    The Abilene

    Wrong number? Youre not aloneBy TIM HORAN

    [email protected]

    Frustration! was a common word echoedfrom Abilene businesses whose phone num-

    bers have been published incorrectly in thephone book.

    One of those businesses is the HeartlandHealth Care Clinic and home of most of

    Abilenes physicians. The number for Heart-land Surgery is also incorrect in the new YP

    phone book.

    Memorial Health System just got nishedcorrecting a number in the last book only tond when the new book arrived the numberof its clinic, plus Drs. Brian Holmes, Doug

    Sheern and William Short is off a number.That number should be 785-263-4131. Thenumber for Heartland Surgery should be 785-263-0505.

    MHS is aware of the inaccuracies andapologize to our patients for the confusioncaused by the errors in the phone book, saidAnn Brussow, marketing & communicationsdirector for Memorial Health System. We are

    working through how to correct them for theDecember 2014 book.

    Brussow said the hospital just nished work-ing to get a number taken out of the next pub-lishing of the YP phone book, which she saidwas a frustrating process.

    The incorrect listing is for Memorial Hospi-

    tal with a 12th Street address, which is actuallya residence, published with a fax number.

    We did get that xed so it will not come outin the next book, Brussow said.

    She said that number came to light when apatient kept calling the published 200 numberand became very frustrated when no one an-

    swered.

    Steve Foster, owner of Steves Auto Care,has had the same number, 785-263-4087,since the automotive repair business opened

    in the 1980s. When the 2013-2014 YP bookcame out, the phone number was publishedincorrectly not only in the white pages but the

    yellow pages as well.

    One of my customers couldnt get throughand called my dad to nd out what the dealwas, Foster said. Fosters father, Jim, worksat the business as well.

    Foster said there are still a lot of people thatdont put phone numbers on cell phones con-tact lists and still use the phone book.

    Younger people have everything on speeddial, he said.

    Foster said that the number changed whenhe dropped AT&T phone service for another

    provider.

    They wont do anything about it, he saidof the phone book provider. My story is that

    Green UnitedWays new

    directorBy TIFFANY [email protected]

    United Way of DickinsonCounty has a new execu-tive director: Chapman HighSchool alumna Jeni Green.

    Green has been leadingthe organization since Jan.2, after previously servingas a project assistant at theQuality of Life Coalition.Her experience with the QLChelped cement her new job.

    United Way and Quality ofLife Coalition had been shar-

    ing personnel, so they werevery close-knit, and Jeni had

    been working for QLC, so shewas there and knew some ofthe process already, UnitedWay chairman Don Hellwigsaid. She had other activi-ties that would help her andstill provide us with the timewe needed. She had some ofthe skill sets in terms of basicIT that we were going to hiresomeone else. All of thosecame together.

    The local United Way has12 board members and workswith 14 area non-prots, in-

    cluding Kids in Crisis, CourtAppointed Special Advo-cates, Children and FamiliesCoalition and The HOPECenter, Inc.

    So far, I think, the bestis yet to come, she said.Working in the community,raising funds for nonprotsin the area theres a great

    board of directors that arevery involved.

    Hellwig said hiring Greenwas a clear-cut decision.

    She was available, she hadthe recommendation of our

    previous executive director(Katie Allen) and several of

    our board members alreadyknew her, Hellwig said. Allof those things came together

    to make it work for every-body.

    In addition to Greensbackground and experiencewith United Way processes,

    Hellwig said he appreciatesGreens devotion to the mis-sion of United Way.

    The young lady has a pas-sion for what were doing,shes certainly qualied tech-nically and she has a desireto help people in the commu-nity get things done, he said.More than anything else, wewant the community to knowthat both Jeni and the boardare committed to helpingthose organizations that lookto us for support.

    After graduating fromCHS in 1997, Green studied

    sports management at KansasUniversity and is currentlycontinuing her education atFort Hays State University;worked in federal govern-ment, technology, nanceand telecommunicationsindustries in Kansas City,got married and had a set oftwins, in addition to her workat QLC.

    Green said she does nothave plans yet to make anymajor changes to UnitedWay, other than simply con-tinuing to partner with otherorganizations to raise fundsfor local charities.

    Katie did such a great job,Green said. Shes left bigshoes to ll.

    New sprouts

    Program aims to get kids moving to musicBy TIFFANY RONEY

    [email protected]

    When a former countrymusic soloist enrolled herchildren in a music and move-ment class and then foundherself invited to teach a ses-sion, she was thankful for theopportunity. There was onething, about the job, though,that she said made her sad.

    They didnt say anythingabout God, and it just kind of

    bummed me out, Laura Edi-ger said.

    Laura will begin her rst

    session leading Sing n Sproutnext week, which is a musicand movement class featuring

    Christian themes.

    She eventually quit the joband pulled her two daugh-ters out of the classes whenthey moved from Coloradoto South Dakota. Two years

    later, Ediger and her hus-band, Tracy, who grew up inAbilene, had a son, Garrett,

    now 3.

    Though she wasnt a fan ofthe secular environment ofthe classes, she returned tothem because she wanted togive her son a chance to learn

    rhythm and tone, exercise hislittle body and interact withother children and adults in

    a safe, playful environment.When she re-entered the min-iature world of music andmovement, she met Jenni Au-venshine, founder of Sing nSprout.

    She had written the Chris-tian music and movement cur-riculum, so I went to the class-es and I said, This is fabulousstuff. Are you promoting this,or what do you do with this?Laura said. And she said,Well, I just needed to hearthat that it was good, soshe and I started to work to-

    gether and teach it in SiouxFalls together, and it really

    Tiffany Roney Reector-Chronicle

    Laura Ediger helps her son, Garrett Ediger, 3, during a music and movement session recently. Ediger will begin holding sessionsof Sing n Sprout at Emmanuel United Methodist Church on Feb. 13.

    Thats so exciting for me, because I feel like this is

    something that usually the big cities have, and how

    wonderful to be able to provide a music and movement

    program right here in Abilene, starting in a small town.

    This is the first place that it would start in the whole

    state of Kansas, and Emmanuel opened the doors.

    Kansans celebrate statehood, dedicate CapitolBy JOHN MILBURN

    The Associated Press

    TOPEKA Gov. Sam Brown-back on Wednesday formal ly sa-luted the revamped Kansas State-house, dedicating the buildingsrenovation to what he called theglory of God and the people of the

    great state of Kansas.

    Brownback was joined at theCapitol by historical re-enactors,

    current and former legislatorsand hundreds of Kansas residentsto formally dedicate the updated

    building on the 153rd anniversaryof statehood.

    His remarks were followed by a19-gun salute from howitzers red

    by the Kansas National Guard andthe cutting of cake.

    The 13-year renovation costnearly $330 million and includednew ventilation and electrical sys-

    tems, replacement of the roof anddome, and construction of a visitorcenter. The project was nancedwith bonds.

    Construction on the Statehousebegan in October 1866 and wascompleted 37 years later. The orig-inal cornerstone was dedicated butlater removed when issues aroseover the stability of the founda-tion. The building was never for-mally dedicated once completed

    over concerns about the length ofthe project and the expense at thetime.

    We stand here today with thenished product. All I can say iswow! said House Speaker RayMerrick, a Stilwell Republican.

    Merrick recalled that he took asummer job in 1958 laying con-crete sidewalks at the Statehouse,remarking at the time that the

    building was already showing

    signs of needing repair.

    This is the end result and we

    should all be proud of it, Merrick

    said.

    Speakers took turns Wednesday

    praising the restored grandeur of

    the building and how it keeps the

    vision of the states founders to

    create a monument to democra-cy on the Kansas plains.

    The young lady has a

    passion for what were

    doing, shes certainly

    qualified technically and

    she has a desire to help

    people in the community

    get things done.

    has done well. I was saying,It must be a God thing.

    The Edigers felt comfortableand settled in South Dakota,

    but after Tracy lost his job,

    they sought the Lord throughprayer and Bible study andfelt like He was inviting themto move back to Abilene.

    At rst, Laura, who is origi-nally from San Diego, wasreluctant to move to Kansas.

    I was like, God, I wasjust beginning to teach Singn Sprout in Sioux Falls, andthats my passion: God andchildren and music. And Ifeel like I nally found whatIm supposed to be doing inmy life at 40, and now yourecalling me away? she said.And Hes like, Im not call-ing you away Im calling

    you to plant Sing n Sprout inKansas.

    Laura plans to teach herrst session of Kansas Singn Sprout on Thursday, Feb.13. The rst series of classeswill run through April 3, andthe second series is slated forApril 10 through May 29.

    All of the classes will takeplace from 10 to 10:45 a.m.at Emmanuel United Meth-odist Church, Room 205,1300 N. Vine St. Both seriesare Mommy and Me styleclasses, in which parents areencouraged to stay for the

    45-minute sessions.Thats so exciting for me,because I feel like this issomething that usually the bigcities have, and how wonder-ful to be able to provide a mu-sic and movement programright here in Abilene, startingin a small town, she said.This is the rst place that itwould start in the whole stateof Kansas, and Emmanuelopened the doors.

    While Laura explained thebeauty of Sing n Sprout, sheturned on a CD of the musicand let Garrett play with shak-ers and scarves.

    Im not working Imhaving fun, getting to playwith children and make mu-sic and sing, she said. Theother thing, honestly, thatsexciting for me about Sing nSprout is that were hiding theword of God in the hearts ofchildren.

    In addition to providingfun experiences and teach-ing Christian values, Laurasaid Sing n Sprout teachesrhythm and beat, in whichchildren have the opportunityto hit drums and use handheld

    percussion instruments like

    sticks, tambourines and ngercymbals.

    I try to bring a different in-strument every week to intro-duce them to, and I let them

    pass it around, she said. Weput a drum in the center andlet the kids do it to their ownspeed.

    They also dance, learn basicanatomy and exercise theircreativity.

    Well talk about their bod-ies, we do movement exercis-es and we move the scarvesto the beat, she said. Weroll them up and we use ourimagination with our scarves,

    so well even have snowballghts. We follow the lead ofthe children, too, with theirimaginations, so well just dowhatever they want to do withthe scarves.

    Furthermore, Laura saidSing n Sprout serves as a so-cial time for parents to inter-act with one another.

    Its almost like a little playdate where moms can meetand make friends, and its justa fun time for all, she said.Even though its for the kids,I think its a great sense ofcommunity for the moms aswell.

    Laura met Tracy when hewas a member of the U.S.Navy in her home city in Cal-ifornia when his ship brokedown. Shortly after marrying,the Edigers moved to Nash-ville for Laura to pursue acareer as a country music star.While in Nashville, Lauraearned a bachelors degree inmusic.

    I did some really fun things opened for different art-ists, did music publishing anddemos and just absolutelyloved it, but I still felt likethere was an emptiness, likeit wasnt really exactly what

    I thought it would be, shesaid. I felt God saying to me,I have something more foryou, so I made a crazy deci-sion. I said, by the time Im30, if I dont have a recorddeal, then this isnt what Godhas for me, so were leav-ing.

    When 30 hit, Laura still had

    no record deal, so she blewout the candles and packedup for Abilene. For two years,they spent time with Tracys

    parents, and Laura sang lo-cally while Tracy earned hisdegree from K-State. Aftergraduating, Tracy got a job

    in Colorado, so they movedto the mountains and startedhaving children.

    Thats when Laura discov-ered music and movement.Then, when they moved toSioux Falls, she discoveredthe Christian version.

    Since then, she has taughtSing n Sprout at Mothers ofPreschoolers meetings, class-es with and without founderAuvenshine and at a VacationBible School.

    Its so wild when youlook back and see how Godworks, Laura said.

    Laura said she and Tracy are

    happy to be back in Abilene,and their three children areenjoying living in their dadshometown, near their grand-

    parents, for the rst time.

    I have to tell you afterliving in California, Ten-nessee, Colorado and South

    Dakota the people here(in Abilene) are so loving.Theyre accepting. They arewonderful, she said. We re-ally wanted a fabulous com-munity to raise our kids in,and God was like, Well, Ivegot just the place for you.

    After all of their moves fromsouth to north and back again,Laura said it was refreshing tonot feel as though her familywas packing up to be uproot-ed once again.

    It didnt feel like we weremoving again to start all overagain it felt like we weremoving home, she said.

    Members of the Lecomp-ton Re-enactors roamed the

    The Associated Press

    TOPEKA Kansas Insurance

    Commissioner Sandy Praeger is

    opposing fellow Republican Sam

    Brownbacks re-election as governor

    this year and has helped form a new,

    anti-Brownback group that includes

    his Democratic challengers lieuten-

    ant-governor running mate.

    The Lawrence Journal-World

    reports that Praeger went publicWednesday when the group an-

    nounced its formation and posted a

    video online featuring its six spon-

    sors, all women who are or have beenprominent in Kansas politics. Three

    are Democrats and three, including

    Praeger, are GOP moderates.

    The sponsors include Jill Docking,

    a Wichita businesswoman and former

    state Board of Regents member whos

    running for lieutenant governor with

    Democratic gubernatorial candidate

    Paul Davis, the Kansas House minor-

    ity leader. Also among them is Kan-

    sas Democratic Party Chairwoman

    Joan Wagnon, a former state revenue

    secretary and ex-Topeka mayor.

    Davis has attempted to woo unaf-

    liated voters and GOP moderates

    unhappy with the conservative Re-

    publican governor by making public

    school funding a key issue. Davis and

    some moderate Republicans have

    been critical of massive personal

    income tax cuts enacted at Brown-

    backs urging to stimulate the econ-

    omy, arguing that the reductions will

    starve school of funds.

    In the video, Praeger says, Many

    of us, many of my friends, would say,

    Gosh how much worse can it get?

    And then it just kept getting worse.

    Praeger, who is not seeking re-elec-

    tion, already has broken with most

    Kansas Republicans over the federal

    health care overhaul championed by

    President Barack Obama. Shes de-

    scribed the Democratic presidents

    signature domestic policy as a good

    step toward providing universal

    health coverage, while Brownback

    and other GOP leaders are strong

    critics.

    we went with Eagle (Communications)so now they wont do anything for us be-cause we are not a customer anymore.

    Getting a phone number corrected isnot an easy task, said Dr. Mike Whitehairat the Abilene Animal Hospital, whichhad an incorrect number published in thelast two books. That number is 785-263-2301.

    Whitehair said he believes that thenumber in the phone book changed whenAAH switched phone services.

    Weve been battling this thing for acouple years, Whitehair said of the in-correct listing. The work order camethrough last week. It moved at glacialspeed. It wasnt fun.

    Whitehair said the trouble startedfor Abilene Animal Hospital about 18months ago when the veterinary clinicdecided to change to a new phone sys-tem.

    We attempted to disconnect withAT&T. There was a decoupling withAT&T except for the DSL line, he said.

    He said a company called YP was tak-ing over the phone book publishing at thesame time.

    I spent about two hours trying to trackit down. I talked to people from two dif-ferent foreign countries that I am surewere service centers that were not help-ful, Whitehair said. Finally I get thiswonderful lady and I dont even knowher name or where she worked out of.She got it solved. We got all of the thingscorrected.

    AAH was also able to get the wrongnumber to roll over into the correct num-

    ber.

    You dont know going into it that youwant to talk with AT&T small businessand that number just isnt accessible ei-ther on their website or other printedmaterial. You have to call around. Oftentimes you would get a connection withsomeone to talk to and you could havea 30 or 40 minute wait. It happened to

    be snowing that day so I just worked atmy desk.

    These companies are not putting anyresources into customer service. My in-tent is to not beat up the employees down

    in the trenches but recognize that the sys-tem is transitioned to a whole different

    playing eld than it was. I would guess

    that these other businesses have a similarstory as mine.

    Dickinson County has a long history ofproblems with numbers being listed cor-rectly.

    We have fought phone numbers formany years, said County Administra-tor Brad Homman, referring to the phone

    book. They always have problems.

    He went through the current listingand found that all of the county numberswere correct but there was no listing forthe Register of Deeds, 785-263-3073.

    A couple errors showed up in the 2012-2013 phone book that continued into the2013-2014 book. The number for theAbilene swimming pool should be 785-263-7866.

    The number for Great Life Golf andFitness-Abilene, which is still listed un-der its former listing of Abilene CountryClub, should be 785-263-3811.

    Attempts to reach WP, which publishedthe phone book, for comments were un-successful.

    What do yourespond withgame values?

    BRIDGE by

    PHILLIP ALDER

    Yesterday, we looked athe Truscott two-no-trumpesponse over an opponentsakeout double after partneras opened one of a major. I

    said that it shows at least four-card support for the major andgame-invitational values. But

    hat does responder do withgame-forcing cards -- todays

    North hand, for example?There are two sensible so-

    lutions. You can still respond

    wo no-trump, promisinggame-invitational strength orore. If opener signs off in

    hree of his major, responderaises to game. Or, if you doot like the ambiguity, you

    can respond three no-trump.Discuss it with your partner.

    In this deal, South wouldrobably bid four spades overwo no-trump, hoping that his

    singleton will prove useful.Against four spades, West

    leads the queen of hearts. Howshould declarer plan the play?

    First, South must count hislosers. There are four: one ineach suit. Next, he checks win-

    ers. There are five spades,wo hearts, two diamonds and

    a club or two -- enough to get

    home as long as the defenders

    do not take their four tricks

    first.

    The careless declarer wins

    trick one and immediately

    pl ay s a tr um p. Ho we ve r,

    West wins and returns a heart.

    Suddenly, South has those four

    unavoidable losers.

    The more thoughtful declar-

    er realizes he must do some-

    thing about his heart loser

    immediately. So, he wins the

    first trick in his hand and leads

    a club. East takes dummys

    queen with his ace and returns

    a heart, but South wins on the

    boa rd and discard s his la st

    heart on the club king. Then

    he draws trumps as quickly as

    possible. 2014 UFS, Dist. by Universal Uclick for

    The U.S. Department of AgriculturesNatural Resources Conservation Service hasextended the deadline for new enrollments

    in the Conservation Stewardship programfor scal year 2014. Producers interested in

    participating in the program can submit ap-plications to NRCS through Feb. 7, 2014

    Extending the enrollment deadline will

    make it possible for more farmers, ranch-ers and forest landowners to apply for thisimportant Farm Bill conservation program,

    NRCS Chief Jason Weller said. Throughtheir conservation actions, these good stew-ards are ensuring that their operations aremore productive and sustainable over the

    long run and CSP can help them take theiroperations to the next level of natural re-

    source management.Weller said the announcement is another

    example of USDAs comprehensive focus onpromoting environmental conservation andstrengthening the rural economy, and it is areminder that a new Food, Farm and Jobs billis pivotal to continue these efforts. CSP is inits fth year, and so far, NRCS has partneredwith producers to enroll more than 59 mil-lion acres across the nation.

    The program emphasizes conservationperformance producers earn higher pay-ments for higher performance. In CSP, pro-ducers install conservation enhancements tomake positive changes in soil quality, soilerosion, water quality, water quantity, airquality, plant resources, animal resources

    and energy use.Eligible landowners and operators in Kan-

    sas can enroll through Feb. 7 to be eligible

    during 2014. While local NRCS ofces ac-

    cept the CSP applications year round, NRCS

    evaluates applications during announced

    ranking periods.

    A CSP self-screening checklist is available

    to help producers determine if the program

    is suitable for their operation. The checklist

    highlights basic information about the CSP

    eligibility requirements, stewardship thresh-

    old requirements and payment types.

    Stewardship program deadline extended

    To burn, or not to burnBy Dusty Tacha

    NRCS Rangeland Specalist

    With the recent drought stillweighing on the minds and

    bank accou nts of may, thereare vital management decisionto be made moving forward.Many producers had prescribed

    burns plann ed during the pastfew years for grasslands, anddid not conduct those burns

    becau se of the extremely dry

    conditions. Now, the questionfor the upcoming spring is: to

    burn, or not to burn?

    The answer to this questionhinges on several factors. Firstand foremost, is the droughtreally over? Although manyareas received what was re-ally an unseasonable amountof precipitation this fall, onlytime will tell if the drought hastruly broken. The critical pointin this factor with regard to

    burni ng will be what preci pi-tation this spring is like. Thesecond factor is what the ob-

    jecti ves of the burn are? Howcritical is it to do the burn im-mediately? A third and final

    important factor is how the

    grass was managed during

    drought.

    If spring 2014 moisture is fa-vorable (within 75 percent of

    normal for February to April),

    then burning in most cases willbe acceptab le. This is the time-

    frame when our most critical

    preci pitat ion occurs regardinggrass growth toward health and

    vigor of the stand. If precipita-

    tion is weak during this timeperio d, and one can afford to

    once again postpone the burn,it would be wise to do so.

    There are a wide array ofburn objec tives , and some of

    them are more time critical

    than others. The most criticalof situation is a pasture with

    numerous cedars and hedgetrees that are approaching the

    board erlin e size (greater than

    5 feet tall) of fire being an ef-fective tool to control such a

    woody invasion. If you have

    this kind of situation, then youmight find it best to accept the

    risks of a burn and proceed unless, of course, we find our-

    selves short on spring precipi-tation. If conditions seem riskyand the objectives of your burndo no have the above urgency,the postponing the burn untilthe climate pattern stabilizes iscertainly an option.

    How grass was managed dur-ing the drought plays a rolein the spring 2014 burn deci-sion from several angles. First,overgrazing weakened rootsystems, regardless of lacking

    preci pitat ion. Drought condi -tions amplify this situation,weakening roots to a level ofvery poor plant vigor. If thiswas your situation during thedrought, and a burn can be

    postp oned, then it would be awise choice to do so, regard-less of spring precipitation.Easing up on the grazing pres-sure, giving plants a chance torebuild roots prior to the next

    burn can pay big divid ends.Second, this past years graz-ing, especially in the latter halfof the season, dictates whetheror not theres even enough fuelto carry an effective fire. Cur-rent fuel loads can be deceiv-

    ing, as many pastures appear

    to have plenty of grass remain-

    ing; however, much of this re-

    maining material is seed stalk,

    not leafy matter that makes

    good fuel.

    The decision to burn weighs

    on all three factors and no two

    situations will likely be the

    same. This decision will be

    clear-cut and easy for some,

    but will t ake more weighing of

    risks and become very difficultfor others. Prescribed burning

    is an extreme necessity to the

    preservat ion of our grass land

    for its value as a grazing re-

    source and wildlife habitat.

    Without this valuable tool, we

    will continue to see loss of

    grassland to woody plant inva-

    sion. However, burning must

    be don e with prude nce in plan-

    ning.

    burning or developing a burn

    What inspired you to go into educa-

    tion? In college, I was a big-brotherto an elementary student and could tellhow much he enjoyed it when I came. Ialso helped run baseball camps for kids

    and always enjoyed

    working with them.Working with kidsand seeing themgrow as a personand student is a veryrewarding career.

    What broughtyou to Abilene?My in-laws are inthe area, so I al-ways got a chanceto visit Abilene at different times. I lovedhow proud the community was with theAmerican ags lining Buckeye in thesummer, the CKFF parade and events,

    Christmas tree lane and the Easter egg

    hunt. There was so many things for a

    family to do throughout the year and

    I wanted my own kids to grow up in a

    small town.

    A memorable teaching moment:

    In the rst semester of my rst year of

    teaching, I had a student go into a dia-

    betic seizure in my classroom and put out

    a toilet paper re in the bathroom using

    toilet bowl water. Both of these events

    quickly taught me the importance of

    planning for the unexpected and know-

    ing what you can do when an emergency

    strikes.

    back in the second quarterwith a 19-5 effort.

    We havent played a game

    in over a week, coach KyleBecker said. That really

    showed. We came out of thegate and really overplayedeverything on the defensiveend and gave up several easy

    baskets to start the game. Af-

    ter we settled in the secondquarter, I felt like we got intoa rhythm and we were solid.

    Parker Base led the Cow-

    boys in scoring with 16points by shooting eight-of-nine from the eld.

    Parker was really goodfor us again tonight, Beckersaid. He was efcient on theoffensive end and did a lot ofthings that dont always endup in the box score.

    Our big guys Sam Burt,Jacob Shartz, Ben Veach andParker ONeal did a great

    job on the glass and they(Riley County) didnt havean answer for them.

    No. 6 Kansas tops No. 16 ISU, 92-81The Associated Press

    LAWRENCE Fred Hoiberg haswalked into Allen Fieldhouse to faceKansas enough times as a player andcoach to anticipate what would happento Iowa State on Wednesday night.

    First, the sixth-ranked Jayhawkswould go on a run.

    Then, it would be up to his team torespond.

    Sure enough, Kansas raced out to abig early lead, only for the 16th-rankedCyclones to storm back and tie thegame. But Iowa State never could getover the hump, and the Jayhawks man-aged to close with a ourish for a 92-81victory.

    They came out on re, Hoibergsaid. They do such a good job of jump-ing on you. But you cant panic and wedidnt. I give our guys credit for climb-ing back into the game and cutting that

    thing to one late.Andrew Wiggins scored a career-high

    29 points, including six straight late in

    the game, to help push the Jayhawks

    winning streak to seven straight games.

    Wiggins, the nations No. 1 recruit,

    has caught re after a slow start to his

    college career. He had 27 points in Sat-

    urdays win at TCU, and matched that

    with an emphatic dunk that gave Kan-

    sas an 81-72 lead with just under 3 min-

    utes remaining in the game.

    Hes so aggressive right now, Hoi-

    berg said. You can tell hes oozing

    with condence.

    Perry Ellis added 20 points for Kansas

    (16-4, 7-0 Big 12), which has won ve

    straight over the Cyclones. Joel Embiidadded 14 points and 11 rebounds, while

    Naadir Tharpe had 12 points and 12 as-

    sists and Wayne Selden had 11 points

    and ve assists.

    Georges Niang led the Cyclones (15-4, 3-4) with 24 points. DeAndre Kane

    added 22 points and Melvin Ejim, bat-

    tling foul trouble much of the game,

    nished with 18 points and eight re-

    bounds.

    We just stayed poised, Kane said.

    We knew in this building they were

    going to go on runs.

    Iowa State started the season with 14

    straight wins, but has dropped four of

    its last ve. That includes a 77-70 loss

    to the Jayhawks earlier this month in

    Ames.

    The Jayhawks held on despite a

    shortened bench. Forward Tarik Black

    missed his second game with an ankle

    injury while guard Conner Frankampdid not suit up because of a knee injury.

    It didnt seem to matter early in the

    game.

    The Jayhawks roared to a 30-14 lead

    in the opening minutes, dominating onthe offensive glass and taking advan-

    tage of rapidly retreating Cyclones on

    the defensive boards.

    We were missing shots and they were

    making shots, Kane said. Wasnt re-

    ally anything we were doing wrong.

    Defensively we did our job.

    Just as quickly, though, Iowa State

    whittled into the lead.

    The comeback began with a jam off

    an alley-oop pass by Ejim, and picked

    up momentum when the Cyclones hit

    3-pointers on four straight trips down

    court. By the time Monte Morris n-

    ished off the run, done mostly while

    Wiggins sat on the bench, the lead had

    been trimmed to 37-34.We came out and stubbed our toe

    early so we knew we had to battle back

    when we had our backs up against the

    wall, Niang said.

    injury all season. He couldnot run full speed and waslimited moving laterally. Asa primarily man-to-man cov-erage team, Bailey was at anunsurmountable disadvan-tage with no power or explo-siveness tracing the steps ofwide receivers through theirroutes.

    It was tough for him,said safety Mike Adams, a10-year veteran. He be-came more of a coach. Whenhe was on the sidelines withhis visor on, he was coach-ing all of the young guys.It brought the coach out ofhim. But he was so excitedto be back.

    Baileys injury preservedChris Harris starting roleopposition Domonique Rod-gers-Cromartie, and Harriswas arguably the top cover-age defender on the roster allseason.

    In the AFC DivisionalPlayoffs, Harris went downwith a season-ending kneeinjury.

    Enter Bailey, who came tothe Broncos via trade withthe Washington Redskins.The deal sent Bailey to Den-

    ver for running back Clinton

    Portis.

    Many seasons passed with

    great individual success, andBailey always thought hed

    get a chance to play in tro-

    phy games.

    Every year, I dont have

    doubt my team could get

    there, Bailey said. I al-

    ways think that I have a

    shot. Thats the only reason

    I still lace them up. I want to

    play in games like this. This

    is my rst opportunity. Im

    looking forward to it, mak-

    ing sure Im ready.
