If you’ve got enough of it, Fri-day night is the night to let your hair down.

One sure test is to participate in the “Drag Race” as a runup to the Charlie Melvin Mad Bomber Run For Your Life race.

Men and women alike are en-couraged to dress in a cross-gen-der manner and then “compete” in teams of four in a relay. Last

year a woman’s garter was trans-ferred from one participant’s leg to another.

“It’s better than a baton,” said David Toland, executive director of Thrive Allen County and one of the organizers for Friday’s events.

If you don’t have a thing to wear — no worries.

Dresses, hats, purses, jewelry and other accoutrements will be available at Elizabeth Donnelly’s

The Shirt Shop, 20 W. Jackson, where participants will have a wide selection from which to choose. Doors open at 10 p.m.

Registration to participate in the drag race is $5. That also gains participants entrance to a 9:30 p.m. pre-party at the Thrive office, 12 W. Jackson. Tickets can be purchased in advance at the Thrive office or Friday night on

LE ROY — Unlike the mecha-nized behemoths of today, Ray Whiteley’s mowing outfit was considerably quieter.

His “engine” — a pair of 1,200-pound mules — needed only an occasional break from the sti-fling summer heat as Whiteley traversed his way around an 18-acre prairie hay meadow.

“It’s a little warm, so we’ve been taking it easy,” Whiteley said. “It’s our little hobby.”

The mules were pulling White-ley’s antique sickle bar mower, a small wagon with cutting bar

attached. The bar was triggered through a gear box engaged as its wheels roll.

With no mechanical engine to speak of, the only noise emanat-ing from his unit was from the teeth of the seven-foot cutting bar rotating back and forth.

Joining Whiteley was neighbor and friend Greg Gleue, with his own mowing outfit, another sick-le bar mower pulled by a pair of Percheron draft horses.

“We’re having some fun with it,” Whiteley joked. “Greg’s kind of a wimp about it. He needs a

Calls to the 911 dispatch center average one almost every 10 min-utes.

And while that may sound a lit-tle slow, played out over 24 hours a day and every day of the year, the total comes to 55,000.

“That’s what we received last year,” Angie Murphy, dispatch center director, told Allen County commissioners Tuesday morn-ing.

The call total — she figures half or more are for true emer-gencies — wasn’t the point of her appearance, but the magnitude of the number captivated commis-sioners.

Murphy was before commis-sioners to request a 20 percent increase in the department’s bud-get for 2012, up $126,000 over this year’s $490,000.

The increase seemed pretty hefty. Murphy reasoned health insurance will cost an additional $50,000 and another $6,000 was expected for Kansas Public Em-

When Brian Pekarek was hired as superintendent of the Iola school district in February, he saw an opportunity to “reinvigo-rate” USD 257.

With a focus on academic achievement and public transpar-ency, Pekarek hopes he can fur-ther success for the district and the more than 1,300 students rely-ing on it.

An anticipated field of a thou-sand runners and walkers, who will flee Iola’s downtown busi-ness district early Saturday as Charley Melvin did in 1905, can be thankful that Melvin chose to do his dastardly deed in the mid-dle of the night.

Had the event being commemo-rated occurred in mid-day, par-ticipants would battle oppressive heat and humidity, with both forecast at the upper end of the discomfort scale during daytime Friday and Saturday. As is, they will run and walk in somewhat more inviting temperatures pre-dicted for the low 70s by 12:26 a.m. Saturday.

The race — many walkers will be out for a stroll — will cap activ-ities that start late Friday after-noon and will go on throughout the evening. Included will be the much-awaited “drag race,” fea-turing some of the area’s finest men and women dressed in drag.

Chris Weiner at Thrive Allen County, co-sponsor with Allen County Crimestoppers for “The Charley Melvin Mad Bomber Run for your Life,” said total of partic-ipants was approaching 450, with about 200 signed on for the 5-kilo-meter run. The walk will follow a 3-kilometer course.

“Registration, including prob-ably a fifth online, has really

picked up,” Weiner said Tuesday afternoon. As in the past, “we ex-pect a lot of people to sign up Fri-day night.”

Cost is $12 for the walk. Run-ners’ fees are $14 for youth to age 17, $20 for adults and $17 each for members of teams.

Runners in the third annual event will aim for best times of 15.40.06 for males and 20.44.78 for females, set last year.

Sticks of “Melvin Dy-No-Mite” will be awarded the first three places for males and females in each of five ages groups, 15 and under, 16-30, 31-45, 46-60 and 61 and over.

All participants will break from in front of the post office. Runners will follow a course that will take them on West to Wash-ington, then Jackson, Jefferson and East to Cottonwood. They

ATLANTA (AP) — Former Atlanta schools Superintendent Beverly Hall knew about cheat-ing allegations on standardized tests but either ignored them or tried to hide them, according to a state investigation.

An 800-page report released Tuesday to The Associated Press by Gov. Nathan Deal’s office through an open records request shows several educators report-ed cheating in their schools. But the report says Hall, who won the national Superintendent of the Year award in 2009, and other administrators ignored those re-ports and sometimes retaliated against the whistleblowers.

The yearlong investigation shows educators at nearly four dozen Atlanta elementary and middle schools cheated on stan-dardized tests by helping stu-dents or changing the answers once exams were handed in.

The investigators also found a “culture of fear, intimidation and retaliation” in the school district over the cheating allegations, which led to educators lying about the cheating or destroying

Iolan stays positive in dim circumstances

By RICHARD [email protected]

Iola City Council members took their first in-depth look at the city’s 2013 spending plan Wednesday.

Council members heard from seven department heads during a three-hour budget session — an-other was planned for this after-noon — in order for the 2013 bud-get to be approved in August.

Council members rescheduled a budget hearing for 6 p.m. Aug. 6. The hearing originally was sched-uled for next week but was pushed back when it became evident city planners would not be able to pub-lish the proposed budget at least 10 days in advance.

City Administrator Carl Slaugh said the plan is to develop a bud-get “very close in dollars” to what the city is spending this year.

Proposals for general fund ex-penditures are at $4,520.929, an increase of about 2.4 percent over this year, Slaugh noted. He hopes to maintain an ad valorem tax levy for the city at about 37 mills.

Transfers from utility funds, which has been the city’s prac-tice for years in order to supple-ment the general fund, comprised about 34 percent of the general fund in 2011.

Another source of revenue — sales taxes — looks encouraging, Slaugh said, with collections com-ing in 1.3 percent above what was collected in 2011. Sales tax collec-tions in 2011 were about 4 percent higher than in 2010.

The 2013 budget will include a few changes in how the budget is put together, Slaugh said.

Register website gets new lookBy ALLISON TINN

[email protected] Iola Register’s website

has undergone a facelift and readers are being given a chance to access the site for free until the end of August.

“We tried to make the new design look more like a news-paper,” said Paul Sombke, the Register’s pagination, web and graphics designer.

The website went live July 2. The Register had not received

complaints about the old website but felt the content was limited. The website “looked dated and one-dimensional,” Sombke said. “The site was in much need of a new look.”

Some of the changes made were individual columns, a se-ries of multiple photos and sto-ries can been seen on the home page, drop down lists can now be used as well as a search tool.

In addition to the new look, us-ers can now use social network-ing sites through the Register’s home page.

Without having a Twitter ac-count someone can follow the Twitter feed. People can “like” the Register’s Facebook page from the website and post com-ments from their Facebook ac-count.

The site is all-browser friend-ly and can be accessed through

the mobile site on Smartphones and tablets.

The past several years haven’t been easy for John Zahm.

Zahm, 72, was diagnosed with prostate cancer in 1994, had the gland surgically removed and about five years later thought he was on the verge of another bout with malignancy.

In more recent years spinal stenosis and other back problems have him daily taking medication to control the pain.

“But,” he says with conviction and optimism of a person who has put off a date with the grim reaper, “I’m happy to be here.”

He takes each day as it comes, which includes a struggle to be on his feet more than a few min-utes at a time. He has to lean on a shopping cart during visits to the grocery. He tends a small garden, situated near his back door on the

west edge of Gas, by watering to-mato plants from the comfort of a lawn chair.

There are many other things that most folks take for granted that he no longer can do.

“I’d love to go fishing, but I just can’t,” he said, while enjoying a bowl of homemade ice cream he concocted with an electric ma-chine, which required no more than him stirring the mix and pouring it in.

ZAHM BEGAN cutting hair in Iola in 1963, the second barber in a small shop in the first block of West Street owned by Charlie Reeder.

Over the years he developed a faithful clientele and eventually purchased the shop.

Times were good, hobbies were many — arrowhead hunting was a favorite — and when a urinary infection became a nuisance, Zahm figured its recurrence after a dose of medicine cleared it up

Iola on governor’s tour of water plantsBy ROB BURKETT

[email protected] Gov. Sam Brownback

inspected the Neosho River Wednesday afternoon near the Iola water treatment plant as part of his drought tour.

The governor spoke with lo-cal officials about the conditions in southeast Kansas. Toby Ross, Iola water superintendent, up-dated Brownback on current

conditions for the city. “As long as we keep getting wa-

ter pumped our way from John Redmond Reservoir we’ll be OK for now,” Ross said. “I can see water restrictions coming if we don’t get rain soon. It’ll be bad.”

Iola is part of a 55-county stretch of central and eastern Kansas under drought warn-ing. According to both Ross and Tracy Streeter, director of Kan-

sas Water Office, though there is cause for concern, a critical tip-ping point hasn’t been reached. This could change in short order.

“John Redmond is 12½ feet at its deepest right now,” Earl Lew-is, assistant director of Kansas Water Office, said.

“If you go pull another foot out you’ll be pulling in your shore line,” observed Brownback.

Iola Mayor Bill Shirley talked

to the governor about how things are being affected locally.

“Right now we are watching things very carefully when it comes to our industrial plants,” Shirley said. “They consume a lot of water and won’t be able to do anything for our local econ-omy if they aren’t getting what they need.”

WASHINGTON (AP) — There’s more advice on the contentious is-sue of prostate cancer screening: A leading group of cancer spe-cialists says the decision hinges in part on a man’s life expectancy.

Doctors should discuss the pos-sible pros and cons of those PSA blood tests with men expected to live longer than another 10 years, the American Society of Clinical Oncology recommended.

within the city limits, he also was adamant about the effects the drought is having on the entire coun-ty and farmers especially. The governor agreed things have been tough for farm-ers in the region.

Brownback asked about a water conservation plan for the area, making sure that local officials would be ready to respond to a possible esca-lation of stress on water sys-tems throughout the area.

“We absolutely have a plan ready,” Ross said. “We pull it out periodically to make sure we can address what we need to do in this kind of situation. We aren’t there yet but we are prepared to go into a plan if we need to.”

Streeter also emphasized all levels of the system are operating the way they are supposed to.

“The executive orders

you’ve put out automatical-ly kick in levels of planning around the state,” Streeter told Brownback. “Every-thing is going the way it should so far. We just need some rain soon or we’ll have to start up some other levels of our plans.”

According to Ross, that means Iola would order a restriction on outside water usage with the pos-sibility of shutting down car washes and other, what Ross and Streeter termed, were non-essential needs.

After the governor de-parted for the Chanute area, Shirley emphasized the water plan for Iola will handle any situation likely to occur.

“We’re doing fine right now,” Shirley said. “The governor knows it and we’ll continue to keep watching to make sure we stay on top of the situation.”

Kansas Gov. Sam Brownback, left, and Toby Ross, Iola water superintendent, discuss the flow of water on the south side of the dam on the west end of Iola. The gov-ernor visited Iola as part of his self-described, “drought tour.”

for a few weeks was an anomaly.

“I’d never heard of the PSA (blood test),” he said. “I don’t think most guys then had.”

A urologist recommend-ed the test. Zahm, then in his early 50s, should get started with the regimen to establish a base line, with annual follow-ups to see if changes might por-tend a problem, he was told.

“My first test came back at 8.0,” he recalled. “I don’t think they knew too much about what the range should be then. I was told to come back in a year for an-other test.”

A year later the PSA (prostate-specific antigen) reading had jumped to 14.0.

“Not good,” was his doc-tor’s assessment. A biopsy, to see if cancer might be the cause of elevation, was ordered.

“They took six samples and, as I remember, there was cancer in three of them,” Zahm said.

SURGERY was ordered.The result wasn’t as

good as Zahm had hoped — the cancer had escaped the walnut-sized gland and was found in three lymph nodes.

Treatment did not in-clude radiation or chemo-therapy, although Zahm was given medication to stem production of testos-terone and was told to have a blood test every three months to check his PSA level.

“In about five years it (PSA number) started up,” he said.

On the strength of the periodic tests and other

diagnostics, a cancer spe-cialist “told me the cancer likely would be back in two or three years and if it was, there wasn’t much they could do.”

In 1999, five years after surgery and soon after be-ing told his months might be numbered, Zahm hung up his clippers and walked away from his shop.

Rather than crawl into a hole and wait for it to cave in, Zahm decided travel, to see things he’d always wanted to see and spend time with his sister, Judy Moss. Some domestic changes also gave Zahm a new outlook.

“Judy and I went to Egypt — we’ve always been pretty tight — and I go to Las Ve-gas pretty often, where she lives,” he said.

Then the back pain start-ed.

When cancer gets out of the prostate, doctors told Zahm, one of the first plac-es it often goes is into bones and the spine.

It was hard for Zahm to stay positive with back pain worsening by the day and the specter of cancer hang-ing over his head.

However, his PSA num-bers had stabilized and ex-tensive examinations found no malignancy.

Now, with stenosis and other spinal problems af-fecting his gait and mak-ing pain a fact of life, doc-tors treat him only for what they know.

“I spend a lot of time ly-ing on the floor — that’s easy on my back — and go to bed pretty early, right af-ter taking a pain pill,” he said. “I try to stay awake, but I’m usually asleep well before dark.”

WHEN ZAHM learned he had cancer he began a per-sonal crusade.

“A lot of guys then didn’t know about the PSA (test),” he said. “I tried to educate them. I talked to them into having the blood test.

“One guy promised me he’d get the test and didn’t for a year,” Zahm remem-bered. “When he finally did, the number was 250. I told him he’d better get with his doctor right away.

“I told everyone who came into the shop that age doesn’t make a difference. One customer, in his early

40s, got sick. They found out it was prostate cancer. He didn’t make it.

“The best thing is to catch it (prostate cancer) early, when it can be treated successfully. They have a lot of remedies today, but they won’t work if you don’t know you have cancer.”

WICHITA, Kan. (AP) — An engineering building at Wichita State University has a new name after the widow of a late Cessna executive committed $3 million to WSU.

Starting this month, the Engineer-ing Research Building began going by the name Donald L. Beggs Hall. Beggs stepped down as Wichita State’s presi-dent in June after 13 years.

Velma Wallace says Beggs and his wife, Shirley, have had a “tremendous” influence on the university and commu-nity. She says naming the building after Beggs is a “testimony to his many con-tributions.”

In early spring when the temperatures were ideal, work progressed on the demolition of the two business buildings. The bank building is down along with a bit of the join-ing building on the east. Hot temperatures in June and July have slowed the project. Charlie Ward and Steve Wallace are the ap-pointed Safety and Demoli-tion Committee. A frontage protection wall was erect-ed last year and remains for safety measures. This project needs volunteers to finish the job.

Donations are welcome and should be left at City Hall. They may be mailed to City of Colony, 339 Cher-ry St., P.O. Box 68, Colony,

KS 66015. The city council has set up a fund for this project. These funds will be used to pay for the cost of tearing down the remaining building. A park has been planned to fill the building vacancies. Benches, trash cans and other items (once the removal is complete) will be needed.

Names that were recent-ly collected of Colony citi-zens serving in the military will be added to a list that will be placed on a wall in the park. Anyone not listed that need be, please contact Kloma Buckle 620-852-3367, email [email protected] or Jessica Riebel, email [email protected].

The list will also be sent to Ken Miller in Garnett. The American Legion is gathering names of Ander-son County veterans for a memorial to be placed on the Garnett courthouse lawn.August Celebrations

The reason for the problem is that iPads are not equipped with the Flash Player program, Sombke said. This will be remedied by the Register making it easier for iPad users to navigate to the online edition site.

“It should be up and going by next week,” he said.

Prior to the new web-site going live the website was getting on average 4,000 hits per week. Now, the website’s hits have more than doubled. One week after the site went live it received 9,562 hits.

“If we continue to keep our website updated then the number of hits should only improve,” Sombke said.

lines issued this spring by the U.S. Preventive Ser-vices Task Force, which recommended against routine PSA screening for all men. That government advisory panel found little if any evidence that PSA testing saves lives — and said too many men suffer impotence, incontinence, heart attacks, occasion-ally even death from treat-ment of tiny tumors that never would have killed them.

In its own review, the oncologists’ group ASCO concluded that doctors should discourage PSAs for men with less than 10-year life expectancy, for those very reasons.

But it didn’t find the evidence as clear-cut for younger or healthier men — and released a step-by-step guide, in easy-to-understand language, to help them and their pri-mary care physicians un-derstand the controversy and make an informed decision. The new advice echoes guidelines from the American Cancer So-ciety.

“This is a gray area of medicine,” said Dr. Ethan Basch, a prostate cancer specialist at Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center who co-chaired ASCO’s review. “That’s made this a very challeng-ing discussion, and a very challenging decision.”

The guide makes clear that before men decide to have the PSA test, they should think about how they’d react to a suspi-cious result, and all the testing and treatment de-cisions that would entail.

Too much PSA, or pros-tate-specific antigen, in the blood only sometimes signals prostate cancer is brewing. It also can mean a benign enlarged prostate or an infection. Only a biopsy can tell. Most men will get pros-tate cancer if they live long enough. Some 240,000 U.S. men a year are diag-nosed with it, most with slow-growing tumors that carry a very low risk of morphing into the kind that can kill.

Two huge studies, one in Europe and one in the U.S., evaluated whether routine screening can save lives. Without screen-ing, about 5 in every 1,000 men die of prostate can-cer over 10 years. The Eu-ropean study found PSA testing might prevent one of those deaths, while the U.S. study found no differ-ence.

ASCO’s patient guide highlights the European study results.

Opinion

Iola is painting a new por-trait of itself.

The Charley Melvin Run for Your Life covers the can-vas with bright colors in a slightly zany scene. Literally thousands of runners and their camp followers now will conjure up memories of that midnight fun when they think Iola.

Charley Melvin, the drag race, the only 5K in the world that starts at 12:26 a.m. — these are all young colors that paint Iola as a place the young thrive.

That’s a welcome switch.Thursday evening’s country

market on the square is anoth-er feature of Iola’s new aspect; of its youngness, its different-ness. What other farmers mar-ket features amateur chefs giv-

ing demonstrations?But maybe the new Iola is

just the old gal with a new out-fit, spiffy ear-bobs and a profes-sional make-up job. The north side of the square makes the point. Same buildings. New cosmetics. Delightful. A place for young people to do business.

Farm City Days is refurbish-ing itself, too.

And the Bowlus Fine Arts Center stage brightens every new season with a catalog of events aimed at the thoughtful and fun-loving of every age.

Say Iola and these are the things that leap to mind. It’s a basket of goodies that never gets too full. Add your dream to it. Make Iola an even better place for young folks to live.

— Emerson Lynn, jr.

New activities makeIola more attractive

Seven more days of above-100 temperatures are forecast for Iola, with nary a trace of rain to give relief. Be-ware and be wary.

Extreme temperatures like these are dangerous to people and pets. If you must be away from the air conditioning for any length of time, drink lots of fluids, dress like it’s hot out-side, and forget doing physical things such as playing tennis or ditch-digging.

Keep Fido and Kitty Kat in-

side with you.Those with asthma and oth-

er lung diseases are particu-larly vulnerable, regardless of their age. The old — one needn’t be as old as this writer to qualify — and disabled are also more likely than others to suffer heat strokes and ex-haustion.

As the song warns, only mad dogs and Englishmen go out in the mid-day sun. And, truth be known, it’s hard on them, too.

— Emerson Lynn, jr.

You’ve been warned

Dear editor,I would like to take this op-

portunity to support Ed Bideau’s election to the Kansas House of Representatives. Ed and I go back to our friendship days and time spent at NCCC. Simply put, we could not ask for a more objective and passionate person to serve us in Topeka.

Ed Bideau “gets it” when it comes to economic development. You grow and support existing businesses and manufacturers as they are already vested in our community and offer the greatest potential for success. We share a common goal of creating oppor-tunities for our youth to return “home.”

Ed understands the impor-tance of fiscal responsibility as it relates to taxes and tax dollar management. No doubt, Ed is an advocate for the rights of the in-dividual and makes sure they are heard! He is not intimidated from taking a position that may not be popular but doing what is right.

Ed and I have discussed issues in the past and without exception, agree or disagree, our conversa-tions were civil and focused on what is best for our community. My friend is worthy of your sup-port and he will provide a strong voice for all constituents.

Ed Cox,Chanute, Kan.

Dear editor,It seems we need to do some

very serious thinking. What is going on as we travel around our wonderful town? Even as we go each direction out of the city we see the same thing. These great big RED SIGNS are everywhere, even the small ones. These cost money and someone has to pay the bills.

It is rather obvious that some people want to benefit by putting a puppet in Topeka! If we had a major problem in Iola, of course, I’m certain someone would be in court by now or in jail.

In closing, think!John D. Rockefeller, in one of

his last interviews, was asked how much is enough? He said, “Just a little more.” He died one month later. Some have done very well in Iola and they still want more.

In my life, I like to live in grati-tude with all. Even our schools and taxes will be affected by the decisions to be made soon.

Respectively submitted,Don Hillbrant,

Iola, Kan.

Dear editor, Although I do not live locally, I

have connections with southeast Kansas and subscribe to the Iola Register.

I was dismayed and sur-prised that two recent editions have had front page pictures of “respected businessmen” dressed in drag. It is always good to sup-port community efforts and the run seems a worthwhile endeavor.

What I find so unfortunate is the choice of theme: drag queens. Respectful business means we are all mindful of all citizenry in-cluding marginalized groups, all of which are protected under our constitution.

Sexual identity is a critical and complex issue and carries one of the highest suicide rates due to exclusion and torment. It goes beyond the more familiar gay and lesbian communities to include transgendered persons (“drag queens”) among others. To make fun of someone, for any purpose, is totally disrespectful and bor-ders on bullying.

What does this teach our chil-dren about acceptance and differ-ences when we make fun of a par-ticular group of people and then proudly display that ridicule on the front pages of our community newspapers?

Recently you covered an event of a transgendered woman who spoke in Iola to provide informa-tion and sensitivity regarding transgendered persons. Obvi-ously no one attended or cared as they went forward with the “tra-dition” regardless. It is time that

all communities, including small, isolated towns, turn their atten-tion to what is happening outside their immediate region and real-ize that inclusion of all is criti-cal to the health and growth of the United States. I can only hope that the run committee can come up with an appropriate and fun al-ternate theme by next year.

Diana Wallace, Appleton, Wis.

Dear editor,I would like to recommend your

vote for Rob Francis as county commissioner. I have known Rob for four years and have worked with him through the senior cen-ter meal site. He is family orient-ed and is like one of the family. It is good to have a Christian leader helping to guide our county.

He has experience and dedica-tion dealing with the issues fac-ing us. He is working to bring a veterans clinic to Iola to expand the facilities of the new hospital. Our veterans need a place closer to home for their benefits.

He acknowledges the fact that housing will be a problem if new hospital personnel move to Iola. Also we need a central recycling area rather than filling up our landfills. This will bring jobs and boost the economy.

He has worked with the senior center meal site about the prob-lems with the floors. With all the budget cuts it has been hard to set aside funds to keep the senior center up to standards. We have a lot of rentals and are proud of our senior center. The floors are a concern right now but will be taken care of in the near future.

He has the experience as a county commissioner. He knows the problems that face the com-missioners and is able to deal with them. He is very civic-mind-ed and is aware of the problems that face us in the near future.

Please vote for Rob Francis as an ongoing county commissioner with experience.

Glenda Creason,Iola, Kan.

Letters to the editor

During World War II, Brit-ish Prime Minister Winston Churchill said, “For myself, I am an optimist…it does not seem to be much use being anything else.”

The quote relates to the current conditions of education in Kan-sas. Although public education has lost more than $500,000 mil-lion since 2008, which is 11 per-cent of Kansas school districts’ operating budgets, there has been a small amount of good news, which I mention in an effort to create hope for the benefit of our students.

Read Kansas ReadFirst is the governor’s focus

on early literacy skills with his

“Read Kansas Read” summer reading program. The statewide program encourages children to read over the summer months in an effort to maintain literacy skills gained during the school year.

Public service announcements on television from various Kan-sas leaders and sports icons have

challenged children to “read more books” than the sports icons.

The website, www.readkan-sasread.ks.gov, not only allows students and their parents the ability to find books within their reading ability, but also in their particular interest area. The website allows parents the ability to find the books that they want through the Kansas library system, or they may pur-chase the books through an out-side vendor.

Career and tech programsThe second positive bit of good

news from Topeka deals with the Legislature’s boost of Kansas’

Career and Technology Educa-tion (CTE) programs in the state. Although this legislation does not alleviate the severe cuts that have been inflicted on K-12 education, it does provide free tuition for Kansas high school students who enroll in CTE courses at commu-nity or technical colleges.

By starting the process of earning industry-recognized cre-dentials in high school, students should gain a “leg-up” in an oth-erwise crowded job market when they are finished with K-12 educa-tion.

State board requestThe last bit of positive news is

the Kansas State Board of Educa-

tion’s stance on increasing Kan-sas public education funding in the state.

During July, the board voted to stand united behind the children of Kansas by saying that $450 mil-lion needs to be added to Kansas schools for the benefit of the chil-dren. This money is to replace the loss of funding dating back to 2008. From this statement, the Kansas State Board of Education hopes to influence lawmakers in Topeka to put more money into education in order to fill these gaps.

It is my hope and prayer that these small positive steps will eventually have a large impact on the children of our state in the coming years.

Happy to share positive news when we can get itBrian Pekarek

Starting next year, equip-ment reserve funds, used by specific departments, will be more closely defined, Slaugh said, to prevent one department from being raided for other departmen-tal purchases. Street and Alley Superintendent Dan Leslie noted he set aside $134,000 for equipment pur-chases, only to have the city use it to make a fire truck purchase. Leslie told council members that if the money is not replaced, he will have to defer equip-ment purchases, some for years into the future.

In addition, the city es-tablished a storm water fund so that expenditures can be tracked more close-ly. In previous years, those funds had been a part of the general fund.

AMONG THE specific department budget propos-als:

— Slaugh is seeking a $40,000 increase in budget authority to fund salaries for Iola’s fire and ambu-lance departments. He also plans to shift payroll costs from the ambulance budget to the fire department’s.

Revenues have fallen short of the city’s hopes over the past two years, Slaugh said.

Ron Conaway, Iola Emer-gency Medical Service di-rector, clarified Slaugh’s as-sessment.

“The ambulance fund is self-sufficient, but not to the level to support the salaries they put in the budget,” Conaway said.

The city budgeted $380,000 for ambulance services this year, includ-

ing salaries. So far, the ambulance has brought in $155,000 in revenues.

“That’s enough to pay for supplies, things like that, with some surplus to pay for salaries,” Conaway said. “But not that much in sala-ries.”

Slaugh requested salary expenditures go up from $676,000 in the fire depart-ment this year to $717,894 in 2013.

City Clerk Roxanne Hut-ton also noted the volume of ambulance calls has gone down since the city assumed control of its own EMS service in 2009 be-cause Iola no longer covers as many out-of-town calls as it did when it was part of the Allen County EMS pro-gram.

— Hutton requested a 2013 budget authority of $507,000, up from $472,165 this year. Hutton said the increase is attributable to more spent for the city’s an-nual audit, as well as high-er town liability insurance coverage.

— The Police Depart-ment, under Chief Jared Warner, is requesting $1,134,665 in spending au-thority, up from $1,119.057 this year. The bulk of the increase would be to accom-modate an increase for sala-ries, Warner said.

— Leslie is request-ing $888,600 in 2013, down from $898,544 this year. The smaller request is due to Leslie’s plans to provide chip-seal “in a smaller part of town,” covering 128 blocks. That compares to more than 200 blocks chip-sealed this summer.

— The Parks Depart-ment request of $389,065 is up less than $4,000 from the $385,996 approved this year. Parks Superintendent Berkley Kerr briefed coun-cil members on the Cem-etery Department’s grave stone upgrade. So far, 451 tombstones have been re-paired or straightened at old Iola Cemetery. Even bet-ter, the project has come in under budget both years of existence.

“We’ll run out of time be-fore we run out of money,” Kerr said.

— Council members reaf-firmed their desire to not be compensated for their service.

FORT SCOTT — Iola Swim Team went into its final SEK League swim meet not at full force Wednesday. Other commitments depleted the Seahorse ranks when they took on host Fort Scott.

“We had a rough night in the water because of low swimmer numbers,” said Emma Gilmore, Iola coach. “Fort Scott is a tough team and they didn’t hold back.”

Gilmore said the Iola team has a week to work on polishing things up and “we’ll be ready for the league meet.”

Iola’s Seahorses will travel to Independence for the SEK Swim League Championships, July 27-28. The 10-and-under swimmers compete from 2-7 p.m. Friday, July 27, then Saturday’s session is for the 11-and-older divisions.

Here are the Iola results from Fort Scott:

6-and-Under DivisionGirls: 25-yd freestyle-3. Elza Clift,

Iola High’s cross country camp is Monday through Thursday next week. It is for any boy or girl — freshman through senior class — planning to going out for cross country for IHS this fall.

“Even if they think they might want to try it, we want them to come to camp next week,” said Marv Smith, longtime IHS cross country and track coach.

The camp workouts are from 7 to 8:15 each evening at the Lake Bassola practice course. Lake Bassola is south of Iola and the team meets at the end of Bassett Street.

Smith said cross country work-outs usually start right after July 4 but with the extreme heat, he waited later to get things started.

“It has been still 96 degrees at 9 p.m. The Bassola course has lots of shade and we’ll have water for the runners,” Smith said.

For more information contact Smith at 363-4343.

BURLINGTON — Down 1-0 and no hits in the game, Iola Ameri-can Legion Post 15’s A Indians went to work in the fourth inning Wednesday night.

The A Indians scored 12 runs on nine hits in the bottom of the fourth inning. That proved to be enough.

Iola beat Emporia 12-1 in a run-ruled, four-inning contest to open the Kansas American Legion Sin-gle A Zone 3 tournament. In the other zone tournament opener, host team Burlington decked Eu-reka 15-4.

Tonight, Emporia plays Eureka at 6 o’clock in the losers bracket of the double elimination event. Iola (16-6) takes on Burlington at 8 o’clock.

On the line is a berth in the 2012 Kansas American Legion Single A State Tournament next week at Pratt.

The Zone 3 tournament wraps up on Friday. The winner of the Emporia-Eureka game plays the loser of Iola-Burlington at 6 p.m.

The winner of tonight’s Iola-Burlington game moves into the

championship contest. That team will await the winner of Friday’s first game. The championship game is at 8 p.m. Friday.

All games are played on the Burlington High School baseball field. If a second game is needed to determine the championship, it will be played at 10 a.m. Satur-day.

Against Emporia, Grayson Pearish threw one-hitter for Iola. Emporia scored a run in the top of the fourth, helped by two Iola errors. Pearish walked one batter in the game and struck out five.

With one gone in the bottom of the fourth, Iola’s offense took off. The Indians connected for nine hits, used three walks issued by Emporia pitchers and two hit bat-ters to move runners around the bases.

Eric Heffern had a single and a triple in the inning and drove in four runs. Trent Latta hit a two-run triple. Aaron Barclay plated two runs on his second single of the inning.

Pearish hit two singles. Shae Beasley singled. Cole Morrison brought in the 12th run of the in-ning on a base hit.

LYTHAM ST. ANNES, England (AP) — This looked familiar: Ti-ger Woods atop the leaderboard at a major championship.

Strolling the course with that customary swagger, Woods re-sumed the quest for his 15th ma-jor title with a blistering start at Royal Lytham & St. Annes, mak-ing four birdies in the first seven holes to take the early lead in the British Open today.

The conditions couldn’t have been any better for going low.

An early morning sprinkle gave way to dry weather, the sun making an occasional appearance through the low-hanging clouds. There was hardly any breeze blowing in off the nearby Irish Sea, the flags atop the 18th grand-stand barely rippling.

Woods, Masters winner Bubba Watson and Australia’s Adam Scott were among those who took advantage.

Showing excellent control off the tee — a must at Royal Lytham — Woods got rolling with a birdie at the opening par-3, rapped in another at the fourth, then grabbed the outright lead with a 20-footer at No. 6. He gri-maced after each of his first two shots at the par-5 seventh, but was still in good shape, just short of a greenside pot bunker. He deftly chipped right up next to the flag and tapped in for another birdie.

Watson, whose gambling style seemed ill-suited for a British Open, was downright steady.

“I couldn’tbe happier.”Mary Hughes is well-known in the Parsons area for her volunteer work –

and her pies. Her pastries have brought hundreds of dollars at charity auc-tions. So when osteoarthritis in her shoulder and knee threatened to slow herdown, she chose replacement surgery with orthopedic surgeon Dr. BradMeister at Labette Health.

“The shoulder went well, so I got the knee done,” she said.“It was wonderfulafter it was all over,” she said. “I have no pain.”

Going through Joint Camp helped prepare Mary for her surgeries and whatto expect every step of the way. She was impressed with the number of peoplefrom all over southeast Kansas who were there for treatment.

From surgery through follow-up exercises,the staff became like family, she said. “I had a hard time breaking away,” she laughs. “They had to kick me out!”

Having orthopedic surgery at LabetteHealth was a good experience, she said. “They did a great job of taking care of me.”

“I liked not having to go to the city to have it done,” she said. “We have nationally known orthopedic surgeons and they do a good job, so why go any place else?”“I couldn’t be happier.”

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — Right pitch, wrong spot.

That was Josh Kinney’s assessment of Billy But-ler’s game-winning homer to lead off the bottom of the ninth inning that lifted the Kansas City Royals to an 8-7 victory over the Seattle Mariners on Wednesday night.

Kinney, the fourth Mari-ners pitcher, started off Butler with a slider. Then, with the count 1-1, he threw a fastball that Butler hit out to left-center for his 18th homer.

“It was the right pitch,” Kinney said. “I wanted to keep the ball away from that guy and make him hit it to right field, but the ball just ran right back over the middle of the plate. He’s supposed to hit it. I just missed my spot. You just say, ‘Hey, good AB.’ He got me this time. I’ll get him to-morrow.”

Mariners manager Eric Wedge stayed with Kinney (0-1) in the ninth, instead of bringing in closer Tom Wilhelmsen with the score tied.

“Josh was throwing the ball well,” Wedge said. “You have to save Tom un-til you’ve got a lead on the road. The pitch was up and Billy Butler is a good hit-ter.”

Mariners starter Kevin Millwood, who has not won since May 23, allowed seven runs and 10 hits, including a two-run homer to Lorenzo Cain, in five innings.

“Aside from one of But-ler’s hits and the homer, they didn’t hit the ball re-ally hard,” Millwood said. “I was up in the zone.”

Butler went 3-for-3 and walked twice to raise his av-

erage to .300, while he tops the club in home runs and with 56 RBIs. It was his sec-ond career walk-off homer, the previous was on June 1, 2011 against the Los Ange-les Angels.

“I just got a good pitch to hit and didn’t miss it there

at the end,” Butler said. “It was big to pick up the pitch-ing staff. It’s obviously been a tough series for them, but they’ve picked us up throughout the season.”

Greg Holland (4-2) pitched a perfect ninth for the win.

Cain, who had a pinch-hit homer Tuesday, hom-ered in the fifth inning with Butler aboard. Cain, who also singled and scored in the Royals’ three-run sec-ond inning, is 10-for-20 in his six-game hitting streak.

Royals starter Bruce

Chen, who had an 11.85 ERA while giving up 24 hits and 18 runs in 13 2/3 innings in his past three starts, gave up four runs and seven hits in 5 1/3 innings, walking none and striking out six.

Chen gave up a solo home run to Kyle Seager in the second and a two-run shot to Casper Wells in the fourth. He has allowed nine home runs in 19 innings over his past four starts.

The Royals led 7-4 after five innings. Alex Gordon had a two-run double in the fourth, while Cain homered in the fifth.

The Kansas City bullpen, however, failed to hold the lead after Chen left. The Mariners scored three runs in the seventh off Jose Mi-jares and Aaron Crow. Je-sus Montero hit a two-run single and scored on Sea-ger’s two-out double.

“The guys swung the

bats well, and off a differ-ent kind of pitcher,” Wedge said. “We had some long ABs, some good ABs. We pushed back to get back to get back in the game. Doing that on the road shows me something.”

Mike Moustakas doubled home Butler in the Royals’ three-run second. Bray-an Pena’s groundout and Chris Getz’s bunt single drove in the other runs in the inning.

Notes: LHP Will Smith will be recalled and start to-day for the Royals. He was 3-0 with a 1.30 ERA in his past four starts with Triple-A Omaha. ... The Royals op-tioned LHP Ryan Verdugo, who surrendered six runs, eight hits and two walks in 1 2/3 innings in his ma-jor league debut Monday, to Omaha. They promoted LHP Francisley Bueno from Omaha.

HOUSTON (AP) — Jeremy Lin is starting over in Hous-ton. He will have to explain why he said he would have rather stayed in New York.

The 23-year-old undrafted point guard out of Harvard is scheduled to meet the Houston media today, two days after the Knicks opted not to match the Rockets’ bold three-year, $25 million offer sheet.

Shortly after the deal be-came official on Tuesday night, SI.com reported that Lin had acknowledged in an interview, “Honestly, I preferred New York. But my main goal in free agency was to go to a team that had plans for me and wanted me.”

The Rockets certainly did.

“They made a very com-pelling pitch in terms of what I could bring to the team and for the city,” Lin said in a statement re-leased through the team on Wednesday. “I am also impressed with (Houston owner Leslie) Alexander and the management’s com-mitment to improving the team.”

Houston had Lin in train-ing camp in December, but waived him because the Rockets already had Goran Dragic and Kyle Lowry. He got to New York when the Knicks claimed him off waivers, was briefly

dropped to the developmen-tal league, was recalled, and then got his chance to play

when coach Mike D’Antoni put him in after the Knicks’ record dropped to 8-15.

Lin is American-born, but of Chinese and Taiwan-ese descent.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — Google says it will be making an announce-ment next week in Kansas City about its super-speed Internet network, but the company isn’t releasing any details yet.

The company has been adding fiber lines in Kan-

sas City on both sides of the state line after an-nouncing last year the metro area would the first in the nation to get its ultra-fast broadband ser-vice.

Google says its new ser-vice will deliver Internet access 100 times faster

than broadband connec-tions offered by telephone and cable companies.

A spokeswoman told The Associated Press Wednesday that Google wasn’t revealing much in advance so it could make a big splash July 26 when it makes its announcement.

WICHITA, Kan. (AP) — World War II veteran Don Revert says his first visit to Washington, D.C., would be a lot more fun if he weren’t so old.

The 99-year-old Wichita resident is scheduled to make the three-day trip July 31 on an Honor Flight out of Mid-Continent Air-port after two previous flights organized by a Great Bend group fizzled out.

The Wichita Eagle re-ported Revert would be the oldest veteran to fly out of Kansas as part of an Honor Flight, which is a national grass-roots effort that be-gan sending World War II veterans to Washington in 2005.

“If I was younger, I’d en-joy it a lot more,” he said.

The organization that operates the state’s newest hub, Kansas Honor Flight,

is based in Hutchinson and began operating in May, shortly after the state’s main hub for the flights, Central Prairie Honor Flights in Great Bend, was kicked out of the national organization because of management issues.

One of those issues oc-curred when a veteran fell out of a top bunk during an Honor Flight last year and broke a rib.

Central Prairie, which had conducted 17 flights carrying more than 1,100 WWII veterans to Wash-ington over a 2 1/2-year pe-riod, had to cancel all of its flights in 2012 because of a shortage of money.

Revert had been sched-uled to go on two of the canceled flights.

“Disappointed? Sure,” he said. “I’m not getting any younger.”

Southwest Airlines pro-vided free tickets for 25 vet-erans, but the airline won’t have flights out of Wichita until next year.

“That’s about a $10,000 contribution,” VanCamp-en. “That’s significant.”

He said Southwest’s gen-erosity toward the program is probably a one-time deal,

because the airline often provides free flights for new hubs.

It costs about $650 to send one veteran on the trip, while their guardians have to pay their own way.

Revert’s daughter, Mary Lou Early, said she was worried her dad would nev-er be on one of the flights.

That was until two weeks ago, when VanCampen called her to say there was a spot on the July 31 flight if her father wanted to go.

Early, who lives in Mount Vernon, Mo., is a retired Army nurse. She will be Revert’s “guardian” on the trip to help him get around.

“I think I can handle him,” she said.

Fundraising for the trips took a hit after Central Prairie’s problems. A few months after it was booted by the national headquar-ters, Central Prairie’s web-site said it still planned to do Honor Flights despite contrary statements by its board president. The web-site now sends visitors to Kansas Honor Flight’s site.

VanCampen said it costs about $20,000 to take 30 vet-erans on a flight to Wash-ington.

DAILY CRYPTOQUOTES - Here’s how to work it:

Sudoku is like a crossword puzzle, but uses numbers instead of words. The puzzle is a box of 81 squares, subdivided into 3x3 cubes of 9 squares each. Some squares are filled in with numbers. The rest should be filled in by the puzzler.Fill in the blank squares allowing the numbers 1-9 to appear only once in every row, once in ev-ery column and once in every 3x3 box. One-star puzzles are for begin-ners, and the difficulty gradually increases through the week to a very chal-lenging five-star puzzle.

Dear Dr. Donohue: I am writing for an answer to my question about testosterone supplements. I am 58 years old with no health problems, and I take no medicines. I have

one kidney due to a bicycle ac-cident at age 13. I was treated for an undescended testicle in sixth grade. While the surgery was successful, the testicle was not viable. My sex life is good. Given that I have only one testicle producing testoster-one and I am not getting any younger, would I benefit from testosterone supplement? — D.F.

Answer: Many men have only one testicle. It provides these men with a lifetime sup-ply of testosterone.

With a deficient supply of testosterone, the sex drive wanes, muscles shrink, bones weaken and a man is less able to perform vigorous physical activity. None of these signs has happened to you. It’s un-likely they ever will.

To settle any doubts in your mind, you can ask your doc-tor to obtain a blood testoster-one level. The blood should be drawn early in the morning, when testosterone is at its peak production. One test isn’t sufficient evidence to prove testosterone deficiency. A re-peat is necessary.

Possible complications from testosterone supplementation include growth of the prostate gland, with all the trouble that brings.

Testosterone might support the growth of prostate cancer cells that are in the gland. Both conditions have to be checked before hormone replenish-ment is considered.

Testosterone replacement may be needed

Dr. Paul Donohue
