THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT State and local law
enforcement have so far been
unable to track down a person
of interest in the November
2018 arson fire that damaged
the home of Carl Maley east of
Garnett.
Anderson County Sheriff Vern
Valentine said last week both his
departments efforts and those
of the Kansas Fire Marshals
office had come up empty in trying to locate the individual for
questioning. He said the formal
state report on the incident was
received last week.
Valentine said the lack of a
direct connection between the
individual and the incident made
it problematic to proceed in a
normal course with the investigation.
When a person is just a person of interest, we are unable to
get a (arrest) warrant in order
to attempt to find or locate,
Valentine said. There is no real
evidence that this person set a
fire just that he was in the
area.
Valentine said the available
information for probable cause
in cases like this rarely convince
judges to issue warrants.
County fire chief Mick
Brinkmeyer listed the cause of
the fire as incendiary and was
contained to the kitchen and utility room with smoke and water
damage to the rest of the home.
There were no injuries.
The person of interest in the
incident reportedly told family
members he did not plan to stay
in the area long, and was trying to find transportation north
even before the blaze occurred,
Valentine said.

Project still awaiting

BY DANE HICKS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
WELDA A gas pipeline
replacement project that could
bring as much as $5 million in
economic impact to Anderson
County is still awaiting approval from federal regulators
before it can break ground
early in 2020.
Documents filed last year
with the federal register and
updated in September 2019
showed a projected environmental assessment authorization deadline of December 9 for
the Southern Star Central Gas
Pipeline project, which will
install some 32 miles of new
gas line from Welda to Ottawa
and remove two existing lines.
Tyler McClure, communications specialist with SSCGP in
said last week the authorization from the Federal Energy
Regulatory Commission would
likely take until January of
next year.
Were still waiting for
approval, McClure told the
Review in an email on Friday.
We hope to get FERC approval
by mid-January, and begin construction in February.
The $145 million project
will have both temporary and
lasting economic impacts on
the area, according to economic projections provided by
Southern Star.
Those projections show
some $2.1 million in estimated
lodging business for local providers and about $1.4 million in
additional restaurant business
from workers on the project.
looking for income tax credits can donate money to a
special fund set up in the
state to assist people starting
commercial businesses.
The money donated
to the Kansas Center for
Entrepreneurship will provide funding for entrepreneurship programs and
matching loans, Turnipseed
said in a press release.
Donors receive a 75%
state income tax credit for
their donation. A tax credit
is a dollar-for-dollar credit
against state income tax liability. This means that for
every $1,000 donated, donors
will receive $750 credit off
their state income tax liability.
Donors are also eligible to
receive a federal and state tax
deduction and should consult
with their individual tax
specialist to determine the
amount of any deductions.
Those eligible to donate are
individuals, financial institutions (banks and savings and
loans) and corporations can
donate to the Kansas Center
for Entrepreneurship.

USD 365 sees higher costs for proposed facility projects
GARNETT USD 365 will take
a slower approach to a number
of planned facilities and equipment upgrades after reviewing
cost estimates last week.
Superintendent Don Blome
told board members estimates
from architect and building
firms had outpaced preliminary estimates hed prepared
previously, and that the dis-
trict would most likely have
to scale back or stretch out the
investment plan over more
years.
My estimates were based
on previous discussions
with architects, Blome said.
Nabholzs are based on what
they are seeing in the region
for present construction cost.
Preliminary estimates for
16 separate projects in the
district spread out over three
years were initially pegged at
some $2.8 million, but Nabholz
Construction estimates for
those jobs came in at around
$5.5 million, Blome told board
members. Chief among those
was a proposal to enclose the

DECEMBER 2, 2019
Chairman Jerry Howarter called
the meeting of the Anderson County
Commission to order at 9:00 AM on
December 2, 2019 at the County
Commission Room. Attendance:
Jerry Howarter, Present: David Pracht,
Present: Leslie McGhee, Present.
The pledge of allegiance was recited.
Minutes from the previous meeting
were approved as presented.
Road & Bridge
Lester Welsh, Road & Bridge
Supervisor, met with the commission. He is interviewing applicants
for the truck driver position this week.
Discussion was held on county roads
and what is on their schedule for maintenance.
County Appraiser
Adam Wilson, County Appraiser,
met with the commission. He would
like to hire Equitable Solutions,
Emporia, in 2020 to look at all commercial and exempt properties for valuation. The model that the company
uses is in line with how the State of
Kansas Property of Valuation Division
is looking to move towards in the
future. They take a more regional
approach for valuation of properties
due to the fact that Anderson County
does not have that many properties to
compare values to. The one time cost
for the valuation of all 570 commercial
and exempt parcels is $12,000. The
department has the funds available
to cover the cost. The commissioners
are in agreement with making sure all
parcels are valued correctly and how
they are valued is the same. Adam
will meet with the commission in 2020
for final approval before he begins the
project.

The project overall will generate around $2.2 million in
sales tax, company officials
say, with a projected property
tax payment increase to the
county of a million per year.
Similar impacts were
expected in Franklin County
as well. Statewide, company
officials estimated some $45
million in benefits from the
cost of the project.
The project was at least one
of the motivations behind a
spike in the development of
RV parks locally, with two
area developers adding RV
parking spaces on land they
already owned in Welda and
Garnett, and one major park
developer utilizing the former
industrial site south of Garnett

Know thy competitor, know thyself
Knowing your competitor
provides a lot of keys to help
you sell stuff.
Lots of small businesses
dont give their competition
enough credit. Whether its
denial, jealousy or flat out
ignorance, some of us never
consider the pluses our competitors have that keeps them
in business and in the end
helps them gain and retain
customers that could be doing
business with us.
When customers are looking
for us to solve their problem
(which is why theyre doing
business with us in the first
place) they have a couple of
defined criteria by which theyll
make the selection. These are
the things relating to our product or service which are the
most important to them. It may
be price; it may be convenience;
it may be trust in a referral
they got from a friend; it may
be approachability or speed or

even our location on their regular route of travel. Whatever it
is, these are the make or break
criteria by which they award
their business to someone.
So we need to commit to an
assessment of what our defined
advantages are, and make
those central to our marketing
efforts. Are we the fastest? Are
we the cheapest? Do we have
the most experience? What is
our competitors defined advantage, and how does he/she use
it to market his/her company?
As you define and assess
your advantages, you have
to do a realistic comparison
against your competitor. If hes
faster, should you adapt to try
to be faster, or should you focus
on your own defined advantage
and forget trying to compete
for speed? Your analysis has
to determine 1) how close you
are to becoming fastest; 2) how
practical it is to try to convince
your customers youre fastest;
and 3) how important speed is
to your customers in the first
place.
Align your defined advantages with the wants and needs
of your customers and market that message to them, and
youll definitely sell stuff!

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW Tuesday, December 10, 2019
OPINION
Watkins bombs Pearl Harbor sort of
The liberals in charge of the Kansas City Star
editorial board got a life raft last week amid
the recent woeful, choking tsunami thats fast
enveloping the countrys socialists and other
haters of conservatives.
It was a gaffe from one of their favorite
Republican targets, 2nd District Congressman
Steve Watkins.
But why are liberals so glum in the first place
to be making such ado about nothing? Start
with the wacky cartoon impeachment hearings
turning into a great big political goose egg
for Democrats; then add in President Trumps
approval ratings surge following economic
gains and some overdue nose-thumbing at entitled NATO leaders; now ice the cake with the
ominous Darth Vader Imperial March tuning
up in the background for the arrival of the
Horowitz and Durham reports on alleged FBI
conspiracy against the Trump campaign. For
woke America, its getting hard to tell the
ship from the iceberg.
Liberals in our region drowning in that sea
of dismal news got a break last week when
it was discovered Watkins put his mailing
address on the residence line of his Shawnee
County voter registration form.
Life preservers away!
The story garnered near JAPS BOMB PEARL
HARBOR headline status on the front page of
Thursday Star as well as a half page editorial
calling for Watkins to be neutered, drawn and
quartered for his transgression.
For the Stars notorius lefties, it was a perfect
opportunity to revisit an old favorite among the
papers list of Republican punching bags former Kansas Secretary of State Kris Kobach for
his historic gall in pursuing voter fraud in the
state. At the same time the Star got to lament
poor, vanquished and forgotten but honorable Democrat Paul Strip Bar Davis who
lost to Watkins, a former U.S. Army captain
and political newcomer, in 2018. And, what a
chance to run through Watkins list of political
novice errors, including spending so much
money to win his election that he now sleeps on
a cot in his congressional office to avoid paying
Washington, D.C., rent, in hopes of someday
making a down payment on a house in Topeka.
Such ta-do over putting his UPS office mailing address on the residency line of his voter
registration instead of the apartment he rents
in Topeka. This intolerable offense obviously
was savvy cover for Watkins vote in the wrong
Topeka City Council election granted a tight
outcome at a 13-vote margin. The biggest effect
to come out of the scandal is that now people
outside the Topeka city limits have actually
seen city council candidates Spencer Duncan
and Jeff Coens names in print.
REVIEW COMMENTARY
DANE HICKS, Publisher
What price will Watkins pay for this abominable heresy? Pshaw. Hed have been worse
off to double park behind a Dodge Neon in the
metered parking area down at the statehouse.
But no doubt the dalliance has been a welcome
distraction for the Stars left-leaning editorialists and reporters in these hefty hand-wringing
days for their compatriot socialists; all of them
so bent on tearing down Trumpian America
and replacing it with drive-thru abortion, free
college tuition, free healthcare for illegal immigrants, et al. Recent news has added to this
cinnamon challenge for Democrats: 266,000 jobs
created in November, jobless rate of 3.5 percent
and a record low unemployment for blacks
and Hispanics. But the news that brightens the
country triggers the haters.
The Star and its ilk, and even stuffed shirt
Deep Sunflower Staters, in his own party put
a target on Watkins back ever since he won
a bruising primary and general election last
year. Watkins has been a solid conservative
vote in favor of Trumps policies on Capitol Hill.
Thats a sin the Star hopes to fervently rectify
by unseating him in favor of placing another
Democrat in the House and more importantly
spiking the football in an in-your-face at
Kansas Republicans.
How the Star and Kansas Citys traditional Democrat political machine yearn to elect
another liberal darling like Johnson Countys
Sharice Davids, whose biggest accomplishment
in her 3rd District seat so far has been her
ability to stay absolutely invisible, lest she rile
the JOCO GOP latte sippers who helped her get
elected.
Alas, a new week has dawned and the realities that so constern the Kansas City Star
and the American Left return to haunt their
tortured psyches like a blunder in a trapeze act.
Much is gnawing at liberals and the Democrats
in Congress right now, and it cant be cloaked
by a tempest in a Kansas teapot. ###

Mr. Hicks, I would like to see you do an article or someone at your paper do an article,
on the two decrepit houses at the intersection of 169 Highway and 6th Street. Those
houses have been there for decades, no one
has ever lived in them, and theyre just falling down and an eyesore to the traffic on
the highway. Does there not happen to be
any county zoning in Garnett or in Anderson
County? I would like to know. Thank you.
The people of Garnett are constantly encouraged to shop locally and not to go out of town.
Then why, concerning the Garnett Christmas
Parade, was there someone from out of town
selling popcorn when we have a very local
talented person who sells popcorn as well? The
question is why?
I think someone in Garnett needs to read the
driving book one more time. Yes, its yield to
the vehicle on the right at an unmarked interstion, but that is only when two vehicles arrive
at the same time. Otherwise the vehicle in the
intersection first has the right of way. So if you
KASB minimizes bad NAEP scores in Kansas
In a recent responseto the precipitous
decline in the National Assessment of
Educational Progress (NAEP) scores, the
Kansas Association of School Boards (KASB)
has spun the results to:
-> minimize the importance of NAEP,
-> identify spurious excuses, and
-> ultimately point the finger of blame at
you guessed it, not enough money.
KASB trivialized NAEP to make the results
seem both insignificant and suspect by stating
that NAEP tests a small sample of students,
implying that the scores dont mean much and
that the results cant actually be extrapolated
to the general population. Despite how KASB
portrays NAEP, KSDE calls it the gold standard of assessments.
The report also plays fast and loose with
trends in NAEP data, including making a
patently false statement. The claim is Kansas
results peaked around 2009 and 2011 and have
generally declined since. Translated: Scores
were highest when there was more money
pursuant to Montoy and they declined
because funding went down after the Great
Recession. The only problem with their printed words is that is simply not true. As the table
indicates, there has been no peak periods in
NAEP performance. To wit:
-> 4th-grade math: the scores were relatively stable from 2005 to 2013 before a sharp

DAVID DORSEY, KANSAS POLICY INSTITUTE
drop-off in 2015 that has continued in 2017 and
2019 now below 2003 levels.
-> 4th-grade reading: the results were
steady from 2007-13, scores dropped in 2015
and are now also below 2003 scores.
-> 8th-grade math: results were similar
from 2007 to 2017 but now are barely above
2003 levels.
-> 8th-grade reading: scores were remarkably consistent from 2003 to 2017 but now are
lowest ever.
KASB and the rest of the education establishment have consistently tried to make
the public believe that money is the driving
force behind test scores. This remains evi-
dent in the Gannon saga and will remain so
despite our present Gannon reprieve. Those
lobbying for more money to public education
pointed to the rise in test scores during the
No Child Left Behind years after court-ordered Montoy money went into school coffers.
Going back two decades as NAEP began widespread adoption, it is clear that increasing
spending does not impact student achievement. The only objective statement is that
spending has far outpaced inflation and NAEP
achievement is stubbornly flat.
In light of this evidence, KASB seem to be
humming a different tune when it comes to
the impact of court-ordered money pursuant
to Gannon. Now, according to KASB, it will
take time for improvements to follow the
funding. I dont recall hearing that argument
during the Gannon trial. Maybe money really
does make a difference a difference in how
excuses are formed for explaining sagging
assessment results.
KASB unabashedly admits the money has
been used to make up for lost time for such
expenses as increasing teacher salaries
KASB is quick to point out that educator
salaries fell behind inflation increasing
building principals, assistant principals and
support staff. The report details other expendiSEE REPORT ON PAGE 1B
Our economy is cool; our society? Not so much
The economy is in robust good health, but
our social fabric isnt.
By two basic measures of social vitality,
births and deaths, American society is faltering. Both the fertility rate and life expectancy
are declining, in a sign that people feel less
secure and, in some cases, have no hope at all.
We are attuned to headline-grabbing economic statistics — GDP growth, the unemployment rate, wages — as monthly and quarterly metrics of American well-being, but they
arent as telling as these more fundamental
indicators.
To put it bluntly, contemporary America is
characterized by less pro-creation and more
self-destruction. This suggests something is
profoundly wrong with the state of the union,
although it doesnt receive the attention and
the debate it deserves.
The fertility rate in 2018 dropped for the
fourth straight year. It has hit a record low,
and has fallen 15% since 2007. With the recovery after the Great Recession, the rate bumped
up a little in 2014 before receding again.
Part of the story is a steep drop over the
years in teenage pregnancy, a welcome and
long-sought development. Women in their 20s
have also been having fewer children, though.
The trend is toward women delaying having
children and having fewer of them.
As demographer Lyman Stone notes, the
survey data tends to show that women still
NATIONAL COMMENTARY
RICH LOWRY, King Features Syndicate
want kids, in fact perhaps more children than
before. But later-in-life childbearing is inherently more difficult, and student debt, high
housing costs and intense parental investment in children make having kids more burdensome (or at least feel that way).
While we now have fewer births, the death
rate is increasing. A new study published in
JAMA notes that after stalling out in 2010, life
expectancy in the country has been declining
since 2014, down from 78.9 years to 78.6 in 2017.
The U.S. has been losing ground to other
countries in life expectancy since the 1980s.
According to the Kaiser Family Foundation,
it now has the lowest life expectancy among
comparable advanced nations.
The decline isnt hitting older Americans,
who are still making improvements, but is
cutting down people in the prime of their life,
ages 25-64. The odds, Lyman Stone writes,
that a 32-year-old will die in a given year rose
by almost 25% between 2012-14 and 2015-17.
American adulthood has suddenly become
more lethal than it has been in decades.
Drug overdoses are a major driver (midlife
mortality from drug overdoses has increased
almost 400% over the past 20 years), with liver
disease and suicide also contributing.
In 2017, an astonishing 150,000 Americans
died from drug or alcohol abuse and suicide,
more than U.S. combat deaths in World War
I, the Korean War and the Vietnam War combined. Evidence suggests that the increased
mortality is concentrated among persons with
lower levels of educations and income.
If we can get a handle on the opioid crisis,
it will make an enormous difference, but the
trends in life expectancy and fertility ought to
occasion soul-searching. How is it that a society as technologically advanced and affluent
as ours cant provide a more inviting environment for childbearing or the supports to keep
people from doing themselves grievous harm?
Even if there are no ready policy answers, the
question must be asked.

KSU rape lawsuit
made valid point
Two young women have dropped their federal lawsuit against Kansas State University, and
in a limited sense that makes complete sense
to us. Their case which alleged that K-State
should bear some of the blame for rapes that
happened off-campus never really added up,
in legal terms.
But that doesnt mean K-State can simply let
the issue drop. Because in a broader sense, the
women had a valid point….
The women, Tessa Farmer and Sara
Weckhorst, had sued K-State in 2016 for violating Title IX, the federal law that bans discrimination in higher education on the basis of sex…
The university cant divorce itself from fraternities, and it shouldnt. It simply needs to do
everything it can to enforce standards of acceptable behavior, and it needs to make certain
there are appropriate channels for handling
complaints. Were confident thats happening
now, and were confident that it will get better
as a result of this experience.
For that, we need to thank the two young
women who had the guts to sue.

Dec. 2009: Secret Santa gives out
cash to unsuspecting residents
December 2009
Several area residents, mostly in the Kincaid area, received
a surprise gift this Christmas
when a local man knocked on
the door to hand them each
a $100 bill. A veteran of the
Vietnam War, the man says he
didnt do it for publicity, but
to rekindle the spirits of the
recipients. The Secret Santa,
who requested to remain anonymous, said that he had recently had a brush with death due to
health problems, and that experience brought him to the place
in life he is today. He says God
told him that he couldnt take
his money with him and that he
needed to spread it around, so
hes doing just that.
December 1999
Greeley city council members recently set in motion a
process to fulfill the wishes
of two longtime residents to
bring a community library to
Greeley. Plans for the library
began in 1995 between Lorene
Rockers and Lonna Hill. Last
February, the city purchased a
building in downtown Greeley
that formerly housed a garage
run by Leonard Katzer. It is in
need of extensive remodeling
and the grant requested would
provide $36,000 to assist in the
remodeling costs. The build-

Vandals continue to create
problems in keeping the Kansas

rest area west of Colony open
due to the expense incurred
to replace broken or missing

a toll on the stop that it has
been temporarily closed until a
decision can be made. Division
panels in the restrooms were
kicked in, plumbing fixtures
shattered, light bulbs removed

A look into the history of the Christian flag
HISTORY
December 1979
Mrs. Edna Penland received
a Christmas gift from her niece
in Arizona that is most unusual. She received three wisemen statues that were made in
Indonesia. They are not made
of ceramic and are very lifelife.
Their faces may even be carved.
The jewel like gifts and cloth
robes appear to be made of actual cloth and jewelry. They look
heavy, but are feather weight
for their size. She welcomes
anyone to her home that knows
about art and could explain how
the statues are made.
December 1919
The Review has learned
from Harry Bernard, manager for the Church Furniture
Company, that he has sold the
old DeWolf factory, which has
been operated by the Church
Furniture Company the past
few years, to parties who will
deal, at wholesale, in school
furniture and supplies. The
new company will probably
employ, at the beginning, not
less than a dozen workmen,
which means the addition of a
number of families to Garnetts
population. The number of men
will be increased as the business grows. The new company
has ample capital to conduct
the business.

The U.S. Flag. We as
Americans honor it in so
many different ways. We
recite the pledge of Allegiance,
salute it, stand at attention,
uncover, place hands over our
hearts, etc.
Those of us who proclaim to
be Christians, do we honor the
Christian flag in some way?
I would almost be willing to
bet there is one placed somewhere in almost every church
in Anderson County. Are they
being honored or simply a part
of the church decor?
What do we know about the
Christian Flag. The Christian
Flag was first conceived on
Sept. 26 1897, at Brighton
Chapel on Coney Island
in Brooklyn, N.Y. In 1907
Charles C. Overton and Ralph
Diffendorfer, Secretary of the
Methodist Young Peoples
Missionary
Movement,
designed and began promoting
the flag. The National Council
of Churches & Christian
Churches, together adopted
the flag on 23 Jan 1942. Main
line Protestant denominations
in the U.S. accepted the flag
first and by 1980 many other
institutions had accepted it.
The Symbolism of the
Christian Flag. The ground
is white, representing peace,
purity and innocence. In the
upper corner is a blue square,
the color of the unclouded sky,
emblematic of heaven, the
home of the Christians, also
a symbol of faith and trust. In
the center of the blue is the
Cross, the ensign and chosen
symbol of Christianity, the
cross in red, typical of Christs
blood.
Did you know that there
is a Pledge of allegiance or
affirmation of loyalty to the
Christian Flag? A matter of
fact there have been three different pledges written over the
years.
I pledge allegiance to the
Christian Flag and to the
Saviour for whose kingdom it
stands; one brotherhood, uniting all mankind in service and
in love.
I pledge allegiance to the
Christian Flag, and to the
Saviour for whose Kingdom it
stands, one Saviour crucified,
risen, and coming again, with
life and Liberty for all who
believe.
I pledge allegiance to the
Christian Flag, and to the
Savior for whose Kingdom it
stands, one brotherhood uniting all (true) Christians, in
service and in love.
It is customary for the
Christian Flag to be displayed
opposite the U.S. Flag.
The Christian Flag is not
patented and therefore, anyone may manufacture it and
it may be used on all proper
occasions.
Note: the two different
spellings of the word Saviour
and Savior. Its not an error by
me.

Colony Christian Church – Pastor
Reibel shared about trip to Israel
Bruce Symes gave the
Communion Meditation over
Psalm 100. Shout with joy to
the Lord! Do not enter God's
presence with pride, but with
thankfulness. Our very existence is not ours. He created
us. We owe ALL to the one
who gave us life, gave us our
abilities, and even judges us
righteously. Always divert
attention away from ourselves,
and give it to Him.
Pastor Chase Reibel gave us
an overview of the trip that
he, Jessica and Bruce took to
Israel. With his presentation
were pictures from the Holy
Land that corresponded with
locations we see in the Bible.
They saw "Abraham's Gate",
olive presses, ceremonial
baths, and Golgotha,. They
believe they know the location
where David fought Goliath,
Peter's house, and possibly the
tomb that Jesus was buried.
They saw firsthand just how
large a millstone truly is; saw
a 2000 year old boat similar
to what Peter, James & John
would have used to fish in; and
the Jordan river where John
the Baptist baptized Jesus.
Pastor Chase even gave a sermon on the Sea of Galilee and
baptized several people. What
an AMAZING experience! (Ref:

Lady Bulldogs roll over Iola to open season Lady Lancers fend off
SCC for narrow win
GARNETT – Anderson County
started off in a dogfight against
Iola before pulling away in the
second half for a commanding
54-37 victory.
It was a back and forth battle early on as the score was
tied at 5 with 3:20 remaining in
the first quarter.
As the quarter was winding
down and the score knotted at
7, Rayna Jasper hit a buzzer
beater from three-point range
to close out the first quarter
and put the Bulldogs up 10-7
heading into the second.
Anderson County would
ride that momentum early on
in the second and lead 14-7 midway through the second period.
Iola would close the half on a
7-2 run to cut the deficit to 16-14
at intermission.
The third quarter would
be much of the same early on
as the Bulldogs were clinging
to a slim 23-21 lead with 4:07
remaining in the 3rd quarter.
The Bulldogs would put a
couple of key runs together late
though to distance themselves.
Anderson County would go
on a 14-5 run to lead 37-26 just a
minute into the fourth quarter
and would have another 10-2
spurt over the next 3 minutes
to take control 47-28.
Cali Foltz led the way with
22 points, 8 rebounds and 3
steals on the evening. Jasper
chipped in with 15 points, 5
assists and 4 steals and Marah
Lutz knocked down 6 of 9 shots
on the night for 12 points.

LEROY – It was a battle all
night and fortunately for the
Crest Lady Lancers they came
out with a 47-44 victory.
Crest led 12-9 after the first
quarter and stretched their
lead out to 5 at intermission,
33-28.
As well as both teams played
offensively in the first half, no
one could have imagined the
offensive struggle that the third
quarter would be as each team
would only muster 3 points.
SCC would chip a couple
more points off the Crest lead
in the fourth but it would be
too little, too late.

of Iola attempts to gain position underneath against Lady Bulldog Marah Lutz. Anderson County outscored Iola by 15 points in the second half to pull away for an easy victory.

LEROY – The Crest Lancers
used an impressive first quarter to propel them to a dominating 71-36 victory over Southern
Coffey County to open play for
the season.
Crest raced out to a 28-7 lead
after the first quarter and kept
steadily adding to their advantage through the final three
periods.
Southern Coffey County
trailed 40-15 at halftime and
despite playing better in the
second half, the Lancers still
outscored SCC by 10 over the
final two quarters.
Crest knocked down 10-23
shots (43%) from three-point
range on the night. Conversely
SCC connected on just 1 of 19
(5%).
Amazingly enough that
wasnt even the most impressive shooting stat line on the
evening. Crest missed just 4
shots from inside the threepoint line on the night. They
connected on 81% (17-21) of
their 2-point attempts on the
night and also knocked down 4
of 5 free throw attempts.
Kobey Miller led 11 different
Lancers scorers with 25 points.
Miller connected on 5 of 12
three-pointers on the night and
5-7 from inside the arc to pace
the Lancers. Miller also led the
Lancers with 9 rebounds.
Zach Beckmon and Tyson
Hermreck scored 11 and 10
points respectively to join
Miller as the only players to
reach double figures on the
night.
Hermreck added 5 rebounds
and 6 blocks. Jacquez Coleman
led all Lancers with 7 assists.

Offensive struggles doom Lady
Vikings in loss to Council Grove
RICHMOND – An opening season scoring drought that lasted
more than a quarter was far
too much to overcome for the
Central Heights Lady Vikings
in a lopsided 46-23 loss to
Council Grove in the season
opener for both teams.
Behind a solid defensive
effort and some struggles that
were self-inflicted, the Vikings
trailed 10-0 after the first quarter but rebounded nicely in the
second quarter to cut the halftime deficit to 16-9.

Despite the loss, head coach
Doug North thought execution
was good at times but not consistent enough to be competitive and sees things that are
correctable.
We executed our offense
pretty well at times, North
said, but we either missed
layups or had passes deflected
that would have led to layups.
If we capitalize on those opportunities it could have been a
much closer game.

RICHMOND – After a back and
forth battle throughout, the
Central Heights Vikings went
cold in overtime on their way
to a gut-wrenching 55-49 defeat
to the hands of Council Grove
to open the season on Friday
night at home.
The Vikings jumped out to
a 4-point halftime advantage,
21-17, after leading after the
first quarter 11-8.
Council Grove chipped a
point off their deficit in the
third before outscoring the
Vikings in the fourth quarter
13-10 to knot the game at 46 at
the end of intermission.
The Vikings struggled in
overtime as their only score of
the period was a three-pointer
by Jared Crawford.
Crawford along with Alex
Cannady led the way for the
Vikings with 11 points each on
the night.
Central Heights lived outside the three-point line on the
evening. The Vikings knocked
down 11 three-pointers, three
each by Crawford, Cannady
and Bralen Bowker.
On the flip side this led to the
Vikings just being 0-2 on free

Bulldogs let halftime lead slip
away in disappointing loss
GARNETT – It was a wrenching
loss in head coach Daniel Rays
debut leading the Anderson
County Bulldog boys team as
they dropped a 46-40 decision
to Iola, but no doubt an experience they will learn from moving forward in the season.
Anderson County kicked the
season off well by bolting out
to an early 7-2 lead midway
through the first period. Iola
would cut slightly into that
deficit in the final half of the
first quarter to cut the Bulldogs
lead down to 17-13.
ACs defense was key in the
second quarter, limiting Iola
to just 7 points in the second
quarter but due to struggles of
their own only added to their
lead slightly heading into intermission leading 26-20.
Iola picked up the pace in the
third quarter and turned their
6-point deficit into a 3-point
advantage with a dominating
17-8 advantage in the period.
The Bulldogs got the lead
down to as little as 3 points late,
43-40 with just under 24 seconds
remaining, but just couldnt get
the stop late that they desperately needed.
Sophomore Derek Rockers
led Anderson County with 13
points in the game.

ditures districts have made
with the additional funding
to stabilize and repair the
challenges created during
this eight-year period, as
they refer to it. There is nary
a mention of targeting at-risk
students, which was supposed
to be the focus of the additional
money. Apparently, these additional hundreds of millions of
dollars shouldnt count toward
improved results because it is
basically make-up money for
all those years of being underfunded as the education establishment likes to call it.
I watched the Gannon deliberations pretty closely over the
years and I dont recall once
the plaintiff lawyers telling
the Supreme Court that the
schools needed more money to
increase salaries or administrative staff. As I recall, the
Supreme Court made its decision to force the Legislature
into providing more money to
education based on targeting
that money to those who were
not being adequately educated,
to paraphrase the justices.
KASBs report is yet another example of the disconnect
between how the Supreme
Court bases its decisions and

Happy Birthday, Kansas! Student photo contest now accepting entries
Third grader Katherine
Bartel of Wichita photographed James in the Pasture
last year. Her photo showed
a boy peering over a fence
while cattle operations were
in progress, the vivid blue
sky with puffy clouds overhead. She received first
place in her category in the
Happy Birthday, Kansas!
Student Photo Contest and
won an iPad for her work.
Katherines was one of 402
contest entries and she was
among 24 students to receive
awards.
Students are once again
invited to enter their photographs in the Happy Birthday,
Kansas! photo contest, and

prizes. This years theme is
Going to School in Kansas.
First place winners in each
grade from first to 12th will
receive iPads; second place
awards in each grade are
Kindles. These photographs
from students across the state
contribute to the pictorial
history of Kansas. They will
be preserved by the Kansas
Historical Society.
L. W. Halbe was an early
20th century student photog-
5×5 Beckman
rapher who made a similar
impact in his community.
With a small box camera,
the 15-year-old captured photos of Dorrance in Russell
County and left a remarkable
history, that continues to
be preserved at the Kansas
Historical Society. Todays
young photographers can
make similar contributions
by photographing people and
places in their lives.

first through 12th grade
students, is 5 p.m. Friday,
December 20, 2019. Winners

Support fellow Veterans – Volunteer at Crossroads Hospice
LENEXA Members of the
military share a common bond:
to serve with honor, defend our
country and bring aid to those
in need. Now Veterans have
an opportunity to give back
to their fellow Veterans in a
special way.
Crossroads Hospice &
Palliative Care in Lenexa is
seeking Veterans to volunteer
to help support patients who
are Veterans. At the end of
life, many Veterans face certain physical, psychological,
and spiritual challenges as a
result of their time spent on
active duty, particularly on the
battlefield. By volunteering at
Crossroads, Veterans can lend
support to their fellow compatriots based on their shared
experiences and common bond
of service to our nation.
Crossroads volunteers play
a vital role by providing direct
comfort, companionship and a
helping hand to terminally-ill
patients and their families in
their homes, and in assisted
living and nursing facilities.
They may share their favorite
activities, like playing music,
reading, card games, arts
and crafts, or they may bring
their pets to visit. Volunteers
can also help by running
small errands and providing
much-needed respite for family
members and caregivers.
At Crossroads, we honor
all Veterans, and this is a
great opportunity for them
to volunteer to support their
fellow Veterans at the end of
life by offering companionship and that special Veteran
camaraderie, says Volunteer
Manager Barbara Poe. We
call our Crossroads volunteers
Ultimate Givers because
they give the greatest gift of
their time and gain the satisfaction of knowing they helped
make a fellow Veterans day a
little brighter.
For more information
or to sign up as a volunteer,
contact Barbara Poe at 913850-7500 or Barbara.Poe@
crossroadshospice.com
or
visit CrossroadsHospice.com/
Volunteering.
Before
becoming
a
Crossroads Hospice Ultimate
Giver, participants must
complete an application, TB
skin test, and training session led by members of the
Crossroads team. Potential volunteers must wait a minimum
of one year after the death of
an immediate family member
or loved one before applying.
Volunteers must be at least 16
years old.
Crossroads Hospice &
Palliative Care is committed to being at the forefront
of the hospice care industry,
to continually shape the way
end-of-life care is viewed and
administered. The mission of
Crossroads is to provide highly unique, comprehensive,
and compassionate hospice
services to persons experiencing a life-limiting illness
and to their caregivers. Visit
CrossroadsHospice.com for
more information.

AAA: Safely secure Christmas trees for transport home
It's that time of year when
many Kansans set out in
search of the perfect real
Christmas tree, then haphazardly 'tie one on' a dangerous practice for those who
don't know the ropes, warns
AAA Kansas. Ensuring safety while transporting the
tree should be at the top of
this years Christmas to-do
list.
Data from a AAA survey
indicates that approximately 20 million Americans who
purchased a live Christmas
tree did not properly secure
it to their vehicle on the way
home, increasing the risk of
a crash and serious vehicle
damage caused by dangerous
road debris. Christmas trees
that are not properly secured
are a safety hazard for others
traveling our roadways.
It is important that families take the proper precaution to secure their tree to
the vehicle prior to returning home, said Shawn
Steward,
AAA
Kansas
spokesman. Twine that is
wrapped around trees and
looped through door jambs
or open windows can cause
serious vehicle damage such
as scratched paint, torn door
seals and distorted window
frames damage that could
cost up to $1,500 to repair.
Drivers should never secure
a Christmas tree to the top
of a vehicle without a roof
rack.

the proper and wrong
ways to secure and transport a tree on top of a
vehicle:

review/375671729/42b5a19c97
In addition to the vehicle
damage, Christmas trees
that are not properly secured
are a safety hazard for other
drivers.
"Throwing a tree on a
vehicle and not securing it or
carelessly tying it on could
present a serious road danger if it comes loose and flies
off into traffic," AAA Kansas
Steward said.
According to research
by the AAA Foundation for
Traffic Safety, road debris
(such as a Christmas tree flying off a car) was responsible
for more than 200,000 crashes
nationwide that resulted in
39,000 injuries and 500 deaths
over a four-year period. And,
about two-thirds of debris-related crashes are the result
of improperly secured items
falling from a vehicle.
In Kansas, there are about
150 unsecured load crashes
each year, resulting in an
average of one or two fatalities. In 2017 in Kansas, there
were more than 350 crashes
attributed to road debris or
obstruction.
Fortunately, Christmas
trees can be safely transported, AAA Kansas says, by taking the following steps:
Use the right vehicle. Its
best to transport a Christmas
tree on top of a vehicle
equipped with a roof rack.
However, if you do not have
a roof rack, use the bed of
a pickup truck or an SUV,
van or minivan that can fit
the tree inside with all doors
closed.
Bring proper tools. Bring
strong rope or nylon ratchet straps to secure the tree
to your vehicles roof rack.
Avoid the lightweight twine
offered by many tree lots.
Bring an old blanket and
gloves.
Protect the tree – and
your vehicle. Have the tree
wrapped in netting before
loading it. If netting is
unavailable, secure loose
branches with rope or twine.
Use an old blanket to prevent
paint scratches and protect
the vehicle finish.
Point the trunk towards
the front. Always place the
tree on a roof rack or in a
pickup bed with the bottom
of the trunk facing the front
of the vehicle.
Tie it down. Secure the
tree at its bottom, center and
top. At the bottom, use fixed
vehicle tie-down points and
loop around the trunk above
a lower branch, to prevent
any side-to-side or front-torear movement. The center
and top tie downs should be
installed in a similar manner.
Give it the tug test. Before
you leave the lot, give the
tree several strong tugs from

various directions to make
sure it is secured in place
and will not blow away.
Drive slowly and easily.
Take the back roads, if possible. Higher speeds create
significant airflow that can
damage your Christmas tree
and challenge even the best
tie-down methods.
In addition to the roadway
hazards and vehicle damage
that can result from improperly securing a Christmas
tree when transporting it,
drivers can also face a traffic ticket and hefty fine for
an unsecured load, AAA
Kansas Steward added.
Kansas traffic statute
8-1906(c) states that No person shall operate on any
highway any vehicle with
any load unless such load
and any covering thereon
is securely fastened so as
to prevent the covering or
load from becoming loose,
detached or in any manner
a hazard to other users of the
highway. Violation of this
law is a misdemeanor, with
fine amounts determined by
the courts, likely $75 plus
court costs.
Drivers can prevent injuries and vehicle damage, and
avoid penalties by properly
securing their Christmas
trees to prevent them from
falling off their vehicles,
