NEW LENOX – The Lincoln-Way District 210 board adopted the fiscal 2017 budget, and suggestions were made by some board members on the budgeting process.

Board President Dee Molinare and Vice President Christine Glatz were absent from Thursday’s meeting.

At the meeting, board member Christopher Lucchetti said he still thought there was a need for a multi-year cash flow projection considering the changes that occurred from the preliminary budget to the final version the board considered approving.

Not factoring the tax anticipation warrants, he said, the district has fund balances of negative $6.4 million. The fiscal 2017 budget is projecting a surplus of about $2.1 million, he said.

“We’re not even going to get back to positive fund balances by running these surpluses. It’s going to take many years of doing that,” Lucchetti said.

Strategic plan

The board also approved consulting services from Robert Madonia, a consultant from RJM Consulting Services to facilitate a five-year strategic long-range plan for District 210. Madonia said he was volunteering his services at no cost.

“I’m more than happy to do that and it’s at no cost, and it gives me pleasure to pay that forward,” he said.

Some of the services provided by his firm include training the board and administrative team to facilitate individual focus groups, develop a survey connected to focus areas and develop focus areas with the board.

Public comment

Tim Conway, president of the Lincoln-Way Education Association, the district’s teacher union, suggested during public comment that district officials assign a full-time compliance officer.

He said it was kind of inconceivable the district – given the size of its budget – doesn’t have anyone tracking and filing state and federal regulatory reports in a timely fashion. He said there have been missed deadlines and funds ending up where they shouldn’t have been.

“We cannot continue to be on the other side of state statutes. Ultimately, that will catch up with us,” Conway said.

13 take petitions for Joliet City Council election

By BOB OKON

bokon@shawmedia.com JOLIET – Joliet City Council seats are attracting strong interest both from potential candidates taking out petitions for the April 4 election and people looking to be appointed to a recent vacancy.

As of noon Thursday, 13 people had taken out petitions to run in the April 4 election for the three at-large council seats, including incumbents Jan Quillman and Michael Turk.

The third at-large council member, Jim McFarland, resigned this week as he prepares to move to Frankfort.

Mayor Bob O’Dekirk said he has heard from more than 20 people interested in the vacancy.

“I do hope to have the position filled by the next council meeting so we can vote on it,” O’Dekirk told the council at a meeting on Tuesday. The next regular council meeting is Oct. 4. When vacancies occur, the mayor recommends an appointment to the council for approval.

Candidates for the April 4 election were first able to pick up petitions for circulation on Tuesday at City Hall.

WHERE IT’S AT

• Relevant information • Marketing Solutions • Community Advocates

He also agreed with board member Joseph Kirkeeng’s previous suggestion of having the budget process beginning earlier, saying the district may need work done on a preliminary budget in January.

Kirkeeng said he wanted to echo Lucchetti’s recommendation.

“We had this like flurry of budget activity over the last 60 days. That should be an agenda item monthly,” he said.

Superintendent Scott Tingley noted in the treasurer’s report that for tax anticipation warrants, there is $20 million due by Oct. 30. He said $10 million has been paid and district officials anticipate paying the rest by Sept. 29.

He also said the district has been authorized for $20 million in borrowing.

At-large council elections sometimes draw large numbers of candidates because anyone in the city can run. The council also has five council districts, and candidates have to live in those districts to run. Those five seats are not up for election in April.

While the 13 potential candidates indicate strong interest in the council, not everyone who gets petitions brings them back to file for the ballot.

Petitions have been picked up by people with past experience running for office. They include: R. Dale Evans Sr., currently a member of the Joliet Township High School board; Diane M. Harris, who ran for mayor in 2011 and for other positions since then; and Roger W. Powell, who ran for a district seat in 2015.

Others who have taken out petitions include Raychel A. Wesley; James Lanham, Julie Branchaw, Alex Rodriguez, Nathaniel Romeo, Omar Walker and Larry Crawford.

Christian Egwunwoke was the 13th person to pick up petitions at the City Clerk’s office just before noon Tuesday, but said he has not decided whether he will run.

Needs of growing senior population to be met by affordable units

By MIKE MALLORY

mmallory@shawmedia.com CHANNAHON – The most recent census reports that 66 percent of senior renters in Will County are cost-burdened, meaning that they pay more than a third of their income on rent.

And in the next five years, the senior population in Channahon and Minooka is expected to grow by 21 percent.

These two statistics were relayed Thursday morning at a groundbreaking ceremony for St. Elizabeth Residences in Channahon by Illinois Housing Development Authority development officer Matt Rangel.

The numbers highlight Will County’s need for affordable senior housing.

That need is being addressed with the construction of a community for low-income seniors on land purchased by Catholic Charities from the Catholic Diocese of Joliet, across the street from St. Ann Catholic Church and near Channahon Village Hall. It is being built by Affordable Housing Developers LLC, with an estimated cost of $12 million.

The complex will include a mixture of one- and two-bedroom apartments in four three-story buildings. Each apartment will have its own attached one-car garage. There also will be a clubhouse with an apartment that will house a live-in manager. The first building is expected to open in March.

Catholic Charities Diocese of Joliet Executive Director Glenn Van Cura said the No. 1 priority when the organization looked at needs in the county was affordable housing for seniors. He said seniors are struggling between paying for mortgages, property taxes, food, medicine and other necessities. He said the research found that seniors are experiencing foreclosures of their homes.

“Imagine working all your life, raising a family, and you want to stay in your community,” Van Cura said. “But what happens is, ‘I don’t have enough money to stay in my own community.’

Well, St. Elizabeth Residences will be the answer for many.”

To help make the community a reality, the IHDA allocated affordable-housing tax credits to encourage private investment in affordable housing. Nonprofit developers of affordable housing can receive a tax credit worth half the value of the donation, Rangel said.

This program, created by the Illinois General Assembly in 2001, has been a part of the creation of preservation of

“We hope our elected officials in Springfield recognize the continued importance of this program,” Rangel said.

He also commended state Sen. Pat McGuire, D-Joliet, and state Rep. Larry Walsh Jr., D-Elwood, who spoke before him. Rangel said the IHDA cannot do

Joliet students learn about life in Africa

By FELIX SARVER

fsarver@shawmedia.com JOLIET – Fifth-grade students at Carl Sandburg Elementary School experienced in real life Thursday what they had been reading in a book that talks about life in the Sudan.

Their teachers had students engaged in several activities outside the school Thursday, where students had to gather water in jugs and balance them on their head, or help plants grow by watering them and pulling out weeds.

The activities were part of the students reading “A Long Walk to Water”

by Linda Sue Park and learning about Africa as part of their social studies unit.

“They’re really doing a nice job,” fifth-grade teacher Francie Ferguson said. “They’re empathizing. That’s what we’re trying to teach them: What these kids go through – a kind of simulation of what they have to do.”

Park’s book is about two 11-year-old children – one real and one fictional – living in Sudan, Africa. The activities based on the book were done to relate the experiences of the characters to real life, Ferguson said.

“Since [the students] are their age, they can completely relate to these children,” she said.

She said they also were activities that got the students moving.

Nya, one of the characters in “A Long Walk to Water,” spends eight hours a day walking to and from a pond to gather water to support her family.

Ferguson said she tells the students fetching water outside Sandburg to pic-

“I try to have them visualize what it would be like,” she said.

Students were split into several groups. One group went to get water at

a small pool and bring it back, another worked with plants, and another group put towels on their head to balance water.

Fifth-graders David Reynoso and Ashley Allen said they were feeling Nya’s struggles as they were either tired

or sweating.

“I was running so fast,” Allen said.

Ferguson said the students at Sandburg study different cultures and areas of the world. They next will learn about the Middle East, as well as South and Central America.

Troy District 30-C school board approves TIF agreement

By ANNA SCHIER

aschier@shawmedia.com SHOREWOOD – After being divided on the measure at its August meeting, the Troy District 30-C school board voted Wednesday to approve an intergovernmental agreement with the village of Shorewood concerning a possible tax increment financing district.

The board tabled the issue last month when the vote was split, 3-3.

On Wednesday, board members voted, 6-0, in favor of the agreement, according to Superintendent Todd Koehl.

Board President Mark Griglione was absent.

“It was a ‘take it or leave it’ situation,” board Secretary David Talari-

co, who voted against the item in August, said Thursday.

Talarico has been critical of the TIF district in the past.

A TIF district is an area in which any increase in tax base value due to development is returned to the district to generate more improvements.

Talarico said he met with Shorewood’s village attorney to discuss his concerns and was told that the outcome of the school board’s intergovernmental agreement vote would not alter the village’s course of action. Talarico also said he asked the attorney about increasing the revenue percentage the school district would receive from the TIF area, and was told that was not a part of the agreement where the village was open to adjustments.

“I’m still not real happy with the way Shorewood handled this process,” Talarico said.

The TIF district would run along Route 52, including the property about one block south and one block north of the roadway, from the Ford dealership to the Shorewood police station, Koehl has said. It also would extend south of the intersection of Routes 52 and 59 by a few blocks and encompass land along the DuPage River at Route 59.

Koehl has said the terms of the intergovernmental agreement dictate that teardowns within the TIF district be replaced, honor the state law that if there’s no development within the area in seven years then the TIF district is no longer valid, and state that the village will provide a percentage

of the area’s tax base increase to Troy as taxable funds. That percentage would start at 0 percent for the first five years of the TIF district and gradually grow as high as 30 percent for the final three years of the district’s 23-year lifespan.

The agreement could include Joliet Township High School District 204, in addition to Troy and the village.

Koehl said Thursday the agreement allows the school district to build a relationship with the village while ensuring Troy receives revenue from the TIF area.

At its meeting last week, the Shorewood Village Board passed a resolution addressing various administrative actions related to the process of establishing the TIF district.

Padilla said investigators still are working on a time line and building a case. Police have posted fliers around the TA Truck Stop/R-Place Restaurant in the Morris area, asking for anyone who may have seen Clifford Andersen or given him a ride between Aug. 22 and Aug. 29.

The flier states: “Have you seen?” followed by a photo of Andersen. The flier continues: “A Marine veteran, he [Andersen] usually wears some type of military baseball cap and frequently discusses assisting veterans. Andersen routinely visits truck stops in the area and plays gambling machines.”

Dewey’s 2007 Buick LaCrosse was located Aug. 29 at the TA Truck Stop/R-

when he was approached by Michael Lopez, 26, and Marcus A. Lopez, 19, Allbert said. The 30-year-old victim and the Lopez brothers are engaged in an ongoing dispute, Allbert said.

“Witnesses and surveillance video show the victim pushed them to the ground in self-defense and punches were thrown,” Allbert said. “Marcus Lopez ran back to the car to get a handgun and fired three

times.”

The rounds went across Jefferson Street and broke two front windows of Baba’s Famous Steak and Lemonade, 925 W. Jefferson St. Marcus Lopez allegedly was still holding the .22-caliber revolver when police arrived, and tossed it under a nearby car, Allbert said.

Andersen is being held at Bureau County Jail on a $750,000 bond. He is next scheduled to appear Oct. 13 in Putnam County Court.

Dewey was last seen Aug. 22 in Spring Valley. She was reported miss-

On Sept. 12, police discovered Dewey’s body in a shallow grave at a vacant home in Standard. Padilla said police were alerted to the location through an interview with a person who had knowledge about the case. The following day, Andersen, who lives three blocks away from where Dewey’s body was found, was arrested and charged with concealment of death.

During his first appearance in court, it was released he had wrapped Dewey’s body in a blanket and tied it up with rope and duct tape before burying it.

Andersen’s charges were later elevated during his first court appearance to concealment of a homicide death.

Josh Callanta of Carol Stream talks with other steampunk enthusiasts before entering a gala in Lockport on July 26, 2014. Lockport will again embrace the old-fashioned-yet-futuristic theme of steampunk this weekend through a series of events.

By FELIX SARVER

fsarver@shawmedia.com LOCKPORT – The city of Lockport will embrace the old-fashioned-yet-futuristic theme of steampunk this weekend through a series of events.

From Friday through Sunday, visitors can enjoy artist presentations, a music festival, high tea, food, shopping and other entertainment for Lockport’s Steampunk Weekend.

“If you’re looking for something different, come out,” Lockport Mayor Steven Streit said.

Steampunk – a science fiction take on the Victorian Era or the Industrial Revolution – has been used before in Lockport events. Streit said steampunk ties with the city in a “fun, playful way.”

The Steampunk Weekend represents the end of the city’s Summer Art Series.

From 5 to 6 p.m. Friday, the White Oak Library District will present the “Author and Crafter Thomas Willeford Afterhours Steampunk Kickoff” program, where Willeford will sell copies of his books, talk about his work and display his steampunk Iron Man suit.

The event will take place at the Lockport branch library, 121 E. Eighth St. Steampunk-themed events will be held throughout Saturday at the South Public Landing Lot, near the corner of Commerce and West Ninth streets, according to the Summer Art Series website.

At 10 a.m. will be the steampunk shopping and food court, followed by

If you go n WHAT: Steampunk Weekend n WHEN: 5 to 6 p.m. Friday; 10 a.m. Saturday; 1 p.m. Sunday n WHERE: South Public Landing Lot, corner of Commerce and West Ninth St., Lockport n KNOW MORE: For information, visit summerartseries.com/about-the-weekend the Dan Barth show at from 11 to 11:45 a.m. Willeford will present again from noon to 1 p.m., followed by the Dan Barth show from 2 to 3 p.m. and a juggler event at 3 p.m.

The Dan “Doc” Barth event includes a medicine show wagon, magic, ventriloquism and audience participation, according to the Summer Art Series website.

The music festival will be from 4 to 11 p.m. and include acts such as Libido Funk Circus, Steam Powered Giraffe and Candy Town.

Streit said people as far as New York, Miami and Des Moines, Iowa, have bought tickets to see the music festival.

There also will be a VIP gala at Embers Tap House, 933 S. State St. The gala event includes mingling with musicians, beer tasting, food and a mind reader act.

At 1 p.m. Sunday, a high tea event will be held at Embers Tap House and will include assorted tea sandwiches, mini scones, desserts, champagne and a harpist performance. The ticket deadline for the event was Wednesday, according to the event’s flier.

New community hall proposed for police department

The committee was presented with a proposal by Police Chief Terry Lemming to renovate the police department’s old roll call room into a community hall for public use.

The project, which would cost about $200,000, is part of the mayor’s plan to bring the police and the community it serves closer together, Lemming said.

With a new multipurpose room to be used for community events, “people will be able to come to the police station for a good reason,” he said.

Lockport gears up for Steampunk Weekend events

LOCKPORT – Some Lockport residents are still trying to get the city to change its mind about a decades-old ordinance that limits the size of recreational vehicles allowed to be parked on residential property.

About 30 residents attended the City Council’s Committee of the Whole meeting Wednesday to make their case that the ordinance be amended to accommodate larger vehicles.

The item was not on the agenda and had been discussed at a meeting in July after which the council decided that the ordinance would not be changed and compliance would be required by Nov. 1.

During the public comments portion of Wednesday’s meeting, a few residents spoke in favor of changing the ordinance, with many cheering them on and showing displeasure with some who are against any changes.

Dan Wrona, a former police officer with the Lockport Police Department, recommended the ordinance be changed to accommodate larger vehicles or a grandfather clause be added to exempt from compliance current owners who were previously unaware of the policy.

Having to pay for a storage facility would cause “undue hardship” for owners, he said.

Tom Pinn, who served on the city’s Zoning Board of Appeals for 18 years, spoke in favor of keeping the ordinance intact, adding it had been enforced in the past and the city must take into account all residents, not just RV owners.

Alderman Darren Deskin favored amending the ordinance as a compromise, but Mayor Steven Streit said that by allowing certain-sized RVs to be parked on residential property, the

city already had “a decent compromise.”

A letter was sent with residents’ water bills declaring Nov. 1 as the deadline for compliance.

The RV policy falls under zoning ordinances and the city is working on revamping its fine schedule for zoning violations, Deputy Police Chief Ron Huff said.

Currently the city only requires a $100 fine for a violation to be paid within 15 days of citation. The city is moving toward an escalation of fines policy as it moves toward adding zoning violations to its administrative adjudication process, Huff said.

Once the new policy is approved, a property owner not in compliance within seven days of the first notice will be required to pay a $100 fine within 10 days. Continued noncompliance would result in a second citation of $200 and, if needed, a summons to a hearing with an officer at City Hall, during which more fines may be added, Huff said.

Huff said that the city is not looking to raise revenues from fines but in achieving compliance.

“Our goal is to never issue a single citation,” he said

Man shot in leg in Joliet

By BRIAN STANLEY

bstanley@shawmedia.com JOLIET – A 28-year-old man was shot in the leg Wednesday in Joliet.

Gunfire at 4:30 p.m. brought officers to Fifth Avenue and Sherman Street where witnesses said a man had been struck and was being driven to Pres-

ence Saint Joseph Medical Center, Deputy Police Chief Tab Jensen said.

“The victim said he’d been walking in that area when a car drove by and shots were fired,” Jensen said. “He was not cooperative with investigators.”

The man’s injury was not life-threatening.

Police: New Lenox woman ordered drugs from Germany

By BRIAN STANLEY

bstanley@shawmedia.com NEW LENOX – A New Lenox woman and a Palos Heights man were arrested Wednesday after police alleged they received a package of ecstasy from overseas. Detective Sgt. Louis Alessandrini said authorities at John F. Kennedy airport in New York intercepted a suspicious package being sent from Germany and notified the Department of Homeland Security and the United States Postal Inspector. About 2:30 p.m. ,the package was delivered to Tori A. Smith, 19, in the 600 block of Columbia Drive, Alessandrini said. New Lenox

police then obtained a search warrant to enter the residence and found more than 100 grams of MDMA that had allegedly been inside the box.

“The box had been opened by Smith’s friend, Isaac M. Marrin, 21, and further investigation and interviews showed they’d ordered the ecstasy together,” Alessandrini said.

Marijuana and other drug paraphernalia also were found during the search, according to police.

Smith, and Marrin, of the 12500 block of Harold Drive in Palos Heights, were arrested on charges of participating in a calculated criminal drug conspiracy, drug trafficking and delivery of drugs.

LOCAL BRIEFS Crews battle fire in Goose Lake

GOOSE LAKE – Firefighters responded Thursday afternoon to a fire in the Goose Lake area. Firefighters were called about 5 p.m. to the 6000 block of Peart Court, which has a Morris address.

Upon arrival, crews found heavy smoke and fire coming from the home, Coal City Fire Department Lt. Nick Doerfler said.

Multiple crews were called to the scene in order to get water to fight the fire, as there are no fire hydrants in that area, Doerfler said.

Doerfler said the structure is a total loss, and crews were still putting out flames shortly before 6 p.m. It is believed one person was at the home when the fire started. The fire remains under investigation.

The closure is necessary to perform bridge repairs, according to a news release from IDOT. The structure will be closed until Friday, weather permitting, in order to complete the repairs.

IDOT recommends using the McDonough Street bridge to cross the Des Plaines River. The suggested detour will direct southbound Brandon Road traffic to go north on Route 6, east on McDonough Street to cross the river, south on Route 53 and west on Laraway Road to meet back with Brandon Road.

Those heading north on Brandon Road should take the reverse route.

Motorists can expect delays and should allow extra time for trips through this area, according to the news release.

Romeoville crosses million dollar mark in providing financial assistance

ROMEOVILLE – The village of Romeoville announced Thursday that financial assistance will be given again this year as a

credit on residents’ water bills.

The Financial Assistance Initiative was implemented in 2011 by the mayor and Village Board. The aggregate amount of relief to be provided to residents this year is about $114,000, according to a news release from the village. During the six-year period, more than $1.1 million has been returned to the residents of Romeoville through this initiative.

In October, homeowners will see a credit on their water bill. The refund will be credited to all single-family home customers living within the village’s boundaries.

Call 815-886-7212 for questions regarding the rebate.

HARRY B. HILL Dr. Harry B. Hill, D.D.S., a Joliet dentist since 1944, passed away peacefully in his sleep early Tuesday morning, Sept. 20, 2016. He was 95. Dr. Hill (“Doc”) was dedicated to taking care of his patients in the greater Joliet community for over 55 years and fostered a light-hearted and relaxed environment for patients and

office staff.

Dr. Hill was an avid outdoorsman and loved to hunt and fish, be it in the Wilmington area, where he owned a property, or on one of several trips to Mexico, Costa Rica, Kansas or the far north of Canada throughout the years. He enjoyed being down in the country, whether he was on the tractor mowing, building fences, planting trees or simply enjoying a cold beer. Never one to walk when he could drive, he relished driving through the country spotting birds and wildlife, or cursing the latest beaver dam, and usually exceeded the speed limit. Due to his rural upbringing and love of the outdoors, his family often joked that he never let dentistry interfere with his “farming.”

He was ever curious and enjoyed learning new things. Despite being a medical professional, he was fascinated by the world of business and financial markets and more recently, the technology revolution. His 1990s quip, “before I die I’m going to learn how to use a computer,” resulted in the first of many computers owned throughout his lifetime, and hours spent with his daughter exploring the nuanced difference between “Save” and “Save As”. His curiosity barely waned with age, as he continued to dabble on his iPhone and his wife’s iPad well into his nineties.

After retirement Dr. Hill and his wife of 52 years, Shirley, spent several winters on Marco Island with friends, and traveled to various areas in central America, Europe and Russia.

He played golf throughout much of his life and was a member of the Medicare Swingers league at Inwood Golf Course for many years.

However there was no place where Dr. Hill was more at home and in his element than at “The Lake,” a strip mine-turned-recreational-property owned jointly with the William B. Norton family of Morris. The Lake has been home to countless barbecues, campouts, swimming and boating parties and family gatherings throughout the years, as well as serving as home base for Dr. Hill and friends’

duck club and various hunting and fishing exploits.

Harry Bray Hill was born on Aug. 22, 1921, in Cass, West Virginia, to Grace (Barlow) and Harry B. Hill, a pharmacist and schoolteacher, respectively. He attended elementary school in Cass, followed by Green Bank High School in Pocahontas County, WV, and college at West Virginia University. After graduating college, he was accepted to the dental school at Northwestern University in Chicago, where he graduated D.D.S. in 1944.

Dr. Hill settled in Joliet in 1944 where he practiced dentistry, first in the Barber building at 68 N. Chicago Street, and later at 300 N. Hammes Avenue, until his retirement in July 2000. He was a retired member of the Will County Dental Society, Illinois State Dental Society and the American Dental Association.

Dr. Hill was a proud veteran, having served his country twice. First as a Second Lieutenant in the U.S. Army during World War II, and later as a Captain in the USAF with the 43rd Bomb Wing at Davis-Monthan AFB in Tucson, AZ, during the Korean War. Dr. Hill is preceded in death by parents Grace and Harry B. Hill Sr. of Joliet; and a brother, Asa Charles (A.C.) Hill of Wilton, Connecticut. He is survived by his wife, Shirley H. Hill of Joliet; two daughters, Deborah H. Staley of Woodstock and Kimberly B. Hill of New York, NY; a niece, Dana Lynn (J.P.) Beckham of Ashburn, VA; nephew, Scott (Lorrie) Hill, of Wilton, CT; and three grandchildren, Erin Staley of Los Angeles, Amber (Jason) Staley-Walters of Crystal Lake and Ashley Staley of Chicago. Dr. Hill would have met his first great-grandchild in November.

The Hill family wishes to thank the staff at Provena St. Joseph Medical Center in Joliet and Alden Estates of Shorewood for providing excellent care during Harry’s brief stay.

Though his family is deeply saddened by this loss, a celebration of Harry’s life will be held at the Carlson-Holmquist-Sayles Funeral Home & Crematory, 2320 Black Road, Saturday, Sept. 24 at 11:30 a.m. Rev. Dr. Craig M. Herr officiating.

Memorials to Honor Flight Network (www. honorflight.org) or Ducks Unlimited (www. ducks.org) in Dr. Harry B. Hill, D.D.S., name will be appreciated. Inurnment will be held at Abraham Lincoln National Cemetery at a later date. Visitation will be held Saturday, from 10 until services at 11:30 a.m.

Emanuel details mentoring, police in crime speech

By SOPHIA TAREEN The Associated Press

CHICAGO – Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel announced a $36 million mentoring initiative for thousands of youths from high-crime neighborhoods and asked for the community’s help Thursday in a major speech outlining his plan to fight and prevent violence in the nation’s third-largest city.

Along with recent police reforms and statewide legislation, he highlighted a new public-private partnership to help an estimated 7,200 youths over the next three years. The invitation-only speech came as the city has seen a spike in crime and his police department is under an ongoing U.S. Department of Justice investigation.

“Every one of us has a role to play in rebuilding the vital partnership between our police and the community,” Emanuel said in his speech at Malcolm X College, on Chicago’s near West Side.

“So today I am calling on all Chicagoans to join in a comprehensive plan to confront gun violence. No matter who you are, what your background is, where you live in Chicago, this fight belongs to all of us.”

Outside of the college, a couple of dozen protesters stood quietly as Emanuel was about to speak. Some held signs calling for a civilian police accountability council they want created to investigate police misconduct cases.

Emanuel, in his second term as mayor, has been trying to rebuild trust in his leadership, particularly after the 2014 death of Laquan McDonald, a black teenager shot 16 times by a white

AP file photo

Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel, seen here in April, said Thursday that fighting crime “requires a partnership between the police and the community.” police officer. The officer was charged with murder, but only after a judge ordered the public release of the graphic squad car video last year. Circulation of the video prompted frequent protests, allegations of a cover-up and repeated calls for Emanuel to step down.

The Justice Department has since launched a systemic probe of department practices. In recent days, Emanuel’s administration has announced plans to add almost 1,000 police officers, as well as an expansion of the use of body cameras and mandatory de-escalation training for all officers.

His speech also touched on new technology, including gunshot-tracing cameras; gun legislation; partnering with federal authorities; and the need

for more neighborhood resources.

Emanuel also asked Chicagoans for help. Calling respect “a two-way street,” he said there’s no pass for people to taunt police or for officers “belittling” residents who need help.

“Fighting crime requires a partnership between the police and the community,” he said. “And we all know that this partnership has been tested in Chicago. It is a problem that has festered in this city for decades. The shooting of Laquan McDonald brought it to the breaking point.”

Emanuel recapped changes instituted by his administration, including abolishing the agency that handles police investigations and pitching a new system for reviewing police miscon-

duct and department audits.

Chicago has seen a dramatic rise in the number of shootings and homicides this year. In August alone, there were 90 homicides, marking the first time in two decades there have been that many in a single month. Overall, the city has recorded more than 500 homicides this year – higher than all of 2015 – and is on pace to climb past the 600-homicide mark for the first time since 2003.

The city’s image has also come up on the presidential campaign trail, with Republican nominee Donald Trump suggesting Thursday that Chicago is more violent than Afghanistan. Trump also endorsed a stop-and-frisk policing method for the city, which a federal judge said New York City used unconstitutionally because of its overwhelming impact on minority residents.

Emanuel has said the violence spike was new, noting the number of homicides in 2014 was among the lowest on record. That year closed with about 400 murders. Police Superintendent Eddie Johnson said he asked for additional officers and that Emanuel “delivered.”

The plan, which will start in January 2017, is to add 516 new officers, 92 field-training officers, 200 detectives, 112 sergeants and 50 lieutenants. The changes will increase the number of sworn officers from about 12,500 to about 13,500.

The effort is expected to cost about $134 million. What’s missing is how the cash-strapped city will fund the officers.

Emanuel declined to detail where the money will come from. Already his tenure has seen a property tax hike, and the council approved new water and sewer tax increases earlier this month.

Trump urged to keep his cool during debate

By JULIE PACE

The Associated Press WASHINGTON – Donald Trump’s advisers are urging him to keep his cool during next week’s presidential debate and resist attempts by Hillary Clinton to provoke him with questions about his business record, wealth or controversial comments about minorities.

The focus underscores the campaign’s concern that too many Americans still don’t believe the Republican has the temperament to be president, which could be a difference-maker in a close race with Clinton.

“He can’t let Hillary get under his skin,” said Newt Gingrich, the former House speaker and Trump adviser.

Gingrich is part of a rotating cast of politicians and policy experts traveling with Trump on his private plane for midflight debate preparations, according to Republicans familiar with the preparations.

Others include retired Lt. Gen. Mike Flynn, who is advising Trump on national security, and economist Peter Navarro.

New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, a loyal Trump supporter, has been helping on issues such as the federal government’s relationship with the states.

Trump has eschewed the kind of mock debate setups candidates traditionally use to get ready for the high-pressure events and hasn’t tapped anyone to play Clinton in his prep sessions. But aides said he is studying written briefing material on domestic and international issues and is also talking through topics with advisers.

“He’s a formidable, well-prepared candidate with a formidable, well-prepared team,” said Navarro, a professor at the University of California, Irvine.

Some Trump aides are more concerned about Trump’s dis-

In particular, Trump advisers are trying to steel him for the likelihood that Clinton will aim to get a rise out of him on live TV in front of what both campaigns expect to be a record-setting audience.

The Republican has long lashed out at critics in deeply personal ways, especially after a perceived slight. Clinton has raised that habit as evidence that Trump is too thin-skinned to be trusted with nuclear weapons and other life-anddeath decisions that cross a president’s desk.

Voters seem to share Clinton’s concerns. According to a new AP-GfK poll, just 30 percent of registered voters said they consider Trump at least somewhat qualified to be president. Only 24 percent consider him at least somewhat civil, while half consider him at least somewhat racist.

It’s unclear how aggressive Clinton will be in trying to bait Trump during Monday night’s faceoff at New York’s Hofstra University. On the campaign trail and in TV ads, she’s targeted Trump’s criticism of a

U.S.-born judge of Mexican descent, his feud with an American-Muslim family whose son was killed in Iraq while serving in the Army and his mocking of a disabled reporter. She’s also challenged his business success and suggested he isn’t releasing his taxes to the public because he’s not as wealthy as he contends.

“We have no doubt that his handlers are prevailing on him to arrive at the debate more subdued and to try to suppress his true self,” said Brian Fallon, Clinton’s spokesman. “Clearly his advisers agree that that is not a very presidential image.”

Trump backers said the real estate mogul is prepared to stay steady no matter what Clinton throws at him.

“We’re going to see the debate prep making sure that she’s not going to be able to pull him somehow off the message,” said Rep. Chris Collins, a New York Republican who is one of Trump’s most loyal backers in Congress. He spoke shortly after joining other supportive lawmakers for a meeting Thursday with Trump political director Jim Murphy.

Collins said the Republican nominee understands the importance of presenting “President Trump to the American public.”

Orland Township voters asked if they would secede from Cook County

ORLAND TOWNSHIP – Voters in Orland Township will consider a referendum in November to leave Cook County and join adjacent Will County.

The Daily Southtown reported that the referendum is an advisory question, which means the south suburban Chicago township will remain in Cook County no matter the result of the vote.

Township Supervisor Paul O’Grady said it is an issue he has heard about regularly from constituents – specifically, after Cook County raised sales taxes. He said residents “feel they are not getting their money’s worth.”

The township includes the municipalities of Orland Hills, Orland Park and Tinley Park.

State Sen. Michael Hastings, an Orland Hills Democrat, said secession has been discussed before and failed, and that he

Hunters asked to report suspected deer virus cases

SPRINGFIELD – The Illinois Department of Natural Resources is asking hunters to be on the lookout for possible cases of a virus that can cause die-offs of whitetailed deer.

So far this year, there have been 53 suspected cases of epizootic hemorrhagic disease, which is transmitted by midges that hatch from muddy areas along lakes and rivers.

The worst year for the disease in Illinois was 2012, when more than 2,000 cases were reported across 76 counties.

This year’s cases are mostly clustered in east-central and northeast Illinois.

Wildlife officials are especially interested in reports of sick or recently dead animals from which staff might be able to collect samples to test. They are asking hunters and landowners to report the number, sex, approximate age and specific locations of affected deer.

killing “perpetrated unnecessarily either while resisting an attempt by the person killed to commit a crime, or after such attempt shall have failed.”

If convicted, Shelby could face a minimum of four years in prison.

Tulsa Mayor Dewey Bartlett said police worked quickly to provide Kunzweiler with the information he needed to decide whether to charge the officer.

“I appreciate their efforts, as well as the district attorney’s usual thorough evaluation of the rules of law for which we are all accountable,” Bartlett said in a written statement.

“These are important steps to ensure that justice and accountability prevails.

“We will continue to be transparent and ensure the system carries out its responsibility to provide justice.”

Shelby, who joined the Tulsa Police Department in December 2011, was en route to a domestic violence call when she encountered Crutcher’s vehicle abandoned on a city street, straddling the center line. Shelby did not activate her patrol car’s dashboard camera, so no footage exists of what first happened between the two before other officers arrived.

TULSA, Okla. – Prosecutors charged a white Oklahoma police officer with first-degree manslaughter Thursday, less than a week after she fatally shot an unarmed black man on a city street and just days after police released graphic videos, saying in court documents that the officer “reacted unreasonably.”

Tulsa County District Attorney Steve Kunzweiler charged Tulsa officer Betty Shelby in the Sept. 16 shooting death of 40-year-old Terence Crutcher. Kunzweiler said arrangements were being made for Shelby’s surrender.

Shelby “reacted unreasonably by escalating the situation from a confrontation with Mr. Crutcher, who was not responding to verbal commands and was walking away from her with his hands held up, becoming emotionally involved to the point that she overreacted,” according to an affidavit filed with the charge.

The swift action in Tulsa stood in contrast to Charlotte, North Carolina, where police refused under mounting pressure Thursday to release video of the shooting of another black man this week and the National Guard was called in to try to a head off a third

does not offer a clear view of when Shelby fired the single shot that killed Crutcher. Her attorney has said Crutcher was not following police commands and that Shelby opened fire when the man began to reach into his SUV window.

But Crutcher’s family immediately discounted that claim, saying the father of four posed no threat to the officers. They also pointed to an enlarged photo from police footage that appears to show Crutcher’s window was rolled up. And police said Crutcher did not have gun on him or in his vehicle.

An affidavit filed Thursday said Shelby told police homicide investigators that “she was in fear for her life and thought Mr. Crutcher was going to kill her. When she began following Mr. Crutcher to the vehicle with her duty weapon drawn, she was yelling for him to stop and get on his knees repeatedly.”

Crutcher was wearing “baggy clothes” but that Shelby “was not able to see any weapons or bulges indicating a weapon was present,” the affidavit states.

Sandack deserves mercy, not your judgement VIEWS Scott Reeder SPRINGFIELD – Sometimes smart people do really stupid things.

And sometimes good people do things that they wish they hadn’t.

None of us is perfect.

I’ve learned that in the 30 years I’ve been in the news business. When people make mistakes, if a public trust isn’t violated, sometimes mercy rather than judgement is the best response.

That’s why my heart goes out to former state Rep. Ron Sandack. He’s a good man who got caught up in something awful.

The Downers Grove Republican apparently is the victim of an extortion ring based in the Philippines.

According to a Downers Grove police report, Sandack had a conversation on social media with a woman and later they communicated over a video conference. The woman threatened to make a video of the conversation public unless he wired her money.

He did. But she wanted more. And then more.

Faced with this blackmail, Sandack resigned from his seat in the Illinois Legislature on July 26 citing “cyber security” issues. And this past week, police released a partially redacted report explaining what transpired.

I’ve known Sandack for several years. I’ve found him to be a bright, articulate and effective public servant.

His political career now is over.

But that isn’t keeping a chorus of reporters, lawmakers and other political insiders from shaking their heads and clucking their tongues.

In this era of “gotcha journalism” it doesn’t matter that public trust was not violated.

Reporters saw a salacious story and went with it.

I spoke with Sandack briefly on the phone on Monday.

He told me it was a rough time for him and his family.

After all, his wife and kids didn’t do anything to deserve this kind of derision but they are hurting. For that matter, Sandack didn’t break any laws or fail to fulfill his obligations as a lawmaker.

He just showed poor personal judgment.

In a prepared statement Sandack said: “I was the target of an international crime ring targeting high-profile individuals luring them to engage in inappropriate online conversations to extort them and I fell for their bait hook, line and sinker. But nonetheless, I was a victim. Poor decisions on my part enabled me to be a victim.”

He’s owned up to his mistake.

But I found his final words in the statement haunting: “I’m human. I made a mistake for which I am remorseful and ashamed; especially because I have hurt my family … and there is no greater self-inflicted wound than that.”

Isn’t that the truth?

THE FIRST

AMENDMENT

Accomplishments bode well for success in D- 202 Here we are in our fifth full week of the new school year, and so far, we’re off to a great start.

This is not an easy task, and is worthy of some celebration under any circumstance. It’s even more worthy of recognition given the many moving parts involved in getting 28,000 students to and from school each day; teaching and supporting them for six to eight (and sometimes more) hours a day; keeping 32 buildings in good shape; and administering a system with 3,100 employees.

But along with the “logistics” of starting a new term, we have already seen several major accomplishments that bode well for success the rest of the year, thanks to our terrific students, staff, administration and families.

For example, two major educational initiatives are up and running: • The Full Day Kindergarten pilot program is operating in our 17 elementary schools. We will continue to monitor this program and recommend later this year plans for next school year to the Board of Education.

• We have implemented Spanish in our middle schools and a new science curriculum

GUEST VIEW Lane Abrell that aligns with the state’s new middle school science learning standards.

Both of these changes – most especially the Full Day Kindergarten pilot – have been high priorities for several years for the Board of Education and our community.

We have also been able to celebrate several early stories of our academic success including a record-high number of AP Scholars; record-high scores on the ACT college entrance exam; and three more National Merit Scholarship semifinalists.

These key achievements show that our work over the last decade to make our curriculum more rigorous and improve our support system for all students has really taken hold and is paying dividends.

They also speak very clearly about the incredible dedication and hard work of our teachers and students to meet academic expectations even as the bar keeps rising and targets keep moving.

And last but certainly

not least, we are also almost finished installing artificial turf and state-of-the-art digital scoreboards at Plainfield High School – Central Campus and Plainfield South High School (the same work will be done at Plainfield East and North high schools next year).

This major project will allow us to use our athletic stadiums more effectively and cost-efficiently, both with our own students and the community.

We have already started talking to our partners at the Plainfield Park District and other community youth athletic organizations about ways that they can possibly take advantage of this great new resource. We also plan to make the fields available to other community athletic organizations.

District 202 is truly a great place to live, learn and work.

We are proud of our role in the lives of our students, staff, families and the community.

Together, we will continue to prepare learners for the future.

Shook, Plainfield Central again down Plainfield North in 3 sets

By KAITLYN JASNICA

kjasnica@shawmedia.com PLAINFIELD – Life is good with Ashley Shook as your setter.

That could have been the motto for Plainfield Central’s volleyball team in its Southwest Prairie home match Thursday against Plainfield North.

The senior had 19 assists while adding 12 kills, two blocks, two aces and three digs.

In addition, the Wildcats passed well

and Annie Obradovich served rockets to help lift Central to a 25-15, 13-25, 25-15 win over rival Plainfield North.

“The passing was really good, so it gave me those opportunities to get those kills, and I try to do that so that I can get the other hitters one-on-one,” Shook said. “They weren’t jumping a lot with me, so I was able to get those kills. The passing was so good that I had enough time to see the court on the other side. I was able to put the ball down when it needed to happen.”

In the third game, the Wildcats (129, 6-0) needed to put the ball away.

When setters run 5-1 offenses, it’s impressive if they get five kills. Shook had more kills than anyone on the other side of the net. That performance is exactly why her coach, Erik Vogt, said she is the type of setter that people coach once in a lifetime.

One player cannot win the game, however. When her team needed her most, a senior defensive specialist also stepped up.

In the third game, North (6-10) led 6-5 when Obradovich stepped to the line.

“I knew that we were struggling after the second match, so I knew my teammates needed some energy,” Obradovich said. “I was just trying to support everyone and get us all together. I did my best to get my serves in, and I did. I think it helped us bring everyone together and give us energy.”

line and Beasley headed away another threat. Shortly after Indian Kyle Sparks was thwarted, East’s Carlos Giron suffered a similar fate on a long free kick.

The Bengals connected in the 57th minute after both sides fought over a loose ball near the top of the box. Godinez, in his varsity debut, put one just inside the far post for the equalizer.

But it didn’t remain tied for long as Koenig got a free kick in the 60th minute and hit a liner that sailed inside the far post for his ninth goal in eight matches to put Minooka up for good.

“On the first goal, I saw that the goalie was out of position and I placed it back post,” Koenig said. “On the second goal, they tried to step real close but I hit it back post again and the goalie couldn’t get to it. It’s a great feeling coming off of a loss to win this big game after losing to them earlier in the season.

“We kept putting the pressure on them and that’s how we got our chances. We’ve been training hard in practice. The thing I like the most about our team is that even though I’m a freshman, they all accept me and take care of me and they have my back.”

Shortly after Minooka regained the lead, East threatened as a hard shot

by Oscar Cruz was deflected and the subsequent corner kick by Giron was punched away by Ooms. After Godinez was denied and went just wide, Indian

Four aces and 12 consecutive serves from Obradovich helped Central to a 17-6 lead. The gym could feel it; that serving run ended the game.

Strong passing and defense in the third also helped lift the Wildcats. Junior libero Katie Shook made four digs, while Obradovich added five. Again in the rivalry match, freshman Taylor Landfair led the court with 14 kills.

On the other side of the net, Plainfield North put up a good fight.

“No matter what sport or who’s the better team or who’s higher in conference, the Plainfield North vs. Plainfield Central game is going to be competitive,” Vogt said. “It’s always a battle in all our sports. We didn’t anticipate anything different.”

Junior outside hitter Maddy Ryley led the Tigers with nine kills, all from aggressive swings. She helped start the strong North run in Game 2, and seniors Aly Stumpf (seven kills) and Taylor Tressel (five kills) followed her lead, while junior libero Faith Tressel had six digs.

“Every time we play Central, it’s a

There is so much intensity in this game.

The first time we played them, we went to three. It was kind of a repeat here. The difference was that in this second set, there was a certain feel to it. We have to

learn how to find that each game.”

The story was the same for North this game as the last. The Tigers have talented but largely inexperienced players.

Junior Maddie Dieter is the only returning varsity player, but many of

Erik Lakota lined one off of Ramiro Tovar and Matt Schofield had two good tries but Giron cleared a corner and a shot was thwarted.

The Indians threatened in the 14th minute when Sparks sent a pass to Koenig, but Griffin Mitchell cleared it off the line. After Ooms stopped a charging Kader Camara, Sparks saw a try cleared by Tovar and Koenig had a corner deflected by Giron before a Koenig to Sparks effort was denied by Colin Nicoski.

Minooka moved in front in the 31st minute when Koenig connected on a long free kick that came as the Bengals were trying to form a wall. After Jared Avalos had a shot cleared by Gabriel Tovar, Godinez got free but Ooms raced out to shut down the attempt.

“We came here looking for revenge after they beat us,” Sparks said. “Getting this conference win was nice since they’re a very talented team. We have a nice group and we’re trying to mold together better. Our team has really come along nicely and we’re only going to get better from here on out.

“I like how everyone works hard at practice and in games. We have younger guys coming in and they’re not afraid to play and we trust everyone on our team. We only have four seniors so we’re trying to build off of our younger guys.” the North losses were extremely close games. The Tigers just need more varsity experience to gain that mental toughness.

So what will help that happen?

“You have to grind it out,” North coach Tracey Marshall said. “They have to be put in those types of situations and they have to be forced to play up. The maturity comes with being in those situations and knowing how to play up.

“Game by game, as long as you’re learning from something and taking something away each match, that’s an improvement. We’re losing close games.

We’re pushing to three. It’s not like we’re rolling over. First it’s inch-by-inch, then it’s mile-by-mile.”

For the Wildcats, the two three-set wins over North have them closer to a third consecutive conference title.

“North always has been an emotional game for us,” senior middle hitter Megan Brock said. “It’s always fun. It really does help us in conference to get this win. We are 2-0 against them and 6-0 in the conference. It boosts our confidence and it gives us better seeding, too.

“We have to keep pushing forward and keep reaching toward our goals. Before every game, we remind ourselves that this is for conference. We can’t stop.”

PLAINFIELD – Minooka’s boys soccer team had plenty of extra incentive heading into Thursday’s Southwest Prairie Conference match at Plainfield East.

The Indians hoped to bounce back from a loss to Plainfield North two days earlier while avenging an early-season setback to the Bengals and handing them their initial SPC defeat.

Thanks to a pair of heads-up free kicks from freshman Patrick Koenig and fine efforts from defenders Nick Beasley, Jacob Westerhoff, Timothy Doody and Austin Wielgosz along with keeper Grant Ooms, Minooka struck first and last to capture a key 2-1 victory.

“Revenge is big,” Indians coach Chris Brolley said. “You know that it’s going to be a tough game because that’s how it is in our conference. But once you’re able to see somebody, you kind of know what you’re into. We were in that game and the score (5-2) doesn’t really dictate how close it was. East is a good team that’s talented and we were aware of that.

“I told the backline that they picked us up at the end and played really well.

In the first half we did some things that I didn’t like. I wanted us to release the

ball and get it up in the middle and they listened. They remind me of teams we’ve had in the past that have camaraderie and root for everybody. Their skill level is amazing and they’ll do anything to help the team.”

The Bengals ( 9-3-2, 3-1) lost a player to a red card in Tuesday’s win on penalties over Oswego. And although the effects of three matches per week recently has taken its toll in injuries, coach Cosimo Patano gave the Indians (7-3, 3-1) all of the credit for the victory.

“We kind of gave them a freebie on their first goal and their second goal was another free kick,” Patano said.

“We just brought Abel Godinez up for his first match today. He has some pace and I really like him and this should give him some confidence. I thought that we had a nice run of the play but they found the first goal.

“Going three games a week has been kind of tough since we have guys who are trying to stay healthy and we were coming off of a game against Oswego where we played 100 minutes so our legs were heavy. If we have everyone here and healthy, we’re exciting to watch. They’re a fun group and I enjoy coaching them.”

USF hopes challenging start pays off

By CURT HERRON

cherron@shawmedia.com JOLIET – The University of St. Francis football team figured to have its hands full by opening its season with games at Saint Xavier, Wisconsin-Platteville and Missouri Baptist.

After dropping the first two games of that stretch, the Fighting Saints improved to 1-2 after claiming a 38-14 victory in St. Louis last Saturday.

While that was not how coach Joe Curry and his squad were looking to kick things off, the hope is that the tough opening schedule pays dividends as the year goes on.

And the time for that to begin to happen is Saturday when the Saints open their home schedule with Robert Morris at Memorial Stadium. Over the next three weeks, USF also will entertain Concordia of Michigan, St. Ambrose and Davenport “I thought we played good as a team in the first week, just not quite well enough,” Curry said. “In our second week, we took a step back a little bit, but then last week I think we took a couple of steps forward. I just think that the big test for us is to continue to get better and to worry about ourselves.

“That’s why you have a league schedule and a non-league schedule and you tend to play your non-league schedule early enough to get yourself ready to play hard games within your league. I don’t know if there’s anybody who plays a tougher non-league schedule than us, with the exception of probably Robert Morris, who lost to North Central and Marian.

“I hope that the early-season schedule does us some good as the season goes along since it put us through some adversity, and it was good to see how our kids responded. You always learn things through adversity. It’s easy to be upbeat and feeling great about yourself when everything is going well. But if you hit some adversity early on, that helps you in the season.”

Playing the type of schedule that St. Francis does, nothing is going to come easily, and that’s OK as far as its coach is concerned.

“In football and in life, you go through some ups and downs,” Curry said. “And just because you go through some downs and get some ups again doesn’t mean that you’re never going to hit the downs again. That’s why I keep telling them to get better every week. If we keep getting better every week, hopefully that puts us in the situation at the end of the season to be playing for something. And that’s really all that you can ask for in our league.

BELOW RIGHT: St. Francis defensive end Alex Zlomie, a Wilmington graduate, makes a tackle at Wisconsin-Platteville.

“Hopefully, our guys keep that in mind and we play well this week. All that we can do is play well this week, we can’t worry about what happened against Wisconsin-Platteville. I told our guys that the first two weeks are over. You have to learn from it but you can’t dwell on it since if you look back at what happened, the good teams that we have coming up will beat us, too.”

Robert Morris also is 1-2 after falling, 45-7, at top-ranked Marian last Saturday. Concordia is 2-1, St. Ambrose 1-2 and first-year program Davenport is off to a 2-2 start.

Curry is optimistic about his team’s

chances in the four consecutive home games after seeing encouraging signs at Missouri Baptist.

“I thought we had spurts in all three phases where we played dominating football,” Curry said. “Offensively, we did some great things, with 14- and 16play drives early on. For three quarters, we dominated them on defense.

And we also did some great things on special teams. For the first time, we put all three phases into a game and saw what happened.

“I think the guys are excited. They were getting used to the bus rides but now they don’t have to travel on a Fri-

day and do all of the things that go into a road trip, which were distractions for us. This week, we’ve been able to practice here, can go home and sleep in our own beds and we get to play here on Saturday, and that’s always an advantage.”

Regardless of what type of record the Saints have, Curry knows that his group will battle.

“When we played Platteville and Saint X, nobody quit,” Curry said. “We were down by 14 points versus Saint Xavier, but that’s a trademark of our team, we’re not going to quit, we’re going to keep battling. One of our program mottos is go 1-0. It doesn’t matter what happened in the past or what’s going to happen in the future. All that we can control is the present.

“We’re going to battle and I like that about our team. That says a lot about our leadership and about our veterans who have been through it. If that continues, you might not win every game, but you’re going to have a fighting shot.”

PREP FOOTBALL: WEEK 5 PREVIEW CAPSULES

JOLIET CATHOLIC AT MARIAN CENTRAL Kickoff: 7:30 p.m. Friday Last year: JCA 41, Marian Central 3; JCA 47, Marian Central 15 (playoffs) Records: JCA 0-4, 0-2 in East Suburban Catholic; Marian Central 2-2, 0-2 AP rankings: Marian Central is honorable mention in Class 5A. The skinny: JCA will be going against one of their own as Marian Central is coached by former Hilltoppers all-stater Mike Maloney.

JCA lost to Notre Dame, 34-17, last week while the Hurricanes, after dropping a narrow 14-10 decision to Benet in Week 3, were blanked, 450, by Marist. If the Hilltoppers can keep Marian Central from making big plays, they could achieve their first victory.

The pick: JCA BROTHER RICE AT PROVIDENCE Kickoff: 7:30 p.m. Friday Last year: Brother Rice 31, Providence 24 Records: Brother Rice 4-0, 0-0 in Chicago Catholic Blue; Providence 2-2, 0-1 AP rankings: Brother Rice is No. 4 in 8A. The skinny: Review Brother Rice’s game-bygame – 31-7 victory over Marist, 61-44 over Crete-Monee, 45-6 over Aurora Christian and 42-7 over Montini – and you get the idea how difficult a task Providence is facing. The Celtics, however, will be battling for their playoff lives the rest of the season, and their offense, led by quarterback Jared Drake and tailback Richie Warfield, has been productive.

The pick: Brother Rice OSWEGO EAST AT PLAINFIELD NORTH Kickoff: 7 p.m. Friday Last year: Plainfield North 28, Oswego East 9 Records: Oswego East 4-0, 4-0 in Southwest

Joliet Catholic’s Ke’Von Johnson finds some running room during last week’s game against Notre Dame. The Hilltoppers travel to Woodstock on Friday night to face Marian Central.

Prairie; Plainfield North 3-1, 3-1 AP rankings: Oswego East is honorable mention in 8A. The skinny: Oswego East might be the regarded the class of the Southwest Prairie at this juncture, but Plainfield North has an opportunity to change that thinking. The Tigers, who did not play well in a 12-0 loss to Oswego in Week 2, played very well last week in beating Minooka, 61-22. Both teams have strong ground games, so the defenses will be challenged. Turnovers could be huge.

The pick: Plainfield North MINOOKA AT PLAINFIELD CENTRAL Kickoff: 7 p.m. Friday Last year: Minooka 41, Plainfield Central 14 Records: Minooka 2-2, Plainfield Central 0-4 The skinny: Plainfield Central’s new turf field will be christened, and the Wildcats are on the verge of getting their first victory since late in the 2012 season. They suffered two- and three-point losses the last two weeks. Minooka is coming off a 61-22 loss to Plainfield North, so the question is how well the Indians will recover. Central features a good running game, and Minooka relies on the passing of John Carnagio.

The pick: Minooka OSWEGO AT ROMEOVILLE Kickoff: 7 p.m. Friday Last year: Oswego 50, Romeoville 14 Records: Oswego 4-0, 4-0 in Southwest Prairie; Romeoville 0-4, 0-4 The skinny: Romeoville showed some fight last week in a 21-16 loss to Joliet West after a couple of thumpings in succession. However, the Spartans’ offense will operate against an Oswego defense that has allowed 12 points all season. Plainfield East scored 17 on the Panthers last week, but that included two long intercep-

tion returns for touchdowns.

The pick: Oswego LINCOLN-WAY WEST AT HOMEWOOD-FLOSSMOOR Kickoff: 7:30 p.m. Friday Last year: Did not meet.

Records: Lincoln-Way West 4-0, 2-0 in SouthWest Suburban; H-F 4-0, 2-0 AP rankings: Lincoln-Way West is No. 7 in 7A, H-F No. 2 in 8A. The skinny: Several area teams have had, and will have, the opportunity to see how they stack up against one of the best teams in the state in fast and talented Homewood-Flossmoor. This is Lincoln-Way’s turn. H-F last week beat Lockport, 53-24, and the previous week the Vikings slipped past Lincoln-Way East, 35-30. The good news is West is expected to regain the services of regular quarterback Cal Pohrte.

The pick: H-F LINCOLN-WAY CENTRAL AT THORNRIDGE Kickoff: 7:30 p.m. Friday Last year: Lincoln-Way Central 22, Thornridge 6 Records: Lincoln-Way Central 3-1, 1-1 in SouthWest Suburban; Thornridge 4-0, 1-0 AP rankings: Thornridge is honorable mention in 5A. The skinny: Thornridge is in an unfamiliar situation, having won four straight to open the season. The flip side is the Falcons have played four opponents with a combined 2-15 record. Lincoln-Way Central, which is more battle-tested, rebounded from a tight loss to Lockport in Week 3 with a 44-19 win over Thornwood last week.

The pick: Lincoln-Way Central LOCKPORT AT ANDREW Kickoff: 7:15 p.m. Friday

Last year: Did not meet.

Records: Lockport 3-1, 1-1 in SouthWest Suburban; Andrew 0-4, 0-2 The skinny: There are not many games on Lockport’s schedule where you can say the Porters should win by a decisive margin, but this is one. Andrew has been struggling, and Lockport is making a push toward securing a playoff spot.

The Porters have a huge date with Bolingbrook coming up next week.

The pick: Lockport YORKVILLE AT MORRIS Kickoff: 7:30 p.m. Friday Last year: Yorkville 14, Morris 0 Records: Yorkville 1-3, 0-1 in Northern Illinois Big 12 East; Morris 3-1, 0-0 AP rankings: Morris is No. 9 in 5A. The skinny: Morris is coming off a disappointing 21-14 loss at Rochelle and will be looking to clean up mistakes in its conference opener. The Redskins, who are 3-0 at home, have not forgotten that Yorkville shut them out last season.

They would like to gain revenge.

The pick: Morris WILMINGTON AT SENECA Kickoff: 7:15 p.m. Friday Last year: Wilmington 47, Seneca 7 Records: Wilmington 4-0, 2-0 in Interstate Eight Small; Seneca 3-1, 1-1 AP rankings: Wilmington is No. 2 in 3A. The skinny: Wilmington coach Jeff Reents will earn his 200th victory in 23 years at the helm if the Wildcats can knock off Seneca and secure their 44th straight I-8 Small victory. The Irish, meanwhile, are bidding to make the playoffs this season. Wilmington’s Owen Weaver leads the area in rushing and leads the Wildcats in tackles.

The pick: Wilmington

JOLIET CENTRAL AT PLAINFIELD SOUTH Kickoff: 7 p.m. Friday Last year: Did not meet.

Records: Joliet Central 1-3, 1-3 in Southwest Prairie; Plainfield South 2-2, 2-2 The skinny: Joliet Central got back to work this week after celebrating the end of its 57-game losing streak, achieved Saturday in a thrilling 38-35 win over Plainfield Central. JoJo McNair had a huge game and will be needed in a similar manner here if Central’s offense is to produce results against a rugged South defense.

PLAINFIELD EAST AT JOLIET WEST Kickoff: 6:30 p.m. Friday Last year: Did not meet.

Records: Plainfield East 2-2, 2-2 in Southwest Prairie; Joliet West 2-2, 2-2 The skinny: This one has all the makings of being a tight defensive struggle. The East defense has returned three interceptions for touchdowns this season, two last week against Oswego. The Bengals led, 17-7, in the second half before falling, 27-17. West’s offense finished with 241 rushing yards and 192 passing yards in a 21-16 win over Romeoville last week. The Tigers’ defense has been consistently effective.

Roark tops 200 innings, Auto Dealer and just keeps rolling Periodically over the course of this Major League Baseball season, we have discussed how remarkable Tanner Roark’s season has been.

The Wilmington graduate is a mainstay in the Washington Nationals’ starting rotation, which means he will be toiling in prime time in the upcoming postseason.

Roark is 15-9 with a 2.70 ERA and would have had a better record than that had the Nationals’ offense given him more consistent support. For example, he lost to Jose Fernandez and Miami, 1-0, earlier this week, allowing only a sixth-inning solo home run to Giancarlo Stanton.

In Roark’s last three starts, he has thrown 20 innings and allowed two earned runs, yet is only 1-1 in that span. The right-hander has pitched 2001/3 innings and allowed 166 hits and 68 walks while striking out 162. Opponents are hitting .230 against him.

Roark is among the leaders in all of MLB in outings of at least seven innings while allowing zero or one run.

Of course, winning is all that matters to Roark. As he told MLB. com when asked after the Miami game about going over 200 innings for the season and pitching well again, “It’s good and all, but we lost. I’m pretty mad about that. The only thing that matters is winning and losing.

Tonight, we lost. Stanton hit a pretty good pitch. It was a fastball down and away. He got it. Hats off to him.”

Roark bounced between the bullpen and the rotation last season.

Manager Dusty Baker reportedly had a conversation with Roark in spring training where Roark told him he wanted to start. Baker said he would give Roark a chance to be in the rotation, and he has delivered.

“He has been nothing but consistent,” Baker told MLB.com after the Miami game. “He has a low ERA. Boy, he has been outstanding. He has taken it and run with it.”

The Joliet area’s other major league starter, Atlanta right-hander Mike Foltynewicz (Minooka), has not pitched since Sept. 12, when he was hit on the left calf by a line drive.

He threw a bullpen session of about 25 fastballs earlier this week and planned to throw a longer bullpen, mixing in all his pitches. If all goes well, he hopes to make at least one more start before the season concludes.

Foltynewicz has started 21 games for the Braves and is 8-5 with a 4.41 ERA. In 1181/3 innings, he has allowed 123 hits and 32 walks and has struck out 106.

VIEWS Dick Goss Meanwhile, Cincinnati left-handed reliever Tony Cingrani (Lincoln-Way Central) threw a shutout inning against the Cubs on Wednesday night, but otherwise has had some rough outings of late. He is 2-5 overall with a 4.20 ERA and has 17 saves in 22 opportunities. In 62 appearances, he has worked 60 innings and allowed 52 hits and 35 walks while striking out 46.

QUIGLEY IN PLAYOFFS

Guard Allie Quigley (Joliet Catholic) and the Chicago Sky earned the No 4 seed in the WNBA playoffs and open their bid with a noon home game Sunday against the Atlanta Heat that will be televised on ESPN2.

The Heat beat the Seattle Dream, 9485, Wednesday, earning the right to visit the Sky. The winner of Sunday’s game will advance to a best-of-five semifinal series against the Minnesota Lynx.

The loser will be out.

Quigley and her teammates will need to step up their game, as 2015 WNBA MVP Ellena Delle Donne recently had surgery on her right thumb and will not play.

Quigley appeared in all 34 regular-season games and averaged 17.8 minutes, 9.5 points, 0.9 rebounds, 1.6 assists and 0.5 steals. She shot .471 from the floor, .366 from 3-point range and .895 from the free-throw line.

NFL EARLY RETURNS

In two games for the Indianapolis Colts, rookie running back Josh Ferguson (JCA) has rushed three times for a net of 5 yards but also has caught seven passes, tied for second on the team, for 55 yards. Fellow rookie teammate Antonio Morrison (Bolingbrook), a reserve linebacker, has made one solo tackle.

Tight end Coby Fleener (JCA) has caught three passes for 35 yards in his first two games with the New Orleans Saints. Perhaps his breakout game is coming Monday night when the Saints take on Atlanta.

Meanwhile, Denver reserve running back Kapri Bibbs (Plainfield North) has one carry for 7 yards and one reception for 6 yards.

By Diane Krieger Spivak Sciatica. It’s a name that’s been around for generations, but many people aren’t aware of what it really is.

What it’s not is a disease. It’s actually a symptom of compression of the sciatic nerve, also called a “pinched nerve” of the lower spine. Also referred to as neuropathy, or neuralgia, sciatica is pain that originates in the low back or buttock that travels into one or both legs, according to Spine Universe. The pain can be dull, achy, sharp, pins and needles or similar to electric shock, burning, numbness and tingling.

Doctors of Chiropractic (DC) medicine regularly treat sciatica. Proper diagnosis involving a review of the patient’smedicalhistoryandaphysicalandneurological examination is important since sciatica can result from a number of disorders, the most common being a herniated or slipped disc, which causes pressure on a nerve root. Other causes are piriformis syndrome, spinal

stenosis and spondylolisthesis.

Once the cause of the sciatica is determined, a chiropractor can begin specific treatment.

Chiropractic care, which is non-invasive (nonsurgical) and drug-free, may include several different treatments such as ice/cold therapies, ultrasound, TENS and spinal adjustments (spinal manipulation), says Spine Universe.

Ice/Cold therapy reduces inflammation and helps to control sciatic pain. Ultrasound is gentle heat created by sound waves that penetrates deep into tissues, increasing circulation and reducing muscle spasms, cramping, swelling, stiffness, and pain. TENS unit (transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation) is a muscle stimulating machine through which electrical current controls acute pain and reduces muscle spasms.

Adjustments, which are the core of chiropractic care, are manipulations that free restricted movement of the spine and help to restore misaligned vertebral bodies to their proper position in the spinal column, says Spine Universe. Spinal adjustment helps to reduce nerve irritability responsible for causing inflammation, muscle spasm, pain, and other symptoms related to sciatica.

JOLIET – Joliet Central football coach Brett Boyter was named the Chicago Bears High School Coach of the Week for Week 4.

The head coach since 2012, Boyter led the Steelmen to a 38-35 win over Plainfield Central on Saturday, snapping the school’s a 57-game losing streak dating back to 2010. The capacity crowd of more 2,000 saw the Steelmen win the game in the final 29 seconds.

Boyter will be invited to the Bears vs. 49ers game Dec. 4 and will join his fellow 2016 “Coach of the Week” honorees for an on-field photo during pregame. He also will receive a framed certificate signed by Bears coach John Fox and have the opportunity to visit Halas Hall for lunch and practice viewing.

The Bears “Coach of the Week” program is in its 21st season. The program honors outstanding Illinois high school coaches who develop players’ football skills and knowledge, character, leadership, discipline and teamwork abilities.

Other criteria considered include unique coaching methodology, school and community support, volunteerism and, most importantly, contributions to players’ long-term success on and off the field.

The Bears make a $1,500 contribution to the football program at each winning coach’s school. In addition to “Coach of the Week” winners attending the Bears vs. 49ers game Dec. 4, all eight IHSA state champion teams will be recognized at that game.

dedication and commitment to the students of the school district.

Most recently, DeGroot organized the Sept. 17 Troy Middle School Cross Country Invitational, the largest middle school cross country event in Illinois, which involved more than 2,500 runners from 62 teams across the state.

DeGroot also supervises some 68 coaches and 83 sponsors of activities and clubs in the district that is sometimes referred to as a “mini-high school” for its variety of clubs, activities and sports offered to the students at its five elementary schools and its intermediate and middle schools.

The daughter of longtime Joliet Township coach Ed Lewandowski, DeGroot began as a physical education teacher at Troy nine years ago and was promoted to AD two years later.

Bears running back Jordan Howard (24) tries to break away from Philadelphia Eagles defensive back Ron Brooks (33) on Monday during the second half at Soldier Field.

BEARS NOTES

Howard feeling confident; Jeffery misses practice

By KEVIN FISHBAIN

kfishbain@profootballweekly.com LAKE FOREST– Questions this week at Halas Hall focused on a Bears run game that is not where it needs to be through two weeks. Brian Hoyer at quarterback should help force the play-calling to the ‘run-first’ mantra we expected, and the offense could utilize its rookie running back more often to help move the football.

Jordan Howard got his first NFL snaps on Monday night, making the most of his three carries, as he ran for 22 yards. With Ka’Deem Carey sidelined due to a hamstring injury this week, Howard figures to get more touches in Dallas. And he’s certainly more accustomed to playing than watching. “[Monday night] definitely uplifting because the first game, it was kind of tough for me because I didn’t play but it definitely humbles you,” Howard said Thursday. “In college, I’m used to being the guy. That was the first time not playing in a game that I was healthy for since my freshman year.”

The former UAB and Indiana back said this is the healthiest he has been “in a long time.”

“I can definitely tell at practice that I feel like I have more speed and I’m getting better conditioning,” he said.

Langford is likely still going to be the lead back considering his experience in pass protection and as a receiver, but Howard showed the coaches that he can step in if the Bears can sustain drives and emphasize the ground game.

“I was happy with the way [Howard]

played in the three carries,” Dowell Loggains said. “I think he’s had a really good week of practice. He looked faster than I thought he did in preseason and played with a little bit more urgency.

He’ll continue to get urgency.”

Linebacker Sean Lee leads a Cowboys run defense that is allowing 4.8 yards per carry. They may stack the box to force Hoyer to make plays, but there should be running lanes behind an O-line with two Pro Bowl guards.

“I feel like I handled the opportunity they gave me pretty well,” Howard said. “I just wanted to show them that when the moment comes, that I’ll be ready for it.”

Jeffery sidelined: Alshon Jeffery, who was limited Wednesday with a knee injury, did not practice Thursday.

“It’s just something we’re monitoring,” John Fox said. “We’ll just see what tomorrow brings.”

Jeffery had not missed a practice since the preseason. He has nine catches for 201 yards through two games.

Injury report: Jay Cutler, Eddie Goldman, Danny Trevathan, Adrian Amos, Bryce Callahan and Ka’Deem Carey remained out of practice. Kyle Fuller, Bobby Massie, Tracy Porter, Josh Sitton, Chris Prosinski, Will Sutton and Willie Young were limited. Sherrick McManis was a full participant after being limited on Wednesday.

Roster update: The Bears promoted quarterback Matt Barkley to the active roster and placed Lamarr Houston on injured reserve. Barkley will be Hoyer’s backup as long as Cutler is out with his sprained thumb. Fullback Paul Lasike signed to the practice squad.

Joliet Antique Auto Club open to new members

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

JOLIET – At 32, Marvin Minarich of Morris is one of the youngest members of the Joliet Antique Auto Club.

Minarich joined last year because he loves classic cars – his Morris-based business, Marvin’s Motor City, restores classic cars – and wanted to meet people in the area that did, too. The club meets at 7 p.m. the second Tuesday of the month at Stone City Post 2199.

That said, Minarich feels his generation will never be as interested in cars from the 1930s and 1940s as older club members are. Minarich himself prefers cars from the 1960s, as do many of Minarich’s clients in his age bracket. It was an era of high-performance cars so reasonably priced even an 18-year-old could buy a new one.

The older cars, Minarich added, aren’t practical.

“You can’t drive a 1927 Model A Ford to take your wife out to dinner,” Minarich said. “You can’t drive it on the highway. They’re fun, but it’s almost like driving a regular tractor.

But a car from the ’50s and ’60s, even though it’s on the older side, is still drivable. That’s what’s cool about it.

They have reliability and safety. Obviously not as safe as newer cars, but safer than the cars from the ’20s and ’30s.”

Don Meyer of Minooka, president of the Joliet Antique Car Club, also likes muscle cars from the 1960s, simply because he was a 1960s teen, but it’s not an exclusive like. Meyer said he has a small collection of antique cars, which range from the 1920s into the 1970s.

“I think it’s becoming a lost hobby, with everyone into the computer age,” Meyer said.

The automobile industry classifies any car older than 25 years as an antique, Meyer said. Club members own cars predating the 1920s, but some also own cars built in the ’90s.

“Obviously we like to bring younger folks onto the scene,” Meyer said.

“But if someone drives a new car out of the showroom – we’re not into that stuff.”

Club activities revolve around monthly meetings, driving tours to destinations up to an hour away, picnics and participation in cruise nights. The club began in 1971 and some founding members still belong,

Elaine Honiotes talks with Art DeLorenzo as he sits on a 1929 Ford Model A on Wednesday during the Joliet Antique Auto Club’s “Cruising for the Vets” event hosted at VFW Post 2199.

Meyer said. Two club members joined at age 16 and stayed through the decades.

One founding member is Andy Honiotes of Joliet, who also belongs to the Joliet Region Model A Restorers Club. The Model A club was formed a month before the Joliet Antique Club.

Because it’s a chapter of a larger organization, membership was restricted to Model As, Honiotes said.

The Joliet Antique Auto Club was founded to accommodate owners of other models.

Honiotes agreed with Minarich that some antique cars are clumsy (“They’re like driving big lawn mowers”) to handle. But they’re also tinkering-friendly and they certainly turn heads, especially when a line of 10 putz down the road.

“They do require more attention and they don’t have all the comforts and abilities of modern cars,” Honiotes said. “With that are pre-1940, you need two hands on the steering wheel at all times. You can’t drive faster than 45 miles per hour. And the brak-

Honiotes still receives enormous pleasure from them.

“You’re driving at a slower pace,” Honiotes said. “You generally take

country roads instead of the highway.

You sit back and see the cows and windmills and farms. You’re not in a hurry.”

Frank “Butch” Bruntjen of Lockport, a founding member who no longer belongs to the Joliet Antique Auto Club, recalled the car shows and flea markets members held each year to raise money for social activities, such as Christmas parties and summer cookouts.

When it comes to antique cars, Bruntjen, who said he owns four, prefers an emphasis on fun, not competition.

“The restorations weren’t as high quality as they are now,” Bruntjen said. “I could take a car apart, put it back together and go for a ride. As the hobby evolved, people got more particular about what their cars looked like. They got into judging and stuff.

That kind of ruined everything. People were after the trophies and $1,000 paint jobs instead of the enjoyment. It wasn’t where you fixed the car in your garage and took it down the road.”

WILMINGTON – Midewin National Tallgrass Prairie is one of several organizations spotlighted in a new documentary about the history of northeastern Illinois. The video is tied to a historical mural that was unveiled Sept. 10 at Goose Lake Prairie State Natural Area.

The 28-foot mural was painted by local artist Ray Grossi. It stands along the north wall of the auditorium inside the Gunnar A. Peterson Visitor’s Center. Grossi painted seven panels, each depicting a specific period from the ice age to present day Goose Lake.

The panels begin with images of woolly mammoths and prehistoric people, and they evolve into a series that shows progress in the area, from log cabins to river barges to the Dresden Generating Station.

Grossi also incorporated the area’s first European settlers, Louis Joliet and Father Jacques Marquette, development of the Illinois and Michigan Canal and more. For a full description of what is painted in each mural panel, see http://shawurl.com/2ucp.

The second panel of the mural cele-

brates the bison that roamed the area up until the 1830s.

A small herd of bison was introduced at Midewin in October 2015 as part of a 20-year experiment. The herd will help in restoring the landscape to native tall grass prairie and provide a diverse habit for birds and wildlife.

Interns with Joliet Junior College interviewed Midewin Rangeland Management specialist Kelly Gutknecht and Midewin archaeologist Joe Wheeler for the video at the Ironbridge Trailhead at Midewin on July 14.

Chuck Johnson with Goose Lake Prairie Partners coordinated the project. He arranged interviews for the video, which also includes sources such as Michelle Micetich with the Carbon Hill School Museum (www.ccpld.org/ museum.htm), Ken Sereno with the Grundy County Historical Society and Museum (www.grundycountymuseum.org/about.html) and others.

Troy 30-C band students attend camps Several of Troy 30-C’s band students participated in summer camps this year, including one who attended two camps.

Alexander MacGregor, a seventh grade Troy Middle School student this year, attended both the Eastern Illinois University Junior Band Camp and the Music for All Summer Symposium at Ball State University for tuba, making first chair in both camps.

Attending the Illinois Summer Youth Music Camp at the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign campus were Kathryn Epling for trombone; Olivia Eldred and Desmond Walker for flute; Hannah Eldred for oboe; Emma Cartelli for French horn; Layne Barry and Amelia Dubs for clarinet; and J.T. Perella for saxophone.

Troy students who attended the Illinois State University Junior High Band Camp were Paola Lozada for clarinet; Claire Kranz and Analese Martinez for clarinet; Julianna Crompton for French horn; and Tyler Barnes and Abigail Athern for cornet.

Jenna Smith attended Dr. Cate’s Flute Camp in Montgomery; Molly

Huntington attended Music for All Summer Symposium at Ball State University for saxophone; Mitchell Lucas attended the University of Wisconsin, Madison Band Camp for bass clarinet; and Gabe Lozada attended the Phantom Regiment Drum and Bugle Corps Band Camp in Rockford.

Troy Band Director Jennifer Carlton said summer band camps are beneficial for the students, and some even offer precollege courses with teachers who are professors at the university.

Most of the students received financial scholarships from the Troy Band Boosters to pay the camps’ costs. The boosters also pay for guest instructors to work with band students during the school year, help offset the costs of band trips, help maintain uniforms and occasionally donate instruments.

Boosters President Nicki Lozada said the public can help the Troy band by contributing to its fundraisers, such as purchasing spirit wear and buying tickets for its annual spaghetti dinner, by visiting www.troybandboosters.org.

Depression can affect cognitive skills Dear Dr. K: I suffer from depression. My doctor told me depression can cause cognitive impairment. Antidepressants improve my mood – can they help improve my thinking skills as well?

Dear Reader: Depression is more than long bouts of intense sadness. People who suffer from depression also often experience a loss of energy and interest in things they once enjoyed. Depression also can change your ability to think. It can impair your attention and memory, as well as your information processing and decision-making skills. It can affect your ability to adapt your goals and strategies to changing situations. And it can affect executive functioning, the ability to take all the steps to get something done.

It’s hard to answer your question without knowing whether you feel your depression has caused thinking problems. That is, your doctor has told you depression can affect thinking in some people – but are you one of those people? I’m guessing you are, since you asked the question. So I did some homework.

I spoke to my colleague James Cartreine, an instructor in psychiatry at Harvard Medical School. He noted medications can provide some relief of classic depression symptoms.

But less is known about whether they can improve cognitive impairment related to depression.

Recently, researchers attempted to answer this question as part of a larger study on depression treatment. Their results were published in the journal The Lancet.

The researchers recruited more than 1,000 people with depression who were not taking medication. They then were randomly assigned to take one of three antidepressant drugs for eight weeks. The drugs were escitalopram (Lexapro), sertraline (Zoloft) or venlafaxine-XR (Effexor-XR). The participants went through extensive cognitive testing before and after treatment.

SUDOKU

ASK DOCTOR K Anthony L. Komaroff Of these patients, 95 percent showed no improvement on any of the cognitive impairments. And none of the three drugs was better than the others at improving cognitive symptoms. In other words, none of the medications helped improve thinking skills.

There are some limitations to this study.

We don’t know whether the participants had cognitive impairments before they developed depression. And the treatment period was short, only eight weeks.

Still, the results were not that surprising.

Different parts and processes of the brain are responsible for cognitive and emotional functioning. What’s more, antidepressant medications are not designed to treat cognitive impairment. They’re designed to improve a person’s mood, and the ability to appreciate things and to have fun – qualities temporarily lost in many people with depression.

If antidepressants are unlikely to help with thinking problems that can accompany depression, it’s worth looking to non-drug solutions. Problem-solving treatment, for example, can teach people how to improve their problem-solving skills. And cognitive behavioral therapy can train people to recognize and challenge distorted thinking patterns. Another approach is cognitive remediation therapy, which uses practice drills to improve memory and executive function.

If you are having thinking problems, talk with your primary care doctor or psychiatrist about one of these options.

Tell your husband’s sister she won’t be getting any more money unless she pays back what she has already “borrowed.” Your sister-in-law probably won’t like you for it, so be prepared to stand your ground and don’t be surprised.

Dear Abby: I noticed a very attractive woman coming out of the library. She was wearing a soft, feminine skirt. I wanted to compliment her, so I said, “I love your skirt – it looks so pretty.” She said, “Thank you. You made my day.”

We had a great conversation for several minutes, after which we went our separate ways. It felt good to know my compliment made her feel pretty. Do most women appreciate compliments about their clothing? I wouldn’t want to make a woman feel uncomfortable. But it brightens my day when I can compliment someone. – Larry In

a recent divorcee who has started dating again. I have been seeing this guy – also divorced – for a few months, and he recently told me he loves me. There’s definitely a mutual attraction, but I’m not ready for love again, which we’ve discussed in great detail.

When I ask him why he loves me, he can’t answer specifically. His usual reply is something along the lines of, “I just do.” I can’t help but think maybe he doesn’t really love me if he can’t explain why. Is our relationship moving too fast? – New To This In Idaho Dear New To This: Take your time and continue getting to know this man. Do not let yourself be rushed into any commitment for which you are not ready. Divorce can be painful and leave one or both partners with a lack of self-esteem.

Because he seems unable to put his feelings into words, instead of asking him why he loves you, let him demonstrate the depth of his love for you through his actions.

Dear Abby: My husband’s 67-year-old sister recently borrowed a large sum of money, but my husband told her not to worry about paying it back. They both receive Social Security benefits, but her payments are substantially larger.

She supports only herself. His check supports us both.

The problem is for the past few months she has been borrowing money she promises to pay back, but when the time comes, instead of repaying it she asks for more money. We can’t afford it, but he can’t seem to tell his big sister no, and it’s causing problems in our marriage.

I love my husband dearly, but I’m beginning to resent his sister for taking more money from us each month, and him for giving it to her.

FRIDAY HOROSCOPE

By EUGENIA LAST

Newspaper Enterprise Association TODAY – Be careful how you handle professional matters and partnerships this year. It will be easy to make assumptions, but very difficult to take back what you say or do. A secretive, methodical approach to situations will protect you from criticism and complaints.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) – Look for changes that will allow you to explore new territory, learn more about the people around you and improve your chance to get ahead. Romance is encouraged.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) – Your biggest gain will come from putting your original and

innovative ideas into play. A unique change at home will improve your assets and relationship with a special someone.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) – Communicating from your heart will have a far greater effect than being evasive or refusing to admit a problem exists. Facing facts will help resolve issues so you can move forward.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) – Keep a safe distance from anyone talking big and offering the impossible. Focus inward on self-improvement and looking and feeling your best.

Romance will improve your personal life.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) – Listen, evaluate and consider your options. Don’t feel pressured to get involved in someone else’s plans.

Keep in mind you should take care of personal

business before committing to help others.

PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) – Fix up your home and do whatever it takes to please the people you live with. Offering an improved entertainment space, helping out more or showing greater affection will pay off.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) – Don’t share your feelings if it won’t help you get what you want. Keep the peace, bide your time and offer incentives that will attract the help necessary to reach your goals.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) – A brief trip or conference will spark your interest in something you’ve never done before. Explore new territory. Romance looks promising and will improve your life.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) – Get down to

basics and consider the dreams you haven’t had time to fulfill. No one can do the work for you. Do what makes you happy.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) – Moderation will be required if you want to avoid a difficult financial situation. Someone will be critical if you make unnecessary changes without alerting the affected parties.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) – You can bring about positive change that will raise your standard of living or bring greater joy to your personal life and relationships. Travel is favored, but overspending isn’t.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) – Make a change that will update your look. Being current will help you gain the respect and support you need to turn your plans into a reality.

SATURDAY HOROSCOPE

By EUGENIA LAST

Newspaper Enterprise Association TODAY – You’ll have to make adjustments to the way you live if you want to feel comfortable and at peace in your surroundings. Size up what’s happening and address personal issues head on. Reject the people and situations that are costing you emotionally and financially.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) – Emotions will escalate when dealing with relationship issues. A short trip or visit to a friend or relative who can shed light on your situation will do you good.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) – Taking brief trips and sharing your feelings with a loved one will

lead to positive changes, good plans and a better home environment. Make a commitment and put your plans in motion.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) – Changes at home will be met with rejection if you do things without getting the go-ahead to proceed first.

Prepare and present what you want tactfully.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) – How you present yourself and your abilities will make a difference in the way others treat you. Focus on building a stellar reputation. Love is on the rise.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) – Learn from the mistakes made by others. Refrain from doling out cash to help someone else when it’s in your best interest to put money behind improving your quality of life.

PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) – Love is highlighted, so focus on important relationships.

Don’t be afraid to do things differently or to try something new. Your enthusiasm will inspire others to join you.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) – Force is not the answer. If someone tries to bully you, step back and rethink your next move. Unpredictable people only will deter you from living your dream.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) – Control changes taking place at home. You must do your part, stay involved and be willing to compromise to keep the peace and stay friendly with everyone.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) – Steer clear of unpredictable situations and people who are inconsistent or are trying to get something for

nothing. It’s up to you to look for opportunities instead of waiting for them to happen.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) – Emotions will escalate in a certain situation, causing you to take on too much, exaggerate or do something you’ll regret. Say little and concentrate on physical attention and praise.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) – Keep your plans a secret.

Get everything together and prepare a flawless presentation before you share it with anyone.

Integrate a healthy diet, sleep and exercise routine into your life.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) – Helping others will make you feel good, but don’t go overboard. It’s better to offer your time, expertise and good advice, not your hard-earned cash.

Desmond Tutu (who can play bridge) said, “Hope is being able to see that there is light despite all of the darkness.”

Occasionally, when your partner has overbid badly, you seem to be in a dark, hopeless contract. Then, you should try to find a layout of the opposing cards that will permit you to succeed.

In today’s deal, South is in three no-trump. West kicks off with fourth-highest from his spade suit, and East puts up the jack. What should declarer do? Did West have a more-effective opening lead?

Over North’s takeout double, South’s jump to three no-trump promised 13-15 points with preferably at least two spade stoppers.

South starts with only four top tricks: two spades (given trick one) and two clubs. He can establish three heart and three diamond winners, but that requires knocking out both of those aces, which must rest in the West hand, given his opening bid. If South takes the first trick and plays, say, a diamond, West can snatch the trick and continue with the spade king to set up his suit while he still has the heart ace as an entry.

Declarer’s only chance is to play low from his hand at trick one, hoping that the spades are 6-1, not 5-2.

Suppose East shifts to a club. South wins on the board and drives out the diamond ace. West continues clubs, but declarer ducks that trick, takes the third club, and dislodges the heart ace. He has nine tricks to cash.

West’s killing lead is the spade king, which would swallow his partner’s jack and leave him on lead to continue with the spade 10 should South play low.
