Kansas Republicans condemn Trump but stand by him By Peter Hancock phancock@ljworld.com
Trump
Topeka — Kansas Republicans running for seats in the U.S. House had little to say Monday about supporting Donald Trump after U.S. Speaker of the House Paul Ryan told his caucus that he would no longer defend

or campaign for the GOP presidential candidate. Second District Rep. Lynn Jenkins, whose district includes Lawrence, did not respond to telephone and email requests for comment Monday, although she was quoted by CBS News over the weekend condemning taped remarks by Trump from
2005 in which he boasted of, among other things, being able to grope women’s genitals without their permission because he is famous. Over the weekend, more than two dozen elected Republican officials pulled their support for Trump, according to published reports, and some even called

for him to withdraw from the presidential race. The flurry of reaction came after the Washington Post on Friday published the video, in which Trump boasted of his sexual conquests and of having committed acts that many have

Changes to Lawrence’s policies for economic development incentives are moving forward after more than a year of review by advisory boards. At their work session today, city commissioners will review potential changes that would limit the use of incentives, as well as hear inCITY put from county leaders and COMMISSION city staff. Incentives were a major topic in the most recent election, and Commissioner Leslie Soden said public dissatisfaction was widespread. “A lot of people were really unhappy with how incentives were being used and wanted to see that very clear public benefit,” Soden said.

Work to recruit, retain teachers of color to continue By Joanna Hlavacek jhlavacek@ljworld.com
The Lawrence school district has made progress over the last three school years in recruiting, hiring and retaining more staff of color, Anna Stubblefield, superintendent of education support, told the school board during its Monday meeting. From the 2014-2015 school year to the 2016-2017 school year, the district experienced a 25 percent increase in the number of people of color working in Lawrence public schools. However, a report present- SCHOOLS ed to the school board that evening by Stubblefield and Danica Moore, a teacher on special assignment for equity, revealed that teachers of color are still few and far between in classrooms, where their > TEACHERS, 6A

Mike Pompeo, of Wichita, issued a similar statement, calling Trump’s remarks “horrible, offensive and indefensible.” But Pompeo’s spokesman, Sean Robinson, said the congressman was not withdrawing his Pompeo support for Trump.

Regretfully, this race is not about shared values, but rather shared concerns.” Gov. Sam Brownback issued a statement Saturday condemning Trump’s remarks, but Marshall not withdrawing support from him. During a press conference in August, he too cited Supreme Court nominations as his reason for preferring Trump over Clinton. “I know who Hillary Clinton will appoint to the Supreme Court, and she’ll move it left,” Brownback Brownback said in August. “I don’t think there’s any question about that, and so the elections are about choices. Donald Trump was not my first choice.” U.S. Sen. Jerry Moran called Trump’s remarks “disgusting, discouraging and damaging,” but his campaign spokeswoman did not respond when asked whether he supports Trump for president.

Affordable housing board approves proposals for 2 projects By Rochelle Valverde rvalverde@ljworld.com
The Affordable Housing Advisory Board voted unanimously to recommend proposals to include low-cost units in two development projects — one downtown and the other in East Lawrence. Both projects are mixed-use residential developments that are seeking economic incentives from the city. The downtown project, called Vermont Place, would set aside 1 of its 12 condominiums for low-cost housing. Board members said that it was an important first step. “This may only be one small apartment, but it is one apartment for someone who otherwise may not be able to afford it,” Nancy Thellman, who is also
a county commissioner, told the board at its meeting Monday. The proposed downtown project would include a mix of condos and office space at 815 Vermont St. The project’s developer, former City Commissioner Bob Schumm, is proposing that 1 of the 12 condos be designated as an affordable housing unit that would be offered for sale through the Lawrence Tenants to Homeowners Program. That one-bedroom condo would be sold for about $95,000 — the fair market value of the property is estimated at about $125,000 — and designed as an affordable housing unit in perpetuity. Schumm told the board that after he’d spoken to those with Tenants to Homeowners about how the program worked, he
was excited to move forward with the proposal. “I am excited to be the front line on this, kind of like the first to do it,” Schumm said. “I had to think long and hard about it (and) the implications and what it might mean.” The proposed East Lawrence project, located at 826 Pennsylvania St., would include apartments and a restaurant and brewery. The project’s developer, Adam Williams, is proposing that 2 of the 14 apartments be designated for affordable housing units that would have the cost of utilities included in the monthly rent. The apartments would both be onebedroom and rent for about $840 per month initially — market value of the unit is about $1,000, not including utilities — and be
set aside as an affordable housing unit for 30 years. Both projects are seeking two forms of incentives: Neighborhood Revitalization Act and Industrial Revenue Bonds. Schumm is seeking 10 years’ worth of tax rebates under the NRA. The first five years would include an 85 percent tax rebate on the new tax value added to the property as a result of the project. In the final five years, the tax rebate would decrease to 50 percent. Schumm is also requesting Industrial Revenue Bonds for a sales tax exemption on construction materials. Williams has indicated to city staff that the project will require an NRA tax rebate at a percentage greater than 50 percent and an IRB for a sales tax exemption
on construction materials, according to a city memo. Following the board’s recommendation, both projects will be referred to city staff for costbenefit and gap analysis and then sent to the Public Incentives Review Committee for review and recommendation. The City Commission has public hearings Nov. 1 on both incentive requests. The board is in the process of drafting an affordable housing provision to the city’s economic incentives policy, which is in the process of being rewritten. The City Commission is set to begin discussion of a new incentives policy at its meeting today. — City Hall reporter Rochelle Valverde can be reached at 832-6314.

Many Kansas lawmakers able to benefit from business tax cuts Lawrence man in jail Wichita (ap) — A tax exemption enabling business owners to pay no state tax on business income is a boon to many Kansas lawmakers. Nearly 70 percent of lawmakers or their spouses own a business or property that allows them to benefit from the exemption, according to an analysis from The Wichita Eagle. To determine whether lawmakers qualified, The Eagle reviewed the statements of substantial interest for all 165 lawmakers, another 50 legislative candidates and all six state executive officers. The Eagle also checked the secretary of state’s business database and conducted numerous interviews with lawmakers to determine how businesses were organized and whether they qualified for the exemption. The actual tax returns are not public. The analysis found
that those with the potential to take advantage of the law include 35 of 40 state senators and 79 of 125 state representatives. Gov. Sam Brownback, who championed the 2012 law, also stands to benefit, along with the lieutenant governor, attorney general, secretary of state and insurance commissioner. The law exempts the owners of limited liability companies, S-corporations, limited partnerships, family farms and sole proprietorships from paying state income tax on their nonwage business income. The law also extends to other sources of passthrough income, such as rents, royalties and trusts. The tax exemption has come under increasing scrutiny as the state has struggled with budget shortfalls in recent years. Since the tax cuts went into effect, the state
Analysis found that those with the potential to take advantage of Kansas’ state business income tax exemption include 35 of 40 state senators and 79 of 125 state representatives. Gov. Sam Brownback, who championed the 2012 law, also stands to benefit, along with the lieutenant governor, attorney general, secretary of state and insurance commissioner. has cut its budget multiple times and increased the sales tax in 2015. Attempts in the Legislature to roll back the exemption fell short of passage the past two years after the governor promised to veto the bills. Brownback wouldn’t discuss his family’s taxes when asked at the Capitol last month. But his spokeswoman, Eileen Hawley, said it is a benefit for the state to have business owners involved in decisions about tax policy as members of the Legislature. “They understand the real implications of tax
policy for their fellow citizens and we welcome their expertise as business people and policy makers,” she said. But readers who asked The Eagle to look into the lawmakers’ business holdings said having so many lawmakers potentially benefiting from the law presented a troubling conflict of interest. “It certainly raises questions about whose interests they’re representing: their own personal interests or the public,” said Steve Kimball, a 72-year-old retired teacher from Belle Plaine. “That raises an eyebrow.”
after being injured in shooting Saturday
By Conrad Swanson cswanson@ljworld.com
Details surrounding a Saturday afternoon shooting remain sparse, but police say the Lawrence man who was injured in the shooting is now in jail. Around 4:45 p.m. Saturday, Lawrence Police Sgt. Mark Unruh said, a person was injured in a shooting in the 2500 block of West Sixth Street. On Monday, Lawrence Police Department spokeswoman Kim Murphree said the person who was injured had been arrested and booked into the Douglas County Jail. An incident number assigned to the shooting in Lawrence police activity logs matches the incident number assigned to the Saturday night arrest of Jeffery Lomant Calvin, 48,
in the jail’s booking logs. Calvin was arrested shortly after 9 p.m. Saturday on suspicion of felony aggravated battery, the logs indicate. Calvin also lives in an apartment in the 2500 block of West Sixth Street, the logs say. Twenty-two police officers responded to the shooting Saturday, activity logs say. Murphree said the incident arose from an instance of domestic violence. Police have passed on their reports to the Douglas County District Attorney’s Office, which will review the information and decide on possible charges, Murphree said. — Public safety reporter Conrad Swanson can be reached at 832-7284.

Hot spending pace continues in city
Lawrence PD seeing no recent T racial profiling complaints By Conrad Swanson cswanson@ljworld.com
No racial profiling complaints have been submitted against the Lawrence Police Department recently, police said Monday at a citizen review board meeting. The Citizens’ Advisory Board for Fair and Impartial Policing meets once every other month at Lawrence City Hall, 6 E. Sixth St., to touch base with representatives from the Lawrence Police Department. At each m e e t i n g , McKinley the board receives any incoming racial profiling complaints and any use-offorce reports, which are submitted when officers deploy their Tasers. Lawrence Police Capt. Trent McKinley told the board Monday night no new racial profiling complaints have been submitted since the board’s last meeting in June. When a complaint is submitted, either to the police department or through the Kansas
Attorney General’s Office, it is reviewed by the department’s internal Office of Professional Accountability. Afterwards, the internal investigation’s findings are passed along to the board for further review. At the June meeting, the board learned of two complaints filed against the department, McKinley said. The first was submitted in April and after an internal investigation within the department, it was determined to be unfounded. The second complaint was submitted in June through the Kansas Attorney General’s Office. That complaint remains under investigation, he said. McKinley said he did not have a clear timeline for when the Attorney General’s Office would finish their investigation. Available information regarding the complaint is limited, he said. Since the June meeting, only one Lawrence police officer deployed a Taser against someone who was resisting arrest, McKinley said. However, as of Monday the incident was still under investigation by the department and was

Police: No updates on homicide By Conrad Swanson cswanson@ljworld.com
Police had no updates on Monday regarding the death of a 42-year-old Lawrence man. The night of Sept. 16, police found Lenny Dwayne Morrison dead in the 400 block of Ohio Street, according to a news release from Lawrence Police Capt. Anthony Brixius.
On Sept. 23, Lawrence Police Sgt. Amy Rhoads said the incident remained under investigation, and on Monday department spokeswoman Kim Murphree said no updates were available. Alongside Morrison, police found a significantly injured woman, Brixius said. She was treated for her injuries at Lawrence Memorial Hospital and released early the next morning.

Corn disease, weather affect crop yields in Kansas Hutchinson (ap) — A corn disease that is new to the heartland is infecting Kansas crops and may be contributing to this year’s decline in yield. The U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service confirmed the presence of bacterial leaf streak in a swath of land from Pratt County to Edwards County in late August, according to The Hutchinson News. Justin Gatz, a Prestonarea farmer and crop consultant, said the disease is probably a factor in this year’s lower yield,
but weather also had an impact. “It might be one of those deals we see it this year and we won’t see it again — just because of the weather conditions we had this year,” said Gatz, who added that because the disease is bacterial, fungicide won’t work to kill it. Edwards County farmer David Wood said other crops are doing well, but his corn yield potential has fallen by 40 to 60 bushels an acre compared with last year. The federal department began a survey of
cornfields across the region after the disease was discovered in samples submitted to the University of NebraskaLincoln in 2014, Kansas State University said in a statement. The disease is thought to have occurred on corn in South Africa, but it has been more widely associated with gumming disease of sugarcane, according to the statement. It is unknown how it entered the U.S. The disease has been found in about a dozen states, including Nebraska, Colorado and Oklahoma.

Lead removal Decontaminating and repurposing a room in the Community Building is a good investment.
I
t’s unfortunate but the city of Lawrence is right to seek proposals to clean possible lead contamination in the former indoor gun range in the Lawrence Community Building. The 1,400 square-foot space has housed the gun range for more than a half century. As weapons were fired there, traces of lead from bullets built up. Testing has shown lead levels inside the range are in some spots 17,000 times greater than what is considered safe by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development. The Douglas County Rifle and Pistol Club leased the space from the city and operated the gun range until February, when city leaders realized the location violated the federal Gun Free School Zones Act, enacted in 1990, because of the building’s proximity to St. John School. Since then, the room in the basement of the Community Building has been locked. The city subsequently tested the area for lead contamination. The results of those tests showed that each of the four samples taken from the room — and one from the public stairway leading down to it — had excessive levels of lead contamination. According to HUD guidelines, lead levels above 40 micrograms per square foot are hazardous, and the five samples taken from the former gun range showed levels from 400 to 681,000 micrograms per square foot. Even low levels of lead are toxic if ingested. Lead is especially harmful for infants and children; small levels of lead contamination 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 reversed. “The door is locked and nobody’s going in until we get it cleaned, so I think we’re safe and should be doing what we’re supposed to be doing,” said Ernie Shaw, interim director of the Lawrence Parks and Recreation Department, which maintains and operates the Community Building. Shaw expects cleanup of the building to cost thousands of unbudgeted dollars. After the space has been properly cleaned of contaminants, he sees the potential for the space to be used in a variety of ways such as an archery range, indoor golf range or spin room for stationary bikes. Cleaning the Lawrence Community Building basement and identifying a longterm use for the space is worth the investment.

Trump’s vileness should cure GOP “Freedom’s just another word for nothin’ left to lose.” — “Me and Bobby McGee”
Washington — What did Donald Trump have left to lose Sunday night? His dignity? Please. His campaign’s theme? His Cleveland convention was a mini-Nuremberg rally for Republicans whose three-word recipe for making America great again was the shriek “Lock her up!” This presaged his Banana Republican vow to imprison his opponent.
George Will

“
His sexual loutishness is a sufficient reason for defeating him, but it is far down a long list of sufficient reasons.” The St. Louis festival of snarls was preceded by the release of a tape that merely provided redundant evidence of what Trump is like when he is being his boisterous self. Nevertheless, the tape sent various Republicans, who until then had discovered nothing to disqualify Trump from the presidency, into paroxysms of theatrical, tactical and synthetic dismay. Again, the tape revealed nothing about this arresteddevelopment adolescent that today’s righteously recoiling Republicans either did not already know or had no excuse for not knowing. Before the tape reminded the pathologically forgetful of Trump’s feral appetites and deranged sense of entitlement, the staid Economist magazine, holding the subject of Trump at arm’s-length like a soiled sock, reminded readers of this: “When Mr. Trump divorced the first of his three wives, Ivana, he let the New York tabloids know that one reason for the separation was that her breast implants felt all wrong.”
His sexual loutishness is a sufficient reason for defeating him, but it is far down a long list of sufficient reasons. But if it — rather than, say, his enthusiasm for torture even “if it doesn’t work,” or his ignorance of the nuclear triad — is required to prompt some Republicans to have second thoughts about him, so be it. For example, Sen. Richard Burr, a North Carolinian seeking a third term, represents a kind of Republican judiciousness regarding Trump. Having heard the tape and seen Trump’s “apology” (Trump said, essentially: My naughty locker room banter is better than Bill Clinton’s behavior), Burr solemnly said: “I am going to watch his level of contrition over the next few days to determine my level of support.” North Carolinians will watch with bated breath as Burr, measuring with a moral micrometer, carefully calibrates how to adjust his support to Trump’s unfolding repentance. Burr, who is chairman of the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence, has not received this nugget of intelligence: Contrition is not in Trump’s repertoire. Why should it be? His appetites, like his factoids, are self-legitimizing.
Trump is a marvelously efficient acid bath, stripping away his supporters’ surfaces, exposing their skeletal essences. Consider Mike Pence, a favorite of what Republicans devoutly praise as America’s “faith community.” Some of its representatives, their crucifixes glittering in the television lights, are still earnestly explaining the urgency of giving to Trump, who agreed that his daughter is “a piece of (expletive),” the task of improving America’s coarsened culture. Because Pence looks relatively presidential when standing next to Trump — talk about defining adequacy down — some Republicans want Trump to slink away, allowing Pence to float to the top of the ticket and represent Republicanism resurrected. This idea ignores a pertinent point: Pence is standing next to Trump. He salivated for the privilege of being Trump’s poodle, and he expresses his canine devotion in rhetorical treacle about “this good man.” What would a bad man look like to pastor Pence? Still, some journalists, who seem to have no interests beyond their obsession with presidential politics and who illustrate Kipling’s
principle (“What should they know of England who only England know?”), are so eager to get started on 2020 that they are anointing Pence the GOP’s front-runner. Perhaps Republicans will indeed embrace a man who embraced a presidential candidate whose supposed “locker room banter” merely echoed sexual boasts he published in a book. Today, however, Trump should stay atop the ticket, for four reasons. First, he will give the nation the pleasure of seeing him join the one cohort, of the many cohorts he disdains, that he most despises — “losers.” Second, by continuing to campaign in the spirit of St. Louis, he can remind the nation of the useful axiom that there is no such thing as rock bottom. Third, by persevering through Nov. 8, he can simplify the GOP’s quadrennial exercise of writing its post-campaign autopsy, which this year can be published Nov. 9 in one sentence: “Perhaps it is imprudent to nominate a venomous charlatan.” Fourth, Trump is the GOP’s chemotherapy, a nauseating but, if carried through to completion, perhaps a curative experience. — George Will is a columnist for Washington Post Writers Group.
Want to talk about Bill Clinton? OK, let’s do that By Heidi Stevens Chicago Tribune
Fine, let’s talk about Bill Clinton. Since the first time I typed the word “Hillary” next to the word “Clinton” in a column, my inbox and Twitter feed have been filled with queries as to why I’m not writing about her husband’s White House exploits. I would quote a few of the missives, but they’re never printable. When I answer — and occasionally I do — I say something along the lines of, “Because it’s not 1998, and because Bill isn’t running for president.” Both are true, but they’re not enough. So here goes: I’m furious with Bill Clinton, if you want to know the truth. I’m furious that his late-’90s affair with Monica Lewinsky, which already sucked up close to $40 million and an inordinate amount of our attention, is the first thing some people think of when they see his wife — an ardent champion of women and children’s rights since the ‘80s, a two-term U.S. senator, a secretary of state and the first woman to be nominated for president by one of the two major parties. I’m furious that his infidelity and reputation for womanizing have given cover for people trying to explain away Donald Trump’s highly offensive, dangerous talk of forcing himself on women. I’m furious that Trump himself had Bill Clinton’s name at
the ready when he released his first response to the “Access Hollywood” tape Friday. I’m furious, as a feminist, that I find myself wondering how to explain Clinton’s behavior — behavior I abhor — because I like his wife and I want her to be our next president. In some ways, their marriage is theirs to work through. But, let’s be honest, it’s also not. We have a pretty detailed account of what happened with Lewinsky, thanks to Ken Starr and that $40 million. But we’ll likely never know exactly what happened with the other women who’ve accused Bill Clinton of harassing them and worse. Juanita Broaddrick signed an affadavit calling her earlier sexual assault allegation against Bill Clinton “untrue.” But she later recanted that affidavit. As for whether Hillary Clinton threatened Broaddrick, I have yet to see compelling evidence that happened. As Slate columnist Michelle Goldberg wrote Sunday: “Even after Broaddrick went public with the rape charges, she initially denied that anyone tried to silence her. ‘Did Bill Clinton or anyone near him ever threaten you, try to intimidate you, do anything to keep you silent?’ Dateline’s Lisa Myers asked her in 1999. ‘No,’ Broaddrick replied.” A few months later, Goldberg wrote, Broaddrick told the Drudge Report that Hillary Clinton had approached Broaddrick at a fundraiser and “caught me and took my hand
and said ‘I am so happy to meet you. I want you to know that we appreciate everything you do for Bill.’” “Broaddrick interpreted this as a threat,” Goldberg wrote, “but it sounds like the kind of thing a candidate’s wife at a political event would say to all his supporters. Even in her rendering of Hillary’s words, there is nothing outwardly sinister in them.” Broaddrick, as you know, appeared alongside Trump on Facebook Live Sunday night, along with Kathleen Willey, Paula Jones and Kathy Shelton — women who’ve all accused Bill Clinton of inappropriate sexual behavior. And that makes me the most furious of all. Because Trump — who has a long, well-documented history of harassing women, cheating on his wives and now, as we know, forcing himself on women — somehow convinced these four women that he was their safe space. And that makes my skin crawl. What Trump said on that “Access Hollywood” bus was not, as he labeled it, “locker room talk.” It was the entitled musings of a predator. If he had been talking about forcing himself on children — grabbing their private parts, forcibly kissing them — we would be filled with rage. If he had been talking about forcing himself on men — taking them shopping and then making his move — we would be filled with rage.
Women’s bodies are entitled to every bit as much protection from unwanted advances. Pretending otherwise isn’t normal. It’s not how guys talk — not healthy guys, anyway. That Trump was able to distract a sizable number of Americans from sitting with that reality — the reality of a presidential candidate saying he can “grab them by the (genitals)” — by invoking Bill Clinton’s past is tragic. Yes, it’s tragic because it’s not 1998 and because Bill Clinton’s not running for president. But it’s also tragic because it highlights how adept we are at discarding women who don’t fit the narrative we’re weaving. And how adept we are at happily exploiting them when they do. I like to think the country has evolved a tiny bit since the ‘80s and ‘90s, when Bill Clinton’s accusers came forward. Women outnumber men in college now — doctoral programs too. Our first lady for the last eight years graduated cum laude from Princeton University and earned her law degree from Harvard. Strong, feminist voices like Roxane Gay, Lindy West, Jessica Valenti and Rebecca Traister champion women and push back against rape culture. Social media has democratized our culture, forever changing whose stories get told. We all have microphones now. In Sunday’s New York Times, Richard Perez-Pena talked to men about Trump’s recorded comments about women. Mi-
chael Kimmel, a sociology professor at Stony Brook University, had this to say: “This frat house stuff, Army stuff, you might hear athletes and entertainers, these highly entitled people, talk like this, but most guys age out of it. The relationships they develop with real, live women mitigate against it.” Maybe the same can be true of a nation. Maybe we can age out of it. Maybe our relationship with real, live women — women who are finally gaining the opportunity to fully participate in policymaking, philanthropy, corporate leadership, law, media and every other public realm — can mitigate future transgressions against women. A female president, I believe, would help usher in that progress, and Hillary Clinton is highly qualified to be that president. Regardless of her husband’s past.

It is also proposed the county provide $806,000 for the upgrades to the Douglas County Senior Services section of the building with the city providing $1.713 million, plus bond costs and interest.

Survey: Eudora facilities widely used; problems limit key upgrades By Elvyn Jones ejones@ljworld.com
Pedestrian trails are the most popular of Eudora Parks and Recreation’s facilities and the ones city residents would be most willing to invest in for future upgrades, according to survey results shared Monday with the Eudora City Commission. City commissioners were briefed by Vic Burks, of Shafer, Kline and Warren, and consultant Dick Hortona on a survey the firm conducted on the city’s parks and recreation facilities. Of the 2,043 surveys mailed to city residents this summer, 510 responded by returning a filled-out survey or completing one online, Horton said. With that participation level, survey results were gauged to be accurate at plus or minus 4.3 percent at the 95 percent level of confidence. The study found 76 percent of Eudora residents have visited one of the city’s parks or recreation facilities in the last year and that same amount found them in good or excellent condition, Horton said. In addition, 46 percent of residents responding to the survey said

white counterparts outnumber them 965 to 70 districtwide. “Some of it is just luck — people apply in Lawrence — and a lot of it is very strategic,” Stubblefield said of the staff gains over the last three school years. Part of the district’s strategy moving forward, she said, is providing support to the district’s classified staff of color in the hopes that some may pursue their teaching licenses, ultimately joining the ranks of an increasingly diverse teaching corps (i.e., “certified” staff) in Lawrence. “Classified” refers to anyone working in the schools without a teaching license, and could range from custodians and food-service workers to paraeducators and IT professionals. The majority of the people of color employed by the district fall under this umbrella; districtwide, there are more than twice as many classified employees of color as there are teachers of color. Although Stubblefield and Moore would like to see more teachers of color in classrooms — it’s important, they note, for all students to see themselves represented in their educators — there’s also work to be done in making sure all staff feel
they or a family member had participated in a Eudora Parks and Recreation program in the last year. The survey found the parks and recreation improvement with the most support for funding was additional development of the city’s pedestrian and trail system. Fifty-three percent of respondents were very supportive of those improvements and 25 percent somewhat supportive. The second-most popular investment was in regards to park system upgrades, with 42 percent very supportive and 33 percent somewhat supportive. With the popularity of pedestrian trails and citizens’ willingness to fund them, one of the recommendations from the survey is that the city build more looped trails in its parks and at schools in partnership with the Eudora school district, Burks said. “You know people love those looped trails in existing parks,” he said. “Looped trails around parks and school grounds are a good idea. We suggest you develop a trail planning document to identify where opportunities might be. I know
you are worn out on planning, but it’s important.” The survey also evaluated existing city parks and recreation facilities. Horton said that effort, which included consultation with architects, found the existing community center was not structurally capable of supporting some of the improvements proposed for the facility, such as a suspended walking track. He added that, realistically, an indoor pool, which ranked third among the projects respondents would be willing to fund, could not be added at the current community center. With those limitations, one of the recommendations Horton and Burks shared was that the city contract a feasibility study on the construction of a new community center. That would not only develop the cost of building the center, but also its annual maintenance and operational costs, which would impact citizen support for building a new facility, Horton said. Another existing facility with limitations regarding its expansion was the municipal pool. Burks said because of the neighboring community center, there
was not room to expand the pool. However, there were a series of enhancements, such as additional slides and a lazy river, that could be made to the facility. Another recommendation was the city commit to replacing the existing ball fields near the old Nottingham Elementary School because much of the easternmost field is in the Kansas Highway 10 right-of-way, which limits improvements that can be made. Finally, Horton and Burks recommended the city update its parks and recreation master plan, in part because of the information gleaned from the survey. In other business, commissioners discussed their vision for the Great Kaw Adventure Race and what the city’s involvement in the event should be. It was agreed the second race, held Sept. 24, was a great success and significantly larger than the first “pilot” event last year. However, commissioners indicated they would like the event’s committee to take over much of the planning.
included and empowered. Many on the classified side “don’t have the same opportunities as certified staff to participate in equity work at the building level,” Moore said, adding that scheduling differences, for example, often mean classified staffers aren’t able to attend the same meetings as their certified peers. “Because of that, they don’t have the space to process and diffuse some of those things they experience in the workplace and give their input,” she said. Most equity teams across the district’s schools tend to have “one or two staff of color on them,” and they’re typically not classified employees. Many more count no staff of color at all in their membership, Moore said. A districtwide support group for staff of color, which launched about three years ago, has been a “powerful” tool in creating a safe space for staff to share experiences, swap advice and lead discussions that might not otherwise take place at the building level, she and Stubblefield said. But there’s still more to be done. Among their goals moving forward: continuing recruiting efforts at universities with racially diverse schools of education, and also here in Lawrence with the establishment of a “Grow Your Own” program. The
project, which has been implemented in several school districts across the country, aims to recruit and retain a more racially diverse teaching corps. As far as sustaining the staff of color already working in Lawrence schools, Stubblefield and Moore are also looking to increase the number of staff of color rising to top leadership positions. “From teacher to administrator — those are some of the glass ceilings that our staff of color are hitting currently in our district,” she said. There are many “dedicated, devoted” staffers who have worked for years at the classroom level, Moore said. Now, it’s just a matter of putting in place a series of supports to help them reach their full potential. In other business, the school board: l Unanimously approved its goals for the
2016-2017 school year. Included in the list were an expansion of the district’s Beyond Diversity training for all certified and classified staff, as well as non-employees such as site councils and school resource officers; the creation of a plan to eliminate deficit spending and balance the district budget; and implementation of the district’s 1:1 device program. Lawrence high schools are piloting laptops and iPads this fall, and all middle schoolers have been issued iPads as part of the program. l Voted to send school board vice president Shannon Kimball as the delegate to December’s Kansas Association of School Boards’ annual convention in Wichita.

Oread design guidelines on table BOTTOM LINE Discussion of Oread Neighborhood Design Guidelines, as part of rehearing process.
BACKGROUND The Lawrence-Douglas County Planning Commission and the Lawrence Historic Resources Commission held two joint meetings to discuss the proposed Oread Neighborhood Design Guidelines on Feb. 18, 2016, and March 21, 2016. Both commissions recommended approval of the guidelines and associated rezoning requests to implement them. After the official hearing of March 21, 2016, staff discovered that the rezoning effort was not properly noticed in the neighborhood and a re-hearing must be completed. To proceed with the adoption process for the Oread Neighborhood Design Guidelines, staff will restart the public notice and hearing process for both the Historic Resources Commission and the Planning Commission. This entails hearings before both recommending bodies, not in a joint format as was conducted previously in March. The items will be submitted to the City Commission after the re-hearings occur, which staff anticipates will be July at the earliest.

GOP to retain control of the Senate on Election Day, analysts said Monday. “There’s no way Republicans come out ahead on this,” said Jack Pitney, a political science professor at Claremont McKenna College in California. An NBC News/Wall Street Journal poll released Monday shows that voters favor Democrats over Republicans for Congress by 7 percentage points — Democrats’ biggest lead in that metric since the government
shutdown in October 2013 that most voters blamed on the GOP. The new poll was taken after the Trump tape became public but before Sunday night’s debate between Trump and Democrat Hillary Clinton. “Donald Trump only cares about Donald Trump,” Pitney said. “He doesn’t care what he’s doing to Republicans in Congress.” During Sunday night’s debate, Trump defiantly dismissed his comments in 2005 about grab-

Each week until the election, we will feature a different one. The series has looked at Waukesha County in Wisconsin, Chester County in Pennsylvania, Wayne County in Michigan, Maricopa County in Arizona and Union County in Iowa. Today: Larimer County in Colorado.

FORT COLLINS , COLO. In this college town nestled in the foothills of the Rocky Mountains, a common refrain emerges among Millennial voters. “A lot of people are trending away from the main parties and looking third party,” said Sean Tait, 22, a firefighter. “It would be nice to have new options.” Tait, who grew up with firearms, feels strongly about gun rights. Accessible health care is important to him. Since these
disparate issues are championed by opposing parties, he doesn’t know who will get his vote. In 2012, Tait cast his first presidential ballot for Republican nominee Mitt Romney. This year, it might be Libertarian Gary Johnson or even Democrat Hillary Clinton. “I’m still scoping it out and doing my research,” he said while he and his girlfriend waited in a packed breakfast joint in Old Town. “It’s still too early to make up my mind.” Tait is one of 69.2 million eligible voters in the Millennial bloc of 18- to 34-year-olds, nearly
matching the size of the estimated 69.7 million voting Baby Boomers in the USA, according to the Pew Research Center. Whether Millennials flex their voting muscle and swing the outcome of the election remains a question mark. A generation high of 50% of Millennials voted for president in 2008, compared with 46% in 2004 and 2012, according to Pew. That compares with more than 60% turnout among Generation X voters and almost 70% of Baby Boomers in each of those elections. v STORY CONTINUES ON 2B
To calm his nerves for frequent airline flights, Jason Ellis swaddles his marmoset Gizmo in a blanket and tucks him into his shirt. “You look into his eyes, and it’s like looking into human eyes,” said Ellis, 30, of Las Vegas, who travels weekly for work on innovative lighting for growing cannabis. “Just having him with me, it’s like your security blanket.” Critters such as Gizmo, a species of monkey, are allowed to tag along on flights as emotional-support animals for their owners. A wide variety of animals from turkeys to pigs have joined the stampede of about 100,000 animals riding in airline cabins each year. Airlines would like to close the barn door on emotional-support animals that the Transportation Department opened during the 1990s. They want to limit the animals traveling in plane cabins to trained service dogs, such as those for the blind and deaf. The airlines would also accept miniature horses, as recognized by the Americans with Disabilities Act. v STORY CONTINUES ON 2B

Students benefit from more adults in their communities Graduation rates show boost in study Greg Toppo @gtoppo USATODAY
For decades, communities across the USA have tried all manner of raising high school graduation rates: higher academic standards, better school funding, stricter testing and calls for arts, vocational, Advanced Placement and International Baccalaureate programs. New research from America’s
Promise Alliance suggests there’s another way to raise graduation rates: Simply increase the number of adults in a community. Combining decennial U.S. Census and education data, researchers found that improving the ratio of adults age 25+ to schoolage children helps keep kids on a path to graduation. More adults in a neighborhood means a bigger “web of supports” that benefit all kids, said Jonathan Zaff, a developmental psychologist at the Boston University School of Education and the lead researcher on the project. It’s those relationships that young people need to be success-
The new research finds for every seven adults a neighborhood adds, one fewer young person leaves school.
ful in school, he said. The new research finds for every seven adults a neighborhood adds, one fewer young person leaves school. The effect is even greater in low-income neighborhoods. Researchers have long ex-
plored the adult-to-child ratio idea as it relates to crime policy, Zaff said, but the new findings are the first to apply it to schooling. He said more research is needed to pinpoint exactly why a healthier youth-to-adult ratio aligns with better school outcomes. It makes a certain kind of sense, since the primary role of adults has long been to teach, guide, socialize and provide social norms for young people. When they’re not around to do that job, Zaff said, “then young people will turn to their peers — they’ll turn to their own devices, in a sense, in order to really figure
things out. And what we see from the literature is that when that happens, when you don’t have the guidance of adults, the outcomes typically are not as positive.” He noted, for instance, that international development researchers have long studied the “youth bulge” that results in developing nations when they experience civil wars or epidemics. “All of a sudden there are few adults, but there are a whole lot of young people without (their) guidance and support,” Zaff said. “That’s when you get things like child soldiers and people who don’t go to school — and a lot of other negative outcomes.”

“I have no idea what effect this is going to have on younger voters, other than, ‘Give me something else please.’ And there’s nothing else to give.” Colorado State University political science professor Kyle Saunders
County divided by ‘rule of thirds’ v CONTINUED FROM 1B
Among younger Millennials — voters ages 18-24 — rates are even lower: Only 38% cast a vote for president in 2012, according to the U.S. Census Bureau. Larimer County, home of Fort Collins, has picked the winner in every presidential election except one since 1980. It splits party affiliation: It’s called the rule of thirds — one-third Republican, one-third Democrat and onethird unaffiliated with any political party. The divide deepens in the younger generation. Among Colorado voters ages 26-40, 44% are unaffiliated with any political party. For those 25 and younger, it grows to 48.4%, according to data from the Colorado secretary of State’s office. During the presidential caucuses this year, Democrat Bernie Sanders’ campaign fired up the youth bloc in Colorado. His loss — and what Colorado State University political science professor Kyle Saunders characterizes as a less-than-full-throated endorsement of Clinton — leaves allegiances fragmented as the election nears. Saunders said high negatives for the two major-party candidates typically demobilize younger voters more than those over 35. According to Public Policy Polling results from Sept. 29, 63% of 18- to 29-year-olds had an unfavorable opinion of Republican Donald Trump, and 40% held an unfavorable opinion of Clinton. “I have no idea what effect this is going to have on younger voters, other than, ‘Give me something else please,’ ” Saunders said. “And there’s nothing else to give.” Voters unaffiliated with any political party are more likely to consider third-party candidates, polls show. A national poll by Quinnipiac University taken in August found 60% of Millennials said they’d consider voting for a third party this election. In recent polls, Johnson, a former Republican governor of New Mexico, reached 8.4%. Green Party candidate Jill Stein polled at 3.2%. Those figures were too low to get either candidate into the presidential debates. Young voters expressed concern that casting a ballot for Johnson or Stein would be simply throwing their votes away. Kaley Platek, 23, wrestled with that question at a Stein rally in Fort Collins in August. She liked the vision Stein laid out. But she’s inclined to vote Clinton as a push against Trump — which doesn’t fit a vote from her “conscience.” Eric Powell, 34, of Fort Collins, rejected the notion of being forced to choose between majorparty candidates, especially when a vote for the Democratic or Republican candidate is for someone “you inherently disagree with.” He said Clinton and Trump have too much baggage. “I think younger people are Corrections & Clarifications USA TODAY is committed to accuracy.

About this series To report this series, the USA TODAY Network identified eight counties around the country that represent key voting groups in the November election, from blue-collar and collegeeducated voters to rural voters and Latinos. Journalists spent time with voters, political observers and experts in these eight counties — blue, red and purple — talking about the presidential candidates, the issues and the importance of this year’s election. In the coming weeks, look for our coverage of the following counties: Clark County, Ohio; and Hillsborough County, Fla.
more idealistic,” Powell said. “Older people are more jaded and resigned to the system.” Kristin Lynch, a regional spokesperson for the Clinton campaign, pointed to President Obama’s 2008 and 2012 victories in Colorado as evidence of Millennials being key to Clinton’s victory in November. As a result, the campaign is “firing on all cylinders” to reach them.
Trump doesn’t thrill her, but Emily Carr, 23, says “there’s a lot of things about Hillary” she can’t support. Clinton’s campaign stresses issues such as health care, public lands, college affordability, gay marriage and abortion rights. The campaign isn’t afraid to trot out Sanders supporters to state the case for Clinton. Rachel Keane, the Millennial outreach co-chairwoman for the Trump campaign in Colorado, said her focus has been on Millennials settling into family life, whose attention shifts toward economic and personal security. “A lot of these Millennials have a kid, are working on a second kid,” Keane said. “It’s a natural instinct to want to protect them.” Americans younger than 35 placed the economy and jobs as the top issue in each of three USA TODAY/Rock the Vote polls completed this year. Education and college affordability also ranked high, as did foreign policy and homeland security. Fort Collins is home to Colorado State University, where many of the roughly 32,000 enrolled students will vote in their first presidential election this year. Campus Democrats and Republicans hold events around the presidential debates, bolstered by lively social media accounts. “Nobody 2016” stickers started appearing on campus in August, offering a contrast to the regular fall voter-registration drives.

Working Millennials constitute a growing voting bloc. Political parties work in the city’s off-campus gathering spots — farmers markets, festivals, Old Town Square — to reach young voters. Emily Carr, 23, who works in the insurance industry, said she plans to vote for Trump, even if that doesn’t thrill her. Carr’s support hinges more on disdain for Clinton. She describes herself as pro-life and “not a feminist.” “Personality-wise, it doesn’t thrill me to vote for Trump,” Carr said. “But I think there’s a lot of things about Hillary that I don’t think I could stand with.” Josh Middleton, 29, a videographer, predicted a turnout like that of Obama’s first campaign, when 131 million people voted. Instead of enthusiasm for a candidate, he said, turnout this year will be driven by how many Millennials recoil at the idea of a Trump presidency. “We look at the candidates we have, and it’s really discouraging,” Middleton said.
Candidates trapped in ‘locker room’ dilemma v CONTINUED FROM 1B
“They risk alienating the most loyal Trump supporters if they denounce him,” Herzik said. “And they’re still going to be criticized by Democrats for supporting him for months. I don’t think you can walk back your support for Trump at this point and actually gain voters. The best you can hope for is you might limit the bleeding.” Republican Senate candidates have been rushing to do that since the tape of Trump making the lewd comments became public Friday afternoon. Republicans hold 54 seats in the 100-seat Senate. If Hillary Clinton wins the White House, Democrats need capture only four GOP seats to retake control, because the Democratic vice president would break ties in their favor. Among the GOP senators and candidates in competitive races who rescinded their endorsements of Trump: Sens. Kelly Ayotte of New Hampshire, John McCain of Arizona and Rob Portman of Ohio. Rep. Joe Heck, who is running for the open Senate seat in Nevada being vacated by retiring Minority Leader Harry Reid, also took back his support of Trump. When Heck announced his decision Saturday at a campaign rally, he was booed by some Trump loyalists. “They called him traitor,” Herzik said. “That’s the risk you take.” Sen. Pat Toomey, R-Pa., denounced both Trump and Clinton in his latest comments while stopping short of saying whether he will vote for Trump on Nov. 8. “Sadly, last night’s debate again showed the shortcomings of both presidential candidates,” Toomey said in a statement Monday. “I have not endorsed Donald Trump, and I have repeatedly spoken out against his flawed policies and his outrageous comments, including his indefensible and appalling comments about women.” Toomey also denounced Clinton and his Democratic challenger, Katie McGinty. “Katie McGinty has yet to say a single word against Hillary Clinton’s disastrous policies that have endangered our country, her widespread dishonesty or the corruption of her behavior with the Clinton Foundation,” Toomey said. McGinty called on Toomey to “man up” and oppose Trump. Pitney said the best thing a Republican candidate can do in this difficult situation is to tell voters how they truly feel about Trump instead of trying to straddle the political line. “In a campaign, insincerity shows,” the professor said.
Consequences go beyond Galaxy v CONTINUED FROM 1B
quality and safety matters. Samsung recalled 2.5 million of the original Note 7s last month, and consumers exchanged many of the phablet-sized phones for handsets that Samsung insisted were safe to use. Last week, a replacement Note 7 caught fire on a Southwest Airlines flight from Louisville to Baltimore, prompting an evacuation. In the days since, there have been reports of at least two other phones overheating. The massive stoppage has major consequences not only for Samsung but the smartphone market. As the largest seller of smartphones worldwide, Samsung could lose customers to rivals Apple or Google, which announced a new Android phone of its own last week. Samsung could pay a steep price: Its recall and product stoppage could cost up to $2 billion. In the USA, leading carriers AT&T, Sprint, T-Mobile and Verizon Wireless have already temporarily halted sales and exchanges of the phone, an action Kaye praised in his statement. While the investigation continues, the safety commission and Samsung advised Note customers to turn off their devices and to take advantage of available remedies, including a full refund. “This is the safest course of ac-

T-Mobile CEO John Legere weighed in with a tweet urging customers to return to stores “ASAP.” The episode has been a PR nightmare for Samsung and has raised questions about the future of the Note franchise, which had drawn rave reviews and initially strong sales. Samsung customers are fiercely loyal, but the crisis could test even their patience if it is pro-
tracted, says Carolina Milanesi, an analyst at market researcher Creative Strategies. “Some buyers might have been upgrading from the Galaxy S line, in which case they might now still look at that or look at a Pixel,” she said. Derek Hopkins, 36, of Philadelphia got the original Note 7 when it came out in August. He picked up a replacement device last week. The reports of faulty phones have left him torn. He’s considering the iPhone 7 Plus, though he’ll give Samsung an additional week or so to fix the issue. Jeremy Robinson-Leon, a principal at the Group Gordon crisis management communication firm, said Samsung must figure out why the phones have been overheating before repairing its reputation. By way of comparison, he says, “there was no way (British Petroleum) was going to rebuild its brand until the oil at the bottom of the ocean stopped gushing.” Consumers with the phones can call 1-844-365-6197 to get more information or visit samsung.com/us/note7recall.

AMERICA’S MARKETS What to watch Adam Shell @adamshell USA TODAY
In a crazy election season, Wall Street has found comfort in the notion of divided government, figuring that no matter which candidate wins the White House, the checks and balances of divided government would keep the most extreme policies far from the fast track to becoming law. But after the second presidential debate, at least one Wall Street pro says there’s a long-shot chance that the Democrats can retain the White House and might also have a shot at recapturing the Senate and House. If that election outcome were to occur, it would mean Hillary Clinton would have free rein to push her agenda of higher taxes, more regulation of businesses, clean

Still, over the weekend, the betting odds of the Republicans keeping the House fell from 98% to 77%. The Senate is up for grabs. “If we are wrong and a wave is building against House Republicans, the largest market impact could be the pulling forward of income as investors anticipate 2017 tax increases,” Clifton says. “We could also see pressure building on pharma (drug prices), financials (bank regulations) and oil companies (intangible drilling credit tax increase and climate change accounting).

Trump Taj Mahal closes after years of losses Roger Yu
@ByRogerYu USA TODAY
The Trump Taj Mahal, an iconic casino hotel on the Atlantic City boardwalk, ceased operations Monday after hemorrhaging money for years and negotiations with an employees’ union broke down, according to its owner, billionaire investor Carl Icahn. The shutdown, which leaves 3,000 employees out of work, was widely expected after manage-
ment announced the planned closure in August. Beset by labor strife and the decline of Atlantic City as a resort and gaming destination, the hotel lost “almost $350 million over just a few short years,” Icahn said in a statement Monday. About 1,000 employees, including cooks, bartenders, housekeepers and cocktail servers, went on strike July 1, seeking health care and pension benefits. Icahn said his last offer, which included medical benefits, was rejected and that keeping the Taj open would have required additional

investments and result in losses in “excess of $100 million over the next year.”
The union, Unite Here Local 54, says many workers at the hotel “have seen only 80 cents per hour in total raises over the last 12 years” while the cost of living in Atlantic City has risen more than 25% during the period. “Housekeepers, servers and other casino workers at the Taj Mahal earn on average less than $12 an hour,” the union said in a statement last month. Meanwhile, Tony Rodio, CEO of Tropicana Entertainment Inc., which manages the hotel for Icahn Enterprises, said in August Icahn has lost about $100 million
in trying to run the Taj Mahal after he acquired it from bankruptcy proceedings in February. Tropicana Entertainment is controlled by Icahn Enterprises. At least four other casinos in the city have closed since 2014, including Showboat Casino Hotel, Revel, the Atlantic Club and Trump Plaza Hotel. The Trump Taj Mahal opened in 1990. In 2009, Trump Entertainment Resorts underwent a round of bankruptcy restructuring in which Donald Trump, the current GOP presidential candidate, lost control.

IT’S YOUR BIRTHDAY WHO’S CELEBRATING TODAY?
It’s thinly disguised war for the ‘Mascots’ multitude Brian Truitt l @briantruitt l USA TODAY
D
og-show nuts, folk musicians and small-town thespians have been revealed in all their absurdist glory through director Christopher Guest’s film lens. Now here come the people in big animal heads. Netflix’s Mascots (streaming Thursday) focuses on the wacky competitors getting ready for the World Mascot Association championships. Up for grabs: the prestigious Gold Fluffy trophy. With signature improvised comedies such as Best in Show and Waiting for Guffman, Guest is “a master at finding subcultures,” says Jane Lynch, a Guest regular who stars as celebrity judge Gabby Monkhouse. “They all speak to the same thing, which is a group of people singlemindedly doing one thing and having great desire to be a winner. Deep down, that’s us, too: Nobody wants to be ordinary.” Lynch and another Guest favorite, Fred Willard, break down the challengers.
THE FIST
SID THE HEDGEHOG
British import Owen Golly Jr. (Tom Bennett) is the third generation in his family to wear the Sid costume but wants to take some risks, including a stunt involving serious height. “That was like a circus act,” Willard says. “I was nervous just watching him.” It made for a “delightful” scene, Lynch adds: “It took a lot of courage to break his family tradition. It was a really sweet moment.”
JACK THE PLUMBER
When eager, earnest Phil Mayhew (Christopher Moynihan) isn’t trying to connect with attractive classmates from high school, he dons Jack’s large head and working-class togs. “That was my favorite,” says Willard, who plays Phil’s mascot coach Greg Gammons Jr. Jack’s routine involves the plumber “removing” a little guy in a No. 2 costume from a giant toilet, and Gabby is not amused. “I love a good poo joke,” says Lynch, but Gabby “thinks mascotting is a very refined and classy endeavor, and they put it right in the toilet, if you will.”

ALVIN THE ARMADILLO
Southerner Cindi Babineaux (Parker Posey) is famous for her modern-dance movements when cheering on the Amelia Earhart College for Women basketball team. Alvin’s routine “ was very artistic and out there and abstract,” Lynch says. “She had a narrative that made no sense, went on way too long, was painful and nobody got it. Yet it was the character digging deep within her being to create this.”

Canadian hockey mascot Tommy “Zook” Zucarello (Chris O’Dowd) is the competition’s bad boy, and his attitude is readily apparent from his costume: a gigantic closed fist. “I loved the Fist, but Gabby found it violent and assaultive and like being in a horror movie,” Lynch says.
Will Billy Bush be back soon hosting the Today show? It’s not looking good. Bush was nowhere to be seen on Monday’s show, and his absence might end up being permanent — only weeks after he started as the newest member of the Today team. NBC is keeping mum, saying only that it is reviewing Bush’s role in a 2005 video/audiotape in which he is heard egging on Donald Trump as the then-NBC reality star — now the GOP presidential candidate — graphically discussed sexually assaulting women. But Today producer Noah Oppenheim, in a memo announcing Bush’s suspension, told staff “there is simply no excuse for Billy’s language and behavior on that tape.” And Today’s Savannah Guthrie acknowledged the issue during Monday’s coverage of the tape and its explosive effect on the campaign and the candidates’ debate Sunday in St. Louis. “We want to note one other thing: Pending further review of

Bush issued a statement late Friday saying he was “ashamed” and “embarrassed” by his role in the 2005 recording. the matter, NBC News has suspended Billy Bush, who now hosts Today’s third hour, for his role in the conversation with Donald Trump,” Guthrie said. Bush, 44, was an anchor on Access Hollywood, NBC’s entertainment news show, until this summer, when he was promoted to Today. Now that’s in jeopardy as NBC, already scorned for scandals and flubs by its news stars Brian Williams and Matt Lauer, ponders what to do with Bush. It should be a no-brainer, says University of Maryland broadcast journalism professor and former
NBC employee Mark Feldstein. “I think Billy Bush deserves to lose his job, not just because of the misogyny of his comments but because he clearly knew about this videotape and the remarks Trump made and concealed it from the public and his bosses at NBC for some time,” Feldstein says. “This is the biggest story of the political season, and he knew about it and did not report it. A journalist’s job is to report the news, not cover it up.” For much of his career, Bush (a nephew of former President George H.W. Bush and cousin of
former president George W. Bush and his brother, former GOP candidate Jeb Bush) has been an entertainment journalist, known for his affable demeanor and his unctuous interviews with a multitude of A-list stars. Although Bush does not have the journalistic stature of a Williams or a Lauer, he’s the co-host with Tamron Hall of the third hour of Today, which traditionally has a female-dominated audience and has plenty of women on its staff. If it looks like this episode will hurt Today’s stature with women — and allow Good Morning America to gain more ground at its expense — then Bush could have difficulty surviving. His suspension allows NBC to buy time to gauge whether there’s a “stain” on his reputation that would prevent him from being an effective host, says Jonathan Klein, a former CNN chief. At stake, he says, are “tens of millions of dollars,” and even the loss of a small fraction of viewers will hit the show’s bottom line. “What they have to wrestle with is less his actions than the perception of him by their audience, which is predominantly women; his culpability has almost nothing to with it,” Klein says. “The bottom line for them is who’s a member of good standing in the family, who will the audience tolerate, and who will the staff?”

Dear Annie: Sadly, my brother isn’t speaking to me. He is married with two children, 17 and 15. I have been part of their life, although it has been difficult. His wife is from a different country. She sabotages all efforts I make to see her children and has told me that my children and I are dead to her. We have never done anything to upset them; however, I have been told I am not a good sister-in-law because I didn’t live up to what she felt I should do. She said she expected me to baby-sit and spend a lot of time with them. I have tried to contact the kids, but my brother says to not contact them. My mother had serious health issues, and he does not allow his kids to see her. I think that his wife has mental health issues

‘American Housewife’ over-the-top “American Housewife” (7:30 p.m., ABC, TV-14) joins the ranks of the network’s many “same-but-different” sitcoms about imperfect nuclear families. Katy Mixon stars as Katie Otto, the titular sassy mother of three. Katie has a wisecracking disdain for ambition and perfection reminiscent of Roseanne C o n n e r on “Roseanne.” But Roseanne, her husband and her friends all worked blue-collar jobs and were smart and hip enough to question a system that kept them uninsured and underpaid. “Housewife” is more about status than class, so the barbs are directed at Fitbits and those who wear them. Other mothers are portrayed as passive-aggressive, meangirl monsters forever exercising and judging those who don’t. Many of Katie’s zingers and observations arrive via voiceover, a device than only works for so long. The pilot begins when Katie discovers that her heftier neighbor is leaving town. Without the woman she calls “Fat Pam,” Katie will be considered the “second-fattest woman” in town, a plight she cannot endure. So, to recap, we’re supposed to laugh at Katie’s put-downs of her self-absorbed neighbors even while she’s engaged in pretty much talking only about herself (to herself) and fatshaming unseen women while she’s at it. “Housewife” clearly means well and takes sides with “normal” people with “healthy” attitudes. But, as on too many ABC sitcoms, the situations are all a bit too over-the-top, and the observations a bit too much on the nose. Tonight’s season premieres

YOUR HEALTH YOUR COMMUNITY YOUR STORY
Take care of your ankles By Amy Northrop
T
rying to maximize your steps each day to reach the enviable 10,000 mark is great for your health. Yet, for some, all those strides may also lead to foot and ankle problems. When you add in other foot and ankle pounding activities like running and jumping, it may literally become difficult to stand on your own two feet (and ankles). “Your ankle is one of the toughest joints in your body,” said Dr. Jennifer Waterman, an orthopedic surgeon who specializes in foot and ankle care. “But injury, rheumatoid arthritis or even old-fashioned wear and tear (also known as osteoarthritis) can cause that joint to weaken, and motion to become stiff and painful.” According to Waterman, who practices locally at OrthoKansas, ankle arthritis develops most often due to a traumatic injury to the area — a bad sprain, torn ligaments or, worse, an ankle break. Even if the injury received proper medical care at the time, the resulting damaged area is seven times more likely to become arthritic in the future than an uninjured joint. Time frames and severity can differ for every person, so talking with a member of the American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society, like Waterman, provides each patient with an in-depth analysis of the root cause of the pain and a tailored treatment option to fit your needs and activity level. “I recommend conservative treatments first for anyone experiencing ankle arthritis,” said Waterman. “Adjusting movements to lessen pain, physical therapy, anti-inflammatory medications, injections, bracing and even shoe modifications can help many patients maximize their daily activities and minimize pain. However, when that achy, throbbing ankle starts affecting daily life, there are surgical options that may help too.” An ankle fusion is the most customary treatment for severe ankle arthritis. The bones of the joint are fused together to make one continuous bone, and held in place by plates and screws to fix the joint in a permanent position. Recovery takes up to three months. The surgery is generally very successful in decreasing pain and im-
Arthritis signs Although the causes and symptoms of ankle arthritis can vary, the most common signs are: l pain with motion. l pain that flares up with vigorous activity. l tenderness when pressure is applied to the joint. l joint swelling, inflammation, warmth or redness. l increased pain and swelling in the morning, or after sitting or resting. l difficulty in walking due to any of the above symptoms.
proving function. However, there may be some limited movement up and down by the ankle, resulting in a stiffer ankle feeling. Full recuperation takes around six to nine months.
An ankle replacement procedure inserts an artificial ankle joint in place of the damaged one. Most implants are custom designed and fitted to your foot and ankle specifications. Unfortunately, the life cycle of the artificial joint is variable by patient, and complications after surgery can be difficult to address. Therefore, ankle replacement surgery is best for persons over 60 years of age. Recovery also takes about six to nine months. “The patient plays a key role in any treatment method — conservative, fusion or joint replacement,” said Waterman. “Talking with an orthopedic specialist as early as possible can help control pain and reduce damage to joints. Likewise, exercising and

Common illnesses during cold weather And some advice on avoiding them By Joanna Hlavacek

s temperatures drop over the fall and winter months, our risk for contracting illness only goes up. Here, Dr. Karen Evans, a family medicine specialist at Lawrence’s Mt.

In her practice, that often means bronchitis and pneumonia. “A lot of times, those types of things are exacerbations of (chronic conditions like) asthma and COPD, which means they become acutely worse,” Evans says.

They’re available at just about any doctor’s office or pharmacy around town, and also at the Lawrence-Douglas County Health Department, 200 Maine St., where prices range from $21 to $57 for a high-dose version for those 65 and older.

PUBLIC NOTICE CONTINUED FROM PAGE 3C dinance, for an unlimited deferral period; NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT ORDAINED BY THE GOVERNING BODY OF THE CITY OF LAWRENCE, KANSAS: Section 1. Whenever the Governing Body of the City may create an improvement district in an undeveloped area of the City which is owned by a political subdivision of the State of Kansas, and whenever a public improvement may be constructed in such an improvement district, the expense of which is chargeable to the improvement district, the Governing Body may, in its discretion, provide for delay in the payment of such assessments, under the terms and conditions specified in this Ordinance; and for such cost may issue internal improvement bonds of the City as provided by law. The procedure for assessing and collecting the assessments or for redeeming property from special assessments shall be for the same as for bonds issued for improvements authorized under K.S.A.12-6a01 et seq., as far as said statutes may be applicable, and for the costs of such improvements which are payable by the City at large, the City may also issue general improvement bonds of the City which bonds shall be repayable by the levy of a general tax on all the property in the City. Section 2. The Governing Body of the City may, in its discretion, authorize and provide for the deferral of special assessments for the cost of constructing public improvements in improvement districts which contain property owned by a political subdivision of the State of Kansas and which are in undeveloped areas of the City. The Governing Body may provide for delay in the beginning of payment of assessments upon such property for a designated period not exceeding 20 years or until the time such property is sold or conveyed to a party other than said political subdivision, provided that if the property is sold or conveyed to a party other than the political subdivision and such party agrees to construct a speculative building for resale on such property, and such party presents proof satisfactory to the City of such party’s ability to construct such building, the Governing Body may provide for a continuation of the deferral period until the time as such party sells or leases the property to a subsequent purchaser or lessee, and provided further, that the entire period of deferral shall not exceed 20 years. All assessments levied upon property which are deferred under the terms of this Ordinance shall become due and payable when ownership of the property changes to an owner not eligible for deferral under this Ordinance, as described above, or at the expiration of the deferral period. Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon written request of Douglas County, Kansas, the governing body of the City may, in its discretion, authorize and provide for the deferral of special assessments for the cost of constructing public improvements levied against lots and pieces of land owned by the Board of County Commissioners of Douglas County within the East Hills Business Park Improvement District, for an additional five (5) years, for a total deferral period of twenty-five (25) years. Section 3. All ordinances of the City levying special assessments for the costs of constructing public improvements upon property for which the property has been granted a deferral in payment shall state that such assessments have been deferred and the terms of this Ordinance and shall state the period of the deferral granted, except that after passage of Ordinance No. 9293 the City may defer special assessments for the cost of construction of public improvements levied against lots and pieces of land owned by the Board of County Commissioners of Douglas County within the East Hills Business Park Improvement District for an indefinite period of time and shall not be required in any such ordinance to state the period of the deferral granted. The City Clerk shall, when certifying such special assessments to the county clerk, note thereon the words, “payment deferred” and the period for which the deferral is granted. Such assessments, when levied and certified, and when they become due under the terms of this Ordinance, shall be collected as other taxes. Section 4. Whenever the Governing Body of the City shall grant a deferral in the payment of assessments under the provisions of this act, the Governing Body shall provide for the payment of principal and interest on any bonds issued for the payment of the costs of such improvement during the period for which such deferral has been granted by the levy of a tax upon all of the taxable property of the City in the manner provided for the payment of bonds payable by the City in at large. The portion of such bonds issued for payment of the costs of such improvements which are payable by the City at large during the assessment deferral period shall be considered bonds payable by the City at large. When such deferred assessments become due and payable under the terms of this Ordinance, the costs incurred by the City at large by reason of and during the time of the deferral period shall be paid by the special assessment against the property and the proceeds thereof paid into the general bond and interest fund of the City. Upon a determination that deferred assessments have become due, the City Clerk shall notify the county clerk of the balance of such assessment and that it is to be collected in the manner provided by law. In no event shall the amount so collected exceed the amount of the original assessment plus interest which would have been charged initially if deferral had not been granted. Section 5. This Ordinance hereby supersedes Ordinance No. 8258 and shall take effect from and after its passage and publication in the official City newspaper, as provided by law.

Self discusses Jayhawks’ hopes By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com
Tom Keegan tkeegan@ljworld.com
Jaynes is proof football recruiting possible at Kansas Joe Namath was all the rage in professional football when David Jaynes wore Namath’s long hair and No. 12 for Bonner Springs High.` Like so many quarterbacks from across the country, Jaynes was sure he was going to be the next Namath. What separated Jaynes from the rest of them was Jaynes that he had a cannon like Namath’s and was being pursued by Super Joe’s college coach, legendary Bear Bryant of the Alabama Crimson Tide. Jaynes, who lives in Los Angeles with his wife Barbara, was in town for a KU football reunion he organized for former KU coach Pepper Rodgers’ 85th birthday, which coincided with Saturday’s 24-23 loss to TCU. Terry Donahue, the best football coach in UCLA history, was the Rodgers assistant in charge of recruiting Jaynes and was in Lawrence for the reunion. “I visited Alabama twice and Bear Bryant came here twice to see me, so Terry was up against a big challenge, had to climb over a big hill,” Jaynes said. The hill grew steeper when Jaynes signed an SEC letter of intent with Alabama. “Back in those days, the conference letter of intent was 30 days before the national letter of intent,” Jaynes said. “The letter I signed just bound you to an SEC school, not to other NCAA institutions. Bear Bryant comes up. We had a big signing party, the whole deal. I’m signed. I’m ready to go. I’m going to Alabama.” Then a few weeks later, Donahue told Jaynes he had an extra ticket to the Kansas-Kansas State basketball game in Allen Fieldhouse. “I sat on the bleachers by what used to be the equipment room in the southwest corner and it was just as intense then as it is now,” Jaynes said. “I went up to (Donahue) at halftime and said, ‘Coach, I changed my mind. I’m going to go to KU.’ He said, ‘What, you’re
Kansas basketball coach Bill Self on Monday joined CBS Sports’ Jon Rothstein for 15 minutes on his regular weekly college basketball podcast and covered a variety of topics from the
Jayhawks’ Big 12 title streak to losing to Villanova last year and entering the 201617 season with a team that’s good enough to extend the streak and make some noise in March. Never one to oversell his program, it’s clear that Self believes the Jayhawks have
a chance to accomplish some big things this season, but, to hear Self tell it, that’s really nothing new. Since Self’s arrival before the 2003-04 season, the Jayhawks have never been lower than a 4 seed in the NCAA Tournament. Add to that the fact that Self has led
the Jayhawks to a national title, two Final Fours and six Elite Eight appearances and it’s clear that Kansas has been a consistent contender under Self. “We’ve been a team that’s been in the game,” Self told

LAWRENCE HIGH SENIOR MIDFIELDER Ebrahim Diagne (10) tries to make a move around Free State’s Rowan Laufer (4).
Monday’s City Showdown between Lawrence High and Free State boys soccer teams was less of a rivalry game and more of a display of support. The two teams and crowd united behind Free State senior Owen Kapfer and the rest of his teammates, who were playing with a heavy heart. Kapfer’s mother, Amanda, died Saturday following a battle with cancer. Fans from both schools wore yellow shirts in her honor. Players from both teams released yellow bal-
loons in memory of Kapfer’s mother following a moment of silence. Students signed a large white poster that read #KapferStrong. With Kapfer’s siblings in the crowd — his brother Oliver plays for Free State’s C-team — Kapfer started at midfielder and had the crowd chant his name on a few occasions. “It makes me want to live in LK (Lawrence) for the rest of my life,” Kapfer said after his team’s eventual 1-0 victory, “because I had backing from LHS and Free State as

Beaty not making excuses for Kansas’ loss By Benton Smith basmith@ljworld.com
In the Kansas football team’s narrow loss Saturday to TCU, the Jayhawks only drew five penalties for 61 yards. It just so happened one of those flags cost Kansas > KEEGAN, 3D a touchdown in a 24-23 loss.
Early in the third quarter, KU sophomore quarterback Ryan Willis swung a pass out to the right flat for sophomore running back Taylor Martin, who had plenty of space near the sideline to make an impact play. As Martin took off for what would have been a 40-yard
touchdown, Kansas senior offensive lineman D’Andre Banks got flagged for holding while making a cut block near the line of scrimmage — before Martin even caught the pass. On Monday’s Big 12 coaches media teleconference, second-year Kansas
head coach David Beaty said he would’ve preferred the play had gone the Jayhawks’ way and indicated he thought Banks executed a legal block. Still, Beaty added, Kansas had plenty of other opportunities to win

The comeback of Tiger Woods is going to have to wait at least two more months. Three days before Woods planned to end his longest break from golf at the Safeway Open, he abruptly withdrew on Monday and said his game was not ready to take on PGA Tour competition. “My health is good, and I feel strong,” Woods said on his website. “But my game is vulnerable and not where it needs to be.” And so the waiting continues. Woods first announced on Woods Sept. 7 that he planned to play three times by the end of the year, starting with the Safeway Open at Silverado Resort in Napa, Calif. Then, he officially committed to the tournament on Friday. The buzz was building for his return, with word leaking that he would be paired with Phil Mickelson and defending Silverado champion Emiliano Grillo. Instead, Woods withdrew from the Safeway Open and the Turkish Airlines Open on Nov. 3-6 after what he described as “a lot of soul searching.” He said he plans to play at his Hero World Challenge on Dec. 1-4 in the Bahamas. “When I announced last week I was going to Safeway, I had every intention of playing, or I wouldn’t have committed,” Woods said. He was at the Ryder Cup two weeks ago as an assistant captain and said the experience “inspired me even more to play.” Woods said he practiced the last several days in California, where he also went to Stanford’s football game against Washington State. “But after a lot of hours, I knew I wasn’t ready to compete against the best golfers in the world,” he said. “I would like to apologize and send my regrets to Safeway, the Turkish Airlines Open, the fans in California and Turkey and those that had hoped to watch me compete on TV. This isn’t what I wanted to happen, but I will continue to strive to be able to play tournament golf. “I’m close, and I won’t stop until I get there.” Woods last played on Aug. 23, 2015, at the Wyndham Championship. Two shots out of the lead going into the final round, he closed with a 70 and tied for 10th. A month later, he announced he had another operation on his back. Then, Woods had a third back surgery in October. He missed all four majors for the first time in his career. Johnny Miller, the tournament host at Silverado, said Woods pledged he would return to the Safeway Open next year if he is able. The Safeway Open is the first tournament in the PGA Tour’s wraparound schedule.

well. That was beautiful.” Afterward, Kapfer had hundreds of students line up to give him hugs and offer words of support. He said it was tough to show up for a half-day of school, the required amount to play in the game because of Kansas High School Activity Association rules. Free State coach Kelly Barah said it was hard to put the night into words because “amazing doesn’t even cut it.” “The community today showed us that you can have amazing people and a community can come together for the right reason — support kids and

kidding?’ I said, ‘No.’ He took me up to coach Rodgers’ office.” Jaynes recounted the conversation with Rodgers: “Pepper said, ‘Tomorrow morning we have to call coach Bryant.’ I was thinking, ‘Aw, man, I don’t want to do that.’ So the next morning we go up to Pepper’s office and I didn’t
off of Philadelphia’s practice squad — cut one week, signed back the next, and so forth — another organization, San Francisco, swooped in to sign the former sixthround draft pick on Monday. The Eagles drafted Shepherd 191st overall in the 2015 NFL Draft. The 5-foot-11,
199-pound corner missed all of his rookie season after tearing his right anterior cruciate ligament in preseason camp. After spending the past several months rehabbing his way back to playing shape, Shepherd didn’t make Philadelphia’s 53-man roster
before this season began. Then came the Eagles’ constant roster tweaking with Shepherd, who has yet to play in a regular-season game. “They just tell me, roster moves are roster moves,” Shepherd told Philadelphia reporters last week.
try to make them better people,” Barah said. “I’m so proud to say Lawrence is the place I live in and to watch it all unfold was absolutely beautiful.” On the field, Free State senior midfielder Cooper Moreano scored the game-winning goal on a rebound with 13:55 remaining. The sequence started with a free kick from sophomore Rowan Laufer into the 18-yard box. The ball bounced around and settled on Moreano’s foot, and he drilled it into the back of the net. “Me and Nick (Howard), we went up for it and collided with another guy,” Moreano said. “Both of them fell and I kind of stumbled. I just looked to find the ball and it’s rolling and it hits Nick
in the head as he’s on the ground, and I just hit it in. I don’t know, kind of a wacky goal.” Moreano raised his arms in the air and he sprinted over to a rock inscribed with “Ubuntu,” the team’s motto and an African philosophy that means “I am who I am because of who we are.” Kapfer was set to check into the contest during Moreano’s goal and he was mobbed by his teammates. “Of course my teammates run over and find me and they all pick me up and hug me,” Kapfer said. “I wouldn’t have it any other way.” The Firebirds (7-4-1) outshot LHS, 14-9, and controlled possession for most of the second half. Moreano said at halftime, “we realized what we
were playing for.” In the first half, both teams traded quality opportunities. LHS senior goalkeeper Apramay Mishra made a couple of diving stops against Free State’s Heitor Nazareth and Toufik Ahmmed. For the Lions (5-6-1), senior midfielder Ebrahim Diagne danced around the top of the 18yard box in the first half and fired a shot that was deflected off of the crossbar by Free State goalie Jonathan Lesslie. LHS senior forward Cain Scott nearly drew a penalty kick at the end of the first half, falling down in the box in a race to the ball. But no call was made to the dismay of his teammates. “We were trying to dribble through (defenders) a little too much,”
LHS coach Mike Murphy said. “But at the same time, when those guys have got the ball on their foot and they’re thinking attack and score, it’s hard to fault them for wanting to do that.” Afterward, Kapfer admitted it was hard to pull himself out of bed Monday morning, but he “definitely” felt the love from both schools. His teammates said they just wanted to do their best to be there for him. “A lot of them were really, really close as well to Mrs. Kapfer,” Barah said. “There are so many more people hurting. But it’s nice to see that they’ve bought into the fact that we can all do things together. Nobody travels alone and it’s beautiful to watch.”
champion Villanova. Self and Rothstein discussed the Villanova loss in detail and Self said, even as much as it hurt, it was one he could stomach. “It’s not awful to lose to a team that won a national championship and played to a national championship level,” he said. “But we had a team that was playing well enough and was good enough to do it ourselves, and that doesn’t sit very well.”
As is the case every season, Self said the bulk of his focus on the Villanova loss since March 26 has been not on the specifics of the game — KU’s slow start, Devonté Graham’s foul trouble, Wayne Selden’s rough shooting night or Perry Ellis’ inability to score — but rather on what could be learned from the outcome. “I reflect back and think about, did we maximize what we had,” Self
said. “You have to look at it as a whole first, and then you have to dissect it as you get really down to it: OK, what can we do different to put us in a better position so that when we’re in that position again we’re more prepared.” That’s what has Self so eager for the start of the 2016-17 season, which will begin, in exhibition form anyway, three weeks from tonight at Allen Fieldhouse against Washburn.
Not only does Self believe this year’s team has a chance to extend the Big 12 title streak and contend at the highest level, but he also likes the make-up of the 2016-17 squad and talked about why with Rothstein. “I think this team will be a team that’s in the game,” Self said. “But how much we like each other, how much we enjoy playing with each other, how the pieces fit, that still remains to be seen.”
know it at the time, but I’m pretty sure Pepper faked calling coach Bryant’s office on a Sunday morning: ‘Oh, coach Bryant’s not there? Well, will you please tell coach Bryant that David Jaynes has changed his mind and he’s going to Kansas.’ I thought OK, great, I’m off the hook. That’s it.’ ” Freshmen were ineligible at the time and when Jaynes was a sophomore Rodgers was in his first year at UCLA and took Donahue with him. The
three men remain close and had a great time swapping stories over the weekend. Jaynes started three seasons for Don Fambrough, broke a slew of school records and placed fourth in the 1973 Heisman Trophy voting. If he had not injured his shoulder, he might have become the next Joe Namath in the pros. “By the way, KU’s record when I was being recruited was 1-9,” Jaynes said. “You can recruit here, but you
have to work at it. If Terry hadn’t followed up, I would have gone to Alabama and been the greatest third-string quarterback in the history of Alabama football. My point is, when people say you can’t recruit at Kansas, I don’t believe it.” Now, more than ever, it seems players are pressured by peers, parents and even high school coaches in some cases, to accept the most prestigious offer. But it’s not as if there were a short-
age of factors favoring Alabama vs. Kansas back in Jaynes’ day. “The program was not great,” Jaynes said of Kansas. “Alabama’s facilities were infinitely better than ours at the time. Kansas was 1-9, and it was coach Bryant. Coach Bryant!” Much has changed in college football since then, but one recruiting advantage at KU’s disposal has not. “Something about Allen Fieldhouse,” Jaynes said.

in the nearly two quarters that followed. “It’s unfortunate, because I thought D’Andre really did throw a really nice block there,” Beaty said of the play that negated Martin’s TD. “He really did a good job and the kid didn’t deserve to have a penalty thrown to him, but, you know what, it happens. It’s part of the game. To me it’s what makes college football great. Every now and then there’s gonna be some things that work against you, and how are you gonna respond to it. We had plenty of time left to go in the game.” On the very next play Willis connected with senior receiver Shakiem Barbel on a corner route for 32 yards. But KU had to settle for a 29-yard Matt Wyman field goal with 10:02 left in the third quarter after failing to pick up another first down or reach the end zone. In such situations, the coach said his staff tries to keep the players focused on moving forward. Beaty added Kansas (1-4 overall, 0-2 Big 12) later put Wyman in “long, difficult” field-goal situations on other plays that could’ve turned the outcome of the game in KU’s favor. The Jayhawks’ senior kicker, Wyman missed from 37, 41 and 54 yards in the fourth quarter. Beaty said the Big 12 has too much firepower to settle for so many field-goal tries (Wyman made 3 of 6, including a 50-yarder in the first half). “You’ve gotta score touchdowns,” he said.
Field goal debate? Given that Wyman had missed a pair of fourthquarter field goals before attempting a gamewinner from 54 yards out against TCU, one reporter asked Beaty whether he and special teams coordinator Joe DeForrest discussed having KU’s other place kicker, junior Gabriel Rui, ready for a late-game try. “The thing that we know is Wyman is the only guy that we have on our team that was capable of making a field goal and reaching from that distance,” Beaty replied.

Indians 4, Red Sox 3 Boston — The ball settled into the right fielder’s glove, the Cleveland Indians poured onto the diamond and the fans fell silent. Then, slowly from the Fenway Park crowd rose a chant of “Pa-pi!” While the Indians celebrated a 4-3 victory over the Red Sox for a three-game sweep and a berth in the AL Championship Series, the Boston fans demanded to see David Ortiz one more time Monday night. Ten minutes after the final out, when most of Cleveland’s players had moved the party into the visitors’ clubhouse, chants of “We’re not leaving!” and “Thank you, Papi!” finally drew the beloved slugger back onto the field. Wearing a red warmup and a scowl on his face, Ortiz lumbered out to the mound and tipped his cap in all directions, tapping his heart. Only when the camera zoomed in on him did it become apparent that the frown was not regret over an early postseason exit: Big Papi was crying. After two minutes, Ortiz retired to the dugout and retired for good, ending to a career that brought three World Series titles to Boston and transformed the oncefutile franchise into winners. “I’m glad he didn’t get a hit to beat us,” said Indians manager Terry Francona, who was Ortiz’s manager in Boston when they won the 2004 and ‘07 World Series. “I thought it was an honor to be on the field, competing against him in his last game, because he’s

You could tell the way people were hanging around yelling his name and everything. He deserves every bit of that.” Indians closer Cody Allen got four outs to complete only the second postseason sweep in franchise history. Rookie Tyler Naquin delivered a two-run single and Josh Tomlin pitched five strong innings for the Indians, who reached the ALCS for the first time since 2007 and open at home Friday against Toronto.

Buccaneers 17, Panthers 14 Charlotte, N.C. — Roberto Aguayo kicked a 38-yard field goal as time expired, and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers defeated the Carolina Panthers 17-14 on Monday night. Aguayo had missed from 33 and 46 yards earlier in the game and was just 3 of 7 on field goals this season before the winning kick. Jameis Winston was 18 of 30 for 219 yards and a touchdown, and
led a 66-yard drive to get the Buccaneers (23) into field goal range. A costly 15-yard facemask penalty on Kony Ealy hurt the Panthers. The Panthers turned the ball over four times, three of those by Derek Anderson, who was filling in for the concussed Cam Newton. Greg Olsen had a career-high 181 yards receiving on nine catches and Cameron Artis-Payne ran for two touchdowns for the Panthers (1-4).
