Facebookers savage sheriff over car tint notice
Commenters attack law
officers for new focus on
tinting, safety concerns
BY DANE HICKS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT A Facebook flap over a
county sheriff departments notice on
the legal restrictions of window tinting allowed on vehicles in Kansas last
week became a forum for some teeth
gnashing at local law enforcement,
but county sheriff Vern Valentine
said the criticism doesnt change the
law.
Valentine posted a notice on the
sheriffs department social media page
detailing state law that mandates tinting on vehicle windows allow a minimum of 35 percent of available light to
pass through. Most states have regulations on the amount of tint allowed,
both to allow adequate visibility for
drivers at night and to provide for the
safety of law officers during traffic
stops. Tint also obscures officers from
seeing if drivers are texting while
driving, consuming alcohol or not following seat belt laws.
Valentine told FB followers the
department had new meters that
allowed officers to
check window tinting on vehicles for
compliance,
and
that hed asked deputies to begin giving
warnings to vehicles that tested out
of compliance with
the law, and offered
Valentine
a 30-day grace period for owners to get
offending vehicles rectified.
I am seeing more and more vehicles with blacked out windows, so we
will be pulling vehicles over that have
windows that appear too dark to the
naked eye, Valentine said. The law
applies to all the windows in your
vehicle, not just the front windows.
I am suggesting to the sheriff deputies that they give warning to start
out with along with a time frame of
30 days to remove tint that does not
comply with state law, but it is at their
discretion as this has been a law since
at least 2012.
But the issues of officer safety and
driver visibility were lost on much
of the Facebook audience, with some
of the departments followers criticizing Valentine over the announcement
and saying the move was a pointless
endeavor that took up what should be
more valuable policing time.
Perfect example of we dont know
what to do to make positive change
so we will just do something to make
a useless show, said Dusty Hunt.
Ive always stood with the blue. Their
job is thankless and in many ways
dangerous however with so many
things that paint the police in a negative light on the news these days to
enforce a statute that has absolutely
no impact to a small community like
this other than to just make a greater
number of people lose more faith in
law enforcements legitimacy is ludicrous.
What exactly are you serving and

New flood of paperwork follows
rescheduled Slyter preliminary hearing
More than 30 new subpoenas
issued for witnesses after court
sets new hearing date
BY DANE HICKS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT As a massive felony theft case
in Anderson County court nears its oneyear anniversary, more than two dozen
subpoenas were being returned in recent
weeks after a preliminary hearing set for
March was rescheduled for July.
The flood of documents compelling witnesses to show up for the hearing were
issued by court staff a first time earlier this
year when the case against Marvin Slyter
was scheduled for a first hearing March 21.
A preliminary hearing reviews evidence,
testimony and allegations in a case in order
for the judge to determine whether or not
theres enough evidence to bind a suspect
over for trial.
Now rescheduled to July 25, those subpoenas had to be reissued and served by
county sheriffs deputies, with return proof
of notification delivered
to the court.
The process in this
case is more voluminous
due to the nature of the
allegations. In a 15-page
charging
complaint,
Slyter faces 9 counts of
felony theft of items
Slyter valued between $25,000
and $100,000 belonging
to various individuals,
businesses and the Kansas Department of
Transportation.
All told, prosecutors allege Slyter stole
11 separate pieces of equipment between
2013 and 2019 valued at nearly $500,000,
which were subsequently recovered from
Slyters residence and a relatives property.

Abortion business surges in Kansas
FaIlure of amendment a clinic director at Trust
Women Wichita. Were
brings flood of women located in Kansas, but
we only see about 100
patients a month that are
to end pregnancies
BY FARRAH YOUSRY
WICHITA Some days, the
phones at the Trust Women
Wichita clinic ring nonstop, and staff are unable to
keep up.
Since the U.S. Supreme
Court ended federal protections for abortion last
summer, the clinic has
had a math problem: too
many patients desperate for
care with limited time and
resources to see them.
We are averaging about
500 patients a month, give
or take, said Ashley Brink,

actually from Kansas, the
other 400-plus are from
other states.
In the six months after
the fall of Roe v. Wade, its
been up to each state to set
its own abortion laws. In
Kansas, abortion access
was saved by a ballot vote.
But more than a dozen
other states issued bans or
severe restrictions.
The legal patchwork that
ensued has turned some
states into destinations for
abortion care while others
went dark due to new abortion bans and restrictions.
KANSAS NEWS SERVICE
The overall impact of
these changes is spelled
out in a new report by the
Society of Family Planning,
which supports abortion
rights. The authors found
a more than 6% drop in the
number of legal abortions
nationwide in the months
after Roe was overturned
June 24, 2022.
Researchers
tracked
legal abortions between
July and December 2022,
collecting abortion counts
from 83% of clinics, hospitals and telehealth providers across the country.
That data was compared to
numbers from the months
preceding the Dobbs deciSEE ABORTION ON PAGE 2A
Kelly, Pyle, Olson kill plan to exempt Social Security from tax
Override would have
ended most state taxes
on Social Security
BY DANE HICKS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
TOPEKA Two Senators in
the Kansas Legislature last
week successfully scuttled a
Republican-led effort to override Governor Kellys veto of a
bill which would have exempted most Social Security bene-
fits from Kansas income tax,
and lined up a host of other
tax relief measures as the state
addresses a $3 billion tax-generated revenue surplus.
SB 169 would also have
instituted a simple flat tax of
5.15 percent beginning in the
2024 tax year for Kansas earners, increased the exemption
on taxes for SSI beneifts from
$75,000 to $100,000 adjusted
gross income, ended Kansas
grocery sales tax a year early
and also included additional
property tax cuts for
residential property
owners.
Sen. Dennis Pyle,
a former Republican
from Hiawatha who
turned Independent
when he ran unsuccessfully for governor
last year, and Rob
Olson of Olathe, were
the two holdout votes that cost
the override.
Senate
President
Ty
Masterson fired Olson from
his post as chairman
of the Senate Utilities
Committee a post he
moved Olson to at the
beginning of this session as a result of
Olsons override vote.
The Republicans tax
cuts would have tapped
Kelly
the states $3 billion
surplus to the tune
of $1.4 billion over the next
three years, generally along a
rule that returned tax funds to
Kansans who paid the most in
taxes. Governor Kelly favors
her own plan which would
send all taxpayers a one-time
rebate of $450.
The override fell flat just
as a March jobs report from
the Bureau of Labor Statistics
shows the Kansas economy
lost 4,800 private-sector jobs
in February and March. That
ranked Kansas #49 among the
states, with only Alaska losing a larger portion of its private-sector employment base.
Dave Trabert, director of
the Kansas Policy Institute, a
conservative policy think-tank
based in Wichita, said states
with lower tax burdens consistently outperform on economic
growth and population gains
from domestic migration, and
Kansas is falling farther behind
in its fifth straight decade of
economic stagnation.
Kelly is only too happy
to give enormous subsidies
to a handful of companies,

sion. For the missing pieces,
the authors made estimates
based on historical trends and
nearby clinics.
One of the reports big takeaways for states in the Midwest
and surrounding areas: The
uptick in legal abortions in
states like Kansas, Illinois and
Michigan, was not enough to
make up for the decrease in
states that passed post-Roe
restrictions, like Ohio, Indiana,
Kentucky.
The overall picture is one
of a somewhat chaotic environment in which we know that
the people who have the least
resources are the most burdened and will find it the most
hard to get the care that they
need, said Dr. Alison Norris,
an epidemiologist at Ohio State
University and co-author of the
WeCount report.
Providers and patients
forced to adapt to a new reality
Trust Women clinic in
Wichita has become an abortion haven for women in states
like Texas, Missouri, Kentucky
and Oklahoma where abortion
is banned.
We had to change literally
everything about our organization, Brink said.
They tripled their staff,
added more work days, and
made some difficult cuts to
OB-GYN services and gender-affirming care.
Because we felt like we are
one of the only clinics in the
area that can provide abortion
care, it was really important
to us to shift that gear into
doing 100% abortions, she
said. And thats great for now,
but is it sustainable, long term?
Probably not.
Other states in the Midwest
where abortion is protected,
like Michigan and Illinois, saw
similar spikes in the number
of abortions provided, many
for out-of-state patients who
traveled hundreds of miles for
care, according to the latest
WeCount data.
But contrary to some earlier
predictions, states on the West

LIMITED ACTION CASES FILED
where abortion is protected did
not see significant surges in
abortion numbers, according
to the report, showing that
for most people who needed to
travel for abortion care, driving was the more preferred
method or the more available
path to them, Norris said.
The increased capacity in states like Kansas only
made up for about a quarter
of the decrease in abortions
in states with bans or restrictions in the six months after
Roe fell, Norris said. During
that time, 43,000 fewer abortions took place in states with
bans or severe restrictions,
compared to 11,000 more abortions in states where abortion
remained accessible.
This means that some people have been forced to stay
pregnant and will have a birth
that they didnt intend to
have, Norris said.
The data also suggests that
the number of medication
abortions happening via telemedicine has increased by
more than 130% in December
2022 compared to April 2022.
Telemedicine abortions now
account for 11% of all legal
abortions compared to just 4%
in April a new reality that
abortion providers have had to
adapt to.

OBITUARIES
Colony Christian Church – Ways Will we hear well done
to maximize our service to God
Matthew 20:28 For even
the Son of Man came not to be
served but to serve others and
to give his life as a ransom for
many.
Pastor Chase explained 3
ways that we can maximize our
service to God and other people
using text from Galatians and
Romans.
1. Choose your Master. It
doesnt do any good to fight a
battle if you dont know which
side you are on, who your commander is or for what purpose
you are fighting. Galatians
5:13a For you have been called
to live in freedom, my brothers and sisters We have
freedom from condemnation
and are called to live in that
freedom. Jesus teaches that we
are to do as He does, live as
He lived, serve how he served.
Matthew 20:25-28 You know
that the rulers in this world
lord it over their people, and
officials flaunt their authority over those under them. But
among you it will be different.
Whoever wants to be a leader
among you must be your servant, and whoever wants to be
first among you must become
your slave. For even the Son of
Man came not to be served but
to serve others and to give his
life as a ransom for many.
2.
Determine
your
Motivation. Service can be
defined as faith expressing
itself in love. Galatians 5:13b
But dont use your freedom
to satisfy your sinful nature.
Instead, use your freedom to
serve one another in love. For
the whole law can be summed
up in this one command: Love
your neighbor as yourself.
There you have it folkslove
should be our motivation for
serving. Do not do it begrudgingly as though you are forced
to. Romans 12:9-13 Dont just
pretend to love others. Really
love them. Hate what is wrong.
Hold tightly to what is good.
Love each other with genuine
affection, and take delight in
honoring each other. Never be
lazy, but work hard and serve
the Lord enthusiastically.
Rejoice in our confident hope.
Be patient in trouble, and keep
on praying. When Gods people
are in need be ready to help
them. Always be eager to practice hospitality.
Beware of selfish tendencies. Jesus tells us to put others first. In Mark 9: 35 Jesus
said Whoever wants to be first
must take last place and be the
servant of everyone else.
Let your motivation for serving be out of love and watch out
for self-serving reasons.
3. Measure or weigh your
produce. Serving cultivates
and produces the fruit of the
Spirit (Galatians 5:22-23), love,
joy, peace, patience, kindness,
goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. When
you serve God and others you
are planting seeds that grow
this fruit. Not just in the people
you serve but also in yourself.
And when the fruit of the spirit
starts to grow we begin to live
in the free life that Jesus calls
us to.
Again Romans 12:12-13
Rejoice in our confident hope.
Be patient in trouble, and keep
on praying. Sometimes we
want to serve others by helping them in the way we think
is best, but we may not know
what they really need. Perhaps
we havent listened to them or
taken time to get to know them.
Other times the ones we serve
are not grateful, but we are
taught to be patient and serve
them anyway because thats
what Jesus would do. And keep
on praying.
We dont rent pigs.
But we do all kinds of printing. (785) 448-3121
or depart from me?
In John 14 Jesus speaking
to his disciples tells them he
is going away. He tells them
they know the way to the place
where he is going. Thomas,
ever confused, says, Lord
we dont know where you are
going so how can we know
the way? Jesus then makes
a statement that still creates
controversy, hatred and strive
today. He says, I am the way
and the truth and the life. No
one comes to the Father except
through me. A statement that
today hangs over our head like
bright sunshine or an ominous
cloud.
In Matthew 16:15 Jesus asks
the disciples, Who do you
say that I am? Simon Peter
responds, You are the Christ
the Son of the living God. It
is from this statement that the
church receives her beginning.
Jesus will build his church on
Peters confession. So what
allows Jesus to make this statement? In Revelation 1:18 Jesus
says, I am the First and the
Last. I am the living one; I was
dead and behold I am alive for
ever and ever. And I hold the
keys of death and Hades.
When it is affirmed that
Jesus holds the key of Death
it is plainly implied that none
WEEKLY DEVOTIONAL
BY DAVID BILDERBACK
can pass out of this present
world without his appointment. And, more generally
that Jesus has a thorough control over everything that can
in any way affect the lives of
men. And absolute power over
death, necessarily presupposes a corresponding power over
life and its affairs.
Just how important was
Peters statement? His (Jesus)
identity as the Messiah and
Son of God was the very rock
or foundation on which the
church would be built. Just
how important is our answer
to the, Who do you say I am,
question? Its the difference
when we pass from this life and
face our Savior in what he will
say to us. Well done good and
faithful servant or Depart
from me I never knew you.

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW Tuesday, May 2, 2023
OPINION
To Lefties, its all about kids genitals
Leftist chai latte sippers from Douglas,
Johnson and Shawnee counties who have their
pants in a wad about legislators protecting
womens sports from men are trying to convince Kansans the fallout from the recently
passed law which in a sane world wouldnt
even be needed anyway is going to land
squarely on childrens genitals.
Because, they wail in their creepy All Ages
Drag Show kind of tone, the only way to tell a
kids sex, if push comes to shove, is to molest
him. How positively revealing.
Genitals. School athletics. The moldering
late summer aroma of sweat and football pads.
Reminds me of a story
Seventh grade football was the first time
back when I went to school that we had to get
an athletics physical to play school sports.
There was no Google back then, youngsters, so
there was no way to look up what actually was
going to happen during a hernia check. It was
the 1970s, and our fathers were too busy smoking cigarettes and watching Walter Cronkite
to ask them, so we simply existed in a summer-long state of terror and had to take what
the sadistic 8th graders and high school kids
who themselves had survived this crucible told
us as gospel.
Stories of giant needles, plastic tubes,
glow fuel-burning Cox 049 engine-powered
extraction devices our tormentors laid it on
thick, the same way it was laid on to them
in prior years. It was a legacy to which they
were entitled, having survived it themselves;
a testosterone-defined right of passage that
would prepare us all for the future challenges
of manhood, war and fraternity initiations.
We listened wide-eyed and swallowed it all
hook, line and sphincter. Of course it turned
out to be no big deal if you could turn your
head and cough, that was pretty much it.
So when the time came in 1981 for my physical at the old MEPS building in downtown
Kansas City, I was prepared. Military precision took center stage, and the doctor lined us
up eight across with a change of gloves at the
end of the row, and then back the other direction behind us for the rear hatch inspection.
When you process dozens of recruits a day, you
get pretty good at it.
Doctors are still pretty astute 40 years later,
and they still can pretty much tell if youre
male or female without having you drop your
britches. Theres also a document called a
REVIEW COMMENTARY
DANE HICKS, Publisher
birth certificate. Its used in lots of authentication
exercises to prove who you are and, among other
things, whether youre a pointer or a sitter. Its
required in virtually every list of enrollment documents for kids in public or private schools. And
somewhere on that birth certificate is a definitive
line that lists sex as either/or.
Case closed.
Of course if the doctor who filled out that
document is for some reason in question, theres
always DNA definable via blood or saliva or
some of your other more gross fluids if youve
ever watched a full episode of CSI Miami. DNA
doesnt lie. A boy has one kind, a girl another.
The base assumption from the shrieking sore
losers in the Kansas womens sports debate is
that someone, somewhere, will want to try to pull
one over on a sports team or doctor, lie about
his/her sex, and force authorities to violate both
the individuals privacy and general decency by
taking the most diabolical road imaginable. They
want you to believe someone will force a child to
strip naked and be sexed like baby chicks being
sorted by a farmer.
Its understandable that eyeballing sex organs
would be the default manifestation of the manipulative trans culture this is, afterall, the group
which puts such passionate zeal behind its family friendly drag shows where men dress as
women in sexified performances to which theyd
love to expose as many children as possible in
order to expand their horizons and make them
okay with it. The Soviets called that indoctrination.
Such inspections will never be a part of the justice of protecting womens sports in Kansas, but
that reality wont stop these woman-hating teeth
gnashers from fantasizing about them. ###

Buchanan, Biden top worst U.S. Presidents list
March 4, 1857, was a cool, breezy day in
Washington, D.C. Pennsylvanian James
Buchanan had been elected the 15th President
of the United States with one overriding mandate: keep the United States together.
Buchanan, a bachelor and career politician,
was succeeding the hapless, often intoxicated
Franklin Pierce, who allowed the country to
fall into disarray over slavery. Buchanan was
supposed to fix that.
It started badly. Old Buchs Inaugural
Address was a mealy-mouthed batch of nothing.
All agree that under the Constitution slavery in the states is beyond the reach of any
power …
Foolish blather that engendered joy among
plantation owners in Dixie. The new President
would not confront the evil of slavery. And
thats exactly what happened throughout the
next four years; James Buchanan sat in the
Executive Mansion doing nothing while the
South destroyed any semblance of federal
power.
It is said the White House is haunted. If so,
the ghost of Old Buch must be best friends
with the foggy Joe Biden, the 46th President of
the United States. The two are kindred spirits,
so to speak.
President Bidens mandate is to solve difficult problems like illegal immigration and
racial animus. The truth is he has made those
NATIONAL COMMENTARY
BILL OREILLY, Guest Commentary
vexations far worse, just as Buchanan did
with the slave issue.
The best illustration is the southern border
which is under siege by foreign nationals trying to find a better life in America. On Bidens
watch, nearly seven million migrants have
illegally crossed the border, with thousands
more coming every day. That collapse of federal authority has led to chaos throughout
the country. Just last week, New York City
Mayor Eric Adams, a liberal Democrat, said
the unfettered flow of migrants is destroying
the fabric of the nations largest city.
Bidens open border policy has also led to
a record number of narcotics coming into the
USA, including heroin and fentanyl. In 2022,
the DEA seized 10,000 pounds of fentanyl pow-
der, double the amount seized in 2021.
Of course, drug overdose deaths are at a
record level as well, with hundreds of thousands of Americans dying.
Joe Biden rarely speaks to the press, but his
administration says there is no crisis at the
border. And in the Presidents clouded mind,
there isnt. Like Buchanan, Biden doesnt
want to confront the problem. He will not even
try.
The proof of that is Bidens January meeting with President Obrador in Mexico City.
Obrador has lost control of his country to
the drug cartels. Last year, there were more
than 50,000 murders or disappearances in
Mexico. In the USA, with almost three times
the population, there were 26,000 homicides.
Obrador has no interest in halting drug
trafficking and illegal migration. Mexicans
working in the USA send home an estimated
$60 billion dollars every year. Cartel money
fuels Obradors economy. Outrageously, the
Mexican President even taunts Americans for
consuming narcotics saying the entire criminal mess is our fault.
So you would think Biden would be getting
tough on Obrador, whose administration is
hurting every American. But, no. Bidens trip
to Mexico City looked like an outtake from the
Three Amigos movie. The whole thing was an
SEE OREILLY ON PAGE
Joe Biden prepares his next basement campaign
Joe Biden is going to run for reelection.
One question this raises: How is anyone
going to tell?
The basement presidency is about to
embark on another basement campaign.
Bidens political genius turns out to be not
provoking strong negative emotions because
no one particularly thinks of him as being in
charge or as having anything interesting to
say.
President Biden and the people around him
are, in effect, conducting a large-scale, ongoing political science experiment: Is it possible
to run a left-wing government — with tactics
often frankly at odds with our constitutional
system — and avoid a massive backlash by
having a president at the top who appears
ineffectual and out of touch?
If Bernie Sanders, the ill-kempt, selfavowed socialist, or Elizabeth Warren, the
off-putting, dyed-in-the-wool progressive former academic, presided over exactly the same
administration with exactly the same policies, theyd have ignited a political firestorm
by now.
The cry from the center-right and independents would be, To the barricades! The cry
provoked by Joe Biden is more, Meh.
By being around forever, Biden has
achieved the status of a known quantity. His
rhetoric is generally moderate-sounding, and
he never says anything memorable. No matter
how radical and lawless the acts of his administration, its hard to associate those qualities
with an elderly man who tells stories of his
bygone cooperation with Republicans and
often rambles to little effect.
People should be threatened by this admin-
NATIONAL COMMENTARY
RICH LOWRY, King Features Syndicate
istration, but — with a few exceptions such
as his visually apocalyptic Dark Brandon
speech prior to the midterms — they dont feel
threatened by Biden himself. Or they fear his
incompetence more than anything else.
Bidens age is an asset in taking the edge
off his left-wing governance, yet the effects
of it are obvious for everyone to see. At 80,
he makes the elder statesmen of yore seem
youthful by comparison. Golda Meir became
prime minister of Israel at 70. Ronald Reagan
was elected president at 69. The long-serving
French legend Charles de Gaulle retired permanently at 79.
If the reaction to Joe Biden isnt a vociferous rejection, it is still an emphatic, No,
thanks. According to the new NBC News
poll, more than half of Democrats and 70%
Americans dont want him to run for reelection. His age, of course, is the leading reason;
it doesnt take a gerontologist to realize that
an 80-year-old man and the most demanding
job on the planet arent a natural match.
The White House clearly understands this
as well. President Biden is carefully stage
managed, and sometimes awkwardly reminded of his cues by people with him at events.
His interactions with the press are limited,
and this isnt a media that is out to get him
but is incredibly sympathetic and accommodating.
Biden broke with tradition by not holding a
press conference while on his trip to Ireland.
Hes done 54 interviews so far in his first two
years, according to The New York Times, the
fewest since Ronald Reagan. He has averaged
10 news conferences a year, whereas Calvin
Coolidge — you know, Silent Cal — did about
90 annually during his first two years in
office.
The standard isnt very high, though, when
you are a default candidate. Thats how Biden
won against Donald Trump in 2020; its how
he avoided a midterm drubbing in 2022; and
its how he hopes to win again against Trump,
should he be the nominee, in 2024.
Biden has built on the old adage, Never
interfere with an enemy when hes destroying
himself. His version is basically, Never
bother going out in public when your enemy
is destroying himself.
The lesson of the last couple of years is that
Biden doesnt have to be scintillating, impressive, or inspiring. Heck, he doesnt even have
to be popular. He simply has to be there. To
paraphrase Woody Allen, 90% of getting elected for Joe Biden is just showing up.
His campaign could be barely evident and
still succeed.
Rich Lowry is editor of the National Review.
Age issue isnt all that makes
Biden v. Trump rematch
an exercise in lame
President Biden was inaugurated at age 78
and is supposed to complete his first term at
age 82. He is the oldest president in U.S. history. Many, even within his own party, say he is
too old to carry this responsibility.
Republicans have been especially vocal
about Bidens age. Which could be kind of
awkward if they have to get behind Donald
Trump if he is the GOP candidate for the 2024
presidential election, because he would be 78
years old when sworn in for a second term in
office, completing that term at age 82. In fact,
he would be a few months older than the too
old Biden.
Are we seriously on the path to another
Trump vs. Biden race for president? Is that the
best our nation can do?
Youre telling me that Joe Biden is the
absolute best candidate in the entirety of
the Democratic party? And former President
Trump, who lost his re-election bid to, of all
people, Joe Biden, is the absolute best candidate in the national field for the Republican
Party?
Seriously?
Even without the age situation, thats lame.

HISTORY
Mystery tour takes us to down south
Remember me saying, its
springtime and time for Kay
and I to travel? On Tuesday
18 April we returned home
after a 6 day Mystery Trip with
Heritage Tours out of Yoder,
Ks.
On April 11 we left Garnett,
heading for Hutchinson, Ks.
to spend the night in a motel
there as we had an early bus
departure the next morning.
As we drove out we couldnt
help but notice all the irrigation already going on because
of such dry weather. Streams,
ponds & rivers virtually dried
up.
Day 1: Our bus, with 50 of us
aboard left Yoder at 7:25 am.
Just south of Wichita, Ks.we
saw a mother eagle sitting on
a very large nest. Hundreds
of wind farms as we traveled
along. Crossed into Oklahoma
at 8:50 am. Our morning break
stop was at the Tonkawa
Trading Post in Tonkawa,
OK. Passed Keystone Lake
at 11:00 and around Tulsa at
11:15. Lunch was at an Amish
Restaurant in Muskogee, OK.
At 3:15 our afternoon break
was at a nice rest area outside
of Ozark, Arkansas. We soon
passed thru the path of the tornado of March 24, 2023. Winds
were clocked at 170mph, 3/4

Almost everything was a total
loss. Arrived at our motel at
5:20 pm, the Holiday Express
Inn west Little Rock, Arkansas.
Our day wasnt over as we went
to the Murrays Theatre for dinner and a comedy stage show.
Day 2: On the road at 8:25.
Our first stop of the day was at a
Loves Station in Lake Village,
Arkansas. Crossed the Mighty
Mississippi River and the
Mississippi state line at 11:20
am. Lunch in Vicksburg, Miss.
Started raining, water, water,
every where. 4:30 Welcome to
Louisiana. Louisiana is known
for dairy, oysters & strawberries. 5:00 pm we visited a Tea
Farm. What an interesting tour
and enjoyed a fresh cup of tea
in the tea room Fleur Delis
Tea Company
Our next to last stop was at
the Hammond, La. Holiday Inn.
We had dinner at Middedarfs
Restaurant before returning to
our motel for the night.
Day 3: Left the motel at
8:40, today we had two tour
guides on our bus. We were let
know right away, we were in
the Strawberry Capital of the
South. Our first stop of the day
was at the Rival Art House in
Ponchatoula, La. ( White Moss
or Hanging Hair). Lunch was at
Pauls Place. Everywhere you
looked they were setting up for
the Strawberry Festival. They
were expecting 30,000 to attend.
I got to hug the 2023 Strawberry
Queen Kirstin Drozd. At 2:15pm
we paid a visit to the Global
Wildlife Preserve 900 acres and
2,500 animals. We even got to
see a 3 week old baby giraffe.
While there we went on a tractor/wagon ride for an hour.
Everyone had their own pellets to feed the wild animals as
we traveled along.
Dinner today was at Salty
Joes BBQ before retiring for
the day.

Richmond Resale owner
Winston Jamescupp slammed
local law enforcement over its
prioritie, saying he himself was
a victim of theft
So this is what we need to waste
our time on?, Jamescupp said.
I had $14,000 worth of stuff
stolen from me and you guys
caught the guy, knew who did
it and never charged him but I
as an actual upstanding citizen
need to worry about what you
think is too dark of a window
for me to drive safely with.
A few commenters saw the safety issue from the officers side.
Why do people act like this
is some kind of new law?,
said Haley Morrison. With so
many people against the blue,
the tint is a safety hazard for
them not being able to see in
as much as for the driver to see
out at night. Morrison said the
sheriff was under no obligation
to post the warning, and could
have directed officers to simply
start writing tickets.
Stop crying about a law

years in the entire state and..I

about taxpayers and the states

vetoing legislation that gives
everyone a break on income,
sales, and property taxes once
again demonstrates her determination to grow government
with unnecessarily high taxes.
Governor Kelly said that
SB 169 was fiscally unsustainable, but Trabert said an anal-
ysis from Kansas Legislative
Research showed that after
four years of SB 169 being
implemented, Kansas would
still have a $1.7 billion surplus,
assuming spending continued
to increase by $1 billion over
the next four years.
No one can look at these
numbers and pretend that SB
169 was unstainable, Trabert
said. Fiscal responsibility wasnt the issue for Kelly
and the legislators who voted
against the bill.

when crews obviously working. Its Kansas law, he noted,
the reduced work zone speed
limit on highways applies all
the time it is posted and fines
are double. That is regardless
of the time or whether construction is happening at that
moment.
Workers come and go in
vehicles that need to be able
to slow down or stop when
entering and exiting the
work site, with construction
shifting from place to place.
Sometimes, work is required
to take place at night or on
weekends, and sometimes its
not.
Its a very fluid situation, said Duane Flug, KDOT
District Five Construction
and Materials Engineer based
in Hutchinson. He has spent
years inspecting highway
construction in Wichita-area
work zones.
Flug noted that once the
reduced work zone speed limit
gets posted, its not practical
or safe to move the speed
limit signs.

OREILLY…
But the reduced speed limit
is there just as much to protect
the people traveling through
the work zone, said KDOTs
Nick Rogers. In fact, most
people injured in work zone
crashes are motorists.
Rogers, KDOTs Senior
Traffic Control Engineer,
explained that there are many
reasons to heed the lower
speed limit in a work zone.
The roadway might be temporarily altered — to channel
traffic differently, in a more
confined space. The area just
off the roadway might be excavated during the construction. Construction equipment
might have to exit or enter.
Motorists who slow down
to the posted speed and pay
attention are more likely to
avoid a collision.
Another thing a motorist
might consider: Aside from
the risks of speeding in a work
zone, if the aim of driving faster is to get some place sooner,
speeding doesnt accomplish
much. For example, speeding
up to 65 mph from 55 mph
saves only one minute in a
6-mile trip.
In 2022, 13 people died in
Kansas work zone crashes, and
341 suffered injuries, KDOT
figures show. Nationwide,
speed was a contributing
factor in about one-third of
fatal work zone crashes the
last several years, according
to the U.S. Department of
Transportation. In addition,
about one-fifth of all the deadly work zone crashes involved
rear-end collisions.
Rogers acknowledged that
some motorists might think
the lower speed limit applies
"
TOPEKA – With highway work
picking up across Kansas this
spring, motorists should be
slowing down in work zones.
Highway work zones span
the length of the construction
area. The work zone begins
with the Road Work Ahead
sign and ends with the End
Roadwork sign. Work zones
are marked with additional
signs, including a reduced
speed limit. The lower speed
limit is to help protect contractors construction crews,

workers and inspectors. In
some places, those workers
toil inches away from onrushing vehicles — with only a traffic cone or temporary barrier

students to entrepreneurship.

in Manhattan, Kansas on April

money. The students work
was judged by local and regional professionals. This is the
second time Anderson County
E-Community has brought this
competition to Colony.
The YEC Series helps students learn valuable life skills
such as creative problem solving and confidently presenting
their ideas to others. The classroom learning and mentorship
they receive in preparation of
competing in their local YEC
Series event can also help students feel more connected to
their communities and help
them identify a need they could
fill in their own city or county, says Amara Kniep, Product
Manager,
E-Community
Programs.
During the 2022-2023 season, over 1,000 students from
61 Kansas schools participated
in 51 locally hosted entrepreneurship competitions as part
of the YEC Series. The 20222023 academic year marks the
tenth annual YEC Series coordinated by NetWork Kansas
E-Community Partnership.
The annual YEC Series culminates in a statewide championship, where the top students
from each local competition
face off against each other for

University plant pathologists
say other factors may be contributing to yellowing in the
2023 crop.
One thing thats been interesting this year and with the
dry conditions weve had in
Kansas is that such factors
as low (soil) pH levels begin to
show up, said Dorivar Ruiz
Diaz, a soil fertility specialist with K-State Research and
Extension.
Weve seen some situations
related to aluminum toxicity,
which happens when pH levels
are low enough for aluminum
to become soluble in the soil,
and basically creating toxicity to the root system. So, we
end up with very short, affected
roots. That combined with the
dry conditions leads to symptoms that may be similar to
nutrient deficiencies.
Ruiz Diaz said the condi-
Plant pathologist Kelsey
Andersen Onofre said yellow
wheat can also be a result of
disease affecting the plant.
Diseases found in Kansas wheat
often include soilborne mosaic virus, spindle streak mosaic virus, barley yellow dwarf
virus, leaf rust, stripe rust and
wheat streak mosaic virus.
As temperatures warm,
however, barley yellow dwarf
wheat streak mosaic virus and
the rusts become more of a concern, she said.
With harvest about two
months away, theres very little that producers can do with
wheat that is affected by low
soil pH or hit by disease. Ruiz
Diaz said producers may be
able to take corrective action
for mobile nutrients like nitrogen or sulfur, but for the long
term, they should still plan to
test the soil so that they can
prevent problems with a future
years crop.
tissue test combined with a soil
test is a good way to find out
the limiting factors. We may
be able to do something about
it in-season, but in most cases,
the information is going to be
relevant for the next season.
Andersen Onofre said virus
testing through the K-State
plant disease diagnostic lab can
also help producers with a crop
insurance adjustment.
For future years, she
adds, its good to think now
about variety selection. If you
had some fields where youve
had history (of disease) its
important to be mindful of variety resistance for those viruses.
K-State publishes an annual
Wheat Variety Guide to help
producers with variety selections. Information on soil tests
and more regarding wheat production in Kansas is available
at local extension offices.

Summer travel season could be busiest
ever, surpassing pre-pandemic numbers
WICHITA, Kan. – Were a month
away from the Memorial Day
holiday and the unofficial kickoff to what could be a very
busy summer for travel. On
top of AAA reporting a significant increase in international
travel bookings this year(up
200% compared to 2022), the
TSA is now warning travelers
that summer airline passenger
levels are expected to be comfortably above pre-pandemic
numbers. DespiteBusy airport
screen shot.JPG airline ticket
prices running 20 to 30% higher than 2022, Delta Airlines
reports a record number of
advance bookings for summer
travel.
Will Memorial Day holiday
weekend travel be above the
pre-pandemic numbers of 2019?
AAAs official holiday forecast
numbers wont be out for a few
more weeks, but the auto club
is warning travelers to prepare
for busy roads, rails and skies
this summer.
No surprise, for travelers
who want the best choice of
options for their vacation,
now is the best time to book
a summer trip, says Shawn
Steward, spokesman for AAA
Kansas. Waiting too long
could mean sold-out cruises or
tours and limited availability
for hotel rooms.
Thats not to say there arent
opportunities to save money
for those who have flexible
schedules and arent set on a
certain destination. AAA travel data from 2022 showed that
people who booked closer to
their departure date paid less,
and theres a good chance travelers could find last-minute
deals again this summer if they
dont mind flying on off-peak
days and hours.
10 things for travelers to
think about while planning
and flying this summer:
When booking, aim for the
first morning flight. Its more
likely to depart on time because
mornings have less air traffic
congestion and fewer weather
delays, especially in the summer. Early flights also give you
more flexibility if there is a
Motorcycle
safety is
everyones
responsibility
Topeka The Kansas
Department of Transportation
is teaming up with law
enforcement across the state
to highlight Motorcycle Safety
Awareness Month during May
and remind motorists that
motorcyclist safety is everyones responsibility.
The end of May ushers in
the unofficial start of the summer road travel season. Safe
driving and riding practices for
all road users drivers and
riders alike are critical to
help reduce motorcycle/vehicle
crashes.
"Everyone on the road has a
role to play in reducing motorcycle fatalities. Vehicle drivers
and motorcyclists need to share
the road and treat each other
with respect and courtesy,
said Robyn Meinholdt, KDOT
Behavior Safety Coordinator.
Drivers need to look twice for
bikes. Motorcyclists can help
improve their own safety and
visibility with protective gear
and a DOT-compliant helmet.
A total of 726 people were
injured in the 814 crashes involving a motorcycle in
Kansas in 2022, according to
current KDOT data. In addition,
47 of those crashes were fatal,
with 50 people losing their lives.
According to the National
Highway
Traffic
Safety
Administration, speeding and
alcohol impairment play significant roles in motorcycle-involved crash fatalities across
the nation.
Traffic safety is critical to all
motorists, including those driving motorcycles, Meinholdt
said. It doesnt matter if you
are traveling in a vehicle or on
a motorcycle, all drivers need to
follow posted speed limits and
not drive if impaired. It can be
the difference between life and
death.
Motorcyclists are encouraged to complete a rider education and training course to
learn more ways to increase
safety for everyone on the roadways. For more information on
motorcycle safety, visit www.
nhtsa.gov/road-safety/motorcycles.

delay or cancellation and you
need to reschedule.
Reserve airport parking
ahead of time to save time on
your departure day.
With the TSA projecting
pre-pandemic numbers this
summer, its key to arrive at
the airport at least 2 hours
before domestic flights, 3 hours
before international flights.
Remember, international hubs
will be extra packed with passengers this season.
Sign up for TSA PreCheck
or Clear to speed up the security process.
Avoid checking a bag.
Carry-on luggage allows you
to be more flexible if theres a
delay or cancellation.
Make sure your phone is
fully charged. Download the
airlines app to receive notifications, and use FlightAware
to track your aircraft the day
of departure.
Know your passenger
rights. Read the airlines
Condition of Carriage online
to understand how you are protected in case of delays, cancel-
lations, and misconnections.
Have your confirmation
number or record locator
handy, in case theres a delay
or cancellation and you need
to rebook quickly. If youre
trying to reach the airline by
phone, try their international
numbers or rewards numbers,
which can sometimes answer
faster.
Weather is an Act of
God not the fault of the airline and travelers may be
on their own to rebook flights.
An advantage of working with
a trusted travel agent is that
they can help you with rebooking options. AAA offers complimentary emergency travel
assistance for travelers who
worked with an advisor.
If a flight is canceled due
to what is in the control of
the airline, like a mechanical
issue, the airline is responsible for rebooking passengers
and providing some amenities,
like food or lodging. For information, see the DOT website:

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW Tuesday, May 2, 2023
Lancers remain undefeated,
sweep NE-Arma on the road
ARMA Crest wins another
doubleheader easily with a 10-0
win and a 10-3 win last week on
the road.
The Lancers opened the
doubleheader with 6 runs in
the first inning and 3 more in
the second to take an early 9-0
advantage.
NE-Arma would play much
better on defense over the final
three innings but couldn't get
anything going offensively in
the 10-0 loss.
The Lancers had just 7 hits
in the game. Rogan Weir was
the only player with multiple
hits as he went 2-3 in the game.
Holden Barker went deep,
hitting his 2nd home run of the
season, with his one hit driving
in a pair of runs and scored
twice in the game as well.
On the mound it was another impressive performance by
Trevor Church. He pitched 3
1/3 innings, allowed no hits
and struck out 10. Jack White
closed out the final 1 2/3
innings, allowing just 1 hit and
striking out a pair.
In the second game, the
Lancers jumped out to a 6-0
lead, with 3 runs in each of the
3rd and 4th innings, en route to
a 10-3 win.
Barker would hit his 3rd
home run of the season in the
late game, driving in 3 runs
and scoring 3 as well.
Stetson Setter also went
deep, his 4th home run, and
drove in 2 runs and scored 3
times.
Weir would go 2-4, score one
run and drive in 3 in the game.
Setter also was the starting
pitcher in the game pitching 3
innings, allowing no hits but
did walk 4 batters and allowed
one earned run.
Vikings long distance runners continue to lead team Lancers move to 12-0
lap races but their win in 4×400
gives us yet another option
and something to look at as we
move into the championship
meets in a few weeks.
Prosser
concluded,
Ultimately, as the season
winds down, event placement
becomes more of a priority.
Thankfully, we still have a lot
of possibilities and everyone is
still working to solidify their
best change events.

Vikings lose pair to Osage City
RICHMOND Osage City
improved to 13-2 as the Central
Heights Vikings dropped to
10-6 after a pair of tough losses
at home.
In the first game, Osage City
blanked the Vikings 4-0. All
of Osage City's runs came in a
4-run top of the 2nd inning.
The Vikings were limited to two hits in the game.
Both Nick Schultz and Carter
Kimball connected on a pair of
singles.
Kreig Garrett pitched 4
innings, allowed 4 hits, struck
out 4 and allowed 4 earned
runs.
Nick Schultze pitched
one hitless inning in relief
and Luke Burkdoll went two
innings without allowing any
hits.
In the second game, the
Vikings took the lead in the
bottom of the first inning with
a pair of runs. They would be
p
t
r
o
ahead or tied until the sixth
inning.
With Osage City trailing 3-2,
they notched 2 runs in the top
of the 6th to jump on top 4-3 and
tacked on 3 more in the seventh for a 7-3 advantage. The
Vikings tried to rally in the
bottom half but came up short
scoring just 2 runs to end the
game 7-5.
Caden Newell paced the
Vikings with 3 hits. Conner
Peel and Aydan Dunbar each
had multi-hit games as well
with 2 apiece. Peel also scored
twice and drove in a run.
Dunbar was solid in starting, pitching 5 innings, allowing a pair of hits and striking
out 7 while giving up just 1
earned run.
Defense let the relief pitchers down as three of the five
runs scored in the final two
innings were unearned.

IOLA Last Tuesday the
Anderson County boys and
girls traveled to Iola for the
Marv Smith Invitational and
each came away with second
place finishes in a meet that
was dominated in both categories by Chanute.
Chanute boys finished the
afternoon with a staggering
239.5 points to win easily as
the Bulldogs placed second
with 121 points. The girls of
Chanute scored 186.5 points
followed by the AC girls with
118 points on the day.
The AC girls had a lone gold
on the day by Rilyn Sommer
in high jump as she cleared 5'.
The boys had Easton
Wettstein win gold in the 400
meter run (56.58) and Tucker
Nelson in the 1600 meter run
(4:48.59) as the only boys to
finish first.

PLEASANTON It was another sweep, both by the final tally
of 11-0, over Pleasanton as the
Crest Lancers continue their
perfect start to the season.
The first game went 5
innings as Crest closed it out
with 5 runs in the fourth and
3 in the fifth inning to win via
the mercy rule.
Jensen Barker led the
Lancers with 3 hits in 3 at-bats
and scored twice.
Stetson Setter hit his 5th
homer of the season, drove in 2

gives us the added boost that
we need and at times we find
ourselves on an island. Connor
(Burkdoll) has found himself
without much in the way of
direct competition for most of
the season yet he still finds a
way each and every week to
put in a new top four or five
race of his career in the 3200.
He dropped his 1600m time
yet again and is amongst the
best in the state for all sophomores. Prosser added.
Both Dunbars (Arabella
and Aydan) also posted a slew
of personal records and are
competing near the tops of
their events in their freshmen
season. Our throwers also continue to improve week after
week with another four PRs by
Aubrie, Ava, Alaina and Max,
Prosser stated.
As the team experiments
with different events with the
idea of qualifying for state,
Coach Prosser put a group of
his usual long distance runners to the test in a 4×400 meter
relay.
It turned out to be a fun
experiment. Normally our

RICHMOND In track and
field the results as a team can
often be misleading as to how
a team performs on a certain
day as the goal is to improve
each week on your own personal times and last week was
a prime example of that for
the Central Heights Vikings
squads.
Overall as a team, the boys
finished 5th overall and the
girls were 11th at the JayhawkLinn meet but the team as
a group set 20 new personal
records and a pair of season
bests on the day.
Sometimes its easy to fall
into patterns and have a let
down now and then but we
have been very fortunate to
have continued improvement
across the board for effectively the entire season, Viking
head coach Troy Prosser stated. While we generally watch
races, throws and jumps and
see direct competition, the tape
measure and timing systems
are the true metric by which
we can judge performance.
Competition is important
as that is what can push an
