Rialto deals with FOIA deluge Person assigned to handle requests resigns position

By BOB OKON bokon@shawmedia.com JOLIET – In another sign of the increased attention being paid to the Rialto Square Theatre, the organization’s Freedom of Information Act officer has resigned because she does not have time to keep up with the demand for documents.

“We are getting hit with FOIAs almost every day,” Rialto board member Vicky Murphy said at a meeting Wednesday. “It’s to the point where it’s overwhelming for the entire staff.”

Murphy, who also served as the FOIA officer until Wednesday, said two Rialto

The Rialto Square Theatre in Joliet. The organization’s Freedom of Information Act officer has resigned because she said she does not have time to keep up with the demand for documents. staff members are working as many as 35 hours a week dealing with public requests for information.

“They don’t have the time,” she said. “Until something

can be done to bring this under control, there’s going to be a big problem for the Rialto.”

Murphy said she did not have time to serve as FOIA officer while also running a

small business. Vice Chairman Dan Vera volunteered to take over as FOIA officer.

The surge in FOIA requests came with the controversy over a new marquee, which was stopped in mid-production amid community opposition.

Public questions over the process that led to the marquee decision led to a review where the Rialto’s attorney concluded proper bidding procedures were not followed in awarding the contract.

Rialto Board Chairman James Smith said the organization used to get about one FOIA request a year.

Now he said there are weeks where employees have had to work seven days to keep up with FOIA requests.

Some have been broad requests for documents going back 15 years or more.

“We’re doing our best to comply,” Smith said.

By BOB OKON bokon@shawmedia.com JOLIET – It’s time to clean up Joliet – starting May 2.

That’s the date for Citywide Neighborhood Cleanup Day, which was announced this week at City Hall.

Neighborhood groups are organizing cleanup projects.

Not all will happen May 2.

The Forest Park neighborhood will do its cleanup on May 9, said Councilwoman Bettye Gavin, who also is executive director of the Forest

Park Community Center.

“Everyone will gather here at the Community Center, and we will disperse from there,” Gavin said.

She asked that anyone interested in participating in the Forest Park cleanup call the Community Center at 815727-7898 so organizers can get an idea of how many volunteers will be available.

Cleanup Day has been an annual event for about five years, Gavin said.

“We try to get it all done in May,” she said.

The Unity Community Development Corp. has served as the effort’s coordinating group, but everyone in the city is encouraged to take part.

The proclamation from Mayor Tom Giarrante urges “all residents, businesses, all civic, neighborhood and community organizations to organize cleanup activities to clear the litter and debris from sidewalks, parkways, curbs, alleys and local parks in order to make our city as clean and attractive as it can be.”

with a space to grow plants, vegetables and flowers of their choice, according to a news release from the school district.

Some gardeners rent plots because they do not have access to property that can accommodate their gardening goals, while others use the plots to grow food for others. Garden

plots are located on the north end of Minooka Community High School’s Central Campus. For more information, visit www. mchs.net. Rentals are based on a first-come, first-serve basis.

Extended winter delays start of growing season for community gardens

By VIKAAS SHANKER vshanker@shawmedia.com

J

OLIET – Michael Staley and Rebecca Wlodarczyk covered several of their gardening plots Wednesday afternoon at the Joliet Park District organic community garden to protect the vegetables they planted from the frost expected early Thursday morning.

The plants most in jeopardy were the tomatoes.

“We planted them too early,” Staley said, noting that tomatoes thrive in warmer weather. “We wanted to get a head start. But I’m not going to give up yet.”

The long winter hasn’t been kind to gardeners. It pushed back the start of the planting season, said Nancy Kuhajda, a master gardener with the University of Illinois Extension who works with several community gardens in Will County.

“The weather causes a real flux,” she said. “Gardening in Will County is a gamble. This year, the soil hasn’t heated up yet.”

Weathering the cold

Barb Kozlowski, a coordinator for the community garden at St. Dominic Church in Romeoville, said the 12 people that cultivate the 26-by-35-foot lot will have to wait until mid- to late May to start gardening.

“We plant rye in the fall and it becomes a natural fertilizer when we cut that back in the spring and till the soil,” Kozlowski said.

“We have to wait a couple of weeks for it to decompose and then we’ll start planting.”

The St. Dominic garden is different from the Joliet Park District’s garden. At St. Dominic, the gardeners all take care of one big lot and share the vegetables, herbs and other food that comes

Rebecca Wlodarczyk and Michael Staley discuss Wednesday how to best protect one of their plots at the Joliet Park District from a possible overnight freeze. At the community garden, each gardener tills his or her own plot, usually 10-by-10 or 10-by-20 feet. from it.

In the park district’s garden, each gardener tills his or her own plot, usually 10-by-10 or 10-by-20 feet.

However, both types of gardens have to yield to the weather.

Kozlowski said rain forced the St. Dominic gardeners, a mix of parishioners of St. Dominic and St. Francis of Assisi in Bolingbrook, to wait until May 31 last year to start planting.

Leonard Winters, the garden manager for the park district’s garden, said one of the toughest parts of getting the garden ready was taking out all the weeds.

“We don’t have much mulch either,” he said.

“We need people to donate mulch.”

To plant, or not to plant

Gardeners with the park district plant spinach, onions, potatoes, tomatoes, turnips, Swiss chard, kale and other vegetables, along with herbs and flowers, Winters said.

Kuhajda said gardeners shouldn’t plant late-season plants such as tomatoes, peppers and eggplants just yet.

“Some people say Memorial Day, but some start around Mother’s Day. Not this year,” she said.

Plants that thrive in the colder spring weather include

Gardening tip “Soil solarization” is a way to naturally get rid of multiple weeds in one area. Master gardener Nancy Kuhajda explains how to get weeds to kill themselves before planting your crops.

Q Put a clear plastic cover over the area of weeds. Make sure no desirable plants have been planted in the area.

Q Make sure there are no holes and the area is air locked with the cover.

Q Wait for the weeds to “grow to death” from the greenhouse effect of the sun, coupled with the lack of carbon dioxide. They will turn a brownish hue. This takes about two weeks.

Q Till or mulch the soil with the dead weeds as a natural fertilizer.

Q Plant as you normally would.

DISTRICT 201

New kindergarten options weighed Full-day plan to get school board vote Wednesday

By ALLISON SELK Shaw Media correspondent

Lauren Leone-Cross – lleonecross@shawmedia.com

Con-way Freight has opened a 41,600-square-foot freight facility in Joliet. It’s a $12 million expansion that more than doubles the freight-handling capacity at its former facility in Channahon. A grand opening event was held Thursday.

Con-way debuts facility $12M Joliet site will bring jobs

By LAUREN LEONE–CROSS lleonecross@shawmedia.com JOLIET – City and area officials were impressed Thursday during a tour of Con-way Freight’s newest, state-of-theart facility in Joliet.

The facility more than doubles the capacity of the trucking and logistics company’s freight-handling at its previous Channahon location.

“It’s great for our city.

Channahon’s loss is our gain.

It’ll bring good jobs to our city,” Mayor Tom Giarrante said of Con-way Freight’s $12 million investment in a new, 41,600-square-foot facility with 80 dock doors during Thursday’s ribbon-cutting ceremony.

The move to 1950 Terminal Court in Joliet represents the addition of nearly 70 jobs in the community, doubling the company’s current employee count, according to Con-way officials.

“We’re really here to celebrate our investment in the

community, our investment with our customers, our employees and our company,” David Burk, Con-way operations director for the Chicago region, told city officials who attended the ceremony.

“There’s been significant growth in this area, and we clearly want to be in the middle of that. We want to be a part of that.”

The facility – which also includes about 6,500 square feet of office space, a new training room and a fueling island for truck drivers – is in a strategic location, with the two nearby trucking intermodals in Joliet and Elwood.

Con-way Freight joins other trucking and logistic businesses situated in this region’s transportation hub near Interstates 80 and 55, Giarrante said.

Saddle Creek Logistics plans a move to Joliet from its smaller Elwood facility, and IKEA plans to move there from Minooka. Home Depot expanded its Joliet site in 2013, making it the company’s largest distribution center in the U.S. “It’s location. Location.

Location. This is the heart … you’ve got Interstate 80, I-55.

It’s all about location,” Giarrante said. “This is very positive.”

The jobs are a major plus, too, he said, noting truck-drivers-in-training start out as dock workers, but can earn up to $26 an hour as drivers.

Jamie Regan, Con-way services central manager, said the company has room to expand at this location, with the “capacity for 160 dock doors.”

“We will probably do that in the near future,” Regan said.

Mary Jaworski, Joliet Region Chamber of Commerce & Industry president, said she was impressed with the facilities – and that the company could expand.

“That means more jobs.

Good-paying jobs,” Jaworski said. “We are excited.”

Con-way Freight is the largest subsidiary of Conway Inc., a $5.8 billion freight transportation and logistics services company headquartered in Ann Arbor, Michigan.

Con-way’s operating units provide freight transportation; logistics, warehousing and supply chain management services; and trailer manufacturing, according to its website.

MINOOKA – Another big crowd gathered Wednesday in the Minooka Primary Center gym, anxiously awaiting details on the approved full-day kindergarten program.

In March, the Minooka Community Consolidated School District 201 Board approved an all-day kindergarten program starting in the 2015-16 school year. How the day would look in terms of classes offered, hours of attendance and busing remained up in the air and could be decided later this month.

Parents were concerned whether kindergarten students would receive fine arts instruction from kindergarten teachers or from teachers who specialized in art, music and physical education.

Former Minooka kindergarten teacher Linda Walter, who spoke at the March meeting, spoke again Wednesday.

“Fine arts instruction, when I taught, had to be removed because of the large class sizes, so we were told to do it in our classrooms,” Walter said. “I would put in a tape for the kids to listen to, or do a simple craft, because that is what I knew how to do. This isn’t fine arts. The kids need professional instruction.”

Joy Dertinger of Minooka has her daughter, Zooey, entering kindergarten next year and has a vested interest in fine arts. Dertinger is

a musician.

“Teachers are wonderful, but may not be gifted in arts or physical education. I think we owe it to our children to have professional teachers for those classes,” Dertinger said.

The fine arts debate centers on the budget. Superintendent Al Gegenheimer discussed the costs and needs if the district were to offer fine arts to kindergarten students. Adding fine arts would make the days longer and require hiring more fine arts teachers. Right now, those teachers report to multiple schools.

Gegenheimer proposed four options. The fourth would allow for a full seven-hour day beginning at 8:30 a.m. and ending at 3:30 p.m. It would include two 25-minute periods of fine arts instruction per day, and the hiring of four additional fine arts staff members at a cost of $200,000.

It was the option parents and the board seemed to favor.

Gegenheimer said once the money comes in for the program in the 201617 school year – the state counts half-day children as half a child, but will count the full-day children as a whole child, thus increasing funding – the money will be available.

“Option four is the best option. Ninety-five percent of our teachers can’t teach fine arts, and that’s not the route we want to do in Minooka,” board member Al Skwarczynski said.

The next board meeting is Wednesday at Minooka Primary Center, 305 W. Church St., Minooka. New board members will be sworn in and the new kindergarten option is expected to be voted on.

Lower bond for man tied to boxing gym shooting death Already pleaded guilty last year as part of plea deal

By BRIAN STANLEY bstanley@shawmedia.com JOLIET – A man who awaits sentencing in connection with a fatal robbery outside a boxing gym had his bond lowered Thursday.

Jermain K. Bennett, 41, was initially charged with murder after the Aug. 9, 2012, slaying of Sean D. McGinn, but has agreed to plead guilty to robbery in exchange for testifying against Kenneth G. Edwards, 47, who police say pulled the trigger.

Edwards’ case has been delayed while DNA tests are done on a T-shirt found near the scene. Edwards, Bennett’s

cousin, was released from jail to home confinement in December to avoid violating his right to a speedy trial.

Defense attorney Chuck Bretz asked Judge Edward Burmila to release Bennett on a recognizance bond similar to Edwards’ conditions. Bennett pleaded guilty Jermain K. last year and Bennett faces up to 30 years in prison, but his sentencing was postponed until after Edwards is tried.

“I know there’s a difference because [Bennett] has pleaded guilty,” Bretz said.

“There were no guarantees as to ‘when,’ but it was expected for the trial to have occurred and now, through no fault of his own, it’s been delayed.”

On Aug. 9, 2012, McGinn,

39, parked his pickup truck behind KO Zone, 218 E. Cass St., which he co-owned with Bennett.

Police said McGinn had brought thousands of dollars to buy cocaine from Bennett, but Edwards was waiting in the parking lot and shot McGinn twice.

Police said the drugs Bennett had promised to deliver did not exist. “[Unlike Edwards], this defendant has admitted his culpability in a violent crime that led to the death of another person,” Burmila said.

The judge lowered Bennett’s bond from $2 million to $500,000 – meaning he would need to post $50,000 to be released from the Will County jail.

If Bennett were to be released, he would be monitored with an ankle bracelet, Burmila said.

Romeoville man killed in 2014 crash in Will County is Back! Every Friday! injuries.

By BRIAN STANLEY bstanley@shawmedia.com JOLIET – A Crest Hill man believes his blood alcohol test results should be banned from his trial on DUI charges stemming from a fatal crash in Romeoville last year.

William “Calvin” Hayes, 31, is charged with 12 counts of aggravated driving under the influence in the May 19, 2014, crash.

Romeoville Police Officer Sean Wagner testified during a pretrial hearing that he smelled alcohol on Hayes’ breath and noticed his eyes were bloodshot the morning of the crash.

“He said he’d had two beers around 2:30 p.m. the day before while watching the Blackhawks game,” Wagner said.

Authorities allege that Hayes was driving a green Dodge minivan south on Weber Road when he ran through a stoplight at Taylor Road, crashing into a brown Mitsubishi SUV driven by Don Trasmonte, 41, of Romeoville.

Trasmonte was killed, and his wife, Christy, was seriously injured.

Hayes refused medical treatment, and a man who was a passenger in his vehicle was treated for minor

Wagner testified he asked Hayes if he was willing to go to Adventist Bolingbrook Hospital for a blood draw and urine test.

Hayes agreed.

Hayes also underwent field sobriety tests and was unable to follow the officer’s finger with his eyes, but could stand on one William leg and keep “Calvin” his balance Hayes while walking and turning, according to Wagner.

“And you did not have probable cause to arrest him at that point?” defense attorney Jeff Tomczak asked Wagner, who acknowledged he did not.

Tomczak and Assistant Will County State’s Attorney Chris Regis did not outline Thursday whether the test results are admissible.

The lawyers are expected to make their arguments to Judge Daniel Rozak during another hearing.

Hayes refused to breathe into a portable breathalyzer police brought to the crash scene, but agreed to go to the hospital after being asked a second time, Wagner said.

JOLIET – A former cheerleading coach was sentenced to probation Thursday after pleading guilty to paying an underage girl for sex last year.

Ray Saleh, 51, will have to register as a sex offender for the next 10 years in exchange for having charges of aggravated criminal sexual abuse dropped.

Saleh, of the 600 block of Hartford Drive in Oswego, was employed at ICE Cheerleading in Aurora Ray Saleh before he was arrested Dec. 30, 2014.

Assistant Will County State’s Attorney Mary Fillipitch told Judge Edward Burmila that Saleh was approached at a coffee shop on Sept. 26 by a then-15-year-old runaway.

“She didn’t know him [but] told him she was a prostitute,” Fillipitch said. Saleh took the girl to a nearby park, where she performed oral sex on him in exchange for money, according to Fillipitch.

Saleh then dropped the girl off at a doughnut shop, and she was spotted a short time later by one of her teachers, who notified police.

Officers learned about the sexual encounter and reviewed surveillance video from the doughnut shop to identify Saleh, Fillipitch said.

When questioned by police, Saleh admitted to giving the girl money.

“Is that what happened, sir?” Burmila asked Saleh.

“Yes, your honor,” said Saleh, who chose not to address the court Thursday.

Saleh spent 115 days in the Will County jail and will be on sex offender probation for 30 months. Burmila noted the victim and her family were aware of the plea agreement.

Those qualifications include having an Arbor Day observance, which Joliet held Tuesday at William B. Orenic Intermediate School.

Tree City USA communi-

Joliet City Arborist Jim Teiber passes out saplings to students at William B. Orenic Intermediate School. Teiber estimated Joliet has cut down at least 5,000 ash trees infested with the emerald ash borer in recent years.

ties also must budget at least $2 per capita in a forestry program, have a tree care ordinance, and have a Tree Board.

Rita Renwick, a longtime member of the Joliet Tree Board, spoke about the importance of being a Tree City USA at the City Council meeting where Arbor Day was proclaimed.

“It makes Joliet a better place to live,” Renwick told the council.

The importance of trees certainly has been recognized in subdivisions hard hit by

ash tree removal. Residents have called City Hall to complain at times when ash tree removal left the neighborhood looking barren.

Councilman Larry Hug said tree replacement is one of the top three concerns of his constituents.

“The neighborhoods do look naked, and they will continue to look naked for a few years because you can’t plant a full-grown tree,” Hug said.

But, he said, residents are glad to hear more trees are coming.

JOLIET – In May, Joliet will begin planting the first of 500 trees this spring, making Arbor Day look particularly promising this year.

Joliet has a program to plant 1,000 trees a year over the next seven years to replace ash trees cut down because of the emerald ash borer.

In addition to the spring planting, another 500 trees will be planted in the fall.

“It means a lot to Joliet residents,” City Arborist Jim Teiber said this week at a Joliet City Council meeting.

During the meeting, Arbor Day, which is Friday, was recognized with a proclamation.

“We’re going to lose thousands of trees,” Teiber added. “It’s important that now we’re going to reforest those areas that are losing trees.”

Teiber later estimated Joliet has cut down at least 5,000 ash trees infested with the emerald ash borer in recent years. The insect has killed ash trees across the country.

Anywhere from 2,000 to 5,000 more ash trees could be removed from the public parkways because of the infestation, he said.

“Last year alone we did about 1,300 trees,” he said.

That has left a lot of bare spaces in Joliet neighborhoods.

Joliet takes a certain pride in its trees. The city is in its 24th consecutive year of be-

Joliet to get 1,000 planted this year to replace those killed by ash borer

We Care executive director leaving for new job MORRIS – After 11 years with We Care of Grundy County, Executive Director Denise Gaska is going to try her hand providing services for a different clientele.

Gaska announced Thursday that she has taken a job with Illinois Valley Industries, a local nonprofit that serves adults with development disabilities. Gaska will be the community living director, overseeing the supported living and personal support programs.

“It’s time for a change, and I’m very confident the perfect person who is going to take We Care into the next stage of development is out there,” Gaska said.

Gaska has been We Care’s executive director since May 2006 and has worked at the

note. We’re in this great new building and overcome obstacles to get here and we’re really in a great place. We just need someone with a different set of skills than I have at this time,” Gaska said.

In March, We Care moved into a new, larger location, allowing it to now offer a clothes closet as part of its services.

The purchase means We Care took on debt for the first time, Gaska said. We Care continues to be in great financial shape, she said, but she hopes the new executive director can concentrate on fundraising to conquer the new building debt.

We Care’s Board of Directors wants to fill the vacancy as soon as possible, Board President Chuck Richardson said. He said the board was surprised by the decision, noting Gaska did a good job in her role, but understood the new job fits her interest and

skill level.

“We need to fill it. It’s a critical time in the life of We Care because of the expansion of the building and expansion of programs,” Richardson said. “So we do want to fill it

as soon as possible.”

To request a job description or submit a resume and cover letter, email denise@ wecareofgrundy.com, stop by the office or mail to 530 Bedford Road, Morris, IL 60450.

Joliet high schools will offer Mentor 2.0 courses District also will have new engineering courses

By FELIX SARVER fsarver@shawmedia.com JOLIET – Mentor 2.0 courses and a new engineering course will be offered to Joliet high school students next school year.

The members of the Joliet Township High School District 204 Board approved Mentor 2.0 courses Tuesday for 10th- and 11th-grade students for the 2015-16 school year, as well as 12th-grade students for the 2016-17 school year.

Last October, JTHS schools kicked off the Mentor 2.0 pilot program, which matched 50 students from the West and Central campuses with community mentors. JTHS partnered with Big Brothers Big Sisters of Will and Grundy Counties and New-York-based iMentor on the program.

The program’s goal is to have all students participate, including those from low-income communities, and to inspire them to become college ready.

School officials want to in-

crease student awareness of the program and their desire to be a part of it by offering elective courses.

“We have learned throughout the piloting that students who participate in the program develop learning activities, develop relationships and nurture that college aspiration,” said Karla Guseman, the district’s educational services assistant superintendent.

The Mentor 2.0 courses for 10th- and 11th-grade students will be for two semesters and count for a quarter credit.

Students will be paired with an adult mentor and will compose weekly emails – along with monthly face-to-face meetings – with their mentor.

For the 2016-17 school year, 12th-grade students can take a Mentor 2.0 course, as well.

Engineering course

On Tuesday, JTHS board members also approved the elimination of the Introduction to Engineering course and the adoption of the Project

Lead the Way Introduction to Engineering Design course for next school year.

The two-semester, one-credit course will be available to high school students who successfully complete Algebra 1 with a C or better or who achieve a Math EXPLORE 8 score greater or equal to 15.

Guseman said this course was proposed because school officials want to draw more students into a pre-engineering program, so they can experience activities, software and projects that will prepare them for college engineering classes.

“We know kids are interested in [science, technology, engineering and mathematics] careers … if we can nurture and support that early on in high school, we think that will help them in the long run,” Guseman said.

Board members also approved Project Lead the Way Principles of Engineering for the 2016-17 school year for 10th-, 11th- and 12th-grade students.

Braidwood Dunes a source of family history Calif. woman traces roots to botanist who studied them

By VIKAAS SHANKER vshanker@shawmedia.com BRAIDWOOD – Willard Clute discovered a nature haven when he explored the pocket of sand dunes east of Braidwood in the middle of the 1920s.

Sand dunes in a place such as Braidwood are rare. But the dunes contained several diverse wild and flowering plant species, including orchids, berries, cacti, ferns and other prairie staples.

The botanist published a book in 1931 called “Swamp and Dune: A Study in Plant Distribution.” The Will County Forest Preserve District is using his book as a guide to restoring the Braidwood Dunes and Savanna Nature Preserve off Route 113.

While local nature lovers can trek the natural paths, enjoying the preserve any day, a California woman on Thursday enjoyed her first walk in the footsteps of her great-uncle.

Clute had a close nephew who was jailed. The nephew traded names with another person to get out of jail and start a new life.

The nephew would tell the story to his relatives, including his granddaughter Jennifer McHenry, who recounted that story to reporters Thursday at the Braidwood Dunes.

When McHenry, a resident of Sacramento, California, heard her grandfather’s stories, she studied his original family and found out about Willard Clute.

“I bought a couple of his books and it inspired me to go to college,” McHenry said.

She went to California State University in Sacramento for botany and then geography.

She is working on earning her doctorate, studying suburbia and how people spend time in neighborhoods.

McHenry jumped at the chance to tour the sand dunes, looking to find what her great-uncle Willard found nearly a century ago.

McHenry and her husband, Derek, joined Floyd Catchpole, the land management program

Eric Ginnard – eginnard@shawmedia.com

Jenny McHenry examines a native Illinois flower along a trail at Braidwood Dunes and Savanna Nature Preserve on Thursday in Braidwood.

McHenry’s great-uncle, Willard Clute, wrote the first ecological book about the nature preserve during the early 20th century.

Online Visit this article at TheHeraldNews.com for a video about the dunes. coordinator for the Forest Preserve District of Will County, and Jason Zylka, a restoration ecologist, on a tour Thursday morning of the Braidwood Dunes and Savanna Nature Preserve.

Catchpole started off by detailing the preserve area’s history. Sand dunes were deposited by the Wauponsee glacier, and the diverse plant life was a product of traditional fires used by American Indians in the area as a land management tool throughout Will County.

“It kept the plant communities relatively unchanged,” Catchpole said.

The tradition was kept alive by area inhabitants until the 1970s, with the introduction

of effective herbicides. That caused drastic environmental changes that the forest preserve district is trying to reverse.

During the tour, the group found several of the plants Clute mentioned in his book, including the marsh marigold, cleft phlox, prickly pear cactus, raspberries, native rose and violets.

McHenry also learned of local wildlife – some of which Clute mentioned in his book – including the wild turkey, pheasants, quail, puddle ducks, pocket gophers and several snake species. They encountered two different snakes, a bull snake and hog nose snake.

“I certainly know where [Clute] is coming from,” McHenry said after the tour was over, adding that the plant life isn’t as abundant as what Clute had written about. “It’s not quite what he described, but those small things that you find that he talked about is amazing to see. I know it’s being improved.”

St. Patrick School joins endangered properties list

By DAN FARNHAM dfarnham@shawmedia.com LEMONT – Landmarks Illinois is drawing attention to the former St. Patrick School in Lemont by naming it to its annual list of the 10 most endangered historic places in Illinois.

The school, originally called St. James Academy when it was built in 1883, has been vacant since 2003, and the Archdiocese of Chicago has applied with the village of Lemont to demolish the building.

Because the building is located in a historic district, it cannot be demolished unless the village gives permission.

Landmark Illinois noted the school “exemplifies the growing number of shuttered archdiocesan schools” and is one of a dozen “Joliet-Lemont limestone structures still standing in Lemont, a town where quarrying was the major industry from 1850-1900.”

The Lemont Historic Preservation Commission denied

the archdiocese’s request for demolition, and the archdiocese formally appealed the decision to the Lemont Village Board while exploring whether anyone would want to buy and use the building.

Landmarks Illinois is a nonprofit organization that advocates for endangered historical properties in the state.

The organization said in a news release that breaches in the roof have allowed water to seep in and deteriorate the interior, but the school’s limestone exterior remains stable.

The archdiocese has said that the repairs needed to make the building safe would be too costly.

Landmarks Illinois president Bonnie McDonald said the organization chose St. Patrick as a preservation priority because it is representative of similar historic properties owned by faith-based communities in the state.

“What we try to look for in our listings are things that

She said her organization will reach out to the archdiocese to provide its expertise on alternatives to demolishing the building.

“We have listed religious properties several times and have worked to find adaptive

reuses for them and have met with some success,” she said.

McDonald said there is a sense of urgency to save the former school because of how long it has been vacant.

“Every year that goes by that it’s not reused, the cost of that rehabilitation project goes up,” she said.

Sleek Chrysler 200 adds more luxurious options The beauty of the 2015 Chrysler 200 – billed as the new “face” of Chrysler – is much more than just appearances.

The award-winning 200 rolled into spring with two new interior options, giving customers more choices in the mid-size sedan segment.

The 200S model now offers the choice of an Ambassador Blue leather interior, in addition to Black leather or Black cloth with Ambassador Blue leather trim. The 200C model added the choice of a premium Mocha leather interior with heated and ventilated front seats to its lineup, which also includes Black or Linen leather interiors with heated and ventilated front seats.

Even before the new offerings, the 200’s luxury five-passenger interior prompted Ward Auto to name it one of its “10 Best Interiors.”

“The Chrysler 200 is resonating with consumers looking for a car that delivers a timeless, elegant design, a great driving experience and is packed with features drivers and passengers appreciate,” said Al Gardner, President and CEO – Chrysler Brand.

“By adding two new interior choices, the Chrysler 200 offers fresh options for the driver who wants a car that exudes a style not typically found in the mid-size sedan segment.”

The 200 has already earned a pile of

accolades. The Midwest Automotive Media Association (MAMA) picked the 200 for its coveted “Family Vehicle of the Year” award, presented at the Chicago Auto Show in February.

The 200 has also earned a Five-Star overall safety rating from the U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, a Top Safety Pick-Plus by the Insurance Institute of Highway Safety, a “Best Buy in the Midsize” segment by the automotive editors at Consumer Guide, and a “Best Buy” seal from Consumers Digest.

According to many reviewers, Chrysler reached its goal with the 200: simple elegance, an exhilarating driving experience, state-of-the-art, easy-to-use technology and beautiful crafted design. The 200 offers a segment-first nine-speed automatic transmission, a choice of two world-class engines, an innovative all-wheel-drive system, and highway fuel economy up to 36 miles per gallon.

For peace of mind, the 2015 Chrysler 200 offers the most available safety features in the mid-size sedan segment, and state-of-the-art, easy-to-use technology that keeps drivers and passengers connected.

Offered in LX, Limited, S and C trim levels, the base engine is the 184-horsepower 2.4-liter Tigershark MultiAir II four-cylinder, with an

Chrysler is not resting on the laurels earned by the sleek, aerodynamic 2015 Chrysler 200. Now available on the 200S model is an Ambassador Blue leather interior, while the 200C adds the choice of a premium Mocha leather interior with heated and ventilated front seats.

impressive 36 highway mpg. Available is the 3.6-liter Pentastar V6, with best-in-class 295 hp, and a 32 highway mpg rating.

The optional all-wheel-drive system includes a “sport” driving mode for excellent performance in all driving conditions, and a segment-first fully disconnecting rear axle that improves fuel economy by operating in frontwheel drive when all-wheel drive is not needed.

The center console offers state-ofthe-art electronic gear shifting with a rotary shift knob. The 200 features a 7-inch touchscreen, with the standard, award-winning Uconnect 5.0 system.

Uconnect 8.4 is available with the Navigation and Sound Group and 8.4inch screen.

Trunk space is a respectable 14.5 cubic feet. adno=0292697

“What do you do with potatoes like this?” she said to the more than 20 participants, pointing at a potato with many sprouting spots.

“You cut them off. But this is good for us. They’re the potatoes’ eyes and that’s where they grow from.”

Every Wednesday afternoon, the group of adults, members of Cornerstone Services and the park district’s SRJC Go Green club, come to the park district’s community garden to learn about self-sufficiency and how to grow their own vegetables.

They learned how to till the soil along with how to plant potatoes in raised beds.

“It’s a learning curve with everyone,” Kuhajda said.

“Some of [the gardeners] already planted late-season crops. But that’s what we do, we learn.”

As Staley and Wlodarczyk covered their crops, Kuhajda taught a group of adults with special needs how to plant potatoes.

Legislators OK Lucas, Obama museums

SPRINGFIELD – With fasttrack votes, Illinois lawmakers pushed through legislation Thursday to ensure that Chicago can use public park land as a potential site for President Barack Obama’s presidential library, while also paving the way for Star Wars creator George Lucas’ proposed museum on the city’s lakefront.

Advocates for the city’s public

parks responded by accusing Mayor Rahm Emanuel and the lawmakers of using the city’s widely supported bid for the Obama library to blunt opposition to the more controversial Lucas museum. They previously had sued to stop the Lucas facility, which they claim would be illegal if built as proposed, on filled-in shoreline that is now public.

Ex-lawmaker gets 5 months in bribe case

CHICAGO – A federal judge sentenced a former state lawmaker on Thursday to five months in prison for pocketing a $7,000 bribe, chiding Illinois’ political class for not appearing to

grasp the pitfalls to themselves and the state of corruption.

Former Illinois Rep. Derrick Smith, a 51-year-old Chicago Democrat, was among the many Illinois politicians to have entered a “revolving door” to face corruption charges in federal court, Judge Sharon Johnson Coleman told a sentencing hearing in Chicago.

Agency assessing damage in Fairdale tornado for aid

FAIRDALE – An Illinois agency says it’s still trying to determine what assistance might be available to victims of a deadly tornado that struck northern Illinois earlier this month.

The April 9 storm killed two people in Fairdale, a community of about 150 people. The Illinois Emergency Management Agency says it’s still collecting information about damage.

Agency spokeswoman Patti Thompson told The Daily Chronicle that it’s too early to say what aid the state could give to residents and local governments.

But local leaders in the area say they don’t expect federal help.

Mystery illness on flight from O’Hare

HARTFORD, Conn. – An airline passenger said he had trouble breathing, and others felt ill, but the airline said Thursday that an inspection found no

mechanical faults after the jet made an emergency landing in New York. While federal safety officials had no explanation for what happened on Wednesday, aviation experts said the crew did the right thing by descending to 10,000 feet, an altitude with life-giving oxygen levels.

SkyWest Flight 5622, carrying 75 passengers, left O’Hare airport in Chicago and was bound for Bradley International Airport near Hartford. The Embraer E170 began a steep, rapid descent from its cruising altitude of 37,000 feet after the crew declared an emergency and landed in Buffalo late Wednesday morning.

Catholics say final farewell to Cardinal George

By TAMMY WEBBER The Associated Press CHICAGO – Cardinal Francis George was remembered Thursday as a man of deep faith, intellect and compassion as Catholics said their final goodbyes to the man who led the nation’s third-largest archdiocese and was known as a vigorous defender of Roman Catholic orthodoxy.

George also didn’t hesitate to speak his mind, even if it was unscripted and, at times, controversial, said Seattle Archbishop J. Cardinal Peter Sartain, Francis who delivered George the homily at a packed funeral Mass at Chicago’s Holy Name Cathedral.

“The cardinal’s faith was simple, direct, without pretense or embarrassment,” Sartain said. “He was so utterly a Christian that no circumstance seemed inappropriate for him

Mourners pray Thursday during the funeral Mass for Cardinal Francis George at Holy Name Cathedral in Chicago. George died April 17 at age 78 after a long battle with cancer. to give witness to Christ.”

George, a Chicago native, died Friday at age 78, of kidney cancer. He was to be buried Thursday in his family’s plot at All Saints Cemetery in nearby Des Plaines.

After being appointed by Pope John Paul II in 1997 to lead the Chicago Archdiocese, George earned a reputation as

an intellectual leader and a leading figure in some of the most prominent events in the U.S. Church.

At the height of the abuse crisis in 2002, George led a group of U.S. bishops who persuaded resistant Vatican officials to more quickly oust guilty priests – a policy at the core of reforms meant to re-

store trust in church leaders.

He also oversaw the contentious new English-language translation of the Roman Missal, one of the biggest changes in Catholic worship in generations.

And in his three years as president of the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops, George spearheaded opposi-

tion to the Affordable Care Act, arguing that the health insurance law would allow taxpayer money to fund abortion. The Chicago archdiocese’s charitable arm helped sue the Obama administration in 2012 over the requirement that employers cover the cost of contraception.

George retired last fall before announcing his treatment for kidney cancer had failed.

He was replaced by Archbishop Blase Cupich.

Hundreds of clergy from around the country, plus Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel and Gov. Bruce Rauner joined lay Catholics at Thursday’s services, which followed three days of visitation.

Lolita Slaughter of suburban Bolingbrook said the funeral Mass was “beautiful, and such a great home-going for the cardinal,” whom she regarded as a steady and stabilizing force.

“I love the way he led the Church even through the controversies,” said Slaughter, 48.

“He helped Catholics come together.”

WASHINGTON – President Barack Obama said Thursday that recent U.S. strikes that killed Americans were consistent with guidelines for counterterrorism efforts, and experts said the attacks appear to have been within the bounds of U.S. law despite what the president called “deadly mistakes.”

The White House said U.S. officials had been unaware that two hostages, an American and an Italian, or that two American al-Qaida operatives were present when the attacks were conducted in January. In a 2011 case, the United States specifically targeted an American, resulting in a lawsuit against the government that later was dismissed.

“I don’t initially see legal problems,” said Chris Edelson, an assistant professor of government at American University and author of “Emergency Presidential Power: From the Drafting of the Constitution to the War on Terror.” “If the attacks were carried out against al-Qaida, they were legitimate under U.S. law.”

Congress gave the president authority to carry out military action against al-Qaida in 2001, after the Sept. 11 attacks. The attacks revealed Thursday were carried out in Pakistan by the CIA, and some have long questioned whether the CIA can impose lethal force.

But the bigger questions the deaths raise are about the quality of U.S. intelligence sur-

rounding drone strikes and whether Obama is living up to his standards for avoiding the loss of innocent lives. “Before any strike is taken, there must be near-certainty that no civilians will be killed or injured – the highest standard we can set,” Obama said in a May 2013 speech at National Defense University.

At least 20 civilians, including six children, have reportedly died in U.S. drone strikes since that speech, according to the Bureau of Investigative Journalism, a London-based group that has been critical of drone strikes. The group said all were in Yemen, as part of at least 31 U.S. drone strikes that have killed at least 153 people.

After Obama announced the near-certainty standard, the frequency of strikes dropped sharply and the use of so-called signature strikes – attacks aimed at large groups of armed men who fit the profile of militants but whose names were not all known to the CIA – was curtailed. But White House press secretary Josh Earnest said the targets in January were the compounds used by al-Qaida leaders, not any individuals specifically.

Obama said he took “full responsibility” for the counterterror missions that took the lives of hostages Warren Weinstein and Giovanni Lo Porto, both captured years ago by al-Qaida while working on aid missions in Pakistan. Obama promised a full review to try to prevent similar deaths in the future.

NATION BRIEFS Pentagon strategy warns of cyberwar capabilities

regulation down on drillers and make it more difficult for them to get projects approved.

A series of government and academic studies over the past few years – including at least two reports released this week alone – has added to the body of evidence implicating the U.S. drilling boom that has created a bounty of jobs and tax revenue over the past decade or so.

On Thursday, the U.S. Geological Survey released the first comprehensive maps pinpointing more than a dozen areas in the central and eastern U.S. that have been jolted by quakes that the researchers said were triggered by drilling. The report said manmade quakes tied to industry operations have been on the rise.

PALO ALTO, Calif. – A new Pentagon cybersecurity strategy lays out for the first time publicly that the U.S. military plans to use cyberwarfare as an option in conflicts with enemies.

The 33-page strategy says the Defense Department “should be able to use cyber operations to disrupt an adversary’s command and control networks, militaryrelated critical infrastructure and weapons capabilities.”

And on Thursday, Defense Secretary Ash Carter revealed for the first time that the Pentagon uncovered a breach by Russian hackers into an unclassified defense computer network earlier this year, but officials were able to identify the intruders within Brown’s parents file 24 hours and kicked them out.

LOS ANGELES – With the evidence coming in from one study after another, scientists are more certain than ever now that oil and gas drilling is causing hundreds upon hundreds of earthquakes across the U.S. So far, the quakes have been mostly small and have done little damage beyond cracking plaster, toppling bricks and rattling nerves. But seismologists warn that the shaking can dramatically increase the chances of bigger, more dangerous quakes.

Up to now, the oil and gas industry has generally argued that any such link requires further study. But the rapidly mounting evidence could bring heavier

Attorneys for Brown’s parents promised the case would bring to light new forensic evidence and raise doubts about the police version of events. Some of that evidence, they said, had been overlooked in previous investigations.

Brown’s parents, Lesley McSpadden and Michael Brown Sr., attended a news conference announcing the lawsuit outside the St. Louis County Courthouse.

Lynch earns confirmation

By ERICA WERNER The Associated Press WASHINGTON – Loretta Lynch won confirmation as the nation’s first black female attorney general Thursday from a Senate that forced her to wait more than five months for the title and remained divided to the end.

The 56-43 vote installs Lynch, now U.S. attorney for the Eastern District of New York, at the Justice Department to replace Eric Holder. Holder has served in the job throughout the Obama administration, becoming a lightning rod for conservatives who perceived him as overly political and liberal, and even getting held in contempt of Congress.

Lynch, 55, is seen as a no-nonsense prosecutor, and has wide law enforcement support.

The issue that tore into her Loretta Lynch support with Republicans was immigration, and her refusal to denounce President Barack Obama’s executive actions limiting deportations for millions of people living illegally in this country. Questioned on the issue at her confirmation hearing in January, she said she believed Obama’s actions were reasonable and lawful.

Democrats angrily criticized Republicans for using the issue against her, saying an executive branch nominee could not be expected to disagree strongly with the president who appointed her, but Republicans were unapologetic.

Announced GOP presidential candidate Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, said Lynch’s comments rendered her “unsuitable for confirmation as attorney general of the United States. That was a shame.”

Yet after returning from the campaign trail to rail against Lynch on the Senate floor Thursday, Cruz was the only senator absent when

Loretta Lynch’s father, Lorenzo Lynch (center), accompanied by Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee, D-Texas, (left) greets supporters Thursday off the Senate floor on Capitol Hill in Washington, D.C., after the Senate voted to confirm Loretta Lynch for Attorney General. Lynch won confirmation to serve as the nation’s attorney general, ending months of delay. The vote was 56-43 in the Senate on Thursday. the vote was called. He voted “no” on a procedural vote earlier in the day, which spokeswoman Amanda Carpenter insisted “was the vote that mattered.” She did not explain why Cruz missed the confirmation vote, but an invitation on his campaign website showed he had a fundraiser in Dallas to attend.

Still, Lynch won the support of 10 Republicans, more than expected in the days heading into the vote. In a surprise, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., was among those voting “yes.”

Obama said the U.S. would be better off with Lynch.

In a speech to his advocacy group, Organizing for Action, Obama said Lynch had established credibility with both law enforcement and civil rights groups, adding that he wanted to work with her to rebuild trust between police and communities in the U.S. “She’s spent her life fighting for the fair and equal justice that’s the foundation of our democracy,” Obama said.

Lynch grew up in Durham, North Carolina, the daughter of an English teacher and a minister. Her father, Lorenzo Lynch, 83, watched from the Senate visitors’ gallery Thursday as his daughter won confirmation.

Afterward, he told reporters: “The good guys won. And that’s what’s been happening in this country all along, even during slavery.”

The long delay in confirming Lynch since she was nominated in November incensed Democrats, with Obama himself weighing in last week to lament Senate dysfunction and decry the wait as “crazy” and “embarrassing.”

There were various reasons for the delay, most recently a lengthy and unexpected impasse over abortion on an unrelated bill to combat sex trafficking that McConnell insisted on finishing before moving to Lynch.

Yet Democrats controlled the Senate when Lynch was nominated last November and could have brought up her nomination for a vote then. They held off with the GOP’s encouragement after being routed in the midterm elections and spent the time confirming judges instead.

There was an expectation that Republican leaders would move Lynch’s nomination swiftly this year, especially because many GOP members of Congress are eager to be rid of Holder.

Instead, the nomination became tangled in the dispute over Obama’s executive actions on immigration, and seemed to stall.

OUR VIEW

Thumbs-up to helping area vets The Herald-News Editorial Board offers this week’s thumbs-ups and thumbs-down: Thumbs-up: to the Healthy Minds Healthy Bodies program that helps injured area veterans become physically fit, the fitness centers that have partnered with the parent organization – AllenForce – and the personal trainers who have voluntarily undergone extra training to work with these veterans.

Too often, veterans don’t receive sufficient support and recognition, so it’s encouraging to see a program that helps veterans strengthen their abilities, whether or not the injury occurred during combat.

Thumbs-down: to games being played when it comes to the state’s finances. We realize it’s going to take time to dig out of the financial quagmire the state is in.

But the ups and downs (Gov. Bruce Rauner cut funding; lawmakers pass proposed measures to reinstate parts of it) are making it hard for local governments, school districts, health care providers and social service agencies to provide needed services.

Some have to lay off people or scale back programs.

Others can’t plan for the next few months because leaders don’t know if they will be able to pay for a given project.

We anticipate any budget plan will be painful – but at least it will provide details of what these agencies can expect.

Thumbs-up: To the city of Joliet for designating a liaison officer to work with the city’s lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender community.

Departments are wise to designate liaison officers to work with particular segments of the community, so residents know that if issues have arisen, there is someone specific they can go to to discuss them with.

Joliet’s willingness to acknowledge a segment of the community that sometimes does not get the attention it should is a good step forward in showing that it is open and welcoming to everyone.

But Cougars pitcher Jordan Harbacek was doing a good job of shutting down the Indians as well, so Hajduk had to take matters into her hands at the plate.

The junior singled to start both innings where her team scored, including the decisive two-run fifth, to cap a 3-for-3 day.

She also tossed a three-hitter to help Minooka claim a 3-1 Southwest Prairie Conference win over South.

Hajduk allowed leadoff hits in the first and fifth and then yielded a two-out single in the seventh and also struck out nine.

The Cougars (8-6, 3-2) scored their lone run in the first, and the Indians (9-6, 5-1) answered with a run in the bottom of the inning.

That set the stage for the fifth when Hajduk singled to right, was sacrificed to second

by Alexa Zito and came home on a double to left by Steffanie Pershey, who also was 3 for 3.

Shannon Stuchly then reached on an error, which scored the final run.

“I’m very happy,” Hajduk said. “I just tried to mix everything up and not get into a routine. Having my defense behind my back is always a confidence-booster, but then sometimes I need to come in clutch with a strikeout. And getting that last hit was definitely a good start to our big inning. I’m used to the pressure from travel ball, so none of that really gets to me.

“I think that we have talent, we just have to put it all together and we’re doing that, but we all just have off days. We’re still just figuring everything out and towards the end of the season we’ll all come together. We’ve all been on travel or in-house teams since we were about 10 years old, so we’ve grown up together and we’re definitely very close.”

In the opening inning,

South’s Angie Giancarlo led off with a single, was sacrificed to second by Kaylin Doran and took third when Kristen Slivka reached on an error. When Slivka was thrown out trying to steal second, Giancarlo came home on the play.

The Cougars couldn’t get much going the rest of the way against the Indians righty, who set them down in order

in four of the next six innings and didn’t allow any other baserunners to advance beyond first base. Abbey Plutz (2 for 3) had South’s other hits.

“We’re struggling hitting the ball right now,” South coach Leah Carter said. “[Hajduk] did an excellent job pitching on the mound. Her riseball really hurt us today since we couldn’t lay off of it. Jordan

has good command and she sprinkled in a few hits, but we held them to three runs even though they had several hits.

“We’re having a hard time manufacturing runs and getting the timely hits. We get people on, but then we’re not pushing runners across the plate, so that’s something that we need to work on. On Monday we beat a really good Waubonsie (Valley) team after being down 2-0 and scoring three runs in the bottom of the seventh. Come May, I think we’ll be in our groove.”

Minooka tied the score in the bottom of the first when Hajduk singled to right and took second when Zito reached on a fielder’s choice on a sacrifice. After Pershey singled to center to load the bases, Stuchly drove in a run with a sacrifice fly to center.

Harbacek allowed two more hits in the second, but the Indi-

ans couldn’t capitalize.

The righty, who finished with three strikeouts, retired six in a row heading into the fifth, but Hajduk snapped that streak and got the game-winning rally started.

“South is a good team that was going to play some good defense,” Indians coach Mark Brown said. “So we needed to come up with some hits to have a big inning, and we were lucky enough to push two across in the fifth, and with Alyssa on the mound, that was all that we needed. When Alyssa’s on, she’s very tough to hit ,and today she was on.

“I’d like to see us be more consistent since we’ve been up and down. But once the weather breaks, and May comes around, I think we’ll see more consistent play. Right now, we’re working on some things, and I think in a couple of week’s that we’’l be just fine.”

BASEBALL: LOCKPORT 8, JOLIET CENTRAL 4

By TIM CRONIN Shaw Media Correspondent

• Friday, April 24, 2015

JOLIET – Mike Stevens is 6-foot-6, and looks as if he can reach out and touch home plate from the mound.

The Lockport junior can’t quite do that, but he can certainly stifle a rally. Stevens did so on Thursday at Joliet Central, pitching five scoreless innings in relief in Lockport’s 8-4 comeback victory over the Steelmen.

Central had led the SouthWest Suburban Blue matchup, 4-1, after the four-run second, after which Stevens took over for senior Jordan Johnston. That was the end of the party for the upstart Steelmen (5-12, 1-3), who had won three of their previous four games, the lone setback a 5-0 blanking by the Porters (11-5, 4-0) on Tuesday in Lockport.

Stevens scattered two hits and retired the last seven Central batters while striking out only one to pick up the victory. The Steelmen could hit the ball, just not where they wanted or very far, thanks to, said Stevens, being on the money with his three pitches for the first time this season.

“You have to come in, throw strikes and get them out as fast as possible,” Stevens said. “That was the only thing I focused on today, throwing strikes.”

Of his 51 pitches, 36 were over the plate.

“We’re really proud of Michael,” Lockport coach Andy Satunas said. “He really stepped up for us in a big situation today. He has to mix his pitches, and when he does that, gets them out on his front foot, good things happen.”

Lockport scored twice in the fourth to close the gap, three times in the fifth to take the lead, and added a pair of insurance runs in the seventh.

Pitcher Tyler Lawson’s high throw to first on Anthony Cocco’s soft grounder allowed Porters Stephen Hill and Ben Wisaba to score to cut the lead to 4-3 in the fourth.

Lockport’s four-hit fifth featured a triple by Hill (2 for 4), which pushed home Jeremy Quade with the lead run after Ryne Travis had singled home

Tyler Nassar. It became 6-4 when Wisaba (2 for 3) dinked a single into short center. Lawson went 6 2/3 innings and took the loss.

A pair of Central errors in the seventh helped the Porters to their last two runs and sealed the Steelmen’s fate.

“These are the things that have been happening to us all year long,” Central coach Kevin Fitzgerald said. “We got up early, then we kind of die down a little bit. We had a couple defensive lapses. In high school baseball, the team with the fewer lapses usually wins,

and Lockport made less mistakes.

“We were able to get to the pitcher early, and the second guy shut us down. He kept us off balance with his curveball.”

The Steelmen’s big second inning began with Lockport

second baseman Cocco misplaying Lawson’s grounder.

Lawson stole second, moved to third on Austin Hughes’ single to center and scored on Michael Bautista’s grounder.

Hughes scored on Jontel McNair’s double to left, and McNair came home on Luke DeBenedetti’s sacrifice fly.

Christian Smith’s two-out rip to left-center scored Fred Hernandez, who had walked.

Johnston threw 32 pitches in the inning after throwing 21 in the first, and that was enough for Satunas.

He brought in Stevens and he brought a halt to Central’s fun.

BASEBALL: PLAINFIELD CENTRAL 8, PLAINFIELD SOUTH 2

Blazevic helps Wildcats salvage series finale

By TIM TIERNEY Shaw Media Correspondent JOLIET – After Plainfield South baseball won the first two games of the Southwest Prairie Conference series, Plainfield Central’s Austin Blazevic went to the mound Thursday with a focus.

“They’re a big rival of ours, so I didn’t want us to get swept,” Blazevic said. “We came out with a lot of energy and got a big W.” Blazevic pitched a complete-game five-hitter, and Central put together a five-run second inning en route to an 8-2 victory at South.

“Getting those runs early in the game helped, especially after losing the first two games,”

Central coach John Rosner said. “When you jump on somebody, it’s always nice to have that lead and that cushion throughout the game.”

Central (10-8, 4-5) lost 5-3, Tuesday and 7-0, Wednesday, but the Wildcats never trailed in the series finale.

“After yesterday’s loss, we had a long talk,” sophomore third baseman Brandon Callender said. “It was kind of a heart-to-heart. We’ve been losing a few lately, but we bounced back.”

Blazevic reached on an infield error to start the second inning, and back-to-back singles by John Tesch (2 for 4) and Callender (3 for 3, run, three RBIs) brought home the game’s first run.

A one-out single by Zack Houghton gave Central a 2-0 lead before John Nudera ripped a two-run triple to center. Johnny Kostelz delivered an RBI groundout for the 5-0 cushion.

“We hadn’t been hitting the first two games, but today we really came through and strung a lot of hits together, put up a lot of runs,” Blazevic said.

Meanwhile, Blazevic did his job on the mound. He retired the first six batters he faced and yielded only three singles through the first six innings.

“I felt really good going into the game, had a good bullpen,” Blazevic said. “Right from the start, I felt really comfortable

with all three of my pitches.”

“He pitched really well,” Rosner said. “He was able to command all three pitches – fastball, curve and the changeup – and throw all of them for strikes. When you can do that, they’re going to put the ball in play. Our defense played pretty well behind him.”

That included a diving catch by center fielder Danny Brandon in the fifth inning.

Rosner described Blazevic’s changeup as “something special.”

“It was really working for me,” Blazevic said. “I went to it a lot.”

Plainfield South (11-6, 4-5) had a 1.94 team ERA going into the game. Starting pitcher Sam Sauder went into the se-

ries finale with an ERA under 2.00.

“We were bound to have an inning where our pitcher gave up some ropes,” South coach Phil Bodine said. “They hit the ball, they went the other way.

They had a great approach.”

Central scored runs in the third and fourth innings, and South pushed across a run in the bottom half of both innings. Central added a run in the seventh.

“We’ve been playing real good baseball,” Bodine said.

“We beat Lincoln-Way East last Saturday. We beat St. Charles North. Then we won the first two of the series.

“I’ll take two out of three.

We do that next week, I’ll be a happy man.”

MEN’S VOLLEYBALL: MIDWEST INTERCOLLEGIATE VOLLEYBALL ASSOCIATION QUARTERFINAL – LEWIS VS. GRAND CANYON

Larry W. Kane for Shaw Media

Lewis’ Eric Fitterer (from left), Bobby Walsh and Greg Petty go up for a block against Ohio State on April 17 at Neil Carey Arena in Romeoville. The No. 1 Flyers are the best team in the nation at blocking as they average 3.41 blocks a set. No other team in the country averages at least 3 blocks.

Flyers named to the All-MIVA first team.

Close behind is Schmiegelt, who averages 1.2 blocks per set.

The sophomore middle has had 90 block assists and eight solo blocks and has been named the MIVA Defensive Player of the Week twice.

“I thank these guys every single day because of how easy they make my job,” senior libero Lucas Yanez said. “Other teams are not as fortunate to have big, physical guys like we do and I think that it will lead to us being even better later in the season.”

The Flyers have posted 10 or more blocks in 17 of 24 matches. Most recently, against Ohio State and McKendree, Lewis had

18.5 and 19 blocks, respectively.

Both middles credit their blocking success to their coaches – Friend, the MIVA Coach of the Year, and assistants Matt McCarthy and Marc Denson.

“The last couple of games, we have been blocking an insane number of balls,” Walsh added. “Our coaches put out great scouting reports to let us know what the other team is going to do and what their hitting tendencies are. It’s worked out well for us.”

Another thing that works in favor of the middles is their competitiveness. Schmiegelt said that the two have gone head-tohead since Day 1. It started off with the two trying to play better

offensively, then it transferred to blocks.

“He keeps bragging to me that he’s leading the nation with 1.55 blocks per set,” Schmiegelt said.

“But I’ve gotten the past two out of three defensive players of the week because of my blocking, so I have one more than him and that’s sweet.”

Walsh competes not only with his teammate to be the best.

He competed with his younger brother, Matt Walsh (Ball State), throughout the season to be the nation’s top blocker and now the siblings are finalists for Off the Block’s national blocker of the year.

Aside from Walsh and Schmiegelt, four Flyers – Geoff

• Friday, April 24, 2015

ROMEOVILLE – In most sports, defense wins championships. If the saying holds true in the Midwest Intercollegiate Volleyball Association tournament, the Lewis men’s volleyball team will be in position to do exactly that.

Most people think about the back row when they talk about defense, but it starts at the net for Lewis. The No. 1 Flyers are the best team in the nation at blocking as they average 3.41 blocks a set. No other team in the country averages at least three blocks.

“We’re an aggressive blocking team and our coach [Dan Friend] wants us to get touches to make it easier on the defense,” Lewis redshirt sophomore middle blocker Jacob Schmiegelt said. “The more touches that we get, the easier it becomes for the back row. When we don’t get touches, they do get amazing digs, but that’s because we are set up where we want to be and funnel it to the player we want it to go to.”

Leading the way for the Flyers (24-2) at the net is junior middle blocker Bobby Walsh. Walsh has 121 total blocks (105 assists, 16 solo), averaged a nation-high 1.55 blocks per set and has been honored throughout the season.

He has been named a Sports Imports/American Volleyball Coaches Association National Player of the Week, a MIVA Defensive Player of the Week and Thursday, he was among five

Powell (75), Eric Fitterer (74), Scott Fifer (68) and Greg Petty (62) – each have more than 50 total blocks.

With so many hits being stopped at the net, the back row does not see as much action as it normally would. Yanez leads the team with 158 digs, while Powell has 144, Petty 100, Fifer 98 and Fitterer 95.

Yanez, an All-MIVA firstteam libero, admits some matches he gets only eight touches. Every time the ball comes to him, however, he knows that it’s his job make a perfect pass so Fifer can set the strong Lewis offense.

Another part of his role is to stay positive for his team and focused so that he digs the hard hits when they come.

“It would be more difficult to stay engaged if you were on a team that is not as successful as we are,” Yanez said. “But when you’re on a team with Geoff, Greg and everyone else, I think that it’s easier because of the plays that they make. With their athletic ability, you’re in for a highlight every single play. Every single point, I have the best seat on the court to watch them.”

The Flyers host Grand Canyon in the MIVA quarterfinals at 7 p.m. Saturday at Neil Carey Arena.

“It’s awesome that we finished first in the MIVA, so we’ll be playing at home for the tournament,” Walsh said. “We have an awesome group of fans that come out for our games. It’d be awesome to have people come to Saturday’s game to support us.”

MILWAUKEE – Derrick Rose scored 34 points, Jimmy Butler added 24 and the Bulls beat the Milwaukee Bucks, 113-106, in double overtime Thursday night to take a 3-0 lead in their Eastern Conference first-round playoff series.

Jimmy Butler got the second overtime off to a rousing start, intercepting a backcourt pass from Giannis Antetokounmpo and racing in for a layup. It set the tone for an 8-0 run that gave the Bulls a 109-101 lead with 2:44 left to finally shake the pesky Bucks.

‘A WHIRLWIND OF GO, GO, GO’ Joliet Junior College pastry chef is competitor on latest Food Network series More online

By DENISE M. BARAN-UNLAND dunland@shawmedia.com JOLIET – Andy Chlebana, pastry chef and culinary instructor at Joliet Junior College, stood behind the door with the other competitors straining to hear something, anything to offer a clue as to what was happening on the other side.

Then the doors opened and they walked onto the set of Food Network’s latest series, “Spring Baking Championship,” and their first challenge.

The show premieres at 8 p.m.

Sunday and runs six weeks.

Unlike Chlebana’s past experience with competitions – and even “Sugar Fashion,” the televised Foot Network challenge Chlebana participated in back in 2011 – he would not be allowed an assistant. He was on his own.

Chlebana has won numerous awards and had subsequently sworn off further competitions. But he agreed to do this show for two reasons.

First, Chlebana wanted his children – Abigail and Annabel, 12; Andy, 10; and Adler, 7 – as well as his wife Heather to see him in action.

But Chlebana also wanted his JJC students to see him working under intense pressure – pressure so great that Chlebana said he was tempted to quit. Then he remembered his desire to be a good role model for his students.

“There was this whirlwind of ‘Go, go, go.’ This isn’t teaching, which I’ve done for the last nine years,” Chlebana said. “The first couple of days I was sore; God I was sore. And then I started thinking, ‘I can do this. I’ve done this before.’ ” Chlebana’s attitude, said Chef Michael McGreal, chair of JJC’s culinary arts department, is the mark of a dedicated teacher who continually pushes and improves his skills so he can bring those experiences back to the classroom.

McGreal said he is proud

Know more According to information from the Food Network, competitors on each of the six hour-long “Spring Baking Championship” episodes – hosted by Bobby Deen – will test their abilities and attempt to win over the judges with a variety of spring baking challenges.

The grand prize is $50,000 and the title of Spring Baking Champion.

Chlebana recorded his video during a class, with his students asking questions while they worked. One mandatory question stumped Chlebana: “What’s your favorite spring dessert?”

“I’m like, I don’t have a spring dessert. To me, when I think of spring, I think of fresh fruit.

“It was quite a challenge to put on the baker’s hat,” Chlebana said.

Other challenges included limited amounts of equipment and finding out that both the equipment and basic ingredients were not stored in the same place every day, Chlebana said, making it difficult to remember their location.

“It was like the pantry was alive,” Chlebana said.

Chlebana said he also paced how and when he used his tools to prevent wasting precious minutes on washing dishes. For instance, Chlebana said he received a large whisk and a small whisk. Requests for additional whisks were met with, “Nope, sorry, that’s all we’ve got.”

With a chuckle, Chlebana said that, in the heat of preparation, he certainly couldn’t call out to the producers, “Can you bring me five more whisks?”

“It doesn’t work that way,” Chlebana said.

BRIDGE by Phillip Alder

When unsure, play probabilities

CELEBRITY CIPHER

Agnes de Mille, a former dancer and choreographer, said, “Living is a form of not being sure, not knowing what next or how. ... We guess. We may be wrong, but we take leap after leap in the dark.”

At the bridge table, we do have to guess occasionally, but more often there are sufficient clues to make the right choice clear.

In today’s deal, cover the South and West hands. South is in four spades. West leads the heart two.

How should East plan the defense?

In the auction, West used the Unusual No-trump, showing at least 5-5 in the two lowest-ranking unbid suits: clubs and diamonds. North just blasted into four spades, hoping that if the opponents sacrificed in five clubs, partner would be able to double.

When West leads the heart two, East knows that it is either a singleton or from three cards. When you face an either-or position like this, usually the bidding will tell you which it is.

Here, if West started with 0-3-5-5, South would have begun with an unlikely 7-1-1-4. If West held 2-1-5-5, though, South would have 5-3-1-4, which is much more probable.

So, East wins the first trick and (tries to) give his partner a heart ruff at trick two. And because East’s potential re-entry is in clubs, the lower-ranking of the other two side suits, he carefully leads his heart three, which sends a so-called suit-preference signal.

Now the pressure is on West.

After ruffing at trick two, he must trust his partner and shift to a low club. East will win with his king and deliver a second heart ruff to defeat the contract.

be placed in a continuous passive motion (CPM) machine that bends and straightens your leg.

The hospital staff will help you get out of bed and move around. Before you go home, you’ll be asked to show you can get in and out of bed without help.

You’ll also have to show you can walk with a walker, cane or crutches, and manage stairs or other obstacles you may face at home.

Once home, you should regularly see a physical therapist, who can design an exercise program tailored to your individual needs and goals.

Over the next weeks and months, the more you exercise and participate in physical therapy, the more successful your recovery will be.

Be diligent about performing the targeted exercises prescribed by your physical therapist.

You also should gradually increase the distance you walk or the duration you are active.

By the first week or two after surgery, you should be walking with a cane.

After a few weeks, you should no longer need the cane. By three to six months, you should be back to normal.

About three to six weeks after surgery, people usually can resume their normal activities.

This includes low-impact activities such as walking, swimming and riding a bicycle. However, it may be several months before your doctor says it’s OK to resume high-impact sports.

Dear Dr. K: I’m having knee replacement surgery next month.

What can I do to speed my recovery and get back on my feet as quickly as possible?

Dear Reader: I’m glad you asked, because you are very important in making the outcome of your surgery completely successful.

A knee replacement is major surgery. During the procedure, the surgeon removes damaged sections of your shin bone and thigh bone. He or she cuts the bone to precisely fit the shape of the replacement implant, then attaches the artificial joint at the knee.

(I’ve put an illustration of a total knee replacement on my website, www.askdoctork.com.)

Joint replacement surgery usually is scheduled weeks or months in advance. That’s important, because one of the best things you can do for a successful joint replacement is to make your joint as strong and healthy as possible before your surgery.

Studies have found that “prehabilitation” – exercise and strength training performed before joint replacement – can help prevent pain and speed up recovery after the fact.

Exercises that strengthen the muscles of your legs obviously are important. But so are exercises to strengthen your arms: You’ll be depending on them to move you around on crutches or walkers after the surgery. And if you’re overweight, do what you can to lose weight: The heavier you are, the more pressure you will be placing on your new knee. Ask your doctor about “prehab” programs in your area.

In the hospital, shortly after the surgery is complete, you will be asked to start moving your feet and ankles. Your leg may

talk with your folks and explain that while they may wish you loved your body the way it is, you don’t. Tell them you don’t feel wanting the surgery is superficial and you feel it will give you confidence about your appearance you don’t have now.

The decision about whether to have plastic surgery is a personal one.

No one should make it for you; the choice should be yours and yours alone.

If you regret it later, you can have the implants removed. Some women have done that – but most women don’t.

Dear Abby: I am planning a wedding this summer. My fiancé and I are paying for it ourselves, so we are trying to keep it within a budget. I’m so excited I want to shout it from the rooftops because I thought this day would never happen.

My problem is, when I have shared the news of our engagement, some people have told me, “I can’t wait to get my invitation.” We have already made up our guest list

DEAR ABBY Jeanne Phillips and they aren’t on it, so how can I tactfully reply without offending? My fiancé and I have even discussed whether it would be worth the extra money each guest will cost in order to keep the peace and not have anyone carry a grudge against us. –

Struggling To Be Polite In Virginia Dear Struggling: When

someone who is not on your guest list says he or she can’t wait to receive an invitation, that’s your cue to explain that due to budget constraints, your wedding will be small – pretty much immediate family only. No one can argue with that.

Dear Abby: Yesterday I spent the afternoon with a friend who was in town for her husband’s business conference. Her 20-yearold son called her because he had broken the screen on his cellphone.

Over the next two hours as we visited, she took phone calls from him, researched places to get his phone fixed, then proceeded to fill out insurance forms on her phone for the repair while I sat there. I finally stood up and said I was leaving because she seemed to be “busy.”

She immediately became offended and rudely said, “Well. Sorry I p-d you off.”

Abby, it was a broken cellphone, not a broken arm. Am I wrong for feeling the way I do? We have been friends for more than 30 years. – Insulted

In Reno Dear Insulted: You’re not wrong. Your friend must have thought her son’s predicament was an emergency, which is why she felt compelled to deal with it immediately.

Dear Abby: I am 23 years old, working full-time as a teacher and I’m about to move out of my parents’ house. I have decided to have breast augmentation surgery, and I know the best time to do it would be this summer so I’ll have time to recover before school starts.

The problem is my parents are adamantly against my having this surgery.

I’ve heard it all: “I wish you loved your body the way it is.” “That’s so superficial,” and “You’ll regret it!”

I would wait until I move out, but my new place (which is being built) won’t be finished until the end of the school year. I have postponed this surgery for several years, and now I have the money and I’m ready. How can I please my parents and also please myself? – Tired Of

Respond quickly to a chance to take on a leadership position. Review personal documents to avoid missing a financial opportunity. Persistence and moderation will pay off.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) – Spice up your life, but don’t overspend, or the fun will soon be over. A short excursion will turn out to be as impressive as an expensive travel package.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) – You can make a contri-

bution to worthy organizations without depleting your bank account. Volunteer your time or skills, and make a positive and effective difference.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) – You will be determined, but don’t let your persistence lead to tunnel vision that blinds you to interesting options. A close friend will offer valuable advice.

Be receptive to changing trends.

support you need.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) – Someone with ulterior motives will press you for information.

Keep your opinions and aspirations to yourself, or you will risk damaging your reputation and prospects.
