After protest at meeting, commissioners sign letters of solidarity By Rochelle Valverde rvalverde@ljworld.com

After a group of about 20 people took over a Lawrence City Commission meeting and staged a sit-in Tuesday that delayed the commission’s regular agenda by about 45 minutes, commissioners at a specially called meeting on Wednesday acceded to the group’s demand and issued letters of solidarity with Black Lives Matter and with American Indians protesting the Dakota Access Pipeline. The group demanded the letters of solidarity Tuesday evening, with some members of the group saying that delaying action was “white su-

Letters CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A

The group sat on the floor of the meeting room with locked arms, frequently finger-snapping approval of one another’s comments, and said they would not leave until the commission issued letters of solidarity with the two groups. Commissioners did not indicate they were opposed to issuing letters, but initially tried to assuage the group by saying a letter would be written within 24 hours. That offer was not immediately accepted. After 45 minutes of discussion, a resolution was reached. The commission decided to issue an initial statement of support Tuesday night and called for a continuation of the meeting Wednesday to issue official letters. The group then left of its own accord.

Letters issued Wednesday During Wednesday’s meeting, commissioners read two letters of solidarity: one in support of Black Lives Matter and the other in support of American Indians protesting the Dakota Access Pipeline. The drafts of the letters were read aloud and feedback was sought from the approximately 30 people attending. Many expressed appreciation for the letters, and the drafts were adopted without revision. Carpenter began the public comment in response to the letters by thanking the commission, and noted that the final drafts of the letters “definitely felt well thought out.” Members of the group had previously said that the Black Lives Matter letter was originally requested weeks ago, and Carpenter added that it should not have taken a sit-in to get the commission to act. “Because of the methods that we had to utilize to bring about these two letters, once again you’ve allowed the marginalized to be targeted,” Carpenter said. “So now we get framed as bullies. So in the future, what I need you guys to do is to do this on your own accord so it can be sincere and authentic.” The protesters demanded that they be invited to future meetings of the City Commission, which are open to everyone. Meeting times are public record. When asked by those gathered what actions

MAYOR MIKE AMYX READS A LETTER drafted as a showing of support for the Black Lives Matter movement on Wednesday at City Hall. the commission would take to show it supported people of color, Mayor Mike Amyx said the commission would work with people of color in the community and continue to listen. “I think that you have our pledge that we’re going to be working together on a whole lot of things,” Amyx said. “I think that we can be held accountable that way.” The city has several boards, including the Citizen Advisory Board for Fair and Impartial Policing, and Amyx said invitations to attend such board meetings could be sent to members of the Lawrence Black Lives Matter chapter. Caleb Stephens, an organizer with the Lawrence chapter of Black Lives Matter, stressed the importance of full participation with the city’s various governing and advisory boards. Stephens said that he thought the letters were a good step, but that the commission needed to continue to recognize power dynamics. “We have to reach up, even though it’s not our job, and dismantle things so that y’all can see the humanity that we function with,” Stephens said. “If you all don’t stay in that place and if you all don’t continue to check your privilege and realize that these things are essential and they have to be done in order to serve all of your community and not just the white, male, straight, wealthy here in Lawrence, then we will continue to hurt.”

Dakota Access Pipeline Stephens and others involved with Black Lives Matter also said support of the city’s American

Indian population was a priority. A group of Lawrence residents and local Black Lives Matter organizers traveled to North Dakota over the weekend to protest the Dakota Access Pipeline, and coordinated the sit-in as an act of solidarity between the two groups. The Standing Rock Sioux Tribe has filed a complaint against the pipeline, which will not run through Kansas, and members of various tribes have also protested its construction. The tribe succeeded Tuesday in getting a federal judge to temporarily stop construction on some, but not all, of a $3.8 billion four-state oil pipeline, according to The Associated Press. That controversy has ties to many in the Lawrence community. Lawrence is home to Haskell Indian Nations University, the only federally operated tribal university in the country. Hanna White Bull, a member of the Standing Rock tribe, told commissioners that she was thankful for the letter and that it represented a significant statement. “What we’re really trying to accomplish is to give our grandchildren and great grandchildren a chance at having fresh drinking water, or a chance at life even,” White Bull said. “This may seem like a pebble in the water, but it’s a great thing, honestly.”

First step After the meeting, several of those in attendance shook hands with the commissioners. City staff handed out copies of the signed letters of solidarity, and several took smiling photos with the

letters in hand. Tyesha Ignacio, a member of the Diné tribe, said after the meeting that one thing the letter does is bring awareness to the protest of the pipeline, which can help more community conversations happen. “This is a good first step, to be acknowledged like this,” Ignacio said. “But I do think there is continuous support and help that needs to happen at the pipeline. There are people on the ground there, and it’s a real community effort that is run based off of information and donations.” Lawrence native Landri James, a member of the Prairie Band Potawatomi Nation, echoed that idea. James, a senior at the University of Kansas and president of the First Nations Student Association, said that it wasn’t a matter of if the pipeline would someday leak and contaminate the water supply, but when. “I’d like to think of this more of a concrete way, of proof, that they’re aware now,” James said. “That’s the main thing. This is a call for help because we’re just students. Because they can do something; they can help. They have many more resources at their disposal than we have.”

Tactics Some, however, disagreed with the method of the group. During the sit-in Tuesday evening, an audience member who did not give his name criticized the group for disrupting the general business of the commission. He was accused by the group of being “a white supremacist.” During the meeting Wednesday, several of the group

members who spoke also referenced critical statements made online regarding their methods. Ignacio said getting that conversation started isn’t easy, and that such an approach can be necessary. “It’s unfortunate that it had to start the way it did, with a sit-in and it being kind of abrasive like that, but if that’s what it takes to get this conversation going, that needs to be happening, then that’s what it will take,” Ignacio said. “But I am appreciative that we have this acknowledgement here and I hope that it leads to further support for Standing Rock and Black Lives Matter.” When asked if she was concerned if the events of Tuesday and Wednesday set a precedent, Vice Mayor Leslie Soden said she saw it as an opportunity for more people to learn the existing channels to be added to the commission’s agenda. “We have a democratic process that has rules and regulations and a lot of that has to do with setting agendas for meetings and public notification of that agenda so that if citizens want to come and speak about an item, they are welcome to,” Soden said. Soden also noted that the commission hadn’t met since the letter of solidarity with Black Lives Matter was first requested, and said that she had already discussed adding it as a future agenda item. Nevertheless, Soden recognized that the rules and regulations governing the commission — such as the Kansas Open Meetings Act — aren’t something she expects to be common knowledge. “We want people to be involved with City Hall, absolutely,” Soden said. “But there is a certain way that we operate and that’s for maximum democracy, that’s not to make people feel like they are being dismissed or anything like that. That’s just how we function, and it can be frustrating.” Soden also pointed out that she also saw the letters as a first step of what will be a continuing process. “It’s important for people to know that this is the beginning, this isn’t the end,” Soden said. Commissioners said that further discussion of the topic had been added to the commission’s future agenda items, and would be a part of an upcoming work session.

County agrees to share cost of U.S. 59 signal with KDOT Elvyn Jones Twitter: @ElvynJ

The Douglas County Commission on Wednesday approved contributing 20 percent of the cost of installing a traffic signal at the intersection of West County Road 458 and U.S. Highway 59. Douglas County Public Works Director Keith Browning told the com-

mission the project’s total cost would be $170,000. The state was asking the county to contribute about $34,000 toward the signal. “That seems reasonable,” Browning said. “The signal is needed now. It shows good faith if we participate.” KDOT officials have indicated the signal at the intersection just south

of the Wakarusa River about a mile south of Lawrence would be installed in the fall of 2017, Browning said. The traffic light was much discussed this spring

as KDOT considered with local jurisdictions four options for the Kansas Highway 10/Kasold Road intersection. KDOT eventually selected an option that will restrict turns to and from

Kasold Road and East 1259 Road at the interchange to right-on, right-off. During those spring discussions, KDOT officials said the only option that would require the immediate placement of a light at U.S. 59/County Road 458 would be the closing of K-10/Kasold Drive intersection. Roger Anderson, who lives near U.S. 59/County

Road 458 and uses it on his commutes to Lawrence, referenced that earlier KDOT stance in voicing opposition to the county helping to pay for the signal. He told commissioners he had no difficulty getting through the intersection and saw no justification for the signal.

Since confirming the date with ARISS (Amateur Radio on the International Space Station) officials last month, the library has received dozens of space-centric questions from the curious public, eventually narrowing the inquiries down to just 20. A few lucky teens will be able to pose those questions to Japanese astronaut Takuya Onishi starting at 11:25 a.m. Friday in the library auditorium, 707 Vermont St. Turns out, a lot of people are interested in the dietary and bathroom habits of astronauts serving on the space station, said Miriam Wallen, the Lawrence Public Library’s Teen Zone librarian. Because those questions are so frequently asked and relatively easy to find through a bit of online searching, the library already posted answers on Facebook. And then there’s the issue of time. The chat, which is being facilitated through the Douglas County Amateur Radio Club, will happen over the course of just 10 minutes — “that’s the time it takes the Space Station to go from horizon to horizon above us,” Wallen said. “It’s completely dependent on radio technology,” she added. “What we’re going to be doing is the Radio Club has built a special antenna that will be tracking the space station and actually turning with it as it passes overhead.” The event marks the first contact with the Space Station to occur in Lawrence, as far as Wallen knows.

Although she’s a firsttime vendor, HoytReed has attended the festival in the past, She said she was impressed with the size of the festival crowd and the quality and variety of booths it draws. Hoyt-Reed started taking stained glass classes at the Lawrence Arts Center about five years ago.

foreign space agencies in addition to an international consortium of amateur radio organizations, is open to schools and other educational institutions worldwide. “As I read more and more, I thought this was a really amazing opportunity,” said Wallen, who first learned of ARISS through an NASA email update several months ago. The program is intended, through direct contact with International Space Station crewmembers, to inspire young people around the world to pursue careers in STEM fields. After securing approval from ARISS earlier this year, library staffers were given a six-month window within which the Space Station contact could potentially take place. Wallen said she was officially notified of the specific day and time late last month. Locally, the Lawrence Creates Makerspace and U.S. Bank are also sponsoring the event, which will include paper rockets on the library lawn, air rocket launching, and activities hosted by local entities such as KU’s Natural History Museum

and the Spencer Museum of Art. Festivities begin at 10:30 a.m., with the main event (Wallen advises guests to settle into their seats early) slated for 11:25 a.m. sharp. While everybody is welcome to attend, the question-asking spots are reserved for the library’s teen patrons, all of whom filled out an application before being selected by library staff. Wallen hopes the event will open the minds of library visitors, young and old, to the notion that even the most seemingly “remote” possibilities are more accessible than we might assume. “The idea that you can use a ham radio to contact the Space Station just really blew my mind. You know they have to be using radio in other kinds of communication to be able to talk to people up there, but the idea that local radio amateurs would have the ability to do this, I thought was really amazing,” Wallen said. “To be able to see that is really cool.” — K-12 education reporter Joanna Hlavacek can be reached at 832-6388.

activities for children, he said. The Lawrence City Band, Billy Ebeling and the Late for Dinner Band, the Beer Bellies, and the Lonnie Ray Blues Band will be among the musical acts playing from noon to 4 p.m. at the William Kelly Bandstand, Peterson said. At 4 p.m., spirit dancer Dennis Rogers will present an educational show on Native American music and dance, Peterson said. With the forecast calling for pleasant weather on Sunday, Peterson expects a festival crowd of 6,000 to 8,000 visitors. In the event of rain, it will be postponed until Sunday, Sept. 18.

Douglas County Sustainability Director Eileen Horn and Fairground Maintenance Director David Sparkes estimate the lighting switch will reduce energy costs in the building by $552 a month.

“I’ve always been interested,” she said. “I like how the sun shines through the glass.” She previously kept her pieces, gave them to friends or made them available for charity auctions. That changed when she was able to devote more time to her art and started her business, which also offers classes and sells supplies for stained glass artists. In addition to selling about 30 pieces of stained glass, she hopes the festival will help build awareness of the supplies and classes her shop offers, HoytReed said. — County reporter Elvyn Jones can be reached at 832-7166.

Ripple effect Recent earthquake felt in Lawrence exposes risks of variations in well injection rules.

hat happens in Oklahoma doesn’t stay in Oklahoma, at least not when it comes to earthquakes. That was evident Saturday morning when a 5.6 magnitude earthquake centered in Pawnee, Okla., shook residents awake in Lawrence some 250 miles to the northeast. The earthquake was the biggest in Oklahoma since 2011 when a 5.6 magnitude quake struck Prague in the center of the state. Saturday’s earthquake was felt from Dallas to Des Moines and from St. Louis to Fayetteville, Ark. Fortunately no serious injuries were reported in connection with the quake and damage was limited. Still, Saturday was an alarming reminder of the increasingly dangerous connection between wastewater produced by oil and gas drilling and earthquakes. No one can say for sure that Saturday’s quake was caused by drilling but note that the first step Oklahoma officials took in response to the earthquake was to order 37 of the state’s 4,000 underground disposal wells to be shut down. It is these disposal wells that are at the center of the quake controversy. Disposal wells are used to get rid of wastewater — a mixture of saltwater, oil and chemicals — that results from drilling. The wastewater is injected into wells deep underground, oftentimes even deeper than the pockets of oil and gas. The Associated Press reports that in Kansas one barrel of oil produces 16 barrels of wastewater polluted with oil and salt. It is the disposal of wastewater underground that geologists say is responsible for the spike in earthquakes in southern Kansas and northern Oklahoma, a region that now rivals Northern California as the country’s most earthquake prone. After going from no earthquakes in 2012 to more than 120 in 2014, Kansas responded by placing limits on the volume of wastewater that is injected in the most earthquake-prone areas of Kansas. Those caps have produced a measurable decrease in seismic activity and the Kansas Corporation Commission recently expanded the caps to other quake-prone areas. Pennsylvania has severely limited the number of wells and most of the state’s wastewater is shipped to Ohio for disposal. Officials in Texas are increasingly mandating the recycling of wastewater as a means of dealing with drought. By contrast, Oklahoma has been slower to respond, only starting to shut down wells earlier this year. Variations in state guidelines in wastewater well injections are a risky proposition, especially for neighboring states. Unlike state regulations, earthquakes know no boundaries as Saturday’s event demonstrated all too well.

From the Daily Kansas Tribune for Sept. 8, 1866:

years ago

l “The indications are the wet weather is now fairly over IN 1866 for the present. We wish to urge the farmers of Kansas, and especially of Douglas county, to sow every acre of wheat they can possibly put in. There is plenty of time to sow such a breadth of this cereal as will supply, not only our people and the great additions to our population, which we shall undoubtedly receive next year, but leave a large amount for sale to the western Territories.” l “A drove of cattle, some sixty or seventy in number, belonging to Write & Gilmore, were driven through town yesterday, on their way to Illinois.” “We received yesterday a sample of the best sorghum syrup we ever tasted. It was made by Mr. J. H. Furman, of Sigel, Douglas county. It is of a beautifully clear golden color, and free from all peculiar sorghum taste.” — Reprinted with permission from local writer Sarah St. John.

TODAY IN HISTORY l On Sept. 8, 1966, the science-fiction series “Star Trek” premiered on NBC. l In 1565, a Spanish expedition established the first permanent European settlement in North America at presentday St. Augustine, Fla. l In 1900, Galveston, Texas, was struck by a hurricane that killed an estimated 8,000 people. l In 1935, Sen. Huey P. Long, D-La., was shot and mortally wounded inside the Louisiana State Capitol; he died two days later.

Ford granted a “full, free, and absolute pardon” to former President Richard Nixon covering his entire term in office.

In a ‘change’ year, Portman deserves re-election Terrace Park, Ohio — Sen. Rob Portman probably will win a second term, despite the fact that he deserves to. The swarm of young people who gathered on a Saturday morning in this Cincinnati suburb to feast on doughnuts and his gratitude are among the 5,000 volunteer interns, including students from 35 campuses, who have made 3.5 million voter contacts. Portman’s supporters are a forgiving sort, undeterred by his many accomplishments and qualifications that could be disqualifying in this season of populist antagonism toward people who have actually governed. A graduate of Dartmouth and the University of Michigan Law School, Portman was one of President George H.W. Bush’s counselors. After six terms in Congress, Portman became President George W. Bush’s trade representative and, a year later, director of the Office of Management and Budget. It gets worse: This year’s Republican presidential nominating electorate decided that the lungs are the locus of wisdom, but Portman is as quiet as his 19th century Quaker abolitionist ancestors probably were when assisting the Underground Railroad. (In “Uncle Tom’s Cabin,” Eliza escapes over the Ohio River ice floes about 50 miles east of here.) Given today’s apotheosis of the outsider, Portman is fortunate to be running against a former congress-

George Will

georgewill@washpost.com

man and governor, Ted Strickland, a political lifer who first ran for Congress (unsuccessfully) 40 years ago. He is an ordained Methodist minister from the gun-toting coal country of southeastern Ohio. Fortunately for Portman, Strickland, after losing the governorship to John Kasich in 2010, became head of the Washington-based, impeccably liberal Center for American Progress Action Fund. What was he thinking? Probably not about running again in Ohio. Strickland has revised the Clintonian mantra about making abortions “safe, legal and rare.” He seems to prefer “safe, legal and as frequent as subsidies can make them”: He favors repeal of the Hyde Amendment which for 40 years has banned taxpayer funding of abortions. The center supports many gun control measures unacceptable to the NRA, which supported Strickland in 2010 but has endorsed Portman. The Center for American Progress shares the Obama administration’s animus against coal, so the United Mine Work-

ers (like the Teamsters and the Fraternal Order of Police) have abandoned Strickland. Tip O’Neill’s incessantly quoted axiom — “All politics is local” — is increasing false in polarized America, where many elections are nationalized. This year, however, it is in Portman’s interest to stress local issues unrelated to anything being bellowed about by the person at the top of the Republican ticket. Sixty-thousand eligible voters say that the biggest issue for them is algae threatening Lake Erie. And the biggest issue might be the epidemic of deaths from heroin and other opioids. Nationally, such deaths — about 27,000 a year — are almost half the drug overdose deaths that now take more American lives than do car crashes. Opioids are especially devastating in post-industrial communities, of which Ohio has its share. In 2012, Ohio was one of 12 states where the number of opioid prescriptions written was larger than the number of people. Ohioans who are pleased that Portman authored the Comprehensive Addiction and Recovery Act must forgive him for having done so in Washington. In Portman’s 15-minute parking-lot pitter-patter to his supporters here, he did not mention the choleric man at the top of the ticket. Portman’s strategic reticence does not extend to

the matter of trade: He has made the obligatory vow to oppose the Trans-Pacific Partnership. Strickland’s one-track-mind campaign focuses on international trade as the root of most of Ohio’s evils. Never mind that Honda is Ohio’s biggest auto employer and that Portman says one-third of the state’s farm acres are growing crops for export. Six presidents were elected from this state (William Henry Harrison, Rutherford Hayes, James Garfield, William McKinley, William Taft, Warren Harding), a seventh (U.S. Grant) was born here, and there could have been an eighth — Robert Taft (1889-1953). A president’s son, he was “Mr. Republican” during his 14 years representing Ohio in the Senate seat that Portman now occupies. Then as now, Ohio had many bluecollar industrial workers, and Taft’s critics said he could not represent them. So, in 1947 a reporter asked Taft’s wife, “Do you think of your husband as a common man?” Aghast, she replied: “Oh, no, no! The senator is very uncommon. He was first in his class at Yale and first in his class at the Harvard Law School. We wouldn’t permit Ohio to be represented in the Senate by just a common man.” In 1950, Taft was easily reelected. Portman probably will be, too, even though he should be. — George Will is a columnist for Washington Post Writers Group.

WIN A 2016 FORD F-150 MVP EDITION Peter Hancock/Journal-World Photo

THE UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS HOSPITAL IS UNDERGOING A MAJOR EXPANSION at its main campus in Kansas City, Kan., pictured, but it is also growing externally through a new partnership with Hays Medical Center in western Kansas.

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A

“We have an opportunity to see if we can combine the best and the brightest minds, and we can standardize care,” he continued. “We can become more efficient and effective in our care and we’ll provide better care to patients.” The major changes coming in the future, Page said, mainly concern how hospitals get paid. Driven mainly by Medicare, the federal health insurance program for the elderly, the new payment model will be based on outcomes rather than services provided. “Health care organizations are being asked to do more with less,” he said. “We will be asked to provide even higher quality care, and we get paid less in the future than we get paid today. And so that’s going to require very creative thinking.” It may also mean that stand-alone nonprofit hospitals like Hays Medical Center will need to link up with larger organizations like KU Hospital so they’ll be able to offer the full range of new procedures and technologies being demanded. Page said KU’s partnership with Hays Medical Center may become a template for similar arrangements with other smaller hospitals.

BRIEFLY Robbery suspect: Prison better than living with wife Kansas City, Kan. (ap) — A 70-year-old man accused of robbing a bank in Kansas told investigators he would rather be imprisoned than live with his wife. Court documents say Lawrence John Ripple gave a note to a bank teller in Kansas City on Friday, demanding cash and warning he had a gun. Ripple took the money and went to sit in the lobby where he told a guard he was the “guy he was looking for.” Officers arrived quickly. An FBI agent wrote in the affidavit that Ripple had earlier been arguing with his wife. He told investigators he wrote the note in front of his wife, telling her he would “rather be in jail than at home.” Ripple was charged with bank robbery Tuesday. Online court records don’t list an attorney for Ripple.

“

— Bob Page, president and CEO of KU Hospital

“Long term, our hope is you’ll see other organizations want to join in this process,” he said. “And I think tangibly, if we got the right partners around the table, we could absolutely move the dial on clinical outcomes for patients in Kansas.” KU Hospital is a 756bed facility, with another 100 beds under construction, located in Wyandotte County, just a few blocks west of the Missouri state line. It is co-located with KU Medical Center, the university’s school of medicine, and faculty of the medical school are also on staff of the hospital. But the hospital itself is a separate organization that is governed by the quasi-public KU Hospital Authority. Hays Medical Center is a 207-bed private, nonprofit hospital that serves a community of about 21,000 people in western Kansas. It’s also the supporting hospital for 24 smaller Critical Access Hospitals — those with 25 or fewer beds — that are part of the Northwest Kansas Health Alliance. In addition, it operates and partners with Paw-

nee Valley Community Hospital in Larned and co-owns St. Rose Health Center with Centura Health in Great Bend. Details of how the new partnership will work are still being ironed out, Page said. The letter of intent signed this week stipulates that both organizations will maintain their own boards and their own management teams, but they will produce a consolidated financial report, and a new operations council, made up of members from both organizations, will direct the partnership. — Statehouse reporter Peter Hancock can be reached at 354-4222.

It was a symbol of first-responders’ heroic actions and a nation’s unconquerable spirit after the 9/11 terrorist attacks: the image of three firefighters hoisting an American flag above the rubble of Ground Zero, captured by a Record photographer. Since that photo was taken, the flag’s fate was a mystery — until Tuesday. The 9/11 Memorial & Museum in New York City announced that the flag had been turned over to authorities in Wash-

ington state — by a man whose identity remains unknown — and would be unveiled at the museum Thursday. “I’m glad that the flag is going to be at the 9/11 museum; that’s where it belongs,” said Thomas E. Franklin, who took the iconic photograph. A man who said he was named Brian dropped off the flag and an attached halyard at a fire station in Everett, Wash., in November 2014. Police contacted The Record and received high-resolution images of Franklin’s photo that helped identify unique characteristics of the halyard.

SAN FRANCISCO Apple didn’t produce a groundbreaking product Wednesday, as expected. But the world’s most-valuable company is building the groundwork for its next big chapter.

Mexico’s treasurer resigns after Trump visits president Leader assailed for welcoming candidate David Agren and Jessica Durando USA TODAY

MEXICO CITY Mexican Treasury Minister Luis Videgaray resigned Wednesday, a week after Donald Trump’s controversial meeting with President Enrique Peña Nieto, which Videgaray reportedly had suggested. Videgaray, one of Peña Nieto’s closest advisers, did not state a reason for stepping down, Finance

Ministry spokeswoman Claudia Algorri said. Mexican media reported that it was his idea to promote a meeting with Trump to calm financial markets nervous over the Republican presidential candidate’s anti-Mexico and antiimmigrant rhetoric. Trump has vowed to build a wall along the border and make Mexico pay for it and to rip up the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) because too many U.S. factories and jobs move south of the border. Peña Nieto was savaged in the media for failing to stand up to Trump when they appeared together. The visit Aug. 31 sparked

unkind headlines: “Trump uses EPN,” the Mexico City daily Reforma said, using the president’s initials.

Domestic workers stalwarts of ambition Arnesa A. Howell

Special for USA TODAY

It’s early morning, and the ladies hover around the bus stop gossiping about the day ahead. At 10 years old, I stick close to my aunt Geevie as we wait for the next city bus headed toward Windsor Farms, a part of Richmond, Va., where men don’t mow their own lawns. Geevie and I each hold twine-handled bags filled with goodies to hold us through the day: Baby Ruth candy bars fresh out the freezer, potato chips and two bottles of Coca-Cola. On this day, Geevie wears a billowy, floral blouse and polyester pants. “That’s so old-fashioned. People don’t wear polyester pants anymore.” I tease. Her clothes make me pay more attention to what some of the other women are wearing. “Geevie, why do they have on white nurses’ uniforms? They aren’t nurses.” “Sometimes you have to wear a uniform.” “I would never wear a uniform to clean a white lady’s house.” “There’s nothing wrong with wearing a uniform,” my aunt responds. “I wear one if they ask me to or if I’m serving at a dinner party. What’s wrong with that?” Her forehead creases as she

stares at me with wide brown eyes, perplexed by my declaration. I glance at the women again in their cookie-cutter dresses and feel a slight pang in my chest. ••• Those uniforms represented what I didn’t want in life. It’s one thing to do what we called “day’s work,” but donning the white dress with the buttoned-up front and starched collar translated into subservience, being treated lesser-than. Geevie greeted her employers with “Ms.” and “Mr.” — even when cleaning house for one woman nearly 20 years her junior. They, however, called her by her actual first name, Shirley. That was 1984. Decades later, domestic workers are still not getting their due respect. While political shoutouts for pay equity and the calls for women to supportively “lean i n together” are important and positive, they largely focus on (and resonate with) professionals. But they do little to acknowledge the efforts of “non-professional” women of color. Their sacrifices, obstacles and triumphs are equally significant and valuable. Black women have long strengthened their families through domestic work. These women are positive images of service who’ve paved the way for me — and others — to advance. Good pay in Richmond during the ’80s was $100 to $130 a week. Yet, in 2015, the 741,000 women working nationwide in private households typically

earned $313 weekly, the Bureau of Labor Statistics found. Their hard work holds dignity and is just as worthy of respect by all, regardless of race, class or economic standing. The women in my family were my first allies and champions. ••• My aunt woke before daybreak to travel the 30-plus miles to clean the homes of well-to-do white families. She washed their clothes, changed their bed linens, vacuumed their floors, scrubbed their bathrooms and

meticulously wiped the tarnish from their silver. It was respectable work that allowed her to build a brick home for her family and treat herself to gold jewelry and a full-length black mink coat. But at their homes, she couldn’t eat their food or drink their sodas unless they offered. Still, she did better than my maternal grandmother, who supported her children by working the tobacco fields of their small family farm with my grandfather. To her, being a secretary was the best job a black woman could achieve. Geevie would wear the uniform without question. My mom refused. “I’m not wearing anyone’s uniform,” I remember Mama telling me, with characteristic sass. “They can keep their job.” Mama did day’s work much of her life, too, but she dressed regularly to do the kind of housework that with age draws at your back muscles. If her employers had kids, she’d help take care of them. I loved traipsing along to dust the baseboards, breaking to play with the daughter my age. But there were noticeable differences: Mama was welcome to have whatever food and snacks were in the icebox or pantry, and she called the lady of the house “Betsy” or “Linda.” Once, Mama interviewed with an elderly lady whose living room was filled with delicate porcelain trinkets and sterlingsilver serving pieces. She referenced the “girls” who had

worked for her before as she pointed out how she expected her treasures to be cleaned just so. She gingerly ran her fingers across the Venetian blinds, and directed Mama how they should be cleaned every week. My mom never went back. Back then, Mama was a lot more strong-willed than my aunt, and for that, I’m grateful. Each generation of women in my family taught me to strive for something bigger than what they could dream for themselves. Because I witnessed my grandmother pick tobacco in 100-degree heat, I knew I could do more. Because my aunt wore a maid’s uniform, I knew I wouldn’t have to. Because my mom did day’s work to help put me through school, I worked even harder to become the first in my family to attend college, graduating from Howard University. With my journalism degree came a new title: professional. It was one that I worked four years to earn, and that Mama, Geevie and Granny all celebrated. My accomplishment makes it that much easier to appreciate the black women in my life. There is integrity in domestic work, and no level of achievement will make me lose sight of that. And when you see a woman in uniform, acknowledge her. Greet her. Smile. Say “thank you” — it’s the respect she deserves. Howell is a Washington, D.C.-based writer, editor and consultant.

More than 140 billion apps have been downloaded from the App Store, whose “phenomenal” growth is up 106% in July and August from a year ago, Apple CEO Tim Cook said. “By itself (services) could top a Fortune 200 company,” says Tim Bajarin, principal analyst at market researcher Creative Strategies.

snapping up start-ups in the AI and machine learning fields. Apple is a technology giant in transition. Sales of its cash cow, iPhone, have declined two straight quarters in a cooling smartphone market, while it cultivates its thriving services division — ranging from Apple Music subscriptions, App Store purchases and iCloud storage. Apple needs to shift its emphasis to software because it provides the kind of consistent, year-toyear revenue not always guaranteed by iPhone, especially as more consumers hold onto their smartphones longer before upgrading, says Bill Kreher, an analyst at market researcher Edward Jones. Like many analysts, Angelo Zino, of S&P Global Market Intelligence, calls iPhone 7 “more evolutionary than revolutionary” and expects “relatively flat volume” compared with the iPhone 6S/6S Plus cycle. He anticipates declines in iPhone shipments in the September (45 million, down 6%) and December (70 million to 72 million, down 5%) quarters, according to Zino. Zino, echoing his analyst brethren, predicts a spike in sales when iPhone 8, the 10th-anniversary edition of the behemoth smartphone franchise, debuts as expected next year.

sense” approach to the demands of being commander in chief. During a national security speech earlier in the day, Trump attacked Clinton for her support of military action in Iraq and Libya, saying, “She’s trigger-happy and very unstable.” At the forum, Clinton called her vote in favor of the Iraq War a mistake, but she noted that Trump also initially supported the invasion in 2003 and has shifted his position in the years since. “I have taken responsibility for my decision,” Clinton said. “He refuses to take responsibility for his support. ... That is a judgment issue.” Trump told the forum he was “totally against the war in Iraq” because it destabilized the Middle East. “I have good judgment,” he said. NBC News moderator Matt Lauer asked the candidates to discuss their own ideas and refrain from attacking their opponent, a request not always honored. The candidates took questions from veterans invited

to participate in the forum. Trump said praise from Russian President Vladimir Putin would not affect his policy toward Russia. He said Putin has “been a leader far more than our president has been a leader.” In his speech earlier Wednesday, Trump proclaimed a goal of “Peace Through Strength.” He told an invited crowd at Philadelphia’s Union League club that he wants a foreign policy “focused on advancing America’s core national interests — so important — promoting regional stability and ... easing the tensions within our very troubled world.” Clinton unveiled a list of endorsements from 95 retired generals and admirals — most of whom had previously announced their support — who cited her years as secretary of State and as a U.S. senator in contrast to the New York businessman who lacks experience in government and has attacked global allies as well as adversaries.

Clinton communication director Jennifer Palmieri said Trump is reduced to “taunts and insults” because he cannot defend his own record. “You could dismiss these actions as insecure schoolyard behavior, but this man is running to be president of the United States,” she said. Trump cited his own endorsements from 88 generals and admirals Tuesday. Wednesday, he

called for increased defense spending and an end to the automatic series of congressional budget cuts known as sequestration. He said that would permit the financing of more submarines, ships and troops. The GOP candidate did not supply an overall cost estimate for his plans, though he said “budget reforms” and the collection of unpaid taxes would help finance them. The Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget reported that Trump’s plans would cost $150 billion, even if his cost offsets materialized. The Clinton campaign released an ad this week showing Trump making remarks viewed by some as disparaging toward the military, including an attack on Arizona Sen. John McCain, a former Vietnam prisoner of war. Rucker Culpepper, who runs Clinton’s get-out-the-vote effort for military veterans’ families, said, “Trump has been disrespecting our veterans and military for decades, proving he’s unqualified and temperamentally unfit to be commander in chief.”

A NEW ROUND IN WIS. TEEN’S FIGHT TO DIE Groups try to step in, but Jerika isn’t just giving up, ethicist says Greg Toppo @gtoppo USA TODAY

Child-protection authorities were first asked to investigate a Wisconsin teenager’s decision to die more than a month ago, according to referrals obtained by USA TODAY Network. The disability rights groups that filed the referrals hoping to halt 14-year-old Jerika Bolen’s plans to enter hospice care and cease treatment of her incurable disease say they still have not received word from state or county officials on whether any action is being pursued. “We hope they’re doing what they’re supposed to be doing,” said Mitchell Hagopian, attorney for Disability Rights Wisconsin. “They’re the emergency responders. We’re not.” The two child-protection referrals obtained by USA TODAY Network on Wednesday cite child neglect on the part of Jerika’s mother, Jen Bolen, as their basis for seeking an investigation. They refer to Jerika’s desire to undergo hospice care as a suicide plan. Jerika’s treatment status is unknown. Her mother declined any further comment regarding her daughter’s current or forthcoming medical care. More than a decade ago, Americans took sides in a bitter, faithtinged battle over the right to die. We watched as Terry Schiavo’s family fought over what they believed were the Florida woman’s wishes. As the world watches what could be the final days of Jerika, a

different drama is unfolding: The kid just threw herself a goodbye party — and many, many people are cheering. Have we turned a corner on this fraught issue over the past 11 years? Medical ethicists say not so fast. As painful as Jerika’s case is, hers is not like Terry Schiavo’s, whose medical drama dragged on for years, ensnaring lawmakers right up to President George W. Bush, said Arthur Caplan, head of bioethics at New York University’s Langone Medical Center. The case of Schiavo, a Florida woman whose heart stopped in 1990, and who lay in a “persistent vegetative” state until her death in 2005, divided the USA and hardened many Americans’ positions on the “right to death,” as well as religious objections to physician-assisted suicide. At the time she was hospitalized, Schiavo, 26, left no written instructions in the event she became disabled. Her husband, Michael, said she never would have wanted to be kept alive in that state, which court-appointed doctors said held no hope of recovery. But Schiavo’s parents maintained she would benefit from rehabilitation. A long fight followed — President Bush even signed a bill allowing a federal court to intervene in the case. Schiavo died at age 41 at a Florida hospice after a federal judge refused to order the re-insertion of a feeding tube that had been removed under court order. That case, Caplan said, was an outlier, “partly because the family

was so deeply divided, partly because the issue became so political.” Schiavo was unable to make her own medical decisions, or even to speak. “Part of the dispute was, ‘Who gets to make decisions for her?’ ” The case also involved religious considerations — her family was Catholic, and part of the dilemma involved caregivers trying to figure out if she still considered herself a Catholic and thus would oppose ending her own life. Paul J. Ford, director of the NeuroEthics Program at Cleveland Clinic, said Jerika’s case seems closer to those of cancer patients who reject treatments such as chemotherapy. Ford also compared Jerika’s case to that of Brittany Maynard, 29, who was diagnosed with a malignant brain tumor and relocated to Oregon so she could legally kill herself with lethal medication in 2014. She wrote at the time that death by stage 4 glioblastoma would be “a terrible, terrible way to die.” Ford said Maynard “wasn’t going toward death, she was living life fully until she couldn’t. Everything suggests that this young lady (Jerika) is doing that.”

He said Jerika has earned a real measure of respect for her suffering, which has included nearly 40 surgeries. “She has worked so hard and has been cared for so well and is pretty articulate. This isn’t somebody who just got a diagnosis and gave up.” Carrie Ann Lucas of the Colorado-based Disabled Parents Rights said her organization is one of several that has asked for child-protection authorities to investigate. Jerika’s decision to enter hospice care in September gained national attention after she and her mother said the girl would forgo a ventilator at that time. Jerika suffers from Spinal Muscular Atrophy Type 2, often referred to as SMA. It’s an incurable disease that has left her in constant pain — on her best days, she says, she’s at seven on a 10point scale. . At 14, her movement is mostly limited to her head and hands. Her story drew an outpouring of support when her family, friends and her care team held a prom, dubbed “Jerika’s Last Dance,” in July. Contributing: Jim Collar, The (Appleton, Wis.) Post-Crescent

Lawmaker wants Moscow to stay out of U.S. election

IN BRIEF A RETURN TO EARTH

Susan Page @susanpage USA TODAY

Rep. Adam Schiff, the top Democrat on the House Intelligence Committee, is calling on President Obama to retaliate against Russia for interference in the presidential election — meddling the California congressman says is designed both to “sow discord” in American politics and to help elect Donald Trump. “What makes this new and troubling is not just the intelligence-gathering of hacking into a political party,” Schiff told Capital Download on Wednesday, “but the attempt to interfere with the election process by dumping information in an effort, I think, to be disruptive, to sow discord in the United States, to cause people to question both the fairness of elections and maybe even the election results, as well as to potentially tip things in the direction of a favored candidate by the Kremlin.” Schiff, 56, who has served on the Intelligence Committee for a decade, told USA TODAY’s weekly video newsmaker series it is clear from publicly disclosed information that computer hacking of the Democratic National Committee, the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee, and state election offices in Arizona and Illinois can be traced to the Russian government itself or hackers sanctioned by it. But the president this week declined to threaten Moscow, or even directly declare it responsible. “We’ve had problems with cyber intrusions from Russia in the past, from other countries in the past,” Obama said after meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin. But he didn’t suggest retaliation. “Our goal is not to suddenly in the cyber arena duplicate a cycle of escalation that we saw when it comes to other arms races ... but rather to start instituting some norms so that everybody’s acting responsibly.” Schiff called on the administration to “really call out Russia on WASHINGTON

When the fire was extinguished, the body of Seals, 29, was found inside. Seals had suffered a gunshot wound, Granda said.

That could include indicting the hackers and imposing sanctions against Russian inor individuals, stitutions restricting their access to assets and ability to travel abroad. “We know at least two states have been the subject of hacking already, so the question is not whether they have the ability, only whether they have the will to do it,” he said of the prospect of tampering with election returns. “Right now, because they paid so little price for the hack of the DNC and the DCCC, there’s little to deter them.” Florida Rep.

The administration may be reluctant to act while Secretary of State John Kerry is negotiating with Russia over Syria, Schiff says. “The other factor the administration may be considering is ... would it give the appearance that they were trying to tip the scales for Hillary Clinton?

At the Apple event Wednesday, CEO Tim Cook introduces a game called Super Mario Run, which will be available on the iPhone.

“Of course, the world’s most advanced mobile operating system deserves the most advanced smartphone, and here it is.” Tim Cook, Apple CEO

appears to be doubling down on a group of products that have helped cement its name and filled its coffers. More than a billion iPhones have sold around the world, and Apple Watch has, over the past 18 months, become second only to Rolex in sales revenues. Apple’s market cap is $580 billion, and the company is sitting on more than $200 billion in cash, much of it generated by iPhone.

Move over, Apple. The breakthrough winner from the iPhone maker’s big reveal Wednesday was video game maker Nintendo. Shares of Nintendo’s U.S. listed shares jumped 29% to $36.32 apiece Wednesday after the gaming pioneer said during the Apple conference it would bring several titles to Apple’s various mobile platforms. Nintendo plans to release a version of its co-owned Pokémon Go augmented-reality game to the Apple Watch and an “endless runner”-style game using Mario Bros. characters to the iPhone called Super Mario Run.

The iPhone 7 has a new optical stabilizer, a larger aperture lens and a new high-speed sensor that’s 60% more efficient, Schiller said. The flash produces 50% more light.

Nintendo shares started skyrocketing almost the moment following the July 6 release of the game, which was an immediate gaming hit, being downloaded more than 100 million times. The game was developed by Niantic, which is partially owned by Nintendo and Google parent company Alphabet. The massive rise in Nintendo’s shares stands out especially given Apple’s own stock is stagnant, even after its announcement. Shares of Apple are up roughly 2% this year while the Standard & Poor’s 500 has risen nearly 9%.

Shipper’s bankruptcy could affect U.S. holiday sales Samsung among firms in limbo after Hanjin has its assets frozen Mike Snider @mikesnider USA TODAY

The woes of a South Korean shipper could affect what makes it under Christmas trees this holiday. Troubled South Korean firm Hanjin Shipping, the world’s seventh-largest shipper, has been granted temporary bankruptcy protection in the U.S. The company filed for bankruptcy protection in South Korea last week and is seeking similar status in dozens of countries globally to prevent seizures of ships and cargo. With its assets frozen, Hanjin, which handles about 8% of all

U.S. cargo, is faced with its ships not being allowed to unload or take on cargo as dock workers and tugboat pilots are concerned about not being paid. The crisis is creating a ripple effect that could impact retailers’ shelves come the crucial holiday shopping season. Tech giant Samsung is among the companies affected with about $24.5 million in visual display products and parts and $13.5 million in refrigerators and other appliances on two ships near Long Beach. Delays, replacement shipments and other costs will hurt not only Samsung, but also U.S. retailers and consumers, Jun Tae Ahn, chief financial officer for Samsung Electronics’ visual display business division, said in a filing in bankruptcy court. “The upcoming months are critically important to retailers,

South Korea’s Hanjin Montevideo, top, sits anchored outside the Port of Long Beach on Sept. 1. particularly ahead of Black Friday and the holiday shopping season,” the filing said. Members of Congress and U.S. retailers have sought support for Hanjin to temper the repercus-

ting these ships unloaded,” several U.S. House members of the Congressional Ports Caucus urged Secretary of Commerce Penny Pritzker on Tuesday in a letter of their own. Many of the caucus members represent the Long Beach and Los Angeles ports affected by the Hanjin situation. “U.S.-bound cargo is already being delayed at origin ports and Hanjin ships loaded with cargo idle unable to enter U.S. ports, containers are being detained on arrival clogging already congested ports and preventing merchandise from reaching store shelves,” Retail Industry Leaders Association President Sandra Kennedy said in the letter last week to Pritzker and Federal Maritime Commission Chairman Mario Cordero.

Dear Annie: My first husband was a workaholic with little time for me or any enjoyment, so when I divorced and met my current husband, I was thrilled to find such an optimistic, fun-loving man. He is affectionate, extremely clever and a real people person. However, as years go by, he seems to have less and less ambition and isn’t doing his fair share to keep us out of debt. When we first met, he was working two jobs to cover his expenses and pay child support. He now works one job and thinks nothing of knocking off early to go home and watch sports and goof off on the computer. A large percentage of my personal pay-

check is spent covering his insurance, his past-due taxes, his kid’s college loan payments, etc. There’s little money left for me to get a haircut or have lunch with friends once in a while. I’m now facing some health challenges, and he hasn’t stepped up to help me. I’m constantly juggling overdraft notices and selling things to keep us out of hock.

‘Better Things’ lacks filter A non-sitcom comedy about the burdens of single parenthood, “Better Things” (9 p.m., FX, TV-MA) could have been called “TMI.” Pamela Adlon (“Louie”) stars as Sam Fox, a working actress and voice-over talent raising three daughters while keeping track of her mother and striving to eke out some satisfaction for herself. Daughter Max (Mikey Madison) is the impossible teen, dreamy, needy and “honest” to a fault. When she asks her mother to buy her pot or insists on talking about sex, Sam retreats and says that she’d rather that Max “hide that stuff” from her like a normal teen. Middle daughter Frankie (Hannah Alligood) is impossibly socially conscious and even more insufferable in her own way. Duke (Olivia Edward) retains a whiff of childhood innocence and allows Sam her few moments of intimacy and affection. Like “Louie,” this series (also produced by Louis C.K.) never shields us from its central character’s every thought, from Sam’s fantasizing about an earlier tryst to her near-clinical interest in internet pornography. The show bounces rather naturally from domestic explosions to the demands of Sam’s working life. At its best, this shows off Adlon’s great comic timing. But it also invests the show with a lot of insiderdom. Should we feel less sympathy for an actress who rubs shoulders with Hollywood stars? We should. But will we? Sam’s seen auditioning for a part and kidding around with a rival actress (Constance Zimmer, “Unreal”) until both women see that Julie Bowen (“Modern Family”) has clearly locked up the role. In another scene, she’s acting on a set with Bradley Whitford (“The West Wing”) in a rather steamy scene and trying to talk the writers into toning it down for her kids’ sake. Later, we see her venting about her problems while trying to synch her voice to a kids’ cartoon. This may remind some of one of Adlon’s great roles. She was the voice of Bobby Hill on the primetime cartoon “King of the Hill.” Part of me wishes that Sam and “Better Things” shared a little of Hank Hill’s repression and learned to “hide that stuff” from time to time. O Members of the original “classic” cast (William Shatner, Leonard Nimoy, DeForest Kelley and James Doohan) star in the 1986 sequel “Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home” (7:30 p.m., Syfy), part of a daylong marathon of “Star Trek” movies. BBC America continues its ongoing marathon of episodes of “Star Trek.” The series debuted on NBC on Sept. 8, 1966, 50 years ago today.

My resentment is starting to destroy any affection I had. I just want to be treated fairly. Seeing as that’s not happening, I’m ready to separate. I am self-sufficient and would be better off financially on my own; however, I’m hoping a separation might make him wake up and start doing his fair share. Am I fooling myself thinking a separation might help him grow up? Do I need to accept that I married Peter Pan? — Overworked Wendy Dear Wendy: Don’t send Peter Pan packing to Neverland just yet. He’s fallen into a lazy slump because it’s been easy for him to do so, and now he needs a push to get moving again. Be-

JACQUELINE BIGAR’S STARS

For Thursday, Sept. 8: This year you experience an innate tension that could come to the forefront. If you are single, you’ll note some confusion surrounding potential suitors. If you are attached, you could find yourself in several squabbles. Your significant other might not understand this new dimension of your personality. The stars show the kind of day you’ll have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult Aries (March 21-April 19) ++++ Make a point of detaching. As a result, your view on a situation could change dramatically. Tonight: Make it special. Taurus (April 20-May 20) +++ You might want to relate to a key individual on a one-on-one basis. You easily could meet some resistance. Tonight: A friend could confuse plans at the last minute. Gemini (May 21-June 20) ++++ You could be confused by what someone you respect tells you. Be careful; don’t misread this person’s intentions. Tonight: Think “weekend.” Cancer (June 21-July 22) +++ You have been in a daydreaming type of mood lately, perhaps replaying recent discussions between you and someone else. Tonight: Relax at home. Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) ++++ You might need to have a conversation with someone who doesn’t seem to think your brainchild is all that good. Tonight: Time to be a little naughty.

ing honest and open is your best shot at a happily-ever-after ending. Tell him that if this marriage is to continue, it needs to start functioning like a true partnership. Perhaps he should pick up a second job again, if that’s what it takes to cover his expenses. I would also talk to a financial adviser, as it might be wise to keep your finances separate until he demonstrates that he’s ready to grow up. And if that never happens? He can fly away to another couch.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) +++ You are coming from a secure point of view. Someone close to you might challenge your approach on a domestic or real estate issue. Tonight: At home. Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) ++++ Clear your mind, take a walk and/or opt for a power nap. Be direct about someone’s request. Say “no” if need be. Tonight: At a favorite spot. Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) ++++ Your strong personality has the potential to run over someone else. Do not feel intimidated by a loved one’s attitude. Tonight: Pay your bills. Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) ++++ You’ll be able to pull out of an overly serious attitude more quickly than usual. Tonight: Be happy. Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) +++ Know when to back off. You might discover that you have an enemy you were not aware of. Understand that this person is two-faced. Tonight: Get some extra R and R. Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) +++++ A friend could be overly serious and perhaps even upset. Don’t blab the news to everyone. Tonight: Follow your gut. Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) +++ Staying on top of work might be difficult, as you could start daydreaming. Tonight: Go for some extra sleep. — The astrological forecast should be read for entertainment only.

HIGH SCHOOL GYMNASTICS Tom Keegan tkeegan@ljworld.com

Fourth quarter thrills on deck Styles make fights on the football field, too, not just the boxing ring. Contrasting styles tend to make the most exciting fights, regardless of the venue. That and many other factors make Saturday’s 1:30 p.m. kickoff pitting visiting Ohio vs. Kansas as intriguing, difficult-to-forecast a football game as has been played at Memorial Stadium in a few years. The programs themselves have so little in common. Ohio has had the most stable coaching staff in the country since former Nebraska coach Frank Solich was hired in 2005. Solich has had one offensive coordinator, Tim Albin, and one defensive coordinator, Jimmy Burrow, in his 12 seasons in Athens, Ohio. During that time, Kansas has had four head coaches (Mark Mangino, Turner Gill, Charlie Weis, David Beaty) and one interim head coach (Clint Bowen). Eight different men have served as KU’s offensive coordinator during Albin’s tenure working under Solich: Nick Quartaro, Ed Warinner, Chuck Long, Weis, John Reagan, Eric Kiesau, Rob Likens and Beaty. Five different men have coordinated the Jayhawks’ defense since Burrow started with Solich in Ohio: Bill Young, Bowen (for three different bosses), Carl Torbush, Vic Shealy and Dave Campo. Solich is in his 18th season as a head college football coach, Beaty his second. When recruiting, Kansas banks on young athletes’ desire to play in the most competitive conference that will have them. Ohio of the Mid-American Conference offers a winning tradition. Beaty runs a fast-paced, Air Raid Offense that tends to feature more passes than rushes. Even in Saturday’s blowout, 55-6 victory against Rhode Island, the Jayhawks attempted more passes (38) than rushes (35). Solich opened up his offense in 2012, but still favors the run (547 rushes, 403 passes in 2015). Using its speed at wide receiver to exploit a young secondary gives KU its best shot at victory. Ohio’s best path to victory lies in using its experience and physical maturity advantages in the trenches on both sides of the ball. Being on the wrong end of a triple-overtime upset at the hands of Texas State last week makes Ohio a dangerous opponent, eager to make amends. Ending a 15-game losing streak in one-sided fashion gave the Jayhawks a sorely needed confidence boost. Kansas seeks its first twogame winning streak since opening the 2011 season with victories vs. McNeese State and Northern Illinois. It won’t be easy. It will come as a surprise if it’s not packed with fourth-quarter suspense.

LHS gymnasts edge FSHS in first meet of season By Bobby Nightengale bnightengale@ljworld.com

When the final scorecard was placed on the wall at Free State High, Lawrence High gymnasts smiled and pointed at the score. For the second straight season, the Lions opened the season with a victory in their first meet. Only this time, it was by

the slimmest of margins. The Lions edged runner-up Free State, 96.4 points to 96.2, at the FSHS quadrangular Wednesday. “I mean, it’s really exciting to start off this way,” LHS sophomore Eden Kingery said. “I’m super pumped.” Lawrence’s gymnasts admitted that the start of the meet was “rough,” but they became more comfortable

after their first event. Kingery led the Lions by placing second in the uneven bars (8.1), third in the floor exercise (8.5) and fourth all around (32.65). She said she was surprised by her score on the bars, especially for this early in the season. LHS sophomore Josie Hickerson followed with a second-place finish on the

balance beam (8.5) and taking fourth on the bars (7.6). She took fifth all around with 32.15 points. Hickerson didn’t participate on the team last season, instead focusing on club gymnastics until she stopped in February. “I’m really happy by my beam,” Hickerson said. “I

Life after Ayton: A look at 2017 big men still available By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

The Kansas men’s basketball team missed out on one of its top targets on Tuesday, when 7-foot center DeAndre Ayton, the nation’s top-ranked recruit in the Class of 2017, opted for Arizona over Kansas and Kentucky. Ayton’s decision, though not crippling, certainly served as a blow to KU’s recruitment of a big man for the future. Freshman big man Udoka Azubuike should be around for at least the 2016-17 and 2017-18 seasons. So, too, will Ole Miss transfer Dwight Coleby (6-9, 240) and Liberty transfer Evan Maxwell (6-10, 235). That trio gives KU coach Bill Self and his staff time to transition into Plan B in the pursuit of KU’s next standout big man, a plan that could involve a number of still-undecided prospects in the 2017 class or skip ahead to the 2018 crew, which features forward Bol Bol, a 6-11, 180-pound five-star prospect

from nearby Bishop Miege High ranked 14th overall by Rivals.com in the 2018 class. That’s in the future. For now, let’s take a quick look at a few of the bigs still attainable in the 2017 class. There are, of course, a number of other forwards and centers across the country that could suddenly vault up KU’s wish list, but the following list includes a few of the most likely targets for the Jayhawks.

QB rotation a non-issue for KU wide receivers By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

He stood out when the game was already in hand, but that did not keep the Kansas football coaches from singling out red-shirt freshman Chase Harrell following last weekend’s 55-6 victory over Rhode Island in the season opener. Harrell, the 6-foot-4, 213-pound wide receiver from Huffman, Texas, recorded two catches for 51 yards, including a 38-yard touchdown from Carter Stanley, in the win over the Rams, but made a much greater statement by using his physicality as a blocker. On Tuesday, KU receivers coach Jason Phillips, in a series of Tweets about members of his position group, praised Harrell with the following: “Proud of this guy! He was exactly who we need him to be Saturday!” So much so that second-year head coach David Beaty even sent a few video clips of Harrell blocking to Mike Evans, the former Texas A&M standout and current NFL monster to whom Beaty has compared Harrell since the day he signed with Kansas. “Chase had a couple of knockdowns that were pretty impressive,” Beaty recalled. “I even sent them to Mike Evans because he reminds me of Mike Evans. And Mike was like, ‘Yeah, that’s how we do it. That’s how we do it.’ Chase is a big, strong guy, and he had

a couple of impressive blocks that really stood out to me.” The job of the KU receivers, of course, is to catch the ball when it’s thrown to them. But Phillips, a former receiver himself who played both with the Atlanta Falcons and former Heisman Trophy winner Andre Ware at Houston, has emphasized to his group that it’s much more important that they be complete products, able to catch, score, block and lead. “A lot of times, we get focused, at that position, on just catches and touchdowns,” Phillips said. “But that’s just common work. That’s what you’re supposed to do. We’re gonna focus on that a lot more and it’s gonna be a standard that we hold throughout the rest of the season.” It’s that mission of doing their job and letting the rest take care of itself that allows the KU wideouts to care less about which quarterback is in the game, a mindset that came in handy a week ago, when Beaty rotated Montell Cozart and Ryan Willis at QB throughout the game before letting Stanley bring it home. Sophomore receiver Bobby Hartzog said going through so many different reps with so many different quarterbacks during preseason camp created a reality in which the Kansas receivers have confidence in whichever player is throwing them the ball and sometimes do not even actually know

who it is when they catch it. “Oh, yes sir. It doesn’t matter,” Hartzog said. “We just do our job and that’s our main focus. Our focus is not really on who the quarterback is. We have to do our job and do everything right, no matter who’s back there.” To emphasize that point, Phillips said he often has shared a story of playing with Ware, who threw for 4,699 yards and 46 touchdowns during his Heisman season of 1989. “He didn’t win the Heisman by throwing to himself,” Phillips joked. “It didn’t really matter who the quarterback was from that perspective, and I don’t want these guys to be concerned about who’s back there. Any guy that’s back there, it’s your job to make him look good.” So far, so good in that department. After struggling in the passing game during the past few seasons, the Jayhawks enjoyed a night in which 10 different players combined for 28 completions, 399 yards and six touchdowns through the air. As long as that keeps up, Phillips will be happy and the identity of KU’s quarterback will remain a footnote. “Whoever that guy is, we’re gonna support him 100 percent,” Phillips said. “His job is to throw balls and our job is to catch Mike Yoder/Journal-World File Photo ’em. I haven’t noticed any difference in the way (our KANSAS RECEIVER CHASE HARRELL, RIGHT, tries to hold onto a pass as freshman defensive receivers) perform based back Kyle Mayberry pulls down on his arm during KU’s Fan Appreciation Day practice on Saturday, August 20, at Memorial Stadium. on who’s back there.”

TWINS 6, ROYALS 5

KC fails to sweep Twins, moves up in wild-card race Gymnasts BOX SCORE

By Dave Campbell AP Sports Writer

Minneapolis — The Kansas City Royals fumbled a chance to creep forward in the AL wildcard race after a late lapse by the bullpen. Kendrys Morales sure did his part, though. Miguel Sano’s hustle led Minnesota to a pair of early runs and his RBI double tied the game in the decisive seventh inning, helping the Twins dodge a series sweep by beating the Kansas City Royals 6-5 on Wednesday night. The defending champion Royals stayed four games behind Baltimore, which holds the second wild card. Two of the three teams between them also lost. “We had a chance to pick up ground,” manager Ned Yost said, “so that definitely hurts.” Morales had three hits, including his sixth home run in the last eight games, Drew Butera also went deep for the Royals and Danny Duffy struck out 10 batters without a walk over six innings. But after the Twins’ Brian Dozier singled and stole second base to put himself in position to score against Joakim Soria (4-8), Sano doubled off the wall in right field. “I don’t think he hit it as well as he can hit it, but he muscled that ball to the wall,” Soria said. “He’s a strong guy. He hit it hard.” Sano ran hard, too. Sano beat a relay throw in the first inning to stave off a double play after his bouncer back to the mound and later scored on Robbie Grossman’s single. In the fifth, the burly slugger ran fast enough after his routine grounder to be safe when shortstop Alcides Escobar threw high to first for an error. Byron Buxton raced home from second base to score on the play, touching home

Soria picked up the loss. plate as he hurdled Sano’s bat with a head-first dive to elude Butera’s tag. Grossman and Buxton each homered for the Twins, who won for only the third time in their last 20 games. Relievers Matt Strahm and Kelvin Herrera followed Soria, each with a hand in the defeat. “I feel like I’ve got to hand the ball off in the eighth inning,” Duffy said. “I felt like I had that kind of stuff tonight.” Dozier didn’t hit a home run for Minnesota, ending his club-tying record at five straight games. He did start a dazzling double play to finish the fifth inning,

with a diving stop of Eric Hosmer’s grounder and a glove flick to second base to get the ball out while he was flat on the dirt. Alex Wimmers (1-1) pitched a scoreless seventh in relief of Kyle Gibson to record his first major league victory. Brandon Kintzler gave up Jarrod Dyson’s twoout RBI single before finishing the ninth inning for his 14th save in 16 attempts.

MAJOR-LEAGUE ROUNDUP

Oakland glimpses bright future The Associated Press

American League Athletics 4, Angels 1 Oakland, Calif. — The entire infield ran to the mound to congratulate Jharel Cotton on a memorable major league debut, and he showed last-place Oakland a glimpse of a promising future when the team beat Los Angeles Wednesday. The 24-year-old righthander (1-0) looked poised from the moment he stepped on the rubber in the first. Cotton impressed with four pitches, dazzling with his changeup, showing strong command of his fastball and mixing in some solid curveballs and sliders. C.J. Cron homered on a 3-2 pitch leading off the seventh with a drive that tipped off the glove of center fielder Brett Eibner, someone manager Bob Melvin wanted to evaluate at the position. Eibner hit an RBI double and Yonder Alonso and Max Muncy added run-scoring singles to back Cotton. Ryan Madson, Oakland’s third reliever, finished for his 29th save.

Rays 7, Orioles 6 St. Petersburg, Fla. — Corey Dickerson had a go-ahead RBI double in the seventh inning to help Tampa Bay beat Baltimore and deny the latter team a three-game sweep. Baltimore started the day one game ahead of Detroit for the second AL wild card and one game back of AL East co-leaders Boston and Toronto. Dickerson, in a 2 for 28 slide, tied the score 6-all with an RBI single in the fifth and got the decisive hit during the seventh off Mychal Givens (8-2). J.J. Hardy drove in two on a second-inning double and Michael Bourn hit a solo homer during a three-run third that put Baltimore ahead 5-3. Alex Meyer (0-2) struck out five but walked four in 3 1/3 innings, allowing one run on one hit. He became the 14th different Angels starting pitcher this season.

The Tigers wasted a chance to move into a tie with Baltimore for the second wild card. The teams begin a three-game series Friday in Detroit. Jose Abreu led off the eighth with a single for his third hit and scored on Justin Morneau’s double off Shane Greene (3-4). After Todd Frazier grounded out, Garcia singled to right-center. Tyler Saladino and Adam Eaton added RBI singles. Chris Beck (2-1) got four outs in relief before David Robertson worked a shaky ninth for his 35th save and second in two days. The start was delayed 40 minutes for a threat of thunderstorms that never arrived on a steamy day with the heat index approaching 100 degrees.

ond AL wild card and are 3 1/2 behind skidding Toronto, which began the night tied with Boston atop the AL East. The Red Sox started later in San Diego. The Orioles lost 7-6 at Tampa Bay. Marcus Stroman (9-7) struck out eight in five innings but the Blue Jays lost for the fifth time in six games. They were swept for the third time this season, first since May 16-18 by Tampa Bay.

Indians 6, Astros 5 Cleveland — Carlos Carrasco overcame a home run and an apparent bug in his eye to pitch into the eighth inning, and Cleveland defeated Houston. The game-time temperature was 87 degrees, causing swarms of midges to journey from Lake Erie to the muggy ballpark. Carrasco (11-7) allowed Colby Rasmus’ two-run homer in the fourth, one batter after the game was stopped briefly when one of the bugs appeared to get in his eye. The right-hander regrouped after the home run, allowing four runs in 7 1/3 innings. Mike Napoli’s two-run homer off Doug Fister (12-11) gave Cleveland a 4-3 lead in the fifth. Pinch-hitter Brandon Guyer added a two-run double in the inning and the Indians extended their lead over Detroit to 5 1/2 games in the AL Central.
