High School in Marion and William Hasken of Northeast Middle-High School in Goose Lake. There will be 10 national finalists, five males and five females.

Those student-athletes and their families receive an all-expense paid trip to New York City to attend the Wendy’s High School Heisman Award Ceremony and the announcement of the two national winners.

Coen and Lee are active students and athletes at Newton High School. They compete in sports, but also

are honor roll students and in the National Honor Society. They are active in school activities such as the student athletic advisory council, and in community service work.

Coen just ran at her fourth straight state cross country meet. She holds the school cross country record in the 4K distance, but a leg injury kept her out through this year’s regular-season competition.

Running at the new 5K distance for the first time, Coen qualified for the Class 3A state meet, where she finished 42nd.

Coen placed ninth at the 4K distance in 4A as a junior.

Coen holds the distance records for Newton girls’ track, qualifying for the 4A state track meet in the 800, 1,600 and 3,200-meter races three straight years. She is looking to get healthy for your final track season this spring.

“We are honored to have two of our students recognized as some of the country’s top student-athletes with the Wendy’s High School Heisman name,” Newton High Athletic Director Scott Garvis said.

Lee was called a warrior by NHS football head coach Ed Ergenbright. The 6-foot-1, 205-pound senior very rarely, if ever, came off the football field during the Cardinals’

nine-game season this fall.

He played offensive lineman early in the season, switched to fullback on offense and was the team’s leading tackler as a linebacker on defense.

Lee is gearing up for another run at the state wrestling tournament this winter.

Lee went 35-12 as Newton’s 195-pound wrestler last year, earning his first trip to the state tournament. He enters his

third season of wrestling. As a sophomore at 160 pounds, Lee did not win a varsity match.

He returned to the mat last year and was a force, winning a Little Hawkeye Conference championship at 195.

Lee also plays on the Newton soccer team in the spring and the Cardinal baseball team in the summer.

For 22 years, Wendy’s, in partnership with the Heisman

Memorial Trophy, has recognized outstanding students and rewarded their commitment and achievements to academics, athletics and community on a national level.

Coen and Lee lead by example for all students at Newton High School.

Oklahoma State seeks to stop decade-long wrestling title drought

By Luke Meredith The Associated Press

Troy Hyde/Daily News Iowa State sophomore Allen Lazard (5) hauls in a pass earlier this season against Northern Iowa at Jack Trice Stadium. The Cyclones return to their home stadium Saturday when they host nationally ranked and undefeated Oklahoma State in their home finale.

Iowa State Continued from Page 1B

years ago out of Urbandale High in Iowa, roughly 30 miles south of Ames, and the likes of Notre Dame, Stanford, Nebraska and Iowa went after him hard. The son of former Cyclones player Kevin Lazard decided to stay near home, and his brother, Anthony, is a linebacker on the team as well.

Lazard cracked the starting lineup as a true freshman in 2014. He was second on the team with 45 receptions for 593 yards, and added three touchdowns.

Lazard’s impressive debut left the Cyclones eager to see what he could do after a full year in their offseason program.

Lazard put on 15 pounds and has since blossomed into the type of elite player that’s rarely been seen at Iowa State.

“I hit the offseason program really hard and got a lot faster and stronger. It’s just made making plays a lot easier for me,” said the 6-foot5 Lazard.

The Cyclones have made Lazard a centerpiece of their attack since an opening-day win over Northern Iowa. He has caught at least three passes in ev-

ery game, and last week’s effort against Oklahoma was his second 100-yard game in three weeks.

Lazard leads the Cyclones with 43 catches for 573 yards through just nine games — despite being the focus of opposing defenses. He has also excelled on punt returns, averaging a gaudy 16.9 yards on nine tries.

Iowa State will likely need Lazard playing at his best over the final three games of the year. The Cyclones will need to shock the Cowboys and then win road games at Kansas State and West Virginia for bowl eligibility.

Lazard’s progression — combined with the promise shown by sophomore quarterback Joel Lanning and freshman back Mike Warren — is one of the reasons why the Cyclones will have hope heading into the offseason.

“When he came in, he was like ‘the five-star guy,’” Lalk said. “Sometimes you hear about guys that are overrated coming out of high school. We didn’t really know who he was.

But last year and now this year, he’s been really good player to have.

He’s obviously making plays on the field. But I can see him give the extra effort and that’s what makes me respect him.”

IOWA CITY (AP) — Oklahoma State is a wrestling powerhouse that hasn’t won an NCAA title in nearly a decade.

This could be the year the Cowboys finally win again and break the Big Ten’s stranglehold on the top spot.

Oklahoma State garnered 10 of the 12 first-place votes in the initial NWCA coaches poll released last month.

The Cowboys lost just one starter from last season and will be led by 165-pounder Alex Dieringer, who will be going for his third national title.

“He’s going to have to stay focused on and continue to train with the mentality of putting points on the board. Definitely a big year for him to put his name in the record books,” Oklahoma State coach John Smith said of Dieringer.

What to know as other teams chase the Cowboys in their quest for a 35th national title and first since 2006: Hokey Pokey Oklahoma State also will return 149-pound national runner-up Josh Kindig and heavyweight Austin Marsden, who was eighth in the country a year ago. Austin Collica won the Big

12 at 141 pounds last season and could push for All-America status in 2015-16.

But the Cowboys will be tested early and often. They open Saturday at fourth-ranked Iowa’s Kinnick Stadium in the first meet ever held at a Division I football stadium, an event that could draw close to 40,000 fans.

They also wrestle on Nov. 29 at Minnesota — a perennial power that looks to be a bit down this year — and get a return date against the Hawkeyes on Jan. 11 in Stillwater.

Cael’s kids back?

Penn State saw its four-year run of national championships end in 2014-15.

But coach Cael Sanderson’s Nittany Lions are ranked second heading into this season, with Morgan McIntosh (197 pounds) and Jimmy Gulibon (141 pounds) expected to push for national titles. Penn State also returns a pair of All-Americans in senior Nico Megaludis and sophomore Zain Retherford, who should only be better this season after taking redshirts a year ago.

The Nittany Lions look like the best bet to push the Cowboys.

Big year for the Big Blue?

At No. 3, Michigan hasn’t been ranked this high heading

into a season in a decade.

The Wolverines are as deep 1-10 as any team in the country, with their top-ranked recruiting class from three years ago expected to help the program push Penn State, Iowa and Ohio State in the top-heavy Big Ten. Hawkeyes/Buckeyes Iowa has four legitimate national title contenders, including junior Cory Clark and sophomore Brandon Sorenson.

Ohio State, which won its first NCAA title a year ago, should be solid yet again. But the fifthranked Buckeyes will be without their best wrestler: Kyle Snyder took an Olympic redshirt to compete for a spot on the U.S. team headed to next summer’s Rio Olympics and stunned the international community by winning a world title in Las Vegas two months ago.

Individual Stars North Carolina State’s Nick Gwiazdowski is heavily favored to win his third straight NCAA crown at heavyweight, and last season Isaiah Martinez of Illinois was the first freshman to go unbeaten and win nationals since Sanderson did it at Iowa State in 1999.

Oklahoma’s Cody Brewer is back after a surprise run through the field at last year’s NCAA meet at 133 pounds.

Troy Hyde/Daily News Iowa junior quarterback C.J. Beathard is 10-0 as a starter in his career. The Hawkeyes look to become 10-0 for the first time in school history when they host Minnesota under the lights at Kinnick Stadium on Saturday. Kick off is set for just after 7 p.m.

Iowa Continued from Page 1B Indiana. It also was the kind of play Beathard has made all season for the eighth-ranked Hawkeyes (9-0, 5-0 Big Ten).

“That was epic,” Iowa running back Akrum Wadley said.

“That made me want to hurdle somebody.”

Iowa heads into Saturday’s game against Minnesota in search of the first 10-0 start in school history partly because of the sensational play of their gutsy junior quarterback from Franklin, Tenn.

“This is a special team. We’ve got a special thing going on right now,” Beathard said.

“That’s a nice part as well, making history, but we just want to keep playing for this team’s sake.”

Beathard first opened eyes with game-winning touchdown drives in the final three minutes on the road at Iowa State and at

home against Pittsburgh in September.

Despite playing the worst game of his career at Wisconsin on Oct. 3, Beathard’s touchdown pass to George Kittle was the difference for Iowa in a 10-6 win that solidified it as a Big Ten title contender.

In a 29-20 win over Illinois, Beathard found freshman Jerminic Smith for 49 yards on a long third-down play in a drive that resulted in a touchdown.

Beathard hurt his groin against the Illini, but he played through the injury in guiding the Hawkeyes past Northwestern 40-10.

Beathard then followed up his risky leap at Indiana with two touchdown drives in a row.

“A straight tough guy. When you do things like that, that just motivates us to do more,” Wadley said.

But for all of Beathard’s intangibles, there are two very tangible reasons why he’s been so good in 2015: He protects the

football and he’s at his best in the fourth quarter.

Beathard has thrown just three interceptions and lost a lone fumble, an impressive stat given that he has run the ball 62 times. Beathard also is 26-of-38 passing for 352 yards and two touchdowns in the fourth quarter this season.

“If you can take good care of the ball, you give yourself a chance to win,” Beathard said.

“You may not produce so much offensively — not that we haven’t all year — but if you’re not turning the ball over, you give yourself a chance to win every game.”

That’s exactly what the Hawkeyes have done so far behind Beathard, who has more than justified Ferentz’s decision to start him over Jake Rudock, now with Michigan, before the start of the season.

“C.J. has a ton of heart,” lineman Cole Croston said. “He’s got the best interests of the team in mind.”

Astrograph

Mercury and Jupiter give a nod to this Friday the 13th, promising to augment the already expansive emotional impact of the Sagittarius moon. Whatever kind of luck you’re having, it’s probably not as fantastic or as awful as it seems. Express yourself anyway. The passionate fire-sign energy of the Sagittarius moon makes it hard not to!

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Nov. 13). This year you’re a fix-it expert in relationships as well as in domestic and career matters. You’ll let go of one job to pour your heart into another for the rest of this year. January brings a prize. A renova-

tion begins in February. You’ll travel in the spring and your options will expand because of this. Virgo and Libra adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 10, 30, 38, 42 and 1.

ARIES (March 21-April 19).

Finding one answer will open the door for many new questions. For this reason, it’s very important that you send your curiosity down a path you truly want to be involved with for the long haul.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20).

While today’s circumstance isn’t the best you could have hoped for, it’s also not the worst you’ve known. The next

step is to determine what is necessary, do that and only that. Moderate action will bring success.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21).

The fear of rejection is practically universal. That’s why people admire those who are willing to put themselves on the line. That’s the kind of person you are today.

CANCER (June 22-July 22).

The two things you most need from today’s endeavors -- joy and challenge -- may come from the same activity. Go where you feel encouraged to work and play harder than usual.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). What you can do yourself you will

do yourself. It’s the fast, efficient, empowering way. It’s not right for every day, but your confidence and energy are high so make the most of it.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22).

There’s no reason to approach relationships the same way you did yesterday. Put a twist in it.

You’ve already proven you can be consistent. Now prove you can be fun.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23).

Here’s a way to stay stressfree: Plan for mistakes. Leave early in case the directions are wrong. Make a contingency kit in case the others don’t show up with all the supplies they are supposed to. Preparation will make life easier.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21).

You’ll play off the energy of others -- that is, as long as you’re around people with the kind of energy that makes you playful. And if you’re not, why is that?

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Some questions lead to quick fixes, errands accomplished, problems solved.

Other questions are rabbit-hole portals to entire alternate universes. Alice was never trying to go to Wonderland; she just landed there.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). When your friend is excited about something, you try to find something in it that you can be excited about, too, even if the subject isn’t initially that

interesting to you. That’s the kind of friend you are.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18).

Before you try to fit in with a group, make sure you know why they are a group in the first place. What are their common bonds and values, and do you share them? If not, do you want to?

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20).

You want to share creativity, laughter and love, so go where the social energy is warm, if a little off-kilter. You could cause a stir in a fun group of misfits.
