Area's problems stem from various circumstances Rep. Jeannie McDaniel recalls asking the manager of St. Thomas Square how she came up with a new name for the apartment complex. Police and others had taken to calling the complex at 61st and Peoria "Gun Gardens," a twist on its former name of Sun Gardens, due to the shootings there. The name changed in 1996; the problems remained. The manager told her she'd always wanted to visit St. Thomas in the U.S. Virgin Islands. McDaniel — who headed the mayor's Office of Neighborhoods at the time — still cringes at the irony. "The sad thing is where you have that density of people who don't have much hope, you have some people making bad choices," said McDaniel, D-Tulsa. In addition, out-of-state property owners "don't have to see what is happening. … They just want the money coming in," she said. Four women were shot to death Monday at the Fairmont Terrace apartments, among four "projectbased" complexes that receive Section 8 federal housing subsidies. The slayings shocked a community some say has grown accustomed to a certain level of violence there. The Tulsa World polled community leaders, policy makers and others for their thoughts on what led to the crime and social ills in the area and how to ensure residents' safety. > Read what they had to say, A9. — ZIVA BRANSTETTER, World Enterprise Editor
he neighborhood encompassing 61st Street and Peoria Avenue needed a name, an identity — something other than the "south Tulsa ghetto" or the "South Peoria pocket slum." After all, there are nice homes here, too, and hard-working people who wait in the rain for bus rides to work, walk their kids to school and go to church on Sundays to ask the Lord for a little help. A Riverwood neighborhood sign lies on a section of 61st Street More than a decade ago, they under construction at Madison Avenue near Fairmont Terrace apartments in Tulsa. renamed it Riverwood. They designed new signs, defined the boundaries, had neighborhood meetings, made plans for a community center, fought for progress, improvements and carried a sense of pride. But crime and a downward economic spiral fought back against their hard-won progress. The new name never really stuck. In the wake of a brutal quadruple homicide that took the lives of four women in publicly financed apartments, locals are wondering: What happened to Riverwood, and how can we get it back?

BTW team set for Normandy trip
• The pair is one of 15 student-teacher teams chosen.
World Staff Writer
High school history class doesn't lead many students or teachers to the monuments of Washington, D.C., or the beaches of Normandy. But for one lucky sophomore and his teacher at Booker T. Washington High School, that dream scenario is about to come true. Seamus Ryan-Johnson and history teacher Janet Thomas were selected as one of 15 student-teacher teams from applicants from all over the United States and U.S. Department of Defense schools all over the globe for National History Day's Albert H. Small Student and Teacher Summer Institute, "Normandy: Sacrifice for Freedom." "I've always been interested in history," said RyanJohnson. "My grandfather was a little too young to fight in World War II, but he served, and my maternal great-grandfather received the Purple Heart in World War I." The duo have lots of preparing to do for their summer studies. In addition to

Bald Eagle Days reading eight books, they will be researching an American service member from Oklahoma who fought and died at Normandy as part of the Fallen Soldier Project. The research will be used to create a permanent website to memorialize the soldier, as well as for RyanJohnson to eulogize his chosen subject during their trip to France. Come June, they will be off to Washington, D.C., to be immersed in lectures presented by leading World War II historians and to participate in a scholarly study of the war memorials in the area. Afterward, they will visit historic locations in and around Normandy and make presentations on the Normandy Campaign, and participate in a wreath-laying event at the Normandy American Cemetery.

Famed explorer and big-game hunter Martin Johnson died in a Los Angeles hospital a day after he and his wife, Osa, were injured in a plane crash in snow and fog near L.A. Johnson, 52, was the second passenger on the Western Air Express plane to die. Because of heavy snow, several hours passed before rescue workers could reach the plane. The Johnsons did their big-game hunting with a camera rather than a rifle and lectured about their experiences throughout the U.S. Osa Johnson, who had a brother in Tulsa, said she would continue the lecture tour.

Care Act — which is largely centered on solving problems of how people pay for medical treatment — the Oklahoma plan would take a more wholistic approach, potentially looking at ways to remodel how the health system operates and how people behave, Cline said. "There are several different tools that you can use to actually improve health," Cline said. "The question would be: How do you actually prioritize and strategically reach those objectives and goals?" The key to the plan would be a Medicaid waiver or waivers — permission from federal officials to use funding differently. Waivers are so common in state Medicaid programs that the common joke among health bureaucrats is: "When you've seen one state Medicaid system, you've seen one Medicaid system," but the Affordable Care Act comes with pages of new congressional mandates on how federal money will be used. Cline said the law doesn't rule out new ideas. "Some people are under the misconception that now, all of sudden, every state is going to look alike," Cline said. "That's not true." There is strong evidence that Oklahoma's most prominent Medicaid waiver — the Insure Oklahoma program — won't survive 2014's full implementation of the Affordable Care Act. Insure Oklahoma uses federal Medicaid funding, state tobacco tax revenue, contributions from small employers and their workers to fund private health insurance for low-income people, but federal officials have made it clear they don't intend to continue that sort of waiver once Affordable Care Act-mandated health insurance exchanges go into effect Jan. 1, 2014. A little more than 22,000 of the 30,700 Insure Oklahoma clients will be eligible for private insurance with heavy federal subsidies through an exchange, according to
Legislators file bills to nullify Obamacare Two Broken Arrow legislators have filed bills to nullify the provisions of the Affordable Care Act in Oklahoma. "Depriving citizens of the right to make their own choices about health care runs contrary to American ideals," said Sen. Nathan Dahm, R-Broken Arrow. "If we want a health-care system that is innovative, efficient, and controls costs, we need to allow the free market to work," he said.

Oklahoma Health Care Authority statistics. But about 155,000 people who are too poor to qualify for exchange participation will be left out of Affordable Care Act coverage because Gov. Mary Fallin rejected expanded Medicaid funding under the law, leading to speculation that Fallin might be looking for a way to redirect the Insure Oklahoma program to deal with some of the state's poorest citizens. But Cline said the Oklahoma Plan would take a different approach to health-care issues and break the singular concentration on paying for health care. Academic studies have shown that about 10 percent of overall health in the U.S. is determined by access to health care, Cline said. By contrast, 40 percent is attributable to behaviors. That brings issues such as smoking and obesity, which are prevalent in Oklahoma, into the equation. "I'm not downplaying that 10 percent. That needs to be there. It is critical," Cline said. "But when we're talking about putting billions of dollars into our state every single year … the question then becomes: Are we being
tortions and the incentive to improve the services it offers customers." Rep. Mike Ritze, R-Broken Arrow, said the federal health-care law is unwelcome in Oklahoma. "Oklahomans have clearly indicated that they would prefer a different approach to health care than the federal law offers," Ritze said. "I think we have the tools to improve the health-care system in Oklahoma without involvement from the federal government."
strategic with the utilization of those dollars as we should be? I say no." A recent state-by-state ranking of America's health puts Oklahoma 43rd in the nation in the wellness of its residents. The state ranked 49th in a similar survey in 2009. Last week, Fallin spoke at the National Press Club in Washington on behalf of the National Governors Association, and she used part of that presentation to emphasize the need for more flexibility in how states can use Medicaid funding. "We believe that the states have a great deal of potential to change the delivery of health care and Medicaid, and that our states are the vehicle for that coming change," Fallin said in her speech. She called on the Obama administration to look at Medicaid waiver requests with open minds and to act quickly on innovative ideas. While Fallin made an extended reference to the success of the Insure Oklahoma program in her speech, Cline said she wasn't pushing for a continuation of that model as much as she was advocating that the administration allow similar levels of flexibility in future programs. "States will continue to look different," Cline said. "What the governor's pushing for is to allow us to continue to have the flexibility to make informed decisions for our own population."

RFK children speak on assassination of uncle DALLAS (AP) — Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is convinced that a lone gunman wasn't solely responsible for the assassination of his uncle, President John F. Kennedy, and said his father believed the Warren Commission report was a "shoddy piece of craftsmanship." Kennedy and his sister, Rory, spoke about their family Friday
allegations of sexual misconduct during that time and held level hearings for each, according to the document. The alleged victims notified law enforcement before coming to Student Conduct in eight of the cases, according to the document. In the other two, Student Conduct personnel said they didn't know whether the complainants contacted the police. The names of all but two of the students who were found responsible for sexual misconduct are redacted from the document. The names made public are students who were charged with sex offenses in Payne County District Court, the record shows. The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act, or FERPA, permits universities to disclose final disciplinary outcomes to requestors, including the names of students the university has found responsible for violent crimes or nonforcible sex offenses. One student was found responsible for a violation on Nov. 15, 2010, and was suspended from OSU for one year. In 2011, Student Conduct found four students responsible, but the respective panels decided to suspend only two of them for one year each. In 2012, two students were found responsible for sexual misconduct, but only one of them, Nathan Cochran, 22, was suspended from the university. Cochran faces four charges of sexual battery in allegations involving three other men, but Stillwater Police Capt. Randy Dickerson has said some of the students
night while being interviewed in front of an audience by Charlie Rose at the Winspear Opera House in Dallas. The event comes as a year of observances begins for the 50th anniversary of the president's death. Their uncle was killed Nov. 22, 1963, while riding in a motorcade through Dallas. Five years later,
their father was assassinated in a Los Angeles hotel while celebrating his win in the California Democratic presidential primary. "The evidence at this point I think is very, very convincing that it was not a lone gunman," Robert F. Kennedy Jr. said, but he didn't say what he believed may have happened.
who have come to police are not the same as those who notified Student Conduct. On March 2, 2011, a student was found responsible for inappropriately touching another student over the student's clothes on the chest, thighs and groin, according to the document. The student's sanctions included a no-contact order, sexual-harassment training and conduct probation, which required that the student receive no OSU honors or awards and resign from student organization leadership positions. On April 18, 2011, Student Conduct held a hearing and found a student not responsible for a sexual misconduct violation. On April 22, 2011, Student Conduct found Christopher Boyd, 22, responsible for sexual misconduct after he admitted violating OSU's policy. He was suspended for one year. He had been charged on March 21, 2011, with rape by instrumentation, but the case was dismissed at the state's request on Nov. 17 of that year. Boyd is on a five-year probation after pleading guilty to aggravated assault against a woman on Dec. 9, 2011, and he spent 30 days in jail for the offense, court records show. He is not enrolled at OSU, according to the school's directory. On June 21, 2011, a student was found responsible for one instance of inappropriate touching. The panel sanctioned the student to a year of conduct probation, a no-contact order with the victim until graduation, a drug and alcohol assessment and sexual-harassment training, which included writing a reflection paper about the incident. On Oct. 4, 2011, a student was suspended for a year af-
ter being found responsible for inappropriately touching another student under the clothes on the student's buttock. The student was barred from living on campus for one year and put on conduct probation with a no-contact order. On April 27, 2012, Student Conduct found a student not responsible for sexual misconduct. On Nov. 30, Cochran was found responsible for sexual misconduct committed against four students. He was suspended for three years beginning Dec. 14 and immediately banned from contacting the complainants. He was arrested Dec. 12 on a warrant for three sexual battery charges after police began investigating allegations against him on Dec. 7, records show. On Dec. 7, a student was found not responsible for sexual misconduct. The alleged victim notified police and has appealed the hearing outcome, according to the document, which was last updated Dec. 21. The board's decision is not final, as the appeal process is not yet complete. The OSU/A&M Board of Regents' Policies and Procedures task force is reviewing OSU's handling of the sexual misconduct investigation in Cochran's case. OSU did not immediately provide Cochran's name to police, citing FERPA, a decision that remains controversial. In emails obtained through an open records request last month, university officials expressed concern about OSU's image following the assault allegations against Cochran. Cochran will next appear in court at 10 a.m. Feb. 4. He remains free on $100,000 bond.

Another Bush may seek office • George P. is Jeb's son and George W.'s nephew.
OPTIONS George P. Bush: The attorney says he may run for Texas land commissioner.
BY WILL WEISSERT Associated Press
AUSTIN, Texas — George Prescott Bush is gearing up to run for a little-known but powerful office in a state where his family already is a political dynasty and where his Hispanic roots could help extend a stranglehold on power Republicans have enjoyed for two decades. The 36-year-old Fort Worth attorney says he is close to settling on campaigning for Texas land commissioner next year. He doesn't expect to make up his mind until he knows what Texas Gov. Rick Perry, a fellow Republican, decides to do. "We for sure are running, the question is the office," Bush told The Associated Press during the first interview about his political future since filing paperwork in November to seek elected
office in Texas. Bush's father is former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush, his grandfather is former President George H.W. Bush and his uncle is former President and Texas Gov. George W. Bush. Perry has been governor since George W. Bush left for the White House. Land commissioner traditionally has been a stepping stone to higher office, but Bush said little about any plans to eventually become a national political force. Instead, he spoke of how his experience as an asset manager would help him manage the Permanent Schools Fund, which pays for public education and is managed by the land commissioner. He also said his
perspective as an Afghanistan war veteran would help him use the post to become a leader in veterans' affairs. Bush said he would announce his final decision after the Texas Legislature adjourns in May but added that his choice will depend "where the governor's thinking is." Perry, who flamed out as a presidential candidate but remains popular in Texas, says he'll reveal this summer if he will seek another term. Some have speculated that Bush could challenge Perry for governor — and even if he doesn't, what Perry decides will trigger political dominos falling. Land Commissioner Jerry Patterson plans to run for lieutenant governor next year, creating a vacancy in his office. But Attorney General Greg Abbott, a Republican, may himself run for governor in 2014, meaning his post could be open too. Bush suggested he'd be willing to wait his turn politically rather than immediately seek top positions.
CHICAGO — Patients can refuse a flu shot. Should doctors and nurses have that right, too? That is the thorny question surfacing as U.S. hospitals increasingly crack down on employees who won't get flu shots, with some workers losing their jobs over their refusal. "Where does it say that I am no longer a patient if I'm a nurse," wondered Carrie Calhoun, a longtime critical care nurse in suburban Chicago who was fired last month after she refused a flu shot. Hospitals' get-tougher measures coincide with an earlier-than-usual flu season hitting harder than in recent mild seasons. Flu is widespread in most states, and at least 20 children have died. Most doctors and nurses do get flu shots. But in the past two months, at least 15 nurses and other hospital staffers in four states have been fired for refusing, and several others have resigned, according to affected workers, hospital authorities and published reports. In Rhode Island, one of three states with tough penalties behind a mandatory vaccine policy for health care workers, more than 1,000 workers recently signed a petition opposing the policy, according to a labor union that has filed suit to end the regulation. Why would people whose job is to protect sick patients refuse a flu shot? The reasons vary: allergies to flu vaccine, which are rare; religious objections; and skepticism about whether vaccinating health workers will prevent flu in patients. Dr. Carolyn Bridges, associate director for adult immunization at the federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, says the strongest evidence is from studies in nursing homes, linking flu

vaccination among health care workers with fewer patient deaths from all causes. "We would all like to see stronger data," she said. But other evidence shows flu vaccination "significantly decreases" flu cases, she said. "It should work the same in a health care worker versus somebody out in the community." Cancer nurse Joyce Gingerich is among the skeptics and says her decision to avoid the shot is mostly "a personal thing." She's among seven employees at IU Health Goshen Hospital in northern Indiana who were recently fired for refusing flu shots. Gingerich said she gets other vaccinations but thinks it should be a choice. She opposes "the injustice of being forced to put something in my body." Medical ethicist Art Caplan says health care workers' ethical obligation to protect patients trumps their individual rights. "If you don't want to do it, you shouldn't work in that environment," said Caplan, medical ethics chief at New York University's Langone Medical Center. "Patients should
demand that their health care provider gets flu shots — and they should ask them." For some, flu causes only mild symptoms. But it can also lead to pneumonia, and there are thousands of hospitalizations and deaths each year. The number of deaths has varied in recent decades from about 3,000 to 49,000. A survey by CDC researchers found that in 2011, more than 400 U.S. hospitals required flu vaccinations for their employees and 29 hospitals fired unvaccinated employees. At Calhoun's hospital, Alexian Brothers Medical Center in Elk Grove Village, Ill., unvaccinated workers granted exemptions must wear masks and tell patients, "I'm wearing the mask for your safety," Calhoun says. She says that's discriminatory and may make patients want to avoid "the dirty nurse" with the mask. According to federal data, about 63 percent of U.S. health care workers had flu shots as of November, but the government wants 90 percent coverage of health care workers by 2020.

NEWS BRIEFS 5 Caracas, Venezuela
Opponents appeal delay of Chavez's inauguration Venezuela's opposition plans to present a case before a regional human rights court to challenge a Supreme Court decision that allowed the indefinite postponement of President Hugo Chavez's inauguration. The case is being prepared by a group of lawyers for the country's opposition coalition, said Gerardo Blyde, a lawyer and opposition politician. He told reporters on Saturday that it's not yet clear when the case will be brought before the Costa Rica-based Inter-American Court of Human Rights. Despite opposition claims that the constitution requires the inauguration to be held on Jan. 10, the pro-Chavez congress approved delaying the swearingin and the Supreme Court endorsed the postponement. The government says the 58-year-old president is fighting a severe respiratory infection in a Cuban hospital following his fourth cancer surgery. The opposition has demanded more information about Chavez's condition, and some have called for a medical team to be formed to determine whether he is fit to remain in office.
6 Bilbao, Spain
Basque sympathizers march for ETA amnesty Tens of thousands of Basque separatist sympathizers marched in downtown Bilbao on Saturday calling for an amnesty that would allow ETA prisoners to serve out the remainder of their sentences in the northern Spanish region rather than in jails further afield. Protesters marched to the city's town hall behind banners saying "Human rights, resolution, peace. Basque prisoners back home." Some protesters waved Catalan flags in solidarity with another northern Spanish region with an important separatist movement. One large banner included a slogan in English, saying "Repatriate all Basque prisoners." There are an estimated 700 ETA prisoners held in jails dotted around Spain and France.

Baby born aboard plane named for crew member A passenger has given birth
aboard a plane flying to Armenia and named her daughter after one of the flight attendants who helped with the delivery. The birth of the healthy baby occurred Saturday, two hours before the Armavia airline flight landed in Yerevan, Armenia's capital, after a long flight from Siberia. Flight attendant Asmik Gevondyan said she noticed that 31-year-old passenger Armina Babayan appeared to be in labor and organized the delivery. "All of our crew helped to deliver the baby," Gevondyan told The Associated Press. Babayan, who had claimed to be 6½ months pregnant during checkin, named her first child Asmik, local television reported.

Foreign minister, former premier face runoff A former leftist prime minister and the Czech Republic's conservative foreign minister will face each other in a presidential runoff later this month after finishing Saturday as the top two candidates in the ballot's first round. Ex-Premier Milos Zeman and Foreign Minister Karel Schwarzenberg will compete in the second round of voting for the largely ceremonial post on Jan. 25-26. Czechs are electing the country's president in a direct popular vote for the first time, to replace President Vaclav Klaus, whose second and final term ends March 7. With the votes from all of the 15,000 polling stations counted on Saturday, Zeman was leading with 24.21 percent of the vote, followed by Schwarzenberg with 23.40 percent.

Russian volcano creates rare lava lake A volcano erupting in Russia's Far East is sending plumes of gas and ash high into the sky and creating a lava lake. The Plosky Tolbachik volcano is located in Kamchatka peninsula, hundreds of miles from the nearest residential areas. Gennady Karpov, a volcano expert at Russia's Academy of Sciences in the Far East, said Friday: "There were no lava lakes at Kamchatka volcanos before now. We have never seen this before." Plosky Tolbachik's last eruption had occurred in November after the volcano was dormant for almost 40 years. —FROM WIRE REPORTS

2 Mogadishu, Somalia
French commando dies in rescue bid A raid to free a French intelligence agent held captive in Somalia for three years went horribly wrong, leaving 17 Islamists and at least one French commando dead in a farming town deep in militant territory. In the chaotic aftermath of the firefight, the hostage's fate was unclear Saturday. The Islamists denied French claims that he was killed and said they had a new prisoner — a wounded French soldier. The rescue attempt in East Africa came the same day French airstrikes in the West African nation of Mali targeted resurgent rebel Islamists. French officials said the two operations were unrelated, but stepped up domestic counter-terror measures to protect public places and transportation networks. Confusion surrounded early reports of the failed rescue of the French agent, known by his code-name Denis Allex. He was captured in Somalia on July 14, 2009 — Bastille Day — and last seen in a video released in October pleading for the French president to help.

Kayetie Powell Melchor
Misty Nunley
Julie Jackson
Four women — Rebeika Powell, 23; Kayetie Powell Melchor, 23; Misty Nunley, 33; and Julie Jackson, 55 — were found shot to death in the Fairmont Terrace apartments at midday Monday. Rebeika Powell's 3-year-old son was found at the scene, uninjured. Police are still searching for the killer or killers. They have questioned several people but made no arrests, asking for the community's help and patience as they do the difficult work. Fairmont Terrace has been the scene of eight killings in the past two years, including the four Monday. Killings have decreased citywide since 2009, but the homicide rate in the area of 61st and Peoria has remained steady and sometimes increased, as it did in 2011, a Tulsa World analysis shows. Those who've lived there long enough remember it as once placid and peaceful, with crime increasing after the oil bust hit local real estate hard in the 1980s. There were crime waves in the mid90s, early 2000s and now since 2011. Homicides and violent assaults became the headlines that got the neighborhood noticed. Much of the violent crime in Riverwood (the area between 51st and 71st streets and Riverside Drive and Lewis Avenue) has occurred within a handful of complexes using tax dollars to offer affordable housing options to low-income individuals. Many of the complexes are owned by limited liability companies formed by out-ofstate investors. The companies take a "hands-off" approach to management and aren't bothered by the crime as long as the checks keep coming, say longtime residents of the area. Records show Fairmont Terrace is owned by two California-based limited liability companies: D.K. Ukiah Properties LLC and 1574 Pacific LLC. Community activists and neighbors say recent efforts to communicate with Fairmont Terrace's owners about safety concerns have been unsuccessful. Records list Constance Reynolds of Alameda, Calif., as the sole member and manager of 1574 Pacific LLC, while Doug Solis of Mendocino County, Calif., is listed as managing member of DK Ukiah Properties LLC. HUD did not respond to a World request for information about its policies and inspections of Fairmont Terrace.

opments owned by private companies. Funds are paid directly to the owner by HUD and cannot be used by the tenant elsewhere. The remaining properties on the list are privately owned and accept Section 8 vouchers from tenants who qualify and have made it to the top of the program's waiting list. If a tenant leaves the complex, the voucher travels with him or her to the new residence. The first of these properties in Riverwood was built in 1965 and the last was built in 1985, as oil prices were plummeting. Employers fled, and so did residents who could afford to move elsewhere. Those left behind often lived in fear, as crime rates spiked. Killings, robberies, drug deals, vandalism and other crimes became increasingly common at some of the complexes. Lucky Lamons came to Tulsa from Lawton in 1981 to attend the Tulsa police academy and moved into what was then the Sun Gardens Apartments. Police cars soon began to frequent his complex. Some of the officers were his classmates at the academy, but they didn't live at Sun Gardens — they were responding to an increasing number of crimes there,
Lamons said. At the time, the complex was unsubsidized, and residents paid market rates for rent. The federal "Section 8" voucher program did not yet exist. But the oil bust in Oklahoma led to vacant store fronts and soon vacant apartments, including Lamons' former apartment. He moved out and into a single-family home in a different neighborhood by December 1982. "I got out then because I saw the area deteriorating," he said. As building owners used housing assistance programs to fill vacant apartments, residents say, the neighborhood changed. Two people were killed in 1994 at Sun Gardens, sparking meetings between the tenant association and property management about the violence and dilapidated conditions. By 1996, problems continued at the complex but the name had changed to St. Thomas Square. Names of apartment complexes in the area change frequently as owners try to escape the stigma of past violence, officials say. In the late 1990s, the city came up with a unique idea to purchase and tear down the dilapidated, crime-rid-

'Face of poverty'
Henry Mitchell: "People call and ask me if I'm OK out here."
Lanny Endicott has lived in the Heller Park area of Riverwood since the 1970s. For nearly two decades, he has made revitalizing it and helping residents his mission, through the South Peoria Neighborhood Connection and its South Tulsa Community House. As director of the social work program at Oral Roberts University — its campus is less than a block away from Riverwood's southeast boundary — he sends students into the publicly financed housing complexes to survey residents about their needs. "The face of poverty here is a single woman with a couple of kids," he said. Frequently, there are boyfriends who come and go among the various complexes, many involved in drug crime, he said. The South Tulsa Community House offers GED classes, counseling, a food pantry and computers that residents can use for job applications or schoolwork. It sits next to the towering fences of Fairmont Terrace. Volunteers there hear the sirens responding to meth fires (one of the buildings burned down last year) and domestic disturbances at the complex. On the worst days,
dled Village Square apartments, adjacent to St. Thomas Square. The city would use federal Community Development Block Grant funds and a local contractor built affordable homes. The homes were purchased by buyers without housing assistance via conventional financing. The hope was the homes would breathe new life and stability into the neighborhood. Henry Mitchell was the first buyer, and 15 years later, he lives in the same home on Madison Place. For a while, things had been quiet in his neighborhood, he said, but recently, the crime has started back up again. "You see 61st and Peoria all the time on the news," he said. "People call and ask me if I'm OK out here. People say a lot of bad stuff about the neighborhood, but it's not coming from the people who live here."
'Area deteriorating' A Tulsa World investigation has found that 17 multifamily properties accepting Section 8 rental subsidies exist in the area surrounding Fairmont Terrace, excluding small developments of a few units. Eight of those properties are owned by out-of-state interests. In terms of total individual Section 8 apartment units, out-of-state interests own about two-thirds of those available in the area. Four properties, including Fairmont Terrace, are "projConstruction workers wave traffic through the intersection at ect-based Section 8" devel- 61st Street and Peoria Avenue. JOHN CLANTON/Tulsa World
they hear gunshots. "One of my biggest frustrations is you can talk to the management, and they're good people, they work hard — but they get intimidated and beat up a lot," Endicott said. "And the piece that's missing is the owners." For many years, his organization and students developed a good working relationship with a management liaison at St. Thomas Square, he said. They set up a tenants' association and sponsored holiday parties. Then the complex's management changed. The liaison was fired, and all the programs they had set up were abandoned, Endicott said. Neighbors were once optimistic about the city's interest in a possible Johnson Park community center, he said. Then ideas started to surface from outside groups about a Little League baseball park or lacrosse fields. "It's a basketball and soccer neighborhood," he said. Officials lost interest, he said, and the project went nowhere. Johnson Park used to host annual activities, including a post-holiday Christmas-treeburning ceremony. The city used it as a parking lot for the PGA Championship in 2007 and as a dump for ice storm debris. It's currently littered with construction equipment and rubble as the city widens 61st Street. "It's 30 acres, and it's just been sitting there," Endicott said. Steve Olsen is an architect who has lived in the Heller Park area since 1968. He drafted plans for the multipurpose community center at Johnson Park, something to bring resources, activities and a gathering place to an area that badly needs them, he said. Neighbors presented the idea to city officials with enthusiasm and hope. "We were trying to whet their appetite with it," he said. "I don't know what the hang-up was —probably that we didn't have any funding." A community center with recreation, education, medical and counseling services at Johnson Park would be "a big deal" for Riverwood, Olsen said. "This would be something the whole community could use," he said. "We keep trying things, and one of these times it will hit, I guess."
'Money keeps running out' Cheryl Davison and her husband, Dale, got involved in the South Tulsa Community House after they realized the food pantry at their church, Christ the Redeemer Lutheran, might serve the community better if it were closer to the heavily traveled bus routes on Peoria. So they put their efforts into the food pantry and the community house, and became involved on the board. They don't live in Riverwood, but their church sits on the edge of it, and they care about what happens in that community. "It's something that people have talked about for years — but nothing's happened," she said. "The money keeps running out." Residents of St. Thomas Square and Fairmont Terrace frequently walk to the Warehouse Market southeast of the complexes and push the groceries home in shopping carts across rush-hour traffic on Peoria Avenue. Families walk their children to school at McClure and Marshall elementary schools. Safety in that neighborhood should concern all Tulsans, Davison said. "After what happened on Monday, people are going to say, 'Hey, we can't ignore what's going on at 61st and Peoria any longer,'" she said. News researcher Hilary Pittman contributed to this story.

Section 8 availability
World Staff Writer
When it comes to Section 8 housing, there are two distinct programs — project-based Section 8 and the Housing Choice Voucher Program. Both are funded by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development. Yet they differ on how the subsidies are distributed and where a tenant can live. The term "Section 8" refers to a portion of the Housing Act of 1937 authorizing the payment of rental housing assistance to private landlords on behalf of low-income households. Through project-based Section 8 housing, owners of a housing complex — either privately owned and operated or owned and operated by a public housing authority — receive subsidies directly from HUD. The Tulsa Housing Authority owns and operates four project-based Section 8
The Tulsa Housing Authority checks its tenants for violent criminal or drug-related activity within the last three years and checks for a pattern of criminal behavior. Additionally, it denies assistance to anyone on the lifetime sex offender registry. Privately owned properties are expected by HUD to conduct background checks because anyone on the lifetime sex offender registry is prohibited. Additional checks are up to the owner to determine.

D.C. REPORT Former Inhofe staffers axed by panel successor
Inhofe in the Far East, including Myanmar
About a dozen of U.S. Sen. Jim Inhofe's former staffers for the Senate Environment and Public Works Committee have been fired by his successor as ranking member, according to the National Journal and other sources. Inhofe gave up his spot as the top Republican on the committee for the same spot on the Armed Services Committee. Although Inhofe remains on EPW, Louisiana's David Vitter now controls the Republican committee staff. The National Review, quoting an unnamed source, said Vitter and Inhofe have not gotten along since Vitter was involved in a prostitution scandal a number of years ago. Vitter denied the claim. Meanwhile, Inhofe hired a former EPW staffer, Alex Herrgott, to be his new legislative director. Herrgott worked for the committee Republicans for eight years before going to the U.S. Chamber of Commerce.
Inhofe has been in the Far East the past week with a congressional delegation. Among the places visited was Myanmar, also known as Burma. Until recently, Myanmar was ruled by one of the world's most repressive regimes, a military junta that largely isolated the country from the rest of the world. The country has begun to open up to the world. Myanmar is thought to be rich in natural resources, including oil and gas, and that seemed to be the focus of Inhofe's attention. "I told President (Thein) Sein that I believe U.S. companies, especially those in the oil and gas sectors, can play a positive role in demonstrating high standards of responsible business conduct and encourage free market policies, while at the same time protect human rights in this rich land," Inhofe said in a written statement.
Coburn names Brian Treat as chief of staff
U.S. Sen. Tom Coburn praised the Food and Drug Administration's draft guidance on non-abuse-deterrent prescription drugs. Coburn is concerned about the proposed authorization of generic extended-release opioids such as Oxycontin in forms that would more easily lend themselves to abuse. Coburn said he and Rep. Fred Upton, R-Mich., who had joined Coburn in objecting to such drugs, said they have been assured by FDA Commissioner Margaret Hamburg it will keep such drugs off the market. — RANDY KREHBIEL, World Staff Writer

Brian Treat has been named Sen. Tom Coburn's chief of staff, replacing Michael Schwartz. Schwartz, who suffers from amyotrophic lateral sclerosis — commonly known as Lou Gehrig's disease — resigned in December because of his health. Treat has been a legislative assistant and senior policy advisor to Coburn since the Muskogee Republican was elected to the Senate in 2004. He also worked for Coburn in the U.S. House of Representatives.
House to consider Sandy aid • Concerns about unrelated projects lead to a $17 billion proposal.
ROLL CALL BY TARGETED NEWS SERVICE WASHINGTON — Here is how Oklahoma's members of the House of Representatives voted on key bills and amendments last week. A "Y" means the member voted for the measure; an "N" means the member voted against the measure; a "?" means the member did not vote. There were no key votes in the Senate last week.
BY ANDREW MIGA Associated Press
WASHINGTON — Conservatives and watchdog groups are mounting a "notso-fast" campaign against a $50.7 billion superstorm Sandy aid package that Northeastern governors and lawmakers hope to push through the House this coming week. Their complaint is that lots of the money lawmakers are considering will actually go toward recovery efforts for past disasters and other projects unrelated to the late-October storm. A Senate-passed version from the end of the last Congress included $150 million for what the Commerce Department described as fisheries disasters in Alaska, Mississippi and the Northeast, and $50 million in subsidies for replanting trees on private land damaged by wildfires. The objections have led senior House Republicans to assemble their own $17 billion proposal, that when combined with already approved money for flood insurance claims is less than half what President Barack Obama sought and the Senate passed in December. That $17 billion package will be brought to the floor by the House Appropriations Committee, and North-

Sense, a budget watchdog group. Only South Carolina, Arizona and Michigan would not qualify, he said. "That's not a bad chunk of change, particularly if you are trying to get other lawmakers to vote for the bill," Ellis said. State and local governments like block grants because they provide more flexibility in how the money is spent. The money can go toward a variety of needs. The Northeast lawmakers' $33.7 billion amendment also includes more than $135 million to help the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration improve weather forecasting.
east lawmakers will have a chance to add $33.7 billion more. House Speaker John Boehner intends to let the House vote on both measures. He's responding both to conservatives who are opposed to more deficit spending and to Govs. Andrew Cuomo, D-N.Y., and Chris Christie, R-N.J., who are irate that the House hasn't acted sooner. Critics are taking the sharpest aim at $12.1 billion in the amendment for Department of Housing and Urban Development emergency block grants. Any state struck by a federally declared major disaster in 2011, 2012 or this year would qualify for the grants, and that's just about all the states, said Stephen Ellis, vice president of Taxpayers for Common
House has passed a bill (H.R. 41), sponsored by Rep. Scott Garrett, R-N.J., to temporarily increase the Federal Emergency Management Agency's borrowing authority for carrying out the National Flood Insurance Program from $20.725 billion to $30.425 billion. Garrett said the increase "is really vital to ensure that the homeowners in my state of New Jersey, as well as in New York and Connecticut and any other affected areas, will be able to continue to have their contractual flood insurance policies with the NFIP honored" after superstorm Sandy. The vote, on Jan. 4, was 354 yeas to 67 nays.

Obama's 2nd inauguration smaller, still grand WASHINGTON (AP) — President Barack Obama's second inauguration is shaping up as a high-energy celebration smaller than his first milestone swearing-in, yet still designed to mark his unprecedented role in American history with plenty of eyecatching glamour. A long list of celebrity performers will give the onceevery-four years rite of democratic passage the air of a star-studded concert, from the bunting-draped Capitol's west front, where Obama takes the oath Jan. 21, to the Washington Convention Center, which is expected to be packed with 40,000 ball-goers that evening. The first family will lead a parade of clanging bands, elaborate floats and marchers, including costumed dancers, prancing horses and military units, down Pennsylvania Avenue. The president will dance with the first lady, whose dress seems destined to be most anticipated fashion statement of the second Obama administration. A new element of the inaugural events will be announced next week, with the appointment of around half a dozen "citizen co-chairs," community leaders from across the country chosen because they represent the president's accomplishments and commitments. They will take part in inaugural events throughout the weekend. Estimates of turnout are 600,000 to 800,000, com-

pared with the 1.8 million in the record crowd on the National Mall four years ago to see the first swearing in of a black president. The mood of this 57th inauguration will be tempered by the weak economy, high unemployment, the aftermath of the Connecticut elementary school shooting and the long war in Afghanistan that's expected to require U.S. combat forces through the end of next year. Yet developments in the last week have shown that inaugural enthusiasm is high. A limited offering of $60 inaugural ball tickets for the general public sold out quickly, and inauguration planners have tried to crack down
on scalping business that's sprung up online. There's an impressive list of celebrities, including Beyonce, Katy Perry and Usher, who have signed on to perform. Steve Kerrigan, president and CEO of the Presidential Inaugural Committee, said that just because the festivities are going to be smaller doesn't mean they are going to be any less significant. "What we've been seeing from the very beginning is a passion and energy for this inaugural because people want to be a part of history," Kerrigan said. "This is a moment that's only happened 56 other times." Obama's speech gives him
a moment to command the world's attention on a level that's rare even for a president. If history is any guide, Obama will try to put behind the divisive election. He has the State of the Union three weeks later to make his points on taxes, guns, immigration and other issues. "Second inaugurals are often a kind of victory lap speech in a lot of ways, that would go back to Thomas Jefferson in 1805," said presidential historian Leo Ribuffo of George Washington University. "Presidents are often reflecting on accomplishments of the administration and the challenges that will continue into the second term." The 2009 inauguration will be remembered as a milestone for a nation built on slavery and blood-stained by the civil rights movement. But Obama clearly has that historical context in mind for his second go-round, as evidenced by the Bibles he chose to place his left hand on while taking the oath of office — one owned by Abraham Lincoln and one by Martin Luther King Jr. Their selection is especially symbolic because Obama's second inauguration comes on the federal holiday marking King's birthday and in a milestone anniversary year involving both men. It was 150 years ago when Lincoln signed the Emancipation Proclamation to end slavery, and 50 years ago when King delivered his "I Had a Dream" speech from the Lincoln Memorial.

Report: Warming changing daily U.S. life
SKYWATCH BY CHRIS PAGAN Sunday: The crescent moon
is low in the western sky this evening. The moon is 17 degrees above the southwestern horizon at 6:30 p.m. Ten degrees below the moon is Mars. Its red color allows it to be distinguished from other stars. Monday: After evening twilight a nice double star is visible in the constellation of Andromeda. The double star, known as Almach, reveals a brilliant contrast of color. Look for Andromeda, which appears as a skinny "V" high in the west at 7:30 p.m. Follow the line of stars down the left side of the constellation to the third bright star from the apex of the "V." This last star is Almach. A telescope will reveal a deepgolden star next to a blue star. Tuesday: Jupiter lies between two bright star clusters. The giant planet is closest to the Hyades star cluster, which forms the head of the bull in the constellation Taurus. The Hyades are 3½ degrees below Jupiter. The Pleiades are 7½ degrees to the upper right of Jupiter. Wednesday: In the eastern sky is a small constellation, Canis Minor, the little dog. It is below the constellation of Gemini and to the right of the constellation Cancer. The little dog is composed of two stars, the brighter of which is named Procyon and is 20 degrees above the horizon. This constellation, just a line between two stars, appears more like a hot dog. Thursday: By 7 a.m., Venus is 5 degrees above the southeastern horizon. Locating this planet in the morning sky used to be easy, but it has grown more difficult as Venus slowly moves closer to the sun. The brightness of Venus allows it to remain visible for the next few weeks, but soon it will disappear from the morning sky. Friday: An Iridium flare occurs in the morning sky — that's when the solar panels on a communications satellite reflect light back down to Earth. Iridium flares are visible only for a brief amount of time. At 6:43 a.m., one is visible in the north-northwest, a few degrees to the right of the Big Dipper. Make sure to look for it early. The first quarter moon occurs today at 5:46 p.m. Saturday: Tonight the moon is 10 degrees south of the constellation Aries the ram. The brightest star in the constellation is Hamal. From Hamal, move 4 degrees to the west, then 1½ degrees to the southwest to Mesarthim, or Gamma Arietis. Gamma Arietis is a double star only distinguishable as two stars when viewed through a telescope.
WASHINGTON (AP) — Global warming is already changing America from sea to rising sea and is affecting how Americans live, a new federally commissioned report says. A special panel of scientists convened by the government issued Friday a 1,146-page draft report that details in dozens of ways how climate change is already disrupting the health, homes and other facets of daily American life.
It warns that those disruptions will increase in the future. "Climate change affects everything that you do," said report co-author Susan Cutter, director of the Hazards and Vulnerability Research Institute at the University of South Carolina. "It affects where you live, where you work and where you play and the infrastructure that you need to do all these things. It's more than just the polar bears."
The blunt report takes a global environmental issue and explains what it means for different U.S. regions, for various sectors of the economy and for future generations. The National Climate Assessment doesn't say what should be done about global warming. White House science adviser John Holdren writes that it will help leaders, regulators, city planners and even farmers figure out
what to do to cope with coming changes. And climate change is more than hotter temperatures, the report said. "Human-induced climate change means much more than just hotter weather," the report says, listing risingseas, downpours, melting glaciers and permafrost, and worsening storms. "These changes and other climatic changes have affected and will continue to affect human
health, water supply, agriculture, transportation, energy, and many other aspects of society." "Climate change and its impacts threaten the wellbeing of urban residents in all 13 regions of the U.S.," the report said. "Essential local and regional infrastructure systems such as water, energy supply, and transportation will increasingly be compromised by interrelated climate change impacts."

NATION 'Death Star' petition rejected by White House CHICAGO — The Obama administration has officially rejected a citizen petition calling for the building of a "Star Wars"-style "Death Star," citing the enormous cost of the project, its opposition to destroying entire planets and critical design flaws. Paul Shawcross, chief of the Science and Space Branch at the White House Office of Management and Budget, made the official response on the White House website He said the administration shares the desire for job creation and a strong national defense but noted that the construction cost has been estimated at more than $850 quadrillion, and "we're working hard to reduce the deficit, not expand it." "The administration does not support blowing up planets," he said. Shawcross also questioned the sense of spending "countless taxpayer dollars on a Death Star with a fundamental flaw that can be exploited by a one-man starship."
Biden offers to speak with Newtown families HARTFORD, Conn. — Vice President Joe Biden, who is leading an administration review of gun-safety laws, has offered to talk with any families of the Connecticut elementary school shooting victims who would like to speak with him personally, a support group said Saturday. The group, Sandy Hook Promise, has been working to help the families whose loved ones were killed in the Dec. 14 massacre of 20 first-graders and six women at Sandy Hook Elementary in Newtown. It said in an email to the families that it could arrange a call or put the families in touch directly with Biden's office. "If you choose to wait a few weeks, or months, the offer is still there," the group wrote. President Barack Obama pushed reducing gun violence to the top of his domestic agenda following the shooting in Newtown. Obama put Biden in charge of an administration task force and set a late January deadline for proposals.

Prosecutors approve search for Gacy victims CHICAGO — Detectives who have long wondered if John Wayne Gacy killed others besides the 33 young men he was convicted of murdering may soon get to search for bodies underneath an apartment complex where his late mother once lived, a law enforcement official said Saturday. Frank Bilecki, a spokesman for Cook County Sheriff Tom Dart, confirmed a Chicago Sun-Times report that Cook County State's Attorney Anita Alvarez agreed to ask a judge for a warrant to search the housing complex on the city's Northwest Side. Such requests for search warrants are routinely approved. Bilecki said that investigators would bring in high-tech thermal imaging devices that detect underground anomalies indicating something may have been buried. —FROM WIRE REPORTS

BIG CYPRESS NATIONAL PRESERVE, Fla. — An armed mob set out into the Florida Everglades on Saturday to flush out a scaly invader. It sounds like the second act of a sci-fi horror flick but, really, it's pretty much Florida's plan for dealing with an infestation of Burmese pythons that are eating their way through a fragile ecosystem. Nearly 800 people signed up for the month-long "Python Challenge" that started Saturday afternoon. The vast majority — 749 — are members of the general public who lack the permits usually required to harvest pythons on public lands. "We feel like anybody can get out in the Everglades and figure out how to try and find these things," said Nick Wiley, executive director of the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission. "It's very safe, getting out in the Everglades. People do it all the time." Twenty-eight python permit holders also joined the hunt at various locations in the Everglades. The state is offering cash prizes to whoever brings in the longest python and whoever bags the most pythons by the time the competition ends at midnight Feb. 10. Dozens of would-be python hunters showed up for

some last-minute training in snake handling Saturday morning at the University of Florida Fort Lauderdale Research and Education Center in Davie. The training came down to common sense: Drink water, wear sunscreen, don't get bitten by anything and don't shoot anyone. Many of the onlookers dressed in camouflage, though they probably didn't have to worry about spooking the snakes. They would have a much harder time spotting the splotchy, tan pythons in the long green grasses and woody brush of the Everglades. "It's advantage-snake,"
mechanical engineer Dan Keenan concluded after slashing his way through a quarter-mile of scratchy sawgrass, dried leaves and woody overgrowth near a campsite in the Big Cypress National Preserve, which is about 50 miles southeast of Naples and is supervised by the National Park Service. Keenan, of Merritt Island, and friend Steffani Burd of Melbourne, a statistician in computer security, holstered large knives and pistols on their hips, so they'd be ready for any python that crossed their path. The snakes can grow to more than 20 feet in length.
CHICAGO (AP) — In the week since news surfaced that a Chicago man was poisoned to death with cyanide just before he was to collect a lottery payout, surprising details about his convoluted family saga have trickled out. Urooj Khan's widow and siblings fought for months over the businessman's estate, including the lottery check. His father-in-law owed tens of thousands of dollars in taxes. His 17-yearold daughter from a previous marriage had moved out of her stepmom's home and into his sister's after his death. Then his ex-wife came forward, announcing in anguish that she hadn't seen her daughter in more than a decade and hadn't known she was in the U.S. The slowly emerging family backstory and everexpanding cast of characters have added layers of intrigue to a baffling case in which authorities have revealed little and everyone is wondering: Who did it? The victim's relatives hint at family squabbles. And Khan's wife, Shabana Ansari, has endured clutches of
reporters outside the family home and business, asking what dinner she made for Khan on the night he died. "She's just as curious as anyone else to get to the bottom of what caused her husband's death," said AlHaroon Husain, who is representing Ansari in the case that will divide up Khan's estate, including the $425,000 in lottery winnings. Ansari and other relatives have denied any role in his death and expressed a desire to learn the truth. Authorities remain tightlipped about who they may suspect. In the coming weeks, they plan to exhume the 46-year-old Indian immigrant's body. He was days from receiving his winnings when he died before dawn on July 20. The night before, Khan ate dinner with his wife, daughter and father-in-law. Sometime that night, Khan awoke feeling ill and collapsed as he tried to get up from a chair, his wife has said, according to the Chicago Sun-Times. Khan died without a will, leading to a court battle.
Mississippi rock blasting puts river in ship shape ST. LOUIS — Crews have completed the most critical phase of removing bedrock that threatened barges along a crucial stretch of the droughtstarved Mississippi River, staving off the shipping industry's fears that the treacherous channel could close to traffic, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers said Saturday. Using excavators and explosives, corps-hired contractors cleared 365 cubic yards of limestone and added two vital feet of depth to the channel near Thebes, Ill., about 130 miles south of St. Louis, the corps said. That phase, which began last month, addressed the most pressing threat to mariners, and additional rock removal is expected nearby, the corps said. "The river rock removal contractors executed their work quickly and efficiently in the primary areas of concern," said Maj. Gen. John Peabody, commander of the corps' Mississippi Valley division. "The work has deepened the channel enough to successfully maintain navigation through this critical reach of the river."

Bad TV ups the violence factor
iolence in the movies has usually been lightly or slightly regarded. In the old westerns, a cowboy riding north could fire a single shot from his sixshooter and hit an opponent a block away, riding south. In the old James Bond movies, enemies of the state were gunned off ledges in astounding numbers, often plunging to their demise one after the other, like synchronized swimmers entering the pool. This week at the movies, the top two shows are "Texas Chainsaw" and "Django Unchained," the two most violent movies on the charts. "Chainsaw" is in 3-D, in case two-dimensional bone splinters and gut remnants aren't enough. Plot? What plot?: Violence in movies is noticed more when the show isn't any good. Watch either of the first two Godfathers, and you could say, "What violence?" The violence on the TV show "Justified" never bothered me until the other night when one of the characters shot a man dead over a misunderstanding; a matter of semantics. The murder was given the consideration of a minor misstep — oops, shove him under the chair and let's go eat. This series is beginning its fourth season on FX. The first two years were great; the third fair. This season started like most good ideas that become overnight sensations: It thinks it's so cute. The plot is thin, the dialogue artsy. The show is about drugs among the hicks in the sticks, and the violence that frames that lifestyle, those rusty saws. There's still hope for this one, but it needs to wipe that smirk off its suddenly more recognizable face. There appears to be but one chance left for a high level of quality in the field of TV fiction this year: "Southland," which starts a 10-episode run in February on TNT. This one is about cops in the battlefields of inner-city L.A. It shows what dealing with the flip side of humanity — inhumanity — can do to a person just trying to do most of the right things. This series has been so good, with such memorable characters, that it's a miracle it's still on the air. Real violence scatters viewers: Violence on any screen stands out more after all the recent killings in real life. You see people sliced or blasted and immediately wonder how that might register with somebody nuts or evil. When it comes to violence on a screen, a person is now apt to think about a better way to be entertained. Censorship advocates must note that somebody unstable could hear a call to arms from a butterfly.

Ross to sing at Speaker's Ball • The sold-out event on Feb. 1 will benefit the 111Project. BY BARBARA HOBEROCK World Capitol Bureau
OKLAHOMA CITY — The soldout Speaker's Ball on Feb. 1 will feature legendary singer and actress Diana Ross. The black-tie event begins at 6:30 p.m. at the Embassy Suites Hotel and Conference Center in Norman. The location will hold 1,120 people, said Marian Free, Oklahoma
Speaker's Ball Inc. executive director. Tickets were $150, she said. Rep. T.W. Shannon, R-Lawton, is Oklahoma's first black House speaker. He is also an enrolled memRoss ber of the Chickasaw Nation. He was sworn in on Tuesday during organizational day. The Speaker's Ball will benefit the 111Project. The organization, launched in 2011, recruits foster
families across the state. "There is nothing more important than investing in young people," said Shannon, a father of two. The purpose of the group is to ensure no Oklahoma child goes without a family, said Ben Nockels, 111Project executive director. "Money raised will go directly to more effectively recruiting, training and supporting new foster families from the faith community," Nockels said. Former Gov. Frank Keating and his wife, Cathy, will emcee the event, Free said. Keating, a Republican, served as governor from 1995
until 2003. Gov. Mary Fallin and her husband, Wade Christensen, the state's first "First Gentleman," are expected to attend. Miss America 2007, Lauren Nelson, will sing the National Anthem, Free said. Nelson is from Lawton. Shannon will be introduced by four of his personal mentors, she said. They are Chickasaw Nation Gov. Bill Anoatubby, U.S. Rep. Tom Cole, businessman Russell M. Perry and former U.S. Rep. J.C. Watts. The event will also include video SEE BALL A17

Bald Eagle Days
Nature on the wing, seminars draw enthusiasts BY DAVID HARPER World Staff Writer
The spirits of local bald eagle enthusiasts are soaring this weekend. The Bald Eagle Days event offers an opportunity for those with an interest in America's national bird to see them in their own habitat along the Arkansas River and then to subsequently get a closer look at a series of
seminars at the Jenks High School Freshman Academy. Tulsa Audubon Society president John Kennington said Saturday that the two-part event, now in its second year, allows birdlovers and novices to learn more about the "mystique" behind the birds. Kennington estimated there are about 200 bald eagles that nest in Oklahoma but that hundreds more migrate through the state.
He said they are "birds of opportunity" who aren't very picky about what they consume. "They will eat whatever they can get their talons on," Kennington said.

Skiatook schools healing from scandal BY RHETT MORGAN World Staff Writer
SKIATOOK — When tensions rise at a Skiatook School Board meeting, President Tim Allen said he and his two veteran colleagues reflect on the winter of 2010. And gain perspective. "I don't know how many times in the boardroom, some of the new members will say, 'This is just stressful,' " Allen said. "We're all three

thinking, 'you don't even know what stress is.' " Three years ago come February, a state investigative audit crash-landed on the school district's administration, exposing purchasing practices that had spun out of control. On everything from mop heads to trash cans, the school was paying 100 percent to 450 percent more than typical retail prices, with the district forking over an average commission of 63 cents for every

dollar it spent on janitorial supplies. By the time the scandal was over, emboldened school patrons had rallied for the formation of a Tulsa County grand jury, which led to former school superintendent Gary Johnson and Oklahoma City vendor Rick Enos being convicted on state and federal bribery-related charges. "In my opinion, the school has done a 180(-degree turn) in so many ways," Allen said. "With (Skiatook Superintendent) Mr. (Rick) Thomas

being at the helm, we've recovered our patron confidence. That was evident in the bond issue we just passed at 70 percent." That bond proposition, OK'd in August, cleared the way for construction of a new 23,000-squarefoot second- and third-grade center, new secure entrances at every campus site, technology upgrades and other improvements.

Memorial service Tulsan invented changeable signs set Thursday for City Hall reporter Don Downing 1925-2013
World Staff Writer
While working at his job in the city of Tulsa's Legal Department one day, Don Downing saw a sign. Like a lot of his ideas, it just kind of came to him — popped up in his head. And as usual, he knew he had to act on it. What Downing, an investigator for the legal staff, envisioned was a traffic sign — not just any kind, but a more effective sign that could be programmed to change messages. Having inherited his father's inventive spirit, the lifelong Tulsan set about fashioning one. Downing 's mechanical signs caught on, initially for posting speed limits in school zones. He went on to patent a variety of them for all sorts of traffic needs. That was in the 1960s. Downing's company is still in business. Now run by his sons, and having expanded to other products, it continues to reflect Downing's best qualities, family members say. "He had an inquisitive mind," said his wife, Deanie Downing. "Don wanted to know why things did what they did. If he got stuck, he stayed with it until he figured it out. And he always did." Donald Marvin Downing, a World War II veteran, inventor and founder of Downing Manufacturing, died Wednesday. He was 87.
Don Downing shows some of the mechanically changeable traffic signs he designed and manufactured at his business, Downing Manufacturing, in Tulsa. Downing, 87, died Wednesday. A service is set for Monday. Tulsa World file
A service is set for 2 p.m. Monday at the Memorial Park Cemetery Chapel under the direction of Mark Griffith-Westwood Funeral Home. Downing's first order was for 10 school-zone signs for the city of Tulsa. From there, his business, housed in a small west Tulsa building, grew. Soon nearly every school in the Tulsa area had at least one of his signs. Achieved through a mechanical system of doors that opened and closed with an internal clock, Downing's signs could be set to change messages at intervals. Using the same system, he also made no-left-turn signs, railroad-crossing signs, signs with messages for tractortrailer rigs and signs alerting
drivers to high-water dangers. 3M, a national company, later began selling his signs. Eventually, Downing 's signs were advising drivers in nearly every state and 19 other countries about traffic issues. Technology advanced, and Downing's design is no longer used, although many of his well-made signs are still operating in Tulsa and elsewhere. But he continued to invent and patent other products. One of the company's chief products now is an applicator he developed that road crews use to attach reflectors to the pavement. One of eight children, Downing was a graduate of Webster High School. He served three years in the Ma-

A memorial service for Tulsa World City Hall reporter Brian Barber has been set for 10:30 a.m. Thursday at Redeemer Covenant Church, 5415 E. 101st St., under the direction of Moore's Southlawn Funeral Home. Barber, 39, died Wednesday from complications related to two heart transplants. Barber had his first transplant in 2000, when he was 26, and the second in 2005. To honor Barber, city councilors and Mayor Dewey Bartlett agreed last week to name the City Council chambers' media area after him. A graduate of Tulsa's Memorial High School who held a bachelor's degree from the University of South Dakota, Barber joined the Tulsa World as a night police reporter in 1996. He later worked as a general assignment reporter before moving to the City Hall beat in 2004. As a reporter, Barber wrote simply and directly and was known for his accuracy, clarity and fairness, as the mayor and multiple city councilors noted in remembering him. Barber provided comprehensive reporting on the construction and opening of Tulsa's downtown arena and the contentious conversion of the city's trash service to a volume-based system that included recycling.

He also was honored by the AP in 2004 for his reporting on RxDepot, a Tulsa-based business that helped Americans buy cheaper prescription drugs from Canadian pharmacies. Because of ongoing complications from his transplants and cardiomyopathy, a genetic heart condition that had made them necessary, Barber never had it easy. But he covered his beat thoroughly, with wit and aplomb, and was beloved by both colleagues and his story subjects alike.

116th Street North section to close for overpass project BY JARREL WADE

106th St. N. N. Yale Ave.
Beginning on Monday, crews will shut down 116th Street North at U.S. 75 for about nine months while state transportation crews construct an overpass above the highway, Oklahoma Department of Transportation officials said. U.S. 75 will close for portions of the nine-month construction but will remain open Monday and for significant portions of the project, according to an ODOT release. Detours for drivers on 116th Street North will rely on North Yale Avenue and North Harvard Avenue on either side of the highway, as drivers make their way to either 126th Street North or 106th Street North, ODOT officials said. For portions of the project when U.S. 75 is closed, drivers will have to exit at 106th Street North or 126th Street North and go to North Yale Avenue to return to the highway in their respective direction. The roadway above U.S. 75 will close at 7 a.m. Mon-

Week in review Downtown demolition ban:
City Councilor Blake Ewing has proposed extending a temporary ban on demolishing downtown buildings for surface parking lots until the council can consider permanent restrictions in the zoning code. A six-month moratorium took effect July 18 and is set to expire at the end of the month. "It's basically just to put the brakes on and to say we're developing something that will affect downtown forever," Ewing said during a council committee meeting Thursday. "Let's make sure nothing crazy happens in the next short period of time." Planning Director Dawn Warrick said the city is drafting code amendments that would ban most new surface lots and create a stricter application and review process for businesses seeking to demolish buildings. That would empower the city to preserve historic buildings after decades of watching its skyline erode, Ewing said. Extending the moratorium for six months should allow city personnel to finish the proposed code amendments during a time when "there has been a general murmur that some properties may be on the chopping block," Ewing said. The moratorium, he added, would "keep someone from doing something ridiculous" before the council can consider any amendments. Changes in the demolition application process likely would include requiring businesses to explain the purpose of their demolition and "to make the public aware of what they're doing," Warrick said. Ewing said the current process gives the city no say in what is built after the demolition and requires only a small amount of paperwork. Holiday trash service: Tulsans recycled more in the two weeks after Christmas than in any period since the Oct. 1 launch of the city's curbside trash and recycling service as the program marked a successful first holiday season, officials said Tuesday. The city's 116,500 households put 452.96 tons of material into recycle bins last week and 412 tons the week before — up from a weekly average of 374.1 tons over the previous three months, city spokeswoman Liz Hunt said. Meanwhile, calls for missed trash service seemed to increase only slightly — if at all — in the two weeks following Christmas, when some collection schedules were adjusted, Hunt said. The solid waste helpline fielded 2,763 calls last week, up from 2,519 during the week of Dec. 10, but that includes complaints unrelated to missed trash service, Hunt said.

Those numbers are misleading because the city's call center was closed for three days around Christmas and New Year's Day, but there was little indication of widespread collection problems, said Eric Lee, the city's solid waste manager. Increases in trash collections were modest. During the week of Dec. 24, tonnage increased only slightly from the week of Dec. 10, when the city set a three-month weekly low at 1,510.7 tons, Hunt said. Both figures were well below the previous three-month average of 1,649.12 tons per week. The figure increased to 1,817 tons during the week of Dec. 31, falling short of the three-month high of 1,891.2 tons during the week of Nov. 26. Christmas trees are being collected through January for free — without the need for a 50-cent green waste sticker — and can be dropped at the city's green waste site at 10401 E. 56th St. North from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. seven days a week. For curbside pickup, trees must be no longer than 6 feet and must have no lights, tinsel or ornaments. Some residents may have forgotten those stipulations, which are among "a host of reasons" a tree might not be collected, Hunt said. Residents can call 918-5969777 to report accidental missed collections or find out why their tree has been passed over, she said. Tax credits: Three city councilors said last week that they have no regrets about supporting $14 million in federal affordable housing tax credits over 10 years for the acquisition and rehabilitation of the apartment complex where four women were gunned down Monday. The City Council approved a resolution Oct. 18 expressing the city's support for the application by Midwest Development Partners of Kansas City, Mo., which is putting together a deal that could place the Fairmont Terrace apartments, 1111 E. 60th St., in the hands of local owners. Support of the local governing body is required as part of the application process for federal

day as crews with Sherwood Construction Company begin their estimated $8 million construction project. The project was moved up in ODOT's schedule this year in response to additional funding availability and a high crash rate, ODOT spokeswoman Kenna Mitchell said previously. Drivers were failing to yield along 116th Street North, Mitchell said. The project will include dedicated ramps for entering and leaving the highway, according to ODOT plans.

Council action
Public safety group: Tulsa Police Chief Chuck Jordan said Thursday that he would support an effort by the City Council to establish a public safety intelligence working group immediately to explore ways to improve communication between residents and the police. "In areas of the city where we have had tremendous success — Washington Heights (a neighborhood near Apache Street and Peoria Avenue) is always one I like to point to — it has been community involvement that has been the tipping point that has gotten us over the edge, so we encourage and solicit any community help we can get," Jordan told councilors during an afternoon committee meeting. The police chief was asked to attend the meeting to answer questions in the wake of Monday's quadruple homicide at the
Fairmont Terrace. Jordan acknowledged the limits on what can be gained through crime tip lines and other anonymous methods of gathering information from the public, noting that often it's criminals looking for lighter sentences who provide important leads. Still, he added, "If we know we've got people dealing dope in an apartment, if we know we've got people committing violent acts, we need to be told about it and who it is. That would help us tremendously. We could then get on it before a tragedy occurs." Bynum proposed creating the working group. "What I am hearing is, 'What can we (as residents) be doing to make the community safer?' " Bynum said. Representatives of the Tulsa Police Department, the Tulsa County Sheriff's Office, the U.S. Marshal's Office, the Mayor's Office and local media outlets will be invited to be part of the working group, Bynum said, as well as anyone law enforcement might suggest. The working group is expected to report back to the council in 30 days.
Human Rights commissioner reappointed: City Councilors voted
Thursday to reject a request by Mayor Dewey Bartlett to hold off on a vote to reappoint Dennis Dubois to the Human Rights Commission and then voted 7-2 to reappoint him. Bartlett failed to nominate a replacement for Dubois within 60 days, giving the council the right to reappoint him. Bartlett sent a letter to councilors last month noting concerns about Dubois' nomination that came to light during the city's investigation into Lana Turner-Addison, the city's former Human Rights Department director. Turner-Addison was fired in September. Reporter to be honored: City councilors and Mayor Dewey Bartlett agreed Thursday to name the City Council Chamber's media area for former Tulsa World reporter Brian Barber. Barber, 39, died Wednesday after a long struggle with heart failure and complications caused by anti-rejection drugs related to two heart transplants. He became a reporter for the World in 1996 and started covering City Hall in 2004. "I know that whenever I walk into this room, I always looked at that chair in that box to where he sat and did his work, his craft," Bartlett said during Thursday night's City Council meeting. The mayor suggested that a plaque with Barber's date of birth, date of death and the position he held at the World be affixed to the short room-divider wall that designates the area where journalists covering meetings sit, "to make note that this is Brian Barber's box and chair." — KEVIN CANFIELD and ZACK STOYCOFF, World Staff Writers

affordable housing tax credits, which are administered by the Oklahoma Housing Finance Agency. "The reason I was supportive was that that area needs all the help it can get, and there is only so much local government can do," said City Councilor G.T. Bynum, whose District 9 includes the apartment complex. "So when you have the private sector that is willing to step up and improve the overall security of the facility, I thought it (was a good idea)." City Councilor Jeannie Cue, whose District 2 also includes part of the crime-ridden 61st Street and Peoria Avenue area, said it is her understanding that a local company is among the investors interested in purchasing the apartments. "Our agreement was that they would improve security because that was a concern residents had expressed to me," Cue said. The real estate purchase contract lists Midwest Development Partners as the buyer at a cost of $18 million. A separate document lists the overall development cost at $42.6 million. Bynum said the local investment in the project played a big role in his support for the tax credit application. "I wanted to make sure this just wasn't another in a long line of out-of-state investors who use the apartments in that area to get federal subsidies at the expense of our community," he said. City Councilor Phil Lakin was one of several councilors who questioned representatives of Midwest Development Partners about the company's security plans for the property. "They said all the right things to indicate to me that they are really going to work here to make that a safer apartment complex," Lakin said. "Then that will provide a lot of momentum that could cause the rest of the neighborhood to change."

The school district also has tightened institutional controls and adopted, among other items, a whistleblower policy. Allen, Galen Driskill and Suzette Blankenship are the lone remaining school board members from February 2010. Susan Ridenour and Mike Mullins round out the panel. "I think we're a tighterknit group," Allen said. "And we've used that experience to kind of enlighten our new ones. "We've gone through hard times and we're still there. We want to be there." For righting a listing ship, Thomas praised the work of Kem Keithly, interim superintendent from November 2010 to July 2011, saying his financial acumen set the stage for the district's recovery. He also said the passage of last year's bond question shows progress. "That's what it amounts to — the trust factor," said Thomas, a former Oologah superintendent who became Skiatook's top administrator in the summer of '11. "Are we doing what we say we are doing?" "I was familiar enough with the community and the district ... I knew there were a lot more positives than negatives. They had some tough things that they were going through. But I knew enough people in the area and I knew it was a good town and a good school district with good people." Enos, 60, and Johnson, 57, remain entangled in litigation, with a federal sentencing date looming next month. In October, both pleaded guilty in federal court to a charge accusing them of fil-
remarks from all of the state's living former speakers of the Oklahoma House, including Rex Privett, who founded the ball, Free said. Privett served as House speaker from 1967 until 1973. Ross rose to fame in the 1960s as a founding member and lead singer of The Supremes. The Motown group had numerous hit singles, including "Where Did Our Love Go," "Baby Love" and "Stop in the Name of Love." After going solo, Ross continued her success, with hits like "Ain't No Mountain High Enough." She is currently on tour and will perform at the WinStar Casino in Thackerville on Feb. 2 and at the Hardrock Hotel & Casino Tulsa on Feb. 5. Shannon said that he wanted the entertainment to be
ing false federal income tax returns and accepting and soliciting bribes in connection with the Skiatook Public Schools case. Their sentencing in U.S. District Court is set for Feb. 7. In Tulsa County District Court, Enos pleaded guilty in May to state charges of offering bribes totaling $10,000 to Johnson while he was the district's superintendent. Enos was sentenced to 10 years of probation and was ordered to pay restitution of $420,606. Johnson pleaded guilty to four counts of accepting cash bribes and in June was sentenced to 15 years' probation. He was ordered to pay $236,591 in restitution. Thus far, Enos has reimbursed the school district $78,607 and Johnson $29,000, said Tulsa County District Attorney Tim Harris, who maintains that probation for the defendants benefits the school more. "Having these guys out there busting their butt and repaying that money to the students who they stole it from, I still think that was better justice," the prosecutor said. "I'd rather have this kind of sentence hanging over their heads and them out there making payments every month. Hopefully, we'll get everything paid and those kids will be made whole." Enos is making restitution of about $3,000 monthly, Johnson $1,200, Harris said. If they fail to make successive payments, prosecutors can file an application to revoke their probation and place them in prison, the district attorney said. "So far, they are paying like clockwork," Harris said. Rhett Morgan 918-581-8395 firstname.lastname@example.com
significant and something that people will remember. "It is really about the optimism that exists in the state of Oklahoma and this lady is a legend in the music world," Shannon said. "I think it will be representative of a great start to the legislative session." Those who attend the event go to several events a year, but the ball represents the one event focused on the legislative session, Shannon said. "There has been so much success in Oklahoma, so much prosperity," Shannon said. "We wanted an event that would reflect that. I think this is a great way to do it. Again, it is about the charity we will be donating to but it is also about looking forward to the future for the state of Oklahoma and there is a lot of optimism out there and a lot of opportunity."

Ann Robinson takes a peek through one of the spotting scopes on the east side of the Arkansas River to view eagles on the opposite side of the river. MICHAEL WYKE/Tulsa World
said bald eagles eat fish but also will devour many other creatures including other birds, such as American coots and ducks. "Their first choice is what's easiest," Humphrey said. Sunday's schedule for Bald Eagle Days will follow the same format as Saturday. The seminars about eagles and other birdrelated topics will occur from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. in Jenks. Those sessions will be preceded by a gathering at Helmerich Park, 7301 S. Riverside Parkway from 8 a.m. to 9:30 a.m., during which people will look across the Arkansas River at nesting bald eagles. On Saturday, Bill Weisrock, a selfdescribed amateur photographer, was attempting to get a good shot of one the birds. Meanwhile, Gary Weaver said he showed up on the wickedly cold morning hoping to get a good look at an eagle for the first time. Humphrey said part of that appeal is due to the size of bald eagles. He said their wingspans can measure six feet or longer, meaning that they create quite a scene as they swoop through the air. Kennington suggested their predatory nature may have something to do with their popularity, although he said that the screeching sound one hears in some film footage is actually dubbed in from other types of birds with more impressive voices. Eagles occupy a sacred role in some cultures and are known to practice monogamy. Humphrey said the two that Helmerich Park visitors were viewing on Saturday morning from afar have been together at least seven years. David Harper 918-581-8359 firstname.lastname@example.com

NOTEBOOK Flat tax: State Sen. Patrick
Anderson filed legislation last week to scrap the state's income tax system and replace it with a flat 2.9 percent tax. "The bottom line is if you replace our current system with a flat tax, then all taxpayers are treated equally," Anderson said. Democrats wasted no time criticizing the plan, saying it would increase the tax burden of lowand middle-income Oklahomans. "It may be revenue-neutral to the state, but it's devastating to the poor, to the disabled, to veterans and to retirees," said House Democratic leader Scott Inman of Del City. As written, the bill would do away with all tax deductions, exemptions and credits. Non-partisan elections: Republicans will take another run at nonpartisan county elections this session. Rep. Josh Cockroft, R-Tecumseh, has filed pieces of legislation to do so for sheriff elections and all county offices. Republicans are particularly keen on nonpartisan county elections because they see it as a gateway to eliminating Democrats' last stronghold — county offices in southern Oklahoma.

he struggles to put together his children's some-assembly-required Christmas presents, he finds it helpful to set aside the instructions and look at the picture on the box. Oklahoma is already on its way to being that "picture on the box" for other states to see how conservative values can produce a prosperous, low-tax, high-employment economy, he told the House. "The picture is not quite complete but what's taking shape is a state that leads in job growth, has lower taxes, values human life and balances the budget," he said. In the audience for Shannon's speech was U.S. Rep. Tom Cole, and the new House speaker referred to the Fourth District Republican as his "mentor." Cole's political career took him from the state Capitol to the U.S. Capitol, and it wouldn't be hard to imagine Shannon trying to follow that same path. Shannon didn't hesitate to plunge ahead into national politics. At one point he offered President Obama a pithy pointer on how the United States can balance its budget as the state of Oklahoma does. "Mr. President, if you're listening, I'll give you a hint: the key is controlling spending, not raising taxes," Shannon said. Later, he laid down his marker in a strident defense of state's rights. "Today we live in a country with an out-of-control federal government that is bankrupt both financially and morally," Shannon said. "As a result we have fewer freedoms, we pay more
taxes than we should, and there is little hope of these things changing under our president and this current Congress. "So let me say this: The state of Oklahoma will not go down the path of Washington, D.C. Not on my watch." It's obvious, Shannon said, that he is conservative, and, on that point, he is correct. But his speech — though forthright in its Republican doctrine — also sought to ease the partisan tensions of the Capitol. He didn't blush about his beliefs, but he delivered them in a friendly, open fashion. For all its directness, the speech didn't have a partisan feel to it. His repeated reminders to both sides of the aisle was that the House's business isn't the party's business. It is the people's business. The people don't wake up thinking of themselves as conservatives or liberals, and the politicians in Oklahoma City could benefit from organizing their thoughts that same way, he said. "If anything, they wake up and ask themselves, how can I provide a sense of prosperity for me and my family," Shannon said. "Ladies and gentlemen, that is the key. It's not really about labels, is it? "It's about doing what's right to see the next generation prospers, regardless of party or philosophy. We can come together and find common ground. We can make Oklahoma that picture on the box for the rest of the country." Wayne Greene 918-581-8308 firstname.lastname@example.com

Wife arrested in husband's death OWASSO — An Owasso woman was arrested Friday night after a domestic dispute turned deadly. Tulsa County Sheriff's deputies were dispatched to the 9200 block of East 116th Street North just after 9 p.m. Friday after Vickie Lou McNeely, 69, called 911 stating she had shot her husband after he came toward her with a knife, deputies said. Deputies arrived and found Daniel McNeely in the hallway to the left of the front door in a kneeling position with his head against the floor.
JAILED Vickie Lou McNeely: The 69-year-old called 911 stating she had shot her husband after he came toward her with a knife, Tulsa County Sheriff's deputies said. To the left of his head were two silver kitchen knives, deputies said. He had what appeared to be five bullet
wounds, including one to the back of the head. Deputies discovered a .38-caliber revolver with a five-shot cylinder with all five rounds spent. Vickie Lou McNeely smelled of alcohol and had slurred speech, deputies said. Deputies transported her to the Sheriff's Office and then to the Tulsa Jail, where she was booked on complaints of first-degree murder. — MIKE AVERILL, World Staff Writer

A Tulsa County jury imposed sentences of life and 40 years in prison in connection with a shooting case where a man was killed and a woman survived being shot. Jurors on Friday found Channen Ray Ozell Smith guilty of first-degree murder in the killing of Dominique Eugene Jasper, who was shot on Oct. 23, 2010, outside a residence in the 1800 block of North HarSmith vard Avenue. Jasper, 26, died about three weeks later. The life sentence for murder requires Smith, 23, to serve more than 38 years behind bars before being eligible for parole. Smith was also convicted of shooting with intent to
kill, related to the wounding of a woman at the scene, Carlameisha Jefferson. Smith got a 20-year term for that crime. Smith was also found guilty of possessing a firearm as a felon and discharging a firearm into a dwelling. He incurred two 10-year sentences for those offenses. Assistant District Attorney Gary Davis said at the trial that two eyewitnesses identified Smith as the shooter. Retaliation for a recent assault and fight was one motive for the shooting, with evidence indicating that Smith fired a semi-automatic handgun, according to Davis. Assistant Public Defender Glen Dresback presented an alibi defense for Smith, asserting that he was in Claremore and not at the shooting scene. In January 2011, Smith was sentenced to seven years in prison when his probation for drug and gun-possession offenses was revoked, records show.

Subsidized coverage: Who's in, who's out Without Medicaid expansion in Oklahoma, roughly 200,000 people, mostly adults, will remain ineligible for the program. Among those are tens of thousands of parents. Many of these parents and others, totaling anywhere from 130,000 to 170,000 people, will be stuck in a crater next year, earning too much to get Medicaid but not enough to qualify to buy subsidized coverage on a federal health exchange, an online insurance market. Here's an example of what a low-income Oklahoma family with two parents and two children will face, based on figures from 2012. The children are already covered by Medicaid. • If the parents earn $6,996 or less: They're eligible for Medicaid. • If the parents earn more than $6,996 but less than $23,050 (100 percent of the federal poverty level): The parents are stuck in a "crater," earning too much to get Medicaid and too little to qualify for buying on the federal health exchange using tax credits that cover most of the cost of premiums. • If the parents earn more than $23,050 but less than $92,200 (400 percent of the federal poverty level): The parents are not eligible for Medicaid. However, they can purchase subsidized insurance on the federal exchange. Depending on their income, their cost of premiums will be capped at anywhere from 2 percent to 9.5 percent of their income. Those earning up to 250 percent of the poverty level will also get subsidies for other costs, such as deductibles, co-payments and coinsurance.

The Affordable Care Act offers two main avenues to health insurance coverage starting Jan. 1, 2014. One is through Medicaid expansion, encompassing those with incomes up to 133 percent of the federal poverty level, currently $30,657 for a family of four. The other is through a government health-care exchange where people can shop for plans online. People making between 100 percent and 400 percent of the poverty level can buy insurance on the exchange using tax credits to cover most of the cost. Fallin decided not to set up a state health-care exchange for Oklahoma, so a federal one will serve the state instead. Oklahomans who would have been eligible for expanded Medicaid are a diverse group, according to the Urban Institute study, released in August. More than half are between ages 19 and 35, and more than threefourths live below the federal poverty level, which is $11,170 for an individual and $23,050 for a family of four. About 60 percent are white. About 24 percent are parents, compared to 18 percent nationally, the study found. The study pegged at 225,000 the total number of Oklahoma adults who would have gained coverage under expanded Medicaid. The Oklahoma Health Care Authority estimates the number at about 200,000. William Noel, pastor of Grace and Glory Baptist Church in northeast Oklahoma City, which sponsors a free clinic, said many people would be surprised at the variety of uninsured Oklahomans. "These aren't homeless people who don't have jobs," he said. "In our free clinic, we see people all the time from various professions — teachers, small-business owners and a lot of truck drivers. "In fact, I don't have insurance," added Noel, saying his church can't afford the coverage.
Low-income adults
low the federal poverty level. His employer has seven workers and doesn't offer health insurance. The couple's best hope may be to raise their income to just above the poverty level, so they are in the window of between 100 percent and 400 percent that allows them to get discount coverage on the health exchange. This could become a goal for thousands of Oklahomans living just below the poverty line. One risk is that the subsidies could go away if a lawsuit filed by Oklahoma Attorney General Scott Pruitt is successful. The lawsuit contends that the federal health law is worded in such a way that subsidies can be offered only through state exchanges, not the federal one that Oklahoma will have. Greg Rogers is already trying to boost his pay. He awakens at 5 a.m. and works at his full-time job until about 3:45 p.m. He then attends classes as part of a three-year apprenticeship that will ultimately earn him a certification that can lead to higher pay. The apprenticeship costs $27,000. "I remember one day a man (from an outside insurer) came to talk to us at work about signing us up for health insurance," Greg said. "I knew I couldn't afford it before he even began to talk. Right now, I have money taken out of each check to pay for the apprenticeship. We need every penny I make just to get by. "I'll be honest, I worry a lot about my health. I pray nothing happens to me. If something did happen, it would be devastating to my wife and kids."
The family's options The Rogerses ran into trouble a year ago when Keta Rogers was laid off from the Del City Housing Authority. She was six months' pregnant at the time, so she qualified for temporary assistance from SoonerCare. Today, the couple's three children — Maeahja, 14; Elisha, 12; and Triumph, 10 months — are all covered by SoonerCare. But Greg and Keta Rogers don't qualify. Greg Rogers' annual income of $27,000 is well above the $8,184 limit for parents in a family of five to get Medicaid and just be-

HEATHER BROWN/ Oklahoma Watch
Low-income adults are most at risk of being uninsured. They generally do not qualify for Medicaid. To qualify, they must fit a specific category, such as being pregnant or disabled. That is the case in most states. Ineligible adults include many parents. For a family of four in Oklahoma, nondisabled parents must make $6,996 or less a year to get SoonerCare, unless they fall into one of the categories. "Basically, for parents to qualify for SoonerCare, they have to be essentially destitute," said Carter Kimble, a spokesman for the Oklahoma Health Care Authority. The Urban Institute estimated that 53,000 parents in Oklahoma would have gotten Medicaid with the expansion. About 60 percent of those are in the "crater," so they won't be able to buy affordable coverage on the health exchange. Without Medicaid or employer insurance, uninsured parents and other adults have relatively few options: • They can obtain coverage through Insure Oklahoma, which offers subsidized plans
Keta Rogers cooks with her 14-year-old daughter, Maeahja, who, along with her two siblings, is covered by government-provided insurance.
to individuals and workers at small businesses. The program is now limited to about 35,000 enrollees, and participating businesses must have a qualified health plan. Weintz, Fallin's spokesman, said the governor is looking at expanding Insure Oklahoma to offer more affordable care. But on Jan. 1, 2014, Insure Oklahoma will lose nearly two-thirds of its government funding when federal matching money stops, said Jo Kilgore, a spokeswoman for the state Health Care Authority. Said Weintz: "We're hoping that won't happen, but it is true that funding for that is in jeopardy." • An insured worker at a business with fewer than 25 employees can seek discounted coverage through an Affordable Care Act program. But the employers must meet certain criteria and do not have to participate. • People who earn between 100 percent and 400 percent of the poverty level can use tax credits to purchase coverage from the health exchange in 2014. The poorest of that group will pay no more than 2 percent of their income on premiums, as well as get a subsidy for other health costs. • The uninsured can continue seeking health care at hospital emergency rooms or free clinics around the state. In general, for Oklahoma parents and others in the "crater," the prospects for getting coverage look bleak, some health experts said. "Is help on the way?" said Robin Rudowitz, associate director of the Kaiser Commission on Medicaid and the Uninsured. "No … states that turned down the money (for expanded Medicaid) have now missed a major opportunity to help those who otherwise can't afford health insurance."

NORMAN — The tweet was sent by James Fraschilla on Saturday morning, the Oklahoma reserve using social media to speak for his team: "Gotta make a statement and take a big step in achieving our goals." The Sooners won't know about their NCAA tournament goals for several weeks, of course. But the step taken several hours later in a 77-68 victory over Oklahoma State seemed big. OU showed some real growth in starting fast and finishing strong against its most talented opponent to date. For more As for the Cowboys fail to statement?

"As soon as we stepped on the bus, I was getting excited for this game." The Sooners' took M'Baye's cue and came out amped. A Steven Pledger steal triggered a breakout, and Buddy Hield's layup followed for the day's first points. The Sooners struck again in transition for a Je'lon Hornbeak lay-in. Then Romero Osby beat Philip Jurick for a three-point play. The Sooners had a lead they would never give up. It grew to 32-18 on another Osby three-point play with 4:35 left in the first half.

OU hopes win has meaning come March
ORMAN — Don't look now — as the weather showed us Saturday, it's still only January — but maybe what Oklahoma showed over the last 9½ minutes of a 77-68 Bedlam victory over Oklahoma State was what the Sooners missed so much during the previous three seasons. Winning. More accurately, a will to win, and the maturity and composure to withstand a challenge, especially when a win starts to slip away. OU built a 14-point lead in the first half, stretched it back

to 14 early in the second half, then looked almost powerless as the Cowboys cut away, possession by possession, toward their first win in the Lloyd Noble Center since 2004. Only, O-State never got the lead. Never tied it. Got within 52-50, and that was it.
Oklahoma, instead of losing another lead and stumbling to another defeat, suddenly showed poise and retook control of the game. The Cowboys (11-4 overall, 1-2 in Big 12 play) have lost three of their last four, but beating a talented OSU team that just dropped out of the polls is no small feat for the Sooners. This goes down as OU's best victory since winning at Kansas State last season. Of course, that was a January game, too. What really counts for college basketball teams is an ability to finish the regular

SPORTS: FYI Hockey
NHL lockout ends, training camps set to open: The NHL's four-month lockout finally ended Saturday night following another tough negotiation that nearly delayed training camps even longer. The league and the players' association completed a required memorandum of understanding that had to be signed before camps were cleared to open. That will happen on Sunday with a 48-game regular season to begin on Jan. 19. The NHL also was set to release the long-awaited schedule, minus the 510 games that were lost to the lockout. It took all week and much longer than expected on Saturday for the memorandum to be completed. The announcement that it was finished came several hours after the union easily ratified the tentative deal reached last Sunday. The more than 700 union members had a 36-hour window from Thursday night until Saturday morning to vote electronically. The NHL board of governors unanimously approved the deal on Wednesday.

OU's Legesse breaks school record: OU senior Frezer
Legesse began the indoor track and field season by breaking the school record in the men's 1,000-meter run at the Nittany Lion Challenge in University Park, Pa., Saturday afternoon. The Oklahoma City native bested a 27-year-old record set by Tim Renihan in 1986 (2:23.3) when he crossed the finish line in 2:22.76 for third. Legesse shaved nearly two full seconds off his previous best time in the event (2:24.73), which stood fourth in the Oklahoma record books.

Struggling Mavericks won't trade Nowitzki Mark Cuban says he plans to keep star Dirk Nowitzki even though the Dallas Mavericks have their worst record since a few months after he bought the team in 2000. Cuban said before Saturday night's game against Memphis that he wanted to be clear with Nowitzki that he was committed "through thick and thin" to getting the team back in contention. Dallas recently fell 10 games under .500 for the first time since Nowitzki's second season in 19992000. The Mavericks won the title in 2011. — ASSOCIATED PRESS
Magic ends skid, beats Clippers BY BETH HARRIS Associated Press
LOS ANGELES — Two streaking teams going in opposite directions. The Clippers, co-owners of the NBA's best record and on a roll at home. The Magic, playing opponents close only to fall short while piling up the franchise's longest skid since the 2003-04 season. Something had to give, and this time, it was the Clippers. J.J. Redick gave Orlando its first lead of the game on a 3-pointer with 42 seconds left, Arron Afflalo tied his season high with 30 points, and the Magic won 104-101 on Saturday to snap a 10game skid. "It wasn't a letdown by us. Don't try to take anything away from them," Clippers
guard Chris Paul said. "They made tough shot after tough shot. J.J. Reddick had a hand in his face half the time." The loss ended the Clippers' franchise-record, 13game home-winning streak and provided them with a scare when All-Star Paul went down holding his right knee with 54 seconds to go. "It was real scary," Paul said. "I was looking up, trying to run down the ball, and J.J. Redick and I bumped knees." Paul returned after a timeout and hit a 15-footer to draw his team within one with 33 seconds left. But the Clippers turned the ball over on Jamal Crawford's offensive foul, with Redick drawing the charge. "I got the ball in transition and I thought I saw Matt (Barnes) over there,"
Crawford said. "I thought I made the right decision, but J.J. Redick guessed right. I thought he was going to rotate, so I faced it. When I put the ball down he stayed there, so lucky guess." Josh McRoberts found Nikola Vucevic open under the basket, and Vucevic dunked to extend Orlando's lead to 104-101 with 8 seconds left. After a timeout, Crawford missed a 3-pointer as time expired. The Clippers were 6 of 6 from the free throw line, and Orlando was 15 of 19. "That's unheard of," Paul said. "Blake (Griffin) takes 22 shots and no free throws. That's not typical for us." Griffin, a former Oklahoma star, tied his season-high with 30 points.

NFL NOTEBOOK Chiefs hire Packers' Dorsey as general manager: The Kansas City
Chiefs have hired longtime Packers personnel man John Dorsey to replace the fired Scott Pioli as their general manager. The Chiefs announced the hiring while the Packers were playing the San Francisco 49ers in the NFC playoffs on Saturday night. Dorsey will be introduced at a news conference Monday. Dorsey, who played linebacker for the Packers in the 1980s, was instrumental in building Green Bay into a perennial contender. He was the director of college scouting from 2000-12, and spent last year as the director of football operations. Dorsey also worked with new Chiefs coach Andy Reid from 1992-98, when Reid was an assistant coach for the Packers. Reid was hired to replace Romeo Crennel on Jan. 4.

"The NFL Today" that he has no plans to coach in the NFL, a few days after telling Newsday that he probably would come back at some point.

Cowher says he plans "on being with one team, and that is this team here at CBS. I know we are going to the Super Bowl."
last month against Baltimore. That raised questions whether Redskins coach Mike Shanahan should have let Griffin in either game after it was clear the quarterback was hurt. Goodell said it was a "medical decision" and noted Griffin had no problem with it, either. "Now, people can argue whether it was the wrong decision, but it was a medical decision and that's what we want it to be," Goodell said. "Will we make further changes? Yeah, I would anticipate we will. We'll always look at that and try to see what else we can do to make sure the proper medical attention is being given, that they make the best medical evaluation and it's their determination to make." Asked if independent doctors were needed on the sideline, not those chosen by the team, Goodell insisted the physicians were impartial. "When you say independent, all these doctors work for other institutions," he said. "And they're well-respected and the medical care in the NFL is
outstanding. And if they have a concussion, they have to see an independent neurologist before they're cleared to play."

Bradley is the eighth candidate interviewed since the Eagles fired Andy Reid on Dec. 31 following a 4-12 finish. The people spoke on condition of anonymity because the teams aren't commenting on the interview. Seattle plays the Falcons in a NFC divisional playoff game on Sunday. If Bradley is their guy, the Eagles can't officially hire him until the Seahawks are eliminated. "Well, it's flattering.

S.F. Austin hands ORU loss Stephen F. Austin 61, ORU 50
STEPHEN F AUSTIN (14-1, 5-0) Reb Min FG 3pt FT O-T F Pt.
World Sports Writer
Stephen F. Austin — solid in virtually every statistical category that counts — is the epitome of the team that doesn't beat itself. In order for the Lumberjacks to lose, somebody is going to have to (easier said than done) beat them. Oral Roberts wasn't up to the task. In a battle of programs picked to finish in the top two of the Southland Conference, Stephen F. Austin showed why it is the nation's top defensive team and flummoxed preseason favorite ORU 61-50 Saturday night. The Lumberjacks won a ninth consecutive game, improved to 14-1 and left the Mabee Center alone at the top of the Southland standings with a 5-0 league record. A victory would have given ORU (8-8, 3-1) sole possession of the conference lead. Instead, the Golden Eagles' 17-game winning streak in conference home games came to an end. "We got beat by a very good basketball team, a team that is playing with a tremendous amount of confidence and is extremely well-coached," ORU coach Scott Sutton said. "They've got tough, tough kids. Smart kids. And the bottom line is we didn't match their toughness tonight. We have six weeks to figure out how to get our guys a little bit toughened up and I have a lot of respect for how (the Lumberjacks) play the game and how they coach the game. I give them all the credit in the world. But our guys, again,
ORU NOTEBOOK More toughness needed: During a press conference following a 61-50 homecourt loss to Stephen F. Austin, Oral Roberts coach Scott Sutton suggested more than once that his team needed more toughness. For instance, Sutton said he wanted players to step up and take charges and the Golden Eagle who is best at that missed a fifth consecutive game. Junior forward Steven Roundtree was injured in a practice prior to a Dec. 28 game at Memphis and hasn't played since. Unfortunately, Roundtree is dealing with more than an

bottom line, didn't match their toughness." Stephen F. Austin coach Danny Kaspar perhaps has constructed the nation's most fundamentally sound midmajor hoops squad. Aside from allowing the fewest points per game in Division I, his Lumberjacks rank 28th nationally in field goal percentage, 15th in rebounding margin, 12th in assists, 24th in assist-to-turnover ratio, ninth in steals and seventh in turnover margin. And then there's this: The Lumberjacks are able to play constrictor defense without
fouling, ranking 16th in fewest fouls per game and committing only three first-half fouls while holding ORU to 38.5 shooting before halftime. Sutton continued to praise the way Stephen F. Austin does business, but he said his team (which finished with a .375 shooting percentage) did a poor job of being patient and getting the ball inside. When the Golden Eagles managed to get the ball inside, Sutton said they did a poor job of finishing shots. And he suggested it's all tied into showing not-enough-toughness under duress. You don't want to play catchup against a team that has held 47 consecutive opponents under 70 points, but ORU started the game 3-of-7 from the field, scored six points in the first 11 minutes and trailed by 12 points with seven minutes left in the first half. The Golden Eagles got as close as four, but the Lumberjacks bled the margin back to 15, sometimes burning a
significant chunk of the shot clock before cashing a basket. Redshirt freshman point guard D.J. Jackson, who led ORU with 13 points, said it's hard to come back on a team like that. He said Stephen F. Austin players made "incredible" shots with the clock winding down. ORU completed its first — and biggest — league homestand of the season with a split of two games. Sutton said the Golden Eagles and this week's opponents (Northwestern State and Stephen F. Austin) appear to be the teams with the best chance of winning the conference. Losing to one of them at home complicates the task of winning the league. He said ORU will get to play both of them on the road later this season, but "you certainly can't afford to stub your toe again and lose a game you shouldn't."
injury. The coach said Roundtree lost a grandfather the same day (Tuesday) that Patsy Sutton, mother of Scott Sutton and ORU assistant coach Sean Sutton, died. Scott Sutton said Roundtree will go home to attend the funeral and won't travel with the team to road games next week at Texas A&M-Corpus Christi and Sam Houston State. "We're hoping we get him back for the two games the following week," Sutton said, referring to a Jan. 24-26 homestand against Lamar and McNeese State. Regarding Roundtree's health
status, Sutton said Roundtree is "just not there yet." Coming home: Stephen F. Austin sophomore forward Jacob Parker is from Bixby. He scored a career-best 16 points and hit 7-of-10 shots in a victory at Tulsa earlier this season. He scored seven points and grabbed seven rebounds to help the Lumberjacks go 2-0 against the city's two Division I programs. Sutton name-dropped Parker without being asked about him. The coach was talking about how Stephen F. Austin has tough, smart players who don't try to do things they can't do. "Take Jacob Parker," Sutton said. "He's a great example.
Sutton said ORU looked at Parker a little bit during the recruiting process. Sutton complimented Stephen F. Austin coach Danny Kaspar for seeing something in Parker that fit the Lumberjacks' style of play. "He comes in there and he's a very, very effective player," Sutton said. "They've got a team full of those guys." Streak over: Stephen F. Austin ended ORU's 17-game homecourt winning streak against league opponents. The Lumberjacks became the first conference opponent to win at the Mabee Center since Oakland on Dec. 30, 2010. — JIMMIE TRAMEL, World Sports Writer

Oral Roberts, which leads the Southland Conference in field goal percentage and 3-point percentage, played out of character at the start of a 63-56 victory Saturday over Stephen F. Austin. Fortunately for the Golden Eagles, so did Jaci Bigham. The senior point guard leads the Southland Conference and ranks seventh nationally in assists. But, after ORU started 0-of-10 from the field, it was Bigham who broke the ice by

sinking a shot 14:30 before halftime. The Golden Eagles were 1-of-15 before making their second basket. That one was courtesy of Bigham, too. "Obviously a lot of teams in our conference know that's what I want to do is get the ball to my teammates, but we were not hitting," Bigham said after matching a seasonhigh with 17 points. So, she decided to take advantage of what the defense gave her, at least until teammates heated up. Bigham, who scored 13 of ORU's first 26 points, eventually got around to what she does best, finishing with 10 assists (she has 10 or more in each of the last four games) and quarterbacking an offense that had only seven turnovers.
Junior guard Christian Key, who matched a seasonhigh with 17 points in her previous game, scored a career-high 20 points and was 6-of-12 from 3-point range in the second game of a homestand as ORU improved to 6-8 overall and 3-1 in conference games. "My teammates are just getting me good looks," Key said. Bigham overheard Key and interjected this: "I think it's a little bit of Christian, too." ORU coach Misti Cussen wasn't worried about the early misses. She said she couldn't have been happier with her team's shot selection to start the game. "There was just a lid on the basket," she said. Or at least there was until Bigham pried it off. By
5:58 of the first half, she was 4-of-6 from the field and the rest of the Golden Eagles were 4-of-21. Perhaps it was a good omen that ORU still managed a 24-21 lead. The Golden Eagles shot 25 percent in the first half and led by a point. Porsha Roberts, who last season was named the Southland Conference's preseason freshman of the year, produced 16 points and 13 rebounds for Stephen F. Austin (6-10, 1-4). LaNesha Middleton, a freshman forward from Stillwater and the daughter of OSU's men's basketball assistant Steve Middleton, made her second start and first since the season opener.

"That is a really good victory for us because Oral Roberts is a very good team," said Stephen F. Austin coach Danny Kaspar. "They are a quality team with a lot of great basketball tradition. "I know Scott and Sean (Sutton) do a great job and I know this has been a really tough week for them. I have nothing but the most respect for the entire Sutton family." In three trips to Oklahoma this season, Stephen F. Austin is 3-0 (swept Oklahoma, Tulsa and Oral Roberts) and gave up just 146 points (48.6 per game). Lucky for Oklahoma State that the Lumberjacks won't be visiting Stillwater this winter. "Those are all great programs so we feel pretty fortunate to get those wins," said Kaspar. "This game was even more important because it was a league victory. "We've won five league games so far and three of them on the road. So, yes, I feel pretty good about where we are right now." We may not know where ORU fits into the Southland Conference but there's little question that Stephen F. Austin is at the top. "We got beat by a very good basketball team," said Sutton. "They've got tough, smart kids and we did not match their toughness. "We have six weeks to figure it out in our conference. It is still early in the league season." The Lumberjacks, as they did in a rout at Tulsa earlier this season, turned this into an easy road victory with defense. Oral Roberts scored just 29 points in the first 29 minutes of this game as SFA built a 10-point lead. ORU scored just 21 points in the first half. Stephen F. Austin has made a habit of taking teams out of their normal offense. So it was for the Golden Eagles, who never got into any kind of rhythm. As a result, ORU's streak of three straight victories to open the Southland Conference is over. Stephen F. Austin, at 5-0 and with a road victory at ORU, appears clearly in command of the conference chase. Stephen F. Austin leads the nation in scoring de-

OU women grind out win over Tech BY GUERIN EMIG
World Sports Writer
NORMAN — It was a grind for Oklahoma against Texas Tech Saturday night at the Lloyd Noble Center. But that's OK. When you're down to eight healthy scholarship players, you'll take wins however you can get them. Right now, the Sooners are getting them. OU's 65-55 victory over the Lady Raiders was number six in a row. The Sooners have climbed to 14-2 overall and 4-0 in the Big 12 Conference despite losing Whitney Hand and nearly an entire lineup to season-ending injury. They've won a few lately with precision and shotmaking. Saturday was more about toughness and defense. "Another really gritty performance by our kids," OU coach Sherri Coale said.

"This league is not for those who don't want to get hit," forward Joanna McFarland said. "It's physical every night." McFarland put up a roughand-tumble 14 points and 16 rebounds. She and center
Nicole Griffin (13 points and four rebounds) continue to be OU's sole sources of production inside. But that wasn't an issue Saturday. McFarland, in fact, nearly subdued Texas Tech by herself. All she needed was help from one teammate, and one stretch of smooth basketball. The stretch came four minutes into the second half with OU leading 32-31. McFarland scored an easy one out of the media timeout. McFarland poked away a pass for a steal, then finished a fast break on Morgan Hook's feed. Aaryn Ellenberg swished a 3. McFarland hit a top-of-the-key 3 off an inbound pass. Ellenberg scored off a drive. Nicole Griffin zipped a short jumper. The Sooners put together as much offense in four minutes as they did the other 36, and it helped open up a 48-36 lead. With less than four min-
utes remaining, OU was stuck on 52. Then Ellenberg shook loose for a straightaway 3, a hoop in transition and another swished 3. That pushed the lead to 60-48, and made her 26 points the key statistic of the game. Others included Tech's 9-of-20 foul shooting, 37 percent shooting from the field and 16 turnovers. It was not a pretty sight, watching the Lady Raiders drop to 12-4 overall and 2-2 in the Big 12. Ellenberg got her 26 while playing all 40 minutes. She didn't turn the ball over once. Point guard Morgan Hook played another 40. She bobbled it three times, but overcame with seven points, five assists and tireless defense. Like her teammtes, she did what was necessary. It has become a habit for such a shorthanded team. Guerin Emig 918-581-8355 firstname.lastname@example.com
fense at just 50 points per game. It is easy to see why. The Lumberjacks are absolutely suffocating. When ORU tried to go inside to Damon Bell-Holter, who has been on fire lately, he was swarmed. There were no easy shots on the perimeter where just about every jump shot was contested. SFA was all over ORU giving the Golden Eagles few easy buckets. "And, we missed a lot of easy shots," said Sutton. "That's toughness. When you maybe get bumped a little bit or something you still have to make those shots." The first half was especially strong by Stephen F. Austin. ORU scored just 21 points. It hit just 10 field goals (38 percent). The Eagles started the game by hitting just three of their first 12 shots. Just about the only things ORU did well in the first half was rebound (17-15 edge). Otherwise, Stephen F. Austin did to Oral Roberts what it has been doing to teams all year — forcing bad shots from the perimeter. ORU hit just 21 shots in the game (36 percent). Stephen F. Austin wasn't just another Southland game. SFA has won 14 of its first 15 games including road games at Tulsa (by 16) and Oklahoma. The Lumberjacks are inching ever closer to cracking the top 50 in the RPI. So, this game had even more significance for the Golden Eagles, trying to gain a foothold during a roller-coaster season. As usual, ORU played a wildly challenging December schedule including at Arizona, at Memphis and suffered big blown leads at home in losses to Oklahoma and Tulsa. However, the Golden Eagles had rebounded to opened the league by winning their first three games, including a two-game sweep on the road at Southeastern Louisiana and Nicholls State. Then, in its first Southland Conference game at home, ORU knocked Northwestern State out of a three-way tie at the top of the conference. Stephen F. Austin gave the Eagles a reality check.

Coming off a Big 12 win over No. 17 Kansas, the Cowgirls play at Texas, which has dropped five straight games. OSU has won eight of the last 13 meetings but has split the season series in each of the past five years. The Cowgirls are 3-14 in Austin, with the last win coming on Feb. 18, 2009. Three of OSU's players are among the Big 12's top 10 free-throw shooters, including first-place Liz Donohoe, who has 31 consecutive free throws. Lindsey Keller ranks sixth in the league and Tiffany Bias is 10th. In 11 of the Cowgirls' 12 wins, they have had at least four players score in double figures. They rank third in the country in scoring offense (82.6 points per game) and fourth in assists (19.1 per game). The Longhorns lead the conference in rebounding margin, averaging 13.1 more than their opponents. Nneka Enemkpali is first in the Big 12 with 10.6 rebounds per game. — KELLY HINES, World Sports Writer

OSU NOTEBOOK Hot shot: Oklahoma State did its homework on the Sooners, but the scouting report didn't include the ability to get hot from 3-point range. "We didn't expect them to make that many 3s," Cowboy guard Markel Brown said. "We didn't expect the certain players who made 3s to make them. "That hurt us, but we adjusted during the game and somehow we still weren't able to stop it." OU shot 61.5 percent from behind the arc, a season high. The
Tournament has seemed as far away as next Christmas. Of course, putting the Schooner in front of the ponies after a January rivalry win at home would be a mistake. This isn't a tournament team yet.

team entered the game hitting 31 percent of its 3-pointers. Road woes: The Cowboys dropped a second Big 12 road game this season and are 1-18 in conference road games in the past three years. "I think it's just a big mental approach coming up to a game on the road," forward Michael Cobbins said. "Basically you're on the court with yourself. "We're all that we've got, coming into a different atmosphere where everyone is against you instead of being at home where everybody is for
you. You've just got to stick together and everybody be on the same page and work it out." Four for Forte: Freshman sharp-shooter Phil Forte completed a four-point play at a key time in the first half and trimmed OU's advantage from 12 points to eight. He finished with 12 points and had three 3-pointers. "I thought he played well," coach Travis Ford said. "We needed his shots to go in, and he's a guy we count on to make shots. He was the guy that made them."
Quiet day for Smart: Because of foul trouble, Marcus Smart was held below his scoring average. He had 10 points, three steals, three assists and two rebounds. "Marcus Smart is a terrific player, and with any great player you have to give them a little extra attention," Sooner coach Lon Kruger said. "The guy that is on him has to work hard and we have to be ready to help in either direction."

down as a significant Bedlam triumph — but not yet. "We're a ways from that right now," Kruger said. "But obviously the tournament doesn't start today. We've got to do a lot of work yet. But this team has the potential to keep rolling and keep maturing, keep making better plays." They showed plenty of it late in the game on Saturday. OSU had erased most of the Sooners' big lead, cutting it to 52-47 on Le'Bryan Nash's driving basket with 11:11 to play. Then, after three
Cowboy free throws made it 52-50 with 9:34 left, the Sooners rose up. Senior Steven Pledger started an 18-7 run with a 3-pointer, then sank three free throws. Freshman Buddy Hield and junior Amath M'Baye added 3s over the next two minutes as the suddenly poised Sooners coolly rebuilt their lead to nine. M'Baye put it away with four minutes to go on a powerful dunk on an inbounds alleyoop pass from senior Sam Grooms that made it 70-57 and sent the crowd and the
Sooner bench into a fizz. "Seemed like we made shots at critical times," Kruger said. And it wasn't just shotmaking. After getting within five at the 11:11 mark, Oklahoma State went almost 7½ minutes without a field goal, missing six shots in a row. The Sooners were pulling away with shooting, defense and rebounding.

Jeff Withey and Travis Releford added 12 points each. Withey pulled down seven rebounds in the first Big 12 road game for Kansas. The Jayhawks (14-1, 2-0 Big 12) trailed briefly early on. They started the second half with a 12-0 run and stretched their lead as the game wore on. Jamal Williams scored 11 points to lead Texas Tech (86, 1-2) and Dejan Kravic added nine points and got eight rebounds.

BIG 12 ROUNDUP to go to preserve the Wildcats' 65-64 win over West Virginia on Saturday. "We fought too hard for that game," Southwell said. "We just needed to find a way to win." Southwell and Rodney McGruder had 17 points each for the Wildcats (13-2, 2-0 Big 12). For Southwell, it was a career high and marked only the second time in double figures over a stretch of a dozen games. Jabarie Hinds had a careerhigh 15 points for West Virginia, (8-7, 1-2). Iowa State 82, Texas 62: After opening Big 12 play with an excruciating loss, Iowa State returned home and ran circles around one of the nation's best defenses. Freshman Georges Niang scored a season-high 18 points on just seven shots, Will Clyburn added 16 points and Iowa State rolled past Texas
in its Big 12 home opener. Tyrus McGee had 15 points off the bench for the Cyclones (11-4, 1-1 Big 12), who bounced back from a heartbreaking loss at No. 6 Kansas by pounding the struggling Longhorns (8-8, 0-3). Baylor 51, TCU 40: Cory Jefferson had 15 points, including consecutive baskets to start Baylor's tiebreaking run, and the Bears beat TCU in the first meeting in more than 10 years between the instate rivals that are now Big 12 foes. Jefferson's floater with 15 minutes left broke a 28-all tie and put Baylor (11-4, 3-0 Big 12) ahead to stay. After a TCU (9-7, 0-3) miss, Jefferson had a shot blocked by Adrick McKinney, but Baylor's big forward got the ball right back and responded with a two-handed slam dunk. Pierre Jackson, Baylor's senior point guard, had 11 points and six assists. Charles Hill Jr. had 12 points to lead TCU.

Oklahoma State chopped it down to 38-29 by the break. OU rebuilt it to 45-31 with another hot start out of the locker room. The Sooners' only taste of adversity followed, thanks to a mini-Le'Bryan Nash burst midway through the second half. The OSU forward finally asserted himself and scored five quick points to bring his team within 52-50 with 9:34 remaining. OU answered that with Pledger's 3 over Nash, Pledger's three free throws thanks to Markel Brown's foul, and Hield's 3 off Pledger's set-up. The Cowboys chipped away with some free throws in the meantime, but went 7½ minutes between field goals (both by Nash). By the time M'Baye rose and flushed Sam Grooms' inbound pass with 4:05 to play, the Sooners had their cushion again, 70-57. OU was home safely at 11-3 overall and 2-0 in the Big 12 Conference. The Sooners now own a nine-game homecourt winning streak against OSU and a fourgame streak overall heading into Wednesday's home date with struggling Texas Tech. The Cowboys fell to 11-4 and 1-2. They haven't won in Norman for quite a while, and haven't won outside of Stillwater much this year.
OU NOTEBOOK Kruger OK with call on Clark:
Saturday's game hit a potential turning point with 12:43 remaining and Oklahoma ahead 50-43. Sooners forward Cameron Clark had the ball on his baseline about 15 feet from the basket, when he drove on Oklahoma State defender Le'Bryan Nash. Clark appeared to catch Nash's head while trying to start his move to the hoop, and Clark reeled back. The official closest to the play let action continue for a second or two, then blew his whistle. Officials then reviewed the play at a scorers table monitor and eventually tagged Clark with a two-shot flagrant foul. The Lloyd Noble Center howled as Phil Forte hit both free throws, but to hear OU coach Lon Kruger after the game, the call was correct. "Cam felt bad about it," he said, "but if you rip the ball across and your elbow gets above shoulder-high, that's just a rule. You can't do that. Cam understood." Forte had two good 3-point looks after his free throw, but missed both. When Romero Osby drove by Philip Jurick and scored, the Sooners kept their seven-point lead at 52-45.
A challenging early schedule — particularly losses to Gonzaga in Orlando and at Arkansas, and tight wins at Oral Roberts, against Texas A&M in Oklahoma City and last week in the Big 12 opener against West Virginia — "forced us to have to play with our backs to the wall," said senior Romero Osby. Then again, so did the last three seasons. The four se-

"There's some kind of spell on us," Brown figured of OSU's road woes. Saturday, actually, was more Sooners than magic. Osby took OSU's big men outside and shot over them en route to 17 points. M'Baye closed with 15 points. Hield contributed 15 points, five assists and four rebounds. Pledger made just two field goals, but still found his way to 11 points to go with nine rebounds. Brown led the Pokes with 19 points. Nash and Forte scored 12 apiece, while foultroubled freshman Marcus Smart scored 10 on 3-of-10 shooting. OSU went just 6-of-21 from 3-point range and shot 39 percent from the field overall. "Give OU credit," said Cowboys coach Travis Ford. "They made big shots when they needed them … We fought back, but when they needed it, they countered." That's a change from OU's last three teams. They're not wilting under pressure or in big moments, but pushing through. Saturday in front of a rare crowd at the Lloyd Noble Center (8,696) was one of those moments. "It was a lot different, more intense," Hield said. "It was a great experience." "It felt amazing," M'Baye said. "A great feeling, especially to win."

"Our guys responded to it well," Kruger said. "We weren't distracted by it." Triple threat: OU went 8-of-13 from 3-point range Saturday for a season-high 61.5 percent. Buddy Hield went 3-of-5. Je'lon Hornbeak was 2-of-2. Amath M'Baye made his only shot from distance, a swish from the corner that lifted the Sooners' lead to 66-57 with 5:25 remaining. Several of OU's triples, in fact, came at crucial times. Pledger's 3 over Nash pushed OU ahead 55-50 with 9:22 left. Hield's 3 made it 61-54 a few possessions later. The Sooners used the 3 to assert early control as well. Hield and Je'lon Hornbeak struck from deep as OU shot to a 13-5 lead before OSU could gather itself. Facts and figures: Osby scored a team-high 17 points, but his free-throw streak ended at 36 with a second-half miss. He was just one away from tying Nate Carter's OU record … Hield's three 3-pointers represented a career high, while M'Baye's 3 was the first of his OU career … The Sooners are 2-0 in the Big 12 for the first time since 2009, Blake Griffin's National Player of the Year season. That team started 11-0. — GUERIN EMIG, World Sports Writer
niors and three juniors who labored for three straight losing teams look hungry for success. "This group has potential," Kruger said. "I mean, they've got room to grow.

Tulsa's running game is appealing to Parker BY BILL HAISTEN
World Sports Writer
On Sept. 2 — the day after the University of Tulsa opened the 2012 football season with a loss at Iowa State — Jonathan Parker announced his commitment to the Golden Hurricane. A running back from Christian Brothers College High School in St. Louis, Parker chose TU over Northern Illinois (a program that was destined for an Orange Bowl appearance). "I liked Northern Illinois," Parker explained in September, "but I loved Tulsa." On Dec. 31, while watching the TU-Iowa State Liberty Bowl rematch, the 5-foot-10, 175-pound Parker was reminded of one of the reasons why he feels so secure with his TU decision — the Golden Hurricane's commitment to its ground game. During a third-quarter possession that began at the TU 24, the Hurricane offensive line demoralized the Iowa State defense. Trey
TU RECRUITING News of the week Undecided recruits: With 18 apparently
solid commitments, TU's 2013 class appears to be mostly finalized. Among undecided prospects who command attention are Kolton Shindelar, a phenomenally athletic tight end from Liberty, Mo.; and Gary Moore, who played tight end for Clarksville (Texas) High School but may be a big wide receiver at the college level. A veteran of only 11 games of varsity football, the 6-foot-5, 240-pound Shindelar was a tight end and a defensive end in high school. He says he prefers to play the tight end position. Shindelar told Scout.com that he received a scholarship offer from Missouri on Friday.
beat Rice 64-51. The Owls were scoreless during the final 4:49. During the same span, Harrison had a steal and a dunk to give TU a 55-51 lead. He followed with a perfectly lofted entry pass to forward Kauri Black, who converted on a layup. Harrison then swished four free throws. "That was a great four minutes," Harrison said. During the final 5:47, Tulsa outscored the Owls 17-2. Pat Swilling Jr. had 12 points as the Hurricane recorded its 13th consecutive victory over Rice. "Player of the game," Hurricane coach Danny Manning said of Harrison. "Shaq is a very talented basketball player. We put him on (Tamir Jackson) in the second half, and Jackson really hurt us in the first half. Shaq does a very good job on him defensively. Just a great game by him. He is becoming a premier defender for us." Now 10-7 overall and 2-1 in C-USA, the Hurricane had distinctly different success rates on free throws. During the first half, TU was 4-of-12. During the second half, TU made 20-of-23. Jackson scored 12 firsthalf points for Rice. Working against Harrison's defense
Watts ran for 4, 3 and 48 yards. The methodical drive continued with four more 4-yard gains — two by Alex Singleton, one by Watts and one by quarterback Cody Green. Singleton's 1-yard Parker dive resulted in the touchdown that gave Tulsa a 28-17 lead, and the Hurricane ultimately prevailed 31-17. By game's end, TU had 60 rushing attempts for 317 yards. With a 245.7-yard average, the Hurricane finished ninth nationally in rushing offense. "Oh, yeah — I saw what Tulsa did with their run game," Parker said. "I was loving the way they use their running backs." Recruited by Hurricane specialteams coordinator Scott Downing and running backs coach Dan Bitson, Parker led his Christian Brothers team to an undefeated regular season and a final record of 11-1. Scout reported this about Shindelar's status: "Right now, (Missouri's) biggest obstacle to landing Kolton Shindelar looks to be Tulsa." Shindelar is scheduled to visit the TU campus on Friday and follow with a trip to Missouri on Jan. 25. "Tulsa has recruiting me the longest and (was) first to offer me," Shindelar told Scout. "I have a relationship with the coaches and I am looking forward to my visit there. I am still getting to develop that same relationship with the Missouri coaches." At his size, Shindelar is a 200-meter sprinter and a hurdler for the Liberty track team. He has long-jumped nearly 23 feet. At 6-5 and 215 pounds, Moore reportedly has received offers from Tulsa, TCU, Texas-San Antonio, North Texas, Arkansas State, Missouri and Texas

Position watch: Safety Dexter McCoil, an all-conference selection and the TU program's career leader in interceptions, concluded his career in the Liberty Bowl. Marco Nelson will be a senior in 2013. The Golden Hurricane needs depth at safety, and there is one safety — Joe Bean of Class A Hooker High School — on TU's commitment list. The 6-foot-1, 195-pound Bean has legitimate 4.4 speed and is a star for the Hooker track team. Last year, he ran one of the legs of Hooker's state championship 4-by-400 relay team.

In most of Oklahoma, TU doesn't get enough recognition. "The TU campus is like its own little town in a huge city, and the football facilities to me are amazing. I want to surround myself with coaches who can drive me and make me a better player, and the TU coaches are unbelievable. I felt no negativity from any of the TU players. It just felt right. Everything felt right." — BILL HAISTEN, World Sports Writer

most of the game. We felt like we outplayed Tulsa in the first half and in a good portion of the second half. "The pressure of the game — the pressure of holding that lead — is something we are going to have to work at." Hurricane freshman guard James Woodard had a tough evening, scoring only two points while missing on all four of his 3-point shots and committing six turnovers. Scottie Haralson got only three field goal attempts, but he was efficient on free throws (7-of-8) and collected five rebounds. Haralson, Harrison and freshman forward Zeldric King were a combined 19-of23 at the foul line. Black was 2-of-8 on free throws. Otherwise, the 6-7 senior played well with 10 points and six
rebounds. Rice blitzed TU with a first-half barrage of 3-pointers. Treys by Seth Gearhart, Julian DeBose and Jackson highlighted a 14-0 Rice run. The Owls were good on eight of their first 10 tries from 3-point range. "A lot of that had to do with us playing poor defense," Black said. "... We let them get their confidence up by hitting uncontested shots." During the second half, Rice was only 3-of-11 on 3-pointers and added only three 2-point field goals. "Teams are going to make runs," Black said, "but eventually they're going to start missing shots when you've got a hand in their face." Bill Haisten 918-581-8397 firstname.lastname@example.com
Injury update: After missing two games because of a right-knee injury, University of Tulsa redshirt freshman Brandon Swannegan played two minutes during Saturday's 64-51 victory over Rice. Two other Hurricane forwards — freshman D'Andre Wright and sophomore Rashad Smith — did not play because of stress-type, lower-leg injuries. Wright now has missed five games. Smith has missed 13 games and may not play again this season. On Saturday, Wright was in uniform and did not wear a brace on his injured left leg. "It means the rehab is coming along," Hurricane coach Danny Manning said of Wright's status. "He's progressing, yes. He still hasn't practiced. "As long as he does what he's supposed to on the rehab side — and when the doctors give him the OK — we'll start getting him back in the mix." Against Rice, the 6-7 Swannegan made his only shot and grabbed one rebound. Manning said Swannegan may get more playing time on Wednesday, when TU hosts UTEP. "I just wanted to see how he would respond (in the Rice game)," Manning said. "He was good while he was out there. I just wanted to ease him back in slowly. We'll have to see what the doctors say. He's rounding back into shape. "We definitely need him back
N.C. State hands No. 1 Blue Devils first loss ASSOCIATED PRESS C.J. Leslie scored 25 points to help No. 20 North Carolina State beat No. 1 Duke 8476 on Saturday in Raleigh, N.C. Richard Howell added 16 points and 18 rebounds in a relentless performance for the Wolfpack (14-2, 3-0 Atlantic Coast Conference) in a matchup of the teams predicted to finish 1-2 in the league. N.C. State was picked for the first time in nearly four decades to win the league, though two early losses drained some buzz. No longer. Now N.C. State is back on everyone's radar, while the Blue Devils (15-1, 2-1) are no longer unbeaten. No. 3 Louisville 64, South Florida 38: Peyton Siva scored 17 points and Louisville held South Florida to a season-low 27 percent shooting for an easy victory. Center Gorgui Dieng added 12 points and 16 rebounds while forward Chane Behanan had 12 rebounds and seven points for the Cardinals (15-1, 3-0 Big East), who won their
MEN'S TOP 25 ROUNDUP 10th in a row. Behanan played just five days after injuring his left ankle in practice and missing Wednesday's victory against Seton Hall. No. 4 Arizona 80, Oregon St. 70: Solomon Hill had 16 points, including five 3-pointers, to help the No. 4 Wildcats bounce back from their first loss of the season with a victory over Oregon State. The Wildcats (15-1, 3-1 Pac12) were coming off a 70-66 defeat Thursday night just down the road against the Oregon Ducks. The Beavers (10-6, 0-3), who trailed by as many as 17 points in the second half, didn't give the Wildcats much trouble. No. 5 Indiana 88, No. 8 Minnesota 81: Victor Oladipo had 20 points and six rebounds and Jordan Hulls knocked down four 3-pointers, helping Indiana hold off Minnesota's late charge. The Hoosiers (15-1, 3-0 Big Ten) have won six straight
overall and 18 in a row at Assembly Hall. Minnesota (15-2, 3-1) was led by Andre Hollins with 25 points but had its 11-game winning streak snapped despite rallying from 23 points down at halftime to within 3 with 19.5 seconds left. Minnesota rallied with a 19-7 run in the final four minutes, getting as close as 84-81 but never had a chance to tie the score. No. 7 Syracuse 72, Villanova 61: C.J. Fair had 22 points, Trevor Cooney hit a pair of 3-pointers to punctuate a late surge and Syracuse beat Villanova. Syracuse (16-1, 4-0 Big East) has won 34 straight home games, the longest active streak in the nation in Division I. Villanova (11-5, 2-1) had its seven-game winning streak snapped. Mississippi 64, No. 10 Missouri 49: Murphy Holloway scored 22 points, Jarvis Summers added 12 and Mississippi cruised to a victory over No. 10 Missouri. Ole Miss (13-2, 2-0 Southeastern Conference) led the entire game, jumping out to
an early 9-0 lead thanks to timely shooting and superior defense. Holloway was nearly unstoppable in the paint, making 8 of 12 shots from the field and 6 of 10 free throws. Jabari Brown led Missouri (12-3, 1-1) with 13 points. No. 11 Florida 74, LSU 52: Kenny Boynton scored 20 points and Florida used a 31-6 run across the halves to rout LSU. Patric Young had 14 points for the Gators (12-2, 2-0 SEC). Boynton's perimeter shooting and Young's interior play were instrumental in Florida controlling the offensive end. The Tigers (9-4, 0-2) stuck around well into the first half before Florida broke a 19-all tie with a 10-1 run to end the half. Wisconsin 74, No. 12 Illinois 51: Jared Berggren scored 15 points and grabbed a season-high 12 rebounds, and Traevon Jackson added a career-best 14 points to lead Wisconsin over Illinois. The Badgers (12-4, 3-0 Big Ten) scored the game's first 14 points and led by 20 at halftime on the way to their sixth straight win.
It was a stunning performance from a team that scored just 47 in the previous game against Nebraska, but a supposedly slow and methodical team locked into a higher gear and ended the suspense almost as soon as the game began. No. 14 Butler 79, Dayton 73: Roosevelt Jones scored 16 points and Butler extended its best start in four years beating Dayton for its 11th straight victory despite losing its top scorer to injury. The Bulldogs (14-2, 2-0 Atlantic 10) lost guard Rotnei Clarke, who hit the padded backboard support hard after an intentional foul at 8:13 at the first half and was taken off the court on a stretcher. He was moving his legs and gave a thumbs-up sign as he left the court. The Bulldogs' depth pulled them through against Dayton (10-6, 0-2), which has lost four of its last six and fell to 7-3 on its home court. The Bulldogs are off to their best start since they won 19 of their first 20 games during the 2008-09 season.

out on the court because he's so active in blocking shots and altering shots." Rice's hot start: On Saturday, Rice stunned the Hurricane by converting on eight of its first 10 shots from 3-point range. Manning was reminded of an August exhibition, when TU was defeated by an A-Game Hoops team in Toronto. In that game — a 102-92 Hurricane loss — the A-Game Hoops squad finished with 22 3-point baskets. While watching red-hot Rice during Saturday's opening half, "I was thinking, 'I hope this isn't another A-Game Hoops night,' " Manning said. "But we did a better job of contesting shots (during the second half)." After Rice staggered TU with a 14-0 run, Pat Swilling Jr. answered for the Hurricane by connecting on a pair of NBArange 3-pointers. WOMEN'S BASKETBALL

No changes: The news of Oklahoma State's coaching change – removing Bill Young as defensive coordinator and replacing him with Glenn Spencer – hasn't resulted in any commitment changes for the Cowboys. In addition to overseeing the defense, Young coached the defensive line. Defensive ends Naim Mustafaa and Sam Wren enrolled at semester, and tackles Vincent Taylor and Ben Hughes remain committed to OSU. Mustafaa's enrollment was announced Monday. The Georgia native comes from a family of athletes, including his father, Najee, who played seven seasons in the NFL and was a teammate of Spencer's at Georgia Tech. "Naim is a big-time defensive end who can rush the passer and is very athletic," Spencer said in a news release. "He has a very high motor and is a competitor. He uses his hands very well. He is a quiet person by nature, but he turns it up when he's on the field." Familiar name: Class of 2014 quarterback Bear Fenimore is among those invited to OSU's upcoming Junior Day. A 6-foot-1, 224-pound prospect from Austin (Texas) Westwood, Fenimore doesn't have a major-college offer but is drawing interest from Alabama, LSU, Texas A&M and others, according to Rivals.com. Fenimore, who attended last season's win against TCU in Stillwater, was asked on Twitter last week whether he is related to former Cowboy legend
Bob Fenimore, the program's first AllAmerican. "For the Oklahoma State fans, research has confirmed that I am related to Bob Fenimore," he responded. "We are distant cousins."
Signing day countdown OSU has received verbal commitments from 20 players, and among those are two junior-college transfers who have signed. Additionally, Mustafaa has enrolled. The remaining commitments are non-binding. Recruits can sign a letter of intent starting Feb. 6.
The rankings Rivals 22nd, Scout 18th, ESPN 25th
Position watch: Running back With Joseph Randle announcing he will declare early for the NFL Draft, OSU could be on the prowl for another running back for the Class of 2013. No. 2 back Jeremy Smith will be a senior next year, and the Cowboys also have Desmond Roland, a junior-to-be, and Caleb Muncrief, a sophomore, on the roster. The only running back who has pledged to OSU for 2013 is Corion Webster, a 5-11, 190-pound prospect from Atlanta, Texas. After Randle's announcement, coaches went after Houston Cypress Ridge tailback Rennie Childs, extending a scholarship offer Thursday, according to GoPokes.com. — KELLY HINES, World Sports Writer

Bloomington rallies for victory over Oilers BY KEVIN HENRY
World Correspondent
One night after snapping a 12-game road losing skid, the Tulsa Oilers returned to the BOK Center hoping to end a season-long streak of futility against the Bloomington Blaze. The visitors, however, used a flurry of goals to put an end to Tulsa's momentum. Bloomington scored three goals in the second period, including two in a 28-second span, as the Blaze remained unbeaten against Tulsa on the season with a 4-2 decision in Central Hockey League action on Saturday night before a crowd of 5,316. Bloomington (19-15-1) is now 4-0-1 versus the Oilers this season and sent Tulsa (10-23-3) to 2-7-1 over its last
10 outings. After a scoreless first period, Bloomington's Kyle Bochek got his team on the scoreboard with a rebound shot that he sent into the goal about the same time he crashed into the net. After reviewing the play, the officials let it stand and the Blaze held a 1-0 lead with 13:27 left in the period. A little less than nine minutes later, Bloomington would score twice in 28 seconds to take control of the contest. The Blaze increased the lead to 2-0 as Nicklas Lindberg blasted a shot into the upper left corner of the net with 4:58 left in the period, then Tyler Gron notched his 21st goal of the season with a breakaway goal to quickly push the Blaze ad-
Bloomington would then finvantage to 3-0.

Welcome: Oklahoma rolled out the welcome mat for visitors to campus over the weekend, and the Sooners got a verbal commitment out of it. Charles Walker, a 6-foot-4, 280-pounder from South Garland (Texas) High School, made his pledge to the Sooners public on Twitter on Saturday night. Walker hadn't been hit hard by schools (North Texas, Houston and New Mexico are on his list), and his addition will help the Sooners to fill defensive tackle spots. OU also needs to fill up with linebackers and another offensive tackle. Evaluating can be tough: Often times, Oklahoma's first contact with a potential recruit is during one of its camps. In years past, it could be a two- or

three-day visit. These days, it mainly is a one-day stop. "Yeah, it's just hard to get kids, as you know, for two and three days now," OU coach Bob Stoops said. "They've gotta move, they've gotta get to all these camps and they only have time for one. Or finances. It's just really hard to get two, three days with a kid now." The OU coach said it can be hard to get a great evaluation on prospects. "We spend a lot of time in schools trying to evaluate and gather information," Stoops said. "What's he really like? It's just tough to have the time to make a great evaluation. We do like them to come in the summer to camps as much as possible. To me, in particular, too when they're freshmen and sophomores. "It's where you can really get a jump
if you like some sophomores and you can start communicating with them and getting them to games." Getting along: Stoops said he believes it's important for his coaching staff to relate well to recruits. His staff also understands that they are dealing with a number of personalities when looking at prospective players. "All guys are different, but (if) a guy doesn't want to relate to you, he's probably not going to," Stoops said. "Usually, we feel we're pretty good guys and can relate to people pretty well."
the event earlier last week. The reason why? Bob Stoops said during a media availability that it would stretch the coaching staff thin. It already is a busy recruiting weekend with Class of 2013 players. Stoops added that there are plenty of weekends in the future where juniors could be brought to campus.
Signing day countdown
The Sooners lost a key commitment when linebacker Jordan Mastrogiovanni changed his pledge from the Sooners to Texas A&M just 72 hours after the Ag-
gies dominated OU in the Cotton Bowl. Mastrogiovanni, a 6-foot-3, 225-pound linebacker, was considered the Sooners' top linebacker recruit. Oklahoma's top linebacker recruit is now Jordan Evans, a 6-3, 205-pounder from Norman North. Booker T. Washington commit Dominique Alexander (6-0, 190) doesn't have linebacker size, but could he be developed into one? The spot will be handled by senior Corey Nelson, junior Aaron Franklin and freshman Frank Shannon next season. But depth will need to be recruited at this position, especially with the early departure of Tom Wort. This position wasn't a huge point of emphasis. But after Mastrogiovanni's loss, it could be considered one now. — ERIC BAILEY, World Sports Writer

the final round. They each have a chance to become the first rookies to win in their PGA Tour debut since Garrett Willis in the 2001 Tucson Open. The rookies have ruled along the shores of Oahu, and if not for Clark, it would have been even more pronounced. Clark made a birdie on the
last hole that put him into the final group. Otherwise, that spot would have been occupied by Scott Gardiner of Australia, who had a 64 and was four shots behind. Former Oklahoma State standout Charles Howell III, twice a runner-up at the Sony Open, had a 67 and also was four behind. Seven players were within five shots of the lead, which included Monday qualifier Danny Lee and Pat Perez, whose goal to have a more positive attitude was severely tested on the final hole when he missed a 40-inch birdie putt. Perez still had a 67 and was at 12-under 198. Henley and Langley shared low amateur honors at Pebble Beach in the 2010 U.S. Open, and then became fast friends by flying together to Northern Ireland for the Palmer Cup. They were thrilled to be playing together for their rookie debut in the opening two rounds. Neither had any idea they would still be together going into the final round. Nobody has been able to catch them. Langley was two shots behind until a two-putt birdie on the ninth and a short
birdie putt on the 10th to tie for the lead. He pulled ahead with a 12-foot birdie putt on the 13th, and after a threeputt bogey, regained the lead with a 15-foot birdie putt on the 15th. Those expecting to see the rookies get stage fright in the final group on the weekend quickly learned that these aren't ordinary rookies — at least not on Saturday. Both played with remarkable poise and kept this Sony Open a two-man show. Except for John Daly, of course, who always manages to keep it interesting. The former Arkansas standout pulled his tee shot into the hill on the sixth hole, hit a rock and hurt his shoulder. He made triple bogey, took four shots from 20 feet on the next hole for double bogey, made another triple bogey on the eighth and then holed a 50-foot birdie for a 45 on the front nine. That gave him a 79. A far more subtle meltdown belonged to Chris Kirk. He was two shots out of the lead when he hit a tee shot into the canal, his next shot out of bounds and made a 20-foot putt to escape with a triple bogey.
Serena Williams set for another big year Los Angeles Times (MCT)
Can Serena Williams win a calendar-year Grand Slam? Where's Rafael Nadal, and when will he be back? As the 2013 tennis season begins in earnest Sunday (Monday in Melbourne) at the Australian Open, we know that Nadal is not back. He has withdrawn from the first major of the year, as he did from the Olympics and the U.S. Open last year, saying his knee tendinitis has now been trumped by a stomach virus. Williams, though, seems in the best shape of her career and is still on the high of winning Wimbledon, the Olympics and the U.S. Open.

Rookies roll again in Hawaii HONOLULU — PGA Tour rookies Russell Henley and Scott Langley get to play one more round together at the Sony Open, this time with a lot more on the line. Henley two-putted from 30 feet for birdie on the last hole Saturday for a 3-under 67, allowing him to catch up to Langley, who had to settle for a par and a 65. They broke the tournament scorrecord through PGA ing 54 holes at 17-under 193. Better yet, they had a threeshot lead over Tim Clark. At stake on Sunday is a trophy, the customary lei draped around the neck and an invitation to the Masters. If the third round was any indication, Clark and everyone will have to chase them down. The 23-year-old rookies never flinched on a warm afternoon with only a mild breeze on a Waialae Country Club that was ripe for low scores. Langley made seven birdies to offset a pair of bogeys. Henley has been more steady, and he carries a streak of 43 holes without a bogey into

AUSTRALIAN OPEN She is not the defending champion in Melbourne. That honor belongs to topseeded Victoria Azarenka, but it's hard for anybody to pick against Williams. Justin Gimelstob, who will do commentary for the Tennis Channel, says, "It seems like Serena is becoming much more aware of history, and with that is becoming more focused, fit and spends time and energy with her tennis now." Lindsay Davenport, a partner with Gimelstob on the Tennis Channel, said it will be difficult for the 31-yearold Williams to sweep the four major events this year. "But it's just as difficult to pick against her if she stays healthy," Davenport said of the third-seeded player. Chris Evert, who will be working for ESPN2, said of Williams and the possibil-
ity of a slam: "She's got the motivation, no doubt about it. If her health stays good, she's unbeatable. But in this day and age, and we've seen it with Nadal, it's the health. There are no easy matches. Do I think it will happen? I have my doubts because she's human. But at the moment, she's a level or two above the opposition." On the men's side, topseeded and two-time defending champion Novak Djokovic is the favorite. Second-seeded Roger Federer, who is also 31, can suffer in the heat, which has been over 110 degrees the last week. Andy Murray, seeded third, goes to Melbourne now with the belief he can win big tournaments. "What I did at the end of last year, it meant a lot to my confidence," said Murray, who won the Olympics and his first Grand Slam tourna-
ment, the U.S. Open. Darren Cahill, the Australian commentator for ESPN2, predicts that Murray will win another major this year, that Nadal will be focused for the French Open and, "Never count Federer out. But you can never bet against Djokovic on a hard surface, so I like his chances here. "But here in 2013, we might start seeing some of the future. Milos Raonic, Bernard Tomic, Ryan Harrison, among others. Young guys will start coming through." John Isner, who would have been the highest-seeded American man, withdrew from the tournament with a bone bruise in his right knee, leaving 22nd-seeded Sam Querrey as the highestranked American man. The tournament will be televised on ESPN2 and the Tennis Channel beginning Monday.

Armstrong will answer 'honestly' during Oprah talk BY JIM VERTUNO Associated Press
AUSTIN, Texas — Lance Armstrong said he will answer questions "directly, honestly and candidly" during an interview with Oprah Winfrey next week. He will also apologize and make a limited confession to using performance-enhancing drugs, according to a person with knowledge of the situation. Armstrong has spent more than a decade denying that he doped to win the Tour de France seven times. Without saying whether he would confess or apologize during the taping, Armstrong told The Associated Press in a text message early Saturday, "I told her (Winfrey) to go wherever she wants and I'll answer the questions directly, honestly and candidly. That's all I can say." A confession would be a stunning reversal for Armstrong after years of public statements, interviews and court battles from Austin to Europe in which he denied doping and zealously protected his reputation. Armstrong was stripped of his titles and banned from the sport for life last year after the U.S. Anti-Doping agency issued a detailed report accusing him of leading a sophisticated and brazen drug program on his U.S. Postal Service teams that included steroids, blood boosters and a range of performance-enhancing drugs. Armstrong's interview with Winfrey is not expected to go into great detail about specific allegations levied in the more than 1,000-page USADA report. But Armstrong will make a general confession and apologize, according to the person, who requested anonymity because there was no authorization to speak publicly. Armstrong hasn't responded to the USADA report or being stripped of his Tour de France titles. But shortly afterward, he tweeted a picture of himself on a couch at home with all seven of the
yellow leader's jerseys on display in a room at his home in Austin. He also agreed to be interviewed there, in what the Oprah Winfrey Network announced would be a "noholds barred" session. That's scheduled to be taped Monday and broadcast Thursday night. "His reputation is in crisis," said crisis management expert Mike Paul, president of New York-based, MGP & Associates PR. "Most people don't trust what comes out of his mouth. He has to be truly repentant and humble." He also has to be careful. Armstrong is facing legal challenges on several fronts, including a federal whistleblower lawsuit brought by former teammate Floyd Landis, who himself was stripped of the 2006 Tour de France title, accusing him of defrauding the U.S. Postal Service. The U.S. Justice Department has yet to announce whether it will join the case. The London-based Sunday Times is also suing Armstrong to recover about $500,000 it paid him to settle a libel lawsuit, and Dallas-based SCA Promotions has threatened to bring yet another lawsuit against Armstrong to recover more than $7.5 million an arbitration panel awarded him as a bonus for winning the Tour de France. The only lawsuit potentially impacted by a confession might be the Sunday Times case. Potential perjury charges stemming from his sworn testimony in the 2005 arbitration fight would not apply because of the statute of limitations. Armstrong was not deposed during a federal investigation that was closed last year without charges being brought. However, he lost most of his personal endorsements — worth tens of millions of dollars — after USADA issued its report and he left the board of the Livestrong cancerfighting charity he founded in 1997. He is still said to be worth an estimated $100 million.

with Jack Morris If you have noticed coyotes along some of the highways lately — both alive and killed by traffic — you know that the wild canines are becoming more active with their mating season fast approaching. Predator hunting is quickly growing in popularity, and those who try it will understand why. It requires stealth and careful tactics. Hunters need to keep track of the wind direction to make the right approach. Coyotes might come on a dead run to a call and be in your lap before you know it, which is exciting, but don't mistake stories of willing predators for some idea they are not wary. They have excellent eyesight and a keen sense of smell. Novice predator hunters might want to start with electronic calls, which are legal for use in Oklahoma. A wide variety of models are available. Mouth calls come in a variety of options, many of which can produce a variety of sounds. They are no harder to master than any other sort of game call for those who want to practice and learn. Start simply. I have at times called in coyotes by doing nothing more than making a squeaking kiss sound with my mouth on my hand. When hunting coyotes, I like to back up to a creek or some other barrier, if possible, that can prevent a coyote from circling around behind me. Ridges and hilltops can offer a good overview to see a lot of country, but it's best to set up just below the rise so you don't silhouette yourself against the horizon. When preparing to hunt an area consider several spots and approaches given the wind direction. Call for 10 to 15 minutes in an area and, if it feels right, give a careful look around and move to the next spot. Most predator hunters don't give too much time to one spot. Knowing when to move is just a matter of experience, and maybe luck. Just about anyone who has hunted predators can tell you they were busted by a wily dog just as they decided to get up and move. Jack Morris is a professional guide and host of Outdoor Trails at 6 p.m. Thursdays on KTBZ am1430. Contact him at 918-691-3840, jackswildlife@cox. net or see tulsaworld.com/jackmorris.

Going vertical
Bass-catching technique works in Missouri
HE BOTTOM of a lake in January, 50 feet down, even if the water is clear as that of Table Rock Lake, seems a dark, impossible, foreboding place. To longtime Missouri angler and guide Tim Sainato it just happens to be where the bass spend their winters at his home lake. "We could go and fish the rocks shallower, closer to shore and I'm sure we could find some fish, but this is the place to catch them," he said last Sunday as we trolled into a brisk wind on that 40-degree morning. "This is really my favorite way to fish." Most anglers don't get into this fishing mode simply because they lack the confidence that it will work, Kelly Sainato said. "I tell Bostian people it's just about two boat lengths, that's Outdoors all, and when they can kelly.bostian visualize that it helps. @tulsaworld.com They think, 'OK, it's 918-581-8357 not that far.' " Grand Lake guide TULSAWORLD.COM Ivan Martin invited Additional me to join him and his friend on Table Rock instruction for a look at Sainand video ato's vertical fishing Learn more about technique for winter this fishing techbass. The Branson, nique and watch Mo., area is just about some fishing aca two-hour drive from tion in a video at Grove, so Martin has enjoyed a few day trips tulsaworld.com/ to the lake to fish with outdoors Sainato this winter. Mixed bags of spotted, black and smallmouth bass await those who figure out how to probe the depths of Table Rock for schooled bass. "It's not something that would work on Grand," Martin said. "It's the wrong kind of lake." That's not to say largemouth bass aren't caught with vertical fishing techniques on Grand Lake in winter, especially around brush piles. But finding them 50 feet down on a relatively flat substrate? No. Not hardly. The Grand Lake guide said he believes Table Rock's relatively clear water is what allows the fish to move deep for the right water temperatures and oxygen levels. Sainato's fishing technique is part presentation, part hunting, part video game. He cruises into coves and follows the low valleys and old creek channels closely watching the screen of his Lowrance LCX-112c sonar. It's an older model, but it suits his needs. He can read it and describe what's happening as if he's looking right at the fish. "I'll see if I can get one to raise his head," Sainato said, looking at a sonar

screen that appeared empty, save the thick smooth line that represented the bottom of the lake. I asked if he knew what the substrate was like, if it was muddy or rock. "It's just like that up there," he said, pointing to the wide beach of golf-ball to baseball-sized rock exposed by the currently low lake level. "You don't always see them," he said of the fish. "They hug the bottom. I mean they are right down there — flat." On Sunday, Sainto used a drop-shot finesse rig with a 4-inch purple worm to hook several spotted bass for the camera. Sometimes he uses a half-ounce Rapala Jigging Rap, sometimes a Blakemore Road Runner spinner jig. He dropped the rig, watching it onscreen as it fell, and he searched for bass. With the finesse rig he might entice the bass by lightly jiggling the rod tip to give the worm a little extra action. Sometimes he raises it a few feet and lets it drop. "That worm is always moving anyway," he said. "You can't hold it still if you try." Often the action begins with just one streak on the screen, but stirring one fish may bring an entire school to life. "A lot
BIRD WATCH Most warblers spend the winter well south of Oklahoma, but not pine warblers. They can be seen yearround, mostly in the southeastern part of the state, but occasionally at bird feeders during winter as far north as the Tulsa area.

of times you get into them and it fills up with streaks everywhere," he said. "That's the thing. You have to look for them, but once you find them you're usually into a bunch of them." He has had clients who have simply enjoyed watching the screen to see what the fish look like on the sonar and how it all comes together. "You'll see them, even if they're just moving away from it," he said. "Worming up" is the term he uses for bass that appear on the sonar as dark-blue streaks and lines above the substrate. Sainato narrated the action below as he watched his bait Sunday. "Here we go," he said. "Come on up, come on, there you go, here he is, yep!" He set the hook and reeled in a beefy 16-inch spotted bass. "It's a great time of year, and this really is one of my favorite ways to catch bass," he said. It's his favorite way and apparently an effective way. Contact Sainato at 417-335-0037 or see tulsaworld.com/timsainato.

Fort Gibson girls, boys win BY JOHN D. FERGUSON World Correspondent
Ricky Stenhouse Jr. donated an autographed uniform in honor of Donnie Ray Crawford for a silent auction at this year's Chili Bowl. CORY YOUNG/Tulsa World
The Chili Bowl 'A' Main did not end in time to be included in Sunday's edition. See Monday's edition for details and results of the feature.
Other activities included the sale of T-shirts by the Hard Eight racing team for which Donnie Ray was driving at the time of his death. Also, a bean bag tournament was held, with the proceeds given to the foundation. Saturday night's A feature ran 55 laps instead of 50 in honor of Donnie Ray. Fiftyfive was his car number. Donnie Ray will not be forgotten. Everyone that met Donnie Ray feels much like Lewis. "I feel so fortunate to be as close to him as I was," Lewis said. This is their way of giving back.

father, Donald Ray "Donnie" Crawford II. Prosecutors decided after several months not to file charges against Crawford II, said Jack Thorp, Wagoner County's first assistant district attorney. "Basically, it was clear that it was justified," Thorp said. "Everything seemed to check out and the stories that were given to law enforcement by the witnesses and individuals at the scene appeared to be corroborated by the physical evidence." The case, however, was unusual, and "definitely warranted a much longer investigation than would normally occur," he added. Much has occurred to remember Donnie Ray since that day. The family set up the Donnie Ray Crawford Scholarship Fund and a memorial race was held at Port City Raceway last August that reportedly raised $47,000 through donations, an auction and T-shirt sales. Now a year later, Chili Bowl fans and participants have not forgotten the thirdgeneration driver. The Donnie Ray Crawford Foundation had a booth at the Chili Bowl where a silent auction was held and T-shirts were sold, with the proceeds going to the DRC fund. Long-time family friend Stuart Lewis spent the week overseeing the booth's operation and recalls his association with Donnie Ray, dad Donnie and grandfather Ray. "I was a fan of Ray's, raced against Donnie and worked on his cars when he started racing super modifieds in '84," recalled Lewis. The booth has been wellreceived, and Lewis has met many people who have happy stories to tell of their conversations with Donnie Ray. "This has been very wellreceived," Lewis said of the auction. "It is amazing the people he touched in such a short time. "We had one gentleman come up that had met him on that Friday evening and talked with him for less than 30 minutes, and he came back this year just to get memorabilia." One of the most interesting items in the booth is a uniform that NASCAR Nationwide champion Ricky Stenhouse Jr. wore this past season. Stenhouse put a DRC patch on his uniform in honor of Crawford, and after his first victory early in the season, Stenhouse paid tribute in a televised post-race interview. Stenhouse donated the suit, and it was raffled off Saturday night. Also in the booth is a painted helmet donated by Harli White of Lindsay. White was pulled from a burning race car in 2008 by Crawford and she has been close to the family ever since. "It is a memorial helmet for Donnie Ray," said White. "I designed it last February and had it painted. I wore it at the Donnie Ray Crawford memorial. I am going to give it to Jodie Crawford to keep."

OOLOGAH — Brooke Palmer was Fort Gibson's escape artist. Palmer found ways to get open and score 15 points to lead the unbeaten Tigers over Oologah 43-38 in the girls bracket championship of the Oologah Tournament Saturday night. A crowd of 500 watched Fort Gibson move to 12-0 and capture the second tournament title of the season. The Tigers won the Inola Tournament in December. Palmer was instrumental in both tournament finals and had a simple reason for it. "I just get open when nobody else gets open," said Palmer, who was selected as the tournament's MVP. "I try and relieve the pressure (on the team)." "The first half, I did pret-
Oologah rallied)." Oologah (10-3) fell behind by double-digits twice and forged comebacks that got close, but never retook the lead. Brinley Evans tallied a game-high 18 points and 13 rebounds for the Mustangs. Taylor McElhaney added nine points and nine rebounds. Evans and McElhaney also made the All-Tournament squad. Fort Gibson's Savannah Gray, who had nine points and three assists, also made All-Tournament as did Catoosa's Kayla Jones and Claremore Sequoyah's Aubryana Matussak. Fort Gibson 60, Inola 50 (boys): The 10-2 Tigers made it a clean sweep in the boys championship game. Jordan Hill led Fort Gibson with 32 points and four assists.
