superintendent, business manager

By FELIX SARVER fsarver@shawmedia.com

LOCKPORT – The Fairmont School District 89 Board of Education picked an interim leader and business manager at Thursday’s special meeting.

The board approved, 5-0, a contract employing Lela Bridges, a former superintendent of Harvey School District 152, as the District 89 interim superintendent at a per diem rate of $825 for up to 100 days.

Bridges, who retired from District 152 in 2010, will replace Sonya Whitaker.

Whitaker announced her resignation May 18, the day after her employment contract as superintendent of Harvey School District 152 was signed.

The board also approved, 5-0, the contract employing Teri Shaw, former superintendent of Morris Elementary School District 54, as interim business

manager at a per diem rate of $650.

Shaw, who resigned from District 54 in December, will replace David Holm.

Board President Katie Ulmer said the hires of Bridges and Shaw were good choices.

“They seemed to be what we’re looking for to be moving in the right direction,” she said.

Over the past several months, board meetings have been contentious with disputes over legal and financial issues.

The disputes mostly occurred between board Vice President Joseph Ryan and other board members, including Ulmer.

Ryan resigned June 17 – the official last day for Whitaker at District 89 – citing his disagreements with board members and Whitaker’s resignation as his reason for leaving.

The board is looking for candidates to fill a seat and the deadline is July 13.

Board member Charles Travis was absent from Thursday’s meeting.

Fund transfers

Before the board approved an interim superintendent and business manager, it approved the transfer of $163,000 from the district’s transportation fund to the education fund.

A public hearing on the fund transfer was held, and Ulmer called on Shaw to explain the need for the transfer.

Shaw said the tax levy of 2014, which funds the 2016 budget, purposefully had an increase in the transportation fund because of the declining overall assessed property values prevalent in the state.

“It was the purpose of that levy to be able to obtain funds to support the education fund and the transfer tonight of the funds from the transportation to the education fund concludes that process,” Shaw said.

Police: Meth lab was set up in Plainfield Township forest preserve

PLAINFIELD TOWNSHIP – A man went for a walk in the woods Thursday and unintentionally found the remains of a meth lab.

Will County Sheriff’s spokeswoman Kathy Hoffmeyer said about 7 a.m. a man was walking in the Mather Woods Forest Preserve, 25032 W. Renwick Road in Plainfield Township, and noticed a wooden box off the trail.

“Thinking it was garbage, he went into the woods to retrieve it. The man then opened the box and discovered a Crock-Pot, coffee filters and other small cooking items,” Hoffmeyer said.

The Crock-Pot contained what appeared to be remnants of methamphetamine. Sheriff’s deputies, Plainfield firefighters and the Illinois State Police Methamphetamine Response Team were called.

19th-century Joliet home of Dr. William Dougall slated for demolition

By BOB OKON bokon@shawmedia.com JOLIET – The 19th century home of Dr. William Dougall, a historical figure in Joliet who commanded a black regiment in the Civil War, could be coming down this year.

The house is in disrepair with back taxes owed, and one city official said it would have been torn down five years ago but for its historic value and the hope that it could be preserved.

But the Joliet Historical Preservation Commission this week declined to give approval to the demolition, putting the matter off to its next meeting July 27.

“When you talk about a property that has historical significance like this one does, it’s kind of tough to approve it because others didn’t do what they were supposed to do,” Quinn Adamowski, a commission member, said Wednesday as the commission considered whether to give its approval to demolition. “What are the options other than demolition?”

Options depend on money, and so far no one has had the money to spend to restore the 14-room, Victorian house at 209 Union St. “As much as I hate saying it to you people in this room, it’s definitely an eyesore,” Alfredo Melesio, director of neighborhood services for Joliet, told the commission.

Dougall was a Joliet doctor who saw patients at the house, which he built in 1872. He had been the chief surgeon for the Illinois & Michigan Canal Division. Furniture and medical equipment from his office are on display at the Will County Historical Museum in Lockport.

Photographs of Dr. Dougall are part of a Civil War exhibit at the Joliet Area Historical Museum because of his service as captain of the Thirteen U.S. Colored Infantry during the Civil War. Dougall served the same military role as Capt. Robert Shaw, who was depicted in the movie “Glory,” about a black regiment fighting for the Union in the Civil War, said Greg Peerbolte, director of the Joliet Area Historical Museum.

“He’s significant,” Peerbolte said of Dougall. “At the time, they were called the colored regiments. The command-

Lawmakers, Rauner OK stopgap spending deal

By IVAN MORENO and JOHN O’CONNOR The Associated Press SPRINGFIELD – Illinois lawmakers approved a partial spending plan Thursday that would ensure schools stay open another year and give colleges and human service programs funding for six months, a rare bipartisan accomplishment but one that won’t end the yearlong gridlock on a full budget.

The Democratic-led House and Senate overwhelmingly passed the plan, and Republican Gov. Bruce Rauner signed it later Thursday, the last day of the fiscal year.

Democratic leaders and Rauner crafted the agreement after days of negotiations amid increased public pressure to avoid entering a second fiscal year without spending certainty. About a dozen Illinois newspapers used their front pages Wednesday to publish editorials demanding that the two sides strike a deal and stop the bickering that has led to layoffs at colleges and forced social service providers to close their doors or make cuts.

Before the 105-4 House vote, Democratic House Leader Barbara Flynn Currie acknowledged the plan doesn’t solve the state’s fiscal mess.

“It is meant to keep the lights on,” she said.

Illinois is the only state in the country without a full budget for this year.

In all, lawmakers are agreeing to spend $25 billion in state and federal funds for the current budget year, and another $50 billion for the upcoming fiscal year. Schools will get just over $11 billion to stay open for a full year.

The agreement also provides Chicago some relief on pension payments for teachers, an idea Rauner had resisted until Democratic lawmakers agreed to lower the amount they wanted.

But while schools and cash-strapped colleges and social service providers can breathe a sigh of relief, the partial spending plan also means both parties will face high-stakes elections in November to influence budget discussions in January when a new legislative session begins and money starts to run out.

Republican House Leader Jim Durkin said it would have been “atrocious” and likely spurred a public revolt if lawmakers finished another fiscal year without a budget. He noted that even with the compromise, the ongoing budget standoff between Rauner and Democrats who control the Legislature will be an election-year issue.

“Mark my word that it will be articulated in the fall by various entities,” he said.

For 18 months, Rauner has demand-

Illinois lawmakers debate legislation while on the House floor during session at the Illinois State Capitol on Thursday in Springfield. ed business-friendly, union-weakening laws as a condition for agreeing to a spending plan that would include a tax hike. Democrats say the governor’s initiatives would hurt middle-class families and have nothing to do with the budget.

The partial budget won’t solve that ideological divide.

While Rauner has not gotten his demands, he’s not giving up and said Thursday that November’s elections will determine whether his party has a greater voice to help him achieve what he wants.

“This election will largely determine that outcome,” he said.

Under the plan, schools are getting over $500 million more in state aid than they did last year. There will also be a $250 million “equity” grant to help schools with low-income students. Chicago would get $100 million of that.

Part of the deal includes passing legislation to allow Chicago to raise $250 million in property taxes to help with teacher pension payments. A companion proposal will have the state cover $215 million in future pension costs beginning in June, like it does for all other Illinois school districts, but only if lawmakers pass legislation to reform the overall pension system next year.

Democrats initially wanted $400 million for Chicago Public Schools, includ-

ing money to help make the city’s teacher pension payments. The emerging plan calls for a $673 million increase for human services programs, including $20 million to restore programs that Rauner suggested eliminating.

Local lawmakers react

Reaction after the vote from legislators representing districts in Will and Grundy counties ranged from relief to frustration.

State Sen. Pat McGuire, D-Joliet, said all 15 school districts in the 43rd Senate District will receive more funding than last year. Compared to the previous year, he said Joliet Public Schools District 86 will get $3 million more and Joliet Township High School District 204 will get $800,000 more.

A key point in making the deal happen, McGuire said, was that Rauner backed away from Turnaround Agenda reforms for the time being and focused solely on the budget. McGuire said in the coming months he will work to secure further funding for higher education schools and MAP grants.

State Rep. Mark Batinick, R-Plainfield, said the votes Thursday stopped creating more problems for Illinois and managed to solve a few of them. He said Illinois’ finances still remain uncertain going forward, however.

“It keeps us out of purgatory, but it keeps us in Hell,” Batinick said.

He hopes working groups that spearheaded negotiations in the last few weeks will continue to communicate through election season so that a balanced budget can be reached and pension reform can progress.

State Sen. Sue Rezin, R-Morris, called her “yes” vote to the highest investment in K-12 public schools in the state’s history one of the most important of her legislative career. Education will be funded at 100 percent for the first time in seven years and no school district would lose any funding, she said, adding the minority Republican Party was able to hold strong against a “bailout” of Chicago Public Schools pushed by the Democrats.

State Rep. Margo McDermed, R-Mokena, said in a statement that intense pressure from the public finally brought Democrat leadership to the negotiating table. She noted the plan does not count on enactment of a tax hike.

State Sen. Jennifer Bertino-Tarrant, D-Shorewood, said in a news release she is glad a bipartisan plan could be reached. Each school in her district – which includes all or parts of Joliet, Plainfield, Shorewood, Bolingbrook and Romeoville – will receive more money than last year.

Fire destroys sedan in Joliet

By BRIAN STANLEY bstanley@shawmedia.com JOLIET – A sedan was destroyed by a fire Thursday in a parking lot on Joliet’s West Side.

About 4 p.m. a white car occupied by a man and a woman was driving behind the Advanced Auto Parts store at Jefferson Street and Caterpillar Drive

when the vehicle began smoking.

It appeared the fire began in the engine area. The couple was able to get out and remove several items – including a case of Pabst Blue Ribbon beer – before flames engulfed the vehicle.

Firefighters arrived and extinguished the blaze within minutes while a police officer blocked part of the parking lot to incoming traffic.

BERLINSKY

JOLIET – A Milwaukee man was sentenced Thursday to 4 1⁄2 years in prison for raping a young girl in Crest Hill more than a decade ago.

Gilbert Perez-Salgado, 27, was staying with the victim’s family in 2004 when he repeatedly assaulted the then-8year-old girl.

“The defendant was Gilbert being housed and cared Perezfor by the victim’s par- Salgado ents. They took him in, and in exchange he raped their daughter with force on numerous occasions,” Judge Carla Alessio Policandriotes said.

The victim did not notify police until 2014, by which point Perez-Salgado had moved to Texas and then Wisconsin.

Though Perez-Salgado was 16 when the crime occurred, he was charged as an adult.

Will County Assistant State’s Attorney Mary Fillipitch said Perez-Salgado confessed when he was taken into custody, but “blamed the victim and said she was the aggressor.”

Perez-Salgado pleaded guilty in

March in exchange for a sexual abuse charge being dismissed and faced up to seven years in prison. He could’ve received probation, but was previously convicted of theft for stealing copper in Texas. He will have to register as a sex offender for life.

“I went from being a loving child to a person full of rage,” the now 19-year-old victim wrote in a statement. “My self-esteem was damaged by the abuse and to this day has never healed ... I have suffered socializing and at school. I envy others for having a normal life.”

Before being sentenced, Perez-Salgado apologized to the victim and his family, saying he wished he could take back what he’d done. But Fillipitch submitted to the judge a Facebook post Perez-Salgado wrote after pleading guilty that showed a lack of sympathy.

“Maybe I’ll go visit my all-time favorite family and destroy their lives like they destroyed mine,” he wrote, according to Alessio Policandriotes.

“This is not a grown man looking back on acts he committed as a juvenile with regret,” the judge said. “Who puts this ... on Facebook unless they don’t care how it affects people? These people took you into their home and even now in 2016 you have to insult them?”

Victor G. Dodig Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce president and CEO

The PrivateBank to be acquired by CIBC

By ANNA SCHIER aschier@shawmedia.com A Chicago-based bank with locations in the Joliet area will be acquired by a Canadian company.

The Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce announced Wednesday its plans to acquire PrivateBancorp Inc. and its subsidiary, The PrivateBank, a middle-market commercial bank based in Chicago.

The PrivateBank has locations in Joliet, Channahon, Minooka and Homer Glen.

The acquisition’s transaction value is about $3.8 billion, according to a CIBC news release, which stated The PrivateBank has $17.7 billion in assets.

“We’re really excited,” The PrivateBank spokeswoman Amy Yuhn said.

The buy is CIBC’s first U.S. bank purchase, Yuhn said, adding that the effect of the acquisition on local clients won’t be immediate, but after the deal closes clients will have access to better resources. No branch closures are anticipated.

“Our team has built a premier commercial and private banking business,”

said Larry Richman, president and CEO of PrivateBancorp, in the news release.

“We believe this transaction allows us to not only continue our success but to achieve even more as our clients benefit from CIBC’s financial strength, and our employees become part of a respected North American organization that shares our values and is strategically positioned for long-term growth.

After the buy – expected to close in the first quarter of 2017 – is complete, Richman will keep his titles with PrivateBancorp and will join CIBC’s Executive Committee and head CIBC’s U.S.

Region. PrivateBancorp will remain headquartered in Chicago.

Purchasing The PrivateBank will allow CIBC to offer U.S. banking services to its Canadian clients and to clients of Atlantic Trust, a U.S. wealth management firm CIBC acquired about two years ago.

“We were attracted to PrivateBancorp for the quality of its management team and its client-first culture, and look forward to PrivateBancorp’s continued growth with CIBC’s financial backing,” CIBC President and CEO Victor G. Dodig said in the news release.

When you talk about a property that has historical significance like this one does, it’s kind of tough to approve [demolition] because others didn’t do what they were supposed to do.

• HISTORY

Continued from page 3 Dougall’s house is part of the Joliet East Side Historic District, which is on the National Register of Historic Places.

History and money

Historical significance and capital investment, unfortunately, don’t always match up. Melesio pointed out the problem at the Historic Preservation Commission meeting.

“Something we’ve been dancing around all evening,” he said, “is we need better capitalized investors in historic districts. How do we do that?”

The Illinois Historic Preservation Agency has given its approval to demolition because of the house’s condition.

The house now is owned by the Christ Temple Church of the Apostolic Faith, which acquired it when it was already in disrepair. The church had hoped to use it for community services but has been unable to fix it up.

“It’s costly,” Pastor J.E. Moore said Thursday. “We tried to start restoring it with some of our people. It’s a slow

Quinn Adamowski Joliet Historical Preservation Commission member process.”

Moore said the church paid about $30,000 for the house, making monthly payments. One vision was to make it available for the homeless.

“I would like to see it repaired,” Moore said. “For the church at this point, it’s going to be a burden for us to have it repaired.”

At the same time the city seeks to demolish the house, it is scheduled to go on auction in September for more than $20,000 in back taxes.

on banks and other owners that allow properties to fall into disrepair.

The foreclosure process, however, has not yet been completed on the McFarland house, Melesio said. The city expects the house to be back on the market once the bank gets control, he said.

In the meantime, he said, city officials have been watching the place and cutting away shrubs that have overgrown to the point that they are block-

ing the view for motorists. They even found a door open recently and secured it, he said.

But, Melesio said stiff fines against property owners could just aggravate the problem of troubled properties, especially when owners are struggling to fund repairs.

“The fines you’re talking about will encourage people to walk away from the property,” he told Grady.

Broader problem

The predicament of the Dougall house is part of a wider problem in the city, said Michael Grady, another member of the Historic Preservation Commission. Grady pointed to a three-story mansion at 903 Western Ave. built in 1898 by Patrick “Packey” McFarland, a professional boxer of some fame in the early 1900s.

The house has gone into foreclosure, has not been lived in for a year, and is beginning to deteriorate, Grady said.

“It’s a sin that we let this one get this far down the pike,” Grady said, arguing that the city should impose stiff fines

An automatic standby generator is a back up electrical system that operates whether you are home or away.

Within seconds of an outage, it automatically supplies power directly to your home’s electrical circuit breaker box. After utility power returns, the generator shuts itself off and waits for the next outage. It operates on natural gas or liquid propane gas and it sits outside just like a central air conditioning unit.

HAROLD E. CARROLL Born: Sept. 21, 1932 Died: June 28, 2016

Harold E. “Gene” Carroll, age 83, of Shorewood, passed away peacefully at Joliet Area Community Hospice Home on June 28, 2016, surrounded by his loving family.

Gene was the oldest of three children born in Amboy, IL to Harold and Georgia (Longman) Carroll on Sept.

21, 1932. He was married to Frances Morrissey on Sept. 3, 1956, at St. Patrick Church in Amboy.

Gene was a graduate of Amboy High School and attended Marquette University in Wisconsin before he enlisted in the U.S. Army.

Sergeant First Class Carroll received the Bronze Star for meritorious service in Korea.

After returning home from the service, Gene went to work with his father and uncle at Friendly Motors in Amboy. He also attended General Motors Institute in Flint, Michigan.

Soon after, he began a distinguished career at State Farm and held numerous auto claims positions that spanned nearly 40 years.

Gene was a member of Holy Family Parish in Shorewood. Before this, he was an active member of St. Andrew the Apostle Catholic Church in Romeoville where he served as school board president for several years as well as being a member of various organizations in the church. Additionally, he served on the Romeoville Recreation and the Mosquito Abatement Boards. Gene was especially proud of his 60-year membership in the

American Legion. Gene and Frances continued their involvement in their nine children’s Catholic education through St. Andrew’s School, Joliet Catholic, St. Francis Academy and Joliet Catholic Academy with Jubilation being one of their favorite fundraising events.

The most important things in Gene’s life were love of God, love of his wife and family, and love of his country. He instilled in all of his family the beautiful legacy of holiday traditions such as cooking and baking which he so dearly loved. Gene enjoyed many family gatherings at Dry Gulch, a cabin in the family for over 45 years in Amboy. He was a die-hard Cub fan and eternally hopeful that his favorite baseball team would make it to the World Series. Gene was an avid fisherman and enjoyed traveling to Leech Lake, MN with his wife and family. He took great pride in his garden and beautification of his home. During his retirement years, he loved spending time with his wife and enjoying the activities and achievements of his children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren. Up to his final moments, his wife, children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren were at his side.

Gene was preceded in death by his parents, Georgia and Harold Carroll; niece, Tracy Mihm; son-in-law, Steven Prehn and numerous beloved relatives. He is survived by his wife of 60 years, Frances; nine children, Stephanie (Mark) Mastrogiovanni of Naperville; Kathleen Carroll of Shorewood; Ann (Steven/deceased) Prehn of Shorewood; Susan (John) Harrison of Shorewood; Michael (Gayle) Carroll of Bakersfield, CA; Mary (Brett) Dyche of Ottawa, IL; Patrick (Valarie) Carroll of Minooka; Jennifer (Michael) Jones of Joliet; Mark (Andrea) Carroll of North Aurora; and special foster child, Renee Ravenot.

In addition, Gene is survived by 24 grandchildren: Adam (Joanna) Mastrogiovanni, Melissa (Zach) Dyrda; Kelly (Thomas) White, Patrick and Christopher Prehn; Grant and Meghan Harrison; Allison (Matt) Butin, Eric and Sean Carroll; Justin, Elizabeth, Katherine, Zachary and Natalie Dyche; Jake Pesevento, Collin Fleming, Ella and Mia Carroll; Ryan and Geena Jones; Jack, Samuel and William Carroll. Also survived by six great-grandchildren: Mikayla Pamal, Katie Mastrogiovanni, Lucas Dyrda; Kiersten, Charlotte and Maura White.

Gene also is survived by his loving brother, Donald (Lee) Carroll of Genoa; and beloved sister, Nancy (Dr.Martin) Mihm of Sarasota, FL. He will be fondly remembered by his many Carroll/Dickinson/Morrissey relatives and numerous friends.

Special acknowledgments are noted for Gene’s devoted caregivers and compassionate staff from Presence St. Joseph Hospital in Joliet, Alden Estates of Naperville, Advantage Home Health, and Joliet Area Community Hospice Home.

Visitation will be 7:30 p.m. Wednesday, July 6, 2016, from 3 to 8 p.m. with rosary, at Mihm-Jones Funeral Home, 303 E. Main St., Amboy. Mass of Christian Burial will be held at 11 a.m. Thursday, July 7, 2016, at St. Patrick Catholic Church, 32 N. Jones Avenue, Amboy, Illinois, with the Rev. Timothy Draper officiating.

Visitation also will be in the church from 9 to 11 a.m. before the Mass. Burial will follow at St. Patrick Cemetery with full military honors by the Amboy American Legion in Amboy.

Gene was a very proud husband, father and grandfather. His presence and love of life left a profound impact on those who knew and loved him. He will be dearly missed but will live forever in all of our hearts.

Memorials in Gene’s memory will be established by the family. Condolences may be sent online at www.thejonesfh.com.

Love Always, Carole

The ASSOCIATED PRESS

The Associated Press NEW YORK – Alvin Toffler, a guru of the post-industrial age whose million-selling “Future Shock” and other books anticipated the disruptions and transformations brought about by the rise of digital technology, has died.

He was 87.

He died late Monday in his sleep at his home in the Bel Air neighborhood of Los Angeles, said Yvonne Merkel, a spokeswoman for his Reston, Virginia-based consulting firm, Toffler Associates.

One of the world’s most famous “futurists,” Toffler was far from alone in seeing the economy shift from manufacturing and mass production to a computerized and information-based model. But few were more effective at popularizing the concept, predicting the effects and assuring the public that the traumatic upheavals of modern times were part of a larger and more hopeful story.

“Future Shock,” a term he first used in a 1965 magazine article, was how Toffler defined the growing feeling of anxiety brought on by the sense that life was changing at a bewildering and ever-accelerating pace. His book combined an understanding tone and page-turning urgency as he diagnosed contemporary trends and headlines, from war protests to the rising divorce rate, as symptoms of a historical cycle overturning every facet of life.

“We must search out totally new ways to anchor ourselves, for all the old roots – religion, nation, community, family, or profession – are now shaking under the hurricane impact of the accelerative thrust,” he wrote.

Toffler offered a wide range of predictions and prescriptions, some more accurate than others. He forecast “a new frontier spirit” that could well lead to underwater communities, “artificial cities beneath the waves,” and also anticipated the founding of space colonies – a concept that fascinated Toffler admirer Newt Gingrich.

NEW YORK – Rob Wasserman, a highly respected bass player and composer who performed and recorded with Lou Reed, Neil Young, Brian Wilson and many other musicians, has died.

He was 64.

Wasserman died Wednesday in Los Angeles, said Matt Busch, the manager for Wasserman’s close friend Bob Weir. Weir posted on his Facebook page that Wasserman, who had been diagnosed with cancer, had “lost his struggle.”

“I can still hear the sound of his bow playing those strings unamplified and pure,” wrote Weir, the longtime Grateful Dead member who with Wasserman founded the band RatDog in the mid-1990s. “It’s one of the most glorious sounds I’ve ever heard, and the music and warmth he gave us will live on in the hearts of everyone he touched.”

A lifelong Californian and former

student of the San Francisco Conservatory of Music, Wasserman played standup bass and drew upon jazz, classical and rock influences.

Over the past 35 years, he established himself as a top sideman and a recording artist in his own right.

Starting in 1983, he issued a trilogy of albums with titles derived from the number of players on each track: “Solo,” “Duets” and “Trios.” The first album was named Downbeat magazine’s record of the year. “Duets,” recorded everywhere from London to Texas and featuring Reed, Aaron Neville and Rickie Lee Jones, was nominated for three Grammys and brought singer Bobby McFerrin a Grammy win for male jazz vocalist.

Wasserman also played on albums

by Reed, Elvis Costello, Van Morrison and the David Grisman Quintet. In 2011, he organized the Woody Guthrie tribute album “Note of Hope,” with Pete Seeger, Jackson Browne and Ani DiFranco, among the artists.

Starting July 17, the department will more vigorously enforce a requirement for all new applicants to register with the Illinois Employment Service and upload a résumé to the website IllinoisJobLink. com.

The department said in a news release it will help the unemployed get access to help including free job searches, recruiting, job matches, hiring fairs and workshops.

Galena soldier’s Purple Heart to be returned to family

GALENA – A Purple Heart earned by a Galena man nearly a century ago will be returned to his family.

The nonprofit Purple Hearts Reunited on Friday will present the medal belonging to Pvt. Harrison Boyd Virtue to his greatniece.

Virtue was born in Galena – 160 miles northwest of Chicago – in 1888. He enlisted in the U.S. Army infantry in 1918.

He was in France when he was injured by a German-launched mustard-gas attack.

He inhaled more fumes the next day and spent months recovering.

Virtue ran a moving company in Lynwood, California, after the war. He was presented with a Purple Heart in May 1941. He died in May 1961.

A member of Purple Hearts Reunited’s Valor Rescue Team procured the medal from an online memorabilia dealer.

Obama legacy: Immigration stands as most glaring failure

By KATHLEEN HENNESSEY The Associated Press WASHINGTON – Hours after the Supreme Court sent his immigration policy into legal limbo, President Barack Obama huddled around a long conference table in the Roosevelt Room with disappointed activists. The president looked out at familiar faces, some teary. It had been a long and tough fight, Obama said, and he had taken some beatings – even from supporters who “whupped on me good.”

He believed his policies would prevail, according to participants in the meeting, but said it was now up to voters and the next president to take up the baton.

And with that, Obama delivered his version of a concession speech on a fight that has frustrated him like few others, roiled the campaign to replace him and is certain to test his successor.

When Obama leaves office in January, immigration overhaul will stand as the most glaring failure in his 7½-year effort to enact a vision of social change. Despite two campaigns full of promises and multiple strategies, Obama imposed only incremental, largely temporary changes on the immigration system. He leaves behind an outdated and overwhelmed system, with some 11 million people living in the U.S. illegally.

Behind that failure, Obama’s legacy will be judged by a sometimes contradictory mix of policies – some aimed at bringing immigrants “out of the shadows,” others at removing them from the U.S. He will be remembered for protecting 730,000 young people, a generation of so-called Dreamers, who were brought to the U.S. illegally as children. Advocates and allies will credit him with embracing a newly aggressive assertion of executive power that, despite the court deadlock and political opposition, remains a legal pathway for the next president. And he will go down

AP file photo

President Barack Obama speaks June 23 in the White House briefing room on the Supreme Court decision on immigration. as a leader who consistently defended the importance of immigrants in American life, as anti-immigrant sentiment swelled up in parts of the U.S. and abroad.

“Immigration is not something to fear,” Obama said last week. “We don’t have to wall ourselves off from those who may not look like us right now or pray like we do, or have a different last name.”

“What makes us Americans,” he said, “is our shared commitment to an ideal that all of us are created equal, all of us have a chance to make of our lives what we will.”

But Obama also will be remembered as a president who prioritized other issues, missing perhaps the best chance to pass sweeping legislation and only reluctantly adjusting his strategy in the face of firm opposition.

And his administration aggressively enforced current laws, deporting more than 2.4 million people. The total is nearly as many as his two predecessors combined.

“His strategy early on was to prove his enforcement bona fides,” said Janet Murguia, president of the National Council of La Raza, an immigration advocacy group, who once labeled Obama the “deporter-in-chief.”

“He was facing an unprecedented, highly personalized opposition from Congress,” she said. “We fault him, I believe correctly, for failing to

recognize soon enough this intransigence by Congress and failing to use his authority sooner.”

Evaluating Obama’s record is a matter of tallying two columns. One is the number of people he protected from removal. The other is the number deported.

The Supreme Court went a long way last week toward tipping the ledger toward the latter. With its 4-4 tie, it thwarted Obama’s last chance to shield up to 4 million people from deportation. The decision left in place an injunction freezing his 2014 executive action, which expanded his protection of Dreamers and temporarily protected some parents of people with legal status.

The deadlock, resulting from a Republican blockade against Obama’s Supreme Court nominee, left the constitutionality of the action unsettled. But it had a significant impact on Obama’s legacy.

“If the Supreme Court had ruled in his favor, he’d probably be remembered as the person who helped to protect half of the undocumented population in the country, which probably would have been a turning point toward reform sooner rather than later,” said Frank Sharry, founder of the immigration reform group America’s Voice. Instead, he said Obama will be most remembered for his administration’s “record number of deportations.”

SPRINGFIELD – As soon as the Brits voted to depart from the European Union, I began listening for the first rumblings of discontent in Illinois.

You know what I’m talking about: Should Chicago and the rest of the state part ways?

There are plenty of downstaters who would just as soon see Chicago depart the Land of Lincoln.

And hey, I know more than a few Chicagoans who view Downstate as a parasite leaching away a great city’s life blood.

In case you are wondering, I’m using a political scientist definition of downstate – not a geographer’s. Downstate in a political sense is anyplace in Illinois that is not part of Chicago or its suburbs.

Even northern Illinois communities like Rockford, Ottawa, Kankakee and Freeport are considered “downstate.”

The deep-seeded political animosity has been around for more than a century. And while some political commentators have written off downstate antipathy toward Chicago as being racial in nature, I disagree.

The political divide long predates the great migration of southern blacks to northern industrial cities such as Chicago.

The divide is more cultural than racial.

When someone in Southern Illinois thinks of coal, it’s a source of jobs.

For Chicagoans, it’s a source of pollution.

For many downstaters guns represent a source of recreation. For many Chicagoans they are viewed as a source of danger.

And let’s be honest. Chicago has a long history not only of political corruption but of flexing a unified political muscle.

Downstaters are many fine things.

But politically united they are not.

For decades they have complained about getting wacked on their collective political noggins by their neighbors to the north.

And downstate voters have come to resent the political successes Chicago lawmakers have scored in Springfield along with a certain arrogance that has accompanied it.

Folks in Springfield are still grumbling about Rod Blagojevich and Pat

THE FIRST

AMENDMENT

VIEWS Scott Reeder Quinn refusing to live in Springfield.

They viewed it as a snub, which it was.

By the way, these intrastate rivalries are hardly unique to Illinois.

When I was reporter in Nevada, the same animosity could be detected between Las Vegas and the rest of the state.

When I spoke to the Alaska Press Club a decade ago, reporters were complaining that their then unknown governor, Sarah Palin, was spending too much time in Anchorage and snubbing Juneau, the state capital.

For decades I’ve seen politicians stir up Illinois regional rivalries for their own political gain.

I’m disappointed that Gov. Bruce Rauner, who I generally agree with on policy issues, is doing the same thing.

Rauner has been tromping around downstate telling audiences that he doesn’t want their hard-earned tax dollars to get taxed away and sent to the “Chicago Political Machine.”

I agree we should not pour more tax dollars into that sump hole without first getting reform.

But exasperating the state’s long simmering cultural and geographic animosities isn’t going to make for a better state.

And might I add, you don’t get any more “downstate” than me.

I grew on a hog farm near Galesburg. I drive a pickup. I like guns.

And I’m uncomfortable in traffic.

But that doesn’t mean I hate Chicago.

When Congress made Illinois a state in 1818, it was for better or worse.

We’re stuck with each other.

It may be a bad marriage, but it is a marriage nonetheless.

Rather than pointing fingers, we should be uniting behind solving the state’s staggering problems: a massive debt, a moribund economy and political culture that resists reform.

OUR VIEW

Fireworks safety must be priority Does the name Jason Pierre-Paul mean anything to you?

Given the Fourth of July is Monday, it should.

Every year, you see warnings across the country about fireworks safety. We’re writing this to do the same. But this year, there’s a fresh reminder of why it’s so important.

Pierre-Paul is a starting defensive end for the New York Giants. He played last season with his right hand taped up like a club.

The reason? He nearly blew off his entire hand while lighting fireworks at a party during the 2015 Fourth of July holiday. More than 10 hand surgeries later, he’s missing all or part of three fingers and has needed multiple skin grafts on his palm.

We can’t think of a more visible reminder to leave fireworks to the professionals this weekend.

Have a good time this Fourth of July, but be safe. Here are some tips from the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission for individuals who plan to use fireworks this holiday season: • Never allow young children to play with or ignite fireworks.

• Avoid buying fireworks that are packaged in brown paper because

this is often a sign the fireworks were made for professional displays and could pose a danger to consumers.

• Always have an adult supervise fireworks activities. Young children suffer injuries from sparklers. Sparklers burn at temperatures of about 2,000 degrees – hot enough to melt some metals.

• Never place any part of your body directly over a fireworks device when lighting the fuse. Back up to a safe distance immediately after lighting fireworks.

• Never try to re-light or pick up fireworks that have not ignited fully.

• Never point or throw fireworks at another person.

• Keep a bucket of water or a garden hose handy in case of fire or other mishap.

• Light fireworks one at a time, then move back quickly.

• Never carry fireworks in a pocket or shoot them off in metal or glass containers.

• After fireworks finish burning, douse the spent device with plenty of water from a bucket or hose before discarding it to prevent a trash fire.

• Make sure fireworks are legal in your area before buying or using them.

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

Minooka’s Jonny Butler drives to the basket Wednesday at the 31st annual Morris Boys Summer Shootout at Morris High School.

EXPECTATIONS FOR MORE

Minooka looks to build off the success of special season

By TIM TIERNEY Shaw Media correspondent MORRIS – A Southwest Prairie Conference championship, a regional title for the first time since 1977 and an impressive 23-9 record.

The 2015-16 season was a special one for the Minooka boys basketball program. The Indians ended their tournament preparation for next season Thursday at the Morris Boys Shootout

with expectations of more good times to come.

“We definitely expect to continue the success we had,” Minooka coach Scott Tanaka said between games at the 32-team event. “We’ve won 15 or more games for five straight years.

Our kids have done a great job of building a winning tradition at Minooka.

“We are very excited about not only our freshman class, our sophomore class, but also the varsity guys we

have coming back.’’

Jon Butler and Keegan Graebner started for the team that advanced to the Class 4A Lockport Sectional semifinals before losing to Oswego.

The other three starters were seniors, including Jon’s brother, Joe, who is moving on to Illinois State on a baseball scholarship.

“We’re missing a lot of pieces, but we have good guys coming back,” Graebner said. “I think we can do something

special this season, as well.”

Preparation began this summer.

Minooka also participated in shootouts at Joliet West and Oswego East and played Monday nights at Joliet Central against several different teams.

Minooka was winless in five games at the Morris Shootout, but the Indians struggled to win last summer and still had an historic winter.

18 COLLEGE BASEBALL: COASTAL CAROLINA 4, ARIZONA 3

Champion Chanticleers: Coastal Carolina wins CWS

By ERIC OLSON The Associated Press

OMAHA, Neb. – Coastal Carolina coach Gary Gilmore often said he just wanted his team to reach the College World Series.

Until this week, he never imagined the Chanticleers would do so much more: They’re heading back to Conway, South Carolina, with the school’s first national championship in any sport.

The Chanticleers defeated Arizona, 4-3, in the deciding Game 3 of the College World Series finals Thursday, capitalizing on two errors on the same play to score four unearned runs in the sixth inning of a game delayed a day by bad weather.

It was worth the wait.

“Whenever I die, I’ll know this group of guys here, they willed themselves to be the national champion,” Gilmore said. “It was just meant to be, no doubt. If there is such a thing as a team of destiny, this group is it.”

Coastal Carolina (55-18) became the first team since Minnesota in 1956 to win the title in its first CWS appearance. Arizona (49-24) was trying for its second national title since 2012 but

Continued from page 17 “We’ve had some kids injured this summer that has hurt some of our growth in regards to our varsity team,” Tanaka said. “But with the summer leagues we’ve been at, we’ve been able to get a lot of young guys some significant varsity experience, where they’re going to benefit from it in the future.”

Graebner and his twin brother, Kyle, missed the summer high school season after a golf cart accident over the Memorial Day weekend.

Bruised ribs and a sore knee sidelined Keegan while Kyle suffered a broken finger and a back injury that kept him off the court. Early morning sessions of physical therapy have kept the two juniors busy, but watching their teammates play isn’t easy.

“It only makes you want to play more,” Kyle Graebner said. “I see little stuff I can fix in my game.”

Other players Tanaka expects to be big contributors include guard Antonio Milazzo, forward Adrian Paige and sophomore Adrian Gutierrez, a burly, 6-foot-5 transfer from Providence who played on the Celtics’ sophomore team as a freshman.

“We have a whole group of sophomores who have done a great job for us this summer,” Tanaka said. “They

came up just short in a season in which it was picked to finish ninth in the Pac12.

“Amazing season, and they’re a deserving champion,” first-year coach Jay Johnson said of the Chanticleers.

“We played as good as we possibly could this year, and they’re the best team we’ve played, in my opinion.”

Andrew Beckwith (15-1), the national leader in wins, went 52/3 innings after pitching two complete games and picked up his third victory of the CWS. He was named the Most Outstanding Player.

“He’s been coaching for 21 years, and he deserves every bit of it,” Beckwith said of Gilmore. “We got him to Omaha and we got him a national championship. The senior class, the hard work in the fall, the dedication of the guys who don’t play much. It doesn’t go unnoticed. It was a full team effort the whole College World Series, and we got it done.”

Alex Cunningham earned his first save, striking out Ryan Haug with a full-count fastball to end the game after Arizona had pulled within one in the bottom of the ninth. When Haug swung and missed, Cunningham turned to might not be with us during the varsity campaign, but they’re a huge part of our future. They’ve done a great job of being committed and dedicated the entire summer.”

Tanaka called the Graebners the “two most important guards” on the team. As such, they’ll play a big role in the Indians’ success.

“I don’t think anybody is going to predict us to win as many games, to get over 20,” Keegan Graebner said. “But I still have the same expectations as last year. You do as well as you can.”

“I think a lot of people will count us out this year,” Kyle Graebner said.

“But we have a new addition, Adrian Gutierrez, who will help us out a lot.

Jon (Butler) is returning and Keegan with his varsity experience. We’ll be all right.”

Jon Butler, an all-conference selection last season as a junior, knows one path to success.

“Defensively, because that was our main thing last year,” Butler said.

“Everyone new comes in and works, we can play the same defense we did last year.”

Tanaka realizes the 2016-17 Indians might not impress some observers.

“I think a lot of people are going to expect us to be a little down this year,” Tanaka said. “I actually think we’re going to be pretty darn good. I really do. The future looks really, really bright for us.”

Coastal Carolina players celebrate their 4-3 victory over Arizona on Thursday to win the championship after Game 3 of the NCAA College World Series baseball finals in Omaha, Neb. his dugout, beat his chest with his fist three times and saluted before flipping his glove away to start the celebration.

“The running joke is that in high school I lost the state championship three times in a row. I was not going to lose this one, I promise you that,” Cunningham said.

The championship was the first in a team sport in the 33-year history

of the Big South Conference. The Big South could savor the accomplishment for only about eight hours. The Chanticleers become members of the Sun Belt Conference on Friday.

“This program has been a lot better than people give it credit for,” Gilmore said. “They thought we played in a small conference and couldn’t get this done. This bunch wanted to prove everybody wrong.”

Arizona, which came into the day with only two errors in seven CWS games, saw second baseman Cody Ramer commit two on the same play in the sixth inning. He couldn’t get a handle on a grounder, allowing David Parrett to score from third. Then Ramer tried to get Michael Paez running from second to third, but he overthrew Kyle Lewis. That allowed Paez to come home. G.K. Young then launched a nodoubt homer into the seats above the right-field bullpen for a 4-0 lead.

“It’s the best feeling of my life,” Young said. “I’m trying not to cry right now. Just dreaming of that in my head since I was 10 years old, hitting a home run in the College World Series. I never would have thought it would come in the championship game.”

MORRIS SHOOTOUT: LOCKPORT

By DICK GOSS dgoss@shawmedia.com

• Friday, July 1, 2016

MORRIS – Lockport junior John Meyer is the reigning state champion in the shot put and also qualified for the state track and field meet in the discus.

He spent this week out of state, at a summer track meet.

However, in addition to his throwing endeavors, Meyer will be a key to the Porters’ success next basketball season. The thought that the 6-foot-5 Meyer is with them was not lost on coach Brett Hespell or the Porters as they competed this week in the 31st annual Morris Boys Shootout.

“Meyer is the strongest guy in the state,” senior lead guard Matt Smietanski said. “He gets in a zone, and all we have to do is keep giving it to him. I think of him as a senior, and I’m counting on him as if he was a senior.”

“Anytime you have a state champion in anything on your roster, it’s a good thing,” Hespell said. “John is a horse in the post. We had him up on the varsity last year. He’ll be a big contributor.”

Meyer’s absence underscores what the summer is like as the Porters begin the process of improving on last season’s 11-16 record, which included several tight losses.

“Summer is kind of tough because we have a lot of multi-sport guys, which I like,” said Hespell, a former Lockport assistant who is entering his second season as the head coach, having succeeded Lawrence Thompson Jr. “The adjustment I have made to the summer is trying to get our multisport guys here as often as possible.

We have so many who are involved in baseball, football, track and volleyball that it’s tough to make the schedule in such a way that we see as many of them as possible.”

When the Porters have a full deck, the inside trio of Meyer, Matt Medina and Christian Schultz, coupled with guards Smietanski and Patrick Cooper, an athletic senior football player, will be among the keys.

“Cooper is going to help us a lot, and [senior] Austin Ambrose didn’t play last year, but he’s very talented,” Smietanski said. “He has a great shot.”

“We have some nice pieces and some size,” Hespell said. “Schultz has come a long way. Unlike last year, when we didn’t have a lot of experience starting out, we have some now.

I like what I have seen so far this summer.”

Smietanski averaged 6.1 points, 3.9 rebounds and 1.2 steals last season.

Meyer averaged 4.7 points and 2.9 rebounds. Medina scored 3.0 points and Cooper 2.6.

“We had so many games where we lost by six points or less last year, and a lot of those were after Meyer broke his foot and went out,” Hespell said.

“But the kids played hard, and I know they will again. I think we’ll be pretty competitive.”

“I think we can turn our record around, at least,” Smietanski said.

“We had more depth last year, but we have a solid seven this year. Meyer, Medina and Schultz are all strong in there.

“I’m looking forward to playing with my class. Last year, it was mostly seniors.”

Hespell anticipates Smietanski running the show.

“Matt has had a good summer,” Hespell said. “He has to play the point for us. He won’t be allowed to commit fouls. He can’t come off the floor.”

“My role will be to run the offense and get everyone involved,” Smietanski said. “I know I’ll be playing against quickness. I’m very comfortable with that. I’ve been doing that forever.”

Lockport, of course, is the longest-running rival of the Joliet Township schools. But even though Central and West are moving from the SouthWest Suburban Blue to the Southwest Prairie Conference, the Porters have both on the schedule.

“We’re playing West early and Central in January, I believe,” Hespell said. “I wanted to keep playing both of them. Jeff [Corcorcan, the former Central coach] and I talked about keeping our series going before he stepped down.”

Bolingbrook, meanwhile, is a SouthWest Suburban foe that, as usual, has attracted Hespell’s attention.

“Joliet West and Bolingbrook are two heavyweights,” he said. “That’s what we want, to face them and aspire to get to their level. What’s the saying – the rising tide lifts all boats.”

Hespell said the Lockport tradition, the ability to compete against teams the caliber of Joliet West and Bolingbrook, is alive and well.

“We talk about Lockport’s tradition all the time,” he said. “The tradition is something we embrace.”

“I grew up watching Karrington Ward and Richaun Holmes play,” Smietanski said of two of the Porters’ former stars. “Lately, Lockport sports have been below average. We’re trying to start it back up with the basketball program.

“I think we can get it done.”

Slammers ready for big weekend series VIEWS Curt Herron What a difference a few weeks can make.

When the Joliet Slammers returned home June 3 following a 1-5 road trip, things weren’t looking particularly encouraging for the 8-11 squad.

Manager Jeff Isom’s team had just lost three straight series and was being outscored by a 6.5-4.7 margin and would have been five games under .500 if not for a forfeit win.

It was beginning to look like it might be another disappointing summer for the Slammers and their fans.

But when you play a 96-game schedule like teams in the Frontier League, 19 games is just under onefifth of the way through, so plenty of good things still can happen.

And that’s just what the Slammers have been experiencing the past few weeks.

Heading into Thursday’s series finale at River City, Joliet was on a 16-6 roll. The Slammers were looking to win back-to-back series, after winning five straight series and before splitting with Windy City.

The big turnaround gave Joliet a 24-17 record heading into Thursday’s contest, which was good for a twogame lead over Windy City for first place in the East Division.

While red-hot Southern Illinois has gone 28-12 and won 70 percent of its games to lead all Frontier League teams, the Slammers’ .585 winning percent is next-best.

So it’s understandable why there’s excitement in the air for the Slammers, who haven’t been in first place this late in a season since they won the league championship in 2011.

Things figure to be pretty interesting this weekend when the Slammers entertain Windy City in a three-game series between the top two teams in the East Division.

The ThunderBolts held the division lead for most of the season after getting off to a fast start, but heading into Thursday they had lost five straight and gone 3-8 in their last 11 games.

Windy City won five of the six games played between the teams in Crestwood, but the final six contests will be played at Silver Cross Field, with the last three Aug. 23-25.

And Silver Cross Field definitely seems to bring out the best in the Slammers. The squad is 12-5 at their home field after winning 10 of their last 12 contests.

ABOVE: The Joliet Slammers’ Charlie White watches his base hit against Lake Erie Sunday at Silver Cross Field in Joliet. BELOW: Slammers shortstop Alfredo Rodriguez fields a ground ball Sunday in a 3-2 win.

But the East Division is far from being a two-team race. Entering Thursday, Washington was just 2.5 games out of first while Schaumburg was only three games off the pace.

Winning the division is important, since those champions automatically make the four-team playoffs. The other two squads selected have the nextbest records, regardless of division.

The keys to the Slammers’ recent success? Their starting pitchers have definitely been more consistent of late, and that coupled with good defense is proving to be beneficial.

But the biggest thing Joliet has going for it is an offense that puts the team in a position to win on almost any night.

A good example of that was Wednesday, when the Slammers’ most reliable starter, Liam O’Sullivan, suffered through his worst outing. But despite giving up eight runs and 14 hits, they were able to collect nine runs on 15 hits.

Entering Thursday’s game, Joliet led the Frontier League in runs scored (224) and RBIs (212), ranked second in home runs (42) and was fourth in hits (376). Averaging nearly 5.5 runs a game is critical for a squad whose 4.84 ERA has gone down, but is still the second-highest.

The Slammers’ offense took a hit earlier this week when it was announced Boo Vazquez signed with the Royals’ organization. After getting three homers, including two grand slams and 10 RBIs last weekend, he surged to the league lead in both home runs (11) and RBIs (39).

While he still owned the top spots heading into Thursday, his RBI lead will soon fall to one of his former teammates. Marc Flores had five RBIs on Wednesday to give him 38, which is good for second, one RBI ahead of Carter Bell, who had owned the RBI lead for some time. Bell ranks fourth in the league in average with at .345 while Flores is tied for sixth in home runs with eight.

Even with Vazquez’s big bat suddenly gone, the Slammers appear to have enough offense throughout their lineup to give most Frontier League pitching staffs plenty of headaches.

A key for the squad will be how well their primary starters – O’Sullivan (five wins), Spencer Medick (four wins), Kaleb Ort (three wins) and Sean Townsley (three wins) – as well as the team’s bullpen, continues to show improvement.

With over 50 games still remaining a lot of things are still possible.

But from what we’ve seen so far, it’s hard to imagine why the Slammers wouldn’t be in the mix throughout the rest of the season.

NASCAR

By JENNA FRYER The Associated Press

• Friday, July 1, 2016

SONOMA, Calif. – Tony Stewart sat hunched over on the stairs inside his team transporter a year ago reflecting on the worst slump of his NASCAR career.

He had a migraine that day at Sonoma Raceway and spoke softly about his plight. Stewart didn’t know what to do to return to his glory days. He had no idea how to adapt to NASCAR’s rules package and seemed thoroughly defeated.

Asked that day about his confidence, he meekly admitted he was suffering.

“What’s that? I should Google that and see if I can find the meaning of that word,” Stewart said. “I don’t have any confidence.”

That shell of Stewart was nowhere to be found at Sonoma over the weekend, where Smoke was in vintage form.

He was cranky, candid and comical.

All the ingredients that make him competitive.

So when Denny Hamlin slipped by him in the seventh turn of the final lap in Sunday’s race on the road course where Stewart has been such a force for so many years, no one doubted this throwback version of the three-time champ would bullishly try to seize the lead and the win.

He made his move in tricky turn 11, where Hamlin overshot the corner and left enough room for Stewart to squeeze inside. Stewart then ran him up the track and into the wall as he charged toward the finish line and his first checkered flag in three years.

Stewart’s peers pumped their fists out their windows to applaud him.

Some ran to his car, or met him in victory lane. Crew members lined the wall to high-five him as he celebrated. It was a show of support not often seen in NASCAR, maybe not since the late Dale Earnhardt’s win in the 1998 Daytona 500.

Even Hamlin, who had just given the race away, went to congratulate his former teammate and one-time mentor.

“Tony has been ultra-fair to me.

He’s treated me really well my entire career,” Hamlin said. “It’s not like I gave him one by any means. He gave us an opportunity to move him, we did, and then we got it back.”

It was an important win for Stewart, who is retiring at the end of the year, and for NASCAR, which needs its biggest stars in the spotlight. The win will earn Stewart a spot in the championship field should he crack the top-30 in points, and he’s 32nd in the standings but only nine points back.

ABOVE: Tony Stewart celebrates after winning the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series auto race Sunday in Sonoma, Calif. BELOW: Tony Stewart speaks Sunday during an interview after winning the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series auto race.

Chase, however, is that it showed Stewart is still the same guy he was before three years of injuries, on-track mediocrity and personal perils. He struggled mightily after breaking his leg in a 2013 crash, then was emotionally devastated after accidentally striking and killing driver Kevin Ward during a New York sprint car race in 2014. He’s facing a civil suit filed by the driver’s family.

He announced last year 2016 would be his final season as a NASCAR driver, and there have been times some have wondered why he even bothered.

He broke his back a week before the season opened and missed the first eight races before returning for a farewell tour that had been kind of meh until the past two weeks.

But Stewart is finally comfortable again in his car and is adjusting to a first-year crew chief. His performance has picked up of late, and with it came the fiery side of Stewart that has been missing for so long. He was once again the closest thing to A.J. Foyt, his childhood hero, that this generation has ever seen.

No one thought there would ever be another Foyt, but Stewart proved them

wrong. But there won’t ever be another Stewart, not in this politically correct day and age of not upsetting the apple cart or the sponsors who pay the bills.

Playing it safe never appealed to Stewart, and he never backed down to corporate pressure. There’s been no fine big enough to make Stewart play Mr. Nice Guy, and NASCAR popped him for $35,000 days before his return

to the car this year for criticizing what he felt was a lack of attention to a safety issue.

His anger at Sonoma all weekend seemed centered on driver etiquette and the lack of a garage police chief to teach younger drivers the code.

That’s the way Stewart learned, and he doesn’t understand why current drivers don’t follow the same rules. In a pre-race interview with Fox, he derisively said with Jeff Gordon’s retirement last year and his coming up fast, there was no one with enough, ahem, courage to keep the new generation in check.

Stewart is right. He’s a dying breed, a throwback to the golden era, a bull in the china shop who should be revered as a rare gem.

His win Sunday proved he’s still got something left for this final ride, and hopefully he will enjoy it and give the fans something to cheer. After that, he will leave a void that NASCAR will never be able to fill. Not with someone like Smoke.

22 SLAMMERS 7, RASCALS 4

MLB

Slammers capture another series SUBMITTED REPORTS

O’FALLON, Mo. – Seven series won and one split since the start of June.

That streak has resulted in a 17-6 run which has pushed the 2517 Joliet Slammers to a season-best eight games over .500 after they captured a 7-4 Frontier League victory Thursday at River City.

Joliet also took its biggest lead atop the East Division standings after moving three games ahead of Windy City heading into a weekend series against the ThunderBolts at Silver Cross Field.

The Slammers took a 1-0 lead in the second but the Rascals (2020) scored single runs in the next two frames to go up 2-1. However,

Joliet used a three-run fourth to move back in front for good.

Spencer Medick (5-0) just missed getting the complete-game win. He allowed four runs and 11 hits while striking out six in 82/3 innings. Kevin Simmons recorded the final out to collect the save.

In the second inning, Carter Bell (3 for 4, two RBIs) hit a solo homer, his fifth of the year, to give his team the early lead. With his two RBI, Bell moved back into a tie for the Frontier League lead with 39 runs driven in with former teammate Boo Vazquez.

Two innings later, Bell got things started with a two-out double and Marc Flores was hit by a pitch before Jake Gronsky (2 for 4, three RBI) made it a 4-2 contest

when he smacked his fourth homer of the year off of losing pitcher Zeb Sneed.

Joliet took a 5-2 lead in the eighth when Rock Shoulders drew a two-out walk, moved to second on a wild pitch and came home on a single by Bell.

The Slammers added two more insurance runs in the ninth as Gronsky singled and scored on a single by Casey Fletcher. After Phil Bates singled and Charlie White walked, Alfredo Rodriguez singled in Fletcher to give the visitors a 7-2 lead.

River City, which scored twice in the ninth inning, received two hits each from Alexi Colon, Mike Jurgella and Robby Enslen (two RBIs).

METS 4, CUBS 3

Mets rally, hold off Cubs to stop skid in NLCS rematch

By MIKE FITZPATRICK The Associated Press NEW YORK – Yoenis Cespedes socked a colossal home run, Jeurys Familia pitched out of a huge jam in the ninth inning and rookie replacement Brandon Nimmo keyed a three-run rally in the seventh that sent the New York Mets past the Cubs, 4-3, on Thursday night in their first meeting since last year’s NL Championship Series.

The Cubs put runners on second and third with no outs against Familia, who got two strikeouts and a bases-loaded popup for his 27th save, most in the majors. He screamed and pumped his arms repeatedly after Javier Baez popped up to end it.

Baez’s throwing error at second base allowed Nimmo to score the go-ahead run, and the Mets overcame a 3-0 deficit to stop their fourgame slide. New York, which swept

the Cubs last October to reach the World Series, had lost nine straight regular-season games to the Cubs dating to August 2014.

Both banged-up teams came in depleted by injuries as they began a four-game series, the start of an 11game homestand for the Mets that marks their longest of the season and takes them all the way into the All-Star break.

Kris Bryant’s two-run homer and Baez’s solo shot off rookie Steven Matz gave the major leaguebest Cubs a 3-0 lead before a scuffling Mets lineup finally pushed back.

Cespedes launched a solo drive off John Lackey in the sixth that soared into the third deck in left field, two or three rows deep. It was thought to be the first home run to reach the third deck at Citi Field, which opened in 2009.

It wasn’t unfamiliar territory to Cespedes, however. He sent sever-

al shots up there three years ago – while winning the All-Star Home Run Derby.

Travis d’Arnaud singled with one out in the seventh, chasing Lackey. Joel Peralta (0-1) walked slumping pinch-hitter Alejandro De Aza before Nimmo, starting for injured outfielder Curtis Granderson, singled on the ninth pitch of a gritty at-bat for his first career RBI. The throw to third allowed Nimmo to reach second, and the Mets had two runners in scoring position. With the Cubs playing their infield in, Neil Walker hit a chopper toward the middle against reliever Pedro Strop. Figuring he had no play at the plate, Baez threw to third in an attempt to get Nimmo.

But the wide throw ticked off Bryant’s glove and rolled into foul territory, letting Nimmo cross the plate with a big smile on his face.

Erik Goeddel (1-0) struck out two in 12/3 hitless innings for the win.

CHICAGO – J.B. Shuck’s two-out single scored the go-ahead run in the eighth inning Thursday, Todd Frazier hit his 23rd home run and the White Sox beat the Minnesota Twins, 6-5.

Fernando Abad (1-2) got the first two batters in the eight before consecutive walks. Shuck’s career high-tying third hit of the game scored Avisail Garcia from second.

Nate Jones (4-2) allowed a hit while getting four outs and David Robertson worked around a single in the ninth for his 21st save in 23 tries as the Sox won their third straight series for the first time this season.

Tim Anderson added three hits and Matt Davidson had an RBI single in his Sox debut before leaving with a broken right foot.

Brian Dozier homered and drove in two runs and Eduardo Nunez had RBI singles in the sixth and seventh innings as the Twins rallied from a 5-2 deficit to tie it.

Sox starter Carlos Rodon retired the first 11 batters before giving up consecutive home runs to Robbie Grossman and Dozier. Rodon’s day was over after Dozier’s RBI single with one out in

the sixth. He allowed four runs and five hits.

Frazier, who entered the day one homer behind major league leader Mark Trumbo of Baltimore, pulled a changeup from Tommy Milone into the bullpen to lead off the second inning.

It was the 14th consecutive solo homer by the Sox, one shy of the team record set in 1965.

Milone didn’t get out of the fourth for a second straight start. The lefty was charged with five runs and nine hits while getting 10 outs. He also served up the first walk to the free-swinging Anderson in his 86th big league plate appearance.

The Twins fell to 1-8 against the Sox, with Minnesota manager Paul Molitor acknowledging his lineup was “a little strange.”

Joe Mauer had the day off against a lefty, Grossman moved to DH, Danny Santana was in left for his first start in four days and hot catcher Kurt Suzuki batted sixth.

Dozier extended his hitting streak to 12 games and his team record streak of games with an extra-base hit to 11.

Sox trainer’s room: LF Melky Cabrera (sprained right wrist) missed his second straight game. He’s expected to sit out at least one more day.

PASSING THE TORCH OF WISDOM

Presentation will dramatize relationship between Adams and Jefferson KNOW MORE

By DENISE M. BARAN–UNLAND dunland@shawmedia.com LEMONT – Because of John Adams’ influence, Thomas Jefferson became the primary author of the Declaration of Independence.

Yet these two political friends became political enemies, only to reconcile in their golden years through a series of letters, said the Rev. Thomas Koys, pastor of St. James Sag Bridge Catholic Church.

Koys says today’s political foes could benefit from reading these letters.

“Perhaps there’s some wisdom from their time that could be applied to our time,” Koys said.

In that spirit, Koys wrote, “The Adams/Jefferson Letters,” a 90-minute historical presentation he adapted from actual letters between Adams and Jefferson.

The St. James Historical Society will host it July 10 at the church.

Koys will portray Adams. Brookelyn Skrezyna, 17, a member of the St. James youth group, will portray Abigail Adams. Jack Zabilka, 16, also a member of the youth group, will narrate.

Phil Lauricella, a professional actor who has appeared on A&E and the History Channel, will portray Jefferson.

Koys said St. James is an appropriate place to showcase history.

“Faith has a lot of light in it,” Koys said. “Our nation is in trouble and it needs light in order to steer a course for the future. And some of that light can be found in history.”

Skrezyna, who has acted since second grade with the Little Flower Dance and Theatre Troupe of Homer Glen, said much of the drama will be shown as Adams, Jefferson and Abigail write letters – and she gets to speak in a British accent.

“It’s a good way to know more about the history of America,” she said. “It’s going to be a really nice production.”

Like Skrezyna, Zabilka has been

TRIVIA

According to a news release from St. James Historical Society at St. James Sag Bridge Catholic Church, Phil Lauricella, who will portray Thomas Jefferson, has more than 25 years of experience in the field of historical interpreting and more than 20 years of experience in formal classroom presentations.

Stage and screen credits include consultant work with the Emmy Award-winning Magic Door Theater production of “The Hanukkah Soldier.” Lauricella also appeared in the A&E production of “Betrayed: Custer at Little Big Horn,” and was the featured historian on the History Channel’s March 1999 presentation of “Quantrill.”

IF YOU GO WHAT: “The Adams/Jefferson Letters” WHEN: 3 p.m. July 10 WHERE: St. James Historical Society at St. James Sag Bridge Catholic Church, 10600 Archer Ave., Lemont COST: A free-will offering will be taken up for the Sag Hall renovation project.

Hockman said he is working on a book with a friend. Jellovitz said she loves to do watercolor and weaving.

Lincoln Elementary School art teacher Lisa Worsley said participation in the PTA Reflections program was voluntary and the students created their works outside of school.

Artwork by Plainfield students recognized at the state level

PLAINFIELD – Artwork by two Lincoln Elementary School students was recognized at the state level in the National PTA Reflections art program.

Drawings by third-grader Cayden Hockman and fifth-grader Morgen Jellovitz were displayed at the “Spotlight” Event at Millikan University in Decatur on April 30.

It is the first time Lincoln has earned such recognition in its eight years of participating in the program.

The National PTA Reflections program encourages children in all grades to create an original work on a common theme in any medium. This year’s theme was “Let Your Imagination Fly.” Hockman titled his drawing “Comical Randomness” and Jellovitz named her work “Tropical Destination.”

Jellovitz’s piece reflects her desire to live somewhere tropical, such as Hawaii, where she could see volcanoes and the ocean.

Hockman’s drawing illustrates that

mercury, such as tilapia, catfish or cod.

• Do give peanut products. This is a real turnaround. For years, doctors told parents not to give peanut products until children were 2 to 3 years old. The fear was if children were exposed to peanuts at too early an age, they would develop an allergy to peanuts later in life.

But a recent study showed giving peanut products early in life – between 4 and 11 months – actually can prevent peanut allergy.

Talk to your baby’s doctor before giving peanut products if there is a family history of peanut allergy or if your baby might be at higher risk of food allergies for another reason. And don’t give whole peanuts. They can get caught in the baby’s windpipe. Instead, products with ground peanuts – such as peanut paste – are what to use.

Another recent study suggests the lesson learned with peanuts also might apply for other foods to which kids develop allergies: eggs, cow’s milk, sesame nuts and oil, whitefish and wheat. Early exposure to these foods may lower the risk of allergies to them later on.

Every baby is different, and there are circumstances that might change your pediatrician’s advice for your child. Be sure to talk to your doctor to get the best advice for you and your child.

FUN & GAMES | The Herald-News / TheHerald-News.com

Dear Dr. K: I thought I knew what solid foods to give my baby, and when to give them. But the recommendations seem to change constantly. What do I need to know?

Dear Reader: To make sure I had the most current information, I spoke to my colleague Dr. Claire McCarthy, a primary care pediatrician at Harvard-affiliated Boston Children’s Hospital.

She said most dietary advice has remained the same. For example, wait until your baby is at least 4 months old before starting solids, and introduce one new food at a time.

But research recently has led to three big changes: • Don’t give rice cereal. For many youngsters, their first foray into solid food was a spoonful of rice cereal. Pediatricians used to recommend it as a go-to starting food. But then the Consumer Products Safety Commission raised concern about the amount of arsenic in rice and rice products. (The rice plant is very good at pulling arsenic out of the soil.)

Arsenic can cause many problems, including an increased risk of cancer.

The commission’s report said babies who get two servings of rice cereal a day could double their cancer risk over a lifetime.

Until we know more, pass on the rice cereal. Opt for oatmeal or other types of baby cereal instead.

• Make fish part of your child’s diet. Fish is full of important nutrients. A study from Sweden showed children who ate fish just twice a month during infancy had a 25 percent lower risk of allergies.

The researchers followed the babies until they were 12 years old, and that reduction in risk was still there.

Stick to fish that tends to be lower in

Dear Abby: DEAR ABBY I’m concerned about a photo Jeanne my uncle posted Phillips to Facebook. It features my two female cousins, ages 6 and 2, shirtless.

I know no harm was intended in posting the photo, as they are both adorable girls.

However, I find it inappropriate that the 6-year-old – who is going into first grade – was shirtless in the photo. Now that it is on the internet, it easily could be seen by a pedophile.

How do I express my concern to my uncle about this without coming off like I am trying to parent for him? I’m only 17 and don’t want to overstep my boundaries, but as a caring family member, I am concerned.

– Niece In Colorado Dear Niece: Because you are nervous about approaching your uncle about this, consider discussing your concerns with the children’s mother.

If your uncle is a single parent, then mention it to your own parents and, if they agree with you, ask them to mention to your uncle his semi-nude pictures on the web may endanger his daughters.

P.S. Your uncle should be made aware he can customize his account settings and make his profile private. That way, only family and selected close friends will be able to see his timeline.

Dear Abby: My neighbor is taking care of her grandchildren. She seems responsible, and the courts have allowed her to be their foster mother.

Her own children not only steal, but also are physically abusive. The court ordered the mother of the children (my neighbor’s daughter) to have no contact with them.

Their father is in prison.

I am friendly with this neighbor and her grandchildren. I wish I had a way to tell her her constant shouting and screaming at the children is unhealthy.

How can I help this family and these little ones? Should I just come out and say what’s on my mind – yelling at them undermines their self-esteem and does no good whatsoever? – Kind Neighbor In Michigan Dear Kind Neighbor: Have a chat with your neighbor about it, if you can manage it without coming across as judgmental (i.e., accusing her of “undermining their self-esteem”).

When you do, tell her you know she is carrying a lot of responsibility on her shoulders and she might be yelling because she’s stressed. Then offer to watch the grandchildren for her once or twice a month, so she can have some quiet time for herself. If you do, you would be doing her and her grandchildren a great favor.

Several top bridge experts have been successful traders in the stock and options markets. They understand that the market is volatile, but if a small investment eventually gives a large return, a few paltry losses along the way are no big deal.

How is that relevant in this deal?

South is in four spades. West leads the club jack. East takes dummy’s queen with his ace and shifts to the heart queen. How should the play proceed from there?

Although South had only 19 highcard points, his hand was well worth a two-club opening. If his partner had a 3-3-3-4 Yarborough, South was a favorite to make four spades, and his hand had some defensive tricks outside of its long suit.

North’s two-no-trump rebid promised some points, typically 4-7, with no long suit to show. With a very bad hand, he would have rebid three clubs as a double negative.

South’s immediate reaction was to win with the heart ace and cash his two top trumps in the hope that the queen would drop. But luckily he paused to consider his other options.

Here, if he had played trumps from the top, he would have lost one trick in each suit because he could not have reached the dummy to cash its club winner.

Instead, South made a small investment in safety. After taking the second trick with his heart ace, he led a low spade toward the dummy.

West won with his queen, cashed the heart king, and switched to a diamond, but declarer took that trick, played a low spade to dummy’s 10, and discarded his diamond loser on the club king.
