Biden Vs. Trump

Uncertainty Dominates Final Stretch Of Presidential Run NEW YORK (AP) — Within President Donald Trump’s campaign, some privately feared the worst heading into the national conventions. They worried a strong showing by Democrat Joe Biden, combined with an underwhelming performance by Trump, would lock in the certainty of a blowout loss that would essentially end the election by September. But as the candidates move beyond trouble-free conven-

tions and into the final phase of the 2020 election season, both sides acknowledge the contest is tightening. And after months of running an almost entirely virtual campaign because of the pandemic, Biden has decided to launch a new phase of in-person events to help blunt any Trump gains. “This campaign has always known that it’s going to be a close race, it’s going to be a tough race,” Biden’s senior adviser Anita Dunn said, noting that no Democratic presiden-

TRENTON ALUMNI ASSOCIATION

tial candidate since 1964 has earned more than 52.9% of the vote. She added: “It’s a polarized nation and we expect this kind of tightening.” That leaves Democrats and Republicans preparing for a 64-day sprint to the finish that is widely expected to be one of the most turbulent and chaotic periods in modern American history. Each side cast the other as an existential threat to America’s future as they offered vot-

ers starkly different versions of reality over the last two weeks of carefully scripted conventions. Democrats attacked Trump as an incompetent racist with autocratic tendencies who is failing to protect the nation from the pandemic as he actively undermines democracy. Republicans largely ignored the pandemic while attacking Joe Biden as a senile lifetime politician controlled by his

OPENING NIGHT FLOP Trenton Throttled By Brookfield In Season Opener

SUMMARY Brookfield TRENTON

28 16 6 0 — 50 0 0 0 0 — 0

First Quarter

With exactly five minutes until the Trenton Bulldogs kicked off the 2020 season, the familiar bell echoed across C.F. Russell Stadium. With Metallica’s “For Whom The Bell Tolls” blaring on the stadium speaker system, the Bulldogs tore through a banner and raced onto the field while a crowd doing its best to social distance in the stands cheered raucously. It had been 181 days since Trenton High School last competed in a MSHSAA-sanctioned sporting event – the Class 3, District 14 girls’ basketball championship game back on Feb. 29. Friday’s football game with Brookfield represented a return to some normalcy, the return of live sports for a community starved to see its local athletes competing again. Seniors were honored prior to the contest. It was a celebration. Until it wasn’t. Once the game started, it didn’t take long for the Bulldogs to implode in horrific fashion, tail spinning to a 50-0 defeat and marring the return of high school sports in Trenton. Brookfield scored a long touchdown on just its second snap of the ball game. Trenton, meanwhile, fumbled the ball away on its second play of the game. Things escalated from there and the Bulldogs trailed 28-0 after one quarter and 440 at halftime. The game ended with Trenton shut out, unable to pinpoint the loss on any one area of underperformance. There were too many. “We let them jump out with two quick scores,” Trenton coach Kevin Hixson said. “We didn’t take care of the ball and defensively we weren’t as physical as we are capable of being. We just looked like we weren’t ready to play. I don’t

know what else to say.” There were turnovers. Trenton’s fumble on its second play was the first of four giveaways in the ball game. Brookfield cashed in on all but one, scoring three times after a Trenton fumble. After the fourth, one which occurred just before halftime and set the visitors up inside the 20-yard line, Brookfield coach Scott Stevens – a 2008 Trenton graduate – called off the dogs and opted not to punch in another touchdown, content to take his 44-0 lead into the locker room at the break. “They weren’t caused turnovers, we dropped the football,” Hixson said. “I told the kids I’m going to put this on me and the coaches. I’ve never had situations where we were too many men on the field or not enough guys on the field. That’s just a lack of discipline. That’s got to be fixed. We have got to do a better job on both sides of the ball, we have got to get our heads in the

game. For me it is just disappointing. I really, really thought it might be a 28-14 game, something like that. I didn’t picture the final outcome that it was. We’re going to have to do a better job of coaching the kids.” There were big plays yielded. Four of Brookfield’s seven touchdowns in the game came on runs of 20 yards or more and two of those were runs of over 50 yards. Trenton also allowed a punt return to their own 24, setting up a Brookfield touchdown, and allowed an 18-yard run for a 2point conversion after a chop block on the initial try moved Brookfield back 15 yards. Some of what happened Friday night could be explained away with the experience discrepancy Trenton faced. Brookfield was a senior-heavy squad with players entering their fourth year in Stevens’ program. Trenton, meanwhile, had just three offensive starters back, two of which are in new roles, and just five starters back on the defensive side. So Trenton was at a disadvantage there. But that excuse doesn’t cover 50 points – not according to coach Hixson anyway. “I don’t want to use that as an excuse,” Hixson said. “Our youth and inexperience in week 1 is there, but it’s not 50 points. We don’t play that many young guys on defense. We have some older guys who haven’t played in some of those positions, but I don’t want to use that as an excuse. We just mentally weren’t ready and weren’t prepared. When you don’t have a lot of experi-

ence and it starts running downhill it just really rolls and that’s kind of what happened to us tonight.” Trenton has incurred some bad defeats, most recently to Lathrop and Maryville teams that would be state title contenders. The book is yet to be written on the 2020 Brookfield Bulldogs, but Friday night was definitely an indication that Stevens’ crew is finally ready to have some success under the former Trenton running back, who was just 5-25 overall as the head coach at Brookfield entering Friday night’s contest. Brookfield’s quarterback Derek Leibhart led all rushers in the contest with 189 yards and four touchdowns on just seven carries. Fullback Trace Alexander added 109 yards

and three touchdowns on 11 carries for the visitors. “I don’t want to take anything away from Brookfield,” Hixson said. “They came out and they were prepared. I didn’t think that they were 50 points better than us, but we turned the ball over four times and gave them opportunities. So, we go back to the drawing board and watching film and get prepared for East Buchanan.” Trenton will travel to Gower to face East Buchanan in week 2. All East Buchanan did on Friday was defeat South Harrison – a team that was voted as the Grand River Conference frontrunner in the league’s annual preseason coaches poll. The game in Gower is scheduled for a 7 p.m. kickoff.

Peaks And (Platte) Valleys Bulldogs Drop Season Opener At Home, 11-4 PLATTE VALLEY 11 TRENTON 4

The Trenton High School softball program has a lot of tradition. Entering 2020, however, Trenton knew there would be a lot of work to be done to keep the program in its lofty setting among Trenton sports teams. Saturday reinforced those beliefs as the Bulldogs suffered an 11-4 defeat at the hands of visiting Platte Valley on Johnson Field. Trenton yielded runs in all but the first frame as Platte Valley ran away with the season-opening victory. “It looked like the first game of the year,” Trenton coach Joel Hultman said. “We made a lot of mistakes and saw some girls get down on themselves. It’s hard to replicate game speed at practice. I think the girls will clean up a lot of those mistakes. You can’t give the team more than three outs on defense and you can’t run into outs on offense.” Trenton committed four errors in the contest and that, combined with Platte Valley’s 13 hits, led to the 11 runs scored by the visitors. Trenton got on the board in

the bottom of the second inning with Platte Valley holding a 2-0 advantage. Freshman Madi Moore drove in Shay Westerhof with a two-out single for the first hit and RBI of her career. She would add another RBI in Trenton’s threerun seventh, finishing the game 2-for-3 with the two RBIs and a run scored. “You never know what you are going to get when you play freshmen,” Hultman said. “I had a talk with all the young players yesterday and told them I want them focusing on making plays and not just avoiding mistakes. It looked like Madi took that to heart. She was relaxed in the field and at the plate. When you have that mindset going in, good things can happen. She definitely made the most of her opportunities. She made a throwing mistake, but learned from it. She had a solid day for us and I look forward to her getting better as the year goes on.” Maci Moore added a tworun double in the seventh to account for Trenton’s other two runs. The three-run seventh was a positive sign for Trenton, which trailed 11-1 entering the frame. “I saw a group of girls give everything they have for seven innings,” Hultman said. “As a coach I can’t ask for more. In the seventh inning they could have mailed it in but they did everything they could to get runners on and move them in. “I’m just happy we got to

play. Every minute we get together is a blessing.” Westerhof was 2-for-3 at the plate with two runs scored, joining Madi Moore as the only multi-hit performers for Trenton in the game. Jenna Reeter took the loss in the circle for Trenton, allowing 11 runs, eight earned on 13 hits and six walks. She struck out six batters in the loss. The loss established an 0-1 record for the Bulldogs to start the season. Trenton was scheduled to play at Albany on Monday and will play host to Putnam County in the Grand River Conference opener tonight (Tuesday) at Johnson Field in Trenton at 5:30.

Mid-Buchanan — Javan Noyes 1yard run (kick). Second Quarter

Starting the season against a potential state title contender usually isn’t easy. For the Princeton Tigers, it wasn’t. Princeton hosted MidBuchanan and its highly touted quarterback Javan Noyes on Friday at Eddie Allen Field and the end result was a 41-6 loss one in which Noyes ran for four touchdowns and tossed another. But early on Princeton was able to keep the game competitive. The Tigers would trail by just a score after one quarter, but things went downhill from there. “Defensively we made them work early but just couldnt get off the field when it mattered,” Princeton coach Nathan Powell said. “Mid-Buch was able to consistently convert when they needed to and that’s a credit to the mental makeup of their team and the job coach (Aaron) Fritz and his staff have done. In the second quarter they were able to string together a couple of drives to go up four scores going into halftime. Offensively we are still making too many mistakes and we really need to get that cleaned up this week.” Princeton got in the endzone once, coming on a 1-yard run from Eli Henke. Henke finished the game with 30 yards rushing, second on the team behind Ben Berwanger’s 35. While the loss stung, Powell was happy his team got to see a strong opponent like MidBuchanan, rather than a pushover in week 1. “All the credit goes to MidBuch for being prepared and solid in all phases,” Powell

In Aftermath Of Hurricane Laura, Residents Worry About Help LAKE CHARLES, La. (AP) — In a matter of hours last week, Hurricane Laura tore through the tire shop Layla Winbush's family started just under a year ago, reducing most of it to rubble and scattering hundreds of tires across the lot. The storm also damaged her home, which now reeks of mold. Federal and state officials are now on the ground to help residents with home repairs and hotel stays. But Winbush said she feels alone, particularly after seeing a video of President Donald Trump, who visited the area Saturday, joking with Gulf Coast officials that they could sell copies of his signature for $10,000. “We can’t depend on the president. We can’t depend on nobody,” she said. “We’ll just take what we have and get it done.” As evacuated Lake Charles residents began returning home, many worried that they wouldn’t have enough support from the both the federal and state governments as they face a rebuilding process certain to take several months, if not longer. Louisiana Gov. John Bel Edwards on Sunday warned that residents were in for a long recovery. “We’re going to be working really, really hard on the power outages, on the water systems, on the housing,” he said at a news conference. "But none of this is going to be easy. It’s

not going to happen as quickly as most people would like for sure.” Crews were starting to take chain saws to fallen trees and patch roofs, but most homes in Lake Charles wrecked by the storm were still untouched. The Category 4 hurricane, which made landfall Thursday just south of Lake Charles near Cameron, Louisiana, before abating nearly 12 hours later, packed 150-mph (240kph) winds and a storm surge that officials said was as high as 15 feet (4.5 meters) in some areas. So far 18 deaths in Texas and Louisiana have been attributed to the storm; more than half of those people were killed by carbon monoxide poisoning from the unsafe operation of generators. The Federal Emergency Management Agency sent hundreds of workers to the region to help with search and rescue and other efforts. As of Sunday, more than 52,500 people had applied for FEMA assistance, and the agency had conducted over 200 home inspections and distributed more than $650,000 in assistance, said Tony Robinson, FEMA's administrator for the region. The Louisiana National Guard, meanwhile, had handed out hundreds of thousands of bottles of water and meals and about 14,000 tarps, the governor said. But the needs were substantial. In hard-hit Calcasieu Parish, some

waited hours in line for tarps, water and other supplies at distribution sites, said parish spokesperson Tom Hoefer. The entire parish had been without power, and in many areas, including the parish seat of Lake Charles that's home to more than 78,000 people, water had not been flowing from taps, he said. Several residents Sunday said the water supply was still intermittent. Crews will have to rebuild hundreds of transmission towers along with resetting downed power poles and lines, clearing debris and assessing damage, said Scott Aaronson, vice president of security and preparedness for the Edison Electric Institute, the association of investor-owned electric companies in the U.S. The association said roughly 409,000 customers were still without power late Sunday as a result of the storm. Insured losses to properties in the U.S. will be near $9 billion, according to projections from a Boston-based disaster modeling firm. That includes wind and storm surge damage to residential, commercial and industrial properties and automobiles, Karen Clark & Co. said. There were an estimated $200 million in insured losses in the Caribbean, the company estimates. In Lake Charles, many people in were still staying outside town. But

James Townley said he would remain in his home, as he did during the storm. The front of his trailer had been blown away, leaving a single toilet exposed to the elements. Townley lay on a sofa in front of a fan — connected to a neighbor's generator — circulating hot, humid air. The 56-year-old's shirt was off, revealing scars from the open-heart surgery he had several years ago. He said he was out of medication for his heart and kidneys and had requested aid from FEMA — but not heard back. “I’m just going to sit here and do what I can do,” he said. “Maybe I’ll make it, maybe I won’t.” One silver pickup truck winding through Lake Charles’ streets carried four generations of a single family — six people inside the cab and three riding on the flatbed along with suitcases and bags filled with belongings. The family was visiting the homes where they each lived for the first time since the storm, assessing what they had lost and what had been spared. Driving the pickup was 53-year-old Patricia Mingo Lavergne. She was worried about how her home had fared, but also where everyone would sleep Sunday night. When Lavergne parked outside the house she shares with her husband, a duplex just north of the train tracks

bisecting the city, several family members began to pray and wipe away tears. The pecan tree that long shaded her front yard had cracked and fallen in front of the front door. Insulation had burst through the ceiling and fallen in tufts over one bedroom. In another room, she pulled out two drawers filled with neatly folded clothes saved for her daughter’s child, due in January. She wiped a mix of sweat and tears with her shirt. Eventually, everyone in the family was able to find a place to stay. They have requested help from FEMA, but Lavergne said she didn't have a checking account in which to receive federal money. "It’s frustrating," she said. “I’ve already been going through a lot and this is a lot more on my shoulders.” Winbush, 19, and her family were staying with relatives in Beaumont, Texas, over an hour’s drive away.

Benjamin and Winbush stayed cheerful as they described all the services the shop offered and the successes they had building it.

George Floyd? Donald Trump? Hero Statue Nominations Are In By The Associated Press George Floyd. Sacagawea. The guy who invented air conditioning. Americans' suggestions of suitable statues for President Donald Trump's planned National Garden of American Heroes are in, and they look considerably different from the predominantly white worthies that the administration has locked in for many of the pedestals. The outside nominations are more activist, less white and far more indigenous. Well, for the most part, anyway. The administration also is leaving open the possibility of a statue of Trump himself in the Trump-created statue park after receiving what it said were “multiple nominations" of the president. Trump ordered up the statue park during a Fourth of July speech at Mount Rushmore, and set up a task force on a 60-day deadline to get the idea going. He also mused in a tweet that it would be a “good idea” to carve his own face into that memorial. The task force charged with executing Trump's vision – with all of the publicly listed members white — says it sent out thousands of requests to state and local officials for suggestions, both for possible sites around the country and for heroes to honor. Its findings are due to be given to Trump by Tuesday. Many of the nominations stand in stark contrast to the list the Trump administration came up with, which mandated inclusion of a few dozen mainstream and conservative figures, from John Adams to the late Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia. Frederick Douglass, Harriet Tubman and a few other Black leaders made the Trump administration’s hero list, but not anyone known for their Native American, Hispanic or Asian heritage. Suggestions from many Republican gover-

nors, by contrast, were heavy with civil rights leaders, while many local officials pushed for a broader definition for what it means to be a hero. When Denver-area Douglas County Commissioner Lora Thomas got the solicitation for nominations, “For me and my fellow commissioners, it was immediately a unanimous decision." They urged the task force to consider a statue to Kendrick Castillo, an 18-year-old high school senior shot to death last year while lunging at a gunman in his British literature class. Eight people were wounded in the attack in suburban Denver by two student gunmen at STEM School Highlands Ranch. “A person of distinguished courage. Bravery. Good deeds. Noble,” Thomas said in a phone interview, reciting the dictionary definitions of a hero. “Gosh darn it, if Kendrick Castillo isn’t a hero, I don’t know who is.” Lehigh County, Pennsylvania, Commissioner Amy Zanelli, meanwhile, suggested George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, and other Black Americans whose killings by police sparked massive street protests. The summer protests also spun off a debate over statues around the country honoring slaveholders and Confederates. Trump deployed federal forces to protect those monuments from protesters, embracing their defense as a lawand-order issue as he seeks reelection. Floyd and the others “have shaped the future of America by finally bringing the systemic racial injustices present in our policing to the forefront of politics,” Zanelli wrote. Most governors, including almost every Democrat, dismissed the Trump administration’s request for suggestions, according to the Interior Department's website on Friday afternoon.

It's the latest example of governors ignoring White House requests — ranging from statues, to school openings to nursing homes testing — amid the coronavirus pandemic. “I haven’t given it a moment’s thought,” Kansas Gov. Laura Kelly told The Associated Press. “I have other things to do.” Some were highly critical of the effort as an ill-timed political stunt. “We would encourage the White House to spend their time on the response to the coronavirus,” said Pennsylvania Gov. Tom Wolf’s spokeswoman Lyndsay Kensinger. The Trump administration said it received “robust, bipartisan responses” from around the country. “It’s a shame that some governors are unwilling to celebrate and recognize the significant achievements of their own residents who have heroically impacted our nation’s history,” Interior Department spokesman Ben Goldey said. The list of heroes submitted by Republican governors included some obvious choices — civil rights hero Rosa Parks; Thurgood Marshall, the first African American Supreme Court justice; and Sacagawea, the Lewis and Clark expedition's indispensable guide — that stick out for their lack of inclusion in Trump's list. Prominent Native Americans highlighted some state and local nominations. “We have so much history in Montana and our country,” said Yellowstone County Commissioner John Ostlund, a Republican, talking about his board's decision to nominate revered Crow Tribe leaders as well as cowboys, famous explorers and others. "It was a conscious decision to include all sides of our history. All of the history ... I don’t want to erase anything,” Ostlund said. Favorite sons and daughters little known out-

side their borders also made the cut — a National Rifle Association president, Harry Truman's vice president, air conditioner inventor Willis Carrier. Asked about what it said were many nominations for a statue of Trump, Goldey, the Interior spokesman, pointed to Commissioner Steve Smith of Custer County, Idaho. Smith in a letter praised “the President’s willingness to fight back with history and important individuals that have shaped this country into the blessings it is.” The four federal agency heads that Trump specifically named to the heroes task force are white. Asked if that was appropriate for a diverse country, Goldey responded, “Your question is completely offensive.” Goldey stressed the task force would not be making the final cut for heroes. He repeatedly declined to say who would be, however, including if it would be Trump making the pick. Experts in memorials said the process appeared rushed. “The people who determine these things need to be representative of a broad constituency," said Harriet F. Senie with City College of New York, who specializes in public art and memorials. “Usually these things are years in planning and there are national committees, advisory committees.” The selection so far, “it sounds like hodgepodge lodge,” Senie said. “Seriously." Jim Grossman, executive director of the American Historical Association, said “it would be a mistake" to honor Trump or any living person. For public monuments, “that's a nonpartisan rule that pertains to anybody, regardless of where they are on the political spectrum. And I would defend that up and down all day.”

CHURCH

“A Word From...” by the Trenton Area Ministerial Alliance

Terry Cobb St. Philip’s Episcopal Church ORDINARY TIME IN AN EXTRAORDINARY SUMMER The six seasons of the church calendar consist of Advent, Christmas, Epiphany, Lent, Easter, and the Season after Pentecost which we are currently in. This present season is the longest, beginning as the name implies immediately after Pentecost Sunday when the church celebrates the Holy Spirit descending upon the Apostles and lasting until Advent which begins four Sundays before Christmas. Although it is also called Ordinary Time in many denominations, there is nothing average or ho-hum about the Season after Pentecost just as this summer of 2020 is anything but normal. The term “ordinary” is used because it is not dedicated to a specific observance like Advent leading to Christmas and Christ’s birth or Lent leading to Easter and Christ’s Resurrection. The Season after Pentecost focuses on how the Holy Spirit sends us out in mission through evangelism and outreach just as it sent the Apostles on Pentecost Sunday. The readings during this season

guide us on how to use the gifts God has blessed us to support and nurture each other, the church, and society as a whole. To emphasize this, the church uses the color green to remind us that this is a season of growth, not only in Nature, but in the Christian faith and fellowship. Every Sunday during the Season after Pentecost, the gospel readings acquaint us more fully with Jesus. We study his parables and teachings and apply them to what they mean in our lives and in today’s world. We learn about God’s love, mercy, forgiveness, compassion, and justice for all persons through Jesus’ life, ministry, and miracles. These lessons about the power of God’s love inspire us to live that love. Just as Jesus miraculously opened the eyes of the blind, our eyes are opened to the suffering and injustices in the world. Just as Jesus miraculously fed thousands with only a few loaves of bread, we are shown that with seemingly few resources, we can make a difference in the lives of many if we put our abundance of faith and love into action. Ordinary Time teaches us that the love and lessons of Jesus are needed in these extraordinary times more than ever.

With that reality in mind, our goal in reopening our country should not be to stay closed until this virus goes away. That just isn’t practical or even possible. Such a shutdown would destroy our economy, cost working families dearly, and ultimately lead to unfathomable pain, suffering, and even death as a result. We might never fully understand the toll such a drastic action would inflict upon our country. What we can do is reopen safely and responsibly to make sure our healthcare system remains ready to fight this virus while getting millions of Americans back to work. Thanks to the incredible leadership of President Trump and Gov. Mike Parson, we’re doing just that. Together, they’ve led the way in reopening our country and our state responsibly and safely, allowing millions of Americans to get back to work and provide for their families.

St. Louis Officer Dies After Being Shot By Gunman ST. LOUIS, Mo. (AP) — A St. Louis police officer who was a “hero” to his family died Sunday after being shot in the head by a barricaded gunman on the city's south side, authorities said. Officer Tamarris L. Bohannon, 29, had been with the department for 3 1/2 years. A second officer who was shot in the leg was treated and released after the shooting around 6 p.m. Saturday in the South Grand neighborhood near Tower Grove Park, St. Louis Police Department spokeswoman Officer Michelle Woodling said. Woodling said the second officer is 30 and has been on the force about six months. The 43-year-old suspect was taken into custody Sunday morning, Woodling said. Mayor Lyda Krewson said in a statement Sunday night that she was “heartbroken” at Bohannon’s death. “I’ve had the privilege of spending some time with his family under these extraordinarily challenging circumstances. They’re wonderful people and immensely proud of the way he selflessly served and protected our community with distinction and honor for more than three years.” “This is a horrific reminder of the dangers our brave men and women willingly face everyday to keep us safe ... This is a terrible, senseless tragedy.” A photo of a note police said came from Bohannon's family was posted on the department's Twitter page after the announcement of his death. “He is a hero to many, but most importantly to his loving wife and three incredible children,” read the note that referred to Bohannon as “Bo” and asked

for “prayers and support in the days ahead.” St. Louis Metropolitan Police Department Chief John Hayden said the gunman ordered a family out of their home at gunpoint and barricaded himself inside for almost 12 hours. Officers were searching for another reported shooting victim when the gunman shot Bohannon in the head and the other officer in the leg, Hayden said. The officers were “trying to do their job, that’s all they’re trying to do and they’re suffering under gunfire,” Hayden said, adding that the incidents are part of “a surge in violence” this summer. He asked residents to pray for the officers. Hayden said eight of his officers have been shot in the line of duty since June 1. “We’re trying to cope through a very trying summer, and it’s very difficult. It’s very difficult,” he said. While the man was barricaded inside, officers armed with rifles and a SWAT team assembled outside. Police closed surrounding streets and warned residents to stay inside. Police used a bullhorn to order the suspect out and fired tear gas into the house, but fired no gunshots, the department said. The man was taken into custody around 5:30 a.m. Police have released no details about how the standoff came to an end. Homeowners Mimi and Steve Haag said they were trying to call 911 to help another man who had been shot when the gunman just walked into their home. “I saw then he had a gun,” Steve Haag told the St. Louis Post-Dispatch. “He was very

calm standing there with it in his hand and he just says to Mimi: ‘Ma’am you need to get off the phone.’” The Haags escaped through the back door and were unhurt in their encounter with the gunman. Police were unable to locate the other man who was apparently shot and wounded. Krewson tweeted her condolences following the incident. “Please keep our injured officers and all the men and women of @SLMPD in your thoughts and prayers as this situation continues to develop.

Columbia Bars Must Close Early Amid Spike In Virus Cases

O'FALLON, Mo. (AP) — With more than 300 University of Missouri students infected with the coronavirus and cases spiking in the surrounding community, Columbia's city health director on Friday announced a new order that limits crowd sizes and requires bars to close early. Stephanie Browning, who leads the health department for Columbia and Boone County, said at a news conference that new cases of COVID-19 “are increasing exponentially, it feels like.” She cited a county test positivity rate of 44.6% last week as evidence of “widespread community transmission.” The 44.6% positivity rate is roughly four times the county's 11% rate before students returned to classes on Aug. 19. It is nearly eight times the seven-day rolling average rate for the U.S. as of Thursday, which was 5.9%, according to data from The COVID Tracking Project. Effective Friday, public gatherings must be limited to no more than 20 people, with some exceptions. Bars and restaurants must cut off alcohol sales at 9 p.m. and close no later than 10 p.m. “I’m certain they’re worried about the economic impact of this,” Browning said. “We all are.” Businesses found in violation could face prosecution. Browning said the order was deemed necessary because people gathering at bars are failing to adhere to previous guidance issued by the health department. “What we’re seeing in our violations is they’re coming late at night,” Browning said. “Big groups gathering. They’re not wearing their masks, they’re not social distancing.” The university's coronavirus dashboard cites 306 active cases among students. University of Missouri System President and MU Chancellor Mun Choi said none of the students who have tested positive were hospitalized. He said the university is not currently considering going to online-only classes, a move made recently by the University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill. “Going forward, we’re going to continue to

enforce our policies on the campus and off-campus and ensure that we continue to keep this community safe,” Choi said. The university announced Thursday that Family Weekend, scheduled for Sept. 25-27, was canceled. The Homecoming parade scheduled for Oct. 17 also was called off. Boone County has seen a big spike in new confirmed cases since classes resumed earlier this month. The county has reported nearly 500 new infections since Aug. 21. Browning said it’s not just students— cases are rising among permanent residents of Columbia, too. Missouri’s health department reported 1,418 new confirmed virus cases on Friday, bringing the total since the pandemic began to 80,992 The state also announced 14 new deaths, bringing the statewide total to 1,464. The state has the nation’s 10th highest per capita rate of infection, 18.33 per 100,000 residents, according to data compiled by Johns Hopkins University. Meanwhile, the state has no mask mandate, but several local jurisdictions have their own, including Boone County. Jefferson County, near St. Louis, joined the list Thursday, when the county health board voted 3-2 to require people to wear masks inside businesses and other places where social distancing cannot be maintained. St. Louis city and county enacted mask requirements last month. With Busch Stadium in St. Louis devoid of baseball fans because of the pandemic, it may find another use. The Cardinals volunteered the ballpark complex as a voting site for the November election. The St. Louis Board of Election Commissioners is looking into the feasibility. Cardinals pitcher Jack Flaherty approached the team about the idea after seeing LeBron James’ More Than a Vote campaign work with the Los Angeles Dodgers to establish Dodger Stadium as a voting site, the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reported.

Dear Annie: I have been struggling with an issue for a while and need some perspective. My son married a truly wonderful woman, and they now have two sons under the age of 6, whom my husband and I adore. They live in another state, about a 12-hour drive or an one-hour flight from us, and we try to see them every two months or so. Every summer, they come to our beloved family vacation home at the beach where my kids and their cousins spent their summers. It makes us so happy that our son and daughter-in-law love this special place, as do their kids. That just fills our hearts. The difficult part for my husband and me is that our son has about a week of vacation and only wants us and his intown sibling and kids to join them for a few days. We rent a separate home so that they can have the family home to themselves, but it breaks our hearts that they aren't more anxious to spend more time with us, as I'm sure they know how much we want to see them and our

grandsons. We have many friends who rent a place at the beach and spend an entire week with their whole family. Our son loves us and loves seeing us with his children, but we often get the feeling that we are intruding or not completely welcome. This happens in his own home at times. My husband and I do our best to be respectful of boundaries and are truly in awe of their parenting and only have praise to offer. I know our daughter-in-law loves us and often says she feels lucky to have us as in-laws. There really are no complicated issues or resentments. I believe our son's need for closeness and time together is different from ours. How do I reconcile this? I'd like to be less sad and hurt by this. But it's hard when other families seem to be so anxious to spend as much time as possible together. I'm hoping for some advice or perspective that helps me just to accept this and not resent it. -- Trying to Be An Adult

It seems that there’s nothing quite like a discount to encourage diners back to U.K. restaurants. Hungry, and often nervous, customers are being enticed back by a British government program that provides discounts from Monday to Wednesday during August. Under the program, sitting customers can receive a 50% discount on food and non-alcoholic drinks at participating restaurants up to 10 pounds ($13) per person. Government figures show that food outlets claimed for 64 million discounted meals in the first three weeks of August. Food outlets from Michelin-starred outlets to international burger chains can

then get the discount reimbursed by the government within five days. The so-called “Eat Out to Help Out” program is being used by around 85,000 restaurants, or nearly two-thirds of those eligible, in the hope that it will encourage people to return to dining out following the coronavirus lockdown, particularly in the traditionally fallow early-week period. Many of those participating say it’s been a lifeline but worry about what will happen when it expires and winter comes. Restaurants and other food outlets such as pubs were only allowed to reopen in early July, more than three months after they were closed as part of the lockdown.

Dear Trying to Be An Adult: On the one hand, it is understandable that you want to spend as much time as possible with your son and grandkids. On the other hand, it is understandable that your son only has a limited amount of time off due to work and wanting to spend time with his wife and kids. This is a case where you can look at the glass as half full or half empty. The more you focus and appreciate the time that your son and his kids are there, the more they will want to be there. It is an interesting thing about gratitude: What we appreciate appreciates. As far as your friends whose kids seem to spend more time with them, always remember that comparison is the thief of joy. Don't let comparing with others steal your joy. It's more important and meaningful to have quality time with your family than some arbitrary quantity of time. "Ask Me Anything: A Year of Advice From Dear Annie" is out now! Annie Lane's debut book - featuring favorite columns on love, friendship, family and etiquette -- is available as a paperback and e-book.

According to Officer Ashley Pachecoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s accident report, the mishap occurred when a car driven by Barbara L.

Theisen of Gower. Theisen said he was pulling out of a business lot on Ninth Street when the accident occurred, with witnesses stating that he spun his vehicleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s tires as he pulled out of the lot.
