Joliet vet to be honored at Sox game There weren’t any parades or escorts for Juan Cepeda when he returned from his military service.

The Army veteran was drafted into the Vietnam War in 1965 to 1967. When he returned, it wasn’t to handshakes or thanks – it was to being called names.

“It was totally different than it is now, [where] people shake your hand, and say thanks for your service,” he said. “When I got home, there was no parade, no nothing.”

But Sunday, he is set to get the type of attention veterans deserve.

Juan is Sunday’s designated Hero of the Game who will be honored at the White Sox vs. Kansas City Royals game at 1:10 p.m.

This is the seventh year of the Hero of the Game tribute held at home White Sox games. The program – in partnership with the United Association of Plumbers and Pipefitters – honors a member of the military during a designated half-inning break, according to the White Sox’s website. Honorees are featured live on the

VIEWS Kate Schott scoreboard as a brief biography is read and photos can be displayed during the tribute.

Cepeda’s son, John Mares, nominated him. Thirty-five family members have tickets for the game, and American flags to wave as their personal hero is honored by thousands as Juan stands on the ballfield.

John said his father worked for 43 years in order to put four children through Catholic schools. Juan has been married to John’s mother, May, for 47 years, and his parents now live with John and his wife in Joliet.

“It’s the least I could do to honor my dad,” he said. “ ... Whatever I can do for my father, I do.”

Juan didn’t know John nominated him, and when he found out, he asked his son why.

Vanisko named general manager for Joliet, Morris, Yorkville publications SHAW MEDIA JOLIET – Steve Vanisko has been named general manager of The (Joliet) Herald-News, as well as its sister publications, the Morris-Herald-News and the Yorkville-based Kendall County Record group.

Vanisko is a lifelong Joliet resident who grad- Steve uated from Joliet Catholic Vanisko High School in 1982 and the University of Saint Francis in 1986.

He started with The Herald-News in December 1986 as an account executive, and has spent his entire career with The Herald-News and its affiliated publications, except for seven months in 2013 when he worked in Ottawa.

professional career,” Vanisko said.

Shaw Media has owned the Morris publication since the 1950s; it bought The (Joliet) Herald-News in January 2014 and the Kendall County Record group in June 2015.

The Record Newspapers include the Kendall County Record in Yorkville, the Oswego Ledger, the Plano Record and the Sandwich Record, as well as affiliated websites.

“Throughout his career with Shaw Media, Steve has proven to be an effective, innovative leader, and we are excited to see him continue to grow with our company,” Shaw Media General Manager J.Tom Shaw said.

“I said, ‘I love you.’ That’s all you can say,” John said.

“I was just stunned. My son, he is the type, he does things like that. He does a lot for us,” Juan said.

Juan is ready for the game: By Friday, he had a new hat that identifies him as a Vietnam veteran. He also has a new White Sox shirt, got his hair cut and has been practicing his wave.

And he is thrilled the family he is so proud of will be there to share in the day – and to see him as he gets the honor he did not receive when he returned from service.

“This makes me feel proud that I did serve,” Cepeda said of the Sunday’s honor.

“I’m not a hero, but I did serve.”

Developer plans third project on Joliet’s East Side

By BOB OKON

bokon@shawmedia.com JOLIET – A company redeveloping a Cass Street strip center is taking on another East Side commercial project.

The Joliet Plan Commission last week approved a plan to tear down five houses on Collins Street and replace them with two multi-tenant commercial buildings.

The new project, which will be on the east side of Collins Street and north of Cass Street, is near two other strip center projects that Aetna Development Corp. has done in the area.

The Chicago-based developer will build a Checkers restaurant as part of the redevelopment of a strip center at 457 E. Cass St. That center is across the

THE RIALTO I

RESIDENTS REMEMBER MOMENTS FROM JOLIET THEATER’S 90-YEAR HISTORY

f you’ve been to Joliet, chances are you have a memory involving the Rialto Square Theatre.

If you grew up here, it’s almost guaranteed.

In honor of the theater’s 90th birthday, The Herald-News asked readers to share what the Rialto means to them.

Those recollections are a testament to what the Jewel of Joliet means to the community.

– Bob Okon

Sam Alfeo

Sam Alfeo can speak to the personalities of stars who graced the stage of the Rialto.

He started working there in 1946 and spent parts of seven decades as a stagehand and projectionist.

He has worked under everyone from Liberace to Red Skelton, who Alfeo remembers generously staying after the show to sign autographs for the audience.

But the moment that stands out most to Alfeo was interacting with Pearl Bailey. She appreciated everyone who helped her rehearse during the day and perform later in the evening.

“Everyone that worked the show got a personal check from her,” Alfeo said. “I saved it as a souvenir.”

The 90-year-old Alfeo retired in the 2000s and received in 2015 a Gold Card for 50 years as a dues-paying stagehand. Over the years, he’s heard plenty of rumors about ghosts in the building. He hasn’t seen evidence of them.

“There’s no ghosts,” Alfeo said. “I’ve worked there at night and during the day.”

He has nothing but fond memories of the Rialto.

“It’s really been a wonderful ride,” Alfeo said.

Sam Ambrosini

loved to go to Broadway for the plays and was a World War II hero from the Battle of the Bulge.

• Electrician Leo O’Connor: “Whenever there was a technical problem, the familiar ‘Call Leo’ went out.”

• Laverne Lynch, a Joliet police officer who also worked at the Rialto as a stagehand.

• Harold Webster, a projectionist “that looked like Ebenezer Scrooge but had a heart of gold” and went to schools, clubs and civic groups to show short movies for free.

“That’s what the theater was – it was the people,” Ambrosini said. “The people were the heart and soul.”

Sam Ambrosini of Joliet was the manager of the Rialto in the early 1960s.

He remembers the big stars who came to the theater but especially the people who worked there.

Ambrosini met Ronald Reagan at the Rialto back when the recently retired movie actor was traveling the country making political speeches for the conservative cause before becoming governor of California.

After Reagan’s speech, Ambrosini paid him a foretelling compliment: “I said, ‘You make a great speech.

You should consider running for president.’ I like to think I planted the seed.”

Ambrosini remembers so many people at the Rialto that he could write a book. But here are some: • Kay McAbee, who did concerts on the theater’s pipe organ: “He was to the organ what Liberace was to the piano. He was a genius.”

• Harold “Brownie” Brown, a projectionist who

Sister Joyce Brophy

Sister Joyce Brophy was back in Joliet last week and stopped at the Rialto for the showing of “Mary Poppins.”

She thought back to the excitement created when Frank Sinatra came to town and to the day a group of boys skipping school met their principal at the Rialto.

Brophy, 87, is now retired with the Sisters of Providence of Saint Mary-of-the-Woods, Indiana, where she lives. But she grew up in Joliet, and the Rialto figures into many of her memories from the 1940s.

“I remember when Frank Sinatra made one of his very early appearances here,” Brophy said.

The line outside was long, and the crowd was eager to get in – especially the teenage girls.

“All the girls were screaming, ‘Frankie, Frankie,’ ” she said.

The boys from Joliet Catholic High School weren’t making much noise the day they snuck away from school to go to the movies at the Rialto. They got a lot of attention, however, when their principal showed up onstage.

“He said, ‘Everyone who is here from Joliet Catholic High School stand up,’” Brophy said.

When they rose, their principal ordered them to march two-by-two back to school, which at the time was just outside the downtown area.

Brophy was not there, but she heard the story from a reliable source.

“My brother [Bob],” she said, “was one of the ones who had to march back.”

For one night, during the summer of 1960, Larry Duffy had a police escort.

Duffy, now of Channahon, was a 16-year-old Joliet Township High School student working as an usher at the Rialto, which was primarily a movie house at the time.

Local official weighs in on e-recycling fix

Solution unlikely before legislative session’s end

Nehemiah Beckley and Anthony King unload a large television onto a pallet May 13 at the Lockport Public Works Department in Lockport. Efforts are underway to overhaul Illinois’ poorly funded electronics recycling program.

By LAUREN LEONE–CROSS

lleonecross@shawmedia.com

SPRINGFIELD – Efforts are underway to overhaul Illinois’ poorly funded electronics recycling program, and Will County’s recycling specialist is hoping for a fix sooner rather than later.

Recycling specialist Marta Keane and other stakeholders met last week in Springfield to discuss possible solutions.

Much of the legislation components remain fluid, but local governments and manufacturers – key funders in the state program – appear closer to reaching a consensus, Keane said. The working group is meeting again this week.

Under one concept, service users would have to buy a sticker – anywhere from $5 to $10 – at a local grocery store or government office building to recycle a screened electronic item, such as a TV or tablet.

That money would go into a newly created fund to supplement program costs. Stakeholders are also considering pulling from Illinois’ solid waste fund, which is accumulating via landfill fees.

The Illinois Manufacturers Association came up with the sticker concept, said Jerry Peck, the organization’s associate director of government affairs.

“Consumers aren’t necessarily going to like that.

[Manufacturers] would still be paying, and the sticker revenue would supplement,” Peck said. “But I don’t think we’re there yet. We’re not sure we can

sell that [idea].”

Keane said she has concerns about charging residents for what was supposed to be a free program paid for by manufacturers. But if manufacturers agree to increase recycling weight goals – and thus, how much they pay into the program – it’s a fair trade to ensure the program is sustainable, she said.

Keane, as a member of the Illinois Product Stewardship Council, is also pushing for Will County to have at least eight established drop-off sites – up from the current one in Lockport, but down from the previous 13.

Electronics have been banned from landfills in Illinois since 2012, and under current state law, manufacturers that sell products in Illinois must recycle

a certain weight of what is sold and pay to have those items collected and recycled.

When funding issues arose last year, a change to state law increased manufacturers’ weight obligations from 36.2 million to 49.6 million pounds to meet consumer demand.

The state law was designed so manufacturers picked up the tab, but local governments in recent months have lost the financial support of manufacturers in a low-priced market for recycled electronics and rising demand.

Peck said he doesn’t see a final bill being drafted before May 31, the end of legislation session. He expects the working group to continue over the summer.

911 call center added to new sheriff’s office design Channahon, Lockport chiefs react to proposal

By MIKE MALLORY

mmallory@shawmedia.com JOLIET – The Will County Board voted last week to take the next step toward consolidating dispatch services into three buildings.

The board on Thursday authorized the Will County Executive’s Office to amend a contract with DLR Group Inc. to add design plans for a dispatch center at the new Will County Sheriff’s Office. Construction of the new sheriff’s facility, on Laraway Road in Joliet, is expected to start late this summer.

The addition comes after the Will County’s 911 Board in April drafted a consolidation plan for reducing its emergency dispatch centers from six to three, in accordance with an unfunded

state mandate. The final plan for consolidation is due to the state by July 1.

Under the plan, the Romeoville center, the Eastcom center in Crete and the Lincolnway center in Frankfort would likely be folded into the new facility at the Will County Sheriff’s Office. The two other operating dispatch centers in the county are the city of Joliet’s facility and the WESCOM facility built in 2014 in Plainfield.

The county may spend about $5 million in construction on the new dispatch center and its administrative offices, while $20 million to $25 million could be spent on the sheriff’s and other agencies’ portions of the building.

In April, the Bolingbrook Village Board adopted a resolution against the new center, adding that residents served by WESCOM are already expected to pay $5.1 million in bond debt. Other communities served by WESCOM in Plainfield have also expressed displeasure with paying for another center.

The Channahon Village Board – which issued $5 million in bonds in 2013 to fund the WESCOM building – was waiting for the WESCOM board to file a resolution before possibly considering a resolution opposing the idea.

On Friday, Channahon Police Chief Jeff Wold said the county is trying to do the right thing.

“To me, the bottom line is the county has to consolidate,” Wold said. “The law passed around the same time [WESCOM in Plainfield] was opening.

It’s a timing issue.”

Wold pointed out that if another consolidated center is built, with today’s technology, the centers can back up each other if something were to happen to either one.

On April 27, the Lockport Township Fire Protection District board adopted a resolution “expressing concern over the project,” Chief David Skoryi said Friday. He described it as a friendly objection.

Skoryi said he’s excited that all the agencies would come together under further consolidation. But while he supports a new consolidated center, he is not in favor of residents within his district paying for it.

“The county is doing the right thing for the right reason,” Skoryi said. “Our issue is, the west half of the county built its own consolidated center at a substantial cost. It appears agencies will somewhat get underwritten by this.”

Skoryi remains hopeful that discussion will lead to some sort of an agreement between all parties.

“I can’t stress this enough – it’s not a feud. It’s just a matter of us wanting to have discussions about it,” Skoryi said.

Calls to Bolingbrook Public Safety Director Tom Ross, Will County Executive Office Chief of Staff Nick Palmer and Deputy Chief of Staff Dave Tkac were not immediately returned Friday.

Lincoln-Way lawsuit ruling to be issued by mail

By FELIX SARVER

fsarver@shawmedia.com JOLIET – A ruling on the lawsuit over the Lincoln-Way School District 210 board’s decision to shutter North High School may not happen until June 20.

Will County Judge Roger Rickmon on Friday took under advisement arguments from attorneys for District 210 and resident group Lincoln-Way Area Taxpayers Unite, which is suing the board to keep the school open.

Rickmon decided he will give a ruling by mail and the matter is set for a

status hearing June 20.

The board decided last August to have North closed this fall to control deficit spending that landed Lincoln-Way on the state financial watch list. LWATU started its lawsuit in late December. That timeline will cause further delays for LWATU wanting to keep the school open before this fall, but the group’s attorney, Stephen Eberhardt, said he doesn’t “foresee the parents backing off from their claims.”

Even if the case stretches to a point when district officials say it is too late to keep North open, Eberhardt said, the group will “deal with that.”

Friday’s hearing was on Lincoln-Way attorneys’ motion to dismiss LWATU’s second amended complaint, which the group filed after its first complaint and its temporary restraining order to prevent North’s closure was dismissed by Rickmon.

Lincoln-Way attorneys want the complaint dismissed with prejudice because they argue the board’s decision to close North was not arbitrary, capricious or unreasonable, and did not violate the due process rights of the plaintiffs, the majority of whom are North parents.

“The plaintiffs engage in something

of a logical merry-go-round,” William Gleason, the district’s attorney, said about the group’s arguments.

Eberhardt said the board based its decision to close North on incomplete and incorrect information, referring to information that recently came out about repairs needed for all of Lincoln-Way’s schools. He cited in his legal response to the motion to dismiss an April 28 Daily Southtown article about $8.5 million in capital projects at Lincoln-Way – as well as a district life safety and maintenance report – that he argued indicated the board did not consider all relevant information in its decision.

Foster sponsors bill requiring opioid treatment capacity study

By LAUREN LEONE–CROSS

lleonecross@shawmedia.com

JOLIET – U.S. Congressman Bill Foster, D-Naperville, is stepping up the fight against the deadly opioid epidemic sweeping Illinois and the rest of the nation.

Foster is the key sponsor to House Resolution 4928 – a bill requiring the Government Accountability Office to submit a report outlining opioid abuse treatment availability and capacity needs in the U.S. Foster this week said he and other members of Congress are “staying on high alert” to ensure funding is allocated to fight the growing epidemic.

“We need to make sure that we don’t just go and say how much we care about the epidemic and then don’t allocate the resources needed,” Foster said.

Foster’s legislation requires the GAO to analyze capacity for varied treatment levels and the use of medically assisted treatment and nonpharmacological therapies. The study also will look at treatment availability by geographic region, and within specific demographics, including pregnant women and adoles-

cents.

The bill also asks that the GAO outline federal, state and local barriers to real-time reporting of information on drug overdoses and ways to overcome those barriers.

With fewer state dollars allocated to treatment centers, Illinois has some of the worst treatment availability in the nation. That’s worsened by the Illinois budget impasse, Foster said.

“In Illinois, there’s been huge amounts of stress. Treatment centers have had to cut back on services because of the Illinois budget situation,” Foster said. “Stepping Stones in Joliet … Gateway and Lutheran Social Services. And this is all because of the financial stress in Illinois.”

The Will County Coroner’s Office has tallied 25 opioid-related deaths so far this year. Last month, Coroner Pat O’Neil reported the county was on pace to reach the 80s or 90s by year’s end – far outpacing the county’s 2012 and 2015 record of 53 deaths.

HR 4928 is part of a larger package aimed at combating the epidemic.

The Senate passed its own bill package earlier this year. The two bill ver-

sions must be reconciled by a Congress conference committee before final passage.

U.S. Rep. Dan Lipinski, D-Western Springs, also voted in support of the bill.

HR 4928 sets up grant programs, requires the Veterans Affairs office to update its therapy clinical guidelines, assesses Good Samaritan laws, establishes a task force to address prescription pain medication use, allows nurse practitioners to administer medica-

tion-assisted treatment, and reauthorizes treatment grants for programs targeting pregnant and postpartum women facing addiction, according to Lipinski’s office.

Congressman Adam Kinzinger, R-Channahon, was appointed last week to represent the House and serve on the bipartisan conference committee charged with negotiating the final legislation package, according to a Kinzinger news release.

8 Cops raise funds for Special Olympics

By BRIAN STANLEY

bstanley@shawmedia.com JOLIET – Across the state and throughout the area on Friday, police officers became “Cops on the Rooftops” of Dunkin’ Donuts to raise funds for Special Olympics.

In Joliet, they were “Cops on the Sidewalk.”

“Have you seen the roof? There’s quite an angle,” Joliet Police Chief Brian Benton said outside the Dunkin’ Donuts at 2959 W. Jefferson St. Though Joliet Junior College police were on top of the Houbolt Road location, Joliet police stayed on the ground as drive-thru and walk-in customers received a coupon for a free doughnut with their donation.

Special T-shirts and coffee mugs were also available for purchase.

The fundraiser marks the 30th anniversary of the Law Enforcement Torch Run for Special Olympics.

“The generosity from the local community has been outstanding,” Joliet Police Sgt. Larry Collins said.

“We’ve raised about a half-million dollars over the 20 years we’ve been participating.”

Collins’ daughter, Caroline, 12,

“She looks so forward to competing ... to seeing her friends. I’m so proud that we support that,” Collins said.

Several officers manned the donation table for customers going inside as Benton and Collins took money from drivers going through the parking lot. Officer Jamere Price brought his DJ equipment to provide a festive soundtrack.

This year’s run is scheduled for June 7.

Dozens of Joliet officers will take the torch from Crest Hill officers at St. Joe’s Park and run down Broadway Street, over the Ruby Street bridge through downtown past City Hall and east on Route 30 to hand it off to New Lenox police at Providence High School.

BOLINGBROOK – An Illinois State Police lieutenant was hospitalized Friday as the result of an alleged drunken driver striking a squad car while traveling north on Interstate 55 near Weber Road near Bolingbrook.

The incident started after police conducted a traffic stop about 12:45 a.m. Friday on a different driver. An Illinois State Police officer was sitting in his parked Daniel squad car with emer- M. Gaeta gency lights activated on the right shoulder after conducting a traffic stop and arresting a subject, who was sitting in the front passenger seat of the officer’s squad car, according to a news release from ISP. A second ISP officer stopped his squad car, with emergency lights activated, behind the first officer and exited the car to assist him, state police said.

“After speaking with the officer, the

second officer began walking back to his squad car,” ISP said in the news release “As he was walking back, [the suspect’s] vehicle, a 2004 Mercedes-Benz, struck the back of his squad car. The impact from the crash pushed the squad car forward, and it struck the second officer. The squad car then struck the back of the first squad car.”

Both officers and the arrested subject were transported to local hospitals; the first officer and the subject were evaluated and released.

The lieutenant who was struck was transported in serious condition to Advocate Good Samaritan Hospital in Downers Grove. His condition stabilized at some point.

The lieutenant has facial fractures and will undergo surgery, a state police desk officer said. The lieutenant also has a broken wrist and possibly a broken arm.

Daniel M. Gaeta, 24, of Joliet, was arrested and charged with aggravated driving under the influence. Gaeta also was taken to a local hospital, where he was evaluated and released into ISP custody. Gaeta is being held in the Will County Jail on a charge of felony DUI.

“That will help the Joliet police in apprehending people doing illegal acts on the site.”

Michael Simelton

Housing Authority of Joliet CEO “The officers were in the area,” Gregory said. “They were immediately in the area, and the people were scattering.”

That shooting was the only one that occurred since the April 22 to 24 incidents.

No one was injured in the May 8 shooting. But a masked man in a car had opened fire on three people who were outside in the area of Fairmont and Englewood avenues.

Gregory said police did make one arrest while investigating a lead in the shootings. But the arrest was not directly related to the shootings.

A 25-year-old woman in the 1500 block of Englewood Avenue was arrested after leaving three children ages 1 through 3 alone in a residence where police found a loaded handgun in a suitcase in a closet.

Gregory said police were executing a search warrant while looking for a suspect who may have been involved in the shootings and whom they believed was staying in the home.

Police have increased patrols and brought tactical units into the neighborhood since the April shootings. A neighborhood police team also operates in the area.

Gregory said police met last week with about 35 residents at a meeting of the Forest Park Neighborhood Council, which galvanized neighborhood action after the shooting incidents in 2015.

“I did not see, nor was I aware of, any housing residents from Fairview at the meeting,” Gregory said. “I was asking for the community’s help.”

JOLIET – The Housing Authority of Joliet will add security cameras at Fairview Homes, the latest move after a recent surge of gun violence at the complex and in the surrounding neighborhood.

Joliet police have stepped up patrols and investigations since five people were shot – none fatally – in three incidents that occurred April 22 to 24 in the area.

HAJ last week approved the purchase of 10 cameras for $41,000 from Commercial Electronic Systems.

The cameras will be added to 15 others already in place at Fairview. But HAJ has been considering an upgrade in security cameras since two fatal shootings in August 2015 at Fairview.

HAJ CEO Michael Simelton said cost was an issue as the agency looked at camera upgrades costing as much as $300,000. But the agency was plan-

ning to upgrade cameras before the recent surge in shootings, he said.

HAJ has been reassessing the existing camera system for the last couple of months before determining that it should buy the 10 cameras, he said.

The new cameras have pan-tiltzoom capacity, providing more range and visibility than some of the older cameras at Fairview.

“That will help the Joliet police in apprehending people doing illegal acts on the site,” Simelton said.

Joliet Deputy Police Chief Ed Gregory said the camera upgrade will “very much so” assist police in their efforts at Fairview and the surrounding Forest Park neighborhood.

One issue facing police is the lack of cooperation from nearby residents in identifying people involved in crimes in the area, Gregory said.

In the last shooting incident May 8, he said, police were in the immediate vicinity, but witnesses were running from the scene as they arrived.

Volunteers at Shorewood Fire Station No. 2 participated Saturday in the fourth annual Build-A-Bike program, in an effort to supply area children in need with their own bikes.

Build-A-Bike program outfits 45 children with new bikes

By MIKE MALLORY

mmallory@shawmedia.com SHOREWOOD – More than 4,700 children in need across the country have received bicycles in the four years Golden State Foods Foundation has operated its Build-A-Bike program.

On Saturday, 45 of the 1,300 bikes assembled nationwide this year were given, in person, to children in need from municipalities such as Shorewood, Plainfield and Joliet. Shorewood Fire Station No. 2 was the host site for the event, which coincides with National Bike Month.

As a breeze flowed through the firehouse, each child was paired with a volunteer. Then they built the Schwinn Dart bikes together.

Golden State Foods managing director Peter Peluso said the bikes built and given out Saturday were the first bikes for many of the children in attendance.

That’s why Kory Management owner Nick Kory feels it’s so important to get involved as a local businessperson. Kory, who operates five McDonald’s restaurants in the area, said he and his brother have been

involved in Build-A-Bike for three years now.

His face lit up as he thought of what it was like to get his first bike as a child.

“Having a bike is an imperative piece to being a kid,” Kory said. “So it’s awesome to give back to kids who may not have the resources in order to have a bike.”

Building the bikes with a volunteer is intended to teach the kids the value of hard work and self-reliance.

“Volunteers from our area work one-on-one with the kids to build the bikes,” Kory said. “After they get a safety inspection from Shorewood police, they can ride away.”

Not only did police fit youngsters with bike helmets and point out proper safety guidelines, they worked in community outreach to find the kids who were in need of bikes.

This year, the group decided to boost its bike output from the 30, of years past, to 45. Kory said there was some trouble reaching the volunteer goal this year. To get involved as a volunteer or to see whether a child qualifies for a bike, Kory said to reach out to him through Shorewood McDonald’s or contact Shorewood police.

“Volunteers from our area work one-on-one with the kids to build the bikes. After they get a safety inspection from Shorewood police, they can ride away.”

ROMEOVILLE – The Romeoville Village Board has approved proposals from Wight & Co. to design development through construction for O’Hara Woods and Meadowdale Park.

O’Hara Woods is a 60-acre nature preserve with trails, a pavilion and picnic tables, and offers outdoor rentals, according to a news release from the village. It will not be available to the public during the design and construction phase of the project.

Renovations will include repairs to the pavilion roof, security lighting, poured flooring and restrooms upgraded to be ADA compliant, according to the news release. The play structure equipment will be replaced with a nature-themed playground environment for children ages 2 to 5.

“O’Hara Woods has always been a

popular area for recreation for our residents. We look forward to enhancing the area for future outdoor activities for individuals and families alike,” Mayor John Noak said in the news release.

Meadowdale Park is a 2.5-acre parcel in Meadowdale Estates near Greenhaven subdivision that has been vacant for a decade, according to the news release. Development of the park will include input from residents at a March 10 community meeting.

“This area is in need of development and it is an ideal location for a park,” Kelly Rajzer, director of parks and recreation, said in the news release.

The designs from Wight & Co. will include a gazebo, benches, trails, a drinking fountain, and possibly playground and exercise stations, according to the news release.

The improvements have been budgeted and approved for fiscal 2017.

Construction should start this summer after designs are completed and approved, with an estimated completion date of late fall.

Upgrades OK’d for O’Hara Woods, Meadowdale Park

Jury selection began Friday in Peterson murder-for-hire trial

By ALAN SCHER ZAGIER The Associated Press

ST. LOUIS – Jury selection began Friday in the murder-for-hire trial of Drew Peterson, the former suburban Chicago police officer accused of plotting to kill the prosecutor who put him behind bars in his third wife’s death.

The process will unfold in Randolph County in southern Drew Illinois, where Peter- Peterson son, 62, is serving a 38-year-sentence at the maximum security Menard Correctional Center.

Opening arguments are scheduled to start Monday, with the trial anticipated to last at least one week.

The Illinois Attorney General’s Office and the Randolph County state’s attorney are prosecuting the case against Peterson, who faces a sentence of up to 60 years if convicted of solicitation of murder for hire along with solicitation of murder.

Peterson has pleaded not guilty to charges that he enlisted anoth-

er inmate between September 2013 and December 2014 to help plan the death of Will County State’s Attorney James Glasgow, who is among the state’s likely witnesses. Glasgow has previously declined to discuss the alleged threats.

The crux of the state’s case is expected to consist of wiretapped conversations between Peterson and a confidential informant. Prosecutors have not identified a prospective hit man.

A public defender representing Peterson unsuccessfully sought to bar the secretly recorded conversations, arguing that the Will County judge who authorized the wiretap improperly met with the jailed informant, whose name was inadvertently disclosed during pretrial proceedings.

Even as he faces additional time in prison, Peterson is appealing his 2012 murder conviction to the Illinois Supreme Court.

A state appeals court ruled in November that evidence against Peterson was sufficient to show he killed

Glasgow reopened the investigation into Savio’s death after the 2007 disappearance of Stacy Peterson, the ex-Bolingbrook sergeant’s 23-year-old fourth wife. Peterson, who remains a suspect in that case, has maintained his innocence. His defense attorneys previously contended that Stacy Peterson had run off with another man and was alive.

Peterson divorced Savio a year before

her death.

It’s not clear whether Peterson – who opted to not take the stand in his murder trial – will testify this time.

Randolph County State’s Attorney said the witness list has been placed under seal.

Should he testify, prosecutors will be able to question Peterson about his murder conviction, Circuit Judge Richard Brown has ruled. But they won’t be able to discuss a 2003 attempt

by Peterson to pay $25,000 to someone whom he asked to “take care of” Savio.

The judge has also granted a defense request to allow discussion at trial about the details of the confidential informant’s own criminal history.

OBITUARIES HERBERT F. BRIICK Herbert F. Briick, 91, of Hinsdale, died May 18, 2016, at Adventist Hinsdale Hospital.

Herb had been a resident of Hinsdale for over 53 years.

Born in Joliet in 1925, Herb was the son of Herbert and Anna Briick. Following his graduation from Joliet Catholic High School, he served in the Pacific with the U.S. Navy during the Second World War. After the war he attended Joliet Junior College before transferring to Georgetown University. In 1950, Herb married Mary Lou Culik, also of Joliet, who accompanied him during his final year at Georgetown and throughout the rest of his life. The couple met while working at their family-owned businesses in Joliet: Herb at Briick’s Meat Market, Mary Lou at Stefanich’s Restaurant.

Immediately following his graduation from Georgetown’s School of Foreign Service in 1951, Herb joined the Federal Bureau of Investigation and began what was to be a 26year career as a special agent. Following his initial assignment in the Baltimore Field Office, Herb served in the Boston and Washington, D.C., field offices until his transfer to Chicago in 1962. It was in that year the Briick family moved to what has ever since been their home on Quincy Street in Hinsdale.

Noteworthy events in Herb’s FBI career included participating in the first confession from the destined-to-become notorious mobster James “Whitey” Bulger in Boston in 1956 and in the investigation of President Kennedy’s assassination in 1963. Much of his work in Chicago was focused on the fight against organized crime. Following his retirement from the FBI in 1977, Herb began his second career as the security director for American Airlines at O’Hare Airport, where he worked until 1992.

Herb’s dedication to his work with the FBI and American Airlines was exceeded only by his devotion to his wife, his children and his friends. Fondly remembered are the many family vacations he led to U.S. and Canadian national parks, as well as unforgettable trips to Mexico, England, France, Italy and other destinations in Europe. Remembered above all, however, is the unstinting help he provided others throughout his life. The beneficiaries of Herb’s kindness included not only his family and neighbors, but strangers as well, such as servicemen searching for flights from O’Hare Airport to their homes over the holidays.

He was preceded in death by his brothers, John and David.

Herb is survived by his wife of 65 years, Mary Lou; sons, Herbert and John; daughter, Laura (John Farrell); granddaughter, Kari (Jager); and sister, Cele (Charles Bona).

Friends and family will gather Saturday, June 18, 2016, at 9 a.m. in the Fireplace Room at St. Isaac Jogues Catholic Church, 306 W. Fourth St., Hinsdale, before proceeding to a 10 a.m.

Mass. Interment will be private at St. Joseph’s

Cemetery, Joliet.

In lieu of flowers, memorials may be made to the Adventist St. Thomas Hospice, P.O. Box 130, Hinsdale, IL 60522-0130.

DONNA M. BROWN Donna M. Brown, Nee: Moon, age 64, passed away Friday.

May 20, 2016, at Presence St. Joseph Medical Center.

Survived by her fiancé, Michael Papes Sr.; loving children, Christopher (Virginia) Brown, Michael U. (Jamie) Brown Jr. and Stacey M. (Jeremy Hill) Brown; 16 grandchildren; and siblings, Chuck (Tammy) Moon, Mike (Sue) Moon, Barb Webb, Bruce Kolakowski and Henry Coomer. Numerous nieces and nephews also survive.

Preceded in death by her husband, Michael U. Brown Sr.; mother, Rosemarie (Holmquist) Kolakowski; father, Charles Moon; two brothers, William and John Moon; and one niece, Tricia Korn.

Born in Joliet, living in Diamond. Donna loved spending time with her children and grandchildren and enjoyed family get-togethers, gardening traveling, bingo and bowling.

A memorial service will be held, Wednesday, May 25, 2016, at 7:30 p.m. at the Blackburn-Giegerich-Sonntag Funeral Home, 1500 Black Road, Joliet, IL. 60435. Visitation Wednesday, 4 p.m. until time of services.

BILL BUCHANAN

Born: Nov. 7, 1933; in Spruce Pine, NC Died: May 19, 2016; in Longview, TX Rev. Bill Buchanan (Bro. Bill), passed May 19, 2016, at the Longview (TX) Regional Medical Center resulting from complica-

tions from a fall at home April 18, 2016.

Born Nov. 7, 1933, in Spruce Pine, NC, to Fred and Etta (Day) Buchanan.

He was preceded in death by his parents; his wife and the love of his life, Mable (Robinson), in 2002; his brothers, Frank and Lee; and two dear sisters-in-law, Pearl

and Ella.

He is survived by two sons, DeWitt (Karen) of Channahon and Jamie (Marne) of Chesapeake, VA; and seven grandchildren, Andy, Hannah, Eagan, Caeden, Jacob, Julia and Hope.

He is also survived by two brothers and their wives who were like sisters, Charles (Kay) of Spruce Pine, NC, and Lawrence (Polly) of Burnsville, NC; and a sister (in-law), Grace, of Asheville, NC. He also leaves behind many cherished nieces and nephews. Additionally, he leaves behind dear friends and neighbors, Matt and Kathy Whitfield, who cared for him as if he were their “dad.”

Bro. Bill was a veteran of the U.S. Army, proudly serving in Germany during the Korean War. Upon returning home, he accepted Christ as his Savior in 1959 and soon after announced his call to preach.

A graduate of the Fruitland Baptist Bible Institute in Hendersonville, NC, he found his calling to bring him life’s greatest joys. A country preacher who worked diligently to prepare God’s word, he was never happier than when a soul was saved. The desire to serve never left him as he served continuously as a pastor from 1959 until April 17, 2016, except for a brief “retirement” of six months in 2004. He served as pastor to 10 churches in NC, TN, IL, and TX during his 57 years of ministry. He was an excellent Bible-based preacher and a great pastor. He deeply cared for his church families and the communities in which he served.

A “mountain boy,” he cherished his roots and always loved to return home. He also loved the plains of IL and the hills of TN and leaves many dear friends in both of those areas. But TX became his earthly paradise.

Planning to someday retire in TX and live out his American dream, even the loss of his soul mate could not lessen his love for his new “home” state and the beautiful home place he had always dreamt of together with mom. He achieved all that they had envisioned and lived life as he wanted, preaching and ministering and taking care of his earthly home and yard.

We would like to offer a special thank you to the entire staff at Longview Regional Medical Center. They were ever attentive and excellent in their care – such loving and supportive caregivers. Thank you for caring so gently for dad! In his honor, memorials would be appreciated to either Hall Baptist Church or to Fruitland Baptist Bible Institute.

Visitation will be held at the Haggard Funeral Home in Jefferson, TX, on Sunday, May 22, 2016, from 3 to 5 p.m., with a funeral on Monday, May 23, at 10:30 a.m. at his church, Hall Baptist, with Rev. Jim Rust officiating. He will then be flown to Spruce Pine, NC, for services and burial with mom.

Rev. Steve Fisk, Rev. Dallas Renfro and Rev. Fred Proctor will officiate in NC. “Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God.” Matthew 4:4 was dad’s favorite verse of scripture and the way he lived his life.

STATE GOP calls for unity as some tiptoe around Trump

By SARA BURNETT

The Associated Press

PEORIA – Illinois Republicans cheered calls for unity at the party’s state convention on Saturday even as some top elected officials tiptoed around the name likely to top the GOP ticket: Donald Trump.

The billionaire businessman won Illinois’ GOP presidential preference vote, and the overwhelming majority of the state’s delegates to this summer’s Republican National Convention are Trump supporters. Many waved signs with his name and sported campaign hats and stickers at Saturday’s event in Peoria.

But Trump’s controversial comments about women and minorities have been cause for concern for some Republicans, who worry that aligning with him will hurt GOP candidates further down the ballot in Democratic-leaning Illinois.

That resulted in a party pep rally that had no mention of the GOP’s presumptive presidential nominee until almost an hour into the meeting.

U.S. Sen. Mark Kirk, who’s in a tough race against Democratic U.S. Rep. Tammy Duckworth, skipped the only convention event that was open to the media. Gov. Bruce Rauner spoke for almost 20 minutes without mention-

Judge wants Chicago mayor to testify on code of silence

CHICAGO – Attorneys for the city of Chicago have told a federal judge they are prepared to admit to a jury that a code of silence exists within the police department in an attempt to keep Mayor Rahm Emanuel off the witness stand.

But U.S. District Judge Gary Feinerman said Friday that he still would ask Emanuel to testify in the case of two whistleblower police officers suing the city, explaining that the mayor’s testimony could offer “much more texture” on the issue.

Legal experts said it was likely the city would settle rather than allow Emanuel to take the stand in the case, which is set to go to trial May 31. But they said the city’s willingness to have attorneys formally acknowledge a code of silence in court was a

“You guys know primaries are brutally hard, and this primary season has been really hard up and down the ticket,” Rauner told the crowd of about 1,000. “The good news is it’s in the past.

Now is the time to come together. Now is the time to unite.”

Both Kirk and Rauner have previously said they would support Trump if he is the nominee, though neither plans to attend the national convention in Cleveland. A top Rauner aide also has said the governor won’t endorse Trump.

Emanuel himself brought up the code of silence problem in a speech in December to the City Council in the midst of protests and calls for his resignation over the death of Laquan McDonald, the black teenager who was killed by a white officer in a shooting caught on police dashcam video.

Emanuel spokesman Adam Collins referred to that speech in a statement and said the mayor wouldn’t have anything more to offer in court testimony on the issue of officers keeping quiet to protect fellow officers accused of misconduct.

Naming rights shopped to fund Hancock plaza project

CHICAGO – Another iconic Chicago skyscraper may be in line for a new name.

The owner of the John Hancock Center is shopping the naming rights for the 47-year-old building to pay for a proposed redevelopment of a plaza in front of the Michigan Avenue building.

Stephen Hearn presented his plan to the Magnificent Mile Association, a nonprofit group promoting businesses along North Michigan Avenue. It included a rendering showing where a sponsor’s name could appear in 3-foot-high letters near the third floor of the 100-floor tower.

“The people have spoken, and that’s what they want,” LaHood said. “When we think about uniting, our worst candidate is better than the alternative any day of the week.”

Many of the convention’s attendees were more enthusiastic.

Diante Johnson, a 20-year-old college student from Danville, was a regional coordinator for Ben Carson’s presidential campaign but said after Carson got out of the race he concluded, “We’ve got to have Trump.”

“His business speaks for itself and his wealth speaks for itself,” Johnson said. “We need a change.”

Much of Saturday’s focus was on picking up seats in the Illinois Legislature, where Democrats control both chambers, and continuing Rauner’s fight for term limits and business-friendly legislation. Illinois is approaching a full year without a state budget, and lawmakers are far from agreement on what it will take to get one for this year or the next fiscal year that begins July 1.

Rauner has said he won’t sign off on a tax increase to close a multibillion-dollar budget hole until Democrats support some of his priorities, such as weakening labor union power. Democrats say that will hurt the middle class.

Hearn said selling the naming rights is essential to getting the $10 million plaza project off the ground.

Woman killed, man hurt near police headquarters

CHICAGO – Chicago’s police superintendent said the fatal shooting of a woman leaving a coffee shop near police headquarters Friday is an indication of how brazen violent offenders have become.

Superintendent Eddie Johnson said that 49-year-old Yvonne Nelson, a dispatcher at the city’s 311 Center, was not the intended target. The man in his 20s, who Johnson said was a documented street gang member, was shot several times and seriously wounded. The shooting occurred as Johnson and other police officials were at police headquarters touting the arrests of dozens of gang members in a sweep with federal agents. Police spokesman Anthony Guglielmi said the shooter was chasing the intended target when he opened fire. He said extra police has been assigned to the area to investigate the crime.

NATION & WORLD BRIEFS Pentagon: U.S. airstrike targets Taliban leader

WASHINGTON – The U.S. conducted an airstrike Saturday against Taliban leader Mullah Mansour, the Pentagon said, and a U.S. official said Mansour was believed to have been killed.

Pentagon press secretary Peter Cook said the attack occurred in a remote region along the Afghanistan-Pakistan border. He said the U.S. was studying the results of the attack.

But a U.S. official not authorized to discuss the operation publicly said Mansour and a second male combatant accompanying him in a vehicle were probably killed.

The official said the attack was carried out by unmanned aircraft operated by U.S. Special Operations Forces. The official said the operation occurred at about 6 a.m. EDT southwest of the town of Ahmad Wal, and was authorized by President Barack Obama.

Votel flew into northern Syria and spent nearly 11 hours in the country. He met with U.S. military advisers working with Syrian Arab fighters, and conferred with leaders of the Syrian Democratic Forces, an umbrella group of Kurdish and Arab fighters supported by the U.S. A small group of reporters accompanied Votel on a flight from Iraq under ground rules that, for security reasons, prohibited disclosing his visit until after he had left Syria.

Clinton: Trump’s gun policies ‘dangerous’

By SERGIO BUSTOS The Associated Press

FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. – Donald Trump’s gun policies are “not just way out there” but “dangerous” and would make America less safe, Hillary Clinton said Saturday.

“This is someone running to be president of the United States of America – a country fac“We have a ing a gun violence epimoral demic – and he’s talking about more guns in our obligation to schools, he’s talking about more hatred and protect our division in our streets,” children, no the likely Democratic presidential nominee matter what said of her presumptive zip code they Republican rival. “That’s no way to keep us safe.” live in.”

Clinton’s criticism of the Trump came the day after he slammed her as Hillary Clinton “Heartless Hillary” for backing restrictions on gun ownership in a speech before the National Rifle Association convention in Louisville, Kentucky. Clinton spoke at a conference organized by the Trayvon Martin Foundation to help mothers whose children or other relatives have died from shootings. It was led by Sybrina Fulton, whose 17-year-old son, Trayvon Martin, was fatally shot by neighborhood watch volun-

teer George Zimmerman in 2012. She has campaigned with Clinton during the Democratic presidential primaries.

“The reason why I stand with her is because she first stood with me,” Fulton said before introducing Clinton to more than 200 people packed inside a hotel banquet room.

Queen Thompson Brown, a Miami mother whose son was the victim of gun violence in 2006 and who has mentored Fulton, said she and others do not want to take away guns from Americans but hope to “promote common sense gun laws.”

Clinton praised the courage of Fulton and others who had suffered the loss of loved ones to gun violence or while in police custody.

“We have a moral obligation to protect our children, no matter what zip code they live in,” she said.

She then turned her attention to Trump and his gun policies.

“If you want to imagine what Trump’s America will look like, picture more kids at risk of violence and bigotry, picture more anger and fear,” she said.

Clinton repeated her pledge to fight the powerful National Rifle Association lobby, saying “we will not be silenced, we will not be intimidated.” The gun rights organization endorsed Trump, even though he had previously supported measures like an assault weapons ban that the NRA vigorously opposes. The group applauded Trump’s call for ending “gun-free zones” across the country.

Haller also said a city official consulted with the Collins Street Neighborhood Council, which approved the project.

City planning staff in an analysis of the project said that it fits with the mixed-use development in the area. The two new buildings will be at 210-220 Collins St. The rezoning of the property next goes to the City Council for final approval.

Collins and Cass streets are the two major commercial streets on the East Side. Both streets have seen new development at times arising from demolition of older buildings. The Walgreens store at the corner of Collins and Cass streets was built after several buildings were acquired and demolished to make room for the new strip center.

Dear Mr. Berko: What are your thoughts on Cisco Systems? I’ve bought 1,000 or more shares of Cisco at least 10 times in the past 10 years, sold them and made money each time.

I am an insurance actuary and know enough to make trading decisions based on charts and trading volumes of some tech stocks I occasionally trade.

Last month, one of my colleagues, who used to trade Cisco as I did, told me her son thinks it’s a very good long-term investment. Her son is a systems engineer and told her the stock could trade in the $50s or $60s in a couple of years. He claims that management is changing its business model so that Cisco can double earnings in the near future. She can’t explain this to me, and she doesn’t want me to talk to her son. I am in a quandary here and seek your advice. Should I keep trading the stock, or should I buy 1,000 shares for the long term? – NK, Rochester, Minnesota Dear NK: Your colleague can’t

The company’s 20.8 percent profit margins and its 17.4 percent return on equity are equally impressive, as is its $61 billion of cash in the bank. Therefore, Citigroup, Jefferies, SunTrust, Merrill Lynch, Oppenheimer, Raymond James and Wells Fargo have “strong buy” recommendations on CSCO at the current price.

I’d also favor CSCO. In addition to liking the growing revenues and income, I’m high on the increasing dividend. During the past 40-plus years, I’ve always strongly emphasized dividend-yielding issues because dividends act as an investor’s cushions in a declining market.

Heck, I don’t mind earning a 4 percent dividend for a couple of years while waiting for CSCO to reach its projected price. However, recognizing the volatility of the stock market, I’d place an open stop-loss order to buy CSCO at $24.

OPINIONS The Salvation Army: Need is not partisan The state of affairs across Illinois is dire – especially for those who are hungry, homeless, struggling with substance abuse or need affordable child care.

On May 11, The Salvation Army sent a delegation of officers and staff from across the state to meet with state legislators and Gov. Bruce Rauner to raise awareness about how the 11-month-long budget stalemate has increased human needs, negatively impacted those whom we serve and stretched our resources nearly to a challenging point. We also went to Springfield to voice our support for a resolution to end this impasse.

Our mission is to meet human needs without discrimination. The greatest limitation to our capacity to serve is the resources available for us to do so.

Partisan ideologies should not have a negative impact on those who need help the most. The General Assembly has acted and now the governor must do the same, as the current lack of state reimbursement dollars will not allow us to sustain these services at our present levels for much longer. While Senate Bill 2038, the recent emergency payment legislation, may meet a fraction of those needs on a temporary basis, other critical services will continue to go unfunded. People in desperate need cannot wait, but we hope the state Legislature and governor will proactively continue to address the need for a sound, balanced budget.

This hope for a larger agreement must also be coupled with the reality that it may not happen soon enough. While we wait, vulnerable people in need continue to pay a heavy price. The Salvation Army is the largest provider of social services worldwide and one of the largest in Illinois. We have relied on our emergency reserves so far to meet the ever-increasing needs and absence of state funding, but we are not able to do this on a continual basis.

We are not alone in this struggle. Many other nonprofits have already resorted to cutting staff, reducing or eliminating programs,

THE FIRST

AMENDMENT

GUEST VIEW Lt. Col. Charles H. Smith even closing their doors. The people they used to serve are now joining the lines for our food trucks, visiting our pantries, and seeking our help with substance abuse treatment. Not only are more people than ever before seeking our help, their needs are more complex and acute, including many who are suffering from mental illness.

The Salvation Army has also tightened its belt by reducing cost of operations while also raising a record amount from generous friends and supporters. Unfortunately, this is still not enough to compensate for the drastic delays in reimbursement.

Faith-based organizations like The Salvation Army play a critical role in the safety net for everyone in need across Illinois. We are also responsible stewards of the private donations entrusted to us to “Do The Most Good.” However, government also has an obligation to do its part and be a responsible steward of the people, as the gap between the available private donations and the cost of providing services continues to widen.

We beseech Gov. Bruce Rauner and the General Assembly to work together in good conscience and faith, to act now on this emergency legislation and move forward, in order to pass a sound and balanced budget that restores funding for human services and helps to stabilize those most in need. Because need is not partisan. No matter what your faith or political affiliation, we have a moral obligation as human beings to help the least fortunate in our society. To alleviate the suffering of our fellow man wherever, and whenever, we can.

Let us show those without, a pathway of hope.

With continued faith,

Lt. Col. Charles H. Smith

Divisional Commander of The Salvation Army Chicago Metropolitan Division

The last ballot, or the last vote?

Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders is defiant. While the Kentucky Democratic primary results were being counted, Sanders wasn’t there. He was in Carson, California, addressing a huge rally. “Let me be as clear as I can be ... We are in till the last ballot is cast,” he said, getting a thunderous roar in return.

There was more. “I say to the leadership of the Democratic Party: Open the doors, let the people in.”

That could mean a lot of things, especially in the wake of the Nevada Democratic Convention, where some of his supporters, angry that 60-some of Sanders delegates were disqualified, yelled and threw chairs. Nevada’s Democratic chairwoman received death threats. “It’s been vile,” Roberta Lange told The New York Times. “It’s been threatening messages, threatening my family, threatening my life, threatening my grandchild.”

Clinton won the Nevada caucus this February during the state’s county conventions. But Sanders supporters were hopeful of winning a greater share at the state convention. It was there that a dispute erupted over the rules, which Sanders ultimately lost. And the rules committee was evenly divided.

Sanders did not help matters when he rejected Democratic leaders’ charges of violence as “nonsense,” despite video proof, text messages, voicemails and corroborating news reports. Instead, Sanders claimed the “[Nevada] Democrat-

VIEWS Donna Brazile ic leadership used its power to prevent a fair and transparent process from taking place.”

The initial contention was over a voice-vote adoption of the convention rules, which Sanders lost. Sanders’ campaign claims their voices were clearly more numerous.

A chairperson is like a sports referee.

Good or bad, it’s what goes. Sanders’ post-Nevada approach threatens Democratic unity. News headlines are talking about a “fraying party.” Sadly, the revolution that Sanders started seems to have stalled out in favor of rehashing internal party rules, rather than focusing on building a progressive movement once the primary season ends next month.

Many, if not most, of Sanders supporters are new to politics. And they have shaken up the system with their political support and donations to his cause. They take Sanders’ words as political gospel: If he says things are rigged, they believe him. When Sanders echoes the presumptive GOP nominee Donald Trump and says things that excuse angry behavior, he countenances acting out of anger.

See BRAZILE, page 35

Continued from page 34 The question that arises in political veterans’ minds is this: Trump is a cynic and plays supporters’ anger for gain. But has Bernie, a passionate believer in justice and equality, lost his bearings and objectivity? Has Sanders convinced himself that “the system” really is denying millions of people their voice?

Secretary Clinton, by the delegate counts of several news organizations, is now 90 delegates away from hitting the magic number for the nomination.

Does Sanders really think she got this far by suppressing votes?

Freedom is not free

To the Editor: Freedom is not free. Freedom has a price. Freedom is courage.

There is a testament of quality distinction that all veterans carry throughout their life.

As a proud wife of a deceased World War II veteran, I feel a need to write two true stories of commitment, duty, honor and patriotism.

As I take my daily walk around our Senior Romeo Gardens every day, friends come out to offer me a “cool drink of water” and to chat. On one occasion, a senior grandpa approached me with tears in his eyes. I asked what the problem was? He replied, his grandson, a veteran,

lar votes than Sanders, wouldn’t her voters feel stunned if the nomination were suddenly denied by any means other than the delegate count won in the primaries?

Despite reforms, the Democratic primary system still has flaws. Nevertheless, it has been conducted in the sunshine, in full view of the people and the press, and the rules were known up front and beforehand, along with clear after-election rules allowing for challenges and recounts.

What does Sen. Sanders want from this new rigidity? He is close to misrepresenting his chances of winning to his supporters – he would have to trounce Clinton in the last few primaries to win; ties, even narrow victories, won’t cut it.

had been buried the day before. He had been deployed about three times in the Middle East. He could not find a job. He hung himself in his garage. He left behind a wife and small child.

My husband, Chuck, was on the beach of Normandy during the invasion. He was on the second landing called “Utah.” His few stories of the mines in the sand, and men blown up around him, were horrific.

My husband and all combat veterans have demons with them a lifetime.

People of faith know hope can always take a life of its own – “you are never alone.” These brave men and women are a true “band of brothers and sisters,” never alone.

American flags are always flying around our home. I need to advocate and empower all people to stand up and demonstrate to our village, our country, and the world what our America illustrates and stands for.

Lift high our flag, our veterans and our patriotism. All servicemen and women should always be honored and respected.

When they are deployed, they never know if they will return home.

The repayment of the debt we owe to our veterans and families should never be forgotten. We are all continually grateful for their sacrifices. I feel humility; a thank you is not enough.

Chamber’s Education Committee appreciates community support

To the Editor: Nine years ago, the Education Committee was formed by the Joliet Region Chamber of Commerce. The Chamber thought that the business community could assist in enhancing the importance of education in the Joliet area by support-

Sanders is worsening the divisions inside the Democratic Party, which are real. It will be hard for the Democratic nominee to be victorious with economic reforms if saddled with a bitterly divided party.

Still, Sanders’ decision to stay until the end represents a view that every primary vote counts. There’s nothing wrong with that. Further, if Sanders wants another debate, there’s nothing wrong with that, either.

But vowing to continue to the last primary ballot is sipping from the same straw as Trump. With the people’s voice having been expressed in the primaries, and having had every chance to woo the superdelegates, if Sanders has lost the committed delegate count going into the convention,

ing events that would highlight education.

The Great Teachers Banquet, the Top Student Banquet, the Joliet Partners in Education, the Entrepreneur Club and the Scholarship Program are all products of the Education Committee. There have been 200 great teachers, almost 700 high school seniors, 50 partners in education, 400 middle-school entrepreneur students and 117 grade-school $1,000 scholarship winners over the nine years.

All of this would not have happened if the Chamber did not have the support of the Joliet business community. I wish I could mention all the sponsors that the Chamber has had for each of these events during the past nine years. Many sponsors have been there each year.

Not only do we want to call attention to the support of the Joliet business community, but also the support and attention that has been given to the Education Committee with the coverage given to all the programs by The Herald-News for these past nine years. It has been most important to the committee and the business partners that those in the education arena be properly recognized by the media for their honors.

The Education Committee has been honored and recognized throughout the state several times for its achievements, but we never formed to expect those recognitions, which have always centered around the business and education communities.

We are very proud to be in a community that has embraced and supported the efforts of the Education Committee and has realized the importance of the partnership of the business community and the educators and students of the Joliet area.

Mark Griglione

Co-Chair of the Education Committee

how will going down to the last ballot help?

How does a divided party (with almost half of it left holding the idea that the winner didn’t fairly win), advance Sanders’ ideals of genuine economic reform, public education for all through college and ending the corrupting influence of money in politics?

And worse, how will it help Sanders’ goals if he ends up keeping a passionate part of the Democratic Party’s natural base on the sidelines?

To the Editor: The Illinois Senate and the House did the right thing last week by unanimously passing SB 2038, a bill that will provide a small amount of emergency cash to human service providers who desperately need it to keep their doors open and services running. Although this bill is stopgap and woefully inadequate, the governor should do the right thing by signing it quickly.

The larger issue, of course, is that racing from fire to fire is no way to run state government. Passing SB 2038 just postpones catastrophic consequences. It is not a sustainable and comprehensive solution to Illinois’ budget crisis.

In the last few weeks, a bipartisan group of legislators have come together to do just that – find a sustainable and comprehensive solution. The specifics of this balanced budget framework have not been publicly revealed, but we do know that it’s the work of many smart leaders from both sides of the aisle acting in good faith. It is a consensus framework and the first real outline of a budget in a long time.

The governor and legislative leaders must now do their part and provide an open and fair debate about the particulars of this framework. It would be irresponsible for anyone to use SB 2038 as an excuse for stifling debate on more comprehensive solutions such as the framework.

Make no mistake. Human service providers desperately need the relief provided by SB 2038. These providers are fulfilling their contracts with the state to provide home care to people with disabilities, community care to frail older adults, after-school and youth development programs, supports for victims of

domestic violence, supportive housing and homelessness prevention services, and on and on. These providers have been paying for staff, rent, supplies and insurance by borrowing money and depleting their reserves. Everything and everyone is exhausted.

But we must see SB 2038 for what it is: an emergency measure that pays only 45 cents on the dollar as reimbursement for signed contracts. Is it better than nothing? Of course. But it shouldn’t be used as a talking point for legislators when their constituents call worried about shrinking human services. SB 2038 is needed but it’s hardly anything to brag about.

We encourage the leaders in Springfield to aim higher and shed light on the budget framework that this group of brave legislators have built consensus around.

Let’s have that long overdue debate about state priorities that should have started 18 months ago.

Focused they stayed as they placed in every sprint and hurdle race the rest of the day.

State titles also were won in the 4x200 relay (1:39.11) with Nicole Humenik and Ololade Ayoola joining Howell and Hylton, and the 4x400 relay (3:49.84) of Humenik, Ayoola, Brown and Wallace.

Hylton placed second in the 100 (11.84) and the 200 (24.30).

“I lost my form a little at the end,” Hylton said of her runner-up finish in the 100. “But it was still a personal best. I also ran my best in the 200, but in the end we did it. We won the title and I’m so happy. We all did what we came here to do.”

Brown finished seventh in the 100 (12.36) and was sixth in the 400 (58.12).

Pierre-Antoine finished second in the 300 hurdles in a photo finish, losing the title by only .07 of a second (43.34-43.41).

She also was third in the 100 hurdles

(14.25).

“It’s awesome to do it again,” said Pierre-Antoine, who will attend Purdue.

“To contribute for four years and build the legacy that we have is incredible. I’m also very proud to have medaled every year.”

Howell also placed sixth in the 200 (24.63).

“This means a lot,” she said. This is such a close team and is going to be tough to let it go.”

Three juniors who played vital roles for East were Ayoola and Humenik and Lauren LaDere, who placed seventh in the shot put with a throw of 41-0.

“We have worked so hard, pushing and motivating each other,” said Ayoola, who also placed fourth in the high jump (5-6). “We really wanted to end the meet by winning the 4x400 relay. That has eluded us the past few years. What a way to end.”

Humenik runs the leadoff legs of the 4x200 and 4x400 relays and enjoys the role.

“I like leading off those relays,” she said. “It sets the tone for the race and I have confidence in everyone on the relays.”

Humenik had the distinction of winning her fifth state title as a Griffin. It was her third on the track and she has been a part of two cheerleading titles.

“Both have been awesome experiences,” she said. “Everyone has been so supportive on both teams.”

CHARLESTON – A four-peat in any sport is hard to do, especially in high school.

Since the IHSA went to the threeclass system during the 2008-09 school year, the feat was done once – by Springfield Southeast in girls track and field in Class 2A. On Saturday, Lincoln-Way East became the first 3A girls track and field team to accomplish the feat.

The Griffins scored 83 points to easily win the title over runner-up Alton’s 37. It was the most points the Griffins scored in any of their championship years and also was the most points scored by any team in any class since Evanston scored 91 in 2006.

It was the second title for East coach Brian Evans. The other two titles were under the guidance of Wendy Hegarty (2014) and Caroline Gerritson (2013).

“This is a historical moment for girls track and field and Lincoln-Way East,” Evans said. “We take pride in the way we did it. It was across the board in all phases of track and field. We always talk about having a complete team, working hard and having every kid be a part of this. This year was the most comprehensive plan we have ever had for a team.

This is special.”

It also was the fourth girls state title for the Will County area this school year.

Minooka won cross country in the fall, followed by Joliet West in cheerleading and bowling during the winter season.

Before the field events were finished, the Griffins got things going in the 4x800 relay. The team of freshman Jenna Couwenhoven, senior Erin Couwenhoven, senior Kyndall Wallace and senior Alyssa Vogt ran a season best by 15 seconds in qualifying on Friday and came back with a 10th-place finish in the finals.

“Friday, there was a tremendous amount of pressure to get to the finals,” Vogt said. “We placed seventh last year and wanted to contribute to our quest this year. I’m so proud of this relay. We ran our best here at state.

“Sure, it’s disappointing not to place, but to win state all four years of my career is unbelievable. This is such an incredible team, not only this year, but all four years with all the different teammates. It’s something I will cherish for the rest of my life.”

The big indicator of what was coming was in the 4x100 relay as the Griffins won in commanding fashion. Their time of 46.86 was a full second and a half better than second-place Prospect (48.40).

“That was one down, three more races to go,” said leadoff runner Asia Brown, who was joined by fellow seniors Jasmine Howell, Alexis Pierre-Antoine

IHSA GIRLS TRACK AND FIELD STATE FINALS

Minooka duo run to 2nd, 3rd in 3,200

By JEFF DE GRAW

Shaw Media correspondent CHARLESTON – Getting on the medal stand, whether it’s for first place or ninth, always is a goal when competing at the girls state track and field meet.

The Will County area represented itself in all classes Saturday at the 44th state finals at O’Brien Stadium on the campus of Eastern Illinois University.

Besides Lincoln-Way East winning its fourth straight title in Class 3A, Minooka’s distance duo of junior Ashley Tutt and sophomore Emily Shelton placed second and third in the 3,200 meters.

Tutt fought from fourth place down the home stretch to run a 10:39.12, while Shelton, who was in the lead or second for most of the race, used her own lean at the finish to garner third in 10:39.36.

“This is amazing,” Tutt said. “I really was not feeling real good after sectionals last week. I didn’t want to go out real hard today. I got into a rhythm and kept moving up and with three laps to go, I knew I had better really go. I’m so happy for Emily, also. She went after it up front.”

“I ran my race,” said Shelton, who also placed 10th in the 1,600.

Minooka finished 18th in the team standings with 15 points.

“I can’t say enough great things about these girls who competed here this weekend,” Minooka coach Kevin Gummerson said. “It’s not to often you get a great group like this.”

Plainfield North senior Anna Laudizio placed ninth in the long jump (1773⁄4) to conclude her career.

“This was a good way to end my career,” Laudizio said. “It’s been a blessing to have qualified all four years. It was a struggle this year with my quad injury, but I made the most of it and I’m looking forward to competing in college at the University of Dayton.”

Lockport received a ninth-place medal performance from the 4x200 relay (1:44.37) of Jaqueline Mathius, Grace Gliwa, Tori Aguilar and Jaclyn Greci.

It was the first medal the Porters have earned in a sprint relay since 2006.

“This was so much fun,” Greci said.

“Making it to finals was amazing. We didn’t know what to expect, but now with everyone coming back except for Tori (a senior), we already are looking forward to next year.”

CLASS 2A

Providence Catholic led the way in 2A with three medal winners for 13 points and a 23rd-place team finish.

Senior Christina MacNab placed third in the high jump with a leap of 5-6.

“I’m a little disappointed, but I made finals my sophomore and senior years,” she said. “I put it all out there today, so I’m not disappointed in the effort.”

CLASS 1A

Plainfield East’s Lota Onua competes in the long jump during the IHSA Girls Track and Field State Finals on Saturday at Eastern Illinois University in Charleston.

“I’m happy with my four years at Providence and I’m looking forward to the future,” said MacNab, who will attend the University of Iowa. “This big blue track has been special and I’m happy with my performance today.”

Melanie Olson, also a senior, placed fifth in the 100 (12.42) and was ecstatic

over her performance.

“I’m so excited, I never expected this,” she said. “Yesterday during the qualifying I was nervous. Today I had nothing to lose, and I just told myself to go for it.

What a way to end your career.”

Another four-time state qualifier was senior Gianna Lullo, who placed ninth in

Daly Galloway, a junior from the Dwight co-op, led 1A area athletes as she placed fourth in the 3,200 (11:12.98) and fifth in the 1,600 (5:14.50).

“I’ve had a hip flexor problem the last few weeks, but I’m trying to get through it,” Galloway said. “It’s been a transition year for me from last season.”

Seneca got a fifth place from its 4x400 relay of sophomore Miranda Rohder, freshman Natalie Carajohn, junior Emily Woods and freshman Gace Alley. The foursome ran a 4:08.20.

“We gained some great experience this year,” Woods said. “We are already looking forward to next year.”

Alley also placed eighth in the triple jump (35-9), an event she just started this year.

“I was kind of bummed with only an eighth place,” she said. “But this whole experience was awesome.

Seneca’s Cora Wilkinson, a junior, placed seventh in the long jump.

by Lemont’s Faraz Longi and Peter Rogers on Saturday during the Joliet Township Boys Tennis Sectional Tournament at Joliet West High School. Lockport won first place. season, and our team is really developing,” Pindak said. “We were able to put balls away today when we needed to.”

Three of the four qualifying doubles teams punched their state tickets with straight-set quarterfinal victories.

The exception was Minooka’s Christensen-Schieffer, who survived Romeoville sophomores Martin Rayos del Sol and Jacob Armea, 6-3, 1-6, 6-4, before falling to Lemont’s Longi-Rogers, 7-5, 6-3, in the semifinals.

Still, the Randall-Geissler battle for the singles championship was the match everyone wanted to see.

“He (Geissler) is a great player,” Randall said. “We’ve known each other for a long time. We’re good friends. The score (6-2, 6-0) is not reflective of the kind of match it was. There were lots of long points and close games.”

“I don’t think I was patient enough,” Geissler said “I was getting frustrated. I was going for it too quickly. Oh,

well, I’ll move on go to state and will take all that I can from this.”

JCA coach Scott Allgood noted the tightness of the match, especially the first set.

“The first set, there were a lot of games that could have gone either way,” he said. “This result doesn’t take anything from the leader (Geissler) has been for us for four years.”

Geissler will be in his fourth state tournament in singles. Last year, he won three matches and said he finished “in the top 40, or something like that.

This year I hope to win more than I did last year. My goal is the top 32.”

Randall made the top 16 last year and lost in three sets in his final Friday match.

“Getting to Saturday is definitely a goal this year,” he said. “I at least want to get into the top six, possibly win it all.”

Geissler beat Rayos del Sol, 7-5, 6-3, in the semifinals while Randall was beating Red, 6-1, 6-0.

“The semis were tough, too,” Randall said. “That score wasn’t reflective of our match. Morgan’s a great player. So is Miguel. All four of us can do very well at state.”

“Randall is really a good player,” Red said. “It’s hard to grind out points against him. Geissler and Miguel are very good, too.”

JOLIET – Although only a sophomore, Lockport’s Jack Randall may be headed for something special in next weekend’s Boys State Tennis Tournament.

Randall began his postseason trek Saturday when he beat Joliet Catholic senior Jack Geissler, 6-2, 6-0, in the singles championship match at the Joliet West Sectional. That effort, along with the doubles titles secured

by Lockport juniors Nolan Gilbertson and Lucas Pindak with a 6-3, 6-2 victory over Lemont juniors Faraz Longi and Peter Rogers, guided the Porters to a second straight sectional title.

“This is the first time we’ve had the champions in singles and doubles,” Lockport coach Bob Champlin noted.

The Porters finished with 24 points to 17 for runner-up Joliet West co-op, which scored 17. Lemont finished third with 15 and Romeoville and Minooka tied for fourth with 14. JCA totaled eight points, Providence six and Bolingbrook and Lincoln-Way West failed to score.

The top four finishers in singles and doubles qualified for state. In the loaded singles bracket, Joliet West sophomore Morgan Red beat Romeoville senior Miguel Rayos del Sol, 6-4, 4-6, 6-1, for third place.

“Red played well, and all our guys did,” West coach Kit Gillman said.

“We did fine. We were the only team that scored points in all four divisions (two singes, two doubles).”

Lemont’s unseeded second doubles team of sophomores Charles Balisalisa and Arjan Reddigan, the surprise of the tournament, claimed third place with a 3-6, 6-0, 6-3 victory over Minooka’s Reed Christensen and Thomas Schieffer. The Lemont duo beat the sixth, third and fifth seeds, losing only in the semifinals to Lockport’s Gilbertson and Pindak, 6-3, 6-2.

“I can’t believe it, both of our doubles teams going to state,” Lemont coach Jon DeGuzman said. “We weren’t expecting our No. 2 team to do what it did. It exceeded all expectations. And Peter (Rogers) and Faraz (Longi) came in with a solid seed because of the great season they have had. They played within themselves, really smart.”

Gilbertson, who moved up from playing fourth doubles as a sophomore to first doubles this season, said he and Pindak “had a target on our back. Everyone wants to beat the No. 1 seed. But we played real well. I feel good about what we can do at state.”

“Nolan did a lot of work in the off-

40 CLASS 3A JOLIET WEST REGIONAL SOCCER CHAMPIONSHIP: MINOOKA 4, EAST MOLINE 0

Teamwork, depth lift Minooka to regional title

By DICK GOSS

dgoss@shawmedia.com JOLIET – For 38-plus minutes, the Minooka girls dominated the Class 3A Joliet West Regional soccer championship match Friday afternoon against East Moline United.

The problem was the Indians had a zero on the scoreboard to show for their efforts.

Finally, the breakthrough. Senior midfielder Hannah Rieker placed a corner kick in front of the net and freshman forward Brooke Brodzinski, who earlier had hit the crossbar from 25 yards out, headed it home with 1:35 left in the first half for a 1-0 lead. Minooka went on to score a 4-0 victory and advance to the Normal Community Sectional semifinal at 5 p.m. Tuesday against Normal, the No. 1 sub-sectional seed.

“That one was one of the most accurate we had all season,” Rieker said of her corner kick.

“I was so excited for Brooke,” said senior midfielder Maggie Ward, who scored one goal and was part of another in a second half where Minooka scored three times while demonstrating teamwork to the nth degree. “She always

heads the ball in practice, especially on corner kicks. I think that’s the second one she scored on all season.”

Leading to the corner kick was freshman midfielder Maddy Lant nearly scoring from about 25 yards out. Blake Mack, the goalie for East Moline (14-8-1), dove to her right and deflected the ball just enough to deny Lant.

With the lift provided by Brodzinski’s goal, Minooka (15-4) continued to be the aggressor. The other three Indians’ goals did not start happening until the final 20 minutes, but every one was worthy of the highlight reel.

First, midfielder Kennedy Messina found Rieker racing down the sideline with a long pass. Rieker got into scoring position and passed to Hailey Arlis, whose touch pass to Ward set up her goal with 19:22 left.

“Hailey was like, ‘I was trying to shoot it and couldn’t,’ “ Ward said. “I was in the right place at the right time.

We had good momentum the whole game, but we needed one there to feel more secure. Then we went on and sealed the deal.”

A few minutes later, Brodzinski started an attack with a long pass to Ward moving down the left side. She

passed to freshman midfielder Kaleigh Murphy, who set up junior midfielder Martina Kotrba for the first of her two goals with 15:40 remaining.

Kotrba closed the scoring with 4:59 left when she made a strong move to get into scoring position after receiving a pass from Hailey Arlis.

“We had really good passing,” said Kotrba, who had scored one goal all season previously. “That was our strong point. That, and the way we practiced shooting yesterday.”

“The way we scored in the second half is really a credit to our center mids,” Minooka coach Chris Brolley said. “We were able to distribute to the sides. We love playing on turf and on wide fields like this.”

The rest of the story was defense as Sydney Arlis, Macie Alexa, Vanessa Ramos, Maddie Alessio and Cassady Cundari provided a relatively light afternoon for freshman goalkeeper Bella Alessio.

“Our mindset on defense is to back up our offense,” Sydney Arlis said. “We definitely are one of the more physical teams around. No one is shy about getting a bruise or two, if that’s what it takes.”

“This was definitely a team win,”

Brolley said. “We scored some nice goals, and Bella (Alessio) made a big save when the game was 1-0.”

Minooka’s depth and speed on the turf were evident. Even with freshman forward Maddie Morin sidelined with an ankle injury, Brolley called on plenty of reserve strength.

“Our bench could start for a lot of teams,” he said. “We see the evidence of that late in games. This is probably the seventh or eighth game where we finished strong like this.”

“We really stepped up to the challenge,” Sydney Arlis said. “We focused and did a great job trusting our teammates. Our center mids had a great game. They are some of the best.”

Ward agreed.

“We have some fast girls,” she said.

“Our two forwards and center mids are so good.”

The regional title is Minooka’s fourth, following 1982, 1999 and 2013.

“We have a long road ahead,” Rieker said. “I can’t wait to see there this goes.”

“This will be good experience for all our younger players, and it’s a good experience for our seniors,” Ward said.

CLASS 3A PLAINFIELD NORTH SOCCER REGIONAL: METEA VALLEY 3, PLAINFIELD NORTH 0

Without fresh legs, Plainfield North falls to Metea Valley at regionals

By KAITLYN JASNICA

kjasnica@shawmedia.com PLAINFIELD – Sometimes it is hard to win a poker match when some of the best cards are not in the deck.

That was the case Friday night for Plainfield North’s soccer team.

After being plagued with injuries this season, the Tigers fell in its 3A Plainfield North Regional final match, 3-0, to Metea Valley.

Despite the loss, North had another strong season with a 14-7-2 record.

“Going in, we have goals,” Tigers coach Jane Crowe said. “One of them is to win conference, which we did that again. This was actually our eighth straight conference championship. That’s always a positive.

“But to be honest, starting the season and looking at the senior class, and actually the depth we thought we had early, we thought that this could be our best team that we’ve ever had. I really think that with everyone healthy, we had the most talent we’ve ever had. We just had

too many injuries and we didn’t have the depth beyond that to stay at that level.”

With Tate Barney and Jessica Plesnicar sidelined due to torn ACLs, Abigail Gustafson out with a stress fracture and Reyse Stirrett having limited play because of shin splints, the Tigers did not have as deep of a bench as they would have liked in the postseason.

In the first half, North outplayed its opponent and had chances to take the lead.

The Tigers applied pressure and had control of the game, but just couldn’t capitalize.

Freshman Molly Grant led the Tigers with 16 goals this season and had many quality chances throughout the game.

So did a lot of her teammates.

Senior Samantha Elster had a good shot, but just missed high. With the score still tied at 0-0, junior Megan Breier had an opening and rang one off the post.

A few minutes later, Taylor Rohm scored the only goal Metea Valley

needed. Katherine Wieland and Chesney Wargo added the security.

“Once we got scored on, I think we all kind of panicked,” Elster said. “It affected our play.”

After the first goal, the Tigers stopped putting on as much pressure.

It wasn’t a fear of playing from behind that made them change their play. Unlike previous games, their opponent was talented enough that they needed fresh legs.

Metea Valley was able to sub in players and give their starters rest.

North, on the other hand, rotated 12 for the entire game.

“I think with what we had at the end, I think that we got as much out of them as we could at the point,” Crowe said. “That’s what I just told them. I can’t fault your efforts. They worked hard. You could just see they didn’t have it in them anymore.

I think it was frustrating for them knowing that if we just had those few extra players to give us a break, who knows what would have happened.”

Maybe with the few extra sets of legs, the Tigers would have walked

away with their fourth consecutive regional championship.

Eight seniors will walk away from that legacy.

Elster will play at Washington University in St. Louis, while Reyse Stirrett will go to IPFW, Dana O’Boye Arkansas State, Kendyl Keay Winona State and Emily DeVaux Wisconsin-Parkside. Raven Withaar, Emily DeVaux, Megan Pertile and Emma Veselsky also graduate from the program.

“A lot of the players on this team have played together 3-4 years,” Elster said. “It’s really hard knowing that we’re not going to play together again, but I’m really proud of all that this team has done in the past three years.

“I am really happy I was a Tiger. I had a great career.”

“We were very successful the past four years,” Keay agreed. “We won regionals the first three years. When I was a freshman, that was our first time winning. We would’ve loved to keep the streak going, but like Sam said, I’m glad I was a Tiger.”

The 3-year-old colt kept gaining ground along the rail. Jockey Kent Desormeaux saw an opening around the final turn, angled outside and Exaggerator took over.

Nyquist, with Mario Gutierrez aboard finished third, followed by Stradivari, Lani, Laoban, Uncle Lino, Fellowship, Awesome Speed, Collected and Abiding Star.

Winning time for the race was 1:58.31.

Trained by Kent’s younger brother, Keith, Exaggerator showed his talent in the slop once again.

He won the Santa Anita Derby over a sloppy track, and did the same in the Preakness.

It was the first Preakness winner for the trainer who began his career in Maryland, and third for the Hall of Fame rider.

The crowd was estimated at a record 134,000.

BALTIMORE – Finally, Exaggerator has beaten Nyquist, and it came in the Preakness on Saturday to end any chance of another Triple Crown.

Seizing the lead at the top of the stretch, Exaggerator splashed past a tiring Nyquist and went on for a 31⁄2-length victory over Cherry Wine on a raindrenched Pimlico Race Course.

Exaggerator’s elusive victory over his nemesis came after four tough losses, including a runner-up finish to Nyquist in the Kentucky Derby.

Nyquist was sent off as the 3-5 favorite in the 11-horse field, and dueled with Uncle Lino for the lead through the first mile of the 13⁄16th-mile second leg of the Triple Crown.

And then it was all Exaggerator – no kidding.

42 CLASS 3A DOWNERS GROVE NORTH BOYS TRACK SECTIONAL

Area athletes shine at DG North Sectional

By CURT HERRON

cherron@shawmedia.com DOWNERS GROVE – The preliminaries are over and now it’s time to get down to business for athletes such as Derrius Rodgers, Jaylan McConico and Chris Thompson.

The three seniors, who were individual state place-winners last year, had big days at Friday’s Class 3A Downers Grove North Sectional and will set their focus on next weekend’s IHSA track and field finals at Eastern Illinois University in Charleston.

They were joined by seniors Wade Walder, Justin Rivers and Victor Osinloye and sophomore John Meyer as individual champions while Lockport’s 4x200 relay also won a title.

Lockport’s Rodgers, who won titles in both the 100 (10.73) and 200 (21:47), also joined Chris Gargano, Jesse Bustami and Sheldon Snapp on a first place 4x200 relay (1:27.69) and on a runner-up

4x100 relay (42.55).

“All of our hard work and practices have been paying off and it all leads up to this moment,” Rodgers said. “We know that we’re not finished or satisfied and we’re ready to do big things at state. We’re really excited about our relays since we’ve come a long way by getting better in each and every meet.

We need to make some small adjustments, but we think we’re ready.”

Coach Tom Razo’s Porters, who took second to Sandburg by a 98-88 margin, also got titles from Walder in pole vault (13-7) and Meyer in shot put (6010). Meyer, who took ninth at state in discus last year, was second in discus (165-0). Matt Chmielewski was the runner-up in shot put (52-9.5) and Bustami took third and qualified in long jump (22-4.5).

Bolingbrook’s McConico swept the hurdles, winning the 110 (14.25) and the 300 (39.35). Last year at state, McConico was seventh in the 110 hurdles. Coach

Art Pahl’s squad also got a sectional title from Rivers in high jump (6-5).

“That race was a little rough but I’ve been having a good season and it’s been a steady progression,” McConico said. “I’m ready to go to state after everything I learned last year. I’m not going to take everything around me in account and will just stay really focused for the races. When I get there, I’m just going to try to try to do my best and hope for the best.”

The Raiders, who were fourth with 62 points, also took second in the 4x200 relay (1:28.51) with Tanner Banks, Shawn Showalter, Nana Akenten and Tyler Elmore, who was on last year’s sixth-place 4x200 relay. Showalter also qualified after placing third in the 200 (22.17) and fourth in the 100 (10.93).

Lemont’s Thompson took first place in the 400 (48.72), winning by over a second.

Last year at state, Thompson claimed sixth place in the event. He

also was a member of a 4x400 relay (3:24.51) that finished in second place.

“This is my senior year, so I’m definitely looking forward to having a strong finish,” Thompson said. “I needed this race since, midway through the season, I got hurt with a sprained hamstring and missed a bunch and got really behind. But I’ve been killing it at practice and finally have caught up back to where I was. I’m starting to peak at the end when it counts.”

Romeoville’s lone qualifier was Osinloye, who edged Meyer to win the title in discus (165-5).

“I had an injury about eight weeks ago, and that’s why I didn’t throw shot this year,” Osinloye said. “I sprained my wrist and it hurt when I throw shot, but discus was fine. I hoped to go down for the two events, but it didn’t happen, so I’m focusing on this. Last year’s competition at state really inspired me to train and I’ve broken the school and conference records.”

the sectional semifinals. The Pioneers, who finished third in Class 1A last season, advanced with a 3-2 overtime win over Metamora.

“We tell our kids that records go out the window because at this point, everybody is battling to extend their season,” Theiss said. “We knew what we were going to get out of Morris, since they’re a good, organized, physical team that didn’t want to go down easily. We had some excellent combinations, girls were targeting feet, movement was good and our forwards were active. We created some prime opportunities, but we just couldn’t finish.

“You have to credit our girls in the second half. We told them that it doesn’t have to be pretty and sure enough, Sam sends a long ball and Heyer just wanted it more, and that’s what we’ve seen from her all season. It was a good game for us since it’s going to make us a better team. We have a young group and we saw some nerves, but the senior leaders did a great job of stepping up and calming them down and made sure we played our style.”

In the opening half, West got good chances from Madison Mikalauski, Me-

gan Shelton, Jane Pinkerton and Heyer but Bashor was able to deny each try.

It was more of the same after the break with Anna Kirk and Brianne Owen being thwarted before Heyer struck.

Although down, Morris (8-8-1) was not out as Jocelyn Wren’s close shot went just wide. Then after Owen bounced one off the crossbar and Breanna Bembenek had a try halted, Summer Shaw sent in a perfect corner kick but West keeper Erin Toomey deflected the attempt away to preserve her 11th shutout.

Although possessing a young team with only five seniors and having limited experience playing on the turf, Morris turned in an excellent effort. That left coach Kristen Porter feeling proud of this year’s squad and being upbeat about her program’s future.

“The girls left it all on the field since they didn’t want to the season to end,” Porter said. “For them to play that well in the first half and hold Lincoln-Way to zero was great. At halftime, we were exactly where we wanted to be. We just had to put something together up top and score, and we weren’t able to do that.”

NEW LENOX – Jeff Theiss likes how his Lincoln-Way West girls soccer team continues to battle in a match and that perseverance definitely paid off on Saturday.

Competing against a Morris squad that used a good defensive strategy to keep things scoreless for over an hour in the Class 2A Lincoln-Way West Regional final, the Warriors finally made something out of nothing in the 62nd minute, and it proved to be the difference.

Sam Sarna sent a long pass forward to Brianna Heyer, who headed the ball as Morris keeper Maren Bashor was charging in her direction, and the attempt found its way into the open net as West won, 1-0, to advance to Tuesday’s Peoria Notre Dame Sectional.

“We had a lot of chances but were missing wide or right over,” Heyer said. “That gets frustrating, but the biggest thing is that you can’t put your head down. You just have to keep going. One of the things that we wanted to show them from the beginning was

that we’re going to work hard and then add the soccer and it will work out.

“Sam played a great ball over the top and it had the right bounce on it. I didn’t even know the keeper was coming out at me, I just looked at the ball and went after it. We’ve become a really close group, even though we have 10 freshmen. Everyone is together and it’s paid off. We have chemistry and know that everyone has each others’ backs.”

Sarna, who is one of the 10 freshmen on the 17-6 squad, wasn’t expecting much when she sent her pass forward to Heyer, but she was certainly pleased by the result.

“I honestly didn’t think that would happen and I was really shocked afterward,” Sarna said. “It’s really fun being a part of this varsity team since we connect very well from the freshmen to the seniors. What I love about this group is the passion that we have for soccer and all of the trust that we have for each other. We hang out all of the time and you can see that when we play. We’re just a big, happy family.”

It was the third-straight regional title for the Warriors, who take on Rock Island Alleman on Tuesday at 7 p.m. in

44 KANSAS CITY 2, WHITE SOX 1

White Sox hitters continue to sputter with loss to KC

By SARAH TROTTO

The Associated Press

CHICAGO – The Chicago White Sox know they need to do better at the plate. They’re far from panicking.

Lorenzo Cain hit a solo home run and five Kansas City pitchers combined to allow seven hits in the Royals’ 2-1 victory over the slumping White Sox on Saturday.

Danny Duffy and Peter Moylan combined for six scoreless innings. Joakim Soria (2-1) worked out of a seventh-inning jam and Wade Davis pitched a hitless ninth for his 11th save in Kansas City’s second straight win over the AL Central leaders.

Chicago has lost eight of 10.

The White Sox have scored fewer than three runs in each of their last three games.

“It’s our first real kind of test in the division, and the Royals are doing their job and we basically are not,” White Sox third baseman Todd Frazier said. “As hitters, we have to keep coming prepared. I’ve got to start studying a little more seeing these new guys I’m facing and get ready to go.”

Cain’s leadoff shot to center in the sixth off Miguel Gonzalez (0-1) made it 2-0 after Eric Hos-

mer’s first-inning sacrifice fly.

The Royals won for the sixth time in eight games despite needing bullpen help with Duffy on a pitch limit. He allowed four hits in 41⁄3 innings.

Royals third baseman Mike Moustakas, activated off the disabled list after missing more than two weeks with a left thumb injury, went 0 for 4 with three strikeouts and misplayed a bunt to load the bases with nobody out in the seventh.

The White Sox snapped a 13-inning scoreless streak on Jose Abreu’s bases-loaded double-play grounder in the seventh.

Soria replaced Brian Flynn and induced Abreu’s double play, then got Frazier to ground to third.

Not even more lineup tinkering by manager Robin Ventura could get the White Sox out of their offensive funk.

Jerry Sands played first base and hit cleanup, with Melky Cabrera moved to fifth.

Abreu hit second for the second straight day and was the DH and Tyler Saladino was again at shortstop in place of struggling Jimmy Rollins.

Rollins struck out pinch-hitting for Sands in the eighth for Chicago, which has scored four runs in three games.

SAN FRANCISCO 5, CUBS 3

Cain, Posey lead San Francisco over Cubs

By GIDEON RUBIN

The Associated Press

SAN FRANCISCO – Matt Cain pitched six strong innings and helped himself with the bat, Buster Posey added a two-run homer and the San Francisco Giants beat the Chicago Cubs, 5-3, on Saturday.

Cain (1-5) got his first victory since July 22, 2015, snapping a streak of 15 consecutive winless starts. The Giants were 3-12 over that stretch.

The Giants won for the ninth time in 10 games, and the Cubs fell to 2-3 on their nine-game road trip.

Cain had surgery to remove bone chips in his elbow in 2014, and then did stints on the disabled list in 2015 for a flexor tendon strain and elbow nerve irritation.

He threw his third straight quality start for the first time since 2014 (June 28 to July 9).

Cain’s resurgence coincided with Jon Lester’s worst start of the season. Lester (4-3) allowed five runs on six hits and three walks.

Cain entered with the worst run support in the majors (1.96 runs per game) and took matters into his own hands, crushing a 3-2 fastball over center

fielder Dexter Fowler’s head for a two-out, two-run double in the bottom of the second.

Posey hit a two-run homer to left – his fifth – during a threerun third in which the Giants chased Lester.

Cain’s only mistake came in the third, when he hung a 3-2 slider to Kris Bryant. Bryant pounced, clearing the 399-foot sign in straightaway center with his ninth homer.

Dexter Fowler was 3 for 5 and homered leading off the ninth against closer Santiago Casilla, who got the next three outs for his 11th save.

Cubs: Outfielder Jason Heyward suffered a contusion on his right side after making a diving catch in Friday’s game and will be out three to five days. ... The Cubs activated outfielder Matt Szczur from the 15-day disabled list and designated righthander Neil Ramirez for assignment.

Giants manager Bruce Bochy said he noticed Pence hobbling after hustling down the line earlier this week in San Diego and that Pence confirmed that he’s experiencing soreness on his lower right hamstring.

Community encouraged to do both through Shorewood HUGS

By DENISE M. BARAN–UNLAND

Submit a hug or wish

dunland@shawmedia.com

S

HOREWOOD – Last year, Shorewood HUGS fulfilled 114 nominations for its Hugs & Wishes program.

This year, the organization wants to surpass that amount.

But it needs your help.

The Shorewood-based nonprofit exists solely to “touch the lives and hearts of people and make a positive impact, one hug at a time,” President Susan Underwood said.

“I think sometimes people aren’t sure of what to do or how to nominate somebody,” Underwood said. “It doesn’t have to be someone with an illness. It could be someone special to you that has gone above and beyond for a long time or someone struggling.

Just to know that someone has reached out and nominated them will brighten their day.”

Sometimes people think helping means writing a check, Underwood said, which is always needed and appreciated.

But in the case of Shorewood HUGS, it also means letting the organization – through the person submitting the nomination – bless the “neighbor who’s watched my kids for six years and never taken a penny” and other people who are special like that.

While the amounts appear small compared with overall need – $250 for a hug and $500 for a wish – recipients are generally “tickled pink” that someone thought they were deserving and took the time to show it, Underwood said.

“It’s a way of telling someone, ‘Hey, you touched my life and I want to let you know you mean something to me,’” Underwood said.

Simply receiving a hug or a wish often inspires a recipient to do likewise. Underwood recalled fulfilling a wish last year for a woman whose

In 2015, Shorewood HUGS helped with expenses while the family traveled to the Mayo Clinic in Minnesota so Kennedy’s father, Reginald Gooch, could continue his cancer treatments. Reginald died in February, and Kennedy honored her father’s memory by asking her guests to donate to Shorewood HUGS instead of giving her birthday presents. breast cancer was in remission for five years.

Underwood said that woman then nominated another cancer patient. Shorewood HUGS presented him with gas cards so he could receive treatment at Mayo Clinic. On April 23, his daughter asked for donations to Shorewood HUGS at her ninth birthday party instead of gifts.

“That really is full circle,” Underwood said. “It’s touching and represents what Shorewood HUGS is all about.”

Hugs & Wishes

According to Shorewood HUGS, the organization began its Hugs & Wishes program in 2009 to help people with their struggles, show them someone cares and give them hope.

The program is funded primarily from the annual

Hugs & Wishes Chocolate Ball, which is held in February. According to its website, Shorewood HUGS has donated nearly $250,000 to the community.

To date, Shorewood HUGS has fulfilled more than 400 wishes.

“Hugs” are normally $250 or less and are intended for people who have gone through a difficult time or touched others in an exceptional way.

Need ideas? Past examples include: • Spa day for a friend just diagnosed with breast cancer.

• Lunch or dinner with a friend who had a difficult time.

• Tickets to a play for a neighbor struggling with an illness.

• Flower garden to brighten a day for a sad woman who lost her husband.

• Gift basket for a selfless mother who has helped everyone over the years.

• Sports game for a Father’s Day wish.

• New bike for a child who lost both parents.

Wishes are generally $500 or less – depending on the need – and are fulfilled for people living with an illness or disability, or in need of financial assistance or help after a natural disaster. Examples include: • Holiday lights on a house for a teacher with pancreatic cancer.

• iPad for a visually impaired student.

• Horseback riding lessons for a child with autism.

• Lift chair for a tornado victim.

• Replace toys for children who lost everything from tornado.

• Nominations are limited to one wish per person or family, with the exception of extreme circumstances.

• Documentation may be required from a medical representative or school teacher, depending on the wish.

• Nominees must live within a 20-mile radius of Shorewood.

• Shorewood HUGS does not pay rent or bills of any kind.

• Skydiving lessons for a man diagnosed with lung cancer.

• Nights in a hotel for flood victims.

• Funds for cancer survivors.

• Gas cards to help with transportation expenses from cancer treatment.

• Help for homeless living in cars.

• Clothes or supplies for children going back to school.

• Laptop for college student • Grocery cards for families.

• Wal-Mart, Target or Visa gift cards for financial need.

• Assistance for memorials.

• Holiday assistance for families.

Joliet Job Corps Center students learn about sustainable farming The HERALD–NEWS JOLIET – Joliet Job Corps Center students learned about sustainable farming while visiting Creekside Natural Farm at 1221 W. Bell Road in Minooka. Owners Bill and Pam Kunke grow vegetables while also raising chickens and selling the eggs. They also have a vegetable stand in season and offer fiber from their seven alpacas, the South American animal that is a cousin to the llama.

Although the couple does not use the term “organic” when describing their operation, the growing, fertilizing and bug control methods are natural, and the farm’s sys-

tems are designed to work together with the goal of longterm sustainability.

The trip to the farm was organized for a group of the Center’s Culinary Arts students to celebrate Earth Day. Although formally observed on April 22, the students enjoyed events throughout the month and in May. They collected unneeded textbooks for donation at SCARCE, the Glen Ellyn-based nonprofit that has a book depository; they made toys for dogs out of old T-shirts to give to Cache Creek Animal Rescue, 1003 Star Lane, New Lenox; and they planted a rose garden at the center, among other activities.

Calcium supplements not necessary Dear Dr. K: Many years ago, my doctor told me that men, like women, should take calcium supplements. So I have been. Now I hear that it’s a bad idea. What do you think?

Dear Reader: All of us – patients and doctors – wish we had all the answers, and that the answers never changed. Unfortunately, the way the human body works, and malfunctions, is very complicated. To understand it, we conduct research. But no study is perfect, and the answers sometimes change as larger and better studies are conducted.

There’s no doubt we all need calcium.

It helps muscles to contract, blood to clot and nerves to communicate, and it plays an important role in building strong teeth and bones. As a result, many people take calcium supplements for bone health.

One recent study followed the health of nearly 400,000 men and women. Over the course of 12 years, men who took more than 1,000 milligrams (mg) of supplemental calcium a day were 20 percent more likely to succumb to heart disease than those who didn’t take calcium supplements. But there was no connection between calcium supplements and heart disease in women, and there was no connection with calcium from food.

Another recent study followed more than 61,000 women in Sweden. Among women who took more than 1,400 mg a day of calcium supplements, the risk of premature death was more than doubled – particularly death from heart disease.

Both of these studies involved large numbers of people and were conducted carefully.

Yet they were observational studies, and you can’t make judgments about cause and effect from such studies. They clearly showed that men and women who took relatively high doses of calcium supplements had higher risks.

But that doesn’t prove the calcium supplements were the cause of higher rates of heart problems and death.

SUDOKU

ASK DOCTOR K Anthony L. Komaroff Moreover, other studies like these have not found an increased risk of heart disease from calcium supplements, in either men or women.

So the question of whether men should take calcium supplements is controversial.

My advice to patients, advice I follow myself, is to emphasize calcium-rich foods rather than to take calcium pills. Men do not need as much calcium as women because we are less likely to develop osteoporosis (thinning of the bones).

Surely, you should not forsake all calcium.

Everyone needs calcium to keep bones strong, taken in conjunction with bone-building vitamin D. Losing calcium weakens bones and leaves them more prone to breaking.

With the safety of calcium supplements in question, try to get as much calcium as possible from food. Good calcium sources include: • Low-fat milk and cheese.

• Calcium-fortified orange juice or soy milk.

• Breakfast cereals (which also are fortified).

• Leafy greens, particularly kale, turnip greens and Swiss chard. (Go easy on spinach.

It is high in iron, which tends to block calcium absorption.)

• Sardines and other canned fish with bones included.

I’m sure there will be more research studies on this important question, and I’ll keep you posted.

• Write to Dr. Komaroff at www.askdoctork.com or Ask Doctor K, 10 Shattuck St., Second Floor, Boston, MA 02115.

Housemate draws the line at sharing her meatloaf

Dear Abby: I share a large house with two other women. The homeowner, “Mary,” works from a home office during the day. “Sue” is her baby sister.

She has two small children and doesn’t work. She lives here rent-free thanks to Mary’s generosity. I pay rent. We keep all our food separate and eat our meals separately. We each have our assigned shelves in the refrigerator and cupboards.

Today, I mentioned to Sue I was making meatloaf tonight, and before I could say I’ll save you a slice, she invited herself to help me eat it. I was so flabbergasted I couldn’t think of a response. She also told both of her kids and a girlfriend of hers who came over to visit that “we” all were having meatloaf for dinner. I didn’t realize it until the last minute.

I don’t mind sharing once in a while, but I live on a fixed income. I

BE A GOOD

DEAR ABBY Jeanne Phillips had planned for the meatloaf to last the rest of the week for my dinners and sandwiches for lunch. I finally told her, just as the meatloaf was done, that I had made it for myself and not to share with everyone.

Now I feel like a heel, but I’m realizing whenever I make a large amount of food, Sue seems to think it’s to share.

Why am I feeling bad about this when it was she who put me on the spot? How can I avoid this in the future? This isn’t the first time it has happened. – Puzzled

In The West Dear Puzzled: You may feel guilty

because you are not used to standing up

NEIGHBOR

for yourself, but if you don’t speak up, this person will not respect your boundaries. Sue should not assume she’s entitled to any of your food regardless of the amount you prepare. To prevent this from happening again, schedule a house meeting – without the children – and say it loud and clear.

Dear Abby: My family is colorful, to say the least. Many coworkers, neighbors, friends and in-laws have asked me why I haven’t written a book about my life because of the stories I have told them over the years about my family.

I always have wanted to, and feel there are enough stories to not only fill one book but several. Some of them are so funny, scary, sad and outrageous I see a miniseries or a movie being possible.

My dilemma is how my brothers and sisters will react to my putting it all on paper and the world seeing it in print. I

kept telling myself, “Just wait ’til Mom (many stories start with her) passes away, so she won’t be hurt.” Well, now she’s gone.

What do you think? Should I write it all down or not? If the answer is yes, how do I tell my brothers and sisters?

Or should I not tell them at all? – Family

Secrets Dear Family Secrets: If you would like

to write the stories down, that’s your privilege. However, if there is anything in them that could be hurtful or embarrassing to your relatives, I recommend you change all the names and locations, and publish it under a pen name. Some of the greatest writers of the past have done that with great success.

SUNDAY HOROSCOPE

By EUGENIA LAST

Newspaper Enterprise Association TODAY – You’ll have to keep things in perspective this year, regardless of what others do. Don’t give in to temptation or someone trying to entice you to take part in something dubious. Hard work will bring the rewards you are looking for, but shortcuts will not.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) – A partnership will need proper attention. Stick to the basics and say what’s in your heart. Greater stability can be yours if you are honest and work diligently to make improvements.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) – You can start something new that will improve your environment by

offering to help others. Open your doors for group meetings or start a project that will help you build new skills.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) – A financial proposal may sound good, but joint ventures aren’t in your best interest. You are best off investing in yourself.

Personal developments and educational pursuits are favored.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) – Handle domestic situations with caution. Emotions will escalate fast, making it difficult for you to get things done.

Offer love and compassion instead of criticism and complaints. Make romance a priority.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) – Visit a friend or go somewhere you haven’t been for a long time. Your observations will encourage you to improve your

life. Consider a program or course and check out online employment opportunities.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) – Make romantic plans or join a group or service that is geared toward meeting new people. Don’t be afraid to be different. Your unique nature will attract someone special.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) – Be prudent when it comes to spending. You won’t gain points trying to buy someone’s interest. Offer an adventurous outing that costs little. Let your personality be the attraction.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) – You have plenty to offer and to gain by discussing projects, investments and plans with someone who thinks as you do.

Financial or personal gains are heading your way.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) – Don’t be afraid to make a change. Follow your instincts and the latest trends in order to discover a lucrative plan. A home business can be your ticket to freedom.

PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) – Move forward with caution. Sharing your personal feelings or plans will be costly. Don’t give in to pressure. Be secretive and intent on pursuing your goals.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) – A gift, proposal or financial gain is heading your way. A partnership will help you cut costs and bring you greater happiness and good fortune. Apply for a prestigious position.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) – Expand your interests and experience by taking part in an event that will bring about positive change. Someone you meet will offer insight regarding a decision you must make.

Glenn Close said, “I love the chemistry that can be created on stage between the actors and the audience. It’s molecular even, the energies that can go back and forth.”

I like to sit in the front row of a theater to experience the chemistry between the actors.

In bridge, declarers need to concentrate on going back and forth between their hand and the board.

How is that important in this deal?

South is in four spades. How should he play after West leads the heart queen? As a secondary issue, what was West’s better opening lead?

In the auction, East was tempted to intervene with two no-trump to show at least 5-5 in the minors, but the vulnerability was unfavorable, his hand was not that good, and the opponents owned the spade suit. (Note that five diamonds doubled costs 800 if South gets a club ruff.)

South should play to ruff his diamond losers on the board. But where should he take the first trick?

Suppose the play starts heart queen to the ace, diamond ace, diamond ruff. What happens next?

Declarer can play a club, but East can win and shift to his trump.

South must take the first trick on the board, play a diamond to his ace, ruff a diamond, lead a heart to his ace, ruff his second diamond, and run the spade jack. Then everything is under control.

If West leads the club six, and East shifts to a spade, that defeats the contract. If South wins with his spade ace and ruffs both diamond losers, he will eventually concede two spades, one heart and one club.
