Crow member accused of poaching claims he was in Montana
BY PHOEBE TOLLEFSON
[email protected]
SHERIDAN — A member of the Crow
Tribe on trial for poaching said Thursday
he believed he was in Montana at the time
he took his elk, while prosecutors later
sought to undercut that assertion.
Clayvin Herrera, of St. Xavier, Montana,
faces two citations for elk taken in
Wyoming out of season in 2014. Thursday
was the second day of the poaching trial in
Sheridan County Circuit Court.
“Mr. Herrera, when you shot the elk in
question, where you in Wyoming?” his
attorney, Kyle Gray, asked him during testimony.
“No,” Herrera said.
But later Deputy County and Prosecuting
Attorney Christopher LaRosa pressed
Herrera about an article from the Billings
Gazette from Feb. 26, 2015, that stated
Herrera and his fellow hunters knew they
were in Wyoming when they shot the animals.
“I don’t think I was quoted as saying
anything,” Herrera said. He later added, “I
don’t recall saying that exact wording.”
The article quotes Herrera remembering
how his grandmother had told him never to
feel restricted about hunting in the area but
uses the reporter’s words — not a quote—
to establish that Herrera knew his location.

SC orchestra to make musical
history with first performance
BY MIKE DUNN
[email protected]
SHERIDAN — Hearing that
Sheridan College would host an
orchestra concert was music to Dr.
Mark Elliot Bergman’s ears.
When the Sheridan College music
director and the director of strings
arrived at Sheridan College this past
fall, strings, horns and other ensembles had performed on a regular
basis. But rarely did they perform
together.
That that will change this weekend. This will be the first time that
the school’s symphony orchestra
will be able to host a concert and
Bergman said he sees this as a huge
step forward for the arts community
and college alike.
“It’s the first time we will be doing
a full program all by ourselves. I’m
just thrilled with the progress the
orchestra has made, it’s really been a
combination effort community members and college students,” Bergman
said.
The orchestra will perform at 8
p.m. Saturday at the First Baptist
Church in Sheridan. The concert is
free and open to the public.
The symphony orchestra concert titled “Love, Tragedy and
Transcendence,” will have a little bit
of everything, according to Bergman.

District No. 1 Superintendent
Boyd Brown admits because
of recent layoffs in the coal
industry, the current economic climate for his district
is cause for concern. But
construction on the new high
school is moving forward, he
said.
“We have delayed some decisions and we want to use all
the time that we can to make

said in a phone interview
Wednesday, “but at this time
we have not put anything on
hold.”
A story in Wednesday’s

High School Activities
Association commissioner Ron Laird as saying,
“Apparently, construction on
the school is going to continue, but everything else (associated with the school) has
been put on hold.”
Brown confirmed that construction on Thunder Basin
High School is continuing, but
disputed the notion the school
would not be ready to open in
the fall of 2017.
“We’re moving our ninthgrade students from the junior
high to the high school level
no matter what,” Brown said.

ORCHESTRA : Saturday performance
FROM 1
Viol Consort member Jamie Newbrough tunes her instrument during practice Tuesday at Sheridan College.
The Sheridan College Symphony Orchestra’s inaugural concert is this Saturday at 8 p.m. at First Baptist
Church. It is free to the public.
The concert will include four different pieces beginning with the works
of Ludwig van Beethoven and his
famous “Egmont Overture.” Then the
symphony will transition to the works
of Georges Bizet, Aaron Copland and
Benjamin Britten throughout the program.
These works range from the 14th
century Europe to 20th century
American classics. Bergman said this
was on purpose, to give the audience a
wide variety of musical styling.
“You have a guy like Beethoven who
was an 18th century, 19th century
composer then we will have Aaron
Copland’s works, who died in 1990. So
there is quite a span there as far as the
repertoire,” Bergman said.
Likewise, each one of these pieces has a rich history behind them,
Bergman said. Perhaps one of the
more interesting of the stories is
Beethoven’s “Egmont Overature,”
which was written as a protest of
Napoleon Bonaparte’s decision to
crown himself emperor of France in
1804. Bergman said he believes that
the history behind it, not just the
music itself, will be captivating for
audiences.
“I think what is important to understand is that this isn’t any music that
we will be playing, but some of the
most enduring and impactful music in
the past 300 years that we will be playing in this program,” Bergman said.
The college’s Viol Consort will also
make an appearance.
Bergman said this program is a huge
step forward for a Sheridan community invested in its arts. This year,
Sheridan College is expected to complete the Whitney Center for the Arts,
a 48,000-square-foot building that will
include a slew of fine arts facilities
such as a state-of-the-art concert hall
which will only further the development of the orchestra in years to come.
“It’s wonderful to be a part of a growing, vibrant art and music community that has no where to go but up,”
Bergman said.
North Korea sends another US citizen to prison
PYONGYANG, North Korea (AP) — North
Korea on Friday sentenced a U.S. citizen of
Korean heritage to 10 years in prison with
hard labor after convicting him of espionage
and subversion, the second American it has
put behind bars this year.
Kim Dong Chul was sentenced after a brief
trial in Pyongyang by North Korea’s Supreme
Court, which found him guilty of espionage
and subversion under Articles 60 and 64 of the
North’s criminal code.
North Korea regularly accuses Washington
and Seoul of sending spies in an attempt to
overthrow its government. Outsiders say
North Korea seeks to use its U.S. detainees to
wring concessions from Washington.
Further details were not immediately available. When Kim was paraded before the media
in Pyongyang last month, he said he had collaborated with and spied for South Korean
intelligence authorities in a plot to
bring down the North’s leadership
and had tried to spread religion
among North Koreans before his
arrest in the city of Rason last
October.
South Korea’s National
Intelligence Service, the country’s
main spy agency, has said Kim’s
case wasn’t related to the organization in any way.
Kim’s sentencing came as North
Korea also accused U.S. soldiers
of trying to provoke its frontline
troops with “disgusting” facial
expressions and by encouraging
South Korean soldiers to aim their
guns at the North. A North Korean
military statement warned U.S.
soldiers to stop what it called “hooliganism”
at the border village of Panmunjom or meet a
“dog’s death any time and any place.”
The U.S. and South Korean militaries had no
immediate official response.
Tensions on the Korean Peninsula have
risen during weeks of annual U.S.-South
Korean military drills, which end Saturday
and are usually one of the most anxious times
on the Korean Peninsula.
North Korea has issued a steady stream of
threats to the United States and South Korea
over the drills, which it says are preparations
for an invasion.
Outside analysts say the North also hates the
drills in part because it forces the impoverished country to stage its own expensive military responses.
North Korea in recent weeks has fired a
barrage of missile and artillery shells into the
sea in a show of anger. On Thursday, South
Korean and U.S. officials said two suspected
medium-range missile launches by North
Korea ended in failure.
In March, North Korea sentenced Otto
Warmbier, an American university student, to
15 years in prison with hard labor. It said he
engaged in anti-state activities while visiting
the country as a tourist earlier this year.

US consumer s
sentiment slips in April
WASHINGTON (AP)
— The University of
Michigan says American
consumers were a bit
more downbeat in April.
The university’s index
of consumer sentiment
slid to 89 in April from
91 in March. It is the
lowest reading since
September and the
fourth straight drop. The
index stood at 95.9 a year
ago.
Consumers’ assessment of current economic conditions rose this
month from March, but
their outlook slid.
Richard Curtin,
chief economist of the
Michigan surveys, said
consumers may have
been troubled “by growing uncertainty about
the economic policies
advocated by various
presidential candidates.”
Rule would
delay
questions
about criminal
history
WASHINGTON (AP) —
The Obama administration
is proposing a rule that
would prohibit federal agencies from asking certain job
applicants questions about
criminal and credit history
until a conditional offer of
employment has been made.
The administration said
that early inquiries about
criminal history can unnecessarily narrow the pool of
qualified candidates and
make it that much harder
for those with criminal histories to support themselves
and their families.
Beth Cobert, the acting
director of the Office of
Personnel Management,
told reporters in a conference call that the rule being
proposed Friday would give
applicants from all segments
of society a “fair chance” to
compete for federal jobs. She
said that early screening for
criminal history can prematurely disqualify applicants
from consideration without
agencies checking whether
an arrest actually led to a
conviction.
The proposed rule would
cover jobs in which applicants must compete with
others in an open competition, but it won’t apply
to many of the positions
dealing with national security, intelligence and law
enforcement, Cobert said.
President Barack Obama
had already directed the
government’s personnel
office to wait until later in
the hiring process to ask
about criminal histories.
The proposed rule would
formalize that process.
Obama has intensified
efforts during the final
months of his presidency to
help the previously incarcerated. Each year, more
than 600,000 people are
released from federal and
state prisons, and millions
more are released each year
from local jails. He has said
that helping those who have
paid their debt to society
can reduce recidivism and
save taxpayer dollars.
The White House also
noted that more companies
are committing to undertaking similar efforts to
remove barriers in the
hiring of those with a
criminal record. In all, the
White House said, 112 companies and organizations
employing more than 1.5
million people have committed to ensuring that
information about criminal
history is considered in the
proper context. Microsoft,
Best Buy, Kellogg Co. and
Catholic Charities were
among those who committed
to the effort.

Congressional GOP beginning to accept Trump as nominee
BY ERICA WERNER
AP CONGRESSIONAL CORRESPONDENT
WASHINGTON (AP) — Congressional
Republicans are beginning to accept, and even
embrace, an outcome that was once unthinkable:
Donald Trump as the GOP presidential nominee.
In the wake of the businessman’s commanding wins in five Eastern states this week, a
growing number of lawmakers say that Trump
is taking on an air of inevitability. Some argue
they should get behind him now instead of trying to stand in his way, as some establishment
Republicans are still attempting to do by backing various “Never Trump” efforts.
For some lawmakers, supporting Trump
is seen as their only hope of stopping the
Democrats’ likely candidate, Hillary Clinton, in
November and ensuring a Democratic president
doesn’t fill Supreme Court vacancies.
“I don’t understand. I mean, it’s not ‘Never
Trump.’ It’s ‘Never Hillary.’ Never, never, never,
Hillary. Come on. Wake up and smell the coffee,”
said Rep. Mike Kelly of Pennsylvania, who earlier this week cast his ballot for Trump, along
with all members of his large family and 57 percent of Republican primary voters in his state.
“I’ve never seen a party attack one of its own
candidates with this aggressiveness,” Kelly
said of GOP establishment figures who oppose
Trump, blaming it on an elitist Washington attitude out of touch with voters.
Sen. Orrin Hatch of Utah, a respected senior
member of the Senate, previously endorsed Jeb
Bush and then Sen. Marco Rubio and said he
doesn’t intend to endorse Trump. But Hatch said
Thursday of Trump: “It looks to me like he’s
going to win and if he does I’m going to do everything in my power to help him.”
Some leading Republicans have forecast that a
Trump candidacy could spell electoral disaster,
help Democrats win back control of the Senate
and even cost Republicans seats in the House.
They point to Trump’s disparaging comments
about women and minorities that have contributed to high unfavorability ratings.
Hatch, along with others, disagreed.
“I think he could be great if he’ll get serious
about being president, and I think he will,”
Hatch said. “When he gets hit with reality that
this is the toughest job in the world, he’s a clever, smart guy who I think will want to be remembered for doing good things, so I have a feeling
he can make that transition.”
To be sure, not all are on board, and some
lawmakers cringe at the thought of vulnerable Senate Republicans and candidates getting
linked to Trump’s controversial stances or
attempting to distance themselves from them.
“He’s looking more inevitable, yeah. I’ve been
wrong all along,” said GOP Sen. Jeff Flake of
Arizona, an outspoken Trump critic. “My feeling
about Donald Trump is, I don’t think that that’s
our best foot forward at all. And I can’t imagine

FDA reconsiders training
requirements for painkillers
WASHINGTON (AP) — The Food and
Drug Administration is reconsidering
whether doctors who prescribe painkillers
like OxyContin should be required to take
safety training courses, according to federal
documents.
A panel of FDA advisers meets next week
to review risk-management plans put in
place nearly four years ago to reduce misuse and abuse of long-acting painkillers,
powerful opioids frequently abused for
their euphoric effects.
Under the current risk programs, drugmakers fund voluntary training for physicians in safely prescribing their medications.
However, many experts — including a
previous panel of FDA advisers — said the
measures didn’t go far enough and that
physician training should be mandatory.
The FDA will ask outside safety experts
on Tuesday what changes should be made
to improve the risk plans, according to
briefing documents posted Friday.
GILLETTE : Would compete in Class 4A
FROM 1
“We’re looking at about 2,500 students
(at the high school level) for 2017, so we’re
going to need that space. Even with the
reduction in the number of kids we think
we’re going to have next year, I don’t think
we could put all the ninth-graders in one
school.”
Laird could not immediately be reached
for comment Wednesday.
Brown added that “the school facilities
department would say that we have room
in the (current) building for 1,600 students,
so we would need fewer than 1,600 students
to put them all in one building. I don’t see
that happening, even with the downturn in
the economy.”
However, Brown did say that while the
school district has hired Dennis Holmes as
principal for the new high school, no other
hires have been made at this point. That is
consistent with what Laird said Tuesday.
“We’re going to use all the time that we
can to make some decisions on programs
and staff hiring because we know that’s
an issue,” Brown said. “And we know that
the downturn in the economy has caused
the state Legislature to reduce funding for
schools, which is another concern.
“Believe me, we’re keeping our thumb on
enrollment in the district and we’re also
keeping our thumb on costs. But at this
point, we’re still looking forward to opening two schools in the fall of 2017.”
If everything goes forward as planned,
Thunder Basin High School would compete
in Class 4A, the state’s largest classification, in all sports beginning with the 201718 school year.
being forced to take some of those positions that
he’s taken. A ban on Muslims, build a wall and
make the Mexicans pay for it, you name it.”
It remains uncertain whether Trump will
amass the 1,237 delegates needed to clinch the
nomination ahead of the Republican convention
in Cleveland in July. If he does not, Texas Sen.
Ted Cruz hopes to make a play to win the nomination as balloting progresses. Ohio Gov. John
Kasich also remains in the race.
On Capitol Hill, Cruz remains an unpopular
figure, having disparaged party leaders and led
the charge to force a 16-day partial government
shutdown in 2013 in a futile attempt to cut off
money for President Barack Obama’s health
care law.
Former House Speaker John Boehner, who
resigned last fall under conservative pressure,
lashed out at Cruz in comments published
Thursday in Stanford University’s student newspaper, calling him “Lucifer in the flesh” and
saying: “I get along with almost everyone, but I
have never worked with a more miserable son of
a bitch in my life.”
Perhaps partly because of Cruz’s unpopularity, it’s getting easier to find leading lawmakers speaking publicly in favor of Trump. On
Thursday, Trump picked up endorsements from
House committee chairmen: Bill Shuster of
Pennsylvania, who chairs the Transportation
Committee, and Jeff Miller of Florida, who
chairs Veterans Affairs.

Some humor from the newspaper meeting, regarding editorial writers:
• The editorial writer sits high on the

When the battle is over, and the smoke has
cleared, the editorial writer descends from
the mountaintop. He walks out onto the
field of battle — and shoots the wounded.

Relations Committee, called it “a very
good foreign policy speech in which he
laid out his vision for American engagement in the world.”
Engagement, eh? Trump began his
speech by invoking “America first,” a
phrase associated with opposition to U.S.
involvement in World War II. “‘America
first’ will be the major and overriding
theme of my administration,” Trump
said.
Perhaps the most unnerving promise
Trump made was his determination to
be erratic. “We must as a nation be more
unpredictable,” he said. “We have to be
unpredictable, and we have to be unpredictable starting now.”
On this vow, Trump has already made
good — and that’s just the problem.

Brinton Museum, fly shop partner
SHERIDAN — In a collaboration between The
Brinton Museum’s Museum Store and Fly Shop of
the Bighorns, fine art by Joel Ostlind, Lloyd Kelly,
David McDougall and Art Hansen now hangs on
the wall of Fly Shop of the Bighorns.
All the pieces are for sale and curated to appeal
to fly fishing enthusiasts. The etchings, letter
press prints and acrylic and oil paintings range in
price from $165-$2,800.
“When Peter Widener [owner of Fly Shop of the
Bighorns] approached me to put together a collection of fine art to sell at Fly Shop of the Bighorns,
it was a privilege to fulfill his request,” Brinton
Director and Chief Curator Ken Schuster said.
“Peter is enthusiastic about our new facility and
sees this collaboration as a way of helping spread
the word about TBM and getting more people out
to Big Horn. It’s a great opportunity to work with
a local businessman to promote the arts in the
community.
“The Brinton Museum looks forward to an ongoing partnership with Fly Shop of the Bighorns and
the diversification in patronage the collaboration
will undoubtedly bring to both venues,” he added.

NATIONAL OBITUARIES |
Les Waas, creator of the Mister
Softee jingle, dies at 94
PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Les Waas, the advertising legend behind the Mister Softee jingle heard in
hundreds of ice cream trucks for more than half a
century, has died. He was 94.
Waas died April 19 at Abington Hospice in
Warminster, according to Goldsteins’ Rosenberg’s
Raphael-Sacks funeral home.
The Mister Softee song, originally written in 1960
for the company started in his Philadelphia hometown just a few years earlier, played in the company’s ice cream trucks as a way to signal their
approach. Soon, the song became ubiquitous with
ice cream, summer and fun as the opening notes
became instantly recognizable to anyone within
earshot — sparking a craving they didn’t realize
existed.
Both loved and loathed, the jingle remains a lasting part of the collective American childhood.
The tune has also been used by competitors
to lure children out of their homes and into the
streets for frozen treats. During his advertising
career, which spanned more than five decades,
Waas wrote and produced more than 970 jingles for
advertisers, according to the Broadcast Pioneers of
Philadelphia — where he served as president and
chairman of the board.
The Mister Softee song, officially titled “Jingle
and Chimes,” is his greatest legacy. Although most
people know the notes of the twinkling, looping
cadence, the song also has lyrics, including: “The
creamiest dreamiest soft ice cream you get from
Mister Softee” and “Listen for my store on wheels
ding-a-ling down the street.”
Mister Softee has over 600 trucks and over 350
franchise dealers operating in 15 states plus China.
Waas was also known for his sense of humor.
University of Calgary psychology professor Piers
Steel wrote in a 2011 “Psychology Today” article
that in 1956, Waas and some of his fellow admen
posted a sign in a Philadelphia hotel reading, “The
procrastination’s club meeting has been postponed.” The sign drew attention from local press,
prompting Waas to eventually hold the meeting —
the start of a long-running prank. Waas served as
president of the Procrastinators Club of America,
which even today claims thousands of members.
Waas’ wife, Sylvia, died in 2006. He is survived by
his children, Sherri Waas Shunfenthal and Murry
Waas.
The Rev. Billy Kyles dies; was
present when ML King was shot
MEMPHIS, Tenn. (AP) — The Rev. Samuel Billy
Kyles, a longtime civil rights leader who was present when Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. was assassinated, has died in Memphis. He was 81.
Erica Cunningham, an administrative assistant
at Monumental Baptist Church, where Kyles was a
pastor for decades, said he died Tuesday at a hospital. An official cause of death was not immediately
released, but Cunningham said he had been living
with dementia.
King had come to Memphis in 1968 to help striking sanitation workers. At about 6 p.m. on the
night of April 4, King, Kyles and others prepared to
leave the Lorraine Motel to go to dinner.
As they stood on a balcony, a shot rang out, striking King. Kyles later told The Associated Press in
2008, “blood was everywhere.”
Today’s Highlight in
History:
On April 29, 1991, a
cyclone began striking the
South Asian country of
Bangladesh; it ended up
killing more than 138,000
people, according to the
U.S. National Oceanic and
Atmospheric Administration.
On this date:
In 1429, Joan of Arc
entered the besieged city of
Orleans to lead a French victory over the English.
In 1798, Joseph Haydn’s
oratorio “The Creation”
was rehearsed in Vienna,
Austria, before an invited
audience.
In 1861, the Maryland
House of Delegates voted
53-13 against seceding from
the Union. In Montgomery,
Alabama, President Jefferson
Davis asked the Confederate
Congress for the authority to
wage war.
In 1913, Swedish-born
engineer Gideon Sundback
of Hoboken, New Jersey,
received a U.S. patent for a
“separable fastener” — later
known as the zipper.
In 1916, the Easter Rising
in Dublin collapsed as Irish
nationalists surrendered to
British authorities.
In 1945, during World War
II, American soldiers liberated the Dachau (DAH’-khow)
concentration camp. Adolf
Hitler married Eva Braun
inside his “Fuhrerbunker”
and designated Adm. Karl
Doenitz president.
In 1946, 28 former
Japanese officials went on
trial in Tokyo as war criminals; seven ended up being
sentenced to death.
In 1957, the SM-1, the
first military nuclear power
plant, was dedicated at Fort
Belvoir, Virginia.
In 1974, President Richard
M. Nixon announced he was
releasing edited transcripts
of some secretly made White
House tape recordings related to Watergate.
In 1983, Harold
Washington was sworn in
as the first black mayor of
Chicago.
In 1992, rioting resulting
in 55 deaths erupted in Los
Angeles after a jury in Simi
Valley, California, acquitted four Los Angeles police
officers of almost all state
charges in the videotaped
beating of Rodney King.
Ten years ago: Tens of
thousands of protesters
marched through lower
Manhattan to demand an
immediate withdrawal of
U.S. troops from Iraq. Liberal
economist John Kenneth
Galbraith died in Cambridge,
Massachusetts, at age 97.
Five years ago: Britain’s
Prince William and Kate
Middleton were married
in an opulent ceremony at
London’s Westminster Abbey
amid pomp, circumstance —
and elaborate hats. President
Barack Obama visited
Tuscaloosa, Alabama, one of
the sites of deadly tornadoes
two days earlier, saying he
had “never seen devastation
like this.”
One year ago: Prime
Minister Shinzo Abe (shinzoh ah-bay) offered condolences for Americans killed
in World War II in the
first address by a Japanese
leader to a joint meeting of
Congress, but stopped short
of apologizing for wartime
atrocities. In what was
believed to be the first major
league game played without
fans in attendance, Chris
Davis hit a three-run homer
in a six-run first inning and
the Baltimore Orioles beat
the Chicago White Sox 8-2.
(The gates at Camden Yards
were locked because of concern for fan safety following
recent rioting in Baltimore.)
Thought for Today: “In
any great organization it
is far, far safer to be wrong
with the majority than to be
right alone.”
— John Kenneth
Galbraith (1908-2006).

US: China rejects Hong Kong port call by US aircraft carrier
WASHINGTON (AP) —
The State Department says
China has recently denied a
request from a U.S. aircraft
carrier for a port visit in
Hong Kong.
That appears to be a sign
of mounting tension in the
disputed South China Sea.
Defense Secretary Ash
Carter and his Philippine
counterpart visited the carrier, USS John C. Stennis,
in those waters two weeks
ago, a move that irked
Beijing.
Gabrielle Price, spokeswoman for East Asia, says
Friday the U.S. has a long
record of successful port
visits to Hong Kong, including a current visit by the
USS Blue Ridge.
The Chinese Embassy did
not immediately respond to
a request for comment.
The Hong Kong-based
South China Morning Post
quoted China’s Foreign
Ministry as saying that port
calls were examined on a
“case by case basis.”

Obama announces new steps to curb gun violence
WASHINGTON (AP) —
President Barack Obama
announced new steps
Friday to help curb gun
violence, including by
identifying the requirements that “smart guns”
would have to meet for
law enforcement agencies
to buy and use them as
well as sharing mental
health records with the
federal background check
system.
Smart guns use various
technologies to prevent
an accidental shooting or
help track down a missing
gun.
“These common-sense
steps are not going to prevent every tragedy, but
what if they prevented
even one?” Obama wrote
in a Facebook post. “We
should be doing everything we can to save lives
and spare families the
pain and unimaginable
loss too many Americans
have endured.”
As Obama unveiled
a plan last January to
expand federal background checks for gun
purchases, he directed the
Departments of Defense,
Homeland Security and
Justice to conduct or sponsor research into smartgun technology. Obama
also instructed the agencies to regularly review
the availability of such
technology and to promote
its use.
In a report released
Friday, the Justice and
Homeland Security
departments said they
expect to complete the
work of identifying the
smart-gun requirements
by October.

WASHINGTON (AP) — A
U.S. gunship attack on a
hospital in Afghanistan that
killed 42 people occurred
because of human errors,
process errors and equipment failures and that none
of the crew knew they were
striking a trauma center, a
top U.S. general said Friday.
No criminal charges
have been leveled against
U.S. military personnel
for mistakes that resulted
in last’s year’s attack on
the civilian hospital in
Afghanistan operated by
the medical charity Doctors
Without Borders. The group
has called the attack a war
crime.
Gen. Joseph Votel, the
new head of U.S. Central
Command, said that the
trauma center was on a
no-strike list but that the
gunship crew didn’t have
access to the list.

Last time they came home,
Portland and Charlotte were
still just trying to win a
game.
This time, they’re looking
to win a series.
After engineering big
turnarounds with three
straight victories, the Trail
Blazers and Hornets will be
playing for spots in the second round when they host
Game 6s on Friday night.
The tough part for them,
as Clippers coach Doc
Rivers says, is not getting
too caught up thinking
ahead with the opportunity
they have.
“It’s hard to keep your
focus in closeouts,” Rivers
said. “That’s typically why
Game 7s are played so well,
because no one is thinking
about it anymore.”
Portland can knock out
Rivers’ Clippers, while
Charlotte tries to eliminate
Miami. The Clippers and
Heat quickly got halfway to
the conference semifinals,
and now they’re just hoping
to hold on.
The Toronto Raptors can
also wrap up their series
against the Pacers — and
win a seven-game series for
the first time in franchise
history — but they’re on the
road.
The Blazers and Hornets
will be in their own buildings, trying to join the short
list of teams who have come
back from 2-0 deficits to win
a seven-game series. Only

Toronto was in this spot

a 3-2 lead to Brooklyn.
The Nets won Game 6 and
then Game 7 at Air Canada
Centre, so the Raptors know
the danger of relying on
another game at home if
they lose this one.
“You’ve got to treat this
like Game 7. You’ve got to
come out fighting,” Raptors
coach Dwane Casey said.
“We know their backs are
against the wall. We can’t
go and get ambushed. We’ve
got to go in with our high
beams on, laser-like focus
from the start of the game to
the end of the game.”
In other words, they
should play like they did in

the Raptors rallied by outscoring the Pacers 25-9 in

Thursday he’s still not over

“Whatever we’ve got to do

it’s possible. I have seen a

out, but we’re supposed to
maintain that lead whoever
is in there.”

6-year ban
by FIFA
BY GRAHAM DUNBAR
AP SPORTS WRITER
LAUSANNE, Switzerland (AP) — Michel Platini has
begun his appeal at the Court of Arbitration for Sport
against a six-year ban by FIFA over a $2 million payment approved by Sepp Blatter.
The UEFA president did not speak with reporters
Friday after arriving for an 8 a.m. (0600 GMT) closeddoor hearing expected to last at least eight hours.
A verdict could come as early as Monday, when
UEFA gathers in Budapest, Hungary, ahead of an
annual congress of 54 soccer federations who have
been without their leader for seven months.
“Hopefully it will be early next week, maybe a little
later,” CAS secretary general Matthieu Reeb said. “The
Yes, there still are some
terrific Buckeyes left in the
NFL draft, even after five
went in the first round.
There are plenty of defensive backs, too, despite
seven being chosen in the
first 25 spots.
Perhaps most intriguing:
Alabama, the defending
national champion and
perennial powerhouse, had
only one player picked in
the opening 31, center Ryan
Kelly to Indianapolis.
So when the proceedings
begin Friday evening, look
for a rolling Crimson Tide.
Still on the board from

are the likes of Heisman
Trophy-winning running
back Derrick Henry, playmaking linebacker Reggie
Ragland, and standout
defensive linemen A’Shawn
Robinson and Jarren Reed.
All should go in the second
round, with cornerback
Cyrus Jones a possibility.
While ‘Bama was nearly
ignored on Thursday night,
Ohio State dominated.
Chosen from the Buckeyes
were DE Joey Bosa, RB
Ezekiel Elliott, CB Eli
Apple, OT Taylor Decker
and LB Darron Lee.
“It’s the greatest feeling,”
said Apple, who is headed
to the Big Apple and the
Giants. “Those are guys that
you battle with, guys that
have just been through so
much. So to see us succeed
right now and go through
all this good stuff is a great
celebration.”
There could be more coming. Still on the board from
Ohio State are safeties Vonn

Michael Thomas; OL Chase

CAS tribunal will adapt itself to the needs of the parties.”
The three-member CAS panel is judging Platini’s
case afresh and has the authority to impose a life ban
for corruption.
Previously, FIFA’s ethics and appeals committees
ruled out bribery as a factor and found Platini and
Blatter guilty of charges including conflict of interest
and disloyalty. Blatter, the former FIFA president,
arrived at 10:30 a.m. to serve as a witness. Blatter
employed Platini as an adviser from 1999-2002.
“I accepted this task. I’m on good form and I’m happy
to be a witness in this matter,” Blatter said outside the

Marlins 2B Dee Gordon suspended 80 games for PEDs
LOS ANGELES (AP) — Reigning NL batting champion Dee Gordon of the Miami
Marlins was suspended 80 games for testing
positive for a performance-enhancing drug,
Major League Baseball said soon after he got
a key hit Thursday night in a win at Dodger
Stadium.
Gordon was not available for comment after
the startling late-night announcement.
The 28-year-old Gordon led the majors in
hits and stolen bases last year. He batted .333,
became an All-Star for the second time and
won a Gold Glove at second base.
The big season helped him earn a $50 million, five-year contract he signed in January.
MLB said he tested positive for exogenous
Testosterone and Clostebol.
Marlins manager Don Mattingly managed
Gordon during his first three big league seasons in Los Angeles before he was traded to
Miami in a seven-player deal in December
2014. Mattingly took over as Marlins manager
prior to this season.
“These guys love Dee, and we’re going to
support him,” Mattingly said. “I feel like Dee’s
one of my kids, to be honest with you, because
I’ve known him so long. So we’re going to love
him, and then we’re going to support him. He’s
been a big part of the success that we’ve had.”
The fleet-footed Gordon is the son of former
All-Star pitcher Tom Gordon. Shortly before
the penalty was announced, Gordon hit an RBI
single in the seventh inning and scored after
forcing a balk as the Marlins rallied for a 5-3
win and a four-game sweep over Los Angeles.
Gordon became the seventh player to be
suspended this year under the MLB drug plan.
Last week, Toronto slugger Chris Colabello
was penalized 80 games after testing positive
for a PED.
Miami President David Samson said the
Marlins “completely support the drug prevention program in every way.
“Dee Gordon is a very important part of our
team, and we all love him and support him,”
Samson said. “That said, I don’t like or condone what he did.
“He will be back 80 games from now, and he
will be welcomed back to this organization,”
he added. “But in the interim period, we
expect him, and we are positive that he will do
everything that’s necessary to make it up to
his fans, to his teammates and to this organization.”

BIRTHDAY GUY: Actor
Daniel Day-Lewis was born
on London today in 1957.
This birthday guy has won
Academy Awards for his
performances in “Lincoln.”
“There Will Be Blood,” and
“My Left Foot,” respectively, to go along with two
other Oscar nominations
for “Gangs of New York”
and “In the Name of the
Father.” Day-Lewis has
been married to director
and actress Rebecca Miller
since 1996 and he is the sonin-law of famed playwright
Arthur Miller.
ARIES (March 21-April
19): Be skeptical of secrets
and sentimentality. Look
for the truth in black and
white. A friend or acquaintance might inadvertently
mislead you about the facts.
Love and romance might
take a short detour tonight.
TAURUS (April 20-May
20): Get ready to rock and
roll. You could be the designated voice of the water
cooler mob or at the head
of the pack in community
activities. Friends might
be in the mood to gather
around the table or TV at
your home.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20):
Ply your trade. Although
fun and games may loom
huge on your calendar you
will find that hard work
and concentration on business affairs will best satisfy
your lust for success. Put
romance on the back burner.
CANCER (June 21-July
22): Keeping the peace may
be more important to you
than having your way.
Others will admire your
ability to remain unruffled
in the face of opposition.
You can make a point
without being offensive to
others.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22):
The hidden drawbacks to a
proposal aren’t hidden very
well. You may be obsessed
by making your mark in
the world but could also see
the problems that hold you
back. Don’t be discouraged
by a discouraging word.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept.
22): You may be stirred to
achieve important goals.
Set some wheels in motion
so that you can accomplish
something near and dear
to your heart. Resolve to
initiate a new project that
reflects on your highest
values.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22):
Feeling that you are under
pressure to perform can
briefly put you into a stew.
Rise above petty jealousies
Jeraldine Saunders
and everything will fall
into place. Concentrate on
future possibilities while
infused with a new sense of
purpose.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov.
21): No one has a reason
to buy a cow when milk is
free. Good intentions are in
abundance, but you know
what is said about good
intentions. Loved ones may
go to extremes to do something to please you.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov.
22-Dec. 21): Go through a
financial request with a
fine toothed comb. You
may feel threatened or
pressured to act. Don’t lose
sight of your ultimate objective if you are waylaid by
a brief period of emotional
upheaval.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan.
19): Your ability to communicate ideas is powerful
and concise. Delve deeply
into the facts but rely on
intuition to read between
the lines. Talk things over
but putt amorous moves
on the back burner until
tomorrow.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb.
18): Pay attention to your
appearance to boost your
overall well-being. With
the Moon in your sign you
need all the confidence you
can get. Keep in touch with
those who support you in
accomplishing your goals.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March
20): Take a ride in the
Tardis. You may feel like
the king of infinite space
and time. People think you
can do almost anything and
that you have all the time
in the world. Your talents
will bring you peace of
mind.
IF APRIL 29 IS YOUR
BIRTHDAY: Long term
commitment and the job of
your dreams are in your
sights during the next three
to four weeks, but you
could be somewhat unrealistic about your aims. A
few more lessons may need
to be learned so be sure to
avoid being hoodwinked or
misled. July is a good time
to tackle financial matters.
In August your romanticism can get out of hand
and you should hold off on
making key decisions. If
you just missed out on true
love and success wait until
October when a heartfelt
desire for romantic bliss,
fame, and fortune may be
fulfilled. Embrace your ideals and deal with setbacks
wisely to obtain the most
benefit from helpful stars.

Bridge
DO NOT ADVERTISE YOUR
WHOLE HAND
Will Rogers
said, “If advertisers spent the same amount
of money on improving their
products as they do on advertising, then they wouldn’t
have to advertise them.”
At the bridge table, every
bid and most passes, especially on the first round of
the auction, advertise something about a hand. Each
player hopes that partner
will benefit more than the opponents, but as we have seen
this week, that isn’t always
the case. Here is another
example where tracking
high-card points turns an apparent guess into a certainty.
In fourth position, South
opens one heart; North
makes a game-invitational
limit raise; and South goes
to game. (If your partnership
uses the Drury convention,
do not stop.) West starts the
defense with his three top
clubs. After ruffing the last,
how should South continue?
Declarer draws trumps,
Phillip Alder
runs his diamonds, discarding two spades from
the board, and leads a
spade. When West plays low
smoothly, should South call
for dummy’s jack or king?
West has shown up with
nine points in
clubs, but did
not open the
bidding. So, he
cannot have
the spade ace;
South should
play dummy’s
jack.
How could
West know that
the third club
will not cash?
At trick one,
East discourages with the
three. Then he
gives remaining count with
the four. But
even if West
shifts to a heart
at trick three,
declarer should
draw trumps
ending in the
dummy and
play the club
Hints from Heloise
Dear Heloise: When I
travel, bringing along my
NIGHT LIGHT
is a must.
Mine comes
on when the
lights go off or it gets dark
in the room. It’s a lifesaver,
since it is difficult to get a
good night’s rest in a hotel.
When getting up at night,
having that light in the
bathroom is far better than
leaving a light on. -- Rhonda
B., Bar Harbor, Maine
A terrific travel hint indeed! My travel kit includes
a night light too, as well
as two small travel flashlights that sit upright and
shine light on the ceiling.
I’ve bumped into too many
doors! -- On-the-Road Heloise
TOTE BAG FOR SHOES
Dear Heloise: On our last
cruise, my husband had the
idea to pack our shoes in a
separate, washable tote bag
(HELOISE HERE: used as
a carry-on) to allow more
room for clothing in our
suitcases.
When we packed to leave,
we put our dirty clothes
into the tote bag and had
room in the suitcases for the
shoes. I brought that tote
bag right into my laundry
room when we got home! -Rose W.R., Jupiter, Fla.
FLAVORING COFFEE
BEANS
Dear Heloise: I am a
college student and experimenting with creating flavored coffee beans to save
a little money. My friend
suggested sprinkling a spice
over regular beans prior
to grinding them. I tried
cinnamon, and it was delicious. It’s a good way to get
gourmet coffee on a cafeteria-coffee budget! -- Cal T. in
San Antonio
Yep, great flavor for a
fraction of a penny! You
just might become a coffee
entrepreneur and connoisseur of flavored coffee. My
pamphlet may help you
with some suggestions,
coffee hints and recipes.
Visit www.Heloise.com to
order one, or send $3 and a
stamped (68 cents), self-addressed, business-size envelope to: Heloise/ Coffee, P.O.
Box 795001, San Antonio,
TX 78279-5001. I’d love to
hear from readers (and will
print your hints): What do
you do to have “special”
10. It would take a lot of courage for East to play low while
holding the queen; also, he
probably would have encouraged at trick one if he had the
club queen.

coffee without spending big
bucks? Try a pinch of chili
powder for a real kick! -Heloise
TRASH TO TREASURE
Dear Heloise: I visit
resale shops and garage
sales looking for unique
and pretty coffee and even
beer mugs. I check them for
chips or other blemishes,
then buy them if they are
in almost-new shape. I stuff
them with small items like
tea bags, candies, gift cards,
etc., and give as gifts.
When I have flowers from
my garden, I snip them to
fit, add some greenery and
have a pretty little “vase”
for my kitchen table.
The fun part is hunting
down these unique ceramic
pieces of pottery. You never
know what you will find at
these places. -- Virginia H.
in Las Vegas
HOMEMADE FUNNEL
Dear Readers: You can
make a temporary funnel

HYPOCHONDRIAC SEEKS
A CURE FOR HER FEAR OF
DYING
DEAR ABBY: I’m a hypochondriac. I am currently
waiting on the biopsy results
for a mole I had removed.
Right now I’m worried and
miserable. I feel guilty for
what I’m putting my husband
through. I want to get thera-
Dr. Mehmet Oz and Dr. Michael Roizen
and reclaiming a younger
RealAge! That’s why, despite
the challenge, it’s something
to embrace -- and then you’ll
be easier to embrace, too!
We’ve long warned about
the dangers of having a waist
circumference over 40 inches
for men and 35 inches for
women: It puts you at risk
for metabolic syndrome (high
blood pressure, triglycerides
and glucose levels; insulin
resistance; body-wide inflammation; and stroke risk).
Well, now a new study presents evidence that for you
folks with Type 2 diabetes,
abominable abdominal fat,
or having an apple-shaped
body, is a bigger indicator of
heart woes to come, especially left-ventricle dysfunction,
than your weight or BMI.
So if you have major love
handles, a bulging belly or
both, here are four ways to
banish the bulge.
1. Walk 30 minutes a day,
heading for a total of 10,000
steps. Make a pedometer
your constant companion.
2. Eat 5-9 servings of fruits
and veggies daily, and nothing but 100 percent whole
grains. Ditch processed foods,
trans and sat fats, added sugars and syrups.
3. Opt for healthy, anti-inflammatory fats found in
salmon, sea trout and omega3 DHA supplements from
algae.
4. Keep blood sugar levels steady in order to stop
weight-and-fat-boosting
insulin spikes by eating five
times (three small meals and
two healthy snacks) every
day.
Pauline Phillips and Jeanne Phillips
py, but doing that feels like
admitting I’m too weak to
handle my problems myself.
My husband thinks he’s a
bad husband because he can’t
help me.
This isn’t the first time I
have worked myself up over
a medical condition I may or
may not have, and it won’t
be the last. How can I deal
with my fear of dying from
something horrible without
damaging my relationship
with my husband? Can
hypochondria be cured? It’s
starting to take over my life.
-- HYPOCHONDRIAC IN THE
SOUTH
DEAR HYPOCHONDRIAC:
It’s a wise person who seeks
help for a problem that’s
ruining the quality of his or
her life. You should definitely discuss your fear of dying
with a licensed mental health
professional. To do that isn’t
“weak” -- it’s the opposite.
DEAR ABBY: My son is getting married in the fall and
we’re all looking forward to
the celebration. There’s just
one problem. My daughter
will be in the wedding and
the bridesmaids’ dresses
are strapless. She will look
beautiful in the dress, but she
adopted a “hippy lifestyle” a
year ago and stopped shaving
her armpits.
The bride-to-be asked
me how to approach her to
request that she remove her
armpit hair on the day of the
wedding. Is there a tactful
way to approach this without
offending my daughter and
possibly causing bad feelings
between her and the bride? -UNSURE IN NEW JERSEY
DEAR UNSURE: I would
discourage you from doing
that. Although every bride
wants her wedding to be
“perfect,” there’s a point
at which she must realize
there are some things she
can’t control. An example of
where that boundary should
be drawn would be at her
bridesmaids’ armpits. During
a formal wedding ceremony,
bridesmaids usually keep
their arms down, so unless
your daughter’s “pit hair”
is so long she can braid it, it
should not distract attention
from the bride.
P.S. If hairy armpits
in the wedding pictures
concern her, they can be
Photoshopped off.
DEAR ABBY: My parents
built a two-bedroom apartment onto their house for my
brother and his wife when
they were struggling financially. They decided to move
out of state, so my single sister is now in the apartment.
It has been a year, and my
brother and his wife are now
expecting. They have moved
back to the area because they
want to raise the baby near
family, and want the apartment back. Of course, my
sister doesn’t want to give
it back. I feel she shouldn’t
have to.
I agree with my sister that
my brother gave it up. But
my brother feels my single
sister doesn’t need a two-bedroom apartment. On that
point I agree with him. My
husband, my parents and I
are in the middle. What do
you think should be done? -SQUABBLING SIBLINGS
DEAR “SQUAB”: Get
out of the middle by stepping
away. The apartment belongs
to your parents, and it is up
to them to decide who gets to
use it. The rule of etiquette
in a situation like this is:
Mouth shut! (The more you
involve yourself, the more
one of your siblings is sure to
resent you.)

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

seconded by Councilor Shafer, approval of the consent
agenda. Council approved the motion; roll call vote,
unanimous. Zack Houck - Sheridan Tree Board President
read an Arbor/Tree Day Proclamation and invited
Mayor, Council and public to attend the Arbor Day Event
in Kendrick Park , Saturday, April 23, 10:00 am to 2:00
PM where there would be a variety of events including a
tree climbing exhibition, tree pruning class and tree
planting. The event is free to everyone. Council
President Smith invited Junior Councilors Belus and
Casey to provide an update on high school activities. Jr
Councilor Belus advised that ACT's would be taken on
Tuesday which the students have been busy preparing
for. Jr Councilor Casey added that AP tests were coming
up in the next couple of weeks that would give students
a chance to earn college credits. Soccer and Track are
currently in full swing. Mayor Heath welcomed
Operations Supervisor Mathers Heuck who provided a
brief history and update on the Poplar Grove Park.
Poplar Grove Park, the newest City Park, is out on Skeels
St where developer John Muecke has not only donated
the land which would normally just become a pocket
park or open space, but had invested his own time and
money to develop the park. A community build was
scheduled, many volunteers donated their time and the
park is now complete and is nice to have this addition to
the city park system. Future improvements include curb
and gutter, tree planting, a sprinkler system and a fence
which will separate the park from the street. Mayor
Heath welcomed Paul Demple to provide a community
update regarding the services provided through
Northern Wyoming Mental Health Center. Paul Demple,
Executive Director of NWMH, thanked council for
inviting him to provide the update. Paul provided
council with his background in the state mental health
system and outlined the challenges that the Center if
facing and the direction that the Center is heading in
the future. This includes the expansion of services, the
process of accessing the services, crisis scheduling of
appointments, crisis stabilization, developing a way to
make sure everyone receives the same level of services
and how to establish gate keeping for Title 25. Paul
further noted that this year Legislation did not cut
funding for these services, however in the future they
may not be so blessed and will have to work within a
very restrictive budget and so will need to be quite
creative when taking steps to include new services at
the Center. In conclusion Paul Demple responded to
questions and comments from Mayor and Council.
Deputy City Clerk Williams read Ordinance 2166, of PL16-6: Cloud Peak Ranch Twentieth Filing Rezone, by
title. Councilor Shafer moved, seconded by Councilor
Kelly, approval of Ordinance 2166 on second reading.
Councilor Shafer called for staff update regarding
further insights or concerns about this project. Planning
and Economic Development Director Briggs addressed a
letter received from Dixie See, property owner adjacent
to this project, in which she expressed concerns about
the height of the buildings. PEDD Briggs stated that it
has not been the custom of the City to place a condition
on the developer by Ordinance. The zoning of this
project allows for a thirty five foot height and it is not
restricted to single level buildings. PEDD Briggs referred
to Jeff Feck of Vista West Engineering who explained on
behalf of the developer that he does not feel that this
project should be encumbered with a height restriction
as the applicable zoning addresses this issue. Council
approved the motion; roll call vote, unanimous. Deputy
City Clerk Williams read Ordinance 2167, Establishing
Public Benefit Fund, by title. Councilor Rios moved,
seconded by Councilor Smith, approval of Ordinance
2167 on second reading. Council approved the motion;
roll call vote, unanimous. Councilor Shafer moved,
seconded by Councilor Smith, approval of Guaranteed
Maximum Price - Police Bldg Remodel. Council called for
a staff presentation from Chief Adriaens. Chief Adriaens
and Public Works Director Bateson provided an in-depth
background on the building as it is now and provided
insight into the inefficiencies and limited operations
caused by the outdated floor plan. Chief Adriaens
provided photographs of the issues with the roof that is
leaking, the server rooms and electronics that do not
have the proper temperature control, the lack of rooms
to conduct private interviews and the challenges with
the building not being ADA compliant. Chief Adriaens
Your Right To Know and be informed of

and study these notices.
We strongly advise those seeking

of access to public records and
public meetings.
then outlined the processes that have been taken to
secure a design that will resolve the issues currently
being dealt with, the bidding processes that have been
done, the funding sources available and a timeline for
completion of the project. Councilor Lee thanked the
community and staff for supporting this project and
identifying the necessity for the remodel. Council
approved the motion: voice vote; unanimous. Mayor
Heath opened the floor to public comment. John
Strandholm addressed the council with objections and
concerns about the possible inclusion of the electronic
collar or leash use in the current leash law Ordinance.
Mayor Heath called for a motion for approval to go into
