With the meat of the schedule coming up, the Newton High School boys’ soccer team’s 6-0 win over winless Salina Central was a change to give some players a well-deserved rest, while still improving the team’s goal differential, which is one of the tie-breakers for post-season seeding. Jonny Galvan scored a goal with three assists to lead the Railers.

As promised in my last column, here’s information about the Hutchinson madstone. You’ll recall that in the days (centuries, in fact) before a vaccine was available, people relied on madstones to ward off rabies if bitten by a rabid dog or cat. The lightweight stone develops by accretion in the stomach of a cow, a deer, or any ruminant. First treated with milk, the madstone is placed on the bite. If it falls off, no rabies; if it sticks, it adheres until it is saturated with the poison, then drops off. This process is repeated until it no longer sticks.
