Branstad to kick off sixth term with limited goals DES MOINES (AP) — Gov.

Terry Branstad is kicking off his sixth term with a limited list of goals, most notably increasing roads fund-ing, but so far without any major leg-acy project on the horizon.

Branstad will give the annual con-dition of the state address Tuesday, laying out his policy and budget pri-orities. He is expected to renew sup-port for expanding broadband Inter-net and cracking down on bullying, as well as offering a pledge to secure more funding for Iowa’s bridges and roads, many of which are considered deteriorating or deficient.

“Generally speaking, we’re not

looking at any big surprises,” Bran-stad said when asked about his speech. “We came back to restore fiscal stability and get the state budget in order and focus on jobs and economic de-velopment and education reform and we want to stay on that track.”

This is different than four years ago when the Republican Branstad had just been elected to a fifth term after time away from office.

He ran then with an ambitious plan to create jobs and reform gov-ernment.

“I think you’ll have a session here where anything goes,” said long-time Branstad adviser Doug Gross, who noted that Branstad appears to be cautiously approaching road funding and a potential increase in the state fuel tax. “The governor is a very adept politician. He may be making a calculation that the real goal is to get road funding done. He’s going to try to low-key it rath-er than up-key it. This is a situation that’s very volatile.”

Tyler Olson, who briefly ran for

the 2014 Democratic nomination for governor before dropping out for personal reasons, said he’d like to hear a bigger vision from Branstad.

“The job market is changing. Economic development is changing. How we educate our kids should be changing. I would love to one, hear some acknowledgment of that and two, how the state is going to respond to that,” said Olson, a for-mer legislator and Democratic Party chairman.

Road funding may require a big push from Branstad this year. He has been careful not to publicly commit to a course of action, though

one option is to raise the state’s fuel tax, currently at 22 cents a gallon, including fees. That has not been raised since 1989.

Branstad has said the agenda he laid out in 2010 was always meant to take five years, so he’s still working to meet those targets.

When Branstad ran in 2010 he was attempting a political comeback against an incumbent Democrat and pledged to create 200,000 new jobs, increase family incomes and reduce the cost of government.

Hunters harvest more than 97,000 deer in 2014-15 season

By JAKE WADDINGHAMCNA associate [email protected]

Iowa’s deer hunting season came to a close over the weekend with the conclu-sion of the late muzzleloader season and late archery split Jan. 10.

More than 97,143 deer were harvested statewide, according to the Iowa Depart-ment of Resources most current num-bers. Union County reported about 1,020 deer harvested and was almost evenly split between bucks and does.

“Overall, our season went well,” said Corey Carlton, game warden for Union

and Ringgold counties.Ringgold County reported similar har-

vest totals.One of the biggest changes for Iowa

deer hunters was the discontinuation of January’s antlerless season, forcing hunt-ers to target does more frequently during the regular shotgun season.

“The reason (January antlerless) was abolished was because we have gotten our population numbers down to target level,” Carlton said.

Carlton said shotgun season remained Iowa’s most popular season for hunting deer, but there was a big jump in hunters trying late muzzleloader.

The weather during shotgun season was varied. While the temperatures co-operated most days, the lack of snowfall made tracking deer movements difficult.

Hunters battled high winds and low temperatures to end the 2014-15 hunting season, which Carlton said led to bigger problems than poor hunting conditions.

“No one wants to get out of the truck,” Carlton said. “That brings in several

problems. Guys are shooting out of the truck or from the road, shooting onto a property without knowing who could be out there.”

Since 2011, SF 2379 allows hunters in Iowa to travel with a loaded handgun, rifle or shotgun in a motorized vehicle. This does not apply to snowmobiles and all-terrain vehicles.

Carlton said a large majority of hunt-ers do travel with loaded firearms, mak-ing the temptation to fire from illegal ar-eas much greater.Water fowl

One of the biggest highlights from the 2014-15 hunting season was the strong showing of geese and ducks.

“This has probably been the best year for water fowl since I have been here,” Carlton said. “New birds were coming in before the weekend, which is when a lot of our hunters are able to get out and

Officials monitor flu outbreaks at Iowa care centers

DES MOINES (AP) — At least 32 care centers in Iowa have had outbreaks of influenza recently, according to health officials who say it’s difficult to fight off the dis-ease despite such safeguards as vaccination and sanitation measures.

Dr. Patricia Quinlisk, med-ical director for the Iowa De-partment of Public Health, said she’s received daily reports of the disease affect-ing nursing homes, assisted living centers and other care facilities, The Des Moines Register reported.

“It’s certainly much higher than it’s been in the past,” she said of the frequency of the reports.

At the Bishop Drumm Re-tirement Center in Johnston, every resident and employee was vaccinated against the flu. But the virus spread at the center in December. Sev-eral residents required hospi-talization.

“It was awful for them here,” said Priscilla Myers of Johnston, whose mother, Rosemary Hall, was one of about 35 residents infected. “It seemed like they all got the flu at once.”

Quinlisk, the state’s top

infectious disease expert, said the flu contributes to hundreds of deaths of older people in Iowa during a typ-ical year. The state depart-ment said 64 percent of Iowa residents hospitalized for flu complications this winter have been 65 or older.

Mischelle Denison’s moth-er-in-law, 87-year-old Dar-lene Denison, was moved to Bishop Drumm last year. Mischelle Denison said she is concerned about illnesses such as the flu because care facilities have people with weak immune systems in close proximity.

Darlene Denison herself became infected with the flu. The development meant family members had to put on medical gowns, masks and gloves when visiting her.

“But she took it all in stride,” Mischelle Denison said.

Quinlisk said she won’t have a solid number of deaths related to the flu un-til death certificates are ana-lyzed. But she said that will still make it tricky to track, since the flu isn’t always list-ed as a contributing cause of death for an older person with other health ailments.

hunt.”Iowa DNR Biologist Chad

Paup tracks the number of water fowl that travel through the area from September through January. He said the Union County area held good n u m b e r s for geese and a wide variety of ducks.

“We had an unsea-s o n a b l e cold No-v e m b e r , which helped bring some of the birds down earlier in the season,” Paup said.

The colder weather froze some lakes earlier in the sea-son, concentrating the migra-tion.

At the height of the sea-son, Paup said duck hunters were able to target mallards and red heads to ring-necked

ducks and blue bills.“Guys were able to bring

home a mixed bag of water fowl,” Paup said.Pheasant hunting

With population numbers on the rise, Carlton said he saw more pheasant hunters this season than in recent memory.

“It was nice to see guys out for a change,” Carlton said. “People are still protective of the pheasants and quails.”

Carlton is hopeful the win-ter weather stays mild to al-low the birds the best chance for another year of population growth.

Pheasants and quails strug-gle to find food when heavy, wet snow is followed by frigid temperatures. Moisture and freezing temperatures can also block the bird’s nasal pas-sages.

“Less snow always helps so the birds don’t have to dig as far (for food),” Carlton said.

Branstad said he is deliv-ering on those goals, though the details are complicated. On employment, Branstad counts the number of jobs added during his tenure, but not the jobs lost.

By his count, the state has added over 160,000 jobs since January 2011, but the net gain in jobs has been about 82,500, according to data from Iowa Workforce

Development.Government spending has

increased since Branstad took office, but his aides said that expenses have been held down compared to the previ-ously projected costs.

And on family income, Branstad’s staff cites federal data that shows a jump in the overall personal income in the state, though Census data shows little change in the median household income in Iowa in recent years.

Dear Readers: Here is this week’s SOUND ON, about easy-open packaging:

“I love companies that think about their customers and make their packaging eas-ier to open. For example, there is a frozen-pizza company that, instead of shrink-wrapping the pizzas, uses a peel-open plastic wrapping. I don’t have to get out a knife or scissors just to open it!” — A Happy Reader in Texas

Yay for the good guys! I’m with you about some “impos-sible-to-get-open” packaging. I know it’s for our safety, but for heaven’s sake, I sometimes need a hacksaw! — Heloise

Sound Off about people speaking too fast on answer-ing machines. Here’s an easy fix: When you record your outgoing message, ask the caller to please speak clear-ly and slowly.

INK REMOVALDear Heloise: I made a

doll, and I’m trying to get rid of the blue-ink guidelines. I have tried alcohol and stain spray, but nothing works. I really don’t want to give the dolls to the girls with the blue ink showing. — Rosey R., via email

Well, you did not say what type of doll, so I’m guessing it’s a fabric one. You’ve tried the products I usually sug-gest. But (again, guessing) if the “blue ink guidelines” are on the pattern, or you have

drawn them on with an ink pen, I don’t really know of a way to remove them once the doll is sewn and put together. For general stain removal, you should work from the BACK of the fabric, not the front. If you spray or apply a stain re-mover just to the material, it will usually spread the stain.

You can try dry-cleaning solvent or spot remover that is sold in the cleaning aisle or at shoe stores. Do follow di-rections, and use only a little of the liquid. Last-ditch hint: Try to find a matching color of typewriter correction fluid to cover over the ink marks. Readers, want to help Rosey and Heloise? Send your hint to Heloise/Doll, P.O. Box 795000, San Antonio, TX 78279-5000, or email it to Heloise(at)Heloise.com and please put in the subject line “Doll/Ink.” — Heloise

GIFT-CARD BALANCEDear Heloise: I place a

small sticker on my gift cards indicating how much is on them. If I use part of one, I up-date the amount to show what is left on the card. This way, I don’t have to remember how much the card started with or has left on it. — Janice H., via email

NatioNalDigest

The Numbers Game

Broncos fallDENVER (AP) —

Andrew Luck has his signature NFL win, and it came against his prede-cessor, of all people.

Hardly pressured all afternoon, Luck threw two touchdown passes and outplayed Peyton Manning in leading the Indianapolis Colts past the Denver Broncos 24-13 Sunday.

The Colts (13-5) ad-vanced to the AFC championship game at New England (13-4), where they lost 42-20 on Nov. 16.

“I’d like to think I am a better quarterback and would like to think we’re a better team” now, Luck said. “We are well equipped to handle the unknown, the unfore-seen.”

They sure were Sun-day night in the Rockies, where Denver had gone 8-0 this season and aver-aged 35 points a game.

The Broncos (12-5) are left to deal with the hang-over of yet another play-off debacle - and, more importantly, questions about Manning’s future.

After saying on Christ-mas Eve that he planned on coming back for an 18th season, the five-time MVP wasn’t so certain after his latest playoff fi-asco.

Asked point blank if he planned on playing next season, Manning said, “Uh, yeah, I guess I just can’t give that simple answer, I’m processing it. So, I can’t say that. I could not say that.”Packers win

GREEN BAY, Wis. (AP) — Hobbled but happy, Aaron Rodg-ers might have felt a bit lucky, too.

No matter: The All-Pro quarterback and his Green Bay Packers are one step away from the Super Bowl.

More stationary than usual because of a left calf injury, Rodgers ral-lied the Packers from an 8-point deficit with two second-half touchdowns passes to beat Dallas 26-21 Sunday.

The Packers (13-4), helped immensely by a video reversal with 4:06 remaining, went unde-feated at Lambeau Field this season. They head to Seattle next weekend for the NFC title game.

The Seahawks (13-4) beat Green Bay in the season opener, 36-16.

Green Bay might not have had any time left in its season if not for ref-eree Gene Steratore’s decision. Dez Bryant’s leaping, bobbling 31-yard catch at the Pack-ers 1 on a fourth-and-2 play was challenged by Green Bay coach Mike McCarthy. Instead of first-and-goal for Dal-las (13-5), the ball went over to the Packers.Duke loses

RALEIGH, N.C. (AP) — Trevor Lacey scored 21 points and N.C. State shot 55 per-cent to beat Duke 87-75 on Sunday, knocking off one of the last three undefeated teams in the country.

Wolverines hold off hot-shooting ClarkeBy SCOTT VICKERCNA sports editor • [email protected]

GREENFIELD — Nodaway Valley survived a barrage of 3-pointers from Clarke here Saturday to post a 68-56 victory.

In the process, NV head coach Darrell Burmeister improved to 2-0 against his former all-state center James Larson, current Clarke head coach.

After Nodaway Valley went on a 15-0 run to take a 15-2 lead over the visiting In-dians, it was bombs away fro Clarke.

The sharpshooting guard duo of sophomore Troy Morgan and senior Carlos Tamayo started knocking down shots for Clarke, and suddenly it was a ballgame.

Morgan got things going with a stepback 3-pointer and then knocked down another. Tamayo buried a

3-pointer from the corner on an inbounds play, forcing Burmeister to call his third timeout, less than six minutes into the game.

Coming out of the time-out, Morgan dished to Ta-mayo for another 3-pointer to make the score 15-14. Jackson Lamb made two free throws, but Brandyne Olin answered with another 3-pointer for Clarke to tie the game at 17-17.

Nathan Andrews sank b a c k -t o - b a c k 3 - p o i n t -ers, in-c l u d i n g a buzz-e r - b e a t -er to put Nodaway Valley up 23-17 af-ter one quarter.

Trailing 25-17 early in the second quarter, Clarke went on another 3-point barrage.

Tamayo hit one from the top of the key and then Mor-gan buried a 3-pointer while drawing a foul, hitting the free throw. Morgan knocked down two more 3-pointers to give Clarke a 30-27 lead midway through the second quarter.

“We didn’t have a lot of preparation coming into this because we concentrate one game at a time,” Burmeister said. “The preparation we did have, we started out tri-angle-and-two on their two shooters. We had Jackson at the top of the triangle and he was going to keep an eye on 25 (Olin).

“We had a man on Mor-gan and a man on Tamayo, and it didn’t seem like it made much difference. They were in the zone tonight and they moved the ball. They were knocking them down.”

CNA photo by SCOTT VICKERNodaway Valley junior guard Jackson Lamb looks for a teammate to pass to after driving by Clarke’s Troy Morgan during Saturday’s 68-56 win. Lamb scored 23 points for the Wolverines, while Morgan made seven 3-pointers and scored 25 points.

Panther boys split weekend games

By SCOTT VICKERCNA sports editor • [email protected]

The Class 3A sev-enth-ranked Creston boys basketball team split its weekend games, moving its season mark to 8-2 overall.

The Panthers dug them-selves a big hole in Friday’s non-conference matchup at Council Bluffs Abraham Lincoln before battling back in the second half. Creston eventually lost 63-55 to the Lynx.

The Panthers rebounded in a big way Saturday, how-ever, decimating Red Oak by a 77-33 score.

In Friday’s loss, senior all-

stater Jay Wolfe picked up two early fouls that made life difficult for the Panthers.

The Lynx built a 34-19 lead by halftime and even-tually stretched that lead to 19 points early in the third quarter.

“It was really a tale of two halves,” Creston head coach Brett Watson said. “First half, we just didn’t play up to our potential. Really hurt at the beginning when Jay got two fouls. Limited our game plan and limited his aggres-siveness. Second half, we came out with more intensi-ty, more aggressiveness.”

Walker leads Tigers over Creston girls

By LARRY PETERSONCNA sports writer • [email protected]

RED OAK — Division I recruit Kate Walker had 24 points and a game-high 11 rebounds to lead Class 3A seventh-ranked Red Oak girls over Creston Saturday, 56-48.

Walker, who will play at Bucknell next year as a 6-foot guard, made 12 of 14 free throw attempts as the Tigers finished 18-25 overall at the line.

“We kind of did a dia-mond-and-one on her with Taylor Briley and Maria Mostek on Walker,” Cres-ton coach Brent Douma said. “For three quarters we did a pretty good job. Then in the fourth quarter we went to man-to-man. Defen-sively we played pretty well, outside of giving up offen-sive rebounds a few times. We just went through stages where we didn’t knock down

shots. We have to get back to shooting the ball like we did before Christmas.”

Guard Madison Gilbert scored 12 points for the Ti-gers and 6-2 center Grace Blomstedt added 11.

Red Oak improved to 10-1 overall and 4-1 in Hawkeye 10 Conference play. Cres-ton fell to 6-4 and 3-3 in the league.

Hulett’s comeback highlights Panther championshipSix Creston/O-M wrestlers win titles

By LARRY PETERSONCNA sports writer • [email protected]

Class 3A fourth-ranked Cole Baker had a 6-1 lead early in the second period.

But Class 2A 10th-ranked sophomore Kadon Hulett had the daily regimen of the Creston/Orient-Macksburg wrestling room in his corner.

That extra burst of ener-gy came in handy as Hulett circled on top of Baker sev-eral times before breaking Baker’s grasp on his leg, securing the winning take-down with four seconds left in an 8-7 victory for the 220-pound championship of the Panther Invitational here Saturday.

Hulett was one of six Pan-ther individual champions, who led the way for another

team trophy in their home event with 255 points. Dal-las Center-Grimes was a distance second with 150.5. Other Creston/O-M champs were Spencer Wray (152), Chase Shiltz (160), Tayler Pettit (170), Jackson Mik-kelsen (182) and Seth Mai-tlen (195).

Taking second in the six-man round robin compe-tition in each weight class were Jacob Goodson (113), Brody Frain (126), Mitchel Swank (132), Wyatt Thomp-son (138), Joey Huntington (145) and heavyweight Jake Gutschenritter, who became the only wrestler to go a full six minutes with Class 1A second-ranked Joe Ricker of Mount Ayr this year in a 9-3 defeat.

Ricker became Mount Ayr’s all-time winningest

wrestler Saturday, breaking Erik Freed’s mark of 143

early in the day. He now has 147 victories and should surpass the 150 mark in this weekend’s Ron Scott Duals.

But it was Hulett’s in-spiring comeback in the fi-nal seconds that ignited the famed “Panther Roar” in the CHS gym in the battle of rated 220-pounders near the end of the tournament.

Baker, a pro baseball prospect and University of Iowa recruit in that sport, scored a reversal to get ahead 6-1 early in the sec-ond period, seemingly on his way to the 220-pound title.

But Hulett scored his own reversal to close it to 6-3, starting a wave of momen-tum. He escaped to start the third period, making it 6-4. When he had a cut above his eye, coach Darrell Frain rushed to wipe it clean and continue wrestling, because he saw his wrestler was win-

ning the battle of fatigue.“Cole Baker is a good

wrestler,” Frain said. “I knew it would be tough to score on him, but I knew the momentum was going our way and he (Baker) was starting to struggle. At that point I felt we could push the pace enough that we would have a chance. If it’s a close match late, I’d like the chances of anyone in our room.”

Hulett took down the tir-ing Baker with 46 seconds left to tie it at 6-6. In a gam-ble that he could get anoth-er one, he released the Mus-tang wrestler for a one-point escape.

Then, he got halfway through another takedown shot, but Baker held off Hulett’s attempt to clear his

NV smothers Lady Indians By SCOTT VICKERCNA sports editor • [email protected]

GREENFIELD — Nodaway Valley’s hot shooting and press defense never allowed a young Clarke team to get into the flow of the basketball game here Saturday, as the Wolverines breezed past

the Lady Indians, 68-13.Nodaway Valley led 25-0

after the first quarter and started the game on a 29-0 run, putting the game away before the Lady Indians ever got on the scoreboard.

Sophomore post player Paige McElfish scored 13 points in the first quarter and 25 points by halftime, as she finished the game

with 29 points on 14-of-17 shooting to lead all scorers.

“Paige needed that breakout game,” Nodaway Valley head coach Tom Thompson said. “She’s been struggling a little bit offensively, so I’m glad to see her get off and get some makes. I don’t know what she shot, but she made all the shots she missed last night. It’s really good to see her get going.”

McElfish scored 11 of the first 13 points in the game, most of which either came on offensive rebound putbacks or shots from the block.

Her dominance inside early opened things up to allow the Wolverines to get open looks from out-side.

Jessica Nelson hit three 3-pointers and Josie Carter made two. Josie Clarke and Hollie Perrin each knocked down one 3-pointer.

“I always preach to them when the three isn’t falling to get a layup and work their way back out to that 3-pointer, and that’s what we did tonight,” Thompson said. “We ran the floor, got some layups and then the threes started going in.”

Nodaway Valley led 45-5 at halftime and after Haley Gilbert started the second half with a basket for Clarke, the Wolverines went on a 19-0 run.

The 35-point running clock mercy rule was in ef-fect the entire second half.

For the game, Nodaway Valley shot 68.2 percent from the floor. After a cold-shooting night in Fri-day’s 57-42 win over Pleas-antville, Thompson said he was glad to see his team shoot the way it did on Sat-

urday.“The girls were real-

ly discouraged after the game last night, because they know they’re better than that,” he said. “They did bounce back. I wasn’t sure what I had her today when they came, because they were kind of moping around and I wasn’t sure how they were going to be. But they came out loose and once it goes in like that, the rim gets a lot big-ger.”

Nelson added 15 points for the W o l -v e r i n e s , w h i l e C a r t e r scored 10 p o i n t s . P e r r i n f i n i s h e d with sev-en. Carter finished the game with eight assists and seven steals.

The Wolverines, now 8-1 for the season host Bed-ford on Tuesday, before traveling to Interstate 35 on Thursday and Panora-ma on Saturday.

Balanced scoring carried the Creston freshmen to a 41-37 victory over Red Oak Saturday.

Taylor Fredrickson scored 11 points while Chloe Hagle, Bre Wallace and Cayla Maitlen each tallied 10.

“It was really fun to see our girls have success on both ends of the court,” Creston coach Anthony Donahoo said. “We started running the ball through our posts, which got every-one involved.”

leg through as they circled several times, with the clock winding down under 10 sec-onds.

“The fact that he got the ankle made me feel good that we’d eventually get the takedown,” Frain said. “My fear was they would go out of bounds and get a fresh start. We were right on the edge.”

Hulett said he could feel he was more energized that his opponent, and just had to finish the move.

“It felt like I was circling forever,” Hulett said. “I felt my leg strength would be better than his arm strength, so I kept going. He was so tired, eventually it was going to break sometime.”

Frain said there is a count-er move that might have worked earlier, especially against a tiring wrestler un-likely to react to the quick shift, but he was proud of his wrestler’s fight to the finish.

“That’s a really good win for Kadon,” Frain said.

285 clashAnd, although Gutschen-

ritter did not beat Mount Ayr’s second-ranked heavy-weight, he trailed only 4-3 late in the second period against Ricker, who was coming off a bout of mono-nucleosis over the holiday break. Frain said that was a statement match for his se-nior heavyweight.

“We knew we could go with him,” Frain said. “Jake is right there. He had one bad day down at Leon. Oth-erwise, he’d be rated. He’s beaten some good kids. He’s in a little better shape than what people think, and a little more athletic than what people think.”

Ricker, who picked up pins in his three other wins Saturday, said he benefit-ed from being pushed by Gutschenritter.

“I needed a six-minute match,” Ricker said, “just to see where I’m at with conditioning. After it, I can tell I need to keep getting in more condition. I better

start coming in the morn-ings, and get it back like last year. Props to him. He made me better, by all means.”

Ricker said he was glad to get the school record for victories, and now has his sights set on 175 wins before the season is over. He is also closing in on the career pins record.

Other area champions were Matthew Wittstock of East Union at 126 pounds over Creston/O-M’s Bro-dy Frain; and the unbeaten Bedford/Lenox duo of Jared Hensley (120 pounds) and Dusten Reed (132 pounds).

Creston/O-M’s Mitch-el Swank took second be-hind Reed after defeating once-beaten Abe Yoder of Greene County by fall in 2:17. Reed then pinned Swank in 49 seconds and topped Yoder 7-3.

Hensley improved to 17-0 by cruising through the 120 division with three pins and a 16-0 technical fall over Creston/O-M’s Trevor Mar-lin, who placed third.

At 126, Wittstock scored a 5-2 decision over Frain after Frain had edged Josh Mitch-ell of Bedford/Lenox 4-2 and shut out Drew Kearney of Dallas Center-Grimes, 5-0. Wittstock beat Mitchell 7-2 and Kearney 5-1.Other champs

Wray picked up Creston/O-M’s first championship, wrestling at 152 pounds one last time before he and several other Panther middleweights drop weight classes this week.

Wray took a 4-1 lead before pinning Nick Brushaber of Dallas Cen-ter-Grimes in 5:08. Wray is

8-0 since becoming eligible after the holiday break.

“He weighed in at 145 and said he’d go up one more time for the team,” Frain said. “He stayed with low singles and used his quickness.”

Shiltz, last year’s 145-pound state runner-up, has had only seven match-es since returning from knee surgery at the end of the football season. He wasn’t challenged in the 160 weight class with three pins and a 19-4 technical fall.

“It still could be a little while before he really gets challenged,” Frain said. “Right now we’re just get-ting him in shape.”

East Union’s Bro-gan Kinyon was the only 170-pound wrestler to not get pinned by Creston/O-M’s Pettit. That match ended in a 16-0 technical

fall at the 3:35 mark.“He just went out and

did what he does, very sol-id,” Frain said.

Mikkelsen downed Seth Willets of Bedford/Le-nox 2-0 in a defensive title match, gaining a takedown in the second period.

“Good for him,” Frain said. “When I saw the bracket I thought he had a shot to win. He’s one of those guys who seem to be in every match.”

Maitlen had two pins and decisions of 8-1 and 9-3, the latter over East Union’s Mike Ward, in cruising to the 195 title. Still, Frain thought it wasn’t his best wrestling of the season.

“He was a little off early on, and then looked better in the finals,” Frain said. “I think his knee still hurts. We’ll have to talk to (train-er) Chris Leonard and see if it means maybe holding

him out right now, or not. He’ll get where he needs to be when the time comes.”

Coaches Gail Chris-tensen of Bedford/Le-nox, Steve Kinyon of East Union and Kurt Wallace of Mount Ayr all felt their squads had some highlights and gained valuable expe-rience.

“It’s awesome to come here and you know it’s guaranteed that your kid will get that many match-es,” Wallace said of the round-robin format. “We have some inexperience, so mat time is important for us. Also, it’s important that our kids get to wrestle different people. Here, you see some different teams.”

Creston/O-M’s next ac-tion is Thursday at Wint-erset against the Huskies and Perry, before traveling to the Centerville tourna-ment on Saturday.

Revolutionizing Agriculture Through Information & Technology



Down 40-21 with 6:40 left in the third quarter, the Pan-thers began chipping away at the lead. Creston went on a 20-7 run, highlighted by two Christian Groumoutis 3-pointers with one each by Wolfe and McClain Haines to pull to within 47-41 early in the fourth quarter.

After another Groumou-tis 3-pointer, Alex Nielsen’s basket pulled the Panthers to within 53-49 with 3:24 left in the game.

But Abraham Lincoln sank 11 of 12 fourth-quarter free throws to hold off the Pan-thers, sealing the 63-55 win.

“I’ve been saying this all year, these kids have so much heart and character,” Watson said. “We were in a situation at AL against a very good team, down 10 at half. We could have easily folded. But they kept fighting and had a chance to win it. They’re fun to coach when you have a lot of players like that.”

Nielsen led the Panthers with 18 p o i n t s , w h i l e W o l f e added 16. Groumou-tis dropped in 11 points, as his big 3-pointers helped the Panthers get back in the game.Hot shooting

The Panthers righted the ship in a hurry with a blow-out victory over Hawkeye 10 Conference foe Red Oak, 77-

33.Creston built a 21-7 lead

after one quarter and led 44-16 at halftime, after Watson challenged his team to up the defensive intensity for the matchup.

“I put a challenge out there to pick up our intensity,” he said. “The fellas really did that. Gave up 16 points in the first half. Just took them out of everything they wanted to do. Their shooters never got an open look. Our offense got some easy buckets and things in transition. We kind of fed off our defense.”

Creston shot 71.8 percent for the game and missed just three shots inside the 3-point arc for the game.

Wolfe didn’t miss a shot from anywhere on the floor, scoring a game-high 26 points on 10-of-10 shoot-ing from the floor and 4-4 from the free throw line. He knocked down two 3-point-ers.

In addition, Wolfe grabbed five rebounds and dished out four assists.

Haines and Groumou-tis facilitated the offense, as each finished with six assists. Haines scored nine points and grabbed five boards. Nielsen scored 14 points with five re-bounds and three assists. Coo-per McDermott added seven points.

“As a coach, you’ll take that every day,” Watson said. “That shows what kind of

shots we were getting. A lot of shots around the paint. They didn’t have an answer for Alex and Jay. We only hit five threes. We did a very good job of attacking the basket.”

The game did not count in the Hawkeye 10 Conference standings. Creston remains 8-2 overall and 4-0 in Hawk-eye 10 Conference play, entering a big week for the Hawkeye 10 standings.

The Panthers are off un-til Friday when they travel to Class 3A No. 10 Deni-son-Schleswig for a matchup between the top two teams in the conference standings. Denison-Schleswig enters the week with an 8-2, 4-1 mark.

“It’s the only time we play them in the regular season,” Watson said. “They’re playing good basketball. Also big for the conference part, too. If we beat them, we’ll have a two-game lead in the conference over all teams. Not playing Tuesday will give us a chance to go up and watch them in person. We’ll be preparing for them all week long.”

Momentum changeAfter the ninth 3-pointer

of the half for Clarke put the Indians up 30-27 , Nodaway Valley seized control with a 9-0 run going into halftime that gave the Wolverines a 36-30 lead.

Tanner Armstrong scored four of his 14 points in the spurt, while Andrews had a traditional 3-point play. Lamb scored a basket on a drive.

The Wolverine lead grew to 44-33 in the second half on an Andrews 3-pointer, but Clarke eventually cut it to 49-43 at the start of the fourth quarter on an Olin layup.

Lamb sank 3 of 4 free free throws after a pair of Clarke technicals to make it a 57-45 lead, however. Clarke put together one last run at it, cutting the lead to 58-51 on a Gabe Crawford offensive re-bound and putback.

But Nodaway Valley’s free throw shooting was too good down the stretch, as the Wol-verines pulled away for the

68-56 win.Lamb shot 7-8 from the line

in the final quarter, while Da-vid Schweitzer shot 3-4 from the free throw line and hit a 3-pointer.

Lamb led the Wolverines with 23 points, while three others reached double figures. Armstrong and Andrews each recorded 14 points, while Nate Venteicher scored 11. Andrews recorded a dou-ble-double with 15 rebounds. Lamb dished seven assists and had three steals.

“To our credit, we didn’t play our best game and we still won by 12,” Burmeister said. “Free throw shooting was a little bit better tonight. Forced a little bit on offense sometimes tonight. At the same time, there were a few times I felt we moved the ball really well. Tanner Arm-strong got his best touches of the year tonight.”

Surviving 12 3-pointers from Clarke was no easy task, Burmeister said.

“I think that’s probably a record against Nodaway Val-ley (for made 3-pointers),” he said. “That’s 36 points out of their 56. You look at their

statistics, almost half of their shots are 3-pointers. Hats off to them. We didn’t have too bad of coverage on some of those shots and they were still going in.”

For Larson, returning to the Nodaway Valley gym was an emotional night.

“Brings back a lot of old memories,” he said. “I think my emotions got the best of me because we were here, it was NV and then I got that technical. I think because it was here, it brought back a lot of emotions, a lot of memo-ries. It was fun.”

Clarke dropped to 1-8 for the season, while Class 1A eighth-ranked Nodaway Valley improved to 9-0. The Wolverines host Bedford on

Tuesday, before traveling to Interstate 35 on Thursday and Panorama on Saturday.

CLARKE (56) — Troy Morgan 8 2-2 25, Carlos Tamayo 5 3-4 17, Gabe Crawford 3 0-1 6, Brandyne Olin 2 0-1 5, Grant Wishon 1 1-2 3. Totals — 19 6-10 56. 3-point goals — 12 (Morgan 7, Tamayo 4, Olin 1). Team fouls — 21. Fouled out — Wishon.

Despite China’s refusal to approve Syngenta’s GMO seed, Syngenta continued to sell its seed to U.S. corn farmers. When China banned U.S. corn imports, the price of corn fell dramatically, and corn farmers across the country lost BILLIONS of dollars.

Our team represented over 2000 individual farmers in the Rice GMO claim. We opposed the class action and secured more for the farmers we represented. Our group of lawyers will continue meeting with farmers with respect to each farmer’s individual Syngenta claim.

Expanding Highway 34 discussion of upcoming SWICO annual meeting

RED OAK — Southwest Iowa Coalition (SWICO) will hold its annual meeting 6 p.m. Jan. 15 at the Red Coach Inn and Restaurant, 1200 Senate Ave., Red Oak.

Troy Jerman, PE, dis-trict engineer, Department of Transportation, will be joined by Larry Winum, president, Glenwood State Bank and SWICO In-frastructure Committee, co-chairman.

They will lead a discus-sion about the steps to take in preparation for the ex-pansion of US 34.

Members see a huge ben-efit to residents and com-mercial trade by expanding US 34 to four lanes from highway 275 in Mills Coun-ty to the I-35 interchange outside at Osceola. Res-idents and professionals working in the area can decrease their commute times.

Business and industry often require access to four-lane transportation in-frastructure. It is believed that the commercial devel-opment which will occur on the Iowa and Nebraska side of the new highway 34 bridge will inevitably raise the traffic count to justify the expansion of lanes on US 34.

Jerman and Winum will talk through some of the early steps that can

be taken to work with the Department of Transpor-tation’s administration and Commission to insure that this issue continues to be monitored and when the time is right, becomes part of the IDOT’s five-year plan.

“We realize, like the bridge, this is a longer term project that will be driven by increased traffic counts but we want to begin plan-ning for that expansion,” said Winum, who provided the on-going, lead coordi-nation for the bridge proj-ect.

RSVP to SWICO for a head-count for the no-host meal which begins at 6 p.m. RSVP by phone or email to 712-309-2132 or [email protected]. SWICO meet-ings and activities are open to anyone who wishes to participate.

The Coalition is the old-est rural development ad-vocacy organization in the state of Iowa with member-ship throughout 16 coun-ties.

Member counties of the Coalition include: Adair, Adams, Audubon, Clarke, Cass, Decatur, Fremont, Guthrie, Mills, Montgom-ery, Page, Pottawattamie, Ringgold, Shelby, Taylor and Union.

It is a nonprofit and re-lies on modest dues and volunteer support for its advocacy activities. The membership is comprised of concerned individuals, business and industry, non-profits, agencies, chambers, development organiza-tions, city and county gov-ernments. More informa-tion is at www.swico.org.

� The expansion would occur from Mills County to the I-35 inter-change outside Osceola

UI study examines ability of crows to use reasoning IOWA CITY (AP) —

Crows are known for being clever — a reputation that research co-authored by University of Iowa psychol-ogy professor Ed Wasser-man supports.

The study, which Was-serman co-authored along with researchers Anna Smirnova, Zoya Zorina and Tanya Obozova at Moscow State University, suggests that crows can use analogi-cal reasoning without being trained to do so, a skill sci-entists previously thought only humans and apes could master.

According to the study, published Dec. 18 in the journal Current Biology, two hooded crows that re-searchers examined success-fully made analogies, when presented with flashcards, by matching sets of unlike shapes to other sets of un-like shapes and matching sets of similar shapes to oth-er sets of similar shapes.

Researchers tested the crows in three separate be-havioral assessments, the study reads.

Wasserman, 68, who studies animals’ intelli-

gence, told the Iowa City Press-Citizen researchers taught the birds to make easier matches initially, and that the crows made leaps in their thinking when they began making these more complex analogies.

He said the fact that the crows made those leaps is exciting and surprising news in the field of animal intel-ligence, and that a hard-er look at other animals’ thoughts may yield similar surprises for him and his colleagues.

“We’re of the opinion that we haven’t really be-gun to scratch the surface in our understanding of intelli-gence in nature,” he said.

Bob McMurray, a UI as-sociate professor who stud-ies human language devel-opment, said the study is significant in terms of hu-

man psychology because “it puts in perspective where our abilities kind of came from.”

He said the study provides evidence suggesting the processes by which young children learn to speak and think may be more simple than one might assume.

“We may be building on the same kinds of learning processes that animals can do, but achieving something much more sophisticated with them,” he said.

McMurray said he thinks it’s amazing that crows can engage in “pretty deep

learning.”Wasserman, who has also

authored papers on dogs, bonobos, pigeons, chickens and rats, said an under-standing of the crows’ abil-ities may inform humans’ treatment of animals and enhance our ability to ben-efit from animals such as guide dogs.

He said as humans form a better appreciation of an-imals’ intelligence, we may be more apt to treat animals with respect.

Wasserman also said the study brings value in terms of humans’ understanding of the planet and our place in the grand scheme of things. He said rather than looking to outer space for other forms of intelligent life, he’d suggest people look in their own backyards.

“My answer is look on Earth,” he said. “There are plenty of life forms that are intelligent right here.”
