Writing ON THE WALL

By BAILEY POOLMANCNA staff reporter bpoolman@crestonnews.com

Is it write or wrong to teach cursive writing dur-ing school hours?It has become appar-ent that some schools are

phasing out cursive so more technology classes such as keyboarding can be taught.

I think youre going to see some focus on that next year in leg-islature in Iowa, said Rep. Tom Latham, R-Iowa. Its very con-cerning.

Iowa ad-opted Common Core, a cur-riculum standards initiative, in July 2010 and blended it with the states current edu-cation standards to produce Iowa Core. In the standards, handwriting is required to be taught, but cursive writing is never directly mentioned. Ac-cording to Staci Hupp, Iowa Department of Education communications director, that leaves cursive writing deci-sions up to local school dis-tricts.Cursive

Scott Driskell, Creston Ele-mentary School principal, said cursive writing is still taught at Creston Schools, but not to the extent it used to be.

So many people communi-cate through technology that cursive isnt as valued as much in the scheme of where were at, educationally speaking, said Driskell.

Diagonal School District is

an example of where technol-ogy is used daily.

All of our sixth- through 12th-grade (students) have their own computers, said Diagonal Superintendent Karleen Stephens, so all of their assignments are done by computers.

Younger Diagonal students use portable laptops, but Stephens said cursive is still taught at the school dis-trict.

We do both, Ste-phens said. We teach manuscript, which is the traditional p r i n t i n g , and then at the end of sec-ond grade, they learn cursive and practice that through the elementary. And then, (they learn) keyboarding.Gaps

Because technology is so widely used, cursive writing is taught in less depth and is

no longer an expec-tation, ac-cording to D r i s k e l l . H o w e v e r , he also said there needs to be a transition period.

There are gaps. Thats why were hesitant to move completely away from cursive writing, Driskell said. Gen-erationally speaking, that type of writing is going to be less used.

Driskell said he knew of several fourth-grade students who text on cellphones and communicate on the Internet using social networks such as Twitter.

Its one of those catch 22s. You only have so many hours in the day and you have to make educational decisions, said Driskell. And, cursive writing has fallen to the way-side.

Stephens said even though

cursive writing is taught at Di-agonal Schools, she is unsure for how much longer.

Even though we teach it in the elementary, once they get to middle school and high school, they do so much on the computer. And, what they do write by hand, they tend to go back to printing, said Ste-phens. So, we ask ourselves oftentimes, is this the best way to spend our learning time?

Stephens also said she can empathize with struggling school districts making educa-tional decisions based on time in the classroom, as well as the communities surrounding school districts who remain traditional in their education-al views.

Communities feel bad when tried and true things go away, and I understand that. But, for now, its an impor-tant skill. ... If nothing else, I think its good for fine motor (skills).

n Is cursive handwriting on the outs in local schools?

Doris Mae Hood, daugh-ter of Claudie Mae (Cope-land) and Ivan Harry Moore, was born March 5, 1935, in Corning.

Doris graduated from Corning High School in 1953

and moved to Creston short-ly after.

On July 1, 1955, Doris married Charles Keith Hood in Creston.

Doris was part owner and clerk for H & W Sales. She worked alongside Darwin and June West, Tom and Lisa Frey and the late Buck Buxton and was associated with auction sales for more than 50 years. Doris also worked at the sale barn in Creston for Virginia and Howard Meyers.

Doris regularly attended Platte Center Presbyterian Church and belonged to the sorority Alpha Eta Beta Sig-ma Thi.

Doris is survived by her son Gail (Jan) Hood of Win-terset; grandson Phil (Melin-da) Hood of Atlantic; foster grandson Ryan Capps of In-dianola; sister-in-law Wanda Moore of Creston; several nieces, nephews and other relatives.

Doris was preceded in death by her parents; hus-band July 17, 1995; brother Bernard Moore; sister La-vetta Burkhalter; and broth-er-in-law Arnold Burkhalter.

Reva Green Des Moines

Reva Kay Green, of Des M o i n e s , came to rest, at home, on A u g u s t 30, 2013.

S h e was born in Crom-well, IA to the late Fred and Ardis Vicker on October 5th.

Reva graduated from Creston High School and went on to graduate col-lege at the American Insti-tute of Business.

She moved to Clear-water, FL in 1980, mar-ried Robert Green, and made her way back to Des Moines years later.

Reva was a proud Flori-da Gator and Iowa Hawk-eye fan. She was an ex-tremely hard worker. She lived her life through her grandkids and prided her-

self in being a part of their everyday lives. Reva would constantly make jokes, pull pranks, and loved to have fun. She was a patient, self-less, devoted, irreplaceable woman whose memory will be cherished forever and always.

She is survived by her daughter, Revell (Lonnie) Green, of Des Moines; brother: Lyle (Nancy) Vicker, of Essex; and three grandchildren, Deon, Devai, and Derance, of Des Moines.

PhoneticsPhonetics, the study of

speech sounds, is com-parable to cursive writ-ing in that, according to Hupp, Iowa Core requires schools to teach students different phonetic skills,

but is not specific on how schools should teach those skills.

You have to have good understandings as to what methods work and are effective, and we use re-search based strategies, Driskell said. Theres a right way and a wrong way to teach a lot of things and

you might as well use your time teaching methods you know work.

Phonetics focuses on younger students who are still learning the basics of general education classes such as language arts.

Generally, when they get past second or third grade, they dont need

as much phonics, Hupp said.

Stephens said teachers in Diagonal still use pho-netic skills in reading.

We have never, ever walked away from pho-nics, said Stephens. We think kids have to have a command of phonetic awareness.

If you have to be outside, drink plenty of water, take frequent breaks and wear light, loose-fitting clothing. Relief from high tempera-tures may come as ear-ly as Wednesday with a 30 percent chance of storms. Cooler temper-atures are predicted for Thursday with a high of 81 degrees.

There is an elevated

risk for fire this afternoon. Current drought condi-tions, low humidity levels and wind gusts up to 20 mph could lead to quick fire growth if a fire is sparked.Schools closing

Dear Readers: Here is this weeks SOUND OFF, about paper-towel dispensers in public restrooms:

Ive noticed an unfortu-nate trend in public restrooms (even ones in establishments that serve food): They are re-placing paper-towel dispens-ers with electric air blowers instead.

Whether they are doing this to go green or simply to save money, the problem is that some of us like to use pa-per towels to avoid touching either the faucet handles or the doorknob on the way out, for obvious reasons.

Short of bringing my own supply of napkins or paper towels with me to these rest-rooms, any hints? George P., Norristown, Pa.

Hmmm the air blower does cut down on paper costs and cleanup for the establish-ment. If you dont want to touch anything, take some toi-let paper and use it to touch the surfaces you dont want to touch. Heloise

FAST FACTSDear Readers: Here are

some other uses for envelopes that you get in the mail:

Write a grocery list on one and put coupons inside.

Keep by the phone to take messages.

Use to file receipts ac-cording to category (medical, gas, etc.).

Keep a file of decorating ideas, paint swatches, etc., by room.

HeloiseCLEANING PEARLSDear Heloise: Can you tell

me the best way to clean my pearls? I have noticed that they have changed color a little is this normal? Can I do anything about it? A Reader, via email

To clean pearls, use a soft cloth dipped in a soapy water mixture (a drop of hair sham-poo to a cup of water). Gen-tly clean each pearl. Rinse with water and, using anoth-er clean, soft cloth, dry the pearls. Pearls can naturally change color over time. Once this happens, you cannot cor-rect it, unfortunately.

To keep pearls looking good longer, experts suggest wiping them down after each wearing to remove any sweat, makeup and dirt. It also is a good idea to store them flat so they do not stretch out.

If your strand of pearls is older or you want to have them restrung to be safe, ask to have the strand be knotted in between each pearl. If the strand breaks, you will lose only one pearl instead of the whole strand. Heloise

Panthers overcome Cardinals, flags in 42-10 win

By LARRY PETERSONCNA sports writer lpeter-son@crestonnews.com

Creston/O-M outscored Clarinda 21-0 in the second half to pull away to a 42-10 victory over Clarinda in a game littered with penalty flags at Panther Field.

There were 22 penalties called in the game 11 on each team with the Pan-thers assessed 93 yards in in-fractions, and 90 against the Cardinals.

Holding and false start penalties negated some sig-nificant Panther gains de-spite a 158 to 115 advantage in total yards and the final minutes of the game were marred by personal fouls and unsportsmanlike conduct infractions. There were no player ejections, which would have affected this weeks action.

Towards the end of the game it did get a little out of hand, said senior c e n t e r Nate Hal-ey. They were talk-ing smack, r i p p i n g helmets off. As a captain, you tell everybody to keep their composure. Dont talk back. Play clean and get out of this game. Refs were threatening to toss guys for the next game.

Creston/O-M coach Brian Morrison grew frustrated with the situation.

Our guys were sticking up for each other, which Im all for, but (conduct pen-alties) are not what were about, Morrison said. I think our kids understand. We dont do that stuff, and we dont promote it.

On the positive side, the Panthers controlled their op-ponent for the second week in a row to enter this weeks district opener against At-lantic with a 2-0 record. An-other solid defensive effort

limited Clarinda to 87 yards rushing on 36 attempts, with the Cardinals going 2-of-4 for 28 yards passing and two interceptions by Jesse Rathe and Alex Nielsen in the Pan-ther secondary.

It was a successful effort against Clarindas uncon-ventional single-wing of-fense, which relies on direct snaps to a spinner back, with crossing motion on nearly every play to create deception.

It was hard at practice to adjust, but it wasnt bad on the field (Friday), said de-fensive end Tayler Pettit. I dont think they were ready for us to adjust in a game like that. We pretty much shut them down.

Defensive end Alex Chapman said the success began with the work of de-fensive tackles Jesse Rathe and Jordan Thompson.

A lot of the times the inside of our line was just stuffing the holes and they were kicking it out, said Chapman, who finished with eight tackles. Rathe and Jordan just did a great job. They basically run the same thing every time. You just have to look for the ball.

Fumble returnPettit returned a fumbled

shotgun snap 33 yards for a Panther defensive touch-down for the games final scoring play with 10:02 re-maining. Linebacker Trevor Frain had 12 total tackles, including two for losses, along with two short-yard-age rushing touchdowns.

Pettit said he simply took advantage of an opportu-nity while storming into the Cardinal backfield as the shotgun snap was being mis-handled.

It was a bad snap and they kind of bob-bled it around, Pettit said. The run-ning back tipped it up and I just grabbed it and started run-ning. I was hoping no one would catch me from be-hind!

Baker rushed for 112 yards in the 42-10 victory. Baker took the handoff from Panther quarterback Brandon Phipps (3).

Murrays Rider having record-breaking yearBy KYLE WILSONCNA assistant managing editor kwilson@crest-onnews.com

MURRAY Murrays Andrew Rider is breaking so many records, frankly, its hard to keep track of them all.

The quick-footed senior could not be stopped Fri-day evening in Murrays dominating 68-7 victory over Ankeny Christian Academy. Rider scored four touchdowns in the contest.

Two came on punt re-

turns for TDs one for 37, another for 39 yards. Those were his eighth and ninth punt returns for TD of his career which moves him into first place all time in Iowa football history (8-player or 11 player).

The big reason hes such a good return man is his vision, Murray head coach Keith Shields said. He has the ability to make a cut, and then re-accelerate as good as

Murray throttles Ankeny Christian with 47-point first quarterBy KYLE WILSONCNA assistant managing editor kwilson@creston-news.com

MURRAY The Mur-ray Mustangs scored seven touchdowns in the opening quarter Friday evening en route to a dominant 68-7 victory over Ankeny Chris-tian Academy at Mustang Field.

We couldnt stop them, said ACA head coach Fred Buell. It was obvious early on we were not going to be able to compete with them physically.

Nothing showed that p h y s i c a l d i s p a r i t y better than a first-q u a r t e r punt block by Mur-rays Seth N e r n e s s . The 6-foot, 4-inch Nerness powered right past the offensive line-man and blocked the punt with his big right hand.

I just used speed and power and went right through (the lineman), Nerness said. I got close enough to jump, and when I did the ball hit my arm and it was just an Easter egg hunt for the ball after that.

Nerness hunted the foot-ball down, scooped it into his arms and sped 23 yards

for the touchdown to give Murray an early 26-0 lead. That was just one of sev-eral big plays in the opening quarter for Murray.

Murrays quick-footed running back and return man Andrew Rider had sev-eral big plays in first quarter, scoring three touchdowns including two on punt re-turns. One return went for 37 yards, the other for 39 yards.

Those were his eighth and

ninth punt returns for TD of his career which moves him into first place all time in Iowa football history (8-player or 11 player). (See related story on Riders re-cord-breaking year)

Murray led 47-0 after the first quarter something Murray head coach Keith Shields was pleased with af-ter the game.

Brandon Carr returned an interception 49 yards for a clinching touch-down, and the Cowboys beat Manning and the Giants for the first time at their fancy $1.2 bil-lion stadium with six takeaways in a 36-31 victory Sunday night. Tony Romo shook off hits to the ribs that knocked him out for the final Dallas play of the first half and threw a pair of touchdown pass-es to Jason Witten.

Manning threw three touchdown passes to Victor Cruz and had New York in position for a comeback victory despite the flurry of mis-takes.

But with the Giants trailing 30-24, Man-nings pass went off the hand of running back DeRel Scott into Carrs arms. The cornerback beat Manning down the sideline with 1:50 left for Dallas second defensive touchdown. Barry Church returned a fumble 27 yards for a touchdown.

Sidney 30, Southwest Valley 26

SIDNEY The South-west Timberwolves con-tinued to execute a strong running performance, but could not recover from an 18-point deficit, falling on the road to the defending district champion Sidney Friday night, 30-26.

It was a game that obvi-ously could have gone either way, Southwest Valley head coach Kent Bass said. We had an opportunity and didnt execute.

Jordan Stuart scampered in from 10 yards out for the first Tim-berwolves t o u c h -down, but the two point con-v e r s i o n failed.

S i d n e y responded with back-to-back scores, 14-6, but Stuart found the endzone again to cut the lead to 14-12 going into the lockerroom.

Turnovers and penalties started to take their toll against the Timberwolves in the second half. Sidney opened with a touchdown drive to increase the lead, 21-12.

Every mistake we made was in our control, Bass said. We have to be more mentally tough to beat good teams in our district.

The Timberwolves accu-mulated 388 yards of total offense and 18 first downs, but eight penalties and three turnovers favored Sidneys balanced offensive attack.

Sidney punched through a field goal at the 5:12 mark in the 3rd quarter and connect-ed on a six yard touchdown pass to create a 30-12 gap.

Southwest Valley Stu-art found Nick Spring for a 15 yard touchdown pass to close out the quarter. The Timberwolves failed on the two-point conversion, trail-ing 30-18.

Tyler Bissell reached the

endzone with 7:23 left in the game and the Timberwolves completed the two-point conversion, 30-26.

Fighting back from 18 points down in the second half was impressive, Bass said. We went toe-to-toe with the defending district champs. Now we have to come through and win in clutch situations.

This Friday the Timber-wolves host Nishnabotna in Corning.

Mount Ayr 42, Bedford 13

BEDFORD Mount Ayr defense shutout the Bedford Bulldogs for three quarters while their offen-sive counterpart built a 42-0 lead, eventually winning 42-13 Friday night.

Head coach Darren Showalter said the offense came out a little stiff, mis-handling snaps and commit-ting penalties.

Mount Ayr had nine fum-bles, but Bedford was only able to come away with two

turnovers in the contest.We had difficulty getting

on track, especially early, Showalter said. We did a nice job defensively from the beginning, we were able to play from on top.

When the Raiders did get rolling, it has a balanced of-fensive attack, rushing for 148 yards and completing eight passes for 101 yards.

Lincoln Martin returned the open-ing kick 85 yards for the Raid-ers, but the PAT s a i l e d wide, 6-0.

J a c o b S o b o t k a connected with Erik Freed on a 25 yard pass for another Raider touchdown at the end of the first quarter, 14-0.

The Raiders ground game added three more touch-downs in the second quar-ter, taking a 35-0 lead into the lockerroom.

A running clock and the Raider offense ran down the clock quickly on the Bulldogs.

Sobotka completed an-other passing touchdown in the third quarter to Martin. Bedford found the endzone twice in the fourth quarter to avoid being shutout, 42-13

Next week the Raiders travel to Clarinda for a non-district matchup. Showalter said the Carindals size and physical play will be a new challenge for the Raiders.

We are going to go up against a pretty good sized line, Showalter said. What they do offensively is unlike anything else we have seen.

Showalter said the focus of the nondistrict game will be to clean up their mistakes and continue to get better as a unit.

Lenox 64,Stanton 30

STANTON Lenox out-scored Stanton 42-8 in the second half to pull away to a 64-30 victory Friday night.

The Tigers rushed for 395 yards, led by Dustyn Rauch with 137 yards and two touchdowns, Dustin Gordon with 113 yards and two TDs, and Hugo Mon-tiel with 91 yards and three scoring carries. Gordon also passed for a touchdown to Caleb Lange.

Stanton quarterback Da-vid Sorensen passed for 133 yards and four touchdowns.

Montiel had 17 total tack-les, Todd S t o a k s had 14 and Ca-leb Lange was in on 13 stops. Lange and S p e n c e r B r o w n each had two quarterback sacks. Rauch recovered a fumble while collecting eight tackles.

Lenox, now 3-0 over-

all and 2-0 in district play, broke away from a 22-22 halftime score with 20 un-answered points in the third quarter.

We didnt play well in the first half, said Lenox coach Allen Dukes. We allowed Stanton to stay in the game by missing assign-ments on both sides of the ball. The second half, we played much better as they turned the ball over on a fumble on the kickoff and we turned it into a score. Of-fensively, the ground game came alive. Defensively we shut them down.

Sidney, coming off a big win over Southwest Valley, plays at Lenox this week in a huge district matchup.

We have to get better with Sidney coming in this week, as they will be very physical and fast, Dukes said.

Griswold 41, Nodaway Valley 20

GRISWOLD After jumping out to an 8-0 lead, Nodaway Valley spotted Griswold 29-straight points, falling 41-20 Friday night on the road.

Zach Brewer broke loose for the 14-yard touchdown run and Nodaway Valley successfully completed the 2pt. con-v e r s i o n for the early lead.

O u r o f f e n s e made big improve-m e n t s , h e a d coach Steve Shantz said. We were balanced with 151 yards passing and 150 running. The line did a nice job and is starting to gel to-gether.

Griswolds rushing attack kept the Wolverines off bal-ance. The Tigers covered 353 yards on 64 attempts during the contest.

The running game also chewed up a majority of the clock, allowing Griswold to regain and build their lead.

The defense is still strug-gling with consistency and we were having trouble reading our keys against a good running team, Shantz said.

Nodaway Valley showed a little life to start the fourth quarter, cutting the lead to a two-possession ballgame on a 9-yard run by Brewer with 10 minutes remaining,

times for 112 yards and a touchdown. Several other significant gains were called back on penalties.Long passing TD

Quarterback Brandon Phipps was 5-of-12 passing for 138 yards, including a 52-yard scoring strike to Bryce Briley for the first touch-down of the second half.

Basically it was play ac-tion, Phipps said. I was faking to Baker. Our coach-es told us at half that their safeties were flying up on run plays, and we just got behind them.I was actually looking to throw the 15-yard out and I saw Briley beat the guy over the top on a post route. Everybody was like, I didnt know you could throw it that far! It felt pret-ty good.

Offensive coordinator Darrell Frain said the Car-dinals defensive scheme played perfectly into a play stretching the field, and with a slight southerly breeze to his back, Phipps let it fly for a streaking Briley in full stride.

We had the outside guy on a go route, and (another) on a 15-yard out, Frain said. The safety came up, and once he realized Briley was by him, it was too late. It was a pretty impressive pass. Briley had to get after it to go get it. Thats a real good sign for us.

Phipps also had a 10-yard rushing touchdown.

Clarinda scored on a 27-yard field goal after Blake Luna returned a kickoff to the Panther 13-yard line in the first quarter. The Cardi-nals lone touchdown was a 15-yard run by Luke Strong that cut Creston/O-Ms lead to 14-10 in the second quar-ter.Strong finish

But from there, the Pan-thers scored four unan-swered touchdowns. The half ended with Creston/O-M in front, 21-10.

The first half (Clarinda success) was some special teams stuff, and thats part of football, Morrison said. They are physical up front

and they will be fine in their (2A) district. We have to eliminate some of those penalties, because we had some big gains negated. But overall, the kids are play-ing hard, playing physical football. Were running the football like we thought we could.

Clarinda junior Christian Lauritsen, who triggered the Cardinals single-wing offense from the spinner back position, was taken by ambulance to Greater Re-gional Medical Center after suffering a lower leg injury in the third quarter. The Panthers suffered no signifi-cant injuries.

The night began with a 35-6 victory by the Pan-ther freshman team over the Clarinda freshman/JV squad.

Atlantic, a 47-0 loser to Carroll Friday, visits Pan-ther Field next Friday for the District 1 opener. Atlan-tic started the season with a 7-3 victory over Clarinda.

Everybody in our district is pretty even and lost a re-ally good senior class last year, Morrison said. It will be a dogfight, starting Friday.

PANTHERS:Continued from Page 5A

Getting a good start was something we em-phasized all week in prac-tice, Shields said. The first quarters the past two weeks have been sluggish. We didnt play poorly in those first quarters we just made self-inflicting mistakes. Tonight was a much better start.

Murray tacked on two more touchdowns in the second quarter including a 57-yard scamper by Ner-ness and 60-yard kickoff return for a touchdown by Rider. Murray led 62-0 at halftime and had run only eight offensive plays.

Murrays reserves played the entire second half under continuous clock. Ankeny Christian Acad-emy did manage to score a touchdown late when run-ning back Luke Alessio punched it in from 1-yard out.Dominant defense

The stat book best re-veals Murrays dominance Friday evening as Ankeny Christian Academy had negative seven yards on 32

carries.Their offense never

crossed midfield against Murrays starters.

Offensively, Nerness led the Mustangs on the ground rushing twice for 77 yards and two touchdowns. Murrays Jack Jones had eight car-ries for 45 yards. Murrays Sam Rockhold also took a fake punt 51 yards for touch-d o w n , springing h i m s e l f free on a power fu l stiff arm.

D e f e n -s i v e l y , Murray had 16 tackles for loss. George Barber led the Mustangs defensive at-tack with four solo tackles and one assist.

Murray (2-1, 2-0) travels to Grandview Park Baptist 7 p.m. Friday.

anyone we have ever had at Murray. And of course, An-drew would give credit to his teammates for the blocking hes had. Knowing his name will be at the top of the Iowa record books is an amazing thing for A n d r e w and our program.

The old record of eight punt r e t u r n s for touch-down was held by both Tyler Peterson of Lenox (2007-09) and Mar-cus Mechaelsen of North-east Hamilton (2008-11)

But, the record breaking doesnt stop there for Rider.

Now, Rider is only three punt returns for TD shy of breaking the all-time nation-al record, which according to Bud Legg information director for the Iowa High School Athletic Association (IHSAA) is 11 punt re-turns for TD.

Rider also returned a kickoff 60 yards for a TD Friday. Thats his sixth ca-reer kickoff return for TD which ties him for second all-time in Iowa.

Oh, if all the record-breaking mentioned above wasnt enough, Rider also had a 38-yard interception return for a touchdown against Ankeny Christian. That was his fifth pick 6 of his career.

That, too, ties an all-time Iowa record.

It was a good start for our runners, head coach Deb Larsen said. I was proud of how the athletes pushed themselves despite the warm weather.

Adrian Richards led the Lady Raiders on the 4k course, crossing the line in 17:54, good enought for

second place.Her teammate, Brook

Rychnovsky, also had a top 20 finish.

ADAIR The Adair-Casey Bombers werent airborne very often Friday

The Eagles lost 68-24 on the road Friday night.

We will continue to work on blocking and tackling this week, head coach Steve Kinyon said.

Trevor Barnett led the Eagles with 56 yards passing, 109 yards receiving and threw for 48 yards.

J u n i o r Johnaton Weis went 1 - f o r - 1 passing for 44 yards and a touchdown. Weis also had two receiving touchdowns.

East Union will try to even out the win-lose column Fir-day night, taking on Twin Cedars at home.

Kinyon said they will have to defensively prepare for a lot of passing plays.
