they may encounter in their lives. “But today, we are free to make every decision for ourselves...and it is scary,” she said. “It’s no wonder that teen anxiety is at an all-time high.” She recognized several individuals whom she credited with having helped to “push” her to the next chapter in her life and asked her classmates to take time and thank the individuals in their lives who have done the same for them. “Identify those who have pushed you and show them your gratitude,” she said. “Then hold tightly to those who will guide you through the next phases of your life.” Miss Gass concluded by reminding her

classmates that fear is a natural part of life and that in order to be a success, it must be faced head on. “If you remember nothing today, please know that you can’t enjoy success without facing fear,” she said. “The world is scary and success is waiting. Go out there and face your fear, take a risk and find success.” Miss Gilham said that while she has a feeling of uncertainty about the future, there is also a feeling of excitement and reminded her classmates they are not alone as they begin their journey into the See THS, Page 6

A reminder that mowing grass clippings into the street is illegal and may result in you receiving a ticket for littering (215.530 Littering). It not only makes the city look run down, it also clogs the storm drains and causes flooding.

77 Receive Diplomas

Valedictorian Werthen Gass encouraged her Trenton High School classmates to “face their fears” as they go out into the world during commencement exercises on Sunday at the Ketcham Community Center. Miss Gass, along with salutatorian Emma Gilham, were the guest speakers for the ceremony, which saw 77 seniors receive their diplomas as part of the THS Class of 2019. The top 10 academic students, along with students who earned recognition based on academics, ACT test scores and attendance, were also honored during the event. The Top 10 (from third to 10th) included Ainsley Tolson, Taylor Richman, Saedee Jackson, Latorrie Johnson, Karissa Brock, Sidney Lynch, Melea Farmer and Dylan Harris. Others earning academic recognition were Adrianna Overton, Nick Shields, Matt Sibbit and Jadan Whitney. Miss Gass told her classmates that while she is “terrified of every new experience” that she encounters, she has also learned that “fun and success lies on the other side of fear.” She gave several examples of class members who might not have achieved the accolades they had during their high school years had they not taken a risk. “What a boring four years it would have been for all of us if no one ever took a risk,” she said. She said that as graduation approaches, it was natural for her classmates to be fearful, noting that they have been cautioned by their parents about the things

Members of the 2019 Grundy R-5 High School graduating class received good advice from two class members during commencement exercises held Sunday afternoon at the school. Valedictorian Emma Baxter used a numbers theme in an address to 13 fellow graduates. “37.2 trillion cells to carry oxygen through your body. 100 billion nerves to help you pass Mr. Fox’s tests. 650 muscles to help you make that free throw or hit it out of the park. 206 bones to help support your 79 organs that together make up the one you,” she explained. “These numbers make us what we are, but they don’t make us who we are. The things that happen in our lives are what gives those numbers value. What gives us value and makes us who we are. 157,784 hours; 6,574 days and 216 months. At 18, this is how long we have been writing our story. But it’s what happens within these numbers, with this time, the things that don’t have a numerical value of their own, what you can’t measure that makes us who we are. It’s the memories and the moments, the achievements and the milestones. These are the things that have real value.” She went on to share how moving from the many “firsts” of school through to the “lasts” have given her life more meaning and graduation is another one of those transitions that is a “big moment” and has a lot of value. Fourteen, she said, may be a small number when it comes to graduating classes, but it represents big potential. “There are 14 individuals in this graduating class. All 14 of us have our own stories, our own things that we want to accomplish, our own goals and our own values that we treasure. Some of us are heading eight hours away for college, some of us are staying close to home. No matter what your future endeavors hold, I know all of you will do big things that hold great value. As the quote

As we move on from high school and go to college or get a job, I want you all to find value in every single day. Make a lot of memories and remember the moments. This is what you will tell your kids about.” Salutatorian Kendra Betz used a math analogy in addressing her classmates. “In junior high I was introduced to the concept of absolute value. I learned that absolute value is the distance a number is from zero; there are no negative numbers, just the See R-5, Page 8

484 Earn Diplomas, Certificates

NCMC Graduates Largest Class Ever The largest graduating class in the history of North Central Missouri College - 484 students - walked across the stage in the Ketcham Community Center to receive 515 diplomas and certificates during two ceremonies on Saturday. Mike Thomson, vice president of the Missouri Coordinating Board of Education, delivered the commencement address during the morning ceremony while Steve Schieber, chief executive officer for the critical access region of the Saint Luke’s Health System, was the afternoon speaker. Morning Ceremony In his remarks, Thomson talked

about the importance of listening and having good communication skills knowing how to write, speak, express one’s self and be assertive. “But listening is more than just hearing,” he said. “It includes understanding, comprehending, critical analysis or judgement and it creates a relationship.” He encouraged students to not only listen to others, but to listen to themselves. “When you make personal decisions in your life, you normally listen to what your head says and you listen to what

Bulldogs’ Season Ends With 4-2 District Loss The third season in Trenton High School baseball history ended on Friday with a 4-2 loss to the Lathrop Mules at the Class 3, District 16 Tournament, hosted by Lathrop. Despite the loss and the final overall record of 5-15, Trenton’s team gave it a run in the district tournament, pressing the Mules to the very end. “We ended our season playing one of our best games,” Trenton Head Coach Joel Hultman said. “I like that we played well, but it stinks that

the season is over. These players were fun to be around and wanted to learn each game.” The Bulldogs do not graduate any of their varsity starters and will bring back basically everyone for next season. “A lot of these guys go right into summer baseball which is great,” Hultman said. “Next year we will focus on trying to win every conference game and playing our best at the end of the year so we can make a run in the playoffs.”

NATIONAL BASKETBALL ASSOCIATION Cleveland Hires Wolverine Coach

Cavs Sign Michigan's Beilein To Five-Year Deal CLEVELAND (AP) — The Cavaliers went back to college to get a coach. Cleveland has signed Michigan's John Beilein to a fiveyear contract, three people familiar with the decision told The Associated Press on Monday. The deal came together quickly in the past 24 hours and was finalized Sunday after the Cavs had spent the weekend in Denver interviewing several NBA assistants. The people spoke to The AP condition of anonymity because the team had not announced the hire. The 66-year-old Beilein does not have pro experience but he's long been regarded as one of college hoops' best minds. He guided Michigan to two Final Fours in the past seven years and has developed several top players. His hiring is a bit of a surprise since it was expected the Cavs would hire a younger coach for their growing team. Cleveland is expected to surround Beilein with an experienced staff. The Cavs were able to lure

Beilein away from Michigan, where he was the winningest coach in school history with a 278-150 record in 12 seasons. He had talks with the Detroit Pistons last year when they were in the market for a new coach, but Beilein said he was never offered that job. Beilein tweeted his thanks to Michigan's players and fans. The Cavs are rebuilding following a stormy 19-63 season that followed the departure of LeBron James. Cleveland fired coach Tyronn Lue after six games and then mutually parted ways with Larry Drew to begin a thorough search. Beilein inherits a young Cleveland team that includes All-Star forward Kevin Love and point guard Collin Sexton, who had a strong rookie season. Cleveland's roster should get an upgrade in the draft and the Cavs are hoping for some more luck in Tuesday's lottery, where the winner will have a shot at Duke All-American Zion Williamson. Cleveland has a 14 percent chance at getting the top pick.

Trenton senior Nick Shields shoots a backhand shot during the Bulldogs 5-1 district-championship dual victory over Chillicothe Thursday at the THS tennis courts. Shields combined with Creed Houghton for an 8-2 doubles victory and won his singles match 6-2, 6-0 as the Bulldogs claimed their third-straight district title.

Bulldogs Blast Chillicothe 5-1, Win Third-Straight District Crown “It’s a great day to be a Trenton Bulldog.” Trenton Head boys tennis Coach David Sager likes to use that phrase. He has said it a lot this season, in particular as the Bulldogs have rolled along and remained undefeated as a team at every turn.

When he said it following the championship dual of the Class 1, District 15 Tournament on Thursday at the THS tennis courts, it carried a little more weight than normal. The Trenton Bulldogs clinched their third-straight district championship, doing

so with a 5-1 rout of Chillicothe in the title dual. “This has been a fantastic year for our boys and I want to say it’s incredible to win team districts three years in a row,” Sager said. “This group of men have put in a lot of work over the years and it’s great that they get to move on to the team state tournament.” From the onset, the Bulldogs showed the district title was theirs to lose, taking two out of three doubles matches. Nick Shields and Creed Houghton combined to score an 8-2 victory in the numberone spot and the number-two doubles team of Gabe Swann and Jeremy Elliott had the same result, topping their Chillicothe foes by an 8-2 score as well. The only hiccup in doubles play, and in the dual as a whole, came in the numberthree match, where the Trenton duo of Isaac Harris and Weston Otto fell in a close battle, 8-6. However, the lone victory for Chillicothe proved to be a mirage as the Bulldogs dominated singles play. Swann was a 6-0, 6-1 winner at number two and Elliott scored a 6-3, 63 win at number four. The two early wins put Trenton just one victory away from sealing the dual and district title. Shields delivered the knockout blow for Trenton, picking up a 6-2, 6-0 win at number one. With five wins in hand and the district crown officially

clinched for the third-straight year, all other matches were suspended. While it was the third district title in a row for Trenton, this marks the first time that the Bulldogs have marched through districts with an unblemished record. Trenton now sits at 13-0 on the season. Trenton will be in sectional action on Saturday, May 18 in Marshall. Trenton will face Savannah - whom Trenton defeated 5-4 in the Bulldogs’ first dual of the season. Should Trenton repeat its victory over Savannah on that date, it will advance to the state quarterfinals, which will be played that same day in Marshall for the second time in the last three years. The Bulldogs defeated LeBlond before bowing out of the state playoffs to Pembroke Hill in the quarterfinal round two years ago and lost to Pembroke Hill in the sectional round last season. A trip to the quarterfinals would likely result in another match-up with Pembroke Hill, which will take on host Marshall in sectional action on the 18th. “I'm very proud of my team,” Sager said. “It’s a great day to be a Trenton Bulldog.” Trenton’s trip to the individual district tournament in Excelsior Springs, scheduled for Saturday, was pushed back to Monday due to inclement weather. Results from that event are available on the R-T website.

Trenton Girls Just Miss District Title The Trenton High School girls 4x400meter relay team did all it could do. The combo of Kristi Ewing, Lexi Gott, McKayla Blackburn and Lexi Whitaker a team with state medal aspirations placed first in the final event of the Class 3, District 8 track meet on Saturday in Chillicothe. The team won with a time of 4:11.85. However, when Lawsonâ€™s team crossed the line in third place, the Cardinals earned just enough points to fend off Trenton and deny the Bulldogs their first girls track district title since 2012. Lawsonâ€™s six points earned for placing third pushed its total to 135, Trentonâ€™s 10 points for finishing first gave the Bulldogs 132 for the meet. â€œYou know, we are disappointed we didnâ€™t win a district championship,â€? Trenton girls Coach Chris Parks said. â€œWe knew we had to have our best performance and overall the girls did really good. We have 15 events going to sectionals. Iâ€™m really proud of the way the girls preformed, we are just disappointed we couldnâ€™t get those three points somewhere. Lawson has a good team and we just came up short. We just have to regroup and get ready for sectionals.â€? Despite coming up painfully short in the team standings, Trenton had four other individual district champions to join the 4x400-meter relay team. The 4x200-meter relay team of Whitaker, Gott, Chandler Lynch and Ewing placed first as well, win-

ning with a time of 1:49.32 and the Bulldogs won three gold medals in the field. Maci Moore was first in the shot put with a throw of 37-1.5, Salem Croy won the javelin with a throw of 125-0 and Mykah Hurley was first in the long jump with a leap of 16-0.5. Moore also qualified for sectionals in the high jump, where she was third with a mark of 4-8. Emma Curtis followed Hurley in the long jump, placing fourth with a leap of 15-3.25 to advance to sectionals as well. Sidney Lynch advanced with a third-place showing in the javelin, throwing 109-1, and Kendall Crowley rounded out Trentonâ€™s sectional qualifiers in the field, placing fourth in the discus with a throw of 103-3. On the track, Whitaker and Ewing each advanced in two individual events as well. Whitaker was second in the 200-meter dash with a time of 26.89 and second in the 300-meter hurdles with a time of 47.22 - breaking her own school record in that event. Ewing, meanwhile, finished second in the 100-meter dash with a time of 13.27 and was third in the 400-meter dash with a time of 1:01.21. Other sectional qualifiers on the track for Trenton included Gwyneth Foster, fourth in the 800-meter run with a time of 2:41.85; and the 4x800-meter relay team of Blackburn, Foster, Gracyn Rongey and Morgan King, fourth with a time of 11:12.31. â€œI think we will get two-thirds through

(at sectionals),â€? Parks said. â€œWe have a very tough sectional. A good example is Lexi, breaking the school record in the 300-meter hurdles and finishing second. She knows she has to have the same kind of performance this week because our sectional is so tough. If you donâ€™t do that you donâ€™t get to state and I think she could place at state.â€? Trenton also gained points with fifththrough eighth-place finishes. Those earning points, despite falling short of qualifying for sectionals, included Moore, fifth in the triple jump with a mark of 326.25; Hurley, sixth in the triple jump with a mark of 32-3; Blackburn, fifth in the 800-meter run with a time of 2:44.85; Croy, fifth in the shot put with a throw of 32-1.75; Evy McCullough, seventh in the 100-meter hurdles with a time of 19.71; Rongey, eighth in the 1,600-meter run with a time of 6:30.31; Katie Markell, eighth in the 3,200-meter run with a time of 14:46.55; and the 4x100-meter relay team of Gott, Curtis, Hurley and Westerhof, eighth with a time of 55.32. Trenton and Lawson were in a twohorse race for the team title as Cameron was a distant third with 87 points. Chillicothe (74) and St. Pius X (54) rounded out the top five in the girls standings. Sectionals will be held this Saturday in Excelsior Springs. The top four in each event at that meet will advance to state the following weekend at Pete Adkins Stadium in Jeffersonâ€ˆCity.

Golden State Warriors vs. Portland Trailblazers

Curry Brothers To Face Off Inâ€ˆWest Finals By The Associated Press Dell Curry was standing near the loading dock at the Pepsi Center in Denver when Trail Blazers guard C.J. McCollum approached, gave him a big hug and asked, "Which shirt are you wearing" for the Western Conference final? "Got to flip a coin," Curry responded. Literally. With sons Stephen and Seth Curry becoming the first siblings to face each other in an NBA conference final, it's a dilemma most any parent would love to have. Dell and his wife, Sonya, decided wearing a split jersey with the Warriors and Blazers would be "too easy." Instead, they'll flip a coin before each game in the best-of-seven series to determine which team they'll represent. It will go something like this: If Sonya flips heads, she'll wear Blazers attire to support Seth, while Dell wears Stephen's Warriors colors. If the coin lands on tails, she'll dress in Warriors clothing while Dell dons Blazers gear. The next game Dell gets to flip the coin, and so on â€” until the series is decided. So who gets to flip the coin for Game 1 on Tuesday night? "Well, we have to flip to see who flips first," Dell said with a laugh. "There's going to be a lot of coin flipping going on." And a lot of traveling. Dell and Sonya Curry plan to attend every game, sitting with Stephen's wife Ayesha at Warriors home games and with Seth's fiance Callie Rogers when the Blazers host. But Dell, who played 16 seasons in the NBA and is currently a TV analyst for the Charlotte Hornets, said the entire situation is just a bit un-

nerving for him. "I normally don't get nervous for games when either one of them play," he said. "But I got a little nervous knowing how they're going to play against each other." As hard as this will be on the parents, Dell knows it will be even more difficult for his sons. "It's going to be tough to put everything aside and battle each other because as siblings they want each other to do well," Dell said. "They watch each other's games and cheer for each other." Earlier this year, the Curry boys competed against each other in the 3-point shootout at the All-Star game in their hometown of Charlotte, with 31-year-old Steph getting the best of his younger brother. Seth, 28, said it's hard to believe they'll now meet in the playoffs. "So many years I've watched Steph play in the Western Conference final, the

NBA Finals, being in the crowd," Seth Curry said. "It's going to be fun to be out there on the court, competing, to get to that final. It's a dream come true for us, but our families are going to have a lot of fun as well." Steph Curry has been to the NBA Finals four times, winning three with the Warriors. This is his brother's first playoff run. "It would be great for Seth to get a (championship) ring, but we can't root for one son over the other," 54-year-old Dell Curry said. "We're just going to let it play out and have fun watching them both play." Dell said it's been fun, and exhausting. The Currys have been jetting around the country for the last month on commercial

flights, back and forth between Oakland, Portland, Los Angeles, Denver and Houston to see their sons play. They've attended 21 of their sons' combined 24 playoff games, only missing two Blazers' firstround games in Oklahoma City and one second-round game in Denver. Sometimes, they wake up in a hotel unsure of what city they're in. "Everybody says to us, 'you guys have to be tired,'" Dell said. "I'm like, well, we'll probably sleep for a week when it's over."

Ewing, Burchett Lead Trenton At District Meet A year ago, Trenton sprinter Brian Ewing just missed going to state. This year, he heads to sectionals as a frontrunner in three events. Ewing won the 100-, 200- and 400-meter dashes on Saturday at the Class 3, District 8 track meet, setting himself up to break through at sectionals and punch his ticket to Jefferson City. Ewing won the 100 with a time of 11.36, the 200 with a time of 22.96 and the 400 with a time of 51.58. For good measure, he also advanced in the long jump, where he was fourth with a leap of 19-9. â€œIt was expected by me,â€? Trenton boys Coach Lysander Overstreet said. â€œI knew the hard work he had put in this season which has helped him shine like he is supposed to. I expect him to do the same again this Saturday. The competition is a little bit better pooling both districts together, but I think he will have a good day.â€? Ewing wasnâ€™t Trentonâ€™s only gold medalist either. Carson Burchett placed first in the shot put with a throw of 49-0. He achieved the distance on his last throw of the meet. â€œCarson has had his ups and downs throughout the season and he kind of pulled it together,â€? Overstreet said. â€œIt was a clutch throw and I think it gives him confidence going into sectionals this weekend. I think he has a great shot, if he continues to work this week and we will work this week, to make it to state this year.â€? Also qualifying for sectionals for the Bulldogs were hurdlers Matt Sibbit and Camdyn Leeper. Sibbit was third in the 110meter hurdles with a time of 17.07 and Leeper was right behind him, placing fourth with a time of 17.54. Hayden Griffin also advanced for the Bulldogs, placing third in the 200-meter dash with a time of 23.96. Other placewinners for Trenton at districts, who didnâ€™t advance to sectionals, included Leeper, sixth in the 300-meter hurdles with a time of 45.28, and Hunter Trask, who was sixth in the shot put with a throw of 43-0 and sixth in the discus with a throw of 126-7. In the team standings, Trenton collected 74 points, good for a sixth-place showing in the 12-team field. Maryville won the boys title with 133 points while Lawson (118) and Hogan Prep (107) rounded out the top three. Richmond was fourth with 87 points and Chillicothe placed fifth with 86.5. Sectionals will be held this Saturday in Excelsior Springs. The top four in each event at that meet will advance to state the following weekend at Pete Adkins Stadium in Jeffersonâ€ˆCity.

Not one, not two, not three defenders could stop Maci Moore, who scored a career-high 30 points on Saturday in Trentonâ€™s 57-18 victory over St. Joseph Lafayette. Moore also had nine rebounds in the win.

Moore Hammers Lafayette, Leads Trenton With 30-Point Night Maci Moore has scored a lot of points for having a high school career that has bridged just a year and a half. On Saturday, Dec. 22 at North Central Missouri Collegeâ€™s Holiday Hoops, Moore established a new high-water mark for her career, pouring in 30 points as the Trenton High School girls basketball team throttled St. Joseph Lafayette 57-18. Moore dropped in the first two points of the game and drew a foul, going to the line to complete a three-point play just seven seconds into the contest. That would be the theme all night as Lafayette struggled to find an answer for the sophomore forward. â€œI was just working to get open, get in front of (Lafayette) and put it up â€?

about a lot because we have so many different weapons that can score on a given night,â€? Trenton Head Coach Brian Upton said. â€œWe work a lot in practice on defense, though and the intensity that we come out with. I didnâ€™t have a real good scouting report on Lafayette, but we just came out knowing that we needed to talk on picks and the girls had the right intensity, the right energy level. You couple that with some very athletic girls that have a good basketball IQ and the next thing you know, you are shooting passing lanes and getting tips. I thought we were just very active on defense and thatâ€™s what good teams do. Even teams that score a whole bunch of points, if they are going to have a successful season it all starts on the defen

said. â€œTonight we were just trying to spread the floor and get to the basket. (Lafayette) plays a lot of sagging man and it almost resembles a zone because everyone is in the lane. So we were going to try to draw the defense out and dump it to Maci or Sidney (Lynch) or whoever happened to be down there. Maci was the answer. I think they even lost her a couple of times, she was so wide open. She is a great finisher around the basket, she is a great kid and she is a great teammate. She is very coachable. When you have a player who has a great work ethic and you combine that with someone who has gifted hands, gifted feet and great touch around the basket, it makes for a great player.â€?

tougher go than the girls, falling 38-34 to Green City earlier in the day. The Bulldog defense continued to be one of the strongest parts of Trentonâ€™s game, but Green Cityâ€™s Devin Field did just enough to put the Gophers on his back and carry them past Trenton. Fields scored 20 of Green Cityâ€™s 38 points and Trentonâ€™s offense sputtered once again leaving the Bulldogs with a four-point loss. â€œWe played great defense and rebounded well,â€? Trenton Head Coach Jeremy Austin said. â€œWe just couldnâ€™t score. It was a tough loss and we have to bounce back. Iâ€ˆam very confident thatâ€™s exactly what we will do.â€? Trenton was led by Max McNabb, who had 10 points and three steals Carson Rad

same distance from zero, positive or negative. So, with this idea in mind, if we made the day we were born represent zero, then our age today represents our personal absolute value. In math, value simply means how big a number is, but in a personâ€™s life, value represents so much more. Itâ€™s the memories you have made, the people you have helped and the ideas we hold closest to our heart. At the end of our lives, whatever age we are then, that is our total absolute value. We canâ€™t decide what that number is, but we can decide what we do with it.â€? She reminded the class that every day they are writing the story of their lives and graduation is closing the first story in the series of their lives. â€œLast week I took off my blue corduroy FFA jacket for the last time, maybe you shot your last basket or played your last baseball game. These things have been a major part of our story for a long time, they are hard to give up, but the opportunities awaiting us are countless.â€? She encouraged the class to make everyone they meet feel valuable and thanked them for helping her realize her absolute value and preparing her for what lies ahead. â€œBecause I know my real value, I am equipped to write the story that I want to write and so can all of you. Class of 2019, this is what makes us who we are.â€?

ACROSS MISSOURI

Hawley Taking On PayTo-Win Apps KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — Missouri U.S. Sen. Josh Hawley is taking on the tech industry, including apps and tools aimed at children. Hawley last week introduced legislation that would ban "pay-to-win" apps like Candy Crush that he said are targeted at children. The Kansas City Star reports the games are often free, but users can buy upgrades and bonus features. "When a game is designed for kids, game developers shouldn't be allowed to monetize addiction," Hawley said in a statement announcing the bill. "And when kids play games designed for adults, they should be walled off from compulsive microtransactions. Game developers who knowingly exploit children should face legal consequences." The bill is one in a series of moves the freshman Republican has made against the tech industry. In a recent speech to Stanford University's Hoover Institution he questioned the value of social media and slammed the industry for profiting off the addiction of its users. And in other action last week, Hawley and Sen. Richard Blumenthal, D-Connecticut, sent a letter to the Federal Trade Commission calling on the agency to conclude its investigation into Facebook's alleged violation of a 2011 consent agreement by improperly sharing data of 80 million users and to impose deterrent penalties. Hawley had previously introduced a bill to restrict internet companies from collecting data from users under the age of 13. Josh Golin, the executive director of the Campaign for Commercial-Free Childhood, applauded Hawley. "It is beyond unfair for developers to rig their games to manipulate children into making purchases themselves or nagging their parents to do so. Games that require additional payments to advance take advantage of children's natural inclination to master new skills and compete," Golin said in a statement. Candy Crush, a popular puzzle game that Hawley's office said has "a Candy Land style cartoon aesthetic," is a key target of the bill. The app enables users to pay $149.99 for 24 hours of unlimited lives and other bonus features. Activision, which distributes Candy Crush, declined to comment and deferred questions to the Entertainment Software Association, a video game industry trade group. Stanley Pierre-Louis, acting president and CEO of the association, said in an email that apps already come with features meant to prevent kids from making purchases without parental consent. Carl Szabo, vice president and general counsel of NetChoice, a group which represents the tech industry, called Hawley's bill well-intentioned but overly broad. He said most of the games like Candy Crush are aimed at adults, and parents should be the ones to choose what games are appropriate for their children

HIGHLIGHTS WITH HEGEMAN 12th District State Sen. Dan Hegeman Room 332, State Capitol Jefferson City, MO 65101 Phone: 573-751-1415 dan.hegeman@senate.mo.gov

SUPPORTING TORT REFORM IN MISSOURI In the last few weeks, the Missouri General Assembly has made significant progress on several tort reform bills. I believe this area of legislation is very important to the economic health of our state. By facilitating an envi-

ronment conducive to business activity, we can increase wages and attract new jobs, thereby benefiting Missourians of all backgrounds. The Legislature has given its final approval to Senate Bill 30,

which will soon be sent to the governor for his consideration. This bill, which I sponsored and have written about before, allows a plaintiff’s failure to wear a seat belt to be admissible as evidence of comparative negligence in a product liability lawsuit involving an automobile. This serves the dual purpose of both creating fairer court procedures, in which a jury is able to come to a broader understanding of the causes of a plaintiff’s injuries, and encouraging general seat belt safety. The Legislature has also

given its final approval to Senate Bill 7, which alters and clarifies rules of joinder and venue for civil lawsuits filed in Missouri courts. I’ve written about this bill before, as well. Simply put, this legislation is designed to limit “forum shopping,” the practice by which plaintiffs, often from out of state, try to have their cases heard in the most sympathetic court. Lastly, the Senate has given preliminary approval to Senate Bill 224, which modifies Missouri Supreme Court rules relating to discovery. This bill brings our

state rules of civil procedure closer to those used in federal courts, streamlining the discovery process by disallowing endless interrogatories and depositions. I believe this would create a more equitable judicial system. As always, please feel free to call, email or write with your ideas or concerns. My capitol office number is 573-751-1415, my email address is dan.hegeman@senate.mo.gov and my mailing address is Room 332, State Capitol Building, Jefferson City, MO 65101.

Fulton Celebrates Speech Anniversary COLUMBIA, Mo. (AP) — When Steve Stinson started giving tours of the National Churchill Museum in Fulton, he thought it looked more like a consignment store. "My father, who was in charge of a lot of things here, had one policy — never turn down anything," Stinson told the Columbia Missourian recently while giving a tour during the 50th anniversary celebration of the museum. As a result of that self-imposed policy, the museum was bombarded with donations of historical items that often had more to do with England in general than Churchill himself. Eventually, the items were sorted and either displayed or stored, and the museum doors officially opened in May 1969. Stinson was one of the original three tour guides for the museum during the 1960s, and he traveled from his current home in Virginia to give another tour in honor of the 50th anniversary. The museum was first dedicated in honor of the famous "Iron Curtain" speech Churchill gave at Westminster College in Fulton, where the museum is housed in the basement of a church originally built in the 11th century in

London, England. The church burned down in the Great Fire of London in 1666 and was redesigned by architect Christopher Wren. During World War II, the church was struck by an incendiary bomb and was later set to be demolished. In 1961, Stinson's father was on the committee charged with trying to bring the church to Fulton and was tasked with raising the $2 million needed to get it there. While trying to raise money in New York, Stinson's father was approached by a recruiter for the game show "Password." His partner on that show ended up being actor Douglas Fairbanks Jr., who helped turn the project around. "They performed really badly," Stinson said through a chuckle. "After the show, my father and Fairbanks went on a pub crawl, which my father was very good at, and they became friends." Fairbanks was an "enthusiastic supporter" and helped open doors for the project in London, New York and Hollywood. Thanks to that unlikely friendship, the church went up during Stinson's time as a tour guide in the 1960s, he said.

The church's English Baroque architecture greets those driving through Fulton. To the side of the church, a sculpture made out of slabs of the Berlin Wall, created by Churchill's granddaughter, can be admired by guests. Inside the museum, the walls are lined with artwork, interactive pieces and signs that tell the story of Churchill's life. Juliann Budde drove over five hours from the Chicago area for the museum's anniversary to see the history inside. Budde became interested in Churchill when she was researching English history for her trip to the United Kingdom last year. "I fell in love with the complexities of Winston Churchill," Budde said. "He demanded self-confidence and strength. It's inspiring." She decided to make her first trip down after seeing a Facebook post from the museum about the anniversary. While it wasn't Barbara Lamon's first visit to the museum, she got the chance to experience it again with her husband,

who recently saw it for the first time. Lamon and her husband drove from Jefferson City to walk through the museum and take a quick tour. "It's exciting to be able to see a part of history," Lamon said. Eli, Liam and Maisy Henness followed their mother Kerri Henness around the museum, taking in the story of a man they've been learning about. Henness homeschools her children and they've recently been learning about the Cold War. "It helps them put the pieces together," Henness said. "It's nice to get to walk through the timeline." Jim Wallace, who grew up in Fulton, enjoyed getting a peek into Churchill's life. "He wasn't the brightest guy in a deck of cards," Wallace said, referencing the panel up at the entrance that talks about Churchill's bad grades. "But he was a fighter." Wallace said it's nice to see something so important attached to Westminster College, a smaller school. "We're not a big town," Wallace said. "It's nice that all of this came about because of one visit."

Rotary Hears About Arts Efforts to revitalize the arts n the area was the topic of a program presented during last Thursday’s meeting of the Trenton Rotary Club. Dr. Lenny Klaver was the program chairman. Phil Schlarb, who has been leading the effort, addressed the club about plans under way to form an organization similar to the Grundy County Friends of the Arts, which would coordinate arts-related offerings to area residents. With the recent approval by voters in the Trenton R-9 School District to build a performing arts center as part of an overall building project, Schlarb said interest in such a venture has grown to the point that two planning meetings have been held. A committee is currently reviewing possible names for the organization while a second committee is putting together proposed bylaws that would eventually lead to incorporating a not-forprofit organization that would be in charge of the arts effort. Another meeting is being planned for 7 p.m. on Thursday, May 30 in the Cross Hall Coffee Shop on the North Central Missouri College campus to continue the planning efforts and interested members of the community are encouraged to attend. Nathan Vandevender, who works in the IT Department at NCMC, also spoke about the Foreign Film Club, which was organized by NCMC instructor Eric Christopherson and himself. The club recently held a showing of the Japanese movie, “In the Mood For Love,” which he said was very well received, with 18 persons in attendance. Plans are to show foreign films during the school year that would also be open to the public. Dr. Klaver also spoke about other efforts at NCMC to promote arts, which is among the initiatives being addressed by the college and board of trustees as a way to draw more students and members of the community to the campus. The Rotary Club will meet again on Thursday, May 16, with Mayor Linda Crooks as the speaker.

The 101st Spickard Alumni Banquet was held on Saturday, May 11 in the Spickard School Gym with 91 registered guests. The Class of 1968 hosted the event. Bruce Lenhardt served as emcee, welcoming everyone and leading the pledge to the U.S. flag. He recognized the class of 1968 for organizing the event, including Cheryl Howe Ranes, Kay Tharp Crawford and her husband, Larry and Jorry Browning and his wife, May. Others who helped were Marian Wood

Dear Annie: I've been working as professional for more than 10 years, and I'm arriving at the point in my career where I'm now responsible for spending more time meeting with clients. I'm excited for my continued growth and success, and I'm always seeking ways to grow. I have a handful of mentors who teach me, and I frequently read about management philosophy and practices. I believe that I'm helping myself through these activities. One of my mentors always encourages me to optimize my confidence. She believes one of the keys to becoming confident is to dress for success. She recommends to never dress casually and always wear clothes that look good and fit perfectly. This will ensure that first impressions of me are always high. Then it's up to me to be confident in my knowledge and ability to deliver that knowledge. My question for you is how to find a wardrobe that is powerful yet affordable. My mentor is not on the same budget as am I, and I can't shop where she does. Are there alternatives for me? -- Stylish on a Budget Dear Stylish: Your mentor sounds like she has a lot good

advice on offer. It is important to be dressed appropriately in a professional environment, and you can never go wrong by being overdressed. Thrift stores could be a great option. And going high-tech is an option, too. Technological disruption continues to change our lives, and within fashion that is also true. Several online companies, such as Sumissura, use technology to tailor clothing for your shape. You may choose your fabric, which allows you to work within your budget. If you prefer to be fit in person, there are several reputable tailors from Hong Kong, such as Raja Fashions, that travel to various U.S. cities and fit people in hotel rooms. They will build the suit for you in Hong Kong and send to your home. You may select fabric that works for your budget. Custom-made clothes can make you look good and feel confident while sticking to your budget. Dear Annie: I travel frequently and am becoming increasingly annoyed by pets in the airport and on planes. I appreciate true service animals for people with disabilities and understand that is necessary. However, I'm talking about the entitled people who decide they

need (really, want) their pets to travel with them. On one of my most recent travels, a fully capable lady let her dog poop in the middle of the terminal. She proceeded to say "oh, no!" and then moved on without cleaning up after her animal. Then, on my flight, a passenger had his dog sleeping on his chest. When he was standing to use the restroom, he placed his dog in the aisle, where she promptly peed. He tried not to do anything, except the lady next to him alerted the flight attendants. I ask you to publish my plea so that others can read this: If you travel with you pet, please have the decency to respect your fellow passengers and at least clean up after them. -Seeking Decorum Dear Decorum: The skies have gone to the dogs. People who are not in significant need are taking advantage of the service dog loophole to travel with their four-legged friends. I appreciate your concerns about some of these animals misbehaving and the owners lack of sensitivity in managing these issues. Regardless of on the ground or in the skies, we should all respect our neighbors and clean up after our pets. I hope the abuse of privilege doesn't lead to truly disabled people having a more difficult time traveling with their service animals.

Shareholder crowds Berkshire Hathaway’s annual meeting is easily the largest with more than 40,000 shareholders attending. At the conglomerate’s meeting last weekend, the crowd filled an arena and several overflow rooms to hear revered investors Warren Buffett and Charlie Munger answering questions. Attendees want to learn from the two successful investors. But they also come to Omaha, Nebraska, to attend investment conferences and see friends at other events, said Whitney Tilson, who just attended his 22nd consecutive meeting. Walmart hosts the secondlargest meeting but it began with six shareholders in a coffee

shop near the company’s warehouse after it went public in 1970. It grew into a picnic hosted by founder Sam Walton, Walmart spokeswoman Tara Aston said. One of the only other annual meetings that comes close is the Green Bay Packers. The team holds a shareholders meeting because they are the NFL’s only publicly-owned team. Roughly 7,000 fans show up for the event. Ted Allen with the National Investor Relations Institute says most shareholder meetings in the United States don’t attract much of an audience, aside from a few individual investors, employees, and retirees who hold company stock.

Gathering groups: Most shareholder meetings are small; these are the four largest groups who regularly gather. Warren Buffett’s is by far the most popular. Attendees at the biggest U.S. shareholder meetings Berkshire Hathaway
