Fair not a free ride

Bureau Fair Board president breaks down costs of the county fair

By Goldie Rapp

“The concert is a tough gig, but as long as I’m president, we will keep having them because that’s what I think is holding the fair together.”

Bureau County Fair Board President Pete Reviglio on the $75,000 cost for this year’s Dustin Lynch concert

PRINCETON — For years, county fairs have been meant to be the highlight of summer — a time to kick back, celebrate and enjoy some traditional and new activities at one’s local fairgrounds.

Unfortunately though, that fun doesn’t come cheap. And it doesn’t help the state has drastically cut funding for county fairs, which has threatened some area fairs to close their gates for good.

Despite this financial trend on the state level, the Bureau County Fair continues to be a profitable event. While “going strong” isn’t the description Bureau County Fair Board President Pete Reviglio would use, he said the fair is chugging along and no longer relies on state money.

Most years, the fair either breaks even or makes a little profit that helps boost monies for the next year’s event,

Two years ago, the fair board received notice from the state it would stop sending money but asked the board to continue sending required paperwork for the funding.

Reviglio said while it was a joke to the board to have to send in the paperwork, they followed orders and doing so paid off. At the last minute this year, the board received a $13,000 check they were able to put toward financing this year’s fair.

“They haven’t totally cut us off,” Reviglio said.

Going forward, the board will continue

to not rely on funding from the state, and if a check does come through the mail, it will be used as nothing more than a bonus.

Today, a big portion of the fair is covered by sponsorships and entry fees. Money raised from the fair’s annual fundraiser Night at the Races also helps with costs, as do revenues made from renting out the fair buildings in the winter. Reviglio said about 30 percent of the fair expenses are covered by these fees.

THE MAKING OF A PARADE

Expanding the financial field EDCNCI has a new leader

By Eric Engel eengel@bcrnews.com

First, an invitation letter is sent out to all the previous parade entries from the year before.

Around the same time, the Homestead Festival website gets updated for the year, and those interested in signing up to be an entry in the parade are advised to download a form on the website that asks for a description of the entry and what sort of room with be needed in a line-up slot.

Ivan Baker thinks of economic development like a garden with a limited amount of time to sell your produce before it dies.

Baker is the recently hired chief executive officer of Ivan the Economic Baker Development Corporation of North Central Illinois; a newly-found organization marketing the valuable resources of Bureau, Putnam and LaSalle counties to the right investors outside the tri-county area.

In economic development, Baker said we cannot think about ourselves but about our children and grandchildren.

“The leadership here is optimistic about being realistic and achieving goals, and we’re trying to create more investment, expand the tax base and create more jobs,” he said.

“More people would stay in the area if there were better jobs and an opportunity to raise a family.”

45th annual Homestead Festival parade ready to step off Saturday

By Goldie Rapp grapp@bcrnews.com

PRINCETON — The Bureau County Homestead Festival parade is an event enjoyed by thousands each year.

The well-known display, which proceeds down Princeton’s Main Street, offers a little something for everyone — whether you enjoy loud sirens, paying your respects to veterans, seeing classmates from high school or danc-

ing to the beats provided by the South Shore Drill Team — the Homestead parade provides a little taste of all those things and more.

What does it take to plan?

Each year, the parade committee gets together at the end of May to begin planning, once the grand marshal and festival theme is announced.

The committee includes Katie Dye, Terry Madsen, Paula Lowe and Deb Kirley.

Gary Swanson is 2016 Homestead grand marshal grapp@bcrnews.com

PRINCETON — His dedication to the community and willingness to go the extra mile to put a smile on someone’s face is what earned Gary “Frog” Swanson the honor of being this year’s Bureau County Homestead Festival grand marshal.

Some may recognize Swanson as the man behind the sound system at various area events or consider themselves a fan of his music with the Generics Goodies Band, or maybe one can still remember when he used to patrol the streets as a Princeton police officer.

Under his many hats, Swanson has accomplished many great tasks for his community and continues to keep the community groovin’, thriving and having fun.

“I like to give back to the community because I’ve been successful in my careers, and I’m glad to be able to do it. It’s important to keep the community growing and keeping things happening,” he said.

Swanson was born and raised in Princeton and is a 1965 graduate of Princeton High School. He graduated from the University of Wisconsin in

1970, where he earned a degree in industrial technology with an emphasis in electronics and radio television broadcasting.

In 1974, he married his wife, Janet. They had one daughter and are the grandparents of two.

Throughout the years, Swanson worked parttime as a polisher at Jostens, was a truck driver for Haussler Construction, a bus driver for Princeton Elementary Schools, and an engineer and announcer at WZOE radio. Swanson also worked as a dispatcher at the Bureau County Sheriff’s Office before serving as an officer for the Tiskilwa Police Department from 1971 to 1973. After finding an appreciation for law enforcement, Swanson went through police training at the University of Illinois and in 1974, he accepted a patrolman job with Princeton Police Department. During his time there, he earned numerous certificates in police training and was promoted to investigator before retiring in 2004.

As a retiree, Swanson continues to work parttime at the Bureau County Courthouse in security and also owns GES Snow Removal Services and GES Sound.

Parade From Page 1 Promotion for the parade is also done when committee members visit high schools and organizations to formally invite them to join in on the event. The Homestead Parade doesn’t happen for free. Sponsorships are also collected from area businesses and organizations interested in helping bring back the larger attractions in the parade. These include the Jesse White Tumblers, South Shore Drill Team of Chicago and Metropolitan Youth Drill Team of the Quad Cities.

Later on in the planning stages, three people who remain anonymous are chosen to judge the entries in the line-up for various categories. By this time, parade entry applications begin to file

Swanson has always had a passion for music.

In the late ‘60s, he played in a band with Keith Knudson who went on to play drums with the Doobie Brothers. Throughout the years, Swanson has been part of several bands aside from The Generics Goodies Band, including Shillings, Junction, Coachmen and Alibi.

Swanson also built a recording studio where his current band and other local singers have recorded music.

Around Halloween and Christmas, Swanson and his family are the ones who drive around town with blow-up displays on a trailer and play fun music to get families in the spirit of the holiday.

“Our pay is when the kids and parents come running to the float for candy and when the whole neighborhood starts dancing and grooving to the music,” he said.

During several community events during the years, Swanson has provided sound and entertainment for all sorts and sizes.

You may have seen him setting up sound at Bureau County Convoy for Cancer, Bureau County Relay for Life, March of Dimes Walk, Bureau County United Way ban-

in, and the parade committee sits down to determine a line-up.

Madsen said each year the committee likes to switch things up to provide a new entertaining show. He said sometimes there can be arguments and disagreements on which entry should go where, but those differences are always resolved.

A patriotic front is always set it place to lead the parade. Usually that front includes veterans, police vehicles, the Freedom Flag and the grand marshal.

Once a line-up is determined, the work is about finished until the Friday evening before the parade. On that day, the committee meets at the set-up locations and marks out where each entry will line-up and how they will file onto Main Street. A map of the entry locations is drawn up that night and is passed out to

While Swanson was honored to have been chosen, he said there are many other people more deserving of the reward.

“I’ve watched them

This year, there are 127 entries for the parade. Kirley, who keeps track of all the entries, said some years the parade loses some entries, and other years they gain entries. It just depends on the year, she said.

But overall, compared to year’s past, the Homestead Parade has grown steadily in size.

“We like to think it’s because more people are getting involved,” Madsen said.

While it takes a lot of organization and planning to put together this event, the highly

work in the community, and no matter whether you go to the Moose Lodge or Elks Lodge, Lions Club, you can find those individuals who are dedicated day-in and day-out, and they make it work. I admire those people,” he said.

positive feedback the committee gets each year helps motivate the volunteers to come back and lend a helping hand once again.

“When you drive down Main Street Friday afternoon and see the chairs already lining the street, you think they must have like last year’s parade, and that really makes you feel good,” Madsen said.

With this year being the 15th anniversary of Sept. 11, Madsen said there could be an opportunity for people to pay their respects.

“We hope people come out and remembers it’s a fun, family event and in keeping with the Glory Days theme, we hope people show their appreciation for the veterans, police and first responders,” he said.

Always a family of God

Record rainfall in August

New Bedford Christian Church celebrating 150 years eengel@bcrnews.com

NEW BEDFORD — The New Bedford Christian Church (NBCC) will be celebrating 150 years of fellowship with a luncheon and festivities Sunday, Sept. 18.

According to a historical context written by longtime NBCC member Karla Gearhart, the church began in 1866, and was organized

by George Mapes. There were 22 charter members, and in August 1868, the fellowship voted to erect a building. Heading into the 20th Century, the congregation struggled with no permanent ministry, but pioneer preachers held things together until 100 new members were added during a three-week revival in 1900.

Many pastors came and went through the 20th Century, preaching the word of God as their duty called. Following the addition of educational rooms and a remodeled sanctuary, a new Fellowship Hall was built onto the NBCC in 1983. Gearhart said a long-range planning committee was formed in the mid-1990s to examine the possibility of building a new church,

and in December 1999, the first service was held in the new building.

Gearhart said fellowship groups and youth programs have been an integral part of NBCC’s history, and although the congregations and structures have changed as generations come and go, the message of truth has remained throughout.

“It has been 150 years since a group of people banded together to form a small church in a little village in Northern Illinois. Through the years, the one common thread that has remained is that the congregation is always a family of God,” Gearhart said, noting NBCC is small, yet mighty in their service to their Savior.

To celebrate the 150year anniversary on Sept.

18, the regular service at 10:30 a.m. will be followed by a luncheon in the Fellowship Hall. At 1:30 p.m., there will be a special program in the church with cake and ice cream to end the festivities at 3 p.m.

Gearhart said everyone is welcome to join the celebration at New Bedford Christian Church, 434 S. Main St. in New Bedford.

CHAMPAiGN – The statewide average rainfall for August was 6.89 inches, 3.30 inches above normal and the wettest August on record, according to Illinois State Climatologist Jim Angel, Illinois State Water Survey, University of Illinois.

This year’s rainfall just beat the old record of 6.86 inches set back in 1977. The highest rainfall total was in Sterling with 14.01 inches.

A damp July with a very wet August combined equals the wettest July-August on record. The rainfall total of July-August was 13.74 inches, which is 6.07 inches above normal. It beat the old record for July-August of 12.83 inches, set back in 1915.

The highest two-month rainfall total was in Downers Grove with 22.93 inches of rain.

The two-month average rainfall was above normal for almost the entire state, except for small portions of Lake and McHenry counties. Southern Illinois, south of Chicago, and northeast of St. Louis received 9 to 12 inches above normal. Some parts of Southern Illinois experienced 12 to 15 inches above normal.

The statewide average temperature for August was 75.9 degrees, 2.3 degrees above normal. That is tied with 1943 as the 15th warmest August on record.

The average high temperatures were close to normal.

In fact, most of Illinois never exceeded the low to mid-90s in August. However, high humidity levels did not allow temperatures to cool off at night.

Fair From Page 1

What sets Bureau fair apart from others?

People from all over the surrounding area — from the Quad Cities to Chicago suburbs — flock to the fair each for the annual concert. While a lot of fairs in the area have had to do away with big concerts because of funding, Bureau County continues to uphold tradition, even through the entertainment comes with a large ticket price.

This year’s Dustin Lynch concert cost about $75,000.

“The concert is a tough gig, but as long as I’m president, we will keep having them because that’s what I think is holding the fair together,” Reviglio said. “Even if we took a small loss on it —in the long run, it brings people to the fair.”

The North American Midway Carnival is also another attraction Bureau County has over other county fairs that no longer provide a carnival.

Reviglio said with the longtime relationship with North American Midway, it comes at no cost, and the fair board gets a cut of what they make each year. In years past, the fair board has received anywhere between $15,000 and $20,000 from carnival sales.

‘We do make a little from it, and honestly, that’s mostly where our profit comes from,” he said.

Attendance is key Getting people to the Bureau Coun-

Financial From Page 1 Baker grew up in a small town in western Kansas, so he is aware of the advantages and challenges of promoting a rural community. He believes gaining ground in the global economy is simply a matter utilizing what he calls the most valuable resource … good people.

“I’m amazed when people talk about the advantages of an area for business, and they’ll talk about everything except the people,” Baker said, stating residents manage, work at and buy from the businesses they’ve built.

“When people don’t show pride in their homes and businesses, why would anyone else show pride in that community?”

Throughout his 35-year career, Baker feels good about the $2.5 billion of capital investments he’s been involved with, but he recognizes it takes great effort from many hard workers to keep the value of investments increasing.

“People have to be positive about the future because it will generate positive actions,” he said, adding his time as a Scout leader taught him basic principles such as trustworthiness, loyalty and kindness. “If I don’t have the facts, I will find them, and if I tell someone some-

ty Fair is key. Attendance numbers are the huge factor in being able to provide the extra fun, free entertainment, Reviglio said, adding many fairs in the area charge a parking fee to get in, however, in Bureau County the fee is $5 a person.

The money made from this fee helps cover the entertainment like this year’s Wild World of Animals show, which cost about $10,000.

“There has been talk about doing away with paying for a show like that and trying to do away with charging at the gate, but I think we need that money at the gate to keep the fair going. It’s plain and simple,” Reviglio said.

Last year, the fair had one of the best attendance rates in a long time, which helped cover the cost of last year’s event and helped cushion this year’s planning.

While numbers are still being calculated for this year, Reviglio said attendance was down a bit because of the rainy weather.

A big factor that hurts the fair’s attendance rate each year is the timing. Fair week just happens to fall during the time students are returning to school. Changing the weekend of a fair is a hassle, Reviglio said, and won’t happen in Bureau County.

“Anything you put on in the evening, it can’t run late because even parents during a week night don’t want to be out until midnight or 1 a.m.,” he said. “But, if you look at the numbers the fair gets on a Saturday and compare them to what they could get on a Thursday and Friday, it would be great.”

thing, it’s because I’ve verified it as the truth ... They can rely on me as an ally.”

Baker said Illinois is a great state to be a part of, but we still must have some financial sense about us. He added the tri-county region has a good workforce and people who love the area, but it’s very easy for human beings to dwell on the negative.

“I can’t do that, and I wasn’t hired to do that,” he said, noting he accepts the current financial state of Illinois so he can work to improve it, rather than lamenting on problems from year’s past. “I’m so

excited about our board because they are proactive and know things will take time.”

Baker has played the piano since he was 4; he has been involved in theater; and he and his wife enjoy dancing … because he believes when you step back and be creative, you get the juices flowing rather than looking at one number at a time.

“In economics you’ve got to cooperate, compete, communicate, be concerned about your people and be creative. Many people have not been encouraged to be creative — do

Maintenance crew charged with building a barrier wall after anonymous architect advises it

By Goldie Rapp grapp@bcrnews.com

MANLIUS — The maintenance crew at Bureau Valley was tasked with building a wooden barrier wall in the ground level of the east tower at Bureau Valley South on Friday, Sept.

2, to ensure the structure remains stable.

According to Bureau Valley Superintendent Steve Endress, the building and grounds committee met earlier in the week with an architect and did a walk through of the structure to assess the stability of the tower.

Endress confirmed the architect was invited by one of the members of the building and grounds committee and provided a free-of-charge assessment.

Endress would not release the name of the architect or the company the architect was from, however, he confirmed it was not the district architect.

Endress said the architect recommended a wall be built to help stabilize the shifting building, which has moved another quarter of an inch since it was last

assessed before the board’s emergency meeting in early August.

Regarding safety in the east tower, Endress said had no concerns with allowing maintenance staff in the structure to build the stabilizing wall, however, he has concerns with teachers and staff being in the tower.

Endress said the tower has been shut off to everyone other than the maintenance staff. The doors to the tower have been locked from the inside and outside the structure to prevent anyone going into that part of the school.

With the next board meeting three weeks away, Endress said the next step will be to have the district architect assess the building again and see if he recommends any further plans for the board.

The board is scheduled to meet at 7 p.m. Tuesday, Sept.

27, in the administration building. There the board is expected to hold additional discussions on how to move forward with addressing the building issues at Bureau Valley South.

From the editor’s desk I hope you had a great Labor Day weekend. The weather was just about perfect, so I hope you had the opportunity to kick back, relax and make some memories with family and friends.

For those of you who had to work on Labor Day ... well, I feel your pain, but I know your efforts were appreciated by the companies for which you work. Hopefully, you’ll be able to take off a few hours during your work week to take a breather.

••• It’s difficult to believe the annual Homestead Festival is this upcoming weekend.

Wow! It seems like it wasn’t that long ago we were putting together our coverage for last year’s event. From the looks of things, there’s plenty of Homestead activities for Terri Simon folks of all ages, so I hope you’ll take some time to plan out your itinerary and visit as many events as possible.

Check out our Page 1 story today on the making of the ever-popular Homestead Festival Parade, as well as our story on this year’s Homestead Festival Grand Marshal Gary Swanson — truly a well-deserved honor for a man who has brought many smiles to the area.

Don’t forget to pick-up a couple ... or maybe a dozen ... of those beloved pork chop sandwiches during Homestead. Those popular sandwiches are a favorite among many.

For those of you who are having a class reunion, I hope you will enjoy seeing some familiar faces from the past, while you reconnect with old friends and maybe even some old flames. No doubt everyone will look a bit different — but after a few moments, experience tells me you’ll reconnect quickly with those pals from your past.

Take a ton of photos. Have fun. Make some more memories. And don’t forget to take a class photo and submit it to the BCR at news@bcrnews.com. We’ll be happy to publish your reunion pictures.

Watch for our special Homestead Festival section in Thursday’s BCR. ••• By the end of the day today, Tuesday, we will have notified all of our Women of Distinction award winners for 2016 — six lovely and well-deserving ladies. Watch for a story soon where we announce our winners, as well as our keynote speaker.

I’d like to take this opportunity to thank everyone who turned in a nomination form this year. The Illinois Valley is truly filled with a host of very inspirational women who have made and continue to make a difference in the lives of others. I appreciate everyone who took the time to nominate someone, and if your particular person did not win ... please resubmit your nomination next year.

Oct. 25 at Hornbaker Gardens in Princeton. If you’ve attended before, you know we have a fabulous time. If you’ve never been, I hope you come and join in the fun.

Besides a fantastic lunch (did I mention homemade cheesecake), plenty of free goodies, a host of door prizes and more, you’ll also be treated to a few words from our award winners that will no doubt be inspirational and motivating. It’s a fun time. Tickets will go on sale soon.

I’ll keep you posted. Tickets are limited, so if you plan on going, I’d suggest you order your tickets early.

‘The Law and Jake Wade’ Column and artwork

by Bartlett Lee Kassabaum Special to the BCR

“The Law and Jake Wade,” starring Robert Taylor and Richard Widmark, will be showing at the Apollo Theater at 9 p.m. Friday, Sept. 9; the doors will open at 8 p.m.

There will be just the one showing on the one night, as part of the 45th annual Homestead Festival.

Admission to the movie is free if you are wearing or carrying a Rediscover Richard Widmark T-shirt, or $5 if you don’t have one. You can wear one you already own or buy one at the Widmark tent on the lawn in front of the Frontier Building, just north of the Apollo, starting at 5 p.m. the day of the movie, right up to show time. Just show your T-shirt at the door.

The movie is a Western in wide screen and color, released in 1958. It was the 29th movie Widmark made and the sixth Western. He would make 19 Westerns in his career, putting him in the Top 10 Western actors of all time. He was just in the beginnings of the peak of his 72 movies he made for the silver screen and was able to play a broad range of characters, from the slimiest villain to the most heroically-flawed anti-hero.

He never failed to deliver as an actor, and his role as outlaw Clint Hollister is no exception.

He nails it, and you are compelled to watch him, even hoping that somehow he is not destined for a bullet with his name on it, though you know he is.

He is just that interesting of a villain, and he dominates the screen.

Richard Widmark was born in Sunrise Township, Minn., on Dec. 26, 1914, to Carl and Mae Ethel (Barr) Widmark. He and his family moved to Sioux Falls, S.D., where he went to first, second and third grades. He had a brother, Donald Widmark, born on July 25, 1918. Richard went to the fourth grade in Henry, Ill., and went to fifth grade for a short time in Chillicothe, Mo. He moved to Princeton with his family in 1925, and he attended sixth grade at Lincoln Elementary, then seventh and eighth at Logan Junior High, and four years at Princeton High School during his time here. He made many friends who he kept in contact with during his life as a Hollywood movie star.

His family ran a bak-

ery in Princeton, and he worked as a doorman at the Apollo Theater. He graduated as senior class president from Princeton High School in 1932 and then went to Lake Forest College where he also was the senior class president when he graduated in 1936. He taught speech and dramatics at Lake Forest for two years, moved to New York City, started in radio and theater, and then made his first movie in 1947.

I remember seeing Richard Widmark for the first time in “The Law and Jake Wade” when I was 11 at the Gran Theater in Granville, where I lived and grew up. Widmark’s performance as outlaw Clint Hollister was superb. He could play a guy you both liked and hated. I always looked for movies of his after that.

You could go to the Gran, bring your own brown grocery bag of popcorn, and sit through every showing of the movie. If it was a real good one, I could do two and a half performances before I had my fill. I’m pretty sure “The Law and Jake Wade” was a two.

This was Widmark’s second movie for director John Sturges, where he co-stars with Robert Taylor, a screen legend from a prior generation. Robert Taylor was starring in movies that probably played at the Apollo Theater when Widmark was a doorman there. Only in his wildest dreams could he have even thought that he would one day be sharing the marquee with Taylor.

Widmark’s Clint Hollister possesses just a shade of his crazed Tommy Udo character from “Kiss of Death” (1947), but now he is all business and reasonable on the surface.

He is having fun with you, the audience, and his character’s sarcastic lines make it impossible not to watch him on the screen. This was part of the success that he had as an actor, audience penetration or giving the audience a reason to watch him, whether in sympathy or hatred.

The Lake Forest College newspaper, where he went to college, said of his performance in “Skidding,” the final play of his junior year: “Widmark stole the sympathy of the audience from the minute he walked on the stage until he left in the third act amid a burst of applause.” Journalist Hedda Hopper, an entertainment columnist in his day, said of his acting: “It was a combination of competence and audi-

ence penetration which turned the trick for Widmark.”

Richard Widmark could turn heads. He could have that effect even when he was in high school. A few years after his movie debut in “Kiss of Death,” an article in the Kewanee Star Courier, he once delivered in Princeton while in grade school, stated, in high school “... he won the distinction twice, of being the class sheik.” (a man held to be masterful and irresistibly charming to women), a Rudolph Valentino.

In the movie, Robert Taylor is Jake Wade who once rode with Hollister as partners in crime, but is now a lawman. He parted company with Widmark’s character, who believes that Taylor betrayed him over stolen loot he thinks Wade took and ran out with.

Wade only wanted out of the outlaw life because of a tragic event, so he buried the money in a ghost town in Comanche territory and started a new life. Hollister abducts Wade and his fiancee (Patricia Owens) and forces them to take him and his gang to the ghost

town, where the stolen loot is buried. This leads to a final showdown in the ghost town with Indians, and of course, the classic gun fight. Sturges delivers a well-paced movie and in it, Richard Widmark is a great reason to watch all the action.

Hollister’s outlaw gang includes, Robert Middleton as Ortero, Henry Silva as Rennie and DeForest Kelley as Wexler. All three were great character actors and are easily recognizable as some of the best bad guys to ever grace the movie screen. DeForest Kelley, of course, was Dr. McCoy, “Bones,” on the original “Star Trek” series and movies.

You won’t want to miss this chance to see a Western classic on the big screen, starring Princeton’s own Richard Widmark and support our Rediscover Richard Widmark project. You’ll want to come early, get a T-shirt or bring one you already have, get your popcorn and a cold drink, and settle in for a sure-fire winner that will entertain you for all of its 88 minutes of western action.

Pitch counts may be coming to IHSA

By Kevin Hieronymus khieronymus@bcrnews.com

The IHSA Baseball Advisory Committee has made its pitch for pitch counts on statewide diamonds next spring.

The intent of the recommendations is to protect pitchers from overuse during both a single day and consecutive days with a weekly cap on the number of pitches thrown. In short, a pitcher who throws 30 or less pitches may pitch on consecutive days, but will require rest in varying degrees for 31 or more pitches.

Hall coach Tom Keegan said the intent of the recommendation is good, but at the same time believes a majority of coaches have the well-being of a kid’s health in mind when deciding how to use them.

“Most coaches know the difference between a free and easy 90-pitch effort and a 90-pitch effort that is labor intensive,” Keegan said. “Studies have come up with the magic number, but I feel that there is some variation from pitcher to pitcher in terms of recovery and conditioning/arm care. Common sense should be the biggest factor in deciding pitcher usage

and open lines of communication between the kid and coach.”

Putnam County coach Chris Newsome, a former pitcher himself, also subscribes to the common sense theory when it comes to keeping pitchers healthy.

“Unfortunately, way too many kids get taken advantage of by overzealous coaches and dads of summer teams that treat winning a game or summer tourney as a lifetime achievement award and not a baseball game. I like the count in the sense that it will protect the student-athlete from over-

Had team scores been kept, A/L coach Bob Hal-

berg said the Clippers would have scored a runner-up finish behind Class 2A Kaneland (43).

He called it a fantastic performance.

Jenna Parente led Hall through the chutes with a 27th-place time of 22:56.3. Also running for Hall were Lainey Robbins (53rd, 24:02.6), Matti Heiden (66th, 25:10.6), Kaylee Olivares (84th, 26:11.5), Amelia Moreno (97th, 27:12.8) and Auyse Ruda (109th, 28:23.9).

Bureau Valley’s Haley Weidner finishes Saturday’s Oregon Open with a fifth-place finish.

Proposed pitch count guidelines: Should the recommendation be approved by the IHSA Board of Directors, the following guidelines will be in place for the 2017 season: • A pitcher who throws 1-30 pitches may pitch on two consecutive days.

On the pitcher’s third consecutive day, the pitcher is eligible to a cap of 45 pitches. The pitcher must then rest for two days.

• A pitcher who throws 31-45 pitches must rest for one day. After a day of rest, the pitcher may pitch to a cap of 90 pitches.

• A pitcher who throws 46-60 pitches must rest for two days. After two days of rest, the pitcher may pitch to a cap of 60 pitches.

• In the account the pitcher pitches a fourth time in a seven-day period in the previous scenarios, the pitch count is capped at 45.

• A pitcher who throws 61-75 pitches must rest for three days. After three days of rest, the pitcher may pitch to a cap of 75 pitches. If a pitcher pitches a third time in a seven-day period, the pitch count is capped at 45.

• A pitcher who throws 76-115 pitches must rest for four days. After four days of rest, the pitcher may pitch to a cap of 90 pitches. If a pitcher pitches a second time in a seven-day period, the pitch count is capped at 90.

Baseball From Page 9 use,” Newsome said.

The Panthers coach said he doesn’t ask their scorekeepers/managers what the pitch count is until he sees his pitcher laboring and even then it is “more of a landmark for me and my staff in terms of being prepared in future games as that pitcher draws near to that same amount of pitches,” he said. “It is 95 percent a feel thing personally. I know when my guys are tired and that’s when they are taken out. It isn’t a chart with numbers. It’s watching them in fall ball, winter workouts, open gyms, bullpens and in prior outings.”

He said there are signs a pitcher will show when it’s time to take them out.

“You have to know their individual tendencies on the mound and in the dugout,” Newsome said. “It’s more than their delivery. Are they taking more time in between pitches? Do they typically stretch their arm/shoulder/wrist/etc. after a pitch?

What’s their attitude like? Body language?

Demeanor and mound presence?”

He said there also has to be an open line of communication between him and his pitchers.

“I have always stressed that pitchers need to be honest with me and themselves regarding arm health and how they feel overall,” Newsome said. “My guys don’t ask what their pitch count is either.

They understand that there isn’t a magical cutoff line, that after they reach a certain number their arm will cease to function or they won’t throw a strike. I would be willing to bet that 95 percent of the time my pitchers would be in line with these proposed limits and days of rest.”

St. Bede coach Bill Booker said the IHSA is being proactive on pitch counts, noting offseason and training issues, are as much, if not a bigger, area of concern.

“Players should not throw 12 months out of the year, let alone go to off-season showcases and try to ramp up their velo for colleges or scouts,” Booker said. “I

believe the IHSA is trying to do the right thing ... it may be hard to enforce ... we’ll see. I will definitely adhere to this once it’s put into place.

“I’m not sure overbearing, elite summer travel teams or college/pro off-season showcases will follow our lead. This is a move trying to educate all. Once again, my advice is to play multiple sports to avoid overuse injuries.”

The proposed pitch count caps are soft, allowing the pitcher to finish pitching to a batter if the pitch count is reached in the middle of an at-bat. Then the pitcher would have to be pulled or adhere to the next level of pitch count and regulations.

Postseason pitch count guidelines would be identical to the regular season guidelines, with one exception. In the postseason, there is no maximum number of pitches in a pitcher’s next appearance.

The recommendation, which passed with unanimous support from the committee, will now follow normal IHSA protocol. A committee of Athletic Administrators will discuss and vote on the recommendation at their meeting on Sept. 14.

The IHSA staff will also discuss and vote on the recommendation. The recommendation will then be reviewed and voted on by the IHSA Board of Directors Oct. 12.

If passed by the board with a simple majority, the recommendation would become a rule and be applicable for the 2017 IHSA baseball season this spring.

The Athletic Administrators and IHSA staff votes do not have a direct impact on the recommendation, as they simply provide the board with feedback from two other bodies.

IHSA Sports Medicine Advisory Committee member Dr. Preston Wolin said the recommendations will make the game safer and more enjoyable.

“The cooperation of the baseball coaches in coming up with these limits was outstanding. Everyone in that room was committed to the safety of our young pitchers. That dedication is being translated into our pitch count limits in the state of Illinois,” he said.

Hall’s Wozniak (293 yards passing, 3 TDs, 1 TD rushing) was certainly right behind.

Princeton quarterback Garrett Allen ran for a 10-yard touchdown and threw for another (16 yards).

• Good to the end: The sophomore prelim at Morrison was a heart-stopper right down to the end. Princeton scored late to take a 28-27 lead, then had to hang on as Morrison threw the ball down field, but couldn’t crack the end zone.

• Condolences: Friday Night Rewind extends its condolences to Princeton broadcaster Paul Bomleny, whose mother, Dorothy, passed away Friday. WZOE called an audible in the Voice of the

Tigers’ absence with Norm Vandermoon sliding over from the play call at Bureau Valley to join color man Curtis Odell. Color man Dave Shepard took over the Storm’s broadcast with Tim Catton on the FM dial.
