A VEHICLE DRIVES SLOWLY DOWN THE HILL ON INDIANA STREET Wednesday as snow blankets Lawrence. The view is from atop The Oread hotel, 1200 Oread Ave. Lawrence received an inch of snow. Crews were expected to work through the night to clear the roads in time for the morning commute. Temperatures are expected to be in the low 30s today and climb into the 50s and 60s Friday and Saturday. No further snow is in the immediate forecast. See the photo gallery online at LJWorld.com.

Topeka — It’s been three weeks since Gov. Sam Brownback announced during his State of the State address that he wants to repeal the school finance system and replace it with a system of “block LEGISLATURE grants” for the next two years while the Legislature develops a new funding formula.

A 50-year-old Perry man died Wednesday afternoon in a single-vehicle accident about six miles west of Lawrence on the Kansas Turnpike, Kansas Highway Patrol officials said.

Around 1:30 p.m.

Wednesday, Timothy Adam Lang was driving a 2005 Dodge pickup on the snowy westbound lanes on Interstate 70 and lost control of the vehicle, KHP Master Trooper Ryan Mosher said. The truck spun, then struck and wrapped around the north support beam of a bridge near the Lecompton exit.

Lang was the only person in the truck, Mosher said. Lawrence-Douglas

belt, the KHP accident report said.

City engineers were sent to the scene to determine the stability and safety of the bridge af-

ter the beam was struck, dispatchers said. An update on their determinations was not available Wednesday evening.

The slick road contributed to the accident, Mosher said, and flurries lowered visibility to about 100 yards.

The Kansas Department of Transportation said that at 2:30 p.m., about an hour after the accident, the stretch of I-70 from Lawrence to Topeka was “partly snow-packed” and “slushy.”

Emergency crews shut down the middle and right westbound lanes while investigating the scene, leaving one lane open.

The middle lane of traffic reopened around 3 p.m.

The right lane reopened shortly after 5 p.m.

“

You would never expect a business to run this way, so it’s really surprising that there’s no hesitation about asking school districts to run their systems in a complete policy vacuum.”

— Lawrence School Board President Shannon Kimball School Board President Shannon Kimball.

“We try very hard to do responsible planning as a district,” she said, “and to not have any idea what might be coming this year, next year or two to three years from now, it makes it very difficult for us to do our jobs effectively.”

Masterson provided few details of his bill, but said the intent is to make sure all districts get at least what they are receiving this year, and possibly more, with some adjustment for enrollment growth or decline.

That’s an important issue in Lawrence, which has typically grown by about 100 or 200 students a year for the last several years.

“I do not plan to let a block grant bill out that doesn’t have some allowance for growth,” Masterson said.

Meanwhile, efforts to put together a new funding formula are moving on a separate track, spearheaded mainly by Sen. Steve Abrams, R-Arkansas City, who chairs the Senate Education Committee.

Don was born in Menominee, Michigan, served in the U.S. Army in the Philippines, and graduated from Michigan Technological University with a degree in chemical engineering. He had a varied career in business and was both a writer and speaker on corporate strategic planning. He and his wife, Barbara, moved to Lawrence in 2005 to be closer to family members.

Don is survived by his wife of 65 years, Barbara Mansfield Smalter. He is also survived by their five children: Kent Smalter (Angela Nascimento), Janet Smalter (Mark Engelman), and Colleen Pederson (Todd), all of Lawrence, Ks. and Greg (Delia) Smalter

Abrams has said little in recent days about his plan, except that he is working on it and that it will be unveiled soon.

Few other legislators even know exactly who Abrams has been consulting in the process of developing a new plan.

“He is leading a group that includes some school superintendents, some (educational) service centers, some State Board (of Education) members and other parties of interest,” Masterson said.

Senate Republican Leader Terry Bruce of Hutchinson and Senate Democratic Leader Anthony Hensley of Topeka, who serves on the Education Committee, both said they have not been involved in Abrams’ efforts.

And Hensley said there are still serious questions about what it means to repeal the school finance formula, questions he said nobody has yet answered.

“One of which is, what happens to the (local option budgets),” Hensley said. “If the LOB goes out of existence, does that mean that school districts have unlimited authority to raise property taxes, or does it mean they have no authority at all? My guess is it means they have no authority at all.”

As of Wednesday evening, it wasn’t immediately clear whether the language to repeal the existing formula would be included in Masterson’s block grant bill or Abrams’ bill for a new formula.

and Martin (Jo) Smalter of Florida, fifteen grandchildren and three great-grandchildren.

Also his sister, Marilu (Basil) Duncan of Dumas, Texas.

He will be remembered by his family for a number of things, including his sincere and enduring love for his bride, his mixed marriage (he was conservative, she’s liberal), his devotion to the Green Bay Packers, a fondness for ice cream, and his firm conviction that there is another life awaiting us on the other side. We hope he is now busy with his orientation in a better place.

House OKs bill to close budget gap

By John Hanna Associated Press

Topeka — A stop-gap plan for closing Kansas’ current budget deficit and ensuring bills are paid on time won state House approval Wednesday, despite bipartisan criticism of the measure.

The 88-34 vote in the Republican-controlled House sent the measure to the GOP-dominated Senate. Top Republicans there hope to take an upor-down vote on the bill Thursday that could send it to Republican Gov. Sam Brownback.

The bill attacks a pro-

jected $344 million shortfall in the current budget mostly by diverting money from highway projects and special funds into the state’s main bank account, where the deficit occurs. It’s along the lines of a plan outlined by Brownback, but with tax collections falling short of expectations through January, a deficit of $800,000 would remain on June 30, according to new figures from legislative researchers.

And, even if the measure becomes law as expected, Brownback and lawmakers would have to close a $597 million short-

— Rep. Stephanie Clayton, R-Overland Park fall in the budget for the next fiscal year, which begins July 1, according to researchers’ latest figures. The state’s budget problems arose after lawmakers aggressively cut personal income taxes at Brownback’s urging in 2012 and 2013 to stimulate the economy.

More than a dozen House members lined up to submit explanations of

votes criticizing the budget-balancing bill, even though many of them voted yes. Several Republicans, more moderate than most of their colleagues, suggested lawmakers need to rethink the tax cuts, which dropped the top personal income tax rate 29 percent and exempted 191,000 business owners altogether.

The Kansan announced the change Wednesday, describing it as a move toward “digital-first” journalism.

tinue to defend the past tax reductions, saying they’ve made the state’s economy more dynamic.

“We need to first look at our spending,” said House Majority Leader Jene Vickrey, a conservative Louisburg Republican.

Among other things, the bill approved by the House would divert $158 million in highway funds into the state’s main bank account to cover spending on education,

Two competing bills in the Kansas Legislature would redefine how much bargaining power teachers unions have in negotiating master contracts with school districts.

Last week, four education groups representing teachers unions, school boards, superintendents and school administrators reached an agreement after 18 months of negotiations that would require negotiation of salaries, wages and hours worked, but it would allow each side to add five additional items that are most important to them.

A bill reflecting that compromise has been introduced in the Senate.

But on Wednesday, the House Education Committee heard testimony on another bill, one backed mainly by conservatives, that would limit the number of items that must be negotiated to just salaries and wages, and hours worked. Any other items, such as insurance benefits, dress codes, evaluation and disciplinary procedures, would only be open if both sides agree to negotiate them.

“The reason for this was so that they could make better efficiency and operating decisions for their school districts,” said Dave Trabert, president of the conservative think tank Kansas Policy Institute.

Trabert served last year on the K-12 Student Performance and Efficiency Commission, a special task force set up by the Legislature last year to study and recommend w a y s Trabert schools could be more efficient with the state funding they receive.

The majority report from that commission did not recommend any changes to the Professional Negotiations Act. But Trabert, and three others wrote a separate “minority report” that recommended sweeping restrictions on what districts do and don’t have to negotiate.

Trabert said the idea of limiting negotiations initially came from superintendents and school boards, and that the minority report reflects what those groups had wanted to begin with. He described the negotiated agreement as a “compromise.”

But representatives from the four education groups testified against Trabert’s proposal.

Cheryl Semmel, executive director of United School Administrators of Kansas, said the four groups were encouraged to work out an agreement Please see BILLS, page 5A

SETTING THE TABLE —————

Group of local culinary artists hopes to strengthen local food scene

By Joanna Hlavacek Twitter: @HlavacekJoanna

It’s an appropriately brisk Tuesday evening — the day before Lawrence’s first substantial snowfall of the year — and the air outside 715 restaurant hovers just above 40 degrees.

Still, the members of Lawrence Local Table — a recently formed collective of area culinary professionals — aren’t complaining. On Tuesday, the group hosted its first collaborative dinner at 715 to a nearpacked restaurant of about 60 diners.

The event, dubbed “The Cellar Supper,” took its inspiration from the traditional food-preservation techniques employed by Midwesterners

in the days before refrigeration.

“That was more of a play on the winter theme,” jokes Louis Wiggen-Toccalino during a predinner reception. “Of course, we didn’t know it was going to be 70 degrees last week.”

Luckily, temperatures cooled down just in time to make the most of the seven-course menu, which featured ingredients such as pickled confit mushrooms and fermented bean.

Wiggen-Toccalino, who owns Decade coffee shop, belongs to a core group of seven area culinary professionals who founded Lawrence Local Table late last year.

The goal is to create a network of local eateries that will ultimately

strengthen the Lawrence culinary scene, “putting us on par with, say, Kansas City,” he says.

“The last couple of years, there have been so many new businesses that so many people are talking about,” WiggenToccalino says. “And so, it’s just a way to weave that web together so that we all thrive as a group.”

The collective also includes Vaughn Good and Jay Tovar-Ballagh of Hank Charcuterie, Jess Anthony of Wood + Salt, Zach Thompson and Katrina Weiss from 715, and Taylor Petrehn from the soon-to-open 1900 Barker.

There are also the “sidekicks,” such as Kristine Hull, Good’s partner, who also help make it happen. About 20 people

in total volunteered to work The Cellar Supper on Tuesday night, lending their skills — cooking, serving, bartending — to the cause.

“It’s a really nice thing,” says Anthony, who also works as a server and bartender at 715. “All of us put our own money in to start this, and then I think we’re going to keep part of that budget rolling to do future events. This is like our seed pod, our starting point.”

Right now, there’s “a lot of potential” to work with, she says. The group is looking to expand, and with growing interest from other culinary professionals in town, odds are looking good for a second Lawrence Local Table meal as early as March or April.

MEMBERS OF LAWRENCE LOCAL TABLE prepare food.

The venues will change and so will the menus, says Vaughn Good, who envisions something a little more casual and “accessible to the masses.” He’s thinking barbecue or a wholehog roast.

Tuesday’s dinner, he admits, was a bit of a gamble, with Good’s favorite course of the night — a grilled duck heart, served over a sherry glass of dashi broth — causing the most trepidation.

He wasn’t sure how guests would respond to

the dish, but it turned out to be one of the night’s biggest hits.

With all the “positive feedback” generated from the meal, it seems folks are hungry for more of what Lawrence Local Table is dishing out.

“It was really fun to be in the kitchen and look out to see people eating grilled duck heart on a stick,” Good says.

Dream job: I would love to work in a paperie or letterpress shop doing calligraphy and making other paper goods.

What were you doing when scouted? We just got done looking at engagement rings.

Describe your style: Casual and comfortable but with some girly details. I am a bargain hunter and a sales rack type of person, always.

Fashion trends you love: I love the idea of mixing contrasting elements, like a feminine skirt with a men’s shirt.

Fashion trends you hate: It’s not technically a faux pas, but I think it looks so silly when someone dresses for the wrong season just because the weather changes a bit. Even though it’s like 60 today, it’s still [the end of] January, so don’t wear a sundress with sandals.

Fashion influences: I follow a lot of fashion bloggers on Instagram. Also, working in a corporate retail environment, I am surrounded by lots of trendy people every day — [there’s] lots of inspiration at work.

What would you like to see more or less of in Lawrence? More Mizzou fans, and a little less red and blue. But really, Lawrence is so cool already.

Being from Columbia, Mo., that’s saying a lot! We love the restaurant and music scene here.

Tattoos or piercings: I have two tattoos. My favorite says “Seventy X Seven.” It’s from a Bible verse about forgiveness. I got it to remind myself that I should always forgive others because I have already been forgiven.

Whom do people say you look like? Aimee Teegarden (Julie Taylor from “Friday Night Lights”) or sometimes Taylor Momsen.

Tell us a secret: I’m a little bit of a hoarder. And my boyfriend is a neat freak, so we have to compromise.

Clothing details: bag, $10, Payless; shoes, $40, Target; Buffalo David Bitton jeans, $70; Levi’s jacket, $30; shirt, gift, Urban Outfitters.

Relationship status: Taken Occupation: Social work with a focus on domestic and sexual violence Dream job: A touring musician What were you doing when scouted? Shopping for an engagement ring.

Describe your style: I’m pretty casual. I’m almost always wearing a button-down shirt. It’s a very minimalist style with basic items like Vans [sneakers]. I do a lot of blacks, grays and darker colors, mostly. It’s a balance between a classic and skater look.

Fashion trends you love: I like a more simple, cleaner and gentlemanly look. Nothing super dressy but a lot of basic button-ups, slimfitting clothes, cardigans, boots and plain, generic, nonbasketball-type sneakers.

Fashion trends you hate: Flashy men’s clothing with lots of embellishments and “bedazzled” details.

Fashion influences: Besides working retail in the past, it’s from being in the music scene most of my life; that’s where I get a lot of my ideas.

What would you like to see more or less of in Lawrence? More affordable versions of high-end fashion brands and stores like H&M. Less of? Nothing, really!

Everyone I have been in contact with has been cool.

Tattoos or piercings: Nose ring and several tattoos. My favorite one says “It aint eazy being weezy” [with a picture of an inhaler]. My brothers and I all have asthma, and now we all have the same tattoo. It’s something I’ve been dealing with my entire life, and the fact that I share it with my brothers is important to me.

And it caters to my sense of humor.

Whom do people say you look like? Nev from “Catfish,” Aziz Ansari, and sometimes Adam Levine.

Tell us a secret: I have a bit of hoarders anxiety. Clutter makes me panic!

Kansan board members said the importance of preparing students to meet the “media workplace of the future� also affected their decision to cut back on print, according to KU.

Because the measure focuses on shifting money around to cover the current budget’s shortfall, it pushes part of the problem into the next fiscal year, where the gap previously had been projected at $436 million.

County planning capital improvements

By Elliot Hughes Twitter: @elliothughes12

The Douglas County Commission on Wednesday began discussing its 2015-2019 capital improvements plan, a rolling playbook that outlines the county’s upcoming renovation and construction projects.

Several additions are made every year, most of them small-scale building, road and bridge maintenance items. But a number of projects will either break ground or wrap up in 2015. Here are the biggest ones on the ticket:

New Public Works facility The soon-to-be-built 59,000-square-foot facility along East 25th Street will house the county’s Public Works Depart-

ment. Once the move the energy efficiency in is complete, the county several buildings. Several hopes to sell or renovate other buildings will be the current dwellings at knocked down.

East 1700 Road improvements About a three-mile stretch of East 1700 Road, between North 400 Road and North 700 Road north of Baldwin City, will be “busy all year,� according to Keith Browning, the county’s public works director. Culverts and pavement will be replaced, shoulders constructed, trees removed and a bridge replaced to improve road safety.

Timeline: Construction will last from March through the end of October. That stretch will be closed off for much of that time, Browning said.

Price tag: A total of $2.38 million, with more work coming for East 1700 Road in 2016 and 2017.

during the 2013 session, after contentious debates over an earlier bill to limit collective bargaining.

Mark Tallman, a lobbyist for the Kansas Association of School Boards, said members of his organization had authorized the association to negotiate an agreement, and that the association would not support any other proposal besides the one that was negotiated.

The committee only heard testimony on the bill Wednesday. There was no immediate word on when the panel would debate the bill or vote on sending it to the full House.

Is it true that Lawrence school district administrators took a limo to hear President Barack Obama speak? If so, who paid for it and were any district teachers invited to attend as well?

A:

Lawrence school district vans were used to shuttle a group of about 20 people, including students, teachers, staff members, school principals and district administrators, from the school district office to Kansas University to hear Obama speak, said Julie Boyle, the district’s communications director.

Sister’s stealing could be sign of mental illness Dear Annie: My twin sister and I are 57. Every time she visits me, she takes things. Often, I don’t realize the things are missing until I need to use them or when I want to wrap them as gifts, which is what happened last Christmas.

When this has happened in the past, I’ve confronted my sister, but she denies taking anything.

However, during my last visit to her new home, I caught her. I was hanging up my clothes in the closet, and to my shock, the top shelf had several of my missing things.

I called my sister in to explain, and of course, she couldn’t lie about not stealing the items I could plainly see.

I’m financially better off than my twin, but she does quite well, too.

I have always been there for her when she needed

anything. She lived with me for several years when she had nowhere else to go, and I helped her get out of debt.

My brother also steals from me when he stays here. And when my sister came last week, after she gave me her word that she could be trusted, I discovered several items missing.

Is there a reason people do this? — Kansas Twin Dear Twin: Your twin may suffer from kleptomania, an impulse con-

Ridiculous spy thriller still gripping “Imitation is the sincerest form of television.” So said humorist Fred Allen some 60 years ago. But lately, the imitation game has become baffling.

It would be easy to confuse “Allegiance” (9 p.m., NBC) with FX’s “The Americans.” Both series concern Russian spies deeply embedded in American society. And like “Homeland,” this new spy thriller is adapted from an Israeli series. It stars the excellent actress Hope Davis, who appeared on HBO’s “In Treatment,” also borrowed from Israeli TV! Davis stars as Katya O’Connor, a KGB operative who walked away from the old Soviet Union and the spy game when she married businessman Mark O’Connor (Scott Cohen), whom she was supposed to get to defect to the Soviet cause.

A practicing pediatrician, Katya believes that her spy days are decades behind her and as dead as the old U.S.S.R. That changes when the current Russian spy agency gets wind of the fact that Katya and Mark’s brilliant son, Alex (Gavin Stenhouse), has become one of the CIA’s newest agents and assets.

Katya balks at rejoining the old firm and, worse, spying on her own son, but Mark convinces her that it would be better for everybody’s health if they played along.

A stellar cast and some exciting spy vs. spy action will grab viewers in spite of the show’s thoroughly preposterous plot.

As on “24,” even when the world itself is at stake, it’s all in the family.

The accent is put on Alex and his near-superhuman powers of perception and deduction. At one point, he pinpoints a target’s whereabouts by merely sniffing his sports jacket and recognizing the stonework unique to his location. He’s Sherlock Holmes with a bloodhound nose!

With the emphasis on Alex’s savantlike abilities, “Allegiance” resembles the over-thetop network thriller “Scorpion” more than the smart cable dramas that it clearly emulates.

“Allegiance” joins “The Blacklist” to form a strong espionagethriller block for NBC. The network will debut “The Slap” next Thursday, adapted from an Australian family drama.

Your risk of developing this mental health disorder is increased if you have a parent or sibling with kleptomania, obsessive-compulsive disorder or a substance abuse problem. Your siblings seem to qualify.

You can talk to your sister, saying that you are worried about her, and suggest she ask her doctor for a referral to a mental health professional.

Dear Annie: I hope my question is not too far out of line. I have noticed many people are not able to talk without using their hands. And they can’t seem to keep their hand movements to a reasonable limit. I recently stopped watch-

Changing history?

The willingness of the state historical society to alter an illustration used in a Kansas Capitol display is both offensive and surprising.

A

ltering a historical illustration to materially change its message isn’t a matter of causing offense, it’s a matter of historical accuracy.

It seems like the Kansas State Historical Society would get that but maybe not.

A doctored version of a historical illustration, “Voting in Kickapoo,” has been removed from the visitors center at the Kansas Capitol after a state legislator — who happens to be a history teacher — pointed out that key elements of the scene had been removed.

The original picture showed illegal Missouri voters who had crossed the state line in an effort to stuff the ballot box in favor of pro-slavery candidates. After they voted, they were lining up to get a shot of whiskey at a nearby stand and perhaps get in line to vote again.

However, after eliminating the “Down with the Abolitionists” sign under the polling window and the word “whiskey” on the neighboring stand, the illustration became not an accurate portrayal of Kansas history but a way to promote voting in Kansas.

“We hadn’t intended to offend anyone,” a historical society representative said. “The whole thing is encouraging people to vote.”

That’s a good message, said Sen. Greg Smith, R-Overland Park, but it’s not the message of the original illustration which had been published in a book that included a discussion of the 1855 election in Kansas Territory, an election marked by massive illegal voting.

The story of the election is “complicated” according to the historical society spokeswoman and would have been difficult to explain, especially to young children, in the visitors center display.

Yes, Kansas history is a little complicated, but that doesn’t mean we simply alter it to fit a particular agenda. That kind of convenient editing is something one might expect from an advertising agency but not from the state’s historical society.

The illustration is gone, and a replacement is being sought. Obviously this is far from the most significant issue raised at the state Capitol this year, but it nonetheless is surprising and embarrassing for an agency charged with preserving and presenting an accurate account of Kansas history.

U.S. lowers economic expectations Washington — Two phrases that Daniel Patrick Moynihan put into America’s political lexicon two decades ago are increasingly pertinent. They explain the insufficient dismay about recent economic numbers.

Moynihan said that when deviant behaviors — e.g., violent crime, or births to unmarried women — reach a certain level, society soothes itself by “defining deviancy down.” It destigmatizes the behaviors by declaring them normal.

And sometimes, Moynihan said, social problems are the result of “iatrogenic government.” In medicine, an iatrogenic ailment is inadvertently induced by a physician or medicine; in social policy, iatrogenic problems are caused by government.

When the economy grew by just 2.6 percent in 2014’s fourth quarter, The New York Times headline cheerfully said “Economy Pulls Ahead.” The story said the U.S. economy is “an island of relative strength” in a world facing “renewed torpor and turmoil.” This was defining failure down.

The Wall Street Journal said “U.S. Economy Hits Speed Bumps,” as though speedy growth had been normal for a while. The speeding had consisted of one quarter (2014’s third) of 5 percent growth. But the economy had gone 43 consecutive quarters without 5 percent growth, the longest such period since the government began keeping the pertinent records in 1947. And even with this third quarter, growth for 2014 was

George Will

Economic weakness — new business formations are at a 35-year low — is both a cause and a consequence of alarming cultural changes.” just 2.4 percent, making this the ninth consecutive year under 3 percent. During the recovery from the recession of 1981-82, there were five quarters of 7 percent or higher growth, and five years averaged 4.6 percent growth.

There also was unmerited triumphalism about November’s job growth of 353,000.

This was just the fifth month of 300,000-plus growth in the 68 months since the sluggish recovery began in June 2009. In the 1960s, there were nine months of 300,000-plus job creation — and at its highest, in 1969, the nation’s population was nearly 118 million smaller than today’s. In the 1980s, there were 23 months of 300,000-plus jobs, and the nation’s population in 1989 was 73 million smaller than today’s 320 million.

By the time — April 2014

— the economy returned to the number of jobs it had before the recession began in December 2007 there were 15 million more Americans.

Nicole Gelinas writes in the Manhattan Institute’s City Journal: “A healthy economy should add 200,000 new jobs every month, even when it’s not recovering from a recession. By that standard, America should have 133 million people working in the private sector right now, not 118.4 million.”

Economic weakness — new business formations are at a 35-year low — is both a cause and a consequence of alarming cultural changes.

In 1960, 12 percent of 25- to 34-year-olds were never married; today, 49 percent never have been. Although the population was 27 million larger in 2010 than in 2000, there were fewer births in 2010.

The lingering economic anemia is astonishing, given plummeting energy prices.

To a considerable extent, the anemia is an iatrogenic social ailment, induced by government behavior. The business burdens and uncertainties created by the Affordable Care Act are just part of the Obama administration’s regulatory mania (3,659 new regulations finalized in 2013 and another 2,594 proposed, according to Wayne Crews of the Competitive Enterprise Institute).

That the employment picture is not worse may owe much to the end of an iatrogenic policy. The Economist reports that during the recession, unemployment ben-

From the Lawrence Daily Journal-World for Feb. 5, 1915: years “Joseph Hertz, ago age 87, died this IN 1915 morning at his home in Eudora.

Mr. Hertz was the only surviving member of the company which laid out the townsite for Eudora. These plans were started in the spring of 1857.

efits were extended from 26 weeks for most workers to an average of 53 weeks, and 73 weeks in three states. Then in December 2013 Republicans blocked reauthorization of Emergency Unemployment Compensation. Now a study of 1,000 counties shows that employment grew fastest in counties where there were the biggest declines in the duration of unemployment benefits.

Barack Obama’s plan to tax the earnings from parents’ “529” college savings plans lived just long enough to indicate why some progressives perhaps prefer slow rather than rapid economic growth.

Rapid growth reduces the appeal of redistributive policies and the need for the bitter, jostling, divisive politics that advance such policies. The 529s help enable families to achieve self-sufficiency. This excites progressives’ dislike of any private provision that impedes implementation of their dependency agenda.

The progressive project of maximizing the number of people dependent on government is also aided by the acid of insecurity that grows rapidly when the economy does not. Anxious and disappointed people are susceptible to progressives’ blandishments about the political allocation of wealth and opportunity — “free” this and that. By making slow growth normal, iatrogenic government serves the progressive program of defining economic failure down.

Mental illness not just ‘the latest fad’ He had his first major breakdown when he was 26.

A man who had been known for his sunny, outgoing temperament became suddenly sullen, silent and withdrawn. He spoke openly of suicide. It got so bad that a couple took him into their home to ensure he did not hurt himself.

His second breakdown was a few years later. He could not get out of bed.

He lost weight and became emaciated. Again, he talked about killing himself. One friend was alarmed enough to confiscate all his razors.

“I am now the most miserable man living,” the depressed man wrote. “If what I feel were equally distributed to the whole human family, there would not be one cheerful face on earth.”

Luckily for him, Abraham Lincoln did not write those words to Tom Sullivan. Sullivan, a Fox “News” Radio host, hasn’t much patience for claims of mental disability. At least, not to judge from his dismissal last week of a caller who told him she has bipolar disorder.

Bipolar disorder, Sullivan retorted, is “the latest fad. ...

Last time I checked, we all have good days and we all have bad. And I don’t consider that an illness and I don’t

“

And it is staggering that, according to USA Today, as states impose drastic cuts on mental health services, 40 percent of those with severe mental illness receive no treatment.”

consider it a disability.” The affliction, added Sullivan, is “something made up by the mental health business” in order to soak their patients.

If you are tempted to buy into those ignorant natterings, please be advised: Bipolar disorder, once known as manic depression, is one of the oldest diagnoses in psychiatry. It was first described in 1854 by French doctors Jules Baillarger (who dubbed it “la folie a double forme” or “dual-form insanity”) and Jean-Pierre Falret, (who called it “folie

circulaire,” or “circular insanity”). Both described it as an affliction characterized by moods that cycled wildly between mountain highs and oceanic lows. So bipolar disorder is hardly a fad.

But our concern here is not just Sullivan’s dismissal of one woman’s mental illness but, rather, an emerging narrative that seems to question the very idea of mental illness. That was the subtext of Sen. Rand Paul’s claim last month that many people are “gaming” disability programs, though they suffer nothing more incapacitating than anxiety. Then there’s one Neil Munro, “reporter” for a right-wing website, who in 2013 accused doctors of inventing new mental illnesses for profit. He claimed that we have pathologized “stress” and “sadness,” made diseases out of ordinary moods that need no treatment more exotic than good old American “stoicism,” “hard work” and “personal initiative.”

The anti-science KnowNothingism of the political right has seldom seemed more dangerous. In the wake of the Virginia Tech massacre, the Columbine massacre, the Navy Yard massacre, the Binghamton massacre, the Tucson massacre, the Aurora massacre, it is grotesque

to deny the reality of mental illness or stigmatize those who seek help as somehow lacking in stoicism. And it is staggering that, according to USA Today, as states impose drastic cuts on mental health services, 40 percent of those with severe mental illness receive no treatment. So by what logic do these people discourage those who need help from getting it?

Even Lincoln knew he needed treatment — and sought it. Granted, the options available to his doctor — bleeding, quinine, purgatives, black pepper drinks — would not have done much good. But the point is, the future president felt it no reflection on his character to seek help when he needed it.

“If I be in pain,” wrote Lincoln, who would suffer depression — what Munro trivializes as “sadness” — most of his life, “I wish to let you know it and to ask your sympathy and assistance ... ” Yet so modern and enlightened are we, 150 years later, that some of us deny not only sympathy and assistance but even illness itself.

Suck it up, the radio host tells the woman with bipolar disorder.

Now that’s insane.

GRACE BARR, A LAWRENCE HIGH SCHOOL SENIOR, wipes a tear from her eye after she was announced the Boys and Girls Club of Lawrence 2015 Youth of the Year. members from sites at Prairie Park, Quail Run and Langston Hughes elementary schools performed several dance ensembles.

During her speech, Barr discussed the anger and isolation she felt, having a mother battling an addiction to methamphetamine and having to move over a dozen times before settling down in Lawrence.

In the two years she’s spent with the Boys and Girls Club, Barr said her mother has curbed her addiction and that she has found a productive outlet for her once-destructive emotions.

“My life was immediately impacted,” she said.

“It was easy to forget all the bad things. It was like a weight was lifted off my shoulders. Fifteen houses and four states later, I found a home.”

Barr said her plans for the future include pursuing degrees in early childhood and musical education at either Baker or Kansas State universities.

And Ethan White, her mentor at the club, doesn’t doubt she’ll achieve all of her future goals.

“She’s an overcomer, she’s a fighter,” he said.

“I see her hitting the big time. She’s serious about education, she’s serious about music.”

White said the Boys and Girls Club is a fostering environment that encourages personal growth and leadership.

With her future plans, those qualities have certainly rubbed off onto Barr, he said.

“You can tell she’s going to spend the rest of her life serving kids,” he said.

“It’s a privilege to have this opportunity,” she said. “I can’t believe all the support I’ve had.”

The annual Youth of the Year program recognizes local high school club members, all of whom have overcome life challenges and demonstrated a vision for the future, said Nicole Van Velzen, the club’s director of marketing.

“The Boys and Girls Club has three priority outcomes, and we’re on a mission to meet them for all our members,” she said. “They’re academic success, character and citizenship and to have a healthy lifestyle. And all the candidates have really had to speak to all three goals.”

Since November, six Youth of the Year candidates have submitted three essays, three letters of recommendation, their resumes and school transcripts to be considered for the award.

As winner, Barr will head to the state competition in Topeka on March 9, Van Velzen said.

Throughout the ceremony, all six candidates addressed a panel of judges, explaining what the Boys and Girls Club has meant to them.

A 31-year-old Lawrence man charged with two counts of aggravated indecent liberties with a child under the age of 14 and one count of rape of a child under 14 pleaded not guilty to the charges Friday.

The COURTS defendant is alleged to have made two girls watch pornography, exposed himself and touched them sexually between December 2013 and May 2014, according to the affidavit in support of his arrest.

The man was arrested on suspicion of the charges Oct. 3. He was released two weeks later after posting a $60,000 bond. The man used a bond company for his bail, meaning he only paid 10 percent, or $6,000, for his release.

He will next appear in court for a hearing

KANSAS FOOTBALL • SIGNING DAY

First class

Tom Keegan tkeegan@ljworld.com

Who cares about stars?

My 10th Kansas University football signing day included the best quote I have heard at one, and it was spoken Wednesday by first-year head coach David Beaty.

“We don’t care what anybody else thinks,” Beaty said. “We only care what we think.”

Why let somebody assigning stars next to names determine what players you’re going to coach for the next four or five years?

If Clint Bowen cared what anybody else thought about Darrell Stuckey, he wouldn’t have stood on the table and pleaded for the permission to offer him a scholarship. At that point, Emporia State was the next-best football program offering. Wyoming later offered. Utah and Kansas offered Aqib Talib; Tulsa and KU wanted Chris Harris.

All three defensive backs not only played for 12-1 Orange Bowl champions, they played in last month’s Pro Bowl, the NFL’s all-star game.

St. Louis Cardinals ace Joaquin Andujar once said baseball could be summed up in one word, and the same one word that he used also applies to signing day: “Youneverknow.”

No, you don’t. Highlight videos only show the outside of a young athlete. And they only show what his body looks like as a teenager. It’s not until they arrive at school and begin to work at what Beaty accurately called “two jobs,” student and athlete, that recruits start to show how things might work out.

There was no way of knowing that James Holt would hit the weight room so hard and practice daily with such consistent focus that he would turn himself into an outstanding Big 12 defensive end/outside linebacker until he did it.

You find the athletes you think you can develop, push them hard, instruct them relentlessly and see which ones get better, which ones fade away.

Two players, one who has a chance to start immediately, another who has exciting raw gifts and so much to learn, made for interesting stories on signing day.

Dorance Armstrong, a 6-foot-4, 225-pound defensive end from North Shore High in Houston, has the potential to step in right away for Michael Reynods at defensive end. He had offers from California, Michigan State, Texas Tech and several others of that caliber or close to it.

“This is a guy who can probably get to 260 and still run,” Beaty beamed. “We’re really fired up about this guy. He was not an easy get.”

Defensive coordinator Bowen and defensive-line coach Calvin Thibodeaux made the home visit.

“Calvin’s eating all the spaghetti,” Bowen told a

KANSAS UNIVERSITY FOOTBALL COACH DAVID BEATY IS SEEN ON THE BACK OF AN LCD SCREEN as he talks with media members about his first recruiting class on Wednesday at Mrkonic Auditorium.

Beaty ‘excited’ by signees

By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

It did not take long to recognize the genuine excitement that first-year Kansas University football coach David Beaty carried with him into Wednesday’s signingday news conference inside Mrkonic Auditorium at the Anderson Family Football Complex.

Sure, part of his wide-eyed adrenaline was the result of a signing day gone smoothly.

And the combination of sleep depravation and any number of caffeinated beverages might have played a role as well. But there was no disputing that the 17 players who signed their national letters of intent Wednesday morning — which brought the total in Beaty’s first recruiting class to 24 — had the first-

BREAKING DOWN THE CLASS OF 2015 Rivals.com rank: 64 24/7 Sports rank: 72 Total signees: 24 High school players: 17 Junior college players: 7 From Texas: 17 From Kansas 2 Michigan, Georgia, Florida, Illinois, Oklahoma: 1 each year KU coach more fired up than ever about the future of Kansas football.

“When I put a smile on my face today, it’s because I’m truly excited about these guys,” Beaty said early during the question-and-answer portion of Wednesday’s media session. “I mean, we have got some really good football players here.”

Just who those players are and how long it will take

Defensive backs: 7 Offensive linemen: 5 Wide receivers: 4 Defensive linemen: 2 Running backs: 2 Quarterbacks: 2 Linebackers: 1 Tight ends: 1 them to emerge remains to be seen and certainly is not a given. But Beaty, who talked in detail about each athlete in the 2015 class while their highlights rolled on video screens behind him, clearly had his own take on which guys will help the Jayhawks the most quickly.

It’s never too early for college basketball analysts and fans to discuss the NCAA Tournament and Final Four.

Thus, ESPN this week asked eight experts to identify 12 teams they would be “least surprised to reach the Final Four.”

Twenty one teams were named, including the Kansas Jayhawks (19-3, 8-1), selected on 100 percent of the ballots.

“I would not be surprised to see the Jayhawks reach the Final Four because the Jayhawks are starting to come together,” ESPN’s Jeff Goodman wrote. “KU has played an extremely difficult schedule, and Bill Self’s team has only three losses.

There may not be a bona fide star on the roster, but there is more than enough to win four games come March.”

Other teams named on 100 percent of the ballots: Arizona, Gonzaga, Kentucky and Wisconsin.

Teams named on more than 50 percent of ballots: Duke, Virginia, Notre Dame, Villanova, Louisville and North Carolina. Teams named on fewer than 50 percent of the ballots: Iowa State, Utah, Ohio State, Stanford, West Virginia. Teams named on one ballot: Georgetown, Indiana, Oklahoma, SMU and Wichita State.

The panel consisted of: Jay Bilas, Dan Dakich, Sean Farnham, Fran Fraschilla, John Gasaway, Goodman, Seth Greenberg and Joe Lunardi. To read the story at ESPN Insider go to http:// ljw.bz/1xm6giO. l

UK again?: Self spoke about a possible KU-Kentucky rematch. UK drilled KU, 72-40, on Nov. 18 in Indianapolis.

“We didn’t play smart.

A lot of that’s on me,” Self said Tuesday on (Andy) “Katz’s Korner” on ESPN. “We didn’t want to shy away from their size. We probably made too big a point to try to drive to shoot as opposed to drive to pass. I think that’s something you have to do.

“With any great team that protects the rim so well, it’s great to challenge and you can’t back away from that, but you can challenge by being a passer and not just a shooter or a scorer. We didn’t do that at all the first time. Hopefully we’d be better at that. Even with that being said, if they play that day, you could play very well but still they’d be very difficult to beat.” l

KU women spurt past TTU

By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

In a game as rough and tough as Kansas University’s 71-67 victory over Texas Tech on Wednesday night at Allen Fieldhouse, one run, no matter how big or small, can wind up being the difference.

That turned out to be true in this one, as the Jayhawks (13-10 overall, 4-6 Big 12) Please see KEEGAN, page 3B used a 16-0 spurt midway

through the second half to turn a 53-46 deficit at the 10:32 to mark into a 62-53 lead 61⁄2 minutes later. That stretch proved to be just enough for the Jayhawks to hang on, as Texas Tech closed the game with a surge much the way the Jayhawks did in Lubbock, Texas.

The difference between that game and Wednesday’s meeting, however, was that the road team did not prevail this time around.

“I thought the game was very similar to that one,” Texas Tech coach Candace Whitaker said.

During that Kansas run that proved to be the difference, Whitaker’s club went ice-cold from the floor.

Tech (13-9, 3-7) missed nine straight shots during the Richard Gwin/Journal-World Photo dismal stretch and did not score its 54th point until the KANSAS UNIVERSITY FORWARD CHELSEA 3:45 mark of the game, and GARDNER (15) PULLS UP FOR A SHOT against Texas Tech’s Dayo Olabode in the Jayhawks’ Please see KU WOMEN, page 3B 71-67 victory Wednesday at Allen Fieldhouse.

Thunder 102, Pelicans 91 New Orleans — Russell Westbrook tied a career high with 45 points, and Oklahoma City beat New Orleans.

With Kevin Durant sitting out for the fourth time in the past five games, Westbrook became the main offense for the Thunder (25-24). They finished on a 13-0 run to put New Orleans (26-23) away.

Oklahoma City handled much of its scoring from inside the paint, where it outscored the Pelicans by 20 points. The Thunder finished with 27 fastbreak points and shot 52.9 percent.

Timberwolves 102, Heat 101 Minneapolis — Kevin Martin scored 30 points, and Minnesota overcame another monster game from Hassan Whiteside.

Whiteside scored a careerhigh 24 points, grabbed 20 rebounds and set a Heat record by making his first 11 shots.

Luol Deng added 18 points, but Norris Cole missed an open three-pointer in the closing moments, allowing the Wolves to escape.

Thaddeus Young had 16 points and five steals, and Ricky Rubio added eight points and nine assists in his first home game since Nov. 1.

Grizzlies 100, Jazz 90 Salt Lake City — Zach Randolph had 18 points and 11 rebounds to lead Memphis.

Maker may reclassify: Thon Maker, a 7-foot center from Orangeville Prep in Ontario who is the No. 1-ranked player in the recruiting Class of 2016 by Rivals.com, will decide next week whether he’ll be reclassifying to the Class of 2015, Zagsblog. com reports.

Maker’s guardian, Ed Smith, said Maker finished his classes a week ago.

Smith has said Maker will visit KU and Kentucky if he reclassifies and possibly other schools as well.

Smith told Zagsblog he will ask NCAA officials if Maker is a likely candidate to make it through the NCAA clearinghouse.

If he’s deemed a likely nonqualifier, he’d likely play in China or Europe a year before the NBA Draft, Smith told Zagsblog. l

Newman decides on five: Malik Newman, a 6-3 senior shooting guard from Callaway High in Jackson, Mississippi, who is ranked No. 3 in the Class of 2015 by Rivals. com, tells ESPN’s Reggie Rankin he will visit KU, Kentucky, North Carolina State, LSU and Ohio State. It’s expected he will wait until April to commit to a school.

that came on a free throw. The Red Raiders finished the game by hitting just five of their final 17 shots, and KU coach Bonnie Henrickson said she preached defense, not offense, to her team during the timeout that followed Texas Tech taking its seven-point lead.

“They made a run, then we made a run, but it starts with the defensive intensity,” Henrickson said.

Senior forward Chelsea Gardner led KU with 19 points and eight rebounds. She scored nine of those during KU’s 16-0 run and even helped assist a Natalie Knight three-pointer by shielding Knight’s defender with her back.

However, had it not been for a play made by one of KU’s unlikely heroes, the run might never have come. Trailing 5346 and watching another trip on the offensive end nearly go by the wayside, senior forward Bunny Williams ripped down an offensive rebound and kicked it out to Chayla Cheadle, who drained a three-pointer to get the run started.

Henrickson said those were the kinds of plays that never wind up in the newspaper, but both Gardner and senior Asia Boyd (10 points, seven rebounds) said plays like that never go unnoticed in the KU locker room.

“They make it a priority to point out those kinds of plays a lot,” Boyd said. “So we definitely noticed.”

Added Gardner: “I think it was a big momentum play, too. Offensive kick-out. That was good.”

Other than one block and a nine in her minutesplayed column, the offensive rebound and assist were the only stats Williams recorded all night.

For a team that’s so used to relying on Gardner to be its everything inside, the unexpected contribution turned out to be enormous.

“They’ve got one of

the best guards in the league (Amber Battle, three points), and we’ve got one of the best bigs in the league (Gardner),” Henrickson said. “But often times it’s the guys around them that are the difference-makers.”

That certainly was the case Wednesday night, as four other Jayhawks joined Gardner in double figures to help KU win its third Big 12 game in its past four outings after opening conference play with five straight losses.

Henrickson said a renewed commitment to defense not only sparked Wednesday’s victory, but also the team’s turnaround, which has emphasized three major areas — how hard they compete, how hard they compete when things are bad and how hard they compete on the defensive end.

“When we asked ourselves those questions three weeks ago, we didn’t like the answer,” Henrickson said. “That answer has changed now.”

KU will host Oklahoma State at 7 p.m. Saturday at Allen Fieldhouse.

wide receivers Chase Harrell and Steven Sims and all of the program’s new cornerbacks earned special praise.

But there was no escaping that Beaty came away from a wild and crazy six weeks on the recruiting trail feeling pretty good about all of the players he and his coaching staff were able to corral.

Some they got because the player had limited offers. Others they had to fight off higher-profile schools to keep. And still others were diamonds in the rough, whom the KU coaches stumbled upon by chance and went after with intensity.

Regardless of what led them to their seat at the table with a letter of intent to Kansas staring up at them, Beaty said the class had one important thing in common.

“Every one of these kids, before I walked out of their living room, I made sure they wanted to be here as bad as I want to be here,” he said.

Never was the desire to become Jayhawks by the athletes in the current class more clear than early Wednesday morning, when all 17 guys who made their commitments official had their letters signed, sealed and delivered to the KU football offices within an hour of the official starting time of 7 a.m. Such a pace is unprecedented at Kansas, as the coaches in the past typically waited until at least noon and sometimes longer to receive the final letters.

think technology (texting a photo of the letter of intent) has a lot to do with it. That old fax machine, the old paper feed, that would cause a lot of problems on a day like today. We were done (and) looking at each other by 7:45. That’s not normal.”

Twelve hours later, Beaty and his coaching staff were at Abe & Jake’s for a fan-friendly signingday party. The snow and cold weather took a toll on the head count, but those KU fans who did show up were greeted by a coaching staff that displayed genuine camaraderie and great pride about the class they were able to cobble together.

No matter how much each assistant coach gushed about his excitement over this player or that, each one, like Beaty,

made sure to emphasize that, while getting a class you can be proud of is great, it means next to nothing if you don’t follow it up with good, oldfashioned development.

The potential to develop Wednesday’s signees is one thing the coaching staff likes about KU’s 2015 class. And, newcomers or not, they’re all going to get the chance to prove they can play.

“It’s no longer about what anybody says. It’s about what you do,” Beaty said. “We’re gonna go by who’s the best. And that’s easy to see. Everybody on our football team is gonna have an opportunity.

Everybody. And they’re only as good as their next day, their next practice, their next rep, and that’s how we’re gonna get this deal done.”

Obviously, he liked it, and so did the defensive coaches.

“This guy, for a guy who hasn’t played the position, he’s got instincts,” Beaty said of Feaster, listed at 6-3, 195 pounds.

“He’ll come downhill, and he will knock the fire out of you.”

College football is all about development, especially at a school such as Kansas.

“I’m excited about what the future looks like with Denzel Feaster,” Beaty said. “He was here last weekend, and the thing that I loved about him is when we offered him the scholarship, he shed a tear. He wants to be here.”

So does Beaty. How refreshing.

the 20 biggest games in February and early March.

He includes KU at West Virginia on Feb. 16, KU at Kansas State on Feb. 23 and KU at Oklahoma on March 7.

Of the West Virginia game, he wrote: “The Jayhawks travel to the unfriendly confines of Morgantown and will face a Bob Huggins team that keeps coming on the defensive end. West Virginia is only two back from KU in the loss column.”

Of the KSU game, he wrote: “It’s another huge in-state rivalry game. KState had a dismal nonconference slate, but a win over the Jayhawks could give Bruce Weber’s team some hope of sneaking into the NCAA tourney.”

And of the OU game, he wrote: “It’s still too early to say what, if anything, this one means. But depending on what happens over the next month or so, it could have a major bearing on whether the Jayhawks continue ‘The Streak’ (10 consecutive Big 12 regular-season titles).”

AREA SIGNING DAY

Free State’s Frantz thrilled to join KSU

By Bobby Nightengale bnightengale@ljworld.com

Several hours after faxing in his letter of intent to play college football at Kansas State, at his signing ceremony Wednesday in the Free State High library, FSHS senior Scott Frantz choked up while thanking everyone who has helped him along the way.

Frantz, a 6-foot-5, 275-pound left tackle, chose the Wildcats because of their close location, so his parents could watch him play, and their winning tradition. Kansas State posted on Twitter that it received his paperwork at 8:20 a.m.

Wednesday.

“This means a lot,” Frantz said. “It’s just a surreal moment. I put a lot into this game. Just to know that I’ve made it this far — made it to the Big 12 — it’s just an awesome feeling.”

Surrounded by team-

mates, coaches and classmates at the ceremony, Frantz specifically thanked his parents, Free State coaches, Fred Roll and Keith Loneker Sr. This year, Frantz picked up first-team All-Sunflower League honors for the second straight season, while also earning a selection to the All-Simone team and to the Shrine Bowl. He’s ranked as a three-star prospect by rivals.com and the 48th-best offensive tackle in the nation.

Frantz expects to redshirt next fall before competing for a starting position in 2016, but he was happy to for the day he has been waiting for since he committed to K-State in June finally to arrive.

“It was really exciting,” Frantz said of signing day. “I’m just glad to know it’s all over. It was a long, stressful recruiting process. But it’s over now, so it’s good.”

FREE STATE HIGH FOOTBALL COACH BOB LISHER, STANDING CENTER, introduces senior football team members before they sign letters of intent to play at the collegiate level.

From left are Carson Bowen, Baker University; Scott Frantz, Kansas State; and Michael Georgie, Fort Scott Community College.

Along with Frantz, Free State seniors Carson Bowen and Michael Georgie also signed with colleges Wednesday.

Bowen, a second-team all-league pick at linebacker, will play at Baker

University. Georgie, a defensive lineman, signed with Fort Scott Community College.

Area signings Mill Valley senior offensive lineman Evan Ap-

plegate will join Frantz at Kansas State.

The 6-foot-6, 270-pound Applegate, a two-year first-team All-Kaw Valley League selection, helped the Jaguars average 407 yards per game last season.

The Wildcats received Applegate’s paperwork at 7:45 a.m. Wednesday, and he was thrilled he could celebrate during his ceremony at his high school.

“It’s really a reward,” Applegate told the Shawnee Dispatch. “After putting in all of the work and all the effort for four years, it’s nice to hang out with your family and talk and mingle with people. I have a lot of friends that are signing today, too, so it’s a lot of fun.”

Baldwin High’s Christian Gaylord signed with Nebraska, despite a coaching change at the end of November.

After the Cornhuskers fired former coach Bo Pelini, Gaylord was immedi-

ately recruited by numerous high-profile schools.

However, he has enjoyed his interactions with new Nebraska coach Mike Riley and didn’t waver on his original commitment.

Gaylord, a 6-foot-6, 275-pound lineman, was a four-year starter for the Bulldogs and opened holes for 2,890 yards on the ground this season.

Eudora High senior offensive guard Justus Merz signed with the University of North Dakota on Wednesday.

The 6-foot-6, 270-pound Merz committed to UND in November after the school began recruiting him last summer.

Other expected area football signees: Tyler Davidson, Baldwin (Fort Scott CC); Carl Hecht, Tonganoxie (Benedictine); Jonathan Ortiz, Eudora (Northwest Missouri St.); and Chris Rivers, Eudora (Fort Scott CC).

Burghart wins for seniors, but Lions fall

By Bobby Nightengale bnightengale@ljworld.com

When Lawrence High senior wrestler Cy Burghart stepped onto the mat Wednesday night, he wasn’t just competing for himself.

Burghart was the only senior who wasn’t sidelined for Senior Night, a dual against Baldwin at LHS. With fellow seniors Malik Davis, Jhon Jacob and Tristan Star watching, Burghart picked up a pin 2:18 into his match at 152 pounds. Burghart was one of the four Lions to win matches in a 53-19 loss to the Bulldogs.

“On Senior Night, you always want your seniors to win,” LHS coach Pat Naughton said. “Him out there doing it for the rest of the seniors, I think, was pretty special. Cy is that type of way. He always puts everybody else ahead of himself, and that’s the type of kid he is.”

Richard Gwin/Journal-World Photo

LAWRENCE HIGH FRESHMAN JAY CHEATHAM, FRONT, TRIES TO ESCAPE Baldwin’s Ben Morgenstern in the 126-pound class Wednesday night at LHS. Burghart led 5-0 after the first period, as he earned points on a few takedowns, but just couldn’t find the right angle for a pin. However, just 18 seconds into the second period, he finally made his move for the win.

“That was a good way

to end it — a good way to end my career here (at home),” Burghart said. “In front of my friends and stuff, it was awesome.”

The Lions also received wins from sophomore Cade Burghart at 132 pounds, sophomore Santino Gee at 170 and junior Alan Clothier at 182.

Clothier faced Baldwin junior Joel Katzer, the fifth-ranked wrestler at 170 pounds in Class 4A. After a scoreless first period, Clothier controlled the rest of the match with his strength and quickness.

“He was really good at neutralizes,” Clothier said of Katzer. “He was re-

ally strong. That’s good.

I need to wrestle some strong kids because most kids at 182 are big. They cut (weight) from 195.”

Clothier, who owns a 34-0 record this year, won by a 12-0 majority decision, but said he still has plenty to work on, especially his shots and better protection of his legs. “(Katzer) stepped up and challenged Alan, pretty much,” Naughton said. “(Katzer) wrestles a different style, which is nice for Alan to see. He’s not always seeing the same guys at 182. He’s getting a nice, wide variety.”

At 160 pounds, LHS sophomore Tucker Wilson went back and forth against Baldwin’s Owen Tuckfield before falling in a 5-4 decision.

Baldwin, the secondranked team in Class 4A, sat five of its regular starters, but had several wrestlers move up in weight and fight to a victory. Sophomore Thomas

Lisher jumped up to 145 pounds and picked up a pin, senior Joel Hartford won by pin at 195 pounds and senior Wyatt Parmley pulled out a 6-2 decision at heavyweight.

“There were some great matches, and that’s what I’m really looking for, win or lose,” BHS coach Kit Harris said. “Luckily, we got a lot of depth. We’ve got backups at every weight. That really helps for duals, for sure.”

After the Lions’ final dual of the season, they are focused on their next three tournaments this month: the Sunflower League meet, regionals and state.

“I’m pretty excited,” Burghart said. “This will be a fun time. I’m ready to go. This week off will be good for us to get better and get ready for the three tournaments coming up.”

The Lions will return to the mat on Feb. 14 for the Sunflower League meet, which begins at 9 a.m. in Leavenworth.

COLLEGE BASKETBALL ROUNDUP

OSU outlasts Texas in OT ————

K-State tumbles to Tech; Foster suspended No. 18 VCU 72, George Mason 60 Fairfax, Va. — Melvin Johnson scored 17 points to lead VCU.

The Associated Press

Big 12 Men Oklahoma St. 65, No. 25 Texas 63, OT Austin, Texas — Phil Forte made two free throws with 2.1 seconds left in overtime, sending Oklahoma State past Texas on Wednesday night, the Longhorns’ fourth loss in a row.

Le’Bryan Nash scored 17 points for the Cowboys (15-7, 5-5 Big 12), who led most of the game, only to see Texas rally in the final minute of regulation to tie.

Isaiah Taylor scored 18 points for Texas (14-8, 3-6). He had the final six points in regulation.

Forte, an 85-percent free-throw shooter on the season, had a big miss late in regulation, but calmly made his last shots for the win.

Texas’ Connor Lammert tied it at 63 when he made one of two with 11.6 seconds left.

Texas had a final chance to win, but Taylor’s long, running threepointer at the buzzer bounced off the side of the rim.
