A will is a dead giveaway
Alfalfa County commissioners met Monday
Lynn Says
• The batteries were given out free of charge.
By Lynn L. Martin I prefer for this column to have great variety. Computer stuff one week, aviation stuff the next, psychology the next and maybe religion another. I don't think I've included one on “words.” This bit of writing was submitted by Richard Miller and is pretty funny. “Lexophile” is a word used to describe those who have a love for words, such as “you can tune a piano, but you can't tuna fish,” or “to write with a broken pencil is pointless.” A competition to see who can come up with the best lexophiles is held every year in an undisclosed location. This year's winning submission is posted at the very end.
• Did you hear about the fellow whose entire left side was cut off? He's all right now.
• When fish are in schools, they sometimes take debate.
• A bicycle can't stand alone; it's just two tired.
• A thief who stole a calendar got twelve months.
• When a clock is hungry it goes back four seconds.
• When the smog lifts in Los Angeles U.C.L.A.
• The guy who fell onto an upholstery machine is now fully recovered.

By Leslie Nation CHEROKEE – The Alfalfa County commissioners met on Monday morning at the county courthouse for their regular meeting. Before having a public discussion, the commissioners signed the contracts from Yellowhouse for new graders. The commissioners then reviewed and approved the bridge inspections invoice and report of conference for all three districts, and the load posting summary for District 3. Two bids were made for 12 month ballots, as the commissioners reviewed the offers made by Midwest Printing from Sapulpa and Memorial Printing of Oklahoma City. The commissioners approved of the Memorial bid. The commissioners then moved to regular business, reviewing the minutes. Commissioner Chad Roach made a motion to table the minutes from the regular and officer meeting on Sept. 8. The M & O warrants, blanket purchase orders and road crossing permits were reviewed and approved. Other items on the agenda that were approved by the commissioners were: • the creation of a new cash account for Education Authority for bonds for Cherokee school, • approval of the tenth payment to Reeder for the fairgrounds building in the amount of $139,970.00, • a request to remove Lyndee Cudmore as receiving officer for court clerk to be replaced by Lisa Diacon, • and the transfer from T-2A to T-7 of $74,000 for the Fifth Street overlay. Another item that was tabled until the next meeting was the county clerk going out on bids for a tanker for the Nescatunga responders. Having no other unforeseen business, the commissioners then adjourned the meeting. Road crossing revenue was as follows: No. of District Permits Amount 1 3 $3,000 2 5 $3,000 (Districts 3 and 2 split one) 3 2 $5,000 (Districts 3 and 2 split one)

Freedom Schools happy with “A” grade report cards By Lynn L. Martin Superintendent Danny McCuiston expressed delight that the Freedom schools were in an exclusive club of 11 schools in the state of Oklahoma who received State Report Card grades of A for both their elementary and high schools. He mentioned that three of the top 11 schools were nearby: besides Freedom, the others were Waynoka and Burlington. In his report, Principal Brett Hill wrote, “You have probably heard many folks discounting the A-F grading system invalid and unreliable. The fact of the matter is that the A-F system is here to stay. It is a state mandated aspect of education in Oklahoma, not a federal mandate. Both candidates for the State Superintendent of Education endorse accountability for schools. “I cannot express how very proud I am of this school and all who have worked so hard, from the teachers to the students and the parents of students. It took everyone coming together for what's best for kids to get done what we got done this past year,” Hill concluded.
In other news, enrollment at Freedom is up from the expected 90 students to 98. Grade school football is in progress. The record is 1 and 3 with a win at Sharon-Mutual, and losses to Buffalo, Waynoka and Sharon-Mutual. The Booster Club's annual golf tournament was a big success with nine fourman teams, 22 hole sponsors and over $600 fifty-fifty pot. A revised 2014-2015 basketball schedule was distributed with games with Keyes and Fargo added. However the Fargo tournament has been canceled. The first game will be Nov. 4 against Fellowship Baptist in Freedom. Superintendent's Report The superintendent reported that the district net assessed valuation has been reduced by the following amounts: Woods County, down $848,284. Woodward County, down $114,863; and Harper County, down $10,387. McCuiston said these combined losses total $973,534. He did acknowledge that last year the valuation was up by $2 million and the variances were an anomaly with the considerable
oil and gas exploration going on. Overall, when all revenue sources (gross production, rural electric, motor vehicle and school land) are added, the district is looking at a very good year. The projected revenue is $610,081.88 compared to $392,918.31 last year. Freedom has a carryover amount of $804,451.35 so the total budget for fiscal year 2015 is $2,190,205.38. The board members approved several new policies required by the state. This includes an anti-bullying policy, investigation procedures for bullying or harassment, a power of attorney form, student residency proof standards and a policy to encourage parent participation in the school district. Attorney General E. Scott Pruitt sent a letter mentioning that school board members and attorneys may receive credit hours for attending an open meeting/open records seminar. The seminars are available in Ardmore, Sept. 25; Woodward, Oct. 2; Tulsa, Oct. 16; McAlester, Nov. 20; Altus, Dec. 4; and Oklahoma City, Dec. 11.
Woods County commissioners open new county road By Lynn L. Martin Working with the BNSF railroad to improve a high road crossing, the Woods County commissioners agree to close County Road 380 from Grady Road going south to the BNSF right of way.
Woods County will allow the removal of this railroad crossing in exchange for the construction of new road on the east side of the existing main line. This road will extend south of Grady Road to the intersection of County Road 380.
The commissioners also agreed to open a never-before-opened road that would be County Road 360 one-half mile south of Ellis road going to Dewey Road. The railroad will do all the dirt work and handle the expense. An agreement was signed with Woods County that both modifications will be accepted into the county highway system upon completion of construction.

Bell Telephone Company, working the night shift as the switchboard operator, and was also employed by the Rural Electric Association (REA) in Cherokee, working as a cashier and then as a billing clerk, prior to marrying Leroy Stein on May 7, 1949. Leroy and Rose established their home east of Cherokee on the Pete Stein Homeplace where Leroy was born and raised. They later moved to a home in Cherokee where they lived and raised their four children: Peter Lynn, Rachel Ann, Daniel Ray and Samuel Lee. Rosevelyn involved herself over the years in her children’s many school and extracurricular activities – and, later, those of her grandchildren. Those activities included the Cherokee Band Boosters, the Cherokee FFA Boosters, Speech and Debate Sponsors, and Athletic Boosters. Plus, she opened her home (and her basement) to many high school junior classes so they could make homecoming mums for Cherokee’s many homecoming celebrations. She was also active in the Beta Sigma Phi Sorority, the Tillers Women’s Bowling Team, and the local Republican Party, spending many hours working for Roy Schoeb’s successful state senate campaign and Henry Belmon’s successful gubernatorial campaign. Rosevelyn, along with her husband, Leroy, owned and operated Coles Flowers, a local flower shop and greenhouse/nursery business for several years. She enjoyed working at the flower shop with her husband and children, and was also active in the family farming and cattle operation. She remained active at the flower shop after Leroy’s death until her retirement in 2009 at the age of 81. She was a proud member and supporter of the Cherokee Chamber of Commerce and was honored at her retirement with the Main Street Lifetime Achievement Award, at which time she was recognized as the originator of the Cherokee Merchants’ Annual Christmas Open House festival. Those surviving Rosevelyn include her children, Pete and his wife Lea Ann of Houston, Mo.; Rachel Hager and her

After Paul graduated from Waynoka High School, he enlisted in the United States Navy. On Dec. 25, 1954, he was united in marriage to Ellen Pearl Pratt at Arnett, Okla.

In 1996, they moved to Norman where he worked as an electrician for all of the Veteran’s Centers in Oklahoma. In 2003, they moved to Blackwell. He loved hunting, boating and fishing, but his true love was aviation. While in Waynoka, he was a member of the Waynoka Flying Club, which owned a J3 Cub, then a Taylorcraft and finally a Cessna. He also enjoyed flying model airplanes. Besides his parents, he was preceded in death by three brothers, Jimmy Cattin, Walter Earl Gamble, Jr., and Bill Gordon; and two sisters, Vera Mae Morris and infant, Adda Mae Gamble.

Burlington School has resignations; district receives A grade on report card By Yvonne Miller The Burlington Board of Education met for their September meeting last Tuesday evening. President Terry Graham presided over the meeting with all members present: Beth Guffy, Roger Allen, Allison Armbruster and Aaron Smith. Others attending were Superintendent Glen Elliott, Principal Shane Feely, Minutes Clerk Linda Gordon, Secretary Tamre Bohn and Counselor Misty McCullough. Secretary Gordon submitted her letter of resignation. Following about an hour-long executive session, the board accepted Gordon's resignation with thanks to her for the hours spent and willingness to help. The board also accepted the resignation of Jaimee Browning as cafeteria manager/cook and thanked her for her hard work both last year and this year. The board wished her and husband Patrick and their boys well in their future plans. Ginger Cass received board approval as the new cafeteria manager and cook. Then the board approved David Cass and Ginger Cass as authorized receiving agents for Burlington School for 2014-2015. Principal Feely said that the district's grade card showed an A+ for the high school and an A- for the elementary. Counselor McCullough presented the 2013-14 ACT, OCCT EOI test results and college remediation report
with input from Principal Feely and Superintendent Elliott. The board discussed areas of strengths and weaknesses and how the remediation was being implemented. An ACT preparation class is now offered to juniors and seniors that also covers scholarship applications and resume preparations. “After using remediation, a lot less students need to retake tests,� Elliott said. He added Burlington has used this remediation program the last two years. The superintendent said with just a few changes, the program is working well. Elks Basketball Ticket Prices Remain the Same Elks basketball season will soon arrive. The first high school game is Nov. 4 at home as the Elks host Drummond. Nov. 7 the junior high hosts Cimarron at home. The board approved selling season tickets and senior citizens passes at the same price as last year and setting gate prices for basketball season at the same price also. There is one more grade school and junior high school game at home than last year. Season ticket prices are: students, $25; adults, $35; and family, $120. Senior citizen passes for anyone 65 or older: $10. Gate prices are: adult, $4, and student, $3 for high school games; for junior high school games, gate prices are adult, $3, and student, $2. Superintendent Updates Construction Projects and More
Superintendent Elliott updated the board on the progress of the construction projects. He said regarding the band/safe room that Alfalfa Electric Cooperative has to set a new pole. The ceiling was to be installed. He said the builders estimate the building will be completed in two or three weeks or sooner. For the agriculture education building, Elliott said there is more concrete and guttering work to finish. The exhaust system and safety wash areas are being worked on now. It's almost finished. On the superintendent's house, Elliott said cabinets have been delivered and the painters are staining and getting ready to paint before they can be installed. The electricians will have to do their work as well. The builders estimate completion sometime in November. All projects together are estimated at 80 percent complete. The board signed some contracts that had corrections. After reviewing the quote from Progressive Windows, the board accepted the quote by Progressive Windows to replace the windows in the pre-K to second grade building with new windows at a cost of $9,238. In his report, Elliott said high school enrollment is 38 and grade school enrollment is 109 for a total of 147 students. That's about the same as last year; maybe down a few students, he said. Of those, 120 students qualify to ride buses. Elliott had board members who attended the OSBA and COSSA convention report on the meeting, as he was sick and unable to attend. Elliott said the school received notice of an application to use groundwater. Other Burlington School Board Business After a brief discussion, the board approved the 2014/2015 Federal Assurances and the 2014/2015 Federal Assurances and LEA Agreement; voted to reaffirm the procurement policy, which had slight changes from the previous

Discover history and fun at Medicine Lodge Indian Summer Days this weekend Kansas Championship Ranch Rodeo, intertribal powwow, peace treaty shows; Music, food, festivities, games, parade, shopping, street dance By Yvonne Miller People who live in the beautiful Gyp Hills area of south central Kansas where wildflowers cover meadows dotted with meandering streams, often take the natural beauty for granted. There's such a rich history in those hills, the heritage of the area that started where buffalo roamed and Indians hunted the bountiful area for food. Pioneers found their way to this area perfect for raising crops and much more. The conflict and eventually peace treaty signed in 1867 by the Peace Commission of the U.S. and the five tribes of the Plains Indians is an intriguing story and should never be forgotten. The folks at Medicine Lodge tell the story beautifully with real life reenactments known as the Medicine Lodge Peace Treaty. The next Peace Treaty is in 2015. Fortunately, during the years between the reenactments, Medicine Lodge hosts “Indian Summer Days” where pieces of the fascinating history come to life. That is this weekend, September 26-28. Friday Night Events at Stockade Museum and Ranch Rodeo The Medicine Lodge Stockade is the place to be Friday evening. A bean feed starts there at 5:30 p.m. You get a glimpse of the past from 6:15 p.m. to 7:15 p.m. with the Peace Treaty Night Show. The show reenacts the 1884 Medicine Valley bank robbery. can-can girls and gun-slinging cowboys whoop it up – that is until temperance leader Carrie Nation breaks up the saloon party with one of her scary “hatchatations.” Except during the Peace Treaty Show, the Carrie Nation & the Speakeasy band will play at the Stockade until 9:15 p.m. The band is a high energy, acoustic brass-ngrass five-piece from Wichita, Kan., whose sound has been described as “a stagecoach in overdrive.” There's another Peace Treaty Show Saturday. To see real-life working cowboys in action, don't miss the 26th Annual Kansas Championship Ranch Rodeo

By Yvonne Miller The nearly 100 people attending “Jeans and Gems” Saturday night to raise funds for the new Kiowa District Hospital were treated to a steak and shrimp dinner, great company, a nice assortment of auction items and lots of fun. The Friends of the Kiowa District Hospital and Manor Foundation organized the event held in Kiowa's Community Building. Foundation President Judy Schrock said preliminary figures show they brought in about $31,000 thus far with the fundraiser. That amount was raised by the silent and live auctions; sponsorships; ticket sales and donations. Syd Sterling of Yur Place in Hardtner catered the delicious meal. Hospital personnel volunteered their time to help serve, etc. Every dime raised helps the foundation continue their contribution for the new facility that opened in the late spring.

SBHS CHIEFTAIN FOOTBALL TEAM PLAGUED WITH INJURIES – The Chieftains' football season certainly hasn't opened as hoped. Quarterback Peyton Yandel, a senior, suffered a serious knee injury. Coach Tim Rector said Tuesday morning that Yandel made the decision to try and play with a strong brace, although he later faces surgery. Another senior, running back Dylan Allison was also injured in the same game at Oxford. Coach Rector said Allison's injury caused inflammation that will keep him out one more week. Junior Tyler Martin has a high ankle sprain that will keep him out two weeks, Rector said. Homecoming had to be postponed due to the team they were going to play, Cunningham, had too many injuries to participate. Homecoming will now be Friday, October 3 against South Haven. The Chieftains and fans are ready to get back on the field as South Barber travels to Stafford for a game Friday night. The team and coaches are: (back l-r) Head Coach Tim Rector, assistant coach Ryan Hill; Hugo Cardenas, Peyton Yandel, Tyler Martin, Bryce Roberts, Dylan Allison, Kolton Pavlu, K.J.

Drug ‘tip’ left by diner at Cherokee Pizza Hut
By Marione Martin A man eating at the Cherokee Pizza Hut left behind a suspicious package which employees promptly reported to police. Officer Matt Jones arrived about 9:15 p.m. on Tuesday, Sept. 16. An employee turned over a ripped plastic sack with three small blue bags bearing a Superman-style red “S” and one clear plastic bag containing a couple of big crystals that appeared to be methamphetamine. Pizza Hut employees described the man and woman who had been seated at the table. The Pizza Hut manager arrived and said she had seen the woman at Sonic-Subway. She said they were driving a metallic van. While Jones talked to the witnesses, he saw a gold Dodge Grand Caravan van that matched the description as it returned to the area of the Pizza Hut. The manager positively identified the van. Jones went to his car and got behind the van, turning on his lights and making a traffic stop. The van stopped in the Pizza Hut parking lot. Jones asked the driver, John Woodruff, to accompany him back to his patrol car where he could interview him. Woodruff said he didn’t know what the officer was talking about. Jones
then talked to the passenger, Cassandra Henry, who also said she did not know what was going on. Jones showed both of them the items found at the Pizza Hut, and they denied any knowledge about them. While talking to Henry, Jones noticed they had fresh Pizza Hut cups with condensation on the outside. He asked Woodruff where they were sitting in Pizza Hut, and Woodruff said the second booth (where the employee had found the items). He said they had the stuffed crust bacon meat lovers’ pizza, which matched the receipt left on the table. Jones told Woodruff he was under arrest for possession of a controlled dangerous substance. Jones then searched the car and took inventory. He found a black and gray zip bag between the two front seats containing rolling papers and a small tin can full of little blue baggies with the red “S” on the side like those found at Pizza Hut. Also in the bag was a ziplock bag with a large chunk of marijuana (25.2 grams) that appeared to have been broken from a brick of marijuana. As soon as Jones pulled the marijuana from the van, Woodruff admitted it was his. Also in the van were two little glass bottles, two torch lighters and a spatula (taken from Pizza Hut). The leftover

pizza in the van matched what the employee said had been served to the couple and the receipt. In Woodruff’s wallet from his right front pocket, Jones found $425. Woodruff began saying it was not her (Henry’s) fault, and he would fill out a statement telling what happened if she would be free to go. Jones read Woodruff his Miranda rights and he agreed to talk. In his statement, Woodruff wrote that while at Pizza Hut, he pulled money out of his pocket to give the waiter. “I then pulled out a bag with 19 1/2 grams of meth in it,” he wrote. He stated he accidentally laid it on the table, put the spatula in the pizza box and paid for the pizza. Woodruff said he got to the four-way stop at highways 8 and 64 when he reached in his pocket to get his lighter and noticed his bag was missing. Woodruff stated that when he couldn’t find it, he told his girlfriend he left some money at Pizza Hut, turned around and went back to Cherokee. When he saw an officer there, he said, he drove through the parking lot and the officer pulled him over. The van was impounded by a towing company. Woodruff was booked into the Alfalfa County Jail. At the Sheriff’s Office, Jones weighed the methamphetamine which showed 19.3 grams. On Sept. 17, John Woodruff, 38, of Enid was charged with unlawful possession of a controlled dangerous drug with intent to distribute, a felony. He was also charged with three misdemeanors: Unlawful possession of paraphernalia, possession of a controlled dangerous substance and petit larceny.

Transportation official pays income tax bill TOPEKA, Kan. (AP) — Kansas Transportation Secretary Mike King said he has paid an income tax bill of more than $250,000 after the IRS filed a tax lien against him last month. King told The Wichita Eagle (http:// bit.ly/1qqgLhf ) that the amount was the balance of personal income tax that he and his wife owed from the sale of his construction company King Enterprises Group in 2012. It was a family construction business based in central Kansas that King, a Hesston native, owned for more than 20 years. He said he had been making payments on the debt and was surprised by the lien, adding that he did not know why
the IRS filed it. The original amount of taxes owed from the sale was more than $400,000, he said. "But payment has been made in full now," King said. "Hopefully, you can see past making this too big, which it isn't." An IRS spokesman said the agency cannot comment on specific cases. The federal tax agency filed the lien in Aug. 21 for personal income taxes owed, and it was recorded by the Shawnee County's register of deeds office on Sept. 2. According to county records, the register of deeds was notified about it because the Kings own a home in Shaw-
nee County valued at $289,840. In the lien notice, the IRS stated, "We have made a demand for payment of this liability, but it remains unpaid." The lien was for King's property and "additional penalties, interests, and costs that may accrue." King's salary last year was $110,000, according to a Kansas Department of Transportation spokeswoman. In July 2013, he became director of the Kansas Turnpike Authority after a reorganization of the state's toll road. Last month, he was elected to a one-year term as president of the Mid America Association of State Transportation Officials, a group that represents 10 states.
Fire destroys Michael Brown memorial in Ferguson, MO By Jim Salter FERGUSON, Mo. (AP) — Anger spilled over Tuesday after fire destroyed one of two memorials on the street where Michael Brown was killed, a site that has become sacred to many in Ferguson and others nationwide focused on interactions between minorities and police. How the fire happened wasn't immediately clear, but it stoked fresh resentment among those who question whether the shooting of the unarmed, black 18-year-old by a white Ferguson police officer on Aug. 9 is being adequately investigated. "It's the same as if somebody came and desecrated a grave," Anthony Levine of Florissant, another St. Louis suburb,
said as he studied the charred scene and shook his head. Many who gathered at the site Tuesday blamed police for the blaze, even as the chief said officers did everything they could to keep the stuffed animals and other items from burning. More than six weeks after Brown's death, residents and others remain upset about the way his body lay in the street for more than four hours while police investigated the shooting. Many insist he was trying to surrender, with his hands up. They're also angry that the officer who shot him, Darren Wilson, remains free and on paid administrative leave while a state grand jury weighs wheth-
er Wilson should face criminal charges. The Justice Department also is investigating. The memorial fire and ensuing outcry was a reminder of the simmering tensions that have only deepened since Brown's death, which prompted several nights of riots and protests in the predominantly black suburb where just three blacks serve on a 53-officer force. Two memorials were put up the day Brown was killed. The one not damaged by fire is in the middle of Canfield Drive — a narrow band of stuffed animals, crosses, handmade signs and other items at the exact spot where Brown was shot. The smaller memorial that burned sat a few feet away with teddy bears, blankets and signs circling a light post. It often included candles that were sometimes lit. Many residents at the fire scene doubted a candle was the culprit, though. Most were certain someone set the blaze. Some said they smelled gasoline. "That's very disrespectful to burn down a memorial to someone that got killed," said Meldon Moffitt, who lives nearby. "That's just wrong! The police

Armored vehicles to be operational later this year TULSA, Okla. (AP) — Armored vehicles purchased by Tulsa County law enforcement agencies will likely be operational this year, and police say it's unlikely they would use them to diffuse a large-scale civil disturbance. The Mine Resistant Ambush Protected vehicles were bought over the summer for $2,500 each by the Tulsa Police Department and the Tulsa County Sheriff's Office, the Tulsa World reported (http://bit.ly/1qq3IfC ). They were acquired through a government program that sells decommissioned military vehicles at a discounted price to law enforcement agencies. The vehicles carry a price tag of $733,000, according to Tulsa Deputy Police Chief Dennis Larsen. A non-mil-
itary armored vehicle would cost a law enforcement agency between $160,000 to $250,000, he said. "'For $2,500,' I joked with the (seller), 'Can we get two?' It's just too good of a deal," Larsen said. Both agencies say the armored vehicles will be useful in disaster response, such as the 2013 Moore tornado that ripped through a large area of the town. When the fatal twister hit Moore, Larsen said large amounts of leftover debris deflated police cruiser tires, preventing Moore officers from being able to use them. He noted the tires on armored vehicles are nearly impossible to deflate. The agencies say it's unlikely they would use the armored vehicles to halt a large civil disturbance. Tulsa Police
Chief Chuck Jordan said last month that they wouldn't be effective in such a scenario, adding that any protest requires officers to respond with communication on the ground. "You can't hope to resolve something in a tank," he said. The vehicles also will be used for high-risk search warrants, such as a person law enforcement officials suspect has a powerful rifle, both agencies said. The Tulsa Police Department bought the vehicle in June for $2,500, and it should be ready by late October or November. Maj. Shannon Clark said the sheriff's office said its vehicle is technically operational now, but that it still needs some outfitting.
Top GOP names help Roberts in Kansas Senate race By JOHN HANNA TOPEKA, Kan. (AP) — Sarah Palin and other high-profile Republicans are coming to Kansas this week to boost Sen. Pat Roberts' chances of re-election in an unexpectedly crucial race for the GOP, while a well-funded television ad began airing Tuesday targeting his opponent. Palin, Alaska's former governor and the 2008 vice presidential nominee, is set to attend a pancake breakfast Thursday with the three-term Kansas senator in Independence. Arizona Sen. John McCain, the 2008 presidential nominee, will join Roberts on
Wednesday in the Kansas City suburb of Overland Park, and former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush will visit Wichita on Monday. Their stops follow follows Roberts' appearances Monday and Tuesday with former Kansas Sen. Bob Dole, also a past GOP presidential candidate. The race shifted when Democrats successfully withdrew their candidate from the race, leaving independent Greg Orman, a businessman and co-founder of a private equity firm, as Roberts' lone major challenger. Orman running as a centrist, but Republicans are trying to paint the 45-year-old as a

liberal Democrat. Freedom Partners Action Fund — a political action committee with ties to billionaire businessmen and GOP donors Charles and David Koch — began airing a 30-second ad on Tuesday trying to tie Orman to President Barack Obama. "The Republican Party is uniting around Pat Roberts because he is the only candidate in this race who will ensure (Democratic Senate Majority Leader) Harry Reid is no longer in control of the Senate," Roberts campaign manager Corry Bliss said Tuesday. Republicans need to pick up six seats to regain control the Senate. The GOP has held both of Kansas' Senate seats since 1938, but Roberts suffered during the primary because of his long political career. "Senator Roberts bringing a bunch of his politician friends to Kansas isn't going to change anyone's mind," Orman campaign manager Jim Jonas said in a statement. "They want an independent voice in the Senate." The back-and-forth came as the Kansas

Supreme Court decided not to rule on a request to force Democrats to name a candidate. The court last week allowed Democrat Chad Taylor to remove his name from the ballot, but the ruling was immediately challenged by a Democratic voter who demanded Taylor be replaced. The high court said Tuesday that the voter's petition didn't contain enough evidence and sent it back to a lower court. The voter's son works on Republican Gov. Sam Brownback's re-election campaign.

school board proposal to focus history education on topics that promote citizenship, patriotism and respect for authority, providing a show of civil disobedience that the new standards would aim to downplay. The youth protest in the state's second-largest school district follows a sick-out from teachers that shut down two high schools in the politically and economically diverse area that has become a key political battleground. Student participants said their demonstration was organized by word of mouth and social media. Many waved American flags and carried signs, including messages that read "There is nothing more patriotic than protest." "I don't think my education should be censored. We should be able to know what happened in our past," said Tori Leu, a 17-year-old student who protested at Ralston Valley High School in Arvada.
The school board proposal that triggered the walkout calls of instructional materials that present positive aspects of the nation and its heritage. It would establish a committee to regularly review texts and course plans, starting with Advanced Placement history, to make sure materials "promote citizenship, patriotism, essentials and benefits of the free-market system, respect for authority and respect for individual rights" and don't "encourage or condone civil disorder, social strike or disregard of the law." The proposal from Julie Williams, part of the board's conservative majority, has not been voted on and was put on hold last week. She didn't return a call from The Associated Press seeking comment Tuesday, but previously told Chalkbeat Colorado, a school news website, that she recognizes there are negative events

Alfalfa County OHCE group launches fundraising shoe drive campaign To raise funds for micro-enterprise in developing nations Jet Industrious OHCE is conducting a shoe collection drive from now until Oct. 31 to raise funds to help various local and county community projects while benefiting micro-enterprise ventures in developing nations and keeping old shoes out of local landfills. Individuals can help by donating gently worn, used shoes to the Jet Industrious OHCE, which gives shoes a second chance to make a difference. All donated shoes will be redistributed
to micro-enterprise partners through Funds2Orgs and used in developing nations for impoverished people to start, maintain, and grow a unique business opportunity to feed, cloth and house their families. The Jet Industrious OHCE group in Alfalfa County is very excited to be conducting this shoe drive. This campaign will raise funds that directly benefit Jet Industrious OHCE and be used for community projects such as
Wood Park. Their goal is to collect 7,600 pairs of shoes. The only way they can do that is if community members step up and help. They are asking everyone in the area to clean out their unwanted, gently worn, used shoes and donate them to Jet Industrious OHCE group. If interested in donating shoes, one may call 580-626-4698 or 580-6264678 for help or in Cherokee, drop the donated shoes off at the Alfalfa County Fairgrounds Exhibit Building or the Alfalfa County or Woods County OSU extension offices before Oct. 31.
Senator’s live pigeon shoot draws criticism By Sean Murphy OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) — Several animal rights groups criticized Republican U.S. Sen. Jim Inhofe on Tuesday for a fundraiser he held earlier this month in his home state of Oklahoma in which live pigeons were thrown into the air for participants to shoot out of the sky. Illinois-based Showing Animals Respect and Kindness, or SHARK, released video that shows dozens of pigeons being killed by shotgun-wielding participants, including Inhofe at the event Sept. 5 in Lone Wolf in southwest Oklahoma. "Hunting is not supposed to be wanton slaughter," said Steve Hindi, the founder and president of SHARK, which is dedicated to ending the practice. "This is the antithesis of hunting. Every hunter, and

every gun owner for that matter, should be infuriated by this." Capt. Tony Woodruff of the Oklahoma Department of Wildlife Conservation's law enforcement division says live pigeon shoots, while not common, are legal in Oklahoma on private property. "Pigeons are one of the animals that are not really protected by federal law since they're non-migratory," Woodruff said. "We're pretty liberal on our laws. We let people do quite a bit here." Inhofe campaign spokesman Rusty Appleton confirmed that the Inhofe did participate in the live pigeon shoot Sept. 5 at the Quartz Mountain Lodge in Lone Wolf. "Sen. Inhofe agrees with the (National Rifle Association) that this is a long-standing traditional shooting

sport," Appleton said. Inhofe, 79, who is seeking his fourth term in the U.S. Senate, was not available for comment. In a brief statement to The Associated Press, NRA spokesman Andrew Arulanandam described live pigeon shoots as a "traditional shooting sport" with many participants in the United States and other countries. But animal rights groups such as People for Ethical Treatment of Animals and the Humane Society of the United States condemn the practice. "We were shocked by the carnage that was shown on the video," said John Goodwin, a spokesman for the Humane Society of the United States. "We truly believe live pigeon shoots are cruel and unnecessary. We were surprised that (Inhofe) engaged in this kind of conduct and hope that he never does so again." Inhofe's Democratic opponent in the November election, Matt Silverstein of Bixby, said he supports the Second Amendment and the right of Oklahomans to hunt, but that the pigeon shoot didn't appear to be hunting. "That was more like shooting fish in a barrel," Silverstein said. "Personally for me, I enjoy hunting, but I don't think I would have enjoyed that."

that are part of U.S. history that need to be taught. "There are things we may not be proud of as Americans," she said. "But we shouldn't be encouraging our kids to think that America is a bad place." A student demonstrator, Tyrone G. Parks, a senior at Arvada High School, said Tuesday that the nation's foundation was built on civil protest, "and everything that we've done is what allowed us to be at this point today. And if you take that from us, you take away everything that America was built off of." The proposal comes from an elected board with three conservative members who took office in November. The other two board members were elected in 2011 and oppose the new plan, which was drafted in response to a national framework for teaching history that supporters say encourages discussion and critical thinking. Detractors, however, fear it could put an outsize emphasis on the
nation's problems. Tension over high school education has cropped up recently in Texas, where conservative school board officials are facing criticism over new textbooks. Meanwhile, in South Carolina, conservatives have called on an education oversight committee to ask the College Board, which oversees Advanced Placement courses, to rewrite their framework to make sure there is no ideological bias. Participating students were not punished, school district spokeswoman Lynn Setzer said. They will receive unexcused absences unless their parents call to relay permission for missed classes, Setzer said. Superintendent Dan McMinimee has met with some of the students and renewed his offer to continue discussions on the issue. "I respect the right of our students to express their opinions in a peaceful manner," he said. "I do, however, prefer that our students stay in class."
