Deputies chase stolen

A Paola man was arrested last week
after allegedly stealing a pickup truck in
Linn County and leading police and sher-
iff officials on a lengthy chase through
three counties.
Benjamin O. Wobker, 32, was booked
into the Lyon County Jail in Emporia,
Kan., following the June 29 incident.
According to a news release, a Lyon
County Sheriff’s deputy initiated a ve-
hicle stop on the pickup for speeding near
mile marker 128 on southbound U.S. In-
terstate 35 when the truck pulled off onto
the shoulder south of Industrial Road

Youths to get a taste of different culture
by chase jordan
A group of church mem-bers worked hard last week for a trip to the Big Apple.
On a warm Wednesday afternoon, several members
from the Grace Community Church of the Nazarene worked on collecting 400 bales of hay behind the field of the church. The hay will assist in the cost of a mis-sion trip to Jamaica Queens, New York.
LaDonna Miller, youth sponsor, will be one of four sponsors that will assist 17 youths. Miller said they wanted to pick other loca-tions like Texas and Michi-gan, but the spots were al-ready filled.
“I think it’s good for the kids to see something out-side of their own community and see a different culture,”
Miller said. “It makes them appreciate what they have.”
On July 17, they will leave Spring Hill in a passenger van. She said the teens will not be allowed to bring cer-tain things they are accus-tomed to having.
“The girls can’t bring straighteners or curling irons,” she said. “They are also leaving their iPods at
home.” Miller said they will stay
inside a church that’s not air conditioned.
She said she is a little nervous about traveling to New York, which is differ-ent than the Spring Hill environment.

Lennie Martin, who
just turned 18 years old, recently won
$20,000 in the Kansas

After turning 18, a recent Spring Hill graduate re-ceived a huge surprise for his birthday.
Lennie Martin received 18 $1 bills from his parents for his 18th birthday. He later went to Hometown Liquors
located on Webster Street in Spring Hill, since he was now the legal age to pur-chase lottery tickets.
Martin purchased nine $2 Bonus Crossword tickets.
“Out of the nine tickets I bought, I won $22,” Martin said in a release from Kan-sas Lottery. “I was happy with that. Since it was my birthday, I thought I’d try

The sounds of Frank Sina-tra will soon come to Spring Hill.
Songs of Sinatra, a singer and Academy Award win-ning actor, will be performed by The Festival Choir and The Festival Ensemble next week.
“We are not impersonat-ing or imitating Frank Sina-tra by any means,” said Eric Jones, piano player and di-rector of the ensemble.
Jones said Sinatra’s music
was selected because of the universal appeal of the artist who sang “Strangers in the Night,” and “My Way.”
“He recorded a lot,” Jones said. “It’s been difficult to twiddle it down to an hour,” said Jones, who has been a fan of Sinatra all his life.
The Festival Choir and The Festival Ensemble began in 2005, with members of the Spring Hill United Meth-odist Church, and later in-cluded others from various communities.
“It truly has become a com-munity supported, fine arts group and we’re glad to see that,” Jones said.
Jones and the ensem-ble will be assisted by Jon Daugharthy and Monica Lester. They have performed
as featured soloist in previ-ous concerts. Todd Davis will play percussion.
Proceeds from the dinner will go towards the ensem-bles that perform for Christ-mas and Easter. Prices for the event are $25 per couple and $15 for one person.
Julie Joeckel, coordinator of the ensembles, said about one-third of the show is al-ready sold out.
“The seating is extremely limited, so I encourage people not wait,” Joeckel said.
“Ol’ Blue Eyes,” a musical tribute to Sinatra, is sched-uled for 5 p.m. July 18 at the Spring Hill Community Center, 613 S. Race St. For more information call (913) 592-3660, or e-mail [email protected].

The Spring Hill Ruritans are gearing up to ride for charity.
The Small town Kan-sas Dice Run is scheduled for July 25. A rain date is scheduled for Aug. 1.
Every year, the Spring Hill Ruritans give scholar-ships to students so they can further their educa-tion. The event, which fea-tures a ride and live auc-tion, will benefit the schol-arship fund.
The ride is scheduled to begin at 10 a.m. at Power-sports 4 Less, 123 S. Main St. and end at El Tapa-tio, 22362 S. Harrison St., Spring Hill.
Mike Hackemeyer, pres-ident of the Spring Hill Ruritans, said last year’s motorcycle event was more of a bike show. He said the new event will engage more people.
“This year we’re making a dice run where we’ll be visiting four small towns,”

Pants’ starting
rotation takes serious hit
There is a reason
why men only shop
for clothes once
or twice a year. I like the
once a year plan myself,
but I have been known to
get tricked into it on more
than one occasion.
When you need some
new pants, however, you
need some new pants.
I had a heck of a month
for my favorite pants. You
know, the ones that fi t,
are comfortable and look
good.Hard to get a pair that
fi t all three categories,
even when you are buy-
ing them right off the
shelf.So, when you get a pair
like that, they are on the
team for life.Life for a pair of my
white khaki pants ended
in May at the Class 4A
state track and fi eld meet.
I wore them to cover
the state competition
and ended up having
the red color of the track
lanes transfer to the
pants where the stain
remained. So, they were
trashed during a trip to
St. Louis.My favorite black
slacks, well, they can still
be fi xed, but I still have
to send them off with a
friend.This was more than a
little embarrassing, that’s
why I feel compelled to
share the story. I was
covering an American
Legion baseball game,
set the scorebook on the
ground to take pictures,
to print out and use later
to write my story, when I
bent down a little bit and
heard a tear.You don’t want to hear

Phillies take Major title from Royals in last at bat
BY GENE MORRIS
The lead changed hands
seven times in seven in-
nings, but when the dust
settled the Phillies pushed
two runs across in the bot-
tom of the sixth and pulled
out a 9-8 thriller against
the Royals to win the Paola
Cal Ripken Major Division
championship.Tanner Karigan singled
to open the bottom of the
sixth inning. Tristan Geiger
walked with one out. Karig-
an came all the way around
and ended up scoring on a
wild pitch. Geiger scored
on a wild pitch for the game
winner.It was a back-and-forth
battle for six innings, bring-
ing fans on both sides to
their feet at times on June
30 and holding their breath
in the next moment.
Karigan and Geiger’s
swipes of home plate erased
an 8-7 lead Dylan Dreil-
ing gave the Royals with
a line drive shot to center
fi eld which kept going and
cleared the fence for a two-
run homer. The Royals just
couldn’t hold the lead in the
bottom of the sixth.
Steven Forschle and Dreil-
ing reached in the fi rst in-
ning and scored, putting
the Royals on top 2-0. Collin
Graves and Joe Buchman
also reached in the frame for
the Royals.Jace Trumbly, Keith Peu-
ser and Geiger scored in the
bottom of the fi rst inning as
the Phillies took a one-run
lead.
The second inning was
quiet for both sides. The Roy-
als went down in order. Gei-
ger reached for the Phillies
and was stranded at second
base.Dreiling reached and
scored in the top of the third
inning for the Royals, tying
the game 3-3.Trumbly got on base to
open the Phillies’ third in-
ning and scored for a 4-3
lead.Karigan, a hard thrower
who started the game for the
Phillies, reached base in the
fourth inning and scored to
make it a two-run lead, 5-3.
The Royals would not go
quietly into the dark night.
Not without a fi ght.
Joel Auten, the Royals
starter, singled to start the
fi fth inning. Clay Burnett
followed with a single.
The stage was set for Col-
lin Graves, who drove home
two runs with a double.
Graves then scored, high-

Royals’ center � elder Collin Graves ran back to the fence and grabbed this line drive right in
front of his face to rob the Phillies of an extra base hit in the Paola Cal Ripken Major Division
