A change in Kansas law has moved local elections — such as those held for city officials and school board members — from spring to fall. A number of such positions are up for re-election in this area. Two positions on the Sabetha City Commission are up for re- election: Mayor and Commis- sioner of Finance. Doug Clark currently holds the position of Mayor. Clark says he plans to run for re- election. Maridel Wittmer currently holds the Commissioner of Finance position. The Herald was unable to reach Wittmer regarding whether she plans to run for re-election.

LETTERS The Lobos need our help Dear Editor, The Sabetha Lobos, a collegiate summer team, will be back and call Sabetha home for a second consecutive year. The Lobos will compete in the Mid Plains League which contains teams such as the Junction City Brigade, the Rossville Rattlers, the Topeka Golden Giants, the Baldwin City Blues and three teams from Missouri. The Lobos finished second in the west division in 2016 in their inaugural season. You can find much more information about the league at Midplainsleague.com. The manager, Harvey Pena, will carry a roster of about 30 players. While we do not know exactly who will be on the roster, we do know they will need host families for the sum- mer. Host families make it possible for these players to come to Sabetha to play. The Lobos will play about 15-17 home games and about that many on the road. Come out to Somerset Park to watch. They play the game well and are entertaining to watch. If you are anxious about opening up your home, just re- member, these young men are just as anxious about coming to Sabetha. They are just looking for a place where they can fit in. If you are interested and have accommodations for one of two of these players, please send me an email at stank@keimts. com or call me at 785-285-2147. Even if you are curious about how this all works or have any questions, please call. You will make a connection that will last beyond this summer. Stan Keim Sabetha

April is Alcohol Awareness Month Dear Editor, April is Alcohol Awareness Month. Underage drinking poses many risks for youth and for the community. Early alcohol use can cause permanent damage to the still developing teen brain and can increase the risk of addiction. Those who drink before the age of 15 are at least four times more likely to have alcohol problems as adults than those who wait until at least age 21 (State of the State: Regarding Underage Drinking in Kansas, 2013). Alcohol reduces inhibitions and judgment that can lead to reckless decisions. This is especially a risk factor for teens since the last area of the brain to develop impacts COLUMNS the ability to make safe judgments and decision making skills. Underage drinking in Kansas cost $0.5 billion in 2013 (youth violence, youth traffic crashes, high-risk sex, property damage, alcohol treatment, youth injuries, fetal alcohol syndrome in The Promised Land 15 to 20 year old moms, alcohol poisoning and psychoses). have just spent a week in Is- ing through what would have been think this was land befitting a desert meant a place to meet alone “Serious neurobehavioral effects in the fetus” (Institute of rael, touring the Holy Land The Promised Land, The Land gift from God? with God.
