Janie (Miller) Woods is the daughter of John and Bev Miller who started Pioneer Days in Kiowa 29 years ago. She always returns to Kiowa for the annual event. Janie rides a float with her children on the left side of the table, Kenzie and Cooper Woods, who look like they could be wearing Grandpa’s extra cowboy hats. The Millers’ niece, Amy Mascarina (mostly hidden), usually flies in from New York to take part in the festivities. She also rides the float with her children Lucas and Stella Mascarina, who have their own western hats. Photo by Yvonne Miller

Known as the “rope man,” Buddy Williams is dressed as a pioneer character and is really good at crackin' a long whip he made from one of the thick ropes he manufactures in Kiowa. He entertains the Pioneer Days crowd prior to the skit. His grandaughter Aydan Bryan also popped the whip, a skill he undoubtedly taught her. Photo by Yvonne Miller

Miller's Arena was busy Saturday and Sunday afternoons with cowboy competitions during the 29th Annual Kiowa Pioneer Days. This is one of the bulldoggin' cowboys taking down a steer.

The arena was lined with spectators. Bev Miller said they sold over 200 hamburgers at the concession stand.

Alva school board hires three teachers

By Lynn L. Martin The Alva school board is hiring earlier for next year because teachers are in short supply. Many current teachers are dropping out of education because of rules that put their jobs at risk if students perform poorly on endof-instruction tests.

Caroline Taylor and Audrey Richmond will join the Washington School staff and Chasity Enck will take a job at Lincoln School.

Amelia Bushman’s resignation was accepted; Bushman had already taken a leave of absence for one year while having children, but now another is on the way. Also, the resignation of Charly Roach was accepted. She is moving from the area.

Superintendent Steve Parkhurst announced that the Oklahoma Secondary

School Athletic Association sent the Alva Schools a check of $6,000 to help pay their expenses at the State Basketball Tournament. He said the amount pretty well matched what the school spent in motel costs, meals and transportation.

In his financial report, the superintendent said the district has collected from all income sources 106 percent of the estimate by the auditor. At present the revenue totals $9,776,357.85, which is $1,309,216 ahead of last year.

He is urging the building principals to submit any repair needs soon. He said, “We’re in really good shape and we’ll likely have a carry-over report at the May meeting.”

The district had solicited bids for fleet insurance and no local vendors submitted any bids. Their previous

vendor, State Farm, had notified the district they were no longer insuring school vehicles. Parkhurst said, “We’re going to have to go outside of Alva to find insurance. No one wants to insure school buses anymore.”

The board approved a list of surplus items that are being removed from storage at the Longfellow School storm shelter room. Most items on the list are obsolete audio-visual equipment such See Teachedrs Page 52

Lynn Says

Might as well get a deer hunting license for my van

By Lynn L. Martin We were driving back from a Garden City, Kan., wedding around 10:30 p.m. on a Saturday evening a couple weeks ago when from out of nowhere a big deer bounded from the right side into the front grill of the van.

The collision was instantaneous. No time to lift a foot off the floor and stomp the brake.

The collision didn’t seem to affect the track of the van nor the lighting of the road ahead so I just kept going.

I was locked in at 65 mph on the speed control about 10 miles north of Coldwater, Kan., in totally dark boondocks.

My thinking was to stop in Coldwater and take a look at the damage.

However, because the van was driving well I figured we could make it on back to Alva.

Boy, I was wrong.

My helper that night was Rocki Long, a Review-Courier employee.

We pulled into a closed convenience store lot to take advantage of their fuel pump lighting. When I tried to open the driver’s side door it resisted

with a crunch of metal. I managed to shove it open far enough to exit and then discovered the impact had taken out the left headlight and clobbered the grill. Oddly, the damage from the big animal was above the bumper and below the windshield.

We re-entered the van with the intention of driving on to Alva. To my surprise, the van did not want to move.

We managed to hit a speed of one or two mph and pull out onto the highway and then immediately chose to park it because that was as fast as it was going to go.

Rocki and I had zero cell phone coverage from our ATT phones. That’s typical in southern Kansas. About this time a cop pulled up behind us and inquired as to what was happening.

I explained we hit a deer about ten minutes earlier and it appeared the van was done for the night.

He was very kind and let us use his cell phone to make about a half-dozen calls each. The van was loaded with lots of expensive photo and video gear and we didn’t want to leave it on the street overnight. He managed to get a local wrecker to make the pickup and we arranged for him to store it inside in his shop.

We failed to make connection with any Alva wrecker service that evening. I fortunately had all their numbers in my

cell phone.

So here we are in a freezing cold Kansas night while waiting for Marione to come and get us. There was a motel next door. I awoke the owner and asked if we could rent a room for a couple of hours. He gave me a very suspicious look and said, “Nope, its the same for two hours as it is all night.”

So around midnight Marione showed up and we started the 90-minute trip home. She offered to let me drive.

About 10 miles south of Coldwater another deer bounded across our path and later a huge bird rose up from the highway. immediately scaring us again.

From what I hear, the van is considered “totaled” by the insurance company.

We were very lucky in three ways: 1.) I’m very glad the big deer didn’t crash through the windshield. In fact, I’m surprised the airbags didn’t deploy.

2.) I am soooo glad I didn’t stop to inspect the damage at the time of the initial collision. Since the van wouldn’t travel after my stop in Coldwater, if the same thing had happened 10 miles north of town in the dead of night with no cell phone service, who knows how long we would have been stuck there with light-weight clothing before somebody came along.

3.) I am soooo glad my attempt to drive the van on to Alva failed, because had it given up 10 miles south of Coldwater, we would have had an even worse freezing and no-cell-phone situation as the highway south of town has even less traffic than the highway north of town.

I’m certainly appreciative of the total kindness of the Coldwater policeman.

I lucked out in reporting the deer collision with him 10 minutes after it happened. Later, Stan Kline told me that in Kansas one is required to report a deer collision just like a car collision.

I didn’t know that. Now you know!

Alica Hall, one of my wedding photographer helpers, and I have hit a total of four deer returning from Kansas weddings. We are thinking of adding a surcharge to our wedding price list for Kansas deer danger.

Cherokee schools rehire all certified staff

by Lynn L. Martin The Cherokee School Board met Monday night even though their superintendent could not be present. The board handled all the regular monthly items such as approving minutes of previous meetings, approving encumbrances and receiving reports from administrators and the school lunch program.

Kayla Puffinbarger presented the financial reports and explained some of the expenditures. The Cherokee schools have over $919,737.81 more in the general fund than at the same time last year. The building fund is down by $20,279.70 and the sinking fund is down by $7,508.12.

There are other funds, such as activity accounts, that influence this final number but the district is up $905,542.62 from a year ago.

Next year’s school calendar was approved by the board. The first day of school for students will be Aug. 14.

Christmas break will run from Dec. 22 – Jan. 2. The last day of school will be May 15, 2015.

A football schedule for next fall was distributed. The first game will be away at Pioneer on Sept. 5. The last game on the

schedule is Boise City at home on Nov. 7. After that, the playoffs will begin that could continue the season until Dec. 6.

Principal Jeremy Hickman mentioned that the freshman academic team went to state. Also, golf, FFA, track and speech are all traveling a lot.

Only one bid was received for about 15 acres of lawn care. The rate was $45 per acre for a total of $675 for all acres.

This does not include the football and baseball fields. The matter was tabled until more details can be obtained.

The school board agreed to continue using the OKTLE method for teacher evaluation. The cost is $27.50 per teacher.

Two resignations were accepted: Morganne Hopkins from the elementary school and Lucinda Ludwig from the high school. Kadie Lancaster and Shelly Burleson were hired as elementary school teachers for next year. Jeremy Hickman was provided an extra duty stipend of $1,600 as high school assistant football coach and Allyson McFeeters received an extra duty stipend of $500 for the job of junior high assistant track coach.

All certified teachers were rehired after a one-hour executive session. They

are: Rashele Blakley, Jana Brown, Shelly Davis, Gayla Failes, Tamara Goeken, Cindy Graham, Matthew Guffy, Stephanie Hines, Greg Jantzen, Anita Jordan, Lance Leslie, Jason Paris, Bryce Schanbacher, Cindy Schanbacher, Ashley Schmitz, Charity VanMeter, George Weve and Bretta Woodard from the secondary school.

Elementary teachers rehired: Alison Goeken, Cathy Graham, Janet Hester, Steve Hickman, Ladonna Hoggard, Christa Hughes, Patty Means, Alicia Mitchell, Heidi Newlin, Charmaine Rathgeber, Ruth Richmond, Stephanie Shepard, Nicole Simmons and Stephanie Weve.

Under new business, the board agreed to have no school on April 25, since more than 80 kids will be gone. The day will be used for a professional development day to replace one at the end of school.

A special meeting will be held on April 9 at 5:30 p.m. for a presentation from Scott Vrooman, architect, to explain the construction management styles for the upcoming construction projects.

By Charles Babington, Associated Press WASHINGTON (AP) — Several big corporations have reaped millions of dollars from “Obamacare” even as they support GOP candidates who vow to repeal the law. This condemn-while-benefiting strategy angers Democrats, who see some of their top congressional candidates struggling against waves of antiObamacare ads partly funded by these companies.

Among the corporations is a familiar Democratic nemesis, Koch Industries, the giant conglomerate headed by the billionaire brothers Charles and David Koch. They and some conservative allies are spending millions of dollars to hammer Democratic senators in North Carolina, Alaska, Colorado, Iowa and elsewhere, chiefly for backing President Barack Obama’s health care overhaul.

Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., renewed his criticisms of the Kochs this week. In a Senate chamber speech, Reid noted that Koch Industries

benefited from a temporary provision of the health care law.

The Early Retiree Reinsurance Program, Reid said, “helped the company pay health insurance costs for its retirees who are not covered by Medicare.” Reid asked sarcastically: “So it’s OK for Koch Industries to save money through Obamacare” even as Koch-related groups seek the law’s repeal.

When Congress enacted the health care law in 2010, it appropriated $5 billion for the temporary reinsurance program. The goal was to subsidize employers’ costs for workers who retire before they become eligible for Medicare. Hundreds of employers applied — many were corporations, cities and public universities — and virtually all the money was soon distributed.

“If the Affordable Care Act is so awful,” Reid asked, “why did Koch Industries use it to their advantage?”

Federal records show that Koch Industries received $1.4 million in early retiree subsidies. That’s considerably less than the sums many other employers received. A Koch Industries spokesman said he had no comment on Reid’s latest criticisms.

The Koch consortium may be the loudest “Obamacare” critic among the subsidized employers. But many others accepted the subsidies while heavily backing GOP House and Senate candidates, most of who call for repealing the 2010 health care law.

For instance, United Parcel Service received $37 million from the program’s subsidies for early retirees. From 1989 through this year, political action committees affiliated with UPS donated $32 million to federal candidates and politi-

cal parties. Of that, 64 percent went to Republicans, according to records compiled by the Center for Responsive Politics.

Union Pacific Railroad’s employee health system received $9.7 million in subsidies. Republicans received more than two-thirds of the nearly $20 million in political donations from the railroad’s PACs in the 25-year period tracked by the center.

Altria Client Services Inc. received nearly $11 million in the early retiree subsidies. And Republicans received 71 percent of the nearly $24 million in Altria-related political donations from 1989 to 2014.

One of the biggest subsidy recipients was AT&T, at $213 million. More than half of the $56 million in AT&T-related political donations went to Republicans during the 25-year period.

Spokesmen for AT&T and Altria declined to comment about accepting “Obamacare” subsidies while funding candidates who want to repeal the law.

Other companies that steer most of their political donations to Republicans, and the early-retiree subsidies they received, include: Pfizer Inc., $23 million; GlaxoSmithKline, $14 million; Southern Company Services, $7 million; Lockheed Martin Corp., $4 million; CSX Corp., $2.2 million; KPMG LLP, $1.4 million; and Deloitte LLP, $1.2 million.

The data compiled by the Center for Responsive Politics omits much of this year’s heavy political spending, because many major players are not required to report donations. The Koch-funded group Americans for Prosperity is among those “super PACs” that can keep their finance details private, even as it dominates the airwaves in some states, like North Carolina, with competitive Senate races.

The Kochs and their allies show little sheepishness about denouncing a federal health law that benefited them. In fact, the Koch-related group FreedomPartners is spending more than $1 million on ads criticizing Sen. Mark Udall of Colorado and Rep. Bruce Braley of Iowa, Democrats running in tight Senate races.

Their alleged wrongdoing? Accepting campaign donations from health companies that benefit from “Obamacare.”

Many ‘Obamacare’ critics accepted its subsidies

By Marione Martin A Cherokee man is facing misdemeanor charges after his wife told police he threatened her with a knife. According to court records, on March 29 about 9:30 p.m. Cherokee Police Chief Andrew Minson was contacted by Donna Irvin, who said Sereptia Tucker had contacted her and said she needed help. Irvin said Tucker told her that her husband was drunk and was chasing her around with a large knife.

Chief Minson went to Irvin’s home to talk to Mrs. Tucker, who said her husband, Joseph Shawn Tucker, had been drinking throughout the day at their friend’s house. She said she got upset and left. She went to the cemetery so she could be alone. Mrs. Tucker also said she was 26 weeks pregnant.

Mrs. Tucker said when she left the cemetery and arrived home, she found

Mr. Tucker had turned the power off to the front of the house. When she entered the house, she saw her husband rocking back and forth while holding a Bowie style knife. She asked what was going on, and her husband said everything was her fault and that she was making him psycho. She said her husband came at her and head-butted her, knocking her down. He then got on top of her yelling and holding the knife in what she described as an aggressive manner. Mrs. Tucker said she was yelling at her husband to get off of her. He responded that if she got the police called on him or got the police involved, he would kill her and her children. Chief Minson observed red marks on Mrs. Tucker’s left forearm and on her face.

Mrs. Tucker said her husband left their house to drive around in a green Chrysler Pacifica but she thought he might be home again.

Chief Minson went to the Tucker home. He and Officer Brian Vogelson knocked on the door but Mr Tucker did not answer and a light appeared to dim inside. When Mr. Tucker did not answer, Minson contacted Mrs. Tucker who gave him permission to enter her residence to take Mr. Tucker into custody. The officers made entry through the open back door.

Vogelsong located Mr. Tucker in the bathtub. He was bleeding from

the upper leg and appeared to be unconscious. Both officers made repeated verbal commands to Tucker.

Minson saw that half of Tucker’s face was submerged in the water with both of his hands underneath his body and legs. He asked Vogelsong to call for an ambulance.

As Minson moved the shower door to get closer to Tucker’s head to get him above water, Tucker jumped up.

Both officers immediately identified themselves and began to give Tucker verbal commands to put his hands where they could see them. Tucker began to yell at them to get out of his house. Minson explained to Tucker that he was under arrest for domestic violence. He yelled that he was not going to jail and he wanted them out of his house. Minson told Tucker he was under arrest and he needed to get out of the bathtub so he could be taken into custody. Tucker continued to yell at the officers. Minson told Tucker if he did not exit the tub, he would be tased. Tucker immediately complied.

Vogelsong retrieved a towel and a set of clothes for Tucker who was taken into custody and transported to the Alfalfa County Jail.

Tucker, 25, has been charged with three misdemeanors: domestic abuse – assault and battery, obstructing an officer, and threatening to perform an act of violence.

By Yvonne Miller Honestly, chills went through me and tears welled in my eyes when I walked through the front sliding doors of Kiowa’s new hospital on the evening of the community barbecue and tours last week. Certainly many others passing through those doors had the same feeling.

After literally years of talking about it (since the mid 2000s) – the endless hospital board meetings; county commissioner meetings; Public Building Commission meetings; an election to approve building; then meetings with bondsmen, architects,

building contractors, the USDA, and many more entities; then the formation of the Friends of the Kiowa Hospital and Manor Foundation and their amazing fundraising efforts – the day that seemed it would never come was finally a bricksand-mortar reality.

Many on the tour made comments made to me – lots of oohs and aahhs.

Former hospital board member Darrel Soucie, who now lives in Nebraska, said, “This is a great day in Kiowa’s history.” He wants people to support this state-of-the-art facility. Some shared their amazement at how spacious the 25,000-square-foot hospital is inside.

The words “beautiful facility” were repeated many times.

MW Builders, which built the facility, provided a barbecue for the crowd that was enjoyed by nearly 300, according to administrators.

As a patient on Monday, which was the first day the clinic opened, everything appeared to be going smoothly. Smiles beamed from staff members and there were many hugs. There was a steady stream of patients to utilize the clinic who all commented on how impressed they were with the facility.

Nearly 300 enjoy new Kiowa hospital tour and barbeque

This spacious room is now a sterile emergency room environment. Last Wednesday night the ER area of the new Kiowa hospital was the setting for a community barbecue to celebrate the completion of the new facility. Shown on left side of room are Kenny McNamar, (standing behind him) hospital board member Jim Parker, Hospital Foundation President Judy Schrock visiting with Patty McNamar.

Giraffe dies in surgery for terminal heart defect

BAILEY ELISE McBRIDE, Associated Press OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) — Oklahoma City Zoo officials say a 6-month-old female giraffe with a terminal heart defect died Tuesday during surgery.

Kyah had an extra blood vessel wrapped around her esophagus — a symptom of a congenital heart defect — that prevented her from holding down solid food.

The surgery took place at Oklahoma State University's Veterinary Medical Hospital. Zoo veterinarian Dr. Gretchen Cole said before the surgery that, at best, Kyah had a 50 percent chance of survival.

Zoo spokeswoman Candice Rennels said Kyah was euthanized during surgery when surgeons realized she would not overcome complications.

"The zoo family is grateful to our colleagues at OSU's Veterinary Medical Hospital for their expertise and hard work," said Dr. Jennifer D'Agostino, zoo director of veterinary services. "We knew going into this procedure that Kyah's chances were extremely low and we felt we gave her every chance possible to thrive. Collaborations such as these also allow us to learn more about the species in our care."

By Kristi Eaton, Associated Press OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) — Archaeologists will return to an ancient Native American site in eastern Oklahoma next month to resume excavation, after they discovered a prehistoric building there last October.

Few artifacts have been discovered near the formation — which measures just about 12 feet across — at Spiro Mounds making it difficult for researchers to determine the time period of the building, said Scott Hammerstedt, a researcher at the Oklahoma Archaeological Survey.

"It's a building. A prehistoric building, a fairly faint one — but one nonetheless," he said.

Researchers will head back to excavate a handful of other areas during five weeks of fieldwork in May and June, Hammerstedt said.

The formation was one of about 70 that researchers discovered using remote sensing technology. A creek is eroding a handful of them, so the archaeologists with the Oklahoma Archaeological Sur-

vey, the Arkansas Archaeological Survey and the University of Oklahoma's Department of Anthropology will excavate them. The researchers entered into an excavation agreement with the U.S. Corps of Engineers, which owns the site, the Oklahoma Historical Society, which manages it, and the Caddo Nation and Wichita and Affiliated Tribes, whose ancestors inhabited the site, for the excavation work. The Corps purchased most of the mound area in the 1960s to create a national archeological park, which never was created, according to the Oklahoma Historical Society.

"We're trying to get tribal members involved in the research team and have them come out and help excavate," Hammerstedt said. "We've been doing public presentations, things like that.

That's what is exciting to us — some of the interaction and communication between archaeologists and the tribes, which isn't always the case."

Spiro Mounds is located about seven miles outside of Spiro. It became a permanent settlement around AD 800

and was used until about 1450, according to the Oklahoma Historical Society.

In the 1930s, commercial and academic excavations revealed a large collection of Native American artifacts, many of which were looted from the site.

"Almost all of what we know about Spiro comes from excavation of the Craig Mound in the 1930s — both by looters and by professional archaeologists. And we know next to nothing about what's happening in other parts of the site and around it, and so we're just sort of shifting focus away from mounds into the rest," Hammerstedt said.

He said the current research work is the first excavation work at the site since 1982.

Gary McAdams, cultural program planner for the Wichita and Affiliated Tribes, said the formation uncovered is interesting because researchers didn't previously know anything was there.

McAdams said the tribe hopes some of its members will take part in the excavation work in May and June at the site.

Police seek federal help in highway shootings

By Bill Draper, Associated Press KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — Federal authorities are investigating more than a dozen apparently random shootings targeting vehicles on Kansas Cityarea roads and highways to determine whether they are connected, a police spokesman said Tuesday.

Darryl Forté, the Kansas City, Mo., police chief, met with the FBI Monday to discuss the incidents and had scheduled other meetings this week with federal investigators, Capt. Tye Grant said.

Thirteen shootings have been reported since March 8, most of them in an area on the city's south side known as the Grandview Triangle, where three interstate highways and U.S. 50 intersect. Three people were wounded, but none were considered life-threatening, Grant said.

While there are similarities in geography, time of day and the circumstanc-

From Page 28

es of the shootings, there is no physical evidence connecting them, Grant said.

In all of the cases, someone fired shots just before reaching a highway exit ramp or road split, then veered off in a different direction from the victim's vehicle.

Detectives and police analysts started noticing a pattern last week after reports of shootings started coming in, and by Sunday had identified 13 that had occurred over a four-week span.

Ten of them happened in Kansas City, Mo., with the other three in the suburbs of Leawood, Kan., Blue Springs, Mo., and Lee's Summit, Mo. "Some of the people didn't realize they were being shot at, so when the incidents were reported they were taken down as possible property damage," Grant said.

In the March 8 shooting, a 72-yearold man was driving south on Interstate

435 near the Interstate 470 interchange at 9:45 p.m. when he heard a loud noise and noticed a crack in the front windshield. He pulled over and found a bullet hole in his hood.

The next shooting didn't happen until three weeks later, when a 22-yearold woman was driving south on Ward Parkway with her 3-year-old daughter at 1 p.m. on March 29 when a car pulled up alongside and she heard a loud popping noise. She was taking her daughter out of the car at home when she noticed a large bullet hole in the door near where the girl had been sitting.

The most recent shooting was Sunday, when a 57-year-old Blue Springs man was driving east on Interstate 470 when he heard two large bangs and thought he had run over something.

About that time he also felt what he See Shootings Page 42

chat performed the surgery and has previously performed about a dozen similar surgeries on smaller animals such as dogs, cats and a cougar. He was assisted by other veterinary surgeons as well as the zoo's five-person veterinary team.

This was the first attempt of this procedure on a giraffe, and without it Kyah would have had no chance of survival, Cole said.

Kyah, described by zookeepers as feisty and mischievous, didn't appear sick to visitors. At 6-months-old she

was nearly 8 feet tall and weighed 525 pounds.

Keepers first noticed a problem when Kyah began regurgitating her mother's milk after nursing at was 6 weeks old. The problem got worse as she transitioned to solid food.

A routine necropsy will be performed, as is standard protocol when animals at accredited zoos in the U.S. die. After, the giraffe's tissue will be used for research purposes at Oklahoma State University and the University of Oklahoma.

Oklahoma asks not to delay executions over drugs BAILEY ELISE McBRIDE, Associated Press OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) — The Oklahoma attorney general's office has defended a new three-drug procedure the state intends to use for two executions this month, citing testimony from an anesthesiologist who has successfully used the first drug in neurosurgeries.

In a court filing Monday, state prosecutors asked the Oklahoma Court of Criminal Appeals to deny requests by Clayton Lockett and Charles Warner to stay their executions, which the state plans to carry out at the end of the month.

According to the state's filing, a professor of anesthesiology at the University of Massachusetts testified that he has used midazolam, the first drug of three in the procedure the state has indicated it will use, as "'the first and primary drug to induce anesthesia' in neurosurger-

From Page 38

ies during a drug shortage" and that a 50mg dose prevented his patients "from perceiving the noxious stimuli associated with neurosurgery." The Florida Supreme Court rejected Eighth Amendment challenges to their execution protocol based on that testimony.

Lawyers for the inmates contended in their request for a stay that the state has not provided adequate time for them to research the method of execution, a three-drug combination of midazolam, pancuronium bromide and potassium chloride, which has only been used in executions in Florida and not in the same doses. Whereas Florida used 500mg of midazolam, Oklahoma's procedure calls for 100mg, which the state suggests is more than enough to make the inmate unconscious.

The state also cited recent decisions in the 5th and 8th U.S. Circuit Courts

of Appeals in similar cases challenging state secrecy that sided with the states and the denial by the U.S. Supreme Court to rule in those cases. The state contends it has offered all the information necessary to the inmates, and that they do not need to involve the drug supplier.

"The identification of the source of the drugs is irrelevant and will provide virtually nothing beyond the information being disclosed by the state," the lawyers wrote in their filing.

Lockett and Warner sued the state in February over the "veil of secrecy" surrounding state execution procedures.

In March, Oklahoma County District Judge Patricia Parrish ruled the state's secrecy surrounding a statute protecting the identity of drug suppliers was unconstitutional. The attorney general's office has said they will appeal that ruling.

thought was a charley horse in his left leg, but when he put his hand down he found blood, pulled over and called 911.

The man had been shot in the calf, and officers found three bullet holes in

the driver's side of his car.

One other driver was shot in the leg, while the third was shot in the arm, police said.

"This isn't the first time I've heard of a random shooting reported, but as

far as several of them possibly being linked, I can't think of another situation that has occurred in the Kansas City area," Grant said.

Kansas City police already work closely with their federal counterparts, he said, so involvement by the FBI and Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives in the case isn't unusual.

No new shootings have been reported since Sunday.

The police department, FBI and ATF are offering a $7,000 reward for information leading to an arrest in the shootings.

Oklahoma Legislature honors 45th Infantry soldier

By Tim Talley, Associated Press OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) — A soldier with Oklahoma's 45th Infantry Brigade who was seriously injured while trying to protect others when a massive tornado struck Moore in May was honored Tuesday with one of the state's highest military decorations.

Sgt. E.H. Pittman received the Oklahoma Star of Valor medal for what Maj. Gen. Myles Deering, the state's adjutant general, described as his "selfless and heroic actions" as members of the state Legislature convened a joint session to honor members of the Oklahoma National Guard.

Pittman, 30, had recently returned from a 13-month deployment in Afghanistan with the National Guard's 45th Infantry Brigade Combat Team and was working at a Moore convenience store when the tornado tore through an area south of Oklahoma City on May 20.

Pittman and a co-worker rushed some customers into a bathroom as the tornado struck, demolishing the store and killing three people including a woman and her infant son. Pittman suffered serious wounds including a spinal cord injury that left him paralyzed.

In awarding the medal, Deering

praised Pittman's efforts to use his body as a shield to save civilians who were trapped in the store as the storm approached. State lawmakers stood and applauded as the medal was presented.

Pittman did not speak during the ceremony, but has said in the past that he hopes to regain the use of his legs.

Although doctors say he is paralyzed he has some feeling in his legs, which makes him hopeful he'll walk again.

"After they pulled me out and set me on the concrete, (they) told me I stood up and took a couple of steps and sat down and said, I can't feel my legs," Pittman told television station KFOR in July. "I don't remember that.

I guess that was my last three steps right there."

The Star of Valor can be awarded to any eligible member of the Oklahoma National Guard who performs an act of heroism involving the risk of life or limb to protect the life of another under conditions other than military combat.

During the ceremony, Deering said more than 9,000 men and women are currently members of the state's Army and Air National Guard.

"We are prepared, we are ready and we are willing to do whatever our

state and nation asks us to do," Deering said.

The annual observance pays tribute to the state's National Guard and soldiers with the former 45th Infantry Division, especially during World War II and the Korean War. The 45th Infantry Division was formed shortly after World War I and was initially composed of National Guard units from Oklahoma, Colorado, New Mexico and Arizona. The division was among the first four divisions called to duty in World War II. In 511 combat days, the 45th had fought through four countries from Sicily to the foothills of the Bavarian Alps.

The division sustained over 20,000 combat casualties, making it one of the five hardest-hit divisions in the Army.

Eight members of the division received the nation's highest honor for bravery, the Congressional Medal of Honor.

In September 1946, the 45th was reorganized into an all Oklahoma division. Four years later, it was again called to duty in Korea, the first National Guard division to enter combat.

Soldiers of the 45th served in four battle campaigns during 429 days of combat. In February 1968, the 45th Infantry Division was deactivated and replaced with three brigade-sized elements, which compose the Oklahoma National Guard.

He commended department heads for their organization and everyone who helped make the move such a success.

It was definitely “Miller's Madness” during this skit at Kiowa's 29th annual Pioneer Days. At the culmination of the production, John Miller kissed all the girls and made them swoon (Konnie Lukins even fainted).

He bent down to kiss “Lucy Lukins, the dancing dog,” which had everyone laughing. The skit was reminiscent of Kiowa's early days with lots of rowdy cowboys (disagreeing, of course), some prim and proper citizens and some not who square danced, floozy saloon girls and more in front of an early day downtown facade. The skit crowd in this scene includes (left to right): Aydan Bryan (white apron), Addy Bryan (face only), Abby Bryan (lavender bonnet and apron), Ava Bryan (blue dress & apron), Hudson Rector (red shirt), saloon girls Kay-Leigh Myers and Vicky Gantt, Josh Myers (in black hat hidden behind Ammorae Bryan), Fred Bogatay, Brenna May, Brenda Myers, Anna Schurter, Daniel Jones (in white hat behind Anna Schurter), Ron Rohr (in white cap), Pat Myers, Konnie Lukins, Zeb Schurter, Dan Lukins, Lucy the dancing dog, and Mr. Pioneer Days himself John Miller leaning over to kiss the short pooch. Chris Beutler was in the skit and ran the sound. Photo

Longtime Kiowa resident Elizabeth Terry celebrated her 100th birthday March 30. She was honored as the Pioneer Days Parade Marshal.

Stoney Reif chauffeurs Terry in the parade in his wagon. Two of Terry's great-granddaughters ride with her. When asked the girls' names, she chuckled and said, “Honey, at this age I don't remember names very well.” Of the experience, Terry said, “It was nice, but cold. The little ones enjoyed it so much.” She said, “I never expected this. My family did a good job and this community has been great to me!” Terry and her husband Carl had five children. They moved to Hazelton in 1964. After Carl passed away in 1974, Terry said she traveled on tours all over the U.S. and to two foreign countries. She was known for having a big garden and said she never lost her love for gardening – especially flowers. She moved to Kiowa in 1967. For 20 years, she served on the Barber County Council for Aging. A quilter and knitter, she's loved leading exercise class at the Senior Citizen Center the past 25 years. She's a member of St. John Catholic Church. Photo by Yvonne Miller

Little Hunter Stauffer is a cute cowboy riding a rocking horse in the Pioneer Days parade. He came from Waukomis to ride on his grandma Dee Coyle’s float for “Dang it Dad’s Pickin’” in Kiowa, which has everything from horse tack to tools and “you name it,” Dee said. Hunter’s mom Amanda wore a blue pioneer dress and walked through the parade with her paint pony. Photo by Yvonne Miller

Dressed as children from the early prairie days, these little ones gave recitations and more in their one-room school house setting during Kiowa's Pioneer Days skit following the parade Saturday. The kids were cute and a few little boys were ornery (as rehearsed). The kids joined the adults in square dancing and everyone had a good time in the “Miller's Madness” skit. The group in the one-room school were: (back row, left to right) teacher Aimee Bryan, Sterling Rector (at desk), Aydan Bryan, Ammorae Bryan, Leo Turner, Donna Williams (standing) who organized the skit; (middle row) Addy Bryan, Hudson Rector and Xander Myers; (front) Ava Bryan and Abigail Bryan.

Veteran's Meeting

By Veteran Chaplain Dearl Webb On April 14th we will be having our last Veteran's meeting before the summer months begin.

We will be showing Part II of the Dave Roever story, a Vietnam Navy Veteran, who had been in Vietnam for eight months when he had a phosphorous hand grenade blow up on the right side of his face burning 40% of his skin off. This is a true story and what he went through.

Mr. Roever's story is not only about his physical recovery but also his emotional and spiritual recovery and is one of the most dramatic you may ever see or hear.

Dave was serving in the Brown Water Berets that were stationed in Vietnam at this time.

After Dave's accident he was hospitalized fourteen months and underwent fifteen major surgeries.

You will want to hear how his wife Brenda and brother dealt with this terrible accident.

Dave and his wife and grown children, one son and one daughter, make their home in Fort Worth, Texas.

He has shared his story in Iraq and Afghanistan to other soldiers fighting the war.

This is a free film and is 39 minutes in length so please plan to stay till the end.

The meeting starts at 6:30 p.m. in the Veteran's Room of the Community Building in Kiowa, Kansas.

We make beautiful prints from your cell phone images.

OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) — A ceremony to honor members of the Oklahoma National Guard and of the former 45th Infantry Division is scheduled at the state Legislature.

The annual Oklahoma National Guard and 45th Infantry Division Appreciation Day will be Tuesday during

a joint session of the state House and Senate in the House.

The day is to pay tribute to all members of the 45th Infantry Division — especially those who served during World War II and Korea. It’s been expanded recently to include members currently serving in the National Guard.

The 45th Infantry Division was formed shortly after World War I. It was replaced with three brigade-sized elements that are now the Oklahoma National Guard and include the 45th Infantry Brigade Combat Team, the 45th Fires Brigade and the 90th Troop Command.

the boiler room (it will have to be cut up in pieces to be removed) they could have more storm shelter space.

The board approved two fundraiser activities. The Alva Cheerleaders wish to sell old clothing to raise $3,000 to fund their summer trip to cheerleading camp and Alva Middle School is having a “Coins for Connor” fundraiser, hoping to come-up with $300.

The board followed the superintendent’s recommendation to re-employee all certified personnel for the next school year. They then went into executive session to establish the salary for the superintendent, who was re-employed at the February meeting.

After leaving executive session, the board voted to pay the same as last year: $95,000.

THANK YOU

To all the family, friends, and neighbors of the Charles O'Neil family. Also all the vendors for all the donations, the entertainers for the wonderful music and workers in making the benefit such a success.

May God richly bless each of you. Friends helping friends and Carol and Family
