with Joliet council member

By MIKE MALLORY

mmallory@shawmedia.com JOLIET – A real estate broker pleaded guilty Wednesday to misdemeanor disorderly conduct in an incident in which he hit Joliet City Council member Larry Hug. Special Prosecutor Dave Neal said Thursday that Mark D. Koenig, 46, of Joliet, entered a guilty plea and was ordered to pay a fine and court costs totaling $500.

Koenig also was placed on six months of court supervision and ordered to have no offensive contact with Hug. Neal said Koenig completed a 10-hour anger management course.

The charge was filed Oct. 13, six months after the incident that led to Koenig’s arrest. He initially was arrested on a charge of misdemeanor battery one week after the incident, which occurred in a beer garden area at the Double J Sports Bar on Essing-

ton Road in Joliet.

The Will County State’s Attorney’s Office referred the case to a special prosecutor because a County Board member and county employee were witnesses to the incident.

Security video from the bar showed Koenig hitting Hug with an open hand after what appeared to be an argument between the two men. Sitting at the same table were County Board member Annette Parker and her husband, Brian Parker, a county employee.

Another person at the bar that night, Carlos Tinoco of Channahon, told The Herald-News that Hug had made insulting remarks at the bar.

Tinoco said that Hug used a racial slur against him, made insulting remarks about Channahon mayors, made what sounded like a threat, and insulted the Marines before he was hit that night. Hug has denied Tinoco’s account of what happened.

Police: Joliet woman fatally stabbed in Chicago

CHICAGO – A Joliet woman died after being stabbed Tuesday in Chicago.

At 6:11 a.m., police and paramedics were sent to a residence in the 1300 block of West 108th Place and found a 49-year-old woman lying on the floor with a small puncture wound to her upper left chest, according to the department’s Office of News Affairs.

Renee M. Davis was taken to Advocate Christ Hospital, where she was pronounced dead at 7:19 a.m., according to the Cook County Medical Examiner’s Office.

Police reports said the victim was “highly intoxicated,” and officers did not observe any signs of a struggle.

An autopsy showed Davis died from a “sharp force injury” to her chest, and her death was ruled a homicide, according to the medical examiner’s office.

Witnesses “were being uncooperative,” but the investigation was ongoing Thursday, police said.

D-210 superintendent proposes a 3rd party monitor potential fraud

By FELIX SARVER

fsarver@shawmedia.com NEW LENOX – The Lincoln-Way School District 210 superintendent pitched the idea of a “nonpartisan third party” to investigate allegations of fraud or inappropriate activity at the district in light of recent audit findings.

Superintendent Scott Tingley said at Thursday’s board meeting the district needs to put procedures in place to limit fraud risks after discussions with administrators and reviews of the audit report findings from Wermer, Rogers, Doran and Ruzon.

The accounting firm’s 2015-16 district audit report was unanimously approved by the board.

In a Nov. 15 management letter, the firm stated the district did not have any formal practices for identifying and monitoring fraud risks.

Tingley mentioned how Chicago Public Schools has an Office of the Inspector General and proposed a procedure where employees who suspect or have witnessed fraud or inappropriate activity can call a third party – not affiliated with the district or the board’s attorney – to conduct an investigation. Findings then would be brought to the board.

“It’s something we’re going to work on and develop. I’m going to bring it back to the board, but it could certainly help with, I believe, some of the findings of lack of fraud prevention or detection, and it could at least be a first step moving forward,” Tingley said.

The audit report approved Thursday identi-

fied many “opportunities for improvement” and listed district officials’ responses to the auditors’ recommendations. For the recommendation regarding fraud risks, the district said the process of strengthening internal controls and identifying fraud risk factors has begun.

“The district’s director of finance [Kelly Luzzo] has obtained an understanding of all business office functions and the key players in each of them,” according to the management letter.

“From there, she has implemented some changes to existing procedures in order to strengthen internal controls.”

Board member Joseph Kirkeeng asked after the presentation on the audit “where the accountability is created.”

Tingley said he has met with administrators and board members and discussed having Luzzo, two board members and himself meet on a monthly basis before reporting back on progress on the audit recommendations.

“Nothing was new to us in the audit, but it’s imperative that we follow through, and procedures are put in place and continue to be documented, and we show progress,” he said.

Board member Christopher Lucchetti said that progress should be an agenda item every board meeting, and a master list should be created for the audit findings and progress on improvements.

“We monitor each one of those for progress because we don’t want to have these repeated,” he said.

Lucchetti also recommended the district’s finance and building committee review the audit.

American Girl Fashion Show set this weekend

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

JOLIET – Goodbye, American Girl Fashion Show.

For 19 years, Easterseals Joliet Region has brought this showcase of historical and contemporary children’s fashion to the community and raised more than $250,000 to benefit kids with disabilities.

But after almost two decades of offering the fashion show as a fundraising event, American Girl has decided to streamline the show and hold it only at American Girl retail locations to support its partner children’s hospitals, said Deb Strahanoski, development manager at Easterseals.

“It’s an event that’s going to be missed,” Strahanoski said.

Through the years, it’s been everything from a nice afternoon out for grandmothers and granddaughters to the setting for birthday parties, Strahanoski said. This year’s event has produced the most ticket sales since the recession, Strahanoski said. One show – 4 p.m. Saturday – is sold out.

“We’re well over 700 tickets [total] sold,” Strahanoski said.

Strahanoski said she “already has her thinking cap on” to devise ways – maybe another event or more generous donors – to compensate for the loss of the $15,000 to $20,000 each American Girl Fashion Show generates for Easterseals after expenses.

“I will have to find it somewhere.

It’s not something we can let go,” Strahanoski said. “We need those funds to continue our programming for children, and we develop more and more programming every year.”

For instance, Easterseals’ Autism Diagnostic Clinic is very popular, Strahanoski said. It has a full staff, which includes a pediatrician able to evaluate children from birth to high school on a full range of disorders on the autism spectrum.

Easterseals began its fiscal year in September, so Strahanoski has time to develop ideas.

“We have to really explore and

In the meantime, the show must go on.

Origins and beyond

Kristi Mulvey, executive director of resource development at Joliet Junior College, first brought the

American Girl Fashion Show to Joliet. Mulvey worked in Easterseals’ development office at the time, Strahanoski said.

Since then, the number of dolls American Girl produces has increased dramatically, which also expanded the types and amount of fashion to be modeled. Teresa Sum-

However, Summers’ main role is model coordinator. This year’s show requires 81 models from the Joliet area who can wear size 6 and size 10 outfits, and Summers ensures she has enough girls.

Rialto board hashes out funding dilemma

By BOB OKON bokon@shawmedia.com JOLIET – The Rialto Square Theatre board tried to sort out what’s gone wrong and how to make it right this week, as it faced the prospect of the city denying the annual stipend the theater depends on each year.

“This outrage at the last minute is disingenuous,” board member Mary Beth Gannon said at Wednesday’s meeting, where she defended herself against critics who questioned how she could advise the City Council to deny the $500,000 the Rialto is seeking.

Gannon said the board “should have seen this coming” and prepared itself for a cutback in city funding.

The uncertainty of city funding became evident months ago, when Mayor Bob O’Dekirk and some council members said they were reluctant to send more money to the theater. However, the city never gave a definite no, and still has not.

But the city budget does not include Rialto funding yet, and the council expects to vote on it Dec. 6.

“All we’ve been is good partners. All of a sudden, it comes back to us.

The fate of the theater falls on us. That’s ludicrous.”

Bob O’Dekirk Joliet mayor

“This is not last minute,” Rialto board Chairman Dan Vera said in response to the characterization that the theater waited too long to seek the funding.

Vera said the Rialto presentation made to the City Council at a Nov. 10 budget meeting was what was recommended by O’Dekirk and City Manager Jim Hock when he approached them about funding.

“We were following the process. It wasn’t 11th hour,” Vera said.

The Rialto board also argued over

what the city wants.

O’Dekirk was not at the meeting, but he was at a ceremony immediately afterward, when a newly restored Rialto marquee was lit.

The mayor said the city has been “very consistent” in agreeing it was not going to send money without having a clear idea of how the money would be spent. Noting that the city has provided the Rialto with $9.1 million since 2005, O’Dekirk said, “All we’ve been is good partners. All of a sudden, it comes back to us. The fate of the theater falls on us. That’s ludicrous.”

The mayor said he does not have a clear idea of the Rialto’s finances and contended the theater’s debt is closer to $3 million than the $675,000 that has been projected for the end of 2016.

He is counting an outstanding loan the Rialto took to remodel adjacent office space that was turned into a downtown campus for the University of St. Francis.

O’Dekirk said he has been told that loan could be called at the end of this year, meaning the Rialto would have to pay the full $2.4 million remaining

on the loan.

But that’s not true, said Steve Randich, an executive with First Community Financial Bank in Joliet, which holds the loan. Randich also is a member of the foundation board that raises money for the Rialto.

Randich said the loan is typical of commercial loans given by the bank, which periodically are renewable as interest rates are reviewed. He said the Rialto loan already has been renewed once and will be renewed again.

“At the end of the day, I’m going to guarantee you this loan is going to be renewed,” Randich said.

He said the loan is paid with rent from USF, and the Rialto has never missed a payment.

Meanwhile, Rialto officials contend that they provide the city with the same monthly financial statements that the theater board reviews each month.

What comes next is uncertain.

Board member David Thornton said he was “truly optimistic that we can work this out, and I hope the city gives us a chance.”

Lockport approves redevelopment agreement with oil firm for $2.55M

By ANNA SCHIER

aschier@shawmedia.com LOCKPORT – The city of Lockport’s plans to bring railroad quiet zones to its downtown are gaining traction thanks to $2.55 million in funding the City Council secured Wednesday in its unanimous passage of a redevelopment agreement with oil company Ducere LLC. The city has been negotiating for about a year with Ducere, City Administrator Ben Benson said Thursday. The company is seeking to construct two storage tanks and an underground pipeline in Lockport, which will connect the tanks to a barge-loading facility outside city limits.

Lockport will receive the majority of the redevelopment agreement payments before 2020, Benson said, with the remaining $500,000 being paid in $50,000 annual increments. The payments are being made in exchange for use of public right of way for the pipeline.

The council also unanimously approved an easement agreement to allow Ducere permission to build the pipeline in the right of way.

“This would just be another enhancement in our downtown.”

Ben Benson

Lockport city administrator, on bringing the city’s railroad crossings under quiet zones Ducere has received all additional necessary approvals for the project from other government agencies, Benson said, and pipeline operations are anticipated to begin in late 2018.

The tanks will be on the existing Shell Oil tank farm off Second Street and New Avenue.

There was some discussion among council members Wednesday about whether to prioritize the costs of quiet zones over planned capital needs, but Benson said the zones are an investment in Lockport’s downtown.

“It’s more than just quality of life,” he said.

In a quiet zone, passing train engineers can’t sound their horns, so additional safe-

ty measures must be taken to compensate.

These include the installation of crossing gates, barrier curbs and delineators, Benson said.

The city’s goal is to bring all its downtown railroad crossings under quiet zones. “This would just be another enhancement in our downtown,” he said.

The council also unanimously approved the city’s fiscal 2017 budget Wednesday, Benson said.

It includes about $44 million in revenue and about $58 million in expenditures, he said, noting that the city is balancing the budget with about $12 million in reserves and an estimated $2 million low-interest loan from the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency.

The reserves and loan will be used for capital projects such as street resurfacing, water main replacements and well improvements.

Benson said that even with the $12 million the city is pulling from its reserves, it still has about $10 million in reserves remaining – $3 million more than the four months’ worth of reserve funds city policy dictates Lockport have on hand.

LOCAL BRIEF 3 people arrested for heroin possession in Braidwood

BRAIDWOOD – Three people from Wilmington were arrested Wednesday after police allegedly found 13 grams of heroin in their car.

Police Chief Nick Ficarello said a vehicle was stopped for traffic violations at 3:55 p.m. on Reed Road east of Interstate 55.

“The occupants were known to the officers from previous heroin activity,” Ficarello said.

“They were asked to step out of the vehicle, which they did, and officers conducted a search that found 45 baggies of heroin inside.”

Nicholas S. Findlay, 27, of the 25700 block of Des Plaines River Road; Nicholes A. Hanson, 29, of the 34900 block of South Peterson Lane; and Haley M. Paulsen, 26, of the 21400 block of Elmwood Avenue, were arrested and booked into the Will County Jail on charges of drug possession.

AFSCME workers demonstrate in downtown Joliet

By BOB OKON

bokon@shawmedia.com JOLIET – State workers held rallies Thursday at three locations in Joliet to demonstrate that the effect of the contract stalemate with the governor goes far beyond Springfield.

“We’ve got hundreds and hundreds of employees who live in the Joliet area and work in the Joliet area,” said David Dorn, a staff representative with the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees Council 31.

Dorn was at a lunch break rally outside the state building downtown that houses the Department of Employment Security and the Department of Human Services.

The contract standoff took on new urgency this week when the Illinois Labor Board ruled that the two sides are at an impasse.

The ruling makes it possible for Gov. Bruce Rauner to impose conditions on about 38,000 state employees represented by AFSCME, which plans to appeal the ruling in court.

Locally, those workers also include state police and guards at Stateville Correctional Center.

Dorn said there also were demonstrations Tuesday at the Department of Children and Family Services office on

According to AFSCME, demonstrations were held at 120 worksites statewide.

wants to create a 40-hour workweek with merit pay. Health care costs under the current plan would double, but alternative plans would be available at lower costs, according to the administration.

The administration said the governor’s proposal would save more than $3 billion over four years, and similar agreements have been negotiated with 18 other unions.

AFSCME is the largest union representing state workers.

The union contends that the governor is trying to force a strike.

“I think the governor should negotiate. We are not at an impasse,” said Al Luna, an AFSCME member who works at the Department of Employment Security office in Joliet.

“We’re still willing to negotiate,” said Larry Holmes, who works at the Department of Human Services office in Joliet. “We’re still willing to compromise. But he’s not willing.”

The two sides have not negotiated since January. According to the Rauner administration, the two sides met 67 times between February 2015 and January.

The AFSCME contract expired in June 2015, but the two sides agreed to extend the contract during negotiations.

’09 incident resulted in traumatic brain injury

By BRIAN STANLEY

bstanley@shawmedia.com

Jeff Tomczak Defense attorney

During Messina’s 2012 trial, several of his friends testified it was not Messina, but Mike Glielmi, another friend of theirs, who punched Bartels. Glielmi exercised his Fifth Amendment right not to testify.

On the day Judge Sarah Jones found Messina guilty during a bench trial,

Hearing Aids and Pet Safety SPONSORED BY

By Dawn Kovacik, M.A. CCC-A It’s important to protect your hearing aids from curious pets. What you see as an important piece of technology that lets you interact with others, your cat or dog sees as the best toy ever. You could find it later under the couch, unscathed, but managing several days without being able to hear would be a nightmare.

Losing a hearing aid for a few days, however, is preferable to finding one that’s chewed up. Your pet’s jaws can easily crush a hearing aid’s tiny components, leaving you to pay for repairs or a new device.

Further, hearing aid batteries are incredibly toxic to pets. If you think your cat or dog ingested one, the Pet Poison Hotline advises flushing the mouth with lukewarm water for 15 to 20 minutes. Call an emergency veterinarian immediately but don’t induce vomiting. If the battery was punctured, the corrosive liquid inside will damage the esophagus on its way out.

the Will County State’s Attorney’s Office emailed her a copy of a news release on the verdict.

Jones said she did not read the news release, and did not inform the defense she’d received it until sentencing two months later, which the appellate court later ruled was improper procedure.

Messina was sentenced to 30 months of probation and was ordered to pay restitution, which was served and paid before the appellate court decision.

He cannot be penalized further, but his conviction will be removed from his record unless he is tried and found guilty again.

On Thursday, Bartels, 33, was in the audience of Kennedy’s courtroom, and Messina and defense attorney Jeff Tomczak had to step around his large wheelchair to appear before the judge.

“We are pleased the special prosecutor is taking time and deciding whether to proceed any further against my client,” Tomczak said. “It’s a unique situation in any criminal trial when a key witness takes the Fifth Amendment on the witness stand.”

When you’re not wearing them, place hearing aids in a sturdy, protective case out of your pet’s reach, like a bedside table. Cat owners should store theirs in a drawer or on a high shelf.

COAL CITY – No one was injured when a fire damaged a house Thursday afternoon.

Shortly before 2:30 p.m., a teen was home at a two-story residence in the 800 block of Pheasant Lane in Coal City when he smelled something suspicious, Coal City Fire Protection District Lt. Nick Doerfler said.

“He called his dad, who called 911, and smoke was found in the basement,” Doerfler said. “The fire was difficult to locate in the house, but was quickly extinguished.”

Doerfler said investigators determined the fire was started by a faulty dehumidifier.

“That particular model is under recall because it’s been known to cause fires,” he noted.

Today’s trip to the store is tomorrow’s walk on the beach.

Symptoms can include: • Lack of Appetite or Bowel Movement • Pawing at the Mouth • Oral or Abdominal Pain • Drooling • Vomiting • Trouble Swallowing • Fever • Tongue is Red and Raw or White and Gray

Teach your pet what is and isn’t okay to play with.

Positive reinforcement is better than punishment.

Instead of squirting your pet with water every time it looks at your hearing aid, offer a treat when it plays with an appropriate toy.

JOLIET – A special prosecutor has been appointed to determine if a New Lenox man will be tried for a second time for allegedly inflicting traumatic injuries on another man during a 2009 bar fight in Mokena.

“This is obviously an old case, but it’s a new case for me,” Appellate Prosecutor Charles Colburn told Judge Daniel Kennedy on Thursday.

Colburn wants to review case files and meet with witnesses before Joseph P. Messina is scheduled to make another court appearance in January.

Messina, 28, was accused of punching Eric J. Bartels, on July 25, 2009, outside the 191 South bar and grill.

Bartels’ head struck the pavement, and he suffered a brain injury that left him paralyzed, blind and mute.

“We are pleased the special prosecutor is taking time and deciding whether to proceed any further against my client.

It’s a unique situation in any criminal trial when a key witness takes the Fifth Amendment on the witness stand.”

Minooka D-111 board OKs balloon tax levy increase

By JEANNE MILLSAP

Shaw Media correspondent The Minooka Community High School District 111 Board on Tuesday approved the district’s tentative 2016 property tax levy of $34.78 million, a 20.1 percent increase over last year’s property tax extension.

Chief school business official John Troy said the amount is a balloon levy, which the district sets high and does not expect to see the full amount as revenue.

With a 20.1 percent increase, the owner of a house valued at $200,000 would see the district’s portion of the property tax bill rise by about $200 this year.

Troy said the estimate for the equalized assessed value in the district has risen by about 9 percent this year. That is good news, he said. The EAV rose by about 5 percent last year and 1 percent the year before, but for the four years before that, the values were all negative.

“The district’s revenues come predominately from the housing market,” he said, “so it’s good news to see the market turning around.”

A public hearing on the property tax levy will be at 6:30 p.m. Dec. 15 at Minooka Community High School’s Central Campus.

The board also approved some

course changes on Tuesday that will take effect in the 2017-18 school year.

Students attending Minooka next year will have eight new course offerings from which to choose, and three classes will be dropped from the curriculum.

The new courses will include Introduction to Teaching, for students who are considering careers in the field; AP Human Geography, which introduces students to the study of processes that have altered the earth’s surface and have shaped human understanding of them; and Early Bird Algebra II AB, offered because of scheduling conflicts during regular school hours.

Other new courses will be ESL, an English language course designed to prepare students for academic and lifelong success; ESL Resource, which will assist ESL students with coursework; and JJC English 101 Rhetoric and JJC English 102 Rhetoric, both of which may award students with college credit.

Also next year, Aerobics class will be revised to Fitness Fusion, and it will be offered to all students rather than just juniors and seniors.

Percussion III and Percussion IV classes will be eliminated. Currently, band percussion freshmen and sophomores take Percussion I and II, respectively, and juniors and seniors take the advanced courses.

According to staff leaders, the advanced classes allowed students to focus on percussion skills at a depth not possible in general band classes. However, they said, by junior year students may be proficient in those skills but in need of other music abilities such as ensemble rehearsal skills, ensemble musicality and following a conductor.

So rather than continuing percussion classes past sophomore year, juniors and senior percussionists may enroll in Wind Symphony or Wind Ensemble classes.

Historical Perspectives also will be dropped from the school’s social studies curriculum because of low enrollment.

After the meeting, Principal Ron Kiesewetter said he believes no additional teachers will need to be hired next year to accommodate the new courses.

On Monday, the board also learned the results of its school report card, which reflects the past school year.

More of the district’s students are ready to proceed to the next level than the year before. According to results from the PARCC exam, 24.5 percent of students met or exceeded goals in math or English language arts courses, up from 17.8 percent in 2014-15.

Students had a 92 percent graduation rate last year, which is about the same as the year before, and enrollment was up

by about 100 students to a total of 2,680.

Kiesewetter said he was appreciative of one score in particular. The postsecondary remediation percentage, which reflects the number of students who graduated and needed remedial coursework in college before they began freshman-level college classes, has decreased, he said.

Two years ago, 42 percent of MCHS graduates needed remedial coursework at colleges. Last year, only 39 percent did.

“Postsecondary remediation coursework has become epidemic in the country,” Kiesewetter said. “That number has dropped three percentage points from the previous year. That number is important to us. We want our students to be ready for college.”

The percentage of MCHS students who met or exceeded ACT college readiness benchmarks also rose last year, from 58 percent to 60 percent.

Results of the 5Essentials Survey, which polled students and teachers, also showed improvements in the areas of collaborative teachers, ambitious instruction and a supportive environment.

“The survey shows our environment is getting better in the eyes of our staff and our students,” Superintendent Dr. Kenneth Lee said after the meeting.

Will County Board Auto Dealer passes budget with Directory slight tax levy drop

By MIKE MALLORY

mmallory@shawmedia.com JOLIET – The Will County Board unanimously approved the county’s fiscal 2017 budget on Thursday.

The county’s corporate fund amounts to $198 million, while special funds total $371 million for a total operating budget of $569 million. The balanced budget uses no cash reserves, and the county continues to meet all financial obligations, such as contributions to employee retirement funds.

A proposed $570 million budget was presented in September to the County Board. Will County Budget Director ReShawn Howard said there were minimal changes to the budget after board review. The fiscal 2017 budget takes effect Dec. 1.

Board member Steve Wilhelmi, D-Joliet, commended everyone involved in the budgeting process.

“This is probably one of the easiest budgets to get through the County Board in my 18 years [on the board],” Wilhelmi said.

Finance Committee Chairman Mike Fricilone, R-Homer Glen, noted reports that the average Cook County family will be paying an average of $1,700 more in taxes in 2017, in addition to the tax the county placed on sugary drinks.

This differs from Will County.

“We were able to reduce our tax rate to 0.613 [percent], which is a small amount, but our taxes will go down for an average family here in Will County,” Fricilone said, also joking that Will County soda sales now will rise.

This is the second consecutive year

“This is probably one of the easiest budgets to get through the County Board in my 18 years [on the board].”

Will County Board member, D-Joliet

Will County reduced its tax levy. The fiscal 2016 rate was 0.6196 percent, and in fiscal 2015 it was 0.6433 percent.

County Board Speaker Jim Moustis, R-Frankfort, said operational and employee costs are being kept in line.

He said within the budget are some important initiatives for the county, including the $30 million Will County Public Safety Complex, and initial work on the new Will County Judicial Complex and new Will County Health Department.

The budget also increases the county’s investment in its roadway system, Moustis said.

“We have some major secondary roads that are county roads that go through Will County,” Moustis said.

“We continue to put pretty large investments in our infrastructure, including roads and bridges.”

Moustis said there was a lot of collaboration this fall between the County Board and Executive Office staff, so there wasn’t a lot to disagree on.

The County Board meeting in which the fiscal 2016 budget was approved one year ago was about five hours long, while Thursday’s was about two hours.

• FASHION SHOW

Continued from page 3 “I assign all the models to their outfits,” Summers said, “and then my responsibility that day is to get the models dressed, get their hair done and get them lined up.”

The fashion show has two parts, so during intermission the models change clothes, Summers said. Some of them have to change quicker than others, she added.

“There’s a lot of changing of hair ribbons and bows to match their outfits. It gets hectic back there,” Summers said. “But, for the most part, we’re a well-oiled machine. We have a lot of volunteers.”

Some of those volunteers are former models, such as Summers’ daughter – Lily Summers, 15, of Plainfield. Lily

first began modeling when she was 2 (“She did Bitty Baby,” Teresa said) and has since portrayed many of the dolls, including Rebecca, Kaya, Addie and Molly.

“I grew up playing with the dolls,” Lily said. “Helping out is like a trip down memory lane for me.”

Since she stopped modeling, Lily has volunteered backstage. Last year, she was one of the show’s emcees, a role she will reprise this year. Lily said when she looks at the little girls’ faces, she realizes they’re just like her – they enjoy the dolls as much as she enjoyed them.

Mostly, Lily enjoyed sharing the experience with her mother, and she will miss that.

“I grew up with two brothers and going to a lot of their sports,” Lily said.

“This was something our mom and I could sneak off by ourselves.”

What is an automatic standby generator?

We Carry Nebulizers For Adults and Children

Nebulizers are easy to use to treat asthma for both children and adults!

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

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

STATE Officials investigate cause of deadly gas explosion “The impact of this blast was tremendous and that caused some serious, serious damage.”

The ASSOCIATED PRESS CANTON – Authorities on Thursday were investigating the cause of a gas explosion that rocked downtown homes and businesses in a central Illinois community, shattering glass and cracking interior walls in nearby buildings and killing one person and injuring several others.

The blast Wednesday evening in Canton, which is 150 miles southwest of Chicago, happened while utility workers were trying to fix a gas leak that a contractor apparently caused while installing a fiber-optic wire, officials said.

“The impact of this blast was tremendous and that caused some serious, serious damage,” the city’s police chief, Rick Nichols, said at a news conference Thursday.

More than 50 buildings were damaged, including three that were condemned.

Ameren Illinois said its crew had turned off the gas and was beginning to make repairs when the explosion happened. Nichols said investigators are still trying to determine what ignited

Illinois workers protest Rauner’s planned labor deal

SPRINGFIELD – State workers across Illinois put pressure on Republican Gov. Bruce Rauner to negotiate in demonstrations at 120 worksites.

The demonstrations Thursday were organized by the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees, which represents about 38,000 state employees.

In Springfield, workers chanted “2-4-6-8, Rauner should negotiate.” In downtown Rockford, about 75 workers picketed.

A state labor board ruled Tuesday that contract negotiations are stalled.

On Wednesday, Rauner’s administration said it intends to implement a 40-hour workweek, instead of 37.5 hours, and a merit-pay system as soon as possible.

2 men accused of stealing from state treasurer’s vault

SPRINGFIELD – A former employee of the Illinois State Treasurer’s Office and his friend are accused of stealing jewelry and gold from the agency’s unclaimed property vault.

Sangamon County State’s Attorney John Milhiser said former employee Roosevelt Smith and Ademola Adeniji face felony theft charges.

Milhiser said the treasurer’s office discovered the thefts after upgrading security measures and finding that items had gone missing from 2012 to this year.

According to WTAX radio, Smith is being held on $500,000 bail, and Adeniji was released on bond and is due in court Dec. 29.

Smith worked in the treasurer’s office for 12 years.

Ill. unemployment rate rises to 5.6 percent in October

CHICAGO – The Illinois Department of Employment Security said the statewide unemployment rate edged up to 5.6 percent in October despite a modest increase in jobs.

The department said Thursday in its monthly report on statewide unemployment that the jobless rate increased from 5.5 percent in September.

The national unemployment rate in October was 4.9 percent.

The increase in Illinois’ unemployment rate ended a five-month run during which it either dropped or held steady.

According to the state report, Illinois added a net 2,200 jobs in October.

Professional and business services firms, government and manufacturing all added jobs for the month.

Construction jobs fell by 3,300 in October and trade, transportation and utility companies lost 1,000 jobs.

Department Director Jeff Mays said Illinois’ recovery from the recession continues to be slow.

“Everyone jumped,” she said. “The door where I was sitting blew open.”

Among buildings damaged by the blast was a historic century Opera House that now houses offices; it was among three buildings condemned because they are beyond repair, Nichols said.

The police chief said officials hope to shrink the closed area to one block around the blast, but that it can only be done once it has been deemed safe.

Mayor Jeff Fritz praised first responders for their work.

“We will get through this and will be a stronger Canton,” Fritz said.

Schock’s arraignment for corruption set for Dec. 12

SPRINGFIELD – Former Illinois Congressman Aaron Schock will be arraigned next month on charges alleging that he schemed to profit personally from his government job.

Schock was scheduled to be arraigned Nov. 21 on theft of government funds, fraud, making false statements and filing false tax returns charges.

However, Schock’s attorneys asked for a delay, saying an arraignment that day would interfere with a planned international business trip by the Peoria Republican.

U.S. District Judge Sue E. Myerscough on Wednesday rescheduled Schock’s arraignment to Dec. 12.

Federal prosecutors did not object to the change.

The 52-page indictment handed up last week alleged that Schock spent government funds to redecorate his Washington office and asked the U.S. House to reimburse him for nearly $30,000 worth of camera equipment. It also accused him of running up a $140,000 mileage tab over six years.

NATION & WORLD BRIEFS Court blocks release of Netflix series’ inmate

MADISON, Wis. – A Wisconsin prison inmate whose case was featured in the Netflix series “Making a Murderer” will stay behind bars while state attorneys appeal a decision overturning his conviction, a panel of federal appellate judges ruled Thursday.

Brendan Dassey’s release from prison appeared imminent right up until the three-judge panel from the 7th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Chicago issued its decision. Television crews and reporters were staking out the prison in Portage where Dassey is being held, waiting for him to walk out at any minute, when the ruling came down around midday.

Source: Trump offers Flynn national security adviser job The ASSOCIATED PRESS NEW YORK – President-elect Donald Trump offered former military intelligence chief Michael Flynn the job of national security adviser as he began to build out his national security team Thursday, a senior Trump official said.

The move came as Trump made his most direct foray into foreign policy since the election, meeting with Japan’s prime minister.

Flynn, who served as the director of the Defense Intelligence Agency, has advised Trump on national security issues for months. As national security adviser, he would work in the White House and have frequent access to the president. The post does not require Senate confirmation.

The official wouldn’t say whether Flynn had accepted the job, which left open the possibility that the arrangement was not finalized.

The official was not authorized to discuss the offer publicly and insisted on anonymity.

Flynn, who turns 58 in December, built a reputation in the Army as an astute intelligence professional and a straight talker. He retired in 2014 and has been a fierce critic of President Barack Obama’s White House and Pentagon, taking issue with the administration’s approach to global affairs and fighting Islamic State militants.

Trump is a foreign policy novice and his early moves on national security are being closely watched by U.S allies and adversaries alike. He’s said to be considering a range of officials with varying degrees of experience to lead the State Department and Pentagon.

The president-elect held his first face-to-face

meeting with a world leader since winning the presidential election, huddling privately with Japan’s Shinzo Abe. While Trump made no comments after the meeting, Abe said the president-elect was “a leader in whom I can have great confidence.”

Trump also consulted with former Secretary of State Henry Kissinger and sat down with South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley, a potential contender to lead the State Department.

In Washington, Vice President-elect Mike Pence huddled with Republican leaders in Congress. He then met with House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi and Sen. Chuck Schumer, the newly elected leader of the Senate Democrats, seeking to convey respect as Democrats prepare for Republican rule of both chambers and the White House for the first time in a decade.

“We look forward to finding ways that we can find common ground and move the country forward,” Pence said outside Schumer’s Senate office.

In a separate gesture of reconciliation with establishment Republicans, Trump planned to meet with 2012 Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney, who lambasted Trump as a “con man” and a “fraud” in a stinging speech last March. Trump responded by repeatedly referring to Romney as a “loser.”

The two began mending fences after Trump’s victory when Romney called with congratulations. They are to meet this weekend, a transition official said, speaking on the condition of anonymity because he wasn’t authorized to discuss Trump’s schedule publicly.

Campaign manager Kellyanne Conway said they still were “working on” the meeting.

Always something to be thankful for SPRINGFIELD – As Thanksgiving approaches, like many folks, I find myself missing family members who have died and wondering what there is to be thankful for.

I remember munching crescent rolls with my brother, Danny, at the Thanksgiving dinner table and later arguing about politics.

He died 11 years ago at age 48. But what I wouldn’t give to discuss this year’s election with him.

And I’m sure that this year, as I did last, I will look to the head of the table and think of my father. He died unexpectedly in August 2015.

For 50 consecutive Thanksgivings, I watched him carve the turkey and grumble about eating a “dead bird” when the freezer was full of perfectly good ham.

We were hog farmers, after all.

And my mother would gently chide him by saying “Now, Don …”

Thanksgiving is about family.

It is strange being the oldest man at the dinner table.

Somehow, I feel unqualified to be a patriarch. And I just can’t wrap my mind around that.

I’ll miss Dad’s strong opinions and quiet prayers at the Thanksgiving table.

His final two years were lonely for him.

We lost my mother – his wife of nearly 60 years – to breast cancer in 2013.

And we miss her, too.

But, oddly enough, it was Thanksgiving and cancer that opened a door in my life that I never expected.

Back in 2001, my mother was scheduled for a partial mastectomy the week after Thanksgiving.

I was afraid. A bit lost. I didn’t want to be without her.

And I didn’t feel like I had

THE FIRST

AMENDMENT

VIEWS Scott Reeder much to be thankful for.

A friend seeing that I was down in the dumps set me up on a blind date – three days before Thanksgiving.

I didn’t know what to expect, but life was raw back then.

We arranged to meet at a local restaurant – Chili’s. I wasn’t trying to impress.

The woman, who had just graduated from veterinary school, had kind brown eyes and an easy smile.

Her Mom was fighting breast cancer, too.

The conversation didn’t revolve around the usual first date superficial small talk.

We talked about what is really important: family.

Five hours later, the restaurant manager asked us to leave – it was closing time.

Five weeks later, we were engaged to be married.

We now have three daughters.

Sometimes love sneaks up on you.

It was the last thing I expected.

When I look at the empty chair at the head of the dinner table this Thanksgiving, I will think of my Dad. And I’ll remember my brother and think of my mother.

But then I will look at the beautiful faces of my wife and three daughters, and I’ll remember what I learned that Thanksgiving when love surprised me: There is always something to be thankful for.

OUR VIEW

Time to confront financial realities We wouldn’t like to hear our boss tell us that for the next four years our pay would be frozen and we’d have to pay double for health insurance.

We don’t expect 38,000 members of the state’s largest employee union to like it, either.

However, there are financial realities at play here, realities that any private-sector employee would have been forced to confront long ago.

Anyone working for a company with a multibillion-dollar budget deficit, which the state of Illinois has, should not expect a pay increase of any kind.

Any employer with a pension system underfunded by $120 billion would have been compelled to take actions to correct that situation long ago – including possibly eliminating the pension plan.

State workers say the governor has declined to negotiate with them and is making them out to be the bad guys in the situation.

But then, union leaders probably got used to dealing with governors such as Pat Quinn, who himself tried to stand against AFSCME but eventually ended up agreeing to continued raises for employees, even as the state’s debts continued to mount.

State employee unions have fought any changes to the state’s pension system, demanded ever-higher wages, and fought any changes to employee benefits.

They simply can’t have everything. In

the private sector, when an employer’s financial fortunes decline, their workers suffer.

Illinois’ finances have been in steady decline for years. Already, social service providers and the people they serve have been hurt, as have local governments and average taxpayers.

A wage freeze and increased benefits cost might be a bitter pill for union members, but this is the state of our state in 2016 – budgetless, billions in debt, with a pension system that is underfunded and unsustainable.

State workers are not being asked to close the budget hole through their sacrifice alone. The labor deal that AFSCME’s 38,000 members could be forced to accept would save the state an estimated $3 billion, Gov. Bruce Rauner’s office has said.

Illinois’ backlog of unpaid bills stood at more than $10 billion this week.

Our state is in crisis mode, although you wouldn’t know it by the nonchalance shown by some leaders, particularly the Democrats in charge of the state House and Senate, who seem content to appoint middlemen to committees rather than discuss serious compromise and reform.

Perhaps this contract will make it clear to union members just how dire the situation really is for our state. Maybe that will lead to some pressure on politicians to actually get something done so that state government – and its employees – can have a brighter future.

ROMEOVILLE – One of the biggest challenges facing most teams at the start of a season is being able to make improvements from game to game.

And although there’s a long ways to go and work that still needs to be done, Lockport’s girls basketball team took a step in the right direction between its first two contests.

After hurting their cause by forcing matters two days earlier in a 6546 loss at Lincoln-Way West, the Porters did a better job of taking what was given to them in a 44-37 win over Lemont in Thursday’s opener of Romeoville’s Lady Spartans Thanksgiving Tournament.

“I was proud of the way that our girls responded from our game on Tuesday night,” Porters coach Dan Kelly said. “We had a really good practice yesterday and they were all locked in and focused and wanted to get better. We identified on film the things that we saw that we needed to get better, and then they went out and did it tonight.

“Lemont is very disciplined and plays great defense, so they made us work for everything that we got. I was really pleased with the way the girls were able to take what they gave us and we really didn’t force things like we did the other night. We were more patient offensively and maybe got those first-game jitters out of the way. We were a lot more composed, especially down the stretch, and we were able to put together more stops together consecutively.”

Morzorati’s death a blow to JT, Inwood families The heartache continues.

The Joliet Township high schools’ athletic family and the Inwood golf community has taken another hit with the death Wednesday of longtime athletic director and golf enthusiast Paul Morzorati. He was 79.

It seems like only yesterday when I sat on deck at Inwood and talked with Morzorati, former Romeoville football coach and athletic director Dennis Schley and Inwood manager Brian Legan about the passing of Morzorati’s dear friend, Tony Fazio. In reality, that conversation was in early June 2015.

Earlier this year, I attended the wake of former JT athletic director Don Prola and the wake of Glen Marcum, who did so much for JT athletics and for so many other organizations and individuals in Joliet.

In a sense, Morzorati was like Marcum in that he touched countless lives in multiple worlds.

A 1955 JT graduate and an avid Cubs fan, Morzorati graduated from Illinois State University. He was at Joliet West from 1966 until 1982 as a golf coach and athletic director and at Joliet Central as athletic director from then until retiring in 1995. The combined program between Central and West began a couple of years before

Two free throws and a layup from Emma Bozue (11 points) helped Lemont close to 31-27 early in the final period but the Porters got two free throws and a basket from both Treasure Thompson (11 points, 10 rebounds) and Elena Woulfe (16 points) to go up 39-31.

“Yesterday, we worked on slowing everything down,” Woulfe said. “We know that we have the ability to work in the half-court and were able to do that tonight. Lemont really pushed us and kept us on our toes the whole game. After our last game, I knew that that’s not how we play and we came out tonight a lot better and hopefully it will be that way the rest of the year.

“We’re very competitive with each other and Coach Kelly has a bunch of competitions in practice. But we’re also always there for each other and that keeps us close. And we have some younger players that are very athletic and they’re fitting in very well.”

After Bozue scored again to make it 41-37, Woulfe wrapped up the victory by hitting three free throws. The Porters also got six points and nine rebounds from

VIEWS Dick Goss Morzorati retired, and he was the first overall athletic director.

Meanwhile, he began working part-time at Wedgewood in June 1985 and was there through 1994, when he switched to Inwood. Legan said he continued to work there – “Paul would do anything you ask of him”– until the end.

“Paul was always great to talk to, because he had good stories to tell,” said Legan, who grew up knowing Morzorati’s family and played golf at Joliet Central when Morzorati was the A.D. there. “He was able to pass along stories from the old days to those of us who weren’t from that generation, and they were usually funny.

“I know he was very respected by his former players and by his golfing buddies. They have a regular weekly game, and Paul was a fixture, just like Tony [Fazio] was. All those guys were Inwood fixtures. It’s sad to say, the ranks are getting thinner.

Laurel Kucharski.

Other leaders for Lemont were Shannon O’Donnell (nine points, six rebounds) and Paige Terrazas (eight points).

This was the coaching debut of Lemont’s Tracy Rainey, who is stepping in for longtime, hall of fame coach Bill Bozue. Despite seeing her team come up a little bit short in its season opener, Rainey was pleased with the way that it battled throughout the contest.

“I’ll definitely say about this group that they’ll never give up,” Rainey said. “We’ve pushed a ton in practice and they’ve seen through the first two-and-a-half weeks that we have to bring it up to that next level of intensity.

I thought that both teams struggled a little bit in the first half but we picked it up offensively in the second half. We just didn’t have enough tonight.

“I’m just hoping that some turnovers were due to first-game jitters. Our girls battled all game long and got composed and made some key driving baskets. Emma came up huge with a couple of driving layups toward the end and our full-court pressure defense got us some turnovers. These girls have that will to win and they’ve all bought into the process.”

names in Joliet amateur golf circles] were some of the guys who played for Paul at West and still are good golfers.

I’m sure they’re all heartbroken.”

Legan said Morzorati helped run junior programs and tournaments at Inwood.

“He was someone I could trust to paint lines on the course for out of bounds and all that and get it right,” he said.

Then there’s that other world, the one filled with a close-knit athletic directors and coaches.

Bob Allen at Lockport, Ernie Cimo at Romeoville, Larry Bernard at Bolingbrook, Chuck Harris at Plainfield, Schley and Jim Boudouris at Romeoville, Kent Irvin at Joliet West and then Lockport, Alec Anderson at Bolingbrook. That was some of Morzorati’s crowd. Those were among the many who made me feel welcome and I got to know well after I returned to Joliet in 1983 to become the Herald-News sports editor.

“I don’t know how many times I’d get in the car with Paul, and he and I would drive over to Larry Bernard’s house, Chuck Harris would come over from Plainfield, maybe a couple other guys would drop in, and we’d just have a beer together and talk and tell

stories,” said Irvin, who was athletic director at Joliet West from 1990 until 1992 before moving on to Lockport, where he spent a majority of his career.

“Paul was a friend and mentor to me. He taught me a lot. He told me things that only guys who were a little more gray in the whiskers knew. He was different in a good way.”

Irvin said he never will forget the old SICA Conference athletic directors meetings.

“It was so much fun to get to know and meet with all those guys,” Irvin said. “We’d get there early and stay after. We were co-workers and good friends.”

Rest assured, Morzorati spun more than his share of humorous tales.

Morzorati is survived by his wife of 53 years, Sharon, and three daughters: Lynn (Mike) Metz, Anne (Amrand) De’Andrea and Janine (Paul) Raspolich. Visitation is from 3 to 6 p.m. Sunday at Anderson Memorial Home, 21131 W. Renwick Road, Crest Hill. A funeral Mass is scheduled for 11 a.m. Monday at St. Mary Immaculate Church in Plainfield.

BOYS BASKETBALL: MINOOKA

Minooka’s basketball cupboard well stocked

By DICK GOSS

dgoss@shawmedia.com The Minooka boys basketball program took a giant step forward last season.

The Indians finished 23-9, won the Southwest Prairie Conference championship for the first time and claimed their first regional title since 1977.

The run ended with a 55-38 loss to Oswego in the Class 4A Lockport Sectional semifinals, but that took nothing away from everything coach Scott Tanaka’s team accomplished.

Herald-News All-Area selection Joe Butler, who is playing baseball at Illinois State, was Minooka’s main man and is a major loss. A few others who played major roles also graduated.

But the cupboard is far from bare.

In fact, when this edition of the Indians debuts Monday night against Lockport in the WJOL Thanksgiving Classic at University of St. Francis, their fans may be pleasantly surprised with what they see.

That begins with Joe Butler’s

younger brother Jon Butler, a 6-foot2 senior and a varsity mainstay throughout his high school career.

“Jonny was a point guard his freshman year for an 18-win team,” Tanaka said. “This year he will play the 4 or 5 [power forward or center].

“He didn’t play football this year to concentrate more on baseball and a lot on basketball. He hit the weights.

He’s going to be an inside presence for us. He will be a matchup problem for other teams.

“This is going to be a very talented area this year with lots of good players, and Jonny is going to take people by surprise.”

Others returning who will have an impact include the Graebner twins – junior guards Keegan and Kyle – both of whom played significant varsity minutes last season.

“They are big pieces,” Tanaka said.

“They have gotten significantly better since last year.”

John Carnagio, better known as Minooka’s quarterback, has recovered from the injury that cost him the last few football games and will contribute

muscle and athletic know-how. Senior guard Antonio Milazzo gained experience last season, and Tanaka said he and junior Brandon Hill, younger brother of Minooka standout wide receiver Isaiah Hill, have come a long way in the last year.

“We really have four point guards we feel good about, and Jonny [Butler] used to be a point guard,” Tanaka noted. “As a coach, that makes me feel secure with us taking care of the ball.

“We had a couple of guys who could shoot it last year in Larry Roberts and Nick Clemmons, but collectively, we may be a better shooting team than in the past. We might be a little more uptempo.”

Senior Zach Schultz and junior Adrian Paige, the leading scorer on Minooka’s highly successful sophomore team last season, are expected to contribute.

“I think Adrian Paige will step in and do a nice job,” Tanaka said.

To complete the puzzle, the Indians added two transfers in the offseason who may play large roles before all is said and done. Senior Aurelius

Lennon-Rios, a 6-3 forward, came in from Morris, and 6-6 sophomore center Adrian Gutierrez left Providence and enrolled at Minooka.

“Those two add some size,” Tanaka said. “It’s been a little bit of an adjustment for them, coming into our program. But they will be a good complement to what we already had.”

Like everyone involved in Thanksgiving tournaments, Tanaka said the Indians are anxious to begin playing games.

“Early on, it will be a process for us,” he said. “It’s exciting to us to get started. We’ll see what shape the team takes as the games unfold.

“We’re a young, inexperienced team that I expect will grow as the season progresses.”

Meanwhile, while the growing pains are at work, Tanaka said there is a security blanket.

“One thing our program is prideful on is our defense,” he said. “Even if we struggle on offense and continuity-wise for a while, we know our defense will be there. That helps us get ready for the season.”

PREP FOOTBALL PLAYOFFS: SEMIFINAL PLAYOFF CAPSULES CLASS 7A PLAINFIELD NORTH AT FENWICK Kickoff: 3:30 p.m. Saturday at Triton College in River Grove Records: Plainfield North 10-2, Fenwick 11-1 Playoff history: Plainfield North is in for the sixth time, third in succession, and is 3-5 in playoff games. Fenwick is in for the 17th time, first since 2014, and is 19-16.

2016 playoffs: Plainfield North beat Highland Park, 42-0; Bradley, 49-20; and Rockford Auburn, 30-7. Fenwick beat Hononegah, 31-10; Lake Zurich, 20-14; and Jacobs, 28-21.

Championship game: East St. Louis (12-0) is at Benet at 2 p.m. Saturday in the other Class 7A semifinal. Plainfield North would face that winner in the title game at 4 p.m., Nov. 26 at the University of Illinois in Champaign.

The skinny: Both teams are in search of their first appearance in a state championship game. The key for Plainfield North is to continue playing the same football offensively and defensively that it has been playing the past several weeks. The Tigers have outscored their past seven opponents 286-34.

Brady Miller’s emergence at quarterback has been huge. He has completed 59.7 percent of his passes for 1,769 yards and 19 touchdowns. Connor Peplow leads a solid receiving corps, and Tyler Hoosman and Dillon McCarthy both have been doing CLASS 5A PEORIA AT MORRIS Kickoff: 3 p.m. Saturday Records: Peoria 11-1, Morris 10-2 Playoff history: Peoria is in for the 15th time, fourth in succession, and is 20-14 in playoff games with one runner-up finish. Morris is in for the 32nd time, first since 2014, and is 70-28 with three titles and seven runner-up finishes.

2016 playoffs: Peoria beat Dunlap, 21-9; Decatur Eisenhower, 96-40; and Washington, 68-46. Morris beat Marion, 48-28; Troy Triad, 14-7; and Metamora, 12-7.

Championship game: Vernon Hills (9-3) is at Sycamore (8-4) at 2 p.m. Saturday in the other Class 5A semifinal. Morris would face that winner in the title game at 10 a.m., Nov. 26 at the University of Illinois in Champaign.

The skinny: This matchup falls into the irresistible force against immovable object category. Peoria has scored a state-leading 700 points, averaging a remarkable 58.3 a game.

The Lions have scored 70 or more four times and 68 on three other occasions. Geno Hess has averaged 204 rushing yards a game, and Jaleen James is adding 108. Quarterback Coran Taylor accounted for 420 yards of offense last week against Washington and averages 96 rushing yards and 124 passing yards a game.

On the other hand, Morris, which relies on its defense and a more methodical running game, is playing for the ninth time this season at home, where it is 8-0. In addition, the Redskins

consistent damage in the running game.

Fenwick’s only loss was 52-21 to powerful Loyola on Sept. 23. The Friars beat Providence, 35-28, in Week 7 in a game where the Celtics gained 276 total yards in

the first half and were limited to 44 yards in the second half. Fenwick quarterback Jacob Keller has thrown for 2,192 yards and 24 touchdowns, and running back Connor Lillig has gone for 1,356 yards. So a North

defense that has allowed 8.5 points a game, fifth best in Illinois, and not yielded more than 22 to anyone, will be tested.

The pick: Plainfield North

The Tigers defeated the Knights, 30-7. are 10-2 all-time in semifinal games. The key for Morris will be putting together – and finishing – long drives, thus keeping the potent Peoria offense on the sideline as much as pos-

sible. It is important to the Redskins that they win the turnover battle and limit penalties. If weather conditions are less than ideal, they probably would not mind that, either. Michael

Feeney leads the Morris attack with 1,274 rushing yards, averaging 8.3 a carry.

“I told the guys the other day that they are right now among the top 13 teams in the history of this school,” Thorson said. “That’s a big accomplishment, but I told them that we don’t want a plaque that hides behind the trophies in the trophy case.

Since the playoffs began in 1975, Morris has reached the semifinals 12 times and has won 10 of those contests.

Some of the seniors on this year’s team were called up for the playoffs as sophomores two years ago, when Peoria ended the Redskins’ season in the quarterfinals, and Sobol was a starter as a sophomore as well.

“These kids remember losing to them,” Thorson said. “But this game isn’t about revenge or anything like that. What they remember is that we had them down in the fourth quarter before they came back to beat us, and we feel like we are a lot better team now than we were then. Of course, Peoria is a much different team now than they were then, too.

“But with us being on our home field, our kids really believe they can beat anyone. It’s not cockiness, but there is just a confidence about our guys that says they know they can get the job done.”

Kris Bryant, Mike Trout win baseball’s MVP awards

By JAY COHEN

The Associated Press CHICAGO – While the Los Angeles Angels stumbled, Mike Trout soared again.

Just too good to ignore.

Trout won the AL MVP award Thursday for the second time in three years, and Cubs third baseman Kris Kris Bryant Bryant was voted NL MVP in balloting by the Baseball Writers’ Association of America.

While the Angels finished fourth in the AL West, Trout was his usual brilliant self. The center fielder batted .315 with 29 homers, 100 RBIs and 30 steals. He scored 17 percent of Los Angeles’ runs, the highest percentage for an AL player since Rickey Henderson with the 1985 New York Yankees.

Trout, who was a unanimous winner in 2014, had finished second in three of the past four years. He becomes the first MVP from a losing team since Alex Rodriguez for Texas in 2003, and just the fifth player ever to accomplish the feat, joining Hall of Famers Ernie Banks (1958 and 1959), Andre Dawson (1987) and Cal Ripken (1991).

“It’s an unbelievable feeling,” Trout said. “Just trying to get better every year.”

Bryant hit .292 with 39 homers and 102 RBIs in just his second year in the majors, helping the Cubs to their first World Series title since 1908.

The No. 2 overall pick from the 2013 draft becomes just the sixth player to win Rookie of the Year and MVP in one or consecutive seasons.

“Kris is just an impressive young man in every aspect,” Cubs owner Tom Ricketts said. “[He] is very mature, professional, light-hearted, but serious at the same time. He’s just

kind of a dream player for any organization.”

The Las Vegas native is the first NL MVP from the Cubs since Sammy Sosa in 1998 and the seventh overall for the once-forlorn franchise enjoying its best run in decades. First baseman Anthony Rizzo and right fielder Jason Heyward each won a Gold Glove, and Rizzo finished fourth in the MVP balloting. Manager Joe Maddon and pitchers Kyle Hendricks and Jon Lester also were finalists for major awards this offseason.

Voting by BBWAA members was completed by the start of the playoffs.

Bryant was a runaway winner, grabbing 29 of 30 first-place votes and 415 points. Nationals second baseman Daniel Murphy, who batted .347 for the NL East champions, was the runner-up with the other firstplace vote and 245 points. Dodgers shortstop Corey Seager was third after he was the unanimous winner of

the NL Rookie of the Year award on Monday.

Seager will look to follow in Bryant’s footsteps next year.

Bryant was the unanimous NL Rookie of the Year after he hit .275 with 26 homers and 99 RBIs last season. Bryant joins Dustin Pedroia (2007-08), Ryan Howard (2005-06) and Cal Ripken (1982-83) as the only players to go Rookie of the Year-MVP in consecutive seasons. Ichiro Suzuki (2001) and Fred Lynn (1975) are the only players to win the awards in the same year.

Trout received 19 first-place votes and 356 points. Mookie Betts, who batted .318 with 31 homers, 113 RBIs and 26 steals in 158 games for the Boston Red Sox, was second with 311 points, and AL batting champion Jose Altuve of Houston was third.

Retiring Red Sox slugger David Ortiz got one first-place vote and finished sixth in his final year in the majors.

MORRIS – With the last name of Dransfeldt and a first initial of K, it might be hard to imagine that Kameron Dransfeldt would fly under the radar as far as Morris athletics goes.

But so far this football season, that is exactly what has been happening.

That’s because Dransfeldt – a junior whose father, Kelly, was a three-sport standout who set the state record for home runs in a season while leading Morris to a baseball state runner-up finish in his senior season before going on to play for the University of Michigan in college as well as the Texas Rangers and White Sox in the big leagues – has a trio of outstanding senior running backs ahead of him on the depth chart.

Still, that hasn’t stopped him from producing when his number has been called. Dransfeldt has made the most of his somewhat limited time on the field and has caught a touchdown pass in each of the past two games, as well as delivering a key interception in Saturday’s 12-7 quarterfinal win over Metamora.

“Kam is one of those kids that would start on just about any other team around,” Morris coach Alan

Thorson said. “He just has three guys [Michael Feeney, Keagan Sobol and Michael Gerischer] ahead of him that are outstanding players.

He hasn’t let that get him down and, when he’s been asked to get in there, he has done his job.”

Dransfeldt is just one member of the junior class who has made major contributions to the Redskins’ 10-2 record so far this season. Others include Payton Voitik, Nolan Feeney, Brennan Goff, Nathan Korte, Avery Hoffman and Alonzo Enriques, along with sophomore Dylan Swartz.

“This junior class has really stepped up,” Thorson said. “Payton Voitik has made a lot of big plays for us in the secondary, and the offensive linemen [Feeney, Goff and Korte] have been a big key to our running game. Dylan Swartz is really turning into a good lineman also, and the two juniors on the D-line [Hoffman and Enriques], I just can’t say enough about.”

Twelve-year-old Reagan Davidson has lead role in ‘The Nutcracker’ If you go

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

HOMER GLEN – Clara. The young girl who falls asleep on Christmas Eve and awakens to a fairy tale world and true love.

Many little girls dream of dancing their way into “The Nutcracker’s” main role, and Reagan Davidson, 12, of Homer Glen was no exception.

She will portray the coveted role in Von Heidecke’s Chicago Festival Ballet’s “The Nutcracker” on Nov. 27 at the Rialto Square Theatre in Joliet. This marks “The Nutcracker’s” 27th year, Kenneth Von Heidecke, founder and director of the Chicago Festival Ballet, said Clara is a fun role, Reagan said.

“You get to do a lot of new things,” Reagan said. “I’m being partnered for the first time this year and that’s big. I get to do a lot of acting and I get to work with a lot of professionals. All eyes are on you, so it’s fun.”

Von Heidecke said most “Claras” are in the 13 to 17 age range. He explained why he chose Reagan.

“She has a beautiful sense of naivety; she’s a wonderful actress; she’s a strong, hard worker; and she’s an amazingly good technician for her age,” Von Heidecke said. “It’s funny how you can see the people that have talent in them and that are determined to dance professionally, and she does possess those qualities.”

Von Heidecke also called Reagan “a perfect student” because of the way she accepts correction. She doesn’t become offended, as some students do, he said, but actually smiles.

“She knows it’s for her benefit and that she’s a stronger dancer for it,” Von Heidecke said, “both technically and aesthetically.”

Von Heidecke said he recently announced that Reagan also will play Alice in his “Alice in Wonderland” spring ballet. Performance locations aren’t finalized, but might include Joliet, he said.

“I find her acting ability to be extraordinary for that age,” Von Heidecke said. “Many children aren’t good at portraying expressing the passion and the feelings, but she’s figured it out.”

Ballet, ballet, ballet

Rachel Davidson said she started her daughter Reagan in ballet lessons when Reagan was 2 years old. Rachel said she chose the Chicago Festival Ballet right from the start because Rachel wanted Reagan to learn correct classical tech-

Unlike Rachel, Reagan wasn’t interested in other dance methods, such as tap, jazz and hip hop.

“All she wanted was ballet,” Rachel said.

Reagan never minded the time commitment – 12 to 15 hours of lessons each week, four days each week, with the time increasing to 23 hours when rehearsing

for “The Nutcracker,” Rachel said.

Moreover, Reagan participates in an intense summer program with Chicago Festival Ballet, Rachel added.

But Reagan’s passion for ballet never interfered with her education. She has a 4.9 grade point-average at Oak Prairie Junior High School in Homer Glen and is a member of the National Junior Honor Society, Rachel said “She’s very smart,” Rachel said.

“Ballet is something she loves to do, but

she’s not looking at it as a career.”

This is Reagan’s sixth year performing in “The Nutcracker.” Her past roles include an angel, a mouse and a party girl. Reagan found out she had the role of Clara after auditions in August.

“She was very excited,” Rachel said.

“Very few girls get to be Clara. I always wanted to but I was never lucky enough.”

The benefits of portraying Clara are many. Reagan said she’s improved her technique from watching and working with the professional dancers the Chicago Festival Ballet brings in for “The Nutcracker.”

Reagan also has learned new skills simply from dancing with a partner, which many dancers don’t experience until they’re older, she said.

“It’s scary to be up so high,” Reagan said. “You have to use your core muscles to stay up and to make sure you’re on balance. You have to crack down on every detail because everyone is watching you.”

Does Reagan experience onstage jitters? Not really, she said. She enjoys perfecting – and then showcasing – her abilities. Besides, she added, from the stage, one can’t see the audience’s faces.

“It’s just black,” she said.

Reagan has two solid reasons why she won’t pursue dance as a career. One, few dancers earn a high salary, she said.

Two, dancers generally retire early. Older bodies don’t handle hardcore motions well.

For Reagan, that means she wants to be a physical therapist, a rheumatologist or an orthodontist. With the first two, Reagan feels she could incorporate her love of ballet.

“A lot of ballet dancers go into physical therapy,” Reagan said. “For rheumatology – I just through the joints and everything would be interesting.”

And orthodontics?

“I’ve had braces,” Reagan said, “And I thought it would be a pretty good job.”

Statins do more than lower cholesterol

SUDOKU

tack – regardless of their cholesterol level.

The American Heart Association (AHA) and the American College of Cardiology issued new statin-prescribing guidelines in November 2013. Until then, doctors prescribed statins to reach specific cholesterol goals or targets. Instead, the new guidelines ask doctors to prescribe statins based on a patient’s overall heart and artery disease risk.

Specifically, the new guidelines recommend patients in any of the following groups be treated with a statin: • People who already have heart or artery disease; • People with very high levels of LDL cholesterol (190 mg/dL or higher); • Anyone between the ages of 40 and 75 who has Type 2 diabetes; • Adults age 40 to 75 years who have a heart disease or stroke risk of 7.5 percent or greater in the next 10 years.

Of course, all drugs have some risk.

Statins can cause muscle cramps and, rarely, more serious muscle injury and liver problems. It’s a matter of balancing your personal risks and benefits. For most people covered by the new guidelines, I believe the benefits of statins are greater than the risks.

Although I don’t know the specifics in your case, I’ll bet the reason your doctor now is recommending statins is you are at high risk for heart disease, even though your cholesterol levels are not particularly high. If so, I would agree.

ed statins to me, but he says there are new guidelines, and thinks I should now start taking one. What do you think of the new statin guidelines?

Dear Reader: The new guidelines make a lot of sense, because we’ve learned statins have more effects on the body than just lowering cholesterol.

Statins were developed after a Nobel Prize-winning discovery in the 1970s revealed how the body makes cholesterol. Most of the cholesterol in our body is made by our body, not consumed in our food. Statins slow the production of LDL (“bad”) cholesterol by the body.

In the 1980s, studies showed statins dramatically lowered blood levels of LDL cholesterol and also lowered the risk of heart attack. At first, we assumed the lower risk of heart attack was entirely explained by the lower cholesterol. That’s because we knew people with high LDL cholesterol in their blood had higher rates of heart attack.

But then a large study conducted at Harvard Medical School found statins profoundly lowered the risk of heart attack, even in people with normal total and LDL cholesterol levels.

That’s because statins do more than just lower cholesterol. Heart attacks occur when cholesterol-filled plaques in the heart’s arteries rupture, causing a clot that blocks blood from getting to the heart. Inflammation inside the plaques causes them to rupture – and statins reduce inflammation.

This realization changed the way doctors think about statins. If statins lower the risk of heart attack even in people with normal cholesterol levels, we should give them to people at high risk for heart at-

you become serious less quickly and let relationships evolve without looking for commitment or signs of betrayal. If a man acts responsibly, does what he says he will and treats you with respect, give him the benefit of the doubt and the chances are your luck may change. If you’re unable to do this, some sessions with a licensed professional counselor might help.

parents are using your invitations to the older boy as a baby-sitting opportunity for the younger one. I don’t think it would be rude to tell them you can handle only one child at a time, and to please refrain from sending the little brother to your home unless he specifically is invited.

Dear Abby: I am struggling with trust in my relationships. I haven’t found a faithful man in any of the relationships I’ve had in the last five years, and it has made me gun shy. Now, each time I try to date, I look for any small indication he could be cheating, which leads to jealousy and drives men away.

ANSWER TO PREVIOUS PUZZLE M O S T

I am a retired airline employee, and I get passes for my friends and family. I recently provided first-class-eligible round-trip passes from San Diego to Paris to my best friend and her friend. (The fare would have cost them thousands of dollars retail.) The only thing I asked in return was to pick me up a menu, a print or something small that could be packed easily.

They were in Paris for a month, Abby, and they totally forgot me. I am so hurt. Sometimes I want to call them and tell them how I feel. Then I think it wouldn’t be a good idea. What is the best way to handle this? – Up In The Air Dear Up In The Air: I don’t blame you for being angry about the thoughtlessness and ingratitude they displayed. Your feelings are justified, and you should clear the air by explaining you were hurt. You have every right to tell your friend how you feel. And the next time you are asked to give them a free ride, you have every right to say “non.”

Dear Abby: I’m hoping you can guide me on how to handle a sticky situation with my neighbors.

My 9-year-old son has befriended a kid his age. The boy is nice, and I don’t mind him coming over. However, he has a younger brother the parents always send with him, and the boy is very hyper and aggressive. I work full time as a behavior specialist and deal with hyperactive children all day. The last thing I want when I come home is a hyper child I cannot parent.

My son recently invited his friend to sleep over, and the parents sent both boys. How do I let them know sometimes just the older brother is welcome without hurting their feelings? – Not

SATURDAY HOROSCOPE

By EUGENIA LAST

Newspaper Enterprise Association TODAY – Be careful when dealing with friends and relatives. Emotional matters will escalate if you aren’t willing to compromise. Opt to do your own thing and avoid any sort of joint venture. Your plans will be easier to achieve on your own. Romance looks promising.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) – The past can help you make a positive choice when it comes to partnerships and domestic matters. Rely on your experience to help you reach your objective.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) – Solidify any pending agreement. Your ability to negotiate

and bring about positive change should be put into play. Stick to the truth and verify secondhand information. Take charge.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) – Call in a favor, but make it clear what you want, need and are willing to do in return. Stay on top of a situation that involves others to ensure good results.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) – Don’t labor over what needs to be done. Take care of your responsibilities quickly and manage your time wisely to get to the things that bring you joy.

PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) – You’ll be tempted to get involved in something that isn’t in your best interest. Don’t overpay or make promises that will stifle your chance to pursue personal dreams.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) – Do your own

research and handle your own affairs. You’ve got far more going for you than you realize.

Negotiate for what you want and make the changes that will improve your life.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) – Don’t let stubbornness be your downfall. Anger will solve nothing, but working toward positive personal change and taking progressive action will lead to success. Offer love and peace, and avoid discord.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) – Take time to visit a destination that encourages learning, sightseeing or spending time with someone you admire. There is plenty to gain from getting out and about.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) – You can score big by taking on additional responsibilities. Your ability

to get things done and to do so within budget and on time will be what impresses others the most. Avoid indulgent people.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) – Get involved in programs or situations that will help you gain knowledge and experience. Making plans with a loved one will bring you closer together.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) – Don’t fear criticism when you can use it to better yourself and what you do. Success comes from honing your skills and keeping up with trends.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) – Consider what you want to do next. A hobby or skill you enjoy should be developed and turned into a lucrative pastime. Live your dream instead of just thinking about it.

Bennett Cerf, one of the founders of Random House, said, “Gross ignorance is 144 times worse than ordinary ignorance.”

That’s the sort of clever comment some people -- like me! -- wish they had thought of first. In today’s deal, though, the word “worse” was used by the original declarer. He was in four hearts. He ruffed the club-ace lead, drew two rounds of trumps leaving the queen on the board, cashed the diamond ace and king, then played a third diamond. However, East won with the queen and shifted to the spade queen. Three spade losers later, declarer was one down.

“Did you ever see a worse distribution?” South asked his partner.

“East had the diamond queen and West had ace-third of spades. If the diamond queen or spade ace had been doubleton, or the diamond queen with West, I would have been all right.”

North agreed that his partner was unlucky. However, after the session, what did he point out that his partner had missed?

After ruffing at trick one, South could have made the contract with some excellent guesswork. The curious may work it out. But much simpler was not to ruff; instead, to discard a diamond. Suppose West switches to a diamond. South wins with dummy’s king, draws trumps, plays his last diamond to dummy’s ace and leads another diamond.

Here, the queen appears, so declarer ruffs, crosses to the heart queen and discards a spade on the diamond jack. If East plays low on the third diamond, South pitches a spade and cannot be defeated even if West wins the trick.
