Police continue to search Joliet home for remains of Rolling Meadows man

By BRIAN STANLEY

JOLIET TOWNSHIP – Police continued Thursday to look for the remains of a Rolling Meadows man who disappeared 41 years ago.

Yellow police tape limited access to the house at 1113 Barber Lane for a second day, and one investigator emerged from behind the house in overalls covered in mud up to his chest – indicating substantial digging.

The missing man was the college roommate of Russel Smrekar, a Joliet man who confessed to the killing while he was dying in prison while serving a sentence for two other murders.

Smrekar, however, did not tell police where the body of his old roommate, Michael Mansfield, was.

Detectives are examining the home for the possibility that evidence or the remains of Mansfield may be located there, according to a Rolling Meadows Police Department news release.

Rolling Meadows police are working with assistance from the Cook County Major Case Assistance Team and the Will County Sheriff’s Office.

Rolling Meadows police have not returned multiple calls seeking comment.

Eric Ginnard – eginnard@ shawmedia.com

The news release stated that more details regarding the investigation would be released at a later date.

Smrekar confessed in 2011 that he had killed Mansfield.

Smrekar was serving a sentence of 200 to 600 years at the time for the murders of two people, who, like Mansfield, were going to testify against him.

Mansfield was on break from Lincoln College when he disappeared from his Rolling Meadows home Dec. 31, 1975, and he was never seen again.

Six days later he was set to testify against Smrekar, who was accused of stealing a guitar and some records from a dorm room.

The property at Barber Lane has a separate garage behind the house. A wooded lot and a small creek are next door. Police set up several tarps and a tent between the two buildings.

Will County Coroner Patrick O’Neil said Thursday afternoon that his office had not been notified of any remains found at the location.

Museum will become home of Joliet Area Sports Hall of Fame

By BOB OKON

bokon@shawmedia.com JOLIET – Great moments in sports and the local people who were part of them are featured in a display at the Joliet Area Historical Museum.

The Joliet Area Sports Hall of Fame Special Exhibit is a prelude to a permanent place in the museum that will honor the athletes who came out of the Joliet area and often gained national recognition.

But even the temporary exhibit, which has been extended to June, is a sight to behold, said Billy Boy Thompson, the Joliet amateur boxing great whose gloves and shoes are among the displays.

“I thought I was in Cooperstown,” Thompson said with a bit of exaggeration. “It’s not as big as the Hall of Fame, don’t get me wrong, but for a small city, it’s very nice.”

For a small city, Joliet has made a big contribution to the world of sports, which is a message of the exhibit.

Thompson – whose many victories included a bout with future heavyweight champion contender Ron Lyle, and whose few defeats included a match with future heavyweight champion George Foreman – is one of the athletes whose prominence is noted.

Just some of the others include George Mikan, who is counted among the greatest players in the NBA; Tom Thayer, the offensive lineman on the 1985 Bears team that won the Super Bowl; and professional bowler Jim Stefanich, whose 300 game was captured on national TV. A “Take Me Out to the Ballgame” display lists the many local players who went on to the major leagues.

“You can go on and on with examples,” said Pat Sullivan, the former University of St. Francis basketball coach, who also is in the exhibit.

“Just think about Eddie and Scott Spiezio,” he said, noting the local father and son who both played for the St. Louis Cardinals during the course of their major league careers. “When Eddie presented Scott with his World Series ring, it was the first time a father presented a

Sullivan said he “was always proud of the sports background of Joliet.”

It’s that pride that the Joliet

Area Historical Museum wanted to capture with the special exhibit and hopes to commemorate with a permanent display, museum Executive Director Greg Peerbolte said “I’ve gotten positive feedback

from the community that we’re attacking this subject,” Peerbolte said.

The sports exhibit is special, he said, because it depicts people of different towns, races, genders and eras.

One display of Olympians begins with Merrit Giffin, the Joliet Township High School student who would throw the discus in the 1908 Olympics in London, and includes Cathy Boswell, the Joliet West High

Chief Judge Richard Schoenstedt delivers the State of the Courthouse address Wednesday at the Jacob Henry Mansion in Joliet.

Schoenstedt delivers State of the Courthouse address Chief judge: Design, construction of new building on schedule

By BRIAN STANLEY

bstanley@shawmedia.com JOLIET – Next year, it might be the State of the Courthouses – plural.

Chief Judge Richard Schoenstedt told members of the Will County Bar Association at their annual luncheon Wednesday that the design phase of the new courthouse is nearing completion, and construction is scheduled to begin next spring.

The Will County Judicial Complex – 10 stories plus a basement – will have a four-story wing for use by many courthouse and legal departments. Twenty-eight courtrooms will be installed, with the top two floors “shelled” for future additions, Schoenstedt said.

“Whenever it’s finally built out, I anticipate it will have 38 to 42 court-

Will County chief judge, on what would happen to the current courthouse rooms,” he said.

If construction begins on time, the building – to be located in downtown Joliet next to the current courthouse at 14 W. Jefferson St. – will be completed by September 2020 and see officials move in a few months later.

“A major focus for the court this past year is the design and development of the new judicial complex,” Schoenstedt said. “Members of every justice-related department have spent countless hours meeting with architects, consultants and technical

blueprints and other documents, and considering the requirements of a court facility that will serve the needs of Will County for decades.”

Bar association members asked Schoenstedt about what is expected to happen to the current courthouse, which housed all of the county offices when it opened in 1969.

Before the judge could answer, one audience member made the sound of a bomb and explosion to indicate it would be demolished, as the old one was.

“The county will look at the cost of every option, but it’s shortsighted to think the building couldn’t be utilized [by] putting several things in place of the courtrooms or keep some of the courtrooms,” Schoenstedt said.

ROMEOVILLE – Lou Aguirre is the newest Romeoville village trustee.

Mayor John Noak and the Village Board on Wednesday appointed Aguirre to fill the unexpired term of former Trustee Sue Micklevitz, who recently retired after almost eight years on the board.

Aguirre’s term will expire in April 2019.

Aguirre has lived in Romeoville since 1969 and owns Lou’s Styling Place.

She’s been in business there since 1989.

Aguirre said a gradual process of wanting to do more community service Lou Aguirre led her to the Village Board.

She’s served on the Board of Directors for the Romeoville Area Chamber of Commerce since 2011 and the Romeoville Fire and Police Commission since 2012. She became a member of the Rotary Club of Romeoville last year.

“I like to be involved in the community,” she said.

Aguirre said she was one of several people interviewed for the position. She said she has been impressed with the growth of the village under the current board.

“I don’t see problems,” Aguirre said. “I see a pattern of growth to benefit all people of Romeoville. Living here since 1969, it’s been a great town. And we have a lot of new things coming.”

Aguirre is excited about the Metra station planned for the village. It will give Romeoville residents who choose to work outside of the village another form of transportation, she said.

Aguirre said she’s honored to serve on the Village Board.

“It’s great to be a part of the community and help Romeoville continue to go in the right direction,” she said. “There are good people here.”

Aguirre speaks fluent Spanish and has visited 24 countries.

“Lou will be a great addition to the Village Board,” Noak said in a news release.

“She brings experience and knowledge both as a longtime resident and business owner within the community.”

Redevelopment plans for old Plainfield fire station in works

By MIKE MALLORY

mmallory@shawmedia.com PLAINFIELD – The old Plainfield fire station downtown may be redeveloped in the near future.

On Jan. 17, the Plainfield Plan Commission gave the Village Board a unanimous positive recommendation to approve a special use permit request

by Station One Des Plaines Street LLC. Last year, the Plainfield Fire Protection District sold the building, 15025 S. Des Plaines St., after using it for storage in recent years.

In a video of the plan commission meeting that the village posted to YouTube, Plainfield Director of Planning Jonathan Proulx said that there’s about 6,700 square feet of space on the first floor suitable for restaurant uses, and space for six apartments on the second floor.

If the permit is approved by the board, residential use would be allowed in the building.

A special use permit is required because the building is in a business

This has been a great development opportunity in the downtown, and we think this has the potential to be an outstanding addition.”

The surrounding area has mixed uses, such as retail and residential.

The project includes the potential for a building addition or second building that would mimic the original.

Attorney David Silverman represented Station One Des Plaines Street LLC at the plan commission meeting.

There’s potential for two businesses on the ground floor, including a restaurant or two with outdoor seating.

“We think it’s a good plan and a

good use,” Silverman said. “Whenever you’re working with an old building, there are certain limitations that apply.”

Commissioner John Green said that although the fire station has not operated for several years, there was a time when sirens could be heard at all hours of the day.

He said the noise from new uses after redevelopment of the property wouldn’t be nearly as noticeable as the working fire station.

“The commercial improvements would be a wonderful thing for Plainfield,” he said.

Mayor Mike Collins expressed excitement about the project at his State of the Village luncheon Jan. 18.

“This has been a great development opportunity in the downtown, and we think this has the potential to be an outstanding addition,” Proulx said in the video.

The property owners are going to work with the village to determine landscaping options at the front of the building.

SHOREWOOD – Police said a gang member fled a traffic stop Wednesday and led officers on a chase through the Hammel Woods Forest Preserve District of Will County.

The incident happened at 8:52 p.m., when an officer saw a silver 2002 Infiniti with heavily tinted windows driving north on Route 59 near Sunrise Drive, Shorewood Deputy Police Chief Eric Allen said.

When a registration check showed the regis- Jeremy tered owner, Jeremy M. M. Durr Durr, 24, had a suspended driver’s license, the officer made a traffic stop, and the Infiniti pulled into a parking lot in the 500 block of Route 59.

“The driver stopped the vehicle in the rear of the lot, near the tree line of Hammel Woods Forest Preserve,” Al-

“The couple had been having [domestic] issues,” Fisher said. “She told the officer he’d been spending a lot of time in their attic, and she became suspicious. When she went up there, she found videotaping equipment and cameras aimed at a neighbor’s house.”

Police reviewed video evidence, which allegedly shows the window of a bathroom used by members of a family, including adults and minors.

“One of the difficulties with these cases is the recovery of electronic evidence when things are deleted, so that’s why it took some time before our officers could obtain a warrant,” Fisher said.

Will County court records show Migetz’s wife has filed for divorce, and his neighbors have obtained a restraining order.

len said.

Despite being ordered to stay in the vehicle, Durr ran into the woods while holding “an object in the waistline of his pants,” Allen said.

Police chased Durr into the densely wooded forest preserve and eventually caught up to him. Allen said Durr was stunned with a Taser when he refused to submit to arrest.

A Channahon police K-9 was called to the scene and tracked Durr’s path through the woods. “[The K-9] quickly located a loaded .40-caliber Hi-Point semiautomatic pistol about 30 feet into the timber from the business parking lot,” Allen said.

Durr, of the 300 block of Hickory Avenue in Romeoville, was arrested and booked into the Will County jail on charges of possession of a firearm by a street gang member, unauthorized possession of a firearm, resisting arrest, driving with a suspended license, driving without insurance and obstructed windows.

PLAINFIELD – A Plainfield man was arrested Tuesday on charges of surreptitiously videotaping his neighbors last year.

John M. Migetz, 57, turned himself in about 2:30 p.m. at the Will County jail and was released nearly three hours later after posting a $100,000 bond. Migetz has been charged with felony counts of unauthorized videotaping and videotaping a minor.

John M. Plainfield Sgt. Mike Migetz Fisher said Migetz’s wife called police Nov. 3 to the Migetz residence in the 24300 block of Hemlock Drive.

Shorewood holds hearing on potential TIF district

By ALLISON SELK

Shaw Media correspondent The Shorewood Village Board held a public hearing before its regular Tuesday meeting about a proposed redevelopment plan and project, designation of a redevelopment area and adoption of a tax increment financing district proposed at Jefferson Street and Route 59.

The board room only had a few open seats, as residents of the affected district were notified of the proposed TIF district multiple times since September.

Attorney Mary Thompson of Kane, McKenna and Associates of Chicago gave a presentation to residents and the board of trustees.

First, she explained a TIF district in terms of financing and what it can mean for the residents of the areas. According to her presentation, a TIF is “a flexible financing tool for municipalities to promote redevelopment. It allows villages to designate TIF districts that are to be developed or redeveloped.”

“The background and primary focus of this TIF is to help develop commercial retail. When you do that, it contributes significantly to the health of the community and potential redevelopment for underutilized properties – we

have several in this area,” Thompson said. “Not going to pick any out in particular, but you know where there are vacancies and difficulties getting in and out, ingress and egress into certain shopping centers, a library that is kind of buried – all of those kinds of things are going to be addressed.”

Thompson went over state statutes the village must adhere to in order to create a TIF district. The first was the creation of a TIF plan and second was an eligibility report. Thompson said her team worked with the village, trustees and staff to develop this area, and through comprehensive planning of the village, they identified TIF as a tool to encourage economic development.

Thompson proactively raised the question “Why now?,” and she explained the significance of the timing for the TIF district in Shorewood.

“We are still in this economic downturn, and the recession has impacted nearly all revenue sources for the municipality. We have to get development in here to provide assistance – that is what a TIF [district] is. We also have competition with other municipalities, which all have TIF districts.

Thompson further explained to the residents during her presentation that TIF does not change the tax rates; it cap-

tures increases in tax revenues without any changes to tax rates.

“When a municipality establishes a TIF [district], the base equalized assessed valuation for that area is frozen,” Thompson said. “It doesn’t mean you are not going to get a tax bill, doesn’t mean your taxes won’t go up – it won’t be because of the TIF district.”

She went on to give an example that if the EAV was frozen at $10,000 through attrition or economic development, the area would be at $25,000, which leaves $15,000 in increment funds. The $10,000 goes back to where it always went – to all of the taxing districts. That $15,000 of new taxes or increment can be used for TIF eligible expenses within that TIF district.

Thompson said that because of tax bills being a year after the assessments, if a business came to Shorewood right after the TIF district was established, it would take about three years to see a property tax increase. She said that a TIF can be in place for 23 years but it does not have to be. Its longevity is up to village discretion.

Questions were raised by residents concerning particular projects the village would seek with the TIF funds, and village attorney Dave Silverman said that as of now, there are not any

projects set, as engineers and the village staff need to determine the greatest needs.

Silverman stated that no action could be taken on the TIF district Tuesday, as it was a public hearing, but he said that the proposal legally can be on the agenda 14 days after the public hearing. He urged residents to watch the agendas posted online if they wished to attend the proper meeting.

Village of Shorewood Community Development Director Karen James said information including maps of the particular TIF district can be found at vil.shorewood.il.us under the “Proposed TIF District” link.

The main action item for the meeting was the approval of a resolution authorizing participation in the Northern Illinois Municipal Electric Collaborative and authorizing the village administrator to approve a contract with the lowest cost electricity provider for a period of up to three years.

Village of Shorewood Finance Director/Treasurer Anne Burkholder said the village has been a part of this program since 2008, and it allows NIMEC to negotiate electric contracts for government agencies, grouping them together to increase more buying power and lower group rates.

POLICE REPORTS

Will County schools waiting on mandated payments Funds cover needs such as special education staff, transportation

By FELIX SARVER

fsarver@shawmedia.com JOLIET – School districts in Will County still are waiting on state payments that cover needs such as special education personnel and transportation funding.

Plainfield Community Consolidated School District 202, Joliet Public Schools District 86, Joliet Township High School District 204 and Lincoln-Way Community High School District 210 still are owed $9.8 million, $6.6 million, $1.8 million and $1.7 million in mandated categorical payments, respectively.

Mandated categorical funds are earmarked for special education personnel, funding for children, private tuition, summer school, transportation and other items.

District 86 Superintendent Theresa Rouse said the state has been making late categorical payments since the late 2000s, and districts learn to modify

or adapt to the situation.

She said the district still is meeting its payroll and has no immediate issues.

“This is just about making us whole and having all the pieces we need,” Rouse said of the payments.

District 86 still is waiting on $275,109 from fiscal 2016, about $3 million that’s more than 90 days late, and another payment of $3.3 million that is approaching 30 days late, district spokeswoman Sandy Zalewski said in an email.

District 210 Superintendent Scott Tingley said the lack of timely payments causes the district to increase its short-term borrowing and in turn causes the district to pay more in interest.

“When you’re talking millions of dollars, that’s significant to our operation,” Tingley said.

Illinois comptroller spokesman Abdon Pallasch said the state hasn’t had a budget in two years, and there’s a lot of bills that have yet to be paid as a result.

Illinois has an $11 billion backlog of unpaid bills.

In his State of the State address Wednesday, Gov. Bruce Rauner urged lawmakers to work with him to resolve the budget crisis.

Rauner and a Democrat-controlled Legislature have been unable to reach a compromise.

Tingley said Thursday that District 210 officials met with consultants from the Illinois State Board of Education, and a discussion of the mandated categorical payments came up.

He said the ISBE has contacted the comptroller’s office about the issue, and “everyone is waiting to see what is happening in Springfield.”

District 202 spokesman Tom Hernandez said in an email that the dis-

trict received its last payment for fiscal 2016 but none for the current fiscal year. As a result, the district still is waiting on $9.8 million, about $5 million less than what it previously was owed in late December.

District 204 still is owed $1.8 million in mandated categorical payments, District 204 assistant superintendent for business services Ilandus Hampton said in an email.

Memorabilia from the Joliet Area Sports Hall of Fame has a new exhibit at the Joliet Area Historical Museum. The exhibit, which features local athletes spanning decades, will be at the museum through June.

In a Changing World, Some Things Never Change In changing times, it’s good to know some things haven’t changed—like Rathbun, Cservenyak & Kozol’s commitment to aggressive, competent legal representation that gets results.

William V. Kozol,

Eric Ginnard – eginnard@ shawmedia.com

• SPORTS EXHIBIT

Continued from page 3 School basketball star who was on the 1984 U.S. Olympics team.

The national and sometimes international scope of some of the stories told in the exhibit should appeal to visitors from other states and countries who come to the museum for its Route 66 Welcome Center, Peerbolte said.

“We want to share this story with the people who may not know it – for people who come to the museum for its Route 66 exhibit and may not know Joliet’s impact on sports,” he said.

Video displays include the “Super

Bowl Shuffle” done by the 1985 Bears, a tribute to Thayer; the broadcast of the final frame of Stefanich’s 300 game; and a documentary on Mikan, showing his famous hook shot and underhand free throws.

The museum is in the process of raising money for the permanent exhibit, which also will become home to the Joliet Area Sports Hall of Fame, now located at the Joliet Slammers’ stadium.

Peerbolte said the goal is to include interactive elements in the exhibit that will allow museumgoers to gather statistics and biographical information – and maybe even practice free throws with Mikan.

With eye on ’18, Rauner says ‘Don’t blame me’

By SARA BURNETT The Associated Press

SPRINGFIELD – With crises mounting around him, Gov. Bruce Rauner’s strategy for fending off potential Democratic challengers and keeping his job in 2018 includes stressing the bright spots while blaming others for the things going horribly wrong.

As a Republican in a solidly Democratic state, the wealthy former private equity investor would have been one of the country’s most endangered GOP incumbents even under the best of circumstances. Adding to his task are a state budget impasse that has dragged on for most of his two years in office, decimating many social service agencies and creating billions more in debt, and a labor dispute that has Illinois’ largest public-employee union holding its first strike-authorization vote.

Rauner didn’t make more than a fleeting reference to the budget until the end of his annual State of the State address Wednesday. Instead, he highlighted accomplishments such as ethics reforms, increased funding for

Democrats pounced. One possible 2018 challenger, U.S. Rep. Cheri Bustos, called him an “epic failure,” while the head of the Illinois Federation of Teachers wondered where Rauner, who owns nine homes, has spent the past two years.

“It’s like he’s not living in Illinois,” Dan Montgomery said.

The Democratic Governors Association, which considers Illinois a top-tier race, suggested Rauner’s State of the State could have been summed up in four words: “Getting worse every day.”

And state Sen. Kwame Raoul, who isn’t ruling out a bid, scoffed at Rauner’s attempts to shift blame to others.

Trump proposes tax on Mexican imports

By JULIE PACE and MARK STEVENSON The Associated Press

WASHINGTON – Determined to wall off America’s border with Mexico, President Donald Trump triggered a diplomatic clash and a fresh fight over trade Thursday as the White House proposed a 20 percent tax on imports from the key U.S. ally, and Mexican President Enrique Pena Nieto abruptly scrapped next week’s trip to Washington.

The swift fallout signaled a remarkable souring of relations between Washington and one of its most important international partners just days into the new administration. The U.S. and Mexico conduct some $1.6 billion a day in cross-border trade, and cooperate on everything from migration to anti-drug enforcement to major environmental issues.

At the heart of the dispute is Trump’s insistence that Mexico will pay for construction of the massive wall he has promised along the southern U.S. border. Trump on Wednesday formally ordered construction of the wall.

The plan was a centerpiece of Trump’s election campaign, although he never specified how Mexico would fund the project or how he would compel payments if Pena Nieto’s government refused.

The two leaders had been scheduled to discuss the matter at the White House next week. But Pena Nieto took to Twitter on Thursday to say he had informed the White House he would not be coming.

In a speech in Philadelphia later Thursday, Trump cast the cancellation as a mutual decision. He said that “unless Mexico is going to treat the United States fairly, with respect, such a meeting would be fruitless, and I want to go a different route. We have no choice.”

On the flight back to Wash-

A protester looks toward a circling helicopter as he demonstrates Thursday against President Donald Trump’s visit in Philadelphia. ington, Trump’s spokesman told reporters the president was considering the 20 percent import tax to foot the bill, the most specific proposal Trump has ever floated for how to cover a project estimated to cost between $12 billion and $15 billion.

“By doing that, we can do $10 billion a year and easily pay for the wall just through that mechanism alone,” Spicer said. “This is something that we’ve been in close contact with both houses in moving forward and creating a plan.”

Spicer said Trump was looking at taxing imports on all countries the U.S. has trade deficits with, but he added, “Right now we are focused on Mexico.”

But the announcement sparked immediate confusion across Washington, and the White House tried to backtrack. During a hastily arranged briefing in the West Wing, chief of staff Reince Priebus said a 20 percent import tax was one idea in “a buffet of options” to pay for the border wall.

A 20 percent tariff would represent a huge tax increase on imports to the U.S., raising the likelihood of costs being passed on to consumers. Half of all non-agricultural goods enter the U.S. duty free, ac-

cording to the office of the U.S. Trade Representative. The other half face import tariffs averaging 2 percent.

Mexico is one of America’s biggest trade partners, and the U.S. is the No. 1 buyer from that country, accounting for about 80 percent of Mexican exports. A complete rupture in ties could be damaging to the U.S. economy and disastrous for Mexico’s. And major harm to Mexico’s economy would surely spur more people to risk deportation, jail or even death to somehow cross the border to the U.S. – undercutting Trump’s major goal of stopping illegal immigration.

House GOP lawmakers and aides interpreted Spicer’s comments on a 20 percent border tax as an endorsement of a key plank of their own tax plan, which Speaker Paul Ryan has been working to sell to the president. The House GOP “border adjustability” approach would tax imports and exempt exports as a way of trying to help U.S. exporters and raise revenue.

Earlier this month, Trump called that concept confusing.

And during the White House’s cleanup efforts Thursday, Spicer wouldn’t say whether Trump agreed with the border adjustment tax being considered by the House GOP.

Trump wall doesn’t address crossings shift Border Patrol vehicles patrol the Sunland Park, N.M.-Ciudad Juarez, Mexico, border Wednesday. A border fence is visible at the center of the photo. Trump’s plan to build a wall overlooks the fact that many people who enter the U.S. illegally turn themselves in and ask for asylum.

By ELLIOT SPAGAT The Associated Press

SAN DIEGO – President Donald Trump’s plan to erect a wall along the Mexican border overlooks a key change in how people enter the U.S. illegally: Many of them make no attempt to jump a fence or evade authorities; they simply turn themselves in and ask for asylum.

Asylum requests have surged in recent years, especially since 2014, when families and unaccompanied children fleeing drug violence in Central America overwhelmed agents in Texas.

Those who express fear of returning home are often freed into the U.S. with a notice to appear before an immigration judge. It often takes years for the clogged courts to decide asylum cases.

“Migration is very, very different now,” Gil Kerlikowske, commissioner of U.S. Customs and Border Protection from 2014 until last week, said Thursday.

“People are coming up to our ports of entry, walking up and asking for some type of protection.”

CBP does not release numbers on how many migrants turn themselves in versus how many are caught trying to avoid capture, but a pronounced shift is underway.

Longtime Border Patrol agents said their jobs are increasingly about changing children’s diapers in holding facilities rather than chasing people through mountains and deserts.

Mark Morgan, who resigned under pressure Thursday as the Border Patrol chief only seven months after his

appointment, told a Senate panel last month that he never thought buying baby powder and baby wipes would be part of his job.

“I just got from one sector where agents, one of their jobs during the day is to actually make sure that the food, the burritos that were provided, are be-

ing warmed properly,” Morgan said. “It takes a tremendous amount of resources to do this.”

The 2,000-mile border has about 700 miles of fence, much of it built in California and Arizona during the second term of President George W. Bush, when crossers were predominantly Mexican men.

But that, too, has changed. In 2014, the number of Central Americans stopped by the Border Patrol surpassed the number of Mexicans for the first time. Many of them were women and children who turned themselves in. Also, a Pew Research Center study in 2015 found that more Mexicans were leaving the U.S. than entering, a dramatic reversal.

Border Patrol arrests – a key measure of illegal crossings – rose 23 percent to 415,815 during the 12-month period that ended Sept. 30, up from a 44-yearlow in the previous year. Still, it was the fifth-lowest tally since 1972 and was down 75 percent from a peak of nearly 1.7 million in 2000. Border arrests include some migrants who turn themselves in and ask for asylum.

A consultant’s report last year for the Homeland Security Department said asylum-seekers peaked in 2014 at 170,000, nearly triple the previous year’s 63,000.

NEW YORK – Scientists have grown human cells inside pig embryos, a very early step toward the goal of growing livers and other human organs in animals to transplant into people.

The cells made up just a tiny part of each embryo, and the embryos were grown for only a few weeks, researchers reported Thursday.

Such human-animal research has raised ethical concerns. The U.S. government suspended taxpayer funding of experiments in 2015. The new work, done in California and Spain, was paid for by private foundations.

Any growing of human organs in pigs is “far away,” said Juan Carlos Izpisua Belmonte of the Salk Institute in La Jolla, California, an author of the paper in the journal Cell.

He said the new research is “just a very early step toward the goal.”

Even before that is achieved, he said, putting human cells in animals could pay off for studies of how genetic diseases develop and for screening potential drugs.

Animals with cells from different species are called chimeras. Such mixing has been done before with mice and rats. Larger animals such as pigs would be needed to make human-sized organs.

That could help ease the shortage of human donors for transplants.

The Salk team is working on making humanized pancreases, hearts and livers in pigs. The animals would grow those organs in place of their own, and they’d be euthanized before the organ is removed.

Most of the organ cells would be human. By injecting pig embryos with stem cells from the person who will get the transplant, the problem of rejection should be minimized, said another Salk researcher, Jun Wu. Daniel Garry of the University of Minnesota, who is working on chimeras but didn’t participate in the new work, called the Cell paper “an exciting initial step for this entire field.”

The new paper reports that scientists used human stem cells, which are capable of producing a wide variety of specialized cells.

They injected pig embryos made in the lab with three to 10 of those cells apiece, and implanted the embryos into sows. At three to four weeks of development, 186 embryos were removed and examined.

Major changes may be coming to Medicare What’s going to happen to Medicare?

That’s not an insignificant question given the political shift in Washington.

Now, with Republicans controlling the presidency and both houses of Congress, some ideas they’ve been pushing for years have a chance of passing. Those ideas would drastically change the way Medicare works for those already on it and those joining in the next few years.

Medicare is wildly popular, but that popularity doesn’t necessarily translate into understanding of a very complex program, what’s happened to it, and what may happen. Writing about Medicare for nearly 30 years and watching it evolve, I’ve seen how easily Congress has already made big changes with hardly a peep from the press or the public.

The same could happen again. In this column, I discuss a few of those possible changes gleaned from my decades of experience covering the program.

Since the election, there’s been talk of “voucherizing” or privatizing Medicare, an idea Republicans have been pushing for 20 years. Under a fully privatized arrangement, Medicare would no longer be social insurance like Social Security but more like Obamacare, with everyone eventually buying their coverage from private insurance companies.

Beneficiaries would receive a

GUEST VIEW Trudy Lieberman sum of money, likely to be called “premium support” instead of the more dire-sounding “voucher,” to help buy their coverage. The amount of support and how well it would keep pace with medical inflation would be buried in the details Congress would hash out.

Today, the government provides the benefits for hospital and physician care for most Medicare beneficiaries, but that could change with more privatization. There already is a lot of privatization in Medicare, and it came about step by step – usually with both political parties in agreement and lots of buzz words such as “consumer choice” to sell changes to the public.

The long steady march toward Medicare Advantage plans now used by about one-third of all beneficiaries and the prescription drug benefit are privatized insurance programs within Medicare. Seniors in MA plans give up their traditional, standardized Medicare benefits for doctor and hospital services and buy them from insurers who receive subsidies from the government.

In a totally privatized arrangement, there might be no standardized benefits, and seniors would choose from a menu of insurance company

options, much the way drug plans are sold today.

It’s too early to say whether Congress will push for premium support this year. Democrats already have signaled they will fight back. It’s more likely that other changes could slip through that would radically alter Medicare and force beneficiaries to pay a lot more for their care.

One of them is a change in the rules on balance billing: physicians charging seniors and disabled people on the program more than what Medicare will pay. Most doctors accept Medicare’s payment as payment in full. Those who don’t can charge patients only 15 percent more than Medicare’s payment. This limit offers protection against the high balance billing charges patients with other kinds of insurance are facing.

The nominee for secretary of health and human services, Tom Price, is no fan of the 15 percent rule and once proposed eliminating it, which may explain why he has gotten such a strong endorsement from the American Medical Association. The AMA has called Price a leader in developing public policy to advance patient choice and “reduce excessive regulatory burdens.” Many doctors who work with Medicare patients would like to charge as much as they want.

Congress may try to shift costs another way. The objective is to reduce what the government pays for benefi-

ciaries’ care by making them pay more themselves. One solution is to combine the deductibles for hospital and physician care into one, and impose an out-of-pocket spending cap for beneficiaries still enrolled in traditional Medicare.

Two-thirds of beneficiaries are.

Currently, no such cap exists. (Seniors in MA plans do face such caps – last year as high as $6,700.)

If seniors in the traditional program also buy a Medigap plan, it’s possible they have what’s called “first dollar coverage.” That means medical expenses are covered from the beginning.

Congress has already begun to take that protection away. Beginning in 2020, insurers can no longer sell certain Medigap plans that provide for the first dollar coverage beneficiaries want. However, if you have such a policy, you can keep it.

Medicare does face some long-term funding shortfalls, and so far the acceptable solution is to require that seniors pay more rather than raise taxes for everyone or impose cost controls with teeth, which doctors, hospitals, drug companies and other health care providers don’t want. I will explore all that, including negotiating pharmaceutical prices, in a future column.

WRESTLING: MOUNT CARMEL 41, PROVIDENCE CATHOLIC 21

IMPRESSIVE FINISH

Mount Carmel rolls past Providence

By CURT HERRON

cherron@shawmedia.com NEW LENOX – Thursday’s Chicago Catholic League dual meet between the wrestling teams from Providence Catholic and Mount Carmel figured to be a very competitive one.

After all, both squads came in ranked in the top five in the state in Class 3A, the Celtics had edged the Caravan for second place in both the Dvorak and CCL tournaments and the squads had combined to lose just three duals against top Illinois opponents this season.

And the first half of the dual was indeed competitive, with No. 4 Providence holding a misleading 21-9 lead over No. 5 Mount Carmel midway through the competition.

But the second half of the dual meet was all Caravan as they captured victories in the final seven matches and rattled off 32 straight points to claim a 41-21 win.

“They do have the experience over us, but no excuses,” Celtics coach Keith Healy said. “We just came out a little flat, and they didn’t. Today they just wanted it a little more than we did. We have to make sure that everything is in line, and today it wasn’t. We had to juggle the lineup a little bit, but those are excuses. They just came out and outwrestled us.”

The Celtics, who only have been beaten in Illinois by No. 3 Marmion Academy and Mount Carmel, now must shift their focus to try to win what is arguably the state’s toughest regional in their class. The Lockport Regional features four ranked teams, including the top-ranked Porters.

With all of the good individuals from other schools, it will be real interesting to see what happens.”

Although the Celtics didn’t have

106-pounder Jacob Lindsey in their lineup, they still only managed to win five matches, and the Caravan, whose only dual-meet losses have come against Lockport and Marmion, very easily could have finished with a couple of other wins.

Providence’s Catholic’s Cole Smith has the back of Mount Carmel’s Jack Mulay at 160 pounds Thursday at Providence Catholic High School.

VIEWS Dick Goss Redbirds’ roster contained five high school All-American – Cyrus Mann, Billy Lewis and Rick Witlow, in addition to Powell and Hawkins.

As a senior, Powell led a 20-win team in scoring. Later, he had a tryout with the Indiana Pacers. At the 40-year-old World Masters Game, Powell scored 46 points and was the game MVP. In his article, Powell referred to the time he spent at ISU as “the glory years.” Of course, the Redbirds have had many other strong teams in the four decades since then. This one could be among the best.

ISU is coached by Dan Muller, with ex-Joliet Township/Joliet West coach Luke Yaklich, formerly an assistant under Muller, in his first season as the associate head coach. The Redbirds are 17-4 overall and 9-0 in the

Missouri Valley Conference. As an ISU alumnus, Powell is fired up.

Of course, he also is excited about what is happening with his son, former Joliet Township all-stater Roger Powell Jr., another topic in our discussion.

Roger Jr., along with James Augustine (Lincoln-Way Central), were instrumental in the success of the last outstanding team at Illinois.

After a brief NBA career, Augustine has played overseas. He is with CSKA Moscow of the VBT United League.

Powell played professionally for a few years, then went into coaching. He had been the assistant coach for five years under Bryce Drew at Valparaiso. When Drew landed the head coaching job at Vanderbilt last spring, Powell accompanied him and is the Commodores’ associate head coach.

The feeling here is Roger Jr. will be a Division I head coach some day.

This season, Vanderbilt’s young team carries a modest 9-11 record. However, the Commodores did pull a major

upset last Saturday when they won at No. 19 Florida, 68-66.

BOLINGBROOK CONNECTION

The current Bolingbrook roster features senior Nana Akenten, who will play at Nebraska. He hopes to follow in the footsteps of two Raiders of recent vintage who continue to help lead successful Division I teams.

Senior forward Ben Moore is averaging 31.3 minutes, 11.9 points, 7.7 rebounds, 2.2 assists, 1.1 blocks and 0.7 steals through 22 games for SMU (18-4, 8-1 in American Athletic Conference).

He is shooting .577 from the field and .650 from the free-throw line.

Sophomore guard Prentiss Nixon is averaging 30.0 minutes, 13.1 points, 2.3 rebounds, 1.8 assists and 0.9 steals through 21 games for Colorado State (13-8, 5-3 in Mountain West). He is shooting .390 from the field, .326 from 3-point range and .854 (76 of 89) from the free-throw line.

COLLEGE BASKETBALL

Defense fuels Illinois State’s 10-game win streak

By LUKE MEREDITH The Associated Press

NORMAL – The secret to how Illinois State became one of the nation’s biggest surprises is hardly a secret at all.

“We play fast. We play hard,” senior guard Paris Lee said.

The Redbirds are also quietly playing as well as anyone in the country – especially on defense.

Illinois State (17-4, 9-0 MVC) has won 10 straight, a stretch that includes a win over Valley powerhouse Wichita State, and is 9-0 in the league for the first time since 1983.

The Redbirds are rolling behind a ferocious defensive attack that ranks third nationally in opposing field-goal percentage at 36.9 and is averaging close to eight steals a game.

Illinois State, which also has posted an average scoring margin of plus-14 in league games, beat Indiana State, 71-66, on Wednesday.

“We are guarding at a high level.

Defensively, we haven’t had a bad game in about 12 games. And when you do that, you’re going to have a chance every night,” said fifth-year coach Dan Muller, who has former Joliet West coach Luke Yaklich as

his associate head coach.

Like many mid-major programs that seem to come out of nowhere, Muller and the Redbirds needed time to get where they are.

Muller, a former Illinois State player who helped lead the program to its last NCAA Tournament appearance in 1998, returned to his alma mater in 2012 after a 12-year stint as an assistant at Vanderbilt.

Muller got the Redbirds going right away, winning 18 games in each of his first two seasons.

Illinois State made the NIT in 2014-15 after losing the Valley title game, and in 2015-16 Illinois State went 12-6 in the Valley, its best league mark in eight years.

Muller has built the program behind a hard-nosed style that players say has helped them become more disciplined.

Lee said Muller is as hard on the seniors as he is the freshmen, which has fostered an atmosphere of camaraderie and accountability.

“Coach believes in us. He lets us play,” senior forward Deontae Hawkins said.

The Redbirds were picked second in the MVC preseason poll. But injuries left them with a thin rotation in November and December, and they

ence play.

But senior guard Tony Wills, who Muller said is one of the best perimeter defenders in the Valley, and 7-foot-1 center Daouda Ndiaye got healthy ahead of league play – and the Redbirds took off.

In league play, Illinois State has allowed only two opponents to score more than 62 points.

“We haven’t changed much. We play some zone, we play some man,” Muller said. “We’ve guarded things the same way we guarded them back in November. We’re just doing it a lot better.”

Hawkins (15.2 points, 7.0 re bounds per game), MiKyle McIntosh (13.5 points, 6.4 rebounds) and Lee (12.9 points, 5.3 assists) lead a veteran core that can put up points in bunches, winning six of its eight Valley games by at 10 points.

But the Redbirds say one of the best starts in school history is because of their commitment to team defense.

“You don’t want to be that guy that gets beat on defense because then you have to defer to your teammates like ‘Man. My bad, bro,’ ” Lee said. “We’re always there for each other, and I think that’s a big deal.”

The sellout crowd that witnessed the Joliet West at Bolingbrook boys basketball game Tuesday night was reminiscent of the old days.

Roger Powell Sr. stopped at our office this week, and we talked for a few minutes about the era when his teams at Joliet Central were accustomed to playing before full houses like that.

However, that wasn’t the reason Powell came in. He wanted to show me the “Redbird 4 Life” article that he was asked to write for the winter edition of Redbird Magazine, which covers Illinois State athletics. It contained a large dose of nostalgia.

For example, Powell was recruited to ISU by then-assistant coach Gene Smithson. He was the second high school All-American to sign at Illinois State in 1972. The other was Robert “Bubbles” Hawkins.

Doug Collins, the Olympian and future NBA star and NBA coach, was a senior when Powell was a freshman at ISU. Will Robinson was the head coach.

30 BEARS AT THE SENIOR BOWL

Bears getting thorough reports Coaches, scouts seeing more than prospects on film

By KEVIN FISHBAIN

kfishbain@profootballweekly.com MOBILE, Ala. – The head start that general manager Ryan Pace and coach John Fox are getting on knowing some of the top prospects for the 2017 NFL Draft is not lost on the Bears brass.

“We knew this would be a benefit coming down here. But being here fullfledged has been huge,” Pace said. “Being in the meetings, not just with our coaches but all our scouts have been in the meetings too, has been really good. Our coaches have done a good job

kind of creating an environment where with the players, we’re getting them to talk more. So we’re really getting a good feel for their football intelligence.

That’s been good.”

In those meeting rooms, it’s not simply how well the players absorb the information they’re learning from Bears coaches. While other teams are limited to interviews with players, the Bears can put a prospect on the spot and Ryan Pace see how he responds.

“Instead of our coaches standing in front of the room and talking the whole time, it’s hearing the players talk more and kind of going over things,” Pace said. “You can feel their football intelligence the more they talk. That’s been the best part. We’ve got different scouts in each position room. So that’s been good.”

This is the first time Fox has coached the Senior Bowl, and he reiterated the importance of seeing the players in a practice setting.

“A bunch of it is just how they interact with their teammates, the emotion they practice with, some of the things you maybe don’t see on game tape when you’re studying college players,” Fox said. “It’s how they learn, how coachable they are. Are they not making the same mistakes over. We’ve actually gotten to do three different film sessions as far as evaluating a practice.”

When the position coaches go through their drills with the prospects they can look for certain things that will tell them and the scouts something about that player’s skill set, adding another line to a scouting report.

“There’s ways to isolate these guys into athletic movements that we

want to see,” Pace said. “We were just talking about that with the corners.

There’s things that you can do that can kind of expose them, whether it’s their hip stiffness or their plant-and-drive quickness. Those guys will do things to kind of exploit that, good or bad.”

When Pace isn’t in meetings or watching practice, he’s watching tape on veteran free agents, preparing to add talent to the Bears in early March.

The grind is the norm for the former scout, and Pace lives for the actual football that takes place in Mobile.

“This is one of my favorite parts right here, because it’s real football,” he said. “It’s not just combine work.

It’s not guys in shorts. It’s real football.

We get to see their instincts and their toughness and their physicality and how fast they’re picking up our offense or defense. So this is probably my favorite part.”

Area O-linemen Dan Feeney, Ethan Pocic working toward NFL Draft Feeney gets to play for the Bears coaches during the week

By KEVIN FISHBAIN

kfishbain@profootballweekly.com MOBILE, Ala. – Offensive linemen from the Chicago area don’t have to look far for players to aspire to play like in the trenches.

At the Senior Bowl, LSU center Ethan Pocic, who played his high school ball at Lemont, and Indiana guard Dan Feeney, who played at Carl Sandburg, have a few Bears O-linemen, current and former, they enjoy watching.

“Olin Kreutz was a mean dude on the field. Loved him. I thought he was awesome. I thought he was a bad [expletive] for sure,” said Pocic, who is playing for the South team. “[Roberto] Garza, that’s a strong, mean dude.

Kyle Long, he’s a big, athletic guy. He’s a freak. … Cody Whitehair is a beast, too.”

Feeney said being a Bears fan is “a way of life” as someone born and raised in Orland Park. He, too, has enjoyed watching the Bears’ recent interior O-linemen.

“Garza, I loved how he played. A tough, hard-nosed type of guy,” Feeney

Dan Feeney, who was born and raised in Orland Park, played guard for Indiana and is getting ready for the NFL draft. said. “… [Long’s] a great player. I think the Bears did well picking him up.”

Feeney gets to play for the North team and John Fox’s coaching staff.

For the lifelong Bears fan, it’s been an eye-opening experience.

“It’s really cool. Seeing that, you’ve got to take a step back and say, ‘Wow,

this is a good opportunity.’ This is great,’ ” he said. “It’s a humbling experience when you look back at it. It’s one of the best organizations in the world.

It’s great to be working with them and their entire staff.”

Pocic’s older brother, Graham, played for the University of Illinois

– Ethan said he wanted to “do his own thing” by going to LSU – but he has looked up to Graham, who spent a brief time with the Bears in training camp in 2014.

“My brother, he set the bar high,” he said. “I was always trying to chase him. Still am. He taught me how to work hard and love the game and put everything you’ve got in it.”

Feeney is trying to be the next Sandburg High School alum to make it in the NFL, following in the footsteps of Michael Schofield, who’s started 29 games along the Broncos’ O-line the past two seasons.

“It’s kind of cool. He paved the way for me, you could say, coming out of Sandburg,” he said. “Won the Super Bowl last year, that’s huge. It doesn’t surprise me at all.”

As a former teammate of Jordan Howard’s, Feeney enjoyed watching the Bears running back break the franchise rookie record for rushing yards.

“That’s my dude. I love him,” he said. “I loved blocking for him, I love his style of play. It really doesn’t surprise me that he broke the rushing record. That’s just what he does. He’s a grinder, blue-collar attitude, he’s willing to run you over every play.”

Pocic, who is big for a center at 6-6, 307 pounds with 325⁄8-inch arms, is expected to be a mid-to-late-round pick, while Feeney could be the first guard

Defense in need of DBs who can force turnovers

By KEVIN FISHBAIN

kfishbain@profootballweekly.com

• Friday, January 27, 2017

MOBILE, Ala. – The Bears’ search for new players on defense to help improve after a franchise-worst season of creating turnovers began this week at the Senior Bowl.

General manager Ryan Pace, coach John Fox, defensive coordinator Vic Fangio and defensive backs coach Ed Donatell will leave Mobile with plenty of knowledge of the defensive backs on the North team they are coaching.

“Just guys that show that they have the ball skills to No. 1 catch it, to find it and make a play on the ball,” Fangio said of what he’s looking for from the draft prospects. “Some guys have the innate ability to do that, and some guys don’t.

Usually you can see it right away if they have the opportunities in practice, so I’d like to think we’ve given them enough opportunities to show that either in an individual drill or in competitive situations.”

Helping Fangio in identifying difference-making defensive backs is new Bears assistant coach Roy Anderson, who will work primarily with the safeties, the Bears’ most troubled position on defense last season and for most of the past decade.

“You’ve just got to stress it,” Anderson said of how to improve at taking

away the ball. “The more and more you stress it in meetings and practices, then I think the players click with it. That’s one thing we try to do everywhere I’ve been – stress those turnovers, stress trying to make plays on the ball down the field.

“And then also just repetition and practice. When you get to practice, it’s, ‘Hey, we’ve got to strip the ball out.

We’ve got to get picks.’ And then once you stress it over and over again, I think it really sticks with them, and then they go out there and do it.”

For a Bears team with a big need in the secondary, the top defensive backs on the roster they’re coaching in Mobile are Michigan corner Jourdan Lewis, Iowa corner Desmond King, Connecticut safety Obi Melifonwu and West Virginia corner Rasul Douglas.

Year 2 for Floyd: The Bears can create more turnovers with more pass rush, and that’ll come from an improved Leonard Floyd, who showed flashes in his 12 games. Fangio wants to see Floyd in better shape to start his second season.

“Get him in better shape and keep him available so he can go through a whole offseason and a whole training camp to where he can play,” Fangio said.

“That one stretch in the middle third of the season where he was practicing and playing a good bit, you saw him make good strides, and then he had the couple concussions late in the season, which slowed him down. If we can get him out there and playing and participating, he’ll be fine.”

Fangio has been coaching Floyd’s position, the outside linebackers, in Mobile after Clint Hurtt’s contract was not renewed. The veteran coordinator said he usually spends more time with the

Troy OT Antonio Garcia getting valuable reps vs. top talent

By KEVIN FISHBAIN

kfishbain@profootballweekly.com MOBILE, Ala. – While a player like Deshaun Watson may not need to go to the Senior Bowl to raise his draft profile, small-school prospects can get a huge boost from the week in Mobile.

Troy offensive tackle Antonio Garcia is one of the top players at the Senior Bowl who did not play for a major college program. Standing at 6-63⁄8 and 293 pounds, Garcia looks the part with 32 7⁄ 8-inch arms and knows that this week is crucial for him to show NFL evaluators what he can do against top talent.

“I just want to prove that since I’m from Troy, a smaller school, that I can compete with the best,” Garcia said

after Thursday’s South team practice.

“I hope I’ve done that.”

Garcia played in every game his last three seasons at Troy, priding himself on showing durability after missing time his freshman year. He values that trait, one synonymous with the player he looks up to at his position.

“My favorite tackle is Joe Thomas, basically just because he’s never missed a snap in 10 years,” Garcia said. “He’s just a warrior. He’s been to the Pro Bowl 10 times. He’s my favorite.”

Working with the Browns’ coaches this week, Garcia is getting drilled on technique.

set every time, punching my hands on time, getting my timing down,” he said.

Troy hasn’t had a player drafted since 2012, but is a program that has sent DeMarcus Ware, Osi Umenyiora and Leodis McKelvin to the NFL. Garcia said Ware came back to Troy this year to speak to the players. Garcia will end his school’s recent draft drought and maybe get a lift from his performance this week.

“The coaches put a lot of information on us, but I feel like I have a pretty decent handle on it,” he said. “I’ve just been taking everything in stride.”

Here are some Quick Hits from Thursday’s Senior Bowl practices …

• During the North practice, Nebraska safety Nate Gerry picked off a deflected pass. Just a shade below

6-foot-2, Gerry has good size for the secondary.

• The run defense for the North had a spirited performance during team drills led by Michigan DT Ryan Glasgow.

• For the South team, Florida linebacker Alex Anzalone has had a strong week, showing the ability to flow quickly to the ball.

• LSU wide receiver Travin Dural showed off his speed on a reverse. He has decent size, too, for a player that fast at 6-foot-1.

• LSU cornerback Tre’Davious White has an ankle injury and won’t play in the game. Injuries kept Alabama linebacker Ryan Anderson, Texas A&M safety Justin Evans and Auburn safety Rudy Ford out of practice.

32 JETS 5, BLACKHAWKS 3

Little, late goals help Jets beat Blackhawks

By JAY COHEN

The Associated Press CHICAGO – Andrew Copp and Bryan Little scored in a 32-second span in the third period, and the Winnipeg Jets beat the Blackhawks, 5-3, on Thursday night for their fourth straight victory against the Hawks this season.

Little, Copp, rookie Patrik Laine and Mark Scheifele each had a goal and an assist, helping the Jets to their third win in their last nine games.

Connor Hellebuyck made 38 saves on the final night before the NHL All-Star break.

The Hawks had a 3-2 lead before Copp tipped Josh Morrissey’s shot past Scott Darling with 4:03 left. Little then blasted a shot by Darling for his 13th of the season, silencing the crowd of 21,746.

Scheifele added an empty-netter at 17:57 for his 22nd goal, moving the center into a tie with Laine for the team lead.

Duncan Keith, Nick Schmaltz and Tanner Kero scored for the Hawks (30-

16-5), who were coming off a 5-2 loss to Tampa Bay on Tuesday. Darling finished with 28 stops.

Winnipeg also scored two goals in a 42-second span in the first, continuing a disturbing trend for the Hawks.

COLLEGE BASKETBALL ROUNDUP

The Hawks allowed two in 46 seconds against Vancouver on Sunday, and then surrendered a pair of goals in 30 seconds against the Lightning.

Kero’s fourth of the season, finishing a slick passing sequence with Pat-

rick Kane, gave the Hawks a 3-2 lead at 16:37 of the second. The Hawks had a couple more opportunities after taking the lead, but Hellebuyck held them off until the Jets put together their strong finish.

Winnipeg jumped in front in the first when Little made a great pass across the ice to Laine, who drove a one-timer by Darling for a power-play goal at 6:16. Laine returned Tuesday after missing eight games with a concussion.

Jacob Trouba then had a big slap shot go off the right skate of Hawks defenseman Brian Campbell and past Darling, with Shawn Matthias getting his stick on the puck just before it crossed the line. It was Matthias’ seventh of the season.

The Hawks, who controlled much of the early action, then got one back after Nic Petan was whistled for hooking at 13:02. Just 5 seconds into the ensuing power play, Keith drove a slap shot

by Hellebuyck from the left point with the Hawks center Artem Anisimov providing a perfect screen in front.

Northwestern beats Nebraska Tiger Woods stumbles home The ASSOCIATED PRESS

EVANSTON – Dererk Pardon dominated with 19 points and a career-high 22 rebounds to lead Northwestern to a 73-61 victory over struggling Nebraska on Thursday night.

Pardon, a sophomore, had the first 20-rebound game for Northwestern since Evan Eschmeyer grabbed 21 against Penn State on Jan. 20, 1999.

Vic Law scored 20, and the Wildcats (17-4, 6-2 Big Ten) won their fifth straight to match their longest streak in conference play since the 1965-66 season.

Tai Webster led Nebraska with 23 points. Glynn Watson Jr. scored 14, but the Cornhuskers (9-11, 3-5) dropped their fifth in a row after a 3-0 start in the Big Ten. The Wildcats were leading 57-53 when Law hit two free throws with just under five minutes remaining in the game to start a 16-1 run.

Bryant McIntosh stole a pass that hit Nebraska’s Evan Taylor and fed Law for an alley-oop. Cornhuskers coach Tim Miles picked up a technical after pointing to a spot where he thought Pardon stepped out of bounds after grabbing a defensive rebound. That led to two free throws for McIntosh, mak-

ing it 63-53 with 4:12 remaining.

Michigan 90, Indiana 60: At Ann Ar-

bor, Michigan, Derrick Walton scored 21 points on a nearly flawless night for Michigan, and the Wolverines routed Indiana, 90-60, on Thursday night for their most lopsided victory over the Hoosiers since 1998.

Moe Wagner scored 14 points for the Wolverines (14-7, 4-4 Big Ten) and Duncan Robinson added 13. Michigan went 11 of 20 from 3-point range and was never seriously threatened after racing out to an early 14-point lead. It was the largest margin of victory for Michigan in the series since a 112-64 win in 1998.

Indiana (14-7, 4-4) nearly matched Michigan’s torrid shooting in the first half, but the Hoosiers trailed 50-35 at halftime because they couldn’t take care of the ball. The second half wasn’t much different. Indiana finished the game with 16 turnovers to Michigan’s six. Robert Johnson led Indiana with 14 points.

Michigan jumped out to an 18-4 lead and led 26-9 after a 3-pointer by Robinson. At that point, Indiana coach Tom Crean called his second timeout of the half, but it was no use. A 3-pointer by backup big man Mark Donnal put Michigan up 32-13.

to a 76 in return at Torrey Pines

SAN DIEGO – The return of Tiger Woods felt more like a celebration Thursday at Torrey Pines.

Hundreds of fans lined up against the railing behind the 18th grandstand to watch Woods walk onto the first tee for his first PGA Tour event in 17 months. Thousands more stood behind every inch of rope from tee-togreen, and they were six-deep in spots around the green. As he made the turn, workers filled three balconies at the Scripps Clinic. No other player brings this much energy to a golf course.

Now he just has to bring his game.

Woods battled to save par, and then he fell apart during a six-hole stretch on the back nine and stumbled to a 4-over 76 in the Farmers Insurance Open. It wasn’t his worst score on the fabled South Course at Torrey Pines, though it was his highest score of his career in the first round of a new year.

“I let it slip away in the middle part of the back nine,” Woods said. “And unfortunately, didn’t hit very good shots.”

Woods wound up 11 shots behind Justin Rose , who opened with a 65 on the shorter North Course with the new and smooth greens. Adam Hadwin of Canada, who shot 59 last week in the California desert, had the low score on the South at 66.

It was a rude welcome back to the PGA Tour, and to Torrey Pines, where Woods has won eight times as a pro.

He had not played on the PGA Tour since Aug. 23, 2015, when he tied for 10th in the Wyndham Championship.

Two back surgeries followed, and Woods missed all of 2016 until returning at an unofficial event with an 18man field and no cut in the Bahamas the first week in December.

This was different in so many ways.

Along with fighting his swing – he didn’t hit a fairway after No. 7 – and coping with thick rough he had not seen since the 2015 PGA Championship, Woods said he had a hard time adjusting to the pace of play from being in threesomes.

“It’s just weird to say this, but it was just we were playing so much slower than I’m used to,” he said. “It was just weird waiting that much.”

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

PLAINFIELD – Lori Rader-Day wrote her first novel in 2007 while completing her master of fine arts program.

When the program ended, Rader-Day, of Indiana, slid the manuscript into a drawer and began another novel.

Two published mysteries and seven years later, Rader-Day, during a creative dry spell, dusted it off and revised it. Harper Collins will release “The Day I Died” in April.

Certainly this makes Rader-Day, a Mary Higgins Clark and Anthony Award-winning author, qualified to discuss revisions, which she will do Monday at the Plainfield Public Library.

For new writers, writers that participated in National Novel Writing Month – which is held each year in November – or any writer that finds the self-editing process daunting, Rader-Day will reassure writers that the hardest part – creating that initial draft – is behind them.

“The blank page is always scary,” Rader-Day said. “Revision is shaping, molding and making something better.”

During her one-hour workshop – and in the handouts she will distribute – Rader-Day will explain why the 50,000 words NaNoWriMo requires of participants does not , in fact, count as a complete story by industry standards.

She also will clarify the meaning of “revision.” New writers often equate the term with proofreading or copy editing. Proofreading is an important part of the process but not until revision is complete.

“We’re not talking about moving commas around,” Rader-Day said.

Rader-Day also will guide attendees through revising their work at various levels. This will include guidelines for looking at each chapter, paragraph and sentence, as well as character development and plot.

Often, the imagery the writer intends to write doesn’t end up on the page – until the revision process.

“Revising is your way to getting to the story you meant to write,” Rader-day said. “Revision gets you closer to making your story as great as you thought it to be.”

How long does revising take? For Rader-Day’s first two novels, “The Black Hour” (2014) and “Little Pretty Things” (2015), Rader-Day spent a year per book, but she was working full-time, too, she said.

If you go n WHAT: Novel Writing Workshop with

award-winning mystery author Lori Rader-Day n WHEN: 7 to 8 p.m. Monday WHERE: Plainfield Public Library, 15025 S. Illinois St., Plainfield n ETC.: Writers may bring writing samples for Rader-Day to assess. n REGISTER: http://shawurl.com/2zqs n INFORMATION: For information about the workshop, call the library at 815-4366639.

ABOVE: Lori Rader-Day, a Mary Higgins Clark and Anthony Award-winning author, will discuss the revision process of writing on Monday at the Plainfield Public Library. TOP RIGHT: Harper Collins will release “The Day I Died” in April. This was Lori Rader-Day’s first novel, which she wrote in 2007 and kept in a drawer until she decided to revise it.

Now that Rader-Day is focusing only on her writing, she revised “The Day I Died” in six weeks.

Each novel is different and each writer’s situation is different. Rader-Day likes to revise to her best ability and then ask for help.

“I invite people to look at my work, tell me where they weren’t interested, where things lagged, where things were confusing,” Rader-Day said.

Beta readers can help here and so can a writer’s group, Rader-Day said, although she’s never belonged to one – yet.

But she did join the Mystery Writers of America’s Midwest Chapter, of which she is now president. She recalled that first meeting, armed with only an idea and passion for writing.

“I didn’t have an agent, and I didn’t have a contract,” Rader-Day said. “But I was introduced to a lot of people who helped make that happen.”

Rader-Day is also a board member of Sisters in Crime Chicagoland and a member of the International Thriller Writers. But Rader-Day’s biggest thrill as a writer was meeting Mary Higgins

Clark in person during one of Clark’s speaking engagements, An avid reader and writer even as a child, Rader-Day said she had read “everything” in the children’s section and wandered into the adult area, where she discovered Clark. Rader-Day was 12.

But then came a point in Rader-Day’s life where Rader-Day, who once worked in public relations for higher institutions and health care, wrote only for work.

Finally, Rader-Day decided to “put up or shut up.” She entered the MFA program at Roosevelt University and began writing short stories. Rader-Day said one story grew very long until her professor said, “This isn’t a short story.

This is a novel. Keep writing.”

“That’s how I wrote my first novel,” Rader-Day said about the manuscript that is now the soon-to-be Harper Collins mystery. “I felt my way.”

Zachary Laoutides of Chicago, co-owner of indie studio Ave Fenix, appears in “Arise from Darkness.”

Former Joliet man releases indie film JOLIET – Former Joliet resident Zachary Laoutides of Chicago, the co-owner of indie studio Ave Fenix, recently released another film, “Arise from Darkness.”

The movie was filmed in Joliet and Aurora. It portrays the bruja culture, which translates to “witch” in Spanish.

The screenplay is based on stories coming out of Detroit, Joliet and Aurora.

The bruja’s function inside Latino neighborhoods was as a psychic or witch doctor often sought for advice, counsel and, many times, curses.

Many pay tribute to Santa Muerte, the angel of death (a saint to many in the Mexican culture).

Cast includes Laoutides as Lazaro, Monica Esmeralda Leon as Lazaro’s girlfriend and Galilea Mendoza of Aurora as Lazaro’s daughter, Maggie.

The film is nominated for awards and being picked up at film festivals.

It is available on video on demand and DVD. For information, visit www.avefenixpictures.com.

40 Study links alcohol to melanoma risk Dear Doctor: I always choose white wine over red. But a recent study linking white wine to increased melanoma risk made me reconsider. Am I overreacting?

Dear Reader: This is a difficult question without a simple answer – so let’s start with some basics. Alcohol metabolizes into the chemical acetaldehyde, which can cause DNA mutations that lead to cancer.

To date, alcohol has been associated with an increased risk of cancers of the breast, colon, liver and pancreas.

A 2014 analysis of many different studies published in the British Journal of Dermatology found an 18 percent increase in melanoma among people who drank more than one alcoholic beverage a day, regardless of the type. This analysis was based on retrospective studies, which are studies assessing people’s past habits after a diagnosis has been made.

Prospective studies follow patients before the diagnosis of disease. The research to which you’re referring was that type of study, and was published in the journal Cancer Epidemiology, Biomarkers and Prevention. For their analysis, researchers looked at data on disease outcomes from three studies of health care professionals and tied those outcomes to potential risk factors. The three studies combined followed a total of more than 210,000 people over a period of more than 18 years. In the studies, participants were asked to state their level of alcohol consumption and also to state what type of alcohol they consumed.

Researchers found overall, 1,374 people (less than 1 percent) ultimately were diagnosed with melanoma. Those who drank alcohol, however, had a 14 percent increase in the rate of melanoma, and that number increased to 21 percent in those who had one or more drink a day. Note that people

SUDOKU

ASK THE DOCTORS Robert Ashley who drank more alcohol also reported higher rates of smoking, caffeine intake and previous severe sunburns. The authors adjusted for this, so the data still appears relevant.

So yes, alcohol appears to slightly increase the risk of melanoma.

As for wine, some types – especially white wines – have more acetaldehyde and thus could have a greater ability to increase cancer risk than other types of alcohol. But when the authors looked at the type of alcohol consumed, the results between the three studies varied tremendously.

In one study, of male health care professionals, the researchers found a greater rate of melanoma among men who drank white wine one to three times a month compared to those who drank white wine two to four times a week. Even taking that finding into account, the authors overall found a 13 percent increased rate of melanoma with each drink of white wine a day. They did not find such a high rate with other types of drinks.

In summary, drinking alcohol does appear to slightly increase the risk of melanoma. While this study on the impact of white wine does not appear convincing, white wine drinkers should consider the fact acetaldehyde is carcinogenic and white wine has more acetaldehyde.

What your mother is proposing is the definition of helicopter parenting. If your boyfriend were to find out, it would be the end of your romance. Perhaps you should ask your mother how she would feel if your fiancé’s family hired a detective to shake your family tree. I’ll bet she wouldn’t like it one bit.

Dear Abby: I would like to see how other wives would handle this. I have a “friend” who constantly calls my husband her “boyfriend.” She’s married, and I’m sure this irks her spouse, too. Every time they come over, she has to give my husband a really big hug (she has a large chest).

I feel what she’s doing is inappropriate, and I want to know what you recommend to put a stop to this. It has reached the point I wish they would quit coming here. My husband and I both are polite people, but I would like for this to cease. – Polite Pat In The South Dear Polite Pat: I’m a wife, and here’s how I’d handle it. I would have your husband tell your friend privately her effusiveness is embarrassing and to please stop doing it. If he doesn’t feel comfortable doing this, talk to the woman yourself and tell her when she calls your husband her boyfriend, it offends you, and her husband should be her boyfriend.

Dear Abby: My mom told me when I get engaged, she is going to hire a PI to investigate my fiancé. I know parents can be concerned, but this seems to me like total paranoia.

She told me a story she saw in the news about a seemingly normal man who ended up killing people to steal their money to pay for his wedding. That’s scary, but I don’t think it warrants hiring a PI to follow my future fiancé around. I think my mom is going beyond being overprotective. What do you think? –

Him Dear Wants To Confront: Unless you are 100

ACROSS

N I G H

Dear Abby: I DEAR ABBY work in customer service and Jeanne was helping a Phillips guest. During my eight- to 10-minute chat with her, she showed me her phone. The wallpaper on her phone was a picture of the guest and her boyfriend in Times Square. Without mentioning it to the guest, I recognized her boyfriend as the husband of a friend of mine I’ll call Julie.

Julie and her husband have two young children. Part of me wants to confront him, but part of me says this would destroy a family. I have resolved to remain quiet unless I hear of marital difficulties, but would that be a disservice to my friend and her children? I feel like I’m carrying a grenade that may devastate many innocents. – Wants To Confront

FRIDAY HOROSCOPE

By EUGENIA LAST

Newspaper Enterprise Association TODAY – Emotional matters will surface this year. Don’t let a lack of preparation lead to regrets. Do whatever you can to turn any negative into a positive. Don’t let surprise developments cause you to give in. Show strength and courage and forge ahead.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) – You should question both your and other people’s motives.

Do your own thing. Know what you want and don’t stop until you get it. Change will lead to happiness.

PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) – Don’t limit what you can do. If someone tries to make your life difficult, look for a way to distance yourself.

Being able to bounce back will lead to your success.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) – Give a little and take a little. Balance will make the difference to whatever you pursue. Maintaining a clear vision and staying on course will ensure you reach your destination.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) – Your emotions will be difficult to control if you don’t like what’s happening around you. Don’t jump to conclusions. Sit tight, avoid discord and strive to make personal gains independently.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) – If you go with the flow, you will reach your destination. A chance to bring about positive personal change is within reach, as long as you limit your spending.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) – Invest in something that will promote you and what you have to offer. An imaginative approach to something you want to pursue will be regarded as brilliant.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) – Older and younger people in your life will offer insight into a dilemma you face. Taking the advice they offer will lead to good fortune and better relationships with a loved one.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) – Put your money behind your ideas. The detailed and colorful way you present what you have to offer will make it difficult for anyone to turn you down.

Romance is on the rise.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) – You should carefully pick with whom you want to spend time.

Avoid anyone who is negative or critical.

Lean toward people you know will be honest, resourceful and supportive.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) – Making travel plans or digging for information that will help you follow a dream looks promising. Check out different cultures and ways of living to find what you are looking for.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) – Use your intelligence and integrity to help you get what you want and need. If you try to avoid matters that need to be addressed, nothing will be gained.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) – Your experience will help you sidestep a pitfall that you’ve previously faced. Your intuitive intelligence won’t let you down. You’ll read situations accurately, making it easy for you to advance.

Romance should be a priority.

SATURDAY HOROSCOPE

By EUGENIA LAST

Newspaper Enterprise Association TODAY – Good fortune is hovering nearby. Making investments, mixing the old with the new and reconnecting with people who have helped you succeed in the past will turn out well. This is a year of achievement, so don’t sit on the sidelines when you can share your feelings and get out and take part.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) – Let your emotions lead the way. If you feel strongly about something or someone, take action and reveal your intentions. Personal change will boost your morale.

PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) – Work quietly on the projects that interest you most. Finish what

you start before you share or present what you have to offer. Personal achievements are favored.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) – Nurture important relationships and do your best to help a friend or an organization in need. Your generosity and ability to bring about positive change will be appreciated.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) – An opportunity will leave you wondering what to do next. Don’t give up your day job unless you have a better deal negotiated and in writing. It’s best to play it safe.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) – You need to put more effort and energy into getting things done on time. Organization and preparation will help you avoid a mishap. A former co-worker will

extend an invitation.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) – You’ll be tempted to get involved in a joint venture. Consider the expense you will incur if you move forward.

Get the go-ahead from someone who would be influenced by your decision before you say yes.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) – If you share your emotions, it will be liberating. If you want to make alterations to where or how you live, start the process and enjoy the outcome.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) – Be honest about what you can and cannot do and ask direct questions to ensure whoever you deal with is being straight with you as well. Fair play is essential.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) – Think big, but monitor your spending and be reasonable. Change can

be a good thing if it doesn’t put you in debt. Do the work yourself and cut your costs.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) – If you avoid meddling in other people’s affairs, you’ll sidestep a troublesome person. Personal gains will be yours if you focus on self-improvement and physical fitness.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) – Make your home a place of entertainment. Host a party or move things around to accommodate a new project you want to start. An encounter with someone from your past will be enlightening.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) – You should take some time to relax and spruce up your image.

A new look will put a spring in your step and draw attention from someone special. Romance is featured.

Christopher Hitchens, an English author who lived the last 30 years of his life in the United States, said, “Beautiful sentences pop into my head. Beautiful sentences that aren’t always absolutely accurate. Then, I have to choose between the beautiful sentence and being absolutely accurate. It can be a difficult choice.”

At the bridge table, you try to find the accurate line of play or defense. If it is also beautiful, that’s an added bonus, giving you a story for dinner companions and grandchildren. You are teaching your grandchildren to play bridge, aren’t you?

South is in seven spades. What should he do after West leads a low heart?

Yes, this is the same deal as yesterday’s. Then, though, North bid more circumspectly by using a second dose of Blackwood to learn that two kings were missing; he stopped in six spades. Now, though, he just plunged into the grand slam. Let’s charitably assume that it was the last board of a total-point match in which NorthSouth had to make a grand slam to win.

South has 11 top tricks: six spades, one heart, three diamonds and one club. He has finesses available in each rounded suit that could generate an extra winner or two.

The declarer should realize that even if the heart finesse wins, he will also need the club finesse to work.

But if the club king is well placed, it gives South three tricks in that suit and 13 in all.

South should win with the heart ace, draw trumps and run the club jack. Assuming it wins, declarer plays a club to dummy’s queen, discards his last heart on the club ace and claims.
