Deborah Bretthauer, was found dead in her apartment on Dec. 28 with what police called “obvious traumatic injuries.” Long was 16 at the time and lived in the
apartment at 1200 George Court with Bretthauer. He was initially charged in juvenile court, but in March, prosecutors filed a motion to charge him as an adult.
A two-day hearing in September featured a number of witnesses who spoke to Long’s past and current mental health, his behavior and the nature of Bretthauer’s death.

City to consider changing Sports Pavilion Lawrence free court policy By Rochelle Valverde rvalverde@ljworld.com

hen I was a student walking around KU, I know what I always hoped to find “at the top of the hill:” an oxygen tank. Instead, I would find the Jayhawk Bookstore, which thanks to a long-running advertising jingle, everyone knew was “at the top of the hill.” The bookstore is no longer open, which has left many wondering what will take its place. There is some news on that front. As we reported in June, the Jayhawk Bookstore closed its doors for good as textbook sales continued to decline. The property at 1420 Crescent Road — it is just west of the Chi Omega fountain and the main entrance to Jayhawk Boulevard — had no shortage of interested buyers. A Kansas City-based equity firm, though, is the group that has finalized a deal to purchase the prime piece of real estate. Axiom Equities, an investment firm that has about a $200 million portfolio of strategic real estate investments, has closed on the property and now is figuring out what to do with it. “It is a front-and-center location in Lawrence,” said Ben Kalny, co-founder of Axiom. “Whatever happens on the site needs to fit with the neighborhood. Our general posture is to lease the

At their meeting today, city commissioners will decide whether to backtrack on a policy made by the previous commission during the contentious approval of the Sports Pavilion Lawrence and Rock Chalk Park projects. Commissioners will consider approving changes to the court use policy at the pavilion, allowing all eight basketball/volleyball courts to be used for large events or tournaments up to 20 days per year. The current policy states that the facility will make at least one court available for free play during operating hours. In July, city administration faced some public criticism for not following the standing policy. All of the pavilion’s courts were closed for free play during the Hardwood Classic, > PAVILION, 2A
E. Lawrence project’s incentives request to be reviewed today By Rochelle Valverde rvalverde@ljworld.com
The first public incentives request to undergo a new review process will go before the City Commission at its meeting today. A mixed-use residential development project proposed for the Warehouse Arts District in East Lawrence is requesting about $650,000 in public incentives from the city, county and school district. The project would convert the old SeedCo building, at 826 Pennsylvania St., into a brewery, restaurant and apartment building. The developer, Williams Management

LLC, is requesting a 10year, 85 percent property tax rebate through the Neighborhood Revitalization Act. A sales tax exemption for the costs of construction materials and remodeling labor, via an Industrial Revenue Bond, is also being sought. City staff is recommending that the commission approve the incentives based on a costbenefit analysis as well as the results of a new “but for” analysis. A “but for” review is meant to show that public assistance is required for the project to be financially feasible. A national consulting firm, which commissioners voted to hire on Oct. 4, analyzed the project’s incentives request. Results from

the approximately 60-page report, including the “but for” analysis, will be presented to the commission today. The firm, National Development Council, determined that the requested incentives are “reasonable” and help to avoid financing gaps that could make the project unlikely to proceed. City staff completed a cost-benefit analysis in accordance with the city’s NRA policy. The analysis found a 1.36 costbenefit ratio for the city, meaning that for every $1 in public incentives, $1.36 of benefit value is returned. The threshold is a 1.25 ratio. Commissioners will also review an affordable housing component for the residential portion of the project. Plans call for 2 of the project’s 14 apartments to be designated as affordable housing units. On Oct. 10, the Affordable Housing Advisory Board

The Public Incentive Review Committee will consider the project’s NRA and IRB request at 3 p.m. today, and its recommendation will be added to the proposal that will be presented to the commission in the evening. In addition to being approved by the city, NRA requests must be approved by the county and school district, which will consider their participation at meetings on Nov. 2 and Nov. 14.

tournaments/events,” according to a city memo. The memo states that since opening its doors in the fall of 2014, the pavilion has hosted more than 60 tournaments or events that generated more than $9.75 million in economic impact for the city. Part of the reason the approval process for the project was controversial is because the city deviated from its standard bidding practices for portions of the site’s infrastructure work. In total,
the city spent about $22.5 million on the project. In addition to the pavilion’s eight courts, the facility includes a walking track, cardio equipment area and weight room, and the designation of a court for free play was presented as one of the communal elements of the facility. The memo says that Lawrence Parks and Recreation Department staff will make every effort to minimize the number of hours free play is not offered and will ensure free
play is available at the other LPRD recreation centers. It also notes that free play would not be eliminated completely during the majority of tournaments. “As teams lose and the number of games being played begins to diminish courts would in turn open up for free play,” the memo states. “Staff will insure that key card holders are notified and adjusted free play times are posted at SPL and on our website at least one week in advance.”
In addition to the court use policy, commissioners will consider authorizing a two-year agreement with Sandbar Subs to be the concessions provider to the Parks and Recreation Department, beginning in November. Part of that contract includes the café located at the pavilion. City commissioners will meet at 5:45 p.m. today at City Hall, 6 E.

some other restaurant basically just a stone’s throw from all those fraternity and sorority houses. You might need to create a special route for the Brinks truck and add a defibrillator or two. The more interesting item, however, may be the talk of “long-term optimization.” That could mean a complete redevelopment of the site. The property is intriguing not just because of its location, but also its zoning. The property has the city’s mixed-use zoning designation, which means it can house a combination of residential, commercial and office development. That zoning designation is key because it gives the development group multiple paths forward without having to go through a full-blown
zoning battle at City Hall. Kalny said a redevelopment of the site, about a half-acre, is possible. “I expect we will have dialogue with folks who have ideas along those lines,” Kalny said. “With what is going on with campus right now, my goodness, it is really impressive. We would be remiss if we didn’t entertain the notion of a higher and better use. But it would have to be the right use, too.” Any redevelopment at that location likely would be watched closely. The bookstore site is adjacent to the West Hills neighborhood, which traditionally has served as a home to lots of university professors and administrators. I know the neighborhood was
pretty active in the City Hall proceedings that resulted in the mixed-use zoning for the property. Neighbors raised some concerns about what that zoning designation could allow in the future. Kalny said he understands any redevelopment of the site is going to have to include significant conversations with the neighborhood. “We know we have a terrific neighborhood next door,” Kalny said. So that’s something to keep an eye on. In the meantime, I’ll let you know when I hear more about potential tenants for the building.

abusive and threatening behavior was worsening. Bretthauer said she would consider the residential treatment, but ultimately she never signed off on the idea. It is not clear why Long was living with his grandmother. Since his arrest in the homicide case, two additional felony battery charges have been filed against Long, Huff noted. A third charge may also be filed.
During the September hearing, three Douglas County Juvenile Detention Center corrections officers testified that Long assaulted them. One said Long threw a chair and hit him on the wrist. Another said Long kicked him in the groin and the third said Long punched him in the face. Huff said she considered Cross’ and Herndon’s testimony, his mental health and criminal background, as well

He did not speak during the hearing. Huff said she considered a number of factors when making her decision, including the seriousness of the offense, Long’s previous history and the rehabilitation resources that would be available to Long in either the adult or juvenile system. “There is no more serious offense than first-degree murder,” Huff said. She noted that Long has three criminal cases pending against him and that Pam Weigend, director of Douglas County Youth Services, where Long is currently being held, said if he is convicted as a juvenile, she was unsure how Youth Services could help him. Now that he will be charged as an adult, Long faces a life sentence if he is convicted. As a juvenile, he would have faced a maximum sentence of 60 months in prison or until age 22. During the September hearing, Lawrence Police Detective Jack Cross testified that Bretthauer had
been stabbed with a bread knife dozens of times on her own bed. When he was interviewed later, Long reportedly told police he didn’t recall arguing with Bretthauer or being angry with her. One of Long’s longtime therapists Loraine Herndon said during the hearing that in 2015, she asked Bretthauer, who would often sit in on Long’s sessions, to consider residential treatment because his

HOUSE CONCURRENT RESOLUTION NO. 5008 A PROPOSITION to amend the bill of rights of the constitution of the state of Kansas by adding a new section thereto, relating to the public right to hunt, fish and trap wildlife. Be it resolved by the Legislature of the State of Kansas, two-thirds of the members elected (or appointed) and qualified to the House of Representatives and two-thirds of the members elected (or appointed) and qualified to the Senate concurring therein: Section 1. The following proposition to amend the constitution of the state of Kansas shall be submitted to the qualified electors of the state for their approval or rejection: The bill of rights of the constitution of the state of Kansas is hereby amended by adding a new section to read as follows: "§ 21. Right of public to hunt, fish and trap wildlife. The people have the right to hunt, fish and trap, including by the use of traditional methods, subject to reasonable laws and regulations that promote wildlife conservation and management and that preserve the future of hunting and fishing. Public hunting and fishing shall be a preferred means of managing and controlling wildlife. This section shall not be construed to modify any provision of law relating to trespass, property rights or water resources." Section 2. The following statement shall be printed on the ballot with the amendment as a whole: "Explanatory statement. This amendment is to preserve constitutionally the right of the public to hunt, fish and trap wildlife subject to reasonable laws and regulations. The right of the public to hunt, fish and trap shall not modify any provision of common law or statutes relating to trespass, eminent domain or any other private property rights."
Proven Leadership
"A vote for this proposition would constitutionally preserve the right of the public to hunt, fish and trap wildlife that has traditionally been taken by hunters, trappers and anglers. This public right is subject to state laws and rules and regulations regarding the management of wildlife and does not change or diminish common law or statutory rights relating to trespass, eminent domain or private property."
Paid for by Barbara Ballard for State Representative Treasurer: Chuck Fisher
"A vote against this proposition would provide for no constitutional right of the public to hunt, fish and trap wildlife. It would maintain existing state laws and rules and regulations governing hunting, fishing and trapping wildlife.”

Area voters say Clinton email having no effect on their votes By Peter Hancock phancock@ljworld.com
Advance voting continued at a heavy pace in Lawrence and Topeka on Monday, but many voters said the latest news about Democrat Hillary Clinton’s use of a private email server while she was secretary of state had no impact on their voting decisions. “Not at all,” said Anne Walters of Lawrence, who cast her ballot Monday. Nancy Gorton, a Topeka voter, had the same reaction. “There has been enough, even before (the latest news),” Gorton said. “Plenty. Plenty of history.” Those responses reflect at least one national poll taken in the immediate aftermath of FBI Director James Comey’s
announcement Friday that his agency was reopening its investigation after agents discovered numerous emails on a laptop computer shared by her close aide, Huma Abedin, and Abedin’s estranged husband, former Congressman Anthony Weiner. The poll by the political news sites POLITICO and Morning Consult found that Trump had gained 3 percentage points on Clinton in the days before the announcement, but that there was no measurable change in the hours after Comey’s highly publicized announcement. Of the 1,772 likely voters who took part in the online poll, 89 percent said they had heard about the FBI review of emails that broke on Friday. Walters did not want to say publicly how she voted in

the presidential race. Gorton, who said she normally votes Democratic, had cast her ballot for Green Party candidate Jill Stein, but she said she made that decision long before the news broke Friday. Alice Weis of Lawrence, who said she voted for Clinton, said the latest email news gave her no reason to hesitate on her vote. And Charles Criqui, a Topeka Democrat who said he voted for Republican Donald Trump, said his mind was made up before the latest news. “It started way back,” Criqui said. Clinton has been under fire throughout the campaign for using a private server located in her home to send and receive emails regarding official State Department business.

KU in top 20 of ‘Best Value’ law schools; other recent rankings
W
ith 83.1 percent of graduates employed and bearing an average of $80,884 in student debt, the University of Kansas School of Law ranks No. 17 on a new national list of Best Value Law Schools. National Jurist’s PreLaw magazine recently published its annual rankings highlighting schools “where graduates have excellent chances of passing the bar and getting a legal job without taking on a ton of debt,” according to the article. The new rankings were based on American Bar Association employment statistics for the class of 2015, as well as other 2015 data sources. Below the top 20, another 38 law schools were given grades of “A-minus” or “Bplus” in the article.

Sara Shepherd sshepherd@ljworld.com
This is the third consecutive year the KU law school has made the top 20 in National Jurist’s “Best Value” list, according to a KU news release. It also noted that more than 75 percent of the incoming class receives scholarships and that U.S. News ranked KU Law 30th in the nation among law schools whose graduates finish school
with the least debt. KU dean of law Stephen Mazza said in KU’s news release: “We provide an outstanding legal education with ample opportunities for students to explore different practice areas through hands-on clinics and field placements. KU Law ranks among the top 25 percent of all law schools for employment, and our graduates are able to choose careers that aren’t defined by excessive financial burdens.” A few other KU rankings and ratings I’ve come across lately: l Grads going into family medicine: Among U.S. medical schools, the KU School of Medicine has the second most graduates — 17.8 percent — who were family

medicine residents in 2015, according to a new American Academy of Family Physicians study, based on averages from the past three years. This ranking is important and good, according to an American Academy of Family Physicians article, because medical schools are still underproducing family physicians. Study corresponding author Stan Kozakowski, director of the academy’s Division of Medical Education, said in the article: “This annual study is important because it represents one outcome measure of the efforts made by U.S. medical schools to produce family physicians ... Our intention is to spark curiosity at a local level. We want state leaders to begin conversations about
all their medical schools so they can learn from each other and try different approaches.” l Honors Program: The KU Honors Program is one of 11 at universities nationwide to receive a “Five Mortarboard” rating (the highest possible) in “Inside Honors: Ratings and Reviews of Sixty Public University Honors Programs,” published in print Oct. 1. According to a KU news release, the program has been toprated in the publication’s past three editions. l Online doctoral programs: Guide to Online Schools has published (online) a “Top Online Colleges” list for 2017. KU is No. 3 of “the top 25 online colleges offering degrees at the doctoral level,” based on affordability and
academic quality. Available programs listed are “Doctor of Occupational Therapy,” “Doctorate in Nursing Practice” and “PhD in Nursing.” l Sexual health: KU moved up — from 83 to 80 of 140 schools — on this year’s Trojan condoms and Sperling’s BestPlaces sexual health “report card,” The University Daily Kansan reports. A KU Health Education Resource Office representative told the Kansan that adding free HIV/STI testing opportunities and the office’s Friday “condom sense” educational programming probably contributed. — This is an excerpt from Sara Shepherd’s Heard on the Hill column, which appears regularly on LJWorld.com.

Grocery store, Jayhawk territory among notable restaurant inspections Lights W & Sirens hen I first started writing up the results for Douglas County restaurant inspections, there were a few places I expected to see on the list. I was right about some and wrong about others. I guess this is the point where I’d remind you all not to judge a restaurant by its marquee. But I never really expected to see a grocery store on the list. Perhaps they seemed above the fray? Alas, there’s a first time for everything. The second half of October’s list of restaurant inspections is short but unique, I would argue. Included

are a grocery store, a convenience store and some hallowed Jayhawk ground. Twice each month, I take a look at inspection results and list every place either listed out of compliance or with 10 or more code violations.
Full reports are available online at agriculture.ks.gov. There, you can find details about specific violations, which can vary greatly. Noncritical citations include unlabeled products, improperly stored cleaning materials, minor plumbing issues and more. Critical violations include cross-contamination of raw and cooked foods, insect and rodent issues, unclean food preparation areas and more. Some violations may be corrected during the inspection, while others take longer to fix and require follow-up inspections. All businesses, even those listed out of
compliance, met the basic requirements to safely remain open, unless otherwise noted. With this regular report, I try to provide basic information about food inspections in Douglas County. But because of the sheer volume of inspections, it’s difficult to offer detailed information about each establishment.

An earlier investigation concluded that although her actions may have been improper, they did not warrant criminal charges. Democrats and many others have criticized Comey for publicly discussing the new investigation because at the time, the FBI did not have a search warrant to examine the emails and it was not known whether any of them were to or from Clinton, or
whether any of them contained classified information. The POLITICO/ Morning Consult poll taken after Comey’s announcement found Clinton still leading Trump nationally, 42-39 percent. A survey of Kansas voters released over the weekend that was conducted in September and early October found Trump ahead in the Sunflower State, 47-39 percent.

Bond issue Price will be key factor in effort to renovate the Lawrence school district’s secondary schools.
I
t’s good to see the Lawrence school district making progress on a possible bond issue to address the district’s six secondary schools. The renovations are needed, especially at Lawrence High School. But it is important to remember that the success of a bond issue election, which could come before school district voters in April, is likely to come down to the price tag and impact on residents’ taxes. Estimates are that the district could issue approximately $50 million in bonds without having to raise taxes. The district’s bond and interest property tax rate has been falling for several years, and the district was able to decrease its property tax rate by 3.165 mills for the 2016-17 school year budget. In 2013, the district began work on a $92 million bond issue that funded widespread improvements, mostly at the district’s 14 elementary schools. Most of those projects have wrapped up, freeing the district to focus on secondary school improvements. Preliminary plans that Lawrence school board members reviewed last week called for $72 million in funds for the secondary schools. Projects included roof repairs and replacements at all secondary schools, an expanded kitchen and overall classroom space at Lawrence High School, the transformation of Free State High School’s library into an “innovation commons,” the addition of new LGBTQfriendly locker rooms and rest rooms in both high schools and middle schools and a reduction in lockers in Lawrence’s middle schools. In developing the plans, district leaders focused specifically on LHS, engaging with a steering committee to identify the 62-year-old building’s most pressing needs. After touring newer buildings in the area, it became clear to district officials that LHS needed to increase its classroom size. Gould Evans, the architect on the project, is proposing 293,000 square feet of classroom renovations at Lawrence High, the biggest and costliest part of the renovations. The school board is expected to hear another presentation and vote on whether to proceed with the bond issue, perhaps before the end of the year. There is much to like in the preliminary plans. Much of the work, particularly classroom expansions at Lawrence High, is sorely needed. But the key for district officials remains working to keep costs down and the burden on taxpayers as minimal as possible.

Trump allergic to history, democracy Living in Philadelphia, only blocks from Independence Hall, reminds me of Americans’ astonishing good luck in our founding fathers, and in the institutions they devised. My awareness is magnified by travel to countries where people struggle for a fraction of the rights we take for granted. So is it really possible that we’re en route to squandering this unique heritage? Could a majority of voters possibly choose a man who demeans our constitutional system in language that sounds as if it came from the Kremlin? Can a man who encourages racism, sexism, and religious intolerance (including anti-Semitism) become the president of the world’s foremost democracy? I still believe that our institutions are stronger than they seem at the moment — and that Donald Trump will be defeated. Hillary Clinton’s email problems are small beer compared with the risk Trump presents to our republic and to our security. (And FBI Director James Comey’s latest cryptic statement about newly discovered emails, coming only days before the election, smells of partisan politics.) But Americans will have to reckon with the damage Trump has done no matter who wins. The threat to our system is more obvious if Trump is victorious. His version of democracy — his threats to pursue judges and media he dislikes and to jail Clinton if he wins — is more in tune with Vladimir Putin than Thomas Jefferson. Trump constantly praises the Kremlin czar as a “strong leader.” Envying Putin’s power to act without limits, the Donald says he sees no need to consult anyone but himself
Trudy Rubin
“

Hillary Clinton’s email problems are small beer compared with the risk Trump presents to our republic and to our security.” on foreign policy, because he knows best about everything — including nukes. What is the Putinesque style of leadership that Trump so admires? The Russian leader runs a system described as “managed democracy.” This means the president ignores a tamed parliament, strong-arms the judiciary, jails opponents, and silences any critical press. Trump has taken note. Example: You sense the Donald’s instincts toward critical media when he urges fans to attack them, or proposes unconstitutional libel laws to bankrupt them. Or when his social-media adviser threatens Fox News’ Megyn Kelly for her slapdown of Newt Gingrich’s disgusting sexist remarks to her on air. Mercifully, the Donald would not have the full powers of a Putin. True, he has pledged to bring lawsuits against judges and newspapers, but the courts would no doubt dismiss them as unconstitutional. That is, until the Donald manages to pack the Supreme Court.
Moreover, Trump’s vindictiveness toward opponents will further damage a political system already corroded by ugly partisanship. No student of history, Trump seems unaware of the tough political compromises that our founding founders had to make to reach consensus on the Constitution. He says he’s not a reader, so he’s probably never perused Catherine Drinker Bowen’s Miracle at Philadelphia (or similar academic studies), which describes this so well. Those grand bargains in Philly foretold the kind of political deals still needed to make our government function. But the kind of compromises that produced our founding document would be anathema to Trump’s GOP. When the Donald was asked by biographer Michael D’Antonio whether he examined history to better understand the present, his lack of interest was evident. “I don’t like talking about the past,” he said. “It’s all about the present and the future.” With apologies to George Santayana, those who ignore the past will doom our nation to disaster. A Clinton win would, at least, check the direct Trump threat to democracy. But it won’t halt the political maelstrom his campaign has already unleashed. Clinton understands the miracle in Philadelphia. She wants to reach out to supporters of Trump who are legitimately upset by the economic changes wreaked by technology and the globalization of trade. She has also pledged to consult GOP legislators to try to end the gridlock that has paralyzed the government. Given her reputation in the Senate, she is likely to be much better at such
bipartisan efforts than was President Obama. Yet Trump (echoed by Tea Party Republicans) has vehemently rejected bipartisan outreach. Contrary to any candidate in memory, the Donald attacks the credibility of our election system, insisting, without evidence, that it is rigged against him. If he loses, he will no doubt urge his followers to reject the results. A possible Trump TV network, alongside alt-right pro-Trump social media, will whip up protests against a Clinton presidency and call for her impeachment. And Trump’s hint to Second Amendment fanatics to take out Clinton invites an assassination attempt. Equally shameful, GOP stalwarts are already pledging to continue paralyzing Congress if Clinton is elected. Sen. John McCain, whom Trump viciously insulted, has vowed that Republicans will block any Supreme Court nomination made by a President Clinton. That would mean four more years of an eightjustice court, effectively destroying our constitutional system of checks and balances. A frozen system will spark more discontent, which Trump followers will blame on Clinton and their ethnic enemies. If Trump loses, the entire Congress should be required to take a field trip to Independence Hall to remind it of the compromises on which our country was based, with a special mandatory session for Tea Party diehards. I know I’m dreaming. Yet, unless the Trumpsters learn to respect America’s history and its founders, they will take our democracy down. — Trudy Rubin is a columnist for the Philadelphia Inquirer.

From the Lawrence Daily JournalWorld for Nov. 1, 1916: l “Lewis Weidlein, an employee years of the Lawrence Transfer and storago age Company, sustained a broken IN 1916 leg this morning when a piano he was helping move from the Pendleton building on Massachusetts street, upset and pinned him underneath. The fracture was between the knee and ankle. The piano had been stored in the room formerly used for a movie show and was being moved.” l “Residents in the 1100, 1200 and 1300 blocks on Rhode Island street report considerable property damage as the result of Hallowe’en pranks.”
TODAY IN HISTORY On Nov. 1, 1968, the Motion Picture Association of America unveiled its new voluntary film rating system: G for general, M for mature (later changed to GP, then PG), R for restricted and X (later changed to NC-17) for adults only. l In 1936, in a speech in Milan, Italy, Benito Mussolini described the alliance between his country and Nazi Germany as an “axis” running between Rome and Berlin.

The troubling resurgence of anti-Semitism in America Chicago Tribune
Anti-Semitism is one of those vicious maladies that ought to be close to eradication, like polio. But it turns out it’s more like crabgrass: You can never eliminate it entirely, and given half a chance, it will spread rapidly. The evidence of that depressing reality is abundant lately. “There’s a certain atmosphere in the country that’s disturbing,” says Ken Jacobson, deputy national director of the Anti-Defamation League, which combats this and other types of bigotry. “There is a new legitimacy to saying things that were beyond the pale.” Hmm. Where could that come from? Well, Donald Trump recently accused Hillary Clinton of meeting “in secret with international banks to plot the destruction of U.S. sovereignty in order to enrich these global financial powers, her special interest friends and her donors” — language that echoes the perennial conspiracy theories of
Nazis and other anti-Semites. “Is it just me or is much of this Trump speech Jew-baiting?” tweeted Julia Ioffe, one of many Jewish journalists who have been the target of vicious anti-Semitic slurs and threats on Twitter. Some may wonder if she’s picking up signals that aren’t there. But apparently not. Openly neo-Nazi groups are getting the same message. Andrew Anglin, editor of a far-right website, told the Los Angeles Times, “Virtually every alt-right Nazi I know is volunteering for the Trump campaign.” Anti-Semitism fits comfortably within the anti-immigrant, Islamophobic appeal of a candidate who said an Americanborn judge couldn’t be fair to Trump because he is “of Mexican heritage.” And he’s fueled it, intentionally or not, with such antics as sharing tweets from neo-Nazi accounts, as well as one tweet of his own that called Clinton “the most corrupt candidate ever,” with that phrase embedded in a six-
pointed star. Is anyone surprised when former Ku Klux Klan leader David Duke exults, “Thank God Trump has emerged and embraced my issues”? But this phenomenon is not a monopoly of the alt-right. It’s also detectable on the left, particularly on university campuses, where campaigns to get schools to disinvest from companies that operate in Israel often end up stimulating hostility toward Jews. Last year, an undergraduate running for the Stanford student senate asked for the endorsement of the Students of Color Coalition. But when members of the group interviewed her, she said, they asked how her Jewish identity would affect her decisions — a question she interpreted as anti-Semitic. The Stanford Israel Association said some student groups have refused to cosponsor events with it. A recent study by the Amcha Initiative found that antiSemitic incidents on campus increased by 45 percent in the
first six months of 2016 and seemed to be connected to the “boycott, divestment and sanctions campaign” against Israel. The evidence showed that “anti-Semitism was twice as likely to occur on campuses where BDS was present” and “eight times more likely to occur on campuses with at least one active anti-Zionist student group.” A survey by scholars at Brandeis University found that Northwestern is one of several universities “where the majority of Jewish students perceive a hostile environment toward Israel, and over one-quarter perceive a general environment of hostility toward Jews on their campus.” At the University of Chicago, Amhca reported 14 cases, up from two in the first six months of 2015. The good news is that antiSemitism is the toxic superstition of a shrinking minority. Since 1992, a 2013 poll found, the share of Americans expressing such attitudes has fallen from 20 percent to 12 percent, the lowest figure on
record. Those younger than 39, it showed, are “remarkably free of prejudicial views.” But anyone acquainted with history knows that prejudice can wax as well as wane. Modern social media gives more outlets to bigots who once had none. Visibility can promote the disease. So vigilance is needed now as much as ever. In the effort to combat anti-Semitism, no victory is permanent, and every generation has to take up the challenge.

Hesston (ap) — Authorities in central Kansas’ Harvey County say three people have been found shot to death outside a rural home, and investigators located an unharmed 18-month-old child inside. Sheriff Townsend Walton says the bodies were found Sunday night near Hesston after a passing motorist reported seeing bodies on the home’s driveway. Walton says he believes the shootings happened earlier that day.

The Kansas Department of Transportation announced Monday that construction of planned alterations at the East 1200 Road intersection on Kansas Highway 10 will start next week. Weather permitting, the $80,000 project will start at 9 a.m. Nov. 7 and is to be finished by Nov. 18. East 1200 Road access to and from K-10 will be closed during construction, but KDOT anticipates “little or no impact” to K-10 traffic from the work, a KDOT news release said. In June, KDOT announced it would convert the East 1200 Road/K-10 intersection to a right-on, right-off configuration, which allows no traffic maneuvers across the highway’s center line. East 1200 Road becomes Kasold Drive about a half-mile to the north at 31st Street in Lawrence. The configuration is designed to decrease
the risk of T-bone crashes with the anticipated doubling of traffic at the intersection when the South Lawrence Trafficway opens in November. KDOT agreed to the right-in, right-off configurations in June in response to public protests to its earlier proposal to close all K-10 access from East 1200 Road.

Email case puts heat on FBI chief Comey faces scathing political storm for Clinton inquiry so close to election
Kevin Johnson USA TODAY
In just four days, the man with the unassailable standing as director of the nation’s most powerful law enforcement agency, has become the target of unrelenting rebuke by the people who once celebrated James Comey’s appointment three years ago to lead the FBI. Perhaps most damaging so far was the criticism leveled by nearly 100 former Justice DepartWASHINGTON
ment officials who characterized the director’s decision to notify Congress of a new review of emails that could be related to the previously closed Hillary Clinton inquiry as nothing short of “astonishing” so close to a presidential election. “We cannot recall a prior instance where a senior Justice Department official — Republican or Democrat — has, on the eve of a major election, issued a public statement where the mere disclosure of information may impact the election’s outcome,’’ the for-

FBI Director James Comey
mer officials, including former attorney general Eric Holder, wrote. The scathing public evaluation of Comey’s decision, which also defied long-standing Justice Department policy not to take actions in advance of an election that might appear to interfere with its outcome, threatens to cast a permanent shadow on the remaining seven years of the director’s term, some current and former government officials said. Rep. Elijah Cummings, the ranking Democrat on the House
Oversight and Government Reform Committee who has been one of Comey’s most vocal advocates, expressed deep concerns that the FBI’s institutional integrity hung in the balance. “I have great personal respect for Director Comey, and I sincerely believe that he is a man of integrity, independence, and good intentions, but I have grave concerns that the credibility of the FBI could be damaged in immeasurable ways,” Cummings said. v STORY CONTINUES ON 2B

HILLARY CLINTON, BY ANDREW HARNIK, AP
After nearly 600 days of the presidential campaign, many Americans have just had enough USA TODAY Network If all you wanted to do was kick back in Fort Myers, Fla., and watch game four of the World Series, good luck. Twenty-two minutes into the pre-game show, a Donald Trump ad promised to lower health care costs. Twelve minutes later, a Hillary Clinton spot showed Trump mocking a disabled reporter. And then, deep into the game, another Clinton ad likened Trump to famous bullies from movies such as Back to the Future and The Karate Kid. Americans have had it. It might seem funny — and heaven knows comedians and political cartoonists have had a field day with it — but election exhaustion is real. It appears to have shown up in everything from psychiatrists’ couches to
the Dow Jones Industrial Average. A Pew Research Center survey found that about six-in-ten Americans felt exhausted by the amount of election coverage — and that was way back in early summer, before Donald Trump’s “Access Hollywood” tape and Anthony Weiner’s sexting further complicated things. The singer Sheryl Crow started a Change.org petition to shorten the election cycle. “By the time Americans go to the polls on November 8th, this Presidential campaign will have run over 600 days, kicking off with Ted Cruz’s announcement in March of 2015,” the petition says. More than 55,000 people have signed on, and stars Bette Midler and Courteney Cox have tweeted their support. v STORY CONTINUES ON 2B

17 killed as Chicago sees deadliest weekend of the year City’s murder rate is skyrocketing Aamer Madhani @AamerISmad USA TODAY
At least 17 people were killed and more than 40 others were injured in shootings since Friday in the nation’s third-largest city, marking the deadliest weekend in what has been the city’s most violent year in more than a decade. There’s already been more than 600 homicides in Chicago CHICAGO
this year. The city is tallying murders at a rate not seen since the late 1990s in the midst of violence fueled by the crack cocaine epidemic. Police and Mayor Rahm Emanuel have blamed the current spike in street violence on increased gang activity and gun laws that they say aren’t strong enough to deter convicted felons from carrying and using weapons. The vast majority of the murders have occurred in predominantly African-American neighborhoods on the city’s South and West sides. “These violent gun offenders are clearly giving us the message
that they just don’t care about the rest of the city of Chicago,” Chicago Police Superintendent Eddie Johnson told reporters Monday. “To be quite frank, I’m sick of it, and I know the people in the communities are tired of it. That’s why we have to do a better job of holding those individuals accountable.” Among the victims of the weekend violence were 17-yearold twins Edward and Edwin Bryant who were killed early Sunday in an apparent drive-by shooting in the city’s Old Town neighborhood. Johnson said the shooting was possibly gang-related. The brothers were not documented

gang members but were with others who did have gang affiliations. No one was in custody for the double homicide, but police have video footage of the incident that they hope will lead detectives to assailants. The violent stretch marks the deadliest weekend Chicago has seen since the 2014 Independence Day weekend, when 16 were killed and 66 were wounded. The city also saw 13 killed in shootings over Father’s Day weekend and Labor Day weekend this year. Chicago has recorded at least 2,800 shooting incidents through Oct. 16, according to police department data.

Lebanon’s new president Filters help weary backed by Iran, Hezbollah avoid election news Election of former general ends lengthy leaderless impasse Oren Dorell @orendorell USA TODAY
Lebanon’s lawmakers elected Michel Aoun, an lran-backed politician and former general, as president Monday, ending more than two years the country has gone without a leader. Aoun, 81, is an ally of Hezbollah, the Shiite militia and political party backed by Iran that has helped Syrian President Bashar Assad survive a five-year civil war on Lebanon’s border. The vote for Aoun, by 83 of parliament’s 127 members, shows Iran-backed political factions shouldered past those aligned with Saudi Arabia, replacing Syria as Lebanon’s chief foreign power broker. Aoun’s “victory now is a victory for Hezbollah and that alliance, and certainly a kind of black eye for Saudi Arabia,” said Paul Salem, vice president for policy and research at the Middle East Institute, a think tank in Washington. Saad Hariri, a pro-Western and Saudi-oriented politician, formally endorsed Aoun last week after failing to garner enough support for the presidency. In return, Aoun is expected to appoint Hariri prime minister. “It’s a power-sharing system,” Salem said. “In a way, the status quo will continue.” U.S. State Department spokesman John Kirby congratulated Lebanon on the election results. “This is a moment of opportunity, as Lebanon emerges from years of political impasse, to restore government functions and build a more stable and prosperous future for all Lebanese citizens,” he said in a statement. Asked later about Aoun’s support from Hezbollah, which the State Department has designated a terrorist organization, Kirby said, “Let’ see what decisions he makes, what kind of leadership he exudes as president.” The U.S. routinely assesses its foreign assistance programs “and we will do that with Lebanon go-

ing forward,” Kirby said. Aoun’s election drew immediate praise from a top adviser to Iran’s supreme leader Ali Khamenei. The adviser, Ali Akbar Velayati, described the choice as a victory for Iran and its allies in Lebanon, because the Lebanese president is “a very significant ring in the chain of the Islamic resistance,” according to Iran’s governmentowned Tasnim News Agency. Aoun, in his first speech after becoming president, pledged to fight corruption and protect Lebanon from the fires raging around it, referring to the Syrian civil war, according to the Associated
Press. He also promised to liberate contested territory under “Israeli occupation,” according to Hezbollah’s Al Manar-TV, apparently referring to territory Israel considers part of the Golan Heights conquered from Syria in 1967. Lebanon has been without a head of state since May 2014, when then-president Michel Suleiman’s six-year term expired. Since then, 45 sessions to elect a new leader have failed because of political infighting, the AP reported. Aoun, a French- and American-trained former military officer, is known affectionately in Lebanon as “The General.” He led the Lebanese Army during a years-long civil war against Syrian troops and Iranian-backed Hezbollah in the late 1980s. Aoun and his supporters lost, and he was forced into exile in 1991. A constant critic of Hezbollah and Syria’s then-president Hafez Assad, Aoun returned to Lebanon in 2005 after the assassination of then-prime minister Rafiq Hariri. U.N. investigators blamed the murder on Hezbollah and Syria, which occupied Lebanon at the time. Syria was subsequently forced by international pressure to withdraw from the country. But Aoun later reconciled with Hezbollah and visited Tehran.
Timing of email inquiry criticized v CONTINUED FROM 1B
The congressman’s statement is extraordinary given that this summer he was lauding the director for, in part, Comey’s defense of his decision not to recommend criminal charges against Clinton and others over their handling of classified information. “I don’t know whether your family is watching this,” Cummings told Comey during an appearance before the House panel in July, “but I hope that they are as proud of you as I am.” Yet the gusting political forces inextricably linked to the email inquiry and Comey’s role in it, some suggest, thrusts him into a potentially untenable position, especially if Clinton wins. “If you are President-elect Clinton, how do you put this behind you, particularly if this whole matter is still pending when you take office?” said Ron Hosko, a former assistant FBI director and head of the bureau’s criminal division who supports Comey. “How can you have an effective relationship if every time you are in the same room together this shadow looms? “This is a fraught, perilous path that he’s on,” Hosko said. “I think he had to go into this with eyes wide open; I don’t think he took this lightly.” Aides have said that Comey considered counsel from senior executives and the top investigators assigned to the concluded Clinton email inquiry before making the decision. The bulk of the newly discovered material, more than 600,000 emails, however, weighed heavily on the director who had told a congressional panel in September that no substantial information

The risk of that information leaking, either before or after the election, was viewed to be more potentially damaging to government institutions than to acknowledge its existence last Friday. The potentially new emails, linked to top Clinton aide Huma Abedin, were found in early Octo-

ber during a search of a laptop she shared with her estranged husband, former New York congressman Anthony Weiner. The former lawmaker is the subject of separate FBI inquiry into his sexually charged communications with a 15-year-old girl. Federal investigators have since obtained a warrant to search through the Abedin emails to determine if they have any
bearing on the previous Clinton inquiry. It is unclear whether the review can be completed by Election Day next Tuesday, a process that has reunited many of the investigators who worked on the initial Clinton inquiry. While the new review involves a voluminous number of communications, an official familiar with the matter said authorities have not totally foreclosed the possibility that the task can be completed before Election Day. In letters to congressional leaders Monday, the Justice Department pledged that the review would be completed as “expeditiously as possible.” But some, including one former top Justice Department official, said that the management of the Clinton email investigation has been fraught since July, when Attorney General Loretta Lynch agreed to accept Comey’s recommendation on the case’s outcome. That decision followed the disclosure of Lynch’s impromptu meeting with former president Bill Clinton aboard her Justice Department aircraft while both were on the tarmac of the Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport.
JUSTIN SULLIVAN, GETTY IMAGES
Lynch has said the email case was not discussed during the meeting, but the appearance of a possible conflict prompted the decision to cede authority in the case to Comey. Lynch later signed off on Comey’s recommendation after his July announcement in which he also described the former secretary of State’s conduct as “extremely careless.” Last week, Lynch recommended against Comey’s notification to Congress regarding the newly discovered emails, but the FBI director, an official familiar with the matter said, felt compelled to act to correct previous congressional testimony indicating that no other information in the Clinton case was being reviewed. The former top Justice Department official, who asked not be identified because of his close relationship with some of the key players involved, said Lynch’s original decision to defer to Comey forced him to do something out of character for an FBI director: essentially, make a prosecutorial judgment, a decision that should rest with the attorney general or deputy attorney general.

According to the latest tally, which includes 303 companies, or 60% of the index, third-quarter profit growth for S&P 500 companies is now at +3.1%, according to earnings-tracker Thomson Reuters I/B/E/S. And while that single-digit growth rate isn’t resoundingly robust, it is a gift of sorts to investors, as profit growth has been negative four consecutive quarters.

GE, Baker Hughes to merge oil, gas businesses Nathan Bomey @NathanBomey USA TODAY
Manufacturing conglomerate General Electric will combine its oil-and-gas business with energy services provider Baker Hughes in a deal that structures the new publicly traded entity as a partnership jointly owned by each company’s shareholders. The deal comes nearly six months after Baker Hughes’ previous merger agreement with rival Halliburton collapsed after a
regulatory fight with the U.S. government. It also comes as GE seeks to remake itself as a company more narrowly focused on digital technology solutions, having already greatly reduced its GE Capital division and sold its appliance business. GE CEO Jeff Immelt revealed Monday the company is in discussion with potential buyers to sell its water products business, with annual earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization of $250 million to $350 million. Baker Hughes is still reeling
BLOOMBERG VIA GETTY IMAGES
from oil’s devastating slide below $30 per barrel earlier this year — despite a recent recovery to about $50 — which has led companies to seek consolidation opportuni-
ties to navigate the rough terrain. Baker Hughes’ revenue through the first nine quarters of 2016 fell 39.8% to $7.4 billion, compared with a year earlier, while its net loss widened from $936 million to $2.3 billion. GE and Baker Hughes said the new company would have $32 billion in annual revenue and employ about 70,000 people. The companies expect to achieve $1.6 billion in annual “synergies” — which typically include cost cuts and combined purchasing power — by 2020. The synergies amount to $1.2
billion in costs and $400 million in revenue opportunities, according to a presentation prepared for investors. The companies expect to complete the deal by mid-2017. Baker Hughes shares jumped 8.7% to $64.26 in premarket trading but the gains didn’t last. Shares dove 6.3% to close at $55.40. GE shares edged 0.4% lower to $29.10. With operations in more than 120 countries, the combined company will maintain dual headquarters in Houston and London.

MAKING WAVES So much for a quiet Halloween. After Hilary Duff was photographed at the Casamigos Halloween Party Friday in Beverly Hills with her boyfriend, trainer Jason Walsh, the couple were lambasted online for their costumes. Duff dressed as a Pilgrim while Walsh went as a Native American, sporting a feather headdress and red facepaint, a costume many social media users called insensitive. Duff and Walsh both took to social media Sunday to apologize.

Gibson, Garfield march on with ‘Hacksaw Ridge’ Director unveils his first project 10 years after controversy Bryan Alexander @BryAlexand USA TODAY
Andrew Garfield has an entirely unexpected reason why he thinks Mel Gibson is a great director. The guy is one heck of an onset chiropractor, Garfield explains, sitting next to his Hacksaw Ridge director in a suite at the Four Seasons. Gibson’s healing hands were a shockingly pleasant surprise to Garfield as he recuperated between scenes during the arduous shoot. “(Gibson) was like, ‘Sit down.’ So I sat. And he was like, ‘Just totally go limp.’ I was like, ‘Wait, what do you mean — wwwahhhhh?’ ” says Garfield, showing how Gibson manipulated his neck. “But he restarted the blood flow in my brain. ... He was amazing..” “It’s total trust,” Gibson says. The two needed complete trust for Hacksaw Ridge (in theaters nationwide Friday) based on the true story of Desmond Doss, the World World II Army medic who refused to carry a gun but singlehandedly saved 75 men in the LOS ANGELES
MARK ROGERS
Mel Gibson and Andrew Garfield turn a page with Ridge. bloody Battle of Okinawa. The film stakes are high. For Gibson, 60, Hacksaw Ridge represents his Hollywood return, the first time the Oscar-winning director has stepped behind the camera since 2006’s Apocalypto — after a public fall that began with his infamous drunken-driving arrest in Malibu, during which he hurled anti-Semitic slurs. Gibson realizes his actions created a public rift from which he may only now be recovering. He says being characterized as a bigot was unfair. “None of my actions bear that sort of reputation, before or since.
So it’s a pity, after 30 or 40 years of doing something, you get judged on one night. And then you spend the next 10 years suffering the scourges of perception,” Gibson says. “But it’s my fault for having (allowed) that perception. I fed the bullet to the gun.” As far as Gibson is concerned, it’s time to turn the page. “People are tired of petty grudges about nothing. About somebody having a nervous breakdown (after) double tequilas in the back of a police car,” says Gibson, now sober. “Regrettable. I’ve made my apologies, I’ve done my bit. Moved along.
“I’ve worked on myself a lot,” Gibson adds. “I’m a different person than I was back then. But the thing that remains the same is I think I could always tell a story.” Garfield, 33, says storytelling is the reason he sought out Gibson. The actor, too, has much riding on Hacksaw, along with his starring role in Martin Scorsese’s Silence (out Dec. 23 in New York and Los Angeles) — continuing his dramatic turn after two bigscreen outings as Spider-Man. “After the Spider-Man experience, I wrote a list of directors I would hold out for like a stubborn child. One was Martin Scorsese and one happened to be Mel,” Garfield says. “It’s insane this happened the way it did.” Both Gibson and Garfield are in the mix for best director and actor, and the “crowd-pleasing movie” could be a candidate for best picture, says Steve Pond, awards columnist for the TheWrap.com. The filmmakers received their first review when Hacksaw made its world premiere at September’s Venice Film Festival: a 10-minute standing ovation. “It wasn’t 10 minutes, it was 9 minutes and 45 seconds,” Gibson jokes before getting serious. “Jesus, I couldn’t have been more gratified to have that response. It shows I am on the right track.”

A woman’s terrible loss sets off a painful search for closure Emily Gray Tedrowe Special for USA TODAY
It’s impossible not to root for Shelby Richmond, the broken, goodhearted young woman at the center of Alice Hoffman’s poignant new novel, BOOK Faithful (Simon & REVIEW Schuster, 272 pp., eeeE out of four). As the widely beloved author of more than 25 novels, Hoffman exercises characteristic strengths — a wide cast of quirky, believable characters, sly humor and a clear love for the American teenager — in the story of how Shelby, having survived a tragic car accident that puts her high school best friend into an irreversible coma, decides to allow herself to live. But first, Shelby suffers: in the small Long Island community where everyone whispers about her; in the psychiatric hospital
passion, but all she wants is to be left alone.” Fleeing to Manhattan with her drug-dealer-turned-pharmacystudent boyfriend, Shelby ignores her agonized mother’s concerns and takes a menial job at a pet shop. And it’s here that Faithful takes off, filling anguished Shelby’s life with animals she can’t help but rescue and love, and a sassy older co-worker named Maravelle who quickly becomes a best friend. Each new chapter jumps forward in time, showing us Shelby’s enlarged world and her tentative steps toward life, which often turn out to be mistakes. Yet even when Shelby where she is brutally DEBORAH makes you wince — hurts a abused; and in her own FEINGOLD loved one, sleeps with the mind, filled with guilt Author wrong person, stands up to and remorse. Alice a violent bully — her snarky Why can’t she be dead, Hoffman charm and well-hidden and beautiful Helene, kindness draw you in. The breathing only because of a machine, be the survivor? novel’s big question asks how she Shelby’s self-hatred isolates her will come to terms with the from everyone in town: “They part she has played in Helene’s cluck at the skinny, bald girl in big tragedy, and Hoffman acutely boots. They think she wants com- renders both the day-by-day and
year-by-year elements of her struggle. A deep truth this story reveals is that finding closure after great loss is not a one-time deal; life grows around such wounds in small increments over time. A few plot points push the novel toward a cloying winsomeness — too many animal rescues, too much Chinese food delivery — but the high stakes of Shelby’s recovery cut through with redeeming sharpness. And while Hoffman is known for including elements of magic realism, here the repeated comparisons of Shelby’s story to a dark fairy tale can seem forced, unnecessary. By the end of Faithful, readers are completely on Shelby’s side as she makes a bold move toward her future. Before that happens, she needs to go home, and her brief interaction with Helene’s aging father, out raking his yard, is one of the novel’s finest. You’ll remember that scene, and Shelby’s courage, long after finishing the book. Emily Gray Tedrowe is the author of Blue Stars.

Dear Annie: Why do women think it’s OK to snoop through boyfriends’ phones or social media? It’s such an invasion of privacy. For background: I’m a guy in my late 20s. I’m trustworthy (I think). I’ve never cheated on a girlfriend. Yet a few women I’ve dated over the past few years have snooped. One read my emails when I left myself logged in on her computer. The other didn’t exactly snoop, but I noticed that she had been Googling my ex-girlfriend’s name. I want to date someone who is secure enough not to be jealous or suspicious. I was talking to a group of my female friends about this, and all except one admitted that they’ve snooped, too. Most said they know it’s bad, but one

Golfer John Daly star of ‘30 for 30’ “Grip it and rip it!” The “30 for 30” (7 p.m., ESPN) documentary “Hit It Hard” strikes a gold mine with its profile of professional golfer John Daly, an Arkansas good-ol’-boy and overnight sensation who careened through every sports movie story arc known to man. For the uninitiated, Daly was a slightly overweight guy with a goofy white-blond hairdo who wasn’t even supposed to play the PGA Championship at Crooked Stick in 1991. The sporting world watched slackjawed as he went on to dominate the tournament with booming drives and a gung-ho philosophy that won him the adoration of fans. Overnight, he broadened professional golf’s appeal from the country club to the Wal-Mart parking lot. And he grew a mullet, to boot! Highly recommended. The HBO drama “Westworld” has done a remarkable thing. It asks characters, and by extension, viewers, to actually empathize with “victims” of their virtual electronic fantasies. Set in a far off future, it speaks to a present day when millions of gamers enjoy the raping and pillaging strategies of “Grand Theft Auto” and so many other distractions. “Your Brain On Video Games” (8 p.m., Science, TVPG) discusses current studies about the effects of longterm immersion in the violent world of video games. Do they desensitize players, or offer a healthy substitute for actual asocial behavior? l “American Experience” (8 p.m., PBS, TV-PG, check local listings) presents “The Battle of Chosin,” one of the most celebrated chapters in the history of the Marine Corps, when 12,000 men of the First Marine Division, along with a few thousand Army soldiers, fought off a surprise onslaught by a massive force of Chinese soldiers in grim winter conditions. l Dan Rather hosts “The Rise of Trump Nation” (8 p.m., AXS), a look at the current campaign and the historical and cultural trends that brought American politics to its current state.

What’s normal? I haven’t dated in almost 10 years. Back when I was on the scene before, people weren’t all meeting each other through apps.

Suspect in Kansas bombing plot calls hearing ‘ridiculous’ By Roxana Hegeman Associated Press
W ichita — A man accused of plotting to bomb a western Kansas apartment complex where 120 Somali immigrants live told The Associated Press on Monday that federal prosecutors waited until 10 minutes before his detention hearing to share their evidence with his defense attorney. Patrick Stein called the AP from jail in response to a letter seeking comment. Stein declined to talk about the charges against him Stein until he talked with his attorney, but he derided the Oct. 21 proceeding as “a half trial/detention hearing,” laughing about it and calling it “ridiculous.” Assistant U.S. Attorney Anthony Mattivi presented during that hearing a thick packet of text messages, photographs and other material, reading some of the text exchanges in the courtroom. “We didn’t have any of that information that he laid out until 10 minutes before we went before the judge,” Stein told the AP. “That is how they are playing the game.” Jim Cross, spokesman for the U.S. attorney’s office, said in an email that prosecutors “worked to compile information as quickly as possible. It was provided to the defendants’ attorneys as soon as it was available.” Prosecutors allege that Stein, 47, Gavin Wright, 51, and Curtis Allen, 49, planned to attack the apartment complex, which contained a mosque in one of the units, the day after the
November election. All three men have pleaded not guilty. Stein said that although he would like to give his side of the story, he needs to discuss with his attorney whether doing so would hinder his defense. “I can’t afford that — not when my life is on the line,” he said. Stein was the only one of the three defendants who tried to get released pending trial, but U.S. Magistrate Judge Gwynne Birzer denied his request following a detention hearing in which she told him that he posed a “grave danger” to the community. Mattivi read during that hearing Stein’s text messages with an undercover FBI agent in which Stein, using the screen name Orkin Man, referred to Somali immigrants as “cockroaches” and expressed his belief that the government is run by a terrorist organization. Prosecutors contend Stein was the leader of a militia group called The Crusaders, though his attorney, Ed Robinson, denied during the hearing that his client even knows of such a group. Robinson provided a glimpse into the unfolding defense strategy when he told the magistrate judge that the three men accused were only preparing to defend themselves in the event of “massive social upheaval” as they accumulated firearms and ammunition. Stein said he was “hanging in there” but expressed concern about his family. “They don’t deserve anything of what they have been getting,” he said.
Elections official says ballot selfies are legal in Kansas after all Topeka (ap) — An official with the Kansas secretary of state’s office says it has determined that ballot selfies are legal in the state after all. Elections Director Bryan Caskey said Monday that the office has re-examined a state law that makes it a felony to disclose a ballot’s contents and concluded it applies to election officials, but not voters themselves. Ballot selfies are illegal
in some states. Federal judges have struck down bans in Indiana and New Hampshire. A secretary of state’s office spokeswoman said earlier this month that taking selfies at a polling place is legal but “a picture of the actual ballot violates Kansas law.” Caskey said repeated questions led the secretary of state’s office to further review the law. He says, “There’s not a law that prohibits it.”

CHARLES MERRELL "CHUCK" BERG Charles Merrell ("Chuck") Berg, 75, died July 26, 2016 at Lawrence Memorial Hospital. A memorial celebration will be held Sunday, November 20th at 2pm, at the Cider Gallery, 810 Pennsylvania Street, Lawrence, KS 66044. He was born to Richard Charles and Frederica Merrell Berg on July 1, 1941. Growing up, he lived in Towson, MD, Springfield, MA, and Yonkers, NY. As a teen in New York, he enjoyed working as a page at Rockefeller Center, and as a band member of the NBC Swing Kings. After studying music for a year at CUNY (Potsdam), he enlisted in the Army. Following Basic Training at Fort Leonard Wood (MO), he served three years with the Army Security Agency in Japan (196164). Upon discharge he enrolled at the University of Kansas, where he met a girl fellow student Beth Noe, from Holton, (KS) – and immediately knew he'd spend the rest of his life with her! She knew it too! They married between semesters on Kansas Day, 1966. Deepest gratitude to the Powers That Be, and every lucky star, for the fabulous fifty years Chuck and Beth got to share side by side! After Chuck completed his studies (Journalism and Radio / TV/ Film), the couple moved to Iowa City, (IA), where Chuck completed his Ph.D. in Film Studies from the University of Iowa (1973). While there, he and Beth were blessed with one of their finest gifts ever: Nathan Charles Berg! The family moved to NYC (197277) where Chuck was a faculty member at Queens College, and also hosted a jazz radio show. He became a noted jazz and arts journalist, writing for Downbeat Magazine, Jazz Times, Coda, the Lawrence JournalWorld, the Topeka Capital Journal and the Kansas City Star. In 1977, he joined the faculty at the University of Kansas where he greatly enjoyed teaching and serving for the next 39 years, capping his career as Professor Emeritus, Department of Film and Media Studies. He chaired the Department of Theatre and Film 20052007. He served nationally in a variety of elected and editorial positions and was recognized with numerous awards. Two he especially cherished were the Mortar Board Outstanding Educator Award and the Kemper Fellowship for Teaching Excellence. A wellregarded jazz saxophonist and flutist, he was a Grammyvoting member of the National Association of Recording Arts and Sciences. His career was complicated by illness, but he was able to keep teaching / playing / writing, thanks in huge part to the incomparable
DONALD GENE MCDOW
Dr. Matthew Stein and his dedicated team, with muchappreciated assistance from the Douglas County Visiting Nurses Association. Chuck loved Lawrence, and K.U., and Kansas, and was pleased to volunteer and serve each in numerous and varied capacities over the decades. He felt immense gratitude for the many joys in his life, and he said so daily. But his cup especially runneth over when it came to his two dear wonderful grandsons; and all of his his beloved family, treasured friends, colleagues and students near and far, including all of the magnificent musicians with whom he got to play through the years! He adored his pups, and felt privileged to be a member of their pack! Chuck was deeply moved by the beauty and power of music. And the art and magic of film. He delighted in the promise and possibilities of words. Add in books, theatre, art, family jams, sports, drives to the lake, travels, John Douglas, The Merc and the garden on the deck, and Chuck was often heard to say, "Life is good!" He was preceded in death by his parents, his sister Diana, his brothers Bob and Brian, and pack members Ralph, Charlie, Dexter and Sam I Am. He is survived by his wife Beth, of the home; his son Nathan Charles (and wife, Yuki Watanabe); the applesof hiseye grandsons, Calvin Kei Watanabe Berg and En Berg Watanabe (all of Dunedin, New Zealand); brothers Kris Berg (and wife Carolyn), Omaha, NE, Steve Berg (and wife Kerstin), Fulda, Germany; nephews Eric Berg (and wife Ronnie), Steve Berg (and wife Suzie), Jay Harris (and wife Maureen); nieces Chrissie Pebley, Bridget Berg, Lilly Berg, Sara B.

Advance care planning is about doing what you can do to ensure that the health care treatment you may receive is consistent with your wishes and preferences should you be unable to make your own decisions or speak for yourself. There are several written documents available to express wishes and/ or appoint a surrogate decision maker if we are unable to make our own decisions. Equally important is making sure that our surrogate knows and
understands our desires and preferences as we near the end of life.

Take precautions; the season for overeating is here By Joanna Hlavacek jhlavacek@ljworld.com
With Halloween officially behind us and Thanksgiving on its way, now might be a good time to start strategizing for the long, temptation-laden holiday season ahead. Because nothing can derail a well-meaning dieter quite like Thanksgiving, which each year leads the average American to consume more than 4,500 calories in one meal, according to the Calorie Control Council and registered dietician Rachel Levy. Food for thought: That’s more than twice the suggested daily calorie allotment recommended by health professionals. “If you’re on a longterm diet, you don’t want to set yourself up for failure by trying to continue on the path of weight loss over the holidays,” says Levy, who also supervises the Lawrence-Douglas County Health Department’s WIC program. Instead, Levy recommends aiming for weight maintenance, not loss, from now to New Year’s. Here, the healthy-eating
expert shares her tips for navigating the holiday season with common sense — and a few sensible indulgences along the way. On Thanksgiving, while the big meal hasn’t yet hit the table, try rounding up the family for a pre-dinner walk. “That’s a great way to enjoy some good conversation with family, but also that exercise helps to burn calories before taking in that Thanksgiving dinner,” Levy says. One additional benefit of aerobic exercise before eating is its ability to curb appetite, she adds. You can further apply this strategy by keeping healthy hors d’oeuvres on hand while the turkey’s still roasting. Levy suggests the always-classic shrimp cocktail, fruit skewers or crudité platters with low-fat dips — try swapping out mayonnaise and sour cream for Greek yogurt, which is lower in calories and higher in protein than its fattier alternatives, helping to fill you up before the main event, she says. Those 4,500 calories mentioned before, Levy

stresses, aren’t just from the high-calorie desserts we often associate with holiday meals. “It’s also from people taking second and third helpings of foods they think are healthy,” she says. (We’re looking at you, green bean casserole.) There’s no crime in enjoying yourself, but try to exercise a little mindfulness when it comes to fill-
ing up on extra servings. First, opt for a smaller plate, if you can, before loading it with Thanksgiving goodness. Then, “Once you finish all the food on your plate … make sure to wait at least 10 minutes before you grab that second plateful,” Levy advises. Desserts, of course, can be a huge source of temptation for those looking
to watch their waistlines during the holidays. A lot of families will be serving up pumpkin cheesecakes and similarly highfat, high-calorie treats for their festive dinners, Levy recognizes. A healthier option that you might already have in mind is the classic pumpkin pie, which, compared with its holiday-favorite cousin the pecan pie, is lower in calories and chock-full of good-foryou fiber and beta carotene. Levy’s mother, she recalls, would bake an even healthier alternative each year, doing away with the crust completely and using the recipe on the pumpkin filling’s can as a guide, adding evaporated milk for sweetness and half the suggested amount of sugar. Levy calls the creation “pumpkin pudding,” which she says can easily be recreated by baking the dish at the same temperature “as if you were making a pie” and then adding a dollop of light whipped topping once cooled and ready to eat. You can also lighten up desserts by substituting

some of the margarine or butter involved with apple sauce or pureed fruit, she suggests. Start with a small portion of substitute at first, she says, before gradually increasing, if needed, to taste. Above all, be smart and try to enjoy the holidays, Levy says. After all, they’re only here once a year. “One thing I’d like to add, too, is that it’s OK to have your favorite food over the holidays if there’s a particular food that you’re craving,” Levy says. “You can have that, but make sure to have it in a healthy portion.” If you’ve made a special Christmastime treat like a Buche de Noel, for instance, try freezing leftovers in single-serving portions. That way, Levy says, “you’re not tempted to go eat the whole thing.” Because, even if Yulelog cakes are a once-a-year deal, there’s no reason you can’t enjoy an occasional slice while you’re waiting for next Christmas.

PROVIDING HOSPICE CARE SINCE 1981
If you are very hard of hearing, you know all too well there’s a long way from hearing sounds to making sense of them. Even with a “powerful” hearing aid, critical high frequency sounds are often lost, making it hard to catch the meaning. Developed for people with severe to profound hearing loss, Oticon Dynamo hearing aids fill in the missing speech details so that you understand more and can stay in the conversation. Thanks to Oticon’s innovative Speech Rescue™ technology, Dynamo takes the high frequencies that often go lost – such as ‘s’ and ‘th’ sounds – and moves them to a lower frequency range that you can hear. As a result, your brain gets access to the full spectrum of sounds, rescuing speech cues that would otherwise be lost and giving you a more complete sound experience.

Jayhawks’ Jackson takes shot at bettering his shot Introduce a negative and shoot it down to ingratiate yourself with the famous subject you are interviewing. It’s a tactic that far too many sportswriters use, perhaps out of insecurity, maybe because they think it will make the subject believe they are on his or her side. Whatever the motivation, it’s a dead-end device. The only ones truly on an Jackson athlete’s side are his or her teammates and coaches. The rest of us are on the outside looking in, treated to entertainment that can trigger goosebumps and/or cringes. Kansas freshman basketball player Josh Jackson did not get drawn into such silliness during a Big 12 Media Day that he handled so well simply because he naturally handles people so well. “How much do you hate this?” one reporter asked him of Media Day. Why would a competitive person hate something that he does so well? If Jackson hated it, even Leonardo DiCaprio would benefit from taking acting lessons from the Detroit native. “Why are people always asking you about your shot?” asked another. “You averaged 27 points last year. There must not be anything wrong with your shot if you can average 27 points, right?” Self-confident and grounded, Jackson’s answer revealed how well equipped he is to prevent the impending onslaught of fawning worship from turning him into a conceited snob. “I think my mechanics could get a lot better, confidence in my shot could get a lot better,” Jackson said. “Confidence is a huge factor.” In goes the question, out comes the truth. Much appreciated. He instantly dissolves the sugar that coats such questions. Jackson answered everything that came his way and when the sea parted for a second, I revisited his shot. Kansas coach Bill Self had said a few weeks ago that the last thing Jackson needs is to have myriad voices telling him how to change his shot and that one person and one alone would work with Jackson on it.

Mason, Jayhawks ready to start journey By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com
Stoic as ever, Kansas senior Frank Mason III cracked the slightest smile Monday afternoon inside the Allen Fieldhouse media room when asked if today, after all those years and games as a Jayhawk, he still gets butterflies before the start of a season. “That’s old news,” Mason declared. “I don’t get nervous.” The rest of Mason’s interview provided plenty of support for exactly where
“
That’s old news. I don’t get nervous.”
— KU senior Frank Mason III, on whether he gets butterflies before the start of the season the senior point guard’s mind was entering tonight’s exhibition opener at 7 p.m. against Washburn in Allen Fieldhouse. Instead of worrying about the crowd, the lights, yetto-be-recorded statistics or even his new hairdo, Mason projected the persona of a man with much bigger things on his mind.
Maybe it’s the fact that beginning in 10 days, thirdranked Kansas will open the season for real against No. 11 Indiana (Armed Forces Classic in Honolulu) and No. 1 Duke (Champions Classic in New York) just four days apart. There will be no regular-season tune-up before those monster showdowns. Or maybe it’s the fact that
now that he’s a veteran and one of the unquestioned leaders of this Kansas team, Mason knows that it’s important for him to set the proper example for his teammates, new and old, so that the Jayhawks can capitalize on all of the potential they have during the upcoming season. “In the past years, we’ve taken every exhibition game serious, but with those two (Indiana and Duke) being the first two games, we want to play (our exhibitions) like we would play against them,”

KANSAS FOOTBALL COACH DAVID BEATY, LEFT, and Oklahoma coach Bob Stoops > KEEGAN, 3D shake hands following the Sooners’ 56-3 victory on Saturday in Norman, Okla.
The road, as anyone who keeps up with University of Kansas football would tell you, can be cruel to a struggling program. So can timing. The Jayhawks, coming off their seventh straight loss of the year and 42nd consecutive setback outside of Lawrence, travel this week to No. 14 West Virginia. Oh, and the Mountaineers just lost Saturday for the first time this season, at Oklahoma State. KU head coach David Beaty indicated Monday he suspects WVU (6-1 overall,
3-1 Big 12) didn’t take the setback well. “Form our standpoint, it’s gonna really be about us. It really is,” Beaty added. “We’ve gotta work so hard at being better at what we do before we can ever focus on anyone else. Our execution has got to continue to improve. To say that we were frustrated with that and our production offensively (two days earlier in a 56-3 loss at Oklahoma) is an understatement. We have to be better from an execution standpoint.” In road games this fall, KU (1-7, 0-5) has suffered

Chiefs defend decision to allow Smith to return By Dave Skretta AP Sports Writer
Smith
Kansas City, Mo. — The Kansas City Chiefs defended their treatment of Alex Smith after he twice had his head slammed into the turf in Indianapolis, saying Monday that their quarterback passed con-
cussion tests on the sideline and in the locker room after both of the hits. Chiefs trainer Rick Burkholder also said team physicians and an independent neurologist do not believe that Smith sustained a concussion. Still, he will be evaluated by another neurologist in
Kansas City this week before determining whether he can play against Jacksonville on Sunday. “It’s certainly possible,” Burkholder said Monday. “We’ll go through the return-to-play protocol and see where he’s at it. But yes, it’s possible.” Smith was hurt initially
when he was hit while sliding in the first quarter Sunday, and Nick Foles took over for about a quarter while Smith went through the protocol. He returned to the game and was hit again on a slide in the second half, and that’s when the Chiefs decided he would not return. Smith isn’t the only Chiefs
player dealing with injury issues. Running back Spencer Ware did not return to the Colts game after sustaining a concussion — Burkholder said he did not sufficiently pass the same tests that Smith went through. And at this point, it appears unlikely Ware will be available against the Jaguars.

COMMENTARY
Bryant HR stirs Cubs comeback talk: ‘Why not us?’
SPORTS ON TV TODAY
By Jim Litke AP Sports Columnist
Chicago (ap) — Success was practically stamped on Kris Bryant’s DNA. Long and lean, the son of a former minor leaguer was on almost everybody’s AllAmerica team in high school and college and validated that promise quickly by grabbing the National League Rookie of the Year trophy last season at 23. This season, Bryant is the favorite to add the NL MVP award to a growing collection of hardware. That’s what made his struggles from the start of this World Series — an .071 batting average and a pair of throwing errors at third base in the same inning of Game 4 — so confounding. “Obviously, I haven’t been swinging the bat too great,” Bryant said, “so it was nice to get one to kind of help us all out.” His fourth-inning home run off starter Trevor Bauer awakened a hibernating Cubs offense and helped deliver a 3-2 win Sunday night that sent the Series back to Cleveland for Game 6 on Tuesday with the Indians holding a suddenly slippery 3-2 edge. For all the things Bryant has soaked up about baseball, history is low on that list. So when he was asked whether the Cubs could join the short inventory of teams that came back from a 3-1 Series deficit to win, chances were good he couldn’t name even one. That hardly dented his confidence. “Why not us?” Bryant asked, the hint of a smile creasing his lips. “I feel like we play our best with our backs up against the wall. ... Hopefully we can get out there and win Game 6, because you never know what can happen in a Game 7.” No, but with history as a guide, we can hazard a good guess about the challenge in climbing out of a 3-1 hole. Only five teams have turned the trick in a best-of-seven Series, the last one being the 1985 Kansas City Royals. The last team to do it winning twice on the road, as the Cubs will have to do, was the 1979 Pittsburgh Pirates. Yet even those long odds aren’t likely to trouble Bryant. “We’re all about writing our own history,” he said. He comes by that steeliness honestly. His father, Mike Bryant, kicked around the low minors in the Red Sox organization for two years, but got the education of a lifetime from no less an authority on hitting than Ted Williams. Retired by then, Williams was a roving instructor whose philosophy was soaked up by Mike Bryant and then distilled to a single phrase for his own sons: “Hit it hard, and hit it in the air.” By age 12, Kris had already mastered both skills. He’s been refining them ever since. Cubs manager Joe Maddon knew the Indians’ staff, which relied heavily on breaking pitches to keep Bryant off balance, wouldn’t get away with the tactic much longer. “I like the fact that he wasn’t just swinging at anything,” Maddon said. “That’s what we all have to be able to do. That’s the kind of thing that could get him rolling.” It certainly did that for the hitters behind Bryant. Anthony Rizzo followed the fourthinning homer with a long double, and three of the next four hitters chipped in with singles. Just as important, that kind of discipline at the plate is the centerpiece of Maddon’s strategy. By grouping his best

THE ITALIAN GOLDSMITH AND SCULPTOR SILVIO GAZZANIGA poses with his most important work, the FIFA World Cup, at GDE Bertoni factory in Paderno Dugnano, near Milan, Italy, in this 2014 file photo. Gazzaniga died Monday.
World Cup trophy designer Gazzaniga dies at 95 Milan — Silvio Gazzaniga, the sculptor who designed the World Cup trophy, has died. He was 95. Gazzaniga’s son, Giorgio, said his father passed away in his sleep at home in Milan. “He just didn’t wake up this morning. It was a peaceful death,” Giorgio Gazzaniga told The Associated Press on Monday, adding that his father had been in the hospital recently for a series of minor ailments. Silvio Gazzaniga designed and created the World Cup trophy in 1971 after Brazil retained the right to keep the Jules Rimet trophy by winning its third World Cup in 1970. “The World Cup is a mythic object for the players and for all football lovers,” FIFA President Gianni Infantino said. “We will be eternally grateful. I express my condolences by joining the pain of the family.” The 18-carat solid gold trophy weighs approximately six kilograms (13 pounds). It depicts a moment of joy: two players celebrating with their arms outstretched and a globe resting on the backs of their shoulders. FIFA received 53 proposals from seven different countries for a new trophy, before opting for Gazzaniga’s design. “I designed it to reward heroism,” Silvio Gazzaniga said in a 2002 interview with The Associated Press. “But not superhuman heroism. It’s not a conventional cup.”
AUTO RACING
Man charged in NASCAR crash Martinsville, Va. — Virginia State Police say they’ve charged a man with reckless driving after a crash injured 22 people in a Martinsville Speedway parking lot after a NASCAR race. Police said in a statement Monday that 65-year-old Gary T. Edem of Fairfax, Virginia, was released after a magistrate placed him on unsecured bond. Troopers say Edem was driving a Chevrolet when he tried to pass a Jeep in the disabled parking area Sunday evening. Investigators say Edem struck the Jeep and the pedestrians. Police say 22 people ranging in age from 12 to 65 were injured, including 17 people who were taken to hospitals with injuries that were
not thought to be life-threatening. The incident remains under investigation.
BASEBALL
Game 6 to have historical visit Cleveland — The Indians will have a personal piece of their past at Game 6. Eddie Robinson, the last living member from Cleveland’s 1948 World Series title team, will be at Progressive Field tonight as the Indians try to win their first championship in 68 years. The 95-year-old Robinson was the starting first baseman on the ‘48 team, which featured Hall of Fame pitcher Bob Feller, Larry Doby, who broke the AL color barrier, shortstop/manager Lou Boudreau and pitcher Bob Lemon. Robinson is making the trip from Fort Worth, Texas, to see the Indians try to close out the Chicago Cubs. He batted .300 with six hits in the ‘48 Series and drove in Cleveland’s fourth run in Game 6 when the Indians beat the Boston Braves to win the championship.
HORSE RACING
Jockeys hurt in horse pileup London — Britain’s champion jockey, Jim Crowley, and fellow rider Frederik Tylicki were taken to the hospital with suspected spinal injuries following a pile-up involving four horses at Kempton on Monday. Crowley and Tylicki were treated at the racecourse before being taken to the major trauma unit at a hospital in south London. Barney Clifford, clerk of the course, said Crowley and Tylicki “are on spinal boards.” Later Monday, the Newmarket-based Injured Jockeys Fund said Crowley had been discharged to return home, while Tylicki was conscious and “in intensive care in a stable condition.” Racing was delayed for more than an hour after the accident, before a decision was made to abandon the remaining four races on the card. The incident occurred after two horses — Nellie Deen and Madame Butterfly, ridden by Tylicki — had heavy falls. Crowley’s mount, Electrify, and Skara Mae were racing behind and were brought down. The horses were not reported to be seriously

No. 3 Kansas Jayhawks (0-0) vs. Washburn Ichabods (0-0)
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1D
Mason said. “And I think the younger guys and the older guys know that and they’ve figured out everything coach wants us to do. We just have to attack the game plan now.” At least part of tonight’s game plan figures to incorporate Self’s new desire to run with a fourguard lineup. The reason for Self’s plan to install such a system is the depth and strength of KU’s perimeter players. However, just because the Jayhawks have designs on playing four guards more than ever this season does not mean that’s the way it will play out against the Ichabods. “We won’t be too good at it (Tuesday),” Self said of the small lineup. “We’ve worked on a few things, but for two or three days is all. We’ve primarily been practicing with two bigs in there the majority of the time.” Asked if they were ready to see the smaller lineup in action, KU guards Mason and Lagerald Vick both sounded eager to see how it worked.

1 2 3 THREE KEYS FOR KANSAS
Set the tone
Find out what fits
Freshmen debut
It may say “exhibition” on the Kansas schedule, but senior guard Frank Mason III is not about to let anyone in a Kansas uniform use that excuse to not play hard in this one. “We take every game serious,” Mason said. “We don’t care if it’s an exhibition or a scrimmage, we want to play every game like it’s an official game and I think we will.” With a handful of newcomers and a few familiar faces in bigger roles, it will be up to the veterans on the team to establish that mentality early on, and that’s exactly what sophomore guard Lagerald Vick is eager to see during tonight’s contest. “This time last year, I was so nervous,” Vick said. “I’m not as nervous as I was last year. I’ve been practicing over the summer and I just feel more comfortable. ... I just want to see the leadership from the older guys and see everybody take on their role as the coaches give them.”
As much as KU’s four-guard lineup has dominated talk this preseason, the Jayhawks still have several other aspects of their rotation that need to be worked out. The starting five seems set, but the rotation from there is still a bit of a mystery. Will Sviatoslav Mykhailiuk or Lagerald Vick be the first perimeter player off the bench? Are mammoth freshman Udoka Azubuike or ever-improving athletic freshman Mitch Lightfoot ready for real minutes? Is Dwight Coleby mentally and physically recovered enough from his ACL injury for a meaningful role? Those elements won’t all be decided in this one, but the first steps toward finding answers should emerge.
There’s been a lot of talk among the upperclassmen and KU coaches about the job of watching the freshmen experience game night at Allen Fieldhouse for the first time. It’s something that all of these players and coaches remember from their own debuts. And it’s something people also like to see others experience long after they first did it. This freshman class — Azubuike, Lightfoot and one-and-done phenom Josh Jackson — has been hyped for months and it’s their turn to make their first impression on the Allen Fieldhouse crowd. You know the fans will be fired up for Jackson, but will Azubuike or Lightfoot steal the show? “I’m real excited to see them run out of the tunnel,” Mason said. “And I just told ’em be ready to have some fun, enjoy the great crowd that we’ll have, take every game serious and compete.”
MEGA MATCHUP

KU coach Bill Self has not been shy about exbehind only Duke and Jayhawks. “I don’t know if Frank (Mason) and Devonté (Graham) pressing his feelings about this year’s team and he reiterated them Kentucky.

We want to play at that pace that those guards do from challenged and yet have the potential to be pretty good.” Because Kansas was the only KU.

all four defeats in blowout fashion: Memphis won, 43-7; Texas Tech rolled, 55-19; Baylor dominated, 49-7; and OU finished its drubbing by scoring 49 unanswered points. “And then defensively we’re still giving up a lot of points,” Beaty said. “I know we’re playing well throughout spurts of the game or large portions of the game, but we still can’t give up points. Those are areas where it’s the name of the game for every team in the country, and we’ve gotta be better there.” Still, Beaty reiterated Monday his claim that he saw progress in KU’s latest defeat. “We have to look at reality and where we really are,” the second-year head coach said, “and one of our big goals coming off what we have done on the road to this point is going out and starting fast. We were out of the game at Baylor really quick (down 21-0 in first quarter). We were out of the game versus Memphis really quick (trailing 19-0 early in second). And that was due to slow starts. Obviously, you need to play a complete four quarters. But given our roster and just the amount of depth that we have, at times you’re gonna get wore down a little bit. And we understand that, so we’ve gotta do a better job of training the guys behind ’em to make sure they can give us the plays that we need to rest those starters, to be able to play deeper into the game.” Constantly searching for indicators of improvement, Beaty said KU had it best road first quarter of the year (the Jayhawks trailed 14-0 in the first at Texas Tech) by taking a 7-3 deficit into the second quarter at OU. “So I think the big thing for us is to continue to work on the fact that when one play goes wrong we don’t let one play turn into two,” Beaty said, “and two turn into three and so on and so on. If we can do that, we’re gonna have a chance to improve the team.” Through the years, Kansas has lost all three trips to Morgantown, W.Va. Long before the Mountaineers joined the Big 12, WVU won 21-0, in 1941. More recently, West Virginia destroyed Kansas, 59-10, in 2012. In its previous trip to WVU, KU fell, 33-14, in 2014.
Hawks 106, Kings 95 Atlanta — Dwight Howard had 18 points, Kyle Korver and Dennis Schroder scored 17 points apiece, and Atlanta beat Sacramento on Monday night for their first 3-0 start in five seasons. Every Atlanta starter scored in double figures, and the Hawks held Sacramento’s DeMarcus Cousins in check after he averaged 30 points in the Kings’ first three games. He finished with 14 points and 12 rebounds. Rudy Gay scored 22 points for Sacramento (2-2), which led 81-79 after three quarters. Matt Barnes also scored 14 points, and Ben McLemore finished with 12.
Back in Lawrence Following this week’s 6 p.m. (ESPN 2) meeting with West Virginia, at Milan Puskar Stadium, Kansas returns to Memorial Stadium to face another struggling Big 12 team, Iowa State (1-7, 0-5). The conference announced Monday the Nov. 12 KU-ISU game will kick off at 11 a.m. and air on Fox Sports Net. KU hasn’t won a Big 12 game in nearly two years, dating back to a 34-14 home victory over Iowa State, on Nov. 8, 2014, when defensive coordinator Clint Bowen served as interim head coach.

The Kansas volleyball team finished last season in the Final Four and started this one ranked No. 4 in the country before falling as far as eighth. The Jayhawks (20-2) returned to No. 4 in the AVCA poll released Monday in the wake of Saturday’s fiveset victory that ended a 25-match losing streak to Texas. Texas (17-3), which fell from No. 4 to No. 5, is the only other Big 12 squad in the top 25. Nebraska (20-1) ranks first, followed by Minnesota (17-4) and Wisconsin (18-3), which means the top five schools in the poll are located in the Central time zone, an indication of the sport’s growing popularity in the middle of the country. Kansas toppled from No. 4 in the fourth poll of the season after losing a road match to Purdue, then moved to No. 6, where it stayed until Monday. The Jayhawks resume their schedule Wednesday at Kansas State at 7 p.m.

Cubs CONTINUED FROM 2D
hitters — Bryant usually bats second, followed by Rizzo and lately by Ben Zobrist — Maddon forces opposing pitchers to throw them strikes. When anyone in that grouping starts swinging at bad pitches — as the Cubs did consistently throughout the first four games — the chain reaction extends all the way down the lineup. The shift to Cleveland will allow Maddon to re-insert slugger Kyle Schwarber to the mix as the designated hitter, which effectively lengthens the most dangerous stretch of the order.
“The lineup again is always about protection ... and being able to utilize Schwarber, all of a sudden, those games get a little bit longer and a little bit thicker,” Maddon said. Whether it’s confidence or simply youth, the suspense is what Bryant and the rest of these young Cubs thrive on. “This team is a special one, and we look at so many times throughout the year where we haven’t been playing good, but I feel like we turn that around,” he said. “Someone told me today that 17 times this year we lost a game and went on to win three in a row,” Bryant added a moment later. “So why can’t we do that now?” Why not indeed?
