Frequent flier: Lifelong pilot always prepared for takeoff By Brenna Hawley bhawley@ljworld.com

Jack Leftwich strapped on a helmet and got into the open cockpit of a biplane. He was 15, it was his birthday, and he wanted to ride in a plane. The pilot took off, heading north out of Fairfax Airport in Kansas City, Kan. The plane got about 200 feet in the air when Leftwich heard a horrendous crash. “I remember being knocked violently to one side of the !"#$"% cockpit and !!!"#$!%&#'"(%) was momentarily stunned,” he To see a map of the recalls. routes Leftwich flew in “Then I the South Pacific, a remember video of Leftwich disthe second cussing his time as a impact as we pilot and a photo gallery hit the of the 93-year-old, visit ground.” LJWorld.com. A second plane had been flying into the sun and collided midair with theirs. Three of the four people in the crash survived. Leftwich was lucky to come away with only a lifelong scar on his scalp, but the accident didn’t leave a scar on his love for flight. Jack “Lefty” Leftwich, a rural McLouth resident, has led a storied life, much of it hundreds of feet in the air in various airplanes. He flew for Pan Am during World War II and had a decades-long career with the company. Seventy years after beginning as a pilot, at 93, he continues to fly, taking his ultralight aircraft out on his personal airstrip on summer days.

Flying career takes off Leftwich said his interest in aviation began as early as he could remember, and as a 7-year-old boy he would ride his bike to the nearby airport and watch the planes. When he visited his grandmother’s farm south of McLouth, he would climb a tree in the backyard, tugging along a board with nails pounded into it. Each nail represented some instrument in the cockpit of an airplane. “I would climb up in the tree and I would look off into the distance, and I would pull these nails around

KU pays tribute to donors kbritt@ljworld.com

Kansas University School of Medicine students rely on body donations. It’s how they learn about the human anatomy in great detail and how to perform procedures safely and effectively. Ultimately, it’s you and me — the patients — that benefit. Dr. Dale Abrahamson, chair of the department of anatomy and cell biology, said KU receives between one and 200 donations each year. “This is a selfless and timeless gift that is made, and it’s for the education of doctors and other

Once completed, KU will send a donor card that can be kept in a wallet or with other personal effects. It’s also important to inform family. “It’s entirely up to the family whether to honor the wish or not, but typically they do,” Abrahamson said. There are certain conditions where KU cannot accept a donation. These include: ● The body has been embalmed. ● Amputation has been

Prepare for busier highways and skyways this holiday season as more Americans prepare to travel. Both the Kansas AAA and Kansas City International Airport are reporting a boost in travelers. Across the country, AAA is reporting that 92.3 million Americans will travel 50 miles or more between Dec. 23 and Jan. 2. That’s a 3.1 percent increase from last year. “There is a growing consumer confidence, a modest economic recovery and some pent up demand that continues to drive travel increases,” said Jim Hanni, executive vice president for the Kansas region and public affairs at AAA. Travel is up despite rising gas prices. The national average for selfservice gasoline is $2.98 per gallon. Experts predicted earlier this month that the national average would inch its way to $3 by Christmas. This week in Kansas, the average is at $2.87 per gallon, which is 33 cents higher than last year. “Holiday travel plans made with the family trumps the increase in gas prices,” Hanni said. “But cuts in other areas may be made.” As for air traffic, the Air Transport Association of America predicts that between 1.7 million and 2.3 million people will fly daily during the holiday. Throughout the winter holiday, air travel is up by about 3 percent compared with 2009. The busiest days of the season will be from Dec. 21 to Dec. 23, Dec. 26 to Dec. 30 and Jan. 2 to Jan. 3. On those days, airplanes are expected to be 90 percent full. At KCI, more than 679,000 passengers are expected between Dec. 16 and Jan. 5. That’s a 5 percent increase from last year. To make your trip through the airport run smoother, KCI spokesman Joe McBride advises getting to the airport about 90 minutes before your flight leaves, using the airline’s online check-in 24 hours in advance and following the Transportation Security Administration guidelines when packing. “The volumes of people are going to be heavy,” McBride said. “Typically, people traveling for Christmas or other holidays are not seasoned business travelers and not as prepared for the whole process.” The increase in travel plans is good news for the economy, Hanni said. When the economy took a nosedive in 2007, the travel industry was among the first to take a hard hit. Now Hanni believes it is one of the first to rebound. “Now that the economy is starting to come back, travel is ahead,” he said — Reporter Christine Metz can be reached at 832-6352.

T O N G A N O X I E — For more than a quarter of a century, Mildred McMillon’s had her finger on the pulse of education. Now, the 83-year-old Tonganoxie resident says she’ll end her official public service when her term on the local school board concludes in June.

“After 27 1/2 years I’m ready to hang it up,” she said. She’s not spent all of those 27 years on the Tonganoxie McMillon board. In fact, during her third term on the local board — back in 1986 — she ran successfully

for the Kansas State Board of Education. In the late 1990s, after her husband, Pete, became ill, McMillon left the state board. He died in 2004. Soon after, McMillon decided it was time to return to public service and rejoined the Tonganoxie board in 2007. She plans to complete her current term, but won’t seek re-election. “We need younger people,” she said. “I just don’t

think four more years added to my age now I would be as competent as somebody younger.” She also cited health issues. She said being part of school activities was important for a board member. “Walking is not a part of my good speed right now,” she said, adding, “long as I’m sitting, I can sit all day.” She has some advice for anyone interested in serving

on a school board. “I just feel as though your endeavors are targeted toward kids and you keep them in utmost importance,” McMillon said. “If you have a vendetta to get someone fired, stop progress, I think you’ve got the wrong attitude.” — Shawn Linenberger, news editor at The Mirror newspaper in Tonganoxie, can be reached at 913-845-2222.

general health provider education kinds of studies that most of the bodies are used for,” Abrahamson said. The timing between death and delivery can not exceed 24 hours, so if someone dies while traveling, KU will recommend donating the body to a nearby medical school. “As soon as after death as possible, we need to begin the anatomical preservation procedures,” Abrahamson said. The process is more thorough and lengthy than what is used in the funeral home industry. Most of the donations are from the region because of the time factor. He said they’ve gotten a few donations from western Kansas. KU doesn’t pay for the transportation, but all costs are covered after arrival. KU uses the donations anywhere from two weeks to two years. After the research is done, the bodies are cremated. “The bodies are treated individually. They are not comingled,” Abrahamson said. The family can opt to have

the cremains returned to them. If not, they are buried in a grave site at Oak Hill Cemetery in Lawrence. There was an internment of several dozen cremains last month. Every year, KU pays tribute to the donors, and family and friends are invited to attend the ceremony. Abrahamson said he gives a testimonial along with other faculty members, practicing doctors and medical students. “The donors become, in essence, the first patient that these medical education students ever truly encounter in an in-depth way, and so they will carry the memory of their first patient with them throughout their entire careers,” Abrahamson said. “It is an enormous gift.” Dr. Charles Yockey, a Lawrence Memorial Hospital hospitalist, agrees. “Every med student benefits from patients who donate their bodies to science.

Giving pets as gifts can be bad idea 1 | JERUSALEM

American tourist found dead Israeli police discovered the body of an American woman, hands bound and full of stab wounds, in a rugged forest outside Jerusalem on Sunday, a day after a friend said Arab assailants attacked the pair during a hike in the hills. The friend, who suffered light wounds but managed to escape, said one of the two attackers approached them with what looked like a long bread knife and carefully removed her Star of David necklace before stabbing her where it had hung. Police spokesman Micky Rosenfeld said authorities were treating the attack as political in nature, while not ruling out that it could have been criminal. Police said there were no signs that the wounded women had been sexually assaulted or robbed. Rosenfeld identified the slain woman as Christine Logan, a 40-year-old American tourist. Her hometown was not released.

While it might seem like a good idea, adopting an animal during the holiday season can bring unexpected stress to both the animal and the adopters. Adding an animal to a family is something that should be well-thought out, and an impromptu gift is not the way to go, say area animal authorities. Midge Grinstead, Lawrence Humane Society director, said

mal the gifters think they’ll like. “Sometimes the better gift is to give a leash or a collar, or something that will allude to what the gift is,” she said. That will give the person receiving the gift the opportunity to decide if an animal is really right for them. Ermeling said there are a lot of factors to consider, such as the money required to keep a pet and the time spent taking care of them. “Those are the things that go on beyond the cuteness, the day

most shelters don’t adopt animals out as gifts. “When somebody comes in and says, ‘My girlfriend wants a puppy for Christmas,’ we’ll say no,” she said. The better alternative, she says, is a gift certificate or promise of adoption, so the person receiving the animal can pick out the pet that best fits them. Marguerite Ermeling, a veterinarian and owner of Gentle Care Animal Hospital, 601 S. Kasold Drive, said giving people the option to choose is better than simply picking out an ani-

Girl Scout revamps nursery to earn award

2 | WASHINGTON, D.C.

Senate advances food safety bill The Senate on Sunday passed a sweeping bill to make food safer, sending it to the House in the waning days of Congress. It was the second time the Senate passed the bill, which would give the government broad new powers to increase inspections of food processing facilities and force companies to recall tainted food. The chamber passed the bill for the first time three weeks ago, but it was caught in a constitutional snag when senators mistakenly included tax provisions that are by law supposed to originate in the House. The version of the legislation passed by the Senate on Sunday is amended to avoid another such mishap.

Free State junior reaches out to church for Gold Award project

Long, a junior at Free State and a Girl Scout Ambassador 7744, completely redesigned the church’s nursery as a project to receive her Gold Award.

By Aleese Kopf akopf@ljworld.com

Christmas came a week early for the congregation at West Side Presbyterian Church. Their gift this year: a custom-designed nursery. But it wasn’t Santa who designed the nursery; it was Jaclyn Long, a junior at Free State High School. Jaclyn, a Girl Scout Ambassador, chose the church nursery as the goal for her Gold Award project, the Girl Scouts’ equivalent of the Boy Scouts’ Eagle Scout project. Jaclyn said she chose the nursery for her project because that is where her cello ensemble group would practice, and she could tell it was in need of repair. Church staff and the congregation agreed. The new nursery was a muchneeded improvement from the previous. “It’s a 100 percent change,” said Craig Chappell, outreach coordinator. “The proposal from Jaclyn came out of left field, but we couldn’t have asked for more.” Instead of grungy-looking walls, a crib that outdated current safety regulations, a bathroom in poor repair and an

Country moves to launch firing drills South Korea ordered residents of front-line islands into bomb shelters as it vowed to press forward with live-fire drills near disputed waters today despite North Korea’s threat to retaliate, sharply spiking tensions. U.N. diplomats meeting in New York failed to find any solution to ease fears of a new war on the Korean peninsula, nearly a month after the North shelled South Korea’s Yeonpyeong island in retaliation for earlier artillery exercises there. The North has said it would respond even more harshly to any new drills from the Yellow Sea island. South Korea’s move to launch new drills from Yeonpyeong brought tensions to their highest point since the North’s Nov. 23 bombardment, which killed two South Korean marines and two civilians in the North’s first attack targeting civilian areas since the 1950-53 Korean War. 4 | BELARUS

Opposition leaders arrested after riots

In the biggest challenge to authoritarian leader Alexander Lukashenko in 16 years in power, thousands of demonstrators massed outside the main government office to protest alleged vote fraud in Sunday’s presidential election, but club-swinging riot police drove them off and beat many. The violent night left in doubt the next step for Belarus, which is of interest to the Kremlin because of its position as a buffer between Russia and the West. The West, for its part, has been offended by Lukashenko’s harsh rule and his resistance to change. Three of the candidates who ran against Lukashenko were arrested and the top opposition leader, Vladimir Neklyayev, was forcefully taken from the hospital by unknown men in civilian clothes, By Kathy Hanks activists said.

overall outdated feel, young ones and their parents are now welcomed with a clean, bright, joyful atmosphere. Jaclyn’s heavens and sky theme includes one wall of kites and another wall of hand-built hot air balloons. On the center wall lies an angel mural. Besides the wall decorations, the nursery includes yellow window curtains with swirls symbolizing wind, a floor full of children’s toys, a flat-screen TV, a remodeled bathroom, an updated crib and much more. All in all, through letter campaigns and donations, Jaclyn raised about $6,000 for the nursery. Chappell said that without the help of Jaclyn, the church would

have never been able to do the remodeling that was desperately needed. Jaclyn started the project in July and has been working with the church and donors ever since.

used bright colors and designed a colorful map of tasks and rewards. From that, the game “Family Night Out” evolved. After four tasks — whether sweeping, making a bed, picking up toys or taking out the trash — the child earns a reward. That’s followed by four more tasks, then free spaces, until they get to the center of the board. Once there, they win a family night out. At her house, that meant bowling or a movie night, or sometimes staying home and playing a game. It all depended on what the child who had reached the goal wanted to do.

“Your Comfort is Our Business.” Business. ”

The determination to create the game was fueled by Herdman’s desire to be the best mother she could be, and that meant spending time with her children. At 19, she married and settled into the role of wife and mother. “I had a rough childhood and a rough marriage,” she said. “Now, life is good. My boys and I are very close.” Something she attributes, in part, to the family night out game. She continues to work as a med-aide at Pleasant View Home in Inman. Along with marketing the game, selling it at fairs and online, she has a side

business: Norma’s photos. Marketing the game has come with new challenges. Though she wrote to Parker Brothers for help with developing her game, they turned her down. At that point she felt she had reached a dead end. “But Justin kept pushing me,” she said of her 22-year-old son. So with the encouragement of her sons, she found a company to produce the colorful magnet board game that comes with several magnetic smiley faces. “This is a way to include children,” she said. “It’s exciting, bright and draws kids’ attention.”

Pilot reflects on 70 years in the cockpit small Piper Cub. When the United States entered World War II, he enrolled in the Civilian Pilot Training Program, which trained people to fly to fill the spaces left vacant by pilots joining the military. At the end of his training, he was assigned to fly for American Airlines, but requested to transfer to Pan Am, and thus began his career flying all over central America and the South Pacific.

Richard Gwin/Journal-World Photo

JACK “LEFTY” LEFTWICH, 93, OF MCLOUTH, has been flying for some 70 years as he flew in WWII and for Pan Am. He still flies and keeps an Eipper Sprint ultralight airplane in a hangar next to his house and a 1,600-foot-long airstrip.

‘A job to do’ Leftwich, later nicknamed “Lefty,” was originally based in Brownsville, Texas, and flew routes south through Central American countries to Panama and back in a large DC-3 aircraft. In 1943, he transferred to San Francisco and started flying sea planes, which were vastly different from both the plane he originally took lessons in and the plane he was flying south. Water landings in particular were a new experience. “It’s a whole different world,” he said. “Imagine coming within a year and a half from the Piper Cub to the DC-3 to this aircraft.” Leftwich said he would fly one plane, a Boeing 314, from San Francisco to Honolulu, then switch to the Martin PBM3R airplane for his flights into the South Pacific.

As f irst off icer on these flights, Leftwich knew they were transporting medical supplies, items vital to the war effort and important people, but not many details beyond that were revealed. “Much of it was unknown to us because as we boarded the aircraft, the cargo was covered entirely,” he said. “It was not really accessible to determining what it was. It wasn’t really any of our business anyway.” Leftwich and the crew would fly southeast, landing on water runways near a network of runways in the Pacific Ocean. He flew three different routes, some taking almost four days to travel. The trips would end in Australia, New Caledonia or Espiritu Santo, the closest to warfare they went.

The trips weren’t entirely disaster-free. Leftwich once lost an engine between the Palmyra atoll and Kanton Island. Another time, a plane went down in Funafuti when the airplane hit the mast of a ship, and some crew members died. The tiny islands and runways made from coral were a far cry from Kansas City neighborhoods, but Leftwich said that’s just how it was during the war. “In wartime, people’s lives changed fast. People’s activities changed rapidly,” he said. “We had a job to do, and we did it as best we knew how.” After the war, Leftwich transferred to Miami and became a captain eight years later. In 1960, he transferred again to Berlin, where he

A family affair In 1977, Leftwich retired after 35 years with Pan Am. Three years later he moved back stateside and returned to McLouth, his roots. He didn’t totally give up flying, though. Leftwich found a place with enough space for a 1,600-foot-long grass airstrip, and he keeps an Eipper Sprint ultralight airplane in a hangar next to his house. His son and grandson, who both work for Gulfstream and share Leftwich’s love of airplanes, will visit and talk airplanes with Lefty. “They all three are very smitten,” said Leftwich’s wife, Sherry. “When they are together, it’s all they talk about.” The airplane, which has no enclosed cockpit and what Leftwich calls “fresh ventilation,” is something the three can bond over. “It doesn’t fly very fast, but it goes up,” Leftwich said. “We now have a funny flying machine for family and friends’ enjoyment.” And despite nearing the century mark in age, he has no plans to step out of the cockpit any time soon. “I will stop when I can’t any more,” he said. — Reporter Brenna Hawley can be reached at 832-6314.

EDITORIALS

Winning process Members of the Kansas University athletic director’s search committee did a commendable job despite the failure of contract negotiators to seal the deal.

embers of the committee conducting the search for a new Kansas University athletic director are to be congratulated for the manner in which they carried out their task. The six-person committee conducted a more thorough search and investigation of possible candidates than has been the practice of some recent KU search efforts. They also maintained tight security and no information was leaked by those serving on the search committee. The group was headed by Ray Evans of Kansas City with Ken Audus, Ritch Price, Linda Ellis Sims, Debbie Van Saun and Thomas Ward filling out the committee. Unfortunately, a last minute breakdown in contract language turned what looked like a winning home run process into a major disappointment. It didn’t have to happen and it shouldn’t have happened. Those engaged in the contract business should have done a better job. Fortunately, Evans and his associates, although rightfully disappointed, are enthusiastic in their renewed challenge to find a topflight individual to assume the KU athletic director’s office. KU is an excellent university and it needs and deserves a superior athletic director. It should be an attractive position to many wellqualified individuals and KU officials cannot afford to mess up when it comes time to negotiate a fair and reasonable contract.

Progress in Afghanistan remains fragile ZHARI, AFGHANISTAN — Visiting areas that until recently were Taliban strongholds, you can see the gains that President Obama described Thursday — and also why they remain, in his words, “fragile and reversible.” Here’s what progress looks like for Casey Johnson, a civilian aid worker in the district where insurgent leader Mohammad Omar once led a mosque. Now that Taliban fighters have been cleared, Johnson can go “outside the wire” to the district council office and listen to residents’ grievances and requests about such matters as land disputes. He can help Afghan officials organize a district “shura,” or local council, that perhaps can solve problems. And here’s the fragility: The Afghans don’t trust the Americans or the Afghan government yet. They supported the Taliban for years because it provided a kind of rough justice and security, and they don’t know if the new power structure will last. They fear the return of Taliban fighters who just a few days ago detonated a massive bomb nearby that killed six U.S. soldiers. “People are waiting, they’re on the fence,” says Johnson. “Their question is, ‘Will you still be here next spring and summer when the Taliban come back?’” Zhari lies to the west of Kanda-

here’s the fragility: “TheAndAfghans don’t trust the Americans or the Afghan government yet.”

har, in what’s probably the decisive battleground of the war. It was cleared by Canadian troops in 2006, but the Taliban came back strong — which explains why local residents are skeptical about the new American surge. The Afghan government presence has been corrupt or nonexistent. As a State Department official here puts it, Zhari has “broken politics” — a description that sadly fits most of the country under the presidency of Hamid Karzai. Local farmers think about change in very practical terms, he says. “Do people go to Taliban courts for justice or do they come to government courts? Do they trust the police for security or the Taliban?”

Even a few months ago, many experts doubted that better governance was possible here. The local power brokers, like Kandahar kingpin Ahmed Wali Karzai, the president’s half-brother, were corrupt and incompetent. Reform may still be mission impossible, but with the Taliban on the run, some Zhari residents have decided to give it a try. Earlier this month, protesters armed with picks and shovels demanded the removal of a corrupt police official who was running a camp for war refugees north of town. He’s out now. About 70 farmers attended a training session at a new government agriculture center, and went home with gift bags of farming gear. The best news is that about 80 people showed up last Monday for the first meeting of the shura despite the assassination last week of one of the organizers. Will people keep coming back for more meetings, despite the intimidation? That will be the measure of future progress. The awkward balance — of better security but governance structures that may be fatally weak — was evident in Marja, a district in Helmand province that has been a case study of the difficulties of the Afghanistan War. The area was cleared last February by U.S. Marines with much

fanfare and talk about installing “government in a box.” Ten months later, security is finally getting better, but there’s still more box than government. Violence is down. But many positions in the district government are empty. And the Afghan army, which is supposed to take over from U.S. forces, is still shaky, operating at only about half its authorized strength. The problem is structural: Afghan battalion commanders pay superiors to get their posts and then are paid for authorized troop levels. They hire fewer soldiers and pocket the difference. That’s unfortunately a model of how much of Afghanistan works. The power brokers prof it from underperformance. “Our (local) governor needs a complete staff,” says Lt. Col. James Fullwood, who commands the Marines in the area surrounding Marja. President Obama says that the measure of success in Afghanistan is that he can stick to his schedule and begin withdrawing U.S. troops and transferring responsibility to the Afghans next July. That part still sounds like wishful thinking, given the mixed picture. There’s progress, but as the president rightly said, it’s still very frail. — David Ignatius is a columnist for Washington Post Writers Group.

OLD HOME TOWN The Lawrence Urban Renewal Agency voted to recommend that the City Commission spend $10,000 to $20,000 for a study to see if the “footYEARS print” of a proposed downtown shopping AGO mall could still be classified as “slum and IN 1985 blight.” A large portion of North Lawrence and part of downtown had met statutory slum and blight requirements, according to a study completed in 1969 and reaffirmed in 1974. The designation was necessary for the city to condemn property in the 600 block of downtown. “Turmoil and disruptive events” occurring recently in Lawrence were cited as factors of concern for officials of West Co., a plastics manufacturing firm, who had YEARS been considering opening a $3-$4 million AGO plant in Lawrence. The vice president and IN 1970 general manager of the plastics division of the company said that there was now “nothing definite” about continuing the project.

From the Lawrence Daily World for Dec. 20, 1910: “Harry Guenther, an eight year old living in Palmyra township, brought eight YEARS jack rabbit heads to the county clerk’s AGO office this morning in the expectation of IN 1910 getting a bounty upon them. He was told that the county had ceased paying such bounties many years ago. The lad also had 19 crow heads which he disposed of for 95 cents. The bounty for crow and gopher is no small item in Douglas county. For eleven months of the present year the county clerk has issued warrants for $217 for such bounties. May, which is corn planting time, is evidently the best month, nearly $75 being claimed during this one month in crow bounties.” — Compiled by Sarah St. John

Obama inspires comparison to Nixon, LBJ Bill Clinton’s appearance this month at the White House lectern in support of President Barack Obama’s high-noon tax deal set the press buzzards buzzing. The remarks of the Great Triangulator were proof, or so they buzzed, that Barack Obama was triangulating too, as if that were a mortal sin. History shows that triangulation is at worst a venial sin. The return of the Big Dog, as Clinton sometimes is called, also was seen as evidence that Obama had been forced to the right and diminished since coming into the White House — though presidential drift to the left in domestic policy (see Nixon, Richard) or taxes (see Bush, George H.W.) is often seen in the press as confirmation that a chief executive has grown. Two factors will exonerate Obama as a courageous visionary or convict him for craven opportunism. One is the economy, over which Obama has discovered he has little control. The other is the verdict of the voters, who demonstrated last month that they would not forever swoon at Obama’s command. If the economy rebounds and if the voters rush back to Obama’s side — and surely the latter will not happen if the former does not — then he will be regarded as a magus. If it doesn’t and they don’t, he’ll be regarded as a miscreant. So for the purposes of this morning’s conversation over coffee, let’s leave the judging to others, or maybe to history. Let’s simply pass the cream and recall that presidents like to think they are as stable as Plymouth Rock when in fact they drift like the Mayflower. To prove this, we need not go back to Thomas Jefferson, who found a way to embrace the Louisiana Purchase even though he didn’t believe in territorial expansion, or to Franklin Roo-

David Shribman Surely it has been “Obama’s goal to live up

to Alexander Hamilton’s characterization of George Washington as someone who ‘consulted much, pondered much, resolved slowly, resolved surely.’” sevelt, who had few fixed principles and was, in Herbert Hoover’s timeless phrase, a chameleon on plaid. We need only examine a handful of presidents in Obama’s own 49-year lifetime. Start with Lyndon Johnson, who in October 1964 vowed that “we are not about to send American boys nine or 10 thousand miles away from home to do what Asian boys ought to be doing for themselves.” He was, of course, the president who escalated the American presence in Vietnam to 536,000 troops. But he was also the president who, based on his expansive view of American freedoms and his intuitive sense of Americans’ commitment to equality, broke with his own region and his own political mentors (especially his beloved Richard Russell) to side with the black freedom movement and sign two of the landmark civil-rights measures in American history. “He was known to be friendly toward civil rights, but going full

tilt the way he did was unexpected,” Harry C. McPherson Jr., who was special counsel and chief speechwriter to Johnson in the White House, said in a conversation last week. “But history intervened. He had to move forward as vigorously as he did. There was a whole movement out there in the country changing the public’s views. The fire hoses, the dogs, the freedom riders, the burning buses — we now know that he could not have ignored them.” No president in American history has confounded so many people as Richard M. Nixon, who rose to prominence in the late 1940s as a fractious Cold Warrior and who won a triumphant reelection battle in large measure because of his rapprochement with the twin symbols of communism, the nations then called Soviet Russia and Red China. But for Nixon, a classic triangulator known as Tricky Dick, his trips to China (soon after the 1972 Iowa caucuses) and the Soviet Union (as anti-war Sen. George S. McGovern of South Dakota was wrapping up the Democratic presidential nomination) were not the only angles he played. The mature Nixon was an ideological isosceles. He went against his party and every assumption when, in a much-forgotten but hauntingly relevant episode in February 1971, he called for a program of health insurance covering every American, using the private insurance sector but with an employer mandate to provide coverage, a federal subsidy for those unable to pay and shared risk pools. This was the same conservative who created the Environmental Protection Agency, expanded the food-stamp program and supported open-housing legislation that many conservatives (especially in the Southern states he courted so

openly, so assiduously and so cynically) feared and opposed. He also supported wage and price controls in 1971 and ended the convertibility of the dollar to gold, both anathema to conservatives. “Nixon was willing to go against his own constituencies,” said John R. Price, who in the Nixon White House was special assistant to the president and executive secretary of the Council for Urban Affairs and now is the head of the Federal Home Loan Bank of Pittsburgh. “He had a long view and weighed the politics with his real interest in the substance. But you can only do so much of this. Nixon always tacked back and regathered the reins on his own troops.” All of which tacks us back to Obama, who was 2 when Johnson took office and 7 when Nixon took office. He is selling his tax compromise, reviled by liberals as Democratic apostasy and scorned by some conservatives as a mealy-mouthed surrender to high deficits, as the work of someone who did what he promised to do in the campaign: to bring “Democrats and Republicans to the table — to put together a compromise and work through our differences,” as he put it in his radio address earlier this month. Surely it has been Obama’s goal to live up to Alexander Hamilton’s characterization of George Washington as someone who “consulted much, pondered much, resolved slowly, resolved surely.” But in truth he acts a lot more like Lyndon Johnson and Richard Nixon. The shock for someone who lived through the Johnson and Nixon years is the recognition that years from now what he’s doing might not look half bad — indeed, good enough for government work. — David Shribman is executive editor of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette.

Farmers can soon sign up for disaster aid HAYS — Farmers in 51 Kansas counties can soon sign up for disaster assistance from 2009. Jan. 10 is the opening date for enrolling in the 2009 SURE — Supplemental Revenue Assistance Payments — disaster program at Farm Service Agency offices. The Hays Daily News reports that 58 other Kansas counties were declared disaster areas, or are contiguous to declared areas, in 2010, but enrollment in that program has not been announced. The SURE program is one of five disaster programs included in the 2008 farm bill, and requires most farmers to purchase crop insurance to cover any losses. Generally, farmers don’t fully insure the crop because of the high cost. Many of the counties are in central Kansas, where spring frost and heavy rains decimated the 2009 wheat crop.

Cassel plays, sparks Chiefs past Rams

Kansas’ Selby proves ‘tough’

ST. L OUIS (AP) — Matt Cassel was supposed to be a game-day decision. The quarterback had no doubt he’d be in the lineup. Cassel went the distance only 11 days after an emergency appendectomy, leading the way in a 27-13 victory over the suddenly sagging St. Louis Rams on Sunday. He didn’t think it was a big deal, either. “Everything felt good,” Cassel said. “I feel good now. And a win makes it feel better.” Before the game, Cassel said one of the team doctors texted that he was probably more nervous than the quarterback about what might happen. Teammates

Freshman shows confidence in debut By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

The topic of toughness was addressed in Kansas University’s basketball locker room the other day. “I asked our guys, ‘Who are the toughest guys on our team? Not physically, but mentally playing hard every day?’’’ KU coach Bill Self said Sunday on his Hawk Talk radio show. “Our guys said, ‘(Brady) Morningstar and (Tyrel) Reed.’ I said, ‘Really? Morningstar and Reed.’ You’ve got a kid from Burlington, Kan., and Lawrence, Kan., and we’ve got kids from D.C., Baltimore and Philadelphia, and those guys just told me they are our toughest guys. “It shows it doesn’t make a difference where you are from. There’s tough kids everywhere.” Aware of the contributions of Burlington Selby High grad Reed and Free State High’s Morningstar, Self does acknowledge that Baltimore freshman Josh Selby is off to a good start in the toughness department. He showed guts in stepping up and hitting the game-winning shot against USC on Saturday in his major-college debut. “I think there is something with Sherron (Collins, inner-city Chicago), and Josh will have it too — something with being raised in a manner you had to fight to survive for everything that’s going on ... if you can draw that toughness on the court, you’ll have something special,” Self said. “Josh certainly doesn’t lack for confidence, and that says something about him.” Selby poured in 21 points — including the game-winning three with :26 left — in Saturday’s 70-68 victory over USC. He came off the bench and played 27 minutes. Self was asked Sunday when the 6-foot-2 newcomer will be moved into the starting lineup. “Josh will start here soon. I don’t know if it’ll be in Berkeley (vs. California, 10 p.m. Wednesday, Haas Pavilion). It very may well be. People around here, and rightly so, because it gets so much attention, worry about who is starting. The best players finish games.” If Selby starts, one perimeter player from the group of Reed, Morningstar and Tyshawn Taylor will take on a first-player-offthe bench role. “I don’t know who will come out. Tyshawn (Taylor) will not come out. If I do start him, Brady or Tyrel ... one (of them) will come off the bench, which I’m fine with,” Self said. Self said Selby will play some

yards in a 31-0 loss at San Diego last week with backup quarterback Brodie Croyle starting, and ended a seven-quarter scoreless drought on Cassel’s two-yard pass to Leonard Pope midway through the second quarter. Jones became the NFL’s 25th player to rush for 10,000 yards and scored the final touchdown on a two-yard run with 3:26 to go, one play after Ron Bartell ran down Charles just shy of the goal line. Charles had 126 yards on 11 carries and Jones had 62 yards on 22 carries, and the Chiefs totaled 213 yards rushing.

KANSAS GUARD KEENA MAYS (5) ELEVATES over SIU-Edwardsville guard Valerie Finnin (15) to make a pass. KU rolled to a 91-52 victory Sunday in Allen Fieldhouse.

Arguably, the best thing to happen to the Kansas University women’s basketball team on Sunday had little to do with the final score. And that’s not an indictment of how the Jayhawks played. KU once again won a game it was supposed to, looking dominant in its 91-52 thrashing of Southern IllinoisEdwardsville at Allen Fieldhouse. But more important than the easy victory over the outmatched Cougars was the return of two major contributors to the Jayhawks’ lineup: Goodrich sophomore point guard Angel Goodrich and senior guard Marisha Brown. “When they came back in practice, I was pretty pumped,” sophomore Monica Engelman said. “And even in warmups, I was getting hyped Brown just off of them warming up for us.” “Just to get those two back in the flow and back in the rotation is really good for us right now,” coach Bonnie Henrickson said. Goodrich, who missed seven games after undergoing arthroscopic surgery on her right knee, scored just two points, but led the Jayhawks with six assists with one turnover in 21 minutes. “She felt good. The knee felt good. She just got a little gassed,” Henrickson said. “You could tell she was huffing and puffing a little bit.” Brown returned after missing eight games because of a broken bone in her right foot, and though still hampered on the defensive end, she chipped in eight points in 13 minutes off the bench.

Royals trade Greinke for Brewer prospects

MILWAUKEE (AP) — The Milwaukee Brewers are going all in for 2011, acquiring former Cy Young winner Zack Greinke in a trade Sunday with the Kansas City Royals. The Royals acquired shortstop Alcides Escobar, outf ielder Lorenzo Cain and right-handed pitching prospects Jake Odorizzi and Jeremy Jeffress from the Brewers in exchange for Greinke, shortstop Yuniesky Betancourt Please see SELF, page 3B and cash considerations.

“Zack Greinke is one of the top young pitchers in the game today,” Brewers general manager Doug Melvin said in a statement. “We are very excited to add him to our new rotation.” Royals general manager Dayton Moore said the deal made sense for Kansas City because the young players they acquired from Milwaukee fit into what is expected to be a wave of promising young players coming up through their system. Third

baseman Mike Moustakas and first baseman Eric Hosmer could join the big-league club this year. “We expect to be competitive next year,” Moore said. “We’re still working to improve our baseball team.” Moore indicated it took some direct talks between him and Greinke before the pitcher agreed to waive the no-trade clause in his contract. “He was very much open to it at the end of the day,” Moore said.

Greinke was 10-14 with a 4.17 ERA for the Royals last season. It was a step back from his standout 2009 season, when he went 16-8 with a 2.16 ERA and won the Cy Young award. There are two years left on the four-year, $38 million contract he signed with the Royals in January 2009. He is due $13.5 million each of the final two seasons, although the Brewers got an undisclosed amount of cash back from the Royals as part of the deal.

Coach: UConn disliked for gender NEW YORK (AP) — After victory No. 88 in a row was in the books, G e n o Au r i e m m a f i n a l ly l e t loose: He thinks some people are rooting against his record-setting players because of their gender. “I just know there wouldn’t be this many people in the room if we were chasing a woman’s record,” the Connecticut coach said Sunday near the end of his postgame news conference. “The reason everybody is having a heart attack the last four or five days is a bunch of women are threatening to break

a men’s record, and everybody is all up in arms about it.” Already with no equal in women’s basketball, UConn won its 88th straight game Sunday to match the men’s mark set by coach John Wooden and his UCLA teams from 1971-74. Tiffany Hayes scored 26 points, and Maya Moore added 22 to help the top-ranked Huskies rout No. 11 Ohio State, 81-50, in the Maggie Dixon Classic at Madison Square Garden. “All the women are happy as hell, and they can’t wait to come in here and ask questions. All the guys that

O-lineman: TCF Bank unplayable MINNEAPOLIS — Vikings punter Chris Kluwe is calling the field at TCF Bank Stadium “unplayable.” But officials with the team and the University of Minnesota insist it will be safe for tonight’s game against the Chicago Bears. Crews at the university have been racing to get the on-campus open-air stadium ready for the Vikings’ rare outdoor home game. The Metrodome remains deflated due to a heavy snowstorm last weekend that tore holes in the roof that couldn’t be fixed in time. University athletics spokesman Garry Bowman says they’re “absolutely ready to go.” There was no media access to coaches or players during their walkthrough Sunday, but Kluwe and some other Vikings sounded off on their Twitter accounts. Kluwe tweets that the field is “hard as concrete.”

NFL Another fined from sidelines CHARLOTTE, N.C. — For the second time in a week, a fine has been levied for sideline contact during a punt return. Carolina defensive end Tyler Brayton was fined $15,000 by the NFL for hitting Atlanta’s Chris Owens out of bounds in last week’s game. The fine was levied Friday, but not made public. Also last Sunday, New York Jets strength and conditioning coach Sal Alosi stuck out his knee and tripped Miami’s Nolan Carroll. Alosi was suspended indefinitely by the team and fined $25,000.

GOLF Els tops Goosen in S. Africa DURBAN, SOUTH AFRICA — Ernie Els won the South African Open for the fifth time Sunday, shooting a 6-under 66 to beat Retief Goosen by one shot in a tournament shortened to 17 holes for each of the final two rounds.

COLLEGE FOOTBALL Ball State hires new coach MUNCIE, IND. — Ball State wanted a proven head coach to rebuild its struggling football program. On Sunday, athletic director Tom Collins hired longtime Football Championship Subdivision coach Pete Lembo as the Cardinals’ new coach. Lembo spent the last 10 seasons at Elon in North Carolina and Lehigh in Pennsylvania, turning both FCS schools into playoff contenders.

Nebraska safety cited for DUI LINCOLN, NEB. — Nebraska safety Rickey Thenarse was cited for drunken driving hours after his graduation ceremony. Lincoln Police Sgt. Jason Stille told the Lincoln Journal Star that Thenarse was in his vehicle stopped in the middle of a downtown street about 2 a.m. Sunday. The senior graduated Saturday.

SWIMMING Lochte leaves with six golds DUBAI, UNITED ARAB EMIRATES — Ryan Lochte won three more events at the short-course world championships Sunday and headed home with an impressive haul of six golds and one silver. It was a fitting end for Lochte and the normally dominant U.S. team, which failed to win any of the other relays — in both the men’s and women’s competitions.

record, we’ve got a lot of people paying attention,” Auriemma said. “If we were breaking a women’s record, everybody would go, ‘Aren’t those girls nice, let’s give them two paragraphs in USA Today, you know, give them one line on the bottom of ESPN and then let’s send them back where they belong, in the kitchen.” UConn already owned the longest winning streak in NCAA women’s basketball history. Next up, the Huskies (10-0) can surpass the UCLA men Tuesday night at home against No. 15 Florida State.

loved women’s basketball are all excited, and all the miserable (people) that follow men’s basketball and don’t want us to break the record are all here because they are (ticked),” Auriemma said. The no-nonsense Auriemma downplayed the significance of the streak as his team closed in on UCLA, promising that once the run was over he would open up. But the Hall of Fame coach, known to rub folks the wrong way at times, never has been afraid to say what’s on his mind. “Because we’re breaking a men’s

THE QUOTE “He has everything except the one thing that is required. By NFL standards, he’s a primitive passer. He does not own the left arm required to solve NFL defenses. Sorry, he will not run his way to greatness.” — The Gazette’s David Ramsey, on Denver quarterback Tim Tebow

TODAY IN SPORTS 2009 — Cleveland’s Jerome Harrison scores his third touchdown with 44 seconds left for the winning points and rushes for a team-record 286 yards in a 41-34 win over the Kansas City Chiefs. Joshua Cribbs of the Browns has two kickoff returns for touchdowns, setting an NFL career record with seven. After his 100yard return in the first quarter to break the mark, Cribbs dashes 103 yards in the second quarter.

Irish win; CU streak hits five The Associated Press John Young/Journal-World Photo

KANSAS UNIVERSITY PLAYERS, FROM LEFT, MARISHA BROWN, Monica Engelman and Keena Mays celebrate on the bench during Kansas’ game against SIU-Edwardsville. KU rolled to a 91-52 victory Sunday in Allen Fieldhouse.

“She goes, ‘I’m just slow,’” Henrickson said. “But her slow is still pretty quick.” The game was all but over by halftime, after the Jayhawks shot a blistering 68 percent from the floor and went to the break with a 48-21 cushion. KU finished shooting at a 63-percent clip against 33 percent from SIUE. Engelman led all scorers with 20 points on 9-of-12 shooting, Carolyn Davis (14 points) hit all six of her field goals, and Aishah Sutherland chipped in eight points and eight rebounds. Tania Jackson came off the bench to post her first career double-double, with 11 points and 10 rebounds. Every Jayhawk played and scored. Jazmin Hill, who scored 19 points, was the only Cougar who did much damage. SIUE’s next-leading scorer, Valerie Finnin, added nine points, though most came too late to make a difference. Goodrich started the game alongside Keena Mays (10 points, f ive assists), who thrived in a starting role during Goodrich’s absence. At times, the duo played together, and each had her turn running the offense while the other was on the bench. Two capable point guards is a great problem for Henrickson to have. “The fact that they both can score allows us to play them both together,” Henrickson said. Even with the injuries to

Self mulls guard options CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1B

lead guard, but remain “off the ball” when Taylor is in the game “A point guard is more than somebody who dribbles it up,” Self said. “A point guard is somebody who should be responsible for everything going on with everybody on the team. Tyshawn made some poor plays, but for the most part he’s been good this year. If we have a good offensive possession, I’ll say the point guard gets the credit. If we have a bad possession, the point guard should probably shoulder some of the blame. Defensively, it’s the same way. The point guard initiates everything. For a kid that hasn’t practiced as much, hasn’t been around as much, and had a lot of pressure on him, I don’t think it’s best to make him responsible for every single thing going on now. “We will give him many opportunities to be on the ball, and he will play for Tyshawn some. I just didn’t think this past Saturday it was best to put him under that kind of heat in his first game.” Self said Selby was quite

attentive at a film session Sunday. “Watching tape today ... he’s the first (to realize) he made shots, but he has a long ways to go from playing well,” Self said. “He knows that. He gets it. He just wants to get better. I think yesterday was a great day for us, for him and everything. I think it’s more exciting for me moving forward than it was yesterday because I’ve seen some great things that can happen. Certainly we have a to tighten a lot of screws up.” Self said suspended senior guard/forward Mario Little will not travel with the team to California. Little was arrested on charges of battery, criminal damage and trespassing last week. “I would anticipate him being back with us in some capacity, whether just practicing or whatever after Christmas,” Self said. “The bottom line is, he is a big boy. He gets it. He knows mistakes were made, and so he will deal with it. “I certainly believe and appreciate he’s been very forthright with us. The way we’ll deal with it basically is not deal with it for a while

Big 12 women No. 8 Texas A&M 79, Rutgers 50 N E W Y O R K — Danielle Adams had 24 points and 12 rebounds to lead A&M. Arkansas 67, No. 12 Oklahoma 57 FAYETTEVILLE, ARK. — C’eira Ricketts scored 21 points, and Lyndsay Harris added 18, leading unbeaten but unranked Arkansas past Oklahoma.

Cassel was questionable after getting limited work in practice, but led the team on the field for warmups and didn’t miss a snap while going 15for-29 for 184 yards. He was rarely hit by the Rams, who sacked him twice on the same series in the third quarter but couldn’t rattle him, and even produced a first down with a 13-yard scramble in the second quarter. The Rams (6-8) fizzled after a strong start, losing their second straight and missing a shot to solidify first place in the weak NFC West. Sam Bradford became the third rookie in the NFL to pass for

3,000 yards but it came in one of his worst performances. “I didn’t play well at all,” Bradford said. “We let it get away and there’s nothing we can do about it now.” Bradford was 21-for-43 for 181 yards and two interceptions, both times by Kendrick Lewis. Bradford was sacked three times, all by Wallace Gilberry, to lead a pass rush that hounded him all day. The Rams led 6-0 after field goals to end the first two possessions but totaled one first down in the second and third quarters while the Chiefs scored 20 straight points. The Chiefs have won five straight in the series since 1997.

(until more facts are in), accept that he will not be a participating member of our team in competition, but he is still a member of our team and will be. And we have to make sure he graduates. He needs six to nine more hours to get that done in the spring. “I don’t know how it’ll hurt our chemistry or not. Our guys really like him. I don’t think it’s going to be a big blow,” Self added. “Because sometimes when guys for whatever reason get injured or screw up or whatever, it creates opportunity for somebody else. A lot of times when that opportunity presents itself, they make the most of it.” Little played power forward as well as small forward for KU. Self said 6-foot-6 Travis Releford was the team’s best inside “post defender.” “He guarded (6-10 Nikola) Vucevic for seven to 10 minutes, and he never touched it, not one time,” Self said. “If you don’t have to trap, you don’t have to do a lot of things. He’s going to play some in there. We are awfully small. If guys can’t touch it, size is negated. I’m pleased with Travis.”

Right medicine for a mentally ill sibling? Annie’s Mailbox

over this? — Disappointed Church Member

Marcy Sugar and Kathy Mitchell

Dear Disappointed: Talk to your pastor, and explain how upset you were that she could not bring herself to pray for your husband’s health and recovery because of his church affiliation. That isn’t church ethics. It’s church politics. And a pastor should know the difference.

ized, and someone from his church came to visit, as did my pastor. But when I spoke to my pastor, she said she did not think it was good church ethics to pray for a nonmember, so she didn’t pray for my husband during his illness. Yet, when someone from his church visited me when I was hospitalized, they had no problem praying for me. I am a choir member and the church secretary, and I do anniesmailbox@creators.com whatever I can to help my ease, Not the Person community. I was disappointed to hear my pastor’s words. Dear Blame: It is not No wonder people don’t want uncommon for those with to attend church. How do I get mental illness to prefer to be unmedicated, and sometimes this reluctance can be eased with an adjustment in dosage or change in prescription. Your mother should talk to Stacy’s doctor. Also, please contact the National Alliance on Mental Illness (nami.org) at 1-800-950-NAMI (1-800950-6264). They can provide information, referrals and support, and their Family-toFamily program offers education and coping strategies for those caring for a loved one with mental illness.

The more things change, the more they stay the same. On a visual note, the new Fox offering “Million Dollar Money Drop” (7 p.m., Fox) demonstrates how little the prime time game show set has changed since “Who Wants to Be A Millionaire” arrived way back in 1999. Hosted by actor/comic Kevin Pollak, “Drop” does offer some wrinkles in the formula. Dating back to the early days of TV game shows, the money at stake had always been an abstraction represented by a flashing number. “Drop” takes the “Deal or No Deal” idea a few steps further by presenting the contestants and the audience with the sheer physical bulk of a million dollars. It’s hardly something one of Howie Mandel’s fembots could stash in her burnished briefcase. It’s more like something you need to store on a pallet; move with a forklift or hide away in a storage locker. Imagine the episode of “Storage Wars” that would make. “Drop” also deviates from the past in the order of accumulation. Unlike games in which the contestants begin with nothing and work their way up, here the players are bestowed with the whole unwieldy wad from the get go. Over the course of answering seven questions, they must bet their entire sum and physically place it on top of slots that will open in the woeful event of a wrong answer. The sheer spectacle of watching eager couples move all that green around adds an obstacle-course element to the proceedings. And for the audience, there is the ecstasy of the players when they retain their loot or the agony of watching a pile of dough drop down the loser shoot. Like most of these affairs, it’s not halfamusing. But in a staggering act of programming, Fox expects viewers to watch “Drop” for an hour at a time. Tonight, they’re expecting us to sit still for two whole hours. Or maybe they’re just hoping folks will tune in from time to time. You don’t need to be a 21st-century Mark Goodson or Bill Todman to know that game shows are best swallowed in halfhour portions. Watching “Jeopardy!” for 20 minutes or so is an innocent distraction. Downing it by the hours is a cry for help. ● Over the next two nights, “Independent Lens” (8 p.m., PBS, check local listings) presents “The Calling,” profiles of young people from three major faiths preparing to become religious leaders.

Tonight’s other highlights ● Hallmark presents the original animated special “Martha and the Christmas Tree” (6 p.m., Hallmark). ● Minnesota hosts Chicago on “Monday Night Football” (7:30 p.m., ESPN). ● The winning group emerges on “The Sing-Off” (7 p.m., NBC). ● “Skating with the Stars” (7 p.m., ABC) enters the fifth and final week. ● A feud threatens holiday cheer on “The Closer” (8 p.m., TNT). ● “The Rachel Maddow Show” (8 p.m., MSNBC) airs live from New York’s 92nd Street Y over the next three nights. ● An escaped con wants revenge on “Hawaii Five-O” (9 p.m., CBS). ● A glum Christmas Eve on “Chuck” (9 p.m., NBC). ● Claire Danes stars in the remarkable 2010 cable biography “Temple Grandin” (8 p.m., HBO). ● Joe dates two women on “Men of a Certain Age” (9 p.m., TNT).

JACQUELINE BIGAR’S STARS For Monday, Dec. 20: This year, allow greater give-and-take with key people in your life. Unusual creativity will come forward, though you might need to give up some of what you feel is right. If you are single, many suitors seem to appear out of the ethers. If you are attached, allow more giveand-take between you and your sweetie. Gemini often challenges you. The Stars Show the Kind of Day You'll Have: 5Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult Aries (March 21-April 19) ★★★★ A strong sense of direction defines your morning. The ability to flex becomes more important as the day continues. Tonight: Having discussions, catching up on friends' news, answering email. Taurus (April 20-May 20) ★★★ A steady path seems to be the only way to go most of the time, especially when dealing with finances. Tonight: Center yourself, then clear up a misunderstanding. Gemini (May 21-June 20) ★★★★★ Smile this morning. You have the capability to handle whatever you must. Tonight:

Dear Annie: My 30-year-old sister is mentally ill and currently lives with my mother. “Stacy” used to live in her own place, but in the past six years, she has become gradually more dependent. She refuses to go anywhere alone and will no longer use the telephone or Internet at all. She has no interaction with anyone outside the immediate family. I’m concerned about Stacy’s well-being, but I’m also worried about my mother, who has become her caregiver. Mom works 80 hours a week and has health issues and needs all the sleep she can get. Stacy shares a room with her and wakes her up frequently during the night to tell her about the voices she’s hearing and the symptoms she’s having. She’s very demanding and won’t leave Mom alone for five minutes. I don’t know what to do. I fear for my sister’s future. My mother says she will eventually live in a group home, but anytime the subject is brought up, Stacy gets angry and says she’ll never go. She doesn’t recognize that she has an illness and is always going off her medication. She’s been in the hospital repeatedly. There are no other family members to take care of Stacy, and even if someone offered, she would refuse. Any advice? — Blame the Dis-

Matt Dodge was ordered by Giants coach Tom Coughlin to punt away from the Eaglesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; elusive return man. The rookie punted all right, straight to Jackson, who fumbled the ball before taking off on one of the greatest plays in NFL history â&#x20AC;&#x201D; a breathtaking 65-yard punt return for the winning touchdown on the final play of the game. The Eagles scored 28 points in the final 7:18 and beat the New York Giants on Sunday, a bitter loss that revived memories of â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Miracle at the Meadowlandsâ&#x20AC;? in 1978.
