Highway repairs in jeopardy
Skating rink may change location —

To cut costs, city staff seeks permanent site
Budget would allot little for maintenance

Since 2013, the amount of money Kansas has swept out of the state highway fund each year to shore up the general fund has increased by several hundred million dollars.
Topeka — Highway construction contractors and some state lawmakers expressed alarm this week at new estimates from the Kansas Department of Transportation that show how Gov. Sam Brownback’s budget plan would affect routine maintenance and repair projects in the state’s 10-year transportation program known as T-Works. Kansas Secretary of Transportation Richard Carlson unveiled those numbers during a briefing before the Senate Ways and Means Committee on Tuesday. It showed that in the upcoming fiscal year that begins July 1, only $28 million would be spent next year to resurface 235 miles of roadway, and only $16 million

urely you all have started to have election withdrawal by now. The symptoms include a smile on your face and giddiness. Well, fear not: 2017 is going to have plenty of local elections. In fact, in some ways, it may have too many. As part of my series of conversations with local leaders, I met recently with new Douglas County Commissioner Michelle Derusseau. The big takeaway from our chat is that Derusseau

crisis center. “I don’t know yet,” Derusseau said when asked whether 2017 was the year the approximately $40 million jail and crisis center project should be put to voters. “It is going to be a tough year to do it. I can say that.” There are at least two factors that may make 2017 particularly challenging for the jail issue. The first is that there are already visible signs of opposition to expanding the jail.

It also includes the city of Topeka, the University of Kansas in Lawrence and Pittsburg State University. Jenkins, 53, started her political career in the Kansas House representing the 52nd District of southwest Topeka. She served one term there and was elected in 2000 to the Kansas Senate, where she spent two years before running for treasurer. Gov. Sam Brownback, who held the 2nd District seat for one term in 1995-1997 before he was elected to the U.S. Senate, posted a statement on

Twitter thanking Jenkins for her service, adding: “We look forward to two more years of service to Kansas in Congress.” Jenkins’ decision to bow out of politics in two years could set off a political chain reaction, setting up wide-open primaries up and down the ballot in 2018, said Kansas Republican Party executive director Clay Baker. “I think 2018 is going to be very interesting,” Barker said. “There was the rumor that she was going to run for governor. Now it’s clear she’s not running for governor, which means the primary will be wide open. And the primary for 2nd District will be wide open.” Barker and other Republicans said they were
LAWRENCE • STATE somewhat surprised by her announcement because many people had assumed she planned to run for governor in two years. “I did see her the other night at an event. She seemed very happy and content,” said Kansas House Speaker Ron Ryckman Jr., of Olathe. “She’s been a great public servant to Kansas and our nation. I don’t know what caused her decision, but whatever direction she goes, I definitely wish her the best.” The open congressional seat will likely attract Republicans who have been waiting to move up the political ladder. Although no one has made any announcement, names mentioned on the Republican side, either for governor or
Congress, have included Attorney General Derek Schmidt and Secretary of State Kris Kobach. And if either of those opt to run for another office, that would set up open primaries for those seats. In addition, two new U.S. House members from Kansas will be up for their first re-elections in 2018: 1st District Rep. Roger Marshall, who was elected for the first time in 2016; and whoever wins the upcoming April 11 special election in the 4th District of southcentral Kansas to fill the vacancy left by Rep.

The installation for the rink is costly because it requires the removal of part of the library’s sod lawn, construction of a wooden deck and the re-installation of new sod once the eight-week skating season is over, Hecker said. At a total of more than $9,000, the installation costs are about the same as staffing rink attendants for the season. Hecker said there are three possibilities for a

There are two groups actively working to convince leaders that a jail expansion shouldn’t be undertaken now, but rather alternative efforts to incarceration need to be further explored. If you are keeping track at home, they are the faithbased group Justice Matters and a separate group that is affiliated with the nonprofit Kansas Appleseed Project. Organized opposition before an election date has even been set is always a red flag, but certainly not insurmountable. Issue No. 2, though, is that by the time Douglas County commissioners conceivably could be prepared to put this on the ballot, Douglas County voters may already be tired of supporting tax increases for projects. That’s because the Lawrence school district is positioned to beat everybody to the punch in asking for a tax increase. As we have reported, the Lawrence school board has authorized a May 2 election for an $87 million school bond issue that likely would increase property taxes by about 2.4 mills. If the county decides to

more would be spent on other kinds of preservation projects. Meanwhile, more than half a billion dollars in general sales tax revenue would be swept out of the state’s highway fund in each of the next two years to shore up the state’s general fund. “If you take it to the nth degree, that’s approximately touching a piece of pavement once every 50 years,” said Bob Totten of the Kansas Contractors Association. “The whole point of the highway program was to address about 12 to 15 percent of the needs every 10 years.” According to charts that KDOT presented at the Ways and Means hearing, Kansas spent an average of $157 million a year resurfacing 1,436 miles of roadway during the first five years of the
said potential options are a new concrete surface at South Park and the existing tennis courts at Sports Pavilion Lawrence. “Things like that have potential, but honestly we haven’t really looked into great detail at all,” Hecker said. Attendance at the rink dropped substantially after its debut season in the winter of 2014-2015. The first season, about 8,500 people attended, according to the report. The second season, about 3,000 people attended, making the 2,000 attendees of the most recent season the lowest showing yet.
The synthetic-ice rink is made out of plastic pieces that fit together. There is a $3-per-skater fee to use the rink, which includes the requisite skate rental. The surface has drawn some complaints from people who are used to skating on real ice, which is slicker than the plastic. The rink itself cost the city $80,000. Though attendance has dropped, Hecker said that 2,000 people in a season is still good use and that the department thinks it’s still worth doing in the future. He said if the operational costs could be lowered, it would put the rink in a better situation.
“You hate to just scrap it, you know, because there was obviously a cost to purchase it and purchase the skates,” Hecker said. “... If we can make it work better operationally, then I think that’s a big thing.” The most recent season closed last week, and Hecker said different programming options for the rink would be looked at for next season. He said evaluation of other installation options is forthcoming. “We’ll probably start discussing it here in the next few months, just to see if there’s a better location that we can come up with,” he said.

ask voters to support a tax increase for the jail project, it won’t happen before that May 2 school election. So the county would be at least second in line, and that usually is not the best political position to be in. If voters approve $87 million in school funding, are they going to be eager to approve another tax increase in such short order? A wild card in all of this is that it is possible there might be yet another tax issue for voters to decide. The city has three sales taxes that will automatically expire unless voters in a citywide election agree to extend them. There is one sales tax that helps fund the city’s road and infrastructure repair program, and two taxes that provide the bulk of the funding for the city’s public transit system. The taxes are not set to expire until early 2019, but conventional thinking is that city officials will want to know well in advance of that date whether they can count on the sales tax funding for the future. City officials will start putting together the 2019 budget in about May 2018. That has caused some people to wonder whether the city would ask voters in late 2017 to extend the sales taxes, giving the city more
time to plan in case voters reject the sales taxes. I haven’t heard anything definitively from the city on what its plans are for a sales tax election, but we’ll start asking more questions about that soon. Regardless, whether it is this year or early next year, it seems likely Lawrence voters will be participating in a sales tax election. To summarize, that would be three big taxing decisions for voters to make in a short time period: $87 million in school bonds, $30 million to $40 million for jail and mental health improvements; and a decision on whether to renew sales taxes that total 0.55 percent. Derusseau, who took office in early January, said she’s not sure how voters would react to so many taxing issues in such a short time. Instead, most of her comments were focused on how she thinks many members of the public still need more convincing on the jail expansion. “I know we are going to need the time to make sure we educate voters on the need,” Derusseau said. Derusseau said there are unanswered questions about both the jail expansion and the construction of a mental health crisis intervention center. How that mental health facility
would be staffed and how it would operate are key questions. Some of the answers are still fluid. Case in point, if Lawrence Memorial Hospital decides to become more involved in mental health care, that could cause the crisis intervention center to look different. Derusseau said county officials are having discussions with LMH. “How the hospital could be involved could change everything,” Derusseau said. “We really need to look at everything. I think there is a lot of work to do to make sure the right message is out there.” Other takeaways from my conversation with Derusseau included: l On economic development, Derusseau said she does have concerns about local governments adopting a bunch of new policies that may make companies scratch Douglas County off their search list early in the process. “Getting businesses to come to your community is not like it was in the old days,” Derusseau said. “They start with such a large number of communities now. You have to get the site selectors here to visit. You don’t want to do something to get yourself eliminated early on. We have to figure out a way to get people here to see our

T-Works program, 2011 through 2015. KDOT officials weren’t immediately able to say when the last time was that Kansas spent so little on highway maintenance. They did say, however, that Kansas roads are still in generally good shape, and the routine maintenance and preservation projects should return to a more normal pace by 2019. “Roads on the Kansas system are among the best in the nation and they far exceed the agency’s performance targets,” KDOT spokesman Steve Swartz said. “KDOT leaders believe the agency will be able to continue to meet its performance targets for road conditions under the current budget proposals. Spending on preservation in 2019 is anticipated to increase to $245 million as current projects are paid off.” That, however, would still be far below the average of $366 million a year the state spent on all types
of preservation projects — resurfacing plus other maintenance — during the first five years of T-Works. Among the preservation projects being delayed is a resurfacing project for a 19-mile stretch of U.S. Highway 56 in Johnson and Douglas counties. That project, estimated at about $2.8 million, was originally scheduled to be let out for bid in December 2016. In addition to the reduced preservation projects, KDOT said it also planned to delay 10 modernization projects totaling $274 million, and 13 expansion projects totaling $252 million, that had been scheduled over the next two and a half years. None of those projects is in Douglas County. Senate Democratic Leader Anthony Hensley, of Topeka, who serves on the Ways and Means Committee, said he believes there were political considerations in deciding which projects to delay, noting that one of
the projects still on the schedule is an expansion project on U.S. Highway 69 in Crawford County. “Everybody knows that was done for political reasons to basically benefit (Sen.) Jake LaTurner’s re-election campaign down in southeast Kansas,” Hensley said. LaTurner, a Pittsburg Republican, was thought to be in a tight re-election campaign last year against Democrat Lynn Grant. But the race turned out not to be as close as Democrats had hoped, and LaTurner won a second term, 56-44 percent. LaTurner confirmed last year that he lobbied the Brownback administration not to delay or cancel that project because he considered it important to his district, adding that all lawmakers are allowed to lobby the governor for projects in their districts. But Hensley said he’s also concerned that delaying the preservation projects will put the state behind schedule for years
to come. “It’s going to take us a long time to get back to where we would have been had the 2010 transportation plan been fully implemented,” he said. “It’s going to take us a number of years to be able to adequately fund the transportation plan as it passed in the 2010 session.” The Kansas Contractors Association is part of a coalition known as Rise Up Kansas that has proposed, among other things, an 11 cent per gallon increase in motor fuel

taxes to pump more money into the highway fund. But Totten admitted this week that an 11 cent increase is unlikely to pass the Legislature. “It’s more realistic to see the Senate that’s talking about a 5 cent a gallon tax increase,” he said. “It doesn’t make enough money. We’d probably have to come up with some bonding. They’re not wanting to do that, but the hole is so gigantic for everybody. Roads are just part of it.”

In all instances, the slab would serve another use when the rink isn’t operating, such as a basketball court, volleyball court or a parking lot, Hecker said. If the library property is ruled out, Hecker said the possibilities are limited by the fact that the location for the rink would require public bathroom facilities and a heated structure to house the skate rental booth.

Why did KU police delay adding rape report to public record? By Sara Shepherd sshepherd@ljworld.com
University of Kansas officials, citing federal law, are standing by the decision to delay publicly releasing a police log entry for a rape reported in December at the apartment building where the men’s basketball team lives. Most incidents are added to
Officials, citing federal Clery Act, stand by decision KU’s daily crime log a day or two after they are reported; the rape was added to the log more than a week after it was reported to police. A Journal-World reporter searching past months of log activity discovered it and published an article about the
incident on Tuesday. The case remained under investigation Wednesday, and no arrests had been made, police said. Police have not released any information regarding a suspect. Deputy Chief James Anguiano of KU police said the deci-
sion to not immediately enter the McCarthy Hall incident on the university’s online crime log did not involve favoritism for athletes or a desire to shield from the public the fact that the KU men’s basketball dorm was the site of an alleged sexual
Bill would recognize dental therapists By Peter Hancock phancock@ljworld.com
Topeka — Health care advocates in Kansas are pushing a bill this year that they say would increase access to dental and oral health care, especially in rural and under-served areas of the state, but the Kansas Dental Association is fighting hard to stop it. The bill, which was formally introduced in the House on Wednesday, would allow midlevel practitioners known as dental therapists to be licensed and practice in Kansas, as long as they work under the supervision of a fully licensed dentist. “We see this as an opportunity to add a new kind of provider that is not unlike what happened several years ago with the medical community with (physician assistants) and nurse practitioners,” said Denise Cyzman, executive director of the Kansas Association for the Medically Underserved, a group that represents safety net clinics around the state. Cyzman noted that 83 percent of the counties in Kansas are designated as workforce shortage areas for dental care. The bill would authorize the Kansas Dental Board to license dental therapists who have taken a required set of training courses and have passed a licensing exam. It also outlines the scope of dental procedures they would be allowed to perform, including minor drilling and filling and some types of tooth extractions. They would not, however, be licensed for more complex procedures such as root canals, Cyzman said. It would also require that dental therapists work “under the direct or

general supervision of a Kansas licensed dentist pursuant to a written supervising agreement.” And the only dentists allowed to work with dental therapists would be those who practice in a safety net clinic for low-income patients, or those enrolled as a Medicaid provider. Direct supervision would require the therapist to work in the same office or facility as the dentist, while general supervision would only require the licensed dentist to be available when needed, Cyzman said. “We think that it also frees up the dentist to do some of the more complex procedures that they’re trained to do. That increases access across the board,” Cyzman said. The dental industry in Kansas, however, has for years opposed efforts to expand the scope of lower-level practitioners, including dental hygienists, and this year is no exception. “We’re opposed to dental therapists,” said Kevin Robertson, executive director of the Kansas Dental Association. “We don’t believe it’s appropriate for someone other
than a licensed dentist to provide surgical procedures to the public.” Robertson said KDA believes the best way to increase access in rural areas and for low-income people is to increase the reimbursement rates that Medicaid pays for dental care, rates that he said haven’t been raised for at least 15 years. “And then with the 4 percent cut, it’s just making it really tough to afford to do Medicaid,” he said, referring to the rate cut that Gov. Sam Brownback ordered as part of his allotment cut package to balance the budget last year. In his State of the State address Jan. 10, Brownback also called for establishing a dental school at the University of Kansas Medical Center in Kansas City. Currently, there is no dental school in Kansas. Most dentists who practice in Kansas are trained at dental schools either at the University of Missouri-Kansas City, Creighton University in Omaha, Neb., or the University of Oklahoma. Supporters of a KU dental school have said that a state-run dental school could establish outreach clinics in underserved areas. But neither the advocates for dental therapists nor the KDA is taking a position one way or the other on that idea. Cyzman said it would take a number of years before the first graduating class of a KU dental school could enter practice, while allowing the licensure of dental therapists would expand the workforce more quickly. And while there is also no training program for dental therapists in Kansas, Cyzman said universities and community

colleges that now train dental hygienists and dental assistants have expressed willingness to add a dental therapy program to their curriculum. Meanwhile, Richardson said that if the state has money available for such a project, the KDA would prefer to see it invested in raising Medicaid reimbursement rates. The bill is likely to be referred to the Health and Human Services Committee where it was introduced. Rep. John Wilson, DLawrence, who is the ranking Democrat on that committee, said he supports the bill and doesn’t think fully licensed dentists should be overly concerned. “I think it’s going to take all hands on deck to address oral health needs in Kansas,” Wilson said. “With this bill, it would be a dentist-led health team, so the dentist would determine what procedure they would let a particular dental therapist handle.” — Statehouse reporter Peter Hancock can be reached at 354-4222.

assault. Five male basketball players are named as witnesses in the rape report. “We’re here to do a job and get the facts of the case, and sometimes some cases take longer than others,” Anguiano said. “Anytime we get a call, we take each call seriously. It doesn’t matter if it’s high-profile.”

fter all the commotion Monday morning in downtown Lawrence, I thought this was a good opportunity to write about bomb squads. Monday morning, the Douglas County Courthouse and businesses in the 1100 block of Massachusetts Street were evacuated after a suspicious package was reported on the courthouse’s west steps. The package was, in fact, a box of magazines, but the Douglas County Sheriff’s Office, which has jurisdiction over the county courthouse, evacuated the buildings as a precaution. In the end, it took a bomb squad on loan from Olathe and a K9 unit from Shawnee to figure out what was in the box and to send out the all-clear. You may have put it together already, but neither the sheriff’s office nor the Lawrence Police Department has a bomb squad. In addition, both agencies tell me they do not plan to form such squads.

Report CONTINUED FROM PAGE 3A
Had the incident been made public at the time, it likely would have received extensive media coverage both regionally and nationally due to the fact the KU basketball team lives at the facility, and due to the number of allegations nationally involving student-athletes and sexual assault cases. KU officials are required to follow certain reporting procedures as part of a federal campus safety law. The federal Jeanne Clery Disclosure of Campus Security Policy and Campus Crime Statistics Act requires university police departments to maintain a written daily crime log, with incidents added within two business days of being reported to police — but there are exceptions to that rule. According to the law, institutions can withhold information from the log if it would jeopardize an ongoing criminal investigation or the safety of an individual, cause a suspect to flee or evade detection, or result in the destruction of evidence. At whatever point the “adverse effect” of concern is no longer likely to occur, the institution is required to then add the incident to the crime log, according to the Clery Act. Anguiano said since the McCarthy Hall rape report is still under investigation, he could not specify exactly why that particular case was temporarily withheld from the crime log. However, he reiterated the exceptions outlined in the Clery Act.
“There’s a handful of different reasons that Clery allows you to do that, and it’s done on a case-by-case basis,” he said. Anguiano said the McCarthy Hall case also did not meet the criteria to warrant an immediate campus alert. “We take the information at hand, and we see if there’s an immediate threat or a continuing threat to the community,” he said. In the McCarthy Hall case, Anguiano said, “there’s no ongoing threat.” lll
A 16-year-old girl was reportedly raped between 10 p.m. Dec. 17 and 5 a.m. Dec. 18 at McCarthy Hall, 1747 Naismith Drive, according to the publicly available portion of the police report, requested and obtained Tuesday by the JournalWorld. In addition to rape, the suspect also is accused of contributing to a child’s misconduct, furnishing alcohol to a minor and possession of drug paraphernalia, according to the report. Police have said the 16-year-old, who was not a KU student and not from this area, was visiting residents in the building. The police report indicated the suspect was known to the girl and that the suspect was believed to have been using alcohol and drugs. A runaway juvenile also was reported at McCarthy Hall the morning of Dec. 18. Police would not confirm whether the runaway and the reported rape victim are the same person. McCarthy Hall is an all-male on-campus apartment building operated by KU Student Housing. McCarthy is home to about 40 students; roughly half are
KU men’s basketball players and the other half are upperclassmen, nontraditional or transfer students. KU Athletics is cooperating with the investigation, Anguiano said. Five male basketball players are named as witnesses in the rape report, and a sixth player is named as a witness in the runaway report. Anguiano noted that being listed as a witness doesn’t necessarily mean someone saw a crime. Witnesses also might include people who overheard something days after a crime, were in the area at the time or saw something that might be related, Anguiano said. Police also interviewed the same two 19-year-old women in both the rape and the runaway cases, according to the police reports. lll
Anguiano said Wednesday that the rape reported at McCarthy Hall was added to the crime log on Dec. 27. The log entry was dated Dec. 17 and placed chrono-
Thursday, January 26, 2017
logically with other incidents reported and posted around that date. The log entry only indicates the crime was reported Dec. 17; it does not include the date police added it to the publicly visible log. Alison Kiss is executive director of the Clery Center, a nonprofit organization with the mission of creating safer college campuses. The Clery Center was founded in 1987 by Connie and Howard Clery following the April 1986 rape and murder of their 19-year-old daughter, Jeanne, in her Lehigh University dorm room in Pennsylvania. Kiss said universities can withhold incidents from their crime logs up to 60 days but that, again, there must be a reason for doing so. She said there’s no firm norm for posting sexual assault reports to crime logs compared with other incident reports. “It varies,” Kiss said. “I think it’s important that campuses evaluate on a case-by-case basis.” As for the format of daily
Life & Disability Insurance
crime logs required by the Clery Act, there’s flexibility for that, too, Kiss said. The law does not require logs to be online, she said, but it does require schools to make the crime log for the most recent 60-day period open to public inspection during normal business hours. Schools must provide older portions of the log upon request, within two business days. The KU Office of Public Safety uses the website CrimeReports.com to post its daily crime log online. Log entries are posted in chronological order based on the date incidents were reported to police. The online log goes back six months and is searchable by crime type. The Journal-World regularly checks the online log and publishes listed incidents in a KU Crime Blotter feature weekly when classes are in session, and usually every two weeks during breaks. The vast majority of crimes at KU are nonviolent — theft, vandalism and drug possession are com-

mon — and posted in a business day or two after being reported. Some in recent months have been posted later, including a sexual battery reported at Oliver Hall in late October, which was posted several days but less than a week later. Occasionally, the Journal-World searches past months for serious crimes that are not posted shortly after being reported. Members of the public can sign up for email alerts from CrimeReports.com, though such emails only include a tally and general categories of crimes newly added to the log, with no corresponding details. The Clery Act also requires schools to publish an annual tally of sex crimes reported on or near their campuses. Those reports are released each fall and include only tallies of crimes — with no narratives or specific locations — for the previous calendar year. According to KU’s most recent Clery report, there were 13 rapes reported at KU in 2015, with five of those in campus housing.

$15K degree not a bad idea Whatever you think of Gov. Sam Brownback’s fiscal policies, his call for an affordable college degree merits some consideration.
7A
Trump’s ‘running war’ is with truth This president lies. Granted, every president tells the occasional politically expedient untruth. But this guy is different. He lies constantly. He lies about relatively unimportant things. He lies when the truth can be easily verified.
G
ov. Sam Brownback’s plan for righting the state’s fiscal ship has been roundly criticized as little more than a short-term fix, but at least one of his ideas warrants a closer look: the $15,000 college degree. During his State of the State address to kick off the legislative session, Brownback challenged the state’s four-year colleges and universities to develop bachelor’s degree programs that cost no more than $15,000 total. Four years at the University of Kansas cost more than $45,500 at current tuition rates. The state’s least expensive university, Fort Hays State, offers a four-year degree plan for about $20,000. Meeting Brownback’s challenge would be difficult. Impossible, some say. “Fifteen thousand dollars is ridiculous, and I can’t say that strong enough,” Rep. Barbara Ballard, D-Lawrence, told The Associated Press. But it has been done, thanks to similar challenges by former Texas Gov. Rick Perry and by Florida Gov. Rick Scott. The Texas Affordable Bachelor’s Degree in organizational leadership is offered at Texas A&M University-Commerce and South Texas College. Students pay $750 per term for 18 terms of seven weeks each for a total of $13,500. Courses are a mixture of online and in-person instruction. In Florida, Scott challenged the state college system — made up primarily of community colleges — to develop a $10,000 bachelor’s degree. Thirteen of the colleges have signed on, and there are 75 degree programs available. Degree programs cover everything from nursing and education to information technology and biological sciences. The Kansas Board of Regents oversees the state’s 32 post-secondary public schools. Blake Flanders, Regents president and CEO, has said the board and Regents schools will try to meet Brownback’s challenge. Some see great irony in Brownback challenging schools to offer steeply discounted degrees after years of higher education cuts under his administration. That’s fair. But make no mistake, the cost of higher education has created frightening student debt levels at a time when an advanced degree is more important than ever to individual economic prosperity. In that environment, it’s critical that schools get innovative in finding ways to offer affordable degree programs. Such degrees won’t be for everyone, as evidenced by modest enrollment numbers in the Texas and Florida programs. But challenging Kansas colleges and universities to provide such options is a good idea for which Brownback deserves credit.

“
Ask yourself: If we cannot trust these people to tell us the truth on minor matters that can be easily checked, what confidence can we have that they will be square with us on substantive matters where the truth is not a Google search away?”
None of this comes as a surprise, of course. It’s been obvious since long before Donald Trump took the oath of office on Friday. Still, it is disheartening to realize that that oath, and the awesome responsibilities that come with it, have not changed him in the least. He still lies as prolifically as ever. For instance, in a speech on Saturday at the CIA, Trump blasted the news media for making it “sound like I had a feud with the intelligence community.” But it wasn’t the news media that sent out a tweet as recently as Jan. 11 likening the intelligence community to Nazi Germany. Did Wolf Blitzer have a gun to his head or something? No, that was Trump.
On Monday, in a meeting with congressional leaders, Trump renewed his claim that he would have won the popular vote in the November election except that massive fraud cost him millions of ballots. And that’s a lie, too. There is no — repeat: zip, zilch, zero — evidence to support that claim. On Saturday, Trump sent press secretary Sean Spicer storming into the White House briefing room to berate reporters for reporting — accurately — that the crowd at Trump’s inauguration was much smaller than that at President Obama’s first swearing-in in 2009. Pressed to explain that behavior Sunday on “Meet the Press,” senior adviser Kellyanne Conway said something bizarre — “Sean Spicer, our press secretary, gave alternative facts.” Whereupon, my cousin Kelly called me, sputtering in disbelief. Kelly, a career prosecutor, wanted to know if this means he is now free to put untruths into evidence if he dubs them “alternative facts.”
Meantime, my colleague, Miami Herald cartoonist Jim Morin, tweeted, “I would like to congratulate Hillary Clinton for winning the presidential election and enacting a progressive agenda for USA. #AlternativeFact.” Even Germany’s national railway joined in: “Good news — 120 percent of our trains are on time today. #alternativefacts” You’d think Team Trump would learn its lesson, but there was Spicer the very next day, echoing Conway’s — ahem — “reasoning.” “Sometimes,” he told reporters, “we can disagree with the facts.” In a word: Argh. Look, you can “disagree” all you want that two plus two equals four. You may offer to your heart’s content the “alternative fact” that two plus two equals rainbow sherbet. None of it changes the hard reality of what sum is produced when you add those numbers. Nor can you insist otherwise and expect anyone with half a brain to take you seriously. Ask yourself: If we cannot
trust these people to tell us the truth on minor matters that can be easily checked, what confidence can we have that they will be square with us on substantive matters where the truth is not a Google search away? What confidence can our allies and adversaries have? The answer is, none. That should scare you. As should this: Just a few days in, this may already be the least trustworthy regime in history. Yet last week, that regime was said to be thinking of evicting reporters from the White House. And Newt Gingrich just said press briefings should be open to non-journalists, i.e., a designated cheering section lobbing softball questions. Trump will tell you he has a bad relationship with reporters because they are “unfair.” He says he’s in a “running war” with news media. But that’s another lie. This guy’s “running war” is with the truth. — Leonard Pitts is a Pulitzer Prize-winning columnist for The Miami Herald.
Examine the real cost of protectionism Washington — When the president speaks of closed factories scattered like “tombstones” across America, has he noticed the shuttered stores in shopping centers, and entire malls reduced to rubble? He promises “protection” to prevent foreigners from “destroying” manufacturing jobs by exporting to America things that Americans want to import. Does he know that one American company might be “destroying” more American jobs than China is? And that this supposed destruction is beneficial? The company is Amazon (market capitalization: $388 billion), created by Jeff Bezos. He owns The Washington Post, which syndicates this column, but it is for revolutionizing retailing that he ranks in the Pantheon of American business. He belongs there with Richard Warren Sears, Alvah Curtis Roebuck, Aaron Montgomery Ward and Sam Walton, all of whom were constructively disruptive retailers, and were as important in the nation’s commercial history as were Henry Ford, Steve Jobs and Bill Gates. In 2016, online buying during the holiday season surged 19 percent over the year before, which is one factor explaining this: Macy’s, after announcing in August that it would close another 100 of its remaining 730 stores, now says it will shed 10,000 jobs. Sears, which is 13 decades old and still has 1,600 stores, has lost $9 billion in five years, has closed 500 stores and is closing another 150 (including some Kmarts).

“
Why should manufacturing jobs lost to foreign competition be privileged by protectionist policies in ways that jobs lost to domestic competition are not?”
Sears stores in American downtowns, and the Sears catalogue that put downtown goods within reach of rural America (3 million catalogues were distributed in 1907, when the nation’s population was 87 million), caused difficulties for older retailers. In the second half of the 20th century, Wal-Marts at the edge of towns caused difficulties for downtown retailers with pre-modern — meaning pre-Wal-Mart — global supply chains. Now Amazon is forcing Wal-Mart to master online retailing. Although e-commerce was just 8 percent of all 2016 retail sales, it came disproportionately at the expense of Sears, Macy’s and other “anchor tenants” that draw foot traffic from which other mall retailers benefit. When Amazon recently an-
nounced that it is going to create 100,000 warehousing and other jobs in the next 18 months, The New York Times reported that online retailing “has destroyed many times that number of positions at malls and shopping centers across America.” The Times quoted specialists’ calculations that traditional retailers have shed more than 200,000 employees since 2012, and that there are 1.2 million fewer retail workers than there would be if there were no online retailers. But Henry Ford, too, “destroyed” lots of jobs — those of blacksmiths, buggy makers, etc. — the holders of which moved on, and usually up. Writing at MarketWatch, Rex Nutting argues that as Amazon revolutionizes consumer behavior, it “is going to destroy more American jobs than China ever did.” If so, the “problem” is productivity. Nutting says “Amazon needs about half as many workers to sell $100 worth of merchandise as Macy’s does.” The Times reports that “the typical online retailer generates $1,267,000 in sales per employee versus $279,000 at bricks-and-mortar stores. All of which raises a question: Why should manufacturing jobs lost to foreign competition be privileged by protectionist policies in ways that jobs lost to domestic competition are not? When an Applebee’s or Olive Garden, powered by a national advertising budget, opens next to, and causes the closing of, Madge’s Diner, why does Madge
not merit protection? Or the Trade Adjustment Assistance that is available for workers, firms, farmers, even communities that can plausibly claim to have been otherwise injured by foreign competition or outsourcing of jobs? The reason is this: Domestic protection of Madge and millions of others unsettled by the constant churning of a dynamic domestic economy would mean slow economic growth — and rapid growth of government as it regulates consumers’ choices and their consequences. But protection from imports also means this. Reactionary liberalism has long held, and today’s faux conservatism agrees, that existing jobs should be protected by policies that reduce the economic dynamism that threatens those jobs. Such protection means a net decrease in jobs but an increase in the self-esteem of blinkered protectionists who see the jobs “saved” but not those which, as a result of lost dynamism, are lost or never created. Macy’s flagship Manhattan store was one reason Gimbels’ nearby flagship closed, after 76 years, in 1986. This, even though in 1945 Gimbels had been America’s first merchant to offer “a fantastic, atomic era, miraculous pen.” It was a ballpoint. Will the winner of the once-famous Macy’s versus Gimbels rivalry always be with us? Probably not, which is probably good. — George Will is a columnist for Washington Post Writers Group.

to finance energy-saving or waste-reducing projects. Started in 2011 with $300,000 in seed money, the revolving loan program allows county department heads to fund energy and other sustainability projects without dipping into their own annual capital budgets. Utility bill savings from completed projects are then put back into the program for future investments. Horn reported Wednesday that the $30,629 saved in 2016 was available for reinvestment. Commissioners also approved a energy management policy for county buildings that Horn presented. Under the policy, thermostats may not be set to heat buildings to more
than 70 degrees or cool buildings to less than 74 degrees. The use of personal space heaters would be banned, but high-efficiency radiant panel heaters that use no more than 200 watts will be allowed. The policy also recommends power management features be used on computers, printers and other equipment and that such equipment be turned off at the end of the workday. Plinsky said it was a challenge to heat and cool the historic Douglas County Courthouse, but the policy was flexible enough that employees would be able to be comfortable.

Trump clamps down on immigration He signs orders on Mexico wall, cuts funds for sanctuary cities Gregory Korte and David Jackson USA TODAY
WASHINGTON President Trump signed two immigration-related executive orders Wednesday, including efforts to build a wall on the Mexican border and to clamp down on “sanctuary cities” that shield migrants in the country illegally. Calling illegal immigration a “clear and present danger,”
Trump’s executive orders are the most detailed of the 12 presidential edicts he has issued in the first six days of his presidency. They call for the immediate building of a southern border wall, new public or private detention facilities, the hiring of 5,000 new border patrol agents and 10,000 immigration officers, and shutting off federal funds for cities that refuse to inform federal officials about undocumented immigrants in their custody. The order doesn’t explicitly say how the wall will be paid for, but

President Trump reads from one of the four executive orders he signed Wednesday.
Trump has required a report on all foreign aid given to Mexico, with the implicit threat to withhold that money. Mexico received $59 million in U.S. foreign aid in 2016. Trump has said the wall would cost $8 billion, though independent estimates are as much as three times higher. Trump signed the orders at a ceremony at the Department of Homeland Security headquarters in Washington, where he later rallied rank-and-file law enforcement officers, declaring: “A nation without borders is not a nation. Beginning today, the United States of America gets back control as it gets back its borders.” In an interview with ABC

Street, the Dow Jones industrial average eclipsed that milestone Wednesday for the first time in its 120-year history. The Dow jumped 155.80 points, or 0.8%, to close at a record high of 20,068.51, and it touched 20,082, during the day. The rally was broad, with the Standard & Poor’s 500 and the Nasdaq composite also closing at all-time highs. It took the Dow, a stock gauge made up of 30 of America’s bestknown blue-chip companies, just 64 calendar days to climb from 19,000 to 20,000, its second-fastest thousand-point sprint, according to S&P Dow Jones

Indices. The climb from 10,000 to 11,000 back in 1999 took 35 days. “It’s a nice mile marker,” says Chris Zaccarelli, chief investment officer at Cornerstone Financial Partners. The run to Dow 20,000 punctuates a massive 207% move from its bear-market low in March 2009, marked by a final dash of more than 1,700 points, or 9.5%, since Election Day, when Donald Trump’s surprise White House win and business-friendly policy proposals set a rally in motion. The Dow flirted with 20,000 since mid-December, causing great frustration among inves-
tors. Dow 20,000-watch hit a fever pitch on Jan. 6 when it got within 0.37 points of the barrier before dipping in eight of the next 10 sessions. Anyone who said he saw Dow 20,000 coming in early 2009 at the bottom of the worst market meltdown since the Great Depression probably would be telling a fib. On March 9, 2009, the day the Dow hit bottom, chatter about Dow 5,000 — not Dow 20,000 or even Dow 10,000 — was making the rounds. “Dow 5,000? There’s a Case for It,” a Wall Street Journal headline declared.

Careful how you say ‘Trump’ in Chinese Academics and monks ponder multiple meanings for moniker Hannah Gardner
Special for USA TODAY BEIJING What’s in a name? If it’s Donald Trump in Chinese, it could be as controversial as the president is back home. Trump’s official Chinese name is Te Lang Pu. That translates to “extraordinary, bright and popular” — the kind of name he might choose for himself. But it also can mean “unusual, loud and common,” surely the preference for his detractors in the United States. The reason for such differences is that translations of foreign names are based on Chinese characters, which are words, not letters. As a result, when you write a foreign name in Chinese, you add meaning whether you intend to or not. Because of the potential for offense, China has an official name translation department inside the state-run Xinhua News Agency. Those workers translate dozens of foreign names every day, and if they have a potentially sensitive one, they run it by the Foreign Ministry for approval. Li Xuejun, the head of the department, said it has been busy in recent weeks with naming the

new political leaders in Washington. Secretary of State nominee Rex Tillerson becomes Di Le Sen, which translates to “stem, coerce, dark.” President Trump adviser Kellyanne Conway is Kang Wei, meaning “healthy, leather hide.” And Ryan Zinke, Trump’s nominee for Interior secretary is Jin Ke, which means “ferry crossing, gram or saliva, digest.” Li said he tries to choose neutral names. His team has a “palette” of about 500 preselected Chinese characters to choose from — ones that are recognizable and inoffensive. Many are Chinese family or place names, such as the “Jin” in Zinke’s name, which is part of Tianjin, a northeastern city. Since Chinese characters have multiple meanings, it’s hard to avoid amusing coincidences. Li said the translator’s primary goal is to find a good phonetic
match, which sometimes limits their choice of characters. “It is quite different from Chinese parents giving their children names and also is different from foreigners taking Chinese names. ... It is serious academic work.” Li and his department have at times come under pressure to change their translations. Trump is a good example. The surname was first translated into Chinese in 1965 in Xinhua’s first dictionary of foreign names. But Hong Kong and Taiwan picked a different translation: Chuan Pu (pronounced Chwanpoo). Though it doesn’t begin with a T, it actually sounds closer to Trump because it is shorter and softer than Te Lang Pu. Daoist monks have even chimed in, saying it would be better for China-U.S. relations if his name were changed. “Te is an extreme character. We almost never use it in a Chinese name,” said Chen Yifeng, who interprets the meaning of patterns found in nature. Chen prefers Chuan Pu because “Chuan” means river — a water element to balance out Trump’s fiery nature. His colleague Chen Daoning agreed, “Te belongs to fire. People with Te in their name are usually very blunt.”

face-to-face meeting with a foreign leader after British Prime Minister Theresa May on Friday. However, the Associated Press reported late Wednesday that Peña Nieto is “considering” canceling that meeting, citing a senior official who was not authorized to discuss the matter publicly and spoke on condition of anonymity. In a nationally televised speech Wednesday night, Peña Nieto said he regrets and condemns the decision to build the wall, saying “I have said time and time again, Mexico will not pay for any wall.” Trump’s immigration plan largely relies on the enforcement of existing laws. If “recalcitrant countries” won’t take back criminal aliens deported from the United States, Trump’s order requires the State Department to stop issuing visas for citizens of that country. If cities and counties won’t turn over undocumented immigrants held in their jails, the administration would withhold funding. And while President Obama prioritized the deportation of immigrants convicted of serious crimes, Trump added to the priority list immigrants suspected but not charged in a crime, those who have “abused” any benefit programs, and those who
“otherwise pose a risk to public safety.” Wednesday’s moves are the first of what probably will be many executive actions to roll back Obama’s immigration policies, with more orders expected on refugees and status of people who immigrated to the United States as children. “His priority is first and foremost focused on people who pose a threat to people in our country, to criminals, frankly,” White House press secretary Sean Spicer said. But on childhood arrivals, he said, Trump is “continuing to make sure that his Cabinet-level team starts to organize and create a plan to move forward with respect to that issue.” Critics of Trump vowed to contest his new orders. Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel said he was waiting to read Trump’s order. But the mayor was not ready to flinch. “I want to be clear,” Emanuel said. “We’re going to stay a sanctuary city.” The mayor, however, did not respond to questions from reporters about how Chicago would manage to weather a slashing of federal funding.

image with other roles through the years, those characters forever touched TV audiences. Moore was a leggy brunette dancer from Brooklyn. Her first TV job came soon after she graduated high school in 1955, when she played Happy Hotpoint, a dancing elf in an appliance commercial. That same year, the aspiring actress, whose family had moved to Los Angeles, married Dick Meeker, 27, a cranberry-products salesman. For Moore, the nuptials were a ticket out of an unhappy household with a devoutly Catholic father, an alcoholic mother and a neighbor who sexually abused her when she was young. Meeker and Moore’s son, Richie, was born in 1956. In 1961, Moore’s career began to take off as she landed the role of Laura Petrie, the suburban New York wife of Van Dyke’s Rob, a TV writer. Faithful viewers can still hear Moore’s flustered, singsong voice saying, “Oh, Rob!” She was the perfect foil for Van Dyke and proved herself to be his comedic equal. The chemistry between them was perfect; America loved their believable and humorous portrayal of a married couple. Corrections & Clarifications USA TODAY is committed to accuracy.

The show was a departure for sitcoms: Moore’s trademark Capri pants and flats caused a stir in an era when other television housewives were wearing dresses and heels. The situational comedy was the brainchild of Carl Reiner, who guaranteed laughs with a cast that included Morey Amsterdam (Buddy) and Rose Marie (Sally), Rob’s colleagues. In an episode in 1965, Mary got her big toe stuck in the faucet of a hotel bathtub. “I was playing with a drip!” Laura said. Silly but lovable, simple stuff — that was The Dick Van Dyke Show. The show ended in 1966, and a year later, Moore played Julie Andrews’ pal in the 1920s musical Thoroughly Modern Millie. But it would be back on TV that Moore would find more fame. The Mary Tyler Moore Show premiered on CBS in September 1970 and enjoyed a seven-year run, earning Moore multiple Emmy awards. It was groundbreaking in that Mary Richards was a single woman who was not divorced or widowed but “determined to make it on her own.” Her sitcom family included her friends at the WJM newsroom. Ed Asner played gruff news director Lou Grant, Gavin MacLeod was unflappable as newswriter Murray Slaughter, Ted Knight was blowhard anchorman Ted Baxter, and Betty White played Sue Ann Nivens, the station’s flirty “Happy Homemaker.” Neighbors in Richards’ apartment building were Rhoda Morgenstern (Valerie Harper) and Phyllis Lindstrom (Cloris Leachman). The final episode brought closure to the characters when they were all fired (except for Ted). The final scene: a big group hug and Mary turning out the lights for the last time. “It has surprised me year after year from the last episode of The Mary Tyler Moore Show that it was revered and continues to be, but I think I’ve become used to it,” Moore told The Toronto Star in 1997. “I treasure the esteem with which the public holds Mary Richards — and Mary Tyler Moore, who helped create her. It’s a great feeling.” Moore never really found another hit show like that one, though Moore spawned several spinoffs, including Lou Grant, Rhoda and Phyllis. Her next success came in a very different role, in the 1980 movie Ordinary People. Director Robert Redford said he wanted to show the world the “dark side of Mary Tyler Moore,” and he did. She earned rave reviews for her performance as a cold mother coping with an unhappy family and earned a best-actress Oscar nomination. Then came TV movies, including Heartsounds (1984), Finnegan Begin Again (1985), Gore Vidal’s Lincoln (1988) and Stolen Babies, a 1993 project for which she won

another Emmy. Two attempts to recapture her sitcom glory on CBS (Mary in 1985 and Annie McGuire in 1988) were unsuccessful. Viewers seemed unwilling to accept her in a comedy as anything other than a facet of Laura Petrie or Mary Richards. Though onscreen she played the happy housewife and mother, in real life, her story was more soap opera than sitcom. After her early marriage to Meeker ended in 1961, she married NBC programmer Grant Tinker, and the two founded the successful MTM Enterprises in 1969. In that company, Tinker
produced many memorable TV series through the years, including Hill Street Blues, St. Elsewhere, The Bob Newhart Show and WKRP in Cincinnati. Moore and Tinker seemed quite the Hollywood TV couple and stayed together until splitting in 1981. (The company was sold in 1990). Later, Moore said Tinker was more a father figure than a husband. In 1983, Moore married Robert Levine, a cardiologist 18 years her junior. Battling what she called “a social-drinking habit,” Moore entered the Betty Ford clinic in 1984. She was diagnosed with diabetes early in her life, and she was a longtime vegetarian and animal rights activist. She had to cope with much tragedy in her personal life: the death of only son Richie at 24 in 1980 of a self-inflicted gunshot and the death of her 21-year-old sister in 1978 from an overdose of drugs and alcohol. In her 1995 autobiography, After All, Moore revealed that she and Levine helped her terminally ill brother, John, with an assistedsuicide attempt. John had a stash of painkillers, which Moore mashed into ice cream and spoon-fed to her brother while her husband operated a morphine pump. Her brother survived for three
months before succumbing to natural causes. In her autobiography, Moore wrote about having cosmetic surgery. “I like to think of (the surgery) as staying fit. And if it can keep my face up where it belongs, then I will go to a doctor and get his assistance,” she told Entertainment Weekly in 1995. Through the years, she used her fame to help the Juvenile Diabetes Foundation, and as a devoted animal lover, she served on the boards of several animal welfare organizations, including the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals. Her success on TV helped give her a platform for those causes. Although Moore sometimes seemed to wish she could separate herself from her two famous characters, she once said that when she found herself unable to sleep, she would sometimes watch old episodes of The Dick Van Dyke Show or The Mary Tyler Moore Show. “Without any trouble at all, I’ll lose myself in the episodes,” she said when she was in her 60s. “It’s been so long I can hardly remember what the plots were, so it’s almost fresh to me. “They’re always so wise. They have a lesson, small ones and happy ones. They give you hope that there’s a better future.”

AMERICA’S MARKETS What to watch
STORY STOCKS
Trump is Wall Street’s $2.2 trillion man Adam Shell @adamshell USA TODAY
The paper gains are piling up since the stock market rally began the day after Donald Trump was elected president. Not only is the Dow Jones industrial average sitting atop the 20,000 mountain for the first time ever, and both the large-company Standard & Poor’s 500 and tech-dominated Nasdaq sitting at fresh record highs, the real story is the $2.2 trillion in paper wealth created in the Wilshire 5000 Total Market Index since the close on Nov. 8. By that measure, Donald Trump is Wall Street’s “$2.2 trillion dollar man” -- as Trump’s “America First” economic agenda and quick out-of-the-box start towards getting stuff done that he
promised to backers has been instrumental in reawakening the so-called “animal spirits” of investors. The Wilshire 5000 is a good measure of the re-emerging bullishness in stocks following a few weeks of sideways action. The index is filled with more than 3,000 stocks. So its 8.6% gain since Election Day shows how broad the stock rally has been since Trump’s win. In the five trading days since Trump took office, the new commander in chief of the U.S. economy with the stroke of a pen has breathed new life into the energy sector by clearing the way for pipelines to get built. Trump’s moves on trade also align with his promises of working for fairer deals. The key, now, for markets? Can he push through the corporate tax reform and infrastructure spending plans that are the centerpiece of his proposals.

Shares of Bob Evans Farms rose nearly 21% on Wednesday after the operator of a 523-unit chain of family dining eateries in the nation’s heartland said it is splitting into two businesses. The Bob Evans Restaurants division will be taken private in a sale to a private equity firm. The parent company, however, will remain public as it expands its BEF
Foods division, which has a big stake in refrigerated side dishes sold in supermarkets, especially mashed potatoes and sausages. “The steps we took today are (part of ) the transformation of Bob Evans,” CEO Saed Mohseni said in an interview. The two businesses “were founded together, but now that they both have scale ... it’s time to separate them.” Mohseni said he plans to continue to head Bob Evans Restaurants, which were sold to an affiliate of Golden Gate Capital for $565 million and assumption

of up to $50 million in liabilities. As part of the deal, proceeds will be used to pay down debt and for a special dividend amounting to $150 million, or about $7.50 a
share, after the sale closes. The split was announced after the market close Tuesday. In trading Wednesday, shares rose 20.8% to close at $57.94, up $9.99, a 52week high. At the same time, BEF Foods will continue to operate under the Bob Evans Farms banner and is acquiring Pineland Farms Potato. This move adds another potato-processing facility to BEF and comes with a 900-acre potato farm. Mohseni says BEF has about half of the total market share for refrigerated mash potatoes in
supermarkets. BEF Foods is the fastest-growing part of Bob Evans and the most profitable, Mohseni says. BEF will be headed by its current president, Mike Townsley. But even though sit-down restaurants have come under pressure from upscale fast-food providers, Mohseni says he wanted to stay with the restaurant side of the business because of its potential. “There’s a lot more opportunity,” he says, especially with the popularity of the breakfast segment, which is seeing a revival from Baby Boomers.

Jane Fonda and record producer Richard Perry have split up after eight years together. Perry, 74, tells E! News their romance has “temporarily been put on the back burner” because of Fonda’s rededication to activism. He says the pair remain “extremely good friends” and he’s not ruling out the chance of a reconciliation. The 79-year-old Fonda joined marchers in Los Angeles last weekend as part of a worldwide women’s rights protest.

We feel we’ve lost someone dear. But TV icon’s smile endures, and we’re gonna make it, after all. Robert Bianco @BiancoRobert USA TODAY
Oh, Mary. Most of us, of course, never knew her personally. To us, she was Rob’s wife or Rhoda’s best friend, the woman who went from being the girl in the Capri pants with the high-wattage smile to the star of what just may be the best sitcom of all time. And yet she was more. There are some stars who seem to become part of our extended national family, whose deaths fill us with a sense of sorrow and regret that goes beyond what we would naturally, sensibly feel over the loss of an excellent actor. That’s the kind of star we had in Mary Tyler Moore, who died Wednesday at 80 after a long battle with diabetes. It doesn’t matter that her last, big TV hit left the air nearly 40 years ago: Moore was always our Mary. What was it about her? Her looks didn’t hurt: an unvarnished, ever-smiling beauty blended with far more sex appeal than you generally find in Hollywood’s girl-next-door types. Really, has any TV star ever blended wholesome and hot as well as Moore? Rob and Laura may have had separate beds on The Dick Van Dyke Show — this was, after all, the early ’60s — but it didn’t take much of an imagination to figure they were sometimes sharing the same one. Who could resist? Van Dyke made her a star, and then went one step better: It made her one of TV’s great actors. Viewers watching its opening episodes might well have concluded that all the laughs would come from Rob’s work as a comedy writer, relegating the home front to shots of Laura kissing Rob hello when she was happy and wailing “Oh, Rob” when she wasn’t. But nurtured along by her writers and costars, Moore turned Laura into a comic gem in her own right. It was a great role, but not a long-lasting one: Van Dyke left the air in 1966, after just five award-winning seasons. Moore moved into movies, wisely with Thoroughly Modern Millie, not so wisely with Change of Habit. Roughed up a bit, she returned to TV, and triumphed. Launched in 1970 on CBS,
MTM’s best quotes about comedy, and about life Bill Keveney and Maeve McDermott USATODAY
Mary Tyler Moore built a legendary career with her performances on The Dick Van Dyke Show and The Mary Tyler Moore Show, which blazed a trail for women in comedy while reflecting their changing roles in society. A sampling from her interviews with USA TODAY: On creating the iconic Mary Richards character for “The Mary Tyler Moore Show”:
A&E/PHOTOFEST
The Dick Van Dyke Show premiered in 1961 and made Moore a star. Through five seasons, she developed into a great actress. MTM introduced us to Mary Richards, a recently jilted single woman (not divorced, as originally planned — that was considered too risqué) launching a new life and career as a TV producer in Minneapolis. She was beautiful, she was smart, she was ambitious, and she took her career seriously, rather than seeing it as a prewedding way station. By making her a single woman in a new town, MTM did more than open dating possibilities; it launched a new paradigm. In most earlier sitcoms, “work” and “home” were two separate worlds; you had friends at work and family at home, and while they might mingle, there was always a clear distinction between them. Her show blurred those distinctions: Her friends, at work and in her apartment building, became her family. It set the template for every workplace-as-family sitcom that followed. In MTM, Moore played the sane lead, providing a stable center for an orbiting crew of crazier characters. Yet in Moore’s hands, “sane” never meant boring. Her Mary was funny enough to hold her own with the supporting charac-
ters, and yet “real” enough to carry the show’s more serious episodes, including a famous one that had her forced to face a dependence on pills. Few shows, before or after, have ever had more impact on their medium than MTM. It relaunched the career of Betty White, and made stars out of every member of the never-bettered supporting cast — Valerie Harper, Gavin MacLeod, Ted Knight, Ed Asner, Cloris Leachman and Georgia Engel — sending each into shows of their own, some spinoffs, some not. It forever drew a line between two styles of American sitcom, with the smart and literate on MTM’s side, and the dumb and silly (think Three’s Company, the later-’70s flag-bearer) on the other. The result was not just a popular comedy that set a then-record for Emmy wins (29), and not just a series that expanded our idea of what women on TV could do. It was a sitcom that was then, and may still be, the best America has ever produced. Some work is just so good, and some stars so special, they never lose their power to please. Thanks, Mary. And goodbye.
The writers “got to know me, and, on that, they went to work,” she said in 2002. “I was probably very close to Mary Richards” in personality. “And they never sacrificed character for the sake of a laugh.”
On viewers staying in on Saturdays to watch:
“A lot of women who didn’t have a date were thrilled, because they felt normal, that they were with Mary and Rhoda, who didn’t have dates, either.”
On the show’s enduring appeal:
“A lot of subjects that our writers took on were new. They hadn’t been seen 105 times. ... So, we came in at a very good time.”
On her autobiography, “After All,” which recounts both her acting triumphs and struggles, including diabetes, alcoholism and tragic family deaths:
“That is part of what writing the book is about. Showing other people that you can have faults and weaknesses and pain, and still go on,” she told USA TODAY in 1995. “I’ve gotten gratifying feedback from women like myself who denied their alcoholism for so long because they were so ladylike and all-American. In my admission, they were free to take a long look at themselves.”

Jayhawks focused on not letting one loss become two By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com
There are different looks and vibes that emanate from the Kansas basketball players and coaches in the postgame media sessions that follow losses than those that exist after wins. Equal parts anger, frustration and even shock are easy to spot and even easier to hear in their voices and the way they answer questions. Having experienced A loss, the wrong end of a KU like coach basketball outcome 31 times before during his has said five-year college career, before, it’s senior forward Landen not the worst Lucas operated with poise thing if you and confidence following Tuesday’s 85-69 loss learn from to No. 18 West Virginia in it.

But the veteran Lucas and freshman Josh Jackson each had a few ideas after the game. “The worst thing we can do is take this loss and not get better from it,” Lucas said. “So the young guys gotta understand that, come practice, we’ve gotta adjust.” Don’t mistake Lucas’ comments for finger pointing. He did not put Tuesday’s loss on KU’s underclassmen, nor did he believe anybody played the way Kansas needed them to play to win. Take senior point guard Frank Mason III, for instance. Even though Mason is the Big 12’s leading scorer and one of the most experienced players in college basketball, Lucas thought Mason, too, could benefit from a long, hard look at what went wrong Tuesday. “We have high expectations for him,” said Lucas of Mason, who shot 6-of-16 from the floor and finished with 15 points and 3 turnovers in 39 minutes. “We think he’s the best player in the country and we want him, in those situations, to be able to do other

KU football removes recruit Darreon Jackson from consideration By Benton Smith basmith@ljworld.com
Cross former Derby safety Darreon Jackson off of the Kansas football team’s list of incoming recruits. The safety from Coffeyville Community College announced Monday his intentions to transfer to KU and join the program, but according to an official in the athletics department, Jackson is no longer a part of the football team’s Class of 2017. “David Beaty has informed us that Darreon Jackson is not among the prospects that the football staff is recruiting,” associate athletics director Jim Marchiony told the Journal-World Wednesday afternoon, confirming a report from The Kansas City Star. Prior to a standout season at the junior college level, Jackson enrolled at Boise State after graduating from Derby High and took a redshirt season in 2015. According to a report from the Idaho Statesman, Jackson’s time in Boise included a one-semester suspension from the university, due to his involvement in a Title IX investigation of a sexual assault case. Initially, the report from July of 2016 stated, Jackson received a year-long suspension from the school, but he appealed that and had it reduced to a semester. The investigation focused on three Boise State football players, and the other two involved were expelled.

FSHS senior Sky Carey caps Firebirds’ victory over the Lions in City Showdown By Chris Duderstadt cduderstadt@ljworld.com
Free State senior Sky Carey was not feeling 100 percent going into Wednesday’s City Showdown wrestling dual against Lawrence High, but he was not going to let anything get in the way of him taking the mat one last time in front of the Firebirds’ home crowd. Carey rounded out his senior night dual with a second-period pin of Kevin Nichols to cap off the Firebirds’ 60-9 victory over Lions in the 285-pound match. “It was really exciting for me because for the last week, I’ve been dealing with a really bad mucus infection and it causes me to have asthma,” Carey said. “I was really proud of myself to be able to finish the whole match even though I wasn’t completely there.” Although the Firebirds earned a sizable victory over the Lions, Carey wasn’t the only Free State wres-
tler who really had to grind it out in order to come out on top. The closest match of the night also involved one of Free State’s three seniors, as Ben Hill went up against Lawrence High 152-pound Stanley Holder III. Hill outlasted Holder in double overtime to win by a 3-2 decision. “I just think that the conditioning that my coaches put me through really worked and set in, and that was really what made the factor for me to win,” Hill, who lost to Holder last season, said. “Just going hard in the (practice) room and conditioning harder than any other team out there is really what made the difference for me at least.” Hill was the first of Free State’s three seniors to wrestle. Joining Hill and Carey in being honored before the City Showdown for senior night was 220-pounder Nick Eddis. Eddis was one of six Firebirds to win by fall, as he pinned
Lawrence High’s Billy Phiavilayvong in the second period. “Being the City Showdown and just kind of the atmosphere, it’s always a much more stressful night. You want to prepare because you don’t want to lose in front of the whole city,” Eddis said. “We prepared 10 times as hard during the week. To come out and get the pin and everybody else do their job, it’s just showing everybody how we come together as a team.” Along with the three Free State seniors winning, Garrett Bradley, Isaiah Jacobs, Charlie Bermel and Devin Beers helped highlight the night with pins for the Firebirds. Tate Steele, Elijah Jacobs and Joey Eddis all won by decision for Free State, as the Firebirds won their 20th consecutive dual. The Firebirds have not lost a dual since falling to Olathe East in a double dual to begin the 2014-15 season.

Quartlebaum, Miller lift LHS past Olathe East By Shane Jackson sjackson@ljworld.com
Lawrence High sophomore Trey Quartlebaum can be very animated on the court, particularly when he misses shots. After his 3-point attempt from the left wing rattled around the rim, Quartlebaum trotted back to the defensive end and clapped his hands in frustration. Fortunately for Quartlebaum and his boys basketball team, his misfire in the second quarter was the only shot of his that didn’t fall. Quartlebaum nailed all but one of his seven shot attempts to lead LHS past Olathe East, 67-50, Wednesday, in a makeup
game from earlier this month. Quartlebaum and senior Austin Miller each netted a team-high 16 points — finishing a combined 11-of-16 — at Olathe East. “I do (get frustrated) when I miss my shots,” Quartlebaum said. “Especially when I’m wide open. I expect to make them because I work hard at it. So when I miss, it’s kind of frustrating. I just focus more on my shot.” The victory was much needed for Lawrence (9-3, No. 8 in 6A) after going 1-2 during last week’s Topeka Invitational, including a 7670 loss to Topeka High to end the tournament, which was squandered away after a lackluster third-quarter
performance. For a brief moment, it looked as if the third quarter might just come back to haunt the Lions yet again. The Hawks floored out to a 12-4 run to open the second half. As a result, Lawrence watched its four-point advantage at the intermission turn into 35-31 deficit in a matter of minutes. “This was much needed,” Lawrence coach Mike Lewis. “We needed a game where we could get out and feel good at the end. The timing was good and attempt to get a little bit of momentum back and then dig in and get ready for February.” With 4:15 to go in the third period, Quartlebaum
got the offense rolling with a pull-up jumper to trim the deficit to two. His second bucket of the evening sparked a 15-0 run by the Lions to close out the third quarter. Jackson Mallory, Clarence King and Anthony Selden were all responsible for the barrage of buckets over the four-plus minutes of domination by the visitors. They were not done there. Quartlebaum netted the first basket of the final quarter with a 3-pointer. After Olathe East ended the drought on the next possession, Quartlebaum scored the team’s next two

By Paul Newberry AP Sports Writer
Flowery Branch, Ga. (ap) — His timing is impeccable. A lot of guys slog through an entire career without coming close to a Super Bowl ring. Joe Vellano is going for a matching set. And who is Joe Vellano? Maybe one of the most fortunate players in the NFL. A 300-pound defensive lineman, Vellano wasn’t drafted out of college, and he’s spent much of his pro career either as a backup or the totally thankless role of practice-squad player. But there he was, in just his second season, popping up like Forrest Gump on a championship-winning team at New England. Even got a ring to prove it. Now, after bouncing around the last couple of years and barely playing at all, Vellano is heading to the Super Bowl again, this time with the Atlanta Falcons. To face the Patriots, no less. “There’s a lot that goes into getting to this point in the season,” Vellano said Wednesday before heading out to the practice field as a full-fledged member of the Falcons, a promotion he earned just over a week ago. “But it’s more about the group that you’re with, the sacrifices they’ve put out all year and the effort, the work that this whole organization has really done. So we’re ready to go and we’re going to be really excited.” Unlike his first trip to the big game, chances are he’ll be in uniform for this one, having been bumped up to the active roster just before the NFC championship game . “I remember having a conversation with him about six weeks ago, ‘Joe, I don’t know if your time is going to come this year, but I do know that you’re ready. Keep putting the work in because when the time does come, you want to stay ready,’” Falcons coach Dan Quinn said. The 28-year-old Vellano knows how blessed he is to have an opportunity at a pair of championships when so many players — many of them much

“It’s pretty awesome because Free State wrestling kind of used to be not much at all. The coaches just push us to our absolute limit,” Hill said. “I think that really pays off, and I think that’s why we’re winning all these duals. We all just work hard and push each other.” Free State coach Mike Gillman deflected a lot of the credit for the winning streak to his three seniors. “These kids have been with me for four years.

Wilson, Gee win for Lawrence High The Firebirds had a commanding 42-0 lead before Lawrence High’s Santino Gee put an end to the shutout in the 170-pound match against Gage Foster. Gee won by an 11-3 major decision. One of the people in the gym that could understand the dif-
ficult time that Foster was having was Gee’s practice partner, Tucker Wilson. “Santino is weird to wrestle. He doesn’t wrestle like a conventional wrestler,” Wilson said. “He just wrestles funky. It’s weird.” Wilson followed up Gee’s victory with one of his own. The Lawrence High 182-pounder won by tech fall over Elijah Denmark, 17-2, in the second period. “I watched this kid’s film from an earlier tournament that we were at together, and he hit the same exact thing,” Wilson said. “So I already knew off the bat what he was going to hit, and I already knew what I was going to do.” Lawrence High coach Pat
Naughton was hoping that the Lions would be able to notch a few more match victories to go along with the ones from Gee and Wilson, but he felt like the dual was a good experience for his squad — especially his younger kids at the lower weights. Naughton was also quick to credit the effort from the Firebirds. “Free State really wrestled their butts off really, and they came prepared — all the way through the JV lineup to the varsity lineup,” Naughton said. “My hat is off to them. That No. 8 (in Class 6A) is not just for show. They should be able to do some damage if they can get their guys through their regional.”

KU women fall just short at OSU J-W Staff Report
Final score
Junior guard Jessica Washington caught fire in the second half and fell just short of shooting the Kansas women’s basketball team to its first Big 12 victory and Oklahoma State prevailed, 74-70, Wednesday night in GallagherIba Arena in Stillwater. Washington scored 23 of her game-high 26 points in the second half, leading Kansas back from a deficit that grew as large as 18 points late in the first half. The Jayhawks (6-14, 0-9 in the Big 12) drew even with the Cowgirls (13-6, 3-5) three times in the second half but never took the lead. Washington’s final points came when her 3-pointer pulled KU within 71-70 with 25.8 seconds remaining. Mandy Coleman hit a pair of free throws at the other end and Washington took a pair of 3-pointers in a threeshot possession for KU to tie to tie it, but both of her long shots came up just short. Coleman made 1 of 2 free throws with 9.2 seconds left to provide the final margin. “I thought Jess got two good looks down there and I don’t fault either of those shots as well as she played offensively in the second half,” Kansas secondyear coach Brandon Schneider said. “The second half was our best offensive performance in Big 12 play.”
Find the final box score for Wednesday’s Kansas vs. Oklahoma State game on the scoreboard on page 4C.
The Cowgirls used their superior size to dominate the boards, 45-28, and draw fouls. OSU made 27 of 31 free throws, Kansas 11 of 13. The Jayhawks stormed back with quickness by stealing possessions. They forced OSU into 24 turnovers and committed just 12. The Cowgirls led at the half, 34-21. “It was tough in the first half without having Jessica,” Schneider said. “She gets two quick fouls and so much of our offense goes through her; 23 in the second half is a pretty good indicator of how important she is. Boy, it’s a tough league, tough league.” Washington made 10 of 20 field goals, 6 of 12 3-pointers and did not attempt a free throw. McKenzie Calvert added 15 points and Kylee Kopatich 10 for the Jayhawks. Karli Wheeler (22 points), Kaylee Jensen (19 points, 13 rebounds) and Coleman (19 points) led the way for Oklahoma State. The teams meet again Feb. 8 in Allen Fieldhouse. Kansas returns home Saturday for an 11 a.m. tipoff against Texas Tech.

LHS, FSHS gearing up for mid-season tourneys By Bobby Nightengale bnightengale@ljworld.com
When Lawrence High’s girls basketball team took third place at its midseason tournament last year, it kick-started wins in six of its next eight games. That showed the biggest positives from tournament week and what it can do to help a team for the remainder of the year. The Lions are hoping for a similar boost when they compete in the Glacier’s Edge tournament in Emporia over the next three days. They will open against Topeka High (4-5) at 5:30 tonight. It’s a rematch from the season opener for both teams, which the Lions won, 56-44. Lawrence will face Emporia (7-2) or Shawnee Mission North (3-7) on Friday. On the other half
of the bracket are ranked teams Maize (9-2) and Derby (6-3). “If that was our springboard last year, hopefully you’ll see a similar jump where we get more consistent effort and a more consistent intensity level,” Lawrence coach Jeff Dickson said. The Lions (7-2) haven’t played in the last week. It allowed them to take a program-wide trip to the College Basketball Experience in Kansas City, Mo. Then when they were on the court, the Lions worked on fixing up their defense, which allowed an average of 51 points in losses to highly-ranked Sunflower League opponents Leavenworth and Olathe South. “We really needed to play better teams and judge where we are and
what we need to work on,” LHS senior guard Skylar Drum said. The only negative for the Lions is they are playing teams that they’ve seen plenty of times throughout the past few years, and, of course, the long bus rides to Emporia. “I feel like other than moving locations, we’re playing the same team every year,” Dickson said. “That part is what it is. It would be nice at times to play some different people. But it’s a loaded tournament. It’s going to be really, really tough so we’ll see how we do.” Free State will open against Wichita Northwest (4-6) at 8:15 p.m. today in the Firebird Winter Classic. The winner will play four-time defending Class 6A state champion Wichita South (10-0,

things to help the team out. I know he knows he can learn from this game and he knows that if this happens in the tournament, we’ve gotta find a different way to win the game.” Asked where Kansas needed to improve most, the wise-beyond-hisyears Jackson delivered an immediate answer. “Definitely our onball defense, rebounding, boxing out. Those are probably the biggest things,” he said. “And just staying together through tough times out there.” While this team and its seven-man rotation have proven to be close from the beginning, things only figure to get tougher from here. On Saturday, the Jayhawks travel to No.

KANSAS FORWARD LANDEN LUCAS shows his frustration as he and the Jayhawks’ bench watch the final minute against West Virginia Tuesday at WVU Coliseum. KU lost to WVU, 85-69. 4 Kentucky, where they will face a UK team coming off of a similarly frustrating conference road loss at Tennessee. After that, it’s back home for a showdown with Baylor, a top-10 team now tied with Kansas atop the Big
12 Conference standings in the loss column. The Jayhawks know that if they want the joy and smiles to return to their postgame interviews, they’re going to have to play a lot better and a lot tougher than
ranked No. 1) or Junction City (2-7) on Friday. Along with Wichita South, which is on a 41game winning streak, the Firebird Winter Classic bracket includes Kansas City (Kan.) Schlagle (90) and Topeka Seaman (6-4). Unlike Lawrence, the Firebirds (6-3) have an opportunity to play three home games. Today’s game will only be their third home contest of the season and first time playing at FSHS since Jan. 3. “It’s a two-edged sword if you ask the girls,” FSHS coach Ted Juneau said. “I think they feel like, ‘Why don’t we get to go anywhere?’ As a coach, you’re saying, ‘I like it here. Sleep in your own bed. Have your same routine.’ But for me, I think it’s good.” they did at West Virginia to make that happen. “We just need to be more disciplined, because sometimes we just lose control, take quick shots, argue with the referees. We just need to be more focused on offense and defense,” said junior Svi Mykhailiuk, adding that the chance to take on an elite team like Kentucky has fallen at the perfect time for the Jayhawks. “It means a lot, because everyone’s saying don’t let one loss (become) two. We just need to regroup, forget about this loss and get ready for Kentucky.” Added freshman Mitch Lightfoot: “I feel like we can dwell on (the WVU loss) for a couple hours, and then we’ve gotta realize that we’ve gotta change it, we’ve gotta fix it. We’ve got a big game coming up, so we’ve gotta be ready for that game.”

Lightfoot’s 8 minutes vs. WVU a positive sign SCOREBOARD Tale of E the Tait ight minutes is not even enough time to get from one side of Lawrence to the other, but for Kansas freshman Mitch Lightfoot, it proved to be the continuation of a long journey. Enjoying his most court time since playing a career-high 14 minutes in a December win over UMKC, the freshman forward who has become KU’s selLightfoot dom-used eighth man played five important minutes at the end of the first half during Tuesday’s 85-69 loss at West Virginia and held his own. Within seconds of checking into the game, Lightfoot picked up a blocked shot and an offensive rebound while helping keep Kansas above water with senior Landen Lucas and sopho-

And when I’m out there I’m gonna give it everything I’ve got for us to win — rebounding, defending, whatever he needs.” Like any young player, Lightfoot would love to play more and be a bigger factor for his team.

I’m just gonna try to do whatever and I believe him. He’s
I can when I’m off the court or on the court so when I go in I’m ready.” Lightfoot was far from discouraged following KU’s loss to the Mountaineers on Tuesday night. Sure, he would’ve preferred a different outcome, but he did not project a vibe of self-pity or overwhelming frustration. That’s a testament, mostly, to the faith he has in KU’s upperclassmen, but also speaks volumes about his development and maturity. “We’ve gotta be tougher down the stretch and we’ve gotta come together as a team ...
