KU chancellor urges graduates to take on ‘world’s grand challenges’

T

oday’s society is full of complicated, and sometimes uncomfortable, issues, Kansas University Chancellor Bernadette Gray-Little told graduates during KU’s 144th commencement ceremony on Sunday.

She said earning a degree may make a KU alumnus but that graduating with a desire to change the world is what makes a Jayhawk.

“As you leave this place, use the knowledge and perspective you acquired at KU to address the world’s grand challenges,” Gray-Little said. “Dedicate yourself to not only doing well, but doing good.”

The thousands of graduates and loved ones attending Sunday’s commencement ceremony at Memorial Stadium enjoyed sunny skies, temperatures in the mid-60s and a celebratory atmosphere.

The event included graduates’ traditional march through the Campanile and down the hill into the stadium, mass conferrals of degrees by each KU school, recognition of student award winners and the hoodings of two honorary degree recipients, both KU alumni.

Part of 19th Street will soon shut down for the summer, pending City Commission approval Tuesday of an approximately $685,000 project to reconstruct the 19th Street and Ousdahl Road intersection.

Work on Kansas University’s new Central District project is well underway, and a main entrance to the area will be off 19th at Ousdahl. The stretch of 19th Street from Iowa Street to Naismith Drive, includCITY ing the Ousdahl in- COMMISSION tersection, is in poor shape, public works officials have said.

“The intersection… is a key component to the Central District improvements, 19th street and neighborhood access,” Public Works Director Charles Soules wrote in a memo to commissioners.

KU is paying to extend Ousdahl north of 19th Street and install a traffic signal at the intersection.

The city will be responsible for financing the remainder of it. City commissioners will vote Tuesday on awarding a bid for the project to R.D. Johnson Excavating Co. for $685,629.

Closure of the intersection was slated for any time after KU commencement, which was Sunday.

It will remain inaccessible until classes resume in August. More work, on the southern portion of Ousdahl Road, will be done in August and September.

In March, commissioners approved a $43,000 agreement with an engineering firm for the final design of the 19th and Ousdahl intersection.

In an effort to prevent drivers cutting through the residential neighborhood south of 19th Street, vehicles traveling on Ousdahl will only be able to make a right or left turn onto 19th Street.

BRIEFLY 2 hurt in shooting at graduation Augusta — Authorities say two people have been wounded at a high school graduation ceremony in southern Kansas after a man with a concealed weapon permit adjusted a sock he had stuffed a pistol into.

Augusta Police Chief Tyler Brewer said Sunday afternoon that the shooting was accidental and described it as a “knucklehead situation.” The bullet went through the man’s foot and traveled about another 50 feet before striking a woman in her calf. The woman has been released from a Wichita hospital, while the man has been admitted with an injury that’s not lifethreatening.

Brewer says the Augusta High School commencement continued after the shooting, with most people unaware of what happened. Brewer says he plans to present the case to prosecutors because it’s illegal to carry a firearm on school grounds.

Fugitive’s medical bills lead to trial Topeka — The fight over a Colorado fugitive’s medical bills is headed for a trial in Kansas.

The Kansas Court of Appeal found on Friday that it was wrong to rule without a trial that Kansas’ Shawnee County, not Topeka, is responsible for $40,000 in medical bills for Jesse Dimmick.

Dimmick was fleeing from police in a stolen minivan in 2009 when Kansas officers used stop sticks to deflate the tires. He then forced his way into a nearby home, where a couple befriended him. They escaped when he fell asleep.

Dimmick was shot and wounded during his arrest.

Dimmick has been convicted in Kansas of kidnapping and in Colorado of a deadly stabbing that led up to the chase.

Mental health advocates question drug bill

By Melissa Hellmann Associated Press

Topeka — Mental health advocates are raising concerns about a bill passed by Kansas lawmakers that would require doctors to try cheaper drugs before more expensive ones for Medicaid recipients, but the bill’s backers say the concerns are overblown.

The process, called step therapy, is common in many private and public health insurance plans.

It was key to resolving budget issues because it would reduce the state’s cost of providing health care for poor residents by nearly $11 million a year.

Gov. Sam Brownback is expected to sign the bill today.

Mental health advocates asked that drugs used to treat mental illnesses be specifically exempted on the grounds that the process of trial and error with them would have more severe consequences, including a greater risk of hospitalization and suicide, than with drugs that treat other conditions.

People have different responses and tolerance levels with psychiatric

“

Individuals and their prescribers need to have the greatest degree of flexibility to ensure a good match for patients.”

— Rick Cagan, executive director of the Kansas affiliate of the National Alliance on Mental Illness drugs, said Rick Cagan, executive director of the Kansas affiliate of the National Alliance on Mental Illness.

“Individuals and their prescribers need to have the greatest degree of flexibility to ensure a good match for patients,” Cagan said. “We don’t know as much about how the brain responds to this whole kind of cadre of medications ... as we do with cardiac and other kinds of medications.”

But lawmakers who supported the bill say adequate safeguards are in place and mental health advocates want an unfair exemption from a common practice that many insured patients face.

“They just want to be left totally outside so that they don’t have to do anything like the rest of

the world has to do,” said Republican Sen. Jim Denning, of Overland Park.

“If a new patient comes into the system, they will be given the right drug or combination of drugs to keep them as healthy and as well as we can.”

One issue is how much protection is offered by an oversight group set up to provide input from mental health clinical professionals in the creation of mental health drug regulations.

Lawmakers assured their colleagues during debates in both chambers that mental health patients would be safeguarded by a measure passed last year. The law allows insurance companies to require prior authorization for certain mental health drugs for Medicaid recipients, but it also created a ninemember committee of mental health practitioners and pharmacists who offer recommendations to a state drug review board.

The board decides whether to accept the committee’s recommendations on prescription drug use. For example, the committee recently reviewed dosing limits

to KU’s Central District, public works officials are suggesting 19th from Iowa to Naismith be reconstructed soon after the intersection project.

The city is planning three lanes for the halfmile stretch, one lane in each direction plus a center turning lane. Under the proposed design, there would be dedicated bike lanes in each direction, and an 8-foot sidewalk would be installed on the north side of the street. There is already a sidewalk on the south side.

At Iowa Street, 19th would be widened to include more turning lanes.

Completion of that project, which is included in projects funded with the infrastructure sales tax, is expected sometime in 2017 or 2018.

In other business, commissioners will: l Receive a report on new benches being installed at bus stops around Lawrence.

The locations receiving benches are: 3215 Ousdahl Road; 31st Street at Cottonwood Inc.; Dillons near 23rd Street and Naismith Drive; Free State High School; 15th Street and Haskell Avenue;

for children’s antipsychotics.

The committee was created to address safety issues, but Amy Campbell, lobbyist for the Kansas Mental Health Coalition, worries that under this year’s bill the committee will be asked to recommend blocking access to medication because of cost. The issue is worsened for mental health patients because new anti-psychotic drugs tend to be expensive, she said.

Another concern is whether mental health patients will be able to navigate administrative hurdles if they’re turned away from a pharmacy because the drug their doctor ordered was too expensive, Campbell said.

“For someone who doesn’t own their own transportation, who may or may not have strong cognitive abilities ... our biggest fear is that they will walk out of the pharmacy and they don’t come back for the adjustments to be made,” she said.

Some psychiatrists are also concerned that step therapy will pose a hassle for doctors, who will have to spend more time justifying treatment.

Fourth and Maine streets; 20th and Louisiana streets at Lawrence High School; Ninth and Ohio streets; and 31st Street and Lawrence Avenue at First Step House.

The transit system chose the locations after evaluating passenger boardings and safety concerns. l Vote on adding a crossing guard to the intersection of Sixth Street and Schwarz Road starting in the 2016-17 school year.

Ron May, director of administrative services for Lawrence schools, sent a request in October to the city for a new crossing guard. Starting next school year, a boundary change will go into effect, meaning students north of Sixth Street and west of Kasold Drive will attend Sunset Hill Elementary. It’s estimated 35 to 50 students will use the intersection.

Lawrence’s Traffic Safety Commission unanimously recommended in March that a new crossing guard be added to Sixth and Schwarz. The addition will cost approximately $5,500, which is not budgeted for 2016.

Students to help build school in Haiti

After a group of teenagers spent almost a year raising money toward a summer trip, coming weeks will see them shoveling dirt, mixing cement and making bricks in a village in Haiti.

The students’ labor will go toward construction of a the village’s first school.

The project is part of the international volunteer

program buildOn, which will help to sustain the school. Through those combined efforts, the group of nine students hope to leave the villagers with much more than just a building.

“It’s not just us going in and building them a school,” said 15-year-old Maddy Johnson, who helped organize the student-led effort. “The village has been working Please see HAITI, page 4A

Smithsonian exhibit prompts museum renovations

By Elvyn Jones Twitter: @ElvynJ

Ben Terwilliger has a plan in case a disaster ever threatens downtown Eudora.

The executive director of the Eudora Area Historical Society and curator of the Eudora Community Museum said his plan involves what he views as the three most important artifacts housed in the museum. Those artifacts are the deed Shawnee Tribe member Paschal Fish signed that made land that was to become Eudora available to German immigrants; the only known photograph — actually a tintype — of his daughter and the town’s namesake Eudora Fish; and the original plat of Eudora.

“Those are the big-three very

important items,” he said. “Those three things if we had nothing else would justify us being here.

If there’s ever a fire here or a tornado headed this way, those are the three things I’m going to run in and save first.”

It could be argued the most important historical artifact is the museum itself, now on the Kansas Register of Historic Places. Built in the 1870s as the tin shop of German immigrant John Seybold, the building was later the home of hardware stores and the town’s post office. Its last commercial use was as the plumbing and electrical supply business of Fred Trefz.

It fell into disrepair after his death, although his granddaughter Pam Please see MUSEUM, page 5A

just as hard as we have to get prepared for us coming: they signed contracts, they donated the land, they started to prepare it.”

The group will travel to Haiti next month along with an adult sponsor, Barb Nitz, who teaches English at Southwest Middle School. Nitz had many of the students in her class at Southwest, and said she remembers them as a unique group.

SEVERAL STUDENTS SPENT THE PAST YEAR RAISING MONEY to help build and maintain a school in Haiti.

Front row: Maddy Johnson and Anna Bial. people they’re trying to help,” Johnson said. “So their goals are noble, but it doesn’t always end up the way they want it to.”

The students raised about $38,500 in all for the project. Of that amount, $24,000 will go toward construction and programming at the school. The rest will cover the students’ travel expenses. Over the past year, the students held garage sales, bake

sales and coffee sales, as well as collected personal donations. Most of the money raised was done in small increments, Johnson said.

“We didn’t have anyone that came and gave us $1,000 or a couple thousand,” Johnson explained. “A lot of it was like teachers donating $10, friends giving us $5, just a lot of small things that really added up.”

Despite their

enthusiasm about the project, Nitz said when the students came to her with the idea, she was worried they didn’t realize how difficult it would be to raise so much money. Now that they’ve reached their goal, Nitz said she thinks their effort over the past year will be integral to the experience.

“I think the raising of the money and then actually going to see how

it’s going to come together and helping in that process is going to be so meaningful to those kids,” Nitz said.

While in Haiti, the group will stay in homes of different village members as they work on building the school.

Once the students leave, staff with the buildOn

program will continue to work with villagers until the school is completed.

Claire Walther, Lawrence High School sophomore, said she is looking forward to working closely with the villagers.

“It’s going to be a really immersive experience of sitting in their house, cooking meals with them and just learning about these people,” Walther said. “We have such different lives.”

The group will leave for Haiti on June 23 and will be there for about 10 days to prepare materials and build the foundation of the school.

Staab undertook extensive repairs to its storefront before donating the building to the historical society, Terwilliger said.

After a two-year renovation effort requiring 4,000 hours of volunteer labor, the museum opened in March 2015.

The opening didn’t mark the end of the building’s renovation, and even as Terwilliger spoke last week, the sound of construction could be heard on the building’s now unused second floor.

On Wednesday, the Douglas County Commission contributed to that continuing effort with the approval of an $89,000 Cultural and Natural Heritage Conservation Grant.

The grant money will do away with the need to take a side exit, climb down a set of concrete steps, scale an embankment and then climb a second set of wooden steps to get to the upper floor.

The plan is to replace that circuitous route with a building extension housing a stairway and a platform lift, Terwilliger said.

The second floor figures prominently in another piece of recent news. The Kansas Humanities Council has chosen the museum to be one of six Kansas sites to host a traveling Smithsonian exhibit next year.

The show called “Water/Ways” fits naturally with Eudora because of its location at the confluence of the Wakarusa and Kansas rivers, Terwilliger said.

With the exhibition’s promise — the Lumberyard Arts Center in Baldwin City attracted 4,000 visitors when it hosted a 2013 Smithsonian exhibit — there is also pressure.

A PHOTO OF ONE OF THE EARLY FAMILIES that lived in Eudora is just one of many historic items included in the museum.

The Eudora show will be the opening stop next June of the “Water/ Ways” exhibit’s tour of Kansas. There’s no room for the exhibit on the first floor, already filled with artifacts, display cases, bookcases and files.

There is more to the challenge of opening the second floor than access.

It’s little changed from how the historical society found it. Scattered patches of plaster cling to exposed limestone and brick exterior walls, the roof support structure is visible overhead, and the floor is barely discernible from years of grime and neglect.

“Believe it or not, we have less work to do up here than we did downstairs,” Terwilliger said as Eudora Historical Society Vice President Benny Dean nodded in agreement.

The first-floor renovation track record gives Terwilliger confidence the access and second-floor improvements would be completed in time for the Smithsonian show.

“Hopefully, it’s finished this summer,” he said. “We have to get it done by next summer for the Smithsonian exhibit.

We work well with deadlines.”

they will credit Dean for his dedication to the project — all those except Dean, who says he was only one of many volunteers. To prove his point, he nods toward Bill Gordon, who was working with him last week to install ceiling joist so a new Sheetrock ceiling could be hung on the second floor. Gordon was at his side during most hours he worked at the building and continues to provide invaluable professional masonry skills in the building’s second-floor renovation, Dean said.

“He’s going to plaster the walls,” he said. “That will look more authentic than Sheetrock.”

As they took a break from their labors, Dean and Gordon remembered frequenting Trefz’s shop.

He was a “staple” in the town, with an unusual business model, Gordon said.

“It was hard to get a bill from him,” he said, adding Trefz would frequently write off bills of those in need.

It’s their desire to preserve those kinds of community memories that is behind their dedication to the museum, Dean and Gordon said.

Judging by the number of first-year visitors, the museum has helped residents connect with family and community roots.

The museum had 2,000 visitors in its first year, Terwilliger said. That’s a marked increase from past years when the museum was located in two schools the Eudora school district left behind, and Terwilliger admits that curiosity about the new site may have inflated those first-year numbers. More than half of those visitors requested using museum material to research family genealogy, he said.

There is another increase that hints at a hike in community interest, Terwilliger said.

“Artifact submissions have really increased in the last year,” he said.

“More and more people are bringing things in.

The good thing about that is we get to be more selective. We have an artifact policy now. We want artifacts to tell the story of Eudora and the Eudora area.”

Fern Long, who was one of the co-founders of the historical society in 1980, said a permanent museum home was a longtime goal of the society.

“I think it’s wonderful,” said Long, who will celebrate her 101st birthday next week. “That is what we always wanted.”

Kansas City, Mo. (ap) — Recent research from the University of Missouri-Kansas City suggests smiling may make people appear younger and thinner.

When you smile, other people tend to see you as younger than if you are staring back with a neutral expression or frown. If you frown, you look heavier, according to two pieces of research from the University of Missouri-Kansas City’s psychology department and the lab of professor Seung-Lark Lim. The research, which was published in the March 30 edition of the

journal PLOS ONE, was led by 25-year-old Norah Hass, a third-year psychology doctoral student.

In another recent study, UMKC undergraduate psychology student Trent D. Weston, who has since graduated, was the lead author on work published in the journal Frontiers of Psychology. Weston also asked college students to judge the weight of people based on hundreds of randomized faces that flashed on a computer screen.

Some faces looked sad and other had neutral expressions.

The sad faces tended to be judged as heavier, according to the study.

Go past boss to deal with complaining coworker Dear Annie: I have a co-worker who often shows up late, constantly complains, spends most of his time reading Facebook posts aloud or trying to chat with the rest of the people in our department and generally wastes his time when he’s supposed to be working.

Our department works on a very strict deadline, and he often finds himself in a time crunch and asks the rest of us to do his work for him. When we say no, he either calls our boss to complain that we ‘’aren’t helping’’ or tries to scare us by saying that it’s ‘’everyone’s fault if we miss deadline.’’

Several co-workers have tried to explain this to our boss, but this guy always has some excuse that our boss is more than willing to believe. I am pretty

sure it’s because they were friends before our boss was promoted. But this co-worker is making our boss look bad, along with the rest of us. I think our boss is truly blind to the fact that this guy barely does his job, and produces subpar work.

It bothers me that this whiner is dragging the rest of the department down. What should I do? — Confused and Frustrated Dear Confused: We

‘Mike & Molly’ ends on odd note What happens to a sitcom’s story when cancellation suddenly arrives? “Mike & Molly” (7 p.m., CBS, TV-14) confronts the problem of uncertainty as well as can be expected. Mike and Carl seek answers from a psychic, and Molly consults a higher power as Peggy takes her to church. A second episode (7:30 p.m., TV-14) wraps things up in a more conventional manner as the gang glances back with a time-honored clip show.

Fish ( J a d a Pinkett Smith) returns on “Gotham” (7 p.m., Fox, TV14). This highly digitalized fantasy is much better appreciated as a visual spectacle than a story.

You have to admire its dark deco skyline. At the same time, the brooding atmosphere reflects an adolescent’s view of a police potboiler. The grim and lawless city serves as a mere backdrop to one fantastic character after another. There is no thought given to what the average Gotham resident does to survive.

It takes a little more empathy to appreciate drama woven from everyday life. These shiny digital surfaces seem perfectly suited to a pop culture that has abandoned books for comic books.

Speaking of books, readers of Charles Dickens might appreciate the “Independent Lens” (9 p.m., PBS, TV-14, check local listings) documentary “Dogtown Redemption.” The film follows three street people who work as scavengers, scouring the streets of Oakland, California, for metal, bottles and cans.

Pushing their enormous loads on borrowed shopping carts, they can seem like visions from another century or a Third World country. We meet the owner of the recycling center who sees them as a link to his grandparents’ immigrant story as well as neighbors who think of them as no better than nuisances and thieves.

We learn the story of how each scavenger survives on the streets and how they arrived, or fell, to their present station.

Characters include a former minister struggling with his past and a rebellious Korean immigrant woman who spent the better part of the 1980s as a drummer in a punk polka band.

She now spends her days recycling the trash that her neighbors unconsciously discard.

Tonight’s other highlights

Pink arrives to advise the

A 2044 confrontation with Deacon on “12 Monkeys” (8 p.m., Syfy, TV-14).

A foundling child sports a tattoo just like Jane’s on “Blindspot” (9 p.m., NBC, TV14).

A mystery woman comes to Ben’s rescue on “TURN: Washington’s Spies” (9 p.m., AMC, TV-14).

think your boss overlooks this guy’s ineptitude because it’s easier than dealing with the situation and possibly losing a friend. But it damages the company, not to mention morale.

If there is a human resources department or your boss has an immediate supervisor, this is where you should direct your complaints.

Don’t criticize your coworker’s personality.

Simply say that you are concerned deadlines will be missed.

JACQUELINE BIGAR’S STARS

For Monday, May 16: This year your imagination and intellect prove to be your best traits, especially when faced with challenges. You can solve nearly any problem you encounter. Refuse to accept “no” as an answer.

If you are single, romance flourishes for those who are interested in the pursuit of love. If you are attached, the two of you might be considering making a new commitment, which could involve anything from a new interest to a new addition.

The stars show the kind of day you’ll have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult Aries (March 21-April 19) If you opt to take a stand, it will be met appropriately and with shared concern. Tonight: Go along with a loved one’s idea.

Taurus (April 20-May 20) You are full of ideas, especially when you wake up.

Others add their personal touches.

Tonight: In the limelight.

Gemini (May 21-June 20) By the afternoon, you will be more creative and open to suggestions. Tonight: Act as if there were no tomorrow.

Cancer (June 21-July 22) Listen to news and maintain a high profile. Communication soars in the morning. Tonight: Say little.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) Your ideas might not be as well-received as you would like

to pay back one in order to borrow again. And guess what? It worked.

We’ve had every loan (we don’t charge interest) repaid and would not hesitate to let our children borrow again.

When my husband went back to college for a post-doctorate, we found ourselves with not quite enough money to make it to graduation. His dad loaned us $5,000, and as soon as my husband started work, we began paying Dad back. After the entire amount had been repaid, Dad’s wife said of all the adult kids, we were the only ones who had ever done so.

Tax fairness One taxpayer’s battle raises questions about the fairness of the Kansas system for tax appeals.

A

tax dispute between the state of Kansas and Gene Bicknell involves more than whether the state owes the retired businessman a $50 million tax refund. It’s a matter of due process and fair play.

Bicknell, who opened his first Pizza Hut in Pittsburg in 1962, later founded National Pizza Co., which grew into the nation’s largest franchiser of Pizza Hut restaurants. He also was prominent in the Kansas Republican Party and sought the GOP nomination for governor in 1986 and 1994.

In the 1990s, Bicknell bought a home in Florida, and, in 2003, he contends he retired and moved to Florida. However, he retained ownership of the Kansasbased National Pizza Co. until 2006.

That is the crux of the dispute. For 2005 and 2006, Bicknell filed non-resident income tax returns in Kansas. Bicknell points to the fact that he not only had moved to Florida, but also had registered to vote, registered his car, opened bank accounts and obtained a driver’s license in Florida. Nonetheless, the Kansas Department of Revenue contends he was still a Kansas resident and was required to pay tax on his National Pizza Co. income at the rate for Kansas residents.

Bicknell appealed that decision to the governor-appointed Board of Tax Appeals, which sided with the state.

He then took his case to the Kansas Court of Appeals, which said the BOTA had erred. The case went back to the BOTA, which appealed the decision to the Kansas Supreme Court, which has not ruled in the case.

In the meantime, legislative actions that could affect Bicknell’s case were underway. Last year, a law was passed that would allow Kansas taxpayers to appeal a BOTA decision in district court, where they could have a full “de novo” trial at which they could present evidence and testimony to support their cases. That seems only fair.

This year, however, the House sought to pull back that provision and make it apply only to property tax appeals, not appeals involving income or other taxes.

Sen. Tom Holland, D-Baldwin City, who served on the conference committee that produced the final version of the bill, said that change was rejected after stiff resistance from the Senate so the law would retain the language allowing income tax cases to be appealed in district court.

Bicknell blames the last-minute efforts to change this bill on Gov. Brownback and claims the governor may veto the bill because it does not change the appeals provision. The governor has not commented on the situation.

It would not be a particularly convenient time for the state to have to pay out a $50 million tax refund, but Bicknell deserves a fair decision in this case. If Bicknell owes the tax, he should pay it, but it’s simply not right for the state to use legislative maneuvering to try to usurp the right of Bicknell or other Kansas taxpayers to argue their cases in district court.

Mexicans try to debunk Trump attacks Mexicans have silently begun a campaign to debunk presumptive Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump’s bigotry, xenophobia and economic isolationism in an area where he is most vulnerable: the realm of accurate facts and figures.

To confront Trump’s daily Mexico-bashing, the Mexican government will launch a U.S. public-relations campaign in early June. Meantime, a group of Mexican-American businesspeople is launching a lobbying group named American Mexico Public Affairs Committee, modeled after the pro-Israel AIPAC and other influential Washington lobbying groups. The new group has already started putting out facts and figures on social media.

“The best way to respond to xenophobic, or racist, or uninformed positions is with information, not with adjectives,” Mexican Foreign Minister Claudia Ruiz Massieu told me in a recent interview.

To be sure, Mexico President Enrique Peña Nieto, who has low popularity rates because of his poor handling of corruption and humanrights scandals, is hardly in a position to personally lead the charge against Trump.

If Peña Nieto did that, he would lose badly. Trump would shower the Mexican president with insults, calling him a moron who hasn’t been able to keep drug baron Joaquin “El Chapo” Guzman from escaping from prison and who has yet to give a good explanation for his government’s dubious in-

Andres Oppenheimer aoppenheimer@miamiherald.com

“

The privately run American Mexico Public Affairs Committee, which was registered in Texas on March 18, will seek to counter Trump’s concocted ‘facts’ about Mexico with real figures from reliable U.S. sources.” vestigation into the 2014 disappearance of 43 students in the state of Guerrero.

Peña Nieto took a shot at Trump on March 8, when he said the U.S. presidential hopeful’s rhetoric is reminiscent of that of Hitler and Mussolini, but the Mexican leader has remained largely silent on the issue for months.

Now, I’m told by diplomatic sources, Peña Nieto has hired the WPP and Burson-Marsteller publicrelations firms to design and execute a PR strategy in the U.S. It will include mass advertising and frequent responses to Trump’s attacks from Mexico’s new ambassador to Washington, Carlos Sada, who took office

Thursday.

“The strategy will be to have higher visibility,” Sada says. “The idea is to not allow ourselves to become anybody’s punching bag for not having a mechanism to react to attacks.”

The privately run American Mexico Public Affairs Committee, which was registered in Texas on March 18, will seek to counter Trump’s concocted “facts” about Mexico with real figures from reliable U.S. sources. The group’s Twitter account, @AMxPAC, started putting out tweets in late April.

Arturo Sarukhan, a Mexican former ambassador to the United States and informal adviser to the PAC, told me that the group was founded by Mexican-American business people and that it receives “not one cent from the Mexican government or state or local governments.”

Sarukhan added that the group “is in the process of forming a non-partisan Super PAC to challenge or support both Democrats and Republicans, depending on their positions related to the Mexico-U.S. agenda.”

He added, “Its objective is to send a signal there will be a cost to using Mexico and the Mexican diaspora as a political piñata.”

AMPAC and the Mexican government will counter Trump’s misleading claims that there is an avalanche of Mexican migrants coming into the United States, citing U.S. Census figures showing that the number of undocumented Mexicans entering

the country has actually declined substantially since 2008.

To counter Trump’s claim in his inaugural campaign speech that most Mexican migrants are “bad people” and “rapists,” AMPAC tweeted that “Mexican immigrants generate $17 billion annually,” alongside a chart with Pew Research Center figures showing the details.

Responding to Trump’s almost daily accusations that Mexico is “killing us” in trade, the group tweeted that “40 percent of the content of Mexican exports to the U.S. was originally manufactured in the United States” — a fact that Trump conveniently fails to mention in his speeches.

Also, the group tweeted U.S. figures showing that U.S. exports to Mexico are twice as much as to China, and that Mexico ranks among the top three export markets for 33 U.S. states.

My opinion: To be sure, the AMPAC Twitter site is still rudimentary, and we will have to wait until June to see whether the government-paid WPP and BursonMarsteller campaign will be something more than a big money-maker for the PR firms.

But it was time for Mexico and Mexicans to wake up and do something to stop being Trump’s “punching bag.” Trump has gotten away for too long with fabricated or misleading statistics, without being confronted by Mexicans with more reliable facts and figures.

Housing questions To the editor: The Journal-World series on affordable housing raises some interesting questions.

1) What percentage of housing needs to be affordable for Lawrence to have an acceptable balance?

2) Why such a large jump from 10 percent affordable housing to 35 percent affordable housing for 99-unit or larger developments? What about a more granular approach or formula?

3) I would be interested in a published economic analysis from a developer’s point of view of what “numbers make sense” as one developer described in the May 8 article.

Tom Miller, Lawrence

Right to exist To the editor: We came to America as emigrants, fed up with hierarchy and distrust of those who set themselves up as authorities. If we’re told to think in a certain way, there is a backlash.

Science presents us with a time-delayed, abstract and often statistical picture of the risks of global warming that make it difficult to achieve a sense of urgency.

Deep down, I think we know that decades of deregulated capitalism have led to environmental damage on a scale that threatens the very prosperity it is meant to generate.

For the last 30 years, the ideology of the unfettered marketplace has so dominated politics that most of us can scarcely imagine an alternative way of organizing our affairs.

Individuals who try are dismissed as being out of touch or socialists.

Blind faith in the marketplace leads people to believe they are free to consume lim-

itless fossil fuels and, if the government acts to restrict them, it is restricting freedom. If we would push Congress for it, a carbon fee and dividend could address the issue.

Have we become a shortsighted people so intent on comfort that we just ignore the problem? The right to exist on a planet that is sustainable is more fundamental than the right to consume. Edmund Burke saw society and civilization as a partnership between those who are living, those who are dead and those who are to be born. Our descendants, however skilled, will not be able to cope with the consequences of climate change.

Tony Schmidt, Lawrence

Science conspiracy?

To the editor: Thank God that Ken Meyer has exposed the conspiracy of scientists greedy to keep their well-paying jobs or promote an outside agenda while forcing us to believe their fraudulent “religion.”

It doesn’t take much thinking to see that scientists are nefarious plotters. Disease from germs? Nonsense! It’s God’s will or the Evil Eye. The Earth orbits the Sun? Absurd! Mankind is the center of the universe.

People related to animals? Immoral! People have souls and are created in God’s image.

Climate change? My God wouldn’t do that!

Some scientists even believe that there is a conspiracy of conservatives and the GOP greedy to keep their well-paying jobs or promote an outside agenda while forcing us to believe their fraudulent “religion.” Evil!

Scientists only create monsters. Arise conservatives! Grab your pitchforks! Bring morality back to the world. It’s time to call scientists what they really are: witches!

Eric Smith, Lawrence

From the Lawrence Daily Journal-World for May 16, 1916: “The Meryears chants and Farmago ers’ Association IN 1916 recommended at their noon meeting today that the people of Lawrence follow the example of other cities and set the time pieces an hour ahead during the summer months. An additional hour of sunlight after work was offered in support of such action.

The business men do not intend to put this change of time into practice unless the other organizations and industries of the city are also willing.”

“Objection to the hauling of freight by the interurban in daylight hours on Locust street was voiced by North Lawrence residents at the city commission meeting today. … Henry Weingartner pointed out to the commission that while the proposed franchise forbids daytime hauling of freight on Massachusetts and Pinckney streets, nothing is said about day freight service on Locust street. A large number of school children, Mr. Weingartner said, live south of the interurban track, which they must cross on their way to school.”

“At the request of Prof. J. N. Van der Vries the boy scouts of Lawrence will make a count of the elm trees within the city limits. Professor Van der Vries is anxious to have the city secure a power sprayer and to go after the elm tree pests just as was done in Ottawa, and he hopes to show by figures regarding the number of trees that the city can afford to make the purchase and that the sprayer will pay for itself in a short time.”

More than 1,000 awarded since 9/11 @tvandenbrook USA TODAY

WASHINGTON Citations for two Navy Crosses and more than 100 Silver Star medals awarded secretly to Navy SEALs and a Marine for “extraordinary heroism” in the past 15 years reflect the fierce battles that have been fought in Iraq and Afghanistan, according to records obtained by USA TODAY. The Navy decorated the Marine for saving the lives of civilians in Benghazi in September 2012. Several SEALs earned theirs for intense combat in Ramadi, others for rescuing hostages in Afghanistan. The Navy also honored the

The secret Navy Crosses and Silver Stars are among those under review, along with a similar number issued for the Army’s classified

United, one of the most famed and successful teams in the world, was due to host Bournemouth to conclude its season. After a package described as “incredibly lifelike” by police was discovered — it included a taped device made up of a cellphone and protruding wires — the game was postponed and fans ordered out of the 75,635-seat venue.

“It is outrageous this situation arose, and a full inquiry is required to urgently find out how this happened, why it happened and who will be held accountable,” Manchester police and crime commissioner Tony Lloyd said in a statement. “This fiasco caused massive inconvenience to supporters who had come from far and wide to watch the match, wasted the time of huge numbers of police officers and the army’s bomb squad, and unnecessarily put people in danger.”

Earlier in the day, bomb disposal experts carried out a controlled explosion of the device, but not before a nervous air descended upon Old Trafford, with the game being called off.

The match will take place Tuesday, with United offering refunds to all ticket holders and free entry. According to the BBC, v STORY CONTINUES ON 2B

As doping scandal grows, could Russia get Olympic boot?

Christine Brennan

cbrennan@usatoday.com USA TODAY Sports

The stunning and diabolical facts and allegations about doping in Russian sports have taken on the rhythm of an almost-daily drumbeat now, less than three months before the start of this summer’s Rio Olympic Games.

With its track and field team banned from international competition, Russia is facing unprece-

dented scrutiny over allegations that it engaged in massive, statesponsored cheating at the 2014 Sochi Games, doctoring urine samples to allow doped-up athletes to avoid detection and, in some cases, “win” gold medals. If the reports are true, Russia will have engaged in the worst known cheating scandal in sports since the days of the East Germans more than a generation ago, begging these pressing questions: Is Russia’s doping limited to track and field and the winter sports at the Sochi Games? Why would that be? Why would Russian sports officials, who won the Sochi medal count at least in part

because of their deception, stop there? Earlier this year, the World AntiDoping Agency announced that Russian swimming was being scrutinized for AFP/GETTY IMAGES Russia’s Vita- allegations of its own culture ly Mutko of doping. apologized.

Would that be it: track and field and swimming? What about all the other Summer Olympic sports, with their cache of medals to be won? How long will it be,

then, before an international rival calls for WADA and the International Olympic Committee to ban Russia entirely — not just the track and field team but the entire Russian delegation — from the Rio Games?

It doesn’t take much to imagine that such an effort might be on the horizon. That said, it’s difficult to picture WADA completing an investigation in time to rule before the Aug. 5 Rio opening ceremony, and it’s almost impossible to imagine the IOC having the stomach to actually kick Russia out of the Olympics.

For now, though, the specter of not being able to bring the track

and field team to Rio led Russia’s sports minister to take the extraordinary step of apologizing, in a strategic sort of way, in London’s Sunday Times.

“We are very sorry that athletes who tried to deceive us, and the world, were not caught sooner,” Vitaly Mutko wrote. “We are very sorry because Russia is committed to upholding the highest standards in sport and is opposed to anything that threatens the Olympic values.”

Of course it is. Pay no attention to the sports ministers behind the curtain, sports fans. It’s just those deceptive Russian athletes, going it alone.

High court may play pivotal role on voting Dispute places justices in potentially uncomfortable spot Richard Wolf @richardjwolf USA TODAY

The Supreme Court decided a presidential election 16 years ago based on how votes were counted. This year, a shorthanded court may help decide who can vote in the first place.

Petitions challenging restrictions on voting in key states could reach the high court before Election Day, putting the justices at the fulcrum of American politics in what promises to be a wild race for the White House.

Chief Justice John Roberts’ court has itself to thank for some of the laws enacted after the justices struck down a key part of the Voting Rights Act in 2013.

Those laws impose rules for regWASHINGTON

Since the court’s 5-4 decision in Bush v. Gore ended a dispute over Florida’s vote count in George W. Bush’s favor, the justices have intervened regularly in elections. They allowed Ohio Republicans to challenge voters at the polls in 2004. Two years ago, they let stand restrictions passed

by Republican legislatures in North Carolina, Ohio and Texas, blocking them in Wisconsin.

Seventeen states have new voting procedures in place for the November election, more than half of which are being challenged in court.

Democrats have joined the legal effort this year in a major way, filing lawsuits not only in Ohio, Wisconsin, North Carolina and Virginia but also in Arizona.

“This election cycle and the litigation involved is an extension and further evolution of 2000 Bush v. Gore,” says Thor Hearne, who represents Republican legislatures in election law cases.

Soccer no stranger to terrorism v CONTINUED FROM 1B

the move will cost the club about $4.3 million.

There will be frustration directed at United, with this embarrassment coming at the end of a disappointing season on the field. Chief executive Ed Woodward pledged to investigate how the package was not removed as part of the training exercise while insisting “the safety of fans is always our highest priority.”

Yet the bizarre saga also is a reminder that security measures and soccer now go hand in hand.

The sport known as “The Beautiful Game” is a legitimate target for those who seek attention or to manufacture harm.

That is why for all the fear and

tension and disappointment, there was little in the way of protest Sunday, just concern and a nervous wait for more information.

Soccer fans need no reminder that being the most popular game on the planet does not detach it from terrorism.

Last week, 16 fans of Spanish club Real Madrid were gunned down at a supporters function in the Iraqi capital of Baghdad by Islamic State fundamentalists.

The Paris attacks in November included a soccer element — a suicide bomber attempted to enter Stade de France, where the French national team was playing Germany, before detonating the device outside.

Days later, a match between

There was little in the way of protest Sunday, just concern and a nervous wait for more information.

Germany and Netherlands in Hanover, Germany, was canceled after police and stadium officials received a bomb threat.

The higher-profile the venue, the occasion or the vested parties, the bigger the potential threat, and sports officials have found it necessary to become increasingly vigilant in these troubled times.

And this is why a potential terror threat to Manchester United, on the last and one of the mostviewed days of the season, was believable.

Soccer, and sports in general, has modern realities to consider, many of which involve planning and preparing to combat potential threats. Sunday, it was those efforts, unwittingly, that caused the chaos.

Soccer fans are evacuated from the stands at Old Trafford in Manchester, England, on Sunday after a suspicious package was found in the stadium that police later said had been accidentally left behind in a security training exercise.

commando missions.

“Awards and medals have a sacred role in military culture,” said Brad Carson, the Pentagon’s former civilian chief for personnel who advocated for the review.

“They are a small ribbon symbolizing enormous sacrifice. ... And after 15 years of war, it is appropriate to review awards to make sure we applied the criteria correctly and uniformly. That’s especially true when so many missions were necessarily classified and awards given quietly. That’s why we pushed this review. It is about keeping faith with the troops.”

The citations that accompanied the two Navy Cross and 112 Silver Star medals begin as form letters under letterhead from the Secretary of the Navy. The Pentagon withheld names to protect the servicemember and his family and deletes details that could affect national security.

“The President of the United States takes pleasure in presenting the NAVY CROSS or SILVER STAR to …” The rank of the SEAL or Marine follows but the names are redacted in the documents. For those killed in action, the president “takes pride” in awarding the medal. Next, in less than a page, come astounding feats of bravery, selflessness and will.

Two Navy Crosses, second only to the Medal of Honor, are among the Navy documents. The first, on Aug. 9, 2009, a Navy SEAL, his name blacked out like others in the report, was leading a small unit when their base came “under an intense coordinated attack” in Afghanistan. A sniper wounded the unit’s medic, and the SEAL braved gunfire to drag the man to safety.

At the same time, a rocket-propelled grenade smashed through the wall of the unit’s arsenal sparking a major fire. “With a catastrophic explosion imminent,” the SEAL evacuated the base. He then ran repeatedly into the arsenal to haul out crates of explosives to uncover the “smoldering and undetonated warhead, which he removed with his bare hands.” He left the compound, making several trips to dump explosives in a nearby river, all the while being shot at.

Missing from the citations is any mention of SEAL Team 6 and its mission into Pakistan that killed Osama bin Laden in 2011.

President Obama did provide the commandos with the Presidential Unit Citation, the highest honor for a military unit. The Navy did not rule out the possibility that individual medals were awarded.

PAUL MOSELEY, AP

Navy SEAL Chris Kyle, was a recipient of a secret Silver Star.

DEFENSE DEPARTMENT

SEAL Edward Byers was given the Medal of Honor in February for saving a doctor.

“Due to sensitivity surrounding the composition and conduct of the raid ... at this time the department cannot comment on any individual recognition,” said Navy spokeswoman Lt. Jackie Pau. BENGHAZI

The most tersely worded citation accompanied the only other Navy Cross, awarded to a Marine gunnery sergeant. His heroism on the night of Sept. 11, 2012, came amid the chaos and controversy that surrounds the attack in Benghazi, Libya, that killed Ambassador Christopher Stevens and three other Americans. A House committee continues to investigate the attack, the U.S. response and the role of Hillary Clinton, then the secretary of State and now the likely Democratic nominee for president.

It’s possible, through the citation and congressional reports on Benghazi, to sketch out his actions that night. The citation refers to his actions “in support of Overseas Contingency Operations in Sept.

2012” but does not say where. The Navy has acknowledged that it did award a Navy Cross to the Marine

for his actions that night.

A House intelligence committee report on Benghazi refers to a twoperson detachment of military personnel and other security personnel who flew from Tripoli that night to rescue Americans. They arrived at the besieged compound, and within 11 minutes were under attack by mortars, rocket-propelled grenades and small-arms fire. The attack killed two and severely wounded two others. The Marine helped treat the wounded, repel attackers and organize the evacuation.

RAMADI

In 2006, U.S. troops and al-Qaeda terrorists scratched and clawed in brutal street-by-street fighting in Ramadi, in western Iraq. “It was pretty intense urban combat,” Army Lt. Gen. Sean MacFarland recalled in an interview. He commanded a brigade in Ramadi as colonel at the time and now leads the coalition fighting the Islamic States. “What the SEALs were doing in particular for us was sniper, counter-sniper operations.”

The SEALs, MacFarland said, would venture deep behind enemy

lines, setting up “hide sites” where small teams would await inevitable attacks on the outposts.

On Sept. 29, an insurgent threw a grenade on the roof where Michael Monsoor and two fellow SEALs had set up to protect another unit. Monsoor, who had a clear exit, chose instead to leap on the grenade, sacrificing his life for those of his colleagues, according to the citation for the Medal of Honor awarded to him posthumously. The lieutenant who fought through “heavy enemy fire” to retrieve Monsoor and his wounded SEALs, was awarded a Silver Star in secret for the mission.

In all, from spring to fall in 2006, SEALs earned at least 14 Silver Stars.

Monsoor earned one of those as well, according to his Medal of Honor citation. On May 9, he “exposed himself to heavy enemy fire” to help rescue another SEAL who had been shot in the leg, according to the citation.

The Silver Star citation for his fellow SEAL, Chris Kyle, shows that in Ramadi, from April 24 to Aug. 27, 2006, Kyle “personally accounted for 91 confirmed enemy fighters killed and dozens more probably killed or wounded.”

Kyle was played by actor Bradley Cooper in American Sniper, the 2014 movie based on his autobiography. Kyle was killed in 2013 by a veteran he had been mentoring at a shooting range in Texas.

HOSTAGE RESCUE

In February, Obama awarded another SEAL, Senior Chief Petty Officer Edward Byers, the Medal of Honor for his acts of courage in shielding an American doctor from his Taliban captors while bullets zipped through the hideout. It was a rare public acknowledgement of SEALs’ heroism, made even more unusual in that Byers belonged to SEAL Team 6.

The details of the night of Dec. 8, 2012, were sketched out in the citation for Byers: Taliban gunmen cut down the lead SEAL in the team that assaulted the compound, Petty Officer 1st Class Nicolas Checque, mortally wounding him. Byers followed Checque, tackled one of Dr. Dilip Joseph’s captors and held another with his bare hands, allowing another SEAL to kill the militant. Byers then leaped atop Joseph to protect him from gunfire.

Their names remain secret, but the citations reveal that three teammates of Byers and Cheque received Silver Stars for their “bold initiative, undaunted courage, and complete dedication to duty.”

Bloody Sunday in Iraq: At least 29 dead Terrorists launch multiple attacks, including at gas plant John Bacon @jmbacon USA TODAY

The Islamic State claimed responsibility for Sunday’s fiery assault at a natural gas plant outside Baghdad that left at least 14 dead, the latest in a series of attacks in the war-weary nation.

Four other bomb attacks in and around the capital Sunday, all targeting commercial areas, killed at least 15 more people, the Associated Press reported, citing Iraqi officials.

The assault at the gas plant began when three car bombs exploded outside the gate in Taji, less than 15 miles north of Baghdad, the BBC reported. Suicide bombers and other militants rushed the plant, clashing with security forces and blowing up gas tanks.

Security forces backed by two military helicopters were able to repel the attack. Three gas storage tanks were set ablaze at the plant, which produces gas canisters for cooking. In addition to those killed, at least 20 people were wounded, according to the AP and BBC.

“ISIL is using these attacks against symbolically important targets ... to demonstrate that it is potent and attractive to new recruits.”

James Piazza, professor at Penn State

Other attacks Sunday included a car bomb blast near Latifiyah, 20 miles south of Baghdad, that killed seven people, AP reported.

The Islamic State, also known as ISIL or ISIS, has stepped up attacks in the nation in recent days.

Firefighters try to extinguish a blaze at the Taji gas factory following an attack Sunday by the Islamic State. At least 14 people were killed.

Wednesday, three separate car bombings in Baghdad killed at least 93 people and wounded more than 150 in one of the deadliest days in Iraq this year.

Last Monday, 13 people died when an attacker blew up a minibus in the city of Baqouba, 30 miles northeast of Baghdad.

Iraqi government leaders maintain that the attacks are a desperate response to the Islamic State’s recent military setbacks in Iraq and Syria, where the militant effort to carve out an extremist Islamic caliphate has stalled.

James Piazza, a political science professor at Penn State who specializes in Middle East affairs, said a political deadlock that has paralyzed the government has made Iraq ripe for terror attacks and made “effective and coherent security policy impossible.”

Still, Piazza says that “substantial battlefield reversals” have put a strain on the Islamic State fi-

nancially and psychologically.

“The loss of territory has deprived them (Islamic State militants) of access to oil resources and other means of financing their organization,” Piazza told USA TODAY. He said the military setbacks represented a “demoralizing, symbolic loss” that also threatens the group’s international image.

“ISIL is using these high-profile terrorist attacks against symbolically important targets in Iraq, such as Shiite Shi’i neighborhoods and religious sites, and strategic targets like oil and gas plants, to try to demonstrate that it is potent and attractive to new recruits,” he said.

In Syria, the Islamic State is repositioning forces in Raqqa, the group’s de facto capital, in response to military pressure from coalition airstrikes and ground forces growing in effectiveness there, U.S. officials say.

IN BRIEF PRIEBUS: TRUMP’S PERSONAL LIFE NOT BEING JUDGED

Republican National Committee Chairman Reince Priebus said Donald Trump will have to answer questions about his conduct toward women, but said Republican voters aren’t “judging” the party’s presumptive nominee on his personal life.

“There are things he’s going to have to answer for,” Priebus said Sunday on ABC’s This Week. “But I also think there are things from many years ago.”

“I don’t think Donald Trump is being judged based on his personal life,” Priebus added. “I think people are judging Donald Trump as to whether or not he’s someone that’s going to go to Washington and shake things up.

That’s why he’s doing so well.”

Harrison, 51, surrendered earlier in the day. The search had been suspended for the night when officers patrolling the road found the younger Harrison walking less than 2 miles from where a roadblock had been set up.

The men are accused of luring a woman and her four teenage daughters to a house in Centerville, Utah, and tying them up in the basement Tuesday. Both men face multiple kidnapping and assault counts and other charges.

People walk by a mural on a restaurant wall in Vilnius, Lithuania, that depicts U.S. presidential hopeful Donald Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin greeting each other with a kiss.

Tongues are wagging over Putin and Trump lip-lock Marco della Cava @marcodellacava USA TODAY

A small Lithuanian restaurant garnered international attention Saturday thanks to its 6-foot mural showing presumptive Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump and Russian leader Vladimir Putin locking lips.

The mural outside Keule Ruke — or Smoking Pig — eatery in the capital city of Vilnius is a nod to a famous 1979 image of two Communist leaders, Soviet leader Leonid Brezhnev and East Germany’s Erich Hoenecker, in the same pose.

Men kissing each other on the lips is a common greeting in Slavic countries.

Smoking Pig owner Dominykas Ceckauskas said that the similarity of the two images is not unintentional.

“We think that the border now is not in Berlin, but somewhere

here in the Baltic states, between (the) East and the West,” he told the Associated Press.

Lithuania is one of the Baltic nations that for decades was under Soviet rule.

The nation gained its independence, along with other countries such as Ukraine, after the fall of the Soviet Union in the early 1990s.

Ceckauskas added that the painting is “an ironic view of what can be expected” when the two leaders meet.

“They seem to get along pretty well,” he added.

In December, Putin called Trump “bright and talented.” A day later, Trump returned the compliment, saying, “He’s running his country and at least he’s a leader, unlike what we have in this country.”

Trump has all but secured the GOP’s nomination to run in this fall’s presidential election, while Hillary Clinton is the Democratic front-runner.

The painting is “an ironic view of what can be expected” when the two leaders meet. “They seem to get along pretty well.”

“I’m still trying to be a skeptic,” said Norden, the restaurant’s owner. “But I’m failing at being a skeptic.”

In the 30 years since Norden took over ownership, he’s seen a preponderance of evidence — from staff, customers and paranormal experts alike — that the hamlet eatery might be housing some guests of the ghostly variety, despite whatever healthy skepticism he harbors.

“This is table two and this is the seat that, if it’s 95 degrees in the dining room, somebody will feel cold there,” Norden said, standing over the corner table of the restaurant’s front dining room, somewhat dimly lit and still largely composed of Revolutionary War-era lumber, on a gloomy Friday the 13th.

“We’ll all be doing a staff meeting in the other room and you’ll hear a glass fall off the table,” he said. “Nobody even bothers getting up anymore because it’s always that a glass fell off of table two and they never break. So you just pick it up, put it back.”

CARL COURT, AFP/GETTY IMAGES

PIPELINE MERGER IS IN DANGER OF UNRAVELING Pipeline giant The Williams Co. is suing competing oil and gas pipeline company Energy Transfer Equity for not following through on the companies’ planned merger. In September 2015, ETE agreed to pay $37.7 billion to acquire Williams. But ETE “has breached the Merger Agreement through a pattern of delay and obstruction designed to allow ETE to avoid its contractual commitments,” the company said in a statement announcing the filing of the suit late Friday in Delaware. Williams asks the court to require ETE to close the transaction by June 28.

CLEANUP OF OIL SPILL CONTINUES IN GULF Shell Oil and the U.S. Coast Guard continue cleanup of an oil spill that released an estimated 88,200 gallons of crude oil into the Gulf of Mexico about 90 miles south of Louisiana. An undersea oil is the likely cause of the leak, which was discovered Thursday, but the U.S. Bureau of Safety and Environmental Enforcement is leading investigating the incident. About 51,000 gallons of oily water had been skimmed from the ocean surface Sunday, Shell said. The Coast Guard said no wildlife are expected to be affected and no shoreline would be hit by the spill. “No release is acceptable, had been and safety remains our priority as we respond to this incident,” Shell said in a statement.

INVESTMENT FIRM DUMPS ITS STAKE IN PEPSICO Activist investor Nelson Peltz and his investment firm Trian Partners have unloaded their stake in PepsiCo. The move comes two years after Trian attempted to get PepsiCo to split off its snacks and beverage units. At that time, Trian owned about $1.2 billion in PepsiCo. PepsiCo eventually added Trian adviser and former Heinz CEO Bill Johnson to its board under threat of a proxy battle. At the end of last year, Trian held 18.3 million shares for a 1.3% stake in the company.

PepsiCo shares have risen about 30% over the past three years.

“Management has increased productivity efforts, reduced overhead, increased advertising investment, and delivered consistent earnings growth on a constant-currency basis,” the company told Bloomberg. PepsiCo shares fell 2% Friday to $104.18 after news broke of Trian’s disclosure in a regulatory filing that it no longer held PepsiCo.

Stalled-out market has taken the bumpy road to nowhere Adam Shell @adamshell USA TODAY

It’s been almost a year since the U.S. stock market hit its alltime high, and the market has made little progress since then, basically standing in place as if stopped at a red traffic light.

Since its peak of 2130.82 on May 21, 2015, the Standard & Poor’s 500 stock index is down about 4% after recently flirting with a fresh high. But it has endured wild swings along the way that have added up to a sideways market. Along the bumpy road to nowhere, the S&P 500 has bounced back from its first correction, or 10% drop, since 2011, overcome its worst start to a year ever and survived the Federal Reserve’s first interest rate hike in nearly a decade.

Oil prices have ralENERGY lied lately, but not enough to convince U.S. oil producers that hard times may be over soon.

That’s evident in shale regions like North Dakota that have driven a resurgence in U.S. oil and natural gas production over the past few years.

Lynn Helms, the director of the North Dakota Department of Mineral Resources, told reporters the other day that producers won’t begin to ramp up activity until they see oil prices holding steady at more than $40 a barrel for 90 days or so.

“We’ve got one month under our belt above $40 WTI, but really a couple of months to go before confidence is there to start mobilizing crews and putting wells back into production,” Helms said, referring to West Texas Intermediate, the U.S. benchmark for oil prices.

North Dakota’s oil production was down 1%, or 9,846 barrels a day, in March compared to Feb-

ruary.

The total of 1,109,246 barrels a day wasn’t all that bad, considering that Helms expected a much bigger fall-off.

Just a few days before, Helms was braced for a March report that would show the state’s oil production below 1.1 million barrels a day.

He called it a “fairly significant milestone” in terms of state expectations for revenue from drilling.

“But we had some operators who came in with amended reports and later reports with some significant production increases, and that put us back above that 1.1 million barrels,” he said.

“That’s pretty good news even though our production declined about 10,000 barrels a day.”

Like the U.S. as a whole, North Dakota, which is the nation’s second-biggest oil producer, has seen its oil output tumble over the past year or so, though not as much as some analysts might have expected.

The high point for oil production in the Peace Garden State was more than 1.2 million barrels a day in December 2014, six months after oil prices began a swoon that has driven them down 60% or more since then.

The state’s March production marked a drop of about 10% since that record was set.

While production numbers were better than anticipated, other indicators of oil development in North Dakota suggest the worst is yet to come for operators

NORTH DAKOTA OIL Oil production in North Dakota topped out at 1.23 million barrels a day in December 2014 and has declined since then: 1.23 1.2

in a remote state where oil sells at prices below the national average because of the cost of shipping it to markets.

As Helms spoke Thursday, the price for North Dakota oil was $33 a barrel, substantially less than the $46.70 price for WTI. The all-time high for oil prices in North Dakota was $136.29 in July 2008.

Among the worrisome factors for Helms is the drilling rig count, which stood at 27 last week, the lowest level since July 2005,

when it was also 27. The peak for the state rig count was 218 in May 2012.

Other low points in Helms’ report were estimates of the number of wells that have been hydraulically fractured, but not yet completed, which stood at 920 in March, up 13 from February’s count, and inactive wells, which totaled 1,523 in March, or 84 more than the previous month.

“I keep expecting the type of production declines we saw in December and January,” when output was down about 30,000 barrels a day each month, Helms said.

The recent uptick in oil prices, due largely to unexpected supply outages in Canada, Ghana and Nigeria, may have “strengthened people’s resolve a little bit,” he said.

“But as we keep seeing higher and higher inactive-well counts, and increasing uncompleted-well counts, we really should be seeing those kinds of . . . production declines like we saw in December and January. So, I continue to wait for that shoe to drop,” he said.

As for the milestone number for overall oil production, Helms observed, “I still think we may well be looking at 1 million barrels a day, or something below that, by the end of the year.”

Aircraft such as this Delta Air Lines Boeing 717 will be added to the airline’s high-frequency Shuttle brand.

Delta’s shuttle flies west as competition heats up Ben Mutzabaugh @todayinthesky USA TODAY

Airline “shuttle” routes have long been synonymous with the busy East Coast airports serving New York, Boston and Washington. But now it’s time to add three of the West Coast’s big hubs to the mix.

Delta Air Lines added its highfrequency Delta Shuttle brand to Seattle on Wednesday.

The move furthers the West Coast expansion that began in 2013 when Delta upgraded its Los Angeles-San Francisco service to an hourly schedule under the Delta Shuttle brand.

With Seattle, Delta’s West Coast Shuttle flights now offer business-oriented schedules and perks for customers flying between the Pacific Coast’s three biggest business centers: Los Angeles, San Francisco and Seattle.

Delta’s West Coast shuttle routes join its longstanding ones on the East Coast, where it and American each offer hourly weekday service on routes linking New York LaGuardia to both Washington Reagan National and Boston Logan. American, which inheri-

Unlike on Delta’s shorter East Coast shuttle routes, customers on the West Coast shuttle flights will get meal service in first class or free snack boxes in Delta’s “Comfort+” extra-legroom seating. Economy fliers get free snacks.

Henry Harteveldt, founder of the San Francisco-based Atmosphere Research Group, says the expansion of Delta Shuttle to Seattle is as much about marketing to locals as anything else.

“This isn’t really about the shuttle like you see in the Northeast,” he says. “What this is really about is Delta trying to further distinguish itself from Alaska Airlines in a highly competitive marketplace.”

Delta’s L.A.-San Francisco shuttle more closely mimics the schedule it offers back East.

There are up to 14 weekday round-trip flights on Boeing 717 jets that fly on an hourly schedule.

The competition in Los Angeles is no less ferocious than what Delta faces in Seattle.

That’s also true for L.A.-San Francisco service. United flies the route up to 15 times each weekday and American 13, according to the carriers’ June schedules.

Q: How does a pilot land a plane during heavy rain and low visibility?

— Samuel, Jakarta A: Pilots use precise navigation equipment, usually the Instrument Landing System (ILS), to maneuver the airplane laterally and vertically to land on the runway. If an ILS is not available, GPS or other navigation aids are used. A high-quality ILS combined with special equipment can allow pilots to safely land when the visibility is very limited.

Q: We were recently departing from Fort Myers (in Florida) and flights were delayed from landing due to fog.

This delay created a cascade of problems such as diversions for refueling, flight crews “timing out,” gate changes, flight changes, etc.

With modern avionics, radar, GPS, etc., why can’t aircraft land in the fog?

— John Kersh A: Low-visibility landings depend on many things. The runway navigation facilities (the ILS), runway lighting and approach path must be specially certified for low-visibility landing.

Pilots are required to visually see the runway at 200 feet and ½ mile out unless there are special Category I, II or III procedures available. Airports such as RSW do not have this capability.

The landing visibility requirements are ½ mile or 1,800 feet runway visual range (a special visibility monitor). If the pilot cannot see the runway when they descend to 200 feet, then they may not land.

Large airports such as Atlanta, Seattle, Orlando and J.F. Kennedy have Category III equipment available. Airplanes that are specially equipped and certified with certified crews may land with as little as 300 feet visibility.

We landed in Seattle very late one night when the visibility was 300 feet. The airplane was flown by the autopilot/autothrottle system during the approach all the way to touchdown and roll-out.

We did not see runway until we were over it at less than 50 feet. It is very impressive technology.

Airplanes can land in the fog, but not all airports and airplanes are equally capable.

Don’t let your guard down during summer travel Christopher Elliott

chris@elliott.org Special for USA TODAY

Summer travelers worry about terrorism and Zika and unrest, but maybe they should look a little closer for the real threat.

Maybe they should look in a mirror.

“Travelers leave their laptop open and unlocked while they go to the bar or bathroom,” says security strategist Ben Johnson.

“They read off credit card and passport numbers over the phone, in public.”

A survey by Experian revealed nearly one in five travelers lost sensitive information on the road, and 30% said they experienced identity theft while traveling or know someone who has.

It gets worse if you cross a border. International travelers are 1 1⁄2 times more likely to become victims of identity theft than domestic travelers, a LifeLock study found.

The consequences of their carelessness can be immediate and catastrophic. Travelers are quick to blame everyone but themselves for data loss or ID theft. The app had a security flaw!

ON TRAVEL EVERY MONDAY

To protect sensitive information, don’t connect to open Wi-Fi networks and consider changing your password after a trip.

The Wi-Fi network wasn’t secure! There were strangers overhearing my conversation in the hotel lobby! But this summer, the best way to stay safe lies within.

What to do? Easy. Just observe your fellow travelers and learn from their mistakes.

Johnson, a former National Security Agency employee who cofounded the security consulting firm Carbon Black, has seen travelers carelessly log onto a wireless network that may not have been the hotel’s official one (yes, they let him watch). He’s even seen hotel guests leave electronics, such as laptops and USB keys,

in their room, leaving their most sensitive information vulnerable to theft.

Patti Reddi witnessed some pretty outrageous things, too.

Like posting a photo of your boarding pass on social media.

Duh. “Your boarding pass contains sensitive information like your frequent-flier number, record locator and more,” says Reddi, who writes a travel blog. Plus, there’s no better way of tipping off a thief that you’re not home than with a confirmed boarding pass that says, “I’m away.”

The lack of attention can hurt you. Jaclyn Goldman met a man

at a hotel bar who was sobbing uncontrollably. What happened?

Goldman, a sales executive, says the man had given two women his last name and room number.

“They racked up a $1,000 bar bill,” she remembers. “And then they disappeared.”

Jesse Harrison recalls the time his business partner committed a similar error at a car rental counter. When asked for a phone number, he used a loud and clear voice to give it to the counter agent. Maybe a little too loud.

“Later that day, we got a call from someone claiming to be the car rental company, saying they are going to report us to the police because we stole something from the car rental company when we picked up the car,” recalls Harrison, who works for a legal services company in Los Angeles. “How did they know our information? My guess is someone heard my partner’s phone number and decided to prank us.”

The solution to these security woes is surprisingly simple: Don’t shout out your phone number or credit card number in public.

Don’t leave your electronics where they can be stolen. Don’t tweet your itinerary.

In other words, don’t be your own worst enemy when you travel this summer.

Elliott is a consumer advocate and editor at large for National Geographic Traveler.

WHAT NOT TO DO WHEN YOU TRAVEL uDon’t connect to an open Wi-Fi network. “Anybody can connect to them, and there could be traps set up to trick you, sneakily labeled hotel Wi-Fi, free Wi-Fi and airport Wi-Fi,” says Paul Paget, the chief executive of Pwnie Express, a security consulting firm. uDon’t plug into any old power outlet. Daniel Smith, an information security researcher for Radware, says one of the biggest mistakes travelers make is placing their trust in random mobile power stations. Seriously. “By plugging your device into a power station, you’re risking your devices’ data via Juice jacking,” he says. Only use a power plug you trust. uDon’t forget to change your password. At the end of your trip, switch to a different password, experts recommend. Why? Many Wi-Fi networks and public Internet connections can be leveraged to sniff passwords and user IDs of everything you did while traveling. Why give them access to your information when you return?

JUSTIN LUBIN, NBC

Gary Levin @garymlevin USA TODAY

NBC will use The Voice to launch two of its three new fall series and move Blindspot and The Blacklist to new time periods.

In all, NBC is adding 12 new scripted series next season, including fall dramas Timeless and This Is Us and new comedy The Good Place, starring Kristen Bell and Ted Danson.

Timeless, to follow The Voice on Mondays, is a thriller about a team bent on stopping a criminal from using a time-travel machine to change the past. This Is Us, which has big fans at NBC, stars Mandy Moore, Milo Ventimiglia and Sterling K. Brown (The People v. O.J. Simpson) is an ensemble drama about people with unexpected connections. And The Good Place stars Bell as a woman in the “afterlife” who uses a guide ( Danson) to redeem her bad behavior.

Along with more shows due later, they’ll replace the 10 canceled series in something of an overhaul, including forgettable spring tryouts such as Heartbeat, Game of Silence and Crowded; Undateable and Telenovela; and The Mysteries of Laura, ending after two seasons. Five more series are returning for second seasons: Little Big Shots, Superstore (its only returning comedy), Blindspot, Shades of Blue and Chicago Med, the third in Dick Wolf’s Windy City franchise, which will expand to four with midseason legal drama Chicago Justice.

Still, NBC Entertainment chairman Robert Greenblatt says fall will bring “a very stable schedule.” Despite the launching pad offered by this summer’s Olympics, “the stability of all these returning shows” means “there’s not a lot of churn, which is what we’ve had a lot of in previous seasons.”

Among those arriving later, Taken (based on the Liam Neeson film) will replace Timeless

grainy enchantment; That Old Black Magic is jazzier, the tempo sped up like a beating heart.

Even Hoagy Carmichael and Johnny Mercer’s robustly bittersweet Skylark takes on an almost jaunty air, with animated acoustic guitar and whimsical viola heeding a gently buoyant pace.

But the lean, rootsy arrange-

ments also can accommodate a distinct sense of melancholy. And there is a pronounced sense of hope against hope both on a delicate Maybe You’ll Be There and a more ominous Come Rain Or Come Shine.

Dylan’s subdued ambivalence on the latter highlights the debt to the blues that he shares with composer Harold Arlen; it also lends a different kind of poignance to Mercer’s pining lyric.

“Don’t ever bet me/’Cause I’m gonna be true if you let me,” Dylan sings, with implicit emphasis on the “if.” Without raising his voice or adjusting his phrasing conspicuously, this pop vet, who turns 75 May 24, captures how time can lower our expectations — though not, hopefully, our capacity for desire.

This is what a seasoned performer can do with words and music, whether his own or someone else’s. Dylan deserves thanks for reminding us of that, again.

Self not surprised by Diallo’s decision

By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

Tom Keegan tkeegan@ljworld.com

Tennis coach fulfills ‘vision’ Coming off back-to-back Big 12 titles at Texas Tech in women’s tennis, Todd Chapman decided to give that up and take a job at a school that was in the midst of a 15-year NCAA Tournament drought.

My first thought was he must have lost a bet on a golf course. You win, you can have the keys to my car. You lose, you have to leave the school you took to its first two NCAA tournaments for Kansas University.

Quite the contrary, Chapman said.

“I had a vision a year or two before this job came open,” Chapman said. “You might think I’m crazy, but I thought, ‘Gosh, this place could be good.’ I told my boss at Texas Tech if it ever came open I was going to go hard after the job. I really believed this place could be special. It’s fun to see some of those things come true and it also made me realize I wasn’t crazy.”

Chapman coached Kansas to the NCAA Tournament, where it lost over the weekend to UC Santa Barbara, 4-3.

And that surprising season figures to be a precursor to even better days.

Three of KU’s top four players were freshmen, the other a sophomore.

“The exciting part is this is just the tip of the iceberg,” said Chapman, named Big 12 coach of the year. “We definitely have the ability to be top 10, especially with the new facilities (12 courts at Rock Chalk Park, a few months from completion), and winning breeds winning.”

The future is bright. Chapman’s awareness that the past was as well was part of what drew him to Lawrence, where his wife and their five daughters reside.

Chapman was well aware that Chuck Merzbacher rattled off four consecutive Big Eight titles in the ’90s. Chapman also said that Michael Center, former Kansas star player and men’s and women’s tennis coach and now the Texas men’s coach, confirmed his suspicions that Kansas had great potential.

Chapman said he normally likes to see a player “25, 30 times” before signing

After playing well, measuring well and interviewing well at last week’s NBA Combine, Kansas University freshman Cheick Diallo proclaimed to ESPN. com and CBSSports.com reporters he would be signing with an agent and keep-

ing his name in the June 23 draft.

The 6-foot-9 Mali native’s decision to turn pro certainly did not surprise Jayhawk coach Bill Self, who has said several times in previous weeks that Diallo almost certainly had played his last game as a Jayhawk.

“Cheick entered this process not committing to sign

with an agent, but the reality of it is, if things went well, he would announce this decision in which he would go, and certainly he performed very well at the Combine,” Self told the Journal-World on Sunday.

“We’re so happy and proud of him. I believe without hesitation his best play is to remain in the draft,”

Self added of Diallo and his 7-foot, 41⁄2-inch wingspan that impressed NBA officials at the Combine in Chicago.

Draftexpress.com on Sunday in its first post-Combine mock draft moved Diallo from an early-second-round pick to the 25th pick of Please see HOOPS, page 3C Diallo

Loss to K-State a blow to Jayhawks J-W Staff Reports

Manhattan — Kansas University senior Colby Wright returned to the Jayhawks’ lineup with a bang Sunday, but the second baseman’s two-home-run, four-RBI afternoon was not enough, and Kansas dropped the series

finale to Kansas State 8-5 at Tointon Family Stadium.

The loss dropped the Jayhawks (20-31-1 overall, 6-14 Big 12) 11⁄2 games behind the Wildcats (26-26, 8-13) for the eighth and final spot in the Big 12 Championship, May 25-29, with three Big 12 games to play.

Left on the bench during the first two games of the series because of back spasms that surfaced Friday — KU won the opener 4-1 and fell in Game 2, 12-2 — Wright was back in the clean-up spot Sunday and uncorked a threerun home run in the top of the first to give Kansas an early

lead and later tied the game at 5 in the top of the sixth with a solo shot that came after the Wildcats scored three in the fifth to take a 5-4 lead.

Wright finished the day 2-for-4 with four RBIs, two runs and a walk.

“I think this group is hungry,” Casey said about his team.

“Never say never.”

Casey declined to say whether center Jonas Valanciunas, who sprained his right ankle in Game 3 against the Heat, would be available against Cleveland.

“He’s still limping around but he’s doing therapy 24-7 so we’ll see,” Casey said.

Scouting booklets for the Cleveland series were sitting

“We know we’ve got a tough task ahead,” Lowry said. “It’s always a challenge going against those guys.”

Dwyane Wade and Goran Dragic each scored 16 points for the Heat. Miami was denied the opportunity to renew acquaintances with former teammate James in the conference finals.

“We fought tooth and nail to try to get to that goal of getting to the Eastern Conference Finals,” Wade said. “We came up obviously one game short of that. For myself and a lot of guys on this team, there’s not always another season, another season, so you want to take advantage of the opportunities.”

KU men second, women take fourth J-W Staff Reports

Fort Worth, Texas — Kansas University’s men’s 4X400-meter relay team of Jaron Hartley, Ivan Henry, Stryman Livingston and Tre Daniels won the final event of the day to punctuate the Jayhawks’ second-place

finish in the team standings at the Big 12 Outdoor Track and Field Championships on Sunday.

Texas won the men’s team title with 134 points.

Kansas was runner-up with 116, its highest finish since 1983. Texas Tech was third with 112.

“I’m obviously very

excited with the performance of our men’s team this weekend,” KU coach Stanley Redwine said.

The KU women placed fourth with 82.4 points, trailing Texas (167.7), Oklahoma (137.5) and Kansas State (112).

Among the highlights for Kansas on Sunday:

Does Self think Diallo is a first-rounder?

“I think so,” Self said Sunday. “More than according to the Combine in which he performed very well, I always thought he was a first-round talent. I do think he’s very raw. At the same time, he’s gotten so much better since he arrived on campus (last summer). We were just kind of set with our rotation down the stretch (thus cutting his minutes). Those guys (KU’s bigs) played at a pretty high level.

“I do believe his best ball is down the road,” Self added. “He’s one of those guys, when you draft in the NBA, you are not drafting for one or two years, you are drafting for three or four years, possibly more than that. I do think when he grades out three years from now as the equivalent of a college senior, I think he’ll

Baseball “It was a really impressive performance by him after being out the (first) two days,” Price said of Wright. “He could barely walk around on Friday, and he was huge. It was a big-time game, and he has been a big-time player.

He played one of his best games ever today.”

As has been the case throughout the season, the Jayhawks struggled to take advantage of a great start to a conference series by being outscored 20-7 during the final two games of the Sunflower Showdown.

Wright’s early home run and a few strong innings by starter Blake Weiman gave Kansas the early edge and appeared to put the Jayhawks in position to win the rubber match. But KU managed just four hits over the final five innings and gave the Wildcats time to claim control.

KANSAS UNIVERSITY CATCHER MICHAEL TINSLEY LOOKS ON as Kansas State senior Clayton Dalrymple (5) comes in to score during the Wildcats’ 8-5 victory Sunday in Manhattan.

“I was proud of the way our guys competed and grinded it out,” Price said. “It had the chance of being a great series win, but I tip my cap to KState. They came up with some big swings late in the game.”

The Jayhawks will play Tuesday at Wichita State and then will need some help next weekend to keep their season alive. Trailing both Baylor and Kansas State by a game-and-a-half

for eighth in the league, KU will need to win at least two games in its season finale at Oklahoma State and hope that either Baylor (vs. Texas) or Kansas State (vs. TCU) drops a pair or gets swept.

Oak Ridge, Tenn. — Kansas University’s Second Varsity Four boat took third place, and the Jayhawks placed third in the overall team standings at the Big 12 Rowing Championship on Sunday at Melton Lake.

Texas repeated as Big 12 champion with 137 points. Oklahoma was second at 115 and Kansas third with 82. Kansas State (74) and West Virginia (57) rounded out the scoring.

“We were looking to finish at a higher level in the Big 12, and that’s

what we did — going from fourth- to thirdplace this season,” Kansas coach Rob Catloth said. “We have a lot of returners coming back next year, and we can build upon this experience. It will make them hungrier moving forward. For such a young team, they are making great strides that will pay off in the near future.”

Diallo, who was not declared eligible for participation in games by the NCAA until the sixth game of the 2015-16 season, averaged 3.0 points and 2.5 rebounds for KU with 23 blocked shots. He logged 7.5 minutes per game in 27 contests.

“Cheick started out at a disadvantage this year,” Self said. “His attitude was always good.

He always worked hard.

He was very thankful for the efforts of many that worked hard to clear his eligibility.

“The reality is, he started behind. Once the season starts (and) the players head to league play, you don’t slow down.

You’ve got to keep moving. He was behind. The emergence of Landen (Lucas) really put Cheick in a situation he was going to be a guy that was probably not going to play as many minutes as we all thought coming in.

He still got better every day. By the end of the season, the guys on our team would tell you he was probably as improved as anybody in our gym.”

Transfer Evan Maxwell told the J-W over the weekend he’d be arriving around June 6. Self cannot comment on Maxwell until papers are processed

by KU’s compliance office. … Derryck Thornton, a 6-2 former Duke point guard, was on Miami’s campus for an official visit over the weekend. He has finished his campus visits, now must choose either KU, USC, Washington or Miami. He will sit next season then be eligible as a sophomore in 2017-18.

If he attends Miami, he’d lose a year of eligibility because Miami is in the same league as Duke.

Chapman used a recruiting agency in Moscow to find out about prospects, gained a commitment from Nina Khmelnitckaia, the No. 4 player this

season as a freshman.

She told Chapman about fellow Moscow native Anastasiya Rychagova, who ended up playing No. 1 as a freshman.

Janet Koch, a freshman from Durbanville, South Africa, also had a strong season, as did sophomore Smith Hinton of Raleigh, N.C.

MAJOR-LEAGUE ROUNDUP

Rangers brawl, beat up Blue Jays The Associated Press

American League Rangers 7, Blue Jays 6 Arlington, Texas — A feud simmering since Jose Bautista’s bat flip in last year’s AL Division Series boiled over into a wild brawl in the final game of the season between Toronto and Texas, a victory for the Rangers on Sunday.

Bautista and Texas second baseman Rougned Odor got into a fist fight behind the bag after a hard slide by the Toronto slugger in the eighth inning. Players from both teams rushed the field as Odor landed a punch to Bautista’s face.

Umpires needed about 10 minutes to restore order, and Blue Jays reliever Jesse Chavez (0-1) hit Prince Fielder with the next pitch when the game resumed. He was ejected after an earlier warning for both teams when Bautista was hit by a pitch from Matt Bush.

Toronto manager John Gibbons was among eight ejections in the game.

Red Sox 10, Astros 9 Boston — Xander Bogaerts hit a three-run homer, and Ryan Hanigan had three singles and drove in four to lead Boston.

Tigers 6, Orioles 5 Baltimore — J.D. Martinez and Miguel Cabrera homered on consecutive pitches in the eighth inning, and Detroit ended Baltimore’s seven-game winning streak.

The home runs came against Darren O’Day, who fanned the first two batters in the eighth with Baltimore up 5-4. O’Day (2-1) thought he struck out the side when Martinez checked his swing with two strikes, but firstbase umpire Mark Wegner ruled the batter did not go around.

Martinez hit the sidearmer’s next pitch over the center-field wall, and Cabrera followed with a drive to left.

Manny Machado homered for the Orioles.

Santiago allowed just two hits overall, the first not coming until the sixth inning when Shawn O’Malley led off with a bunt single that Santiago mishandled on the transfer.

KANSAS CITY DESIGNATED HITTER KENDRYS MORALES HITS A TWO-RUN HOME RUN off Atlanta relief pitcher Jason Grilli during the 13th inning of the Royals’ 4-2 victory Sunday in Kansas City, Mo.

BOX SCORE

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1C

“We only needed one run, but thankfully we got two.”

Morales hit one to the right-center wall in the sixth that Jeff Francoeur caught.

“I thought the first one was gone and it didn’t go,” Morales said. “I thought I hit this one pretty good and I’m glad it got out.”

The Royals took two of three from the last-place Braves after losing their five previous series. The Braves lost for the 18th time in 23 games and have won only one series this season.

“We’ve played well, other than this inning where they walked us off,” Braves manager Fredi Gonzalez said. “We pitched well, we hit, we battled. We did a lot of good stuff and it’s just a shame you walk out of here feeling pretty darn good, but your record, you lost two out of three.”

The Royals used nine pitchers, tying a club record for one game, with Chien-Ming Wang (20) picking up the victory. Left-hander Eric O’Flaherty (0-3), the sixth of seven Braves pitchers, took the loss.

The Braves rallied to tie it with two runs in the ninth off Davis, who blew his first save since July 12 against Toronto, and was 8-for-8 in save situations this year.

Mallex Smith and Erick Aybar had run-producing singles off Davis. Ender Inciarte led off the inning with a single and then Davis walked Chase d’Arnaud.

Royals rookie lefthander Scott Alexander

allowed one single and struck out four in three scoreless innings after Davis’ inning.

“It was kind of a tough inning, but thankfully the offense and Scotty picked us up,” Davis said. “Everybody stepped up, but obviously I didn’t do my job.”

Eric Hosmer, who is hitting .388 against righthanders, singled home Escobar in the Royals’ first. Escobar led off the inning with a double.

Jarrod Dyson opened the eighth with a double and scored on Escobar’s single to finish the afternoon for Braves starter Matt Wisler after 116 pitches. Wisler allowed two runs on eight hits, walked none and struck out seven.

“We could have cashed in in the ninth today, but they came back and battled,” Wisler said. “Took me off the hook for it.

We’re not going to quit and hopefully we can start turning these into Ws.” Hosmer, who had doubled, was thrown out at the plate to end the Royals’ sixth when he attempted to score on Salvador Perez’s single to left.

Left-hander Danny Duffy, who replaced the injured Kris Medlen in the rotation and was making his first start, threw three innings, allowing one hit, struck out five and walked two before reaching his pitch limit. Duffy, who made 24 starts last season, began the season with 16 relief appearances.
