to Louisville, Kentucky, to compete at the North American International Livestock Exposition. This was their third national competition. During this contest, the Alva team judged ten classes, provided four sets of oral reasons, and answered three sets of questions. Team members figured this was the end of their judging together for Alva High School as they are currently enrolled in different colleges. However, when results rolled around, the Alva graduates learned that they had won second high team and had qualified to judge at the international level in Scotland and Ireland this coming June. This means they have the opportunity to represent the United States in two livestock judging competitions overseas. Along with their second place honor, the Alva team received fifth in Beef, fourth in Reasons, ninth

in Sheep/Goats, and first in Swine. Individual honors went to Tanner Burton, receiving sixth in swine, Kory Dietz, second in beef, and Kory Dietz and Courtney Mapes in being named All American Judges as they were second and eighteenth respectively overall in the contest. Hopefully, if enough funds can be raised, the team of four, along with coach Randy Nation and his wife, will travel to Scotland and Ireland to compete against other international teams from across the globe. The Alva team is conducting fundraisers to help pay for the cost of the trip. The newspaper asked the cost and they estimate $4,000 per person attending. The students welcome any donations toward helping them represent Alva FFA across the Atlantic Ocean. If interested, please contact one of the team members listed above in this article.

The museum's programming committee presents an entertaining, educational evening at the museum on January 17 from 7 to 9 p.m. As in the plot of the popular movie series of the same name, “characters will awaken at dark thirty,” Museum Chairman Brodie Bush said. A minimum of 15 rooms in the museum will come to life as local patrons dressed in period clothes portray different characters from Alva's history. 'Mannequins' in each room will give a short presentation or demonstration depicting life during the earlier time periods. Some of the rooms to be featured are the Post Ofce, the kitchen, the country store, the drug store, the Indian room, the P.O.W. Camp, the medical rooms, the beauty shop, the quilt room, the music room, the saloon, the train room, the telephone ofce, the funeral room, the Lincoln Room, and the chapel. The committee and the museum board are researching the different divisions to provide authentic, educational information for this rst of its kind event. “I've been going through the Alva books and talking to my dad,” Susie Koontz said. “I'm going to be a clerk in the original Share Brothers Store which sold both dry goods and groceries.” Visitors to the museum will meet Abraham Lincoln portrayed by Darrell Kline. Janie Gould portrays an operator of the old fashioned telephone switchboard. Others participating include Anthony Lovelace, Beth Smith, Gilbert Johnson, Raye Lyn Bird, Charles Murrow, Warren Little, Arden Chaffee, Nicki Chaffee, Paula McMurphy, James Wiebener, Sally Nighswonger, Gary Adams, Janie Gould, Kirk Trekell, April Nighswonger and others not yet conrmed. “We want to educate the community on the museum,” Bush said. “We're working to get the community involved with the museum and learn a little more about local history. Night at the Museum will provide another in a series of interactive events. Others previously held include a craft day, trick or treating at Halloween, book signing, pictures with Santa, art displays and the First Friday Art Walk. “More than 200 people visited the museum for the Pictures with Santa night,” Bush said. Guests will be served refreshments while participating in Woods County history. Tickets for the event are $3.00 for ages 6 years or older. Children under 6 are free when accompanied by an adult. A special rate is available for families at $10. Don't miss this chance to see mannequins and the museum come to life as never before.

Bank of Freedom

Branch of Alva State Bank & Trust Company Danny McCuiston FREEDOM, OKLAHOMA • 580-621-3276

By Lynn L. Martin The Freedom School Board had a very short meeting Monday night. There was some desire for a quick meeting because a basketball game was occurring in the gymnasium that some of the members wanted to see. Probably the most significant item handled in the 18-minute meeting was rehiring Superintendent Danny McCuiston as district superintendent for the 201516 school year. The vote was unanimous with no discussion. During his report, McCuiston reported that local revenue “rebounded almost $18,500 this month,” with the main increase being in gross production taxes. He said that the district has already collected $18,935 more than they did the entire fiscal year last year. He mentioned that Woods County Treasurer David Manning reported ad valorum revenues collected of $375,208.02 out of a projected $640,278.86. He said they anticipate a positive cash flow for the year of $36,400.37. The school district received a workman’s compensation insurance refund of $1,250 for the improved safety record experience in this past year. McCuiston said he asked the refund be applied to next year’s insurance premium. Other than approving routine agenda items such as minutes and activity fund expenditures, along with bills paid from the general fund, the building fund and the child nutrition fund, the only other item was a vote to support the work “embedded in the resolution: For the People: A Vision for Oklahoma Public Education.”

By Yvonne Miller A contract for the 2015-16 school year received board approval for Superintendent Brad Morris at the South Barber Board of Education Monday evening. The superintendent’s contract approval came after two executive sessions totaling 55 minutes for that purpose and also to discuss nonelected personnel matters. No action was taken on the latter. President Steve Allen presided over the meeting attended by all board members including: Dana Roark, Mark Pollock, Mike Anderson, Jeff Black, Deb Helfrich and Dooli Rugg. Also present at the table were: Superintendent Morris and Board Clerk Julie Johnson. Tim Rector resigned as the head football coach at the high school. When asked by the Newsgram the reason for his resignation, Rector said, “The enjoyment and satisfaction I got from it did not outweigh the amount of time and effort I put into the job. It became a job that took more time and responsibility than I was willing to commit to for another year. I love working with kids and will continue to do so in different ways.” Longtime English Teacher Melva Armbruster has taught 33 and a half years. She received board approval for her resignation effective at the end of this 2014-2015 school year.

Janet Cook was approved as interim cheer coach in a vote of 6-1 with Black voting no. Government teacher Tim Carey was approved as an assistant track coach. The board held another five minute executive session to discuss negotiations with no action taken. Payment of current bills of $436,503.78 received board approval. Superintendent Reports on Upcoming Board Election and More Superintendent Morris confirmed the filing deadline for people who want to run for one of the four open board seats in the April election is Tuesday, January 27 by noon at the Barber County Courthouse. Those seats are currently held by Dana Roark, who is at-large; Jeff Black who is District 1, Position 3; Deb Helfrich who is District 2, Position 1; and Mike Anderson, who is District 2, Position 2. Morris said he won’t know any details about school finance until after Gov. Brownback’s State-of-the-State address this Thursday, January 15. “We’ll hear what his (the governor’s) `roadmap’ is,” the superintendent said. “I’m starting to hear they will makes cuts in education because the state is so in debt.” He also said there is once again talk of forcing consolidations of schools and

superintendents. “We need to be diligent and call our representatives and senators,” Superintendent Morris said. Giving a building update, he said a new dishwasher was installed over Christmas break at the grade school. He has numerous workshops posted on the board for board members. January is School Board Recognition Month, a time for the district to say thank you to board members. He planned to present board members certificates of appreciation, but the awards had not yet arrived. When Helfrich attended the state school board convention, she registered for numerous drawings, one of which was “Schools for Quality Education” annual dues of $325. Morris said she won that for the school and thanked Helfrich for her efforts. Principals Report on Students, Events and More Pre-K - 6th Grade Principal Marcia Cantrell reported on the Leadership Team’s progress regarding the elementary’s On-Watch status. She said meetings with the on-watch person from the state are going well. The team met with teachers to discuss the indicators they have finished and the ones in progress. Those indicators are: Leadership and Decision Making; Curriculum, Assessment and Instructional Planning; Classroom Instruction; Parent, School, Community; Tiered Support. Teachers collaborate weekly. The Knights of Columbus Free Throw Contest is at the elementary gym this Sunday, Jan. 18, at 1:30 p.m. Sixth graders had a pizza party when they all met their goals for the Accelerated Reader program. Fifth graders will go to the Kiowa Manor January 22 to make crafts and visit with residents. Grade 7-12 Principal Brent Shaffer said 49 students made the honor roll. Of those eight made the Superintendent’s Honor Roll.

By Stacy Sanborn Waynoka’s board of education met Monday evening with all members present except Clint Olson. With enough to call a quorum, the group zipped through the agenda items, quickly approving the consent agenda, which includes the financial reports and general fund encumbrances. Superintendent Loren Tackett elaborated on the school’s financial situation stating that December and January were big months for ad valorem taxes since it’s the time everybody pays taxes. He said that December’s totals were up from last year and even some of January’s totals had been posted and showed $11,000 had already been collected, leaving the amount at right under $10,000 more than last year. He said collections were up and went on to

say that the county-4 mill, their part of ad valorem from different school districts, was up as well by about $12,000 more than last year. He said they should get about $20,000 to $25,000 when the final numbers come in for that fund. Moving on to gross production tax, Tackett said it will be about six months until the school sees a decrease in revenue due to the decline in oil prices, but for January, the highest amount in the last three years had been paid in at $138,000, leaving them in good shape. In the superintendent’s report, Tackett said he will be attending Legislative Day in Oklahoma City for the next couple of days to discuss plans with legislators for the upcoming session. He talked about some of the problems the school had with the heaters, but stated that all issues had been straightened out.

He finished his report after he told the board that three vehicles were purchased shortly after the last board meeting and that with the insurance check they had received along with the trade-ins, only about $68,000 was spent. In the principal’s report, Michael Meriwether said that the big buzz around school was the incentive trip and as of Monday, a decision had been made to take the students with math grades above 8 percent and the highest amount of book points to Elevation Station – a 5,000 square foot trampoline park. He said 140 students will be taking the trip. The meeting then went into executive session to vote to accept or not accept resignations received to date and for the consideration and possible action to reemploy Superintendent Tackett.

Sunday wreck takes life of Cherokee man By Marione Martin Theodore W. Pshigoda, 79, of Cherokee died of injuries received in a one-vehicle accident Sunday afternoon, Jan. 11. According to the Oklahoma Highway Patrol (OHP), the wreck occurred at 4:25 p.m. on U.S. Highway 64 one-tenth of a mile east of County Road 600 in Alfalfa County. The OHP said Pshigoda was driving a 2008 Isuzu pickup westbound on U.S. Highway 64 when, for an

unknown reason, he lost control of the pickup and traveled off the north side of the highway in a broad slide. The pickup traveled down into the ditch and started to roll. It rolled one time ejecting Pshigoda who came to rest along the fence row. The pickup continued to roll one more time, coming to rest on its wheels in a wheat field. Pshigoda was taken by Alfalfa County EMS to Share Medical Center where he was pronounced dead on

arrival of head, trunk internal, arm and leg injuries. The weather at the time was light rain or mist. The pickup was equipped with seatbelts which were not in use. Trooper Darrin Lancaster of the Alfalfa County detachment investigated. He was assisted by Trooper Randy McCullough, Alfalfa County Sheriff’s Department, Alfalfa County EMS and Cherokee Fire Department.

WICHITA, Kan. (AP) — Kansas recorded its lowest birth rate in 2013 since the state began keeping birth records in 1912, which reflects a national trend toward fewer births, according to an annual vital statistics report. The report said there were 13.4 births per 1,000 people, or 38,805 babies, in 2013. That's a decline of 4.3 percent from 2012, The Wichita Eagle reported (http://bit.ly/1stTYZK ). Kansas State sociology professor Laszlo Kulcsar, a demographer, said people are deciding to have fewer children for a variety of reasons, including the economy. "The ideas about families have

changed a lot, and today people don't really want to have a gazillion kids for a number of reasons," he said. "They want to have one or two or maybe not even one." Kansas' low numbers mirror what is happening in most of the country. In 2013, the national birth rate for women under 30 and the general fertility rate were at all-time lows, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Kulcsar said the numbers are influenced by aging baby boomers because, with the birth rate based on the number of births for every 1,000 people, there are fewer women of child-bearing age.

The economy also affects birth rates, if only temporarily, he said. "I think it's still having an effect. The economy is bouncing back, but having a child is a major decision so people are not just going to do this willy-nilly if they see a new factory going up in town," Kulcsar said. "It's much easier to scare people into waiting than provide an economic environment that will make them feel like they're back to normal and should have a child." The vital statistics report also said teen pregnancies in 2013 were the lowest in 20 years and the abortion rate increased slightly to about 97 abortions per 1,000 live births.

Kansas birth rate in 2013 lowest since recording began

Police arrest suspect in Wichita bar shooting WICHITA, Kan. (AP) — Wichita police have arrested a 29-year-old man in the shooting that left two men dead outside a Wichita bar. Authorities say a tip to Crime Stoppers via a cell phone text message identified the suspect and his address.

Wichita Crime Commission Director Gordon Bassham says police took the suspect into custody without incident Monday afternoon. He was booked on two counts of second-degree murder, aggravated battery, and felon in possession of a firearm. Authorities say 28-year-old Andrew

Smith and 32-year-old Quentin Brown died in the early Saturday shooting outside a bar called The Place. Two other people were wounded. A 25-year-old was released from a hospital after being treated for a gunshot to the leg. Officials say a 36-year-old man is in serious condition after being shot in the stomach.

Lighthearted quotes of wisdom (From an email sent by a friend.) • Wouldn’t it be great if we could put ourselves in the dryer for ten minutes, come out wrinkle-free and three sizes smaller? • Last year I joined a support group for procrastinators. We haven’t met yet. • I don’t trip over things; I do random gravity checks. • I don’t need anger management. I need people to stop pissing me off. • Old age is coming at a really bad time. • When I was a child, I thought nap time was a punishment. Now, as a grown up, it just feels like a small vacation.

I have “wisdom highlights,” and I’m very wise. • My people skills are just fine. It’s my tolerance for idiots that needs work. • If God wanted me to touch my toes, he would’ve put them on my knees. • The kids text me “plz,” which is shorter than please. I text back “no,” which is shorter than “yes.” • I’m going to retire and live off of my savings. Not sure what I’ll do that second week.

• When did it change from “We the people” to “Screw the people?” • I’ve lost my mind, and I’m pretty sure my kids took it. • Even duct tape can’t fix “stupid,” but it can muffle the sound. • Why do I have to press 1 for English when you’re just gonna transfer me to someone I can’t understand anyway? • Of course I talk to myself; sometimes I need expert advice. • Oops! Did I roll my eyes out loud? • At my age, “getting lucky” means walking into a room and remembering what I came in there for. • Chocolate comes from cocoa, which is a tree. That makes it a plant, which means ... chocolate is salad! Happy New Year everyone! Treat each day as if you will not see another one.

Celebrating women managing the farm In an industry traditionally dominated by men, women have a strong and growing presence in U.S. agriculture. In fact, more and more women are choosing to own and manage their own farms. At the 2015 Women Managing the Farm Conference, the ultimate goal is to provide women with the tools they need to remain sustainable.

I Believe – Burlington FFA Advisor Bradshaw’s journey to honor FFA Creed author

E.M. Tiffany’s vision for agriculture recited by FFA members for 85 years By Yvonne Miller This reporter wants to quickly note the only thing I have to do with this incredible story is bringing it to the Newsgram. This monumental discovery is thanks to Burlington FFA Advisor Travis Bradshaw, who visited the little town of Lyndon, Kansas, birthplace of one of the most iconic but little-known men of agricultural education: E.M. Tiffany, author of the FFA Creed. This is Bradshaw’s 11th year as vocational agriculture teacher and FFA chapter advisor at Burlington. Visiting Tiffany’s hometown was on Bradshaw’s bucket list. Burlington High School graduate Lacey Newlin wrote an intriguing article about Bradshaw’s journey that appeared in the High Plains Journal

Dec. 19. The article can be seen in its entirety at www.hpj.com. The link is on Marci Hyde’s Facebook page. The article can also be seen in FFAnewhorizons.org winter 2014-15 edition. More Than FFA Creed Author’s Name To Be Recognized Thanks to Bradshaw Bradshaw and Burlington FFA Reporter Bayli Hyde compiled the following condensed information from Newlin’s article. It tells his story from having an idea that’s turned into a piece of history for the National FFA Organization: For 85 years, millions of FFA members have recited the FFA Creed. These words were written by E.M. Tiffany in 1928 and adopted

As a result of Burlington FFA Chapter Advisor Travis Bradshaw's persevering interest and research, he found FFA Creed author E.M. Tiffany's hometown of Lyndon, Kansas. Upon visiting he found no recognition for this man who wrote a document that's been recited by millions of FFA members for 85 years. Bradshaw enlightened the community and these girls from Burlington's FFA Chapter traveled to Lyndon with him to set up a display in the town's museum about Tiffany's historical contribution. Shown setting up their display at the museum are Chapter President Sarah Garvie, Vice-President Allyson Stewart and Reporter Bayli Hyde. Burlington FFA's efforts spurred the town of Lyndon and Osage County to make proper recognition of Tiffany. Photo courtesy of Marci Hyde

by the National FFA Organization in 1930. While many former members remember these words, they may not remember the history of the man who wrote them. Recent efforts by the Burlington FFA Chapter are hoping to change this. This past summer, Travis Bradshaw, Burlington FFA advisor, took a trip to Lyndon, Kansas, the birthplace of Erwin Milton Tiffany, author of the FFA Creed. He was surprised to see that no monument existed in the town that recognized E.M. Tiffany. He soon found that nobody in the town really knew who Tiffany was. While digging through the files at the Osage County Historical Society in Lyndon, Bradshaw found Tiffany’s obituary,

Property dispute, gunshot lead to charges By Marione Martin A property line dispute led to the arrest of a Cherokee man on a firearms charge. According to court papers, on Dec. 29, about 10:55 a.m. Alfalfa County Undersheriff Glenn Oister was dispatched to check a report of shots fired three-quarters of a mile north of Cherokee on the east side of state Highway 8 at the residence of Clinton Michael Green. At the location, Oister spoke with Skylee Fox who said he along with Kyle Stonehocker, Jonathan Davis and Rebecca Salinas were hired by Lynn Puffinbarger to weld a corner post next to Green’s property. Fox said he was welding on the post when he heard a shot. He said he looked up and saw Green holding a shotgun. Green screamed at him to get off of his property. Oister spoke to Salinas who said she was standing next to Fox when she looked up and saw Green walking toward her with what appeared to be a shotgun

pointed at her. She said Green was about five feet away when he turned slightly to the left and discharged the weapon into the ground. Fox then stood up to talk to Green. She said Green pointed the gun at Fox’s chest and told him to get off of his property. Then Green went inside his house. Oister spoke with Puffinbarger, who showed him a Taylor & Associates Engineer’s Survey for the property. Oister also saw the survey peg was on the opposite side of the property line from where they were welding, which would indicate they were not on Green’s property. Oister spoke with Stonehocker and Davis. They said they were on the other side of the tree row in the truck. They said all they heard was the gunshot and they did not witness any of the events. The distance from the post to where the shot hit the ground was 21 feet. Oister located a spent Remington 20 gauge 7.5 shotgun shell on the ground

approximately 40 feet southwest of where Fox was welding. Oister spoke with Green who said he saw people trespassing on his property. He said he took his shotgun and fired it near them. Green said he was not trying to shoot them. He just wanted to scare them away and make them leave his property. Oister told Green he was under arrest for felony pointing of a firearm. Green asked to go in his house to get his jacket. Oister saw a shotgun sitting on the kitchen table and asked Green if that was the gun he discharged. He said yes. Oister picked up the Winchester Model 1200 pump 20 gauge shotgun and unloaded three live rounds. Green was handcuffed, searched and taken to the Alfalfa County Sheriff’s Office. The shotgun and ammunition were seized as evidence. On Jan. 7 in Alfalfa County, Clinton Michael Green, 63, was charged with feloniously carrying a firearm, a felony.

Traffic stop results in drug charges By Marione Martin A traffic stop resulted in a felony drug charge for an Alva man. Gary Trucky Maxwell, 37, of Alva has been charged with a felony of possession of a controlled dangerous substance in Alfalfa County. He was also charged with misdemeanors of possession of a controlled dangerous substance and unlawful possession of paraphernalia. According to court records, Alfalfa County Deputy Sheriff Dillin Munholland was on routine patrol in the area of Ohio and Fifth streets on Jan. 7 about 10:36 p.m. He noticed a

white truck with a camper shell turn northbound from Fifth Street onto Ohio. He noticed the vehicle was swerving back and forth across the traffic lanes and driving down the center of the street. When the vehicle stopped at the intersection of Main and Ohio, it was in the southbound lane. The vehicle then turned eastbound onto Main St. without using a turn signal. Munholland activated his emergency lights to conduct a traffic stop. Munholland approached the driver’s side window and spoke to the driver, later identified as Maxwell.

He asked for license and insurance. Maxwell failed to make eye contact and his hands were shaking. He handed Munholland his license but said he did not have a copy of his insurance. Munholland asked Maxwell to step out of the truck and sit in his patrol vehicle. He observed Maxwell continued to act in a suspicious manner. Munholland had dispatch check Maxwell’s license and check for warrants. At that time Woods County Deputy Adam Honeyman advised via radio that Maxwell had a history of narcotics. Munholland asked Maxwell if there was anything illegal in his vehicle. Maxwell took a deep breath, paused and said no. Munholland told Maxwell he was going to conduct a free air sniff with his K-9. As Munholland exited to get his K-9, Cherokee Police Officer Matt Jones arrived. Munholland asked him to pat down Maxwell. K-9 Joshi alerted on the passenger door of the truck. Munholland heard

Cherokee man charged with assault By Marione Martin Cherokee Police were contacted to investigate a domestic situation in progress on Saturday, Jan. 3. According to court records, Officer Matt Jones went to a home in the 200 block of S. Nebraska about 11:54 a.m. When he arrived and started walking to the door, he heard a loud hammering noise. When he reached the door, he saw Joseph Tucker nailing a piece of wood over a broken window in the door. Officer Jones reported smelling a strong odor of alcoholic beverages. He asked Tucker if his wife was home, and Tucker said no. He saw that Tucker had a bloody mouth. Jones contacted the Cherokee Police Department dispatch to call the reporting party and find out where she was located. Dispatch said she was at the Jiffy Trip. Jones made contact with Sereptia Tucker at the Jiffy Trip. He observed

what appeared to be swelling around the nose area of her face and marks all around her neck, chest and arms. He asked what happened. Tucker said her husband called her names, threw her on the floor and attempted to choke her with a phone cord. She said he then started pushing her face into the carpet. She was beginning to get up with he pushed her back down. She said she head-butted her husband in the face in defense during the fight. Jones photographed the marks on Tucker. Officer Jones then contacted Sgt. Andrew Minson for backup before going back to the Tucker residence. Mrs. Tucker told Jones her husband had been suicidal during the day and in the past. Jones went back to the residence and knocked on the door three times announcing “police department.” Tucker came to the door, and Jones asked him to come outside and talk. He refused. Jones advised him he was under arrest and to come outside. He refused. Jones told him they were going to enter by kicking the door if he continued to refuse to come out. After telling him to stand back, they kicked the door open and took Tucker into custody. Jones noticed blood on the front porch and

photographed the marks on Mr. Tucker. He then took him to the Alfalfa County Jail. Jones said Tucker stated he wanted to die every day and asked Sheriff Wallace to shoot him. He started having seizurelike symptoms. Jailer Jessica Jackson called for the ambulance immediately. The Alfalfa County EMS took Tucker to Share Medical Center in Alva. The doctor there said he was coming down from the effects of drugs and alcohol. Officer Jones contacted Mrs. Tucker after the doctor saw Mr. Tucker to let her know he was doing better. She said she had been trying to call 911 all morning, but her husband broke her cellphone a few days prior and took her kid’s iPods that had an app to allow her to make phone calls. At the hospital, Mr. Tucker tested positive for methamphetamine. He was released and taken back to the Alfalfa County Jail. On Jan. 6 in Alfalfa County, Joseph Shawn Tucker, 26, was charged with domestic assault and battery by strangulation, a felony. He was also charged with two misdemeanors of obstructing an officer and interruption, disruption or interference with emergency telephone.

Jones raise his voice and tell Maxwell to put his hands behind his back. Maxwell was handcuffed. Jones said he could feel what he thought was a pill bottle, a pipe and a syringe inside Maxwell’s pocket. Jones retrieved an orange pill bottle from Maxwell’s jacket pocket. It contained a clear plastic baggie with an off-white crystal substance that later field tested positive for methamphetamine. Munholland retrieved a glass pipe used for smoking and a syringe with a clear substance inside. Sheriff Rick Wallace arrived and took Maxwell to the Alfalfa County Jail. While searching the vehicle and conducting inventory, Jones located a cigarette package in the center console of the truck which contained a green leafy substance wrapped in a piece of plastic.

Forecasters say light snow Filing deadline for possible in parts of Oklahoma open seats on Kiowa Council and South Barber School Board TULSA, Okla. (AP) — Some parts of Oklahoma could get a light dusting of snow on Wednesday, but forecasters say any wintry weather is expected to give way to a warmup later in the week. The National Weather Service says there's a very low chance for light snow or flurries Tuesday night into Wednesday morning across much of the state. Forecasters say there are also

chances for light rain or snow across east central Oklahoma and light rain across southeast Oklahoma and west central Arkansas. Little to no accumulation is expected, but if snow does occur, a few slick spots may develop because temperatures are expected to be below freezing. Warmer weather is expected to return by Thursday and highs will be in the 50s for Friday and the weekend.

Baby Asian elephant at Oklahoma City Zoo is named OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) — An Asian elephant born last month at the Oklahoma City Zoo finally has a name. Zoo officials say the elephant will be called Achara (A-ka-ra) after the name received about 13,000 votes on the zoo's website. The name is of Thai origin and means "pretty angel." Other names considered were Biju, an Indian word that means awesome,

and Divya, which also is an Indian word that means divine. Achara has spent little time outdoors since her Dec. 22 birth because of cold temperatures. She is expected to go outside more when temperatures are about 55 degrees. Achara is the second elephant born at the zoo since 2011. Her half-sister, Malee, was born in 2011.

Obama's cybersecurity proposals part of decade-old programs By Jack Gillum WASHINGTON (AP) — President Barack Obama said Tuesday that recent cyberthreats to Sony and the military's U.S. Central Command are reminders of the serious threats facing the nation. But an Associated Press review shows that some of his plans are retreads from years past. Obama laid out his plans this week as part of a push for new cybersecurity legislation — a week before his State of the Union address — that increases government information-sharing and protects businesses from lawsuits for revealing cyberthreats. Yet the president's proposals are similar to congressional legislation that has been languishing on Capitol Hill, in part over privacy concerns. The White House is hoping a recent spate of cyberattacks and data breaches — including November's hacking at Sony Pictures Entertainment, which the administration blamed on North Korea — will spur lawmakers to take up the issue. Privacy advocates also criticized other elements of this plan this week, especially involving data-sharing between companies and the government, in light of an ongoing debate about the scope of U.S. government surveillance and bulk-data collection. The president unveiled his plans Tuesday at the National Cybersecurity and Communications Integration Center just outside Washington, saying cyberthreats pose "an enormous challenge" in which the U.S. must be "upping our game." He said cybercriminals are doing as much damage, or more, than traditional criminals. "As a nation, we are making progress. We are more prepared to deal with cyberattacks, but attackers are getting more sophisticated," Obama said. "All of us — government and industry — need to be doing better." A key part of the proposals, which have received support from some Republicans in Congress, would enable cybersecurity information-sharing between U.S. agencies and the private sector. But that sharing has already been taking place — with uneven results — for more than 16 years. President Bill Clinton established the earliest Information Sharing and Analysis Centers in May 1998. These were intended to collect, analyze and distribute warnings

about cyberthreats within eight of the most important U.S. industries, including banking, transportation, communications and energy. In 2003, President George W. Bush moved responsibility for the warning centers from the FBI's now-defunct National Infrastructure Protection Center to the Homeland Security Department. The warning centers have since been expanded to cover 16 critical industries, and others — such as one covering retail stores — have launched separately. Some of the warning centers, such as the ones protecting banks and computer companies, are highly regarded. But others have been marked by uneven cooperation among members and confusion about roles during a cyberattack. The government's own $6.4 million Cyber Storm II exercise in March 2008, which simulated a large-scale cyberattack, revealed some confusion about alerts and fouled communications lines, such as when the Homeland Security Department shut off an encrypted message system over security concerns. Obama's plan would encourage the private sector to share cyberthreat information with the Homeland Security Department, according to a White House factsheet. Companies would qualify for targeted liability protection but would have to comply with certain privacy restrictions. Some congressional leaders had been looking for more cooperation between U.S. businesses and the civilian outfit at DHS — as opposed to the military's National Security Agency — that shares information about cyberattacks between the private sector and the government. The White House said this week that the proposals also would modernize U.S. laws to combat cybercrime, such as allowing for the prosecution of the sale of botnets, large numbers of hacked computers that can be directed remotely to attack targets and outlaw the sale of stolen credit card or bank account numbers. But experts said such crimes already are covered under other existing laws, such as conspiracy to commit computer crimes. "I don't think there are prosecutions going down the tubes because of the lack of legislation on this," said Mark Rasch, a

former cybercrimes federal prosecutor. Even with public-private information-sharing, such a program "isn't a silver bullet," said Mark Jaycox, a legislative analyst with the San Francisco-based Electronic Frontier Foundation, a civil liberties group. "We need to tackle the low-hanging fruit, the basic security precautions," he said, such as regularly updating computer servers and requiring robust passwords. Such issues could have played roles in recent high-profile breaches. The group said Obama's proposal "recycles old ideas that should remain where they've been since May 2011: on the shelf." While it said the government should have appropriate tools to investigate cybercrime, recent domestic surveillance revelations show law enforcement "certainly doesn't need more legal authorities to conduct digital surveillance." Disclosures by former NSA analyst Edward Snowden in 2013 showed the government was collecting phone records and digital communications of millions not suspected of a crime, prompting changes and calls from some lawmakers to curtail domestic surveillance programs. Also on Tuesday, U.S. officials testified before a House Foreign Affairs panel about the threat posed by North Korea, including the Sony attack. Gregory Touhill, a senior DHS official for cybersecurity operations and programs, told members that hackers exploited Sony using a "sophisticated worm" — a piece of malicious software — and tried to compromise the company's computer systems when turned on. The White House push comes after the Twitter and YouTube accounts for U.S. Central Command were taken over by hackers who claimed to be working on behalf of Islamic State militants on Monday. Other recent hackings at retailers including Target, Home Depot and Neiman Marcus have exposed the lack of uniform practices for alerting customers in the event of a breach. Sen. John McCain, a member of the Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs committee, said Tuesday he was "glad the administration is coming forward with a proposal" and "guardedly optimistic we can come up with legislation that we can work with the administration on."

FFA

family tree and several other pieces of information. While looking for further information, Bradshaw searched through phone records and was surprised to find Tiffany’s only child still living in Madison, Wisconsin. Jackson Tiffany is 88 years of age and was delighted for the chance to talk about his father. After the call, Bradshaw contacted his chapter reporter, Bayli Hyde, and explained his trip to Lyndon and his call with Jackson Tiffany. Hyde remembers her reaction to that phone call. “When he called me, I was really surprised there was nothing about E.M. Tiffany in his home town. I suggested creating a window display about E.M. Tiffany and the FFA in Lyndon’s town museum. “Before we made the display, we went to Indianapolis, Indiana, to the National FFA archives to see if anymore information could be found,” Hyde said. “Then we traveled to Madison to meet with Jackson Tiffany and hear his side of the story.” The interview was recorded by a local video production company and was the first time that Jackson Tiffany had sat down for an on-camera interview about his father. After returning from Wisconsin, the Burlington FFA chapter began work with the Lyndon historical society on the window display. Hyde enlisted the help of Burlington’s

chapter president, Sarah Garvie, and vice president Allyson Stewart for the special project. Now, with the display finished, patrons of the museum can learn about E.M. Tiffany and his lasting impression on the FFA. The Burlington FFA Chapter is also working with the town of Lyndon to build a permanent memorial to honor E.M. Tiffany. The Burlington FFA Chapter is planning to use the video footage to make a short documentary and educate future FFA members about the FFA Creed’s author. Bradshaw told the Newsgram the National FFA Organization gave him a $1,000 grant to help with this project. He also shared an intriguing fact he found in his research that makes you just shake your head. E.M. Tiffany’s class colors were blue and gold – that was 26 years before the National FFA Organization was formed. Newlin’s article concluded with the following comments from Bradshaw: “As the FFA grows and the amount of rural students in FFA continues to shrink as small farming communities dry up, more FFA members come from an urban setting,” Bradshaw

said. “While they are a vital part to the future of agriculture and the FFA, we sometimes get so far removed that we forget where our roots are. This is a way for generations in the future to actually come back to that creed and realize the man who wrote it and his work in agriculture. I think if anything, this is an inspiration to future FFA members to say I’m going to take what I learned here in agriculture or through the FFA and I’m going to apply those skills or life lessons to wherever the future may take me. “It’s an undeniably happy ending for this story. A teacher was given unfathomable joy and restitution for his passion for teaching agriculture. An FFA chapter will be able to share their information with an entire young nation. A son now knows just how significant his father was to an organization still inspired by words he wrote almost 85 years ago. A town absent a national celebrity now realizes the importance of a man who once called their city home, and a most encouraging individual is remembered for the prolific life he led.”

Sheriff: Mother of 2 boys shot in Wisconsin dies LANCASTER, Wis. (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Authorities say a mother who was shot along with her two sons in a southwestern Wisconsin village earlier this month has died. Grant County Sheriff Nate Dreckman said Tuesday that his office has been told by UW Hospital that Morgan Slaight has died from her injuries. Slaight and her 8-year-old son, Joseph, were critically wounded in the shootings Jan. 2 in the village of Monfort. Another son, 6-year-old Jaxon Slaight, was killed. All three were shot in the head with a .22-caliber pistol. Dreckman says his office continues to investigate and has not determined what happened. Slaight and two of her children had been living with her sister in Montfort, a community of about 700. The sheriff has said she was estranged from her husband, who is living in Oklahoma.

On Jan. 12 at 9 a.m. in the Woodward County Courthouse new District Judge Justin Eilers was sworn in by retiring District Judge Ray Dean Linder. Linder had held this position since 1983. Approximately 40 people -- family and friends of Judge Justin Eilers -- were in the court room. Judge Paul K. Woodward of Garfield County was also there as a witness and will now take over as presiding judge of the 18 County District, a position previously held by Judge Ray Dean Linder. Photo by Jon Linder

United Airlines could create up to 2,000 airport jobs CHICAGO (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; United Airlines is considering cutting up to 2,000 jobs at 28 airports around the country and hiring a contractor to do the work. The airline needs to make sure its costs are competitive, and so it is con-

sidering outsourcing jobs of some bag handlers and customer-service agents, United spokesman Luke Punzenberger said on Tuesday. Employees were notified of the potential cuts on Monday, Punzenberger said. He said United was discussing the matter with the International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers, which represents the affected workers. The move follows United's decision last year to outsource more than 600 jobs at 12 airports around the country. Most were at airports served by smaller United Express regional flights. United Continental Holdings Inc. earned $1.12 billion in the first nine months of 2014, eclipsing the $571 million it made in all of 2013. Shares of United rose 49 cents to

close at $66.41. They have lost less than 1 percent in January after gaining 77 percent in 2014. The airports at which United is considering outsourcing jobs of employees including baggage handlers and customer-service agents: Anchorage, Alaska; Atlanta; Billings, Montana; Boise, Idaho; Fort Myers, Florida; Greensboro, North Carolina; Hartford, Connecticut; Indianapolis; Jacksonville, Florida; Kansas City; McAllen, Texas; Miami; Nashville; Norfolk, Virginia; Oklahoma City; Omaha, Nebraska; Ontario, California; Providence, Rhode Island; Raleigh-Durham, North Carolina; Reno, Nevada; Richmond, Virginia; San Antonio, Texas; Sacramento, California; San Jose, California; Spokane, Washington; St. Louis; Tulsa, Oklahoma; West Palm Beach, Florida.

State Fair officials begin work on updating master plan HUTCHINSON, Kan. (AP) — Kansas State Fair officials are considering two companies to write a master plan to address renovations at the aging fairgrounds. The plan could include renovating the Depression-era Bison Arena and an Expo Center built in the 1960s, Fair Manager Denny Stoecklein said. The last $29 million master plan was approved by the Kansas Legislature in 2001 and it took several years to complete the recommended renovations. Several costly projects were left out of that plan, The Hutchinson News reported (http://bit.ly/1FPIGoP ). Fair board members decided on Friday to continue the master plan process and Stoecklein said the next step will be for the two companies to visit the fairgrounds to evaluate the property before submitting their bids. He hopes that will be done by spring. In November, board members began considering a list of future projects, including the renovation of the fair's birthing center, replacing a 40-year-old roof on the Pride of Kansas building and air conditioning at the Eisenhower Building. The largest projects are likely to be

the Bison and Expo buildings. Kansas Department of Agriculture officials have considered turning the Bison Arena into a showcase for modern agriculture and selling the project to other agriculture-based companies as an investment. The project would cost an estimated $1.5 million. Even if that project doesn't happen, the state fire marshal is asking the fair to install sprinklers and revamp the exits. The estimated cost for both

projects is about $444,000. The board's recently approved fiscal 2016 budget includes a request to state lawmakers for $6.8 million to renovate or rebuild the Expo Center, which has an indoor arena and is one of the fair's most frequently used buildings in the off season. That includes about $1.3 million in funding the state did not pay the fair as part of a required match to finance the fair's capital improvement fund.
