Going pink for a good cause VIEWS Kate Schott In the next week, our readers are going to be seeing pink.

On Tuesday, readers of the The Herald-News will get a newspaper printed on pink paper. As we did last year, we’re printing on pink paper as part of Breast Cancer Awareness Month.

On Oct. 13, readers of the Morris Herald-News will get their pink paper.

Breast cancer is the second leading cause of cancer death in women, exceeded only by lung cancer, according to the American Cancer Society. In 2015, an estimated 231,840 new cases of invasive breast cancer will be diagnosed among women, and about 40,290 women will die from breast cancer.

We are going pink as part of our commitment to give back to the communities we, too, live and work in. A portion of the proceeds from the sale of ads in Tuesday’s edition will benefit Pink Heals, a nonprofit organization dedicated to supporting women with cancer.

JOLIET – The Joliet City Council is scheduled to vote Tuesday on a plan to create three new business taxing districts in the city.

City officials have added the Louis Joliet Mall area to two others proposed earlier, and want to begin collecting property taxes from the proposed areas next year.

“We’re trying to get on this year’s tax levy,” City Manager Jim Hock said Friday. “If we wait until February or July, we’ve lost a year.”

The city is proposing Special Service Areas that would create a property tax applied only to those areas to generate funds to be used for economic development.

Two other SSAs on the agenda are the Jefferson Street corridor, including the medical district and other nearby business areas, and a

JOLIET – Dominic Egizio resigned Friday from his $160,000-a-year job as executive director of the Joliet Park District.

The resignation comes after an internal investigation reportedly focused on Egizio’s relationship with a female employee.

Egizio was placed on paid administrative leave six weeks ago when the park board hired a law firm to do the investigation.

Sources have said Egizio was placed on leave after the park district received a demand letter from a lawyer representing the female employee, who was said to be seeking payment and other action to resolve the situation.

Park officials have not commented on the nature of the investigation, other than to say it involved Egizio.

The proposal also is on the agenda for discussion Monday during the City Council’s workshop session.

Egizio resigns as executive director for Joliet Park District

By BOB OKON bokon@shawmedia.com

The resignation did not come with any severance pay or other conditions, park board President Glen Marcum said.

While on paid leave, Egizio received $17,229, according to park officials.

He officially was placed on administrative leave Aug. 24, although Egizio stopped coming to work a few days before then. His departure came after the board met in closed session at a special meeting.

According to a source, the demand letter from the employee’s attorney was reviewed at that meeting.

No comment on investigation

Marcum declined to discuss the circumstances leading to the resignation or the findings of the Sotos Law Firm investigation, referring to it as a personnel issue.

Marcum would not comment on whether Egizio faced

termination if he did not resign. He also would not comment on whether the park district continues to face the threat of litigation and demand for payment from the park district employee.

The resignation came after the park board on Monday reviewed a report from the Sotos Law Firm, which conducted the investigation.

Park officials said they have not yet received the bill from Sotos. The investigation also involved work by Elijah Ltd., a Chicago-based information technology company.

Marcum said the work

by Sotos and Elijah has been completed, but the park board still would need to review the report on the investigation.

“We didn’t have a good chance to review everything,” he said. “Personally, I have not even had a chance to read it all.”

Actors, actresses identify with each other at haunted prison attraction

Actor Clint Brubaker stands Wednesday outside Statesville Haunted Prison in Crest Hill while holding a latex head named Charlie the day before the haunt’s opening night.

“We’re not looking for tough guys ... or scary-looking people.

We look for people who want to do this.”

John Laflamboy Owner of Zombie Army Productions

Statesville spookers

About 175 people – most of them part of generations Y and Z – signed contracts Wednesday for positions at Statesville.

The spookers were chosen out of the hundreds who auditioned Sept. 18.

“We’re not looking for tough guys ... or scary-looking people,” Laflamboy said. “We look for people who want to do this. We need to know this is what you want to do. You need to be comfortable looking ridiculous.”

“Because without the clothes and makeup, we do

look ridiculous,” Laflamboy said, chuckling at the thought of zombie movements in jeans and a T-shirt.

Almost all of the spookers are paid for their work, Laflamboy said. But there are some volunteers who work on a limited schedule because of time constraints.

Each spooker also undergoes several hours of safety training. This year, the training took place most of the evening Tuesday. Laflamboy said organizers make sure the spookers know what to do and

where to go in case of emergencies, whether it is a fire or a visitor who passes out in fright.

Cecelia Fox, a fourth-year veteran at Statesville, said the safety training matters because it is important to know what to do in an unfamiliar setting for visitors.

“If something happens, you’ve got to call it in,” she said. “You can tell the difference from someone playing around, and someone who gets scared. One time, someone straight up punched a [male spooker] in the face. He got way too close, and he obviously got her great.”

Life in lockup

Lindwood resident Jesse McDonald is in his third year reprising the role of Chops the Clown.

At the “clown entrance,” Chops wears a deft smile as he courts visitors with other clowns in the room. But

sometimes, Chops needs to go hours into the night while keeping the screams coming.

“A lot of caffeine helps,” McDonald said. “Cold medicines too. I slam off the walls so it’s physically demanding, too.”

McDonald said the two most motivating aspects of the experience are the family of miscreants he becomes a part of, and making people scream.

“We’re all the outcasts and the nerds, and it’s awesome,” he said.

Wilmington resident Jasmin Jones is the “Spider Lady” at the spider bridge at the City of the Dead, a neighboring sister attraction of Statesville with a zombie theme.

Jones said management provides several breaks and snacks for its actors through the long night.

“I love the people and the atmosphere,” Jones said. “We act as a family and get to scare

Statesville and the City of the Dead attractions are open 7 to 10 p.m. Thursdays and Sundays, and 7 to 11 p.m. Fridays and Saturdays in October. They are located at Siegel’s Cottonwood Farm at 17250 S. Weber Road in Crest Hill. Additional days include Oct. 28 and Nov. 1, the Wednesday and Sunday the week of Halloween.

Tickets are cheapest online at www.statesvillehauntedprison.com/tickets.php for $30 per person for general admission to both, $45 for a VIP pass that includes a shorter line and $65 for an additional zombie paintball ride. Group passes for 15 or more people are $21 per person. people too. You can see the fear in their eyes and know they’re having fun.”

Laflamboy, who graduated from Lockport Township High School, said part of the main goal of Statesville has slowly turned into developing an outlet for kids who don’t conform to what is considered normal.

Many times these are young adults who didn’t find their way in high school.

“These kids are starving for something to put their energy and creativity into,” Laflamboy said. “And man, when they got something that they’re proud of, it changes them.”

Preparing for prison

For the spookers, Statesville is a goofy, but rewarding, experience.

“At the audition, they want to see you’re willing to make a fool of yourself,” Fox said.

CREST HILL – Walking into the dark, musty entrance of the Statesville Haunted Prison, an eerie chill embarks before visitors are greeted by a ghoulish figure standing on a balcony, welcoming all to the horrors of incarceration.

“Here within these walls are beasts, which must be fed,” the tall, cloaked figure says with a cracked, deep tone.

Those beasts include possessed inmates, evil clowns and deranged killers waiting to meet you.

They are at the center of what makes Statesville, which opened Thursday, one of the premiere haunted venues in the state. It has been voted the top haunted house in Illinois

by HauntedHouseChicago. com in 12 of the past 15 years.

And behind those macabre masks, gallons of fake blood and chains are people who identify themselves as a family of society’s outcasts.

“A lot of them are kids that have slipped through the cracks,” said John Laflamboy, owner of Zombie Army Productions, which produces Statesville. “This gives them something to be proud of.”

CREST HILL – Paul Siegel grew up looking across the open fields at prison guards on horseback roaming around the Stateville Correctional Center.

“Like most Americans, I was raised believing that incarceration was a scary place,” Siegel said. “The fear was designed for you to stay on the straight and narrow.”

That fear is what led him to name his famous haunted house, Statesville Haunted Prison, after the real prison – albeit with an extra “s.”

Stateville, the maximum security prison of Route 53, housed inmates like

mass murderer Richard Speck and was the center for executions in Illinois when legal, including the execution of John Wayne Gacy.

“They were on the other side of the fence, but we always knew there were a lot of nasty people there,” Siegel said.

Siegel also grew up with a story that added to the fear.

He said about 10 years before he was born, two inmates escaped and arrived at Siegel’s father’s house. One inmate knocked on the door and demanded his father hand over the keys to a new car.

Before his father could respond, the other inmate found the keys and the two fled north on Weber Road.

Siegel said his cousin saw the car

speeding and knew his father didn’t drive like that. So the cousin followed the car until it crashed at a right turn bend on Weber Road, injuring one inmate.

But when Siegel’s cousin approached the car, the other inmate took him hostage at knife-point and took him into the corn fields. His cousin was safely rescued after authorities surrounded the two.

“We heard the story and it did influence us,” Siegel said.

The extra “s” in the haunted house’s name came from a mispronunciation from prison visitors who stopped by Siegel’s farm to ask for directions.

“We got accustomed to people coming to the door asking us how to get to ‘Statesville,’ ” Siegel said.

Continued from page 3 Fox is cast in the “Blood Room,” where she creeps underneath a rotating belt of meat hooks from which severed feet dangle to tempt unsuspecting visitors to the dark side.

In the auditions, people were asked to split into groups of six for an improvisation session.

“In my scenario, we were at an animal shelter and we had 39 cages for 40 animals,” Fox said. “One person is supposed to be tickled by the idea of euthanizing a dog, but the other one is horrified. You pick up from there and go with it. The other girl said she was going to eat me and the dog.”

After the audition, applicants who were selected went through other lessons such as a movement class and advanced character develop-

Actors and actresses wait Wednesday outside Statesville Haunted Prison in Crest Hill before going through their routines. ment training.

Spookers are encouraged to develop their prison persona, from the character’s name and backstory to how they ended up in the prison and survived.

“They take this very seriously,” Fox said.

Makeup is a huge part of making the experience as real as possible. Countless hours are spent turning each spooker into a creature of darkness.

“We spend two to three hours on makeup before it starts,” said makeup artist and Rockford resident Rachel

Stukenberg, who is in her third year at Statesville. “It’s a little freak show.”

Despite it being a chaotic environment, Stukenberg said all the preparation helps everything fall into place.

On Wednesday night, actors positioned themselves in their stations before Kyle Laflamboy, John’s younger brother, led a walk-through where each room’s spookers and effects were examined.

“I was positioning them and making sure they are in safe spots,” Kyle Laflamboy said. “We’ll go through this as many times as it takes to get it right.”

Water main project begins Trustee advocates for PLAINFIELD

intersection upgrades Board to look into turn lanes, light synchronization

By VIKAAS SHANKER vshanker@shawmedia.com PLAINFIELD – Village trustees claim daily traffic congestion at several major intersections in Plainfield have residents clamoring for solutions.

Specifically, Trustee Edward O’Rourke has been asking the board to take a more detailed look into traffic issues at key intersections.

“A number of our intersections back up to a point where people are waiting at peak times, sometimes with three or four lights to get through,” O’Rourke said to trustees and village staff during a Committee of the Whole meeting last week focusing on public works projects.

“Some people are doing illegal activities to avoid those types of scenarios and I think it’s causing a lot of frustration to our local drivers,” O’Rourke said.

Some of those intersections identified by O’Rourke include Route 59 and 135th Street, Route 126 and Route 30, and Route 59 and 127th Street.

O’Rourke asked staff to look at the possibility of putting in right turn lanes at those intersections, and synchronization of lights to allow for smoother traffic flow.

Those topics were brought up by O’Rourke during an

Aug. 3 board meeting, when he asked it to be listed on the agenda for one of the next village meetings before next year’s budget process starts.

The item wasn’t on the agenda last Monday. But Mayor Michael Collins opened up the meeting to a discussion on those topics.

Other trustees agreed with O’Rourke that the traffic buildup at certain intersections is causing issues.

Village officials said the other major intersections, except for Route 59 and 135th Street, weren’t constructed with right turn lanes because there was no development when Route 59 was reconstructed more than 10 years ago.

“We have attempted to get high tech grants for pedestrian paths,” said Randy Jessen, superintendent of public improvements, noting that through those improvements, traffic studies might be conducted in the future to address those intersections.

Collins said another problem with trying to plan for these improvements was funding, which would need to be a partnership between a cash-strapped state and the village.

O’Rourke said Friday he was glad the issue was discussed. But he will continue to ask for more details on alleviating traffic at those intersections.

Trustees were expected to have further discussed intersection improvements during a strategic planning meeting Saturday.

bokon@shawmedia.com JOLIET – A water main replacement project will shut down one lane on Springfield Avenue outside of Presence Saint Joseph Medical Center in Joliet into November.

Work started last week on the project. Springfield Avenue goes past the front of Presence Saint Joseph Medical Center, including the parking garage.

“The garage does remain open,” Presence spokeswoman Lisa Lagger said. “We are collaborating with the city to make sure our visitors can find their way safely to the hospital.”

The construction work runs between Glenwood Avenue and Oneida Street. The southbound lane remains open for traffic coming from Glenwood. Motorists coming north from Jefferson Street will need to drive around the hospital in order to get access to the southbound lane off Glenwood to reach the park-

“I know it has been an inconvenience for folks,” Lagger said. But construction traffic so far “has been absolutely smooth and uneventful,” she added.

Ryan Liang, civil engineer for the city of Joliet, said ambulance access to the emergency room off Glenwood will remain open. He said some concerns were raised about signs guiding traffic through the construction. City officials met with contractor P.T. Ferro Construction Co. at the site Friday to discuss

improved signage.

“We’re very conscious of people not driving northbound on Springfield Avenue,” Liang said.

He said the target date to complete the water main project is Nov. 15, although it could be done earlier. Then, it could take another week to resurface the street.

Liang said the project is important because of past water main breaks on the line. Lagger called the work “much needed maintenance and much appreciated maintenance.”

Two arrested in Joliet slaying

By BRIAN STANLEY bstanley@shawmedia.com JOLIET – Two men have been arrested in connection with the Sept. 27 shooting in Joliet that killed a 20-year-old man.

Darrell L. Stuckey Jr., 24, of the 200 block of Madison Street, was charged Thursday with two counts of murder in the death of Duntell L. Neal Jr., Deputy Police Chief Al Roechner said. Stuckey was arrested Wednesday on several weapons charges.

Arshey T. Harris, 22, of the 0 to 100 block of Pheasant Run Road, also was arrested Thursday on charges of aggravated unlawful use of a weapon and aggravated discharge of a firearm related to the ambush on Neal, Roechner said.

“We received information that Stuckey and Neal had been in a verbal altercation

earlier Sunday night and interviewed him,” Roechner said. “The information witnesses provided was able to link Stuckey and Harris to the shooting.”

Roechner Darrell L. said detectives Stuckey Jr. did not know what started the argument but the victim and suspects are affiliated with local street gangs.

Arshey T. About 11:30 Harris p.m. Sept. 27, Neal was in a car parked outside his residence in the 300 block of Union Street when he was shot multiple times, according to police reports.

The Department of Corrections reports Stuckey has been on parole from the Jacksonville Correctional Center since January. He was sentenced to 15 months in prison in August 2014 after pleading guilty

to theft following an arrest by Shorewood police.

Harris was arrested by Joliet police April 4 on a charge of aggravated unlawful use of a weapon after a drive-by shooting near Fairmont Avenue and Robin Lane where a 25-year-old man was struck in the buttocks.

While awaiting trial on the weapons charge, Harris was released on $6,000 bail with the condition of a 10 p.m. curfew, according to court records.

The lecture hall also will be used as space for events and meetings for students and the community, USF said.

Previous donations from the Bellahs have gone to athletic programs, the communication and media arts department and

other uses.

“Everyone on campus has been touched by their generosity,” USF President Arvid Johnson in the news release.

In a written statement in the news release, William Bellah said, “Most college graduates will say that the only thing their college degree did for

them was open the doors to opportunity in the world. Trish and I feel the education and assistance we received by attending the University of St. Francis and achieving our degrees opened up the world to endless opportunities. Most importantly, we were always treated like family.”

JOLIET – The University of St. Francis has announced a “seven-figure pledge” to be used for a new science building on the school’s Joliet campus.

The pledge was made by alumni William and Patricia Bellah.

USF, in a news release announcing the pledge, only described the amount as “seven-figure,” meaning it is at least $1 million.

The pledge was described as a “lead gift” to be used for the science building, which is scheduled for a groundbreaking in 2016.

A USF spokeswoman said the donation is described as a

pledge because the money is coming in installments rather than as one lump sum.

William Bellah graduated in 1982. Patricia (Banks) Bellah graduated in 1983. They live in Spring, Texas. William is the founder of Compass Chemical International LLC, an importer of phosphoric acid and other chemicals, and recently retired, according to the news release.

The Bellah’s pledge will be recognized in the naming of a 150-seat, multi-purpose lecture hall in the science building, USF said.

The building will be constructed at the corner of Wilcox and Douglas streets. In addition to the lecture hall, it will contain nine teaching laboratories, four research laborato-

12 Joliet police: Parolee robbed man at gunpoint

By BRIAN STANLEY bstanley@shawmedia.com JOLIET – Police stopped a fight Wednesday they said turned out to be a man struggling with a would-be-robber.

Officers were on patrol at 12:52 p.m. in a vehicle when they came across two men fighting near Hickory Street and Western Avenue, according to Joliet Deputy Police Chief Al Roechner.

“They were told to stop and one of the [combatants] said the other had just robbed

him at gunpoint,” Roechner said.

John L. Humphrey, 21, was ordered to the ground and officers found he had been carrying a handgun, Roechner said. The victim and two independent witnesses said John L. Humphrey had Humphrey fired a round while trying to take the man’s money, but did not injure him, Roechner said.

Humphrey, of the 100 block of North Avenue in Lockport, was booked into the Will County jail on charges of armed robbery, aggravated discharge of a firearm, unlawful use of a weapon, unauthorized possession of ammunition and possession of drug paraphernalia. He is being held on $500,000 bond.

The Department of Corrections reports Humphrey has been on parole since March for a previous conviction for aggravated unlawful use of a weapon.

First responders among presenters at White Oak Elementary School

By MIKE MALLORY mmallory@shawmedia.com

Southwest Airlines First Officer and Air Force Reserves Lt. Col. Doug Sterritt tries on his Air Force flying gear Friday for Brooke Olson’s kindergarten class at White Oak Elementary School in Morris. the sky.

“I woke up today and flew to Dallas, then back to Chicago before coming to see you guys,” Sterritt said to the students.

A few students in the class told Sterritt they see airplanes

fly over Morris when they play outside.

“Next time you play outside, look up, and I bet you it’s a Southwest Airlines plane,” Sterritt said. “You can’t see the pilot, but they can see you.

They make sure you’re safe down here.”

He explained the same way there are roads on the ground, there are roadways in the sky for pilots to guide their airplanes toward a safe landing. Sterritt, a father of three students at White Oak Elementary, said he also has participated in Southwest’s Adopt-A-Pilot program, which is similar in that it allows pilots to teach students about aviation. He said he enjoys doing it, and his daughter was actually in the last class he presented to.

“Each one of the classes was great,” Sterritt said. “Once they settle down and before they leave I tell each class they were the best one.”

Olson’s class and Karin Oehlwein’s class made special “Thank You Hero” crafts for local police officers. Olson’s class presented one to Morris Police Officer Scott Ator.

MORRIS – For the past few weeks, kindergarten classes at White Oak Elementary School in Morris have been studying the duties of community helpers and the important role they play in the lives of residents.

On Friday, it was finally time for the classes to meet real community helpers they had been hearing about. All seven classes rotated from station to station, where a series of community helpers set up to give short presentations on their jobs and the ways they help.

Teacher Brooke Olson’s class learned that Trevor Hall, an Elburn and Countryside Fire Protection District firefighter and paramedic, wears 90 pounds of gear when fighting a fire.

“That’s probably as heavy as two kindergarten students,”

he said to the class.

Hall said he’s continued to train for certifications and could be deployed anywhere in the country as part of a technical team. Being a firefighter is a jack-of-all-trades profession, he explained, because firefighters are first responders to fires, car crashes, chemical spills, flooding, water rescues and more.

Most importantly, he said, is that students call 911 if there’s a fire in their home – with one reminder.

“When I put on this suit, I look like a totally different person,” Hall said. “So please don’t hide when we’re in the house, even though we may look scary.”

While community helpers like Hall protect at the ground level, others like Doug Sterritt, a first officer with Southwest Airlines and a lieutenant colonel in the Air Force Reserves, protect the community from

Will County Forest Preserve District to consider new rules for dog park lleonecross@shawmedia.com

Among the changes, preserve police must keep record of warnings and repeat offenses in writing and forgo the use of verbal warnings. The proposed rules also call for a tiered administrative review process for park violators that allows for an appeals process.

The current rules allow the executive director the discretion to ban someone for life or revoke a permit, which Reiners’ supporters argue is unconstitutional and doesn’t allow for due process.

If approved by the board, DeMauro said the new rules allows Reiners the ability to have her permit revocation reviewed by the district. Reiners is the only dog walker registered as a business with the district.

“Once the board approves these changes, Reiners would have to request a review in writing. I have every expectation that we will review it and her permit will be reinstated because the violations [she made] will no longer exist,” DeMauro said.

JOLIET – The Forest Preserve District of Will County’s Board of Commissioners could vote this week on changes to its permit revocation process and park rules for dog-walking businesses in response to concerns raised over the past several months by park users.

The new rules are scheduled for a vote at Wednesday’s board meeting. Under the rules, while business owners will still be limited to three dogs a visit and the fee will remain at $250 a year, businesses will no longer be limited to a total of 10 dogs.

The board has proposed to drop its $25-per-dog fee, but still require the dog’s owner to maintain a valid permit. Pet owners wishing to bring foster dogs to the park may also apply for a special permit.

The policy revisit was prompted by the district’s earlier decision to ban dog walker Deb Reiners for life after she

repeatedly violated park rules.

Executive Director Marcy DeMauro said Reiners would buy permits for her clients’ dogs and did not abide by the 10dog total limit. But when Reiners’ customers and supporters came to her defense, saying the 10-dog limit and fee-a-dog charges were unfair, DeMauro and the board revisited the policy.

“I’m more than happy to pay the business permit,” Reiners said. “But I’m not in a six-figure job. ... I could not live on a 10dog limit.”

Reiners, who operates a dog walk business and once frequented the dog parks, said she doesn’t believe a lifetime ban was fair, but DeMauro said she was only following the ordinance as it was written at the time.

In addition to the fee restructuring, the board also will consider changes to the way police handle citations and the administration handles permit revocations.

• TAXING DISTRICTS

Proposed Special Service Areas

Chamber of Commerce & Industry met Thursday with Hock to ask questions about the plan.

Route 30 – Mall: includes Louis Joliet Mall and surrounding area.

Jefferson Street Region: includes Presence Saint Joseph Medical Center, Oak Leaf Industrial Park and other neighboring business districts).

South Side Intermodal: spreads across south end of Joliet, including CenterPoint Intermodal Center-Joliet, Chicagoland Speedway and Hollywood Casino.

Continued from page 2

Chamber urges city to go slow

If the council approves the plan, the city still would need to hold public hearings for each proposed SSA. The council then would need to give final approval before the SSAs would go into effect.

Chamber officials could not immediately be reached Friday for comment.

But the Chamber on Friday morning sent an email to members saying it has urged the city “to slow down as much as possible.”

“In addition, it is of extreme importance that all possible taxed properties be notified, be given an opportunity to share their thoughts as to how this will affect their property taxes, and receive a proper timeline of expectations,” the email stated.

Hock said the city wants to begin collecting taxes next year so staff can be hired to work on economic development in the proposed SSAs. Without the new tax, the city would not have the money to hire additional economic development staff, he said.

Mayor’s push for economic development

Mayor Bob O’Dekirk, who made economic development a major point in his election

campaign in April, said he did not believe it would be impossible to hire an economic development professional without the SSA revenue. But he did say the city faces the immediate expense to take over the Evergreen Terrace housing project, and there is not much spare money available.

“We know because of Evergreen Terrace there are going to have to be significant changes made,” he said.

“We’re $23 million in the hole right now.”

O’Dekirk in the campaign also criticized his predecessor, Tom Giarrante, for tax hikes and fee increases enacted in the past four years. But he said the SSA plan was developed by staff in response to his call for new ideas for addressing issues in the city.

“I challenged [staff] to be creative,” he said. “I basically said, ‘Let’s have some new, fresh ideas.’ This is one of the things that came forward.”

O’Dekirk said the SSAs would be used for economic development in the created districts and not as a general revenue source for the city.

Continued from page 2 Egizio’s tenure

Egizio’s time as executive director was notable for expansion into new events and facilities.

The park district brought back Taste of Joliet, which has become the city’s premier summer festival, and ventured into the concert business.

Egizio’s resignation came only a day before a first-ofits-kind fall concert staged at Joliet Memorial Stadium featuring popular country performers.

Last year, the park district passed a $19.5 million bond referendum to be used for park improvements and a new indoor recreation facility to be built at Nowell Park.

Search for new director

Egizio had been executive director since April 2004.

Interim Executive Director Matt Pehle will continue in that position until a permanent executive director is named, the park district said in the news release announcing the resignation.

Marcum said he believed it would take two or three months to hire a permanent executive director

I thought of you today, but that is nothing new.

I thought about you yesterday, and days before that too.

I think of you in silence, and often speak your name.

All I have are memories and your picture in a frame.

Your memory is a keepsake for which I’ll never part.

God has you in his arms; I have you in my heart.

Together forever with Mr. B, Dad, and Harley.

Love You & Miss You, Cheryl

Wilmington. Virginia was a kind and loving wife, mother and friend. With her six children, she was always a good listener and never took sides.

She lived by the Rule to never gossip and on the rare occasions when she would give advice on life, we would find out later when not taking it that “Mom was always right.” She always loved visitors, especially the last few years when she was confined inside.

Every card or flower she received she had to share with you.

TIMOTHY LEE RUDDY

Born: Nov. 1, 1947; in Joliet, IL Died: Oct. 1, 2015; in Normal, IL Timothy Lee Ruddy, 67, of Normal, passed away at 4:55 a.m. on Thursday, October 1, 2015, at Heritage Health in Normal.

Funeral services will be held at 2:00 p.m. on Tuesday, October 6, 2015, at Holy Trinity Church, Bloomington, with Rev. Jeffery J. Windy officiating. Visitation will be one hour prior to services.

Carmody-Flynn Funeral Home is handling arrangements.

Tim’s children would like to invite family and friends to join them for a celebration of Tim’s life from 4:00 to 7:00 p.m. on Tuesday at Medici in Normal.

To express condolences online, please visit www.carmodyflynn.com.

Tim was born November 1, 1947, in Joliet, son of Raymond and Anna Mae Ostrem Ruddy.

He was preceded in death by his parents; and brother, Richard Ruddy.

Tim is survived by his older sister, Marianne (Don) Brooks of Joliet.

Also surviving are three children, Emily Woods of Oswego, Ryan (Tara) Ruddy of Indian Harbour Beach, FL and Erin (Caleb Castillo) Ruddy of Chicago; three step-daughters, Victoria (Doug Pride) Van Kirk and Heather (Joseph) Summers, both of Chicago, and Kara (David) Levin of Brooklyn, NY. Also surviving are eight grandchildren, Dylan, Madelyn, Finley, Jeremiah, Isaac, Vivienne, Max & Henry.

If you could judge a man by his book, film, and music collection it would be easy to ascertain that Tim was a captivating, intelligent, and charming man. His smile was

brightest while spending time with his family, listening to Otis Redding, watching Casablanca (or any Bogart film for that matter), satisfying his sweet tooth, or taking in his daily dose of politics. He lived his life with a nostalgic connection to the past where his childhood was formed by equal parts tenderness and discipline.

Tim graduated from Marmion Academy, a military high school in Aurora, IL. His sense of adventure and educational aspirations led him to his undergraduate studies at University of South Carolina. After spending several post-college years as a “free spirit” he married and became a father to his first two children, Emily and Ryan. He pursued a master’s degree from Northern Illinois University (NIU) and became a professor of Political Science. While at Northern, he married a second time and gained three step-daughters, Heather, Kara, and Victoria and became a father one last time to a little girl, Erin.

Tim’s career led him to Illinois State University in the late 1980s where he enlightened, influenced, and challenged thousands of students during his career. Tim would definitely say his most important occupation was fatherhood. He loved the job and it

showed. Tim immensely enjoyed his part in bringing up a blended brood of six children and looked for every opportunity to infuse humor into a day and keep the journey remarkable and fun. He used cleverness and wit to teach his children to take risks and share in his sense of adventure.

He helped his children to become curious and kindhearted individuals with the propensity to continuously seek knowledge from the world around them.

Tim has been a valuable fixture in the Bloomington-Normal community where he could regularly be found in various businesses in Downtown (not Uptown) Normal conversing with and befriending many in the community, especially college students. He has many close friends who will always remember him as a charismatic and free-spirited man.

He could be seen one day in a sport coat and the next day in a Hawaiian shirt, but EVERY day he donned his self-proclaimed “incredible head of red hair”.

His great love for life, friends, family, and especially for his children and grandchildren will undoubtedly live on and he will be missed always.

Six ways for retirees to get some extra income Dear Mr. Berko: My husband and I are in our 70s, and we both retired several years ago from the real estate business.

My husband has had four stents in the past five years.

I’ve started losing my eyesight to macular degeneration, so driving makes me nervous.

We made good money selling homes, but most of it was spent putting our three kids through college and graduate school. We have lived in the same big home for 44 years and don’t have a mortgage.

We have also helped all of the kids buy their homes, and we invest what we can in mutual funds each quarter for our seven grandchildren.

We’ve helped the kids buy cars and appliances, and we’re generous to them on their birthdays. Together our individual retirement accounts are worth nearly $720,000 and

TAKING STOCK Malcolm Berko produce taxable dividend income of $31,000, which is 4.3 percent. We have enclosed our IRAs, which you can see are identical. Our Social Security checks bring in $48,000 a year, so our total income is $79,000, which is pretty good.

During the past two years, our home, health, auto and nursing home insurance costs increased 50 percent. Outof-pocket medical expenses were 30 percent higher than we budgeted, and other living costs just seem to be rising.

I’ll be selling my car because I don’t want to drive, which will save us about $5,000 each year. Is there any way you can increase the yield on our

portfolio by just 2 percent to give us $14,000 more per year?

That would help us out a lot. –

SA, Oklahoma City Dear SA: Your portfolio has

many of the quality issues for dividend growth and income that I’ve recommended over the years. I also see that you’ve reinvested your dividends, as well as the dividends from some preferred issues. And I know it’s kind of a strange feeling, almost like stealing, when invading your IRA principal, which you’ve been doing for two years.

However, I’m sorry to disappoint you, because I can’t improve your income without increasing your risks. I’d be uncomfortable recommending issues yielding over 15 percent, such as TAL International Group, PennantPark, Arlington Asset Investment, Orchard Isle, Nordic Ameri-

can Tankers and hundreds of others. Each would improve your portfolio’s yield, but each would certainly give you a serious case of screaming meemies in this volatile market.

However, there are six reasonable solutions to your problem.

1) Put your husband back to work. Just a couple of sales per year could put you closer to the clover and help with your unexpected expenses.

2) Take in a boarder. In this tight rental market, you might get a lot more for renting a room with kitchen access than you imagine.

3) Downsize. Sell your big home, and move into a mobile home, which you can buy for about $40,000. Then use the remaining cash for current expenses.

4) Immediately, right now,

today, stop enriching your kids and grandkids. They’ll be better off if you let them fend for themselves rather than give them money when they have a whim to be warmed.

Your behavior smacks of insecurity. Stop buying their love.

5) Rent a booth at the flea market and sell Ginsu knives.

6) Finally, I’m surprised you haven’t considered a reverse-annuity mortgage.

There’s lots of bad press about RAMs, but because you folks are knowledgeable, you can easily avoid the potholes. If your home is worth $250,000, you’d get about $1,200 a month, tax-free, without muss, fuss or bother.

Another ‘routine’ school shooting Again.

That was my initial reaction Thursday when I heard of another mass shooting at a school, this time at Umpqua Community College in Roseburg, Oregon.

Ten killed, at least another seven injured, and thousands of people left with an unimaginable, before-thisday, after-this-day, soul-altering moment that defines the rest of their lives.

After the “again” thought came what has become a rote but never-welcomed reaction: My lungs tightened (even though I was sitting down), like the wind just got knocked out of me. I didn’t think I would ever catch my breath. It was followed by a profound sadness for the loss of life, then anger at yet another shooting.

But my thought was not “not again.” Because that would indicate there was an element of surprise and horror that something so terrible could happen. And we now live in a country where, as President Barack Obama said Thursday night, mass shootings are considered routine.

How many have there been? If you consider just shootings on college campuses, there have been 11 since 1996, according to The Associated Press. The Washington Post reported Thursday that in 2015 there had been 294 mass shootings in America; there had, as of that day, been only 274 days in the year. The definition of a mass shooting the Post used was any incident where four or more people are killed or injured by gunfire.

The “routine” after a mass shooting at a school is, well, routine. Politicians

THE FIRST

AMENDMENT

VIEWS Kate Schott offer thoughts and prayers and pontificate about the need for change – words they never intend to put into action. Instead of waiting for authorities to investigate what happened, pundits flood the 24-hour TV news to offer theories about what could have been done to prevent it, or how there should be tighter gun laws, or how everyone should have a weapon.

Given how many mass shootings there have been, I’m surprised they find new ways to say the same sentiment.

I’ve reported on a mass shooting, the Feb. 14, 2008, shooting at Northern Illinois University that left six (including the gunman) dead and another 21 injured. Maybe there is a “routine” for public officials and pundits but let me tell you, there is nothing – nothing – routine about a mass shooting.

The first indication something is very wrong is from the police scanner, which goes from quiet to frantic in seconds as the first calls are made to a 911 dispatch center from a classroom where bullets are flying. Then the first responders on the scene start providing status reports, and ambulances are called, and more backup.

The scanner isn’t quiet for quite some time.

Police and EMTs respond to the unthinkable. You pray that the numbers being overheard on campus are anything but the number of

See SCHOTT, page 33

Congress, the crisis machine There isn’t an American family that’s unaware that a dependable, sustained income is essential for their security and stability. Without it, families lurch from crisis to crisis, unable to plan for a future they can’t fund, unable even to have the luxury of thinking of planning, since their energies are consumed with just staying afloat.

Mothers and fathers know the wear and tear that economic insecurity has on their children, and on themselves.

Even a chronically poor family depends on its meager wages being consistent.

Our American family, this nation, has been in a dysfunctional mode since 1981 when the first full government shutdown occurred. Since then, we’ve had 11 additional shutdowns. Eleven times we’ve endured Congress withholding monies to run the government – usually over disputes about what to spend

VIEWS Donna Brazile the most money on.

There have been times when we faced a grinding halt to the government over an ideological issue. This last week, a shutdown attempt was contrived over suspect, clandestine videos that no court likely would even consider admitting as evidence, since the uncut, unedited versions aren’t available. Last year, Republicans sought to shut down our Department of Homeland Security after the Obama administration signaled it would temporarily halt the deportation of undocumented parents with dependent American children.

Rather than pass a bipartisan comprehensive immigration bill drafted by two current GOP presidential

candidates, they sought to place blame on the president and punish him for acting to address a very challenging crisis.

If your own family couldn’t agree where to spend your income at home, you’d have to be an idiot to cut off that income altogether. And a spouse who repeatedly created an economic crisis to force the other into concessions would provide grounds for divorce.

Nevertheless, that’s what the Republican leadership has been doing for the past seven years. Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell and the retiring House Speaker John Boehner repeatedly manufactured or permitted crises that were designed to extract budget or ideological concessions from the Obama administration.

Look to California for answers

To the Editor: Illinois is in serious trouble. Past corruption, misappropriation, poor governing and bad decisions have placed Illinois in a seemingly insurmountable financial pre-

Rauner on right path

To the Editor: The verbal attacks on Gov. Bruce Rauner by the Illinois AFL-CIO and local Democratic Party politicians Pat McGuire and Larry Walsh Jr. are ludicrous.

Walsh and McGuire should be especially ashamed of their harsh words in that they, and their Democratic Party colleagues, are mostly to blame for the sad fiscal status of the state of Illinois.

The state cannot afford more Democratic Party tantrums that lead to continued deficit spending. Rauner’s way is the correct way to right the Illinois fiscal ship.

If the Democrats continue to have their way, there will be no middle class left in Illinois to pay for the corruptly run social programs or, for that matter, any state programs.

Reporters in the small towns where these incidents tend to occur return to the newsroom with blood on their shoes that is not theirs and somehow find a way to convey what they’ve seen, even though there are no words that can impart just how horrific a school shooting is.

Officials try to find the truth

of what happened and why, although there never truly will be a satisfactory answer as to why it did.

There are few events that outrage me more than a mass shooting at a school; personal experience will do that to a person. I usually try to believe the best in people, and have more hope that needed change and compromise can happen.

As I write this, I am oscillating, minute to minute, between grief and fury. That’s not usually the best time to have faith in anything.

But when it comes to this topic ... hope is fleeting. I am resigned to the thought that, as always, nothing will change when it comes to providing the mental health care needed in

this country, or sensible laws that at least attempt to make it harder to keep guns out of the hands of those who should not have them.

I pray that I’m wrong, that this country can find a way to balance the Second Amendment guarantees with the right of others to live. But I fear I’m not, and it will only be a matter of time until I feel, while sitting down, like the wind was just knocked out of me.

bay auto shop facility. We are extremely opposed to this.

This type of business is not amicable to our homes and lives. The fact that Route 59 Auto Repair wants to squeeze an industrial business between a preschool and 42 feet from residential homes will not only destroy a peaceful environment, but will diminish the quality of our lives due to noise pollution, environmental pollution, crime and other concerns that come with this type of business. We are very concerned of a decrease in property value due to the above-mentioned hazards.

The EPA has stated on its website, “noise pollution is harmful to your health.”

We have a young mother who is battling non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma (incurable cancer) that lives directly behind the proposed building site. Others of us are home all day sleeping due to working night shifts. Also there are two families with very small children who play in their backyards whenever the weather permits.

We have children coming home from school who need quiet to nap or study.

Bedroom windows are exposed at the rear of the homes and this would diminish the peacefulness. The property in question is more suitable for office space or something of that nature.

We are asking the Plainfield Planning Commission and Village Board to deny Route 59 Auto a special-use permit for the two-acre section of land that Route 59 Auto proposes to build on.

Thank you, Todd and Maureen Lentz Plainfield

Shutdown effects devastating • BRAZILE

Continued from page 32 crises over a “fiscal cliff” or a shutdown about three times a year since 2011.

Shutdowns began under Ronald Reagan; there were eight shutdowns during his two terms. George H.W. Bush, Bill Clinton and Barack Obama each faced at least one shutdown, not to mention uncounted “to the brink” efforts that were averted.

A nonpartisan organization, Partnership for Public Service, released a thorough study recently on the effect government shutdowns have on the government itself. Merely

the threat of a shutdown has effects as adverse as actual shutdowns, which are devastating.

Bright, talented young people are being driven away from seeking jobs with the government.

They see no money to hire them, no guarantee of a consistent paycheck if they are hired and an unstable work atmosphere where their talents cannot flourish.

To the Editor: Illinois Department of Transportation, Larry Walsh Sr., and John Grueling, give Robert Murphy credit where credit is due on his proposal for the third lane idea on Interstate 80 and Interstate 55.

Read the letter to the editor on page 38 of the Sunday, June 1, 2014, edition of The (Joliet) Herald-News; or the Sound Off section in the June 4, 2014, edition of The Free Press Advocate; or refer to a verbal presentation at Wilmington City Hall on July 16, 2014.

Robert Murphy’s idea was to extend a third lane on I-55 from I-80 south to the Coal City exit, and extend a third lane on I-80 from New Lenox exit on Route 30, west to the Minooka exit. Then there is no need for the Illiana boondoggle.

In observation, IDOT, John Grueling, and Larry Walsh Sr. were all fast-tracked and hot-wired for the proposed Illiana boondoggle. Therefore, they could not comprehend Robert Murphy’s third lane concept for I-80 and I-55. About 13,000 signatures on petitions were signed against the proposed Illiana boondoggle.

Now IDOT, INDOT, take your proposed Illiana boondoggle, get out and stay out.

dicament. Our credit rating is falling, we have a pension crisis that is escalating by the minute, we still do not have a usable budget, our schools are suffering from inadequate funding, and there is seemingly no end in sight.

Does any of this sound familiar? It should: From before 2005 through 2011 California had many of the same problems.

Their financial issues made the headlines regularly. However, we don’t hear any of California’s problems any more. In fact, California has gone from near bankruptcy and serious budget deficits to a budget surplus. How? Californians elected Democrat Jerry Brown as governor in 2011.

Although Brown slashed many social services, the most rewarding change he imposed was creating a fair income tax that mainly affected persons making more than $250,000 per year. He didn’t attack labor unions as Rauner is doing; he simply raised the income tax for the wealthy.

Why doesn’t Mr. Rauner do this in Illinois? Because doing so would place a tax on himself costing thousands! Instead, Rauner feels the need to push his “turnaround agenda” including right-to-work (for less).

Fact is, there is no real data that supports the claim that RTW (for less) laws “improve the economy, create jobs and foster new businesses” as Rauner insists.

My suggestion to the readers of this publication is to contact your representatives, use social media, and reach out to your friends and relatives to send a message to Mr. Rauner asking him to follow the proven formula used by California; it

FOOTBALL: PLAINFIELD EAST 21, MINOOKA 16

By DICK GOSS dgoss@shawmedia.com

• Sunday, October 4, 2015

MINOOKA – When Minooka’s John Carnagio connected with Jake Adams in the back of the end zone with a 4-yard touchdown pass in the closing seconds of the first half Friday night, that extended the Indians’ lead to 10 points.

It appeared they were well on their way to their fifth victory in six games.

However, everything changed in the third quarter. Plainfield East scored 21 straight points and held on to knock off the Indians, 21-16, in their Southwest Prairie battle.

“It was crazy,” said East linebacker Troy Mayon. “Endurance was our word. Even when we were down at halftime, we said we just had to keep doing our job the right way, and things would go our way.”

“There’s a lot we have to work on, but this was one of our better team efforts,” said defensive lineman Donald Manning, who applied heavy pressure to Carnagio all night.

Carnagio’s touchdown pass to Adams capped a 54-yard drive that began when Blake Parzych sacked East quarterback Matt Mazurkiewicz on a fourth-down play with 48 seconds left in the half. Earlier, Brennan Loughran had kicked a 40-yard field for Minooka (4-2, 2-2), which missed a few scoring opportunities.

A 68-yard run by Elijiah Williams, a transfer from Providence making his Minooka debut, gave the Indians a first down at the 22 of the Bengals (2-4, 2-2) to open the second half. Minooka then had a third-and-1, but East, led by Mayon, stuffed two straight running plays.

A Jon Butler interception gave Minooka the ball back in Bengals’ territory, but the Indians again could not move against the East defense. The Bengals then marched the ball down the field and scored on a Mazurkiewicz 6-yard pass to Jeremy Reitz.

On fourth down during Minooka’s next possession, a high snap out of punt forma-

Mayon took it in on the next play to make it 14-10 East.

Then after Minooka linebacker Carson Oughton recovered a fumble at the 5-yard line to thwart an East threat, the Bengals’ David Salazar intercepted a pass that went through the receiver’s hands and took it in from 5 yards out for a 21-10 lead.

“We had just too much to overcome,” Minooka coach Paul Forsythe said. “The interception that went through the receiver’s hands, the high snap, we had mistakes [in coverage] on the outside and some costly penalties. We killed ourselves all night. We did not deserve to win.”

The Indians scored in the fourth quarter on Carnagio’s

scrambling 25-yard pass to Isaiah Hll to get within 2116, then had one more shot.

But after Minooka earned a first-and-goal at the Bengals’ 8-yard line, the East defense stiffened to end it as Carnagio’s fourth-down pass to the end zone was on target, but the receiver could not hold on when the Bengals’ secondary moved in.

“Our quarterback was outstanding down the stretch,” Forsythe said of Carnagio, who completed 21 of 44 passes for 201 yards and two touchdowns. “Even that play at the end should have been a touchdown.”

Carnagio had to scramble away from the Bengals’ pressure on numerous occasions.

“We knew they were a pass-

ing team, so we did our blitzes,” said Manning, who along with fellow defensive linemen Kyle McMahan, Dylan Koch and Thomas Linnear kept the heat on Carnagio. “We knew if we could keep pressure on the quarterback, we could get this game.”

Minooka outgained East, 352 yards to 109, and the Bengals had a net of zero yards rushing. However, the Indians, as Forsythe said, had too many mistakes, especially in the second half.

“Every time we come here, it seems like the longest game of the year,” East coach Mike Romeli said. “Two years ago, we came here and the fourth quarter seemed like it lasted two hours.

“I have to give our guys a

lot of credit. We came here 1-4 and we needed something to happen well. Then we’re down, 10-0. But we made some plays and kept pushing and fighting. They were 4-1, but we knew we could stay close with them.”

Mazurkiewicz finished 8 of 20 for 109 yards. He hit Jalen Hutt with huge 39- and 38-yard passes in the third quarter.

Hutt finished with four catches for 93 yards.

Williams closed with 136 yards on 23 carries and caught four passes for 45 yards for Minooka.

Hill caught nine passes for 102 yards.

“He had an injury, just got cleared to play,” Forsythe said of Williams. “He did some nice things.”

Delaney Stutzki caught three passes for 55 yards and a touchdown in Morris’ 35-21 loss Friday to DeKalb.

FOOTBALL: DEKALB 35, MORRIS 21

Quick start leads DeKalb past Morris

By ROB OESTERLE roesterle@shawmedia.com MORRIS – For the final three minutes of the second quarter and all of the second half Friday night, the Morris football team outscored DeKalb, 21-7.

Unfortunately for the Redskins, DeKalb dominated the early going, jumping out to a 28-0 lead that helped carry the Barbs to a 35-21 Northern Illinois Big XII East Division win.

“I hate losing,” Morris coach Alan Thorson said.

“Let me start with that. But, I loved the fact that we kept working and outscored them in the second half. There was fight and heart in every one of our kids, and that’s some-

thing we can build on. Our offense moved the ball, but we hurt ourselves at times with turnovers. I thought our runner was down on the fumble, but you still can’t lose the ball.”

Morris (3-3, 0-2 NI Big 12 East) thought it had DeKalb pinned early in the game, downing a punt on the DeKalb 1-yard line. The Barbs, however, turned the tables and scored on a 97-yard touchdown pass from Derek Kyler to Cole Tucker.

It was one of three TD catches by Tucker and one of four scoring passes for Kyler, the other going to James Robinson.

Turnovers helped DeKalb build its lead, as Ben Roelfsema intercepted a pass at the

Morris 30 and returned it 24 yards to the 6-yard line. On the next play, Kyler hit Tucker in the flat for a touchdown.

Later in the second quarter, Morris drove to the DeKalb 20 before fumbling and DeKalb recovered at the 15. On the seventh play of the ensuing drive, Kyler connected with Tucker for a 15-yard touchdown and a 28-0 lead with 3:43 to play until halftime.

But Morris didn’t quit. The Redskins drove 30 yards to the DeKalb 36, where Keagan Sobol caught a backward pass from Nathan Guth and threw a pass of his own to a wideopen Delaney Stutzki for a 36yard touchdown, bringing the score to 28-7 at halftime.

DeKalb received the sec-

ond-half kickoff and scored on a nine-yard run by David Long – who finished with 209 rushing yards on 26 carries – to take a 35-7 lead.

Morris answered quickly, as Guth hit Balentine along the left sideline for a 38-yard touchdown.

“DeKalb is a good team with a lot of speed and skill,” Thorson said. “They are very well-coached, and we went toe-to-toe with them, especially in the second half. Another thing I was happy with was that we had no penalties.

We had one on defense, but they declined it. I challenged these guys all week, and they stepped up to the challenge.”

DeKalb drove to the Morris 11, but Michael Cryder intercepted Kyler in the end

zone to get the ball back. The Redskins drove down to the DeKalb 10, but a fourth-down pass fell incomplete.

Morris finally capped the scoring with an 80-yard drive in the fourth quarter that ended with a three-yard touchdown run by Michael Feeney, who led the team with 95 rushing yards on 14 carries.

“When we were behind 280, this game could have gotten ugly,” Thorson said. “But our guys didn’t give up, and I am proud of them for that.

We have some good teams yet to play in Kaneland and Sycamore, but if we can continue what we did in the second half, I think our team wil be fine and we will make the playoffs.”

LOYOLA ACADEMY 31, PROVIDENCE CATHOLIC 7

By CURT HERRON cherron@shawmedia.com

• Sunday, October 4, 2015

NEW LENOX – Loyola Academy showed why it has one of the top-ranked teams in the state when it met Providence Catholic in a Chicago Catholic League Blue game on Friday.

The Ramblers outgained the Celtics 342-86 and jumped out to a 17-point lead at halftime to help them roll to an 31-7 victory, as they spoiled homecoming festivities at Senffner Field.

“There’s not one guy that stands out, they’re just a solid, physical team,” Celtics coach Mark Coglianese said. “Going through the playoffs, I don’t know if a team with more athletes can maybe get them. But they’re very strong in all areas.

We’d get a good gain but then they’d come back and stuff us or get a sack and then put us back on our heels again.”

Dara Laja rushed for 165 yards on 25 carries and scored on runs of 74 and 4 yards, while Emmett Clifford was 17 of 23 passing for 142 yards and threw touchdown passes of 23 and 15 yards to lead the way for Loyola (6-0, 2-0).

Providence (2-4, 1-2) managed 57 yards on the ground and 29 through the air as it picked up only four first downs and was forced to punt on each of its nine possessions.

Brendan O’Hara, Brad Jenner and Dan McDonald were among the leading tacklers for the Celtics defense, which only allowed a 25-yard field goal by Patrick Tata in the first quarter while forcing the Ramblers to go three-and-out twice and kick two of their three punts.

But then Laja took over, carrying the ball nine times, to lead Loyola to a 72-yard scoring drive on 12 plays and a 74-yard touchdown run on the first play when it got the ball back.

The Ramblers’ first touchdown was a 23-yard strike from Clifford to Eric Eshoo.

Laja collected 104 of his rushing yards and both of his catches for 15 yards during those two key series. The Ramblers piled up 222 of their yards during the opening half to help them grab a 17-point lead.

In the final half, Loyola put together another long drive the

by Laja.

Loyola needed eight plays to cover 40 yards to go up 31-0 ear-

ly in the fourth quarter when Clifford tossed a 15-yard pass to David Terrell (seven catches, 63 yards).

Mike Markasovic, who rushed for 48 yards on 15 carries, provided the Celtics with their lone highlight when he

returned a kickoff 90 yards for a touchdown on the ensuing kickoff.

Providence, the defending Class 7A champions, needs to win its last three games in order to make the playoffs.

That includes road contests

Since 1991, the Celtics have advanced to the postseason in each season but 2010, when they were 1-5 at this point.

They were 2-4 through six weeks in 2006 to ’08 and managed to not only win their final three games but also advance to at least the quarterfinals.

With several offensive linemen out and running back Richie Warfield not expected to return until perhaps the Brother Rice game, the Celtics coach understands the challenge at hand.

“It’s certainly not going to be easy and playing in this conference we know that things aren’t going to be easy,” Coglianese said. “Hopefully we start to get a little healthy. Our seniors have a lot of heart and we’re going to go to battle with what we have. Sure, we’d like to have a better record right now, but our guys are going to keep competing and keep fighting.”

FOOTBALL: SANDBURG 55, JOLIET CENTRAL 19

Joliet Central falls after leading early

By LARRY LINDHOLM Shaw Media Correspondent JOLIET – Things started with a rush of excitement Friday night at Joliet Central.

The Steelmen scored on their first two possessions and forced a Sandburg fumble in between as they raced out to a 13-point lead in the SouthWest Suburban Blue battle.

However, Sandburg came back to score twice to take a 14-13 lead after one quarter and wound up putting 55 straight points on the board

en route to a 55-19 victory that kept the Eagles tied with Homewood-Flossmoor atop the league standings.

“What you saw out there early was not a fluke, we did not run any trick plays,” Central coach Brett Boyter said.

“We executed our fundamentals.”

Jomarre McNair caught a deflected pass from quarterback Zach Wisneski and took it to the end zone to complete a 38-yard play that gave the Steelmen (0-6, 0-4) an immediate lead After Jeremy Fennewald

recovered a Sandburg fumble, Wisneski hit McNair for a 36-yard scoring strike and the 13-0 lead midway through the first quarter.

The Steelmen still were within 21-13 at halftime, but things went south in the third quarter, which ended with the Eagles (5-1, 4-0) in command, 41-13.

After Sandburg tacked on two more touchdowns in the fourth quarter, Ernest Grant scored the final Central touchdown from a yard out with 11 seconds remaining.

He finished with 142 yards

in 25 attempts after having a modest 25 yards at halftime “Ernest Grant gives this team a boost,” Boyter said.

“He has worked so hard. He has the discipline to get the job done.

“He had a very good night, but I also have to give credit to the guys in the trenches.

Yes, Grant runs hard, but he needs some holes to run through and our line did that tonight. We are making strides. Our quarterback [Wisneski] is progressing, and tonight he made some very good decisions. We had

no turnovers.”

Boyter said he was proud of the way his team stayed in the game and was able to come back and score at the end.

“We did not quit,” he said.

“But at times, we had some lapses of who was to play where, what are my duties and responsibilities? The effort was there and that is why I love coaching these kids.

They are giving it their all on the field, they are invested in each other and they are invested as a team. That means a lot.”

Lincoln-Way Central now Montalvo scores 5 TDs to lead Lincoln-Way West 3-3 with Thornridge win

By DENNIS NELSON Shaw Media Correspondent SOUTH HOLLAND – Lincoln-Way West put its fate on the shoulders of its offensive line Friday, and it delivered.

Gabe Montalvo rushed for 196 yards and a career-high five touchdowns, propelling the Warriors to a 41-0 SouthWest Suburban Conference Red road win over Thornwood (1-5, 0-4).

The victory means Lincoln-Way West (5-1, 3-1) moves a step closer to a playoff spot.

“That’s kind of our thing,” West coach Dave Ernst said of leaning on the offensive line. “We have a good offensive line. When things get tough, we usually lean on them to get it done and they did tonight.”

“I just rallied everyone together and tried to get everybody going,” senior captain and offensive lineman Bryan Brokop said. “As a whole, we just pounded them and came together as an offensive line.”

Montalvo did most of his damage in the first half. The senior had 156 yards and five touchdowns during the first two quarters and eclipsed 1,000-yard mark for the second straight season.

“He was ticked off today about some things that happened and he took it to the field,” Ernst said. “He’s a great back. He wants the ball more and more, and we’re going to ride

him.”

“Gabe is an animal,” Brokop said. “He keeps fighting. His yards after contact were insane tonight.”

West, which is ranked No. 10 in Class 5A by the Associated Press, did not punt in the first half. Instead, Montalvo ran for scores of 2, 18, 23, 1 and 7 yards.

The Warrior defense forced two first-half turnovers. Matthew Murphy had an interception and Keaton McCahill recovered a fumble at the Thunderbird 10, which set up a score. Thornwood had 16 yards of offense until its final drive of the game.

In a somber moment, Thornwood’s James Walker III was carted off the field via ambulance after breaking his leg midway through the first quarter. Cal Pohrte ran 3 yards for the final score with 2:08 left.

“We had a tough loss last week against Thornton,” Brokop said.

“We had to get this win to boost our confidence. Now, we have to keep going.”

“We’re just trying to get better every week,” Ernst said. “We have five wins now. We’re not sure if we have enough (playoff) points. But, if we can get six next week, we’ll get into the playoffs and, hopefully, make a run.”

“We can’t worry about the playoffs now,” Brokop said. “We have to finish off the season strong.”

By TIM CRONIN Shaw Media Correspondent DOLTON – Lincoln-Way Central’s football team would have reassembled at 7:30 a.m. Saturday regardless of Friday night’s outcome at Thornridge.

This time, being on dawn patrol might have felt like punishment.

Few were smiling on the Knights’ sideline, even though Central (3-3, 2-2) scored a 22-6 SouthWest Suburban Red victory.

The outcome was positive and the defense was good. After that, coach Jeremy Cordell’s list of things to work on runs from here to eternity.

“The bottom line is, our offensive side of the ball needs to step up and answer the bell,” Cordell said.

The Knights gained 284 yards, 179 on the ground, with Dan Eber gaining 65 on 10 carries. But the ineffectiveness was seen too often, punctuated by a trio of turnovers, stuck in Cordell’s craw.

So did 42 yards in offensive penalties, plus two more calls declined by Thornridge when forcing turnovers.

“Those are things we can control,” Cordell said. “That’s got to be cleaned up.”

The good news came on defense, where the Falcons (1-5, 0-4) were held to their lowest output of the season, largely because of a first half where the Knights limited them to 6 yards and minus-1 on the ground.

Only after the issue had been decided with Zach Rudsinski’s 5-yard run for

a 22-0 lead with 9:47 to play was Thornridge, exclusively in the air, able to move the ball consistently.

“I’m super proud,” Cordell said.

“Just watching them kind of form our identity, start to buy in to what we’re trying to do, I’m really proud of that.”

The Knights had taken a 14-0 halftime lead despite the trio of turnovers.

Nico Muto’s 3-yard plunge with 4:22 left in the first quarter followed the first of Thornridge’s two first-half turnovers (the Falcons also had three giveaways).

The most polished drive of the half resulted in quarterback Austin Strilko’s 1-yard plunge, the last snap of a 10-play, 57-yard series, 3:02 into the second quarter.

The Knights made it 22-0 on a 5-yard dash by Rudsinski (49 yards, 14 carries) with 9:47 remaining. Strilko was 6 of 11 for 105 yards two interceptions.

Thornridge’s score, a 5-yard completion from Cornell Ousley to Treyance Rawls, came with 5:41 to play.

Cordell, like every other coach in the four-school Lincoln-Way group, doesn’t know what will happen when four schools become three with the closure of North, where George Czart is the coach. Cordell left Glenbard South to join Central’s staff and faculty this year. If there’s a timetable for finding out, he didn’t share it.

“I’m confident in my abilities,” Cordell said.

Thornridge won the sophomore game, 14-12.

Johnson is playing the position because senior running back Harry Davis broke his ankle earlier this season.

“They’ve made it really easy for me,” Johnson said. “All of the seniors help me out a lot. They made the transition to being a starter an easy one. I love running behind those guys on the line. I give all the credit to them.”

Senior Michael Johnson also scored two touchdowns against the Spartans. One came on a 3-yard run, and another on a 69-yard burst.

He finished with 134 yards rushing after playing only the first half.

Senior defensive tackle Ken Aguirre even got in on the scoring act by blocking a punt and recovering it in the end zone for a touchdown in the second quarter.

“We weren’t supposed to block a punt, but I was doing my job and I was able to get through,” Aguirre said.

“It felt pretty good to get my first touchdown.”

Earl finished with 104 yards passing and backup quarterback Patrick Roth played in the first half and threw for 30 yards and one touchdown, a 7-yard screen pass to fullback Josh Parenti. Running back Alex McInerney also scored a touchdown in the second half.

“It was a great win, but there are a couple of things we have to clean up,” Sharp said. “We had some turnovers [two fumbles] in the first half that were uncharacteristic of us, but overall, I liked what we did. We ran our hurry-up offense, our no huddle, with Cade running it. I thought the passing game was well executed, and I thought our fullback ran really well. I thought we played well defensively, and we got a blocked punt on special teams.”

The Hilltoppers rushed for 236 yards in the first half and threw for 134 yards while holding the Spartans to 43 yards in the first half.

FOOTBALL: PLAINFIELD NORTH 49, PLAINFIELD CENTRAL 7

Plainfield North’s Ekowa dominates Plainfield Central

By KEVIN RYAN Shaw Media Correspondent PLAINFIELD – With the fall season settling in and wind gusts of 20 mph Friday at Plainfield North, the wind blew in favor of the Tigers and their quarterback JD Ekowa as they defeated District 202 rival Plainfield Central, 49-7, in Southwest Prairie play.

“I thought we executed really well and got off to a fast start,” North coach Tim Kane said. “I’m really proud of our kids. With homecoming week and the distractions, and with playing a crosstown rival, our kids stayed focused.”

Ekowa (4 for 8 passing, 149 yards) got the homecoming excitement started right away by scoring on the Tigers’ first offensive play on a 25-yard run.

The senior quarterback then led his offense to the end zone on the following three possessions with a 1-yard quarterback sneak, a 48-yard pass to senior wide receiver Zach Jarosz and capped it off with another 1-yard sneak to put the Tigers (4-2, 3-1) quickly up, 28-0.

“He’s been getting better, better and better each week

Larry W. Kane for Shaw Media

Plainfield North’s Carlods Baggett looks up field for a touchdown run against Plainfield Central on Friday at Plainfield North High School in Plainfield. Plainfield North beat Plainfield Central, 49-7. and it’s really good to see him run the ball,” Kane said of his quarterback. “He has been throwing the ball quite a bit early, and now he’s getting more comfortable running the ball more.”

After a Wildcats punt in

the second quarter, the Tigers kept the momentum in their favor with running back Tyler Hoosman (16 carries, 71 yards) setting up a drive with runs of 28 and 12 yards, putting the Tigers on Central’s 15 yard line. From

there, Carlos Baggett (four carries, 30 yards) ran it in from 15 yards out to make it 35-0.

“When I saw what the wind was like, I wanted to get up early,” Kane said. “We talked to the kids about get-

ting the momentum early and get some scores on them.”

The Tigers continued their offensive dominance on the final drive of the first half, with Ekowa targeting tight end Kyle Speas (two catches, 68 yards) on a 42yard gain. Two plays later, Hoosman dove into the end zone, making it 42-0.

To end the second quarter, Central (0-6, 0-4) did have a bright spot when quarterback Cameron Cercone (who filled in for an injured Marcus Hayes) threw a 62-yard touchdown pass to wide receiver Nate Graves (three catches, 70 yards).

“Our attitude has to improve,” Wildcats coach John Jackson said. “Our desire has to improve. I’m not used to this and we have to buckle up and work hard. Within the coming week, we’ll have to regroup.”

To put the finishing touches on the night for North, junior Kevin Block had an 80-yard kick return for a touchdown. From that point, a running clock was enforced and the Tigers cruised through the second half, getting an early start to their homecoming celebrations.

FOOTBALL: WILMINGTON 31, HERSCHER 28

Streaks alive, Wilmington holds off Herscher

By DRAKE SKLEBA Shaw Media Correspondent HERSCHER – Three numbers describe Wilmington’s heart-stopping, 31-28 Interstate Eight Small showdown victory over Herscher on Friday night.

20 – The defending Class 3A state champions (6-0, 4-0) won their 20th consecutive game.

41 – The Wildcats won their 41st consecutive conference game going back to Week 6 of the 2007 season.

8 – With the win over Herscher (4-2, 3-1), the Wildcats clinched a tie for their eighth consecutive conference title. A win over Seneca Friday will mean No. 8 outright.

With Wilmington leading, 31-13, with four minutes left, Herscher rallied behind quarterback Tyler Jones (15 of 28 for

285 yards and three TDs). Jones hit Tyler Stewart (six catches, 166 yards, two touchdowns) for TD strikes of 86 and 26 yards to bring the Tigers within 31-28 with 1:58 to go.

The Wildcats weren’t able to breathe until Herscher’s onside kick failed to go 10 yards.

“I told the kids that I am so proud of them for this huge win,” Wilmington coach Jeff Reents said. “It not only was our 20th consecutive win and our 41st consecutive I-8 win, but also clinched our 20th consecutive playoff spot.”

Wilmington’s Owen Weaver opened the Wildcats scoring with a 77-yard run a minute and a half into the game for a 7-0 lead. Jones hit running back Matt Alsip for a 35-yard touchdown to tie the score at 7, after one quarter.

With 10:50 left in the half,

Hawkins capped a nine-play, 87-yard drive with a 41-yard run to give Wilmington a lead it would not relinquish, 14-7.

Defensive back Dylan Wallace picked off Jones at the 10:06 mark of the half and linebacker Brett McWilliams’ fumble recovery led to a 10-play, 42-yard drive, capped by Weaver’s second touchdown from 4 yards out. Alex Hatten’s 29-yard field goal made it 24-7 at halftime.

Alsip scored on a 5-yard run to pull Herscher within 24-13 with 9:16 left in the third quarter. Keaton Hansen fell on a bad snap over the Herscher punter’s head in the end zone for a 31-13 lead with 11:05 left.

The Wildcats amassed 406 yards on the ground, led by Weaver’s 208 on 22 carries and Hawkins’ 134 on 22 tries. Nick Pretto added 38 yards on seven carries before exiting with an

ankle injury.

“Our offensive line is amazing and did a great job for us,” Weaver said. “This was a great team victory.”

Wildcat quarterback Jeff Treadman, who is 5 for 8 for 58 yards on the season, was 1 for 2, including an 18-yard strike to Weaver.

“Another team effort here at Wilmington,” Hawkins said.

“I owe it all to our outstanding offensive line.”

The offensive line of center Ben Studer, guards Robert Van Duyne and Blake Guise and tackle Baily Boswell paved the road for Weaver and Hawkins all night.

“Our ‘O’ line really blocked well tonight. This was a total team victory,” Studer said.

“We blocked well, but Nick and Owen ran so hard for us. They are both great backs.”

The Wildcats’ defense, led

by McWilliams, held Herscher to minus-18 yards rushing.

Alsip who had rushed for 523 yards in his first five games, was held to 16 yards on seven carries and a rushing touchdown. Defensive end Sam Jones had a sack for Wilmington.

“We played great team defense,” McWilliams said. “We really shut their ground game down and got out of here with a big win.”

“Our line really blocked well and Owen [Weaver] had a great game,” Reents added.

“Nick [Hawkins] is an AllStater and had another good game. With Owen’s emergence in our backfield, he really creates problems for opposing defenses. I was very happy with our holding Herscher to minus yards rushing, too.”

FOOTBALL: COAL CITY 41, STREATOR 12

Defense, running game power Coal City Plano explodes late

By MARK JOHNSON Shaw Media Correspondent STREATOR – Five interceptions by its defense and a combined five touchdowns by its two primary running backs keyed Coal City to a 41-12 Interstate Eight Conference Large football defeat of Streator on Friday.

Brad Littleton and Danny Kroeger each had two interceptions for the Coalers, who are now 4-2 overall and 3-1 in conference play, with Junior Arias adding the fifth. For Kroeger, a junior, they are the first two interceptions of his varsity career.

“It’s a great feeling,” Kroeger said. “Just been a lot of hard work to get to this point.”

Nick Hayden was the more frequent scorer of the two Coaler backs, getting three touchdowns to Joe Starkey’s two, but Starkey rolled up 178 yards on 16 carries to Hayden’s 77 on 11.

“I told him in the hallway today, I said, ‘Joe, you’re going to have a good game.’ Just the way he practiced,” Coal City coach Lenny Onsen said. “We got the offensive line doing some things, and then Nick coming in there, changing the pace a little bit.”

“It’s a great feeling. Just been a lot of hard work to get to this point.”

Danny Kroeger Coal City football player

The Coal City offense did not exactly come charging out of the gate, however. Its first drive ended in an interception, and its next two in punts. Coal City’s offense did not touch the ball when Streator went three-and-out at that point, as the Coalers lost a fumble on the resultant punt.

But after a kick catch interference penalty when the Bulldogs punted back to the Coalers, they found a groove. Quarterback Nick Micetich’s rolled out and took off for an eight-yard touchdown run that broke a scoreless tie halfway through the second quarter. The Coalers needed all of two plays to score again after forcing another Streator punt, as Hayden broke off a 27-yard touchdown run. The Bulldogs hit a 33-yard touchdown pass from Christian Price to Isaiah Jones just before halftime to keep it a one-possession game.

A Hayden 17-yard carry to the

end zone late in the third quarter started the transformation of the game into a rout. A Kroeger interception on the first play of the fourth quarter led to a Joe Starkey 3-yard touchdown run, and a Littleton pick was followed by another Hayden score from one yard out. Starkey followed a long Bulldog touchdown run with yet another score as time wound down.

The Coalers can become playoff eligible next week with a victory over currently unbeaten Manteno.

“We challenged ’em to play better in the second half. I thought they answered the bell, and hopefully it’s something we can improve on and keep moving on,” Onsen said. “We got a tough home game next week against Manteno, we got to play extremely well, but hopefully we took some strides tonight.”

to beat Peotone SUBMITTED REPORTS

PLANO – Peotone and Plano were locked in a scoreless battle with less than six minutes left Friday night.

Plano, however, scored all three of its touchdowns in less than five minutes and went on to win the Interstate Eight Large game, 21-6.

Plano was up, 21-0, before Peotone quarterback Kale Maupin hit Alex Panning with a 12yard pass with 29.3 seconds left. Maupin ended with 89 yards passing and Chandler Gartner finished with 113 yards rushing. Peotone (2-4, 1-3) had 213 total yards of offense to Plano’s 268.

HIGHLIGHTS Bolingbrook 37, Stagg 7: After a Bolingbrook

fumble resulted in a first-quarter Stagg touchdown, the Raiders (3-3, 2-2) rebounded in a big way. Bolingbrook scored a field goal with a minute remaining in the quarter, then dominated for the remainder of the SouthWest Suburban Blue game.

Joe Coates had a 41-yard scamper to put Bolingbrook up, 10-7. Coates connected with Kendall Smith on a 24-yard touchdown and Jaylen Griffin had a 15-yard TD run. Jazontae Howard’s 45-yard burst put the Raiders on the 7, and Jeremiah Lebron finished the drive with a TD. Izayah Green-May led the defense with backto-back sacks in the second quarter.

FOOTBALL: PLAINFIELD SOUTH 55, ROMEOVILLE 14

By SCOTT EHLING Shaw Media Correspondent

• Sunday, October 4, 2015

JOLIET – A good, dominating defense can be just the elixir that Plainfield South coach Ken Bublitz needs if his Cougars are to have an outside chance of making the playoffs this year.

Plainfield South certainly demonstrated that domination on defense, allowing 118 yards of total offense, forcing three turnovers, returning a fumble for a touchdown and blocking a punt out of the end zone that resulted in a safety en route to a 55-14 homecoming victory over Romeoville in Southwest Prairie action Friday.

The Cougars scored in all three phases of the game and were led offensively by running back Jake Maher (18 rushes, 97 yards, two touchdowns) and quarterback Nicholas Deppe (three carries, 17 yards, touchdown).

Also, Mitchell Ganassin returned a punt 70 yards for a touchdown and defensive back Kevin Valentine added a 20-yard fumble recovery for a touchdown. Running back Jordan Nettles led the Spartans with 118 combined yards of offense and a touchdown.

“Defensively, we were outstanding from the start and they set the tone,” Bublitz said. “We were able to capitalize on good field position early and we kept Romeoville on their heels throughout most of the game.”

Heading into the game, the Cougars defense had only allowed 51 points through five games (10.2 average) and had not allowed a touchdown in three conference games.

South (3-3, 3-1) couldn’t have asked for a better start, as the defense forced a threeand-out by Romeoville and then took advantage of the windy conditions and great field position deep inside Spartans’ territory.

Five plays later, Maher scored his first of two touchdowns from 8 yards out for a 7-0 lead with 7:40 left in the first quarter.

‘We needed this win,” Maher said. “A lot of credit goes to the offensive line as they opened up holes for me.”

South extended its lead to 14-0 when Maher scored his second touchdown on an 8-yard run with 1:42 left in the first quarter.

The Cougars’ defense forced a Spartans turnover on the next play. South capitalized three plays later, as Deppe found wideout Dolphin Mitchell Jr. in the back of the end zone for an 8-yard

touchdown that extended the Cougars’ lead to 20-0 with less than 7 seconds left in the opening quarter.

After the teams traded three-and-outs, the Cougars’ defense again made a big play, forcing quarterback Anthony Kitchens to fumble.

The ball was recovered by South’s Valentine, who ran 20 yards for a touchdown and

a 26-0 lead with 9:20 left in the first half.

“Our defense has been our strength all year,” Bublitz said. “They made the plays tonight that helped us win.”

The Spartans (1-5, 1-3) had little-to-no success on the ground against the Cougars’ defense in the first half and could not flip field position, as they averaged starting on their 20-yard line over seven possessions in the half.

Later in the second quarter, Danny Saracco’s blocked punt went out of the end zone for a safety that gave South a 28-0 lead with 1:18 left in the half. Then Deppe’s 7-yard touchdown run extended the Cougars’ lead to 35-0 with :04 left in the half and South never looked back.

Next week, South travels to Minooka for a game the Cougars must win to have a chance at making the playoffs.

“Minooka is a well-coached team, Bublitz said. “It should be a great game. Every week now is like a playoff game.”

South defeated Romeoville, 44-36, in the sophomore game.

FOOTBALL: HOMEWOOD-FLOSSMOOR 44, JOLIET WEST 6

H-F defeats Joliet West

By JEFF DeGRAW Shaw Media Correspondent JOLIET – When you play the number one team in the state, everything must go your way, and that usually doesn’t happen.

Joliet West opened the game with an onside kick that was there to be recovered, but Homewood-Flossmoor pounced on the ball and scored on its first six possessions for a 44-6 SouthWest Suburban Conference Blue victory Saturday at Ray Klootwyk Field.

After recovering the onside kick, the Vikings (6-0, 3-0) put together a 12-play drive that consumed five minutes as Deante Harley-Hampton ran 7 yards for the initial score. The two point conversion was good and the Vikings led, 8-0.

After a three-and-out by the Tigers, Devonte Harley-Hampton scampered 44 yards for the next score and another 2-point conversion put H-F up, 16-0.

West running back Juwaun McBee burst up the middle for

a 20-yard gain on the Tigers next possession, but three plays later, West (3-3, 1-3) had to punt.

On the first play, Vikings quarterback Bryce Gray hit Deante Harley-Hampton on an 82-yard scoring pass and with 1:02 left in the first quarter it was 23-0.

The Vikings scored on their next three possessions to take a 44-0 lead at halftime, insuring a running clock in the second half.

“They [H-F] are a tremendous team – big, strong and fast,” Tigers coach Jason Aubry said. “We learn from our mistakes and move on. We are done with this. We now have to look to next week.”

The Tigers have Sandburg, Stagg and Lockport remaining and must win two of the last three to secure a playoff bid.

“Our last three games are against good teams,” Aubry said. “Don’t look at the records of Stagg and Lockport – they are good.”

McBee, the senior running

back, had 49 hard-earned yards on 13 carries and scored the lone Tiger touchdown, on a 2-yard run with six seconds remaining in the third quarter.

“Juwaun ran the ball well today,” Aubry said. “All of our running backs must continue to hit the hole hard and keep their heads up. I really like the progression of all of our kids. We have quite a few underclassmen playing a lot of downs.”

One of the youngest is quarterback Jaxon Aubry, a freshman. He will be the signal-caller for the remainder of the season, as Jason Aubry confirmed that senior Alex Tibble has been lost for the remainder of the season.

“Jaxon has been around football all of his life, it doesn’t matter who we play, everyone must do their job,” Jason Aubry said. “We, as coaches, must get the players in position to make plays and then execute. As I said, I really like the growth our young players have shown.”

FOOTBALL: LINCOLN-WAY EAST 48, LOCKPORT 6

Lincoln-Way East keeps streak alive against Lockport

By JEFF DeGRAW Shaw Media Correspondent FRANKFORT – The last time Lockport defeated Lincoln-Way East in football was during the 2004 regular season.

On Friday night, the Griffins’ streak continued with a 48-6 SouthWest Suburban Conference Blue victory.

East (5-1, 4-0) jumped to a 28-6 first-half lead on the legs and arm of quarterback Brandon Bauer.

Bauer had 18 carries for 115 yards and was 6 of 9 passing for another 90 yards in the first half. He ended with 27 carries for 176 yards and was 13 of 22 passing for 164 yards. He added two rushing touchdowns and two through the air.

“Our game plan was designed to get me running the ball a little more tonight,” Bauer said. “If I see an opening, I’m going to take it, and our offensive line really opened up some great opportunities. All the credit goes to

our ‘O’ line. We executed very well tonight.”

After East started the game with a three-and-out, Lockport (1-5, 1-3) drove to the East 6-yard line, but two penalties and an incomplete pass forced the Porters into a fourth down.

A fumble on the subsequent fake field goal gave East the ball.

Bauer then ran on four consecutive plays and gained 31 yards. After a 6-yard sack, Nigel Muhammad ran 53 yards for the first East touchdown with 5:24 left in the opening quarter.

Lockport scored on the next possession, as Ben Davis hit Deiondre Taylor with a 60yard pass. The Porters’ missed the extra point but had pulled to within 7-6.

East came right back with a 13-play, 80-yard drive. Running back Brody Bolsoni capped it off with a 12-yard touchdown on the first play of the second quarter to put the Griffins up, 14-6.

On the Griffins’ next pos-

session, Bauer hit receiver Logan Winkler with a 26-yard touchdown on the 10th play of the drive to lead, 21-6.

After a Porter punt, the Griffins put together a 12-play drive, covering 66 yards, as Bauer ran the final 3 yards for the touchdown.

East scored on its first two possessions of the second half.

Bauer had a 7-yard touchdown run and then hit Ken Anderson with a 22-yard touchdown pass.

“We had a great effort tonight in all three phases of the game,” Griffins coach Rob Zvonar said. “We weathered the storm early and they [Lockport] are a much better team than the score indicates.

I’m pleased with the effort going into next week.”

The Griffins travel to Homewood-Flossmoor on Friday to take on the No. 1-ranked team in Class 8A. “We will prepare like we normally do. We know they are who we think they are,” Zvonar said with a laugh.

COLLEGE FOOTBALL: ST. FRANCIS 12, CONCORDIA 3

St. Francis captures fourth-straight win SUBMITTED REPORT ANN ARBOR, Mich. – No. 24-ranked University of St. Francis turned in another strong defensive effort en route to a 12-3 victory over Concordia (Mich.) University in Mid-States Football Association crossover action Saturday at Cardinal Stadium.

With their fourth consecutive victory – the Saints’ longest winning streak under fourth-year coach Joe Curry and the program’s longest since the 2011 campaign – USF improved to 4-1 and remained undefeated in three road affairs.

Concordia (3-2) saw its three-game winning streak come to an end as it fell to USF for the fifth time in as many meetings.

USF held the Cardinals – who averaged 28 points and 405 yards of total offense through their first four games – to 290 yards and a field goal. The Saints, who entered ranked first in the NAIA in rushing defense, eighth in total defense and ninth in scoring defense, forced three turnovers and stopped Concordia on 14 of 17 third-down opportunities.

The Saints scored on their third possession of the game when running back John Magee burst into the end zone from 5 yards away to cap an 8-play, 50-yard drive. The extra-point attempt missed.

Magee finished the game with 98 yards on 16 carries, good for a 6.1-yard-a-carry average.

USF struck again midway through the second quarter on a 23-yard pass from quarterback Don Butkus to wideout Jean Pietrzak. USF failed to convert a 2-point conversion.

Pietrzak’s touchdown re-

ception was his eighth of the season.

Concordia scored its lone score of the game on a 41yard Brayden Bennett field goal with 24 seconds remaining in the half. The kick came 10 plays after Nick Holshoe intercepted Butkus just outside the Cardinal red zone for the Saints’ lone turnover of the contest.

USF was forced to punt on all six of its possessions in the second half, as the Cardinals held the Saints to only four first downs and 117 total yards.

Concordia mounted the only sustained drive by either team in the second half.

Taking over at their own 32yard line with 3:33 left in the third stanza, the Cardinals advanced to the USF 5 before linebacker Mike Passo intercepted a second-down pass in the end zone.

Concordia penetrated USF territory late in the fourth quarter, but the Saints took the ball away again, this time on a fumble at the Saints’ 42yard line with 3:02 to play.

Featuring the NAIA’s second-best turnover margin heading into Saturday’s game, USF finished the day with a plus-two margin.

Butkus completed 10 of 26 attempts for 108 yards with one touchdown and one interception on the afternoon.

His Concordia counterpart Seth Suida was 9 of 22 for 96 yards with one pick.

He also rushed for 99 yards on 22 attempts.

Defensive statistics showed linebacker Jamal Graham with 17 tackles and linebacker Kevin Walsh with 14 stops.

USF concludes its threegame road stint Saturday at No. 25-ranked St. Ambrose University. Kickoff is set for 1 p.m. in Davenport, Iowa.

CROSS COUNTRY: LOCKTOBERFEST

By CURT HERRON cherron@shawmedia.com

• Sunday, October 4, 2015 *

LOCKPORT – Last season was definitely frustrating for Lincoln-Way West’s Evan Mitchell.

Despite being only a sophomore, Mitchell looked like he had a good chance to be an allstater in both cross country and track and field.

But the Warrior athlete finished 33rd at the cross country finals to fall eight spots shy of a medal, then got sick before the track finals and wound up taking 15th in the 3,200 run.

After his eighth place effort against a quality field in Saturday’s Locktoberfest at historic Dellwood Park, Mitchell feels that he can be a top-10 finisher at this year’s Class 2A meet.

Mitchell ran the 5K course in 16:08 to lead the local competitors in the 24-team event, which featured more than 200 runners.

“It’s really hilly and it’s a 5K too, so it’s a little slower, but we had good competition, like the people who were around me,” Mitchell said. “I took it a little faster than usual since I wanted to get that sectional/state feel to it so I was a little tired at the middle of the race. This is an historic course and it was awesome having Kevin Salvano, who won, setting the pace.

“I’m in 2A, so this is like state to me. This was good preparation for the sectional and state. Last year I got 33rd and missed out on all-state by a little bit. And in track, I was in really good shape and had the top time, but then I got mono the week of sectionals and barely qualified for the fast heat and when I got to state, my body was just dead.

I should have placed higher so this is redemption. My goal is to finish in the top 10 in 2A at state.”

The only downside for Mitchell is that fellow state qualifier Mitch Feehan suffered a stress fracture earlier during the season, so he won’t be able to push the junior to accomplish his goals.

Buffalo Grove’s Kevin Salvano, who was fifth in last year’s Class 3A finals, won the race in 15:34, which was

Evan Mitchell (351) finished in eighth place in a time of 16:08 on Saturday at Dellwood Park in Lockport.

10 seconds ahead of Whitney Young’s Clayton Mendez, the runner-up. But in the team competition, Young defeated Buffalo Grove, 73-88, for top honors while Neuqua Valley was third with 90 points.

Plainfield South took fifth place with 139 points, finishing just behind Downers Grove North (136) and just ahead of Downers Grove South (144). More importantly for the Cougars, they finished well in front of conference rival Oswego (183), which placed seventh.

South placed four runners in the top 30, with John Partee (16:29) taking 17th to lead the way. Austin Brown (25th, 16:37), Hunter Dyer (26th, 16:37) and Andrew Nunez

(30th, 16:40) were next-best, while Jake Willison (46th, 16:52) was the Cougars’ other scorer.

“We had our top five guys all under 17:00, which is awesome for a 5K course at Dellwood,” South coach Jason Crowe said. “If you’re under 17:00 here, that’s some serious business. Our one-throughfive split ended up being 16:29 to 16:52, so we’re real happy with that.

“Lockport puts on a great meet with Locktoberfest and Dellwood Park is real cross country, we love this course.

We come here in the summer and train a couple of times and come here for hill workouts.

This is the heart and soul of cross country, I love it here.”

Partee, who placed third in the 800 at last year’s state track finals, is excited about what he and his Cougars teammates might be able to accomplish this season.

“Throughout the year we’ve been trying to figure out our race strategy and I think lately it’s been coming together pretty well,” Partee said. “Today we had a great pack up front and our top five had a 23-second split. Our No. 1 runner for the past three or four weeks has been changing, so the whole team has been working together. Not having that lead guy scoring all of the points has made it more team-oriented and that’s beneficial. I wanted to get at least a minute slower than my 3-mile

PR, which I did, so that was definitely good.”

Two area runners who also were among the top 30 finishers were Joliet Central’s Raul Rosendo (21st, 16:33) and Plainfield North’s James Suchy (28th, 16:39).

Other top finishers from local schools were Plainfield North’s Omar Paramo (48th, 16:56), Lockport’s Cade Musich (54th, 17:03), Plainfield North’s Brenden McGath (56th, 17:04), Plainfield South’s Andy Bhatia (57th, 17:04), Plainfield North’s Ben Otstott (64th, 17:12), Lincoln-Way Central’s Nate Coppens (66th, 17:14), Plainfield South’s Steven Merriweather (67th, 17:14) and Joliet Central’s Andre Martinez (69th, 17:15).

That easy Week 4 win over Raiders isn’t so easy now Most of you/us thought the Oakland Raiders would be the Bears’ first victim of the season when the NFL released its 2015 schedule in April.

For those who believed no matter how improved the 2015 Bears would be there would be no way they could steal one from the opening murderer’s row of Green Bay, Arizona and Seattle, you were right.

The problem now, however, is these Raiders are not the laydown team Bears fans hoped they would be.

At 2-1, the Raiders lack a signature win, having defeated the 1-3 Ravens and 1-2 Browns after getting spanked by the Bengals in their opener.

But special young talent in the form of quarterback Derek Carr, running back Latavius Murray, wide receiver Amari Cooper and defensive

end/outside linebacker Khalil Mack is maturing quickly, and a few quality vets such as wideout Michael Crabtree, defensive lineman Aldon Smith and Justin Tuck, linebackers Malcolm Smith and Curtis Lofton and future Hall of Famer Charles Woodson are teaching them how to win.

Although most of that name recognition is on the defensive side of the ball, it is also where the Raiders continue to struggle, ranking 32nd in the league in total defense, 30th against the pass, 25th in both sacks and interceptions and 28th in points allowed.

Unfortunately for the Bears, who are sixth in the NFL running the ball, stopping the run is the only place the Raiders’ defense is succeeding, ranking 13th in the NFL.

BEARS INSIDER Hub Arkush If the Bears have Jay Cutler and Alshon Jeffery back, they should be able to do some business against an Oakland defense that struggles at cornerback with second-year player TJ Carrie and D.J. Hayden, who, you may remember, was a surprise 12th pick overall in the 2013 draft.

However, the Bears are just 28th in total offense, 31st throwing the football and 31st in points scored mainly because of the complete lack of production since Jimmy Clausen took over at quarterback.

The matchup of the day figures to be Martellus Bennett

trying to defeat coverage that most likely will come from Woodson and Smith, who was the MVP of Super Bowl XLVIII with Seattle.

Carr, Murray, Cooper and company are on fire through three weeks, seventh in total offense, 17th rushing, seventh in passing and 10th in points scored.

In addition to Murray, Marcel Reese is a threat running and catching the football and an excellent blocker to boot as one of the best fullbacks in the game.

The Bears hope to benefit from the return of Jeremiah Ratliff at nose tackle (questionable) and improving play of Jarvis Jenkins, Eddie Goldman, Ego Ferguson and Will Sutton against an average Raiders offensive line.

Tackles Donald Penn and Austin Howard are castoffs

from Tampa Bay and the Jets respectively.

The strength of this group is center Rodney Hudson, who was Oakland’s biggest free agency acquisition this summer from the Chiefs.

Oakland is not deep behind Cooper and Crabtree, but Alan Ball, Kyle Fuller and Tracy Porter will need to take another step forward to handle that top two.

This will be a game in which Antrel Rolle and Adrian Amos must show up. If those two, Shea McClellin and Christian Jones can at least get a standoff with Murray and Reece, the Bears will have a shot at the upset.

CENTRAL MICHIGAN 29, NORTHERN ILLINOIS 19

MT. PLEASANT, Mich.

– Things went from bad to worse for the Northern Illinois football team Saturday.

The Huskies lost their third-consecutive game, falling at Central Michigan, 29-19, in the Mid-American Conference opener on a rainy afternoon.

The Huskies had four turnovers in the second half, allowing Central Michigan to score 19 straight points and take the lead for good.

It marks the first threegame losing streak for the Huskies since 2009 – when they closed out the regular season with losses to Ohio and Central Michigan before falling to South Florida in the International Bowl.

Junior quarterback Drew Hare struggled to keep ahold of the football in the second half, fumbling on back-to-back possessions in the third quarter – leading to his temporary benching and 10 points for the Chippewas. On his only drive of the game, backup quarterback Ryan Graham threw

calm down a little bit.”

The Chippewas (2-3 overall, 1-0 MAC West) outscored the Huskies (2-3, 0-1), 23-3, in the third quarter.

Hare went 12 of 28 for 105 passing yards and no touchdowns and had 65 rushing yards on 27 carries. Junior Kenny Golladay had six catches for 54 yards and Aregeros Turner had two receptions for 37 yards.

CHAMPAIGN – With a strong, gusty wind swirling around, drizzle flying and Illinois running out of time, Illinois quarterback Wes Lunt tried four times to hit receiver Geronimo Allison on the right side of the Nebraska end zone.

Three times, it didn’t work.

But with 10 seconds left in the game, Lunt connected with the senior receiver, low and just inside the right corner of the end zone for a 1-yard touchdown that, after Taylor Zalewski’s extra point, gave Illinois (4-1, 1-0 Big Ten) an unlikely 14-13 win.

Allison, who had eight catches for 91 yards, said he had no doubt Lunt would try to hit him yet again on that last play.

“It’s who the quarterback has the most confidence with.

I got a feeling he’s coming my way,” said Allison, who rose to his knees after he caught the ball, pointing skyward. He acknowledged later that he’d cried after the win.

The loss was painful for Nebraska (2-3, 0-1), after the Cornhuskers overtime defeat at Miami and a loss to BYU on the final play of that game. Nebraska has lost three games by a total of nine points.

First-year coach Mike Ri-

ley said this one might have been the toughest.

“I don’t ever remember losing a game like this,” he said, adding later, “This one will be interesting [to come back from] for sure.”

“It hurts,” linebacker Chris Weber added. “Every loss hurts. Every loss is a gutpunch.”

The Illini overcame a pair of missed field goals by Zalewski, four early trips into the red zone that produced no points, a 13-0 fourth-quarter deficit and a crowd peppered with as much red and black as orange and blue.

Illinois also had to deal with almost a century of history to get the win – the Illini haven’t beaten Nebraska since a 9-6 win in 1924 – and more recent history.

Cubit took over when coach Tim Beckman was fired a week before the season opener over allegations of abusive treatment by several former players.

The win, Cubit said, might be the best in his long career, including two straight losing seasons as offensive coordinator at Illinois.

“The last couple of years, to be honest with you, it’s probably been pretty hard at times,” he said.

Lunt was 23 for 45 for 251 yards and two touchdowns.

Smith wins Hisense 200 The ASSOCIATED PRESS DOVER, Del. – Regan Smith could leave JR Motorsports with one heck of a parting gift.

Smith wants to stay with his NASCAR Xfinity Series team next year, but if he has to go, he’d gladly take a championship trophy with him.

Smith strengthened his championship push with a victory Saturday at Dover International Speedway and moved within serious striking distance of the points lead.

“I’m trying to figure some things out for next year, so

wins never hurt,” Smith said.

“That’s never a bad thing going forward.”

Smith won for the second time this season and moved within 36 points of series leader Chris Buescher with five races left in the season.

He would love to add a championship to his resume.

He faces an uncertain future with JR Motorsports after the organization signed Elliott Sadler for next season.

MLB ROUNDUP Cubs stay in running to host NL wild card

MILWAUKEE – Kyle Hendricks allowed one hit and struck out eight in six innings, and the Cubs kept alive their hopes to host to the NL wild-card game with a 1-0 victory over the Milwaukee Brewers on Saturday.

The Cubs won their seventh straight game behind a stellar effort from Hendricks (8-7). He held Milwaukee without a base runner until Martin Maldonado singled with one out in the sixth.

Maldonado grounded into a double play two innings later that allowed reliever Fernando Rodney to escape a first-andthird jam with one out.

Hector Rondon tossed a scoreless ninth for his 30th save.

The Cubs will face Pittsburgh in the wild-card matchup Wednesday. The Pirates lost, 3-1, to Cincinnati on Saturday, leav-

ing them one game ahead of the Cubs, who hold the tiebreaker.

White Sox edge Tigers

CHICAGO – Leury Garcia singled home the winning run in the ninth as the White Sox beat the Detroit Tigers, 4-3, Saturday and avoided finishing last in the AL Central.

Pinch hitter J.B. Shuck doubled to tie the score in the bottom of the ninth. After Jose Abreu was intentionally walked, Garcia singled.

Miguel Cabrera hit a two-run home run for the Tigers and virtually locked up the AL batting title. He had three hits to raise his AL-best average to .338 while Boston’s Xander Bogaerts was hitless in four at-bats to drop to .320. Tigers manager Brad Ausmus said Cabrera likely will not play Sunday in the season finale.

BRIDGE by Phillip Alder

You must paint a false picture

CELEBRITY CIPHER

Niels Bohr said, “The opposite of a correct statement is a false statement.

But the opposite of a profound truth may well be another profound truth.”

Yesterday’s column featured a play by declarer to give an opponent a chance to err and cede a contract that seemed destined to fail. Today’s deal is in the same realm, but features a different tactic.

What should happen in six spades after West leads the heart queen?

East opened with a weak two-bid that would not please the purists -- but bridge purists are on the World Wildlife Fund’s list of critically endangered species. (East’s suit was weak, and he had two aces.)

In the long run, it pays to pre-empt whenever you can. In particular, enjoy watching your opponents squirm in their seats. Here, though, South, who thought he had 12 sure tricks, jumped straight to six spades.

After the dummy comes down, South should realize that West has led a singleton. East showed a six-card suit in the bidding, there are four in the dummy, and declarer has two. There’s only one left.

However, East does not know that. West might have led from the queen-jack-doubleton. East will know, though, if, at trick one, South plays his heart jack or thinks about it.

Declarer must be ready, in tempo playing his king under East’s ace.

Then East might think he has a guess.

Should he try to cash the diamond ace?

East ought to deduce that if South had two fast losers, he would have used Blackwood.

So, East should return a heart.

But he might get it wrong. ******

48 Practicing tai chi often helps treat many medical problems Note to readers: This column is an updated version of one that appeared originally in February 2012.

Dear Dr. K: I have fibromyalgia, and my doctor recommends that I start tai chi exercises. Like any exercise, it will take time.

So I want to be sure it really might help me. Can it?

Dear Reader: One of the many practices from Asia that have spread to the West in the past 40 years is tai chi. It is often described as “meditation in motion.”

I think it could just as well be called MEDICATION in motion. This mind-body practice appears to help treat or prevent many health problems.

Tai chi is a low-impact, slow-motion exercise. As you practice it, you move fluidly through a series of motions. The motions are named for animal actions, such as “white crane spreads its wings,” or for martial arts moves.

As you move, you breathe deeply and naturally, focusing your attention on your bodily sensations.

A tai chi session usually starts with a warm-up to help you loosen your muscles and joints and focus on your breath and body. Then you proceed to tai chi “forms,” which are sets of movements.

A tai chi session also usually includes “qigong.”

Qigong consists of gentle breathing sometimes combined with movement.

The idea is to help relax the mind and mobilize the body’s energy.

Tai chi can be easily adapted for anyone, whether you are fit, confined to a wheelchair or recovering from surgery. It addresses the key components of fitness: muscle strength, flexibility, balance and, to a lesser degree, aerobic conditioning.

Combined with standard treatment, tai chi may also be helpful for several medical conditions, including fibromyalgia. In fact, a large study

ASK DOCTOR K Anthony L. Komaroff published in a prestigious journal, the New England Journal of Medicine, demonstrated its value in people like you who suffer from fibromyalgia.

Tai chi also has been found to increase flexibility and mobility, and to decrease pain, in a number of other medical conditions: • Parkinson’s disease; • Low back pain; • Severe knee osteoarthritis; • Ankylosing spondylitis, a painful and debilitating inflammatory form of arthritis; • Breast cancer, and the side effects of its treatment; • Stroke, to improve balance and strength.

In addition to helping treat various medical conditions, tai chi also helps protect against getting various medical conditions: • Osteoporosis in postmenopausal women; • High blood pressure; • Sleep disorders.

I don’t see a lot of people practicing tai chi in public places.

I’ll bet that will change in the next couple of decades. I have mentioned in this column before a trip I took to Asia years ago. I took a brisk morning walk around a pond near the hotel.

There were a few other walkers and joggers – but there were hundreds of people doing tai chi.

The hotel staff told me that they all practiced tai chi. So did their parents, grandparents and great-grandparents. We have to take seriously any practice that has persisted for centuries among millions of people.

Man’s anger issues threaten to break loving relationship

Dear Abby: I have anger issues and sometimes I take it out on the ones I love.

When my fiancee recently told me we are having a child, I hoped my attitude would change. It hasn’t, and at times it has gotten worse.

I hit her last night and it left a mark.

I feel awful for the pain I continue to cause her, and I keep telling myself “this is the last time.” I know she should drop me and be done with this abusive relationship, but she believes in me and holds onto the hope that better days are around the corner. I know the things I have done will never be forgotten. How can I fix this?

Or is it too late and we are both lying to ourselves? –

late IF you are willing to seek professional help for your anger issues. Change isn’t easy, but it is possible if you are willing to put in the effort and find ways of coping with your anger other than lashing out at those closest to you. Your physician should be able to refer you to a therapist who can help you. However, if that’s not feasible, contact your county department of mental health about counseling.

If you hit your pregnant girlfriend again, you could seriously injure her or your baby, so please don’t wait to talk to someone. While I empathize with her loving and having faith in you, she must now put the child she is carrying first. If you assault her again, she should call the police. But I would rather you get help for your problem on your own than your having a criminal record and court-ordered anger management.

Dear Abby: I came into a large sum of money because of an accident a relative of mine was in about a year ago. I spent it on a variety of items for myself, my husband and my mother. I paid

DEAR ABBY Jeanne Phillips off some debt and medical bills, and we also made two significant purchases as well as many small ones. Seventy-five percent of the money has been spent. I am OK with that and so is my husband.

My financial adviser, who has been managing two of the beneficiary accounts from the accident, has asked me about the other funds I received. I know to some people I was irresponsible and I should have saved as much as I could. I’m nervous about telling him what I chose to do. I’m afraid he’ll judge me for not being more frugal with the money.

Truth be told, it isn’t his business how that money was spent because he wasn’t managing it for me. How should I tell him about it? I feel like a typed letter is my best bet. – Nervious in Koko-

mo, Ind. Dear Nervous: I hope you

realize that you are thinking like a guilty child and not the adult you are now. If you prefer to answer your money manager’s question via a typed letter, that is your privilege.

However, it would be quicker and faster if you stop worrying about his reaction, pick up the phone and talk to the man. I agree it’s not his job to “judge” you, but he would not be acting in your best interest if he didn’t advise you how to provide for your future with the monies you have left after the spending spree you have described.

Be prepared for it, and please do not regard anything he says as criticism from a scolding parent, because he’s not your father.

You have the right stuff to make it to the top and achieve your goals. Your experiences will provide valuable insights into your future.

Stay away from untried or risky ventures. Stick to your budget and say no to anyone looking for a loan or donation.

help. If you are mindful, you’ll be treated better.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) – Deception is evident. Someone will try to undermine your reputation. You can dispel negative rumors by doing your job meticulously and without complaint. A person from your past will cause concern.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) – Mixing business with pleasure will work in your favor. Submit a proposal to associates and friends alike. The reaction you get will give you valuable insight that will help you proceed.

Keeping Brayden’s spirit alive Thirteen-year-old Braidwood teen hosts fundraiser in memory of boy he never met More online

By DENISE M. BARAN–UNLAND dunland@shawmedia.com

B

RAIDWOOD – Noah Curl, 13, of Braidwood wants to be a professional baseball player.

Part of the role, Noah feels, is giving back to the kids who look up to you.

So why not start now?

On Nov. 1, Noah is hosting “Take 5 for Bray,” a 5K walk/ run in memory of a Braidwood boy he never met – Brayden Grayling, who was 6 when he died Aug. 31 from glioblastoma multiforme, an aggressive form of brain cancer.

“His story just touched my heart,” Noah said. “It’s just sad to watch a kid of his age pass from cancer or anything like that. Also, one of my stepsisters passed of a similar disease [brain cancer] 8 years ago. She was 21.”

Proceeds will go to a local family battling a similar condition and toward playground equipment for the new Reed-Custer Primary School in Braidwood, which should be open for the 20172018 school year, Principal Heather Faletti said.

“I want Brayden’s spirit to always live on in the community,” Noah said. “He was always happy, running around, having fun.”

Brayden, Faletti said, was energetic and playful, but he also loved helping others.

Faletti feels the proceeds will benefit two good causes, and added that the district appreciates Noah’s efforts.

But she’s not surprised by them.

“Noah’s a pretty neat kid,” Faletti said.

Noah’s initiative also didn’t surprise Chad Klover, assistant principal at ReedCuster Middle School, which Noah attends. Klover said Noah actively participates in plays, speech, sports and the school’s anti-bullying

Visit this article at The Herald-News.com to view a video of Noah Curl encouraging leadership in youth.

If you go WHAT: Take 5 for Bray WHEN: Nov. 1. Registration begins at 9 a.m. 5K walk/run starts at noon.

WHERE: Braidwood Recreation Club, 33061 S. Rt. 53, Braidwood.

ETC: 5K walk/run (walkers and strollers welcome, no pets), extra T-shirts for sale at $10 each, bounce house, DJ. Concessions available.

COST: $25. Children 3 and under are free.

CONTACT: Noah Curl at take5forbray@yahoo.com or Eric Ginnard – eginnard@shawmedia.com Mandy Baumgartner at hairNoah Curl, 13, of Braidwood is hosting a 5K walk and run Nov. 1 at the Braidwood Recreation Club in memory mommy2@yahoo.com of Brayden Grayling, 6, who died Aug. 31 of brain cancer. Noah never met Brayden, but he did attend a fundraiser for the boy last fall because he feels it’s important to give back. Proceeds from the 5K will be used to buy playground equipment at Reed-Custer school in Brayden’s name. program.

In need of help? Noah is there. He volunteers everywhere, Klover said.

“He makes a mark on everything he does,” Klover said. ‘He’s not on the sidelines; he’s a leader. He just has a big heart like that. He’s just a real caring kid.”

Although Noah said he never formally met Brayden, he knew of Brayden through the Braidwood Baseball Association, of which he and his father Jerry Curl of Braidwood are active members.

Brayden was signed up to play baseball, Jerry said, until he became sick. In December 2014, Noah and Jerry attended a fundraiser for Brayden because Noah said he wanted to show his support for another child in the Braidwood community.

After Brayden’s death, Noah reached out to Mandy Baumgartner of Braidwood – coordinator for that 2014 fundraiser and friends of Brayden’s parents – and asked for her assistance and guidance with the 5K. Baumgartner said she’s helped Noah by making phone calls, obtaining sponsors and donations, attending school board meetings, talking to the Graylings and hanging fliers in places Noah can’t go, such as bars.

Baumgartner said both Noah and his sister Judith, 10, are great kids.

“Thirteen years old is pretty amazing to be giving back to the community,” Baumgartner said. “He’s [Jerry] is raising them well as a single dad.”

Jerry feels part of Noah’s

empathy originates from the losses Noah’s experienced in his life. Noah’s paternal grandmother died in 2006; his mother died in 2007; his great-aunt died in 2008; and his maternal grandmother died in 2009, Jerry said.

“Right now, his grandfather – his mother’s father – is pretty bad. His health is diminishing rapidly,” Jerry said. “He’s [Noah] been around this. He knows what inevitable is.”

But Noah also knows what giving is, through the example of his father, who’s always seizing opportunities to volunteer. Jerry said he’s stressed to his children the importance of team-playing and doing for others. His maxim is, “Give until it hurts – and then give a little more.”

“You have one job in life,” Jerry said, “to make someone smile.”

Take 5 for Bray welcomes people of all ages – including kids in strollers – but no pets.

Each participant will receive a T-shirt designed by Noah, who also created the fliers, packed ice bags, solicited volunteers and donations, and laid out the course with Jerry.

Other event features, Jerry said, include a DJ and a bounce house. From the response she’s received so far, Baumgartner estimates 1,000 people will attend.

All this activity is not lost on Noah’s sister Judith, who will be there with her friends.

“I think it’s awesome that he’s showing that much appreciation to someone that he barely even knew,” Judith said of Noah.

Mistika Jimenez designed the poster for Bayern Munich soccer as part of her work for Ultimate Team Posters.

Joliet Central junior gets poster design job through STEM skills The HERALD–NEWS JOLIET – Joliet Central High School junior Mistika Jimenez recently landed a job with Ultimate Team Posters using the technology skills she acquired from her STEM Academy coursework.

Jimenez took Intro to Technology last school year under the instruction of Dale West, where she was introduced to Photoshop.

This allowed her to learn how to use the program’s tools to manipulate different images, which made her an asset to Ultimate Team Posters.

Ultimate Team Posters is a design and printing company that specializes

in on-site poster production for youth sporting events.

The posters are sold around the country and are all created and designed by local high school students.

Designers Mistika like Mistika Jimenez work from home and everything is communicated online. Ultimate Team Posters trains the students.

The training includes weekly webinars that ensure the students keep their skills sharp.

DAR chapter collecting names The HERALD–NEWS LOCKPORT – The Louis Joliet Chapter of the National Society Daughters of the American Revolution, working as commemorative partners in commemoration of the 50th anniversary of the Vietnam War, laid a wreath at the Vietnam Veterans Moving Wall on Aug. 20 at the John Olson American Legion Post 18 in Lockport.

The Louis Joliet Chapter was joined by its sponsored Heritage Corridor Society Children of the American Revolution, which placed a wreath in honor of William Eugene Carroll, who was killed in action during the Vietnam conflict.

Louis Joliet Chapter members worked at the five-day event, handing out hundreds of brochures, buttons and stickers to recognize, remember and honor those who served.

Chapters of the Illinois State Organization Daughters of the American Revolution have teamed together to create an Illinois Vietnam War Era Veterans Honor Roster.

Volume I was printed in the spring of 2015, containing the names of 6,768 veterans who served. Over 200 additional names were collected at the Moving Wall memorial. These names will be included in Volume II, which is expected to be printed in spring of 2016.

If you are an Illinois Vietnam veteran or know of an Illinois veteran who served during the Vietnam era, contact Cyndi Valencia, Illinois
