EMS drugs an issue

At the request of Ambulance Director Ryan Sell, Allen County detective Anthony Maness will investigate a drug issue within the department. “Sell came to my office on Monday and asked that we look into a discrepancy,” Sheriff Bryan Murphy said. “He said one of his staff twice had reported problems
One morning this week, as he is wont to do, Clyde Toland was sequestered on his front porch, reading. A friend dropped by. As conversation meandered, Toland demonstrated with his left arm how his dedication to therapy continued to help him recover from debilitating effects of a June 2010 stroke. He’ll never give up, Toland said, and meets therapy sessions with religious zeal. Same may be said of the Iola attorney and historian’s dedication to his neighborhood, a core part of what was to become Iola today soon after the city was founded in 1859. When two houses in the same block as his, 211 S. Colborn, fell on hard times, Toland bought them with two things in mind, neither to make money. “I wanted to help with the housing stock in Iola and maintain stability in a historical part of town,” Toland observed. “Early settlers were part of the neighborhood, Rhoades Addition, and just a block from the original townsite. Steve French, a contractor who specializes in restoration, did much of the work on the house at 221 S. Colborn, including a vaulted ceiling that makes a difference in the ambiance of the dwelling. “It was in terrible shape when I bought it,” Toland said. “The flue had fallen in, leading to leaks from rainfall and there was a hole in the
U.S. airlines to begin flights to Cuba HAVANA (AP) — Six airlines won permission Friday to resume scheduled commercial air service from the U.S. to Cuba for the first time in more than five decades, another milestone in President Barack Obama’s campaign to normalize relations between Cold War foes. The airlines — American, Frontier, JetBlue, Silver Airways, Southwest and Sun Country — were approved by the Department of Transportation for a total of 155 roundtrip flights per week. They’ll fly from five U.S. cities to nine cities in Cuba See CUBA | Page A3

Journalism beckons for Register intern By RICK DANLEY The Iola Register
It’s hard to credit the melancholy predictions concerning the future of print journalism when you’re presented with an up-and-coming reporter as talented as Jason Tidd. Tidd, an incoming senior at K-State — and the news editor of that school’s paper, “The Collegian” — began his summer internship with the Register last week. It’s a familiar alliance. “I actually delivered newspapers for the Register from when I was a third grader to when I was a freshman in high school,” remembers Tidd. “And my sisters deliver See TIDD | Page A6

children are familiarized with work at the mental health center and the disease, in part to stem the stigma that is attached to it. If they learn early mental health problems are a disease like any other, they will be more accepting. The young also are warned about suicide, told to seek help if they feel so depressed they think that final solution might be an option. Hoag went on to describe what is done by SEK case workers and other employees to help those in its six-county reach.

The Council is slated to discuss departmental budgets for the city clerk’s, police, street and alley, fire and EMS, administration, code enforcement and library.

with drugs that had expired and were supposed to be safely locked away.” The sheriff did not elaborate beyond that, except to say the drug mentioned was schedule 4 on the 1-5 designation, with such drugs as morphine

Arthur Pepper, 69, discovers a charm bracelet belonging to his late wife in “The Curious Charms of Arthur Pepper” by Phaedra Patrick. Since Miriam’s death, Arthur has existed more than lived, but the eight charms on the bracelet mark a turning point. The elephant charm has a phone number inscribed on it, and when Arthur calls the number he is shocked to find that Miriam once lived in India. He sets out to find the significance of all the charms. This leads him to many moments, both heart-warming and funny, where he learns more about his wife and the choice she made when she married him. He also learns about his own positive impact on others. The charms may be the device on which the story is built, but this book has its own charm as well. “All Things Cease to Appear” by Elizabeth Brundage combines various elements: part murder mystery, part

psychological suspense, part haunted-house story, part family drama. It takes up in the late 1970s, after Catherine Clare is found murdered in her family’s house in rural New York. Her husband George, while never charged, is thought by locals to have committed the deed. He, after all, had abused her for years. Three orphaned teenage brothers also figure into the story; their parents had dealt with their failing farm by committing suicide in the same house where Catherine died. The house sits abandoned until 2004, when George and Catherine’s daughter, only three years old at the time of her mother’s murder, returns to
the house with one of the orphaned brothers to empty it. The author accomplishes the difficult task of making all the characters seem both sympathetic and suspicious. This is a good choice for a reader willing to put a little more work into a book in return for a satisfying payoff. We’ve all no doubt wondered what might have happened in our lives if one circumstance or decision had changed. In “The Versions of Us” author Laura Barnett explores how two people’s lives might unfold in different ways under different circumstances. Three intertwined versions of the lives of Jim and Eva over 50 years are offered. Both are students when, in “Version One,” aspiring writer Eva’s bicycle runs over a nail and law student/artist Jim fixes the flat tire, with the pair falling instantly in love and getting married. In “Version Two,” the bike misses the nail,
and the two do not meet until five years later. In “Version Three,” Jim fixes the flat tire and they fall in love, but when Eva finds out she is pregnant by her boyfriend David, she breaks it off with Jim. Parents age, children are born, spouses come and go, writing and artistic careers wax and wane in various ways, depending on the version. “The Boys in the Bunkhouse” by Dan Barry is a powerful true story of a group of intellectually disabled men. For decades they lived together in an old schoolhouse in a state of near-slavery, bussed to work each day in a processing plant in exchange for room, board and $65 per month. Year by year their living conditions deteriorated. The people in the small Iowa town where they lived were seemingly oblivious to their plight. This tale could come right out of Dickens, except that it really happened.

portation Secretary Anthony Foxx. As it considers opening routes to Havana, the department’s selection process has been complicated because airlines have requested far more routes than are available under the U.S. agreement with Cuba. A decision on Havana routes is expected later this summer. The routes approved Friday were not contested because there was less interest among U.S. airlines in flying to Cuban locations other than Havana. The routes include service from Miami, Chicago, Philadelphia, Minneapolis and Fort Lauderdale, Florida. The Cuban destinations are Camaguey, Cayo Coco, Cayo Largo, Cienfuegos, Holguin, Manzanillo, Matanzas, Santa Clara and Santiago de Cuba. All flights currently operating between the two countries are charters, but the agreement the administration signed with Cuba in February allows for up to 110 additional daily flights — more than five times the current charter operations. The Transportation Security Administra-
tion is in the process of completing a security review of Cuban airports expected to have direct flights to the United States, and it is working with the Cuban government to schedule and complete the security assessment of any additional airports that propose to begin service, the agency said. American Airlines has been the most aggressive in its approach, requesting more than half the possible slots to Havana plus service to five smaller Cuban cities. The airline has a large hub in Miami, home to the largest Cuban-American population. The Fort Worth, Texas-based airline has also been flying on behalf of charter companies for the longest time, since 1991. U.S. airlines have been feverishly working to establish relationships with Cuban authorities. For instance, American had a number of meetings this week in Havana with Cuban aviation and banking officials. “We have been working for months on this plan,” Galo Beltran, Cuba country manager for American Airlines,
told The Associated Press this week during the trip to Havana. “For us, it is going to be fairly easy because of the experience we have.” Cuba already has seen dramatic growth in flights. Last year, it saw 18 percent more passengers than in 2014, according to government aviation officials. Currently, 46 airlines fly to Cuba, including Air France, Aeromexico, KLM, Air Canada, Aeroflot and Iberia. Cuban aviation officials say they are ready for the extra flights but that questions remain, especially at Havana, about where the additional planes will park. There has been plenty of interest by Americans in visiting Cuba since relations between the two nations started to thaw in December 2014. Nearly 160,000 U.S. leisure travelers flew to Cuba last year, along with hundreds of thousands of Cuban-Americans visiting family. Prices for an hourlong charter flight now are about $500. Commercial airlines will probably offer flights for significantly less, although none has publicly discussed pricing.

GOP: At odds with high court Continued from A1
Jeff King said Thursday that he is drafting a constitutional amendment that would declare courts cannot close public schools in education funding lawsuits. Several GOP lawmakers endorsed the idea, and Republican Gov. Sam Brownback is sympathetic. Even if the amendment is swiftly approved by the required two-thirds majorities in both chambers of the Legislature, it would go to voters on the November ballot. That means the proposal will have no immediate impact on the Kansas Supreme Court’s threat that schools will not be able to reopen after June 30 unless legislators rewrite education funding laws. Brownback called the GOP-dominated Legislature into special session June 23 to respond to last month’s ruling, which found the state’s system for distributing more than $4 billion a year in aid to its 286 school districts is unfair to poorer schools. Schools are out for the summer, but many offer summer programs and meals for poor children. Also, some special education students receive services year-round.
“The people of Kansas want us to take off the table the option of ever closing schools,� said King, an Independence Republican who is chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee. His panel and its House counterpart are having a joint, two-day meeting next week, and King said they’ll discuss his proposed constitutional amendment. GOP conservatives also have in the past suggested revising language in the state constitution dealing with education funding or specifically prohibiting the courts from ordering additional spending. “There are going to be a number of proposals,� said Republican Rep. John Barker, of Abilene, the House committee’s chairman. Robb, the attorney for the four districts that filed the lawsuit, said King’s proposal would “emasculate� a constitutional provision requiring lawmakers to make “suitable provision� for financing schools. The Supreme Court has ruled repeatedly lawmakers to finance a suitable education for all children, whether they live in poor or wealthy areas. Kansas has been in and out of legal disputes over education
funding for nearly three decades. The latest round began with a lawsuit filed in 2010 by the Dodge City, Hutchinson, Wichita, and Kansas City, Kansas, districts after the Great Recession prompted lawmakers to back off funding promises. The Kansas Supreme Court ruled in February that poor districts weren’t getting their fair share in aid. Lawmakers — facing a budget crunch and pressure not to cut aid to wealthy districts — rewrote school finance laws but didn’t change most districts’ funding. The court rejected some of the changes in a May 27 decision; lawmakers adjourned their annual session June 1 without responding. Brownback on Wednesday embraced a proposal to increase funding for schools by $38 million to help poor districts but said Thursday there’s broad interest in amending the constitution. The governor acknowledged that the threat of schools not reopening grabbed his and lawmakers’ attention. But he told The Associated Press on Thursday: “There are other ways of doing that without holding the students in the middle of this constitutional challenge.�

him.”
papers right now.” In fact, there’s hardly a Tidd in this town that hasn’t toted the Register at one time or another. Josh, Joel, Jonathan, Jennifer, Jessica — Jason’s sibs — were all carriers. But the effects of the ink lingered longer in the third-eldest, who recalls, as a kid, reading the paper from front to back while waiting for a car ride home at the end of his route. “I even remember reading John Hanna then,” says Tidd, referring to the steadfast Associated Press correspondent who covers the Kansas Legislature. “I didn’t understand much of what he said, as a third-grader, but I do remember reading
STILL, it wasn’t until midway through his senior year at Iola High School that Tidd was awakened to the idea that he might write news for a living. An important tipping point was an English class he took with Betty Hawley. “Before high school, I really didn’t like English. I liked math, because it was always 2+2 = 4, while a phrase in English might mean something different than what you first thought it meant.” Eventually, though, Tidd’s preference for the hard certainties of math gave way to an appreciation for the shaded registers of language — but it took the Bard to get him there. “It was during the Shakespeare
unit, when we had to write our own sonnets. Before that section, I despised the class. After that, I loved it. I went home and, for two weeks straight, I wrote a sonnet every night. … At that point, I realized maybe writing is something I want to do.” But of course, today, as a burgeoning newshound, Tidd’s ambitions for language are not poetic, at least not primarily. “If I could choose between being an F. Scott Fitzgerald” — famous for his long, embroidered sentences — “or an Ernest Hemingway” — known for his short, dagger-sharp lines — “I would choose to be more like Hemingway. I like the clear prose. I like getting to the point. I appreciate language
that can set the scene, too — just as long as the point is not lost in the language. As long as you can convey what you want it to convey. I don’t want to turn off readers.” “TO ME, being a reporter is being both the ultimate student and the ultimate teacher,” says Tidd. “I feel like, as a reporter, if you aren’t learning something each day, you’re not doing it right. Just like a mother could ask a kindergarten student ‘What did you learn in school today?’, you should be able to ask a reporter ‘What did you learn today?’ ... If you didn’t learn something, you didn’t do it right. And if your reader didn’t learn something by reading your story, you didn’t
write it correctly.” WORKING AT “The Collegian” these last three years — where he cleared $75 every two weeks as an editor and often didn’t clock out until well after midnight — Tidd is inured to the low pay and ragged hours of newspaper life. But he’s no less dedicated to the profession because of those defects. A professor once advised Tidd to drop his print journalism focus and concentrate on digital. “But I don’t want to be on TV or on radio. I just don’t like their style of reporting as much as I like a newspaper’s style.” Incredibly — despite the refreshing tonic his youth has provided this paper in the few days he’s been here — work-
ing at the Iola Register isn’t Tidd’s highest professional ambition. “I’ve been told that, in January, there is an Associated Press job covering the Kansas Legislature during the session. So,” says Tidd, “I’d want to apply for that. I think it would be a great learning opportunity. ... The Kansas Legislature always has enough interesting things to write about.” Tidd’s wit and experience have equipped him with the necessary reportorial qualities — a questioning mind, an economy of phrase, an allergy to cliche, a social ease, a clarity of thought — to launch his application into the top tier. Plus, if he got the job, it would reunite him with an old friend in John Hanna.
History: Toland hopes Iolans preserve other aging houses Continued from A1
’70s, and after them Jay and Pam Evans. “When the kitchen cabinets arrived, Beth put them together and helped with day-to-day remodeling,” Toland recalled. “David and Beth have experience from when they lived in Washington, D.C.,” as well as with several downtown commercial buildings. “They are marketing the house and will the north one (corner of Madison and Colborn) when it’s ready to sell.” THE “NORTH house,” as Toland calls it, is another matter. His pragmatic motivation is the same, but it also has family ties. Toland traced history of the house from memory, as easily as if he were reading a historical account. The house was built in 1880 by Morg Hartman, whose place in Iola history probably has escaped most, but is integral. Hartman and George Bowlus were cofounders of the Allen County Bank — Bowlus’ son was Thomas H., whose benevolence led to construction of the Bowlus Fine Arts and Cultural Center. Hartman died relatively young, 53, in 1887. His wife, Lisse, 39 at his death, then assumed half ownership of the bank and took his place as vice president, an unusual occupation for a
faced house, with his parents, Stanley and June Toland. They moved there in 1949, when Clyde was 2. Stanley had carried on the family tradition of reading the law. Clyde and now-deceased brother John inherited their father’s love for the law. Clyde practices a couple of days a week in his father’s former office downtown.
Clyde Toland woman in the late 1800s. Lisse lived in the house until 1905, when she died at 57. John Henderson was the next owner, and he too is mentioned in exacting accounts of Iola history. His grandson is Dean Hargrove, who became a heralded television producer, writer and director. Among shows he created were “Matlock,” starring Andy Griffith. Next change of ownership came in 1960, when first cousins of Toland’s great-grandfather, Clyde Thompson, Edna Schmidt and Hilda McClain, took its reins after moving from Tulsa. Always one intrigued by family and history, Toland found himself dropping by to visit with the widows, one doting and the other a tad gruff, albeit, in not too bad of a way. At the time he lived a block to the south, in a well-appointed brick-
FRENCH is in the
midst of redoing the exterior of the north house, with an enchanting feature being a tower on its northeast corner. He built a new one on the ground, enlarging it to sit over support walls so that it is open, which will permit a person standing just inside the front door to see to its peak. A Boren Roofing crane was used Friday of last week to hoist the tower into place, accomplished quickly. “It took 40 minutes to set up the crane and five minutes to put up the tower,” French said. “It was like someone handing you an ice cream cone at Dairy Queen. Cory Boren (the crane’s operator) is really good.” A fire in the house a few years ago left some people thinking it was a total loss. Not so, said French. “Most of the fire was in three floor joists, which we’ve replaced. That was the
only structural damage, in the hallway. The house is stable, overall a good solid structure on solid footing,” he said. “You can thank good old Douglas fir for that.” The lion’s share of French work for the time being is to replace damaged 3-inch drop siding on exterior walls, as well as windows and doors. “We tore off old cedar shakes and most of the original siding was in good condition,” French said. “The house originally had a wraparound porch on the front. We’re doing the outside as it originally was, but not the porch.” Also, the house had two turrets at one time, but the second on the
southwest corner was “torn off a long time ago,” he mentioned. “It shows up in some old pictures.” A decision on what will be done with the interior hasn’t been made, French said. An appealing part that’s likely to stay are two fireplaces, one in the downstairs living room and the second in the second floor master bedroom. TOLAND’S

is at least a footnote in Iola’s history. It started life as a bungalow, built for Alice Hendricks who was born in the brick house facing Madison Avenue, occupied today by Mary Lou Chard and just a
stone’s throw away. Hendricks “taught millions of Iola kids,” Toland said, with concession to hyperbole. When he and wife Nancy moved in, they added rooms to accommodate family needs. “I grew up on the corner south and like to say, ‘I didn’t get too far in life.’” “I never would have tackled the projects without David and Beth’s help. They have all this wonderful experience. Beth knows tons of stuff about remodeling. “I hope others will do the same thing to help older homes remain a part of Iola’s housing stock,” Toland concluded.

~ Journalism that makes a difference
For us contemporaries, Hillary’s nomination will be truly historic It wasn’t until I was a senior at Iola High School that girls’ sports were introduced. That was in 1973-74. Up until then, girls played a supportive role for the boys’ teams as cheerleaders or members of the pep squad or band. While that culture didn’t necessarily hold us girls back, I sense that today’s young women have a greater sense of empowerment due, in part, to a climate that encourages them to test their limits no matter the venue — academics or sports. My role models as a youth were mostly women. With “Leave it to Beaver” still a popular TV sitcom, I was enthralled, but intimidated, with trailblazers Gloria Steinem, Bella Abzug, and Joan Baez who encouraged women to become more politically involved, protest the war and stand up to sexism. I also was in awe of my piano teacher Marlene Lenski, who was as passionate about social justice as she was music and continually challenged us girls to make something of ourselves. Even so, I also was made aware that the peacekeepers of the home and workplace fell to women, more than men, and it felt impossible to reconcile the two. For the past 30 years Hillary Clinton, 68, has battled similar struggles but on a much bigger scale and stage, in her roles as first lady of Arkansas, 1983-1992, first lady of the United States, 1993-2001, U.S. Senator from New York, 200109, U.S. Secretary of State, 2009-13, and for the last two years in her campaign for the Democratic nomination for president. We women, especially, of her generation, have watched in awe as she has broken through countless “glass ceilings.” And in the process she’s been cut by many of the falling shards. I remember all too well the televised hearings before Congress in 1993 when as first lady she defended her ideas to overhaul the health-care system. Pejoratively called “Hillarycare,” her ideas were never given serious consideration. The fact that she had studied the issue for years meant little to the male-dominated Congress and they made no bones that in their view her role as first lady was ceremonial, where, unfor-
Susan Lynn Register editor tunately, it remains largely today. One of Hillary’s strengths is that she is as strong in defeat as success. Instead of giving up, she worked behind the scenes with senators Orrin Hatch of Utah and Ted Kennedy of Massachusetts to get eventual passage of the State Children’s Health Insurance Program in 1997. Today, CHIP is still the No. 1 program for low-income families to secure food and health care for their children. Hillary also showed immense graciousness in her concession speech to Barack Obama when he secured the Democratic presidential nomination in 2008. Once the front-runner, Hillary was overshadowed by the rising star. “We all know this has been a tough fight,” she said. “But the Democratic Party is a family. And now, it’s time to restore the ties that bind us together.” There’s the balance: trailblazer and peacemaker. PERHAPS IT’S because Hillary has been in the public eye so long that her presumptive nomination as the Democratic candidate for president comes with so little fanfare. In an interview with the New York Times, 26-yearold Buck Johnson regarded her nomination as paling in comparison to that of Barack Obama as the first African American commander in chief. “I think that African Americans have been persecuted a lot more,” he said. “Whereas, I guess, a woman president, it just seems — I don’t know, women are 50 percent of the population.” The young man fails to see the irony of his words. Despite the fact women are half the population, it’s taken 240 years for one to be nominated to run for president. What will shatter this last, glass ceiling — not for just her, but for the country — is her election as president, come November. Our votes will be the hammer.

Pain isn’t something to ignore Dad died 20 years ago and for about that long previously he suffered from arthritic joints in both legs. He spent many days in a comfortable chair absorbing one adventure after another from National Geographic and several science-related magazines. His thirst for knowledge didn’t abate until near his death at 79. He was among those sometimes referred to as the Greatest Generation. He was born in 1918, less than two months before World War I ended, grew up in the ’20s, and matured in the 1930s before WWII came calling in 1942: “Your friends and neighbors request your presence ...” the draft notice said. He spent most of the war and a few months afterward in Europe, landing on Utah Beach during the Normandy Invasion. He trekked across France and arrived in Belgium for the Battle of the Bulge. His specialty was medicine, leading him to treat battlefield wounds. Back home he hooked on at Monarch in Humboldt, raised me and sister Jenelle, and

never admitted regret for not furthering his education with the GI Bill. His familial responsibilities came first. Education was important, though. He encouraged Jenelle and I to do well in school, without being pushy, and often took correspondence courses himself, which eventually led to a supervisory position at the cement plant. Doc Long — as everyone knew him — would stop by the house evenings to talk about patients, back when privacy issues weren’t an obstacle. Dad kept a copy of Grey’s Anatomy and a Physician’s Desk Reference handy. He may never have solved a case, but his discussions with Doc Long were a highlight. Which takes me to the last 20 years of his life. For whatever reason he would
not agree to have his joints examined, with replacement a possibility. “I know a guy who got a knee replaced and is much worse off,” he used as stock excuse. I don’t know if such procedures would have worked or not, but I do know he suffered for many years. I now have encountered the same maladies. But, with technology advances such as they have been, I’m not a bit reluctant to take advantage. I had my right hip replaced, and went from constant pain to none at all. This coming week I will visit with an orthopedic surgeon about the other leg. I think it is the knee this time, but the hip also pains me at times. I know in the 1990s Dad’s decision was common, but nowadays it is foolhardy not to take advantage of what medicine offers to curb pain and often remove it altogether. Being able to walk without a pronounced limp is a dividend of huge proportions. Don’t ignore pain, it is the body’s way of saying something is amiss.
States’ rights can be overbearing Once upon a time, conservatives were quick to denounce federal power grabs at the expense of the states. Bob Dole even said that he carried a copy of the Constitution’s 10th Amendment in his pocket — that amendment being the one protecting the states’ reserve powers. Sometimes, states’ rights took on ugly racial overtones. Nineteen sixties era rallies against federal overreach were really directed at blocking federal efforts to end segregation in the South, and later at racially-charged controversies, like court-ordered school desegregation. Yet the issue is not just about race. For example, conservatives today still denounce certain federal agencies, none more so than the Environmental Protection Agency, as treading on territory that rightly belongs to state governments. Then again, times change. The conservative case for less federal power over states rests on the assumption that the states will have lower taxes, fewer regulations, and a more pro-industry climate. Today states with liberal policymaking majorities often pass laws going well beyond federal regulations. California has done this for years with auto emissions. Oregon recently banned hydrologic fracturing, or “fracking,” for oil and gas, and also pledged to phase out the use of coal for electricity by 2030. Now comes Vermont’s new food labeling law, and Kansas Congressman Mike Pompeo and Senator Pat Roberts are none too happy about it.
Michael Smith Insight Kansas Set to take effect July 1, Vermont’s law would be the first in the nation requiring the labeling of food containing genetically modified organisms (GMOs, or bioengineered foods). Larger states like California may follow suit. Pompeo and Roberts have led the efforts in the House and Senate, respectively, to preempt the Vermont law. Pompeo got the “Safe and Accurate Food Labeling Act” passed in the House, but it failed in the Senate. Nicknamed the “Deny Americans the Right to Know” (DARK) act by opponents, the federal legislation relies on the Constitution’s Interstate Commerce Clause, the basis of federal regulatory power since the 1930s. Most GMO ingredients are either modified to produce their own insecticide, as with cotton and corn, or to resist herbicides and insecticides sprayed on them, as with soybeans and again with corn. A new report on the topic by the National Academies of Science, Engineering, and Medicine found exaggerated claims on both sides of the controversy. GMOs are not miracle crops, having had little impact on the annual increases in crop yields. But the researchers also found no
evidence of increases in cancer and other illnesses among the general public due to the consumption of GMO foods. Activists continue to object. For example, one study found that genetically engineered soybeans had lower nutritional content and more herbicide glyphosate — aka Monsanto’s Roundup — in the food after processing. The study compared GMO soybeans to those raised conventionally and also to organic soybeans. The proposed legislation would still allow voluntary or state-regulated labeling of foods that do not contain GMO/bioengineered ingredients. Instead, the issue is whether food that does contain GMOs should be labeled. Pompeo, Roberts, Monsanto, and their allies fear that these labels will needlessly scare consumers. Critics counter that they have a right to know what is in their food. The legislation passed the House and died in the Senate but Roberts, chair of the Senate Agriculture Committee, is said to be in informal talks to revive the bill before July 1. Critics charge Roberts and Pompeo with selling out to Monsanto, but that may not be fair. Conservatives have long advocated limiting government regulation over the private sector. The question is, what happened to another goal-limiting federal interference with the state governments? To respond effectively to critics, these two Kansas legislators need to better-define their conservatism.

College Volleyball:
Moore jumps to Baker
American Legion Baseball: Chanute 14, Iola A 5; Iola A 3, Chanute 2.
By JON DYKSTRA The Iola Register
Kyra Moore is in for a big transition as she takes her volleyball talents outside of the city limits for the first time in her playing career. Moore — who played for Iola High before spending a year in Whitney Shaw’s Allen Community College program — will attend Baker University this fall. “I wanted to go to Baker before (I went) to AlKyra Moore len as well, but I didn’t do it because it is my hometown and I love Coach (Shaw) and everything,” Moore said. “(Allen) was just very comforting.” The decision to switch schools developed quickly for Moore when Baker hired Matt Windle to be its head coach. The new coach immediately targeted Moore to fill a need for his program. “It is a great school,” Moore said. “I like the campus and the coach at Baker and since it is a four-year school, it was a great opportunity for me to move on.” Although Shaw will miss not having Moore back for her sophomore season, she understands why she decided to make the leap to a four-year school now. “She was only here for a year, but she came in with quite a few credits because she is a local kid and she was

RUNNING IT OFF Seufert scores on Preston’s infield hit to beat Chanute
By JON DYKSTRA The Iola Register
Hunter Preston knew if he could just get the ball in play, that Wyatt Seufert could do the rest. Seufert was on third base in the 2-2 game in the fifth and final inning of game two Thursday of Iola American Legion’s A team doubleheader against Chanute. Preston accomplished what he set out to do and lined a 1-1 pitch back up
the middle. Seufert paused for a moment to see if the Chanute shortstop would be able to field the ball cleanly. The ball bounced once before going into his glove and Seufert broke for the plate. “I was stopping to make sure if their shortstop caught the ball or not,” Seufert said. “If he didn’t, then it was a do-or-die situation for me, so See INDIANS | Page B8

NEW YORK (AP) — Kansas City pitcher Yordano Ventura was suspended nine games and Baltimore third baseman Manny Machado was penalized four games Thursday after their brawl earlier this week. Major League Baseball also fined each player an undisclosed amount. This is the second straight season Ventura has been suspended — he drew a seven-game ban last year after an altercation with the White Sox. “It’s just kind of tough when you have to play short because of something that someone else kind of got going,” Orioles manager Buck Showalter said before Thursday night’s game at Toronto. On Tuesday night in Baltimore, Ventura hit Machado in the back with a 99 mph fastball in the fifth inning. Machado charged the mound and punched Ventura in the head as the benches emptied. Ventura and Machado both have appealed their suspensions. They can continue to play until the process is complete. “They came up with a decision and obviously I’m
Kansas City Royals starting pitcher Yordano Ventura is escorted off the field after hitting the Baltimore Orioles’ Manny Machado with a pitch, sparking a brawl during the fifth inning at Oriole Park at Camden Yards in Baltimore on Tuesday. Both players were ejected. Karl Merton Ferron/Baltimore Sun/TNS going to appeal it,” Machado said. “We’ll see what happens.” Machado was in the starting lineup Thursday night against the Blue Jays. Showalter said he doesn’t expect Machado’s appeal to
be heard while Baltimore is in Toronto for a four-game series. No matter what happens, Showalter said it will be difficult to cope without Machado, See VENTURA | Page B5

DETROIT (AP) — Gordie Howe worked all his remarkable life to earn the respect and awe that came with being “Mr. Hockey.” The Canadian farm boy who developed his brute strength and incredible stamina on the Saskatchewan prairie could put his team ahead with a timely goal or even the score with opponents by throwing his elbows and fists. Away from the rink, Howe worked just as hard to become one of the most likable superstars in any sport. If there is anything hockey reveres, it’s hard work. Few brought more of that to the game than Howe, whose boundless blend of talent and toughness made him the NHL’s quintessential star during a career that lasted into his 50s. He died Friday at the age of 88 surrounded by family members after a storied career that included four Stanley Cup championships and respect across the league. “Mr. Hockey left peacefully, beautifully, and w no regrets,” Murray Howe said in a text to The Associated Press, adding that his father died simply of “old age.” The Detroit Red Wings, Howe’s longtime team, said Howe died in Sylvania, Ohio, at the home of Murray Howe. Funeral arrangements were pending. Howe shattered records, dropped gloves and threw elbows while helping the Red Wings win those four championships. He became an idol for many and is
credited with helping the sport attract American fans in a development key the league’s growth. “When Gordie came into the NHL, hockey was a Canadian game. He converted it into a North American game,” former NHL President Clarence Campbell said when Howe retired the first time in 1971 because he was playing with arthritis in his left wrist and for a last-place team. With finesse and a heavy dose of grit, the Hockey Hall of Famer set NHL records with 801 goals and 1,850 points — mostly with the Red Wings — that held up until Gretzky came along. The Great One himself left no doubt about what he thought of Howe. “Unfortunately we lost the greatest hockey player ever today, but more importantly the nicest man I have ever met,” Gretzky tweeted. NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman lauded “the incomparable” Howe as a remarkable athlete with incredible longevity. “Gordie’s commitment to winning was matched only by his commitment to his teammates, to his friends, to the Red Wings, to the city of Detroit and — above all — to his family,” Bettman said. Mr. Hockey was a giant of the game and no list of the NHL’s greatest players has him anywhere but near the top alongside players like Bobby Orr, Maurice Richard, Mario Lemieux, Guy Lafleur, Bobby Hull and Gretzky.

Womens College Basketball: 2016 Red Devil Recruiting Class
New Red Devils offer influx of athleticism
By JON DYKSTRA The Iola Register
Last season, Allen Community College women’s basketball coach Todd Buchanan had little time to shape his roster with the athletes he wanted after taking the head coaching job at Allen late in the process. This season Buchanan and assistant coach Rachel Janzen were set on getting the type of players to fit the way they want to play and that can help propel the team into the next era of Red Devil hoops. “First and foremost, it is a roster that Coach Janzen and I put together that serves us in two ways,” Buchanan said. “First of all, it fits the style we want to play, which is up-tempo and dribble drive and kick. It has always been my preference to play a transition game. The other part of it is to recruit kids that can play multiple positions. “I think we will be much more versatile, much more athletic, be able to play faster and be able to press. I think that covers all the aspects of building a foundation as to how we want to play.”
Kamri Summons Guard Maumelle H.S. (Okla.) High School Averages: 15 ppg, 5 rpg, 2 spg
With that new emphasis on speed and transition, Buchanan put a priority on being finding his point guard early in the process and with the signing of Kamri Summons, he thinks he has found that player. “The first kid we signed was Kam,” Buchanan said. “She is everything we need that we didn’t have a year ago. She will be a great leader for us. I’ve always said throughout my years of coaching that I don’t care if you are a freshman or a senior, if you have that leadership and skill set in your suitcase when you get to campus then you will play and you will start and we will possibly put that big ‘C’ on your crest for captain.” That leadership from the point guard position is an element that Buchanan is eagerly anticipating. “She will be a great extension of myself from the bench to the floor to the locker room,” he said. “We are very excited about her, she has a lot of the athleticism and intangibles that we had lacked.” Summons also is a capable scorer, which Buchanan believes is a key component to playing that position at the college level. “I always want to play with a scoring point guard,” Buchanan said. “I don’t want to play four-on-five. I think when you have a point guard that lacks in the scoring category, you end up playing four-on-five, but she can definitely shoot it.” Versatility is definitely a strength of Summons. “She gives you a little bit of everything,” Buchanan said. “She is the buffet of point guards. You get a little bit of everything from her. She is going to make everyone better.”
Katelyn Swanson Guard Phillipsburg H.S. (Kan.) High School Averages: 14 ppg, 6 rpg, 4 spg With the point guard position settled, Buchanan and Janzen turned their attention to finding weapons to put around her and they think they found one in combo-guard Katelyn Swanson. “The accolades are just endless with this kid,” Buchanan said. “She is more of a two-guard. She can really, really shoot it.” Swanson presence as a shooter allows the coaching staff the freedom to run several types of plays to get her freed up for jump shots. “When we really implement what we want to do and how we want to play, we can really isolate her and use her off of screens,” Buchanan said. “She is going to be instrumental in the way we play.”
Chelsey Trautloff Guard Horton H.S. (Kan.) High School Averages: 12 ppg, 4 rpg, 3 spg The Red Devils weren’t satisfied with just one shooter and they went
Red Devil forward DaMonica Franklin drives to the basket during a game last season at Allen Community College. Franklin is the only returning player that coaches Todd Buchanan and Rachel Janzen will have next season. The Red Devils have already signed nine players as the rebuild their roster around young athleticism. REGISTER/JON DYKSTRA back in-state to grab Chelsey Trautoff from Horton. “Chelsey is a really gutty kid and can really shoot it,” Buchanan said. “She is longer than I thought. When she came to campus, I was really happy with her length and I think she can play (point guard, shooting guard and small forward.) I think the wing is where she will probably play.” The ability to put the ball in the basket is the main quality that attracted Buchanan and Janzen to Trautoff. “We add another scorer and she is accustomed to winning,” Buchanan said. “Once you are accustomed to winning, it becomes much easier to have success on the next level.” As with everyone Allen recruited he athleticism is a key to her game. “She is going to be a great piece of the puzzle when we get out and play our game in transition.”
Kendra Houston Guard Cy-Lakes H.S. (Texas) High School Averages: 12 ppg, 3 rpg, 3 apg Buchanan went to his home-state of Texas to add another long-range specialist with Texas-native Kendra Houston. “She may be the best shooter out of all of them, only time will tell.” Buchanan said. “She has a high-basketball IQ and really knows how to play. She is very smart and coachable.” Houston’s intelligence on the court give Buchanan the faith that she will only continue to improve her game. “You win with those types of kids,” Buchanan said. “She is definitely a really nice shooter.”
Tamera Shaver Guard Moore H.S. (Kan.) High School Averages: 10 ppg, 4 rpg, 6 apg The coaching staff went down to Oklahoma to land the prospect with what could be the highest ceiling in the entire class with Tamera Shaver. “Coach (Janzen) did a great job utilizing her contacts in Oklahoma to get Tamera,” Buchanan said. “If I do my job as a coach, she can be as good of a player that has ever played here.” Shaver’s skill-set sets her apart from many player’s she will face next season. “From an athletic standpoint, from
a play-maker standpoint, I don’t see anything that this kid can’t do,” Buchanan said. “She will step out and shoot the three. Defensively, she is long and athletic.” That athleticism will be a key the Allen improving as a defensive team in the new season. “She be on the ball, she can be off the ball,” he said. “She is just going to create havoc.” With Shaver, Buchanan feels like the Red Devils have their late-game closer. “When the ballgame is on the line, she is not going to run from the ball,” Buchanan said. “She wants the ball in her hands and she will get it here, I can promise you that. “She will be a nightmare for people to guard.”
Kia Andrews Forward Kemper H.S. (Texas) High School Averages: 12 ppg, 5 rpg, 4 apg With all the guards the Red Devils will have pushing the ball, getting posts that can run the floor with them was a key for Buchanan and Janzen and Kia Andrews fits that mold. “Kia has as much ability as anyone,” Buchanan said. “She is long, athletic, about 6’1” and will be more of a post,” Buchanan said. “She can score the basketball.” Despite an ability to put up points, Buchanan is most excited about her ability to do the little things for his team. “She can defend and certainly can rebound the basketball,” Buchanan said. “Defensively and rebounding should be her strong suit right now. She is a powerful rebounded.” Despite being so long, Buchanan is confident she has the strength to play college basketball. “She is stronger than she looks,” he said. “She is very thin, but strong and athletic.”
Jhailyn Johnson Forward Topeka H.S. (Kan.) High School Averages: 8 ppg, 4 rpg, 1 bpg To fit with the athleticism of the roster, the Red Devils wanted to make sure they added an element of toughness to the front court. In steps Jhailyn Johnson. “I love Jhailyn,” Buchanan said.
“Jhailyn is the opposite of Kia. She is thicker and stronger.” On the defensive end of the court Johnson should make a big impact. “Defensively, she is strong enough to guard anyone in the post.” Like many of players he has brought in this season, Buchanan is very pleased with her knowledge of the game. “Her basketball IQ is very high for her and she is very versatile,” Buchanan said. Johnson isn’t just a bruising presence, she also can add to the Allen offense with her outside game. “She can step out and shoot the three,” Buchanan said. She will shoot the three in transition and will help us fit my philosophy in how to play.”
Presley Stephens Forward SW Christian U. (Okla.) College Averages: 15 ppg, 8 rpg, 3 bpg With all the freshman the coaching staff brought in, they also wanted to add a transfer that has played on the college level. They were able to net Presley Stephens. “Presley is thin, athletic, high-octane kid that can step out and shoot the three,” Buchanan said. Again, Buchanan went back to well of finding shooters and making that a priority. “She gives the option to shoot the three at any time in our offense,” Buchanan said.
Kori Seals Forward West Side H.S. (Texas) High School Averages: 11 ppg, 13 rpg, 10 apg The Red Devils rounded out their class with another talented post player with Kori Seals. “Last, but certainly not least is Kori,” Seals bloodlines are rich with athletic talent and knowing that excites Buchanan about what Seals can become. “Her grandfather played football for the Houston Oilers and she comes from that type of family,” Buchanan said. “They are athletic generationafter-generation-after-generation.” Her potential is outstanding according to Buchanan. “Her best basketball is ahead of her,” he said.

Ventura: suspended nine games Continued from B1
who is batting .303 with 15 homers and 37 RBIs. Baltimore is already minus shortstop J.J. Hardy, who has been sidelined since May 1 with a broken left foot. This is the second career suspension for Machado, who sat out five games in 2014 after throwing his bat toward third base following an inside pitch from Oaklandâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Fernando Abad. Machado appealed that suspension but it was upheld. The Royals next play Friday night in Chicago against the White Sox. The trouble between
Manny Machado (13) Ventura and Machado started earlier in the game. Machado got brushed back by two fastballs, then flied out and had words with Ventura. The next time up, Machado was hit. After the game, Orioles star Adam Jones said he was glad Machado defend-
ed himself and said he would pay any fine. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Tonight, Manny handled it himself and I couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be happier for him,â&#x20AC;? Jones said then. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I knew it was going to happen. (Ventura) has electric stuff and the talent is all there, but between the ears, there is a circuit board off balance. I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get it. I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get it.â&#x20AC;? A talented hard thrower who can be temperamental, Ventura got into skirmishes with the Angels and the Athletics early last season before his dustup with the White Sox led to a suspension.

Don’t drive like a knucklehead Dear Car Talk: Is it worth cutting into the curves when driving on multi-lane highways? For example, when on the interstate system, can I save fuel by switching lanes to reduce the distance traveled? — Marcel Answer: Sure. We all know that the fastest route from point A to point B is a straight line. And that’s what race car drivers do: If there’s a right-hand curve on the racetrack, they’ll go
Car Talk
Ray Magliozzi from the far left side of the track, cut the righthand corner at the apex of the curve, and then drift back out to the far left. That’s the straightest possible line through the curve. You can do that on the highway, too, Marcel. But why stop there? You can make your line
even straighter by cutting through nearby neighborhoods. You can go right across the lawns and through the back yards. Just watch out for those in-ground pools. Theoretically, you certainly can reduce your distance by a small amount and save a small amount of fuel. But the risk is that you’ll cause an accident. Since each lane contains vehicles, changing lanes inherently increases the risk of hitting one of those other vehicles
Saturday, June 11, 2016

— or having it hit you. And if you change lanes frequently and unpredictably (or if it appears to be unpredictable to other drivers), you make the risk much higher. So you might save 17 cents’ worth of fuel but pay a $1,000 deductible to your insurance company and miss six months of work recovering from a broken butt bone. So, theoretically, is this a good idea? Yes. Practically? No. Not at all.
I want to take a bath in stress: It soothes me Dear Dr. Roach: When a person spends an inordinate amount of time (read: months to years) in constant high-stress, fight-or-flight mode, can the person’s system become so accustomed to it that he or she comes to almost “need” to be in that mode in order to function “properly”? Or is that just a crazy concept? I can no longer mentally function when things are calm. — A.F. Answer: It’s not a crazy concept. Chronic stress affects us both mentally and physically. When the stress is finally reduced, the effects on body and mind vary from person to person. I often see physical illness acutely, such as respiratory infections, reflecting the damage to the immune system. Other physical systems, especially the gastrointestinal, can show abnormali-
Dr. Keith Roach To Your Good Health ties, with symptoms like diarrhea, constipation and abdominal discomfort. Anxiety, depression and even post-traumatic stress disorder happen to people with long-term stress. I have learned not to underestimate the stress on caregivers of the chronically ill. The demands on time, empathy, energy and sleep take an immense toll. I don’t have the answers, but the best advice I can give you is this: Take care of yourself; you can’t be an effective caregiver if you don’t. Get help from whomever you can, and don’t feel guilty for taking some time away.
Dear Dr. Roach: My husband once suffered from frequent bouts of severe gout. One day he read that beer could cause gout. Since he drank one bottle of beer daily he wondered if that was his problem. We had a hops plant in the backyard (he was planning to make his own beer) that was in flower, so he ate a few flowers, and had an attack the next day. He replaced his daily beer with wine and went over 10 years without an attack. Gout sufferers should know that avoiding beer might help. — N.M. Answer: Gout, a disease known to the ancients, is caused by deposition of uric acid stones into soft tissues, especially joints. Humans cannot metabolize uric acid, and gout happens in people who either make too much uric
acid or cannot excrete it (through the kidneys) adequately. Although some people do need medication despite doing all they can to reduce risk, this letter shows how important diet changes and avoiding alcohol can be. More-complete lists of high-purine foods can be found many places; my favorite place to start is the National Institutes of Health site (type “medline plus” into your browser, then search the site for “gout”). Many authorities recommend avoiding alcohol entirely, but I agree with N.M. that wine tends to cause gout less often than beer does. Coffee and vitamin C (500 mg daily) reduce gout attacks in many people. I would note that even poultry can raise uric acid levels and should be kept to reasonable serving sizes, such as 6 ounces daily.

Indians: Iola walks off in the fifth with a win over Chanute Continued from B1
I just went for it.” One of the fastest runners on the Indians, Seufert may have scored even with a perfect throw, but when the throw was a little offline, it left little doubt as Seufert slid across the plate and gave Iola the 3-2 win. “It felt really good to score it,” Seufert said. Beating Chanute will serve as a confidence boast for the single-A Indians. The team of mostly freshmen and sophomores in high school had a tough time in a tournament last weekend in Ottawa, but Collins thinks
winning the second game Thursday gives the confidence they need early in the year. “Winning one out of five in the tournament last weekend was tough, but coming here and getting a split against the team that won the tournament in Ottawa was big for us,” Collins said. “That was a big bounceback win.” Iola lost the first game to Chanute, 14-5, but was able to score three runs in the final inning of the loss. “I think those runs gave us a little more confidence going into the second game,” Seufert
Iola’s Wyatt Seufert slides into second base as the throw comes in toward the base on Thursday at Riverside Park against Chanute. REGISTER/JON DYKSTRA said. That momentum helped the bats get going quicker in game two. The Indians posted a pair of runs in the sec-
ond inning when Justice Pugh and Casen Barker were able to score. “Anytime you get a hit for any kid, it is going to help his confidence,”
Collins said. “Carrying that momentum into the second game definitely helped.” Chanute was able to tie the game in the third
with a pair of runs, but that was it offensively, setting the table for Seufert’s slide to win it in fifth. Pugh and Nate Berry pitched game two for Iola and combined to hold Chanute to just the two runs. “Nate is a really good four-inning guy,” Collins said. “He throws a lot of strikes, and since he is a soft-throwing lefty, he gives a lot of hitters troubles.” UP NEXT
Iola’s A-team will be back in action today at 6 p.m. when it travels to play in Garnett.

3 THINGS WE LEARNED FROM AXALTA 400 AT POCONO 1. Chase closing
Chase Elliott was standing tall at Pocono, where he led the most laps and finished fourth. ASSOCIATED
Chase Elliott keeps edging closer to a NASCAR Sprint Cup Series Chase berth. The 20-year-old rookie finished fourth at Pocono after leading a race-high 51 laps around the 2.5-mile triangle. “We have a group of guys willing to fight and stand together,” Elliott said.

2. Mileage king Kurt Busch established himself as the 2016 Sprint Cup Series mileage king when he eased to victory at Pocono Raceway. He not only had fuel to finish the race, but did a cooldown lap and a long burnout in front of the main grandstand. “We put it all together,” Busch said of the win.
3. Toyota snapped Team Toyota has dominated the
Cup Series season to date, but got a smack-down by Chevrolet and Ford at Pocono. The top six drivers from Monday’s race were from the “old-school” NASCAR brands. The top Toyota was

RAINIER EHRHARDT/GETTY IMAGES
NASCAR competition continues to play with the aerodynamic package of the Cup Series cars. The series will use a new set of rules at Michigan this weekend. It was the same aero package used in the All-Star Race at Charlotte. The goal: less downforce. “I thought it was certainly a key to making the cars have more falloff and open up more passing opportunities,” driver Brad Keselowski said. “Big positive."

Junior, Fox? What? Most likely, it’s just a matter of Junior trying something different that might be fun. Whatever the reasoning behind it, there will likely be more viewers than usual Saturday when Junior joins the Fox guys in the broadcast booth for the Xfinity race at Michigan. It’ll be interesting to see how Junior likes the booth and how the booth likes him. He’s an underrated thinker and talker, but that doesn’t always translate to the fast-moving world of live broadcasting. He'll be best during cautions.
Isn’t Junior’s contract done after 2017?
3 THINGS TO WATCH Jeff Gordon walked away from his NASCAR ride at the age of 44. Dale Earnhardt Jr. will be 42 by the end of the season, and that dreaded “R” word has started to creep into the conversation. “I would hate to walk away from such a good opportunity prematurely, but when it comes down to it, Rick (Hendrick) is the boss, and his future and direction of the team is important to me,” Junior told fronstretch.com.
There were a few at Pocono. Most of the focus is on Kurt Busch breaking into the 2016 win column, but Joey Logano, Kasey Kahne and Carl Edwards also got welcomed quality finishes Monday. As did future Fox broadcaster Dale Earnhardt Jr., of course. His runner-up was his first top-10 since mid-April.
