BY VICKIE MOSS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
As a sophomore at Anderson
County High School two years ago, Joe
Dougherty wanted more.
More opportunities. More challenges.
At 16, Dougherty knew exactly where
he wanted to focus his energy. He knew
exactly what he wanted to study and in
what field he wanted to work – computer
science.
But at Anderson County, he couldnt
find enough classes or work study programs that would fit his goals. He would
have to take extreme measures, turn-
ing to a new
state program
that
would
take
him
away from his
friends and
family halfway through
his
high
school career.
Dougherty
joined
the
K a n s a s
Dougherty
Academy of
Mathematics
and Science (KAMS) in Hays, and on
Saturday, he was part of the third class
to graduate from the innovative new
school that combines high school and
college for high-achieving students.
While attending the academy, students spend their junior and senior
years of high school at Fort Hays State
University. They live on campus and
take college-level classes, earning dual
credit for high school and college.
Dougherty explained that the program essentially flips the traditional
high school setting. At a traditional
high school, college-bound students
attend high school classes and can take
advanced classes for college credit.
This is the reverse of that, he said.
Students take college classes, and earn
credit for high school.
For all intents and purposes, you are
a college student, Dougherty said.
KAMS had its commencement ceremonies Saturday at Fort Hays State
University. This Sunday, Dougherty
will graduate with the Class of 2013
at Anderson County High School. And

Takes the Stage
County forced to get
plans that were left
out during construction
BY VICKIE MOSS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT County commissioners say theyre going to get
a second opinion about ongoing electrical problems at the
Anderson County Jail, but they
feel confident the matter is
under control.
A local electrician has been
working for several months to
come up with electrical system plans and drawings that
were missing after the jail was
constructed in 2008. Gordon
Blackie
with
Lighthouse
Electric and also a Garnett City
Commissioner, has drawn plans
to show how the electrical system in the jail works, and recommended changes that need to
be made to improve the system
and address possible code and
safety problems.
County commissioners said
they are pleased with the work
Blackie has done, but want to
get a second opinion to ensure
nothing is overlooked.
Commissioner
Eugene
Highberger admits something
slipped through the cracks when
the jail was constructed, and
commissioners want to make
sure they properly resolve the
issue now so it doesnt continue
to plague the county.
The jail project was fraught
with cost concerns from its
first of three rounds of bidding,

Emergency management
positions under review
Change in leadership
offers opportunity to
study department
BY VICKIE MOSS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT The unexpected
departure of the countys emergency management director
has provided an opportunity for
county commissioners to evaluate the department and determine just what kind of staff is
needed to oversee the countys
emergency and fire needs.
Emergency Management
Director
Marvin
Grimes
resigned recently to take
another job. County commissioners asked his assistant, JD
Mersman, if he was interested
in the head county emergency
management position, and are
waiting to hear back from him
about his views on the department. Grimes and Mersman
told commissioners they believe
two people are needed to run
the department.
But commissioners said they
want to learn more about the
responsibilities and duties, in
order to determine what kind
of staff is necessary. Each county in Kansas must maintain a
detailed emergency management plan to prepare for emergencies and coordinate response
to disasters. They must work
with state and federal agencies

ANDERSON COUNTY BOARD OF
COMMISSIONER APRIL 29
Chairman Eugene Highberger called
the meeting of the Anderson County
Board of Commissioners to order at
9:00 a.m. on April 29 at the County
Commission Room. Attendance: Eugene
Highberger, Present: James K. Johnson,
Present: Jerry Howarter, Present. The
pledge of allegiance was recited. Minutes
of the previous meeting were read.
Correction made that Commissioner
Johnson stated that progress has been
made in the weed department, however, he feels productivity could be better. Correction made that a contract
will be offered to Steve Markham for
Appraiser when he receives his certification. Minutes approved as corrected.
Road and Bridge
Lester Welsh, Road Supervisor, met
with the commission. They will be working on 1700 Road and Osage Road
going east to move the road to try to get
it to drain better. They will be closing the
road for a couple of days while the work
on it. Lester informed the commission
about several other locations they will be
working on. Forrest Cass will be retiring
May 24th.
Zoning
Michelle Miller, Deputy Zoning, met
with the commission. She presented
a resolution to rezone approximately
3 acres from A-2 to R-3A for Strobell.
Commissioner Howarter moved to
approve Resolution 2013,0429:1
approving zone change ZC2013-02.
Commissioner Johnson seconded.
Approved 3-0.
Emergency Management
JD Mersman, Assistant Emergency
Management Director, met with the
commission. Discussion was held on
whether there is a need for two people
in the office. JD stated that if the office
went to just one person there are some
areas that would have to be eliminated.
Commissioner Johnson questioned if JD
was interested in taking over the director position. JD stated he considered
that over the last week and feels if he
is to advance he would have to consider that position. It was discussed that
Emergency Management and Rural Fire
is too much for one person to do alone.
JD will handle the office until a final decision is made.
Sheriff
Sheriff Valentine met with the commission. He questioned what to do with
the IT person for dispatch. He has been
watching what is being done and does
recommend paying Bob Stegner an
STATEMENT OF NONDISCRIMINATION
Craw-Kan Telephone Cooperative, Inc. is
the recipient of Federal financial assistance
from the Rural Utilities Service, an agency of
the U. S. Department of Agriculture, and is

Rights Act of 1964, as amended, Section 504 of
the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, as amended, the
Age Discrimination Act of 1975, as amended.
In accordance with Federal law and the U.S.
Department of Agricultures policy, this institution
is prohibited from discriminating on the basis of
race, color, national origin, sex, religion, age or
additional $150.00 per month for IT in

rate would be much higher compared
to the hours Bob is putting in on IT.
Commission voiced approval for the rest
of this year but questioned how long this
should continue. They had a door issue
again last week, however, the problem
was discovered quickly. Discussion was
held on where the information is that
Lighthouse Electric is documenting and
the county has paid for. At the present time Mr. Blackie still has all the
information, however, Sheriff Valentine
will be checking into getting it stored at
the courthouse. Commissioner Johnson
moved to continue pay for IT services

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW Tuesday, May 14, 2013
DOUGHERTY…
FROM PAGE 1A
while many of his ACHS classmates also will graduate with
college credit, Dougherty will
have enough credits to work
on a double major in computer
science and information technology, and still graduate from
college in two to three years.
He plans to continue to attend
FHSU, and will stay in Hays
over the summer to work on
personal projects.
Dougherty said the program
was quite challenging, especially during the second semester of
his senior year. His course load
included Physics for Engineers
II, Calculus III and Differential
Equations. The average test
score in his physics class was
about 30 percent, he said. The
KAMS program requires students to maintain a 3.0 GPA.
This program is not to be
taken lightly, Dougherty said.
There are times where you
have to work harder than you
ever thought you could. During
my time at ACHS, I never once
studied for a test and I generally
managed to pull all As. When
I got here, I had to realize that
you have to study and you had
better learn that fast.
In addition to learning college-level material, Dougherty
also was able to take part in a
research project with the head of
the FHSU physics department.
He worked for the FSHU Black
Board Mobile Development
team, where he programmed
iPhones and Androids.
The best part, however, was
developing special bonds with
other classmates, Dougherty
said. The program brings
together young students in a
unique college setting, and they
live together in one dorm, so its
natural the classmates become
quite close.
Nothing brings people closer together than sharing your
third pot of coffee of the night
at 4 a.m. while studying for a
test together, Dougherty said.
KAMS requires students
to apply for the program, and
selects only those who can
handle the rigors of essentially
attending college full-time and
away from home while still in
high school. Applicants must
have completed at least two
years of high school with distinction in math or science,
according to the programs
website, Other criteria include
drive, interest, maturity, stability, and personal and family
commitment. While the local
high school transfers its state
aid to help pay for the students
tuition and fees, students and
families must pay for housing
and meal plans, plus some other
expenses.
Although the program is
challenging, Dougherty recommends it to anyone who needs
more of a challenge in high
school, as long as they are prepared to meet the requirements
of the advanced program.
My choice to join the Kansas
Academy of Mathematics and
Science was the best one I have
ever made, he said. Not only
did I learn a great deal academically, but I grew greatly as
a person. Living on your own
challenges you for the better
and it adds to the challenge.
Dougherty is the son of Joe
and Rachel Dougherty and the
grandson of the late Dr. and
Mrs. Joe Dougherty of Garnett.

with numerous revisions to its
original design made to keep
the project under the voterapproved $5.5 million combined
property and sales tax bond
financing. Cost and bidding
issues eventually resulted in
the projects construction manager being released from the
project, and the project overseen by the general contractor
and then-county zoning director Tom Young.
During the jails construction, electricians made changes
to the original electrical plans
but failed to provide a detailed
plan or drawing showing what
changes were made, called an
as-built plan. As a result,
when electrical problems surfaced, commissioners and jail
administrators had difficulty
tracking the source of the problems.
Thats where Blackie came
in, and he tried to reconstruct
drawings of the electrical system. He discovered several
problems, such as regular lighting installed on the same circuit
as emergency backup lighting.
That means when the lights go
out in a cell block, the emergen-
cy backup lights also go out.
Commissioner
Jerry
Howarter said the risk of more
serious safety issues like fire
was slight, and was discovered
early. In some cases, coatings
were skimmed off wires as the
initial construction crew pulled
the wires through conduit.
It wasnt anything that was
going to endanger anyone. We
just want to make sure were up
to code, Howarter said.
The cost of the repairs is
not yet known, commissioners
said. Highberger estimates they
have spent a couple thousand
dollars already, and likely will
spend more. The system is no
longer covered by warranty,
and county conselor James
Campbell told them it would
not be cost-effective to take the
matter to court to try to prove
the original contractor was at
fault in order to recoup losses.
We think weve got it up
to par now, Howarter said.
Were going to have someone
locally give us a second opinion,

Anderson County, however,
is among a small group of counties that includes its rural fire
departments as part of its emergency management department.
The office oversees all of the
rural fire departments, making
sure they are properly staffed,
well trained, and supplied with
proper equipment.
Under Grimes and Mersman,
the office did a good job of managing those duties, commissioner Jerry Howarter said. Grimes
handled training and provided
direction, while Mersman
excelled at writing grants to
make sure rural fire departments received needed supplies,
training and equipment.
We pretty much liked the
way it was working, Howarter
said. They were staying under
budget and running a good
ship. I think they were doing a
good job of keeping everybody
trained and informed.
Mersman was expected to
provide commissioners with
a list of job responsibilities at
a county commission meeting
Monday, May 13. Commissioners
also have asked its human
resources consultants, Austin
Peters Group, to review the
department and offer its recommendations.

Playing politics
with tax records
A bedrock principle of U.S. democracy is that the coercive powers of
government are never used for partisan
purpose. The law is blind to political viewpoint, and so are its enforcers, most especially the FBI and the
Internal
Revenue
Service. Any
violation of
this principle threatens the trust
From
and the
The Washington Post
voluntary
cooperation
of citizens
upon which this democracy depends.
So it was appalling to learn Friday
that the IRS had improperly targeted
conservative groups for scrutiny. It was
almost as disturbing that President
Obama and Treasury Secretary Jack
Lew have not personally apologized to
the American people and promised a
full investigation.
Mistakes were made, the agency
said in a statement. IRS official Lois
Lerner explained that staffers used a
shortcut to sort through a large number of applications from groups seeking
tax-exempt status, highlighting organizations with tea party or patriot in
their names. The IRS insisted emphatically that partisanship had nothing
to do with it. However, it seems that
groups with progressive in their titles
did not receive the same scrutiny.
If it was not partisanship, was it
incompetence? Stupidity, on a breathtaking scale? At this point, the IRS
has lost any standing to determine
and report on what exactly happened.
Certainly Congress will investigate, as
House Majority Leader Eric Cantor (RVa.) promised. Mr. Obama also should
guarantee an unimpeachably independent inquiry.
One line of questioning should
focus on how the IRSs procedures
failed to catch this shortcut before
its employees began using it. Another
should center on how this misguided
practice came to light, and on what the
IRS planned and plans to do about it.
Ms. Lerner was responding to a question when the news first came out;
its not clear whether the government
intended otherwise to disclose what had
happened. Nor have officials been clear
whether disciplinary measures have
been taken.
Did some officials hope never to
reveal this wrongdoing? Did others
hope it could quickly get lost in the
weekend news cycle? Misguided, if so.
We hope to hear Democratic leaders as
well as Republican ones loudly saying
so.
The agency said that it now has
rules in place to make sure this sort of
thing never happens again. How could
such basic safeguards not have existed
in the first place? And what are the new
rules? In response to our questions,
officials did not say.
Thankfully, its a safe bet that the
decision on whether to answer such
questions wont rest solely with the
agency for much longer.

The euphemism imperative
BY RICH LOWRY
NATIONAL REVIEW
President Barack Obama was proud to
become the first sitting president to address
Planned Parenthood the other week. But not
proud enough to utter the word abortion.
The right to abortion is
the sneakiest, most shamefaced of all American
rights. It hides behind evasion and euphemism and
cant.
So President Obama sang a
hymn of praise to Planned
Parenthood at the organiLowry
zations annual conference
without mentioning what
makes it so distinctive and controversial. He
said its core principle is that women should
be allowed to make their own decisions about
their own health. He excoriated opponents
involved in an orchestrated and historic
effort to roll back basic rights when it comes
to womens health.
Listening to him, you could be forgiven
for thinking that the country is riven by a
fierce dispute over whether women should
be allowed to choose their own OB-GYNs or
to get cancer screenings. In his speech, the
president said the word cancer seven times.
About that he is happy to be forthright.
Imagine if he had been similarly frank
about the core of Planned Parenthoods
work: In 2011, according to your annual
report, your clinics or affiliates performed
330,000 abortions. Thats a lot of abortion.
Over 10 years more than 3 million. Thank
you, Planned Parenthood. Think of all those
women who wanted to terminate their pregnancies, and you were there for them. Thats
what you are about. And thats what this
country is about.
Before that crowd, he might have gotten
rousing applause, but talking in such honest
terms would have been a gross faux pas. The
unwritten rule when the left discusses abortion is that it shouldnt be called abortion,
but always health or, more specifically
reproductive health — although abortion
is the opposite of reproduction and, for one
party involved, the opposite of health.
The trial of Philadelphia abortionist
Kermit Gosnell has been an exercise in stripping away euphemism. He is accused of murdering babies because he allegedly didnt
manage to kill them in the womb and had to
finish the job outside the womb. His case is so
discomfiting for liberals not only because it
is such a stark picture of the seamy, moneygrubbing side of abortion, but because it illustrates how slight the difference is between
late-term abortion — or late-term health
— and what nearly everyone recognizes as a
crime.
In a story about the case, The New York
Times referred to the newborns killed by
Gosnell as fetuses. The definition of a fetus
according to Merriam-Webster is an unborn
or unhatched vertebrate. By definition,
the newborns werent fetuses; they werent
unborn. But the Times couldnt bring itself
to use the word baby.
This is the crux of the matter: If it is a
baby outside the womb, why not inside the
womb? If a procedure to end its life is wrong
outside the womb, why isnt it wrong inside
the womb?
The essence of abortion is that there are
two lives when you start and one when you
finish. If it were your business to perform
them and fight all restrictions on them, no
matter how slight, you wouldnt want to be
forthright and honest about it, either.

Review.
New primary political firepower
U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder has
handed Gov. Sam Brownback and many
Kansas House Republicans what amounts
to the political equivalent of a 30-round clip
to use during their upcoming election campaigns.
That political firepower?
Holders letter, released last week, that
basically told Brownback that the states
Second Amendment Protection Act that
Brownback signed into law and which prevents federal officials from seizingor,
even worse, registeringKansas-made or
Kansas-assembled guns that arent involved
in a crime is unconstitutional.
Holder could be right. But politically,
that doesnt matter.
Now, no matter where you are on gun
ownership or registration, politically, that
letter was a 30-round clip that the governor
can wield to the delight of gun-rights advocates, or with a little more complicated aim,
for certain fans of states rights.
That Kansas law? It prohibits federal
officialsprobably even postmenfrom
seizing or requiring registration of Kansasmade or assembled firearms. Kansas made?
Well, thats basically either manufacturing
guns stamped made in Kansas or just
sending off for enough parts to make a gun,
assembling them in Kansas, and not taking
them across the state line.
Now, there really isnt a substantial gun
industry in Kansasexcept for salesbut
if you can assemble mail-order parts here,
youve got yourself a Kansas gun, and the
federal government cant use the interstate
commerce clause of the U.S. Constitution to
track it to your nightstand or basement gun
locker/man cave.
Brownback replied that Kansans like
their gun rights, they think protecting them
from federal officials is good, and well see
where this goes from here.
The politics? For gun-rights advocates,
Brownback has put a line in the sand, hes
on their side and he didnt say it specifically,
but its clearly understood that hes on the
by Martin Hawver
KANSAS STATEHOUSE COLUMNIST
side of Kansas, not big government trying
to regulate Kansans lives.
Count on Kansas gun-rights advocates to
find themselves at the Republican primary
election voting for Brownback and legislative conservatives who voted for the Kansas
guns bill in what will be portrayed as a vote
against the federal government. Moderate
Republican senators who were ousted in
the last primary know what its like to be
portrayed as being for the federal governmenttheir votes against Kansas dropping
out of Obamacare because they didnt think
that action would pass constitutional muster came back to bite them as the senators
were characterized in campaign materials
as tools of the president.
From the small percentage of Kansans
who vote in primary elections figure that
defending the state against Holders threats
will be a hotter button than, say, school
finance or welfare reform.
That more complex states rights issue?
Its trickier, and probably wouldnt be needed, but politically, it could include federal
interference in, say, the Affordable Care Act
or same-sex marriage. Were thinking probably not to Kansas-raised, Kansas-smoked
marijuana, but the rejection of federal regulation of whatever goes on in Kansas could
be expanded to several interests.
Only political mistake Brownback made?
Probably not rejecting Holders lettersaying he wouldnt read it until Holder gets
President Barack Obama to co-sign it…
Only 21 states require students to attend
high school until they graduate or turn 18.
The proposal President Obama announced
on Tuesday night in his State of the Union
address to make such attendance compulsory in every state is a step in the right
direction, but it would not go far enough to
reduce a dropout rate that imposes a heavy
cost on the entire economy, not just on those
who fail to obtain a diploma.
In 1970, the United States had the worlds
highest rate of high school and college graduation. Today, according to the Organization
for Economic Cooperation and Development,
weve slipped to No. 21 in high school completion and No. 15 in college completion, as other
countries surpassed us in the quality of their
primary and secondary education.
Only 7 of 10 ninth graders today will get
high school diplomas. A decade after the No
Child Left Behind law mandated efforts to
reduce the racial gap, about 80 percent of
white and Asian students graduate from high
school, compared with only 55 percent of
blacks and Hispanics.
Like President Obama, many reformers
focus their dropout prevention efforts on high
schoolers; replacing large high schools with
smaller learning communities where poor
students can get individualized instruction
from dedicated teachers has been shown to
be effective. Rigorous evidence gathered over
decades suggests that some of the most promising approaches need to start even earlier:
preschool for 3- and 4-year-olds, who are fed
and taught in small groups, followed up with
home visits by teachers and with group meetings of parents; reducing class size in the early
grades; and increasing teacher salaries from
kindergarten through 12th grade.
These programs sound expensive some
Americans probably think that preventing 1.3
million students from dropping out of high
school each year cant be done but in fact
the costs of inaction are far greater.
High school completion is, of course, the
most significant requirement for entering college. While our economic competitors are rapidly increasing graduation rates at both levels,
we continue to fall behind. Educated workers
are the basis of economic growth they are
especially critical as sources of innovation
and productivity given the pace and nature of
technological progress.
If we could reduce the current number of
dropouts by just half, we would yield almost
700,000 new graduates a year, and it would
more than pay for itself. Studies show that the
typical high school graduate will obtain higher employment and earnings an astonishing
50 percent to 100 percent increase in lifetime
income and will be less likely to draw on
public money for health care and welfare and
less likely to be involved in the criminal justice system. Further, because of the increased
income, the typical graduate will contribute
more in tax revenues over his lifetime than if
hed dropped out.
When the costs of investment to produce
a new graduate are taken into account, there
is a return of $1.45 to $3.55 for every dollar of
investment, depending upon the educational
intervention strategy. Under this estimate,
each new graduate confers a net benefit to taxpayers of about $127,000 over the graduates
lifetime. This is a benefit to the public of
nearly $90 billion for each year of success in
reducing the number of high school dropouts
by 700,000 or something close to $1 trillion
after 11 years. Thats real money and a
reason both liberals and conservatives should
rally behind dropout prevention as an element
of economic recovery, leaving aside the ethical
dimensions of educating our young people.
Some might argue that these estimates are
too large, that the relationships among the
time-tested interventions, high school graduation rates and adult outcomes have not been
proved yet on a large scale. Those are important considerations, but the evidence cannot
be denied: increased education does, indeed,
improve skill levels and help individuals to
lead healthier and more productive lives. And
despite the high unemployment rate today,
we have every reason to believe that many of
these new graduates would find work our
history is filled with sustained periods of
economic growth when increasing numbers
of young people obtained more schooling and
received large economic benefits as a result.
Of course, there are other strategies for
improving educational attainment researchers learn more every day about which are effective and which are not. But even with what we
know, a failure to substantially reduce the
numbers of high school dropouts is demonstrably penny-wise and pound-foolish.
Proven educational strategies to increase
high school completion, like high-quality preschool, provide returns to the taxpayer that
are as much as three and a half times their
cost. Investing our public dollars wisely to
reduce the number of high school dropouts
must be a central part of any strategy to raise
long-run economic growth, reduce inequality
and return fiscal health to our federal, state
and local governments.

Tyson update on legislative
session covers taxes, guns,
drug testing and roofers
BY CARYN TYSON
KANSAS SENATE
If your business is a soleproprietorship, LLC, or SCorporation, you may want to
check if the business should
be paying state income tax for
tax year 2013. Last year income
taxes for small businesses was
eliminated and lowered for all
personal income taxpayers.
Taxes were lowered to keep
more money at home, not send
it to Topeka.
During regular session, several laws were passed protecting our 2nd Amendment rights
in Kansas. SB 21 was signed into
law and passed on a vote of 38 to
2. The bill allows reciprocity for
individuals traveling through
or visiting Kansas, recognizing
a valid concealed carry permit
from another state. The law
requires a new resident with
an out-of-state concealed carry
license to obtain a Kansas concealed carry license. The new
resident can apply for a 180day permit from the Attorney
Generals office while working
to get a Kansas concealed carry
license. One of the requirements for the 180-day permit is
that the out-of-state concealed
carry license is from a jurisdiction that meets or exceeds
Kansas requirements for concealed carry.
SB 102, referred to as the 2nd
Amendment Protection Act,
was signed into law. The law
protects firearms and accessories manufactured in Kansas,
owned in Kansas, and that
remained within the borders of
Kansas will not be subject to
any federal law, regulations, or
authority. The bill passed the
Senate on a vote of 35 to 4.
HB 2278 was signed into law
and changes the punishment
for theft of a firearm. One of
the changes is the theft of a firearm valued under $25,000 will
be a level 9, nonperson felony.
The punishment was a misdemeanor if the firearm had a
value less than $1,000.
SB 149 was signed into law.
It requires regulations for
drug testing of applicants or
recipients of cash assistance
programs,
Unemployment
Insurance benefits, and legislators be put in place. If a person
fails a drug test the first time,
benefits will stop until the person completes drug rehabilitation and job training. The second failure to pass a drug test
will stop benefits for 12 months
and until drug rehabilitation
and job training are completed
again. The third failure will
result in the person no longer
being eligible for benefits. The
Senate vote was 29 to 9.
I supported those bills,
however I did not vote for the
Kansas Roofing Contractor
Registration Act, Sub for HB
2024 that was signed into law.
The law requires a roofing
contractor to register with the
Attorney Generals office. The
annual registration fee could be
as much as $500, and a late fee
not exceeding $300. If a registration is not renewed it will be
revoked. In order to restore a
revoked registration, a roofing
contractor will have to pay the
annual fee plus $500. The intent
is to the keep contractors out of
Kansas that are not scrupulous.
While I support the intent of
the law, I do not support the
bureaucracy and fees that may
or may not stop unscrupulous
contractors.
The legislature begins Veto
Session May 8th. The legislature is required to pass a budget
each year and so this will be
a majority of the work during
Veto Session.

Rabbits in gardens are a
perennial problem because
of the wide variety of plants
they can feed on, said K-State
Research and Extension horticulturist Ward Upham. This
time of year, they gravitate to
young vegetables and flowers.

that are rarely bothered including potatoes, tomatoes, corn,
squash, cucumbers and some
peppers.
Fencing can provide a quick
and effective control method for
susceptible plants, said Upham,
who is the coordinator of the
Extension Master Gardener
Program in Kansas.
The fence does not need to
be tall; 2 feet is sufficient for
cottontails, but the mesh must
be sufficiently fine (1 inch or
less) so young rabbits will not
be able to go through it. Support
for the fence can be supplied by
a number of products, but electric fence posts work well, he

said.
In cases where fencing is not
acceptable because it affects
gardens attractiveness, there
are other ways to control rabbits, he said, including repellents, trapping and shooting.
Repellents are often suggested for control, but often do
not last long and require frequent reapplication, Upham
said. Also, many are poisonous
and cannot be used on plants or
plant parts destined for human
consumption.
Live traps can be used to
collect and move the rabbits to

number of baits can be used to
entice the rabbit into the trap,
including a tightly rolled cabbage leaf held together with
a toothpick. However, rabbits
often avoid baits if other attractive food is available, he said.
A motion-activated sprinkler
is another possibility, he added.
These are attached to a garden
hose and release a short burst

that their sprinklers protect up

ACHS girls take league title
BY DANE HICKS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
CENTRAL HEIGHTS – It didnt
come without controversy,
but the ACHS girls track team
brought home a Pioneer League
track title Thursday, topping
closest runner-up Iola by more
than 29 points in overall scoring.
AC managed 157.5 points on
the day to Iolas 128. Wellsville
had 73.5, Central Heights 66,
Prairie View 65 and Osawatomie
63.
But a disparity arose in
the running of the girls 200
meter, when watchers at the
finish line said they clearly
saw ACsAlexandra Garbarino
edge ahead of Iolas Ashley
Cambell. Timers at the finish
however said Campbell was a
stride ahead of Garbarino at
the finish, recording Iolas runner with a time of 26.2 and
Garbarino with 26.5.
AC head coach Mike Sibley
said
the incident was
unfortunate but unintentional.
The officials in charge of
the meet believe that their call
was correct, and this is in earnest- they certainly were not
trying to make the wrong call,
Sibley said. Remember these
are just teachers and parents
who volunteer to help and not
professionals who are being
paid to make the right call, and
that is the way track works
when you are using hand timing on separate watches.
Sibley said the issue was a
good argument for using digital
timers at the leagues meet in
the future.
I guess the worst part is that
no one can prove it in either
direction and the real fault was
that we were not using todays
available technology which
would be conclusive and satisfying for both parties.
Garbarino has another shot
at the event in the upcoming
4A regional at Iola this coming
Friday.

Disappearing fountains are
economical and appealing
MANHATTAN Looking
for something small to add a
focal point to your garden?
Disappearing fountains can
add an aesthetically pleasing
water feature to your yard and
provide a relaxing sound for
your enjoyment. They are easy
to assemble and can be fairly
inexpensive.
The fountain works by
pumping water from a basin,
up through a piece of glazed
pottery or stone. It gently overflows, and then seems to disappear into the ground, giving the
fountain its name, said Cheryl
Boyer, nursery crop specialist with K-State Research and
Extension.
Disappearing
fountains,
compared to other water features, are safe and eye-catching.
They attract birds and wildlife,
and the water is safe for pets to
drink. The fountains are safe
for homes with small children
because, unlike ponds, there is
not an exposed pool of water,
Boyer said. Once installed, they
are easy to clean and maintain.

Discovery of ancient Iceman provides information
Have you ever heard of Otiz
the Iceman or maybe Frozen
Fritz? Otiz was discovered in
1991, eroding out of a glacier in
the Italian Alps near the border between Italy and Austria.
The human remains are of a
late Neolithic or Chalolithic
man who died between about
3350-3300 BC. Because he
ended up in a crevice, his body
was perfectly preserved by
the glacier in which he was
found, rather than crushed by
the glaciers movement in the
last 5,000 years. The remarkable level of preservation has
allowed archaeologists the
first detailed look into clothing, behavior, tool use and diet
of the period.
The Iceman stood about 5
feet 2 inches tall and weighed
about 134 pounds. He was
rather short compared to most
European males of the time,
but sturdily built. He was in
his mid-40s, and his strong leg
muscles and overall fitness
suggests that he may have
spent his life herding sheep
and goats up and down the
Tyrolean Alps. He died about
5,200 years ago, in the late

for local archeology information.
spring. His health was fair for
the period he had arthritis
in his joints and he had whipworm, which would have been
quite painful.
Otiz had several tattoos on
his body, including a cross on
the inside of his left knee; six
parallel straight lines arranged
in two rows on his back above
his kidneys, each about 6
inches long; and several parallel lines on his ankles. Some
archaeologists have argued
that tattooing may have been
some sort of acupuncture.
The Iceman carried a range
of tools, weapons and containers. An animal skin quiver
contained arrow-shafts made
of viburnum and hazel wood,
sinews and spare points. A
copper ax head with a yew haft
and leather binding, a small
flint knife and a pouch with
a flint scraper and awl were
all included in the artifacts
found with him. He carried a
yew bow, and researchers at
first thought Ortiz had been a
hunter-gatherer by trade, but
additional evidence makes it
clear he was a pastoralist a
Neolitic herder.
Ortizs clothing included a
belt, loincloth, and goat-skin
leggings with suspenders. He
wore a bear-skin cap, outer
cape and coat made of woven
grass and moccasin-type shoes
made from deer and bear leather. He stuffed his shoes with
moss and grasses, no doubt for
insulation and comfort.
Ortiz was probably born
near the confluence of the
Eisack and Rienz rivers of
Italy, near where the town
of Brixen is today, but that
as an adult, he lived in the
lower Vinschgau Valley, not
far from where he was eventually found.
Ortizs stomach had cultivated wheat, possibly con-
sumed as bread, game meat,
and dried sloe plums. Blood
traces on the stone arrow
points he carried with him
are from four different people,
suggesting he had participated
in a fight for his life.
Before Ortiz died, he had
suffered two fairly serious
wounds, in addition to a blow
to the head. One was to his
right palm, a deep cut that
occurred between three and
eight days before his death.
The other was a wound in his
left shoulder. In 2001, X-rays
revealed a stone arrowhead
embedded in that shoulder.
They also discovered a
tear in an artery within the
Icemans torso. Ortiz appeared
to have suffered massive bleeding as a result of the tear,
which eventually killed him.
Researchers actually believe
the Iceman was sitting in a
semi-upright position when he
died. Around the time he died,
someone pulled the arrow
shaft out of Ortizs body, leaving the arrowhead still embedded in his chest.

had taken fire from the engine,
and that the whole train would
burn unless the back cars of the
train could be pulled away from
the wreck. The nearest engine
was at Westphalia, and it was
ordered to leave its train and go
to the wreck. More than an hour
and a half must have elapsed
before this engine got to the
scene. The accident was caused
by the breaking in two of the

lay his head at night. I believe
Jesus wanted to show the people of that day there was a
cost to following him. That
carries forward to our present
age. When you pillow your
head tonight and the cares of
the day either fade away or
close in around you consider
what your relationship is to
this Jesus of the Bible. Do
you understand who he was?
Someday Jesus will call for
those who are his. He will
say Come and see. John 1:39.
To others he will say I never
knew you Matthew 7:23.
In Revelation 21 the apostle
John sees a vision into heaven
and says; Then I saw a new
heaven and a new earth, for
the first heaven and the first
earth had passed away, and
there was no longer any sea.
I saw the Holy City, the new
Jerusalem, coming down out
of heaven from God , prepared
as a bride beautifully dressed
for her husband. And I heard
a loud voice from the throne
saying, now the dwelling of
God is with men and he will
live with them. They will be
his people, and God himself
will be with them and be their
God. Jesus who had no place
to lay his head while on this
earth now resides in the Holy
City. Your and my permanent
residence will be determined
by what we do with this Jesus
of the Bible.
Happy Birthday wishes to

in 1958. This year a family
room was added adjoining
the east part of the home
and bedrooms were walled

Pastor Mark is deeply
impressed by the number
of volunteers at any given
event. The parsonage addition was done almost exclusively by volunteers, many
of whom gave one or two
nights weekly for over a half
year and many gave much
more. It is an exciting place
to serve, he said.
Their motto is Following
the Way, Teaching the
Truth and Living the Life
– following after Jesus being
the Way to Heaven, the
Truth about reality, and
the Life we get to live by
being filled with His Spirit.
Its the greatest life in the
world, he added.
