ON THE COVER Former Chicago Bear Donnell Woolford speaks with DeVry University Professor Tim Stephan on Monday at the Addison campus. Erica Benson - ebenson@shawmedia.com

DeVry students partner with former Chicago Bear for project By MARY BETH VERSACI mversaci@shawmedia.com ADDISON – A group of students at DeVry University’s Addison campus recently received a unique opportunity. Not only did they get real-world, hands-on experience in their field of study, but they also worked with former Chicago Bears cornerback Donnell Woolford to create a marketing plan and materials for his youth flag football league. “They did an excellent job,” Woolford said at the group’s project presentation Monday. “I was very honored to work with them.” Students Falak Anwar, Cassandra Libel, Noreen Lydon and Dustin Perkins, all seniors studying sales and marketing, were picked by DeVry professor Bonnie Rucks to work with Woolford for the Senior Project I course. Although she did not teach the course this session, she served as that specific team’s adviser. Rucks and Woolford are friends from when the instructor did marketing for the Chicago Bears. Woolford’s Greater Chicago Flag Football League launched in August, and as it looks to expand, the retired Bear turned to his friend, whom he refers to as a “marketing genius,” for help. DeVry students developed various ways to help Wool-

ford, from designing marketing materials, like a new logo and flier, to developing ways to market the league, including through social media. DeVry University has long partnered with area businesses and organizations to provide these types of real-world

learning experiences for students. “It’s one thing to talk about accounting or it’s one thing to talk about marketing, but it’s another thing to actually do accounting or do marketing,” Senior Project I Professor Tim Stephan said. When discussing what they learned during their presentation, the students said it was valuable to them to experience the importance of communication and team work. “Now I feel like we’re going to be extremely confident going into entry-level positions,”

Lydon said. Moving forward, the football league will continue to work with the DeVry students to finalize a marketing plan and materials. The league is open to both boys and girls between ages 5 and 18. While it started in two locations – Des Plaines and Lisle – for its first season this fall, the plan is to bring it to another two sites in the Chicago area this spring, and the students’ work should help to accomplish that. “This was a platform for us,” Woolford said.

Park District to receive $1.8M grant SUBURBAN LIFE MEDIA ADDISON – The Addison Park District will be able to renovate Community Recreation Center, thanks to a $1.8 million state grant, according to a district news release. The Addison grant is part of $7.1 million being awarded to several municipal DuPage County park districts, the release stated. In addition to Addison, the funds provided through the

Park and Recreation Facility Construction program will go to districts in Bartlett, Hanover Park and Roselle. Gov. Pat Quinn visited the Addison Park District on Oct. 4 to publicly announce the DuPage County grant awards. Community Recreation Center on the east side of Addison is the Park District’s administration office, one of the preschool centers, and home to the Active Adults senior club and several other programs

and special events. Concept plans are in place for a $3.5 million renovation that will include upgrading the multipurpose rooms, providing ADA-compliant access for patrons with limited mobility, and replacing inefficient HVAC and lighting throughout the building, according to the release. The grants awarded to DuPage County park districts are part of $50 million available through the facility construction program administered

by the Illinois Department of Natural Resources and funded by Quinn’s Illinois Jobs Now! Construction program, the release stated. The Park and Recreation Facility Construction program provides funding to eligible local governments for park and recreation construction projects, such as land acquisition, development, architectural planning, construction, rehabilitation and improvements, according to the release.

gram wasn’t just a talk with an author. Jennifer Rae wrote her book, “Kessen’s Kronikles,” from the perspective of her dog Kessen, a therapy dog, once on the path to be a service dog.

The club continues to donate to area organizations such as PADS, one of the club’s favorites, Given said. Every month from October through May, the club gathers for their meeting and a program, which varies from presentations like the one Rae gave about her book to an afternoon of board games. The club aims to enrich members’ lives through social activities, educational programs and community service.

LOMBARD – A group of a few dozen women enjoy coffee and cake and ask questions of an author presenting on her book. The scene seems simple enough, but the group of women are part of a legacy much older than the room in which they sit at Lexington Square in Lombard. The Lombard Woman’s Club is celebrating its 100th anniversary during this meeting season. The club began in 1914, but it wasn’t formally organized until March 9, 1915. This month kicked off the 100th anniversary. “Always, it’s been the people that I’ve enjoyed knowing,” Publicity Chairwoman Joan Given said. The 88-year-old joined the club in 1983, and while that was decades after the club started, Given said she’s seen the club change during her tenure as a member. “It’s changed, and it’s become more interested in what we can get from the club instead of what the club can do,” Given said. The club, she explained, was founded on service to the community. Monday’s pro-

Local churches join together to fight hunger By MARY BETH VERSACI

If you go

mversaci@shawmedia.com For the 31st year, local churches and other organizations will ban together to fight hunger at home and abroad. The Great Prairie Trail CROP Hunger Walk is organized by groups in Addison, Lombard, Villa Park and the York Center neighborhood of unincorporated DuPage County to raise funds for area food pantries and organizations, as well as Church World Service, which leads hunger-fighting efforts around the world. Malnutrition leads to nearly half of all childhood deaths before age 5, Church World Service’s website states. Great Prairie Trail CROP Hunger Walk coordinator Dan Jares said it’s the ability to relate to hunger that makes so many different groups join together to fight it, although he added the hunger many people face does not compare to those facing malnutrition around the world.

The 31st Great Prairie Trail CROP Hunger Walk will begin at 1:30 p.m. Sunday at Lombard Commons Park, 433 E. St. Charles Road.

Voters approved a $35 million referendum earlier this year to help fund the construction of new buildings for the district. Community Relations Coordinator Peg Mannion said a majority of the buildings are 40 to 80 years old and in need of repair. When the referendum was approved, the district committed to pay $65 million to fund the project. If Senate Bill 16 passed, the work would likely need to be scaled back, McClain said. Nothing specific has been set aside as a definite potential cut. McClain said administrators have discussed the bill and are working on multiple five-year financial projections to present to the Board of Education. State Rep.w Jeanne Ives, R-Wheaton, who represents a portion of District 87, has been vocal in her disapproval of the bill. “It’s a travesty to the suburbs to expect they’re going to take more of our education dollars and expect us to meet educational standards,” she said. Ives said suburban legislators weren’t involved in the

LOMBARD – Glenbard Township High School District 87 administrators have projected that a proposed bill that could restructure the distribution of statewide educational dollars will cost the district $5.4 million, should it pass. According to legislative documents, Senate Bill 16 – officially titled the School Funding Reform Act of 2014 – would set up new guidelines for how state money would be distributed to school districts based on need. The formula is complex and includes values such as average daily attendance and property tax income. The Legislative Education Network of DuPage County has estimated county schools would lose a total of $84.9 million in state funding if Senate Bill 16 were approved. “Here in Illinois, the state … has had a structured process of distributing dollars. And it’s hard to blow that up right now,” District 87 Superintendent David Larson said. He said the district is informing parents about the bill and its possible outcomes. The bill is modeled after formulas that have been approved by other states, Larson said. But there’s been one distinct difference. “Other states have done this, but they’ve added new dollars,” he said. Larson said he hopes legislators will take a step back and continue discussions to come up with a better solution that doesn’t create winners and losers throughout the state. District Assistant Superintendent of Finance and Operations Chris McClain said the initial loss of $5.4 million would be phased in, most likely over a period of years. After the phasing in, the district would be without the $5.4 million every year. District 87 has a budget of $140 million. The estimated loss that would come with Senate Bill 16 makes up about 4 per-

discussions about creating the bill. The best thing for legislators to do at this point, she said, is start over. “This bill is far from ready,” she said. “We need to start from scratch. This bill, to me, needs to be completely taken apart and start over again.” The state Senate approved the bill in May. It then moved to the House of Representatives and has been in Rules Committee since the Senate passage.

Villa Park Planning and Zoning Commission member Robin Whitehurst asks Villa Park Director of Community Development Patrick Grill questions about Solice Solutions’ proposed site for a medical marijuana dispensary during a public hearing Oct. 9.

Application error snuffs out marijuana dispensary bid By DAVID GOOD The next Planning and Zoning Commission meeting is scheduled for Nov. 13. pensary in Villa Park. Last month, it presented a plan using 633 to 639 North Addison Road, which is in the M1 District. That time, however, the group removed its application before the issue reached a Village Board decision. After last week’s public hearing, the commission and village staff decided a dispensary would be a good fit for the Villa Avenue location because of the area’s industrial nature, Grill said. The potential benefits of medical marijuana also factored into their recommendation. Grill said studies show marijuana is less addictive than other pain medications, and there are no known incidents of overdose. “Why not be able to make that available to people in need of pain medications where more traditional drugs have failed or been ineffective,” Grill said. Should Solace Solutions reapply and earn the Village Board’s approval, it would then be up to the state to decide if Villa Park receives one of the three dispensaries allowed in DuPage County. The state’s decision would not expected until December at the earliest, Grill said.

LBS/VPA

VILLA PARK – Plans for a medical marijuana dispensary were picking up support from the village until a missing piece of paper derailed that momentum. Solace Solutions’ proposed dispensary at 851 N. Villa Ave. would have required rezoning approval and a conditional use permit because it does not fall in the village’s designated M1 District. Village staff and the Planning and Zoning Commission recommended the Village Board approve the rezoning and conditional use ordinance after Tami Wanless of Solace Solutions presented the group’s plan Oct. 9 at a public hearing. The proposal made it onto Monday’s Village Board meeting agenda but was never discussed after it was discovered Solace Solutions failed to complete a document acknowledging ownership, said Patrick Grill, director of community development for Villa Park. Solace Solutions now must start from the beginning of the application process if it plans to continue pursuing the dispensary. “It’s up to them if they want to refile or move forward,” Grill said. Calls to Wanless were not immediately returned. This wasn’t Solace Solutions’ first effort to put a dis-

SB16 could impact D-87 schools and students

adno=S0249854

Senate Bill 16, which would radically redistribute state funding for education, is under review by the State of Illinois legislature. The bill, as written, would cut the annual revenue that Glenbard Township High School District 87 receives from the State of Illinois by a staggering $5.4 million per year, a 79 percent reduction. This significant reduction in revenue would require Glenbard District 87 to reduce staff, instructional programs and capital renovations that are needed to deliver quality programs for our students. Class sizes would rise, instructional programs would be reduced and/or eliminated and buildings would not be maintained to the level required. This legislation could be acted upon as early as November or during the January 2015 lame duck session. If enacted into law, Senate Bill 16 would make sweeping changes in how the state funds education. Generally, school districts with higher assessed property values would receive much less state funding. Currently, the state funding formula provides categorical grants based on the characteristics of students, including the number of English language learners, special education students and low-income students. The new formula would not adequately support the needs of these students. In the past 10 years, Glenbard District 87’s low-income population has increased 400 percent, from 8 percent in 2004 to 32 percent in 2014. We welcome all students and believe our changing demographics enrich our school community. However, a significant growth in the number of low-income students presents financial and instructional challenges. Now is not the time to slash our state funding by 79 percent. While Glenbard District 87 agrees Illinois’ education funding model requires a comprehensive review and requires improvement, SB16 as written is not the answer. We do agree there are school

COMMUNITY VOICE David Larson districts in the state that need more financial assistance. The state of Illinois should provide this assistance. However, that should be accomplished by giving additional resources to school districts in need, not by taking dollars away from school districts that rely on those dollars to deliver programs to students. Senate Bill 16: • Is modeled after a similar effort in Massachusetts. The Massachusetts General Assembly provided $1 billion in new money. There is no new money for education in Illinois SB16. This legislation is a redistribution of current resources. • Assumes school districts can recoup the loss of state aid through additional local funding. However, the Property Tax Extension Limitation Law (tax cap) limits the amount school districts can levy. What can you do?

Food pantry’s needs grow as the holiday season approaches Here we are in October again looking forward to the change of seasons, Halloween and all the holidays that follow. This is the time of year when the York Township Food Pantry needs your help the most. Last year, our pantry served 2,897 families, which consists of 8,923 people. We operate our food pantry solely on private COMMUNITY contributions and on kind VOICE donations by individuals, corJohn W. porations and organizations Valle such as The Lions Club, TranzAct Technologies, Elmhurst Seventh Day Adventist Church, Dan Gibbons’ Turkey Trot, village of Lombard, V.F.W. Lilac Post 5815, American Legion T.H.B. Post 187, AT&T, Jewel Osco, Glenbard East High School, Willowbrook High School Warrior Project and the Lauren Kiefer Foundation, Ascension of our Lord Parish, Calvary United Methodist Church, School District 45, Advantage Health Care Solutions and Friends of York Township, to name just a few. We receive two deliveries a month from The Northern Illinois Food Bank. Last year, we received 106,497 pounds of food, of which our shared cost was $13,263. That averages out to about 13 cents per pound. Bread and bakery goods are donated by Jewel and Ultra Foods during the week. We also receive produce weekly from Jewel, along with our participation in the Giving Garden program in the summertime when local gardeners contribute fresh-picked produce daily for our pantry clients and seniors. We distribute hams and turkeys at holiday time that are donated by Flood Brothers Disposal and the city of Oakbrook Terrace among others. We also purchase turkey dinners at a reasonable rate through the Northern Illinois Food Bank and distribute them to our pantry clients. York Township Hall also is an outreach site for SNAP, which stands for Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, better known as food stamps. A representative from the Northern Illinois Food Bank comes to our facility every month to take applications for this program. In addition to food products for our pantry, there is an ongoing need for cleaning supplies and paper products. Cash donations are always welcomed and much appreciated.

ENDORSEMENT

Ill. governor: Rauner Gov. Pat Quinn has had more than five years to guide Illinois toward a brighter fiscal future. Instead, his incompetent leadership and regressive policies have driven the state to the brink of financial collapse. To that point: Illinois is bleeding jobs. State data released last month show that there are 102,000 fewer Illinoisans in the workforce now than when Quinn, a Democrat, took office in 2009. That’s good for worst in the country. Illinois also is the only state in the Midwest in which food stamp enrollment has outpaced job creation – and by a 2-to-1 margin – since the Great Recession, again under Quinn’s watch. Illinois has the worst credit rating of any state in the nation, meaning it pays more in interest when borrowing money. Under Quinn, national ratings agencies have downgraded the state’s credit rating 13 times. The state’s bonds are near “junk” status. Illinois also has a worst-in-the-nation public pension deficit of $100 billion and growing. Almost a quarter of every dollar that state government collects annually from taxpayers goes toward retirement benefits, not services. Quinn stood on the sidelines as lawmakers worked on pension reform last year, offering no solution of his own to the state’s most pressing issue. The solution ultimately arrived at now appears likely to be thrown out in court, putting reform efforts back to square one. Deadbeat state government owes social service agencies, school districts and other employers almost $5 billion for work completed months ago. Illinois’ worker’s compensation costs are fourth worst in the U.S., driving businesses and jobs elsewhere. Quinn and Democratic state lawmakers also foisted a 67 percent income tax increase on wage earners in 2011, costing a household with annual income of $50,000 an additional $1,000 in taxes. Quinn promised it would be temporary, but now wants to make it permanent. He also wants to introduce a graduated income tax, another jobs killer. Simply put, Quinn’s tenure as governor has been a complete failure.

David Good, news editor dgood@shawmedia.com 630-427-6270

By contrast, Republican nominee for governor Bruce Rauner is a success story. A self-made millionaire, he helped build a startup investment firm into one of the most successful businesses in the state. Rauner’s wealth was not given to him. He earned it. Yet Quinn, a lifelong politician, holds that against him. Success should be lauded, not vilified. Because he is independently wealthy, Rauner will not be beholden to the special interests that have helped corrupt Springfield. He says he will stand up to public employee union leaders who have fought tooth-and-nail against reform. He says he also will fight corruption and cronyism, which have thrived under Quinn in state government agencies such as the Department of Transportation and the Department of Agriculture. Rauner understands that the state’s taxpayers are overburdened. He wants to phase out the Quinn income tax hike over four years, freeze property taxes, and shrink state government. He also wants to reduce the overall number of governmental bodies in Illinois. Rauner pledges to be an active governor and live in Springfield. Unlike Quinn, Rauner says that he will be on the floor working legislation every day the General Assembly is in session. Rauner also is not a career politician; this is his first run for office. He supports term limits and, if elected, says he would serve at most two terms. Rauner admits that he does not have all the answers. He understands that Illinois’ financial situation is so dire, he will need help. He vows to surround himself with talented people whose focus will be righting the state’s fiscal ship, not political cronies looking for more taxpayer-funded handouts. Rauner doesn’t need this job. He says he’s running because he believes in Illinois and wants to make it a better place to live. Bruce Rauner gives Illinois hope. Gov. Pat Quinn offers more of the same failures. Illinois can’t afford more of the same. That’s why we endorse Rauner, the Republican nominee for governor.

Clean it up I’m all for team spirit, but the Elmhurst Eagles organization needs to explore different ways to show that spirit besides toilet papering the houses of team members. I’m still finding toilet paper on my property two weeks later from a house three doors down from me. I don’t want the extra chore of picking up toilet paper, especially wet toilet paper from my yard. Here’s a suggestion: If the team loses, they have to go back and take down all the toilet paper from every house they toilet papered that day. If they win, their parents have to do it.

ED • Friday, October 17, 2014 • mysuburbanlife.com • Suburban Life

It seems to have become a tradition every fall after the kids go back to school, the burglars begin their work in Elmhurst. During the daytime hours, they roam around our town, looking for convenient homes to rob. We all see the stories in this newspaper. ... Where are the Elmhurst police? Why do we not see any stories about how these criminals were caught or, better yet, how these fools were stopped before they committed the burglaries? It’s autumn in Elmhurst; our police force needs to step up their game.

To the Editor: Just got my Oct. 10 edition of the Villa Park Suburban Life. Hmmm - let’s see. Grand total of five (count ‘em!) news articles – one based in Oakbrook Terrace, three in Lombard and one in Villa Park. Surely it must get better. One Mystery Diner review: a restaurant in La Grange. Different county? Check. 10 miles away from Villa Park? Check. Oh well, surely there will be some local content in Sports. Fairly lengthy coverage of three area high school boys football teams, arguably the

most popular of the fall high school sports programs. Which ones? Glenbard East (Lombard), Immaculate Conception (Elmhurst) and Montini (Lombard). And the coverage of the Villa Park-based Willowbrook Warriors would be found where? Nice job, boys and girls. William Buhr Villa Park

Concerned about SB16 To the Editor: As a retired school principal, a grandparent of a 2-year-old who will attend public school in the suburbs, a property taxpayer and someone who cares deeply

about education, I am concerned about Illinois Senate Bill 16. This bill is basically a proposal to redistribute suburban tax money to support Chicago schools in an effort to address the inequities of the state’s funding of education. While I believe that the state does a poor job of funding our schools, I don’t think this bill is the answer. Illinois ranks at an embarrassing 50th in the country for education funding, so yes, something needs to be done. This senate bill, however, would require our suburban districts to raise property taxes to recoup the much-needed funding that

the state would primarily give to Chicago schools. Property taxes in the suburbs are already high. An increase would especially hurt seniors on fixed incomes and families already struggling to make ends meet. I appreciate state Sen. Chris Nybo bringing much-needed awareness to this important issue that not only affects our children and their education but also would hurt all property taxpayers, and I applaud Nybo’s opposition to this proposal. Nybo points out student-focused, local solutions are the right way to address education

issues in Illinois. He understands how passage of this bill could negatively affect our taxpayers and our students, which is one reason I am voting for state Sen. Chris Nybo on Nov. 4. He cares about our children and their education, and he is vigilant about protecting taxpayers. It is important for anyone who cares about this issue to speak out against the School Funding Reform Act of 2014, also known as Senate Bill 16. Please contact your state legislators and urge them to oppose this legislation. MaryAnn Kalis Elmhurst

STATE SENATE – 24TH DISTRICT

STATE REPRESENTATIVE – 46TH DISTRICT

Do you think the Illinois Supreme Court ruling on a part of the pension reform bill passed should be tossed out as unconstitutional? Seeing as the court has yet to release a ruling, it is simply not known at this time what the limitations of an alternative plan to meet pension obligations will be. However, I believe that such reforms should be thoughtfully debated and discussed with the representation of all individuals affected by the various state pension systems. Will you vote for or against making the 67 percent income tax hike permanent if faced with such a vote? The 2011 income tax increase must expire, as provided in the Chris Nybo law. Not only did I oppose the idea of the tax increase, but I also sponsored measures R-Elmhurst to repeal it just after I was sworn into office in 2011. I would forcefully oppose and work against any effort to make this “temporary” tax increase permanent. ... Democratic leaders were not able to solve the state’s fiscal problems with the $26 billion generated by the deceptively passed tax increase. Where do you stand on proposed plans for a progressive income tax in Illinois? I do not support any efforts to move Illinois’ income tax structure from a flat rate to a progressive rate. This would be another income tax increase on a majority of Illinois citizens. ... After observing how the “temporary” income tax increase has failed its intended purpose, the fundamental flaws in a tax-and-spend regime are realized now more than ever.

Why are you the best candidate for state representative? I ran for state representative two years ago because I believed that middle-class families needed a strong voice on their behalf in Springfield. ... Last year, I worked hand in hand with local Democrats and Republicans to pass a monumental bill that allows DuPage County to save taxpayer dollars by streamlining services and government bodies. Do you think the Illinois Supreme Court ruling on a part of the pension reform Deb Conroy bill passed should be tossed out as unconstitutional? I supported Senate Bill D-Villa Park 1 under the advisement that the bill would pass Constitutional muster. ... If any component of Senate Bill 1 is ruled unconstitutional, I am ready to work with my colleagues, workers and other interested parties to work towards a responsible and fair plan that address the concerns of the courts. The outcome of the governor’s race notwithstanding, will you vote for or against making the 67 percent income tax hike permanent if faced with such a vote? Explain. I do not support extending the income tax increase because families in my district cannot afford to pay any more in taxes.

Do you think the Illinois Supreme Court ruling on a part of the pension reform bill passed should be tossed out as unconstitutional? It is essential that we find a solution which is both constitutionally viable and which produces substantial savings. I am encouraged by the framework proposed in [Senate Bill] 2404, which includes a guarantee to prevent future misuse of funds, would allow for substantial savings to the state, and is considered to be more likely to pass constitutional muster. Just as important, Illinois cannot afford to miss any future pension payments and deepen our pension burden. Will you vote for or against making the 67 percent income tax hike permanent Suzanne if faced with such a vote? Our most important focus should be expanding the Glowiak tax base by creating a business-friendly environment and getting the state back to D-Western work. We need to decrease the income tax rate and focus on cutting waste from Springs state spending and on getting our state back to work. ... Rolling back the rates will ultimately increase revenues by promoting economic growth and expanding the tax base. Where do you stand on proposed plans for a progressive income tax in Illinois? A graduated tax – or any other tax proposal – should not increase the tax burden on middle-class families, or simply mask an extension of the current rate. In the event of a constitutional referendum on a specific proposal, I will respect the voters of my district and represent their interest in Springfield.

DUPAGE COUNTY BOARD – 4TH DISTRICT Why are you the best candidate for the DuPage County Board? Experience. I have a positive record of addressing issues and representing the concerns of my constituents. I have worked to keep property taxes low and build partnerships with local officials to facilitate the implementation of ideas to improve DuPage County. ... I have lived in the area for 50 years. ... I know what it is like to maintain a home, family, a business and pay my bills. How should the county proceed with government consolidation? The initial Grant goal of consolidation is to reduce the cost of government while maintaining the same services. ... Since 2008, I have been working on the consolidation of fire pro- Eckhoff tection districts that cross over government boundaries, as well as departments R-Wheaton that are exclusive to one municipality. ... Ultimately, all government departments should be reviewed for consolidation purposes. What is your opinion on the measures the county has taken to address the heroin crisis? What is the future of heroin prevention in the county? DuPage County is leading the state and possibly the entire country in combating the heroin crisis. ... We worked with the Health Department to educate police officers and health officials on administering the drug Narcan. ... Twenty-three individuals have been saved as the result. ... [The DuPage Heroin Coalition Committee] is now exploring the possibility of setting up a support system that would assist recovering addicts. Why are you the best candidate for the DuPage County Board? I will bring a level of service and energy that the 4th District has been lacking. I would establish a full-time constituent service office that would be responsive to the immediate needs of residents of the 4th District. ... If you are looking for a County Board member to work for you and not take perks, I am your choice. How should the county proceed with government consolidation? The county should find redundancies in services first and straighten out the duties of local Jeremy government before we start cutting away at the vital layers. ... I look at snow removal as a prime example of where we could start with this. Right now, our Custer municipalities and townships split duties on the same roads. It would make more D-Glendale sense to have one level of government take care of this service. Heights What is your opinion on the measures the county has taken to address the heroin crisis? What is the future of heroin prevention in the county? I wish the county could have addressed this problem earlier. The future of heroin prevention is continuing to educate people about its dangers, helping users deal with addiction and holding dealers accountable for bringing heroin into our communities. ... I plan on being a proactive member of the County Board who will address these concerns head-on while working collaboratively with those on the frontlines.

Why are you the best candidate for state representative? Too many of our elected officials claim to uphold core values such as don’t lie, don’t steal and respect others yet have contradicted their words with their actions. ... I am going to Springfield to be a values-based servant leader whose actions will benefit all in Illinois. Do you think the Illinois Supreme Court ruling on a part of the pension reform bill passed should be tossed out as unconstitutional? Participating in a Heidi Holan self-guided retirement plan such as that proposed under HB 3303 would allow R-Glen Ellyn government employees to choose how much, when and where to invest their money while removing the threat of having their savings spent by corrupt politicians. The outcome of the governor’s race notwithstanding, will you vote for or against making the 67 percent income tax hike permanent if faced with such a vote? Explain. Against. We need to focus on creating an environment that supports growth.

STATE REPRESENTATIVE – 48TH DISTRICT Do you think the Illinois Supreme Court ruling on a part of the pension reform bill passed should be tossed out as unconstitutional? We can never again delay solutions so as to cause the pain and uncertainty retirees and future retirees have had to face. If we are to have a defined benefit pension system, the General Assembly must consistently review that system to ensure the proper balance of worker contributions, retirement ages, investment returns and state contributions. Will you vote for or against making the 67 percent income tax hike permanent Peter Breen if faced with such a vote? I am absolutely against this tax increase. The increase R-Lombard was proposed and passed as a temporary tax to deal with our pension liability crisis. Raising taxes did produce added revenue in the short run. However, while increasing taxes, we reduced the number of taxpayers, both individuals losing their jobs and businesses moving out of state. Where do you stand on proposed plans for a progressive income tax in Illinois? It’s disingenuous to refer to a progressive income tax as anything more than an attempt to raise income taxes on Illinois residents. This is a terrible idea. I am not in favor of an income tax increase for anyone in our state. Illinois government has a serious spending problem that cannot be solved by increasing revenue without accountability. It’s another in a long list of job killers and disincentives to locate a business in Illinois, especially businesses that create high-paying jobs. ... We need to pursue more economic growth, not less. Do you think the Illinois Supreme Court ruling on a part of the pension reform bill passed should be tossed out as unconstitutional? Obviously any reform bill will require compromises. The first part of the plan should be involvement of the voters in the search for common ground. If it is found unconstitutional, the basis for that decision should be addressed and an alternative chosen. Voters should be kept informed, not only at the state level but also on a district basis, with frequent updates from the elected representative and an opportunity for Marian input. Tomlinson Will you vote for or against making the 67 percent income tax hike permaD-Glen Ellyn nent if faced with such a vote? If elected, I will vote in accordance with the consensus of voters in District 48. I believe if an increased tax is necessary to restore financial stability to Illinois, the voters would approve such a tax. If they are aware of the consequences, they will be willing to sacrifice, but only if they see why it is necessary. Where do you stand on proposed plans for a progressive income tax in Illinois? A progressive income tax puts the burden of higher taxes on those more able to bear that burden. No one wants to pay taxes, but those who are better off benefit from the protections provided by the government (protections like safe food laws, better highways and protection from fraud). That presupposes a fair assessment of “income” which should include all sources and not shelter some income and raise the burden on other citizens.


2014 ELECTION CANDIDATES

Responses have been edited for space. Visit mysuburbanlife.com/election-central for complete profiles.

Why are you the best candidate for Congress? I am focused on policies to build a 21st-century economy where American innovation and hard work drives growth so we can once again compete globally, creating jobs here at home. Where do you stand on immigration reform? If our government will get serious about securing the border, we can then move on high-skilled visas, grant seasonal permits to agricultural workers and set up a process by which undocumented immigrants can get right with the law. If we work through small bills that fix targeted problems, we will succeed in creating a smarter, more effective immigration system. Peter What role should the U.S. play in regards to the ongoing conflicts throughout Roskam the Mideast, including conflicts instigated by terror groups? There are a R-Wheaton number of steps we can take besides putting boots on the ground, but we must take action now. … The United States should maintain its commitment to NATO but encourage our European allies to play a more proactive, constructive role in confronting global challenges such as [the Islamic State] and Russian aggression towards Ukraine.

Why are you the best candidate for DuPage County Board Chairman? I am a 42-year resident ... I was a former teacher and college professor. I was in labor/ management ... I also trained for Fortune 500 companies and was a small-business owner. When elected, I will serve full time unlike the incumbent. How should the county proceed with government consolidation? Consolidation should be done if it makes government more efficient and does not take away needed service to the residents of DuPage. ... Political Robert consequences should not factor into the decision. The mosquito abatement districts were to be included in the consolidation plan but have been avoided Peickert because of political pushback. I would look at the Election Commission and D-Elmhurst township government. What is your opinion on the measures the county has taken to address the heroin crisis? What is the future of heroin prevention in the county? A good start. ... The county should have addressed this earlier. We need to focus on the source – the dealers. There does not appear to be a plan to go after them. Medication and the misuse of medication can also lead to heroin addiction.

DUPAGE COUNTY CLERK

Why are you the best candidate for DuPage County clerk? I have a demonstrated passion for good government, especially our electoral process. I attend all election commission board meetings and have been carefully monitoring all aspects of running our elections. That’s what every county clerk should be doing. It’s time for election administration to be returned to the clerk’s office where it belongs. Until that transition occurs, transparency is overdue at the clerk’s office. What is the future of the clerk’s office? The county clerk’s office should go “back Jean to the future.” Until 1974, the clerk’s office administered the electoral process. A Kaczmarek county board ordinance separated that duty from the clerk’s office and created D-Glen Ellyn the election commission. However, that same ordinance permits the county clerk to be on the election commission board at no additional compensation. No clerk has done so ... As county clerk, I will immediately serve on the election commission. What should the relationship between the DuPage County Election Commission and the clerk be? For years, I’ve been advocating for consolidating the election commission with the county clerk’s office. I would champion this move as county clerk. Such a consolidation aligns perfectly with the county’s ongoing ACT Initiative – accountability, consolidation and transparency.

U.S. REPRESENTATIVE – 8TH DISTRICT Why are you the best candidate for Congress? In my first term, I’ve worked with Democrats and Republicans to move legislation forward not just on veterans issues but also on small businesses, cutting waste and fraud in government, federal contractor reform, manufacturing and military mothers. I’m proud of the work I did for the district by advocating for infrastructure investments … and securing vital flood assistance. The U.S. faces a $17 trillion (and rising) debt burden. Can this debt be paid down without raising taxes? Where can spending be cut? I support a balanced approach Tammy to government spending that eliminates waste and fraud, promotes job creation and Duckworth encourages entrepreneurship and innovation. ... We are in need of a deficit-reduction D-Hoffman plan that eliminates waste in government spending while protecting the key safety Estates nets that millions of hardworking Americans depend on. I co-sponsored the bipartisan PRIME Act...to address the $60 billion a year of Medicare waste and fraud. What role should the U.S. play in regards to the ongoing conflicts throughout the Middle East, including conflicts instigated by terror groups? I support airstrikes in Iraq, and I think that to destroy ISIS, we will ultimately have to follow them into Syria to deny them any sanctuary. However, we cannot allow ourselves to be drawn back into endless sectarian wars... Congress needs to debate a long-term strategy for not just defeating ISIS but also what the offramp from military intervention is when ISIS is defeated. Why are you the best candidate for Congress? As a colonel in the Marine Corps with 23 years of service and five combat tours to Iraq and Afghanistan, I am a leader above all else. Leadership is about being honest, selfless and fair to everyone. Leadership demands the ability to bring people together to solve complex problems with common-sense solutions, exactly what we need in Congress today. The U.S. faces a $17 trillion (and rising) debt burden. Can this debt be paid down without raising taxes? Where can spending be cut? When it comes to spending, the United States does not have a revenue problem. We have a spending Larry Kaifesh problem, and we can tackle that problem by eliminating the more than 160 reRdundant federal programs and streamlining bureaucratic processes. ... Moreover, Carpentersville we can bolster our economy by simplifying the tax code, reforming economic regulations, eliminating corporate welfare and pushing for energy independence. What role should the U.S. play in regards to the ongoing conflicts throughout the Middle East, including conflicts instigated by terror groups? I support destroying ISIS, but working in the region showed me that ISIS is just a symptom of a larger problem. Until the U.S. develops a strategy for tackling Islamic fundamentalism that involves internal reformation championed by moderate Muslim leaders and relies on expanded educational opportunities and the dissemination of useful information, we will continually be embroiled in the Middle East.

LBS/VPA

Why are you the best candidate for DuPage County clerk? My experience; I am the only candidate running that has worked in the county clerk’s office for over 18 years. I was hired as a tax revenue specialist and worked my way through the office to chief deputy county clerk. I have the working knowledge of every aspect of the office. What is the future of the clerk’s office? The future of the county clerk’s office is to continue to computerize, automate and improve online access. Paul Hinds What should the relationship between the DuPage County Election Commission and the clerk be? For the past 40 years, since the creation of the election R-Villa Park commission, the county clerk’s office has worked with the commission providing them new properties and annexations to ensure that each voter has the correct ballot style. I will be open to working with Chairman Cronin and the DuPage Election Commission to evaluate if it would be cost effective to have the county clerk’s office oversee elections. Special legislation would be required for the clerk’s office to conduct elections.

Why are you the best candidate for Congress? I will work across party lines to get the country moving forward. ... I will propose and support job creation legislation, investment in education, responsible deficit reduction, campaign finance reform, sensible immigration reform, women’s rights, increased minimum wages, comprehensive tax reform (both individual and corporate) and climate preservation. Where do you stand on immigration reform? I support the fundamentals of Senate Bill S744. This is a comprehensive bill that was designed to secure the border, Michael modernize and streamline the system and provide some type of a legalization Mason system for those already in the country. D-Naperville What role should the U.S. play in regards to the ongoing conflicts throughout the Mideast, including conflicts instigated by terror groups? The course that we have taken, forming a coalition of Arab states, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, United Arab Emirates, Qatar and Jordan is exactly the appropriate thing to do. We should not place combat troops in the region other than as advisers and trainers. ... The one sure thing that the U.S. can count on is that Israel will always be our staunchest ally in the region. Regardless of what transpires, the U.S. must always maintain the current relationship we have with Israel.

U.S. REPRESENTATIVE – 6TH DISTRICT

Why are you the best candidate for DuPage County Board chairman? I led a consolidation effort that has saved taxpayers a projected $80 million while still delivering the highest level of resident services. I led comprehensive ethics reform that strengthened the county’s Ethics Ordinance. ... I created the ACT Transparency Portal. ... Under my leadership, infrastructure improvements have been made. How should the county proceed with government consolidation? I believe the work to consolidate local units of government should, and must, continue. ... Doing Dan Cronin so will allow the county to function efficiently, offer the best in resident services R-Elmhurst and save taxpayer dollars. ... I will continue to thoughtfully and strategically lead the county’s consolidation effort through the DuPage ACT Initiative. What is your opinion on the measures the county has taken to address the heroin crisis? What is the future of heroin prevention in the county? I support the DuPage Narcan Program, a program that trains officers in the use of a nonaddictive drug that reverses potentially fatal heroin overdoses. ... Additionally, DuPage leaders and I have created the DuPage Coalition Against Heroin, an organization dedicated to raising awareness through education with a focus on prevention.

Having a concern about we’ve got a big-box store personal attack on Holder moving in. Ganja mart from I was just calling to express my concern about the entry in this week’s Sound Off, which indicated Eric Holder as being a racist. I was very disappointed to see this printed and I was surprised that your organization would print something in your newspaper that was an attack of such a personal nature since that’s clearly listed as one of the guidelines of the Sound Off section. I can’t imagine an attack of a more personal nature than calling someone a racist, especially that’s not founded in any fact. I hope you’ll print some sort of retraction or discontinue this practice in the future.

Boulder, Colo., is planning a former grocery store on Ogden Avenue. Who did they pay off? Just another example of politics as usual in corrupt Illinois.

Continued from page 18

Swimming is not ‘rich kid’s sport,’ it’s necessity

Sorry I didn’t make it last Saturday to the send-off for McChesney & Miller, but I just wanted you guys to know how important you were to all of us, and Giesche Shoes, too – you’re going to be missed. Thanks for everything.

Consider Lucky’s Market for McChesney & Miller Now that the proposed development for McChesney’s property has failed, please encourage the village to pursue getting Lucky’s Market into the store. They are a growing chain in the Midwest. Lucky’s Market is now occupying a Kroger’s, which closed in Ann Arbor, Mich. This is not Lucky’s Supermarkets from the West Coast, just Lucky’s Market (from Colorado, I believe). Check their website. Young management staff, fresh foods, fresh approach! We can’t afford to be without a grocery store in the center of our village.

Mariano’s, consider more neighborly behavior Hi, I’m calling about the Mariano’s grocery store in Western

Springs. I think they’re being bad neighbors. During the Lyons Township High School football games, they are towing cars in their parking lot and restricting traffic around the entire mall. The people they are doing this to are their customers and their neighbors and they’re making people extremely angry. There’s been a mall there for 60 years, and there’s never been a problem or any kind of action like this before. So I think Mariano’s needs to reconsider their stance on the way they’re treating potential customers on football games at Lyons Township High School.

Why close event to media? The millionaire Bruce Rauner running for governor was at an event in La Grange for Republicans, and they conveniently closed it off to the press and the media. Why? Was he afraid that he’d be asked a few tough questions and wouldn’t know how to answer without his prompters and Eli Gold of “Good Wife” fame running his campaign and helping him out? Just wondering.

You purchase an $80 ticket for the 24th Annual Mayor’s Community Charity Ball at Alta Villa Banquets and a portion of the proceeds from your ticket will go to support the charity of your choice. Everyone is invited to attend. Are you a newer resident? This is a great opportunity to meet your neighbors, business leaders, elected officials as well as to learn more about all of the good being done by local Addison charities. Are you simply looking for a night out with your significant other? Why not help a great cause while also enjoying dinner and dancing, as well as a cash raffle and a silent auction featuring more than 300 great items?

Nearly $60,000 was raised last year. Your participation can help feed the hungry.

To the Electors of the State of Illinois: The purpose of a state constitution is to establish a structure for government and laws. There are three ways to initiate change to the Illinois Constitution: (1) a constitutional convention may propose changes to any part; (2) the General Assembly may propose changes to any part; or (3) a petition initiative may propose amendments limited to structural and procedural subjects contained in the Legislative Article. The people of Illinois must approve any changes to the Constitution before they become effective.

PROPOSED AMENDMENT TO SECTION 8.1 OF ARTICLE I OF THE ILLINOIS CONSTITUTION ARTICLE I – BILL OF RIGHTS SECTION 8.1. CRIME VICTIMS’ VICTIM’S RIGHTS. (a) Crime victims, as defined by law, shall have the following rights as provided by law: (1) The right to be treated with fairness and respect for their dignity and privacy and to be free from harassment, intimidation, and abuse throughout the criminal justice process. (2) The right to notice and to a hearing before a court ruling on a request for access to any of the victim’s records, information, or communications which are privileged or confidential by law. (3) (2) The right to timely notification of all court proceedings. (4) (3) The right to communicate with the prosecution. (5) (4) The right to be heard at any post-arraignment court proceeding in which a right of the victim is at issue and any court proceeding involving a post-arraignment release decision, plea, or sentencing. make a statement to the court at sentencing. (6) (5) The right to be notified of information about the conviction, the sentence, the imprisonment, and the release of the accused. (7) (6) The right to timely disposition of the case following the arrest of the accused. (8) (7) The right to be reasonably protected from the accused throughout the criminal justice process. (9) The right to have the safety of the victim and the victim’s family considered in denying or fixing the amount of bail, determining whether to release the defendant, and setting conditions of release after arrest and conviction. (10) (8) The right to be present at the trial and all other court proceedings on the same basis as the accused, unless the victim is to testify and the court determines that the victim’s testimony would be materially affected if the victim hears other testimony at the trial. (11) (9) The right to have present at all court proceedings, subject to the rules of evidence, an advocate and or other support person of the victim’s choice. (12) (10) The right to restitution. (b) The victim has standing to assert the rights enumerated in subsection (a) in any court exercising jurisdiction over the case. The court shall promptly rule on a victim’s request. The victim does not have party status. The accused does not have standing to assert the rights of a victim. The court shall not appoint an attorney for the victim under this Section. Nothing in this Section shall be construed to alter the powers, duties, and responsibilities of the prosecuting attorney The General Assembly may provide by law for the enforcement of this Section. (c) The General Assembly may provide for an assessment against convicted defendants to pay for crime victims’ rights. (d) Nothing in this Section or any law enacted under this Section creates a cause of action in equity or at law for compensation, attorney’s fees, or damages against the State, a political subdivision of the State, an officer, employee, or agent of the State or of any political subdivision of the State, or an officer or employee of the court. or in any law enacted under (e) Nothing in this Section or any law enacted under this Section shall be construed as creating (1) a basis for vacating a conviction or (2) a ground for any relief requested by the defendant appellate relief in any criminal case.

EXPLANATION The Constitution sets forth substantial rights for crime victims. The proposed amendment expands certain current rights: 1) Victims are currently entitled to fairness and respect throughout the criminal justice process. The amendment would also provide that they shall be protected from harassment, intimidation and abuse. 2) Victims currently can make a statement to the court when a criminal defendant is sentenced to punishment. The amendment would allow a victim to be heard at any proceeding that involves the victim’s rights, and any proceeding involving a plea agreement, release of the defendant or convicted individual, or sentencing. 3) Victims may obtain information about conviction, sentencing, imprisonment or release. The amendment would require prosecutors and the court to notify victims of those events before they happen. The amendment would also grant additional rights to crime victims: 1) A victim would have a right to formal notice and a hearing before the court rules on any request for access to the victim’s information which is privileged or confidential information. 2) A victim would have the right to have the judge consider the victim’s safety and the safety of his or her family before deciding whether to release a criminal defendant, setting the amount of bail to be paid before release, or setting conditions of release after arrest or conviction. 3) The victim would have the right to assert his or her rights in any court with jurisdiction over the criminal case, but would not have the same rights as the prosecutor or the criminal defendant and the court could not appoint an attorney for the victim at taxpayer expense. The proposed amendment would not alter the powers, duties or responsibilities of the prosecutor. Further, a criminal defendant would not be able to challenge his or her conviction on the basis of a failure to follow these provisions.

FORM OF BALLOT Proposed Amendment to the 1970 Illinois Constitution Explanation of Amendment The proposed amendment makes changes to Section 8.1 of Article I of the Illinois Constitution, the Crime Victims’ Bill of Rights. The proposed amendment would expand certain rights already granted to crime victims in Illinois, and give crime victims the ability to enforce their rights in a court of law. You are asked to decide whether the proposed amendment should become part of the Illinois Constitution.

YES NO

TOGETHER WE CAN MAKE IT HAPPEN HOLLYWOOD

JW Realty and Kit Homes Part of Area History SPONSORED BY

By Diane Krieger Spivak Based on principles like integrity, attention to personal service and detailed follow-through, JW Reedy Realty has been helping customers discover their dream homes in towns like Villa Park and Lombard for more than 85 years. Part of this long record of success in local real estate can be traced to the historic kit homes that were shipped to the area by rail from stores like Sears and Montgomery Wards. “The lumber and pieces were numbered, and you put them together almost like tinker toys,” Jean Reedy Baren recalls. Her grandfather, J.W. “Jack” Reedy, founded the business in 1928 in Villa Park. In those early days, home buyers would browse through a catalog and select a kit home, which would arrive by rail car and then be trucked to the home site ready for as-

sembly. With parts created by companies like Lewis-Liberty and Michigan-based Sterling, the walls, rafters, plumbing, fixtures, flooring and other components of the kit homes were numbered according to the floor plan instruction booklets that came as part of the package. Billed as “modern homes” by Sears, the kit homes remained popular for years, with construction continuing into the 1940s. These quaint homes have even been recognized by the Villa Park Historical Society and Visitors Center, which has certified 11 existing homes in the town as original Sears catalogue homes.

Restaurant reviews

Japanese cuisine is on a roll at Sushi Mono WHEATON – Food cravings have a way of burrowing down into the absolute pit of my stomach and staying there until satiated. Like a troll under a bridge controlling the action, my stomach often waves a hand at the trifles of a salad and instead demands a giant slice of pizza. While I try to stay strong in these moments, I both believe that life is too short to deny cravings for too long, and that if I do deny them, I will erupt like Cookie Monster from “Sesame Street,” devouring all in my wake. Thankfully, I was asked to review Sushi Mono in downtown Wheaton just as I was having a minor craving flare-up. It turns out to be a good suburban destination to scratch that particular itch, complete with large portions, a variety of different rolls and a classy atmosphere to tie it together. Its dramatic interior carries red and black tones throughout, for the feel of an upscale sushi restaurant. Well-decorated, it avoids being too busy with random knick-knacks. The dining room with its exposed barrel ceiling is staffed by a generous wait crew, who were all appropriately attentive. For my first visit, I decided to cast the widest net possible – no fish pun intended – and get a sushi trio special. The three rolls were preceded by a standard miso soup in a fun little container, plus a lovely mixed green salad with a creamy citrus dressing. The three players for the main event were dragon, shiitake mushroom and spicy tuna rolls, all with big positives in their own ways. First, the dragon, whose savory eel, shrimp tempura and tobiko – fish roe – combination was a welcome and warm change of pace from classic sushi. The shrimp had a nice crunch, adding texture to the roll. It probably could have used a dash more of unagi sauce, but it is also one of my

The mushroom roll was an interesting one, with salty, savory flavor from the soy sauce marinade. It had a nice chewy texture and was balanced with a hit of sweetness. And the spicy tuna was actually spicy, a relative rarity for many sushi spots. It was light on the mayo, which also was welcome. During a second visit, I decided I needed to scratch my itch just a bit further, and snared a pair of nigiri – sweet egg and salmon toro. I had never tried the former before, but was pleasantly surprised. The egg remained the dominating flavor, but had hints of salty and sweet that added a lot of depth. The salmon toro was perfectly fatty and served at a good temperature, which is important in such cuisine. I ended my foray into the world of Sushi Mono with a gigantic bowl of tonkotsu ramen, another deep and notso-guilty pleasure. The wonderful smell of pork broth hit me from tables away, and the comforting taste backed it up in a great way. It was surprisingly creamy in texture, and its noodles were just right.

Rams suffer third straight narrow loss By DAN SANTAROMITA dsantaromita@shawmedia.com SOUTH ELGIN – Glenbard East football is nothing if not exciting. The Rams just need to work on winning the down-to-thewire games they’ve had in recent weeks. After losing back-to-back overtime games, Glenbard East lost at South Elgin 42-36 in a back-and-forth game. The Rams are now 3-4 and on the brink of playoff elimination. At best they can get five wins and hope to qualify via the playoff points tiebreaker. “We haven’t finished ball

games,” East coach John Walters said. “We’ve been right there. What more do you want from your guys? They are getting themselves in positions to win games and that’s all we can ask, to have an opportunity. We’ve had an opportunity three weeks in a row.” The Rams (3-4, 1-4 Upstate Eight Valley) scored on their first two drives on touchdown runs by Dominic Wilberton to take a 14-0 lead. The Storm (4-3, 3-2 UEC Valley) fought back with two second-quarter touchdowns for a 15-14 lead. East led 21-15 at halftime on a 30-yard touchdown reception by Joey Moore.

The only score of the third quarter was a Nick Menken touchdown reception for the Storm. The fourth quarter had plenty of fireworks. The Storm scored again to extend the lead to 29-21 with 9:56 left. On the Rams’ ensuing drive Mitch Luttrell caught a 24-yard touchdown from Abruzino, and the same duo connected for the 2-point conversion to tie the game. “It was pretty intense,” Luttrell said. “My quarterback saw the read and made a good throw.” Both teams scored on their next drives, but the Rams led 36-35 thanks to a blocked extra

point. Wilberton had his third touchdown of the game with 3:44 left to cap off a drive that included a fourth-down conversion. Derek Kumerow’s third touchdown catch from 29 yards out put South Elgin back in front with 1:12 left. The Rams got to the Storm 20-yard line on the last-gasp drive, but an interception ended the game. Glenbard East had six turnovers, including one out of the South Elgin end zone, after turning the ball over seven times against Bartlett. “We’re a good football team,” Walters said. “There’s nobody in the world that can write

whatever they want to write, blog whatever they want to blog to make me think anything different. This is a good football team. We just haven’t found a way to close anything out in the last three weeks. We can very easily be 6-1 right now based on the games we’ve played.” Glenbard East hosts Metea Valley in the final home game of the season at 7:30 p.m. today. The Rams will try to regroup after another gut-wrenching defeat. “It is stressful,” Luttrell said. “Just grind it out for the rest of the week, practice, prepare, everything else. It’s just the little things.”

Montini football outplayed in rivalry game By DAN SANTAROMITA dsantaromita@shawmedia.com

Game breakdown

WHEATON – From the start of the game, it was clear the St. Francis football team was fired up to play and beat Montini. The Spartans used that emotion to its fullest in a 31-7 win against their old rivals. Montini is now 4-3 and 1-1 in the Chicago Catholic League Green and in need of one win in the final two games to get into the playoffs. “We’re going to have to regroup,” Montini head coach Chris Andriano said. “We don’t have much time to do it now. There’s only two games left and we got to win one of these next two games. It’s not going to be easy, we got two tough games left.” Montini closes with home games against Fenwick and Marmion. Marmion beat St. Francis 17-13 in Week 3 and Fenwick beat Marmion 49-13 in Week 6. That won’t mean much on gameday, but it does show both are quality opponents. St. Francis won on senior night to finish the home slate on a high note. It was St. Francis’ first win against Montini since 2009. “It means everything,” St. Francis senior Michael Shaw said. “To these seniors it

It feels so good to win. Senior night, no better way to go out.” Shaw had several big plays in the first half to get the Spartans going. The senior receiver broke a tackle off a screen pass and went 70 yards for the game’s first touchdown. On the next possession he had back-toback catches of 37 and 36 yards to set up a 4-yard touchdown

run by quarterback Clint Bobowski. Shaw had 153 of his 177 yards by halftime. The Broncos cut the lead to 14-7 on an 81-yard touchdown catch by Justin Blake.

Rams enjoying revival of volleyball program after hot start By DAN SANTAROMITA dsantaromita@shawmedia.com LOMBARD – Glenbard East setter Sam Bell can play the misdirection game with the number of hitters she can set this season, and it’s paying off for a big season for the Rams so far. The Rams are 20-8 after recent wins against West Aurora (25-17, 25-12) and Metea Valley (25-21, 21-25, 25-21). Glenbard East enters its own Autumnfest tournament this weekend with a six-match winning streak. “That’s better than the last two years we’ve been on this team,” senior middle hitter Sarah Murphy said. “This is one of the best teams that even coach said that we’ve had in a

while, so we’re going to take it as far as we can go.” A big reason for the improvement is the balanced attack the Rams have this season. Meghan Hanewall was a star for the Rams last year and is currently a freshman outside hitter at Clemson, but the Rams didn’t have enough secondary options on offense last year and became predictable. This season, Murphy, Sammie Sarles, Emily Hamaker and Allison Farrell are all quality hitters. “It’s definitely different because I’m able to set a lot more people and move the ball around,” Bell said. “The other teams don’t know who I’m setting. When Meghan was here everyone in the gym knew I was setting her. I’m able to

mix it up this year and give people opportunities to put the ball down, and they’re putting the ball down when I give it to them. It’s really exciting.” Another impressive thing about the team is its youth. Bell and Murphy are thirdyear varsity players and seniors, but Allison Achenbaugh and Viky Bozenovaite are the only other seniors on the roster. The Rams received the No. 6 seed in the De La Salle sectional when the draw came out last week. East will compete in the Little Village regional and opens against No. 11 Addison Trail. Erica Benson - ebenson@shawmedia.com “It’s exciting being able to be in this atmosphere, having Glenbard East’s Jessie Spontak hits the ball Oct. 9 during a home the success we’re having this match against West Aurora. The Rams reached the 20-win mark and year,” Bell said. are enjoying one of their best seasons in recent history.

MORE BEARS COVERAGE AT CHICAGOFOOTBALL.COM

CHICAGO FOOTBALL.COM Hub Arkush most improved defenses in the league. What is the most impressive part of all that? The Bears spent serious money in free agency to bring in Jared Allen and Lamarr Houston and to re-sign Jeremiah Ratliff, and those three have contributed very little to date. In fact, Houston has been practically invisible. Another big assist was supposed to come from the return of health of All Pros Charles “Peanut” Tillman and Lance Briggs, but Tillman was lost for the season early and Briggs was in street clothes again versus the Falcons as the Bears defense played its best game in years. To be clear, the Falcons may not be very good, but they entered the Bears game with the third-rated offense in the league. It performed much better in putting up 37 points against New Orleans, the NFL’s fourth rated scoring defense in 2013, and 56 points

Don’t miss seeing ‘Chicago Football Now’ Watch Hub Arkush and the rest of our coverage team break down this weekend’s Bears game on “Chicago Football Now” at 10:30 a.m. Saturday on WCIU The U or at 2:30 p.m. Saturday on The U Too. on Tampa Bay. As if that wasn’t enough of a challenge for Mel and his marauders, all four of his top linebackers were out, his “new” starting nickel, Sherrick McManis, was inactive, and Chris Conte once again went down for the count early in the second half. The Bears responded by holding Atlanta to 287 yards of total offense, and 111 of that came on the Falcons first possession of the second half (Atlanta lost 25 yards on the drive from penalties). The Bears also held Atlanta to 4-for-13 on third down (31 percent) and sacked Matt Ryan four times, even though Atlanta entered the game sixth in the NFL in sacks allowed.

IT’S ALL ABOUT DRIVE

There is still more. With Briggs and Tillman on the sidelines, who would wear the green dot versus Atlanta? You know, the guy who would call the defenses and make sure everybody was in the right spot. It’s almost always a linebacker, but with second-year player Khaseem Greene, undrafted rookie free agent Christian Jones and Darryl Sharpton, who was signed off the street just a little over two weeks ago, what was Tucker to do? Sharpton was a four-year veteran of the Texans, so he was the obvious choice. Tucker and linebacker coach Reggie Herring apparently coached the heck out of him, because watching the game you never would have known it wasn’t Briggs at the steering wheel. Did Tucker blink or whine when Tillman went down again? No, he actually coached up first round draft choice Kyle Fuller to where he’s a lock for all rookie, probably on his way to a Pro Bowl and may just be the Defensive Rookie of the Year. Tucker’s also brought this defense along while playing significant minutes with rookie tackles Ego Ferguson

and Will Sutton, rotating Conte, Ryan Mundy, Danny McCray and rookie Brock Vereen at safety, and with no idea who his linebackers will be from week-to-week since Shea McClellin went down early with a broken hand. There is still a great deal of work to do, and the suspicion is that this is still not a playoff-caliber defense. But we thought Tucker was getting re-armed with all kinds of talent this past offseason, and instead he’s been forced to juggle aging veterans and untested youth at every level, with none of them other than Fuller and, at times, Willie Young and Stephen Paea playing at a truly high level. It’s still early, and who knows how this defense will look after back-to-back games against Tom Brady and Aaron Rodgers? But right now, it looks light years better than it did in 2013. Since Mel Tucker was the target of the bulk of the complaints from media and fans alike about that dismal performance, how about we give him a little credit for the excellent job he’s done so far this year?

As the Bears left Atlanta and Week 6 of the NFL season in their rear view mirror, I found myself wondering: Why aren’t the legion of Bears fans who’ve spent the better part of the past 15 months screaming for defensive coordinator Mel Tucker’s head now waiting in long lines for the chance to sing his praises? As is everything in the National Football League, the highs are always a bit too high and the lows often far too low. But here are the facts: The Bears defense was one of the worst in the NFL last year, ranking 30th in total defense, 32nd versus the run and 30th in points allowed. One of the main reasons they were so bad was they were 26th in quarterback sack percentage and 25th in third down efficiency. Following the Falcons game, the Bears defense stood 17th in total defense. They actually are now 10th versus the run and 21st in points allowed, and they are 10th in quarterback-sack percentage and 12th in third-down efficiency. Not a quantum leap, perhaps, but it’s enough to qualify the Bears as one of the
