Commisioners to consider new
solar regs amid year-long pause
BY DANE HICKS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT Anderson County
Commissioners on Monday
heard a draft outline from
county planning director Tom
Young on solar field regulations that would include limitations on the number of
acres in a solar installation in
Anderson County and possibly
put a limit on the total acres
that can be consumed by those
projects countywide.
Anderson
County
Commission Chairman Les
McGhee also said setback
requirements the amount of
buffer space required between
the perimeter of an installation and the nearest residential
property would also be on
the table as commissioners and
members of the countys planning board begin to assemble
policies that woule apply to any
solar installations under development within the confines of
the county.
Youngs outline proposal
comes as Anderson County
enters its 7th month of a oneyear moratorium on solar
developments, a buffer period
that began in September 2023
when commissioners said they
wanted time to study the issue
and its possible impacts in
Anderson County.
Those issues align basically
along two fronts proponents
who say renewable energy
from sunlight and wind is the
future and which under the
current federal tax credit subsidy system helps guarantee
lease revenue for farmers, and
opponents who say renewable
energy takes valuable agriculture land out of production and
can't stand on its own without
heavy government assistance,
while blighting the landscapes
for hundreds or even tens of
thousands of acres in the areas
where they are constructed.
Solar farms have been as contentious as wind farms in some
rural areas.
While Anderson Countys
moratorium has been in place,
controversy has raged in nearby Franklin County over a
proposed solar development
there and other counties have
taken steps to significantly limit both wind and solar
operations. Douglas County
Commissioners in April
approved a conditional use permit for a 1,100 acre solar farm to
be built north of Lawrence, but
earlier this month codified a
2,500 foot setback requirement
in its wind farm regulations
thats broadly viewed as a poison pill for wind development
in the county.
Shawnee County approved a
one-year moratorium on solar
developments last week and
a year-long ban on industrial
scale wind energy projects.

Oliver says law allows
McClain to do knockand-talk in probe
BY DANE HICKS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT Attorneys for the
prosecution and defense in
a major local theft case will
debate the validity of a search
warrant and the evidence it produced at a June 17th Anderson
County District Court hearing,
after the prosecution filed an
answer last week to a defense
motion to suppress the search
warrant and its resulting evidence.
Attorneys for Marvin Slyter
said the search warrant executed by Anderson County
Undersheriff Wes McClain was
fraudulent because it failed to
address a prior visit he had
made to Slyters property
during the 2019 investigation of
numerous pieces of farm equipment reported stolen and later
recovered on Slyters property. Evidence gained from the
faulty warrant amounts to
fruit of the poisonous tree,
Slyters lawyers maintain, and
therefore can't be introduced as
evidence in his prosecution.
But in her response to that
motion last week, Anderson

Oliver argued there was no
case law that would define
McClains actions during the

FROM PAGE 1
a 1999 junior at ACHS, said
she was scared something like
that could happen at her school
would support stricter security,
including having guards in the
school. She told the Review in
1999, Teachers have a responsibility to let parents know how
their kids are doing, especially if a student writes a morbid
essay or desires to hurt others.
A quarter century after the
article, Nikki is a mother of
three sons and still feels the
same way. When asked if our
kids are any safer now than students were in 1999, she responded, I believe there are far more
safeguards and awareness in
place to help notice escalating
potential threats, and most
importantly, there are plans for
dealing with the most likely of
scenarios. The advancement
of criminal minds, technolo-
gy, and global opportunities
far extend our capabilities of
keeping our kids, safer. Her
sentiment is echoed every time
the first bell rings and the front
door locks to outside visitors
unless approved through the
administrative office entrance.
School
administrators
now pledge zero tolerance for
threats against the school.
Even when found unsubstantiated, every threat is investigated. Emails are sent during
the school year when events
occur that could have harmed
a student, another program
result of a post-Columbine
world. Active shooter drills
occur yearly in schools, an
attempt to educate students to
take their safety into concern,
another effort to prevent another Columbine tragedy. Twentyfive years later, we are hearing
the echoes of Columbine in our
lives.

roll call was answered by 18
members. There were also 3
leaders. There were also 9 parents present. On May 22 the

the program, Tyler Oberly
had a Lego parrot to show to
the club and Aaliyah Herald
told us about her steer. Rowan

In the letter to the Hebrews
the author states in 10:25, Let
us not give up meeting together as some are in the habit of
doing, but let us encourage one
another and all the more as
you see the Day approaching.
What the writer is referring to
is after the birth of the church at
Pentecost in Acts 2 the church
began to meet in small groups
and in homes. Evidently as
time passed the believers had
dispersed, some due to persecution and others became disillusioned or apathetic. We
see the same affect today in
the aftermath of the pandemic. Many people have turned
to on-line services. These were
necessary for many who were
elderly or compromised in their
health and most churchs were
able to provide church services
on-line.
Two important elements
however are impossible to replicate. The greeting time shared
by those present and the sharing of communion. The greeting time allows us to encourage
one another and to share in
Christian love with one another. It is here we bond with other
believers who share our joys
and concerns and where we see
people just like ourselves experiencing the same difficulties
we have been dealing with and
overcoming them.
The sharing of the elements
is also more meaningful in a
church setting. Sharing the
body and blood of Jesus Christ
in unison with other believers
brings us before the face of God
and allows us to cleanse ourselves of our sin in a corporate
manner.
The last sentence in the text
reads, and all the more as
you see the Day approaching.
In this text Day is capitalized
because it refers to a specific
day.
That day is the return
of Jesus Christ. If you are not
attending church or have never
attended this text should give
you pause for thought. That
day will be the most important day in your and my life as
Jesus will be returning for his
church.

OPINION
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW Tuesday, May 21, 2024
Homelessness: Big cash for the new Covid
Winston Churchill is credited as coining the
phrase Never let a good crisis go to waste and
the ideology was warmly embraced by those
yearning for power and dollars during the Covid
Pandemic.
But with Covid hysteria now deflated, government and its vaunted Renfield-like legions
of public/private nonprofit organizations have
seized on the next new over-reactionary crisis of
their own making homelessness as the new
great horizon of opportunity.
Indeed, new government and nonprofit initiatives have roided up the core value of Christian
charity and air-dropped themselves into the
public forefront to valiantly and emotionally
take up arms – and public dollars – against this
enemy. Indeed, their attack on the problem
reaches a degree almost equaled by the invasion
of ramshackle tent cities, drug addicts and mentally deranged neer-do-wells themselves who
are indulged and encouraged by these public
offerings. As an abundance of caution was the
rallying cry for the army of Fauci-esque heroes
of Covid, so too will an abundance of caring be
the catchphrase for the massively public funded and oh-so-emotionally compelling regulated
solutions forthcoming from the heartfelt orthodoxy.
Already, the Kansas landscape is replete with
public funds-burning paramedics rushing to
the scene with prescriptions of tax money and
government-issued dignity like dropping the
term homeless and replacing it with people
experiencing homelessness in order to treat
the victims of the new virus:
Kansas Housing Resources Corporation
(KHRC) is a self-supporting, nonprofit, public
corporation that serves as the primary administrator of federal housing programs for the state
of Kansas. KHRC delivers solutions to those who
are working to end the housing crisis in Kansas,
claims one such social media website. The corporations vision can only be achieved when all
Kansans have the support and resources they need
to achieve their goals, no matter where they are in
their housing journey.
From where will those resources come?
Conscripted from those with homes of course,
although those providers will have no input on
policies or procedures or the rules by which
their money is spent.
And theres the new Eastern Kansas homeless
mecca of Lawrence/Douglas County, where city
and county officials plan to spend $100 million
over the next decade to end homelessness:
The Kansas State Homeless Coalition, Inc.
(KSHC) is a not-for-profit organization based in
Lawrence, KS. says its website. Our work is
REVIEW COMMENTARY
DANE HICKS, Publisher
to coordinate with communities throughout the
state to provide advocacy, training, education,
and support in an effort to end homelessness in
Kansas. We also provide remote services to those
experiencing homelessness in areas with limited
resources.
There is also the Kansas arm of the National
Alliance To End Homelessness, a non-profit
organization committed to preventing and ending
homelessness in the United States.
Under these and other funding umbrellas
local organizations thrive, each with paid staff
to help organize volunteer initiatives, develop
sponsore partners and write more grants to tap
the behemoth of the ever-borrowed federal budget. Theres the Coalition to End Homelessness
in Wichita/Sedgwick County; The Kim Wilson
Housing Project in Kansas City, Kansas, for
the chronically homeless; Hillcrest Transitional
Housing for Johnson & Wyandotte counties;
The Butler Homeless Initiative in El Dorado;
The Wyandotte County Emergency Assistance
Coalition; Topekas Justice, Unity and Ministry
Project (JUMP) has seized its new homelessness
initiative to advocate for a low barrier homeless shelter; and the list goes on.
No one knows the total fiscal drain of the
myriad of homelessness projects in Kansas, but
a wad of 41 million new dollars was announced
earlier this month as earmarked for the state
enroute from the U.S. Department of Housing
and Urban Development to end homelessness.
Assuredly, the effort to end homelessness
has been an abject and unmitigated failure.
Homeless populations in the United States have
increased 6% since 2017. Kansas is seeing the
increase as well particularly in its politically blue cities like Lawrence, where homelessness increased 51% between 2020 and 2023. This
despite record levels of funding devoted to endSEE HICKS ON PAGE 5

Schiff in the next election for the U.S. House of
Representatives from the once great and now
floundering state of California. But me influencing his election isnt representing his constituency. I think thats a problem. Im not sure
why big dollar donors from out of state should
be interfering with our election. I think for the
most part Ill be keeping my money in Kansas
and devoting my money and energy to replacing
Sharice Davids and Laura Kelly. That would be
a huge improvement and I encourage others to
do the same.

NFL coddles thugs, disavows Butkers values of faith, family
The National Football League is full of wife
beaters, drunk drivers, and womanizers, but the
league is offering its harshest words to a man
who is a devout Catholic, faithful husband, and
devoted father.
In a statement this week, NFL senior vice
president and chief diversity and inclusion
officer Jonathan Beane denounced Kansas
City Chiefs placekicker Harrison Butker for a
commencement speech he gave at Benedictine
College in Atchison, where he extolled the virtues of getting married and having children
while living out the teachings of the Catholic
Church.
Harrison Butker gave a speech in his personal capacity, Beane said. His views are not
those of the NFL as an organization. The NFL
is steadfast in our commitment to inclusion,
which only makes our league stronger.
Heres the apparently uninclusive remarks
that Butker gave to an audience of Catholic
graduates, as a Catholic himself:
I think it is you, the women, who have had
the most diabolical lies told to you, Butker
said. Some of you may go on to lead successful
careers in the world, but I would venture to
guess that the majority of you are most excited
about your marriage and the children you will
bring into this world. I can tell you that my
beautiful wife Isabelle would be the first to say
that her life truly started when she started living her vocation as a wife and as a mother. He
also offered a passing remark that was critical of
(gay) Pride Month.
That the NFL would see fit to issue a pub-
NATIONAL COMMENTARY
JEREMIAH POFF WASHINGTON EXAMINER
lic statement in response to a Catholic player
giving a commencement address with Catholic
themes at a Catholic college is astonishing,
especially given how silent the league typically
is about player conduct.
Rashee Rice, a teammate of Butkers, has
faced a tumultuous offseason of his own making.
Rice was arrested after a multivehicle crash
occurred in Texas. He is also under investigation in connection to the assault of a photographer at a Dallas nightclub. But while the NFL
has time to comment on Butkers commencement address to a Catholic college, it has no
interest in weighing in on another Chiefs player
who is accused of multiple crimes.
But the irony of the leagues statement is that
it is deliberately exclusive. Butker gave a speech
that was well received by its Catholic audience,
many of whom are no doubt fans of the Chiefs
and other NFL teams. Implicit in Beanes statement is a disrespect for those who adhere to the
teachings of the Catholic Church and hold traditional beliefs about family.
In a letter to the NFL, the organization
CatholicVote called out this inconsistency.
We understand not every American, or NFL
fan for that matter, may share the same opinions or beliefs as Mr. Butker, CatholicVote
President Brian Burch wrote. We are hopeful, however, that you do not intend to send
a message to Catholics, or to those that still
uphold basic moral tenets of a civilized society,
that they are outsiders and no longer welcome.
To paraphrase a famous quote from NBA star
Michael Jordan, Catholics watch NFL games,
too.
If the NFL is serious about being a league
for everyone, it should first start with taking
a stronger stance against players who commit
actual crimes and do more to harm the leagues
image than any commencement address to a
Catholic college could. Secondly, it should publicly affirm that those who adhere to the Catholic
faith and all of its tenets, including Butker, are a
welcome part of the NFL community.
The league should start by following the
lead of Butkers teammate, Chris Jones, who,
in a post on X, stood by his teammate amid the
controversy and said, I love you [Butker]! My
brotha.

The Washington Examiner.
Bidens bobble on Israel makes Trump into giant of statesmanship
Its bad enough that President Joe Biden is
playing politics with the war in Gaza, but even
worse — at least for his purposes — that he is
doing it so poorly.
Biden may imagine that he is maneuvering
with incredible skill — subtly balancing geopolitics, alliance management and domestic imperatives –when he is really upsetting all sides in the
course of further undermining his already-rickety presidency.
This is less Otto von Bismarck than Jimmy
Carter minus the Camp David Accords.
A couple of centuries after Machiavelli
warned against the allure of a fence-straddling
neutrality and counseled instead being either
a true friend or downright enemy, Joe Biden
is sort of, but not completely with Israel and
certainly not with Hamas, but not in favor of
the terror group getting destroyed with all due
dispatch, either.
The way Bill Clinton once put it in the aftermath of Sept. 11 is that when people are insecure, theyd rather have somebody who is strong
and wrong than someone whos weak and right.
Biden is weak and wrong, and hes not doing
himself any favors.
First of all, he should want the war to end as
quickly as possible. As long as it continues, hell
be caught in a crossfire on his own side between
the pro-Hamas left and pro-Israel moderates.
The easiest way to reduce the intensity around
the issue would be for the war to end, but the
administrations jawboning of Israel has stayed
the hand of the Jewish state and prolonged this
phase of the conflict.
Also, when presented with a choice between
placating a fraction of public sentiment or siding with the majority, its usually the smart play
NATIONAL COMMENTARY
RICH LOWRY, King Features Syndicate
to go with the majority. Yet, Biden — desperate to
stop his bleeding among young voters who are
more pro-Palestinian than the rest of the electorate — cant resist the pull of the fraction.
Its true that young people look at the conflict
differently. According to a New York Times
survey of the swing states, voters ages 18-29 sympathize with the Palestinians over the Israelis,
44-to-23, while every other age group is with the
Israelis, by increasingly lopsided numbers as
they get older.
Theres little doubt what the majority thinks,
though. The latest Harvard-Harris poll found
that people support Israel over Hamas by 80-to20, and believe that Israel is trying to avoid civilian casualties in Gaza, 67-to-33. Even voters ages
18-24 support Israel in this survey, 57-to-43, and
believe Israel is trying to minimize casualties,
64-to-36.
For all the turmoil over Gaza, its not a
top voting issue. Just 2% of voters say that
the Israeli-Palestinian conflict will be the most
important issue in deciding their vote in The
New York Times poll, and 4% of voters ages
18-29.
What Biden most needs is for people to think
that hes a moderate and a steady hand. The
White House may tell itself that its achieving
that with a carefully managed, in-between position. But to nearly everyone else it looks like the
president has gotten pushed by the left into flirting from being stalwartly pro-Israel to impeding
its war effort.
In other words, in fishing for voters who are
small in number and outside the mainstream,
Biden has further discredited himself and his
leadership with his equivocation.
Perhaps the most astonishing finding in the
Times poll is that by 50% to 35%, more voters
trust Trump than Biden to handle the IsraeliPalestinian conflict, and Trump leads on this
question by a little bit more among voters ages
18-29, 52-to-28.
Trump, who managed to frighten our enemies with his hit against Qasem Soleimani,
while also forging a breakthrough peace deal
with the Abraham Accords, does indeed look
like a giant of statesmanship compared with a
Joe Biden whose war policy has been written on
water.
Biden has shown that its impossible to be all
things to all people, but it is possible to convince
most of them that you dont know what youre
doing.

Why is it that we the citizens of Garnett cannot
drive around town with our bright lights on but
the City of Garnett police and Anderson County
cops can? I thought they were supposed to lead
by example. Theyre not doing that if theyre
doing illegal things.
Editors note: Political races are underway
and passions are running high. The Phone
Forum will not publish allegations or rumors
of illegal activity that have yet to be charged
by law enforcement or official authorities. If
you have evidence of or testimony that a crime
has been committed, contact law enforcement
or the county attorneys office. Opinions are
one thing and the PF invites them; anonymous
allegations presented as fact and intended to
malign a candidate are cowardly character
assassination and wont be published in the PF.
Biden, the destructionist dictator, has committed another impeachable offense. The issue
being his withholding of federally appropriated
funds for Israels defense. This violates his
Oath of Office and the Impoundment Control
Act, which states that a president cannot substitute his own priorities for those enacted in
the law by Congress. Impeach 46.
I was just wondering why the county attorney
has to move here? I read that in the paper and I
dont understand it, if someone could elaborate
on that. Thank you.
Do not ever tolerate the racist us-against-them
exclusionary and dehumanizing term people
of color, which lumps together groups which
have less ancestral cultural and historical ties
to each other than so-called whites, and many
having lighter skin than many Europeans. To
understand just how offensive this term is,
imagine if people of color was redefined to
mean the entirety of humanity except only
those of black, sub-Saharan African ancestry
were excluded.
After all these years of watching Trump I really
respected him as a young man, but after watching him on TV he reminds me of one of those
monkeys with the symbols clapping his hands
together.
Id like to compliment Jim Cox for the poem
he wrote for the April 30th paper. The title of it
was Stranger At The Gates of Hell. I appreciated his poetry and its very, very real. Thats
exactly whats going on. So thank you Jim Cox
for writing that and thank you for publishing it.
Id like to say thank you to the young man who
walks the big dog, its a Labradoodle; when the
dog potties in my yard he picks it up. Thank
you. More people should be like him.
The NFL, which now regularly makes LGBTQ
attacks on traditional religious values, has
become yet another arm of the demonic
Democrat Party. Its Orwellian DEI Sovietstyle political commissar just publicly attacked
Chiefs player Harrison Butker for, on his own
time, expressing his religious beliefs at a local
Catholic College commencement address.
Would the people who live at the house on Park
Road put a muzzle on your dog? The neighborhood would be so grateful. Thank you.

ing homelessness.
The analysis of this buffoon
strategy to confront homelessness is clear to anyone whos
ever gone on a picnic. Spill
more jelly, get more ants.
But to maintain the facade
of compassion and an abundance of caring, policy makers in government will continue to avoid real answers for
homelessness because effective, self-reliant solutions are
indeed hard and callous by the

may soon be partnering with
Health Midwest, a Kansas City-

from the agency met with the
Hospital trustees to begin preliminary discussions. The relationship could solidify health
care in the county for years to
come. Health Midwest runs
a system of a dozen hospitals
in the Kansas City Area. At
a recent meeting, Anderson
County Commissioners found
themselves at the center of
an argument between several landowners. The problem
began when Ona Mae Hunt
noticed that water from a county ditch was flowing across her
property and asked that a dike
be built north of a county road
on the south side of her property and a ditch between the
dike and the road was deepened
to handle the large amount of
water. Counterproductively,
the dike resulted in water
backing up on several other
pieces of land, causing water to
back up into a well and forcing
the deeper ditch to push water
back onto another landowners
property.

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW Tuesday, May 21, 2024
Vikings track & field send numerous to State
AC golfer qualified for State
ERIE – Through the ups and
downs, illnesses and injuries,
the Central Heights Vikings
athletes have passed the
Regional test and now move
several kids on to the 2A State
Championships in Wichita.
Viking coach Troy Prosser
stated, Although not everyone
will get the additional week of
Track & Field, Im very proud
of what every athlete on this
team accomplished.
Some came out for the first
time, many tried new events,
and everyone posted multiple
personal records throughout
the spring.
We, however, have goals
that were set long ago that we
have another week to accomplish, Prosser added.
The girls 4×800 managed to
run their season best while
holding back quite a bit.
Emma gave us a comfortable lead and Melaney, Bella
and Addy ran very smart legs
to get the girls team back to
Wichita for the first time since
2019, a proud Prosser stated.
Emma Cubit also won the
1600m with her best yet and did
so with only a month of practice and in her first year on the
track since her 7th grade year.
Cubit was also close in the
800m but fell just short with yet
another personal record.
The boys have continued to
IOLA – Anderson County
Bulldog golfer Eli Martin made
it a perfect 4 for 4 qualifying
for State throughout his high
school years after finishing
in a tie for 5th in last weeks
Osawatomie 4A Regional golf
meet.
Martin (87) tied for 5th along
with Graham Beer of Heritage
Christian Academy and Matt
Newhouse of Wellsville.
Finishing first was Brennen
Coffield from Iola with a
score of 76. Second place of
Lucas Prado (81) of Heritage
Christian Academy and in
keep their focus and did what
they set out to do on the day.
Prosser added, The most
impressive way to follow up
the girls 4×800 was for the boys
to hold back as much as they
did on all four legs and still
equal their top time this season
with an 8:14.92. If we can put
our four best splits on the track
on Saturday, we could do something really special.
Between the four runners
of the 4×800, Cody Hammond
also won the 800m and 1600m,
Connor Burkdoll was 2nd in
the 3200m and 3rd in the 1600m,
Owen Miller was 3rd in the
3200m, and Christian McCord
finished 4th in the 800m.
Prosser added, All four
qualifying spots in the 800m,
1600m and 3200m races were
filled by us and Kansas City
Christian which has become
one of the best and friendliest
rivalries in all of 2A.
The two coaches have a
history that goes beyond high
school.
The KCC coach and I ran
together in college and have
remained close friends ever
since so its been great to see
their teams and ours grow
throughout the years, Prosser
said.
With Regionals now behind
them, the question becomes,
how can this team cap this sea-
son?
Prosser said, My hope is
that our experience and preparation will shine on the track
at WSU stadium on Friday and
Saturday. We can still clean a
few things up and toe the line
with the best from everywhere
across Kansas and I cant think
of a better way and a better
place to close out the 2023-24
than at the largest High School
Track & Field meet in the
nation.

Regional quarterfinal ends in heartbreaking loss for Bulldogs
GARNETT – In a bizarre turn
of events, it would be the
Anderson County Bulldogs
turn to lose with a walk-off
walk in the second round of
regionals after winning the
very same way in the opening round as Humboldt scored
twice in the bottom of the seventh for a 6-5 win.
The Bulldogs struck first
with 3 runs in the top of the
third inning for an early 3-0
lead.
Humboldt responded with 2
runs in the bottom of the 3rd
and 4th innings to take a 4-3
lead.
Anderson County answered
with a run in the fifth to tie the
game at 4 and tacked on one
more in the sixth for a 5-4 lead,
which is where the score stood
until the bottom of the seventh.
Back-to-back errors to open
the seventh by the Bulldog
defense opened the door for
Humboldt putting runners on
first and second with no outs.
The Bulldogs struck out the
next hitter and following an
intensional walk to load the
bases with just one out, the
Bulldog defense let them down
again with another error to tie
the game at 5.
Following a strikeout, the
winning run scored on a full
count walk to bring the game
to an end.
Preston Kueser led the
Bulldogs with 2 hits and drove
in 2 runs.
Seven errors by the defense
led to 5 of the 6 runs being
unearned in the disappointing
loss to close out the year.
Humboldt
would
get
knocked off in the championship game by Burlington, 11-5.

Crest boys statebound
RICHMOND – The Crest
Lancers had a good regular
season but seem to be firing on
all cylinders down the stretch
after sweeping through the
regional at Central Heights
outscoring opponents 37-12 in
the process.
Back on May 8th in the
first round the #2 seed
Crest Lancers (20-7) downed
Northern Heights (5-16), 9-1.
The quarterfinals would see

After scoring twice in the
bottom half of the first inning
for an early 2-0 lead, the Crest

7 in the top of the second for a
7-2 advantage.
Crest would chip away at the
lead over the next two innings,
scoring 2 in the 2nd and 3 more
in the third to knot it up at 7.
The Lancers would cruise
the rest of the way with 2 in the
fourth, 4 more runs in the fifth
and then 5 runs in the sixth
with just 1 out to end the game
due to the mercy rule.
Logan Kistner led Crest
with 4 hits in 5 at bats, scored
3 times and drove in 2 runs.
In the finals, Crest squared
off against top-seeded Southern
Lyon County (14-4) and came
away with a 10-3 victory.
After a sluggish start, the
Lancers turned a 1-0 deficit
heading into the third into a
6-1 lead after 3 runs in both the
third and fourth innings.
Rogan Weir led the offense
with 2 hits, scored twice and
drove in 5 runs. Weir hit a
third inning triple that scored
the teams first 2 runs and a
3-run homerun in the sixth to
put Crest up 10-1.
Crest will open state as the
#5 seed and will face St. Marys
Colgan (18-4) in the first round
on Thursday at the Great Bend
Sports Complex.
The quarterfinals and finals
will conclude on Friday.

6th inning rally ends Lady
Bulldogs season at regionals
IOLA – At the Burlington
Regional last week, the
Anderson County Bulldogs and
Burlingame/Northern Heights
played an opening round thriller that ended with a 4-run
6th inning by Burlingame/
Northern Heights to overcome
a late 3 run deficit to advance.
Both teams scored a run
in the first inning before the
Bulldogs scored 3 in the top of
the second for an early 4-1 lead.
The lead vanished in the bottom of the third as Burlingame/
Northern Heights scored 3 of
their own to knot it back up at
4.
They would seemingly take
control in the bottom of the
fourth with four more runs to
put the Lady Bulldogs behind
9-4.
AC erased the deficit quick-
ly with an 8-run top of the fifth
inning.
Burlingame/Northern
Heights answerd with 2 runs
in the bottom of the fifth inning
to cut the deficit to 12-11.
The Bulldogs garnered a little breathing room with a pair
of runs in the top of the 6th, but
Burlingame/Northern Heights
responded with 4 runs in the
bottom of the sixth to regain
the lead, 15-14, and finished off
the win by holding the Bulldogs
off the board in the seventh.
B Galey and R Witherspoon
each picked up 3 hits in the
game, both scoring 3 runs and
combining for 5 runs driven in.
Top seeded Osage City
would knock off Burlingame/
Northern Heights in the second
round 6-1 en route to a regional
championship and state birth.
Viking boys lose heartbreaker
RICHMOND – After a first
round win on May 8th over
Lebo/Waverly 18-1, the Vikings
battled top-seeded Southern
Lyon County (14-4) down to the
wire in a 3-2 loss in the quarterfinal round of regionals last
Monday, May 13.
The only runs for Southern
Lyon County came in the bottom of the second inning, but
the Vikings struggled to find
offense as well.
Central Heights scored once
in the sixth and again in the
seventh but came up just short
as the game tying run was on
2nd base as the game came to
an end on a strikeout.
All 5 runs in the game were
unearned as both teams committed 2 errors.
B Sommer pitched 5 innings,
allowed 5 hits, 0 earned runs
and struck out 7 before giving way to L Brockus. Brockus
didnt allow a hit and struck
out 2 in his only inning.
Southern Lyon County
would go on to lose to Crest
in the regional championship
game, 10-3.

In your car when severe weather strikes?
WICHITA Its severe weather
season. As many people in this
part of the country are aware,
strong thunderstorms and even
tornadoes can strike quickly
and fiercely. Dangerous, damaging storms can catch motorists on the roads, so AAA
Kansas urges drivers and their
passengers to be prepared and
take appropriate safety precautionstornado should they
encounter severe weather
while traveling in a vehicle.
Heavy Rain and Flooding
Heavy downpours make it
difficult to see while driving.
AAA Kansas recommends regularly changing windshield
wiper blades to keep drivers
views as clear as possible. If
visibility is severely limited
during heavy rain, drivers
should reduce their speed and
if they can safely do so, pull
off the road out of traffic lanes,
turn on flashing hazard lights,
and wait until the rain lightens.
Drivers should be reminded that it is Kansas law that
if windshield wipers are on,
headlights should be as well.
Headlights can help divers see
better but also allow their vehicle to be seen by other drivers.
Pooling water on roadways can cause hydroplaning
and loss of vehicle control, so
motorists should reduce their
speeds during rainy conditions.
Roadways completely covered
by water are a particular danger.
Hail
Hailstorms WQhit with little warning and usually only
last for about five minutes, but
hailstones frozen pellets of
rain can cause major damage
in that short period of time.
There were nearly 7,000
major hailstorms (hail stones
one inch in diameter or larger)
in the U.S. in 2023, with 459
third most in the nation
occurring in Kansas, according
to the National Oceanic and
Atmospheric Administration
(NOAA). Most hailstones are
about the size of a pea or marble, but they can get as large as
a softball in a severe storm.
To protect your car from
hail storms, park your car in
a covered spot whenever possi-
ble.
If youre in your car when
a hailstorm hits and see a safe
place close-by, such as a highway overpass or gas station
or bank awning, drive to it as
soon as you can. If no shelter
is available and hail becomes
large enough to cause damage,
stop driving and pull off the
road completely. Move away
from car windows and cover
your head with your arms and
hands to protect yourself from
any breaking glass.
Lightning
The National Weather
Service reports that lightning
strikes about 25 million times a
year, killing about 20 people in
the United States and severely
injuring hundreds more.
If you are caught outside
during a thunderstorm, seek
shelter in a hard-topped vehicle, or a low area, such as a
tunnel. If you are already in
your car when a lightning
storm begins, stay in the vehicle for shelter, but steer clear
of fences, isolated trees, telephone poles, power lines and
pipelines.
Lightning-caused damage to
a vehicle is typically covered
under the comprehensive portion of an auto insurance policy,
said AAA Kansas Insurances
Tomes. Thunderstorms can
sometimes have other impacts
to vehicles, including:
Damage caused by falling
trees due to high winds. This
kind of damage is typically covered by standard auto insurance policies. However, if the
tree was known to be weak
before the storm, the damage
may not be covered.
A wildfire that results from a
lightning storm can cause damage to cars. Insurance coverage
for wildfire, even if caused by
lightning, is included in the
comprehensive coverage of an
auto insurance policy.
Tornadoes
NOAA reports that the
United States is the most tornado-prone country in the
world, with about 1,000 tornadoes touching down each year.
There were more than 1,400
documented tornadoes in the

Anderson County EMS awarded two grants toward purchase of SUV
GARNETT – Anderson
County Emergency Medical
Services (EMS), a department
of Anderson County Hospital,
was recently awarded two
grants totaling $6,500 to go
toward replacement of the
departments Sports Utility
Vehicle (SUV).
Earlier this spring, the
Kansas Pipeline Association
(KPA) awarded $5,000 to help
Anderson County EMS acquire
the new service vehicle. This
past week, Southern Star
Central Gas Pipelines Welda
District employees presented a
check for $1,500, adding to the
total grants received.
The remaining costs to purchase and equip the new vehicle were covered by the annual EMS Apparatus Subsidy,
which was approved by the
Anderson County Hospital
Board of Trustees.
The new SUV, a 2015 Ford
Expedition XL with less
than 30,000 miles, replaces a
high-mileage 2010 GMC Yukon
that has been in service with
the department since 2017.
The vehicle is outfitted with
Advance Life Support (ALS)
equipment, a new emergency
warning light package that
includes scene lighting, and
communications equipment
that allows for direct contact
with the E-911 communication
center. The new SUV was officially put into service on May
6.
EMS services across the
nation utilize vehicles like
this as a supplement to their
ambulance service, shared
Troy Armstrong, paramed-
ic and director of Anderson
County EMS. Sometimes the
closest hospital is 20 or 30 minutes away from the call scene,
and having a secondary ALSequipped vehicle that can get
a paramedic on scene quickly allows our team to deliver
higher-level lifesaving interventions and treatments faster
than with ambulance response
alone.
Were incredibly grateful to
our community partners, the
KPA, Southern Stars Welda
District, and to our Trustees for
their support on this project,
said Armstrong. Its without a
doubt that this vehicle will help
ensure the delivery of pre-hospital Advanced Life Support
care during times when our
Anderson County citizens and
visitors need it most.

The above picture showcases the power of literacy and determination. Steve Wilsons challenge to read one million words sparked
motivation among the students of St. Rose, with seven kids rising to the occasion. Thomas Lickteigs astounding achievement of
reading over 3 million words sets a high bar, but Lillian Morgan, Joe Fitzwater, Isaac Tong, Adalyn Stout, Sawyer Stevenson, and
Nora Thompson, all rose to the occasion. Its inspiring to see such dedication to learning and growth. For reaching the goal of 1 million words the students were awarded a bicycle. Steve purchased the bikes at Wal-mart with their help to offset some of the costs.

United States 45 in Kansas
in 2023.
Tornado warnings mean
danger is imminent. If a tornado is sighted, move to the safest
place possible.
If you are in your car and
a tornado is close, abandon
the vehicle and seek shelter
in a storm shelter or sturdy
structure, said AAA Kansas
Steward. As a last resort, if
no structure is nearby, take
shelter in your vehicle seatbelt buckled; duck down below
windows; cover up with a blanket to protect you from glass/
debris; and protect your head
with your arms.
Also when taking cover
from a tornado, stay away from
trees, signs or cars/machinery and avoid seeking shelter
where they could fall on or
blow over onto you. Most tornadoes travel southwest to north-
east, so take that into account
when taking shelter.
Finally, never seek shelter
from a tornado under a highway overpass or bridge, as tornadic winds can be made stronger and create a wind-tunnel
effect, putting you in danger of
being swept away or killed or
injured by flying debris.
Emergency Kit
AAA recommends that
motorists create a spring/summer severe weather emergency
kit to carry in their cars. The
kit should include items such
as nonperishable food/snacks
and water, tool kit, flashlight,
hand-crank or battery-powered radio, extra batteries, cell
phone and charger, first-aid
supplies, flares or reflectors,
rain coat or poncho, a towel or
blanket, and rain boots or an
extra pair of shoes.

Years later and after moving back

the subject up with a friend who teaches

my program.
The programs success this introductory year exceeded all expectations.
Seven bicycles were awarded to students at the St. Rose school assembly on
May 14th.
Mr. Wilson assured the students that
the program will continue unabated,
hopefully for many years to come. My
dream is to fill the St. Rose all purpose
room with bicycles in the years to come.
Any individuals or businesses interested in being a part of this program

Bicycles for Kids is adopted by all

or Department of State employee who acts to limit defense

It also required DOD and the
State Department to ensure
prompt delivery of all defense
articles and services expected to
be delivered to Israel in FY2024
and FY2025. Unobligated funds
for operation and maintenance
for the Office of the Secretary of
Defense, diplomatic programs
for the Office of the Secretary
of State, and the National
Security Council may not be
spent until each office certifies
to Congress that any withheld
defense articles or services are
delivered to Israel. DOD and
the State Department must

required DOD and the State
Department to periodically
report to Congress on defense
articles and services provided
to Israel.
Davids vote was the latest
among numerous moves since
the Oct. 7 Hamas terrorist
attack that slaughtered 1,200
Israelis near the Gaza border. Those votes and denials
of support for Israel put her
on opposite sides of both the
rest of the Republican Kansas
Congressional Delegation and
public opinion in the nation
as a whole, which broadly supports Israel despite high-profile
pro-Hamas protests on college
campuses calling for a halt to
Israels counterattack.
The sole Democrat among
the Kansas delegation in
Washington, Davids voted
against the Israel Security
Supplemental Appropriations
bill to provide $14.3 billion for
Israels defense against Hamas.
She voted against freezing
Iranian assets as the terror
state continues its support of
Hamas and conducted a failed
drone attack against Israel.
She voted against reducing the
IRS budget to create cash to
assist Israel, and voted against
a blanket congressional condemnation of all anti-semitism
in the U.S.
