TOPEKA (AP) — Republican Gov. Sam Brownback on Saturday showed his frustration with part of the state budget passed by the GOP-dominated Kansas Legislature by vetoing the entire Department of Corrections allotment for fiscal year 2015. Brownback signed the bill containing a budget of more than $14 billion for each of the next two fiscal years, starting in July. Although the governor used his power to veto multiple line items, most of the decisions made by lawmakers about spending will take effect. He let stand cuts in higher educating spending, even though he’d opposed any reduction in state funding and went on statewide tour in April and May to build opposition to the idea. In a message to legislators, he called on them to work with the state Board of Regents to “craft a shared vision for higher education.” Corrections department officials have worried that they’ll have to trim spending on community programs and lay off parole officers. The governor vetoed several line items that together trimmed almost $3 million in spending from the agency’s budget for the fiscal year 2014, which begins in July, and Corrections Secretary Ray Roberts said those actions “make the state safer.” Brownback’s decision to veto the Brad Nading/Telegram Department of Corrections’ budget for fiscal year 2015 — which con- Levita Rupp, left, hands Dannie Nelson a basket of tomatoes she wants to purchase Saturday at the weekly Farmers Market at Harding tained more than $9 million in cuts Avenue and Fleming Street.

Stanton County native part of Hollywood movie crew By SCOTT AUST
saust@gctelegram.com
Just six years removed from high school, Stanton County native Trent Kendrick has a summer blockbuster movie under his belt. Kendrick, 24, worked as news coordinator on the movie, “White House Down”, an action-thriller opening June 28 about an assault on the White House by a paramilitary group starring Channing Tatum and Jamie Foxx and directed by Roland Emmerich, who also directed “Independence Day” and “The Day After Tomorrow.” “Being 23 at the time, it was a daunting task,” he said. “I’m sitting in a production meeting with people I have been studying in film school. It was overwhelming at times.” Kendrick, a senior at the University of Southern California majoring in film production, was hired by the director, Emmerich, who is a friend. Kendrick took the semester off last fall and moved to Montreal, Canada, where the movie was shot between July and December 2012. As news coordinator, Kendrick’s
job involved creating the content and information for the fictional news broadcasts and reports taking place during the movie. “I was responsible for generating all the content you see on the televisions in the movie. There are constant news reports playing during plot points bringing you along, and the actors are interacting with that throughout the film,” he said. Much of that content wasn’t completely scripted because some of it airs in the background, Kendrick said. His job involved going through the script and trying to think like a reporter would in reporting events on the ground, such as explosions and gunfire. Kendrick said he worked with a

casting director to help cast the reporters in the film, and the actors did a lot of improvisation in reacting to events in the film as if it occurred live. After the scenes were shot, Kendrick worked with editors and a visual effects company to create graphics for the fictional news companies. While there was a lot of pressure involved, Kendrick said working on the movie was an amazing learning experience that will aid him after graduation. “I personally want to direct,” he said. “This was different from working on an independent film, or even the short films I work on in school that are either completely self-financed or don’t have the level of money something like this has. We’re talking in the hundreds of millions of dollars, so it was interesting seeing the inner workings of how this sort of system runs.” Kendrick is based in Los Angeles now, but is living in his family’s cabin in Woodland Park, Colo., spending the summer writing and working on a few projects in anticipation of graduating See Neighbors, Page A5

NSA’s director, Gen. Keith Alexander, who said he hopes to declassify details of dozens of attacks disrupted by the programs. Alexander said officials don’t want to “cause another terror attack by giving out too much information.” Officials have thrown out widely varying numbers of the attacks they say the broad surveillance of Americans’ phone and online usage has thwarted. On Wednesday, Alexander said dozens have been stopped. Ruppersberger said the surveillance “has thwarted 10 possible terrorist attacks,” then amended that number to be in line with Alexander’s statement. In the initial days after the disclosures of the programs, officials cited one case. Two senators and longtime critics of the program challenged Alexander’s claim Thursday. “We have not yet seen any evidence showing that the NSA’s dragnet collection of Americans’ phone records has produced any uniquely valuable intelligence,” Sens. Mark Udall, D-Colo. and Ron Wyden, D-Ore., both members of the Senate Intelligence Committee, said in a statement. “All of the plots that he mentioned appear to have been identified using other collection methods.”

Iraq no-fly zone viewed as symbol for one in Syria WASHINGTON (AP) — The Obama administration, trying to avoid getting drawn deeper into Syria’s civil war, has pointed to the U.S.-led invasion of Iraq in 2003 as a symbol of what can go wrong when America’s military wades into Middle East conflicts. But experts say the White House is looking at the wrong Iraq war, especially as the U.S. reluctantly considers a no-fly zone over Syria to stop President Bashar Assad from continuing to use his air power to crush rebel forces or kill civilians. A no-fly zone is a territory over which warring aircraft are not allowed to fly. The U.S. and international allies have enforced them in several military conflicts over the past two decades. When he took office in 2009, President Barack Obama promised to end the U.S. war in Iraq as an example of refocusing on issues that had direct impact on Americans. By the time the U.S military withdrew from Iraq in 2011, almost 4,500 American soldiers and more than 100,000 Iraqis had died. The war toppled Saddam Hussein but also sparked widespread sectar-

ian fighting and tensions that still simmer. But when considering a no-fly zone, experts point to 1992, a year after the Gulf War. That’s when the U.S. imposed a weakly-enforced no-fly zone over southern Iraq and could not prevent Saddam, a Sunni Muslim, from persecuting and killing hundreds of thousands of Shiites whom he viewed as a political threat. That failure is now being used as a case in point of why the U.S. should or shouldn’t police the Syrian sky to prevent Assad from accelerating a two-year death toll that last week reached 93,000. The White House is undecided on whether it will impose a no-fly zone
over Syria, as some have demanded. Egypt’s president, Mohammed Morsi, on Saturday called for a U.N. endorsed no-fly zone. “We’ve rushed to war in this region in the past. We’re not going to do it here,” Obama’s chief of staff, Denis McDonough, said Sunday on CBS’ “Face the Nation.” Vali Nasr, a Middle East expert and dean of the John Hopkins’ School of Advanced International Studies, argued for a nofly zone “to prevent Assad from completely dominating this war for all practical purposes. And we need to create a no-fly zone to create a safe zone for refugees that Assad can’t reach.”

AP Political Writer
TOPEKA (AP) — An intense debate in Kansas over adopting multistate academic standards for public schools has exposed longstanding tensions between the Legislature and the State Board of Education over control of what happens in classrooms. Small-government, tea partyaligned Republican legislators want to block the use in Kansas of Common Core standards for math and reading, an initiative of governors’ and education commissioners’ associations. The state board adopted the standards as Kansas’ own in 2010. Critics of the Common Core guidelines also opposed science standards drafted by Kansas, 25 other states and the National Research Council. The board adopted them last week. The elected state board, dominated by a coalition of moder-
NEWS ANALYSIS ate Republicans and Democrats, contends that adopting multistate standards will improve teaching and better prepare students for a global economy. Republican legislative critics believe putting such standards into effect will be costly and worry that Kansas is ceding some of its control over its schools. But this year’s tensions also have deeper roots in the Kansas Constitution. It gives the state board authority to set education policy independent of the Legislature but still leaves the power of the purse with lawmakers, making at least occasional clashes likely, if not inevitable. “It’s a tension that has existed for some time,” said Senate Minority Leader Anthony Hensley, a Topeka Democrat, a teacher whose 37 years in the Legislature make him its longestserving member ever. Opposition to multistate standards fueled unsuccessful attempts during this year’s legis-
lative session to block spending on their implementation and, in the final hours, to set up a special legislative oversight committee. The debate flared again during last week’s state board meeting with three hours of public comments. Some critics fear both the Common Core and science guidelines as the equivalent of national educational standards, extending the federal government’s influence over schools. Money also is an issue because a legislative audit in December said the Common Core standards could cost Kansas between $34 million and $63 million over the next five years, as schools purchase new books and materials and teachers are retrained. GOP legislative critics believe costs could be much higher. “A pause makes sense,” House Education Committee Chairwoman Kasha Kelley, a conservative Arkansas City Republican, told the board last week. “A hard look makes sense.” The state board shows no signs of backing off. And in March, amid the Legislature’s debate, board members drafted a letter
reminding lawmakers and Gov. Sam Brownback of the board’s constitutional power over educational policy. Supporters of multistate standards contend potential costs have been overstated by critics, particularly when school districts do ongoing teacher training and regularly replace books and other materials. They contend interest in multistate standards is driven by states themselves and business leaders concerned about U.S. economic competitiveness. But some current arguments are part of older threads. In raising concerns about the potential costs of following multistate standards, GOP legislators are echoing regular criticism of the board over the past 25 years for proposing large increases in state funding on public schools. Meanwhile, board members continue to describe themselves as the greater experts on education as a result of their focus and year-round meetings. “They don’t seem to understand the work we put into every decision,” board member Sally Cauble, a Republican from Independence, said of legislators.

Kansas town’s shadier past investigated GALENA (AP) — The seedier side of Galena’s past — a past involving prostitutes and murders — has come back to life with the resurrection of an historic bordello-turned-tourist destination, and questions are being raised about just what happened in days gone by. The Discovery Channel’s Ghost Lab, with paranormal investigators Brad and Barry Klinge, was scheduled to be in town to capture interviews with old-timers as well as re-enactments for B-roll using local actors and actresses, said Russ Keeler. His Siloam Springs, Ark.based business, After Midnight Paranormal Investigations, now dovetails with what was once a crumbling, two-story home at 206 N. Main St. on historic Route 66.

Huschka remembered for his contributions Veteran, farmer built strong family, community ties. By ANGIE HAFLICH
ahaflich@gctelegram.com
Martin Huschka not only lived a long life, but a full one. The Garden City resident, who died Thursday at the age of 93, not only worked to make the community a better one, but also participated in a number of organizations, making his ties to the community both deep and far-reaching. A World War II veteran, farmer, stockman, former county commissioner, school bus driver, and member of the American Legion, VFW Club Post 2279 and Knights of Columbus organizations, Huschka also found time to be a good father. “He always took time for us. I remember as a little kid out at the farm, in the middle of harvest one time, I said I wanted stilts and he stopped and built me stilts. I’ll never forget that,” daughter Celeste Petersen said. “I learned a lot from him, yet he had a soft heart. He was always wanting to help others.” Huschka was raised on a farm north of Ellinwood near Cheyenne Bottoms, where he liked to fish. In 1947, he married his wife, Mary Ellen Huschka, and the couple had four sons, Mark, Bernard, Gerald and James Huschka, and three daughters, Rosemary Corbett, Petersen and JoAnn Yager. In 1954, he moved the family from Pawnee to Finney County. Prior to that, from 1940 to 1945, Huschka served in the U.S.
Army’s 35th Division 161st Field Artillery Batallion as a forward observer, eventually rising to the rank of lieutenant. During his service, Huschka participated in battles at Omaha Beach and in the Battle of the Bulge. He was awarded the French Legion Medal of Honor for his service with the 35th Division in helping to liberate France during WWII and had the opportunity to go on the Honor Flight from Garden City to Washington, D.C. in April 2011. Petersen and Corbett, both of Garden City, said Huschka, one of ten siblings, most of whom were girls, felt right at home cooking and shopping, as well. “He was one heck of a grocery shopper, that man; my mom had him so trained. It was impressive what he could do at Dillons — getting the right things, being a savvy shopper. He watched the clearance rack for blueberry pie. That’s what he was known for,” Petersen said. “People would even see blueberry pies on clearance and get them for my dad.” Corbett’s husband, Rick Corbett, said they decided that the blueberries were the key to both Huschka’s and his wife’s longevity. “They both ate blueberries all the time and they both made it into their 90s,” Rick Corbett said. Rosemary Corbett said that along with the blueberry pies, Huschka always kept a supply of chocolates on hand for his wife. Mary Ellen Huschka died May 26, just 18 days before Huschka died, and the sisters believe that it was the separation from her that, in part, contributed to their father’s declining health. “He realized going on without her would be too hard,” Corbett

Martin Huschka, former county commisssioner, died Thursday at age 93. said. Prior to this, even in his later years, Huschka stayed active. He delivered Meals on Wheels until he was 91, oftentimes mowed his own yard, had his own Facebook page and kept himself informed. Huschka and Ken Minter, Duane West, Paul Hoover, Al Towles, Bob Unruh and Gerald Lightcap met for coffee every weekday morning at Traditions for years, where Minter said they often discussed current events. “Having coffee, you discuss politics, farming, about anything that comes along, between different ones of us. I wouldn’t call it gossiping, you understand,” Minter said, laughing. “But anyway, we just kind of kept abreast of everything going on. We enjoyed our coffee breaks there at Traditions.” Huschka served on the Finney County Commission from 1977 to
1997 and Minter, a former city of Garden City commissioner and mayor, said Huschka was an excellent commissioner. “We supported one another on various things and were involved with the community. Both of us were for progress, doing the best we could for Finney County and Garden City,” Minter said. Petersen said that that once her father made a decision, he stuck with it. “And that’s what made him a good county commissioner. He was a man of his word,” Corbett said. The sisters laughed as they recounted their father’s tough dealings with squirrels. “He had a constant fight with squirrels,” Petersen said. “So he had what we called his squirrel relocation program and many people will associate with that. These people in the farms or the grain elevators, they wanted squirrels, and he would give them his squirrels.” Rick Corbett said his fatherin-law would use live box traps to capture the squirrels and said he took a few out to Holcomb and Southwind. “You hear people say, ‘All of a sudden there are these squirrels out at Southwind,’ and you just have to laugh under your breath,” Rosemary Corbett said. Through his work on the county commission, Huschka’s name is on several buildings in Garden City. In addition to serving on the commission, Huschka also served as a board member at the Area Mental Health Center and on the original school board at St. Dominic Catholic School and was a lifelong member of St. Dominic Church.

Even hands-free technology poses risk while on the road.
Y
ou don’t have to look far to see evidence of the problem. Practically everyone has observed motorists weaving, slowing down or otherwise driving erratically while talking on a cell phone or engaging in some other distracting activity behind the wheel. And while it’s easy to see how cell phone use steals attention from the road and can pose a serious threat, the problem goes beyond that particular hazard. Should talking on cell New staphones be prohibited in tistics on distracted driving Kansas? Add your comments at the end of the prove drivers face dangerous online version of this editorial at GCTelegram.com/ mental disopinion. tractions even when they keep their hands on the wheel and their eyes on the road. Findings from the AAA Foundation for Traffic Safety show that even though hands-free technologies make it easier for motorists to text, talk on the phone, or even use social media while driving, those acts still are distractions that could slow reaction times and cause motorists to miss stop signs and pedestrians in their path, among other potentially dangerous traffic situations. Researchers studied brainwaves, eye movement and other metrics to assess what happens to drivers’ mental workload when they try to do multiple things at once. They ranked risks, and found the following: • Tasks such as listening to the radio ranked as a category “1” level of distraction, or a minimal risk. • Talking on a cell phone, both handheld and hands-free, resulted in a “2” or a moderate risk. • Listening and responding to in-vehicle, voice-activated email features increased mental workload and distraction levels of the drivers to a “3” rating, or an extensive risk. Distracted driving already is blamed in more than 10 percent of fatal accidents nationwide, and nearly 20 percent of all injury accidents. Those numbers will increse sharply without changes designed to steer drivers away from such acts as voice-activated texting and social networking. While education is key, disabling devices when the car is not in motion is among strategies worthy of consideration. Either way, the message is clear: If we’re to be safer on the road, it’s time to slow down and consider the danger ahead when it comes to incorporating technologies that turn drivers’ attention away from the road.

Going backward with higher ed T
he recent outcry against the Kansas Legislature’s whack at higher education funding came too late to prevent a shortsighted and misguided assault on statesupported colleges and universities. Though Gov. Sam Brownback sought to maintain funding for higher ed, his conservative legislative majority did not fall in line on this one. Now the governor must confront cuts to higher ed that Tim Emert, chairman of the Kansas Board of Regents, has called “devastating.” According to the regents’ numbers, the damage over the next two years will total $48.7 million across the 32 public institutions under its umbrella. Among budget areas to be reduced are student financial aid and salaries. Now, the governor is left scratching his head, trying to figure out how to veto the cuts without simultaneously eliminating overall higher-ed funding. Ironically, Kansas lawmakers passed this budget in a year when their peers in Iowa, Nebraska, Missouri, Colorado and Oklahoma all increased higher-ed support. Why is Kansas the regional outlier? As usual in Kansas, the divide is not Republican vs. Democrat. This time it’s not even conservative vs. moderate. Instead, the politics of highered funding breaks along a fault line separating those who value the life of the mind and recognize the economic development contributions of education from antiintellectuals who see education as a commodity that should be produced with the fewest inputs
Insight Kansas Gwyneth Mellinger possible. In this political environment, the governor, who is no egghead but clearly understands the universities’ links to quality of life and the state economy, parts company with those who are in his own ideological camp on most other fiscal matters. He’s not alone among Republicans in criticizing the Legislature’s action. One of the most intriguing comments to be published following the budget vote came from Robba Moran, a regent and wife of U.S. Sen. Jerry Moran, R-Kansas. “If you want to have outstanding universities, you have to pay for them,” she said. That’s the crux of the problem. Those who voted to cut the regents’ budget by 6.3 percent over two years do not see outstanding universities as a desirable goal — at least not one the state treasury should pay for. This calculation does not consider the long-term cost of deferred maintenance to university buildings or institutions’ inability to attract and retain top faculty. Nor does it take account of the burden on Kansas families when costs are shifted to household budgets in the form of tuition increases. The Legislature’s budget vote comes at a time when higher education is experiencing historic
challenges. A national debate rages over the comparative value of a degree earned in a four-year window by attending classes in brick-and-mortar classrooms. Institutions of higher learning are under the gun to develop online and other non-traditional programs to meet the needs of adults (and their employers) who see evenings and weekends as more appropriate times to attend classes. At the same time, the state’s largest universities must expand the existing educational infrastructure for research and, at all institutions, increase enrollments of traditional, tuition-paying students. Even without a budgetary whammy from the Legislature, the times demand creative responses from regents institutions. Unfortunately, innovation, a process that requires trial and error, rarely happens when resources are deficient and administrators and faculty fear being accused of extravagance. Under overly restrictive budgetary conditions, it’s human nature to make decisions that are safe and cheap, not ones that create new opportunities. Even if the governor finds a way to restore funding, the Legislature has made a very public statement that support for higher education is a low priority and that university systems in other states are welcome to eclipse ours.

More tax absurdity from Obama It is reassuring that amid so much government dysfunction, the Internal Revenue Service has resolved the question of when and whether to tax tanning beds under the Affordable Care Act. Do not be concerned about that giddiness you feel. You are not having a nervous breakdown but are suffering a symptom commonly associated with recognition that the absurd has become the accepted norm — and that you are, in fact, alone. Indeed, the IRS’s tanning ruling comes in the nick of time. Amid incessantly breaking news — NSA surveillance, IRS political targeting, DOJ seizing — Americans were beginning to feel that no one over the age of 12 was in charge. The finger-pointing and blame-shifting have been a feast of cannibalizing acronyms. “The CIA did it.” “IRS pleads the Fifth.” “They’ve gone rogue in Cincinnati.” What? No DOJ to rehab? But the night is young. Lest you wilt from suspense, the tanning bed challenge has been resolved as follows: Obamacare, the concision of which even President Obama prefers to the name “Affordable Care Act” (ACA), calls for a 10 percent sales tax every time some pale face exposes himself to potentially harmful, cancer-causing rays, thus affecting everyone’s health-insurance premiums. (Note to tanning bed businesses: Buh-bye, now.) But, wait, there’s an exception: If such beds are offered as part of a gym or fitness center at no extra charge, no tax will be imposed. Note to citizens: If you have inferred from the preceding that “risky” behavior will result in higher taxes, you get a blue ribbon in dot-connecting. Please join the National Security Agency.
Despite the IRS’s impressive resolution of the tanning bed conundrum, one is struck by the unfortunate timing of its several displays of (a) incompetence and/or (b) ideologically driven harassment — just when the agency is charged with implementing and overseeing large swaths of Obamacare. As you doubtless recall from your careful reading of the health-care legislation way back in 2009, the act includes at least 47 new tax provisions. Also, recall that the Supreme Court ruled in favor of the ACA’s individual mandate (you must buy insurance or else) by categorizing the mandate as a tax. Which is to say, the IRS has some big work ahead. No one seems to know how much, though running estimates are that thousands of new agents will be needed. In addition to deciding which organizations qualify for tax-exempt status, as in the case of tea party and patriot organizations recently targeted for prolonged, special scrutiny, our nation’s revenuers will also be redefining “religious.” Determining whether a religious or charitable institution qualifies for tax-exempt status has always been part of the IRS’s dubious bailiwick, but Obamacare has upped the ante by requiring some religious affiliates to provide health care — such as contraception — that violates their conscience. Whatever one’s personal positions on reproductive matters, the historically higher standard of individual conscience has been scuttled by the Obama administration in deference to a universal
health-care plan that leaves the definition of religious organization and, therefore, conscience to a bureaucracy of accountants. Even if one were disinclined to care much about other people’s moral beliefs, there’s something disconcerting about the conga linecrowd determining what constitutes religious enough. Those deemed not truly religious will be denied conscience protections, as has already occurred. Among other consequences, many charitable organizations that have served society’s least fortunate will have to shutter their doors, inviting new legions to rely on taxpayerfunded social services. Or is this, indeed, the point? Dependency, after all, is a constituency with life tenure. Such concerns may seem remote, but freedom of conscience is fundamental to other freedoms we similarly take for granted. Obamacare largely dismisses such considerations, and its punitive nature soon will be felt by more than those burdened by conscience. Come next January, as insurance rates climb and many businesses opt to pay government fines, sending their workers into government exchanges, all those people who believed, as promised, that they could keep the insurance they like will learn otherwise. Oops. At the center of these disappointments and revelations will be the nation’s new, expanded army of tax enforcers — this time examining not just your beliefs but also your medical records. No worries. Once you’re medicated, the anxiety passes quickly. Eventually you will forget when everything wasn’t absurd. And you won’t be alone anymore.

or years, I have talked with a group of academics and intelligent black people who despaired at the collective fate of the race. Seeing the black, brown beige and bone ethnic group as done for, doomed to swing in the evil winds of life, it was not unusual for them to complain. They saw President Barack Obama always as a sellout or a coward who too often trembled in the shadow of right-wing folk, of wealthy special interests willing to destroy the environment for profit, of political or military men. Meantime, the swine of Wall Street were at a trough, chomping away, and the poor and the middle class were nowhere. Beyond those forces, the complaints continued, the president was too close to his pretentious college buddies who had no sense of ethnic authenticity. Those buddies of his typically believed that white was correct and black usually too ignorant to have the best answers. They did not want to hear about a long game, which is what Obama’s defenders always said he was playing. They wanted bold, brazen leadership — senseless counterfeit noise. This critical group could not accept a simple fact: Change almost always comes to a democracy on the local, not the express. During his first term, Obama went in believing the opposition was actually interested in governing and bettering the national future. So the parties would work toward compromise — on education, health care, straightening up the environment in sensible ways. That proved not to be the case — and Obama proved himself to be a fast learner. The Obama who has emerged since those naive early days understands that somewhere along the way, the Republican Party became satisfied with being talkers, not doers. Dedicated to arguing over everything and anything that carries the whiff of the president, or the slightest smudges of his fingerprints, the Republicans redefined conservative thought before our very eyes and ears. Knee-jerk resistance was supposed to convey integrity. The most superficial study of the Civil War will show that the South is always ready to rise in the defense of a lost cause. They were the elected Washington, D.C., versions of what Rep. Paul Ryan complained of as the takers in supposed constant battle with the makers. Perhaps that is why Michele Bachmann chose to leave office. After living in a mud bath for four congressional terms, she has fallen on her sword by choice. One of her biggest “accomplishments”? Helping bring to the floor a measure to repeal Obamacare — more than 30 times. At least she was stubborn. Now, scandal — or, rather, breathless cries of “scandal” — has become more important than ideas, yet another empty substitute for actual Republican plans to make the nation any better. That’s how it goes under the inane leadership of the porcine Karl Rove and the empty suit Mitt Romney. Rove was convinced, and probably still is convinced, that the smart money will be successful if enough of it is spent. He was so incompetent and so wrong that he is now legendary for his Fox News refusal to accept that Romney had lost the election. And Romney, the thorough loser, is now running away from reporters, apparently finally wise to the fact that standing up without pre-written commentary is not his strong suit. In fact, the longer he talks, the emptier his suit seems. Now that Obama’s gambling for Detroit’s autoworkers is paying off, now that national unemployment is descending, now that Obamacare, slowly but surely, is affecting real lives, the public is now seeing what the opposition is — more intent on hating the president than on loving the people of the nation. In Jonathan Alter’s essential book “The Center Holds,” he portrays Obama not as an infallible saint, but a man who will take his time to make up his mind, but will move when it is made clear what the importance of a decision different from his really appears to be if observed from the appropriate perspective. Alter is well aware of the backroom politics and special interests on both sides, and makes the reader witness to a vast complexity. This is a writer who saw demographics not as a Trojan horse, but a mustang that would determine things if ridden well and right at the right time. He also understands how and why the ground game built by Obama and his team befuddled and defeated the GOP, which was less willing to work and understand a changing America than it was ready to believe Fox News. The Obama long game will work and continue to work. Dedication and patience are necessary. The appointment of Susan Rice is meant as a thumb in the elephant’s eye and proof that the president is a master. Barack Obama is ready to throw down anytime the GOP is ready for a serious brawl. He awaits the opposition’s next move in a perpetual High Noon. Email Stanley Crouch at crouch.stanley@ gmail.com.

from USC next semester. During his senior year of high school, Kendrick moved to New York to begin working as a fashion model. “My parents got me out of basketball practice and said, ‘Trent, you’re moving to Stuttgart, Germany, because you’re opening for the Hugo Boss show,’” he said. “It was a grand escape. I hit the ground running and really had an amazing few years doing that.” Kendrick took a few online courses and worked with his high school English teacher to get the credits necessary to graduate with his Stanton County class. “The entire community, my teachers, the school board and especially my
parents, were very supportive. They really worked with me and understood what I was doing and the opportunities I was facing,” Kendrick said. Kendrick was still modeling when he enrolled at USC. He would alternate taking semesters off to work. Originally, Kendrick majored in pre-med, intending to become a reconstructive plastic surgeon, but eventually realized he wanted to do something more creative. “I wanted to tell stories,” he said. Film making seemed to fit what he was looking for so Kendrick switched to a film production major and hasn’t looked back. “At 18, who really knows what they want to do?” Kendrick said. “I think living life in the real world and doing some self-
examining I realized that’s not what I wanted to devote my life to. I didn’t want to wake up at 40 and say, ‘What am I doing?’” “White House Down” is the first feature film Kendrick has worked on, and he hopes it won’t be his last. Kendrick’s advice for others, especially those struggling to settle on a future career, is to relax. “Don’t be scared if you don’t know what you want to do. That’s totally normal, so don’t be scared that you don’t know right now,” he said. Through life, you’ll find it. I think if you want to be happy and you want to be satisfied, just stay true to yourself and what drives you, what makes you tick. If you can find something where you can do that, you’re doing things right.”

Weekend: Fresh food and recycling themes at farmer’s market Continued from Page A1
take the pieces out to make different necklaces or use the parts to do different things like that and then use the bands in other ways,” she said. She replaced the old watch faces with things like musical notes. John and Ann Mason, Lakin, also sell products that once served other purposes. “People will holler at us if they’re tearing a fence down or something,” Ann Mason said. The couple has been building things such as benches, desks, signs and a variety of other items out of old wood, tin or anything else they can
use, for about 15 years, the same number of years they have been bringing the finished product to the farmer’s market. “We did the farmer’s market several years ago and then quit a few summers and started back last year and had pretty good luck,” she said. On the opposite end of the far mer’s market, Dan and Krystal Crist, Deerfield, are beginning the same sort of tradition, along with their sons, six-year-old Gabriel and four-year-old Levi. “Everything here is handmade. My wife and I put it all together,” Dan Crist said. The Crists had a big wooden rocking chair, wooden signs, benches and hand
carved items on display. “We make them out of whatever we can find. We’ve been doing pallets lately. Last year, we did them out of 2x4 heavy duty solid benches but that got expensive,” Crist said. “These pallets hold up nicely and you can paint and decorate them. They’re more for a garden decoration.” Krystal Crist made a chessboard and carved out all of the individual chess pieces, so intricately, that it was easy to recognize which piece was what “It took me all summer, but I wasn’t consistent with it,” she said. Rosie Carter, along with her mother, Dolly Clymer, both of Deerfield, coordinates
the market each year and said there are a lot of regulars who come to the market specifically for a particular item, such as homemade pie. “There’s one little guy who gets here every Saturday. He came back twice today because he wanted the rest of my cherry pies. He thought they were all cherry ... I told him I’d make him extra cherry next week,” Carter said. “And then you have those who haven’t been here before and they’re fascinated with everything they can find that’s different. There’s always something different.” On Saturday, Nicole Nightingale, Copeland, also sold a lot of pies. “I had a dozen pies and have
three left,” Nightengale said. She said that a lot of people wait to go to the farmer’s market when the fresh produce is available, but that the women who usually bring it said that it isn’t quite ready for market yet. “I know a lot of people say they don’t want to come until there’s produce, and then they start coming,” Nightengale said. She said that the produce is expected to be ready for an upcoming market. The farmer’s market runs from the first Saturday in June to the last Saturday of September, and takes place every Saturday morning in the parking lot located at the southeast corner of Fleming Street and Harding Avenue.
Budget: Brownback signs bill Sen. Roberts sets sights on 2014 Continued from Page A1
equate, I veto the FY 2015 budget and look forward to working with the 2014 Legislature in finding the Department sufficient resources to ensure public safety is not imperiled.” B row n b a ck and Republican legislators made a point of fashioning two years’ worth of spending, saying it would promote stability and allow for greater planning. They also said it would open up time every other year to deeply examine some spending issues. The overall budget would total $14.5 billion for fiscal year 2014, and about $14.2 billion for fiscal 2015, though the latter figure would include a revised budget for the Department of Corrections. In a statement, House Speaker Ray Merrick, a Stilwell Republican, said he is “disappointed” by the governor’s decision to alter the budget approved by lawmakers. “At the same time, we will continue to work with him and the Senate
to address current concerns while examining ways to make state government more efficient,” he said. Aside from a short, formal adjournment ceremony on Thursday, legislators have finished for the year. They still have an opportunity to override Brownback’s veto with a two-thirds majority, but such an effort doesn’t appear likely. Senate Democratic Leader Anthony Hensley criticized Brownback for “the most irresponsible budget in years.” Democrats contend Brownback and other Republicans want to hold down spending to phase out personal income t a xe s. L aw m a ke r s approved cuts in income tax rates this year and last year. “Sam Brownback has signed a budget that will result in cutting jobs essential to our state institutions, raising tuition on our students and jeopardizing the public safety of our citizens,” Hensley said.

TOPEKA (AP) — Kansas Republican Sen. Pat Roberts is setting his sights on raising $5 million in his bid to return to Washington for another six-year term, even with no opposition on the immediate horizon. Roberts plans to campaign aggressively statewide over the next 18 months to retain the seat he first won in 1996. “I never have and never will take anything for granted,” said Roberts, 77. “I think I can continue to make a difference for Kansas and the country. “We’ve just begun to fight.” The odds — and $1.2 million in cash on hand — are in Roberts’ favor. No Democrat has held a U.S. Senate seat from Kansas since 1932. Roberts won reelection in 2008 by defeating Democrat Jim Slattery by a 60 to 36 margin. Slattery is a former 2nd District congressman in eastern Kansas. No Democrat has emerged as a challenger to Roberts, though state party executive director Jason Perkey said Friday that a number of potential candidates were considering a run at Roberts.
Derek Schmidt, another Republican, had urged him to strike. One would have diverted $600,000 from licensing fees for concealed carry permits to fund general government programs and the other would have placed a salary cap on state agencies, including the Kansas Bureau of Investigation. On higher education, Brownback had limited options because the cuts weren’t separated from the budgets for the Board of Regents and state universities. Legislators cut spending on public universities by 1.5 percent each of the next two years; community and technical colleges will have their spending cut 1.5 percent in fiscal 2015. But some regents have said the cuts are deeper than they appear because lawmakers also reduced the state funds available for salaries. Brownback said legislators need to work with the regents, who oversee the higher education system, to maintain “our high standard of excellence” while using state dollars efficiently.
“We’re still in the recruitment phase,” Perkey said. Kansas State University political scientist Joe Aistrup said the bigger threat to Roberts would be a challenge from the far right wing of the GOP, which appears less likely than previously thought. “He’s done a lot within the last four years to enamor himself to the people on the right,” Aistrup said. “It would have to be a big name like (Secretary of State) Kris Kobach, for example, that it would take to knock him off.” If Roberts doesn’t have a primary next summer it would be a stark contrast to the 2010 race between Republicans Jerry Moran and Todd Tiahrt who duked it out to replace Sam Brownback, who retired to run for governor. Aistrup said Democrats had a “thin bench” and few potential candidates who could give Roberts a stiff challenge. “Kansas is going to be a red state for a long time,” he said. Roberts spent 16 years in the U.S. House, representing the state’s 1st District of predominantly western Kansas. He has
served in several high-profile committee positions, including a key Senate intelligence committee in the early 2000s when Republicans controlled the Senate. Perkey thinks Roberts’ tenure in Washington could work against him with voters, as well as his recent vote against the new farm bill passed by the Senate. “I think we’ve got some strong issues to run on this cycle,” Perkey said. “We think Kansans deserve someone who represents them and not just comes back to pick up a donor check.” Roberts defends his vote on the farm bill, saying it wasn’t the best deal for Kansas agriculture and he hopes it gets improved before becoming law. Roberts said the bill he helped pass in 2012 was a better bill for Kansas farmers and ranchers, while curbing federal spending. He’s hoping for quick passage of a five-year plan that will give the agriculture community more certainty and independence. “What I really worry about is that the farmers could be planting for the government and not the markets,” he said.

Dementia and delirium are not the same thing DEAR DR. ROACH: My father, 79, used to play 18 holes of golf three times a week, but after a recent gallbladder removal, he started showing some unusual symptoms. He appeared to be a totally different person: helpless and unable to walk. The doctors diagnosed him as having dementia. I kept telling the doctors and nurses that his washroom smelled horrible and that there was a bad odor after he passed urine. Finally, after several weeks of going in and out of the hospital, he’s been on antibiotics for five days, and is his same old self again, as mentally agile as before. Please tell caregivers to watch for unusual behavior in their clients and peculiar odors. — L.B. Dementia and delirium are similarsounding terms, often confused by both doctors
and patients. Dementia is ium as “chest pain of the a slow, progressive loss of brain.” The most commemory and other high- mon causes of delirium er brain functions, often are routine illnesses of accompanied by changes the body — urine infecin personality and deci- tion, as described here, is sion-making.

Dear Readers: Here is this week’s sound off, about product packaging: “Packaging needs improvement. Bottles of detergent and softener are similar and need larger print identifying their content. This also goes for shampoos and conditioners, which are hard to distinguish in the shower.
“Transparent or clear bottles also would make it possible to see when the contents are almost used up. Flat lids make it possible to store containers upside down to use all the contents. I’d like to encourage your readers to use 800 num-

Husband not being forthcoming Dear Annie: I have been married to the love of my life for several years. Our children are all grown and out of the nest. I recently learned that over the past few months my husband has had numerous telephone conversations with a female acquaintance. I know this woman, too, although not very well. I travel for work several times a month, and that’s when most of these conversations took place. My husband says they are “just friends,” that she’s young and looks to him for advice. Annie, she’s younger than I am, but not so young that she still needs advice from someone old enough to be her father. Do you think this could be a case of “where there’s smoke there’s fire”? What should I do? — Country Gal Dear Gal: There may not be fire, but only because you stomped it out. Your husband is not being forthcoming when he says they are “just friends.” The fact that most of these calls took place when you were out of town indicates he was hiding them, which means he is not so innocent in his intentions. Nothing may have happened, but he didn’t discourage her attentions or make their contact transparent to you. Tell him the “friendship” is over, or it’s time to see a marriage counselor. Or an attorney. Dear Annie: In raising our children, we always stressed proper

etiquette and thought they knew how to behave. However, we recently had lunch with one of our adult sons in a restaurant. He continued to talk with food in his mouth, placing his other hand about two inches away from his face. After witnessing this a couple of times, I asked him to please not do that as it is not only rude, but, between the food and his hand, we couldn’t understand a word he was saying. He replied that it is rude if one doesn’t place their hand in front of their mouth while chewing. What happened to the rule “never talk with your mouth full”? — Dismayed Parents Dear Parents: We are going to assume your son witnessed someone doing this and decided it was appropriate. It is not. One should chew with one’s mouth closed. One should swallow food before opening one’s mouth to speak. If you can do both of those things, there is no reason to put your hand over your mouth and prevent people from seeing your lips and hearing your voice clearly. You have our permission to send this to your misinformed child. Dear Annie: Please pass this along to “Trying To Be a Stepdad,” whose
wife doesn’t back him up when he refuses to buy the kids expensive things. My ex-wife was exactly the same. Anytime I would try to teach our two sons that you can’t have everything you ask for, I would be disregarded. I served in the Navy, and the kids knew if I said “no,” the next time my ship went out to sea, their mother would get them whatever they wanted. The kids never had to work, save or wait for anything. Two years after I retired, my wife left me for half of my pension, and I inherited $50,000 in credit card debt. I am still paying it off eight years later. I tried to be a good provider, but my ex could spend it quicker than I could reload the ATM. My oldest son and I don’t communicate because I don’t bail him out every time he needs money. My younger son and I have a good relationship because he now understands why I am this way. If “Trying” and his wife can’t stand united, especially on big-ticket items, he will be the one picking up the tab for a long time. — Been There, Retired Annie’s Mailbox is written by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar, longtime editors of the Ann Landers column.

Monday June 17, 2013 HAPPY BIRTHDAY The Stars Show the Kind of Day You’ll Have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult ARIES (March 21-April 19) HHHH You’ll defer to others with unusual ease. There is a volatile quality to the people around you, and you might not want to deal with them. You are likely to buck the status quo and head in a new direction. Avoid getting involved in a power play. Tonight: Go along with a suggestion. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HHH You will jump through hoops in order to get what you want. Someone might become very stubborn. You could win this power struggle, but is it really worth it? A dear friend could pull you into a theoretical discussion. Think before you speak. Tonight: Go as late as you need to. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HHHH You might become snappy or sarcastic with a loved one. A money agreement might be bothering you more than you realize. Besides getting into a heated conversation, you might consider finding some middle ground. Tonight: Make sure you do something physical. CANCER (June 21-July 22) HH You might feel the emotional temperature rising around you and opt to keep your head down. Whether it will work with a controlling spouse, loved one or boss is hard to tell. You know better than most signs about the danger of suppressing your feelings. Tonight: A vanishing act. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHHH Everyone loves sharing news with you, as you offer insight that helps them move forward. Realize what is happening behind the scenes with a co-worker. If this persons seems tightly wound, make his or her path a little easier if possible. Tonight: Follow a friend’s lead. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) HHH Be aware of how much you have to offer, as far as your talent and creativity are concerned. Your assets go way beyond finances. Know that sometimes you are too practical for your own good. A risk could frighten you, but it very well could be worth taking.
DAY IN THE STARS
BIZARRO
Jacquelline Bigar King Features
Tonight: Your treat. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHHH Sometimes you don’t know how to respond to a friend’s unpredictability. Right now, you can incorporate this person’s energy with ease. A family member continues to be defiant. Do not try to subdue this person -- let him or her be. Tonight: Whatever knocks your socks off. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HH It seems as if you are withholding some information and loving every moment of it. A partner might attempt to coerce this secret out of you. This person’s action or statement could have you unexpectedly revealing it. Make time for a loved one. Tonight: Dinner for two. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHHH Fortunately you are goal-oriented, which allows you to stay focused while key friends and loved ones are intent on creating uproar. If they have beef with you, you will know it. Stay centered, despite someone’s ploy to get a rise out of you. Tonight: Happiest where people are. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHHH Keep conversations moving, especially with higher-ups. Avoid getting stuck on your differences; instead, learn to appreciate your similarities. You might feel confused about what you want from a loved one. Tonight: Realize that you come across as a very strong individual. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHHHH Listen to your sixth sense when dealing with a loved one at a distance. Note that any negativity you feel might come off much stronger than you think. Others often have a difficult time with your bluntness. Tonight: Head in the direction that your imagination takes you. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHHH You might want to let go and try enjoying yourself. Consider working from home or taking the day off. Someone close to you is on a different track, and is trying to control, organize and push his or her agenda through. Keep your eyes wide open. Tonight: Say “yes” to an offer.

Storm halts Micro Mayhem before feature races start Royals top Rays By BRETT MARSHALL
bmarshall@gctelegram.com
Watching the different drivers and race cars at Saturday night’s Micro Mayhem at the Airport Raceway is something akin to watching a chess match. What will work best on this specific race track? Do we move the wings up, or back? Will we have enough gas to complete the race, especially if there are numerous stoppages for removal of cars who have been involved in a collision? All of those variables are wrapped up into the thought process during a long evening of multiple races. Nobody understands that better than 24-year-old Tyson Hall, a veteran dirt track race car driver from Longview, Texas. “This is just something that I like doing, it’s my hobby,” said Hall after winning one of the early preliminary races on Saturday. “When you come to a race
like this, you’re just looking for a good set-up, try to stay clean with your car, stay out of the crash areas and pay attention to the other drivers.” Hall, who is in the auto detailing business, said he has been racing midget cars since he was six years old. “My dad got me started and it’s just kinda been the thing I like to do,” said Hall. “You’re not in it for the money, for sure. But the money here ($55,000 in total prize money distributed) was one of the reasons we came up here.” The drive from Longview, Texas, to Garden City was about 10 to 11 hours and Hall and his entourage that included his father, another driver and pit crew were always busy changing things out on his No. 33 car for the various races in which he competed. Changing the wings out from one size to another; moving the wings forward or backward to make sure there is better

Tyson Hall, Longview, Texas, (33) leads a pack of drivers through a turn Saturday night in a Class A race during the Micro Mayhem finals at the Garden City Airport Raceway. Hall eventually won the race. stability; changing tires for better traction. All those go into the strategy for Hall, who won that early race and was eagerly looking forward to the $8,000 first-place prize
money in the featured Outlaw Multi Open race. Mother Nature, though, decided to throw what was being regarded as one of the highest purses for a curve.
Hall said he likes the A Class races the best because all the cars have to be set up equal and then it becomes a race where the best driver usually does well.
Specht takes Men’s City title in playoff By KEVIN THOMPSON sports@gctelegram.com
Brad Nading/Telegram
Jay Warren sprays sand as he hits out of a greenside bunker Saturday on the ninth hole at Buffalo Dunes Golf Course during the first round of the Garden City Men’s Golf Championship.
Many men get to spend Father’s Day playing a relaxing round of golf. This Sunday came with additional pressure, however, as one group vied for the City Men’s Golf Championship, which wrapped up its two days at The Golf Club at Southwind after Saturday’s round at Buffalo Dunes Golf Course. Trenton Specht of Plains defeated Barry Lucas on the second playoff hole, with the college senior sinking a birdie putt on the par-4 first, but the second playoff hole. Specht, a senior math major and golfer at Ashford University in Iowa, shot a second-round 74 to go with Saturday’s first round 72 (par at Buffalo Dunes) for a 146, three over par. Lucas, playing one group behind, shot a 72 on Sunday to add to Saturday’s 74. Both men had chances to win outright Sunday, but both took bogey fives on the final hole of regulation. On the first playoff hole, the par-3 ninth, Specht landed his tee shot 20 feet past the hole, while Lucas was just short and off the green. Lucas hit his second shot within two feet of the hole while Specht left his putt a foot short, halving the hole. On the second playoff hole, the dogleg-left first, Lucas left his tee shot in the right rough and laid up 30 yards short of the green. Specht was in the first cut left, 160 yards out, and he landed his approach shot 30 feet past the hole. His lag putt caught just enough slope and dropped in for the championship birdie. “I was just trying to hit it close,” he said. “It was great. I’m glad someone won with a birdie instead of with a par.” Specht had started the day tied with Grant Vollertsen. The 2009 graduate of Southwestern Heights shot a 3-overpar 39 on the front nine but made birdies on 10 and 11, then parred the next six holes before missing his short par putt on the 18th hole. He actually started the day with birdie-par, Specht said, but he lost a ball on the third hole and took a double bogey and found himself three back just like that. “But I just kept grinding,” Specht said. See City, Page A12
ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. (AP) — Wade Davis kept the Kansas City Royals’ long stretch of strong pitching intact in a win over the Tampa Bay Rays. Davis stopped his fivegame winless streak, Jeff Francoeur homered, and the Royals beat the Rays 5-3 on Sunday. The Royals have given up three runs or fewer in 14 of 15 games. Kansas City has won 10 of 12. “Kansas City is playing really well now,” Rays manager Joe Maddon said. “They deserved to win. They’re playing with a lot of confidence. If you look at their team ERA, it’s number one in baseball. Kansas City outplayed us, period.” After the game, the Rays announced that they were going to purchase the contract of slugging prospect Wil Myers from Triple-A Durham in time for Tuesday’s doubleheader at Boston. The outfielder, who hit 14 homers with Durham, was acquired in a seven-player offseason deal with the Royals that sent Davis and starting pitcher James Shields to Kansas City Davis (4-5) gave up two runs — both coming in the first — and five hits in six innings for his first win since he beat the Los Angeles Angels on May 15. “I knew once he got through the first, he was going to settle in and be fine,” Kansas City manager Ned Yost said. “Wade did a great job of limiting the damage. I just had a real good feeling he’d get back in the dugout, he’d regroup and hold them right there. That’s exactly what he did.” It was Davis’ first game against the Rays. “I was up in the zone a little bit,” Davis said. “The walks and a couple of hits that got in there were just balls I left up a little bit. Once I got the breather in the third or fourth inning when we scored some runs, I got a little breathing room.” After Francoeur hit a solo homer in the fifth inning, Alcides Escobar and Alex Gordon had RBI singles to put the Royals ahead 4-2 in the sixth. Gordon added a sacrifice fly in the eighth. Francoeur had only 13 hits in 83 at-bats before delivering his third homer this season.
Open comes up all Rose(s) ARDMORE, Pa. (AP) — A steady hand gave Justin Rose the shiny U.S. Open Trophy. A wild ride gave Phil Mickelson yet another silver medal. Rose captured his first major championship on Sunday with remarkable calm and three pure shots on the punishing closing holes at Merion. A par on the 18th hole gave him an even-par 70, and that was good enough to become the first Englishman in 43 years to win America’s national championship. Rose hit 5-iron to the first cut of rough, pin-high on the 17th for an easy par. He smashed the most important tee shot of his career down the middle on the final hole, about 15 feet short of the famous Ben Hogan plaque. And his 4-iron rolled near the pin and settled against the collar of the green. “When I came over the hill and saw my ball laying in the fairway, I thought, ‘This is my moment.’ It was me hitting from the middle of the fairway,” Rose said.
As usual, someone’s big moment in the U.S. Open came at Mickelson’s expense. Rose was in the scoring area a half-mile from the grandstands behind the 18th green where the fans began to chant, “Let’s go Phil!” as Mickelson paced off a last-ditch effort to force a playoff. It was a long shot — the 18th hole didn’t yield a single birdie all weekend. From about 40 yards away, Mickelson’s chip for birdie raced by the cup, securing Rose’s victory. Mickelson, already in the U.S. Open record book with five second-place finishes, added another that will hurt as much any of them. Sunday was his 43rd birthday. It was the first time he was equipped with the outright lead going into the last day. His week began with a cross-country trip home to San Diego to watch his oldest daughter graduate from the eighth
grade, returning just three hours before his tee time on Thursday. This was the same daughter born the day after his first runnerup finish in 1999. All the stars were aligned. None of the putts fell in. Mickelson surged back into the lead by holing out from 75 yards in thick rough on the 10th hole for eagle, another moment that made it seem like surely was his time. The cheer could be heard across the road, through the trees, loud enough that Rose knew exactly what had happened. But on the easiest hole at Merion, Mickelson drilled a wedge over the green on the par-3 13th and made bogey. What hurt Mickelson even more was a wedge from about 121 yards on the 15th hole. It should have given him a good look at birdie, but it came up so short that Mickelson’s best chance was to use
one of his five wedges to chip from the front of the green. He hit that one too far, 25 feet by the hole, and the bogey wound up costing him a chance at the major he covets. Mickelson wound up with a bogey on the 18th for a 74 and tied for second with Jason Day, who closed with a 71. “Hear tbreak,” Mickelson said. “This is tough to swallow after coming so close. This was my best chance of all of them. I had a golf course I really liked. I felt this was as good an opportunity as you could ask for. It really hurts.” Day appeared to salvage his round by chipping in for bogey on the 11th hole, and he was still in the picture when he made a 12foot par putt on the 17th to stay one shot behind. But he put his approach into the bunker left of the 18th green, blasted out to about 7 feet and missed the putt. The back nine was See Open, Page A12

Ginobili sparks Spurs’ win Biffle gets SAN ANTONIO (AP) — With the old Manu Ginobili back, the San Antonio Spurs looked like champs again. One more victory and their Big Three, not Miami’s, will be the one that rules the NBA. Ginobili broke out of a slump in a big way with 24 points and 10 assists in his first start of the season, and the Spurs beat the Heat 114-104 on Sunday night to take a 3-2 lead. Tony Parker scored 26 points, Tim Duncan had 17 points and 12 rebounds, and Ginobili had his highest-scoring game of the season as the Spurs became the first team to shoot 60 percent in a finals game in four years. Danny Green smashed the NBA Finals record for 3-pointers with six more and scored 24 points. Kawhi Leonard finished with 16, but the stage was set when Ginobili trotted out with Duncan, Parker and the rest of starters in what could have been the last finals home game for a trio that’s meant so much to San Antonio. The AT&T Center crowd roared when Ginobili was the last Spurs player announced and chanted his name in the second half, a familiar sight and sound in San Antonio but not during what had been a miserable series for the former Sixth Man of the Year. LeBron James and Dwyane Wade each scored 25 points for the Heat, who host Game 6 on Tuesday. They need a victory to force the first Game 7 in the finals since the Lakers beat the Celtics in 2010. Miami’s Big Three formed a few weeks after that game, with predictions of multi-
ple titles to follow. Now they’re a loss away from going just 1 for 3 in finals to start their partnership, while the Spurs could run their perfect record to 5 for 5. Duncan won his first title in 1999, and Parker and Ginobili were with him for three championships since. They have been the perfect partnership, keeping the Spurs in the hunt virtually every year while teams like the Lakers, Mavericks and Suns have all risen and fallen in the Western Conference during that time. They remained unbeaten in Game 5s, including two previous victories when the series was tied at 2-2. Of the 27 times the finals have been tied at 2-2, the Game 5 winner has won 20 of them. Miami was the most recent loser, falling to Dallas in Game 5 in 2011 before being eliminated at home the next game. Ray Allen scored 21 points on the night for the Heat as Green shattered his finals 3-point record. The Heat were within one with 3:05 left in the third before Green hit another 3-pointer and Ginobili followed with the stretch that turned the game into the fourth straight blowout of the finals. The crafty lefty plays with a flair developed on the courts of Argentina and perfected in Europe before coming to the NBA. He sees angles other players can’t and takes risks few others would, but his style has been the perfect fit alongside Duncan and Parker. He converted a three-point play, tossed in a floater with his left hand as he drifted right, and found Tiago Splitter under the hoop with a pass to make it 85-74.

clutch iron shots down the stretch.” Tiger Woods turned out to be nothing more than an afterthought. He hit out-ofbounds on his second hole and made triple bogey, and closed with a 74 to finish at 13-over 293, his worst score as a pro in the U.S. Open, and matching his worst score in any major. The score wasn’t nearly that bad considering the golf course, with its tricky contours on the greens and punishing rough. Mickelson wore all black when he arrived for the final round, and in a brief TV interview he said, “The best for me is to play well and have fun.” Sunday at the U.S. Open is rarely fun. Just ask Donald, who was only two shots behind starting the final round. It all crumbled when he pulled his tee shot on the par-3 third hole — so long and hard that Donald hit a driver — and struck a standard-bearer. She was on the ground for several minutes, and Donald appeared visibly shook. He made bogey, and then followed that with two bogeys and a double bogey. He shot 42 on the back nine.

Trenkle hires aide City: Specht wins golf crown By BRETT MARSHALL
bmarshall@gctelegram.com
When Brady Trenkle was introduced Wednesday as the new men’s basketball coach at Garden City Community College, there were many other Broncbuster coaches and school supporters in the Hall of Fame room at the Dennis Perryman Athletic Complex. In the background, and with little fanfare, there stood Cole Dewey, who was announced shortly thereafter as the second assistant coach for Trenkle as he takes over the GCCC men’s program after Rand Chappell resigned in mid-May to move to Eastern Illinois University
as an assistant coach. Dewey, a 2011 graduate of Campbell University in Buies Creek, N.C., has served as a graduate asssitant for the men’s basketball program at Campbell since July of 2011. In that season, the school finished 17-15, 11-7 in the Big South while coaching former GCCC standout Eric Griffin. He was in charge of organizing the Campbell Basketball School, including all office duties and off-court coaching. Dewey earned a bachelor’s degree in business administration with a sports management minor. “I’m looking forward to being part of this program,” Dewey said.

On the par-5 10th, he hit the green on his second shot and two-putted for birdie to close the gap with Vollertsen. “I didn’t take the lead until 16. I parred and Grant bogeyed. The next hole we both parred, so I had a onestroke lead going into the last hole,” he said. Specht hit his final tee shot in the fairway 138 yards out while Vollertsen wound up in the thick rough left. He took a triplebogey seven while Specht settled for bogey. Lucas, meanwhile, made up ground early with an eagle on the par-5 third. “I was just trying to
play for the middle of the green,” he explained. “It hit a little left of the pin and I had a great downhill putt. I put it right in the center of the cup.” Unfortunately, that was his only good scoring hole, as he made three bogeys the rest of his round, including the one on 18. Lucas, a Sublette native who hadn’t played in the championship for 12 years, had a round of par as a target, so shooting one over was not too bad. “I missed some short putts and over-read the breaks, is what happened today,” Lucas said. “I’m happy with my 72.” “I had nothing to lose

BOSTON (AP) — Tyler Seguin knew something had to be said. And he was pretty sure it wouldn’t be fit for public consumption. After the Chicago Blackhawks badly outplayed the Boston Bruins in the first period of Game 2 of the Stanley Cup finals Saturday night, Seguin ditched the microphone he had been wearing as part of the TV broadcast. Then he headed back into the dressing room so the team could hash out its problems in peace. “It was really a mix of everybody saying something,” Seguin said. “I definitely knew it was coming, so I threw my shoulder pads in the training room and put a towel over it so no one could hear what we were saying. I think we needed that team wake-up call.” The 2010 and ’11 Stanley Cup champions were in Boston on Sunday for the third game of the best-ofseven finals on Monday night. Neither team skated on the off-day, instead choosing to conserve their energy after playing 10 periods while trading overtime victories that left the series tied at one game apiece. “It’s a lot about getting your rest,” Blackhawks defenseman Duncan Keith said.

today. I just came out and played,” he said. Vollertsen and Shawn Audrain tied for third at 149 in the championship flight. Phil Adams won the first flight with Carlos Prieto second. Thad DeSpain, Derrick Dizmang and Reggie Burnett won their respective flights, while Leroy Linneburr won the senior flight. Prieto’s final round 71 was low round of the tournament. Next up for many of the golfers is the annual Brookover Cup to be played Saturday and Sunday at Southwind and Buffalo Dunes.
BROOKLYN, Mich. (AP) — Greg Biffle gave Ford a milestone victory — right down the road from company headquarters. Biffle raced to his second straight Sprint Cup win at Michigan International Speedway, easily holding off Kevin Harvick after points leader Jimmie Johnson smacked the wall in the final laps Sunday. It was the 1,000th victory for Ford Motor Company across NASCAR’s three national series — Cup, Nationwide and Truck. “What a great moment this is,” said Jamie Allison, director of Ford Racing. “We couldn’t be prouder to have this moment come here today at Michigan in front of so many of our Ford friends. What a great race and a great day for Ford.” It was Biffle’s first win since he overtook Johnson to win at MIS in August. Johnson’s engine faltered with six laps left in that race. This time, he was about a second behind Biffle with three laps to go — but a tire give way, and he dropped all the way to 28th. “I don’t want to see anybody wreck,” Biffle said. “It makes you feel good when you push the guy over the edge. He made a mistake, and that’s what makes you feel good. You outsmarted him, or you beat him at his game.” Harvick was second, 3 seconds behind Biffle. Martin Truex Jr. was next, followed by Kyle Busch and Tony Stewart. Johnson wasn’t the only big name who ran into trouble. Jeff Gordon was out of contention almost immediately when he hit a spinning Bobby Labonte less than 10 laps into the 200-lap, 400-mile race. Gordon finished 39th.

a four-way battle that included Hunter Mahan, who played in the last group with Mickelson. He was one shot out of the lead until he three-putted the 15th hole for a double bogey, and then closed with back-to-back bogeys when his hopes were gone. Mahan had a 75 and tied for fourth with Billy Horschel (74), Ernie Els (69) and Jason Dufner, who had a 67 despite making triple bogey on the 15th hole. Rose finished at 1-over 281, eight shots higher than David Graham’s winning score in 1981 when the U.S. Open was last held at Merion. The shortest course for a major championship in nearly a decade held up just fine. It was the third time in the last four years that no one broke par in the toughest test of golf. The last Englishman to win the U.S. Open was Tony Jacklin at Hazeltine in 1970, though Rose added to recent dominance of the Union Jack at the U.S. Open as the third winner in four years. The others were Graeme McDowell (2010) and Rory McIlroy (2011) of Northern Ireland.
Walking off the 18th green, he looked through the patchy clouds and point to the sky, a nod to his late father, Ken, who died of leukemia in September 2002. “I couldn’t help but look up at the heavens and think my old man Ken had something to do with it,” Rose said. It seems like more than 15 years ago when Rose first starred on the major scene as a 17-year-old amateur who chipped in on the final hole at Royal Birkdale in the 1998 British Open and tied for fourth. He turned pro the next week, and then missed the cut in his first 21 tournaments. But he stayed the course and slowly picked off big tournaments — including the AT&T National in 2010 just down the road at Aronimink. The U.S. Open takes him to another level and moves him to No. 3 in the world. “Just for the last few years has been known as one of the best ball-strikers in the game. He showed that today,” said Luke Donald, who played alongside him. “To win a U.S. Open, you have to have the ultimate control of your golf ball. He did that. He hit some really
