retention for
local judges
Documents indicate
tribal chairman may
have misused fed cash
From staff reports
Shoshone leader says action was appropriate
All three judges in Fremont
County who face retention votes
this year are favored to keep their
gavels by polled attorneys, according to a survey released Tuesday by
the Wyoming State Bar.
District court judge Norman
Young and circuit court judge
Robert Denhardt were both favored for retention by 88 percent of
polled attorneys — an above-average rating.
The 11 circuit court judges up
for retention had an average
approval rating of 84 percent.
The seven district court judges
were approved by an average of
80.1 percent of attorneys.
Ethical, but prickly
District court judge Marvin
Tyler, who hears cases in the county on a part-time basis via teleconference, is also up for retention; his
approval rating was slightly below
average, but he is still favored by
79 percent of attorneys to be
retained.
injunction will be issued.
When the Shoshone Business
Council issued lay-off letters Sept.
30 to employees of the shared tribal court, council members indicated that the expiration of a federal
contract meant funding was no
longer available and that the court
system would be shut down.
However, just three days prior,
the SBC collected $403,694 in federal funds specifically earmarked
for operation of tribal court,
according to bank statements
obtained by The Ranger.
In a Saturday statement, St.
Clair denied any improper use of
the funds and said the transfers
were made to reimburse the tribe
for its previous months of funding
the tribal court, the Fish and Game
Program and Tribal Water
Engineer.
“SBC took action to guarantee
Shoshone funds used for joint programs were paid back and so federal funds were safe-guarded and
accounted for,” St. Clair said.
“All federal funds are audited,
and we expect no issues when we
close out the three grants that were
awarded to the SBC on behalf of
joint.”
After taking over the responsibility of making payroll in July, the
SBC did make payments with its
own funds for approximately two
and half months.
‘We expect no issues’
Nearly $1 million
Top marks
On specific questions about
judicial behavior, Young and
Denhardt scored above average on
nearly every challenge.
The high praise did come with a
few exceptions.
Sixteen percent of attorneys
expressed some concern that
Young’s decisions weren’t clearly
expressed and reasoned. He has sat
on the bench since 2003 and had
been the elected Fremont County
Attorney for a decade prior.
Denhardt, who was appointed
in 1983, earned some detractors
for his knowledge of law, as well as
his application of rules and procedures.

Using 16 transactions — all on
Sept. 9 — the tribe also had drawn
down $989,614 in federal funds
for the tribal court into a bank
account called “Shoshone &
Arapahoe Tribes Tribal Court,”
which was solely controlled by the
Eastern Shoshone Tribe.
These collected funds — distributed as part of self-determination
contracts — are not allowed under
federal law to be used for any other
purpose than for operation of tribal court.
However, SBC chairman Darwin St. Clair transferred $989,500
on Sept. 13 from the “tribal court”
account to the Eastern Shoshone’s
general fund, known as the “15
percent account.”
That transfer also took place a
day before a federal hearing in
which a judge weighed whether to
force the Bureau of Indian Affairs
to intervene with the SBC’s unilateral control of joint programs and
their finances.
Though he could have issued a
ruling from the bench, as of
Saturday judge Brian Morris still
had not announced whether that
Actual costs
However, a source familiar with
the financials of self-determination
programs confirmed that the tribal
court typically costs between
$105,000 and $108,000 each
month, Fish and Game costs
between $21,000 and $25,000,
and TWE costs between $6,000
and $7,000.
Those figures suggest that even
if St. Clair rationalized the bank
transfer as a reimbursement of the
tribe’s costs, his total expenditures
would have been only about
1/10th the $1.4 million the SBC
received in September for funding
the court.
Furthermore, the tribal court
contract issued last year explicitly
states that its funds “shall not be
transferred to tribal accounts, lent

New sound in town: Out with the old siren, in with the new
By Alejandra Silva
Staff Writer
A different alarm sound is being heard throughout Riverton now that an old siren atop the old City
Hall building downtown has been replaced by a new
one a few feet away on Washington Avenue.

Last year, the abandoned City Hall, built in 1919
but abandoned for decades, was sold Doug Maulik.
The sale came with a stipulation that the Riverton
Fire District, the former owners of the building, had
one year to remove the siren.
Maulik said he has no set plan for the vacant
building, although it has potential for office space.
The volume of the new siren will help determine
what the building will be used for, he added.
“With the old siren, the sound is unbearably loud
from the inside,” Maulik said.
There are plans to remove asbestos found in the
structure. Eventually, Maulik said, he’ll install new
flooring, insulation and improve the heating system.
He also recently trimmed the trees and shrubs for
curb appeal.
“I think it will fix up pretty nice,” Maulik said.
New siren
The new siren came just in time for noting Fire
Prevention Week in Fremont County. An open
house, filled with children’s activities and demonstrations took place Wednesday at the new Riverton Fire
Station at 404 South Broadway Avenue.
Ashley Powell, President of the RFD commission,
said the district plans to offer the old siren to the
Riverton Museum.
“Maybe the museum might want it. If not, we
don’t know what we’ll do with it,” Powell said.
The city was considering placing the new siren in
a different location in Riverton, but Powell said the
fire district agreed to keep in its familiar setting. The
new siren rests on a free-standing pole instead of on
the roof of the old building.
“We figured since we own this property we won’t
have any problems,” he said.
The new siren was a celebratory moment for the
fire district mostly because a substantial grant from
the Department of Homeland Security will cover the
costs incurred from the electrical installation, estimated anywhere from $18,000 to $20,000, Powell
said.
Powell said the siren itself was purchased from a

SPEEDY FIRES CHAR 22 HOMES
RENO, Nev. (AP) — A trio of wind-whipped wildfires
burning along the Sierra Nevada destroyed 22 homes north of
Carson City, forced hundreds of evacuations at Lake Tahoe
and temporarily closed a major highway connecting Reno to
the mountain lake.
Nevada Gov. Brian Sandoval declared a state of emergency
as hundreds of firefighters battled the most dangerous fire,
which is still threatening hundreds of structures in the Washoe
Valley along Interstate 580 and U.S. Highway 395 between
Reno and Carson City.
BLOODY SCENE AT L.A. RESTAURANT SHOOTOUT
LOS ANGELES -- A gun battle at a restaurant in the West
Adams district left three people dead and 12 others wounded
early Saturday, prompting a massive police dragnet for suspects. “It’s a bloody scene with shell casings everywhere,” Los
Angeles Police Sgt. Frank Preciado said.
There were about 50 people inside the restaurant when an
argument broke out, Preciado said.
Three men left the restaurant, returned with firearms and
began shooting, according to police. Others at the restaurant
also opened fire, and some diners were caught in the crossfire,
Preciado said.
The shooting continued in the driveway of the restaurant,
which is located in a house on a residential block, police said.
Numerous officers from across Los Angeles were sent to the
scene, which Preciado called “really devastating.”
1.4M WILL HAVE TO CHOOSE NEW HEALTH PLANS
NEW YORK -- A growing number of people who have
health insurance under the Affordable Care Act finding out
their plans will disappear from the program next year, forcing
them to find new coverage even as options shrink and prices
rise. At least 1.4 million people in 32 states will lose the plans
they have now, according to state officials. That’s largely caused
by Aetna, UnitedHealth Group and some state or regional
insurers quitting the law’s markets for individual coverage.
Sign-ups for coverage under the federal health plan begin
next month. Fallout from the quitting insurers has emerged as
the latest threat to the law, which is also an issue in the U.S.
presidential election. While it’s not clear what all the consequences of the departing insurers will be, interviews with regulators and insurance customers suggest that plans will be fewer
and more expensive, and may not include the same doctors
and hospitals.
It may also mean that instead of growing in 2017, care
imder the health care program. As of March 31, the law covered 11.1 million people.

Landmark pollution pact reached; will cut HFCs
KIGALI, Rwanda (AP) — Environmental
groups on Saturday said nations have reached a
deal to limit the use of greenhouse gases far
more powerful than carbon dioxide as part of
efforts to fight climate change.
At issue are hydrofluorocarbons, or HFCs,
which are used in air conditioners and refrigerators and have been described as the world’s
fastest-growing climate pollutants.
Observers said the agreement caps the use of
HFCs beginning in 2019, led by developed
countries including the United States, the
world’s second worst polluter. More than 100
developing countries, including China, the
world’s top carbon emitter, would start taking
action in 2024.
Observers said a small group of countries
including India, Pakistan and some Middle East
states pushed for and secured a later start in
2028, arguing that their economies need more
time to grow. That’s three years earlier than
India, the world’s third worst polluter, had first
proposed.
Scientists have said an agreement could put a
half-degree Celsius dent in global warming by
the end of the century.
“Compromises had to be made, but 85 percent
of developing countries have committed to the
early schedule starting 2024, which is a very significant achievement,” Clare Perry, UK Climate
Campaign Leader with the Environmental
Investigation Agency, said in a statement.
Environmental groups called this meeting
the first real test of global will after the historic
Paris Agreement to cut carbon emissions was
reached last year.
The new agreement is “equal to stopping the
entire world’s fossil-fuel CO2 emissions for
more than two years,” David Doniger, climate
and clean air program director with the Natural
Resources Defense Council, said in a statement.
Experts said they hope that market forces will
help speed up the limits agreed to in the deal.
HFCs were introduced in the 1980s as a substitute for ozone-depleting gases.
But their danger has grown as air conditioner and refrigerator sales have soared in emerging
economies like China and India. HFCs are also
found in inhalers and insulating foams.
Major economies have debated how fast to
phase out HFCs. The United States, whose delegation was led by Secretary of State John Kerry,
and Western countries want quick action.
Nations such as India want to give their industries more time to adjust.
Small island states and many African countries had pushed for quick action.
Trump claims vote rigged, says Hillary on drugs
PORTSMOUTH, N.H. (AP)
— A beleaguered Donald Trump
sought to undermine the legitimacy of the U.S. presidential election
on Saturday, pressing unsubstantiated claims the contest is rigged
against him, vowing anew to jail
Hillary Clinton if he’s elected, and
throwing in a baseless insinuation
she was on drugs in the last debate.
Not even the country’s more
than two centuries of peaceful transitions of political leadership were
sacrosanct as Trump accused the
media and the Clinton campaign
of conspiring against him to undermine a free and fair election.
“The election is being rigged by
corrupt media pushing completely
false allegations and outright lies in
an effort to elect her president,” he
said, referring to the several women
who have come forward in recent
days to say Trump had groped or
sexually assaulted them. He has
denied the claims.
“Hillary Clinton should have
been prosecuted and should be in
jail,” he added. “Instead she is running for president in what looks
like a rigged election.”
Battered by sordid new accusa-
Republican nominee Donald
Trump speaking Saturday in
North Carolina. TNS
tions of sexual misbehavior,
Trump fought back in ever-moreremarkable fashion Friday, acting
out one woman’s allegation onstage
and suggesting another was not
attractive enough to merit his
attention.
“She would not be my first
choice, that I can tell you,” Trump
said of one woman in a rambling
attack on his female accusers as he
campaigned in North Carolina.
There was trouble in Ohio, too,
where Trump severed ties with the
state’s Republican Party chairman,
Matt Borges, who had become
openly critical of the nominee at
times. That crack in unity comes in
a critical battleground state, where
Republican Gov. John Kasich is
also not behind Trump.
Trump also suggested Saturday
that Clinton had been on drugs
during the last debate. Instead of
spending the weekend preparing,
he said, “I think she’s actually getting pumped up, you want to
know the truth. I think we should
take a drug test prior to the debate,
‘cause I don’t know what’s going on
with her,” he said. “But at the
beginning of her last debate, she
was all pumped up at the beginning. And at the end, it was like …
she could barely reach her car.”
Trump offered no evidence to
support the bizarre claim. Nothing
about Clinton’s demeanor in the
debate suggested she was under the
influence.

Men plotted to bomb Muslims
After hurricane, Haiti farmers
and fishermen in survival mode
MORNE LA SOURCE, Haiti (TNS) —
Marie-Lucienne Duvert looked out from under
the eaves of her mud and wood-frame house, as
her husband tried to repair the damaged roof
above her head, and tried to come to grips with
the expanse of devastation staring back.
“There isn’t even a tree left to catch a breeze,”
said Duvert, 63, surveying the once-majestic
coconut palm trees that now stood like inverted
wet mops and the toppled plantains, avocados
and dried-breadfruits littering the ground. “This
was our livelihood. Now it’s all gone, destroyed.”
Haitian and international authorities are still
trying to understand the full economic toll of
Hurricane Matthew’s powerful Category 4
winds and flood waters in five of this country’s
10 geographical departments. But the 2.1 million people affected by the storm don’t need a
balance sheet to understand their loss.
“All the resources they had were in their
goats, their cows, their farms,” said former Sen.
Francky Exius, who until last year represented
the South Departmen. He survived Matthew by
standing in the rain in a corner of his nowstorm-damaged home.“The only thing they had
was their identity. Their pride was their homes,
and now they don’t even have that to live in.”
All along Haiti’s southern coast, the losses are
as visible as the denuded palms, mangled fruit
trees and ripped-off tin roofs. Goats and cows -investments that pay for medical care and funerals -- have disappeared along with fishing boats,
nets and more than 90 percent of the crops,
according to a preliminary assessment by the
World Food Program.
“It wasn’t much, but we managed,” Duvert
said about the earnings she made from the
coconut and breadfruit plantation that sustained
her family. “Now, we’re left to the mercy of
God.”
Emmanuel Valcourt, a farmer who was worshipping at a nearby Church of God, was even
more blunt.
“I’m not afraid to say it, in another three, four
months, Haitians are going to die of starvation,”
he said. “I really don’t see how we’re going to
rebuild. We don’t have the financial means. We
don’t have a job that would have allowed us to
have savings. The animals we had are all dead.”
The outlook is even more dire 75 miles in the
direction of the fertile Grand’ Anse Department
where the United Nations aid agency estimates
that all of the crops -- 100 percent -- were
washed away just before harvest time.
“Everything’s lost,” said a numb Marcorel
Nicola, who grew plantains, coconuts, yams and
other crops and sold them to local markets
around Jeremie, the Grand’ Anse’s devastated
Before Hurricane Matthew, Marie-Lucienne Duvert lived off the land in Haiti.
Now the farmer has lost everything. TNS
WICHITA, Kan. (AP) —
Three members of a Kansas militia
group were charged Friday with
plotting to bomb an apartment
complex that's home to Somali
immigrants in the western Kansas
meatpacking town of Garden City,
a thwarted attack prosecutors say
was planned for the day after the
November election.
The arrests were the culmination of an eight-month FBI investigation. A complaint unsealed
Friday charges Curtis Wayne Allen,
49; Patrick Eugene Stein, 47; and
Gavin Wayne Wright, 49, with
conspiring to use a weapon of mass
destruction. Their first court
appearance is Monday.
The men don't yet have attorneys.
The men are members of a small
militia group that calls itself "the
Crusaders," and whose members
espouse sovereign citizen, anti-government, anti-Muslim and antiimmigrant extremist beliefs,
according to the complaint.
urban core. “I didn’t even get a chance to start
gathering them.”
But beyond the crop and two cows, Nicola
suffered an even more devastating loss: his 8year-old daughter and 9-year-old son. They were
swept away in the middle of the night by the
raging river, unleashed by Matthew’s 145 mph
winds, that burst onto the family’s property
stealing all that Nicola and his wife held dear.
In the week since the storm’s passing, Nicola
is still trying to make sense of the tragedy, speaking in a slow, grief-stricken tone. Unable to
remain near the river that wiped away his prior
existence, Nicola ended up in a muddy, debrisstrewn field along the shoulder of the blacktop
road leading into Jeremie.
Trump makes Democrats’ task easier
in Congress election, but not certain
WASHINGTON — Democrats have been given a
gift in 2016. Party officials are increasingly optimistic
that Donald Trump’s flailing presidential campaign
will damage fellow Republicans and give them control
of the Senate — and perhaps even the House.
Yet neither scenario is assured, even if Hillary
Clinton wins the presidency in a blowout.
“Both houses are doable for Democrats. But the
Senate is obviously much easier for them, and even
that isn’t a slam-dunk,” said Larry Sabato, an election
analyst at the University of Virginia. “In both cases, the
prerequisite is a large Clinton victory margin.”
If Clinton wins, taking the Senate requires a net
gain of four seats. It will probably come down to six
races rated “tossup” by Sabato’s “Crystal Ball” forecast:
five Republican-held seats (New Hampshire,
Pennsylvania, North Carolina, Missouri and Indiana),
and one Democratic-held seat (Nevada).
Some Republicans such as New Hampshire’s Kelly
Ayotte and Pennsylvania’s Pat Toomey are running
ahead of Trump and polling competitively against their
Democratic rivals. Ohio’s Rob Portman enjoys a double digit lead over Democrat Ted Strickland, and
Wisconsin’s Ron Johnson, long thought to be a lost
cause, is within striking distance of Democrat Russ
Feingold in two recent polls, although others put him
farther behind.
There’s no sign of a 2008-style wave yet, Goldstein
said, but he noted they typically materialize in the final
week or two before Election Day.
The House will be much tougher to flip. Democrats
need to gain 30 seats, and the deck is stacked against
them given the GOP’s geographical advantages thanks
to gerrymandering after the 2010 census.
Democrats are on track for double-digit gains in the
chamber but remain “a long way off from winning the
House majority,” said David Wasserman, the House
editor for the Cook Political Report.
Their path to the majority means winning the 190
races they’re favored in under Cook’s forecast, along
with 17 tossups and 11 of 12 contests that lean
Republican. The latter would require something akin
to a miracle.
“In most of those races Republican are up by 10 to
15 points,” Wasserman said. Gerrymandering helps
“enormously,” he said, but “the larger Republican
advantage is that Democrats tend to live in urban districts where they’re wasting a lot of votes. This is what
the Republicans had in mind when they redrew the
districts.”

Tribal veterans get transport help
Staff and wire reports
As a result of Wond Warriors
Family Support, the Eastern
Shoshone Tibes is received a Ford
truck to help transport veterans to
their Veterans Affairs medical
appointments in Sheridan and
Cheyenne.
Eastern Shoshone tribal liaison
to Gov. Matt Mead’s office Leslie
Shakespeare wrote the proposal for
the vehicle and said the truck will
be used by all veterans on the Wind
River Indian Reservation who have
medical appointments in Sheridan
and Cheyenne.
The Shoshone tribe is one of
several tribes from eight states to
receive the donation from a total of
16 Ford trucks costing about
$600,000.
Shakespeare said the Shoshone
tribe will be the owners of the
truck and provide vehicle insurance. To use the truck, drivers will
need to meet the tribe’s vehicle
“driver and insurance policy” criteria. Appointments to use it will
need to be made at least weeks in
advance and an initial flat fee will
be charged to veterans. Those fees
will go to maintenance and fuel
costs and are included in VA medical benefits,.
"Yet, Native American veterans,
because of their isolation on
remote reservations, are too often
underserved and forgotten,” said
Col. John Folsom, founder of
Wounded Warriors. "We want to
help families, regardless of where
they are."

New harassment policy at courthouse
By Daniel Bendtsen
Staff Writer
Fremont County has instituted
a new harassment policy for thge
courthouse after a dispute between
two employees in the Public
Health department and small
waste water specialist Marcel Lopez
led to multiple closed-door meeting among County Commissioners
and extra expenses to replace locks.
After two employees complained that Lopez had made them
feel uncomfortable, the planning
department employee was asked to
sign a statement promising not go
into any other county offices
except on official business.
Lopez refused, saying the allegations against him were baseless.
Lopez said that an employee’s
boyfriend then tried to intimidate
him, first smashing a squash
against his vehicle and then placing
a live round underneath his windshield wiper.
Lopez said the courthouse’s
cameras were never checked to
determine the perpetrator, and he
told commissioners that there has
been a “systematic minimizing” of
the threats against him due to his
race and gender.
County clerk Julie Freese, who
handles human resources at the
courthouse, said that she would
have been happy to investigate
Lopez’s concerns had she been
made aware of them.
Because the original claim
against Lopez was based on “circumstantial evidence at best,”
county board chairman Doug
Thompson said the handling of the
dispute “raised big questions.”
“That doesn’t just smack of discrimination. That is discrimination,” said commissioner Ray Price.
In order to minimize the risk of
such a dispute arising again, the
county will now require victims of
harassment to submit a written
report to Freese after first verbally
notifying her, as well as immediate
supervisor.

Mozart's saucy, tragicomic “Don
Giovanni” will be broadcast live in an
HD video from New York's Metropolitan
Opera at the Lander library on Saturday.
Viewers will see some of Mozart's most
memorable music framing the escapades
of a dashing, heartless sexual desperado
and the divine justice that finally overtakes him.
Set in 18th century Seville and based
on the Spanish legend of Don Juan, Don
Giovanni provided the psychological core
of the character of Mozart in Peter
Schaffer's biographical stage drama
“Amadeus” and the 1984 screen adaptation.
Don Giovanni will be sung in its original Italian with English subtitles, broadcast beginning upstairs in the Carnegie
Room at 10:55 AM and concluding
around 2:30 PM.
Tickets cost $10 for adults and $5 for
students. There will be two acts separated
by one 30-minute intermission, during
which box lunches from the Breadboard

Red Cross needs
help to install
reservation alarms

Royal Wranglers
q About 300 homes have
made appointments.
As part of the Home Fire Prevention
Campaign, the American Red Cross of
Wyoming will be installing smoke alarms
Saturday in homes on the Wind River
Indian Reservation.
Anyone 16 or older is welcome to register to help, and volunteers will meet for
training at 8 a.m. Saturday at Northern
Arapaho Health, 643 Blue Sky Highway, in
Ethete.
The volunteers will receive training in
installation before being sent out to homes
in teams.
People who register to help will join local
agency partners and volunteers from the
Red Cross to install the alarms. About 300
homes have requested a smoke alarm,
meaning more community volunteers are
needed to make all of the appointments.
For more information contact
AmeriCorps/VISTA preparedness specialist
Rae Smith at the Red Cross Casper office
(439-4167) or volunteer services specialist
Cairn Reisch at [email protected].
According to the Home Fire Campaign,
seven times a day someone in this country
dies in a home fire, while countless others
suffer injuries.
To combat the statistics, workers with
the Red Cross Home Fire Campaign join
with local fire departments and community groups to educate people about fire safety and install smoke alarms in homes.
The campaign is powered by more than
1,800 local community partners and more
than 40 national partner organizations.

After drilling an eight-foot-deep hole in the parking lot alongside the Gem Theater and
Riverton Fire Station 1, High Plains Power workers raised the pole supporting the new
fire siren about 50 feet west of the old one. The old siren, in use since about 1950, will
be offered to the Riverton Museum.

and running the fire district expects to only have
to pay a little less than $3,000, which Powell said
was great news.
A grant could cover the costs of removing and
hauling away the old siren, but the fire district
will cover any shortfall.
Communications Technologies Inc. in Mills,
which also has an office in Lander, and Hoffman
Electric of Riverton did the electrical hook-up
and programming. Maulik is the owner of
Hoffman Electric.
The new siren comes with an advanced digital
system that allows the Riverton Police
Department to sound the alarm. The fire district
will have the capability of programming it man-
to such tribal accounts, or expended for programs or purposes not specifically authorized

Roberts not on ballot
The only local judge not facing
retention this year is circuit court
judge Wesley Roberts, who was last
on the ballot in 2014.
That year, 3 percent fewer attorneys favored his approval than they
did the average circuit court judge.
Roberts was this year’s recipient
of the state bar’s “judicial excellence” award, with Wyoming
Supreme Court Chief Justice James
Burke praising Roberts for his dedication in every case to “get it
right.”

lunch siren will still go off, Powell added.
High Plains Power in Riverton donated the
60-foot wooden pole, plus the manpower and
equipment for installing the siren. High Plains
dug an eight-foot hole for the pole and put it
into place.
Other, outdated alarms still are in place
around Riverton, but they’re no longer activated
for use. The siren atop the old City Hall has
been in continuous service for about 65 years.
In addition to being used as a fire whistle, the
siren was as an air raid siren that could alert the
public of possible missile attacks during the Cold
War. It also was activated for civil defense drills
in earlier years.

On specific questions of judicial
behavior, Tyler had come close to
the benchmarks set by his peers but
earned some unusual criticism by
attorneys for his etiquette; 25 percent of polled attorneys disagreed
with the idea that Tyler conducts
his courtroom with “courteousness
and politeness,” an area in which
Young and Denhardt both scored
exceptionally well.
Despite that criticism, Tyler —
who was first appointed as a judge
in 2008 — earned high praise for
his “integrity and ethics to carry out
the duties of the judicial office.”
From staff reports
Aaron Holliday, who choked
his girlfriend last month and then
hid from police, will received a
deferred sentence as part of a
plea deal.
Instead of imprisonment,
Holliday will be given credit for
time served and released after
sentencing.
Police arrived at Holliday’s
Alaska Road home Sept. 8
when they were told he was
inside with “multiple firearms,”
hiding with his three children.
The reporting party said he
was “in a suicidal state of
mind.”
According to an affadavit,
police noticed Holliday’s girlfriend had a “very raspy voice”
and the defendant was later
charged with strangulation of a
household member.
After being punched repeatedly and being told “she was
going to die,” the girlfriend said
Holliday had choked her until
she lost consciousness.
When police raided the
home, Holliday was found under
hiding a pile of clothes in a closet. He complied with police
orders.
As part of the agreement for
deferred prosecution in the matter, Holliday will receive three
years probation.

Vast stretches of empty
prairie dominate Big
Sky of our state
By Bill Sniffin
There are stretches of Wyoming that
seem to go on forever. Our tongue-incheek state motto of the Big Empty
really makes sense when you are
driving across these vast places.
My late dad used to complain about that stretch of Highway 26
from Casper to Shoshoni as “96 miles of nuthin.” There have been
some boring afternoon trips that would qualify for that assessment.
Recently, we were in the Eden-Farson area, which to those who
do not know, is between Rock Springs and Pinedale. North of
Farson is about a 30-mile stretch where it appears to be flat as a
pool table. Of course, over your shoulder is the vast Wind River
Mountain Range, which on that side, shows off all its glory.
On the other end of the state, north of Cheyenne toward
Wheatland, is another big stretch of our high plains. A similar swath
also covers a huge chunk of land north of Laramie.
There are some big ranches nestled out there and where there is
occasional water, there is a lot of activity.
The Thunder Basin National Grassland, which stretches north of
Douglas up to Gillette, is another of our high plateau wonders. Talk
about Big Sky!
The horizon just cannot get any bigger than that.
And when you talk about Big Sky, people usually think about the
state of Montana, which has greedily adopted that fine moniker. I
happen to be currently listening to an audiobook version of A. B.
Guthrie’s famous book The Big Sky and most of its story occurs in
Wyoming. I am right now listening to a big section about mountain
men heading to Rendezvous where the Wind River and the Popo
Agie River turn into a river he called the Horn (the Big Horn).
Now this is a classic book and a wonderful read if you love the
West like I do. But I wonder if it is allowed in classrooms any
more? I doubt Guthrie’s book can pass muster in schools that today
are monitored by the Political Correct police. But wow, what a great
book. It could be assumed that some edited versions are in some
libraries.
I would also recommend people buy it as an audiobook – it has
so much more color. It just comes alive.
The first and among the greatest of all the western novels is The
Virginian, written in 1902 by Owen Wister at a hotel in little
Medicine Bow, Wyoming. Its portrayal of the protagonist of the
book as an honest, straight-shooting cowboy set the stage for an
image that became standard for such books for decades. Wyoming’s
Code of the West could have come from that book.
Another great book, which is immensely informative, is Wallace
Stegner’s Beyond the Hundredth Meridian, written in 1954. It is a
true story and a wonderful read. Its later chapters detailed how the
conservation districts were formed in the USA and were a little
tedious. Not nearly as interesting as the earlier chapters about how
one-armed John Wesley Powell conquered the Grand Canyon,
departing from Expedition Island in Green River.
Again, though, as wide open as much of Wyoming, Colorado,
Montana, Utah and Idaho are today, when I am listening to The Big
Sky, it is inconceivable to imagine our part of the country without
cities or towns. Guthrie’s novel takes place around 1830 and some
of the older mountain men are already complaining “there are just
too many white people out here now. They have ruined the place!”
Besides Wyoming, lately I have been in Montana, Colorado, Utah
and Idaho and those same vast expanses that grace the Cowboy
State also exist in these other places.
If you took all the land available in the Rockies, we could
probably have a billion people in the USA. Not a good idea, just a
gentle speculation.
But I digress.
One of my favorite drives is highway 191 from Vernal, Utah, to
Rock Springs. There are a lot of switchbacks and the color when I
came over it the first week of October was brilliant.
Course, once we got to the Wyoming side of the mountain range,
it started snowing. Sort of took the fun out of what was shaping up
to be a very pretty fall drive.
Earlier on that same trip, we traveled over South Pass and in all
my years of living in Fremont County, I have never seen that fall
color more beautiful. The yellows, golds and reds were dazzling.

bookstores. His books are available at www.wyomingwonders.com.

Brothers make it their business to pick up after Big Horn litterbugs
By Gib Mathers
For the Associated Press
POWELL (AP) — It bugged
them so much that they decided
to address the unsightly mess.
Powell boys Quincy and
Devon Barhaug, aged 9 and 7
respectively, made it their mission
to clean up after litterbugs along
the highways, roads and trails in
the Big Horn Mountains and
elsewhere.
“We think it’s fun,” Quincy
said.
“We respect the mountain, and
the mountain respects us,” Devon
said.
Their parents, Ty and Jamie
Barhaug, are pitching in.
Jamie said her boys love the
outdoors.
The family filled 25 or 30 large
trash bags over the summer, she
said.
Some of the bags weighed 70
to 80 pounds to total 400 or 500
pounds, Ty said. They went trash
collecting once or twice per week.
A major portion of the litter
was collected along highways and
mountain roads, plus some
packed out while hiking and

backpacking, Jamie said. Parks
and baseball fields also benefited
from their toil.
If there is room in the cooler
for drinks and food, why isn’t
there space in there to keep the
empty containers until a trash
receptacle can be located? Jamie
asked.
“I can’t imagine throwing it
out your window,” she said.
People driving down the highway may spot a bottle or can here
or there.
The stuff is easier to discern
when it’s boots on the ground,
Jamie said. “Once you get out
and start walking it, (trash) starts
multiplying.”
The Powell Tribune met the
Barhaugs Friday, Sept. 23, just
south of Powell on the Shoshone
River. A road above Willwood
offers access to anglers and
hunters, and unfortunately, litter
bugs.
A pile of brush, cans, bottles,
and an elk carcass mar a lovely
landscape of cottonwood trees,
cattails and the river.
“The (Big Horn) mountain is
ten fold what this is,” Ty said.
At the access area, the boys are
raring to go. Dashing hither and
yon, they grab debris while their
dad holds a garbage bag, which is
sagging from the weight within a
few minutes.
“They’re the fetchers,” Jamie
said, laughing. “We’re the packers.”
“If it was only that easy to
clean your room,” quips a grinning dad to his sons.
Cans, bottles, and snowmobile
and ATV parts are some of the
refuse the family hauled from the
Big Horns, Ty said. “We can’t
leave it.”
“We climbed up a really steep
hill to get a snowmobile windshield,” Quincy said with pride.
They haul out quart oil bottles
too, Quincy said; many are halffull, Ty added.
They’ve also found still-sealed
beer bottles, some still frothy
when opened.
Beer cans date back to the
1960s, and bottles from the
1920s, Ty said.
Ty said his brother, Trampus
Barhaug, a Bighorn National
Forest employee, gave the family
access to the ranger station so
they could dispose of their debris.
Sometimes the boys’ labors are
profitable.
They found a 1917 half dollar,
Quincy said, and a geologist
weighing in on the family’s
Facebook page verified one of
their finds as a petrified palm
seed. They’ve discovered petrified
coral, too.
“You never know what you’re
going to find,” Jamie said.
She said her sons aim to make
their world a better place. “I’m
extremely proud of them. It’s
awesome.”
A light drizzle brings a chill to
the air that Friday, but it does
nothing to dampen the boys’
unbridled enthusiasm. The air is
as fresh as a dew-drop beneath
cottonwood trees acting as
umbrellas. Most foliage is green,
but a few trees are turning yellow,
made bright under glum skies.
Quincy finds a hollow partly
concealed by brush where an
empty 12-pack of Budweiser presumably was consumed.
The footing is precarious
where soggy twigs and leaves conceal holes like natural pitfalls.
Jamie holds her sons’ hands to
facilitate their descent while
maintaining an air of certainty, as
though she knows her boys are
capable of tackling tricky terrain.
Jamie said they hope to fetch
more trash this fall and in succeeding seasons. “Make it a family tradition and inspire other people to do it.”
After driving by and seeing the
youngsters lugging bulging
garbage bags, will that shame litter bugs into depositing their
refuse responsibly?
“I would like to think people
would want to change,” Jamie
said.
Perhaps folks who would not
stoop in the past to pick up a can
or bottle would experience a revelation after witnessing the boys
and their parents’ laudable deeds.
“It doesn’t take a whole lot of
effort to clean up,” Ty said.
What if everyone took the time
to gather a bit of trash along a
road or favorite hiking haunt?
“You can make a difference,”
Jamie said.

Ida Peternal Barlow
Ida Peternal Barlow of
Kemmerer died peacefully after a
short bout with pneumonia at the
home of her niece, Kelly Peternal
Thoman, on the Thoman ranch
near Riverton. She was 97.
She was born Oct. 22, 1918, in
Kemmerer, to Slovenian immigrants Johann Peternel and Rosalia
Hvala Peternal. She lived a full life
in her hometown until moving in
2009 to live with her niece on the
Thoman ranch.
Mrs. Barlow worked for many
years in Kemmerer at the Union
Pacific Railroad Company as a
telegrapher, was a loyal member of
St. Patrick's Catholic Church, and
was active in many civic organizations, BPW, in local bowling
leagues and in canasta clubs with
her many friends.
Her older sister Rose was born
in November 1917 and died in
January of 1918, making Mrs.
Barlow the eldest child, who later
cared for her widowed mother and
helped her brothers in the operation of the Union Meat Market on
Main Street in Kemmerer and the
Peternal Brothers ranches on the
Ham’s Fork Creek – the present
Bob and Shirley (Graham) Peternal
ranch just northwest of town above
the so called “Fox Farm,” the former “Sneddon’s ranch” farther
upriver, and the “Wasach ranch”
near Granger.
When she was not yet 2 years
old her brother John was born; he
later married Edna May Maki and
settled on the first of those ranches,
where their son Bob grew up. A
year and a half later her brother
Otto was born; in 1963 he married
Helen Farrell, and they spent the
rest of their lives in Kemmerer.
Some six years later her youngest
brother Bill was born; in 1953 he
married a school teacher from
Boston, Nancy Farrell – Helen
Farrell’s youngest sister – who settled in Kemmerer, eventually
becoming a member of the
Wyoming State House of
Representatives, a Lincoln County
commissioner and co-founder of
the Frontier Fossil Museum in
Kemmerer.
Mrs. Barlow lived through
World War II, when her brother
Otto did military service, and the
Korean Conflict, in which her
brother Billy served.
When she was 25, her father
died after having worked in the
coal mines, started a grocery business and begun ranching. She lived
with her mother above the Union
Meat Market until Rose Peternal’s
death in 1979. On Sept 15, 1982,
she married a longtime coworker
at Union Pacific, widower Dean
Barlow, who himself died in 1984.
Ida Peternal Barlow
Mrs. Barlow outlived her three
brothers and was preceded in death
by her brother Otto’s daughter
Amy Peternal (2005) and the son
of her brother Bill’s daughter,
Chance Thoman (2001).
She is survived by her stepchildren Gwen Laine and Dean
Rampton Barlow from Colorado;
nephews Bob (Shirley Graham)
Peternal and John Farrell Peternal
of Vilnius, Lithuania; nieces Lucy
Hillstead of Afton, Ann (Scott)
Peternal–Boyle, now living in
Germany, Ellen Peternal and Kelly
(Bob) Thoman of Riverton; and
numerous grand and great-grand
nieces and nephews.
Her memorial mass was Sept. 15
at St. Margaret’s Catholic Church
in Riverton, followed by a wake
and rosary Sept. 16, and a funeral
and burial Sept. 17 at St. Patrick’s
Catholic Church in Kemmerer.

Court rules 2014 mustang roundup
was illegal; pending one called off
Carbon research
facility proposed
in Campbell Co.
By Bob Moen
Associated Press
GILLETTE (AP) — An Gillette economic development organization hopes to build a carbon
innovation research facility.
Energy Capital Economic
Development CEO Phil Christopherson said the idea is to build a
facility where research into coal
uses can be coordinated.
He said the goal is to establish a
place where people can set up pilot
projects to take advantage of coal
supplies, one of the state’s most
abundant resources.
The University of Wyoming is
interested in participating, but
researchers need a place to work.
They also need funding.
Christopherson said he doesn’t
expect the project to yield immediate results, and he has not identified any specific projects.
“I don’t expect to see any businesses come out of it next year or
the year after,” he said.
CHEYENNE (AP) — A federal
appeals court has ruled that the
U.S. Bureau of Land Management
violated the law when it removed
more than 1,200 wild horses from
southwest Wyoming in 2014.
The ruling Friday by the 10th
Circuit Court of Appeals in Denver
prompted the BLM to call off a
wild horse roundup scheduled to
begin in the same area next week.
The BLM had planned to gather
about 500 horses.
BLM spokeswoman Kristen
Lenhardt said that the agency is
reviewing the ruling and “going
forward, our goal remains to have
healthy horses on healthy rangelands.”
It was the second ruling this
week by the 10th Circuit that went
against the state of Wyoming and
ranchers who want the BLM to
control the number of wild horses
on federal land in the state.
The ruling issued Friday contained just the decision by three
members of the court and noted
that a full opinion will be issued
later.
The ruling pertained to large
area around Rock Springs where
mostly unfenced federal and private land are interspersed in a
checkerboard fashion and where
wild horses roam and privately
owned cattle graze.
Local ranchers represented by
the Rock Springs Grazing Asso0cia-tion contend the wild horses
are overpopulated and damaging
the range that both the horses and
cattle graze.
But advocates for the wild horses argue that ranchers want the
horses removed just to gain more
grazing for their cattle.
Bill Eubanks, a Fort Collins,
Colorado, lawyer representing the
American Wild Horse Preservation
Campaign and other groups that
challenged the 2014 roundup, said
Friday’s ruling “throws a wrench
into the backroom deal between
the BLM and livestock grazing
interests to eliminate federally protected wild horses from over one
million acres of public land in
Wyoming.”
Eubanks said in a statement that
he believes the ruling sets a “major
legal precedent across the West”
because it stops the BLM from
treating public land as private land.
Jim Magagna, executive vice
president of the Wyoming Stock
Growers Association, said Friday’s
ruling was an abbreviated version
and he would have to wait for the
The State of Wyoming and ranchers want the BLM to control
the number of wild horses on federal land in the state. BLM
full opinion before commenting on
whether ranchers will seek additional legal proceedings in the case.
But Magagna said it appears to
him the federal law that the court
ruled the BLM had violated needs
to be changed because the ruling
leaves an “untenable situation”
since the same law also provides for
the removal of wild horses from
private land.
“If they abide by one section of
the law in a practical manner,
they’re in violation of the other —
either way by gathering horses or
failing to gather horses,” he said.
The state of Wyoming sided
with the ranchers in the lawsuit,
and Mary Kay Hill, of Gov. Matt
Mead’s office, said the governor
will consult with the state attorney
general on future legal actions.

ABC’s new ‘American
Housewife has promise,
but it needs to work at
it
Lori Borgman
The kitchen
is a fine place
to rustle up
some paranoia
By Meredith Blake
Tribune News Service
In “American Housewife,” which premiered Tuesday on ABC, average is the
new diverse.
While its broadcast rivals continue to
struggle in the comedy department, the
network has built a successful formula of
sitcoms centered on distinctive families,
from striving Taiwanese immigrants
(“Fresh Off the Boat”) to upscale African
Americans (“black--ish”).
This fall, the network seems determined
to expand the very definition of “diversity,”
all too often used as shorthand for “nonwhite,” to include people of varying
incomes, body shapes and physical abilities. That is, to look a bit more like the
country in which we live.
First, there was “Speechless,” starring
Minnie Driver as a mother of modest
means who advocates fiercely on behalf of
her son with cerebral palsy. And now
there’s “American Housewife,” a series that
depicts two groups sorely underrepresented
on television despite constituting a large
swath of the American populace: the middle class and the (ever--so--slightly) overweight.
Created by Sarah Dunn, “American
Housewife” follows Katie Otto (Katy Mix-on), a “well--nourished” stay--at--home
mom of three living among the
Lululemon--clad size 0s in Westport,
Conn., a bastion for hedge--fund gazillionaires.
Though Katie is neither fat nor poor,
her neighbors, with their “big houses and
tiny butts,” certainly make her feel that
way, and when it comes to wealth and
weight, it’s all relative.
Question — There was a show on
ABC during winter and spring called “The
Family” that I really enjoyed.
The last show really left us hanging.
Will this show be returning?
Answer — No. ABC decided not to
renew it. But you aren’t alone in your
curiosity, and a second season had been
mapped out. You can find a detailed discussion of where the show would have
gone in its second season here:
tvline.com/2016/05/15/the-family-season2-spoilers-cancelled-abc.
We have a long-standing
family tradition of thinking
someone may be trying to
harm us in the kitchen.
It’s not that we’re paranoid,
it’s just that we all think somebody is out to get us.
If you don’t know the difference, then, well…
When my brother was 4, he
watched our mom make hot
cocoa at the stove. He studied
her mixing milk, sugar and
cocoa in a pan over a flame.
Then she poured in a splash
of vanilla. He asked if she was
trying to poison him.
There was no convincing
him. He’d seen what he’d seen.
Because such suspicion is
deeply embedded in a family’s
DNA, years ago when one of
our girls watched me make
guacamole and saw me add
lemon juice, she asked me
what I was up to. As though I
was doing something devious.
“It keeps it from turning
brown,” I explained.
She actually made me feel
criminal making guacamole.
Family stayed with us over
the weekend and I made
scrambled eggs Saturday
morning, sprinkling them
with kosher salt and freshly
ground pepper.
Later, the 7-year-old took
me aside.
“Grandma, I liked pepper
on the eggs. It makes them
spicy.”
“Good,” I said.
“But we don’t eat salt.”
She tilted her head and shot
me a look that said, “What do
you have to say for yourself,
woman?”
Guilty – that’s what I have
to say for myself. Guilty of
seasoning eggs.
Not only is our family suspicious, we do our best to
spread suspicion to incoming
family members.
We have a son-in-law who
detests tomatoes. He so detests
them it even says so on the
back of his driver’s license:
“Designated Organ Donor
and Hater of Tomatoes.”
I’m not kidding. When you
see him, ask him. He’ll show
you that license.
I persuaded him there was
nothing quite so wonderful as
a sun-dried tomato packed in
olive oil.
So, to this credit, he tried
one. Cautiously.
He chewed it a couple
times, looked at me like I was
trying to kill him, and then
spit it out.
There’s been a distance
between us ever since.
We were at our son’s place
in Chicago a while back, and I
was stunned to see him
hunched over a bottle of
vodka at the kitchen sink on a
Sunday morning.
“Is everything all right?” I
asked.
He said yes, he and his wife
have been making their own
vanilla by steeping vanilla

Katie Mixon has the title role in “American Housewife,” Katie Otto, a wife and mother who wonders if the other
women she meets ever do anything besides diet and work out.
ABC photos/TNS
With a “cozy” rented house and a
daughter plagued by anxiety issues, Katie
feels like a misfit. Then she learns that her
neighbor, known only as “Fat Pam,” is
moving to Vermont, officially making
Katie “the second--fattest housewife in
Westport,” a title she is loath to inherit.
“It’s like stepping into a really bright
spotlight,” she explains to her adoring husband, Greg (Diedrich Bader, “Veep”), “and
it’s making me feel really bad about something I already don’t feel great about in the
first place.”
He proposes a solution, or what passes
for one: Find a “largerish--type gal” to buy
Fat Pam’s house.
A fish--out--of--water sitcom that purports to celebrate normalcy in a world
warped by privilege and unrealistic ideals,
“American Housewife” embraces a woman
with an average physique while shaming
the heavier set and engaging in the very
type of exclusion and intolerance it aims to

Deep well of fall books arriving in paperBy Moira Macdonald
There’s something about a crisp fall day
that just makes you want to curl up in an
armchair and read a good book, right?
(Preferably, as is often the case at my house,
with a purring cat squeezed in next to you.)
Here are some fall reading ideas from the season’s new crop of paperbacks, perhaps destined for an armchair near you.
tV Q & A
FICTION
“Harbour Street,” by Ann Cleeves
(Minotaur Books, $16.99). This tale of a
murder investigation during the holidays is
the sixth installment in Cleeves’ popular
British mystery series featuring D.I. Vera
Stanhope. It’s the inspiration for the television series “Vera,”starring Brenda Blethyn
and airing on PBS.
“Fates and Furies” by Lauren Groff
(Penguin, $16). Groff’s third novel, a
National Book Award finalist, is the story of a
marriage, told from the point of view of husband Lotto, then from that of wife Mathilde.
President Obama named it as his favorite
book of 2015; in a Seattle Times review,
Misha Berson called it “one of the most
absorbing, intimate accounts of a modern
marriage I’ve read in a good while.”
“The Past” by Tessa Hadley (Harper
Perennial, $15.99). A quartet of adult siblings, with various family members, gather at
a crumbling seaside home in Somerset once
owned by their grandparents.
Reviewing the book last winter, I was
struck by Hadley’s soft, delicate prose, and by
the way that manse came to life on the page:
“close the pages of ‘The Past’ and you can
picture the house, smelling its faint dampness
and reading the stories in its weary walls.”

Old talk shows often were erased to tape could be used
You have questions. I have some
answers.
Question — I heard Merv Griffin in
an interview say that CBS destroyed all the
tapes of his late-night talk show for them.
Is that true? If so, what a shame.
Answer — Let’s call that partly true.
There was indeed a time when such things
as talk shows were looked on as disposable
instead of as historical pieces. As a result,
networks and other show distributors
would routinely erase and recycle tapes of
programs. Johnny Carson’s “Tonight
Show” telecasts from 1962 to 1972 have
almost all vanished.
In Griffin’s case, there were several
series: one on CBS in the early ‘60s, a syndicated telecast later in the decade, a latenight show for CBS from 1969-72 and
then another syndicated show from 1972
to 1986.

simply making the point that
people -- and perhaps women in
particular -- soothe our insecurities by comparing ourselves to
those who are worse off (or in
this case, bigger).
But even so, there are too
many moments in the pilot that
feel unnecessarily cruel and
regressive, as when Greg observes
of a plus--size, prospective buyer,
“There’s no getting around her
on the sidewalk.”
Such meanness mars what is
otherwise a sharply observed sitcom. Mixon, who starred in
“Mike & Molly,” another comedy that dealt with class and body
image, is a delight.
Blessed with cavernous dimples and the most expressive set
of eyebrows this side of Lady
Mary Crawley, she conveys
Katie’s insecurities in a way that’s
convincing but never self-loathing, even when the writing
veers in that direction.
As Katie, Mixon is a comfortable proxy for the audience, the
proudly imperfect mom who
shows up at school dropoff wearing a backward pizza--stained shirt
and is baffled by the grown
women around her who seem “to
do nothing but diet and work
out.”
Thankfully, Katie can commiserate with her friends, who
also fall outside the community’s
prevailing demographics: Angela
(Carly Hughes) is a black lesbian
going through a nasty divorce,
while Doris (Ali Wong) is a sarcastic, super--wealthy Tiger
Mom (hopefully the series can
harness some of the brilliance
Wong displays in her Netflix special, “Baby Cobra”).
Originally known as “The
Second Fattest Housewife in
Westport,” “American
Housewife” is about class as
much as body image.
After all, it costs a lot of
money to barely subsist on a diet
of $8 organic juices, and the
Ottos, while comfortable, are
clearly not members of the 1
percent.
Continued from page B-1
But as Katie explains in
voiceover, they were attracted to
Westport because of its high-quality public schools with programs for their youngest child,
Anna Kat (Julia Butters), who
has what appears to be obsessive
compulsive disorder.
“American Housewife” joins a
growing number of shows and
movies (“Bad Moms,” “Odd
Mom Out,” “Better Things”)
that take what is invariably
described as a “refreshingly honest” view on parenthood.
Dunn, a novelist and TV
writer with credits including
“Spin City” and “Bunheads,” has
a keen eye for anthropological
details and an understanding of
the inter--play among class, consumerism and motherhood.
In contrast to the uptight helicopter moms around her, Katie
jokes about eating soft cheeses
while pregnant and -- gasp! -admits she favors Anna Kat over
her other children.
She is “so real,” as the
Westport “skinnies” tell her,
through clenched grins.
With good reason, Katie worries that her kids might be affected by their surroundings. Her
oldest, Taylor (Meg Donnelly), is
pretty, thin and popular, while
middle child Oliver (Daniel
DiMaggio) is the show’s Alex P.
Keaton, a boy capitalist who
peruses copies of the Robb
Report for fun.
“My full--time job is to make
sure two of my kids fit in less
and one fits in more,” she
explains.
Lurking somewhere in
“American Housewife” is an incisive sitcom that can sit companionably along with ABC’s
thoughtful, culturally relevant
sitcoms.
In a mostly encouraging sign,
the second episode of “American
Housewife” ditches the weight
talk almost entirely, but it also
feels softer and, like its revised
title, generic.

‘Champagne Baby’an enjoyable fish-out-of-water
By Pamela Miller
In many a light memoir or novel, an
American moves to Europe and is transformed. “Champagne Baby” upends that
theme -- and lots of cultural assumptions.
Laure Dugas, who comes from a French winemaking family, moves to New York for what’s
supposed to be a six-month job and finds herself surprised and smitten by America --
“Blasphemous!” she says playfully.
Despite its bubbly title, her story is mature,
thoughtful and well written. It’s half memoir,
half a delightful primer on wine aimed at people who know little about it and don’t understand the fuss it inspires.
Despite her heritage, Dugas doesn’t know
much about it at first, either, but she comes to
deeply understand and love wine and wine
culture.
Dugas is smart, feisty, frank and funny, and

Schiff (Back Bay Books, $18.99). Schiff, the
Pulitzer Prize-winning author of “Vera” and
“Cleopatra: A Life,” here turns her attention to
the famed New England witch trials.
In a Seattle Times review, Claudia Rowe
praised Schiff’s “ability to render history in
vital detail, and from a contemporary perspective.”
“So You Don’t Get Lost In the
Neighborhood” by Patrick Modiano (Mariner
Books, $14.95). Should you wish to get a taste
of French writer Modiano, who won the
Nobel Prize in literature for 2014, this slim
suspense novel might be a good start.
The Los Angeles Times notes that it begins
with a Stendhal epigraph -- “I cannot provide
the reality of events, I can only convey their
shadow”-- that is “an almost perfect evocation
of the book, not to mention Modiano’s career.”
“Under the Udala Trees” by Chinelo
Okparanta (Houghton Mifflin Harcourt,
$14.95). In her first novel, Okparanta, a
Nigerian-born author whose honors include
the O. Henry Prize, tells a story of a young gay
woman named Ijeoma coming of age in
Nigeria, where she must hide her true self.
The New York Times notes Okparanta uses
few stylistic flourishes, preferring “to step aside
and allow Ijeoma to plainly tell her story, giving the novel an intimate feel.”

“Black Flags: The Rise of ISIS,” by Joby
Warrick (Anchor Books, $16). Abu Musab alZarqawi, the founder of what’s now known as
ISIS or ISIL, comes off in this “gripping” book
as “a kind of Bond villain, who repeatedly foils
attempts to neutralize him,” according to The
New York Times. Warrick, a Pulitzer Prizewinning reporter, “has a gift for constructing
narratives with a novelistic energy and detail.”
“Joy Ride: Show People and Their Shows”

of an acclaimed Tennessee Williams biography,

which honors science books in English written
for nonscientist readers. The New York Times
noted that this lively book “may go some way
toward returning this strange genius to the

ARIES (March 21-April 19). It
will be pretty easy to clear the
schedule. All you have to do is say
“No” — or better yet, don’t
answer the call. When was the last

but let your mind drift to wondrous playgrounds?

The lessons of this journey are not
like a lotion that you can rub into

They are more like raindrops that

GEMINI (May 21-June 21).
As much as you believe in trying
to be present, living in the now
and enjoying the moment, there
will always be some things you
have to get through and get over,
preferably with as little consciousness as possible.
CANCER (June 22-July 22).
Everyone needs reassurance and

acceptance of the nervous people.
This generosity of spirit — it
means a lot.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). To err

you in with the conventional

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22).
You are in no mood to be controlled, managed or limited in any

there’s leeway with your actions.
Choose mindfully.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21).
If you don’t tell a person your

in the mood to remain mysterious.
Also, you want to be remembered
for something other than your

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan.

The Trump effect
October 16, 2016
In Wyoming, it might come to be more important psychologically than electorally
An interesting side bet in this year’s presidential election
would be Donald Trump’s victorious vote percentage in
Wyoming.
We aren’t exactly a swing state. Wyoming’s three electoral
votes have been safely locked in Trump’s column since the
moment the gavel rapped to close the Republican National
Convention. Bad as things are getting for Trump nationally,
he will win Wyoming.
But that doesn’t mean the Trump furor is meaningless to
Wyoming. This year, no corner of the political realm is
immune from Donald Trump.
Across the country, Republican office holders and political
candidates are squirming under the glare brought on by
Trump’s almost daily controversies. One of the tactics used by
Democrats is daring Republicans to take a public position on
Trump, pro or con. That is being tried in Wyoming, regardless of the foregone conclusion of the presidential vote itself in
the state. It must be very uncomfortable for some.
None of Wyoming’s three members of Congress is up for
election, nor is the Republican governor. There is a race for
the U.S. House of Representatives, between Republican Liz
Cheney and Democrat Ryan Greene. Cheney is thought to be
on safe ground for the election, so there is no incentive for
her to attack Trump — and she hasn’t. Oddly, even Greene said during the week that he has not
ruled out voting for Trump. In deep-red Wyoming, it takes a
lot to change lanes, even when you are the Democrat and
Donald Trump is the topic.
Those are individual choices that don’t change the certainty
of a Trump victory in Wyoming. The only possibility that he
might be a real factor in our voting could be the so-called
“down-ballot” candidates, those who might suffer from association with Trump. On a national scale, Speaker of the House
Paul Ryan is not in trouble in his own election, but he now is
worried enough about the larger picture that during the week
he announced he would spend his energies politically not on
Donald Trump but in trying to preserve the congressional
majorities in the U.S. Senate and, strangely, the House of
Representatives as well. The latter is hard to believe, because
House Republicans enjoy an enormous numerical advantage
already, and careful gerrymandering of House districts makes
a Democratic takeover all but impossible — even with Trump
stinking up the room. Speaker Ryan is taking no chances.
Even so, it’s hard to see Wyoming playing a role in that.
Cheney will be heavily favored no matter what, and the
Trump factor would manifest itself only in her margin of victory. Further down the ballot, are there any actual
Republican-vs.-Democrat contests that could be influenced
by Trump? There aren’t all that many such races in the state to
begin with, but Fremont County has a couple that could at
least be made closer because of general voter reaction to
Trump.
Might the Thomas/Collins race for Fremont County
Commission be narrower with Trump kicking up so much
dust atop the balance? Will the Allen/Maldonado legislative
race tighten up because of Trump? No one thinks Eli Bebout
is going to lose in his re-election bid for Wyoming Senate, but
might his margin of victory over Democrat Chesie Lee be a
bit smaller due to voter dissatisfaction or suppressed turnout
thanks to Trump?
This is about as close as you’re going to get in Wyoming to
find some demonstrable impacts, election-wise, that could be
attributed to the national turmoil being generated by Donald
Trump. The bigger impact could well be internal. Nationwide we
see and hear Republicans say they are appalled and disgusted
with Trump but still will vote for him. The effect of feeling
you must vote for someone who disgusts you can’t help but
leave some baggage behind, can it? There is no easy way to
document that effect, but it is real. Voting ought to be a satisfying thing. That’s harder this year.
Interesting as it is to watch, in our state Donald Trump
really is not going to matter very much electorally. In the
minds of individual voters, however, he might matter a lot.

Law and order: Good message, bad messenq Neither Trump nor
Clinton is well-positioned to make the case.
Channeling Richard M. Nixon
from the 1968 presidential campaign, Donald Trump has tried to
make “law and order” one of his
signature issues.
In the first presidential debate,
Trump claimed that “AfricanAmericans (and) Hispanics are living in hell because it’s so dangerous. You walk down the street,
you get shot.”
Trump’s caricature is ridiculous
— but that doesn’t mean crime is
irrelevant to minority communities. Blacks and, to a far less
degree, Hispanics are likelier to
become crime victims than whites.
The homicide rate for black
victims is nearly eight times
greater than the rate for whites;
about 1 in 40,000 whites becomes
a victim of homicide in the U.S.
each year, whereas about 1 in
5,000 blacks will be murdered,
according to an analysis by Nate
Silver of FiveThirtyEight. The
homicide rate for Hispanics is
about twice that of whites, so
about 1 in 20,000.
These statistics are most troubling in light of newly released
FBI data that show that homicides
went up in 2015. Violent crime
had been going down for two
decades, but that trend reversed
itself in 2015 — just for a year,
which is not yet a trend, but it’s

not a welcome reversal.
Homicide increased by almost
13 percent between 2014 and
2015, with blacks accounting for
more than half of victims even
though they make up only 13 percent of the total population.
Hispanics were 16.6 percent of
victims, roughly the same as their
proportion of the population.
But even if blacks aren’t likely
to be killed — homicide still
remains a rare phenomenon —
they are likelier to live in cities
with high crime levels.
St. Louis became the most
dangerous city in America,
according to an analysis of the
new FBI violent crime numbers
by The Wall Street Journal, followed by Detroit and
Birmingham, Alabama.
Indeed, all 10 of the most dangerous cities have large black populations, while only one —
Oakland, California, the ninth-
most dangerous city — had a percentage of Hispanics larger than
the national average.
So why aren’t more blacks
jumping on the “law and order”
bandwagon? Perhaps if Trump
were not so ham-handed, he
might be able to make the issue
an appealing one for minority voters.
Trump talked about “stop and
frisk” laws, which debate moderator Lester Holt incorrectly suggested has been ruled unconstitutional. (The case Holt referred to
was a lower court ruling not
applicable outside the court’s jurisdiction.) But Trump left it to
Hillary Clinton to raise the issue
of community policing, an effective and far less controversial
method than stop-and-frisk.
Community policing involves
putting more police officers on
the street, where they can get to
know the people they are sworn to
protect. It means police officers
walking a beat or patrolling neighborhoods in their cars so that residents get to know the officers
before they need police help.
But effective policing requires
that a certain level of trust be
developed — on both sides of the
police equation.
Sadly, trust between police and
minority communities seems to be
on a precipitous decline. A whole
generation of young blacks is
learning to fear the police and not
to respect them.
At the same time, many police
officers — black as well as white
— behave as if they fear young
black men and, consequently,
don’t always treat them with
respect. Meanwhile, many
Hispanic immigrants avoid reporting crimes for fear of being
deported.
Minority communities would
benefit if effective crime-fighting
strategies became a focal point of
politicians. Unfortunately, neither
Trump nor Clinton is well-positioned to make the case.
Trump is, deservedly, suspect
on the issue.
He may talk about his concern
for blacks and Hispanics when it
suits him, but his racial stereotypes and ugly rhetoric make him
a poor messenger.
Clinton, on the other hand,
worries too much about alienating
the Black Lives Matter movement
to argue for more cops and fewer
criminals out on the street.
If left unaddressed, violent
crime will continue to climb.
We’ve had a good couple of
decades, but there is no guarantee
that crime will remain low.
If we’re not careful, we could go
back to where we were in 1968 —
and the ones who would suffer
most would be the great majority
of law-abiding black and Hispanic
Americans.

Deeply divided nation gave us
q It seems unlikely
we’ll have such an outcome this time around.
Despised in every “red state,”
the candidate was a long shot to
win the presidency, not even
appearing on the ballot in 10 of
those conservative states. In a nation split by subterfuge,
broken alliances and ever shifting
loyalties the White House was up
for grabs. In the end, the Democrats shot
themselves in the foot with a split
ballot. A popular, professional
politician was upstaged by a fellow
party member and lost momentum as the election drew near. To compound the issue, a third
party candidate eroded just enough
votes that when the final was taken
the outsider took office.
That outsider was Abraham
Lincoln. With just 40 percent of the
popular vote, Lincoln was elected
president, and America promptly
exploded into civil war.
Randy Tucker
Jump ahead 156 years, and the
United States hasn’t been this
deeply divided in a presidential
race since those dark days of
1860. More than 300 million
Americans, and these two clowns
are the ones we get to choose
from? It’s a phrase we all hear every
day. Yep, Hillary and Trump are
our choices.
The Lincoln-Douglas debates of
1860 and the Kennedy-Nixon ver-
sion a century later would boggle
the minds of a generation raised
on Jerry Springer. Sunday’s, “did
too/did not,” exchange between
Hillary Clinton and Donald
Trump was mind- numbing, seventh-grade drama at best, devoid
of issues, just mud thrown with
idiotic vigor, eagerly encouraged by
network moderators intent on
viewer ratings. Is this really the best we can do?
An anonymous quote sums up
the qualifications for at least one of
the candidates, “Decisions are
made by those who show up.”
Hillary has shown up for a long,
long time. Endless policy sessions, strategic
planning meetings, committee
hearings, embassy functions, party
luncheons, speaking engagements,
both large and small. You name it,
she’s attended it and much like the
unpopular girl in high school who
attends every meeting of every
club, she’s bound to get elected to
something eventually.

Older teen’s heart aches for younger cousin’s ordeal
DEAR ABBY: I am 18 and in
my sophomore year of college. A
month ago, my family went
through some major hardships.
It came out that “Uncle Mark”
has been cheating on my aunt for
years and is moving his mistress
to our area.
They have two children, a son
in elementary school and a
daughter, “Dana,” 13.
I feel bad for my aunt, but I’m
absolutely devastated for Dana.
My Uncle Mark has skipped all
of her school events in the wake
of this mess, and I can’t begin to
imagine how disappointed Dana
must feel.
I believe Uncle Mark is a
sociopath. He feels no empathy,
manipulates others, and has a
sadistic streak.Dana was not close
to her dad, but since this mess
began she’s even less so.
Abby, I don’t want my cousin
to feel like she’s alone. Because
I’m an older teenager, she looks
up to me. How can I be supportive, and not intrude in this delicate situation?
— SUPPORTIVE COUSIN
IN MAINE
DEAR SUPPORTIVE: You
are kind to want to help. Your
cousin is probably experiencing a
range of emotions because of the
turmoil that’s going on around
her family.
I think the kindest thing to do
would be to spend time with her
when your schedule permits and
allow her to vent when she needs
to, because she will.
This approach sounds simple,
but it will be more effective for
her than you might realize right
now. Good luck.
DEAR ABBY: I am a 10-yearold girl. I’m good at math and
Abigail Van Buren
very intelligent. I have two questions: When I’m alone in a dark
room, I feel like I have to run out
of the room. Why? Is this a normal thing to feel?
My second question is, what
kind of job can you get without
going to college?
— SMART GIRL
DOWN SOUTH
DEAR SMART SOUTHERN
GIRL: Many people of every age
— especially children and the
elderly — have a fear of the dark.
That’s why parents use small
night lights in their children’s
bedrooms, and why gadgets like
The Clapper are popular.
Adults may be afraid of tripping or running into furniture.
One hard toe stub can change an
attitude about a dark room.
Teens who watch scary movies
develop a fear of the dark because
they imagine a “monster” is lurking out of sight who might harm
them. These fears can persist into
adulthood for many people.
The solution can be as simple
as keeping a night light on or
switching a light on as you enter
a darkened area.
Please understand that there’s
nothing wrong with doing either,
or both. Lights were invented to
deal with darkness.
As to what kind of job a person can find without going to
college, discuss this with a counselor at your school.
College may not be for everyone, but I don’t think it’s likely
you’ll get a well-paying job without some advanced education —
if not in a college, then in an
apprenticeship program or a trade
school with a proven high job
placement record.
I recommend giving it some
time. You are 10 years old. In a
few years I predict you will feel
differently about college.
DEAR ABBY: My girlfriend
and I have been having a huge
disagreement lately. Since we can’t
seem to settle it, I’m asking for
your help.
I say that because tomatoes are
technically fruits, so I think
ketchup is a smoothie. She disagrees because tomatoes are the
only fruit in ketchup.
Please tell me — is ketchup a
smoothie? And if so, why?
— SPENCER IN ARIZONA
DEAR SPENCER: I ave been
at this for a long time, and your
question is a first.
Certainly there is such a thing
as a vegetable smoothie. Juice
bars sell them all the time. I don’t
think that is the pertinent issue
to your question.In my opinion,
however, ketchup is more a puree
than a smoothie. “Smoothie” suggests a beverage that’s drinkable,
and I don’t think ketchup qualifies… does it?
DEAR ABBY: I belong to a
gym that is wonderful. It has
great facilities and extensive services included in the fee that

convenience. Never a public servant of any
kind, he revels in preying on the public, not
paying subcontractors or taxes, even though he’s
a billionaire, and regularly thumbing his nose at
the civilities of society that allow us to get
along.
You couldn’t find two more disliked people
in America unless Dick Cheney himself decided
to run. Claiming these two are the worst candidates in our history is really saying something.
When you consider the likes of Al Gore,
Wendell Willkie, Michael Dukakis, George
McGovern, Thomas Dewey, George Wallace,
Walter Mondale, George McClellan and
George W. Bush you have a real rogues gallery
of people who should have never gotten the
nomination.
But in America, anyone can be president,
and the fact that these people all competed or
won the highest office in the land is in itself a
tribute to the way we do things here in the land
of the free.
How did we ever let this happen? In the
case of the GOP, the extremist fringe on the far
right began stealing the intellect of the party
back in 1994 when they put Newt Gingrich in
charge. It’s been a downhill slide into more
extreme, more narrow and more simplistic
views on every issue. Throw in the propaganda
factory that is Fox News and you have a perfect
encourage lots of family activities.
Among the facilities are family
changing rooms, which are rarely
used. Because of this, I am
reduced to a Monday-to-Friday
schedule because on weekends
many fathers bring their little
girls into the male changing room
(infants to 4 years of age).
Today I gave it a shot and
went to the gym only to
encounter a dad and daughter in
the male changing room, buck
naked. Is this the new normal,
Abby?
— NOT A DAD
IN BALTIMORE
DEAR NOT A DAD:
Whether it’s the new normal is
beside the point. If you prefer not
to encounter a child of the opposite sex in the men’s changing
room, you should discuss this
with the manager of the gym, or
change at home and arrive at the
gym clothed for your exercise
routine.

storm of political deviancy.
Trump and his unmanageable ego stepped in
and swept all the pandering party boys and girls
aside. In the process the party of Lincoln,
Teddy Roosevelt, Eisenhower and Reagan
became just another episode of reality television. Disgusting.
“The Donald’s” opponent arrived on a much
more direct path. Political correctness, tax and
spend, and the snubbing of the American middle class might not seem the best way to get the
Democratic nomination but as WikiLeaks and
other investigators have discovered, Hillary is
the most calculating, well-orchestrated, wellgroomed and media savvy candidate in the history of our nation.
While Trump sways voters with outrageous
statements and impersonations of someone’s
drunk uncle, Hillary spends hours with handlers who have remade her personality to seem
friendly, genuine and caring. If you have to be
coached in these attributes what was she like
before the makeover?
Insider manipulations to sabotage the one
truly genuine candidate, who had the American
people at heart, Bernie Sanders, only adds to
Hillary’s image as a manipulating, scheming
Machiavellian mastermind.
It was interesting to see the national news
media, the majority of whom are firmly in
Hillary’s corner turn viciously on Libertarian
candidate Gary Johnson when it seemed he
might erode votes from Clinton. They showed
their hands much too soon in the endless
“Jeopardy” sessions that passed for interviews
with Johnson until his popularity faded.
Yes, incredibly, she represents the party of
FDR, Truman and Kennedy.
Trump just doesn’t care what people think.
The man is the epitome of the ugly American.
Self-centered, egotistical and myopic, he is a
perfect psychopath.
So who do you vote for? If you’re a single
issue voter, someone who is opposed to abortion, for example, you might think Trump is
the choice. He’s not. Hillary is pro-choice but
would put programs in place that make the
outlook of keeping a child much brighter.
Trump just panders to the pro-life people, never
makes a stand, and would create a nation where
destitute young women have no choice but to
abort their unborn child.
In essence, that sums up this election. No
choice because of too many choices. Brave New
World becoming reality.
Either way America will survive. More than
1.1 million men were killed or wounded immediately after Lincoln’s election, but we survived
as a nation.
We’ll survive these two as well.

Tigers end streak with win over Rawlins
❑ Lander won for the first time in three
years in a 19-0 road defeat Friday night
on the road.
By Scott Akanewich
Sports Editor
Scott Akanewich
It’s finally over.
On Friday night on a blustery, unseasonably warm night at
Outlaw Stadium in Rawlins, it ended.
Lander Valley High School left the field following a varsity
football game victorious for the first time in three seasons with
a 19-0 win against the Outlaws.
Not since Oct. 25, 2013, when the regular-season finale
yielded a 22-21 win over rival Riverton, had the Tigers tasted
the fruits of victory.
Until now.
After 22 games of near misses, blowouts and everything else
imaginable on a football field, Lander has posted the win.
The contest on Friday was an old-school defensive battle
for the entire first half, with the Tigers bossing possession without tangible results on the scoreboard.
Following a pair of first downs on the Outlaws’ opening
drive of the evening, the Lander defense made its first stop of
many to come on the night when Treyton Martinsen and Sam
Rodgers combined for a stuff in the Rawlins backfield, bringing up a third-down conversion attempt, which also was
thwarted by the Lander defense.
Lander got the ball on its first possession and quickly moved
the chains courtesy of some tough running by Ryan Connell
before a false start penalty pinned the Tigers back and were
forced to punt.
What followed was a battle of field position, with both sides
trading punts, until Noah Knell dropped back to kick, only
to be handcuffed by a low snap. It threw off his timing, resulting in a blocked kick picked by the home side and returned
for an apparent touchdown before it was ruled the Outlaws’
J.D. Smith was down by contact.
According to Tiger head coach John Rounds, it was the
kind of break the Tigers have failed to get over the past three
seasons, and it’s just what they had been looking for all along.
“It was absolutely huge,” said Rounds. “The kind of thing
we haven’t seen around here in two years -- to make a mistake
and bounce back from it.”
Despite Rawlins taking over deep inside Tigers territory, the
defense held, including on a fourth-down play after the Outlaws had eschewed a field-goal attempt, which left the game
scoreless.
Breakthrough
Lander continued to make inroads on offense, while giving
up very little on defense until they got the ball to begin a drive
on their own 30-yard line nearing the end of the second quar-

ter.
Back-to-back runs by Brody Dempster and Connell set up
a third-and-5, on which Knell connected with Dempster on
a 10-yard pass play for a Tiger first down at midfield.
Connell picked up another nine yards on consecutive carries, which brought up third down and inches. Connell broke
off an eight-yard gain behind strong blocks from Martinsen
and Dempster, resulting in another first down.
Another pair of Connell runs brought up another third
down, needing five yards to move the chains. However, this
time a personal-foul call on the Outlaws moved the ball 15
yards farther down the field, giving Lander a new set of downs
on the Rawlins 15-yard line.
What happened next was a microcosm of Lander’s struggles, as a botched hand-off between Knell and Connell resulted in a 14-yard loss, pushing the Tigers offense back
outside the red zone.
Over the course of the previous 22 games, it was exactly the
kind of situation where the wheels would have come off, resulting in an implosion leading to the same snowball which
has plagued the Tigers.
However, following a five-yard pass from Knell to Dempster, Lander found itself facing another tough third-down conversion, this one 17 yards from the sticks.
A Knell pass to Anthony Schaff fell incomplete, and a drive
which had so much promise stalled.
Or, so it seemed.
Penalty markers flew, and defensive holding was called on
Rawlins, providing the visitors with a respite, albeit still staring
down the barrel of a third-and-17 on the Outlaws’ 22-yard
line.
No worries for the suddenly resilient Tigers.
A 10-yard completion from Knell to Nate Morneau set up
a 29-yard field goal attempt for Knell, who split the uprights.
Just like that, the Tigers had their first lead of the entire season.
The 15-play, 70-yard drive was exactly the kind of sustained
offensive pressure Rounds and his entire coaching staff had

Wolverines lose heartbreaker to Bearcats
❑ Douglas scored the
winning touchdown
with one second left for
a 47-42 win over the
Wolverines.
By Craig Blumenshine
Staff Writer
In one of the most exciting, yet
heartbreaking, football games ever
played at Wolverine Field, the Douglas Bearcats scored with one second
left in Friday’s homecoming game to
beat Riverton, 47-42.
Ty Larson’s 24-yard pass to Eric
Jamerman capped an incredible
fourth quarter in which 41 points
were scored.
By itself, that sounds almost
bizarre.
But, it was the game’s final 3:30
when a spectacular aerial display by
both teams resulted in four lead
changes and 27 points, leading to
the wild finish.
Maybe the scoreboard, which
didn’t function during the game,
knew what was coming.
The game-winner was Jamerman’s fourth touchdown catch from
Larson and allows Douglas to keep
its Class 3-A East record perfect at
4-0, assuring the Bearcats of the top
seed heading into the playoffs which
begin in two weeks.
For the Wolverines, after coming
back from a 21-point second-quarter deficit and electrifying the crowd
with a go-ahead score with 1:18 remaining, the loss was difficult and
emotional.
Instead of being in a three-way tie
for first in the league, the loss locks
Riverton into third place in Class 3A East and will assure the Wolverines will play their first playoff game
on the road in two weeks at either
Star Valley, Green River or Powell if
RHS wins its final game against
Lander.
“As long as there is time on the
clock, we have a chance,” said Riverton head coach Pat Patterson. “We
have got to get over this. We have a
lot of emotions, and we had great
execution. We played with a lot of
heart, but we’re upset. We had the
game won twice.”
Early struggles
As exciting as the end of the game
was, Riverton struggled early.
Quarterback Brady Fullerton’s
third pass was a pick-six for Bearcat
Gage Pitt and gave Douglas early
momentum.
In fact, the Bearcats rattled off
two more touchdowns, including
Larson’s first scoring hookup with
Jamerman, a 29-yard pass into the
north end zone into coverage that
eerily foreshadowed what would
play out in the game’s final seconds.
But Riverton found its stride, and
its heart, midway through the second quarter.
Nic Fenton, who has become
Riverton’s most reliable rusher,
stretched across the goal line on a 9yard run up the middle and through
traffic for Riverton’s first score.
Moments later, with a Riverton
coach yelling, “Back up, Draper,”
the strategy paid off. Jaren Draper
got the second pick-six of the night,

to play before falling on a last-second Douglas touchdown.

this time stepping in front of a Larson pass for a 25-yard return for
touchdown, and Riverton was back
in the game.
“Our kids started to play tough,”
said Patterson.
Fourth-quarter fireworks
Both teams traded touchdowns
in the third quarter, but the game’s
tenor amped up measurably in the
fourth quarter when Fullerton, who
continues to put up amazing passing stats and completed 21of 35 for
327 yards, found Kylan Shultz with
a four-yard touchdown pass which
gave Riverton its first lead at 28-27.
When the game got interesting,
both teams were asking the on-field
referees for the official time frequently.
“I don’t like not seeing the scoreboard,” Patterson said from the sidelines.
Douglas started with great field
position at its own 39-yard line after
a short kickoff and scored just seven
plays later, when Larson found
Jamerman again for a 34-yard scoring strike and the lead.
Well, Fremont County, our long
national nightmare is finally at an
end.
The Lander Valley High School
Tigers finally snapped their 22game regular-season losing streak
with a 19-0 road victory over
Rawlins on Friday.
Congrats and full credit to head
coach John Rounds, his coaching
staff and most of all, of course, the
players.
Every week for nearly three full
seasons, the Green and Black was
left to shake off yet another defeat
— some close ones, but many
blowouts.
However, this season has been a
different story, as the Tigers have
been in close games (14-12 at
Worland and 27-25 at Douglas, in
particular), but still kept finding a
way to shoot themselves in the
foot.
However, like the Little Engine
That Could, they finally crested
the hill at Outlaw Stadium on a
windy evening, which blew away
the ghosts of failure.
Lander not only took its first
lead of the season, but never trailed
and stayed in complete control
from start to finish.
In fact, some of the very calamities which usually befall the Tigers
instead occurred at the Outlaws’
expense.
Undisciplined penalties and
turnovers at inopportune times,
plus not being able to capitalize of
opposition mistakes were only a
few of the factors which led to the
home team’s demise.
Even when the Tigers did commit errors of their own, which left
Rawlins in business to score, the
Lander defense stepped up and
shut the Outlaws down.
Most impressive of all was the
15-play, 70-yard scoring drive
which resulted in the contest’s only
first-half points, a field goal which
gave LVHS a 3-0 halftime lead.
The long, winding, time-consuming march down the gridiron
was indicative of the perseverance
the Tigers have needed to show
over the course of the streak,
fraught with successes cancelled
out by failures.
Only this time, everything
worked out with points on the
board.
One had the feeling it was indeed the Tigers’ night.
Everything they had failed to do
in other games, they were executing to perfection — offense, defense, special teams — it was all
there.
One thing which isn’t there anymore is the streak.
Good riddance.
But, Riverton fought right back
as Fullerton picked apart one of the
best pass defenses in Class 3-A,
completing passes to Teron Doebele, Draper, Shultz and Kyren
Higgs before taking it in himself
from two yards out and putting
Riverton back in front.
Coming into Friday’s battle,
Douglas yielded just 58 yards per
game passing.
Douglas, unable to run the ball
with consistency, took back to the
air.
Speaking of streaks, lost in the
shuffle of the Wyoming Indian
boys cross country squad looking
to extend its 12-season state championship winning run this season
has been the consistent performances on the trails of the Lady
Chiefs, in particular Charlene
Brown.
At the Class 2-A West regional
meet in Ethete on Thursday,

Indians top Blue Jays, take 2-0 ALCS lead
CLEVELAND — Indians pitching carved up one
AL East offensive powerhouse in the American League
Division Series. Now, two games into the American
League Championship Series, the group is doing the
same to another hard-hitting AL East lineup.
Less than 24 hours after ace Corey Kluber and two
relievers shut out the Blue Jays, Josh Tomlin and three
relievers shut them down again in the Indians’ 2-1 victory Saturday in front of 37,870 at Progressive Field, a
crowd that included LeBron James and most of his
teammates from the NBA champion Cavaliers.
The Indians, who got a second-inning home run
from Carlos Santana and a two-out RBI single from
Francisco Lindor in the third inning that snapped a 11 tie, took a 2-0 lead in the best-of-seven ALCS, which
shifts to Toronto for Monday night’s Game 3.
“The pitching has been great on both sides,” said
Blue Jays manager John Gibbons, whose team fell behind the Royals 0-2 in last year’s ALCS before falling
in six games. “That’s all there is to it … We play well at
home. Get in front of our crowd, maybe that will energize us and maybe get some things going. But our
back’s against the wall, that’s pretty obvious.”
Toronto entered the series having hit 10 homers and
outscored the opposition 27-12 in its first four games
of the postseason, but the Blue Jays have been
outscored 4-1 and have not homered in the first two
games of this series. They had only three hits and struck
out 13 times in Game 2 and are 10-for-63 (.159) with
25 strikeouts in the first two games.
A big part of that is increasingly untouchable and
outright filthy reliever Andrew Miller. The left-hander,
obtained from the Yankees for prospects before the
Aug. 1 non-waiver trade deadline, recorded 10 of those
strikeouts in 32/3 innings, fanning five in 12/3 innings
Friday night and five in two innings Saturday. He has
struck out 17 and walked two in 72/3 innings in four
postseason outings.
“What he’s done in October so far,” said Cody Allen,
who earned his second save of the series with a perfect
ninth, “I don’t think any of us have ever seen it.”
Cleveland is 5-0 against Boston and Toronto during
this postseason.
Tomlin, who originally was scheduled to start Game
3 before Trevor Bauer suffered a lacerated right pinkie
while repairing a drone Friday morning and was
pushed back to Monday, more than handled the flipflop. The right-hander, a fly-ball pitcher who allowed
36 homers in 29 starts this season, limited the Blue Jays
to one run and three hits in 52/3 innings.
Toronto left-hander J.A. Happ, 20-4 with a 3.18
ERA this season, was on as well, allowing two runs and
four hits in five innings.
Tomlin, who struck out six, retired nine straight before walking Jose Bautista with two outs in the sixth.
Bryan Shaw replaced him and got Troy Tulowitzki to
ground out. Miller struck out the side in the seventh
and two of three in the eighth to set up Allen.
“Our job is to stand there until Tito (Terry Francona) walks out and takes the ball from us,” Tomlin
said. “We have all the confidence in everyone in that
bullpen to come in and shut the door.”
Santana, who tied Mike Napoli for the club high in
homers (34) during the regular season, led off the second with a line-drive homer to left, improving the DH
to 5-for-11 in his career against Happ.
Toronto, which went 0-for-5 with runners in scoring
position and stranded eight Friday, tied it in the third
when Josh Donaldson improved to 12-for-24 in the series with an RBI double.
The Indians immediately regained the lead in the
bottom half of the inning. Lindor, who hit a two-run
homer in Game 1, contributed a two-out RBI single
to break a 1-1 tie, making him 7-for-18 in the playoffs
to that point.
“Toronto, they have a very good team,” Santana said.
“We cannot take any chances. We have to keep playing.”

one of several underclassman contributing to the Wolverine attack this season. RHS lost Saturday
to the same Cody team, this time on the road.

Former Jets DT Byrd killed in car crash

Dennis Byrd, the former Jets defensive lineman
who was paralyzed during a game in 1992 but defied
doctors’ predictions that he would never walk again,
died Saturday in a two-vehicle collision north of
Claremore, Okla., according to the Oklahoma Highway Patrol. He was 50.
According to the Tulsa World, Byrd was involved
in a collision that sent two others to the hospital in
critical condition.
A 17-year-old from Claremore driving a 2000 Ford
Explorer northbound on Oklahoma 88 swerved into
the oncoming lane and struck a 2004 Hummer H2
driven by Byrd, who was pronounced dead at the
scene.
Byrd suffered a paralyzing neck injury in a game

AFC West leaders Raiders host Chiefs
Call it a sixth sense in Week 6, but there are a
lot of questionable spreads.
The Bengals getting nearly 10 points at New
England?
The Titans and Bills laying seven and nine
points, respectively? Even though they’re hosting
the Browns and 49ers, it feels odd to see them favored by more than a touchdown, doesn’t it?
And why are the Falcons getting almost a
touchdown at Seattle?
Sometimes, it’s better not to question Vegas.
But some of it feels like a big overreaction on
their part to last week’s games.
Underdogs went 7-5-1 last week, raising their
season record to 43-31-2. A few of them have a
good chance to win outright.
RAVENS (3-2) AT GIANTS (2-3)
When the Giants and Ravens watched game
tape of each other this week, it probably felt as if
they were looking at themselves on offense.
While Eli Manning and his receivers have been
in a funk during a three-game losing streak, so
too has the Ravens’ offense, which looked so lackluster at home last week that coach John Harbaugh fired his offensive coordinator. That kind
of move sometimes can spark a team (just ask the
Bills), but the Giants’ desperation plus being at
home gives them the edge in this one. Expect a
close, back-and-forth game that may have a couple of lead changes in the fourth quarter. When
does a Baltimore game not feature a close finish?
This is essentially a toss-up game — home team
laying a field goal — but you have to think Manning will get it going with Odell Beckham Jr.,
Victor Cruz and Sterling Shepard as Big Blue
tries to keep pace with the NFC East race.
The pick: Giants
EAGLES (3-1) AT REDSKINS (3-2)
Eagles-Redskins is always exciting, and this
one should be, too. Carson Wentz lost for the
first time as a pro, and that may be a good thing.
The Eagles’ offensive play-calling is one of the
smartest in the game, and they’ll have success
against a Redskins defense that’s allowing nearly
400 yards per game. Washington has won three
in a row, but at times still has looked like the 02 team. Wentz and Philly’s defense bounce back
on the road.
The pick: Eagles
PANTHERS (1-4) AT SAINTS (1-3)
The only thing missing from Carolina’s Super
Bowl hangover is guest appearances by Zach Galifianakis and Bradley Cooper. Cam Newton returned to practice, and as long as their star is
ready to go, you have to think the Panthers will
go all out to avoid a 1-5 start. The Saints are off
a bye, but they’re 0-2 at home this season while
allowing 35 and 45 points. Newton and Carolina
return to their super form.
The pick: Panthers
BENGALS (2-3) AT PATRIOTS (4-1)
After Tom Brady threw his own “Welcome
Back” party last week in Cleveland, the Patriots
are “on to Cincinnati.” The Bengals fell behind
28-0 at Dallas last week, and are in danger of
falling too far behind the Steelers in the AFC
North race. This line feels like a total overreaction
from last week’s results. The Bengals have too
much talent to be getting this many points, even
at New England for Brady’s home debut. A desperate Cincy team keeps it close.
The pick: Bengals
BROWNS (0-5) AT TITANS (2-3)
The Browns have beaten the Titans in each of
the last two seasons, and this is the most winnable
game on their schedule as they try to stop the 016 talk. Tennessee is 0-2 at home. This is another
total overreaction from last week’s big road win.
No way should the Titans be favored by this
much against anyone. Cleveland has given their
all every week for coach Hue Jackson, and that
effort should result in an easy cover.
The pick: Browns
JAGUARS (1-3) AT BEARS (1-4)
Things are finally looking up for the Jaguars.
After an 0-3 start, they got a big win in London,
and now are refreshed after the bye week and
have a very winnable game in Chicago. This
should be close, but bank on the Jags’ young
playmakers to do just that: make plays.
The pick: Jaguars
STEELERS (4-1) AT DOLPHINS (1-4)
The Steelers’ four wins are by an average of 19plus points, and they should have no trouble
against a Miami team that just allowed 30 points
at home to the Titans. After back-to-back big
wins at home, the Steelers could experience a letdown, but it’s more likely they’ll win by double
digits.
The pick: Steelers
49ERS (1-4) AT BILLS (3-2)
After an 0-2 start, the only person who
would’ve believed the Bills could be favored by
more than a touchdown would’ve been Rex
Ryan, of course. But that’s what happens when a
team wins three in a row (including a shutout at
New England) and now hosts a 49ers team on a
four-game skid. Colin Kaepernick gets the start,
but this is a bad spot as he tries to get accustomed
to a new offense against a Ryan-coached defense.
Throw in the long flight for a 1 p.m. start and it
adds up to Buffalo improving to 3-0 vs. the NFC
West.
The pick: Bills
RAMS (3-2) AT LIONS (2-3)
These are two of the toughest teams to figure
out. Each week is a clean slate, so just take a practical approach: The Lions are home, have the better quarterback and the Rams average an

the two were rushing toward quarterback Dave Krieg.
He underwent months of intensive physical therapy
and followed through on his vow to walk again.
Byrd made an emotional return to the Meadowlands for the Jets’ opening game in 1993 and walked
to the middle of the field as an honorary captain for
the coin toss.
He was presented at halftime with a trophy for the
Jets’ Most Inspirational Player Award, which has subsequently been called the Dennis Byrd Award.
He wrote a memoir, “Rise and Walk: The Trial and
Triumph of Dennis Byrd,” detailing his recovery that

Wranglers dominate Chiefs, 67-6
❑ Wyoming Indian
scored their first points
of the season in a road
loss to Shoshoni.
By Randy Tucker
Staff Writer
A pair of milestones took place at
Shoshoni on Friday afternoon in the
Wranglers’ last home game of the
regular season. The Wranglers are in a position
to take home-field advantage in the
playoffs beginning in two weeks and
the Chiefs scored for the first time
this season.
Shoshoni routed Wyoming Indian, 67-6 and moved to 3-0 in
conference in the process. They can take the first place seed
out of the Class 1-A West with a
win at Cokeville on Friday.
Wyoming Indian cracked the
scoring barrier for the first time on
a 70-yard third period jaunt by
sophomore Hiissiis Goodnight. Shoshoni dominated from start
to finish, taking a 40-0 advantage
after one period en route to a 46-0
half time lead.
Shoshoni senior J.J. Pingetzer
scored just three minutes into the
game on a 27-yard power run followed by a Jason Thoren score just
10 seconds later after Zac Pickinpaugh recovered a Wyoming Indian
fumble on the ensuing kickoff.
The Chiefs couldn’t hang onto
the ball and Coleter Jordan scooped
up a Wyoming Indian miscue before picking up a wall of blockers for
an apparent touchdown, but the
score would have to wait after a
block-in-the-back penalty and
Patrick Cornell took the ball in on
a 16-yard run two plays later.
Jordan tallied his own score after
a three-and-out by the Chiefs on the
next series via an eight-yard run before Thoren crossed the goal line a
second time on a 25-yard rumble up
the middle of the field.
Freshman Lucas Juan-Pedro
scored his first varsity touchdown as
the opening period clock hit one
second on a 41-yard romp through
the Wyoming Indian secondary that
featured a cutback and a couple of
high- step moves through diving
Chiefs tacklers.
The opening period ended with
Shoshoni leading 40-0.
Scoring slowed in the second
with just a single score by German
exchange student Fynn Denecke on
a five-yard plunge.
Shoshoni head coach Tony
Truempler set a goal of getting all of
his seniors to score on the final regular season game of their careers and
he accomplished it with Gary Medicine Cloud scoring on a two-yard
run in the third period and Pickinpaugh dragging tacklers on a 34yard scoring run in the final
quarter. Senior Cole Cash caught a conversion pass from Wade Cornell to
round out the scoring at 67 points.
The highlight for Wyoming Indian came in the fourth period
when Goodnight took the snap off
left tackle, turned the ball up the
east sideline and sprinted 70 yards
for the Chiefs’ first score of the season.
Games at Cokeville are always
difficult and Friday’s tilt will be
more challenging with junior running back Wyatt Ramsey out for the
season with a broken leg. Senior Anthony Cousineau
broke his hand against Rocky
Mountain last Friday and is questionable for action against the Panthers.
Wyoming Indian concludes the
season next Friday against Rocky
Mountain at Cowley.
It’s an overused adage in sports, but the game was
closer than the score would indicate.
Wind River fell 48-6 to the visiting Cokeville Panthers on Friday night in Pavillion, but on many of those
scoring plays, the Cougars were their own worst enemies.
Wind River showed flashes of maturity and gave the
Panthers a solid game in spite of the lopsided score.
The Cougars took the opening kickoff, quickly moving up the field on a 21-yard pass from Dillon Cachelin to Ryan Jordan, followed by runs of 27 and 19 yards
by John Thoman and Morgan Miller that set up a firstand-goal at the 3-yard-line, but Cokeville’s goal-line defense is among the best in the state.
Jordan Kline tried two jet sweeps, but lost seven on
the first attempt and five more on the second .
The drive ended with Rick Nate and Trenton King
swarming over Cachelin for a sack on 18-yard line.
Cokeville scored on a three-yard plunge by Nate
after a short drive aided by missed tackles in the Panthers backfield.
Offensively, Wind River moved the ball a few yards,
then allowed tackles-for-loss in the loss of concentration common to young football teams. Most series ended with senior Taylor Tidzump punting the ball.
Defensively, Wind River played well, forcing the
Panthers to turn the ball over on downs at the 17-yardline, but giving them the short field after a long punt
return late in the first.
Trailing 13-0 entering the second period, the
Cougars had to punt again, but in one of the best special teams plays of the season, Jordan and Miller drilled
Nate as he caught Tidzump’s punt from their respective
bullet positions.
Cokeville is a running team that rarely throws, but
in a tribute to good run defense by the Cougars, the
Panthers went to the air and scored on a 22-yard pass
from Bentley Johnson to Jakob Harmon.
The scoring pass made the Cougars play balanced
defense instead of selling out to stop the run and Nate
scored twice more in the period, the first on an 18-yard
run and the second on a 71-yard punt return.
The Panthers threw the ball often in the final moments of the half, but Kyle Laird broke up one pass and
Kline another.
As the clock dropped under a minute, Jordan caught
a 60-yard pass on a fly pattern from Cachelin and the
Cougars were on the 5-yard line, but Logan Marable
ripped the ball out of Cachelin’s hands on a quarterback
sneak and the Panthers ran out the first half.
Cage Vogel recovered a Cokeville fumble on the 37yard line and Kline gained 11 on a pass from Cachelin
to spark the Cougars in the third.
Runs by Vogel, Miller and Thoman set up another
first-and-goal, but Antheny Petersen recovered a
Thoman fumble on the 4-yard-line and the drive
ended.
Lochlyn Teichert scored on a four-yard run with a
minute left in the third for a 41-0 Panthers lead and
disaster struck again for Wind River seconds later.
The kickoff bounced off the top of Thoman’s helmet
and Sam Dayton pulled it out of the air for Cokeville.
The play set up a five-yard run by Matt Thomas and
the 48-0 score put the running clock in play for the
final 10 minutes of the game.
The Cougars found the end zone on the next series
on a 49-yard pass from Cachelin to Kline.
Wind River can make the playoffs with the fourth
seed out of the west if they can win at Saratoga on Friday.
Cokeville will finish in either a tie for first with a win
over Shoshoni or in third if they lose to the Wranglers.

Rams shoot down Eagles
❑ Dubois demolished
St. Stephen’s by a final
score of 76-7.
By Randy Tucker
Staff Writer
Dubois picked up their second
win of the season in a big way at St.
Stephen’s on Friday afternoon. The Rams built a 42-0 lead early
in the second period and rolled to a
76-7 win over the Eagles.
The win lifted the Rams to 2-3 in
the West conference with the final
game of the regular season against
winless Ten Sleep next weekend.
“The guys came out and played
well,” said Dubois head coach David
Trembly. “It was good to get on the
winning side of things.”
St. Stephen’s dropped their fifth
straight game and stand at 1-4 in
league play.
Dubois senior Brock Baker had a
field day in the opening minutes,
scoring three quick touchdowns.
The first came on a 13-yard run
with Warren Johnson adding the
conversion kick.
Baker is the onside-kick specialist
for the Rams and Dubois covered
three of their four onside attempts in
the opening half.
Kyle Eulberg intercepted an Eagles
pass at the 29-yard-line and Baker
scored on the next play for a 16-0
Dubois lead.
Baker’s third score, this one from
40 yards out, came on a pass from
Johnson after Wade Beavers covered
the onside kick.
Dubois ran a double-reverse option twice in the first half with Johnson having the choice of run or
throw, tucked the ball and raced 62
yards, weaving through Eagles defenders for 28-0 advantage.
Baker finished the first-period
flurry on a 14-yard scoring run.
Dubois tallied another quick
touchdown through the air with
Connor Hudson tossing the ball to
Johnson on a 31-yard catch-and-run.
Johnson hit the crossbar squarely
on the ensuing kick attempt and it
caromed off the bar for no points.
St. Stephen’s found the end zone
on a four-yard run by David Dewey
that cut the margin to 42-7, but
Dubois reeled off 34 unanswered
points in the final 22 minutes of play
for the win.
Garret Jungck scored on a fouryard run to end the first half scoring
on runs of 40 and 19 and Baker
adding a 45-yard scamper in the
third.
The final score came on a 24-yard
pass to Johnson from Beavers.

Douglas’ Brayden Hunsicker (10) attempted to elude the
Wolverines’ Brodie Roden (4) and Kyren Higgs (2) during Riverton’s 47-42 home loss to the Bearcats on Friday.
Photo by Craig Blumenshine
RHS
Larson ping-ponged completions to Jamerman, who finished
the game with 10 catches and 198
yards, and Pitt in front of Riverton’s
defensive backs.
Larson’s 49-yard touchdown to
Pitt quieted the good crowd at
Wolverine field and again, gave
Douglas a lead at 41-35 with just
1:38 remaining on the official’s onfield clock.
However, the game was far from
over.
The Wolverines reached into
their playbook and executed a perfect hook-and-lateral play for the
second time this season.
At the Douglas 35-yard line,
Fullerton popped a pass to Doebele, who lateraled to Higgs.
The wrinkle was Higgs, instead
of running outside, was coming
back inside as he took the lateral
and turned it on up the middle of a
surprised Douglas defense.
The result was 50-yard gain, a
screaming crowd, and a first down
at the 15-yard line.
On the next play, Fullerton hit
Draper for a touchdown and the
loyal Wolverines fans, already in a
frenzy, turned it up even more.
“I was worried there might be
too much time on the clock,” said
Patterson.
His worry came true.
Fullerton’s kick sailed out of
bounds, gave Douglas decent field
position at the Douglas 35-yard line,
and it took the Bearcats only six plays
to turn the tables on the Wolverines
for good.
Larson found Jamerman over the
middle twice, sandwiched between
two completions to Trenton
Williams.
Then, from Riverton’s 23-yard
line, Larson lofted his last pass to
Jamerman, who was one yard into
the end zone, but in front of two
Wolverines defenders.
The 6-foot-1 senior out-jumped
Riverton’s defensive backs for the
winning touchdown.
“I was thinking we had the kids to
do it and they proved it. That’s all I
can say,” said Douglas head coach Jay
Rhoades. “Eric Jamerman making
that play, that is just him. Ty put it
up and let Eric come down with it.”

NFL
NFL-worst 284.2 yards and 16.4
points per game.
The pick: Lions
FALCONS (4-1)
AT SEAHAWKS (3-1)
At this point, the Falcons might
as well have a picture of Rodney
Dangerfield’s face on their helmets.
This teams gets no respect. After
winning at Denver last week and
running up the score the week before at home against Carolina, Atlanta once again finds itself as an
underdog. That’s not a surprise because the game is in Seattle, but
nearly a touchdown? Seems kind of
high, which, of course, should always be a warning sign. The pick:
Falcons
COWBOYS (4-1)
AT PACKERS (3-1)
Playing at Lambeau Field will be
the biggest test for Dallas rookies
Dak Prescott and Ezekiel Elliott.
But the quarterback/running back
duo showed last week in a dominant
win over the Bengals that they’re the
real deal. Despite a 3-1 start, Green
Bay has a suspect defense, and Dallas should be able to move the ball
behind its dominant offensive line.
If the Cowboys head into their bye
at 5-1, expect the “who should start
when Tony Romo is ready?” questions to really intensify.
The pick: Cowboys
LOCK OF THE WEEK
CHIEFS (2-2)
AT RAIDERS (4-1)
This is a great spot for the Chiefs,
who have won five of their last six
against the Raiders. Kansas City is
off a bye, and will have had two
weeks to stew over an embarrassing
29-point loss at Pittsburgh in prime
time. When a good team loses the
way the Chiefs did, they tend to
bounce back the next game. Key
stat: Andy Reid is 15-2 the week
after the bye as a coach. Expect the
Chiefs to regroup against a Raiders
team that is not as good as their
record. Oakland’s four wins are by a
combined 12 points, including a
pair of one-pointers.
The pick: Chiefs
COLTS (2-3)
AT TEXANS (3-2)
This is Houston’s chance to show
it’s ready for prime time. Indy has
owned its AFC South foe, going 235 overall against them. If that is to
change, Brock Osweiler needs to
start living up to his huge offseason
contract. Lucky for him, the Colts’
defense has been just as invisible, allowing the most points per game at
Chiefs
line like lightning and never
looked back on the way to a dominant performance, winning the
girls race handily by over a minute
in a time of 20:56.
In fact, the Lady Chiefs claimed
six of the top 10 spots in the finishing order to capture the team
crown, as well, thanks to the additional efforts of Alexcia Bell
(fourth), Denaira Hiwalker (seventh), Singing Brook Willow
(eighth), Morning Gambler
(ninth) and Joely Trosper (10th).
A special shout-out to Kayle Addison of St. Stephen’s, who finished fifth as the only Lady Eagle
in the race.
In case you still missed it, I really dig cross country and so, was
bummed when the Chiefs were
forced to cancel their invitational
this season due to lack of participation from other schools.
However, my spirits were certainly buoyed by the fact the regional meet would be held on the
beautiful, natural-terrain course on
he school’s campus.
No golf carts necessary.
It’s also a very spectator-friendly
circuit, where one can watch the
start and the finish with a nice
mid-race vantage point in between
without having to race oneself.
Not to mention wildlife.
I’d hoped to meet up with my
equine acquaintances from last
year, but instead had to settle for a
herd of cows grazing in an adjacent
field to the racecourse.
No wild horses for me.
Oh, well — it was still a great
event.
Very cool, indeed.
29.6. Houston has won and covered
all three of its home games. DeAndre Hopkins could be in store for a
monster game.
The pick: Texans
JETS (1-4) AT
CARDINALS (2-3), 8:30 p.m.
Todd Bowles returns to Arizona,
where he was the defensive coordinator for two seasons before taking
the Jets’ job. Back then, he didn’t
have to make the tough calls on offense. It’s still hard to fathom Bowles
electing to punt on fourth-and-2
from the Jets’ 46 with more than 7
minutes left and the Jets trailing by
11 last week at Pittsburgh. Such a
mind-boggling move means its time
to Google the famous Herm Edwards speech: YOU PLAY TO
WIN THE GAME. HELLO?!
YOU PLAY TO WIN THE
GAME. YOU DON’T PLAY TO
JUST PLAY IT. If the Jets want to
avoid a 1-5 start, they need to “go
for it” every chance they get. Ryan
Fitzpatrick and Brandon Marshall
know what’s at stake here, and the
Jets’ desperation will kick in. Carson
Palmer is expected to play, but he’s
looked shaky and the Jets’ defensive
line could get after him. Gut feeling
says the Jets not only cover this
spread but win outright. Jets 24,
Cardinals 21 on a late Nick Folk
field goal.
The pick: Jets

hereby given of the Application of Rocky Mountain Power (RMP or the Company), for
authority to adjust the Category 2 and 3 Demand-Side Management Surcharge Rates
in Electric Service Schedule No. 191 – Customer Efficiency Service Charge.
RMP is a public utility as defined in Wyo. Stat. § 37-1-101(a)(vi)(C), subject to the
On September 30, 2016, RMP filed its Application requesting authority to adjust the
non-residential small general service (Category 2) and non-residential large general
service (Category 3) Demand-Side Management Surcharge Rates in Electric Service
Schedule No. 191 – Customer Efficiency Service Charge. The Company is proposing
in the alternative to either: [i] adjust the Schedule 191 Category 2 and 3 rates to 2.37%
and 0.76%, respectively, if effective January 1, 2017, or, [ii] adjust the Schedule 191
Category 2 and 3 rates to the percentage amounts provided in Table 2 to the Application,
depending on the approved effective date. RMP states that as of August 2016, the balancing account for Categories 2 and 3 are under-collected with balances of approximately of $1.26 million and $724,000, respectively, owing to the Company. Taking into
account the current under-collected balances and the forecast DSM expenditures
through December 2017, RMP states that the longer the current rates remain in effect,
the greater the under-collected balances will be for Categories 2 and 3. To address the
under-collected balances, RMP states an increase in rates is necessary to bring the
balances down to an acceptable level. In order to lessen the impact on customers and
keep rate increases to a minimum, RMP is proposing to recover the under-collected
balances over a sixteen month period, using the forecast balance six months out from
the effective date of the increase rates.

Byrd
Byrd suffered a fractured C-5 vertebra when colliding with Mersereau’s chest after Krieg stepped up
to avoid being sacked.
He crumpled to the turf and lay motionless for
several minutes before being carted off and taken to
Lenox Hill Hospital in Manhattan.
The team’s trainer at the time, Bob Reese, said
after the game that Byrd told him he couldn’t move
his legs, although he had partial use of his arms. “He
said he hit his head, but couldn’t remember how,”
Reese said.
The Jets were devastated afterward.
“Any time you see a guy lying on the field like that,
it’s got to affect you,” Jets coach Bruce Coslet said
after the game. “When I was playing, one of my
teammates, Ken Dyer, tackled John Brockington in
Green Bay and ended up lying in the hospital at
Green Bay for 10 months. It was a flashback situation
for me. We hope you don’t jump to any conclusions
about Dennis. He’s one tough son of a gun.”
Mersereau, who was close to Byrd at the time of
the injury, told a reporter after the game that he had
the wind knocked out of him by the collision. He returned to the game shortly after the play.
“I didn’t know who hit me, but obviously it was
Dennis,” Mersereau said.
“At the last second I saw something coming. He
hit me in the sternum. It was pretty hard. It was
enough to bend me over backwards.
“It knocked the wind out of me. I had no knowledge of what was going on initially, because I was
gasping for air. It wasn’t until later when I came off
on the sideline that I saw them take him away.”
As it turned out, Mersereau was injured on the
play, suffering several spinal fractures that eventually
ended his NFL career at age 29.
In a 2012 interview with ESPN.com, Mersereau
recalled his first visit to the hospital to see Byrd.
“Worried about me,” Mersereau said of Byrd’s
mindset.
“I can’t forget that. It brings a tear to my eye now.
He was worried about how I was taking it, and there
he was. I’m walking around and he’s in bed, paralyzed
at that point. I’d like to think I’m that strong, but I’m
not so sure that would be the case.”
Byrd frequently went on speaking tours to discuss
his recovery, but eventually shied away from public
appearances and only infrequently kept in touch with
former teammates.
He did, however, speak to the Jets before a playoff
game against the Patriots in 2011. Several Jets players
said Byrd’s message inspired them in what turned out
to be a dramatic victory over the heavily favored Patriots in the AFC divisional playoffs.
The Jets retired his No. 90 during the 2012 football season.
Byrd, who lived in rural Talala, Okla., is survived
by his wife, Angela, and four children.

The following items in the Signature File were reviewed: 1) Official Bond and Oath for Fremont County Treasurer Scott Harnsberger;
and 2) Record of Proceedings. Larry Allen moved, Travis Becker seconded, to acknowledge, pursuant to W.S. 18-3-515, the receipt

moved, Andrea Clifford seconded, to ratify the Wyoming Cultural Trust Fund Grant Application on behalf of the Fremont County
Historic Preservation Commission in the amount of $11,356.00 for the Simpson Lake Lodge project. Motion carried unanimously.
Larry Allen moved, Ray Price seconded, to approve a Proxy for Annual Election, 2016, for LeClair Irrigation District to Gerald Korell
for the reconvened annual meeting. Motion carried unanimously. Vice-Chairman Becker asked the Board to consider the proxy vote
for next year to go to the lessee of the Major property. Larry Allen moved, Ray Price seconded, to approve an Amendment to the
Memorandum of Understanding with BLM to include the Wyoming County Commissioners Association in the Sagebrush Focal Area
Withdrawal Environmental Impact Statement Project Memorandum of Understanding. Motion carried unanimously.
The following items in the Priority Mail were reviewed: 1) Shoshone National Forest News Release regarding Government Cooperator
meeting that will focus on travel management on October 26, 2016 in Thermopolis (Commissioner Allen will attend); 2) Invitation
from Wyoming Catholic College to attend the annual dinner ñ Trigger 2, on October 22, 2016 at the Lander Community Center; 3)
Notice of vacancy on the board of the Fremont County Predatory Animal Board (presently being advertised); 4) Local Government
Liability Pool request for nominations for Board Vacancies (Chairman Thompson stated a Hot Springs County Commissioner has already been nominated who has experience so no new nomination would be necessary).
There was nobody present for the Public Comment period.
Fremont County Planning Director Steve Baumann stated the Fremont County Planning Commission is working on some general
conditions to be applied to man camps in Fremont County. This is in conjunction with revisions being made to the Fremont County
Regular Subdivision Regulations. Baumann will research to see if an earlier document exists and draft an Appendix “Temporary
Housing/Man Camp Considerations” for the Board’s review the following meeting.
Fremont County Clerk Julie Freese and Financial Assistant Jim Anderson presented information for a preliminary budget hearing.
Dave Pendleton and Deputy County Attorney Jodi Darrough reviewed the legal process that must be completed as part of the Tunnel
Hill Road Realignment process. A Viewer must also be appointed to submit a report on the realignment, and Steve Baumann, present
in the audience, agreed to act as Viewer. Ray Price moved, Travis Becker seconded, to approve Resolution No. 2016-25 “Alteration
and Partial Vacation of Tunnel Hill Road and Alteration of South Muddy Road” and to appoint Steve Baumann as Viewer. Motion
carried unanimously. The 30 day deadline for objections to be filed will be advertised and sent to adjoining landowners, said date
being the 14th day of November, 2016.
Dave Pendleton reviewed the Wyoming Canal Bridge Replacement on Diversion Dam Road. Financial Assistant Jim Anderson,
present in the audience, stated the project is under budget. Change Order No. 2 was subsequently presented for an increase of
$1,084.00 to place flowable fill concrete in the corrugated portion of the bridge deck instead of hot plant mix pavement in an effort to
provide a more uniform surface for the top lift and aid in compaction. This will also require a contract extension of seven days to
allow for set time of the fill. Travis Becker moved, Ray Price seconded, to approve Change Order No. 2. Motion carried unanimously.
Greg Roth, Warm Springs Creek Road landowner, joined Dave Pendleton to continue discussion on his earlier request to petition
the Road to be formally accepted for County maintenance. Pendleton stated he would contact Hamilton Land Surveying, Inc. for a
survey plat defining the location of the road from the intersection with existing Union Pass County Road to the first cattle guard west
of this intersection. The plat will include location of the road centerline in relationships to property lines and government section lines
and necessary legal descriptions. When all the proper documents are available, the issue will be brought back to the table.
Public Health Nurse Manager Julie Twist and interim Nurse Manager Kathy Laidlaw were present for three issues. A security recommendation for the Riverton Office, a request to use a vacant Planning Department office, and permission to hire a Maternal Child
Health Nurse. All three requests were tabled until the following week and the Board asked Twist and Laidlaw to provide a funding
recommendation for the security upgrades and financial details of the personnel requests.
County Coroner Mark Stratmoen presented a 3rd Quarter Summary.
UW Extension Coordinator Alex Malcolm was joined by Food and Nutrition Educator Laura Balis and Administrative Secretary Kim
Collins to review highlights of the 4-H Program which is now in its 102nd year in Fremont County. A Proclamation was read and
Larry Allen moved, Ray Price seconded, to Proclaim the week of October 2-8, 2016 as “National 4-H Week”. Motion carried unanimously. Malcolm then presented a plaque to Kim Collins in honor of 30 years of service to the Fremont County Extension Program.
Building Maintenance Supervisor J.R. Oakley presented information to support his recommendation to continue lighting retrofits at
the Fremont County Detention Center. Financial Assistant Jim Anderson was present in the audience and acknowledged he could
add the budget transfer to the Public Hearing advertisement.
In other business, J.R. Oakley updated the Board on vacancies at the Detention Center. He had been given approval to increase
the salary of the current Custodian (in charge of Maintenance) to entice him to stay; however, was not successful. As a result, that
resignation will be effective October 14th and a Custodial position resignation was effective October 4th. The Board requested he
rewrite the Technician II Job Description to include the required custodial duties. Ray Price moved, Travis Becker seconded, to approve advertising for the two positions as requested. Voting against the motion: Larry Allen. Motion carried.
Chairman Thompson reviewed a written request from the Fremont County Museum Director to refill a seven hour per week position
which was included as part of the FY 2016-17 budget. Ray Price moved, Andrea Clifford seconded, to approve refilling the position
as requested with the selected candidate. Voting against the motion: Vice-Chairman Becker. Motion carried.
Deputy County Attorney Jodi Darrough updated the Board on a Public Defender’s request for ambulance records as related to a
recent murder trial. Darrough has requested a copy of the actual bill and will update the Board at that time.
Fremont County Library Director JoAnn Collins and Bookkeeper Rebecca Thomas were present to propose changes in Riverton
staffing due to recent resignations, saving current and future savings to the Library’s personnel budget. They propose combining
two (20/hour/week) Custodian Maintenance positions into one full-time (40/hour/week) position. The Riverton Library will then have
one full-time and one part-time position, the same staffing as the Lander Library. Ray Price moved to approve the change as outlined.
Motion died for lack of a second. The second request is a Full time Library Assistant II who has resigned and the Library system requests permission to reorganize the position as follows: Restore eight hours to two Part-time Library Assistant II positions and hire
a 32 hour/week Library Assistant II. Ray Price moved, Travis Becker seconded, to approve the proposal to hire a 32 hour/week
Library Assistant II. Motion carried unanimously. The group will return to continue discussion on the Custodial/Maintenance position
and the other proposal to restore four hours each to two Part-time Library Assistant II positions. Commissioner Allen asked for a job
description of the Custodial/Maintenance position for review prior to the meeting.
Treasurer Scott Harnsberger joined the meeting to clarify a recent request he received from the Fremont County Recreation Commission Treasurer for cash flow money.
Commissioner meeting reports were given.
There being no further business, Travis Becker moved, Ray Price seconded, to adjourn the meeting at 12:30 p.m. and reconvene for
a Regular Meeting on October 11, 2016. Motion carried unanimously.
A full and detailed report of these official minutes is posted on Fremont County’s website at www.fremontcountywy.org.

Tigers
been looking for. Lander took the 30 lead to the halftime locker room.
“We haven’t had a 10-plus play
drive where we’ve gone down like
that and scored in two years,” said
Rounds. “We talked before the
game about how in order to do that,
we had to be more consistent. We
just kept grinding away, going
downhill, and were more physical.”
Also, the halftime lead was an
enormous boost, he said.
“We had our first lead of the season,” said Rounds. “We also knew
we were getting the ball to open the
second half and if we could get another score, we could really plant
that seed of doubt in Rawlins.”
Second half
Lander received the ball to open
the third quarter and after picking
up a first down, was forced again to
punt.
Knell dropped a kick which left
the Outlaws pinned back at their
own 2-yard-line.
Following a loss of one yard,
which pushed Rawlins against its
own goal line, Jim Fehringer
brought down Damon Taylor in the
end zone for a safety, giving the
Tigers a 5-0 advantage with 9:20 remaining in the third quarter.
The additional score seemed to
invigorate an already confident
Tigers squad and on the next possession, after having received a free
kick following the safety, the Lander
offense shifted into high gear.
Connell, Dempster
take over
Beginning with good field position on the Rawlins 45-yard-line,
Rodgers picked up three yards, with
an offside on the Outlaws moving
the ball another five, bringing up
second and two.
Connell took the ball from Knell
and sprinted through the Rawlins
defense for a 20-yard gain all the
way down to the 17-yard-line.
Only two plays later, on third
and nine, Dempster took a handoff
and rumbled 17 yards for a touchdown, with Knell’s extra point increasing the Lander lead to 12-0
with 6:30 left in the third, which is
where proceedings stood entering
the final stanza.
Rounds said the running back rotation of Rodgers, Connell, Dempster and DeAundre Velarde allowed
all four players to be more effective
on both sides of the ball.
“All of them played significant
reps,” he said. “It’s a huge advantage
to be able to get them breathers and
not lose anything.”
Fourth quarter
Lander got the ball back on
downs for its first possession of the
fourth quarter, but was forced to
punt from inside the own 20-yard
line on a third-and-15.
But, another bad snap forced
Knell to tuck the ball and desperately dash for the first-down marker,
of which he came up a single yard
short.
Then the Tiger defense stepped
up and closed the deal.
Lander forced a Rawlins fumble,
which the Tigers recovered, then
Connell picked off a pass on the
Outlaws’ next possession, which set
up a four-yard scoring run by Connell, giving the Tigers a commanding 19-0 lead. That was the final
score after Connell added a second
interception to salt away victory.
Knell and the Tigers offense simply ran out the clock and victory
was theirs.
Finally.
So, at what point did Rounds realize victory was in hand?
“After we scored to make it 19-0,
I looked at the clock and knew there
was still a lot of time,” he said. “I’m
not one to count my chickens. But,
then Ryan got another interception,
and I could breathe a bit.”
In the aftermath, the LVHS boss
was most happy for his seniors, who
had suffered through the entire losing streak.
“Our seniors have really had to
work hard for this,” he said. “It was
really special for them to be able to
get one and see the excitement and
joy on their faces.”
Connell finished with 21 carries
for 92 yards, to go along with 24 defensive points, while the Tigers
rushed for 188 yards on offense.
Lander (1-6, 1-3) will host Riverton at Bill Bush Stadium on Friday
to close the regular season.
