Former sheriff Michael Harn charged with theft By Rachel Rodgers rrodgers@saukvalley.com A former Ogle County sheriff has been accused of using county money to buy items for his own use while he was in office. Michael Harn, 54, was charged Oct. 12 with two counts of felony theft. According to court documents filed Oct. 12, prosecutors say he bought numerous items with
county funds, including electronic equipment, boat equipment, radiocontrolled toys, party tents, coolers, weapons, hunting guns, HarleyDavidson clothing and accessories, adult novelty items, and outdoor fountains. The list goes on to include auto maintenance for his personal vehicles, Apple iTunes products, and radio advertising. The total cost of the items falls between $500 and $10,000.
Current Sheriff Brian Va n V i c k l e said last week that the amount is in the thousands of dollars. Special P r o s e c u t o r Michael Harn Dave Neal, of the Illinois Office of State’s Attorneys Appellate Prosecutor’s
Office, said the charges resulted from a two-year Illinois State Police investigation that began shortly after an internal audit of the office in December 2014 and January 2015. The thefts are said to have occurred between June 1, 2011, and Dec. 2, 2014. The felonies each carry a sentence of 3 to 7 years in prison. Harn is set to appear in Ogle County Court on Nov. 10.

Residents want more information

By Vinde Wells vwells@oglecountynews.com Forreston Fire Protection District residents want more facts and figures before they go to the polls next month to vote on two referenda. The fire district board called the Oct. 12 meeting to explain why they are asking residents to approve two referenda — one for the fire department and one for the ambulance service — on the Nov. 8 ballot. Both referenda are seeking to hike taxes by 10 cents, from a maximum of 30 cents to 40 cents, per $100 of equalized assessed valuation (EAV). That means the annual real estate taxes on a $100,000 house would increase by approximately $33 for each levy or a total of $66 if both are approved. Fire board president Jack Daws told the audience of approximately 30 people that Forreston currently has the lowest tax rate of any fire district in the area, but an increase is needed to pay wages for the ambulance crew and buy equipment for both the fire and ambulance services. “We have the lowest tax rate of all the surrounding fire districts,” he said. “It’s nothing to be proud of but it helps the taxpayer.” However, he said current expenses and increasing costs make the tax increases desirable. “The ambulance was in the red by $40,000,” Daws said. “We can’t continue to operate that way. We’re going to be buying some equipment. It takes a long time to gather up $600,000 for a fire truck.” Marian DeWall asked to see the district’s budget. “We haven’t seen a budget,” she said. “Why hasn’t it been published in the paper like every
Harn served as Ogle County sheriff from 2010 to 2014 before being defeated by VanVickle in the 2014 Republican Primary. His salary was $87,000. Prior to being elected sheriff, Harn was an Ogle County deputy for several years. While in office, Harn stewarded a fund containing administrative tow fees and other money that was not included in the county’s budget. Turn to A3

Apartment fire in Oregon sends one to a hospital By Vinde Wells vwells@oglecounty news.com The cause is undetermined of an early morning fire that damaged several apartments in Oregon Oct. 12, sent one resident to the hospital, and left 25 to 30 people homeless. Oregon Fire Capt. Randy Travis said Robert Blanchard, 51, the resident of Apt. 312 at Countryside Apartments at 700 E. Washington St., was rescued from the burning building by firefighters and transported to the hospital. He suffered non life threatening injuries, Oregon Fire Chief Mike Knoup said. The fire started in the upstairs of Blanchard’s apartment on the west end of the building. Knoup said investigators, including State Fire Marshal Greg Castronova, could not pin-point the exact cause of the fire. “It’s going to remain undetermined,” Knoup said. “We know it started in the bathroom at the end of the bathtub. He had some type of heating device but we’re not sure what it was. It’s not suspicious at all.” The fire was reported at 3 a.m. by a resident. Travis said firefighters initially encountered a great deal of smoke. “Within 15 minutes of our arrival the flames came through the roof,” he said. Fire Department Chaplain Michael Hoffman said several apartments on the west end of the building had “major damage.” Firefighters from the Mt. Morris, Polo, Byron, Stillman Valley, Franklin Grove, Lynn-Scott-Rock and Monroe Center Fire Departments assisted at the scene. Knoup said the fire is the fourth in the apartment
building in the last 10 years. “All of them have been accidental, caused by carelessness,” he said. Hoffman said the Red Cross came to the scene early on to assist the residents who had to flee their homes. Although the apartments on the east end of the building sustained only minor smoke damage, those residents were evacuated, too, and waited outside on the cool, gray morning. East end resident Melissa Burns, who has lived at Countryside for two years, said she was awakened at 3 a.m. by pounding on her door. “They started banging on the door and yelling ‘fire, fire,’” she said. The fire moved quickly through the west end of the building, Burns said, and stopped just short of her apartment. Resident Andrew Beam said Red Cross personnel began handing out blankets as soon as they arrived. “They took care of us,” he said. Burns said they had been told that they could not return to their apartments until the electricity was turned back on. Building owner Lorraine Erhart, 86, rural Oregon, said she found out about the fire about 5 a.m. “My phone was ringing when I got up for the day,” she said. “I didn’t need this.” She said she was relieved that all the residents got out of the building, which she has owned since 1993. Fifteen of the 18 units were occupied, Erhart said. She said the roof on the east side of the building had been damaged by hail. “I had planned to get it fixed and then sell the building,” she said.
Members of the audience listen intently to the answers to questions they raised about the upcoming referenda for the Forreston Fire Protection District. Approximately 40 people attended the meeting Oct. 12 at the fire station. Photo by Vinde Wells
Residents ask for additional numbers From A1 DeVries said he wants to know how much taxing to the maximum would bring in. “I’m not against this but I’d like to see some figures,” he said. Michelle Drayton agreed. “It’s hard to vote for a referendum when you don’t have the information,” she said. “When you don’t have the justification for it.” This is the first time tax
“It’s hard to vote for a referendum when you don’t have the information,” — Michelle Drayton increase the fire service has asked for in its 68-year history. When the district was formed on Nov. 7, 1947, the tax rate was set at 30 cents per $100 EAV.
The fire district took over the ambulance service in March of 1976 and the present tax rate of 30 cents per $100 EAV was set then. Currently the fire service taxes at 25.3 cents per $100
EAV and the ambulance at 24.7 cents. Voters in the Polo Fire Protection District approved identical referenda last March to increase the tax caps from 30 to 40 cents per $100 EAV for both the fire service and the ambulance service. Oregon Fire Protection District voters approved a referendum to establish an ambulance service in April of 2015.
Former sheriff charged with theft From A1 Sauk Valley Media began reporting Harn’s questionable spending from the fund in December 2013, including purchases of $7,500 in restaurant meals and more than $3,400 in clothing – such as Lucky Brand jeans, Under Armour polo shirts, HarleyDavidson clothing and gear, Men’s Wearhouse suits, shirts, ties, pants and shoes – for Harn and a detective. The tow fund was established in 2011 by a county ordinance that gave the sheriff’s department the ability to charge a $350 fee when it had vehicles towed, an effort to supplement the department’s budget. In the fund’s first two years
of existence, about $210,000 was deposited, with one third – $70,000 – coming from sources other than administrative tow fees. A report released in October of 2014 by Sikich, a Naperville-based accounting and consulting company hired by the Ogle County Board to do a forensic audit of the tow fund, showed nearly $11,000 was missing. The firm also found about $61,000 in revenue that should have gone into the county’s general fund but was instead placed into the tow fund. “This investigation involved hundreds of hours of good police work going through hundreds of transactions authorized by
then-sheriff Michael Harn,” Neal said. After his defeat in the March 2014 primary election, Harn was hired as the Forrestville Valley School District’s maintenance coordinator, juggling two fulltime positions for six months from June to November in 2014. He resigned from the school district post a few months later. Harn also served as Forreston Village Board President, a post he was elected to in 2005, 2009, and 2013. After moving to the Peoria area, he resigned as village president on June 22 before completing his third term, which would have expired in
April. Trustee Mark Metzger was appointed to fill out the rest of his term. VanVickle said that since he was elected, the sheriff’s office has altered its accounting practices and become more transparent with record-keeping and financial management. “Additionally, during the transition in 2014, the Ogle County Sheriff’s Office administrative command was restructured,” VanVickle said in a news release Oct. 12. “These changes both in processes and structure have given the office more accountability and has returned the professionalism that the citizens of Ogle County deserve.”

Chana School Foundation salutes Lillian and Ed McCanse By Connie Stauffer Chana School Volunteer Ed and Lillian McCanse are gone now, but their lives stand as an example of truly community minded individuals. Both Lillian and Ed contributed to the preservation and restoration of the Chana School in their own unique way. Ed and Lillian spearheaded business support for the school project. They campaigned for local donations to move the schoolhouse. They encouraged local artists to paint the Chana School. With the encouragement of Lillian and Ed, in 2003 Harry Nurmet painted his living memorial of the Chana School at the age of 93. Ed McCanse shared his engineering expertise to help plan support structure under the schoolhouse. He provided the I-beams to hold the school on its foundation. As a Rotary member he
helped gain respect needed for the restoration project. He was always ready for new challenges in the project and was forever brainstorming. Lillian McCanse, a former elementary teacher, was drawn to the Chana School Project because of her love for education and history. Lillian’s mission was to gain financial support to move the schoolhouse. She began first with the Office of Preservation of Historical Structures in Chicago. This office recognized the importance of the design of the 1883 Chana School and sent emergency funds requested by Lillian for saving the schoolhouse. Next, she paired up with Robert and Sonia Vogl to write a matching grant with the Illinois State Museum. This grant was extremely important to the future of the project. Grant funds were used to begin the restoration.
After the grant was completed, the state inspector wrote a letter commending the work done on the schoolhouse and provided an avenue to get onto the National Register of Historical Places. Ed and Lillian enjoyed the adventure of dealing with the physical challenges of moving the old schoolhouse, financing the project through donations and volunteer efforts, and gaining community support for a foreign structure making its way into the Oregon Community. Ed and Lillian had a contagious attitude of “anything is possible”, if we all work together for a common cause. It is people such as these that helped to make our country great. In honor of Lillian, the family hosted a memorial service at the 1883 Chana School last fall. Since that time the family has shown their support for the Chana School Museum by making

landmark for ages to come. Donations are still needed to replace the deteriorating roof on the 1883 Chana School.
Hard work pays off for student By Vinde Wells vwells@oglecounty news.com Hard work, perseverance, and support from caring friends paid off this August for a young Honduran woman who earned her degree to become a doctor to her countrymen. Bill Hare, Mt. Morris, who locally heads up the Honduran Mission Project, attended the medical school graduation of Clereth Pineda in Tegucigalpa, the capital of Honduras, on Aug. 10. Hare and others taking part in the Honduran Mission Project met Pineda eight years ago on one of their trips to build homes in rural areas of the country for families who cannot afford building materials. “We were in a very, very rural, poor area in the south,” Hare said. “Clereth was our cook.” Hare soon found out that her desire was to become a
doctor. “She came from a very poor, humble family so she was working a semester and then going to school a semester,” he said. “We asked her where she wanted to practice, and she said she wanted to serve her own people.” With alternately working and going to school, Hare said Pineda’s dream would have taken a very long time to achieve. “After we came home we made the decision to gather support to help her more rapidly achieve her goal,” he said. About two dozen people, some from the Honduran Mission Project as well as others, contributed money to pay for Pineda’s medical school costs to allow her to attend school full-time. “Thanks to them, Clereth is now a doctor of medicine and surgery and will very soon begin working as the primary health care provide

for 18,000 people in the rural area of southern Honduras,” Hare said. Achieving the dream was not without challenges other than financial. “She was kicked, robbed, and beaten several times,” Hare said. “As soon as she was a ‘white coat,’ she was a target because doctors are perceived to have more money than others.” The academic competition was also stiff. “She came from a poor area and successfully competed with students who came from wealthy and privileged backgrounds,” he said. Hare and his group go to Honduras each January to build homes. For more information about volunteering for or contributing to the Honduran Mission Project call Hare at 815-734-4268.

prepare for the class. Reflexology Comes to RRC Carolyn Bieck, certified reflexologist, will share the science and benefits of reflexology on Monday, Nov. 7 from 10 to 11:30 a.m. What is reflexology? • A reminder to wake up and act right • A science and an art based on a system of zone and reflex areas that represent an image of the body in miniature on the feet, hands and ears. • The areas on the feet, hands and ears correspond to the specific organs, glands and body parts. What does a reflexologist do? A reflexologist applies specific pressure using a thumb and finger walking technique, along with a relaxing procedure before, during and after each session. The thumb and finger walking technique stimulates the nerve pathway to create a chemical flow that communicates with the nervous system. This technique releases essential chemicals for improving the functions of the bodies system, for relaxing, for better health, and for all-around well being. Someone from the audience will be asked to volunteer for a minidemonstration. To be a part of this very informative and enlightening session, call Rock River Center at 815-732-3252.

Bricklayers union protests bank building site By Zach Arbogast zarbogast@oglecounty news.com Local union bricklayers are unhappy with Harvard State Bank, but the bank’s CEO claims he did everything he could. Members of the Bricklayers & Allied Craftworkers Local 6 IL were bannering outside of the bank construction site last week, unhappy with the decision HSB made to use The Redmond Company — a non-union design and construction company based
in Madison, Wisconsin. “Shame on Harvard State Bank” reads a flyer from the bricklayers. “They claim to ‘serve the community’ as their mission, but fail to do so when given the opportunity to build with local folks.” According to HSB CEO Phillip Lehmann, the situation isn’t as simple as calling up the company from the get-go. He said they put the work out there, but nobody jumped on it. “We bid out to 10 companies, five union, five non-union,” said
Lehmann. “The company from Wisconsin is the only company we heard back from.” Local 6 President Richard Boyd disagrees with the assessment. “They say they did that, but so far my contractors say they hadn’t been contacted,” he said. “There’s a lot of conflicting information, and we need to do more research on it before we have a definite conclusion.” The Redmond Company could not be reached for This sign was posted at the Harvard State Bank’s construction site in Oregon at Sixth and Washington Streets last week be a group of protesters.

Second annual Coats for Hope drive is underway A Byron seventh grader is once again hard at work collecting coats and donations for area domestic violence shelters. Victoria Kuzlik, 12, officially kicked off the second annual Coats for Hope drive Oct. 10.
Last year, the drive raised more than $5,000 and more than 900 coats, some of which were brand new. HOPE of Ogle County was Victoria’s intended recipient last year, but the bounty was so great it was shared with the YWCA
The Byron seventh grade volleyball team, members of Byron High School Key Club, recipient agency representatives, and Kohl’s Department stores “Kohl’s Cares” volunteers from both the DeKalb and Rockford stores, all helped Victoria Kuzlik and her father Robert wrap collection boxes recently for the second annual Coats for Hope drive.

in Sterling, Remedies in Rockford, and the homeless shelter in Rochelle. She had decided on HOPE as the recipient because she and her father used their services a few years back. Victoria came up with the idea last December when her father, Robert, bought her a new winter coat, and she wondered what to do with the one she had outgrown. She started collecting coats and winter gear at Byron Middle School, where she is a student, and the plan grew from there. Eventually she placed collection boxes at 38 businesses in the local area, and by Jan. 16 they were filled to overflowing. This year’s drive will benefit HOPE of Ogle County, as well as the

Christmas tree will decorate the courthouse lawn The Christmas tree that will decorate on the Ogle County Courthouse lawn this holiday season will be donated by the Prairie Preservation Society of Ogle County (PPSOC). It was grown a special plot at PPSOC’s Sand Ridge
Prairie on South Daysville Road, near Oregon. On an autumn day, Debbie Dickson, Executive Director of the Oregon Chamber of Commerce and Bob and Sonia Vogl, PPSOC Board members, spent the morning
examining 20-foot trees, to find the one perfect tree which they found and marked. Oregon Park District employees will cut the tree inn November and bring it to town to set it up where it will be a centerpiece of
holiday décor, being unveiled for the Candlelight Walk on Saturday, Nov. 25. PPSOC purchased Sand Ridge from the former Sinnissippi Forest, where it was the cut-it-yourself operation, in 2010. They have
been selling the remaining trees since then. The most delightful part of the year for volunteers is the season when families enjoy the peace and quiet of the site, sharing time and happy memories searching for their
tree. “Funds from tree sales are used to renovate this beautiful jewel of northern Illinois, Sand Ridge Prairie,” Sonia Vogle said. PSOC is a non-profit corporation.
deal with: the things they see, hear, smell, touch, and do - in order to serve. They all very much deserve, and they do very much appreciate, your support. They very rarely seek or want recognition. They do not consider themselves heroes. They just want to do their job and serve when the need arises - 3 a.m. or 3 p.m., it doesn’t matter to them.
Saying “thanks” to them means a lot. So again, on behalf of Oregon Fire, thank-you to everyone that helped out with the fire and the victims. This is a great place to live. You all help make that true. Keep it up and God bless the Oregon community. Pastor Michael Hoffman Chaplain Oregon Fire Protection District
Public Voice Thanks for your help during Oct. 12 fire
Dear Editor, On Wednesday, Oct. 12 we experienced a major fire in the apartment building at 700 E. Washington at 3 a.m. There are 20 apartments in the building so probably 30 people were displaced. Thankfully, there were no injuries as a result of the fire. One man was rescued from the building and was transported to KSB. As Chaplain for Oregon Fire, it is my job to take care of any victims and see to their needs. I also take care of the needs of the firefighters. On behalf of Oregon Fire, I want to say a huge thankyou to both Casey’s and to McDonalds. I called and they responded without hesitation. Casey’s brought donuts and coffee. McDonalds brought hash browns and a variety of breakfast sandwiches. Another Oregon business owner, I don’t know who it was, brought several cases of bottled water. We had about 40-45 firefighters on scene from seven different departments.
It was great to get them food and water. I was unable to function as chaplain on this scene because I was running the fire engine and I could not abandon that responsibility (but I could use my phone). I am not a firefighter but I serve as an extra set of hands on the team, to do what needs to be done in many different ways. I had Incident Command call for another chaplain from Byron to help take care of people. He came and did a great job too. The Red Cross was contacted and responded to the scene. They were absolutely terrific in their compassionate and professional response to meet the needs of the families impacted by the fire. Big thanks to them also. Donations to them are
always appropriate. After the fire, I received calls from a variety of churches and other groups offering assistance. My heart is always touched by the out-pouring of help and support in such events. This is a wonderful community and it is a pleasure to live and work here. Facebook was a forum for all kinds of misinformation and to be blunt, gossip. I would encourage everyone to be far more careful about sharing things when the facts from the scene are not known, and driving by does not count as being there. It is not helpful. It is frustrating to read the blatant inaccuracies and suppositions (often posted before we even get back to the station). The media listens to

Most of the surrounding fire departments have chaplains, and we frequently respond to emergency scenes in support of both the firefighters and victims.

Marcos showcased their offensive talents By Rob Laird If the goal of Senior Night is to earn some recognition for upperclassmen, well, Polo’s version Friday night was quite a success. The Marcos had far and away their best offensive performance of the season in a 49-8 victory over AshtonFranklin Center, almost certainly wrapping up a playoff berth with the win – but that wasn’t even the most fun part for Polo’s seniors. The victory was wrapped up early – the Marcos (5-3, 4-3) led 42-0 at halftime – allowing coach Jeff Bumsted and his staff the chance to honor the seniors in a way that has become uniquely Polo. On their first possession of the third quarter, the Marcos lined up in a wishbone formation and, one by one, a different senior was given the handoff. First up was running back Tristen Aguilar – no surprise there. But senior lineman Ben Peterson, sporting No. 70 on his uniform, took the next one. Then lineman Fabian Calderon, followed by linemen Matthew Binkley, J.J. Bardell, and Marcus Almasy. The result was (surprisingly?) successful, with the Marcos marching down to the 13-yard line. Peterson’s number was called again on fourth-and-1, and he rumbled 13 yards for a touchdown. “That’s something [offensive coordinator Hank] Grobe tries to do every year,” Bumsted said. “Obviously, if it’s a one-point game, we wouldn’t do it, but winning or losing, he likes to give his linemen the ball on their last home game. [Peterson] will remember that touchdown for the rest of his life.” Aside from the parade of lineman ball carriers, Friday’s game was a showcase from the first whistle, as the Marcos amassed 175 yards of first-quarter offense,
including two touchdowns by Aguilar, who ended with 118 yards on 12 carries in the game. Mathew Cheeseman scored two touchdowns 91 seconds apart, catching a fade from sophomore quarterback Braiden Soltow for a 3-yard score before returning a fumble 32 yards to give his team a 35-0 lead midway through the second quarter. Soltow completed six of his seven pass attempts on the day for 103 yards. In all, it was the best showing of the year for Polo, in both points scored and margin of victory. Bumsted felt good about his team’s performance in its penultimate regular season contest, but knows his team could use a win next week against an Orangeville squad that, at 4-4, will be playing for its playoff life. “I’m expecting a tough game. That’s a good football team,” Bumsted said. “If we win six, then we’re not No. 16 or 15 [seeded], and we can play against somebody more manageable. We might not even get in if we lose. This is a must-win for us, just like it is a must-win for them.” Polo had complete air superiority – 125 passing yards with seven out of eight completions from Braiden Soltow. AFC’s Cody Penick had only a single unsuccessful pass attempt, ending with 0. Neither quarterback threw an interception. The Marcos also handily won the rushing game with 227 yards to the Raiders’ 141. Tristen Aguilar had more than half of the team’s rushing yards at 114. The Marcos had their mistakes, with seven penalties costing them 52 yards. However, causing and recovering three AFC fumbles helped maintain the dominant lead. The Marcos are away against Orangeville on October 21. Kickoff is as 7 p.m.

Forreston tops EPC to remain undefeated By Dan Woessner Sauk Valley Media Chances came and chances went for the Eastland-Pearl City Wildcatz on Friday night. The Wildcatz pulled within a touchdown in the second half of Forreston, the top ranked team in Class 1A, but the Cardinals delivered the knockout blow with a fourth-quarter touchdown in a 21-7 NUIC Northwest game. The win moves the Cardinals to 8-0 overall and 7-0 in conference. “They make you earn it,” Forreston coach Denny Diduch said. “They came out in the second half and made a push, and thankfully we were able to answer with that score.” Keegan Schubert pulled EPC (7-1, 6-1) within a touchdown with 1:54 left in the third quarter with a 6-yard touchdown run. Schubert had 55 of his 77 yards in the second half. “Coaches came up to me at half time and said that I was a better back than I showed in the first half,”
Schubert said. “So I just started running harder. “We didn’t come out tonight playing physical. We did that in the second half, and when we scored, I thought the momentum had really changed.” The teams traded possessions after the touchdown before Forreston mounted a 12-play drive that chewed up 57 yards and 4 minutes of clock. Anthony Christian put the Cardinals up 21-7 with a 5-yard run with 6:23 left. EPC started the second half with a drive that stalled out at the Forreston 16-yard line. It was the second time that the Forreston defense held backed up close to their end zone. “You never want to be in that position, but it doesn’t change the angles and the depth of the field,” Diduch said. “The defense made the plays down there when we need them.” Forreston, which had six different runners carry the ball on the first seven plays on offense, scored on
a 9-yard run by Gavin Fuchs on its first drive of the game. The Cardinals scored on a 30-yard draw by quarterback Hunter Daws with time expired in the first quarter for their second score. “That’s a case of a kid making an tremendous individual run,” Diduch said. “EPC had the same in the second half from the Schubert kid. It’s those plays that can really turn a game.” Forreston churned out 239 yards on the ground. EPC was held to 186 total yards. Forreston 21, EPC 7 Star of the game: Hunter Daws, Forreston, 3-for-4, 80 passing yards, 37 rushing yards, including 30 yard touchdown to end first quarter. He said it: “Our freshman team did its best to run scout for us, but there really isn’t any way to replicate the way they can run their offense with so many different players at that speed until you get to the game.” EPC’s Keegan Schubert said.

Ogle County Board gets look at plans for a new jail By Vinde Wells vwells@oglecountynews.com The Ogle County Board got a look at what a new county jail in the heart of Oregon might look like. Jeff Goodale, Director of Justice at HOK, a Chicago architectural and planning firm, gave board members a drawing of a proposed detention center located South Sixth Street west of the judicial center on property owned by the county. HOK was hired a year ago to do a jail needs assessment. Goodale said the proposed building, which would house
from180 to 200 prisoners, would fall within the $28 million estimated previously. The site is large enough, he said, to allow for future expansion. The board has not yet voted on whether or not to build the new jail or on a site for it. Goodale’s drawing showed South Sixth Street closed to traffic with a sally port across what is now the street connecting the new detention center to the judicial center. The sally port, he said, will be large enough to accommodate at least six vehicles to easily transport prisoners to court. The drawing showed the front
of the jail facing north, lining up with the north side of the judicial center. “The brick used will blend with the judicial center, but the judicial center will remain the more prominent building,” Goodale said. Board member Lee Meyers, Byron, told Goodale he liked the concept, but would like to see a similar drawing of a detention center next to the public safety complex on First Street. “Most of the comments I’ve heard [on the proposed jail] have been about Sixth Street,” he said. “Several people don’t want that blocked off.”

Sports Column One uncertainty still remains for the Cardinals By Andy Colbert acolbert@oglecounty news.com With the IHSA releasing its Week 8 playoff outlook, class 1A has one major uncertainty. And that is whether Fulton remains in 2A or sneaks down into 1A. Right now, they are listed at the smallest school in 2A at 309 students, along with Annawan-Wethersfield. If Fulton drops to 1A, they would be Forreston’s biggest challenge to a trip downstate. The word on the street is that it will take 36 points for 5-4 teams to qualify. Last year, it was 35. If that’s the case, and that’s a big if, the field for 1A looks
fairly well established with 32 teams at 5-3 and most will have 36 or more points, with perhaps Kincaid and Chicago Uplift the exceptions, provided they lose. That would open up a couple spots and there are eight 4-4 teams that could make the playoffs with a win this Friday. However, all play teams with winning records, other than Milledgeville who faces 2-6 Warren. Probably the best bet scenario would be for Uplift not to make it and Milledgeville to make it, maybe keeping Fulton out. Another possible 1A addition would be Oakwood Fithian (4-4), who faces 5-3 Catlin Salt Fork. By the way, a coin flip is the procedure the IHSA would use if a single spot opens up in 1A for either Fulton or A-W.
Orangeville is also 4-4, but Polo should handle the Broncos. Even if the Marcos were to be upset by Orangeville, they would have at least 40 playoff points, plenty to get in. As far as the overall No. 1 seed in 1A, Forreston is slightly ahead of Ottawa Marquette by the narrowest of margins. Both have 33 playoff points (wins by opponents), but Forreston currently leads in the tiebreaker - defeated opponent’s wins (33-32). If you’re not a football geek, I apologize for being so analytical. But, the smallest details can have a major impact on the overall pairings. Theoretically, Marquette has a better chance of passing Forreston on playoff points this Friday, based upon expected results, earning four points to three for the Cardinals.

However, Amboy has decent shot at upsetting Freeport Aquin, giving Forreston four points instead of three. Moving on to geographic concerns, there are 13 potential playoff teams in 1A with a definite northern Illinois/Chicago area connection. After that, it’s a huge divide and that might be a concern for the IHSA. Hopefully the IHSA won’t go resort to bracketing an 8-team NUIC quadrant. The easiest way to get a handle on the final outcome of the 2016 is to wait until Saturday night when the official announcements are made by the IHSA. Instead of watching on TV, my choice is listening to FM 92.1 from 5 p.m. to 10 p.m. They have a much more knowledgeable show than what the suits at the IHSA puts on and it is also NUIC-
centered. For me, that is Saturday night entertainment at its best, listening to Don Wetnz and crew breaking down the playoffs, providing unique information and interviewing area coaches. Finally, who are the contenders in 1A? The polls say Forreston and Tuscola are the favorites to meet in Champaign. Tuscola knocked off the previous No. 1 team (Decatur St. Teresa) by a large margin a couple weeks ago and Forreston has proven to be top dog in the north with wins over Le-Win and EPC. What about Stockton, Ottawa-Marquette and LeWin? Stockton and O-M are unknown quantities, as they have not been tested in league play. O-M turned a lot of heads last year by advancing to the semifinals.
Andy Colbert
Private schools have more of mystery to them year-toyear than do publics. After watching Stockton play Polo and Le-Win against Forreston, I would rate LeWin superior to Stockton. I sense that Forreston did not have its best game against L-W, but the Panthers may have had something to do with that.

By Zach Arbogast zarbogast@oglecounty news.com The Performing Arts Guild (PAG) is performing the 1938 radio drama that convinced the world aliens were actually invading. This weekend is the last opportunity to see the production of “The War Of The Worlds” that began on Oct. 15 at the theater at the Pinecrest Grove Community Center, Mt. Morris. This weekend’s shows will feature the Oregon High School Jazz Band. For anyone not familiar with the play, it has a rich history spanning multiple adaptations
— movies, television, and theatre have all recreated the 1897 H.G. Wells original story. The most famous (or infamous) version was the 1938 radio drama directed and narrated by Orson Welles. Broadcast on Halloween, it was presented with such realistic news bulletins that listeners became worked into a panic believing martians were taking over Earth. In the spirit of the Halloween season, the PAG of Mt. Morris has recreated the ballroom and broadcast station setting — complete with a live Foley, musical performances, and catered dessert by McKendrie Street Cafe.
While there isn’t a shortage of theatre productions between the Ogle, Lee, and Whiteside County regions, few companies recreate these radio drama experiences. “People have conflicts,” said Jeff Bold, director of the show and president of PAG. “With people working and going to school, a typical six-week production schedule becomes difficult.” The shorter, lighter schedule of a radio drama allows people to try out who otherwise wouldn’t be able to. Other radio dramas PAG has performed include “It’s A Wonderful Life” in 2013 and a special Christmas-time variety show of several short dramas
in 2009. Two shows of “The War of the Worlds” are scheduled for this weekend, Saturday, Oct. 22 at 7:30 p.m. and Sunday, Oct. 23 at 2 p.m. Pinecrest Grove Community Center is on South McKendrie Avenue and Evergreen, Mt. Morris. This weekend’s shows will feature the Oregon High School Jazz Band. Tickets $15 for adults and $13 for students and include dessert catered by McKendrie Street Cafe.

By Cody Cutter Sauk Valley Media Ashlyn Horn and the rest of the Dixon Duchesses volleyball seniors had never beaten Oregon before their BNC match on Oct. 13 at Lancaster Gymnasium. On a night where she and her classmates were honored for Senior Night, Horn had a hot hand from the service line to lead the Duchesses to a 25-19, 24-26, 25-21 win. The night was extra special for Horn, who grew up playing with many of the Hawks players before moving to Dixon to start high school. “It’s the first time we’ve beat Oregon in all of my high school years,” Horn said. “It was so good to finally get that win against them.” Horn had four of the 12 aces the Duchesses (15-11, 4-4 BNC) fired off in the match. She reeled off two in a row to give her team a 20-18 third-set lead, breaking free from a tight set and putting the Duchesses up for good. “Ashlyn Horn pulled that one off,” Duchesses senior Jessa Long said. “It was a rivalry with Oregon, because she used to go to school there. It was pretty awesome for her to do that. She played her heart out.” Prior to Horn’s pocket aces, the Hawks carried momentum after winning a close second set to a 15-10 lead in the third. The Hawks had 10 kills during a 23-point span after a second-set tie at 19, with Oregon coach Faith Watson attributing it to an

increase in hustle. Despite the loss, Watson still had high praise for her team about the way they stayed competitive throughout the match. Gylian Finch led the Hawks with six kills and a block, Bailey Nelson had four kills and a block, and Aleah Wight had three aces. “We ended with a loss, but a loss isn’t necessarily a bad thing,” Watson said. “Our effort and our hustle were definitely they best I’ve seen in a long time in the end of the second game and toward the beginning of the third. We’ll take it as a win in our book.” Dixon led wire-to-wire in its first-set win, with the Hawks getting as close as 14-13. After a Hawks hitting error, Long fired off three straight kills from the left corner and tipped another for a four-point string.
Long finished with 14 kills and 11 assists. “We’ve been having a rough season before this,” Long said, “and everything just came together for Senior Night, and that’s pretty nice.” “We brought our ‘A’ game tonight,” Horn said. “It was surprising, because we were all emotional from it being Senior Night. We just really wanted to get that win.” Settling into a new 6-2 rotation, the Duchesses put together one of the their better matches of the second half of the season, one in which they’ve struggled. “They just really wanted it tonight,” Dixon coach Bunyan Cocar said. “I haven’t seen them play with that much intensity most of the season. They really wanted to beat Oregon on Senior Night. They were motivated, and executed when they needed to.”

To the Electors of the State of Illinois: The Illinois Constitution establishes 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. The purpose of this document is to inform you of proposed changes to the Illinois Constitution and provide you with a brief explanation and a summary of the arguments in favor of and in opposition to the proposed amendment. Proposed changes in the existing constitutional amendment are indicated by underscoring all new matter and by crossing with a line all matter which is to be deleted. PROPOSED AMENDMENT TO ADD SECTION 11 TO ARTICLE IX OF THE ILLINOIS CONSTITUTION ARTICLE IX – REVENUE SECTION 11. TRANSPORTATION FUNDS (a) No moneys, including bond proceeds, derived from taxes, fees, excises, or license taxes relating to registration, title, or operation or use of vehicles, or related to the use of highways, roads, streets, bridges, mass transit, intercity passenger rail, ports, airports, or to fuels used for propelling vehicles, or derived from taxes, fees, excises, or license taxes relating to any other transportation infrastructure or transportation operation, shall be expended for purposes other than as provided in subsections (b) and (c). (b) Transportation funds may be expended for the following: the costs of administering laws related to vehicles and transportation, including statutory refunds and adjustments provided in those laws; payment of highway obligations; costs for construction, reconstruction, maintenance, repair, and betterment of highways, roads, streets, bridges, mass transit, intercity passenger rail, ports, airports, or other forms of transportation; and other statutory highway purposes. Transportation funds may also be expended for the State or local share of highway funds to match federal aid highway funds, and expenses of grade separation of highways and railroad crossings, including protection of at-grade highways and railroad crossings, and, with respect to local governments, other transportation purposes as authorized by law. (c) The costs of administering laws related to vehicles and transportation shall be limited to direct program expenses related to the following: the enforcement of traffic, railroad, and motor carrier laws; the safety of highways, roads, streets, bridges, mass transit, intercity passenger rail, ports, or airports; and the construction, reconstruction, improvement, repair, maintenance, operation, and administration of highways, under any related provisions of law or any purpose related or incident to, including grade separation of highways and railroad crossings. The limitations to the costs of administering laws related to vehicles and transportation under this subsection (c) shall also include direct program expenses related to workers’ compensation claims for death or injury of employees of the State’s transportation agency; the acquisition of land and the erection of buildings for highway purposes, including the acquisition of highway rights-of-way or for investigations to determine the reasonable anticipated future highway needs; and the making of surveys, plans, specifications, and estimates for the construction and maintenance of flight strips and highways. The expenses related to the construction and maintenance of flight strips and highways under this subsection (c) are for the purpose of providing access to military and naval reservations, defense-industries, defense-industry sites, and sources of raw materials, including the replacement of existing highways and highway connections shut off from general use at military and naval reservations, defense-industries, and defense-industry sites, or the purchase of rights-of-way. (d) None of the revenues described in subsection (a) of this Section shall, by transfer, offset, or otherwise, be diverted to any purpose other than those described in subsections (b) and (c) of this Section. (e) If the General Assembly appropriates funds for a mode of transportation not described in this Section, the General Assembly must provide for a dedicated source of funding. (f) Federal funds may be spent for any purposes authorized by federal law. EXPLANATION The proposed amendment adds a new Section to the Revenue Article of the Illinois Constitution that provides revenue generated from transportation related taxes and fees (referred to as “transportation funds”) shall be used exclusively for transportation related purposes. Transportation related taxes and fees include motor fuel taxes, vehicle registration fees, and other taxes and user fees dedicated to public highways, roads, streets, bridges, mass transit (buses and rail), ports, or airports. Under the proposed amendment, transportation funds may be used by the State or local governments only for the following purposes: (1) costs related to administering transportation and vehicle laws, including public safety purposes and the payment of obligations such as bonds; (2) the State or local share necessary to secure federal funds or for local government transportation purposes as authorized by law; (3) the construction, reconstruction, improvement, repair, maintenance, and operation of highways, mass transit, and railroad crossings; (4) expenses related to workers’ compensation claims for death or injury of transportation agency employees; and (5) to purchase land for building highways or buildings for to be used for highway purposes. This new Section is a limitation on the power of the General Assembly or a unit of local government to use, divert, or transfer transportation funds for a purpose other than transportation. It does not, and is not intended to, impact or change the way in which the State and local governments use sales taxes, including the sales and excise tax on motor fuel, or alter home rule powers granted under this Constitution. It does not seek to change the way in which the State funds programs administered by the Illinois Secretary of State, Illinois Department of Transportation, and operations by the Illinois State Police directly dedicated to the safety of roads, or entities or programs funded by units of local government. Further, the Section does not impact the expenditure of federal funds, which may be spent for any purpose authorized by federal law. FORM OF BALLOT Proposed Amendment to the 1970 Illinois Constitution Explanation of Amendment The proposed amendment adds a new section to the Revenue Article of the Illinois Constitution. The proposed amendment provides that no moneys derived from taxes, fees, excises, or license taxes, relating to registration, titles, operation, or use of vehicles or public highways, roads, streets, bridges, mass transit, intercity passenger rail, ports, or airports, or motor fuels, including bond proceeds, shall be expended for other than costs of administering laws related to vehicles and transportation, costs for construction, reconstruction, maintenance, repair, and betterment of public highways, roads, streets, bridges, mass transit, intercity passenger rail, ports, airports, or other forms of transportation, and other statutory highway purposes, including the State or local share to match federal aid highway funds. You are asked to decide whether the proposed amendment should become part of the Illinois Constitution. YES –––– NO

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- Stay neutral, no matter what happens today. The less you divulge about your particular views, the easier it will be to keep the peace and manipulate the situation at a crucial moment. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- Ulterior motives, emotional manipulation and poor information will surface if you don’t take a time-out to digest what’s transpiring. Nothing is as bad as it seems, so chill out.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- Making travel plans or reuniting with old friends will lift your spirits. Selfimprovement projects will make you feel good about your appearance and potential.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -Don’t question what you need to do; just do it. It’s important to put the past behind you so that you can move forward without hesitation, worry or regret. Love is highlighted.
PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -Look for an opportunity to get ahead. Good fortune is within reach if you don’t get sucked into other people’s dilemmas. Protect against insult or injury.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- Emotions will flare up, and restraint and discipline will be required. Find unorthodox solutions instead of getting angry and making matters worse. Choose love and peace over chaos.
ARIES (March 21-April 19) -A change will result in good fortune and new opportunities. Discuss your thoughts and plans with a loved one in order to come up with a good solution and a workable plan. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- A clear mind will lead to good choices. Don’t let others’ actions phase you. If you follow your instincts, you will enjoy the benefits of a winning situation.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -Business or pleasure trips will give you greater insight into ways you can exploit your skills, knowledge and expertise. Mix business with pleasure in order to advance. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- Put everything you’ve got into doing the best job possible. Don’t let an emotional incident make you less productive or cause damage to your reputation. Be true to yourself. ©2016 UFS
