VIEWS Kate Schott Looking through the pages of our publication the next few days, readers may wonder if Veterans Day or Memorial Day is approaching. Today’s cover story is about building projects in the Joliet area that are providing housing for homeless veterans. The planned cover story for Monday’s edition is coverage of World War II days, scheduled for this weekend in Lockport. It’s encouraging to see this community embrace veterans and recognize the sacrifices they have made. Those who honor our country by serving in the military should not be forgotten; sadly, that has happened all too often in America’s past. But not by all: On Monday, the Abraham Lincoln Memorial Honors Thursday Squad is making sure 64 people who

were all but forgotten receive the honors they deserve. The Abraham Lincoln National Cemetery has scheduled its quarterly military honors for 9 a.m. Monday in Committal Shelter C. The ceremony includes a Mass honoring 64 veterans who are considered direct burials – that is, their remains were dropped off by funeral directors or delivery services, and interred without receiving honors. There are a number of reasons for that. Some had no next of kin. Others were homeless. Honors will be provided to 24 who served in World War II, 10 in Korea, 22 in Vietnam and eight during peacetime. A bell will be rung after each name, branch of service and period of service is read. The public is welcome to attend.

Speaking of not forgetting ...

In this space on May 25, I wrote about the Vietnam Veterans Memorial Foundation project, “Faces Never Forgotten,” which wants a photo of

Vietnam veterans from Illinois to use in its electronic “Wall of Faces” in the new education center at the Vietnam Memorial Wall. In May, there were 34 people from Will County without a photo, and five from Grundy County without one. As of Friday, it was 28 in Will County and three in Grundy County still without a photo. I’d still love to get all of our local military members on that wall. Learn more at www.vvmf.org/ Wall-of-Faces.

Sheriff’s honor guard will present colors at Bears game By BRIAN STANLEY

bstanley@shawmedia.com CHICAGO – The Monsters of the Midway will begin the 2014 football season with help from Will County’s finest. Four officers on the Will County sheriff’s honor guard are set to present the colors at the start of Sunday’s Chicago Bears game against the Buffalo Bills. The honor guard appearance came about because a friend gave Det. Jeff Tolbert skybox tickets for the preseason game against the Jacksonville Jaguars on Aug. 14. But when Tolbert was unable to go, he gave the tickets to the honor guard commander Lt. Dorris Jordan. Jordan and her husband, Ed, a retired deputy who started the honor guard in 2002, ended up sitting next to

Will County sheriff’s honor guard commander former Bear Shaun Gayle and struck up a conversation. “I don’t remember the name of Shaun’s friend,” Dorris Jordan said. “But we were talking about the Bears and the honor guard and I just asked. His friend had the

events coordinator come over and I gave her my card.” Two weeks ago, the team called Jordan to ask if the honor guard wanted to participate. She said selecting representatives from the 16 squad members was extremely difficult, although giving Tolbert a slot was an appropriate way to repay him for the preseason tickets. Sgt. Rick Laib, Sgt. Jim Holuj and Deputy Terry Bergin will go with Tolbert to present the flags. Deputies Harold Toong and Henri Wright will also attend the game as alternate members. Jordan said the honor guard has practiced drills “intensely” during evenings last week in the parking lot of the sheriff’s headquarters. “We’ll be good,” Jordan said. “And Ed and I got tickets. We wouldn’t miss this.”

the properties from a bank for $375,000 – a little more than a third of the original asking price of $962,000. The buildings were in disrepair, with only three tenants among the more than two dozen units available. Huminsky has gutted and fixed up the Oneida and Center street properties, which contain 14 units. Plans to develop five brick row houses on Hickory Street, which could contain up to 16 units, have stalled with the city’s zoning board of appeals since May over density issues.

bwimbiscus@shawmedia.com JOLIET – Aisha Bailey gave 22 years of her life to the U.S. Army, culminating in Operation Desert Storm, where she served as a captain. Since retiring in 2006, she’s battled two new enemies: Gulf War Syndrome and homelessness. Bailey receives treatment at Edward Hines, Jr., Veterans Administration Hospital for the debilitating illness destroying her skeletal system. But finding somewhere to live after losing her Joliet home six months ago has proven more elusive. Bailey sought assistance through the Veterans Administration and several other government agencies. Through them, she learned her situation was atypical. “I wasn’t homeless because of drugs, alcohol or addiction,” Bailey said. “I was scammed out of my house, and they wouldn’t help me.” While Bailey’s situation was unusual, the VA’s handling of her case was routine, said Christopher LaFayelle, co-founder of the private advocacy group Veterans Housing and Employment Assistance. Because of huge caseloads, coupled with adherence to procedure and bureaucratic inefficiency, government agencies often take months to resolve a case, if at all, LaFayelle said. VHEA sidesteps the red tape by directing veterans elsewhere for assistance, he said. “If the VA is not helping, we have the ability to find solutions through other agencies,” LaFayelle said. “We had three cases just this week where people were turned down by different agencies. They came to us and for each

one I got them housing in a week after they had been in the system for six months.” VHEA found Bailey and her husband, Charles, an apartment in the 300 block of Oneida Street in Joliet.

Veteran housing developments

The building is one of a group of four on Oneida, Hickory and Center streets being

rehabbed as low-income housing for veterans by Patriot Partners Development Group. Bailey is the fifth veteran to find a home there in the past couple months. Scott Huminsky, a Shorewood rehabber who flips houses, founded Patriot Partners last year after meeting LaFayelle at an investors meeting. Huminsky said he was impressed by VHEA’s

Geographic Information System, which locates properties to develop for veterans, primarily based on access to services. Huminsky liked the idea so much that he partnered with VHEA, agreeing to dedicate the four-building project to veterans, and to use only veteran labor to rehab the buildings. Huminsky said he bought

Another large veterans housing project, held up by the city for more than a year because of density concerns, is moving forward. Volunteers of America Illinois, a nonprofit group developing the 67-unit Hope Manor on the former campus of Silver Cross Hospital, is awaiting funding, said Adonya Little, VOA Illinois’ vice president of finance and compliance. Little said the group expects notice later this fall on equity tax credit funding and a federal loan necessary to finance the project. “As far as we know, we still are on track with all of our funding applications,” Little said. Construction could begin as early as spring 2015. The impetus for the influx of veterans housing is the Homeless Veterans Outreach Initiative, part of President Barack Obama’s pledge to end homelessness among veterans by the end of 2015. “The initiative opened up multiple revenue streams for veteran housing,” LaFayelle said. Chief among them is a

Parents face the fright of West Nile diagnosis Case still under investigation

Take action To minimize your risk of being infected by West Nile, state health officials recommend taking the following steps: • Reduce: exposure by avoiding the outdoors when mosquitoes are most active, especially between dusk and dawn. Make sure doors and windows have tight-fitting screens and repair or replace those with tears or openings. Eliminate all sources of standing water where mosquitoes can breed, and change water in bird baths weekly. • Repel: mosquitoes when outdoors by wearing shoes and socks, long pants and a long-sleeved shirt. Apply insect repellent that contains DEET, picaridin, oil of lemon eucalyptus or IR 3535, according to label instructions. • Report: to whomever handles mosquito control activities in your area areas of stagnant water in roadside ditches, flooded yards and similar locations.

fsarver@shawmedia.com LOCKPORT – Steven Kuhn felt helpless. Kuhn, of Lockport, said his son, Kyle, became sick in early August. He watched over the next few weeks as his son’s ability to walk and talk weakened. He was sent to Silver Cross Hospital in New Lenox for a day and a half, and then to a Chicago hospital. It was there that Kyle was diagnosed with West Nile virus, which is commonly spread by mosquitoes. Federal health officials are still investigating the case and have yet to confirm it is West Nile virus. But the doctor’s diagnosis, along with Kyle’s symptoms, convinced his parents. A pediatric dentist by trade, Kuhn knew how bad Kyle’s illness could get. However, he couldn’t help him – he could only hope his son would recover. “It’s one of the scariest things I’ve ever been through in my life,” he said. “I hope nobody ever goes through this. This was all from a mosquito bite.” Kyle is now recovering and may fully recover in the next six to 12 months, Kuhn said.

Lathan Goumas – lgoumas@shawmedia.com

Kyle Kuhn, 9, does a balancing exercise Thursday with his mother, Kathy Kuhn, at the family’s home in Lockport. Kyle was diagnosed in mid-August with the West Nile virus and suffered equilibrium problems as a result. He does balance exercises daily and attends physical therapy once a week as part of his recovery. After seeing his son endure an almost life-threatening case of West Nile virus, Kuhn wants to alert others to its dangers. He said he would hate for other people’s children to end up like Kyle. “This is in my backyard. This is a mosquito who came into my backyard … most people look away,” he said. There are no confirmed cases of humans contracting West Nile virus in Will County this year, said Vic Reato, spokesman for the Will County Health Department. Even though Kyle was diagnosed with West Nile virus at Ann & Robert H. Lurie Chil-

dren’s Hospital of Chicago, the case is still under investigation by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, he said. Confirmation of the case could take weeks, Reato said. Will County has recorded 18 mosquito samples positive for West Nile virus since for 2014 as of Friday, according to the Illinois Department of Health, as well as one bird that tested positive for the virus. This year, two cases of people affected by West Nile virus were reported in the state, with no deaths, according to the IDPH. Last year, that number was 117, with 11 deaths. In

Source: Illinois Department of Public Health 2012, there were 290 cases with 12 deaths. The virus is commonly transmitted by house – or culex – mosquitoes, which thrive in hot or dry weather. A mild case of West Nile infection may cause slight fevers or headaches. Symptoms are usually evident between three to 14 days. But more severe infections can cause high fever with body aches, tremors, convulsions, paralysis or death. In Kyle’s case, the infection led to him becoming severely sick and needing multiple medical tests. Kuhn said his son’s illness even affected his mental abilities, as he would have random conversations after waking up in the middle of the night. “Not only were we getting

concerned but the doctors were getting concerned,” Kuhn said. There was fear Kyle would lose his vision and his ability to walk. But after the treatments he received, Kyle is slowly recovering and getting physical therapy. Reato said people should always protect themselves from West Nile virus when they’re outside. Although not a popular protection during the summer, wearing long sleeves and long pants is recommended, Reato said. The Will County Health Department also recommends using insect repellent containing DEET or other compounds that deter mosquitoes. “We always encourage people to take preventative measures,” Reato said.

Maya murder trial slated to start Monday in Feb. 13 slaying By BRIAN STANLEY

bstanley@shawmedia.com JOLIET – Jurors will hear about the text messages and other relationships of Erick M. Maya, the man accused of killing his teenage girlfriend in her Romeoville driveway. Judge Robert Livas held hearings Thursday and Friday to resolve what evidence will be admissible in Maya’s trial, which is expected to begin Monday with jury selection. Maya, 24, is charged

with murder in the Feb. 13 slaying of Brianna Valle, 15. Two other teenage girls will be allowed Erick M. to testify about Maya meeting Maya through Facebook, but not that they had a sexual relationship with him, Livas told Assistant Will County State’s Attorney Chris Koch. Livas also barred a text “threat” Maya allegedly

sent one of the teens. “But the witness can testify regarding statements [Maya] made about the victim,” Livas said. Livas also allowed prosecutors to present text messages between Maya and a friend who allegedly supplied the gun used to shoot Valle and her mother. Prosecutors plan to use a transcript of the text conversations in books that will be given to jurors as witnesses testify. Defense attorney

George Lenard said such a presentation will improperly emphasize a piece of evidence. “It’s too distracting to have books they can flip pages back to when they’re supposed to pay attention to the testimony going on,” Lenard said. But Koch argued jurors are given notebooks in every case and nothing keeps them from referring back to anything they write down, and Livas agreed. Brianna, and her mother,

Alicia Guerrero, were leaving their residence in the 300 block of Emery Avenue when Maya allegedly came up and opened fire into their car. Brianna, a Romeoville High School student who previously dated Maya, was shot in the head and died four days later. Guerrero was shot in the neck but survived. The Valle family had an order of protection against Maya after he allegedly threatened to rape and kill the teenage girl.

Reed-Custer teacher killed in crash with semi on Route 47 By HEIDI LITCHFIELD

hlitchfield@shawmedia.com MORRIS – Jessica Bennett was known for her “angelic voice” and love of others, especially the children she taught at Reed-Custer Primary School where she was a pre-K teacher. “She touched a lot of families,” Superintendent Mark Mitchell said. “She was an amazing young teacher.” He said the district is heartbroken over the loss of Bennett, who was pronounced dead at Good SamarJessica itan Hospital in Bennett Downers Grove due to multiple injuries sustained after she was involved in a collision with a semitrailer Thursday night at Routes 47 and 113. Mitchell said Bennett, of Morris, will be deeply missed by the Reed-Custer School District. “Just to know her, you know she had a heart of gold,” Mitchell said. “She was getting married, and loved people. We are heartbroken over the whole thing.” Bennett, the daughter of James and Nancy Bennett, previously taught preschool at Gardner Grade School. “Jessica always had a smile. She was kind-hearted, happy-go-lucky, with a unique sense of humor,” her obituary reads.

Bennett was a 2007 graduate of Morris Community High School, where she participated in the theater program. “Jessica’s talent and beauty graced our stage many times,” said MCHS Drama Club sponsor Andrea Gustafson. “Redskin Drama has a heavy heart today as we learned of the loss of one of our own.” Emergency responders were called at 9:10 p.m. Thursday to the intersection of Routes 47 and 113 for a report of a collision. “[Bennett] was westbound on 113 and came to a stop at the stop sign and then proceeded where she was hit by a tractor-trailer,” Grundy County Sheriff Kevin Callahan said Friday morning. Morris Fire Protection and Ambulance District Chief Tracey Steffes said responders were able to get the driver free quickly and took her to Morris Hospital. Bennett was then airlifted to Good Samaritan Hospital. Her family and fiancé were by her bedside at the hospital, according to her obituary. Investigation of the crash has been handed over to Illinois State Police because a semitrailer was involved, Callahan said. Visitation for Bennett has been scheduled for 4 to 8 p.m. Tuesday at Immaculate Conception Church in Morris. A Mass of Christian Burial is scheduled for 10:30 a.m. Wednesday at Immaculate Conception Church.

Plainfield restaurant has menu for dogs, too By VIKAAS SHANKER

vshanker@shawmedia.com PLAINFIELD – Stacy Matson is a regular at Moe Joe’s, a restaurant in downtown Plainfield. But since late May, her 4-year-old black Labrador Hudson has gotten a taste of the Cajun-style restaurant, too. That’s when Moe Joe’s owner Stuart Littell introduced the dog menu to pet-owning customers of the Plainfield eatery, 24033 W. Lockport St. “We’ve taken him a couple of times when downtown isn’t that busy,” Matson said. “It’s a really fun thing to do. And we have two little boys who think it’s so funny. It’s very cute.” Littell said the dog menu introduced at the beginning of the summer has been a hit, with the restaurant averaging about 10 dogs a day. “In the beginning, it was more people that were walking their dog who came,” he said. “But now, people are coming for the experience of dining with their dogs.” The dog menu consists of the Scrappy Sac, an appetizer beef bone with chopped carrots, several meals and the Doggie Dessert, a frozen beef marrow bone that promotes good health and cleaner teeth. Littell said all the menu items are certified and organic, containing no preservatives, hormones, chemicals or genetically modified in-

Meals can be eaten outside the restaurant in the patio area, or bagged to take home. Prices on the menu range from $3.50 to $8. And 10 percent of all proceeds go to Plainfield’s Helpsavepets.org no-kill animal shelter. Littell said the most popular meals are The Hipster Hound with ground Angus beef, chicken-flavored rice and cheddar, and the Grain Free Good Boy with a choice of beef or grilled white chicken with chopped carrots and bacon. Matson feeds Hudson The Hipster Hound. “The food is great for humans, but I think the dog menu is a smart idea,” she said. “Everyone is kind of into their pets right now. It’s a big

thing. I hope the idea spreads to other places here.” Littell said he and his wife thought of the idea after the second of their two dogs died and they started searching for another companion. “We thought about getting a larger dog, a German shepherd,” Littell said. “When summer approached, a change of thoughts happened. We thought, wouldn’t it be cool if we had a whole menu for dogs?” The meals give the dogs breaks from their usual munchies. And they can socialize with other dogs. “Even people who don’t have dogs spectate,” Littell said. “It’s really fun for people to familiarize with the dogs, maybe seeing what kind of dog they would want.”

LOCKPORT – Business restrictions in downtown Lockport were approved last week with the goal of preserving the area’s historic nature and creating a commercial climate that will draw people. The Lockport City Council unanimously approved the zoning amendment at its Wednesday meeting. The new ordinance does not allow loan shops and contractor operations within the downtown historic district, which extends between Seventh Street and 11th Street on the east and west sides of State Street. Contractor shops are busi-

nesses with indoor storage or repair operations. The ordinance also consolidates thrift or resale shops into a single classification called “secondhand retail stores.” Those stores would still be allowed in the area but require a special-use permit. Lockport Mayor Steven Streit said some people had concerns about the ordinance but the city’s goal was to tighten zoning classifications in its historic downtown district. “We’re trying to find the most appropriate use for that place in town,” he said. Second Ward Ald. Kelly Turner, who voted for the ordinance, was initially skeptical of the idea as he feared it would limit the way business-

es operate in the city. Past city committees were heavy-handed in their approach to improving the downtown area, he said. But his concerns were put to rest after speaking with city staff. “I said, basically, I’m a small government person. I’m not in favor of big government. After I talked to them, my fears were subsided,” he said. Turner said he recommended that the city also allow all restaurants and bars to have tables and chairs on the sidewalks to create a more lively atmosphere downtown. “I would just love to have people filling up the sidewalks so it doesn’t look like a ghost town,” he said.

kschott@shawmedia.com MINOOKA – Detours are planned during overnight hours this week for those traveling east and west on Interstate 80 near Minooka, so new bridge beams can be installed at Minooka Road. The new beams – for the bridge at Minooka Road over Interstate 80, approximately two miles west of the Minooka interchange – will be erected, weather permitting, starting Monday, according to a news release from the Illinois Department of Transportation. The work is scheduled for 9 p.m. to 4 a.m., with all through traffic on I-80 being detoured around the work zone during these hours, according to the news release. Preliminary work involving lane closures may be performed prior to the start of scheduled work. The detour routes and dates are as follows: • I-80 Westbound: Detour to be used Monday to Sept. 12. All traffic will exit at the Minooka Interchange (exit 122) and will be directed to travel north on Ridge Road to Route 52, then west on Route 52 to Route 47, then south on Route 47, where motorists can get back on I-80 in Morris. • I-80 Eastbound: Detour to be used Monday and Tuesday. All traffic will exit at the Bris-

classes. She said the city’s new policy was agreeable. “We need to do anything we can to perk up our area,” she said. “Loan offices – they’re not perky.”

IDOT encourages motorists to use “extreme caution when traveling along the detour and are advised to be alert for flaggers and all other workers,” the agency said in the news release. This work is part of the $6.99 million contract awarded to “D” Construction of Coal City for replacement of the Minooka Road structure and other associated work. The entire bridge project cost is $7.5 million, with the

bulk of the expense for bridge work, which began several months ago. The village spent about $565,000 on its portion, which included work on water mains and sanitary sewer lines. That work began in April and is done, Minooka Public Works Superintendent Rob Tonarelli said. The state has said the bridge will be “substantially completed” by December, Tonarelli said, and will tentatively open to traffic in December. “Everything seems like it’s going pretty smooth,” Tonarelli said. “It was a needed project. It just takes time to do.”

bstanley@shawmedia.com JOLIET – A University Park man was sentenced Friday to three-and-a-half years in prison for a 2011 Crete Township crash that killed two women. Velar Mayfield, 27, told Judge Amy Bertani-Tomczak he was sorry for the March 6, 2011, accident that killed his girlfriend Cheyenne Cardosi, 21, of Cedar Lake, Indiana, and his friend Sarah C. Shepard, 21, of Park Forest. Mayfield was charged with aggravated driving under the influence because lab tests showed he had marijuana in his system. The case went to trial in May, but prosecutors were concerned jurors might believe slushy road conditions contributed more to the crash. After one day of testimony, Mayfield agreed to plead guilty in exchange for the three-anda-half year sentence. If Mayfield had been found guilty he

Shepard was ejected from the car, while Cardosi and Mayfield were pinned inside. A passenger in another car on the road testified Mayfield had not been driving erratically until the Stratus crested a hill and slid on a slick spot. Shepard’s grandmother, Susan Smith, testified before Mayfield was sentenced. “I hope [Mayfield] realizes that driving is a responsibility and not a privilege, and driving under any influence usually winds up with something bad happening,” Smith said. “You took my granddaughter from me – part of my heart,” she said. “He took two beautiful people dear to each other and everyone else, and we will never get that back.”

The Herald-News / TheHerald-News.com • Sunday, September 7, 2014

• Continued from page 21

Hollis Ann Ford (nee Miles), of Joliet, passed away peacefully at home with her family by her side on September 4th. Born in 1956 in Marks, MS, Hollis was raised in Los Angeles, California, before settling in Illinois. Hollis was a tremendously gifted cosmetologist who excelled at helping others see the beauty in themselves. Her energy for life and passion for helping others was felt by all who had the pleasure of spending even a moment with her. She was a friend to the friendless, provider of home for the homeless, and inspired those who felt they had lost hope. She never let the difficulties and tribulations of her life affect the size of her heart and she freely gave her love to all who needed it. Hollis is preceded in death by her mother, Helen DeCamp; stepfather, Lewis DeCamp; and one brother, Steven Piper. She is survived and dearly missed by her husband, George; her father, JL; her siblings, Marina Wood (nee Miles), Michael Miles, and Benjamin DeCamp; her children, Debbie (Mark Ford), Glen Ford, Christopher (Jaymi Gleason), Kristy (David Hinz), Cassandra (Brett Krasuski), Miles Ford, and Devon Ford; her 10 grandbabies; and numerous nieces and nephews. Her visitation will be held on Sunday, Sept. 7th at Carlson Holmquist Sayles Funeral Home at 2320 Black Rd, Joliet from 2:00 p.m.-8:00 p.m. Her funeral service will be held at the same location on Monday, at 10:30am. In lieu of flowers, all donations can be sent to: Advocate Hospice C/O Advocate Charitable Donation, 3075 Highland Parkway Suite 600 Downers Grove, IL 60515-9872.

MARY HILL Mary Hill (nee St. Clair), age 69, passed away suddenly at her home on Thursday, September 4, 2014. Mary is survived by her loving husband of 47 years, Thomas Hill; her son, Michael (Leti) Hill; grandchildren, Anthony and Micaela Hill; and one brother, William (Judy) St. Clair. Preceded in death by her parents, Norman and Mary (nee Monticello) St. Clair; one daughter, Ilissa Hill; one sister, Beverly St. Clair; and two brothers-in-law, Walter and Charles Hill. Mary retired from Argonne National

Laboratory after 28 years of service as the Telephone Supervisor for the entire laboratory. Mary loved to travel with her husband Thomas, exploring Alaska, Mexico, the Cayman Islands, and the rest of the United States. Mary loved animals; her favorites were dolphins and ducks. Her grandchildren were the light of her life and she enjoyed spending as much time as possible with them. She will be sorely missed by all who knew her. In lieu of flowers, donations in Mary’s name to St. Jude Children’s Memorial Hospital would be appreciated. Funeral services for Mary will begin on Monday, September 8, 2014, with a visitation at Tezak Funeral Home, 1211 Plainfield Road, Joliet from 4:008:00 p.m. There will be a service held in the funeral home chapel during the visitation at 7:00 p.m. Per Mary’s wish cremation rites will be accorded.

LEROY LESLIE, JR.

Born: May 23, 1930; in Johnstown, PA Died: Aug. 29, 2014; in Venice, FL Leroy “Axle” Leslie, Jr., age 84, of Venice, Florida, passed away, Friday, August 29, 2014, at Tidewell Hospice in Venice, Florida. Leroy was born May 23, 1930, in Johnstown, Pennsylvania, to Leroy and Helen (Karcher) Leslie. He graduated from Johnstown Catholic High School in 1948, and from the University of Notre Dame in 1952. On September 29, 1951, Leroy married the love of his life, Jean McGregor, in Johnstown, Pennsylvania. They were happily married for 63 years. Leroy was a success in all aspects of his life. From his sporting and coaching exploits in his younger years, to his commitment to his family and professional life in his latter years. Leroy Leslie was a 1948 graduate of Johnstown Catholic and a standout on the hardwood for the Crushers. During his illustrious career, Leslie scored 663 points, which at the time was second in school history. He is one of eight players in school history to average more than twenty points in a season. In his senior season, Leslie

scored 36 points in a game against St. Joe’s, which is fifth in school history. Following his career as a Crusher, Leroy continued his basketball career at the University of Notre Dame. During his three years on the Fighting Irish varsity team, Leslie set more records than any other man in Notre Dame Basketball history up to that point. Leslie was named to the 1952 All-American team that played the Harlem Globetrotters. In that series, he was named the most valuable player for the collegians. He was the third overall draft pick of the NBA Rochester Royals in 1952. His service in the Korean War prevented him from playing in the NBA. From 1955 to 1959, Leslie coached at Joliet Catholic High school in Joliet, Illinois, where he amassed a record of 81-32, and led them to a regional championship in 1959, with a 27-3 record. In 1959, Leslie returned to Johnstown Catholic to lead the Crusher basketball team. During his five seasons as the head coach, Leslie amassed a 107-30 record, and led Johnstown Catholic to two P.C.I.A.A. State Championships in 1960 and 1963. In four of his five seasons, Johnstown Catholic won twenty games, and the team’s twenty-five wins in 1963 is sixth all-time in school history. Coach Leslie was inducted into the Bishop McCort Sports Hall of Fame in 1973. In 1967, he was inducted into the Cambria County Sports Hall of Fame. He then went on to coach basketball at Joliet West High School in Joliet, Illinois, where he built the fledging basketball program into a powerhouse in the greater Chicago area. Leroy was a teacher by profession and was well regarded by his students and fellow faculty. In 1968, he retired from coaching and became Assistant Principal at Joliet West and then Principal at Joliet West, Joliet East, and Joliet Central. He retired from Professional life in 1989 and moved to Venice, Florida. During their life, Leroy and Jean successfully raised six children who all went on to become successful in both their athletic and professional endeavors and all became fine upstanding citizens. Leroy was one of the most kind-hearted and humble individuals you could ever meet. He will be missed by all who knew him. Leroy is survived by his wife, Jean of Venice FL; daughters, Susan (Jim) Howen of Venice, FL, Sandy (Bill) Gullickson of West Palm Beach, FL, and Laurie (Richard) Jackel of Mount Juliet, TN; sons, David (Melissa) Leslie of Billings, MT, Jeffrey Leslie of Venice, FL, and Daniel (Terri) Leslie, of Gilbert,

AZ; brother, William (Judith) Leslie of Gettysburg, PA; sisters, Mary Ann (Dennis) Martinec of Chesapeake, VA, Rita (Randy) Spencer of Goose Creek, SC; and 14 grandchildren and 2 great grandchildren. A special thanks to Leona Bice, who watched over dad like a guardian angel during his final months. Also, to Tidwell Hospice in Venice, FL for making our dad and the family comfortable in his last days. A celebration of life will be held at Our Lady of Lourdes Catholic Church, 1301 Center Rd, Venice, FL, on Friday, September 12, 2014, at 1:30 p.m. To share a memory of Leroy, visit www.farleyfuneralhome.com

ROUNDUP

News from across the state

Moody’s: State pension debt vs. revenue is worst

SPRINGFIELD – Illinois’ pension liability as a percentage of state revenue is far and away the nation’s highest, a major credit-rating agency says in a new report. Moody’s Investors Service reported that the state’s three-year average liability over revenue is 258 percent. The next closest is Connecticut at about 200 percent. The report averaged the Illinois percentage from 2010 through 2012. In 2012 alone, the state’s rate was 318 percent. The state has a $100 billion deficit in the amount of money that should be invested in the portfolios of five state-employee pension accounts. Lawmakers adopted an overhaul plan last fall

that cuts benefits and increases worker contributions to significantly cut that debt. But the law has been challenged in court. A Sangamon County judge last week indicated he wanted the case moved swiftly to appellate courts, suggesting the Illinois Supreme Court’s rejection in July of a law affecting retiree health insurance could prove a model for the pension challenge. Moody’s points out that even if the pension overhaul gets constitutional approval from the high court, it still will take decades for the state to dig out of its financial hole.

Liquor sales bill helps store with political ties

CHICAGO – Gov. Pat Quinn has signed legislation allowing a specific grocery store with political connections to get around the ban on liquor sales near churches despite opposition from a nearby house of worship. The exception to the ban on sales within 100 feet of churches

was made for just a handful of establishments, including a new Pete’s Fresh Market location on Chicago’s West Side. Pete’s has made tens of thousands of dollars in campaign donations to Chicago Alderman Edward Burke, a top Quinn supporter, the Chicago Sun-Times reported. A Quinn spokeswoman said aides to the governor met with both sides to hear their concerns and decided it was “in the community’s best interest to sign the bill.” Members of the Greater Bethlehem Healing Temple church, located 75 feet from the store, had urged Quinn to veto the bill.

Man rescued while boating to Michigan from Chicago

NEW BUFFALO, Mich. – The U.S. Coast Guard says it rescued a boater in Lake Michigan after he failed to appear as expected in southwestern Michigan. The man was discovered in his boat around 8 a.m. Saturday near Bridgman, Michigan. He left Chi-

cago’s Diversey Harbor and had been expected in New Buffalo, Michigan, by 4 p.m. Friday. The Coast Guard says he had a life jacket but no cellphone. The man’s name wasn’t released.

Michigan man convicted of sex trafficking at hotel

CHICAGO – A man has been convicted of sex trafficking for allegedly bringing a woman and two teens to a Tinley Park hotel to prostitute. Fabriel Delaney, formerly of Palatine, was a resident of Kalamazoo, Michigan, when arrested in 2011 by FBI agents. A federal jury found Delaney guilty of sex trafficking by force, fraud, coercion and sex trafficking of minors. Prosecutors alleged the 28-year-old Delaney drove the three victims from the Kalamazoo area to Tinley Park, expecting to take them to the party where they would engage in sex with 10 to 12 men for $150 to $300 per customer. Instead, he was snared in a sting resulting from

an investigation into his activities that began in 2010. Prosecutors say Delaney faces up to life in prison when sentenced Dec. 10.

Ill. storm damage widespread; roof ripped from gym

SPRINGFIELD – Thunderstorms packing 70 mph winds ripped the roof off a school gymnasium in central Illinois, forcing a basketball team practicing in a neighboring gym to shelter in a locker room. Friday’s storms caused widespread damage, much of it from uprooted trees and falling tree limbs. Power was knocked out to tens of thousands of homes and business in the Chicago area, where a falling tree struck and killed a bicyclist. In the small town of Virginia, the winds ripped the roof from the Virginia High School gymnasium. No one was injured, but members of the junior high girls basketball team had to seek shelter.

NATION & WORLD BRIEFS Obama defends immigration action delay

WASHINGTON – President Barack Obama said Saturday that the surge of immigrant children entering the U.S. illegally changed the politics surrounding the issue of immigration and led him to put off a pledge to use executive action that could shield millions of people from deportation. Immigration reform advocates criticized Obama after White House officials said the president would not act at summer’s end as he promised in June but would take up the matter after the midterm elections in November. In an interview taped for NBC’s “Meet the Press,” Obama rejected the charge the delay was meant to protect Democratic candidates worried that his actions would hurt their prospects in tough Senate races. By Obama’s own calculations, politics did play a role in his decision. In his remarks to NBC, which were to be aired Sunday, he said a partisan fight in July over how to address an influx of unaccompanied minors at the border had created the impression that there was an immigration crisis and thus a volatile climate for taking the measures he had promised to take.

Apparent shelling heard outside Ukrainian port

KIEV, Ukraine – Witnesses in the Ukrainian port city of Mariupol reported sustained explosions

outside the city and a volunteer battalion of Ukrainian fighters said Grad rockets were fired at its positions late Saturday, little more than a day after Ukraine and Russian-backed separatist rebels signed a cease-fire following more than four months of fighting in the country’s east. The cease-fire had appeared to largely have been holding during much of the day. But late Saturday, witnesses in Mariupol told The Associated Press that heavy explosions were coming from the city’s eastern outskirts, where Ukrainian troops retain defensive lines against the rebels. The volunteer Azov Battalion said on Facebook that their positions were hit by Grad rockets.

Somalia extremist group names new leader

MOGADISHU, Somalia – Somalia’s Islamic extremist rebels, al-Shabab, named a new leader Saturday after confirming the killing of their previous leader by a U.S. airstrike, a commander of the group said. The Somali militants unanimously selected Ahmad Umar, also known as Abu Ubaidah, at a meeting in an undisclosed location in Somalia, said rebel commander Abu Mohammed. Al-Shabab also stated that it remains aligned with al-Qaida, according to the Site Intelligence Group, that monitors statements by Islamic militant groups.

Housing bias dispute could return to Supreme Court By SAM HANANEL

The Associated Press

WASHINGTON – It’s not easy to prevent the Supreme Court from deciding an issue once the justices have agreed to hear a case. But over the past two years, civil rights advocates have managed to do just that by coaxing settlements in a pair of high-profile housing discrimination cases weeks before the court was set to hear oral arguments. The advocates’ goal was to remove any chance that court conservatives might undermine a powerful legal doctrine the Obama administration and others have used increasingly to enforce the Fair Housing Act. While those last-minute settlements pushed the issue down the road, the Supreme Court could decide as early as this month whether to take up yet another case challenging so-called “disparate impact” lawsuits. In disparate impact cases, plaintiffs rely on statistics to show that seemingly neutral housing or lending practices can disproportionately harm racial minorities, even if there is no proof of intent to discriminate. The theory has been used for years to show bias in employment cases, but Texas officials are urging the justices to find that it doesn’t apply in housing discrimination cases. The Texas Department of Housing and Community Affairs is seeking to overturn a lower court ruling that found disparate impact could be used to show the agency illegally steered low-income housing into mostly black neighborhoods. If the high court doesn’t take up the Texas case, at least two other cases are also moving through federal courts challenging the Department of Housing and Urban Development’s adoption

AP photo

This photo taken Aug. 30, shows the Texas Department of Housing and Community Affairs in Austin, Texas. last year of regulations that specifically recognize disparate impact claims in housing cases. “It became clear early on in the [Chief Justice John] Roberts court era that the best way for liberal groups to win before the Supreme Court on issues aside from gay rights is not to play,” said Rick Hasen, a professor at the University of California-Irvine School of Law. But Hasen said he doesn’t expect the game of keep away to last on the housing issue because opponents keep bringing legal challenges and the justices clearly are interested. Disparate impact has been used for more than four decades since the Supreme Court embraced it in a landmark employment discrimination case in 1971. But the theory has emerged in recent years as a centerpiece of the Justice Department’s effort to crack down on illegal housing practices. In 2011, the government won a record $335 million settlement from Bank of America to resolve allegations that its Countrywide unit discriminated against black and Hispanic customers by charging them higher fees and steering them into higher-risk sub-

prime loans. The lawsuits have drawn the ire of banks and mortgage companies, which contend that federal housing laws should punish only intentional acts of discrimination. Civil rights groups say the disparate impact argument is needed to counter forms of discrimination that are less overt but still have the effect of hurting racial minorities. In the Texas case, a fair housing group alleged that the state’s system for handing out low-income housing tax credits had a disparate impact on racial minorities. A federal appeals court agreed the group could use statistics to show the state was approving more low-income housing in black neighborhoods than in white areas. Such policies perpetuate segregated neighborhoods, fair housing advocates say. The Texas Department of Housing and Community Affairs said allowing disparate impact claims would open nearly every housing decision, from zoning rules to use of credit scores, to potential litigation. The agency also said it puts housing officials in the awkward position of seeking out race-neutral results without actually taking race into account.

Zeal, devotion guides volunteers to Ebola crisis The Associated Press

One of every four kernels of corn grown in Illinois is exported to the world through the CenterPoint Intermodal Center. That’s good for our local farmers. No one grows corn better than our local farmers, and no one connects them to the global marketplace faster than the CenterPoint Intermodal Center in Joliet and Elwood. The agriculture industry in Illinois depends on exports, and according to the Will County Farm Bureau, one of every four kernels of corn grown in Illinois is exported to the world through the CIC. That’s good for our local farmers, and it creates tax revenues and more jobs for all of us.

CHARLOTTE, N.C. – Working with Ebola patients in Liberia, American pediatrician Alan Jamison treated as many people as he could as the country slipped into chaos. Each day, more patients showed up at the hospital’s doors. The deadly virus wasn’t the only danger: Ebola was causing such fear that some Liberians were threatening to burn down the isolation unit with doctors and patients inside. His medical missionary group pulled him out early as a precaution. Still, the 69-yearold retiree says he’d return. “This is where the need is,” Jamison explains. “This is my calling. Jamison isn’t alone – even after three American aid workers fell sick, many other doctors, nurses and other health care volunteers are on their way to West Africa, helping to staff hospitals and clinics and screen travelers to slow the epidemic’s spread. Why are so many willing to put themselves in harm’s way? “It’s a call, a zeal, a devotion. It’s an acceptance of a professional life outside the ordinary, with an element of adventure,” said William Schaffner, an infectious disease specialist at Vanderbilt University in Nashville, Tennessee. Hospital volunteer Nancy Writebol and Dr. Kent Brantly were already in Liberia when the outbreak began, and decided to stay at the charity-run ELWA hospital in Monrovia to help. Richard Sacra, a 15-year ELWA veteran, immediately volunteered to leave his family in suburban Boston and return to the hospital when Writebol and Brantly got sick. Jamison also worked there. All are committed to their cause. Like Jamison, Nancy Writebol and her husband, David, told The Associated Press that they’d consider going back. Brantly said he couldn’t return just yet, but would keep campaigning to end Ebola. Sacra also had no regrets, his wife said as the doctor was evacuated to the isolation unit in a Nebraska hospital. “Once you go and you see

the Lord at work, I mean, there’s nothing else that you want to do,” Nancy Writebol said. These volunteers are passionate, but there’s also a cold logic to their commitment: This epidemic that has killed more than 2,000 people and sickened 3,900 in five West African nations won’t end unless more experienced health care workers confront it directly. Ebola is being spread by people, in hospitals, homes and funerals. People catch the virus when they have direct contact with the blood or bodily fluids of those who are sick and dying, or already dead. At ELWA, Jamison trained workers how to protect themselves and the wider population. The hospital in Monrovia is operated by Charlotte-based SIM USA, and includes more than 200 beds as well as the 50-bed isolation unit for Ebola patients. Keeping those populations separate is essential, Jamison said, but is no simple matter. He trained workers to wear a mask and gloves and screen new patients from several feet away before they were allowed to enter. When patients showed signs of Ebola, a worker wearing a protective suit would be summoned to bring them to a holding area for evaluation and then to the isolation unit if necessary. But the screeners have to ask the right questions to suss out the truth in such a fearful environment, Jamison said. And if anyone masking Ebola symptoms is allowed inside, they could expose many more people who don’t routinely wear full-body protective suits. “Sometimes I felt safer in the Ebola unit than in the hospital,” Jamison said. Most international aid organizations are quite familiar with the risks of sending health care workers into terrain plagued by war, political turmoil and disease. But this Ebola epidemic has posed serious and unique challenges. “We’re balancing tremendous need in a risky environment,” said Joe DiCarlo, a vice-president at Jamison’s sponsor, the Portland, Oregon-based Medical Teams International.

Mixed views in East Europe on higher NATO defense By MONIKA SCISLOWSKA The Associated Press

WARSAW, Poland – Leaders in most Eastern European nations are just short of jubilant after NATO created a rapid-reaction “spearhead” force to protect the region from Russian bullying. They have long sought a commitment to allay their fears, especially following Russia’s recent aggression in Ukraine. But not all share in the joy. Some who spent decades under the Soviet yoke – politicians and ordinary people – think that the move could enrage Moscow and undermine the sense of security they have felt since the collapse of the Soviet Union and the expansion of NATO in the 1990s. The region’s long-standing distrust of Russia became more acute following Russia’s annexation of the Crimea Peninsula and its role in the armed conflict in eastern Ukraine. Poland, the region’s most potent speaker, has pushed for a large, permanent deploy-

ment of at least two divisions of NATO troops on its territory as a deterrent to any such activity in Russia’s west. The NATO summit in Newport, Wales, this week settled for less, after Germany and some other major members insisted they want to keep a dialogue open with Moscow. The summit decided on a new, rapid-reaction force of some 5,000 troops, a “spearhead” ready to deploy to any conflict zone in a matter of hours. The command and key infrastructure is to be located near the Russian border. In Poland, many presume. “We would have liked more but let’s be happy with the decisions taken in Newport,” Poland’s Prime Minister Donald Tusk said. “We still have a lot of work to do to make this quantitative change satisfying.” But, he insisted: “This signal is very strong and our Eastern neighbor [Russia] cannot ignore it.” As the summit deliberated on Friday, Ukraine, Russia and the Kremlin-backed sepa-

A destroyed Ukrainian army tank is seen Saturday near the village of Lebedynske, on the highway joining Mariupol and Novoazovsk, Ukraine. After four months of war, eastern Ukraine on Saturday began the first full day of an uncertain cease-fire. The truce agreement calls for an exchange of prisoners and establishment of humanitarian corridors, but how quickly those actions will begin is unclear. ratists signed a cease-fire and the months-long fighting in Eastern Ukraine seemed to be held back. On his way home from Newport, Poland’s President Bronislaw Komorowski made a stop at a NATO-linked multinational force in Szczecin, in northwestern Poland, that

is to be strengthened under the new strategy. Some speculate Szczecin may host the command of the “spearhead.” Komorowski said he would like the new force to be linked “to the maximum” to the area of potential use because “we expect that the area on [NATO’s] eastern flank will be an

area of more crises and more challenges.” Poland’s former ambassador to NATO, Jerzy Maria Nowak, believes that NATO’s decisions may be a comfort for some, but “for Russia they may be a provocation and a violation of the agreements” it has with NATO. In Estonia, which like Ukraine borders Russia and has a sizeable Russian minority, one political commentator remains optimistic and believes that plans to have key NATO command closer to Russia’s border shows the alliance’s “readiness, preparedness or resoluteness which previously was absent.” “Russia is always doing things, they always need to show resolve, they are always pushing and intimidating as much as they can. But keep cool about these things. If you don’t show you’re ready to defend yourself, you are inviting trouble,” Andres Kasekamp, a member of the Estonian Foreign Policy Institute, told The Associated Press.

Looking at Kinder Morgan Dear Mr. Berko: I bought 1,000 shares of Kinder Morgan Energy Partners on your recommendation this April at $76 because of regular dividend increases and because I would get $5,560 in income, which is a 7.3 percent yield, and it would be tax-free. Now, the stock is $97 because it’s merging with three of Richard Kinder’s other companies, and my new stock, Kinder Morgan, or KMI, will only pay me $4,400, which is a lot less. What am I missing here? Have I been screwed? –

ND, Joliet, Ill.

Dear ND: You certainly have and royally, too. You’ve been gut-jabbed, pole-axed and backstabbed by Richard Kinder who founded Kinder Morgan Energy Partners (KMP-$96). However, that gain isn’t worth bupkis when you realize how cleverly Richard sliced and diced his KMP shareholders. For each share of KMP you own, Richard will give you $10.27 in cash plus 2.2 shares of Kinder Morgan Inc. (KMI-$40). So when the deal closes in December, you end up with 2,200 shares of KMI and $10,270 in cash. But according to estimates released by Richard’s lawyers, your tax liability from the merger ranges between $12 and $18 a share. It seems that Richard has slyly taken KMP shareholders to the cleaners. It won’t be till December, when the deal is done, that thousands of bonkered shareholders will realize they’ve been short-circuited, shortchanged and given the short end of the stick by this merger. Frankly, I’m surprised that swarms of lawyers haven’t

Beware of rabid bats

Bats are a unique and important part of our ecosystem. They’re prolific eaters of insects; they’re the only mammals that can fly. Generally, bats don’t have much to do with people – they’re nocturnal and spend most of their waking hours flying around eating bugs. But when you do encounter them at odd times or places, it’s important to stay away. Bats are the main cause of human cases of rabies in Illinois, according to the Illinois Department of Public Health. The Will County Health Department has said nine rabid bats have been found in the county this year. The nine confirmations this year include three in Joliet and three in Wilmington, plus single positives from Braidwood, Mokena and New Lenox. The first positive for this year was confirmed May 12 in Joliet. “Bats are really just mice with wings. They have extremely flexible bodies, capable of getting into small openings,” said Vic Reato, Will County Health Department spokesman. “It’s not unusual to find them in your house. But bats, by nature, don’t want to be involved with humans any more than we would wish to be involved with them.” So when you see a bat out and about in the daytime, consider that a red flag that the bat is diseased, Reato said. The most serious problem could be rabies. Rabid bats are dangerous. They might not behave as bats normally do – they may be seen in the daytime, or flopping around on the ground. They might be found inside a house or land on or near people. However, not all rabid bats act strangely; health officials advise people to avoid any contact with bats. Rabies is transmitted when an infected bat’s saliva coming in contact with a person’s nose, mouth, or a bite or scratch wound. Usually once symptoms of the disease appear, it is too late for treatment. Any bats suspected of having contact with people should be captured and given to health officials if at all possible for rabies testing. A negative test can spare people from requiring a series of rabies shots. Bat bites might not be painful enough to wake a sleeping person. There are 12 species of bats in Illinois, and all of them are protected – killing them is illegal without a permit. It’s also important to note that although bats are the primary source of rabies cases in humans, most bats are not rabid. Only about 5 percent of bats tested for rabies come back positive, and among the bat population at large, it’s less than 1 percent, according to state health department. Still, people need to protect themselves. Local health officials say that means keeping pets’ vaccinations up to date, calling police or animal control when animals in the neighborhood are behaving strangely, and teaching children never to handle unfamiliar animals. Bats are amazing creatures, but they’re best admired from a distance – or on TV nature shows.

THE FIRST

AMENDMENT

Can Obama come up with an ISIS strategy? If we are going to have a meaningful, productive, national debate on what our foreign policy and reactions should be to ISIS, we need to have unbiased information. Right now, we simply are not getting it. Let’s begin with what this organization actually is. ISIS stands roughly for the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria. President Obama and most foreign leaders still call it ISIL, or the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant. That name, ISIS, reflects an expanded claim on territory. Indeed, ISIS has no defined geographical boundaries. It has no borders, no national government, no international recognition as a state, and it most emphatically has no recognition as an agent of the Islamic faith. Hussein Ibish, a Middle East expert and senior fellow at the American Task Force on Palestine, said in a Twitter

VIEWS Donna Brazile exchange, that “[ISIS] is NOT a state, but it’s more than a non-state actor too. Sui generis & deadly.” Merriam-Webster defines “Sui generis” as meaning “in a class or group of its own; not like anything else.” That perfectly describes ISIS. While it is not a national government, it has a system of administering – however brutally – the cities it captures. Its four main councils made certain that city services are delivered, and in some cases, have done better than the elected officials did before they were killed brutally. They have a military council, which, by all appearances, ISIS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi gives pretty much free reign to plan and execute military strategy. The combined

militia forces of ISIS number between 8,000 and 20,000. A recent published claim that it has 100,000 fighters is bizarre and nowhere near accurate. President Obama does have a strategy for ISIS in Iraq. It’s to encourage the Iraqi leaders to form a more inclusive government that is representative of the entire population, including religious minorities. There’s little doubt Obama had a hand in the rapid loss of support for former Iraqi President Nouri al-Maliki. That’s a major foreign policy achievement. It represents the removal of a roadblock to a stable Iraqi government, which leaves no vacuum for ISIS to fill. Talking about dealing with ISIS in Syria, Obama explained that “ ... Syria is not simply a military issues, it’s also a political issue.” When asked if he needed “Congress’ approval

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.

Obama must encourage Turkey to close its border • BRAZILE

Continued from page 32 to go into Syria” – a question that presumes there will or should be military action – Obama responded, “We don’t have a strategy yet” (Oh, the gaffe that wasn’t!) and left out the implied “for military action that would need Congressional approval.” He clarified that in the next couple sentences, referring to the assessment of the military itself (if and what) and the need to develop clear plans. Until the beheading of a second American correspondent, Congress was very cautious about any involvement in Syria. Many have taken ISIS’ bait to draw the U.S. into combat in Syria. It is horrifying to see a conscious person have his neck slit open, and sawed off with a knife. ISIS knows the Western reaction to this won’t be just

revulsion. After the second beheading, Congressional critics with more of an eye for an attempted public stampede than for what’s wise are trying to exert enormous pressure on Obama to bomb, bomb, bomb. Obama, who has been criticized by his persistent detractors as leading from behind or for being “feckless,” has been resolute in resisting hasty reactions. Is he cautious, as Sen. Dianne Feinstein stated? Of course. Perhaps a better description of President Obama’s foreign policy approach is “thoughtful and deliberate” – to “think things through,” as political writer Steve Benen puts it, before acting. While Obama puts together a multi-pronged Syrian-ISIS strategy, we should remember one of the consequences of military action: possible engagement of troops on the ground. Such a direct on-the-groundengagement would raise ISIS

in terrorist organizations’ eyes, and attract thousands of young wannabe Jihadist recruits to Syria. For now, the U.S. airstrikes in Iraq to stop the excursion of ISIS, and the support of both Kurdish and Iraqi troops on the ground, will continue to serve as the foundation of our actions until can we gather the intelligence to do more in Syria. In the meantime, President Obama must encourage Turkey to close its border and monitor the foreign fighters entering Syria, and work with the Saudis and others to ensure they cut off all funding to ISIS. Far from the madding crowd of pundits and publicity-addicted politicians, Obama will continue to pull together a comprehensive strategy to defeat, destroy and shrink ISIS. He will be, again, deliberate and thorough and cautious in putting together a multinational coalition that involves U.S. friends and allies in the Middle

Wanless, Brozovich direct long drives in rout of Olivet Nazarene By DICK GOSS

dgoss@shawmedia.com

• Sunday, September 7, 2014

JOLIET – To an outsider, the graduation of four-year starter and NAIA All-America quarterback E.J. White after last season was supposed to send the University of St. Francis football program into a panic. “Everyone wanted to know, ‘what are you going to do? How are you going to replace E.J.?’ ” coach Joe Curry said. “But our offense is so quarterback-driven that who we have playing there is going to succeed.” It happened that way Saturday as the Saints opened the season with a 41-10 nonconference victory over Olivet Nazarene at Memorial Stadium. Trace Wanless, the former wide receiver starting his first game at quarterback, and Mitch Brozovich, the Minooka graduate and transfer from Minnesota State making his USF debut, both were solid. In fact, Brozovich directed a 17-play, 94-yard drive for the game’s first points with 10:44 left in the second quarter. Wanless piloted touchdown marches of 56 yards in three plays, 99 yards in seven plays and 77 yards in 10. “You absolutely like 99- and 94-yard drives,” Wanless said. “They deflate a defense. It was a different transition for me going from receiver to quarterback, but I felt confident. We do a lot off-the-read option, which I’m comfortable with.” Wanless rushed nine times for 96 yards and hit 5 of his 13 passes for 113 yards and one touchdown. Brozovich rushed six times for 31 yards and completed 4 of 7 for 34 yards and a touchdown to Brandon Noland. Wanless hit All-American receiver Troy Torrence with a 5-yard touchdown pass and connect with Torrence on a 59yard bomb that did not go the distance. “I’m surprised Troy got caught on that one,” Wanless smiled. Brozovich was intercepted once, but Curry said, “That wasn’t his fault. That one was on the coaches. Mitch played

Malike Norman rushed for 96 yards in eight carries and John Magee (Plainfield South) chipped in with 80 yards in 16 carries while scoring twice. “On offense, we missed some throws and reads,” Curry said, “and that’s the coaching part. We needed more passing than we thought we would. We didn’t anticipate needing that much. We do have an explosive offense.”

On the other side of the ball, the Saints were dominant. Olivet starting quarterback Zach Gross left as a precaution after one quarter, and the USF defense shackled his understudy, Derek Durkes. The Saints pitched a shutout until the fourth quarter. A field goal at the end of a seven-play, 7-yard drive, set up by the interception of Brozovich, accounted for the first points. Olivet rushed for a modest 178 yards and its quarterbacks were 3-of-22 passing for 30 yards with three interceptions. Those three interceptions all came compliments of Joliet Catholic graduates. Cornerback Breion Tucker, a transfer from St. Francis of Indiana

playing his first game for the Saints, had two. He returned the first 47 yards for a touchdown and the second 21 yards to the Olivet 45. Veteran linebacker Mike Passo, who led USF with 12 tackles, including three solo, made a nice grab over the middle for the other pick. “Breion was very good today,” Passo said of Tucker. “I had maybe one or two interceptions all last year. To have one in the season opener feels great.” “The thanks go to my teammates,” Tucker said. “The front seven, all of them, were outstanding. If they [weren’t] doing what they did, I wouldn’t be here talking to you right

now. Coach [Adam] Siwicki is in his first year as the defensive coordinator and he is doing a great job.” “We were very strong in the gaps and it showed,” Passo said. “We had that one bad possession [the Olivet interception], but then we stopped them with a field goal. “It was all about personnel. Once their running quarterback went out, we shut down their option.” Curry said while the game got sloppy in the final nine minutes, “Until then, I couldn’t be happier. This is what we were looking for. We had a great first drive and stalled, which we didn’t like, but I never had the feeling this one was in doubt.”

But when it comes to record-breaking performances, such as the one he dropped on Minooka in Friday night’s 5613 nonconference triumph, he realizes why it happens. “It’s Justin [Hunniford, the Celtics’ quarterback], the placement he has on his passes,” Boykin said. “He puts the ball where the defensive guys have no chance to get it.” Who knows what kind of gaudy numbers the Celtics might post this season if things keep clicking the way they did Friday. On a night when rain came and went, Hunniford completed 25-of-29 passes for 324 yards and seven touchdowns. He went 18 of 21 for six touchdowns in the first half, which ended with Providence (2-0) on top, 42-7. Five touchdown tosses went to

Boykin and two to Nate Vejvoda. Hunniford’s seven-touchdown passes surpassed the school record of five. Chris Orr accomplished that twice, Rich Kostelz once and Robert Cruz once. Boykin’s five touchdown receptions also set a school record. Hunniford, who was on target in last week’s 21-10 win over Joliet Catholic, is 50 of 59 over two games. Boykin caught 11 passes for 184 yards, one reception shy of Dave Strubbe’s school record. Vejvoda grabbed five for 82. “The numbers are nice, but it’s not about how any of us does as an individual. It’s how the team comes out and plays,” Hunniford said. “What matters tonight is that the team scored 56 points.” On Providence’s first possession, Hunniford took a quarterback draw 18 yards, then found Boykin in the end zone along the left side for a 24-yard touchdown strike. The two-play drive was only a tease. Before the half ended, Hun-

niford tacked on touchdown tosses of 7 yards to Boykin, 45 to Vejvoda, 5 to Vejvoda, 60 to Boykin and 4 to Boykin. The 60-yard catch-and-run on a slant pattern was a highlight reel unto itself as Boykin stepped out of three potential tackles and ran past the rest of the defense. “That was all Justin,” Boykin said. “It was a good read, and Justin just dumped it off.” “It is fun to watch those guys,” Providence coach Mark Coglianese said. “Miles picks his routes and has so much creativity.” Minooka (1-1) generated some offense as sophomore quarterback John Carnagio went 10 for 22 for 111 yards, with Jacob Adams catching six for 52. However, the Providence rushing defense limited Minooka standout back Nate Gunn to 22 yards on 11 carries. A highlight for the Indians came when defensive end Blake Parzych returned a fumble recovery 54 yards for a touchdown. “I don’t know if it’s that we

learned much from this game,” Minooka coach Paul Forsythe said. “Obviously, he (Boykin) is a special talent. We don’t have anyone on his level to cover him. “And, we couldn’t get Nate (Gunn) going. That changes what we want to do offensively. Carnagio is going to be a special player. He played well under the circumstances. But again, when you become one-dimensional, that makes life difficult. We’ll clean it up and move on.” The negative for Providence came late in the first half. Senior defensive back Justin Gardner suffered a broke tibia on a play, where Carnagio hooked up with Quintin Durov on a 41-yard completion to the Providence 3. When played resumed, Gunn scored the 3-yard touchdown. “It’s a shame,” Coglianese said. “Justin [Gardner] does so many things for us on the field, and he has the biggest heart on the team. Even when he was lying on the ground hurt, his concern was that he was not going to get to play with us any more.”

COAL CITY – Mason Southall has been around Wilmington’s football program long enough to know a good thing when he sees it. And the senior quarterback definitely liked what he saw from his teammates during Friday’s nonconference game against rival Coal City. With Southall directing the attack, Wilmington bounced back from an early 7-0 deficit to claim a 26-7 victory over the Coalers. While Nick McWilliams and Nick Hawkins were piling up the yards on the ground, Southall connected on all but one of his passes, with Alex Zlomie making each of the catches. McWilliams rushed for 126 yards on 17 carries while Hawkins picked up 58 yards on 17 attempts. Southall was 5 of 6 for 127 yards through the air. “At the beginning we were kind of slow, but my dad, coach (Barry) Southall, got on us about getting fast and getting up the field,” said Mason Southall, who was on the sideline when the Wildcats played in the 2003 IHSA Class 3A title game. “So we started running our bread and butter and we played physical. We have great skill guys and great speed. “Starting last year helped me tremendously. I’ve seen a lot of positive things so far and I like that we’re together and we’re a team. We know our ups and downs and what we need to do. This is always a tough game and when we come here we’re more pumped than for almost any other game because they’re our rival and you know that it’s going to be tough.” Parker Czaja scored on a 12yard run that capped an eightplay, 66-yard drive to give the Coalers (1-1) a 7-0 lead with 4:15 left in the opening quarter. Wilmington (2-0) answered three plays later when Southall threw a long pass to Zlomie, who went up for the grab and then burst down the right side for a 54-yard score, tying the score with 2:31 left in the first quarter. Early in the second quarter, the Wildcats went on an eight-

ly had the size factor on us, so we had to play really good, fundamental football, and we did that tonight. “We obviously ran the ball well, but we showed like last week that if we have to pass, we can. Overall, we played good team defense and offensively Barry called a great game. I’m ecstatic to be 2-0.” After play was halted for more than an hour early in the second half because of lightning, the Wildcats’ 15-play “You always want one re- drive was capped by a 23-yard ally tough team early to see field goal by Casillas with 3:45 where you’re at and we’ve had left in the third quarter. two tough teams right off the Wilmington, which also got bat,” Wildcats coach Jeff Re- fumble recoveries from Joe ents said. “So for us to come out Mann and Mason Del Angel and like this is real big for us. an interception by Hawkins, “It’s a great rival game since completed the scoring with 9:56 they know what we do and we to go after McWilliams ended a know what they do. They’re seven-play, 66-yard drive with huge up front and they definite- a 4-yard run.

Coal City, which only ran a dozen plays during the final half, was led by Jack Dibble, who gained 73 yards on 20 carries. “We didn’t play very well and we have a lot of work to do,” Coalers coach Lenny Onsen said. “We have lot of room for improvement and we’re going to start on it tomorrow. Some times you see if a loss wakes you up. “We played some good defense and were doing a lot of good things. But a couple of big plays just killed us. That’s something that we constantly talk about is not getting beat by big plays and that beat us. “It’s a tough one to lose. They’re a good football team but losing just isn’t much fun, especially on your own field. So hopefully we’ll be better prepared for next week.”

LINCOLN-WAY EAST 23, LINCOLN-WAY CENTRAL 15

Morrissey leads East past Central By MIKE FITZGERALD

Shaw Media Correspondent NEW LENOX – Lincoln-Way East junior running back Liam Morrissey had a coming-out party Friday against Lincoln-Way Central. Morrissey carried the ball 53 times for 280 yards and scored three touchdowns as the Griffins held off a late Knights’ rally to win, 23-15. Not bad for someone who entered with two previous varsity carries under his belt. “The linemen. Awesome blocking. I have to give it to them,” said Morrissey, who started in place of injured running back Alex Kraft. “With Alex out for a little while, we talked about it not just being on Liam’s shoulders to replace Alex, but it was on the O-line’s shoulders to block better,” East coach Rob Zvonar said. “It’s not just one guy, but we do have a next-man in philosophy, and I don’t think anybody exemplified that better than No. 22, Liam Morrissey. He’s a big, tough back, a grinder, a fall-forward kid on contact and really the MVP.” The Knights (1-1) led, 9-7, at halftime because of a 29-yard field goal by Joe Nealon and an 86-yard touchdown run by senior running back Sean Studer, who finished with 134 yards on 19 carries. Morrissey’s 7-yard touchdown run provided the points for the Griffins. East took a 13-9 lead on Mor-

The game went into a halfhour delay with 6:14 left in the third quarter because of lightning.

After a 5-yard penalty put the ball back at the 38, Morrissey ran 38 yards for a touchdown to put East up, 20-9. East (1-1) ran the majority of its running plays to the shortside of the field, which allowed Morrissey room to operate. “I guess that’s just how the

blocking was set up to allow for me to cut back to the back side of the field,” Morrissey said. The Griffins dominated the third quarter, scoring 13 points and in time of possession (10:24). East led, 23-9, before Knights quarterback Connor

Campbell engineered a 10-play, 70-yard scoring drive to cut the lead to 23-15 with 4:51 to play. Campbell was knocked out of the game in the previous series. The Knights’ defense forced a Griffins’ punt and Central had the ball at its 42 with 2:40 left. Campbell led the Knights to the East 18 before his pass was intercepted by the Griffins’ Kyle Keuch with less than a minute to play to seal the win. The Griffins had 342 offensive yards to the Knights’ 264. “It was a nice drive. We were moving the ball. There was some miscommunication on the route where their defensive back did a good job and was in a good position to make a nice diving catch,” Knights coach Hud Venerable said. “Connor’s a nice athlete, and he showed some real leadership ability out there and that’s what we needed at that point. He took us down the field and did some things with his feet and he did some things with his arm. There were some real positives to take away from the fourth quarter. “The fourth quarter is how I would like my football team to play. I thought we really got after it in the fourth quarter. We moved the football, and we were playing defensively with excitement and enthusiasm, and that’s what I take away from the game.”

LINCOLN-WAY WEST 17, BLOOM 14

Montalvo, Lincoln-Way West slips past Bloom By LARRY LINDHOLM

Shaw Media Correspondent NEW LENOX – It was not easy, but Lincoln-Way West is 2-0. The Warriors slipped past Bloom, 17-14, Friday night in a lightning-delayed, rainsoaked battle. The Blazing Trojans scored late in the first quarter on an 8-yard run by senior quarterback Jordan Benavides, capping an 83-yard, 11-play drive. Anthony Jackson ran in the

two-point conversion to give Bloom an 8-0 advantage. The Warriors ran off 12 plays on the next possession, only to be stopped short of the goalline. Bloom took possession and on the first play, sophomore Ryan Burggren tackled Benavides in the end zone for a safety to cut Bloom’s lead to 8-2. Neither offense was able to generate much the rest of the first half. “Give Bloom credit,” West coach Dave Ernst said, “they

are a good team. They have made the playoffs and after losing some key players, they are getting better.” Bloom received the second-half kickoff and on its first play, junior Gabe Montalvo recovered an errant pitchout on the Bloom 2-yard line. On the third play, Montalvo cracked the goal line. Mike Pratl’s extra point gave the Warriors a 9-8 lead with 9:55 left in the third quarter. After a 30-minute lightning delay, the Blazing Tro-

jans marched 77 yards, using 14 plays and 8:23 of the clock. Benavides scored on a 4-yard run. The Blazing Trojans were able to keep the drive alive by converting three third downs. With 8:15 left in the fourth quarter, Adam Knerr plunged into the end zone to give the Warriors a 15-14 lead. Knerr finished the scoring by catching the conversion pass from sophomore quarterback Dino Borrelli. “These kids believe in themselves,” Ernst said.

“They do not get rattled. There was no panic. “Adam Knerr is a high-quality player. He brings everything he has to the game.” The Blazing Trojans had one final possession to try to win, but senior captain Nick Trolian had two sacks to clinch the win for Lincoln-Way West. “We saw what we need to improve, informed the team at halftime, they listened and they accomplished what we want a victory,” Ernst said.

BOLINGBROOK 51, ROMEOVILLE 14

Bolingbrook rebounds to crush Romeoville By DRAKE SKLEBA

Shaw Media Correspondent ROMEOVILLE – One week after a stunning season-opening loss at home to Hinsdale Central, Bolingbrook apparently was ready to play arch-rival Romeoville on Friday night as the Raiders crushed the Spartans, 51-14 Senior quarterback Adam Klein dominated, completting all eight of his passes for 174 yards and two touchdowns. He rushed for 52 yards, converted 6-of-7 extra points and kicked a 31-yard field goal. “The offensive line did a great job protecting me all night,” Klein said. “After last week’s loss, our coaches really got on us and we worked really hard in practice this week. We played a great game tonight. Quincy Woods is just a playmaker. He told me to just throw him the ball and he will do something with it.” Woods touched the ball eight times for 185 yards and scored a pair of touchdowns. He caught four passes from Klein for 107 yards, including a 35-yard strike that gave the Raiders a 14-0 first-quar-

ter lead. Woods also rushed for 78 yards in four carries, including a 17-yard TD dash that gave the Raiders a 27-6 second-quarter lead. “I felt really good out there and left everything on the field,” Woods said. “We did a much better job this week with our offense and I’m confident we will get better every week. It took us a week to learn the offense.” Romeoville (0-2) closed to within 14-6 on an 8-yard strike from senior quarterback Kelvin Jones to senior tight end Tony Borges. The two-point attempt failed with 2:31 in the first quarter. It was the third touchdown pass of the season for Jones, who finished 8 for 23 for 24 yards. Jones rushed for 51 yards on eight carries. Senior running back Isaac Lane scored the first Raider touchdown from 5 yards out on Bolingbrook’s first possession. He later scored on a 13-yard run to give Bolingbrook a 21-6 lead. Woods’ 17-yard touchdown run made it 27-6 and Klein hit senior wide receiver Dimitri Wiafe Akenten from 20 yards out to close out the half. University of Minnesota-bound

Jacob Huff led the Raider defense, which held the Spartans to less than 100 offensive yards. Huff intercepted a pass on the final play of the half. “Bounce-back win from last week,” Huff said. “We really came out and played a great game. Romeoville has some offensive weapons, but we really shut them down.” After a 55-minute lightning delay, the third quarter began. Klein’s 31-yard field goal made it 37-6. Junior running back Jaylen Griffin scored from 4 yards out in the third quarter and senior running back Lovell Chandler’s 3-yard touchdown increased the lead to 51-6. Romeoville concluded the scoring on a 5-yard touchdown run by senior Gill Whitaker. Junior Manuel Nartey caught the two-point conversion from junior quarterback Anthony Kitchens. “We had a great week of practice, and everyone played to their ability,” Bolingbrook coach John Ivlow said. “Adam Klein did it all. Quincy Woods had a special night, and our defense shut down a very good Romeoville offense.”

PLAINFIELD – Plainfield East’s defense rose to the occasion during crucial moments in Friday night’s nonconference game against West Aurora. With 28 seconds left in the game, the Bengals preserved a hard-fought 14-7 victory when they stopped the Blackhawks on fourth-and-goal from their own 6-yard line. The game was pushed up thirty minutes because of concerns for inclement weather, which saw a hard rain fall for most of the second half. Senior running back Jake Mayon (23 rushes for 181 yards, one reception for 65 yards) accounted for a combined 246 of the Bengals 285 total yards for the game. Quarterback Cole Kotopka was 4-of-13 passing for 86 yards and a touchdown to Mayon. West Aurora was led by running back DaQuan Cross (13 carries for 65 yards), Tarshma Jackson (14 carries for 51 yards) and quarterback Johnathon Doyle (12 carries for 77 yards). “Both teams came out to see what the other had, and ideally, these type of conditions do not favor us,” East coach Mike Romeli said. “We really were not able to stretch the field with our throws, and that is a big part of what we do but I am extremely happy that we came out of the game with the W.” West Aurora (0-2) missed on some opportunities to score early as each of its first two offensive series ended on fourth-down plays inside the Bengals 25-yard line. “[West Aurora] had us worried,” Romeli said.“They played a heck of a game tonight against us. They have very good athletes. They’re well coached, and they don’t make mistakes.” After a scoreless first quarter, East (2-0) scored midway through the second quarter when Mayon ripped off an 85-yard run that brought the Bengals down to the 1-yard line. Two plays later, Kotopka scored on a 2-yard touchdown run to give the Bengals an early 7-0 lead with 6:30 left in the half. “It was great blocking on the outside, and I just took advantage of the huge hole on the outside and got tripped up and almost got in,” Mayon said. “Jake (Mayon) was phenomenal tonight,” Romeli said. “He had a huge week last week, and he was our workhorse again this week. He just outworks everybody.” Mayon would see the end zone early in the second half as the Bengals scored on their third offensive play. Mayon took a screen pass from Kotopka and rumbled 65 yards for the score to extend the lead to 14-0 with 10:45 left in the third. Cross’ 6-yard touchdown run cut East’s lead in half at 14-7 on the Blackhawks’ next possession with 3:30 left in the quarter setting up the late East defensive heroics.

JOLIET CATHOLIC 41, WHEATON NORTH 13

Joliet Catholic bounces back with victory over Wheaton N. By JOSH MANDER

Shaw Media Correspondent WHEATON – Joliet Catholic bounced back with a much-needed 41-13 victory over Wheaton North on Friday Night. The Hilltoppers went threeand-out on their first drive. However, the ensuing punt return was muffed and recovered by junior tight end Jake Kinsella. From there, it was all Hilltoppers. They drove to the Falcons’ 22-yard line before settling for a 37-yard field goal by senior kicker Brian Bravo. After a three-and-out by Wheaton North, JCA found its groove. Senior running back Drew Voss started the drive with a 10-yard scamper. After a holding penalty, quarterback Cade Earl connected with junior running back Michael Johnson for 17 yards. Earl rolled out and showed off his

arm strength, connecting with Johnson again for a 37-yard touchdown. Despite being injured in Week 1, Earl had a strong showing. He finished with 80 yards through the air. Coach Dan Sharp enjoyed his offense’s performance. “The offense made strides, Cade played well and we saw some big plays that you didn’t see last week,” Sharp said. The Hilltoppers accumulated 57 yards on the ground in last week’s effort. That mark was surpassed in a single play when Johnson went 67 yards for a touchdown. Once he saw the gap, Johnson told himself, “Just turn on the jets. Turn on the jets, keep going and don’t look back.” During the next series, junior cornerback Bill Rotnicki intercepted a pass and broke a way for a 34-yard touchdown return. It was one of five turnovers the Hilltoppers forced.

“We watched them all week in film,” Rotnicki said. “I knew he’d come with the out route. I saw the quarterback’s eyes come to wide receiver and I just jumped it.” Rotnicki added a key tackle on a fourth-and-1 play. Senior Michael Gruben led the defense with 13 tackles. “We had to bounce back from the loss, get a win and get confidence going into conference [East Suburban Catholic],” Gruben said. Wheaton North managed two second-half scoring drives capped by touchdown passes from quarterback Luke Anthony to senior wide receiver Michael Bloss. Joliet Catholic finished with 237 yards rushing. Sharp was pleased with the effort but stressed the need to get better. “We need to improve on penalties and being more consistent on offense,” he said. “Defensively, we just have to finish better.”

RICHTON PARK – Joliet Central’s football team certainly put itself in a position to earn its first win since its program was restarted. In fact, the Steelmen were less than six minutes away from snapping their 37-game losing streak. But just as things started to look up for Central, its fortunes suddenly turned when Rich South got a long interception return for a touchdown to tip the advantage in its favor to claim a 14-12 nonconference victory Saturday. Tevin Sudduth picked off a pass in the flat and returned it 70 yards down the left side to give the Stars (1-1) the lead for good with 5:39 remaining. The Steelmen (0-2) looked to be in the driver’s seat after Tommie Sherman scored on a 5-yard run with 9:35 left to make it 12-8, and then 45 seconds later, Malek Harden picked off his second pass of the day to give Central the ball at its 45. However, five plays later, Sudduth was off to the races and the Stars were the ones who were celebrating. After Rich South scored a touchdown on its initial series, the Steelmen created three turnovers, forced four punts and stopped the Stars on downs on another possession. The Steelmen owned a 267195 advantage in total yards, which included a 155-36 edge on the ground. The Stars had 36 rushing yards on 28 carries. Some leading Central tacklers included Matt Key, Jomorrie McNair and Cameron Harvey, who also recovered a fumble. “Not getting the win hurts,” Steelmen coach Brett Boyter said. “But we showed a lot of growth from week one to two. It’s good to see what these guys are capable of doing and the growth that

they can continue to make. We have a freshman quarterback (Zach Wisneski) who did a great job and that pick isn’t on him, I told the guys that it’s on me. “Our defense played great and they kept us in the game. Other teams may have dropped their heads and let the game get out of control after that first series but the kids got it together and played disciplined. Watching the film won’t be fun, but when they see the success they can have when they disciplined football, we can have a lot more fun.” Rich South scored 4:02 into the game when Nicholas Cooks tossed a pass over the middle to Sudduth, who got past defenders and went 37 yards on the play. The same combination hooked up for the two-point conversion. After the Steelmen came up empty on three trips into Stars territory, Sherman capped an 11-play, 63-yard drive for the squad’s initial score of the season with 1:00 left in the half. The extra-point attempt failed and the score remained 8-6 at the break. The Steelmen took their only lead early in the final period when Sherman scored on a 5-yard run to the left side that completed a nine-play, 72yard drive. Sherman finished the game with 156 rushing yards on 34 carries as well as two receptions for 26 yards. Quarterback Zach Wisneski completed 8-of-22 passes for 112 yards. “I’m proud of my team and how we played our hearts out,” Sherman said. “It’s sad that we couldn’t come up with the win but everybody on this team played all out. We all tried to have the biggest games of our lives, but I just wish that we could have come out with the win. This was the best effort that I’ve seen during all four years that I’ve been here.”

JOLIET WEST 35, CHICAGO KING 34

Joliet West survives wild one By DICK GOSS

dgoss@shawmedia.com JOLIET – Joliet West coach Jason Aubry noted the progress in the Tigers’ football program. “In past years, we lost games like this,” Aubry said after Saturday afternoon’s wild 35-34 nonconference victory over Chicago King in the Tigers’ home opener. “Now we’re winning them. The bottom line is, a win is a win.” The Tigers (2-0) led 28-16 after three quarters but fell back into a 28-28 tie with 3:56 left. All that prevented King from taking a 30-28 lead was safety Jacob Pullen breaking up King’s two-point conversion pass. On the ensuing kickoff, the ball went through the arms of sophomore returner Justin LaBuhn at the 17-yard line. He picked it up on the 19, and the ball was on the ground just

long enough to mess up King’s coverage. LaBuhn burst up the middle and broke free to the right side for the 81-yard return that put the Tigers back ahead, 3428. Kyle Kopchak’s extra point made it 35-28. “It does mess up the coverage when a guy fumbles it,” Aubry said of LaBuhn’s return. “They run down the field harder, and the return man goes right past them. I know, I’ve been on the other side of that many times in my career.” But that’s not to belittle what LaBuhn accomplished. “That return was so big,” Aubry said. “Justin will be a big-time player. We’ll use him in a lot of ways.” “I saw the wedge earlier and all of them [Jaguars] were crashing inside, so I tried to go outside,” LaBuhn said. “It was an amazing feeling knowing that after that, we could even-

tually win the game.” Of course, King didn’t quit. The Jaguars (1-1) went 57 yards in three plays to get within 3534, but the failed conversion allowed West to stay on top. King regained possession with 1:22 left and made one first down but got no farther than midfield. Now, the Tigers prepare for the SouthWest Suburban Blue wars, with Homewood-Flossmoor up first. “Teams like Bolingbrook and H-F may be more powerful [than King], but King has as much speed as any team in our conference,” said West safety Collin Talkie, one of the heroes of a first half where the Tigers rallied to take a 21-16 into the break. Talkie intercepted two passes in the second quarter, the second of the spectacular variety. “I was just playing my po-

sition,” Talkie said. “[Cornerback] John Anderson said he was there and had it, and I took it from him.” Is that version OK with Talkie? “Yeah, it’s fine if we say that,” he said with a smile. West, trailing much of the first half, showed big-play ability as junior quarterback Alex Tibble threw a 36-yard touchdown strike to Kyle Henderson, ran 31 yards for a score around left end and found Evan French for an 84-yard TD on a post pattern. Tibble finished with 75 rushing yards in 12 carries and completed 9-of-16 passes for 184 yards. Jacob Coyl scored on a 1-yard run in the third quarter to make it 28-16 but was limited to 25 yards in 17 carries. “King is good,” Aubry said. “They are big and athletic. I wouldn’t doubt if they’re going to go 8-1 now. That will be good for our playoff points.”

PLAINFIELD – After Plainfield Central’s Week 1 loss to Marmion Academy, the Wildcats decided to change things up on the offensive side of the ball, starting sophomore Marcus Hayes at quarterback in Friday night’s home opener. The transition for the new quarterback was apparent as the Wildcats struggled to put long drives together in the first half. But after giving up 14 quick points to St. Charles North, Central’s defense made quick adjustments and stood up to the test in a 14-9 defeat. “Defensively we’re coming along,” Central coach John Jackson explained. “I was very pleased with their progression.” After an hour-long lightning delay, the Wildcats found a spark of their own in the third quarter as Hayes threw a 23-yard touchdown pass to Jarod Petrovic to cut the North Stars’ lead to 14-6. The conversion failed. Central carried that spark into the next series as St. Charles North’s punter mishandled a snap and Central recovered the ball on the North Stars’ 40-yard line. The Wildcats drove the ball down to North’s 3-yard line but settled for a field goal to make it 14-9. On the next kickoff, Central recovered a pooch kick to set up the Wildcats on the North Stars’ 35yard line. An interception a few plays later sealed North’s victory. “We played are butts off,” Jackson said. “I’m pleased with the way we played. We got better this week against a team that I thought was faster and a little more physical.”

MORRIS 12, METAMORA 8

Sobol, Morris hold off Metamora By ROB OESTERLE

roesterle@shawmedia.com MORRIS – Nearly everyone expected a close, hard-fought game when Morris and Metamora kicked off Friday night. They got what they expected, in a close, heart-pounding Redskins victory, 12-8. Metamora scored first on a 19-yard touchdown pass from Nick Holman to Jacob Mitchell on a fourth-and-9 play in the second quarter. A two-point conversion run by Zach Rohrback made it 8-0. On the ensuing kickoff, Morris’ Joey Webb picked up the ball at his own 20 and broke through a seam in the middle before finally being brought down at the Metamora 27. A play later, Morris quarterback Griffin Sobol kept the ball on an option and ran 28 yards through the middle for a touchdown. The Redskins’ two-point conversion failed, and Metamora kept an 8-6 lead, which it took into halftime. The two teams were nearly equal in yardage in the first half, with Metamora holding a slight edge, 164-105. Morris reached the red zone late in the third quarter, but a 26-yard field-goal attempt sailed wide left. The Morris de-

down, giving the Redskins a 12-8 lead with 4:04 to play. The two-point conversion failed, but Morris had the all-important lead. The play call, much like the rest of the game, was a team effort. “At the timeout before that play, (Morris head) coach (Alan) Thorson, (assistant) coach (Bill) Lauer and I all called that play,” Sobol said. “I knew it would be open. The last couple of plays, we ran flare patterns and their linebackers were heading out toward them like sons of guns. When I tucked it, our linemen blocked great and the middle of their defense opened up like a book and it was wide open.” Sobol finished with a teamhigh 98 yards rushing on eight carries and scored both touchdowns. He was also 8 of 12 for 90 yards through the air. Defensively, Keagan Sobol was credited with six tackles, Craig Lincoln for Shaw Media with T.J.

FOOTBALL: LAKE PARK 25, LOCKPORT 6

Lockport falls to Lake Park in ‘turf’ debut By JEFF DEGRAW

Shaw Media Correspondent LOCKPORT – Lockport’s football team was looking for a positive result as it played the first game on its new turf field. But rain, another lightning delay and many missed opportunities put a damper on things as the Porters dropped a 25-6 nonconference game Friday to Lake Park. “What could go wrong, did go wrong. We had so many missed opportunities, especially before the delay”, said Porters coach Dan Starkey. “It’s like when you learning to drive a stick-shift car. It’s rough at the start, but the more

you work at it, the smoother it gets. We didn’t run the ball well, and at times a little doubt creeps into our minds.” The Porters (0-2) went three-and-out on their first two possessions. Lake Park (2-0) scored first on a fourthand-9 from the Lockport 26 on a 26-yard pass from quarterback Michael Perry to Tommie Jackson over the middle to make it 7-0 with 5:21 to go in the first quarter. Lockport came right back on a 50-yard pass from Jeremy Quade to Sean Kelley 50 to get the Porters to the Lake Park 30 yard line, but a 7-yard run, a holding call and two incomplete passes led to a fourth-

and-13. Quade attempted a screen pass and Lake Park’s defensive lineman Jacub Panasiuk intercepted the pass and went 36 yards to the Lockport 32. Two more Porter penalties set up an 8-yard touchdown run by running back Kevin Jones with 56 seconds left in the quarter. Lightning delayed the game for about an hour before Lockport and Lake Park exchanged punts with the Porters getting the ball on their own seven. Quade was called for intentional grounding in the end zone, resulting in a safety to make the score 16-0. On the free kick, Lake Park

had a 45-yard return, and three plays later Perry hit Jones for their second touchdown from 12 yards out to give the Lancers a 22-0 lead with 7:50 remaining in the half. Again, the Porters came right back with a 49-yard kickoff return by Jon Zapotoczny. Following a 1-yard run by Matt Skobel, Quade threw a 43-yard touchdown pass to Kelley, who made the leaping catch. It was the second week in a row that the Quade-to-Kelley tandem scored on a long pass play. A missed extra point made the score 22-6 with 7:00 remaining in the first half. Lake Park took the sec-

ond-half kickoff and had an eight-play drive to set up the final score on a 24-yard field goal. Lockport recovered two Lancer fumbles in the second half but could not capitalize on any opportunities. Jones was the workhorse for Lake Park, carrying the ball 23 times for 125 yards and one touchdown. The Porters, who open conference play Friday at Sandburg, rushed the ball for 35 total yards on 25 carries. Quade was 4 of 13 for 147 yards passing. Kelley had three receptions for 98 yards and Brian Bellair had one catch for 49 yards.

PLAINFIELD CENTRAL BOYS, GIRLS CROSS COUNTRY INVITE

Lockport girls, Bollinger, Rosendo win invite titles By SCOTT A. EHLING

Shaw Media Correspondent PLAINFIELD – Lockport girl’s cross country coach Evon Schlotter was more than happy to see five of her Porter girls finish in the top nine and outduel Lemont for first place in the Plainfield Central Wildcat Invitational on Saturday morning. “I told them that I didn’t care what place they came in but that this is where I wanted to see them after two miles,” Schlotter said. “They blew me away because they all did exactly what I wanted them to do and then at two miles it became a workout.” The overall winner was Lockport sophomore Morgan Bollinger (19:18.36) with senior teammate Emmie Hahn (19:20.51) finishing a close second.

Fellow Porters Haley Beaumont (19:25.06), Emily Stoklosa (19:44.29) and Karlee Stortz (19:45.22) rounded out the team’s top five. “At this early in the season, we’re trying to see the unity that the team has and how far they are pushing each other,” Schlotter said. “We want to see how many cowgirls we have.” Lemont was paced by third-place finisher Taylor Campos (19:22.03), Gabby Voltarel (19:32.71) and Bridget Kunkel (19:37.99). Campos and Voltarel pushed the pace early for Lemont and continued to do so through the second mile when the pack of Porters made their move. Finishing 1-2 was a great start to the season for Bollinger and Hahn and the Porters program.

“The team did an amazing job of staying together through two miles and we all kicked it in at the end,” Bollinger said. “We just talked to each other throughout the race and pushed each other,” Hahn said. “We knew going in what we were up against in Lockport as I have coached against Evon (Schlotter) for 22 years now and I know how she runs things,” Lemont coach Tim Plotke said. “For our first invite of the year I am real happy with what they did.” On the boy’s side, Whitney Young placed first as a team with Joliet Central finishing second and Oak Lawn third out of 16 teams. Lincoln-Way East, Providence and Romeoville were fifth, sixth and seventh, respectively.

Joliet Central senior Raul Rosendo finished first in 15:36.27, while teammate Vince Moreno claimed 10th in 16:17.01. “Coming into the race I knew that I had a chance to get top three,” Rosendo said. “I planned not to go out with everybody else and just stuck behind them until I kicked it in the last mile.” The second-place team finish and first-place individual finish were definite causes for excitement early in the season for Joliet Central coach Doug Cherry. “It was awesome to see Raul and pretty excited overall,” Cherry said. “We knew he (Rosendo) could run but we didn’t quite know what everyone else had this early in the season. We’re missing one guy out of our top-five but others stepped up.”

Pirates get two big wins against Cubs The ASSOCIATED PRESS CHICAGO – Francisco Liriano struck out nine in six innings, and the Pittsburgh Pirates beat the Cubs, 5-0, on Saturday for their second win of the day. The Pirates also got a 5-3 victory in 11 innings in the resumption of the suspended series opener. Josh Harrison hit a tiebreaking RBI single and finished with four hits. Pittsburgh had lost four in a row before the pair of victories at Wrigley Field. It began the day in third in the NL Central, five back of the Cardinals, and two games behind in the wild-card race. Andrew McCutchen had three hits in the second game for the Pirates, who improved to 11-4 against the Cubs this year. Jordy Mercer hit an RBI single in the first and a leadoff homer in the ninth.

Cubs relief pitcher Neil Ramirez delivers during the seventh inning Saturday’s game against the Pittsburgh Pirates continued from Friday’s rain delay at Wrigley Field. Liriano (4-10) allowed three hits and walked two in his first win since July 29. The veteran left-hander went 0-3 with a 3.75 ERA in six August starts. Justin Wilson, Jared Hughes and Brandon Cumpton each pitched an inning to complete the six-hitter.

Felix Doubront (1-1) pitched five innings in his second game with the Cubs. The lefty, who was acquired in a July 30 trade with Boston, gave up two runs and five hits. Friday’s series opener was suspended by rain with one out in the top of the seventh inning.

Indians 3, White Sox 1: At Cleveland, Corey Kluber pitched a five-hitter to win for the first time in a month, rookie Jose Ramirez hit a goahead triple in a two-run seventh inning and the Cleveland Indians beat the White Sox, 3-1, on Saturday. Kluber (14-9) allowed an unearned run, struck out eight and walked none in his third big league complete game – all this season. He had been 0-3 in four starts since winning at the New York Yankees on Aug. 9 and in his previous start allowed a career-high three homers in a 12-1 loss to Detroit on Monday. Third-place Cleveland closed within five games of first-place Kansas City in the AL Central. The Indians are four games back of Seattle, which played later Saturday, for the AL’s second wild card spot.

Opener against Bills must-win contest What exactly are the Bears walking into in their 2014 season opener Sunday at Soldier Field against the Buffalo Bills? For starters it’s a game they must win. What’s that I say, a mustwin on the opening Sunday of the season? In general manager Phil Emery’s own words, the Bears have been built to contend for a championship this year. Coach Marc Trestman was given high marks in his first season in spite of taking over a 10-6 ballclub and leading them to an 8-8 finish. A loss to the battling Bickersons – coming off a 6-10 campaign of their own – in the home opener would minimally send the wrong message to everyone connected to the Bears. Worse than that, the Bears follow Buffalo with five of seven on the road, including trips to San Francisco, the N.Y. Jets, Carolina, Atlanta

and New England, and one of their home opponents is the Packers, who have fared quite well of late at Soldier Field. 4-4 at the halfway point would leave the Bears playoff hopes in pretty good shape, and even 3-5 probably manageable. But with a loss to Buffalo, where are those three or four wins? In case you don’t get the Bickersons reference, the Bills have been reported to be a franchise in disarray. It is well known the Wilson family is lame duck ownership as the team is for sale with a deal expected shortly. A situation that always leaves top management less than comfortable. It wouldn’t be surprising if team president Russ Brandon, general manager Doug Whaley and coach Doug Marrone are all spending more time looking over their shoulders than they are at their players, playbooks and game plans.

BEARS INSIDER Hub Arkush A report by CBS’ Jason La Canfora on the Friday before the opener alleges a pier six verbal brawl took place between Marrone, Whaley and Marrone recently on the practice field with all three swearing at each other within earshot of the full team. If accurate, how’s that for a pregame warmup? Have Bills players been affected in the same way coaching and management appears to be by its current limbo? Or could it be a positive that will cause them to circle the wagons and go with the old all for one and one for all mantra? Buffalo is a ballclub with a young quarterback who appears to at best still be a work in progress, a great pair of running backs, two exciting

young wide receivers who have yet to establish themselves and some strengths and a few big question marks on the offensive line. Defensively, Buffalo boasts one of the best four-man front defensive lines in the NFL and a back seven ravaged by injury at linebacker and free agency defection in the secondary. They do have one of the NFL’s premier returners in Leodis McKelvin who will challenge the Bears shaky coverage units. Still, if the Bears are actual playoff contenders, this is a game they have to win. They do win if their offensive line can play the Bills’ three Pro Bowlers up front, Mario Williams, Marcel Dareus and Kyle Williams to a draw, and if their all new defensive line is a huge improvement over last year. Buffalo left tackle Cordy Glenn is pretty good, and center Eric Wood is one of the

best. The right guard and right tackle, Erik Pears and rookie Seantrel Henderson, are question marks, and at left guard for the Bills, you will find Chris Williams. Yes, that Chris Williams. You should know by now the Bills were second in the NFL running the football last year, and I know you know the Bears were dead last stopping it. There’s your ballgame. The Bears are not better at linebacker or in the secondary. I guess it’s appropriate with such dramatic change for the Bears that Week 1 will be decided by the Bears’ defensive line. Are they as good as advertised? They better be good enough. • Chicago Football editor Hub Arkush can be reached at harkush@chicagofootball. com and on Twitter @Hub_ Arkush.

NIU downs Northwestern By STEVE NITZ

snitz@shawmedia.com

Danielle Guerra – dguerra@shawmedia.com

Northern Illinois running back Cameron Stingily carries the ball 17 yards while Northwestern’s Michael Panico drags him down from behind during the third quarter on Saturday at Ryan Field in Evanston.

EVANSTON – It was a game of musical chairs Saturday involving Northern Illinois quarterbacks at Northwestern. But it was sophomore Drew Hare who was the last man standing, leading NIU to a 23-15 win, their its straight over a Big Ten team, first against either in-state opponents Northwestern or Illinois and its second straight win to start the season. Hare went 6 for 10 with two touchdown passes in the win in front of a crowd of 41,139 – at least half of which could have been NIU fans. “He came in that first drive and completed a couple balls and got us down there,” NIU coach Rod Carey said. “It’s not a, all the sudden there’s a stakein-the-ground moment, it’s a, you see the flow of the game and all the sudden, Drew, you’re staying in.”

Junior Matt McIntosh – who Carey named the starter earlier this week, was inconsistent early on, going 4 of 9 during his time in the first half. He would give way to sophomore Anthony Maddie, who went 3 of 4 on his only drive and gave the Huskies some life. Hare entered the game in the third quarter, and got the offense on the board and into the end zone. Hare led NIU (2-0) on its first scoring drive – a 32yard field goal by Tyler Wedel. With 52 seconds left in the third, Hare got the ball between two Northwestern (0-2) defensive backs for an 18-yard touchdown pass to senior wideout Da’Ron Brown, who would finish with 128 receiving yards. Carey said the plan was to play all three quarterbacks. “We knew, and Drew knew and Maddie knew. We told Drew to be on the ready. We didn’t know when it was going to come,” Carey said. “We

knew we were going to get him in there, we hadn’t had him in with the ones yet, so we knew we were going to get him in with the ones in the first half. Plan went well, and Drew came in and played great. We’ve got three good quarterbacks, I’ve been telling you that. “It’s a good problem to have. Nonetheless, it’s a problem.” Hare and Brown would hook up again with seven minutes left for a 59-yard score. “Our line, they did a heck of a job all day. I dropped back, saw the coverage I liked to throw to Da’Ron [in],” Hare said. “He ran by the safety and made a play.” Fittingly, it was Brown who recovered a last-minute onside kick. So, what’s the plan for the quarterbacks now? “I don’t know,” Carey said. “We’ve got 24 hours to enjoy a victory. We’ll get back, watch the film. We’ll dissect, do what we do and we’ll go forward from there.”

Wildcats find ways to bury themselves in 2nd half EVANSTON – One step forward, two steps back. After two weeks into what Northwestern coach Pat Fitzgerald hoped would be a comeback year, his team sits at 0-2 – the first time the Wildcats have been in such a predicament since 2004. Five days before the Wildcats dropped their straight second game, Fitzgerald had refused to look at Saturday’s in-state test against Northern Illinois as a must-win. But after a 23-15 loss in which quarterback Trevor Siemian said he and his teammates were forced to try to beat not only Northern Illinois, but themselves, Fitzgerald attempted to put what has already been a disappointing season into perspective. “Obviously,” Fitzgerald started, “[it’s] not the position we want to be in right now two weeks in.” After a loss in which the Wildcats were penalized nine times for 93 yards – many of which either killed Northwestern drives or extended the time NIU had the ball – coming off a game in which

the offensive line couldn’t protect Siemian and in which the defense got worse as the game played on, there is clearly plenty to fix. Hoping to bounce back Saturday from a loss to California during which Northwestern fell into a 31-7 hole, the Wildcats again buried themselves, falling behind to NIU, 23-7, after coming out of the halftime locker room deadlocked in a scoreless tie. In the times when the Wildcats managed to make plays, managed to cover positive yardage and managed to look like a team determined to leave its Week 1 struggles in the past, Northwestern self-imploded. Continuously. “That’s obviously our problem,” Fitzgerald said. “We’re so inconsistent that it allows you to think you’ve got something moving, and all of a sudden, we go out and do something uncharacteristic. We’ve got a lot of work to do.” Heading into a much-needed bye week, Northwestern has two weeks to clean up before Western Illinois visits

VIEWS Jeff Arnold Ryan Field. For a team that faced offseason distractions and that has already been torn apart by injuries to key players, restoring some level of morale over the next 14 days will be imperative for a program that has now lost nine of its last 10 games. After Saturday’s loss, Northwestern players repeated they think the program will be fine after what can another loss that isn’t easily digestible. Yes, NIU has grabbed at least a share of each of the past four Mid-American Conference championships. But in a game in which Northwestern had every chance to grab control after taking a 10-7 third-quarter lead, the Wildcats must now take a long, hard look at themselves and figure out where things will go from here. “We’ve just got to keep moving on,” said receiver

Kyle Prater, who had seven catches for 87 yards and a touchdown. “We’re just getting hit with a little bit of adversity right now, and it’s nothing we can’t overcome.” Prater referred to his teammates as family – one that needs to stick together through the tough times and hope for better days ahead. But with so much to fix and so many different areas of concern to address, there is plenty of work to be done. And not a lot of time to do it. Siemian did his to remain hopeful, even in the face of so many things having gone wrong Saturday afternoon. Siemian refused to point out one particular problem on an offense that, for the second straight week, never really seemed to get going. He wouldn’t single out the offensive line that broke down in protection too many times or the receivers that dropped balls in open space. Instead, did his best to begin to glue things back together. “Going back to this spring, I said this is the most talented team I’ve been on,” Siemian

said. “But there’s just a lot of self-inflicted wounds. Both last week (against Cal) and this week.” Fitzgerald now faces the challenge of putting the pieces of his team back together before things completely fall apart. Yes, the Wildcats have time to turn things around. But establishing a sense of urgency that has been lacking thus far this season should be included in the broken pieces that need fixing. Perhaps with two weeks now to move on from two forgettable weeks, a new team emerges against Western Illinois. But like with any selfhelp program, the first step is admitting that a problem exists. After Saturday, there’s no doubt. And Fitzgerald knows it. “Being in the hole we are right now, if that’s not dire,” Fitzgerald said, ‘then we’ve got a problem.”

NO. 16 NOTRE DAME 31, MICHIGAN 0

By RALPH D. RUSSO The Associated Press

the top spot by beating the Fighting Irish. Notre Dame and Michigan may not love each other, especially these days, but they’ve always seemed to like being associated with one another. Classic uniforms. Recognizable fight songs (they sound a little alike to an untrained ear). They both tout their high academic standards and doing things the right way. The traditional early season meeting between the Irish and Wolverines has always been a measuring stick. But things change. Notre Dame now has artificial turf and an interlocking ND logo at midfield. And Michigan has now been shut out for the first time in 30 years. The golden domes and winged helmets will now go their separate ways. Michigan leads the series 24-17-1, but Notre Dame will get to bask in this one for a while.

BIG TEN ROUNDUP

Illinois comes back to knock off Western Kentucky The ASSOCIATED PRESS

CHAMPAIGN – Illinois found itself Saturday in the same place it was a week ago: down in the second half to the kind of team Big Ten schools schedule with comfortable wins in mind. And for the second straight week, they looked to quarterback Wes Lunt to bail them out. Lunt, with a big hand from safety Taylor Barton, delivered, turning what would have been an embarrassing loss into a 4234 win over Western Kentucky. A week earlier Illinois (2-0) had to come from behind to beat Football Championship Subdivision school Youngstown State. “I asked them in the locker room, ‘Please don’t do that anymore. I’m getting old, my heart is getting bad,’ ” Illinois coach Tim Beckman said. “We’re not where we want to be by any means, but it was good to see and I was glad for our kids.” The Hilltoppers (1-1) believed they let a potential win slip through their fingers. They

led, 17-7, in the second quarter and, 24-21, in the third. “We thought momentum completely swung our way. We feel like this one did get away from us,” said linebacker Nick Holt, who led Western Kentucky with 12 tackles. “We’ve got to finish in the fourth quarter.” The undefeated start for Illinois looks good in the standings, and Lunt had a big day with three touchdowns and 456 yards on 35 of 50 passing.

At Tampa, Florida, C.J. Brown threw for two touchdowns and Avery Thompson recovered a blocked punt in the end zone for a fourth-quarter TD that helped Maryland beat South Florida. Marcus Leak scored on receptions of 10 and 44 yards for the Terrapins (2-0), who overcame six turnovers, including a pair of interceptions that stopped promising drives.

sin, Tanner McEvoy overcame a slow start to throw for three touchdowns and run for another, and No. 18 Wisconsin pulled away from second-tier Western Illinois. Melvin Gordon ran for just 38 yards on 17 carries with the Fighting Leathernecks (1-1) consistently stacking the box against one of the country’s best rushers. McEvoy shook off a couple bad throws early to finish 23 of 28 for 283 yards with one interception.

shirt freshman Devon Allen, and the No. 3 Oregon Ducks’ blur offense prevailed over No. 7 Michigan State’s stout defense.

No. 3 Oregon 46, No. 7 Michigan State 27: At Eugene, Oregon,

Marcus Mariota threw for 318

No. 18 Wisconsin 37, Western yards and three touchdowns, Illinois 3: At Madison, Wiscon- including a pair to speedy red-

No. 19 Nebraska 31, McNeese St. 24: At Lincoln, Nebraska,

Ameer Abdullah’s jaw-dropping 58-yard touchdown after a short pass from Tommy Armstrong Jr. broke a tie with 20 seconds left and allowed No. 19 Nebraska to beat FCS McNeese State. McNeese State erased a 10-point deficit to tie Nebraska Maryland 24, South Florida 17: (2-0) at 24-all with 4:21 to play.

The Huskers’ winning possession started with 1:14 to play, and they were facing thirdand-6 when Abdullah made the play of his career.

Minnesota 35, Middle Tennessee 24: At Minneapolis, David

Cobb had 29 carries for two touchdowns and a career-high 220 yards, the most for the program in nine years, and Minnesota outlasted Middle Tennessee. Donnell Kirkwood also had a first-quarter touchdown run for the Golden Gophers (2-0), who rushed for 284 yards. Iowa 17, Ball State 13: At Iowa City, Iowa, Iowa’s Jake Duzey caught a go-ahead 12-yard touchdown pass from Jake Rudock with a minute left in a win over Ball State. Rudock threw for 322 yards and completed 9 of 11 passes on the Hawkeyes’ two scoring drives in the final 6 minutes.

Central Michigan 38, Purdue 17: At West LaFayette, Indiana,

Cooper Rush threw two touchdown passes and Thomas Rawls ran for two more scores, giving Central Michigan a surprising

victory at Purdue. The Chippewas (2-0) beat a Big Ten foe for the second time in three seasons and improved to 6-23 against teams currently in the conference. Rutgers 38, Howard 25: At Piscataway, New Jersey, Gary Nova threw four touchdowns and halfback Paul James had his second-straight three-touchdown game to lead Rutgers to a victory over Howard. Nova connected with James on scoring passes of 69 and 31 yards and added tosses of 38 yards to Leonte Carroo and 19 to John Tsimis as the Scarlet Knights (2-0) scored 31 straight first-half points to overcome an early deficit. Penn St. 21, Akron 3: At University Park, Pennsylvania, Christian Hackenberg threw for three touchdowns and 319 yards and Penn State was able to overcome its own offensive inconsistency to beat Akron. The Nittany Lions (2-0) totaled 425 yards total offense but two interceptions and a fumble kept Akron (1-1) within reach until late in the game.

SOUTH BEND, Ind. – Everett Golson threw three touchdown passes and No. 16 Notre Dame said so long to Michigan on Saturday night with a 31-0 victory, the Fighting Irish’s most dominant performance in the historic rivalry that’s now about to take a hiatus. Game No. 42 in a rivalry that has been off-and-on for more than 100 years is the last scheduled. Notre Dame broke off the series a couple years ago to make room on its schedule to accommodate its new arrangement with the Atlantic Coast Conference. Michigan didn’t take it well. But with a chance to take a parting shot at the Irish, the Wolverines got hit with a haymaker and were handed their most lopsided loss in the series. And they were shut out for the first time since 1984,

longer, considering the circumstances. Notre Dame asked out of the series three years ago. Coach Brady Hoke jokingly accused the Fighting Irish of chickening out before last year’s game at Ann Arbor. Then after Michigan beat the Irish, “The Chicken Dance” blared through the sound system at the Big House. No hard feelings? Well, maybe it was just a coincidence that this week Notre Dame announced a future home-and-home with Ohio State, Michigan’s hated rival – and a team that has owned the AP Photo Wolverines in recent years. Still, this is a rivalry that Notre Dame quarterback Everett Golson throws against Michigan has been generally quite civil during the first half of Saturday’s game in South Bend, Ind. in recent years.

One lucky couple

Romeoville man shares how he and his wife built a legacy FAMILY TREE

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

ROMEOVILLE – When Tom Stanek of Romeoville first saw the girl who would one day become his wife, he was with a friend and they were seeking another girl. “My buddy had a girl he liked,” Tom said, “and she lived next door to Dee.” Tom never dreamed that he and Dee would build a marriage 68 years strong, look back with pride on the 10 children they raised and enjoy their 24 grandchildren and eight great-grandchildren in their golden years, as most of them live just 30 minutes away. “Dee always says we’re a lucky couple,” Tom said, “and that we didn’t screw anything up.” In their sophomore year of high school, Tom started walking Dee to and from school. They dated when they reached datable age, Tom said, but they didn’t get married until Tom was nearly done serving in the U.S. Air Force. Tom was a radio operator, trained to serve on B-17s and B-29s. Tom and Dee didn’t have any children for the first few years of their marriage, but they didn’t consider it unusual, Tom said. Tom had one sister and Dee grew up as an only child. Her two younger brothers died at an early age, Tom said. All of a sudden, the couple was expecting a baby and then another one after that and then another one, Tom said. They had 10 children in 14 years. Just as suddenly, they stopped having children. Neither the having, nor the not having, was by design, Tom said. “It was a miracle,” Tom said. As a real estate agent – a job Tom worked until he was 82 – Tom said he was able to

Getting there entailed loading up – and then driving – two vehicles. Once there, they worked together setting up two 14 x 10 tents at the campsite, he added. “Dee wasn’t happy about it [camping], but she did it, and we had good times,” Tom said. “People would stop to watch us set up camp.” provide his family a comfortTom credits Dee with dolable living.

drove them to Chicago for bicycle rides around Lake Michigan. Once, Tom said, they biked all the way to Evanston. That tradition of family bike rides continued into adulthood, with Tom still making the trek with his children until he was 80, he said. As grandparents, Tom said they were involved, but not to the extent of overdoing it. Now that Tom and Dee had time to themselves, they have traveled to Guatemala, El Salvador, Hawaii and California. For many years, Tom and Dee hosted the holidays in the large home, with Dee spearheading the organization and the food, he said. They attended family picnics at nearby parks and many of the grandchildren’s sporting events, as well as a few dance recitals. When he and Dee finally downsized into an Orland

So despite having built a legacy that Tom and Dee can view with pride, Tom’s advice to parents, grandparents – really anyone with people they love in their lives – is simple. “Stay close,” Tom said.

The ceremony will include the posting of colors, tolling of the bell, a 21-gun salute, the playing of “Taps” and more. All uniformed personnel planning to attend are asked to wear their uniforms. After JJC’s 9/11 ceremony, the public is invited to watch a movie called “In Memoriam: New York City, 9/11/01.” The hour-long film created in 2002, which will play in the campus center cafeteria, is set to begin immediately after JJC’s 9/11 ceremony concludes.

BRIDGE by Phillip Alder

The errors continue to be produced

CELEBRITY CIPHER

James Joyce said, “A man of genius makes no mistakes. His errors are volitional and are the portals of discovery.” This week, we have seen deals featuring errors by players who are not bridge geniuses, from which we can learn. And here is another. What do you think of the bidding and what should happen in four spades after West leads the heart three? North’s jump to three spades showed four-card support but less than game-invitational values. With a stronger hand, North would have made a three-heart cue-bid raise. This is an excellent idea because it allows the advancer (or the responder, if South had opened and West overcalled) to show either a weak, distributional raise or a high-card raise. Should East have rebid four hearts? Yes, perhaps that contract was making. No, because it was almost certain to push South into bidding four spades, which East could not be sure of defeating. Here, though, South was going to bid four spades regardless. Since West had supported hearts, his low-heart lead guaranteed at least one honor in the suit. East, hoping that honor was the king, took the first trick with his ace and returned a heart. However, South won with the king and cashed his two top trumps. When the queen dropped, South claimed. At trick two, East should have shifted to his singleton diamond. Here, that would have worked perfectly. West would have won with his ace and given his partner a diamond ruff. East would then have cashed the club ace for down one.

ADVICE

Man longs for thrill of brand-new romance Dear Abby: I’m in desperate need of help. I have been with my girlfriend for four years. With every long-term relationship, there are bound to be issues. I haven’t felt loved by her in a long time, and I think I have fallen out of love with her. I can’t even tell her that I love her anymore because I don’t want to lie. I want to feel the way I used to about her. When I was near her, my hairs used to stand up. How can I feel that way about her again? – Wants That Old Feeling Dear Wants: The problem with relationships is that they can only be brand-new once. With the passage of time, to some extent the excitement fades. That’s where the “work” comes in. Longtime couples must make an effort to keep their relationship fresh and exciting. You say you haven’t felt loved by her in a long time. My advice would be to talk to her about it.

DEAR ABBY Jeanne Phillips Because you can’t bring yourself to tell her you love her, has it occurred to you that she might feel as though she has been emotionally abandoned by you? You and your lady will need to resume communication on a meaningful level. Honesty can revive a relationship that’s wilting. Dear Abby: I live with my longtime boyfriend in a house he owns. We’re five hours away from my parents and siblings and the town in which I grew up. It’s a beautiful house with lots of land, and I can imagine raising a family here. However, I always thought that if I had children, I’d live close to the rest of my family. I would want my parents nearby so they could lend a hand, and I want my

kids to have a close relationship with their grandparents. My boyfriend is open to the idea of selling the house, but I’m not sure I would want him to. What should I do? – Looking Ahead In New Jersey Dear Looking Ahead: Before you make any decisions, discuss this with your parents and see if their vision of grandparenthood is similar to your fantasy. Be sure that the kind of extended family relationship you envision is realistic. If everyone is on board, then you and your boyfriend should talk about what relocating will mean in terms of not only selling this house, but also the impact it might have on your ability to earn a living. This property may be terrific, but if it cannot offer you the lifestyle you wish for, then you would be better served to move. But only you can decide that. • Write Dear Abby at www. dearabby.com.

Follow list of strategies to reduce belching Dear Doctor K: I burp constantly. What can I do to stop it? Dear Reader: Occasional burping usually results when foods produce gas during the digestive process and that gas escapes through your mouth. But if you’re burping frequently, it is almost certainly the result of swallowing air. Many people swallow air when they breathe or speak without even realizing it. You can probably reduce your belching by making lifestyle changes to decrease the amount of air you swallow. For example, don’t drink through a straw or chew gum. If you smoke, quit. Getting properly fitted dentures can help too, since loose dentures can also cause you to swallow air. One relatively common cause of burping and belching is lactose intolerance. Lactose is a type of sugar found in dairy products. Many people, particularly of African or Asian background, have low levels of lactase, an enzyme that digests lactose. As a result, not all of the lactose can be digested. Burping and belching result, along with diarrhea and passing gas. If you think you may have lactose intolerance, talk to your doctor and see if reducing dairy products improves your

ASK DOCTOR K Anthony L. Komaroff symptoms. If you don’t think you’ve got lactose intolerance, try making some other changes to your diet. For example, avoid carbonated drinks and whipped desserts, both of which trigger burping. On the other hand, some people include brown rice, barley broth, papaya and pineapple in their diets to reduce their belching. I’m not sure there is scientific evidence of the benefits of such remedies, but some of my patients swear by them. And, in any event, these are all healthy foods. Whatever you eat, make sure to chew foods slowly. Avoid washing food down with liquids. And try to eat smaller meals. Take a brisk stroll after eating. Physical activity encourages food to move through your digestive tract, and it helps relieve bloating and discomfort. Sleep on your stomach or right side. These positions aid in the escape of gas and ease the feeling of fullness. If belching remains a problem, talk to your doctor. He or she will

probably ask about habits I’ve already mentioned, such as drinking carbonated beverages and chewing gum. Your doctor may also ask about lactose intolerance or other conditions that may cause excess gas. Your doctor will also want to know about anxiety and psychological problems, since they can contribute to gastrointestinal symptoms. He or she will review your medications. Some drugs – especially those that contain the sugar alcohol sorbitol – can produce gas and bloating. Your doctor may also refer you to a speech and swallow therapist. This professional can help you modify the way you swallow so that you take in less air. If lifestyle changes aren’t effective, a muscle-relaxant drug can help. Burping and belching may not be a life-threatening problem, but it sure is embarrassing. And I’ve had patients become less socially active because of this embarrassment. I hope the advice I’ve given leads to a solution for you.

Sexual relationship with Romeo would not be love Dr. Wallace: My boyfriend and I are not having a sexual relationship just yet, but the way things are going, it is just a matter of time that it will happen – and soon. I will be prepared with condoms just in case, but getting pregnant is not the only thing I worry about. I’ve heard a lot of rumors that this guy has slept with a lot of girls and I’m really worried most about getting a sexually transmitted disease. I know that there is no guarantee with condoms and that it is still possible to get pregnant or get a sexually transmitted disease. Is there any way to find out, or any outward signs that he might be infected? – Nameless, Hammond, Louisiana Dear Nameless: It’s not possible to tell by outward appearance if someone has an STD. Most people who are infected look normal, and many are not even aware themselves that they are infected. This increases the chance that they’ll spread their highly contagious disease to others. Since you claim to be “really worried” about getting an STD, why would you even consider a sexual relationship? A sexual relationship with this Romeo would not be considered sharing love. It’s just old-fashioned lust! Dr. Wallace: I’m completely satisfied with the way I look except for the color of my hair. My hair is “mousey” brown, and I feel it robs me of being attractive. My stepmother likes my brown hair and thinks that changing the color of it would be

’TWEEN 12 & 20 Robert Wallace a mistake. What is your opinion of changing one’s hair color? – Lynn, Indianapolis, Indiana Dear Lynn: Hair colorist, Louis Licari, says that the old stereotypes – romantic redheads, pretty blondes, earthy brunettes – don’t hold true anymore. “No matter what your hair color is,” he says, “if it’s healthy and shiny, you’ll look zesty, confident and more attractive.” Take Mr. Licari’s advice and make sure your hair is healthy and shiny. Then, if you are still not satisfied with the result, change your hair color. Dr. Wallace: I’m 16, 5 feet 2 inches tall, and weigh 96 pounds. I’ve been trying to gain a little weight, but I still look slim. I’ve been told by my close friend that rumors are going around school that I’m anorexic, and this really bothers me a lot. I eat a lot of good foods such as fruits and veggies, but I don’t eat fattening junk food. What can I do to stop all these rumors? – Slender and Healthy, Naples, Florida

Dear Slender and Healthy: You don’t need

to change your healthy eating habits. Continue to eat nutritious meals, but always eat your lunch with a group. When your friends see you devour large quantities of healthy food, they’ll know you’re not anorexic. • Email Dr. Robert Wallace at rwallace@ galesburg.net.

(Witty!) career advice from David Sedaris By LILLIAN CUNNINGHAM The Washington Post

WASHINGTON – We sat down in The Washington Post’s audio studio with David Sedaris, the American humorist and the author of story collections including “Me Talk Pretty One Day” and most recently “Let’s Explore Diabetes with Owls.” That (funny) conversation with Sedaris became a recording to launch our new weekly On Leadership podcast series. Some of the other highlights from our conversation: ••• When asked who had the biggest influence on Sedaris’s own character: I think my father. One thing you can say about my father is that he’s not a hypocrite. My father didn’t want us to smoke, so he quit smoking. My father is the most disciplined person probably I’ve ever known. He would get up in the morning – we would laugh at him – he would get up and do these little exercises in the living room in his underpants. Every single morning. I don’t know if you can inherit discipline, but I never expected things to happen if you didn’t work every single day at them. I think, too, perhaps, from going to art school and being around artsy people before then, you start noticing how many people talk about being an artist of one sort or another but you never see them actually doing anything. All they do is talk about it. I think those people made me think more about my dad — that it was better not to talk about it, but just to go into a room and do it. ••• On what influenced his well-known habit of taking a lot of time with readers at book signings and events: When I first moved to Chicago, there was a bookstore near me called the Unabridged Bookstore. I remember I went and saw

The Washington Post photo

David Sedaris is an American humorist and the author of story collections including “Me Talk Pretty One Day” and, most recently, “Let’s Explore Diabetes with Owls.” this author and I bought her book – it was a hardcover book, and it was a lot of money at the time. I waited in line and when I got up there she didn’t look at me, she didn’t talk to me. She was talking to her publicist about what she was going to do for dinner. And I felt so betrayed. I just thought, I believed in you. And this was a lot of money. If it’s ever me at that table, things are going to be different. So, I was at Harvard’s bookstore the night before last and I signed books for 8 hours and 45 minutes. People were like, “Well, let me let you go.” I keep them so long at the table that they’re just desperate to get away from me. I mean, it took that long because I talk to everybody. I would never, ever say to anybody, “Well, there are a lot of people here,” or, “Thanks for coming.” There have been a few times the bookstore has come in and said something to that effect, and I get upset. I say, “Don’t! That person is probably burning with shame now. I don’t ever want to make someone feel that way. That’s

not how I want to be doing this.” People always come and they’ll say, “This must be exhausting.” And I think, what would possibly make you think that? It’s people standing in line to say how much they love you. It’s, like, all I ever dreamed of. ••• When asked if he thinks his humor has gotten better with age: If I look at books I wrote a long time ago, I can see myself trying too hard. It just fills me with shame. You should never let people see you trying. Quite often young people will give me their writing, and I see them doing it. And they’re kids – they’ll grow out of it. I grew out of it too. The only problem is I had some books that were written before I grew out of it. ••• On what writing does for Sedaris: It defines my mood, it defines my day. I don’t know that it’s cathartic. But I write in my diary every morning and nothing quite makes

sense to me until I put it on paper. I’m often ashamed of myself. That’s the beauty of a diary, though. It’s not for anyone else, so you’re not being a phony in it. I said to someone the other day – I don’t know who I was trying to kid – I said, “It’s not that hard being nice to people.” Which makes me sound like such a good guy. Then I thought about it later. And I thought, “No, it’s not that hard to be nice to nice people. It’s really hard to be nice to people who aren’t nice.” That’s work right there. ••• The best piece of advice he received: When the time is right, things will happen. People will come to you. Everybody is so pushy. Everybody says, “Well, it’s all who you know.” I don’t believe that. I think that if you just work really hard, somehow it shows. It makes you a certain kind of person. And there are other people who are a magnet for the kind of person you are if you’re truly creative.
