JOLIET – A Frankfort Township man proposed to his girlfriend hours after prosecutors say he killed a woman at his home.

Brian Trainauskas, 40, asked Sarah Volk’s parents for her hand in marriage when he came over for dinner Jan. 21, 2009, according to testimony Thursday at Trainauskas’ bench trial on charges of murder and concealing a hoBrian micide.

Trainauskas’ lawyers Trainauskas called Volk and her mother as their only witnesses after Judge Dave Carlson ruled prosecutors had met the burden of proof to show Monica Timar was the victim in the case.

Defense attorney James Sarros had argued Tuesday that prosecutors hadn’t tied enough evidence together to prove it was Timar’s body that was autopsied.

“It was cold [which would affect] rigor mortis. We have no way of knowing how long that body had been in that trunk,” Sarros said Thursday.

“Assuming I don’t consider your client’s statements,” Carlson said, referring to a videotaped interview Trainauskas had with Will County Sheriff’s detectives that was

played in court earlier.

Carlson said comparison of a necklace visible in a photo taken when she was alive, which Timar’s brother-in-law identified, and another photo of the necklace at the autopsy contributed to the circumstantial evidence needed for identification.

Prosecutors allege Trainauskas used a shotgun to kill Timar in his basement early on Jan. 21, 2009. Volk testified she’d gone to North Dakota with Trainauskas the weekend before and looked for a place for him to move into, but returned Sunday to get his residence ready for a showing to potential buyers.

Trainauskas’ attorneys argued the planned move is why detectives found signs of recent painting and cleaning in his basement bathroom when they searched his house.

“During the execution of the search warrant, the rest of the house is in disarray. ...

It’s not being prepared for a showing in two days,” Assistant State’s Attorney Elizabeth Domagalla said during closing arguments.

Defense attorney George Andrews noted police did not fingerprint the keys, cellphone or wallet found in Timar’s car and doorknobs, computer keyboards and access keypads at Trainauskas’ house because they’d already identified a suspect and didn’t make the effort for a complete investigation.

“[The police work] was the closest modern-day version of the Keystone Cops that I can imagine,” Andrews said.

Andrews also argued evidence of a contact wound from the shotgun shows Timar was “a willing participant in her demise” who was not struggling.

“Did she shoot herself then drive the car and climb in the trunk?” Assistant Will County State’s Attorney Dan Walsh asked during closing rebuttal. “Did she shoot herself in the trunk and then get rid of the shotgun?”

Trainauskas was interviewed by police after the body was found and allegedly gave statements that implicated him in Timar’s death, but an appellate court ruled the statements could only be used if Trainauskas testified, which he declined to do Thursday.

Trainauskas also is accused of trying to hire another inmate at the Will County jail to kill an assistant state’s attorney. This inmate would also allegedly force another person to confess to Timar’s slaying, prosecutors say, and then would subsequently kill that person.

That case awaits resolution of this trial, which could give Trainauskas a life sentence behind bars if he is convicted.

Carlson said he would review the evidence presented and determine his verdict in two weeks.

Will County extends overweight truck permit ordinance for Arsenal Road

By LAUREN LEONE-CROSS lleonecross@shawmedia.com JOLIET – The Will County Board voted Thursday to extend what was a 90-day ordinance allowing for permitted overweight trucks on Arsenal Road – but not without reservations.

Existing roads will continue to suffer from the wearand-tear of overweight trucks if a permanent solution isn’t found, said Will County Board Speaker Jim Moustis, R-Frankfort.

He and other board members called on representatives from the trucking and logistics industry, present for the public comment period, to step up and pitch ideas for road main-

tenance revenue.

“You cannot expect the taxpaying public, or I might say, permit fees, to maintain roads,” Moustis said. “I get the feeling, when I get calls from the industry, that somehow now you feel it’s a right or the norm to run overweight trucks. ... The industry needs to come up with different solutions.”

The Illinois Commerce Commission’s closure of the railway crossing at Walter Strawn Drive earlier this year erased a major entry point to the CenterPoint Intermodal Center parks in Joliet and Elwood.

Talks between Will County and IDOT are ongoing about the state taking over the county-owned Arsenal Road and

streamlining the regional trucking permit system.

In the meantime, the county had no choice but to extend the weight limit another 60 days through July to keep commerce flowing, several county officials said.

Representatives from the trucking and logistics industry at the meeting seemed equally frustrated by the piecemeal approach, and called for a permanent solution.

“We’re grateful you gave us a lifeboat,” said Matt Szybowicz, general manager for Barr Freight System in Bolingbrook.

“But the bottom line is our customers will not be patient.

They can move [elsewhere]. ...

They’re simply losing patience with the uncertainty.”

Abraham Lincoln National Cemetery will focus on honoring Vietnam veterans

JOLIET – Playing patriotic music at the Abraham Lincoln National Cemetery on Memorial Day is always the highlight of John Herder’s year.

Herder is the president of the Joliet American Legion Band, which annually has performed at the Memorial Day ceremony since the national cemetery opened in 1999. Herder said he considers the volunteer group the “official band for that cemetery.”

“All they have to do is ask and we’re there. … It’s a very impressive service and ceremony,” Herder said. “… Our band members look forward to this engagement every year.

It’s the highlight of our year.”

The national cemetery is one of many local veteran organizations, towns and other groups throughout Grundy and Will counties planning Memorial Day ceremonies Monday. The day memorializes those who died while serving in the U.S. military.

Will County

Plainfield will have its annual Memorial Day observance at 11 a.m. at Settlers Park. This year the event will include a re-dedication of the Veterans Memorial statue, which was moved this week

by Bolingbrook-based Stevenson Crane Service to the park, said John Argoudelis, former Plainfield Township supervisor.

“It’s a monument we [have] seen all our lives on Route 59, which will now be part of the

People will gather at Ira Jones Middle School at 10 a.m. and march to Settlers Park,

where the Memorial Day program will begin at 11 a.m., he said.

The ceremony at Abraham Lincoln National Cemetery will begin at 11 a.m. Monday, which will feature not only the Joliet American Legion Band but local vocalists, re-enactors and guest speakers.

The ceremony will focus on honoring Vietnam War veter-

ans, marking the official 50th anniversary of the conflict, said Lynne Phelan, the cemetery’s administrative officer.

“People think of [Memorial Day] as a holiday, but it’s a day to pay special tribute to the sacrifices of our veterans and their families,” Phelan said.

‘IT TAKES A TEAM’ TO DO THEIR JOB

Will County Sheriff’s Office recognizes deputies, staff during awards ceremony

By BRIAN STANLEY bstanley@shawmedia.com JOLIET – From civilian staff to veteran deputies, the Will County Sheriff’s police recognized a litany of accomplishments Thursday.

“I think of the department as my family. They made me what I am,” said Sgt. James Holuj, who was named Supervisor of the Year. “It takes a team to do [our work].”

Holuj, who is assigned to the Homer Glen Community Policing Unit, is also supervisor of the bicycle unit and Honor Guard member.

David Dobrowski, a 25-year veteran who was selected as the VFW Cantigny Post Deputy of the Year earlier this year received a medal from the department in recognition.

In addition to his own cases, Dobrowski is credited with offering his expertise in cellphones and social media to assist other detectives.

Dobrowski was a detective from 2001 to 2005 and returned to that division in 2009. He is also a member of the department’s SWAT team and is the

Det. Sgt. Dan Jungles received a Meritorious Service Award for supervision in both investigations and high-tech crimes.

“He is a humble man who inspires others to do the best job possible,” Contro said.

Correctional Deputy Paul Sedlacek was also recognized for Meritorious Service.

Lifesaving awards were given to Kim Topolewski, who found an unresponsive woman with a car that had crashed in a field on a cold night, Steve Mathis, who performed CPR Brian Stanley – bstanley@shawmedia.com on a woman overdosing on Will County Undersheriff Robert Contro (left) recognizes Deputy Steven Kirsch for 25 years of service at the heroin, Bryan Lukich, who found a man having a heart sheriff’s annual awards banquet Thursday in Joliet. attack and performed CPR, negotiation team leader. “[His] professionalism was Dave Gorman, lead cook and Sgt.

Ikea, Cadence advance despite Joliet residents’ pleas

By BOB OKON bokon@shawmedia.com JOLIET – Plans for new warehouse and trucking operations advanced Thursday despite pleas from homeowners to do something to slow down development along Route 53.

“Route 53 is such a mess at the present time. Adding more to it is bad. It’s just a hazardous situation,” said Don Walden, one of the plan commissioners who voted for the two projects.

The Plan Commission and Zoning Board of Appeals approved plans for 2.8 millionsquare-feet of Ikea warehouse space and a Cadence Premier Logistics project that will include a trucking operation

along with a corporate office and warehouse space.

Both will go into the Laraway Crossing Business Park at Route 53 and Laraway Road.

The Joliet City Council still most vote on certain elements of the two plans.

Walden and other members of the two panels told residents they needed to work with local officials to get a handle on the growing truck traffic.

At the zoning board meeting, Chairman Ed Hennessy suggested that the city appoint a liaison with area residents to deal with problems caused by the expanding logistics industry on the south end of Joliet.

“This is development that is going to happen,” Hennessy

said before he, too, voted for the zoning variations and permits sought by Ikea and Cadence.

Hennessy said residents at the meeting “are right. The infrastructure has not happened.

This is a catch-up game.”

The two meetings went on for four straight hours with residents sitting through both of them as they tried to make their case.

“What I’ve seen so far is we share our complaints and nothing happens,” Eric Sperstad said.

He asked for some kind of noise wall between the Ikea development and his Sugar Creek neighborhood. But none was offered.

The Ikea project includes

two, twin buildings. Each will have 115 foot-high storage towers and consist of 1.4 million square feet.

An Ikea project manager said each warehouse would generate an average of 50 trucks a day. But residents said the latest developments are adding to already dangerous road conditions.

“It’s almost suicide to come out onto Route 53,” said Hazel Harris, a resident on Pheasant Run Road.

“My quality of life is going to be gone, and I can’t afford to move because my property value is down so much,” Chris Cartwright, a resident of the nearby Sugar Creek neighborhood said. “I just want some-

thing that’s going to buffer my property a little bit.”

The Cadence project includes a truck repair shop, fueling station and convenience store. The zoning board approved a special use permit to allow video gaming there, too.

But Cadence Chief Executive Officer said the trucking facility is not a truck stop.

The trucking facility will open at 6 a.m. and probably close at 8 p.m., Caylor said.

It will feature sales of compressed natural gas for trucks, but diesel fuel also will be sold.

Caylor said the operation will run on a subscription basis and will not be open to any truck that drives in off the street.

By VIKAAS SHANKER vshanker@shawmedia.com JOLIET – Four William B. Orenic Intermediate School students who created a business concept and presented it at an expo last month received a big surprise mid-day Thursday.

Sixth-graders Alyssa Anderson, Sydney Kurtyak, Ava Grutzius and Iris Cobb were presented with certificates of achievement after an angel investor saw their pet care service idea, called “SIVISSA,” and decided to invest $100 in the school’s young entrepreneurs program.

“It was kind of surprising because there were so many other good businesses [at the expo],” Iris said. “But when you see that we worked as hard as we did, it wasn’t that surprising.”

The four were among the more than 70 students from schools serviced by the Joliet Region Chamber of Commerce and Industry to be trained in a “Real Life Entrepreneur” curriculum, according to a Troy news release.

The program was part of an initiative by the Joliet Chamber’s Education Committee to spark an entrepreneurial spirit in younger children.

“It’s a great partnership between business and education,” said Larry Wiers, a committee member and school partnerships director at Lewis University.

The four students came up with the SIVISSA concept during the school year, after they identified a need for a service that welcomes pets,

They developed a business concept off that idea and presented it at the April 28 Young Entrepreneurship Expo at the University of St. Francis.

Wiers, a former Troy superintendent, represented the secret angel investor who was only identified as a Chicago-area businessman.

“SIVISSA’s team had an incredibly polished pitch and

a true passion for their business that is necessary for success,” the investor said in a statement, adding the four students identified a real need, analyzed the competition and determined a realistic price point.

“They had well-thought-out

answers to all of my questions and I walked away feeling inspired by their passion,” the investor said. “My only regret is that I don’t live in Joliet. Let me know when you expand to Chicago so my dog can get the SIVISSA treatment!”

The SIVISSA team was honored in front of a full lunchroom of fellow students.

“When they called us down, I thought it was about something completely different,” Ava said.

“I was just shaking the entire time I was up there,” Alyssa said, adding Ava had to nudge her to relax.

“We weren’t really expecting this,” Sydney said.

Also on hand to congratulate the students were Troy School Board President Mark Griglione, William B. Orenic Principal Larry Piatek and the young entrepreneurs’ sponsor Chris Giugler.

“This really comes down to their complete and total ownership of the idea,” Giugler said. “The big part was they did a tremendous job of managing not just at the club, but at home.”

Wiers said two other projects from the expo also received secret angel investments. Students for those projects will be surprised at their schools soon.

In the next six years, IDOT estimates 40 percent of Illinois highways and one in seven bridges will be in unacceptable condition because of underfunding.

“A little congestion isn’t such a bad thing. If we didn’t’ have any congestion at all ... our economy probably isn’t working very well,” Blankenhorn said. “But we’re probably a little beyond that.”

By LAUREN LEONE-CROSS lleonecross@shawmedia.com JOLIET – Business and community leaders attending the Joliet Region Chamber of Commerce & Industry luncheon Thursday agreed on one thing when speaking with Illinois Department of Transportation Acting Secretary Randy Blankenhorn.

Being home to the largest inland port in the U.S. is both a blessing and a curse.

It’s a blessing in the sense that Will County has become a champion in the Midwest for the transportation and logistics industry, but also it’s a curse because of the traffic that comes with it.

State investment is the cure, several said Thursday during Blankenhorn’s stop in Joliet. “[Interstate 80] would be a wonderful project to widen, to ease the congestion for the heart of Joliet, which is where I have been doing business for 40 years,” George Rydman, who owns a court reporting firm downtown, told Blanken-

Blankenhorn’s stop Thursday in Joliet marked the last

legs of the state transportation agency’s 39-city “IDOT Listening Tour.”

It was a chance to hear from residents, businesses and lo-

cal leaders in identifying infrastructure challenges and setting funding priorities as IDOT looks to craft a new sixyear construction capital plan.

Blankenhorn was quick to warn that roads, rail and bridges will only deteriorate further without a more-stable funding source. Even then, it’ll be a matter of prioritizing as state lawmakers grapple with budget shortfalls heading into the next fiscal year, he said.

“No matter what happens, there are more projects than there’s going to be dollars,” he said. “The infrastructure needs are almost endless. So we have to look at, ‘What is this investment going to get us?’ ”

JOLIET

THE HERALD-NEWS JOLIET – The Illinois Department of Transportation has announced additional lane closures will be required for work on the northbound Interstate 55 exit ramp to U.S. Route 30 in Joliet beginning, weather permitting, Tuesday.

In order to complete the work, necessary for patching concrete pavement, one of the two left turn lanes will be

closed, according to an IDOT news release. The ramp will remain open to both eastbound and westbound Route 30 at all times.

The closure is expected to be removed May 29.

Other remaining work on the northbound and southbound exit ramps to Route 30 includes diamond grinding pavement, sealing joints, concrete shoulder repair and striping.

All work on the ramps is expected to wrap up in the next few weeks. Occasional daytime closures during off peak hours will be used to complete this work, according to IDOT. Motorists can expect delays and should allow extra time for trips through this area. Drivers are urged to pay close attention to flaggers and signs in the work zones, obey the posted speed limits and be alert for workers and equipment.

Blankenhorn said the state must look to new ways to generate revenue, noting how the gas tax – a dwindling funding source for roads – is simply no longer sustainable.

Blankenhorn told the crowd the results from the listening tour will lead to a package of recommendations for Rauner and state lawmakers for consideration. He expects to have a report to Rauner next week.

MINOOKA – Between rolling out a new full-day kindergarten program and hiring a new superintendent, the Minooka Community Consolidated School District 201 Board has some big decisions coming.

In a study session Wednesday night, Board President Jim Satorius addressed the progression of the superintendent search.

Superintendent Al Gegenheimer is retiring, with his contract ending June 5. An interim superintendent will be named until a replacement is found, with a target of July.

Satorius said Dave Love, consultant for the Illinois Association of School Boards hired to conduct the search, said there are 31 applicants for the position, with a cutoff date of May 27.

The board will interview six candidates; three finalists will be interviewed by the board and a community panel.

Gegenheimer said he has a list of 35 people who the board has recommended to develop a community panel, comprised of local clergy, district staff, parents and local business owners.

Another undertaking is preparing for the full-day kindergarten program. New kindergarten and fine arts teachers need to be hired and the classrooms need age-appropriate furniture. Gegenheimer said five teachers will be recommended for approval at the May 27 board meeting.

Assistant Superintendent Stephen Palaniuk said kindergarten enrollment is un-

“Aux Sable Elementary School has five kindergarten positions, but the numbers are low after Kindergarten Round-up, so that school may only need four teachers. However, Walnut Trails and Minooka Elementary School, who have four kindergarten positions, are seeing higher numbers and may each need an extra teacher.�

balanced at this time, so some schools may not need the number of teachers allotted, and others may need more, depending on summer registration. “Aux Sable Elementary School has five kindergarten positions, but the numbers are low after Kindergarten Round-up, so that school may only need four teachers,� Palaniuk said. “However, Walnut Trails and Minooka Elementary School, who have four kindergarten positions, are seeing higher numbers and may each need an extra teacher.�

So far, only 12 students have opted for the half-day option,

and will be integrated into the regular classrooms.

Palaniuk sees these half-day students potentially moving to full day after school starts. “What I am seeing when speaking with the parents who want their child to be in halfday kindergarten, it’s the parent having the issue, not that the child can’t handle a full day.� Palaniuk said.

Palaniuk added that parents have asked if they can switch their child to a full day after the school year has begun. Parents have until the end of the first quarter to do so.

Another issue is the increased number of cars and buses at drop off and pick up, since all kindergarten students now will be dropped off in the morning and picked up in the afternoon.

Previously, only half of the kindergarten students were dropped off in the morning and afternoon. “This is a problem, especially at Minooka Elementary, where we have quite a few car riders. Buses and cars are already down the road, blocking parking and the traffic trying to get through on the streets,�

Satorius said. “Would it be beneficial to see if the Minooka Police Department could be involved? They have traffic control knowledge, and would have ideas on how to run this smoothly,� Board Member Ed Cronin said.

Satorius said both high schools have an officer paid by that district to be security all day and then direct traffic at release times, so he wasn’t sure if having police presence would be an additional cost.

Lockport creates incentive for fire sprinkler, alarm system installation City officials say grant program will stimulate development

By FELIX SARVER fsarver@shawmedia.com LOCKPORT – Lockport city leaders want to help property owners afford a fire sprinkler and alarm system for their buildings.

Under a new grant program, the city of Lockport will reimburse owners of commercially zoned buildings a portion of eligible costs for installing fire sprinklers and alarm systems.

The program is aimed at buildings constructed before April 1, 2003. At that time, city officials mandated fire sprinklers in all new buildings more than 5,000 square feet.

The project was 3rd Ward Alderman Darren Deskin’s pet project. He said he tracked city video gaming revenue about a year ago and saw the city was drawing in more money than he thought.

Between last April and this April, Lockport collected about $138,556 in video gaming revenue, according to the Illinois

“I’m very happy they were able to do that, and the [Lockport] fire district is very happy we’re able to do this.”

Darren Deskin Lockport 3rd Ward alderman Gaming Board.

Deskin said he approached City Administrator Ben Benson and other staff members with the idea of having a grant program for fire sprinklers that would be similar to the facade grant program.

At Wednesday’s City Council meeting, council members unanimously approved the grant program.

“I’m very happy they were able to do that, and the [Lockport] fire district is very happy we’re able to do this,” Deskin said. “This is one way we can help building owners renovate their buildings. The beauty of

it is that it isn’t using property taxes or sales taxes, but video gaming revenue.”

Lockport has allocated $40,000 to the program from the 2015 budget.

Deskin said the program is business friendly and will help the downtown area. The program will be a selling point for local business owners, some of whom have already said it was a good thing, he said.

According to the program agreement instructions, the city will assist with the installation costs of fire sprinklers and fire alarm systems up to 50 percent of the approved contract cost.

The maximum reimbursement amount for fire alarm systems is $5,000. For a fire sprinkler system, it is $15,000. For both, it is $20,000.

Fourth Ward Alderman Robert Perretta said he supported the program because it addresses safety concerns and economic development.

“This will stimulate economic development,” he said.

The 2015 Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk has been named “Four Wheeler of the Year” by the editors of Four Wheeler, a leading off-road enthusiasts’ magazine.

It was the 13th such award for Cherokee, an icon in the Jeep lineup that now is a leader in the mid-size SUV segment.

After a grueling test over more than 1,000 miles of pavement, gravel, dirt, sand, rocks and snow, the magazine cited Trailhawk’s cutting-edge technology, fresh styling, and luxurious interior amenities while still maintaining true off-road capability.

“Winning the prestigious ‘Four Wheeler of the Year’ award reinforces the fact that the Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk is unquestionably the most capable mid-size SUV on the planet,” said Mike Manley, President and CEO – Jeep Brand.

The 2015 Cherokee delivers legendary Jeep 4x4 capability, a segment-exclusive 9-speed automatic transmission, fuel ratings of up to 31 miles per gallon (mpg) highway, superior on-road ride and handling, world-class craftsmanship, class-exclusive technology and more than 70 advanced safety and security features.

Cherokee is available in three other models -- Sport, Latitude and Limited – and none of the “Trail-Rated” Trailhawk’s siblings are slouches, on or off road. Each model builds on the base Sport, offering additional features, amenities and options so the buyer gets their

OAK BROOK – In a May 20 story about a protest outside of McDonald’s corporate headquarters near Chicago, The Associated Press erroneously reported that about 100 protesters were arrested. Nobody was arrested at Wednesday’s demonstration, but more than 100 people were arrested at a protest there last year.

A corrected version of the story is below: OAK BROOK – Hundreds of protesters marched near McDonald’s suburban Chicago headquarters Wednesday, shutting down at least one building on the corporate campus as they called for pay of $15 an hour.

McDonald’s closed a nearby restaurant because of traffic concerns, and told employees in a building targeted by protesters they should work from home, company spokeswoman Heidi Barker Sa Shekhem said.

The start of the two-day demonstration comes ahead of the company’s annual shareholder meeting on Thursday.

Last year, McDonald’s also closed a building because of a protest, and more than 100

Protesters calling for pay of $15 an hour and a union march near McDonald’s headquarters Wednesday in Oak Brook. The start of the twoday demonstration came ahead of the company’s annual shareholder meeting on Thursday. people were later arrested after refusing to leave corporate property.

The campaign for $15 an hour and a union began in late 2012 and has involved a range of tactics, including demonstrations in cities around the country.

Authorities estimated up to 2,000 people took part in Wednesday’s demonstration, some carrying signs declaring, “We are worth more.”

Dozens of buses were used to transport people to demonstration, with some coming

from as far away as New York.

The Rev. William Barber of Goldsboro, North Carolina, said the campaign extends beyond pushing for a living wage. He called it a fight for racial equality, noting people of color are disproportionally working in low wage jobs.

Corey Anderson, 21, who works at a Chicago McDonald’s, said he makes $8.25 an hour after working for the fast-food chain for more than two years. That’s not enough to live on after rent and utilities are paid, he said.

“There’s always hazards in groundwater. The collected

Del Rosario said the cost of the cleanup is expected to fall on North Shore Gas as the responsible party. It’s a process that would involve not only sitting down with the company to negotiate a settlement but also striking a consent decree through the court system.

An email seeking comment was left with the company on Thursday afternoon.

“I feel like they don’t understand what it’s like to make what we make,” he said.

Sa Shekhem said the company respects the right to protest.

“When it comes it comes to the minimum wage, that is a national discussion, that is not a McDonald’s issue, it’s an economic issue,” she said. “We’ll look to the folks in Washington to determine what happens.”

Earlier this year, McDonald’s said it would raise its starting pay for workers to $1 above the local minimum wage. Labor organizers said the move falls short because it only applies to company-owned stores.

McDonald’s Corp. owns about 10 percent of its stores in the U.S., while the rest are run by franchisees.

The protests come as McDonald’s fights to hold onto customers amid intensifying competition from smaller rivals and changing tastes.

CEO Steve Easterbrook, who stepped into the role in March, has said he wants to transform McDonald’s into a “modern, progressive burger company.”

Thursday will mark his first shareholder meeting as CEO.

4 people killed in traffic accident near Galena GALENA – The Jo Davies County Sheriff’s Department said four people were killed

and another injured when two vehicles collided on Route 20 near Galena.

Authorities said 68-year-old Raymond Anger of Hanover was heading south on Route 20 when his pickup truck veered into the northbound lanes and slammed into a van driven by 61-year-old Walter Mercer. Both men were killed as were passengers in Mercer’s van, 83-year-old Robert Fosdick and 85-year-old Patricia Fosdick of Savanna.

A fourth passenger in the van, 63-year-old Rhonda Mercer, was taken to a nearby hospital for treatment of her injuries.

Officials said the two couples in the van all were related.

Fired Rutherford employees seek back pay, threaten lawsuit

SPRINGFIELD – Three exstate employees who claim former Treasurer Dan Rutherford fired them 10 months ago in retaliation for providing damaging evidence in a sexual harassment investigation are threatening legal action unless the state gives them back pay and scrubs personnel records of the misconduct charges used to show them the door, according to documents obtained by The Associated Press.

Current Treasurer Michael Frerichs refused the demands of Patrick Carlson, George Daglas and Ashvin Lad, whom Rutherford’s office dismissed July 2 for misconduct.

Frerichs’ reasoning was outlined in response to a settlement offer made by the ex-employees’ attorney, James Vanzant, in correspondence between the two this spring and disclosed to the AP under a Freedom of Information Act request. But Frerichs indicated his willingness to settle the matter “fairly and expeditiously” by offering not to disclose to potential employees that the three were fired.

Audit: Judicial Inquiry Board has more cases, fewer staff

SPRINGFIELD – The Illinois agency reviewing complaints against judges has a growing backlog of cases.

Auditor General William Holland said Thursday the Judicial Inquiry Board has fewer staff members than in the past yet the number of complaints is growing.

Democrats in a standoff with Republican Gov. Bruce Rauner said Thursday they’re working to pass a new state budget independently of the GOP. Senate President John Cullerton said the budget is still taking shape and it’s unclear when Democrats will present it. He said Rauner left them no choice because he presented a budget that wasn’t balanced, a move that comes on the heels of the Democrats’ passage of their own unbalanced plan last year.

State unemployment holds steady in April at 6 percent

CHICAGO – Illinois’ unemployment rate remained at 6 percent in April, as the state’s slow economic recovery continued to trail those of neighboring states and more than half the country.

Illinois Department of Employment Security Director Jeff Mays said at the current pace, Illinois job numbers won’t

return to their pre-recession levels until July 2016.

The national unemployment rate was 5.4 percent in April.

Illinois’ rate for the same month a year earlier was 7.4 percent.

The biggest job gains for April were in the professional and business services sector, which added 8,200 jobs. Other sectors that saw increases included educational and health services.

The largest declines were in financial activities, which lost 2,400 jobs; and manufacturing, which lost 1,200 positions. The construction sector lost 800 jobs.

Teen charged in crash that killed student after prom

CALUMET CITY – An 18-yearold has been charged with DUI causing death and reckless homicide with a motor vehi-

cle in a crash that killed two people, including a Calumet City student who attended prom hours earlier.

The Chicago Tribune said David Peden of Calumet City was released on $40,000 bail Tuesday.

Police said the car Peden was driving crossed the center line early Sunday in Calumet City and slammed into a pickup driven by Juan Rivera, 56, a longtime Metra employee. Authorities said Rivera was killed, as was a passenger in Peden’s car, 18-year-old Aaron Dunigan.

Dunigan’s mother, Kaye Jackson, told WLS-TV the two and a third teen were leaving an after-prom party.

Dunigan was set to graduate from Thornton Fractional North High School this week and was the football team’s quarterback.

NATION BRIEFS Compromise on domestic ington mansion last week. surveillance changes eyed D.C. Police Chief Cathy Lanier WASHINGTON – The chairman of the Senate intelligence committee floated a compromise Thursday that would end bulk collection of phone records by the National Security Agency after a two-year transition period, leaving it up to the House to accept the deal or allow expiration of government surveillance powers June 1.

The proposal by Richard Burr, a North Carolina Republican, came as the White House and House leaders from both parties urged the Senate to take up a House-passed bill that would end NSA bulk collection after six months while preserving other surveillance powers set to expire.

With the Senate expected to vote as soon as Friday, Burr predicted the House bill would fail to break the 60-vote threshold needed to end debate.

As a compromise, he predicted, the leadership would propose the Senate vote Friday to extend current law between five days and a month, leaving it up to the House to take or leave the Senate proposal when House members return June 1.

said “just about every law enforcement officer across the country” is on the lookout for Daron Dylon Wint, 34, a native of Guyana and former Marine now wanted on charges of first-degree murder in the killings of his former employer, Savvas Savopoulos.

Investigators were questioning Wint’s girlfriend in Brooklyn, but his whereabouts remained unclear.

Another housekeeper told the AP she believes the family and their housekeeper were held captive for nearly a day before they were killed.

Environmentalists seize on latest Santa Barbara oil spill

By BRIAN MELLEY and CHRISTOPHER WEBER The Associated Press GOLETA, Calif. – The latest oil spill on the Santa Barbara coast is just a drop in the bucket compared with the area’s catastrophic blowout in 1969, but it has become a new rallying point for environmentalists in their battle against drilling and fossil fuels.

No one expects damage on the order of the ‘69 disaster, which helped give rise to the modern environmental movement and led to passage of some of the nation’s most important environmental laws.

Nevertheless, the new spill from a ruptured underground pipe is being held up as another reason to oppose such things as fracking, the Keystone XL pipeline that would run from Canada to Texas, the moving of crude by train, and drilling in farflung places.

“What we see from this event is that the industry still poses enormous risks

to an area we cannot afford to lose,” said Joel Reynolds of the Natural Resources Defense Council.

The timing of the leak – days after a federal agency approved Shell’s plan for drilling in the Arctic, and while the Obama administration considers opening the Atlantic to exploration – could work to the advantage of environmental groups.

Closer to home, it could galvanize opposition to plans for new drilling in the Santa Barbara Channel, where Union Oil’s oil platform blew out 46 years ago, spewing an estimated 3 million gallons of crude along 30 miles of coast. Some 9,000 birds died.

Tuesday’s spill involved an estimated 105,000 gallons of crude; about 21,000 is believed to have made it to the sea and split into slicks that stretched 9 miles along the same stretch of coast fouled in 1969. A 23-mile by 7-mile area was closed to fishing.

As of Thursday, more than 8,300 gallons had been raked, skimmed and vacu-

umed up, officials said.

The thick, powerful-smelling crude coated rocks and sand, but only five oil-coated pelicans and one juvenile sea lion had been rescued.

There was no estimate on the cost of the cleanup or how long it might take.

The 24-inch pipe, built in 1987, had no previous problems and was inspected thoroughly in 2012, according to its operator, Plains All American Pipeline. The pipe underwent similar tests about two weeks ago, although the results had not been analyzed yet.

The 1969 spill was a watershed event in the area and also for the nation.

Artist Bud Bottoms remembers yelling, “We’ve got to get oil out!” thus coining what became a rallying cry and the name of the organization he founded, Get Oil Out!, or GOO. “We made so much noise about the oil spill in our pristine Santa Barbara coast that it was called the ‘environmental shot heard ‘round the world,’ ” Bottoms said.

CLASS 3A PLAINFIELD NORTH BOYS TRACK AND FIELD SECTIONAL

Montgomery dominates with 3 wins in sprints

By CURT HERRON cherron@shawmedia.com PLAINFIELD – Kahmari Montgomery is determined to make history at next weekend’s IHSA Class 3A track and field finals.

After capturing championships in the 400-meter run and the 200 a year ago at Charleston, the Plainfield Central sprinter hopes to add a title in the 100 on Saturday.

Competing Thursday in the Plainfield North Sectional that was moved to his home track at Central, Montgomery stated his case impressively.

Not only did the Wildcat senior win titles in all three events, he dominated against quality competition. Perhaps most impressive was his effort in the 400, where he finished ahead of two of the state’s best by 1.4 seconds.

Montgomery repeated as a sectional champion in both the 200 and 400 and will be making his third state trip in the 200.

He won the 100 in 10.62 seconds, turned in an amazing 46.87 in the 400 and then wrapped things up with a 21.2 in the 200.

“I was nervous coming in (to the 400), but I competed to the best of my ability and did what I had to do,” Montgomery said.

“Winning those three has never been done, so why not try something new? It’s going to be tough, but God won’t let me do anything that I can’t handle.”

Minooka junior Justin Wolz won titles in both the 110 and 300 hurdles. He will be making his first trip to the state finals.

Wolz won the 110 hurdles in 14.53 and then took top honors in the 300 hurdles in 39.03.

Plainfield North senior David Latimore saved his best jump for last to capture the title in long jump. His 22-foot, 6-inch effort clinched his initial visit to Charleston.

Plainfield East and Plainfield North traded the top two spots in the sprint relays. The Tigers switched things up and went with Thomas Harris as the anchor for the first time to win the 4x100 relay (42.07). He was joined by DeVaughn Hrobowski, Zach Shelton and Alex Ruscitti in the first three spots. North went with Harris, Shelton, Ruscitti and Hrobowski in its sec-

Minooka’s Justin Wolz came in first place in the 110-meter hurdles at Thursday’s Class 3A Plainfield North Sectional, held at Plainfield Central.

Minooka’s Soren Knudsen finished seventh in the 3,200-meter run overall but qualified with his time. ors in the 4x200 relay (1:26.78) ond-place 4x200 relay (1:27.07).

The Bengals took top hon- behind Christian Glass, Prince

Smith, Jarvis Carter and Kenyon Newbern-Marks. That same lineup claimed second in the 4x100 relay (42.22). Glass, who earned a medal with a fourthplace 4x400 relay in 2013, also advanced with a second-place finish in the 100 (10.81).

Plainfield South’s John Partee and Kenny Peters advanced in one individual event and one relay. After kicking off the finals with a second-place effort in the 4x800 relay (7:55.83), Partee took second in the 800 (1:54.9) while Peters placed third in that same event (1:56.1) and earned a spot, as did East’s Sergio Llanes, who finished fourth (1:57.12). Both Peters and Llanes qualified in the 800 a year ago.

Minooka’s Peter Andreano won high jump (6-7) and also took third in long jump (22-4).

He’ll be making his fourth state trip in high jump and his second in long jump.

East’s Juwan Wells won triple jump (45-7.5) while South’s Nick Markese claimed top hon-

ors in pole vault (14-3).

Other field qualifiers were Central’s Mike Lyons (second, high jump, 6-3) and Akwasi Aikins (second, triple jump, 44-11.5); East’s Daniel Jackson (second, discus, 163-1); and Minooka’s Kevin Lam (second, shot put, 53-11) and Ryan Pullara (fourth, pole vault, 13-9).

Minooka’s Soren Knudsen finished seventh in the 3,200 (9:25.1) but qualified on time.

The Indians also took third place in the 4x100 relay (42.29) with Colin Marchio, Maceo Findlay, Mitch Miller and Victor Turpin and also third in the 4x200 relay (1:28.94) with Brandon Adams replacing Marchio in the same lineup as in the first relay. Miller was on those two sixth-place relays last year while Turpin joined him in the 4x200 a year ago.

In the final event of the night, the 4x400 relay, Minooka placed second (3:19.76) while East took third (3:19.97) and qualified on time.

Joliet Junior College’s Trevor Maly delivers a pitch during the ninth inning of a game May 9 against Harper College in Joliet. Maly, who has become a dependable reliever for the Wolves, is 5-3 with five saves and a 2.28 ERA.

VIEWS Dick Goss the Region IV championship game, in which he pitched JJC past Illinois Valley and into the World Series.

“Luckily, I came here and have gotten a chance,” Jeffries said this week before the Wolves boarded the bus and headed for North Carolina. “I feel good knowing that I will be starting our first game.”

“Thomas just got lost in the shuffle a little at Providence,” said JJC coach Wayne King, whose teams have won three national championships in their previous 11 trips to the World Series. “He came here and got his confidence. I can remember him having one bad outing early, and that’s it.”

Sophomore Thomas Goodyear (Romeoville), JJC’s only regular pitcher who is not a freshman, is 3-3 with a 3.04 ERA. He pencils in as the Game 2 starter and will be followed by Nick Lindemann (Lockport), who is 6-4 with a 5.08 ERA. Regardless of who starts, the Wolves know they have their rubber arm, Trevor Maly (Minooka), available to relieve in key situations, usu-

ally in the late innings. In the sectional and Region IV tournaments, he won two games and saved two. He is 5-3 with five saves and a 2.28 ERA. “If we had a regional MVP, Trevor should be it,” King said. “If we need him, we will go to him. He has really come on the last three weeks. We feel now that if we throw him out there, it’s under control. Early in the year when we went to him, it wasn’t there yet.”

Maly deflects any attention that comes his way.

“I may be relied on, but it’s mostly about the team and them backing me up offensively and defensively,” he said. “I haven’t been in any real bad

situations lately because the team has come through.”

Catcher TJ Condon (Minooka) – the Wolves’ offensive leader with a .411 average, 41 extra-base hits and a nation-leading 70 RBIs – has had the bird’s-eye view of the improvement of the JJC staff.

“One thing that has helped our pitchers is their walks are down compared to earlier in the season,” Condon said. “We still have to get them down some more so that they stay zoned in. But they have been doing a good job hitting their spots most of the time.”

“I’ve been hitting my spots and getting more movement on my curve and cutter,” Maly

said. “I started throwing the cutter in midseason, and it has gone over well. It’s my goto pitch now.”

As eager as Jeffries is to start the World Series opener, Maly has the same feeling about appearing in any game where he is needed.

“This is a dream come true,” he said. “I can’t wait to get there.”

How successful JJC will be is anyone’s guess. What is certain is the pitching staff, which has come so far, will be a major factor in making that determination.

Montgomery (32-19) will face the Wolves at noon Saturday in an opening-round game. Nassau (18-11) and Rowan Gloucester (37-10) kick off the tournament at 9 a.m. Tyler (37-8) and Northern Essex (28-2) will tangle at 3 p.m., and Herkimer (45-4) and Century (38-7) meet at 6.

The double-elimination tournament continues through Wednesday or Thursday, depending on whether the team with one loss wins or loses the first championship game.

As JJC associate head coach Gregg Braun noted, “The field is loaded.”

Yet Braun, who handles the Wolves’ pitchers and catchers, also knows what wins in baseball. If you pitch well and catch the ball, you have a shot.

JJC will start Thomas Jeffries (9-2, 3.22 ERA) on Saturday. The freshman from Providence is quite a story in his own right. After not pitching much during his career with the Celtics, he leads the nation in victories. He is coming off

CLASS 3A HOMEWOOD-FLOSSMOOR BOYS TRACK SECTIONAL

SLAMMERS VS. CRUSHERS

Seven area individuals, one relay Crushers rally to take lead team qualify at the H-F Sectional vs. Slammers

By JEFF DeGRAW

Shaw Media Correspondent FLOSSMOOR – The Class 3A Homewood-Flossmoor Sectional on Thursday qualified seven area individuals and one relay for next week’s boys state track finals.

Joliet Central had a win from Raul Rosendo in the 3,200-meter run (9:33.21), and Jesse Brady qualified with a second in the 800 (1:59.04).

“I’m really excited about being a sectional champion. I’ve trained very hard for this ever since wrestling was over,” said Rosendo, a junior making his first state track trip, having qualified twice in cross country.

Brady, a senior seeded seventh, ran a three-second personal best to qualify.

“I had to run a smart race and get out from the start,” he said. “I did that for my mom so she can see me

run at state.”

Providence had two individual qualifiers, with the Celtics’ Andy Jatis winning the pole vault with a personal best jump of 16 feet, 6 inches, and Tyler Schiemann placing second in the discus at 154-8.

“The weather finally cooperated,” the Iowa-bound Jatis said. “We had a nice tail wind, and it really helps the run up to get in position. I reached my goal height for the season, so now it’s time for a new one. Next week, I just need to focus on myself and finish the job.”

“I’ve been training hard for this.

At state, I just need to hit something big,” said Schiemann, a junior who will be making his second trip to state in the discus. “I was disappointed with the shot put, but I’m going back in the discus.”

For Lincoln-Way East senior Anthony Colangelo won the high jump with a leap of 6-5.

“It’s always nice to win, and I was a little nervous today,” Colangelo said. “This is my second trip to state, and I would like some redemption, since I didn’t make finals last year.”

Lincoln-Way Central had second-place state qualifiers Shaun Palgen in the pole vault (13-9), Tommy Kolacki in the 1,600-meter (4:23.39), and the 4x800 relay of Patrick Gabriel, Phil Rinaldi, Ian Peterson and Ben Alvarado (7:58.61). Kolacki, a senior, will be making his third state appearance in the mile.

“All the pressure is off now,” said Alvarado, the only senior on the relay. “We wanted to get back to state, and we’ve been waiting for this moment all season.”

Thornton won the meet with 83 points. Lincoln-Way Central was sixth (41), Providence seventh (32), Joliet Central ninth (28) and Lincoln-Way East 10th (27).

JOLIET -– The Joliet Slammers, bidding for their second straight victory, trailed Lake Erie, 7-6, entering the bottom of the eighth inning on Thursday night as the teams combined to hit five homers in the first six innings at Silver Cross Field.

The Slammers, who came in with a 1-4 record, took a 1-0 lead in the bottom of the first inning when Nate Roberts hit Jo- More online liet’s first home run of the home season For coverage of over the right-field the complete fence.

The lead did game and final not last, however, as the Crushers’ score, visit TheHeTy Nelson belted rald-News.com. a two-run homer over the right-field fence for a 2-1 lead in the top of the second inning.

Joliet went back ahead, 4-2, in the bottom of the third inning. Charlie White singled and stole second. Nate Roberts drove him in with a single to right field, and first baseman Chris Serritella followed with a two-run homer to right. It was his third of the season as he homered twice in one game in the season-opening series at Florence.

The Slammers extended their lead to 5-2 in the bottom of the fourth when Russell Moldenhauer homered to right.

Joliet picked up another run for a 6-2 lead in the bottom of the fifth inning thanks to some wildness on the part of Lake Erie starter Brad Zambron and reliever Brad Duffy. White hit a one-out single to center. With Roberts at the plate, Zambron threw a wild pitch. White tried to get to third base on the play but was thrown out by Crushers catcher Nelson.

Roberts reached second base on a dropped fly ball by the right fielder, and he reached third on a wild pitch by Zambron. After Zambron walked Serritella, he was relieved by Duffy, and Duffy’s wild pitch scored Roberts.

The Crushers’ Justin Cureton homered to left field in the top of the sixth inning to cut the Slammers’ lead to 6-3.

Lake Erie scored in the top of the seventh inning when Joliet reliever Andrew Strenge, who threw five scoreless innings in relief in Tuesday’s home opener, threw a wild pitch that scored Trevor Stevens from third. He then hit Frank Desico with a pitch with the bases loaded to cut the lead to 6-5. Two more runs gave the Crushers their 7-6 edge at press time.

BASEBALL: JOLIET WEST 3, JOLIET CENTRAL 0

By DICK GOSS dgoss@shawmedia.com

hit and Robert Talarico’s second hit preceded the balk in the fourth inning that allowed Tomac to drive in the run that made it 2-0. Tucker was hit by a pitch, Pesavento sacrificed and Eastin May singled to set up Poch’s second RBI in the sixth against Central reliever Jose Juan Martinez.

“It was good execution on their part,” Central coach Kevin Fitzgerald said. “They created their runs.

“For our part, we did not execute offensively, and defensively, we have to handle bunt situations better than we did.”

Talarico, in his last tuneup before facing Minooka on Thursday in the Class 4A Joliet West Regional semifinal, was dominant, striking out 13. He recorded three strikeouts in the second and fourth innings, two in third and seventh, and one in each of the other three. He walked three,

hit one and allowed five hits.

“I was here coaching for a year when we had Talarico,” Fitzgerald said. “He’s a good baseball player. He competes.

“What he was doing was throwing first-pitch fastball for strikes and we were watching it. He may be deceptive with his delivery, but that’s not our philosophy. We want to be aggressive and hit firstpitch fastballs. We have to do a better job attacking the first pitch, and we did not execute the bunt when we needed to.”

The Steelmen made it interesting, however, as they loaded the bases with two outs in the seventh inning on singles by Kiryn Smith-Coleman and Bryan Smith around a West error. But Talarico retired Christian Smith, the No. 3 batter in the lineup, on a one-hop comebacker to end it, bringing Central’s total to nine base-runnners stranded.

“Robert did not have his

best stuff,” Karczewski said.

“He just battled.”

“I didn’t have my best stuff, but our defense helped me out, and we got the job done,” Talarico said. “The breaking ball was working pretty well, though.

“That last inning was a good challenge. I knew he [Luke DeBenedetti] wasn’t too many hitters away.”

DeBenedetti had two of the Steelmen’s five hits and a walk in three plate appearances. A couple days earlier, he went 3 for 3 against Tigers’ pitching.

“I didn’t want to see him get up there in the seventh,” Talarico said. “He’s been poking the ball everywhere.”

“We didn’t get that one guy [DeBenedetti] out in two games,” Karczewski said.

“He’s a tough out. They’re a pesky bunch. You let them hang around, and they can beat you.”

CLASS 2A COAL CITY BASEBALL REGIONAL SEMIFINAL: COAL CITY 1, REED-CUSTER 0

Coal City’s Littleton outduels Reed-Custer’s Headrick

By ROB OESTERLE roesterle@shawmedia.com COAL CITY – Anyone who thinks a 1-0 baseball game is boring wasn’t at Coal City on Thursday.

With runs – and base-runners in general – at a premium with ace pitchers Brad Littleton of Coal City and Brent Headrick of ReedCuster on the mound, any scoring threat carried lots of significance. In the end, Coal City was able to push a run across, and that was enough for Littleton and the Coaler defense as Coal City (29-5) beat the Comets (23-12) in the Class 2A Coal City Regional semifinal.

Littleton himself scored the game’s only run. He led off the bottom of the fourth with a walk, stole second and went to third on a passed ball.

At the plate was Joe Quinn, who had struck out the previous at bat, one of 11 strikeouts recorded by the left-handed Headrick. Quinn got a 2-1 fast-

ball from Headrick and poked it into the gap in left-center for a double, scoring Littleton.

“In my first at-bat, I had my hands up too much,” Quinn said. “The second one, there was a runner on third and no outs. I got a fastball, and I was just trying to get it in the air deep enough to score the run.

“Once we got a run, with Brad on the mound, we felt pretty good.”

The Coalers, who play for the regional title at 11 a.m. Saturday against the winner of Friday’s Bishop McNamara-Herscher game, nearly broke it open after Quinn’s double. Nick Micetich singled to center to put runners on first and third, and Jared Skubic walked to load the bases with no outs, and it looked to be a big inning for Coal City.

Headrick had other ideas.

He induced a popout to shortstop, then struck out the next two batters to escape the jam with no further damage.

“That shows what kind of competitor Brent is,” ReedCuster coach Jerry Cougill said. “You see what a kid is made of in those situations, and that was just as impressive as what Littleton did.”

Littleton pitched a four-hitter with 10 strikeouts, increasing his scoreless inning streak to 40. He used his three-pitch arsenal of a fastball that was clocked at 88 mph at its best and 86 in the final inning, a curveball and a change-up to near perfection.

“We knew it would be a 1-0 or 2-1 game,” Littleton said.

“Brent is a good pitcher. We were just hoping to get some guys on base and get them in.

My fastball was there most of the game, and my curve worked well. It was my out pitch a lot of times today.

Usually, my change is my out pitch, but my curve was today.”

Reed-Custer had a threat in the second, when Jordan Walden doubled to right with one out and went to third on

a passed ball. The Comets attempted a suicide squeeze, but the batter missed the bunt, and Walden was tagged out in a rundown between third and home.

In the fifth, Eddie Wilkins led off with a single, and Walden followed with a walk.

A bunt went right back to Littleton on the mound, and he threw to third to force pinch-runner Tyler Richey. A grounder to second moved the runners to second and third, but Littleton got out of the inning with a strikeout.

In the top of the seventh, Travis Schoonover led off with a single and, an out later, attempted to steal second.

He beat the throw but overslid the bag, and Coal City shortstop Micetich tagged him out. Walden then singled to center before Littleton ended the game with a strikeout.

Coal City had runners on second and third with one out in the bottom of the sixth but couldn’t add any insurance runs as Headrick, who

reached 87 on the gun, struck out the next two batters.

“We were a little frustrated that we didn’t score more, but Headrick is a good pitcher,” Coal City coach Jerry McDowell said. “He’s a lefty, he’s 6-4, and he has a great changeup that makes his fastball look that much better.

“We did the little things well. We covered the bunt and got the lead runner, we got the guy in a rundown. And Nick Micetich, we preach to keep the tag on the guy. He did that, and when he slid off the bag, he was out. And Joe Quinn misplayed a fly ball, but he came through later with the big hit in the gap for us.

“How many regionals are there where both teams have to use their aces in the semifinals? This one is stacked with four quality teams in the semis. We’ll probably see more offense in the title game, because I would imagine both teams tomorrow will have to use their aces, too.”

JOLIET – Sophomore infielder Austin Poch was promoted to the Joliet West varsity baseball team during the season.

“He’s a state wrestler, and he wasn’t ready [for the varsity] right away,” Tigers coach John Karczewski said.

“But we had position issues and some injuries, and he was doing real well on the sophomore level, especially defensively, so we brought him up.”

Poch executed two safety squeeze bunts Thursday afternoon as West got even with crosstown rival Joliet Central, 3-0, in the final SouthWest Suburban Blue game of the spring for both teams.

The Steelmen (9-21, 4-10) had beaten the Tigers (18-11, 8-6) earlier in the week, 2-1.

This one took on a similar feel, with West left-hander

Robert Talarico dueling Central right-hander Tyler Lawson. Poch bunted home runs with one out in the second and sixth innings, and a balk led to Blake Tomac’s RBI groundout in the third for the only scoring.

“Austin did a perfect job getting those two bunts down,” Karczewski said.

“He’s actually been struggling a little with his bunting, but the last couple games, he’s done a better job.”

“I’m usually a pretty good bunter,” Poch said. “It’s a matter of situational hitting and situational bunting. You have to play smart baseball.”

After Diontae Tucker walked in the second inning, Josh Pesavento bunted for a hit, and when the throw to first was off target, the runners advanced to second and third to set up Poch’s first squeeze and a 1-0 Tigers lead.

Ducks beat Blackhawks to take Game 3

By JAY COHEN The Associated Press CHICAGO – Frederik Andersen made 27 saves, helping Anaheim kill off five power plays, and the Ducks beat the Blackhawks, 2-1, on Thursday night for a 2-1 lead in the Western Conference final.

Defenseman Simon Despres scored his first career playoff goal in the second period as top-seeded Anaheim bounced back quite nicely from a triple-overtime loss at home in Game 2. Patrick Maroon had a power-play goal and Ryan Getzlaf added two assists.

Ryan Kesler’s two holding penalties contributed to more than nine power-play minutes for the Hawks, but the Ducks’ penalty killers kept most of the Hawks’ opportunities to the outside and Andersen stood his ground during a couple of goalmouth scrums.

Game 4 is Saturday night at the United Center.

The teams were tied at 1 before Despres drove a pass from Getzlaf past Crawford from the right wing with 55 seconds left in the second.

Despres came over in a trade with Pittsburgh in March.

The Hawks outshot the Ducks 11-5 in the third, but couldn’t get the tying goal as Andersen continued his great run in the playoffs. The 25-year-old Andersen has allowed just 23 goals in 12 games.

Two days after the Hawks’ grueling 3-2 victory in Anaheim, thy shuffled their lineup while the Ducks went with the same group for Game 3.

Forwards Kris Versteeg and Joakim Nordstrom were active, replacing Antoine Vermette and Teuvo Teravainen in a bit of surprise.

The move added two fresh players to the Hawks lineup, but Vermette is a strong performer in the faceoff circle, and Teravainen is one of the team’s most promising young players. Versteeg and Nordstrom were mostly quiet in their first action since the first round against Nashville.

While the Hawks struggled on the power play, the Ducks capitalized on their only chance with the man advantage. With Marian Hossa in the box for holding, Maroon tipped Hampus Lindholm’s long slap shot past Crawford at 12:55 of the first for a 1-0 lead.

Clock is ticking for newbies to learn the Open Meetings Act

One of the positives to come out of the Gov. Rod Blagojevich corruption scandal of 2008-09 is greater attention to openness and transparency in Illinois government.

Reform legislation regarding the Open Meetings Act put greater responsibility on members of public bodies – such as municipal councils, school and county boards, and the like – to learn, understand and adhere to state law when conducting meetings.

Since Jan. 1, 2012, all members of public bodies have been required to go online and take training on the Open Meetings Act through a curriculum developed and administered by the Public Access Counselor’s Office, which is part of the Illinois Attorney General’s Office.

Newly elected members, such as those who won their seats in the April 7 election, have 90 days to complete that training. The clock starts ticking the day they take the oath of office.

Numerous public bodies throughout Will and Grundy counties had new members elected in April.

The training those new members must complete will give them a working knowledge of their responsibilities under the Open Meetings Act. They will learn various legal definitions; requirements for legal public meetings, including advance notices and agendas; how meetings can be properly closed; what can be properly discussed in closed sessions; requirements for minutes and verbatim recordings; how the Open Meetings Act applies to electronic gatherings; enforcement of the act; and the role of the Public Access Counselor.

Members of public bodies need to remember the people have a right to be informed about how public business is conducted. In other words, deliberations and actions are to be conducted openly.

For people unaccustomed to public service, those concepts might be foreign. But to ensure honest, aboveboard government, they are vital.

Members of the public also may take the training. Here is the online address: http://foia.ilattorneygeneral.net/electronic_foia_ training.aspx.

We encourage newly elected officials not to wait until the last minute to take their Open Meetings Act training. They will come away from it better informed and better prepared to fulfill their new public service roles.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Reject Illinois budget that would cut prescription reimbursements

To the Editor: As the first line of health care delivery, particularly in underserved urban and rural areas of Illinois, pharmacists strive every day for the advancement of patient care. Leaders in Springfield are considering a budget that would cut reimbursements for prescriptions for the fourth time in just the past four years. Pharmacies and their patients have done their fair share – we hope local lawmakers reject this proposal.

If further cuts are implemented, pharmacies will have to reconsider their ability to serve Medicaid patients, cut staff and hours, or possibly even close their doors. Any of these alternatives will hurt patients whether Medicaid eligible or not, but most especially

our community’s seniors and low-income children.

These decisions will not be easy, but pharmacies cannot provide services for less than it costs them to deliver those same services.

Pharmacists offer services that are critical to everyone’s health care: prescription medications, counseling, preventive vaccines and health screenings. Further cuts to the Medicaid pharmacy program will be detrimental to community-based pharmacies, pharmacists and, most importantly, the patients they serve.

It’s time to stop treating pharmacies and their patients like second-class citizens.

Former Herald-News reporter pens novel based on Palm Beach murder

By DENISE M. BARAN–UNLAND dunland@shawmedia.com JOLIET – Bob Brink recalled the first time his fiction was critiqued.

Brink, a former reporter for The Herald-News, said he was studying journalism at the University of Iowa when author Kurt Vonnegut taught at the University of Iowa’s Writers’ Workshop. Brink said Vonnegut believed his piece lacked the troubling rise and fall Vonnegut associated with good fiction or good personal journalism.

“I was elated,” Brink said. “I still have that frayed yellow piece of paper that he wrote on.”

Brink’s second novel, “Murder on Palm Beach: The Homicide That Never Died,” shows that, at least for Brink, the most interesting make-believe is fact-based.

Truth to fiction

In 2002, while working as copy chief for the Palm Beach Illustrated, Brink heard the story of Richard G. Kreusler, an oil company president gunned down inside his home.

After talking to a former colleague at The Palm Beach Post, the man wrongfully convicted of the murder and his pro bono lawyer instrumental in the man’s release after he served 15 years of his 25-year sentence, Brink believed the case should be reopened, and he approached his colleague about collaborating on a nonfiction book.

Brink said the colleague declined.

“He said, ‘What do you want to do, get me killed?’ ” Brink said.

So Brink fictionalized the information and wrote his second novel.

As much as Brink would like to see his book bring the man he considers to be the real killer brought to trial, “Murder in Palm Beach: The Homicide That Never Died” is really more about redemption.

“It’s the saga of a man that had plummeted to the depths of his life,” Brink said, “and then was restored.”

Overall, he’s pleased with the fictionalized version of the real murder.

Brink’s first novel, “Breaking Out,” published in 2010, was really Brink’s memoir, which he also wrote as fiction.

Bob Brink, a former reporter for The Herald-News, is the author of “Murder in Palm Beach: The Homicide That Never Died.” The novel is based on a 1976 Palm Beach murder. It is Brink’s second novel.

A retired journalist, Bob Brink now writes and publishes fiction.

“It was deeply personal, and I wanted to disguise it a bit,” Brink said. “Plus, it just makes a more interesting book if you can be creative with it.”

A teacher first

Brink’s did not intend to establish a writing career. His bachelor’s degree is in English and German, from Drake University in Iowa.

After spending a month in Ger-

many, Brink realized teaching was not for him. He began taking master’s-level journalism classes at the University of Iowa.

He arrived at The Herald-News in the late 1960s after responding to a job posting. Brink said the assistant managing editor was Ray Hertel, fresh from The Des Moines Register copy desk. Brink also recalled three reporters: Elmer Ott, Madeline Hildebrand and Lea Kerr.

Brink recalled writing a story about the National Guard being called in to handle the riots after Martin Luther King Jr.’s death. That story, he said, made the front page. A story on fire hazards that Brink said earned him an award came with a price – living in “fleabag hotels” for a week.

“Every morning, I had to go to the police department, go through the reports and then come back and write under deadline,” Brink said. “We were still an afternoon paper then, and those deadlines were rough.”

After The Herald-News, Brink said he worked for The Associated Press, the Milwaukee Journal, Tampa Tribune and the Palm Beach Media Group. Single since 1996 and retired since 2007, Brink is happily working on his third novel.

After discovering the importance of “show, not tell” and learning how to construct a novel, Brink encountered one last hurdle, which he happily overcame.

“It’s very difficult to get published,” Brink said.

PUZZLES SUDOKU

BRIDGE by Phillip Alder

Sit on your hand to slow down

CELEBRITY CIPHER

Sloane Crosley, an essayist, wrote, “I used to think that nails-down-achalkboard was the worst sound in the world. Then I moved on to peopleeating-cereal-on-the-phone. But only this week did I stumble across the rightful winner: it’s the sound of a baggage carousel coming to a grinding halt, having reunited every passenger on your flight with their luggage, except for you.”

No doubt we can all relate to that.

You stand there for ages, hoping against hope not to be disappointed.

At the bridge table, many play their cards as if their suitcase were the first to appear on the carousel. They take no time to consider the possibilities.

In today’s deal, how can the defenders defeat four spades after West leads his diamond ace?

Note South’s advance of his partner’s takeout double. By an unpassed hand, a simple suit bid shows only 0-8 points. With 9-11 points, the advancer must jump in his suit. Yes, South wishes he had a five-card suit, but one has to make the best of the situation.

Here, North has an easy raise to four spades.

The first key play comes at trick one. East must drop his queen under West’s ace. This shows the queen and the jack (or a very unlikely singleton queen). Now West must resist the temptation to play another diamond.

Instead, he should shift to his singleton heart.

South will win the trick and play a trump, but West can take that trick and continue with a low diamond. East wins with his jack, and it should be the work of a moment for him to return a heart, which West ruffs to defeat the contract.

CROSSWORD

ASK DOCTOR K Anthony L. Komaroff lab and animal studies, flavonols have been found to help brain cells “talk” to one another. They also protect brain cells from toxins and inflammation.

The amount of cocoa flavonols in chocolate varies widely from one chocolate to another. As a rule of thumb, dark chocolate has more flavonols than milk chocolate. Even so, the amount of flavonols in about three ounces of dark chocolate can range from 100 to 2,000 mg.

The forms of chocolate that we generally consume – chocolate candies and chocolate pastry – generally are high in both calories and cholesterol-raising saturated fats. So I’m surely not advising you to improve your heart health by eating a box of chocolates (or a big slice of chocolate cake) each day.

The chocolate confection industry is working on new forms of chocolate candies that are richer in flavonols and lower in calories and saturated fat. And there are plenty of low-calorie chocolate recipes on the Internet.

The best way to get cocoa flavonols is through dark cocoa powder mixed with a very little bit of added sugar and low-fat milk. Look for cocoa powder that is as natural as possible. (Avoid so-called “Dutch processed” cocoa powder, as Dutch processing reduces the amount of flavonols.)

For chocoholics like me, the research news on chocolate over the past decade has been good. Still, you’ve got to be careful about how you partake in its benefits.

A S T R O K E O F G E N I U S

Dear Doctor K: Is chocolate really good for the brain?

Dear Reader: It sounds too good to be true, but research has found that certain compounds in chocolate, called cocoa flavonols, may protect brain function.

In one recent study, researchers tested the effects of cocoa flavonols in 90 healthy 61- to 85-year-olds with good memory and thinking skills. Participants drank a special brew containing either a low (48 milligrams, or mg), medium (520 mg) or high (993 mg) amount of cocoa flavonols each day.

After eight weeks, the study participants took tests that measured attention, executive function and memory. People who had consumed medium and high amounts of cocoa flavonols every day made significant improvements on these tests, compared to people who consumed low amounts.

A previous study by these researchers was published in 2012. That study showed that daily consumption of cocoa flavonols was associated with improved thinking skills in older adults with a problem known as mild cognitive impairment.

Flavonols are a type of plant nutrient found in many foods and drinks.

These include tea, red wine, blueberries, apples, pears, cherries and peanuts. They are particularly abundant in cacao beans, which are used to make cocoa powder and chocolate.

Flavonols in cocoa have been studied for many years. They have been shown to help lower blood pressure, improve insulin resistance (a precursor to diabetes), improve blood flow to the brain and heart, prevent blood clots and fight cell damage.

How cocoa flavonols might boost thinking skills has not been directly studied in humans. In

Dear Abby: I just realized I’m six weeks pregnant. I have always wanted to start a family and raise children with my fiance, but I have a big problem. I am an alcoholic and have been struggling with this issue for a few years. I don’t know the effect this could have on my baby, but I know it isn’t good. My fiance also drinks a lot, and our home situation isn’t the greatest for a child because of it.

What can I do that would be helpful in my circumstances? I don’t want to put my baby’s life at risk. I tried AA in the past, but was unsuccessful. I’m afraid I’m destroying my family before it is started. – Trainwreck in

Blondie

Virginia

Pearls Before Swine

The Argyle Sweater

Real Life Adventures

Dear Trainwreck: You are right to be concerned. If you plan to have this baby, it’s important that you find a gynecologist and quit drinking IMMEDIATELY! If you can’t find the strength to do it for yourself, then do it for the sake of your little one.

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention: “There is no safe time to drink alcohol during pregnancy. Alcohol can cause problems for the developing baby throughout pregnancy, including before a woman knows she is pregnant.

Drinking alcohol in the first three months of pregnancy can cause the baby to have abnormal facial features.

Growth and central nervous system problems (e.g., low birth weight, behavioral problems) can occur from drinking alcohol anytime during pregnancy. The baby’s brain is developing throughout pregnancy and can be affected by exposure to alcohol at any time.

“If a woman is drinking alcohol during pregnancy, it is never too late to stop. The sooner a woman stops drinking, the better it will be for both her baby and herself.”

DEAR ABBY Jeanne Phillips Dear Abby: I have been with my girlfriend, “Kendra,” for four years. We’re ready to take our relationship to the next level, but I’m starting to have second thoughts because of her mother. To put it simply, she’s not a nice woman, and she doesn’t have any friends. Her husband died a few years ago, which makes her very much alone. Her only social life is Kendra.

Abby, she thinks of me as a threat to their relationship, and she’s trying everything in her power to break us up.

She says negative things about me to Kendra and she’s rude to me at all times.

She says she will not give us her blessing if we decide to marry.

Because we live only 10 minutes from her and have no possibility of moving farther away, is it possible to have a healthy marriage with such a “cancer” in our lives? Or would our marriage be doomed from the start? Do I stay or do I go? – Unsure in

Pennsylvania

Dear Unsure: Unfortunately, no one can make this decision for you. Much depends upon whether Kendra can recognize how unhealthy her relationship with her mother is and distance herself emotionally. While love can conquer almost everything, unless she can do that, and not allow herself to feel guilty for being happy, marriage to Kendra could be like competing in a marathon with one foot encased in a barrel of cement. I’m not saying don’t do it, but pointing out that if you do, it will be a challenge.

FRIDAY HOROSCOPE TODAY – Put your knowledge, experience and expertise to work in order to fulfill your dream.

If you methodically address each obstacle you face, you will overcome what stands between you and victory. Others will benefit by watching how you handle challenges.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) – Change is in the air. You have critical choices ahead of you, so don’t rush to make a move until you have your plans in place. Look for a position that suits you.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) – Choose your words carefully. Your emotions will surface, and a hasty retort issued in anger will lead to a rift between you and a friend or relative.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) – You should delegate

jobs in order to avoid being burdened with too many responsibilities. Offer guidance and step aside. Trying to oversee everything will result in a lack of recreation time.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) – This is a perfect day for love. Your instincts are right on the money, and your appeal has never been stronger. Your admirers will be ready to help you achieve your goals.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) – Revealing too much will backfire on you. Diplomacy is key. Keep your secrets private, no matter who is asking.

Protect your interests.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) – Spending quality time with loved ones will strengthen your bonds with them. Your creativity and magne-

tism will impress your allies and stymie any competition you encounter along the way.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) – Get involved.

No one will listen to an armchair quarterback.

Once you engage yourself, you will have the knowledge and insight necessary to make or suggest changes.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) – Even though things are running smoothly, everyone has ups and downs. If you are feeling anxious or unsure, take time to remember all of the good things in your life.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) – You probably have too many irons in the fire. Edit your options and focus on those that will bring you the most satisfaction. Running around without

a plan will get you nowhere.

PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) – Romance is heating up. Shower someone special with personal attention and show your devotion. A dinner or trip will help keep you in harmony. If you are single, get out and look for love.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) – You are a kind and caring individual, so don’t let a harmless remark cause you concern. Some people enjoy criticizing others. It gives them a feeling of superiority. Walk away.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) – Don’t get drawn into a quarrel with someone who doesn’t share your beliefs. It’s doubtful that an argument will make a difference to either one of you in the end.

SATURDAY HOROSCOPE TODAY – Look at the big picture. Focusing on small disappointments will lead to pessimism and uncertainty. Be bold and show everyone that you have all the components necessary to make a success of whatever you choose to do. Don’t wait for someone else to inspire you or co-opt your ideas.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) – Monetary gain is apparent. A gift, windfall or old debt that is repaid will help you take care of a financial matter that’s weighing on your mind. Be smart with your cash.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) – Moodiness will alienate the people you care about most. By pursuing a favorite hobby or catching up on your reading, you can rid yourself of the blues and avoid trouble.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) – Financial opportunities are

available. Make yourself knowledgeable regarding investments, or enlist the aid of someone who can provide you with the pertinent information. A business trip will pay off.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) – Be adventurous. Travel will open many new avenues. Comparing notes with people from different cultures or vocational backgrounds will expand your knowledge and broaden your horizons.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) – Minor personal enhancements will improve your self-image and confidence. Confrontations with family members can be avoided if you dedicate yourself to a solitary activity or to taking care of personal paperwork.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) – An intriguing

invitation will result from a social event that you normally would never attend. Say yes if a friend asks you to try something out of the ordinary.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) – Keep your budget in mind before you make an investment commitment. If you allow yourself to get carried away by visions of wealth, you will end up taking on an unnecessary risk.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) – Relationships will keep you busy. Taking part in things will lead to an introduction to someone who has a resounding effect on your future. High-volume activity will relieve depression.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) – An opportunity to form a partnership will develop if you attend a vocational event. Minor mishaps will develop

if you are not paying attention. Be careful while traveling or operating equipment.

PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) – Younger family members or friends will provide novel ideas for entertaining activities. Rediscover previous pleasures by visiting an old friend, neighborhood or hangout. The past will lead to new beginnings.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) – Nothing will hold you back. Your affable nature and sense of fun will be infectious to friends and family alike. A younger acquaintance will see you as a role model.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) – Be open-minded regarding your career. You may be intrigued by an opportunity to change your direction, but careful consideration will be necessary in order to avoid a mistake.
