STORIES OF HOPE
A BLITZ AGAINST CANCER

Baker football coach inspires team with strength off the field By Matt Tait

There’s a stigma attached to football coaches that says tough guys aren’t supposed to cry. Baker University football coach Mike Grossner, who has completed his 12th season leading the Wildcats, knows that unwritten rule well, but was not about to sweat it when he was diagnosed with stage 4 head and
neck cancer in August 2014. A few weeks after discovering a lump on his neck that he irritated every time he shaved — a nurse at Baker dubbed his lump “The Thing” — the BU football coach shared with his team the hell he was about to embark upon. “It was pretty emotional,”
recalls Grossner, 50, of the preseason meeting. “I just told them, ‘Here’s what’s going on, I’m not planning on missing any time and this is the last we’re going to talk about it.’” Just like that, another season of Baker football was underway. Please see COACH, page 2A

Something is broken at Lawrence City Hall: the elevators. The 36-year-old, on-again, offagain elevators inside City Hall are due for rehabilitation, according to a city memo from facility division manager Jason Stowe. On Tuesday, city commissioners will be asked to approve their replacement, which comes with a price tag of up to $250,000. “The reality is that these elevators are six years past their normal life expectancy and need rehabilitated,” Stowe’s memo states. The two elevators were installed when the building was constructed in 1980. There have been intermittent outages, and they were recently out of service for two CITY weeks. When their COMMISSION parts were replaced, they operated for one full day before going down again. The main concern, Stowe wrote, is City Hall employees and others getting trapped. One elevator remains out of service and is irreparable, and they can’t wait until 2017 to be fixed, the memo states. The city is asking that it be allowed to request proposals from firms to design, engineer and construct the elevators. It’s also seeking updates to the elevator’s security cameras and interior. Funding for the work would come from the capital equipment reserve fund. The issue is on the commission’s consent agenda, so Please see ELEVATORS, page 2A
KU initiative aims to get humanities grads out of the ‘ivory tower’ By Sara Shepherd Twitter: @saramarieshep
Meaghan Kelly was giving pitches only an academic could love. She was looking for a job outside academia. But the Kansas University graduate student
was speaking the language of a world traditionally focused on shaping scholars and feeding them directly into other institutions of higher education as professors: the humanities. “During networking events with potential employers or contacts, I used to have a terrible tendency of giving

Look at any graph, and it will show that available humanities professor jobs are dwindling, Hall Center Director Victor Bailey said. Plus, there are humanities graduate students who don’t endeavor to become professors anyway. “Supply and demand simply are not in equilibrium,” Bailey said. “Faculty are beginning to recognize that as many as 50 percent or more of the students they are teaching will not end up in the academy.” Instead many may end up — and excel — in careers Bailey with libraries, archives, museums, cultural institutions, public broadcasting or nonprofit organizations. The Kansas City metropolitan area has proven to be a well for such organizations with which the Hall Center is collaborating, along with others from Topeka and Lawrence. Leaders who have participated in panels or other Applied Humanities events at KU include Julián Zugazagoitia, director of the Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art; Matthew Naylor, president and CEO of the National World War I Museum and Memorial; and Julie Mulvihill, executive director of the Kansas Humanities Council. KU’s Applied Humanities Initiative got a soft start in the 2013-2014 academic year, when Henry Fortunato — who has a master’s degree in American history and at the time was director of public affairs for the Kansas City (Mo.) Public Library — was the Hall Center’s Simons Fellow in Public Humanities. The annual Simons fellowship is enabled by a gift from the Simons family of Lawrence, which owns the Journal-World. Panel discussions with professionals in spring 2014 attracted some 50 students per session, Fortunato said. The following spring, 2015, the Hall Center hosted its first Applied Humanities Boot Camp, a weeklong immersion in practical skills such as budgeting, marketing, media relations, fundraising and exhibit development. Open to KU humanities graduate students, who must apply for selection, the camp had 14 participants its first year with 15 signed up to participate this year, in May, Fortunato said. He said nine graduate students will participate in Applied Humanities paid internships this summer, up from six last summer. Fortunato and Bailey said the program so far has proved to be a two-way street. Humanities graduate students practice skills they need to work in the “public square” and meet potential employers, and potential employers gain access to a stream of soonto-be job candidates. A $75,000 grant from the Hall Family
Foundation enabled the first two years of the initiative, Bailey said. In recent weeks, the Hall Center secured another $100,000 from the foundation to continue the program another two years, through June 2018, he said. Fortunato is staying on as a visiting fellow to help lead the program, along with Bailey and Hall Center Associate Director Sally Utech. lll
Kelly started graduate school with hopes of becoming a college professor. “Definitely the job market is not encouraging,” she said, “especially hearing from Ph.D. students who were out on the job market and being told they were one of 400 applications for an assistant professor job.” After a taste of nonprofit work, she started to have a change of heart about becoming a professor. Last year, for extra money, she started working at a KU School of Education-based nonprofit rewriting high school level standardized assessment test questions for students with cognitive disabilities. “My adaptations were popping up on the screens of thousands of students everywhere, and that felt really good,” she said. “I really loved researching for my actual degree, but it started to feel a little distanced from the impacts that I wanted to have in the community.” Kelly graduated in December with a master’s degree in English — well, technically, a master’s degree in literary theory with a minor in peace and conflict studies. “Right off the bat, that doesn’t read very well on a resume,” she said. However she got a job right away, as corporate grants and social media manager at the Community Services League in Independence, Mo. Kelly started in January, just weeks after defending her thesis. By then Kelly had learned to translate her humanities skills to the world beyond academia. In addition to her work at the School of Education, she credits the 2015 Applied Humanities Boot Camp and an Applied Humanities internship with the Nelson-Atkins last summer. “I think that the humanities, and particularly graduate-level humanities, get a bad rap for being too theoretical — you have that whole ivory tower cliche,” she said. Humanities scholars in academia actively research and write about real-world issues, Kelly said. Though they can use help breaking out of academia, she said those who go on to work in outside sectors aren’t all that different. “The end goal is to change and make a difference in what is going on,” she said.
Sure, this season was different. Not just because of the 13 starters lost to injury or the 7-0 start that fell short of being special because of those injuries — but because their coach was fighting for his life and his battle touched the program every day. “If I didn’t have football and I actually had time to worry, I’m not sure what it would’ve been like,” Grossner says. Game prep and game days were pretty normal. It was the time around them when things were different. For eight weeks, Meatloaf Monday also was chemotherapy day for Grossner, who dined on meatloaf, mashed potatoes, veggies, Boston cream pie and chocolate shakes. It didn’t always taste as good as it sounded. The radiation and chemotherapy treatments zapped Grossner’s taste buds and turned even the richest flavors into bland helpings. “Everything was salt water,” Grossner says of the nutrition plan that took him from 225 pounds to 178. “It was a heck of a diet, but I don’t wish it upon anybody.” As he dealt with bigger problems than blitzing linebackers, Grossner found comfort in the game he loved. He never considered taking a break and said support from his team, colleagues and the Baldwin City community kept him going. In all, Grossner missed just two days of football.

DURING TREATMENT FOR SQUAMOUS CELL CARCINOMA, a common form of skin cancer, Mike Grossner ate a meatloaf dinner on chemo days at Lawrence Memorial Hospital. he always “let it go” — featured meetings where he used hand signals or assistant coaches to deliver his messages. “I’ve got a great staff,” he says. “I wasn’t worried about this program taking a dip for one second.” Grossner uttered similar sentiments about the staff at Lawrence Memorial Hospital. “When you hear stage 4, you start thinking, ‘Where am I headed, am I out of town?’” Grossner remembers. “But I’m telling you, those people who took care of me are the best.” While football served as Grossner’s greatest distraction, stress on the gridiron never entered the equation. Fighting cancer helped Grossner learn to fully appreciate the little things — the smell of the locker room, interactions with his players, the joy of victory, lessons learned in defeat. With or without him, he knew Baker football was in good hands. During one 2014 game at Evangel University in Springfield, Mo., on a night when nothing seemed to go right, Grossner drew on his battle with cancer and
encouraged his guys to dig a little deeper. It was his version of the old “win one for the Gipper” speech. And it paid off. “Later that season, some of the kids came up to me and said, ‘Hey, we did think about you out there on the field,’” Grossner recalls. “That was incredible. You just don’t know if what you say has that much of an impact.” Today, more than a year after his diagnosis and surgery, Grossner is better than ever. With his wife, Karen, and children, Emma, 19, Jake, 14, and Ryker, 10, hugging him every step of the way, Grossner’s taste buds are starting to come back, he’s a fit, strong and healthy 202 pounds, and his Wildcats ended their 2015 season with an 11-2 record. Asked how much longer he wanted to coach, Grossner says simply: “Oh, forever.” “Football trains you in the area of mental toughness,” he adds. “And I really had to hone in on that to get through this. There was a reason I got cancer. It opened my eyes. I think we’re put on the Earth to serve, and I’ve still got some people to influence.”
Highway 10 and Interstate 70, it’s been included in planning studies, the most recent of which called for traditional neighborhood development in the area. The amendment would allow property owners to build an office and research site, instead of keeping the 13.5 acres for residential and office uses, as planned. The Lawrence-Douglas County Planning Commission denied the request in 2014 but voted in favor of a revised and scaled-down request last month. During both discussions, some planning commissioners expressed
concern about the development not providing an aesthetic gateway to west Lawrence. Planning staff said in their report that the change could attract other types of industrial uses to the area in the future, which could “be considered an advancement of the interests of the citizens of Lawrence and Douglas County if the potential is realized.” To move forward, the request must also gain approval from Douglas County commissioners.

How firefighters fought the biggest Kansas blaze in a century By Oliver Morrison The Wichita Eagle
Wichita — On March 22, Bruce Stansberry was welding a piece of pipe just outside Freedom, Okla. He was on a small hill, facing south, when his wife, Dixie, called. She had been carefully folding egg whites into flour for an angel food cake, so it wasn’t until the local fire department called that she looked up through her kitchen window and saw the wall of flames. She sounded hysterical, he said, and when he saw the flames he knew she was right. “This isn’t good,” he said he told her. “This is a bad situation.” There was nothing but dry grass and
canyons north of their house, he thought. And inside those canyons, like a long line of giant matchsticks winding its way toward Kansas, were scattered thickets of red cedar trees, which, when ignited, firefighters and ranchers say, explode. The fire had already consumed a couple of football fields of pasture land into flames 15 feet high, Stansberry said. Seventy-nine-yearold Stansberry grabbed a shovel and a bucket and drove his motorized cart to Anderson Creek, where he started throwing water on the reeds under the highway bridge. He was the first of hundreds of people to play the role of firefighter in this

FLAMES AND SMOKE LIGHT UP THE NIGHT SKY west of Freedom, Okla., April 5. The range fire driven by 50 mph winds was threatening to cross over into Kansas similar to the Anderson Creek fire two weeks ago. blaze. But he, unlike many of the other better trained firefighters over the next few days, had Mother Nature on his side: Strong
winds were blowing the fire away from his house. Those winds and that fire would, over the next couple of days, trap
firefighters, kill hundreds of cattle, rip apart fences, knock over power lines, burn up tractors, eviscerate bridges, reduce more than 40 buildings to rubble, force the evacuation of entire towns and cause millions of dollars in damage. Kirk Trekell, the fire chief in Alva, Okla., a town about 25 miles east of Stansberry’s home, said he’s always a little anxious with weather like that on March 23. The humidity was about 10 percent, so the grass and trees were dry and brittle. The winds were blowing steadily between 30 and 40 mph, with gusts near 60. The Wichita Eagle reports that before setting out for the fire, around 5:30 p.m., Trekell checked the

weather predictions on OK-Fire, a local fire website. What caught his eye was the prediction for the next day: Instead of coming from the south, the winds were going to shift and start pushing from the west. That meant that, however far north the fire reached on Tuesday, it would turn into an equally furious but longer wall of flames moving eastward on Wednesday. So however dangerous the fire might be, it could be even more dangerous the next day. While the firefighters kept the fire off of Highway 64, the rest of them had trouble even catching up with the fire. It’s not just the wind, but in

are not going to wait for poverty to be fixed before we start taking aggressive steps to improve things and to help our residents make better health choices,” he said. Another focus is to persuade uninsured residents to take advantage of health care and education programs provided by safety net medical clinics rather
than delaying health care until they need an emergency room. That can be difficult because their clients face obstacles such as lack of transportation and money, said Catherine Rice, spokeswoman for the Saint Vincent and Duchesne health care clinics in Wyandotte County and Leavenworth. “Our patient base,
oftentimes their health is not a priority,” Rice said. “They’re worried about keeping the lights on, putting food on the table, everyday things that others take for granted. We want to look at the whole person and to educate them that in order to keep the lights on and take care of the kids, you have to take care of yourself.”
Lawrence, graduated from Lawrence High School and then from Kansas University before beginning her career as a teacher two years ago. Though that may seem like a straight and narrow path, it wasn’t without its challenges. Harrell-Miller had her son, Jadin, while she was still in high school. “Once you have a kid, your priorities change, things get put on the back burner,” she said. “So it was kind of to regain my own self-confidence, to regain that high school fit person that I once was.” Since a young age, Harrell-Miller has been an athlete, and for years was a member of a competitive cheerleading and power-tumbling team. But over the past several years, HarrellMiller said she’d gotten out of shape. After marrying her partner, Jordan Miller, over the summer, she said she really wanted to get healthier for
herself and her family. “It wasn’t about losing weight; it was about getting strong both mentally and physically, and becoming fit,” Harrell-Miller said. At the same time, it went beyond fitness, Harrell-Miller said. Meeting her goal of becoming a teacher while raising her son was another reason she wanted to do the show. She said she wanted to show an alternative to those in a similar situation. “To be on national TV and be able to tell my story of having a kid when I was young, but making the right choices afterwards,” she said. “…I think that sometimes the stereotypical teen mom you see on TV, or whatever the case may be, is always a negative outlook.” To participate in the show, Harrell-Miller got a long-term substitute for her classroom while she spent three months in LA.
Since returning to Lawrence in November, Harrell-Miller said she’s kept up her exercise routine and better eating habits that she learned from the show’s trainer. The show premieres at 7 p.m. Thursday on NBC. Ahead of the premiere, there will be a two-hour special preview at 8 p.m. Wednesday. The official trailer for the show is available online at NBC. com/strong. Harrell-Miller isn’t allowed to say — her family doesn’t even know — how she fares in the competition. As far as her plans for the preview, Harrell-Miller said she is having a watch party on Wednesday at Wayne & Larry’s Sports Bar & Grill, 933 Iowa St. “It’s a watch party, anybody and everybody can come,” she said.

Monday, April 11, 2016 of a fire Wednesday afternoon. When the man didn’t respond, Wesley drove over, irate, but quickly realized that their communication system had failed. At the peak of the fire’s destruction, as it consumed tens of thousands of acres per hour, it had also destroyed power to the county’s two emergency radio transmitters. A yeoman’s effort would restore diminished service, three hours later. But even then there were tens of fire trucks with only one radio channel to broadcast on. Everyone had to wait for a rare moment of radio silence to communicate, and even this didn’t work at some of the low spots in ravines. The wind was slowly shifting farther east, and the crews on the ground, some of whom had now been fighting fire for three full days, had to continually move to new positions, as the fire crawled up ravines, blew across fields and rolled over patches of dry cedars that burst into flames. By Wednesday afternoon Wesley and the other firefighters agreed that this fire could not be stopped no matter how many firefighters they had or what equipment they were using. All they could do now was try to protect buildings and whole towns as the fire swept by. McNamar had already convinced Wesley that they needed to evacuate Sun City. It didn’t take much convincing for the fewer than 50 residents who could already see a smoke cloud that had begun to block out the sun, McNamar said. As the fire shifted east, McNamar called an emergency meeting with the mayor of Medicine Lodge, the largest city in Barber County, to recommend that its 2,000 residents voluntarily evacuate as well. But 90 percent of the town’s residents stayed, he said. Wesley said he let many of his firefighters go off to protect the structures of their families and childhood friends. At that point, Wesley and others had been fighting fires for three days straight. Their feet and eyes ached. They began to stutter and confuse words, but kept working. “It’s adrenaline,” Wesley said. “You know the people out there. You’re fighting for their houses, their livelihood.” lll
When Bob Larson and his daughter, Charyl Zier, heard that the fire was heading toward Larson’s ranch, just off Highway 160, they packed up their dogs and their vehicles and drove to a wheat field, where they hoped the lush, green crop would keep them safe. “You would see these masses of fire coming through the air, and everything would just light up and burn,” said Zier, who took a picture and titled it
| 5A
on Facebook, “This must be what hell feels like.” Larson, 85, whose wife had passed away less than two years before, had built nearly every part of that house by hand with his wife. Zier’s husband and brother were with several fire trucks at the house trying to keep it safe, but through all the smoke she couldn’t see if they were safe. Many firefighters positioned themselves between the town of Medicine Lodge and the fire, trying to beat it back. The fire had been largely contained southwest of town, in large part by the Medicine Lodge River, although burning embers managed to jump the river to a cemetery, the one vulnerable spot to the north. Firefighters stopped it from spreading. Although the weather Wednesday night and into Thursday morning was still windy and dry, firefighters received one break: The winds eventually shifted, so that instead of blowing east, the fire started blowing back south where it had come from. Although it left a lot of vulnerable land to the south, it also gave them a chance to secure a perimeter, just as a massive influx of additional firefighting resources arrived late Wednesday. Help continued to arrive for three more days. By Thursday morning fire trucks from across the state lined up for a block outside the command center, ready to be assigned to teams that had been formed overnight to strategically target fire spots. Members of a second incident management team from the state helped relieve some of the Forest Service team who, like many firefighters, had barely slept. Although some of the Barber County firefighters were about to start their fourth straight day without sleep, many had now gotten at least a few hours’ sleep even if it was on a cot at the middle school. And thanks to the Red Cross, the First Christian Church and donations from countless townspeople, the hundreds of firefighters and support personnel had a hot dinner and a sack lunch to take with them on their next shift. In all, the fire burned at least 11 houses and dozens more barns, sheds and outbuildings. By Thursday afternoon the voluntary evacuations had been lifted, and the worst injuries reported across more than 400,000 acres were smoke inhalation and irritated eyes. It was, everyone said, miraculous. The state’s helicopters were finally cleared to start dumping water on hot spots that the fire crews couldn’t reach on March 26. And by Sunday, March 27, many townspeople said that it was an Easter miracle that 3 inches of snow had fallen the night before.

Woman can’t stop sister from dating ex-husband Dear Annie: My exhusband, the father of my kids, decided to date my younger sister, who is in the early stages of recovery from heroin addiction. When she wants to see her four children, she has to have a supervisor present for visitation. My mother and stepfather support this relationship and think it will be good for her. My older sister and I do not approve. Because of this, my mother decided to disown me and my sister. We have not spoken for six months. What I don’t understand is that my mother mentioned this whole dating thing about four years ago. She asked whether I would be OK with them seeing each other and I strongly replied that I would NOT, and that it was unethical for the two of them

Burns takes on a baseball trailblazer PBS presents “Jackie Robinson” (8 p.m., today and Tuesday, TV-PG, check local listings), a four-hour, two-part documentary by Ken Burns. While many of Burns’ most notable films, like “The Civil War,” have covered broad subjects, “Robinson” offers an expanded study of a single individual to explore larger historical themes. Robinson is well known as the man who broke baseball’s color barrier and who comported himself with stoicism in the face of racist abuse. More than any other ballplayer, Robinson became a national legend, lauded by presidents past and present. The documentary reminds us that before he became a kind of official ambassador, Robinson was not one to turn the other cheek. Serving as an officer during World War II, he was arrested for not relocating to the back of a bus. This incident occurred a full 10 years before Rosa Parks’ famous protests. Made with the full participation of his family and surviving widow, Rachel, “Robinson” explores the difficulty of reconciling the man and the legend. Robinson had to deal with the backward attitudes of whites on the diamond and in the sports pages, but also had to fend off criticism within the black community from some who saw him as too accommodating and others who feared that he was rocking the boat. After his playing days, he was criticized by some during the 1960s for not reflecting the more strident tone of those tumultuous times. Nevertheless, Robinson continued to speak out for civil rights. He publicly called for Major League Baseball to hire its first black manager in 1972, just weeks before his diabetesravaged body failed him at 53. Burns’ documentaries enjoy the mantle of “event” television, but also bear the burden of being seen as “official” histories and being compared to his other works. The soundtrack to “Robinson” is lush, but calls attention to the fact that it often seems like an offshoot of Burns’ earlier efforts, “Jazz” and “Baseball.” While this and many of Burns’ other films do an excellent job of putting their subjects in social and historical context, one wishes there were more discussion of the subjects’ relationship to our present day.

Dear Sister: Obviously, this attraction has been going on for at least four years (and probably longer). We agree that dating the sibling (or best friend) of an ex can be problematic and we don’t recommend it. But you don’t get to control who other people date, and that includes both your ex and your sister. Expressing your opinion about it is fine. Creating ultimatums only forces an estrangement. Your decision now is whether or not to accept your sister’s relationship in order to remain close to the rest of the family. If the two of them split up, you’ve lost nothing. If they marry, you will be stuck with this, so be sure you make a choice that you can live with. Dear Annie: I am writing about ‘‘Crying Mother,’’ who views her formerly loving

Stopgap steps Kansas needs to find long-term solutions for the problems facing its two state hospitals for people with serious mental illness.
A
pparently unable to address the underlying staffing problems at Larned State Hospital, state officials are engaging in what a representative of a state employee group called a “shell game” to temporarily ease stress on the Larned hospital staff. According to news reports, the Kansas Department of Aging and Disability Services will begin today to transfer 60 state inmates with mental health needs from special units at Larned State Hospital to a nearby facility operated by the Kansas Department of Corrections. The action will reverse a 2006 agreement between the two agencies that was designed to ease overcrowding at the correctional facility’s mental health unit. After transferring the inmates, KDADS will close two state hospital units and hopes to free up staff members at those units to beef up staffing in other parts of the hospital. It’s a temporary move, said KDADS Secretary Tim Keck, intended to ease understaffing that is requiring employees to work long overtime hours and perhaps compromising safety at Larned State Hospital, one of two remaining state hospitals for people with serious mental illness. To make room for the inmates leaving the state hospital, 60 inmates will have to be transferred from Larned to other state correctional facilities, which then will have to transfer general population inmates to county jails around the state. Hence, the “shell game” reference. KDADS spokeswoman Angela de Rocha told a Wichita newspaper that inmates being moved from the hospital “will get the same treatment” at the nearby correctional facility. “The way that the state is addressing their mental health issues will not change.” Is the status quo good enough? KDADS is making this move because it couldn’t adequately staff the state hospital unit. Will the correctional facilities, in Larned and elsewhere, that will receive these transfers be able to attract enough skilled professional staff to provide the same or better care? In the meantime, Osawatomie State Hospital, the state’s other facility for people with serious mental illness continues to operate without the benefit of $1 million a month in federal funding after losing its Medicare certification in December. The facility lost that funding at least in part because federal officials found understaffing problems that compromised safety at the hospital. The “temporary” moves at Larned may prevent a similar circumstance, but it doesn’t solve the serious problems facing these hospitals. The state needs to be looking at a longer-term strategy to serve the state’s need for residential mental health facilities.

Cruz’s foreign policy views troubling Before the Wisconsin primary, Sen. Ted Cruz’s views on foreign policy got too little attention. The media were so focused on Donald Trump’s wacky worldview and odd foreign policy “advisers” that scant attention was paid to the Texan’s foreign policy doctrine or team. That neglect should end now that Cruz’s win Tuesday has undercut Trump’s chance of clinching the nomination before the GOP convention. And once you start paying attention, what you find almost makes The Donald look good. Trump’s proposals — like blackmailing Mexico to pay for a border wall and withdrawing from NATO — are so wacky, and his advisory team such nonentities, that it’s almost impossible to take him seriously. Cruz, on the other hand, comes across as very, very serious. The Texas senator’s approach to foreign policy could aptly be summed up by his formula for defeating ISIS: “We will carpet-bomb them into oblivion.” In case conventional bombs aren’t enough, Cruz has added darkly, “I don’t know if sand can glow in the dark, but we’re going to find out.” Call it the bomb-’em-backto-the-stone-age doctrine. Cruz seems to be appealing to the same American frustrations as Trump, courting voters who just want to obliterate the Mideast and be done

Indeed, the Texan appears convinced that the international fight against jihadi terrorist thugs must be waged as a religious war of Christianity versus Islam, a narrative that plays right into the hands of ISIS.” with it so we don’t need to think about it anymore. Never mind that the indiscriminate bombing deaths of tens of thousands of innocent civilians in Iraq, Syria and elsewhere would enrage the Muslim world, indeed most of the world. The ensuing carnage would ensure the emergence of ISIS 2.0 and 3.0 in these devastated countries. This doesn’t seem to concern Cruz. Indeed, he says that on his first day in office, he would junk President Barack Obama’s nuclear deal with Iran, which — whatever its flaws — will prevent Tehran from producing enough fissile material for nuclear weapons for at least a decade. This
move would probably convince the ayatollahs to renege on their end of the deal, forcing Cruz to decide whether it was worth going to war to prevent an Iranian bomb. Given his apocalyptic language about the ayatollahs, would he carpet-bomb Tehran into oblivion? If not, what’s his Plan B? Unlike Ronald Reagan — whom he constantly cites as his role model — Cruz seems to have a very limited foreign policy toolbox. Reagan used force in proxy wars with the Soviets and spoke of them as “an evil empire,” but he also negotiated nuclear weapons treaties with Moscow. Cruz, on the other hand, seems disinterested in dealing with the complexities of the world he lives in. He proposes that police “patrol and secure” Muslim neighborhoods in America, a bizarre idea that insults Muslim Americans, few of whom live in isolated neighborhoods anyway. Cruz seems determined to alienate moderate Muslims at home and abroad. Indeed, the Texan appears convinced that the international fight against jihadi terrorist thugs must be waged as a religious war of Christianity versus Islam, a narrative that plays right into the hands of ISIS. To get a sense of Cruz’s penchant for religious war, you need only look at some of the fringe extremists he has hired for his foreign policy team. That team includes Frank
Gaffney, head of the Center for Security Policy, a think tank that propagates wild conspiracy theories. Gaffney has said that “Barack Hussein Obama would have to be considered America’s first Muslim president.” Gaffney also claims the Muslim Brotherhood has “penetrated” the Bush and Obama administrations and is out to impose sharia over the entire country. His views are so bizarre that he has charged Grover Norquist, president of Americans for Tax Reform, with being a mole for the Brotherhood. Also on Cruz’s team is retired Gen. William “Jerry” Boykin, an evangelical Christian whose public religiosity caused him difficulties when he was still on active duty. Boykin casts the war against radical Islamists as a struggle between Christians and Satan. And then there is Cruz team member Michael Ledeen, who for years has urged the United States to carry out “regime change” in Tehran. So if you thought Trump was scary, give a thought to what the country may face if President Cruz enters the White House. Consider the prospect of a deeply religious Christian evangelical who believes in holy war and surrounds himself with like-minded advisers. That prospect is almost enough to make Trump sound like a reasonable man. — Trudy Rubin is a columnist at the Philadelphia Inquirer.
OLD HOME TOWN

From the Lawrence Daily Journal-World for April 11, 1916: years “‘Every man and ago woman should IN 1916 turn out to the school meetings over the county Friday, April 14, in an effort to make the schools better and not for the purpose of settling some neighborhood “row,”’ says Mr. C. R. Hawley, county superintendent.... According to Superintendent Hawley, too much stress is laid upon the election of officers of the board at these meetings to the detriment of the school.” — Compiled by Sarah St. John

Trump’s wall plan crazy, inhumane After almost a year of keeping us guessing, Republican hopeful Donald Trump has finally revealed how he plans to get Mexico to pay for the wall along the U.S.Mexican border that he says he would build as president. And his idea couldn’t be more counterproductive. In a two-page memo to The Washington Post to clarify how he would pay for his proposed 1,000-mile border fence, Trump said that he would threaten Mexico with cutting part of the estimated $25 billion in remittances that Mexicans living in the United States send their families back home unless Mexico pays for the wall. If Mexico fails to make “a one-time payment of $5-10 billion” to pay for the border wall, the United States would expand the Patriot Act antiterrorism law to cut off part of U.S.-based Mexicans’ family remittances to their home country, he said. He added, characteristically, “It’s an easy decision for Mexico.” Manuel Orozco, a migration expert with the InterAmerican Dialogue think tank in Washington, D.C., who has done several studies on family remittances, says Trump’s proposal to cut these flows is “deranged,” among other things because the U.S. president would have no authority to do such a thing. It would

More importantly, the measure would backfire, because it would cripple Mexico’s economy and drive more Mexicans to move to the United States.”
take congressional action, he said. More importantly, the measure would backfire, because it would cripple Mexico’s economy and drive more Mexicans to move to the United States. “The immediate effect would be to increase migration,” Orozco told me. “You would be financially strangling millions of Mexican people, depriving them of about half of their monthly income. That would drive many of them to seek a better life in the United States.” Cutting family remittanc-
es would create havoc in the Mexican economy, because these monthly flows amount to more than Mexico’s tourism income, and — more importantly — it’s money that goes directly into the pockets of Mexico’s poorest. About 6 million of Mexico’s estimated 28 million families receive family remittances. In some poverty-ridden states, such as Oaxaca and Chiapas, many families depend on these money transfers for their livelihood. Take that money away, and they will have little option but to emigrate, most often without papers. Trump would reply that his proposed “beautiful” wall would prevent Mexicans from crossing the border illegally. But more than 40 percent of undocumented migrants are not entering the country through the land border, but flying into U.S. airports. They come in with tourist visas and overstay, U.S. officials say. Trump’s proposed wall would do nothing to stop those migrants. In addition, cutting family remittances would drive more Mexican youths into crime, which would drive many more Mexicans to migrate. An even more crimeridden or socially unstable Mexico would hardly be good for the United States,
migration experts argue. My opinion: Trump’s proposal is not only inhumane, but counterproductive. As Orozco said, it would only help increase the flow of undocumented Mexicans to the United States at a time when illegal immigration is way below what it was in 2008. It’s typical of Trump’s simplistic proposals, like his vow to deport 11 million undocumented U.S. residents, build a wall along the border, or pull out of NATO, which would do more harm than good. Unfortunately, after Trump’s defeat in Tuesday’s Wisconsin primary, I’m afraid he will only step up his populist xenophobic proposals in coming weeks to keep making headlines and draw more extreme-right voters to the polls. He is ahead in the polls in several upcoming primaries, including New York’s, and must win them decisively to maintain a decent chance to win the Republican nomination. Trump has said that his family is urging him to be more “presidential,” but I’m afraid he will stress his crazy proposals in coming weeks, and probably come up with new ones. His latest plan to cut family remittances may just be a sample of this. — Andres Oppenheimer is a Latin America correspondent for the Miami Herald.

NFL STAR LATEST ROAD RAGE VICTIM
Death of ex-Saint Will Smith is third incident in a week John Bacon USA TODAY
The shocking death of former NFL football star Will Smith in apparent road rage in New Orleans marked the nation’s third highly publicized road rage incident in less than a week. Smith, 34, a beloved player who won a Super Bowl with the
New Orleans Saints, was fatally shot Saturday following an argument after his car was rear-ended, police said in a statement. In Minneapolis on Tuesday, a gunman shot a motorist multiple times in a road rage incident. And in Houston on Wednesday, a brawl involving several adults broke out over a parking space at the Houston Zoo. While the circumstances and motive surrounding Smith’s death are not yet firmly established, the problem of road rage is clear cut and on the rise. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration data, based on

police reports, show road rage or aggressive driving were reported as factors in 375 fatal crashes that resulted in 418 deaths in 2014, the latest year statistics are available. In 2009, road rage or aggressive driving was reported as a
contributing factor in 196 fatal crashes, causing 235 fatalities. The numbers do not include violence after a crash. Of course, the vast majority of road rage and aggressive driving incidents do not result in death. Jeff Asher, a crime data consultant based in New Orleans, said Sunday that there are no firm statistics on road rage. He said curbing the problem has more to do with psychology than driving skills. “It’s about conflict resolution,” Asher told USA TODAY. “It starts in childhood, with education. Teaching people to resolve their conflicts peacefully.”
In New Orleans, Smith and his wife were traveling in their Mercedes when they were struck by a Hummer H2 driven by Cardell Hayes, 28, police said. The two men “exchanged words,” the police statement said, then Hayes fatally shot Smith and wounded Smith’s wife. A recent survey by the AAA Foundation for Traffic Safety found 87% of respondents said they believed aggressive drivers were a “somewhat” or “very serious” threat to their personal safety.

President Obama said Hillary Clinton exhibited “carelessness” in handling emails, but he defended his former secretary of State and “guaranteed” that politics will not influence an ongoing investigation of her, in an appearance on Fox News Sunday. “I guarantee that there is no political influence in any investigation conducted by the Justice Department or the FBI — not just in this case, but in any case,” Obama said in the pre-taped interview that broadcast Sunday. While critics say Clinton’s private email system could have been used to illegally transmit classified information, exposing it to hackers, Obama described her as an “outstanding” secretary of State — though he questioned her use of private email. “What I’ve also said is that — and she has acknowledged — that there’s a carelessness, in terms of managing emails, that she has owned, and she recognizes,” Obama told Fox News. Obama said he could not comment in detail about the Clinton investigation because it is ongoing but said he is confident that the institutions of the Justice Department and FBI are going by the book. Clinton, who is battling Bernie Sanders for the Democratic presidential nomination, said she is cooperating with investigations and that there is no chance of her being indicted.

Kepler’s cry for help: Craft in trouble 75M miles away Mission declares an ‘emergency’ J.D. Gallop Florida Today
The Kepler spacecraft — initially launched to find other habitable planets across the universe — has kicked into an emergency mode more than 75 million miles away in deep space, prompting efforts on Earth to recalibrate the unmanned observatory. “The mission has declared a spacecraft emergency, which provides priority access to ground-
based communications at the agency’s Deep Space Network,” according to a statement issued by NASA. Mission operations engineers were expecting a routine contact with the $600 million spacecraft on April 7 when it was determined that Kepler had moved into an emergency mode, which means the spacecraft is operating minimally while fuel intensive. Mission engineers based in Silicon Valley at the Ames Research Center were hoping to aim Kepler toward the Milky Way’s center. The spacecraft’s mission is part of the larger Discovery Program

The spacecraft was launched March 6, 2009, from Cape Canaveral Air Station with a threeand-a half year mission to seek out signs of other habitable, Earth-like planets. That mission was completed in 2012; the spacecraft confirmed the existence of more than 1,000 planets orbiting stars outside of Earth’s solar system. It now has an extended mission to study supernovae, young stars and other objects in space.

In Ukraine, Lenin gone, but the past still haunts Sherry Ricchiardi
Special for USA TODAY
ZAPORIZHIA , UKRAINE As we slid into a taxi on a bone-chilling afternoon, the driver delivered the news: “Lenin kaput,” he said with a wide grin. “You want to have a look?” We rushed to a square on the Dnieper River where, for days, workers braved freezing winds to bring down a last vestige of Communist rule in this industrial city. Around 3 p.m. on March 17, Ukraine’s largest remaining statue of Vladimir Lenin was carted away in a flatbed truck. When a crane lifted the founder of the Soviet state from a pink granite pedestal, fireworks exploded. Hundreds of onlookers cheered, waved blue and yellow flags and shouted, “Glory to Ukraine.” Kateryna Markova spent 30 hours keeping a vigil for her TV station. As the 65-foot statue came down, she was overcome by emotion. “My camera was shaking. We have waited so long for this,” said Markova, 26, who grew up across the street from the square. “All my life I could see Lenin from my window. I cannot believe he finally is gone.” Not everyone was ecstatic. A longing to re-establish ties to Russia runs deep in some parts of this ex-Soviet republic.
FRANK S. FOLWELL
Workers dismantle a 65-foot Lenin statue, a symbol of Ukraine’s Soviet past, that was removed on March 17. Photojournalist Frank Folwell and I were teaching at Zaporizhia National University when “Leninfell,” as some call it, was launched. We often stopped by to watch the removal process and gauge the mood of spectators. While one group hoisted vodka in raucous farewell toasts, others stood silently, wiping tears over Lenin’s demise. On a rainy afternoon, an elderly woman shouted for workers to stop sawing at the base and belted out a patriotic Russian song. A few made feeble attempts to
The sentiments in Zaporizhia are a microcosm of the ideological split that threatens to tear Ukraine apart. stop the demolition. Security guards whisked them away. Our translator explained, “There are lots of Lenin defenders and local separatists here. Some have mixed feelings.”
Grigoriy Bensman, 74, was adamant: “I am not for communism, but Lenin should stay. He is part of our history.” He credits the Soviet leader for the dam in Zaporizhia that brought electricity to the region in the 1930s. Two young men eavesdropping nearby were not buying it. They wanted Lenin “down and out of sight. We are looking to the future, not the past,” Eugeniy Tregger, 21, said. The sentiments in Zaporizhia are a microcosm of the ideological split that threatens to tear Ukraine apart. On Dec. 8, 2013, Euromaidan protesters pulled down Kiev’s landmark Lenin statue, marking a turning point in the country’s political crisis. They opposed the Ukrainian government’s plans for closer ties to Moscow. A newly elected government passed laws to obliterate Ukraine’s Communist past. Soviet symbols were banned; streets, parks and public buildings renamed. Today, the dust from Ukraine’s past is far from settled. Russian-backed rebels occupy territory in the Donbas region, 120 miles from Zaporizhia. More than 9,100 have been killed, and 1.5 million Ukrainians have been displaced. On April 1, Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty posted a headline, “Spike in fighting in eastern Ukraine threatens fragile ceasefire.” The article noted that monitors from OSCE — Organization for Security and Cooperation in
Europe — had observed evidence of Russian soldiers and weapons “since the conflict began,” a charge Russian vehemently denies. On our last night in town, we invited five bright, Englishspeaking journalism students to a campus hangout for pizza and beer. All supported closer ties to the European Union. Were they concerned war could spread to Zaporizhia? “Sure, we are afraid. Why not? We know there are separatists here,” said Andrei, who was about to turn 20. Others nodded in agreement. According to the students, their grandparents and “other old people” tend to idealize Soviet times, touting free education, free health care and governmentsubsidized apartments. “They don’t mention the bad stuff that went on with Stalin and other Soviet leaders,” Andrei said. As we gave farewell hugs, there was a final question: “When you return to America, what will you say about Ukraine?” “We will say if your generation has its way, this country will be in good hands.” That led to smiles and light applause. As we headed back to our hotel, there was lingering concern: If Russia does flex its muscle, what price will these promising young Ukrainians have to pay?

Brussels suspects had planned to hit France Group chose a different target because of Paris probe, prosecutor says
Steph Solis USA TODAY
The group responsible for the deadly bombings in Brussels initially had planned to attack France, Belgium’s federal prosecutor said Sunday. The suspects were “surprised by the speed of the progress in the ongoing investigation” and decided to attack Brussels instead, the office said in a statement. The alleged organizers of the Brussels attacks were part of the same group behind the Paris massacre in November, federal prosecutors said. The statements from prosecutors come after the arrest of Mohamed Abrini, who was described as the “man in the hat” or the “man in white” captured on surveillance footage with the two suicide bombers at Brussels Airport, RTBF reported. Abrini and three others were charged with “terrorist murders” and con-
ducting the “activities of a terrorist group” in connection with the Brussels attacks. “It’s fresh proof of the very real threat that weighs on all of Europe, and on France in particular,” French Prime Minister Manuel Valls said. Belgian Justice Minister Koen Geens told VRT network it amounted to “a dirty war” when more attacks could be expected. “We need to remain very alert and new cells can pop up at any moment. The facts have already taught us that,” Geens added. The suicide bombers killed 16 people at the Brussels Airport on March 22, and another16 people died in a blast at a subway station. Abrini confessed he was the “man in the hat” seen in surveillance footage, prosecutors said. The other suspects were identified as Osama Krayem, Herve B. M. and Bilal E. M. Krayem, who is known to have left the Swedish city of Malmo to fight in Syria. Investigators found links be-

Authorities said a series of raids leading up to the Brussels attack, notably the arrest of key suspect Salah Abdeslam on March 18, prompted the suspects to change course and speed up the plan.
Several connections surfaced involving Abrini. Surveillance footage shows him driving Abdeslam to Paris two days before the rampage. Abrini’s fingerprints and DNA were found in a car used in Paris, and an apartment in Brussels used by the airport bombers.

view, his first on the program as president, Obama also suggested that over-classification may be at play, and that some of the emails traced to Clinton should not have had high classification. While there is “top-secret” information that should not be shared, Obama said there is also material “being presented to the president or the secretary of State, that you might not want on the transom, or going out over the wire, but is basically stuff that you could get in open-source.” Obama also said, “I continue to believe that she has not jeopardized America’s national security.” During the interview taped during his recent visit to Chicago, Obama also said: uProposals by Republican presidential candidates Donald Trump and Ted Cruz will undermine national security. Saying the nation should stand by its laws and values in the fight against the Islamic State, Obama criticized Cruz’s proposal to “carpet bomb” Islamic State positions and Trump’s plan to temporarily ban Muslims from entering the United States until the terrorism problem is addressed. “We have to make sure that what we do doesn’t end up being counterproductive,” Obama said, adding: “Our approach has to be smart.”

uHis “No. 1 job is to protect the American people,” and his “No. 1 priority” is to defeat the Islamic State. Disputing claims by Trump, Cruz and other Republicans that he is not taking the terrorist threat seriously enough, Obama said that “there isn’t a president who’s taken more terrorists off the field than me, over the last seven-and-a-half years.” uIf necessary, he will stick with Supreme Court nominee Merrick Garland until the end of his term in January, regardless of whether Clinton or a Republican wins the presidential election in November.
Again demanding that the Republican Senate vote as soon as possible on Garland’s nomination, Obama said that “as more senators meet with him, I think they will recognize the qualities” of the current appeals court judge. uHe understands the frustrations with government expressed by supporters of Trump and Sanders, among other protest candidates. While the economy is improving, Obama said the nation is “still shell-shocked” from the financial meltdown of 2007 and 2008. Many people lost their homes, jobs and savings, the president told Fox News Sunday, “and they
still don’t fully know how that happened, and was the system fixed in a way that they can have confidence in.” uHis best day in office was the congressional vote approving his health care bill, while the worst was traveling to Newtown, Conn., after the mass shooting at an elementary school. His biggest accomplishment? “Saving the economy from a Great Depression.” Worst mistake? “Probably failing to plan for the day after ... in intervening in Libya.” When he leaves office in January, Obama said the thing he will miss the most — “other than Air Force One” — is “the breadth of interactions” he has with the American people. “When you are president, you Corrections & Clarifications USA TODAY is committed to accuracy.

KERRY WILL MAKE HISTORY WITH HIROSHIMA VISIT WHILE IN JAPAN Secretary of State won’t apologize for the bombing Kirk Spitzer USA TODAY
S
TOKYO
ecretary of State John Kerry arrived Sunday in Japan for meetings with foreign ministers from six other leading nations — and a historic visit to Hiroshima, the site of the world’s first atomic bombing. On Monday, Kerry will become the highest-ranking U.S. official to attend a memorial service at the Hiroshima Peace Park, ground zero for the first of two atomic bombs dropped by the United States on Japan near the end of World War II. He will not apologize for the attack, the Associated Press reported, citing an unnamed U.S. official. Kerry is scheduled to lay a wreath at the Cenotaph for A-bomb Victims and to tour the nearby Atomic Bomb Museum. An estimated 140,000 Japanese died Aug. 6, 1945, in the Hiroshima bombing, which remains a deeply emotional subject for many Japanese people. The park and museum attract more than 1 million visitors a year; memorial services are held annually. For decades, top U.S. officials avoided going to Hiroshima because of the sensitive issue. Then-U.S. Ambassador John Roos was the first U.S. envoy to attend a memorial service in Hiroshima in 2010, and current Ambassador Caroline Kennedy attended in 2014 and 2015. Hiroshima Mayor Kazumi Matsui and other officials have urged President Obama to visit Hiroshima when he is in Japan in late May to attend the G-7 Summit in the Ise-Shima region.

CIA Director John Brennan said Sunday the intelligence agency will not engage in “enhanced interrogation” practices, including waterboarding — even if a future president demands it. Speaking to NBC News, Brennan said he “absolutely” would not agree to having “any CIA officer carrying out waterboarding again.” The CIA used waterboarding and other techniques on suspected terrorists after the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks. But in January 2009, early in his first term, President Obamasigned an executive order banning the CIA from using the harsh techniques. The CIA has said it stopped waterboarding in 2003. Two of the top Republican presidential candidates have signaled they would support using waterboarding to combat terrorism. — Greg Toppo EMBATTLED UKRAINE PRIME MINISTER RESIGNS

A search effort off the coast of North Carolina continued Sunday for a sailor from the dock landing ship Carter Hall who is missing and presumed to have fallen overboard Saturday on a training mission off the coast of North Carolina. The aircraft carrier USS Dwight D. Eisenhower assumed the lead role in the search effort, Navy officials said. The ship commenced the search after a female third-class petty officer was discovered missing Saturday at about 4:20 p.m., according to an early internal Navy report obtained by Navy Times. A pair of boots with a note was reportedly found on deck near the rear of the ship, the report said, which did not mention the missing woman’s name. — David Larter, Navy Times

David Cameron’s father ran a trust fund with the aid of Panama law firm Mossack Fonseca.
Chris Woodyard USA TODAY
British Prime Minister David Cameron released his income tax returns from the past seven years Sunday as he sought to quell controversy about his personal investments in the latest fallout from the Panama Papers. While Cameron hoped to calm political waters regarding an offshore trust account set up by his late father, Ian Cameron, the disclosure also raised more questions. Protesters have been calling for his resignation. Cameron is one of several major world leaders, including Russian President Vladimir Putin, who have been caught in the snare of the so-called Panama Papers. Iceland’s prime minister, Sigmundur David Gunnlaugsson, stepped aside last week over his family’s financial dealings that became public. Journalists have been poring over 11 million documents that divulge financial accounts set up in tax-haven countries through the Panama law firm Mossack Fonseca. The disclosures, starting a week ago, shed light on how the rich and powerful appear to have tucked away fortunes in hidden offshore accounts. Cameron told the Conservative Party that he was wrong in failing to acknowledge his investment in Blairmore Holdings, a trust fund based in the Bahamas that was run by his father with the aid of Mossack Fonseca. “I could have handled this better,” he told his party members. The prime minister’s tax records showed he made 9,501 British pounds, about $15,297, in profits from selling his stake in Blairmore in 2010. Cameron became prime minister in May, 2010, four months after he sold his shares in Blairmore. His wife recorded about the same amount of profit, falling shy of the level that would

In the most recent tax year, Cameron had a taxable income of about $310,000. While casting light on Cameron’s finances, the disclosure didn’t note whether the prime minister benefited from other tax-avoidance investments before 2010. British newspapers seized upon what appeared to be ways Cameron used to avoid paying the capital gains tax. The headline in The Mail newspaper: “Cameron Tax Bill Dodge.”

Mounted sheriff’s unit back in the saddle Marcella Corona Reno Gazette-Journal
RENO Four years before his rescue, Gunnar the horse was suffering. He had a broken rear leg that had fused together, he was 400 pounds underweight, and he was living in a pen alone. Four years after his rescue, he is ready to serve on the new Mounted Horses Unit at the Washoe County Sheriff’s Office. The Washoe County Sheriff’s Office announced earlier this week that it was bringing back an old tradition, thanks to six deputies who volunteered to participate and enlist their horses. Although many deputies supported the idea, it was Lt. Jeff Clark who pushed to bring back the unit. The department previously had a horses unit in the early 1990s before it was disbanded because of budget cuts, Washoe County Sheriff Chuck Allen said. “It started with a conversation among many deputies last year asking me if I would be willing to bring back the equestrian program to the county sheriff’s office family, and it didn’t take me long to say yes,” Allen said Tuesday.

Some 173,000 cars made from Dec. 11, 2009, to Oct. 31, 2010 are covered under the recall. Hyundai told the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration that an electronic power steering circuit board can become damaged, resulting in loss of power steering. If that happens, it will take a lot more effort, and could result in a crash.

The Cuban government has yet to approve a U.S. ferry to start service. One operator tells the “Tampa Tribune” that it’s optimistic it will receive permission to set sail as early as June. Service could be started from Miami, Fort Lauderdale and Key West. Ferry service would be cheaper than baggage fees for a flight for passengers bringing bulk goods to family in Cuba, said Phil Richards, of Havana Ferry Partners. Tickets would cost roughly $290, and the first 40-60 pounds of baggage would be free.

NEWS MONEY SPORTS Hard to swallow: Chipotle facing its first loss ever LIFE AUTOS I TRAVEL

Matt Krantz USA TODAY
nvestors are prepared for a lousy earnings season. But the hardest hits to swallow are going to come from companies expected to actually sink into the red after making money just a year ago. A prime example is Chipotle Mexican Grill (CMG). The burrito chain dogged by food-safety concerns is expected to post its first-ever loss since it started reporting public financials a decade ago. That’s just the most dramatic swing, though, in a potentially ugly quarter for the bottom line.

“It’s going to be a gut-wrenching couple of weeks as investors reconcile current (stock) prices with tepid results from companies.”
FROM PROFIT TO LOSS S&P 500 companies expected to post losses in Q1 of 2016 that were profitable in Q1 of 2015:
Jack Ablin, BMO Private Bank
There are 16 companies in the Standard & Poor’s 500, including a host of energy companies like EOG (EOG) and Noble (NBL), but also computer chip maker Micron Technology (MU), that are expected to post adjusted losses during the first quarter after being profitable the same period a year ago, according to a USA TODAY analysis of data from S&P Global Market Intelligence. S&P 500 companies, in total, are expected to post 7.9% lower profit in the first quarter – the steepest drop in growth since the second quarter of 2009. Earnings reports will be top of mind for investors this week as aluminum company Alcoa (AA) unofficially kicks off the reporting season Monday. “It’s going to be a tough earnings season,” says Jack Ablin, chief investment officer at BMO Private Bank. “It’s going to be a gut-wrenching couple of weeks as investors reconcile current (stock) prices with tepid results from companies.” Much of the pain is the result of the profit evaporation at some energy companies.

16 companies expected to swing from a profit to a loss are in the energy sector. The biggest drop is expected to come from EOG Resources, a Houston-based oil and natural gas explorer. Last year, the company eked out an adjusted profit of 3 cents a share, but in the first quarter is seen losing 79 cents. That’s what happens when the price of a barrel of oil drops by about a third between the beginning of 2015 and the start of 2016. Meanwhile, Chipotle is expected to report an adjusted loss of $1.05 a share in the first quarter, a bitter taste for investors considering the company earned $3.88 a share in the same period a year ago and never posted an adjusted loss before. Analysts think S&P 500 companies will see profit growth again in the third quarter, but “investors have to come face-to-face with these numbers,” Ablin says.

Four questions banks must answer The clouds may be parting — but another storm could be on the way Kaja Whitehouse USA TODAY
Large banks have come under myriad pressures in recent months, ranging from declining merger activity to souring oil and gas loans. Those pressures have weighed heavily on bank stocks, which are down by double-digits this year. Shares of Bank of America are down 22% this year, while Citigroup’s stock is off 21%. Even Wells Fargo, a darling of bank investors, is down 13% for the year. So it should come as no surprise that banks are expected to report sagging revenue in the first three months of the year. JPMorgan, for example, is expected to post earnings of $1.26 a share on revenue of $22.7 billion when it kicks off earnings season Wednesday, according to data from S&P Capital IQ. That’s down from last year’s first quarter when the New York bank posted earnings of $1.45 a share on revenue of $24.1 billion. Still, bank analysts and investors will be looking for signs about the future of banking when they talk to bank executives about the three months ended in March. Here are four questions the big banks will need to answer when they report earnings: uAre oil and gas loan woes improving? The banks gave investors a significant scare earlier this year when they warned that they were upping loan loss reserves for the first time in years NEW YORK
AP
Big banks are likely to report sagging revenue in the first three months of the year. Earnings season kicks off Wednesday. to protect against souring loans to troubled oil and gas companies. Such cash cushions increase banks’ costs and therefore pressure earnings. At the time the banks started warning of loan deterioration, the price of oil had fallen to $30 a barrel and executives were bracing for prices to drop to $20 a barrel. Now, there are signs that the pressure could be easing as the price of oil climbs to closer to $40 a barrel. Banks will still likely announce that they upped their loan loss reserves in the first quarter compared to the previous quarter. The question is whether the amounts they are setting aside were as severe as initially predic-
ted, and whether their predictions for the rest of the year have improved, analysts said. uHow are American consumers doing? Even as bank executives rushed to protect against deteriorating oil and gas loans, they loudly proclaimed the U.S. consumer remains in good health, which is good news for banks. “The U.S. consumer is a huge winner” of falling oil prices, JPMorgan CEO Jamie Dimon told investors at the company’s annual Investor Day in February. When banks report first-quarter results, analysts and investors will be keen to hear whether such predictions have held true, analysts said. uHow bad was trading? In-
vestment banks that make money trading on behalf of large clients have been getting hammered in recent months, especially when it comes to fixed income and currencies. Analysts and investors will want to know whether the bloodbath continued in the first quarter and whether it leaked into equities as well. There is some indication that things were bad. In early March, Citigroup’s Chief Financial Officer, John Gerspach, warned that first-quarter revenue from fixedincome and equity trading will fall by 15%. JPMorgan warned that revenue from sales and trading could decline by 20% for the quarter. uWhat’s the outlook for investment banking and IPOs? If trading is expected to be down, investment banking revenue could prove even worse. Citigroup’s Gerspach warned that the bank’s investment banking revenue would be down 25% in the first quarter, as did JPMorgan, citing declines in stock and debt underwriting. To be sure, last year’s first quarter proved a stellar year for investment banking revenues, so it will be hard to compete. But investors and analysts will also be looking for signs about what activity could start picking up again — and when. So far this year, the outlook appears pretty dire. Global M&A activity totaled $701.5 billion in the first three months of the year, down 25% over the previous year, according to Dealogic. Initial public stock offerings are also sagging, down 69% over last year.

Pack attack: Hotels to rescue Don’t panic if you forgot to bring something; just ask your concierge Charisse Jones USA TODAY
All travelers have been there. You’re dashing out the door on a business trip, and when you arrive at your destination, you realize you’ve forgotten a must-have, such as deodorant or your toothbrush. And sometimes the items business trekkers forget to pack go well beyond toiletries. We’re talking power cords, cuff links — even shoes. “I was on business in Dubai ... and in packing a quick bag, missed the shoes completely,” recalls Barry Phillips, who lives in New York City and is a customer experience manager. “Within three hours of arrival, the hotel had arranged the same shoes and size for delivery at my hotel room from the Dubai Mall.” And there was no charge, adds Phillips, a member of USA TODAY’s Road Warriors panel of frequent travelers. Beyond the standard toothpaste and shower caps, many hotels have a stash of sometimes unusual essentials to help guests who’ve left what they need at home. The guest services team at The Ritz-Carlton Reynolds, Lake Oconee in Greensboro, Ga., for instance, has cufflinks, bow ties and shirt collar stays on standby. Along with chargers for smartphones and laptops, there’s also a complimentary shoe shine ser-
vice, and the concierge even has an Allen wrench if your golf club needs a slight tweak. “We want to make traveling as convenient as possible for our guests whether they are here for meetings or to relax at the lake,” Ralph Vick, general manager at The Ritz-Carlton Reynolds said in an email. “We assist guests on a daily basis who forget to bring important items.” At the Arizona Biltmore, a Waldorf Astoria Resort in Phoenix, the personal concierge and housekeeping director have eyeglass repair kits and bug spray at the ready. The Conrad Miami’s complimentary trove includes belts and socks. And if you’re staying at the Ritz-Carlton, Philadelphia, and find that your luggage was waylaid, you can help yourself to a complimentary tote that includes toiletries and pajamas. Sometimes hotels share items that have been left behind by previous guests. And a few are not above borrowing from staff to help out a desperate corporate trekker. Road Warrior Ron Sklaver found that out first hand on a business trip to Melbourne, Australia, when he needed a dress shirt in a hurry. “They brought a rolling rack of shirts from the bellboy uniforms up to my room,” Sklaver, a professional services manager based in Palm Harbor, Fla., said of the Sheraton hotel staff. “I picked one that fit and kept my jacket on

I was checking out and going straight from the meeting to the airport, and they didn’t care that they would never see the shirt again.’’ Hal Warren, a commercial real estate investment adviser and USA TODAY Road Warrior who lives in Orlando said a Hyatt Place in Pensacola came to his
rescue with a spare pair of khaki pants. John Musso, a Road Warrior who is CEO of a non-profit association, says he tends to forget essentials when he is rushing between back to back treks. “Last year ... I had to go to Palm Springs (Calif.), come home one day, then go to Anchorage (Alaska),” Musso, who lives in Ashburn, Va., recalls. “I was so rushed preparing, and the day at the office was so crazy, that I picked up the wrong bag. Alaska clothes went to Palm Springs. You can imagine what I was trying to borrow from the hotel.” At other times, hotels have helped him out with a spare tie, USB cord — and black dress shoes in size 13. Also, “on occasion, I forgot to pack workout clothes,” he says. “Some hotels were able to provide athletic shoes and socks, gym shorts and shirts.” Once, when the zipper on his bag broke, he asked the concierge how to get to a store where he could replace it. “To my surprise, the hotel had one that was left in a room,” Musso says. The bag’s owner had asked the hotel to return the contents, “but not the case itself due to the shipping fee.” Dennis Reno, a Road Warrior from Alameda, Calif., didn’t need a whole suitcase, but he did once need a spare wheel. “I was at the Marriott Park Lane in London,” said Reno, a corporate vice president working in technology, “and they replaced it.”
Q: From a pilot’s standpoint, how revolutionary was the advent of the Boeing 707 vs. the 787? — George, N.Y. A: The 787 and Airbus A350 are the latest generation of modern jets. They are much more fuel-efficient, automated and comfortable than the first-generation B707 and DC-8. The 707 was more revolutionary in its day. Modern jets such as the 787 are easier to fly, and are more evolutionary. Q: How much has the efficiency of planes improved over the last 30 to 40 years? For example, how much more efficient are Boeing 737s and 747s now compared to when they first entered service? What is their range now relative to three decades ago? — Richard, San Antonio A: The improvement in efficiency of modern jet engines compared to the first generation is remarkable. The last number I saw is that the most modern jets are 70% more efficient than the first generation. We now fly 18 hours routinely, where the first B707s and DC-8s struggled to get across the Atlantic. Q: I just retired after 42+ years in the industry and am still amazed at how much things have changed. How does the length of the B707 compare with the longest stretch 737? — Alan, formerly of Piedmont/US Airways A: The basic length of a B707 was 145 feet, the basic length of a 737-900 is 136 feet. Yes, there have been some changes in our industry in the last 40 years. Q: Would it be possible for a pilot to do a barrel-roll or somersault in a commercial airliner carrying passengers? — Troy V., Dallas A: Yes, very early in the Boeing 707’s development, pilot Tex Johnson rolled the demonstration airplane over the Seattle Seafair. While physics may permit it, good judgment would not. Have a question about flying? Send it to travel@usatoday.com.
Passenger shaming not black and white Putting focus on air travelers’ bad behavior widespread with Internet Christopher Elliott
chris@elliott.org Special for USA TODAY
You’ve seen the pictures, haven’t you? You know, the snapshots of oversized airline passengers violating their seatmates’ space. Of travelers propping their bare feet against seatbacks. Or of the trash they leave behind after their flight. It’s called passenger shaming, or the act of taking travelers — usually air travelers — to task for their boorish behavior. And while some passengers probably deserve to be called out, most don’t. But it was just a matter of time before something abstract, like uploading a photo of someone’s shame-worthy actions, crossed over into the real word, with troubling results. To understand how we arrived here, you have to return to the start of the passenger-shaming movement. Many of the humiliation-inducing photos came from airline crewmembers who couldn’t believe what they were seeing. Some of their customers were acting like caged animals. Sandra Sanci, a flight attendant for a Canadian airline, says occasionally passengers deserved the negative publicity. ON TRAVEL EVERY MONDAY
CHAD MCDERMOTT, GETTY IMAGES/HEMERA
Some passengers and flight attendants are going online to shame others. These reports of public humiliation are rising. “If they are compromising safety in any way, yes, by all means,” she says. “It really depends on the level of aggression they are displaying.” But what about ordinary rudeness, like leaning your seat into someone’s personal space or loading your luggage into the bin above another passenger’s seat? Even travelers agree that the culprits deserve a little exposure — and embarrassment. “These people should be shamed publicly,” says Maryann Lasalle, a retired insurance underwriter from Mullica Hill, N.J. “If I pay for a seat and even pay additional fees to be in the front of the plane, either I or the passengers seated in my row should be the only ones using the bins
above our seats.” Yet in many cases, it’s not really the “shamees” fault, at least not to the extent that it seems. For example, there’s an infamous image of an impossibly overweight passenger that made the rounds a few years ago, that shows half of the passenger’s body blocking the aisle. It’s visually arresting. It was said to be taken by a flight attendant, but was allegedly the product of said attendant’s Photoshop skills. That’s a particularly vile form of public humiliation called body shaming and does nothing to further good behavior among travelers. Curiously, airlines appear to do little to stop these anonymous protest actions by their employees.
WHERE TO FIND PASSENGER SHAMING u Passengershaming .com (also on Facebook at facebook.com/ PassengerShaming). It’s the best-known forum for humiliating airline passengers. Many of the posters are airline cabin crew. u The blogosphere. Sites such as Rants of a Sassy Stew (rantsofasassy stew.com) and The Flight Attendant Life (theflight attendantlife.com) often chronicle incorrigible passenger behavior. u On your next flight. Unfortunately, passengers and flight attendants are not waiting to go online to shame you. Reports of public humiliation are surfacing at a regular rate and are only expected to increase as the summer travel season gets underway.
“I don’t believe that blame or shame are productive ways of dealing with any problem,” says Marjorie Yasueda, a retired travel agent from San Francisco. “If there is a problem, I prefer dealing with it one-on-one and as privately as possible.” Perhaps, she adds, too much is expected from air travelers. “Unfortunately, we don’t become fab-
ulous people just by walking down a jetway,” she adds. Agree or not, the online version of this hobby appears to be jumping into real life. Consider what happened to Christina Fabian-Roman, who was flying from Bellingham, Wash., to Phoenix recently with her husband, who is suffering from terminal cancer, and their 7-year-old son. As the aircraft boarded, her son reportedly had an allergic reaction to a dog. Reseating the family didn’t help, so attendants finally had them to exit the aircraft. I’m sure passengers on the flight were unhappy with the resulting delay and maybe they were unaware of the family’s personal circumstances. But their reaction — some are said to have applauded as the family got off the plane. They didn’t wait to go online to show their displeasure. They did it in public and without seeing the big picture. Shame on them. Passenger shaming begs an even bigger question: Are air travelers the only ones to blame for the repulsive acts being committed onboard? At first glance, it appears many of these people are being inconsiderate and ought to be called out online, if not also offline. But did they install the too-small seats? Did they create the fees, fare restrictions and the customer-hostile, you-get-whatyou-pay-for service? They did not. But you know who did.

Burns’ ‘Jackie Robinson’ looks far beyond baseball Before the fight for rights, ‘he’s first through the door’ Bill Keveney USA TODAY
Jackie Robinson was not the best baseball player who ever lived, but renowned filmmaker Ken Burns makes a strong argument that he was the most important one. Robinson, the Brooklyn Dodgers infielder who broke baseball’s infamous color barrier in 1947, advanced America’s pastime and the nation, says Burns, who directed the twopart Jackie Robinson (PBS, Monday and Tuesday, 9 p.m. ET/PT) with his daughter, Sarah Burns, and son-in-law, David McMahon. “He’s a really good baseball player. He’s in the Hall of Fame. But this is about bigger things,” says Burns (The Civil War and Baseball). Robinson’s achievement “is baseball’s finest moment.” Burns notes the historical significance of the arrival of Robinson, a multi-sport star at UCLA. “This is the first real progress in civil rights since the Civil War,” Burns says. “Martin Luther King Jr. is a junior at Morehouse College. Truman hasn’t integrated the military. Brown vs. Board of Education hasn’t happened. There haven’t been lunch counter sit-ins. He’s the first coming

through the door.” As Robinson charts such progress, it also embraces the love story between Jackie and his wife, Rachel. Now 93, she radiates the grace and strength her husband relied upon, while sharing invaluable insights. Pointing to a baseball colleague’s comment that Robinson picked the right person to marry, “you begin to realize that: No Rachel, no Jackie,” Burns says. “Without her, Jackie probably can’t make it alone.” Rachel Robinson remembers the tribulation of spring training in Florida, where she and Jackie couldn’t stay at the team hotel or eat at certain restaurants.

Ken Burns’ film is also a love story: Rachel Robinson, 93, stood by her husband during the dark times.
“The only triumph we had in that situation was that we didn’t go hungry, and we didn’t get angry with each other. The tension wasn’t between the two of us. The tension was between us and that community. And so often, that was how we had to deal with discrimination,” she says. “I was behind him, and I wanted to be there. … But it wasn’t just Jackie Robinson. It was the whole idea of equality in America and equal opportunities for people.” Robinson faced tremendous adversity — threats and hate mail; pitchers throwing at his head; and hostility from players, managers and fans — but still became a star, putting up Hall of Fame numbers and helping lead the Dodgers to their only world championship in Brooklyn. Robinson accepted the larger responsibility of his breakthrough. (Burns contends that the hostility Robinson faced, and not just his health problems, led to his early death at age 53.) “He says, ‘Maybe I’m doing something for my race.’ Then, when it’s done, he’s got his calling in life,” Burns says. For a time, he would “be the civil rights movement and then help that movement when it really gets started (but) then watch the new militancy in the late ’60s” and see himself marginalized by some. But most African-Americans idolized Robinson. As Burns says: “On April 15, 1947, every AfricanAmerican family became Brooklyn Dodgers fans.”
Sorry, Batman. Apologies, Superman. Melissa McCarthy is the new box office boss — at least for now. The actress’ new R-rated comedy, The Boss, squeaked past Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice to win its opening weekend, according to studio estimates from comScore. It scored $23.481 million — just enough to break the two-week streak of the superhero movie, which took in $23.435 million and ran its domestic total to $296.7 million.
It’s a virtual tie for first place with less than a $50,000 difference between them, however, and The Boss and Batman v Superman could flip positions when final figures are released Monday, says comScore senior media analyst Paul Dergarabedian. Much has been made of Batman v Superman’s critical failure to launch, but few were kind to The Boss. It received poor reviews on the whole from critics — with just 18% approving at aggregate review site RottenTomatoes.com — and a C-plus grade from audiences at CinemaScore. But crowds like McCarthy’s “style and tell-it-like-it-is sensibilities. It really seems to work for her,” Dergarabedian says. Since her breakout in Bridesmaids five years ago, McCarthy has joined the ranks of Leonardo DiCaprio, Denzel Washington and

Melissa McCarthy’s comedy The Boss saw dollar signs in its first weekend.
Mark Wahlberg as one of Hollywood’s most bankable stars, Dergarabedian adds. “It’s a short list.” Batman v Superman might be running out of gas at the box of-
fice, but with nearly $800 million worldwide, “this movie has forced its way very strongly to big numbers,” Dergarabedian says. “The DC (Comics) brand seems to be alive and well, and audiences are psyched for Suicide Squad” when it arrives in theaters Aug. 5. Disney’s Zootopia was third with $14.4 million ($296 million total) — and dropped only 26% from last weekend. My Big Fat Greek Wedding 2 was fourth with $6.4 million ($46.8 million total). Rounding out the top five: Hardcore Henry, which made its debut with $5.1 million. Russian director Ilya Naishuller’s firstperson action film was “a technical tour de force” aimed at wrangling the young male gamer audience into the theater, Dergarabedian says. “Sometimes one movie has to be the trailblazer. ... It’s an interesting experiment.”

Can KU corral another No. 1-and-done today? By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com
Today, for the second time in four years, Kansas University’s basketball program is in position to land a commitment from the country’s No. 1-rated high school player. The Jayhawks — who plucked Andrew Wiggins from the top of the prospect list in 2013 — today will
learn if they’ve beaten out Michigan State and Arizona for Josh Jackson, a 6-foot-7 senior shooting guard from Prolific Prep High in Napa, Calif. Jackson, who is originally from Detroit, told reporters at Saturday’s Nike Hoop Summit in Portland that he would travel to Michigan on Sunday, inform his family members of his choice sometime today, then post
his decision on Twitter. As of Sunday night, there was no news conference planned and no details as to the time of Jackson’s Twitter announcement. If Jackson selects Kansas, he would immediately take over for Wayne Selden Jr. on the wing and be all but guaranteed 30 or more minutes a game for his one-anddone college season. For the past couple of
weeks, recruiting analysts have listed KU as the leader for Jackson. Website 247sports.com, which offers predictions on individual prospects, lists KU as having a 68 percent chance to land Jackson. Michigan State stands at 18 percent and Arizona 14 percent. “Kansas is my pick. I think he likes the small forward career of Andrew Wiggins and how well Wayne Selden
has progressed,” Reggie Rankin of ESPN.com, told USA Today. Detroit Free Press writer Joe Rexrode, who covers Michigan State, also goes with KU. “I should predict Arizona, because that’s the only thing I can’t see Jackson saying when he finally utters his choice. And I’m not very Please see JACKSON, page 3C Jackson

Spieth falters; Willett takes Masters Augusta, Ga. (ap) — Jordan Spieth couldn’t bear to watch, turning his head before another shot splashed into Rae’s Creek. Moments later, Danny Willett looked up at the large leaderboard at the 15th green and couldn’t believe what he saw. This Masters turned into a shocker Sunday, right down to the green jacket ceremony. Spieth was in Butler Cabin, just like everyone expected when he took a fiveshot lead to the back nine at Augusta National. Only he was there to present it to Willett, who seized on Spieth’s collapse with a magnificent round that made him a Masters champion. “You dream about these kind of days and things like that, but for them to happen ... it’s still mind-boggling,” Willett said. It was a nightmare for Spieth, especially the par-3 12th hole. Clinging to a oneshot lead, he put two shots

Eight-run fifth dooms Jayhawks, 14-6 By Benton Smith basmith@ljworld.com
Each hitter in the Kansas University baseball lineup knew before stepping into the batter’s box Sunday afternoon at Hoglund Ballpark the Jayhawks would have to produce at the plate to challenge sixth-ranked TCU. Although KU scored in four of the first five frames
and produced 11 hits, the Horned Frogs’ monstrous fifth inning powered the visitors to a 14-6 rout in the series finale. Freshman right-handed pitcher Blake Goldsberry pitched Kansas out of a jam in the third, when he entered for starter Jackson Goddard. However, he couldn’t reproduce that success in the fifth, pitching with a 4-3 lead, af-
ter causing some trouble for himself. Elliott Barzilli led off by doubling to left. Then Goldsberry hit Josh Watson and walked Connor Wanhanen. That sequence loaded the bases for senior Dane Steinhagen, who smacked a threerun double to the right-field gap, giving TCU a 6-4 lead and a runner on second, with no outs.
Next, TCU junior ninehole hitter Ryan Merrill blew the game open, drilling a fly ball that KU senior right fielder Joe Moroney watched clear the wall for an 8-4 Horned Frogs lead.

By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com
Saturday afternoon’s spring game provided Kansas University’s football program an opportunity to turn its attention back to the gridiron and away from the
heartbreaking news about the passing of former Jayhawk Brandon Bourbon. And while the sound of thumping pads and cheering fans gave the Jayhawks temporary relief from the pain, the sadness of losing a former teammate and friend
in such a tragic manner quickly returned to weigh on the minds of those who knew him. “It was good,” KU linebacker Joe Dineen said after Saturday’s game. “But now it’s back to the grieving process.”
Bourbon’s death, which authorities officially ruled a suicide, marked the second tragic death during Dineen’s KU career thus far. Prior to his freshman season, Dineen dealt with the Please see FOOTBALL, page 3C

Augusta, Ga. — His daymare almost over, the light fading on the rubble of his first great collapse, Jordan Spieth had one more chore to perform before he could escape the scene. You see, last year’s champion must help Sunday’s winner into his new green jacket, signifying the transition of power at the Masters. A whispered “You’re welcome” from him would have been appropriate during the ceremony this time, although it never happened. Spieth’s far too cool for that. For Danny Willet’s Masters victory was part his own determined performance and part the gift of the day that Jordan Spieth learned he was vulnerable. First, it was inside the Butler Cabin, for the CBS cameras, where Spieth sat as silent as a man in shock while the Brit Willett was asked about his wonderful life. Soundlessly then, Spieth, so fresh off the ruinous quadruple bogey on Augusta National’s shortest hole that the memory hadn’t had time to clot, slipped the jacket about Willet’s slender shoulders. Then again outside, after an interminable 15 minutes while Billy Payne thanked all in attendance — almost individually — having to sit awkwardly next to the beneficiary of his worst moment on a golf course. A quick handshake. Another fitting, this time Spieth carefully turning down the collar for the Masters champion before stepping out of the picture and applauding his own defeat. “As you can imagine,” he said afterward, “I can’t think of anybody else who may have had a tougher ceremony to experience.” After giving his regards to Willet, Spieth then returned to the subject of his role in the ceremony: “I felt that I stood up there and smiled like I should, and appreciated everybody who makes this great tournament possible.” I don’t know what was harder to watch, the quadruple bogey 7 Spieth took on the 12th hole or this ceremony that bordered on an exercise in self-flagellation. On second thought, yes, I do. His No. 12 was an Alfred Hitchcock-directed train wreck. Who knew Spieth was capable of such calamity, of such poor judgment, of such a careless swing under duress? Spieth certainly didn’t. He does now. Having made the turn Sunday with a five-stroke lead over Willett, Spieth was almost certain to become just the fourth back-to-back Masters champion ever. He was fresh off a run of four straight birdies, and looked to be matching his runaway of a year ago. A year ago, he took Augusta National apart like it was made of Lincoln Logs. And now, it returned the favor, peeling away the layers of seeming invincibility until all that was left was another Sunday victim of springtime in Augusta. He went from the unstoppable Masters force to Greg Norman in two swings of a club. The man who stood there in the Sunday twilight as the polite former champion was roiling on the inside. “Boy, you wonder about not only the tee shot on 12, but why can’t you just control the second shot?” Spieth said. “Big picture, this one will hurt. It will take awhile.”

Ames, Iowa — Shorthanded Kansas University surrendered two matches to illness forfeit and dropped the doubles points, but still managed to down Iowa State, 4-2, in a Big 12 tennis match Sunday. KU improved to 14-5 overall, 4-2 in the Big 12 and 42-3 all-time against the Cyclones. “Today was tough
mentally and physically,” Kansas coach Todd Chapman said. “We really grew up this weekend and handled adversity well. Playing a player down all weekend and today losing the doubles point put us in a hole. I thought the girls responded and competed really well to dig ourselves out of a 2-0 deficit. I am proud of the team we are becoming, and that is a group of tough competitors.” Sophomore Summer Collins was ill and was scratched from the lineup. KU had to forfeit matches at No. 3 doubles and No. 6 singles. ISU’s No. 2 doubles team of Anna BonadonnaAlejandra Galvis dropped KU’s Anastasiya Rychagova and Smith Hinton, 6-3, to claim the doubles points. That and the forfeit at No. 6 singles gave ISU a 2-0 lead. But Jayhawks Rychagova (No. 1), Janet Koch (No. 3), Nina Khmelnitckaia (No. 4) and Maria Jose Cardona (No. 5) won two-set singles matches to take the match. Kansas will travel Saturday to Kansas State.
ing a Nike Hoop Summit scrimmage on Thursday: “Jackson goes between the legs in the lane past a good defender right into a vicious dunk off two feet. Made it look way too easy.” Jackson had seven points and four rebounds in Team USA’s 101-67 victory over World Select team on Saturday. He scored 19 points in the McDonald’s All-America game and emerged as coMVP with Duke’s Frank Jackson. “Jackson is a tough and athletic forward who is a fearless competitor. He has established himself as a tenacious rebounder and he plays with a never ending motor,” reads ESPN.com’s “scouting report” of Jackson. “Comfortable and confident in both a fastpaced game or a grindit-out affair Jackson displays versatility and his productivity level is at a double-double clip. Explosive with the ball in his hands or with his vertical bounce, he displays excellent body control to match his athletic ability. He also is a great decision-maker when being pressured and plays with a solid basketball IQ which enhances his assist game. “Jackson has the toughness and quickness to be
a multiple position defender. He already utilizes his physical tools to protect the rim with his shot blocking prowess and is a high steal guy anticipating passing lanes.” His weaknesses according to the ESPN profile: “Jackson needs to become more efficient with the use of a dribble move and become consistent behind the arc without sacrificing his inside game. Currently he is shooting a poor percentage from the free throw line — a statistic that must improve as he grows in the game. He has triple-double potential if he stays in attack mode at all times and not choose to blend into the game at times.” ESPN’s bottom line: “Jackson is a versatile wing that is tough, competes and has an excellent motor and feel for the game. His explosiveness is elite and he is the ultimate finisher. When he adds a consistent perimeter jumper and as he continues to learn the game his development takes a huge leap forward.” Jackson is listed as ESPN analyst Chad Ford’s No. 1 pick in the 2017 NBA Draft. “There’s no real consensus among NBA scouts about who should be the
2017 No. 1 pick, but Jackson was the player mentioned most often among the scouts with whom I spoke,” Ford wrote on Sunday. “It doesn’t take long to see why. He’s a long, explosive wing who plays with an elite motor and competitiveness on both ends of the floor. He’s aggressive without ever being selfish. He can be a relentless driver to the basket, excellent passer (he might even be able to play a little point guard) and defender of at least three positions on the floor. “His jump shot is his biggest weakness right now. If it isn’t broken, it needs a lot of work. He can also be overly competitive at times (think Marcus Smart), which can get him and his team into trouble. But no one wants to win more than him. He’s like Michael Kidd-Gilchrist with a more refined offensive game. “He has narrowed down his school choices to Kansas, Arizona and Michigan State, with most folks here thinking he’ll likely pick Kansas. If he does, he should be a perfect fit in Lawrence, and I think he’ll have the best chance of hearing his name called first in June 2017. I don’t think there’s a player in this class with more upside.”
a game during the 2013 season. Injured in preseason camp before the start of the 2014 season, Bourbon missed his entire final season at KU before going on to Washburn in Topeka to play out his eligibility in 2015. Although he never actually played with him, Dineen developed a bond with Bourbon as the player asked to help replace him. When Dineen, a former Free State High standout who now is the heart of KU’s defense, arrived at KU, he was penciled in as a safety. But when Bourbon and fellow former KU back Taylor Cox were injured within hours of each other in camp, Dineen was asked to move to
running back, a position at which he excelled in high school. That opened the door for Dineen and Bourbon to develop a relationship that might otherwise never have happened. “During camp, when we’d stay in the hotel, I’d just go down to his room, and we’d watch film or go over plays because I didn’t know what I was doing,” Dineen said Saturday. “He showed me the ropes, and he was hard on me, but it made me better and made me work harder. “Honestly, it was motivating, too, because you want to impress guys like that.” Like so many others who have made their voices heard this weekend in the wake of Bour-
bon’s death, Dineen remembered his former mentor as one of the friendliest people he knew. “Brandon was a great dude,” he said. “There’s guys that will put on a front and act like good people, but, behind closed doors, Brandon was just the coolest guy. You could go talk to him about anything, and he would joke with you and take care of you. ... You get that news, and I didn’t even know... He just didn’t seem like that guy. I guess you never know what someone’s going through, so that caught me.” Funeral services for Bourbon will be at 7 p.m. Wednesday at the Potosi (Mo.) High School football field.
mound and got out of it,” Price said. “But once he started elevating the ball in the middle of the plate, they didn’t miss a barrel in that (fifth) inning.” After Goldsberry surrendered his fifth hit — an Austen Wade double — in an inning and twothirds of work, Price next turned to senior righty Hayden Edwards out of the bullpen. However, TCU’s potent lineup kept
right on pounding KU. Cam Warner smacked an RBI-double, and Evan Skoug demolished a tworun homer to right-center. The Frogs scored eight runs on six hits and led 11-4 before Edwards retired the final three batters of a back-breaking inning for Kansas (12-18 overall, 2-6 Big 12). “You’re trying to stay in the hunt against one of the best teams in the country
offensively,” Price said of TCU (24-7, 6-3), “and we didn’t give ourselves much of a chance with the number of walks (five in the game) and hit batters (one) that set the table for the crooked-number inning.”
Kansas softball routs Ga. Tech Kansas University made short work of its nonconference weekend opponents. The Jayhawks routed Georgia Tech, 12-1, on Sunday at Arrocha Ballpark for their third-straight runrule-shortened victory of the weekend. Kansas went 4-0 over the weekend and outscored its opponents 35-3. “What a great weekend,” Kansas coach Megan Smith said. “We showed up to play in all aspects of the game, and it was good to see the team bounce back from some things that we didn’t do well last weekend. We absolutely did those things well this weekend. Our offense was clicking, and we were taking advantage of the pitchers’ mistakes. Defensively, we were on cue, so it was really nice to see us come back this weekend and play so strong.” Andie Formby (14-5) won after allowing a run off four hits over four innings.

good at predicting these things,” Rexrode told USA Today. “I’ve heard compelling reasons in the past few weeks for both Michigan State and Kansas. I believe that at one point he was set, or close to set, on MSU. But I am going with Kansas, the choice that will please his mother.” There has been a rumor going around that Jackson’s mom, Apples Jones, prefers KU over MSU and ’Zona. She and her son were in Allen Fieldhouse for the KUTexas game on Jan. 23. Jones, who grew up in Detroit, played basketball for two years at Iola Community College in Kansas before competing a season at UTEP. So what type of a player is Jackson, who averaged 26.9 points, 13.1 rebounds and 6.3 assists per game last season at Prolific Prep? “Has a KG motor,” ESPN analyst Fran Fraschilla tweeted, comparing Jackson’s energy on the court to that of Kevin Garnett.

sudden death of friend and foe Andre Maloney, who collapsed on the field during a high school game and died a few days later. In tribute, Dineen requested to wear Maloney’s No. 29 to honor the former Shawnee Mission West standout. Seniors J.J. Jolaoso and Marnez Ogletree both currently wear Bourbon’s No. 25, but neither Jayhawk played with him. Just 27 players on KU’s current roster suited up alongside Bourbon, and only 13 were on the roster the last time the former KU running back played in

KANSAS CITY ROYALS PLAYERS CELEBRATE with teammate Terrance Gore, bottom right, after he scored the winning run during the 10th inning of a 4-3 victory over the Twins on Sunday in Kansas City, Mo.
Gore scores on WP in 10th; KC tops Twins Kansas City, Mo. (ap) — The Kansas City Royals did not need a hit to score the winning run Sunday. It wasn’t about how they reached base, just what they did once they got there. Speedy pinch runner Terrance Gore streaked home on a wild pitch with two outs in the 10th inning, scoring with a headfirst slide to lift the Royals over the winless Minnesota Twins 4-3. The World Series champion Royals rallied for two runs in the ninth to tie it, then dropped the Twins to 0-6. This is Minnesota’s worst start since the Washington Senators moved to the Twin Cities in 1961. “People wonder why we had (Gore) on our roster. That’s why,” Royals manager Ned Yost said. Christian Colon drew a leadoff walk in the 10th from Trevor May (0-1). Gore then made his first appearance of the season, running for Colon, and dashed to third on May’s throwing error on a pickoff attempt. May retired the next two batters and issued a walk. With a 1-2 count on Lorenzo Cain, May threw a breaking ball that bounced off catcher John Ryan Murphy’s chest protector and skittered to the right side of the plate. “That’s what speed does,” Gore said. “I saw it roll out a little bit and then roll a little more. I said I’ve got a shot at this one and I was going for it.” Mike Moustakas was on second base when Gore made his mad dash home.

into the water and made a quadruple-bogey 7, falling three shots behind and never catching up. Instead of making history with another wireto-wire victory, he joined a sad list of players who threw the Masters away. “Big picture? This one will hurt,” Spieth said. It was a comeback that ranks among the most unlikely in the 80 years of the Masters on so many levels. Willett wasn’t even sure he would play this year because his wife was due — on Sunday, no less

“He’s so fast that anything that scoots away like that, he’s going to make it there,” Moustakas said. “I was happy he ended up going. I think he hesitated for a split second.

— with their first child. She gave birth to Zachariah James on March 30, sending him on his amazing journey to his first major. “We talk about fate, talk about everything else that goes with it,” Willett said. “It’s just a crazy, crazy week.” He became the first player from England in a green jacket since Nick Faldo in 1996, and the parallels are bizarre. Faldo shot a bogey-free 67 and overcame a six-shot deficit when Greg Norman collapsed around Amen Corner. Willett also closed with a 5-under 67, with no bogeys on his card, to match the best score of the weekend.

MAJOR-LEAGUE ROUNDUP
Story homers, Rocks win The Associated Press
National League Rockies 6, Padres 3 Denver — Rookie Trevor Story capped his amazing first week in the majors by hitting his seventh home run, helping Colorado beat San Diego on Sunday. Story’s homer was one of five solo shots by the Rockies. Carlos Gonzalez went deep twice, and Nolan Arenado and Ryan Raburn also connected for Colorado, which salvaged the finale of its three-game series. Story, whose home run streak ended Friday night after he had become the first player in the majors to homer in the first four games of his career, sent a pitch from Brandon Maurer 425 feet into the left field bleachers leading off the bottom of the eighth. The shortstop now has 12 RBIs through six games.

Giants 9, Dodgers 6 San Francisco — Joe Panik hit a tiebreaking two-run double in the sixth inning, and San Francisco homered three times to overcome an early five-run deficit and beat Los Angeles. Buster Posey, Brandon Belt and Angel Pagan all homered as the Giants rallied after falling behind 5-0 before they even came up to bat. San Francisco has 14 homers in the opening week of the season, and the Giants have hit at least one homer in the first seven games for the first time since at least 1913. Johnny Cueto (2-0) settled down after the rough first and earned the win in his home debut for the Giants, allowing six runs and 10 hits in seven innings.

Phillies 5, Mets 2 New York — Odubel Herrera hit a two-run homer off Matt Harvey in the first appearance at Citi Field for the Mets ace since he failed to close out Game 5 of last year’s World Series, and Philadelphia beat New York. Philadelphia won the last two games of the three-game series after an 0-4 start. The Phillies already have more wins at Citi Field this season than last, when they went 1-8. Jeremy Hellickson (1-0) held the Mets hitless until Yoenis Cespedes lined an opposite-field single to right in the fourth, and kept them scoreless until Cespedes chased him with a two-run homer in the sixth that cut Philadelphia’s lead to 3-2.

American League Orioles 5, Rays 3 Baltimore — Manny Machado went 4-for-4 with a two-run homer, and Baltimore beat Tampa Bay to remain the only undefeated team in the majors. The 5-0 start matches the 1970 team for the best in Orioles history. After sweeping Minnesota in three games to open the season, Baltimore completed the homestand by taking two from Tampa Bay in a rain-abbreviated series. Vance Worley gave up three runs over 42⁄3 innings in his Orioles debut, and the bullpen blanked the Rays on one hit the rest of the way. Brad Brach (1-0) entered in the fifth, and Zach Britton worked a perfect ninth for his second save.
