Nation, 6A CHICAGO — Rarely one to leave anything to chance, President Barack Obama is playing it by ear this week as his administration's response to the Ebola scare continues to evolve. Obama's schedule is a work in progress, in a departure from the normal practice in which the president's schedule is previewed days in advance. The blank slate reflects the White House's attempt to stay nimble, leaving Obama room to maneuver amid a public health crisis that has been anything but predictable.

iervseasonstraine resources By Pat Caldwell For the Baker City Herald

The 2014 fire season began slow but gained momentum and quickly evolved into one of the more intricate campaigns in recent memory. "I'd say the season was a complex fire season," Carol Connolly, m edia manager for the Northwest Interagency Coordination Center in Portland said. The 2014 season eventually consumed a large amount of resources, Connolly said. ''We may not have hit recordsin terms ofacres burned but we certainly were pushed to our limits as far as resources," Connolly said.

BRIEFING

The Eastern Oregon RegionalTheatre is having a zombie-themed fundraiser on Thursday, Oct. 30, at the Iron Gate Theatre. They will be showing a double feature of Bela Lugosi's "White Zombie" and the classic "Night of the Living Dead" at 4 p.m. and then again at 8 p.m. Tickets are $2 and available at the door. Refreshments are available for purchase as well. This local theatre company has provided Baker County residents with many opportunities to experience live theatre in its twelve season history. "We produce five to six shows per season," says Board President Kelly Brickman. "Every year we try to pick a variety of shows, from dramas to comedies, musicals, as well as children's shows and family favorites." For this fundraiser, the theatre is trying something new-classic horror movies. "We wanted to show classic movies and decided this first try would be something Halloween themed," Brickman said. Iron Gate Theatre is located on the second floor of the Basche-Sage Mall, on the corner of Main and Broadway.

cal site, to route firefighting resources throughout Oregonand Washington. Connolly said the Northwest was fortunate this year because the rest of the nation, for the most part, did not encounter a severe fire season. "Other states were not having huge fires so the competitionforresources was minimal," she said. Partnership between federal, state and local agencies also paid dividends she said. "Normally in our region we have 11 Hot Shot crews. We had 36 Hot Shot crews in Oregon and Washington. We had people coming in from Montana, Illinois, Georgia, and other eastern states. We needed their resources," she said. At one point in July, Con-

nolly said, 12,000 firefighters manned lines across Washingtonand Oregon as more than 90,000 acres burned.One Oregon fi re, the Buzzard Complex blaze northeast of Burns, traveled 12 miles in four hours. ''We had fires in all corners of the state of Oregon," Connolly said. Still, Connolly said, the seasondid notreach itsfull potential. "Itcould have gone a lot worse," she said. The Wallowa-Whitman National Forest's fire season was prettyclose to average, with 99 lightning fires, fewer than in 2013 i124l but above the 10-year average of 86. The number ofhumancaused fires, though, was below average, at 16, compared with a 10-year average of 25.

M ost of theforest'slarger fires this year were in the Eagle Cap Wilderness or Hells Canyon. The 2014 fire campaign, though, has pretty much wound down over the past couple of weeks, although conditions remain abnormallydryin much ofOregon. One notable success, Connolly said, was the fact no firefighters died battling blazes in the region during the summer. ''We had no firefi ghter fatalities in Oregon and Washington which is a huge success obviously. Our No. 1 resources at risk on any fire is, of course, our firefighters," Connolly said. About 1.25 million acres were scorched during the season, she said.

fall By Jayson Jacoby llacoby©bakercityherald.com

Baker City's balmy autumn will be taking a break this week. For a few days, anyway. The recent warm spell should peak today with a high temperature of about 71. That's 12 degrees above average. But forecast ersfor the National Weather Service say a potent cold front will barrel into Baker County from the west late today or early Tuesday. This will bring rain showers to most of the county, possibly an inch or two of snow to the mountains above 7,000 feet, and push Tuesday's high temperaturebelow average. That's happened on only one other day since summer's end. See FallIPage2A

TURNING BACK THE PAGES 50 YEARS AGO from the Democrat-Herald Oct. 20, 1964 Labor Commissioner N.O. Nilsen said the quality of the apprenticeship program in Oregon is excellent, however, more participating employers are needed. He said an employer must be convinced that it is to his advantage to participate in the program that would provide enough skilled men at all times. Nilsen and Charles Hoffman, State Director of Apprenticeship, held interviews with the Democrat-Herald yesterday following the fourth quarterly meeting of the State Apprenticeship Council at the Baker Motor Inn. 25 YEARS AGO from the Democrat-Herald Oct. 20, 1989 Photo: It's somewhere — Bricks for the Old Post Office Square Park in Baker arrived this week. Dave Daily, left, followed by Suzy and Brian Cole, city/county economic developer, and Julie Lattin, city employee, hustled Wednesday night to arrange1,140 bricks in alphabetical order and so family members would be placed together when the bricks are laid. Cole said work should begin Monday to place the $25-$35 bricks in the park. 10 YEARS AGO from the Baker City Herald Oct. 20, 2004 When longtime Baker Middle school teacher Gary Shermer considers remodeling the antiquated Baker Middle School buildings, he says the phrase "putting earrings on a pig" rings in his head. "Can we live in these two buildings? Yes. Is it ideal for our students. No," he said. Shermer is a member of a task force formed to study the issue of remodeling the middle school or working with a corporation to build a new school. ONE YEAR AGO from the Baker City Herald Oct. 28, 2013 Children attending the Methodist Church'sThursday Activity Club have set their sights on bringing sunshine into the lives of others as Halloween approaches. The children who gathered for the Oct. 24 club session brought a supply of creativity for a pumpkin-decorating party. The pumpkins were taken to St. Alphonsus Care Center for the enjoyment of its residents. Before the children let their creative juices flow, Juli Romero, one of the adult leaders, read from "Have You Filled A BucketToday?: A Guide to Daily Happiness for Kids" by author Carol McCloud. In reading the book, Romero encouraged the children to decorate the pumpkins as a way of "filling buckets" of the nursing home residents by showing them they care about them.

EDITORIAL

' ower' a we on' wan i n r e on Editorial from The (Bend) Bulletin:

Add flowering rush to the list of things we really don't want in Oregon. The invasive water plant has turned up just east of McNary Dam on the Columbia River not far from Hermiston, and the state is scrambling to get rid of it. There are six patches of the plant along the Oregon side of the river, according to an article in the Capital Press in Salem, and the state Department of Agriculture is eager to get in and literally pull them out. There's a problem, however: That part of the river is controlled by the Army Corps of Engineers, and any plan for rush removal must gain federal approval before moving forward. The plant, which originated in Eurasia, was first identified in North America in the St. Lawrence River in 1879, according to the Montana State University Extension Service. It has spread across the northern tier of the United States and through most of Canada and now threatens Oregon and Washington. The plant is a problem here in at least a couple of ways. It clogs waterways, making them impassable, and it is diKcult to get rid of other than by pulling. Should it get into local irrigation systems it can do tremendous damage to ditches, and in the Columbia and its tributaries it presents a threat to salmon and other native fish, in part because it provides shelter for predatory, non-native ones. It thrives in the cool-night climate of Oregon. Gaining federal approval to remove the rush is not necessarily a simple thing, meanwhile. Tim Butler, who manages the state's noxious-weed control program, will meet with corps oKcials this month to try to work something out. With luck, that plan will not require creation of a full environmental impact statement, though that is a possibility. Corps oKcials are, he says, as eager as he is to get moving. It would be a shame if regulations pushed rush removal too far into the future. With both state and federal recognition of the threat, surely a way can be found to address it sooner, rather than later. If the National Environmental Policy Act does not allow for emergencies, it should be changed.

Your views Warner already lost; he shouldn't be in the running How canFred Warner even think about running? He knew he couldn't win as a Democrat so he switched to a Republican in name only and he lost again. So he became a Republican, how can he even be in the race at all? He has already lost as a member of the Republican party. How can a write-in be even legal. Fred is just trying to do what he does best and that is try and confuse people to think he is still in the running. Harold Reed Baker City

The reach of Common Core national education standards and tests has moved beyond public school walls. Last month a home-schooling family in New Jersey received a letter from Westfield Public School District superintendent Margaret Dolanthe. It outlined what she said was district home-school policy requiring families to "submit a letter of intent lto home-school) and an outline of their curriculum which must follow New Jersey Common Core content standards." Dismayed, the family reached out to the Home School Legal Defense Association for assistance. HSLDA senior counsel Scott Woodruff wrote to Dolanthe on behalf of the family, arguing the state's home-schooling laws do not require adherence to Common Core. The school district dropped their demands, but informed the family their curriculum should still be "guided by the New Jersey Common Core State Standards." According to Woodruff, this shows "a rather troubling mindset — almost an assumption that'since we have to follow common core, so should you.' " Indeed, the circumstance raises important questionsabout the scope ofthe so-called voluntary standards. Common Core was developed in 2009 by privately-run Student Achievement Partners in conjunction with the National Governors Association and Council for Chief State School Officers. However, federal incentives were immediately attached to Common Core by the Obama administration to incentivize states to sign on to the standards by the 2014-2015 school year. Common Core's architects may have welcomed administration support. After all, they advocated forfederalassistance in implementing the standards in their 2008 report"Benchmarking for Success." Forty-six states signed on to the standards without taking into consideration its full costs, both financially and in terms of standards-setting autonomy. Although the federal fingerprints

STATE BRIEFING Redmond mayor's brother contests firing BEND iAPl — The brother of a Central Oregon mayor says he was unfairly fired when he couldn't get the mayor's support for the re-election campaign of former Deschutes County District Attorney Patrick Flaherty. Bruce Endicott is suing both Flaherty and the county, The Bulletin in Bend reports 4ttp J/bit.ly/1sYWc1H l. Neither Flaherty nor Endicott could be reached Saturday by The Associated Press. Endicott says in his defamation lawsuit that Flaherty only hired him as office administrator because ofhis political connections — Endicott's brother, George Endicott, is mayor of nearby Redmond. According to the complaint, Flaherty sought the mayor's support. When the mayor didn't get behind his campaign and Flaherty lost, Bruce Endicott says he was fired. Bruce Endicott is seeking $750,000, alleging defamation and intentional interference with economic relations. Endicott is one of several former employees who have filed suit against theformer districtattorney. When Flaherty took office in 2011, he soon fired five of the office's prosecutors. Three of them — Phil Duong, Brentley Foster and Jody Vaughan — filed suit against Flaherty for $22 million, alleging wrongful termination, sex discrimination, unfair labor practices and violations of their First Amendment rights. They agreed to a $710,000 settlement in July 2013. In January, Flaherty settled a lawsuit with a former employee who alleged she was wrongfully fired. Flaherty fired Sharon Sweet in October 2011, saying the investigator's work was not"consistently above expectations" and she violated personnel rules by not disclosing her involvement in a romantic relationship with another investigator. Sweet said the DA created a hostile work environment for employeeswho exercised theirrighttoprotected speech. Former Bend City Council member John Hummel made an issue of what he called a"toxic" environment in the Deschutes County district attorney's office in unseating Flaherty as prosecutor after a contentious campaign that ended in May.

Investigators on Friday were still trying to sort out what happened Thursday in an Intel Corp. parking lot, Lt. Mike Rouches iROOSH'-uhzl of the Hillsboro police said. The father parked the car about 11 a.m. Authorities were called about 5 p.m., Rouches said. The 6-month-old girl was unresponsive when emergency responders arrived, and the child had no obvious injuries, Rouches said. An autopsy was performed Friday but a medical examiner saidmore testresultsareneeded beforethecauseofdeath can be determined, KATU-TV reported. Rouches said late Friday he had no information on the autopsy. Investigators were interviewing the parents, who haven't been publicly identified, and the father's explanation should be considered preliminary, Rouches said. The father took the baby to a doctor's appointment on Thursday morning and afterward was supposed to take the child to daycare.

wielded the veto pen just five times. He said he matured and learned better how to use the power of the governor's office to achieve his

goals. He persuaded lawmakers to change the system of delivering health care under Medicaid, the state's health insurance plan for the poor. Rather than having doctors work independently from each other and paying them for each procedure they perform,the state forced them to work together and tied payments in part to the health of their patients. He also convinced President Barack Obama's administration to give Oregon nearly $2 billion in startup costs, promising an equal amount of savingslater.

He eliminated the electedposition ofsuperintendent of public instruction and created a new oversight board — which he appoints and chairs — to manage education policy and funding from preschool through college. But there were stumbles. The first education czar that he appointed, Rudy Crew, came with high hopes and a big salary, but left after less than a year. The board was supposed to press school districts to improve on a variety of metrics from third grade readingscores to graduation rates, but it's shown little capacity to force districts to change their behavior.

He persuaded Democrats to voteagainstpublic-employee unions and Republicans and raise taxes in order to cut benefits for retired government workers. The move diminished a massive unfunded liability in the state's pension fund and savedbillionsfor state and local governments, but it means retirees will see their incomes struggle to keep pace with inflation. That success was quickly overshadowed by the failure of Cover Oregon, the state's health insurance exchange.

CHICAGO — Rarely one to leave anything to chance, President Barack Obama is playing it by ear this week as his administration's response to the Ebola scan. continues to evolve. After waking up in his own bed Monday at his family's home in Chicago, Obama plans to vote early for the midterms and attend a fundraiser for Democrats. How he11 spend the rest of the weekis uncertain. That's because Obama's schedule this weekis a workin progress, in adeparturefrom the normal practice in which the president' sscheduleispreviewed days in advance. The blank slate reflects the White House's attempt to stay nimble, leaving Obama room to maneuver amid a public health crisis that has been anything but predictable. Last week, Obama twice had to cancel planned campaign trips at the last minute to stayin Washington to focus on Ebola. This week, Obamais hoping to avoid such last-minute cancellations and show he's singularly focused on the task at hand. So even with Democrats counting on their president to help get out the vote, Obama hasn't made anypromises to campaign this week with candidates. Even the U.S.-led military operation against the Islamic State group might take a lower profile as Obama seeks to reassure an anxious public that stopping Ebolain its tracks is Priority No. 1.

THE WORLD IN BRIEF Nazi war criminals collected Social Security OSIJEK, Croatia iAPl — Former Auschwitz guard Jakob Denzinger lived the American dream. His plastics company in the Rust Belt town of Akron, Ohio, thrived. By the late 1980s, he had acquired the trappings of success: a Cadillac DeVille and a Lincoln Town Car, a lakefront home, investments in oil and real estate. Then the Nazi hunters showed up. In 1989, as the U.S. government prepared to strip him ofhis citizenship, Denzinger packed a pair of suitcases and fled to Germany. Denzinger later settled in this pleasant town on the Drava River, where he lives comfortably, courtesy of U.S. taxpayers. He collects a Social Security payment of about $1,500 each month, nearly twice the take-home pay of an average Croatian worker. Denzinger, 90, is among dozens of suspected Nazi war criminals and SS guards who collected millions of dollars in Social Security payments after being forced out of the United States, an Associated Press investigation found.

WASHINGTON iAPl — The U.S.military says it has airdropped weapons, ammunition and medical supplies to Kurdish forces defending the Syrian city of Kobani against Islamic State militants. The airdrops Sunday were the first of their kind and followed weeks of U.S. and coalition airstrikes in and near Kobani, near the Turkish border. The U.S. said earlier in the day that it had launched 11 airstrikes overnight in the Kobani area. In a statement, U.S. Central Command said U.S. C-130 cargoplanesmade multipledropsofarms and supplies provided by Kurdish authorities in Iraq. It said they were intended to enable continued resistance to Islamic State efforts to take full control of Kobani. The airdrops are almost certain to anger the Turkish government, which has said it would oppose any U.S. arms transfers to the Kurdish rebels in Syria. Turkey views the main Kurdish group in Syria as an extension of the Turkish Kurd group known as the PKK, which has waged a 30-year insurgency in Turkey and is designated a terror

blaming Kitzhaber for failing to keep tabs on the progress. More recently, Kitzhaber has spent more than a week battling reports about his fiancee's past. Cylvia Hayes acknowledged that she accepted money to enter a fraudulent marriage with an immigrant seeking to remain in the United States, and later was involved in a plan to grow marijuana. More politically perilous for Kitzhaber, however, were reports that she's used her position as first lady to advance her private consulting business. Kitzhaber's rival, Richardson, says the Cover Oregon failure, the lack of education progress under Crew and the allegations against Hayes all point to a need for someone new. He says Kitzhaber has a tendency to push through loftyideas but remains aloof from the details of implementing them. 'The governor wants a fourth term, but he hasn't earned it," Richardson said in a recent debate.

AND SO IT GROWS

Eggplant Meatdalls

CHRIS CQLLINS

Getting veggies ready for the winter Our unbelievably warm Indian summer was blown away by a cold wind and heavyrain — and thefi rstpowdered sugar sprinkling on the Elkhorns — last week. The days leading up to the realization that it really is fall have found me scrambling as usual to take care of the tomatoes, green beans and plums produced right in my own backyard. When I look back at the photos we took at planting time, I still can't believe that those empty raised-bed boxes were filled to overflowing once again by harvest time. But now, I must admit, with still more canning and drying and freezing to complete — I'm tired of it all. My 76-year-old neighbors down the street, Carolyn and Ramon Lara stopped by the other night with some campaign literature and we got to talking about gardening. Seems they also aretired of tending the fruits and vegetables produced by their lush garden. Unlike me, however, they are finished until next year. And for them finished means they havepreserved35 to 40 pintseach of five different types of fruits and a similar number of green beans along with several varietiesofsalsa.They've also chopped and frozen zucchini and put up a zucchini soup base that will provide a comforting meal throughout the winter.

DORY'S DIARY DQRQTHYSWART FLESHMAN

Little squirrel causes a big inconvenience For the second time this fall, the electricity in my part of town was off. When I arrived home from town and the garage door wouldn't open, my first thought was to replace the batteries since my neighbor and I had been through that very thing not long before. I carried all of my groceries in the house by way of the sidewalk, front door, and living room to the kitchen, a trek much longer than when parking in the garage. Nevertheless I didn't want my dairy products to sit in the car withoutrefrigeration, so Im ade the effortto getthem into therefrigerator. That's when I learned that the electricity had gone off and my batteries were still in working order, for the light in therefrigeratorwas offaswell.So was my cordless phone and the electric clocks had blank faces. For a few minutes I couldn't help feeling irked at squirrels that chew the lines and cut off our electricity through the efforts of such a little fellow. But, I knew it didn't know any better, if that's what was causing the outage again this time, but it just seemed in this day and age thatwe should beable to protect such an important household usage from a little animal. The worst part of not having electricity that runs most of the things in one's household is resetting the clocks. Fortunately, I have only three electric ones —stove,microwave,and bedside — so you wouldn't think there would be much agitation in putting them to rights again. SeeDory/Page 2B

I have been having fun with food recently and have come acrossanother favoritevegetarian dish. This is easy to make and can be made ahead of time. The eggplant meatballs with theroastedpepper and tomato sauce is delicious when served over julienne zucchini, just one more way to make it a super healthy and hearty dish. I served this the other night and given the choice the men ate regular pasta and the women picked the zucchini pasta. But I need to add that when I make the julienne zucchini my husband has really enjoyed it. A julienne slicer looks similar to a potatopeeler butitslicesyour vegetables into strings, like spaghetti.

e rea manuresa aconinues I have had comments about organicfertilizer sowant to pass some along. Maryann in Huntington said: "I read with interest your dilemma on which manure to use in the organic family garden. I have been reading up on this myself and one resource mentioned that it takes four years for cow manure to break down sufficiently to be used in the garden." Kathy Hunter had this to say: aWe organic gardeners in Wallowa County are worried about our compost and our mulch. It seems that if wheat fields or hayfields are sprayed for weeds this travels on the straw or even through a horse that eats the grass, and the resulting straw or manure is toxic to a garden. What is left to compost or mulch with?" Wow, that is a question I don't have an answer for. A man called and asked if I knew where he could get a load of dairy manure like he used to get in Washington state. I of course didn't. He saiditwas fantasticand really made his garden wonderful, and with no weeds.

GRANNY'S GARDEN CRISTINE MARTIN I have seen iand smelled) the dairies in Idaho with large rows of composting manure. I have no idea how a person could get a load of it, but maybe the nurseries here in the area would get a truckload to sell to we who don't need a huge amount. Well, maybe they do, I have never asked. Before we put down our grass sod we got mulch from where we take yard waste at City Garbage and it seemed to work OK. I only use manure, etc. to add organic matter to our clay soil and make it easier to work with. I have no objections to fertilizer. I use Miracle Grow from time to time, but Ferin Wool, who grew super gardens, told me years ago that he used agood dry fertilizerto side dress his garden. SeeManure/Page 2B

LA GRANDE FALL BEAUTIFICATION AWARDS

SO IT GROWS

la randehonorsyre yroyerties By Cherise Kaechele VVesCom News Service

The Dustin home received the fall residential beautification award and the community is invited to look at the hard work put in by the couple. James and Sharon Dustin, who live at 1802 Second St. in La Grande, were granted the award by the La Grande Landscape and Forestry Commission last week. "It was an honor," Sharon Dustin said.aWe moved into the house in 1993 from Las Vegas.a Dustin said she wasn't able to grow a lotin the harsh weather of Nevada. In fact, her husband said she had a "black thumb." Dustin works outside every day, she said. "I've learned about how to grow through the years," she sald. Dustin had a neighbor, who has since passed away, who was really the one to inspire her to put in the effort and grow the numerous types of flowers around her home. "I didn't like getting my hands dirty," Dustin said."My neighbor Marcy Earnest said it's OK to get my hands dirty."

also flopped. So I was more than a little leery of trying my luck with a similar strategy. Remembering my front-porch visit with the Laras, I began to wonder if they might have some advice. So I gave them a call. Boy, was I glad I did. The couple have perfected systems foreither storing their crops inside orleaving them outside — my preference because that would not require the labor ofharvesting. Rather than packing loose leaves around the crowns of thecarrotsior beetsorrutabagasl where they crest out of the soil, like my Internet sources suggested, the Laras have a better idea. They bag their leaves as usual and place the plastic bags over the plants and then cover the bags with a tarp, which is anchored on one side. The tarp keeps water from freezing on the bags. The cover can be easily rolled offand thefresh vegetables picked straight from the garden until spring. A covering of snow over the tarp adds to the insulation, so don't be too eager to shovel more snow than necessary off the tarp, Ramon advises. Ifyou prefer to harvestyour crops earlier and bring them inside for easier access, you'll have to find a cool room with high humidity. "Carrots are derived from a muck-growing plant," Ramon says. "They like moisture." He and his wife have found the perfect spot — a cool room in their basement. They store the carrots in plastic containers they've poked holes in to improve circulation. aThegl keep there for months," he says."As long as you can keep the humidity up, thegl do fine." Beets don't last quite as well, but they also can be stored in the ground or inside. And the Laras always leave their parsnips in the ground. Sounds like a recipe for success. I hope the system works for me. I'm looking forward to eating fresh, homegrown carrot sticks, and adding them to my stew or even plucking one to produce a nose for Frosty the Snowman when winter sets in.

Sharon Dustin and her dog, Bruce Almighty, sit on the bench outside of her home.

The Dustins' home is alwaysdecorated seasonally, she said. Right now, the fall decorations are out and she has them on her porch and throughout her home. Dustin received the call she had won the award on her birthday, Oct. 13, she sald. "It was a nice birthday present," she said. Additionally, the Forestry Commission chose Oregon

UPPER MARLBORO, Md. — Marching onto the campaign trail for the first time this year, President Barack Obama accused Republicans of peddlingfearand cynicism on Sunday as he rallied voters for Democrat Anthony Brown's campaign for governor in a heavily black corner of Maryland. In front of a rowdy crowd of about 8,000 people — plus an overflow crowd in a gym next-door— Obama painted Brown as a champion for the American Dream during a rally that echoed many of the same themes as Obama's 2008 and 2012 campaigns. Echoing an argument that's become his party's mantra this election season, Obama said the midterms would come down to one thing: ''Who is going to fight for you?" "The Republican Party can keep telling you what they're against," Obama said, riSng off a long list: affordable health care, immigration reform, action on climate change, to name a few."But the good news is Democrats keep telling you what things we're for. And the things we're for are things that will help working families." At a rally that had the feeling of a gospel service, a localpastoropened his prayer of thanks by noting that the slaves who helped build the White House could have never anticipated that one of their own would one day occupy the home, evoking chants of"amen" from the audience.

Just next to the public high school gymnasium where Obama held his rally sits Barack Obama Elementary School. 'This will be a done dealif you vote," Obama said. Though limited in his ability to help his party this year, Obama has sought to use his own policies to frame an economic message that can lift up Democratic candidates across the country. In Maryland, Democrats seized on Obama's call to raise the federal minimum wage by raising their state minimum wage this year despite the refusal in Congress to take that step. In radio ads and other appearances, Obama has also sought to rev up the same votingblocsthathelped elect him twice — including minorities, women and young

Obama's rally in Upper Marlboro just east of Washington marked his first major foray into the 2014 midterm elections. Obama was supposed to rally last week in Connecticut for Gov. Dannel Malloy, but postponed that visit to focus on Ebola. Although Obama has raised money for Democratsthisyear ata feverish pace, he's stayed away from appearing in public with candidates — due in large part to his sagging approval ratings in key states. Obama will rally in the coming weeks for another half-dozen Democratic candidatesfor governor, but is not venturing into the conservative-leaning states where Democrats are fighting their toughest Senate races. Support for Obama still runs high in DemocraticleaningMaryland — and

The final weekend of Greater Oregon League football could result in a three-way tie for the leaguechampionship.

For Baker to be included, the Bulldogs must win Friday. And, they must defeat Ontario by 8 or more points.

they did." Baker's offense resembled that ofthe Oregon Ducksin the early going — a quickstrike style. After stopping Mac-Hi's opening drive, Baker needed justone play to score. Porter Cline did the honors, racing 81 yards for the score. Then, after stopping MacHi again at midfield, Cline scooted 50 yards for Baker's second touchdown. The Bulldogs led 14-0 after one quarter. Baker had the ball two plays and just 22 seconds in the quarter. Baker then slowed down beforescoring itsthird touchdown. The Bulldogs needed six plays before Mason Powell swept around the end for a 39-yard score with 8:19 left in the first half. Powell then caught a pass from Keaton Bachman for the conversion and a 22-0 Baker lead. The Bulldogs then went to the air to complete the firsthalf scoring. Bachman connected for 27 yards to Grant Berry for one score, and 15 yards to Powell foranother tobuild a 34-0 halfbme lead. Mac-Hi scored on its first possessionofthe second half to cutBaker'slead to34-7, but the Bulldogs answered quickly.

If Baker and La Grande win there would be a three-way tie for the crown. Then the Azzi tie-breaking system would come into play to determine post-season berths.

Under the Azzi system teams are awarded points for point differential against the opponents they are tied with.

Cline had his second big game rushing, gaining 216 yards on 15 carries. Bachman was 8-of-11 passingfor210 yards.Powell

caught three passes for 112 yards, and Berry three for 35 yards. Johnson was pleased with most of the Bulldogs' play. "Special teams did well," he said."I don't think we allowed them to get to the 40 on any of the kickoff returns. And, the offense and defense

played well." One area Johnson was not pleased with was the number of penalties the Bulldogs racked up — 15 for 140 yards. It was the second game in a row that the Bulldogs have been whistled for double-digit penalties. "Penalties are something we need to get some control over," the Baker coach said.

Johnson said the Bulldogs will be ready for Ontario Friday. "It's a big high school game. There will be a lot on the line," he said.

If Baker tops Ontario by 8 or more points the Bulldogs would drop to minus 2. An 8-point loss also would drop Ontario to minus 2. Baker would advance due to its win over Ontario. A Baker win of more than 8 points would send the Bulldogs to the post season as well. La Grande has clinched the GOL's other state berth.

Oregon players wore bright green throwback jerseys with yellow pants in commemoration of The Pick, and Wheaton himself retraced the path of his interception sitting on the back of a bright green motorcycle in pregame ceremonies. "The atmosphere of this game, everything we paid homage to, is really cool,"Mariota said."These are the reasons why you come back to school, is to enjoy experiences like this." Washington's opening series was

capped by Van Winkle's 33-yard field goal. After Oregon went ahead on Freeman's 37-yard touchdown run up the middle, the Huskies narrowed it with Van Winkle's 40-yard field goal. Early in the second quarter Oregon went for it on fourth down and Freeman scored on a 3-yard option pitch from Mariota to make it 14-6. The Ducks extended the lead with Freeman's 1-yard touchdown. Oregon kicker Matt Wogan missed a 33-yard field goal wide left, but Erick Dargen intercepted Miles on Washington's ensuing series and two plays later Mariota hit Byron Marshall with a 23-yard touchdown pass to make it 28-6. It was Miles' first interception of the season. Dwayne Stanford leaped above

two defenders to pull down a 16-yard touchdown pass from Mariota that put the Ducks up 35-6 in the third quarter. Washington scored its first touchdown of the game with 4:45 left in the third when Miles connected on a 3-yard scoring pass to Deontae Coopertomake it35-13.

Freeman appeared to get his fifth touchdown on a 2-yard run late, but a holding penalty on the offense called it back. The Ducks settled for Wogan's 26-yard field goal for the final margin. "Royce is Royce," Mariota said."I don't know how to explain it. He's done amazing things all year." Oregon finished with 218 yards rushing, and 554 total yards of offense. "I could only see what you guys can see. It was too easy," Huskies coach Chris Petersen said of the Ducks' ground game."They're very good at running the ball and they're one of the top teams in the country in terms of doing those things."

LOS ANGELES —Cody Kessler spent two seasons watching Matt Barkley claim nearly every passingrecord at Southern California and in the Pac-12, soaking up every bit ofinformation he could and hoping he would get the chance one day to chase them down. Kessler did that Saturday, throwing seven touchdown passes in the No. 22 Trojans' 56-28 victory over Colorado to break the school game record Barkley set against theBuffaloesin 2011. "It's an honor for me to break his record, but fm thankful he set the bar so high and taught me as much as he did," said Kessler about Barkley, who he refe rred to ashis"big brother." Nelson Agholor caught three TD passes kom Kessler, who passed the record on Steven Mitchell's diving 24-yard catch in the third quarter of a blowout victory fortheTrojans (5-2,4-1l. Coach Steve Sarkisian spent the week challenging Kessler to be more aggressive and revitalize a passing offense thatinrecentweeks looked too much like the reviled bubble screen-heavy scheme previously employed by Lane Ki5n. Kessler responded by giving his receivers and tight ends chances to make plays down thefi eldkom the start, exploiting a vulnerableColorado defense that seemed focused on limiting running back Javorius Allen instead.

Manning setsrecordas Broncosromii ByAmie Stapleton AP Pro FootballWrlter

DENVER — Peyton Manning's receivers played keep-away with his milestone memento and the NFL's new leader in career touchdown passes toyed with the San Francisco 49ers in the Denver Broncos' 42-17 victory Sunday night. Manning went into the showdown two TDs shy of Brett Favre's record of 508, and threw four touchdown passes to reach 510. "It's specialbecause ofthe way our team played," said Manning, who surpassed Favre's mark with an 8-yard strike to Demaryius Thomas late in the second quarter. As he went to retrieve the ball, his teammates had some fun. Thomas tossed the ball over ManningtoEmmanuel Sanders, who lobbed it to Wes Welker. From there, Welker dished it back to Sanders, who flipped it to

Julius Thomas — all of Manning's favoritetargetsgetting into the act. "Those guys are all great athletes and my vertical leap isn't what it used to be. I haven't played keep-away since I was 8 years old," Manning said."That is something I will always remember." The Broncos had actually talked about doing something like that but Manning said he was surprised his teammates went through with it. He shouldn't have been, Demaryius Thomas said, revealing that Manning actually had them practice it Friday. "It's easy. You did that when you were kids," Thomas said."It's like keep the ball away &om the guy in the middle." Manning said he just didn't think they'd go through with it. "I'm a little bit hurt by it, the fact they're kind of pick-

ing onme," Manning feigned. "I've lost my vertical leap. It's not there anymore. My sideto-side agility is not quite as quick. So, it hurt me." Then again, Manning said he deserved to get picked on "based on my non-graceful play when I tripped on the playbefore.So,itisprobably fitting. That was pretty funny. I'll remember a lot of things about tonight, but I'll definitely remember that part of it and the fact they had the guts to go ahead and go through with it." Manning finally got the ball along with congratulations &om his teammates and coaches. The souvenir won't end up on Manning's mantle, however — the Pro Football Hall of Fame has a nice spot all ready for it.

Jurgensen, Tom Brady, Drew Brees, Aaron Rodgers and of course, Favre. "I want to say congratulations for breaking the touchdown record," Favre said. "I'm not surprised. You've been a wonderful player and I've enjoyed watching you play. I've enjoyed competing against you. I wish you great successfortherestofthe season and the rest of your career." Manning added a 40-yard TD throw to Demaryius Thomas after Aqib Talib's interception in the third quarter that made it 28-10, and then Demaryius Thomas set up another score with a 49-yard catch. This time, running back Ronnie Hillman darted through the line for a career-long 37-yard run that made it 35-10.

Hundley accounted for 424 yardsofoffenseto overcome his own fumble and interception as the Bruins i5-2, 2-2 Pac-12l won at Memorial Stadium for the first time since 1998. It wasn't easy with the Bruins not taking the lead for good until Ka'imi Fairbairn kicked his third field goal, a 26-yarder with 3:40 remaining that provided the go-ahead score and -

helped UCLA get back on the winning track atter losses to Utah and Oregon. The win was sealed when Marcus Rios made a juggling interception on a JaredGotfpass atthe 2-yard line with 51 seconds left to thwart Cal's comeback attempt. Gotf threw for 303 yards and two touchdowns for

A pairofwild cards,set to open Tuesday night in a World Series offering most everything a fan would want to watch. Great gloves, tremendous speed, ace pitching, clutch hitting and a bit of power.

early in spring training. By August, the Royals were rolling. They swept the visiting Giants in a threegame series at Kaufman Stadium, beating Bumgarner, Tim Hudson and Tim Lincecum, and stealing seven bases in the finale. Now, they meet again. The Royals, atter going 8-0 in the AL playotfs, back in the World Series for the first time since beating the Cardinals in 1985. That's 29 years — the average age on the Royals' postseason roster is 28. Cain, the AL Championship Series MVP, and Kansas City will have had five days otfbefore Game 1. In the past, long layoffs in October have often meant rust more than rest. The Giants, trying to extend their every-other-year success atter winning crowns in 2010 and 2012. Sandoval, the popular Kung Fu Panda and a former World Series MVP, and his pals also have alengthy break after

finishing otf St. Louis in the NL Championship Series on Thursday night. This will be the first time thata pairofwild cardshave played in the Series since a seven-game thriller between the Angels and Giants in 2002. And this meeting has a fair amount of mystery to it, pitting clubs that don't share a ton of history. They've played12 times since interleague play began, with Kansas City winning nine. Giants reliever Jeremy Afeldt pitched for the Royals the last time they visited San Francisco — that was in 2005, when Barry Bonds was still the giant name in orange and black. Hall of Famer Gaylord Perry also pitched for both teams. He earned his first career win in 1962 with the Giants when their biggest star was Willie Mays. Perry posted his 314th and final victory in 1983 with

the Royals, helped by a home run from Willie Mays Aikens. Chances are, both teams will bring out their greats starting Tuesday. M ays and Bonds fi gureto be onthe fi eld in San Francisco, with McCovey Cove barely beyond the right-field wall. George Brett has been hollering from a stadium suite in KC, with the dancing water fountains just past the center-field fence.

Arizona State rolls past Stanford TEMPE, Ariz. iAPl — Arizona State coach Todd Graham has pointed to Stanford as a model of what the Sun Devils should aspire to as a program: The character, the discipline, the efficiency and, certainly, the winning. But each time the teams met on the field, Arizona State fell flat, overrun by the powerful Cardinal. That's what made this one so sweet. Not only did the Sun Devils finally beat Stanford,

they won in Stanford-like fashion. Dominating on both sides of the ball, the 17th-ranked Sun Devils cleared a big hurdle by racing past No. 23 Stanford 26-10 Saturday night. eTo turn the tables and beat a team like that and dominate them physically the way we did, becauseoftherespectwehave fortheir program, that one meant more to me personally than anywin we have had,"Graham said.
