DES MOINES (AP) — A storm spotter was hospi-talized in Iowa on Monday after he was struck by light-ning while watching a system that left swollen rivers, power outages, trees down and campers overturned.

More strong storms rumbled through the Midwest on Monday night, with the National Weather Service saying a tornado was confirmed near Cedar Vale, Kan-sas. It also cited hail the size of pingpong balls. Thun-derstorms elsewhere were bringing heavy rains and strong winds.

Two tornadoes hit in northern Michigan, the De-troit Free Press reported — one in Ostego County and another in Kalkaska County. Jim Keysor, meteo-rologist with the National Weather Service office in Gaylord, said they dam-aged some property but caused no injuries. To the south of the state, flood-ing closed some road-ways.

In Iowa, the most af-fected was the northwest part of the state. East of Denison a storm spotter was hit by lightning as he observed the storm. Crawford County Emer-gency Management Director Gregory Miller said the man was transferred to a Sioux City hospital where he was treated for his injuries.

Five travel trailers were overturned at Yellow Smoke Park, a county operated campground east of Denison. The Labor Day campers found safety in a shelter at the park after being alert to the coming storm, Miller said. No injuries were reported.

Winds of at least 70 miles an hour knocked down numerous trees and left limbs and other debris strewn about in Denison and Sergeant Bluff, where a few peo-ple were treated for minor injuries.

“This is the worst storm I’ve seen in 40 years here,” said Mayor Pro Tem Ron Hanson, the Sioux City Jour-nal reported.

Outbuildings on two farms were damaged in Craw-ford County, Miller said.

Heavy rain estimated at about six inches in two hours caused flash flooding.

Some Iowa driving instructors have criminal record

DES MOINES (AP) — At least 10 driving instruc-tors licensed in Iowa have criminal records or driving infractions in their past, but they’ve been allowed to keep working with teens because of a forgiv-ing state law.

The Des Moines Regis-ter reports at least three driving instructors have

drunken driving convic-tions, two have assault convictions and four have more than a dozen driving citations and other infrac-tions.

Ever since 2010, state law has been more forgiv-ing to driver’s ed instruc-tors who are involved in accidents or have multiple moving violations on their

records.“Our code has always

given people a couple free-bies,” said Mark Lowe, di-rector of the Iowa Depart-ment of Transportation’s Motor Vehicle Division.

That doesn’t sit very well with Jean Feller, who

discovered this summer that her son’s driver’s edu-cation instructor was using another instructor’s iden-tity. The instructor had previously pleaded guilty to providing wine to student drivers in 2012, and he has been charged with identity theft.

“If they are teaching kids to follow the laws and the rules of the road, then they should be observing the rules of the road them-selves,” said Feller, who lives in Oxford.

One of the instructors with numerous infractions on his record is Michael Gossen, who also serves as an associate principal at Mount Pleasant Middle School. Eight of Gossen’s 12 infractions are speeding tickets. Nine of Gossen’s infractions are over five years old.

“I had some events hap-pen in my life that changed my perspective and behav-iors, and I wanted to use that as a position of lever-age for kids,” Gossen said. “Because they’re well in my past, I think they provide good learning experiences for kids, too.”

Nationally, there isn’t a firm standard for driving in-structor’s qualifications be-cause each state determines what’s acceptable. But Sharon Fife with the Asso-ciation of National Stake-holders in Traffic Safety Education says many states are more strict than Iowa.

“I’ve never hired any-one with an OWI. Never,”

said Fife, who is also past president of the Driving School Association of the Americas, an international

organization of driving school owners headquar-tered in Ohio. “We have 25 instructors at our school, and we probably have one or two that have a moving violation. So they’re clean. And they should be clean. If you’re a traffic safety professional, your records should be clean. Period.”

Many Iowa schools have hired private companies to provide driver education because of the expense and the challenges in finding certified teachers. So the schools rely on the compa-nies to perform background checks on teachers.

“If it was economically feasible, we’d rather do it ourselves,” said Superin-tendent Mike Jorgensen of the Washington school dis-trict in southeast Iowa.

The state requires public schools to provide driver’s education.

INSTRUCTORS:


Several highways were covered at various points during the storm. Fast mov-ing water broke through a farm retention dam in Deni-son, flooding Iowa Highway 39.

About 70 residents of a neighborhood in Missouri Valley were evacuated after water from the overflowing Boyer River broke through a levee early Monday two miles east of Missouri Valley near U.S. Highway 30.

A shelter was set up in the city of 2,700, but most peo-ple were staying with rela-tives or friends, Mayor Clint Sargent said.

It was unclear how long the evacuation would be needed but the river was receding, he said. Missouri Valley is about 24 miles north of Council Bluffs.

In central Iowa, waist-high water flooded cars at

the Iowa State Fairgrounds in Des Moines.

In Nebraska, Omaha offi-cials said eight people float-ing down the fast-moving Elkhorn River abandoned their floating devices as the storm approached and walked through bean fields to the nearest road.

No one was hurt, but res-cue crews said they were frustrated that people were on the river when they knew a storm was coming, WOWT television reported.

make it a smooth transition,” Rink said.

Rink said she felt her expe-rience in assisted living facili-ties made her a strong candi-date. And, because of it, she has a lot of knowledge with how the operations work.

“I know the facility, the state regulations, the family members, the residents and how assisted living works,” Rink said.

Rink has been working to-ward her Bachelor of Science in nursing degree through an online program offered by Clarkson College in Omaha, Neb., however, she is now considering changing her fo-cus to health care leadership and business administration.

The roll of executive direc-

tor wasn’t something Rink was considering when she heard Bonebrake was leav-ing.

But, after administrators expressed interest in Rink, she gave it some thought and applied.

“I am so excited to be the new director and really enjoy it,” Rink said.

Rink said she is looking forward to continued com-munity partnerships and fos-tering new relationships with businesses and professionals in the area.

“I will strive to maintain the great reputation we have had and continue giving great quality care,” Rink said.

Rink is married to Mark Rink and is the mother of Brittney Rink, 11, and Con-ner Rink, 10.

NEW NAME:

U.S. home prices rose at slower pace in July

WASHINGTON (AP) — U.S. home prices rose in July but at a slower rate compared with earlier this year. The moderating price increases could help support sales.

Real estate data provider CoreLogic said Tuesday that prices rose 7.4 percent in July from July 2013. That was slightly below June’s year-over-year increase of 7.5 percent and far below a recent peak of 11.9 percent in February.

Prices rose 1.2 percent in July from June. But Core-Logic’s monthly figures aren’t adjusted for seasonal-ity, such as increased buying that occurs in warm weath-er.

The smaller price gains should make homes more affordable. The average 30-year fixed mortgage rate

was 4.1 percent last week, the lowest in a year. And the number of available homes rose 3.5 percent in July to the most in nearly two years.

Greater affordability has helped housing recover over the spring and summer af-ter sales and construction fell earlier this year. Sales of existing homes rose for a fourth straight month in July to their strongest pace in nine months. And a mea-sure of signed contracts also increased in July, suggesting that final sales will rise fur-ther in coming months.

Home prices rose in 49 states in July from the pre-vious year but fell in Arkan-sas, CoreLogic said.

Housing helped boost the economy in the April-June quarter, when growth reached an annual rate of 4.2 percent.

Police Storm Julian Spencer, 20,

404 N. Birch St., was charged with public intoxication and disorderly conduct 7:59 p.m. Friday at 410 S. Walnut St.

According to a Creston Po-lice report, officers responded to 410 S. Walnut St., for a phys-ical fight in progress. Upon ar-rival, officers observed Spen-cer physically fighting other family members. Members of the family said Spencer had been acting physically aggres-sive toward his father and 17-year-old cousin. Spencer appeared to be in an intoxicat-ed state, and was warned if he tried to leave the property he would be charged with pub-lic intoxication. Spencer was offered a ride home but he refused. Spencer was charged the moment he began walking down an alley.

Spencer was released on promise to appear.

— — — — — —James Orville Conley, 48,

410 S. Walnut St., was charged with second-offense operating while intoxicated 10:50 p.m. Friday at 600 Sheldon St.

According to a Creston Po-lice report, officers made a traffic stop 10:27 p.m. on a red Chevrolet Yukon. Officers approached the driver’s side of the vehicle and were able to identify the driver by Iowa identification as Conley. Con-ley made statements he had been drinking, and did have an odor of an alcoholic bever-age coming from his person. Conley said he had a few beers to drink, and officers observed slurred speech from him. Offi-

cers asked Conley to sit in the passenger side of the patrol car while running his information. In the car, officers could still smell the odor of an alcoholic beverage coming from his per-son. He made statements about being intoxicated, and he would just walk home and officers wouldn’t see him for the rest of the night. Conley consented to standard field sobriety test-ing, in which several indicators were seen. Officers then asked Conley to take a preliminary breath test, which he consented to, and gave a breath sample above the .08 standard. Conley was charged. Upon arrival to Union County Law Enforce-ment Center, Conley was read the implied consent advisory and was allowed to make sev-eral phone calls. Conley con-sented to Data Master testing, providing a breath sample above the .08 standard.

Conley was released on $2,000 bond.

18, 608 N. Birch St., was charged with interference with official acts 2:07 a.m. Sunday at 311 S. Elm St.

According to a Creston Po-lice report, officers responded to a call 1:42 a.m. regarding underage drinking at the resi-dence of 311 S. Elm St. Upon arrival, a male subject sitting on the front porch saw the marked patrol car pull up to the front of the house. The male took off running toward the back of the house, and of-ficers ran after him, telling him to stop. Officers got the flash-light beam on the male, and he finally stopped in the back alley behind the residence. Of-ficers asked for identification, and the male said he didn’t have identification, and was reluctant to give officers a name. The male subject asked why he should give his infor-

mation, and officers said it was because he ran from a marked patrol car and uniformed of-ficers. The male was identified as Meggison by name and date of birth. Meggison was very uncooperative with officers.

Meggison was released on $300 bond.

HOLLYWOOD--Happy Tues-day, everybody, and God Bless America.

Tiger Woods and Bill Clinton were guests of honor in Boston Thursday at a dinner before the Deutsche Bank Golf Champion-ship pro-am charity. It’s only right this charity is supported by Tiger and Bill. All proceeds from the tournament go to the Boys Will Be Boys Club of America.

Hollywood royalty Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie were mar-ried on Thursday in a ceremony in their chatueau in the South of France. The pictures were spec-tacular. Over one hundred guests attended the service representing twenty-nine countries and that was just their children.

Hurricane Marie hit Mexico and hurled big waves onto California beaches Friday. Surfers braved the riptides to ride the waves. Surfing legend Laird Hamilton rescued a boy from drowning on Friday and immediately afterwards he was of-fered a spot on the USC football team.

The Los Angeles Country Club was asked by the USGA to host the U.S. Open in ten years. It’s very restricted. One famous club guest who posed a problem was Senator Barry Goldwater, whose father was Jewish but his mother Episcopalian, so they allowed him to play the front nine.

President Obama attended fun-draisers in Manhattan and Rhode Island over the weekend and spent Monday in Westchester at a Labor Day picnic. It used to be a day of

working class parades. Today La-bor Day is a day when Americans take three days off from being un-employed.

An Arizona nine-year-old girl killed a gun instructor teaching her how to fire an Uzi. This on top of police shootings, school shoot-ings, Chicago, hunting season and Raiders games. The difference between ISIS and Mexico is that the Mexicans have the courage to invade this country.

President Obama said Thurs-day he has no strategy to deal with ISIS, which alarmed security ex-perts. His mood was jaunty. When reporters asked Mr. Obama to discuss the subject of the behead-ings, he said he will be heading for the golf course right after the press conference.

President Obama wore a light summer suit on Thursday for tell-ing the world he has no strategy now for battling ISIS. It doesn’t frighten the evildoers. To show how presidents stick together, George W. Bush phoned and of-fered to paint all of President Obama’s light suits gray.

Prime Minister David Camer-on cut off his vacation early and raised Britain’s threat level due to ISIS Friday. And he wore a dark suit for the announcement. Now

that we know we can elect presi-dents who weren’t born in the United States he is leading in New Hampshire and Iowa.

ISIS leader Abu Bakr al-Bagh-dadi declared himself sent from God to establish the world caliph-ate Friday. He aired video of ISIS officers interrogating Western prisoners by waterboarding them. History will mark this video as the day the Ice Bucket Challenges went too far.

Russia insisted that Russian troops had not invaded Ukraine Friday and Russian troops seen in Ukraine simply got lost on a beach vacation. They fear no backlash from Europe. The Russians are betting everything that the third time’s the charm is not an expres-sion in Germany.

Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones told ESPN he’s mad at him-self for not drafting Johnny Man-ziel. He’s tired of paying good citizens to miss the playoffs. It just dawned on him that he’d make a lot more money off a SuperBowl win than it’d cost him to send Johnny Football to rehab every March.

The NFL announced a six-game suspension without pay on players for spousal battery and a one-year suspension without pay for a sec-ond offense. Some women worry that a league penalty will result in fewer reportings from women who don’t want to lose their rich lifestyle. Last night Ray Rice drove his Escalade into a tree, but the Escalade took him back this morning.

I thought I heard Buddy Bolden NEW ORLEANS — Rain in

New Orleans is different somehow than in other cities. Maybe it’s the year-long green of the magnolia and live oaks, their leaves polished to a spit-shine by a shower.

Or, perhaps it’s because of the ubiquitous music. Whether it’s a cooling sprinkle or a summer squall, rain blends with the won-derful sounds from open doorways and blasting boom boxes.

Rain here has rhythm.My friend John and I set out in

one of those atmospheric, rhythmic rains to see Holt Cemetery, a pot-ter’s field near City Park that’s due to get a $450,000 renovation. On the day we visit, big lights already are being added, but so far any-thing new and expensive looks out of place in the overgrown, hectic field of bones and boxes.

This cemetery, established 1879,

was and is for the burial of the poor, mostly African-American citizens who don’t have anywhere else to spend eternity. Instead of the customary New Orleans above-ground tombs, most of these are in the ground. At least they were at first.

The dearly departed are buried in wooden caskets that rot over time, allowing families, if they wish, to reuse plots for generations. Many of the markers are hand-built with phonetic spelling.

People are gone, but not “fur-gotun.” Somehow the sincerity is

greater than in the most pristine perpetual care plots. More hand-written and hands-on.

There is a touching aspect to the haphazard array of graves in tall grass. In the (until recently) un-kempt cemetery is ample evidence of routine visitors — toys, flowers, rocks and shells. You can’t walk far without stumbling across physi-cal reminders that the dead here, though mostly poor, are loved be-yond life.

John wants to show me the mon-uments for Charles Joseph “Bud-dy” Bolden. Bolden was the great cornetist who many say blew New Orleans’ various musical forms from the past into the future, a blend eventually called jazz.

Bolden died in 1931 and was bur-ied in Holt, but nobody knows ex-actly where that grave is. Still, mu-sicians make pilgrimages, looking

for inspiration and paying respects.“The blowingest man since Gabri-el,” Jelly Roll Morton said of Bold-en. That’s quoted on one monu-ment, the one thought to be near where Bolden was buried.

Across the way is the tomb of Jessie Hill, who died in 1996. If you don’t know the name, you might remember his classic: “Oooh Poo Pah Doo.” “And I won’t stop tryin’ ‘til I create a disturbance in your mind. ...”

An empty bottle of gin and some red, white and blue jetsam from July Fourth indicated recent visi-tors. Hill’s grandsons also are mu-sicians, including Troy “Trombone Shorty” Andrews, still making this great old city rock.

A popular city singer called Lips — of the rock-and-roll band Lips and the Trips — says she first vis-ited Holt Cemetery on a Bike Pub

Crawl. “I’d always wanted to go there; Patti Smith announced one night at Tipitina’s that she went to see Buddy Bolden’s gravesite.” Or where it might have been.

And so they come, despite — or maybe partly because — the ghosts making music here no longer care about municipal regret, or socio-economic standing, or weeds that reach your knees. They are jam-ming in a Better Place, still creating disturbances in our mind.

OPINIONOPINION

Wednesday, Sept. 3, 2014ARIES (March 21 to April 19)

You have ideas about how to make reforms at work today. If people are slow to climb on board, wait until tomorrow to make your pitch; your chances for success will be better.

TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) This is a productive day for those involved in creative proj-ects, working with children or working in the entertainment world or the hospitality indus-try. Trust your impulses.

GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) Family conversations will be intense today because people think they know best. Furthermore, everyone has a strong impulse to improve someone else. (Yikes!)

CANCER (June 21 to July 22) You are convincing today. Not only are you empowered in your conversations with oth-ers, you also want to get to the bottom of something.

LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) You might see new ways to make money or get a better job. If you’re going to act or initi-ate something new, wait until tomorrow to begin.

VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) Take a real-istic look in the mir-ror and ask yourself how you can improve

your image. Appearances count. (You never get a second chance to make a first impres-sion.)

LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) Your ability to research any-thing or dig deep for hidden answers is great today. Roll up your sleeves and start looking, because you will be imagina-tive as well as diligent.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) You might attract some-one powerful to you today, or perhaps someone sees you in a powerful light. (This is more likely.) Keep an open mind to see if you can learn something.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) Conversations with people in authority will be direct and powerful today, because people will not hesi-tate to say what they want. Nevertheless, tomorrow is a better day to initiate something new.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) You will love exploring new ideas related to philosophy, foreign cultures, medicine, the law, religion and politics. You want to grasp the bottom line about something.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18) You might see new ways to improve your debt or improve your relationship with some-one with whom you share something. After all, there’s always room for improvement in almost every situation, right?

PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20) A frank discussion with a friend or partner might result in an improved relationship. Who knows? Treat others the way you hope they will treat you.

YOU BORN TODAY You are not always what you seem;

in fact, others are sometimes confused about who you really are. You are multitalented and patient, but you will not be pushed around. You often are ahead of your time. This is a year of growth and testing. You might build or construct something this year. Do not make major changes — not yet.

Dear Readers: I have writ-ten about this Heloise travel hint before, but it’s time to mention it again. When stay-ing in a hotel (especially for several nights) and using daily housekeeping service, it is nice to LEAVE A TIP. Be sure to leave a note with the tip so it goes to the right person. I usually write “For Housekeeping” and place it on a pillow, or sometimes on the dresser. This makes it clear that the money is for them. If I see the housekeep-er with her cart on the floor, I try to say that there is some-thing for her in my room.

Also, if you are there for several days, ask if the same person will be working when you leave. If you wait to tip until the end of your stay, it may be a different person from the one who has been taking care of your room.

Usually, I don’t use house-keeping, because I have enough towels. I sort of throw the covers up over the pillows and put my trash in the trash can. If extra shampoo or lo-tion is needed, I simply ask housekeeping to bring me a few, or I stop and ask the per-son at the housekeeping cart when she is on the floor. — Heloise

RINSE AGENTDear Heloise: What exactly

is the reason for using a rinse agent when washing dishes in the dishwasher? — Eddie W. in Kentucky

The rinse agent makes wa-ter slide off the items you are washing so glasses and dishes have fewer, if any, water spots or film on them when dry. This is particularly important if you live in an area with hard water, like we do here in San Antonio! — Heloise

SWEETER SMELLDear Heloise: With our

kids involved in sports and dance, gym bags and dance bags are a part of life in our home. They can get foul-smelling quickly. To cut down on the odor, each week I take used dryer sheets (that have been through the dryer once) and throw one in the bottom of each bag. Keeps odors down between washings! — Jennifer T. in Colorado

PET-OWNEDDear Heloise: Silly us — we

started our puppies out sleep-ing in our king-size bed with us. Now, two of them are big dogs. The dogs sleep soundly, making it difficult to adjust the blankets once they’re asleep.

I finally came up with a solution that works for all of us. I use the sheet set as nor-mal, but I use two king-size blankets. I fold each blanket lengthwise, overlap them slightly down the center of the bed, and then tuck them in at the foot. Each human has ample blanket that he or she can control, and there is no more tug of war. — Ann Moss, via email

TACO HOLDERDear Heloise: When I

make tacos, I use a coffee filter to hold them. It really saves on the mess. — Patricia S. in North Dakota

Send a money-saving or timesaving hint to Heloise, P.O. Box 795000, San Anto-nio, TX 78279-5000, or you can fax it to 1-210-HELOISE or email it to [email protected]. I can’t answer your letter personally but will use the best hints received in my column.

NatioNalDigest

The Numbers Game

No-hitterATLANTA — On La-

bor Day, Cole Hamels and the Philadelphia bullpen spread the workload on a no-hitter.

Hamels and three Phil-lies relievers combined on the season’s fourth no-hit-ter, blanking the Atlanta Braves 7-0 Monday and giving a last-place team a rare reason to celebrate.

It was all the more un-usual in that Hamels left the game with his bid in-tact after six innings. He was fine with the deci-sion, too, having already thrown 108 pitches at a hot afternoon at Turner Field.

Hamels (8-6) struck out seven, matched a season high with five walks and hit a batter.

Relievers Jake Diek-man, Ken Giles and Jon-athan Papelbon each pitched a perfect inning to close out the 11th combined no-hitter in big league history. A smiling Hamels watched from the bench as they finished off what he started.Cards win

LOUISVILLE, Ky. — Dominique Brown’s 15-yard touchdown run in the third quarter and Ger-ald Christian’s 10-yard TD catch late in the fourth backed Louisville’s big defensive performance that helped beat Miami 31-13 Monday night.

The victory provided a successful Atlantic Coast Conference debut for the Cardinals and to Bobby Petrino’s second coaching stint at the school.

Despite the 18-point margin, Louisville showed little of the offensive ef-ficiency expected in Petrino’s return as the Cardinals outgained the Hurricanes 336-244 in a ragged game offensively for both teams. Louis-ville’s new 3-4 defense provided the saving grace with three takeaways, in-cluding one that followed a costly fumble by Car-dinals quarterback Will Gardner inside his 15.

After Louisville held Miami to a field goal fol-lowing Gardner’s sec-ond fumble in the third quarter, Brown’s TD provided a 21-13 cushion. Christian’s scoring pass from Gardner with 1:43 remaining sealed the win.

Corvin Lamb’s 97-yard kickoff return for a TD just before halftime pro-vided the go-ahead score for Louisville, which had to withstand several Mi-ami threats from there for a win that wasn’t decided until late.Carr starts

OAKLAND, Ca-lif. — The Oakland Raiders have named rookie Derek Carr their starting quarterback, the team’s 18th different starting signal caller since 2003.

Carr will get the nod over veteran Matt Schaub, who is playing his first season in Oakland after spending the past seven seasons starting for the Houston Texans.

Carr, a second-round pick from Fresno State, completed of 11 of 13 passes for 143 yards and three touchdowns, includ-ing two one-play touch-down passes in a 41-31 win over the Seattle Se-ahawks in the preseason finale for both.

It was worth the wait.The Creston/O-M Pan-

thers got off to a 13-0 lead in defeating Norwalk 27-17 Friday night at Panther Field.

The game was delayed 45 minutes prior to kickoff because of lightning in the area, and it did not end un-til 11:10 p.m. Intermittent rain showers fell during the game and made for some treacherous field conditions.

The freshman game was not held Friday. It was post-poned until Monday at Nor-walk, prior to the junior var-sity game. Norwalk won the freshman game, 54-7, and scored late to seal a 23-12 JV victory. (See full reports in Wednesday’s News Ad-vertiser.)

The first half was a de-fensive standoff, and Nor-walk actually posed the first scoring threat in the second quarter. The Warriors drove 47 yards on 13 plays to the Panther 33 yard line. Nor-walk placekicker Karson Olerich, who had a 48-yard field goal last year, tried a 50-yarder that fell short.First TD

Groumoutis alone over the middle for a touchdown pass with 3:35 left in the first half. Nielsen dropped the shot-gun snap on the turf, but it bounced back into his hands and he was able to complete the play.

“When the play breaks down, you just have to stay calm,” Nielsen said. “I’m

supposed to ride the back and kind of wait it out. It’s a post-wheel (route), kind of a long developing play any-way. He was wide open.”

Groumoutis didn’t even realize his quarterback had dropped the snap. He just knew the ball was coming to him over his left shoulder, perfectly in stride as he got

behind the Warrior second-ary.

“McClain (Haines) runs a corner, and I’m supposed to go right off his butt and run a post,” Groumoutis explained. “The corner and safety both followed Mc-Clain, and I was wide open over the middle. It saw it coming and I knew I was go-

ing to score.”With two minutes left in

the half, linebacker Alex Tamerius recovered a fumbled Norwalk pitchout, giving the Panthers posses-sion again. A quick drive covered 59 yards, with Seth Maitlen carrying on the final two plays for 28 yards and 1 yard. A fumbled snap on the extra point left the score 13-0 in Creston/O-M’s favor at halftime.

Four different backs car-ried the ball for the Panthers in the game, but the “Jum-bo” formation during that drive featuring Maitlen was an effective changeup. The powerful 225-pound junior is in contrast to the shifty running style of tailbacks Conner Pals and Chase Shiltz.

“It’s like a power play if we need short yards,” said Maitlen, who played guard last year. “ T a m e r -ius is a back with me and J o r d a n (Thomp-son) is at tight end. It’s tough to stop.”

It didn’t take long for Norwalk to change the mo-mentum after the second-half kickoff, however.

Fueled by Luke Greenslade’s kickoff return to the Panther 40-yard line, the Warriors mounted a touchdown drive on the first

Lenox tops East Union in weather-shortened gameBy SCOTT VICKERCNA sports editor • [email protected]

AFTON — “It was a weird ballgame. It was just really weird.”

That’s how Lenox head coach Allen Dukes de-scribed his team’s 36-32 win over East Union in “mon-soon” conditions on Friday night.

When Dukes and the Ti-gers left the field Friday night, he didn’t think his team would be granted a win, as the two teams were called off the field with 5:23 left in the game because of lightning.

Lenox had bolted to a 22-6 lead in the second quarter before a 45-minute weather delay and led 36-14 at halftime.

But the Eagles scored 18 unanswered points in the third quarter to cut the lead to 36-32.

Neither team scored in the 6:37 of the fourth quar-ter that was played.

“When the officials stopped the game, it was sus-pended,” Dukes said. “I see

on the standings, they gave us a win and them a loss. Yeah, it’s nice, but that’s not the way we wanted it to be done. I’m under the impres-sion the state made the deci-sion that it was a game with how much we had played.”

Lenox scored on its first possession of the game when Carson Cline connected with Josh Mitchell for a 30-yard score. Cline added two more passing touchdowns in the first half — one to Jared Hensley and the other to Dustyn Rauch.

Rauch added two rush-ing touch-downs in the first half, as L e n o x built its 36-14 lead. Rauch fin-ished with 96 yards on 22 car-ries. Cline finished 8-of-16 passing for 122 yards.

“That first go around, before the delay, we were able to get to the outside on them,” Dukes said. “We ran our option play and ran

it well. Dustyn ran it really well.”

But halftime adjustments shifted the momentum in East Union’s favor.

“I felt like we came out and played a sluggish first half,” East Union co-coach James Hardy said. “Came back out and got our offense going. We ended up not fin-ishing it, but the momentum was ours in the second half.”

Cole Campbell connected with Brandon Hulsey for a pair of long touchdowns in the second half and Jona-than Weis added a 67-yard touchdown run to draw the Eagles to within 36-32 at the end of the third quarter.

Campbell finished 3-of-6 passing for 166 yards, with all three pass-es going to H u l s e y . D e f e n -s i v e l y , Campbell recorded nine total tackles and two

Area footballAlbia 39,Mount Ayr 8

ALBIA — Mount Ayr wanted a challenge in its season opener, and that’s exactly what Class 2A No. 4 Albia gave the Class A 10th-ranked Raiders here on Fri-dady in a 39-8 win.

The Raiders turned the ball over seven times in the contest, leaving the defense in poor position several times.

“Our defense was on the field an awful lot,” Mount Ayr co-coach Delwyn Show-alter said. “On a hot, humid night, that’s tough. When you’re going against guys as big and strong as they are, that’s tough. We certainly put ourselves in some bad situations, but on the other hand, we were able to force some turnovers.”

Mount Ayr forced four Albia turnovers, but didn’t convert those turnovers into points the same way Albia did.

Jacob Taylor, in his first start at quarterback, scored Mount Ayr’s lone touch-down in the third quarter on a 1-yard run.

The Raiders outgained Albia 93-10 through the air, but thanks to Carter Isley’s 197 yards on the ground, the Blue Demons outgained Mount Ayr 347-68 on the ground.

“Albia is a very good team,” Showalter said. “They’ve got as fine a run-ning back as we’re going to see all year.”

Riley Weehler and Joe Ricker shined on the defen-sive side of the ball for the Raiders.

Weehler recorded 18 total tackles be-fore leav-ing the game with a knee i n j u r y . Ricker re-corded 11 total tack-

les, including three tackles for loss.

The Raiders face an-other Class 2A opponent on Friday, as they travel to Shenandoah, which was a 28-7 winner over Oakland, Riverside in week one.

possession to close it to 13-7. Cory Harding scored on a 2-yard run.Defensive stand

Creston/O-M maintained that margin with a key goal line stand at the end of the third quarter and start of the fourth, as Norwalk quarter-back Brady Brandsfield was stuffed on a fourth-and-goal from the 1-yard line. The Warriors had first down at the 5-yard line, but were de-nied on each attempt, all on the ground.

“For me personally, that was one of my favorite things of the night,” said Maitlen, who collected a team-high 17 tackles, includ-ing five solo stops. “They started out inside our five, we were able to stop them.”

However, Panther quar-terback Alex Nielsen was tackled in the end zone on the next play, closing the margin to 13-9.

Then came what might have been the game-saving play, considering the cir-cumstances.

As Norwalk was driving for the go-ahead touch-down, Panther defensive back Tyson Tucker stepped in front of Greenslade for an interception, setting up Nielsen for a 70-yard run on a keeper. That made it 20-9 with 7:07 left in the game.

“I read that he was going to the post and just stepped in front of it,” Tucker said. “I don’t know how many times it took me to catch that ball. I bobbled it about

three times, I think. Then Nielsen made a heck of a play on the next one.”Breakaway run

Nielsen’s quarterback keeper was set up perfectly on the right side. He only had to high-step and shuck one would-be defender on his way to the 70-yard TD. It helped him become the team’s rushing leader for the day with 103 yards on seven carries.

“I have to be patient on that play and let it develop,” Nielsen related. “I ride the back for a second and wait for the hole to open up. I saw a huge hole.”

Nielsen also completed 8-of-15 passes for 92 yards without any interceptions.

“I think we showed what we could do,” Nielsen said. “We just have to cut down on the penalties and a few mental mistakes.”

An interference penalty against Creston/O-M on fourth-and-11 gave Norwalk new life on its next drive, and Brandsfield then found Justin South for a 39-yard touchdown. A two-point conversion pass shaved the Panthers’ lead to 20-17.

Creston/O-M responded with an 80-yard scoring drive to go ahead by two scores. Nielsen found Mc-Clain Haines open on an out route to the left for a 17-yard touchdown, with Pals’ kick making it 27-17 with 2:02 left in the game.

“We ran a stack,” Haines said. “I run a corner on that play. I saw they were in cov-er one. I looked at Alex and

I was like, we’re going to score right here. I couldn’t ask for a better ball. He put it right on the money.”

Creston/O-M edged Nor-walk in total offense, 338 yards to 332. But, the Pan-thers were flagged 14 times for 155 yards, while Norwalk was assessed 14 violations for 110 yards, which partially ex-plains the late conclusion of the contest.

Norwalk drove into

Creston/O-M territory, but on a pass that went through South’s grasp, Haines was on the scene for the team’s sec-ond interception of the night.

Brandsfield was Norwalk’s leading rusher with 71 yards on 19 carries. He was 18-of-39 passing for 204 yards and two interceptions.

A coverage breakdown led to Brandfield’s TD pass, and the penalties extended some Warrior drives. But overall,

the Panthers contained a dan-gerous Norwalk offense.

“We left some points out on the field and we had mis-takes that sustained their drives,” head coach Brian Morrison said, “but overall our kids competed at a high level. That’s a good foot-ball program. We knew they

would come in with good skill kids and play physical foot-ball. Our kids fought through things in the fourth quarter and got the win.”

The Panthers travel to Clarinda for the second non-district game next Friday. The improved Cardinals raced past Atlantic Friday, 60-14.

162 yards and one touchdown on 20 car-ries, while Tyler Bis-sell and C h a n c e Cobb each punched in two scores on the ground.

“We had a really good night,” Casagrande said. “I was really happy with the execution on offense. I thought we moved the ball really well. Defensively, we made a ton of improvement from what we showed at Clarinda in our scrimmage.”

Casagrande said the play of the offensive line was key in getting the running game going.

Cobb, the freshman quar-t e r b a c k had an e f f i c i e n t g a m e , c o m p l e t -ing 7 of 8 passes for 23 yards. His lone incomple-tion was an interception.

“He really did a good job,” Casagrande said. “He did a couple of things, where one time he scooped hte ball off the ground on a bad snap in shotgun and we ended up getting 5 yards on the play instead of losing 5 yards. He did a lot of little things like that throughout the night.”

Defensively, junior Tony Klocke led the way for the Timberwolves with eight total tackles. Senior Ryan Carlson added seven total stops. Tyler Means, Sammy Ritchie and Jerad Shires

each recorded one sack.Southwest Valley 40,

Mormon Trail 34, Murray 0

HUMESTON — It’s a new Murray team with first-year starters at every position, so Friday’s opener was a learning experience as Mormon Trail posted a 34-0 victory.

Coach Taylor Fulton said field conditions played a big factor after torrential rains in the days leading up to the game. The Mustangs were hampered by eight turnovers, and fell short of the goal line despite several trips into the red zone.

Jack Jones, one of five s o p h o -m o r e s t a r t e r s , led Mur-ray with 47 yards rush-ing on 12 carries. He also had

38 yards receiving on two catches from quarterback Thane Simmons.

On defense, Jones had 17 tackles and two fumble re-coveries. Sophomore Josh-ua Barber had 12 tackles at middle linebacker. Mason Simmons and Dustin Teas each had 10 tackles.

“The team played very well despite the final out-come,” Fulton said. “I be-lieve that this is a game that we can build from as it will serve as motivation to ste the tone for the sea-son in the coming weeks. We were able to move the ball and played some great defense as a team. having such a young team — eight sophomores played in large roles — playing a very tough schedule will be very benefi-cial to these players as they continue to grow into their roles.”

This week the Mustangs play host to Wayne and preseason all-state running back Clayton Kiefer to fin-ish the non-district part of the season. Kickoff is 7 p.m.Central Decatur 33, Nodaway Valley 12

After inconsistent NASCAR season, Kahne finds new hope with Atlanta By JIM UTTER The Charlotte Observer

HAMPTON, Ga. — Win and you’re in.

NASCAR’s new Chase format sounds simple enough.

Well, Kasey Kahne finally won, and he hopes he’s far from done.

Kahne powered around Matt Kenseth in the second t w o - l a p overt ime to win S u n d a y n i g h t ’ s O r a l - B 500 at At-lanta Mo-tor Speed-way and clinch a spot in the champi-onship Chase with his first Sprint Cup Series victory of the season.

“I just kept saying, ‘I have to win. I have to win Sunday night.’ That was, it was all that I could think about,” said Kahne, who earned the 17th win of his career.

“I knew Atlanta was a bet-ter opportunity for myself to win at than (next week-end’s race at) Richmond. I feel better here than I do at Richmond.”

Kahne and his No. 5 Hen-drick Motorsports team

have been widely inconsis-tent this season, and without a victory it looked as if they would sit out this season’s battle for the series champi-onship.

Kahne appeared to be the odd man out at Hendrick as his three teammates — Jeff Gordon, Jimmie Johnson and Dale Earnhardt Jr. — each has three wins so far and were Chase locks.

“When I came off Turn 4 and I could see the check-ered (flag). Right there is the first time I knew I was in the Chase, and it’s such a relief,” he said. “I have the best teammates, and Mr. (Rick) Hendrick gives us everything that we need.

“Up until now we weren’t going to be in the Chase, and that hurt.”

Both Kahne and his crew chief, Kenny Francis, hope Sunday night’s win presses a restart button of sorts on their season.

“As s a team, we put it to-gether tonight,” Kahne said. “We can just build off of it. Hopefully, we can build some confidence, some mo-mentum, and go into Rich-mond and even get better.”

Francis was happy just to catch a break.

“It’s been a rough year for us, as we all know,” he said.

“We have had a lot of good cars and just seems like nothing goes our way.

“We have been working hard, just we have been kind of under the limelight. So, finally we broke free.”

Kevin Harvick dominated most of the race, leading a race-high 195 of the 335 laps, but Kahne took the lead for the first time on a late restart on Lap 303.

He did a surprisingly good job at keeping Har-vick at bay and appeared to have the race won until with two laps remaining when a wreck between Kyle Busch and Martin Truex Jr. brought out a caution and sent the race into a two-lap overtime.

Another wreck on the re-start forced a second over-time, and Matt Kenseth led on the restart. Kahne made short work of Kenseth and his Joe Gibbs Racing team-mate Denny Hamlin to take the lead and earn the win.

“Kasey did a heck of a job on the last restart when he went through the middle,” team owner Rick Hendrick said. “He started fifth and went through the middle. That was a race-winning move.”

Hamlin finished third, Jimmie Johnson fourth and

Carl Edwards fifth. Gordon continues to lead the series standings with a 21-point advantage over second-place Earnhardt.

Tony Stewart appeared in his first race since his in-volvement in an Aug. 9 in-cident at a New York dirt track that left driver Kevin Ward Jr. dead.

Stewart started 12th and ran in the t o p - f i v e before he was in-volved in two acci-dents, the second of which sent him to the garage after 170 laps.

“Not the end of the day that we wanted,” said Stew-art’s crew chief, Chad John-ston. “We thought we had a shot at winning and with two races to go to get into the Chase this was one of the two chances obviously left to get it done.

“We will just have to lick our wounds and go on to Richmond.”

ACS rained out again CORNING — Condi-

tions were too wet to race again Saturday at the Ad-ams County Speedway.

Unrelenting rains all week long left the facil-ity too muddy to race, but ACS officials have made a few changes so that, hope-fully, there will be some SLMR action in Corning yet this summer.

The SLMR Late Mod-els have been rescheduled

to Saturday, Sept. 6. The purse of $2,000 to win R&S Auto Championship Night has been moved to Saturday, Sept. 13.

Due to the cancellation of the Tiny Lund Memori-al race in Harlan, the date is now open and will be a NASCAR point night. The 17th Annual NAPA Tradition will end the sea-son on Sept. 20.

Insurance Companies Legally Rip-Off Iowa

Injured Workers By . . .

Yes, insurance companies can legally pay you less that what you are owed and do not have to tell you the truth. Many injured workers fail to learn the Injured Workers Bill

of Rights which includes: 1. Payment of Mileage at $.56 per mile 2. Money for Permanent Disability 3. 2nd Medical Opinion in Admitted Claims. . . . A New Book reveals your other rights and much more so you do not get ripped-off. Iowa Work Injury Attorney Corey Walker offers his book at no cost because since 1997, he has seen far too many hard working Iowans who did not know their rights treated badly by insurance companies. If you or a loved one have been hurt at work and do not have an attorney claim your copy (while supplies last). Call Now (800)-707-2552, ext. 311 (24 Hour Recording) or go to www.IowaWorkInjury.com. Our Guarantee- If you do not learn at least one thing from our book call us and we will donate $1,000 to your charity of choice.

Stewart says Ward’s death will affect him forever

HAMPTON, Ga. (AP) — Unshaven and with a quiver-ing voice, NASCAR s u p e r -star Tony S t e w a r t said the death of Kevin Ward Jr. will “affect my life forever” as he re-turned to the track Friday for the first time since his car struck and killed the fellow driver during a sprint race in New York three weeks ago.

Stewart read from a state-ment that, his team said, he wrote himself. He spoke just under 2 1/2 minutes, paus-ing several times to compose himself. He took no ques-tions about the incident that it still being investigated by law enforcement officials.

“This has been one of the toughest tragedies I’ve ever had to deal with, both pro-fessionally and personally,” Stewart said in a packed media room on the infield at Atlanta Motor Speedway. “This is a sadness and a pain I hope no one has to experi-ence in their life. That being said, I know that the pain and mourning that Kevin Ward’s family and friends are experiencing is some-thing that I can’t possibly imagine.”

He mentioned Ward’s parents and three sisters by name, saying he wanted them “to know that every day I’m thinking about them and praying for them.”

The brief news conference presented a much differ-ent side to the brash driver known as “Smoke,” whose explosive temper has led to

clashes with the media and fellow drivers. Wearing a black polo shirt and blue jeans, Stewart delivered his 285-word statement in a quivering tone, his eyes moist.

He skipped three races af-ter Ward’s death, going into seclusion at his rural Indiana home. Stewart’s team said he needed time to grieve, and some questioned if he felt guilt over the crash.

During an Aug. 9 sprint-car event in upstate New York, Stewart and Ward’s cars appeared to bump while racing into a turn, sending Ward’s car spinning. The 20-year-old Ward climbed from his wrecked machine and wandered onto a dark-ened track in a black racing suit, apparently wanting to make his displeasure known to the three-time NASCAR champion. One car ap-peared to swerve to avoid Ward, but he was struck by the back right tire of Stew-art’s car.

“I’ve taken the last couple of weeks off out of respect for Kevin and his family and also to cope with the accident in my own way,” Stewart said. “It’s given me the time to think about life and how easy it is to take it for granted. I miss my team, my teammates and I miss being back in the race car, and I think being back in the car this week with my rac-ing family will help me get through this difficult time.”

The 43-year-old Stewart pulled out of the race at nearby Watkins Glen the morning after Ward was killed, and then skipped events at Michigan and Bris-tol.
