Union, administrators wrap up negotiations By Rochelle Valverde Twitter: @RochelleVerde
Educators districtwide can expect to see a raise in pay next school year as a result of teacher contract negotiations for the Lawrence school district, which concluded Tuesday. The agreement reached Tuesday by negotiators for the district and its teachers union includes a 1.5 percent salary increase for all teachers. Though the pay in-

crease was less than half of what the Lawrence teachers union originally proposed, union leaders weren’t displeased with the outcome. “Considering the way that the state is doing things for schools these days, that’s about as good as can be expected,” David Reber, lead negotiator for the Lawrence Education Association, said following the meeting.

Kan. Supreme Court signs off on school funding equity fix By Peter Hancock Twitter: @LJWpqhancock
Topeka — The Kansas Supreme Court said Tuesday that it is satisfied with the Legislature’s action last week addressing school funding equity, and
it will not issue any other remedial orders such as closing public schools. “In short, the legislature has currently satisfied the court’s orders in Gannon I, Gannon II and Gannon III regarding equity. Therefore, no judicial remedy

Considering the way that the state CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A is doing things for schools these days, Union leaders and dis- that’s about as good trict administrators nego- as can be expected.” tiate annually to update the district’s master teacher contract. Tuesday’s meeting was the sixth since March between district and union negotiators. In May, the LEA proposed to raise every teacher’s base pay by $250 per year, as well as fund regular pay increases for additional years of service and higher education — commonly referred to as “vertical and horizontal” raises because of the how they are displayed on the district’s pay schedule. The district and the union ultimately agreed to a $100 raise in base pay per year for teachers, in addition to funding pay increases for service and education levels. The raise comes at a cost to the district of $711,689. For example, under the 2015-2016 salary schedule, a teacher with a bachelor’s degree would receive a starting salary of $37,630 and receive an average annual raise of about $600 for each year of service until that teacher’s 13th year. After the 13th year, that teacher wouldn’t receive any increase in pay without a raise in base pay or additional higher education. Negotiators also agreed to add two days of planning time for elementary school teachers, an addition that Reber said was also noteworthy. “I’ve been involved in negotiating for about 10 years or so, and elementary plan time is always
— David Reber, lead negotiator for the Lawrence Education Association a big issue,” Reber said. “They have significantly less plan time than other grade levels.” In their final meeting Tuesday, negotiators met for three hours, most of which was devoted to adopting temporary language regarding changes to teachers’ schedules at Liberty Memorial Central and South middle schools. The language added to the contract specified that 75 percent of teachers need to agree to any schedule changes before they are finalized. “We just really feel like it has to go through the proper process and channels and be bargained in rather than kind of doing an end run around the contract,” Reber said. A committee of teachers and administrators will be formed next school year to further discuss changes to the middle school schedule, which could then potentially become part of teacher contract negotiations for next year. All changes to the teacher contract that were agreed upon will be final once the school board and LEA ratify them at their upcoming meetings.

Funding CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A
had to levy higher property taxes than wealthier ones to achieve comparable levels of funding. That included equalization aid for local option budgets, or LOBs, which are the additional funds districts can levy on their own over and above their general state aid, and capital outlay budgets that pay for bigticket purchases such as new equipment, furniture and building repairs. The court said in February that both equalization formulas were unconstitutional, and lawmakers responded by amending both formulas. The court reviewed those changes and issued another opinion May 27, saying the Legislature had cured the problem with capital outlay equalization, but that aid for local option budgets was still unconstitutional, and it gave lawmakers until June 30 to fix the problem. That prompted a twoday special legislative session last week that resulted in lawmakers coming up with a bill that added $38 million in LOB equalization and reinstated an earlier formula that the court had previously upheld as constitutional but that lawmakers had repealed in 2015. Gov. Sam Brownback signed that bill Monday, and the state and the plaintiffs submitted a joint stipulation to the court that day saying they agreed that the new bill met the Kansas Constitution’s requirement for equitable funding. Tuesday’s court order puts an end to one portion of the ongoing litigation. But Nuss said in the order that the court will next turn its attention to the other, more significant portion challenging the overall adequacy of school funding. There, plaintiffs are seeking upward of $500 million a year in additional base state aid for public schools. In the time since the lawsuit was filed in 2010, lawmakers also repealed the base aid formula used at that time and replaced it with a system of block grants that essentially froze each district’s funding in place for two years. Lawmakers are expected to write a new school funding formula during the 2017 session, but the Supreme Court’s decision in the adequacy portion of the case could have a significant impact on the Legislature’s actions. — Statehouse reporter Peter Hancock can be reached at 354-4222 or phancock@ljworld.com.

Bob Billings reconstruction begins Improvements expected to be complete by fall
ACLU urges judge to rule quickly in voting case By Peter Hancock

Back in November, the president of the Quail Pointe at Alvamar neighborhood group explained to Lawrence city commissioners the trouble that older residents had turning left onto Bob Billings Parkway. Warren Corman, also retired as Kansas University’s architect, said it had been “a real problem.” “The hill comes in from both ways, and if people are driving 40 mph, we have about four seconds before they come over the hill and we see them,” he said. Corman told commissioners the situation would be helped by a traffic signal at Stone Meadows Drive and Bob Billings Parkway — a project that’s now part of a larger package of improvements on Bob Billings Parkway starting this week. “In the mornings at peak hours, it’s hard for people to get onto the street because of traffic,” said Zach Baker, engineer for the Bob Billings Parkway project. “So, at least now with a traffic signal they will have a protected phase to get onto the Nick Krug/Journal-World Photo road. It will definitely slow up TRAFFIC ON BOB BILLINGS PARKWAY MEANDERS THROUGH A traffic along there.” LINE OF CONES SET OUT as it proceeds toward the intersection Please see CONSTRUCTION, page 4A of Bob Billings and Kasold Drive.

Westar fee cut approved; customers to see slight drop in bills By Peter Hancock Twitter: @LJWpqhancock
Westar Energy electric customers will soon start saving an average $1.50 on their monthly bills. The Kansas Corporation Commission issued an order Tuesday authorizing Westar to reduce its Transmission Delivery Charge.
Tuesday’s order finalizes a settlement agreement reached earlier this year in a dispute over Westar’s transmission fees. Transmission Delivery Charges, also known as TDLs, are governed by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, which determines how much profit utilities are allowed to
make from their investment in transmission line infrastructure. The charges appear as a separate line item on customer bills. Last year, KCC filed a complaint with FERC alleging that Westar had over-earned on its transmission costs. In March, FERC approved a settlement agreement in the dispute, and

Bookstore CONTINUED FROM PAGE 3A
The store’s last day will be Thursday, according to signs outside the building at 1420 Crescent Road, just off the KU campus at Crescent and Naismith Drive. Jayhawk Bookstore is one of several businesses owned by the Levin family of Manhattan, best known for owning Varney’s Book Store in Aggieville, which has served Kansas State University students since 1890. All the businesses are closing, including Varney’s Book Store, a sportswear shop in Manhattan, another sportswear shop in Salina and Lawrence’s Jayhawk Bookstore, said Jeff Levin, one of the owners. “We’re going completely out of business,” Levin said. “It’s like death by 1,000 slices, because there’s a lot of factors. Obviously we lost a lot of market share to the internet, but also buying trends have changed.” The Levin family bought Jayhawk Bookstore — which had been operating in the same spot for decades — in 2013, Levin said. Jayhawk Bookstore’s “bread and butter” was textbooks, he said. He said owners had predicted a significant loss for January, but it was even deeper than anticipated, and they were no longer able to sustain their business model. “To pay for the kind of square footage we were using we needed textbooks to do well,” he said. Among other challenges, Levin said, faculty have changed how they formulate class material. Instead of assigning books, they’re assigning more “chunks” of information. There’s been a rise in online open-access material and more students ordering books online. If people aren’t coming in the door to buy books, they don’t buy many supplies either, Levin said. There’s also more competition with collegiate gear, Levin said. “Even grocery stores are selling clothing.” Jayhawk Bookstore’s closing will leave KU’s Central District and West Campus with no on- or next-to-campus bookstore. KU Bookstore, operated by KU Memorial Unions, has its main location inside the Kansas Union at the eastern end of campus. There was a KU Bookstore satellite location inside the Burge Union in KU’s Central District, but the building was torn down this spring and KU Memorial Unions does not plan to have a similar bookstore in the new Central District union, expected to be constructed by fall 2018. KU Bookstore is and will remain the only place to buy textbooks on campus, said KU Memorial Unions Director David Mucci. He said commonly needed class supplies — such as pens, pencils, bluebooks, folders and batteries — are available in convenience stores at the Kansas Union, the Underground in Wescoe Hall and, eventually, the new Central District union. Once Jayhawk Bookstore closes, it’s unclear what’s next for the building “at the top of the hill.” The Levin family does not own the building housing Jayhawk Bookstore, Levin said. The building’s owner did not immediately respond to a message from the Journal-World Tuesday afternoon. — KU and higher ed reporter Sara Shepherd can be reached at sshepherd@ljworld.com or 832-7187.

KU, student newspaper resolve funding suit By Sara Shepherd
“
We’re pleased that we’ve been able to bring (The University Daily Kansan and KU Student Senate) together The Kansas University stu- to agree to terms that both groups find acceptable.” Twitter: @saramarieshep
dent-run newspaper’s lawsuit against school administrators has been dismissed, after the two sides reached a resolution. Both parties stated that the case had been resolved “to their satisfaction” and agreed to dismiss it, according to a document filed Monday in federal court. Each side will bear its own respective costs, according to the document. Neither representatives from The University Daily Kansan nor the university would share information about the terms of the resolution or discussions leading to it. Patrick Doran, the Kansas City, Mo., attorney representing the Kansan, and Jon Schlitt, the Kansan’s advertising adviser and temporary news adviser, declined to comment about the agreement. KU’s office of general counsel referred questions to KU’s office of public relations. KU spokesman Andy Hyland also did not answer questions about the resolution. However, the Student Senate funding cut that prompted the Kansan to sue KU was reversed
— Andy Hyland, Kansas University spokesman late in the spring semester. When asked whether KU administration was involved in that Student Senate action, Hyland said, “Throughout this process, we’ve encouraged Student Senate and the University Daily Kansan to resolve their differences on the issue of funding. We’re pleased that we’ve been able to bring these two student organizations together to agree to terms that both groups find acceptable.” In spring 2015 the Senate voted to cut a $2-per-student required campus fee for the Kansan to $1, meaning the newspaper received about $45,000 instead of $90,000 from Senate for the 2015-16 school year. In February the Kansan, spring 2016 editor-in-chief Vicky DíazCamacho and former editorin-chief Katie Kutsko sued KU Chancellor Bernadette Gray-Little and vice provost for student
affairs Tammara Durham. The newspaper alleged that Senate cut its funding based on content unflattering to the Senate, violating the student newspaper’s constitutional press freedoms under the First Amendment. The suit names the two administrators because the chancellor or designee must ultimately sign off on fee decisions made by the Senate, and did so in this case. While the majority of Kansan funding comes from advertising revenue, editors have said the cut was significant enough to force elimination of student positions and render the newspaper unable to fill the vacant faculty news adviser position. In March the Senate voted to keep the Kansan fee at $1 for the 2016-17 school year. However, the Senate reversed that decision at its final meeting of the — KU and higher ed reporter Sara Shepherd can be reached at sshepherd@ljworld.com or 832-7187. year, on April 27.
County to consider authorizing more jail expansion design work By Elvyn Jones Twitter: @ElvynJ
Douglas County commissioners today will consider authorizing architects to do additional work on the Douglas County Jail expansion at the same time that the county is reviewing the project’s scope. The item on the commission’s consent agenda would amend Treanor Architects’ contract to design the jail’s expansion so the firm can complete more design work and develop firmer cost estimates. Treanor has completed four of five phases stipulated in its jail design contract with the county. Today’s agenda item would authorize Treanor to complete the first two of the five categories that make up the fifth and final phase. The new work would develop schematic designs for the jail expansion and complete its design development. Dan Rowe, principal with Tre-

issue unresolved threatens to complicate upcoming state and federal elections in Kansas and the two other states involved in the case. “The federal primary elections will take place in Kansas on August (2), 2016, just over a month from now,” the letter stated. “The general federal elections will occur in November, a mere four months from now, and voter registration requirements in Kansas, Alabama and Georgia require resolution well before then.” The ACLU filed the suit in February against Brian Newby, executive director of the U.S. Election Assistance Commission shortly after his unilateral decision to grant requests to amend the federal voter registration forms used in those states to reflect their proof-of-citizenship requirements. As part of the suit, the ACLU asked for a preliminary injunction to block the use of those amended forms. In the letter, ACLU attorneys acknowledge that any decision the district court makes about the injunction will be appealed to the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals, a process that could take as long as six months.
The Kansas Board of Regents this month approved KU’s 201617 required student fee package, which includes a $2.50 per semester Kansan readership fee — reinstating the newspaper’s former level of funding and then some. The Kansan will receive $2 per student for the following two years, and after fiscal year 2019, the Kansan will no longer request funding from the Senate, the Kansan has reported. Senate leaders previously declined to comment on their Kansan funding decision, citing the pending lawsuit. They did not respond to a message seeking comment Tuesday afternoon. The Kansan is in the process of searching for a new news adviser, after spending the past year without one. Schlitt said the restored required student fee revenue is helping the Kansan rehire that position, which has an advertised salary range of $45,000 to $55,000. Schlitt said he could not yet answer what effect the restored funding would have on student positions.
BRIEFLY KU special education Motorcycle crash program gets grant injures Lawrence man
Kansas University has secured a five-year, $1.25 million grant from the federal Office of Special Education Programs to help increase inclusion in schools, the university announced Tuesday. The grant will provide funding for 42 teachers to gain an endorsement in special education or work toward a master’s degree in special education. Jennifer Kurth, assistant professor, and Mary Morningstar, associate professor of special education at KU, are co-principal investigators of the grant. They said the program would help address the practice of segregating students with disabilities such as cognitive disability, multiple disabilities or autism from general education classrooms. The first cohort of students will begin in fall 2016. Participation is open to teachers who will continue to work in their — County reporter Elvyn Jones can be schools or others who will reached at 832-7166 be or are enrolled at KU full and ejones@ljworld.com. time.
A Lawrence man was hospitalized after suffering serious injuries Saturday in a single-vehicle motorcycle accident, police said. According to the Missouri State Highway Patrol, around 6 p.m. Saturday James Sneegas, 66, lost control of his motorcycle on a wet road just north of Bland, Mo. The motorcycle left the roadway and hit a rock bluff, the patrol report said. Bland is located southeast of Jefferson City, Mo. Sneegas was flown by air ambulance to the University of Missouri Hospital in Columbia, where he is listed in critical condition. Sneegas’ motorcycle, a 1947 Harley-Davidson, was extensively damaged in the crash, the patrol report said. A Missouri State Highway Patrol representative did not immediately return phone calls seeking more information on Tuesday afternoon.
All of that work is estimated to be complete by the time school starts in August. “We’re doing all the roadway stuff first because that has the most impact for traffic,” Baker said. “If we can get the pavement redone and striped and pretty before school starts, that’s what we’re going to do.” Traffic signals will be installed near the end of the project, in September. In addition to the signal planned for Stone Meadows Drive, traffic signals will be installed along Bob Billings Parkway at Inverness Drive and Bobwhite Drive. Inverness Drive will be closed to traffic for about a month when workers create a right-turn lane to prepare for the installation of the traffic signal, Baker said. Stone Meadows Drive will also be closed to through-traffic to put in a right-turn lane. Workers will also improve sight distance at the intersection of St. Andrews Drive, and they are planning to fill in a sidewalk gap along the south side of Bob Billings Parkway from Monterey Way to Inverness Drive. “Now, from K-10 to the KU campus, you can walk on a sidewalk either side of the street,” Baker said. The list of improvements was created last year, after public works officials met with residents along Bob Billings Parkway. The four-lane road sees 6,500 to 15,500
vehicles per day, it was estimated at the time. That number was expected to increase with the opening of the Bob Billings Parkway interchange off K-10. Baker said he didn’t have updated traffic counts since the interchange opened in December, but that the “true test” would be when the South Lawrence Trafficway opens this fall — which is expected to push more drivers along K-10 who may exit onto Bob Billings. Residents first met with city leaders in 2014 about the need to control speed and access along the corridor. In 2015, $2.25 million was allotted for the project, and about 200 residents gave their input in April 2015 on what the project should include. Many of those who attended the meetings asked for pavement to be maintained, and for improvements at Stone Meadows Drive, Inverness Drive and Bobwhite Drive. Because of a lack of right-of-way at the intersections, the city recommended traffic signals rather than roundabouts, which was also an option. “Through the whole process, we’ve been planning what people are wanting,” Baker said. “We’ve had a lot of feedback. That’s why we chose what we chose.”
anor, said the design development work would provide the designs of the mechanical, plumbing, electrical, structural, security and other systems needed for the project. Design development details would allow Treanor to make more accurate cost estimates, Rowe said. County Administrator Craig Weinaug and Rowe said accurate estimates would be critical when the county advances a referendum on the jail expansion. Work on the schematic design and design development would be done in conjunction with the county revisiting assumptions on the number of beds needed in the expansion. At a town hall meeting in January, Rowe presented preliminary footprints and conceptual renderings of the jail expansion, which would add 120 beds to the existing 187-bed facility at an estimated cost of $30 million. In April, commissioners agreed it
wasn’t possible to put a ballot question on the jail expansion before voters in November because of the amount of work yet to be done. Some of that work was assigned to the Douglas County Criminal Justice Coordinating Council, formed in March. At the first four meetings of the council, staffers from the sheriff’s office, district attorney’s office, county courts and court services have reported on a number of pilot or proposed programs that could influence jail population numbers, including a mental health court, ankle bracelets as an alternative to incarceration and the use of more personal-recognizance bonds. Should the amended contract be approved as written, Treanor would receive $518,000 for the schematic designs and design development.
Before Newby was hired at the EAC, he served as Johnson County election commissioner, a position directly appointed by Kansas Secretary of State Kris Kobach, who championed the proof of citizenship law in 2011. The EAC had previously denied Kobach’s request to amend the federal forms, but Newby later unilaterally amended them. Under the National Voter Registration Act, states are required to accept registrations made using the federal form. But because that federal form did not ask for proof of citizenship until recently, Kobach has ordered county election officers to conduct a “dual” election system in which people who used those forms may vote only in federal races, not in state or local races. That would apply to voters who used the old federal mail-in forms, as well as an estimated 18,000 voters who registered at their local motor vehicles office when they obtained or renewed their driver’s license. A state judge in Shawnee County ruled recently that Kobach has no legal authority to make such an order, but he did not specifically issue an injunction blocking him from doing so.
Construction CONTINUED FROM PAGE 3A
Cones, barriers and signs went up along Bob Billings Parkway on Monday and Tuesday, funneling traffic into one lane in each direction near Kasold Drive. The road project along Bob Billings Parkway, a total of $2.2 million in improvements, will start today with the creation of a right-turn lane at Kasold. Baker said work on the south side of the intersection would start first, followed by the north side a couple of weeks later. The work will continue east from Kasold, with a mill and overlay project from Kasold to Wakarusa and then a restriping from Kasold to Crossgate Drive to create a center turn lane. Cars will be moved to different lanes during this time, but Bob Billings Parkway will never be closed to traffic during the months of construction, Baker said. “East and west traffic through the corridor will always be open to traffic,” Baker said. “Sometimes it will be more constricted, but for a lot of it, it will be open most of the way. The biggest hindrance will be right here at the beginning, near Kasold.” Moving farther west, the street from Foxfire to — Statehouse reporter Peter Hancock Bobwhite will undergo a can be reached at 354-4222 or mill and overlay this sumphancock@ljworld.com. mer, too.

Tate plans to retire after Williams’ arrival, but will remain involved in the Arts Center as a consultant, working with major donors and on outside ventures such as the Free State Festival and the East Ninth Project. “We had excellent candidates from around the country, as well as wonderful internal candidates, and we’re excited to announce this selection,” Joan Golden, chair of the Lawrence Arts Center board of directors, said in a news release. “Kimberly has extensive experience in financial management and in the arts, and she will be a true asset to the Arts Center and to the community.” At the Solar Fuels Institute, Williams, who was also a visiting scholar there, worked with 20 global partners representing $300 million of research investment in alternative energy technologies, according to a news release from the

Williams also serves as president of the board of the Colorado-based Telluride Mountainfilm, an annual festival and worldwide tour that “uses the power of film, art and ideas to inspire audiences to create a better world,” and as a board member of Sparky Productions, an organization that produces “high-quality theater, film and music events for the town of Telluride.” Over the last 20 years, Williams has built experience in capital campaigns, public bond financing, endowments, annual operating fund drives, public-private financing, crowdfunding campaigns and venture

to the newspaper the steps the state is taking to whittle down the backlog, such as retaining temporary employees who had been slated for release. He also defended the state’s privatized Medicaid program, known as KanCare, which had the state enter into large contracts with several companies. “KanCare has overall worked very well,” Brownback said. “Not that it hasn’t had difficulties, but overall I’ve been very pleased with the program, but this is something we thought we were getting the number down much faster.”
In the past year, the state moved some program administration to the Kansas Department of Health and Environment, which operates a “clearinghouse” facility in Topeka to wade through Medicaid applications. The backlog in unprocessed applications arose after difficulties with that transition. Kansas has told federal officials the previous backlog figure came because of an error by Accenture, the company Kansas contracted for the electronic eligibility system. Accenture disputes that claim, saying in a statement that it never provided inaccurate data.
BRIEFLY Discrimination suits Activists bash report proceed against ESU on Plum Island sale Kansas City, Mo. — A federal lawsuit that alleges Emporia State University discriminated against a black assistant professor after he complained about a racial incident will continue after a federal judge rejected motions to dismiss it. Melvin Hale, who is black, claimed that the school retaliated against him and his wife, Angelica, after they complained in April 2015 about finding a note with a racial slur near her office in the School of Library and Information Management. Federal judge Sam Crow on June 15 rejected three motions to dismiss the case. About two weeks after Hale’s lawsuit was filed, a former assistant professor in the same department, Rajesh Singh, filed a lawsuit accusing Emporia State of discrimination, retaliation and due process violations.
Southold, N.Y. — Environmentalists are skewering a new report by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security about the sale of Plum Island. The 44-page report released Monday examines options for the 840-acre property off Long Island that is home to a federal animal disease research laboratory. It makes no recommendations on whether a proposed sale should proceed. The laboratory, opened in the 1950s, is moving to Kansas by the end of 2022. John Turner of the Preserve Plum Island Coalition says the report is “incomplete and lacks meaningful data.” Leah Schmalz of Save the Sound says the report has “fallen short when it comes to identifying options for protecting Plum Island.”

Medicaid application backlog ‘frustrating,’ Brownback says Topeka (ap) — Gov. Sam Brownback said he’s disappointed that the state’s backlog in unprocessed Medicaid applications is four times as large as previously thought. As Kansas and a contractor battle over who bears blame for the error, Brownback called the situation “frustrating” in a short interview with the Topeka Capital-Journal. The number of unprocessed Medicaid applications had been about 3,500 people before the state acknowledged earlier this month that the actual figure was more than 15,000. Brownback reiterated

Neighbor may want to pay for dog bite costs Dear Annie: A month ago, my wife was bitten by our neighbor’s foster dog. While the dog was healthy and had had all of its shots, the bite became infected and required a doctor’s care. This turned out to be a lengthy process, including shots and a prescription. Our insurance paid the bill, and so far we have not received anything indicating that we owe money. The neighbor has apologized many times and the dog has been returned to the facility. Should we just let it go, or should the neighbor reimburse us for any additional costs? — Not Sure Dear Not Sure: If there is no additional cost for your wife’s medical bills or prescriptions, we think your neighbor has done all she can. However, should a medical bill show up in the mail, you ought to ask

When Susie told her boyfriend about the baby, he did not respond. My husband threatened to hire a lawyer, so Susie informed
Nature is ‘enhanced’ with graphics We live in a world of enhanced visual effects. Or are they gimmicks? It’s not enough to merely capture a great image for a nature documentary anymore. You’ve got to play with it, slow it down, speed it up, layer it with sound effects. Thus, the PBS series “Nature” makes room for something called “SuperNature: Wild Flyers” (7 p.m., TV-PG, check local listings). Don’t let the title fool you. “Flyers” is not about birds. Not e x c l u sively. It’s about critters that do their best to defy the very force holding us in place — gravity itself. We first meet a caracal, a jungle cat that can jump vertically on very short notice to grab birds from the air. Computer graphics reveal the specialized anatomy that enables the cat to leap and land without injury. But because this is “SuperNature,” leaps and descents are shown repeatedly from numerous angles at various speeds while audio from a NASA launchpad countdown accompanies its “liftoff.” It’s all a bit much. Over the course of three weekly episodes, “Flyers” will celebrate bats, bugs and birds as they take to the skies, some for long flights and others for momentary thrill rides. It’s a visual feast. But the ratio of sugarcoating to substance may leave some queasy. O Dennis Potter has been dead for more than two decades, but he continues to influence television. The British TV writer (1935-1994) is most famous in this country for his musical fantasy series “Pennies From Heaven” and “The Singing Detective” — shows that told stories in musical fashion where major characters burst into song to advance the plot. A special DVD box set of “Cop Rock,” the musical police procedural from Steven Bochco, was recently released. A surprising number of television series have trotted out a “musical” episode, often as the series neared its end. The most acclaimed stab at musicality was “Once More, With Feeling,” a “Buffy the Vampire Slayer” episode from 2001. “That ‘70s Show” did a musical episode. The list also includes “Grey’s Anatomy,” “Chicago Hope,” “7th Heaven,” “Ally McBeal,” “Northern Exposure” and “How I Met Your Mother.” “Scrubs” neared its sign off with a musical. Tonight, the USA series “Royal Pains” (9 p.m., USA, TV-PG) will burst into song with a special guest, Cloris Leachman. The “Pains” series finale airs next week. Tonight’s other highlights

him that he had to tell his parents about the baby. They demanded a paternity test, which proved their son was the father. Although we recommended adoption, Susie opted to keep the baby. The lawyer got a decent amount of child support. But a month later, the boyfriend suddenly quit his job and moved back to his parents’ country. Our grandson is now 3, and Susie barely earns enough for child care and rent. Last week, I got a call from the mother of one of Susie’s college friends. Apparently, her daughter had invited Susie to her recent wedding, and Susie sent a note saying she’d be out of town. But another friend saw Susie boarding a bus the morning of the wedding. When I asked Susie, she started sobbing. She said she didn’t have enough money to buy a dress and get her hair done for the big day. So

Funding hoops A subtle change in funding will cause significant changes for a state program focused on supporting families with young children.
C
hanges in how Kansas funds its Parents as Teachers program will result in added administrative hassles for many parents and the loss of an important service for others. Parents as Teachers, a program that uses home visits to support parents and identify potential developmental concerns in young children, will receive the same amount of money that it received last year, but the source of that money has changed. For many years, the state funded Parents as Teachers using money from the Children’s Initiatives Fund, which is funded by the national tobacco settlement. This year, lawmakers decided they need that money for other purposes and replaced state funding for the program with federal funds from the Temporary Assistance for Needy Families pool. The problem is that TANF money comes with some strings attached, namely that any services that receive TANF funds must be available only to people who meet certain federal guidelines. Starting on Friday, Parents as Teachers services will be available only to families who meet one of 19 eligibility standards that include factors like income, health and education levels. Not only does that mean a loss of services for some families, it creates a whole new batch of administrative requirements for families and Parents as Teachers staff who now must complete all the necessary paperwork to prove they qualify for the services. Time that could be spent concentrating on young children now will be spent jumping through administrative hoops to ensure continued funding. Officials also fear that even some parents who qualify for services won’t want to provide documentation that they are struggling financially. Some local Parents as Teachers programs say they hope to maintain play groups and networking events open to any family who wants to participate, but home visits will have to be restricted to families who meet the federal guidelines. Although local funds can be used to serve families who don’t qualify for TANF, a portion of that money will be eaten up by administrative and facilities costs that can’t be covered by the federal funds. Parents as Teachers could consider charging people who don’t qualify for TANF for services, but that also would add new administrative costs. Parents as Teachers officials say one of the reasons the program has been so successful is that it offered services without labels based on income or other factors. Those days are over. Parents as Teachers is still a great program but state spending decisions have added significant complications to their ability to serve their clients.

Britain to the EU: Good riddance Maybe it was those college courses on the history of Europe that soured me on the idea of a united continent. How could a conglomeration of nation states noted for invading each other, pillaging and warring against each other form a union? How could a continent with different languages, cultures and money become a united states of Europe modeled after the USA? Unity is not union. As the late British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher observed: “European unity has been tried before, and the outcome was far from happy.” The euro, which I also mocked at the time it was introduced on January 1, 1999, replaced the French franc (the Swiss wisely kept their franc), the German mark, the Dutch guilder and most other circulating currencies. Thatcher again: “The European single currency is bound to fail, economically, politically and indeed socially…” How prescient she was. A majority of British voters literally want their country back. That sentiment was repeated in interviews with average blokes on the BBC and Sky. They are tired

The main lesson for Britain and the U.S. is that the people, properly informed and engaged, don’t have to put up with elitist big government whose leaders think they can run people’s lives…” of being dictated to by an unelected and unaccountable elite in Brussels. They are tired of the wave of immigrants who do not assimilate and seem uninterested in becoming fully British. And they are tired of being called names for wishing to preserve what was handed down to them by previous generations who fought and died so their descendants might continue to enjoy the British way of life. Even Queen Elizabeth
II, who normally remains outwardly neutral on most political issues, appeared to step in on this one. According to Breitbart London reporter Liam Deacon, there are reports that the Queen “thinks European courts that protect Islamist hate preachers ‘denigrate’ Britain and has demanded that her dinner guests ‘Give me three good reasons’ to remain inside the European Union.” Already people are comparing former London Mayor Boris Johnson, who led the exit campaign and wants to succeed departing Prime Minister David Cameron, to Donald Trump. Trump had the good fortune and perfect timing to be in Scotland when the voting results were announced. His news conference was carried live throughout Europe and on U.S. cable news networks. Like so many of the British, Trump supporters are sick of the elites dictating to them. They, too, want their country back and are also weary of the names they are called for wishing to preserve what was handed down to them at the price of blood, sweat and tears (to borrow from Winston Churchill). Scottish separatists vow
to hold another vote because their leader, First Minister Nicola Sturgeon, wants to remain in the EU. But the die has been cast. I suspect the EU will eventually fall apart and the nations that currently comprise it could return to their previous borders and currencies, but it is to be hoped not their previous feuds. A status quo ante would be good news for Vladimir Putin, who has viewed a united Europe as an impediment to his plan to restore “greater Russia.” The main lesson for Britain and the U.S. is that the people, properly informed and engaged, don’t have to put up with elitist big government whose leaders think they can run people’s lives and who callously “import” immigrants from nations that do not have a democratic history, much less practice religious pluralism. We can take back our countries and make them what the founders intended them to be. Britain is on the way to doing so, though the left will not give up easily, if at all. The other shoe may be about to drop in the U.S. this November. — Cal Thomas is a columnist for Tribune Content Agency.

From the Lawrence Daily Journal-World for June 29, 1916: years “Crops in this ago section never IN 1916 looked better according to every report received in Lawrence. Wheat harvest is moving along nicely and the last of the week will see practically all the grain in shock or stack. The quality and quantity is unusually good. Oats harvest has also begun and while this crop is not considered a money crop by the average farmer in this section, it would be more of a money crop this season than ordinarily. Several fields promise to yield 30 bushels per acre or better.... This has not been what is popularly termed a corn season ... but the hot days of the last week are giving the corn an impetus that is causing it to shoot rapidly.” “The joys of sweeping and washing are probably not so keen to any one else in Lawrence as to the trusties at the county jail, for these activities are in the nature of recreation for them, and means a chance to get out of a cell for a while. The men clean up things around the jail twice a day and do a first class job of it. When asked if they never made a break for liberty, Ike Johnson, the turnkey, replied that once in a while one of them did, but that more attempts of that kind were made formerly when they were marched off to work on the roads. ‘One of them went way up northwest one time,’ said Mr. Johnson, ‘but we got him back.’” “Harold Higgins tried to stop his motorcycle recently by putting his thumb in the chain. He does not recommend the plan as the experiment was not a success, and his thumb was painfully torn. The accident occurred when he tried to remove a twig that had caught in the sprocket, the end of his thumb being drawn into the chain.” “The railroads today are rushing the plans for the transportation of the Second Infantry regiment, Kansas National Guard, to the [Mexican] border tomorrow.... Jubilation was expressed today over the fact that the Kansas troops are considered sufficiently well trained and prepared to go at once to the border instead of to Fort Sam Houston, San Antonio, where they will be forced through a long, hard training period. Officers and men declared that sending them to Eagle Pass meant they would probably see actual service, if such becomes necessary, long before other troops who are sent to interior points.” — Compiled by Sarah St. John

It can be understood only in the context of being released 132 days before the 2016 presidential election.

ISTANBUL At least 30 people were killed and 60 injured Tuesday in an attack at Ataturk International Airport by three suicide bombers who blew themselves up, Istanbul Gov. Vasip Sahin said. After the blasts, panicked travelers cowered in stores, and ambulances wheeled the injured away.
Two South African tourists, Paul and Susie Roos, were at the airport to fly home and were shaken by what they saw. “We came up from the arrivals to the departures ... when we heard these shots going off,” Paul Roos told the Associated Press. “There was this guy going roaming around, he was dressed in black, and he had a handgun.” Tuesday’s bombing is the latest in a wave of terror at-

Swiss reject Muslim girls who wouldn’t swim with boys Helena Bachmann Special for USA TODAY
In the latest move to deny citizenship to those who balk at Swiss culture, authorities rejected the naturalization application of two Muslim girls who refused to take school swimming lessons because boys were present. The girls, ages 12 and 14, who live in the northern city of Basel, applied for Swiss citizenship several months ago, but their request was denied, Swiss news media reported Tuesday. The girls, whose names were GENEVA
not disclosed, said their religion prevented them from participating in compulsory swimming lessons with males in the pool at the same time. Their naturalization application was rejected because the sisters did not comply with the school curriculum, Basel authorities said. “Whoever doesn’t fulfill these conditions violates the law and therefore cannot be naturalized,” Stefan Wehrle, president of the naturalization committee, told TV station SRF on Tuesday. The case shows how those who don’t follow Swiss rules and customs won’t become citizens, even if they have lived in the

In April, members of an immigrant family in the Basel area were denied citizenship because they wore sweatpants around town and did not greet passersby — a sure sign they were not sufficiently assimilated, the naturalization board claimed. Another recent case sparked widespread outrage in Switzerland when two Muslim brothers refused to shake hands with their female teacher, also citing religious restrictions.

GOP blames politics in Benghazi attack Report says bureaucratic delays led to failure to protect Americans Mary Troyan USA TODAY
House Republicans say that despite stonewalling by the Obama administration they were able to conclude a twoyear investigation into the 2012 terror attacks in Benghazi with an 800-page report that blames politically motivated bureaucratic delays for failing to prevent or stop the deadly attacks that claimed four American lives. The highly anticipated report adds new detail to the findings of seven previous congressional inquiries and is expected to be used by Republicans to question Hillary Clinton’s leadership as the fall presidential campaign heats up. Clinton, who was secretary of State when Ambassador Christopher Stevens and three others were killed on Sept. 11, 2012, was planning to visit Libya later that year, which pressured diplomats to stay at the poorly guarded, temporary outpost despite deteriorating security in the region, according to the report. The Republicans said “despite President Obama and Secretary of Defense Leon Panetta’s clear orders to deploy military assets, nothing was sent to Benghazi, and nothing was en route to Libya at the time the last two Americans were killed almost 8 hours after the attacks began.” Republicans highlighted a teleconference meeting a few hours after the attacks began as a turning point in the U.S. response. They say actions taken after that meeting, in which Clinton participated, only delayed the deployment of military forces. Communications afterward referenced the need to get clearance WASHINGTON

the attacks were preventable, security at the facility was insufficient, and intelligence reports gave too much weight to the theory that the attacks were part of an organic protest. The Senate Homeland Security Committee issued a bipartisan report two years earlier concluding the State Department failed to provide adequate security for the facility and intelligence agencies misunderstood threats on the ground. This was not those reports. Democrats and Republicans feuded throughout about who could call witnesses, who would be included in witness interviews and what documents or people should be subpoenaed. Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., famously said
By the time the Benghazi committee was up and running, there already had been seven investigations. the Benghazi committee helped drag down Hillary Clinton’s poll numbers. The two sides issued competing reports 24 hours apart, neither having shown their version to the other. The Republican version had a few new details about the events and rafts of blame for why there were not more details. Clinton and the Obama administration stonewalled, the Republicans said, delaying the report by months. Committee members Pompeo and Rep. Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, issued a proposed addition to
the report accusing the administration of trying to undercut the investigation, because the White House did not want to admit it knew all along the Benghazi attack was planned by radical Islamic extremists. The Democratic report released Monday somehow got in 23 references to Donald Trump, the presumptive Republican presidential nominee. This is largely because the Democratic report was not about the events surrounding the Benghazi attack but the events surrounding the committee investigating the Benghazi attack. As a result of all this, there is plenty of material for two political parties to get what they want: talking points they can carry into the election season bashing the opposing party for putting propaganda over truth.
from various countries to deploy military resources for a rescue, according to the GOP report. Rep. Trey Gowdy, R-S.C., a former prosecutor and chairman of the committee, urged Americans to “read this report for themselves, look at the evidence we have collected, and reach their own conclusions.” “We expect our government to make every effort to save the lives of Americans who serve in harm’s way. That did not happen in Benghazi,” said Rep. Mike Pompeo, RKan., a member of the special committee. “Politics were put ahead of the lives of Americans, and while the administration had made excuses and blamed the challenges posed by time and distance, the truth is that they did not try.” Democrats on the panel, led by Rep. Elijah Cummings, D-Md., have repeatedly accused the Republicans of using the investigation and numerous previous committee probes to try to embarrass Clinton and damage her chances of becoming president. They released their own minority report a day ahead of the Republicans, contending the report absolves Clinton of blame in the terror attacks. In a statement, Clinton’s campaign spokesman Brian Fallon said the House investigation, after spending more than $7 million, did not find anything to contradict the conclusions reached by previous congressional committees. “This report just confirms what Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy and even one of Trey Gowdy’s own former staffers admitted months ago: This committee’s chief goal is to politicize the deaths of four brave Americans in order to try to attack the Obama administration and hurt Hillary Clinton’s campaign,” Fallon said.

to preserve national identity while taking advantage of political and economic integration. “I think that the best way to think about this is, a pause button has been pressed on the project of full European integration,” Obama told National Public Radio in an interview broadcast Tuesday. “I don’t anticipate that there’s going to be major cataclysmic changes as a result of this.” Obama’s remarks on the socalled Brexit were his most extensive since Britons voted last Thursday to leave the union of 28 countries that it joined in 1973. The resulting financial uncertainty shaved more than $1 trillion out of stock markets and sent the British pound plummeting against the dollar. But Obama noted that the U.K. long ago opted out of the Euro, the common currency that forms the basis of the monetary union, and will remain a member of NATO. In that way, he said, the U.K. will become more like Norway — still very AP involved in Europe and the President world, but not Obama through the EU. “I would not overstate it. There’s been a little bit of hysteria post-Brexit vote, as if somehow NATO’s gone, and the trans-Atlantic alliance is dissolving, and every country is rushing off to its own corner. And that’s not what’s happening,” Obama said. “What’s happening is you had a European project that was probably moving faster and without as much consensus as it should have,” he said. The White House is not calling for a do-over on the referendum, nor is it encouraging Scotland to leave the United Kingdom in an effort to keep its ties to the EU. “The United States view was then, and continues to be, that a united U.K. is in the best interests of the United States,” White House Press Secretary Josh Earnest said Tuesday. “It makes them a better partner, and allows them to make a better contribution to the NATO alliance that is the bedrock of our national security.”
‘Leave’ faction may not be able to deliver, even in victory Kim Hjelmgaard @khjelmgaard USA TODAY
Days after the United Kingdom voted to leave the European Union, the victorious “leave” campaign is backpedaling on its pledges to reduce immigration and increase public spending with money that goes to the EU. Ian Duncan Smith, a former leader of the ruling Conservative Party and a strong supporter of breaking away from the 28-nation bloc, said many of the promises were “just a series of possibilities.” Thursday’s 52% to 48% vote to depart the EU roiled financial markets, triggered an unprecedented constitutional crisis that may lead to the breakup of the U.K., prompted “remain” backer Prime Minister David Cameron to resign and left the opposition Labour Party in shambles. The national referendum pitted one half of the country against the other in a caustic and emotional debate. Here are three key commitments the “leave” camp may not be able to deliver: MILLIONS FOR HEALTH
“Leave” leaders Boris Johnson and Michael Gove spent weeks touring the country in a campaign bus with a slogan emblazoned on its side: “We send the EU £350 million a week, let’s fund our NHS instead. Vote Leave.” The NHS, or National Health Service, is publicly funded. Hours after the outcome of the vote became clear Friday morning, U.K. Independence Party chief Nigel Farage, an anti-immigration “leave” backer, said he couldn’t promise the money would be spent on the NHS, “and I never would have made that claim.” Smith said no guarantee had been made that the money would be spent on the NHS. CUT IMMIGRATION
The “leave” side said it wanted to stop an influx of EU nationals coming to the U.K. as part of the

The number of EU immigrants is 10 times what it was 20 years ago. The “leave” camp said reducing immigration would be impossible if the U.K. remained a member of the EU. “Politicians repeatedly (promised) that they could cut immigration to the tens of thousands and then ... throw their hands up in the air and say there’s nothing we can do because Brussels has taken away our control of immigration,” Johnson said in late May when immigration figures showed that 270,000 EU citizens emigrated to the U.K. last year.
“If people think that there is now going to be zero immigration from the EU, they are going to be disappointed.” Daniel Hannan, Conservative Party
A day after the vote, Daniel Hannan, a Conservative Party politician and a European Parliament member, told BBC television that the U.K. should remain within the EU’s European Economic Area or single market. The single market allows EU countries (plus non-members Iceland, Switzerland and Norway) to trade with one another without tariffs. The EU said access to the single market can be secured only in return for free movement of labor.
So EU nationals would be able to immigrate to the U.K. anyway. “If people watching think that they have voted and there is now going to be zero immigration from the EU, they are going to be disappointed,” Hannan said. THE TURKS ARE COMING
Gove said during the referendum campaign that immigration to the U.K. would worsen when Turkey and other countries on Europe’s southeastern perimeter, such as Albania and Macedonia, join the EU. “Many of these countries have high crime rates, problems with gangs and terror cells, as well as challenging levels of poverty,” Armed Forces Minister Penny Mordaunt, a “leave” supporter, said in May. It’s not clear whether Turkey will ever join the EU. It first applied in 1987 and started accession talks only in 2005. In the 11 years it has been involved in those talks, it has met only one of 35 membership requirements. Prospects that Turkey might be closer to joining the EU emerged this spring under an agreement in which Turkey agreed to take migrants from the Middle East and North Africa trying to enter Europe in exchange for an EU vow to accelerate the process for admitting Turkey. That agreement may have helped the “leave” camp by heightening fears before the vote about a wave of Turks entering the U.K. Any EU member can veto a prospective applicant, so the U.K. could have blocked Turkey’s membership if its citizens voted to stay in the union.

Trump targets globalization and trade Assails Clinton, China and ‘failed policies’ for job losses
num — on U.S. road, bridge, and construction projects, employing only American workers. Trump attacked Clinton and her husband, former president Bill Clinton, for past support of trade deals, including TPP. Hillary Clinton says she now opposes the Pacific Rim trade agreement and other “bad trade deals” that are hurting U.S. workers. Pledging to appoint a “trade prosecutor” during a speech in Ohio this week, Clinton vowed to go after “unfair trade practices like when China dumps cheap steel in our markets.” A prominent Clinton supporter — Sen. Sherrod Brown of Ohio — called Trump a hypocrite, saying he has benefited from trade deals that have helped him sponsor clothing lines made in other countries. Brown said Trump has “high-priced accountants” who are “cashing checks from products that he’s had manufactured in other countries.”
David Jackson @djusatoday USA TODAY
MONESSEN, PA . While attacking Hillary Clinton and other career politicians, Donald Trump took aim Tuesday at two other prominent election targets: globalization and free trade. “Globalization has made the financial elite who donate to politicians very, very wealthy ... but it has left millions of our workers with nothing but poverty and heartache,” Trump said during a speech targeting free trade in a nearly shuttered former steel town in Pennsylvania. In a speech devoted to what he called “How to Make America Wealthy Again,” Trump offered a series of familiar plans designed to deal with what he called “failed trade policies” — including rejection of the proposed Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) with Pacific Rim nations and renegotiation of the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) with Canada and Mexico, withdrawing from it if necessary. The presumptive Republican presidential nominee also said he would pursue bilateral trade agreements rather than multinational deals. Trump’s plans also would target one specific economic competitor: China. He vowed to label China a currency manipulator, bring it before the World Trade Organization and consider slapping tariffs on Chinese imports coming into the U.S. Clinton and other politicians, meanwhile, “watched on the sidelines as our jobs vanished and our communities were plunged into depression-level unemployment,” Trump said in a dusty old aluminum plant in Monessen, part of what was once known as “The Steel Valley” along the Monongahela River. Echoing his mantra of “America First,” Trump vowed to use only American steel — and alumi-

minimum wage, climate change and other issues in its platform. The Vermont senator told USA TODAY that there are “a lot of very good and progressive” provisions in the document approved Saturday in St. Louis by the 15-member Platform Drafting Committee, which includes supporters of Sanders and presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton. But Sanders and his supporters will be working with labor, environmental and human rights groups to call for amendments when the draft goes to the full
187-member Platform Committee for final approval in Orlando July 8 and 9. If he doesn’t succeed there, Sanders said he will have the votes to bring amendments to the convention floor. He acknowledged it would be easier if his changes were adopted in Orlando. A floor fight at the convention could prolong it. “The middle class of this country has been in decline for 40 years and we need to make it clear that we stand with working families in this country and we are prepared to take on powerful special interests,” he said. “That is what the Democratic Party has got to stand for.” Sanders has said he will vote for Clinton, but he hasn’t endorsed her or conceded his bid for the Democratic nomination.
Trump vowed to label China a currency manipulator, bring it before the World Trade Organization and slap tariffs on Chinese imports into the U.S. During his speech in a warehouse stacked with aluminum parts, Trump said Clinton came out against the Trans-Pacific Partnership only “when she saw my stance,” and predicted that she would still sign the trade pact if elected to office. “Her whole career, she has betrayed the American worker,” he said. Analysts said that Trump tends to ignore the benefits of a globalized economy, including easier and increased movement of goods and services across borders that leads to greater selection and cheaper prices for consumers.

French police detain a man Tuesday during a demonstration in Paris. Unions have called for protests in opposition to labor policies that make it easier to hire and fire workers. RECORD TRAVEL PROJECTED FOR JULY 4 HOLIDAY
The lowest gas prices in a decade will fuel a record number of Independence Day holiday motorists, putting millions more behind the wheel than on Memorial Day, according to AAA. Nearly 43 million Americans will travel from June 30 through July 4, which would set a record for the holiday weekend and amount to 5 million more travelers than the Memorial Day holiday, according to AAA. The average gallon of gas now costs $2.31, down 47 cents from a year ago and the lowest price for the holiday weekend since 2005. The decrease comes as drivers have already saved $20 billion on gasoline this year compared with 2015, according to AAA. More than 36 million people, or 84%, will drive to their destinations this year, an increase of 1.2% over last year, according to AAA. About 3.3 million will fly, up 2.2%. — Bart Jansen SENATE BLOCKS $1.1B BILL TO FIGHT ZIKA VIRUS
The Senate on Tuesday blocked a $1.1 billion bill to combat the Zika virus, giving Congress just two weeks to try to reach a new deal before lawmakers leave for a seven-week recess in the midst of mosquito season and a growing public health crisis.
Senators voted 52-48 to advance the bill, falling eight votes short of the 60 needed. Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., immediately made a motion to reconsider the vote, raising the possibility of another vote on the same bill next week. Sen. John Cornyn of Texas, the No. 2 Republican in the Senate, warned before the vote that there would be no negotiations on a new Zika bill if the legislation failed Tuesday. But Sen. Charles Schumer, D-N.Y., predicted that Republican leaders would relent and return to the negotiating table at the last minute to seek a compromise rather than go home for the summer with nothing to show their constituents. — Erin Kelly SCOTLAND FARM HOLDS ANCIENT SILVER HOARD
A farm field in northeastern Scotland has yielded a dazzling harvest of silver left at a prehistoric stone circle more than a thousand years ago. Scientists were studying the site, called Gaulcross, where 19th-century farm workers dug up a cache that has since been scattered. “We hoped we might find the odd fragment,” said archaeologist Gordon Noble. “I don’t think we really expected in our wildest dreams to find more than 100 pieces of silver.” — Traci Watson

War games in Pacific bring together U.S., China warships Kirk Spitzer USA TODAY
TOKYO Warships from a record 26 nations — including the United States and China — converge near Hawaii this week for a fiveweek series of exercises to promote international security, goodwill and cooperation on the high seas. Well, good luck with that. The Rim of the Pacific (RIMPAC) war games will take place amid increasing tension and competition in waters of the AsiaPacific region and will include warships from at least seven nations with competing claims or interests in the region. China will take part in the RIMPAC exercise, held every two years, for just the second time. Some lawmakers and the U.S. defense community have called for the invitation to be withdrawn because of China’s island-building in the South China Sea. China has claimed sole ownership over virtually all of that key waterway, through which passes an estimated $5 trillion in annual
trade. In just the past two years, China has built at least seven landfill islands in the South China Sea, including some with military-grade runways, deep-water ports and extensive land facilities. The U.S. does not support individual sovereignty claims, yet the Obama administration has expressed concern that China could use the islands to restrict air and sea navigation. China has promised not to do that. The aircraft carrier USS John C. Stennis recently completed a three-month patrol through the South China Sea, during which it was tailed by Chinese warships. Although the ships did not interfere with the Stennis’ operations, Chinese authorities refused permission for the Stennis and its escort ships to make a routine port call in Hong Kong. RIMPAC is the largest naval exercise in the world. This year’s event is Thursday through Aug. 4 and will include first-timers Germany, Italy and Denmark. Altogether, 45 ships, five submarines, 200 aircraft and 25,000 personnel will take part in the event, which will include training
in surface warfare, air- and missile-defense, amphibious operations and other maritime skills. China’s contingent will be one of the largest with five vessels, including a hospital ship. By law, the U.S. military is not permitted to provide or engage in combat-related training with China’s military. Defense Secretary Ash Carter has defended the decision to invite China to the exercise. Participation in RIMPAC contributes to “relationships that are critical to ensuring the safety and security and peace of the region’s sea lanes,” he said in a speech this year. Several Chinese ships took part in RIMPAC in 2014 without incident. But this year’s event could reflect growing tensions. Malaysia, Brunei and the Philippines also will be at RIMPAC, and each has claims with China in the South China Sea. An international tribunal is expected to rule soon on a legal challenge brought by the Philippines against China’s claims. The ruling could come during RIMPAC and China already has promised to ignore it.

MONEYLINE ECONOMIC GROWTH REVISED UP TO 1.1% IN FIRST QUARTER The economy limped along in the first quarter but at a faster pace than previously estimated, with stronger exports nudging up growth. GDP grew at a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 1.1%, up from the 0.8% estimated, the Commerce Department said Tuesday. Economists expected a revision to 1%. The weak growth is expected to do little to alter the view of Fed officials hesitant to raise interest rates.

Not every market shock spells long-term doom for stocks. When it comes to financial shocks, most trigger swift and violent market reactions but turn out to be short-lived. Then there’s megashocks — like the fall of Wall Street firm Lehman Brothers in 2008 or the techstock wreck in 2000 — which spark market earthquakes that lead to bear markets and long recoveries. So where does the “Brexit” vote shocker rate in the pecking order of past Wall Street implosions? For now, most Wall Street pros say the political and economic fallout spawned by Brexit, or Britain’s vote to exit the European Union, fits into the category of a more typical market shock. While serious and still potentially destabilizing given all the unknowns, markets can bounce back from Brexit. It doesn’t appear to be the type of sinister knock-out punch investors have been fearing. “I don’t think this is the big one,” says Sam Stovall, U.S. equity strategist at S&P Global Market Intelligence.

suggests Stovall might be right. The Dow Jones industrial average rallied nearly 270 points — after a nearly 875-point drop the past two trading sessions. The broad Standard & Poor’s 500 index surged 1.8% after a 5.3%
drop Friday and Monday. Stovall doesn’t expect U.S. consumers to cut back on car or home purchases due to what’s going on in Britain and Europe. He also doesn’t see an expected recession in the U.K. throwing the U.S. into recession. And unlike 2008, he says, even though there are concerns about financial contagion, there is little fear that the financial system will collapse. Despite investor fears, the “big ones” that threaten wealth just don’t happen with great frequency. And more typical shocks don’t end up having a long-lasting negative impact. Stovall compiled data from 20 “market shock events” dating to the attack on Pearl Harbor in 1941, and so far the Brexit scare has caused no more than the normal havoc or market drop seen in past shocks. Stovall’s shock list includes more recent events, such as Greece’s nearouster from the eurozone last summer, the U.S. debt downgrade in the summer of 2011 and the “Flash Crash” in 2010, when the stock market went haywire due to a computer malfunction. Still, some say investors should not rule out more stock market pain. “We think this negative market event has legs,” says Phil Orlando, chief equity strategist at Federated Investors.
The U.S. economy likely will take a modest hit from the United Kingdom’s vote last week to leave the European Union, but the episode is expected to produce some winners as well as losers. The market turbulence set off by the decision already is prompting some businesses to rethink hiring and investment. But homebuyers may be dealt a favorable drop in mortgage rates. Overall, the negatives are expected to outweigh the positives. High Frequency Economics has trimmed its estimate for U.S. economic growth in the second half of the year to 2.3% from 2.5%. Some winners and losers: LOSERS
uManufacturers. U.S. factories have been taking it on the chin for two years with weakness abroad and a strong dollar hobbling their exports and low oil prices damping orders for the steel pipes used by drillers. Since January, the dollar has weakened while oil prices have risen, helping the sector regain its footing. Since the vote, oil prices have dipped and the dollar has risen as much as 4% against a basket of currencies. “This is a fly in the ointment,” says Chad Moutray, chief economist of the National Association of Manufacturers. uBusiness confidence. It has been shaky, with capital spending falling the past two quarters. “Business investment is ... the most vulnerable sector,” economist Tom Porcelli of RBC Capital Markets says. And while some large banks and technology firms are unfazed by “Brexit,” others are inclined to put new hiring projects on hold to see where the dust settles while filling existing openings, says Jeanne Branthover, a partner in executive recruiting firm DHR International. That could further crimp job growth that slowed sharply in April and May. uOil producers. Prices had climbed to about $50 a barrel before Brexit sent them down to about $48 by Tuesday. A strong dollar puts downward pressure on oil, which is traded in dollars. WINNERS
uHomebuyers. The global turmoil has driven investors to the safety of U.S. Treasury bonds, pushing down the yield on 10year notes. Thirty-year mortgages, in turn, averaged 3.56% Monday, according to Bankrate, down from 3.66% a week earlier, saving the holder of a new $200,000 mortgage $144 a year. uShoppers. A strong dollar could further cut already low import prices for U.S. shoppers. uU.S. property owners banks, tech firms. Brexit may lead wealthy foreigners to sell U.K. real estate, spurring demand for U.S. properties Branthover says her banking and tech clients hope for a similar shift in assets.
Lending Club names new CEO, cuts 179 jobs Company says improper loans extended to former chief’s family Mike Snider @mikesnider USA TODAY
Lending Club named a new CEO in a bid to restore confidence in the troubled peer-topeer banking alternative under investigation for improper loan practices — activities it now says extended to the family of founder and former CEO Renaud Laplanche. The San Francisco-based company also will cut 179 jobs. Shares, trampled in the wake of the company’s disclosure in

Founded in 2007, Lending Club has handled about $19 billion in loans via its online peerto-peer model, matching borrowers with loans financed by investors. It was the golden standard for a new breed of financial tech disruptors that aimed to overtake traditional financing mechanisms using elements of the sharing economy. The company last month warned the probes might knock investor confidence, curtailing new business. Tuesday, it said
lower loan volumes in the Aprilto-June time period led to the staff reductions, which amount to about 12% of its employees, the company says. It forecast second-quarter loan originations to be one-third lower than in the first quarter of the year.

AMERICA’S MARKETS What to watch Adam Shell @adamshell USA TODAY
Was that the “Brexit” bottom flashing its green light Tuesday on Wall Street? The stock market’s two-day swoon of more than 5%, due to the shock of Britain’s vote to exit the European Union, was interrupted Tuesday by a slide-ending 1.8% surge — prompting the question: is the Brexit-driven stock market downdraft over already? “Maybe. Too soon to tell,” says David Kotok, chief investment officer at Cumberland Advisors. Kotok, who says he’s not sure if more dominoes will fall in the crisis, says he’s “still sitting on some cash reserves” but also “did some buying in the deep dip.” Quincy Krosby, market strate-

gist at Prudential Financial, wouldn’t rule out a Brexit bottom: “It could certainly be.” While it’s tough to pinpoint a true bottom, especially after a steep market fall, Krosby says she identified some positive signs in Tuesday’s trading session. The British pound, which hit a 31-year low Monday, stabilized Tuesday, rising 1%. A closely watched “fear gauge” also retreated, suggesting investors no longer are in risk-off mode. Gold, a haven in tough times that had been moving higher amid the turbulence, also gave up some gains. The market is calm — “for now,” says Gary Kaltbaum, president of Kaltbaum Capital Management. “Enough damage has been done for now,” he says, adding that “all bets are off if somebody else follows the U.K. (out of the EU),” but doubts that happens anytime soon.

Blue skies are likely ahead for cruise line
Q: Is it smooth sailing for Carnival? Matt Krantz
mkrantz@usatoday.com USA TODAY
A: Carnival shows that while cruises are still a relatively small niche in the travel industry, they can be a fairly stable and predictable one. The cruiseline operator behind brands such as Carnival Cruise Line, Princess Cruises and Holland America Line put up another quarter of strong growth in the May quarter, and the company is calling for the growth to continue. The company’s adjusted earnings during the quarter jumped nearly 100% to 49 cents a share. Hopes are riding high for the company’s August quarter, which is the busiest of the year. Analysts think the company will earn $1.87 a share during the quarter, which would be an increase of 7%, S&P Global Market Intelligence says. Going into next fiscal year, ended in November 2017, analysts think the company could earn $3.92 a share, which would be an increase of 18% from fiscal 2016. Meanwhile, the company is trading at roughly the same valuation of the market at 19 times trailing earnings. There are risks, certainly, especially with uncertainty in Europe. But analysts think the stock should be worth $59.25 in 18 months, which would be 37% higher than Tuesday’s price of roughly $43 a share.
Pfizer to expand in Asia with $350M biotech plant in China Kevin McCoy @kmccoynyc USA TODAY
U.S. drug-making giant Pfizer plans to invest roughly $350 million to develop a biotechnology center in China, increasing the company’s footprint in the world’s second-largest pharmaceutical market, the firm announced Monday. Pfizer shares closed up roughly 2% at $34.44 in Tuesday trading. The new facility, the New Yorkbased company’s first in China and third overall, will be built in

Hangzhou and will provide both biologic treatments — medications made in microorganisms, plants or animal cells — for patients in China and worldwide, Pfizer said. The plant will also make biosi-
milars, treatments akin to medications that already have U.S. Food and Drug Administration approval, the company said. The medications will help cancer patients and those with other ailments, as well as enable China to deal with the emergence of non-communicable diseases and an aging population, Pfizer said. China’s pharmaceutical market, second only to the one in the U.S., was worth an estimated $105 billion in 2014 and is forecast to expand to $200 billion by 2020, according to a 2015 report by Kelly Scientific Publications. However, the China market
poses challenges for pharmaceutical companies that try to achieve simultaneous global development and registration of new medicines, Wu Xiaobin, president of Pfizer Investment China, said in a September interview with China Daily. “In China, it can take up to eight years on average to register a treatment, compared with four in the U.S.,” Wu said. “As a result, patients are experiencing poor or delayed access to the latest medicines due to regulatory and reimbursement hurdles.” Wu added that Chinese authorities in recent years “have is-
sued a series of new policies to address this ‘drug lag.’ ” However, he said Pfizer also faces “inconsistent policies” over prices in China’s provinces, as well as challenges in hospital-level price negotiations. In February, China’s Food and Drug Administration said it would prioritize the approval process for new drugs with clear clinical value, including medications for children and the elderly, rare diseases, AIDS and malignant tumors, Reuters reported. Pfizer in May posted strong first-quarter earnings that topped Wall Street estimates.

It’s a jungle out there at the box office. In a summer when many tentpoles have fallen short of expectations, from Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Out of the Shadows to Independence Day: Resurgence, The Legend of Tarzan has its work cut out this holiday weekend. And part of the studio’s challenge is explaining this isn’t your grandfather’s Tarzan. The Legend of Tarzan (in theaters Friday) is prone to flashbacks but veers from being an origin story. Audiences meet Tarzan (Alexander Skarsgård) as a sophisticated London lord who chooses to go back to the Congo to save a nation enslaved by a Belgian king. His deadly jungle mission includes an empowered Jane (Margot Robbie) and an American envoy (Samuel L. Jackson). Tarzan doesn’t even wear a loincloth — he’s clad in a relative-

Tarzan (Skarsgård) returns to the jungle on a mission of mercy. ly modern pair of chinos. “What struck me when I read the script was how different it was from the old iterations of the movie,” Skarsgård says. “The fact that you meet the two characters as British aristocrats, and not the ‘Me Tarzan, you Jane.’ ” Opinion is divided on whether American audiences will welcome back the hero, who last hit cinemas in 1999 in Disney’s animated Tarzan, which grossed $171 million. Jeff Bock, box office analyst for Exhibitor Relations, calls the project outdated. “This has Lone Ranger written all over it,” he says. Or it could be “an unexpected
surprise,” says Erik Davis, managing editor of Fandango.com and Movies.com. “The success of something like The Jungle Book may play into teens’ and adults’ desire to see another story told in the jungle. And the trailers are pretty strong.” So to the wild Skarsgård has gone, posing for photo ops with animals in Sydney, joining Robbie in a Stop Ivory PSA and jokingly demonstrating how to nuzzle a computer-generated lion on Late Night With Seth Meyers. Trailers have been heavy on spectacle, including Tarzan’s madcap swings through the jungle and bombastic fights with chest-beating apes.
Tarzan could get an assist from Jane, who holds her own fighting baddie Christoph Waltz. But in a gender flip, it’s Skarsgård’s bod bared on billboards, not Robbie’s. “Hey, it’s Marketing 101,” says Robbie with a bit of a grin. “Tarzan shirtless is going to get us movie tickets.” Who is Tarzan aiming for? The trailers evoke “a Planet of the Apes vibe,” says Davis, and some experts say the gender-balanced marketing approach is a sign that Warner Bros. is trying for a four-quadrant movie, meaning a film that appeals to male and female moviegoers who are over and under 25. “On the surface, it seems easy — it’s Tarzan, it’s an action movie — but it seems like they’re courting the female audience in a big way,” says comScore senior media analyst Paul Dergarabedian, allowing that Tarzan and fellow newcomer The BFG have a “formidable competitor” in Finding Dory, which heads into its third weekend. “If you can get women going to see it because of Skarsgård but also because there’s a strong female character, that’s a smart marketing move.”

Spoiler alert! This story contains significant details from the Season 6 finale. Sunday’s Game of Thrones finale has its stars asking what’s coming next, too. The action- and story-packed Season 6 closer featured pivotal moments that reshape the Game, including Cersei Lannister blowing up much of Kings Landing and becoming queen; Jon Snow, with Sansa Stark at his side, consolidating power in the north; and Danys Targaryen forming alliances with Dorne, the Tyrells and the Greyjoys as she sails her new armada toward Westeros. “You read the script and then you go, ‘How are they going to pull this off?’ ” says Nikolaj Coster-Waldau, who plays Cersei’s brother and lover, Jaime. “I just thought the direction was so good, the first 10, 15 minutes, watching the members of court getting dressed and ready for trial, the way (director Miguel Sapochnik) built up to the explosion was amazing.”
HELEN SLOAN, HBO
The Game of Thrones Season 6 finale is full of answers, and yet more questions, setting up what could be the last two seasons. Jaime is “in shock and appalled” when he sees that Cersei has destroyed a major part of Kings Landing using wildfire, a nuclear bomb equivalent that he prevented an earlier king from using, Coster-Waldau says. “I don’t think he ever thought that Cersei would do such a thing,” he says. “I can’t wait to read the scripts for Season 7. I’m very curious to see how that relationship plays out. ... She truly is terrifying, I think.” Events of the finale set up what are expected to be the final two
seasons of the sprawling, Emmywinning series. “You’ve got all the pieces in play and now you’re getting closer to the end of the game. If you’ve told the story well, it will build momentum,” he says. “You can see all these characters on this collision course.” Season 6 went beyond George R.R. Martin’s best-selling book series, but that didn’t hurt the show, Coster-Waldau says. One revelation many Martin readers have been wondering about centers on the true parent-
age of Jon Snow, who has been identified as Ned Stark’s illegitimate son. In one of his supernatural visions, his half-brother, Bran (Isaac Hempstead Wright), learns that Jon is not Ned’s son and that his mother is Ned’s sister, Lyanna Stark, who died after childbirth. It also raises the possibility that Daenerys’ brother, Rhaegar, is Jon’s father, which would make him a Targaryen and an heir to the Iron Throne. The finale marks significant turns for all the Stark children, including the still young Bran, who must now shoulder important responsibilities as the powerful Three-Eyed Raven. His Stark siblings, now growing into their power, likely will play major roles, too. Jon Snow has inspired growing allegiance as the king in the north, while Sansa has used her hard-earned political skills to ensure his battle victory. Arya is back in Westeros, gaining murderous vengeance against Walder Frey, the man behind the murders of her mother and brother at the Red Wedding. Hempstead Wright can see the possibility of a family gathering. “They’re all on the same continent for once. Sansa and Jon are at Winterfell, Arya’s not far from there. Bran is not far in the North,” he says. “It all seems to be coming the way for a Stark reunion. I think they’d make quite the team.”

Kansas lands two D-Ends
FREE STATE CROSS COUNTRY
By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com
The Kansas football program on Tuesday pushed its commitment total in the Class of 2017 to 12, thanks to a couple of defensive ends who orally committed to KU within hours of each other. The first came from former Hawaii D-End Jamie Tago, a two-star prospect in the Class of 2014, who attended Hawaii for two seasons and transferred to Garden City Community College this offseason. The second came from the suddenly familiar and always-fertile state of Louisiana, where first-year KU running backs coach Tony Hull reeled in another player from his home state, this one in the form of 6-foot-4, 268-pound three-star prospect Troy James. If they follow through on their commitments, both players will bring the Jayhawks welcome depth at a position of need, given that KU will be losing senior defensive ends Damani Mosby and Anthony Olobia following the 2016 season. Just after 2 p.m. Tuesday, second-year KU coach David Beaty penned his customary #NeatDeal Tweet and, to pay homage to Tago’s home, included #Aloha with the Tweet. A few minutes later, Tago confirmed to Jon Kirby at JayhawkSlant.com that he had indeed committed to Kansas. “Things didn’t work out in Hawaii and coach (Jeff) Sims has given me an opportunity,” Tago told Kirby. “Being part of the Garden City program during spring football helped me get noticed by colleges. I want to thank coach Jeff Sims for the opportunity and the second chance he has given me to rejuvenate my career. I will do the best I can and hopefully make a name for Garden City and the KU programs.” Tago, 6-3, 250, will play this fall at Garden City and report to KU in time for the 2017 season. He was pursued by defensive line coach Michael Slater and recruiting coordinator Kenny Perry, and said the KU coaches liked his versatility as a defensive end who can stand up or play with a hand on the ground and a linebacker who can rush the quarterback.

FSHS workouts gaining steam By Bobby Nightengale bnightengale@ljworld.com
When Free State High cross country coach Steve Heffernan created an offseason running program several years ago, he was thrilled when five or six runners would show up each day. Since the start, the offseason running program has only grown. More than 40 runners were stretching outside of the Hillcrest Shopping Center on Monday, and the Firebirds have peaked with more than 50 runners on some days. “To see that many kids who are willing to come out, get up in the morning and go for a run with each other, it’s a neat deal absolutely,” Heffernan said. “We always get a little bit caught up in how well we want to do at state and those things, but I’d feel really bad if we were still stuck at five or six kids training in the summer.” The Firebirds, who run at 7 a.m. to avoid the heat, went

Some runners stop at two miles and other elite runners are done after six miles. One of the bonuses of the
summer workouts is the ability to help runners slowly increase their mileage, which helps prevents injuries. “I’d say it’s definitely very helpful. It gets you ready for the season,” senior Eli Jost said. “We don’t do a lot of
speed work, but we just go out and run and gradually up the distance with time.” Beyond the daily running, there’s extra excitement heading into the upcoming season. Free State’s girls cross country team, which tied for first place at state last season before falling to second on a tiebreaker, is expected to be one of the favorites to win a Class 6A state championship. The Firebirds bring back five of their top runners: seniors Emily Venters, Kiran Cordes and Abby Zenger, and sophomores Julia Larkin and Emma Hertig. All of them finished inside of the top 45 at last year’s state meet. “It’s pretty neat to think about,” Cordes said of the high expectations, “but I just want to see us try the best we can. Go out and have fun.” Heffernan said he’s excited to see the progress of Larkin and Hertig, who didn’t have much offseason training last Please see CROSS, page 3C

TENNESSEE COACH PAT SUMMITT holds up the net as her son, Tyler, look on after Tennessee won the 2008 national title in Tampa, Fla.
When Kansas women’s basketball coach Brandon Schneider first heard Tuesday’s news about the passing of legendary Tennessee Volunteers women’s basketball coach Pat Summitt, the second-year KU coach’s mind immediately flashed to Mount Rushmore. No, Summitt, who died peacefully at the age of 64 in her retirement facility early Tuesday morning after a battle with early onset dementia, was not a direct descendant of George Washington, Abe Lincoln, Teddy Roosevelt or Thomas Jefferson. But Schneider said
Schneider
Self
Summitt’s face certainly belonged on any Mount Rushmore of coaches, regardless of gender or sport. “She has to be on there for what she meant to her sport,” Schneider told the Journal-World. “I don’t think anyone’s done more to advance the game than coach Summitt did.” With more all-time wins
(1,098) than any coach in the history of the game — men or women — the eighttime NCAA champion and seven-time national coach of the year made an impact on coaches and coaching generation after generation and from coast to coast. “She set the bar so high,” Schneider said. “And she made coaches go out and work and fought so hard for the equality that women deserved. I just see her as the leader and the pioneer of a movement that meant so much to the game of basketball. And I don’t think she was ever someone who would give herself that crown.” KU men’s coach Bill Self,
who, with Summitt in 2008, was the co-recipient of the Winged Foot Award, given annually to the head coaches of the men’s and women’s NCAA champions, made it clear on Tuesday that he believed Summitt belonged in a class of her own. “We lost a legendary person and coach with (the) passing of Pat Summitt,” Self wrote. “No one has done it better. She set a standard that all should strive for.” More than most, Schneider experienced Summitt’s impact from an early age.

Cardinals snuff out KC rally Kansas City, Mo. (ap) — Royals starter Yordano Ventura returned from an eightgame suspension for his role in a benches-clearing fight, only to get slapped around by the St. Louis offense on Tuesday night. It wasn’t even the worst thing to happen to Kansas City, either. That was the moment AllStar outfielder Lorenzo Cain reached for his hamstring while trying to beat out a single in the seventh inning of an 8-4 loss. Cain immediately left the game and declined to speak to reporters in the clubhouse, though he appeared to be walking without much of a limp. “I wish I had an answer for you but it doesn’t happen that quick,” Royals manager Ned Yost said. “We’ll have an MRI soon as they can get him in. We’ll determine how much fluid is on it and what the extent is.” As for Ventura — well, Yost didn’t have much of an answer for that performance, either. “I thought he was OK. I was really pleased he stayed with himself,” Yost said. “He was inconsistent at times with his arm slot, but a lot of good signs out there for me.” Just about everybody in the Cardinals lineup contributed to their offense, while Michael Wacha (4-7) allowed four runs over six bumpy innings — he served up nine hits and three walks. “We could have helped him with a couple plays we need to make,” Cardinals manager Mike Matheny said. His bullpen nearly gave away the win, too: Seung Hwan Oh loaded the bases with one out in the ninth before getting pinch-hitter Alex Gordon to pop out and inducing Eric Hosmer into a routine fielder’s choice. “I don’t want to put the team in that situation,” Oh said through a translator. The cross-state series shifts to St. Louis for two more games beginning Wednesday night. Ventura actually breezed through the first inning on just 12 pitches, but trouble came promptly in the second. He gave up three hits, walked two and Yadier Molina, Kolten Wong and Greg Garcia drove in runs. He appeared to settle down over the next couple innings before more trouble hit in the fifth. Matt Carpenter started it with a homer to center, the 48th allowed by a Kansas City pitcher this month — the club record is 51 in May 2006. Matt Adams added a sacrifice fly later in the inning to make it 5-2.

IN THIS JAN. 28, 2013, FILE PHOTO, FORMER TENNESSEE WOMEN’S BASKETBALL COACH PAT SUMMITT SMILES as a banner is raised in her honor before the team’s NCAA college basketball game against Notre Dame in Knoxville, Tenn. Summitt, the winningest coach in Division I college basketball history who boosted the women’s game, has died at 64.
DI’s winningest coach Summitt dies at age 64 Knoxville, Tenn. — Pat Summitt put women’s basketball on her back, breaking down barriers with her indomitable spirit and demanding respect for female athletes on her way to becoming the winningest coach in Division I college basketball history. The woman who lifted the sport to national prominence staring down players and officials with her icy glare will be remembered for far more than the impressive numbers she piled up over 38 seasons, including eight national titles. Summitt, 64, died peacefully Tuesday morning at Sherrill Hill Senior Living in Knoxville surrounded by those who loved her most, according to her son, Tyler. Her death, five years and two months after being diagnosed with early onset dementia, Alzheimer’s type, resulted in an outpouring of reactions from the president to people who never played for Summitt. “Pat started playing college hoops before Title IX and started coaching before the NCAA recognized women’s basketball as a sport,” President Barack Obama said. “When she took the helm at Tennessee as a 22-year-old, she had to wash her players’ uniforms; by the time Pat stepped down as the Lady Vols’ head coach, her teams wore eight championship rings and had cut down nets in sold-out stadiums.” Obama added Summitt’s Hall of Fame career tells of the historic progress toward equality in American athletics the coach helped advance. “Her legacy, however, is measured much more by the generations of young women and men who admired Pat’s intense competitiveness and character, and as a result found in themselves the confidence to practice hard, play harder, and live with courage on and off the court,” Obama said. Summitt helped grow college women’s basketball as her Lady Vols dominated the sport in the late 1980s and 1990s, winning six titles in 12 years. Tennessee — the only school she coached — won NCAA titles in 1987, 1989, 1991, 1996-98 and 2007-08. Summitt had a career record of 1,098-208 in 38 seasons, plus 18 NCAA Final Four appearances. Former Lady Vols forward Candace Parker said Summitt’s impact went way beyond Knoxville. “She’s changed the way women’s basketball is played,” Parker said. “She’s changed the nature of women’s basketball.” Summitt announced in 2011 at age 59 that she’d been diagnosed with early onset dementia. She coached one more season before stepping down. At her retirement, Summitt’s eight national titles ranked behind the 10 won by former UCLA men’s coach John Wooden. UConn coach Geno Auriemma passed Summitt after she retired. When she stepped down, Summitt called her coaching career a “great ride.” Tyler Summitt said Tuesday that his mother had battled her toughest opponent with fierce determination. “Even though it’s incredibly difficult to come to terms that she is no longer with us, we can all find peace in knowing she no longer carries the heavy burden of this disease,” Tyler Summitt said in a statement. Peyton Manning, who sought Summitt’s advice about returning to Tennessee for his senior season or going to the NFL, said it would have been a great experience to play for her.

Upstart Willis faces Federer London — Even Roger Federer appreciates the novelty of the journey that brought his outof-nowhere opponent to their second-round match at Wimbledon today. Who wouldn’t be fascinated by the tale? Marcus Willis is a 25-year-old British tennis instructor who charges about $40 an hour for lessons, lives with his parents, is ranked 772nd in the world, and had never played a tour-level — let alone Grand Slam — match until a victory Monday. He was ready to give up on his goal of becoming a full-time professional player until being persuaded by his new girlfriend to stick with it.
LJWorld.com/highschool • Facebook.com/LJWorldpreps • Twitter.com/LJWpreps
He was the last man invited to a playoff for low-ranked Brits to try to earn a wild-card entry for Wimbledon qualifying, won three matches at that event, then another three in qualifying rounds to get into the main draw at the All England Club. And now Willis will set foot on the grass of Centre Court, the most hallowed ground in the game, to face Federer, considered by many to be the greatest tennis player in history, owner of seven Wimbledon titles and a record 17 Grand Slam trophies overall. “There’s a lot of cool things that are part of the story,” Federer said. “Probably don’t even know where to start, to be quite honest.” Looking at the matchup from a tactical standpoint, the third-seeded Federer said: “He can just go and check out all my matches, and he knows everything about me. He’s got an advantage there.” Yes, not much video out there of Willis, who is sure to hear plenty of support from his countrymen. It’s early in the tournament, but he certainly has become the talk of the town. “Look, I mean, anyone can beat anyone in the draw. Amazing things do happen in sport, sometimes. Obviously Roger’s a massive, massive favorite going into the match. I would expect him to win the match fairly comfortably,” said No. 2-seeded Andy Murray, the 2013 Wimbledon champion. “But Marcus’ game style, it’s pretty old school,” continued Murray, who got a look at the unheralded player’s strokes when Willis spent some time with Britain’s Davis Cup team as a teen. “He serve-and-volleys a lot. He uses a lot of slice. He hits the ball fairly flat. He has great hands. He has great feel.” Willis clearly is enjoying the ride and he couldn’t stop smiling when he was asked Monday about the prospect of facing Federer. “I didn’t think I’d be answering these questions in a million years,” Willis said. “He’s a complete player. He’s a legend of the game. I’ve got a lot of respect for him. But I’ve got to go out and try to beat him.” Because of rain Tuesday that forced the suspension in progress or complete postponement of a total of 30 matches, the Day 3 schedule is packed with a mix of first- and second-round contests. The bad news: There are more showers in the forecast.
COLLEGE WORLD SERIES
Chanticleers force Game 3 Omaha, Neb. — Connor Owings’ bloop RBI single sparked a three-run eighth inning, and Coastal Carolina beat Arizona 5-4 on Tuesday night to send the College World Series finals to a deciding Game 3. Mike Morrison was sensational in his first start of the season, helping the Chanticleers rebound from a 3-0 loss to the Wildcats in the opener. The teams meet again Wednesday night to decide the national championship. Owings was batting .125 (3 for 24) in the CWS when he stepped to the plate against Cameron Ming in the eighth. The Big South player of the year fought off a high inside pitch, sending it into short left field to drive in Anthony Marks from second base with the go-ahead run. After Zach Remillard chased Ming (3-3) with a double, G.K. Young followed with a two-run single off Alfonso Rivas to give the Chanticleers a three-run lead. Arizona (49-23) made it a one-run game in the bottom half after Bobby Holmes (7-2) walked two straight to load the bases with none out. One run came home on Justin Behnke’s groundout, and another scored when shortstop Michael Paez bobbled Louis Boyd’s routine grounder. With Coastal Carolina (54-18) running low on pitching, coach Gary Gilmore turned to his senior closer to start a game for the third time in his career. Morrison responded with career highs of 62⁄3 innings, 103 pitches and 10 strikeouts. He allowed six hits and two runs.

Tracking Ellis’ chances with Mavs When the 2016 NBA Draft came and went without Kansas forward Perry Ellis getting selected in the two-round, 60-pick extravaganza, there was no need for the 6-foot-8 prospect to panic. A rookie free agent, Ellis knew he would soon be weighing his options as his agent tracked down possible contract offers or opportunities to play in the NBA Summer League. Sure enough, Dallas added the Wichita native to its summer roster less than 24 hours after the conclusion of the draft. A summer position, of course, doesn’t mean Ellis will play for the Mavericks during the 2016-17 season. It’s more like an internship. It’s simply a step in the right direction as the 22-year-old, who averaged 17.0 points and 5.8 rebounds in his final season with KU, chases after his professional dream. Ellis’ next few weeks playing for Dallas will determine what comes next, whether that turns out to be an invite to training camp, a guaranteed contract or playing professional basketball outside of the NBA. So as we try and figure out, before the summer league even begins, just how likely Ellis is to stay with the Mavs and help out owner Mark Cuban and legendary forward Dirk Nowitzki, let us check out previous Dallas summer rosters to try and get a feel for how the organization utilizes those players following their July auditions. Upon scouring the

Rated as the No. 4 recruit out of American Samoa in his high school class, Tago was on the Hawaii roster in both 2014 and 2015 and red-shirted in 2014. Last year, as a red-shirt freshman, Tago played in just three games on special teams. He will be a sophomore at Garden City this fall and will report to Kansas with two years of eligibility remaining. James comes to KU from Madison Prep Academy in Baton Rouge, La. He joins fourstar defensive back Mike Lee, three-star wide receiver Takulve Williams and three-star athlete Travis Jordan as the first four Louisiana prospects to join Hull in Kansas. James announced his commitment on Twitter around 5 p.m. After thanking a host of people who helped him get to this point, James simply wrote, “I will be spending the next 3 to 4 years advancing my education and playing football at Kansas University.” In what seemed to be a response to James’ news, Hull also hit up Twitter with a “More boots on the ground in Lawrence baby!!!” Tweet of his own. James picked KU over offers from Arkansas, Cincinnati, Colorado State, Indiana, Memphis, North Carolina State, SMU and Wake Forest, among others. KU’s 2017 class, which already ranked sixth in the Big 12 according to Rivals.com’s updated list, now features six three-star prospects and one four-star prospect (Lee).

Mavericks’ teams from the previous five summer leagues, players in Ellis’ situation haven’t stuck around. The Dallas players who have turned offseason playing time in Las Vegas into actual regular-season minutes the following season have been draft picks or young guys in the earliest stages of their career who already had played for the Mavs. Plus, the undrafted rookie free agents Dallas brought in between 2010 and 2015 (summer league was canceled in 2011 due to an anticipated lockout) never played a single minute for the organization during the ensuing season. Using recent history as an indicator, it doesn’t appear Ellis has much of a shot at becoming a full fledged member of the Mavericks. However, each player’s situation is unique and Ellis has some factors working in his favor. For one thing, Ellis is a consensus All-American. That doesn’t mean an NBA team will just hand him a contract. But, given his pedigree and talent, he should enter this trial with confidence. Ellis is more than capable of producing in summer league games and reminding Dallas that

KANSAS UNIVERSITY’S PERRY ELLIS (34) GET TO THE BUCKET pat Maryland’s Robert Carter (4) during an NCAA Tournament game March 24 in Louisville, Ky. he is a different player than most undrafted free agents the team has tried out in the past. Also, this year the Mavericks only made one draft pick, taking Purdue center A.J. Hammons 46th overall, in the second round. The organization could take a different approach to rookie summer players now, because it wasn’t able to utilize the draft as well this time around. If the Mavs were bringing in two or three draft picks, it would be inherently more difficult to be swayed by a young free agent. But with fewer roster spots slotted to go to draftees, you could see Dallas taking a
longer look at Ellis and Florida’s Dorian FinneySmith, who is in the same boat. While Ellis spends the next several weeks putting in the work required to make an NBA roster, the Mavericks’ success in free agency could determine how likely they are to sign a rookie to an inexpensive deal. At this point, the only core players Dallas has under contract are Wesley Matthews, J.J. Barea, Devin Harris and Justin Anderson. That means Cuban has loads of room to spend, spend and spend some more in free agency. Every summer Dallas goes after the biggest
names available, and if Cuban can land Hassan Whiteside and/or Mike Conley and he wants to bring back Dallas free agents Nowitzki (obviously) and Chandler Parsons, while also adding a few less expensive NBA veterans, there will only be so much money left under the cap to fill out the roster. The more the Mavs spend, the more attractive it becomes to sign a young bench player on a cheap contract. On top of all that, Dallas isn’t the only NBA team that will be watching Ellis. Scouts, coaches and general managers from all 30 teams attend summer league games.
If Ellis plays well and the Mavericks still don’t want to keep him around, another franchise can swoop in and sign him instead. Case in point: the Mavericks summer squad in 2010 featured a little known guard out of Harvard named Jeremy Lin. Lin never played for Dallas. In fact, he only played 29 games for Golden State the following season. But the next year, Lin became a sensation in New York and has had no trouble finding work in the NBA since. Ellis’ journey may begin with the Mavericks, but there’s no telling where it will go from here.

Greene, Traylor to play in summer league By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com
Former Kansas University guard Brannen Greene will play NBA summer league for the Memphis Grizzlies, while forward Jamari Traylor will compete for the Indiana Pacers, it was revealed Tuesday. The 6-foot-7 Greene, who like Traylor was not selected in last week’s NBA Draft, averaged 5.4 points a game his junior season. He hit 31 of 63 three-pointers for 49.2 percent. The 6-8 Traylor averaged 2.9 points and 3.2 boards per game. He had 33 blocks in 37 games his senior campaign. The Grizzlies play in the Las Vegas summer league July 8-18. The Pacers will practice this week then open play in the
Orlando summer league starting Saturday. U n drafted former KU forGreene w a r d Hunter Mickelson, who still could possibly land a spot on an NBA summer league Traylor team, will play in the Czech Republic for Turi Svitavy if he’s not in the NBA. The Czech team has introduced the 6-9 Mickelson on its Website at the address http://bit.ly/291fi0D. He
averaged 2.3 points and 2.4 boards with 23 blocks in 26 games his senior season. Former KU guard Wayne Selden Jr., who also was not drafted, is expected to accept a summer league offer from an NBA team in the near future. “For those of you asking about Wayne Selden Jr. and summer league, he’s weighing options. He turned down draftand-stash opportunities on draft night,” wrote Alex Kennedy of Basketball Insiders. Draftand-stash is when an NBA team will draft a player with the stipulation he plays in the DLeague or overseas, at least at first. Undrafted Perry Ellis will play for the Dallas Mavericks in the Vegas
summer league and second-round pick Cheick Diallo for New Orleans in that league as well. NBA hopefuls do not become wealthy by playing summer league basketball. Hoopshype.com reported that the compensation for 2015 summer league players was a per diem of about $127 per day, plus a hotel room and travel expenses. Players also sign an injury waiver allowing the team not to be liable in case of injury. l

To be honest, some of the kids are so brand new to running they didn’t know what it all meant. Now we’ve had kind of a taste of it.” Along with the girls’ team, there is plenty of potential for the FSHS boys runners.

This year it’ll be a little bit different because they will all be fairly young. But when they are juniors and seniors, it’s going to be exciting.”
With big expectations and strong potential, the Firebirds are excited to see what they can accomplish during the upcoming season. But during the summer

Writes Ford: “Jackson is an athletic, dynamic wing who excels on both ends of the court. His combination of length, athleticism and motor is outstanding. He’s also a very good and willing passer who displays a terrific basketball IQ. He has a nose for the ball on both ends. You’ll find few players in this draft — or any draft — who play with his competitive fire at such a young age. He already looks like he’s a consistent jump shot away from being a superstar in the NBA.”
and watch a game with her was just an incredible experience.” Asked what aspect of her philosophy — outlined in her book as the Definite Dozen: Rules to Live By — had the most profound impact on him throughout his coaching career, Schneider pointed to the way Summitt respected the game and those who played it. “I remember watching one of those HBO specials that went behind the scenes and showed glimpses of her practices,” Schneider began. “And she was talking to those young women like they were basketball players, not girls. “It was no holds barred, and I always thought that was so cool how she did that because that’s what those girls wanted, to be respected as basketball players first and foremost.”

MAJOR-LEAGUE ROUNDUP
Rangers rout Yankees The Associated Press
American League Rangers 7, Yankees 1 New York — Cole Hamels breezed through seven shutout innings to win his fourth consecutive start, Adrian Beltre homered and drove in three runs, and Texas kept rolling. The Rangers have won four in a row and 12 of 14 overall, and eight straight on the road. Hamels (9-1) yielded six singles and struck out seven in outpitching CC Sabathia (5-5). Yankees slugger Carlos Beltran left in the first with a tight right hamstring. He had an MRI that was “clean” and is day to day, manager Joe Girardi said. “This homestand has not went the way we wanted it so far and we need to turn it around,” Girardi said following his team’s third straight defeat. Hamels (9-1) yielded six harmless singles and struck out seven, winning his ninth consecutive decision on the road dating to last August.
Twins 4, White Sox 0 Chicago — Brian Dozier homered twice and drove in four runs to lead Minnesota. It was the ninth straight game with an extra-base hit for Dozier, the longest streak for the franchise since it moved to Minnesota in 1961. The Twins beat Chicago for first time in seven tries. Kyle Gibson (1-5) pitched seven innings of five-hit ball. Dozier pulled both homers off Jose Quintana (5-8).

An edition of the Lawrence Journal-World
FOR SUMMER, KEEP IT COOL By Katie Workman Associated Press
I
could eat quarts of gazpacho all summer long. When I set about making this version, the goal was a gazpacho with great, fresh tomato taste, but even deeper flavor. The solution was simple: roast the tomatoes first. The sweet, layered result is well worth the slight extra hands-off time it took to bake them. If you feel like your tomatoes are perfect, then skip the roasting and get right to the chopping. You can use peppers that are all the same color, but the blend of hues won’t be as varied. You also can swap in one green pepper; some people love their slightly more bitter flavor.
In a perfect world, all of the vegetables in a gazpacho might be finely diced, and look pretty and symmetrical. I don’t happen to live in a perfect world, and I happen to love my food processor, so I just use that to pulse the vegetables in batches so they chop evenly. Is it as pretty as dicing? Nope. Does it taste as good? Yup. What to do with all of that extra time? I’m sure you’ll find something good.
Roasted Tomato Gazpacho Ingredients: 12 plum tomatoes 2 tablespoons olive oil 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar 1 teaspoon sugar 1 teaspoon kosher salt
2 seedless cucumbers, skin on, cut into 1-inch chunks 1 red bell pepper, cut into 1-inch pieces 1 yellow bell pepper, cut into 1-inch pieces 1 red orange pepper, cut into 1-inch pieces 1 red onion, cut into 1-inch pieces 6 scallions, trimmed and cut into 1-inch pieces 2 to 3 cups tomato juice 3 tablespoons white wine, champagne, or white balsamic vinegar Hot sauce to taste
Directions: Preheat the oven to 400 F. Spray a rimmed baking sheet with nonstick cooking spray, or lightly oil the sheet. Cut the tomatoes in half lengthwise and place them cut side up on the prepared baking sheet. Drizzle
them evenly with the olive oil and the vinegar, and then sprinkle them with the sugar and salt. Roast them for about 45 to 50 minutes, until they are lightly caramelized and starting to collapse. Add half of the tomatoes, cucumbers, peppers, onion and scallions into the food processor. Pulse to chop the vegetables as finely as you would like them in the finished soup. Turn the chopped vegetables into a bowl, and repeat with the remaining vegetables. Remove half of this batch of chopped vegetables to the bowl, and then let the food processor run for about 20 seconds until the remaining couple of cups of vegetables are pureed. Add those to the bowl. Add the tomato juice and vinegar, as well as hot sauce to taste. Stir, and adjust the salt and pepper as desired. Refrigerate the soup for at least 2 hours, and up to 2 days. Serve chilled.

chips on both sides of the gray-ashed charcoal when you put the ribs on the grill. And, don’t forget, ribs can only be smoked using indirect heat. The final thing to know is that the best way to test for doneness is to make sure that the meat has receded from the end of the bones. You should be able to bend the rack without breaking it in pieces. The best ribs should be tender but have a little chew left.

ature of 300-325 F. Both work well, but you get a crispier, more roasted flavor at the higher temperature as the fat renders out completely. It’s really a question of style and taste as both are good. I use soaked wood chips regardless of the temperature or the fuel. Because the wood is the final flavoring element, it is as important as the quality of the meat and the rub. If you are using a gas grill, you can make a smoker box out of heavy-duty aluminum foil and fill it with wet wood chips as the gas grill preheats with all burners on high. The chips will start to smoke and smolder and will continue even as you reduce the heat to a medium-low indirect heat. Make sure to place the chips in the upperleft hand corner of the grill under the cooking grates. If you place the chips on the cooking grates, they are so far from the heat element that they won’t smoke. Also, wet the chips so that they will smoke and not erupt into flames. On a charcoal grill, simply toss a handful of wet wood
