Kansas Guardsmen Prepare for Egypt Deployment
About 425 members of the Kansas National Guard based in Clay Center are preparing to deploy to Egypt to help prevent violations of the 1979 Egyptian Israeli Treaty of Peace. The unit conducts pre-mobilization training in Salina, including weapons use, first aid, and infantry work. A July 19 deployment ceremony at the Bicentennial Center in Salina will precede mobilization at Fort Lewis, Washington.

Smaller Kansas racetracks face uncertain future
Two obscure Kansas tracks Eureka Downs and Anthony Downs face closure as simulcasting revenue collapses. Since 1992 the three-way tax flow supported purses, but after Wichita and Woodlands closures and a funding drop the racing side has run out of funds. Eureka aims to keep open next spring while Anthony expects to close, with remaining races scheduled this summer under a grim budget outlook.
