JOLIET DISTRICT 86

D.86 Board OKs new teachers pact The Joliet Public Schools District 86 Board of School Inspectors approved a new two-year contract for the Council #86 of the American Federation of Teachers, Local 604. The two-year wage settlement provides teachers with an average wage increase of 3.25 percent this year and a 3.5 percent increase next school year.

Under the new contract, starting pay for a teacher with a bachelor’s degree and no experience is $43,459. The new agreement is retroactive to the beginning of this school year.

This settlement allows District 86 to remain competitive in its ability to attract and retain quality teachers. It represents a combined effort between the district and union to continue to provide the students

with a quality education.

“I am pleased we have a strong working relationship with our teaching staff and were able to

agree on a contract,” said Superintendent Dr. Theresa Rouse.

The union represents approximately 750 teachers.

Take Back the Night takes to the streets This year, a scholarship was awarded to a survivor as part of Will County Take Back the Night’s effort

BY MEGANN HORSTEAD For the Bugle @BugleNewspapers sweditor@buglenewspapers.com

Since 2007, nearly 75 female homicide victims and children from Will County are recorded.

Enter the annual Will County Take Back the Night vigil and march, which united residents, civic leader and other community members in supporting survivors and remembering lives lost through violence.

“It’s a beautiful event because we have survivors and supporters coming together,” said Anna Miller, co-chair for Will County Take Back the Night. “Sometimes people feel like they’re alone, they come here, and they feel supported. It’s a beautiful, power atmosphere. They don’t feel lonely anymore or find the strength to

get through another day or the strength to leave a bad situation.”

New this time around, the program’s keynote speech focused on human trafficking.

“It’s a growing problem in Will County, and I think most people are unaware of that,” Miller said.

“It’s also aligned with what we’re trying to do, which is trying to bring awareness to gender-based violence.”

Throughout the world, 4.5 million people are victims of sexual exploitation or trafficking.

“It’s hard for people to understand sometimes when they hear about human trafficking and sex trafficking occurring here in the United States, and when we tell you that trafficking occurs right here in the communities right around here, it’s hard for people to understand that until they un-

derstand what sexual exploitation and trafficking actually looks like,” Reclaim13 executive director Cassandra Ma said. “When we tell people that sexual exploitation oftentimes starts and begins in a very young child’s life in the form of sexual abuse, 90 percent of victims of sex trafficking were

first sexually abused in childhood.

That statistic is born out again and again in the work that we do.”

Reclaim13 is a non-profit organization focused on sexually abused and exploited children, and they provide support to individuals through its mentor program and Cherish House, a home

for commercially sexually exploited youth. During the program, Will County Circuit Clerk Andrea Chasteen presented Will County Take Back the Night with a check in the amount of $4,750.

A number of area organizations that support women in Will County organized booths, and representatives were on hand during the program to give people a chance to learn more about the options available to those in need.

Miller said having these organizations present works two-fold, in terms of creating awareness for community resources committed to women and raising money to support Will County Take Back the Night.

This year, a scholarship was awarded to a survivor as part of Will County Take Back the Night’s effort.

To the beat of a drum, the program concluded with a march led by loved ones representing individuals who died.

WILL COUNTY NEWS

Volunteers paint Children’s Advocacy Center Volunteers paint interior of new Children’s Advocacy Center building Volunteers from ITW Deltar Fasteners in Frankfort and United Way of Will County recently dipped brushes into buckets to put a fresh coat of paint on the walls of what will be the new offices for the Will County Children’s Advocacy Center.

ITW and United Way volunteers spent two days painting the interior walls of the building at 304 N. Scott Street. The building will become the new home for the Will County Children’s Advocacy Center when the staff moves in at the end of November. The Center’s current building will be demolished to make way for the new Will County Courthouse.

“This tremendous gesture by ITW and its volunteer workers put the Children’s Advocacy Center a major step closer to occupying a new building where the staff can pursue its mission of bringing hope, healing, and justice to sexually abused children,” said

Will County State’s Attorney James Glasgow, who chairs the Center’s Board of Directors. “Community partnerships with socially responsible corporations like ITW play an important role in enabling the Children’s Advocacy Center to conduct its important work on behalf of vulnerable children.”

The Will County Children’s Advocacy Center is funded in part by United Way of Will County. ITW decided to organize teams of volunteer painters after the Children’s Advocacy Center’s staff visited the company last month to encourage employees to continue their already generous participation in the annual United Way Campaign.

“It was great to be able to support and to help out locally. Community involvement is one of our core values, and it was a pleasure to serve the Children’s Advocacy Center,” said Joel R. Lee ITW United Way Division Chair.

Illinois Tool Works Inc. is a global

Fortune 200 diversified manufacturing company that delivers specialized expertise, innovative solutions and value-added products to meet critical customer needs in a variety of industries. ITW Deltar Fasteners serves all the major Automotive OEMs and their tier suppliers with plastic fasteners.

Will County Executive Larry Walsh and the Will County Board

agreed to purchase the building, which had housed the Will County Center for Community Concerns, and invited the Children’s Advocacy Center use the space. Two Will County Board members, Mike Fricilone and Herb Brooks, sit on the Center’s Board of Directors.

“By taking these important steps to ensure the Children’s Advocacy Center has a home, Larry Walsh and the County Board have displayed tremendous leadership and a deep commitment to protecting abused children,” said State’s Attorney Glasgow.

The Children’s Advocacy Center will occupy the building for the next several years while it embarks on a development campaign to raise funds to purchase or build a permanent facility. The Center’s

goal is to develop a site that has a residential look that will be welcoming to sexually abused children and their families.

State’s Attorney Glasgow established the not-for-profit Will County Children’s Advocacy Center in 1995 to improve investigations of child sexual abuse cases.

The center’s professionally trained and compassionate staff performs child-sensitive interviews when there are allegations of sexual or severe physical abuse. Children’s recorded statements have been used in the successful prosecution of thousands of predators. The caring team also has provided counseling, advocacy services, and medical referrals for nearly 10,000 sexually and severely abused children and their family members.

GUEST COLUMN

The calm before the storm Creating peace is a complex process - and this, unfortunately, is not always obvious

BY ROBERT C. KOEHLER Tribune Content Agency Every time Donald Trump blurts or tweets a shocker - “maybe it’s the calm before the storm,” for instance - questions flood the media.

Is he serious? What did he mean?

Yes, of course, but beyond these, larger questions hover half-asked, cutting into the soul of who we are. This is painful, but not necessarily a bad thing. For me, one question that keeps emerging is: What is the relationship between Trump and the military-political system he stepped into?

That is to say, is he furthering its covert agenda (creating the conditions for more war) or, contrarily, exposing it for what it is?

Or both?

Back in February, for instance, Trump the pugnacious 14-year-old told a Reuters reporter: “I am the first one that would like to see . . . nobody have nukes, but we’re never going to fall behind any country even if it’s a friendly country, we’re never going to fall behind on nuclear power. It would be wonderful, a dream would be that no country would have nukes, but if countries are going to have nukes, we’re going to be at the top of the pack.”

America, America! It’s at the top of the pack, man. Trump puts what’s really going on into the language of the playground, delighting his base (a third of the country) and convulsing pretty much everyone else. Of course, what’s really going on is more than just bully blather. With Trump at the helm, the United States of America, the planet’s premiere superpower, is putting the planet, in the words of Republican Sen. Bob Corker, “on the path to World War Three.”

We were on that path anyway, just with more dignity and decorum. And more ambivalence. As the U.S. prepared for war it also negotiated peace: in particular, the 2015 Iran nuclear agreement, which Trump wants to decertify. Most security experts have hailed the agreement as a remarkable achievement, halting Iran’s nuclear weapons development, curtailing a nuclear arms race in the Middle East, easing tensions with the U.S. and

BY ROBERT C. KOEHLER Tribune Content Agency

helping establish an international framework for creating peace.

The foreign policy establishment remains wary of Iran and considers the agreement flawed, but nonetheless crucial. Which Iran, former CIA analyst Paul Pillar asked recently, is most likely to act with destabilizing aggressiveness?

“Is it an Iran,” he wrote, “that is being reintegrated into the community of nations, that sees material benefit from negotiating restrictions on itself and then scrupulously observing those restrictions, and sees the opportunity for gaining more respectability and influence as long as it plays by the international community’s rules? Or is it an Iran that is kept isolated and punished, sees any significant agreement that it does negotiate get destroyed or reneged upon by other parties, that is the target of unending confrontation and hostility, and that is treated forever as a pariah? The answer should be obvious.”

Creating peace is a complex process - and this, unfortunately, is not always obvious. The point Pillar and others are making in support of the 2015 agreement, known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action, or JCPOA, is that trying to punish and dominate our enemies tends to create results that are the opposite of what we want, or claim to want.

The idea that enemies are permanent, which is how a segment of the U.S. foreign policy establishment regards Iran, hardens our national commitment to militarism. Listening to countries with whom we are at odds - working with them, finding power in solidarity with them rather than threatening to annihilate them - calls militarism into question.

We live with and build national policy around the compromise between these two ways of being in the world.

Thus, even in an agreement as mutually beneficial as the JCPOA, the U.S. maintains a state of assumed dominance: Iran has to stop its nuclear weapons development. But the nuclear arsenal of the United States and the

agreement’s other signatories, which include China, France, Russia and the United Kingdom, are not under discussion. The unspoken assumption, it seems, is that some nukes are necessary, and some countries must remain in possession of them.

All of which brings Trump’s “top of the nuclear pack” comment back into the conversation. Dominating the world, especially by possessing the most weapons of mass destruction, is by far the simplest way to understand power, and there are enormous interests in the U.S. that revere - and most importantly, benefit from - the domination outlook. Trump both promotes this agenda and exposes it to the world.

Indeed: “. . . recently we hear (an) alarming announcement by a nuclearweapon state that it intends to continuously strengthen and expand its nuclear arsenal to ensure its place ‘at the top of the pack.’”

The words are those of Abbas Araghchi, Iran’s deputy foreign minister, speaking at the U.N. General Assembly on Sept. 26, the International Day for the Total Elimination of Nuclear Weapons, who warned that the United States - which he referred to as “a certain nuclear-weapon state” - was not only modernizing its nuclear arsenal but developing low-yield bombs, which means, my God, usable nuclear weapons, and thus launching a new, global nuclear arms race.

This project, part of a trillion-dollar planned upgrade of the U.S. nuclear arsenal, began during the Obama, not the Trump, administration.

But now the world has President Trump, commander-by-impulse and reckless reality-TV host with the power to launch war. He wants to decertify the Iran deal and declare it not to be in the country’s interests. Is he exposing the final phase of an international politics based on military dominance?

Here’s another question he forces us to ask: How is universal nuclear disarmament possible without a nucleararmed, external force imposing it?

This is not just a question to be pondered by the 122 nations that recently voted in favor of the U.N. Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons.

Those who boycotted the vote hold the answer.

COUNTY NEWS

Drive Sober campaign enforced for Halloween This Halloween the Joliet Police Department is cracking down on impaired drivers with an aggressive Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over enforcement effort and is giving a fair warning to holiday revelers: Keep the Party off Road.

“On Halloween, we urge you to beware of impaired driving,” said Joliet Police Chief Brian Benton. “Driving impaired by alcohol or drugs is deadly. It is illegal and will get you pulled over and arrested this Halloween.”

According to National Highway Traffic Safety Administration estimates, more than 300 people were killed in alcohol-impaired motor vehicle crashes in each of the last three years in Illinois.

In 2014, 302 people lost their lives in crashes involving at least one driver with a blood alcohol content (BAC) of .08 or above. In 2015, that number rose slightly to 315 and remained the same in 2016. Just one DUI arrest could cost an estimated $18,000 or more and result in revoked driving privileges for up to a year.

The Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over enforcement campaign urges everyone to follow these simple tips to help keep our roads safe during Halloween: � Plan a safe way to get home before you attend a party. � Designate a sober driver, take public transportation, use your favorite ride-sharing service, or call a sober friend or family member to get home. � Walking while impaired can be just as dangerous as driving impaired. Designate a sober friend to walk you home. � If you see an impaired driver on the road, contact local law enforcement as soon as it is safe to do so. � If you see an impaired person about to drive, take their keys and help them get home safely.

The Halloween enforcement effort is made possible by federal traffic safety funds administered by the Illinois Department of Transportation.

Police to purchase state-of-the-art system to process crime scenes State’s Attorney’s Office has forwarded a check totaling $43,089.42 to pay for half of the $84,200 laser scanning and measurement system Will County State’s Attorney James Glasgow announced that he is partnering with the Joliet Police Department to purchase a state-of-the-art laser scanning system that will dramatically advance the processing of violent crime and crash scenes.

State’s Attorney Glasgow has utilized money he seized from criminals engaged in illegal activities to cover half the cost of the FARO S350 3D Laser Scanner from FARO Technologies in Lake Mary, Fla. The State’s Attorney’s Office has forwarded a check totaling $43,089.42 to pay for half of the $84,200 laser scanning and measurement system.

The technology in this package will dramatically advance the ability of the Joliet Police Department’s highly skilled crime scene technicians to quickly process crime and crash scenes with pinpoint accuracy and high-definition detail.

“Effective crime-scene processing is the critical first step in

every investigation,” said State’s Attorney Glasgow. “I have witnessed the application of this technology in several investigations in the past several months, and I believe it to be one of the most significant law enforcement developments in years.

Evidence technicians at a murder scene will spend hours taking photographs and video, making meticulous measurements, and drawing detailed diagrams. The same is true for collision reconstruction specialists at vehicle crash scenes, some of which can span several city blocks or long stretches of rural road. This 21st Century technology, in their skilled hands, will substantially reduce the amount of time it takes them to document these scenes for investigation and prosecution purposes.

Furthermore, the FARO system will enhance their accuracy down to the millimeter and provide a recorded perspective of crime or crash scenes that is un-

precedented.

“My prosecutors will be able to lay the foundation to use these records at trial, giving judges and jurors incredibly detailed threedimensional views of these crime scenes,” the State’s Attorney said. “We will literally be taking the jury to a crime scene, not after-the-fact as has historically been done in the past, but at the exact moment that all the relevant evidence is still in its original location.”

“The Joliet Police Department is committed to delivering the highest level of professionalism in Public Safety,” said Police Chief Brian Benton. “This stateof-the art crime scene technology will help us in our efforts and we appreciate States Attorney Glasgow’s continued support.”

The State’s Attorney’s contribution for this system uses no taxpayer dollars. “Instead, I am using money I have seized from criminals who were engaged in illegal activities in our county,” State’s Attorney Glasgow said. “I can think of no more appropriate use for such money than to assist Will County’s largest police department in solving violent crimes and taking dangerous criminals off our streets.”

LEGEND

Eural Mac’ McLaughlin was honored with a Lifetime Service Award by wrestling Hall of Fame

BY MATT LE CREN For the Bugle www.buglenewspapers.com

Eural “Mac” McLaughlin was a 5-foot-1, 118-pound quarterback his senior year at Dunbar High School in 1959.

In his final high school game, McLaughlin faced CVS star Dick Butkus, who promptly spit in his face mask from about eight yards away.

It was the last time anyone disrespected McLaughlin.

“That was the first time and the last time I saw Butkus,” McLaughlin said. “He couldn’t catch me. I was an angry little man.”

That was one of the stories McLaughlin related during his acceptance speech Sunday after receiving the Lifetime Service Award from the National Wrestling Hall of Fame Illinois Chapter.

Despite his small stature, McLaughlin, who grew to be 5-6,

went on to play three sports at North Central College, lettering in football, wrestling and baseball, before spending a year in the Canadian Football League with the Saskatchewan Rough Riders.

After returning to the Chicago area, McLaughlin began what became a legendary career as a wrestling coach at Joliet Central, leading the Steelmen to a 508192-9 record over a 40-year career that ended in 2010.

Under McLaughlin’s guidance, Joliet Central won the 1985 dual team state championship and produced 108 state qualifiers, including seven state champions and eight runners-up. But success wasn’t defined solely by victory.

FOOTBALL

Plainfield North wins battle of the Tigers

BY BOB VAVRA For the Bugle www.buglenewspapers.com

Teams heading into the state football playoffs like to talk about building momentum, and Plainfield North certainly has things moving in the right direction.

After a pair of tough one-point losses against Minooka and Oswego East, North had rolled to three straight wins by a combined score of 151-20.

A quick glance at Friday’s finale at Joliet West might suggest more of the same.

The 38-14 pasting of the home-standing Tigers left Plainfield North at 7-2 heading into this weekend’s matchup with Andrew in the Class 7A playoffs. The 14th-seeded Tigers will host the 19th-seeded Thunderbolts.

Until wide receiver Garret Cook put his finger on the problem in the second half, however, Plainfield North looked like a team that might find its way to another close loss.

Cook’s two spectacular touchdown catches broke the back of Joliet West, who sent its fans home unhappy on Senior Night.

Joliet West was the last team to qualify for the Class 8A playoffs with a 5-4 record, and earned a date at Lincoln-Way East, the state’s top-ranked team.

The first half was a wretched effort by both teams. Plainfield

North had four fumbles, a few dropped passes, two defensive breakdowns, a couple of bad penalties and the backlash from some equally dodgy officiating.

Buoyed only by Nathan Jurek’s 45-yard line-drive field goal at the first half buzzer, Plainfield North trailed 14-13, and things didn’t look promising.

“We played sloppy in the first half,” Plainfield North coach Tim Kane said. “We changed things up on both sides of the ball. We got some better match-ups on both sides of the ball.

“I was so proud of how we responded after halftime. We settled down on both sides of the ball.”

The first clue that things were better after the half came when Plainfield North defenders Nick Albert and Alex Nowak stuffed a fourth-and-one at the Plainfield 40 on Joliet West’s opening drive of the second half. Quarterback Brady Miller hit Zach Nadle for a 34-yard play to the Joliet 26, and then on the next play caught Joliet looking the wrong way and lobbed a throwback pass to Dillon McCarthy, who went the 26 yards untouched to put Plainfield North up for good at 19-14.

Plainfield North started from its own 20 on the next series, and Cook took over the game.

His one-handed, jugging grab of Miller’s deep pass turned into an 80-yard score when Cook broke a tackle in the Joliet secondary

to move the score to 26-14.

After completing 9-of-12 for 193 yards and a 53-yard touchdown pass to Marcellus Moore in the first half, Miller was 7-of10 for 178 yards and two touchdowns just in the third quarter.

Kane was effusive in his praise for both thrower and receiver.

“Cook made some great plays out there,” Kane said. “Brady threw the ball well, and really took some shots back there. That just shows how tough he is.”

Cook’s second score was almost as spectacular. Off a broken play from the 6-yard line in the fourth quarter, Miller rolled out and lobbed the ball close

enough for Cook so he could again nab the ball with one hand.

Plainfield wrapped up the scoring when Joe Stiffend burst 23 yards up the middle with 2:08 to go. The Plainfield North netted just 63 rushing yards for the game—just 7 in the first half.

While the offense was rolling up points, the Plainfield defense was running down Joliet quarterback Jaxon Aubry and bottling up H-back Omari Ferguson.

That duo combined for one firsthalf touchdown on a beautifully set screen pass, and Ferguson turned a short route into a 63yard gain just before halftime to

set up their go-ahead score.

In the second half, Aubry was limited to completing short passes and his elusive play in the backfield finally was neutralized. In particular, a 17-yard third-quarter sack by Plainfield’s Nick Wood seemed to take any final air out of the Joliet West attack. More importantly, the Plainfield defense didn’t allow Joliet West inside their 40-yard line and consistently gave Miller a short field to play with in the second half. Miller finished his final regular season game at Plainfield North by completing SEE TIGERS PAGE 10

day monitoring the cafeteria. “(I missed) being around the kids,” McLaughlin said. “That’s why I went back because I’m around kids. I’m an authoritarian so the bigger and the rougher the crowd, the better off I am. My ambition every day was to create one kid and make him better.

“That means breaking him down and putting him back together. The next day I got another kid and I kept doing that.”

Beneath the gruff exterior lies a man who cares deeply about the kids he coaches and about

the latest recognition he’s received from his peers.

“It’s a dream come true (after) all those years of sweat and toil with the kids,” McLaughlin said. “(I take pride) just from my peers coming up and telling me congratulations because for 50 years we’ve argued when we go against each other but at these meetings we love each other and we’re not ashamed to say that.”

Downers Grove South athletic director Randy Konstans, who held the same job at Lockport, was one of five other individuals

“It’s just so humbling, not just (to be honored with) Mac but all of them,” Konstans said.

“Especially when you consider the people that have gone in before.”

McLaughlin, who is in his 50th year working at Joliet Central, still helps out with the wrestling team when asked. He also is an official at the state finals.

“Every time they need me to yell at them I give them a rahrah speech,” McLaughlin said.

“I’m good at that. I try to motivate people.”

Konstans was asked what he thinks McLaughlin’s legacy will be.

“We won’t know until it stops because he’s still working the (state) tournament with us,” Konstans said. “But I think you got a glimpse of it in his speech.

“To listen to him talk, you see how he can reach kids. To me, that’s going to be his greatest legacy, is what he’s been able to do for wrestlers at Joliet Central for 40 years.”

COLUMN >> DAVE SAYS

Vacation home is not real money-maker DEAR DAVE, What is your opinion of buying a vacation home, then renting it out when you’re not there?

J.P. DEAR J.P., I see nothing wrong with it, as long as you’re buying with cash and you’re also debt-free. A vacation home is a wonderful “extra” as you start building wealth. Remember though, it’s still basically a very large, very expensive toy. In most cases it will go up in value, and if you rent it, it might become something of a money-maker for you.

But here’s another side to vacation home rentals: You’ll probably make some money, but in most cases there will be several weeks during a year when it sits empty.

your guests, along with general maintenance and repairs. There’s always something that needs attention when you own a property. But if you can handle all that emotionally and financially – and you’re not looking for it to be a big-time investment that will make you rich – you’ll be fine.

—DAVE

You’re not going to get rich renting it out. So, they’re not really great investment properties. What you’re talking about is more of a plan to offset the annual costs of your toy. If you look at it that way, I don’t think you’ll be disappointed.

If you’re determined to go this route, be ready to deal with spills on the carpet and damage from
