Artist Jeff Davidson will pres- ent a “History of the West” at 3 p.m. Sunday at the Rawlins County High School Auditorium in Atwood, combining a blend of songs, historical facts and pictures. The artist will review the history of the Old West and its influence on the shaping of the U.S. economy, ideology and ideas of heroism, includ- ing the greatest Ameri- can hero, the symbol of the West, the cowboy. Davidson’s presentation leads audiences through this history from the Spanish explorer Coro- nado to the end of the 1800s. You will traipse the plains with early explorers, drive spikes on the first railways, plow in new ground, ride for the Pony Express and stop a stampeding herd. Sit back and take a seat – the “winnin’ of the West” was not for the faint of heart. He also recites original cowboy poetry, and was the 2013 Kansas Cowboy Poet Champ for the serious poetry division. The pro- gram is supported in part by the Kansas Creative Arts Industries Commis- sion, which receives sup- port from the National Endowment for the Arts Admission is by West- ern Plains season ticket, or at the door, adults $10, stu- dents $5. Davidson will present a show geared toward students at 8:30 a.m. at the Atwood schools, and will offer a free community performance at St. Francis High School at 10:30 a.m. Monday, Jan. 26.

The Kansas Highway Pa- trol reported that Rodney A. Hongsermeier, 52, North Platte, was headed west out of Colby at 5:23 p.m. when his rig and another west- bound truck collided near milepost 49, about four miles west of town. The report says Hongsermeier’s vehicle hit the other rig twice, first in the trailer, then in the cab, causing both to crash in the westbound lanes. Fire broke out and swept through both trucks, and witnesses report- ed possible explosions. Troopers reported that a second driver, Duclona Fed- nor, 43, of Forth Worth, got out of the pileup unharmed, but Hongsermeier did not escape.

Taylor Linn Brown, 25, was booked for possession of a nar- cotic drug; Sandra Kay Finlay, 37, was arrested for possession of methamphetamine and possession of drug paraphernalia; and Kirt Alan Dugger, 23, was arrested for possession of certain opiates. The bureau did not immediately provide details about Hays or any of the others. LAWRENCE (AP) – Kansas hospital officials are pleading for the state to expand the Medicaid program for low-income people as allowed under the new federal health care law. Without a change, the hospital officials told a legislative com- mittee during the first week of the session that they face tremendous economic challenges, the Law- rence Journal-World reported (bit.ly/1G2YEvN). “We’re in the roughest time we’ve ever been in,” said Dennis Franks, head of Neosho Memo- rial Regional Medical Center in Chanute, who was among several people who testified Wednesday before the House Vision 2020 Committee. Rep. Tom Sloan, R-Lawrence, who is the chairman of the com- mittee, said he hopes to develop a “Kansas solution” for expanding Medicaid that will pass the con- servative Legislature. Franks said his hospital serves about 42,000 people in a four- county area in southeast Kansas where 12.5 percent of the popula- tion is uninsured and 32 percent of all children live in poverty. He said the cost of providing charity and uncompensated care at Neo- sho runs about $1.4 million a year. “It is a battle out there,” Franks said. “We are under siege from the federal government, and from state government.” The problem for the Neosho hospital, and for many rural hos- pitals, officials said, is that the federal health care law is financed in part with a reduction in hospital payments from Medicare, the fed- eral health insurance program for the elderly. That was supposed to be offset by increasing the number of peo- ple with insurance, through ex- panded Medicaid and subsidized private insurance sold through ex- change markets, thus lowering the amount of money hospitals lose through uncompensated or char- ity care. Under the law, the federal gov- ernment pays almost all of the cost of covering those who become eli- gible for Medicaid due to the ex- pansion. The Kansas Hospital Asso- ciation has estimated that Kansas will forgo $380 million in federal funding this year by not expand- ing Medicaid. Kansas is one of 22 states that so far have declined to expand their Medicaid programs. Freshman Rep. Shannon Fran- cis, R-Liberal, said expanding Medicaid might be good for the hospitals in his district, but he’s not sure whether voters in that conservative part of southwest Kansas are ready to accept it. “I’m not sure there’s a consen- sus yet in my community,” Fran- cis said. Act aims to reduce readmissions WICHITA (AP) – A group of seniors and their supporters is pressing for a bill aimed at ensuring a smooth transition to home for dis- charged hospital patients. Members of the AARP talked to lawmakers and the governor last week about a bill called the Caregiver Act, The Wichita Eagle reported (bit.ly/1CcdMTs). The bill would require hos- pitals to work with a patient’s caregiver, of- ten a family member, to ensure that necessary preparations are in place for the patient to re- cover at home after leaving a hospital. AARP state executive director Maren Turn- er says some hospitals already do a good job of that, but others are inconsistent. “It’s really important the caregiver is well informed on what to do so they (patients) don’t come back in a couple of days or the next week,” Turner said. The bill dovetails with federal and state ef- forts to reduce government health care costs by reducing hospital readmissions among the poor and elderly. Last year, 34 Kansas hospi- tals – more than a fourth of the hospitals in the state – paid penalties for excessive readmis- sions, according to research compiled by Kai- ser Health News, a wing of the Kaiser Family Foundation. Nationally, more than 2,600 hos- pitals were penalized last year. Medicare estimated that preventable read- missions cost the health care system $16 bil- lion in unnecessary hospital bills in 2013, al- though the rate is dropping. Gov. Sam Brownback said he had not seen the language of the Caregiver Act, so he didn’t know if he would endorse it. But he praised the idea, saying it parallels cost-reduction pri- orities within KanCare, the state’s privatized Medicaid health system. “We’re trying to make sure people can take care of themselves so they don’t have to go back into the most expensive care,” he said.

Truck driver dies in fire on InterstateColby firefighter Ross Car-

ney said that several witnesses reported explosions. One of the rigs was hauling large spools of electrical wire, Carney said, and another was carrying sugar. The explosions could have been from the tires popping or from freon refrigerant on the sugar truck, he added, but the fire de-partment is still not sure.

Smoke from the burning rigs could be seen in Colby by 6 p.m., when the Kansas Depart-ment of Transportation closed the westbound lanes from here to Levant. Close to a dozen emergency vehicles including state troopers, sheriff’s deputies. an ambulance and fire trucks re-sponded, with a Colby Fire De-partment tanker truck driving back to town repeatedly to fill up on water.

Perhaps two dozen vehicles in the westbound lane of the highway were stopped behind the wreck for about 15 minutes. Those motorists were eventually told to cross the median and turn around, going back to Colby.

By then, the worst of the fire seemed to have been put out, al-though Carney said the fire de-partment remained at the wreck site until 8:20 p.m.

Highway Patrol officers parked by the westbound off ramp at Exit 53, rerouting traffic headed west down Range Ave.

and then down U.S. 24 on their own to the Levant interchange, bypassing the crash. The east-bound lanes of the highway stayed open.

Michael Terry, assistant dis-trict engineer for the state De-partment of Transportation in

Norton, said it was not until 3 a.m. that workers actually start-ed cleaning up the wreck, since troopers had to investigate. The highway was closed until 7:30 a.m. Sunday, about 14 hours.

A Nebraska state trooper no-tified Hongsermeier’s family of

the wreck about 11 p.m. Sat-urday night. Both trucks were towed to Butch’s Body Shop. The victim’s body was taken to the Baalmann Mortuary in Col-by. His funeral will be at 11 a.m. Friday at the Carpenter Memo-rial Chapel in North Platte.

SAM DIETER/Colby Free PressColby Police officers, firefighters and Kansas Highway Patrol troopers all worked at the scene of a fiery wreck involving two tractor-trailer rigs Saturday, which left one driver dead. The responders closed a section of Interstate 70 for over 12 hours while they investigated the crash and cleaned up the wreck.

Bird Drawing.” Tickets are $20 for the din-ner, and tickets to a special raffle are $5 or five for $20.

Van Koon, president of the chapter board, said usually 40 to 50 items are sold during the live auction. There will also be a silent auction of six to eight items. Steve Bugbee will be the auctioneer, assisted by members of the board.

The board members are still getting all

of the items together for the auction, Koon said. They will choose one of them as the prize for the early bird drawing, he said, but will not reveal what it is until that night.

Several hunting weapons will be up for grabs during the special drawing: a Henry Golden Boy .22 long rifle; a Remington 700 varmint rifle; a Benelli Nova 12-gauge shot-gun; a Benelli Montefeltro 12 gauge; and a CZ Canvasback 20 gauge. Other special drawings include a flat-screen television donated by Farmers and Merchants Bank;

a whole hog with processing donated by Northwest Kansas Telecom, Colby Live-stock and Fitz Meats of Oakley; and a $250 cash prize donated by the Pheasants Forever board. You don’t have to be present to win.

The chapter’s youth board will be running several carnival games at the auction, Koon said, and the money from one of the auc-tion items will be used for youth programs. He said he expects 300 to 350 guests at the auction.

LAWRENCE (AP) – The dis-posal of waste saltwater from hydraulic fracturing could be to blame for a sharp increase in earthquakes in south-central Kansas, according to a geophys-icist with the Kansas Geological Survey.

Rick Miller’s comments are the first by a state official to clearly suggest a link between hydraulic fracturing, common-ly known as fracking, and the earthquakes that have rattled the area in the last two years, The Lawrence Journal-World report-ed (bit.ly/1ABcb5s).

The state recorded more than 120 earthquakes last year, up from none in 2012.

During hydraulic fracturing, a mixture of saltwater and chemi-cals pumped into the ground to break up rock formations and re-lease oil and gas. Operators then inject the waste water deep into disposal wells.

“We can say there is a strong correlation between the dis-posal of saltwater and the earth-quakes,” Miller said.

Rex Buchanan, director of the Kansas Geological Survey, stressed that it is likely disposal of the waste water, not the frack-ing itself, which causes seismic movement.

“If someone were to say these earthquakes were caused by fracking, there might be one or

two, but there is no evidence for it,” Buchanan said. “The issue of saltwater disposal is completely different.”

A task force appointed a year ago by Gov. Sam Brownback to study the problem said in a re-

port released in September that not enough evidence existed to link the two.

A leader of the Sierra Club Kansas criticized Buchanan and other state officials for their re-sponse.

“It is so ridiculous, this issue of semantics,” said Joe Spease, chairman of the Kansas Sierra Club’s fracking committee and owner of a renewable energy company in Overland Park.

TOPEKA (AP) – Kansas wildlife officials are saying an interstate plan to protect the lesser prairie-chicken, listed as a “threatened species” last year, has raised nearly double the expected revenue in its first year.

The plan collects money from fees on new de-velopments in the bird’s natural habitat and dedi-cates that revenue to conservation efforts. Fish and wildlife officials told lawmakers Thursday

that the effort has collected $36.8 million since last year, far exceeding the plan’s goal of $20 million.

According to a spring 2014 estimate, just 22,415 lesser prairie chickens remain in their natural habitat across parts of Kansas, Colorado, Oklahoma, Texas and New Mexico. The five-state plan aims to triple the bird’s population to 67,000.

Colby Rotary Club met Tues-day, Jan. 13, at Pioneer Memorial Library with 33 members, visiting Rotarians Dr. Ed Burger and Di-ane Blick and guest Jean Steele.

The Kansas Cosmosphere was the featured guest program. Dr. Burger, chair of revitalization initiatives and Blick, director of education, presented information on the revitalization efforts of the Cosmosphere. Re-connecting with Western Kansas is a part of the initiative.

Burger noted the Cosmosphere is focusing on education and making connections with unified school districts and universities throughout the state. Their educa-tional focus is on applied STEM education. STEM is an acronym for Science, Technology, Engi-neering and Math. There is a need for this type of education to im-prove advanced math and science scores, not only in Kansas, but in the nation. Burger said this type of education is essential for the future of our country to remain a competitor and world power.

Burger also noted that industry has a huge demand for engineer-ing students and companies are re-cruiting from out of state to satisfy their requirements. It is estimated that in the 21st century, 60 percent of the jobs will required skills possessed by only 20 percent of the population. By providing re-sources for STEM education, it is the hope the Cosmosphere can inspire, engage and educate stu-

dents so they can be employed in the areas of science, technology engineering and math.

The Cosmosphere continues to be well-known for its field trips and space camps. There are an average of 105,000 visitors each year and 1,500 students attend space camps annually. The Cos-mosphere is the only Smithson-ian-affiliated museum in Kansas and has the largest space artifact collection outside of the Smithso-nian. Several of the artifacts dis-plays travel globally.

The Cosmosphere is also recog-nized as one of the eight wonders of Kansas. It was established in 1962 and began with only a plane-tarium that originated on the state fair grounds before being moved to the current site.

The Cosmosphere generates 71 percent of its funding from visitors and donations. It receives some sales tax income from the City of Hutchinson but no state funding.

Burger and Blick also shared information on SpaceWorks, part of the Cosmosphere located on the west side of Hutchinson. Space-Works refurbishes, or conserves, space aircraft engines that have been recovered from the ocean floor.

TOPEKA – Heating your home during the winter months can cre-ate a financial burden. The Kan-sas Department for Children and Families will begin accepting applications for its Low Income Energy Assistance Program on Tuesday.

“Winter has just begun,” De-partment Secretary Phyllis Gilm-ore said. “The winter months can bring frigid temperatures, and we want families to be able to escape the cold in the warmth of their homes.”

The program provides an an-nual benefit to help qualifying households pay winter heating bills. Persons with disabilities, older adults and families with children are the primary groups assisted. In 2014, nearly 48,000 households received an average benefit of $522.

To qualify, applicants must be responsible for direct payment of their heating bills. Income eligi-bility requirements are set at 130 percent of the federal poverty level.

Applicants must demonstrate that they have made payments on their heating bill two out of the last three months. Those payments must be equal to or exceed $80 or the total balance due on their en-ergy bills, whichever is less.

Applications have been mailed to households that received en-ergy assistance last year. Appli-cations are also available at local department offices and partnering agencies. They can be requested by calling (800) 432-0043. To ap-ply online, go to www.dcf.ks.gov. More information is available at www.dcf.ks.gov/services/ees/Pages/Energy/EnergyAssistance.aspx.

Applications will be accepted from Jan. 20 to March 31.

Top monthly income for eligi-bility for one person at an address is $1,265; for two, $1,705; for three, $2,144; four, $2,584. Add $440 for each additional person,

Funding for the Low Income Energy Assistance program is pro-vided by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.

Bill Beigel, a World War II researcher, will give a presen-tation at 8 p.m. (Central Time) Wednesday, January 21 at the High Plains Museum in Good-land.

Beigel’s talk will be “Re-turn of the World War II Dead: How the demands of American families changed history” with a special segment on “Tell Me About My Boy: 2nd Lt. Fred. K Stewart, from Clearwater, Kan-sas to Germany and Back.”

In 1947, across the United States, tens of thousands of American servicemen and women made their silent re-turn from World War II. These Americans were the soldiers, flyers, naval personnel and Ma-rines who had met their deaths overseas and whose remains were being returned, at gov-ernment expense, to their next of kin. This effort occurred entirely during Harry S. Tru-man’s presidency. The “Return of the Dead” program was un-precedented in expense and scope, and remains unique in

world history. No other nation returned its dead to the home-land after the war. Yet this story, from 1947 to 1951, remains a forgotten legacy of the Truman presidency.

Beigel is an American mili-tary casualty researcher, spe-cializing in the records of American servicemen and women who died in active duty in World War II and the Ko-rean and Vietnam wars. He has researched nearly a thousand fallen service members, pro-viding long-sought knowledge about the deaths and last acts in wartime of family members, fellow servicemen, entire fight-ing squads, or a complete list of veterans who served from a community, school, university, or region. Beigel holds a bach-elor’s in history and a master’s in geography from UCLA.

The museum is near down-town Goodland and features exhibits of local history. For more information go online or call (785) 890-4595.

Well, those read-ing this article made it through the holiday drinking season with-out dying – way to go.

One might think I am joking – far from it. The holidays, for many of us, seem like a strong green light to stretch out and do some serious drinking which can result in se-vere problems for some. There are company parties, home parties, sporting event parties, celebra-tions, sorrows to address, resent-ments, anger, bar parties, im-promptu parties, etc. If one can’t find an excuse to drink in that mess, then I can’t help much.

In addition, it seems like many people die of natural causes around the holidays – so we can drown our sorrows at the time of death and for years to come around the time of death. Of course, if the spouse moves out or one of the animals dies – we would need a drink to get us through the event.

Now here is an absurd thought for us more adventurous folks. Some people go through all of those events, at one time or anoth-er, and don’t drink. That’s amaz-ing.

I noticed at AA one year that the number of people celebrating their sobriety birthday in Decem-ber is low. But strangely, or not so strangely, there are lots of people celebrating their sobriety birth-days in the months of January and February. I suppose there may be a correlation between the celebra-tions of November and December and the strong remorse feelings right after the first of the year.

The “normies,” those people that truly only use drinking to be sociable, often never even finish-ing their first drink of the evening, don’t have to go through the re-morse feelings – since they didn’t take their clothes off and parade around at the company party, or get in a fist fight over nothing at the local bar.

The powerful feelings of the remorseful heavy drinker do have an impact and may stop one in his tracks, but the power of pull to-ward the next drink is often even more powerful. That is one of those truisms that is baffling. As a reminder, the “Big Book of Alco-holics Anonymous” states that the disease is “cunning, baffling and powerful.” In my opinion, that is an understatement.

In AA, “hitting bottom” is a term often thrown around. Hit-ting bottom is that point where the drinker can finally say “uncle,” or surrender to the disease. At that point the drinker will go to any length to get well. He is throwing in the towel. He is sick and tired of being sick and tired.

The bottom for some is death. We’ve all seen it. In those circum-stances the death certificate says something about heart disease, but let’s face it, he drank himself to death. One can quickly conclude that hitting bottom arrives at a dif-ferent point for each of us.

If you have hit bottom, desper-ate and despondent, the problems seem monumental and you are frantically searching for answers. Then you are at the turning point – right there. Here’s the good news – what took you so long – we’ve been waiting for you – and there is plenty of help available to assist you in finding serenity and sobri-ety.

Do some quick research. Be sure to get to an AA meeting right away. Go early and stay a few minutes after the meeting. Listen to what they have to say, especial-ly the old-timers.

Inpatient treatment is a good op-tion for some. You will get plenty of concentrated attention in treat-ment. In my case, I found treat-ment enlightening and beneficial.

There is a tendency at first to be paranoid about other people “find-ing out.” Don’t worry about petty stuff like that – your life and your turnaround is what is vitally im-portant – focus on the turn around.

Go to a meeting every day. That is imperative. There, you will find answers and get help. You will make it.

Live in the moment. Trust in the higher power. Don’t give up until the miracle happens. I’m looking forward to making your acquain-tance at AA. Good luck friend.

Orscheln Farm and Home LLC, a Midwest fam-ily-owned rural retailer, has acquired a 357,000 square foot distribution center located on 54 acres in Abilene.

“This is a great way to start 2015,” said Stephen Chick, the company’s president. “Orscheln is ex-cited about the growth opportunities represented by the addition of this second distribution center and is now poised to double the number of Orscheln Farm

and Home retail stores as we continue our growth and expansion.”

The company operates a chain of over 160 retail stores in Arkansas, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kan-sas, Kentucky, Missouri, Nebraska and Oklahoma, which are serviced by a distribution center at the company headquarters in Moberly, Mo.

The property purchased was formerly an Alco dis-tribution center.

WESTBROOK, Maine (AP) – Christmas trees can be enjoyed long after they are discarded by a family. They’re a great source of vitamin C – for goats.

A Maine farm is extending an invitation to residents who don’t know what to do with their dis-carded trees.

Hillary Knight, the barnyard manager at Smiling Hill Farm in Westbrook, Maine, says the farm’s goats are more than happy to eat the trees.

She says it’s a win-win. Hu-mans can recycle their trees and the goats get a treat.

She tells WCSH-TV (on.wcsh6.

com/1Keihk6) it’s like humans eating oranges dipped in choco-late – a treat with health benefits.

So far, 200 trees have been do-nated.

Elsewhere, the Vermont Goat Collaborative is also collecting trees for goats.

Lawmakers, focus on heavy lifting first

This is the third column on the pioneers of Gem, Kansas using the book, “A History of Gem, Kansas,” by Bill James and Marj Brown as a reference. My thanks to Arlene James for permission to use this material.

James Floyd Smith came from Iowa to northwest Kansas in 1879 to search for place to make a new home. His three sons, C.K., E.T. and Henry came along with him. After searching around the Gem area, they chose sites along the Sappa Creek just north and west of the present town of Gem. All of them took homesteads there and at first, James Floyd built a sod dugout.

During the severe December weather of 1885, James Floyd froze his thumb, and before it could heal, he acquired blood poisoning. He died in January 1886 and was buried in the Cumberland Cemetery.

Henry Smith did not remain in Northwest Kansas, but moved to Kansas City instead.

E.T. Smith developed a region called “Hay Valley Ranch,” where he raised a large number of horses. An area on that ranch, at that time called Shill’s Grove, was a meeting place for various celebrations such as the annual, “Old Settler’s Day Picnics.” That grove of trees was later named, “Smith’s Grove.”

E.T.’s sons, Floyd L. Smith and Max Smith, later ran general stores in Colby. When “A History of Gem” was published, their fam-ily members in Thomas County were Maude

Smith, wife of Floyd L., and their son, Dr. Floyd L, Smith II, and his wife, Mary. Dr. Smith and Mary have since died. Their daugh-ter Nancy is married to Lyle Saddler and works at the Pioneer Memorial Library; daughter Sue is married to Ron Evans and works with the Thomas County Coalition; daughter Sal-ly Smith, teaches school in Colby, and the Smith’s son, Floyd “Buddy” Smith lll, does not live in Thomas County.

C.K. Smith was a teacher and a farmer. His granddaughter was Bessie Smith Mellick, then of Colby. C.K.’s son, Asa M. taught in the Gem school and the Dilatush County School northwest of there.

Vada Bunnell, daughter of Mrs. N.A. Bun-nell who had settled about two and a half miles north of Gem, reported that she taught school in a sod dugout near there. She told about how the Goin children carried their shoes to school and put them on when they got there so they wouldn’t wear them out. Social life in those days consisted of attending school programs,

literary performances, oyster suppers and church functions.

Asa M. Smith married Vada Bunnell in 1892 and settled in Colby. Asa was a lawyer and also farmed. Their family ran Smith’s Greenhouse and Floral Shop in Colby for many years. It was a half block east of the Colby Public Schools Administration Building.

At that time, their relations in the area were Bessie L. Mellick, Theodore A. Smith and the descendants of Guido E. Smith.

Theodore Smith’s daughter Mildred, mar-ried Wayne Lauritsen, son of Esther Treat Lauritsen of the Goin family descendants. Wayne and Mildred “Millie” Lauritsen lived in the Cumberland area until they retired to Colorado. They are bluegrass musicians and often return to Colby to perform at the yearly Pickin’ On the Plains Blue Grass Festival. Mil-lie’s brother, Milton Smith, no longer lives in Thomas County.

Guido Smith’s wife, Irma Beaver Smith, taught in the Gem School about 1920, bringing to four the number of Smith family members who taught there.

Marj Brown has lived in Colby since 1947 and has spent a good deal of that time writing about people and places here. She says its one of her favorite things to do

Father and sons move from Iowa

Have you ever taken a class where the teach-er did not know the subject and was just a few pages ahead of the students each day?

Students can tell when the teacher doesn’t know what they are talking about. Unfortu-nately, such teachers have become more com-mon in recent years.

Two decades ago, if a Kansas public school assigned a “teacher” to a course outside their field for more than two years, the school would lose its state money. That requirement ended when teacher certification was changed to licensure. Kansas administrators used the Quality Performance Accreditation standards as a rationale to convince the state Board of Education to “trust us” to have qualified teach-ers in the classroom.

But there were unqualified teachers in the classrooms back then. Schools had several “work-arounds.”

I regularly ran the Department of Education science teachers’ mailing lists. I noticed when a teacher that had moved to a new school 200 miles across the state was still listed at his pri-or small rural school where recruiting teachers was difficult.

In other cases, when science teachers are promoted to administrators, they can be listed as overseeing a course taught by an unlicensed teacher; but the assumed “oversight” is neg-ligible. This common shuck-and-jive is still used today and is completely legal.

For a brief time under No Child Left Behind, there was a requirement to actually verify teacher credentials to meet criteria for “highly qualified” teachers. A state staffer at the time actually visited schools. That staffer found more not-highly-qualified teachers than were on the records schools submitted that year, but that audit system came and went.

Today I continue to run off the state lists of science teachers and find some duplicated

names for schools that are quite distant. There are some legitimate cases of a science teacher teaching at one rural district in the morning and driving to another school in the afternoon, so a bona fide teacher might be listed twice. But state lists show one teacher at no less than eight schools, some over 100 miles apart.

The budget simply does not allow extensive on-site checks of K-12 credentials.

Unfortunately the situation in Kansas higher education is just as bad.

There are plenty of regulations and guide-lines that attempt to maintain some minimal standards for academic courses and the faculty who teach them.

There should be at least 15 class contact hours or equivalent for every hour of academ-ic credit given. No more than one credit hour should be awarded per week in any condensed summer or off-hours course. Faculty are to have their terminal degree in their field at re-gents universities.

But some tech schools offer three credits for a two-weekend academic course. And they can hire teachers who barely have half the coursework needed to teach the subject in high school!

Both the new commissioner of education and the veteran president of the Board of Regents should stroll over to the nearby law enforcement departments in Topeka and hire away their biggest officers. They should keep their uniforms and guns and begin visiting

educational institutions across Kansas and en-force the criteria on the books.

But instead, I am told that education stan-dards are “enforced” by the accreditation pro-cess. That is the honor-system paper-chase that allows violations to go undetected. We only have to look at the recent case at the Uni-versity of North Carolina where, for almost 20 years, many athletes were enrolled in fake courses. And all of this time the university was accredited by its regional agency.

The K-12 Student Performance and Effi-ciency Commission just reported out plans to “recommend regular audits” and “check best financial practices” of Kansas school districts. Unfortunately, if approved and funded by the Kansas Legislature, that would all center on money. It is a committee of penny-pinching Scrooges. No one would audit faculty creden-tials or course integrity.

Consider what would happen to our medical system if no one enforced the regulations that prevent people from practicing medicine with-out a license. When unqualified teachers can pass as qualified, it not only denies a position to a competent teacher, but it also makes the shortage go away on paper.

Until someone in education picks up a badge and a gun, education in Kansas is not unlike the Wild West.

John Richard Schrock, a professor of biolo-gy and department chair at a leading teacher’s college, lives in Emporia. He emphasizes that his opinions are strictly his own.

Everyone knows lawmakers must find a solution to a prob-lem that has vexed too many Legislatures over the past several administrations – a state budget that has gotten woefully out of balance and threatens not only state business during the cur-rent fiscal year but also the next year.

Because Gov. Sam Brownback and legislative leaders al-ready have some ideas about how they want to balance the cur-rent budget, that issue may be resolved fairly soon, although it will require approval by the full Legislature. Drafting a budget for the state’s 2016 fiscal year, which begins July 1, likely will prove to be much more difficult; it will take some time and plenty of debate.

As all that is going on, other issues will demand attention. Those include money for public schools. A three-member pan-el of district court judges has ruled the state’s funding level is inadequate and unconstitutional, but declined to order the state to dedicate a specific amount of money toward resolving the issue. The issue is expected to come before the Legislature in some fashion.

Other issues known to be headed toward legislators include a bill regarding human trafficking, which this newspaper is on record as favoring, and a bill on abortion. Additional bills, many of which address things the public isn’t aware are issues, will crop up over the next few months.

The Capital-Journal’s standard advice to legislators at this time of the year is to focus on the really heavy lifting first. Ev-erything else can wait. What doesn’t resurface at a later date, or during the next legislative session, didn’t really deserve a lot of consideration.

Our advice this year is the same. Some things need to be done. Some things should be done. Many things don’t need to be done and shouldn’t be done.

– The Topeka Capital-Journal, via the Associated Press

Famous HandBarry Crane was best known to the general

public for his role in producing, directing and writing such popular television shows as “Mis-sion: Impossible” and “Mannix” in the 1960s, ‘70s and ‘80s.

In the bridge world, however, Crane was a standout for a different reason. For many years after his untimely death in 1985, he still headed the American Contract Bridge League’s all-time master point list, having accumulated 35,084 points in his lifetime.

Crane was declarer in this deal played in the Vanderbilt Team Championship. West led a dia-mond to his partner’s ace, and East returned a diamond, ruffed by Crane.

It would be very easy to go down in four spades. All declarer need do is to make the natural-look-ing play of a low spade toward the jack, and he is sure to lose three trump tricks as well as the dia-mond already lost. But Crane accomplished his mission quite easily when, at trick three, he led the queen of spades rather than a low one!

This singular thrust rendered the defense help-less. It did not matter whether East or West won the trick; in either case the defenders could not score more than two trump tricks.

Crane based his queen-of-spades play on the reasonable assumption that East – who was known to hold a long diamond suit – had the dou-bleton ace or king of trumps, and the queen lead was specifically directed toward that possibility.

In the actual case, East took the queen with the ace and returned a club. Crane went up with the ace, led another trump toward the J-7, and the battle was over. He later discarded two clubs on dummy’s hearts to bring the contract home.

In 18th-cen-tury England, most women married when young, had children and learned to cook, take care of the house and children, make textiles or at least cre-ate bedding or clothing, and be her hus-band’s helper when needed.

Hester Bate-man was an exception. She married a man who made gold chains. He died after they had six chil-dren. He left the metal-working tools to his wife in his will so he must have known what a skillful silversmith she was.

Hester became a registered silvermaker in 1761 using the mark “HB” in script. By 1774 she was in her own business with two of her sons. They used the latest methods and made their sil-verware from thin sheets of silver rather than the Sheffield plate type made by others. They stayed with traditional styles and made everything from tea caddies to inkwells. Hester retired in 1790, and died in 1794. She was the first well-known female silversmith in England, and her work has always been popular with today’s collectors.

I knew about the pioneering woman. While in college I looked for, bought for $15, and still have a pair of Hester Bateman silver sugar tongs. It was one of my first antiques. Brunk Auctions in Asheville, N. C., sold a Bateman teapot in the fall of 2014, for $2,832.

Q: I have a 300-400 pound iron anvil that was given to me almost 40 years ago. I sprayed it black because it was rusting, and it’s rust-ing a little bit again. The anvil is dated 1917. I used it as a decoration in the past, but I have no use for it anymore. Can you give me some idea of its worth?

A: Cast-iron anvils have been made in differ-ent sizes and shapes for different uses. Anvils weighing several hundred pounds were primarily used in industry, while smaller ones were used by farmers to sharpen tools. Someone who col-lects old tools or vintage farm equipment might be interested an old anvil, but a large, heavy an-vil could be harder to sell than one that’s easier to pick up and display. The date on your anvil adds interest. Recent prices include $192 for a 115-pound anvil and $380 for a 160-pound anvil.

Tip: Stains on crystal stemware sometimes can be removed by rubbing the stain with a cut lemon or a cloth dipped in turpentine.

What a weekend to forgetRated powers are rough on Colby High, college hoops

R.B. HEADLEY/Colby Free PressColby High dancers had their best moves ready for a halftime show during Friday’s home basketball game with Hugoton. The team will conduct its annual Junior Dance Clinic for kids from kin-dergarten through fifth grade at 2:45 p.m. on Wednesday in Col-by Middle School’s cafeteria. Participants perform during half-time of the Colby High girls Orange & Black Classic Thursday against defending Classic champ Palmer Ridge, Colo. Camp fee is $20, or $10 for those who qualify for free or reduced lunches. Contact coach Denita Rodgers at 460-5300 to get details.

Those other Eaglesfinish a 6-0 Friday

Winning one and two-point thrillers, the visiting Hugoton bas-ketball teams completed a perfect 6-0 visit to Colby Friday evening.

Hugton’s JV girls won 44-42 over a Colby High squad that’s been winning most of its other contests this season.

Meanwhile, the C girls two-quarter contest was even closer as

No matter how tempting, a wise coach would never say in his post-game comments “well, we were looking pretty good until the game started.”

Especially since the Colby High girls took an early lead on 4A Di-vision II No. 1 Hugoton Friday night.

Non-stop hustle led to four con-secutive Colby shots with junior Brenly Terrell finally swishing a three for a 3-2 home-team edge.

That was about it as far as Col-by basketball teams leading dur-ing the weekend.

Colby High dropped a pair of 29-point contests against top-five rated Hugoton foes on Friday, and Saturday was even tougher when Colby Community College fell by 91 total points at national power-house Hutchinson College.

However, Eagle girls coach Ryan Becker offered the best re-action after his team’s 56-27 set-back.

“We’re ready to play them (Hugoton) again,” he said. “We want to play them right now. We learned what we need to do to get better. And to a woman, our play-ers realized we didn’t do what we needed to do in practice to get ready for this game.”

Hugoton (7-1 record) made Colby pay by scoring its seventh

win this season of 26 points or more.

Goodland’s the only Kansas school to play Hugoton closer this season (69-42 loss). The Eagles’ only loss was 66-34 to Grover, Texas, on Dec. 13.

Colby (3-6 record) rallied past Goodland Tuesday night, and the girls only trailed 17-11 Friday night after senior Michaela Gie-bler made a good baseline move and scored.

Hugoton responded with a 10-2 run to finish the first half ahead, 27-13.

“We took good shots, both in-side and out. But they outphysi-caled us to the point where we lost sine confidence offensively,”

Becker said. Another Terrell trifecta tipped

off that second half — only to see Hugoton unleash a 14-4 run which finished the third quarter.

A buzzer-beating triple made it 41-20 and ended any remain-ing Colby comeback hopes along with relentlessly troubling Hugo-ton full-court pressure.

Senior Hailey Schindler still muscled through to bank in the first fourth-quarter basket, show-ing again how these Colby Eagles will not quit.

Terrell later lofted a smooth runner over taller defenders, drop-ping perfectly through the net.

That kind of focus will be need-ed entering Thursday’s Orange

& Black Classic opener against defending champ Palmer Ridge, Colo.

“We get to play the team that took the trophy from us (last year), and we’re excited about it,” Becker concluded. “We’re going to have three good days of practice, come out rip roaring and ready to go.”

Complete Colby Eagle leaders from Friday night:

Colby (27) — Terrell 8 points, Giebler 6, Schindler 4, Kelly Sloan 3, Hannah Strange 2, Darby Sager 2, Brielle McKee 2. Re-bound leaders: Terrell 5, Giebler 3, Sager 3, Schindler 3. Assist: Bailey Foss. Steals: Five girls with 1.

Titan teams are tootough for Cougars

Colby High sophomore Tate Carney proved 26-0 is still tough-er than 25-0 as he won an unbeat-en showdown at Saturday’s 52nd annual Newton Tournament of Championship.

Carney conquered three 113-pound opponents in this 27-team tournament before facing undefeated Conner Ward from Mill Valley for the title.

Though it went far longer than most Carney matches this season, the returning 4A state finalist cap-tured a 7-4 championship win.

Carney (27-0 this season) led a quartet of Colby High placers taht also featured juniors Austin Hart (fourth at 220), Bryce Arnberger (fifth at 160) and Brett Schroeder (seventh at 132).

Almost every other Eagle won at least one match as Colby totaled 86 points to take 12th among the 27 teams.

They wrestled without a full varsity lineup since sophomore heavyweight Ethan Jay stayed home with the flu.

“It (sickness) seems to be the problem for every team in the state right now,” coach Matt Sims said. “Sickness has hit hard and in effect, we’re seeing teams not at full strength. We plan to be health-ier this week as (Ben) Matchell should be back as well as Ethan.”

“That is the plan right now, of course,” he concluded.

3A No. 1 Norton will visit Col-by for a dual at 6 p.m. on Thurs-day at Colby High School.

The Bluejays finished fourth at Newton (130 points) behind Gar-den City (191.5), Grand Island, Neb. (139) and Ark City (131.5).

Colby was tied for 12th with Maize South High. Maize, Derby and Salina South were among the teams behind them.

A glance at all Eagle results:

113: Tate Carney (27-0) won the title. He won 16-3 over D. Taylor, Manhattan; 13-0 over D. Rodd, Andover Central; 11-2 over A. Trowbrige, McPherson; and 7-4 over C. Ward, Mill Valley.

The Triplains-Brewster High basketball teams continued their winning ways with a varsity sweep at Cheylin Friday evening.

Coach Kent Gfeller’s Titan girls are now 7-1 thanks to their 44-26 triumph. They started fast at 15-4 through one quarter, led 26-9 by halftime and 36-13 entering those final eight minutes.

Meanwhile, the Triplains-Brew-ster boys are 6-2 thanks to their 46-35 victory over those Cheylin Cougars.

These Titas also never trailed after a 13-4 first quarter. They maintained a 23-12 halftime lead, saw Cheylin close within 28-20, but then finished strong by scor-ing 18 fourth-period points.

Blue Dragons blast TrojansBy R.B. Headley

Colby Free [email protected]

If basketball games ever needed “delete” buttons, it was Saturday night’s Colby Community Col-lege visit to Hutchinson College.

The No. 2 nationally-ranked Blue Dragon women scored a 91-31, easily Colby’s worst de-feat during an otherwise vastly improved 10-9 season (3-3 in Jay-hawk League).

“There’s nothing positive to say. We lost. We got hammered,” Col-by coach Antowin Edwards did

say. “They are a very good team, and the officiating helps them a lot. But we didn’t do anything to help officials make a call for us.”

“Like the Butler game (77-44 Trojan loss on Wednesday), this was one to put in the box and throw away,” he added.

The Trojans return home for a game Wednesday night against Barton Community College. And despite last week’s setbacks, Ed-wards sees no reason why his team can’t get right back on track.

“Definitely,” he said when asked if the Trojans can still fin-ish among Jayhawk Conference

top four teams. “All we can do is come out and win the next game.”

The Trojan men (11-9 overall, 2-4 league) will likely bring a similar approach into Wednesday after falling 101-70 at powerful Hutchinson (15-4) Saturday night.

Colby’s attack did feature five double-figure scorers in Kyhree Wooten (17 points), James Yarn-ton (12), Brandon Trotter (11), Bruce Watkins Jr. (11) and Hassan Attia (10).

Watkins delivered five assists and Wooten four. However, Hutch unleashed a 56-point second half to pull away.

Hugoton downs Colby boysBy R.B. Headley

Colby Free [email protected]

No. 4-ranked Hugoton’s height and talent took charge early dur-ing a 62-33 victory over the Colby High varsity boys Friday evening.

Senior Ashton Russ followed his 30-point effort against Good-land on Tuesday with a basket that caught the visitors, 2-2.

However, Hugoton ran off 14 unanswered points to lead 16-2 and not be caught again.

The margin reached 44-16 by halftime. Although Colby played a far more respectable 18-17, it still featured that dreaded re-turn of the continuously running fourth-quarter clock.

“One thing I can always say about this team is they never stop playing hard,” coach Kevin Brown said. “But we have to play smart, too. We didn’t take advan-tage of the chances they were giv-ing us.”

Colby second-half highlights included Ashton Russ hitting the first shot after intermission, and sophomore Rex Branum swishing though a final basket just before this Great West Conference Ac-tivities contest ended.

The Eagles (0-9 record) now prepare for their annual Orange & Black Classic starting Thursday when they take on Palmer Ridge, Colo., Colby got a first win of the season in last year’s Classic.
