Crash at I-35 & U.S. 59
kills trucker, snarls
early commuter traffic
Man climbs from
wreck but cant escape
oncoming semi
BY DANE HICKS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
OTTAWA A New York truck
driver was killed and traffic
snarled at I-35 and U.S. 59 at
the south edge of Ottawa for
hours Friday, forcing local
commuter traffic to re-route
around the area while traffic
investigators dealt with the
situation.
A Kansas Highway Patrol
report said a box truck headed
south on I-35 left the roadway,
over corrected and then flipped
onto its side in the southbound
lanes. Its driver, 30 year-old
Alfred Thomas Williams of
Jonesboro, Ga., climbed from
the cab onto the overturned
truck, it was then struck by a
Freightliner semi driven by
Sulkhdarshan S. Sidhu, 63 of
Grand Island, NY. The semi
plowed through the median
and jacknived, blocking thenorthbound lanes of I-35. The
incident occurred shortly after
5 a.m.
The impact of the collision
threw Williams off the cab of
his wreck and spun the box
truck into a center median
guard rail. Sidhu suffered fatal
injuries and died at the scene.
Williams was taken to Ransom
Memorial Hospital with injuries.
Traffic on I-35 was halted
both ways until the southbound lane could be cleared
and and drivers re-routed to
other exits.
The intersection is heavily
trafficked by commuters leaving Anderson and southern
Frankin counties for jobs in

Shunning plastics
No more Chinese markets
for some plastics means they
go into the trash, landfills
BY DANE HICKS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT New restrictions on
accepting certain types of plastic at the
Anderson County Landfill Recycling
Center has meant more plastic ending
up as landfill waste.
But its all about dollars and cents
and the fact that China, which up until
now has been the main market and destination for U.S. recyclable plastic, is
no longer buying those materials. Until
they resume, or until someone comes
up with a marketable alternative that
makes those plastics valuable again,
the ban on those plastics at recycling
posts all over the U.S. will continue.
As of October the Anderson County
landfill has only accepted #1 Plastics,
sometimes called Pete generally clear
plastics like water bottles and 2-liter
pop bottles and milk jugs. All other
plastics have to be included in customers regular trash and end up as landfill
waste.
We had a lot of questions at first,
said Recycling Coordinator George
Bennett. People were questioning
why we wouldnt accept them any
more.
The Chinese market for recyclables
was based on two factors, according
to an August 2018 Wall Street Journal
article: first, oceanic shippers gave
steep discounts on cargo going back to
China after theyd arrived in the U.S.
filled with Chinese goods to be sold
here, so it was inexpensive to ship plastics and other materials back to China
to be recycles. Also, Chinese industry
had plenty of cheap labor and facilities
to recycle those goods.
But now theres international pressure on China to curb its industrial
pollutants, which means higher costs
in all its factories, and the countrys
increasing standard of living means
its own population is consuming more
goods and producing more trash and
its own recyclables which the nation
has to handle. Thats cut off the desire
by Chinese companies to purchase outside recyclables.
The ripple effect from that move
has put the top two U.S. recycling companies, Waste Management, Inc., and
Republic Services, Inc., in a financial
bind and threatened the profitability
of its other lines of recyclable goods.
Some companies have found other foreign buyers in Maylasia and India and
other countries, but they dont ship
as much product out to the U.S. as
China, which means those back-haul
discounts arent offered to those countries. Those higher costs eventually get
passed along to their customer recySEE PLASTICS ON PAGE 2A
Grants pay costs of new gear for local firefighters
TOPEKA Local firefighters in Anderson County will
receive some $21,000 in grants
for new personal equipment
under the provisions of a grant
from the Office of the State Fire
Marshal.
Anderson
County
Emergency
Management
Director J.D. Mersman said
the grant provides $13,120 to
the countys rural fire department for five sets of turnout
gear, and the City of Garnetts
department received $7,872 for
three sets of the gear.
Mersman said turnout
gear includes a firefighters
helmet, Nomex hood, jacket,
pants, gloves and boots virtually everything a fireman
wears in responding to an incident except the breathing air
pack, which cost around $7,000
apiece.
According to a press release
from the state fire marshals
office, the local departments
were two of 70 volunteer
and part-time fire departments across the state which
received funds this year
through the Kansas Firefighter
Recruitment and Safety Grant
Program. The grants are used
for equipment and in some
cases for the start-up of Junior
Firefighter programs and
physical costs for firefighters
with no insurance or ability to
be reimbursed by their department.
The program was made
possible with the 2018 State of
Kansas budget passed by the
state Legislature. Last year,
36 departments were awarded
grant funds with the previous
grant budget of $200,000. The
OSFM was able to award grant
funds to nearly twice as many
departments this year, with
ter, passenger Teresa Yoder, collided with another vehicle driven
by Shirley Wright, also of Garnett. All three were hospitalized and
Wright was transferred to a Kansas City hospital by air ambulance.
She was reported in stable condition Saturday.
Watkins opposes
Pelosi as Speaker
BY DANE HICKS
WASHINGTON, D.C. Kansas
2nd District Congressman
Steve Watkins joined more
than half of the U.S. House
of Representatives Thursday
in not voting for California
Democrat
N a n c y
Pelosi

regain her
position
as House
Speaker,
as
newly-elected
Democrats
Watkins
took their
seats to tip
control of the House to their
party.
Democrats won control
last fall by unseating 40 sitting Republicans in congressional districts nationwide,
but Pelosi, who lost the
speakership in 2010 when
Republicans won the House
during Barack Obamas first
term as president, had to
wheel and deal with rebels
on her own side of the aisle to
gather enough votes to win.

All told, Pelosi won 220 out
of 435 possible votes. They
hold a 235-199 advantage over
Republicans in the House. In
the U.S. Senate Republicans
gained seats in the fall, netting 53 seats to Democrats
45 with two Independents,
who typically caucus with the
Democrats.
In a statement Thursday,
Watkins, who won the Kansas
2nd District which includes
Anderson County last fall,
said the message from voters
as he campaigned led him to a
clear decision on the vote.
As I crisscrossed Kansas
Second Congressional District
over the past year, there
was a reoccurring theme
among both Republicans
and Democrats, Watkins
said. They did not want to
see Nancy Pelosi serving as
Speaker of the House again.
Watkins said he cast his vote
with those voters in mind.

Southern Star targets
January 2020 for project

An Anderson County rural fireman calls in information from a 2016
fire near Welda. Officials hope funds for new equipment will help
local departments recruit members.
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
WELDA Company officials
for Southern Star Central
Gas Pipeline confirmed the
timetable last week for a $141
million pipeline construction project planned through
Franklin and Anderson counties.
Tyler McClure, a spokesman for Southern Star based
in Owensboro, Ky., said
Thursday the project was
expected to begin early next
year.
Pending approval from the
Federal Energy Regulatory
Commission, construction is
estimated to begin January
2020 and will be completed
in early November 2020,
McClures statement said. He
said other construction on
facilities associated with the
new pipeline would begin in
February 2021.
The
overall
project
includes abandoning two
30-plus mile sections of narrower pipeline now in service, and replacing them with
a single 36-inch line that will
connect pumping stations in
Ottawa and Welda. The abandoned lines will most like be
left in place and not extricated.

the funding to provide safety
equipment. Without new equipment provided by the recruiting fire department, potential
volunteers are faced with not
only donating their time but
also providing their own safety
gear, sharing gear with others,
or doing without.
The release said there is
also a proven increase in cancer diagnoses for firefighters,
which can be caused by prolonged exposure to carcinogens, particulates and biohazards. The proper gear, regular
cleaning of that gear and equipment, along with preventative
healthcare is crucial for a firefighters health and well-being.
It is simply unacceptable to
ask Kansans, not only to volunteer their time as first responders in smaller communities,
but to also sacrifice their safety
by not giving them the tools
they need to protect and serve
their communities as volunteer
firefighters.

A promise for the
here and now
The Book of Genesis opens
with the following statement. In
the beginning God created the
heavens and the earth. There
is no attempt to prove the existence of God. God is self-existent, that is he is able to sustain
himself. This is foreign to us as
we need oxygen, food, water and
many other things to sustain life.
Simply put there is nothing in
front of God. God was not created.
When Moses was told to go to
Egypt to deliver the people from
slavery Moses asked God this
question at the burning bush.
Suppose I go to the Israelites
and say to them, The God of your
fathers has sent me to you, and
they ask me , What is his name?
Then what shall I tell them?
(Exodus 3:13) God said to Moses,
I AM WHO I AM. This is what
you say to the Israelites: I AM
has sent me to you.
The name in all its forms proclaims his eternal, self-sustaining, sovereign reality- the supernatural mode of existence that
the sign of the burning bush had
signified. The bush that was not
consumed was Gods illustration
of his own inexhaustible life and
the manner of his existence. The
Bible clearly illustrates for us
that God is all powerful, all knowing, ever present and unchangeable. As finite human beings,
limited by time, space and matter, we possess none of the attributes. God is infinite, not limited
by anything.
In Exodus 34:6-7, God speaking to Moses concerning his
own actions says, The LORD,
the LORD, the compassionate
and gracious God, slow to anger,
abounding in love and faithfulness, maintaining love to thou-

When the curtain in the temple was torn in two at the crucifixion of Jesus we were granted a
way to God through the atoning
death of Jesus Christ. However it
is a narrow way and requires us
to receive Jesus as our personal
Savior. Jesus tells Philip in John
14:9, Dont you know me, Philip,
even after I have been among
you such a long time? Anyone
who has seen me has seen the

When we begin a personal

OPINION
Lets make vacations great again
Are you a rock-bellied Red Stater tired of
spending your entertainment dollars in liberal
bastions that elect socialist-leaning neerdo-wells? Are you anxious for a list of places
where your hard-earned R&R dollars can go to
benefit voters more akin to your political persuasion?
Many of us have come to realize wed prefer
to support #MAGA believers by making our
time off this year a Red State Vacation.
Heck, in a lot of cases its a simple safety
issue. We were barely 12 minutes into the
New Year last week when Chicago, where
Democrats have voted early and often for
three generations, logged its first incident of
gun violence of 2019. A 12 year-old boy was
looking out a second story residential window
when a bullet whizzed through the glass and
hit him in the hand. Four more shootings
would follow on New Years Day, miraculously all non-fatal.
The thugs had pretty much taken a holiday
to ring in the New Year in the Windy City.
The prior day New Years Eve nine people were shot and two murdered within the
Chicago metro area. But all in all, 2018 was a
banner year for homicides in the city 561 for
the year (1.53 killings a day) compared to 660
in 2017 and 770 in 2016.
So forget those fabulous weekend flight
deals to Chicago, or the smog-ridden
Hollywierd beckoning of the Peoples Republic
of California, or the Cheech & Chong intellectualism of Denver or the Colorado Mountains.
Say goodbye to the overpriced calamari and
tomato basil appetizers at those vanilla latte
Johnson County hives where RINOs plot
Democrat governorships and socialist takeovers of the 3rd Congressional District. Why
not spend your recreation dollars in places
where people vote like you do?
Consider for instance Bedford County,
Tenn., which went 75 percent Trump, 22 percent Clinton in 2016. Theres the Champion
Run Golf Course in Shelbyville and the
Tennessee Walking Horse Museum, and the
jam-packed annual Moon Pie Festival featuring a slice of the worlds largest Moon Pie!
Las Animas, Colo., flipped from Democrat
to Republican in 2016, 55 percent Trump to
39 percent Clinton. Theres not much Red in
REVIEW COMMENTARY
DANE HICKS, Publisher
Colorado, but it this little pocket youll find
tons of Santa Fe Trail history with Bents Old
Fort and Boggsville, both historic trail points.
Plus, youll find the best guacamole and salsa
in Southern Colorado at Carmens Restaurant.
Dont forget Hooker County, Neb., whose
population of 736 souls dont see many visitors, but which mustered 86 percent of
their vote for Trump and 10 for Clinton. The
Sandhills are cool, and you can float the
Middle Loup River. Mullen has a new disc golf
course, and the Hondo Lanes bowling alley is
newly renovated.
Calhoun County, MI., also flipped Blue to
Red in 2016, with 54 percent voting Trump to
41 for Clinton. Battle Creek boasts the Binder
Zoo with some 400 acres and more than 600
specimens on exhibit. Dont forget the Fort
Custer State Recreation area, a former WWII
training ground now a 3,300 acre nature park
with hiking and horse trails, river beach areas
and more.
And lets not forget Scott County, Ks.,
whose stalwart Republican corps voted 85
percent Trump to 11 percent whats-hername. In Scott City, culture, natural wonder
and science abound with the El Quartelejo
Museum, Jerry Thomas and Keystone galleries, Monument Rocks and Spender Flight
and Education Center and the really cool
Majestic Theater Restaurant.
So take heart, monied Republican believers
divert your dollars from the clutches of those
traditional loony liberal strongholds, and lets
Make Vacations Great Again.

Disappointing that Anderson County has
recently taken a step backwards in the area of
recycling. Anderson County no longer accepts
#2 – #7 plastics at the recycling center. This is
reportedly due to an inability to move these
recyclables out of the county. Some of my
Anderson County friends have always argued
that recycling in Anderson County meant throwing their beer cans out the car window in the
same area so the homeless could easily find
them. I had just convinced these environmental
enemies that they should save all of their recyclables and deliver them to a collection center
when Anderson County decided to refuse to
take plastics. Now these prolific plastic polluters
argue that if recycling isnt important to the
Romney strains for relevance with WP Op-Ed
Mitt Romney hadnt even taken his official seat in the senate and already he was
rustling Washington elitist tail feathers with
a contemptuous critique (in op-ed form) of
President Donald Trump over the holiday
break, published in the swamp-infested
Washington Post of all places.
Romney screeched on New Years Day
at The Post, It is well known that Donald
Trump was not my choice for the Republican
presidential nomination. After he became the
nominee, I hoped his campaign would refrain
from resentment and name-calling. It did not.
When he won the election, I hoped he would
rise to the occasion. His early appointments
of Rex Tillerson, Jeff Sessions, Nikki Haley,
Gary Cohn, H.R. McMaster, Kelly and Mattis
were encouraging. But, on balance, his conduct over the past two years, particularly his
actions last month, is evidence that the president has not risen to the mantle of the office…
As expected Trump had his own reply
for Romneys bold complaints (more on this
below). But its telling how Mitt apparently
felt compelled to publish such barbed antiTrump venom just days ahead of his own
swearing-in as a senator from Utah.
Mitt assumed his place as the humble
junior senator from Utah. In the process
Romney becomes one of a hundred, not the
big cheese like the president. Located well
down the leadership food chain hell scrap for
survival among colleagues with more seniority and experience with the rigmarole of official Washington. Why pay a failed presidential candidate any more than his due? If Mitt
needs advice on how to be relevant after being
knocked off his lofty national perch, maybe he

should go windsurfing with John Kerry.
The truth is, Romney will now likely fade
into the background, pursued only by media
reporters hankering for a good quote or
searching for the next GOPer to replace the
dearly departed (from Washington) Senators
Jeff Flake and Bob Corker as intraparty
Trump foils. If Romney actually means what
he says — and seeks to advance good policies -his best bet is to join with Trump rather than
nitpicking the president on appearance and
style.
All the notables Mitt mentioned in his piece
are now gone from the Trump administration.
All clashed with Trumps leadership panache
and core beliefs and the president got rid of
them (or in Haleys case, its unclear why she
left). Why? They forgot or ignored the fact
Trump was the man elected by the American
people and therefore the one constitutionally
tasked with accepting the duties as commander in chief and executing the nations laws.
Simply put, if these people (no matter how
distinguished) werent doing their jobs, why
keep them around?
Romney wasnt finished with his pontificating lecture, further writing, As a nation,
we have been blessed with presidents who
have called on the greatness of the American
spirit. With the nation so divided, resentful
and angry, presidential leadership in qualities of character is indispensable. And it is in
this province where the incumbents shortfall
has been most glaring.
OUCH. Mitt shouldve expected this particular passage would draw blood and a tasty
Trumpian retort, and it did. Trump tweeted
back, Here we go with Mitt Romney, but so
fast! Question will be, is he a Flake? I hope
not. Would much prefer that Mitt focus on
Border Security and so many other things
where he can be helpful. I won big, and he
didnt. He should be happy for all Republicans.
Be a TEAM player & WIN!
Precisely. Romneys prose was likely
scribed by the finest of establishmentarian
writers while Trumps rejoinder was vintage
Trump. The difference explains why Trump
is so revered by the GOP base and Mitts mug
is carved into the Mt. Rushmore of the ruling
class. It also suggests why Trump overcame
his enormous personal foibles and still won
#NeverTrumpers like Mitt Romney wont
ever get onboard with the conservative agenda. The swamp dwelling ruling elites are too
preoccupied with preserving their own power
and playing nice with the opposition to do
the right thing. Trump will be Trump — and
hell win in the end. Viguerie
Trump should chill about the stock market
Donald Trump may watch the stock market
more closely than any day trader.
For a president who underlined the increasing importance of working-class whites to the
GOP coalition and who trampled so much
bipartisan economic orthodoxy during

connect.
In fact, no president
in memory has so
publicly staked himself to the market. Trump
has, in contrast, paid relatively little public
attention to wage growth, which is the measure that more closely tracks with his particular political project (especially considering
that his election prospects may again depend
on Pennsylvania, Michigan and Wisconsin).
The market clearly acts for Trump like poll
numbers or TV ratings — immediate, easily
digestible feedback on his perceived worth, or
that of his economic stewardship. This isnt
how he should view it, and it was shortsighted
to be so boastful about the good times.
The stock market goes up and down. Trump
didnt have sole responsibility for the run-up
in the market after his election (although
taking the regulatory boot off the economy
helped) and doesnt deserve the blame for the
downward trend now (although the contention with China and general sense of chaos
dont help).
NATIONAL COMMENTARY
RICH LOWRY, King Features Syndicate
Trump has lashed out at Federal Reserve
Chairman Jerome Powell for being too tight
on interest rates, and he might be right. But
the president should be less beholden to the
gyrations of the market.
Wages would be a worthy new object of his
attention, and itd be better if wages didnt
often take a back seat to the stock market and
GDP growth. When Trump hears complaints
from employers that they are having trouble
hiring, his answer should be: Good. Pay your
workers more.
On the other hand, the political downside
of focusing on wages is twofold: Like the
stock market, it is a metric that the president
doesnt have direct control over, and unlike
the stock market, it hasnt mostly enjoyed
strong upward momentum over the past couple of decades.
Oren Cass of the Manhattan Institute and
author of the thought-provoking new book
The Once and Future Worker argues that
the point of comparison shouldnt be whether
wages are better than they were in post-crisis
2010, but how they are doing compared with
business-cycle peaks in 2007, 2000 and 1989.
Here they are lagging.
Wages are ultimately related to productivity growth, which has been growing more
slowly than in the golden age of the American
economy in the mid-20th century.
Robert Atkinson of the Information
Technology & Innovation Foundation argues
forcefully that policymakers should make
fostering productivity growth their foremost
goal.
For his part, Cass suggests a worker-friendly, longer-term agenda of reforming education
to put more emphasis on the interests of
students who wont go on to get a four-year
college degree; changing our immigration system to keep the lower end of the labor market
as tight as possible; and exploring innovative
models of unionization to give workers more
leverage.
Maybe these particular initiatives arent
to the liking of the White House, but a working-class Republican should have an agenda
very specifically tailored to the interests of
workers. Alternately bragging and complaining about the stock market isnt a substitute.
Rich Lowry is editor of the National Review.
Anderson County Commissioners it shouldnt be
important to them. The Lake Region Solid Waste
Management Plan, revised September 2018, states
that Anderson, Coffey, Franklin, Lynn, Miami,
and Osage counties are cooperating to improve
waste management. Coffey and Franklin counties
are still able to accept #2 – #7 plastics. Possibly,
Anderson County could confer with the other
counties in their waste management plan and find
a way to keep recyclables out of the landfill and
out of the burn barrels.
Editors Note: The caller commenting on the
Electoral College will need to call back and be
more brief.
Theres so many of the county boys parked
along gravel roads they must be part of the government shut down. The WPA should probably
put them to work building the wall.
We should start off this new year without
judging each other. I know thats hard to do but
most of the time we judge before we even know
anybody. This is true when youre working with
children, we judge them by their parents. Thats
not fair. Its us when were in the community and
see someone and just assume theyre not as good
as us. We need to stop that becuase it really is rubbing off on our children. Thank you and Happy
New Year.
So in the first few hours after these new
Democrat congressmen take office and take over
the House chamber, we have them spewing vulgarities and given a pass for it by the media, we
have that crazy old bat Pelosi trying to do away
with the Electoral College, we have them introducing a bill for a 70 percent federal tax hike and
still stopping the Republicans from building the
wall which most Americans say is needed. Great
job Democrats. And theyre only getting started.

DIGGING UP THE PAST
Every year Im blessed by
so many people assisting me
in one way or another with
my archaeological related projects.
The year 2018 was no exception.
My first two thank yous
never change, my Lord and
Savior Jesus Christ and my
beautiful wife of 61 years, Kay
Roeckers.
Next is Dane Hicks and his
wonderful staff at the Anderson
County Review for making it
possible for me to write and
you to read this and all my columns throughout the year.
Thank you, to all the landowners this past year who gave
me permission to do archaeological projects on your land.
Without you I would have no
where to go or anything to
write about.
There are all the Kansas
Historical/Archaeology staff,
personnel and KAA members
which I enjoyed working for
and with during 2018 Training
School and on several special
projects.
Then there are all of you
special people who gave me so
much historical data, so many
ideas and tips, lots of advice
and many many words of
encouragement.
As I begin to list those who
have touched my life in some
way this past year, please let
me know if you feel you were

More good news at the gas pumps
WICHITA Further falling
prices at the gas pumps mean
Kansas motorists continue to
get good news when they fill
up their tanks. At $1.93/gallon,

gas price is now 31 cents lower
than the national average and

has fallen
steadily for about the past three
months, is now 15 percent
lower than this time last year.
Despite the recent busy
holiday travel period, gasoline
demand has remained low,
while supply is still plentiful in
the market, said AAA Kansas
spokesman Shawn Steward.
The result is great news for
motorists, who get to enjoy the
cheap prices at the pumps.
Steward noted that two
Kansas metro areas are among
the Top 50 cheapest gas prices
in America this week. Wichita,
at $1.85/gallon, checked in
with the 34th lowest gas prices among larger metro areas.
Kansas City, Kan. ($1.88) is
44th lowest.
Of the 10 Kansas cities regularly highlighted by AAA
Kansas (see chart below),
seven registered average prices under $2/gallon. All except
Salina, which rose two cents,
experienced price declines
in the past week. The largest price drops were seen in
Garden City (-8 cents), Hays (-6)
and Emporia (-5).
According to AAA Kansas,
this weeks Kansas gas price
extremes are:
HIGH:
Elkhart
(Morton
County) $2.50
LOW: Galena (Cherokee
County) $1.72
National Perspective
The latest Energy Information
Administration (EIA) data registers gasoline demand at 8.6
million b/d for the week ending
December 28 the lowest level
on record since February 2017.
Despite record motor vehicle
travel for the holiday, demand
was down nearly 900,000 bbl,
suggesting that demand this
winter could be lower than
expected.
Todays national gas price
average is $2.24 and has
declined for 12 weeks in a row.
The national average is threecents cheaper on the week,
20-cents cheaper than last
month and 25-cents cheaper
year-over-year.
As the global crude market
continues to be oversupplied,
oil prices are dropping, continuing last weeks trend, said
AAA Kansas Steward. This is
good news for motorists filling
up at the pump.

County
officials
say
theyll train additional county employees to operate the
countys Code Red emergency phone notification system,
after apparent confusion about
who was actually supposed
to operate the system. The
question of who would actually operate Code Red, which
interfaces with the countys
911 emergency phone system
to make up to thousands of
phone calls for immediate
notification of emergencies,
became an issue at the county
commission meeting several
weeks ago.

Anderson Countys computer systems administrator
told county officials Monday
the newly purchased AS 400
computer system is not currently Year 2000 compliant,
and submitted two software
upgrades designed to rectify
the millennium problem. The
Year 2000 problem has been
much discussed in the press
and computer arena. The issue
has to do with the dating system in the operations software
of many mainframe computer
systems which use a two-digit
number to designate the year.

Lady Lancers rally from early
Crest blows past Marmaton Valley
deficit to down Marmaton Valley
BY KEVIN GAINES
BY KEVIN GAINES
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
MORAN – The Crest Lancers
found themselves in an early
hole but behind the strength
of a strong second quarter
they rallied for a 43-38 victory Friday night at Marmaton
Valley.
Marmaton Valley started
hot and led 13-8 after the first
quarter.
The visiting Lancers controlled the second quarter, 14-2,
to take a 22-15 lead into intermission.
It would be Marmaton
Valleys turn to make a run
during the third quarter. They
nearly erased the 7 point halftime deficit, trailing 27-25 heading into the fourth quarter.
Both teams would score
their most points in the quarter in a back and forth fourth
period with Crest holding the
slight upper hand to pull out
the 5 point victory.
R. Godderz led all scorers
with 14 points.
A trio of Lady Lancers hit
double figures in rebounds.
Viking boys win again
BY KEVIN GAINES
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
COTTONWOOD FALLS – The
Central Heights Vikings used
a strong first quarter to help
them down the host Chase
County Bulldogs 61-51.
Early on it was a back and
forth contest that saw the
Vikings holding a slim 12-11
lead over halfway through the
first quarter.
The Vikings would take control the rest of the period, going
on a 8-1 run to close out the
period and take a 20-12 lead
into the second quarter.
The rest of the way the two
teams went back and forth
throughout but the Vikings
kept the Bulldogs just out of
reach the rest of the way.
On numerous occasions
Chase County would cut the
lead to 6 to see the Vikings
answer and push the lead back
towards double digits.
Bowker led a trio of Vikings
in double figures with 16
points, followed by Cubit with
12 and Sommer with 10 points.

Lady Vikings lose big
BY KEVIN GAINES
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
COTTONWOOD FALLS – It
wasnt pretty offensively for
the Central Heights Lady
Vikings and the scoreboard
reflected their struggles in a
47-19 loss on the road Friday
night to Chase County.
Chase County limited the
Vikings to just a pair of points
in both the first and third periods while scoring 11 and 19
respectively in those periods to
do most of their damage on the
evening.
The Lady Vikings faced an
insurmountable 44-11 deficit
heading into the fourth quarter.
On the evening, Roehl led
the Vikings with 8 points. No
other Viking would score more
than 4 points on the night.

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
MORAN – The Crest Lancers
kicked off 2019 in fashion
with a dominating 54-21 victory Friday night on the road
against Marmaton Valley.
While Crest played well in
the first half taking a 23-8 lead
into intermission, it was the
third quarter that completely blew things open for the
Lancers.
Both teams would exactly
double their first half outputs
as Crest jumped out to a 30
point lead, leading 46-16 heading into the fourth period.
Hayden Hermreck paced
Crest and outscored Marmaton
Valley all by himself scoring
28 points. Hermreck knocked
down 2 of 3 three-pointers and
all 6 of his free throws while
also pulling down 11 rebounds
to pace the Lancers.
Zach Beckmon was the only
other Crest player in double
figures with 11 points and 6
rebounds.
Ethan Prasko pulled down
10 rebounds and chipped in
with 3 points.
Defensively the Lancers
put the clamps on Marmaton
Valleys offense as they con-
nected on just 6 of 32 attempts,
including just 2-11 from threepoint land.
Crest completely dominated Marmaton Valley on the
boards, out rebounding them
39-15.

While youre fresh and
energized for the New Year

run a few traps and see what
good ideas we can prepare
for in a few quick motions
right now.
1) Clean up your mess: You
sprinted all through the holidays dropping things where
ever they landed and telling yourself youd tidy it up
later and then you covered up that thing with the
next thing that you dropped
where it landed. Take an
hour or an afternoon and
clean up your work area
your desk, your file cabinets,
your bills and receivables. I
hate to admit this but I find
the coolest and most motivational things when I clean
my desk like all those little
plastic calculators Id forgotten I had!
2) Embrace tax time: Get
a jump-start compiling your
numbers and closing your
books to file your income
taxes, and do it with a special focus determine
where, what months and
why certain months were
better than others, and look
for anything thats notable.
Look for the big stuff was

Richmond United Methodist
Women has old-fashioned theme
Fifteen members and guests
of Richmond United Methodist
Women enjoyed an OldFashioned Christmas theme for
its December luncheon-meeting.
Beautiful table decorations
were provided by Lorene
Stockard.
Pastor
Lenise
Leddings gave the meal blessing and closing prayer.
Cathy Parsons read several
verses of the song Star of the
East for devotions then played
it on a CD by early-day cowboy
singer Slim Whitman.
Various Christmas keepsakes the women brought covered a focus table, including old
holiday sheet music and 33RPM
records, Coke Santa Clauses,
a 1944 chalk drawing made
for parents, a photo of Gus
Benus playing Santa Clause
on Richmonds main street in
about 1960 with Bob Brown,
A. O. Sigler, Frieda Peters and
others identified, a Star of the
East to represent the song, and
a very old nativity scene which
was borrowed from Richmond
Community Museum.
The history of how six
Christmas carols were written
was given by Pat Vining, followed by everyone singing the
songs. The women shared some
nostalgic Christmas memories
of family traditions, gifts they
received or gave when young,
and similar between sets of
singing.
One of the guests, Donna
Fernandez,
told
about
Christmas in Norco, CA, where
she lived for 20 years. Norco is
called Horse Town USA and its
motto is city living in a rural
atmosphere. City ordinances
require that buildings reflect a
Western theme.
I always thought living
there was the next best thing to
being on Grandpas farm near
Richmond, said Donna.
One side of every street
in Norco is a horse trail and
businesses have hitching posts.

Lawsuit wins student loan
forgiveness for more than
1,000 Kansas students
TOPEKA More than 1,000
Kansas students will receive
$2.1 million in student loan forgiveness under the terms of a
settlement reached today with
Career Education Corporation
(CEC),
Kansas
Attorney
General Derek Schmidt said.
CEC, a for-profit education
company based in Illinois, currently offers primarily online
courses through American
InterContinental University
and
Colorado
Technical
University. CEC has closed or
phased out many of its schools
over the past 10 years.
A total of 1,077 Kansans are
eligible for student loan debt
relief for a total amount of
$2,142,116.
CEC agrees to forgo any and
all efforts to collect amounts
owed by former students living
in the states participating in
the agreement.
After receiving numerous
complaints from students and
a critical report on for-profit
education by the U.S. Senates
Health, Education, Labor and
Pensions Committee, a group
of attorneys general, including AG Schmidt, launched
an investigation into CEC in
January 2014. The attorneys
general alleged that CEC pressured its employees to enroll
students and engaged in unfair
and deceptive practices. These
practices included making misleading statements or failing
to disclose information to prospective students on total costs,
transferability of credits, program offerings, job placement
rates, and other topics.
As a result, some students
could not obtain professional
licensure and incurred debts
that they could not repay nor
discharge.
The agreement with attorneys general in 48 states plus
the District of Columbia mandates added disclosures to students, including a new interactive online financial disclosure
tool; bars misrepresentations
to prospective students; prohibits enrollment in unaccredited programs; and institutes
an extended period when new
students can withdraw with no
financial obligation.
Nationwide, the agreement
requires the for-profit college
company to forgive $493,687,220
in outstanding loan debt held
by more than 66,000 former students.
Our investigation revealed
that CEC lured prospective students into its programs and that
many students left the program
with unfulfilled promises and
sometimes tremendous debt,
Schmidt said. This agreement
addresses concerns about the
companys business practices
and relieves many Kansas students of debt.
As part of the agreement,
CEC does not admit to the conduct alleged by attorneys general.
CEC has agreed to forgo collection of debts owed to it by
students who either attended
a CEC institution that closed
before Jan. 1, 2019, or whose
final day of attendance at AIU
or CTU occurred on or before
Dec. 31, 2013.
Eligible students will receive
a letter from CEC within 60
days advising them that CEC
will no longer attempt to collect
student debt forgiven under the
terms of this settlement.
A copy of the agreement is
available at http://bit.ly/2CMrXWP.
