Jared Powers, eight, of Garden City dominated the pedal pull contest at Finney County Fair. He won his age class and will compete at the 2002 Kansas State Fair in Hutchinson, while a demolition derby drew crowds with heats, prizes, and a final winner awarding $1,000.
At the Finney County Fairground on Sunday, wind disrupted the fair with rides rattling and show pens exposed. A small crowd gathered around the show pens for Round Robin while a few wandered the carnival and 4-H barn where Kay Richter photographed grandchildren’s entries and pointed out award displays and food menus.
Brad Irvin, a 16 year old Garden City high school student, travels with the Young Continentals across the Southern states singing and dancing to minister. He recalls fallible performances, a few stumbles on risers, and a prank at a pastor's house that turned into a tour story.
Democrat Kathleen Sebelius, a two term insurance commissioner, appears nearly invincible in the Kansas governor race. With about 1.27 million dollars and no primary challenge, she leads in pre primary polling among likely voters amid a strong campaign effort.

The primary is settled but Sebelius faces a tough race ahead despite new advantages as Kansas Democrats warn the challenge remains steep.
