Rialto board, VenuWorks negotiating long-term deal

By MIKE MALLORY

mmallory@shawmedia.com JOLIET – The page is about to turn on the next chapter of the Rialto Square Theatre.

On Wednesday, the board of the historic theater in downtown Joliet approved an interim management contract with VenuWorks that will cost the Rialto $1 per month for four months. With a six-page transition list in tow, the Iowa-based company will begin Sept. 1 a hands-on assessment of all facets of the theater.

Both VenuWorks and the Rialto Board agreed a week was not enough time to negotiate a multi-year deal. VenuWorks founder and President Steve Peters said Thursday that a typical contract in a situation like this is a five-year deal, with an option to renew for another five years after the initial agreement concludes.

In the next four months, VenuWorks intends to invest about $50,000 of its own money in the Rialto just by placing staff and resources in Joliet, Peters said. There are plans to invest $350,000 for food and beverage equipment as well.

Rialto employees will become VenuWorks employees, though roles and titles could change. Peters called current employees vital to success.

“You don’t just call up central casting and get a new bunch,” he noted.

They also will be seeking new ideas so the theater can reach higher and do better, Peters said, and seek ways to partner with

downtown businesses and restaurants.

Most area residents have a Rialto story, he added, which means they will be engaged in the process.

Peter asked residents to have realistic expectations for the changes and the amount of time it takes to implement them.

Still, the interim contract is being viewed by both parties as the first step in a new direction, one that will allow the Rialto to “turn the corner.”

The Rialto board has received a lot of criticism since November 2014 during a controversy over a new marquee that was abandoned and earlier this year over cashflow problems leading to the departure of former general manager Randy Green.

But Rialto Board Chairman Dan Vera said he believes the community can get behind the new management, and the future will be bright with support from area residents, volunteers, employees and other principals.

“We’ve made that turn,” he said Thursday. “We’re moving forward.”

Moving forward

There has been constructive criticism throughout the process of choosing a third-party manager.

In July, Joliet Mayor Bob O’Dekirk and the City Council discussed the idea of buying the Rialto, saying that it could at least control its business model. At that time, O’Dekirk was glad to hear the Rialto Board was considering a third-party management service.

Then, earlier this month, O’Dekirk said proposals by VenuWorks and second-place finisher Pinnacle Venue Services weren’t good deals because while the management companies collected a profit, the Rialto was forecast to lose money.

Both companies presented tentative budgets that would increase shows and revenues each year, thus annually decreasing losses.

When asked Thursday whether it’s realistic to expect the Rialto to be profitable, O’Dekirk said the more important question is, how can it continue to lose money. He said that wasn’t answered by the third-party management proposals, adding that the theater’s debt and lawsuits against it continue to grow.

The city has been clear that it will treat the Rialto like any other business if it were to request assistance from the city, the mayor said, and he did not rule out subsidies.

Peters, during a presentation to the Rialto Board, presented a schedule for reducing the Rialto’s subsidy from the city, which was $600,000 this year, to $125,000 in three years, although he stressed, “These aren’t guarantees.” O’Dekirk said Thursday that he was glad to see a proposed Rialto budget with less city money.

Joliet City Councilman Pat Mudron, the council’s liaison to the Rialto, said it will be difficult for the Rialto to function without city subsidies. Mudron commended Peters,

CELEBRATING 50 YEARS

Will County Health Department program has screened more than 1 million children

By MIKE MALLORY

mmallory@shawmedia.com JOLIET – The Will County Health Department has given vision and hearing screenings for 50 years.

Actually, it’s closer to 60 years, but documentation only goes back 50 years, Will County Health Department’s Exec-

utive Director Susan Olenek said.

During that past 50 years, technicians have screened more than 1 million children throughout Will County as part of its school screening program.

In the 1990s, the department screened between 55,000 and 65,000 kids a year.

See SCREENINGS, page 4

Chicken-N-Spice lease up in 2022 JJC plans to acquire property for City Center campus redevelopment

By FELIX SARVER

fsarver@shawmedia.com JOLIET – News of Joliet Junior College moving forward with the process to acquire the property Chicken-NSpice sits on came as a surprise for the restaurant’s owner.

It also was a big shock for many customers, who asked on social media where the restaurant would relocate in the event JJC acquires the property, which sits next to the college’s City Center campus building.

Lety Torres, Chicken-N-Spice store manager, said that when the news hit Aug. 13, a Saturday, the response was overwhelming. By the next evening, the restaurant was out of chicken chunks.

“We never run out of chicken chunks,” she said.

The good news for worried Chicken-N-Spice fans is that its lease on the property, owned by the Roberts family, isn’t up until 2022. Ken Roberts, a member of the family, declined to comment on the deal.

JJC spokeswoman Kelly Rohder wrote in an email that the college plans to acquire the property with every intention of honoring the restaurant’s current lease agreement. She has said JJC does not yet have a finalized timeline on acquisition of the property.

But the question for Pat Reimer, owner of Chicken-N-Spice, is where the restaurant will move once the lease is up. The restaurant has been a downtown fixture and first opened in 1979. “[JJC] have the power. They do have power and what will become of us?

Is the city going to help us relocate?”

Reimer asked.

Reimer said she wants to keep the restaurant downtown.

“I think we’ve shown our loyalty to the city. I think that now in our time of duress, it would be awesome if somebody would step up to that and

• SCREENINGS

Continued from page 3 In the 2010s, numbers have dropped as low as 13,000.

The decrease is largely because of the many area school districts that have taken on the responsibility of vision and hearing screening, Olenek said. Those schools’ nurses now have the necessary training to do so.

say, ‘Yeah, we want to keep Chicken-NSpice in town,’ ” she said.

Rohder wrote that JJC offered, along with Steve Jones, Joliet’s deputy city manager and economic development director, to help connect Chicken-NSpice to any relocation opportunities.

Mayor Bob O’Dekirk said the city would love to keep the restaurant downtown as it is a staple of the area and he had no doubt the elected officials in the future would like to work with a great partner such as ChickenN-Spice.

Discussion of JJC’s interest in acquiring the property took place May 12 between the Reimers, Roberts family members, Jones, JJC Interim President Judy Mitchell and Board Chairman Robert Wunderlich, Rohder wrote.

JJC has been interested in developing the surrounding site of the City Center campus building – slated to

open January 2017 – to create more parking for students and develop a pedestrian mall for site beautification.

Reimer said she was surprised when she read in The Herald-News that the JJC board on Aug. 9 approved moving forward with the acquisition process of the property.

“We absolutely did not even have a hint of anything that was going on,” she said.

Torres said she would have liked to have attended the Aug. 9 board meeting if she had known about it.

Reimer said it wasn’t until after the news came out that Mitchell contacted her and said JJC was not going to “throw [the restaurant] out” and college officials wanted to continue being good neighbors and provide support.

Rohder wrote that on June 16, Mitchell let the Reimers know appraisal of the property had been scheduled,

so they were aware the process was moving forward.

Reimer said she knew about the appraisals as they were discussed at the May meeting, but she couldn’t remember being contacted about it.

News of the acquisition has left employees of Chicken-N-Spice concerned.

Torres, who has been at Chicken-NSpice for 15 years, said the restaurant hires a lot of college and high school students. She said there’s a good employee longevity rate because it accommodates students’ schedules. Reimer said many of them are encouraged to attend JJC. She also said Reimer has done much for the community through donations and supporting the local high schools and churches.

“This is our livelihood, and so what are people going to do to help us?” Torres asked.

The department’s program remains strong, however, much like the 50-yearold vision test machine that was on display Friday at an open house at the department, 501 Ella Ave. in Joliet.

“They’re like tanks,” chief vision and hearing technician Hope Cathelyn said. “They last forever.”

The department’s three technicians still only use a main set of three vision and hearing tests. If a newer one breaks down, they can still use one of the older

models.

“It’s the simplest, cheapest and often the first thing to check if a kid is having trouble in school,” said Cathelyn, who has been at the department since 1993.

Cathelyn said that a lot of times, young children don’t know or can’t convey that they can’t see or hear something. Yet the department’s screenings detect children as young as 3 sometimes need glasses. Technicians also screen adults from Cornerstone and Trinity

Services. Last year WCHD vision and hearing technicians screened 13,000 children’s vision and referred more than 700 for further evaluation. They screened 17,000 children’s hearing and referred 108 for further evaluation.

Will County Executive Larry Walsh Sr. attended Friday’s celebration and tested out the equipment. He said he remembers being a kid and taking the vision test, with numbers and letters projected on the wall.

Singleton family seeking more time in parsonage

By ALLISON SELK

Shaw Media correspondent JOLIET – Forty-four years ago, the Rev. Isaac Singleton Sr., his bride, Pearlie, and family moved into the Mount Zion Baptist Church parsonage at 716 Fairlane Drive in Joliet.

Singleton and his wife served the church and community for 50 years, and when the couple’s health began to fail, their eldest daughter, Gloria Singleton-Hayes, moved in to care for her aged parents.

Singleton died in February 2011, and on April 3, 2016, Pearlie was buried next to her husband. The sole occupant of the parsonage was Singleton-Hayes, and the family was aware that after Pearlie passed, the home would be turned over to the church.

However, the family feels they have been given a short timeline to pack up 44 years of memorabilia, said Singleton-Hayes’ daughter, Chevez White.

“Three weeks after my grandmother’s death, the church told us we had until Aug. 31 to be out of the home.

We are not trying to stay in the home, but my mother is disabled and we need time to catalog and preserve the legacy of my grandparents,” White said.

“People don’t get those things named after them for no reason; their whole life was about this community.

Their legacy needs to be preserved.”

Chevez White

Granddaughter of the Rev. Isaac Singleton Sr. and Pearlie Singleton The family would like to have an additional six months to stay in the house. They noted the couple’s estate still is in probate, so they have assets to deal with as well.

White said her grandparents gave everything to the betterment of the community. Singleton marched with Martin Luther King Jr.; was involved in Rainbow/ Push Coalition; and served as a board member on the Will County Regional Board of Education, Joliet Regional Chamber of Commerce and the Joliet Township High School Foundation, to name a few. Singleton also had an elementary school, park and street named after him in Joliet.

“People don’t get those things named after them for no reason; their whole life was about this community,” White said. “Their legacy needs to be preserved.”

The house was never designed to be housing for the family without limitation, Mount Zion Baptist Church Senior Pastor the Rev. David Latimore said.

“We gave the family 30 days to grieve and then we told them they needed to vacate at the end of August,” he said.

Singleton-Hayes said she feels pressured and that Latimore has dishonored her parents by not allowing the family time to grieve and catalog her parent’s 44 years of life.

“I look through pictures and I found one of my dad wearing my mom’s wig.

We would be eating dinner or watching a movie and he would jump out with that wig on,” Singleton-Hayes said. “He was a busy person, but he always spent time with us, and causing a commotion we liked to call it.”

Latimore said that even though

the family has offered to pay to stay so they can organize their belongings, it would put the church in tax exempt violation.

“Because the parsonage is part of a tax exemption as church property, we can’t convert it into residential housing and jeopardize our tax exemption status with the city,” Latimore said.

White hired a lawyer and sent letters to Latimore to request more time, but she said the response has been no, even though Singleton-Hayes said at one point Latimore said that if she needed more time to let him know.

Due to the letters sent by the family’s lawyer, Latimore said he was limited in what he could say regarding the situation.

White said she has worked on buying a home for her and her mother, but funds are not available until late fall, so moving twice and paying for storage and a rental are too much of a financial burden.

The family planned a garage sale for Friday, Saturday and Sunday to help eliminate items, but they need help to preserve the historical documents and are asking for it. Those who might be able to assist in that manner are asked to email chevezwhite@ gmail.com.

Nearby residents overheard the shots and called police. Bennett was arrested the day after McGinn’s slaying, while Edwards was not charged until October 2013.

Bennett was charged with murder but last year pleaded guilty to robbery in exchange for testifying against Edwards.

Edwards was put on house arrest when DNA testing delayed his right to a speedy trial, which also resulted in Bennett’s transfer to home confinement.

Bennett was apparently violating those conditions on July 3 when he died while riding a motorcycle at Third Avenue and Richards Street in Joliet.

The driver of the Dodge Charger that was struck when Bennett went into the intersection, Loria Ware of Joliet, was charged with aggravated driving under the influence.

According to Neal, Edwards has also been leaving his house without authorization since his release from jail in December 2014.

JOLIET – A suspect in a 2012 murder outside a Joliet boxing gym remained hospitalized Friday while a special prosecutor is still seeking to have his bond revoked.

Kenneth G. Edwards, 48, has been hospitalized with pancreatitis since Aug. 19, Special Prosecutor Dave Neal said Friday. Another hearing has been scheduled for Kenneth G. Wednesday.

On Aug. 9, 2012, Sean Edwards D. McGinn arrived to meet Jermain Bennett at the KO Zone, a gym they co-owned at 218 E. Cass St. Police said McGinn had brought thousands of dollars to buy cocaine from Bennett, who instead planned to rob him.

Edwards, Bennett’s cousin, was waiting in the parking lot and shot McGinn twice while Bennett took the cash, according to investigators.

Police said that the drugs Bennett

Joliet, Lockport districts score slightly lower, higher on ACT exam

By FELIX SARVER

fsarver@shawmedia.com Joliet High School District 204 scored slightly lower on the ACT test compared with the state average while Lockport High School District 205 scored higher.

For the class of 2016, the ACT composite score for District 204 is 19.2 while the one for District 205 is 21.8. Statewide, the composite score is 20.8.

The ACT tests college readiness in students.

While ACT scores remained steady at District 205, it will be the last year the district will use ACT, said Brett Gould, assistant superintendent for curriculum and instruction.

“We’re already making a lot of shifts to the SAT,” he said.

A District 204 official was unable to be reached by Friday about the ACT scores.

The Illinois State Board of Education announced in July that all public high school juniors will take the SAT instead of the exam for PARCC, or the Partnership for Assessment of Readiness for College and Careers.

“The SAT is aligned with the Illinois Learning Standards and will continue to empower educators to measure college and career readiness,” Tony Smith, state superintendent of education, stated in a news release.

Students at Will County districts did not score high on PARCC exam, which is based on Common Core standards.

Statewide, only 33 percent of students met or exceeded expectations on the

“We do use this data and we do break it down and see where we can do better.”

Brett Gould

District 205 assistant superintendent for curriculum and instruction test.

Many district officials in the county said the PARCC was a challenging exam to administer and the exams covered materials and skills students didn’t learn yet.

The District 204 board in June approved a recommendation to continue with ACT testing and Superintendent Cheryl McCarthy has said students will be at a great advantage this school year by being tested with ACT and SAT exams.

Other districts in Will and Grundy counties saw record high ACT scores that were above the state average.

Students at Lincoln-Way District 210 scored its highest composite ACT score in its history and the highest among Plainfield, Minooka, Joliet and Lockport districts.

Gould said District 205 staff will prepare for the ACT by having the students do practice tests and will adjust daily lessons to help students score better on the exam.

“We do use this data and we do break it down and see where we can do better,” Gould said.

“I asked for it…

I GOT it!”

Police say Joliet man tried meeting Mokena boy for sex

By BRIAN STANLEY

bstanley@shawmedia.com MOKENA – A Joliet man was arrested Thursday after authorities alleged he tried to arrange sexual contact with a 14-year-old Mokena boy.

Mokena Police Chief Steven Vaccaro said a two-month investigation led to the arrest of Paul F. Hicks, 41.

Hicks, of the 700 block of North Raynor Paul F. Hicks Avenue in Joliet, is being held in the Will County jail on charges of indecent solicitation of a minor, grooming a minor for sexual purposes, traveling to meet a minor for sexual purposes, possession of child pornography, drug possession, unauthorized possession of a firearm and unauthorized possession of ammunition.

The victim and his father notified police after Hicks met the boy online and later visited his house, according to Vaccaro.

“The investigation showed he went over there to have sexual contact. We worked with the Will County State’s Attorney’s High-Tech Crimes Unit and obtained a search warrant Thursday,” Vaccaro said.

The search reportedly found child pornography had been downloaded to Hicks’ computer. Police also found a handgun and unprescribed medication in the residence, Vaccaro said.

Hicks does not have a firearm owner’s identification card.

According to Will County Court records, Hicks was arrested by Joliet police in May 2007 for “encouraging a minor to violate a city code,” but the case was not prosecuted. He also was held in the county jail for a week in April 2011 after being sought by Indiana authorities.

Third District Court of Appeals has reversed the ICC decision

support because of the substantial revenue the project will bring to the area. If the court’s ruling is not reversed, it will prevent the state’s realization of these benefits,” Detweiler said in the email.

“We hope that the ICC will continue to work within the court system to ensure these benefits are brought to Illinois.”

As proposed, the line would run 379 miles through Iowa, and 121 miles in Illinois before stopping in Grundy, according to court documents. The project would channel 3,500 megawatts of wind energy from Iowa to Illinois through a series of above-ground transmission lines.

RICL has proposed constructing a $300 million converter station in Grundy County – the end point for a 500-mile direct current energy transmission line where the energy could be converted into alternate current electricity and injected into the power grid, servicing areas throughout the Midwest and to the East Coast.

MORRIS – A transmission project is back in limbo after the state’s 3rd District Court of Appeals reversed an Illinois Commerce Commission order that would have allowed the Texas-based Rock Island Clean Line to construct, operate and maintain high-voltage electric transmission line across several counties in the state, including Grundy County.

In its Aug. 10 ruling, the appeals court reversed the commission’s order that had granted a certificate of public convenience and necessity to the Rock Island Clean Line, which wanted to build the transmission line from O’Brien County in northwest Iowa to Grundy County.

William Shay, lead attorney for appellant Illinois Landowners Alliance, said in a news release that the basis of the appellate court’s opinion is that RICL has no utility assets, customers or operations, nor does it possess the attributes of a public utility under the

Illinois Public Utilities Acts – which makes it ineligible to receive regulatory approval.

Hans Detweiler, vice president at Clean Line, said in an email that the 2014 decision by the ICC determined that the proposal “satisfied Illinois’ public use standard by promoting competition in the state’s electricity market, bringing clean energy to Illinois consumers, and lowering electricity prices by hundreds of millions of dollars.”

Detweiler said the appellate court’s decision “discounted the ICC’s statutory responsibilities, ignored the ICC’s determinations of fact, and incorrectly usurped the commission’s regulatory role. The court’s decision erroneously creates barriers to competition that would lead to higher electricity prices.”

Detweiler said RICL will promote substantial job creation and economic growth in Illinois. He said RICL has the support of businesses, labor organizations and environmental and consumer groups.

“Several of the project area counties and school districts have issued their

looking to cash in on our heritage for their own financial gain,” Mary Mauch, Illinois Landowners Alliance Executive Director, said in an email. “This legal decision to void RICL’s permit makes all that hard work worthwhile. As well, RICL’s foray into eminent domain for private gain has served to raise the public consciousness against these kinds of projects and unite communities to create strong opposition to them.”

In 2015, a group representing landowners affected by the proposed Rock Island Clean Line project in Illinois appealed an Illinois Commerce Commission decision approving the project.

The Illinois Landowners Alliance filed the appeal Feb. 17 in the 3rd District Appellate Court in Ottawa asking for a review of the ICC’s November decision allowing Rock Island Clean Line to construct and operate the transmission line and of its January denial of requests for rehearing, according to the petition to review.

Susan Sack, co-founder of Block RICL, said it’s been a long, dedicated fight.

“We feel strongly that they won’t appeal to the Supreme Court,” Sack said.

“Iowa and Illinois both have taken a very firm stand against them.”

JOLIET – A Lockport man has been sentenced to nine years in prison for beating his fiancée while wearing brass knuckles.

Robert Szymanski, 26, of the 1700 block of Hamilton, also looped his belt around the woman’s neck and choked her during the Jan. 16 attack, according to Robert a news release from Will Szymanski County State’s Attorney James Glasgow’s office.

Szymanski on June 22 entered a blind plea of guilty to domestic battery-related charges, and Associate Judge Edward Burmila on Friday handed down the nine-year

sentence. The defendant became enraged at his fiancée after drinking alcohol and taking Xanax for which he did not have a prescription, according to the news release. He choked her with his hands, and then punched her in the head and body while wearing brass knuckles. During the attack, Szymanski told her that she was his “property.”

She left the house and went to the emergency room after he fell asleep, then reported it to Lockport Police. She suffered a fractured hand and serious bruising about her neck, head and body.

Glasgow credited his Domestic Violence Prosecution Unit and prosecutor Katie Rabenda for securing the guilty plea.

Three Rivers Library District celebrates 40 years

By KRIS STADALSKY

Shaw Media correspondent CHANNAHON – Before the Three Rivers Public Library District was formed, the towns of Channahon and Minooka could borrow books only by mail from the Burr Oak Library. For a short time, there was also a bookmobile that made its way around the community.

Lifelong Minooka resident Jim Satorius remembers the bookmobile made a stop right in front of his home in River Knoll subdivision.

“People drove to it or walked to it,” he recalled.

When those early services ceased in 1974, Channahon and Minooka residents had no library services at all.

Satorius, whose family has been in education fields for more than 50 years, and whose wife, Ruth Satorius, is a librarian, joined with other residents to create an organization called the Friends of the Library. Their goal was to form a library district to serve the needs of the two communities.

They accomplished their goal in 1976 after getting enough votes to create the taxing district.

The first library board consisted mainly of people from Friends of the Library who were appointed by the

Historian Jim Gibbons presented “Bell-bottoms, Disco, and Richard Nixon: the 1970s,” a peek into the past.

state Legislature. Satorius became the board’s first president, a title he still holds today.

It was first called the Tri-County Public Library District and opened in a small building on the corner of Route 6 and Tryon Street.

Satorius describes is as “more of a shack than a building.”

But the communities now had books, records, art reproductions and sculptures, films, magazines, newspapers, and storytimes at their disposal. “ ... Suddenly a whole new world of information and entertainment opened up for the people of the

tri-county area,” Jennifer Lyons, circulation and communications coordinator for Three Rivers Public Library District, wrote in a news release.

Laurie Offerman, executive director of the library district since 2014, has vague memories of going to the small library with her mother as a young girl. She also remembers the bookmobile parked outside the grade school in Minooka.

In 1981 it was renamed Three Rivers Public Library District and a new facility opened in its current location on Channon Drive in Channahon.

When the Masonic Lodge building on Wabena Avenue became available in 1992, the library district opened the Minooka branch.

While times have changed, and technology has changed the way libraries operate and provide services, Three Rivers Public Library District is still serving the community 40 years after opening its doors in that first small building.

Library patrons can go online to get books from any of the 72 libraries in the PrairieCat consortium, Offerman said. They can get electronic books, audio books, online databases, books on CD and all kinds of different formats.

More information on programs and special events for the Three Rivers Library’s 40th anniversary celebration, and how to win prizes by posting your attendance at events on social media, can be found at at www.trpld.org.

Libraries have become more of a community gathering place, where local groups can meet, teens can gather and tutoring takes place.

“People still look to us for information and entertainment, but the manifestations have changed,” Offerman said.

The programs have also grown over the years and field trips have been added, such as a recent trip to the Lyric Opera in Chicago.

To celebrate the 40th anniversary, there will be programs for all ages, culminating with a ’70s music, live concert Sept. 10 on the lawn of the Channahon branch location. Residents are encouraged to dress in their favorite ’70s attire for a contest.

Light refreshments will be served.

“We look to the needs of the community,” Offerman said, “and we are evolving with it.”

THOMAS R. KILCOYNE Thomas R. Kilcoyne, age 52, entered into eternal life on Wednesday, Aug. 24, 2016, at Northwestern Memorial Hospital, Chicago.

Quote: “It’s hard to forget someone that gave you so much to remember.”

He will be remembered as a giving and loving husband, father, son, brother, uncle and friend.

Tom lived his life to the fullest. He was fun-loving and fearless. Words cannot describe him, for all that knew him and loved him; because Tommy was truly “one of a kind.” He was the kind of guy that could always make you laugh and never knowing what to expect next. Tom enjoyed the simple pleasures in life, good times, good friends and good music. He was a “tough guy” with a great big heart! He cherished the time spent creating those special moments in life with his wife, Kim, and son, Keith; where with them he made memories that will last forever. He will be forever in their hearts. He enjoyed spending time with his family and friends and was always ready to take on a new adventure. The crazier the better.

He loved to cook, but not the cleanup and was always ready to help plan the next family gathering. He had a love for hot rod cars and was a devoted NASCAR fan (regardless of Dale Jr. standings). He enjoyed gardening, camping and had a unique style of fishing, which usually meant jumping into the water! He enjoyed movies and watching football, baseball and game shows on TV.

Designer Sonia Rykiel, known for a relaxed style, dies at 86

By ANGELA CHARLTON The Associated Press

PARIS – Sonia Rykiel, a French designer dubbed the “queen of knitwear” whose relaxed sweaters in berry-colored stripes and eye-popping motifs helped liberate women from stuffy suits, has died. She was 86. President Francois Hollande’s office announced her death in a statement Thursday, praising her as “a pioneer” who “offered women freedom of movement.”

For the generation of women who came of age in the heady 1960s and ’70s, Rykiel, with her hallmark bright orange hair, came to symbolize the new era of freedom. She also penned several novels – including one about a dress and its various incarnations – and figured in director Robert Altman’s satirical 1994 look at the fashion industry, “Preta-Porter.”

Designers, fashionistas and French cultural figures offered tributes to her and her influence Thursday, including

on multilingual posts on her house’s Facebook page.

Rykiel got her start by designing knit maternity dresses for herself. She became a fixture of Paris’ fashion scene starting in 1968 when she opened her first ready-to-wear shop on the Left Bank at a time when student riots were challenging France’s bourgeoisie establishment. The designer’s empire grew to include menswear and children’s lines, as well as accessories, perfumes and home goods, sold in the label’s stores on four continents.

Her daughter, Nathalie Rykiel, who as a young woman used to model her mother’s garments on the catwalk, has long helped manage the fashion house.

The business was among France’s last major family-owned labels until it was sold to a Hong Kong investment fund in 2012.

Rykiel, whose maiden name was Flis, was born in Paris on May 25, 1930.

She married Sam Rykiel, the owner of a Paris boutique, and had Nathalie at 25.

The ASSOCIATED PRESS CHICAGO – NBA star Dwyane Wade’s cousin was an innocent bystander, police said, pushing her baby in a stroller near a Chicago school where she intended to register her children when she was fatally shot Friday.

Nykea Aldridge’s famous relative, who grew up in Chicago’s south suburbs, tweeted to his nearly 6 million followers about her death, saying Friday it was an “act of senseless gun violence” and posting Saturday morning that Chicago needs “more help& more hands on deck.” Wade ended both days of tweets with the hashtag “EnoughIsEnough.”

The 32-year-old mother of four recently relocated to an area on the city’s South Side, her family said. She was near the school, which is about a mile and a half southwest of the University of Chicago, when two males walked up and fired shots at a third man but hit Aldridge in the head and arm. She wasn’t the intended target, police said.

Police said Saturday afternoon that two “people of interest” were being

Report: Black men, boys shot most by Chicago police

CHICAGO – After threatening to sue, the Chicago Tribune has obtained data from the city’s police department that tracks every time an officer has opened fire in the city over the past six years. The vast majority of those hit were black men or boys.

There were 435 police shootings from 2010 through 2015, in which officers killed 92 people and wounded 170 others. In all, officers fired 2,623 bullets.

The newspaper’s findings show that about four out of every five people shot were African-American males. It found that about half of the officers involved were African-American or Hispanic and most of them had years of experience and were not rookies.

questioned by detectives but no one has been charged in the shooting. Authorities are investigating whether the encounter between the men was a robbery, possibly involving a driver from a ridesharing company, police spokesman Anthony Guglielmi said.

Chicago has been plagued by gun violence for years, especially in a few South and West Side neighborhoods.

This July alone, there were 65 homicides – the most that month since 2006.

The review also said the number of police shootings has declined over the period, from more than 100 in 2011 to 44 last year.

The city is making major changes to the department and various oversight bodies after the uproar over a 2014 shooting in which a white officer fired 16 bullets into a black teenager.

Video of that fatal shooting, which was released upon a judge’s order in November, contradicted officers’ accounts that the teen lunged at them threateningly with a knife. The officer who fired those shots has been charged with first-degree murder.

Most of the police shootings took place in South and West Side neighborhoods beset by gang violence and poverty. At least one of every five shootings involved plainclothes tactical officers charged with taking on gangs, the newspaper found.

Police union President Dean Angelo Sr. defended the department’s record against accusations of racial bias.

Wade, whose charitable organization, Wade’s World Foundation, does community outreach in the Chicago area, signed with the Bulls in July after 13 years with the Miami Heat. He and his mother, pastor Jolinda Wade, participated Thursday via satellite in a town hall meeting in Chicago on gun violence hosted by ESPN. “My cousin was killed today in Chicago. Another act of senseless gun violence. 4 kids lost their mom for NO REASON. Unreal. #EnoughIsEnough,” he tweeted Friday.

Wade also tweeted Saturday morning: “The city of Chicago is hurting.

We need more help& more hands on deck. Not for me and my family but for the future of our world. The YOUTH!” adding in a following tweet, “These young kids are screaming for help!!! #EnoughIsEnough.”

Outside the emergency room where Aldridge was pronounced dead, Jolinda Wade clutched her sister and spoke for the family as mourners stood in a circle holding hands and praying. She said she’d participated in the town hall meeting “never knowing that the next day we would be the ones that would

Court grappling with unions, free speech, inflatable rats

CHICAGO – Enormous rats are making their way through the federal court system. But they’re not wet-nosed, living rodents.

They’re rubber, inflatable ones.

Unions deploy such rat replicas outside businesses they have disputes with, and Chicago’s 7th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals this month addressed whether restricting their use violates free-speech rights.

A lower court sided with Grand Chute, Wisconsin, ruling safety and construction ordinances justified the town’s removal of a 15foot rat outside a car dealership.

Chicago’s higher court nixed that finding and returned the case for further litigation.

Appeals court Judge Richard Posner partially dissented. He called for a decisive finding that the town violated the union’s free-speech rights. He wrote some may find the blow-up rats “repulsive” but that they’re clearly “akin to a political poster,” so constitute protected speech.

actually be living and experiencing it.”

“We’re still going to try to help and empower people like the one who senselessly shot my niece in the head,” Jolinda Wade said. “We’re going to try to help these people to transform their minds and give them a different direction.”

It is not the first time Dwyane Wade’s family in Chicago has been affected by gun violence. His nephew, Darin Johnson, was shot twice in the leg in 2012 but recovered.

Chicago had recorded 381 homicides by the end of July, up 30 percent from the same period of 2015. Its murder rate is higher than the more populous cities of New York and Los Angeles.

Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump has spoken about the city’s violence, and tweeted about Aldridge’s death Saturday morning. He first posted, “Dwyane Wade’s cousin was just shot and killed walking her baby in Chicago. Just what I have been saying. African-Americans will VOTE TRUMP!,” and then tweeted, “My condolences to Dwyane Wade and his family, on the loss of Nykea Aldridge. They are in my thoughts and prayers.”

Northwest Indiana seeking to lure Chicago commuters

BEVERLY SHORES, Ind. – Indiana cities along Lake Michigan’s southern shore hope to lure more Chicago residents with revitalized downtowns and a new commuter train track.

The Chicago Tribune reported that officials received federal approval in May to hire engineers for preliminary plans to add a second track to the South Shore Line. Transportation officials hope the additions will slash the commute from Michigan City to Chicago to just one hour.

Making the commute easier is a top priority for Indiana officials. Right now, just one track runs between Gary and Michigan City.

“We’ve got two-way traffic on a one-way street,” said Michael Noland, CEO of the Northern Indiana Commuter Transportation District.

Officials hope that attractions such as the area’s beach access and low-key lifestyle will also

draw millennials into places such as Michigan City, Indiana.

New corn disease found in northern Illinois field

URBANA – University of Illinois researchers say a new type of corn disease has been found in northern Illinois.

The university said in a news release Friday that bacterial leaf streak was found in a field in DeKalb County.

Confirmation of the bacterial disease brings the number of states where it has been found to nine. Iowa, Minnesota and Kansas are among them.

Not much is known about bacterial leaf streak, including how damaging it may be or how to treat it.

Assistant Dean for Agriculture Suzanne Bissonnette said anyone who suspects they have found the disease in a field should send a sample to the U of I Plant Clinic to help researchers figure out how widely it has spread.

Scams, waste loom as charity millions given after Orlando

By JEFF DONN

The Associated Press The more than 430 fundraisers posted on the GoFundMe website after the mass shooting at a gay nightclub in Orlando have exposed weaknesses inherent in these popular do-it-yourself charity campaigns: waste, questionable intentions and little oversight.

The fundraisers – an average of more than four for each of the 49 killed and 53 wounded – include travelers asking for cash, a practitioner of ancient healing, a personal safety instructor who sells quick loaders for assault rifles, and even convicted identity impostors.

“There was a deluge,” said Holly Salmons, president of the Better Business Bureau for Central Florida. “It was almost impossible for us or anyone else to be able to vet.”

The crowdfunding sites operate outside traditional charitable circles and often beyond the reach of government regulation.

Appeals can be created in minutes by almost anyone and shared around the world.

The officially sanctioned Equality Florida campaign raised more than $7 million via GoFundMe, but $1.3 million more went to smaller appeals – mostly set up by people with little or no charity experience.

The Associated Press examined 30 campaigns chosen from throughout the lengthy list produced by a GoFundMe search for “Orlando shootings.” Within a month of the June 12 shootings, they had raised more than $265,000.

Half said donations would be used for legitimate-sounding purposes: to cover funeral, medical and other costs. Some campaign organizers were relatives of the dead or wounded.

A high school basketball coach raised $15,297 for the family of Akyra Murray, a star player who had just graduated before dying in the attack.

But most campaigns lacked key details, such as exactly what the donations would cover or even who was asking for them. Only nine of the 30 organizers agreed to interviews.

One man wanted money for travel costs to Orlando to shoot independent news video.

He hadn’t raised anything two mon ths later.

Another organizer raised just $25 for travel money to hold a community healing ceremony inspired by ancient shamanic rituals. She dropped that plan in favor of sending painted rocks with an inspiring word of support.

Jackson Yauck of Victoria, British Columbia, put up a lighthearted appeal to let the highest donor burn a pair of skimpy gold-colored shorts he wore to gay-pride events. He had created the appeal Jan. 1 on behalf of other charities; and when he tried to switch it to benefit the Orlando victims, GoFundMe froze his account for at least a week, he said.

He agreed to transfer the donations to Equality Florida, and GoFundMe let the appeal go forward.

Yauck said he knew all but one of his 11 donors personally and didn’t feel a need to tell them of the switch. “It was just for fun. If you look at the bigger picture, we raised $600 off a pair of underwear,” he said.

Several businesses asked for contributions.

One appeal raised $1,375 from 14 donors within two months to keep open a hair salon run by partners killed in the attack. A counseling center raised $150 to subsidize services to victims, but closed its campaign when it found grant money elsewhere. GoFundMe helps make refunds when contributions go unused.

Efe Atalay, of Clermont, Florida, raised $1,145 from 81 donors to buy security wands for nightclub entrances, but didn’t say which clubs and spoke vaguely of lobbying politicians to require such security measures. He didn’t respond to emails sent to his GoFundMe address.

Warning of ‘war’ on farmers, Trump seeks support in Iowa

By SCOTT BAUER and KEN THOMAS The Associated Press

DES MOINES, Iowa – Donald Trump warned Saturday of a “war on the American farmer,” telling a crowd in Iowa that rival Hillary Clinton “wants to shut down family farms” and implement anti-agricul-

ture policies.

Trump’s speech at the annual “Roast and Ride” fundraiser for Republican Sen. Joni Ernst came just hours after Clinton received her first national security briefing as the Democratic presidential nominee.

Trump skipped the 42-mile motorcycle ride that preceded the event

in a state where polls show a tight contest, a rare bright spot for Trump amid a sea of challenging battleground states. Joining him on stage were top Iowa Republicans – among them Ernst, Gov. Terry Branstad, Sen. Chuck Grassley and Rep. Steve King – in a rare show of support for a candidate who has struggled to unite

his party.

In a hat tip to Iowa’s agriculture industry, Trump renewed his commitment to continuing a requirement that all gasoline sold contain an ethanol-based additive, an issue important to corn growers. He also promised to cut taxes on family farms, which he called the “backbone” of the country.

NEAR THE STANDING ROCK SIOUX RESERVATION, N.D. – Native Americans from reservations hundreds of miles away from North Dakota have joined the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe’s growing protest against a $3.8 billion four-state oil pipeline that they say could disturb sacred sites and impact drinking water for 8,000 tribal members and millions farther downstream.

About 30 people have been arrested in recent weeks, and the company has temporarily stopped construction. A federal judge will rule before Sept. 9 on whether construction can be halted on the Dakota Access pipeline, which will pass through Iowa, Illinois, North Dakota and South Dakota.

Meet a few of the people camping out near the confluence of the Cannonball and Missouri Rivers in southern North Dakota: WAMBLI JOHNSON was supposed to begin third grade last week in northern Arizona’s Black Mesa, on the Navajo Nation. Instead, she rode horses, saw buffalo up close for the first time and made new friends from other tribes.

“This is school,” the soft-spoken 11-year-old who speaks Navajo as her first language said of her experience outside of the 2.3 million-acre reservation.

It was Wambli who persuaded her mother, Osh, to make the daylong drive and join members of nearly 100 tribes and other protesters from around the country after hearing about the protest through relatives and social media.

On Thursday, Wambli presented protest organizers with $150 she earned selling her homemade laundry detergent soap door-to-door in one of the poorest and most remote communities on the Navajo Nation, which spans parts of Arizona, New Mexico and Utah.

It took her nearly a month to raise the money, one $2 to $4 soap at a time. Her pitch: “I don’t want water to be poisoned,” she said.

It wasn’t a tough sell, said Wambli, whose own home has no running water and instead has to be hauled in, a chore

until the pipeline plan is killed.

“It’s a shame it has to be this way.”

Johnson said. “I’m tired. And I’m tired of the people fighting over this. I just want peace and this pipeline to go away.”

JON DON ILONE REED is no stranger to conflict. The 30-year-old member of the Cheyenne River Sioux Tribe said he answered the call of his country, joining the Army and taking part in a military offensive to drive the insurgents from the late dictator Saddam Hussein’s hometown of Tikrit, Iraq.

“Now I hear the call of my people,” Reed said of his decision to join the protest.

Imposing but polite, Reed wore a mixture of Army camouflage and traditional tribal dress and his chest bears the scars of a Sun Dance, a sacred – and once illegal – Lakota ceremony. Dancers pierce their bodies with sticks tethered to a tree by ropes. After days of dancing under the sun, the sticks are ripped from their flesh by pulling away from the tree. The dance is a symbol of sacrifice in hopes their creator will hear their prayers.

Reed said he wants the government and the Texas-based pipeline company to hear the pleas of protesters, and prays the protest will remain peaceful.

“I fought in Iraq,” he said. “Now I’m fighting for our children and our water.”

JOYE BRAUN, an organizer of the “spirit camp,” has been on site since April 1 – “when there was still snow on the ground.”

“Now we’re getting ready for winter again,” said Braun, a member of the Cheyenne River Sioux Tribe and an organizer with the Indigenous Environmental Network. “We’re not going anywhere.”

She also hopes the protests stay peaceful.

“We’re not against the police at all,” she said. “We’re not against the construction crews – we know they are just trying to make a living. But they are working for the wrong company.”

Braun said the issue is just as much about tribal rights as it is protecting the water and sacred sites. “It will not come through. Period.”

• RIALTO

Continued from page 2 though, for believing a business needs to stand on its own.

Mudron said City Council members would probably feel more comfortable backing shows if they see the theater is on its way to better days.

Mudron was part of the Rialto advisory committee that reviewed five third-party management proposals.

He said he thinks it’s a great partnership for the Rialto, citing VenuWorks’ ability to book shows in large quantities. Because it manages 37 venues, he said it can guarantee more shows to a booking agent by opening up its various venues to them.

James Roolf, president of First Midwest Bank’s Joliet Banking Center and a member of an ad hoc committee of area business leaders that formed earlier this year with an aim of supporting the Rialto, noted VenuWorks’ experience in managing other historic

theaters throughout the Midwest, and that the company manages real estate in some of its contracted properties.

Roolf calls the Rialto a complex situation as it is a theater that also has office space. About 63 percent of the Rialto’s real estate is currently rented out, Vera said. All facets of the operation will contribute to its overall profitability, but Roolf said bringing in a variety of shows is of utmost importance.

“My kids and their respective spouses go to different shows than my wife and I do,” Roolf said. “From baby boomers to millennials – you have to provide programming that appeals to all of them.”

The programming needs to do more than just appeal to age ranges, he said.

“I’m a believer that the programming needs to be diversified,” Roolf said. “For Hispanics, for African-Americans, for Asians, etc. That’s a challenge. Being all things to all people can be a challenge – but you have to take that challenge.”

Dear Mr. Berko: For many reasons, I think oil and gas is going to move up later this year and in 2017. We have $60,000 in our joint account to speculate with. We want to buy a portfolio of seven or eight oil and gas stocks that will yield at least a 9 percent dividend. We know this is speculative, but we think there’s a better chance of success if you pick the stocks versus our picking them. We can afford the risks, and we won’t hold you responsible if they don’t do well.

– TR, Buffalo, N.Y. Dear TR: I only recommend these

rank speculations to investors who can complete six of the following eight personal requirements. You must be able to gargle with battery acid, leap over tall buildings, chew Coke bottle glass, do push-ups on a bed of nails, travel faster than a speeding bullet, digest a Carolina Reaper, have open-heart surgery without anesthesia and place among the top five contestants in the Illinois State Fair hog calling contest. If you can do six of those, then the following picks were chosen just for you by Nigerian President Muhammadu Buhari, Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro, Brazilian President Dilma Rousseff and Goldman Sachs.

BP PLC (BP-$34), a $211 billion-rev-

TAKING STOCK Malcolm Berko enue integrated oil and gas company across the pond, provides its gas stations with fuel, gives businesses and homes energy for heat and light, and makes lubricants and petrochemicals used to make thousands of everyday plastic items. BP should earn $1.23 a share this year, and in 2017, with revenues of $255 billion, earnings could come in at $2.70 a share. The $2.40 dividend yields 7.3 percent and is sustainable, considering BP’s impressive cash flow.

Royal Dutch Shell (RDS-B-$53), a $250 billion integrated oil and gas company, has a mailing address in the Netherlands. It operates much the same as BP. Its $3.76 dividend, yielding 9.1 percent, is sustainable, considering expected 2017 revenues of $335 billion and a strong free cash flow.

EnLink Midstream Partners (ENLK$17.50), a $4.5 billion master limited partnership, provides midstream energy services – gathering, transmission, processing, fractionation and marketing to natural gas producers. The $1.56

distribution yields 9.2 percent. ENLK’s high-quality customer base augurs well for better revenues of $4.6 billion in 2017, and the distribution is stable.

Oneok Partners (OKS-$41.50) has raised its distribution yearly since 2005.

OKS is a $9 billion-revenue MLP that gathers, processes, stores and transports natural gas, and it should earn $2.35 a share this year. OKS expects revenues of $10.2 billion next year and earnings of $2.50 a share. This year’s $3.22 distribution yields 7.9 percent, and management expects to raise the distribution in 2017 to $3.34.

DCP Midstream Partners (DPM-$35) is a $1.8 billion-revenue MLP that owns a portfolio of midstream energy assets and has increased its distribution each year since 2006. This year’s distribution of $3.12 yields 9.1 percent. With expected 2017 revenues of $2.2 billion, the distribution should be increased to $3.20.

Martin Midstream Partners (MMLP$21) is an $896 million-revenue MLP that transports, stores and markets petroleum products and byproducts via 30 shore-based terminal facilities.

From 16 specialty terminals, MMLP refines, blends and packages products for producers and suppliers of petroleum byproducts. Revenues for 2017 are

expected to exceed $1 billion, and the current $3.25 distribution, yielding 15.6 percent, should be maintained.

Enbridge Energy Partners (EEP-$25) will report $4.3 billion in 2016 revenues, and its $2.33 distribution yields 9.48 percent. EEP owns and operates a diversified portfolio of crude oil and natural gas transportation systems. Next year, with projected revenues of $4.6 billion, EEP may increase the distribution to $2.41.

Finally, Energy Transfer Partners (ETP-$41.38) is a midstream and interstate transportation and storage company with more than 60,000 miles of pipeline. Impressive earnings are expected in 2017, and the $4.22 dividend yields 9.9 percent.

This eight-issue portfolio requires that you invest $7,000 in each and yields 8.9 percent. Each issue has significant free cash flow, and some will increase their dividends this year and next. If the above companies continue to improve efficiencies and if oil remains in today’s narrow range, each of the above companies could also see a higher stock price.

BUSINESS BRIEFS Joliet Township infant child care center earns gold circle of quality JOLIET – The Joliet Township Infant Childcare Center has retained the GOLD Circle of Quality designation from ExceleRate Illinois, the state’s quality rating and improvement system, for the 2016-17 school year.

ExceleRate Illinois is administered through the Illinois Network of Childcare Resource and Referral Agencies under joint direction of the Governor’s office of Early Childhood Development, the Illinois Department of Human Services and the Illinois State Board of Education.

The mission of the JTHS infant Childcare Center is to engage, support and maintain attendance of young parents during high school completion, strengthen their parenting skills and

knowledge of resources, support the healthy development and exploration of young children in a safe environment, and be a passionate model of best practices in the early childhood community.

Diageo donates backpacks and supplies to Joliet Central Key Club JOLIET – On Aug. 19, Diageo employees presented a donation of 25 backpacks with supplies to Joliet Central High School’s Key Club as the recipient of Diageo’s 2016 local community outreach project.

Tara Bowers, of Diageo’s Plainfield location, presented the gift to Principal Shad Hallihan, Key Club sponsor Linda Bowers and student volunteers Veronica Briceno, Tyree O’Large, Achante Freeman and Adolfo Rivas.

“Key Club’s mission is to help one child and one community at a time. As we begin this new school year, Key Club is honored to be chosen by Diageo to receive their community outreach project of donating 25 backpacks with supplies

to our students in need,” Bowers said.

“As Key Club’s sponsor, I am very happy to be able to have our club develop a community relationship with Diageo and to be able to help 25 students.”

Bowers, who grew up in Joliet, added: “During this back-to-school season, I am proud to give back to the community that raised me, and I’m fortunate to work in a great company that has the means to give back to those in need.”

OPINIONS OUR VIEW

Failed policies will remain

Every 10 years after the U.S. Census, an elite few in Illinois decide which congressional and legislative districts each voter is in.

It’s a rigged system that was exploited after the 2000 and 2010 Census by House Speaker Michael Madigan and his Democratic cronies to protect incumbents, punish political foes, eliminate competition so their party can stay in power, and basically select their own voters – which is the reverse of how things should work.

The Illinois Supreme Court last week allowed the redistricting process to remain rigged by effectively killing a voter-led attempt to change the way in which legislative district boundaries are drawn.

In a 4-3 vote, the state’s highest court ruled that a referendum seeking to take legislative mapmaking power away from top lawmakers and give it to an independent commission was unconstitutional.

And so business as usual continues in dysfunctional Illinois.

In a dissenting opinion, Justice Robert Thomas said the majority decision was “nothing less than the nullification of a critical component” of the constitution.

“In Illinois, as throughout the United States, there is a palpable sense of frustration by voters of every political affiliation that self-perpetuating institutions of government have excluded them from meaningful participation in the political process,” he wrote.

The Independent Maps coalition, which has been fighting for redistricting reform for years, collected about 563,000 signatures to get the measure on the November ballot. But an attorney with close ties to Madigan and other Democratic leaders filed a lawsuit to stop voters from having a say on the matter.

A Cook County judge determined the redistricting measure was unconstitutional, leading to an appeal to the Supreme Court. A similar effort in 2014 also was dismissed in court.

And, so, we are left with the status quo.

What has the status quo gotten us? When voters go to the polls Nov. 8, almost 60 percent of them won’t have a choice in their state representative race because 70 of 118 are uncontested. In the state Senate, 70 percent of the 40 races are uncontested.

That’s what Madigan and his cronies want.

It keeps them in power. It also keeps their failed policies, which have delivered Illinois to the financial brink, in place.

The system is rigged, and the state’s powerful elite intend to keep it that way.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR A new low

To the Editor: It is disturbing that NBC and Xfinity would show a picture of a nude statue of Donald Trump and print a story about it, then follow it with a story about the tragedy in Louisiana.

Both have sunk to a new low, but I shouldn’t be surprised since the liberal media has been running in the “muck” this whole election cycle. Why would anybody want to vote for a Democratic candidate for the highest office in the land that sinks this low to allow this kind of advertising to take place?

This country needs a lot of soulsearching and a lot of time spent in church.

Blessed to have YMCA in Joliet area

To the Editor: I would like to share some great news concerning a great, 100 percent caring, Joliet-area community organization. Friends, I recently received a flier in the mail from the Greater Joliet YMCA concerning

registration dates and various information for their fall programs.

I noted that on the bottom portion of this flier a statement read: “Everyone is welcome!” And this statement goes on to indicate that “no one is turned away due to inability to pay.”

Wow, what an awesome gesture by this absolutely wonderful organization. Not only does the Joliet Area YMCA offer a fantastic variety of youth and adult activities for all age groups, but it also finds a way to unselfishly assist all of those families having difficult financial times through its People Helping People Scholarship program.

We are truly blessed having this incredible family-focused organization in our greater Joliet community. Congrats, and a huge thank-you, to the entire Joliet Area YMCA staff.

Sincerely, David Marco Joliet

Candidate stances

To the Editor: The public deserves to know where the legislators stand on the

important votes of balancing the budget, funding the schools and pensions, expensive union contracts and taxing to run the state government.

It’s as if half the term is for vacations, as we all need to wait until after the elections to take the important votes. Well, the public deserves to know where the legislators stand so they can vote on the candidates in the upcoming elections.

The state’s finances are being run into the ground, the credit rating hovers above junk, pensions are under-funded by perhaps $100 billion, there are tens of billions of dollars in unpaid bills, and the leadership proclaims or indicates we can’t do anything until after the elections.

Where is the active management of the situation? How is it possible for the public to vote?

The constitution is being ignored, the Supreme Court is not acting and is being cut out of enforcing the constitutional requirement for a balanced budget while the unpaid bills pile up.

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.

Abby and Zoey are identical twins. Zoey is the one on the right (I think). younger by 15 minutes exactly, has a tiny bump on the left side of her forehead, just below the hairline. Usually covered by bangs.

My usual method of determining identity is to feel their foreheads for the bump, which is a little less intrusive than checking bellybuttons.

Yet establishing who’s who typically is only a momentary triumph. The minute they run off into the next room – and they’re always running off somewhere – I have to reacquire identity all over again.

At some point, it always comes down to me asking one of them: “Are you Abby? Or Zoey?”

At which point she’ll look me straight in the eye and say: “Where Gaga? I want tiss.”

Repeated interrogation usually results in one or the other finally admitting “I Abby” or “I Zoey.”

At least until recently.

Last week, after going through the usual ID rituals, I asked the girls “Which one of you is Abby?”

In response I got “I Abby” … from both girls.

And one devious little smile.

I can see where this going.

If you want to help the Rialto Square Theatre, now is the time.

Beginning immediately, we are undertaking an intense effort to raise operating funds for the Rialto to help bridge the management transition through yearend. We believe this is an investment worth making. Plans are to utilize every possible avenue and opportunity to encourage people to support the theater.

More details will follow in the coming days, but every dollar raised will help. If you are able to give $1, $5, $10 or more, please do so. You can donate directly to the Rialto Square Theatre Foundation, which is a registered 501(c)3, at www. rialtosquare.com or by mail to 102 N. Chicago St., Joliet, IL 60432.

The time is now to support the Rialto

To the Editor: The Rialto Square Theatre Foundation stands firmly with the WCMEAA in its selection of VenuWorks as a third-party manager for theater operations and programming. We believe selecting VenuWorks is an important step on a challenging but worthwhile path to making the Rialto a source of economic

stimulus in downtown Joliet and Will County.

The immediate priority is to help VenuWorks ramp up to full operations. VenuWorks offered to work for $1 per month through year-end and pay the salary and travel expenses of the interim executive director and corporate staff who will be working in Joliet during the transition.

It also has committed to spend up to $350,000 to upgrade the food and beverage operations. VenuWorks is putting real skin in the game in addition to its considerable professional expertise.

Now it’s our turn. The Foundation has raised more than $1.2 million to support theater operations since its current inception in 2012 and contributed more than $185,000 since April 2016. To say it has been a challenging fundraising

FOOTBALL: OSWEGO EAST 49, JOLIET WEST 14

By DICK GOSS

dgoss@shawmedia.com

• Sunday, August 28, 2016

JOLIET – The debut of Ivory Kelly-Martin in the Southwest Prairie Conference trumped Joliet West’s SPC football debut Friday night.

The Iowa-bound Kelly-Martin, a featured running back in Nazareth Academy’s march to the Class 5A state championship last season, transferred to Oswego East for the second semester of his junior year. All the 5-foot-11, 192-pound senior did Friday was rush for 222 yards in 24 carries and score four touchdowns as the Wolves beat the Tigers, 49-14.

Kelly-Martin scored on runs of 1, 40, 1 and 26 yards, quarterback Jaylon Banks added a 35-yard scoring run, and Chase Bruns kicked field goals of 34 and 32 yards for Oswego East, which led, 29-0, in the second quarter.

Joliet West got on the board late in the second quarter on sophomore quarterback Jaxon Aubry’s 8-yard rollout pass to Terrence Neal. Aubry, who also threw a 20-yard touchdown pass Johnny Holman in the third quarter, finished 28 of 50 passing for 307 yards. But he was harassed by the Oswego East pass rush, was intercepted twice and the Tigers, who rushed for a net of 19 yards, lost two fumbles.

“I think our offense sputtered a little at the beginning,” West coach Jason Aubry said. “With their 3-5 defense, they’re coming from all over the place.

Puttng pressure on the quarterback, that is what it is designed to do. Before we figured out what we could do, we were quite a bit behind.

“We just shot ourselves in the foot a lot. We did not have good field position.

We played an awful lot on our own side of the field. You can’t start inside the 10, and you can’t start with double sticks (more than 10 yards to a first down after penalty or sizable loss).”

Jaxon Aubry’s top targets were Omari Ferguson, who caught 12 passes for 94 yards, and Holman, who grabbed six for 105. Kevon Dorris caught four for 32 yards and Neal three for 56.

“When our offense gets going, we can do a lot of things,” Jason Aubry said.

“But we can’t sputter the way we did tonight.”

In addition to turning the ball over four times, West was penalized 12 times for 102 yards.

“They’re a decent team,” Jason Aubry said of Oswego East. “He (Kelly-Martin) is a good running back. He helped them a lot. But I don’t think they’re that much better than us. But we need to play solid assignment football, and we didn’t do that.”

Eric Ginnard - eginnard@shawmedia.com

Oswego East’s Elijah James chases Joliet West’s Jaxon Aubry on Friday at Joliet West High School in Joliet. The Tigers fell to the Wolves, 49-14.

Daniel Nelson’s interception that ended West’s second possession at the Tigers’ 23-yard line. Five plays later, Kelly-Martin was in the end zone for a 7-0 lead.

West’s subsequent possession ended in a Schumacher sack of Jaxon Aubry, and that led to an Oswego East scoring drive and a 14-0 lead. The Wolves scored twice more before the Tigers got the offense in gear.

The West defense forced punts on the Wolves’ first two series. After that, however, the combination of Kelly-Martin and Banks began to find holes. Kel-

ly-Martin rushed for 125 yards in the first half, when Banks completed 8 of 16 passes for 112 yards. Banks finished 11 of 22 for 130 yards and an interception by West defensive back Justin Painter.

“We scored 49 points, we have to be pleased with that,” Oswego East coach Tyson LeBlanc said. “We felt they (Tigers) were explosive. We didn’t know much about them as a football team, but we competed against them in track, and we knew they had guys who can run.

They will do some damage in our league.

Their better days are ahead.

“For us to win here was great, and to win convincingly was even better.”

Jason Aubry said he had the Wolves pegged as one of the best teams in the SPC. After the Tigers got the first look at the influence Kelly-Martin could have on the SPC race, he has not changed his view.

The Tigers are not concerned with Oswego East anymore, however. Their mission is to take care of the missed assignments and play the football the rest of the way that they feel they are capable of playing.

34 FOOTBALL: MORRIS 62, CHICAGO AUSTIN 0

Morris dominates Chicago Austin in season opener

By ROB OESTERLE

roesterle@shawmedia.com MORRIS – Midway through the third quarter of Morris’ season-opening football game against Chicago Austin Polytechnic, the skies opened up, rain poured down and lightning filled the southern sky.

Coaches from both teams met with the officials at midfield and decided to end the game right then and there rather than wait it out. It was just as well, since Morris already owned a 62-0 lead, which is how it ended.

“The only thing I didn’t like about ending it in the third quarter was that there were more guys I wanted to get into the game,” Morris coach Alan Thorson said. “They work just as hard in practice, and I was looking forward to them getting some game reps, but with the storm hitting, we just thought it best not to risk anyone getting hurt on either side.”

Morris, which hosts Washington next Friday, received the opening kickoff, and Michael Feeney nearly took it back for a touchdown. He was brought down at the Austin 25, with 13 more yards tacked on due to a horse-collar tackle. Michael Gerischer ran for five yards on the opening offensive play, then scored from seven yards out for the game’s first score just 50 seconds in. Dallas Hastings, who went 8 for 9 on extra-point attempts, made it 7-0.

On Austin’s second play from scrimmage, Morris’ Alonzo Enriques forced a fumble, and teammate Keagan Sobol recovered it at the 30. After a three-yard gain on a pass from Ricky Del Favero to Delaney Stutzki, Gerischer ran 26 yards to the 1, and Sean Grogan did the scoring honors for a 14-0 lead.

Austin Dearing grabbed an interception for the Redskins at the Austin 43 and, after an offensive pass interference penalty, Feeney ran 53 yards for a touchdown and a 20-0 lead, making a nice cutback move at the 25 to break into the clear. Morris then forced a turnover on downs, getting the ball back at the Austin 48. After an 11-yard scramble by Del Favero and an encroachment penalty, Gerischer, who finished with 70 yards on four carries, scored from 32 yards out to make it 27-0.

“It felt good to get out there and get the first game under our belts,” Gerischer said. “We pretty much did what we wanted. The big guys up front were opening up huge holes.”

the first half, Del Favero hit Stuzki on a quick hook pattern, and Stutzki made a couple of nifty escape moves that helped him reach the end zone from 27 yards out. Hastings then boomed the ensuing kickoff over the Austin return team’s heads and it went into the end zone, where a hustling Dearing fell on it for a touchdown and a 48-0 lead. By coaches’ agreement, the clock began to run continuously, and Morris was able to score once more before halftime, this time on a 49-yard run by Kameron Dransfeldt.

Kyion Willis capped the scoring with a six-yard run not long before the storm hit.

“We’ll have to look at the film, but we played well,” Thorson said. “We had a couple of touchdowns called back because of penalties, too. That we have to clean up.

JOLIET – One play made all the difference for the Plainfield East football team as the Bengals opened Southwest Prairie Conference play with a 6-0 victory over Joliet Central on Friday night.

With 7:40 left in the second quarter, junior Blake Coughlin intercepted Central’s Zach Wisneski and ran the pick to pay dirt from 24 yards out for the lone score.

“I just dropped back in our coverage on the third down play, and I saw the ball coming my way and jumped up and grabbed it,” Coughlin said.

In a game where not one offensive touchdown was scored, both coaches gave credit to the defense.

“Give Central’s defense all the credit in the world,” East coach Mike Romeli said. “They beat us up on the line. They were really flying to the ball. We would move the ball, but they never gave in and came up with some big stops.

“That No. 1 (Jomarre McNair) is one heck of a player, and if he would not have had trouble with cramps, this might have been a different game.”

Central coach Brett Boyter was equally complimentary to the East defense. He was also pleased with his Steelmen.

“This was a great first game,” Boyter said. “East played well, as we did, defensively. The positive attitude of our team really showed tonight. We will grow from this, fix some things offensively and be ready for next week.”

McNair, the senior receiver and defensive back, was all over the field on both sides of the ball in the first half.

He had four receptions for 35 yards in the half before cramps put him on the bench for most of the second half.

“I have to give a big shout-out to Sam Goin,” Boyter said. “When Jomarre went out with the cramps, Sam, a junior, was ready and made some big plays for us. That is the mentality of this team.

They are hungry. They expect to perform well.”

East started every drive in the first half in Central territory but never capitalized. Central’s defense came up with big stops when they were needed.

Bengals junior Elijah Hickman led all rushers with 112 yards on 18 carries.

Most came late in the second half. He ripped off runs of 30 and 35 yards that put East in great position that kept drives alive and used up valuable clock time.

Six different running backs carried the ball for East as the Bengals had 186 total rushing yards.

“We won the turnover battle tonight,” Romeli said. “That is key in any game, and tonight it proved to be the winner.

As a coach, you always see the biggest

Give credit to this team. We have 16 new starters on the field. We didn’t shoot ourselves in the foot tonight. We learned a lot tonight, and if we learn from week to week, we can only get better.”

For Central, Wisneski was 13 of 21 passing for 72 yards but was sacked five times for 37 yards in losses. Senior tailback Ernest Grant rushed for 37 yards on 10 carries and had two receptions for 9 yards.

“Our offense is a little off of where we should be,” Boyter said. “We will look at the film and get things corrected. It’s more of technique items than anything.

East blitzed a lot and caught Zach (Wisneski) by surprise early, then he was a little uncomfortable and didn’t find that rhythm. But we never let up on either side of the ball.

“Week 1 is always different because of the speed of the game. You can’t practice that. I’m happy with our effort. We will get better.”

Next week, East will host Plainfield Central and the Steelmen will play again at home against Minooka.

36 FOOTBALL: FRANKLIN 24, JOLIET CATHOLIC ACADEMY 14

Too many miscues for JCA in opener

By DRAKE SKLEBA

Shaw Media Correspondent FRANKLIN, Wisconsin – Joliet Catholic Academy journeyed to the greater Milwaukee area Friday night to open its football season against a quality Franklin team that already had a scrimmage and a regular-season game under its belt.

In addition, the inexperienced Hilltoppers were plagued by mistakes on both sides of the ball. All of that resulted in a 24-14 Franklin victory.

“We played a very good Franklin team with a new group of kids,” JCA coach Dan Sharp said. “Four of them never even played a game for their sophomore team last year, let alone the varsity.

“Every time we got rolling, we made huge mistakes. As an example, we had a 40-yard touchdown pass called back because of holding.”

After a scoreless first quarter, Franklin went up, 7-0, with 10:11 left in the second quarter on a 7-yard pass from Matthew Devinger to Mitch Dykstra. The Hilltoppers (0-1) got back even with 5:57 left in the half when quarterback Pat Roth hit Clay Briscoe with a 10-yard pass, and sophomore

Dan Sharp JCA coach

Tony Trabold kicked the extra point.

Briscoe caught two passes for 24 yards on the night and also played well at his linebacker post.

The Sabers (1-1) moved back ahead with a second left in the half on Austin Geiger’s 20-yard field goal, then made it 17-7 early in the third quarter on a score set up by a Hilltoppers turnover.

Mike Hennig’s 40-yard interception return to the JCA 20 set up Dykstra’s 1-yard touchdown run.

Franklin’s second TD pass early in the fourth quarter stretched the lead to 24-7 before Hilltoppers sophomore fullback Keenan Hailey capped a big night and completed the scoring with a 19-yard touchdown run. Hailey rushed

for 182 yards in 16 carries.

“We made too many mistakes on both sides of the ball,” Hailey said, echoing Sharp’s thoughts. “I had a good night running the ball, but I would be happy to trade it for a victory. We’re going to go back to work Sunday.”

The Franklin defense targeted JCA standout running back Ke’Von Johnson and limited him to 53 yards in 15 carries. Junior Simon Grashoff chipped in 45 yards in eight carries.

Roth managed six completions in 14 attempts for 36 yards and was intercepted twice.

“They shut down Ke’Von (Johnson) pretty well, although he had a couple of

good runs,” Sharp said. “I thought Pat Roth did a good job at quarterback.”

Franklin used two quarterbacks, and they combined to complete 17 of 23 passes for 242 yards. The Sabers netted 98 rushing yards for 340 total yards.

JCA senior linebacker Jacob Avery intercepted a pass that was tipped by teammate Andrew Hartsell in the first quarter to get the Hilltoppers in position to break what was then a scoreless tie, but they turned the ball over on downs in the red zone.

In the third quarter, Roth hit Grashoff for an apparent 40-yard touchdown pass, but it was nullified because of a holding call.

“We just made too many mistakes,” Sharp said. “But I’m very confident that we will give the Joliet area something to be proud of by the end of the season.”

Briscoe said that despite the loss, the Hilltoppers showed well.

“This was our first game against a very good opponent,” he said. “They had a scrimmage and a regular-season game under their belt.

“Under those circumstance, I thought we played pretty well for our first game. We made too many mistakes, though.”

FOOTBALL: PLAINFIELD NORTH 40, PLAINFIELD CENTRAL 7

Plainfield North runs past Plainfield Central

By SCOTT EHLING

Shaw Media Correspondent PLAINFIELD – Plainfield North senior running back Tyler Hoosman carried the ball 23 times for 125 yards and scored two touchdowns to lead the Tigers to a 40-7 victory over visiting Plainfield Central in the season and Southwest Prairie Conference opener for both teams Friday night.

For Hoosman, it was just one more game that illustrates why he is the workhorse of the Tigers’ offense and a player that defenses must prepare for.

“I think our offense is actually underrated,” Hoosman said. “I am really excited for the season because we have so many weapons on offense.”

North (1-0, 1-0) had significant contributions from all three phases of the team. On offense, senior running back Kevin Block (two rushes, 54 yards, TD), on defense Ari Ekowa (forced fumble) and JJ Frey (interception),

and on special teams Dillon McCarthy (82-yard kickoff return for touchdown).

Plainfield Central (0-1, 0-1) was led by senior quarterback Marcus Hayes (14 rushes, 91 yards, TD) and running back Lovell Houston Jr. (18 rushes, 48 yards).

North could not have scripted a better start as the defense forced a Wildcats’ three-and-out and on the Tigers’ first offensive play, Block scored on a 46-yard touchdown run for a 7-0 lead with 10:06 left in the first quarter.

“Kevin (Block) did a great job of running the ball on that play, and the guys did a nice job of blocking up front,” North coach Tim Kane said.

“We had special teams help us out, the offensive line did a nice job blocking ,and I was proud of our kids in the way they played and battled, especially not knowing what they [Central] were going to do or what to expect with a new coach.”

The game marked the first game for Central coach Jon Pereiro. He had taken over from John Jackson, who had been the Plainfield Central coach for 19 years. The Wildcats entered the game on a 28-game regular-season losing streak, 29 including a playoff loss in 2012.

“We really didn’t know what to expect coming into this game with their new coach and all,” Hoosman said.

“I knew that they (Wildcats) were going to come out and play hard and have a lot of energy, but exactly what they were going to do, we were not sure of,” Kane said. “I thought our kids handled it well.”

Central put a six-play 77-yard drive together on its next possession and tied the game at 7-7 when Hayes scored on a 39-yard run with 7:08 left in the first quarter.

“He’s a darn good football player,” Kane said of Hayes. “There is no doubt about that. He’s a playmaker.”

Zach Nadle’s 4-yard touchdown run extended the North lead to 13-7 with 0:18 left in the opening quarter and Hoosman’s 6-yard touchdown run padded the lead to 20-7 with 7:05 remaining until halftime. Hoosman’s touchdown run was set up by a Dillon McCarthy 51-yard punt return to the Wildcats’ 10-yard line.

With Central driving late in the half, Ekowa forced a Houston Jr. fumble inside the Tigers’ 5-yard line that effectively stopped any momentum the Wildcats had gained.

“I definitely like to lead by example,” Ekowa said. “I want to get better every week.”

Perhaps the biggest play came in the second half when McCarthy struck again and returned the second-half opening kickoff 82 yards for a touchdown that gave North a commanding 27-7 lead.

“Special teams definitely helped us out tonight,” Kane said.

FOOTBALL: PLAINFIELD SOUTH 35, ROMEOVILLE 9

Plainfield South rides choppy start past Romeoville

By DENNIS NELSON

Shaw Media Correspondent ROMEOVILLE – The words pretty season-opening win in football usually do not go together.

Add in the opening night of conference play and a lightning delay, and that made for a choppy start to the Southwest Prairie Conference matchup. However, that suited Plainfield South just fine.

South’s Sayvaun Roberts ran for 102 yards and quarterback Nick Deppe threw for a pair of scores in a 35-9 SPC win Friday night over Romeoville. The game was called with 5:49 remaining in the fourth quarter because of lightning.

“We feel good about ourselves, but we know we have a lot of work to do,” Plainfield South coach Bill Bicker said after his head coaching debut.

The contest was marred by 146 penalty yards, eight personal fouls and three ejections.

“That’s not acceptable,” South senior

receiver Tom Macari said. “We have to work on it. We can’t retaliate, and we need to keep our composure.”

The Cougars (1-0, 1-0) overcame it all as Deppe threw touchdown passes to Macari (8 yards) and Victor Ballard (18 yards), while Jake Portz (2 yards) and Nick Portz (3 yards) each ran for first-quarter touchdowns behind an improving offensive line.

“Our offense and defense were clicking,” Jake Portz said. “Our offensive line did great and opened up a lot of holes for the running backs. We had great line play tonight. Anybody can score touchdowns behind our offensive line.”

“I’m so proud of our offensive line.

The steps we made from the first day of summer to today were great,” Deppe said. “I don’t think I was touched but a couple of times tonight.”

Deppe completed 8 of 13 passes for 86 yards and two touchdowns. Macari caught six passes for 54 yards and a touchdown and Ballard hauled in two

for 32 yards.

“Our offensive line is making big strides, and Nick Deppe was great tonight,” Bicker said. “He ran the team; he was calm, composed and was incredible.”

What Roberts started, Veshawn Ward ended.

Roberts’ rushing total came during the first three quarters. Ward was the primary rusher during a fourth-quarter drive that put the game away. He finished with 70 yards on the ground and a score.

South led, 14-0, at the quarter and 21-3 at the half.

“We took what the defense was giving us,” Deppe said.

South’s first two drives started in Romeoville territory and resulted in touchdowns.

Ricky McKinney recovered a fumble at the South 13 to set up the first score for Romeoville (0-1, 0-1), a 32-yard field goal by Evan Lee with 2:46 left in the

first half.

South responded when Macari caught an 8-yard touchdown pass from Nick Deppe in the corner of the end zone with 23.4 to play in the first half. It gave South a 21-3 lead at the half.

During the Cougars’ final drive of the first half, the officiating crew called both coaches to midfield. Seven personal or unsportsmanlike penalties were called in the first half.

“It was getting a little chippy, and the referees wanted to keep control of the game,” Bicker said. “I had no problem with that.”

Jordan Nettles’ 65-yard touchdown run came just before lightning halted play and accounted for the only touchdown for Romeoville.

Two Spartans and a South player were ejected prior to the game being called.

“I don’t blame either team,” Bicker said. “It was Week 1, and kids on both sides were getting after it.”

MINOOKA – Two Oswego defenders got their hands on Minooka quarterback John Carnagio’s two-point conversion pass in the end zone and swatted it away Friday night to preserve a 7-6 Panthers win in the Southwest Prairie opener and season opener for both teams.

The Indians (0-1, 0-1) trailed Oswego (1-0, 1-0), 7-0, with 4:04 to play in the fourth quarter after Panthers quarterback Levi Olson found receiver Elliott Pipkin with a 44-yard touchdown pass.

Minooka started at its own 30. Carnagio’s passing and the running of Elijah Williams had the Indians at the Panthers’ 21-yard line in seven plays.

Carnagio then tossed a pass that almost hit the helmet of an Oswego defender but instead fell into the arms of Williams, who then outran two defenders to the end zone to cut the lead to 7-6 with 1:34 left in the fourth quarter.

Then lightning filled the sky over the stadium, and the game went into a weather delay for almost two hours.

When it resumed, Minooka brought its offense onto the field to go for the win.

The Indians split three receivers to the right side of the field. Carnagio rolled right, had time, and whistled

were going to go for two, so we used that hour and a half to our advantage.

I’m sure they did, too. We drew up the best defense with the best personnel that would put us in a position to win. It turned out that it worked on this one.”

Carnagio talked about the offensive plays that helped the Indians drive for a score.

“The quick-game stuff was working on our last drive,” he said. “It was there the whole game. Something just got into us at that time, and we kicked it up a notch. We were able to drive it down the field.

“That was the first time we ran that play with that route. I told Elijah to look early. I ran up and threw it and it barely made it over the defender, but he caught it and shed a couple of defenders and scored.”

Carnagio completed 19 of 29 passes for 177 yards and a touchdown. He did Larry W. Kane for Shaw Media not throw an interception.

38 FOOTBALL: LOCKPORT 20, DOWNERS GROVE NORTH 9

Lockport captures first opener since 2011

By CURT HERRON

Shaw Media Correspondent DOWNERS GROVE – After last winning a season opener in 2011, Lockport’s football team not only broke that streak but kicked off its 2016 campaign in impressive fashion.

The Porters jumped out to a 13-0 halftime advantage at Downers Grove North and kept the host’s offense off the scoreboard until the final seconds as it captured a 20-9 nonconference victory on Friday.

Boosted by a bend-but-don’t break-defense, an efficient offense and good special teams play, coach Dan Starkey’s Porters (1-0) avenged four straight opening losses to the Trojans (0-1) even though they were outgained by a 328-229 margin.

Despite facing an 84-36 disparity in plays run from scrimmage, including 53-14 in the final half, the Porters’ defense came up big throughout, stopping the Trojans on downs six times, including a third-quarter series that featured 21 plays and ran 10:11 off the clock.

“We asked our defensive linemen

to set a brick wall up front, no matter what defense we were in,” Starkey said. “But that was the one constant that stood out, our D-line was really dominant. We were on the field for over 80 plays, and in 13 years as a head coach I’d never had a game like that where we were on the field that often and still play so well.

“I’m really proud our kids since we have a lot of respect for Downers North because of the type of program that they are. To come here and get a win is really rewarding because our kids have really worked hard all offseason, so it’s great to see them get rewarded.”

After fumbling on the second play, the Porters forced North to settle for a 37-yard field goal, which Josh Baker blocked. Right after John Snidanko (11 for 81 rushing) ran 47 yards to put the ball at the six, Ben Davis (16 of 18, 149 yards) threw a touchdown to Payton Fernandes.

Baker was singled out by Trojans coach John Wander for his play along the defensive line. Beside his key blocked field goal, he had a pair of sacks among his many tackles and

caused havoc against North’s quarterbacks by deflecting and disrupting several passes.

Other leading tacklers for the Porters were Eric Jungheim, Nicholas Dado, Andrew Novak, Ryne Travis, Michael Mata, Brian Pietryk, Brayden Collins, Ronald Tucker Jr. and Luke Liszka, who made a pair of stops on fourth-down plays.

“I was looking to close it down and create a pile, but no one came down so I just went up and got it,” Baker said of his blocked field goal. “We feel a lot more comfortable with the lead.

Everyone’s heads are up, and we’re really excited and we just ride the wave. We kept on saying, ‘Just shut them out, don’t let them score,’ the whole game.

“This win definitely sets the tone for the rest of the season. Last year, we ended with a couple of wins, so it feels good to keep this win streak going.”

Lockport grabbed a 13-0 lead with 2:05 left in the first half after Davis tossed a 22-yard pass to Austin Hoffman. Three plays into the second half, Travis returned an interception 28

yards to the Trojan five and Snidanko ran in on the next play to make it a 20-0 game.

Davis was on the mark throughout, completing each of his passes to someone, including six to Patrick Cooper for 70 yards as well as two pickoffs.

And that was all behind an offensive line that features just one returnee, George Kringas.

“That was due to all of the reps that we do in practice,” Davis said of his accuracy. “We’re getting hundreds of reps, and the routes are crisp and hard to defend. I’m proud of my O-line since I had a lot of time. People were questioning them, but I’m confident in them. We’ve had guys step up like Dan Stojsavljevic, Austin Atwood, Jan Lukasik and Tommy Mulhall.

“After getting the three wins at the end of last year, our goal was to keep that streak going. This first win is big, and it’s going to help us a lot, but now we have to focus on South Elgin.”

North finally scored with 5:07 left when Hoffman was tackled in the end zone. And with eight seconds remaining, quarterback Nick Taviani ran in on a fourth and goal from the one.

FOOTBALL: LINCOLN-WAY WEST 30, PROVISO WEST 8

LaBuhn, Telez fuel Lincoln-Way West victory

By TIM CRONIN

Shaw Media Correspondent HILLSIDE – Perfection will have to wait another day for the Lincoln-Way West football team.

The Warriors opened their season Friday night with a 30-8 victory over Proviso West. That margin might have been wider without some sloppy play, but Justin LaBuhn’s three touchdown runs and Trey Telez’s punt-block touchdown more than made up for the rough edges.

“The O-line really got it done tonight,” LaBuhn said after his 166yard, 25-carry showing. “I can’t take any responsibility for that.”

In his third school in as many years after a transfer from Joliet West and the consolidation that moved him from Lincoln-Way Central to West, senior LaBuhn ran as if he had been on the campus since his first day as a freshman.

“I remember seeing them play Peo-

ria and Champaign (Central), and I knew that I wanted to play with these guys because they’ve got heart,” LaBuhn said, recalling the Warriors’ quarterfinal and semifinal playoff wins last season.

LaBuhn scored on runs of 1, 5 and 2 yards on the Warriors’ first, second and eighth possessions.

It was what happened on the possessions in between that raised eyebrows, given Proviso West’s 1-8 record and the Warriors’ 5A finalist status last season.

The Warriors, who piled up 86 penalty yards, were stopped on the Panthers’ 24, midfield, the Panthers’ 8, midfield again and the Proviso West 22. The defense held until it didn’t matter – and held the Panthers to only 88 yards, 59 coming on their scoring drive in the last five minutes.

Warriors coach Dave Ernst told his players what coaches have told their players since Amos Alonzo Stagg was playing, that a team’s

greatest improvement comes between the first and second game. That prospect should make for a lively series of practices leading into next week’s game against Bloom.

“These guys are going to be as good as they can possibly be because of their commitment,” Ernst said. “The potential for improvement is great.

That was a good team over there.

“These guys, you don’t really have to harp on them. They have a commitment to fixing it.”

Telez, one of the state’s most highly regarded defenders, scored the Warriors’ other touchdown by blocking a punt in the end zone and hanging on to it.

“I just ran in arms up,” Telez said.

“I think out of sheer reflex I just grabbed it.”

Along with that, Telez was in on a pair of the five sacks of Proviso quarterback Deveon Bryant.

The Warriors led only 14-0 at the half despite a 200-17 advantage in

yardage. They finished with a 336-88 edge but lost the shutout with 2:03 remaining when Bryant and Tyrese Christian collaborated on a 20-yard touchdown.

LaBuhn’s first score capped a sixplay drive that, aside from a 9-yard carry by Ryan Robbins, was mostly LaBuhn. The second finished a 10play sortie that covered 71 yards and featured quarterback Cal Pohrte’s only completion of the half, a 10-yard strike to Kevin Davis in the left flat.

Pohrte finished 8 of 15 for 83 yards.

“We just got the job done,” Pohrte said. “In the first half, Justin ran all over the field, and that’s what got us the victory tonight. Justin and Trey, I have all the confidence in the world in them. I’m glad I have them on our team.”

The Warriors romped in the sophomore game, 30-0, in part because they dressed 48 players to Proviso West’s squad of 18.

FOOTBALL: EAST ST. LOUIS 34, PROVIDENCE 3

By DICK GOSS

dgoss@shawmedia.com

• Sunday, August 28, 2016

NEW LENOX – Two schools with rich football traditions attracted a large crowd for Saturday night’s season opener at Bishop Kaffer Stadium.

Both were out to begin making amends for a 2015 season that did not exactly go as planned.

Visiting East St. Louis forfeited its final four games because of a teachers’ strike and officially closed with a 3-6 record. Providence was injury-plagued and also finished 3-6.

Unfortunately for the Celtics, one team got things going in a positive direction, the other did not. Behind the passing combination of Reyondous Estes to Jeff Thomas and a shutdown defense, Eat St Louis blew out to a 28-0 halftime lead en route to a 34-3 victory.

The Flyers, who are ranked No. 2 in the Associated Press Class 7A state poll, were doing what their name suggests, flying all over the field. For the fans in this part of the state who had not seen Thomas previously, they realized in a hurry they were watching one of the best. It comes as no surprise that he is among the most sought-after receivers in the nation.

Thomas finished with five receptions for 170 yards and two touchdowns.

He also intercepted a pass. Estes was 8 of 12 for 225 yards through three quarters and finished 11 of 22 for 245.

East St. Louis took the opening kickoff, and Thomas caught a 45-yard scoring bomb from Estes to cap a 78-yard drive and put the Flyers up, 6-0.

Later in the first quarter, a bad snap with the Celtics in their shotgun formation resulted an East St. Louis fumble recovery at the Providence 15-yard line. Three plays later, Jarrell Anderson scored from 2 yards out and Estes ran for the two-point conversion and a 14-0 lead.

It was more of the same in the second quarter as Estes and Perez Hall hooked up on a 28-yard pass-and-run play to set up Anderson’s 7-yard scoring run that made it 20-0. On the Flyers’ subsequent possession, Thomas’ remarkable

grab of a 49-yard bomb from Estes set up Jigg Brown’s 3-yard touchdown run.

Estes threw for the two-point conversion, and with 5:36 left before halftime, East St Louis led, 28-0.

All that time while Estes and Thomas were having their way with Providence’s defense, the Celtics’ offense was having no luck penetrating the Flyers’ defense. Providence finished the first half with 10 net yards of offense. Two of their three first downs at that point came via penalty.

An injury that was especially devastating to the 2015 Celtics was the one to tailback Richie Warfield. He is back healthy, but in the first half Saturday, he mustered 11 yards in eight carries and had no run of more than 3 yards.

For the game, he finished with 13 carries for 15 yards and caught four passes for 7 yards.

Providence scored first in the second half. A 15-yard penalty on East St. Louis, a 12-yard connection from Celtics quarterback Jared Drake to Martez Malone and Warfield’s tough 3-yard run on a fourth-and-1 set up Eduardo Favela’s 31-yard field goal to make it 28-3 midway through the third quarter.

Estes and Thomas were not finished, however, not by a long shot. Estes went 3 of 3 for 75 yards on the ensuing East St. Louis drive, culminating in a 48yard toss to a tumbling Thomas at the goal line. That made it 34-3.

Providence got an opportunity to score when Logan Anderson forced a fumble on a punt return and Kevin O’Boyle recovered at the East St. Louis 15. But four incompletions, featuring three heavy hits on Drake just as he released the ball, returned the ball on downs to the Flyers.

Drake hung in all night in the face of East Louis’ relentless pressure. He finished 8 of 24 for 40 yards. The Celtics netted a minus-1 yard on the ground and finished the night with 39 total yards. Three of the Celtics’ six first downs came via penalty.

East St Louis rushed for 120 yards to go with Estes’ 245 passing yards for 365 total. The Flyers picked up 18 first downs.

40 SOCCER: JOLIET CENTRAL 1, JOLIET WEST 0

Steelmen edge Tigers in Joliet soccer clash

By CURT HERRON

cherron@shawmedia.com BURBANK – Although they would have liked to meet in the quarterfinals, Saturday’s match between the boys soccer teams from Joliet Central and Joliet West was in the ninth-place bracket in the Windy City Ram Classic.

After both squads lost close second-round matches on Wednesday, the clash lost some of its luster. But unlike many of the consolation contests that took place on the numerous fields at Reavis, the rival Steelmen and Tigers played hard throughout, as you’d expect.

Central made the most of one of its initial opportunities when Misael Martinez connected on a free kick from about 35 yards out in the 13th minute to account for the lone score as the Steelmen claimed a 1-0 victory over the Tigers.

The Steelmen defense, which features seniors Brian Castillo, Angel Vega and Martinez and sophomore Jaime Bedolla, took over from there and helped backup goalie Ramon Ramirez to face few challenges.

“It was a tough game,” Martinez said. “I got in a goal that slipped right through the goalie luckily. We tried to create chances but couldn’t get them in, besides that one. They were coming at us and were bombing the ball into our defense and trying to win it in the

“It was a tough game. I got in a goal that slipped right through the goalie luckily. We tried to create chances but couldn’t get them in, besides that one. They were coming at us and were bombing the ball into our defense and trying to win it in the air.”

Misael Martinez

Steelmen soccer player air.

“We lost on a last-minute goal to Bremen, who was the favorite to win this tournament. Most of us have played together for years, so we know each other and have really good chemistry and have high hopes. We don’t even have to talk, we’re to the point where we can look at each other and get the pass.

We’re just like a big family.”

With a squad that’s loaded with seniors, Steelmen coach Eduardo Contreras believes that his team should enjoy a successful season.

“Any time you play your archrivals, everything goes out the window,” Contreras said. “It was like whoever got the one shot in would win. It helps having our captain (Castillo) back there since he does really well to keep it organized.

They’re a cohesive unit back there.

“Our starting keeper (Ignacio Rios) will be out for a week or two so Ramon stepped in big for us. We have 16 seniors, so we’re a pretty experienced

team. We create a family atmosphere and the kids enjoy playing with each other.”

West (1-2) had one of its best chances about midway through the first half when Ethan Pranckus fired a liner to Ramirez. Central (2-1) kept the pressure on as Josue Perez had an attempt flicked away by Leo Haro and then Jose Carranco saw his long free kick deflected by keeper Isaiah Diaz before his subsequent corner kick was thwarted by a defender.

In the final half, Perez was denied on a short shot, Felipe Ortiz had a corner kick headed away by Tim Spesia and Diaz also disrupted threats by Jaime Huichapa and Juan Vazquez.

“It’s always a fun game when we play Central and everyone gives all they’ve got,” Spesia said. “I’m sure that this was more intense than some of the games that are going on. We have a lot of young talent and they work hard every day at practice and in games. It’s

good when you have that kind of energy on a team.

“We’d like to win, but we have higher goals than beating Central; there’s more that we want to accomplish. Although this is a completely new team, we’re very close. As the season goes on, it’s going to keep growing and we’’ll get stronger. The key for us will be finding the net.”

After seeing his team fall to Argo in the ninth round of penalties on Wednesday and dropping a close decision to Central, who they’ll again see on Oct. 6, Tigers coach Patrick Korthauer is excited about what his squad might accomplish.

“It’s always a big game when we play each other,” Korthauer said. “We tried to emphasize that it was just another important game and nothing overly special, but once the whistle blows, it turns into what it is. It was really cool to have another opportunity to play them because there’s a great deal of respect for each other on both sides.

“We’ve got a handful of sophomores and quite a few juniors, but the family bond has come much faster than I anticipated. There’s still a lot of tactical and technical improvements that we will make, but this is a process and we’re still early on. The guys are extremely coachable, they respect the game and their talent leads me to be excited about the future.”

VOLLEYBALL: PLAINFIELD NORTH NORTH INVITE

By KAITLYN JASNICA

kjasnica@shawmedia.com

• Sunday, August 28, 2016

PLAINFIELD – Three area girls volleyball teams that reached the gold bracket of the Plainfield North Tournament on Saturday left with an overall positive feeling. Still, all three want much more.

Minooka, Plainfield Central and Lincoln-Way East all went 3-2 and finished in the top bracket of the highly competitive tournament. The Indians took fourth, while the Wildcats were sixth and the Griffins finished seventh.

Since this tournament boasts some of the top teams in the state, the competition revealed team flaws. Like any good team, all three are looking at areas of improvement.

Out of all area teams, Minooka had the highest expectations going into the season. And boy did it deliver at some points.

After narrowly escaping with a 2-1 win over Lincoln-Way East, Minooka stomped on Munster in the first game, 2511. But then history repeated itself.

“I’ve said for two years, it’s our serve receive that falls apart,” Minooka coach Carrie Prosek said. “When we’re in system, we do very well. We have good hitters, we just need to work on reflexes and reaction time.”

There it is for Minooka.

The Indians have arguably the best set of pin hitters in the state. In the tournament, Alli Papesh had 49 kills and a .485 hitting percentage, while Rocky Perinar added 35 and a .417 percentage and Holly Bonde 18 kills and a .300 percentage.

Brooklyn Bachmann tallied 108 assists.

It’s evidence that when they are in system, no one can stop the offense.

Despite experiencing two losses, the Indians (3-2) are very positive about this tournament because it identified their flaws. Now, they have all season to work on and improve them.

“One game at a time,” Prosek said.

“Right now it’s not about the wins and losses. It’s what happens the whole season and about putting our team together to make it work the way that it’s supposed to work. We’re figuring it out. We tried to figure out what our strongest and weakest rotations are. I’ll tell you, we figured it out. Now we just have to fix those rotations.”

That message holds true to all three of the teams: we’ll figure it out and fix it.

Plainfield Central (3-2) is slightly different, however. In the tournament, Wildcat coach Erik Vogt mixed everything up.

Standout setter Ashley Shook ran a 5-1 one game and a 6-2 the next. Like many, the Wildcats used this tournament to see which starting lineup works best for them.

And compared with previous years, Central might have realized that it can do a lot.

Three teams reach Plainfield North gold bracket

Larry W. Kane for Shaw Media

Plainfield Central’s (9) Ashley Shook sets the ball against Munster on Saturday at the 2016 Plainfield North Varsity Girls Volleyball Invitational at Plainfield North High School.

Since Vogt has taken over the program, the Wildcats have done very well in the conference and have made it to regional and sectional finals. But they never made it to gold in the Plainfield North Tournament.

Now they have, and on top of it, both of their losses were in close three-set games.

“Usually we struggle early on because we don’t have that much time to train, but this group has come together very quickly offensively,” Vogt said. “At this tournament, we’ve had a few players do extremely well. Ashley Shook and Taylor Landfair had very good first-weekend tournament. They’re playing above their ability levels. It’s nice to see them take such a big role when usually early on kids struggle finding their rhythm.”

“This tournament has given a lot of confidence as far as knowing what we can do. We have a long-term vision of where we want our program to be, but they need reassurance and confidence in order to achieve those goals. The kids are seeing that they’re not far from really good teams, teams that are ranked higher than us nationally and are more mature.”

Out of the trio of teams, Lincoln-Way East was the only team that was not nationally ranked. Going into Saturday and

against Minooka, however, the Griffins looked like they should have been.

Junior outside hitter Hanna Lesiak (36 kills) at times was undefendable, while senior libero Melanie Weller (61 digs) picked up balls that not many liberos could and middle Hailey Hart was playing well with nine blocks and 23 kills.

The only frustration came against Plainfield Central.

After losing to Minooka in a close three games, the Griffins (4-2) just didn’t play at the same level so they fell in two.

To coach Kris Fiore, that hiccup was hard to swallow because the errors during that game were due to inconsistency.

That inconsistency will be fixed with more practice, however. The team is still very young in the fact that they have not all played together at the high school level. Other teams might have players who have been on varsity two to four years together.

“We’re in a totally different scenario than everyone else,” Fiore said. “We have girls that came from two different schools and I am completely new to the girls side of the program. Everything is new to us.

We have girls that played another position at their high school than they are playing now.

“It’s a puzzle. I’m just trying to move players in different spots to help us be the best team that we can be. At this point of the season, it’s trial and error. We try new things and see if it works.

“I keep telling the girls that we can’t expect to beat everyone right out of the gates. Our end goal is where we’re at in November. I said I’m going to tweak the lineup now until the beginning of October until we can figure out what works best for us. It’s encouraging, but we want Lincoln-Way East volleyball to be one of the premier programs in the state. Our girls understand that; we just have a lot of work to get there.”

Even though Minooka, Plainfield Central and Lincoln-Way East each found areas that they need to improve at the North tournament, they also showed huge signs that the three will be threats come postseason.

Even though they did not finish in gold, other area teams excelled as well.

In the silver division, Lockport took third while Lemont finished sixth. Plainfield South took fourth in bronze, while Plainfield North took fifth and Bolingbrook was sixth.

Slammers take 2 of 3 at Washington SUBMITTED REPORTS WASHINGTON, Penn. – After sweeping a doubleheader on Friday, the Joliet Slammers put themselves in a position to clinch the Frontier League’s East Division championship if they won the final two games of their weekend series at Washington.

But the Wild Things made sure that the division race wouldn’t be decided until the final week of the regular season after they captured a 13-8 victory over the Slammers on Saturday.

As a result, Joliet saw its lead drop to 31/2 games over Washington. Both teams have seven games left, with

Sunday’s matchup the last between them. Starting Tuesday, the Slammers play three on the road and then three at home, while the Wild Things have six road games.

Things started well for Joliet (4841) when it scored twice in the first inning on a leadoff single by Alfredo Rodriguez (2 for 3) and a homer from Marc Flores (two RBI). But Washington (44-44) scored four times in the bottom of that frame against Slammers starter Kaleb Ort. After the squads exchanged runs in the second inning, with Charlie White (2 for 3) homering for Joliet, the hosts broke things open by scor-

ing five times in the fourth to grab a 10-3 lead.

Joliet scored four times in the seventh. Melvin Rodriguez (2 for 4) doubled before Joe Staley (two RBI) homered. Later, Jake Gronsky (2 for 4, three RBI) singled in Alfredo Rodriguez and White, but Washington got three runs in its seventh. In the ninth, Gronsky singled in White.

Andrew Heck went 3 for 5 for the Wild Things, while David Popkins and Austin Wobrock both had two RBI. Christian Powell picked up the victory.

On Friday, Joliet won 5-1 and 4-2 to grab a 41/2 lead in the division. Liam

O’Sullivan (10-1) tossed a five-hitter and struck out five while allowing no earned runs in seven innings in the opener. Joliet scored all of its runs in the fifth. Gronsky and Carter Bell both had RBI singles before Mike Garza (2 for 3) smacked a three-run homer. Zarley Zalewski also went 2 for 3.

In the finale, Chris Rice and Zach Hirsch combined on a four-hitter.

Rice allowed three hits in five innings to get the victory, while Hirsch yielded one hit in two frames for the save.

White (two RBI) went 2 for 3 while Alfredo Rodriguez (RBI) and Gronsky each went 2 for 4.

PRESEASON: CHIEFS 23, BEARS 7

BEARS INSIDER Hub Arkush

It is reasonable to hope at least one of the Bears’ tight ends is still waiting to be cut from another team, as the group on the roster now is woefully inadequate.

Finally, on defense, where the Bears already have issues in the secondary, there is the puzzle of this year’s ninth overall pick in the draft, Leonard Floyd. He was all suited up for the dance but never left the sideline, we believe because of a hamstring he’s been battling. So why was he dressed?

To date, Floyd has been slowed by illness, a sore shoulder and now the hammy. If he’s hurt, he’s hurt. That’s the nature of the game.

But it’s also fair to ask whether his spindly frame, a concern the day he was drafted, is part of the problem.

Until now, the party line from Fox and Cutler that it’s just the preseason and we have some things to clean up has been reasonable.

After the Bears’ embarrassing performance against the Chiefs, it’s reasonable to be concerned embarrassing is what they will be this year.

BEARS NOTES

Starting cornerback Porter in concussion protocol

By KEVIN FISHBAIN

kfishbain@profootballweekly.com CHICAGO – Every team’s goal in the preseason is to get out of it healthy, and the Bears lost as close to an indispensable player as they have on defense in Saturday’s preseason game against the Chiefs in cornerback Tracy Porter.

Then, the team’s bright spot on offense, reserve quarterback Connor Shaw, suffered a broken leg in the fourth quarter.

Porter is in the concussion protocol after a collision with safety Harold Jones-Quartey in the second quarter.

Porter had sat out the two previous series before returning with the rest of the starting secondary late in the first half.

Porter lay on the ground for a couple of minutes before sitting up and eventually walking off the field with trainers, slowly, to the locker room.

The Bears were already without starting corners Kyle Fuller, who is re-

covering from a knee scope, and Bryce Callahan, who has been dealing with a hamstring injury for two weeks.

Shaw came in for Brian Hoyer after Hoyer took a vicious hit from Chiefs linebacker Dadi Nicolas. The second-year quarterback provided a spark to the offense, completing 5 of 6 passes for 68 yards and a touchdown.

On his second drive, though, Shaw

broke his leg above the left ankle, per multiple reports.

Coach John Fox called it a “very serious” injury.

“Our thoughts and prayers are with him and his family,” Fox said.

Shaw was carted off the field with an aircast on his leg and left for the hospital after the game.

Shaw was claimed off waivers in July and had been the third quarterback in the game, ahead of David Fales, the past two weeks. In three preseason games, Shaw completed 11 of 16 passes for 127 yards and two touchdowns, good for a passer rating of 132.0.

“To see that, it’s really heartbreaking, obviously for him, but for a guy like me who has watched him develop and grow, you just really feel for him,” said Hoyer, who played with Shaw in Cleveland in 2014. “He’s a tough and resilient kid, and he’s gonna need that now, as it’s going to be a dark time. That’s just the way it is. That’s just part of football, and unfortunately it happened to

a great kid.”

According to NFL Network’s Stacey Dales, Hoyer is “dealing with sore ribs” after the hit he took.

Trevathan, Langford start: Despite missing time the past week with injuries, Danny Trevathan and Jeremy Langford got first-team reps in Saturday’s game. Trevathan had been limited with a hamstring injury, and Langford missed time with a foot injury. Both returned in a limited fashion late in the week.

Langford had six carries for 17 yards, and Trevathan had three tackles. Tony Moeaki also played after missing practices during the week.

On the sideline: Kyle Long, Zach Miller, Eddie Royal, Deonte Thompson, Deon Bush, Ben Braunecker, Kyle Fuller, Lamin Barrow and Nick Kwiatkoski did not dress. Leonard Floyd, who missed a practice with a hamstring injury, was in uniform but did not play.

“We just held [Floyd] out like some of the other guys,” Fox said.

CHICAGO – I’m sorry, Bears fans, but there’s no putting lipstick on this pig.

If the “All-Important Third Exhibition Game” is, in fact, all-important, your 2016 Chicago Bears stink.

You want the good news? Punter Patrick O’Donnell kicked the heck out of the ball Saturday in the Bears’ 23-7 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs. Of course, he had plenty of practice.

That’s it.

As we prepare the Bears’ disaster relief list, let’s start with the offensive line.

Rookie Cody Whitehair can play and should get better, and emergency fill-in Cornelius Edison was better than half-bad, but the guys everyone is counting on – Charles Leno Jr., Bobby Massie and Ted Larsen – appear lost at times when they’re not just getting flat-out beat.

Of course, getting Kyle Long back matters, but by himself he won’t be nearly enough.

Still, as bad as the O-line looked against the Chiefs, it was no excuse

ing-out party for Kevin White, he showed against the Chiefs he is clearly not close to fulfilling his potential.

On a key third-and-10 from the Chiefs’ 30-yard line in the third quarter, White was open on an 18-yard square out, but rounded off his cut instead of breaking sharply to the sideline, causing Cutler to miss him wide by 5 or 6 feet and then gesture H.

Hammel struggles again in loss to Dodgers

By BETH HARRIS

The Associated Press LOS ANGELES – The runs keep piling up even as Jason Hammel’s starts get shorter.

The Cubs pitcher was pulled after just 39 pitches over 21/3 innings – his briefest outing of the season – in a 3-2 loss to the Los Angeles Dodgers on Saturday.

“I took Jason out because I didn’t think things were going to straighten out,” Cubs manager Joe Maddon said.

“That’s the reason I did it, no excuses. I wanted to give the bullpen some meaningful work.”

Hammel (13-7) gave up three runs and five hits. The right-hander was coming off a poor performance against Colorado, allowing a season-high 10 runs (six earned) in 31/3 innings of an 11-4 loss. Hammel remained winless in nine career games (six starts) at Dodger Stadium.

Since winning six straight starts to open the second half, Hammel has allowed 13 runs (nine earned) in just 52/3 innings.

“Joe and I talked after the game about it but it’s not a topic for discus-

“There’s nothing wrong with me mechanically. I’m fine.”

Julio Urias allowed one run over six innings and Corey Seager set a Dodgers franchise record for a shortstop with his 23rd home run as Los Angeles evened the series between NL division leaders.

Urias (5-2) pitched better at home than the last time he faced the Cubs.

The rookie left-hander made his second career start in Chicago on June 2 and gave up six runs – five earned – and eight hits in five innings while serving up three homers.

This time, he allowed six hits and tied a career high with eight strikeouts and two walks. He is 4-0 in six games (four starts) since the All-Star break.

Kenley Jansen pitched a perfect ninth for his 38th save a day after allowing a run on a wild pitch in the ninth in a 6-4, 10-inning loss.

The Cubs’ four-game winning streak ended when their rally in the seventh came up short. They got to 3-2 on pinch-hitter Jason Heyward’s RBI single off reliever Pedro Baez.

Heyward got caught stealing, and Baez walked Dexter Fowler and Kris Bryant before getting Anthony Rizzo on an inning-ending grounder.

Los Angeles took a 3-1 lead in the third on RBI singles by Chase Utley and Justin Turner. Utley’s hit was the third straight given up by Hammel to start the inning.

Seager tied the game at 1 in the first, giving him the most homers by a Dodgers shortstop in franchise single-season history. He broke the old mark of

22 set by Glenn Wright in 1930.

TRAINER’S ROOM Cubs: RHP John Lackey (right shoul-

der strain) will throw a bullpen session on Monday in Chicago.

Dodgers: OF Scott Van Slyke won’t play again this season. He’s on the DL with right wrist irritation after being out nearly two months earlier in the season with low back irritation. “He doesn’t have the range of motion he needs to contribute,” manager Dave Roberts said. ... LHP Clayton Kershaw (mild disk irritation) will face hitters in a simulated game on Tuesday in Los Angeles, Rancho Cucamonga or Arizona.

UP NEXT Cubs: LHP Jon Lester (14-4, 2.81

ERA) is 1-1 with a 4.05 ERA in two career starts at Dodger Stadium. The team is 7-0 in his last seven starts.

Dodgers: RHP Brock Stewart (0-2, 11.25) makes his third career major league start after being recalled from Triple-A Oklahoma City on Friday.

He last pitched on Aug. 19 against Albuquerque, allowing four hits in five scoreless innings.

Abreu leads White Sox HR parade in rout of Mariners

Justin Morneau’s first triple of the season in the fifth scored Todd Frazier.

Garcia followed with a two-run shot off Nuno. Garcia also doubled twice.

The Associated Press

CHICAGO – Jose Abreu hit the first of four White Sox home runs and Jose Quintana threw 72/3 solid innings to lead Chicago past the Seattle Mariners, 9-3, on Saturday night.

Avisail Garcia and Alex Avila hit consecutive homers during a four-run fifth and Tyler Saladino added a tworun shot in the seventh, all off struggling reliever Vidal Nuno.

Abreu extended his hitting streak to 10 games and his on-base streak to 23 with a solo shot during a two-run first against Ariel Miranda (1-1).

The left-handed Miranda pitched four innings, allowing three runs and five hits while throwing just 47 of 90 pitches for strikes.

Quintana (11-9) allowed a run and five hits, struck out eight and lowered his ERA to 2.77 in Chicago’s fifth win in seven games.

After a hot August start that got them into playoff contention, the Mariners have lost four of five.

The White Sox’s Jose Abreu hits a home run off Seattle Mariners’ Ariel Miranda during the first inning Saturday in Chicago.

Quintana allowed a leadoff double to Leonys Martin in the first, and he scored an unearned run, thanks to Avila’s passed ball. But Avila made up for it in his first game off the disabled list with a solo shot in the fifth.

Left fielder Melky Cabrera, back after missing two games with an illness, added a first-inning sacrifice fly

three, tossed his bat and jogged all the way to first in the fifth before realizing he didn’t walk. Quintana struck him out on the next pitch.

NEW FACES

Ambidextrous pitcher Pat Venditte, a reliever acquired from Toronto this month, joined Seattle with his special glove after a stint in Triple-A. “Splits have said I’m a little bit better from the left side,” Venditte said.

“So I would imagine that’s how I’ll be used here.”

Also arriving in a flurry of moves were INF Dae-Ho Lee from Tacoma and reliever Dan Altavilla, who was wide-eyed after getting called up from Double-A Jackson.

Altavilla hit 100 mph in a perfect eighth and struck out Frazier in his major league debut.

for 4 after missing three games with a bruised right foot. Seager’s return, along with an upcoming schedule heavy with left-handed opposing pitchers, led Seattle to option OF Norichika Aoki to Triple-A Tacoma. ... Manager Scott Servais said RHP Tom Wilhelmsen (back spasms) was “not crazy” about going on the disabled list. “We really don’t have time where we’re at in the bullpen right now to give him five or six days,” Servais said.

White Sox: RHP Miguel Gonzalez (groin) threw a simulated game. He’s UP NEXT eligible to come off the disabled list.

Seattle RHP Taijuan Walker (4-8, 4.14 ERA) faces LHP Carlos Rodon (48, 4.02) to close the four-game series OOPS Seattle’s Chris Iannetta took ball Sunday.

McDowell wins Xfinity race at Road America

By GENARO C. ARMAS The Associated Press

ELKHART LAKE, Wis. – Michael McDowell pointed his No. 2 Chevy against a concrete barrier at the finish line, burning his tires in a smoky celebration.

Finally, a late lead didn’t disappear for McDowell at Road America.

McDowell edged teammate Brendan Gaughan by 0.534 seconds in overtime on an overcast, sometimes misty Saturday afternoon at the sprawling road course for his first career NASCAR Xfinity Series victory.

Brennan Poole was third, while pole-sitter Alex Tagliani finished seventh in the 194-mile race.

After five career top-five starts at Road America, McDowell has the ending that he sorely wanted.

“Today was a great day to check it

off” the list, said McDowell, a regular on NASCAR’s top Sprint Cup circuit.

McDowell finished second in 2012.

He dominated most of the race the previous year before losing the lead on the second of three attempts at a greenwhite-checkered overtime finish.

McDowell started watching video of that race on Friday night before deciding to turn it off.

“I shut it off with five to go,” he said.

“I’m glad I did.”

Gaughan nearly played spoiler.

The Richard Childress Racing teammates went bumper-to-bumper midway through the last lap.

“When I came out of Turn 5, Brendan was right there with me,” McDowell said. “I said, ‘Uh oh.’”

It was the start of four-turn stretch of the 14-turn track in which Gaughan said he thought he had the best shot to overtake McDowell.

LITTLE LEAGUE WORLD SERIES

Mancini leads Endwell, New York, to Little League

By TRAVIS JOHNSON The Associated Press

SOUTH WILLIAMSPORT , Pa. – With the Little League World Series title game looming Sunday, the Endwell, New York, players planned on taking a break from baseball if only for one evening.

They’ll retreat to their dorms near Lamade Stadium and dive into their other preferred pastime.

“A lot of ping pong,” infielder Jack Hopko said.

Hopko broke a scoreless tie with an RBI single in the bottom of the fourth and Michael Mancini led struck out 11 in a 4-2 victory over Goodlettsville, Tennessee, in the U.S. final Saturday.

The Mid-Atlantic champs will try to win their first title against international winner South Korea on Sunday. South Korea beat Panama, 7-2, earlier Saturday in the international final.

“I don’t think I can describe it, maybe the boys can,” New York manager Scott Rush said. “Just an unbelievable feeling.”

New York players Mancini, Hopko,

Billy Dundon and Jude Abbadessa appeared in the postgame media room and all used the same word – “Amazing.”

It was Mancini’s pitching that inspired his teammates, shut down Goodlettsville and earned him praise from the opposing manager and a standing ovation from Endwell fans who packed the first-base side of Lamade Stadium when he exited in the fifth.

Mancini allowed just one hit through 42/3 innings and his offense came alive in the fourth. Then, Dundon drove in two runs, and Hopko and James Fellows each had an RBI for New York.

“The curveball is usually my biggest pitch because I know if I’m down in the count I can throw that and get back up and maybe get them out with that pitch,” Mancini said. “So you never know what can happen with that pitch.”

Tennessee manager Joey Hale praised his players’ approach while acknowledging his hitters struggled to find Mancini’s elusive curve ball for much of the game.

He’s a music man

Former Joliet resident has arranged music for popular entertainers

By DENISE M. BARAN–UNLAND

F

At age 77, former Joliet resident Fred Wayne is still arranging music. He stopped by The Herald-News on Aug. 8 in Joliet to share the details about a career that began when he was a teen.

Eric Ginnard - eginnard@shawmedia.com

dunland@shawmedia.com

red Wayne is a real music man.

Wayne said he’s played music; taught music; arranged music for Count Basie, Derek David of the Platters, Woody Herman, Helen Reddy, Marlena Shaw and saxophonist Sonny Stitt; and he’s still arranging music for bands all over the world.

“I’ve written for Frank Sinatra Jr. – who just passed away – and Dizzy Gillespie,” Wayne said. “I wrote for Clark Terry – I did over 50 arrangements for him.”

Now 77, living in Florida and raising the youngest of his 10 children – ages 15 and 9 – Wayne recently returned to Joliet for his 60th reunion from the former Joliet Catholic High School and stopped by The Herald-News to discuss his career, past and present.

“So many people know of me musically because my band, the Fred Wayne Orchestra, played all over the city from 1952 to 1963 or 1964,” Wayne said. “But they don’t know what I’ve done. I’ve written over 7,000 musical arrangements, probably close to 8,000. I have 17 filing cabinets in the garage totally stuffed with music arrangements and orchestra arrangements I did.”

With him was a January 2015 edition of the Polk County Sun that featured a story about Wayne. The story depicted many autographed photos from notable musicians thanking Wayne for his contributions to their music.

But mostly, Wayne’s proud of the influence his musical skills had on youth, even some of his own children.

“My first six kids are all professional musicians,” Wayne said.

Born in Joliet and educated at the former St. Joseph Parish School and former Joliet Catholic High School, Wayne credited his father, who worked at the steel mill but repaired radios on the side, for stoking Wayne’s interest in music.

“My father used to play records at St. Joseph Park every week, like a DJ, and I sat and listened to the music,” Wayne said. “He influenced me without realizing he was influencing me.”

In grade school, Wayne spent the

“So many people know of me musically because my band, the Fred Wayne Orchestra, played all over the city from 1952 to 1963 or 1964. But they don’t know what I’ve done. I’ve written over 7,000 musical arrangements, probably close to 8,000. I have 17 filing cabinets in the garage totally stuffed with music arrangements and orchestra arrangements I did.”

Fred Wayne

Former Joliet resident money he earned delivering newspapers at Fowler Records in downtown Joliet. Seeing the 1950 musical drama “Young Man with a Horn” inspired Wayne to play the trumpet.

By 13, Wayne was playing and arranging professionally and advertising his services in magazines.

Wayne played in parks, for Sunday socials and at school dances.

“When people say, ‘What’s your best arrangement?’ I say, ‘My last one or my next one, which will be even better,’ ” Wayne said. “I try to learn something new every day. I’m going to die with a pencil in my hand.”

For 37 years, Wayne taught music in Chicago schools. Wayne said he was named Teacher of the Year in 1970 and appeared with his school band on the Ray Rayner Show in 1972. Many of Wayne’s band students were from poor neighborhoods, but music provided a positive outlet and kept them out of trouble.

“They all got careers and some became professional musicians,” Wayne said.

Today, Wayne arranges more than he plays.

Wayne said he began moving away from bands in the late ’80s and early ’90s when karaoke began replacing full orchestras.

“My last playing experience was with a snowbird band in Polk County,” Wayne said. “That was four years ago. I miss playing trumpet. It was fun, enjoyable. Music can keep you young.”

Nonetheless, Wayne still has plenty of arranging jobs. Wayne estimated he spends about six to eight hours a day writing arrangements – mostly jazz – for clients in the United States and Europe.

“I used to do more than that,” Wayne said.

When he’s not writing music, Wayne is working on his autobiography. He’s full of stories of working and brushing shoulders with industry greats that he’ll likely be writing for some time.

“I’m only up to 1965,” Wayne said with a smile.

Students, parents design ‘dream’ playground SUBMITTED REPORT BOLINGBROOK – Tibbott Elementary School took a giant step toward what Principal Ana Wilson terms “a dream come true” Thursday when the parties involved in the construction of a new 4,000-square-foot playground began the design process.

Now, with input from students, parents and the Valley View School District 365U Facilities Department in hand, the Bolingbrook school should have a fully operational playground before winter snows set in, weather permitting.

Washington, DC-based KaBOOM!, a national nonprofit dedicated to making sure all kids get the kind of active and balanced play they need to thrive, is the catalyst in the project. Funding will be provided by Chicago-area Target stores, the VVSD Facilities Department and donations raised through the Tibbott Playground Funding Effort.

Target also will provide roughly 125 of the 200 or so volunteers who will descend on Tibbott Oct. 6 for the one-day installation. Wilson is looking for community volunteers to pitch in as well.

Photo provided

Kindergartner Madeline Waldorf puts the finishing touches on her design for a new playground at Tibbott Elementary School in Bolingbrook.

KaBOOM!’s project manager Jacob Stachler led Thursday’s unique design process, first helping several dozen Tibbott students of all ages design their “dream playgrounds” and later meeting with Tibbott parents to match the children’s designs with the types of playground pieces available.

In between the two meetings, Stachler met with VVSD Facilities

Department personnel to go over construction specifics.

The new playground will be located in back of the school between the new bus drop-off lanes and the school’s edible garden.

Tibbott has been without its own playground for many years.

Students have had to make the best use of fields or play on blacktop in the parking lot.

Thank you for your kind expressions of sympathy after my son, Jermaine Bennett tragic accident. We can never prepare for the depth of despair that such a sudden death brings, but you, our friends helped tremendously in our mourning of Jermaine’s passing and the celebration of his life.

Your words and acts of kindness were a rare comfort in what has been one of the most difficult times of our lives, and for that we will always be indebted to you.

How to keep your face looking young without surgical means Dear Dr. K: I’m 65, and my face is starting to look old. Can you recommend nonsurgical treatments to take a few years off my face?

Dear Reader: Our faces age along with the rest of us. The difference is our face is the part of ourselves we look at most often – and others look at most often. Some people accept these changes; others fight them every step of the way. But there’s also a middle road for people who prefer to make relatively small tweaks that can make a noticeable difference.

When we’re young, fat plumps up our forehead, temples, cheeks and areas around our eyes and mouth. With age, that fat loses volume. Features that were round may sink. Skin that was smooth and tight loosens and sags. Facial bones also change.

Our upper jaw, lower jaw and cheekbones shrink. Less bone contributes to looser skin. And, of course, there are the wrinkles.

Many nonsurgical treatments can give your face a more youthful appearance.

I was really dubious about this, but I’ve learned I was wrong. And I didn’t learn this just from my dermatologist colleagues – I learned it from my patients: • Sun protection. Protecting your face from the sun is the single best way to keep it looking youthful. Use broad-spectrum sunscreen that protects against both UVA and UVB light, and wear a wide-brimmed hat when you’re outside. My dermatologist colleagues say to do this “whenever you’re outside, even for a minute.” What I recommend, and what I do myself, is to use sunscreen and a hat whenever I know I’ll be

SUDOKU

ASK DOCTOR K Anthony L. Komaroff outside for more than 10 minutes a day. (I’ll bet I get mail from dermatologists telling me that’s too lenient.)

• Creams and lotions. Moisturizers temporarily may make wrinkles less noticeable.

Exfoliant creams can remove dead skin cells that don’t slough off as readily as they used to. Prescription creams containing retinoids reduce wrinkles and liver spots caused by sun exposure.

• Botulinum toxin (“Botox”) injections partially immobilize facial muscles to smooth out expression lines on the forehead and between the brows. They are safe, but you should find a doctor who has considerable experience doing them.

• Dermal fillers treat lines created by lost collagen and fat. Prime treatment locations are the pair of lines that extend from the nose to the corners of the mouth, and another pair that extends from the corners of the mouth to the chin.

• Laser treatments can home in on liver spots. They’re also used for wholesale facial resurfacing. The uppermost skin layers are stripped away, and with them, wrinkles from sun damage and acne scars.

Smoother layers of tissue replace the old, damaged layers.

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

HOW TO PLAY Each row, column and set of 3-by-3 boxes must contain the numbers 1 through 9 without repetition.

Guest’s behavior at wedding earns no thanks from bride Dear Abby: During my wedding reception a month ago, one of the guests (a friend of my mom’s) poured a glass of water on the DJ’s laptop because he felt the music was too loud and he wanted it shut down. My husband was furious and asked the guest to leave. The incident was blamed on too much alcohol, and it ruined the rest of the evening. Many guests were upset and left.

The man ended up paying the DJ to replace the laptop and sent us a note of apology for his behavior. My question is, must we send a thank-you note to him and his wife for the wedding gift they gave us? What the man did was unforgivable. In many ways he spoiled our day. Mom thinks I should “do the right thing” and thank them for the gift.

It wasn’t his wife’s fault, so I am thinking of addressing the note to her only. Is that OK? – Wedding Day Survivor

BE A GOOD

DEAR ABBY Jeanne Phillips Dear Survivor: I know of no rule of

etiquette that forbids addressing the note only to her. However, when you write the note, word it this way, “We want to thank you and ‘John’ (or ‘your husband’) for the (gift), and we’ll think of you when we use it.” That way you will have thanked them both for it, and your manners will be above reproach.

Dear Abby: I am in the process of a divorce from my husband who cuts himself. Recently, he had an episode that resulted in a 72-hour hold for evaluation in a hospital. This is more than I can handle. My fear is finding him dead one morning. He says he loves me and wants

NEIGHBOR

to work things out, and he promises to stop (he’s promised before). Am I being selfish for wanting out? – Selfish In

Sacramento Dear Selfish: Promising to stop

self-harming behavior is not enough.

Unless your husband is willing to get the necessary psychotherapy it will take for him to keep his promise, nothing will change. The question is, if your husband is willing to get the help he needs and shows he is following through, would it have any effect on your decision to divorce him?

Dear Abby: My daughter has been living with her boyfriend for three years with no promise of marriage. She is 37, so we have advised her very little. The problem is, she wants us to continue treating him as family at gatherings and celebrations. Her father, sister and I are uncomfortable with this. On her

Volunteer.

most recent birthday, we were hoping he would give her a ring, but he gave her a snowboard.

We think he is leading her on and has no intention of marrying her. We no longer feel comfortable treating him like a member of our family. Are we right? –

Looking Out For Our Girl Dear Looking Out: What you were

hoping your daughter’s boyfriend would give her for her birthday is irrelevant.

I understand you would like your daughter to be married, but it is possible she and this man are comfortable with things the way they are. If you start to freeze him out, you may alienate not only him but also your daughter, so I don’t recommend it.

John Dewey, an education reformer, philosopher and psychologist, said, “The self is not something readymade, but something in continuous formation through choice of action.”

A bridge deal is not something ready-made, but something in continuous formation through choice of calls and plays. In this deal, South receives the diamond-nine opening lead against his contract of four spades. Given that trumps are not 4-0, how should the play proceed?

In the auction, North was right to jump-raise to three spades. He may either ignore his diamond jack (although it is a key card here) and count one point for each doubleton, or count the jack and one point for the doubleton heart, giving him 15 support points. Also, the hand has six losers (two hearts, two diamonds and two clubs), one fewer than a minimum opening.

Given that East probably has the heart ace for his overcall, there seem to be 10 easy tricks: five spades, one heart, two diamonds, one club and a diamond ruff in the dummy. But as West unexpectedly has the heart ace, South might lose two hearts and two clubs. What is the solution?

South should pay careful attention to the diamond suit. West’s nine lead denies the 10. So, East must have the king and 10, which allows declarer to take three diamond tricks if he covers the nine with dummy’s jack. He captures East’s king with his ace, draws trumps ending in the dummy, plays a diamond to his eight, and discards one of dummy’s hearts on the diamond queen. Then he can claim 10 tricks: five spades, three diamonds, one club and a heart ruff on the board.
