MONDAY November 11, 2013 127th Year, No. 146 Serving Sheridan County, Wyoming Independent and locally owned since 1887 www.thesheridanpress.com 75 Cents Press Wyoming man faces life in slaying of sons, brother THE SHERIDAN CHEYENNE (AP) — A Wheatland man faces life in prison when he goes before a judge on Tuesday for sentencing on murder charges in the 2011 shooting deaths of his three young sons and his brother. Everett Conant III, 37, pleaded no-contest in June to the four killings and to a charge of attempted murder against his ex-wife, who also was wounded in the shootings at a Wheatland trailer park. Prosecutors have agreed not to seek the death penalty. Kerri Johnson of the Wyoming Public Defender’s Office represents Conant and ON THE WEB: www.thesheridanpress.com THE WEEK IN PHOTOS: NOV. 1-9 Cowboys fall to Fresno State Saturday.

Conant’s sons — 11-year-old Joseph, 13year-old Charles and 18-year-old Everett — and Conant’s brother, Nacuma Roland Conant, 33, were all shot and killed at the family’s mobile home.

Soon after the killings, Conant initially entered pleas of not guilty and “not guilty by reason of mental illness.” His prosecution dragged out as he under- BY HANNAH WIEST THE SHERIDAN PRESS FROM STAFF REPORTS SHERIDAN — Recent statistics released by the Wyoming Department of Workforce Services Research and Planning Section indicate employment in the state is up 0.2 percent and and the average weekly wage increased by $7 compared to the same quarter last year. Despite growth in overall employment, which is currently faster than the five-year average, the state still lags 2.1 percent behind employment levels during the first quarter of 2008 and 2009. In addition, wages rates have not kept up with job growth. In Sheridan, 147 jobs were lost, but average weekly wages rose $9 to $719 per week. BILLINGS, Mont. (AP) — The Montana Highway Patrol says a drunken driver is to blame for a crash on U.S. Highway 314 near Decker that caused a semi to spill 38 tons of coal. Trooper Ben Panas tells The Billings Gazette the driver of a car tried to pass a semi hauling two trailers of coal as it traveled around a curve in the highway at about 6 p.m. Wednesday. The car hit a guardrail. Panas says it’s not clear if the semi hit the car or if the driver crashed because he was trying to avoid the car. Panas says the driver of the car will be charged as soon as officials verify who was driving. The driver of the semi and three people in the car were treated at a hospital in Sheridan. SEE KILLING, PAGE 2 Collecting memories of service Weekly wages up despite losing 147 jobs MHP: Drunken driver to blame for coal truck crash went repeated evaluations at the Wyoming State Hospital in Evanston to determine whether he was mentally competent to answer criminal charges. Conant entered his no-contest pleas to the charges at a hearing in June at the state hospital. The pleas came after District Judge John Brooks of Douglas ruled he was competent to stand trial based on a stipulation to his condition by both the prosecution and the defense. THE SHERIDAN PRESS HANNAH WIEST Sheridan resident Mary Burgess, 93, received an old footlocker a year ago that belonged to her husband, Henry A. Burgess. She filled it with relics from her father’s, her brother’s, her mother’s, her husband’s and her own service during World War I and World War II. She spent some time going through the items recently as Veterans Day approached. SHERIDAN — When she was a little girl, she would sit on her daddy’s lap and he would tell her about the war to end all wars. “He said there would be no more wars after that. Of course, you can’t count them now…” Her voice fades to a whisper. Her gaze drops, but it is obvious she is not looking down so much as back. Way back. Ninety-three years back over a life in which her father, her mother, her brother, her husband and herself served in America’s wars. Sheridan resident Mary Burgess has black-and-white photographs to help her remember. They show a 22-yearold woman eager to serve like so many of her loved ones had served. She has letters received from servicemen she met while serving coffee and donuts with the American Red Cross — sometimes just behind the front line — in Europe during World War II. Some came to her after men were killed, words left to live on paper long after spoken words, last words, died with the soldier. She has her husband’s trunk, engraved with a fading “Henry A. Burgess.” She received it last year and treasures the relics within, relics from a family of veterans of war. • World War I Navy uniform Her father, Joseph Ralston Hayden, joined the navy during World War I because that’s what men did then, Burgess said. He was a gunner on a Navy ship in France. His uniform has permanent dirt stains — and gold buttons. “Mother and daddy were together when he wore that suit, and she said she had impressions from those buttons all the way down her front,” Burgess said. Going to war means embraces are a little tighter and a little longer. • Sailor hat Her father went to the Philippines during World War II. He was on Gen. Douglas MacArthur’s staff because he and his wife and children had lived in the Philippines for four years after World War I and he knew the culture. SEE BURGESS, PAGE 6 Day Break staff works to keep seniors social, active BY TRACEE DAVIS THE SHERIDAN PRESS SHERIDAN — For many, the Sheridan Senior Center is a hangout for residents who want to make the most of their retirements. The Day Break program takes that concept to a new level to empower families. Day Break Director, Barbara Blue, said most people don’t know about the program until they find themselves in a situation where they are taking care of an elder family member, but also holding down a job outside the home. The Day Break program not only boasts a capable staff to be with elders during regular business hours, but also keeps a certified nursing assistant handy to help with bathing and personal care. Scan with your smartphone for latest weather, news and sports “It’s a social model of adult care,” Blue said. “It’s about socialization and getting people out of their homes into a safe environment.” While the program is specifically designed for elders who live with their working children, other clients come by once in a while so they’re not stuck at home alone. “It’s about people,” Blue said. “We get to know people and develop those relationships. It’s really important.” A typical day starts when participants arrive at the Day Break facility, which is connected to the main Senior Center, via either a ride from a family member or the minibus.

"When that's over, though, the TV goes off,” Blue said. “I feel like people can watch TV at home, so when they come here, it’s all about activities.” Most attendees say they enjoy showing up to Day Break for the socialization, and they expect to be kept busy. The larger picture of the Day Break program is that the day services offered enables families to keep their loved ones out of a full-time nursing home. Caretaker Neddie Cook said she found the Day Break program after her mother’s failing memory made it so she would be better off if she wasn’t alone during the day. “She originally had dementia, and then it went into Alzheimer’s,” Cook said. “I would have to quit work if it wasn’t for Day Break and the people there. They take excellent care of mother, and I feel confident when they’re watching her.” Cook said that starting the Day Break program wasn’t easy. “I thought to myself, ‘Mama’s not going to go for this,’” she admitted. “She doesn’t have any hobbies or interests in anything. Mother’s hobby is helping people — cleaning house, getting coffee, folding clothes, whatever, and I thought she wasn’t going to like it.” However, Cook said she was pleasantly surprised after she took the plunge. “We got her to go and stay there one day, and (the staff) just fell in love with her,” she said. “They thought she was the sweet- est thing, and mother liked everybody there. They take excellent care of her.” Cook said an incremental part of making the Day Break program work for her family was that the staff sat down with her and together, they were able to establish a customized care and diet plan. “You really have to watch her like a hawk because of the Alzheimer’s,” Cook said. “Wandering is always a big thing,” Blue agreed, adding that the Daybreak facility has buzzers on the door so the staff knows when people come and go. She said the Daybreak program can help people with dementia or Alzheimer’s in addition to those who may be recovering from a stroke. However, the social model of the program does not provide for advanced medical care, so participants should be relatively medically stable. “A lot of people, when they bring their person here, it’s kind of their last effort before a nursing home,” Blue said. “Sometimes, it’s too late by then, because they really need the extra care we can’t provide. That’s why they need to come sooner.” Day Break services are billed on a sliding-scale fee schedule based on the income of the attendee. From there, the senior’s rent, insurance and medical costs are deducted before the Day Break fees are established. The Day Break senior care model is a unique resource to the Sheridan community that aims to help both elders and their caretakers arrange sustainable living situations. Next week, county officials will consider a grant to build a new, separate facility to house the program. Sheridan County Grant Administrator Mike Mackey said Sheridan’s county commissioners will consider endorsing the grant at their next regularly scheduled meeting.

Independent newspapers assist in this cause by carrying out their partnership with the people’s right to know through public notices. By offering an independent and archived record of public notices, newspapers foster a more trusting relationship between government and its citizens. Newspapers have the experience and expertise in publishing public notices and have done so since the Revolutionary War. Today, they remain an established, trustworthy and neutral source that ably transfers information between government and the people. Public notices are the lasting record of how the public’s resources are used and are presented in the most efficient and effective means possible.

National Weather for Tuesday, November 12 Big Horn 23/53 Basin 24/53 Barbara Ellen Alexander Woodson, 83, a 30-year resident of Sheridan County, passed away November 3, 2013 in Hemet, CA after a series of strokes. She was native to the Los Angeles Area and grew up in Corvallis, OR. She met and Barbara married her husband for life, Karl G. Woodson "Woody" Woodson, in Los Angeles County in 1955 as he was serving a tour in the US Navy. As the family grew, they then moved into the bustling suburbs of Orange County, CA before deciding to relocate and fully embrace a country lifestyle. They initially moved to Dayton, WY in 1973, before settling into their ranch and stateof-the-art, self-designed home near Wyarno in 1974. Barbara was heavily involved in the Sheridan community, directing successful duplicate bridge tournaments at several venues in town. She was also an independent accountant representing numerous Sheridan area businesses. She enjoyed crochet, swimming, gardening, recipes, card and board games as well as supporting her husband's busy local ranching and high school teaching careers as they raised their identical twin boys. After their sons both joined the US Navy, the couple eventually decided to sell their ranch in 2002 and traveled extensively by RV from their new retirement home in Sequim, WA, to Hemet, CA for the winter and back, with many points in between. Barbara would continue enjoying these trips, which often included deliberately passing through Sheridan, before her call to heaven. She was preceded in death by her only sister, Willa Hughes, formerly of Long Beach, CA. She is survived by her loving husband Woody, 79, Sequim, WA; 50-year-old twins John Woodson, Phoenix, AZ, and Andy Woodson, Casper; and 4 grandchildren in California and Nevada. Services will be delayed until March, 2014 in Washington to allow this beautiful couple one more RV trip together.

A6 THE SHERIDAN PRESS www.thesheridanpress.com MONDAY, NOVEMBER 11, 2013 BURGESS: Carrying fellow soldiers off the battlefield and forever in your heart FROM 1 THE SHERIDAN PRESS HANNAH WIEST An old trunk belonging to the late Henry A. Burgess now belongs to his wife, Mary Burgess. It is filled with items from her family’s times of service during World War I and World War II. Her dad returned safely from his station in the Philippines after World War II. He died two weeks later of a cerebral hemorrhage when Burgess was 25 years old. “I can only compensate it by saying he told me everything about life that I should really know,” Burgess said. “Laugh at yourself. Don’t take yourself too seriously. Whatever you take or do or anything, stay in control of it. Don’t ever let it control you. Good things.” • American Red Cross uniform From 1942 to 1945, Burgess wore her own uniform as a volunteer for the American Red Cross — first in England, then all over the European continent. She worked in a “clubmobile,” a specially equipped truck in which Red Cross girls made donuts and coffee and serve soldiers a few moments of comfort through a smile, a warm conversation, a dance. About six weeks after D-Day, Burgess and the other American Red Cross girls landed on Omaha Beach in France. They camouflaged their clubmobile and stayed in tents with foxholes dug feet from the door, moving nine times in five weeks to stay just behind the front line. • Khaki spats When Burgess looks at her spats — khaki leggings that snapped over her brown leather boots, slick-soled and creased with years of wear — she smiles a smile full of the remembrance of adventure. “When we were on the continent, we hardly ever got out of our trousers and into a skirt,” Burgess said. The spats protected her trousers and boots, but when she and the other girls really had to wash their clothes while on the move, they filled a bucket with kerosene and dipped their clothes in to make them “clean.” • Nurse’s uniform “Daddy, brother Ralston and I were in the service, so mother joined the volunteer Health Aides at Walter Reed in D.C.,” Burgess said. She wore her white shirt and pale denim jumper while taking temperatures and changing bedpans. “She was so proud to be in uniform like her husband, son and daughter,” Burgess said. • Pieces of parachutes Mary Burgess and Henry Burgess were dating before World War II began. She went to Europe with the American Red Cross, and he went to the Pacific front. They didn’t see each other for more than three years while the war raged on. They were married shortly after their return. Henry Burgess was a paratrooper. He was stationed in Okinawa, ready to invade Japan, when the atomic bomb fell on Hiroshima and Nagasaki. “I think that bomb is the only reason he stayed alive because he didn’t have to attack Japan,” Burgess said. The trunk contains several pieces of parachute, some camouflage, some white. Burgess said she often contemplated making a dress out of all those silky pieces of cloth – but she never did. • An American flag Folded 13 times into the shape of a tricornered hat, the wool flag was always flown by the Hayden family — and later the Burgess family — on the proper days. It would fly today. • A white uniform with pins on the pocket There is a lieutenant pin, a France flag pin and a pin in the shape of a red cross fastened to the pocket of a white uniform jacket in the trunk. The pins belong to her family, Burgess said. The jacket does not. It is too big, and she doesn’t know to whom it does belong — or did belong. But, that jacket is part of her trunk of relics, and Burgess treasures it, too. Sometimes war means carrying a fellow soldier off the battlefield, and it always means carrying them back home in the Encana building water plant RIVERTON (AP) — Encana is constructing a facility in central Wyoming that will treat up to 1 million gallons of water a day that comes with oil and gas production. Encana says the facility between Casper and Riverton is the third largest of its kind in the world. It partnered with GE and Dow on the facility and held a groundbreaking ceremony on Friday. Officials say the water treatment plant will effectively clean produced field water to about the same purity as mountain spring water. Some of the cleaned water will be used for field operations, while the rest will be piped into Boysen Reservoir. Frequent tests will be conducted at the facility and discharge points, to assure water quality meets state requirements. The plant is scheduled to begin treating water next summer. TODAY IN HISTORY | FROM THE SHERIDAN PRESS 1988 — A report that Black Hills State college has increased its Wyoming student enrollment by 48 percent is not cause for concern, according to Sheridan College president Stephen Maier and Executive Director of the Wyoming Community College Commission James R. Randolph. 2003 — The search is on for a name for the new middle/junior high school being built just behind the current Sheridan Junior High School. School District 2 trustees voted Monday night to allow Sheridan County residents to submit suggestions for naming the new school for grades six, seven and eight, slated to open for the 2005-06 academic year. 2008 — The Sheridan High School football season ended Saturday with a 44-28 loss to Green River in the Class 5A state semifinals at Homer Scott Field. However, the Broncs’ 9-2 record marked the school’s best football season since 1993, when it went 9-1 and won the Class 4A state championship. THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Today's Highlight in History: On Nov. 11, 1918, fighting in World War I came to an end with the signing of an armistice between the Allies and Germany. On this date: Ten years ago: In Galveston, Texas, millionaire Robert Durst was found not guilty of murdering Morris Black, an elderly neighbor who Durst said he'd killed accidentally. Toronto's Roy Halladay won the American League Cy Young Award. Five years ago: President George W. Bush marked his last Veterans Day as president at a New York pier, speaking to a crowd of thousands gathered for the rededication of the USS Intrepid Sea, Air and Space Museum. San Francisco's Tim Lincecum won the National League Cy Young Award. One year ago: A Florida woman identified as the recipient of harassing emails from David Petraeus' girlfriend acknowledged her friendship with the former CIA director. Jill Kelley, an unpaid social liaison to MacDill Air Force Base in Tampa, said she and her family had been friends with Petraeus and his family for more than five years. Thought for Today: "Old myths, old gods, old heroes have never died. They are only sleeping at the bottom of our mind, waiting for our call. We have need for them. They represent the wisdom of our race." — Stanley Kunitz, American poet laureate (1905-2006).In Galveston, Texas, millionaire SPORTS MONDAY, NOVEMBER 11, 2013 www.thesheridanpress.com NCAA places Chadron State football on three years probation CHADRON, Neb. (AP) — The NCAA put Chadron State on three years of probation and vacated 15 wins over two seasons Wednesday after determining its former football coach had secret bank accounts and extra benefits for players at the Division II school. The Eagles did not lose any scholarships and will not be banned from the playoffs. "We're pleased to have a decision from the NCAA and now we can continue to ensure Eagle athletics remains the strong program it already is," school president Randy Rhine said. "I have confidence in our coaching staff and athletic administration to lead us forward." The NCAA's report ended a two-year ordeal for the western Nebraska school that produced one of Division II's alltime greats in San Diego Chargers running back Danny Woodhead. Bill O'Boyle was abruptly relieved of his coaching duties in October 2011 after the school discovered irregularities in fundraising. Brad Smith, athletic director at the time and the coach before O'Boyle, returned to the sideline on an interim basis but later was found to have been involved in violations as well. O'Boyle now is the offensive line coach at Southern Illinois and Smith is retired. O'Boyle said he believes information that could have helped his defense was not considered during the investigation. He declined to elaborate. "I'll support their decision," O'Boyle said. "But do I agree? There are a lot of things they missed that I'm disappointed in. But I'm going to accept what they came up with. According to the Division II Committee on Infractions' report, in 2009 O'Boyle opened a private bank account for proceeds from the football program's golf tournaments.

Wyo. loses to No. 17 Fresno State 48-10 LARAMIE (AP) — In a showdown between high-scoring Mountain West Conference offenses, Wyoming found out it isn’t in the same league as No. 17 Fresno State. The Cowboys gained only 82 yards in the second half and Fresno State scored 48 unanswered points for a 48-10 victory Saturday night. “Our execution wasn’t at the level we needed,” Wyoming coach Dave Christensen said. “I thought in the first half there were times when we moved the ball, and then we came out in the second half and just sputtered.” Derek Carr threw for 366 yards and four touchdowns, and Josh Quezada rushed for 105 yards to lead the Bulldogs (9-0, 6-0 Mountain West). Wyoming (4-5, 2-3) is 0-15 against ranked teams under Christensen, in his fifth year as head coach, and hasn’t beaten a Top 25 opponent since 2002, when the Cowboys defeated No. 24 Air Force 3426. Wyoming’s offense, which ranked second to the Bulldogs in the conference with an average of 516.2 yards coming in, was held to a season-low 296. The Cowboys were averaging 36.5 points until Saturday night. Carr completed 33 of 46 passes with no interceptions before being pulled for the night with 9:45 left and the game well in hand. He has gone 229 pass attempts without an interception. Quezada had his second consecutive (and second career) 100-yard game on 16 carries. Brett Smith led the Cowboys, completing 18 of 32 passes for 141 yards and a touchdown. His 153 total yards were well below his average of 349.8. Running back Tedder Easton gained 90 yards. The game pitted the top two offenses in the Mountain West against each other. Wyoming got the better of the Bulldogs early, grabbing a 10-0 lead. Smith connected with Shaun Wick on a 2yard TD pass, which was set up by Easton’s 79-yard run through the middle of the Bulldogs’ defense, for the only score of the first quarter. Easton said he made a cut near the line of scrimmage and “looked down the field and no one was there.” He was caught at the 2-yard line. “I was hoping I was fast enough to get there,” he said. “This time I wasn’t, but it felt good to get there.” It was the first time this season Fresno State had been shut out in the opening period. Stuart Williams added a 27-yard field goal for the Cowboys early in the second. “They came out with a lot of energy,” Carr said. “Coach hit it on the head: We’re going to get everybody’s best game. They came out with so much energy and so much passion. We had to take our passion and energy to another level.” Carr got Fresno State both passion and points with back-to-back touchdown drives of 75 and 73 yards — the first ending with a 9-yard TD pass to Marcel Jensen and the second on a 19-yard scoring strike to Isiah Burse. They were the first scores of a 48-0 surge by the Bulldogs, who ended the game with 600 total yards on offense. Fresno State has gained more than 500 yards in seven games and at least 600 four times this season. Carr connected once more with Jensen on a 2-yard TD pass and with Davante Adams for a 9-yard score. Josh Harper caught nine passes for 159 yards. “The game started out the way we wanted it to,” Christensen said, citing a lack of execution by his team. “The first half was exactly as we envisioned it. Obviously the second half wasn’t.” Christensen fired his defensive coordinator last week after Wyoming allowed more than 50 points in its previous two games — both losses — and hired veteran defensive coach Bill Young to help for the remainder of the season. Broncos roll Chargers as Manning hurts ankle SAN DIEGO (AP) — Peyton Manning and the rest of the Denver Broncos will present a game ball to John Fox as soon as the coach rejoins them after recovering from heart surgery. “We look forward to giving it to him in person,” Manning said after the Broncos beat the San Diego Chargers, 28-20, on Sunday in their first game since Fox had his aortic valve replaced. Fox was released from the hospital Friday and will continue his recovery at his offseason home in Charlotte, N.C. With interim coach Jack Del Rio in charge, Manning threw for 330 yards and four touchdowns, three to Demaryius Thomas. Manning said he spoke with Fox by phone on Saturday before the Broncos flew to San Diego. “I told him not to be yelling at me during the game. It’s not good for his blood pressure,” Manning said. “I’m not sure we’ll see if he did or didn’t. But he was in our thoughts. Coach Del Rio has done a good job all week keeping us updated on coach Fox.” Fox planned to watch the game on TV, a team spokesman said. If he watched, he probably didn’t like seeing Manning hurting his right ankle when he was hit by Corey Liuget as the Broncos ran out the clock in the closing minutes. Manning stayed in the game. Manning wouldn’t be specific about his injury, but said he was “pretty sore” and that he planned to have an MRI on Monday. Manning was hurt after completing a pass to Thomas with 1:44 left. Manning kept the Broncos (8-1) rolling. He threw touchdown passes of 11, 7 and 34 yards to Thomas on consecutive drives spanning the second and third quarters, staking the Broncos to a 28-6 lead. The Chargers (4-5) closed the gap late in the second half but couldn’t catch up. SHERIDAN — The Sheridan College Lady Generals basketball team suffered their first defeat of the 2013-14 season Saturday at Casper. The Lady Generals (4-1) led 34-32 at halftime, but fell 72-61 to host Casper College. The game was a non-conference matchup, as was the Lady Generals win Friday over Gillette. Sophomore Madison Forney led the Lady Generals with 14 points. Casper’s Kendyl Nunn scored 30 points. The Lady Generals are home this weekend for a tournament Friday and Saturday. Jaguars taste first sweet victory THE ASSOCIATED PRESS At some point, even if they won’t admit it, Gus Bradley and his Jacksonville Jaguars must have wondered if a victory would come this season. They can stop wondering. Maurice Jones-Drew and Jordan Todman each ran for a touchdown, and the Jaguars held off the Tennessee Titans 29-27 Sunday. The Jaguars (1-8) scored the most points in a game this season for first-year coach Bradley. They never trailed and forced four turnovers they turned into 17 points. “What I’m excited about is that we improved in many areas,” Bradley said. “On my call sheet I was writing down things that were really good that were happening during the game. They just kept piling up. I thought, ‘this is how it feels.’” Feels pretty good, doesn’t it? “It’s definitely a great feeling,” Jaguars quarterback Chad Henne said. Baltimore looks to build on its thrilling 20-17 overtime win against Cincinnati, which came only after the defending Super Bowl champions blew a 17-0 lead and allowed a 51-yard desperation TD pass on the final play of regulation. Justin Tucker made a 46-yard field goal to win it. The Ravens (4-5) broke a three-game slide and are back in the AFC North race.

Returning starter Riley Grabau made 4 of 6 from beyond the arc - all in the first half - en route to a career-high 17 points while freshman Trey Washington III and transfer Charles Hankerson Jr. each added 14 points for the Cowboys (1-0). Larry Nance Jr. collected 10 points, 12 rebounds and two blocks for Wyoming. Dee Oldham had 15 points, Marshun Newell added 14 and Terence Smith 10 for UT-Martin (0-1). Washington said afterward that he had the jitters, but it didn't look that way as he hit his first three shots, all from 3-point range. "Man, I was nervous as ever. I didn't know what to do," he said. "I forgot about every play called in the book. But after the first 3 went in, I relaxed and I just played basketball." Wyoming sank 6 of its first 8 shots, including a pair of 3s by Grabau, to race a 17-6 lead. UT-Martin came back to go up 20-19, sparked by Dee Oldham, who scored 11 points off the bench during a 14-2 run. At one point the Skyhawks scored nine straight, prompting Cowboys coach Larry Shyatt to employ a rare zone defense. "We played more zone tonight than I might've played in 40 years in my career, and we kept out of foul trouble doing it," Shyatt said. New rules cracking down on fouls will force teams to adjust, he said, but added that the Cowboys will certainly adjust. The Skyhawks took a 32-30 lead with 4:30 left in the first half, but the Cowboys ended the period on a 15-1 surge to go up 45-33. Derek Cooke Jr. had two dunks and Grabau added two 3s during the spurt. UT-Martin never got closer than 11 in the second half. Oldham's 3-pointer cut the margin to 53-42 with 13:22 remaining, but the Cowboys started going to the free throw line to build the lead to 18 and were never threatened down the stretch. "I thought their length really bothered us, because they were able to contest every shot and get every rebound," UT-Martin coach Jason James said. "And I thought we struggled trying to get shots in the paint. We had to settle for long range." Wyoming saw six players with 20 minutes or more and appears to have more depth than last season. "We're really comfortable with 10 guys right now," Shyatt said. "The problem right now is the two most mature players (Hankerson and Jerron Granberry) haven't played in a while and we're going to have to let them get the kinks out." Hankerson sat out last season after transferring and Granberry played only five games for North Florida before being excused from the team following the death of his father and didn't play again. He was granted a hardship waiver and has one season of eligibility for the Cowboys. He had three points and three rebounds in his first game for Wyoming. CHADRON: Probation lasts until 2016 FROM B1 He used the account for football and personal expenses, including paying a traffic ticket. He also used two other outside accounts to pay concession workers and for recruiting expenses. When questioned by school officials, O'Boyle didn't reveal the location of the golf tournament money and the existence of the outside bank accounts. The NCAA said Smith attended the football fundraisers but failed to monitor and adequately track the approximately $30,000 raised by the golf tournaments. O'Boyle also gave an athlete $150 to settle a school bill and another $100 to an athlete so he could purchase health insurance. The committee said O'Boyle should have known he violated rules by giving money to athletes. The Eagles also were penalized for using an ineligible player in 2011. Chadron State's probation runs until November 2016, its six wins in 2011 and nine wins in 2012 have been forfeited, and the school has been fined $5,000. The NCAA also placed O'Boyle and Smith under two-year show cause orders. For O'Boyle, that means he's not allowed to have access to any money that comes in through football camps or fundraising at SIU. He also must pay his own way to a regional rules seminar and will be monitored by the SIU athletic department. For Smith, his athletically related duties will be restricted if he works again at an NCAA school. Chadron State already had selfimposed a reduction of paid official recruiting visits, from 75 to 60, for the 2013-14 academic year. The school also limited the number of coaches who recruit off-campus. COLLEGE FOOTBALL BRIEFS | Eastern Washington beats Montana State 54-29 CHENEY, Wash. (AP) — Vernon Adams threw four touchdown passes and ran for another score as Eastern Washington defeated Montana State 5429 on Saturday to take a major step toward the Big Sky Conference championship. The Eagles (8-2, 6-0) notched the program's 500th victory in defeating the Bobcats (7-3, 5-1). It was the first Big Sky matchup of FCS top-five teams since 1994. EWU scored on all eight of its possessions, not counting when the Eagles were taking a knee at the end. Adams now has 38 touchdown passes to break the school record and ranks second in Big Sky history. He was an efficient 16 of 18, including a scoring throws of 76, 68 and 17 yards to Shaquille Hill. Hill finished with a career-high 172 receiving yards. "Vernon was special and the receivers were special," EWU head coach Beau Baldwin said. "I didn't realize (Vernon) had just two incompletions -- that is impressive. That is just the type of player he is. He keeps getting better, and he keeps working at it." Quincy Forte's 25-yard scoring run with 1:28 left in the first half gave EWU the lead for good at 26-21. Forte rushed for a career-high 123 yards and two scores. "The offensive line did a great job, and we added a running game that I think surprised Montana State," Baldwin said. MSU closed to 40-29 early in the fourth quarter on DeNarius McGhee's 2-yard run. Three plays after the ensuing kickoff, Adams responded with his 76-yard TD bomb to Hill, who caught the ball in stride and scored easily. That gave the Eagles a 47-29 lead with 11:57 remaining. The Bobcats came up empty on their next drive, giving up the ball on downs. Anthony Vitto entered at quarterback for EWU, with Adams on the sideline with cramps. Vitto led a 71-yard drive that was capped with his 36-yard touchdown pass to Cooper Kupp to end the scoring. That gave Kupp, a redshirt freshman, a touchdown catch in all 10 EWU games this season. Montana scores late to edge South Dakota 31-27 VERMILLION, S.D. (AP) — Ellis Henderson returned a kickoff 98 yards for a touchdown with 1:36 to play as Montana rallied to beat South Dakota 31-27 on Saturday. Henderson scored three touchdowns, including two receiving for the Grizzlies. He also caught TD passes of 6 and 71 yards. Henderson's long kickoff return helped Montana survive a late South Dakota score. "It's a heartache, that's for sure," said South Dakota coach Joe Glenn, who led Montana to a national title in 2001. "We just can't fold our tent like that. What do you say when they run (a fumble) in for a touchdown then we kick it to their best player and we don't even touch him. We're not even close." With South Dakota up 24-17, Jordan Tripp forced a fumble that was returned 35 yards by Matt Hermanson for a touchdown with 6:33 remaining in the game. A 38-yard field goal from Miles Bergner with 1:48 left gave the Coyotes (4-6) a 27-24 lead, but then Henderson's kickoff return gave the lead back to the Grizzlies (8-2). South Dakota had one final opportunity, driving 44 yards to the Montana 31yard line before Bo Tully broke up a pass intended for Josh Vander Maten and the Coyotes turned the ball over on downs. Jordan Johnson had 337 yards passing and two touchdowns, highlighted by the 71-yard strike to Henderson in the first half. Montana has beaten South Dakota four straight times. The Coyotes, whose last win in the series was 1974, have lost three straight games. MONDAY, NOVEMBER 11, 2013 BABY BLUES® by Jerry Scott and Rick Kirkman COMICS www.thesheridanpress.com THE SHERIDAN PRESS DRS. OZ & ROIZEN B3 Dr. Mehmet Oz and Dr. Michael Roizen MARY WORTH by Karen Moy and Joe Giella BORN LOSER® by Art and Chip Sansom The 2013 pizza-eating champion, Molly Schuyler, downed 12.9 cheesy slices in 10 minutes. But that's definitely not what we're suggesting when we encourage you to learn how to feel full faster! Feeling satiated after eating involves your guts, brain and attitude. And when you eat too fast, too much or tooprocessed foods (anything with the Five Food Felons -trans and saturated fats, added sugars and sugar syrups, and any grain that isn't 100 percent whole), your body can't tell when you've had enough. You need to give your appetite-regulating systems (and emotions) a chance to react to what you eat. Savor the flavor. Put your fork down between bites; chew your food slowly. That releases more nutrition from the food and lets leptin, your appetite-controlling hormone, respond so you eat less. Almost a century ago, "the Great Masticator" Horace Fletcher advocated 100 chews per bite. We say, depending on the food, chew around 10-20 times. Just say "NUTS." Twenty minutes before a meal eat six walnuts or 12 almonds. They contain 70 calories of fat, and that'll slow your stomach emptying, so you'll feel full sooner. Practice mindful eating. Notice the texture and flavor of each bite and how your body responds to food; place yourself in a calm (no TV) environment. That helps control cravings and impulse eating. It also improves the digestive process that goes on in your mouth! Experiment with this for one week; we're sure you'll eat less, feel fuller faster and enjoy mealtime a lot more! DEAR ABBY Pauline Phillips and Jeanne Phillips GARFIELD by Jim Davis FRANK & ERNEST® by Bob Thaves REX MORGAN, M.D. by Woody Wilson and Tony DiPreta ZITS® by Jerry Scott and Jim Borgman DILBERT by S. Adams ALLEY OOP® by Dave Graue and Jack Bender DOGS RUNNING LOOSE ARE NOT THE ONLY ONES AT RISK DEAR ABBY: My daughter "Jenny," her husband, "Bob," and their three dogs live with my husband and me in our home. We live on a fairly busy road. The dogs used to always be leashed when they were taken out. They have now made a habit of letting the dogs out without leashes. This frightens me. Not only am I concerned about one of the dogs getting hit by a car, but also any legal ramifications if they cause damage to others. I have spoken to my daughter about it, but nothing has changed. Abby, what can we do to make Jenny and Bob responsible for any damages incurred by their actions? One last note -- one of their dogs WAS hit by a car and had a long, painful recovery with a very expensive vet bill. -- OUT OF IDEAS IN CONNECTICUT DEAR OUT OF IDEAS: You have a right to be concerned. Contact your attorney and your insurance broker to find out what the fallout could be for you as homeowners because of your daughter and son-in-law's laziness and carelessness. Responsible dog owners keep their pets leashed so they won't be hurt by running into traffic or biting a child or an adult they don't recognize as a friend. If your daughter and S.I.L. can't abide by your wishes and behave responsibly, they shouldn't be living under your roof. P.S. This isn't just about the dogs and liability; it's also about respect for you. DEAR ABBY: A couple of years ago, my extended family found a fun, all-inclusive solution to the grumbling (and expense) of preparing the holiday meal. Each family is assigned a portion of the meal they are going to prepare. For fun, it has to be a recipe that has never been tried before so no one can fret that it isn't made like Grandma used to make it. The person holding the party coordinates kitchen time, but to be honest, everybody enjoys helping each other out, and the cooks spend most of their time chatting. We have tried wonderful variations to the traditional turkey, enjoyed an awesome pie straight from the Renaissance, and learned that we will never again try oyster stuffing. Because the recipes are untried, no one feels bad if the dish isn't perfect, and we have tried things we were surprised we liked. Most important, we do it together and spend the day laughing, talking and catching up, and no one has to be a slave to the day. Hope this will give other people ideas. -SCOTT IN BALTIMORE DEAR SCOTT: So do I, because your family has captured the true spirit of the holiday season, which is too often lost because of the pressure people put on themselves to achieve perfection. DEAR ABBY: My husband and his sister had a falling out after their parents died and haven't spoken for a few years. My husband is very stubborn and holds grudges. He is very ill now. I have asked him if he wants to tell his sister about his illness, and he says no. I'm not sure how much longer he has left. I am thinking about going against his wishes and calling her in the hopes that they can make peace. Your thoughts? -- NOT MUCH TIME LEFT DEAR NOT MUCH TIME LEFT: Depending upon how deep the rift between them is, I do think you should make a confidential phone call and tell her it might be a good idea to call her brother. If she does, the conversation could be healing for both of them. However, if she chooses to ignore the situation, the choice will have been hers, and no harm will have been done. DEAR READERS: Today, Veterans Day, I would like to thank not only all of you who have honorably served our country, but also those men and women who are on active duty for your service as well. I salute each and every one of you. -- ABBY Dear Abby is written by Abigail Van Buren, also known as Jeanne Phillips, and was founded by her mother, Pauline Phillips.

Hints from Heloise VETERAN HELP Dear Readers: Here is this week's SOUND ON, about supporting our veterans. "Dear Heloise: Do you know any ways I can support our veterans? I am looking for a way to help. -- Josh in Colorado" Thank you for asking! There are many, many groups that help our veterans. In fact, too many to list here. You can call the chapter of the Veterans of Foreign Wars in your area for ideas on how you can help. It may be volunteering, donations -- there are a thousand ways to help our vets! Here is just one you might consider, which I have written about for more than 15 years: The Veterans' National Stamp and Coin Club is a wonderful organization! They collect U.S. and foreign stamps and coins, postcards, sports cards and much more! This group then passes the items on to other Veterans Affairs support centers across the nation! The stamps and coins, etc., are supplied for therapeutic use helping veterans. Send donations to: Department of Veterans Af- fairs Medical Center Veterans' National Stamp and Coin Club No. 135 S.C. 3601 S. 6th Ave. Tucson, AZ 85723 You also can check to see if your city's VA office needs help or donations. Thank you for wanting to support our veterans. They need all the help we can give them, and anything you or my readers can do will be a wonderful way to say thank you to all of the veterans who sacrificed so much to keep us safe. And, don't forget to say "thank you" in person to the military personnel in uniform, or retired, when you get a chance. -- Heloise SEND A GREAT HINT TO: Heloise P.O.

Heloise * Make the spindle on your sewing machine taller to hold thread. * Hull strawberries with one. * Straighten flower stems. -- Heloise BOX-TOP FOLLOW-UP Dear Heloise: I understand your frustration with the placement of box tops on products. In my time as a school box-top coordinator, I learned they place the box tops such that people can't rip them off in the store without buying the product. -- Amy, via email Thanks to you and all of the others who wrote about this. Sorry, but I just never would have thought about ripping off (really ripping off!) box tops! I would love to hear from grocery-store managers if this happens a lot. If so, what can my readers do to help? -- Heloise RINSE AND DRAIN Dear Heloise: Whenever I am opening a can of beans, I poke a few holes in the bottom with an ice pick. I then open the top of the can all the way and hold it under the running water. The water drains straight through and rinses the contents. -Shirley in Tennessee Bridge THE BEST BOOKS OF THIS YEAR As we approach the holiday season, let's look at some of the books published this year that might appeal to the bridge players on your gift list. Some whodunits with a bridge theme have been written. The best so far, in my opinion, is "Death in Duplicate" by Carole Coplea (Master Point Press). Two deaths occur during a duplicate at Kensington College in the Adirondacks, and the book covers the investigation. Today's diagram shows the only bridge deal in the book. If this layout occurred during, say, an 11-table duplicate, there would no doubt be 11 different auctions. Here, in particular, East's double Phillip Alder was bizarre after hearing her partner raise diamonds. Note that East would have made five diamonds if she had guessed spades correctly. After West led a low heart, South, a student at the college, called for dummy's 10, and East ruffed. She then cashed the spade ace: six, three, five. East, not guessing that the three was West's top spade spot, shifted to a diamond. Declarer won with his ace and ran all of his trumps, bringing everyone down to three cards. North had the heart ace-queen-jack and South the spade queennine and heart three. But what could West keep? He was squeezed. www.thesheridanpress.com Omarr’s Daily Astrological Forecast BIRTHDAY GAL: Actress Cote de Pablo was born in Santiago, Chile, today in 1979. This birthday gal, born Maria Jose de Pablo Fernandez, has co-starred as Ziva David on the hit series "NCIS" since 2005, but is reportedly leaving the series sometime during its 11th season. On the big screen, de Pablo co-starred with Kris Kristofferson in the 2010 Western "The Last Rites of Ransom Pride." ARIES (March 21-April 19): The busiest bees make the best honey. You're better at business negotiations than you think. You know whom to ask when you need an honest appraisal or advice. You can easily get out of a sticky situation. TAURUS (April 20-May 20): If a $20 bill appears on the sidewalk, pick it up. Don't pass up opportunities or ignore praise. You can make helpful connections while attending business or community functions. GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Bang your own drum loudly. Someone is willing to do you a favor, so ask. Promote your own interests and try to get signatures on the dotted line while your charm and luck are at a high point. CANCER (June 21-July 22): Polish an already sterling reputation. You are known as someone who faithfully fulfills promises and uses sound judgment. Accept an opportunity to put plans into motion and receive helpful feedback. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Good will is sharable; others support your interests. Those with whom you do business are looking for a long and honorable relationship. Be confident that promises made today will be faithfully honored. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Grab the day by the tiller. Put the finishing touches on agreements and contracts and launch crucial enterprises. Someone may offer you the key information that puts the wind in your sails. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Exert extra effort to be sympathetic and generous. Ignore the little voice that urges you to be selfish about mere possessions. Your stamina and ability to cope with emergencies may be tested for a few days. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): The best things in life come to you when you accept a chance opportunity. You wish life could be like the lyrics of a song and you could earn "money for nothing," but you know the best checks are the rewards of hard work. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Get the wagon train back on the trail and head bravely for your destination. This might be a good time to ask for a raise or promotion. You're likely to receive what- Jeraldine Saunders ever you truly deserve and need. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Think on your feet. You're running as fast as you can to stay on top of things, but life might feel like a treadmill right now. Take time to socialize and relieve the burden of myriad obligations by meeting new people. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): You seem that someone close is laboring hard to avoid criticism and may wonder if this can happen to you. No one will have a reason to rs to e t t e A lll m u s tbe , ay ta S a n d by Frid th ive e c er13 e b r m D ece Seeing the need to retain three hearts, West was forced to discard the spade king, hoping his partner had the queen. South now produced that card and claimed his contract for plus 550 and a top. Master Point Press books are available from the publisher in printed and e-book editions. take you down a notch if you keep your promises. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): When you land in the public eye, people pick up binoculars to look more closely. Be an active participant rather than watching from the sidelines. You may earn some unexpected praise or admiration. IF NOVEMBER 12 IS YOUR BIRTHDAY: The next few weeks will offer a plethora of fresh opportunities and a chance to make lasting improvements. Lady Luck will smile on you, but during December and early January it's wise to fulfill your obligations and avoid taking on fresh ones. The boss is unlikely to grant favors and people in general may be very critical of your performance. If you're diligent and responsible you'll emerge feeling more confident of your ability to handle challenges. During February, make no significant changes, but go ahead and take a relaxing vacation while you're in a romantic mood.

As they grow, the shell grows, too. Jeff Schinkel, Graphics Vol. 29, No. 49 Are yyou an eagle-eyed reader? Circl Circle the seven errors in the articl article below. Then, rewrite it corre correctly. Snails don’t live just in gardens. They can also be found in ponds and even in the ocean. They are related to oysters, clams and even octopuses. They are part of the group of animals with soft bodies known as mollusks. Whi snails are considered While destr destructive pests to almost ever everyone with a garden, in in th they’re natural envi environment they perform an im important function. Snai Snails feed on decaying plan plants, recycling them and creating nutritious new soil for a knew generation of plant life. Most snails that destroy our prized petunias come to our gardens as silent, slimey stowaways. Hiding under a leave of a plant sold in garden centers, shiped from other parts of the world, snails arrive and thrive in home gerdens just about everywear. A snail’s eyes are at the end of its long tentacles. The short tentacles are for smelling. Snails slide along the flat part of their body, called the “foot.” Snails make a trail of silvery slime. This helps them to slide up walls and even crawl upside down. Snails breathe through a hole near their shell. If the weather turns very cold or very dry, a snail pulls into its shell and waits for the cool, damp weather it loves. It fills up the opening of its shell with a mucus-like slime, that hardens into a snug door. How many snails can you find on this page? Help this snail find its way to the Snail Motel. You can make a comfy motel and invite some snails for a visit. Look for snail visitors under rocks and leaves. Circle one snail on this page each time you read 2 column inches of the newspaper. Can you circle all of the snails before the week is out? 1. Partially fill a large jar with moist soil. 2. Add a piece of chalk, some leaves, grass, and chunks of bark. End 3. Give the snails lettuce and cabbage leaves to eat. 4. Keep the jar covered with a piece of nylon stocking or window screen. 5. Keep the Snail Motel in a shady place. Standards Link: Reading Comprehension: Read for a variety of purposes. The snail has a latin name that means “a belly-footed animal.” Use the code to find out what this name is. A= D= F = G= H= N= O= P = R = S = T = U= 6. Twice a week replace the old soil and food. Standards Links: Reading Comprehension: Follow multiple-step written directions Draw a circle on a large piece of paper. Draw a small circle inside the 17 + 6 + 9 large circle. Put two snails or more in the small circle and watch to see which one slides out to the large circle first. 28 - 6 + 12 Do the math to see which snail will win the race.

Veterans Day: Events, ceremonies around nation THE ASSOCIATED PRESS NEW YORK: WOMEN IN SERVICE The U.S. military’s first female four-star general will be a grand marshal at New York City’s Veterans Day Parade.

The commemoration will include a wreath-laying ceremony at the Eternal Light Monument in Madison Square Park. WASHINGTON, D.C.: TUSKEGEE AIRMEN The District of Columbia will honor two of the original Tuskegee Airmen with the Congressional Gold Medal for Veterans Day. Washington Mayor Vincent Gray and congressional delegate Eleanor Holmes Norton will lay a wreath at the African American Civil War Memorial. A commemoration will follow for two Tuskegee Airmen who are D.C. residents at the African American Civil War Museum. The Tuskegee Airmen were a group of African-American pilots in World War II. VIRGINIA: ARLINGTON NATIONAL CEMETERY President Barack Obama plans the annual wreath-laying at Arlington National Cemetery and will deliver remarks. Obama said in his Veterans Day proclamation that the country’s obligations to those who have served “endure long after the battle ends.” He said their courage, self-sacrifice and devotion represent the American character at its best and he encouraged everyone to honor every service member who has ever worn the country’s uniforms.
