Samsel: God told me to
5th Dist. Rep pleads not
guilty to three charges,
says he was at wits end
BY DANE HICKS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
OTTAWA God told him to.
Thats the reasoning 5th District
Kansas House Republican Mark
Samsel gave investigators as to why
he pushed a Wellsville High School
art student into a wall and then kicked
him in the testicles in an April 28
classroom ruckus that landed the
two-term representative in Franklin
County District Court facing battery
charges.
Samsel pled not guilty to three misdemeanors in connection with the
incident and is scheduled for a July
12 conference hearing. Hes presently
free on bond, among whose provisions
are a mental health evaluation with
the results to be presented to the court
by early June, according to court documents.
Samsels bizarre behavior as a
substitute teacher in the Wellsville
district was recorded on a number
of student phone videos, and along
with the battery charges resulted in
his firing from the USD 289 substitute list and a ban from school sports
and activities. A probable cause affidavit for his arrest obtained by the
Review detailed interviews between
a Franklin County Sheriffs detective,
and a Wellsville
police officer, the
minor student and
Samsel regarding
the incident.
According to the
affidavit, Samsel
told the investigator the student in
Samsel question was being
disruptive in the
art class along with
other students, who had him at wits
end before the incident occurred. He
described a scene in which the students were comfortable with him and
began joking around with him, but
that he had threatened one student
in particular several times that hed
call the principal on him if he didnt
behave. Samsel said he never called
the principal, and that the student
in question continued to misbehave.
Samsel said he raised his voice at one
point such that another teacher came
into the room and asked if everything
was okay. He said the student calmed
down until the other teacher left, but
then resumed his bad behavior.
At one point Samsel told the detective the student stepped into him
or bumped him, at which time he
grasped the student by the shoulders
and pushed him against the wall.
I would honest to God never do
anything to hurt him, the report
quotes Samsel as saying. He said hed
heard the student had a bruise on his
back and that maybe he bruises softly, but God works in mysterious
ways.
Samsel told the officer eventually
the student continued to confront him
and bumped him again.
Mark then demonstrated a kick,
the report says, and stated I barely did this. And I told him actions
have consequences, and Im not joking
around.
The report says Samsel denied

Area tops 8 inches

BY DANE HICKS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT Two weeks of
soggy weather locally meant
strike one and two for Garnetts
planned Air Fair, the cancellation of Thursdays Celebration
of Service for the citys Patriotic
Banner Program, rescheduled
indoor high school graduations
and the kibosh to any number of
other outdoor family gatheirngs
in the area that usually trumpet
the arrival of Spring in Eastern
Kansas.
Garnett Airport Manager Pat
Schettler said last week the citys
Air Fair event might be rescheduled for a date this fall.
Now, with more than 8 inches having floated the rain gauge
at the airport for the month of
May, and Sunday/Monday showers forecast prior to the Reviews
early holiday deadline Friday,
locals are wondering just when
exactly the spigot will shut off.
Average rainfall for May comes
in about 5.4 inches, and the total
recorded in May 2020 notched
6.42. Schettler said last week hed
totaled 8.31 inches through the

annual Memorial address held yesterday. Memorial events were
also held in Scipio, Colony and at the Garnett VFW Post. More
than 300 flags make up the annual cemetery display, all donated
by families in honor of a local veteran.

his approach to public safety
and the Second Amendment and
rights of millions of law-abiding
gun owners.
New county EMS head will aim at staffing, developing
young talent for careers in emergency service disciplines
Armstrong brings lessons
learned in rural outback of
Oregon to county service
BY DANE HICKS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT The new head of
Anderson Countys Emergency
Medical Services Department is an
Iowa native whose experience runs
from Midwest farm country to the
sparsely populated high-desert frontier area of southern Oregon.
Troy Armstrong took over the post
as director of the countys EMS service earlier this month, coming from
a post in Oregon where he worked
as a contractor to help transition a
local all-volunteer emergency service
to a paid staff managed similarly to
Anderson County Hospitals arrangement with Saint Lukes Health
System. Previous to that he worked
in Warrensburg, Mo., and actually
started his career by getting his EMT
basic certification his senior year in
high school. The differences he said
between Anderson County and his
most recent post in Oregon especially in the expanse of the service area
are pretty pronounced.
Our service area here in Anderson
County is about 584 square miles,
Armstrong said. The service area
I was responsible for in Oregon was
5,800 square miles. The population
density was much lower. He said
it wasnt uncommon for ambulance
calls in that area to run up to an hour
in response time in a region of combined high-desert, forest and mountain terrain.
It was considered a frontier
county by the federal government,
Armstrong said. We had less than
one person per square mile.
One of the defining advantages
locally is the overall emergency system designed to handle various situations, Armstrong said. Anderson
County has the advantage of
having a system built from the
emergency dispatchers on up,
trained to determine types of
emergencies and relay to a network of volunteer first responders established in Anderson
Countys rural communities
to render more immediate aid
until an ambulance crew can
arrive at a scene.
Armstrong said as the new
head of the post his first priority
is to fill a couple of vacant positions the local service is in need of
an additional full time paramedic and
a part time paramedic as well and to
settle into relationships with the community of emergency personnel hell
be working with on a regular basis.
Hed also like to develop initiatives
to ferret out and encourage budding
EMS talent among the high school
and young adult age groups in hopes
of steering them toward EMS careers
and maybe staff positions with the
Schmidt signed on to a letter
from other state officials to U.S.
Senate leaders urging them to
reject Chipmans nomination as
director of the ATF. The letter
cites Chipmans previous statements and activities with organizations seeking to dismantle the
Second Amendment as reason to
reject his nomination.

local service.
He said his overall goal is that
community members feel comfortable
enough with the EMS service and
with emergency management in the
county in general that they never hesitate to call if theyre in need.
Thats the important thing,
Armstrong said. If we get there and
they dont need us thats fine, but Id
rather they had called and didnt need
us than to need us and not call.

THE SENTINEL
SPRINGFIELD, Mo. A federal judge last week denied a preliminary injunction that, unless
overturned on appeal, could force
the College of the Ozarks to begin
allowing men in womens dorms
and showers or vice versa.
In mid-April of this year, the
small Christian private college
along with the Alliance Defending
Freedom sued the Department of
Housing and Urban Development
and President Joe Biden personally over changes in HUD rules
that would prevent discrimination against the transgendered,
by requiring the school to house a
student as whatever gender with
which they identify.

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW Tuesday, June 1, 2021
The keeping of time
Having lived on the same
farm for over thirty years it
has become relatively easy to
determine what month it is by
just watching a few of Gods
creatures. February brings the
blue birds who have already
nested and hatched out a nest
of four. Now they have started
a new nesting as well. A pair
of geese who winter between
ponds leave in March. April
brings the orioles, who you
never know are here till their
hatch in late May, then they
become an alarm clock at daylight every morning. Watching
Gods creatures and his creation
provides a way of marking time.
However if you are not paying
attention you will miss all these
opportunities. Sadly it is this
lack of attention that plagues us
in our relationship with God.
God does not measure time
by a clock. The Bible speaks
of a God who exists eternally
as well as a man who lives in
a time-space framework. In
James 4:13-17 man is warned not
to plan his time as if it belongs
to him, but to do what the Lord
wills in his life. Why you do
not even know what will happen
tomorrow. What is your life?
You are a mist that appears for a
little while and then vanishes.
(James 4:14)
In biblical times the Jewish
people began a new day at sunset. Today we often block off
our daily events by fifteen minute intervals dictated to us by a
phone. This is suppose to make
us more efficient and if used
correctly can be helpful. As we
watch the hours, days, weeks,
months and years go by we fall
into a routine where our life
becomes very repetitive. There
WEEKLY DEVOTIONAL
BY DAVID BILDERBACK
is no way out of this our life
is a series of repetitive events.
Think about it, most of what we
do everyday we will repeat within the next day or so. We hasten
through these tasks we dislike to
do to get to something we want
to do.
Our method of keeping time
is both a blessing and a curse.
A blessing because of the structure it adds to our life. A curse
because of our incessant desire
to squeeze more and more into
each day. It is this incessant
desire that causes us to squeeze
God out of our life. You see God
is not the squeaky wheel that
most everything else is. He is
not the child under your feet, or
a spouse making a request or a
boss assigning us a task. God
is not demanding of our time,
however God is working in our
present time-space world, therefore some of our present time is
to be used for Gods purposes
and glory. At some point in time
God, who exists eternally will
remove time and space and men
will relate to God in an eternal
relationship.
Ministry on the Holiness of
God.

Richard Lee Tush, age 74, of Eureka,
Kansas, passed away on Wednesday, May
26, 2021, at his home.
Rick was born on October 6, 1946, in
Garnett, Kansas. He was the fourth of
seven children born to George Tush Sr.
and Mary Ann (Kueser) Tush. Rick grew
up in the Welda area,
where he attended high
school in Welda, before
transferring to Greeley
High School to play
basketball. He graduated with the class of
1965. Following high
school Rick partied at
Emporia State for one
Tush
year before being drafted into the US Army.
Rick was a radio operator during the
VietNam War, he was honorably discharged in 1969. Rick returned to Welda
and began working at the Sunflower
Army Ammunition Plant in De Soto,
Kansas. On July 3, 1971 Rick was united
in marriage to Nancy Adams in Colony,
Kansas. Their union was blessed with
two children, Jennifer and Daniel. Rick
returned to Emporia to pursue a biology
degree. In 1974 he earned his bachelors
degree from ESU. Rick began his career
as a wildlife biologist at the fish hatchery
in Pratt, Kansas. His career spanned 39
years and led him to Eureka, Kansas in
1978. Rick was blessed to have a career
that coincided with his passion for the
outdoors, he was proud of the work he
was able to participate in. Some of his
favorite projects included introducing
turkeys to Kansas, banding doves and
teaching hunters safety education and
wildlife conservation to landowners.
Ricks love of the outdoors was more than
a passing phase, throughout his life he
loved training Daryll to be a bird dog and
then his German Shorthair, Chester and
Sadd. He loved hunting (despite being
shot three times and none of them were
while in the military) and fishing, watching birds as well as hunting birds, trapping and gardening. His grandchildren
were the closest thing challenging his
love of his dogs, Rick especially loved
dancing (in his underwear) and playing
ball with them. Rick and Nancy enjoyed
going to concerts and traveling to KU basketball, KC Chiefs and Royals games. He
spent many years coaching little league
in Eureka and Garnett. Rick enjoyed
countless family card games and he spoke
fondly of their family trip to Yellowstone.
He was preceded in death by his parents; grandson, Nathan Mock; sister,
Shirley Watt; and brother, George Bud
Tush Jr.
Rick is survived by his wife of 49.9
years, Nancy of the home, daughter,
Jennifer Tush of Eureka, son, Daniel
Tush and wife, Rachael Lane of Lawrence,

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW Tuesday, June 1, 2021
OPINION
Covid reveal: Keep classroom cameras
One of the windows opened by the Covid
pandemic for the rest of the outside world was
one that allowed a glimpse into the activities
and proclivities of classroom teachers as they
presented their lessons and sometimes their
opinions during Zoom lectures and other monitored online presentations.
Now, with firsthand knowledge of some of the
extremist tendencies of some teachers in charge
of instructing our students, its time for parents
to demand to be able to tune-in at will to those
classes via camera systems which are already in
place from the Covid pandemic.
Some of the worst of those teacher interactions have been viral across the Internet for
months. Local residents need look no further
than the recent bizarre behavior of 5th District
Representative Mark Samsel (R) in a Wellsville
high school art classroom in which he was substitute teaching to see the reasoning. In this case
students with their own sense that something
was awry recorded their own sporadic video of
Samsels strange and inappropriate behavior,
and those videos have been viewed broadly.
But because theyre segmented between cameras from several different students theres no
recording that shows exactly what happened
with continuity.
The value of classroom cameras goes beyond
providing evidence of such outlandish goings
on. Videos recorded during online instruction
have relayed proof of a disturbing tendency
among some teachers to imbue their lessons
with their own political views and personal
biases, forcing students to swallow those points
of view along with the mandated curriculum
their parents and school districts are paying to
support. Thats unethical and points to a broader concern that classrooms are being used not
just to instruct, but also to mold the collective
young mind of America toward a certain political landscape.
Take for instance the case of Alisa Piro, an
English teacher at San Marcos High School
north of Los Angeles, CA., who lambasted her
students over racial equity (…you dont need
a white student union Jake you get everything!…) and dared their parents to come talk
to her about the need to continue online learning instead of in person classroom instruction
after all, she relayed, shes the professional and
theyre only parents. Seems like a long way from
analyzing Chaucers seven-line stanza form.
Then theres the teacher at Poynette High
School in Wisconsin who destroys the idea of
follow the science with a vicious rant against
a vaccinated student who refused to wear a
mask in class. (I dont care if youre vaccinated,
REVIEW COMMENTARY
DANE HICKS, Publisher
you little dink! I dont want to get sick and die!
Theres other people you can infect just because
youre vaccinated. Youre not a big man on
campus quit walking around here like you
have a stick up your butt). This video of course
captured by another student in the class.
Online learning applications have even
caught outright racist rants by teachers against
students. A Black family in Palmdale, Calif.,
filed a claim against the school district after a
Zoom call with a teacher to discuss their sons
problems with online learning. The teacher
thought the call was over and went on a halfhour rant on what she believed the real problems were (His parents, thats what kind of
pieces of s they are. Black. Hes Black. Theyre
a Black family, shes heard saying at one point.
Your son has learned to lie to everybody and
make excuses that nothing is his fault. This is
what Black people do. This is what Black people
do. White people do it too but Black people do it
way more, she continues.)
Schools have long invited parents to sit in
on their childs class to observe, but everyone
knows that changes the entire dynamic of the
classroom and doesnt give a fair representation
of the day-to-day for either the students or the
teacher.
Modern camera systems are inexpensive,
dependable, and already in place. They can
continue to offer a view to parents of realtime
activities and classroom discussions with the
click of a mouse, exactly as they did during the
pandemic outbreak. Additionally the school can
record with a birdseye view in case records are
needed.
It should become a priority for public school
districts to put the current system into use for
this purpose. Its clear public classrooms have
been kept sealed from public view too long. ###

Marjorie Taylor-Green is being anti-semetic
because she said Pelosis mask rule in congress
is like the Holocaust, when theyre all cheering

Is Mark Samsel really a Republican? We better

LGBTQs over women athletes and kicks like

GUEST COMMENTARY
MICHAEL GOODWIN NEW YORK POST
The late Sen. Daniel Patrick Moynihan was
fond of saying that a bullet has no friend when
it leaves the gun. The same can be said about
hate and wrongdoing, which respect no borders once they are unleashed.
So while President Biden, Gov. Cuomo and
Mayor de Blasio rightly condemn the vicious
attacks against Jews, they also share blame
for the general lawlessness that is inseparable
from the explosion of hate crimes.
They knew what had to be done a year ago,
and refused to do it. They made excuses for
the random violence and looting, refused even
to call it what it was and now are shocked,
shocked to discover that absolutely everything

will be on Biden and his agenda, which will
loom larger than anything the former president can do from Mar-a-Lago.
The Democratic polling outfit Democracy
Corps just did a battleground survey that
confirmed this picture. As Stanley Greenberg
writes in a memo about the poll, among
Republicans: the percent scoring 10, the highest level of interest in the election, has fallen
from 84-68%. But Democrats engagement fell
from 85- 57%.
Greenberg calls the GOP base uniquely
unified and engaged.
More evidence is the boffo fundraising by
the National Republican Campaign Committee
so far. Meanwhile, GOP candidate recruitment is ahead of the pace of prior midterm
cycles, whereas Democrats are seeing worrisome retirements.

The lefts attacks on law enforcement after
the Floyd murder and the decision by most of
the political class to run for cover spawned an
era of anything goes.
Big Tech, which rushes to block conservative speech, moves slowly if at all to block
anti-Semitism, allowing both Louis Farrakhan
and Ayatollah Khamenei to spew their bile
unmolested.
The hatefest cycle started with unprovoked
attacks on Asian-Americans following the
China origin of the coronavirus, often by the
mentally ill. Now, following the Gaza-Israeli
war, Jews are being targeted for the offense of
wearing a yarmulke or waving an Israeli flag.
Democrats always want to make America
more like Europe and we are getting close
in the worst way. Eight decades after the
Holocaust, the overt anti-Semitism in France
has driven many Jews to Israel or the U.S.
And now the disease has followed them
here, given license by the Jew-hating rhetoric of congressional Dems, especially Reps.
Rashida Tlaib and Ilhan Omar. They hold

Schumer, who has lost his voice just when it is

Future favors Republicans as Biden foibles mount
Republicans have had a brutal news cycle
over the past month, between the ouster of Liz
Cheney from leadership and the intraparty
jousting over a January 6 commission.
The overwhelming sense of the coverage is
that the party is descending into madness and
civil war and is a husk of its former self.
Theres no denying that much of the party has
been too willing to indulge or look away from
wild theories about the 2020 election and the
Capitol riot, but this shouldnt obscure the
fact that the Republicans are well-positioned
to take the House next year.
All indications are that GOP voters are
united and energized and the party is doing
whats necessary to make Kevin McCarthy the
next speaker, which would instantly squash
the never-very-plausible talk of Joe Biden
being the next FDR.
The foundation of the GOPs unity, of
course, is that Donald Trump effortlessly
maintained his control of the GOP. The anticipated civil war came and went with barely a
shot fired.
Cheney is certainly a casualty, although
she is now less a leader of a significant faction
of the party and more a voice crying in the
wilderness. That is an honorable role, and she
may well be vindicated in the fullness of time.
But the party will pay no electoral price for the
drama over her leadership role or, likely, for
its continued loyalty to Trump.
Despite Trumps grip, hes not front and
center for average voters. He isnt president
and he isnt on the ballot. The focus inevitably
Gas prices are soaring. Inflation is soaring.
Our border is wide open and a disaster. The
economy is crashing. War is raging again in the
Middle East. But its okay yall – chicken noodle
soup brain did a photo op eating chocolate ice
cream yesterday – so everythings fine.
On a lighter note, dont judge or you shall be
judged.
Crime is now Americas Public Enemy #1
On the anniversary of George Floyds murder last week, it is beyond dispute that the
case sparked new appraisals of race relations
and policing. It is also beyond dispute that the
protests and unchecked riots that followed
Floyds death sparked an epidemic of crime
that continues to engulf American cities.
The statistics are familiar, yet still shocking. The nearly 20,000 gun-related homicides last year were the most in decades, and
one researcher found that 51 of the 57 largest
cities saw increases. New Yorks body count
was up by nearly 40 percent.
Violent crime soared by a reported 74 percent in Seattle, 55 percent in Chicago and 54
percent in Boston. This year is on pace to be
far worse, signaling that 2020 wasnt an outlier
so much as the start of a deadly new trend.
From sea to shining sea, America is witnessing the breakdown of public order and
safety. Unfortunately, recent days brought a
new dimension to that breakdown the incidents of anti-Semitism roiling New York, Los
Angeles and elsewhere.
It is not a coincidence that the same places where violence and murder are soaring
are the same places where it is not safe for
Jews to display their religion in public. The
ancient hatred has come out of hiding and
piggy-backed on the collapse of public order to
bare its fangs.
If your flock has left maybe you should go after
them. Or is your pride in your way.
Its not as though theres a high bar for the
GOP. Republicans will need to flip about halfa-dozen seats in the House, when in the postWorld War II era the presidents party has lost
on average 27 seats in midterms.
On top of this, the playing field is tilting the
GOPs way. Reapportionment gave more seats
to Republican states and based on its strength
in state legislatures, the GOP also has the
upper hand in redistricting.
The Biden theory is that $6 trillion in spending will deliver a roaring economy that diminishes any midterm losses. But the latest jobs
and inflation numbers show that it might not
be so simple, and there is considerable doubt
whether Biden can get his spending.
Greenberg derives some comfort from his
belief that, in contrast to 2020, this time,
Democrats cannot fail to see how early
Trumps party is fully engaged with its ongoing culture war, focused on crime, open borders, and defunding the police.
Yet, there is no indication of any effort to
seriously defuse these issues. Bidens policies
have needlessly created a crisis at the border,
and murder rates continue to climb in major
cities, even as much of the left still talks of the
police as if its a racist occupying force.
There are miles to go before November 2022.
Biden might find a way to thread the needle of
cooperating with Republicans on infrastructure and police reform without alienating his
own base, and unforeseen events always take

Attention brick collectors
DIGGING UP THE PAST
Henry Roeckers
Call (785) 504-4722 for
local archeology information.
I was wondering how many
brick collectors there are in
Anderson County.
Did you know that at one time
there were three brick yards in
our county?
June 8, 1883
Messrs. S. Kauffman, Sam
Crum and Robert Roach have
formed a company for the manufacture of brick. Their yard
and kiln will be located on Cedar
Creek near the Axle bridge.
Nov. 7, 1885
Peter Barndt will open a
brick yard south of town in the
spring. (Many of the buildings in
Garnett were erected with bricks
from this yard.)
March 25, 1885
Peter Barndt is getting ready
to burn (fire) 500,000 bricks. (His
brick yard was located near
South Fork, south of Garnett.)
Another brickyard was located just north of the old POLLY
or POLLEY bridge on 31 Hwy.
I have no name of owner or date
it was established.

opments is to say America has
conducted an unplanned experiment on human nature in the
last year. First we demonized
the cops, talked about defunding them and even the cities
that didnt do that handcuffed
them.
Another part of the experiment has prosecutors, politicians and judges, their hearts
bleeding with social justice
demands, setting the accused
free and emptying prisons.
The results are in, and they
are grim. It turns out that
human nature, when it fears no
consequences, is emboldened
in savage ways.
As for the cops, they are
retiring in record numbers.
Given how even the best
of them are being sacrificed
on the altar of social justice
and political expediency, it is
remarkable that so many ordinary men and women continue
to do such heroic and extraordinary work.
For New Yorkers, the mushrooming crisis of crime and
disorder pushes the stakes
even higher in next months
Democratic mayoral primary.
The winner will almost certainly prevail in the general election, and inherit the whirlwind
next Jan. 1.

Eric Adams, a leading candidate, is an ex-cop who has talked most clearly about the need
to restore law and order while
also promising equal-handed
enforcement. For that reason,
I intend to vote for him, yet
there is so much time between
now and the inaugural that,
at this rate, the city will have
fallen deeper into the dystopian
abyss.
Certainly there is no reason
to believe de Blasio has any
interest in beginning the turnaround during his remaining
months. His search for his next
job will consist only of progressive prattle and, like his entire
tenure, actual governing will
be an afterthought.
Similarly, Biden takes his
orders from the far left and
Cuomo and the Legislature
have turned their backs on the
mayhem they helped produce.
The upshot is that, despite its
bloody and predictable failure,
the citys experiment in human
nature will continue into the
new year. The results are
already spoken for: there will
be many more victims of crime
and hate.

Pictured is the No Place Like Holmes Diner in Garnett. The 10-stool diner was new in September of
1953 and first located in Garnett. It was owned by Lee Hughes of Garnett and operated by Tom Lamb.
The diner was purchased by Leonard Starit in either 1962 or 1964 where the name would be changed
to Strarits Drive In until 1984 when it would be purchased again. Nancy Burroughs purchased the diner
and ran it as Nancys Drive In for two years. In 1986 Dale Holmes purchased the diner and by the
end of the decade relocated it to Rantoul, currently the building is in Lane. The building is known as a
Valentines Diner. There were small diners that were built in Wichita for several decades from the late
1930s into the 1970s and shipped all over the country.

states, we are concerned
that Mr. Chipman will
make Americans less safe
by diverting ATF resources to attack the rights of
law-abiding gun owners
instead of cracking down
on violent criminals and
criminal organizations.
The letter notes that
Chipman testified in 2019
before Congress that he
wanted to ban the manufacturing and sale of
AR-15s, forcing existing
owners to be subject to
a $200 tax, fingerprinting and additional background checks.
Mr. Chipman has a
First Amendment right as
a private citizen to work
for these political organizations and to lobby for
the taxation, registration,
and even confiscation of
firearms, the letter states.
Americans likewise have
the Second Amendment
to protect their God-given
rights to keep and bear
arms.
kicking or striking the student.
I did it just enough to and I
dont even know if I made contact Samsel said according to
the report.
The student however, also
interviewed by the detective, said
Samsel began ranting as the class
began about God and the devil, the
wrath of God and how rap music
is wrong and how kids should
listen to other types of music.
He said he began ignoring Mark
and eventually started talking to
another student and that Samsel
became upset about him talking
when Samsel was speaking. He
said Samsel threatened him but
he thought he was joking, but
Samsel eventually pushed him
into the wall at first and later
kicked him in the groin after he
became angrier.
Videos shot by students in the
class and widely circulated record
parts of the altercation, audio of
Samsels dialogue and the student
being shoved into the wall, then
running away screaming.
Samsel told the detective he
understood this shouldnt have
happened, but he said after he
warned the student several times,
I had a crystal clear moment,
and I swear to God and the cam-
era, that God said Yes that is
what I was supposed to do. The
interviewer then clarified that
God told him to put his hands on
the child.
Twice, Samsel answered.
Samsel made numerous references to God and the devil in
since-deleted lengthy Facebook
posts around the time of the incident, all following press coverage
of his vote against a Republican
effort in the Legislature to pass a
bill prohibiting transgender male
students from competing against
girls in high school and college
sports. In one of the posts Samsel
urged a boycott of The Anderson
County Review, which covered
the vote.
Also a high school basketball referee, Samsels campaign
Facebook page contained an
extensive collection of photos of
student happenings around his
district, which includes most of
Anderson County and parts of
Linn, Franklin and Miami counties.
Recently after the incident
and the filing of charges, Samsel
bought dinner for a group of
Anderson County High School
baseball players whod just won
their regional tournament championship.
How to reduce the effects of a drought on your cattle herd
MANHATTAN, Kan. Just
as agricultural economists
advise beef producers to follow
a risk management strategy
when it comes to cattle marketing, those same principles
are important when anticipating drought, said the experts at
Kansas State University speaking on a recent Cattle Chat podcast.
Having both a plan and a
contingency plan is important
for mitigating the risk when it
comes to drought, said Brad
White, Beef Cattle Institute
director and veterinarian.
Nutritionist
Phillip
Lancaster said there are several options for producers to
consider.
One option is to plant
drought tolerant crops that
could be harvested for feed in
the future, Lancaster said.
Another option is to take the
cattle off the pastures early to
conserve the feed resources.
Lancaster termed this practice
destocking.
One way to destock the
pastures is to wean the calves
early at four months of age,
he said. By doing that, the cow
will stop producing milk and
maintain her body condition
with less feed resources.
A lactating cow consumes
20-30% more forage than a
non-lactating cow per day, so
by weaning the calves early,
the forage consumption will
decrease, Lancaster said.
Looking ahead several
months, Lancaster suggested
producers consider alternative feeds to meet the energy
requirements of the herd.

Purchased hay is an expensive option relative to the
energy value it provides; feed
resources such as distillers
grains or soybean hulls offer
energy at a cheaper cost,
Lancaster said. Feeding the
cattle a more moderate energy
diet that uses less forage while
still meeting the herds nutritional requirements can really
reduce the feed bill.
To know if they are facing
a drought situation, White
offered this tip: With a yardstick, measure the height of the
grass in the pasture in June,
July and August and then compare those images from year
to year to see if there is a pattern..

Two Bulldog
golfers finish
in top 25
at State
Perfect game, extra-inning thriller lead to state runner-up finish
MANHATTAN – It wasnt the
finish the Anderson County
Bulldogs (23-4) wanted as they
were hammered 19-0 by Rock
Creek in the state championship game, but it doesnt diminish anything they worked so
hard to accomplish throughout
the season.
The opening round game on
Thursday was a thriller. It will
go down as a game that Bulldog
Derek Rockers will never forget as he pitched a perfect game
to kick off the 3A state baseball
tournament in Manhattan in a
victory over Hugoton (13-8).
Despite not allowing a baserunner, the Bulldogs had to
sweat out a 1-0 victory.
The lone run came in the bottom of the fourth for Anderson
County as a Braden Blaufuss
hit scored Dallas Kueser.
In the semi-final game
against Frontenac, the Bulldogs
scored a run in the bottom of
the seventh to send the game to
extra innings.
Frontenac took an early 1-0
lead, which the Bulldogs erased
in the bottom of the third in
large part due to a couple of
Frontenac errors, leading to
two runs for AC.
Frontenac would battle
back and lead 4-2 heading into
the bottom of the sixth.
AC would rally with one
run in the sixth and after a
leadoff walk in the seventh by
Ashton Miller, Miller would
score on a Dalton Kellerman
triple to knot the game at 4
and send the game to extra
innings.
Frontenac had a chance
to completely blow the game
open in the top of the 8th as
they loaded the bases with no
one out but D. Kueser would
get out of the jam without
allowing a run.
In the bottom of the 8th,
Rockers and Sommer hit
back-to-back singles with one
out.
After tying the game in the
7th, Miller would hit a double
to score the winning run in
the 8th to send the Bulldogs to
the championship game.
Rock Creek led 3-0 after
the first and tacked on single
runs in the second and third
innings before blowing the
game wide open with 14 runs
in the fourth inning.

SHOWERS…
FROM PAGE 1
Roseanne A. Ketchmark, a
Barack Obama appointee,
denied the motion for preliminary injunction filed by the
college, asking her to suspend
the rule changes pending the
outcome of their lawsuit.
The backstory
ADF and the college sued
the president of the United
States, as well as the U.S.
Department of Housing and
Urban Development, HUD
Director Marcia L. Fudge, and
Acting Assistant Secretary
for Fair Housing and Equal
Opportunity Jeanine M.
Worden as defendants in a federal lawsuit to prevent implementation of an executive
order signed by Biden on the
first day of his presidency. The
order prohibits discrimination
by federal agencies on the basis
of gender identity, as well as a
HUD directive under the fair
housing act requiring aggressive prosecution of alleged discrimination.
The memorandum says HUD
has interpreted prohibitions in
the Fair Housing Act against
discrimination based on sex or
sexual orientation to include
gender identity. However, the
act does not at any point
mention gender identity as
protected under the FHA.
The lawsuit noting several First Amendment violations alleges the directive
is a substantive regulation
under the law, and that both
Biden and HUD have violated federal laws regarding how
regulations may be promulgated.
This directive was issued
without any notice or comment
opportunities for the public,
Ryan Bangert, ADF Senior
Counsel and Vice President for
Legal Strategy said in a phone
interview at the time. It was
issued outside the normal process that should be followed
under the Administrative
Procedure Act.
Because there was no notice
of the directive nor opportunity for public comment,
the lawsuit argues the regulation is illegal on its face and
should be set aside.
The lawsuit also noted First
Amendment violations based
on sincerely held beliefs of
the plaintiffs.
The hearing
At the hearing, ADF attorney
Julie Blake argued that the rule
change was enforceable, and
while there were no complaints
against the colleges housing
practices currently, the college
was proactively addressing the
issue.
The college need not wait
for an actual prosecution or
enforcement action before
challenging a laws constitutionality, Blake said, according to the Springfield (Mo.)
News-Leader.
Attorney for the defendants
James Luh argued the memorandum was not directed at
the college and does not specifically address the kinds of
issues the college has raised
here showers, or roommates.
In a phone interview on
May 27, Bangert said the argument is disingenuous at best,
as while the memo may not
have been aimed at the college,
but because dorms are considered multi-family housing
by HUD, and thus under their
jurisdiction it could certainly be enforced on the College of
the Ozarks.
The directive was directed
toward the enforcers federal
and state, Bangert said. those
enforcers are tasked with
receiving complaints from people who claim theyve been discriminated against.
Bangert said those enforcers have the jurisdiction and
authority to enforce against
entities subject to the Fair
Housing Act which includes
College of the Ozarks.
So, the government claiming that this directive is not
addressed to the university?
Its really a shell game, he
said. its addressed to the
enforcers, who would enforce
against the universities and
say this is what you must do.
Appeal
According to Bangert, Judge
Ketchmark who has yet to
issue a formal order in the case
reasoned that since the new
rule was not final, and that
since there have not yet been
any claims of discrimination,
she lacked authority to even
hear the case.
However, the argument
that the rules are not final is
belied by the text of the memorandum itself, which states
effective immediately FHEO
shall accept for filing and
investigate all complaints of
sex discrimination, including
discrimination because of gender identity or sexual orientation.
ADF is already preparing
to file an appeal with the 8th
Circuit Court of Appeals and
has filed another motion for
preliminary injunction, pend-

ing appeal.
In a press release, the president of the college defended his
institution.
The Biden Administrations
policy forces College of the
Ozarks to decide between
defending its religious liberty
from government overreach
or violating our core beliefs,
Jerry C. Davis said. The governments threats include
harmful fines that could easily amount to six figures. Fair
Housing Act penalties can even
land people in jail. College of
the Ozarks will not stand on
the sidelines while our right to
religious freedom is attacked.
That is why we filed a lawsuit with Alliance Defending

Youth for Suicide Prevention
believes that every young person deserves to be safe from
suicide and that the best way
to reach youth in Kansas is to
provide opportunities for them
to reach out to their peers, thus
the Youth Suicide Prevention
Art Contest was created. The
contest, which ended April 5,
2021, was open to Kansas youth
in grades 6 through 12 and 28
youth from across the state
dedicated their time and talents to developing messages to
reach other youth with their
submissions.
We are pleased with the
incredible quality of submissions for the contest. Every
person who entered clearly
put great thought and effort
into their submission, Steve
Devore, President/CEO of
Kansas Suicide Prevention HQ
said. We look forward to sharing them across the state to
raise awareness of the possibility of hope and healing while
working to provide enough
support to Kansas youth so
that no one ever walks alone in
crisis. We anticipate all entries
will resonate with youth but
there were top prizes awarded
for the three grade categories
by youth judges.

Colony Christian Church Hit the Ground Running
Howard Reiter gave the
Communion Meditation over
Habakkuk 1:2-5. "How long, O
LORD, must I call for help?"
God makes things happen that
we wouldn't believe. How long
do we ask "how long", and then
we ache in silence. The Lord
is never silent, and his reasons for making us wait are
obscure, yet glorious. What is
God going to do in the midst
of your suffering? "The LORD
replied, 'Look around at the
nations; look and be amazed!
For I am doing something in
your own day, something you
wouldnt believe even if someone told you about it.'"
Pastor Chase Riebel gave the
sermon "Building Community
Connections: Hit the Ground
Running". Everyone who calls
on the name of the Lord will be
saved. Yet how can they know
to call on his name unless
someone tells them? The Great
Commission tells us to Go!
Go and teach them, making
more disciples and baptizing
them. Are you desperately
and urgently wanting to share
Jesus? People are perishing,
so the time is now! We need
to join up with other believers
and learn from each other so
we can better help people when
we share the Good News. And
we need to plan on being in it
for the long haul. Not everyone
accepts Jesus when they are
first told, so we must be diligent. And we can NOT be partial to who we tell and who we
don't. Don't share Jesus with
just those who you are comfortable with, and don't assume
you know how others will react.
Paul definitely didn't react the
way you would think he would
have, and he is one of the leading apostles in the Bible. Your
best friend may continue to
deny Jesus, and your biggest
enemy may be another Paul
in the making. (Ref: Matthew
3:2; 2 Corinthians 6:2; Hebrews
9:27-28; Romans 10:13-14; Acts

Governor Kelly signs into law school funding bills
"It is truly a great day for
Kansas kids, for their families
and for our businesses," Kelly
said.
Kelly signed HB 2134 that
provides the dollars required
under the Gannon school
finance settlement and HB 2313
which continues the statewide
20 mil property tax levy for
schools.
On Friday, Kelly signed SB
159 which includes additional funding for higher education, which officials said was
needed so Kansas can try to
satisfy a federal requirement
to receive COVID-19 funds for
K-12 schools.
Numerous education groups,
including KASB, issued a joint
statement praising Kelly and
the Legislature. The school
funding approved by the governor and Legislature will move
us forward. School leaders are
committed to the next steps,
the statement said.
KASB President Lori Blake,
who is a school board member
with Southeast of Saline USD
306, said the Gannon funding
gives schools some certainty.
Knowing that we have two
years to plan ahead and that
funding is stable, it just adds
so much to our table when we
are making those decisions,

of a bruising legislative session
in which public schools were
frequently attacked by several
Republicans for using remote
learning during the pandemic.
An attempt to set up a sweeping private school voucher system died on a tie vote in the
Senate and proponents of that
effort said they will try to get it
passed next year.
Even so, Kelly, a Democrat,
praised the bi-partisan approval of the final bills.
I want to thank the coalition of legislative colleagues,
advocates, teachers, and faculty for their advocacy. With
their support, we followed
through on our commitment
to ensure students, teachers,
and schools have the resources
they need, Kelly said.
Here are the major provisions of
the school finance plan:
School finance funding.
The bill contains appropriations for fully funding the estimated cost of the school finance
law for the current year, next
year (2021-22) and the following year (2022-23), based on the
increases in state foundation
aid approved by the Legislature
and the Kansas Supreme Court
to settle the Gannon school
finance case. It also includes
equalization for local option
budget, capital outlay and cap-
ital improvement aid, based on
statutory formulas; increasing
special education state aid $7.5
million each year, and the estimated KPERS contribution for
school districts.
Special programs COVID
aid. The bill directs the Kansas
Department of Education
to use $10 million in federal
COVID aid for three programs
in each of the next two years,
unless KSDE determines those
funds cannot be used for such
purposes. That includes $5 million to continue school safety
grants as funded in the past
several years; $3.9 million to
expand school mental health
programs under the current
pilot program; and $100,000 to
fund Communities in Schools
programs. Because these federal funds are temporary, members of the conference committee said school districts should
expect to need to continue
these programs on their own
after federal funding ends.
$500
E m p l oye e
Compensation-COVID aid.
The bill recommends but
does not require that school
boards approve additional,
one-time compensation of up
to $500 for teachers, paras and
other hourly employees who
were employed in the 2020 and
2021 school years as recognition for the additional challenges of dealing with COVID, to be
funded from federal COVID aid
if approved as an authorized
expenditure.
Dyslexia Funding. The
bill provides $80,000 to begin
implementation of additional
support for addressing dyslexia
issues in school districts and
teacher training in higher education.
School Board Budgeting.
The bill adds language proposed in HB 2067 and SB 93
directing school boards in
their budgeting process to
direct funds to improve student
achievement and allocate funding to achieve the state education goals or Rose capacities
for successful students. This
change will not impose new
requirements on how districts
must allocate funds but will
increase scrutiny over results.
High Density At-Risk.
The bill extends the sunset
or expiration of high-density
at-risk weighting until 2024.
The statutory authority of this
weighting, which provides over
$50 million to districts with the
highest percentages of low-income students, has expired, but
has been extended by proviso
until 2022 in last years appropriations bill.
At-Risk Funding Audit.
The bill directs a new Legislative
Post Audit to be conducted in
2023 of how school districts
are spending funds provided
for at-risk education, whether those expenditures and the
State Board of Education and
the Kansas State Department of
Educations administration of
the program comply with state
law, and evaluation of trends
in the academic outcomes of
students receiving at-risk education program services.
At-Risk Programs. The
bill contains provisions of
SB 173 that set new statutory
guidelines on the expenditure
of at-risk funds by school districts, reporting requirements
and expected results.
Foster Care Report Card.
The bill places in state law
a requirement to provide an
Search

AD
annual report on the educational outcomes of students in students in foster care, which are
significantly lower than overall
student outcomes. Gov. Kelly
has already required such a
report by executive order.
Concurrent Enrollment.
The bill contains provisions of
SB 32 that will allow, but not
require, school districts to pay
all or a portion of postsecondary tuition and fees for high
school students enrolled in
dual or concurrent enrollment
courses.
Remote Learning Limits.
The bill contains restrictions
on how much time school districts can operate in remote
learning that will count for
the minimum required school
term, and how much time
individual students can be in
remote learning without being
counted and funded as a virtual
student. The restrictions were
modified from a version passed
by the House in HB 2119 and SB
175, based on input from KSDE.
Expansion of Private
School Scholarship Tax
Credit. The bill amends the
current state program providing tax credits for contributions used for scholarships for
certain students to attend private schools. Student eligibility
is expanded from those who
quality for free meals to both
free and reduced-price meals,
and from students attending
one of the 100 lowest performing public schools based on
test scores to those attending
any public school in grade K-8.
Once the student received such
scholarship, they can continue
to receive it. The bill does not
raise the $10 million cap on tax
credits for the program, and
does not include a broader private school aid program called
Education Savings Accounts
that passed the House in HB
2119 and SB 175.
ACT for Private School
Students. The bill allows students enrolled in accredited
private schools to participate
in the program allowing students to take the ACT, ACT
Workkeys and pre-ACT assessments at no cost.
The Legislature returns
for the official end of the session on Wednesday for what is
called sine die, but traditionally the meeting is ceremonial.
Leaders of the Republicandominated Legislature, however, have talked about trying
to pass a ban on transgender
athletes in K-12 and higher education sports on Wednesday.
Kelly vetoed such legislature
during the session, but some
legislators have talked about
passing it again and attaching
it to a bill that would allow
college athletes to receive compensation for their name and
likeness. That name and likeness proposal is being pushed
by Kansas college athletic officials who say it is needed so
that Kansas can compete for
top athlete recruits with states
that have already passed such
laws.

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW Tuesday, June 1, 2021
CLASSIFIEDS
Summer gatherings
Glenn Brunkow, Pottawatomie
County farmer and rancher
I traveled to Washington,
D.C. this past week. It was really the first time I had traveled
in more than a year, and it
was the first time I had taken
a plane since the pandemic hit
us over a year ago. I have had
both of my shots so I am fully
vaccinated, but I must say I had
a little trepidation about traveling. The mask mandate was
still in full force in the airports
and on the planes, and it was
followed by nearly everyone at
the airport and everyone on the
plane.
When we arrived in D.C.,
we could go without them outside, but they were required
indoors. Was it like traveling
before we were told to stay at
home? No it was different.
But there was an air of the idea
that things were getting more
back to normal. Now you could
argue about what normal is
in terms of D.C., and I would
probably not argue back, but
it was good to get closer to life
pre-pandemic.
We are doing the same
thing at Kansas Farm Bureau.
Staff is back in the office in
Manhattan, meetings are being
planned and held in-person,
and I think we are all very
relieved about that. Zoom
meetings are good in some
instances, but they can never
replace face-to-face meetings
for effectiveness. I hope you
saw the announcement about
our Big Tent Reunion starting
June 1 around the state, and I
hope you plan on attending the
one closest to you. The meetings are planned as a way for
all of us to reconnect and enjoy
just being in the presence of
fellow farmers and ranchers.
No strings, no business to conduct, just spending time with
old friends.
Word is also getting out
about the Summer Summit and
Young Farmers and Ranchers
conferences in Manhattan the
last week in July. I cannot tell
you how much I am looking
forward to those events and
seeing even more friends from
around the state, attending
great workshops and, most
importantly, getting back to
normal. I have had that week
highlighted on my calendar for
a long time. There was a time
I was afraid it would not happen, but I am here to tell you
it is full-steam ahead. To register or learn more about all the
events planned this summer,
visit www.kfb.org.s Or if you
are technologically challenged
like me, call your county office.
Watch for the announcement of more meetings because
they are coming as we start
to ramp up and catch up from
all we have missed over the
last year. I know I cannot wait
to get back to normal. Who
thought we would miss shaking hands so much? Its time to
come out of the darkness that
was the past year and enjoy a
breath of fresh air, and that is
literal because we will not have
to breathe through a mask. Life
is good, and it is about to get
better.

U.S. Department of Education
releases ESSER funds guidance
The U.S. Department of
Education on Wednesday
released guidance to help
state officials and local school
districts understand allowable uses for federal funds for
COVID relief. While the guidance doesnt have the force of
law, it signals an administrations goals and priorities.
The federal government has
allocated billions of dollars to
U.S. schools since March 2020
to help them recover from the
effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. Kansas K-12 schools
will receive more than $1 billion by September 2024.
The
Elementary
and
Secondary School Emergency
Relief (ESSER) and Governors
Emergency Education Relief
(GEER) funds have been controversial in some quarters,
with state and federal lawmakers questioning the amount of
aid and its allowable uses in
relation to other budget areas.
In several states including
Kansas, some legislators said
the federal funds should be
used in place of state funds
for schools. The federal guidance makes clear states may
not supplant state funds with
federal funds for ongoing,
non-COVID-related expenses.
The document also explains
federal expectations for state
maintenance of effort and
maintenance of equity for
K-12 and higher education.
The Kansas legislature appropriated $53 million for FY 22
near the end of its 2021 session
to avoid violating Congress
maintenance of effort expectations and forfeiting more than
$1 billion in ESSER funds for
both higher education and K-12
schools.
The guidance is divided into
the following sections:
A. Overview of ESSER and
GEER funds.
B. Reopening schools safely
and promoting the health and
safety of students, staff, and the
school community.
C. Advancing educational
equity in COVID-19 response.
D. Using ESSER and GEER
funds to support educators and
other school staff.
E. Additional fiscal considerations.
KASBs Advocacy staff is
studying the guidance.

Studies suggest possible permanant
immunity to COVID following infection receive checks to buy at Farmers Markets
ST. LOUIS, Mo. Even a mild
case of coronavirus could leave
people with lifelong protection
against the virus, a new study
suggests, with researchers
calling previous reports that
immunity was not long-lived
following infection "a misinterpretation of the data."
In the study, conducted by
Washington University School
of Medicine in St. Louis and
published May 24 in the journal Nature, researchers took
bone marrow samples from 18
out of 77 participants who were
already signed up to give blood
samples at three-month intervals starting about a month
after initial infection. The
bone marrow samples were
taken between seven and eight
months after initial COVID
infection. Five of the 18 participants then gave second bone
marrow samples four months
later.
The team compared those
samples with bone marrow
taken from 11 people who had
never been diagnosed with
COVID-19.
While antibody levels in the
blood of people who had previous infections did drop quickly
in the first few months before
mostly leveling off, some antibodies were detectable even
11 months after infection.
Researchers also found antibody-producing cells specifically targeting SARS-CoV-2,
the virus that causes COVID19, in 15 of the bone marrow
samples. The cells were also
found in all five of the follow-up samples given four
months later.
The researchers said the
cells are "quiescent, just sitting in the bone marrow and
secreting antibodies."
"Last fall, there were
reports that antibodies wane
quickly after infection with
the virus that causes COVID19, and mainstream media
interpreted that to mean that
immunity was not long-lived,"
Ali Ellebedy, PhD., an associate professor of pathology and
immunology of medicine and

of molecular microbiology,
and senior author said in a
news release. "But thats a misinterpretation of the data. Its
normal for antibody levels to
go down after acute infection,
but they dont go down to zero;
they plateau. Here, we found
antibody-producing cells in
people 11 months after first
symptoms. These cells will live
and produce antibodies for the
rest of peoples lives. Thats
strong evidence for long-lasting immunity."
The researchers said its
not clear if those who have
more severe COVID-19 infection would have the same
long-lasting protection, as too
much inflammation could
lead to "defective" immune
responses. The team called
for more research to replicate
the study in people with moderate to severe infection and
is currently studying whether COVID-19 vaccines induce
long-lived antibody-producing
cells.

first 26 days of May, and late
last week storms and other
severe weather were brewing
across western and central
Kansas as the local area got a
few days break with sunshine.
The week-plus long deluge resulted in at least one
emergency call of a swamped
vehicle. County emergency
responders were called to a
scene on Trego Road just south
of 2500 Road near Greeley on
May 21. County fire chief Mick
Brinkmeyer said responders found four individuals
marooned in the back of a pickup in about 4-5 feet of flooded
road. Responders were able to
retrieve the four individuals
without incident or injury.
