By Alex ColeThe Alfalfa County Commission-

ers met Monday for a regular meeting. They approved a Department of Trans-portation agreement and resolution with the county for bridge and road repair for project #STP-202D(008)CI and State Job #28343(04) on EW-34. They voted to have the bridge at this location com-pletely reconstructed. It crosses Eagle Chief Creek and is approximately 45 feet long and 16 feet wide. It sits one mile north and half a mile east of Aline and was constructed nearly 100 years ago in 1916. The commissioners esti-mate that the bridge will be completed in December of this year.

After approving minutes from the last meeting, M & O warrants and blan-

ket purchase orders, the commissioners opened and approved 36 six-month bids.

They then voted to appoint Chief Clerk Stephanie Jantz as the receiving officer for the Alfalfa County Election Board. The board also approved a prop-erty easement for the southwest quarter of Section 29 Township 28 North Range 11 West.

Contracts with the Texas County Ju-venile Detention Center and the Craig County Regional Detention Center for 2013-2014 were approved. A deten-tion services agreement with Muskogee Youth Services was also motioned for approval. Detention transportation ser-vices agreement contracts for the year

met Monday night for its June meet-ing. The board handled many personnel changes, ratified a negotiations agree-ment with teachers, gave raises and learned the P1 Group has run into unex-pected expenses as they make improve-ments at the grade school.

Three board members attended their last meeting as members of this board, except for the upcoming end-of-the-fiscal year meeting June 20 at 7 a.m. Tradition-ally that meeting lasts about 15 minutes to take care of such business as paying last-minute bills.

Superintendent Brad Morris present-ed plaques of appreciation to those board members: Bob Schrock for two years of service (who filled the unexpired term of Mark Nevil and did not seek reelection), Janet Robison for eight years of service, and Kent Swartz for 16 years of service.

Newly elected board members Steve Allen, Mark Pollock and Dooli Rugg sat in the crowd and will take their places at the board table in July.

All other board members were pres-ent including Michael Anderson, Dana Roark, Deb Helfrich and Jeff Black.

Multiple Hirings and Resignations Jeff Lantz, who was hired last month

as a South Barber High School (SBHS) business teacher, received board approv-al to also coach. Lantz will be head coach of SBHS boys basketball as well as boys and girls tennis coach.

At Chaparral High School Lantz was

head boys basketball coach for three years and junior varsity and freshman coach for one year. Also at Chaparral he was head girls tennis coach for five years and as-sistant one year, and head boys tennis coach three years and assistant two years. He also coached basketball at Wichita Southeast High School: freshman boys, six years; sophomore boys, three years; head girls four years; and assistant foot-ball, one year.

Head boys and girls tennis coach Dennis Blake submitted his resignation, which was approved by the board.

Junior/Senior High School Principal Brent Shaffer received board approval as drivers education teacher for 2012-13. The summer session is ongoing.

The board accepted the resignation of Kiley Feely as K-12 vocal music teacher. She went to Burlington to teach vocal music and band and to be librarian where her husband Shane is principal and her boys are students. Morris confirmed that the vocal music position has been offered and they await a response.

Third-grade teacher Gayle McNett submitted her resignation to stay at home with her young daughter. The board ap-proved her request. Principal Marcia Cantrell said they are interviewing for the position.

Last month the board approved Mar-tha Arbuckle as fifth-grade teacher. She has since withdrawn from the position and the board approved the withdrawal.

Samantha Nichols from McPherson received board approval as the fifth-grade

teacher. Resignation of Samantha Kraft as

Title I paraprofessional received board approval.

Sammi Inman will be head middle school volleyball coach. Dru Hitchcock will be her assistant. Sammi will also be the middle school cheerleading Sponsor.

As longtime SBHS cheerleading sponsor, Janet Cook announced the 2013-14 year will be her last. The board approved Brenna May as co-head cheer sponsor with Janet for the coming school year.

Approved Raises and NegotiationsFollowing a 20-minute executive ses-

sion, the board approved $1,000 salary increases for the 2013-14 school year for junior/senior high Principal Brent Shaf-fer; Pre-K-6 Principal Marcia Cantrell; and USD No. 255 secretary and board clerk Julie Johnson. The board approved a $750 increase for District Technology Director Luke MacKinney.

Classified personnel received a 15-cent-per-hour raise. Bus drivers will see a 25-cent increase per bus run.

The negotiation agreement between representatives of teachers and the board was ratified by the board. This includes their movement within the salary sched-ule, insurance, hours and professional points, and teacher bonuses.

Superintendent Talks Increased P1 Costs and Tax Revenue

Superintendent Morris said the P1 Group the board hired for the renova-tion project at the grade school is moving along on schedule. Starting in late May, P1 has installed about one-third of the HVAC units in the classrooms and offic-es. The new windows should arrive next week, he said.

Morris said P1informed him Monday of additional, unexpected costs they dis-covered during the renovation project.

One of those is tha existing suspended ceilings were not installed correctly and dont meet current code. P1 said the an-chors and hangers are not strong enough to support the new suspended ceilings. They are to get a report of whats needed and additional costs after a review of the ceilings in all rooms.

Morris said he is waiting until the re-

By Lynn L. MartinLast Friday, my little sister died from

complications of myotonic muscular dystrophy. All the Martin siblings had been told a long time ago that there was no cure for this genetic disease that Marta in-herited and all waited for the undetermined date that the clock would stop on Mar-tas time with us.

At the time that symptoms appeared back in about 1970, the myotonic part hadnt even been named.

One of the sad memories I have is how we family members were not very sensitive to Martas aches and pains and participated in judging her as lazy.

She was born four months after I graduated from high school. So we were never close, coming almost from two different generations of the same par-ents.

At the time of her birth, everything seemed fine. As a child she began hav-ing stomach aches. After many tests the doctors told our parents that they could find nothing wrong, and thus her chal-lenges must be psychological. They went as far as recommending that Mar-tas sister Tara accompany her to school to relieve her anxiety.


Lynn Says

Getting the short-straw in lifeOver time Marta felt extremely dis-

counted by those responsible for assist-ing her in health issues. It wasnt until her late teen years that the physical lethargy began to take place. During her junior and senior years in high school, she protested that she didnt feel like go-ing to school and it seemed like all she wanted to do was lie on the couch.

My achievement-oriented Dad too often chided her about have no motiva-tion. There were no clues like running a fever or other symptoms. She simply had less energy than the rest of us. That also left her feeling out of step with the rest of her highly motivated family. She spoke of feeling different from the rest of us and could not understand why she did not fit in.

She was about three when Marione and I married and left to forge our own life. We had been in Alva for a few years when Marta and Bob Ward married.

Eventually, we talked them into moving to Alva where her husband, Bob, learned to run our first web news-paper press at the old Newsgram build-ing. Just prior to moving to Alva, their second child Kris was born in Oklaho-ma City. The physician at the birthing center was at an OU football game and Martas labor progressed so rapidly that a nurse practitioner had to step up and deliver baby Kris. It was apparent im-mediately that Kris was in trouble. He

was blue and limp, and his baby cry was somewhat like a mew. It was touch and go for a few weeks and it took time and testing to learn that he had Myoton-ic Muscular Dystrophy.

The family moved to Alva when Kris was about 8 weeks old. Shortly af-ter their arrival he developed pneumo-nia, and I was shocked to hear he was medi-flighted from Alva to Wichita, which was rare in those days.

Soon, the Wards moved to Texas where more medical and family support was present. A Houston area hospital had the nations foremost experts in the disease.

The two children, Natalie and Kris, both inherited the muscular dystrophy gene. Natalie, the older, has held a few part-time jobs, but is low on stamina. In school she had learning challenges and developed scoliosis that eventually led to a rod being inserted into her spine so that she could grow normally.

Her younger brother, Kris, now hav-ing lived many years beyond initial ex-pectations, is a funny and cheerful fel-low who has few fears about life. The Price is Right is a MUST SEE every day as are numerous sports-related pro-grams. Unfortunately he is not capable of taking care of himself and is difficult to understand in conversation due to

2014 were approved for the Office of Juvenile Affairs.

The next item discussed by the com-missioners was a payment option for workers compensation insurance to be paid to The Association of County Com-missioners of Oklahoma. The board de-cided on Option 1, a payment of $48,742, which is to be submitted before July 31.

Lastly, the Alfalfa County Commis-sioners moved to appoint Doug Murrow as the Board of Trustees Representative for the National Orientation Directors Association. Once appointed, the term lasts one year.

A total of 22 road crossing permits were approved during the meeting and came to an amount of $21,500. District 1 had 11 permits that totaled $11,250; District 2 had 7 permits totaling $6,250; District 3 had four permits and totaled $4,000.

MARTA ANN MARTIN WARDMarta Ann Ward departed this life

on June 7 at Methodist Willowbrook Hospital in Houston, Texas, near her home in Cypress. Per Mar-tas request, no fu-neral will be held.

Marta was born Nov. 9, 1959, in Rol-la, Mo. Her parents were the late Luther Washburn Martin

and his wife, Jeanne Frances Reynolds Martin. She was baptized into Christ in Lawton in July 1973 while visiting family in Oklahoma. She was a member of the West Houston Church of Christ, Houston, Texas.

Marta grew up in Rolla attending the Rolla Public Schools. She graduated from Rolla High School in 1978 and later attended Northwestern Oklahoma State University in Alva and Angelina College in Lufkin, Texas. During her high school years, she met Bobby Ray Bob Ward, Jr., her future husband. Bob worked for Martas father, Luther Martin, at Show-Me Electronics in Rol-la. Bob, being a wise young man, had the sense to ask Luther if he could take Marta out. That got him through the door past a highly protective dad. They married Sept. 4, 1978, in St. James, Mo.

Martas brother Kurt Reynolds Mar-tin walked her down the aisle and her father Luther performed the wedding ceremony. Her sister Judy made the lovely wedding cake while her broth-er Lynn was wedding photographer.


report that his family is cheering for the wrong team!

I can only give the highest praise to brother-in-law Bob Ward who is de-scribed by everyone as a class act. He has taken care of and cherished his fam-ily to the nth degree. While I have seen husbands abandon their wives when serious illness arrives, Bob has held the for better or worse portion of his mar-riage vows perfectly.

I was surprised to see that Marta specified she did not want a funeral. She felt uncomfortable with the idea of people being sad about her exit. She re-peatedly said that she wanted those who knew her to celebrate her life.

Bob told me in recent times that a couple of members of the church where they attend asked for a happy memorial celebration in the fellowship hall with

all the friends and family invited. No black clothes. No sad music. Just a cel-ebration. This also fits in with Martas desire to donate her organs to medical research in hopes that in a small way she can help others who suffer the same de-bilitating disease.

As my sister Tara wrote in an obitu-ary (published in this issue), even after 35 years of marriage, the Wards treated each other with great affection as if they were young honeymooners even though Marta has had the need for a scooter and walker for the last five years. So while it is not unfair to say Marta got the short straw in life, she and Bob showed us how to handle it.

The lesson the rest of us learned was to not be so judgmental when others are having problems. We learned that lesson big time!

muscle weakness in his face.However, Kris is an unusual blessing

in our family for several reasons. His challenges paved the way for his mother and sister to discover their own diag-noses. FINALLY, Marta felt validated that all of those years of suffering and being chided had a diagnosis other than everything being in her head. Secondly, Kris provides a bright spot and humor in each and every day that he lives. He is a walking dictionary of all sports topics and is ready to verbally spar immedi-ately on any topic with anyone who will do so.

At a recent family gathering he in-vited most of his family members to become Power Rangers and gave each their designated name and color! He regularly calls relatives explaining that his dad has cheated playing cards or to

port and cost estimates to discuss with P1 Rep. Rusty Roderick who is responsible for the additional expense. Morris and the board feel that P1 should have seen the problem with the suspended ceiling in their review of the building prior to quot-ing a dollar figure.

Another additional cost is purchase of a transformer for the grade school. The city will order the transformer from its supplier at a cost of $6,850, Morris said.

K&D Tree Service was hired to re-move two dead trees from the grade school property at a cost of $1400.

Morris said June tax revenue from Barber County was received and totaled $1,033,486. Last June the amount of tax revenue received was $850,584, so that is

$182,902 more than last year.A breakdown of where that total goes

within USD No. 255 accounts is: gen-eral fund $532,712, LOB (local op-tion budget) $236,712, capital outlay $222,174 (which is $77,826 short of estimate, Morris said), rec commission $42,119.

Tax revenue received from Harper County totals $8,153.

Using the state school formula, USD No. 255 will send $898,000 back to the State of Kansas. Last year they sent the state $812,702.

D.A.R.E. Program and Other Business

In May board members discussed implementation of a D.A.R.E. (Drug

Abuse Resistance Education) program. Monday night the board approved the commitment between the district and law enforcement for its implementation. The program will be offered to fifth graders next year and expand in the future.

Current bills totaling $479,260.40 were approved. Student Achievements and Enrollment

Principal Shaffer praised Santana Reeves, who will be a sophomore, for be-ing the 1A State Champion in the 1,600 and 3,200 meter runs and fourth in the 800 meter run.

The 4x400 meter relay team took eighth at state with members Nicole Blick, Keeli Hostetler, Paige Koblitz and Santana Reeves.

Kassidy Clark was seventh in state throwing the shot put. Peyton Reeves competed in the 3,200 meter run, but did not place.

Jace Thurman and Conner Black, both 2013 graduates, competed in the eight-man all-star game at Beloit Friday and their team won.

Shaffer said pre-enrollment numbers are similar to last years. South Barber graduated 16 seniors and gets 19 sixth graders. This puts enrollment at 39 in ju-nior high and 71 at the high school.

By Yvonne MillerThe Kiowa City Council covered a

wide variety of business at its two-hour June meeting Monday night.

Mayor Brandon Farney conducted the meeting with all members pres-ent: Bill Watson, R.L. Simpson, Russel Molz, Tom Wells and Mark Lambert. Also at the council table were City Ad-ministrator Nathan Law, City Attorney Laurel McClellan and City Clerk Marlo Rugg. Old Bowling Alley Demolition Bids

On Thursday at 5 p.m., Farney and Law had a public bid opening for the four bids submitted for demolition of the old bowling alley building located at 642 Main St. (at the corner of Seventh and Main streets).

Bids were to be submitted for demo-lition of the property and also the neigh-boring structure to the west known as the former Kiowa Services building at 634 Main St.

The only people who submitted bids and attended the opening were Hugh Barker and Rick Eshelman of Barker Sand and Gravel LLC of Harper, Kan. Barkers total bid was $76,500.

G&G Dozier of Caney, Kan., submit-ted a total bid of $65,000. The bid from Midwest Wrecking Co. of Oklahoma City totaled $221,705.

The low bid came from Jacksons Wrecking Company of Enid for $48,000.

The council agreed to research the bids further so tabled them. They plan to make a decision at the councils meeting continued from this one scheduled for June 24 at 7 a.m.

The multi-level bowling alley build-ing is literally imploding and is deemed a structural threat, a condemned property

as well as a health hazard. It is a breed-ing ground for disease-infested pigeons that then roost in residential areas.

The mayor said, The building is a major health issue, describing swarm-ing gnats that carry diseases.

Through the city tax foreclosure sale, the city attorney found a federal lien had been placed against the Kiowa Services property. McClellan said he spoke to the U.S. Attorney and thinks he can get an early release on the tax lien or it would be tied up for one year.

At the sheriffs tax foreclosure sale Farney bought the building for $112. Monday night the city bought the build-ing from Farney for $113.

Drug Dog At the councils May meeting, the

Kiowa Police Department (KPD) ap-proached the council about fundraising efforts to purchase a drug dog for the community.

Monday, Police Chief Steven John-son told the council, Weve had an enormous show of support from the community of people willing to help fund a drug dog for the KPD. But I de-fer to the county.

Johnson said he and Sheriff Justin Rugg spoke about the situation. Rugg confirmed to the council that Barber County will have a new drug dog by the end of January 2014. In the meantime, Rugg said they can have a drug dog brought in as needed within the hour from a neighboring county that has one.

Senior Citizens Donate Their Share of Vehicle to City

Several years ago Kiowas Senior Citizens organization and the City of Ki-owa both put in $12,300 for a van to be used by seniors. The van had big steps

that prohibited many seniors from get-ting in the vehicle. Therefore its hardly ever used.

Senior Citizen President Anita Bird-well and Vice President Corrine Harding said to let the seniors investment in the van be considered a donation to the city. Councilmembers thanked the women for the donation. Corrine said, We just hope the city can use it. Some said it could probably be used by the fire de-partment besides other departments.

Other City of Kiowa Business The council granted Fire Chief Bill

Duvalls request for a 90-day extension on the deadline for finding and securing a rescue rig for the department.

After discussing a proposed change in the number of city councilmembers to have a quorum, the council decided to leave it as is. As it stands now, four of the five councilmembers are required to a have quorum to hold a meeting. This was based on the Kansas Open Meeting Acts requirements from the 2008 legis-lature. This allows two councilmembers to discuss city business outside council

From Page 12 ObitsUniquely they married at the James and Gahr Mortuary in St. James and no one seemed to care much about that choice of locations. That did not hinder Bob and Marta from having almost 35 years together in a loving marriage. They still behaved as newlyweds, enjoying date night as often as possible.

Marta followed Bob in his career and they at different eras resided in Rolla; Springfield, Mo.; Norman; Alva; Lufkin, Texas; and lastly in Cypress, Texas.

Bob was the absolute love of her life and he blessed her with two beauti-

ful children, Natalie and Kris. Follow-ing Kriss birth, it was determined that Marta, Natalie and Kris all had myo-tonic muscular dystrophy. Marta had many aches and pains in early life and no one had been able to figure out the cause. This was a heavy blow to a beau-tiful family and it changed the course of the future forever.

Martas children and husband were the focus of her life and she was a strong advocate for their needs and well-being. She loved to cook, decorate and make creative craft projects as gifts for her friends and family. In her childrens ear-

ly years she was very active in the Mus-cular Dystrophy Association in Texas, assisting with several of Jerry Lewiss telethons.

During the past few years, Marta made a strong impression on the people who entered her life, as a strong wom-an who held up to her challenges with courage and a joyful spirit. She impact-ed, for the better, all who met her.

CENTRALIA, Kan. (AP) The Nemaha County sheriff says a 14-year-old boy died after an accident at Centralia City Lake.

The sheriff says in a news release that the teen was riding a tube being pulled by a boat Monday evening when he was thrown from the tube.

The teenager, whose name is not being released, was later pronounced dead at the Nemaha Valley Community Hospital.

An investigation is continuing but the sheriff says foul play is not suspected.

By David DishneauFORT MEADE, Md. (AP) The

mountain of classified material Army Pfc. Bradley Manning gave to the anti-secrecy organization WikiLeaks revealed sensitive information about military operations and tactics, including code words and the name at least one enemy target, according to evidence the govern-ment presented Tuesday.

Manning, a 25-year-old Oklahoma native, has said he didnt believe the more than 700,000 battlefield reports, diplomatic cables and video clips he leaked while working as an intelligence analyst in Baghdad would hurt national security. Prosecutors want to convict him of aiding the enemy, which carries a po-tential life sentence, for leaking informa-tion they say found its way to Osama bin Laden.

For the first time, prosecutors pre-sented evidence that Mannings leaks compromised sensitive information in dozens of categories. The evidence was in the form of written statements the de-fense and prosecutors accepted as sub-stitutions for live testimony. It was read aloud in court.

In one statement, a classification ex-pert, retired Air Force Lt. Col. Martin Nehring, said his review of Afghanistan and Iraq battlefield reports revealed tech-niques for neutralizing improvised ex-plosives, the name of an enemy target, the names of criminal suspects and troop movements.

Navy Reserve Lt. Cmdr. Thomas Hoskins said his review of leaked Af-ghanistan battlefield reports found they revealed code words, tactics and tech-niques for responding to roadside bomb-ings, weapon capabilities and assistance

the United States had gotten from foreign nationals in locating suspects.

The evidence also covered leaked material from the Armys investigation into a 2009 airstrike in Afghanistans Farah province that killed at least 26 ci-vilians in the village off Garani. Manning has acknowledged leaking investigation documents and video of the airstrike. The leaked material forms the basis for one of eight federal espionage charges.

Prosecutors also presented a state-ment from Mannings aunt Debra Van Alstyne, who talked about her interview with Army investigators at her Maryland home in June 2010, shortly after Man-nings arrest.

She said one of them asked her how Manning felt about the Army.

I knew that Brad was proud of his job and of being in the Army, Van Al-styne said in her statement.

She also said an investigator collected a digital camera data card Manning had sent her that was found to contain some of the leaked Iraq battlefield reports and video of an Apache helicopter attack WikiLeaks had posted in which civilians were killed.

She said Manning called her after his arrest and asked if she had watched the helicopter video. She said he told her the video would be big news and that it would make a big splash in America.

Prosecutors began the day by pre-senting evidence Manning used his work computer to access a classified 2008 Army counterintelligence report about the possibility that WikiLeaks posed a national security threat. The evidence in-dicated Manning first accessed the report Dec. 1, 2009, about three weeks after he started work in Baghdad.

By Anick JesdanunMACKINAC ISLAND, Mich. (AP)

Producers of the 1980 movie Some-where in Time didnt need to build elaborate sets to depict the tale of a play-wright who travels back to 1912 to find romance. They simply filmed on Macki-nac Island, a Great Lakes enclave that retains its Victorian-era charm thanks to its ban on motor vehicles.

Motor vehicles have been banned on the island since the start of the 20th century after an automobile frightened some of the horses. These days, people still travel by horse-drawn carriage, as well as by bike and by foot.

Mackinac Island, located off the Straits of Mackinac separating Michi-gans Upper and Lower Peninsulas, was an important outpost in the regions fur trade, but that gave way to fishing and eventually tourism.

Among the main attractions: the Grand Hotel, a 385-room luxury hotel that played a central role in Somewhere in Time. In fact, fans of the movie, many in period costumes, descend on the island and the hotel every fall for a weekend of reenactments and a screen-ing.

You get reminders of a bygone era before even leaving the mainland by ferry. Crews cart overnight luggage onto the ferry, the way full-service porters used to at train stations and hotels. The Grand Hotel stands out as your ferry ap-

proaches the island. Closer to the dock, you pass a pair of quaint lighthouses, in-cluding one featured in the movie.

Once youre on the island, you have plenty of options. Head to the Mackinac Island State Park Visitors Center for an orientation. About 80 percent of the is-land is controlled by the state park, but staff there can also point you to other things to do, too.

HistoryNative Americans were the first set-

tlers on the island. Europeans missionar-ies came to the area in the 1670s, fol-lowed by fur traders. The British moved operations from the mainland to the is-land in 1780 as protection from Ameri-cans in revolt.

So important was the outpost that the British didnt cede the island until 1796, well after Americans won the Revolu-tionary War. The British got Mackinac Island back briefly after a surprise attack at the start of the War of 1812.

Through those years, the islands military center was Fort Mackinac, built on top of a hill a short walk from the main village.

For $11, visitors can stroll through Fort Mackinac. You can witness demon-strations of old-style guns and a cannon be sure to heed the demonstrators advice to cover your ears. You can also see some of the buildings once used for distributing supplies, housing soldiers and more.

During the summer months, the ad-mission also gets you into historic build-ings in the main village, including a blacksmith shop and the former site of American Fur Co.

RecreationDespite the lack of motor vehicles,

Mackinac Island has a state highway, running some eight miles around the is-land. You can walk or run it consider the Mackinac Island Eight-Mile Road Race in September. You can also rent bikes.

If eight miles is too much, there are shorter hikes you can take, including ones to natural stone formations such as Arch Rock and Sugar Loaf. There are more than 60 miles of trails to choose from throughout the 1,800-acre state park.

In fact, Mackinac was the second national park created after Yellowstone. But with the closure of Fort Mackinac, the park didnt have caretakers in the form of U.S. soldiers. The state took it over in 1895.

CharmThe Grand Hotel is such a draw

among tourists that non-guests must pay a $10 admission fee. That allows you to shop, dine or browse an art gallery in-side and lets you walk through the flow-er gardens in front of the hotel. Check out the Cupola Bar on the top floor for a wonderful view of the Straits of Macki-nac. Theres a dress code in the evening, so plan accordingly.

Its free to walk along the streets downtown, where youll find shops, churches, museums and other buildings. Youll also see lots of horses and car-riages in lieu of cars.

If you want to ride one, several com-panies offer tours and taxi service. Tours cost $24.50 and last nearly two hours. You can get off and get on as many times as you like, so you can use it as a bus ser-vice to get around. Expect to pay $100

Planning Your VisitMackinac Island is about 300 miles

north of Detroit. Interstate 75 will get you to the Straits of Mackinac in about 4 hours. Ferries leave several times a day from Mackinaw City in the Lower Peninsula and St. Ignace in the Up-per Peninsula. Tickets cost about $25, though you can save money by buying online or finding a coupon at your hotel.

You can also fly there. Delta offers service to Pellston, Mich., from Detroit, while Lakeshore Express flies from both Detroit and Chicago. From Pellston, you can take a cab or shuttle to the ferry, or take a charter flight to a smaller airport on the island.

As for accommodations, you can

splurge for a room at the Grand Hotel or find several cheaper options on the island. The mainland has far more eco-nomical lodging, not far from the ferry terminals.

Whether youre at Mackinac Island for just the day or with an overnight stay, be sure to stop by one of the many shops selling fudge the islands specialty cuisine. Just leave your diet on the main-land.

OVERLAND PARK, Kan. (AP) A month after being challenged by a rival to raise its bid for Sprint Nextel, Japans Softbank did just that, by $1.5 billion.

That brings Softbanks total bid to $21.6 billion for the nations third-largest carrier, which is still short of the $25.5 billion offered by the rival Dish Network in April.

Sprint, based in Overland Park, Kan., said already said its determined that Dish will not be able to come up with an offer superior to Softbanks. It ended discussions with Dish and gave it a June 18 deadline for a best and final offer.

The revised deal announced late Monday by Softbank suggests that it still seeks to mollify any Sprint shareholders who are not yet sold on the deal.

The new offer pushes even more cash to Sprint shareholders: $16.6 bil-lion, up from $12.1 billion. In exchange, Softbank will own about 78 percent of Sprint, compared with a previous 70 per-cent.

Shares of Sprint climbed 3 percent, or 22 cents, to $7.40 Tuesday before markets opened.

Sprints second largest shareholder, Paulson & Co., said it will vote all its shares in favor of Softbanks sweetened offer. And Softbank, even before the re-vised offer this week, had secured the endorsement of shareholder advisory firm Institutional Shareholder Services.

ISS believes the Softbank bid would ease Sprints debt burden and provide enough cash to improve its network. ISS

noted that mobile data in Japan travels nearly twice as fast as mobile data in the United States, and Softbanks expertise could eventually make Sprints network faster than AT&T and Verizon.

Sprint Nextel Corp., with more than 55 million subscribers, trails both Veri-zon Wireless and AT&T.

Softbank Corp. is a holding company with investments in Internet and telecom businesses. It was the first carrier to of-fer the iPhone in Japan.

The Treasury Departments Commit-tee on Foreign Investment has already cleared Softbanks bid, saying it hadnt found any national security reasons to prevent it. There were concerns that

By Tim TalleyOKLAHOMA CITY (AP) A fed-

eral appeals court said Tuesday that an Oklahoma man can sue the state over its Indian rain god license plate, rul-ing that the depiction of a noted sculp-ture on 3 million license plates could be interpreted as a state endorsement of a religion.

Keith Cressman of Oklahoma City sued a number of state officials in 2011, ruling that Oklahomas standard license plate depicted Native American religious beliefs that run contrary to his Christian-ity. U.S. District Judge Joe Heaton dis-missed the lawsuit in May 2012 but the 10th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals rein-stated it Tuesday.

Cressman would prefer to remain silent with respect to images, messages

and practices that he cannot endorse or accept, the appeals court said. The mans lawyer, Nathan Kellum of the Center for Religious Expression in Memphis, Tenn., said Cressman did not want to display an image that communi-cates a message which he finds objec-tionable.

He doesnt want to be forced to say something that he does not want to say, Kellum said.

Diane Clay, a spokeswoman for Oklahoma Attorney General Scott Pruitts office which is defending the lawsuit, said in a statement that the ap-peals courts decision presents another opportunity to review the case.

Well continue to defend the states position that Oklahomas license plate design does not violate Mr. Cressmans

constitutional rights, Clay said.It is against state law to cover up the

image, so to avoid displaying the image Cressman initially purchased a specialty license plate that cost $37 more than the standard plate and had a $35 renewal fee. He then purchased a cheaper spe-cialty license plate, which cost $18 more than the standard plate and cost $16.50 for renewal.

The standard Oklahoma license plate depicts Allan Housers Sacred Rain Ar-row bronze sculpture, which has been on display at Tulsas Gilcrease Museum for about 20 years. The tags design was adopted in 2008 in a license plate reis-suance plan that marked the first time in almost 16 years that the state had issued

The Softbank deal also needs ap-proval from the Federal Communica-tions Commission, but Sprint expects the transaction to close in early July.

Last month, Dish Chairman Charlie Ergen told investors and reporters that, given the benefits of owning Sprint, Softbank should be paying more for the company.

Softbanks CEO Masayoshi Son fired back, saying that Dishs $25.5 bil-lion offer was based on incomplete and illusory numbers.

Sprint shareholders had been sched-uled to vote Wednesday on the previ-ous Softbank offer, but the companies pushed that back to June 25 after Soft-bank raised its bid.

BURBANK, Calif. (AP) With his dark eyebrows deeply furrowed and gleaming white teeth firmly clamped shut, Henry Cavill winces when asked if Superman is treated like a terrorist in Man of Steel. His reaction is some-what understandable. The charming British actor should feel very protective of the character one of the biggest icons in pop culture.

Besides, Henry Cavill is Superman now.

Its a fair question though, given that Cavills Superman, his bulky frame encased in a deep-blue rendition of the Superman uniform, is handcuffed and attacked by the military at certain points in the retelling of the superheros origin. While the idea of Superman as a threat-ening outsider has been explored in oth-er mediums, its new to the big screen.

In the previous movies, it was just kind of accepted that he was a superhu-man, but what would happen if this dude really did exist? said Cavill. If he was discovered, he would probably be put in a room and experimented on. Thats very clear in his choices throughout the movie. Hes become very adept at being who he is but just not so openly.

Man of Steel centers on an adult Clark Kent or Kal-El, as hes known back on his home planet of Krypton at the inception of his superheroic identity. (The name Superman is actu-ally only uttered a couple of times in the film.) Its a matter-of-fact account of how a much more hesitant Clark rises up and responds when earth is threat-ened by Kryptonian outcasts.

At the beginning of Man of Steel,

which opens Friday, this version of the character doesnt wear spectacles, work at The Daily Planet, soar through the skies or own any clothes with a giant S plastered across the chest. Hes a drifter. He says more with actions than words, something the 30-year-old star of 2011s Immortals completely understands.

As an actor, you spend a lot of time alone, said Cavill. You travel the world by yourself. You dont have your buddies that you see on the weekend or at the office every day. You make tem-porary families, and you can only see your friends between jobs. Im actually not a naturally super-chatty person. Its a skill Ive had to teach myself.

With an emphasis on folksy imag-ery instead of high-flying action, early Man of Steel footage suggested a darker take on the superhero. While the tone is certainly more emotional than previous live-action adaptations, the filmmakers which include The Dark Knight director Christopher Nolan as a producer and writer havent diag-nosed Superman with depression.

Its not darker, said director Zack Snyder. Its just a more realistically re-alized version of Superman. We tried to apply logic to the story. He lives in our world. Thats it. Its a straightforward protocol. We put him in our world with-out it being a joke. If we had made it a little lighter, maybe it would feel more like the Superman of the past.

Thats exactly what the filmmakers didnt want to do.

Nolan, Snyder and screenwriter Da-vid S. Goyer traded the bumbling, nerdy Clark in favor of a more contemplative

one who stays under the radar working odd jobs. Its far, far and away from Christopher Reeves jocular interpreta-tion of the role, which Cavill won after earlier missing the part in 2006s Su-perman Returns to Brandon Routh.

Still, Snyder is quick to note this edi-tion of the Metropolis Marvel is not not Superman. For everything that feels different about the Superman in Man of Steel, theres still plenty thats rec-ognizable, most notably, Clarks highly principled attitude instilled in him by his Midwestern adoptive parents (played by Kevin Costner and Diane Lane).

Theres a snarkiness to the world now, and the nice thing about Superman is that hes a volunteer in the classic sense, said Snyder. If you really think about it, he has no life, other than to serve. I think that Henry, without mak-ing him sound like too much of a saint, naturally has that characteristic in him-self. Hes not putting it on.

Faith to both God and country

is an integral theme in Man of Steel. Theres no looking past the religious al-legories that have been associated with Superman mythology for decades. This Man of Tomorrow is 33 years old today and seeks counsel at a church in a time of crisis. Snyder believes his Superman supports religion but also questions it.

Its more interesting when someone is flawed, said Amy Adams, who plays Lois Lane. In the past, Superman is so hard to get into because hes so perfect. I love that Henry plays him as a con-flicted human being or alien, as it were with all these identifiable traits like fear, which weve never really seen before in this character.

Another contrast to previous Super-man lore is the evolution of the relation-ship between Clark and Lois, whos por-trayed by Adams as a take-no-prisoners, Pulitzer Prize-winning war reporter. She encounters the last son of Krypton be-fore even he fully understands his inter-galactic backstory. Ultimately, Super-

man needs Lois as much as she needs him.

I loved how this relationship be-tween Clark and Lois allowed for a subtle chemistry and mutual respect to develop, said Adams. I just thought there was something different to be explored within their relationship that were able to touch on a little bit in this film. She believes him, and thats really rare for Lois. Theres an authenticity there.

The expectations for Man of Steel are higher than any building in Me-tropolis. The film could accomplish for Warner Bros. what Superman Returns failed to do, namely, launch a film fran-chise akin to The Dark Knight. Paul Dergarabedian, box office analyst for Hollywood.com, expects it to leap over the $100 million mark in a single bound on opening weekend.

redesigned license plates for the more than 3 million vehicles registered in the state.

The sculpture depicts an Indian shooting an arrow skyward to bring down rain. Cressmans lawsuit alleged that the sculpture is based on a Na-tive American legend in which a war-

rior convinced a medicine man to bless his bow and arrows during a time of drought. The warrior shot an arrow into the sky, hoping the spirit world or rain god would answer the peoples prayers for rain.

The appeals courts decision says Cressman adheres to historic Christian

beliefs and believes it is a sin to hon-or or acknowledge anyone or anything as God besides the one true God.

He eventually decided not to pay the additional fees but to cover up the image on the standard plate without ob-scuring letters, tags or other identifying markers on the plate. He said state of-ficials told him it was illegal to cover up any part of it and he might have to pay a $300 fine.

Cressman is still paying additional fees for specialty license plates on two vehicles registered in the state but does not want to incur extra expense to avoid expressing a message contrary to his re-ligious beliefs, the decision states.

Mr. Cressmans complaint states a plausible compelled speech claim, it concludes. He has alleged sufficient facts to suggest that the Sacred Rain Arrow image on the standard Okla-homa license plate conveys a particu-larized message that others are likely to understand and to which he objects.

WICHITA, Kan. (AP) After months of delay, Wichita police began testing a new electronic ticketing system Tuesday in some of their cars, with a goal of saving money, writing more tickets and improving officers safety.

The eCitation program allows an officer to swipe the drivers license through a card reader, enter the violation information and then print a ticket that looks like a grocery receipt.

The system, which costs about $500,000 to install, was originally approved last May and had been

scheduled to be in place by the end of 2012 but several glitches delayed it, The Wichita Eagle reported (http://bit.ly/19lzNlG ).

The system will solve problems caused by officers writing illegible tickets, while also allowing officers to write more tickets, Wichita Police Capt. Darrell Atteberry said Monday.

The system could reduce the time it takes to write a ticket to 60 seconds from three to five minutes, he said, although he said the primary goal is to improve officer safety by reducing the

time officers must stand outside their vehicles.

If you look at line-of-duty deaths for officers, every year there are a number of them that are traffic-related, he said. We dont want that to happen here.

If the system passes a two-week testing period, the department will install it all 175 police cars. It has an annual maintenance fee of $51,300.
