Police: Halloween safety more a concern Trick-or-treating hours for area municipalities

By BRIAN STANLEY bstanley@shawmedia.com All Hallow’s Eve doesn’t mean any more All-Points Bulletins than the average night.

Joliet police and Morris police say the holiday has a negligible effect on criminal activity, so the officers’ focus is on children safety in the early evening hours.

“Every year we do get a few reports of decorations taken or damaged, but it’s probably the same amount as the Christmas season,” Morris Chief Brent Dite said. “And those are really the only times a lot of people have decorations outside.”

Joliet Deputy Chief Ed Gregory said trick-or-treating hours are mostly “little guys [out] with their parents” so traffic is a bigger concern.

The busiest area is the Central zone, which includes the St. Pat’s neighborhood, the Cathedral Area, Reedwood, Broadway, Joliet and McDonough streets, and Second Avenue and Richards Street.

“There’s over 1,000 kids in the Western Avenue corridor, so we have officers and Police Explorers helping with traffic there,” Gregory said. Neighborhood policing officers, additional supervisors and probationary officers also will be visible in different neighborhoods, and patrol officers will help if they aren’t responding to calls.

“The biggest thing is for

While the kids are running from house to house and crossing the street, a lot are wearing costumes that might not be as visible and [keep

change. Morris trick-or-treating hours are from 4 to 7 p.m.

Free trick-or-treat bags are available at the police station.

Dite said parents who are not going with older children still should know their planned route and remind them not to eat candy until they can inspect it, and not to enter a stranger’s house.

Trick-or-treaters also shouldn’t stop at dark houses, Dite said.

Local police, emergency services honor WTC beam

By VIKAAS SHANKER vshanker@shawmedia.com NEW LENOX – A steel beam from one of the walls of the World Trade Center met several area fire departments early Friday morning as it traveled west on Interstate 80 through Will and Grundy counties.

On at least three different overpasses, local fire departments honored the beam as it traveled on its journey from John F. Kennedy Airport in New York to its destination in Fort Collins, Colorado.

New Lenox Fire Protection District Lt. Brian Applegate’s station truck helped hold a large U.S. flag on the Cedar Road overpass as the beam’s procession passed by, honking and sounding sirens.

“It’s good for us to be able to show our support,” Applegate said. “Remembering 9/11, as a fireman, it brings back a lot of reasons of why we do the job.”

The flag was propped up by ladders from two fire trucks.

Firefighters saluted as the flag drew near and passed at exactly 7 a.m.

East of New Lenox, Frank-

beam as it passed through town.

Although they couldn’t get the flag up in time before the beam passed because of location tracking issues, firefighters and police officials turned on their lights and saluted.

“It’s a show of support for all that perished,” Mokena Police Chief Steve Vaccaro said.

“But it also symbolizes that we’re recognizing all our first responders.”

The beam was granted to the Poudre Fire Authority in Fort Collins through the Terry Farrell Firefighters Fund,

an organization that runs on donations and fundraisers and provides relief to firefighters and families facing hardship.

It was named in honor of Terry Farrell, a New York firefighter who lost his life on 9/11. The fund also distributes donated firefighting equipment to departments.

The beam was expected to be in Lincoln, Nebraska, by the end of the day Friday, then arrive at Fort Collins on Saturday afternoon. It can be tracked at www.poudre-fire. org/what-s-new/wtc-artifact-journey.

Football coach focused on overcoming challenges in midst of closure

By FELIX SARVER fsarver@shawmedia.com

JHN

FRANKFORT – The crowd at Lincoln-Way North High School shook the stands and cheered at the top of its lungs Friday for their unbeatable football team.

North players faced off against Lincoln-Way West in their final game of the regular season – one of many games in their final year at the school.

Next fall, Lincoln-Way District 210 officials plan to close North – one of the district’s four schools – to resolve the district’s financial crisis.

But the football team’s resolve remains strong, as does the enthusiasm of fans and the community’s support.

“These kids are really embracing what this year is,” said Amy Bajic, a Lincoln-Way North Athletic Boosters spirit wear director who was selling Phoenix-themed clothes at Friday’s game. “They’re not down in the dumps.”

Instead, Phoenix football players have proven unbeatable throughout the season, winning Friday’s game, 28-21, against West. The team grew closer this year, and its coach, George Czart, has stayed vigilant so players can be strong.

The legacy of the Phoenix football team still is unwritten.

“We’re in the process of acting that out. I hope it’s poetry in motion; a fitting end for such a short life,” Czart said.

Focused on winning

Czart said he and his team are not thinking about the district’s plan to shut down the 7-year-old North High School by next fall.

Instead he’s been focused on the task at hand: Ensuring the Phoenix football team wins every game. He’s kept things positive among the players and wants them to enjoy every moment they can.

“We’re out there to prepare for our opponents. We make

sure [North’s closing] is not a distraction for what we need to accomplish on the game field,” Czart said.

That goal is shared by many

players on the team, such as senior Pat Troike, a wide receiver and safety.

“We’re kind of using [the closing of North] to our advan-

tage. We want to go out with a bang and leave this community with something special,” he said.

can tell when a player is feeling down and always know what to say to make him feel better.

“We connect amazingly well out there,” Troike said.

That connection is evident to Frankfort resident Tony Schlott, whose children attend North. The community support for the team has been “100 percent” and even aspiring football players from area middle schools are coming to the games, he said.

“They work hard. They pick each other up. These guys are like a real family,” Schlott said.

Frankfort resident Leah Peters, who was at Friday’s game to see her son, Joe Peters, play, said she’s been excited for the team.

“This has been a very trying time for them. I am very excited to see what this year has to offer,” she said.

Devastating news

The news of the Lincoln-Way Board of Education’s 5-2 vote in August to shut down North devastated Czart and angered many parents and residents.

The district has incurred crippling multimillion-dollar budget deficits, and state education officials directed Lincoln-Way to find a way to close the gap. The board opted to shutter one of the district’s four schools.

North opened in August 2008 and pulls students living in the boundaries of Summit Hill School District 161, which serves residents living in Frankfort, Mokena and Tinley Park.

The state-of-the-art high

David Lux, father of senior Dave Lux, passes out ice cream to Lincoln-Way North football players Thursday during their team dinner before their final home game of the regular season in Frankfort. school – along with West – was constructed because of a $225 million building bond referendum approved in 2006 by 60 percent of voters at a time when the district’s population was projected to explode and more schools were thought to be needed to educate the expected influx of students. Then the recession hit, and the growth didn’t come. “[North] was opened to give kids in our district more opportunities, so it’s devastating to see now that these opportunities were only available to them for such a short period of time,” Czart said. “As far as North closing, it’s terrible, but when some doors close, some open.”

Coaching North

Czart, who’s been the football coach for North since it opened, said he has no idea what’s in store for him going forward with North closing.

“He’s a good role model,” said Jake Arthur, a junior student and Phoenix quarterback. “He teaches us how

to respect ourselves and our opponents.”

Lincoln-Way Superintendent Scott Tingley has said at the end of October and beginning of November district officials will interview head coaches districtwide and determine who will be at the remaining three high schools.

Czart previously was a football coach for Lockport Township High School District 205 and Providence Catholic High School.

When he began coaching the North team, it did not have any senior students, and the team lost many games.

“But our kids were tough and they were determined. I remembered from the beginning I would take that team over any other because of the way they worked and how tough they were,” he said.

‘This is my family’

All the underclassmen students on the Phoenix team will move on to Lincoln-Way East High School, the other Frankfort school in the dis-

trict, which is about 5 miles from North.

Arthur said he doesn’t expect too much of an unusual transition to East, as he’ll be with some of the same players. Sophomore student Jake Buhe, a left guard on the team, said he thinks Phoenix team members will be welcomed by East football players.

“I hope so at least,” he said.

Buhe played football all his life but he joined the Phoenix team this summer.

He said it’s sad North will close, but players are looking forward to making it a good year.

Senior student Nick Kramer, a Phoenix right guard, said he feels bad for underclassmen who will have to move on to a new school and make new friends.

Players have come together as a family. Kramer, Troike and other upperclassmen players have looked out for younger teammates.

“We’re making sure we stay together on this journey and no one loses,” Kramer said.

Kramer improved his social skills and made a lot of friends while he was on the team.

“This is really all I got,” he said.

“This is my family. I live for this.”

State budget crisis could become local crisis, too

By BOB OKON bokon@shawmedia.com The solution to the state budget crisis could determine whether cities, counties and townships ever see their shares of gasoline and gambling taxes again.

The State of Illinois since July has held onto $148 million in tax revenues from gasoline sales, Sue Rezin casino gambling and video gaming that normally go to local government, according to the Illinois Municipal League. The money is tied up in the state budget crisis.

But local officials have questioned whether the state plans to keep the money to pay its own bills.

“That’s what we’re tell-

ing them we think is going to happen,” said Brad Cole, executive director of the Illinois Municipal League. “We think that’s a likely maneuver that the state will take.”

Cole said he suspects that state officials Larry Walsh Jr. see money that goes to municipalities as a partial solution to its budget problems.

“They have a hole to fill.

It’s easy to fill Natalie Manley with someone else’s money,” he said.

The hole is about $6 billion, said state Sen. Sue Rezin, R-Morris.

“Everyone at the table has to figure out how to fill the $6 billion hole,” Rezin said.

The possibility of losing gasoline and gambling taxes is a stark example of how the state’s budget crisis could quickly become a budget crisis for local governments.

Joliet officials at a City Council meeting last week talked about the impact from losing the revenue.

“It would be a severe hit to us,” City Manager Jim Hock said. “We get $18 million [a year] from just our casinos.”

In Joliet, casino taxes over the years have paid for countless road projects, as well as Silver Cross Field, the Joliet Area Historical Museum and the Joliet Public Library Black Road branch.

Since the recession, casino taxes have been used to bolster the budget.

Hock said Joliet is joining Aurora and Elgin – other towns with casinos – in making a plea to Gov. Bruce Rauner to release the local share of

casino taxes.

Meanwhile, Democrats have initiated House Bill 4305, legislation that would appropriate the local share Motor Fuel Tax funds, gambling taxes and 911 revenue collected by the state.

State Rep. Natalie Manley, D-Joliet, a chief co-sponsor of the legislation, said the bill in part is a response to concerns that the state wants to keep the money.

“That’s why we brought this bill,” Manley said.

“There’s a lot of rumors.”

Manley said no one in state government has told her there is a plan to keep the local share of money. But she said the fears “are warranted.”

“We’re in a budget crisis, and I think everyone fears that the state is going to latch onto their money,” Manley said.

Rauner opposes HB 4305.

“HB 4305 is another attempt by the Democratic majority to

piecemeal together a budget that will force a tax hike on hard-working families without any meaningful reforms,” Rauner spokeswoman Catherine Kelly said in an emailed statement.

The Rauner administration instead is formulating an option to lend municipalities money that would be paid back when casino and gas taxes are available again.

State Rep. Larry Walsh Jr., D-Elwood, acknowledges the state does not have the authority to release the money to local governments without an appropriation ordinance in place. But he said HB 4305 is aimed at providing that authority.

He also said state officials have the power to keep the money, but that would be “a tough pill to swallow.”

“We have to pass a bill to do that,” he added. “I have not heard of that being proposed.”

Mayor warns HUD will resist management change until Evergreen Terrace appeal is won “We could obviously appeal to the court that any profits made during the appeal come to the city.”

By BOB OKON bokon@shawmedia.com JOLIET – Mayor Bob O’Dekirk last week warned that the city should expect a fight from the federal government before it can take over management of Evergreen Terrace.

“Unfortunately, we own an asset that we have no control over,” O’Dekirk told the Joliet City Council.

Joliet in late August paid $15 million for Evergreen Terrace after winning a 10-year condemnation case to take control of the low-income housing project from its private owners.

But the city is not getting any income off the property and won’t until it takes over management of the 356-apartment complex.

The city is in the process of going through steps required by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development before it will consider letting Joliet take over management. In the meantime, the past private owners of the housing complex have appealed the case.

O’Dekirk said he met with HUD officials in Washington,

Evergreen Terrace housing complex sits in the 300 block of North Broadway Street in Joliet. The Joliet City Council voted Aug. 18 to buy the complex. The city was warned last week to expect a fight from the federal government before it can take over management of the complex.

D.C., earlier this month and was told they will not support a change in management unless Joliet wins the appeal.

“Essentially, they’re taking a hard line on Joliet,” O’Dekirk said. “They are not going to release the property

to Joliet until the appeal is over.”

The appeal has been estimated to take anywhere from 18 months to two years.

City Manager Jim Hock said Joliet will go to HUD once it has its management team in

place and seek its approval.

HUD issues Section 8 vouchers that pay the rent on the property, so the agency exerts strong control over Evergreen Terrace. Hock said HUD is reluctant to go through the process of switching Section

8 vouchers to the city in case current ownership wins back the property in court.

“They would just as soon keep paying the current owners until the appeal is over,” Hock said. “We could obviously appeal to the court that any profits made during the appeal come to the city.”

But Joliet could seek court approval to take control over the property while the appeal runs its course, Hock said.

Joliet is working with Holsten Real Estate Development and Management Corp. in creating a partnership that would own and manage Evergreen Terrace.

Hock said Joliet is negotiating a partnership agreement with Holsten and expects to be ready to seek HUD approval before the end of the year.

Minooka man pleads guilty to sex abuse

By BRIAN STANLEY bstanley@shawmedia.com JOLIET – A Minooka man pleaded guilty Friday to sexually abusing two young girls.

Gerald P. Klein, 77, of the 23800 block of South Cottonwood Lane, will serve 30 days in jail and three years of sex-offender probation.

Judge Amy Bertani-Tomczak sentenced Klein after he pleaded guilty to two counts of aggravated criminal sexual abuse. Klein must also register as a sex offender for the rest of his life.

Klein had faced up to 30 years in prison, but charges of predatory criminal sexual assault were dismissed as part of the plea.

In 2007, Klein touched the genitals on an 8-year-old girl who was at his house.

On another occasion he rubbed his legs against the legs of another 8-year-old girl in a sexual manner, Will

County Assistant State’s Attorney Tom Slazyk told Bertani-Tomczak.

Both girls’ parents learned about the inappropriate contact the following year and contacted Will County Sheriff’s police, who conducted interviews but did not proceed with charges, according to police.

Four years later, the vicGerald P. Klein tims provided new information that led to Klein’s arrest in November 2012.

Klein is banned from having contact with minors, but will be allowed to attend religious services, Bertani-Tomczak ruled over prosecutor’s objections.

Klein declined to give a statement during court proceedings and was booked into the Will County jail.

Helland seeking re-election as Time!

Grundy County State’s Attorney It’s Turkey I’m

By HEIDI LITCHFIELD

hlitchfield@shawmedia.com MORRIS – Jason Helland has formally announced his candidacy for re-election as Grundy County State’s Attorney.

Helland, a Republican, was elected in November 2012 over Democrat John Bates. Grundy County Clerk Kay Olson said Elizabeth Johnson has pulled a petition for the primary as a Democrat. Helland said he believes, as state’s attorney, he has been successful in taking a preventative approach to drug crimes and DUIs. “We do a great job of prosecuting offenders, but we’re in preventative mode now,” Helland said Friday. “We want to prevent people from destructive decisions that can wreck their lives.”

Helland implemented several DUI prevention programs in 2013, and as a result said Grundy County had in 2013 its second-lowest number of DUI arrests in the past 15 years. He

also has partnered with the No Tolerance Task Force to hold heroin forums to educate the public parents about the drug.

Helland said he has spoken to large groups about the devastating effects of drug and alcohol abuse, domestic violence, bullying, elder abuse, and financial exJason Helland ploitation of the elderly.

“We’ve used drug forfeiture money to purchase three K-9 dogs and install cameras in parks in Mazon and Coal City to help prevent the use and sale of drugs,” Helland said.

Helland said he feels his biggest accomplishment as state’s attorney is establishing the first mental health court in Grundy County, and getting the state to fund it.

He graduated magna cum laude from the University of St. Francis in Joliet, and magna

cum laude from the John Marshall Law School in Chicago.

He has practiced law in Illinois since 2003 and worked at the Kankakee County State’s Attorney’s Office for eight years, where he practiced in the juvenile, traffic, misdemeanor, felony and mental health divisions.

Helland said his major goal in a second term would be to investigate and prosecute those involved in the homicide of Nicole Bowers. Although more than 15 years have passed, Helland believes his investigation will result in an arrest and prosecution of those responsible for Bowers’ death.

Helland lives in Mazon with his wife, Sara, and daughter, Harper.

The last day the County Clerk’s office will accept petition filings for the primary is Nov. 30; the primary election is March 15. The general election is Nov. 8, 2016. Calls placed Friday to Johnson were not immediately returned.

Bolingbrook police: Chicago men had ecstasy pills in car

By BRIAN STANLEY bstanley@shawmedia.com BOLINGBROOK – Three Chicago men were arrested Monday after police reportedly found drugs and a gun in their car.

Bolingbrook Cmdr. Mike Rompa said officers in the Problem-Oriented Policing Unit stopped a black 2014 Dodge Charger at 10:08 p.m. at Boughton Road and Miner Drive.

“The stop was a result of an ongoing narcotics investigation,” Rompa said.

Ryan C. Jeffries , 33, and Mutar Thomas, 33, both of the 4400 block of South Ellis Avenue, and Quincy M. Mat-

thews, 33, of the 400 block of East 48th Place, were taken into custody, Rompa said.

Officers reportedly found 17 pills of ecstasy inside the car.

They also found Thomas was carrying a .40-caliber Springfield XD handgun in his waistband, Rompa said.

Although Thomas has a concealed carry license, he allegedly did not tell police he was armed when they asked.

The three suspects were booked into the Will County jail on charges of delivery of drugs and drug possession.

Bond for each of the three was set at $100,000. Thomas also was charged with armed violence.

NEW LENOX – The financially troubled Lincoln-Way High School District 210’s past and future cash flow will be scrutinized under two recently proposed audits, district administrators announced after emerging from a closed-session meeting Thursday.

Superintendent Scott Tingley said administrators will present this week two separate requests for proposals in seeking auditing firm services. The move comes at the request of the board and advice from legal counsel during Thursday’s closed session.

One RFP seeks auditing services of the school’s future finances for academic years 2016 through 2018, while a second seeks an forensic audit examining the use of building bond proceeds since 2006.

“What that means is this company will come in and all the proceeds from those bonds issuances, they will track those dollars through the process of difference accounts all the way to expenditures,” Tingley said. “That’s the first step that we take. From that point, all those findings will be brought back to the board.”

Thousands of Lincoln-Way residents – including those associated with watchdog group Lincoln-Way Area Taxpayers Unite

equalized assessed valuation and estimated new construction tax revenue, that has yet to be finalized. The district expects to be extended $76.19 million.

Under the 2015 proposed levy, homeowners would pay $2.15 per $100 of equalized assessed value.

The levy was $2.15 per $100 of EAV in 2014. The board voted to place the proposed levy on the district’s website. The board is scheduled to consider the proposed levy at its Dec. 10 meeting.

– have petitioned for a forensic audit. Board member Christopher McFadden has equally criticized the district’s current auditors. At Thursday’s meeting, McFadden asked board members to also consider going to the taxpayers in the upcoming election with an $8.5 million ballot referendum to put toward a working cash fund as the district grapples with a multimillion dollar deficit for the 2015-2016 fiscal year.

It would serve as a one-shot deal to bring in revenue, he said, while the board explores its cost-savings options. The school board decided earlier this year to close Lincoln-Way North High School after the school year as a way to help the district crawl out of its budget deficit and get off the state’s financial watch list.

Proposed tax levy: The school district also began discussions Thursday about the 2015 tax levy – or the amount of money Lincoln-Way wants to collect from taxpayers in Will and Cook counties for the upcoming year.

Ronald Sawin, assistant superintendent of business, proposed a $77.45 million tax levy, an increase of about $381,400 from the $77.09 million requested in 2014.

He said the district typically adopts a higher levy knowing it will be granted less money than requested once tax assessments are complete. There are many unknowns, such as the final

Midewin prairie welcomes bison herd amid restoration efforts

By LAUREN LEONE–CROSS lleonecross@shawmedia.com WILMINGTON – Hands curled Friday around the heavy-duty fence stretching across the Midewin National Tallgrass Prairie pasture as onlookers watched South Dakota native Duane Lammers unhinge the gate and walk into the enclosed space – erasing the only barrier between him and the bison herd grazing several hundred yards away.

Three Midewin staff members followed, shutting the gate gently behind them.

The bison handlers carefully corralled the herd while maintaining a safe distance.

Minutes later, the small herd shifted in unison before gaining speed in the opposite direction of the handlers, dust billowing beneath their hooves that pounded into the dirt.

A hard left turn sent the herd toward an open gate opposite the fence lined with spectators before disappearing over the undulating hills – where 1,200 acres of fenced-in pasture awaited them.

“The idea is to handle them in a very low-stress manner.

That’s part of the training here, to help [staff] do it well,” said Lammers, a bison consultant hired by the U.S. Forest Service three years ago to help with the Wilmington-area prairie’s plans for this fall’s bison reintroduction.

A long-sought dream

To see bison roam here has been a long-sought dream of the U.S. Forest Service site since it was established in 1996. The bison reintroduction is part of an experimental long-term project to see how the herd’s grazing habits can benefit the area’s tallgrass prairie ecosystem and grassland bird habitat.

The small herd arrived in Illinois this week and last. Four bulls arrived early Wednesday morning from Yellowstone National Park.

Having never been hybridized with cattle, the herd at Yellowstone is among the nation’s few with genetically pure bison.

Midewin spokesman Gary Chancey said the site’s Welcome Center has been fielding many calls from people eager to catch a glimpse of the bison.

While planning for a large public event in spring 2016 is underway, Chancey said visitors are encouraged to call the Welcome Center to learn more about opportunities to see the bison roaming on any given day.

Because of the vast size of the pasture system and the rolling hills, spotting bison may be difficult depending on the herd’s location. The existing Iron Bridge Trailhead, located 3 miles north of the Midewin Welcome Center, will serve as the main access point to the bison area.

A self-guided trail leads visitors to the bison pasture fence line.

“He said it was something that we had lost forever,” Tidwell said. “At his time and place, he probably couldn’t see where we are today, where we are restoring our prairies, and we can do it with bison.

His dream of almost over 100 years ago that America would take the time and investment to be able to bring back these key prairie ecosystems, it’s happening today.”

The bison project is being done by the National Forest Foundation and other groups.

A newly constructed bison handling facility includes 9 miles of exterior and interior fencing that encompasses four distinct pastures, a corral area and a year-round watering source.

The infrastructure improvements will safely house the bison and allow Midewin staff and a contracted local veterinarian to monitor for disease and provide annual vaccinations.

The National Forest Foundation launched a crowd-funding campaign this year to raise $17,000 to install a live-streaming webcam at the prairie so viewers can see the bison roaming near the corral and watering hole.

Representatives from AkzoNobel presents a donation of playground equipment Friday for people with disabilities that was installed at Chapin Park in Morris.

Historic Morris park receives modern addition

By MIKE MALLORY mmallory@shawmedia.com

MORRIS – One of Morris’ oldest and historic parks received a new playground equipment addition and fresh paint Friday.

AkzoNobel donated a swing set made for people with disabilities as part of an ongoing effort to have a positive impact on the community.

“The program is funded by the company and it encourages employees to not only come up with an outreach idea but also get involved,” AkzoNobel’s Morris Site Director Greg Trec said. “Today we have employees here helping out. It’s a project for us to give back.”

Tina Weir of AkzoNobel said she thought of the idea this year. She works with people with disabilities through Special Olympics and Special Connections of Grundy County.

She also drives by the park each day, which is what sparked the idea of the playground equipment.

“There was nothing here for kids and people with disabilities,” Weir said.

She was able to get the project approved by AkzoNo-

“It’s a great project that Tina (Weir) came up with,” Kopczick said.

The addition is on the north side of the park, and will have a walk-up that connects to the street where there will be accessible parking spots.

The fact that Chapin Park is located in downtown Morris provides a centrally located play area for people with disabilities.

“It will see a lot of activity throughout the year, especially when you think of all the events we have,” Kopczick said. “It will see a lot of use.”

The equipment, materials and installation cost about $10,000, Weir said.

AkzoNobel and Morris Public Works were on hand Friday trying to get all equipment installed in one day so children can enjoy it as much as possible before winter weather hits. While the playground was installed, a smaller group was giving a fresh coat of paint to a heavily-chipped piece of equipment on the east side of the park.

Kopczick said people are now more aware of those with disabilities than when he was growing up, and it’s great to see initiatives such as this.

Local parents, day care workers rally in support of reversing CCAP eligibility requirements 17

Vikaas Shanker - vshanker@shawmedia.com

Direct Thy Path Day Care owner Sandra Thomas speaks in the center Friday morning as parents, children, day care workers and state Rep. Larry Walsh Jr., D-Elwood, and state Sen. Pat McGuire, D-Joliet, join in support of raising the Child Care Assistance Program’s required income for eligibility.

Rauner’s new requirements slashed the maximum income for a single parent of one child from $2,456 per month to $664 per month.

“I make just under $2,000 per month,” Ruff said. “Child care out-of-pocket is about $600 per month, a third of my income.

That’s going to dramatically affect my family, basic needs.”

‘Domino effect’

Supporters of Senate Bill 570 who gathered Friday with

her in the day care center claim that nine out of 10 applicants of CCAP aren’t eligible under Rauner’s requirements.

“Without SB 570, there will be a domino effect across our community,” Direct Thy Path owner Sandra Thomas said, noting the day care might soon be cutting staff hours and closing its second location.

The bill was passed Aug. 5 by the state Senate, but failed by a couple votes in the House on Sept. 2, said state Rep. Lar-

“But we need more representatives to get on board.”

Rauner, Batinick In an email response, Rauner spokeswoman Catherine Kelly said changes were made to CCAP to responsibly manage the state’s finances after “the Democratic majority passed a budget that was $4 billion in the hole.”

“One of the governor’s first actions in office was to save child care from the deliberate under-funding by the Democratic majority in the last fiscal year,” she states. “And as far as the governor is concerned, the state’s fiscal crisis should have been solved in May.” Batinick said he supports the bill, but in the scope of an entire balanced budget, not piecemeal.

CREST HILL – Ainsley Ruff has been using the state Child Care Assistance Program to help keep her family afloat for the past two years as she goes to school full time and works part time.

But Ruff, a single parent of two boys, was shocked a couple of weeks ago when she found out her re-determination for the Child Care Assistance Program, or CCAP, was canceled and won’t be renewed because of new requirements put in place July 1 by Gov. Bruce Rauner’s administration after a budget deal for the 2016 fiscal year wasn’t reached.

“I was told I wouldn’t qualify under Rauner’s new rules, which I think are unfair,” Ruff said at a news conference Friday morning in Direct Thy Path Day Care, 1801 Broadway St. in Crest Hill.

Ruff spoke in support of Senate Bill 570, which would allow CCAP to accept applicants who meet the Department of Human Services’ — not the governor’s — requirements.

ry Walsh Jr., D-Elwood, who attended the news conference along with Sen. Pat McGuire, D-Joliet.

“They’re not wants, they’re necessities,” Walsh said. “This is the society that we have and this is the society that we need to support.”

McGuire said it was shameful that nine out of 10 applicants are being turned away.

“What’s happening on Broadway in Crest Hill is the governor is punching a wound into your lives and into our community,” McGuire said.

Supporters asked for those Republicans who abstained or didn’t vote during the Sept. 2 House vote – and specifically singled out state Rep. Mark Batinick, R-Plainfield – to support Senate Bill 570 in a bipartisan fashion.

SAMUEL MILOSEVICH Born: May 15, 1924 Died: Oct. 2, 2015

Samuel “Sam” Milosevich, age 91, late of Romeoville, IL and formerly of Decatur, IL and Auburndale, FL, passed away peacefully at home Friday, October 2, 2015.

He joins his wife of 66 years Elizabeth “Libby” Milosevich, who departed this life on January 3, 2015.

They were married March 28, 1948.

Born May 15, 1924, to Rados “Rado” and Kata “Katie” (Milosevich) Milosevich in Zeigler, IL where Sam and his six brothers exhibited their all-around athletic prowess in southern Illinois high school athletics during the years 1929-1944. After graduating, Sam enrolled at Southern Illinois University in 1943, where he earned nine letters in football, basketball, and track.

He served as captain of the football team for three consecutive years while playing the position of tackle.

As the basketball team’s leading scorer, Sam helped SIU capture its first Illinois Intercollegiate Athletic Conference title in 1944. He was a starting forward on the 1946 team which won the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics (NAIA) Basketball Championship – a first for SIU. That same year Sam was named All-American in Basketball and awarded the Hinkley Memorial Award as the Most Outstanding Athlete at SIU. Sam was inducted into the Illinois State University Coaches and Players Hall of Fame in 1975.

Sam graduated in 1947 with a Bachelor of Science in Education with majors in physical education and mathematics. He also earned a Master of Administration in Education from the University of Illinois in 1954 and did postgraduate work at Northern Illinois University, Illinois State University, and Sangamon State University. From 1947-1967, his Illinois high school coaching and teaching career took Sam to Golconda, Warren, Tolono, and Decatur. In addition to coaching and counseling, Sam taught various classes in mathematics, American

and world history, geography, physical education, and driver training.

He was Supervisor of Counseling and Placement at the Decatur Area Adult Continuation Center from 1967-1973. Sam retired from public school teaching in 1985.

Sam was a loving and devoted husband and a beloved father and grandfather. He will be remembered for his “rough housing” with the children and his big hugs for all the family, his love of working outdoors in the yard, and his ability to coach athletics to all ages. He enjoyed traveling and accompanied his wife, Elizabeth, on several trips to Europe, some of which she had organized and they led. Beginning in 1980, he developed a successful physical fitness program in which he taught classes. Sam was also an ordained elder in the Presbyterian Church.

Surviving are his beloved three sons, Sam A. (Connie) Milosevich of Carmel, IN, Joe B. (Diane) Milosevich of Crest Hill, IL, and John R. (Janet) Milosevich of Grain Valley, MO; and his grandchildren, Erin and Ryan Milosevich, Shelley (Tony) Johnson, Matthew and Julie Milosevich, William (Angela) Milosevich, and Sarah and Darren Milosevich; and his younger brother, Pete Milosevich of New Port Richey, FL.

Actress Maureen O’Hara poses for a photo March 9, 2004, in the Bel Air Estates area of Los Angeles. Her manager said O’Hara died in her sleep Saturday at her home in Boise, Idaho.

Maureen O’Hara, spirited movie star, dies at age 95

By ROBERT JABLON The Associated Press LOS ANGELES – Fiery-haired and feisty, Maureen O’Hara could handle anything the world and Hollywood threw at her. But first and foremost, she always believed in herself.

“I do like to get my own way,” she said in a 1991 interview with The Associated Press. “There have been crushing disappointments.

But when that happens, I say, ‘Find another hill to climb.’ ” The Irish-born beauty was 95 when she died Saturday in her sleep at her home in Boise, Idaho, said Johnny Nicoletti, her longtime manager.

In her heyday, O’Hara was known as the Queen of Technicolor because of the camera’s love affair with her vivid hair, bright green eyes and pale complexion.

Never nominated for an Oscar (although she received an honorary Academy Award last year), O’Hara nonetheless starred in some of the bestknown and beloved movies of Hollywood’s Golden Age. She was the daughter of Welsh miner in the grim Oscar-winning 1941 film “How Green Was My Valley,” the mother who doubts her daughter, Natalie Wood, has really encountered Santa Claus in the 1947 Christmas classic “Miracle on 34th Street” and a scrappy Irish

colleen who is romanced by an American boxer (John Wayne) in 1952’s “The Quiet Man.” Wayne, who co-starred with her in five movies, once said: “I’ve had many friends, and I prefer the company of men, except for Maureen O’Hara; she’s a great guy.”

She also played the mother of twins, both played by Hayley Mills, who conspire to reunite their divorced parents in the 1961 Disney comedy “The Parent Trap.”

Maureen FitzSimons was born in 1920 near Dublin, Ireland. Her mother was a well-known opera singer, and her father co-owned a soccer team called the Shamrock Rovers. Through her father, she learned to love sports; through her mother, she and her five siblings were exposed to the theater.

She was twice married in the 1940s and 1950s but they ended in annulment and divorce, although the second produced her daughter, Bronwyn. In 1968, she married her third husband, Brig.

Gen. Charles Blair. After “Big Jake,” she quit movies to live with him in the Virgin Islands, where he operated Antilles Airboats. After his death in a 1978 plane crash, she ran the company for several years before selling it, making her the first woman president of a scheduled airline in the U.S.

STATE & NATION BRIEFS Ill. suit against marijuana consultant dismissed WAUKEGAN – A judge in Lake County has dismissed a lawsuit that claimed a Denver consultant was highly involved in too many Illinois medical marijuana growing facilities.

Judge Mitchell L. Hoffman last week ordered the complaint against Kayvan Khalatbari dismissed “with prejudice,” a legal term that generally means the plaintiff can’t file the same complaint again.

Medponics Illinois filed the lawsuit in May. Illinois officials still are reviewing applications in the Lake County region where Medponics has applied for a permit.

James Merlo of Medponics said further litigation is possible after the state issues a permit in the region.

4 dead after Oklahoma homecoming parade crash STILLWATER, Okla. – A woman suspected of driving under the influence plowed into a crowd Saturday during the Oklahoma State University homecoming parade, killing four people – including a toddler – and injuring dozens more after a collision that sent some spectators flying through the air.

Stillwater police Capt. Kyle Gibbs said the woman’s Hyundai Elantra struck an unoccupied motorcycle of an officer who was working security at the parade, then went into the crowd. She

was taken into custody, and Gibbs said investigators were awaiting the results of blood tests to determine if she was impaired by drugs or alcohol.

Oklahoma University Medical Center and The Children’s Hospital announced in a statement Saturday night a 2-year-old was the fourth person to die from injuries from the morning crash.

Five children and three adults remained hospitalized with conditions ranging from good to critical, officials said.

Gibbs had said earlier 34 people were taken to the hospital, including eight in critical condition.

Police said Adacia Chambers, 25, of Stillwater, was arrested on the DUI charge.

2 Virginia students arrested in shooting plot

FREDRICKSBURG, Va. – Two male students in Virginia have been arrested for plotting a shooting at their high school, law enforcement officials said Saturday.

The teens were planning to call in a bomb threat at Riverbend High School in Fredericksburg, which they attend, and then shoot at students and staff as they evacuated the building, said Capt. Jeff Pearce of the Spotsylvania County Sheriff’s office.

The students, ages 15 and 17, are being charged with conspiracy to commit murder and are being held without bond at a juvenile detention center, officials said.

Backed by moms and money, gun-safety group expands its clout

By RYAN J. FOLEY The Associated Press A gun-control organization backed by billionaire Michael Bloomberg that enlists mothers to speak out against gun violence is racking up some modest victories around the U.S., employing the state-by-state strategy used so effectively to fight drunken driving and expand gay rights.

Everytown for Gun Safety and its subsidiary, Moms Demand Action for Gun Sense in America, have helped push six states since 2013 to adopt more background checks on gun sales – what they consider the single most important measure to prevent shootings. They also have helped thwart legislation in several states that would make it easier to obtain firearms and carry them in more places such as schools.

The mighty National Rifle Association still has the upper hand in many places, in the U.S. But Everytown, which aspires to become the NRA’s counterweight, has certain advantages over previous gun-control campaigns,

namely more money, strategic support from the former mayor of New York, and a well-organized network of activist moms whose numbers are growing in reaction to recent mass shootings.

“We merged the head and the heart,” said Everytown president John Feinblatt, who was a top mayoral aide to Bloomberg. “We have the smartest lawyers in the country working on this issue, but we also have people who will do anything to make sure their families are protected.”

Everytown grew out of the merger last year of the Bloomberg-backed Mayors Against Illegal Guns and Moms Demand Action, which was formed by public relations executive Shannon Watts after the 2012 killing of 20 children and six adults at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Connecticut.

After Congress rejected a move to expand background checks following the Sandy Hook tragedy, activists turned their attention to statehouses, seeking what they say are modest, com-

monsense laws.

Bloomberg last year pledged $50 million to support Everytown and other gun violence prevention efforts. The nonprofit organization claims more than 75,000 donors and said 3.4 million people have expressed support for its cause by signing up for its email list, including hundreds of shooting survivors and victims’ loved ones.

In its most recent tax filing, Everytown reported $36 million in spending in 2013, or about 10 times as much as the Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence, a prominent gun-control group that has little presence in states.

The 5 million-member NRA spent $290 million that year, including $27 million on its lobbying arm.

The NRA remains a potent force in states. Gun rights supporters have successfully pushed for legislation to allow concealed weapons in more public places and to loosen permit and license requirements that they say undermine the Second Amendment right to bear arms.

Patricia inflicts little damage on Mexican coast 33

By CHRISTOPHER SHERMAN The Associated Press

• Sunday, October 25, 2015

CHAMELA, Mexico – Only a day after menacing Mexico as one of history’s strongest storms, Hurricane Patricia left surprisingly little damage in its wake Saturday and quickly dissipated into an ordinary low-pressure system that posed little threat beyond heavy rain.

The hurricane’s most powerful punch landed on a sparsely populated stretch of Mexico’s Pacific Coast before the system crashed into mountains that sapped its potentially catastrophic force. The popular beach city of Puerto Vallarta and the port of Manzanillo were spared the brunt of the violent weather.

Authorities still were trying to reach some of the hardest-hit areas, which were blocked by downed trees, but the devastation appeared to be far less than feared.

There were no reports of deaths or injuries, said Roberto Lopez Lara, interior secretary for the state of Jalisco. It was a remarkable outcome, considering Patricia had been a Category 5 hurricane with winds up to 200 mph before coming ashore with slightly less power in an area dotted with sleepy villages and a few upscale hotels.

Hours later, as the storm spun inland, it collapsed into fast-moving bands of rain aimed at already sodden Texas.

Residents of towns nearest the strike described enduring a terrifying night.

“Those were the longest five hours of my life,” said Sergio Reyna Ruiz, who took cover between the shaking concrete walls of a neighbor’s home when Patricia passed over the hamlet of La Fortuna, about 2 miles from the ocean. “Five hours riding the monster.”

Before the storm hit, Reyna tried to secure the shingles of his roof with metal cables. But looking up from the inside Saturday, the ceiling was a patchwork of old tile and blue sky.

He and family members next door tried to clean up, sawing through a downed tree and putting waterlogged mattresses and books into the sun to dry.

All were thankful that everyone survived: “It’s something to tell the grandchil-

Residents walk through the debris of homes destroyed by Hurricane Patricia on Saturday in Chamela, Mexico. Record-breaking Patricia pushed rapidly inland over mountainous western Mexico early Saturday, weakening to tropical storm force while dumping torrential rains that authorities warned could cause deadly floods and mudslides. dren,” Reyna said.

Down the road in Chamela, people picked through boards, tree limbs and other refuse for anything salvageable. All 40 families that live there rode out the storm at a shelter in nearby San Mateo. When they returned, they found little that was recognizable.

Arturo Morfin Garcia wielded a machete trying to clear debris from around his home, which was reduced to a jumble of bricks and beams. The only part left standing was a concrete bathroom at one end.

“It wasn’t hard to leave. It was hard to come back and find this,” Morfin Garcia said. “So much work to build something.

It makes me very sad, but what can we do with these natural phenomena?”

In Manzanillo, high winds and waves blew out windows and damaged some buildings.

Trees and utility poles were toppled. An enraged sea battered the Hotel Barra de Navidad in a nearby town, scooping

away sand from the foundations.

Puerto Vallarta, home to about 200,000 people, including thousands of U.S. residents and visitors, was largely unscathed.

After the storm passed, people snapped selfies next to a seaside sculpture, and business owners swept sidewalks as they would on any morning. Puddles dotted the downtown district, but no more than a passing thunderstorm might leave.

Patricia plunged ashore about 65 miles southeast of Vallarta, which was protected from much of the fury by mountains.

“We were fortunate as to where it made landfall. It was not a densely populated area,” said Dennis Feltgen, a meteorologist and spokesman for the U.S. National Hurricane Center. “You and I would be having a very different conversation if this went over the top of Puerto Vallarta.”

He said the lack of fatalities was probably the result of

the storm’s narrow footprint.

Category 5 winds extended 15 miles out on either side of the eye, and hurricane-force winds extended for 35 miles from the center of the storm.

On Saturday, Patricia’s maximum sustained winds had dropped to 30 mph, according to the hurricane center. The storm’s remnants were expected to feed into existing rain hitting southern Texas.

“There’s an area of low pressure that’ll be forming along the Texas coast, and that will be about the time that moisture from Patricia will be arriving,” Feltgen said. The wet weather was forecast to spread from Texas to the central Gulf coast by early next week.

By late afternoon, the hurricane’s remains were about 45 miles southwest of the Mexican city of Monterrey, moving to the northeast at 22 mph.

That such a monster storm could inflict so little harm seemed wondrous. Patricia formed suddenly Tuesday and

quickly strengthened to a hurricane. Within 30 hours it had zoomed to a record-beating Category 5 storm, catching many off guard with its rapid growth.

By Friday, it was the most powerful hurricane on record in the Western Hemisphere, with a central pressure of 880 millibars, according to the hurricane center.

Patricia’s power while still out at sea was comparable to that of Typhoon Haiyan, which left more than 7,300 dead or missing in the Philippines two years ago, according to the U.N.’s World Meteorological Organization.

Hurricane experts praised Mexico’s expertise at storm preparations and credited good fortune.

The mountains in the area quickly weakened the storm, and the coastal landscape did not offer the large area of shallow water necessary for a storm surge that could have become a devastating wall of water.

The upstream sector deals with the exploration and production of oil and natural gas.

This includes searching for oil and gas underground or underwater, drilling exploratory wells and operating wells that bring oil and gas to the surface. Among the most prominent upstream companies are Exxon Mobil, which produces about 5.3 million barrels of oil per day, BP, which produces 4.1 million BPD, Royal Dutch Shell, producing 3.9 million

Stepping Stones, NAMI receive awards from AT&T JOLIET – Stepping Stones and National Alliance on Mental Illness both were awarded Thursday with an AT&T “Investing in Illinois Award” for their respective nonprofit work to help people in Illinois.

“There are great nonprofit organizations improving lives in Illinois. By supporting these organizations, we’re strengthening the communities we serve,” Jeff Adducci, external affairs manager for AT&T, said in a news release Stepping Stones will receive $1,000 from AT&T to be used to provide substance use disorder treatment for those suffering from the disease of addiction, even if persons served are unable to pay

for the cost of services.

NAMI will receive $1,000 from AT&T to be used to expand services in Will and Grundy counties.

State Sen. Pat McGuire, D-Joliet, nominated Stepping Stones and NAMI for the recognition from AT&T. The AT&T “Investing in Illinois Awards” provide resources and recognition to organizations and programs that improve lives in their communities and the state.

ethanol terminal in California.

• Fleet services. The company provides rail car services through the management of a fleet of 3,800 rail cars and is committed to customers on a long-term basis. This USDP segment provides efficient access to key markets on a fixed-cost basis and seeks to become an important part of North America’s midstream infrastructure.

This teeny company, with just 10 million shares outstanding and a 6 million-share float, has a $2 book value, barely increased its most recent quarterly dividend, from 28.8 cents to 29 cents, and yields 12.5 percent. Citigroup, Barclays, Goldman Sachs, Janney Montgomery Scott, RBC Capital Markets, BMO Capital Markets, Deutsche Bank and Merrill Lynch took this little company public with the sale of 10 million shares at $17 in October 2014. I am impressed this barely noticeable initial public offering was run by such a powerful entourage of investment banks and wonder

whether there’s more here than meets the eye.

Then I wonder why the share price of USDP has never risen above its $17 IPO price.

However, it appears that revenues will move higher in the next reporting period, that the dividend is safe and that the dividend will be increased (minutely) again this year.

The distribution is not taxable; however, your cost basis is reduced each quarter by the amount of distribution that you receive.

With the exceptions of USDP’s prestigious, blue-chip underwriting consortium and a high-yielding dividend that seems, for the near term, to be secure, I can’t find a compelling reason to own this stock.

However, I would not object, if you can afford the risk, if you decided to buy 500 shares. This might be a good speculation.

OUR VIEW

Do your job govern Illinois The latest reminder of Illinois’ budget problems came last week.

Twice.

The partisan gridlock and budget crisis in Springfield forced Moody’s Investors Service on Thursday to downgrade Illinois’ rating on $26.8 billion in outstanding bond debt, citing the state’s weakening financial position. The move came the same week the Fitch Ratings dropped the state’s bond rating.

The credit rating agency gave Illinois a negative outlook, noting how “further deterioration in key measures, such as the state’s unfunded pension liabilities and amount of unpaid bills, would put pressure on the state’s [general obligations] and related ratings.”

The continual downslide will, among other things, affect Joliet’s ability to borrow money for planned major capital projects, the city’s $10 million pledge toward a new Will County courthouse, and the redevelopment of Evergreen Terrace, according to Joliet Mayor Bob O’Dekirk.

And it comes amid news that the Illinois State Museum, including the Lockport Gallery, is on probation by the American Alliance of Museums Accreditation Commission. John Lustig, gallery manager for the Lockport Gallery, said the museum’s credibility and ability to attract federal and state grant dollars will be at risk if the probation leads to a loss of accreditation.

And that throughout the state, programs from child care to Meals on Wheels are sustaining cuts that make it difficult to continue to provide those services.

We do not object to the concept of state budget cuts. Howev-

THE FIRST

AMENDMENT

er, we do object to leaving those cuts to circumstance.

That is precisely what has happened through our leaders’ refusal to reach an agreement on a state budget. State workers are being paid. So too are the very lawmakers who have failed to do their jobs for the people they represent.

Gov. Bruce Rauner might have declined a salary, but his highly paid administrative team is still seeing paychecks.

But while court orders and appropriations bills have committed about 90 percent of the budget – legislators, state workers, public schools all are funded – the vulnerable people are receiving nothing.

A budget that makes no reductions to 90 percent of state spending and then completely cuts off services for senior citizens, the disabled, 911 dispatch centers, domestic violence victims and the mentally ill – among others – is not one that most people would choose for our state.

Yet it what our leaders have chosen through their inaction and refusal to compromise.

While the unpaid bills pile up, the state’s pension systems, its legislative boundary drawing, and its workers compensation rules all go on without reform.

This is the choice that our leaders are making for Illinois , and it needs to end. Some people now are pointing to Jan. 1 as a potential date for a new budget to be approved.

We prefer not to imagine what other dominoes will fall if there is no resolution before then.

Illinoisans are tired of this self-imposed misery. It is time our leaders did what we elected them to do: Govern our state.

Hillary Clinton real focus of Benghazi committee The morning of Hillary Clinton’s testimony before the Benghazi committee was relatively civil. But three hours in, things got heated.

It wasn’t former Secretary of State Clinton who lost her cool. She remained calm. Shortly before the lunch break, though, Rep. Elijah Cummings, D-Md., confronted committee chairman Trey Gowdy, R-S.C., alleging he lied this past weekend on national TV when he said that he has “zero interest” in investigating Clinton’s emails or activities of the Clinton Foundation. As ThinkProgress reports, Cummings said Gowdy subpoenaed Clinton adviser Sidney Blumenthal and then both directly asked and directed his staff to ask about the Clinton Foundation and other non-Benghazi related topics during the private deposition.

“You’ve made several

VIEWS Donna Brazile inaccurate statements over the past months as you’ve tried to defend against multiple Republican admissions that the select committee has been wasting millions of tax dollars to damage Secretary Clinton’s bid for president,” Cummings said, growing angry during his exchange with Gowdy.

Seven congressional hearings into Benghazi – including the last one, which completely exonerated Clinton, the Obama administration and the CIA from wrongdoing – and we had to endure yet an eighth hearing this week.

The Benghazi committee is approaching the longest congressional inquiry in U.S. history, rounding the bend at a

cost of $4.5 million dollars.

Its chairman, Gowdy, said it uncovered “new evidence,” referring to Clinton’s private email server. The truth is that the server became public knowledge through an article in the media.

Gowdy merely exploited it, milking it with selected leaks and accusations that have failed even a nodding acquaintance with the facts.

Gowdy’s committee isn’t investigating Benghazi; it’s investigating Hillary Clinton. Just when we most need statesmen, we get politicos exploiting hackers’ harmful acts for party gain. The result, polls show, is a public skeptical of both the committee and Clinton.

Gowdy is a former prosecutor who has amply demonstrated he considers himself the official prosecutor for Congress,

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

Beginning in 2006, Syria experienced a mega-drought,

shame, our Republican Party is the only climate-denying political party in the world despite the irony of our position as the leading nation of the free world. Are we willing to abdicate our stellar reputation in science? Do we want to look like a nation of idiots? It’s about time the Republican Party stops behaving like adolescents, gets their heads out of the sand, their fingers out of their ears, and grows up! Do your job as statesmen by providing the leadership that we need!

Invest in America with Bernie Sanders

To the Editor: Everybody asks, “How much are Bernie Sanders’ plans gonna cost?”

I think the more important question is, how expensive is it not to have him? How expensive is it to have a medical emergency without insurance?

How much does it cost our society when people don’t have

access to higher education?

How expensive is it to seek out the military option instead of diplomatic resolutions? How much more are we spending on fossil fuels than we could save long term if we invested in green energy? How expensive is it to ignore climate change and deal with the fallout from historic droughts and mega storms?

We need to stop being so short-sighted that we cannot see the benefits of living in a well-educated and healthy society. These aren’t costs, they are investments in America.

Jim Patnoudes, Joliet

No one asking Clinton how to prevent a repeat of Benghazi • BRAZILE

Continued from page 35 though there is no such position. If this were a serious investigation of Benghazi, it would at some point ask how we could make our U.S. embassies overseas more secure – probing Clinton for her experience and input on how to better accomplish that.

The history of the Republicans with regard to both Libya and Benghazi is not a proud one. Libya today is a country with two contesting governments, while militias, al Qaeda and ISIS roam almost at will throughout the nation.

Obama was considering U.S. action in Libya that would have stopped Libya from descending into a failed state. However, Gowdy, along with his fellow Repub-

licans, supported a resolution to prevent a military presence that many argued was needed to avoid the chaos that now exists.

Prominent Republicans said nothing about security needs at Benghazi before the attack. Arizona Sen. John McCain met personally with Ambassador Christopher Stevens just weeks before the fatal attack. In that meeting, Stevens discussed security, but McCain said nothing about that at the time. McCain said he cannot remember specifics of the discussion, or if he brought any concerns Stevens had about security to the attention of Congress.

What this boils down to is that until Republican leaders in Congress saw Benghazi as a way to bring down Clinton’s poll numbers, they were silent on the subject of

security. Rep. John Larson, D-Conn., told McClatchy newspapers, “There should always be more oversight by Congress, but most importantly there should have been funding to deal with embassy security.” Larson, who is on the House Armed Services Committee, is effectively acknowledging that when congressional oversight may have prevented Benghazi, Congress was absent.

A number of Republicans in positions to know have acknowledged that the committee is merely a vehicle to attack Clinton. Gowdy’s response to them was to “shut up.”

Gowdy opened the hearing, saying he was seeking an impartial investigation, and in the next breath attacked the Democrats on the committee. His attack reminds me of a charge made

against Winston Churchill who replied, “I should think it was hardly possible to state the opposite of the truth with more precision.”

Gowdy, attempting to downplay Republicans’ months-long press releases about Clinton’s emails, said to Clinton, “Your emails are no more or less important than anyone else’s.”

As for Clinton not being singled out, Rep. Cummings said to her: “Madame Secretary, you are sitting here by yourself. The secretary of defense is not on your left, and the director of the CIA is not on your right.”

An early questioner was clearly suspicious that Clinton had fewer emails on Benghazi than other subjects. Had the congresswoman studied Clinton’s emails in her possession more closely, she would have known

Clinton did not use email while at work, but only in the evening, from her home.

That meant most of Clinton’s work was conducted without emails during the day.

So it went. No one asked Clinton how, based on her experience, we can avoid a repeat of a Benghazi. Secretary Clinton in previous interviews, testimony and in her book, has taken responsibility for the failure to fully address the security challenges U.S. personnel faced in Libya and elsewhere. But this committee isn’t about Benghazi; it’s about “getting Clinton.”

To the Editor: At the Oct. 14 school district meeting to discuss bullying, a Mr. Robert Hernandez was quoted in the article “Joliet residents speak about bullying at District 86 meeting” that was in the Thursday, Oct. 15, 2015, edition of The Herald-News as saying he would “Work this community up.”

He continued: “If you turn your backs on them, I will excite this community. ... We will make this board listen. Make this board take action.”

Hmm. That sounds like a threat, Mr. Hernandez. In fact, it sounds a lot like ... bullying.

adding to the strife between people and government, all of which provided fertile breeding ground for ISIS. The awful weather stayed for years so that the prolonged lack of harvest emptied the seed supply for specific crops that grow in that arid region. What now for agriculture in Syria?

God helps those who help themselves! Some decades ago, Norway began a unique project which stores seeds of all plants known to man in case of any tragedy that would wipe out all vegetation. Norway, home of the Nobel Peace Prize and known for its assertive policy regarding climate change, perhaps can restart crops in Syria with the help of the seed vaults.

In addition to Norway, most nations are seriously fighting climate change, even countries where it would not be expected. Grassroots protests in India during the past 5 years prevented construction of some coal power plants, and between 2001 and 2010, China has been closing as many coal-fired power plants as currently exist in the entire country of Spain.

Marist’s defense swarms Joliet Catholic’s offense Friday at Memorial Stadium in Joliet. The Hilltoppers defeated the Red Hawks, 35-28. seed, Bolingbrook (5-4) 27th and Minooka (5-4) 31st in 8A. Lincoln-Way East (7-2) is No. 14 and Plainfield North (6-3) is No. 22 in 7A. The 8A and 7A classes are seeded 1 through 32.

In the other six classes, two 16-team geographic brackets are in place. Lemont (8-1) is No. 3 in the south bracket of 6A. In 5A, Joliet Catholic (8-1) is No. 3 in the north and Lincoln-Way West (72) is No. 7 in the south.

Coal City (5-4) is No. 15 in the north bracket of 4A, while Wilmington (9-0) is No. 1 in the north bracket of 3A. First-round games will be played Friday night or Saturday. Dates and times will be announced no later than Monday.

Here is a closer look:

CLASS 8A

First-round games include No. 26 Plainfield South at No. 7 Barrington (8-1), No. 27 Bolingbrook at No. 6 Naperville Central (8-1) and No. 31 Minooka at No. 2 Huntley (9-0).

Barrington has averaged nearly 40 points a game but has held only one opponent below 18 points. So while South’s strong

defense will be tested, the Cougars’ offense may be able to help the cause.

If South wins, the winner of the East Suburban Catholic bowl between Notre Dame and Marist would be the next opponent.

Bolingbrook will face an opponent in Naperville Central that believes in defense. No opponent has scored more than 15 points. Central’s signature win is a 34-14 triumph over otherwise unbeaten Batavia.

If Bolingbrook can ride the momentum of beating H-F and move on, the Curie-Gurnee Warren winner would be up in Round 2.

In Huntley, Minooka will face a foe that averages more than 41 points and beat Lincoln-Way Central, 28-12, in Week 1. The Oswego-Belleville East winner would be next for the Indians.

CLASS 7A

No. 22 Plainfield North (6-3) will visit No. 11 Maine South in the opening round as the Week 9 loss to Minooka hurts the Tigers’ cause. Maine South, always potent, lost only to Montini and Loyola in Weeks 1 and 2 and now

Week 9 mattered.

And how.

The IHSA announced Saturday the 256-team field, seeds and first-round pairings for the annual high school football postseason extravaganza.

What happened in Week 9 was remarkable from a Joliet area standpoint. Bolingbrook, coming off a 33-16 loss to Lockport in Week 8, shocked No. 1-ranked Homewood-Flossmoor, 22-21, Friday night to finish 5-4 and earn its way into the playoffs.

Then there’s Minooka. The Indians (5-4) beat playoff-bound Plainfield North, 16-14, a week after North knocked off Oswego, which again wound up the Southwest Prairie champion.

The thing is, if history had been an indicator, Minooka did not appear to have enough playoff points (opponent victories) to get in at 5-4. But this season is an entity unto itself. Minooka is in the 32-team Class 8A field as the No. 31 seed.

The Indians finished with 35 playoff points. All 5-4 teams with 35 points statewide are in except for Toledo Cumberland.

That means Lockport’s victory over Joliet West on Friday not only knocked out the Tigers, it provided Minooka with the final playoff point it needed to qualify because the Porters were one of two nonconference foes on the Indians’ schedule.

In all, 10 schools that finished 5-4 did not make the field, a group that includes Dwight.

The other hot item from an area perspective was whether Lincoln-Way West would play in Class 6A or 5A. It winds up being the 16-team south bracket in 5A. The Warriors are the largest 5A qualifier, while Peoria Notre Dame is the smallest in 6A. That does not include Montini and Sacred Heart-Griffin, which were moved up to 6A because of the IHSA’s success adjustment.

Had those two still been in 5A, Lincoln-Way West would have been in 6A. All of that being said, the breakdown for this area has Plainfield South (5-4) as the 26th

FOOTBALL: MORRIS 40, LASALLE-PERU 0

Morris ends season with rout

By ROB OESTERLE

roesterle@shawmedia.com LaSALLE – Coming into Friday night’s game against LaSalle-Peru, the Morris football team was playing for pride. The Redskins came in with a 3-5 record and the playoffs were not a possibility.

After a steady rain fell during most of the sophomore game, which Morris won, 200, the Redskins went out and doubled up the sophomore team, using a steady diet of power running and a punishing defense to end the season with a 40-0 victory and a 4-5 record.

“I couldn’t be prouder of the kids,” Morris coach Alan Thorson said. “This might be the most bittersweet victory I have ever had as a coach. I know in my heart that this is a good football team, and the way they came out and showed that tonight speaks a lot about their character.”

The Redskins were a little banged up coming into the game, as starting safety Michael Cryder and starting offensive lineman Brennan Goff were out. But their replacements stepped in and made a difference.

With Cryder out, regular cornerback Payton Bruyn moved to safety and junior

Dan Voitik for Shaw Media

Michael Gerischer ran for 83 yards and a touchdown in Morris’ 40-0 win Friday over LaSalle-Peru in LaSalle.

Austin Dearing took Bruyn’s spot at corner.

With Goff out of the lineup, fellow sophomore Nathan Korte started in his place on the offensive line, and the Redskins began a methodical march to the end zone. Running out of the T formation with running backs Michael Gerischer, Kegan Sobol and Michael Feeney behind quar-

terback Ricky Del Favero, who was getting his first start of the season, the Redskins ran the ball on all eight plays of the drive, with Sobol scoring on a 22-yard run. Dallas Hastings added the extra point kick, and the Redskins took a 7-0 lead.

Morris’ defense did not allow another first down until it owned a 40-0 lead in the fourth

quarter.

Late in the first quarter, Morris took over at the Cavs’ 40 after a 10-yard punt return.

On first down, Del Favero faked a handoff, and tight end Delaney Stutzki got behind the L-P defense. Del Favero hit the wide open Stutzki near the 20-yard line and Stutzki ran it in for a 40-yard touchdown and the 13-0 lead.

After another LaSalle-Peru punt, Morris started at the L-P 41. Five plays later, Del Favero faked another handoff and ran a bootleg the other way, avoiding a tackler in the backfield and running 10 yards for another touchdown.

Luis Luna’s kick made it 20-0 with 7:05 to play until halftime. The Morris defense forced another punt, and Dearing returned it 16 yards to the L-P 32. On the first play, Tommy Balentine ran for a 14yard gain, and a personal foul on L-P moved the ball to the 8. Another run lost six yards, and a false start put it back on the 19.

After a two-yard run by Will Ringer, Del Favero threw deep to Jake Webb, who outjumped the L-P defender in the end zone for a 17-yard touchdown and a 26-0 lead, which Morris took into halftime.

Morris got the second-half kickoff, and L-P attempted an onside kick that went out of bounds, setting Morris up at its own 43.

Sobol, who finished with a team-high 103 yards on nine carries, scored from 24 yards out for a 33-0 lead, and the Redskins capped the scoring when Gerischer (12 carries, 83 yards) scored from nine yards out on the next drive.

FOOTBALL: COAL CITY 28, SENECA 6

Coal City runs past Seneca for fifth victory

By MARK JOHNSON Shaw Media Correspondent SENECA – Coal City took care of business Friday night, defeating Seneca, 28-6, in Interstate Eight Conference crossover football to become playoff eligible.

Coal City (5-4) had to await official announcement of the playoff pairings Saturday night to be sure of its fate.

The Coalers entered Week 9 with 37 opponents’ wins, and will face No. 2 Marengo (9-0) on the road in the first round.

“I think we’re good with points,” Coal City coach Len-

ny Onsen said. “A 5-4 team, you know your draw, what it’s going to be. We put ourselves in this boat.’ ” Earning their fifth win to become playoff eligible remained in doubt early.

Seneca’s Logan Pifer followed up a 57-yard run with a 2-yard touchdown to give the Fighting Irish the lead after a minute and a half.

An injury to the Coalers’ usual workhorse, Joe Starkey, opened the door for senior Mark Norton to get eight carries on their opening series. He picked up three first downs before scoring a 1-yard

touchdown.

Norton, more typically used as a lead blocker, added a two-point conversion run for what would prove to be the winning points at the 6:47 mark of the first quarter.

“I was expecting [the workload]. Our first back went down last week,” Norton said.

“The line did a good job of opening up holes wide open.

Just hit the hole hard and follow them.”

Danny Kroeger’s interception of the first Seneca pass attempt of the game early in the second quarter led to a Nick Micetich 4-yard touch-

down run on a quarterback keeper. Seneca fumbled on its first play of the next drive, with Coal City’s Junior Arias recovering, and a Norton 7-yard touchdown run gave the Coalers a 22-7 halftime lead. The score remained that way until Coal City’s Nick Hayden added a late 7-yard touchdown run.

Seneca, which had another lost fumble recovered by Coal City’s Alec Leasure in the first quarter, rushed for 199 yards and had 11 first downs, but the early turnovers dashed hopes for an upset. The Irish also had a pair

of second-half drives extend deep into Coaler territory before stalling.

“We knew coming in that we had to shrink the game up. We had to keep hold of the ball, and obviously not turn it over,” Seneca coach Ted O’Boyle said. “We weren’t good enough to be able to overcome stuff like that.”

Pifer totaled 127 rushing yards and also had an interception he returned 49 yards for the Irish (2-7).

Coal City now has won three straight games and 11 of the past 12 in the series with the Irish.

Lockport’s Collin Van Lonkhuyzen makes the catch Friday in front of Joliet West’s Marcus Williams in Lockport. The Tigers fell to the Porters, 35-6.

FOOTBALL: LOCKPORT 35, JOLIET WEST 6

Lockport spoils Joliet West’s playoff hopes

By JEFF DeGRAW Shaw Media Correspondent LOCKPORT – Joliet West traveled to Lockport on Friday in search of its fifth victory and a spot in the playoffs.

The Porters had other ideas, however, as they burst the Tigers’ bubble with a 35-6 SouthWest Suburban Blue victory. It was also the last SWSC game for the Tigers, as they will move to the Southwest Prairie Conference next fall.

The Porters (4-5, 4-3) scored on their first two possessions and that was all they needed on the rainy, windy evening.

The Tigers (4-5, 2-5) put together a nine-play drive to start the game, but had to punt, and Lockport took over on its 30yard line.

On fourth-and-6 from the West 40, Porters junior quarterback Ben Davis hit Patrick Cooper with a 40-yard catch and run to put the Porters up 7-0 with 4:06 left in the first quarter.

Lockport came right back on its next possession when Matt Skobel scored from a yard

out after a seven-play drive for a 14-0 lead early in the second quarter.

Cooper scored again on a 9-yard pass from Davis with a second left in the half to make 21-0 at the break. Cooper, a junior receiver, ended with 85 yards on three receptions.

“I’m really happy to end the season on a high note, especially for our seniors,” Cooper said. “This will really boost my confidence for next season, and Ben (Davis) and I have built some good chemistry. This team has played well the second half of the season.”

Lockport’s defense limited the Tigers to 26 yards rushing on 10 carries in the first half.

“This is a great feeling to win, but also sad because it is over,” said Ryan Kelley, a senior leader on the Lockport defense. “The best thing about this season is being on the field with all of my teammates.

These last few weeks really showed what kind of team we really had, and I’m so proud to have been a part of it.”

The Porters’ versatile Deiondre Taylor scored on a

6-yard run to open the second half as Lockport marched 78 yards on the opening drive.

Taylor also threw a 28-yard pass to Colin Van Lonkhuyzen before his touchdown run.

Taylor finished his final Lockport game with 53 yards rushing on nine attempts, a reception for 16 yards and one completion for 28 yards.

On the next possession, Lockport’s Derrius Rodgers intercepted a Jaxon Aubry pass and returned it 65 yards for a touchdown to put the Porters up, 35-0, with 3:41 left in the third quarter.

After West had blocked a Lockport punt, it got on the board with 9:41 remaining as Juwann McBee scored from four yards out.

“Our seniors showed so much leadership this season.

They lead the charge and showed that this team has toughness and character,” Lockport coach Dan Starkey said. “It was great to finish they way we did. Our entire program came a long way, and I’m proud of everyone, and our future looks great.”

HARVEY – Thornton flashed plenty of speed during a 54-19 SouthWest Suburban Red win Friday over Lincoln-Way Central.

The loss eliminated the Knights (4-5, 3-4) from playoff consideration. It marks the fourth time in the past five seasons the Knights have finished sub-.500. That hadn’t happened since the early 1990s.

“I don’t want one game to define our season,” Central coach Jeremy Cordell said. “Their work ethic stands out to me. These guys worked very hard and that says a lot about this group.”

It’s a group that included 28 seniors, many of them starters on offense.

“I am really proud of this group,” Cordell said. “I saw a ton of progress from the summer until now. Guys stepped up in ways we didn’t think they would. We had a lot of senior leadership on the offensive side of the ball. And our defense is pretty young, so we’re excited about that.”

Central was productive on its first two drives but netted only three points.

The Knights’ first drive stalled at the Wildcats’ 2-yard line, but Brock Krohe hit a 20-yard field goal to give the visitors a 3-0 lead with 6:46 left in the first quarter.

Thornton (8-1, 6-1) scored the next 28 points to take control.

Central quarterback Austin Strilko accounted for two scores. He ran 2 yards for a touchdown in the second quarter and hit Nolan Hayes from 11 yards out in the third quarter.

Thornton totaled 416 yards of offense and scored seven touchdowns. The Knights ran 13 more plays

“There’s no question they are a good football team and very athletic, especially on the offensive side,” Cordell said of the Wildcats. “I thought they picked their poison and did what they wanted to do. We had a hard time stopping them and as a defensive coach, that’s hard.”

Senior Dan Eber led the Knights with 43 yards rushing on 10 carries. Strilko, also a senior, completed 10 of his 16 passes for 134 yards and a touchdown.

Senior John Ramos caught three passes for 45 yards. Two of those catches were highlight-reel plays.

The first was a one-handed grab on a post pattern down the middle of the field. The other was a tip-toe along the sideline just before the end of the half.

FOOTBALL: STAGG 49, JOLIET CENTRAL 12

Joliet Central falls to Stagg in season finale

By LARRY LINDHOLM Shaw Media Correspondent PALOS HILLS – Joliet Central’s sixth straight winless season ended with a 49-12 SouthWest Suburban Blue loss to Stagg on Friday night.

The Steelmen’s touchdowns came on a 5-yard pass from Zach Wisneski to Jomarre McNair with 10:08 left in the second quarter and a 12-yard pass from Wisneski to Kamren Smith on the final play of the third quarter.

Smith finished the night with 40 receiving yards, and Malek Harden rushed for 77 yards for Central (0-9, 0-7). Herbert Hughes rushed for 210 yards on only 10 carries for Stagg (27, 1-6).

Smith has been playing hurt much of the year.

“He took extra time in the training room and tonight we wanted to get him that touchdown for all his hard work,” Steelmen coach Brett Boyter said.

After Wisneski’s touchdown pass to McNair brought the Steelmen within 14-6, Stagg scored the next 35 points to invoke the running clock.

“All week in practice, we reminded the team of who their good runner was,” Boyter said of Hughes. “We knew to win we would have to stop him. We did not do a very good job of that, but give credit to his offensive line tonight, also.”

On the positive side for Central, the Steelmen did not turn the ball over and forced three fumbles.

“We [coaches] told them to go to the ball and that’s what they did,” Boyter said.

Despite the continuation of the long losing streak, Boyter said, “It was an honor to coach these guys.

They gutted it out in practice and gutted it out on the game field. Coaching kids who love the game and give it their all has been very good.”

He told the team afterward: “Adversity won’t stop you from success in life, you overcome it. Bigger and better things are there for you.”

Looking ahead to next season, when the Steelmen will be in the Southwest Prairie Conference, Boyter said, “The new conference is a good thing. We play nine weeks, but it is the nine months in the weight room that will make a difference next year.”

Joliet Catholic’s Michael Johnson Jr. dives forward for a few additional yards Friday against Marist at Memorial Stadium in Joliet. The Hilltoppers defeated the Red Hawks, 35-28.

FOOTBALL: JOLIET CATHOLIC 35, MARIST 28

Healthier JCA claims share of ESCC title

By DICK GOSS dgoss@shamedia.com JOLIET – Joliet Catholic Academy celebrated the return of four of its wounded players Friday with a 35-28 East Suburban Catholic victory over Marist at Joliet Memorial Stadium.

The win gives the Hilltoppers (81, 6-1) a share of the ESCC title with Notre Dame and sends them into the Class 5A playoffs with renewed confidence from playing with something close to a full deck.

Guard Shane Raber and wingback Harry Davis returned on the offensive side of the ball, and linebackers Jordan Bates and Brad Krisch were back for the defense. Bates and Davis endured especially long absences.

Bates hadn’t played since the season opener against Providence and Davis fractured his ankle in the first quarter in Week 3.

Contributions from all were needed as playoff-bound Marist (5-4, 4-3) gave JCA all it wanted.

In fact, it was tied 21-21 with less than 5 minutes remaining when Hilltoppers safety Bill Rotnicki intercepted Brendan Skalitzky’s pass over the middle and returned it 19 yards to the JCA 48.

Michael Johnson ignited a touch-

down march with 17- and 14-yard runs and then scored the go-ahead touchdown from 3 yards out. Zach Lukasik’s fourth of five conversion kicks made it 28-21.

Lukasik, who sacked Skalitzky on the play preceding Rotnicki’s pick, sacked him again to help set up a fourth-and-16 on the JCA 17. Marist tried a multi-lateral play, and before it was over, JCA safety Patrick Tippet scooped up the ball and took it 4 yards for the clinching score with 1:33 to go.

“That was nice to get two sacks at critical times in the fourth quarter,” Lukasik said. “Then on that crazy play where we scored, all I remember is the ball winding up 15 yards back down the field and it hadn’t touched the ground until finally Tippet scooped it up and scored.”

At that, Marist came back with a touchdown pass with 25 seconds remaining, but the ensuing onside kick attempt failed, and it was over.

“It was really nice to have our original starters on both sides of the ball,” Lukasik said. “I’m remembering the way it was for the Providence game.”

Skalitzky completed 21 of 37 passes for 324 yards and four touchdowns.

“The biggest problem for our defense was they are a short-passing team,” Lukasik said. “Our big thing

at practice was to work on shallow routes and get everyone to the ball.”

With Davis back, JCA went with Michael Johnson, normally a wingback, in a tailback-like position, with Davis and Ke’Von Johnson at the wings. Michael Johnson rushed for 143 yards in 23 carries and scored twice. Davis chipped in 65 yards in 10 carries and scored once. Ke’Von Johnson contributed 76 in nine carries and caught an 80-yard touchdown pass from Cade Earl.

“We wanted to keep a little surprise for everybody with Michael giving a look at tailback,” Davis said with a smile. “This was our first time using it. We’ll get used to it.”

As for being on the field after watching so many games from the sideline, Davis said. “It did feel good to be back.

I feel like I’m 100 percent. I have to get back at it and get ready for next week.”

“We got our guys back,” JCA coach Dan Sharp said. “We needed them.

Marist is a very good team. The games they lost were tough ones. Between that and the [rainy] weather, we knew it would be tough.

“Regardless, we have to quit shooting ourselves in the foot like we did again tonight. Penalties to kill drives, jumping offside on fourth down, those things are killing us.”

Carcerano boots Bolingbrook past H-F, into playoffs SUBMITTED REPORTS FLOSSMOOR – After Bolingbrook committed seven turnovers and lost to Lockport, 33-16, in Week 8, the Raiders were on the brink of missing the playoffs for the first time since 1991.

All that remained on the schedule was a visit to No 1-ranked Homewood-Floss-

Bolingbrook needed to win or it was over.

The improbable happened.

Gino Carcerano kicked a 33yard field goal with 12.6 seconds left Friday night to give the Raiders a stunning 22-21 SouthWest Suburban Blue victory.

FRANKFORT – Lincoln-Way North won the SouthWest Suburban Conference Red championship Friday with a 28-21 overtime win over Lincoln-Way West.

The Phoenix used a 38-yard hookand-ladder play that started with a pass from quarterback Jake Arthur to Drew Slager.

Slager then lateraled to receiver Jaylin Branch, who took the ball down the sideline for a touchdown to cut the Warriors’ lead to 21-19 with 1:35 to play in the fourth quarter. Then Slager caught the game-tying two-point conversion pass.

North (9-0, 7-0) scored first in overtime when Arthur hit a diving Slager with a 10-yard touchdown pass. The Phoenix held the Warriors (7-2, 5-2) on defense to secure the win.

“It was a good game,” West coach Dave Ernst said. “They’re a great team. They have some big-play guys who made some plays there at the end. Offensively, we had a chance to run the clock out at the end, but we couldn’t get it done.”

The Warriors and Phoenix both qualify for the playoffs.

“We have to forget about this one and move on,” Ernst said. “Our goal

10:39 to play. Slager missed the extra point.

The teams traded possessions before West took over on offense on its 20 with 6:41 to play in the fourth quarter. West moved the ball on the ground with Montalvo to its 46 before punting the ball away. The Warriors took 4:11 off the clock on the drive.

North coach George Czart said the Phoenix, who are playing their last season of football because the school will close at the end of the school year, are used to overcoming deficits.

“It’s been our M.O. to be down in big games this year, but we stay positive and our coaches work on solving the problem,” Czart said. “Our kids are resilient. They don’t quit. They have a tough mettle about them.”

Czart, like Ernst, said his team will put this game behind them and get ready for the playoffs.

“We’re closing one book,” Czart said. “We opened the school, and we started 0-9. We’re closing the school, and we finish the regular season 9-0.

Now we have to take it one game at a time. It’s a new game, and a new season.”

Montalvo finished with 120 yards on 32 carries for West while Lowman completed 10 of 21 passes for 78 yards and two touchdowns. Slager scored three touchdowns for North.

FOOTBALL: MINOOKA 16, PLAINFIELD NORTH 14

Minooka edges Plainfield N. for 5th win

By CURT HERRON cherron@shawmedia.com MINOOKA – One team was trying to keep alive its hopes of reaching the playoffs. The other was looking for a share of a conference title and a firstround home playoff game.

Although a fifth victory didn’t guarantee anything, that served as ample motivation for Minooka in its 16-14 Southwest Prairie Conference win over Plainfield North on Friday.

The Indians (5-4, 3-4) took control of a 7-7 contest by scoring twice early in the final quarter and holding off a late challenge by the Tigers (6-3, 5-2), who were looking to share the SPC title with Oswego, whom they defeated last week.

“Our guys were obviously playing for something,” Indians coach Paul Forsythe said. “The kids played well against a six-win team that beat the champs last week. Our team defense was really good and offensively we did just enough. We have a really good senior group, and they came out and gave everything that they had, and it showed.”

Minooka, which had lost three straight and finished with 35 playoff points, moved in front for good at 13-7 with 10:30 left when Jaccor Blakney scored on a 1-yard run.

“We were looking forward to this game, and I knew that we had it in us,” Blakney said. “We may have lost to some other teams, but we’re a lot better than that, so we brought it tonight, and it showed. It was wet, then the rain stopped and it got windy and muddy, but we eventually got the hang of what we needed to do.”

John Patsch for Shaw Media

Minooka’s Adam Nelli and Kenneth Kirkland tackle Plainfield North’s JD Ekowa on Friday in Minooka. The Tigers fell to the Indians, 16-14.

On North’s ensuing series, Blake Parzych hit JD Ekowa as he was throwing a pass, and Matt Brozovich snared the interception and returned it to the Tigers’ 29. Seven plays later, Brennan Loughran made a 26-yard field goal to put the Indians up 16-7 with 6:41 left.

“We came into this game acting like it was our last one, so we played like it was all on the line, and it made us play that much better,” Parzych said. “In the past three games we’ve had a hard time getting both sides of the ball working together, but tonight

we played together and that’s how we got the ‘W.’ ” The Tigers closed to within 16-14 with 2:01 remaining after Ekowa (11 of 33 passing, 150 yards; 13 carries, 79 yards) tossed a 7-yard pass to Ryan Krzystofiak. North got the ball back in the final half minute, but only reached Minooka’s 36-yard line.

“That was a huge win,” Brozovich said. “It was basically win or go home, and we don’t really know if we’re in or out yet. We’ve had a hard time getting the offense and the defense jelling at the same time. But today we were able

to put both sides of the ball to work.

Our offense was moving the ball, and we were doing what we do.”

Minooka took a 7-0 lead with 18 seconds left in the first quarter when John Carnagio (20 of 32 passing, 257 yards) tossed a 20-yard pass to Isaiah Hill (nine catches, 112 yards). North tied it with 5:00 left in the third quarter when Ekowa threw a 19-yard strike to Zach Jarosz.

Right after that tying score, North’s Dillon McCarthy picked off a pass at Minooka’s 34, but the Tigers quickly turned the ball over on downs.

FOOTBALL: PLAINFIELD EAST 52, PLAINFIELD CENTRAL 19

Plainfield East runs over Plainfield Central in finale

By KEVIN RYAN Shaw Media Correspondent PLAINFIELD – Going into the final week while out of the playoff hunt, one of the only things left on the line is pride.

Despite the rain and muddy field conditions Friday, Plainfield East showed how much pride it still had by beating District 202 and Southwest Prairie Conference rival Plainfield Central, 52-19, Friday night.

“We played hard and our kids practiced hard all week,”

East coach Mike Romeli said.

“We didn’t know what we were getting into, but our seniors continued to lead, and they did a great job tonight.”

The Bengals (4-5, 4-3) began the rout of the Wildcats (0-9, 0-7) when senior quarterback Matt Mazurkiewicz (6 of 14 passing, 109 yards) found Dylan Koch for a 61-yard gain on East’s first drive. A couple of plays later, Mazurkiewicz capped the seven-play drive with a 9-yard touchdown pass to DJ Donofrio for a 6-0 lead.

In the second quarter, the

Bengals poured the points on Central, even as the rain continued to fall. East found the end zone four times, all on running plays. Jalen Hutt scored from 52 yards out, DJ Donofrio on a 2-yard run and Jeremy Reitz from 7 and 17 yards.

Central running back Lovelle Houston scored on a 5-yard run, making it 31-6 at halftime. “ [Reitz] did a good job,” Romeli said. “Our offensive line did a good job in opening up holes for him.”

“Big holes tonight,” Reitz said, crediting his offensive line. “A lot of opportunities, and I want to say thank to my linemen for that.”

To begin the second half, the Bengals converted two Wildcats’ turnovers into touchdowns to make it 45-6.

“It’s little things that separate 0-9 teams from 9-0 teams,” Central coach John Jackson said. “We shot ourselves in the foot, and we don’t even have a foot to shoot anymore.”

The Wildcats got on the

board two more times before their season came to an end.

Trevor Ervin ran it in from 18 yards out, and quarterback Cameron Cercone hit Nate Graves for a 37-yard touchdown as time expired.

By night’s end, both coaches were proud of their seniors.

“The seniors have won a lot of games here,” Romeli said. “They did a good job and continued to fight.”

“The seniors played well and they didn’t quit on me,” Jackson said. “I’m proud of them.”

prepared, but we didn’t have enough execution.”

Oswego’s Freddy Walton intercepted Howarth at the Plainfield 21, and Chad Marsh scored on the first play from scrimmage to give Oswego a 21-7 lead with 1:45 to play in the third quarter. Midway through the fourth quarter, the Panthers added on as Marsh scored on a 1-yard run.

The rain, which did not let up until the fourth quarter, created sloppy field conditions that resulted in multiple turnovers for both teams.

South’s Kevin Valentine was the first to intercept Frank early in the game, and Mitchell Ganassin grabbed one just before halftime. But the Cougars also lost two fumbles and Howarth was intercepted twice in the second half.

With the help of Minooka’s win over Plainfield North, Oswego won its fifth consecutive SPC championship with a 6-1 record. South tied Plainfield North for second at 5-2.

FOOTBALL: WILMINGTON 42, MANTENO 35

Hawkins, Weaver lead Wilmington past Manteno

By DRAKE SKLEBA Shaw Media Correspondent WILMINGTON – In a battle between two undefeated Interstate Eight champions, Wilmington outlasted Manteno, 4235, on Friday to claim its 23rd consecutive victory.

For the defending Class 3A champion Wildcats (9-0), running backs Nick Hawkins and Owen Weaver led the attack on a rainy night.

Hawkins went 71 yards to give the Wildcats a 35-28 lead with 10:11 left. James Cox recovered a Manteno fumble with 9:57 left, and Weaver scored his second touchdown from 40 yards. After Alex Hatten’s sixth extra point, Wilmington led, 42-28.

With 7:53 left, Logan Duvall (20 carries, 90 yards), scored his third touchdown to bring Manteno (8-1) within 42-35.

Quarterback Gavin Zimbelman completed 8 of his 20 passes for 212 yards, with 192 com-

ing in the second half.

With a minute to go, Manteno had a third-and-2 at the Wildcats’ 16-yard line. Jake Capwell batted down a Zimbelman pass and then on fourth down, the entire Wildcat defense stuffed Zimbelman on a quarterback keeper to effectively end it.

“This was a great win for us against a very good Manteno team,” Capwell said. “We really shut them down in the first half. We made some mistakes to get them going in the second half. I was able to read Zimbelman and get my hand up on the third down pass.

It was awesome the way the whole defense stuffed him on the sneak to end the game.”

After Manteno struck first on a 12-yard run by Duvall with 10:37 in the first quarter, the opening half belonged to the I-8 Small champion Wilmington’s defense. Brett McWilliams’ first of two sacks forced a Manteno punt, which

“We really played outstanding defense against an outstanding offensive team in the first half. I am really proud of the fact that we have had another perfect regular season and have won 23 consecutive games. We have represented our school and our community well.”

Brett McWilliams, Wilmington football player led to Hawkins’ first touchdown from 21 yards out to tie it at 7 with 7:59 in the half.

Bailey Boswell’s hit separated the ball from Zimbelman and into the hands of Sam Jones in the end zone for a touchdown. With a minute to go in the half, Hawkins scored on fourth-and-goal from the 1 for a 21-7 Wildcat lead.

Steve Smock’s pick of Zimbelman put the finishing touches on the first-half defensive effort. Zimbelman, who entered with 1,739 yards and 23 touchdowns, completed one first-half pass for 20 yards.

“We really played outstand-

ing defense against an outstanding offensive team in the first half,” McWilliams said. “I am really proud of the fact that we have had another perfect regular season and have won 23 consecutive games. We have represented our school and our community well.”

Hawkins had 172 yards on 26 carries and scored three touchdowns, while Weaver rushed for 109 of his 141 yards in the second half, including two 40-yard scoring runs.

“We hit. They hit. It was a real battle and we came out on top,” Weaver said. “The line was outstanding again.”

“It was a great game for us.

We all made some big plays that contributed to this win,” Hawkins said. “It was a great atmosphere between two great teams, and we came out on top.”

One year ago, the Wildcats and Panthers entered this game with identical 8-0 marks, and Wilmington came out on top, 21-7.

“What a great football game between two great football teams,” Wildcats coach Jeff Reents said. “It truly is a shame someone had to lose.

Manteno’s offense is unbelievable. Our defense really stepped up in the first half.

“We really ran the ball well with Nick and Owen. We made the big stop at the end to get this victory. This is a tough one for both of us to bounce back from, with the playoffs next week. It’s great to have a Week 9 battle of unbeaten teams but it really drains you emotionally.”

OSWEGO – Plainfield South ended the regular season with a 28-7 Southwest Prairie Conference loss Friday against Oswego.

Even though the Cougars missed a shot at a share of the SPC title, they left the field feeling a 5-4 record with 43 playoff points would be enough to earn a spot in the Class 8A playoffs.

“I think we’ve got a better than average chance to get in, but we’re going to find out,” Plainfield South coach Ken Bublitz said. “I just hope for these kids’ sake because they played their tails off. Now we’ll just have to see.”

South received the opening kickoff but fumbled on its first play from scrimmage to set the tone for the night.

Oswego responded with its Steven Buyansky for Shaw Media first touchdown – a 3-yard Plainfield South running back Jake Maher breaks a tackle to gain more quarterback sneak from Steyards Friday in South’s 28-7 loss to Oswego. ven Frank – and the Panthers

went ahead 14-0 early in the second quarter.

The Cougars put together a 13-play drive to get on the scoreboard and came up big on a fourth-and-12 situation when quarterback Jackson Howarth found Austin Deal for a 21-yard gain to the Oswego 12. Two plays later, Howarth threw a 14-yard touchdown pass to Jake Portz.

Enrique Carbajal’s extra point made it 14-7.

“We got out to a slow start, but then we responded to it,” Bublitz said. “We had enough plays to get it close at halftime, and what we needed to do in the third quarter was find a way to get control and get momentum going our way, and we just couldn’t do that.

“Credit Oswego. They made plays when they needed to, and we just didn’t make enough plays. I really liked what our kids brought to the table, and I was very impressed with how the kids prepared this week. We were

COLLEGE FOOTBALL: ST. FRANCIS 35, LINDENWOOD-BELLEVILLE 34

Magee twins help USF survive

By DICK GOSS dgoss@shawmedia.com JOLIET – The Magee twins, both Plainfield South graduates, were hard at work Saturday afternoon, and University of St Francis needed every ounce of their energy John Magee rushed 25 times for 146 yards and two touchdowns, and caught four passes for 38 yards to lead the Saints to a wild 35-34 nonconference victory over Lindenwood-Belleville at Joliet Memorial Stadium.

“John Magee is pretty good,” USF coach Joe Curry said with a smile. “I think he got mad after he fumbled in the first half, and he wanted to make up for it.”

Of course, if not for Sheldon Magee’s 59-yard touchdown catch and run with 12:49 left that extended USF’s lead to 28-20, the outcome might have been different.

“God is good,” Sheldon explained his touchdown. “Anything can happen. That’s why every play matters.”

Sheldon, who caught two passes for 73 yards in all, had a defender on him deep down the right sideline. He went up over the coverage, caught the throw from quarterback Don Butkus, stayed inbounds and kept his balance before turning on the jets and racing to the end zone.

“Sheldon kept asking me to run that play,” Curry said.

“He kept saying, ‘Bubble and go, bubble and go. I’ve got it.’

Then after I finally did call it and it worked, he came up to me and said, ‘I told you so.’ ” “Great players make great plays,” John Magee said.

“Sheldon’s touchdown really helped us. It was huge. Big plays like that deflate the other team.”

John Magee’s contributions were a day-long ordeal.

He scored on runs of 5 yards in the first quarter and 12 tough yards midway through the fourth quarter to account for St. Francis’ first and last points. He also gained 14 yards on a huge third-and-3 play late in the game, after which the

Saints were able to run out the clock and preserve the victory.

“I feel good. It’s nice to help the team,” John said. “That’s the way you win games. You pound the rock, pound the rock.”

The defense, a staple all season for the Saints (6-2), played well early. Lineman Calvin Brayboy (Bolingbrook) had three sacks in the first half alone. He also forced a fumble and finished with eight tackles, including five solos.

Along the way, however, Lindenwood (2-5) recovered offensively and finished with 414 total yards, including 205 rushing, to USF’s 447 total. Two weeks ago, the Saints had the No. 1-ranked rushing defense in the NAIA. “It’s never easy,” Curry said. “Our guys fought hard, but they had our defense on the ropes. When that happens, we expect our offense to pick us up.

“If we stop the run, that’s when Brayboy and those guys up front can take a shot at the quarterback. That’s when

they’re at their best. But they [the Lynx] had us scrambling a bit.”

Butkus, who rushed for a touchdown and had a 41-yard run, completed 17 of 24 passes for 248 yards and two touchdowns – a 74-yarder to Adam Morrison, who broke through two potential tacklers just after making the catch, and the 59-yarder to Sheldon Magee.

The Saints grabbed a 14-0 lead early.

It was 14-7 at the half, and the only time St. Francis trailed was 20-14 late in the third quarter. However, the offense rode to the rescue.

“Our defense has had a lot of good games,” John Magee said. “They have bailed us out.”

This time the Magee twins and the rest of the offense were entrusted with making sure of the “W.” “It was good that our guys fought hard,” Curry said. “But like I told them, if we want to compete in the playoffs, this was not a playoff performance.”

FOOTBALL: PROVIDENCE 36, LAKE FOREST ACADEMY 6

Providence ends season with 30-point victory

By SCOTT EHLING Shaw Media Correspondent NEW LENOX – Heading into the last game of the year Friday, the message was simple from Providence Catholic coach Mark Coglianese to his team: Win for our seniors.

Wins have been hard to come by for the defending Class 7A champion Celtics.

However, the message was received loud and clear.

Senior running back Mike Markasovic totaled 172 yards from scrimmage (115 rushing, 37 passing and 20 receiving), scored two rushing touchdowns and added a 95-yard kickoff return for a touchdown to lead the Celtics to a 36-6 victory over nonconference foe Lake Forest Academy.

The Celtics (3-6) overcame three first-half turnovers and

finished with 340 yards of offense while limiting LFA to 188 total yards.

Celtics junior running back Richie Warfield rushed 13 times for 57 yards and a touchdown, and sophomore quarterback Caden Kalinowski hit 8 of 11 passes for 99 yards and a score. On special teams, senior Zach Pych blocked a field goal and a point-after try.

“We definitely wanted to come out and get a win,” Coglianese said. “We wanted to win for our seniors and try and get everybody in. We didn’t come out as strong as we wanted, but our kids came out focused in the second half and extended our lead.”

After a three-and-out by LFA to start, Providence went to its bag of tricks as it executed a double pass (Jared Drake to Markasovic to Nate Griffin)

for 37 yards. Five plays later, Warfield scored on a 5-yard run for a 7-0 lead.

“I’m happy for the senior class as they are able to go out on somewhat of a positive note,” Warfield said. “A lot of things did not go our way this season but sometimes that happens in life. We all learned how to face adversity.”

LFA (3-6) had a chance to score later in the second quarter, but Pych blocked a 39-yard field-goal attempt. Two plays later, Providence turned the ball over deep in Celtics’ territory.

Five plays later, Joseph scored on a 9-yard run, but Pych and senior linebacker Dan McDonald blocked the kick to leave it 7-6 with 45 seconds left in the half. Providence grabbed the momentum back as Markasovic took the

ensuing kickoff 95 yards for a touchdown and a 14-6 halftime lead.

“I was patient at first and then just saw a huge hole and just ran my [butt] off,” Markasovic said. “Tonight, we just wanted to come out on top. I’m happy. I have a smile on my face. I love these guys and they mean the world to me.”

After the Celtics’ first drive of the second half came up empty, Markasovic took over.

Replacing a banged-up Warfield, Markasovic finished a seven-play, 41-yard drive with an 11-yard touchdown run to extend the lead to 21-6 with 5:02 left in the third quarter.

After the Caxys’ next drive stalled to end the third quarter, Markasovic broke it wide open on the next play as his 84-yard touchdown run gave Providence a 28-6 lead.

FOOTBALL: OSWEGO EAST 27, ROMEOVILLE 0

Romeoville falls in finale to Oswego E.

By LAURA M. MEDINA Shaw Media Correspondent ROMEOVILLE – Romeoville dropped a 27-0 decision to Southwest Prairie Conference foe Oswego East on Friday night.

For the Spartans (1-8, 1-6), the loss was the last go-around for 10 seniors who were honored before the game. Meanwhile, the Wolves (6-3, 4-3) clinched a playoff berth.

“My guys showed character,” Romeoville coach Oliver Gibson said. “First, credit Oswego East.

They came out here, fought for a playoff spot, and they got it.

They did a good job coaching, a good job game-planning. But it’s really about my seniors and my guys. It was a very winnable game. We actually improved, and it’s hard to see improvement in defeat. I’m proud of them, but it’s a lesson in if we don’t do the little things, then we fall through the cracks and it’s 27-0.”

The Spartans fell behind, 7-0, after the first 1:52, their first drive culminated in a turnover in the end zone. That was the first of the Spartans’ five turnovers, including four interceptions. The second interception came on their second possession and it resulted in another Oswego East touchdown to make it 14-0 with 7:03 left in the first half.

The Wolves added a 34-yard field goal in the final seconds of the half to take a 17-0 lead.

“The first quarter was manageable, and in the second half, we were still in it, but we needed to finish it,” Gibson said. “It’s the little things.”

From there, the game was well in hand for the Wolves.

“As a coach, there aren’t too many positives, but for the players, there are a lot of things,” Gibson said. “Senior Anthony Kitchens, who played quarterback, is a heck of an athlete. We have two special running backs with Tyree Allen and Jordan Nettles. Those kids are going to be special.

“It feels bad when you lose. I feel bad for our seniors because we had a good group. They were small but they’re mighty.”

BOYS/GIRLS CROSS COUNTRY: IHSA CLASS 3A MINOOKA REGIONAL

By CURT HERRON cherron@shawmedia.com

• Sunday, October 25, 2015

CHANNAHON – Minooka’s cross country program claimed its first sweep of girls and boys regionals since 2011 when it easily won both titles Saturday in its own Class 3A meet at Channahon Community Park.

Coach Kevin Gummerson’s girls team defeated Lincoln-Way Central, 2262, for top honors and his boys squad prevailed, 40-69, over United Township for first place. As a result, both advance to next Saturday’s Normal Community Sectional.

The Indians also had the individual champion in each race, with Ashley Tutt taking first place in the opener and Soren Knudsen following that with a win in the finale.

Tutt (17:41) easily won the girls race, finishing 32 seconds ahead of teammate Mackenzie Callahan (18:13). Morgan Crouch (18:30) took third, Vivian Van Eck (18:35) was fourth and Katelyn Gall (19:33), Katelyn Egetimeier (19:38) and Emily Ellis (19:41) placed 12th to 14th.

“Regionals are important, but we really want to be at our best at state,” Tutt said. “I feel like this year, since the summer, we’ve really come together since we all have the same goal. We’ve all been pushing each other since we all want a trophy. We just need to keep everyone healthy and work really hard these next two weeks.”

The Indians’ girls, who are ranked third in Class 3A, won easily despite not running one of their top individuals, Emily Shelton. As the lone senior regular on the team, Crouch is excited about what they might be able to accomplish during the next two weeks.

“It’s been so exciting this year, especially since I’m a senior,” Crouch said.

“We’re looking to do some big things at sectionals and at state. This team has been amazing this season by working together and the results are starting to come in, so that’s great. Even though we have a really young team, the dedication that everyone has put in is un-

The Knights girls were led by Kelly Robbins (sixth, 18:59), Jenna Diers (eighth, 19:05), Madison Smith (ninth, 19:21), Gretchen Zirgaitis (11th, 19:28) and Dana Boucher (28th, 20:34).

Also advancing to the sectional were Providence Catholic’s Erynn Wakefield (30th, 20:42) and Savannah Baker (36th, 21:00).

In the boys race, Knudsen (15:32) trailed UT’s Kyle Riege and Dalton Martin during the late stages but made a big closing move to beat Riege by 13 seconds.

“I knew that it wasn’t just going to

be handed to me,” Knudsen said. “I knew that Kyle had some really good times, so I was just looking to key off of him. With about 1,200 meters to go, I felt comfortable so I just took it right there. I was feeling pretty good, but about four weeks ago, I got a bit of an injury. So I’m happy with where I’m at under the circumstances.”

Other finishers for the Indians were Justin Tutt (fourth, 15:56), Miguel Lomeli (ninth, 16:06), Jordan Freese (12th, 16:20), Jack Sullivan (14th, 16:27), Ethan Milles (17th, 16:31) and Cody Hoshell (18th, 16:31).

BOYS SOCCER: CLASS 2A LINCOLN-WAY WEST REGIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP: PROVIDENCE CATHOLIC 1, LINCOLN-WAY WEST 0

Providence edges Lincoln-Way West for title

By CURT HERRON cherron@shawmedia.com NEW LENOX – While the boys soccer season hasn’t played out as Providence Catholic and Lincoln-Way West had hoped, the two sides had the chance to experience a highlight Saturday when they met for a regional championship.

The Celtics scored in the 12th minute to grab the early lead and then made sure that the goal would stand, as they went on to capture a 1-0 victory over the Warriors in the finals of the Class 2A Lincoln-Way West Regional.

Kevin Sullivan fired a liner that keeper Connor O’Shaughnessy deflected in front of the net where Luke Picard alertly lunged toward the loose ball and put it in.

“We knew what we needed

to do before the game and got it done,” Sullivan said. “It was nice to see Luke crashing the goal. His goal really set the tone and we moved the ball around well after that and stayed composed the entire game. We started off well this season then kind of fell down but the last three games we’ve progressed well.”

Providence (10-9-1) won its first regional title since 2009 and advances to Tuesday’s 6:30 p.m. Lincoln-Way West Sectional, where it meets Manteno.

“Our season has had some ups and downs,” Celtics coach Dan Potempa said. “We’ve had some good games and some bad games, but we tried to stay as positive as possible in those tough games. We thought we had the talent and ability so that we could get there if we kept working. The boys didn’t

give up and that’s what I’m most proud of them for.”

Neither side had many chances in the opening half.

Near the midpoint, Celtic Bernie O’Donnell was thwarted and later in the half, Cam Cutler was also denied. West (9-9-4) responded with two free kicks from Justin Yaeger in the first 40 minutes.

During the final half, Yaeger sent in a free kick that Tim Cucci headed toward keeper Dan Porter. Then in the final quarter, Celtics’ P.J. Kowalkowski fired in a long free kick that keeper Gus Petrungaro punched over the net and O’Donnell’s subsequent corner kick was cleared by a defender before West’s Jay Bumstead flicked a shot toward the net.

“We’re so close to this school that we just try to make it our home away from home,”

Kowalkowski said. “We wanted to start off good and Celtic Nation came in force. We had a rough start to our season but the last couple of games we’ve pulled it together and bonded as a team. Although most of us are seniors, it took us awhile to bond together.”

In the 70th minute, Cutler bounced one off the post, and then in the 75th minute, West’s John Farrell got free and drove toward the goal but Porter came out to break up the try.

“I didn’t think that I would get him at first,” Porter said.

“But I came out, stayed big and kept the size of the goal down and apparently it worked. We were a little shaky at the start but we’re coming together as a team at the right time. Our team is a little more serious now knowing that nothing is guaranteed. Everyone is play-

ing their heart out on every play.”

The Warriors kept up the pressure down the stretch with Cucci heading another Yaeger free kick toward the net before Porter stopped a late attempt by Yaeger to preserve the shutout.

It was a tough ending for West, which started strong this season but was slowed by injuries, including some in the playoffs.

“Our guys stayed hungry and pressed to the final whistle,” Warriors coach Jeff Theiss said. “Some times you just have to give the other team credit. Providence was very strong and scored that goal and remained dangerous throughout the game. We stood strong when we needed to and kept it a one-goal game and did generate some chances at the end.”

SOCCER ROUNDUP

Joliet W. puts up fight in loss to Normal Bolingbrook

By DICK GOSS dgoss@shawmedia.com JOLIET – The Joliet West soccer team did everything but get the ball in the net Friday afternoon.

The result was a 2-0 loss to Normal Community in the championship game of the Class 3A Joliet West Regional.

Normal is the No. 1 seed in Sub-Sectional A of the Collinsville Sectional, and West was No. 5.

Ironmen sophomore Austin Woodside, who was making his first varsity start in goal, was instrumental in preventing the Tigers (13-9-1) from advancing in the tournament.

“They have a good keeper,” West coach Patrick Korthauer said. “He played extremely well. He was on frame, on frame, on frame. He kept responding.”

Big and athletic forward Emmanuel Ndjoli scored both goals for Normal.

The first came from 25 yards out after a juke move with 37:10 still remaining in the first half.

His second came with 10:22 left in the game when he moved down the left sideline and beat West keeper Jaime Reyes.

West’s Felipe Ortiz and Ivan Ar-

“We played extremely well and did not give up until the very end. Even when we could see the end in sight, when it’s hard to keep going, we kept fighting.”

Patrick Korthauer Joliet West boys soccer coach

menta had near-misses on scoring opportunities in the first half.

Elber Haro, Michael Vallejo, Ivan Lopez, Jayson Graves and Alex Meyers had potential scores go awry in the second half because of Woodside.

Graves is a captain and plays defense, but with a little over 10 minutes left, Korthauer moved him up front with the hopes he could jumpstart the offense.

It almost happened moments after Graves moved to forward, but Woodside made the save.

“He [Graves] has played every minute this season at one position, but we thought we would move him up to see what he could do,” Korthauer said. “He gave it his all

for five or six minutes and then we moved him back.

“All the great buildup we had to get into position to score was good, but the final touch eluded us tonight. Our defense has been so strong all season, but what it came down to is them taking advantage of their opportunities and us not taking advantage of ours.”

Korthauer noted that despite what the seeds indicated, “the rankings go out the window. Our expectation was to win tonight. If we played our best, if the chips fell the way we hoped, we thought we would win.”

As the coach said, even after Ndjoli scored his second goal, the Tigers gave their all.

“We played extremely well and did not give up until the very end,” Korthauer said. “Even when we could see the end in sight, when it’s hard to keep going, we kept fighting.

“Our program is on such an upswing the last couple of years because of that senior class we are losing. Our next goal will be to build on what they did.”

West had 13 seniors on the roster.

CLASS 3A PLAINFIELD SOUTH CROSS COUNTRY REGIONAL

Power of the pack powers Lockport

By JEFF DeGRAW Shaw Media Correspondent SHOREWOOD – The power of the pack spurred Lockport’s girls cross country team to a first-place finish Saturday at the Class 3A Plainfield South Regional at Hammel Woods.

The Porters used a 3-5-6-1112 finish and only a 28-second split between those five runners to score 37 points.

Benet Academy was second (66). Plainfield South in fifth and Bolingbrook sixth were the other local team qualifiers for next Saturday’s Hinsdale Central Sectional at Katherine Legge Memorial Park.

“We always have a plan to start as a pack, especially the first mile,” said Porter Karlee Stortz, who finished sixth.

“Then at that point we will ad-

Lockport’s Morgan Bollinger worked her way all the way back up and finished third (18:26).

“We always talk to each other through the race and we really did that today,” Bollinger said.

“After two miles we just said, ‘let’s go,’ ” said Aubrey Friedrich, who was fifth (18:27).

Kate Wojcikiewicz finished 11th (18:49) and Alicia Ary rounded out the top five in 12th (18:54) for the Porters.

“We are healthy and that is important now,” said Porters coach Erin Truesdale. “Next week, we need to move our pack up some and try to get that 1-5 split even lower.”

Plainfield South was led by the seventh-place finish of

Alexis Grigg (18:32), followed

by Greta Carlberg 15th, Jozelyn Macclas 18th, Daijah Brown 31st and Katie Cole 33rd.

“We live to fight another day,” South coach Dan Shuman said.

“We are moving on and that is what is important,” South coach Jason Crowe said. “We will prepare and be ready for next week. Our top four ran well today.”

South was led by John Partee in third, Andy Bhatia fourth, Hunter Dyer seventh and Austin Brown ninth. Fifth runner Christian Knowlton finished 20th.

Romeoville had No. 1 runner Ian Irvine fall about halfway through the race, but Zeke Cabanas (11th) and BOYS’ RACE Dan Ford (17th) helped lead On the boys’ side, Plain- the Spartans. Irvine finished field South was second (43 23rd. points), Romeoville fourth “We are pretty happy,” (127) and Lockport sixth (176) Romeoville coach Rick Della-

morte said. “I’m very proud of the way everyone really stepped up and came through, especially when Ian (Irvine) went down.”

Lockport’s sixth place and final qualifying spot was a surprise to many.

“This is good, this is good – we are so young,” said an emotional Tom Razo, the longtime Porters mentor.

The Porters were led by the 26th-place finish of Cade Musich and had only a 33-second 1-5 split.

Plainfield East grabbed two individual qualifiers as Emmanuel Angomas finished 18th and Tyler Kiskwas was 33rd. Bolingbrook had the other three individuals as Bjorn Shroda (28th), Joshia Beyler (36th) and Caleb Robertson (39th) all advance.

NORTHERN ILLINOIS 49, EASTERN MICHIGAN 21

Huskies blow out Eastern Michigan early, cruise to easy victory

By JESSE SEVERSON jseverson@shawmedia.com DeKALB – The Northern Illinois football team didn’t leave it to chance this time against Eastern Michigan.

After eking out a win against Eastern Michigan last season, the Huskies had the win secured by halftime and bullied the Eagles in a 49-21 victory on homecoming on a windy Saturday afternoon at Huskie Stadium.

“You never underestimate winning in any way, shape or form,” Northern Illinois coach Rod Carey said.

Junior running back Joel Bouagnon continued his strong season, rushing 26 times for 136 yards and a touchdown. He has 861 rushing yards on the season and 14 touchdowns – the latter of which put him in a tie for second in the nation after the Huskies’ game. He has rushed for at least 100 yards in five of the Huskies’ eight games this season, including four straight.

Mary Beth Nolan – mnolan@shawmedia.com

Northern Illinois running Joel Bouagnon waltzes into the end zone for a second-quarter touchdown Saturday against Eastern Michigan at Huskie Stadium in DeKalb.

Backup running back Jordan Huff had the longest play of the game late in the second quarter and finished with 128 yards on 13 carries and a score.

It was the first time the Huskies had two players with at least 100 rushing yards in a

game since Miami (Ohio) on Oct. 18, 2014 (Drew Hare and Cameron Stingily). As a team, the Huskies finished with 322 rushing yards against the Eagles, who came into the game averaging a conference-worst 343 a game.

The Huskies (5-3 overall, 3-1 in Mid-American Conference West) outgained the Eagles (1-7 overall, 0-4 in MAC West), 591376, on the day.

Junior quarterback Drew Hare was efficient again, going 24 for 38 with 269 yards, four touchdowns and no interceptions.

Senior receiver Tommylee Lewis, who turned 23 on Saturday, finished with seven catches and 80 yards – both season highs – and a touchdown, and junior receiver Kenny Golladay added six receptions for 71 yards and a touchdown.

Eastern Michigan starting quarterback Reggie Bell, who missed five games earlier this season with a broken jaw, did not play Saturday against the Huskies.

Carey said he didn’t know Bell, who was injured against Toledo last week, would be out coming into the game.

“They played that close to the vest,” Carey said.

Quarterback Brogan Roback

went 26 for 43 with 219 yards and an interception for the Eagles in his sixth start of the season. Running back Darius Jackson, who came into the game second in the conference in rushing yards and touchdowns, finished with 101 yards and two touchdowns.

Defensively for the Huskies, senior safety Marlon Moore had a team-high 11 tackles and sophomore Bobby Jones, who is the reigning MAC Defensive Player of the Week, added 10. Freshman linebacker Juwuan Johnson had his first interception of the season for Northern Illinois.

“On film, [Jackson] looked pretty good,” Jones said. “I knew that I had to wrap up and tackle pretty well.”

Junior linebacker Sean Folliard, who was third on the team with tackles on the season, did not play against Eastern Michigan because of an illness he caught during the week. Junior wide receiver Chad Beebe missed the game against Miami because of illness.

Thorson, Wildcats hang on The ASSOCIATED PRESS

Wisconsin receiver Robert Wheelwright (15) dives into the end zone for a touchdown during the second quarter Sunday game against Illinois in Champaign. The Badgers won, 24-13.

WISCONSIN 24, ILLINOIS 13

Houston, Badgers roll past Illinois 13.

By DAVID MERCER The Associated Press CHAMPAIGN – Early in the first quarter Saturday, Illinois defensive end Carroll Phillips drove Wisconsin quarterback Joel Stave to the ground on a hard sack.

Wisconsin coach Paul Chryst said Stave passed the sideline concussion protocol, but when the quarterback went back in the game he didn’t look right.

“You could tell he wasn’t getting the plays,” Chryst said, forcing him to turn to Bart Houston. “We thought Bart was going to be our best chance on it.”

Chryst thought right.

Houston was 27 of 33 for 232 yards, leading Wisconsin (6-2, 3-1 Big Ten) to a 24-13 victory at Illinois.

The junior threw for two touchdowns and had two interceptions. Before Saturday, Houston was 5 of 9 passing in three brief appearances this season and had thrown just four passes in his first two years at Wisconsin.

Illinois quarterback Wes Lunt (12) drops back to pass during the first quarter against Wisconsin.

“Yeah, I’ve been waiting years – three or four or something like that – so yeah, it’s fun to play the game again,” Houston said.

The loss was the second in a row for Illinois (4-3, 1-2), a team struggling with injuries and facing four of its last five games on the road.

Statistically, Wisconsin dominated Illinois, gaining 419 yards to 333, running 80 plays to 56 for the Illini and keeping the

ball for over 40 minutes.

But interim Illinois coach Bill Cubit said they were just a handful of missed plays away from a potential win.

“I give their guys a lot of credit, and I still think we were right there,” Cubit said. “When we have the chance to make a big play, we’ve got to make it.”

Wisconsin looked in charge midway through the third quarter but Illinois was still well within range, trailing 17-

That all changed, though, over the next two possessions.

Wisconsin ground out a 13play, 65-yard drive that chewed up 7 minutes and 39 seconds, and ended with a 9-yard touchdown pass from Houston to Alex Erickson for a two-score advantage.

The Badger defense iced it when Lunt threw a ball that linebacker T.J. Edwards tipped and safety Michael Caputo picked off at the Badger’s 49.

Illinois never threatened again.

Erickson was Houston’s top target Saturday. The senior receiver caught 10 balls for 96 yards and the touchdown.

He was also Wisconsin’s top rusher with four carries for 81 yards.

Houston found his rhythm early with Robert Wheelwright.

Six plays after Stave’s exit, Houston threw to Wheelwright, who reached over an Illinois defensive back to pull down a 23-yard touchdown pass. That gave Badgers their first lead at 7-3, less than a minute into the second quarter.

LINCOLN, Neb. – This time Northwestern prevailed in yet another close game with Nebraska.

Clayton Thorson’s 37yard touchdown pass to Dan Vitale and Jack Mitchell’s third field goal gave the Wildcats an eight-point lead in the fourth quarter and they hung on to win 30-28 on Saturday.

Nebraska won on a Hail Mary the last time Northwestern visited Memorial Stadium. In the teams’ five meetings since the Cornhuskers joined the Big Ten, four have been decided by three points or less.

The Wildcats (6-2, 2-2 Big Ten) bounced back from consecutive losses of 38-0 to Michigan and 40-10 to Iowa and became bowl eligible for the first time since 2012.

No. 1 Ohio State 49, Rutgers 7: At Piscataway, New Jer-

sey, J.T. Barrett threw three touchdown passes and ran for two scores in his first start of the season, leading No. 1 Ohio State to a victory against Rutgers and ensuring at least two weeks of quarterback stability for the Buckeyes.

Ohio State (8-0, 4-0 Big Ten) extended its winning streak to 21 games, best in the nation, and heads into its off week with no doubt who the starting QB will be when Minnesota comes to Columbus on Nov. 7.

CHICAGO – Jonathan Toews scored his first goal of the season 17 seconds into overtime to give the Blackhawks a 1-0 victory over the Tampa Bay Lightning on Saturday night in a rematch of last June’s Stanley Cup Final.

Corey Crawford made 21 saves for his first shutout this season and 13th of his career in the Hawks’ third straight victory.

A determined Toews netted the winner when he barreled into the Tampa Bay zone and muscled between Anton Stralman and Valtteri Filppula to the net. Rookie goalie Kristers Gudlevskis stopped Toews’ initial chance, but the Hawks’ captain knocked in his own rebound.

Gudlevskis made 31 saves iN his second NHL start, and first appearance since April 2014, as coach Jon Cooper gave No. 1

goalie Ben Bishop the night off.

Bishop was in the net for every minute of Tampa Bay’s first eight games and earned his 100th NHL win Friday night in the Lightning’s 4-3 overtime victory at Winnipeg.

Gudlevskis, a 6-foot-3, 23-year-old Latvian, was recalled from Syracuse of the AHL before the contest. He got the nod over Kevin Poulin, who was placed on waivers Saturday after not appearing in a game this season.

The Hawks played their second game without top defenseman Duncan Keith, who underwent right knee surgery last week. The two-time Norris Trophy winner had a meniscal tear repaired and is expected to miss four to six weeks.

Keith scored a spectacular tiebreaking goal in the Hawks’ 2-0 victory in Game 6 that earned them the Stanley Cup for the third time in six seasons.

Recognition organization still relevant and active 30 years later Know more

By DENISE M. BARAN–UNLAND dunland@shawmedia.com JOLIET – Joliet has an image problem, said Nick Macris, president of Joliet/Will County Project Pride.

As the recognition organization’s 30th anniversary approaches, Macris thinks people are – overall – unaware of the people, things and places that make Joliet a great city.

Project Pride wants to change that.

In 1985, when Joliet was battling high crime, unemployment and interest rates, the Rev. Jim Allen of Joliet, while vacationing in Australia, read this newspaper headline: “Joliet, Illinois – murder capital of the United States,” Macris said.

So Allen – already active in local clergy associations and known for positive thinking – set out to change that perception by founding Project Pride.

“To encourage people to have pride in their neighborhood and city, that’s as im-

The 30th anniversary hon-

ors banquet, “Music and Ministry: The Pearls of Joliet/Will County,” on Nov. 10 is significant for many reasons.

It’s the first time Joliet/ Will County Project Pride will induct organizations, instead of individuals, into the Hall of Pride, which is displayed on the second floor at the downtown branch of the Joliet Public Library, Macris said.

Honorees are the Sisters of St. Francis of Mary Immaculate and the Joliet American Legion Band.

The band will perform a celebration concert before the induction ceremony.

The second Rev. James E. Allen Award for Service to the Community also will be given.

The 2014 recipient was Bill Doolin, surveillance manager at Harrah’s Joliet Casino/Hotel.

This year the award will go to Jan Nahorski, graffiti abatement officer for the city of Joliet, Macris said.

Starting this year, the city of Joliet partnered with Proj-

ect Pride for its Neighborhood Hero Award, Zalanka said.

This award was initiated in 2009 to encourage residents in the 4th and 5th Districts to show pride in their properties, Zalanka said.

PUZZLES CROSSWORD

SUDOKU

BRIDGE by Phillip Alder

Ruffs can be good or not so good

CELEBRITY CIPHER

Ludwig von Mises was an economist famous for his work on praxeology, a study of human choice and action. He said, “To defeat the aggressors is not enough to make peace durable. The main thing is to discard the ideology that generates war.”

Don’t we wish that would be possible – today or ever?

In a much safer environment, bridge students tend to play by “the rules” – general pieces of advice they learn from teachers. But when a deal comes along that does not fit the mold, they often make the wrong play.

For example, in this deal, South is in four spades. How should the defense proceed?

South’s two-spade advance was forcing for one round. On the second round, South was sorely tempted to raise to three no-trump. Here, though, that would not have worked well if East had led the diamond nine, and West had played low. Instead, South forced to game with his three-diamond cue-bid, and North was happy to continue with three spades, suggesting a good doubleton. (With three spades, he would have raised spades on the previous round of the auction.)

West leads the diamond ace: seven, nine, six. He then cashes the diamond king: jack, two, five. Now, looking at all 52 cards, West must shift to his trump. (The curious may work it out.) But most Wests would lead a third diamond, hoping partner could profitably ruff away dummy’s winner.

Some Easts would ruff, not noting that it costs their natural trump trick. The wiser defenders discard. Then, unless playing with mirrors, South will go down, losing two diamonds, one heart and one spade.

Note to readers: This column is an update of one that originally appeared in October 2011.

legs and face. It typically appears on just one side of the body, looking like a red stripe. That stripe follows the path of the nerve that is infected.

Many experts recommend that all Americans ages 50 or older should get the shingles vaccine. That applies even if they’ve already had shingles, and even if they are not sure that they ever had chickenpox. The vaccine consists of a single shot in the upper arm.

Getting the vaccine does not guarantee that you won’t get shingles, but it does reduce your chances by 50 percent or more.

And it does an even better job of reducing your risk of postherpetic neuralgia.

Because the shingles vaccine is made with a weakened – not dead – form of the virus, a small number of people develop a rash within a month or so of getting the vaccine.

The vaccine should not be given to pregnant women, but few women age 50 and older become pregnant.

Not all health insurance policies cover the cost of the shingles vaccine. You may want to look into this in making the decision to get the vaccine.

The reason to consider getting the shingles vaccine is to reduce your risk of getting postherpetic neuralgia – by two-thirds!

I’ve voted with my feet. I got the vaccine, because I’ve seen too many of my patients suffer from postherpetic neuralgia. (Even though I’ve had shingles once, you can get it again.)

Chronic pain can disrupt a person’s life. If there’s a simple way to reduce your risk, why not do it?

Dear Dr. K: I’m a healthy 55-year-old man. Should I get the shingles vaccine?

And while you’re at it, what exactly is shingles?

Dear Reader: Shingles is a condition that results in a rash and pain. It is caused by the same virus (called VZV) that causes chickenpox. After a case of chickenpox, the virus can lie dormant inside your nerves for decades. By “dormant,” I mean that it is not multiplying – it just lies there inside the nerve cells.

Some people get infected with the virus without knowing it – that is, without getting chickenpox.

That happened to me: I never had chickenpox, but I had shingles as an adult.

The virus gets into the body, infects some nerves and remains inactive.

People catch the virus from other people, usually during childhood.

Shingles occurs when the virus become reactivated – when it starts to multiply. We don’t really understand what causes “sleeping” viruses like this one to become reactivated. The infected nerves, and the skin the nerves go to, become inflamed. This causes a rash that often contains little blisters, along with an unpleasant sensation in the area of the rash. More serious damage to the nerves leads to long-lasting pain known as postherpetic neuralgia.

Most patients describe the pain as “burning” or “stabbing.” It often gets worse when the skin touches something, even something as light as a shirtsleeve. The rash usually lasts a week to 10 days.

If postherpetic neuralgia develops, the pain can be severe and last for months or sometimes years.

Most often, the painful rash of shingles occurs on the chest or abdomen, front or back. But it can also occur on the arms,

Make sure that your valuables are in a safe location and don’t reveal the extent of your assets to prying individuals. Caution is your best friend.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) – A day trip will calm your nerves and motivate you to rethink your plans.

A long chat with an old friend will help you put whatever adversity you face in perspective.

PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) – Think before you speak.

Something you tell someone in confidence will end up public knowledge. Your reputation will come under scrutiny if you have been indiscreet. Offer honest, precise information.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) – Shake up your routine and consider relieving your boredom by taking on a unique challenge. Share your ideas with someone

you want to collaborate with. A moneymaking enterprise is apparent.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) – A tempting career offer will be fleeting. Prepare to act quickly when offered a change in direction. Overspending on household items will cause tension with someone you live with.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) – Do whatever it takes to increase your popularity. Come up with a variety of challenging activities for yourself and your friends.

Intellectual and physical contests will allow you to step into the spotlight.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) – Don’t let personal issues cause you to lose focus professionally. Your productivity will suffer if your mind is caught up in emotional situations. Protect your livelihood and your heart.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) – You’ll be given a chance

to develop an idea. Don’t let indecision or anxiety prevent you from giving your best effort. You have what it takes to be a success.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) – Consider the effect an emotional upheaval will have on those around you.

Don’t make a change prematurely. You’ll find a workable solution if you bide your time.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) – Getting involved in an enjoyable pastime will help you relieve stress. Reading, listening to music or embarking on a day trip will take your mind off any troubling matter you face. ****** (EDITORS: For editorial questions, please contact Reed Jackson at rjackson@amuniversal.com) COPYRIGHT 2015 United Feature Syndicate, Inc.

Decision to join religion must come from the heart

Dear Abby: I am a 16-year-old girl who doesn’t believe in God. Frankly, I feel uncomfortable when religion is brought up.

All my friends are firm believers of Christianity and attend Bible study, or help out with other things at their church.

My parents and brothers don’t believe in God. When I say I’d like to be a Christian, my brothers make fun of me. When they do, it makes me feel ashamed of myself.

I want to be a Christian because it would be nice to feel like I belong, and most Christians aren’t accepting of atheists – especially other girls my age. They might be polite, but they’re distant.

It also doesn’t help that the boy I like comes from a religious family. What should I do? – Outsider in

Blondie

Pearls Before Swine

Alabama Dear Outsider: I think

Real Life Adventures

you should continue being true to the person you really are. Let me point out that if you’re feeling isolated now, consider what a fraud you will feel like if you join a religion and must pray to a deity you don’t believe in in order to “fit in.”

While many churches promote church-related youth activities, you should explore what nonsectarian activities are available in your community.

If the boy you like cares about you, he will like you even if you aren’t religious, and you will have your self-respect.

It’s not easy feeling different, but sometimes it’s worth it.

Dear Abby: We are not sure what to do about a nosy neighbor I’ll call “Myrtle.” She’s nice to talk to, but quite honestly, I suspect she must be watch-

DEAR ABBY Jeanne Phillips ing us with binoculars because she told me what brand of wine we drink.

When my husband sends me flowers, she calls me to find out why. If we have a party, she calls to find out what it’s about!

A few years ago, I was talking to Myrtle in front of her house and mentioned that I usually walk my dog in the morning. She responded, “Oh, I KNOW when you walk your dog.”

(Is that creepy or is it me?)

Abby, we have nothing to hide, but our life is none of her business.

I’ve been neighborly to her, but it seems like she wants too much information about us and has no problem telling us all her business and how much she spends.

She’s single and friendly with all the neighbors, as are we.

I haven’t asked if they experience the same thing or if we’re the “lucky ones.” How should this be handled? – Fed Up in Utah Dear Fed Up: Continue to be polite to your neighbor, but when she asks questions you would rather not answer, instead of answering her directly, respond with another question: “Myrtle, why do you ask?” If she presses for an answer, without being confrontational say, “It’s personal,” and change the subject.

Be sure to keep your shades drawn on windows that face her house, and when you walk your dog, take a different route.
