Garnett man brought terror
to the big screen in wax
1933 horror film featured the
creations of a GHS graduate
who sculpted for Hollywood
BY DANE HICKS
LOS ANGELES, Calif. He was one of a
mere handful of graduates of the Garnett High
School class of 1903, but his talent as a sculptor
and his yen for servicing the high-end retail
store window displays of Los Angeles and the
West Coast eventually launched him into one
of the most recognizable Hollywood movie
franchises of films most grand era.
The story of Garnetts Lee Oates (pronounced Otis) and his unique vocation
making wax figures for department store fashion displays hit the Garnett newspaper with
a hometown-boy-done-good item back in 1932.
The piece was published just months before
the 1933 release of The Mystery of the Wax
Museum and its international showcase of
Oates macabre and amazingly detailed wax
creations for what became a Hollywood classic.
The movie itself was no major hit at the time,
but it was Faye Wrays last eye candy, queenof-scream role before the 1933 release of King
Kong, which made her a household name.
Other stars included Lionel Atwill, Glenda
Farrell and Frank McHugh. The original film
prints and negatives, shot in what was at the
time brand new two-negative Technicolor process, would even become lost in the mid-1940s
before being rediscovered in the private collection of Jack Warner of Warner Bros. fame.
L.E. Oates, of Los Angeles, Caif., is a famed
artist in wax, says The Garnett Review of
December 15, 1932, having completed one of
the largest commissions on record, reproducing in almost absolute likenesses the features
of famous figures in history.
Lee Oates is a former Garnett boy, a son
of Mr. and Mrs. J.M. Oates, who lived south
of Garnett near Crystal Lake, the paper says.
Shortly after his graduation from the Garnett
High School in 1903, he left here, taking up the
work of modeling wax figures for window displays.
Tracking down Lee Oates and finding his
granddaughter, Karen Kiefer, now living in
Grand Junction, Colo., to round out his story
wasnt easy. An internet search eventually
yielded Oates connection to the movie via
the IMdb website (Internet Movie Database).
We discovered his place of death in Marin
County, Calif., in 1953 and found 1950 census
records for that county that listed some family
members. MyHeritage.com genealogy website
yielded other descendants, and allowed us to
fill in a a gap Kiefer had wondered about.
We knew he was from Kansas, but we
didnt know where, Kiefer said.
Oates spent time in Ohio where he eventually married Elizabeth Goodsill in 1916. His
mother, Isola (Farnam) Oates, passed away in
1917 and is buried in Garnett. He convinced his
father, James Mercury Oates, to join he and
Elizabeth enroute to California shortly thereafter, and as far as anyone knows the family
left Kansas forever.
Kiefer was born in 1959, the daughter of Lee
Oates younger son James, six years after her
grandfather passed away in California. She

President Joe Biden vetoed a congressional move Thursday to repeal the Waters

Findings should give
developers inkling of
ROI for local projects
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT City officials will
meet with the public tomorrow
night to review the findings of
a housing study commissioned
in recent weeks to determine
the prospects for housing
development in the local area.
The meeting will be held
at Town Hall Center at 5 p.m.
tomorrow, Wednesday, April
12, and is open to the public.
Anderson
County
Development Agency Director
Julie Turnipseed said last
week the meeting would discuss the results of a focus group
interview conducted in midMarch with a group of about
25 local residents, as well as
review a mini-market analysis
prepared by RDG Planning &
Design of Omaha, Neb., which
conducted the study.
Housing became a community focus in recent years with
criticism from some quarters
that the Garnett area lacked
quality, affordable housing.
The issues become more
defined recently with the
announcement of three major
industrial projects to be built
within commuting distance
of Garnett in the next couple
of years. Turnipseed said the
study was designed to provide factual data to be used to
attract developers interested
in pursuing housing projects
locally.

Legislature overrides Kellys

Local votes, previous

eventual rebuff
BY DANE HICKS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
TOPEKA Legislators in the
Kansas House and Senate on
Wednesday rallied to override
the governors veto of a law
banning men from competing
in womens sports in Kansas,
after a three-year battle with
Kelly and two override failures.
The issue has come to

Key to the override vote
were 9th District Republican

Garnett, who replaced a former opposition vote on previous occasions from Kent
Thompson of Iola, and 5th
District Rep Carrie Barth from
Baldwin City, who replaced
two previous opposition votes
from former representative
Mark Samsel. House members barely made the 84-vote,
two-thirds majority threshold
needed for the override, garnering only 81 votes in last

voted 28-12 for the override.

MATHERS
HIESTAND
NOVEMBER 12, 1944 – APRIL 2, 2023
Dorothy Dotty A. Mathers,
78, of North Platte, NE passed
away on Sunday, April 2, 2023,
at Azria Health Centennial
Park.
Dotty was born on November
12, 1944, at
Dr. Whites
Hospital in
Garnett, KS.
She was the
sixth of eight
children born
to Albert and
Catherine
Mathers
(Wilper)
Hermann.
Dotty grew
up in rural Westphalia, KS on
the family farm. An opinionated and outspoken thorn in
the side of her older siblings
and especially to her older
brother Frank, Dotty could
be found drawing and painting in her spare time she had.
Dotty enjoyed sewing and was
an excellent cook when her
mother needed help. Dotty
attended elementary school at
St Teresas Grade School and
graduated from Westphalia
High School with the class of
1962.
A traveler at heart, Dotty
worked in many locations
between Kansas and California
before settling in North Platte,
NE to welcome her family. She
ran a daycare for children in
her home for many years. She
was a foster mom to many children alongside her beloved son
and daughter. She was also a
home health aide for the elderly for several years, before
becoming a railway crew driver for Union Pacific Railroad
until failing health forced her
into retirement.
She was always interested in
nutrition and in practicing her
religious faith. She enjoyed
traveling to Garnett with her
son to visit family and enjoyed
reminiscing about growing up
on the farm. She will be greatly
missed by all who knew and
loved her.
She is fondly remembered
by her son, Dwane Mathers of
North Platte; daughter, Deanna
Mathers of North Platte; granddaughter, Kayla Mathers; 4
great-grandchildren; sisters,
Mary Davied of Walnut, KS,
and Sr. Alberta Hermann
OSB of Atchinson, KS; brothers, Richard and Clarence
Hermann both of Garnett, KS;
and many nieces and nephews.
She was preceded in death
by her parents, Albert and
Catherine Hermann, and
brothers, Al, Frank, and Harold
Hermann.
Memorial services will be
held at 2:00 PM on Wednesday,
April 12, 2023, at the Kingdom
Hall of Jehovahs Witness in
North Platte. Private family
graveside services will be held
at 2:00 PM on Saturday, April
15, 2023, at St. Teresa Cemetery
in Westphalia, KS. All those
who attend are welcome to
join the family in the St Teresa
Catholic Church basement following the committal service.

God
gave
Marv the sense to marry a
good woman named Trish who
would stand by him for almost
54 years, through tough times
and sad times and good ones.
God sent Marv and Trish two
fine sons who had good marrying sense also, bringing them
two beautiful, bright daughters-in-law. But life continued
to get better. These fine sons
and daughters-in-law proceeded to give them five Hollywood
good-looking grandchildren all
of whom made their PaPa pop
his buttons with pride on a
regular basis.
So, yes, my life has been happy.
And I thank God, a good wife,
fine children, and button-poppin grandchildren for that.
Marv was born September
17, 1949, in Garnett. Kansas.
He was the second of four
children born to Charlie and

We are the ones
that need to adapt!
Some 4000 years ago Job
asked a question that finds
its true answer in Easter. His
question was, If a man dies
will he live again? (Job 14:14)
We are not told in the book of
Job anything about how Jobs
relationship with God came to
pass. We are just told that Job,
was blameless and upright,
he feared God. Satan on the
other hand accused God of protecting Job from any sort of
trouble. Satan was right, God
had protected Job but not for
the reasons Satan put forth.
Jobs answer to his own question is found in Job 14:15. You
(God) will call and I will answer
you; you will long for the creature your hands have made.
Surely then you will count my
steps but not keep track of my
sins.
The Apostle Paul understood at the end of his life in
2 Timothy 4:7-8 that eternity
was a reality when he says, I
have finished the race I have
kept the faith. Now there is
in store for me the crown of
righteousness, which the Lord,
the righteous judge, will award
to me in that day- and not only
to me, but also to all who have
longed for his appearing.
The writer to the Hebrews
WEEKLY DEVOTIONAL
BY DAVID BILDERBACK
provides us a conclusion to
Jobs question and Pauls statement when he says in Hebrews
12:2, Let us fix our eyes on
Jesus, the author and perfecter
of our faith, who for the joy set
before him endured the cross,
carrying its shame, and sat
down at the right hand of the
throne of God.
Many have said Christianity
will die out if we dont adapt to
meet the felt needs of the people. For those who pursue that,
it is a slippery slope. It never
ended well when they tried to
adapt the Bible to meet their
needs in biblical times. What
they got was captivity, sickness
and death. If someone can find
the body of Jesus, Christianity
is dead because the resurrection is a hoax. Until that happens I am all in right along
with Job and Paul.
We dont rent pigs.
But we do all kinds of printing. (785) 448-3121

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW Tuesday, April 11, 2023
OPINION
NPR nailed for what it is
Recently, Twitter slapped a warning label on
all tweets from National Public Radio. Going
forward, NPR will be identified for users of
Elon Musks social media site as state-affiliated media. That is the same category as Russia
Today or China Central Television.
It means that NPR is not that different
from the Tehran Times, with the exception,
of course, of being less accurate and more
anti-American. That happened on Tuesday.
Why are we telling you about it? With all
the momentous changes underway around the
world, why would we open a show with a story
about Twitter re-categorizing NPR as state
media? Well, because its true. Thats the reason.
Finally, thankfully, somebody in authority
has told the truth about something, and that
is thrilling to see on its own terms. In a world
defined by lies from our leaders, this seemed
like a rare sign of hope and progress. Telling
the truth is the most revolutionary act of all,
far more than taking up arms, and yet you
rarely see it. Human beings created language
to describe the world around them more precisely than they could with, say, grunting or
sign language, but unfortunately have been
subverting our own creation ever since, but
not tonight. By calling National Public Radio
what it is, Elon Musk has used English as it
was intended to be used in order to tell the
truth. Of course, NPR is state media.
Have you listened to it? It has all the hallmarks: repetitive dishonesty, authoritarian
politics, unwavering devotion to the party in
charge. Of course, that could describe virtually
all media in this country. The difference is the
state actually pays for NPR. NPR was created
more than 50 years ago by a law signed by
Democrat Lyndon Johnson. It was called the
Public Broadcasting Act and from its very first
day, NPR was wholly dependent on tax dollars
in order to exist, and it still is. Federal funding is essential to NPR, explains NPRs own
website.
Every year, NPR lobbyists head to Capitol
Hill to demand more tax dollars. Democracy
cant exist without us, they screech, while
simultaneously at the very same time telling
you at high volume that NPR takes virtually
no tax money. So, we dont need federal subsidies. Dont even want them, really, but you
have to increase them. That is NPRs line
and has been for decades under the political
leadership of both parties, and its essential-
GUEST EDITORIAL
TUCKER CARLSON, FOX NEWS ANALYST
ly unchallenged by anyone. It just stays. Wars
and recessions come and go, but NPR funding
remains, but after more than half a century, it
is very clear that there is nothing public about
National Public Radio. NPR is the radio station
of permanent Washington. Thats who pays for it.
Thats who benefits from it. By adding three simple words to NPRs tweets, Elon Musk exposed
that forever to the world. Such is the power of
truth. It exposes and, of course, it infuriates those
who are exposed.
NPR howled in outrage, but with its signature
pursed-lipped fussiness. Heres a direct quote
from a piece on NPRs website, which really does
belong in the Museum of Uptight Liberalism:
NPR officials have asked Twitter to remove the
label. They initially assumed it was applied by
mistake, NPR spokesperson Isabel Lara said.
We were not warned. It happened quite suddenly last night, Lara said. In response to an
NPR email for the story seeking comment and
requesting details about what in particular might
have led to the new designation, Twitters press
account auto-replied with a poop emoji.
This is the same radio station that in the final
days of the last presidential campaign took a
look at the biggest political story in years, the
New York Post story on Bidens laptop, and then
ignored it completely and not only ignored
it completely, but because they are fussy and
self-righteous to their very core, they bragged
about how they were ignoring it completely. We
dont want to waste our time on stories that are
not really stories, said NPRs managing editor
Terence Samuel.
State-affilated media? No wonder.

Kansas House: Why no Convention of States?
I am now convinced that we have some not
very bright people from both parties in the
Kansas House of Representatives.
Thank goodness Shannon Francis
is not among them. He voted for a
Constitutional Convention of the States as
allowed by the U.S. Constitution as a way to
put spending caps on Congress and term limits.
First and foremost, are both of those good
ideas? The answer by almost every Kansan is
an overwhelming yes.
If thats the case, why didnt the Kansas
House of Representatives support the convention?
The answer is because they arent very
bright, and they apparently rely on talking
points rather than facts.
First things first, it takes a two-thirds
majority vote of the Kansas House to call a
Constitutional Convention of the States, and
while the vote tally was overwhelmingly in
support of the move, 74-48, it was eight votes
short of the votes necessary.
You might believe that this was strictly
down party lines, and you are almost correct.
Three Democrats voted for the convention and
one didnt vote at all. The other 36 of the 40
Democrats voted against it.
Thats understandable from their point of
view. Democrats dont believe in cutting gov-
KANSAS COMMENTARY
EARL WATT, THE LEADER & TIMES
ernment spending or setting any boundaries on spending at all. They also dont want
Democrats holding national office to be limited in any way. Longevity has been a path to
success for the Democratic Party. Of the top 20
longest serving senators of all time, seven are
Republican while 13 are Democrats.
Of the top 20 members of the House or
Senate, only three are Republican. The other
17 are Democrats. Do you honestly think
Democrats support limiting terms when their
concentration of power relies on using the
incumbency effect to win elections?
Its clear why Democrats overwhelmingly
voted against term limits and fiscal controls
on the federal government.
Whats more baffling is why 12 Republicans
voted against it and two chose not to vote at
all.
Its easy to question their intelligence
when you try to decipher what Republican
Representative Trevor Jacobs said in a report
by the Kansas Reflector.
Since we have chosen not to self-govern
by Gods word, we must now be governed by
corrupt men, Jacobs said. We have staked
the whole future of American civilization, not
upon the power of government, far from it.
We have staked the future of all our political
institutions upon the capacity of mankind for
self-government.
Are his writers the same as those who write
for Kamala Harris? This jibberish makes no
sense whatsoever, and it is a far cry from
representing anything of a person of faith.
As best as this word salad can be deciphered,
hes basically saying that in his judgement, we
arent governing by Gods word but by corrupt
men.
Lets say he has a point. He voted to allow
those same corrupt men to have an unlimited
checkbook on your account and that they can
stay in office for life. For … life.

The outrage of Jan. 6 is a poor cause for Trump
The philosopher Eric Hoffer famously
wrote, Every great cause begins as a movement, becomes a business, and eventually
degenerates into a racket.
What he evidently didnt count on was
great outrages becoming causes.
From the perspective of the immediate
aftermath of Jan. 6, it was hard enough to
believe that Donald Trump would survive the
event, let alone make it a plank in a powerful
comeback bid just a few years later.
But there was Trump in Waco, Texas, opening his inaugural rally of the 2024 campaign
with a recording of the song Justice for All
that he performed with the J6 Prison Choir,
with some scenes of Jan. 6 playing on the jumbotrons.
Among those favorably inclined toward it,
the riot at the Capitol has progressed from
something to be minimized closer to something to be celebrated, almost, if not quite,
Stop the Steals Bastille Day.
For Trump, a master at appropriating the
catch lines and attacks of the other side,
reversing the meaning of Jan. 6 would be
his most audacious move yet. How long is it
before that day becomes the perfect protest?
Trump still hews to the two premises of the
Jan. 6 riot — that, as a general proposition, the
2020 election was stolen and, more particularly, that Vice President Mike Pence could have
stopped the counting of the electoral votes if
he werent so weak.
Trump has talked about pardoning the rioters, who are great patriots, and floated the
idea of the government apologizing to many of
them.
Now, it is true that the Justice Department
NATIONAL COMMENTARY
RICH LOWRY, King Features Syndicate
has gone out of its way to run up the number
of prosecutions to make a political point about
the seriousness of the event, and defendants
have been denied bail in a highly unusual
manner.
That said, making excuses for or valorizing
Jan. 6 is deeply wrong.
First, theres the matter of principle. Riots
are bad and never justified. They hurt people
and destroy property, while achieving nothing or setting back the cause they were supposed to advance. Disorder at the heart of the
U.S. government, disrupting a longstanding
ritual connected to the peaceful transfer of
power, is particularly egregious.
Second, justifying or excusing political
violence has a deranging influence on the
republic. The more reasons both sides have to
physically fear each other, the easier it is to
justify extreme measures in response.
Third, its simply terrible politics. If the
other side is desperate to portray you as in
bed with fanatics and rioters, its best not to
go out of your way to prove them right. Its
perverse that just as the Jan. 6 Committee is
no longer in a position to constantly remind
the public of Jan. 6, here comes Donald Trump
to remind people.
Itd be a little like Richard Nixon running
for the 1976 Republican presidential nomination, and campaigning with a barbershop
quartet made up of Watergate burglars.
Or Ulysses S. Grant running for a third
term while extolling the unappreciated virtues of the organizers of the Whiskey Ring
scandal.
What Trump is doing flies in the face of
the lessons of the midterms. Jan. 6 lent emotional power to the Democratic argument that
democracy was under threat, and Stop the
Steal candidates proved radioactive. Trump
wants, in effect, to repeat November 2022s
failed political experiment on a larger scale in
2024.
On top of his natural inclinations, Trump
may be making a calculation that in a primary race with Ron DeSantis to be the most
MAGA Republican candidate, he cant lose
by staking out a pro-Jan. 6 position. Thats
not a crazy bet, but if Trump is going to be
beaten it will probably be, in part, on grounds
that he carries too much baggage and is an
electability risk. By embracing rather than
skirting one of his major vulnerabilities, he
gives his adversaries more ammunition on
both counts.
Jan. 6 is an outrage that shouldnt become
a cause.
Rich Lowry is editor of the National Review
and dropped in the night drop box. With people doing vile and ugly things to each other
these days its just refreshing to find someone
who does the right thing for another person.
Restores my faith in humanity. Thank you.
I been sitting her reading the news article
about the swimming pool in Garnett. Ive lived
in Garnett for 10 years, and the party that was
supposed to take care of that pool, whoever he
is, should have been looking into a new pool
10 years ago instead of looking at shutting it
down today. So I think you all need to take some
advice about where your money goes. For some
reason somebody got $400,000 for a new airstrip
out here at the airport thats got six planes in
it, and we might have more than six kids that
want to go swimming at the swimming pool. So I
think you need to do a better job of looking after
your dollar bill.
I wonder how many trans shooters will be motivated by the book left in the Garnett library?
Its pretty amazing that middle class Republican
white men yet again were the only voices to give
their opinion on gender and wokeness. And
wasnt it cute that one even had the respect and
honor to speak on behalf of all women? Maybe
if men had such respect theyd actually listen
when we spoke up, since weve been treated as
second class citizens for centuries.
To that fabulous young speaker, a servant youre
not. A smooth talker you are. A salesperson. A
deceiver of the naive. Go back to the mountains
of Colorado. Good riddance, goodbye and good
luck. The end.
So, we cant affford a new pool, we cant afford
water to put in the pool. We run off a source of
revenue like a wind farm and we dont build
an incinerator to generate electricity. Our high
school grads leave for other places. Its high
time we started constructive dialogue to solve
our problems and quit talking about cats in
other peoples yards.
A bright young speaker in the center of Garnett
has nefarious plans for many ears. Please watch
out for this spewing out to the young. Thank
you.
The Garnett pool is very much needed. Please do
what you can to keep it going. Its the best thing
Garnett has. Its what the blind man at Garnett
looks forward to and others. We need the pool.
Please Lord, let this work, we need the pool.

Colony Christian Church – April 2nd
The last beatitude: Blessed
are those who are persecuted for righteousness sake,
for theirs is the kingdom of
heaven. (Matt 5:10). This last
beatitude works with the first
beatitude by sandwiching this
group of teachings between
the declaration, theirs is the
Kingdom of Heaven. As believers in the Lord Jesus Christ, we
have become citizens of Heaven
(Phil 3:20), and now we live by
a different set of standards that
appear upside down from the
real world. What most people
dont realize is that our weakness is actually our biggest
strength. God explained this to
Paul in 2 Cor 12:9, my power is
made perfect in weakness, and
Pauls response was, I am glad
to boast about my weaknesses,
so that the power of Christ can
work through me. We see this
in Jesus own life. The devils
biggest scheme to defeat Jesus
turned out to be Jesus greatest
victory! Jesus appeared weak
as they stripped, beat, mocked,
and then finally hung him on
a cross to die. But God used
Christs willing obedience
to allow the weakness of his
human flesh to be killed as the
perfect sacrifice that not only
atoned for our sins, but by the
power of the Holy Spirit, raised
Jesus back to life defeating
death and the devil (Heb2:14).
When we live according to the
teachings of Jesus and embrace
the upside down thinking of the
beatitudes, we are participating in the Kingdom of God, even
and perhaps especially when
we are persecuted, as the definition of persecution applies
biblically. Matt 5:11 provides
context by explaining, Blessed
are you when others revile you
and persecute you and utter
all kinds of evil against you
falsely on my account. 1 Peter
4:15 makes it clear that you are
not experiencing persecution if
you are suffering consequences
for doing something evil, like
murder or stealing. Neither is
high gas prices nor the cost of
eggs persecution since believers and unbelievers alike suffer
the same economic hardships.
Blessed are you when you are
like Stephen (Acts 6:5 – 7:60),
who was feeding orphans and
widows. But because he was a
follower of Jesus, they stoned
him to death. And Stephen
prayed to God the whole time
to forgive them for murdering
him. Once again, just when
evil thought it had won, Gods
power was revealed. And
there arose on that day a great
persecution against the church
in Jerusalem, and they were
all scattered throughout the
regions of Judea and Samaria
(Acts 8:1). And the church
grew! Blessed are those who are
persecuted for righteousness
sake, for the kingdom of heaven is theirs. Stephen believed
this. Full of the Holy Spirit,
he gazed into heaven and saw
the glory of God, and Jesus
standing at the right hand of
God and he called out, Lord
Jesus, receive my sprit, and
he entered into heaven for eternity.

part of a $1.5 million project,
which also includes corrective

would make up for the missing instruction time due to

to 186. Refinancing the bonds
used to build ACJSHS will only
be approved if the bond company can get a return of $570,000

that the district would now

attorney Terry Solander called
a drunken mob (that) forced
local police to retreat in their
efforts to curtail a public dis-
turbance thereafter they were
outnumbered by event-goers.
Started in the late 1990s as a
fundraiser for the local chapter
last year and even drew an estimated 1,200 people to the event
location. The Kansas Bureau
of Investigation is looking for
a local bank employee in connection with the disappearance
of an undetermined amount of
cash destined for the automatic teller machines belonging
to Patriots Bank of Garnett.
Authorities are searching for
Jeffery Meeker and David
Valsvik for questioning as no
charges have yet been filed.
10 years ago…
By a margin that was first
reported as a mere 48 votes,
but later revealed to be closer
to 150, came the approval of a
new $25M hospital project. The
new project was defeated in
almost every rural voting precinct, but only in a few of those
by decisive margins, leaving
Garnetts largest wards to sway
the outcome. The measure was
endorsed by county commissioners, which commits county
taxpayers to a little over a 5
mill tax increase to combine
with nearly tripled operating
lease payments from St. Lukes
to pay off bonds for the project. Opponents to the measure
warned that St. Lukes was
only committed to the first 10
years of the lease agreement
with extensions out to 30 years.
A drop in FTE Enrollment and
pending state budget cuts mean
a likely property tax increase
all but inevitable for the next
school year for USD 365.
OVERRIDE…
FROM PAGE 1
legislators will regret their
vote in the future when they
look back on their time in the
Legislature.
Groups supporting transgender and LGBTQ groups
railed against the override.
ACLU Kansas called the move
a devastating blow to student
athletics and basic fairness,
charging the bill was about discrimination and not fairness to
women athletes. The Kansas
Democratic LGBTQ Caucus
noted the override vote falling
on the 18th anniversary of the
passage of a bill defining mar-
riage in Kansas as one man,
one woman which was later
nullified by action of the U.S.
Supreme Court.
They proved today that
their hate is still as strong as it
was 18 years ago, said Brandie
Armstrong, caucus chair.
Senator Renee Erickson,
who spearheaded the bill over
three sessions, celebrated its
final passage.
Now that the Fairness
in Womens Sports Act will
become law, Kansas will be
able to uphold Title IX and protect fair play for Kansas girls,
as it has done for 50 years,
Erickson said. Today is truly
a victory for all women.
Numerous women athletes
testified in favor of the bill over
the past three years, including
former University of Kansas
pole vaulter Callie Hicks of
Greeley. Former Univeristy
of Kentucky swimmer Riley
Gaines, who lost a national championship to a male
swimmer from University of
Pennsylvania who was allowed
to compete as a woman in 2022,
also testified this session.

strike out 7 Lebo hitters as
well.

walk-off 6-5 victory.
Lebo broke a 2-2 tie with a
3-run top of the fourth inning

Vikings split squad up at two different meets
RICHMOND The Central
Heights Vikings split their
track & field team up last week,
sending some to meets at both
Prairie View and Osage City
to allow athletes that compete
in the same event to get more
opportunities.
The kids definitely made
it count in every way possible, Viking head coach Troy
Prosser stated reaffirming his
decision to do such a thing.
Prosser was referring to the
22 personal records set in their
respective meets.
Freshmen Aydan Dunbar
was the standout at Prairie
View with medals in both the
Long Jump and 100m.
At Osage City, Connor
Burkdoll won a tactical, windy
1600, Cody Hammond outran
the field in the last stretch of
the 800, and the boys 4×800
pulled out a victory over a
tough field.
Even with
limited events, the boys still
managed to place 6th out of
14 teams and several hundred
competitors.
Prosser concluded, All in
all, I have been happy with
the work ethic our kids have
shown and the willingness to
push themselves beyond their
comfort zones time and time
again.
This week the Vikings will
travel to Pleasanton.

HOUSING…
FROM PAGE 1
Turnipseed said. This strategy will encourage unique, safe,
and affordable housing for residents of Anderson County.
City commissioners had
pressed members of the Garnett
Housing Authority Board in
recent months to pursue a
study in order to determine
if waiting lists for the citys
senior living facilities indicated a need for more senior living
units in the citys three retirement living facilities. Housing
board members were reticent
to pursue a study, saying the
organization should instead
pay down more of its $500,000
debt before pursing an expansion. Commissioners appointed two vacancies on the board
in December who are more
open to pursing an expansion.
ACDA opted to engage a
housing study on its own with
the Nebraska firm, which
was funded by a $10,000 grant
from the Throckmorton-Riser
Foundation.

Rep. Jacobs, I invite you to

in our faith. All are redeemable, thank God, and your condemnation on humanity is no

Convention, but the bill limited any conversation to fiscal limits and term limits. The
convention would not be able
to touch any other part of the
Constitution.
This is an example of electing
people for superficial attributes
rather than true conservative
acumen and a sound background in the Constitution.
It might seem nerdy, but it
is the best way to advance a
nation conceived in liberty and
dedicated to the proposition
that all men are created equal.

PUZZLES / COMICS
Amendment would cap property value increases at 4%
David Hicks, The Sentinel
TOPEKA The Kansas Senate moved
last week to amend the Kansas
Constitution to allow no more than
a 4 percent per year increase in property valuations for most properties.
The final vote on SCR 1611 was
28-11 with one member absent.
Last week, the Senate stood at
26-14 on the issue, one shy of the
necessary 2/3 required to approve a
constitutional amendment limiting
increases in property valuations to
present to voters. That measure limited increases to 3% yearly.
If passed by the House and eventually approved by voters, the amendment would cap tax-assessed property value increase year-over-year at 4
percent. There would be exceptions
for changes in property class, new
construction or for when property is
transferred to a new owner.
Three Republican senators;
Brenda Dietrich of Topeka, Michael
Fagg of El Dorado, and Carolyn
McGinn of Sedgwick voted Yes
after initially opposing the amendment. The Sentinel asked each senator for a comment, but none responded.
Sen.
Jeff
Pittman
from
Leavenworth County was the lone
Democrat voting in favor. Sen. David
Haley of Kansas City, a Yes vote
initially, was absent for the final
tally.
Sen. Carny Tyson of Parker saluted her GOP colleagues:
With this bill, the Senate has put
the percentages in favor of the taxpayers. Now, well see where it goes
from here
Along with the Truth in
Taxation law passed in 2021, Kansas
lawmakers appear to be making progress in reining in contentious property tax increases.
SCR 1611 now goes to the House
for consideration, but its not known
when that could occur. If approved,
the amendment will be on the ballot
in November, 2024.

FROM PAGE 1
learned about Lees interesting career from Lees wife
Elizabeth, who died in 1968 and
kept much of the promotional materials, photos and other
memorabilia from Lees career.
Those materials and Internet
references from other sources
are about the only thing that
links him to the movie, Kiefer
says, because though his work
was the backdrop for the entire
film and was eventually literally destroyed by fire in the movies climatic scene, he wasnt
listed in the credits.
Kiefer said the familys
unsure how Oates got into the
wax figure business, but they
know he opened his own studio
in Los Angeles and plied his
trade with celebrity reproductions which store owners could
buy and adorn with their own
clothing for sale. The idea was
apparently a hit with some of
the higher-end retailers, and
Oates made a reputation that
garnered the attention of movie
execs.
Photos and production documents show the procedure Oates
used to make the reproductions
so lifelike. First, naked models were outlined with string
taped to their bodies along seam
points, then greased and coated
with plaster. When the plaster
hardened, technicians carefully
pulled the string to cut the plaster, and used the half sections
as molds to later fill with wax
and reattach to make whole bodies. Clothing was then tailored
to fit the forms to make the
most attractive displays. It was
a process Oates invented and is
still used today in sculpture and
molding.
Kiefer said Oates eventually moved his family north to
Marin County when he retired.
Keifers father James more or
less followed in Lees footsteps
after his hitch in World War II.
He got out and I guess didnt
really know what to do with
himself, so he got into selling
mannequins to stores all up and
down the West Coast, Kiefer
said. He took a lot of care in
building them with detailed,
attractive faces.
But as time went on retailers
started buying cheaper mannequins with no facial features
sometimes no faces at all. The
market for detailed mannequins
ebbed, and Kiefers father had to
find a new line of work.
Kiefer said her family grew
up with the little known gem
of her grandfathers wax-based
movie stardom. They all knew
the film, and theyd watch for
it on the occasions it would be
featured as a late-night fright
flick.
Kiefer eventually acquired
a VHS tape of the film, which
combined with the materials
her grandmother saved, form
a trove of family history that
connects them to a piece of
Hollywood movie magic.
And, unbeknownst to them
until now, it connects them to
Garnett as well.
ABOUT THE FILM: A sculptor (Lionel Atwill) is disfigured
when a London wax museum
is burned by its owner for the
insurance money. Years later,
that sculptor has relocated
to New York and is about to
reopen a new museum with recreations of his greatest works. A
young reporter (Glenda Farrell)
notices that the Joan Of Ark
figure looks a lot like a young
woman who died a few days ago,
and whose body disappeared
from the morgue. (Obviously,
195House Of Wax was a very
faithful remake.) Then, as luck
would have it, Fay Wray wanders into the museum, and shes
the spitting image of Atwills
melted masterpiece, Marie
Antoinette. From there, things
get even weirder and far more
sinister as Atwills evil plan and
despicable working methods
are discovered.

Rick and Connie Thompson, Kincaid, KS, were recognized as part of the 2022 Class of Master
Farmers and Master Farm Homemakers. This recognition program is for local farm and ranch families.
The Thompson Family selected
as 2022 Master Farm Family
Rick and Connie Thompson,
Kincaid, were recognized as
part of the 2022 Class of Master
Farmers and Master Farm
Homemakers. This recognition program is for local farm
and ranch families. It is sponsored by K-State Research and
Extension and Kansas Farmer
Magazine, with additional support provided by Kansas Farm
Bureau, Frontier Farm Credit/
American AgCredit, and the
Kansas State Fair Board.
The Thompson family, who
call the Frontier District home,
have been in agricultural production for 44 years. As the
children of generational farmers, agriculture runs in Rick
and Connies blood. Ricks love
of the farm and hard work
made him sure his place was
on the farm. Ricks father, in
partnership with Ricks uncle,
inherited the dairy business
in the early 1950s. Rick recalls
milking the 120 cows at 3 AM
prior to class and basketball
practice. Strong worth ethic
has always been a part of the
Thompson family. Rick began
farming in 1979, the year after
he graduated from high school.
After attending Crest High
School with Rick, Connie
attended nursing school at Ft.
Scott Community College. She
worked at a local hospital and
doctor's office prior to having
their 3 children, Blake, Erin,
and Nick. Together, they decided Connie would be a stay-athome mom. Connie joined
many local volunteer organizations to help in any capacity. She continues these efforts
today. Over the years, the
Thompsons have been heavily
involved in activities, such as
the Extension Board Council
representing Anderson County
(later the Frontier District),
Seekers- not-Slackers 4-H Club,
the Kincaid Fair Association,
and many more.

Anderson County EMS covers nearly 600 square miles in

help to arrive.
"The PulsePoint AED app
displays where all the registered AEDs are located on a
map," Esson demonstrated
with one touch on her mobile
smartphone. "We encourage
anyone who is CPRtrained to download the
PulsePoint AED app for information on AEDs in your geographic area. As more AEDs
are registered in Anderson
County, and across the state,
the more useful this tool will
be."
Early application of bystander CPR and rapid defibrillation
from an AED have proven to be
crucial in improving a persons
chance of surviving sudden
cardiac arrest.
With PulsePoint AED, we
hope to create greater awareness throughout our community around the important role
CPR-trained bystanders and
AEDs play in out-of-hospital
cardiac arrest survival, said
Troy Armstrong, Manager of
Anderson County EMS. "We'll
also be offering CPR courses
to get even more folks trained
and prepared to respond in an
emergency."
"Having an accurate AED
registry within our community,
along with increasing the number of CPR-trained bystanders,
can greatly improve the odds
during a cardiac arrest event
and can help save a life."
For questions about registering an AED or to learn more
about CPR training opportunities through Anderson
County EMS, please contact

Coordinator, at 785-204-7194.
