VIEWS Kate Schott One has to wonder if Mother Nature isn’t a football fan. With so many people pumped Friday for the first night of prep football for the season, who else was frustrated when the weather, particularly the lightning, kept some teams from either taking or staying on the field Friday night? Thankfully, most were able to eventually finish their games. Our sports and web staff spent much of Friday night

using our new sports Twitter at @HeraldNewsSport to tweet out scores and other information about the games – such as the delays and the few cancellations we had due to the weather. We’d love it if you followed us, and join in on the fun in future weeks by using the hashtag #JHNFootball when you’re tweeting about your team. We had recaps of games on the website theherald-news. com by Saturday morning, as well as four photo galleries. And did you check out the video of Sports Editor Dick Goss and reporter Curt Herron discussing Friday night’s results and what they meant?

Turn to page 32 for the start of today’s Sports section; more in-depth stories on football dominate the first part of the section. We have results from games from other teams, including volleyball and the Slammers, as well as NASCAR, Bears and college action from Saturday. As always, I’d love your constructive feedback.

Man told police he was ambushed on Joliet porch

Joliet to conduct next phase of hydrant testing

JOLIET – A man told police a gunman attacked him Friday night while he sat outside. About 9 p.m. the 40-yearold victim was sitting on a rear porch in the 500 block of Douglas Street when a man wearing black clothing walked up, according to Joliet police Capt. Les O’Connor. “The subject held a handgun and fired several shots as the victim ran for cover. He was not injured and the shooter fled the scene,” O’Connor said. O’Connor said police had no suspect information to release as of Saturday.

Nicole Jones, mother of Eric Glover Jr., is seen leaving the Will County Courthouse on Friday after Bethany McKee was found guilty of first degree murder and robbery.

bstanley@shawmedia.com JOLIET – Bethany McKee was led into Courtroom 407 at 10:45 a.m. Friday. She wore blue jail scrubs with a pair of eyeglasses folded in the chest pocket. She sat, unshackled, between her defense attorneys and a Will County Sheriff’s deputy. An audience full of her own family, reporters, courthouse staff and about 25 relatives of Eric Glover Jr. and Terrence Rankins sat mostly in siBethany McKee lence for the next 10 minutes, which was the last time – legally speaking – she could be considered innocent of the two men’s murders. Judge Gerald Kinney arrived to read a six-page decision that found McKee, 20, guilty of murder. The judge found McKee accountable by setting up the robbery that led to the deaths of Glover Jr. and Rankins on Jan. 9, 2013, at Alisa Massaro’s house in the 1100 block of North Hickory Street in Joliet. Authorities allege that Glover Jr. and Rankins, both 22, were strangled to death by Adam Landerman and Joshua Miner who await separate trials. “Ms. McKee played a key role in getting the victims over to the Massaro residence, knowing that the groups’ intent was to commit the offense of robbery,” Kinney said. “She left the

Terrence Rankins, one of the two murder victims, is the son of Jamille and nephew of D’Arcy. room when signaled so that the robbery could begin.” Kinney said McKee showed “a stunning lack of respect for human life and a stunning lack of concern for the consequences of taking two” of them. During the bench trial earlier this month, Kinney saw McKee’s videotaped interview with police where McKee admitted she and the other suspects discussed robbing Rankins before he arrived and she saw Miner attack him when she left the room with her infant daughter. “She clearly indicates in her statement that she knew there was going to be at the very least a fight and a robbery if Rankins came over,” Kinney said.

Kinney also said the evidence showed McKee used proceeds from the robbery to buy gas, cigarettes and cocaine, and took stuffed animals and CDs from Glover Jr.’s car. “She also seemed upset in her interview when she realizes that there was probably more money stolen from these victims than she was told,” Kinney noted. McKee also helped put a plastic bag over Rankins’ head and called her father to help dispose of the bodies. William McKee notified police, who went to the house to find Landerman, Miner and Massaro inside with the victims. Massaro initially was charged with murder and plead-

ed guilty to lesser charges of robbery and concealing a homicide in exchange for testifying against the others. Kinney said Friday that Massaro’s testimony did “little, if anything” to modify the facts McKee admitted to police. After the verdict was announced, Glover Jr.’s mother, Nicole Jones, said her family “did a lot of praying” in the two weeks between the conclusion of the bench trial and the announcement of the verdict. “I’m just taking this in. I’m not worried about [Miner’s trial] next month,” she said. Jones said it was difficult to sit and hear about the grisly details of her son’s death during McKee’s trial.

Terrence Rankins

“It’s been hard to hear about what happened to your son and how it happened. As a mother, how could you hear that?” she said. Massaro testified the victims came over expecting to have sex with her and McKee. During police interviews played in court both women said Miner and Massaro attempted to have sex on a mattress placed on top of the victims’ bodies, though Massaro denied this on the witness stand. Miner also discussed removing the skin from one of the victims’ faces to wear as a mask like a character in a horror movie, according to police interviews. “Two down, two to go,” Duval Rankins, Terrence’s father said Friday after the decision. McKee is scheduled to be sentenced Oct. 16, but she must receive a life term for murdering two people.

By the numbers

The Herald-News / TheHerald-News.com • Sunday, August 31, 2014

Here are some of the facts and figures behind the Interstate 55 construction zone.

8 The number of fatalities that occurred in the construction zone over two seasons, which ran from early June to late November 2013 and from early April to August 2014. There were two fatalities in 2013. This year, five people, including two from the Will-Grundy counties area, died as a result of a chain-reaction crash July 21 involving a semitrailer. A second collision that same day resulted in the death of a sixth man.

This Interstate 55 traffic scene from July was a familiar site during the Des Plaines River bridge construction project over the last two summers.

I-55 bridge construction no headache for holiday drivers By LAUREN LEONE–CROSS lleonecross@shawmedia.com Labor Day weekend traffic can be brutal. But one stretch of area highway is better off than it was around this time last year: Interstate 55 across the Des Plaines River Bridge. The work zone, which opened back up earlier this month ahead of a busy Labor Day weekend, was plagued with major traffic congestion over two construction

seasons. During that time, bridgework reduced traffic to one lane both ways, leading to frequent jams and major delays. Bruce Gould, who serves as director of transportation and head engineer for Will County, couldn’t be happier. “With the holiday weekend, it’s definitely a good thing. It’ll be a tremendous help now that that is open,” Gould said. “Our county roads were getting stressed, as was a lot of the local system.”

Guy Tridgell, spokesman for the Illinois Department of Transportation, said the completed bridgework reduces how often IDOT will have to do inspections, reducing future lane closures. Before the work, Tridgell said, IDOT was doing full bridge inspections every two years and a partial inspection in the other years, he said. Now that repairs are completed, IDOT will only need to do full inspections every other year.

Route 30, Interstate 55 construction awaits concrete panels By VIKAAS SHANKER vshanker@shawmedia.com JOLIET – Motorists can see signs saying construction has started on the Route 30 and Interstate 55 interchange. But the trucks, traffic cones and state workers still haven’t done major work. That’s because the Illinois Department of Transportation is waiting to install pre-cast concrete panels, which will reduce the time the project will take. It also means that road crews will not have to pour

concrete, work that might be going on by now if pre-cast panels were not used. “They’re trying to minimize the down time,” said Randy Jessen, superintendent of public improvements for Plainfield. “To normally pour concrete in place, it takes seven to 10 days to cure for trucks and traffic. But this way it can be a quick turnaround.” The roughly $2.6 million interchange project is adding additional lanes to the exit ramps from I-55 to Route 30. The northbound ramp will have a

second left-turn lane, and the southbound ramp will include a second right-turn lane. The project also will include upgraded traffic signals at the interchange, allowing more efficient monitoring of traffic. The intersection project started the first week of August. But officials have surveyed the area and made precise measurements for the concrete panels, Jessen said. While the construction work shouldn’t affect traffic too much, Jessen said motor-

ists should expect lane closures and reduced speed in the area and on the exit ramps. The estimated completion date is Dec. 1. That could change, depending on the weather.

Community event focused on providing ‘safe havens’

Joliet man charged with drug delivery

By BRIAN STANLEY bstanley@shawmedia.com JOLIET – About six weeks ago, discussion on the “I’m So Joliet” Facebook page turned to the problem of youth violence. When Sherron Graves asked who was willing to step up, Remy Parham proposed anyone interested meet at Nowell Park’s basketball court with a pad and a pen. “And it was just the two of us [for that first meeting],” Graves said. “I did worry for a minute we’d never get anybody else to make this happen.” But about 10 people came the following week and more after that as the ideas grew into the Joliet 815 Children’s Weekend of Talent and Growth, which was at the park Saturday and today. Graves felt providing activities is the best preventive step against children becoming involved in crime. “You can’t save everybody, but when there’s something for them to do, there’s less chance of getting involved in gangs and drugs,” he said. About 40 kids, mostly junior high students, were at the park Saturday morning for the start of the 3-on-3 basketball tournament. 200 hot dogs cooked on a nearby barbecue grill while Delveon Gadson, 11, set up a Monopoly board on the picnic table. Younger kids watched as

Dutch tournament for the girls and a tournament for the moms and the best girl and mom will [compete] against each other at the end,” said Michelle Franklin. Franklin said she volunteered for the event because she believes the community needs more “safe havens” that aren’t too costly. Sherron Graves “My 8-year-old granddaughJoliet resident ter is in ballet and Girl Scouts, but things like that have out of pocket costs that some people three bounce houses were set don’t have. That’s why I think up and inflated and parents this is wonderful,” Franklin were encouraged to join with said. Events scheduled to begin the children in the kickball at 1 p.m. today include a dance tournament. “There’s also a Double contest and talent show.

“And it was just the two of us [for that first meeting],” Graves said. “I did worry for a minute we’d never get anybody else to make this happen.”

JOLIET – A Joliet man was arrested last week after allegedly bringing ecstasy pills to undercover drug officers. Will County Cooperative Police Assistance Team Director Wayne Ladd said Robert T. Haynes, 34, was under investigation for about a month, allegedly selling ecstasy in the area. On Thursday afternoon, Haynes brought 15 MDMA pills, which sell for between $25 and $30 each, to a gas station on Route 53 to meet with CPAT agents, according to Ladd. After Haynes was taken into custody on three counts of delivery of drugs, police received a warrant to search his residence in the 900 block of North Center Street. “No additional drugs were found inside, but there was a handgun where the serial number had been obliterated,” Ladd said. Haynes was also charged with defacing the identifying markings of a firearm and booked into the Will County Jail. – Brain Stanley

The bat represents the sixth confirmed case of wildlife rabies in the county for 2014. On Aug. 27, droppings were found in a bedroom closet at the home and a bat was seen flying around, according to the release. Will County Animal Control was notified when the bat was found the next morning. The bat was rushed for laboratory testing at the Illinois Department of Public Health, and rabies was confirmed Aug. 28. It’s the second bat found in the area this week. On Aug. 25, a bat was found sheltering beneath a microwave in a Joliet kitchen. It also tested positive for rabies. Will County has confirmed six cases of wildlife rabies this summer, according to the release, equal to the total number of bat rabies cases in 2013. Since 2002, 120 Will County bats have been confirmed rabid.

NEWS BRIEF Local woman arrested on charges of inappropriate relationship with a minor JOLIET TOWNSHIP – A 37-year-old woman was arrested Wednesday on charges related to what police allege is an inappropriate relationship with a minor. Will County Sheriff’s Deputy Chief Ken Kaupas said the investigation began last week after a relative of the victim, a 15-yearold boy whom the woman facing charges knows, contacted police. “There was an allegation of inappropriate sexual contact between the teen and an adult,” Kaupas said.

plus over 6,000 local jobs to date. Jacqueline Epting, an acquaintance of the victim, was arrested on a charge of distributing harmful material to a minor after investigators found sexually explicit photographs she had sent to the victim’s cellphone, Kaupas said. Kaupas said Epting, of the 100 block of Carriage Lane, also is expected to face a felony count of predatory criminal sexual assault but that charge had not been filed as of Friday. Epting was released from the Will County Jail on Thursday night after posting $10,000 bond. – Brian Stanley

JOLIET – While his confession can’t be used, prosecutors still plan to try a Crest Hill man who authorities allege killed his elderly neighbor and set her house on fire. The 89-year-old woman was stabbed 20 times, according to police, and was found in the house while it was burning. The Will County State’s Attorney’s office will appeal the decision Judge Robert Livas made last week to suppress the statements Bruce Gempel, Bruce Gempel 50, made in police custody in November 2012, according to spokesman Charles Pelkie. Livas has decided Gempel’s arrest was made without probable cause and nothing changed in the hours before he gave some incriminating statements to make them admissible as evidence. Neither prosecutors nor defense lawyers wanted to comment on the record about the case, but both sides agreed the evidence against Gempel is more circumstantial without his statement. Testing showed the DNA recovered from under the victim’s fingernails could be Gempel’s, but does not identify a single individual. “Since it was ruled the arrest and statements were obtained illegally, there will be a motion to suppress any physical evidence,” Will County Public Defender Assistant Chief Investigator Michelle Palaro said. Palaro said Gempel’s trial

won’t proceed until the appellate court reviews the ruling, which could take more than a year. “So our next step will be a hearing to have Mr. Gempel released from custody on a reasonable bond [during the delay],” Palaro said. Gempel is being held on $1 million bond in the Will County Jail. On Nov. 18, 2012, an off-duty firefighter passed by Dorothy Dumyahn’s house in the 2300 block of Caton Farm and saw smoke. The firefighter forced the door open and brought Dumyahn outside to discover she was already dead. Police said Dumyahn had been stabbed 20 times. Police said Dumyahn’s next-door neighbor Gempel had unexplained scratches on his face and arms when he was first questioned on the night of Dumyahn’s death. He allegedly told detectives it bothered him when she’d hound him for money she’d loaned him. A handwritten ledger evidence technicians found in Dumyahn’s bedroom showed Gempel had previously borrowed $40 and some pillows and blankets from her. Livas believed testimony during the evidence hearing showed Gempel asked about speaking to a lawyer three times and said he wanted to leave twice after taking a lie detector test at the Romeoville police station. Detectives with the Will-Grundy Major Crimes Task Force told Gempel he failed the polygraph exam before he was booked on murder and arson charges. “They had reasonable suspicion, sure, but nothing was presented [to elevate] that to probable cause,” Livas said.

Former Frankfort doctor pleads guilty to sexual offenses By BRIAN STANLEY bstanley@shawmedia.com JOLIET – A Frankfort doctor was sentenced to 18 months of probation Wednesday after pleading guilty to groping women during office visits. After pleading guilty to two counts of unlawful restraint, Kishor Jain, 61, also was sentenced to six months in jail, but Appellate Prosecutor Dave Neal said that will be stricken if Jain completes probation without incident. He was fined $3,500 in court costs. “Because of the nature of his offenses, I did not seek community service in order

“Because of the nature of his offenses, I did not seek community service in order to reduce Jain’s potential contact with members of the public. ... By moving forward on the unlawful restraint charges, we’ve ensured he will no longer prey on women while practicing medicine.” Dave Neal, Appellate prosecutor to reduce Jain’s potential contact with members of the public,” Neal said. Jain was charged in February 2013 with 10 counts of criminal sexual abuse, five counts of battery and one count of criminal sexual assault. He also faces lawsuits filed by five women who said

he fondled them while he was employed at Hedges Clinic. A woman contacted police in August 2011 after Jain grabbed her breasts during an office visit for her child and later filed suit against

the pediatrician. Media coverage led to other victims coming forward. Neal said the plea deal allowed the victims to avoid testifying while ensuring that Jain admitted to criminal acts and was convicted of a felony. As a result, Jain cannot have his medical license reinstated by the Illinois Department of Financial and Professional Regulation. In 2002, Jain was acquitted of a misdemeanor battery charge by a Will County judge. The charge stemmed from

claims by one of Jain ’s former pediatric patients, who told Frankfort police Jain touched her breasts and tried to put his hand down her pants while asking her about sex positions in December 2001 when she brought her infant in for a checkup. At the time, the judge concluded Jain’s actions were part of a legitimate medical exam. “By moving forward on the unlawful restraint charges, we’ve ensured he will no longer prey on women while practicing medicine,” Neal said.

JOLIET – Interior design, advertising and legal work are among the 32 services that would be taxed under gubernatorial candidate Bruce Rauner’s proposal to broaden the state’s sales tax base. Eliminating the state’s sales tax exemption for professional and business services has long been discussed in the Bruce Rauner state Legislature and among economist groups, but the topic returned to the spotlight earlier this summer with Rauner’s release of his own fiscal blueprint plan for the state. His plan also calls for rolling back the temporary income tax from 5 percent to 3 percent and the corporate income tax from 7 percent to 4.8 percent. Imposing a tax on some services, but not all, could generate more than $600 million in revenue, according to Rauner’s plan, which cites the bipartisan Commission on Government Forecasting and Accountability’s 2011 service taxes report. But that compares to the $1.7 billion in lost revenue expected next fiscal year if the income tax rolls back as scheduled, said John Greuling, president and CEO for the Will County Center for Economic Development. “Imposing a service tax, if done right with adjustments in other parts of the tax code, may make sense, but I also think you’re opening up a can of worms,” Greuling said. “I think this is a slippery slope that will encourage the state to look to businesses as a way to fill this budget deficit, whether it’s unpaid bills or future capital projects.”

Rauner notes in the fiscal blueprint that an ideal tax code “has low rates and a broad base.” Medical services, and other professional services like architects, barber shops, accountants and engineers, would remain exempt from the sales tax. But services like travel agencies, graphic design, public relations and telemarketing would not. Services offered through small businesses like Kim Patterson’s Channahon-based Interior Ideas would be taxed under Rauner’s proposal. Patterson, who works out of her home, said she’s concerned the sales tax could make potential customers “think twice” about using her for design services. That would hurt the bottom line for someone like Patterson, whose business is entirely service-based. “I believe in paying my taxes and paying my fair share, but interior design is typically seen as a service people desire, but may not need,” Patterson said. “I’m concerned people might not pursue the service anymore if they knew they had to pay tax on it.” Still, the Illinois Commission on Government Forecasting and Accountability estimates an even broader tax base – barbershops and day care centers included – could generate about $4 billion annually for the state. Taxing attorney services alone would generate about $167 million annually for the state. In his plan, Rauner argues broadening the tax base would make Illinois more competitive. Russ Slinkard, president and CEO for the Joliet Region Chamber of Commerce & Industry, disagreed. “The tax base continues to expand,” Slinkard said. “It’s taking more money from the customer and the business, and we’re seeing very little on the government’s end with improving efficiency, services and so forth.”

Illinois sales tax on service up for debate

Lockport council to consider downtown business restrictions LOCKPORT – City Council members in Lockport are scheduled to vote this week on a proposal that restricts certain businesses from locating in the downtown district. The proposal aims to ensure businesses commonly found in suburban downtown areas, such as in Plainfield, are in that district, rather than those that are not. The intent is to preserve the area’s “historic nature,” Pam Hirth, city community and economic development director, said at an Aug. 20 meeting. “As we talk about revitalizing the downtown area, we want businesses and activity that are going to draw people – a consistent flow of people,” she said. The proposal, which the city council will consider Wednesday, will allow retail and office space, as well as

restaurants, in Lockport’s downtown area. It will not permit thrift stores, contractor shops or loan shops. City officials said those are not typically found in downtown areas. The city would require special use permits for such businesses and seek to move them out of downtown. Second Ward Ald. Kelly Turner said the proposal would make the downtown area more restrictive for businesses and prevent them from locating there. For years, the downtown area was hurt not only by larger economic problems, he said, but restrictions set by the city. “I’m a free enterprise kind of guy and I think we need to attract businesses and not tell them what we don’t want,” he said. Lockport Mayor Steven Streit was supportive of the proposal when it was presented Aug. 20. While city officials do

not mean to set restrictions, he said, the downtown district is a small one. “When it comes to the downtown, we all want to see it turned around … it’s just been a tired, old downtown and there’s things we can do to change that,” he said. Earlier this year, city officials opposed Salvation Army from opening a thrift store, with some who said the store would make it hard for the city to attract other types of retailers. The city has hired The Retail Coach to find ways to attract more stores and restaurants to revitalize Lockport. The ordinance for Wednesday’s vote also includes changes to the city’s zoning regulations, broadening the definition of tobacco shop to include shops that sell electronic smoking devices. The ordinance also seeks a consolidation of second-hand retail store classifications.

By BRIAN STANLEY bstanley@shawmedia.com SHOREWOOD – After serving as Troy Fire Chief for five years, Steve Engledow is set to retire next month. “It’s the end of my contract and it’s time to move on,” Engledow said Friday. “I think I accomplished what I set out to do here and I’m happy with the shape I’m leaving the department in.”

Before taking over in Troy, Engledow served nearly 28 years as a Joliet firefighter. He retired as deputy chief in 2007. Engledow also was assistant chief with the East Steve Joliet Fire DeEngledow partment for a year. He has also worked on the Frankfort and Country Club

Hills fire departments. His last day with Troy is Sept. 30. During his tenure as chief, Engledow arranged for the first full-time firefighters to be hired directly by Troy, instead of through a contract service, and changed the department vehicle colors from yellow-green to a dark red. He also prepared evaluations that reduced insurance ratings for Shorewood property owners because of increased fire services.

The Rev. Warren Dorris of Joliet recently visited Israel. The visit came at a tumultuous time, as Israel was pulling back its forces from the Gaza Strip following operations to destroy Hamas infiltration tunnels and rocket sites. “The first thing they told us when we got to the hotel was where the bomb shelter was,” Dorris said. “We were told if the alarms went off, we’d have a minute and a half to get in the shelter.” A brief ceasefire kept the group out of the shelters during its three-day visit, but fighting broke out again as the group left for the United States

on Aug 8. “We were in the air for about five minutes when the ceasefire ended and they started firing missiles again,” Dorris said. In addition to meeting with officials and touring the Knesset, Israel’s national legislature, the group went into the hills overlooking Gaza, where Dorris said he could see troops and armor moving. They also viewed an infiltration tunnel. “It was unbelievable. It was so big you could drive a car or motorcycle through it,” Dorris said.

JOLIET – The Rev. Warren Dorris Jr. has visited Israel three times, twice as a tourist and the third as part of a group of 25 U.S. ministers showing support for the Jewish state. But Dorris said the third time was anything but a charm. “I would not go back to Israel in time of war,” Dorris said. “It’s too scary, too unstable. It was a totally different from when I was there in March. Security was unbelievably tight. People were so afraid. The streets were empty. There were bomb shelters everywhere.” Dorris, pastor of Prayer Tower Church of God in Christ in Joliet and former Joliet city councilman, was invited on the 72-hour trip as part of The Rev. John Hagee’s Christians United For Israel ministry. The group stayed in Tel Aviv, where it met with Israel’s top government officials, including Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Dorris said the group also met with the father of one of the two Israeli teens whose deaths at the hands of Hamas predicated the latest conflict. While he is sympathetic to Israel, Dorris said he made the visit to promote peace for both sides in the conflict. “When two elephants fight, the only thing that gets hurt is the grass, and unfortunately, innocent people are the grass in this case,” Dorris said. “I went there for humanitarian reasons. I went there for peace, but not everyone wants peace. Many want victory. It’s not the same thing.”

Troy fire chief will retire

Application period starts for energy assistance program Almost 6,100 benefited from LIHEAP last year By FELIX SARVER fsarver@shawmedia.com JOLIET – Eligible Will County residents can apply Tuesday for a winter energy assistance program, which has funding expected to last until it ends next year. Applications can be submitted to the Will County Center for Community Concerns, the administrator for the Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program, or LIHEAP, which provides assistance on winter heating bills to income-eligible households. “It kind of helps them pay for that necessity based on income,” said Marla Ramos, the center’s housing programs and outreach director.

Application periods • Tuesday: households with a family member who is 60 and older or a member who is receiving Social Security disability payments. • Oct. 1: households with one of the following conditions: a heating system that does not work or has been red-tagged by the utility company; disconnected service because of non-payment; a child under the age of 6. • Nov. 3: any households that meet the income requirements.

She said LIHEAP is one of the largest programs the Will County center runs, with 6,096 households benefiting from it last year. Application periods are divided on a priority basis. Households with a family member who is 60 and older or a member receiving Social Security disability payments can submit an application starting Tuesday. On Oct. 1, applications

can be made by households with one of the following conditions: a heating system that does not work or has been red-tagged by the utility company; disconnected service because of non-payment; or a child younger age 6. The program will be available to households that meet income requirements on Nov. 3, including those under imminent threat of being disconnected. Applications will be taken through May 29, 2015, or until funding is exhausted. Ramos said in the past few years the program has had enough money for its entire run. The priority period ensures people who are interested in applying have the opportunity to do so, she said. “That just makes the priority period for them to come in a little bit easier,” she said. Households must be at or below 150 percent of the

There will be an option to accept a one-time payment to utility providers or enroll in a payment plan based on percentage of income. Applicants are required to bring all documents needed to start the application process. That documentation in-

cludes: • Social Security cards for everyone in the household; • Income documents from the last 30 days for people 18 years and older; • Printouts such as food stamps or medical cards from other agencies; • Gas or electric bills; • Any other documents needed based on the household situation. Ramos said once these documents are inspected, the center staff may ask for other documents as well. The Will County Center for Community Concerns is at 304 N. Scott St., Joliet.

commissioner on the Plainfield Township Park District board:

Submit a résumé, along with answers to the following questions, to Bertino-Tarrant’s office at 15300 Route 59, Unit 201, Plainfield, IL, or via email at bertinotarrant49@att. net, by Friday: 1. Explain the vision you would bring to the Plainfield park district if you were selected to serve? 2. What skills and experiences do you have that would be an asset to the park district? 3. If you have ever been a member of a public body or organization that has experienced conflicts, describe how you worked to resolve such conflicts. Cross also is accepting résumé’s for his selection to the park board. Interested applicants can send their résumés to tom@tomcross.com or by mail to 24047 W. Lockport St., Suite 213, Plainfield.

The committee will narrow the applicant pool to two individuals. Then Bertino-Tarrant will select one candidate to serve on the board. The Plainfield park board bill was co-sponsored by Cross and Rep. Natalie Manley, D-Joliet, in February. It came as a result of issues stemming from votes and actions of park commissioners Peter Hurtado, Peter Steinys and Janet Silosky, and their selection of former Executive Director Garrett Peck. Those issues included a charge of interfering with labor practices by the Illinois Labor Relations Board and subsequent settlement with an employee, a number of unpopular executive decisions, and an investigation of Hurtado involving a grand jury regarding the sale of LED lights to the district.

“I want to ensure that we make the best decision possible for the Plainfield park district and for our community.” Jennifer Bertino-Tarrant, state senator

PLAINFIELD – State Sen. Jennifer Bertino-Tarrant, D-Shorewood, has formed a selection committee to review applications for Plainfield Township Park commissioner. Rep. Tom Cross, R-Oswego, also is accepting applications for another commissioner position on the park board. Plainfield Village Trustee Jim Racich, former park Tom Cross commissioner Michelle Kelly, and Plainfield residents Jennifer Bernhard and Michelle Jones were selected to be on Bertino-TarJennifer rant’s commisBertinosion, according Tarrant to her office. “I feel that community members involved with the selection process is especially critical due to the reasons we were called on to intervene in the first place,” Bertino-Tarrant said in a news release. “I want to ensure that we make the best decision possible for the Plainfield park district and for our community.” Gov. Pat Quinn signed a bill on Aug. 15 that allows Bertino-Tarrant and Cross to each appoint a new commissioner to the park board. Bertino-Tarrant’s committee was selected based on several factors. Racich is a municipal official. Kelly is involved in the loosely organized citizen’s group, Park Truth. And Bernhard and Jones were selected because they are residents who regularly use park district services and programs.

Summer did not go swimmingly at local pools Rain, mild weather keeps attendance low By BILL WIMBISCUS bwimbiscus@shawmedia.com This year’s cool, wet summer really put the heat on public outdoor swimming pools. “I don’t know if we had a 90-degree day this summer,” said Dominic Egizio, executive director of the Joliet Park District. Weather data for most of July and August shows long strings of daily highs hovering mostly around 80 degrees – warm though not necessarily temperatures that prompt leaping into a swimming pool. Last week’s hot weather came too late for most facilities, which either already were closed for the season or operating only on weekends since students returned to school. “For swimming, it was challenging weather,” said Angela Brown, facilities managers for Tomahawk Aquatic Center in Channahon. “It’s been beautiful weather to get out and do a lot things, but people want it to be hot and sunny for swimming.” Cool, breezy weather kept Tomahawk’s daily attendance down, though the district’s swim lesson program held steady, Brown said. Jared Miller, aquatic super-

visor for the Lockport Township Park District, echoed similar concerns. “We’re noticing the heat is trending later and later into the summer,” Miller said. “We had to wait until the middle of August for consistently hot days.” Lockport Township maintains two pools: Chaney in Crest Hill and Heritage Falls Water Park in Romeoville. Chaney, which functions more like a neighborhood pool, has consistently maintained patrons over its many years of use, Miller said. Splash pads, which allow young children to cool off without the safety concerns of a traditional pool, remained a big hit at Heritage Falls, he said. Rain was another problem this year. In addition to driving away customers, rainwater can play havoc with a pool’s chlorine and pH levels, Brown said, though it does help counter evaporation losses. Cool weather and rain kept Splash Station attendance about 49,875 for a second straight year, down considerably from the 72,271 people who visited the facility during the scorching summer of 2012. “The numbers are consistent with what they were last

Splash Station Waterpark in Joliet as it looked in May. A lukewarm summer led to low attendance at Splash Station and other area pools and water parks. year, which weren’t huge,” Egizio said. Despite the lower turnout, Egizio noted that having the water park was more about

maintaining quality of life than generating revenue. “For a town our size, not to have anything would be a real shame,” Egizio said. “It angers

a lot of people that it doesn’t make money, but when we had [outdoor pools at] Nowell and Inwood, combined they lost about the same amount.”

Basketball coach Jack Kraft dies

BRIEF

Led Villanova Wildcats to 238 victories, NCAA title game

HONOLULU – Glenn Cornick, the original bass player in the rock band Jethro Tull, died of congestive heart failure at his home in Hilo, Hawaii, on Thursday. Drew Cornick says his 67-year-old father had been receiving hospice care. Cornick performed with Jethro Tull from its inception in late 1967 until 1970. The band’s vocalist and floutist, Ian Anderson, said on the band’s website that Cornick brought bravado to Jethro Tull’s early stage performances. Anderson said Cornick made considerable contributions to music. In addition to his son Drew Cornick, Cornick is survived by his wife, Brigitte Martinez-Cornick of Hilo; a daughter, Molly Cornick; and another son, Alex Cornick.

The ASSOCIATED PRESS VILLANOVA, Pa. – Jack Kraft, the Villanova basketball coach who guided the Wildcats to the 1971 NCAA title game and coached such players as Wali Jones, Bill Melchionni and Howard Porter, has died. He was 93. He died Thursday in New Jersey, the school said in a statement Friday. Kraft coached the Wildcats for a dozen seasons and finished with 238 victories and a .715 winning percentage. His teams went to the postseason in 11 of his 12 years. “Coach Kraft was a winner, a gentleman and an outstanding coach,” coach Jay Wright said. “His players loved and respected him. They stayed in touch with him until his final days.” In addition to Jones,

and Tom Ingelsby. In 1971, a 23-6 record brought the team to the Final Four for the first time since 1939. The Wildcats lost, 68-62,

in the final to a UCLA team coached by John Wooden. Porter was honored as the tournament’s outstanding player, but that was later nullified and Villanova was disqualified. Porter was deemed ineligible for professional basketball connections. In 2007, Porter died at 58 after he was found severely beaten in an alley. Kraft came to Villanova in 1961 from nearby Malvern Prep, succeeding Al Severance. His first team finished with a 21-7 record and made it to the NCAA playoffs, the first of six tournament appearances during his stay. Kraft, who later coached at the University of Rhode Island, was honored at the Pavilion in 2011, 50 years after his first win, before many former players.

STATE

Candidates plan to capitalize on frustrations and state’s low turnout rates By KERRY LESTER The Associated Press DECATUR – The candidates for Illinois congressional seats heard all about it during visits with voters in August: Disgust with Washington. Dismay over accusations and negative advertising in Illinois’ state races. Lack of interest in the Nov. 4 election. While the complaints transcend party allegiances and demographic boundaries, Republicans are aiming to capitalize on the frustrations and predicted low voter turnout to take back a number of congressional districts across Illinois and help the GOP solidify its hold on the House just two years after losing most of the state’s competitive seats. Among the incumbents targeted as vulnerable are freshmen Democrats Brad Schneider, who represents the suburbs north of Chicago, Bill Enyart, who represents southern Illinois, and Cheri Bustos, who represents a swath of northwestern and central Illinois. Meanwhile, both sides are pouring money into a tough contest pitting one of the GOP’s own freshman, Rodney Davis, against former Madison County Circuit Court Judge Ann Callis in the bow-tie shaped district that stretches from Champaign to the St. Louis suburbs. Two of the races are rematches from 2012, when Schneider defeated first-term GOP Rep. Bob Dold and Bustos defeated first-term GOP Rep. Bobby Schilling. The Democratic victories two years ago were aided by turnout for President Barack Obama and a new congressional district map, drawn by Democrats in Springfield that heavily favors Democrats.

Democrat at the top of the ticket, Gov. Pat Quinn. Quinn’s approval ratings are among the lowest of the nation’s governors and he has angered some traditional Democratic allies, such as union members, for supporting reduced state worker benefits to deal with the state pension crisis. “I think you’re going to see a lot of Democrats just staying home,” Yepsen said. “I think that starts to hurt other Democrats up and down the tickets.” Congressional candidates have encountered the general malaise as they make their campaign rounds. Congress “has lost sight of the average Americans’ needs and wants and concerns,” said Albert Weidlich, an 84-year-old

retiree after a candidate forum in Decatur during Congress’ annual August recess. Katie Prill, a spokeswoman for the National Republican Congressional Committee, said the GOP’s Illinois strategy has changed from defense to offense. The NRCC has spent a half million dollars on television ads to support Dold against Schneider, and a total of $1.4 million to support Mike Bost, who is facing the Democrat Enyart, and Davis in their races. Prill singled out the Dold-Schneider race as a “huge pickup opportunity” for Republicans. Dold lost to Schneider in the independent-leaning district by about one percentage point in 2012. The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee has spent $800,000 on ads so far in the Dold-Schneider race, and about $3.5 million in the other two districts. U.S. House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi recently appeared in Chicago to rally with Callis and Schneider, and push the Democratic campaign themes of equal pay for women and raising the minimum wage. DCCC spokesman Brandon Lorenz rejected the idea of GOP gains, saying voters will recognize that the GOP “rewards the ultra-wealthy and the special interests.” Eighty-one year-old Barbara Norem was among the undecided voters who showed up at a Decatur senior center to hear Davis speak last month. She said her top concerns were the future of Medicare, Social Security and other government services that help her and her husband stay in their home as health care costs escalate. However, “When you hear the news, you think all Congress does is fight,” she said.

University of Illinois facing scrutiny over job-offer decision

URBANA – The University of Illinois is facing scrutiny as classes resume from some of its faculty, other academics and students over its decision to rescind a job offer to a professor after his prolific, sometimes profane use of Twitter to voice anger at Israel. Phyllis Wise, the chancellor of the university’s Urbana-Champaign campus, said she decided not to hire Steven Salaita, a professor of American Indian studies, over concerns about what she called demeaning and abusive language. She heard by email from several dozen students, parents and financial donors expressing concerns, some of whom accused Salaita of anti-Semitism. Salaita’s defenders say the decision violates his academic freedom, a concept that along with the tenure that shields professors from fallout over unpopular or controversial opinions goes far beyond the legal protections shared by workers in most businesses. “As far as I am concerned, this would never [have] happened without external pressure,” said Robert Warrior, chairman of the university’s American Indian Studies Program. Salaita was an English professor at Virginia Tech University when in October 2013 he accepted an offer to become a professor in the University of Illinois’ American Indian Studies Program, scheduled to start in the fall of 2014 with a salary of $85,000. But in July, as Israel and the Palestinians battled in Gaza, Salaita frequently used Twitter – sometimes authoring dozens of messages a day, many with obscenities – criticizing Israel, Arab nations and others. For example, in a post on July 20, he wrote: “Zionists: transforming ‘antisemitism’ from something

Springfield museum to display 1916 military equipment

SPRINGFIELD – If you’ve ever wondered how Americans waged war 100 years ago, the Illinois State Military Museum will give you a glimpse of the past. The Springfield museum plans to put uniforms, weapons and other equipment on display that was used by the Illinois National Guard during a 1916 border campaign against Pancho Villa. The Mexican revolutionary raided New Mexico, and Maj. Gen. John Pershing launched a yearlong effort to get him. Illinois’ guardsmen were mobilized along the Texas border. A Friday press release from the National Guard says the campaign was the first time the Army used airplanes and trucks. It turned out to be a dress rehearsal for American participation in World War I.

Asian carp barrier back up on Lake Decatur dam

DECATUR – A barrier meant to keep invasive Asian carp out of Lake Decatur is again in place after it was damaged during bad weather in February. The Decatur Herald & Review reported the 4-foot screen has been placed back on top of a dam. The barrier was installed in January but failed a month later when part of the screen detached. Jerry Stevens is the city’s engineering services coordinator. He told the newspaper design changes were made to strengthen the barrier. He said it will be able to withstand ice and debris. The invasive carp are a menace to aquatic food chains and are making their way up the Mississippi River.

Demonstrators are arrested outside the White House on Thursday in Washington, D.C., during a rally calling for President Barack Obama to stop deportations of migrants in the country illegally and to make a decision on how to provide relief for immigrant families. U.S. Park Police said 145 people were arrested.

Delay on immigration action causes uncertainty Both parties unsure how to proceed before midterms By JOSH LEDERMAN and ERICA WERNER The Associated Press WASHINGTON – President Barack Obama’s possible delay in taking action on immigration has thrown advocates and lawmakers from both parties a curveball, barely two months before the midterm elections. Democrats who were bracing for the impact that Obama’s long-awaited announcement would have on their campaigns are now rethinking aspects of their strategy for the fall. Republicans who were considering legislative attempts to block Obama must reconsider whether that’s the best use of the few remaining work weeks before Election Day. And immigration advocates, already frustrated by how long it’s taken Obama to act, must decide whether to pressure the president public-

ly to stop stalling or remain hopeful he’ll give them a favorable outcome in the end. Obama in June said that by the end of the summer, he’d announce what steps he had decided to take to fix the nation’s immigration system in the absence of a legislative fix from Capitol Hill. But Obama backed away from that deadline on Thursday, and the White House on Friday acknowledged it was possible the decision would slip past the end of summer. It was unclear whether any delay would be a mere matter of weeks or could push the announcement past the November elections. “The president is determined to take the kinds of steps that are available to him,” said White House spokesman Josh Earnest. But he added he had no details about when that would happen. Reluctant to be seen as putting on the brakes for political

reasons, White House officials suggested that if the decision slips past summer, it would be because of the situation on the border, not the election. For months, the Obama administration has been working to stem the surge of unaccompanied minors crossing into the U.S. Those numbers have declined, but officials have said the numbers could creep back up as cooler temperatures arrive in the fall. The White House has been coy about what options Obama is considering, but much of the focus has centered on steps Obama could take to defer deportations for millions of people in the U.S. illegally, effectively granting them permission to remain and work in the U.S. Republicans say that’s beyond Obama’s authority and even a few endangered Democrats have said Obama should look to Congress to take that step.

Common Core backlash Many states fighting to repeal new school standards By KIMBERLY HEFLING and JULIE CARR SMYTH The Associated Press COLUMBUS, Ohio – Millions of students will sit down at computers this year to take new tests rooted in the Common Core standards for math and reading, but policymakers in many states are having buyer’s remorse. The fight to repeal the standards has heated up in Ohio, with state Rep. Andy Thompson, a Republican, saying it’s kind of “creepy the way this whole thing landed in Ohio with all the things prepackaged.” It’s playing out in Louisiana, where GOP Gov. Bobby Jindal is in a nasty feud involving his former ally, Education Superintendent John White. Jindal has sued the Obama administration, accusing Washington of illegally manipulating federal grant money and regulations to force states to adopt the Common Core education standards. The standards were scrapped this year in Indiana and Oklahoma. Governors in North Carolina, South Carolina and Missouri have signed legislation to reconsider the standards, even though they still will be used in those three states this fall. Like many critics, Thompson and Jindal base their opposition on federal support of the standards. But states led the Common Core movement that really took off in 2009 and that effort was voluntary. The administration offered incentives to states to adopt college and career-ready standards, and Common Core fit the bill. The incentives included cash grants and permission to ignore parts of the much-maligned No Child Left Behind law. The standards emphasize critical thinking and spell out what reading and math skills students should grasp at each grade level, while leaving how those skills are mastered up to districts and states. The hope was that higher standards shared across state lines would allow for shared resources,

Matt Huffman listening to testimony on House Bill 597 on Aug. 19 in the House Finance Hearing Room at the Ohio Statehouse in Columbus, Ohio. The bill is designed to eliminate Common Core education standards in Ohio. comparable student performance measures and smoother school-to-school transitions for children who move, such as military kids. Nearly every state adopted the standards.

DEBATE SPREADS The debate over Common Core has spilled into the national political realm. Among potential GOP presidential candidates in 2016, former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush supports the standards; Jindal, Indiana Gov. Mike Pence and Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul do not. Teachers’ unions, historically aligned with the Democrats, endorsed the standards and helped develop them. But they now complain about botched efforts to put them in place and say it’s unfair to use Common Core-based assessments in new teacher evaluation systems rolling out in much of the United States. The issue has gotten pulled into a general anti-testing backlash in parts of the country. To ease the testing concerns, Education Secretary Arne Duncan recently said he would allow states to delay using students’ test scores in teacher evaluation systems. “What really has happened is that this has become a politicized issue and it’s become

an ideological symbol, interestingly, on both sides,” said Patrick McGuinn, a political science professor at Drew University. He said the standards and the assessments designed under them are generally considered acceptable or of high quality.

CLASSROOMS PREPARE Far from the political discourse, American classrooms continue to be transformed by the use of the standards, with new curricula developed and teachers trained. Some parents are perplexed by the new ways their children are completing their lessons. Supporters like former Georgia Gov. Sonny Perdue, a Republican who helped lead the governors’ group that identified the goals set by Common Core, say politics and mistruths have hijacked a needed and effective education overhaul. The standards were a response from governors in a defensive mode to keep the federal government out of education, Perdue said, and he supported the changes out of concern for U.S. students’ global competitiveness. The U.S. Chamber of Commerce is among backers. “It’s just a situation that I don’t think should have become political, which has be-

come politically toxic and I don’t really know how to decontaminate that,” Perdue said.

SHIFTING PUBLIC OPINION A PDK/Gallup Poll released Aug. 20 found a dramatic change in the number of people aware of the standards. Last year, two-thirds of those surveyed said they’d never heard of the standards. This year, 81 percent said they had – and 6 in 10 said they oppose them. Daniel A. Domenech, executive director of the national organization representing school superintendents, said polling provides more evidence it’s important to “slow down to get it right.” This school year marks a milestone. This coming spring, roughly 11 million students in more than half the states are expected to take new computer-based assessments aligned with Common Core standards that were developed by two groups of states to replace the standardized tests that had been used. States can choose the assessment to be used, but those decisions have not been without controversy. Some states, including Georgia and Michigan, that originally joined the consortiums, have dropped out and opted for different tests.

WORLD BRIEFS Saudi king warns of terrorist threat to U.S. RIYADH, Saudi Arabia – The king of Saudi Arabia has warned that extremists could attack Europe and the U.S. if there is not a strong international response to terrorism after the Islamic State group seized a wide territory across Iraq and Syria. While not mentioning any terrorist groups by name, King Abdullah’s statement appeared aimed at drawing Washington and NATO forces into a wider fight against the Islamic State group and its supporters in the region. Saudi Arabia openly backs rebels fighting Syrian President Bashar Assad, but is concerned that the breakaway al-Qaida group could also turn those very same weapons on the kingdom. “If neglected, I am certain that after a month they will reach Europe and, after another month, America,” he said at a reception for foreign ambassadors Friday.

Liberian Ebola survivor praises new drug MONROVIA, Liberia – A Liberian health worker who recovered from Ebola after receiving an experimental drug urged the manufacturer to speed up its production and send it to Africa, while crowds celebrated in the streets Saturday after authorities reopened a slum that had been barricaded for more than a week to try to contain the disease. Physician’s assistant Kyndy Kobbah was expected to be released from hospital Saturday after she survived Ebola, which has been fatal in more than half the cases sweeping West Africa. Kobbah contracted the disease while working at a government-run hospital north of the capital. “I am very fine and all right, glory be to God,” she said. “I trusted God that I was going to be healed.”

Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko (right) talks with German Chancellor Angela Merkel during an European People’s Party summit Saturday ahead of the EU summit in Brussels.

By JUERGEN BAETZ and JIM HEINTZ The Associated Press BRUSSELS – Despite tough rhetoric decrying Russia’s increasing military involvement in Ukraine, European Union leaders on Sunday stopped short of imposing new sanctions against Moscow right away. Instead, the 28-nation bloc’s heads of state and government tasked their executive body to “urgently” prepare tougher economic sanctions that could be adopted within a week, according to EU summit chairman Herman Van Rompuy. The decision on new sanctions will depend on the evolution of the situation on the ground but “everybody is fully aware that we have to act quickly,” he added. The EU leaders call on Russia to “immediately withdraw all its military assets and forces from Ukraine,” they said in a joint statement. NATO said this week that at least 1,000 Russian soldiers are in Ukraine. Russia denies that. NATO also says Russia has amassed some 20,000 troops just across Ukraine’s eastern border, which could rapidly carry out a full-scale invasion. The fighting between the

military and Russian-backed separatists in eastern Ukraine has so far claimed 2,600 lives, according to U.N. figures. The U.S. and the EU have so far imposed sanctions against dozens of Russian officials, several companies as well as the country’s financial and arms industry. Moscow has retaliated by banning food imports. German Chancellor Angela Merkel said the new sanctions would target the same sectors as previous punitive measures, which also included an export ban for some high technology and oil exploration equipment. “If Russia continues to escalate the crisis it will come with a high cost,” said EU Commission President Jose Manuel Barroso. “It’s time for everyone to get down to the business of peace-making. It is not too late, but time is quickly running out,” he said. Several European leaders had called for additional sanctions at the outset of the meeting in Brussels, but the fear of an economic backlash apparently prevailed and led the bloc to grant Russia another chance at avoiding tougher action. New sanctions would have required unanimity among the leaders.

fessional intimately and the reader’s problem personally. And in almost every instance, I don’t. I want you to select the best professional available, but I’m unable to make the choice for you. However, read on. I asked my daughter (she’s one of the good lawyers who live far from Chicago) to check both law firms and their lawyers via Martindale-Hubbell, and neither firm had an edge. Both firms, their partners and their almost-partners are highly regarded in this specialty. She went the extra mile and spoke with a federal judge and a state judge whom she has known for years. They were equally effusive in their praise of both firms. Then she used my query as an excuse to renew her acquaintance with two guys who graduated in her 1996 law school class. She was told that both firms are equal in every way, and

TAKING STOCK Malcolm Berko surprisingly, the brother of one of them is a partner in law firm No. 2. While on a recent flight between two far-apart cities, I had an extremely enjoyable and spirited three-hour conversation with a 50-something sincere but preternaturally pompous and arrogant businessman. He was forced to fly commercial because the spare part Butler Aviation had ordered for his jet was late in delivery. He had the scent of expensive cologne and wore a bespoke suit and Rolex, the costs of which would easily support the average American family for nine months. This fellow had no idea that I was delightfully funning him for most of those three hours. If he did have an inkling that

I was teasing him, he was a darn good sport about it. If he remembers me, he would remember me as a retired accountant with a small family practice in central Florida. A “retired accountant” is one of the professions I use when I’m not in the mood to visit and find myself stuck near someone who asks, “So what do you do for a living?” Who or what could be less interesting than a retired family accountant in Florida? I’ve learned, though not soon enough, that the best conversationalist is a good listener and that I can learn a lot by listening. I can also be a brilliant conversationalist when I frequently use the words “how” and “why” in my sentences. Although this guy was the perfect foil, I was able to absorb some of his over-generously shared business acumen. And I recall how he officiously boasted that the deciding

factor in his recent choice of competing lawyers (all of whom were equally competent and politically correct) for his “extensive family holdings” was “which law firm employs a warmblooded human being to answer their phone lines.” That was important to him even though he had access to their private lines. So, SG, all things being equal, I’d also choose the firm that employs a sentient human to answer the phone and take a message rather than a machine that tells you to press 1, hold and press another number. I think my pompous and arrogant seatmate may have helped me answer this question for you. Good luck, and yes, I remember your old firm. • Address your financial questions to Malcolm Berko, P.O.

Dear Mr. Berko: After three years, we had to dismiss our legal counsel, though we parted on excellent terms. I know you are familiar with our case because that firm unsuccessfully offered you a retainer and ongoing fee to advise it. We have narrowed our choice between two law firms in Chicago, and we are asking whether you are familiar enough with their special expertise to give us a recommendation. How does one make a choice in selecting representation between law firm No. 1 and law firm No. 2, which seem equally competent and competitive in costs? This is very important to us, and we hope you can give us your recommendation. – SG, Joliet Dear SG: A few times a month, a reader somewhere in the country will ask me to approve of a lawyer or a certified public accountant or a professional in his state.

OPINION

OUR VIEW

A deserving day off for workers For the lucky ones, Monday is a day off. Maybe you’ll sleep in, fire up the grill and enjoy one last summer hurrah. Monday is Labor Day, a day to celebrate the social and economic achievements of workers. Everyone who works deserves recognition for the contributions they bring to the economy. A day off that honors workers seems the least the country can do. Granted, those who aren’t working – but looking for a job – deserve a day to be recognized too. It hasn’t been easy for years for many of our residents. The picture might be getting a little brighter: In July, the unemployment rate in Illinois stood at 6.8 percent – down from 9.2 percent a year ago, according to the Joint Economic Committee for the U.S. Congress. Locally, Will County is seeing improvements in jobless rates, job growth and business investments. There was a 3.5 percent increase in job growth in Will County – three times the increase seen statewide between June 2013 and June 2014, according to a report from the Will County Center for Economic Development. Jobless rates in Will County fell from 10.4 percent in June 2013 to 7.3 percent this June, according to the CED report. At the same time, the number of Will County residents employed in the county increased 1.5 percent between June 2013 and June 2014, from 338,972 to 344,305. In Grundy County, the unemployment rate for July was 7.2 percent – down from 8.1 percent in June, and from 11.4 percent in July 2013, accord-

THE FIRST AMENDMENT

ing to the Illinois Department of Employment Security. Statewide, private sector jobs in Illinois grew by 11,200 jobs in July. Since February 2010 (the national low point for private-sector employment), Illinois private-sector employers have added 260,400 jobs, according to the Illinois Economic Snapshot from the congressional Joint Economic Committee. There were 445,400 Illinois residents unemployed during July, down from a recent high of 753,500 in January 2010. Still, there are 78,300 more people unemployed in Illinois than when the recession began, according to the Joint Economic Committee. The state’s unemployment rate lags behind the country’s, which was 6.2 percent in July, and other Midwest states. And while private sector employment is growing, Illinois ranks near the bottom of the country in overall job creation since the Great Recession ended. The Associated Press reported July 18 that Illinois ranked 42nd in job creation, with 5.81 million jobs in June 2014, up 3 percent from 5.64 million in June 2009, according to the U.S. Labor Department. There is still much that can be done to improve the working climate in Illinois – and we should be pressuring our lawmakers to take action. The 67-percent “temporary” personal income tax increase and 46 percent corporate income tax rate passed in 2011 should be allowed to sunset as promised in January.

It’s all about the children “It’s all about the children.” Time and again, we hear this refrain from everyone who ever talks about education, from every angle. It’s been the purported basis of speeches, documentaries and now lawsuits. But how can it be all about the children when you have some – under the guise of “education reform” – undermining America’s public schools? As kids across the country go back to school, it’s time to get back to the basic values that bind us together. As one of the chairs of a new organization called Democrats for Public Education, I’m part of a group focused on just that – supporting public education. We believe in instilling critical thinking skills needed for 21st-century jobs and the new economy. We support superior standards and finding ways to

VIEWS Donna Brazile make classrooms challenging and rewarding for both teachers and students. And we’re committed to a level playing field for all with well-resourced schools responsive to the needs of our communities. As a proud graduate of Louisiana’s public schools, I know the importance of a good public education. I know just how tough it is to make something of yourself when you start off with little or nothing. Right now, a galling 22 percent of children in America – the richest country in history – live in poverty, and nearly half come from low-income families struggling to meet basic needs. The only way we can break cycles of poverty, while revitalizing and growing our middle-class,

is to support our public schools. Frankly, it’s the way we can provide a springboard for the working poor and preserve our American values. Education is not a business. Students aren’t robots, and they shouldn’t be treated like assembly line workers at the test prep factory. Attempts to move our classrooms toward an unregulated, survival-of-the-fittest, business-first mentality ignores the purpose of education. Indeed, the very premise of “market-driven education reform” rests on a lie. It’s an outright fallacy that our public school system is in crisis and that the only solution is to let the market pick winners and losers. Our kids are not losers! We must measure success not by how children score on a narrow standardized test, but by how they deal with the varied tests of life.

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

Lower taxes would help • WORKERS Continued from page 30 Lower taxes could encourage business growth. There have been improvements in workers compensation – it was announced in July that the National Council on Compensation Insurance recommended a 5.5 percent cut in the rates for next year – but statewide, business leaders have said more needs to be done to create a more hospitable business environment. And, of course, we’d like to

see serious action that actually addresses the state’s ever-growing pension liability. Those who earned a pension deserve to know what they can count on, and all taxpayers deserve to know the state is committed to easing taxpayers’ burden. Labor Day is the unofficial end to summer. It’s often also considered the kick off to earnest campaigning for the November elections. We encourage all our readers to educate themselves on where candidates stand when it comes to improving the state’s work environment.

Tests don’t inspire learning. Teachers and parents do. We should be championing educators as heroes. They’re the ones dedicating their lives to shaping young minds. They’re the ones in the classroom day in and day out. So when education professionals with decades of first-hand experience give constructive criticism, we should listen with open ears and an open mind. Simply put, they’re the ones who know best. Here’s what dedicated parents and seasoned educators all across the country see: stalled reform efforts, poor implementation of programs and nervous students spending 30 percent of their school year on test preparation. By speaking out about this troubling pattern, teachers are exemplifying what it truly means to be answerable to and responsible for the well-being of children. Teachers aren’t afraid of real accountability. But the accountability of a teacher – or the achievement of a student – cannot and should never be boiled down to a few test scores per year. Further, it’s doubly unfair to judge teachers on student performance, when the performance itself is being judged by an imperfect, dubious standard. According to a PDK/Gallup poll, three in four Americans believe the previous decade’s obsession with standardized testing ei-

ther had no effect or even hurt our schools. It’s no surprise that nearly 60 percent say they don’t support using test scores to evaluate teachers. No one benefits when “education experts” – many with only a couple years in the classroom and some with none at all – tell teachers that their expertise doesn’t matter and they don’t have the best interests of children at heart. When you peel back the onion, it’s clear these well-orchestrated attacks are coming from nothing more than a few well-funded, vocal groups intent on cherry-picking statistics and warping facts. Enough is enough. It’s time we collectively push back against efforts to undermine America’s education system, our teachers and the kids themselves. That’s why, as classrooms start filling up again here at the end of summer, I’m proud to be part of an effort to help Democrats for Public Education get off the ground. It’s time to lift up public education and remind everyone that this truly is about our children. The way to do that is by working together in every community to ensure our public schools endure – and thrive – for generations to come.

PROVIDENCE 21, JOLIET CATHOLIC 10

By DICK GOSS dgoss@shawmedia.com

• Sunday, August 31, 2014

JOLIET – It was no secret. To beat Joliet Catholic, you need to prevent big plays. Providence’s defense carried out that mission Friday night as the Celtics topped the Hilltoppers, 21-10, in the season opener between the two perennial powers at Memorial Stadium. “We practiced for their offense all summer,” Providence senior linebacker Jimmy Sharkey said. “We had to have a bounce back from what happened in the first game last year.” A year ago on the same Memorial Stadium turf, Mike Ivlow, now at Saint Xavier, ran wild in a 42-35 JCA victory. This time, the Hilltoppers were limited to 61 rushing yards in 32 attempts. “Our defensive line played out of their minds,” Sharkey said. “We had two juniors up there, Tyler Schiemann and David Charnot, who did a real good job.” Nick Borgra managed a 10yard run in the fourth quarter for JCA. Otherwise, the Hilltoppers’ longest run was seven yards. “Defensively, it was big that we stayed away from big plays,” Providence coach Mark Coglianese said. “Our defensive line did the job and the linebackers were outstanding. Jimmy Strimel [the Celtics’ defensive coordinator] did a great job all offseason getting us ready. We had been manhandled up front by JCA before, so we moved people a little.” “They used a four-man line, and in all the scouting we’ve done, we’ve never seen that,” JCA coach Dan Sharp said. “It’s always been a 3-4. That totally changed our blocking schemes, and we missed some blocks. “Now we know how Army must have felt when Knute Rockne threw that first forward pass.” JCA junior quarterback Cade Earl kept things interesting with his passing, especially to the backs. Earl completed 14 of 22 for 181 yards, including a 39-

BELOW RIGHT: Joliet Catholic’s Jacob Elliot runs the ball during the first quarter. yard touchdown strike deep down the middle to wingback Michael Johnson early in the fourth quarter to bring the score to 21-10. After a Providence punt, Earl drove JCA back into Celtics’ territory. But on third-and-5 from the 42-yard line, he moved out of the pocket and was hit hard by defensive lineman Jake Rost as he released a pass. He suffered what appeared to be a lower back injury and was taken by ambulance to the hospital. “We weren’t able to get a good read on Cade’s injury,” JCA coach Dan Sharp said. “We just hope and pray it’s nothing serious. He is the

heart and soul of our offense. He knows how to run it.” Providence senior quarterback Justin Hunniford was on target all night, completing 25 of 30 passes for 266 yards and touchdowns. Nate Vejvoda caught six passes for 74 yards, Mike Beller finished with six receptions for 73, Miles Boykin had five catches for 70 and running back Sean Diehl ended with three for 23. “Sean Diehl made tough catches out of the backfield and Warfield really ran hard, which we knew he would,” Coglianese said. Warfield and Diehl combined for 76 rushing yards.

Nick Borgra netted 38 yards on 19 carries for JCA. With a scoreless tie intact midway through the second quarter, Providence’s Michael Madej returned a punt 25 yards to the JCA 31-yard line. Hunniford hit sophomore running back Richie Warfield in the flat for eight yards and found Mike Beller for nine more. Three plays later, on thirdand-four from the 8, Hunniford hit Miles Boykin in the flat, and he stretched over the goal line for the score. JCA tried to convert a fourth-and-1 from its 28 on the next possession, and linebackers Sharkey and Bren-

dan O’Hara combined to stop Borgra for no gain, giving the Celtics possession. They used six plays and scored on Hunniford’s lob to the 6-foot-5 Vejvoda in the end zone for a 14-0 lead. The Hilltoppers avoided being blanked in the half when Brian Bravo kicked a 53-yard field goal on the final play. The Celtics mounted a long scoring drive on their second possession of the third quarter, culminating in Warfield’s 7-yard run, to get a little more comfortable. “This is a great rivalry, two great traditions,” Coglianese said. “It’s always good to beat JCA.”

Hunniford inflicts more damage on JCA VIEWS Dick Goss Providence’s defense stifled Joliet Catholic’s running game. Is it a surprise? Probably not to most. The Celtics’ passing attack, under the direction of senior quarterback Justin Hunniford, was solid. No surprise there at all. Hunniford, who broke two school passing records when he completed 30 of 38 passes for 341 yards in Providence’s 42-35 loss to JCA in last season’s opener at Memorial Stadium, was every bit as good Friday night. Maybe better. This time, he connected on 25 of 30 for 266 yards and two touchdowns. If he made any mistakes, they were few and far between. “Overall, it’s the experience of having played 12 games,” Hunniford said of the difference in himself between this year and last. “This was a situation where we came in knowing what to expect. “We have that, and we have a lot of depth to work with. We have five or six good wide receivers, and two good running backs.” Receivers Nate Vejvoda, Miles Boykin, Mike Beller, Connor Creed and Matt McNabb all caught passes Friday. So did backs Sean Diehl and Richie Warfield. “Justin puts the ball in the right place all the time,” Vejvoda said. “He and Miles [Boykin] and I have a good connection. We’re been playing together for so long.” Providence coach Mark Coglianese said JCA attempted to minimize Boykin. “They tried to take Miles away,” he said. “That’s OK. We have other guys who stepped up.” With all that firepower, however, the Celtcis weren’t sure what they could do offensively. The reason was an inexperienced offensive line, which combined saw almost no meaningful varsity playing time last season. “The line played well,” Coglianese said. “This is a

big stage. JCA had good returning guys on defense, and our guys held up well. I know they also have guys going both ways, and that might have hurt them. “But except for a few penalties, we’re very happy with our offense.” And, of course, Providence is happy with a defense that limited the Hill-

toppers to 61 rushing yards in 32 attempts. But the good feelings were not limited to the Providence sideline. JCA coach Dan Sharp said “the positives from tonight outweigh the negatives.” From a defensive standpoint, Sharp liked the way the Hilltoppers hung tough under the direction of coordi-

nator Jake Jaworski. “With us holding them to 21 points, that’s really a good job,” he said. “Coach [Jake] Jaworski and the defensive coaches deserve a lot of credit.” From an offensive standpoint, Sharp said, “There were a lot of good things in the passing game, like [wingback] Michael Johnson and Harold Davis and our Mr. Everthing, Nick Borgra, catching the ball.” Quarterback Cade Earl completed 14 of 22 passes for 181 yards. Johnson, Borgra and Davis caught a combined 12 passes, including Johnson’s 39-yard touchdown reception. Sharp feels the running game will come along. However, there was postgame concern over Earl, who was injured in the fourth quarter when he was hit while throwing a pass.

“Justin puts the ball in the right place all the time. He and Miles [Boykin] and I have a good connection.” Nate Vejvoda Providence receiver

“Quarterback is one of the places we aren’t deep,” Sharp said, noting that linebacker Pete Riccolo left with an apparent knee injury in the first quarter. “What couldn’t happen, happened.” So begins the new season. Three of the top four teams in the Herald-News rankings lost Friday, Providence being the only winner. It’s going to be a wild ride.

THORNRIDGE 33, JOLIET CENTRAL 0

Central’s initial night game spoiled By CURT HERRON cherron@shawmedia.com JOLIET – Joliet Central’s football team hoped to snap its 36-game losing streak on the same evening it hosted the first night game at the historic campus. But Thornridge wasn’t in a sentimental mood Friday as it halted its own 28-game losing streak dating back to 2010, claiming a 33-0 victory. The Falcons piled up 273 total yards of offense in the opening half and led, 20-0, when the contest was delayed by lightning for an hour and a half just before the second-half kickoff. Despite the setback, a large and enthusiastic crowd filled the home stands and the atmosphere only grew when the lights were turned on about half an hour into the game. “It was a wonderful night and things went off without a hitch,” Steelmen coach Brett Boyter said. “I give a lot of credit to our school administration for making this happen, the board for approving it and the plan that the ADs put into place with the Joliet Police De-

partment and all of the community support since our community wants this to happen more often.” DaJon Torrence (8 for 20, 206 yards) threw a touchdown pass of 51 yards to Reilly Jackson in the first quarter and had a scoring strike of 63 yards to Nick Gatlin before Cleveland Richardson scored on a 30-yard run during the second quarter. After play resumed, Torrence ran in from 10 yards out and Richardson later scored on a 15-yard run for Thornridge, which finished with 416 total yards. The Steelmen, who finished with 131 total yards, threatened to score in the third quarter after driving 39 yards to the Falcon 2-yard line but the threat ended when they lost a fumble. Michael Robinson rushed for 68 yards on 21 carries, Tommie Sherman had 23 yards on eight attempts while freshman quarterback Zach Wisneski was 7 for 22 for 45 yards. Among the leading tacklers for the Steelmen were Steven Brown-Washington, James Budrick, Dan Gallegos, Anthony Gooch, Malek Harden, Matt Key, Jake Klima, Darius Sanders, Aaryss

Stallings and Cameron Harvey, who also recovered a fumble. While Boyter realized the Falcons’ athleticism provided problems for his squad, he was proud of how they kept battling. And he was impressed with the debut of his freshman quarterback, who seemed to gain confidence as the game went on. “Leading up to the game, you’d think that you might see jitters from Zach, but he was as cool as it gets,” Boyter said. “Whatever pressure he was feeling, he never let it show, and that’s a credit to him and coach (Tony) Juarez for preparing him. And I know that Zach had a lot of trust in his teammates and his offensive line that he would have time to throw. “Thornridge has some very talented players and knew how to get the ball into those player’s hands, and it’s difficult to stop good athletes. But our guys have a lot of heart and pride and they competed. We have great leaders who won’t quit since they’re too invested in the work that they’ve put in. We’ll fix our mistakes and get to work on Rich South.”

TINLEY PARK – In a game of ups and downs, Joliet West showed some spunk in the second half Friday and beat Tinley Park, 20-18. The Tigers built a 9-0 lead on Kyle Kopchak’s 26-yard first-quarter field goal and Alex Tibble’s 20-yard touchdown pass to Kyle Henderson early in the second quarter. But then came a lightning delay, and when it ended, Tinley Park struck for two touchdown drives, one after a turnover, for a 12-9 halftime lead. However, West took the second-half kickoff and drove to score on a 48-yard pass play from Tibble to Henderson, who fumbled the ball at the 1-foot line and recovered it in the end zone for a 17-12 lead. “Our kids did some maturing, coming out when they were down at half and being able to score,” West coach Jason Aubry said. “This shows their fighting spirit. I really like the way they fought back.” Tigers junior running back Jacob Coyl rushed for 103 of his game-high 128 yards in the second half. “During the first half, we wanted to run and pass and open it up,” Aubry said. “The second half we gave the ball to Jacob Coyl and let him follow his blocks.” Tinley Park was not finished, either. Titans quarterback Quinn Kelly hit Salvatore Geraci with a 16-yard touchdown pass for an 1817 lead. However, Kopchak nailed his second field goal, a 24-yarder, with 6:35 left to put West on top, 20-18, and the Tigers escaped by that score. Tibble’s late punt to the 1-yard line put Tinley Park in the hole, and West’s defense did the rest. “It was not the way we drew it up or planned it, but our goal was to be 1-0 after the first game,” Aubry said “We accomplished that goal but we have work to do ... and I will see you in the morning for film and practice.”

Bolingbrook mistakes costly in loss

The Herald-News / TheHerald-News.com • Sunday, August 31, 2014

“We just made too many mistakes, and that’s something we’ll have to get corrected. Penalties and some special teams stuff we’ll have to get taken care of.”

By JASON ROSSI jrossi@shawmedia.com BOLINGBROOK – Tuf Borland may be a high school junior, but he is astute when it comes to the game of football. So after Borland and his highly-touted Bolingbrook football teammates fell 23-15 against Hinsdale Central in the season-opener on Friday night, he had some keen observations. “I think we blew a couple coverages,” Borland said. “Cover four, a guy got behind us, and man-to-man, we kind of blew that, too. When you don’t do your job, it costs you.” The Raiders (0-1) came into the game regarded as one of the top teams in the state, but they were playing catch-up from the onset. They had a punt blocked and returned for a touchdown less than three minutes into the game. Their ensuing possession ended with a failed fourth down conversion after which Central (1-0) struck quickly for a 74-yard touchdown that put the hosts in a 14-0 hole. Bolingbrook battled back to take a 15-14 lead at the half. Adam Klein connected with Neo Armstrong for a 41-yard touchdown late in the first quarter. Julian Huff ran in the 2-point conversion. After a lightning delay halted the

Hinsdale Central’s Dane Miller brings down Bolingbrook’s Jaylen Griffin during Friday night’s game, which the Raiders lost, 23-15. game, Quincy Woods bulled his way into the end zone, and Klein converted the extra point early in the second quarter. Yet a sack on the final play of the first half seemed to be a

sign of things to come for the Raiders. “We just made too many mistakes, and that’s something we’ll have to get corrected,” Bolingbrook head coach

John Ivlow said. “Penalties and some special teams stuff we’ll have to get taken care of.” A 44-yard pass from Matt Rafferty to Ryan Doney put Central ahead 20-15 with 3:02 to

play in the third quarter, and Mark Dykstra’s interception two plays later set up a field goal that made it 23-15 entering the fourth. A failed fourth down conversion and a fumble cut short Bolingbrook’s final two drives of the game. “Our defense came up huge,” Rafferty said. “They held them a couple times and we got to come out and just run the ball to close it out.” Losing a second consecutive home game (going back to last year’s second-round playoff game against Marist) wasn’t what the Raiders had in mind, but they quickly realized one game does not make an entire season. “They’re a good team,” Ivlow said. “We still have to make plays, and we have to sure up some things, but that’s what practice is for, and the most improvement is make from Week 1 to Week 2.”

FOOTBALL: HINSDALE SOUTH 27, ROMEOVILLE 14

Missed opportunities stop Romeoville in opener By DRAKE SKLEBA Shaw Media Correspondent DARIEN – Four trips into the red zone resulting in no points and Mother Nature led to a 27-14 season-opening defeat for Romeoville at Hinsdale South on Friday. After a scoreless first quarter and an early second quarter Hinsdale South score, the bad weather showed up in Darien. With lighting and later torrential rains, the contest for delayed for almost two hours.

Hinsdale South (1-0) scored again three plays after the delay, to open up a 14-0 lead. Romeoville (0-1) took the opening kickoff and then proceeded to go on a six-minute drive to the Hinsdale South four-yard line, before turning over the ball on downs. It would be that kind of a night for the Spartans. Trailing 14-0, Romeoville senior quarterback Kelvin Jones hooked up with senior wide receiver Chuck Hunter from 20 yards out to bring the Spartans within 14-6. Jones

ran for the two-point conversion to bring the Spartans within 14-8 with six minutes in the half. “We moved the ball well all night, but we struggled near the goal line,” said Jones. “I had a good night throwing and running the ball and am I know we will get better.” With Hinsdale South leading 21-8, the Jones-to-Hunter connection converted, this time from 25 yards out, to pull the Spartans to within 21-14 with three minutes to go in the third quarter.

One minute and a half later, Hinsdale South concluded the scoring in the game on a 71-yard touchdown pass from Hornet senior quarterback Robert Regan to 6-foot-7 tight end Josh King to make the score 27-14. “We have a number of weapons offensively, and we just have to put the ball in the end zone more often,” said Hunter. “We have to get better at that.” Jones completed 16 of his 29 passes for 247 yards and two touchdowns. Jones also

rushed for 64 yards on 13 carries. Senior wide receiver Dawson D’lante caught seven passes for 135 yards. Senior runningback Gill Whitaker chipped in with 50 yards rushing on 13 carries for the Spartans. “Our effort was great tonight,” said Romeoville head coach Jeff Kuna. “We won the statistical and turnover battle but just couldn’t put the ball in the end zone. We will get better at that. Kelvin and Chuck did what we expect them to do for us.”

MINOOKA 28, MORRIS 21

By ROB OESTERLE roesterle@shawmedia.com

• Sunday, August 31, 2014

MINOOKA — If Yogi Berra was in Minooka on Friday night, he would have said it was deja vu all over again. No one quite as witty as Berra was around, so most of the comments were of the “You’ve got to be kidding me, not again” variety. The skies threatened to open up midway through the sophomore game before finally clearing and allowing the varsity game to start at 8:30 p.m. By the time it ended three hours later, Minooka had defeated Morris, 28-21, as senior running back Nathan Gunn scored all four Minooka touchdowns and sophomore quarterback John Carnagio threw for 236 yards. Morris took the opening kickoff and marched 65 yards in 6:25, culminating in a 10yard touchdown run by sophomore Keagan Sobol. Minooka answered quickly, as Carnagio connected with Jake Adams for a 42-yard gain on the Indians’ first play. A facemask penalty on Morris gave the Indians 15 more yards and Nathan Gunn scored from 13 yards out. The kick was no good and Morris maintained a slim 7-6 lead. “Sophomore quarterback, first varsity game against a big rival. Why not throw it deep?” Minooka coach Paul Forsythe said. “We knew that Morris would be keying on Nate [Gunn], so we figured a play-action pass would work, and it did. “John [Carnagio] is a heck of a quarterback. You will definitely be hearing more about him in the future. That play really picked us up from that long drive of Morris’ and got us right back in the game.” Morris controlled the clock on its ensuing drive, but was unable to come up with a score in the red zone, turning it over on downs on the first play of the second quarter. Carnagio and Adams combined to get the Indians out of the hole, as they connected 45 yards before the drive stalled at their own 7. Morris got the ball back, but

Gunn helps lead Minooka past Morris

Michael DiNovo for Shaw Media

Minooka’s Nate Gunn (left) rushes the ball past Morris’ Joey Webb on Friday in Minooka. Gunn scored four touchdowns in Minooka’s 28-21 season-opening victory. Minooka forced a three-andout. The punt gave Minooka the ball at the Morris 34, and Gunn scored on a 3-yard run before taking in the two-point conversion to increase Minooka’s lead to 14-7 with 5:57 to go in the first half. Gunn found the end zone for the third time, scoring from a yard out with 1:58 left in the first half, and Minooka took a 21-7 lead going into halftime. Minooka got a 41-yard pass from Carnagio to Eric McMillin after taking over at its own 24, but Morris’ Joey Webb ended the threat with an interception in the end zone to end the half. Jake Walker led the Morris offense with 42 rushing yards, but had precious little room to

run after the opening drive before leaving the game with a sprained ankle. Carnagio hurt the Redskins with his arm, amassing 158 pasing yards, while Gunn ran for 74 yards in the first half. Morris forced Minooka’s first punt on the first drive of the second half and took over at its own 43. Griffin Sobol hit Tommy Ballentine for a 25yard gain and then a 2-yard pass to Keagan Sobol. A personal foul on Minooka put the ball at the Indians’ 15-yard line before the drive stalled on fourth down after Keagan Sobol was stopped at the 1-yard line. “We had two drives stopped in the red zone,” Morris coach Alan Thorson said. “We have to score on those. That’s 14

points right there, and that’s the game for us. But, we also have to do a better job of tackling. Gunn is a heck of a runner and a very physical back, but we have to clean up our tackling. We have some problems we need to fix, but we’ll do it and get back on track.” Gunn then gave Minooka a 28-7 lead after a 44-yard touchdown run. “There’s no better way to start the season,” Gunn said. “Morris is our big rival, and this was my final first game against them. I wanted to leave a mark, and I did. Our whole team did. “Our offensive line did all the work. They made the blocks and opened the holes. I have the easy job, running through those big holes they

made for me.” Morris wasn’t done, as Griffin Sobol hit Keagan Sobol for a 7-yard TD pass with 5:27 to play to make it 28-14. Two minutes later, a snap went over Carnagio’s head and Morris’ Jacob Webb scooped it up. Two plays later, Griffin Sobol hit Webb with a 21-yard touchdown pass and the Redskins trailed, 28-21, with 3:09 to go. The onside kick attempt rolled around near midfield before Minooka’s Victor Turpin fell on it. Morris forced a punt that went into the end zone for a touchback and took over at its own 20 with 1:21 to play and no timeouts. Facing fourth-and-10, Griffin Sobol nearly had a first down, but was tripped up by Luke Brozovich.

FOOTBALL: LINCOLN-WAY CENTRAL 14, SANDBURG 7

Studer leads Knights to win over Sandburg By TIM CRONIN Shaw Media Correspondent ORLAND PARK – For Lincoln-Way Central, Friday night’s opener with Sandburg was worth waiting for, even if Central’s 14-7 victory wasn’t final until nearly four hours after kickoff. A lightning delay of 1 hour, 52 minutes accounted for the delay. The Knights’ Sean Studer accounted for the thunder. The 6-foot senior ran for two touchdowns and 118 yards on 31 carries in a game that Central dominated, Sandburg’s single touchdown aside. “This is past my bedtime,” Studer said. But not past his capabilities. He had 10 yards on three carries before the break, but chatted with his offensive line. “Their linebackers are big,” he told his guys. “Get out there and truck ’em.” They did. The holes opened, and Studer dragged defenders along as well. Central’s first scoring drive was a 58-yarder on 10 plays, with Studer ending it with a 4-yard plunge with 4:47 left in the first half. Studer scored on a 19-yard fourth-down dash through traffic on Central’s first series of the third quarter. That made it 140, and, given the way the Knights’ defense was throttling Sandburg, it appeared to be enough. It almost wasn’t. The Eagles, while held to 13 rushing and 67 passing yards, put together one drive that ended with quarterback Avery Verble’s 1-yard plunge with 4:10 left in the third. The score was acceptable, but the execution gave Knights coach Hud Venerable pause. “We didn’t play consistently well, sporadic from series to series. It was a bits and pieces attack on offense tonight,” Venerable said. “Special teams were OK. But we’ve got a lot of things to work on.” Quarterback Connor Campbell was 8 of 14 for 81 yards and ran for an additional 53. The best part of the game was that it concluded, albeit at 11:48 p.m. The delay was called when lightning was sighted at 8:01 p.m., with 8:14 left in the scoreless first quarter. The storm rolled through quickly, but lightning from a storm over La Porte, Ind. caused officials to tarry in resuming the game. Once they did, Central picked up where it left off. “Not like last year, when we played Sandburg on Saturday,” Studer remembered. “That (stunk).” A win is a win, but a win on the opening Friday of the season is that much sweeter.

FOOTBALL: DOWNERS GROVE NORTH 31, LOCKPORT 20

Lockport can’t stop Edwards, DG North in season opener By JEFF DEGRAW Shaw Media Correspondent Lockport’s senior quarterback Jeremy Quade ran 66 yards to the Downers Grover North’s five yard line on the first offensive play for the Porters on Friday. Then he capped off the drive with a 1-yard touchdown run Saturday evening to take a 6-0 lead with 6:08 to go in the first quarter. The game had been postponed because of lightning Friday night and the game resumed Saturday evening. However, that Porter lead was the last of the night as the Trojans claimed a 31-20 win. The Porters had to deal with 6-foot-8 Wisconsin-bound quarterback David Edwards, who ran for 177 yards on 24 carries and scored three touchdowns. “He falls forward for three to four yards every carry,” said firstyear Lockport coach Dan Starkey about Edwards. After the Porters took the 6-0 lead, Downers North came right back with a 66-yard drive, with Edwards gaining 50 yards on five carries, to take a 7-6 lead with 2:18

remaining in the first quarter. Lockport came right back down the field on a 19-yard pass from Quade to Jon Zapotoczny and a 27-yard run by Quade to get to the 7-yard line of Downers North. But two running plays for one yard, an incomplete pass and a fourth-down scramble by Quade that lost 12 yards put the ball back in the Trojans’ hands. A seven running-play drive by Downers Grove North led to the second Edwards touchdown on a 2-yard run giving the Trojans a 14-6 lead. Lockport had two drives stall before Downers Grove North got the ball back with 3:23 to go in the half and drove 65 yards, aided by a horse collar penalty. Edwards scored again with 15 seconds to go in the half to take a 21-6 lead. After the Trojans scored early in the third quarter to take a 28-6 lead, the Porters put together a nineplay, 80-yard drive, capped off with a 12-yard touchdown pass from Quade to Sean Kelley in the right corner of the end zone, making the score 28-12. Downers kicked a 21-yard field goal to make it 31-12 and Lockport

ended the scoring on another nineplay drive finished off with a 2-yard run by Quade, who also converted the two-point conversion. Quade ended the night with 15 carries and 100 yards and was 14 for 20 passing with 145 yards. “We just have to improve on the little things, both offensively and on the defense,” Quade said. “It was tough to have to come back today, because we had so much momentum last night. We will be all right, this is fun and we want to ‘Bring it Back.’ ” “Jeremy and I work on our routes and we have known each other a long time,” said Zapotoczny, who finished with seven catches for 74 yards. Starkey said he is so happy to be the football coach at Lockport and was proud of the effort his team gave. “The kids are learning a new system with new coaches, we have to clean up the mistakes, we had opportunities, but I’m certainly proud of this team with the effort they gave,” Starkey said. The Porters open the home season and play on the new turf Friday at 7 p.m. when they host Lake Park.

JOLIET – Lemont overcame a lightning delay and a tough Plainfield South defense to make coach Bret Kooi a winner in his debut for the Indians who defeated the Cougars, 17-7, on Friday. The opener between the Indians (1-0) and the Cougars (0-1) started late because lightning delayed the start of the sophomore game. The varsity contest made it to the 4:41 mark of the first quarter before lightning delayed it for nearly 45 minutes. Lemont scored with 6:29 left in the second quarter to take a 7-0 lead when quarterback Chris Thompson ran the ball in from the 13 on a keeper. South tied the game at 7-7 with three seconds left in the first half when defensive end Eric Johnson forced a Thompson fumble, which was picked up and returned 25 yards for a score by fellow lineman Brenton Dickson. The halftime adjustments Lemont made proved to be the key in the second half. “We knew the first game was going to be a tough one for us. Our offense came out a little flat in the beginning of the game, but we adjusted pretty well at halftime and in the sec-

ell Ganassin intercepted two passes, while Jake Portz and Duvonte Hunt recorded sacks. “We have a young defense, and without question, they brought an extreme amount of energy and urgency and they made plays on a consistent level,” Cougars’ coach Ken Bublitz said. “We knew how good Nagel was because we played him last year [Nagel attended Marist as a junior, and Marist defeated South in the 8A playoffs last season]. We knew what he was capable of doing. He’s a tremendous athlete and a tremendous player. We did everything we could defensively to win the game. Offensively, we sputtered.

Seneca defeats Dwight in opener

Special teams key Warriors’ win

The Herald-News / TheHerald-News.com • Sunday, August 31, 2014

SUBMITTED REPORTS SENECA – Field position was a big part of the story Friday night at Seneca, however a touchdown pass on a late fake field goal might be all that is remembered. The Irish defeated Dwight in the season opener, 14-7. After junior Casey Pifer broke off a 24-yard run on Seneca’s first offensive play of 2014, the Fighting Irish did not gain another first down until more than six minutes had passed in the third quarter. At the 1:50 mark of the second quarter, Dwight’s Jack Davidson ran in a 13-yard touchdown. Dwight led 7-0 going into halftime. Seneca tied the game when Zach Russell scored from two yards out on a fourth-and-1 quarterback sneak with 2:39 left in the third quarter. With seconds remaining in the game, the score remained 7. Facing fourth-and-9, junior Peter Hogue lined up to seemingly attempt a 33-yard field goal. Holder Arik Applebee stood up as he caught the snap and lofted a pass that Tyler McKinney grabbed in the right corner of the end zone.

Coal City 27, Reed-Custer 13: The Coalers beat the Comets in Friday’s season opener. Leading the way for ReedCuster were Mason Dransfeldt, who was 6 or 10 for 110 yards passing and had 13 carries for 100 yards rushing, which included a 71-yard scoring run. Austin Hauck also caught a four-yard TD pass from Dransfeldt. Other leading rushers for the Comets were Don Vercelote (four carries for 49 yards) and Brad Smith (11 attempts for 46 yards).

By EDDIE CARIFIO ecarifio@shawmedia.com SYCAMORE – At times football can be a subtle game, with nuances that decide the game not being detected by coaches until they see film. Sometimes, a team blocks two kicks and returns another for a touchdown and it’s obvious. Special teams powered Lincoln-Way West to a 14-13 win Saturday night, a continuation of a game Friday that was postponed because of lightning with 1:33 left in the first quarter in a scoreless tie. “It’s like half a yard away from going into the end zone, then they get it at the 20,” Sycamore coach Joe Ryan said Kurtis Flondor’s 99-yard kick return with 4:06 left in the contest. “They just got through the seam. We had some guys that were cramping, so we had some different guys in there and they were split.” The Spartans (0-1) took the lead 14 seconds earlier on a 2-yard plunge up the mid-

dle by Brett Weaver, normally the team’s linebacker. He played a lot in the second half in the backfield for the Spartans, who were without normal starting back Dion Hooker – although it was unclear if it was an injury or if he was one of the seven Sycamore players suspended for the first two weeks of the year. But the snap was high on the PAT and Tyler Maveus’ kick was blocked by senior Nate Paniak. Warrior coach Dave Ernst said Paniak was the spark for the Warriors (1-0) on Saturday night – he had blocked a field goal on the previous drive. After the block, Flondor took the kick from almost as close as the goal line as possible, straight up the middle. The extra point gave the Warriors the one-point lead. Sycamore had trouble throwing the ball all game, and the Warrior defense pressured quarterback Brett Bemis on the final drive, sacking him twice. Ryan elected to punt with 1:12 left

facing a fourth and 20 from his own 10. “If we’re closer, yeah, but we were 14 yards away, 15 yards away,” Ryan said. “I don’t have a lot of those in the playbook. I though if we could hold them, we could maybe get something going. It was the decision I made.” After their first two drives – one Friday night, one Saturday – went three-and-out, the Spartans put together a scoring drive early in the second, capped on a 4-yard naked bootleg by Bemis. The Warriors tied the game in the third when Dino Borrelli was about to get sacked by Weaver, but threw of his back foot and found Joe Shirley in the end zone for the tying score. Shirley had six receptions for 69 yards as the Warriors only completed 10 passes in the game. Borrelli started Friday night under center, but Connor Lowman played the second quarter. The Warriors got 70 total yards from Borrelli and 26 from Lowman, and Borrelli played the sec-

ond half. Ernst said the plan was to play both sophomores for a quarter and let the one playing better play more. “Tonight, Dino performed better, next week maybe Connor,” Ernst said. “Next week, who knows?” Bemis struggled throwing the ball, completing two of nine passes for 34 yards. He has a 35 yard screen pass to Trace Hefler that set up the first touchdown. Bemis ran for 68 yards on 21 carries, while Weaver had nine carries for 36 yards. “If we need to change some things up, I’m not afraid to do some different things,’ Ryan said. “I thought that gave us the best opportunity to win in the second half.” Sycamore beat the Warriors twice last year, the only losses Lincoln-Way West suffered. “I know they had some adversity, but I know down the road our paths will probably cross again,” Ernst said. “They’re a very good team and they are going to make a run in this area, and hopefully we make a run in ours.

FOOTBALL: MARMION 26, PLAINFIELD CENTRAL 7

Plainfield Central falls to Marmion in opener By SCOTT A. EHLING Shaw Media Correspondent PLAINFIELD – Marmion broke open a 6-0 halftime lead with three third-quarter touchdown scores en route to a 26-7 victory over host Plainfield Central in both teams’ season openers Friday. The Cadets started all five of their third-quarter offensive possessions inside the Wildcats 50 yard line. Conversely, the Wildcats went three-and-out on their first five offensive possessions in the second half. The start of the game was delayed 45 minutes because of lightning. Senior running back Noel Abraham had seven carries for 61 yards and two touchdowns while teammate Lucas Warren led the Cadets with 64 yards rushing on 12 carries and a touchdown.

Senior running back Akwasi Aikins led the Wildcats with 11 carries for 20 yards and a touchdown. “I thought we had a good gameplan going into it and thought that we were able to identify some tendencies of theirs,” Central coach John Jackson said. “We were just on the field too long when it came down to it.” Marmion (1-0) took the opening kickoff and, on their first possession, put together a 13-play, 67-yard drive that culminated with a Noel Abraham 2-yard touchdown run that gave the Cadets the early 6-0 lead with 7:29 left in the first quarter. After each team traded three-and-out possessions, Central quarterback Matt Gurke (13 for 32, 163 yards) connected with wideout Sebastian Perhon

down the sidelines for what appeared to be a 60-yard pass play. However, Cadet defensive back John Tate stripped the ball from Perhon that resulted in Marmion taking over on their own 20 yard line. “The play of the game was Johnny Tate,” Marmion coach Dan Thorpe said. “He let his man get by him but then tracked him down and had the presence to do the strip drill that we work on.” Central (0-1) went three-andout on their first two offensive possessions in the second half. After squandering their first possession inside the Wildcats 40-yard line, the Cadets struck quickly as Sean Campbell scored on a 24-yard touchdown run to extend the lead to 12-0 with 7:06 left in the third quarter.

Subsequently, the Cadets defense forced another threeand-out by Central, and two plays later, Abraham essentially broke the game open scoring on a 47-yard touchdown run that extended the Marmion lead to 19-0 with 5:27 still remaining in the third quarter. Warren would score on a 2-yard touchdown run just before the end of the quarter to push the lead to 26-0 that effectively put the game out of reach. Aikins would later score on a 3-yard touchdown run with 6:10 left in the game to get the Wildcats on the scoreboard at 26-7. “We had a great kickoff return to start the second half but then had a holding call against us, and we never made it out of our end in the entire third quarter and that hurt us,” Jackson said.

Providence Catholic’s Rachel Alles sets the ball Saturday against Plainfield Central at the Plainfield North Invite.

PLAINFIELD NORTH INVITE

Providence beats hosts for third place at tournament By KAITLYN JASNICA kjasnica@shawmedia.com Similar stories landed Providence Catholic and Plainfield North girls volleyball teams fighting for third place at the Plainfield North Invite, where the Celtics wound up beating the Tigers, 25-14, 25-13. Both teams won every match going into Saturday, but faced tough quarterfinals. Downers Grove South tested Plainfield North. After losing the first game, 25-17, the Tigers stormed back to win the second game, 25-13. What happened next was the most nail-biting game of the day. The Tigers and Mustangs fought point for point, and when Kaitlyn Fisher buried a ball down line, Kaitlyn Vondra found a seam in the block to place her hard shot. At the end of the match, the

Tigers were on top, 26-24. Fisher and Allie Lindroth left the match with nine and six kills. Morgan Smith helped limit the Mustangs’ offensive success with 15 digs. One court away, Providence and Plainfield Central also battled in a close threegame match. Both teams have a young, energetic team, but the difference in the quarterfinal was easy to see. The Celtics were consistently in system with good serve-receive passing. They also helped keep the Wildcats out of system by serving eight aces. “Anytime you have a smaller team like we do, you have to learn how to serve, serve-receive and be smart about placement of the ball,” coach Rachel Ellingson said. “We’re not big. We’re not going to hit over people. So we have to look

at the other side of the net, look at defenses and play more strategically than a power game.” Emily Boggetto led the Celtics against Central with 11 kills and seven digs. Setter/ rightside hitters Rachel Alles and Liza Ellingson also helped the Celtics with eight and six kills and 15 and eight assists, respectively. Providence’s strengths made Plainfield Central struggle. When the Wildcats were in system, the offense dominated. Erin Eulitz and Elizabeth Hyland led the team in kills with 13 and 11. Ashley Shook had 30 assists. But Providence kept them out of system enough to help the Celtics win, 25-22, 17-25, 25-22. “Our pin hitters looked very good with Erin Eulitz and Elizabeth Hyland,” coach Erik Vogt said. “They both had a high number of kills in

that match. We have to work on serve-receive and serving. Those were our weak points today. Our youth really showed in that match.” After winning close quarterfinal matches, Providence and Plainfield North struggled. The Plainfield North-Sandburg match tested different styles of volleyball. Plainfield North appears to focus on perfect form and control while Sandburg focuses on hard-hitting and scrappy defense. The first game was close, but Sandburg ended up winning, 25-22. The second game started off 4-0 in favor of Sandburg before Fisher put down her first kill. Sandburg sided out immediately. Lindroth came back with two kills that she swung over the block. The game remained close until Julia Borschel was

left with only one blocker, bounding the ball straight into the middle of the court where no defense could reach. Tiger coach Tracey Marshall called a timeout to regain momentum but the Tigers could not stop Sandburg’s offense. Sandburg won the second game, 25-16. In another gym, Providence faced the same situation; it was not playing like it had during the first match. Lincoln-Way North defeated Providence, 2521, 25-16. “We did not pass well in the second game,” Ellingson said, “therefore none of the other things were there for us.” Both teams won in three during quarterfinals and they also lost in near identical scores during semifinals. But only one team could win third place, which went to the Celtics.

JOLIET SLAMMERS 9, FRONTIER GREYS 8 (11 INN.)

Slammers rally to beat Greys in 11th for third consecutive victory By CURT HERRON cherron@shawmedia.com JOLIET – The Joliet Slammers put themselves in a good position to claim a third straight victory Saturday when they took on the Frontier Greys. Joliet overcame an early 2-0 deficit to moved ahead at 4-2 through five innings. But Frontier got a run back in the sixth and scored four times in the eighth to take a 7-4 lead. But the Slammers scored two runs apiece in the eighth and ninth, while the Greys got a solo homer in the ninth and the squads were even at 8 through going into the 11th inning.

The hosts won it with a run in that 11th to claim a 9-8 Frontier League win. Matt Costello, who picked up the win on Friday, came in as a pinchrunner for Russell Moldenhauer in the 11th and scored the game winner on a single by Josh Scheffert. That made a winner of David Kubiak, the Slammers’ sixth pitcher of the evening. The Greys grabbed a 2-0 lead in the first on Joe Rapp’s two-run homer. But Joliet got a run back in the third when Adrian English scored on a sacrifice fly by Adam Giacalone (two RBIs). An inning later, the Slammers moved in front, 3-2, when JD Dorgan homered to left to

bring in Scheffert. Joliet went up, 4-2, when Giacalone scored after a double by Moldenhauer, who had missed the past eight contest due to an injury. The Greys cut the lead to 4-3 in the sixth and then tied the score in the eighth on a wild pitch. They moved ahead, 7-4, following a pair of errors. After Chris Epps (three RBIs) doubled home Moldenhauer and Granger in the eighth, the Greys got another home run from Rapp in the ninth.

But the Slammers forced extra innings when Giacalone doubled home DeBruin and then Epps drove in Giacalone with a sacrifice fly. On Friday, the Slammers rallied from a 3-0 deficit by scoring six times in the seventh inning to capture a 6-3 win over the Greys. English drove in two runs while Giacalone and Scheffert each went 2 for 4 to lead the way for the Slammers. In the decisive seventh, Max Casper drove in Epps

with a sacrifice fly, Scheffert came home on an error and then English singled home Seth Granger and Adam Lewis. After Grant DeBruin singled in English, he scored the final run on an infield out. Costello went the first seven innings to collect the win while Kubiak didn’t allow a hit during the last two innings to pick up the save. Joliet hosts the Greys in their final Sunday game of the year with a 5:05 p.m. start.

No Chase for Stenhouse if he doesn’t win By TIM CRONIN

Gordon says Stewart could run strong in Atlanta The ASSOCIATED PRESS HAMPTON, Ga. – Jeff Gordon is expecting Tony Stewart to be a contender in his return to the track. Kevin Harvick will be on the pole but Stewart, who will start 12th, will be in the spotlight in the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series race Sunday night at Atlanta Motor Speedway. Stewart is competing for the first time since the sprint car he was driving struck and killed 20-year-old Kevin Ward Jr. in an Aug. 9 race at a dirt track in upstate New York. Gordon was impressed when Stewart ran close to 190 mph in practice. Stewart was a bit slower in qualifying at 187.907. Still, Gordon said Friday that Stewart “may make quite a return.” Gordon and other drivers said the return to racing will provide therapy for Stewart, who was visibly emotional, with his voice breaking, as he read a prepared statement Friday. “I do think that the best thing for him is to be in that race car,” Gordon said. Said Harvick, Stewart’s teammate at Stewart-Haas Racing: “Being in that car cures a lot of problems for a short time.”

Shaw Media Correspondent JOLIET – Someone asked Ricky Stenhouse Jr. about the sophomore jinx the other day. He laughed, rightfully so. Stenhouse is in his second year on the Sprint Cup circuit, but it’s not like he only jumped into stock car racing in 2013. At 26, he’s been in national series for seven years. He won in ARCA, where many young racers start, in 2008. He won Nationwide Series championships in 2011 and 2012, collecting eight victories. He’s been around (and around and around) the oval block. While he has eight top-10 finishes in Sprint Cup races and took the pole for last year’s race in Atlanta, what he hasn’t done yet in NASCAR’s top series is win. A victory Sunday in Atlanta or next Saturday night at Richmond would lock in him in for the Chase, NASCAR’s answer to team-sports playoffs, which begin Sept. 14 at Chicagoland Speedway. At 27th in the season standings going into Atlanta – one spot ahead of girlfriend Danica Patrick – Stenhouse has no shot at making the Chase in his Roush Fenway Racing-prepared Ford Fusion on points. He needs to win a race.

“We’ve had some really good and some not-so-good runs,” Stenhouse said of his season between runs in a recent test session at Chicagoland. “Last year, my average finish was better, but there were not so many top 10s.” Entering Atlanta, Stenhouse has five top 10s, including a runner-up placing in the spring race in Bristol, Tenn., in the first 24 races of this season. Last year, his first of three top 10s came at Richmond. (He ran eighth at Chicagoland.) He can’t trace the inconsistency to one particular reason, but he recognizes it. Those five bottom-10 finishes, including a pair of 41sts, stand out. “We just got behind,” Stenhouse said. “This isn’t a sport where you can overcome things in one week. Jack (team owner Jack Roush) isn’t happy. We’re not happy. “We have not run near expectations this year, but we’re trying to finish on a strong note.” That’s what brought Stenhouse to Chicagoland for the test session. The hope was that some of what was gleaned from two days of running the 1.52-mile track would not only pay off when his team, which includes Greg Biffle and the departing Carl Edwards, races here, but also at Atlanta, a dissimilarly-shaped 1.5-mile oval recognized

as the fastest mid-sized track on the circuit. “For sure,” Stenhouse said. “Turn 3 and 4 here are rougher than other 1½-mile tracks because of bumps, but Atlanta has major bumps as well. That’s why we scheduled this test for right now.” They found little on the first day – “If this was race weekend, we’d be struggling a bit,” he said – but improved before a thunderstorm stopped proceedings temporarily on the second day. The goal was to get the car to run around the bottom of the track, for, as Stenhouse noted, if it can do that, it can also run in the top lane if necessary. The reverse is not necessarily the case. It’s not like he can’t win on a 1.5mile circuit. His last Nationwide triumph was at Kansas in 2012, a near-duplicate of Chicagoland. Roush Fenway Racing’s resources are deep. Stenhouse figures it’s just a question of keeping at it, on and off the track. “It’s tough,” he said of this season, “but you’ve got to keep going. You’ve got to be upset about it. I’ve spend a lot of time and effort hanging out at the shop this season, supporting the crew, though still not near as much as I’d like to. “Things are going in the right direction.”

Lunt era begins with win for Illini

The Herald-News / TheHerald-News.com • Sunday, August 31, 2014

By JASON LANGENDORF For Sun-Times Media CHAMPAIGN – The Wes Lunt era at Illinois didn’t start with a bang so much as a rattat-tat. And perhaps the Illini should count themselves lucky even for that. It just as easily could have begun with a thud. But after following a decidedly unambitious game plan and limping through several mistakes in the first half of the home opener Saturday, the Illini raised the sort of ruckus they had intended to all along, pulling away from Youngstown State in the fourth quarter for a 28-17 victory at Memorial Stadium. The hope was that Lunt, Illinois’ prized transfer (by way of Oklahoma State), instantly would build on having run away with the team’s training-camp competition with a strong debut. Instead, the Illini coaching staff seemed to forget to pull out the choke on the offense. Although Lunt was fairly sharp from the jump, an odd mixture of hurry-up offense, lopsided play-calling (18-8 pass-run ratio) and paintby-numbers passing routes wound up handcuffing the sophomore from Rochester, Illinois. “We’ve got a bunch of new wide receivers, and we’ve got a

Illinois quarterback Wes Lunt (center) throws the ball during the second quarter against Youngstown State on Saturday at Memorial Stadium in Champaign. new quarterback in there,” Illini coach Tim Beckman said. “You’re right. We ran a lot of smash corners and a lot of hitch routes into the sidelines. I think it was just [creating] comfort for him [before] taking some strikes.” The result: By halftime, Lunt had completed 11 of 18 passes, but the Illini had just seven points and 129 total yards. Meanwhile, the Pen-

guins had just two field goals in the first half, though they also dispensed generous helpings of a varied run game (32 run plays in the half). After the break, Tim Banks’ leg-wearied defense went from bending to breaking a bit too often, missing tackles and contributing its share of horribly timed penalties. “The first three quarters weren’t anything like what we

wanted to be as a football team, from coaching down to playing,” Beckman said. But just when Banks’ long-maligned defense began to lose its footing, Lunt – behind more galvanized pass protection and the faintest threat of a run game – began to loosen up, stretch the field and laser-guide his passes to increasingly wide-open receivers. Beckman and Lunt

attributed the turnaround to improved pre-snap reads and simply shaking off opening-day jitters, rather than any significant adjustments in offensive coordinator Bill Cubit’s approach. “I agree with coach Cubit’s play-calling, and it’s whatever he wants to do,” Lunt said. “We had what we wanted [early in the game], we just didn’t execute very well. Also, I’ll adjust to the line. If they bring the blitz, I’ll try to protect myself. Or if the defense is in a certain coverage that we like a route in, just check the route.” Lunt indeed saw more blitzing from YSU late, and he reacted in spectacular fashion. With ample time from his blockers and a steady rhythm established, he fired touchdown passes to three receivers in the fourth quarter, including a 15-yarder to running back Josh Ferguson for the goahead score. “It’s a ‘W,’ ” Beckman said. “It wasn’t a pretty ‘W.’ It’s something we can definitely learn from, but it’s a ‘W.’ ” Lunt finished 24 for 38 with 284 yards, four touchdowns and no interceptions – and some much needed momentum going into a suddenly intriguing matchup next Saturday with a Western Kentucky team that had 59 points and 702 yards Friday.

COLLEGE FOOTBALL: CALIFORNIA 31, NORTHWESTERN 24

Northwestern struggles in season opener against California By SETH GRUEN For Sun-Times Media Northwestern looked a lot like it did last year in a, 31-24, season-opening loss to California on Saturday. The only difference was how it happened, which was even more alarming than the lategame mishaps of 2013. The Wildcats started incredibly slow, mainly because of Cal’s game plan. The Golden Bears used a two-quarterback system that took Northwestern by surprise. True freshman Luke Ruben-

zer shared snaps with incumbent starter Jared Goff. Rubenzer carried 11 times for 48 yards. “The two-quarterback thing was something we had no idea because obviously that’s the first time they’ve ever done that,” Wildcats coach Pat Fitzgerald said. “So credit Cal. Great plan for them. They did a great job with the element of surprise.” Goff played well in his debut last season against the Wildcats in Berkeley, throwing 64 times. But it was unlikely the Bears would be as pass heavy in their second meeting with North-

the team was alerted to the possibility of Cal’s change in play-calling with their new quarterback. He said they made adjustments immediately after Rubenzer’s first drive. But it was clear that the possibility had been drilled only minimally, if at all, in practice. “I was surprised,” middle linebacker Collin Ellis said. “They ran the ball well. They executed well, and once we made some adjustments, we were able to put out the fire that they started. But, yes, schematically, they kind of got us off a little bit.”

“Everett Golson was electric. He kept his eyes down field. He knew when to run. He knew when to throw it.”

By TOM COYNE The Associated Press

Brian Kelly Notre Dame football coach traveled nearly 60 yards in the air. Fuller was in a full sprint and wide open and needed to slow down to catch the pass near the 25-yard line. Fuller then made Rice safety Julius White miss as he raced into the end zone. It was the longest TD pass for Notre Dame since 2010. The 53-yard touchdown pass was a little better timed as Golson scrambled and threw a perfect pass to a wide-open C.J. Prosise in the end zone with 5 seconds left in the half, giving the Irish 28-10 lead. Golson was hit hard just after throwing the pass. Rice coach David Bailiff said Golson is amazing in his ability to extend plays. “We left our corner on an island for too long and he got separation.

Sims was 24 for 33 for 250 yards and added 42 running, playing the entire opener at the Georgia Dome. The fifth-year senior beat out Florida State transfer Jake Coker for the start. Tide coach Nick Saban had sug-

gested both quarterbacks would play, but Sims never came out. Yeldon (126 yards rushing and two touchdowns), Henry (113 yards rushing and a score) and Cooper (12 catches for 130 yards) provided plenty of support. Alabama (1-0) needed all the offense it could get because West Virginia (0-1) found plenty of soft spots in the Tide’s D.

UCLA defense help Bruins escape with win CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. – UCLA scored three defensive touchdowns before Brett Hundley led them on a critical second-half

scoring drive and the No. 7 Bruins escaped Virginia, 28-20. Hundley, widely regarded as one of the nation’s top quarterbacks, was harassed all day by Virginia’s (0-1) pressure defense, and made the biggest play of the day for UCLA (1-0) with his feet. It came on a 6-yard touchdown run late in the third quarter when he overpowered safety Quin Blanding on a 6-yard TD run.

Missouri’s Mauk solid against South Dakota St. COLUMBIA, Mo. – Maty Mauk threw for 178 yards and three touchdowns.

Mauk seemed at ease early, finding receiver Darius White crossing behind the Jackrabbits’ defense for a 44-yard touchdown pass just 50 seconds into the game. The Tigers (1-0) extended their lead to 21-10 at halftime and never trailed. Zach Zenner rushed for 103 yards and two touchdowns on 17 carries for South Dakota State (0-1), who fell to 0-7 against FBS teams since moving to Division I in 2004.

Standford rolls in home opener against UC Davis STANFORD, Calif. – Ty

Montgomery returned his first career punt for a touchdown and caught five passes for 77 yards and another score, and the No. 11 Cardinal (1-0) tuned up for a date with No. 15 Southern California next week. The All-American kick returner, who was cleared by team doctors to play earlier this week after offseason surgery on his right shoulder, looked ready to be the Cardinal’s do-it-all playmaker again. He ran his first punt back 60 yards for a TD and lined up all over the field, including once as a wildcat quarterback.

SOUTH BEND, Ind. – Everett Golson looked better after a year off than he ever did in helping Notre Dame get to the national championship two seasons ago. In his first game back after missing last season for academic impropriety, Golson threw touchdown passes of 75 and 53 yards and became just the third Notre Dame quarterback to run for three touchdowns in a game as the No. 17 Irish beat Rice, 48-17, on Saturday. “Everett Golson was electric,” coach Brian Kelly said. “He kept his eyes down field. He knew when to run. He knew when to throw it.” Golson was 14 of 22 passing for 295 yards and ran for 41 yards on 12 carries. He threw the ball away on purpose three times and three other times Irish receivers dropped passes. His only big mistake was a pass early in the second quarter that Rice safety Gabe Baker should have intercepted but dropped. Golson said it was the type of comeback he envisioned while spending a semester away from Notre Dame. “That’s what inspired me through all the training and all the days of me just working out by myself. I think that’s what helped me get through it,” he said. Because of privacy laws, No-

cent days. “There’s a lot of things that he will tell you that he’s got to continue to improve on, but there’s a confidence that he carries with him that is starting to emanate, and that’s going to only get better and better as he gains more confidence,” Kelly said. Driphus Jackson, making his second career start at quarterback for Rice, was 13 of 24 passing for 163 yards and one touchdown and the key interception. “I’ve just got to be better managing the ball, and understand it’s OK to throw the ball away,” Jackson said. “I don’t have to try and make plays all the time.” Rice backup quarterback Tyler Stehling threw a 53 yard TD pass to James Mayden later. Notre Dame was playing without five players on its roster, including three starters. The group is being investigated for possible cheating. But the Irish haven’t let it affect them, Kelly said. “They care about their teammates. That’s clear. But they also know that they are here at Notre Dame to get a degree and to play for Notre Dame and represent Notre Dame on the football field. So they have been really focused on their job and going out there. They have been really purposeful every single day.”

BEARS ANALYSIS

Bears cut roster to final 53 In surprise move, team keeps four running backs, three quarterbacks By JEFF ARNOLD jarnold@chicagofootball.com

and KEVIN FISHBAIN kfishbain@chicagofootball.com The Bears used the majority of their allotted time Saturday to get their roster down to 53 players, waiving 14 players and terminating the contracts of three vested veterans. But the players coach Marc Trestman elected to keep as the Bears prepare for the season opener against the Bills next weekend may have been as big of a story as who was let go. After much discussion over who would be Matt Forte’s primary backup at running back, the Bears elected to keep four backs on the roster. While rookie Ka’Deem Carey and Shaun Draughn were considered the primary candidates to relieve Forte, undrafted rookie free agent Senorise Perry also made the final 53-man roster, providing the Bears with a full contingent of running backs. In also what was viewed as a minor surprise, the Bears will start the season with three quarterbacks. After Jimmy Clausen edged Jordan Palmer as Jay Cutler’s backup, rookie sixth-round draft pick David Fales was expected to be a solid choice for the expanded 10-man practice squad. But after a solid preseason finale performance against the Browns on Thursday night in Cleveland, Fales – who was considered by many as a long-term project after the Bears drafted him – grabbed a spot on the 53-man roster Among the veterans released Saturday were offensive tackle Eben Britton, cornerback Kelvin Hayden and defensive end Austen Lane. Safety M.D. Jennings also was waived with an injury settlement.

With Williams waived, the Bears are set to open the season with Micheal Spurlock and Santonio Holmes as their primary returners. Holmes, who was signed after training camp, had an impressive 30-yard punt return against the Browns. Even so, the Bears likely will examine other options on waivers Sunday. Britton missed almost a month with a hamstring injury suffered early in camp. He played in 22.2 percent of snaps last season, mainly as a Monica Maschak – mmaschak@shawmedia.com sixth offensive lineman.

White Sox, Tigers split games By PAUL LADEWSKI The Associated Press CHICAGO – Kyle Ryan pitched six scoreless innings in his major league debut, and the Detroit Tigers salvaged a split of Saturday’s doubleheader against the White Sox with a potentially costly 8-4 victory. Tigers slugger Miguel Cabrera pulled up lame while running out a grounder in the fourth inning, forcing him from the game. The All-Star has been dealing with a sore right ankle. In the opener, Chris Sale struck out a season-high 13, beating Max Scherzer in a matchup of All-Star aces and leading the Sox to a 6-3 win. Ezequiel Carrera, Don Kelly and Ian Kinsler each had three hits for Detroit in the nightcap. Ryan (1-0) allowed five hits and walked two. In his third at-bat, Cabrera hit a smash up the middle that glanced off pitcher Chris Bassitt and rolled several feet behind the mound. Bassitt was able to retrieve the ball and throw out Cabrera on what should have been a close play. Rajai Davis scored on the groundout to cap a

The White Sox scored four times in the eighth. Avisail Garcia had a run-scoring fielder’s choice before Dayan Viciedo hit a three-run homer off Joba Chamberlain. But the Tigers put it away with three runs in the ninth. J.D. Martinez hit a sacrifice fly and Alex Avila and Don Kelly added RBI singles. Promoted from Double-A Birmingham prior to the game, Bassitt (0-1) allowed five runs and seven hits in 61⁄3 innings in his major league debut. Sale (11-3) struck out at least 10 for the 17th time in his career, tying Hall of Famer Ed Walsh for the franchise record. The lanky left-hander reached that figure in 81 major league starts – Walsh made 312 for the White Sox from 1904-1916. Sale allowed three runs and six hits in seven innings. Jake Petricka pitched the ninth for his 10th save. Adam Dunn hit a two-run homer and Tyler Flowers also went deep against Scherzer (15-5), who fanned 11 and walked none in 62⁄3 innings. But he was touched up for six runs, five earned, and nine hits in the makeup of a June 10 rainout.

He had been out with a strained right calf since Aug. 1, two days after the Cubs acquired him from Boston, where he was 2-4 this season. “We were hoping he’d be very efficient today and he was,” Cubs manager Rick Renteria said about Doubront’s 89-pitch effort. “He was very impressive. That’s a pretty good lineup. He did a nice job

The last-place Cubs hit four home runs Friday, giving them seven in two games against the Cardinals. “It’s about the same thing we talked about yesterday,” St. Louis manager Mike Matheny said. “It’s a team that’s really capitalizing on the home run. They’ve got a nice thing going over there.” It’s not going so well for the Cardinals. St. Louis has lost four in a row for the second time this season.

WNBA EASTERN CONFERENCE FINALS: GAME 1 – FEVER 77, SKY 70

Quigley gets Sky’s lone 3-pointer in loss to Fever By JASON HADDIX The Associated Press INDIANAPOLIS – Briann January scored 19 points and Shavonte Zellous added 18 to help the Indiana Fever beat the Chicago Sky, 77-70, on Saturday night in the opener of the Eastern Conference finals. Indiana took a 60-48 lead into the fourth quarter, but the Sky stormed back with a 14-3 run to open the final period and pulled within one. Allie Quigley, a Joliet Catholic graduate, had five points during the burst, including the lone 3-pointer made by the Sky. The Sky then missed their

next six shots, allowing Indiana to build separation as Zellous hit a pair of 3’s to put the game away. Sylvia Fowles led the Sky with 20 points and 14 rebounds. Elena Delle Donna and Quigley added 14 apiece. I n d i a n a trailed the Sky only in the first Allie Quigley two minutes of the game. Game 2 will be in Chicago on Monday.

Jeff Larentowicz’s cross found Earnshaw in the center of the box, and Earnshaw’s twisting header in the 83rd minute deflected past goalkeeper Raul Fernandez for the difference-maker. A quiet first half saw the Fire’s Grant Ward earn a yellow card in the 10th minute for a dangerous tackle. In the 39th minute, Dallas’ Fabian Castillo broke free down the left off a long feed and fired, but goalkeeper Sean Johnson turned away the left-footed attempt with a sprawling save. In the 52nd minute, Ryan Hollingshead’s spinning, left-footed attempt got past Johnson, but ricocheted off the crossbar. The Fire’s Lovel Palmer had a quality attempt in the 56th minute, but his left-footed shot from long range was gobbled up by Fernandez. The Fire improved to 5-6-14, and Dallas fell to 12-8-6.

someone in need was worth it, said Hulbert, formerly of Joliet and president of the club’s newest chapter in Memphis, Tennessee. “It was quite a pleasure to see a child get a bicycle for Christmas when he might not have gotten one, except for Brothers of Soul,” Hulbert said. Although the joy of riding – as well as sharing that joy with like-minded individuals – is still the club’s foundation, a blog extolling the benefits of exercise on the home page at its website at www. bosmc.com certainly reflects an aging membership. Little reminders also reflect the times. For instance, the notice of the for the 2014 37th Annual National Bikers

to perpetuate club functions, the Brothers of Soul has no membership drive or plans to initiate one. “We don’t just accept everyone. We have criteria,” Sims said. “We don’t want people coming in and causing problems. We make sure there no criminal backgrounds. We don’t want that kind of activity around. We’re just a bunch of old guys, laid back.” Just three 100-mile radius runs a year are mandatory for continued membership in any of the chapters, but many members plan shorter trips every week, Sims said. For instance, it’s a club tradition to meet in Danville for Father’s Day weekend. On Memorial Day, the brothers

Hulbert drove from Memphis to Joliet for the 40th anniversary picnic Aug. 23 and then drove back. Even a flat tire didn’t daunt him, nor did he feel the ride was too long. “It’s in my 500-mile radius,” Hulbert said with a grin. He was hooked from the very first ride, he added, when he was 24 years old. “It was good to fly down the road and feel the wind in my face.” The three additional chapters – in Aurora, Georgia and Tennessee – were all started by former members of the Joliet chapter, Sims said. Although these men had moved to a new location, they wanted to stay connected with their Joliet brothers and extend club benefits to poten-

in an official clubhouse, which they own. The clubhouse offers a social alternative to clubs and bars, said Jodie Shaw, Sims’ fiancee, who assists with club secretarial duties. The clubhouse is a place where members and their friends can listen to music, play cards and host fundraising event, Shaw said. Disorderly conduct is not allowed, Shaw added. “Everyone just comes and has fun,” Shaw said. The Brothers of Soul’s clean brand of fun, along with some curiosity of the biker lifestyle, led Shaw, who once lived near the clubhouse, to attend a Christmas dance. She was amazed at their

dedication to helping others and just had to participate in some way, Shaw said. Sims added with a chuckle, “She was surprised how well we looked when we cleaned up.” These days, Sims is enjoying a different kind of biking, which leaves less time for impromptu motorcycle day trips. He’s spent the summer helping his 8-year-old granddaughter, Ayris Davis of Iowa, ride a two-wheeler. “Now that she can ride it herself, she still wants her Papa to walk down the street with her,” Sims said. “She says, ‘Come on, Papa, you’re going too slow.’ ”

District 202 plans more Common Core community forums this fall 53 PLAINFIELD – District 202 will host four special community forums about the new Common Core State Standards for learning that District 202 continues to implement this school year. This will be the third round of community forums since last fall to help parents and community members understand the significant change facing students, staff and District 202 through the Common Core learning standards.

This fall’s forums will focus on the new English Language standards being implemented this year; the first round of Common Core standardized testing scheduled for next spring; and the overall status of the Common Core, which has faced political backlash in recent months. One forum will be held in each district “House.” Community members are welcome to attend any forum that is convenient for them, regardless of their House. There is no admission and light refresh-

ments will be served. Each forum will start at 7 p.m. The forums will be hosted at: • Wednesday – Indian Trail Middle School (Green House) • Sept. 10 – Drauden Point Middle School (Blue House) • Sept. 24 – Heritage Grove Middle School (Red House) • Oct. 1 – John F. Kennedy Middle School (Orange House) As well, the September 3 presentation will be recorded and posted on the District 202 web site for parents who cannot attend any of the four public programs.

Illinois is one of 45 states that adopted the Common Core State Standards. The CCSS are national learning expectations created by governors and state education leaders. The CCSS will replace the current state learning standards in math and English Language Arts, and, eventually, science and social studies. District 202 implemented the CCSS math standards last year. The first round of standardized assessments for both

math and English will be given next spring. The CCSS will be one of the most significant changes to public education in many years. The new learning expectations are more challenging and in-depth than the current standards. Some initial “learning gaps” therefore are expected between grades and lower initial standardized test scores as students transition to the new system among other challenges.

High school freshmen participate in Give Something Back Foundation LOCKPORT – In April 2013, Give Something Back Foundation announced a new prefunded scholarship program that will be open to freshmen students attending traditional high schools in Will County. Selected high school freshmen will participate in activities to prepare them for college and then attend college, free of charge. The recipients may choose among University of St. Francis in Joliet; Lewis University in Romeoville; and Blackburn College in Carlinville. Through the prefunding of student scholarships by GSBF and financial generosity by the partner schools, students will have the opportunity to

attend college at no cost, said Steve Cardamone, GSBF executive director. On May 8, a dinner was held at DiNolfo’s in Homer Glen to welcome and celebrate the freshmen that were chosen from the participating high schools this fall. The following area students will participate in the program:

PUZZLES CROSSWORD

SUDOKU

BRIDGE by Phillip Alder

Do not lose sight of the defense’s goal

CELEBRITY CIPHER

Louis Pasteur, a French 19th-century chemist and bacteriologist who created the first vaccines for anthrax and rabies, said, “Let me tell you the secret that has led me to my goal. My strength lies solely in my tenacity.” This week we have been looking at active and passive defense. But also while the defenders are wondering whether to go after tricks or to sit back and wait for declarer to donate them, they must not lose sight of their target: the number of tricks they need to defeat the contract. In this deal, South is in four spades. How should East defend after West leads the heart king? West opened with a weak twobid, showing a good six-card suit and 5-10 high-card points. East applied the Law of Total Tricks. (When your side does not have the high-card values for game, bid to the 10-trick level with 10 combined trumps.) He hoped to silence the opponents, but South had enough to overcall four spades. (Whenever the opponents pre-empt to four hearts, intervene with a bid of four spades with any reasonable excuse.) East, when seeing two losing hearts in the dummy, should not thoughtlessly encourage with his seven. South will happily ruff West’s heart continuation, draw trumps and run the diamonds. East knows that West has six hearts and, therefore, that South has only one. And dummy’s diamond suit is threatening. East should actively overtake the heart king with his ace and shift to the club queen. Here, this works perfectly, resulting in four spades one down instead of one over.

NEW YORK TIMES CROSSWORD

The Herald-News / TheHerald-News.com • Sunday, August 31, 2014

ADVICE Engaged man shares money with mom Dad’s drinking drove Dear Abby: I’m a 22-year-old college student. My boyfriend of seven years and I are engaged. Because we were high school sweethearts, we have watched each other grow into the people we are today. For the most part, I’m very proud of the person he has become. When I quit my full-time job to continue my education, he stepped up to support me. I never asked for it, nor did I expect it from him.“Liam” is very frugal. (“Cheap” might be a better word.) I never understood it because he makes enough money to support us both and put plenty into savings. However, I recently learned that every payday, his mother calls, and he goes to her house and gives her money. It wouldn’t bother me if she was ill, unemployed, etc., but she’s well-off and earns a

DEAR ABBY Jeanne Phillips good living. Abby, what concerns me is that while Liam is 24 years old, he has a shared bank account with his mother. She seems to call him only on payday, EVERY payday, without fail. She also seems to have more control of his spending than he does. He won’t pay his bills without first consulting her. She was very clear when she told him he had spent too much on my engagement ring. I don’t want to come between Liam and his mother, but I’m not sure I can marry them both. Do I have a right to be concerned with this matter? – Frugal Fiancee in Florida

Dear Fiancee: You and Liam need to have a frank talk about money. There may be a reasonable explanation why he gives his mother money every payday. (She may invest it for him.) But you’ll never know if you don’t ask. While “Mama” may not have been overjoyed at the amount her son spent on your engagement ring, it appears she did approve his chipping in for your education, so she’s not what I’d call a miser. That said, I cannot stress enough how important it is for you and Liam to be on the same page when it comes to finances and how decisions will be made after your marriage. Premarital counseling covers subjects like this. • Write Dear Abby at www. dearabby.com.

Chronic subdural hematomas can heal slowly Dear Doctor K: My mother is in her 70s. She fell a few weeks ago but seemed fine. Then she started to have double vision and some trouble with balance. A CT scan revealed a subdural hematoma. Her doctor advised only bed rest and medication. Does this seem reasonable to you? Dear Reader: A subdural hematoma (or hemorrhage) occurs when blood vessels near the surface of the brain burst. Blood collects beneath the dura mater. That’s the outermost layer of the brain’s protective covering. (I’ve put an illustration of a subdural hematoma on my website, AskDoctorK.com.) Most subdural hemorrhages result from trauma to the head. In some cases, blood accumulates rapidly after injury, putting pressure on the brain and causing symptoms within just a few days. This is an “acute” subdural hemorrhage. It can cause loss of consciousness, paralysis or even death. It usually requires emergency surgery to drain the hematoma and control bleeding. Other times, as in your mother’s case, bleeding may develop over weeks or even months. If symptoms begin more than two weeks after the head trauma, it’s called a “chronic” subdural hematoma. The symptoms your mother experienced – double

ASK DOCTOR K Anthony L. Komaroff vision and trouble with balance – are typical. Other symptoms can include headache, nausea and vomiting, memory loss, and weakness, numbness or tingling in the arms and legs. Although subdural hematomas can occur at any age, they are most likely to occur in people your mother’s age. That may be because blood vessels are more fragile as people reach their 70s. Sometimes, chronic subdural hematomas develop without any head trauma at all –ß or at least without any head trauma a person remembers. I once had a patient with a subdural hematoma who had no memory of any head trauma. Later, his wife remembered that he had banged his head walking into the edge of a partially opened door at night. Some conditions can cause subdural hematomas that occur without any head trauma. Weakness in artery walls can cause them to start leaking blood. Certain types of cancer that spread to the brain’s protective covering also can cause bleeding. Treatment is based on symptoms and the size of the hemato-

ma. A doctor can determine the amount of bleeding from a computed tomography (CT) scan or a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan. If your mother’s hematoma is small and has caused only minimal symptoms, then it’s reasonable for the doctor to recommend bed rest and medications. The medications should help control swelling and prevent seizures. Symptoms should improve as her body gradually reabsorbs the blood. The doctor should carefully monitor your mother during treatment. If your mother’s hemorrhage was larger or was causing more severe symptoms, a doctor would likely recommend surgery. Most people who have a chronic subdural hemorrhage eventually get back to normal. With any brain injury, however, symptoms can be slow to go away after treatment. And some symptoms may be permanent. Hopefully, your mother will recover on her own, as her doctor thinks she will. If so, she will most likely not experience permanent symptoms.

mom to her grave

Dr. Wallace: I’m 19 and in love with a wonderful guy who is four years older than I. We are totally compatible and he confesses to love me more than any girl he has ever gone out with. This guy treats me like every girl in the world would like to be treated. He has a college degree and has a good job working in a large bank. The only concern I have is that he consumes a lot of alcohol. He says that he enjoys alcohol, but that he has his alcoholic intake under control. This guy has asked me to marry him, but I haven’t yet given him my answer. The reason is that I don’t want to marry a guy with a drinking problem. My father was an alcoholic and he made my mother’s life miserable almost every day of her life. She died at age 43, and I feel it was my father’s drinking that drove mom to her grave. I don’t want my life to be ruined by an alcoholic partner. I am a 100 percent nondrinker. How can I tell if this guy can control his alcohol or if he is in the early stage of becoming a full-blown alcoholic? Any information will be deeply appreciated. – Nameless, Reno, Nevada Dear Nameless: It’s extremely difficult to predict what way a consumer of alcohol will go. While working with teens who had severe psychological problems at Healthcare Medical Center in Southern California, I had the opportunity to observe the 12 questions being asked of teens who suspected a sibling or parent might have a serious drinking

’TWEEN 12 & 20 Robert Wallace problem. The following questions were asked: 1. Has the person stayed home from school or work more than once because of drinking? 2. Does the person drink to feel more confident or to build self-esteem? 3. Does the person drink alone? 4. Does the person drink to escape problems? 5. Does the person feel guilty after being drunk? 6. Does it bother the drinker if someone accuses him of drinking too much? 7. Does the drinker need alcohol when stressed? 8. Has the drinker lost friends because of his or her drinking? 9. Has the drinker ever been arrested for being under the influence? 10. Has the drinker ever been obnoxious and ruined a special occasion? 11. Does the drinker feel a sense of power or well-being when drinking? 12. Has the drinker ever felt the need to apologize for his behavior after drinking? Each question that requires a yes answer is a warning signal of a problem in the making. If the person answered yes to three or more questions, it was agreed that there’s a definite problem with alcohol and treatment was prescribed. • Email Dr. Robert Wallace at rwallace@ galesburg.net.

The weapons of choice for Dochi (Ha Jung-woo) in the Korean period drama “Kundo: Age of the Rampant” are two meat cleavers, the tools he used while working as a butcher.

Korean history gets the cleaver in ‘Kundo: Age of the Rampant’ By MARK JENKINS Special To The Washington Post For Western audiences, Korean period dramas can require too much historical knowledge or rely too heavily on patriotic fervor. Neither is a problem with “Kundo: Age of the Rampant,” a mid-19th-century escapade whose electric-guitar flourishes announce its irreverence. Director Yoon Jong-bin’s principal interests are rollicking combat scenes and rousing underdog triumphs. The movie’s narrative backdrop is genuine. The late Joseon Era was known for corruption among the aristocracy, and poverty and hunger for nearly everyone else. Bandit clans called “kundo” were common, and some of them had the Robin Hood-like ethic of the group celebrated in this tale. The history lesson pretty

much stops there, however. The movie owes less to real events and more to Chinese kung fu flicks – yes, there’s a battling monk – and Akira Kurosawa’s classic “Seven Samurai.” And the Ennio Morricone-derived score is just one echo of the spaghetti westerns that also inspired “The Good, the Bad, the Weird,” a 2008 Korean romp. Like that film, “Kundo” combines dynamic action sequences with swaggering humor. The earthy dialogue may seem a little forced in subtitled translation, but the well-choreographed bedlam is freewheeling. Some of it borders on slapstick, although the movie is too bloody to be termed a comedy. The first half of the morethan-two-hour tale introduces a bewildering number of characters. Ultimately, though, the movie becomes a grudge match between two men

who’ve been wronged in very different ways: baby-faced villain Jo Yoon (Kang Dong-won) and well-meaning roughneck Dochi (Ha Jung-woo). Both suffer because of their origins. Jo Yoon is the son of a nobleman, but his mother was a courtesan. For a time, he’s the only male heir, so his father accepts him. When a rival is born, Jo Yoon is displaced. That’s when he starts plotting of the deaths of various relatives, including a pregnant woman. Dochi is a butcher, a member of Korean society’s lowest caste. When Jo Yoon offers him a job as an assassin, it seems like a step up. But Dochi balks at murdering a mother-to-be, so Jo Yoon sends thugs to punish him. He escapes, badly burned, and joins the kundo. Where a samurai-style hero might brandish two swords, Dochi attacks with a cleaver

in each hand. Dochi’s getaway is a turning point both for him and the movie. In its second half, “Kundo” becomes robust and exhilarating. The filmmakers stage cast-of-dozens battle scenes and one-on-one showdowns with equal brio. When it opened in Korea last month, “Kundo” set a box-office record, only to have it toppled seven days later by the equally bold and brutal “The Admiral: Roaring Currents,” a 16th-century naval epic. Both are fine examples of the energy that today’s Korean cinema is drawing from the past.

• “Kundo: Age of the Rampant” received two-anda-half stars out of four. The film is unrated and contains violence, torture, partial nudity and profanity. It is in Korean with subtitles and runs 137 minutes.

BEST BETS ± 6:30 p.m. ESPN NASCAR Racing: Only two races remain before the Chase for the Sprint Cup, thus heightening the pressure to score points. That should certainly be the case today at Atlanta Motor Speedway, where a field including Dale Earnhardt Jr., Jeff Gordon, Jimmie Johnson and Matt Kenseth will vie in the Oral-B USA 500. Kyle Busch took the checkered flag last year on the 1.54-mile quad-oval, after holding off a fast-closing Joey Logano on a 21-lap green-flag run to the finish.

± 8 p.m. ABC 7 2014 MDA Show of Strength Telethon: What used to be an almost 24-hour broadcast on Labor Day Weekend, televised by various network affiliates, is now a two-hour event exclusively on ABC. While it may be much shorter, its mission is still to present information on — and seek donations for — muscular dystrophy research. Among performers slated to appear this year are Rascal Flatts, Jason Derulo, Aloe Blacc, LeAnn Rimes and Fall Out Boy. Segment presenters include Jordin Sparks and Tom Bergeron.
