JOLIET – Statewide, it’s called the “Cupcake Law.” In Joliet, it might be called the “Potica Law.” Joliet City Councilman Jim McFarland said he learned from his “potica lady” that orders for the nut-roll pastry that is a Slovenian Christmas tradition could be jeopardized by a state law that cracks down on home-based
bakery operations. McFarland said his wife is Slovenian, and it’s a tradition in my family to enjoy potica. My potica lady told me there’s a problem.” McFarland is inviting potica ladies throughout Joliet to come to the Joliet City Council Land Use Committee meeting Wednesday to offer their advice as to whether the city should act to soften the impact of the Cupcake Law. The committee meets at 3
p.m. at City Hall, 150 W. Jefferson St. McFarland said the new law makes it illegal for people to sell goods baked at home for a profit. But Joliet can adopt the Cupcake Law to allow residents to bake at home for a profit under the following conditions: • Monthly gross sales do not exceed $1,000; • The food is not a potentially hazardous baked food; • A notice is provided to the
buyer that the product was made in a home kitchen. McFarland said he and other council members are hearing from home bakers who have been getting notices from the county health department. “With the holidays approaching, a lot of our cultures in the Joliet community enjoy things like strudel and potica,” he said. “People have been doing this for years, and it’s never been an issue.”

Gov. Pat Quinn speaks Saturday while announcing $5 million in state funding for interior construction at the Joliet Junior College City Center Campus in downtown Joliet.
Quinn announces funding for JJC By BRIAN STANLEY bstanley@shawmedia.com JOLIET – The state will provide $5 million to help finish interior construction of the Joliet Junior College City Center campus. Gov. Pat Quinn announced the funding Saturday inside the six-story building that occupies the spot of the former White Store at Chicago and Webster streets. Quinn said while he was speaking to the Chamber of Commerce last month, Will County State’s Attorney James Glasgow asked him about funds for the downtown site. “I thought about it and we were able to work this [under] Illinois Jobs Now,” Quinn said. “I used to teach community college myself at Prairie State... [Funding education] is about
jobs. This is about making sure men and women who want skills can learn skills.” Quinn said there are a million students currently enrolled in the state’s 48 community colleges and noted JJC was the first in the country. He feels utilizing different locations and schedules provides opportunities for older students. “This is so important [JJC offers] a variety of campuses accessible to students,” Quinn said. “College learning is a lifelong process, not just right after high school.” Quinn said he and Mayor Tom Giarrante recently discussed the City Center campus and high-speed rail projects as initial steps toward revitalizing downtown Joliet. “We are thrilled to receive this investment,” JJC President Debra Daniels said. “This
is a wonderful investment in downtown Joliet and Will County and will benefit generations to come.” The $58 million City Center campus will house the adult education and literacy department, workforce development and the culinary arts program. Besides classrooms, the building will house a large cafeteria on the first floor, with dining and public areas on the second floor. College spokeswoman Kelly Rohder said Saturday the building is expected to open in fall 2016. City Center campus will connect to the hallways and ballroom of the college’s Renaissance Center, which will eventually be renovated. The adjoining building to the north, the former Sheraton Hotel, will be demolished and the space used for parking.

COVER STORY

By LAUREN LEONE–CROSS lleonecross@shawmedia.com WILL COUNTY – Nearly half of Will County land is still used for farming, and local farmers have been harvesting their share of what is expected to be a record corn crop. Yield is up and crop conditions are good, but recent chilly and wet weather conditions have put many farmers in the region weeks behind on their corn and soybean harvest – long before they could even get a running start. Less than 15 percent of the corn crop in Will County has been harvested as of last week, compared to the usual pace of 50 percent, said Mark Schneidewind, manager of the Will County Farm Bureau. Things aren’t much better statewide, with heavy rains putting corn harvest at 23 percent completion, well behind the 2009-13 national average of 45 percent, according to an Oct. 6 U.S. Department of Agriculture report. Nationwide, just 18 percent of soybeans have been cut, down from 32 percent over the past five years. In Will County, just 5 percent of soybeans have been harvested, compared to the current national average of 20 percent, Schneidewind said. Soybeans and corn make up the region’s two biggest crops. Schneidewind said he isn’t too concerned, because the weather is expected to turn around in the next couple of weeks, giving farmers a chance to catch up after a late start to spring planting. But the longer the harvest season wears on, the greater chance there is for loss, he said. “As we stretch further along toward winter, you have more of an opportunity to possibly lose part of that
By the numbers Today, just under half of Will County’s 540,000 acres is considered farmland, compared to 25 years ago when about 55 percent of Will County was designated farmland, according to Will County Farm Bureau Manager Mark Schneidewind. There was a time when Will County was losing 2,000 acres per year to development, such as the two CenterPoint Properties trucking intermodals in Elwood and Joliet, the Chicagoland Speedway, and various subdivisions skirting the edges of Joliet and other cities. Acreage losses have slowed since then, Schneidewind said, but there will be future loss with the proposed development of the Illiana Expressway in southern Will County near Wilmington and the South Suburban Airport in Peotone.

crop in the field,” Schneidewind said. “If we get an early snow like we did last year, and people aren’t done … snow is really tough on things. There is that concern, but if we get a good window here in October, I think things will be OK.”
That means farming remains a big part of the local economy. The sluggish local harvest, coupled with recent moisture and a cooler summer, has some farmers concerned about the lag in the corn crop’s maturity.
Record corn crop
Harvest slowed by weather
The good news, according to the latest report, is that the USDA expects farmers this year to bring in about 14.4 billion bushels of corn – the largest ever on record for the U.S. Corn yields are expected to average about 171.7 bushels an acre, up about 13 bushels from the 2013 average. Soybean production is forecast at a record 3.91 billion bushels, up 19 percent from last year. While Will County has become increasingly urban, just under half of the 540,000 acres in the county is still consider farmland, Schneidewind said.
“The crop needs to heat to fully develop and mature,” said Grundy County farmer Steve Kodak, who owns 2,000 acres of farmland for corn and soybeans in Morris. “Things were starting to develop a couple of weeks ago, but a cold snap slowed everything down.” He’s behind schedule, having harvested a little less than 400 of his 2,000 acres. While Kodak’s corn crop continues to mature, he plans to switch periodically to harvesting soybeans before the crop dries out. In Manhattan, fourth-generation farmer Dave Kestel
finally got back out onto the fields last week after nagging rainfall and lower temperatures thwarted earlier efforts. With about 1,200 acres of corn and soybean to harvest, Kestel said he plans on going well into November, considering the late start he, and virtually every other area farmer, had with spring planting. The challenge facing farm-
ers is getting the crops harvested before the weather turns bitterly cold, he said. By that time, crops are matured, meaning they’re more vulnerable to disease and poor weather conditions. “We want to be done by Thanksgiving. It can snow anytime after Thanksgiving,” Kestel said. “Let’s face it. That’s our paycheck out there. We can’t leave it.”

Minooka school is site of active shooter drill Police, firefighters and teachers part of multidepartment training By BRIAN STANLEY bstanley@shawmedia.com MINOOKA – Mayor Pat Brennan was visiting family in Colorado a few years ago when he took his grandsons to a local park. “Beautiful place, huge park ... you had to drive into it, baseball fields, lots of kids playing and a school at the end of it,” he recalled Friday. “I asked my son the name of the place [and when] he said ‘Columbine’ all the memories flashed back ... images of kids crawling out those windows,” Brennan said. Brennan, speaking Friday to faculty gathered with police and firefighters at Minooka Intermediate School for an active shooter drill, recalled that day in Colorado.
“And I thought this could never happen in an elementary school,” Brennan said. The December 2012 shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Connecticut “showed that [isn’t true]. This is a very serious thing.” Before the Columbine massacre in 1999, police officers who responded to such situations were trained to surround the building until a SWAT team arrived. Now the first officers on the scene are expected to confront an attacker as soon as possible to reduce casualties. “We do hard lockdowns and soft lockdowns at all the schools regularly, but this is our first staged drill, which John Patsch for Shaw Media

Victim alleges Will County judge witnessed son threaten to kill her By BRIAN STANLEY bstanley@shawmedia.com JOLIET – Court documents allege a Will County judge witnessed her son threaten to kill his girlfriend during a domestic dispute last week and then drove him to work at his new job at the courthouse. An order of protection filed by the 28-year-old woman against Louis D. Goode alleges he said “I’m going to kill you. You’ll never get custody of your son. Better get Louis D. a good lawyer,” Goode to the woman in front of his mother, Judge Carla Alessio-Policandriotes. Goode, 29, was arrested Oct. 6 on charges of aggravated domestic battery, domestic battery and unlawful restraint for allegedly choking the woman, pulling her hair and kicking
her and forcing her to get inside the trunk of a car. He is being held in the county jail on $50,000 bond. According to the protection order, the couple bickered Oct. 5. She believed he’d been drinking too much alcohol while he felt she was nagging him too often. The couple resided with the victim’s parents, her 5-year-old daughter and their 1-year-old son on Barber Lane in Joliet Township. About 11:30 p.m. the woman saw $70 had been taken from her wallet and confronted Goode, who got it from a dresser drawer and ripped it up in front of her, according to the protection order. Goode allegedly broke the woman’s cellphone before they went both went outside the house where he kicked her and choked her, according to court documents. Goode “pulled her by the hair up [to] his car” and told her to get in the trunk, the victim said. After letting her out “quick-
ly” he pulled her back into the house again and they went to sleep in their bedroom, according to the protection order. After the argument resumed the next morning, the woman said she tried to call 911 from the house phone, but Goode grabbed it as his mother arrived to pick him up for his first day of work on the jury commission at the courthouse. “She got out of the car and [kept saying] ‘Lou, get in the car.’ He then threw the house phone into the garage” and made the threats before getting in the car, according to the protection order. Will County sheriff’s deputies arrived from the 911 hangup and interviewed the victim, who was then taken to the police station. Goode had been hired three days earlier without going through a background check and the routine hiring process. Chief Judge Richard Schoenstedt, who hired Goode, said he “needed someone quick” to
help coordinate juries for trials while other employees are on leave. The victim, who was not hospitalized for her injuries, was at the courthouse obtaining the protection order Monday afternoon when Goode left for his first lunch break and was taken into custody for questioning. Schoenstedt fired Goode later that day. Alessio-Policandriotes did not return a message asking for comment Friday. The chief judge said Friday he has not spoken to her about the allegations. “It would be improper for me to ask any questions while the investigation is ongoing because she’s a potential witness,” Schoenstedt said. An appellate prosecutor has been assigned and Schoenstedt said Friday the Illinois Supreme Court has authorized a judge from the 13th Circuit, which also includes Grundy and LaSalle counties, to handle the case.
Will County court records show Goode pleaded guilty to 2009 to driving under the influence and received a year of probation. That case was also handled by an appellate prosecutor. He had previously received several tickets for speeding and seat belt violations. Schoenstedt said misdemeanor and felony convictions do not automatically make someone ineligible to work at the courthouse, but more questions are asked of potential employees with criminal records. Alessio-Policandriotes was appointed as an associate judge in 2001 and was elected as a circuit judge the following year. She handles felony cases and supervises programs that allow nonviolent substance abusers and veterans to have their records cleared when they complete treatment. Both Alessio-Policandriotes and Schoenstedt are up for retention in next month’s election.

Sabec brothers come home to rebuilt house New Lenox project completed By BRIAN STANLEY bstanley@shawmedia.com NEW LENOX – Supporters raised more than $20,000 to renovate the home of three elderly brothers. Thousands of dollars in building materials, furniture and appliances also were donated to the project. But before Don, Lawrence and Ray Sabec arrived to see the improvements Saturday morning, ShareFest of Will County’s Gary Cheney asked for one last contribution for those gathered in the driveway on Prairie Road – pocket change to be put in a new Mason jar. “While we were talking, Ray remembered when they were kids their mom had always kept a jar of pennies on the shelf for candy,” Cheney said. While the new jar can remind the Sabecs of their history in the house, the rest of the structure where they’ve lived since 1946 has changed in the last – well ... There was a friendly disagreement whether the time spent on the project was best described as more than two months or less than three between Rob Lach, executive director of Operation Nehemiah, a construction ministry, and
Vice President Chris Goodson, as they awaited the Sabecs arrival Saturday. Lach said about 70 volunteers spent weekends completely gutting the New Lenox house to replace rotten wood and install a new roof, windows, plumbing and wiring. “The worst part was the 18 inches of worms we had to dig out to get the plumbing,” Goodson said. “But except for one corner [section] the original studs were all good.” “This was built when a 2-by4 was 2-by-4. Made from real wood,” Lach agreed. Don Sabec is 81, Lawrence is 77 and Ray is 67. The brothers stayed in the house, but didn’t have the resources to maintain it after their parents died. “With winter coming it brings back memories of water pipes busting, drafty windows and turning on the heater and burning out the fuses. Using [the last of our] money to pay for fuses,” Ray Sabec said. Being restricted to the necessities of existence meant the Sabecs weren’t able to cook healthy meals as they wished or invite friends to come over. “It’s hard do that with the house a mess, and when you don’t [see people] you become socially awkward and you have
no involvement in your community. That’s how it evolves,” Ray Sabec said. With his brothers standing beside him next to their front step, Ray Sabec choked up as he thanked the volunteers and supporters. “They didn’t just rebuild a
house. They rebuilt our lives,” he said. “We encourage others to accept help so they can pay it forward, too.” The Sabecs hope to organize a community project to clean up a nearby creek and donate vegetables when they start gardening again.
But to see the back garden, the Sabec brothers will have to look across the small deck which got the loudest “Oh my” as they walked through the rebuilt home for the first time. “Thirty years ago I wanted a deck. ... for 30 years and now I’ve got it,” Ray Sabec beamed.

th
merchandise selection had become more limited, the employee said. Grant’s decline was related to the impact of the recession, he said, noting that customers’ buying habits had changed drastically. “We had more people coming into Grant’s asking for dented and used stuff and parts than wanted new,” the employee said. “It’s the state of the economy.” The company originated in Joliet and operated for decades out of a two-story building on Collins Street with wooden floors. The Grant family operated the business with little advertising and without even putting price tags on merchan-
dise. But people knew they could get a good deal by bargaining with the store’s sales staff, and the business attracted customers throughout the Chicago region. Robert Wysocki bought the business from the Grant family. Unlike the Grants, who relied on word-of-mouth advertising, Wysocki marketed the business and built it into a regional chain that thrived along with the housing market before the recession hit. Attempts to reach Wysocki since Thursday have been unsuccessful. • The Herald-News staff writer Felix Sarver contributed to this article.

JOLIET – Grant’s company representatives were not available again Friday to explain how customer orders will be handled now that the stores have closed. The appliance and electronics retailer with a 90-year history in Joliet closed down Wednesday night. One employee said sales were still being made during the day Wednesday before word came down the stores were closing. “The shocking thing about it was the sales people were the last ones to know,” said the employee, who asked not to be named. “I’m calling back people and apologizing. I felt terrible.” The employees said he was
told by management appliances purchased by customers would be available in a few weeks. But the company would be going through liquidation. Customers who showed up at the Joliet store Thursday only found a paper sign taped to glass next to the door saying, “Temporarily closed for inventory.” Grant’s, which started in Joliet more than 90 years ago and grew into a regional chain in recent years, had five stores when it closed. One of the two stores in Downers Grove had closed recently. In addition to Joliet, Grant’s had stores in Aurora, Orland Park and Merrillville, Indiana. Other stores had closed in recent years. The company at one time had stores in the northwest suburbs and Chicago.
The Joliet location, which includes a warehouse, is listed for sale with Colliers International. The 86,000-square-foot property at 321 Republic Ave. is listed at $4.2 million on the Colliers International website. Aimee Val, vice president for marketing and communications at Colliers International, said the real estate company was working with a client on the Joliet property. But she declined to say anything more. The Grant’s employee said the company’s problems had become evident. The retailer was unable to get Whirlpool products, which include a number of major brand appliances, in recent months, and

Dunn, Batinick competing Joliet names 4 new deputy police chiefs to fill void in 97th District THE HERALD-NEWS
By VIKAAS SHANKER
Election Central
vshanker@shawmedia.com The 97th District state representative seat is open for the taking with no incumbent running. Republican Mark Batinick and Democratic Moira Dunn are trying to fill the void. State Rep. Tom Cross, R-Oswego, is vacating his seat and running for state treasurer. His challenger in several elections, Democrat Dennis Grosskopf, dropped out after the primaries due to personal reasons. That left the door open for two new faces in the district.
Who are they? Mark Batinick owns a real estate business specializing in property for small businesses. He grew up in Lansing and has a degree in business edu- Mark cation from the Batinick University of Illinois. Batinick lives in Plainfield and is married with five kids under the age of 19, two sons and three daughters. His wife is a special education teacher. Batinick has coached kids basketball and soccer teams. He has been a member of the Plainfield and Oswego chambers of commerce, past

chairman of “For the Good of Illinois” political action committee and a precinct committeeman. He unsuccessfully ran for Will County Auditor in 2012. Moira Dunn was born in Joliet and grew up in Will County. She lives in Shorewood and is an assistant Will County state’s attorney. She received her bachelor degree in finance from Miami University in Ohio and her law degree from DePaul University. Moira Dunn is the daughter of Thomas Dunn, a former state senator and former Will County judge. She is not married. Dunn is a member of the Will County Bar Association and the Will County Women’s Bar Association. She also participates in the Big Brothers Big Sisters Mentor 2.0 program. She unsuccessfully ran for Will County judge in the spring election, but was selected by the Will and Kendall Democratic organizations to replace Grosskopf on the No-
vember ballot for state representative.
The issues Dunn draws strength from her own experience. While in law school, she discovered she had a brain tumor and underwent surgery after graduating. “I think we need more people in Spring- Moira field that know Dunn what it’s like to suffer like I did,” Dunn said, referring to the struggles of constituents in the district. Dunn opposes the income tax extension, wants to alleviate property taxes, and wants to put more funding towards education, veteran services and kids with special needs. Batinick believes in supporting small business. He points to the gradual decline in business he has seen in his hometown of Lansing, which borders Indiana. “I saw empty businesses that moved across the border to Indiana,” Batinick said. “My town was destroyed not by a disaster, but bad economic policy.” Batinick’s main goal is job creation. He also wants to alleviate property taxes and increase funding for social services, especially for the mentally ill.

When we correct the underlying cause of your fat retention, losing weight becomes fast, easy, and permanent. Our state of the art cell-scanning technology unveils exactly what you need to clear out your body’s toxins and restore balance to your microbes and neurotransmitters. Each program is so personalized that no two people are ever the same. Your program is made exclusively for you. A “one-size-fits-all” weight loss program will only take you so far (and after many months of hunger and a boatload of cash). Targeting your specific hormone makeup is the key to fast and effective weight loss. Our NFR Technology essentially takes your hormonal fingerprint to determine the exact ingredients you need to bring your body in to an optimal state of fat burning. And beyond initial weight loss, restoring balance with the NutraMost system actually resets your metabolism and weight set point so that you keep the weight off after you lose it.
I lost 30 pounds in 40 days! My energy is through the roof, and I am down 5 inches in my waist. I was not hungry at all during the plan despite a very low calorie diet. I have always had migraines that have kept me from dieting in the past. I have not had a single migraine since I started Nutrimost. I have been on Prilosec daily for acid reflux and was able to stop taking it after a couple weeks of being on the plan. I cut my blood pressure medication in half during the 40 days, and I can’t wait to visit my doctor again to get my dosage adjusted.

By BRIAN STANLEY bstanley@shawmedia.com JOLIET – Sentencing has been delayed for a woman convicted in the Hickory Street murders. The sentencing hearing for Bethany McKee is now scheduled for Nov. 4. It previously had been set for Oct. 16. McKee, 20, was convicted in August for the murders of Eric Glover Jr. and Terrence Rankins, both 22, on Jan. 9, 2013, at a house i n t h e 1 1 0 0 Bethany block of North McKee Hickory Street in Joliet. McKee’s lawyer Chuck Bretz said Friday his office staff needed additional time
to review more than 400 pages of reports they’ve received from McKee’s pre-sentence investigation. The defense also has filed a motion for a new trial, which will be heard by Judge Gerald Kinney on Nov. 3. If the motion for a new trial is unsuccessful, sentencing will be held the following day. While Joshua Miner and Adam Landerman allegedly strangled the victims, McKee and her friend Alisa Massaro also were charged with murder for their participation in setting up the robbery that led to their deaths. Massaro agreed to testify against the others in exchange for lesser charges. Miner was found guilty Wednesday. Landerman is awaiting trial.

• GOTTA DO IT
Maya seeks a new trial Claims his lawyer should have sought psychological evaluation By BRIAN STANLEY bstanley@shawmedia.com JOLIET – Erick M. Maya, convicted of gunning down a teenage girl in her driveway earlier this year, has asked for a new trial. Maya, 24, filed a motion Wednesday claiming attorney George Lenard was ineffective in defending him against murder and attempted murder charges from the Feb. 13 shooting in Romeoville. Erick M. Maya said Maya neither Lenard nor prosecutors had him undergo a psychological evaluation to determine if he was fit to stand trial for the slaying of Briana Valle, 15, and attempted murder of her mother, Alicia Guerrero. Maya was hospitalized for 18 days when he was 17 and diagnosed as schizophrenic with severe obsessive and compulsive tendencies, according to the motion. Maya claims Lenard “never considered” an insanity defense and never subpoenaed his hospital records. “The defendant’s mother admitted the defendant was mentally ill and needed help,” Maya claims in the motion. Lenard, who did not file the motion, declined to comment
Friday after it was presented to Judge Robert Livas. Maya was found guilty in September of two counts of murder, attempted murder, aggravated battery with a firearm and unauthorized possession of a firearm by a felon. He was expected to be sentenced Oct. 20, but Livas must now hold a hearing. Maya met Valle through Facebook in the summer of 2012. Valle at one point ran away from home to be with Maya, who was eight years older than her. Despite her parents’ objections, Valle accepted “an engagement ring” before moving on to other relationships when her family moved from Cicero to Romeoville. When Valle told Maya she had begun dating another boy, he sent text messages threatening to rape her and kill her family. Guerrero obtained an order of protection against Maya. A taxi driver took Maya to the 300 block of Emery Avenue in Romeoville, where the family lived, two days before the shooting and again the morning of the Feb. 13 shooting, according to trial testimony. Maya was found hiding under a porch two blocks away after police surrounded the neighborhood when Valle and Guerrero were shot.

By BRIAN STANLEY bstanley@shawmedia.com JOLIET – An Arlington Heights man died Thursday after his vehicle rolled over off Millsdale Road. The crash occurred about 5:30 p.m. Joliet Police Chief Brian Benton said officers arrived to find a black 2006 Chevrolet HHR flipped over in a bean field east of Brandon Road. Paul J. Solarz, 62, was extricated by firefighters, but was pronounced dead at the scene
LOCAL NEWS | The Herald-News / TheHerald-News.com
Arlington Heights man dies in Joliet car crash at 8:03 p.m. according to the Will County Coroner’s Office. Solarz did not have any passengers. He was wearing a seat belt and his airbag deployed in the crash. “From the initial investigation it appears the vehicle was eastbound on Millsdale and came over the Union Pacific railroad tracks [where] the driver somehow lost control,” Benton said. An autopsy performed Friday determined Solarz sustained spinal injuries during the crash.
• DRILL Continued from page 4 we will be doing regularly now under state law,” Minooka Police Chief Justin Meyer said. “By testing our response to an incident, it helps us determine what we need to improve on.” In a real attack, police and paramedics from neighboring communities would also respond. Officer Ken Briley, the emergency service coordinator, said just having the drill helped in that it required them to know the locations of schools in Minooka. Evaluators from other departments in Will, Grundy and Kendall counties watched as certain hallways were blocked off with yellow tape. “[They’ll] all follow the
first team in for a few minutes and then move to separate areas to watch for different things,” Deputy Minooka Fire Chief Brad Sprague said. In another room, makeup artists painted bullet wounds and injuries on volunteers who would portray victims when the drill started. Real weapons were kept from the building, while participating officers were given simulators that produced noise and smoke. Briley acknowledged hearing gunfire and seeing simulated corpses in the hallways bothered some of the teachers. “I understand they didn’t sign up for Fort Knox,” Briley said. “We don’t want to think about it, but [an attack] is a real possibility. That’s why we want the most safe environment.”

Former ‘SNL’ cast member Jan Hooks dies at age 57 The ASSOCIATED PRESS NEW YORK – Former “Saturday Night Live” cast member Jan Hooks, whose impressions ranged from Nancy Reagan to Sinead O’Connor to Tammy Faye B a k k e r during a fiveyear stint on the show, has died. T h e 57-year-old Hooks died Jan Hooks Thursday in New York, according to her agent, Lisa Lieberman. She had no other details. Hooks, a Decatur, Georgia, native, moved into prime time in 1991 as a cast member on the sitcom “Designing Women.” She later did an Emmy Award-nominated turn on “3rd Rock From the Sun.” She also appeared in 1992’s “Batman Returns” and voiced convenience store owner Apu’s wife on “The Simpsons” for several years. On “SNL,” she was part of a 1986 cast infusion that included fellow standouts Dana Carvey and Phil Hartman that helped the show after the previous season’s ratings dive. “I was 15 years old when I first saw Jan Hooks on SNL. All of her characters spoke to me. She was one of the greats,” SNL alum Amy Poehler said in a statement. A former member of the influential comedy troupe The Groundlings, she had been rejected twice before for a spot on the NBC comedy institution. Besides impersonations that included Bette Davis and Hillary Rodham Clinton, Hooks won laughs for original characters such as Candy, half of the bouffant-haired Sweeney Sisters lounge act. But being on a live weekly broadcast proved hard on the comic actress.

Creator of ‘Hook ’em Horns’ sign Harley Clark dead By JIM VERTUNO The Associated Press AUSTIN, Texas – Harley Clark, the former Texas cheerleader credited with introducing the “Hook ’em Horns” hand signal used by tens of thousands of Longhorns faithful over the past six decades, died Thursday at his farm outside of Austin, school officials said. He was 78. The school didn’t release details or a cause of death for Clark, who watched his hand sign become one of the most recognizable and familiar signs of support in college athletics. Clark introduced the hand sign – the index and pinky fingers extended and the two middle fingers tucked under the thumb – at a 1955 pep rally. It quickly caught on and became a universal symbol for the school and its athletic teams. Clark later became a lawyer and was appointed a state
of Will and Grundy Counties
ley Hutchison, a former Texas cheerleader and current president of the Texas Exes alumni group. She called the hand sign a “symbol of Longhorn pride that is recognized and shared around the globe.

ble. The dean of student life lectured Clark that the signal was considered a vulgarity in Sicily and might be misinterpreted in Texas. But it was too late to stop it. Texas fans show it during the signing of the “Eyes of Texas” before and after games, and there’s seldom a touchdown where a player doesn’t flash it for the cameras. Longhorns opponents liked to use it just as often, turning the signal upside down in a mocking gesture. The sign even reached the White House. It caused a Scandinavian scandal in 2005 when President George W. Bush and his daughter Jenna, a Texas graduate, flashed the sign during Bush’s inauguration parade. A Norwegian newspaper interpreted it as a sign saluting Satan. Clark is survived by his wife Patti, and four children. Funeral services were pending Thursday.

STATE Disney lover promotes National Guard By TONY REID Herald and Review PEORIA – The Disney princess in combat boots wants to make you an offer you can refuse. As a recruiter serving with the Illinois National Guard Recruiting and Retention Command in Peoria, Staff Sgt. Katie Jo Williams doesn’t believe in spinning fairy tales. She does love all things Disney, however, and sees herself as a wannabe Disney princess. But she won’t sugarcoat her pitch to recruits. The soldier from Altamont truly believes the military life is the best thing since sliced bread and points to its wondrous offerings, such as paying for your college education. But those who wear the country’s uniform have to accept certain cold realities: “You’re the nation’s defense,” said Williams, 24. “Chances are, when war breaks out, you are going to deploy. You can’t be afraid of that, because that is your job, that is what you signed up to do. If you can’t handle that, the military is probably not going to be for you.” Plenty of would-be soldiers, meeting the gaze of her honest brown eyes, tend to say “yes,” however. Everyone seems impressed with the integrity of her recruitment battle tactics,

Staff Sgt. Katie Jo Williams, a recruiter serving with the Illinois National Guard Recruiting and Retention Command in Peoria, works out at CrossFit East Peoria in East Peoria, where she does two workouts a day. Williams doesn’t believe in spinning fairy tales. She does love all things Disney, however, and sees herself as a wannabe Disney princess. But she won’t sugarcoat her national guard pitch to recruits. and female recruits also are thrilled to discover their persuasive sergeant is no one-dimensional GI Jane. “I tell young women I am doing this pageant and everything, and they are just so excited about it,” she said with a smile. “They think it’s great.” The pageant here is the “Ms. Veteran America” contest open to women who are serving or are former members of any branch of the nation’s armed services. The winner has to
triumph in a series of tests that probe their knowledge of military history and even their performance talents, which might be anything from painting to singing and dancing. There is a tough interview process, too, which will engage contestants on areas the judges describe as “grace, poise, confidence and personality.” Looks are not officially listed as a mission objective, but Williams said many contestants, including her, will be
wearing pretty frocks rather than desert fatigues, and she suspects appearance will factor in, at least a little. The winner will collect $15,000 and a lot of kudos, but what motivates Williams is the cause: The Ms. Veteran America contest raises money for the Final Salute organization, which provides homes for homeless women veterans and their children. “Apparently, there are 55,000 homeless female vets out there,” said Williams, her ever-ready smile fading for a moment. “I had no idea, and now I want to help.” The Ms. Veteran America contest began in June with 63 competitors, and a regional round has cut that down to 25 soldiers heading to the finals in Leesburg, Virginia, Sunday. Williams will be one of them after wowing the regional judges with her version of the “I See the Light” song from the Disney movie “Tangled.” “My sister says I sound like Mandy Moore, who sang it in the movie,” she said with her smile back in place. “I don’t know yet what I am going to sing in October.” She’s a little anxious about making the right choice, but it’s hard to imagine the dilemma will inflict many casualties on her nerves.
Williams grew up on the one hand as a “girly girl,” loving the Disney fantasy but also as a bold tomboy, swayed by tales of derring-do by her late grandfather, who served in the Navy and Army. By age 10, she had moved on, at least temporarily, from Disney to Steven Seagal movies, and that was when she told her mother she was probably going to become a hit man (or perhaps, hit person) for the Russian mob. As she mellowed with age, however, a stateside military career seemed a more reasonable choice. By 17, her elfin 5-foot-3, 130-pound frame was wearing a National Guard uniform, and by 18, she was serving a yearlong overseas tour “driving trucks all over Afghanistan.” She only hints at some of the dangers lurking on the remote dusty roads out there but said all’s well that ends well: “And all of our guys came back intact and alive,” Williams said. Her idea of a good time includes training for intensive CrossFit sporting competitions, and it was while working out at the CrossFit East Peoria gym that she met her boyfriend, gym instructor Cris Melton, a former Marine. He said his girl is ready to stage a frontal assault on the Ms. Veteran America event.
Governor hopefuls clash over Rauner’s taxes The ASSOCIATED PRESS CHICAGO – Illinois Republican gubernatorial candidate Bruce Rauner on Friday released parts of his 2013 federal and state income tax returns, which showed that the multimillionaire and his wife, Diana, earned nearly $61 million last year. The Rauners paid $17 million in federal and state taxes. About $14.3 million of that went to the federal government and nearly $2.9 million to Illinois, for a combined tax rate of about 27.5 percent.
The Winnetka venture capitalist had been criticized by his opponent, Democratic Gov. Pat Quinn, for not disclosing detailed tax returns earlier in the campaign. And the Quinn campaign again criticized the late Friday release of just eight pages of returns, calling them “wholly insufficient” and saying they “raise more questions than answers.” The returns did not detail Rauner’s sources of income. But they said the Rauners earned about $41.1 million in capital gains, which can come from financial investments
or real estate; $6.3 million in taxable dividends; $4.2 million from other sources, such as royalties, partnerships and trusts; and about $7.9 million from other sources. Earlier in the campaign, Rauner made public state and federal returns for 2010, 2011 and 2012. But none of them contain detailed schedules, forms that offer more information about Rauner’s business dealings and how he made his wealth. “What are his sources of income? What loopholes is he jumping through? Does he
have any conflicts of interest in his finances? The voters don’t know because Mr. Rauner is hiding this information from them,” Quinn campaign spokesman Brooke Anderson said in a statement. Rauner spokeswoman Lyndsey Walters dismissed the criticism as a “pathetic attack.” “Bruce has already disclosed every investment that does business in Illinois and pledged a blind trust if elected governor,” Walters said. The returns show the Rauners donated more than $5 mil-
lion to charity. That includes $1 million to Red Cross relief efforts after the Washington, Illinois, tornado. “Diana and I are proud to be able to give back to the state we love by supporting community organizations and giving those in need a helping hand,” Rauner said. Tax returns for Quinn – who releases his hand-written tax returns annually – show he made about $161,000 last year. Rauner’s 2012 returns show the Winnetka businessman made $53 million that year.

Ill. man facing assault charges
WEST PEORIA – A West Peoria man is accused of assaulting his pregnant girlfriend and then attacking sheriff’s deputies and trying to grab one of their guns during his arrest. According to a sheriff’s report, 28-year-old George I. Jernigan came home drunk Thursday and began shoving his girlfriend into walls. Charges against him include aggravated assault on a police officer, aggravated domestic battery and battery of an unborn child. The Peoria Journal Star reports that the woman, 25-year-old Brenda Banks, is four months pregnant. She told officers she grabbed a knife for protection during the confrontation and that her boyfriend was cut during the

Cubs, Selig break ground on Wrigley Field project
CHICAGO – The Chicago Cubs have officially launched their Wrigley Field renovation project with a groundbreaking ceremony that included Major League Baseball Commissioner Bud Selig. From a podium in the infield, Selig recalled his first visit to the century-old ballpark, in May 1944, just shy of his 10th birthday. He said Wrigley Field took hold of a special place in his heart “right then and there.” Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel also attended Saturday’s ceremony. The first phase of the privately funded $575 million project will add new bleachers and seven outfield signs. Work actually started in September after the season ended, despite a legal feud between

U of I honors LED inventor bypassed by Nobel
CHAMPAIGN – Colleagues have honored a retired University of Illinois professor they say deserved to win a Nobel Prize for inventing the first light-emitting diode, or LED. Nick Holonyak Jr. invented the tiny red light that made fiber-optics networks, DVDs and other technologies possible. On Tuesday the Nobel Prize in physics was awarded to Japanese scientists who invented the blue LED. Holonyak and many colleagues questioned the award. They say the blue LED wouldn’t have been possible without the work the 85-year-old Holonyak and others did. The Champaign News-Gazette reports Holynak’s colleagues recognized his achievement at the Friday dedication of the new University of Illinois Electrical

Illinois mom pleads not guilty to killing daughter
WAUKEGAN – A northern Illinois woman accused of killing her 11-year-old daughter has pleaded not guilty to first-degree murder. The Waukegan News-Sun reports that 32-year-old Nicholette R. Lawrence of Waukegan entered the plea at an arraignment Thursday in Lake County Circuit Court. Her daughter, Raashanai Coley, died in September from injuries that police and prosecutors say were caused by abuse. Police say the woman admitted punching the girl in the stomach earlier in the week. An autopsy showed signs of malnutrition and evidence of past abuse, including scarring and bruises. Lawrence is being held on $5 million bond and could face life in prison if convicted.

CAHOKIA – Archaeologists are hoping to turn up detailed clues about the interaction between Native Americans and European settlers in Cahokia at a site in southwest Illinois. The researchers have been excavating an area around the old Holy Family log church. European missionaries established a base there in the early 1700s in the middle of a village home to the Tamaroa and Cahokia tribes. Researchers want to learn more about the generation of interaction that took place between the different cultures, the Belleville News-Democrat reported. There are relatively few places to find good evidence of such early interaction, archaeologists said. They used a 1735 map of the village drawn by one of the missionaries as a guide to know where to dig. By Wednesday, the dig team had turned up evidence of the European settlement,

Despite demands, Syria no-fly zone a no-go for US By BRADLEY KLAPPER The Associated Press WASHINGTON – The Obama administration is boxed in by its promise to limit U.S. military engagement against Islamic State extremists, making it tough to agree to Turkey’s condition for joining the fight in neighboring Syria. Turkey and other U.S. allies want the U.S. to create a no-fly zone inside Syrian territory. Doing so would mean embracing one of two options President Barack Obama has long resisted: cooperating with Syrian President Bashar Assad’s government or taking out its air defenses, action tantamount to war. Airstrikes alone might not prevent Islamic militants from carrying out a massacre at a Kurdish border town, but for now the U.S. isn’t steering a new course in its expanded, one-month counterterrorism effort in Iraq and Syria. Demands are rising for the creation of a secure buffer on the Syrian side of its frontier with Turkey as the U.S. and its coalition members plead with
the Turks to prevent the fall of Kobani, where the United Nations is warning of mass casualties. A “safe zone” would require Americans and their partners to protect ground territory and patrol the skies, meaning it would have to enforce a no-fly area. Turkey, an American NATO ally, is demanding such a step for a variety of reasons. A buffer might stem the flow of refugees into Turkish territory. It also could provide Syrian opposition fighters with a staging ground for their rebellion to oust Assad – something that Turkey wants to see happen. The U.S., wary of the implications, wants the focus to remain on defeating Islamic State militants who’ve captured large areas of northern Syria and Iraq. Yet some of America’s closest partners and Obama’s fiercest foreign policy critics at home are sympathetic to Turkey’s request. France issued a statement this week announcing its support. The Republican head of the House Foreign Affairs Committee believes Arab countries would shoulder the
load. Even Secretary of State John Kerry is describing a nofly zone as worth examining. Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel has shown little enthusiasm for the idea. American leaders are open to discussing a safe zone, he said this week, but creating one isn’t “actively being considered.” “When it comes to the socalled buffer zone, no-fly zone, they’ve proposed these for some time,” State Department spokeswoman Marie Harf said Friday. “We are not considering the implementation of this option at this time.” For the U.S. military, creating a protected corridor in Syria safe from the Islamic State group’s ground attacks and Syria’s air force raises obvious red flags. Gen. Martin Dempsey, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, has estimated the endeavor would require hundreds of U.S. aircraft and cost as much as $1 billion a month to maintain, with no assurance of a change in battlefield momentum toward ending the Syrian civil war. That means U.S. enforcement could become open-ended.

said. This fall, Americans for Prosperity is campaigning against a sales tax increase in South Carolina’s Greenville County, as well as trying to elect conservatives to office. Unlike what it has done for most of this year, the group now is engaging in explicitly political messages for the campaign’s final weeks. Potential presidential contenders have taken notice. GOP Sens. Rand Paul of Kentucky and Ted Cruz of Texas spoke at the group’s annual summit in August. Sen. Marco Rubio, R-Florida, headlined the Koch brothers’ seminar for major conservative donors this year. Americans for Prosperity sprung up in 2004 but has gained heft during the past two election cycles. Its budget has grown from less than $3 million in 2004 to more than $130 million for the 2012 election cycle. In many places, the group has more trained and paid operatives than the traditional political parties have. Nowhere is this more obvious than Florida, where the group has 10 offices, its single largest field operation.
Activist’s Nobel Prize highlights child labor in India By INDRAJIT SINGH and MUNEEZA NAQVI The Associated Press PATNA, India – When the Nobel Committee announced that Indian children’s rights activist Kailash Satyarthi had won the Peace Prize, a skinny 13-year-old boy was running around serving cups of milky tea to customers at a tiny tea stall in eastern India. By law, Raja Manjhi should not be working at all. But, like millions of other children across India, he has been forced out of school and into a job to help his impoverished family. Despite the country’s rapid economic growth, child labor remains widespread in India, where an estimated 13 million children work, with laws meant to keep kids in school and out of the workplace routinely flouted. Satyarthi, 60, who won the Peace Prize on Friday along
with 17-year-old Pakistani Malala Yousafzai, accepts that “a lot of work still remains” before children like Raja no longer have to work. Raja dropped out of school in second grade, when he was handed over to the owner of a tea stall in the eastern city of Patna to pay off his father’s $80 debt. The money was needed because Raja’s mother was sick. He has no idea what a Nobel Prize means. And he has no idea when his father’s debt will be repaid so he can go back to his village. Across India, children – some as young as 5 or 6 – end up working in all sorts of jobs. Many, like Raja, are in bonded labor, bound to their employers in exchange for a loan and unable to leave while in debt, which can last forever. Others, like 13-year-old Srabani Das, need money so their impoverished families can eat. Srabani, still a child her-
self, is a babysitter for a middle-class family’s 1-year-old girl in the eastern city of Kolkata. It’s a job she has had for a year and which pays only about $13 a month, which she sends home to her family of poor farm laborers. Srabani lives with her employers, and has no fixed work days or time off. Srabani has heard of the Nobel Prize, thanks to receiving a bit more of an education than Raja after studying up to the sixth grade. She was happy that an Indian had won the award, but added, “It won’t change my life.” For more than three decades, Satyarthi and the organization that he founded, Bachpan Bachao Andolan, or Save the Children Movement, has worked to rescue children like Raja and create awareness to keep others like Srabani in school. In 2006, India banned the hiring of children younger
than age 14 as servants in homes or as full-time workers in restaurants, tea shops, hotels or spas, mandating that they must remain in school. But such laws can be nearly impossible to enforce. It’s not unusual to find girls as young as Srabani, and sometimes younger, taking care of an infant for a middle-class family. Across the country, they are found in upscale shopping malls and fancy restaurants, entertaining children while the parents shop or dine. In return, they earn a pittance, as well as food and a place to sleep, which is usually in the family’s living room or on the kitchen floor. For the children themselves, the issue is not as clearcut as many outside India would think. They come from bitterly poor families, and in many cases are their families’ sole breadwinners. Rohit Kumar came to the northern Indian city of Luc-
know two years ago, when he was only 11. His father worked at a construction site, while he worked at roadside food stalls. His father went back to their village last year, but Rohit stayed behind to work at a tea stall, where he works up to 15 hours a day washing utensils and serving customers. “I like this job,” he said, adding that it fetches him two meals a day and about $13 a month, more money than he has ever had in his life. But Rohit does not go to school and gets sad when he watches other children play cricket on the streets or in playgrounds. “I want to play cricket,” Rohit said. “I have seen how children play this game, but I do not have enough time.” And what of the law that makes his job illegal? “I serve tea at the local police station. All the cops know me,” he said. “So who will enforce the law?”

MIAMI – Over scrambled eggs and croquettes, Andres Malave gave a last-minute pep talk to about a dozen volunteers in a Cuban restaurant before they left to meet voters. “Don’t just deliver a message,” he said before beginning his own 3½-hour shift knocking on doors. “Try to get them engaged.” It’s a strategy playing out in New England diners, Midwest truck stops and West Coast cafes: Conservative organizers train and send out thousands of volunteers holding an iPad and an interest in helping fellow activists shift America’s politics to the right. They are the backbone of Americans for Prosperity, the flagship organization of the political network backed by industrialist billionaires Charles and David Koch. While the group’s spending in Senate races has attracted national attention, it’s these less noticed field efforts that could have greater impact and help reshape the Republican
islative victories. The group scuttled efforts to raise taxes to build a downtown campus for the well-regarded zoo in Columbus, Ohio, and derailed plans in Florida’s Legislature to subsidize improvements to the Miami Dolphins’ football stadium. It helped fend off a recall effort against Gov. Scott Walker, R-Wisconsin, and pushed pro-business workplace laws in Michigan and Indiana. It didn’t shy away from going after traditional allies, as was the case when Gov. Rick Scott, R-Florida, briefly considered expanding Medicaid, a core component of Obama’s health care law. Americans for Prosperity mobilized supporters, the Republican-led Legislature quickly rejected the idea and Scott dropped his proposal. Tim Phillips, the group’s president, said Americans for Prosperity had helped usher in “a once-in-a-generation renaissance for economic freedom policies,” and was poised to keep financial issues prominent in 2016. “For the first time, we have the infrastructure on our side to sustain these policy battles,” he

Worried capital sees Islamic State militants pushing in By VIVIAN SALAMA The Associated Press BAGHDAD – On the western edge of Iraq’s capital, Islamic State group militants battle government forces and exchange mortar fire, only adding to the sense of siege in Baghdad despite airstrikes by a U.S.-led coalition. Yet military experts say the Sunni militants of the Islamic State group, who now control a large territory along the border that Iraq and Syria share, won’t be able to fight through both government forces and Shiite militias now massed around the capital. It does, however, put them in a position to wreak havoc in Iraq’s biggest city, with its suicide attacks and other assaults further eroding confidence in Iraq’s nascent federal government and its troops, whose soldiers already fled the Islamic State group’s initial lightning advance in June. “It’s not plausible at this point to envision ISIL taking control of Baghdad, but they can make Baghdad so miserable that it would threaten the legitimacy of the central government,” said Richard Brennan, an Iraq expert with RAND Corporation and former Department of Defense policymaker, using an acronym for the Islamic State
group. The siege fears in Baghdad stem from recent gains made by the Islamic State group in the so-called Baghdad Belt – the final stretch between Anbar province, where the group gained ground in Janaury, and Baghdad. The group has had a presence in the Baghdad Belt since spring, Iraqi officials say, but recent advances have sparked new worries. Last week, Islamic State group fighters seized the towns of Hit and neighboring Kubaisa, sending Iraqi soldiers fleeing and leaving a nearby military base with its stockpile of weapons at risk of capture. The U.S.-led coalition recently launched two airstrikes northwest of Hit, U.S. Central Command said Saturday. Perhaps most worrying, Islamic State group fighters now battle Iraqi forces in Abu Ghraib, the town home to the infamous prison of the same name that’s only 18 miles (29 kilometers) from the Green Zone, the fortified international zone protecting Baghdad-based embassies and government office. A senior military official in Anbar told The Associated Press on Saturday that government helicopters fire on targets daily in Abu Ghraib, though the town remains in the hands of security forces.

It’s easy to get enthusiastic for Globus Medical Dear Mr. Berko: My wife, who has had a bad back for 12 years, finally had back surgery. The doctor, who is a close friend, used a product made by a company called Globus Medical that he discovered several years ago. I won’t bore you with the details, but in a nutshell, he says that the Globus implants are “engineered smarter” than the implants used in the past. He owns the stock and said it’s a small company that he thinks will grow more quickly than its competition. I would like to buy 1,000 shares, and I can afford the risk, which is a question I know you would ask. So what can you tell me about Globus, and would you recommend it? – RK, Moline Dear RK: The engineers with nerd degrees at Globus Medical (GMED-$19.90) design, manufacture and sell implants for cervical, thoracic, lumbar and sacral spinal disorders. And GMED’s engineers sold $451 million worth of these little thingamajigs and related disposables to hospitals in the U.S. and overseas. The GMED geniuses have engineered 118 impressive and unique products for a broad array of spinal pathologies, anatomies and surgical approaches. I had
TAKING STOCK Malcolm Berko six of their extra-huge titanium screws plus two of their lateral fusion devices secured flawlessly to my lumbar spine. And after nine years, they’re working fine as wine and a frog’s hair. Globus’ engineers have developed new biomaterials, interventional pain management solutions and treatments for vertebral compression. The GMED men have also designed new motion preservation technologies, total disk replacements, interspinous spacer products, artificial disks and a facet replacement system for treatment of spinal stenosis. This “Star Trek” technology, inconceivable 20 years ago, is now becoming as common as cotton, and GMED engineers are acknowledged leaders in the race to give Americans (especially congressmen) stronger spines. And I’d be a buyer of this stock, which, compared with the average of its competition (Stryker, Medtronic, St. Jude Medical, Zimmer Holdings), has significantly higher return
on assets (14.9 percent versus 5.8 percent), a superior return on equity (17.5 percent versus 10.7 percent), twice the operating margins (27.8 percent versus 14.5 percent), better three-year average revenue growth (14.7 percent versus 1.9 percent) and superb net profit margins (18.5 percent versus 10.6 percent), and it trades at 21 times earnings, versus 32 times earnings, and has zero debt. I know it’s not so easy to get excited about a company that makes parts for backs and won’t pass out free samples or advertise its products on Super Bowl commercials or in Playboy or exhibit them on TV’s innumerous medical examiner programs. However, GMED could get some mileage signing a few athletes (Tiger Woods, Fred Couples, Don Mattingly and Larry Bird) to promote its products. Biomet, recently merged into Zimmer (ZMH$103), hired Olympic gymnast Mary Lou Retton to endorse its Oxford partial knee, and Merck considered hiring George Clooney and Sean Connery to promote Viagra. This year, GMED expects revenues of $464 million and earnings of 91 cents a share as it peddles thousands of those
small implants, most of which are no bigger or heavier than a key fob. The consensus of a dozen analysts projects 2015 revenues to be $505 million and earnings to be $1.02 on GMED’s 95 million shares. And two back surgeons I know, each of whom used a GMED prosthesis for the first time this summer, are enthusiastic about the company’s products and research. One of these young men volunteered that he was so impressed that he bought the stock. Now, it’s been my experience that whenever a doc buys a stock, it usually heads south. These guys are notoriously bad investors. However, after talking about this with a couple of doctors, I’m impressed enough to recommend the stock.
And it seems Wellington Fund, Oppenheimer, BlackRock, Vanguard and Invesco are also impressed. These funds own multimillion-share blocks, and most of their gurus think GMED could trade between $25 and $28 next year. Please note that David Davidar, a co-founder of the company, owns 794,000 shares. However, GMED is small beer in this game of back parts, and I would not be a surprised if one of its bigger brethren found GMED’s technology attractive enough to add it to its portfolio. • Please address your financial questions to Malcolm Berko, P.O.

OUR VIEW
We endorse Rauner for Illinois governor 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
THE FIRST AMENDMENT
has been a complete failure. 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 said 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.
Tackling ebola: hype, fear vs. hope, change When we were kids, there were all kinds of scary shows and movies to give us chills and thrills, prompting us to look for goblins and boogeymen under the bed and in the closet. (Anyone remember Alfred Hitchcock?) Halloween was a time to put on the masks of the monsters, a way of “un-scaring” ourselves, so to speak. I guess that’s why elections are held so close to the day we confront our ghosts and ghouls. One thing we’re supposed to learn as we become adults, though, is the difference between things we should fear and the apparitions of hype. Moving out of politics to public health for a moment, let’s ask, should we panic about Ebola? What is the source of our fears? Is our fear based on severity and rate of infection? According to the World Health Organization, Ebola’s rate of infection is, on average, 2 (one person infects two). Not an effective transmitter, but deadly once there’s an infection. The rates of infection for mumps and measles are 10 and 18, respectively. So you should be more concerned about getting your children
VIEWS Donna Brazile vaccinated for mumps and measles – you can directly control that. And, of course, we should educate ourselves about how Ebola is transmitted, what our public health organizations are doing (with far too few resources – thanks, Congress) to combat it, and what precautions we should take. But panic? Drunk drivers, those who text and drive, and guns in schools should cause more alarm. So why is the media hitting the scream machine button? Because the media, like the monster in a sci-fi horror flick, feed off our fear and panic. It’s the ratings, stupid! How tragic. Of course the world is a dangerous place. Dangers near and far are real. But it’s the faraway dangers that dominate the headlines and keep us in a state of heightened fright.
See BRAZILE, page 42

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR GIVE TO THOSE IN NEED To the Editor: My name is Steve Sherwood. I am a homeless street minister in Joliet and I have been in The Herald-News numerous times. Many people know me and like the message and work I do and support me, although some don’t. A nice couple recently gave me a raincoat which was just large enough to fit me and my dog, Misty. I was and am appreciative for it. Two people have told me the same couple put up a Facebook page asking for stuff to be donated. I have never asked anything from anyone, yet numerous people have helped me. I am grateful for each of them. I couldn’t do all of the things I’ve done without any of it. A special thanks go out to them. I have been doing this work, homeless going on 14 years. I am 52 and have some health issues. I have a hard time pushing my bike with the things I have to survive on them. This couple’s intentions are highly honorable. I still help people when I can and will sacrifice whatever I have in emergency situations. This letter is not about me or about the homeless. They say 1 in 5 children in this country are food insufficient. The so-called middle class is shrinking and dropping down to the poverty line. Many struggle to pay their bills and have
to make tough decisions. The needs are great and workers are few. I ask anyone with anything to donate to local charities. The need is there throughout America. I challenge every minister to do what they can and to challenge their people. The day will come when we all stand before the Lord. He will say, “When I was thirsty, did you give me drink? When I was hungry, did you feed? When I was widow, did you visit? When I was sick, did you visit?” Many will ask, “When did we see you this way?” He will say, “to the least you’ve done these things, you’ve done them unto me.” I preach the good news, that God is love and spirit. Jesus loves regardless. Look at the cross, Jesus said, Father forgive them. Living in his light, Holy Ghost ministries, Minister Steve Sherwood WE NEED BETTER POLITICIANS To the Editor: President Barack Obama is trying to ruin the United States. If you want proof, look at the Texas border. We need the National Guard on the border, but Obama won’t deploy them even though there is a good chance ISIS, along with kids and other criminals, are illegally crossing into our country.
Further proof: A. Fast and furious investigations (border agent killed), nothing done. B. IRS spying on citizens, no one held responsible. C. Benghazi investigation, our ambassador, the Navy Seals and C.I.A. security contractor killed. No one yet convicted. D. Trading Bowe Bergdahl for four terrorists. E. Obama talking the USA down to other countries who hate us, plus giving millions of dollars to these countries. Remember he promised a new era of transparency. What transparency? Obama has lied to the American people from day one. He also is also backing the Palestinians, led by Hamas terrorists, over the Israeli in the Gaza War. Israel is one of our best allies. U.S. Sen. Dick Durbin, D-Illinois, supports Obama. Durbin is a politician we need to vote out of office in November. Why is our country going down? Because we keep voting these same politicians back into office every election. Some politicians will say and do anything to get elected. Look at Hillary Clinton: She threw President Obama under the bus so she can run for president in 2016. Are we to forget that she is part of the Benghazi investigation? Future politicians need to listen to the people. We are their boss. We

We need to vote for the best person.
Leave fake fears and virtual frights to a master like Stephen King • BRAZILE Continued from page 39 After all, it seems like the threats of terrorism, war and epidemics are everywhere. Clearly, the White House should dismantle a few federal agencies and set up a crisis management operation to deal with the daily dosage of “alarms.” This is serious stuff, folks. But it’s been that way since the dawn of civilization. People in ancient Mesopotamia dealt with the same sorts of challenges that people in today’s Middle East deal with – and they did so with far fewer technological, medical and scientific resources. What they didn’t have to deal with was a 24-hour news cycle that sucked their energy and attention and hyped the fear and phobia. They had kings and satraps directing
what they did, not conglomerates and corporatists controlling what they thought. There were cuneiform tablets, but as far as we know, no cuneiform tabloids. And there was certainly no cable news or Internet to put the problems of all the other ancient civilizations in their kitchens. Ironically, one of the reasons we’ve survived the litany of terror, war and disease since ancient times is because of the technology – the same technology that’s given us the communications infrastructure that allows the fear-mongers and mad scientists of the media to hype, panic, scare and confuse. Technology – from the wheel to fire to the combustible engine to computers and beyond – is a tool. Tools can be used for good or evil, to cure diseases or pollute the air and water, to build bridges or to isolate communities.
So when our news media resemble a Wes Craven movie, we have to ask, “Why? Who benefits?” Fear is profitable. Look how much the horror and low-budget slasher movies make. Look at Dean Koontz’s book sales. But the media know that stories of hope and change, stories of compassion and our shared humanity also sell as much as, if not more than, the doom-and-gloom, be-afraid cliches. So if the media prefer hype and fear beyond ratings or profits, then why? Who benefits? Those who themselves fear hope and change and progress. But who would fear hope and change and progress? Those who might lose power or influence and those who would have to step up and lead versus whining and overhyping for short-term partisan gain. Yes, I’m talking about
politicians, and their wealthy, well-connected donors. You know them. They are the privileged who want to hoard privilege, deplete resources and exploit people. I’m talking about those whose motto when it comes to Obama administration policies or Democrats who could improve the lives of children, students, the poor or even the working class, is: “Whatever it is, I’m against it.” Like the politicians who condemned President Obama for appointing policy czars and now demand one for Ebola response. (Hint: Don’t slash the budget for public health and approve the nominated surgeon general.). Like those who praised former Gov. Mitt Romney in 2012 for saying he’d get unemployment below 6 percent by 2016, and condemn Obama for getting it to 5.9 percent by 2014. Like House Speaker John Boeh-
ner’s admission that the GOP has no jobs plan. Like those who won’t raise corporate taxes, but shriek in horror at raising the minimum wage. Let’s face it – it’s shameless. All of it. Too bad we cannot all collectively shout back “Boo!” Let’s leave the fake fears and virtual frights to a master like Stephen King. Let’s remain hopeful, not mean or fearful, and believe that we can handle all these crises. And yes, while we are at it, let’s remember that we are resilient. Halloween will soon be here and gone. Let’s enjoy “trick or treat” the way it was meant to be. • Donna Brazile is a senior Democratic strategist, a political commentator and contributor to CNN and ABC News, and a contributing columnist to Ms. Magazine and O, the Oprah Magazine.

AREA SCOREBOARD
dgoss@shawmedia.com LA GRANGE PARK – Nazareth Academy took control of the East Suburban Catholic Conference race with Saturday afternoon’s thrilling 24-21 victory over Joliet Catholic. But the disappointment of the moment can become a positive for the Hilltoppers. That will be determined beginning Monday at practice. “Everything that happened is fixable,” said JCA coach Dan Sharp. “The main concern is our health. I was worried about their size, with how physical they were.” Safety Brandon Bolek, the leader in the JCA secondary, exited early on with an injury and was transported to a hospital to be checked. Linebacker Brad Krisch dislocated a finger but returned a few plays later with a 12-yard sack that helped spoil a Roadrunners’ drive. Krisch, who had a big game, quarterback Cade Earl and cornerback Luke Phelan were among the handful of Hilltoppers receiving medical attention afterward. Despite all of that and the prowess of Nazareth (7-0, 5-0), JCA (5-2, 4-1) was in position to tie and send the battle into overtime. However, Nazareth’s Decxavier Kelly-Martin got a hand on Brian Bravo’s 42-yard field-goal attempt with 13 seconds left to effectively end it. Bravo had been 6 for 6 this sea-

Their deep route hurt us early, and we had some tackling issues that hurt. Penalties hurt us. We can’t make those crucial penalties
that gave them life.” Nazareth, featuring one of the state’s most explosive attacks, totaled 482 yards of offense to the Hilltoppers’ 294. The Roadrunners were penalized 15 times for 127 yards, JCA eight for 76. But seven calls against the Hilltoppers came in the second half after they took a 14-7 lead into the break. Special teams loomed large. Bravo had a solid game punting, but Nazareth’s Julian Love returned a punt 73 yards to the JCA 2 early in the fourth quar-
ter. A penalty late on the return moved the ball back to the 23, and Nazareth went ahead, 1714, on Michael Hillsman’s 36yard field goal. However, Harold Davis, who had caught a 24-yard TD strike from Earl on a deep slant late in the second quarter to put JCA ahead 14-7, took the ensuing kickoff, saw a hole up the middle and raced 99 yards for a touchdown and a 21-17 lead. The Roadrunners rebounded two possessions later, marching 71 yards in eight
plays behind the passing of Jonah Beauduy (11 of 20 for 221 yards) to retake the lead, 24-21, with 3:36 to go. That set the stage for JCA’s shot at tying or winning. In that drive, Michael Johnson caught three passes for 44 yards from Earl, who also scrambled 5 yards for a first down and threw a pass to fullback Drew Voss, who took it to the Nazareth 2. However, it was Earl’s second pass on the play, which is illegal and a penalty, as his initial pass was batted back into his arms. “I doubt Cade even knew that rule,” Sharp said.
FOOTBALL: OSWEGO 24, PLAINFIELD EAST 21
Oswego escapes Plainfield East upset bid By LARRY LINDHOLM Shaw Media Correspondent PLAINFIELD – Plainfield East took its best shot at ending Oswego’s domination in the Southwest Prairie Conference, but came up short Friday night. Oswego scored on Carter Turnquist’s 27-yard pass to Zach West with 2:41 left to secure a 24-21 victory over East, the Panthers’ 26th straight SPC victory over a span of
four seasons. The decisive TD pass came on the next play after Turnquist and West hooked up on an 11-yard pass on fourth down to keep the drive alive. “Coming into the game, we knew Oswego could run,” East coach Mike Romeli said. “We wanted to contain them in their running and make them pass.” East (5-2, 3-2) took a 21-17 lead with 5:44 left when Cole Kotopka threw an 18-yard
scoring pass to Feras Hleihel. Wynston Wright’s punt to the 1-yard line pinned in Oswego (6-1, 5-0) and allowed the Bengals’ defense to do its thing. East gained possession after a Panthers’ punt on the 35yard line and drove it in from there. Wright earlier launched a 50-yard punt. “Wynston is a great asset to the team with his punting,” Romeli said. “He gives us the opportunity to play defense
on a long field.” The Bengals stayed with Oswego throughout. The Panthers scored first, but East knotted it at 7 on Jake Mayon’s 1-yard run late in the first quarter. Jarvis Carter’s fumble recovery led to the score. Oswego went ahead, 9-7, on a safety, but Donte Hartsfield’s interception at the Panthers’ 29 gave East the ball back. Mayon turned a short pass
from Kotopka into a 21-yard play to the 8, and Mayon scored from the 4 for a 14-9 lead. Oswego went back ahead, 17-14, late in the third quarter when West caught a 67-yard TD pass from Turnquist. “What I am most proud of tonight is the way our team never put their heads down when they were behind,” Romeli said. “They played with determination and would not give up.”

LINCOLN-WAY WEST 35, LINCOLN-WAY NORTH 24
Fourth quarter golden for West By DICK GOSS dgoss@shawmedia.com NEW LENOX – Four turnovers, three in the first half. A holding penalty that erased Adam Knerr’s 48-yard run, which would have gotten Lincoln-Way West’s offense out of a deep hole. A kickoff return man falling down at the Warriors’ 4-yard line. A fourth-down measurement at the Lincoln-Way North 12 late in the first half that required multiple officials and enough time to eat a sandwich before the decision was rendered. It went against West and nixed an opportunity to get back within 10 points at halftime. However, the Warriors flipped the switch and was better in the second half. They scored four fourth-quarter touchdowns to erase a 24-7 deficit and beat SouthWest Suburban Red rival North, 35-24, on Friday night. Yes, the Phoenix, hardly the Little Sisters of the Poor. North (6-1, 4-1) came in undefeated and leading the conference. West (6-1, 4-1) was coming off a 17-6 loss last week at Bradley. “We were struggling in the first half on offense,” said Warriors receiver Chase Starcevich, who caught
nine passes from sophomore quarterback Connor Lohman for 104 yards. “We shot ourselves in the foot. We were determined to do better in the second half.” “We had to stay cool and calm,” Lohman said. “We were too nervous the first half. The second half we were cool and collected.” Proving the effect field position and turnovers can have on a game, West totaled 257 of its 417 yards of offense in the first half while North had 157 at that point. “We had no problems moving the ball the first half, but the turnovers were killing us,” West coach Dave Ernst said. In the second half, West’s defense, led by the tackle who is so difficult to block, Nick Trolian, limited North’s potent offense to 71 yards. The Phoenix’s offense was affected by the loss of tailback Jaylin Branch to a head injury late in the first half and their offense was not the same after that. “That changed the game,” Ernst said. “We were able to take a guy out of the box to get some help covering No. 5 (North receiver Kyle Ostrowski).” West’s Gabe Montalvo scored on
a 1-yard run on the first play of the fourth quarter, capping a 66-yard drive, and things were beginning to get interesting. Nate Paniak’s 18-yard punt return to the North 22 set up Lohman’s 17yard touchdown pass to Joe Shirley, making it 24-21 with 8:12 left. Lohman finished 16 of 27 for 215 yards, and Shirley caught six for 83. Two Warriors’ possessions later, Montalvo ran a draw play 28 yards while breaking several tackles for the go-ahead touchdown with 2:51 left. Paniak iced it when he caught a fumble in mid-air after a North completion and took it 55 yards to account for the final score. “I couldn’t do it without our O-line and wide receivers blocking,” Montalvo, who rushed for 130 yards in 28 carries, said of his game-winning run. “I saw a seam. I wasn’t thinking touchdown, but once I got to about the 5, I was trying as hard as I can.” “We talked before the game that this was one of those signature moments,” Ernst said. “These guys are resilient. They believe. They’re fighters. I’m proud to have my name on the roster with theirs.” North scored in the final minute to win the sophomore game, 18-14.

NEW LENOX – Thornton coach Bill Mosel’s late fourth-quarter gamble paid off as his Wildcats edged Lincoln-Way Central, 32-29, on Friday in SouthWest Suburban Conference Red action. The Wildcats trailed the Knights, 2926, with less than two minutes to play and faced fourth-and-4 at the Central 9-yardline. Instead of having Christian Garcia kick a potential game-tying 26-yard field goal, Mosel went for it. Thornton quarterback Michael Fuller found receiver Master Powell in the back of the end zone for a touchdown to givethe Wildcats the three-point lead with 1:31 left. “We talked to the kicker and he didn’t like the angle,” Mosel said. “He said ‘I can make it from that distance, but I don’t like the angle.’ Instead of putting the kid in a bad situation, we went for it. The quarterback threw a great ball which they did a great job of contesting.” The Knights (4-3, 3-2) started at their 47 after the score. Two completions by senior quarterback Connor Campbell moved Central to the Wildcats’ 40. Campbell, who finished 21 of 31 for 300 yards passing and two touchdowns, made his only mistake on the next play. Thornton’s pass rush forced Campbell out of the pocket. He rolled to his right and threw, but Wildcats’ linebacker Preston Mays intercepted. Thornton ran out the clock. The Knights rallied to take their lead earlier in the fourth quarter. Trailing 2621, Central marched 76 yards in nine plays behind Campbell’s arm. He completed four passes on the drive, including a 29-yarder to receiver Jared Redder. Sean Studer scored his second touchdown on a 3-yard run to make it 29-26 with 8:50 left. Central held the Wildcats (4-3, 3-2) on their next series, and the Wildcats’ defense did the same to Central. Thornton set up at its 47 to begin its game-winning drive. “We did some good things, but we didn’t control the line of scrimmage,” Knights coach Hud Venerable said. “Their speed was definitely a factor. It seemed like they got outside with regularity on us defensively. “We put 56 points on the board the last two weeks and have two three-point losses to show for it [Lincoln-Way North beat Central 30-27 in Week 6]. We have to figure out what we’re doing defensively and get back on course here. It’s asking a lot of your offense to come out and score in the 30s to win games.”

By CURT HERRON cherron@shawmedia.com JOLIET – There was a playoff-like atmosphere in front of a large and enthusiastic crowd at Klootwyk Field on Friday, and with good reason. Joliet West, hosting its first night game since 1992, hoped to move a step closer to its initial postseason trip since its program was restarted when it met Stagg. Although the Tigers moved the ball well in the first half, they led, 14-7, at the break. West removed all doubts by outscoring the Chargers, 28-0, in the last two quarters to roll to a 42-7 SouthWest Suburban Blue win. “It was big for us to get the confidence that we can score and finish in the second half,” Tigers coach Jason Aubry said. “Hopefully we can keep playing like we did in the second half. I’m very proud of how our defense played against their triple-option look. And I have to give a shout out to our student section, ‘the Wild West,’ since they were phenomenal.” Alex Tibble (15 for 29 for 237 yards passing, 15 carries for 58 yards rushing) threw three touchdowns and ran for two more for the Tigers (4-3, 2-3), who play at Joliet Central on Saturday and at Lockport in the regular-season finale. “We came out firing in the first half in our last two games but then just died in the second half and tonight it was kind of the opposite,” Tibble said. “We put some points up in the second half and it was nice to get out with the

Joliet West’s Xavier Smith (88) scores a touchdown during the Tigers’ 42-7 win Friday over Stagg in Joliet. ‘W.’ ” Collin Brown (13 yards), Xavier Smith (57 yards) and Craig Beebe (4 yards) caught touchdown passes from Tibble, who scored on a pair of 1-yard runs, while Mitch Dolak added a 21yard run for West’s final score.
Brenton Thompson ran 15 times for 91 yards and had three catches for 36 yards. Kyle Henderson caught four passes for 79 yards and Evan French had three receptions for 42 yards for West, which had 516 yards of offense, includ-
ing 279 on the ground behind the line of Ray Betancourt, Ethan Bohanek, Rick Dove, Scotty Blankenship and Jarrale Daniels. “It felt great to be able to experience a Friday night football game since we’ve been looking forward to it for years,” Henderson said. “It was amazing atmosphere and great to look in the stands at all of the people. And it was great to be able to finish strong to get the win.” After allowing the Chargers (3-4, 1-4) to run for 101 yards in the first quarter and claim 175 total at the half, West’s defense gave up 69 yards after the break. “This was our first night home game so I was real hyped and thinking about this all day,” Meekah Ben-Israel said. “Our coach told us to think about one number, 61, which is how many points they scored on us last year. I think we’ll finish strong in our next two games.” After Joe Van Nieuwenhuyse’s 24yard scoring run late in the first quarter to tie the game at 7, the Tigers – whose leading tacklers included Paul Blackmon, Jacob Pullen, John Anderson, Trae Pierce and Noah Dillon – forced five punts and stopped Stagg on downs. “In the last few games we’ve played phenomenal in the first half and then lost it but we closed very well today,” said Collin Talkie, who had an interception. “Everybody was ready for this Friday night game. We’ve all been waiting for this game and it was amazing.”
FOOTBALL: PROVIDENCE 56, BISHOP McNAMARA 13
Providence rebounds to beat Bishop McNamara By SCOTT EHLING Shaw Media Correspondent NEW LENOX – After last week’s last-second loss to Loyola, Providence coach Mark Coglianese wanted to make sure his Celtics rebounded and did not have any lingering effects. The Celtics bounced back as senior quarterback Justin Hunniford (17 of 26, 298 yards) threw five touchdowns and ran for another score, while senior wideout Miles Boykin (six catches, 87 yards) caught three touchdown passes as Providence defeated Bishop McNamara, 56-13, in a Chica-
go Catholic League crossover game Friday. “We wanted to come out and improve over last week,” Coglianese said. “We wanted to learn from our mistakes and come out and play well, which I think we did.” Hunniford has thrown for 24 touchdowns in seven games, with Boykin catching 16 and inching closer to the Providence all-time touchdown record of 19. The Celtics also had contributions from senior wideout Mike Beller (six catches, 77 yards, one touchdown) and sophomore running back Richie Warfield (five rush-
es, 13 yards, two catches, 52 yards, one touchdown). Providence (6-1) went three-and-out before finding the end zone on its second possession as Boykin caught an 11-yard touchdown pass from Hunniford. “We were a bit rusty early, but things started clicking and as the game went on, we took what their defense gave us and turned a lot of the underneath plays into big plays,” Hunniford said. On the first play of the second quarter, Hunniford scrambled for a 15-yard touchdown to increase Providence’s lead to 14-0. Jack
Pell then picked off his first of two interceptions to set up the Celtics deep inside Irish territory. Providence’s defense finished with three interceptions and a fumble recovery for a touchdown in the end zone by senior linebacker Dan Miller. “Turnovers are always big in a game,” Coglianese said. “Our DBs had a good week of practice and we’re glad to see the defense get some turnovers because that is a good sign for down the road.” “Our defense played really well and we’re confident in whoever is at corner that they will do the job,” Miller said.
Three plays after Pell’s interception, Hunniford found Boykin in the corner of the end zone for a 10-yard touchdown and a 21-0 lead with 10:26 left before halftime. “It’s not automatic that we’re going to throw to Miles if it is one-on-one coverage, but I’m OK with us taking that shot every time,” Coglianese said. Bishop McNamara (4-3) went three-and-out on their next possession and two plays later, Boykin struck again for his third touchdown, a 35-yarder for a 28-0 lead. The Providence sophomores won, 30-0.

LOCKPORT – Lockport put a full 48 minutes together Friday and came away with a 41-12 victory over Joliet Central in a SouthWest Suburban Blue matchup. The Porters (2-5, 2-3) scored 28 first-half points to take control at halftime. Porter quarterback Jeremy Quade rushed for 114 yards with two touchdowns and was 4 of 7 passing for 56 yards and two touchdowns. “Overall, we played a fundamentally sound game,” Porter coach Dan Starkey said. “We won the turnover battle and the battle of the rush. I’ll give Central credit, they came to play. We were focused and ran the ball well.” Senior running back Cameron Credit scored three touchdowns for the Porters and had 42 yards rushing on nine carries. Lockport scored on its first three possessions then blocked a punt, which was recovered in the end zone by Mike Zapotoczny for the touchdown with 2:56 to go before halftime. “That touchdown felt pretty amazing, but there were four of us in there and I just fell on the ball,” Zapotoczny said. Senior cornerback David Shelby, who was in on the punt block
and recovered a fumble, added, “We have a brotherhood and everything we do is for each other. That was our first special team touchdown this year and it was fun.” Central (0-7. 0-5) was led by running back Tommy Sherman, who had 79 yards on 22 carries and a touchdown. Steelmen quarterback Darius Sanders, a sophomore playing his first varsity game, had 63 yards on 14 carries and a touchdown. He also was 4 of 5 passing with 40 yards. Junior Alex Ruettiger had a 22yard catch on Central’s final touchdown drive. The Steelmen controlled the ball at times with their running attack and had a 13-play drive that ended with a fumble early in the second quarter. In the second half, their two scores came on nine plays and another 13-play drive. “I’m very proud of our guys, especially up front,” Central coach Brett Boyter said. “We brought Darius up from the sophomores to start at quarterback and he did a great job. We put together a package for him in his first game. “We have had a lot of injuries and with our numbers, it was a great effort by everyone. Braxton Conway did a great job until he got hurt late in the game.” Lockport won the sophomore game to improve to 5-2.

BOLINGBROOK – In a battle of top teams in Class 8A, No.12 Homewood-Flossmoor rallied past eighth-ranked Bolingbrook, 35-28, on Friday in a critical SouthWest Suburban Blue contest. The Vikings (5-2, 4-1) overcame a 14-0 first-quarter deficit to move into a second-place tie in the SWSC Blue. Vikings quarterback Bryce Gray threw for 281 yards and two touchdowns. Jared Sharp’s 34-yard reception from Gray was the game-winner with 6:11 left. Sharp caught six passes for 90 yards. Junior wide receiver
Kendric Pryor caught four of Gray’s passes for 140 yards, including an 81-yard bomb that put H-F up, 28-21, with nine minutes left. “We did a real good job on H-F’s top two receivers, James Sheehan and Devonte Harley-Hampton,” Bolingbrook coach John Ivlow said. “Unfortunately, that opened up Pryor and Sharp, who really killed us.” The Raiders (5-2, 4-1) jumped to the 14-point lead in the first quarter.

Plainfield S. holds off Minooka By ROB OESTERLE roestere@shawmedia.com JOLIET – In the annual Battle of Ridge Road between Southwest Prairie rivals Minooka and Plainfield South, the records generally can be thrown out the window. It’s usually a battle to the finish. Friday night’s game was no exception as South held off a late Minooka charge to beat the Indians, 27-19. “Coming in, we knew it would be a battle,” South coach Ken Bublitz said. “They have an outstanding running back [Nate Gunn] and their quarterback [John Carnagio] can hurt you. Plus, they are solid defensively. “Our guys just did a good job of finding a way to win.” Minooka (3-4, 2-3) began by giving Plainfield South (3-4, 3-2) a steady dose of Gunn as the senior running back had 18 carries for 76 yards in the first quarter. Gunn ran for a 7-yard touchdown on his last first-quarter carry to give Minooka a 6-0 lead. South’s defense stiffened after that, allowing Gunn just 56 yards on 13 carries in the last
three quarters. It didn’t take long for South to respond. The Cougars recovered a squib kick at their 45. A pass from Braden Lentini to Kyle Coleman gained 16 yards and a late hit tacked on 15 more. On third-and-4, Lentini faked a handoff and kept the ball himself, running up the middle for an 18-yard touchdown. Enrique Carbajal’s kick gave the Cougars a 7-6 lead. After forcing Minooka to punt, South took over at its 40. A 10-yard pass to Cristian Carrillo gave the Cougars a first down at the Minooka 44, and Lentini (22 carries, 104 yards) pulled off a carbon-copy of his earlier touchdown run, this time from 44 yards out for a 14-6 lead with 8:22 to go in the first half. Minooka went three-andout, but the defense stepped up with an interception by Blake Parzych at the South 38. Four runs by Gunn gained 27 yards before Victor Turpin took over and went the remaining 11 yards for a touchdown. The conversion pass was batted down and South led, 14-12. The Cougars drove into the
red zone, but Minooka’s Jack Sasso picked off a Lentini pass in the final minute of the half. Minooka received the second-half kickoff but fumbled on the first play from scrimmage. Moments later, Lentini connected with Cody Viertel for a 6-yard touchdown for the 21-12 lead. Lentini then hit Viertel on fourth-and-3 for a 5-yard touchdown, and Plainfield South claimed a 27-12 advantage. “You can’t turn the ball over the way we did to start the second half,” Minooka coach Paul Forsythe said. “Our defense played well, but we put them on some short fields and that didn’t help. “Still, we were right in it to the end, and we are still alive for the playoffs. Anything can happen in this conference. We control our own destiny. We just have to win our last two games.” Luke Brozovich intercepted a Lentini pass and returned it to the Plainfield South 9-yard line at the end of the third quarter. Quarterback John Carnagio scored on an 8-yard scramble and Eric Wienke’s kick made it 27-19.
PLAINFIELD – Most high school football teams who score 40 points in the first half would win by running the clock out in the second half. But that wasn’t the case Friday as Plainfield North overcame an early 40-7 deficit to stun Romeoville, 43-40, in a Southwest Prairie Conference shootout that went down to the wire. Quintin Hoosman gained 274 yards on 34 carries and scored six touchdowns for North (5-2, 4-1), which plays at Oswego on Friday in a showdown for first place in the SPC. In the first half, the Spartans (2-5, 2-3) looked like a team destined to climb out of their early season struggles and make a push for the playoffs. Romeoville’s junior quarterback Anthony Kitchens (20 of 36 passing for 351 yards) lit the scoreboard up by throwing five touchdown passes, while senior running back Kelvin Jones (15 carries for 144 yards) added a 80-yard score of his own. “What we wanted to do in the first half we were doing,” Romeoville’s coach Jeff Kuna said. “We were getting the ball into our playmakers’ hands and they were making the catches and getting the yards after the catch.” North had two touchdowns in the first half as Hoosman scored on runs of 19 and 61 yards, but the Tigers found themselves down, 4014, at halftime.
“We didn’t stop anyone,” North’s coach Tim Kane said. “We didn’t tackle, we were just completely awful. We knew we just had to settle down and start playing.” The momentum started to turn during the first drive of the second half, as Romeoville went three-and-out, and the Tigers put a long drive together with Hoosman scoring on an 8-yard touchdown run to make it 40-21. “The first half we just had low energy,” Hoosman said. “We were all kind of freaking out, but when we got into the locker room at halftime we made sure we came out in the second half with full energy.” The Spartans’ offensive struggles were apparent in the third and fourth quarter as they went three-and-out three times as the Tigers defense came alive. “We changed our scheme,” said Kane of the second-half defensive adjustments. “We changed a few things with our linebackers and made a couple personnel changes.” Hoosman continued to carry the Tigers on his back and scored on a 4-yard run to cap a run of 29 unanswered points to put North ahead, 43-40, with 5:08 left. Hoosman also reached the end zone on 5- and 6-yard runs. “He’s having a monster year,” Kane said. “Leading up to this year, I knew he was going to have a great year. He was injured all of last year and he has responded like a champion. He is having a really good year and he’s running the ball well for us.” North also won the sophomore game, 48-20.

AREA SPORTS SCHEDULE

By KAITLYN JASNICA kjasnica@shawmedia.com ROMEOVILLE – After its 3-0 loss to rival Indianapolis, Lewis University’s volleyball team lost sole possession for first place in the Great Lakes Valley Conference-East. Now, they share it with the team that beat them. In the first game, Lewis battled point-for-point against the Greyhounds. When Lynsey Hazelwood (nine kills) took a hard swing and tooled the block, Alexis Davito hit the ball hard cross court for the Flyers. “Today, as a whole, we lacked that fire to push through,” said Davito, who ended the night with 10 kills. “Indy did a very good job of picking up our balls, so finding a place to swing was a little difficult. We need to work on our first contact. They served us off the court. If we get our serve receive and first
ball contact down, we will be in-system and fine.” Serving played a big part in the first game. Trailing 2221, Lewis stepped up to serve and missed. After Morgan Cebula killed the ball off a slide, the Flyers missed their serve. Lewis lost the first game, 25-22 and the Greyhounds (14-3, 9-2) took the momentum into the next two games, winning 25-19, 25-12. “After you get that first game, sometimes you gain more confidence,” Flyers coach Lorelee Smith said. “They got more confidence, became more aggressive and more powerful. Things were going more their way and they got on a roll.” Lewis (10-6, 9-2) knew going into the match that its offense would be tested, and it was. In the second game, Kim Vertin hit a ball straight down within 10 feet. A Greyhound player stuck her hands up and somehow kept the play alive. Indi-
anapolis ended the night with 82 digs. Although the Greyhounds had 20 more digs as a team, Lewis’ Amy Choi led all players in digs with 25. Many times in the match, Choi threw her body out to reach for a ball hit to the left-back corner or a tip that was placed over the block more than 10 feet away from her. “Indy is one of our biggest rivals,” Choi said. “We knew that they were top of the conference in digs. One of our goals was to out-scrap them or to have better quality contact contacts than they did. If another team is very defensive-minded, you have to try and be more defensive-minded than they are.” The Greyhounds also finished the night with 47 kills total, 15 more than the Flyers. Indianapolis earned many kills by hitting balls off of the block and into an area that the Flyers’ defense could not reach.
Arielle Knafel ended with 11 kills and a .409 hitting percentage and Hailey Brown contributed 10 kills. “We knew it was coming,” Smith said. “It’s something that they are very good at and it’s something that we are not great at defending. We have a lot of teams that are similar to Indy coming up that have power and are aggressive. Earlier in the year, we had different teams that placed the ball. We have to get better very quickly and learn how to defend to that type of offense.” If Lewis plays well against other teams in the conference, it will be seeded high in the conference tournament and could get a second look at the Greyhounds. “We fought hard,” Smith said. “We did not play very well, but I honestly think that it was because Indy made us not play well, not because we didn’t show up. They kept fighting and stayed positive.”

JOLIET WEST 2, JOLIET CENTRAL 1 (SO)
Joliet West edges Joliet Central in shootout By CURT HERRON cherron@shawmedia.com JOLIET – While Joliet West’s soccer team has won twice as many matches as Joliet Central this year, things figured to be pretty close when the two squads met Saturday. That’s just what unfolded as the Tigers and Steelmen were even through 80 minutes of regulation and after a pair of 10-minute overtime periods. Even the penalties to determine a winner were tight, as the squads alternated successful kicks through the first four rounds before West finally prevailed by a 5-4 margin to capture a 2-1 victory in SouthWest Suburban Blue play. “In a lot of rivalries, especially this one, the records are kind of out of the window when the first whistle blows,” West coach Patrick Korthauer said. “Give credit to Central since they played their hearts out. A lot of it had to do with the good turnout from both sides and that really helped the boys to dig
down deep since a lot of players played quite a few minutes.” Although his squad fell a bit short, Steelmen coach Eduardo Contreras, who coached Korthauer when he was senior at Joliet Township, liked how his team battled and nearly rallied to capture the victory. That effort was typified when the Steelmen coach went with 10 players after a yellow card against his squad in the 70th minute, and his principled stand was rewarded about 30 seconds later when Central forced a tie. “I emphasize to the kids that it’s always team first, so we scored with only 10 players,” Contreras said. “Someone didn’t put the team first, so I went with the 10 guys who wanted to play as a team and you saw what we could do. With that momentum shift, we pretty much had control after that, but we couldn’t finish and that’s been a problem all season.” In the penalties, West (12-63) got goals from Ivan Lopez, Eduardo Bernal, Lalo Gutier-
rez, Elber Haro and Dan Ramos. Central (6-11-1) countered with scores from Jesus Sandoval, Giovanni Vivas, Brian Castillo and Armando Pantoja before Tiger keeper Josh Baldobinos made a stop on the final attempt. “We came in thinking that it was going to be a tough game, and it was,” Haro said. “Central gave us a really good fight but I think that we played good with a lot of effort and a lot of heart. Coming off of our loss to Bolingbrook, we were motivated for today. A lot of us have been together since we were young so just having played together has helped us.” Both sides had chances in overtime as Guillermo Escobar and Vivas were denied by Baldobinos and Aaron Serafin returned the favor against Gutierrez twice in the initial 10. The best chance came in the second overtime from the Steelmen when Manuel Sanchez had a try deflected by a defender and then Roberto Contreras sent a pass in front to Escobar, whose header went just wide.
Central had one of the best second-half opportunities when Luis Villagomez got free, but Tim Spesia cleared the ball in front of the net before it went in. Things were looking up for West after it connected in the 63rd minute to grab a 1-0 lead. Haro stole a pass and drove downfield before finding Gutierrez, who put in a short shot. But right after Central drew a yellow, Contreras opted to stick with his 10 men on the field. Not long after that, Sanchez, who scored his team’s lone goal in a 1-0 win over Homewood-Flossmoor on Thursday, got free on the side and placed one just inside the post. “There’s just some things that we have to fix and if we do, we can be a good team,” Vivas said. “We’re a good team now but we can be way better. Win or lose, we need to play as a team and always try to keep our head up. We could have won but it wasn’t our luck today.”

ARLINGTON HEIGHTS The University of St. Francis football team ran into a redhot squad in Robert Morris in a clash of two of the three leaders in the Mid-States Football Association Mideast League standings Saturday night. While the Fighting Saints, ranked No. 14 in the NAIA, had won four of their first five games, the No. 10 Eagles were off to a 5-0 start, including consecutive wins over top-25 teams. While USF kept Robert Morris out of the end zone, it was unable to keep it off the scoreboard. The Eagles received field goals from Josh Techeira in each quarter to help them claim a 12-7 victory. The offensive highlight for the Saints came with 33 seconds left in the third quarter when John Magee (17 carries, 52 yards) ran in from 2 yards out and Jordan Patsch added the extra point kick. But Techeira answered with a 51-yard field goal with 9:18 remaining. Robert Morris owned a 320167 edge in total yards, which included a 203-66 advantage on the ground. Lamont Wims rushed for 173 yards on 31 carries for the Eagles. Trace Wanless was 4 of 10 for 86 yards passing while Troy Torrence caught two passes for 62 yards for the Saints. Leading tacklers for USF were Ken Mason (12), Brett Ditchman (11) and Jamal Graham (9), who also had an interception.

The little-known backup has rushed only 11 times, but he’s piled up 121 yards and two touchdowns. He is just as explosive catching the ball, with six catches for 156 yards and two more TDs. You’ve heard the argument ever

BEARS AT FALCONS MATCHUPS When Bears have the ball Key players: Brandon Marshall, slowed by an ankle injury he suffered in the opener, has six receptions for 69 yards and a touchdown in his past three games. This is a pretty good spot for Marshall to break out of it. Falcons CBs Desmond Trufant and Robert Alford are good athletes, but they will be at the mercy of the Falcons’ pass rush in defending Marshall and Alshon Jeffery. On the ground: After a big game vs. the Packers (23-122), Matt Forte had a tough day against the Panthers last week (17-61), including a rare fumble in the fourth quarter. He figures to respond with a big effort and will have the chance against a Falcons defense that ranks 28th in rushing (148 ypg). C Roberto Garz is expected to start for the first time since suffering a high ankle sprain in the opener, but LT Jermon Bushrod (knee/ankle) is still out. Jay Cutler has seven of the Bears’ 16 rushes of 10 or more yards. His two 25-yard scram-
bles are the Bears’ only rushes of more than 19 yards. That could be a factor in this game. In the air: The Bears are 2-0 when Cutler doesn’t throw an interception and 0-3 when he does – and that figures to make the difference against a porous Falcons pass defense that ranks 24th in yards per game and last in yards a pass attempt and has just two INTs. Opposing QBs have a 95.5 passer rating against the Falcons (5 TDs, 2 INTs). The Falcons have just four sacks and have allowed a pass play of 36 or more yards in every game.
When Falcons have the ball Key players: Moreso than most weeks, the Bears aren’t going to win this game without a pass rush, which puts the onus on Jared Allen to win his battle with Falcons rookie LT Jake Matthews or create enough havoc to allow Willie Young, Lamarr Houston and others to
put pressure on Matt Ryan. Allen has no sacks in four games with the Bears. He’ll get his best chance yet in this one. On the ground: Steven Jackson was once one of the most durable and prolific RBs in the NFL, but not anymore. In his 11th season, Jackson has slowed considerably – 63 carries for 238 yards (3.8 ypc) and 2 TDs with a long gain of 17 yards. The Falcons’ most dangerous big-play threat is Antone Smith (11-121, 11.0, 2 TDs), who has four TD runs of 38 or more yards in his past 15 carries, including two this season. The Bears have allowed just five RB rushes of 10 or more yards since the opener and rank 16th against the run this season. With Lance Briggs (ribs) out, rookie Christian Jones likely will be on the spot. In the air: This is where it gets a little dicey. Ryan is 2-0 with a 142.2 passer rating at home this season, with 6 TDs and 0 INTs (vs. 72.8 on the road). – Mark Potash, Chicago Sun-Times

Depending on how much you value statistics, there’s a good chance these Bears just aren’t who we think they are. In case you haven’t checked the numbers lately, the Bears are as good or better on defense as they are on offense. The Bears rank 17th in total offense and total defense. They’re only 22nd running the football but actually have improved to 16th in the NFL stopping the run. They’re 14th throwing the football and 17th defending the pass. What is really interesting is for all the credit we give the offensive line and all our focus on the defense’s lack of a pass rush, the Bears are 11th in QB sack percentage and 19th in percentage of QB sacks allowed. The Bears’ defense is second in the NFL in interception percentage, and Jay Cutler is 23rd in percentage of interceptions thrown. The offense is 16th in points scored, while the defense is 23rd in points allowed. Through five weeks this season, the Bears are significantly better on defense than they were last year and well behind where they finished last season on offense. That said, the greatest challenge the Atlanta Falcons will present Sunday will be to the Bears’ defense. Atlanta has one of the best offenses in the league, third in total offense, second throwing the football and third in points scored. Matt Ryan is the trigger at quarterback, but in another strange-but-true fact, his numbers almost are identical to Cutler’s. Ryan has a passer rating of 96.4 to Cutler’s 94.9. Ryan has piled up more yards with 1,579 to Cutler’s 1,295, and he has one fewer TD pass than Cutler with 11. They both have thrown six picks. Steven Jackson’s best years are behind him at running back, but keep an
leading receiver with 40 catches for 552 yards and three TDs. Levine Toilolo is another in the growing ranks of Stanford tight ends in the NFL, and at 6-foot-8, 265 pounds, he’s a matchup nightmare for every safety and linebacker in the league. There has been a great deal of conversation about Atlanta’s injuries on the offensive line, with tackles Sam Baker and Lamar Holmes and center Joe Hawley all out for the season. But they expect to get left guard Justin Blalock back on the field this week after a back injury felled him. In spite of all the carnage, the Falcons are sixth in the league in sacks allowed. The good news for the Bears and their fans is the Falcons’ defense is awful, 29th in total defense, 31st sacking the quarterback, 29th in interceptions and 29th in points allowed. With linebacker Sean Weatherspoon and safety William Moore out with injuries, there are no playmakers on this unit to fear. The Falcons have only four sacks on the season, one each for DT Corey Peters, LB Jonathan Massaquoi, OLB Stansly Maponga and OLB Osi Umenyiora, who is a shadow of the Pro Bowler he was with the Giants, and they have only two picks in five games. Here is probably the Bears’ biggest concern. The Falcons are 0-3 on the road, but 2-0 in Atlanta, where they hung 37 points on the Saints in a shootout and 56 on the Bucs in a wipeout. The key to victory for the Bears on Sunday is to get a couple of stops here and there on defense, and score every time they touch the ball. That’s how the Vikings and Teddy Bridgewater did it two weeks ago. Why not the Bears?

Notre Dame pulls out win over UNC
The Herald-News / TheHerald-News.com • Sunday, October 12, 2014

By TOM COYNE The Associated Press SOUTH BEND, Ind. – Everett Golson and Notre Dame did just enough to overcome their own mistakes and beat North Carolina. The 50-43 victory Saturday, the highest-scoring game in the 84-year-history of Notre Dame Stadium, wasn’t secure for the sixth-ranked Irish until Ben Koyack recovered the Tar Heels’ onside kick with 47 seconds left. “We managed to find a way to battle back and get up on them and score 15 points late in the game and get a win,” Notre Dame coach Brian Kelly said. “There are many, many things I could delve into, but I would say the thing that points up for me is that our guys know how to win football games. They found a way to win this one.” It marked the second straight game where the Irish (6-0) rallied to win in the fourth quarter. Last week, they beat Stanford with a touchdown with 61 seconds left. The Irish are at No. 1 Florida State (6-0) next week. Notre Dame’s last game against a No. 1 team was against Southern California in 2005, the “Bush Push” game when Trojans tailback Reggie Bush nudged quarterback Matt Leinart into

North Carolina (2-4) lost its fourth straight and fell to 0-12 all-time at Notre Dame Stadium. “I just left a team whose guts are ripped out of them right now,” North Carolina coach Larry Fedora said. “They came here believing they were
going to win a football game, and they came up short.” Golson threw three touchdown passes to overcome his three turnovers, giving him a total of nine turnovers in the past three games. He was 21 of 38 passing for 300 yards. “If you take away those three turnovers that I had, the score looks a little
bit more relaxed. I will do better,” Golson said. North Carolina’s Marquise Williams threw two touchdown passes, ran for another score and caught a 23yard TD pass from receiver Quinshad Davis late in the third quarter to give the Tar Heels a 36-35 lead. But mistakes hurt the Tar Heels as they have all season. A roughing-the-center penalty on North Carolina’s Norkeithus Otis kept alive a drive that led to a 9-yard TD pass from Golson to Tarean Folston early in the fourth quarter and the Irish added a two-point conversion. Fedora said he was better off not commenting about the penalty, but said Otis told him he didn’t hit the center too early. But Kelly said the Notre Dame coaches alerted officials earlier that North Carolina was doing it. North Carolina was driving when Williams’ short pass was intercepted by cornerback Cole Luke at the 26. That set up Folston’s 6-yard scoring run, his third touchdown. Fedora called the interception unfortunate. “That guy played his heart out,” Fedora said. “He really gave everything he had out there.”
CENTRAL MICHIGAN 34, NORTHERN ILLINOIS 17
Chippewas snap Huskies’ home winning streak By STEVE NITZ snitz@shawmedia.com DeKALB – Northern Illinois’ 28-game Huskie Stadium winning streak is history. Central Michigan running back Thomas Rawls played a big part in ending NIU’s win streak in DeKalb. The tailback ran for 270 yards and two touchdowns Saturday in the Chippewas’ 34-17 win. He is the first player in five seasons to run for 200 or more yards against NIU. Rawls carried the ball 40 times for the second straight week. He ran for 229 yards in a win Oct. 4 over Ohio. “We try to not [give him 40 carries]. I kept asking, ‘When do you want to take him out’ but the game was tight all the way to the end, the guy keeps making yards and it wasn’t the plan today, I can tell you that,”

Northern Illinois cornerback Paris Logan (center) and linebacker Jamaal Payton (right) attempt to stop Central Michigan wide receiver Titus Davis in the second quarter Saturday in DeKalb. Central Michigan coach Dan Enos said. “The guy’s a competitor. He’s tough, he has very good vision.” It’s the first time NIU has lost at Huskie Stadium since being defeated Sept. 26, 2009, by
Idaho. Central Michigan was the last MAC team to beat NIU in the regular season, doing so in 2011. The Chippewas are also the last MAC program to defeat the Huskies in DeKalb, earning a win Nov. 12, 2008.
“I’m not disappointed about the streaks. That’s stuff you guys put on papers. I’m disappointed we lost a game,” NIU coach Rod Carey said. “Homecoming, and that stuff with a lot of the old guys back here and everything, so I’m disappointed for that. The biggest thing I’m disappointed for is these guys. They’ve worked hard and we just need to work harder, and we need to work better.” The Huskies’ offense looked to be in sync on its first drive, with Juwan Brescacin catching a 20-yard touchdown pass from Drew Hare to take a 7-0 lead. However, the Chippewas rolled off 24 straight points on two touchdown runs by Rawls, a 6-yard touchdown catch by Jesse Kroll and a 25-yard field goal by Brian Eavey. NIU kicker Tyler Wedel would get three points back
with a 24-yard field goal to make the score 24-10, but the Chippewas came back with a 13-yard touchdown pass from Cooper Rush to Ben McCord. NIU pulled to within 14 points late in the third quarter, when Brescacin caught a 14-yard touchdown pass from Hare. Eavey finished off the scoring with a 23-yard field goal. The Huskies will try to get back on track, and start a new Huskie Stadium win streak, when they host Miami (Ohio) at 4 p.m. Saturday. “I absolutely believe in these guys 110 percent, I believe in this team,” Carey said. “I couldn’t be prouder of the way they played all the way to the end of the game. Certainly, I know this team as a whole is going to be steady, we’re going to get better and take this thing one day at a time.”
BIG TEN ROUNDUP
Wisconsin’s Melvin Gordon (25) runs past Illinois’ Eaton Spence for a touchdown run Saturday during the first half in Madison, Wis.
WISCONSIN 38, ILLINOIS 28
Gordon, Badgers hold off Illini By GENARO C. ARMAS The Associated Press MADISON, Wis. – Melvin Gordon stumbled through the hole with a couple awkward steps, appearing as if he was about to fall face first into the turf. Somehow, he kept his balance. Seconds later, Gordon completed his dash down the sideline for a 46-yard gain. Just another big day on the ground for Wisconsin’s star tailback. Gordon rushed for 175 yards and four touchdowns, Corey Clement added 164 yards and a 72-yard score and the Badgers held off Illinois for a 38-28 victory Saturday. “He is the best player I’ve ever been around – his ability to change the game at any moment,” coach Gary Andersen said about Gordon. Gordon padded his resume for a potential Heisman Trophy candidacy with another highlight-reel performance. The junior eclipsed 1,000 yards on the season in just Wisconsin’s sixth game, a school record. Wisconsin (4-2, 1-1 Big Ten) started Joel Stave at quarter-
back for the first time this season, but Gordon did most of the damage against the league’s worst rushing defense. Gordon’s 46-yard scamper led to a 44-yard field goal that put Wisconsin up, 24-14, at the half. “It’s tough because you don’t know who’s on the left side of you, or who’s on the right side. You can get blasted like that sometimes,” Gordon said. “You just do your best to try to keep your balance.” Illinois (3-4, 0-3) rallied in the fourth quarter with mobile backup Aaron Bailey at quarterback. He led them to two scores to get within 38-28 with about 3 minutes left before Illinois recovered an onside kick. But Bailey threw an interception with 2 minutes left to seal Wisconsin’s win. His fluttering deep pass was tracked down by safety Peniel Jean at the 2. Wisconsin ran out the clock from there. “We worked hard and competed for four quarters. We just didn’t have enough in us,” Illinois coach Tim Beckman said. And they couldn’t stop Gordon, Wisconsin’s one-man
hurry-up offense. Gordon, who finished with 27 carries, is a lethal combination of power and breakaway speed made all the more dangerous when the Badgers’ beefy offensive line opens up running lanes. It didn’t really matter who was handing off the ball to Gordon or Clement. All week, coach Andersen maintained that both Stave and Tanner McEvoy would take snaps behind center. On Saturday, Stave ended up supplanting McEvoy, who had started the first five weeks. Stave, who reclaimed the starting job he held last season, presents more of a deep-passing threat. McEvoy, a mobile quarterback, played just one series. The best play call was simple: handoff to Gordon. He had touchdown runs in the first half from 15 and 6 yards before jumping into the end zone from a yard out with 1:08 left in the third quarter for his fourth score and a 31-14 lead. “We had a lot of good pass plays in the game plan, but it’s tough to get to when you’re running it as effectively as we were,” Stave said.
Iowa rolls past Indiana IOWA CITY, Iowa – Jake Rudock threw for 210 yards and two touchdowns and Iowa rolled past Indiana, 45-29, for its third straight win. Mark Weisman had a pair of short TD runs for the Hawkeyes (5-1, 2-0 Big Ten), who scored all but seven of their points in the first half.

MINNEAPOLIS – Jalen Myrick returned a kickoff 100 yards in the fourth quarter to atone for a penalty on the previous drive and help Minnesota defeat Northwestern, 24-17, on Saturday. Mitch Leidner was 10 for 15 for 153 yards and ran for two touchdowns and David Cobb added 97 yards rushing on 30 carries for the Golden Gophers (5-1, 2-0 Big Ten), who didn’t lose any momentum during the bye week after a convincing win at Michigan. After Northwestern (3-3, 2-1) drove 97 yards to tie the game at 17 midway through the fourth quarter, Myrick raced through a big hole on the left side and out-ran the Wildcats down the sideline for the winning score.
55 Harris closed out the last chance for Purdue (3-4, 1-1 Big Ten) with a 15-yard interception return for the game-sealing score. The Spartans (5-1, 2-0) have won four straight overall, including seven straight conference road games.

‘The most exciting part of the visit’ Doctors at Joliet health center distribute free books to patients By DENISE M. BARAN–UNLAND
Get involved
dunland@shawmedia.com JOLIET – Volunteers with tote bags are well-received in waiting rooms full of children at the Will County Community Health Center – especially once they begin to read from the books in their bags. It really doesn’t matter, said Rita Giannattasio, health promotion specialist, if the volunteer speaks English and the children do not. “The children enjoy the closeness, the colors and listening to the volunteer’s voice,” Giannattasio said. That scene and many others began with the vision of Dr. Daniel Gutierrez, former chief medical director at the Will County Dr. Daniel Community Health Center Gutierrez in Joliet, who still sees patients at the center once a week. “We would have all these kids running around during long waits and I thought, ‘Wouldn’t it be nice if we had some books for them to read to keep them occupied?’ ” Gutierrez said. That was the beginning of a local chapter of Reach Out and Read at the center. This is a national program that encourages doctors to share new books with 6-month to 5-year-old patients during well-child exams to foster literacy, said Giannattasio, who oversees the program, as well as check for age-specific skills. “We give the right books at the right visits,” said Dr. Melanie Harris-Smith, a pediatrician who practices at the center and participates in Reach Out and Read, “and apply them to the developmental milestones of the child. … It’s the most exciting part of the visit.”
For information about Reach Out and Read, visit www.reachoutandread.org. To donate books, contact Rita Giannattasio at 815-740-7629 or ritag@willcountyhealth.org.
find funding,” Giannattasio said. The initial funding – $100,000 – came from the late Joliet philanthropist Vera Smith, who was Gutierrez’s English teacher when he was a Joliet Junior College student and a huge literacy supporter. The money was used toward creating the center itself, along with a separate reading room with child-sized table and chairs. Six thousand dollars was allocated for the first round of new books, Giannattasio said. Fortunately, different organizations and businesses do get involved. For instance, nursing students at Joliet Photo provided Junior College hosted a new Dr. Melanie Harris-Smith gives a book to a patient in the exam room at the Will County Community Health book drive, and the Barnes & Noble in Bolingbrook Center in Joliet. hosts a new book drive every year during the holidays, For example, Harris-Smith “Parents are now coming Giannattasio said.

ASK DOCTOR K Anthony L. Komaroff determine your baseline by wearing the pedometer for three days from the time you get up until bedtime. Divide the total steps taken by three, to get an idea of your average steps per day. Each week, add 500 steps per day until you reach your goal. Many experts recommend aiming for 10,000 steps a day. With or without a DFM, it’s a good idea to add more walking to your routine. Dr. Richard Ginsburg, a psychologist with Harvard-affiliated Massachusetts General Hospital, suggests the following to sneak more steps into your day: – Get a dog. You’ll have to walk the animal at least once or twice a day. – Consider sports. Take up golf, for example, which involves a lot of walking. – Visit walking-only destinations. You could log a few miles at a museum, botanical garden or amusement park. – Window-shop at the mall. One lap around an average mall’s upper level ranges from a quarter to a half mile. For people who really want to adopt a healthier lifestyle, digital fitness monitors make it easier to do. Some of my patients, and my friends, seem almost obsessed with them. One of my patients has chosen not just to average 10,000 steps a day – he has to beat that number every day. This is a healthy obsession to have!

DEAR DOCTOR K: I’d like to be more active. Do you think a digital fitness monitor will help? DEAR READER: When digital fitness monitors (DFMs) became available several years ago, I was initially skeptical. I figured they would be the latest example of our fascination with electronic devices and that people would quickly tire of them. Well, surveys show that some people have quickly tired of them and left them to collect dust in a drawer. However, many folks use them consistently and swear by them. Different strokes for different folks. DFMs come in wearable styles such as wristbands, watches and pendants, or hand-held pieces you can clip onto a sleeve or slip into a pocket. They monitor one or more things that affect your physical fitness. They also nag you when you’ve fallen behind your personal goals – but it’s hard to get mad at them. DFM features may be simple, tracking the number of steps you take or the calories you burn. Or they may be more sophisticated, capturing your heart rate and sleep patterns. Some have alarms that remind you to be more active, or announce that you’ve reached a goal. Most allow you to chart your progress online. Many let you virtually compete with family and friends. But do DFMs make you more active? Research suggests they do. In an analysis of 26 studies, pedometer users added more than 2,000 steps per day to their baseline over 18 weeks. More important, they lowered their blood pressure and body mass index. DFM prices vary widely. If you’re strapped for cash, buy a basic pedometer, which simply counts your steps. Once you have a DFM,

PUZZLES SUDOKU
BRIDGE by Phillip Alder
CELEBRITY CIPHER
All top bridge players are good at math. But a lot of the sums should not be beyond anyone. Look at today’s South hand. Partner opens one club, East passes, South responds one spade, West intervenes with two hearts, North passes, and East passes. What should South do now? At the table, South, someone who has been successful in his career, passed out two hearts. What was he thinking? As soon as North opened one club, South should have said to himself, “I have 14 points; we are bidding at least game.” South should have made a takeout double. North would have bid two spades, showing three-card support. (With four spades, he would have raised to two spades on round two.) Then South would have jumped to four spades. How should South plan the play in four spades after West leads the club queen? One other point in the auction: East should not have passed over two hearts with four trumps and a void. He should have bid (three or) four hearts. South is faced with losers in each suit. But he will survive just as long as he plays low from the dummy at trick one. Suppose East ruffs (it is stronger defense to discard) and shifts to a heart. (South won’t misguess that suit if left to himself.) West wins and gives his partner another ruff – again, declarer must play a low club from the dummy. Say East exits with a heart to dummy’s king. Declarer draws trumps, cashes his club king, crosses to dummy with a diamond, and discards his diamond loser on the club ace to get home.

You have the points, so bid game
