4 arrested, charged in revenue office robbery
By Sarah Perry
sperry@bentoncourier.com
After several months, officers with the Bryant Police
Department have been able to
identify four individuals who
were allegedly responsible for a
December robbery at the Bryant
Revenue Office.
As of Tuesday, an employee
at the Revenue Office as well as
three other people are facing
charges in connection with the
incident.
Marqueena Simmons, 31, of
Little Rock, who was an employee
at the office at the time of the
Simmons
Broadway
Raglin
incident, was arrested on Feb. 16
and has been charged with aggravated robbery. Officers believe
she assisted the other individuals
in planning the robbery, said Sgt.
Todd Crowson, spokesperson for
the Bryant Police Department.
Quinlan Broadway, 36, of
Little Rock was also arrested in
February and charged with aggravated robbery.
Terry Raglin, 49, of Little
Rock was arrested Tuesday and
charged with aggravated robbery,
fleeing and tampering with physical evidence.
Angela Hicks, 30, of Little
Rock, who will be facing charges
in Pulaski County, was arrested
Tuesday and charged with hindering apprehension or prosecution.
On Dec. 23, 2015, officers
responded to the Bryant Revenue
Office. An employee at the office
told police she had entered her
vehicle with the night deposit bag.
Another driver allegedly struck
her vehicle and a man opened the
passenger door of her vehicle,
took the bag and fled the area.
The bag contained an undisclosed amount of money, Crowson
said.
During the course of the investigation, officers later learned that
another man was also involved in
the incident.
A Bryant officer was able to
locate the vehicle that reportedly
was used during the incident. The
location was Reynolds Road.
“Officers pursued the vehicle to
the area near the Geyer Springs
Church, when the driver stopped
his car and fled on foot back
Rainforest Fun
Tropical animals center of attention Wednesday
across Interstate 30,” Crowson
said. “Officers began a foot pursuit but were unable to locate the
suspects.”
Assisting with the investigation
were Arkansas State Police and
the U.S. Marshal Fugitive Task
Force.
Simmons was released shortly
after her arrest on a $10,000 bond
and Broadway was released on a
$15,000 bond.
Raglin is still being detained
at the Saline County Detention
Center on a $25,000 bond.
Hicks currently is being held
at the Pulaski County Detention
Center, Crowson said.

LITTLE ROCK — An
Arkansas board has approved
rates that would cut state
and public school employees’ health plan payments to
pharmacists by more than
$14 million annually.
According to reports,
under the rates approved by
the State and Public School
Life and Health Insurance
Board on Tuesday, the
plans will adopt a new price
schedule for generic drugs
and decrease the price of
brand-name drugs by about 6
percent.
The plans will also cut the
dispensing fee paid to pharmacists per prescription from
$3.50 to $1.50 for brand-name
drugs and from $4.50 to
$1.50 for generic drugs.
The board made an exception on brand-name drugs for
certain independent pharmacies in towns of 5,000 people

or less. The price paid for
brand-name drugs to those
pharmacies will be cut by
about 4 percent instead of 6
percent.
Board member Shelby
McCook proposed the exception, saying he wanted to
help “mom and pop” pharmacies.
“I don’t want one of my
retired teachers to have
to drive 40 miles to see a
pharmacist that’s still in business,” he said.
The rates that didn’t
include small-town pharmacies were proposed by San
Diego-based MedImpact,
which is scheduled to take
over from Catamaran on July
1 as the plans’ pharmacy benefits manager.
The board’s actuarial consultant said that applied to all
pharmacies, the rates would
save the plans an estimated
$16 million each year.

EDITORIAL CARTOON
“Congress shall make no law ... abridging the freedom
of speech, or of the press ... .”
— From the First Amendment to Constitution
Thanks for
the memories
Dear Editor,
I wish to commend The Courier on some of your
regular opinion writers, Gene
Lyons, George Ellis and a couple of others. I also
enjoyed Laura Butler’s
recent letter of March 13 about our city leaders not
following their own
ordinances. In that same edition you published
another story by Freddy
Burton. Those are always welcome.
This one concerned a talk he had with World War II
veteran Raymond Thomas.
I was a tenth grade bench warmer when Raymond
came back to Panther football in 1946. Raymond mentioned Norman “Gar” Cox, Bill “Moon” Mullins and
Freeman Wright as being other Benton boys in boot
camp in San Diego when he was. This bench warmer
got a close up view on game days of those three and
other veterans who made up one of Benton’s best
teams in ‘46.
Other veterans on that team were Jack “Spageo”
Richards, Hubert Spann, J.W. “Dubby” Dove, and
Doyle “Basil” Robinson. Of course the great James
Ahlf, our post war coach was a veteran, too.
These guys were our heroes on the field and off
because of where they had been and what they had
done. Thanks Freddy and Raymond for evoking fond
memories.

Underlying medical
condition could cause
too much sleep
DEAR DOCTOR K: I’ve heard a lot about the harmful effects of insufficient sleep. But are there any dangers of
sleeping too much?
DEAR READER: Over the years we’ve learned that
sleep is important for a variety of reasons. It appears to
be vital for forming long-term memories. It also helps you
to digest what you have learned the previous day. Sleep
promotes concentration and restores energy; it helps to
keep your immune system functioning well and to regulate eating patterns.
The average adult needs seven to nine hours. Does
it matter whether you get more or less than the ideal
amount of sleep? That’s tough to answer -- in part,
because the effects of sleep are difficult to separate from
other factors that can affect the quality or
duration of your sleep.
Studies have linked short sleep duration -- five hours or less each night -- with
a number of health problems, including
high blood pressure and diabetes. Sleep
deprivation is also a major contributor
to car accidents, accounting for an estimated 100,000 accidents per year in this
country.
Dr.
Surprisingly, there may also be health
problems associated with too much sleep. Komaroff
Large, well-designed studies have analyzed the relationship between amount
of sleep and length of life. Thousands of people have
answered detailed questionnaires about their sleep habits
and their health status over many years.
In these studies, the death rates for people who sleep
the least -- and the most -- are higher than those people
whose sleep time falls in the middle.
There are other common health problems that also
cause people to sleep more and that may shorten life.
These include:
-- thyroid disease;
-- kidney or liver disease;
-- a sleep disorder such as obstructive sleep apnea;
-- dementia.
Some medications used to treat serious illnesses also
can make a person groggy and sleepy. That’s another
way that sleeping long hours might be linked to dying
sooner.
In summary, I’d say that there is little evidence that
simply sleeping unusually long hours -- like more than
nine hours a night -- actually shortens your life. And there
are plenty of healthy people who regularly sleep more
than nine hours a night.

Obama’s
feckless defense
of human rights
in Cuba
O
N
Few Republicans have
shown the courage to
stand against Trump
ow that Donald Trump
has spoken before the
American Israel Public
Affairs Committee (AIPAC), a proIsrael lobbying group, Americans
have learned the following:
Trump can read a teleprompter;
he finally got someone to write him
a decent speech, which he was able
to deliver without resorting to vulgarities; and he has provided something like a justification for reluctant
Republicans to support him.
Which is a pretty
low bar, you must
admit. And it’s not
nearly enough.
You know all the
arguments pro and
con by now. He
speaks plainly. So
did Archie Bunker. Kathleen
His message of
Parker
walled-in isolationism appeals to those
tired of loose immigration policies.
So was the case with Sen. Berzelius
“Buzz” Windrip, the nativist demagogue in Sinclair Lewis’s 1935
cautionary novel, “It Can’t Happen
Here.”
Windrip, like Trump, spoke of
national greatness, though Windrip
was more explicit, saying that
Americans “must continue to be the
greatest Race on the face of this old
Earth.” Like Trump’s, Windrip’s base
consisted largely of working-class
white males, whom he called upon to
help control dissent after he ascended to the Oval Office. Sound familiar?
Punch anybody in the nose lately?
It’s called fascism by any other
name and, yes, it does seem that it
can happen here. That is, a demagogue can become president, as
Lewis was trying to warn. And, yes,
we do have checks and balances in
this country, but does anyone really
think that Trump should have the
power to start a nuclear war? He’s
mighty quick to rile.
No one is more familiar with the
language of marginalization and
authoritarianism than the Jewish
community, causing one to wonder
why Trump, whose rise has been
spiced with bigotry and group-blaming rhetoric, was allowed in AIPAC’S
door. The answer is that the nonpartisan organization traditionally invites
all presidential candidates, among
others, to speak to its annual policy
conference.
Well, that’s an explanation, anyway.
The conundrum for Republicans
is that though Trump may be the
devil, he’s their devil. How can they
condemn the guy that a near-majority
of their own party prefers? If you’re,
say, House Speaker Paul D. Ryan
(Wis.), how do you say you won’t
support your party’s nominee? Then
again, if you’re a good man like Ryan,
how do you support him?
That is the question of the
moment, isn’t it? This is what we
ask ourselves about the industrialists and “good Germans” who supported Hitler. This is what we ask
our Southern grandparents about
the time when blacks were being
lynched. What we ask the World
War II generation about rounding
up Japanese Americans. And while
we’re at it, what was your vote on
Vietnam, Iraq? There’s a price to pay
for silence.
That so few have shown the courage to deny Trump tells us how
difficult it is to be brave — and how
rare character is. But one can only
pretend for so long not to hear the
dog whistles of history, a skill at
which Republicans have become
too well practiced over the decades.
Perhaps they’re no longer listening.
Or they’re deluding themselves that
Trump’s words don’t really mean
what, you know, they mean.
“He won’t be that bad.”
No, he’s worse.
A Jewish friend of mine — a
Democrat, scholar, erstwhile politician and former U.S. ambassador
whose parents were Holocaust survivors — called to vent after Trump’s
speech to AIPAC. First, he said he
was glad his father wasn’t alive to see
this, and that he’d almost like to join
AIPAC so he could resign in protest.
“The reality,” he said, “is if you go
back and look at Hitler, somehow
you elect someone that you know
is beyond the pale. But you do it
because you’re afraid of someone
else. And then later, you look closely.
And it’s too late.”
Unless.
The tiny flame at the end of this
darkening tunnel is a contested convention, which depends on Ted Cruz
and John Kasich starving Trump
of the necessary 1,237 delegates
needed to secure the nomination. It
could happen, according to Princeton
University’s Sam Wang, a statistical
prognosticator and game theorist
with a golden record. Basically, if
Kasich campaigns only in proportional delegate states, leaving winnertake-all states to Cruz, Trump’s
chances of becoming the nominee
are reduced from 90 percent to
50 percent, says Wang.
It’s a big gamble, but it beats losing your soul.

n Jan. 8, the Associated Press
reported that President Barack
Obama “may travel to Cuba as
early as this spring if he feels the rights
situation here is improving and a presidential trip will help.”
The Castro dictatorship’s response
was immediate and severe. According to
Elizardo Sanchez, the president of the
Cuban Commission for Human Rights and
National Reconciliation, there were 2,555
political detentions in Cuba during the first
two months of 2016.
It is a familiar pattern.
As we wrote last fall, the
Cuban government’s
response at each stage
in the process of reconciliation with the United
States has been a steady
escalation in the arbitrary harassment, abuse, Nat
arrest and detention of
Hentoff
Cuba’s pro-democracy
dissidents. Crackdowns
on political dissidents preceded both the
September visit of Pope Francis and the
opening of the U.S. Embassy in August.
Obama proceeded with his historic visit
to Cuba in spite of the crackdowns. When
his plane landed in Havana last Sunday,
Raul Castro was not present to greet him.
To his credit, Obama gave a lengthy
speech on human rights, which was broadcast live on Cuban state television. He
also held a two-hour meeting with a group
of prominent Cuban political dissidents,
something Pope Francis did not do. U.S.
Embassy staff had to escort the dissidents
to the meeting for fear they would be
arrested if they tried to attend on their
own.
One dissident who could not attend
the meeting was Carlos Manuel Figueroa
Alvarez, one of 53 Cuban political prisoners released in December 2014 as part of
the negotiations that began the process of
normalization.
On Sept. 30, Figueroa climbed the
fence of the newly opened U.S. Embassy
and shouted, “Down With Raul!” as he
rushed toward the building in a bid for
political asylum. Figueroa was detained by
the embassy’s security staff and immediately turned over to Cuban authorities. In
January, the AP reported that he was in
prison awaiting trial.
Castro was asked about Cuba’s political prisoners by CNN’s Jim Acosta during
a joint news conference with President
Obama. Castro’s response raised belligerent sarcasm to an art form:
“What political prisoners? Give me a
name or names, or when, after this meeting is over, you can give me a list of political prisoners and if we have those political
prisoners, they will be released before
tonight ends.”
Obama stood mute. It would have sent
a powerful message to Castro if the president had ticked off a list of Cuba’s remaining political prisoners by name -- such as
Carlos Manuel Figueroa Alvarez -- and
demanded that they be released. But sending powerful messages to dictators is not
one of Obama’s talents.
This was apparent when Obama and
Secretary of State John Kerry held a
wreath-laying ceremony at the monument to Jose Marti in Havana’s Revolution
Square on Monday. Marti was a philosopher, journalist and freedom fighter who
died in 1895 leading a revolution against
the Spanish occupation of Cuba. Obama
quoted Marti more than once during
his speech on human rights, although
he failed to note that Marti’s goal was to
establish a democratic republic in Cuba.
But the hoped-for symbolism of a U.S.
president laying a wreath at the Marti
memorial was overshadowed, literally, by
a five-story relief sculpture of Che Guevara
looming over the ceremony from a nearby
building. The rendering of Guevara makes
it appear that the Castro dictatorship’s former chief executioner is winking at those
assembled below.
We were reminded of the time Nat
interviewed Guevara during a meeting at
the Cuban mission to the United Nations
in the early 1960s. Guevara, dressed in his
neatly pressed military uniform, professed
not to understand English and spoke
through an interpreter.
Nat Hentoff is a nationally renowned
authority on the First Amendment and
the Bill of Rights. He is a member of the
Reporters Committee for Freedom of the
Press, and the Cato Institute, where he is
a senior fellow. Nick Hentoff is a criminal

By Jennifer Hoyt
Oaklawn Barn Notes
HOT SPRINGS – The final

Croushore muzzles Bulldogs
By Tony Lenahan
tlenahan@bentoncourier.com
BENTON – Benton senior
left-hander Jake Croushore
struck out 12 in a completegame 3-0 Panthers’ shutout
of the Greenwood Bulldogs
Wednesday in the consolation game of the Central
Arkansas Invitational at
Panthers Field.
“He did great,” Benton
Coach Mark Balisterri said
of Croushore. “He had control of his pitches the whole
game. He probably threw
a few more pitches than I
would have liked him to, he
threw 112 pitches, but he’s
been working hard, he’s in
shape. He pounded the strike
zone and kept them off-balance. I think they hit one or
two balls hard all day.”
Croushore gave up four
hits on the day, walking
three and hitting two batters
while striking out a careerhigh 12.
“He kept us in the game
early when there was no
score, and when we finally
scored a couple runs, he just
continued to compete out
there,” Balisterri said. “He
got into a little trouble in
the last inning and it didn’t
bother him. I think he had
three balls on a kid and I told
him, ‘Hey, let’s go,’ and he
said, ‘I got this.’ He finished
strong, too.”

up 3-0 in the final inning,

Sweet 16
By Kristie Rieken

COLLEGE STATION,
Texas — Danuel House
had no points with 5 1/2
minutes left in regulation of
Texas A&M’s game against
Northern Iowa.
He and the Aggies were
far from done. House finished with 22 points in an
astonishing comeback that
has the Aggies in their first
Sweet 16 since 2007, where
they’ll face Oklahoma on
Thursday.
House received plenty of
well wishes after that game
where A&M rallied from a
12-point deficit with 44 seconds left to win in double
overtime. He had 120 text
messages piled up by the
time he got back to his
phone in the locker room.
But one that was just a
tad premature stood out
above all the rest.
“My friend had sent me
a text message: ‘Hey man,
it’s been a great season.
You did all you could do,’”
House said.
Time stamped a few
minutes later was one backtracking.
“Then the next thing
you know bam: ‘Way to
pull it out,’” House said the
text said before cackling.

Former Cardinal Joe Jayhawks rolling along in tourney
Garagiola dies at 90
Associated Press
By Bob Baum
Associated Press
PHOENIX — Joe
Garagiola’s nine-year baseball career was a modest
one. His 57 years in broadcasting that followed made
him one of the most popular
figures in the sports world
and beyond.
The man Arizona
Diamondbacks President
Derrick Hall called “one of
the biggest personalities
this game has ever seen”
died Wednesday. He was
90.
The Diamondbacks
announced Garagiola’s
death before their exhibition game against San
Francisco, and there were
murmurs of shock and sadness at the ballpark. He had
been in ill health in recent
years.
Growing up in the Hill
neighborhood of St. Louis
not far from future Hall
of Famer Yogi Berra,
Garagiola went on to hit
.257 during nine years in
the majors. His highlight
came early, getting a
four-hit game in the 1946
World Series and helping
the hometown Cardinals
win the championship as a
20-year-old rookie.
“Not only was I not the
best catcher in the major
leagues, I wasn’t even the
best catcher on my street,”
Garagiola once remarked.
But it was after he
stopped playing that his fortunes took off. He thrived as
a glib baseball broadcaster
and fixture on the “Today”
show, leading to a nearly
30-year association with
NBC.

LAWRENCE, Kan. —
The overall No. 1 seed in
the NCAA Tournament did
nothing to dispute its frontrunner status through the
opening weekend, despite
upsets galore that rendered
so many brackets nothing
more than confetti.
More important, Kansas
lived up to its own expectations after failing to do that
the last two years.
Seeded second on both
occasions, the Jayhawks
failed to get past their
second game. They were
done in by a plucky bunch
from Stanford playing far
better than its seeding in
2014, then by injuries and
a matchup with a fired-up
Wichita State team last year
that sent them shuffling
into the offseason.
“You know, there was
a lot of motivation from
last year, that feeling we
had,” said Perry Ellis, the
Jayhawks’ leading scorer.
“We just want to continue
to play the way we are, have
fun.”
Because it’s a lot more
fun to win.
Nobody expected anything less than a blowout
of Austin Peay in the first
round, but the Jayhawks
still left jaws hanging by
easily putting up 105 points.
But it was in Sunday’s never-in-doubt win over UConn,
a team that had never lost
in the NCAA Tournament
under coach Kevin Ollie,
that the Jayhawks issued
notice to the rest of the
nation that they’re the team
to beat in this edition of
March Madness.
They went on a 16-0
run early on. Then a 19-0
run later on. When shots
stopped dropping and their
focus wobbled ever-soslightly, Ellis and Wayne
Selden Jr. and their seemingly inexhaustible number
of tried-and-true veterans
was there to steer things
back on track.
The final score was 73-61.
People who watched knew
it was never that close.
“That’s a real good team,
solid players up and down,”
Ollie said, marveling at how
fresh the Kansas starters
looked late in the game.
“They’re going to be a very,
very tough out of this tournament.”
Fifth-seeded Maryland
is the next to get a shot on
Thursday night in Chicago.
If there is any team in
the tournament that matches up well with Kansas, it
just may be the team from
College Park, coached by a
Sunflower State native and
former Jayhawk standout in
Mark Turgeon.

“That’s probably the most
memorable one.”
No one on the team was
surprised to see House
bounce back late in that
game after a start where he
missed his first nine shots
and had three turnovers.
“He’s never met a shot
that he doesn’t like and
he’s never met a shot that
he won’t take,” coach Billy
Kennedy said smiling.
“Offensively that’s a good
thing and sometimes he
takes some tough shots.
That’s just his mindset and
he’s got the green light.
Sometimes we tell him put
it on yellow. That’s just how
he’s wired and that’s what
we want him to do.”
The 6-foot-7 House,
who leads the Aggies with
15.8 points a game, said

said. “When we’re at the
game she’s tired. But when

House said he never
doubted he made the right
decision in transferring
to Texas A&M, saying he
made the move because he
wanted to play in a bigger
conference. He believes his
time at A&M has helped
make him a more complete
player and a better person.
Along with leading the

every conference game was
a struggle as teams began
to game plan to slow him
down.
“I’m pretty confident and
I know all the hard work
will pay off,” he said. “So
I just try to skip over that

year with a foot injury.

“Maryland is without
question one of the most
talented teams in the country,” Kansas coach Bill Self
said. “They are very strong
on the perimeter and play
through both bigs. They’ve
been ranked nationally in
the top-10 for the majority of
the season. We know how
talented they are.”
Then again, the Jayhawks
(32-4) are a whole different

double-digit seeds that the
Terrapins beat to reach the

The Big 12 behemoths

They have the same
expectations as that team.
And right now, they’re living
up to them.
“You know, the pressure is going to be there

Chop blocks eliminated, PAT snaps from 15 permanent
By Barry Wilner
Associated Press
BOCA RATON, Fla. —
The chop block has been
entirely outlawed from NFL
games, and extra-point
kicks snapped from the
15-yard line are now permanent.
NFL owners voted
Tuesday to approve both
those proposals by the
competition committee.
They also passed a resolution to expand what is a
horse-collar tackle to cover
the nameplate on the back
of jerseys.
In all, seven rule proposals were approved. The
others involved coach-toplayer communications
from the sideline as well
as the press box; adding a
delay-of-game penalty to a
team that calls a timeout
when it has none remaining; removing a 5-yard
penalty for a receiver ille-
gally touching a pass after
being out of bounds; and
eliminating multiple spots
of enforcement for a double
foul after a change of possession.
The chop block, in
which a player blocks an
opponent low while the
opponent is engaged high
with another player, had
become more limited in
the league because of
various rule changes. Now,
all forms of it have been
banned, with violators
drawing a 15-yard penalty.
The competition committee felt it was a dangerous
play. Some NFL coaches
believe eliminating the
chop block will affect the
ground game.
“It definitely changes
some things,” Broncos
coach Gary Kubiak said.
“That definitely changes
some of your teachings of
your techniques. ... The
change would be in the
box. We’ll see how it goes.”
The extra point snaps
from the 15 were an experiment for 2015 that worked
so well that making it
permanent was a given.
Efficiency on extra points
from the 33-yard-line or so
dropped from more than
99 percent to just over 94
percent.
“We made it a meaningful play,” said Rich McKay,
president of the Atlanta
Falcons and co-chairman of
the competition committee.
Like the chop block, the
horse-collar tackle can lead
to serious injuries. This
alteration makes the call
easier for on-field officials.
“This play has really
evolved, or this rule has
evolved over the years,”
said Dean Blandino, the
NFL’s officiating director.
“Your classic horse collar
(is) where the defensive
player gets inside the collar
of either the jersey or the
shoulder pad from behind
or the side, and pulls the
runner toward the ground.
We had several plays over
the last couple of years,
and you just watch this at
full speed and it’s the same
mechanic. ...
“The grab, the pull
back, the same potential
for injury. The officials at
full speed are calling this
a foul, but when you look
at it in slow motion, and
you see he’s actually not
inside the collar, he’s on
the nameplate of the jersey.
But again, the mechanics
of the tackle are the same,
the same potential for
injury.”
With those items out
of the way, the owners
will turn their attention
to proposals regarding
ejecting players for two
unsportsmanlike conduct
penalties; allowing coaches
and players on the sideline to use video on their
tablets rather than just
photos to review plays; and
increasing coaches challenges from two to three or
enhancing what plays can
be reviewed.
AFC coaches who met
with the media Tuesday
were asked their opinions
about player ejections for
two unsportsmanlike acts.
There are specific criteria
for what those fouls would
be, including throwing
punches or kicking at
opponents, taunting and
using abusive, threatening
or insulting language or
gestures.
“I think we’re talking
about the integrity of the
game,” Texans coach Bill
O’Brien said, “and we’re
trying to do a good job of
making sure that the game
is played cleanly and things
like that.
“I think the one thing
that’s going to be difficult is that let’s just say
one of your best players
gets an unsportsmanlike
penalty early in the game,
is he going to become a
target, meaning like are
they going to go after this
guy to try to get him to do
something where he gets
kicked out of a game?”
Patriots owners Robert
Kraft said Monday he is
comfortable with the level
of safety in the NFL.
“I think the game of
football has never been
safer than it is today,” Kraft
said. “I played. My sons
have played. I have three
grandsons who play now.
So we have three generations playing this game. We
believe in it. ... I think life
lessons and what you get
out of playing football is
way beyond the risks of
what happens. I honestly
believe the risks are being
managed as well as they
can be today.”

Ford C. Frick Award for
excellence in broadcasting
in 1991. He kept working
well into his 80s, serving
as a part-time analyst for
Diamondbacks telecasts
until he announced his
retirement in February 2013.
“He had a genuine impact
on the craft. He was among
the first to bring a humorous, story-telling style to the
booth,” NBC announcer Bob
Costas said.
Garagiola’s son, Joe Jr., is
a former general manager
of the Diamondbacks and a
current executive with Major
League Baseball.
“We are deeply saddened
by the loss of this amazing
man,” his family said in a
statement, “who was not just
beloved to those of us in his
family, but to generations of
baseball fans who he impacted during his eight decades
in the game.”
“Joe loved the game and
passed that love onto family,
his friends, his teammates,
his listeners and everyone
he came across as a player
and broadcaster. His impact
on the game, both on and off
the field, will forever be felt.”
Commissioner Rob
Manfred said “all of us at
Major League Baseball are
deeply saddened by the loss
of Joe Garagiola.”
“Joe began his illustrious
career as a baseball player,
but it wasn’t long before
everyone knew that this
unique individual would
combine his multi-talented
media skills and wonderful personality to make a

got a really good changeup.
His changeup was a little off
today, but his curveball was
working well. He had a big
day against one of the supposed to be best 6A teams.
And we faced their No. 1
(starter). We did what we
had to do.”
It was a pitchers’ duel to
start as Greenwood starter
Connor Noland retired the
first seven Panthers he
faced until walking senior
Gunnar Smith with one
out in the third inning. But
Benton would get to Noland
in the fourth as sophomore
Drew Chilton singled up the
middle to start the inning.
Chilton stole second, went
to third on senior Brinson
Williams’ single and scored
on an errant pickoff throw to
first base.
Courtesy runner Coltyn
Lane stole second base and
came around to score on
senior Drew Dyer’s RBI
single to right field for the
2-0 lead.
The Panthers picked up
their final run in the bottom
of the fifth inning with two
outs. Chilton reached on a
two-out single, stole his second base of the day and took
third on a wild pitch before
senior Colten Nix knocked
him in with a single to centerfield for the 3-run lead.
Nix went on to steal his first
and second bases of the
game, something he has
done quite a bit of lately. Nix
mark off the field as well,”
Manfred said.
Manfred also praised
Garagiola for being a leader
in baseball’s fight against
smokeless tobacco.
The Cardinals signed
Garagiola after rejecting
Berra at a 1943 tryout.
The two remained lifelong
friends, with Berra often
the good-natured subject of
Garagiola’s wit. Berra died
last Sept. 15.
When both men entered
retirement communities a
few years ago, Garagiola
recalled a phone conversation with Berra.
“I said, ‘How’s it going,
Yog?’” Garagiola said, “and
he said, ‘It’s all right, but
geez, they’ve got a lot of old
people here.’”
Garagiola played for the
Cardinals, New York Giants,
Pittsburgh Pirates and
Chicago Cubs. He broke in
with the Cardinals, joining
a powerful team led by the
great Stan Musial. Garagiola
got four hits in Game 4
of the 1946 Series against
Boston and batted .316 overall as St. Louis beat the Red
Sox in seven games.
Garagiola broke into
broadcasting in 1955 as a
radio and television analyst
for the Cardinals. He spent
27 years at NBC and was
paired with Tony Kubek
as the lead broadcast team
from 1976-82 and then with
Vin Scully from 1984-88.
He was 62 when he left on
Nov. 1, 1988, when his contract expired. He broadcast
Angels home games on TV
in 1990.
He didn’t limit his talents
to sportscasting.
Garagiola was a co-host of
the “Today” show from 19691973, working with Barbara
Walters and Hugh Downs,
and again from 1990-1992,
working with Bryant
Gumbel and Katie Couric.
“God I’ll miss Joe
Garagiola. Was part of
the soul of our show, and
told me stories that made
me laugh till I cried. Hall
of fame person,” tweeted
“Today” host Matt Lauer.
Garagiola also stepped
in on occasion to host “The
Tonight Show Starring
Johnny Carson,” including a
1968 show featuring guests
John Lennon and Paul
McCartney.
Garagiola’s work as
a commentator for the
Westminster dog show
helped inspire Fred
Willard’s daffy character
Buck Laughlin in the mockumentary “Best in Show.”
“One of the world’s good
guys,” said his longtime
Westminster broadcasting
partner, David Frei. “He
loved the game, of course,
but he loved life. That’s why
he was so well-loved everywhere he went, including
the dog show.”
Garagiola helped found
the Baseball Assistance
Team in 1986 to assist for-
mer players and other baseball figures in financial need
and was a leading figure in
the National Spit Tobacco
Education Program.
He authored several
books, including “Baseball
Is a Funny Game” and “It’s
Anybody’s Ballgame.”
Among his favorite projects was the St. Peter Indian
Mission School on the Gila
River Indian Reservation. He
coaxed friends into helping
him provide bats and balls,
basketball equipment and a
new bus for the school near
Phoenix.
Garagiola is survived by
his wife of 66 years, Audrie,
sons Joe Jr. and Steve,
daughter Gina and eight
grandchildren.
The funeral will be held
at an unspecified date in his
hometown of St. Louis. A
memorial service also will be
held in Phoenix.
In lieu of flowers, the
family asked for donations
to the Baseball Assistance
Team or the St. Peter Indian
Mission.

WASHINGTON —
“Bimbo. Dog. Fat pig,” disgusted women say, looking
straight into the camera.
Another explains, “Real
quotes from Donald Trump,
about women.”
Flip the channel. “I know
words. I have the best
words,” Trump says. That
commercial proceeds with a
30-second, bleeped-out tour
of his coarsest comments.
Both ads — and dozens
more that portray Trump as
a selfish, deceptive buffoon
— are sponsored by fellow
Republicans trying to derail
the political outsider from
capturing their party’s presidential nomination.
But these ads are also
providing Democrats with
attacks that could be recycled verbatim for the general
election and slapped with
the tagline, “Hillary Clinton
approves this message.”
An Associated Press
review of political ads
tracked by Kantar Media’s
Campaign Media Analysis
Group found 68 different
anti-Trump commercials
have been shown some
40,000 times across the
country on broadcast television.
About one of every 10
presidential ads shown over
the past year has taken a
shot at Trump, a rate that
has picked up this month
as polls suggest the billionaire’s already low favorability
ratings with the general
public are deflating. And
Democrats say they’re closely monitoring the Republican
hit-pieces.
“It’s interesting to watch
Republican super PACs as a
kind of test run for the kinds
of things we would do,” said
David Brock, who steers
several outside efforts to
help Clinton.
Justin Barasky, spokesman for Priorities USA, the
best-financed of the pro-Clinton groups, said Republicans
are “saving us money by
beating him up. It’s certainly
not unhelpful.” Priorities
is reserving $70 million in
commercial time for the
general election starting
late summer, and Barasky
said the group anticipates it
will begin spending against
Trump even sooner.
For his part, Trump has
said the attack ads aren’t
working, pointing to his
decisive victory in Florida in
the face of a multimillion-dollar effort there to tear him
down. Responding to the ad
featuring his comments on
women, Trump told CNN
this week that “half of that
was show business.”
Trump’s Republican
attackers argue their efforts
are worth it — even if they
ultimately weaken the GOP
nominee.
“I don’t see the ads as
the risk; he is the risk,” said
Tim Miller, a spokesman for
Our Principles, a Republican
group that has spent more
than $16 million this year
on TV, radio and digital ads,
including the spot featuring women reading Trump
comments. “That’s the point
we’re trying to make. Don’t
nominate someone this vulnerable to attacks from the
Democratic Party.”
Our Principles embraces
its role as potential spoiler:
One online advertisement
begins by warning viewers
that what they are about to
see would be repeated by
Democrats if Trump is the
GOP nominee.
A similar scenario played
out four years ago with Mitt
Romney.
At the start of the 2012
GOP primaries, more voters
had a favorable than unfavorable view of Romney. During
the primaries, though, the
super PAC backing Newt
Gingrich portrayed him as
an unfeeling businessman.
By the time Romney
earned the nomination in
April, his numbers had
flipped, with more voters
viewing him negatively than
positively. Over the summer,
Priorities USA built on the
Gingrich group’s volleys to
attack Romney in the general election.
Events could unfold similarly for Trump.
Ratings of Trump among
the general public have been
consistently negative, but
recent surveys have suggested those views have grown
stronger since the contentious primaries began.
An NBC News-Wall Street
Journal poll conducted
in March found a slight
increase in negative ratings
of Trump among registered
voters since their previous
survey in February, from
59 percent to 64 percent,
with “very negative” ratings
going from 49 percent to 54
percent.
Trump is also facing a
heavier onslaught of attacks
from his own party than
Clinton, the Democratic
front-runner. The AP found
just one in 33 ads dings
Clinton, most coming from
Republican groups.

Personal pressure will mount if
you are indecisive. Controlling your
emotions will be necessary if you
want to be taken seriously. You can
make headway if you are precise
and pay attention to detail. If you
display your skills and versatility,
others will take notice.
ARIES (March 21-April 19) -Adapt your plans and proceed with
them. If you get in the right frame
of mind, you will receive positive
results. Assess a relationship if you
feel the other party is withholding
information. Ask direct questions.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20)
-- Don’t make an impulsive move if
your emotions are calling the shots.
Focus on what you do best and how
to use your attributes to get ahead.
Your persuasiveness is an asset.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20)
-- Take part and reach out to help
bring about positive change at home
or in your community. Don’t let
uncertainty confuse you or stop you
from doing your best. Set a good
example.
CANCER (June 21-July 22)
-- Indecisiveness will work against
you. Consider your options and
move forward. Taking part in something that reunites you with old
buddies or colleagues will lead to a
window of opportunity.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Stay
busy. A day trip will motivate you
to try something new. Do your
part by contributing knowledge
and solutions. A positive change at
home will lighten the mood.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
-- Your entertaining, fun-to-be-with
attitude will draw attention. Focus
on love, romance and socializing.
Relationships will be enhanced and
self-improvement projects will pay
off.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23)
-- Expand your interests and friendships. What you learn from observing others will encourage you to
be money smart. Do your best to
complete contracts, settlements or
legal issues.
Monty
Soup to Nutz
Thatababy
Moderately Confused
Herman
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22)
-- Recognize a problem and take
action. Losing control of a personal
situation will make it difficult to
regain ground. Nurture what you
have and eliminate what isn’t working for you.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec.
21) -- You should concentrate on
your home, family and what you
know and do best. Personal changes
will enhance your relationship with
loved ones and friends, and position
you for greater popularity and success.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
-- Don’t give in to emotional instability. Stick close to home and take
care of matters that will add to your
personal security. Nurture important relationships and make home
improvements.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19)
-- Observe how others respond
to you. Protect your property and
don’t lend or borrow money or
possessions. Look for professional
opportunities that will increase your
income or reputation. Don’t neglect
your health.
PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -Money matters must not be ignored.
Overspending will lead to unnecessary stress. Back away from anyone
asking for too much and offering
too little. Moderation should be
your goal.
Celebrity Cipher
Reality Check
Here’s How It Works:
Sudoku puzzles are formatted as a 9x9 grid, broken
down into nine 3x3 boxes. To solve a sudoku, the
numbers 1 through 9 must fill each row, column and
box. Each number can appear only once in each row,
column and box. You can figure out the order in which
the numbers will appear by using the numeric clues
already provided in the boxes. The more numbers you
name, the easier it gets to solve the puzzle!
