DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) – An Iowa Supreme Court decision in a dispute over the value of shares in a farm business two cousins inherited from their fathers gives additional clout to minority shareholders in closely held family businesses and could have wide-sweeping effect on inherited family business operations. The court’s decision released Friday centers on cousins Jack and Bob Baur who have argued over the value of Jack’s shares in Baur Farms Inc. since the early 1990s.
Jack Baur sued alleging Bob and the farm corporation engaged in oppressive conduct by refusing to buy Jack’s shares at a fair market value. The high court says minority shareholders may reasonably expect to share proportionally in a corporation’s gains, setting a new standard in disputes over the value of shares in family corporations.
Movie theaters aren’t the only ones showing superheroes this weekend. The city of Carson will showcase Mayhem in the Manor, a play written by local favorite Wilma Laughlin, at the Carson Community building. Laughlin says you will see all your favorite superheroes but not in the typical fashion “It is a light hearted dinner theater with all the superheroes such as Spiderman, Superman and Batman in the nursing home. It is a comical thing with bad guys trying to get the good guys. It is just a light hearted comedy.”
She says the cast in the play are made up of local actors and actresses, “We are not a super class act theater but we are a fun bunch of people. If you enjoy watching local people, you will have fun with this.” Laughlin has written several plays for Carson events but says the time has come to slow down “These plays are getting to me a little bit. I think this is the last play so if you want to see one more play by me you better come.”
Mayhem at the Manor will be shown tonight (Friday) and Saturday with doors opening at 6-pm and the show beginning at 6:30-pm. Tickets are on sale for $27 each and include a dinner beforehand. All proceeds go towards the city of Carson placing an electronic Daktronics message board for the Riverside Community. The message board will keep community members up to date on local events, Dreamland Theater movies, school activities and annual town celebrations. Tickets can be purchased by contact the Carson City Hall at 712-484-3636.

Flight enthusiasts are ready to take off to Shelby County this weekend. The 68th annual Harlan Flight Breakfast will be held all weekend long at the municipal airport. The two day event starts on Saturday afternoon. Scott Pigsley, president of the 8-Ball aviation club, says plane rides begin at 4:30-p.m. Pigsley says “We give airplane rides for $10. If you want we have hot dogs, chips and a drink for $3. The ride is around 20 minutes long. We go the Harlan Community out to Prairie Rose and back to the airport. Everyone can see where they might live or just enjoy flying.”
For the breakfast on Sunday, Pigsley says if the weather cooperates, the airport could see up to 60 planes. “We usually have planes come from different airports in Nebraska, Iowa and even Missouri. If the weather is nice we could see upwards of 60 planes,” Pigsley explains.
A breakfast of bacon, sausage, eggs, toast and a beverage will be served with tickets $5 for adults and children 10 and under eating for $2. The planes flying in on Sunday will hang around and be on display to check out along with classic and muscle car displays. No matter the weather, the Harlan Flight breakfast will be served on Sunday.

A PottawattamieCounty town is filling up its streets with antiques for the entire weekend. The Walnut Antique show began this (Friday) morning and runs through Sunday. Vendors from around the United States will fill up the streets with all types of antiques to buy, sell and trade.
Gene Larson, Post Commander for the Walnut AmVets, whatever you are looking for in antiques will be at the show as the city has 17 blocks full of dealers and are even using a former food stand, the AmVet hall, for more dealers.
Even though one hall now has vendors, food will be in 3 churches and the optimist club will have food too. However, the best way to start your day at the antique show is with a fireman’s breakfast. They will serve at 6-am each day. Even if you aren’t an antique buff, you will enjoy walking around looking at this stuff. The annual Walnut Antique show continues to be a free event with no admission or parking fees and will go on rain or shine until late Sunday afternoon.
