Mayor says city ofﬁcials studying contentions by Fraternal Order of Police BY DEBBY WOODIN dwoodin@joplinglobe.com

Joplin police union members say that public safety is at risk because of a high turnover rate within the department. They have turned to pleading directly to members of the Joplin City Council about the issue they say is depleting the department of experience and tenure. “Our inability to retain experienced ofﬁcers is a liability to the Joplin Police Department, to the city of Joplin and to the public safety of our community,” wrote Ofﬁcer Shelby Howard in the letter to council members issued on behalf of the union, the Fraternal Order of Police, Lodge No. 27. He asks to speak to council members in person because “an open and frank discussion of these issues is vital to fully understanding the gravity of the situation.” Mayor Mike Seibert said city staff is analyzing the union contentions and will discuss the issues during council budget talks early next month.

OINT LOOKOUT, Mo. — Tara McCloskey, the sixth-born child in her family of 10, grew up wanting to go to college but wondering how it would ever be affordable. She had watched two of her older sisters leave higher education because the cost was too high. Two other sisters had graduated, but they were still paying back their student loans six to 10 years later. “The idea of graduating debt-free was huge to me,” she said. “I want to be free while I’m young to do differHannah Deal, a College of the Ozarks junior from Claremore, ent things and not have to Okla., on Thursday demonstrates a loom in the weaving staSEE DEBT-FREE, 8A GLOBE | ROGER NOMER tion at the school in Point Lookout, Mo.

THE JOPLIN GLOBE | SUNDAY, AUGUST 27, 2017

New MacCheesy restaurant promises bold flavors, friendly experience I’m really going way out on a limb here, but I think Joplin’s new MacCheesy restaurant, which will open in mid-September, could be a breakthrough concept. That’s a bold statement about something I have not even tried yet, but let’s just say this thing has been cooking for a while, and the time for the roll-out has arrived. First, you have to begin with the premise that mac and cheese, when properly prepared, is one of the premier comfort foods. It’s simple and tasty. The thing about mac and cheese is that it’s hard to stop eating it once you have started. You start out with three or four tablespoons of it, then it’s half the bowl, and then it just disappears. Now, imagine taking your common mac and cheese to a higher level. That’s been the objective of Sherif Magd, a Joplin resident who hails from Brooklyn, New York. For the past six to seven months, Magd has been experimenting in his kitchen “manipulating the flavors” to maximize your mac and cheese experience. In the process, he’s gained about 15 pounds, but he’s managed to create variations of mac and cheese that will taste like pizza, or a cheeseburger or the combined flavors of chicken, bacon and ranch. You will be able to build your own customized variation of mac and cheese based on a list of available ingredients. “It’s taken a lot of time to get all of the things down and the right

amounts of everything,” he said. “Our mac and cheese will be cooked in cast-iron skillets so that it will have that golden-brown ﬂavor. We’ll use cornbread, bread crumbs and even shoestring potatoes to WALLY enhance the ﬂavors of the ingredients.” KENNEDY The cast-iron skillets will come in two sizes — regular and large. Columnist The large version will contain about four cups of ingredients, which should be enough to feed two or three people. You also will be able to order your mac and cheese to go. You’ll take it away in something like a pizza box. The shop will have a small refrigerator in which variations of mac and cheese have been prepared for “take and bake.’’ To check out the menu, visit mymac cheesy.com. Magd plans to offer online ordering and delivery. The ovens in which the mac and cheese will be baked cost about $15,000 each. Instead of baking for 20 to 30 minutes, these ovens will get the job done in less than two minutes, which puts this restaurant in the fast-casual segment. You will place your order at a counter. You will be given a number, and the food will be delivered to your table inside or to an area outside where some seating has been created.

Magd will be hiring soon. You can apply via MacCheesy’s Facebook page. “We want people to join our team who are excited about the idea,” he said, noting that friendly customer service and product consistency are two of his primary goals. “We want someone to acknowledge you the moment you walk through the door.” The restaurant, in Bayberry Square, 116 N. Range Line Road, is directly west of the main entrance to Northpark Mall. The restaurant will have a soft opening for family and friends before opening to the public.

NEW MALL STOREFRONT Deal Depot, a discount store with all kinds of clothing, baby stuff, home decor and even some furniture, had a soft opening on Aug. 19 in Northpark Mall. The place is across from Shoe Depot and near the Macy’s men’s and women’s store. A store manager said all of the store’s clothing is $9.99 or less, or 50 percent off the lowest tag. Deal Depot started in Springdale, Arkansas. The Joplin store is the second for the company, which plans to open two more stores in other cities.

For more than 40 years, Al Capp’s comic strip “Li’l Abner” ran in the pages of The Joplin Globe. The strip began in 1934. The Globe introduced readers to the residents of Dogpatch on Dec. 18, 1936. The strip continued in the Globe until Capp concluded the strip on Saturday, Nov. 5, 1977. For decades, a whole world of characters and places were created by Capp’s fertile imagination. While the comic strip was peopled with rustic characters, Capp used them to satirize contemporary political and social scenes. Li’l Abner, the lead character, was strong but clueless. His girlfriend, Daisy Mae, pursued him for years before they finally tied the knot in 1952. Mammy and Pappy Yokum and scores of other characters filled Dogpatch. Capp created Lower Slobbovia as a foil for political and BILL diplomatic satire. A CALDWELL recurring character was Li’l Abner’s favorite comic strip Columnist character, detective Fearless Fosdick, who fought crime with abandon, always getting his man but creating chaos in his wake. By the 1960s, Capp’s strip had inspired a play and films. But in 1967, O.J. Snow and nine other Harrison, Arkansas, businessmen took up the idea of creating a theme park around the comic strip. They purchased 825 acres on Highway 7, south of Harrison, for that purpose. Capp had resisted previous offers but was convinced when Snow sent home movies showing the property and how he envisioned the attractions. Instead of roller coasters and thrill rides, Snow planned paddle boats, train rides and horseback riding as well as musical presentations. Capp liked the concept and agreed, and Dogpatch USA was born. The area Snow purchased had been known as Marble Falls. After Capp’s agreement, the residents petitioned to change the name from Marble Falls to Dogpatch in 1968. Work on the park took about a year and a half to complete. The park held its grand opening on May 18, 1968, Capp, Arkansas’ lieutenant governor, an area congressman and Miss Arkansas all were on hand to kick off the attraction. For the first day, there were skits by Dogpatch characters and musical groups. The grand opening ceremonies centered on a speech by Capp and the unveiling of a statue of Jubilation T. Cornpone, Dogpatch’s founder. An estimated 8,000 visitors were welcomed that day. Besides the rides, a spring-fed trout hatchery provided fish for the mill pond and two trout lakes. The Globe’s story covering the opening noted the ponds were “open to anglers with no license required and no limit.

attractions and cave tours of Mystic Caverns and Old Man Moses Cave kept visitors entertained. But the mid-1970s were not kind to the park. The energy crisis of the 1970s slowed down tourist travel. Rising interest rates caught park owners in a vise as a series of warm winters kept the ski resort idle. And then, in 1977, Capp ended the comic strip. The park changed hands in 1981. With new investment and corporate sponsors such as Coca Cola, Dr. Pepper and Tyson foods, the park revived. The Earthquake McGoon’s Brain Rattler ride was added, as were musical shows. The caves were spun off to separate owners. Marble Falls Resort changed hands and became embroiled in a series of complicated legal problems. Still, the park was profitable through the 1980s.

Are GIFs the new preferred form of communication? Before long, conversations with my wife will be reduced to thoughts teleported through some sort of technological invention that will be so advanced that the word “teleported” will be rendered obsolete. In case you’re keeping track (and Lord help you if you are), that was probably the longest lede I have ever written. Although, for the life of me, I have never ﬁgured out why journalist-type people spell “lead” as “lede,” but they do, so I guess I should, too. Again, if you’re keeping track, that was probably the longest paragraph I have written following a lede. The whole diminishing communication thing with my wife started many years ago when she started sending me texts instead of just calling me. Then, a year or two ago, my wife started adding little pictures of tiny faces to her texts. These, I was told, were emojis, and they enabled my wife to convey various emotions in her texts. Of course, since I’m an old guy, most of the emoji emotions were too small for me to make out, so they weren’t so much displays of emotions to me as they were annoying. But all the hip people were sending emojis, so my wife felt pressured to join them. That’s right. Emoji peer pressure. It got to the point that many times my wife wouldn’t send me a text with actual words, but she

instead would send a series of emojis. But because I couldn’t make them out, I had no idea what emotion she MIKE was trying to convey to POUND me, so I just assumed the Columnist emotion she was trying to convey was anger. I just called it a hunch, is what I did. But now my wife has discovered something called a GIF. I looked up the abbreviation of “GIF” to see if I could ﬁgure out what it meant, but after a few minutes I got a huge headache, so I gave up. I’ve seen GIFs for some time on Twitter, and they really didn’t bother me much. But that was before my wife started sending them to me to convey her emotions. The one good thing I will say about GIFs is that at least I can make them out. The one bad thing I can say about GIFs is that I hate them. On Friday morning, I sent my wife a text telling her that I made an appointment to get her car into the shop on Monday. She responded (and I swear all of this is true) with a GIF of Will Smith’s cousin from “The Fresh Prince of BelAir” dancing. I responded by sending this text: “Stop it.”

She responded by sending me a GIF of Homer Simpson making silly faces. I responded by referring to one of my ﬁngers. She responded with a GIF of someone displaying that same ﬁnger. I responded by saying, “Thank you.” She responded by sending me an emoji that I couldn’t make out. Look, I never wanted to be one of those grouchy old guys who says things such as, “We didn’t need electricity when I was a kid” or “We never elected a crazy person to be president.” But what am I supposed to do when my wife is sending me GIFs instead of talking to me? Wait a minute. I just answered my own question. I know what I should do when my wife sends me GIFs instead of talking to me: DUH! Enjoy it. I mean, when life gives you lemons, say, “Cool, free lemons.” From now on, if I’m watching the St. Louis Cardinals blow another game and my wife wants to share her feelings with me, I can just tell her to send me a GIF. Then, during a commercial break, I can glance at my phone to quickly determine her current emotion. Anger. Call it a hunch.

naked man who startled a mother A and her children on a

The woman described to police a “naked elderly man” with a walker. So police went to the scene assuming there was a medical issue. Deputy Chief Bill Bonney told the Morning Sentinel that Thompson was still naked when ofﬁcers caught up with him. Bonney says police had received similar complaints in the past but were unable to substantiate them. Thompson couldn’t be reached for comment. And it’s unknown if the Waterville resident has a lawyer who could comment for him.

DEAR ABBY: I have a friend, “Charlene,” whom I met through a local charity organization. We have many things in common, including the fact that we’re both retired, and we enjoy each other’s company. Charlene is slim, energetic and ﬁt. The problem is, it’s impossible to share a meal with her. As soon as the food is served, Charlene starts a commentary about “how big the portions are” and how she “couldn’t possibly eat” what is before her (it doesn’t matter how little). Often, she does eat ABIGAIL most of her VAN BUREN meal. Then the ongoing comments Columnist start about how she was such a pig, she won’t be able to eat another thing all day. I don’t know if she thinks she’s setting a good example (I am not slim), or if she has psychological issues surrounding food. I am tired of this. Is there any way I can ask her to stop without hurting her feelings? — Sick of Hearing It in Idaho DEAR SICK: I can see how sitting through repeat performances of those refrains would get old. There’s a way to get her to stop. All you have to say is, “You know, when you say that, it prevents me from enjoying my meal, so please don’t do it when you’re with me.” DEAR ABBY: I have been selected to attend a symposium in New York that will be attended by members of the British royal family. While I feel no animosity toward the royal family, some of my ancestors died ﬁghting for freedom from English rule during the American Revolution.

I think it would be a grave dishonor to my ancestors to address the royals as “Your Highness” or any other term that suggests they are above me, especially because this gathering will take place on U.S. soil. How can I address them in a way that would be respectful, but would not demean the sacriﬁces of my ancestors? — Ken in Ohio DEAR KEN: Be polite and gracious. Do not raise the subject of the American Revolution, because I am sure they are well aware of it. To smile and say, “It’s nice to meet you,” would not dishonor your ancestors or embarrass the sponsors of the symposium, and that’s what I recommend you do.

DEAR ABBY: I am the mother of a large family. On Sundays, some of them come over to visit me. Sometimes they’ll get into arguments and get really angry. Because this is happening in my home, what position am I to take? I was told by one of my daughters that I should not allow them to come here anymore. Because I am not involved in the argument, I don’t feel I should do that. I enjoy my daughters visiting me. I don’t want to tell them they cannot come. What do you advise? — Mom of Many in the West DEAR MOM OF MANY: You’re the mother. If your family’s heated arguments make you uncomfortable — and a pitched battle would qualify — you are within your rights to tell them you prefer they argue elsewhere because it upsets you. I do NOT advise you to exercise the “nuclear option” by banishing them from the premises, because to do so would be an overreaction.

Armed Forces Music Festival draws community support Festival features

BY KIMBERLY BARKER kbarker@joplinglobe.com

NEOSHO, Mo. — Morse Park in Neosho was filled with music and camaraderie on Saturday during the fifth annual Four-States Armed Forces Music Festival as the community honored active and retired military personnel. Originally slated for May 27, the festival was postponed after major flooding a month earlier left the park under water. The festival was presented by Pinnacle Veterinary Clinic to raise funds to support local veterans organizations. A portion of the clinic’s event booth proceeds will be donated to Heartland Canines for Veterans, a nonprofit organization that provides service dogs to disabled veterans. “There’s a lot of good reasons to be charitable, and I couldn’t imagine someone more deserving than the men and women who volunteer to lay down their lives for this country,” clinic owner and Marine Corps veteran Chris Fleming said.

New class of debtor rising in Oklahoma EDITOR’S NOTE: This is the third

installment of a weekly series on the ﬁnancial struggles of Oklahomans. BY JANELLE STECKLEIN CNHI Oklahoma Reporter

OKLAHOMA CITY — Lou Carmichael’s staff often focuses on educating Oklahomans on how to navigate the state’s complex health care system. One of the first lessons: Only go to the emergency room during a legitimate health emergency. It’s a lot cheaper to go to a local doctor or urgent care clinic for basic ailments. Still, Carmichael’s staff has discovered a surprising number of Oklahomans don’t realize that. “I think people just grow up thinking (the hospital) is the only access they have, so that’s just where they go,” said Carmichael, who is CEO of the nonprofit Variety Care, which operates community health centers in Oklahoma, Cleveland, Caddo and Tillman counties. Experts say that lesson is becoming increasingly critical for Oklahomans. Assuming they have adequate health insurance, thousands suddenly find themselves facing insurmountable medical debt resulting from quick trips to the emergency room for routine treatments. While hospitals have long struggled to collect from patients, a new class of Oklahoma debtor is rising that’s endangering the health of dozens of rural hospitals and other medical providers statewide. Meanwhile, some Oklahomans are struggling to pay rising deductibles. Tina Morgan, a 45-year-old Enid resident, Tina said she pays Morgan $300 a month on private insurance and can only afford to go to the doctor once a year. “I’m having some medical problems and have to see a specialist that is going to cost $200 — plus a CAT scan that’s going to cost $900,” Morgan said. Because she already saw a doctor once this year, Morgan said her insurance will pay $100 of the CAT scan and nothing on the specialist. “If I go any other time, I pay full price,” she said. “So I have to suffer because I can’t afford the cost. “I pay all this money for insurance, and I can’t even see a doctor when I’m sick, so why have insurance and pay all that money out? I think insurance companies take advantage of people that can’t afford (their) high prices.” Morgan said it makes her mad. “You work all your life and can’t afford the medicine and doctors because it’s too high (priced),” she said. “People have to make a choice — food or their medicine.” They’re the Oklahomans who are actually insured — many for the first time under the provisions of the federal Affordable Care Act — but can’t afford the thousands in additional payments, known as deductibles, that they must first pay before their benefits kick in. “I don’t want you to get the impression that nobody pays their deductible, but it is an interesting new class of bad debt for these small hospitals and really for large hospitals, too, but they have the ability to absorb it a little better,” said Andy Fosmire, vice president of rural health for the Oklahoma Hospital Association.

PAYCHECK-TO-PAYCHECK Earlier this year, nearly three dozen rural Oklahoma hospitals had less than two weeks of cash in the bank, said Rick Wagner, a certiﬁed public accountant with Denver-based Eide Bailly, which works with medical facilities. Wagner said he has been

tal dries up, the community doctors leave. The local ambulance system collapses or ends up having to spend hours transporting someone to hospitals two or three counties away. “I don’t think everybody understands the domino effect this has,” Wagner said. Urban hospitals, which are often set up to handle more complex health issues, meanwhile, don’t have the capacity to care for tens of thousands of sick rural Oklahomans, experts say. And the high number of uninsured Oklahomans further complicates the issue, experts say. Nearly 1 in 6 Oklahomans under the age of 65 does not have health insurance, according to the U.S. Census Bureau. Hospitals typically expect to collect less than 10 percent of the charges those patients accrue, Wagner said. And uninsured or underinsured patients with high deductible plans living in rural Oklahoma are less likely to seek care, which exacerbates what would normally be a simple condition to treat, said Chuck Spicer, president and chief executive officer of OU Medical System. His hospital is seeing more of those patients showing up in their emergency room or intensive care unit. “A lot of hospitals in the metro are struggling now with those high deductible plans,” he said. His hospital system provides more indigent, charity care than anywhere else in the state, he said. “A rural hospital that has a much smaller footprint is much more vulnerable if they have an influx in one month of a high number of indigent patients,” Spicer said. “That could bankrupt them.” In part, that’s because patients consider rural hospitals their first line of defense. If a patient needs treatment that’s beyond the scope of a rural facility, they’re shipped to a metropolitan hospital. Because of the initial rural treatment, the larger hospital is able to collect from the insurance company while the rural one eats the debt, Wagner said. Still, Spicer said more patients are correctly choosing not to seek emergency care if it’s for a minor issue. “We think that’s probably a good thing, but if they do need emergency care and they have a high deductible plan, it’s taxing on both the patient and the hospital,” Spicer said. That’s where clinics like Carmichael’s come in. Last year, her 16 community health centers provided affordable access to medical, dental, mental health and vision to 104,000 Oklahomans living in 26 counties regardless of a patient’s ability to pay. The poorest and uninsured patients pay on a sliding scale. Insured patients pay their plan deductibles. The clinics she operates only see about 3 percent of patients default on what they owe, and those that do are defaulting on a much smaller bill than they’d incur at a hospital, she said. “It takes people a while to get there, but they pay their bill,” Carmichael said. Her facility aims to keep people from ending up in emergency rooms. It keeps patient costs RURAL VERSUS URBAN down, often leads to improved health outcomes Larger, urban hospitals, and gets more Oklahomans which have a higher volinvested in their health, she ume of patients, can better said. absorb bad debt, but the “Those are the three stools patients at rural hospitals of health-care reform,” Cartend to be older, sicker and michael said. “If we don’t poorer, Fosmire said.

When a hospi- three things.” working with seven Oklahoma hospitals that are losing tens of thousands — if not hundreds of thousands — of dollars a month, due to Oklahomans defaulting on their share of treatment costs. He couldn’t identify those hospitals for privacy reasons, but said hospitals in southeastern and southwestern parts of the state are suffering significantly, as are those in the most impoverished regions of the state. “(Patients), they have no money,” Wagner said. “They have their insurance, yet their insurance is worthless because there’s a $5,000 deductible on it. Ultimately, if there’s no money to get, there’s no money to get so the hospital winds up eating it.” While Oklahomans can’t show up at the grocery store and just leave without paying for a cartload of food, federal law requires hospitals provide at least basic care for anyone who shows up at their door — regardless of their ability to pay, Wagner said. “(A) very large portion of the working poor in this state … can’t afford their health care,” Wagner said. “Yet, when they have an emergency, we still have to take care of them, which is the right thing to do, but we really don’t have the funding backing us up on that.” In the past, experts say commercial health insurance plans helped rural hospitals stay afloat. However, many of those plans now amount to little more than self-pay options where in addition to hefty monthly premiums, a patient typically has to pay thousands before insurance first kicks in. “They don’t understand,” said Teresa Huggins, the chief executive officer of the Stigler Health and Wellness Center. The community health center serves more than 22,000 patients a year living in seven counties across parts of eastern and southeastern Oklahoma. “They’re saying, ‘I’m paying for insurance every month, and now I’m having to pay more when they go the doctor,’” said Huggins, whose seven locations bill patients based on their ability to pay. “Unless they have a catastrophe, they’re not going to meet that $6,000 deductible. A lot of the patients are not very happy when they figure that out — when they figure out the real way it works.” While more patients visiting her nonprofit facility have insurance, Huggins said an increasing number are struggling to pay medical bills as little as $120 and are defaulting on their debt. That means her medical, dental, vision and mental health clinics have fewer dollars to expand services. Emergency room visits, meanwhile, often cost $2,000 or $3,000, Wagner said. Today, people are walking into hospitals thinking they have insurance plans that will cover the bulk of that visit, but are unaware that they have a $6,500 deductible that they have to pay first, Fosmire said. Fosmire said many patients will try to work out a payment plan with a hospital — say $20 a month — but whether they’ll actually pay it all is anyone’s guess.

WASHINGTON — Marilyn Hershey hates it when asked if she prefers almond milk in her latte at a coffee shop in Chester County, Pennsylvania. “Absolutely not,” she replies. “Sometimes, they’ll get a sermon about why I want whole milk.” Her objection is home grown. Hershey is a fourth-generation dairy farmer, whose milk product comes from the udders of cows, not plants or nuts. And she wants it to stay that way. Yet coffee shops, supermarkets and other outlets increasingly feature cow milk alternatives made with extracts of almond, soybean, coconut, rice and other plant-based products. America’s dairy farmers want the U.S. Food and Drug Administration to step in and stop what they call misuse of the word milk by alternatives. They argue too many consumers falsely believe they are buying real milk and its nutrients. “More imitators want to use milk’s good name” to sell their product, complained Chris Galen, spokesman for the National Milk Producers Federation, adding that alternatives deliberately sow confusion. “Why else would they sell it as milk?” he asked. Hershey agreed. She said she meets people who think almond milk is almond-flavored cow milk. The federal Food Standards Code defines milk as “the mammary secretion of milking animals.” But the code and the FDA also allow non-animal products to use the term as long as the derivative of their alternative milk is clear to consumers. That includes pointing out that the main ingredient is filtered water. Members of Congress from dairy states have weighed in on the long-running feud over what constitutes milk in America. Republican Representatives Tom Marino of Pennsylvania, and John Katko and Elise Stefanik of New York have urged the FDA to strictly enforce the definition of milk and crack down on the alternatives. Michigan Democratic Sens. Debbie Stabenow and Gary Peters are co-sponsors of a bill introduced by Sen. Tammy Baldwin, D-Wisc., making it illegal to describe a product as milk if it does not come from a “hooved animal.” The result is a conflict that pits the dairy industry against the plant-based

milk industry, which generated $1.4 billion in sales last year, according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture. They contend it is ridiculous to say they’re confusing consumers into thinking soymilk or almond milk comes from cows, pointing to their labels that describe the percentage of extract and ﬁltered water in alternative products. They also say Americans want nondairy choices for health and humane reasons. People buy those products precisely because they’re lactose intolerant, are gluten-free or are simply looking for an alternative to real milk, said John Cox, executive director of the Soyfoods Association of North America. In a letter opposing Baldwin’s bill, the association told Senate leaders it surveyed 814 grocery shoppers last year, and not one thought soy milk contained cow milk. Three-fourths of the respondents offered that the main ingredient in soy milk is soybeans. Producers should be able to use the term milk to let customers know it can be added to cereal or in coffee in the same way regular milk can, said Jessica Almy, policy director for the nonproﬁt Good Food Institute. The institute works with startups creating new plant-based substitutes to meat and dairy products for environmental and health reasons. Barring companies from using the word milk, would violate their free speech rights, the institute wrote the FDA. And, it added, if the agency rules against alternative milk producers, a lawsuit could well challenge the decision. For the dairy industry, the debate is critical to survival as milk is no lon-

ger a staple of most meals. Americans are drinking 37 percent less cow milk than they did in 1970, according to Agriculture Department data. “People used to drink milk when they sat down at dinner, but now they go get fast food or Subway,” said Jayne Sebright, executive director of the Center for Dairy Excellence, an advocacy group for Pennsylvania’s dairy industry. To compete with beverages like sports drinks, dairy companies are creating milk fortiﬁed with proteins, and introducing new bottles that keep milk colder longer, she said. The decline in milk sales has hit Pennsylvania dairy farmers particularly hard, she said, because most processing plants in the state rely on milk instead of other dairy products such as cheese and yogurt. Some dairies in her eastern Pennsylvania region are in danger of failing, Hershey said. She’s turned to feeding her 750 cows with cheaper brewers grain, the residue left over from making beer. Elsewhere, dairies are still recovering from a drop in exports to China and Russia a few years ago, said Leo Timms, an Iowa State University dairy expert. Meanwhile, almond milk and plant-based food sales are growing by leaps and bounds. And that is a primary concern for dairy farmers, said Timms, along with their pride in producing real milk from cows, an American tradition for ages. “It’s partly concern over competition, and partly concern over tarnishing of milk’s image,” he said.

ST.

mented because of the state law. “A living wage is the foundation for strong families and strong communities,” councilman Jermaine Reed said at the time. “We are urging Kansas City businesses to show the rest of the country that the will of people should not be ignored and take this opportunity to pay their workers fairly.” The Economic Policy Institute, a Washington-based research nonproﬁt, said in a report released Saturday that Republican-controlled state legislatures increasingly use pre-emption laws to supersede local law. The institute cited 33 labor and employment pre-emption laws passed by state governments since 2010. Among them was a law passed in Alabama that nulliﬁed a 2015 Birmingham ordinance that would have raised the city minimum

wage to $10.10 by July 2017. In Iowa, Republican Gov. Terry Branstad in March signed a pre-emption law, nullifying wage hikes in two counties and stopping implementation in a third county before it could take effect. The statewide minimum wage in Alabama and Iowa is $7.25 per hour, the U.S. minimum. The effort toward a higher wage continues in Missouri. A group called Raise Up Missouri is gathering signatures to put a ballot initiative before voters in November 2018 to raise the minimum wage statewide to $8.60 per hour in 2019, with 85-cent raises each year after that until the wage gets to $12 an hour in 2023. Twenty-nine states and the District of Columbia have minimum wage rates above the U.S. minimum, according to Economic Policy Institute data.

coming, scheduled for Sept. 14, he said. The Joplin Professional Firefighters union tried a few years ago to get a contract through collective bargaining without success, said Adam Grimes, a Joplin firefigher, in a statement he issued last week. “Joplin firefighters suspended the contract negotiations in an attempt to work out the issues with City Manager Anselm,” he said. “A few things were worked out, however the main problem of pay and firefighter retention has continuously been recognized as a problem with no real solutions.” The city manager has previously said that police officer retention is an issue all over the U.S. The finance committee also said it is a national problem. “We do agree that it is a problem nationwide,” Howard said, but local officers feel that the workload combined with the decreased average of officer experience as a result of turnover is creating a public safety issue.

ruling, Missouri’s Republican-led Legislature passed a statewide uniform minimum wage requirement. The state minimum wage is $7.70 per hour. Republican Gov. Eric Greitens declined to veto the bill, allowing it to become law. An estimated 35,000 St. Louis workers saw pay raises after the court ruling, and the city’s plan had called for the minimum wage to increase to $11 per hour in 2018. State Sen. Dan Hegeman, a Republican from rural northwest Missouri, said the higher minimum would force some employers to either cut jobs or move. “You end up having fewer jobs and you do a disservice to the workers,” Hegeman said. “In my heart of hearts, I really think it hurts people in the long run.” Supporters of the higher wage say it’s virtually im-

COLLECTIVE BARGAINING City Manager Sam Anselm was asked whether police and fire should be considered separately from general employees for pay ranges and benefits. He said he could not answer Globe questions without conferring first with the council. Police and firefighters have said for several years that the pay scale for their departments is inadequate and is a factor in employee retention. As a result, police this year are conducting collective bargaining with the city. Howard’s letter comes at a time when a second union bargaining session is up-

CURTAINS UP SERIES | 2017/2018

Chloe Jaudes, a College of the Ozarks senior from Morrisville, Mo., on Thursday repots GLOBE | ROGER NOMER a plant at the greenhouse at the school in Point Lookout, Mo.

DEBT-FREE: School rejects loans FROM 1A worry about paying off my education.” Student loans have indeed become worrisome to millions of students and graduates who are saddled with an increasing amount of debt. There are more than 44 million borrowers with approximately $1.4 trillion in student loan debt in the U.S. alone, according to the latest statistics from Make Lemonade, an online personal ﬁnance company. The average student in the class of 2016 has $37,172 in student loan debt, the group said. But McCloskey will be one of the lucky ones. She is enrolled at College of the Ozarks, which has developed its own unique solution to the debt crisis by not participating in any federal or state loan programs and by not honoring private bank loans for students. That move essentially means that students who graduate from the private, four-year school near Branson will do so without owing anything for their education. They pay for their tuition and room/ board costs by working at one of about 130 stations around the campus — in the six greenhouses, at the campus restaurant, in the kitchen that produces the college’s famous fruitcakes — throughout the year. “Student debt is an increasingly serious problem in education,” President Jerry C. Davis said in an interview with the Globe. “This is a work college, not a loan agency.”

“If they were saddled with a lot of debt, I don’t think they would have taken that risk,” she said. “I think (going debt-free) has been a win for everybody.”

MORE STUDENT BORROWERS

The College of the Ozarks has found a way to avoid sending its graduates into the workforce with student loan debt, but a majority of students who leave other higher education institutions aren’t so lucky — and the numbers are rising. Only 20 percent of all student loan borrowers had more than $20,000 in debt upon graduation 15 years ago, but that number has now jumped to more than 40 percent, according to a report out earlier this month from the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. As borrowers increasingly wait until they’re older when they begin to repay their loans, or as parents or grandparents take out loans on behalf of their students, the number of consumers with a credit record who have an outstanding student loan debt is pushed to 20 percent, the bureau report said. That’s particularly troublesome because up to 30 percent of older borrowers don’t pay off their loans in the standard 10-year repayment period, according to the report. “How quickly and how successfully borrowers manage to repay student loans has important implications not only for borrowers and holders of student debt — largely the federal government — but for ‘UNNECESSARY BURDEN’ other credit markets as well,” the authors of the report said. It has been about four years since the Recognizing the problem, colleges and college — nicknamed “Hard Work U” — universities have ramped up efforts to rejected student loans, and officials and help their students better understand their students there couldn’t be happier about how the model works. Davis noted that the debt.

Lions — still young — look to make strides in Year 3 under Johnson BY ADAM BURNS aburns@joplinglobe.com

Plenty of times since last fall, Denver Johnson has been can did about his youthful roster. Now in his third year at the helm, Johnson has led a restruc ture of the Missouri Southern football program — decreasing the number of junior college re cruits and hauling in large high school recruiting classes. “We’re trying to resist the temptation to get back in that business wholesale,” Johnson said of the juco route. “We’re committed to four- and five-year players.” So far the results aren’t there, as the Lions have compiled a 3-19 record in the two-year span. And approaching Year 3, Johnson has said during mul tiple interviews—dating back to a post-spring ball press con ference, continuing through the MIAA media day and leading

up to last Saturday—that this year’s roster mirrors a junior varsity squad. “We’re as young as we’ll ever be,” Johnson said. “We knew we’d get to this point. But to this point forward, this team should begin to mature and grow up. We’re basically a freshman and a redshirt freshman class right now.” “We’ve got the roster bal anced out horizontally across the depth chart. Now we got to start getting it balanced out vertically from seniors to fresh men. We’re still a couple years away from that, but when we get there, we’ll still be in pretty good shape.” Depth is a concern at most positions, and as a result, the Lions had limited contact in the preseason. “We’ve had a little bit of live contact.

Cornerstone debuts its new field, cruises to opening victory BY JARED PORTER ¡porter@joplinglobe.com

The Cornerstone Spartans 8-man high school team debuted its new football field in style Sat urday afternoon, earning a deci sive 30-6 victory over Immanuel Lutheran Christian Academy of Broken Arrow, Oklahoma, at Calvary Baptist Church in south Joplin. Since the Cornerstone pro gram was founded in 2007, it had never played a home game on a field that it could call its own until Saturday’s season opener. The playing surface and site were constructed, as well as funded, over the summer by the coaches, players and parents involved with the not-for-profit Christian-based organization. “It’s like a ton of bricks off my shoulders because every year

was a struggle leading up to this,” Cornerstone founder and head coach Jerry Collier said. “It wasn’t fun having to tell players, ‘Hey, keep an ear to the phone because we don’t know where we’re playing this week end.’ But now, we have our own field, one that these kids helped build and invested in. It means so much to them and me to have a field that they can call home.” Collier added that there was some uncertainty about how the field’s debut would unfold. “It was a little scary at first be cause it was the first game on the field and you wanted everything to run smooth and be perfect,” he said. “There were a lot of butterflies and jitters.” The nerves turned into excite ment as soon as the game began, thanks to an 80-yard kickoff

return by Cornerstone senior Garret Severs. And even though the TD was waved off by a block-in-the-back penalty, the Spartans began their first drive with favorable field position at the opponent’s 20-yard line. Six plays later, Gaige Gess trucked his way into the end zone for a one-yard TD to give Cornerstone its first points on its home field. “That opening drive took a lot of the pressure off,” Collier said. “The kids started to relax and just play the game the way they were coached to.” Cornerstone scored on all five of its drives in the first half while shutting down Lutheran on defense. By halftime, the Spartans led 30-0. SEE DEBUTS, 3B

SOUTH WILLIAMSPORT, Pa. — Lufkin, Texas, came from five runs down on Saturday to take the United States bracket at the Little League World Series. Its task may be even tougher today, when Lufkin takes on 10-time tournament winner Japan in the championship game. Japan has won four of the last seven Little League World Series, and Tokyo Kitasuna, the club representing Japan this year, has won the championship three times before. Its most recent title came in 2015 under current manager Junnji Hidaka. A Texas team has won the Little League World Series twice before and has appeared in the final six times previously. Despite Lufkin’s elation at winning in such dramatic fashion, the team’s manager and players said after they beat Greenville, North Carolina, 6-5 that their hearts go out to those affected by Hurricane Harvey, which was battering Texas. “I’ve heard that it’s been pretty bad,” manager Bud Maddux said. “Hopefully, (the Little League World Series) takes their mind off it a little bit, that it helps them get through it. We’re feeling for them.” Japan has cruised through the first four games of the tournament, outscoring opponents 27-1. What’s perhaps most impressive is the team has yet to commit an error. Lufkin’s only loss came against Greenville in extra innings on Wednesday. The team bounced back to beat Fairfield, Connecticut, 14-4 and Greenville 6-5.

Pham’s homer in ninth gives Cards win THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

ST. LOUIS — Tommy Pham hit a two-run homer in the ninth inning, and the St. Louis Cardinals rallied for a 6-4 victory over the Tampa Bay Rays on Saturday. It was Pham’s first career walkoff homer and the fourth this season for the Cardinals. Matt Carpenter beat out an infield single before Pham hit a 2-2 pitch off Brad Boxberger (3-4) for his 17th homer of the season. The Cardinals tied it at 4 in the eighth with two runs off Tampa Bay’s bullpen. Yadier Molina’s two-out, run-scoring single in the eighth off Tommy Hunter scored Pham, and singles by Jedd Gyorko and Stephen Piscotty loaded the bases. Boxberger relieved Hunter and gave up an RBI single to Kolten Wong. Tyler Lyons (2-0) pitched the ninth to earn the win. Blake Snell pitched seven innings for the Rays, allowing two runs on four hits and three walks. Snell, who had never before faced the Cardinals, struck out the side in his last inning. He finished with seven strikeouts. Mike Leake, who was in danger of losing his spot in the rotation as the Cardinals waited until Friday to announce he would start Saturday, also went seven innings, allowing all four of his runs on three homers. Lucas Duda hit a two-out, tworun homer to center in the first to drive in Evan Longoria. Duda has three homers in 10 at-bats against Leake. Corey Dickerson notched his career-high 25th homer with two outs in the fifth, making it 3-0. Dickerson misplayed three balls

in left, but only one was called for an error. The Rays had played nine straight errorless games before the miscue. Paul DeJong got St. Louis on the board with an RBI triple in the sixth after Dickerson allowed the ball to carom past him in left. Two batters later, Molina lifted

a short ﬂy to left, and Dickerson waved his arms to indicate he couldn’t see it. Center ﬁelder Kevin Kiermaier raced over and dove, almost making the play. Molina ended up with a run-scoring double. Adeiny Hechavarria put the Rays ahead 4-2 in the seventh

when he hit an 0-2 pitch into the left ﬁeld bullpen.

TRAINER’S ROOM CARDINALS: 3B Gyorko appeared to pull a muscle as he rounded third in the eighth. He was replaced with a pinch runner. OF Pham (foot soreness) was back in the

starting lineup, hitting second. He had a pinch-hit single in the seventh inning Friday. RAYS: 2B Brad Miller was back in the starting lineup. He left Thursday’s game against Toronto with a bruised right shoulder after being hit by a pitch. He pinch-hit Friday and struck out.

Zimmer helps Tribe blank KC Chiefs plan for life without RB Ware

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

CLEVELAND — Mike Clevinger pitched six sharp innings and rookie Bradley Zimmer made a sensational catch in center field before ending Jason Hammel’s bid for a perfect game, leading the Cleveland Indians to a 4-0 win over the Kansas City Royals on Saturday night. Roberto Perez hit a two-run homer off Hammel (6-10), and Edwin Encarnacion and Carlos Santana also connected as the defending AL champions moved a season-high 16 games over .500 at 72-56. The Royals fell eight games back in the AL Central and were shut out for the second straight night. They have not scored in 25 innings. Clevinger (7-5) struck out a career-high nine and matched Hammel pitch for pitch before giving way to Cleveland’s bullpen. But if not for Zimmer’s catch , Clevinger may not have gotten past the fifth. With a runner at first and two outs, Kansas City’s Lorenzo Cain sent a drive to straightaway center that seemed destined for extra bases. But the speedy, 6-foot-5 Zimmer launched himself and fully extended his body and glove before making the grab and crash landing in the grass. When he rolled over to show the umpires he had the ball in his glove, Clevinger raised both arms over his head and applauded his teammate. Hammel was perfect for 5 1/3 innings, retiring the first 16 batters with relative ease before giving up his first hit when Zimmer grounded a 2-2 pitch through the middle. Two pitches later, Perez, Cleveland’s No. 9 hitter, connected for his third homer, a shot to left-center that barely cleared the 19-foot wall and caromed off the metal railing. One of Cleveland’s most laid-back players, Clevinger had “Sunshine” on the back of his jersey for Players Weekend. And while he was delivering a glowing performance, Hammel was even brighter for a while. The right-hander, who came in 3-0 against Cleveland this season, coasted into the sixth, going to a three-ball count just once before the Indians finally got to him with three consecutive hits producing two runs.

An inning later, Encarnacion hit Hammel’s ﬁrst pitch deep into the left-ﬁeld bleachers for his 30th homer. The slugger is the only major leaguer to hit at least 30 homers in each of the past six seasons. Santana then connected for his 19th, a shot into the lower deck in right. The Royals threatened against Clevinger in the fourth, loading the bases on a pair of singles and a twoout walk. But the right-hander got

Alcides Escobar to hit a pop ﬂy to short right that second baseman Jose Ramirez ran down for the ﬁnal out.

TRAINER’S ROOM ROYALS: LHP Danny Duffy returned to Kansas City to undergo an MRI on his sore elbow. Duffy has pitched with the condition for the past month, and while the club doesn’t think it’s anything serious, the Royals want to get him checked out.

Pats star WR Edelman out for season THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

FOXBOROUGH, Mass. — New England Patriots star wide receiver Julian Edelman will miss the 2017 season after tearing the ACL in his right knee in a preseason game. The Patriots announced Saturday that Edelman, Tom Brady’s favorite target and one of the NFL’s most clutch receivers, would be sidelined all season after the non-contact injury in the ﬁrst quarter of Friday night’s preseason game at Detroit.

The 31-year-old Edelman headed downﬁeld after a catch and when he planted his right foot into the turf, he tore the ligament. Edelman, whose spectacular fourth-quarter reception helped the Patriots’ record comeback win in the Super Bowl in February, signed a two-year contract extension earlier this year. He has been, by far, Brady’s top pass catcher with 436 receptions over the past four seasons, including the playoffs. A quarterback in college

at Kent State, Edelman joined the Patriots in 2009 and became one of Brady’s most reliable receivers the next year. Last season was one of his best with 98 catches for 1,106 yards. He’s also a dangerous punt returner. Brady used the word “Gladiator” on Instagram in reference to Edelman. Fortunately for New England, it is deep at receiver after trading for Brandin Cooks. It gets back Rob Gronkowski, the NFL’s most-feared tight end, from a back injury, and has

Chris Hogan, who emerged last year as a quality wideout. Veteran Danny Amendola ﬁgures to see time in the slot with Edelman sidelined. New England also cut defensive end Kony Ealy, whom it acquired in a trade with Carolina in March. It was a surprising move — if anything Bill Belichick does with his roster can be considered surprising. Ealy, 25, spent three seasons with the Panthers and was best known for having three sacks in Super Bowl 50 against Denver.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Chiefs coach Andy Reid floated the idea not long ago that he might keep his top four running backs when trimming the roster to 53 players next weekend. That may not be such a difficult decision now. The Chiefs could be without top running back Spencer Ware for the first portion of the season after he hurt his right knee in Friday night’s preseason game in Seattle. The initial diagnosis was a sprain but Ware was due for an MRI exam Saturday amid reports he injured one of his ligaments. If that’s the case, he could miss anywhere from several weeks to the entire season. “He gets his MRI today so I think we just have to see on it,” Reid said Saturday. “It’s not one of those things that’s clear-cut, end-of-theseason or I’d tell you. That’s not what it is.” Ware was hurt early in the Chiefs’ third preseason game, when he tried to fight for a few extra yards on a carry deep in Seattle territory. He immediately grabbed at his right knee while trainers ran onto the field, and he wound up riding a cart to the locker room.

Reid said that Ware was sore Saturday but “you have to go through the whole process here.” Regardless, he acknowledged that third-round draft pick Kareem Hunt would be ﬁrst in line to soak up carries. Hunt was poised to begin the season alongside Ware in a one-two punch while Charcandrick West and C.J. Spiller fought for playing time — and perhaps a roster spot — as the thirdstring running back. Now it appears West and Spiller will both make the team when rosters are reduced Sept. 2. “We’ve got Kareem, we’ve got Charcandrick and C.J., so I mean, we’ve always rotated guys and it will be no different in this case,” Reid said. “But (Hunt) would be the next man up, yes.” The former Toledo standout dazzled the Chiefs the moment he set foot in their practice facility. He was known for his versatility, offering both power and elusiveness as a runner, but has showcased excellent hands and a willingness to block that has already made him a favorite of quarterback Alex Smith. “Deﬁnitely for a young guy, to see him go in and not really blink with that stuff, I sometimes think that’s the hardest thing is protection,” Smith said.

Prater, Joplin Eagles earn ﬁrst win of new season BY JASON PEAKE jpeake@joplinglobe.com

Jakki Prater recorded her ﬁrst win as Joplin High School’s softball coach as the Eagles defeated Seneca 5-3 for 11th place at the 13th annual Paige Neal/Christina Freeman Tournament on Saturday morning at the Joplin Athletic Complex. “It’s so exciting,” Prater said after receiving the game ball. “It’s nice to see the girls play the way we know they can.” The win capped a long weekend that saw the Eagles go 1-4. “We got better by the end of the weekend, and that’s the most important thing,” Prater said. “We saw progress. I think we got better at something in every game.” Down 2-0, the Eagles went ahead for good with a threerun fourth inning. One run scored on an error before Jocee Weston slapped a run-scoring single into left and Grace Overman drove in a run with a groundout. A single tally in the ﬁfth gave

the Eagles a 4-2 advantage, but the Indians plated a run in the top of the sixth on Chelsea Beville’s RBI single. Joplin added an insurance run in the bottom half of the sixth on an RBI single by Lindsay Rader. Aydan Perrin earned the victory by limiting the Indians to three runs on nine hits while striking out six. A junior, Perrin also went 2-for-3 at the plate with a double and a triple, while Rader drove in two runs and Jozee Bartlett scored twice. “We came together with our bats,” Prater said. “Our bats were on all day. We managed to string some runs together and it was nice to see us play small ball.” Seneca received two hits apiece from Adron Durman, Chaney Platner and Beville. Beville was charged with the loss after allowing two earned runs on ﬁve hits with four strikeouts. Seneca coach Jeff Sill noted his young team continues to gain valuable experience.

“I thought our girls played pretty well, but we took ourselves out of a few innings,” Sill said. “Joplin did a good job of getting timely hits and making the most of our mistakes.”

EARLIER ACTION Led by a seven-run second inning, McDonald County topped Joplin 14-2 in Saturday morning’s opener. Layni Merriman and Perrin recorded Joplin’s lone hits of the game, while Taylor Clouse scored a run. Cierra Barber and Brittany Shryock pitched for the Eagles. Cloee Helm went 3-for-3 with three runs scored and two RBI for the Mustangs, while Chloe Colvin went 3-for-3 with two RBI and two runs scored. Kylie Helm drove in three runs. Kaylee Cornell earned the victory, allowing just earned run in four innings. The Mustangs went on to beat Carthage 12-0 for ninth place.

Webb City falls to Rock Bridge in Neal/Freeman title game BY JASON PEAKE jpeake@joplinglobe.com

A title game loss did nothing to dampen Shauna Friend’s spirits. Friend focused on the positives after her Webb City Cardinals suffered a 14-4 loss to Columbia Rock Bridge in the championship game of the 13th annual Paige Neal/ Christina Freeman Tournament on Saturday afternoon at the Joplin Athletic Complex. Despite the setback, Friend noted her Cardinals had a stellar weekend, going 4-1 against solid competition, highlighted by a 5-2 win over Staley in the semiﬁnals. “I’m very pleased with the weekend overall,” Friend said. “This

LIONS FROM 1B it out, and not in big doses,” Johnson said. “You try to not put too much mileage on some of these guys because it’s a long season. We can’t have anyone hurt. We can’t stand much of that.” Prior to last Saturday’s scrimmage, Johnson expressed his emotions through a preseason with a youthful group. “There’s times out there I get really optimistic, then there’s times out there I get concerned. It’s a mixed bag,” he said. After witnessing the Li-

is a confidence boost for us. That semifinal game was huge for us. The girls came out and played fantastic all-around. We put a lot of energy into that game and I think maybe we let down a little bit in the title game. But the girls never gave up. We’ll be back at it on Monday.” In the finale, Webb City found itself in an early five-run hole after the top of the first inning against the Bruins. But the Cardinals got three runs back in the bottom half on Mariah Newby’s RBI triple and Mareika Turpen’s two-run homer. Rock Bridge received a threerun homer from Alexis Burks in the second before a two-run third gave the Bruins a 10-3 cushion.

ons’ defense get the better of that scrimmage, Johnson and his staff needed to settle a quarterback battle. The next day, the decision was made — Dante Vandeven, a Southeast Missouri transfer, had won the job, beating out returners Brayden Scott and TJ Fleeton. “He’s got a presence about him,” Johnson said of Vandeven. “He can throw it, he can run. He is a threat with the ball in his hand. He’s got a natural leadership persona. He’s a humble guy and wants to be good.” “Personally, I (bring) a leadership ability,” Vandeven said early in the preseason. “I’d rather have a team full of leaders than a team full of followers.”

Webb City’s Ashley Alexander recorded an RBI single in the bottom of the third before Rock Bridge put the game away with a four-run sixth. Quincie Capron went 3-for-4 for the Cardinals, while Addie Darby and Kaia Storm had two hits apiece. Darby, Haidyn Berry and Amy Morris handled the pitching duties for the Cardinals, now 6-1 on the season. Rock Bridge (4-3) collected 16 hits, with Hanna Pate recording four and Madison White adding three. “Rock Bridge hit the ball really and we can’t take away anything from them,” Friend said. “They played solid softball.” The Bruins entered the tourney

Vandeven takes the reins of an offense that returns ﬁve starters from a year ago plus receiver Carson Day, who is back after an injury kept him out of the equation in 2016. “Carson is one of the fastest guys on our team,” Johnson said. “He’s a guy that can do something after he has it in his hands. Those yards after catch are critical.” The offensive line boasts the most experience, as senior Jarrell Jackson returns at left tackle, while juniors Mike Dzierzega and Brock Whalen return but in different spots. Dzierzega moves to center and Whalen is at right guard. Senior Josh Hadley

with an 0-2 record, but left town with the championship plaque. “It was a good team effort and everyone contributed,” Rock Bridge coach Janel Twehous said. “Hopefully this is a stepping stone for us to continue to improve. It’s a great accomplishment. There are a lot of great teams in this tournament.”

STALEY WIN Webb City led 2-1 in the fourth when Darby launched a two-run home run to center. The Falcons pushed across a run in the ﬁfth, but the Cardinals added a late insurance run in the sixth when Ali Vanzant drove in a run with a squeeze bunt. A ﬁnal exclamation point came

returns at running back, sophomore Josiah Bennett could play at tight end and wide receiver and Day returns in the slot position. Bennett had a successful freshman campaign, catching 20 passes for 470 yards and ﬁve touchdowns. The Odessa, Missouri, product averaged 23.5 yards per catch. Expected to see time at receiver are senior transfers Eric Dedrick Jr. (Pima CC) and Kene Anigbogu (Minnesota-Mankato), and senior Donavan Carter. “We wanted to get a little help a receiver,” Johnson said. “We thought we needed a little length and speed at receiver. I think we’ve helped ourselves there.”

In the circle, Darby did not allow an earned run in four innings while striking out ﬁve, while Morris gave up one run in three innings. After a date in Rogers, Arkansas on Monday against Providence Academy, Webb City is at Joplin at 4:30 on Tuesday.

NOTES Staley defeated Park Hill South 13-8 for third-place, while Blue Springs beat Nevada 14-2 for ﬁfth and Neosho knocked off Carl Junction 9-3 for seventh.

Junior defensive lineman Trevor Plafcan, who recorded 50 tackles last season, is one of ﬁve returning players on defense. Senior defensive tackle Chris Williams is also a returning starter. “He’s a kid that has great effort,” Johnson said. “I consider him a team captain. The attitude, the work ethic, he’s kind of what you wish they all were as far as his demeanor and he goes about his business.” “The starters will be older guys, but our depth is going to be young,” Plafcan said at the conference media day. “So being able to lead them and catch them up to the speed of the game is going to be important.”

Senior EJ McKenzie is the lone linebacker returning and sophomores Alexander Wade (free safety) and Keith Beverly (cornerback), who both started as freshmen a year ago, are back in a youthful secondary. Deshon Cowling, also a sophomore, is the projected starter at strong safety. Kicker Brock Renken is back for his senior campaign, and he’ll be busier this season. The Joplin product has been tabbed the punter this season. Bennett will be the long snapper for a second straight season. The Lions open the season at home Thursday night against Fort Hays State.

The worst of hunting season With me, dove season is a hohum affair, which I find myself a little ashamed to be a part of. And yet every year I find myself being a part of it anyway. When I am out there in the weeds sweating over a little patch of sunflowers, having wasted more shells than I care to think about, I keep thinking about how good the fishing is on some Ozark river and how cool the water is. It isn’t that I do not respect the morning dove. As a game bird, he is beyond reproach, responsible for the sale of more shotgun shells than the quail, the pheasant or the mallard. If you get a good platter of doves on your table baked in some kind of gravy or fresh from a crockpot with mushroom and celery soup, and you can keep it all to yourself, you’ll have a meal right up there with any wild game dish. But you’ll need to see to it that there aren’t many hungry people at your house, or you won’t get enough. Doves are small. That small size is part of why so many shells are fired by so many hunters to acquire so few of them. Of course, us grizzled old veteran outdoorsmen don’t have so much trouble hitting doves, but there

aren’t many of us who are top-flight shotgunners. The fact that I so often shoot so poorly in a dove field is something that makes me like to fish more than dove hunt. Dove season atLARRY tracts a lot of new DABLEMONT hunters. The farther south you go, the Columnist more it becomes a social event with numbers of hunters joining to hunt grain fields where doves congregate. It’s so easy that fathers take their kids out to hunt doves years before the kids can hit a can on a fence post. You don’t need much — shells, shotgun and a bucket to sit on. And water, be sure you have water for everyone. If you take your hunting dog into a dove field, be sure that there is water for your retriever. As much as doves are used to introduce kids to hunting, they are used to introduce young retrievers to hunting as well. Show me a hunting Labrador that hasn’t choked on dove feathers long before he has picked up a duck. If you have much love for your dog,

take some water for him. Another answer to the water problem is hunting over waterholes in the evenings. That’s what I enjoy more than grainﬁeld hunting. By evening, most dove hunters have gone home and won’t hunt again ‘til next September. It is a fact that probably 90 percent of all dove hunters will hunt only the opening weekend for doves and not again the entire season. Only a small percentage of dove hunters hunt water holes in the evening, and it is one of my favorite ways to hunt. Doves come to small ponds, which have an open, clean bank, or sometimes lake points of similar description to drink water before ﬂying up to roost. I have trained many a young Labrador over water holes, giving them plenty of water to keep them quenched and cool. Sometimes there is excellent dove hunting in the last half of the season because early in September, so many doves remain up north. At times in October I have seen up to 100 doves watering at a small pond on my place, with some roost trees nearby that they use as a migration stopover. And as you read this, I am al-

ready looking forward to the teal season in mid-September. And a flock of teal makes doves look like dickey birds when it comes to flying. They are little rockets, gone before they even get there. Surprisingly, I am just as inefficient at hitting teal as I am at hitting doves. But my Labrador, Lightnin’ Ridge Bolt, likes teal hunting far better than dove hunting. Bolt descends from ol’Rambunctious, my first chocolate Labrador from nearly 50 years ago. And I now have two chocolate puppies in the kennel that have that same great hunting dog lineage. They are a little too young to be out there right now. I will keep one and train it to hunt this winter but the other one will go to a new home sometime soon, and I hope it is to the home of a hunter, maybe someone who’ll take it duck hunting this winter. Maybe that little pup will be lucky enough to never see a dove field in the heat of September.

Roger Federer hits to Alexander Zverev during the ﬁnal of the Rogers Cup tennis tournament last Sunday in Montreal.

Federer says 3rd major of year would be surreal THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NEW YORK — Even Roger Federer finds it all a little surprising. After going 4½ years without collecting a major championship, now firmly in his mid-30s, he heads into Monday’s start of the U.S. Open with a chance to win his third such trophy of 2017. “I mean, I have a hard time thinking I could win three Slams in one year. It just sounds totally surreal to me,” Federer said in an interview with The Associated Press. “But I’ll prepare myself the best way possible, so that I will have the best chance to really excel there in New York.” Yes, Federer is most certainly back. All the way back. He’s back in the field at Flushing Meadows after sitting out the hard-court tournament a year ago while taking off the last half of the season to let his surgically repaired left knee heal. And he’s back in the role of Grand Slam title favorite after winning the past two majors he entered, the Australian Open in January and Wimbledon in July.

Is he playing as well as — or perhaps better than — ever? “I don’t know. It’s hard to tell. It doesn’t really matter to me. I would hope that I’m a better player today, just (by) virtue of time that’s gone by and I’ve had time to practice and train and all that stuff,” he said with a sigh. “But better? In a way I would hope so.” Federer turned 36 on Aug. 8, making him older than all but two men to have ever won the most important tennis tournament held in the United States, an event ﬁrst held in 1881. He will be facing a depleted draw in New York as he seeks his ﬁrst title there in nearly a decade . Three-time major champion Andy Murray , recently replaced at No. 1 by Rafael Nadal, withdrew Saturday because of a sore hip. Reigning U.S. Open champion Stan Wawrinka, who had knee surgery, and 2016 runner-up Novak Djokovic , whose right elbow is injured, are out for the rest of the season. So is 2014 runner-up Kei Nishikori, because of a hurt wrist. Last year’s Wimbledon

runner-up, Milos Raonic, withdrew from the U.S. Open because of an injured left wrist. Wawrinka, Djokovic and Nishikori are following Federer’s example — and Murray said he will consider doing the same. Skipping the Rio de Janeiro Olympics, the U.S. Open and other tournaments allowed Federer to return to the ATP Tour refreshed and reinvigorated, not to mention fully ﬁt. The payoff? He is 35-3 with ﬁve titles this season. “The long break last year really helped him. He (went) a little bit away and looked at everything from the outside again. It gives you a little bit of distance,” said Severin Luthi, one of Federer’s coaches. “In general, I know with him that if he takes a break and if he’s fresh, happy to play, motivated ... that’s one of his biggest strengths.” The day before claiming his eighth Wimbledon championship and 19th at a major overall — both records for a man — Federer sat down with Luthi to discuss preparation for the U.S. Open.

from the Brooklyn Nets to Cleveland. ESPN reported Friday night that the Cavaliers are “considering possible ramifications” after Thomas took his physical. According to the NBA’s collective bargaining agreement, a trade can be voided if a player fails his physical. The Cavaliers and Celtics have until Wednesday to finalize the trade, pending the completion of physicals. It’s common practice for teams to perform comprehensive medical exams on players with prior medical issues, and the Cavs were well aware of Thomas’ history. If Cleveland isn’t satisfied with its findings on Thomas, the club could scrap the trade. That seems unlikely,

however, because the threetime defending conference champions were determined to deal Irving before training camp, and the Cavaliers coveted a high draft pick they can use to acquire another star next season or select a top-tier talent in the draft. The Cavs could also request the Celtics alter the trade by giving them another player or pick. This is all new ground for general manager Koby Altman, who has only been on the job full-time since mid-July. He was promoted after former GM David Grifﬁn left the team not long after Cleveland’s loss to Golden State in the Finals. The 34-year-old Altman has inherited a talented team, but also one that

has had a tumultuous few months and could potentially lose superstar LeBron James next summer if the game’s best all-around player decides to opt out of his contract and hit the freeagent market. James left Cleveland in 2010 to play in Miami, where he won two titles. In the short term, Altman’s main concern is completing the deal for Thomas, who has blossomed into one of the league’s premiere playmakers in the past few seasons. The 28-year-old, who endeared himself to fans in Boston and across the country by playing in the postseason following his sister’s death, has been rehabbing the hip he initially hurt in March.

Congrats to Twin Hills, Joplin cup teams Kudos to Twin Hills pro Doug Adams and his golf committee as well as Joplin’s Horton Smith and Ky Laffoon Cup teams. Adams oversaw the makeover of the 63-yearold Twin Hills Invitational from an individual stroke play event into a two-man team championship that gives promise of better things ahead. I loved the format of the Invitational, but it was cut from the same fabric as the BriarCLAIR brook Invitational and GOODWIN the Ozark Amateur Columnist at Schifferdecker Municipal Golf Course. The new format gives the Invitational a new look and a completely new identity. I suspect that players will embrace it and, although I don’t completely fathom the scoring formula, those that need to know do. Club officials clearly think the new format is not only workable but a breath of fresh air for their classic. I suspect most players will feel the same way. Regardless, you have to applaud the attempt to revitalize a staple on the Joplin golf calendar. The Joplin Horton Smith and Ky Laffoon teams retained for the second straight year the Smith and Laffoon cups, which reflect the long-standing, friendly golf rivalry between Joplin and Springfield. The matches began in 1930 and have been played annually with the exception of the World War II years. Springfield, with a much larger pool of players from which to select its teams, has won more of the annual matches than Joplin, but the competition has always been fierce and friendly. We hope this tradition goes on and on.

Improved defense key for Gorillas' upcoming season PSU Gorillas

BY LUCAS DAVIS ldavis@joplinglobe.com

PITTSBURG, Kan. — After going 7-4 last sea son, Pittsburg State head coach Tim Beck and his staff went into the offseason with several ideas on how to improve the team. One of the top priorities was getting better results from the defensive side of the ball. “We played some good defense at times (last season), but we gave up too many big plays,” Beck said. “We have to play better team defense. We don’t have any one guy who is going to be a first-team All-American right now, but we do have a lot of good players.” Beck went on to explain that he wants to see more pressure on the quarterback and better production out of the secondary against the pass. Last season the Gorilla de fense allowed an average of 319 yards a game through the air, most in the MIAA, and gave up the fourth-most passing touchdowns (26). PSU finished sixth in team sacks, accumulating 23 in 11 games. “One goes in hand with the other,” Beck said. “We are hoping that even though there is a little inexperience on the defense, we have enough talented men that we’ll gain some quick expe rience and be ready to go.” The Gorillas’ defensive line is emphasized as a major strength by both coaches and players. The depth of talent Pittsburg State has up front allows for a rotation to keep fresh bodies on the field at all times. “We have eight or 10 guys who are go ing to be good on the defensive line,” Beck said. “Some of them don’t have experience yet, but we feel like we have a lot of good players there.” One of the players the PSU coaching staff is expecting a big year from is sophomore defensive tackle Simanu’a Thomas, an all-conference player who finished last season with 37 total tack les —8.5 going for a loss—four sacks and one forced fumble as a true fresh man. Beck also expects strong sea sons from a pair of young defensive ends — sophomore Ned Bingaman and redshirt freshman Levi Wyrick, who came into the program as a quar terback before moving to the defensive side of the ball. The secondary, mainly the cornerback position, is the biggest question mark heading into the season, according to Beck. Sophomore Keeyon Incle is projected as a starter, while redshirt junior Juante Bald win figures to start on the opposite side. The Gorillas return junior safety Darian Taylor and sophomore safety Creighton Sanders. Beck

Nate Dreiling, Ryan Hellwig, Matt Karleskint, Luke Miller, John Pierce, Carl Roth, Steve Wells Lettermen: 43 returning, 20 lost Base offense: Pistol Base defense: 4-2-5 mentioned he was pleased with the work Taylor, the secondary’s leader, put in over the offseason, coming into camp in the tremendous shape. The PSU linebackers are led by senior Ethan Fugitt and junior Demetrius Bernard. Junior Carter Anchors, the team’s punter, also figures to see plenty of action at linebacker as well. GORILLA OFFENSE Pittsburg State returns nine starters from last years unit that led the MIAA in total offense (481.6 yards) and was second in scoring (40.4 points). Junior John Roderique is back for his third season as the starting quarterback. He com pleted 173-of-295 passes for 2,496 yards, 19 touch downs and nine interceptions in nine games last season. Roderique added 318 yards and four scores on the ground. “He has a tremendous understanding of what we are trying to do,” Beck said. “He is a guy that loves to compete, so it will be fun to watch him get out there and play like he can.” Senior Michael Rose returns as the lead horse in a backfield that could see as many as five regular ball carriers. A former walk-on, Rose started seven games last season and rushed for 584 yards and seven touchdowns on 112 carries. He added 141 yards and a touchdown as a pass catcher. Senior wideout Austin Panko headlines the Gorillas’ receiving corps after catching 27 passes for 518 yards and three touchdowns last season. Sophomores Brenner Clemons, who had 559 yards and four touchdowns as the MIAA Freshman of the Year last season, and Lorenzo West return to fill out the position. PSU’s offensive line figures to be a major strength, as senior center Bo Farrow, a three time all-conference player, and senior left tackle Codey Funk, a second-team MIAA performer last season, anchor the experienced group. Sophomore Jared Vincent will be the team’s placekicker this season. Pittsburg State opens the season with a 7 p.m. road game against Central Missouri on Thursday.

As a teen, my fashion bible was Seventeen magazine. If the models were wearing green fishnet tights that fall, then I craved that algae-legged look. If they’d worn fishnets over their faces, I would have taken the bait and bagged my face, too. MARTI Thank ATTOUN goodness, my fashion and Columnist beauty picks today are simple and practical. If it’s clean, I wear it. If it’s almost clean, then I add another layer of deodorant and still wear it. Therefore, I have no desire to follow the latest trend of pointed fairy ears. I don’t mind a little pixie dust sprinkled around me before I head out to buy a Powerball ticket, but I have no desire to surgically reshape my ears so that I look like a woodland fairy or elf. Some fairy folk are happy wearing fake latex ears, but others are going all the way and spending thousands of dollars to surgically modify the tops of their ears into peaks so that they look like Tinker Bell or Dr. Spock, for that matter. Tink is cute, as are pointy-eared mischievous Christmas elves, but not worth the dollars and earache to achieve that socalled beauty look. I still shudder as I recall my one ear surgery and the vision of my sister Rosie gleefully approaching with an ice pick to give me a free ear piercing. Mercifully, she fished an ice cube from her tea glass and numbed my earlobes first. In retrospect, the mall professional piercer was probably a bargain at $8.99. I still have nightmares, and the holes have been sealed for decades. I seldom used my pierced earlobes to their full potential, anyway, as mini canvasses for displaying gems and jewels. As with most trends, fairy ears that are as perky and pointy as a chihuahua’s will pass. But unlike other trends, such as tattoos that can be

St. Louis Cardinals’ ‘Rally Cat’ causes public controversy Have you guys heard about the Rally Cat? If you’re a St. Louis Cardinals fan like myself or a fan of the sport, you most certainly have. But even if you ﬁnd America’s pastime as boring as a lecture, there’s a good chance you’ve still heard a few details about this rather strange and surreal tale surrounding a game-winning grand slam, a baseball franchise, a nonproﬁt animal outreach and a classic tabby kitten that has since been dubbed “Rally Cat.” During a game on Aug. 9, when the Cardinals were struggling to climb above .500 against the visiting Kansas City Royals, a cute cat suddenly found itself scurrying

out toward center field, much to the capacity crowd’s delight. After giving Royals’ center fielder Lorenzo Cain a wide berth, the kitten was caught near the wall by St. Louis KEVIN groundskeeper LuMcCLINTOCK cas Hackmann. He scooped up the cat and high-tailed him Columnist off the field, all the while grimacing from pain as the terrified kitten went to work with fangs and claws on the poor guy’s hands and arms. Less than a minute later, future

Hall of Fame inductee Yadier Molina smashed a breaking ball that didn’t quite break for a bases-loaded home run that would help the Cardinals eventually win the game. Thus, the “Rally Cat” was born, as if the cat had somehow helped Molina swat his timely grand salami. But Cardinal fans can be a rather superstitious lot. After all, these were the same fans who gave the name “Rally Squirrel” to an American gray squirrel after it dashed across home plate at Busch Stadium in 2011 during a playoff game against the Philadelphia Phillies. Well, as you can imagine, every

TV news channel stumbled over itself to be the ﬁrst to air the video of the kitten’s scamper across the baseball diamond. Highlights made the nightly national news, thousands of memes were ushered into existence and Busch Stadium employees were ﬂooded with requests from pet lovers dying to adopt the little rascal. But it’s here where things in St. Louis morphed into something straight out of a “Stranger Things” episode. See, the beloved Rally Cat couldn’t be found. Hackmann said he set the cat down to get treatment for the bloody bites and scratches marring his forearms.

During this time, a Cardinal fan, Korie Harris, lied to the gate guards at the stadium, telling them that Rally Cat was, in fact, her cat. The guards shrugged and handed him over to her, and she motored away from the stadium. But a few miles down the road, inexplicably, Rally Cat escaped the woman’s car. As this was going on, journalists in the club house were anxiously awaiting the game’s hero during post-game interviews. No, not Molina, but rather the Rally Cat. But the kitten was an embarrassing no-show.

Siblings parenting each other never works — or does it? I was exhausted. The emotional drains of the past few weeks coupled with normal back-to-school requirements had left me dragging around the house one evening, unable to focus or commit. I needed to start some laundry but didn’t. There were some chores I could remind the kids about but wouldn’t. Dinner really needed to happen soon but couldn’t. The evening was frittered away in what I considered to be a much-needed reprieve. Down time is important to maintain a certain level of stability, I told myself, kicking my feet up to economize energy. The idea of hypothermia came to mind, strangely: When a body is exposed to extreme cold for too long, the blood vessels on surfaces and extremities contract, forcing all the blood into the trunk, thereby preserving the vital organs. Only the most important functions continue. From where I sat on the couch, I felt like conservation mode had kicked in. The week had been too long (and it was only half ﬁnished), so my will to parent had retreated. I barely even noticed the familial moods and attitudes swirling in my peripheral view, and the normal workings of the house didn’t concern me. My

attention to emotional logistics had ﬂed, leaving only my vital functions in tact: If a ﬁre broke out, I’d hopto, but until then, it was crickets from me. SARAH Too bad my 5-year-old didn’t COYNE know about my hypothermia/conColumnist servation plan. Almost as if the week had been a long one for him, too, he was a grump. His complaintive whines rose to the ceiling like smoke and gathered there waiting for me to fan them away. He pestered his sisters, he pestered the dogs, he wanted my ice water. He wanted a snack, probably because the time for dinner had come and gone without food appearing before him. In short, he was a mess. Only, as I was in conservation mode, none of it stuck to me. Having committed so fully to my nonparenting moments, I’d also lost the ability to notice that something very bad was brewing. I wish I had an example of exactly what he said next, but my ears must’ve landed in the nonvital category when I pulled back all my resources. It took my daugh-

ter’s unexpected pronouncement to snap me back into awareness. Predictably, she had her nose in a book, and, barely looking up from the page, she spoke. “Bub, you have been super rude to mommy all afternoon. You need to speak nicely and change your attitude.” I blinked. A small portion of blood began to ﬂow back to my brain, and I sat up. Usually, when one of my kids tries to do some on-the-ﬂy parenting, I step right in and stop it. They’re almost always correct in what the other child should be doing, but I’ve heard the importance of not allowing — or making — a child discipline a sibling. In the interest of not fostering sibling rivalry, it’s important to me that my kids get to be sidekicks and teammates rather than overlords and underlings. I don’t want that distillation of duties to lead to a lifelong expectation or an accidental way to sink into a role none of them chose. I don’t want my oldest to feel responsible for my youngest or my middle child to feel beholden to one and like a watchdog for the other or my youngest to feel piled on from all sides. In the past, I’ve usually looked at my scolding kid and said, “I’m glad you know the right way, but this is my job to handle. You just

make sure you’re behaving correctly.” I stand by those words as useful, maybe even important. Often, one of my kids tries to parent another in the hopes of getting that one in trouble. Or maybe it’s not as simple as that. Maybe it’s that, in pointing out the ﬂaws of another, the speaker feels pristine by comparison. The feeling of being even a tiny bit better than another — especially better than a sibling who steals part of a parent’s heart with undue frequency — is sort of addictive. Not allowing siblings to parent each another is one way of not feeding that addiction. But as I sat letting my parenting systems reboot, I wondered what to think now. My daughter had been calm and reasonable. She had spoken with clear, patient authority and probably done so only after noticing that the parent in the room wasn’t all there. What’s more, my son underwent a small but noticeable change. He pouted at her and then looked at me with something like apology in his eyes. Sure, when I point out rudeness or shortness, he barely notices; but when his big, beautiful, sweet sister points it out? Her words hit a target, even if they’re the exact same words I, myself, would have used.

County works to solve decades-old cold cases BY IAN CUMMINGS AND KELSEY RYAN The Kansas City Star

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — A skeleton wearing a Doobie Brothers T-shirt found behind a West Bottoms warehouse in 1989. The body of a man in his 40s, tangled in the branches of a tree in 1995. A man’s bones discovered in the sewer by city workers in 1998. These are just a few of the 22 unidentified bodies that the Jackson County Medical Examiner’s office recently began trying to identify as part of a new undertaking with the Kansas City Police Department Missing Persons Unit. They’re the oldest, coldest cases in Jackson County. No one knows who they were or, in some cases, how they died. Spurred by a determined investigator’s unexpected break in one local case last year, the Jackson County medical examiner and the police are now pulling boxes of bones out of the basement and going over decades-old files, searching for any missed clues. But the chances of solving these decades-old mysteries are slim. The dead met their end by suicide, accident, and in at least one case, homicide. For some, the cause of death remains unknown. Until they are named, they remain open cases for the chief medical examiner, Diane Peterson. Peterson said her office has a duty to the dead person — and that person’s family — to find an answer. It hasn’t been easy. When Peterson and her team began meeting twice a month with the Police Department’s missing persons supervisor, Sgt. Ben Caldwell, they started with the oldest cases, which dated back to the early 1980s. “That got a little bit frustrating in the beginning,” Peterson said. “The files are very thin from the ‘80s and ‘90s.” The files don’t have many photographs from the scenes. And most of the investigators who worked on them at the time have since

CAT FROM 1C Cardinals officials could only grin sheepishly and release a statement saying that Rally Cat had been lost. They promptly asked the public to find the cat so the team could “properly care for it.” Now the worm really turns here and seemingly enters the realm of fiction. Volunteer members from the nonprofit rescue St. Louis Feral Cat Outreach managed to corner and capture Rally Cat at 3:45 a.m. the following morning — taking it back to their shelter for safekeeping. They later released a state-

retired or moved on. Still, the group is pressing ahead, taking one case at a time and asking: What do we know? What still needs to be done? Were all the leads followed? More than 40,000 unidentified human remains are stored in medical examiners’ offices nationwide. Every year, those offices handle about 4,400 unidentified cases, 1,000 of which remain unidentified after a year, according to the Bureau of Justice Statistics. So far, Peterson’s office has eliminated at least a half-dozen of the unidentified cases as being anatomical specimens or historical artifacts of no investigative significance. For instance, one was a skeleton a doctor had purchased in India for his son, a medical student. That skeleton was found in a Nike gym bag in the crawl space of a house. Another was an old skull found in an attic. But no foul play is suspected there. The team has focused on seven bodies, found over the years by hikers, mushroom hunters, city workers and fishermen, whose stories have yet to be told. The new effort to identify the bodies was inspired by the mystery of a skeleton in a closet — a mystery solved after four years by a particularly dogged investigator in the medical examiner’s office. The charred bones had been found 10 weeks after a fire gutted a vacant house on Wabash Avenue on Jan. 2, 2012. Investigators con-

cluded the bones belonged to a homeless man who had taken shelter in the house and started a fire for warmth. Investigators think that when the fire got out of control, the man took refuge in the closet but died, likely from smoke inhalation. No identification was found with the body. An anthropologist consulted on the case concluded the man had been African-American, close to 5 feet, 9 inches tall, and between 54 and 65 years old. He remained unidentified for four years, the oldest active case at the medical examiner’s office until a new investigator with a background in anthropology, Adam Wilcoxen, got bored on a graveyard shift and started asking questions. “Skeletal Remains, Unidentified.” had topped the morgue status board for four years, and Wilcoxen wanted to change that. “The fact that it was a skeleton was enough to pique my interest,” Wilcoxen said. “Once I started learning the details of the case, I was even more interested.” The key to the mystery proved to be a metal surgical plate attached to the man’s jawbone. The initial investigation showed two of those plates had been shipped from the manufacturer to Truman Medical Center. Following up on the case in 2016, Wilcoxen called Truman but was told the plate couldn’t be matched to a patient in their records

ment telling the world that Rally Cat had been found and was, indeed, safe and secure. According to the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, the Cardinal brass reached out to the shelter, asking them to return the kitten to them, with plans to make the kitten a pseudo “26th player” on the team. After all, stated a later Cardinals press release, Rally Cat had used “cat-titude and cathleticism” to scratch and claw its way “into the hearts of Cardinal Nation.” But something unexpected happened, something the Cardinals organization hadn’t anticipated. The rescue group said no. Ofﬁcials with the outreach said they had received “thousands of inqui-

ries from throughout the region” and that their No. 1 overall concern was to ﬁnd a good and loving home for the sweet little guy. The baseball team’s vice president of communications, Ron Watermon, said otherwise, pointing out to members of the media that the St. Louis Feral Cat Outreach had already “assured us they will be returning our cat to us after a mandatory 10-day quarantine period.” Apparently the use of the possessive pronoun “our” didn’t sit too well with members of the nonproﬁt outreach, and again they rebuffed the Cardinals attempt to win custody over the kitten, calling Watermon’s statement “totally false” and that the

— it didn’t bear a unique serial number. He put the case on the back burner but didn’t give up. One day, when he was at Truman picking up dental records for another case, he took the opportunity to ask around, face-to-face, about the skeleton with the jawbone plate. Eventually, Truman’s chairman of oral maxillofacial surgery took a look at the information and gave Wilcoxen a short list of names. One by one, Wilcoxen eliminated the names — one patient had a plate on the wrong side, one had two plates, one man had died years earlier. Then Wilcoxen came to the last man on the list, who was David J. Stevenson of Kansas City. Medical records showed Stevenson had a plate implanted in his jaw in October 2003. The location matched, but the records included no X-rays or scans to make a firm identification. Wilcoxen checked into Stevenson’s background and found that Stevenson had been homeless and had struggled with drugs and alcohol. His jaw had been broken for months before he went to the hospital, and he refused to tell doctors how he suffered the injury. Knowing that most homeless people seek treatment at Truman or at Research Medical Center, Wilcoxen called Research. The hospital told him they had treated Stevenson on another occasion, just months before his death, and still had his CT scans. The scans showed the plate, the missing teeth, the cap on an upper tooth — all matching the skeleton in the closet. A forensic dentist in Nebraska made the identification official. “It was just the final piece to the puzzle,” Wilcoxen said. With some more detective work, Wilcoxen and another investigator tracked down Stevenson’s brother. The family gave the medical examiner permission to keep Stevenson’s skeleton for use in educating future investigators.

SEE CASES, 4C shelter hadn’t “committed anything to the Cardinals.” The shelter went on to say: “It seems inconsistent with ‘The Cardinal Way’ to make such false statements.” Ouch. The nonproﬁt even hired an attorney, Al Watkins, to represent it and Rally Cat in this ongoing and very public dispute. By now, the public was chiming in, and an overwhelming majority of them were siding with the nonproﬁt animal shelter. Wrote Fred Houska in a Post-Dispatch letter to the editor, the cat “should have a normal household with people and surroundings it can relate to, not a noisy clubhouse with scores of people coming and going at all hours and a place that

That’s another thing. Recalling my daughter’s two short sentences made me feel like I was hearing a recording of myself. From her precise verbiage, to her even tone, to that last parting shot about a change of attitude: Those were my words. Have I not been speaking into a vacuum all these years, after all? Has something settled into the formative parts of my kid’s personality about the right way to treat people? I guess I needed to re-notice that one size never ﬁts all, not in parenting, not in life, a thing you would think I know by now. I decided to continue using my “it’s not your job to parent” spiel but maybe not unanimously, maybe not without careful consideration. And certainly not when my kid beats me at my own game. After a handful of seconds processing the situation, I decided to let it ride. I got up off the couch and forced myself into parenting again, starting with some dedicated attention to my boy, followed by nothing serious for dinner. Hugs and simple food will solve most of the world’s problems, anyway.

TIME FROM 1C “quality militaria, knives, swords and Native America artifacts.” “I’ve looked, I’ve hunted, I’ve found pieces myself; I’ve been to shows where I’ve traded for or bought pieces,” said Triplett. Triplett founded Circle T Collectibles after retiring as a human resources director. But this isn’t a recent hobby for him. “I’ve done this all my life as a sideline,” Triplett said. Triplett would often spend his summers on his grandparents’ farm in Illinois, which greatly influenced his future endeavor. The profound interest in Native American artifacts derived from his grandfather. As Triplett explained, most farmers in that day didn’t pay much attention to Native American arrowheads. They were too busy attending to the farm’s sun-up to sundown business. Triplett’s grandfather was different, however. He picked up stray arrowheads and kept them safely inside an old tobacco tin. One day, Triplett’s grandfather handed his grandson the tin, and that ignited both his collection and interest in Native American artifacts. On top of that, many of Triplett’s family members were veterans of World War II and Vietnam. Naturally, a deep sense of patriotism, an appreciation of history as well as a collection of military gear and appeal found its way into his store’s collection. Triplett’s store has no shortage of knives and guns. Triplett recalled that he grew up around these weapons on the farm and that it was simply expected of him to become a skilled outdoorsman. So he became very familiar, at a young age, with firearms. In combination with an interest in the military, Triplett has a unique knowledge of weapons, their country of origin and how they operate. What’s most impressive about Triplett’s career is not even open part of the year.” Saying that the most important matter stemming from this public kerfuffle was the health and welfare of the kitten, Watkins allegedly had a phone conversation earlier this week with Cardinals president Bill DeWitt III. According to www.river fronttimes.com, the meeting didn’t go so well, with the shelter again refusing to hand over Rally Cat to the ball club. On Thursday, the Post-Dispatch announced a conclusion to this rather strange and sad saga: The Cardinals would not be getting Rally Cat as their new mascot. After careful vetting, Rally Cat will eventually be adopted out to a

is that this is simply his “retirement” job. Triplett worked as a human resources manager for more than 40 years, but during that entire time, he continued buying, trading and selling merchandise as far away as Chicago and New York City. After moving to the Carl Junction area and retiring, he opened Circle T to pursue his passion of collectibles full time. He also said that it was a great way to give back to the community that had given much to him. “Circle T Collectibles draws a steady stream of shoppers to downtown Carl Junction. Their reputation makes them a destination spot for military and historical artifacts,” said Gary Stubblefield, executive director for the Carl Junction Area Chamber of Commerce. “Trip knows a little something about just about everything, which makes visiting with him part of the draw. “Up and beyond Trip’s expertise and honest business practices,” Stubblefield continued, “he’s just a super nice guy.” Aside from being a member of the Carl Junction Chamber, Triplett also provides discounts to veterans. He has also given lessons concerning Native American artifacts and historical events to schools in Carl Junction, Joplin and Pittsburg, Kansas. This ties in with one of the most satisfying parts of owning his shop. Triplett said children will come into his store with the same wonder he had as a child, and he always lets them know that if they have any questions about any of his merchandise, he has an answer waiting for them. Triplett said his father always wanted him to become a teacher in his professional career before he died because “they can’t take your education away from you.” And though Triplett would go on to study business in college, he has become a teacher to many of those interested in all that his store has to offer. That’s something that can’t be taken away. loving St. Louis family at some point in the future. Still, there doesn’t seem to be any lingering animosity between the two groups. The Cardinals still plan to honor the kitten with a “Rally Cat Appreciation Day” set for Sunday, Sept. 10. Money from ticket sales will go to St. Louis animal shelters as well as Tony LaRussa’s Animal Rescue Foundation. Fans who buy a “theme ticket” will receive a Rally Cat T-shirt. “We wish them well and truly hope the cat finds a good home and continues to bring us good luck,” Watermon said.

LIFE

Book chronicles rise of soccer fandom in America From as far back as I can remember, the allure of soccer has been hard for me to withstand. While I consider myself to be a fan of sports in general, certain games seem to transcend the monotony of all the rest. For me, soccer ﬁts into that category. Thus, it was somewhat natural and logical when I recently picked up PHIL WEST’S documentation of the premiere U.S. soccer league (i.e., the MLS), “THE UNITED STATES OF SOCCER: MLS AND THE RISE OF AMERICAN SOCCER FANDOM.” West makes a considerable contribution to the somewhat scarce amount of information concerning soccer and the fans who support it here in the U.S. In large part, this is because of West’s outstanding credentials as a soccer journalist and his outspoken commitment to the propagation of the sport. In other words, his professional background deﬁnitely helps to push the agenda of this writing. Yet in addition to this, West’s credit as a fan

places a lot of stock into the worth of this book as well. Many times a reader can ﬁnd himself being ushered into DEREK a story that MOSER is dictated not by a journalist Columnist covering the minutia of a required story but rather by a fan living out a desirable experience — it just so happens that this fan has the credentials and talent that allow him to document those experiences for the world to access. For me, this is one of the most enjoyable components of this text, as it allows me to share in the wonder and awe that the sport has to offer via the experiences of an avid watcher. At the center of West’s treatment of the MLS and its fan base is what he identiﬁes as the culminating event that resulted in the formation of the league. Gundry (Harper Wave)

This event is what West labels “the promise.” In 1988, the Federation Internationale de Football agreed to allow the 1994 World Cup to be hosted by the United States. However, there was one major stipulation required in order for this to happen — the U.S. needed to develop a top tier soccer league. A major hindrance to this was the recent demise of the North American Soccer League. As the most successful league in American history was making its exit, the idea of a prominent premiere league in the U.S. seemed doubtful. Yet, the “United States of Soccer” is a record of the story that somehow broke through the doubt, resulting in the modern-day incarnation of such a league. While America has a long way to go before being able to stand toe to toe with international powerhouses in the sport, the MLS has turned into a competitive league while creating an environment that supports avid fan bases.

JOPLIN BOOKS

West takes the reader on a somewhat chronological timeline of the major events and ﬁgures that contribute to the league’s formation and history. While there is an order to the events and circumstances surrounding this soccer league, West also takes liberty to interject the impact that these events have on current trends in the sport. So while it is a chronological telling of the history, it also jumps around a bit in terms of voice and narrative. Part of this is because of the overwhelming amount of information provided. I will make note, however, that while much information is provided, West seems to deliver it well, as he disregards jargon often associated with the sport and uses a vernacular that is easy to comprehend for the layperson. A strength behind this work is West’s ability to present a story. The stories in this book are truly what make it such a delightful read. In every page, there is a narrative that leads to

the next. Again, this makes for an easy read and for the most part an enjoyable one. Major figures in sports (such as Lamar Hunt) show their faces in many of these stories, allowing individuals with little to no interest in the sport to find some kind of resonance with the contents. In addition to this, all of the prominent figures working behind the scenes and in front of the cameras during the building of this league make their appearance as well. This was another delightful aspect of the book, as West provides stories that are relatively unknown to the common fan (or outsider) about figures with whom they are familiar. One such story centers around prolific winger/ forward Landon Donovan. While many fans are aware of the name, many may be unaware that he made his MLS debut the same year the league almost folded (2001). Surrounded by the turmoil of 9/11, the over-

whelming consensus in the league was one of fear and dread. Yet, through a series of events, the league withstood and eventually expanded. Additionally, ﬁgures such as Donovan proved that Americans can take a place on the international stage as well. West does well to provide his readers with a lot of inside information. Loaded with ample amounts of research and experience, West crafts a genuine and authentic piece of work that truly does give voice to a growing tradition in American sports. As stated before, no one reading this book will be disillusioned after reading it. Readers will maintain awareness of the long road that lies ahead of the sport and its fan base in the U.S. Yet, I believe that soccer fans, as well as “not-yet soccer fans” can ﬁnd some valuable entertainment in this easy and quick read.

Genealogical workshops abound this time of year The fall season is an ideal time to attend genealogical workshops and conferences with friends. Cool weather and fall foliage make such trips an extra delight. Because the speakers and displays are always interesting, you are sure to learn useful information and techniques. This area is fortunate that the Ozarks Genealogical Society at Springfield offers many events that are helpful to genealogists. Information about the society and its events are online at www. ozarksgs.org. In addition to sponsoring genealogy events, the not-forprofit organization provides free use of its genealogy resources at the OGS library at 534 Catalpa. Because its schedule varies, check the website to learn about the hours it is open. Also, call the library, call 417-831-2773. While in Springfield, stop by The Genealogy Center, which also has exceptional genealogical resources. That public library is located at 4653 S. Campbell Avenue. Hours are 8:30 a.m. to 9 p.m. Mondays through Saturdays and 1 to 5 p.m. Sundays.

CASES FROM 2C Now, Wilcoxen is part of the team working to put names to the other unidentified human remains in the medical examiner’s office. “We need to go back and ensure that we did everything in our power, everything possible to try to get them identified,” he said. “There are family members out there that we know of, that are still to this day, even 20, 30 years later, wondering what happened to their loved one.” Peterson is hoping that releasing new details to the public on some of the cases will help solve who they were and give closure to the families. The oldest of the cases being reviewed by her office is the skeleton in the Doobie Brothers T-shirt. He was found behind a West Bottoms warehouse near the railroad tracks in July 1989, and is believed to have been a white man at least 40 years old. At the time, investigators were told he may have been from Chicago and arrived in Kansas City by train hopping. “That is one that is going to be difficult,” Peterson said. At 25th and Vine in September 1993, cable installers found the skeleton of a black woman in her 20s, with a partial wig and false fingernails, nearby. It’s unclear how she died. Peterson said her office has received several tips in that case. “There are people out there who think this lady is their loved one,” Peterson said. But none of the calls from the public have panned out. One of the stranger mysteries was a body found caught in the branches of a tree in 1995. Investigators believe the 40- to 50-year-old white man had climbed the tree and accidentally died after falling partway down.

A carry-in dinner was enjoyed by the members. The chapter briefly discussed upcoming service and social events before a service project of painting rocks for the Joplin Area Rocks project. The next meeting will be held in the home of Rose McCracken on Sept. 12. The man was wearing a black “Sailing Club, Kansas City” T-shirt, which Peterson hopes someone will recognize since there isn’t much sailing in the middle of the country. In May 2000, fishermen pulled a decomposed body from the Missouri River at the Chouteau Bridge that may have floated down from Kansas, Peterson said. Investigators believe the man was a homicide victim. He was between 45 and 55 years old and had two crude tattoos, pachuco cross on the right hand, between the thumb and forefinger, and “GG” on the left hand, in the same position. Investigators searched for people with matching tattoos, but the only person they found was alive and well in another state, Peterson said. Elsewhere in the country, other medical examiners have launched new efforts to put names to unidentified remains. Earlier this year in Illinois, the Cook County medical examiner’s office announced plans to host a “Missing Persons Day” event where family members with lost loved ones could provide dental and medical records and X-rays for a possible match. In 2012, the Milwaukee County medical examiner’s office started posting online some photos of unidentified remains. The photos, sometimes showing a bloated face or a tattoo, are accessed after the viewer passes through several warnings about the graphic nature of the images. In Kansas City, the Police Department missing persons supervisor Caldwell said the new effort with the medical examiner’s office has not yet shed any light on any of his cold cases. His role is primarily to help Peterson, he said, and they’ll keep working until they’ve exhausted all leads. “We’re here to help them out as best we can,” he said. “As long as it takes.”

Kansas couple introduces paddlers to Arkansas River BY AMY BICKEL The Hutchinson News

the United States. It crosses Kansas from west to east. It once sported ferries to help wagons and cars forge the wide river — even in western Kansas. These days, the western half of the Ark is largely bone dry from Garden City to well past Dodge City. But the other half of the river — from Great Bend to the Oklahoma border, is considered a paddler’s destination. Last year, the National Park Service last year named the 192-mile stretch of river into a National River Trail — similar to what was done on the Kansas River in 2012. It’s helped spur activity, said Wally Seibel, with the Arkansas River Coalition. “Yes, we are definitely seeing more,” said Seibel. “We conduct floats quite frequently on the river here in (Wichita), and it has gotten to the point we have to limit the numbers of participants we can accept.” Making the river more available is a lot of the reason the river has become popular. Twenty years ago, when he bought his first kayak, he couldn’t find one in Wichita. Today, there are several stores people can purchase one. Moreover, the coalition has worked to open up public access points for floaters to get on and off the river.

There are currently more than 40 access points along the river, according to the coalition’s website. “It’s just become so popular,” said Seibel. “Kayaking has become more popular with more and more participants. It’s just relaxing, low cost recreation and a lot of people are taking advantage of it.” The Browns are among the longtime river enthusiasts. Both artists, the river has been the perfect place to search for discarded items — including pieces of glass and pottery that they often use in their mosaics. They decided to turn their hobby into a business. Scott, who teaches at Hutchinson Community College, spends the summers porting passengers to the Fourth Avenue river bridge, where they launch their 5-mile trip to Carey Park. It’s one of what appears to be only two rental and shuttle companies on the Ark. Scott said he knew of a service near Arkansas City. “But it is a lot different river,” he said of the southern leg of the Arkansas River. “It is wide and very shallow, and it is running straight south in the prevailing Kansas wind.” Scott said he has noticed more people visiting the river, as well. “We see a lot more people

out here, and not just with us,” he said. The Browns continually introduce new floaters to the river. About a third of the floaters are from Hutchinson, the rest are from Wichita and other points across the state. They range from families to youth groups to couples celebrate 60th wedding anniversaries. “We had a gal who was doing 48 states in 48 days. When she zipped through Kansas, she took a tube trip with us for her time in Kansas. I thought that was pretty cool.” Talley and her new friends took their trip Aug. 8. Talley’s boss, Cara, had planned to go with her friends on the excursion, but had to back out at the last minute. She asked Talley to go in her place. “It was fun, definitely a good time,” said Amy Weedon. Next year, the Browns hope to add an 11-mile trip from Nickerson. For now, they are hoping to aid more floaters through the fall, including during the Kansas State Fair. “It’s hard work, and it is physical,” said Scott of the business. “But it has been fun. “It’s a great way to see a beautiful side of Kansas.”

Last week’s puzzles solved

HUTCHINSON, Kan. (AP) — Four hours earlier, Meghan Talley was below the Fourth Avenue bridge, wondering what she had gotten herself into. “I didn’t know these girls from Adam,” the Langdon woman said. “Was I nervous?” Yeah, I was.” But after spending a half day on a tube floating the Arkansas River together — Talley; Amy Weedon, of Wichita; and Janice Glass, of Arlington; were already making plans for the next outing. It seems floating the mighty Ark has never been so attractive. It’s a river with sandbars perfect for picnicking. It’s perfect for spotting wildlife such as deer and waterfowl that are searching for respite among the slow-flowing waters. And for Talley, it was four hours of taking in the world at a slower pace. Scott and Michele Brown are instrumental providing a way for residents to get on the river and enjoy its beauty. They launched Arkanoe last year. It’s the area’s only kayak, canoe and tube rental and shuttle service. The river’s increasing popularity is evident from their rentals, Scott told The Hutchinson News. They reached last year’s total rental numbers by mid-July. Because of the demand and success of their business, they plan to extend the floating season until at least mid-October. “I’m amazed, but I’m not amazed,” said Michele. “I knew it was going to be popular, but I didn’t know it was going to catch on this quickly.” Kansas has only three navigable rivers in the state that are open to the public for use — the Kansas, the Missouri and the Arkansas. The Arkansas River is the sixth-longest river in

Missouri city works to bring man back to his favorite bridge BY ERIN HEFFERNAN St. Louis Post-Dispatch

WEBSTER GROVES, Mo. (AP) — It’s 101 degrees in St. Louis, but Raynard Nebbitt is determined to see his bridge. He sits on his purple bicycle with a mud flap on the back and balances a 4-foot scale model of a highway overpass on his handlebars. Nebbitt rides his bike an hour and 12 minutes on a hot summer day from Tower Grove South to Webster Groves, balancing the model, dodging cars and walking up steep hills on his way. It’s all to get to his favorite place in the world: the South Rock Hill Road bridge over Interstate 44. Almost nothing stops Nebbitt, 58, who has a mental disability, from these daily journeys to the overpass. Nobody quite knows what he sees in this seemingly unexceptional place — Raynard tends to be quiet and has limited speech — but he has visited almost every day for 20 years. When there’s litter on the road, he cleans it up. He often decorates the bridge for holidays. He motions for trucks to honk their horns and waits to watch trains pass on the nearby tracks. Nebbitt handcrafted the model of the overpass he takes everywhere. The street markings, billboards and pipe-cleaner power lines are all there in incredible detail. Nebbitt has even become something of a local celebrity over the years, inspiring art, a parade float and a Facebook fan page with more than 600 members. “Of course we all know Raynard,” Webster Groves Mayor Gerry Welch said. “Everyone has seen him on his bridge, and I think people here look out for him.” But recently, life has made it harder for Nebbitt to see his bridge. Health and financial hardship in the family required him to move from Webster Groves to St. Louis last year, forcing him to make his hour-long bike rides each way to get to the community where he’s become a fixture. Still, he comes every day. “You can’t stop him,” said Nebbitt’s sister, Kathy Nebbitt. “I tell him: It’s way too hot to be going to that bridge today. You know what he says to me? ‘Goodbye Kathy.’” Now the people of Webster Groves are working to bring Nebbitt back to his bridge. “This is where he belongs,” said Welch. “We all want Raynard to come home.”

Nebbitt and his family moved in 1973 to a modest blue ranch home on North Gore Avenue in Webster Groves. Back then it was Nebbitt, his mother and father, his brothers William and Kevin Nebbitt, who also has a mental disability, and his older sister, Kathy Nebbitt. Growing up, Raynard was pretty sheltered, Kathy said. His parents didn’t allow him to go many places alone, but Nebbitt was always fascinated by trains and trucks. Kathy Nebbitt eventually took over her brother’s care, moving in with him in 1999. She let him venture out on his own as long as he was home by dark. “I always thought that as a working man, Raynard has a certain right to freedom,” Kathy said. He had a job at Industrial Aid, a manufacturing company that employs people with disabilities in Tower Grove South. He’s been employed on an assembly line there for 31 years. Kathy also had faith that Raynard would be safe in Webster Groves. The police looked out for him there. The shop owners knew him. Whenever Raynard seemed to be in trouble, someone would know to call Kathy. Despite the new freedom, Kathy soon realized that her brother kept returning to the same place. Nebbitt would be on the bridge in a coat and hat when it snowed, often laying down salt to make it easier for cars to pass. He’d be there wearing a tank top and denim shorts in the summer, no matter how hot. Over the years, Nebbitt would make several versions of his bridge model. When the overpass got new paint, Nebbitt would spread out on the ﬂoor of his bedroom and add fresh paint to his model while watching his favorite show, “The Three Stooges.” If you ask him, Nebbitt says he likes the bridge because of the “truck honkers and trains.” But his sister thinks it’s also the solitude. One day she and her daughter Ashley packed a picnic with a blanket and planned to spend the day on the bridge with Raynard. But when they got there, Raynard looked over at them, packed up his model and left. “I just think it’s his place of peace,” Kathy Nebbitt said. Soon the locals started to notice Nebbitt. People began to wave as they passed, and he would give his signature over-the-shoulder smile.

ask what’s for dinner (always hoping for his favorite meal: hot dogs and baked beans.) For a while, he would bike to the old house on North Gore. “We had to tell him, ‘You can’t go there anymore,’” Kathy Nebbitt said. “Someone else lives there now. I know it’s hard.” Kathy Nebbitt recently wrote the Webster-Kirkwood Times again, this time to share what had happened to her and Raynard Nebbitt. She said she was looking for a house to rent that was handicapped accessible for her, and shared that her THE ASSOCIATED PRESS brother wanted to be closer to his bridge.

Couple plan trip to Alaska after eclipse BY ERIN MATHEWS The Salina Journal

SALINA, Kan. (AP) — When Fred and Susan Patterson ﬂew toward Salina on Monday, they got to see the solar eclipse from 35,000 feet. But their trip home promises to be even more memorable. The Kodiak, Alaska, couple will be driving the 2,000mile way home in a sea foam green 1950 Chevrolet pickup truck with “character dents” and a top speed of about 50 miles an hour. They intend to take back roads, wave at people and stop at every little brewery along the way for a photo with their truck, which has Alaskan Brewing Co. logos on the doors because that’s where one of their daughters works. “It will be a good adventure,” Susan said. “Our daughter loves to research Airbnb’s, so she’s gotten us places to stay.”

WAITED FOR SUMMER Fred, who regularly visits his cousin Dianne Collicott, of Salina, and her husband, Olin, bought the pickup in Salina about a year ago. It was winter, and to avoid the treacherous weather, he and Susan, who are both 78, planned to return this summer to drive their pickup home. The truck, which they purchased from Salinan Tim Pestinger, has only about 48,000 miles on its original engine. Pestinger said he thought the truck was pretty cool and bought it “on a whim” at an estate sale in White

good time Catching frogs a summer rite of passage for some Kansans BY MICHAEL PEARCE The Wichita Eagle

ARVEY C COUNTY, Up, down and Kan. — Up rolling sandaround ro Claassen hills, Jed C drove a utility vehicle through veh a recentt night’s For i ht’ darkness. d k F 20 minutes i t we rolled toward what he and Russ Vanover had repeatedly promised would provide one of the most memorable outdoors adventures of my 50-plus year outdoors career. Vanover had used phrases like “best in the world,” and “most you’ve ever seen,” and the kiss of death “get our limits with no problem,” which usually sinks most trips. But within seconds of when Classeen finally stopped the open-air vehicle, I knew, if anything, my hosts had understated what we’d find. Illuminated in the headlights was a pond of maybe a half-acre, of which half was covered with lily pads the size of dinner plates. On many of those pads — and in about every spot of open water, plus scattered along the shoreline, — the white chins or diamond-like eyes of bullfrogs reflected in the light. And these weren’t the thumb-sized dinks you often see by the dozens in shallow ponds. These were the bullest of bullfrogs. They seemed to be in the hundreds. “The old-timers, guys that aren’t even alive anymore, talked about this place,” said Claassen, a farmer from Newton. “At least 50 and 100 years ago they said they’d come back here and always find hundreds of giant bullfrogs. They’d take them out by the gunny sack-full, then come back and do it again.” When we stepped to the water’s edge, it was obvious we’d take out our wire fish baskets, with the allowed limit, in only a few minutes. “OK,” I said to Claassen as we waded in. “This is the best I’ve ever seen. Better than I even dreamed of as a kid. Froggin’ nirvana. The Lost Dutchmen Mine of bullfrogs. Fort Knox with bullfrogs rather than gold.” There probably aren’t many in Kansas who get visibly excited about a pond where giant bullfrogs look as common as yellow dandelions in my unsprayed backyard after an April rain. But “frogging” was a big deal in my family. Gathering at the family lake an hour after dark — after some sweltering July or August day that had been filled with chopping weeds, mowing lawns, bucking small hay bales or picking sweet corn — was about the only recreation we had some weeks. We used a special, shallow-floating johnboat reserved for the sport. From grandpa to a young cousin or nephew, every person had their assigned task

Jed Claassen (above left) points to a bullfrog for Henry Claassen and Russ Vanover in the lily pads at the legendary “frog pond” in Harvey County, Kan. On a recent Friday night and Saturday morning, four people caught their combined limits of 64 in less than an hour. The pond is ﬁlled with dozens of frogs (middle). Henry Claassen (top), 15, laid aside a spear-like gig in favor of grabbing frogs at the pond. He grabbed his limit of eight before, and after, midnight in just a few TNS | MICHAEL PEARCE, minutes.

Fishing is the fix for summer heat An afternoon of sweltering heat made us sweat so profusely that we had to stop several times to wipe sweat from our faces. If we hadn’t done that, perspiration would’ve trickled into our eyes because we weren’t wearKEITH ing headCOSTLEY bands. The bottom of our Columnist T-shirts served as makeshift towels. In a matter of a few minutes, they were rendered ineffective because of excessive moisture. To say it was hot would be a gross understatement. The high temperature was 100 degrees with a heat index at a dangerous level of 110. Travis and his daughter, my 4-year-old granddaughter Hadley, were down from Kansas City on a July weekend for a visit, and he, as usual for this time of year, was chomping at the bit to go fishing. Our only option was to wade a cool Ozark stream to chase smallmouth bass. That way we could spend the majority of our time — or so we thought — fishing in the shade under the canopies of majestic sycamore trees. Wading would serve as a respite from the heat, and we could even take a break from time to time to soak in the crystal-clear waters for a total body cool-down. That’s one of the perks of wading creeks when the weather is so hot that you could cook an egg on a sidewalk. The same thing is true when you go on summertime canoe trips. Dress accordingly and you can take a dip anytime you want. To be forthright, I wasn’t in the mood to fight the heat because I had been working a temporary summer outdoor job for the state of Missouri, but I reasoned that it’s not often I have the opportunity to fish with Travis, so I decided to take advantage of the

IN BRIEF Popular float stream sites remain closed While many areas at Ozark National Scenic Riverways have reopened following the record spring flood, some sites remain partially or totally closed, according to the latest update from the National Park Service. “If anything good can come from such a devastating flood, it provides us with the opportunity to re-think which facilities can be relocated outside the flood zone. We know that funding won’t be available to keep replacing or repairing facilities damaged or destroyed by recurrent flooding,” Superintendent Larry Johnson said in a statement. • ALLEY SPRING CAMPGROUND on the Jack’s Fork River is open, and a new, durable concrete shower house and restroom designed for use in

flood-prone prone areas was installed in the campground in late July. Portable toilets remain in each camping loop in the absence of flush toilets. The regular summer camping rates and online reservation system were restored July 28. Work to repair the existing damaged restroom buildings throughout the campground is expected to begin in the fall, with anticipated completion before Memorial Day 2018. Because of damage to the utilities, it may be some time before the flush toilets can be reopened. • HARVEY’S ALLEY SPRING CANOE RENTAL concession store is scheduled for repairs beginning in the fall. • SHAWNEE CREEK CAMPGROUND, a backcountry camping area, is currently open, but the restroom at the site is closed because of flood damage. In 2018, the restroom at Shawnee Creek Campground will be replaced with a new durable concrete vault toilet

designed for use in floodprone areas. • WHILE MANY HORSE TRAILS have opened, the Jerktail Loop is still heavily impacted by flood debris and will be assessed and opened in the next couple of months. • THE PULLTITE VISITOR CENTER on the Current River was heavily damaged and remains closed. Repair work is expected to begin over the winter, with reopening tentatively set for Memorial Day 2018. • THE POWDER MILL CAMPGROUND on the Current also will remain closed for the remainder of 2017. The campground is tentatively slated to reopen in 2018, but that will depend on completion of road work in the campground as well as the availability of electricity and a restroom facility. • THE TWO RIVERS concession store will be replaced with a temporary mobile office building in the fall. • THE BIG SPRING DINING LODGE AND CABINS have been closed

since the fall of 2014 in preparation for extensive rehabilitation and restoration. Restoration work on the lodge and cabins is currently planned to begin in 2020. “We had originally planned to repair the crucial life, health and safety issues of the lodge and cabins with the intent to reopen them while the major renovations could be done. However, the ﬂood damage is too extensive to allow for that. Therefore, the facilities will remain closed while the major renovation work is completed, and the lodge and cabins will reopen after that work is done,” Johnson said. • BIG SPRING CAMPGROUND, which suffered extensive damage, will not reopen in 2017. The Big Spring group campsites and restroom, as well as three loops in the main campground, the shower house and one additional restroom are tentatively planned to reopen by Memorial Day 2018.

U.S. has a debt problem

CONGRESS shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

Quotable ‘Peace is not absence of conﬂict, it is the ability to handle conﬂict by peaceful means.’

oo many of the students who have attended college leave school carrying a crushing debt burden from student loans. More than 44 million borrowers are carrying about $1.4 trillion in student loan debt in the United States, and the average student in the class of 2016 is carrying $37,172 in student loan debt, as reported in a front page story in today’s Globe. The portion of student borrowers carrying more than $20,000 in debt has jumped from 20 percent to more than 40 percent over the past 15 years, according to the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. Rising tuition costs are only a portion of the problem. Many students don’t understand the loans they are taking out. Many who graduate with debt stretch the repayment out through deferments and reduced payments to the point that they repay a much greater amount — paying interest on interest folded back into the loan. There are ways to reduce the problem. Missouri has made strides. The state’s student loan default rate has declined from 13.1 percent in 2014 to 11.5 percent, according to the state Department of Higher Education. For several years in a row, Missouri Southern State University in Joplin has received a $25,000 one-year grant toward programming to help students avoid defaulting on their loans. Individuals and families are ultimately the ones who pay these debts. There are steps that can reduce the number and size of student loans and can cut the cost of borrowing. First, plan ahead so you can greatly reduce borrowing. Parents, contribute to 529 college plans or prepaid tuition plans to prepare for your children’s education. Students, submit the Free Application for Federal Student Aid so you can access the many grants and scholarships available. Investigate and apply for those grants and scholarships. Know what kind of student loan you are getting and what its requirements are. There are Stafford loans, Perkins loans, PLUS loans — that parents apply for — and more. All have different conditions, requirements and options. Before you borrow, consider how much you will be able to pay back upon graduation. Consider the salary range for the field you are entering. Weigh that against what you are borrowing so you have a sense of how well you will be able to handle the debt after graduation. And after you graduate, don’t defer if you can avoid it. Don’t take loan relief that lowers your payments below the interest accruing monthly. Finally, community colleges are a great resource. Our area is rich in them. Consider attending, at least for the first two years. They cost less than larger universities or private colleges. Because most credits can be transferred to larger in-state schools, community college can be a great place to complete the first two years of school at a lower cost.

Where does it end? There has been a lot of noise about our Civil War reminders. How about the concentration camps in Germany? The site of the dropping of the atomic bomb in Japan? The world has history, some of which is bad. The Capitol building in Washington, D.C., was built by slaves. Should we destroy it too? Where does this nonsense end? Don Adams Nevada

Remove Chappelle-Nadal I call for Maria Chappelle-Nadal to be removed from the Missouri Senate immediately. She should be barred from any and all future political aspirations locally or statewide. One who calls for the assassination of the president of the United States should be thoroughly investigated and the proper sanctions/discipline must be imposed. Calling for a presidential assassination is strongly indicative of the morally bankrupt character of any individual. It is time Missourians demand the resignation and departure of such a senator, if you can call her one. James Valenti Carthage

Free trade good for nation despite looming protectionism

ASHINGTON — Sooner or later — and the later the better — the president’s wandering attention will flit, however briefly, to the subject of trade. So let us try to think about the problem as he seems to: Wily cosmopolitans beyond our borders are insinuating across our borders goods that Americans, perhaps misled by British economist David Ricardo, persist in purchasing. Exactly 200 years ago, Ricardo published “On the Principles of Political Economy and Taxation,” explaining the doctrine of comparative advantage. Paul Samuelson, a leading 20th-century economist, cited this doctrine when challenged to name a social-science proposition that is both true and not obvious. British journalist Matt Ridley calls Ricardo’s insight “a thoroughly counterintuitive idea” that “takes Adam Smith’s division of labor one step further.” It explains why free trade benefits every country, even relatively advanced England trading cloth for wine from relatively undeveloped Portugal, which has a comparative advantage making that product. Seven years after Ricardo’s book appeared, Thomas Babington Macaulay wrote, “Free trade, one of the greatest blessings which a government can confer on a people, is in almost every country unpopular.” It certainly is with the Trump administration, which bristles with chest-thumping anti-cosmo-

politans who are too ﬂinty to be bamboozled by foreigners like Ricardo and others who deny that trade is a zero-sum game. Foreigners, however, have their uses. After the president GEORGE trumpeted that the WILL Dow surpassing the 22,000 mark was evColumnist idence of America’s resurgent greatness, The Wall Street Journal rather impertinently noted this: Boeing, whose shares have gained 50 percent this year and which accounted for 563 of the more than 2,000 points the Dow had gained this year en route to 22,000, makes about 60 percent of its sales overseas. Boeing has a backlog of orders for 5,705 planes, 75 percent going outside North America. For Apple, the second-biggest contributor (283 points) to this year’s Dow gain at that point, foreign sales are two-thirds of its total sales. Foreign sales are also two-thirds of the sales of McDonald’s, the third-biggest contributor (239 points). Mark Perry of the American Enterprise Institute says that in the last 20 years the inﬂation-adjusted value of U.S. manufacturing output has increased 40 percent even though — actually, partly because — U.S. factory employment decreased 5.1 million jobs (29

percent). Manufacturing’s share of GDP is almost unchanged since 1960. “U.S. manufacturing output was near a record high last year at $1.91 trillion, just slightly below the 2007 level of $1.92 trillion, and will likely reach a new record high later this year.” That record will be reached with about the same level of factory workers (fewer than 12.5 million) as in the early 1940s, when the U.S. population was about 135 million. Increased productivity is the reason there can be quadrupled output from the same number of workers. According to one study, 88 percent of manufacturing job losses are the result of improved productivity, not rapacious Chinese. But those Democrats who think government should ﬁne-tune everything are natural protectionists (Sen. Charles Schumer: “They’re rapacious, the Chinese”) and probably think Trump is too fainthearted because he is not protecting Americans from competition from Americans. This neglect might be changing, thanks to West Virginia’s Gov. Jim Justice. It was beguilingly transactional — no nonsense about principles — when Justice recently had his road-to-Damascus moment. Elected as a Democrat nine months ago, Justice, a billionaire from the coal industry, announced at a Donald Trump rally that he had discovered that he is a Republican. Almost simultaneously, he asked for

a $4.5 billion subsidy for the coal industry: Taxpayers everywhere should pay Eastern utilities $15 for every ton of Central or Northern Appalachian coal they burn. Naturally, Justice said this is necessary for “national security,” the hitherto neglected menace being this: Competition from more productive American mines and, even worse, from American fracking (too much inexpensive oil and natural gas) is endangering America by threatening the “survivability” of America’s Eastern coalﬁelds, potentially putting America “at risk beyond belief.” Suppose, Justice says, terrorists disrupted the Eastern power grid and there were no abundant supplies of Eastern coal? (He did not explain how the coal would ﬁx the grid.) So, channeling George Orwell, Justice says the subsidy is not a subsidy, it is a “homeland security incentive.” Trump surely will make a similar claim when he proposes to tax Americans (they will pay all tariffs) who jeopardize America’s security by buying American refrigerators made with steel imports that delight America’s circling enemies by putting domestic steel mills “at risk.” Anyone who cannot make a similar argument against imports of Greek yogurt — “food security equals national security” — is a novice protectionist.

3D COMMENTARY Two athletes offer modern-day contrast in personal character F SUNDAY, AUGUST 27, 2017

ootball put both through college. Both were standouts at their respective alma maters. One was twice named his conference’s Offensive Player of the Year and Most Valuable Player of his school’s 2008 Humanitarian Bowl appearance, the other the first college sophomore to win the Heisman Trophy. In 2010, one went in the first round of the NFL Draft, a year later the other went in the second round. In 2011, the Heisman Trophy winner took over a 1-and-4 season and led the Denver Broncos to the AFC West title. In 2012, the bowl MVP led the San Francisco 49ers to their first Super Bowl since 1994. Yet despite their promising starts, Hall of Fame NFL careers were not in the cards. The one who did the most in college was out the soonest in 2012 while the other lasted through 2016. If you haven’t guessed by now, the players in question are Tim Tebow and Colin Kaepernick

and their stories present a modern day contrast in personal character and societal mores. A contrast lying not in their NFL entrance — both were standouts — but in their GEOFF exits. accepted that CALDWELL hisOne style of play didn’t fit with the Columnist NFL of today and went on with his life. Tebow is now taking a shot a Major League Baseball, playing in the New York Mets farm system. The other chose to ignore his poor performance on the field and in his last year under contract decided that, if he couldn’t be a celebrity on the field, he’d make himself one off the field by refusing to stand for the national anthem. When Tim Tebow was playing, there was much discussion of his public display of his Christian faith. Some wonder to this day

if that didn’t play a part in his quick exit from the NFL. Last season, there was the “movement” Kaepernick started when he took to his knee during the playing of the national anthem. Yet unlike Tebow, “Kap,” as his fans call him, won’t let go. Instead, he implies that his failure to be picked up as a free agent is not his past two years of poor performance but payback for his behavior. So fast has this meme spread that last Wednesday several hundred Kaepernick fans gathered outside NFL headquarters to protest his treatment and demand his reinstatement. Left-wing activist and antifa supporter Linda Sarsour is now involved and helping to organize the movement, and Derrick Johnson, interim president and CEO of the NAACP, wrote to NFL commissioner Roger Goodell: “No player should be victimized and discriminated against because of his exercise of free speech — to

do so is in violation of his rights under the Constitution and the NFL’s own regulations.” Both could not be more wrong. Yes, Colin Kaepernick and every NFL player since and going forward has every right to not stand during the playing of the national anthem. And team owners also have the right to set discipline and behavior standards for their teams. If the NFL had an ounce of self-respect left, it would issue a single statement on behalf of all teams: “While we respect the First Amendment right of every American to protest his government and speak his mind, NFL teams are private organizations that exist for the sport of football. Any player under contract with an NFL team is fully encouraged to express himself in any Constitutional manner he so chooses — OFF the ﬁeld. Players are free, on their time, to go to any baseball, basketball, hockey, soccer game or any other event

and kneel during the playing of our national anthem. But on our ﬁelds, in our stadiums, you will stand or you will be benched.” Of course the NFL will never issue a statement like that. Roger Goodell’s alternate name is “Spine of Fish made of Jelly.” But, oh, what a study in contrast we have — a study not about race, religion, sex, gender or any other identity politics meme of the day but a study of character. Tim Tebow, a man living his dream with no end in sight only to see it all come crashing down. Yet, no rallies, no demands, just thankful to have had the chance and moving on. Colin Kaepernick, a man of the same age, the same dream, the same crash, yet blames others and demands “justice.” One is a lesson in the content of character, the other a caricature leading a cast of characters.

Time for honesty on ‘white privilege’ J

ason Ford is a young, highly successful entrepreneur in Austin, Texas, who has been very vocal about his assertion that very few people obtain success all by themselves. He elaborates the many ways generations before him helped make his success possible. He feels that is the case for most successful people, especially those born male into the American middle class. “While I may have some natural ability and put in my share of sweat and tears, the best pilot(s) in the world cannot fly to the moon unless someone provides them with a rocket ship. Seen in this light, my privilege is the vehicle most responsible for my success. I may have flown it a little further than most, but I would be nowhere without it.” Mr. Ford is also a firm believer that his success was possible because of his skin color. “White privilege” has been real since the very beginning of our country, whose founding was marred by the institution of slavery and by the government that declared slaves to be property and only equal to 3/5th of a person. Even after freedom was granted, Jim Crow laws, racism and public housing and lending policies left their imprint on our nation and its people, giving ample opportunities to some but not to all. Those with opportunities in the early days of our country have had an advantage because “generational wealth favors those with more generations of opportunity. Due to the time value of money, it’s better to have started with money a long time ago than to just now receive it today. ... The wealth aspect of privilege can be thought of like a multi-generational interest-bearing account. ... Discrimination still in place today causes some wealth accounts to grow at different rates with the same

input of intelligence and hard work. “And even today, the accounts of Black families don’t work quite as KATE well as those of White families. RHOADES Lending discrimination is Guest Columnist still prevalent in many places, and there is a huge wage gap between White and Black employees working the same jobs with the same education and experience. Things are better today than they have ever been, and they are still not all that close to equal.” Mr. Ford has a simple equation to express his beliefs: Success = hard work × privilege. “This explains why people with similar intelligence, drive, hard work and willingness to make sacrifices can achieve radically different success outcomes. We multiply everything we bring to the table by the privilege we inherit. Some of us get a 10x or 100x multiplier. Others get 1x or closer to zero.” Do not be fooled by the myth that all it takes to be successful is hard work, and that laziness or lack of effort accounts for lack of success. It is more likely that the higher privilege multipliers make the difference. I agree with Jason Ford when he says “Privilege and wealth tend to grow exponentially. It has taken generations of abuse and exploitation by individuals and our public institutions to get us to the level of inequality we have today.” For far too long we have ignored the fact that the world is not a level playing field. The imbalance in the world should be troubling to everyone, and we need to acknowledge the problem and have some honest discourse about finding a solution.

Hard to remove, Trump well on road to irrelevance W

e have endured Donald Trump for seven months. In that brief time he has almost single-handedly destroyed the moral authority of the presidency of the United States at home and abroad, brought us to the brink of a nuclear war without consulting anyone, and sown division and hatred across the land. How can this nation endure another 41 months of this man? We can’t wait for special counsel Robert Mueller’s evidence of Russian collusion. Even if Mueller ﬁnds that some of Trump’s aides colluded, Mueller might well ﬁnd that Trump had “plausible deniability.” Top guns often arrange wrongdoing so they can plausibly deny they knew it was occurring. That’s the art of the deal. So how can Trump be removed? There’s already enough evidence to impeach him on grounds of abuse of power, obstruction of justice and violation of the emoluments clause of the Constitution. There is already enough evidence of mental impairment to invoke the 25th Amendment. But with Republicans con-

trolling both houses of Congress, neither of these outcomes is likely. Yet there’s another way Trump can be effectively removed: He can be made irrelevant. ROBERT It’s already starting to hapREICH pen. Trump no longer has a working Columnist majority in the Senate because several Senate Republicans have decided the hell with him. Three Republican senators voted against repealing the Affordable Care Act, dooming his effort. Almost all voted to restrict his authority over Russian sanctions. They’re also pushing forward with their own inquiry into Trump’s Russian connections. Republican Sens. Thom Tillis and Lindsey Graham have even joined Democrats in introducing legislation to protect Mueller from being ﬁred. Republicans in the House won’t fund his wall. Many refuse to increase the national debt in order to pay for his promised tax cuts. Af-

ter Charlottesville, many more are willing to criticize him publicly. Last week, Tennessee’s Bob Corker, chairman of the Senate Committee on Foreign Relations, even questioned Trump’s “stability” and “competence,” saying Trump hasn’t shown he understands “the character of this nation,” and that without that understanding, “our nation is going to go through great peril.” The Washington Post’s Dan Balz reports that GOP leaders are “personally wrestling with the tradeoffs of making a cleaner separation with the president.” It helps that Republican patrons in big business are deserting Trump in droves. A number of CEOs have bolted his advisory councils. Many have issued sharp rebukes of Trump. These are people who raise big bucks for the GOP. Their dumping of Trump makes it easier for elected Republicans to do so, too. Even James Murdoch, the 21st Century Fox CEO whose media outlets include Fox News, the Wall Street Journal and The New York Post — among the loudest mouthpieces for Trump — is ditching him.

Last Thursday, Murdoch wrote in a widely circulated email that “what we watched ... in Charlottesville and the reaction to it by the president of the United States concern all of us as Americans and free people,” and pledged $1 million to the Anti-Defamation League. This doesn’t mean Fox News or the Wall Street Journal will call for Trump’s ouster. It does mean their commentators and editorial writers now have clear license to criticize him. America as a whole is abandoning him. Trump’s approval rating hit an all-time low of 34 percent last week. Even parts of his base are dropping him. New NBC News/Marist polls show that Trump’s approval ratings have fallen below 40 percent in Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin — three states that were key to his election, which he won by a whisker. Inside the administration, there are moves to contain and isolate the man-child. On foreign policy, the Axis of Adults — Chief of Staff John Kelly, National Security Adviser H.R. McMaster and Secretary of

State Rex Tillerson — is asserting tighter control, especially after Trump’s tweetstorm over North Korea. Reportedly, daughter Ivanka and son-in-law Jared Kushner are stepping up attempts to constrain him as well. “You have no idea how much crazy stuff we kill,” another White House aide told Mike Allen of Axios. Plus, Stephen Bannon is gone. All of this means that, although Trump will still hold the title of president, he’s on the way to being effectively removed from the presidency. We’re not out of danger. Trump will continue to rant and fume. He’ll insult. He’ll stoke racial tensions. He could still start a nuclear war. But, hopefully, he won’t be able to exercise much presidential power from here on. He’s being ostracized like an obnoxious adolescent who’s been grounded. When the media stop reporting his tweets, his isolation and irrelevance will be complete.

the federal response to the damage and flooding, the White House said Saturday in a statement. The president held a video conference from Camp David in which he instructed departments and agencies to “stay fully engaged and positioned to support his number one priority of saving lives,” the statement said. Trump, who on Friday signed a federal disaster declaration for coastal counties, also reminded department heads that the full impact of the storm will not be apparent for days. On Twitter, he commended the head of the Federal Emergency Management Agency for his handling of the disaster. In Corpus Christi, the major city closest to the storm’s center, wind whipped palm trees and stinging sheets of horizontal rain slapped against hotels and office buildings along the seawall as the storm made landfall. Daybreak revealed downed lamp posts and tree limbs and roof tiles torn off buildings. Along Interstate 45 leaving Galveston, the rain was so intense that drivers stopped under bridges because they could not see in front of them. Rain fell on Houston at nearly 3 inches an hour, leaving some streets and underpasses underwater. The many drainage channels known as bayous that carry excess water to the Gulf were flowing freely and rising.

“Flooding is a minor issue so far,” Harris County Judge Ed Emmett, the chief administrator of the county that includes Houston, said. “Most of the watersheds are well within banks, but we’re not out of this.” Francisco Sanchez, with the Harris County Emergency Management Office, said the storm would be around for a while. “Someone is going to get those very high rainfall totals,” he said. “Hopefully it’s not us, but we’re in that possibility area.” South of the city, about 4,500 inmates were evacuated from three state prisons in Brazoria County because the nearby Brazos River was rising. The turbulent weather extended into southern Louisiana, where motorists were cautioned about the potential for high water, road hazards, high winds and tornadoes. Harvey came ashore as the fiercest hurricane to hit the U.S. in 13 years and the strongest to strike Texas since 1961’s Hurricane Carla, the most powerful Texas hurricane on record. The storm’s approach sent tens of thousands of people fleeing inland. Just hours before landfall, the governor and Houston leaders issued conflicting statements on evacuation. The governor urged more people to flee, but Houston officials recommended no widespread evacuations, citing greater danger in having people on roads that.

Critics: Trump pardon latest affront against judiciary President granted clemency for Arpaio on Friday THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump’s pardon of former Arizona sheriff Joe Arpaio shows a lack of regard for an independent judiciary, say critics who note Trump’s past criticism of federal judges, including the chief justice of the United States. Supporters counter that the veteran law enforcement ofﬁcer deserved America’s gratitude, “not the injustice of a political witch hunt.” “I am pleased to inform you that I have just granted a full Pardon to 85 year old American patriot Sheriff Joe Arpaio. He kept Arizona safe!,” Trump tweeted late Friday after the White House announced that he had used his pardon power for the ﬁrst time, sparing a political ally the prospect of jail time for defying court orders to halt police patrols

that focused on Latinos. The announcement came as Trump hunkered down at the Camp David presidential retreat while millions along the Texas coast braced themselves for Hurricane Harvey’s impact. Trump’s decision also followed the uproar that ensued after he said “both sides” were responsible for deadly violence during race-fueled clashes this month in Charlottesville, Virginia. There is no legal dispute over Trump’s ability to pardon in a contempt of court case, as was Arpaio’s. The U.S. Supreme Court ruled in 1925 that a presidential pardon for a criminal contempt of court sentence was within the powers of the executive, and Trump had telegraphed his move for days. But the pardon was unusual given that Arpaio was awaiting sentencing. It

COSTLEY FROM 1D short window of time we had to fish. When we arrived at the Missouri Department of Conservation Deep Ford Access, 31/2 miles east of Pineville on Big Sugar Creek in McDonald County, we were greeted by 26 vehicles. When we walked to the end of the parking lot, we saw an additional 10 vehicles lining the bank. I’d never seen so many vehicles at this location. More than 100 people were cooling off in nature’s swimming pool. For a while, I thought we were engaging in the wrong activity; perhaps we should’ve been swimming as well. That would’ve been the smart thing to do! When Travis and I were walking downstream to escape the crowd, I couldn’t help noticing that a portion of the creek bank was all but unrecognizable from the previous summer. I was stunned. We witnessed a humongous logjam that was every bit of 30 yards wide and 100 yards long. I wondered how many years it would take for the trees to decompose enough for another flood to carry what was left downstream. Sadly, many of the trees that shaded parts of the creek were down, and we were forced to fish a bank for several hundred yards that now had no shade. Fishing a half-mile stretch in the open, we only caught a couple of smallmouth each. Along the way, I met a personable young man and had a lengthy conversation about a pet he brought to the creek: a bearded

also had not gone through the normal pardon process, which includes lengthy reviews by the Justice Department and the White House counsel’s ofﬁce. The Washington Post reported Saturday that Trump had asked Attorney General Jeff Sessions last spring whether it would be possible for the government to drop the criminal case against Arpaio. After being advised that would be inappropriate, Trump decided to let the case go to trial and, if Arpaio were convicted, could grant clemency later, the Post reported. The newspaper said its sources, who were not identiﬁed, were three people with knowledge of the conversation. The Post reported that when press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders was asked about the Trump-Sessions conversation about Arpaio’s case, she responded: “It’s only natural the president would have a

dragon. What was interesting is that he had the reptile on a leash. I had never seen that before. At a distance, the animal looked like a mini alligator. “How long do you think he is?” the young man asked. “Oh, I’d say the dragon is about 18 inches in length,” I said. “You’re a good guesser,” he replied. “She’s 181/4 inches long.” “I got lucky,” I said with a smile and a chuckle. After some research, I learned that bearded dragons are popular pets, especially for those who have never owned one. The name comes from their ability to puff or flare out the skin of their throats, often darkening their flesh to a black color, which looks like a beard. This is a defense mechanism to make them look more threatening to predators and other animals. To the contrary, they have a docile personality. When Travis and I rounded a sharp bend in the creek, we found what we were so desperately looking for: a refuge to escape the blistering sun. Before our eyes was a glorious 200-yard stretch of creek that was 95 percent in the shade. We were elated. When the weather is hot, I like to fish in the shade to stay cooler. Add a gentle breeze, and the fishing is delightful. Now, if only someone would hand me a glass of lemonade. I’m dreaming! Fish are no different in that they like the shade as well; it provides bronzebacks a cooler environment and better ambush spots in low-light conditions. If I sported a warm pair of neoprene waders to fish creeks on a cold winter day, I’d target smallies in sunny areas as the opposite would be in play.

discussion with administration lawyers about legal matters. This case would be no different.” Reaction to Trump’s pardon was sharp and swift, including among some fellow Republicans with whom the president has been feuding openly. House Speaker Paul Ryan, R-Wis., signaled his disagreement with the pardon through his spokesman. “Law-enforcement ofﬁcials have a special responsibility to respect the rights of everyone in the United States,” Ryan spokesman Doug Andres said in a statement. “We should not allow anyone to believe that responsibility is diminished by this pardon.” Republican Sen. John McCain of Arizona, who incurred Trump’s wrath after voting against a Republican health care bill, said: “The president has the authority to make this pardon, but doing so at this time undermines his claim

For the next hour, we fished the entire shaded area in water up to 5 feet in depth. I’ve fished this part of the creek numerous times with great success. On one side is a short bluff that tapers into several yards of rocky bank. The other bank is lined with sycamore trees where rootwads protrude in the creek to provide excellent fish structure. As expected — even in the shade — the action was slow. Travis and I caught a half dozen smallies; however, oddly enough, they were 10 to 13 inches in length. On our ultra-light fishing gear, they put up a scrappy fight. I’ve said it many times, and I’ll say it again: Pound for pound, there’s not another species of fish in the Ozarks that puts up a harder fight than a smallmouth. A small spinning reel, light line and a short buggy-whipped rod are a perfect match for smallies in Southwest Missouri’s clearwater streams. Anything bigger than that is overkill; it takes the fun away from playing the fish. We didn’t catch as many smallies as usual on this outing. And we were perfectly fine with that. It didn’t bother us in the least. The gold nugget of wisdom my father-in-law taught me when I was a young man often comes to mind: If you measure your success on the total number of fish caught or the amount of game harvested, your priorities are in the wrong place. I couldn’t agree more. Catching fish and harvesting game is a bonus. If you’ll remember that, your time in the great outdoors will be much more enjoyable. We did.

for the respect of rule of law as Mr. Arpaio has shown no remorse for his actions.” The state’s junior senator, Republican Jeff Flake, also disagreed with the move. “I would have preferred that the president honor the judicial process and let it take its course,” tweeted Flake, a Trump critic who has come in for particularly harsh treatment from the president. Trump has called Flake, who is up for re-election next year, “toxic” and “WEAK” on border issues and crime. Trump has rooted openly for Flake’s GOP challenger, state Sen. Kelli Ward, who supports Arpaio’s pardon, which could become an issue in the race. “We applaud the president for exercising his pardon authority to counter the assault on Sheriff Arpaio’s heroic efforts to enforce the nation’s immigration laws,” she said. Rep. Andy Biggs, R-Ariz., said, “America owes Sheriff Arpaio a debt of gratitude

FROGS FROM 1D of rowing, holding the brightest light, grabbing or cleaning the catch. We’d grab limits of eight each before midnight, clean them, then go out on the new day and get more. But even in our best year, we have nothing like “the frog pond.” Within seconds Vanover had his light fixed on a big frog and grabbed it, while 15-year-old Henry Claassen speared another with a gig made by his uncle, Jeb Claassen. From then on there was never a time when one of us wasn’t working toward a frog. I flushed three unseen giants while wading toward my first at the pond. I’ve honestly had it take longer to pick a dozen ripe tomatoes from my garden than it took us to get the first dozen frogs. At one time there were three dandies within inches of each other on shore. The one I gigged was as wide as a brick “That’s the thing, not only are there so many, but they’re all so big,” Vanover said as he added a frog with thick, 10-inch legs to a wire basket. “Check out how big all of these frogs are, and they’re about all that way. They were all that way when we came here (the other) night.” Even taking breaks for photography, we each had our eight big frogs caught, cleaned by Vanover and Jeb Claassen, and on ice by 10:30 p.m. That left an hour-and-a-half until midnight,

and not the injustice of a political witch hunt.” But while the pardon could in the short term energize Trump’s conservative base, which includes many with strong anti-immigration views, the decision could further alienate voter groups, such as Latinos, whose support the Republican Party has said it needs to win future elections. Trump managed to defy those dynamics in 2016. Jens David Ohlin, vice dean and professor at Cornell Law School, said he was disturbed by the pardon, given Trump’s relationship with the judiciary. “Ever since the campaign and the beginning of his administration he’s had a very contentious relationship with the judiciary and hasn’t shown much respect for either members of the judiciary or the proper role of the judiciary within our constitutional structure,” Ohlin said Saturday.

when we could collect another day’s batch of bullfrogs. Driving pasture two-tracks, we checked a few other small ponds and wet spots. Some had thumbsized “calf-frogs” by the score. One had frogs of all sizes, including probably more big frogs than I’d seen up until that day. Still, it wasn’t as many as we’d left behind at “the frog pond.” At midnight we waded back in, and worked the same sections of lily pads we’d worked a few hours before and where my three hosts had taken limits of eight each on Monday. Frogs still scattered like quail as we waded along. Even stopping for a few more photos, we ﬁnished our combined limits of 32 in 19 minutes, and we hadn’t covered onefourth of the small pond. “I know I can’t explain it, why this is always so good at this one pond, night after night, year after year,” said Vanover, who likes to marinade his frog legs in teriyaki a few hours, sprinkle them with seasoning and panfry. “I know you go most places and if you get a dozen really nice frogs from a pond, you’re thrilled. I’ve never even heard of anything like this place.” As we loaded our gear to leave, the deep calls of oversized bullfrogs came from the pads where we’d just taken so many. A fast sweep with a light showed many eyes sparkling like Christmas lights amid the green lily pads. Like Vanover, I can’t explain why one pond smaller than many yards annually holds so many bullfrogs. But I’m glad it does.

REMEMBER TO LOOK IN THE JOPLIN GLOBE EVERY WEDNESDAY FOR

HOROSCOPES LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) Do what you can to get ahead. Working on your own will be your best choice. Take care of your personal and financial obligations before it’s close to impossible to do so. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) Talk is cheap. If someone promises you something, get it in writing. A change of heart will open a door to new opportunities. Celebrate with someone you love. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) Ease into anything you want to pursue. Getting all the facts and considering how you can take care of delicate matters without disrupting plans or a relationship will be essential. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) A little fix-me-up will do you good. Whether you make physical changes or you alter things at home, the results will lift your spirits if you stay within budget.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) Personal changes can be made, as long as you are reasonable in your expectations and practical about what you are trying to accomplish. Listen to someone who loves you.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) Changes at home or to your lifestyle should be made to encourage less spending. Look for ways to cut your overhead and ease the stress you’ve been feeling.

PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) Personal improvements can be made. Set your sights on your goals, and start making them come true. A financial gain looks promising. Romance is highlighted.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) Forge ahead with what’s most important to you, and start making the necessary adjustments to achieve your aims. Talk to the people you feel are best suited to helping you reach your goals.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) Nurture important relationships by taking the time to listen to complaints or requests carefully and doing your best to accommodate the ones you love. Hard work will bring rewards. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) Take time to think matters through before you make a move. Acting in haste will leave you in a precarious position that could influence how you get along with your peers.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) A personal change should be based on your needs and not the product of you trying to appease someone heading in a different direction. The less said, the less interference you’ll encounter. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) You are best off thinking matters through and coming up with alternatives that can help smooth over any differences you have with those you live or work with.

CLOUDY WINDSHIELD OFTEN MEANS BAD HEATER CORE BY RAY MAGLIOZZI

Dear Car Talk:

I have a 2015 Yukon XL with a cloudy inside windshield. It looks perfectly clean until the sun or oncoming headlights shine on it. I have tried to wash it with glass cleaner, and also plain water. When I go to dry it, it streaks really bad. One time, when I took it in for service, I asked the service representative if the manufacturer had put some kind of film on it. She said, “It’s coming from the defroster, and there is nothing I can do about it.” The only way I have found to clean it is with a dry cloth. I like to drive with a clean windshield inside and out. No one smokes in my vehicle. I have been driving for 56 years and have cleaned a lot of windshields. Do you have any ideas? I live in northern Ohio, so I can’t just stop using my defroster. But I hate having to clean my windshield every time I use my defroster. What’s wrong? — Judy Well, these are classic symptoms of a leaking heater core, Judy. But your car seems to be too new to have a bad heater core. The heater core is a second, small radiator that provides heat to the passenger compartment. When you call for heat, coolant from the engine circulates through it, then the fan blows over the heater core and transmits heat from that hot coolant, through the vents, to the car’s interior. But if the heater core is leaking, coolant mist can get blown by the fan, along with the warm air. Coolant is greasy, and guess what it does? It leaves a film. It also has a sweet taste, but it’s toxic, so I don’t recommend that you give it the taste test. You might want to give it a sniff, though, and see if it smells at all sweet to you. If you were writing to me about a

2005 Yukon, I’d feel pretty certain that a heater core is what you need. But it’s odd to have one fail on a newer car. The only other possibility is that the vinyl from the car’s dashboard and interior parts is outgassing. That’s what most of us know as the “new car smell.” But it’s actually the sublimation of vinyl particles into the air, which can leave a film on your windshield, too. But you say the film appears every time you use the defroster, so I’d have to lean toward a heater core problem. You’re probably still under warranty, Judy, so go back and ask them to fix it. If they say, “It’s related to the defroster,” ask them how. The only way I can think of is that the heater core is leaking coolant, and it’s blowing onto your windshield. If they have another explanation, write back and let me know what it is. Maybe we can use it to get rid of some of our troublesome customers. Good luck, Judy. *** Auto repairs can be costly!

Clouds threaten quest to see total solar eclipse Not going to lie: I was pretty down during that Sunday. I have wanted to see a total solar eclipse ever since I was a kid because of how unique and rare it is. For many years, I thought the only way I would see one would be by taking an eclipse cruise — most totality paths trace across OE ADSALL oceans, and boats can maneuver away from clouds better than Features Editor cars. Monday morning, the radar I didn’t want to say anything about clouds while preparing for showed enough promise to make the trip. We were go. last week’s solar eclipse.

mood darkening like the sky. We decided to find a new spot. We decided that heading south was the best option. We took 169 back into Kansas City and investigated a park and a residential neighborhood before finding a Dollar General store with a blessedly relatively empty parking lot. With about 30 minutes to spare and only light, thin patches of clouds in the sky, we knew this was the spot. We went in for a final round of snacks. It wasn’t the ideal location: There weren’t a lot of trees near pavement so that we could see the pinhole camera effect of tree leaves projecting the eclipse. We were in a tight, little valley, so we couldn’t see the darkness zoom up to swallow us. We had moved back south, where totality would last only about a minute instead of two. But there were plenty of trees around and a great, unimpeded view of the sky. The cloud cover was just right: The thickness was actually enough to allow some naked-eye viewing. We heard cicadas start to chirp. We saw the sky get darker. Totality was going to happen. But darker, thicker clouds were coming, too — wings of the storm on its way to Smithville. While we waited, another family parked kind of near us. One guy started setting up a camera. But when the clouds rolled in, they freaked out. They packed up and tried to find a different spot. But because it was about 10 minutes to totality, I knew we wouldn’t get anything better. We were already too far south. This was it. The radio station was already playing Soundgarden’s “Black Hole Sun.”

I’ve never been good at counting my blessings. I’ve always been the kind of person to set a goal and work hard for it. Counting blessings has always felt like a consolation prize. But at that moment, it was all I had. We would still see things get dark, I thought. The four of us were in Kansas City on a Monday, and we had trips to Country Club Plaza and Ikea ahead of us. We had already gotten to see the sun in a thin crescent. So I resigned myself — if this was the best it got, then it would be enough. There were worse ways to spend an eclipse day. Snap. The shift to totality felt like it snapped into place. Through a patch in the sky, we saw the sun transform from a bright crescent into a radiant blue and white ring. Everyone in the car started reacting in awe. It was happening. I was seeing a total eclipse. It was everything and nothing like I expected. I thought there would be stars, but the clouds blocked those. I thought there would be more of the yellow rays and beams of the sun’s corona, but those weren’t visible, either. It was perfection in the sky: a geometric circle etched into a black sky. The clouds got thicker and gave us only about three moments of seeing the totality for about 10 seconds each. When the clouds blocked it, the effect was beautiful, but common — it looked like clouds covered a full moon. But in those patches of openness — heaven.

Game great for ﬂashing knowledge with friends

music JEREMIAH TUCKER Music columnist

A few years ago, some friends and I began playing a simple game that only requires a phone and a streaming service. We called it “Quick Draw.” You agree upon a playlist, and two people square off. Someone hits “shuffle” on the playlist, and the first person to draw and make a shooting motion, as if in a showdown in a Western movie, has to name the song title and the artist. Quick Draw began as an improvised party game. The loser in every match had to take a drink, and the fun of it was the spectacle of watching your two friends compete in a silly contest and, frankly, look foolish. The people not in the match generally participated, too, by shouting “I know this” or groaning “this is so easy.” The game is particularly enjoyable for trivia nerds with a musical bent and scratches a similar itch to the one provided by the proliferation of Scene It a decade ago. Everyone loves parading useless knowledge and a chance to show it off, and if they don’t at first, a couple drinks usually finds them joining in. Plus, the ease of streaming and robust data plans makes it easy. The first time we played, we used a ’90s playlist, which was both fun, because that was the majority of the

Sure, you might recognize that hit song that begins with B.B. King hollering “I been down Harlem, babe,” but would you know its Primitive Radio God’s “Standing Outside a Broken Phone Booth with Money in My Hand”? How well do you know the major singles by Presidents of the United States of America? What about that emotional alt-rock ballad from the “Can’t Hardly Wait” soundtrack – “I’m going out for awhile, so I can get high with my friends?” Would you be able to come up with “High” by Feeder? Since that ﬁrst game, I’ve made Quick Draw more absurdly elaborate. I created a game board that the teams progress through by rolling a die. Each number corresponds to one of six playlists, and the player to the left of the roller sends up a teammate to compete in the Quick Draw match. Depending on the game space the roller landed on, if he wins the match he might get an opportunity to answer a trivia question or draw a community

Boggling

brains Christopher Carter ready to blow minds at Missouri Southern BY AMANDA STONE astone@joplinglobe.com

entalist Christopher Carter probably already knew you were going to read this. Known for blowing minds on stages across the country, Carter is set to boggle brains at 7 p.m. on August 29 at MSSU’s Corley Auditorium. The event is free and open to the public. Although Carter is recognized as one of the world’s greatest mind readers, he doesn’t claim to have psychic abilities. He openly admits to being an incredibly skilled observer of human behavior and “people reading.” His uncle let him sit in on a poker game when he was just 8 years old. It was there he began to realize all the ways people communicate without using speech. Carter has been practicing his keen observational skills ever since. In videos of Carter’s performances on YouTube, he bafﬂes his audiences with mind reading, telepathy, hypnotism and fast-paced theatrics. He throws in plenty of humor as well; laughter is just as common as jaws dropping in disbelief at his feats. As a mind reader, motivational speaker and magician, Carter is one of the most popular entertainers on college campuses nationwide and has been Campus Activities magazine’s Entertainer of the Year. He also travels the country giving motivational presentations to corporate groups and businesses.

Crowd participation is key at Carter’s shows. His act is part psychology, part fast-paced theatrics, and all entertainment. One of his unbelievable moves involves Carter placing silver dollars over his eyes, then layers of duct tape and a blind fold. With his sight completely blocked, he identiﬁes items gathered from the audience, knows what playing card someone picked, their locker combination from junior high and their grandmother’s phone number. Audience members have been known to turn on tubes of light handed to them while hypnotized. The stage lights slowly dim, while Carter instructs them to turn on the light tubes in their hands with their minds. As the tubes begin to glow, their faces light up in amazement. Mind-bending stunts such as these keep Carter’s audiences on the edges of their seats. In one of his videos, he said to the audience, “I’m not a fortune teller, and I don’t know your future.” He goes on to give the answer to a question an audience member is only thinking, completely befuddling the participant. He gives away his methods here and there in his shows, which only seems to make the act more mysterious. He says he’s looking for pupils to dilate, eye contact to break or eyes to shift slightly to the left or right. There is no doubt his skills have been honed; Carter is a master of reading people. Joplin minds are about to be blown.

August 27, 2017 • TWO EXHIBITS will be on display at Spiva Center for the Arts. “A Bell(e)s Ball: Porcelain Figures by Linda Ganstrom” will be shown in the Main Gallery. Ganstrom’s porcelain figurines blend the realism of porcelain sculptures with ornamental elements such as steel, silver filigree and tulle skirting for enhanced storytelling. Each piece is inspired by research into the lives of influential women from around the world, with a goal of elevating women and inspiring future achievement. More than 20 figures will be on display during the exhibit, sponsored by Debbie Thompson, the Chapter GA PEO Sisterhood and the Missouri Arts Council. It will be displayed through Sept. 24. In the Regional Gallery, Laurie Spencer will show “Anemoi, Breath of the Morning Sky” ceramic whistles. Spencer creates what she calls “organic sound sculptures” with subtly toned ceramic whistles. Exploration of pre-Columbian water whistles, pitch-jump whistles and fire whistles inspired her work. Twenty-four ceramic pieces will be displayed during the exhibit. The “Anemoi” sculptures are shown thanks to a sponsorship by Sharon Beshore. It will be on display through Sept. 29. All exhibits can be viewed during regular hours, 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Tuesdays through Saturdays.

Local art competition a ‘dedication to professionalism’

8^ 7

MARTA CHURCHWELL Arts columnist

NEOSHO, Mo. – Never underestimate the dedication to professionalism for the Thomas Hart Benton Art Competition and Exhibition, opening on Saturday, Sept. 9. I remember a few years ago when one of the area’s most respected, award-winning artists didn’t get into the show simply because the entry she submitted wasn’t framed according to exhibit speciﬁcations. The coordinators of the competitive — volunteer artists — were unﬂinching in adhering to the show’s intent of serving as a tool for artists’ professional development. There would be no bending of guidelines, not even for award-winning artists. It’s an example of what drove the competitive when it was instituted 22 years ago by local artists

Pam Leisenring and the late Mary Ellen Pitts. It was a show executed by volunteer artists with an aim of promoting professionalism. It was an opportunity for those with years of exhibiting experience to teach newbies how to select the best pieces to enter, how to frame them to meet exhibiting expectations, and how to hang them in a cohesive exhibit. It became the longest running area competitive exhibition produced entirely by artists with no assistance from a community art center, like Spiva Center for the Arts in Joplin or artCentral in Carthage. But the competitive has moved in new directions in recent years. It is now produced by the Neosho Arts Council, and its focus is more about ratcheting up the professionalism of the exhibit than serving as a training ground for artists. Now, there is an online entry process, which is used by virtually every high caliber competitive exhibit nationwide. Formerly, artists simply showed up with entries in hand the day before the exhibit opening; it allowed for no planning for hanging of the exhibit. No longer is the exhibit hung by

two or three artists who were willing to volunteer for the task. Now, processing of entries and hanging of the exhibit is handled by members of the arts council, which has a supply of workers. Additionally, the competitive no longer has the traditional education component that taught artists about such topics as online personal promotion. Now, there is only critiquing by the judge. The competition has also settled into the arts council’s Big Spring Gallery, 216 E. Spring St. In the past, it was held at the civic center, then at Crowder College. The Big Spring Gallery gives it a permanent location. All of this is part of the evolution of any competitive exhibition — taking it up a notch to increase its distinction for quality. One of the things that sets the Benton competitiive apart from most exhibits is its focus entirely on original 2-D work — paintings, drawings, mixed media, pastels and related mediums. No photography, digitally based works, giclees or prints are allowed, nor are 3-D works such as pottery, sculpture or jewelry.

RZA, Lou Ferrigno, others celebrate Stan Lee’s creativity THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

BEVERLY HILLS, Calif. — Stan Lee was the subject of a love fest Tuesday night, as actors, directors, artists and illustrators lauded the Marvel Comics legend for creating a vast universe of fantastic, ﬂawed, righteous and relatable superheroes. Mark Ruffalo, Aisha Tyler, Lou Ferrigno, RZA and comics creator Todd McFarlane were among the speakers at “Extraordinary: Stan Lee,” a tribute hosted by Chris Hardwick and broadcast into more than 150 movie theaters across the country. The two-hour program mixed live appearances with video tributes and animated segments that told the story of Lee’s career. The 94-year-old dreamer behind Spider-Man, Iron Man and scores of other superheroes sat center stage at the Saban Theatre in Beverly Hills as one artist-admirer after another shared how his characters and creative energy inspired them. “I’ve patterned my life after yours,” ‘‘Guardians of the Galaxy” writer-director James Gunn said in a video message.

Ruffalo, Tyler, J.K. Simmons and Kaley Cuoco also appeared via video, though Lee confessed after the ﬁrst clip played: “I can’t hear or understand anything on that screen.” Ferrigno was there in the ﬂesh, posing like the Hulk as he took the stage. “I wouldn’t be alive today if it wasn’t for Stan,” he said, adding that he was inspired by comic books long before he played “The Incredible Hulk” on TV in the late 1970s. McFarlane compared Lee to Walt Disney. Hardwick described him as “Hugh Hefner for nerds.” “Batman” producer Michael Uslan read a loving letter he had originally written Lee on his 90th birthday. “I owe you a big thanks, in a way that nearly matches my thanks to my parents and teachers, who tried to convey the same precepts to me, only they could never do so in such an entertaining and effective way as you did through the magic of your comic book stories,” Uslan said, thanking Lee “on behalf of every generation of comic-book reader.”

HADSALL FROM 2 I cried. Couldn’t help it. I saw something I had been wanting to see all my life, surrounded by people I love more than anything on earth. Last week, I wrote about the coincidence around the 400s — the reason we saw that beautiful circle is because the moon is 400 times smaller than the sun and 400 times closer to the earth than the

sun. When I’ve told some people about that, they see something more than a coincidence — they see a blessing or the signature of a creator or a purpose. I’m sure those same people would read this story and read more into what I’ve written. They might even write me back with reafﬁrmations of faith or proof of divine intervention. To me, however, the sighting was a reward for me and mine that came after education, planning and ﬂexibility. And while we enjoyed a bit of luck, we helped make that luck for ourselves by being aware of our surroundings — chemist

denouncing bigotry on Twitter last week after the violence in Charlottesville, Virginia. RZA recalled buying comic books as a kid and being inspired by characters like FROM 6 Silver Surfer, Luke Cage, Spider-Man and Storm. Animated clips told of Lee’s early days “Those characters inspired me and took as an assistant at Timely Comics. Lee eventually became publisher, and Timely me to a place where there was a world, a Marvel universe, where there wasn’t eventually became Marvel. Along the way, he created such charac- no bigotry; where there was heroes that looked like me, and where I could think ters as Thor, the X-Men, Black Panther and the Fantastic Four, cheered along by that justice and fun would prevail over his wife, Joan, who died last month at age all,” he said. “Wouldn’t that be the greatest world in 93. the world?” Lee said. RZA, a ﬁlmmaker and co-founder of Other Lee disciples appearing onstage Wu-Tang Clan, performed one of Lee’s included documentarian Morgan Spur“Stan’s Soapbox” columns. Originally published in 1968, Lee posted the editorial lock and actors Alan Tudyk, Hal Sparks,

Louis Pasteur was talking about observation when he said, “Chance favors the prepared mind,” after all. So I have none of those messages about faith or divinity. My message is simply this: I saw a total solar eclipse for the ﬁrst time in my life and it was incredible. The eclipse proved to me that dreams do come true, and that as long as you are putting yourself in the position to meet them, you’ll be able to see them, even when clouds get in the way.

When show sponsor Fila presented him with a jacket embroidered with his name, Lee quipped, “In case I get amnesia.” He also offered advice for aspiring cameo actors and said he’s waiting for the ﬁlm academy to create a category for such roles. Lee has cameoed in 38 Marvel productions. Hardwick, who at one point sweetly tied Lee’s shoe, said it’s impossible to quantify his pop-culture contributions: “When you go back and look at 70-plus years of working in the comics industry — not just the characters he’s created but the people he’s inspired — there should be a class at MIT to calculate the ripple effect that Stan has had on pop culture.”

TUCKER FROM 3 chest card for extra points or extended gameplay. The winner of the match can also earn extra points for naming the album the song appeared on and the year of its release. The game ends with a gauntlet — four matches in a row — and the team with the most points wins. Quick Draw is now a patently ridiculous game that I’d be embarrassed to play in front of anyone aside from close friends as well as one I’d also be willing to sell to Spotify for $1 million. But the no-frills original one we invented on the ﬂy remains a fun game if you’re getting ready for a night out. Create your own playlist that reﬂects the tastes of your friends or pick one of the million prefab ones that all the streaming services offer — then start shooting each other. What’s the point, after all, of all this pop culture detritus occupying your frontal lobe if you can’t use it to humiliate your friends?

Heston Blumenthal hosts “Heston’s Fantastical Foods”

t would be easy to assume that, after thousands of years of cooking our food, we’ve figured out all the details, covered all the bases — nothing new under the sun, nothing to see here, move along. Thankfully, that is not the case! Food pioneers on the cutting edge of the culinary world are regularly coming up with astounding new ideas, and British chef Heston Blumenthal is at the vanguard of culinary exploration. He’s one of the U.K.’s most celebrated chefs and is frequently seen on TV screens across the Atlantic. In his latest TV series, Blumenthal experiments with food some more, this time focusing specifically on size: he’s on a mission to see just how BIG he can make some food favorites. “Heston’s Fantastical Food” premiered last Friday on Cooking Channel, and you can catch a new episode airing Friday, Sept. 1. In this episode, Heston tackles one of the most fantastic of food memories from many childhoods: the ice cream truck. He gets his very own decked-out truck, and devises a plan to craft the biggest ice cream cone the world has ever seen, and to share it with an entire sweet-toothed town. His plan calls for the finished product to stand over 16 feet tall, with a weight of more than 2,000 pounds — that’s so big, it takes over a month for the tasty treat to freeze! In another new episode next week, the culinary inventor turns his gaze to a daily British ritual: the tea break.

Absolutely fantastical: Food gets super-sized with Chef Heston Blumenthal By Andrew Warren TV Media

packet of tea biscuits of record-shattering size. In the weeks that follow, he builds his own Willy Wonka-inspired candy shop, where he tries to make a meal out of chewing gum, as well as the world’s biggest Rolos. Later, he crafts his own pub out of a giant hollowed-out pie, complete with a pool table that’s made of fish and tartar sauce. OK, so maybe making giant versions of everyday foods isn’t the usual sort of ground-breaking culinary techniques the chef usually comes up with, but that isn’t the point here. No, the point is that food doesn’t always have to be the same: it can be fun, it can be exciting, but most of all, it should be delicious. Catch a new episode of “Heston’s Fantastical Food” airing Friday, Sept. 1, on Cooking Channel.

My Cousin Rachel

A Family Man

When his cousin and guardian, Ambrose, dies while in Italy, 25-year-old Philip becomes convinced that Rachel (Weisz), Ambrose’s young wife, murdered him to inherit his estate.

Dane gets worried when, during one of the increasingly rare times he gets to spend with his son, he notices strange bruises on Ryan’s skin. Soon the worst is confirmed: his boy has leukemia and may not have much time left in the world, and Dane suddenly feels a new sense of urgency to spend time with his son while he still has the chance.

Ilfenesh Hadera and Dwayne Johnson in a scene from “Baywatch”

Master’s level

When devoted lifeguard Mitch Buchannon (Johnson) adds three brand new lifeguards to his team, one in particular stands out, and not for the right reasons. Matt Brody (Efron), a former Olympic swimmer, takes the lifeguard position as a way of completing compulsory community service and doesn’t take the job as seriously as he should. Like oil and water, the two men just cannot seem to work together, but when packages of drugs —and even worse, bodies — start washing up on their peaceful beach, they’re forced to set aside their differences to restore peace to their oceanfront paradise. Director: Seth Gordon. Stars: Dwayne Johnson, Zac Efron, Priyanka Chopra, Alexandra Daddario, Kelly Rohrbach, Jon Bass, Ilfenesh Hadera. 2017. 116 min. Action.
