School boards group sets priorities for new formula

By Peter Hancock phancock@ljworld.com

Olathe — An organization representing school boards in Kansas said Thursday that the next education funding formula may need to look a lot like

the old one that Kansas lawmakers repealed last year.

But the Kansas Association of School Boards said it wanted to be careful not to fall back on the verbiage and jargon of the old formula, something Republican leaders in the Legislature

have said they have no interest in reviving.

The Kansas Association of School Boards unveiled its list of priorities during a news conference in the Olathe school district, mainly in response to Gov. Sam Brownback’s re-

Leaders with the city’s utilities department said the in-house testing — once it is up and running — could potentially support policies for additional city sampling or private testing. Those decisions, though, won’t be made for several months, once the lead-testing lab is fully operational.

“Our procedures are going to have to be reviewed and we’ll have to make the decision as to what sampling we’re going to do and how often we’re going to do it,” said Jeanette Klamm, a management analyst with the city’s utility department.

“That’ll all be decided once we get (the equipment) on site and get it ready to use.”

The City Commission recently authorized the purchase of more than $120,000 of laboratory equipment to test water in-house for lead and other metals as part of the Lawrence H2O Lead Awareness Program.

In the proposal for the purchase, it was noted that city water is below mandated “action levels” of 15 parts per billion for lead; however, the potential for lead contamination still exists and there is no safe level of lead.

Lead is especially harmful for infants and children, and even low levels of lead in blood have been shown to affect IQ, ability to pay attention and academic achievement, according to the Centers for Disease Control. The effects of lead exposure cannot be corrected.

While the city’s water starts off essentially lead free, once it leaves the city’s water main it can be contaminated by private plumbing systems that contain lead. While some tap samples tested by the city are at zero, others were as high as 9.6 ppb.

As required by the Environmental Protection Agency, the city tests 30 tap samples for lead every three years. With about 32,000 water meters in Lawrence, those samples amount to a fraction of a percent of the homes, businesses and schools within the city.

before 1986 are more likely to have lead in their plumbing, and lead can be found in multiple places in the plumbing system, such as pipes, fittings, soldering and faucets.

The school district has taken some action, according to district spokeswoman Julie Boyle. She said that the district’s schools do not contain lead piping and that the district has made “extensive plumbing upgrades, including copper piping, new faucets, fixtures and water fountains.” Boyle said the district has not tested water samples for lead but that it has consulted with a water quality lab.

“Since our facilities don’t fit the criteria, there isn’t any reason to believe it’s an issue,” Boyle said via email.

Once Lawrence’s lab is operating, water quality staff with the city will perform lead testing in the newly expanded laboratory at the Kansas River Wastewater Treatment Plant in lieu of outsourcing to other laboratories. Klamm said the city’s lab will likely be fully operational in January.

“Once we get it purchased, of course there’s a lag time between now and when we’ll actually get the instrument, and then there’s at least another couple of months of proving time if everything goes well to get it set up,” Klamm said. “This is a really complex piece of equipment; it’s not something where you can just plug it in and then throw a sample in there and you’re ready to roll.”

Chief among those were three components that were central to the school funding formula that lawmakers repealed last year: overall adequacy of school funding; equitable distribution of funding across the state’s 286 school districts; and flexibility for local districts to raise additional money through local taxes to provide programs and services that go beyond the minimum state requirements.

Lawrence school board Vice President Shannon Kimball, who is also a regional vice president for KASB this year, said she agreed with the principles the organization outlined Thursday.

“They align Kimball with the priorities we’ve discussed in Lawrence as a district,” she said. “And we will be developing input to share with the governor.”

Kimball said the school board will discuss its own priorities over the next few weeks and will submit its own comments to the governor’s staff, probably by early October.

Prior to 2015, Kansas had a school funding formula that was based on those same concepts.

It began by giving each school district a uniform, per-pupil amount of funding that was theoretically tied to the actual cost of providing the required educational services.

And in calculating each district’s enrollment, additional weight was given to certain hard-to-teach populations such as students from low-income

or non-English speaking households.

Funding was provided through a uniform statewide property tax of 20 mills. Districts were allowed to levy additional money under what was called a “local option budget” to provide enhanced programs and services.

They could also levy taxes for big-ticket purchases through their capital outlay funds and to make bond and interest payments.

What caused the most consternation among legislators, however, was the requirement to subsidize those additional local taxes for districts with less property wealth so they could raise comparable amounts of money as wealthier districts using comparable tax levies.

The formula used to calculate those equalization payments was hugely complicated, they complained, and it was nearly impossible for lawmakers to predict from one year to the next how much those equalization payments would cost as real estate prices rose or fell in various parts of the state.

In 2015, after learning that an increase in equalization aid they had approved the year before was going to cost tens of millions of dollars more than expected, lawmakers repealed that formula and replaced it for two years with a system of block grants that effec-

System CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A

Douglas County Sheriff’s Office Sgt. Kristen Dymacek said while the county does not have VINE in place yet, there is an existing system which allows anybody to track local jail inmates.

A move over to VINE would allow victims to rely on just one source for offender information, rather than having to visit a number of independent websites, Dymacek said.

Currently, county officials are discussing adopting VINE, Dymacek said, but it’s unclear when they will make the switch.

Eighteen counties are currently using VINE, and Schmidt said the remaining counties should be using the new system within the next two years.

As the county continues to discuss its options, Dymacek said money is the biggest concern with the project.

“The challenge in implementing the program is that there would be an ongoing yearly cost that each county would have to budget for to utilize the VINE system,” Dymacek said.

The process for establishing the new system remains under review by the sheriff’s office, Dymacek said.

The sheriff’s office’s current system allows anybody to view inmates in the custody of Douglas County, whether they remain in the county or are “farmed out to another jail,” Dymacek said. The system can also send out notifications when a specific inmate is released from jail.

VINE both sends notifications and shows each inmate’s scheduled date of release.

Viewers may also access offender information for inmates in participating states.

Douglas County’s current inmate information system can be found online at www.dgso.org/ web.

It was constructed on the footprint of an older wood church that had burned down. Helping build the case for its historic pedigree was a visit from Bishop Milton Wright, the father of Wilbur and Orville Wright, who ordained a few Radical United Brethren ministers there after that group split from the United Brethren with which Lane University of Lecompton was associated.

Sanford said the city purchased the building in 1933 after services ended at the church in 1927.

The majority of the wireless water meters that the city of Eudora is installing are in place, and the rest should be installed in the next two months.

Eudora City Manager Barack Matite said the first half of the new electrical meters still to be installed are to be delivered this month, with the rest coming in October. The city then will hire a private contractor for their installation, he said. The city anticipates installing the electric meters in November and December, but that schedule is dependent on the weather and the contractor’s schedule, Matite said. It will be around March or April before the city enjoys the full benefit of the new system, he said.

The city experienced some hiccups with the new water metering system with the first round of billing in July. Customers found water bills higher than expected because a couple of days were added to the billing cycle, and some customers experienced higher charges because the new meters read their water use more accurately. To help customers, the city extended the payment deadline for July bills.

The city put out a bid for the concessions contract this summer. The contract covers Sports Pavilion Lawrence, Clinton Lake Youth Sports Complex, Clinton Lake Adult Softball Complex, Holcom Park Athletic Complex, as well as both the indoor and outdoor aquatic centers.

Two separate companies could split up those locations, as the bid provides the option to make a proposal for only the concessions at the Sports Pavilion, 100 Rock Chalk Lane. When Hy-Vee operated the cafe, it sold sandwiches, wraps, fruit, salads and a variety of snacks.

Those concessions were offered mainly during tournaments or when several youth games were scheduled, said Tim Laurent, recreation operations manager for the city.

Laurent said that the parks and recreation department is currently conducting interviews for the concession services, and a decision will likely be announced early next week.

Restore cuts The Kansas Board of Regents’ request to get back lost state funding is an important step in controlling tuition costs.

T

he Kansas Board of Regents was right Wednesday to seek a restoration of the 4 percent cuts in state funding ordered this year.

Regents asked for no other increases in state funding for the state’s public institutions of higher education, including the University of Kansas.

In May, shortly after signing a final budget bill for the fiscal year that began July 1, Gov. Sam Brownback ordered $97 million in cuts to the new budget to make up for revenue shortfalls. Nearly a third of those cuts, $30.7 million, came from the Regents universities, including $7 million from the University of Kansas campus in Lawrence, and $3.7 million from KU Medical Center in Kansas City, Kan. “Our priority is trying to get that 4 percent back,” Regents Chairwoman Zoe Newton said.

The state of Kansas has struggled mightily with revenue shortfalls and budget woes throughout Brownback’s Kansas tuition tenure as goveris up $2,800 nor. The state Legper year since islature has largely 2000, ranking it tried to fix those problems with 36th in tuition cuts in two areas: increases transportation and since 2000. higher education.

But legislators Meanwhile, should keep in state funding mind that cuts to in Kansas has the latter amount decreased to a tax on Kansas families with col$2,800 per lege-age students. student in that A recent report time. by the data journalism website FiveThirtyEight demonstrated that cuts in state funding — not professor salaries, administrative costs, lavish dorms or fancy recreation centers — are overwhelmingly to blame for an alarming increase in tuition at the nation’s public universities and colleges. The report showed that from 2000 to 2014, only three states — energy-rich Wyoming, Alaska and North Dakota — kept state funding for higher education on pace with inflation and enrollment growth. Kansas tuition is up $2,800 per year since 2000, ranking it 36th in tuition increases since 2000.

Meanwhile, state funding in Kansas has decreased $2,800 per student in that time. FiveThirtyEight said 98.1 percent of higher education tuition increases in Kansas can be attributed to state funding cuts.

It’s important to note that the FiveThirtyEight report only goes through 2014.

The impacts of state funding cuts and tuition increases in 2015-16 haven’t been accounted for.

For the time being, Kansas has one of the more affordable average tuition rates for public post-secondary education in the nation. But that’s not going to last if the Legislature continues to shift financial pressures onto higher education and make it more difficult for working Kansas families to afford college.

The governor and the Legislature should work to restore the 4 percent cuts as the Board of Regents requested. It’s an economic investment in Kansas worth making.

Trump’s deals could spell danger Washington — Consider two quotations, the first engraved in modern history and the other less than a week old, and ask yourself what they have in common: “This morning I had another talk with the German Chancellor, Herr Hitler, and here is the paper which bears his name upon it as well as mine. ... I believe it is peace for our time.”

And then: “I think I’d be able to get along with him. ... If he says great things about me, I’m gonna say great things about him. I’ve already said he is really very much of a leader.”

David Ignatius

davidignatius@washpost.com

“

Trump seems to see commitments made to smaller states as expendable in the process of making deals with the big guys.”

The first quotation, of course, is from Neville Chamberlain in September 1938, at the time of the Munich Agreement that sought a peaceful accommodation with Germany, allowing annexation of the Sudetenland in Czechoslovakia. The second is Donald Trump’s encomium in last week’s NBC forum for Russian President Vladimir Putin, who has been attacking the U.S. and its allies in Ukraine, Syria and cyberspace.

The name given to Chamberlain’s policy was “appeasement,” and it’s come to be seen as one of the catastrophic mistakes of history.

But it’s easy to understand why accommodation with the German dictator seemed sensible at the time. The nightmare of war was still fresh for the British public.

People were worried about

jobs. Britain was exhausted and demoralized; Chamberlain judged that his country wasn’t ready for another war.

Political analogies are often unfair, especially ones that invoke the overused Munich parallel. But this one is worth considering: The problem with Trump isn’t (as some critics have argued) that he’s a reckless and potentially genocidal aggressor. No, the danger is that he’s precisely what he says he is — a dealmaker who thinks he could craft agreements with despots that could bring peace and security.

Trump seems to see commitments made to smaller states as expendable in the process of making deals with the big guys. When he linked U.S. willingness to defend the Baltic States and other NATO allies to what they pay into the alliance, it was a Chamberlain-like emphasis on national self-interest, as opposed to sticking your neck out for possibly undeserving little guys.

This idea of reaching agreements with Putin’s Russia isn’t crazy, any more than was Chamberlain’s desire to escape war in 1938.

And Trump actually deserves credit for raising this issue early in the Re-

publican primary debates.

But any such negotiation must be done carefully and unsentimentally, without the mutual self-congratulation that has characterized Trump’s comments about Putin.

Secretary of State John Kerry is pursuing his own version of a deal with Putin, in the Syria agreement announced Friday night. Kerry has concluded that there’s no way to reduce the violence in Syria without working with Moscow. But Kerry has negotiated very cautiously, with the Pentagon looking over his shoulder at each detail before he signs off. He has specified what the Russians will have to deliver, in terms of calm on the battlefield and grounding the Syrian regime’s air power, for this deal to work.

When U.S. leaders think about negotiating with Russia, they need to be sure their model is John F. Kennedy in the Cuban Missile Crisis, rather than Chamberlain at Munich. Appeasement happens when other nations are treated as sacrificial pawns, and when the adversary is sentimentalized. These are precisely the areas where Trump’s comments have been worrying.

One of the most useful cautions about dealing

PUBLIC FORUM

Affordable solutions To the editor: With relatively low wages, high rent/mortgages and incomplete public transportation in Lawrence, it is clear that living and working here is unaffordable for too many of us.

Senior citizens on fixed incomes, single parents/single-income families, service industry and many working class, even “high paying” jobs, just don’t pay enough to keep housing costs at the 30 percent guideline. About 20 percent of our friends and neighbors suffer life in poverty.

Recently, city leaders hosted a six-hour study session to define the problem and work toward consensus. Representatives from affected businesses, social services and Justice Matters rolled up our collective sleeves to set goals to identify funding sources, develop partnerships, increase units while reducing costs and to build sustainable revenues for the Affordable Housing Trust Fund while putting resources into best practices. KU figures greatly into increased housing costs; hopefully leaders there will take ownership in this critical issue.

There is reason for optimism but the challenges are vast — most notably, creating permanent, affordable housing stock. The goal is to solve the entire affordable housing crisis within 10 years. Ownership of the issue by our community as a whole, participation, and real partnerships are needed.

Steve Ozark, Lawrence

with Putin’s Russia was offered by Hillary Clinton in a memo she sent President Obama in January 2013, just before she left office as secretary of State. In her memoir, “Hard Choices,” she recalled: “In stark terms, I advised the president that difficult days lay ahead and that our relationship with Moscow would likely get worse before it got better. ... Putin was under the mistaken impression that we needed Russia more than Russia needed us.”

Russia has been pushing the envelope of power at all its seams. The U.S. needs to establish clear limits — by negotiations, where that’s possible, and also by showing that it’s willing to use military power, if necessary. That’s precisely the tightrope that Kerry has been trying to walk — seeking more military leverage against Moscow, even as he negotiates. The test of Kerry’s seriousness will be his willingness to walk away from the Syria deal if Russia doesn’t deliver.

We’re not in Neville Chamberlain territory, not even close. But this is a slippery slope, not just for Trump, but for the United States.

OLD HOME TOWN

From the Lawrence Daily JournalWorld for Sept. 16, 1916: l “A. R. Kagi, occupation dairyyears man and thorn in the flesh of the city ago milk inspector for diversion, spent a IN 1916 short time in the city jail yesterday afternoon. Just why Mr. Kagi is not in jail now is the subject of much comment around the city hall today. No bond has been put up for his appearance for trial. When a $20 check which Kagi had given as bond earlier in the week was found yesterday not to be backed up by funds in the bank, after he had failed to appear for trial and his bond was forfeited, a bench warrant was issued for his arrest. The warrant was served about the middle of the afternoon and Kagi was taken to the city jail.

There Chief J. M. Boyd told him he would have to go to jail or provide $100 cash bond. Kagi refused to give bond and was sent to jail. Along in the evening it was found that he was no longer there. No record of his release appears on the police court books.

Commissioner Holyfield was a much perturbed man when he learned today that Kagi had again turned the joke on the city administration which is making an effort to enforce the milk ordinance. He made numerous inquiries as to who had unlocked the jail door and allowed Mr. Kagi to walk out, but found no one who had the answer…. Mr. Holyfield says he is not yet through with the case.” l “The University of Kansas will be closed next Friday afternoon to allow the students to attend the Douglas county fair.”

Justice Dept. to confront heroin crisis Prosecutors urged to cooperate across state lines with info about doctor abuse, trafficking Kevin Johnson USA TODAY

The Justice Department is preparing to launch a renewed strategy to address the unrelenting scourge of heroin and opioid addiction, in part by seeking to accelerate links between overprescribing doctors and distribution networks across the country.

The plan, outlined by Attorney WASHINGTON

“The people who look at this problem realize quickly how devastating it has been to families, to communities, to public health dollars, to law enforcement resources.”

General Loretta Lynch in an interview with USA TODAY, is part of an eleventh-hour push by the Obama administration against a public health crisis that claims nearly 100 people each day in the USA. In a memo likely to be circulated next week to all 94 U.S. attorney offices, Lynch said prosecutors are urged to more readily share information across state lines about prescription drug abuses by physicians that

Lynch said federal prosecutors will be directed to coordinate their enforcement efforts with public health authorities in their districts, as part of an overall strategy that puts equal emphasis on prevention and treatment.

Episcopalian boost to women

WASHINGTON For 126 federal inmates who received presidential clemency last month, the good news might have come with a dose of disappointment.

President Obama granted their requests for commutations, using his constitutional pardon power to shorten their sentences for drug offenses. But instead of releasing them, he left them with years — and in some cases, more than a decade — remaining to serve on their sentences.

As Obama has begun to grant commutations to inmates convicted of more serious crimes, he has increasingly commuted their sentences without immediately releasing them. These are what are known as “term” commutations, as opposed to the more common “time served” commutations, and they represent a departure from recent practice.

Unlike a full pardon, commutations shorten sentences but leave other consequences of the conviction in place.

In urban war on rats, cities turn to chilling killer: Dry ice Chicago latest to launch pilot program Aamer Madhani @AamerISmad USA TODAY

Some of America’s biggest metros have unleashed a chilling — and seemingly effective — new killer in the unending urban war against rats: dry ice.

Sanitation officials in the nation’s third-largest city told USA TODAY they recently launched a pilot program at four Chicago parks to test the effectiveness of CHICAGO

dropping chunks of dry ice — frozen carbon dioxide — into burrows to try to suffocate rats as the dry ice sublimates from a solid to a gas.

Chicago began the experiment with dry ice in late August, following Boston, which became the dry ice pioneer when it launched its pilot in March, and New York City, which launched its test program in May. “When I first brought up the idea, people around here thought I was cuckoo for Cocoa Puffs,” said Leo Boucher, assistant commissioner for Boston’s Inspectional Services, which consulted with Chicago as it launched its

dry ice pilot. “But we all became believers. It works.”

The odorless gas in solid form — commonly used by stagehands to create an artificial fog effect and by merchants trying to keep perishables from spoiling — can be deadly to small animals at high concentrations.

This week, USA TODAY observed Chicago sanitation department workers at one of the city’s oldest parks scoop chunks of smoking dry ice into a burrow before quickly covering the entry and exit holes with dirt and newspaper to stop any rats from escaping as the -109.3-degree gas dissipated.

The asphyxiated dead rats then decompose in place and out of sight of city denizens who count the disease-carrying vermin among the vilest of indignities of urban living.

Sanitation workers say they treat burrows during morning hours when rats are less active and most likely to be huddled inside the burrows.

The asphyxiated dead rats then decompose in place and out of sight of city denizens who count the disease-carrying vermin among the vilest of indignities of urban living.

“We are seeing 60% fewer burrows in areas where we are using the dry ice,” said Charles Williams, Chicago’s streets and sanitation commissioner. “It’s more environmentally friendly, and it’s very humane on the rodents as well.”

Long ago, violent death took Otzi the iceman Rick Hampson @rickhampson USA TODAY

BOLZANO,

ITALY Twenty-five years ago this month, two hikers stumbled upon one of the great archaeological finds of the past century: the frozen, mummified remains and personal possessions of a man who died about 5,200 years ago.

“Otzi” (named for the Otztal Alps where he was found) is on display at the South Tyrol Museum of Archaeology in a 21-degree cell with an observation window.

Scientists have learned a lot about Otzi aka the Iceman. He was 5-foot-5, 110 pounds and 46 years old. He was arthritic and lactose-intolerant. He had 61 small tattoos, possibly to relieve chronic pain.

And he was murdered.

Yes, the world’s oldest “wet” mummy (he was covered in ice and snow, unlike Egypt’s “dry” mummies) may also be its oldest confirmed homicide victim.

I came to town eager to see Otzi. Years ago at bedtime, I’d read our sons a kids’ book about the discovery in 1991 and what it told us about life at the end of the Stone Age. The rest of the story, it turned out, was the stuff of nightmares.

In 2001, shortly after I’d retired from bedtime reading, Xrays and a CT scan revealed a ti-

The world’s oldest “wet” mummy (he was covered in ice and snow, unlike Egypt’s “dry” mummies) may also be its oldest confirmed homicide victim.

A. OCHSENREITER, SOUTH TYROL MUSEUM OF ARCHAEOLOGY

Scientists reconstructed an image of the Iceman. ny flint arrowhead tip in the mummy’s left shoulder. It would have pierced a key artery and induced rapid, fatal bleeding.

The arrow, scientists calculated, was shot from about 32 yards. The “murder weapon,’’ as museum guide Marlene Pfeifer describes it, was never found.

Since many other objects were

still on or near Otzi when his body was discovered, the assumption is the assailant-archer retrieved the fatal arrow.

Otzi bears other signs of violent death: uA deep wound in his right hand suggests hand-to-hand combat days or hours before his death.

uDifferent types of pollen in his system indicate he climbed from mountain to valley to mountain shortly before his death — possibly fleeing or chasing someone or something. uA serious head wound could have come from a blow or a fall. uA knife was clutched in his hand.

Mysteries abound. Only two of the 14 arrows in Otzi’s quiver had their flint tips; the rest were unfinished, possibly because he’d fired others recently. His bow was unstrung and hadn’t been used.

Otzi is a big deal in Bolzano, a charming provincial capital just south of the awesome Dolomite Mountains. The city had no big cultural tourist attraction until the iceman’s arrival after the resolution of a dispute between Austria and Italy over which nation he was found in.

The museum was basically built to house his remains.

When it opened in 1998, one of its four floors was devoted to Otzi; now, because of public demand, three are.

Otzi is the subject of constant study. In recent years, scientists have learned the color of his eyes (brown) and his blood type (O-positive). They’ve found that his hip joint was worn down by walking. He had whipworm, an intestinal parasite; suffered from Lyme disease; and had many cavities. (He apparently did not floss.) Next week, scientists will gather for the “Third Balzano Mummy Congress” marking the

Twenty-five years ago this month, two hikers discovered the frozen, mummified remains and personal possessions of a man who died about 5,200 years ago.

25th anniversary.

As important as Otzi’s corpse, which was half-frozen in ice but undisturbed by animals, are the items discovered with him, including his fine copper ax, comfortable shoes, fire starting kit and assortment of herbal remedies.

Our fascination with Otzi’s life is haunted by the memory of how it ended.

You can visit the museum every day except Monday, plunk down nine euros and see the famous iceman lying in state.

And you see something else: that violent death extends into our species’ mistiest past. In this year of Aleppo and Nice and Orlando and Dallas, it’s a scary bedtime story.

Hampson is USA TODAY national reporter.

Obama acts as judge in chief v CONTINUED FROM 1B

ma’s 673 commutations shows a marked change in strategy on his clemency initiative, one of the key criminal justice efforts of his presidency.

Before last month, almost all the inmates whose sentences were commuted were released within four months, just long enough for the Bureau of Prisons to arrange for court-supervised monitoring and other re-entry programs. In the past two rounds of presidential clemency in August, 39% of commutations came with a long string attached: a year or more left to serve on the sentence.

The strategy has allowed Obama to commute the sentences of more serious offenders. Before last month, 13% of inmates receiving clemency had used a firearm in the offense. For those granted presidential mercy last month, it was 22%.

In undoing sentences for convicts who aren’t ready to be released, Obama acts as a sort of sentencing judge in chief.

Department and the White House Counsel’s Office, the president effectively recalculates the sentences using the federal guidelines in effect today — as opposed to the harsher penalties mandated by Congress in the 1980s and ’90s.

“There are a number of cases where it’s a genuine resentencing.

It’s unprecedented,” said former pardon attorney Margaret Love, who served under Presidents George H.W. Bush and Bill Clinton. “That signals to me that the power is being used in a way it’s never been used before.”

There may be a political calculation to the new clemency strategy, reflecting a general understanding that there’s no guarantee that a President Hillary Clinton or Donald Trump would continue Obama’s signature clemency initiative. Though it’s not entirely settled, most scholars say a commutation warrant cannot be revoked by a future president once it’s granted, delivered and accepted.

Explaining his philosophy on commutation power at a news conference last month — the day after he set a single-day clemency record by granting 214 commutations — Obama gave the example of an inmate who has already served a 25-year sentence but would have served only 20 if sentenced under today’s laws.

“What we try to do is to screen through and find those individuals who have paid their debt to society, that have behaved themselves and tried to reform themselves while incarcerated and we think have a good chance of being able to use that second chance well,” he said.

White House Counsel Neil Eggleston, who’s the last stop for a clemency application before it goes to the president, acknowledged the change in strategy Aug. 3, the day Obama issued 214 commutations.

“While some commutation recipients will begin to process out of federal custody immediately, others will serve more time,” he wrote in a blog post. “While these term reductions will require applicants to serve additional time, it will also allow applicants to continue their rehabilitation by completing educational and selfimprovement programming and to participate in drug or other counseling services.”

Critics say Obama is no longer reserving his clemency power for extraordinary circumstances but substituting his own judgment for that of Congress and the courts.

“To impose these things, and to have the commutation take effect after he leaves office — and even after the presidency of someone who succeeds him — seems inappropriate to me,” said Rep. Bob

Goodlatte, R-Va., chairman of the House Judiciary Committee.

Goodlatte acknowledged that the power to “grant reprieves and pardons for offenses against the United States” is one of the Constitution’s most ironclad powers, and amending the Constitution would be difficult.

The long drug sentences were mandated by Congress under a tough-on-drugs policy of mandatory minimum sentences, which gave federal judges little leeway in giving drug offenders long prison terms. Through a series of Supreme Court decisions and changes, those sentences are much shorter — especially for crack cocaine, which often gave African-American offenders longer sentences than white offenders dealing a comparable amount of powder cocaine.

Take the case of Alfonso Allen.

He pleaded guilty in 2006 of being a lieutenant in a Miami drug trafficking ring that ran a crack cocaine operation they called “the Mint.”

Like 71 inmates granted clemency by Obama, he was a career

offender. After getting 30 years in prison, he withdrew his guilty plea, arguing that the trial judge pressured him by saying a guilty verdict at trial would result in a life sentence and an exit from prison “in a box.” Allen went to trial with a new judge and — as the original judge predicted — he was sentenced to life.

Obama effectively resentenced Allen to the original 30 years.

With good time, he will be released as early as May 14, 2032.

In previous administrations — or even the first seven and a half years of Obama’s — cases like that might have been denied and told to reapply later.

When Congress passed the Fair Sentencing Act of 2010, it stopped short of abolishing mandatory minimums for offenses committed before 2010. Though Congress is considering a number of proposals to change that, Goodlatte said Obama is continuing a pattern of going around lawmakers and acting alone.

“He has effectively set himself up as a judge,” Goodlatte said.

forcement resources,” the attorney general said. “There is no one magic bullet for this.”

Though opioid and heroin addiction have earned the distinction as the single greatest drug threat in the USA, largely because of a casualty rate that has nearly quadrupled since 1999, the federal government’s effort to counter or even slow it has been spotty.

This year, the Obama administration requested nearly $1.1 billion as part of a plan to pay for drug treatment, invoking a common refrain that heroin and other opioids — oxycodone, hydrocodone and methodone — are responsible for more deaths than everyday car crashes. After Congress approved landmark legislation in July for expanded drug addiction treatment and prevention, it did not include the $181 million to fund the measure.

The deadly drug epidemic, which shadowed the early presidential primaries in addictionplagued New Hampshire and Ohio, has largely receded from public discussion during the general election.

“I have never seen anything like this,” Sen. Kelly Ayotte, RN.H., said during an appearance this year before the Senate Judiciary Committee with Sen. Jeanne Shaheen, D-N.H., to outline the human wreckage that addiction has left behind in their tiny state. “This is about real people dying.”

Michael Botticelli, director of National Drug Control Policy, said Thursday that a key part of the administration’s renewed effort against heroin and opioid abuse will be to push Congress in the remaining days of the administration to provide the funding for the legislation it approved this year and the $1.1 billion in grants

sought by the White House, which will stage a series of public events next week to call attention to the problem.

“The biggest area where we have fallen short is filling the gap between people who need treatment and those able to get it,” Botticelli said, adding that it remains a challenge to “keep people alive so that they can get into treatment.”

“We need more treatment capacity. We cannot wait to save people. This requires a response commensurate with the size of the epidemic,” the director said.

Lynch said, “We’ve been looking at this for a long time with an awareness that you can’t just have an enforcement strategy alone.”

In Manchester, N.H., which has long been ravaged by heroin addiction and opioid abuse, officials largely go it alone in their efforts to combat the epidemic, which has claimed 74 people this year out of 570 suspected overdose calls.

Manchester Fire Chief Daniel Goonan, whose department is on the front line of a daily life-anddeath effort, has taken an unconventional route in an attempt to cut into the casualty count. Since May, Goonan has opened the city’s fire stations to addicts seeking help with treatment, housing and other services.

He said the response has been encouraging. In the past four months, more than 480 people have come through the doors needing assistance.

“All I know is that we’re dealing with a problem on our streets, and we’re operating independently without the state or feds,” Goonan said. “But I know that money isn’t going to be there forever, so our ability to sustain what we are doing is always going to be in question.”

AMERICA’S MARKETS What to watch Adam Shell @adamshell USA TODAY

U.S. consumers, who dipped into their wallets less to buy stuff from retailers last month, might have further reduced the already dwindling odds of an interest rate hike from the Federal Reserve next week.

Retail sales fell 0.3% in August, a far bigger decline than the 0.1% drop economists’ forecast. The fact the consumer — the driving force of the economy — is pulling back likely will nudge the Janet Yellen-led Fed even more in the direction of the no-hike camp, Wall Street pros say.

While the Fed was already seen as leaning against a hike — after a weak August employment report and the weakest reading on the services part of the economy in

six years — the retail sales miss makes a hike even a lower probability event than it already was.

Futures markets are now only pricing in a 12% chance of a rate hike at the Fed’s meeting next week, CME Group says.

The weak data released Thursday, including the disappointing retail sales, “largely throws a cold bucket of water over expectations for a September hike,” says Bill Northey, chief investment officer at the Private Client Group at U.S. Bank. “It becomes a very remote possibility.”

Adds Michael Dolega, senior economist at TD Economics: “(The weak retail sales report) is just going to provide more ammunition for more dovish-leaning (Fed) members to say, ‘We should wait for things to improve’ before raising rates.

Starbucks (SBUX) was the most-bought stock across all SigFig portfolios groups in late August.

More Walmart stores in Canada will stop taking Visa 16 stores in Manitoba in squabble over fees Nathan Bomey @NathanBomey USA TODAY

Shoppers who slap down Visa credit cards to pay for their purchases at some Walmart stores in Canada might be in for a shock.

The big-box chain will stop accepting Visa credit cards at its 16 stores in Manitoba province, Walmart spokesman Randy Hargrove confirmed Thursday in an inter-

view, the latest escalation in a tiff over credit card transaction fees.

Although still limited to a fraction of Walmart’s vast network, the fight reflects a deepening divide over the transaction fees Visa charges in Canada, where Walmart operates more than 400 stores.

The boycott started this summer with Walmart’s three stores in Thunder Bay, Ontario.

Hargrove said Walmart is “working to keep prices low” for shoppers — and that apparently includes the hidden cost of those fees.

“Unfortunately Visa has not

been willing to provide a reasonable rate to continue accepting their cards,” he said. “We believe credit card fees should be lower for everyone, whether they’re a

large retailer, small business or charity.”

Visa said in a statement that the decision was “disappointing” but said the company “remains committed to actively working with Walmart so that Canadians can use their Visa cards wherever they wish to shop.”

In November 2014, Visa and Mastercard agreed to lower credit card transaction fees in Canada to 1.5% beginning in April 2015 amid mounting pressure from Canadian authorities to cap fees and pass along savings to merchants.

The Canadian finance minister

said Tuesday it would review recently completed “independent audit findings that both Visa and MasterCard have met their respective commitments to reduce credit card interchange fees” to ensure the companies are following through.

Hargrove said the timing of Walmart’s Manitoba boycott was not related to the Canadian finance minister’s announcement.

The boycott officially begins on Oct. 24. He declined to reveal details of Walmart’s fees arrangement with Visa.

Walmart shares rose 1.23% Thursday to close at $72.40.

LOS ANGELES Jimmy Kimmel will serve as TV-fan-in-chief – a role for which he’s eminently qualified – when he hosts the 68th Primetime Emmy Awards Sunday (ABC, 8 ET/5 PT). After a taping of his Emmy-nominated Jimmy Kimmel Live this week, the late-night host sat down with USA TODAY to talk Emmys, TV, presidential comedy and late night before heading off to the Microsoft Theater to prepare for his second stint as Emmy host.

Those jokes won’t write themselves.

Do you enjoy hosting the Emmys?

My idea of enjoyment is sitting on the couch at home.

But as far as show business goes, this is a fun event to do. You know a lot of the people in the audience. You see familiar and friendly faces, so that helps calm your nerves somewhat. And I really do love television, probably to an unhealthy degree, so it is fun to be in the middle of all that.

How mean can the monologue be?

I never want to hurt anybody’s feelings, but for the most part I think you know who can and can’t take it and that’s how you decide who gets it.

You’re really penalized for being a good sport.

Marc Anthony is 48. Amy Poehler is 45. Nick Jonas is 24.

ROBERT HANASHIRO, USA TODAY

Q A

Jimmy Kimmel Live is up for best variety talk series, so you’re a nominee, too.

There are five nominees and only, like, eight talk shows, so it’s important to get nominated.

You know how they say it’s an honor to be nominated? It’s a real dishonor not to be nominated.

How do you rate the quality of TV? I think it’s too good. If this continues, we’re going to have to quit our jobs and devote ourselves full-time to watching television. There’s too much to keep up with.

What do you think of Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump as comedy material?

I think they’re great subjects because they’re both very interesting. They’re caricatures in a way, and you have a lot of people who really don’t like them.

When Obama was running, it was kind of boring. I think (Mitt

Q A Q A

Romney) maybe did two weird things the whole time he was running, while Trump does two weird things every single day.

How come it’s been a year since the big latenight host shakeup, and there are no feuds?

I think it’s a result of the fact that your DVR and your computer make it so easy to see anything you want at any time.

There just isn’t that competition anymore where it’s 11:30 and I can only watch one thing. Now, you don’t have to choose.

Is there any part of the Emmys you would change?

I don’t understand why the accountants get so much time. Can’t they just pay them and keep them off the air? How much counting are they really doing? There are only a few thousand voters. One good computer program could figure that out.

feels like a part of the plan — something that will satisfy her need to feel needed without making a mess of the whole event.

You’ve taken many steps to try to help, and I commend your efforts.

Let’s hope she will be open to seeking help in the future.

Dear Annie: I am 62, and my only sibling, a brother, died 16 years ago.

Recently, I was told by an elderly cousin that I have a half brother. My father

Comedies of misery popular The comedy of misery is big right now. Half-hour comedies once consigned to pratfalls and laugh tracks have entered terrain formerly reserved for the tragic.

When these experiments work, as they do in FX’s “Louie,” you have something new and rather audacious. Two tragicomic series debut tonight. One had me laughing out loud from the start; the other left me feeling more miserable than amused.

Acclaimed in Britain, the comedy “Fleabag” (TVMA) begins streaming its six-episode season on Amazon Prime. Assured and audacious from the beginning, “Fleabag” stars Phoebe Waller-Bridge in the title role. She’s a young woman careening through a life of bad choices and sad situations, not all of them of her own making. Let’s just say she’s got issues with impulse control.

The series has a central narrative hook. Fleabag often stares at the camera mid-scene, breaking the so-called fourth wall, and tells the audience her real feelings about the situation at hand. And it’s no secret that her “true” feelings are often hilariously at odds with what she’s saying to other characters. In a less capable actress, this would seem gimmicky, but Waller-Bridge pulls it off.

This being a 21st-century tale of a single woman in the city, much of “Fleabag” revolves around the pursuit of sex in ways that seem to preclude real intimacy or happiness.

Colman is on a real tear of late, having starred in “Broadchurch,” “The Night Manager,” the weird little comedy “Flowers,” streaming on NBC’s comedy service Seeso, and now “Fleabag,” one of the better comedies to hit both sides of the Atlantic.

On a similar note, HBO launches the six-episode comedy “High Maintenance” (10 p.m., TV-MA).

This meandering series follows an overlapping collection of New Yorkers and their ragged lives and addictions. Ben Sinclair stars as an unnamed pot dealer who delivers his goods to an eclectic clientele.

The series’s sprawling cast offers plenty of opportunities for winning performances, particularly since so many characters appear to be playing a role, dissembling in plain site and “acting” for themselves and others. From moments of intimacy to soul-baring confessions at recovery centers, you never know when any moment is genuine or a joke, an improv bit or merely fodder for social media. It’s an interesting, even horrifying, contemplation of contemporary discourse. At the same time, the ratio of unhappiness and discomfort to comedy may be too high for many viewers.

As in “Fleabag,” sex is central to the story, but it is played here for boundary-pushing explicitness at the expense of humor.

Tonight’s other highlights O The gang returns on the third season premiere of “Z Nation” (7 p.m., Syfy, TV-14).

JACQUELINE BIGAR’S STARS

For Friday, Sept. 16: This year you bring a lot of ideas to the table. If you are single, you find that relating to potential suitors tends to be disruptive. If you are attached, the two of you often disagree.

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) +++ What you have decided not to share seems to spill out of your mouth at the least opportune moment. Tonight: Get some extra R and R. Taurus (April 20-May 20) +++++ You might witness so much confusion that you will wonder what is really going on. Tonight: Find your friends, or hang out with a loved one.

Gemini (May 21-June 20) +++++ Listen to your instincts regarding a professional matter. Stay centered, and don't let others trigger you or those around you. Tonight: A must appearance.

Cancer (June 21-July 22) ++++ Keep reaching out to someone at a distance. This person might not be in the best mood. Tonight: On center stage.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) ++++ Close relating continues to be your focus. A misunderstanding could emerge from out of nowhere and cause a problem. Tonight: Make time for a special person.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) ++++ You might want to take a stand, but would prefer to stay

selfish in trying to call him? — To Tell the Truth or Keep Quiet Dear Truth: It would be selfish to tell your half brother this world-shattering fact only because you’re lonely. There are other factors at play here.

He might benefit from knowing your dad’s medical history.

Perhaps you could enlist your cousin for help, as he or she seems to have more background on the situation. Your half brother is 50 — old enough to decide for himself what to do with the information. The man who raised him will always be his dad. Knowing about his biological father wouldn’t change that, and it might give him a deeper understanding of his own identity.

connected to the other party involved without creating a hassle. Tonight: Say "yes" to an offer that seems enticing.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) ++++ Listen more carefully to an associate who has meaningful insights, as he or she is more in touch with the issues and the people involved. Tonight: Out late.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) +++ You seem to be more together than you have been in the recent past. Curb spending if possible.

Tonight: Join a friend for dinner.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) +++ Pressure comes in from every which way. You might feel as if you are locked in a pattern and unable to handle a personal matter differently.

Tonight: Hang out at home.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) ++++ Confusion surrounds you. A misunderstanding stems from people not wanting to become a problem. Tonight: Return calls.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) ++++ Be more in touch with someone else's issues. You can't deny what is going on with you.

Tonight: Count your change.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) ++++ You might feel pressured by a situation that you don't think you can change. You probably are right.

Tonight: Defer to others for now.

His mother was married and let her husband think the son was his biological son. No one knows the truth except the cousin, the mom and me.

I called the mother up, and she was very belligerent. I told her I don’t want to cause trouble for her husband, the poor 80-year-old man who thinks this is his biological son. And I don’t want to cause trouble for my half brother, who thinks that man is his biological dad.

I had just called to see whether the family knows, but seeing as no one else does, I don’t want to say anything. I plan on sticking to that, but there are times when I really wish I could connect with my brother. Do you think there will be a time when I wouldn’t be

Dear Annie: We are a large group of middleaged siblings with one sister who has little engagement outside the home.

She is an empty nester.

Our problem occurs when it comes time for a family function. She wants to control the event to the point that we cannot enjoy it. The importance of these events to her self-worth is truly disturbing. We have regained some ground by politely initiating plans before she does, hosting events at our own homes or avoiding her during events if she’s in one of her controlling moods.

We love our sister, and we know she needs help.

For homebuyers, Kansas may be sunnier than Hawaii Associated Press

A

new report shows Hawaii has the nation’s highest average home prices, at more than four times the average home price in Kansas.

The 2016 Coldwell Banker Home Listing Report ranked states based on their average price for a home with four bedrooms and two bathrooms.

Hawaii took the top spot with average home prices at

The 2016 Coldwell Banker Home Listing Report shows Hawaii’s average home prices at nearly $905,000. Kansas’ average is $191,436. nearly $905,000. That’s about $325,000 more than homes in the second-priciest state, Massachusetts, and about $700,000 more than the average home in Kansas.

The figures represent an increase from the real estate company’s analysis last year, which found the aver-

age price of a four-bedroom home in Hawaii was about $655,000, Hawaii News Now reported.

Honolulu had the state’s highest average home prices this year at $1.2 million. The city ranked 14th among the nation’s municipalities, up from 17th in 2015.

The average price of a fourbedroom in Kapolei was listed at $708,000, up from $569,000 last year. In Ewa Beach, the average price is $653,000, compared to $597,000 last year.

The report found that the country’s most expensive market was Saratoga, California, where the average four-bedroom home costs $2.5 million. Detroit was ranked as the nation’s most affordable market, with an average four-bedroom home price of

$64,000.

Coldwell Banker’s annual report includes data for more than 2,000 real estate markets nationwide.

According to the Coldwell Banker Home Listing Report, the average listing price of a four-bedroom, two-bathroom home in Kansas is $191,436. The city in Kansas with the highest average price is Lenexa, at $254,500, followed by Overland Park at $254,296, and Shawnee at $229,500. Lawrence was not listed in the report.

If the prospect of unboxing your possessions in your new home seems daunting, John-Morgan and Lauren Bush, the founders of Unpackd NYC, have some advice.

hacks to take the pain out of the process. Here are the expert tips they swear by: l Unload boxes straight from the van to their designated room: Load the van so boxes for each room are stored together, then unload them directly into their new space. Unloading boxes into an entryway or holding area might seem fast, but it’s a short-term solution that will increase your workload. l Style your bedroom first: According to JohnMorgan, this is the most important room to prioritize. “Create a perfect bedroom to retreat to so that you can relax when it seems like everything else in your place is falling down,” he says.

30-year mortgage rates jump to 3.50 percent Washington (ap) — Long-term U.S. mortgage rates rose this week, with the benchmark 30-year loan reaching its highest level since June.

Rates remain at historically low levels, however.

Mortgage giant Freddie Mac said Thursday the average for the 30year fixed-rate mortgage jumped to 3.50 percent from 3.44 percent last week. It was the highest level since June, when it averaged over 3.60 percent. Still, the average 30-year rate is down from 3.91 percent a year ago, and is close to its all-time low of 3.31 percent in November 2012.

The 15-year fixed mortgage rate edged up to 2.77

percent from 2.76 percent.

Long-term mortgage rates tend to track the yield on 10-year Treasury notes, which rose sharply amid volatility in the U.S. stock market. The yield on the 10-year notes soared to 1.70 percent Wednesday from 1.54 percent a week earlier. It rose further to 1.72 percent Thursday morning.

To calculate average mortgage rates, Freddie Mac surveys lenders across the country at the beginning of each week.

The average doesn’t include extra fees, known as points, which most borrowers must pay to get the lowest rates. One point equals 1 percent of the loan amount.

The average fee for a 30-year mortgage fell to 0.5 point this week from 0.6 point last week. The fee for a 15-year loan was unchanged at 0.5 point.

Rates on adjustable five-year mortgages averaged 2.82 percent, up from 2.81 percent last week. The fee remained at 0.4 point.

KANSAS FOOTBALL

Tom Keegan tkeegan@ljworld.com

Kansas football tries to get off road to dubious record College football futility records prove beyond a reasonable doubt that there is no worse place for schools from the state of Kansas than the road.

In fact, three Kansas schools are responsible for four of the seven longest losing streaks in college football history, at least based on one list that can be found at sports-reference.com.

Wichita State lost 37 consecutive road games, a streak that stretched from the middle of the 1964 season to early in the 1971 campaign, the second-longest road skid in college football history.

Kansas State encountered road losing streaks spanning 34 (19944-50) and 30 (1985-91) games.

Kansas’ current slide officially has lasted 35 games, tied with UTEP (1974-80) for fourth-longest in history, because three losses to Missouri at Arrowhead Stadium, a neutral site, don’t count.

Wichita State dumped its football program after the 1986 season and, of course, Bill Snyder in two different stints has built big-time winners.

The Jayhawks, 20-point underdogs, need to find a way to end this endless streak Saturday in Memphis because the all-time college football roadkill record is drawing so close you can almost smell it.

Western State in Gunnison, Colo., which now plays out of the Div. II Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference, lost 44 road contests in a row from Oct. 2, 1926 through Nov. 7, 1936.

In order, this season’s Big 12 road foes for Kansas are Texas Tech, Baylor, Oklahoma, West Virginia and Kansas State. Kansas lost at those five schools two years ago by an average score of 54-14, coming closest in Lubbock with a 34-21 setback.

Losing Saturday would move KU into a third-place tie with Sewanee University, a founding member of the mighty SEC. So ashamed of its fruitless football program was the Tennessee school that it left the conference and now competes in Div. III. A loss in Memphis and then Lubbock would put Kansas in a tie for second with the Shockers. If the streak continues all the way to Waco and the Jayhawks lose to Baylor, they stand alone in second place. I fear that the crowd for the Oklahoma State game in Lawrence might be so small that head coach David Beaty will announce in the post-game media session that he will take over ticket sales.

It’s a heavy burden on Beaty and his young squad, which can’t be blamed for a streak that started when starting right tackle Hakeem Adeniji was in sixth grade and starting right guard Mesa Riobardy was

KANSAS RUNNING BACK KE’AUN KINNER (22) GETS AROUND THE LINE as he heads for the end zone and a touchdown during the Jayhawks’ victory over Rhode Island on Sept. 3 at Memorial Stadium.

Jayhawks seeking more run production

By Benton Smith basmith@ljworld.com

An easy, season-opening victory over Rhode Island might have masked a glaring issue for the Kansas football team’s offense.

The Jayhawks ran the ball

35 times for 171 yards and two touchdowns against an overmatched FCS opponent in their debut, but after KU averaged a meager 1.7 yards a carry in a home loss to Ohio, offensive line coach Zach Yenser went as far as referring to the team’s run-

blocking the “elephant in the room.”

Falling in a massive 250, first-half hole against the Bobcats certainly didn’t help the Jayhawks’ chances of establishing a ground attack.

But even when they only trailed by six in the first quar-

ter, the running game backfired. Ke’aun Kinner’s first carry of the game went for no gain, and on the very next snap, Ohio’s Chad Moore brought down Kinner for a one-yard loss and a safety.

A’s complete sweep of Royals Kansas City, Mo. (ap) — Stephen Vogt drove in five runs, Ryon Healy hit a mammoth three-run homer and the Oakland Athletics routed the Kansas City Royals, 14-5, on Thursday night.

The A’s continued to wreck the Royals’ diminishing playoff chances, sweeping a four-game road series at Kansas City for the first time in their history. The A’s outscored the Royals 4312, the largest Oakland run differential in a four-game series in franchise history.

Vogt had a two-run double in a five-run third, walked with the bases loaded in the fourth and hit a two-run homer in the sixth.

Lions head out of state for first time in history

By Bobby Nightengale bnightengale@ljworld.com

For the first time in the 125-year, tradition-rich history of Lawrence High’s football program, the Lions will travel across state lines for a game.

The Lions will go on the road to play Lee’s Summit (Mo.) West at 7 tonight.

It’s the first-ever Sunflower > KEEGAN, 2D League/Suburban Confer-

ence Showdown, a matchup pitting teams from Kansas and Missouri against each other.

Previously, the only time the Lions faced an out-ofstate school was Oct. 25, 1996, playing host to Bear Creek High from Lakewood, Colo.

Recruiting takes Self jet-setting

By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

The jet-setting continued for Kansas basketball coach Bill Self and his staff on Thursday. And it looks as if it will continue through the rest of the week.

After nearly going coast to coast — Las Vegas to New Jersey — earlier in the week, Self made the cross country trip worth it by sticking around the New England area to visit with a pair of Top 40 Class of 2017 guards.

“We’re trying to help this AL WEST cause as a team,” Peters said.

12 expansion, five conference

According to Matt Scott, of TheShiver.com, Self was set to visit point guard Tremont Waters and shooting guard Hamidou Diallo on Thursday in Connecticut.

Waters, ranked No. 36 overall by Rivals.com, is a 5-foot11, 160-pound, four-star point guard from Notre Dame Prep in West Haven, who impressed recruiting analysts this summer with his ability to add true point guard skills to his already polished scoring ability.

Waters, along with nearly a dozen others, is scheduled to visit Kansas for Late Night in the Phog on Oct. 1.

Diallo, from Putnam Science Academy, is a 6-4, 180-pound shooting guard, whom Scott said “might be the most explosive player in the class.” Not known as a terrific shooter, Diallo utilizes his size and explosiveness to get to the rim on offense and lock players up on defense.

Entering Thursday, Diallo had yet to set an official visit with Kansas.

Heading south After taking care of business in New England, Self and company are slated for a couple of key visits in the southeast today, both with Class of 2017 players.

According to Scott, KU will visit small forward Billy Preston at Oak Hill Academy in Virginia and follow that up with a trip to Orlando to check in on shooting guard Chaundee Brown.

Preston, 6-9, 220, ranked No. 8 in his class by Rivals. com, recently trimmed his list to five schools: Indiana, Kansas, Maryland, NC State and USC. Brown, meanwhile, is down to Kansas, Wake Forest and Florida and also is fresh off of an official visit to KU’s campus a couple of weeks ago.

The distant future Self’s recent travels, though primarily designed to check in with some of KU’s top targets in the 2017 class, also have included visits with players in the classes of 2018, 2019 and even 2020.

On Wednesday, Self watched 2019 point guard Grant Sherfield in Texas while also checking in with current 2017 commitment Marcus Garrett. Sherfield and Garrett both are planning unofficial visits to KU for Late Night.

KANSAS BASKETBALL

Late Night festivities set for 6:30 start

By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

The preseason college basketball spectacle that is Late Night in the Phog officially has a start time.

KU officials revealed Thursday that the 32nd annual Late Night event, scheduled for Oct. 1, will kick off at 6:30 p.m. at Allen Fieldhouse. Doors will open to KU students at 5 p.m. and to the general public at 5:30.

Late Night, which KU coach Bill Self predicted would be “jumping” when speaking to KU freshmen at traditions night back in

August, will officially get underway with a celebration known as The Phog Festival at 10 a.m. Oct. 1 on the lawn in front of Allen Fieldhouse.

Much like on football game days, the festival will have many activities for all fans to enjoy leading up to Late Night, including a Family Fun Zone, radio remotes, a mobile video board and a live DJ. The festival will also include food trucks, giveaways, interactive displays and much more throughout the day.

Because Late Night has become so popular in re-

cent years, Kansas Athletics announced it will take extra steps to ensure things run smoothly.

Those steps will include: n KU and Lawrence Public Safety personnel providing an increased presence. n Kansas Athletics being willing to open the Allen Fieldhouse entrances early if warranted by a large-enough crowd of fans waiting to enter. n Kansas Athletics increasing its communication with fans throughout the day, using social media, conventional media and on-site communication.

n As on game nights, KU students will enter through their customary separate entrance on the northeast side of Allen Fieldhouse. n Though all parking lots are free, fans are encouraged to park south of Allen Fieldhouse in lots 71, 90, 125 and 127 due to a concurrent on-campus event. Lower levels of the parking garage just north of Allen Fieldhouse will be reserved with the upper levels open to the public for a fee.

As is the tradition at Late Night, fans are encouraged to bring non-

KU volleyball to get Big 12 tuneup

By Tom Keegan tkeegan@ljworld.com

The Kansas volleyball squad, ranked No. 4 in the nation, undergoes its final weekend of testing its Big 12 readiness against quality nonconference competition on the campus of Purdue in West Lafayette, Ind. Kansas plays Xavier (11 a.m.) and Purdue (6:30

Football CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1D

Kinner finished the game averaging 3.2 yards a carry on five rushes — a significant decrease from his 9.9 average on seven runs the week before.

By the end of the defeat KU attempted just 15 carries for a puny total of 26 yards. Even so, Yenser, whose job duties include run-game coordinator, remains optimistic about the Jayhawks’ ability to rush successfully, as well as the offense’s run-blocking, as the team prepares for a Saturday road test at Memphis (11 a.m. kickoff, ESPNU).

“Obviously as an offensive line, you want to establish the line of scrimmage and be able to run the football,” Yenser said.

“And we’re gonna need to in order to win football games. It doesn’t matter what type of offense you run, whether you’re pro or whether you’re spread or whatever. You’ve gotta be able to run the football.

And that’s our job. Our job is to get first downs and touchdowns. I’m proud of our guys for what they’ve done in the pass protection, but we’ve gotta be better in the run game, and I think we will be.”

Two weeks into the season, Kansas running backs have combined for 37 carries and 147 yards (3.9

p.m.) today and Southeastern Louisiana at noon Saturday.

The Jayhawks then open Big 12 play Wednesday at home vs. Oklahoma at 6 p.m., followed by a trip to Austin to play Texas, ranked No. 2 in the nation, Saturday, Sept. 24, at 7 p.m.

“This is a great weekend to see Xavier and Purdue and transition

into Oklahoma and Texas, because obviously Oklahoma is playing at a high level and Texas is No. 2 in the country,” Kansas coach Ray Bechard said.

“Purdue will provide the same type of physicality that we’ll see in those teams, and Xavier, the speed that Oklahoma plays with, there is a lot of correlation there. So it’s a good weekend. Now

we need to go play well, see what happens.”

Purdue, which won at Stanford, is ranked No. 14 in the nation.

Bechard described the Boilermakers as “physical, athletic, extremely aggressive offensively.

Purdue’s got some extremely dynamic attackers, much like we’ll run into when we face a team like Texas.”

Well, I mean, first week we were pretty daggum good running the football. Second week, we weren’t very good.”

attack, but like Yenser he remained confident in the linemen up front.

“I feel like the running backs, those guys are getting a little more physical, as well, but I feel like we’ll be able to be successful just doing a little bit of different things, taking advantage of what we’re seeing on film from Memphis,” Cozart said. “So I feel like the running backs will be fine.”

Last season against the Tigers, Kinner ran for 113 yards and a touchdown on 16 carries. This year, Memphis has a new defensive coordinator, Chris Ball, formerly codefensive coordinator at Arizona State. Eight of the 11 first-string Memphis defenders started at least one game in 2015, and six of them started in five or more games.

Asked if, following KU’s unimpressive 15-carry, 26yard rushing outing versus Ohio, Yenser would get in Beaty’s ear in the hope of more run calls at Memphis, the O-line coach said the Jayhawks are happy to follow any game plan.

“If we need to run the ball 32 times to win a game we’re gonna do it,” Yenser said. “If we need to throw the football, we’re gonna do whatever we need to do. And, heck, I’m gonna encourage coach to run the football and take shots down the field. ”

“

— KU coach David Beaty

yards a rush). Of KU’s 14 plays of 20-or-more yards, only one came on a running play. Kinner broke a 20-yard run during the Week 1 Rhode Island romp.

Between senior Kinner (85 rushing yards), sophomore Taylor Martin (33), junior Denzell Evans (25) and true freshman Khalil Herbert (17), Kansas running backs have accounted for just more than 18 percent of the team’s 802 total yards.

However, head coach David Beaty isn’t prepared to say he is concerned with the overall lack of production.

“Well, I mean, first week we were pretty daggum good running the football. Second week, we weren’t very good,” Beaty admitted. “So I’m trying to figure out who we are right now, because I know we’re a lot better than what we showed Saturday in the run game. We’re probably somewhere in the middle, and we need to continue to work on improving that to be honest with you.”

In the first two games, KU started left tackle D’Andre Banks (6-foot-3, 305 pounds), left guard

Jayson Rhodes (6-4, 285), center Joe Gibson (6-3, 305), right guard Mesa Ribordy (6-4, 290) and right tackle Hakeem Adeniji (6-5, 265) on the offensive line. Yenser said he was proud of the unit’s response following the Ohio loss.

“They were embarrassed in the run game,” Yenser said. “And if they weren’t then you have a problem.”

The O-line coach told the players the deficiencies were his fault and that he planned to get back to some fundamentals this week during practice sessions as a result.

While KU’s offensive linemen aren’t all massive blockers, Yenser said his run-blocking philosophy is all about speed out of their stances.

“I don’t care if you’re 310 pounds or 285 pounds,” the assistant coach said.

“Technique and quickness out of your stance — how fast can you get to Point A. And then it just turns into leverage. There’s a bunch of dudes playing in the NFL at 295 pounds that are moving guys.”

Junior quarterback Montell Cozart said KU has to improve its rushing

After the doors have opened, the championship games of the 3-on-3 Tournament will be played inside Allen Fieldhouse. The tourney will be held all next week, with women’s and men’s teams vying for the title on the Fieldhouse floor. KU basketball coaches Bill Self and Brandon Schneider will present trophies to the winners during Late Night.

Once the festivities begin, Late Night in the Phog will feature music by the KU pep band, routines from KU’s cheer and dance teams, skits by both basketball teams, video highlights from KU’s award-winning Rock Chalk Video department, coach and player introductions, scrimmages by the KU men’s and women’s teams and more.

For the second year in a row, one female and one male will have the opportunity to win $10,000 from Self by making a half-court shot at Late Night.

Healy, who had three hits, homered in the third with Khris Davis and Yonder Alonso on base.

The ball traveled an estimated 480 feet, landing above the left-field fountains. Healy went 9 for 17 (.529) with two doubles, two home runs and seven RBIs in the series.

Joey Wendle had his first career four-hit game and scored three runs as the A’s banged out 16 hits.

Rookie right-hander Daniel Mengden (2-7), who was 0-4 with a 9.39 ERA in his previous seven starts, was the beneficiary of the offensive outburst. He held the Royals to three hits over seven scoreless innings to pick up the victory, striking out six with no walks.

Royals starter Edinson Volquez (10-11) faced 22 batters and nine scored in 3 1/3 innings.

FOOTBALL ROUNDUP TOP 25 COLLEGE Houston 40, Cincinnati 16 Cincinnati — Greg Ward Jr. returned from a one-game absence and ran for two fourth-quarter touchdowns to help No. 6 Houston — steadied by its fabulous defense — pull away to a 40-16 victory over Cincinnati on Thursday night.

The Cougars (3-0, 1-0 American Athletic) trailed 16-12 early in the fourth quarter before Ward and the defense took over.

Ward had the scoring runs to regain the lead, and the Cougars returned a pair of interceptions for touchdowns to close it out.

That’s when then-seniors Joel Spain and Andrew Keating took him under their wing and taught him the ropes of the varsity level. Sanders played quarterback at Lawrence High in his freshman year and was new to receiver.

Last year, Sanders had a more prominent starting role on both sides of the ball for the Firebirds, but he was still learning from quarterback/free safety Bryce Torneden, now a freshman defensive back at the University of Kansas.

“All of them developed me as a player and just told me never be satisfied with what I’m doing and always try to get better,” Sanders said. “I needed to wake up and know what I need to do to get better.”

The Lions (2-0) will have to adjust to playing a new school for the first time, but several of their own offseason changes have produced strong results in the first two weeks.

the weight room, offseason workouts and daily practices.

“There was kind of a point — a lot of kids go through it — where you think that, ‘I’m good where I’m at,’” Sanders said. “I realized there’s a lot of guys out there that are better than me and why not try to get to where they are.”

Pushed by his former teammates, Sanders is more comfortable on the field this season. He set single-game school records in Week One with 13 catches for 239 yards.

But even this past offseason didn’t foreshadow such a big start.

Last spring, Sanders planned on pinch-running for Free State’s baseball team and running track.

He took sixth at state in the 300-meter hurdles as a sophomore and seventh in the 110 hurdles.

On the first day of baseball practice, he dove for a ball and tore the ulnar

collateral ligament in his thumb, which required reconstruction surgery. It ended his spring of playing sports and left him with a sizable scar.

“Things happen for a reason,” Sanders said. “I feel like the injury, when I had to get surgery, that woke me up a lot because I saw that I was back behind everyone else and I need to catch up to everyone. I feel like that helped me during the summer in the weight room.”

Gradually progressing into a senior, Sanders wants to pass on his knowledge to his younger teammates, just like his former mentors did for him. He said sophomore receiver Keenan Garber has all of the tools with his speed to “hopefully be better than me.” “(Receivers) coach (Max) Cordova always pounded on me, ‘You need to be like Joel Spain!

You need to be like Joel Spain!’” Sanders said with

a laugh. “Even last year, he’d keep saying it. Now coach Cordova kind of turned it into telling the sophomores and juniors, ‘You need to be more like Zack.’ I like that a lot because I feel like I’m turning into a leader that coach Cordova wanted me to be.”

right guard Jesse Tunget said it feels like they’ve already taken about the same amount of reps as last year.

Wedd said one of things that sold him on the idea of platoons was watching two-way linemen senior Jake Unruh and graduated seniors Trey Georgie and Amani Bledsoe become tired late in games, despite playing in “unbelievable shape.”

“Ten years ago, if you ran 50 plays on offense, you were doing cartwheels and knowing that you probably won the game,” Wedd said. “Now, we’re in the range of 7080 plays a game. Last week we were 79 and we slowed down the last six minutes.”

For the success of the platoon in the first two weeks, look no further

than the defensive line.

Senior BJ Murry had a sack in each game, forcing a safety in Week One. Unruh recorded two sacks against Shawnee Mission North’s strong passing attack last week and he blocked a punt.

“I was always behind Amani and Trey so it’s way different than just coming in the third and fourth quarter. But now I play every down and people are depending on me,” Murray said. “It makes a difference. I’m not as tired anymore if I was playing on offense and defense.”

Looking ahead to Lee’s Summit West (2-2), the Lions said it was exciting to face an unfamiliar opponent and put a change into their normal routine of playing mostly Sunflower League teams.

“They are talented,” Wedd said of the Titans.

“Boy, they have a lot of speed and it’s going to be a huge test for us.”
