City of Ames settles with estate of man shot by police after car chase By Danielle.Ferguson @iowastatedaily.com The city of Ames has agreed to a settlement with the estate of Tyler Comstock, who was killed by an Ames police officer after a car chase that ended on Central

Campus in November 2013. The $225,000 settlement resolves Comstock’s parents wrongful death claim against the city, the police department and Officer Adam McPherson, who shot Tyler Comstock, on behalf of their son’s estate, according to the Ames Tribune.

During an Iowa Division of Criminal Investigation review of the shooting in 2013, Officer Adam McPherson went on administrative leave. Story County Attorney Stephen Holmes declared McPherson acted “reasonably under very difficult circumstances” a few

days after the incident. Susan Gwiasda, city spokeswoman, told the Ames Tribune Friday that a claim had been filed with the Iowa Communities Assurance Pool, the city’s liability insurance company. The city is responsible for $25,000, with the insurance com-

pany responsible for the remainder, Gwiasda told the Ames Tribune. “It is ICAP’s determination that the settlement is preferable to the potential emotional toll and litigation costs if this dis-

Lauren Pearson’s line, Oksana, is awarded ”Best in Show” at the ISU Fashion Show on Saturday. More than 250 garments were submitted for the event.

FASHION STATEMENT More than 250 garments entered into competition, senior wins ‘Best in Show’ By Emma.Kuntz @iowastatedaily.com

rom a heaven-like first half to a tossed around second, the ISU Fashion Show truly represented its theme, “The Calm Before the Storm.” Exhibited through both the atmosphere and garments as they strutted down the runway, this year’s show took the audience for a ride. The 33rd annual fashion show took place at 7 p.m. Saturday at Stephens Auditorium. Committee members, students, faculty, friends and family were in attendance for the event. The auditorium was almost filled to capacity as the student designers showcased garments, accessories and illustrations. Students from all majors could submit garments to be judged and included in this year’s fashion show. Garments were judged by four prominent members of the fashion industry during the weekend of March 27. More than 250 garments were submitted for judgment and about 200 garments were selected to walk down the runway. Graduating seniors submitted senior lines of more than three garments as one of their final projects before graduation. At the end of the show,

designers received awards in categories such as accessories, illustrations and wearable art. This year, a new scholarship was awarded to a merchandising student in addition to the Ruth Glock Internship Scholarship with Todd Snyder New York, which is given to a design student each year. Travis Cannon, senior in industrial design, was the recipient of the Ruth Glock Internship Scholarship and will have the opportunity to work directly with Todd Snyder this summer. The new scholarship, specifically tailored to merchandising students, was sponsored by Laura and Russ Talbot, who are supporters of the ISU Fashion Show. Rebecca Storm, junior in apparel, merchandising and design, was the winner of the inaugural scholarship. “I am honored to be the recipient of the first annual Lora and Russ Talbot merchandising scholarship,” Storm said. “This year, Lora and Russ Talbot Merchandising Scholarship was created for merchandisers to construct a case study for The West Cyde Boutique. The award received from winning is $400, as well as having the opportunity to work directly with West Cyde Boutique to develop and implement ideas created from the case study

Cyclone Market provides fundraising opportunities By Michaela.Ramm @iowastatedaily.com Dancers, popcorn and henna tattoos. It was all there as Central Campus became a hub of activity as students and clubs participated in Cyclone Market on Saturday. More than 35 ISU student organizations attended the event, which took place Saturday from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. Students and members of

the Ames community had the opportunity to attend the event and see what clubs had to offer, which ranged from carnival games to food to handmade products. Attendees could “pie a politician in the face” by tossing a pie tin full of whip cream in the face of a member of the ISU Model United Nations as a donation to the club. Other organizations, such as the Gaffers’ Guild, sold hand-

The ISU Model United Nations set up a booth at Cyclone Market on Saturday. Attendees of the booth had the opportunity to “pie a politician.”

Hillary Clinton officially announced Sunday she will seek the Democratic nomination for president of the United States in 2016, ending years of speculation on if she would seek the White House for a second time. The announcement came Sunday CLINTON afternoon with the launch of a new HillaryClinton.com campaign site, which featured a video titled “Getting Started.” The video opens with stories of Americans planning for the future and features Clinton’s announcement. “I’m getting ready to do something, too. I’m running for president,” Clinton says in the video. “Americans have fought their way back from tough economic times, but the deck is still stacked in favor of those at the top.” An email was sent to her 2008 campaign alumni and past donors shortly before the website launch saying she will travel to Iowa and hold a formal campaign kick-off next month. “Everyday Americans need a champion, and I want to be that champion,” Clinton says in the video. “So you can do more than just get by. You can get ahead, and stay ahead, because when families are strong, America is strong. So I’m hitting the road to earn your vote because it’s your time. I hope you’ll join me on this journey.” Clinton, 67, has served in several political capacities during the past 30-plus years. She was First Lady of Arkansas from 1983-1992, First Lady of the United States from 1993-2001, New York’s junior senator from 2001-2009 and most recently, secretary of state under President Obama from 2009-2013. In 2008, Clinton was seen as the frontrunner for the Democratic nomination for president, but wound up coming in third place in the Iowa caucuses. She would go on to win only 21 states and later suspended her campaign in June to endorse then-Sen. Barack Obama. “I think candidates always learn from their previous campaigns,” said Dianne Bystrom, director of the Carrie Chapman Catt Center for Women and Politics at Iowa State. “I think she’ll learn a lot from that campaign. I think the political landscape is a lot different [now in 2015] than it was in 2007. In that campaign, she came out big and strong, had a huge organization and hit pretty heavy, but I think she learned from the fact that she cannot take anyone for granted.” Clinton is set to travel to Iowa in the coming days and will opt for smaller meetings instead of large rallies, according to several news organizations including the Associated Press, New York Times and Washington Post, which have learned information about her plans from sources close to the campaign. “I actually met her and all the

Fashion Show Pop-Up Shop offers aesthetic experience to students By Mackenzi.Tjarks @iowastatedaily.com

Friday. Directors chose to set up underneath the overhang in front of Parks Library. The directors said this location gave great exposure to the shop due to the high foot traffic between The Hub and Parks Library. The structure covered in laundry baskets was an idea inspired by the design of a thimble and the concept of fashion. The directors had decided to build the structure from scratch, rather than creating the experience inside of a tent. “To see something completely different that isn’t a tent draws people’s attention in,” said Courtney Brockman, senior in apparel, merchandising and design, and one of the three shop directors.

A wooden structure completely covered in laundry baskets and filled to the brim with fashion, beauty and food sat in front of the library Friday. The first annual ISU Fashion Show Pop-Up Shop was created in collaboration with Ames’ businesses to create an aesthetic experience like none other. “Part of the idea of a pop-up shop is that it literally pops up overnight,” said Ashley Peters, senior in apparel, merchandising and design, and one of the three directors of the shop. The location and appearance of the pop-up shop had been kept a secret until the reveal on

er architecture students spent a month brainstorming ideas before starting the building process. It took about four months total to brainstorm and construct the shop from the ground up. Inside the pop-up shop, coffee from Burgie’s Coffee shop and cupcakes from The Cupcake Emporium were offered. Finesse Salon stylists were set up to braid hair, provide makeovers and give manicures. The suspense and excitement of the shop even sparked the interest of the ISU Fashion Show’s guest designer, Ali Rahimi. “I think it’s fantastic. “I’ve been hearing about it for several days now,” Rahimi said. “I think it’s a great event and I’m honored and excited to be invited.”

Farm animals were available to pet during Animal Learning Day at the Jeff and Deb Hansen Agricultural Student Learning Center on Saturday.

Animal Learning Day a success Event focuses on sparking interest in animal science among children By Mariah.Griffith @iowastatedaily.com With free food, baby animals and a host of ISU student volunteers, event co-chair Morgan Pittz of the Block and Bridle Club said the first annual Animal Learning Day went “even better than expected.” From 9 a.m, to 1 p.m. Saturday, the Jeff and Deb Hansen Agriculture Student Learning Center continued to bustle with Ames community children and families, as ISU students and local industry professionals sponsored a host of hands-on educational activities.

Attendees made butter by hand, trail mix to simulate mixing feed rations and watched an educational documentary called “Farmland.” The event featured photo-ops, playing in a sandbox filled with corn kernels, sampling a variety of food from pork chops to ribeye sandwiches, and of course, petting baby animals. Ames resident Jiwoong Kim brought his children, ages 1 and 3, to the event, and said that it was the kids’ first time being around farm animals. His daughter Emma reached out to pet a calf from her stroller while munching on a cookie from one of the

I think that the initial turnout we had really surpassed any expectations we could have had. … It’s been really busy from the get-go,” said Matthew Romoser, event co-chair. Romoser explained that although the event was largely sponsored by the university, the goal of those hosting was more far-reaching, and that’s why they decided to cater to kids and families. “What we’ve been doing is a lot of promoting animal science in general, trying to spark [kids’] interest in animal science and the animal industries, and hopefully later on we can recruit some animal science students, and maybe

Kim said the kids were a little scared but had fun touching the various animals like calves, piglets and chicks. “We’ve been [in Ames] a few years and never seen an event like this,” Kim said. “We’re really glad to be here.” Minnesotan Donna Konz said she drove down to spend the weekend with her daughter’s family and her young grandson. “His favorite part [of this event] is the chicks,” Konz said, holding on to the excited toddler, who was busy mumbling “chickens” while reaching into the plastic enclosure brimming with fuzzy yellow birds. “He just wants to jump in there and hold

some more future Block and Bridle Club members,” Romoser said. Sarah Lennon, 11, in attendance with her sister Megan, 8, and mother Jenny Johannsen, said her favorite part of the event was the baby animals. “I like the chicks … and the pigs,” Lennon said. Johannsen said the three of them had come right at the start of the event, and seen most of the exhibits by about 10:30 a.m.. “Since they cancelled Veishea, this is a really nice way to get visibility for these clubs and majors,” Johannsen said. “I think this is a really nice facility that a lot of people have

wondered about as they go by, so it’s nice to see the inside of it. … But we can’t leave unless we get a ribeye sandwich.” In closing, Pittz said she was ecstatic the event went so well, and the advertising seemed to have paid off. “It’s been great so far and I hope it goes this well again next year!” Pittz said. Animal Learning Day was put on by a coalition of sponsors including the Iowa Pork Producers, the Iowa Beef Industry Council, the Iowa Sheep Industry Association, Olde Main Brewing Co. and Restaurant, the ISU Dairy Science Extension Division and the ISU Dairy Science Club.

Families engage in activities at Family Fest By Lindsay.Greifzu @iowastatedaily.com Squeals of laughter filled Ames High School gymnasium Saturday afternoon as the Story County Community Partnerships for Protecting Children hosted its third annual Family Fest. Open and free to the whole community, Family Fest showcased the resources and activities available for families in Story County. Kids of all ages and their families had fun with face painting, inflatables, Cy, ISU spirit squads, the Ames Fire Department and a raffle drawing with prizes.

In support with the Department of Human Services and Story County Decategorization, Story County Community Partnerships for Protecting Children — CPPC — puts on this event. This was only the third year CPPC has hosted Family Fest. Natalie Hashemi-Toroghi is the Decategorization coordinator for CPPC, and as one of the main planners in charge of Family Fest, she emphasized the importance of this event for families and children. “We really want to showcase all the different agencies and provide resources so families in the area can know what’s avail-

able to take creative action to fill that gap,” HashemiToroghi said. AmeriCorps, a government program focused on national and community service, was also helpful in this event going off without a hitch. Members of the Des Moines chapter of Bikers Against Child Abuse or B.A.C.A, an organization that focuses on taking a stand against all forms of child abuse, were a big part of the attendance Saturday. “We’re really here to empower kids, make them feel safe and help them not to be afraid of the world,” said K-Bomb, a B.A.C.A. member.

Speaker offers advice from own experiences serving in the Navy By Kelly.McGowan @iowastatedaily.com An Iowa State Navy ROTC midshipman walked into a classroom after drill in the mid ’70s, amid the nation’s public controversy surrounding the Vietnam War. Seeing his uniform, the professor told him he could drop the class or stay and take an F. He dropped the class. “Unfortunately, there were a few very liberal leaning instructors and professors who voiced their views,” said retired Navy Capt. Douglas MacCrea. “Who am I, a 20 year old, to tell a professor, ‘you’re wrong?’” MacCrea started at Iowa State near the end of the “very unpopular” Vietnam War, he said. MacCrea went on to commission and served a career in the Navy, which brought him back to Iowa State as the NROTC commanding officer and professor of naval science from 2004 to 2007.

IMPERIALISM IS THE WAY OF THE WORLD By Clay.Rogers @iowastatedaily.com

he sad reality of the world is you either have an empire or you’re part of someone’s empire. From Ukraine to Iraq and from Xinjiang to Kashmir, the new empires come forth. When Winston Churchill foolishly destroyed the British Empire he “passed the torch” to America. As the American hegemony comes to an end we will find, to our horror, that democratic internationalism is not the way of the future. The world is more cruel and horrifying than most college students are willing to admit. The real world does not share a college student’s fanciful ideas of “multiculturalism” and “globalism.” The real world is concerned with wealth and survival. It is for these reasons that empire is an unshakeable reality of the Earth. Like gravity, it doesn’t care how you feel about it. We are told incessantly that “Putin is rebuilding the Russian Empire.” What drivel this is. It is Russia who is defending against the imperialism of the West. Since the end of the Cold War, Russia has given up control of more than 500,000 square miles of Eastern Europe, much of which now belongs to the government in Brussels. When Russia desperately attempts to save some of its ancient territories we portray the country as the aggressor. The hypocrisy of the Ukraine crisis is unbelievable. Last year, the Russian government released a recording of Assistant Secretary of State Victoria Nuland in a phone conversation with Geoffrey Pyatt, the U.S. ambassador to Ukraine. The two appeared to be engineering the Ukrainian

election in a way we claim we’re against. How can we say that the Russian backed government of Yanukovych was morally wrong when our own State Department is engaged in electing a puppet? Perhaps it’s time to be honest about foreign policy. We have an imperial interest in Ukraine and that’s why we make Putin into “Hitler.” Not a word is raised about any other country that is in occupation of formerly sovereign land, so why is Russia singled out? The most terrifying of all empires is China. It was once believed that freedom led to prosperity and totalitarianism to poverty. China has taught us that prosperity can exist in a sinister racist police state. The Chinese government has pursued a policy of colonization of Xinjiang in hopes that the flood of migrants will swamp, and eventually replace, the native Muslim population. The Chinese are also in military occupation of Tibet, forcing the Dalai Lama to live abroad. Yet, those who are concerned about Russia in Ukraine don’t raise a word about China. Xi Jinping makes Putin look like a saint but Obama doesn’t put sanctions on China. Recep Tayyip Erdogan, president of Turkey, is more a military dictator and is an imperialist of the first degree. The nation of the Armenian Holocaust is currently in military occupation of Northern Cyprus. The Turkish government also subjugates 14 million Kurds who would rather have their own country. Why is Putin compared to Hitler and Erdogan part of NATO? The Franco-German Empire of the European Union has wiped away the independent nation states of Europe. People used to hold up photographs of German soldiers tearing down border

crossings in the ‘40s and say, “Look how terrible this is!” Now there’s a “European Passport” and Europeans may cross the border between Germany and France without even a momentary stop. What was the 1939-45 war for if France was going to merge with Germany anyway? Iran, with our help, has become a great empire. When George Bush invaded Iraq and ousted Saddam Hussein, he effectively handed Iraq over to the Shia Persians. Now the Iranians are in control of four capitals — Tehran, Baghdad, Damascus and Sana’a. Iranian Revolutionary Guards are helping the Shia militias in Iraq and the Assad regime in Syria, but Obama wants to lift sanctions on the mullahs and place sanctions on the Russians. If building an empire is a grand crime worthy of sanctions, then we should have to embargo half the Earth, including ourselves. Many people, like our president, look down their noses at our ancestors and make silly protestations about the “evils of imperialism.” In reality, Obama is one of the greatest imperial presidents to date, save George Bush. Obama’s imperial adventure in Libya ruined the lives of millions and created a failed state where journalists won’t even go because it’s so dangerous. Despite our incredible imperial disasters in Kosovo, Iraq, Afghanistan, Somalia, Libya and Syria, we still find time to lecture Russia on Ukraine. One of the saddest moments in recent history was the British handover of Hong Kong in 1997. In pouring rain, a regimental band piped “Auld Lang Syne” as the British garrison slow-marched out of the city. The scene looked very much like a funeral, and so it was. One empire died and was replaced by another, as it shall always be.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

Students have power to change Iowa State By Hillary Kletscher, senior in biological systems engineering and graduate student in business The past two years serving as student body president and vice president have been challenging and exhilarating, but most of all, they have been an honor. Partnering with and working for my fellow students has allowed us to improve our community with lasting impact. Thank you for the privilege of serving with you. Over the last year we’ve addressed issues concerning academics, student life and increased enrollment. We worked with the university to open ad-

ditional online testing centers during Finals Week in labs across campus and stressed the importance of long-term planning, which led to hiring a consulting firm. We advocated for and saw a tutoring wage increase of $1. We partnered with the Division of Student Affairs to open the Student Loan Education Office, dedicated to helping students plan for and understand their education payment options. We worked with the parking division to open an additional 95 parking spaces at night and on weekends. Student Government followed through on its commitment to monetarily support research for a Bike Share Program, and it continued partnering with

the Division of Student Affairs and College of Design on the initiative. We finalized the inclusion of a new bus stop sidewalk across from Maple-Willow-Larch, where CyRide No. 23 Orange drops off, as part of the Summer 2015 construction plan. We also continue to work closely with CyRide to recommend route changes and evaluate specific improvements to route No. 23 Orange. Student government stressed the importance of increased service and availability to students in the Thielen Student Health Center, especially with increased enrollment growth. We advocated for and saw the hiring of a consultant to recom-

mend solutions to the transportation congestion of Osborne Drive. The improvements we have made over the last year are numerous, but the change must continue. As an individual you have a voice. You have the power to inspire change. You can improve our campus, community and world. Your voices and opinions shaped our efforts in student government, and gave momentum to the improvements we can now enjoy. As a collection of individuals, as a student body, our impact is at its largest. Now is the time to make our mark and improve Iowa State for our peers and for the generations to come.

Gay conversion therapy is the act of attempting to alter someone’s sexual identity by means of “aversive therapy,” which uses shock therapy, for example, or induces nausea and vomiting while projecting homoerotic images, and is by its very nature a sinister practice. Even if we take away the intent of the process, the methods by which the therapy is performed and the fact that they are performed on children is enough to make the therapy a questionable practice. In fact, there is no longer a question as to the idiocy of gay conversion therapy in the eyes of almost every professional mental health organization. The White House announced its support for banning the practice of gay conversion therapy Tuesday at the state level in response to a petition that received more than 120,000 signatures. Iowa has a bill that would ban the practice from being performed on those younger than 18, but it will likely hit a wall in a Republican dominated state government. However, similar legislation has already been passed in California and the District of Columbia, while 18 other states, including Iowa, have proposed legislation to ban gay conversion therapy. Only one state — Oklahoma, the home state of U.S. Sen. James Inhofe, who claims to have never had a gay family member or divorce in his family and apparently also has never seen a snowball in February — proposed legislation to protect the practice, but the bill did not pass. However, the abusive and destructive methods are made only more despicable when we consider the end goal of the therapy. The goal is to make young boys and girls believe they are flawed. The goal is to make people believe the way they peacefully love is wrong. The goal, most terribly, is to make boys and girls feel less of themselves. It is a disgusting process and it is one we must not abide in the state of Iowa and if you asked President Obama, any other state. The point is that there is significant national sentiment for banning the process and Iowan politicians should not feel they are establishing a national precedent, but instead doing their jobs by responding to the changing feelings and priorities of their constituents. We live in Iowa, a state that was among the first to legalize same-sex marriage. Keeping that fact in mind, what ground do we have to stand on to attempt to stop people from being gay, lesbian, transgender or however they are born? Even if the bill passed in Iowa, gay conversion therapy would only be prohibited for use on people under the age of 18. If a person is so inclined, they would be, and should be as citizens of the United States with power over their own lives, able to seek therapy. However, we would no longer be forcing the treatment on minors who may very well be perfectly happy just the way they are. Instead, performing this life-altering, potentially life-destroying practice on children would finally be called what it really is: a crime.

Paul Rhoads reacts to ISU spring football game By Max.Dible @iowastatedaily.com Iowa State’s spring game drew 7,500 fans. From the spring game, ISU coach Paul Rhoads drew a few conclusions. Some of those conclusions were positive, some were less so, and one in particular provided the overarching theme of both the day and spring practices in their entirety — the Cyclones have quite a piece yet to go before they’re ready to take the field at Jack Trice for real. “I thought there was a lot of energy on the field today,” Rhoads said. “We still have a long way to go with what we are working to accomplish offensively and defensively.” D-Fence Rhoads was more complimentary of the defensive unit as a whole than he was of the offense. “I thought as a defense, they tackled well,” Rhoads said. “I thought they limited space that the offense had to work with, and that’s something critical to our success as we move forward in this league. Whether it be run game space or quick pass game space, it’s something that’s been a priority to us.” The defense of both squads combined to record

six sacks, two interceptions and one 55-yard touchdown after Darian Cotton, who was injured later in the game, picked off a pass and took it to the house. Cotton received an X-ray on his thumb, which did not show a break of any kind. In all, the two defenses surrendered a grand total of 33 offensive points, including three touchdowns and four Cole Netten field goals. Cornerback Sam E. Richardson patrolled the defensive backfield, tallying five solo tackles and two pass breakups, while junior college transfer Demond Tucker displayed his skill set for the ISU fans for the first time on the defensive line. Tucker, like expected starter at middle linebacker Jordan Harris, came to Iowa State from Copiah-Lincoln Community College in Mississippi. He was the No. 3 ranked defensive tackle by ESPN in this year’s junior college transfer class. Tucker recorded one tackle for loss and broke up one pass. “I got a lot on me,” Tucker said. “So everybody [is] expecting a lot and I’m putting everything I got out there, so I’m going to be great.” An offensive showing Rhoads was less impressed with his offense, particularly the play of his starting quarterback and

the two young running backs who were featured on Saturday. “Offensively, we’ve had too many balls batted down and some of the stuff we’re trying to do as an offense, that can’t take place,” Rhoads said. “[I was] not pleased overall with Sam [B. Richardson] or Joel [Lanning’s] completion percentage as it ended up, but Grant [Rohach’s] was fantastic.” Richardson’s accuracy was sub-50 percent on the day, as he completed only 11-of-23 passes for 145 yards to go along with one touchdown and one interception. Rohach was far more successful, posting a 13-of-18 mark for 186 yards, one touchdown and one pick of his own. Despite what the head coach described as the backup’s best day of the entire spring, Rhoads added that it will have no effect on the depth chart. Richardson was the starter coming into the spring game and remained the starter coming out of it. Another area of intrigue was the running back position. The Cyclones struggled mightily to move the ball on the ground last season due to a lack of physicality. The same problem persisted throughout the spring and into Saturday’s public scrimmage.

Charlie Coffey/Iowa State Daily

Redshirt senior quarterback Sam Richardson hands the ball off to redshirt sophomore running back Tyler Brown during Iowa State’s spring football game at Jack Trice Stadium on Saturday.

“We’ve got to run more physical and behind our pads more,” Rhoads lamented. “We miss Martinez Syria right now, I think that’s obvious. He’s the one true guy that moves the pile. Mike [Warren] and Tyler [Brown] are capable of that,

and in my opinion did not do a good enough job of that today.” Warren netted 41 yards on the ground via eight carries, while Brown tallied only 22 yards on the same number of backfield touches. Brown did add a 45-yard

touchdown through the air, however, but it came against defensive backups. Clifford Kwaw-Mensah led the team in rushing with 50 yards, scoring the only touchdown on the ground, but also did so against backup defensive players.

Few surprises, answers highlight ISU spring football game By Alex.Gookin @iowastatedaily.com The Cyclones hit the field at Jack Trice Stadium for the first time since ending their 2014 campaign that left more questions than answers. The 2015 Cyclone Gridiron Club Spring Game didn’t offer many hard answers as many potential starters sat out with injuries, but some surprises stirred some excitement into the spring scrimmage. But with no scoring, no punting and a lot of names that are buried deep on the fall depth chart, it’s hard to draw many conclusions from the game. For ISU coach Paul Rhoads, the conclusion of the spring practice season has given the team

something to work toward going into the fall. “We still have a long ways to go with what we are working to accomplish offensively and defensively,” Rhoads said. “What I take away from today, I thought as a defense they tackled well, I thought they limited space the offense had to work with. ... Offensively, we’ve had too many balls batted down. With some of the stuff we’re trying to do as an offense, that can’t take place.” While Dondre Daley, Quan West, D’Vario Montgomery, Orion Salters and Brett Medders sat out for a receiving corps that was plagued by injuries and surgeries in the offseason, Trever Ryen and Darius LeeCampbell offered a spark for

the offense that appears to make the deepest position of the team even deeper. Ryen, a redshirt sophomore, was the team’s leader with six catches for 146 yards and a touchdown, showing some speed in the open field during his 49-yard touchdown catch and scamper. Rhoads went as far to call him the “MVP of the game” if there was one, as the redshirt sophomore hopes to see some playing time on special teams this year. “I didn’t think I was going to get much playing time [in the spring game],” Ryen said. “I was struggling [this spring], I didn’t really want to get out there. One touchdown in spring practice kind of led to another one and another one and I just took off from there.”

But while some new faces made some noise for the offense, returning receivers Allen Lazard and Quenton Bundrage made appearances despite Bundrage not seeing any contact. The two each had four catches for 50 and 39 yards, respectively. Rhoads had said all offseason that quarterback Sam Richardson would be their No. 1 guy heading into 2015, but it was Grant Rohach who impressed the most, completing 13-of-18 passes for 186 yards and a touchdown. Richardson completed just 11-of-23 passes for 145 yards, while Joel Lanning completed 11of-27 for 125. “Grant had his best day of the spring, by far,” Rhoads said. “I wasn’t dis-

appointed with any of those guys. ... There’s no need to read anything into Grant’s performance and where that takes the No. 2 position or No. 3 position or starting position.” Defensively, Kamari Cotton-Moya and Darien Cotton each hauled in an interception off deflected passes, with Cotton returning his 55 yards for a touchdown. He would later leave the field with a hand injury, but Rhoads said there were no broken bones. But it was Demond Tucker that showed why he was the defensive player of the year in the JUCO ranks. The defensive line transfer only recorded one tackle, but it was an explosive hit to a running back for a loss. He also recorded a pass breakup

as an active body on the defensive line. Rhoads said Tucker, along with the other JUCO players who participated in the spring fame, are ahead of the curve in comparison to other mid-year transfers in his six years as head coach. But that’s not enough for Tucker. “Right now I think I’ve got a little bit more work to do, but I’ve got to get some more conditioning and get in shape, but when I get there I think I can be excellent,” Tucker said. While the spring game failed to answer many questions about the team that will likely step on the field on Sept. 7 against Northern Iowa, it gave Rhoads and the team a direction as they prepare for fall practice.

Junior Brittany Gomez slides into third base during the second game of Iowa State’s double header against Oklahoma State on Saturday. Iowa State won the second game 5-3 after loosing the first.

Cyclones show grit, snap losing streak vs. Oklahoma State By Ryan.Leon @iowastatedaily.com

first. The pitching change swung the game in the Cyclones’ favor, when senior Stacy Roggentien took the mound. She was brilliant, only allowing three hits for the remainder of the game. “Coach always tells me to just be ready, so when things went wrong, I was warmed up and ready to play with my usual confidence,” Roggentien said. After the rough start, the offense seemed to click. The Cyclones finally got on the board in the third, and got over the hump in the sixth. The Cyclones erupted for the deciding four runs, pulling out a 5-1 comeback. “We finally started to hit out spots,” said junior centerfielder Brittany Gomez. “We started to play our game that inning.” This display of will was a huge momentum boost for the team, and kept Iowa State from digging a bigger hole in the loss column. The Cyclones entered their final game against the Cowgirls on a six-game losing streak. “It’s always good to get out of a slump, but what really matters is what you can do with a fresh start,” said ISU coach Stacy Gemeinhardt-Cesler. The Cyclones are back in action Wednesday against the Hawkeyes. The game has extra meaning, not only because it is a rivalry game, but because it will be the deciding factor in the Iowa Corn Cy-Hawk Series.

The ISU softball team managed a comeback victory in a double-header to avoid being swept by Oklahoma State. After a rough start to the series, the Cyclones showed resolve and were able to right the ship after two losses to the Cowgirls. The Cyclones couldn’t seem to catch a break in the first two games. They were run off the field in their first matchup, getting dominated in almost every facet of the game. The Cowgirls held the Cyclones scoreless until the final inning of the shortened game. That final inning run may have seemed like a moot point, but in retrospect it may have galvanized the team for its coming games in the series. The Cyclones would come out firing in the second game, scoring three right out of the gate. Even though they would come up short thanks to a three-run sixth inning by the Cowgirls, the Cyclones showed the necessary grit that any team needs to be successful. With all the building momentum, it might have appeared the Cyclones were poised for another quick start and possibly a substantial victory. That plan of action was quickly derailed when starting pitcher Katie Johnson was pulled after giving up three runs in the

Junior sprinter/hurdler Alyssa Gonzalez finishes first in the 400-meter hurdles at the Jim Duncan Invitational in Des Moines on Saturday. Gonzalez crossed the finish line with a time of 1:00.24, breaking her previous personal record in the event by .69 seconds.

SHOWING PROGRESS ISU track, field athletes make improvements at Jim Duncan Invitational By Kyle.Heim @iowastatedaily.com The Jim Duncan Invitational provided little in terms of importance for the ISU women’s track and field coaches. And while 75 percent of the team that competed focused on gaining experience, the invitational served a much greater purpose for one ISU athlete. Junior Alyssa Gonzalez has spent her first outdoor track season as a Cyclone specializing in the 400-meter hurdles, and spent the past week of practice improving the final 200 meters of her race. “My first 200 meters of my race is really smooth [but] the last 200 meters is really rough,” Gonzalez said. “I start getting sloppy over the hurdles, so it takes up a lot of my time. This meet, I really focused a lot on being prepared.”

The work she put in during practice was evident in her performance. Gonzalez finished first in the race with a time 1:00.24, breaking her previous personal record by .69. “I’m really happy about how the race went,” Gonzalez said. “I don’t really care so much about the place. I’m happy that I won but I’m more happy with the time and how the actual execution of the race was.” Gonzalez said she felt more comfortable competing close to home after traveling to Arizona and Alabama for the previous two meets. “I feel more in my element, even though we’re not at Iowa State,” Gonzalez said. “I feel it’s less of a burden being away from home. I just feel more comfortable running here.” Gonzalez wasn’t the only athlete on the wom-

en’s team to have success at Drake. Redshirt freshman Katie Reeves began the day for the Cyclones with a second place finish in the high jump. “We’ve been working on a lot of technique stuff that hasn’t been going the greatest the last few meets and it finally came together this meet,” Reeves said. “It was probably the best I’ve felt all year.” ISU associate head coach Fletcher Brooks said he was pleased with the fact that Reeves was able to implement some of the pieces of her technique they had been working on less than 24 hours before she competed. Reeves said the ultimate goal is to score at Big 12s and believes she can get there if she continues to improve. Redshirt seniors Anna Holtermann and Kayla Sanborn rounded out

competition for the Cyclones at the invitational, finishing third and fifth, respectively, in the hammer throw. “I thought [Holtermann and Sanborn] were solid,” Brooks said. “They were both pretty beat up and sore from training. I think it was a solid performance considering what we’ve been doing as far as the workload.” The Cyclones have three meets on the schedule for this week, including the Mt. SAC Relays, the Kansas Relays and the LSU Alumni Gold. The team will return to Drake for the Drake Relays on April 22. “Getting this race in before the Drake Relays was really nice to be able to feel the track, know what to expect and no where the hurdles are and everything,” Gonzalez said. “It’s just another step in preparing myself for my future races.”

HEALTHY RELATIONSHIP ADVICE: BE STRAIGHTFORWARD ABOUT YOUR FEELINGS By Emily.Barske @iowastatedaily.com The wonderful, and terrible, thing about feelings is that all of ours differ. Many times feelings between two people are not mutual. Throughout the experiment, Daily Daters Ashley and Matthew were at times uncertain about their feelings toward one another. Near the beginning of this experiment, Ashley said she felt she could see herself dating Matthew, but was unaware of how he felt. Mat-

ers. Be obvious. Even if you think you’re being obvious, be more obvious.” Even with these seemingly obvious signs, it is important to be clear about their feelings for the other so that no one is misinterpreted or hurt in the process. If a relationship is going to form, then both people have to be aware of the other person’s feelings and intentions for the relationship. Find out how Ashley’s and M atthew ’s feelings changed throughout the experiment below.

BE KIND “It’s not you; it’s me.” Well maybe it is him or her, but this isn’t the time to air all your dirty laundry. Instead of focusing on the fact they didn’t open the door for you on your last three dates, focus in on something you enjoyed about your relationship. Remind them that you’ve always appreciated their sense of humor or their ability to be spontaneous. Then stick to your guns with “…but I think we are better as friends.” This shows that you genuinely care for them, but you desire a change in relationship status.

ASHLEY & MATTHEW

BE PREPARED Rushing into a conversation ill-prepared is not suggested. Not only will you find yourself talking in circles but you may say something you regret. Jot down notes or practice your talking points beforehand. Keep in mind, it’s often difficult for a couple to “remain friends,” at least in the immediate period after the breakup. Don’t force interactions, and at all costs, avoid throwing a rebound relationship in the face of your partner. This could create an even more complicated emotional situation. When all is said and done, it’s important that you respect the individual and the situation.

thew admitted that one of his personal faults is sending mixed signals. “Be aware of what the other person is doing and how they are acting and you can kind of read it from there,” Daily Dater Ashley said. “I can never tell when a guy likes me, so be super obvious.” Matthew agreed that it’s important to show someone you’re interested. “If I like a girl, I do big extravagant things to show her I like her — I’ll make a big dinner and give her flow-

JOURNAL ENTRIES: HOW DO YOU FEEL ABOUT YOUR MATCH? AT THE BEGINNING OF THE EXPERIMENT: Matt: “It’s hard to tell how she feels about me because in a normal relationship you both know there is some sort of mutual attraction, but with this the regulated time spent together means we won’t always enjoy the time we spend together due to being forced to when we might have more pressing matters.” Ashley: “I am not sure. I just haven’t known him for a long time yet, but I wouldn’t mind getting to know him more!” IN THE MIDDLE OF THE EXPERIMENT: Matt: “She is nice, but not really someone I want a long-term relationship with.” Ashley: “If I were being honest...I really like him and I am sure if things continue to go as they are then I will be in danger of falling for him completely.”

Matt: “I just view her as a friend at this point. Maybe something else will develop.” Ashley: “I just want to keep getting to know him more. I don’t really know enough about him yet.” NEAR THE END OF THE EXPERIMENT: Matt: “She is nice, but the required time spent together is making it so she is starting to get on my nerves. I also feel like our feelings do not match up.” Ashley: “He is an awesome guy that I enjoy hanging out with.”

BE FACE TO FACE “IT’S OVER. GTG.” Sure, a simple text between classes and you’re back on your way to Tinder town. However, put yourself in their shoes. This is a coward’s way out. Be the bigger person and respect your partner enough to make sure you have a face-to-face conversation.

FASHION p1 originally entered her senior line at the end of the fall 2014 semester. “The collection that you saw today was not what I tuned in last semester for my senior line,” Pearson said. “I did not like what I did for my original one, the only thing that stayed was that floral sweater. Everything else I did was done in the last four weeks.” Pearson completed six individual garments in addition to the rust colored, knit floral sweater. The chunky crewneck was knitted entirely by hand and the garment Pearson said was her favorite of all entries she submitted. Pearson said she feels her line represents herself as a designer more accurately than her original senior line entry.

MARKET p1 made items. Five organizations, including Dance Marathon and Motion Sickness, also put on performances. Kate Kelzenberg, a member of ISU Model United Nations, said the event is a great opportunity and the club would do it again next year. Kelzenberg said she believes one aspect of Cyclone Market that benefits the student organizations is the fact that it’s free for them to have a stand and promote their club. Cyclone Market was created by the Government of the Student Body in order to help student organizations receive funding. This year, funding was provided by GSB and the Inter-Residence Hall Association. “Student Government decided to reach out and give back to the clubs,” said Danielle Nygard, the head of the GSB committee organizing the event. “Organizations were always asking us for money, so this is a way

CLINTON p1 other Democrat and Republican candidates in 2007, and found her to be very personable,” Bystrom said. “I felt like she was very good one-on-one with people, she has the capability of doing that.”

“It’s basically just a showcase of what I think are my strongest skills,” Pearson said of her winning line. “So I’m a hand-knitter and I wanted to do something that highlighted that.” Pearson has been knitting for three years. She decided to take up knitting on her own. “My mom’s friend taught me the two basic stitches and then I YouTubed everything else,” Pearson said. Pearson purchases her materials like yarn and fabric from online vendors and local shops. “I used a lot of rayon’s, like a lot of natural, soft fabrics,” Pearson said. “(The fabrics) have a nice drape to them, so they can kind of be flowy and flirty with the knits.” The combination of

fabrics gave Pearson’s winning line a unique touch that could translate well to everyday wear. Anna Snyder, senior in horticulture, was one the models to walk in Pearson’s collection. The dusty blue, halter dress fit loosely and flowed as Snyder graced the runway. “I was so proud of [Pearson],” Snyder said. “I wore one of her outfits last year and they are always impeccably made. She puts a lot of time and detail into them, you can just tell they are really well done and everyone is just in awe over them.” As far as Pearson giving direction on how to represent her collection on the runway, she encouraged them to be natural and let the garments speak for themselves.

“She was pretty relaxed about it all she just wanted, you know, it to look good and be presented well,” Snyder said. “It could have been on anyone and probably would look amazing.” Pearson’s winning line was the final collection to walk the runway. The line left a lasting impression on the audience, just as it did for the judges two weeks prior. Still in shock of her success, Pearson has already made post graduation plans. Pearson has a full-time position will Raygun in Des Moines. “I think one day it would be really amazing to have my own business,” Pearson said. “But I don’t know if I want it to be in making clothing or selling fabrics or yarn, or something like that and just make things on the side for clients.”

for us to give back.” Student organizations used this opportunity to not only fundraise for their club, but to promote their organization and possibly recruit new members as well. Kelzenberg said their organization gained a few new members from the event. “I would say it’s more about promotion than the fundraising,” Kelzenberg said. “Unless you bring good stuff like food.” Some organizations chose not to sell anything, including the Dance Marathon organization. The club had carnival games and T-shirts for free. Caitie Hones, a member of Dance Marathon, said they were mostly just trying to get the word out about why students should join their club. “We’re encouraging people to work to learn more later on in the game, but it’s still pretty relaxed,” Hones said. Quinn Nordland, a member of Dance Marathon, said he thinks it’s

good that organizations get to meet perspective students as well. Nygard said she believe the event went fantastically. “The organizations have been telling me they’ve enjoyed it,” Nygard said. “I feel like it’s just really great and the spirit of everyone is really high.” Nygard said she estimated that about 1,500 people attended the event. This will be the second Cyclone Market in ISU history, the first having taken place in September of last semester. Nygard said the event was meant to have a farmers market feel to it. This was done by requiring the clubs to produce something The idea for the event was originally created by the University Affairs Committee of GSB in the spring of 2014. With the cancellation of Veishea, Cyclone Market became the opportunity for student organizations to get the fundraising opportunity they had lost after the loss of Veishea Village, where most clubs gained a majority of their funds.

Hones said she thinks Cyclone Market is a good replacement for Veishea Village. “There’s obviously less people but I think it’s still good to have,” Hones said. Nygard said it was not originally intended to be a replacement for Veishea Village. “Before Veishea was even cancelled, we were planning this for the fall,” Nygard said. “We figured Veishea Village was in the spring, so this was a great opportunity for the fall.” Nygard said with the cancellation of the event, the committee decided to hold Cyclone Market twice a year. After the event, Nygard said the committee will decide on whether or not to hold the event once or twice a year. They will also make improvements where they are needed and work on better public relations. Student organizations that wish to be involved in next year’s Cyclone Market can contact Danielle Nygard at drnygard@iastate. edu.

Clinton is the first Democrat to jump in the 2016 race. It is unknown if Clinton will have a serious primary challenge, but so far, former Maryland Gov. Martin O’Malley, former U.S. Sen. Jim Webb of Virginia and U.S. Sen. Bernie Sanders of Vermont seem

positioned to challenge Clinton. Progressive Democrats have called on U.S. Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., to jump into the race, but she has repeatedly said she is not running. “I think she’ll bring a message of “fairness” to the

middle class,” Bystrom said. “What you’ve seen recently is her talking a lot about the middle class and the economy.” Bystrom also said that type of economic message might win over some Elizabeth Warren supporters who are looking for a more

CAR CHASE p1 pute were to be pursued in court,” Gwiasda said in a statement to the Ames Tribune. Tyler Comstock, 19, of Boone, had been arguing with his father, James Co ms to ck, t he mo rn ing of Nov. 4, 2014, after which he took his father’s Spring-Green Lawn Care truck. James reported the truck stolen to police. “I have a citizen who has a Spring-Green truck with a trailer who reports his 19-year-old son just stole the truck and that it’s headed south on Grand. They were working together, son got mad at his dad, and hopped in the truck and just took off,” said an Ames police dispatcher on the audio recording. Police identified the vehicle and tried to conduct a traffic stop. “The vehicle’s not stopping,” an Ames officer said on the audio recording. “We are westbound on South 4th Street coming up to Beach.” progressive Democratic candidate this election. Clinton will also inevitably face questions over two controversies that have made headlines recently, including her use of a private email server as Secretary of State and the Clinton Foundation accepting donations

After Tyler backed the truck’s attached trailer onto a police car, sending the trailer onto a sidewalk near Richardson Court, he drove the wrong way on Morrill Road onto Central Campus, through a Homecoming banner and into a tree near Mackay Hall. Officers exited their vehicles, sidearms drawn, and approached the truck, and demanded Tyler shut off the vehicle. But he kept revving the engine. McPherson yelled commands to stop the engine, before six shots were fired, one of which hit Comstock in the head, and one in the chest. Comstock was taken to Mary Greeley Medical Center at about 10:45 a.m. and was later pronounced dead. In a previous interview with the Iowa State Daily, Shari Comstock, Tyler’s mother, referred to a quote from the police scanner when an unidentified Ames Police officer from dispatch said, “We know the suspect, so we can probably back it off.” from foreign governments. Clinton will not roll out detailed policy positions immediately, but the AP reported Saturday that Clinton’s campaign would focus on “boosting economic security” and “expanding opportunity of working families.”
