Tennyson Drug Store – Manhattan Corner drugstores historically have been a fixture of both urban and rural communities, and before the large chain drugstores of today, they provided for the community’s health with their soda fountains serving as an important community meeting place.

For those of a certain age, the corner drugstore brings to mind a kind of nostalgic memory of days gone by.

This was a time when everyone in small-town America had a strong allegiance to their neighborhood drugstore, which usually was located on a prominent, busy corner and was owned and operated by a local pharmacist who cared about his customers and the community.

The pharmacist and his family often lived upstairs or nearby. And it wasn’t unheard of for him to open the store in the middle of the night to fill an emergency prescription.

His store also was a place where you could get almost anything – from friendly conversation to items like magazines, greeting cards, postcards, cosmetics, hardware materials, and dry goods.

The good pharmacist knew everyone by name – in fact, he knew most of the local gossip.

The heart of the corner drugstore was the soda fountain with a counter where you could sit and have a “cherry coke,” ice cream sundae, milkshake or even a sandwich. It was a special treat to sit at the counter and have the “soda jerk” prepare a soda or ice cream sundae just for you. The fountain area of a drug store was indispensable in the heat of the summer.

In the town of Manhattan, the first drugstore opened in 1890 by local businessman August A. Tennyson. Tennyson Drug Store was a gathering place for many locals, and for this reason, the first telephone and post office in town were installed in his store.

The telephone line connected Chicago to Joliet, Manhattan, Braidwood and

WHAT’S COOKING?

Eateries serve up special offers for restaurant week

By ALLISON SELK

Shaw Media correspondent Warmer spring-like temperatures and sunshine make this week a great time to get out and try a new local restaurant in Joliet and the surrounding area.

The first Joliet Area Restaurant Week kicked off Friday and runs through Sunday, with offers from each of the 18 restaurants on the event circuit.

The week is sponsored by the Heritage Corridor Convention and Visitors Bureau to feature local restaurants during a time when business usually lacks because of cold weath-

“Typically, this time of year we have snow on the ground, which can hamper people coming out – historically, it’s a slow time of year, so we figured this was a great time to help out the restaurants.”

Dan Mulka

Heritage Corridor Convention and Visitors Bureau marketing manager er and the post-holiday season, bureau Marketing Manager Dan Mulka said.

“Typically, this time of year we have snow on the ground, which can hamper people coming out – historically, it’s a slow time of year, so we figured this was a great time to help

out the restaurants,” Mulka said.

Chicago also has a restaurant week, but Mulka said he and bureau President and CEO Bob Navarro wanted to show that there are restaurants outside downtown Chicago.

“We wanted to show the variety in our location and give people a chance

to try something different than what they are used to. Maybe they could get a steak instead of a pasta dish and it gives the restaurant a chance to impress people who could possibly be a repeat customer,” Mulka said.

As of Friday, 18 restaurants were taking part in the 2017 event, including buffets, fine dining, Vietnamese, pub food and finger food. Participating restaurants in Joliet are Al’s Steakhouse, Cherry Street Café, Chicago St. Pub, ConEcepts, Cross Street Grill, Flavors: The Buffet, Jitters, Juliet’s, The Reserve, Tin Roof and Truth.

FRANKFORT TOWNSHIP

2 dead after motorcycle Missing man, 53, found crash Sunday morning dead of apparent suicide The HERALD–NEWS PEOTONE – Two people died early Sunday morning after a motorcycle crash in Peotone.

Rita A. Lindgren, 48, of Monee, and Michael J. Colella, 59, of Manteno, were pronounced dead at 1:10 a.m. at the scene, according to the Will County Coroner’s Office.

Colella, the driver of a motorcycle, lost control of the vehicle, and it left the road, according to the coroner’s

office. Lindgren was the passenger.

The incident occurred just before midnight at the intersection of Harlem Avenue and West Beecher Road, according to a news release from Illinois State Police District 5.

The cause of the crash was not immediately known, the news release stated, and state police continue to investigate.

The cause and manner of the deaths is pending autopsy, toxicology and police reports.

By ANNA SCHIER

aschier@shawmedia.com A Frankfort Township man who was reported missing last week was found dead by police Saturday in rural Will County near Manhattan.

About 3 p.m., Will County sheriff’s patrol officers discovered the body of Daniel S. Delia inside his 2014 black Ford F-150 at an abandoned farm near the intersection of Manhattan-Monee Road and Kankakee Street, Will County Sheriff’s Of-

fice Deputy Chief Tom Budde said.

Delia, 53, appeared to have died of a self-inflicted gunshot wound, Budde said.

Delia left his home the afternoon of Feb. Daniel S. 13. He recently had Delia been diagnosed with terminal cancer, Budde said, and left his phone, wallet and a note addressed to his family at his residence when he disappeared.

include Ashbury’s at Boughton Ridge in Bolingbrook, Big Fish Bar & Grille in Wilmington, Embers Tap House in Lockport, Little Saigon in Shorewood, Morris Chop Shop in Morris, and Wine & Cheese by TCC in Plainfield.

Each location chose a specific special for the week. These include a fixed menu at a discount; a free dessert with entrée option; buy one entrée, get one free; a free appetizer; or a percentage discount.

Mulka said diners can visit jolietrestaurantweek.com for more

information, which can be found by clicking a restaurant’s icon to reveal the service hours, location and offer.

Upon ordering, offers must be shown to waitstaff via mobile phone or printout.

ConEcepts opened four months ago in the Louis Joliet Mall and features sandwich-type meals wrapped in bread cones. Owner and Chef Curon Cumming said his food is meant to “educate the community on fresh food made by real chefs.” He said people should expect clean, fresh ingredients.

“This is a different experience compared to chain restaurants in the mall. Our food is fresh and made-to-order. It’s clean food – people need to put

clean food in their body,” Cumming said.

Another spin on dining will be at Wine & Cheese by TCC, located in downtown Plainfield. The former wine and cheese shop has evolved to serve small plates of cheeses and charcuterie. It also offers salads, lobster bisque and a hummus flight for lighter fare; or braised beef short ribs, duck confit pasta and a roasted chicken quesadilla with mustard cream mascarpone and tarragon sour cream for those looking for a richer taste.

“We hope people come here for a relaxing evening, whether it’s a girls’ night out or date night. We want our customers to come and enjoy wine,

cheese and foods they may not find anywhere else and walk away with an experience where they felt very well taken care of,” co-owner Anna Trost said.

Mulka said he hopes locals find new places to dine and bring their friends and family, and that tourists come to see what the region has to offer.

“We want to draw people to the Joliet area to try something new. ...

They may want to drive to a new place even if it’s an extra 10 to 20 minutes away. Inadvertently, these people may notice other local attractions like the Rialto and come back for a show,” Mulka said.

Memory care facility will help those with dementia Shorewood Mayor Richard Chapman called me with a heads up a few weeks ago about the opening of the Alden Courts Memory Care Center, located next door to Alden Estates Rehabilitation Center.

“It’s such a huge event for Shorewood, we don’t have a facility in the area that deals with memory loss and intensive memory care,” Chapman said.

I’m a baby-boomer myself, and my own mom is in her mid-80s. She’s very fortunate to be able to live in her own home despite a bad fall several years ago that left her with a brain bleed and some short-term memory problems.

Mom attends an adult day care center in Michigan twice a week, which keeps her social life going, and she has a caregiver who comes to her home three afternoons a week to help with chores and errands.

I know other people who have struggled with worse memory problems, some with Alzheimer’s and other forms of dementia. My grandmother had Parkinson’s and dementia is part of that disease.

The memory care center was built for those seeking short-term rehabilitation and post-acute care with

VIEWS Kris Stadalsky memory needs.

Center Director Ashley Bolyn said the facility was designed with the specific needs of the residents in mind.

The designer worked with Dr. Jennifer Stelter, a clinical psychologist and certified dementia practitioner and trainer with Alden’s Network, to create an environment that makes day-to-day living easier for a person with memory issues, keeps them independent and at their highest functioning level as long as possible.

For instance, the carpeting in the three “neighborhoods” of the facility is green, a color that dementia patients can differentiate. As they go through the hallways, following the green helps them navigate and feel safe, said Bolyn.

Nurses and certified nursing assistants also wear green uniforms for the same reason, to be identifiable and recognized as someone who is safe.

Different colors are used for each piece of residents’ bedding – one color for the flat sheet, one for the fitted,

and still another for the comforter.

That way they can differentiate that there are layers between the comforter and sheets and lay in the bed instead of on top.

In the dining room, bold, red plates are used because the color stimulates appetites.

Research shows an increase of 25 percent in food consumption with red plates. The scent of citrus fills the room and serves as an olfactory cue that it is meal time.

In private bedrooms, the bathroom door is actually a curtain. That eliminates the confusion of which is the bathroom and which is the exit door.

Daily schedules include all types of therapies, such as aromatherapy, pet therapy, horticulture, art and music sessions. The facility strives for non-pharmacological approaches to care through sensory stimulation and other alternative therapies.

“Everything has been really thought out,” Bolyn said. “We really

took a holistic approach to the building and programming.”

The need for memory care facilities is growing as the population ages and the medical community makes advances in diagnosing Alzheimer’s and other forms of dementia, Bolyn said.

Bolyn is excited to start accepting residents in March. She has been with Alden Estates since she was in college in several capacities. She is certified as a dementia practitioner, recreation therapist and activity professional.

“I have a passion for helping people,” Bolyn said. “(Alzheimer’s patients) need special people to help them through their journey of dementia, and I want to be part of that journey.”

AN EXTRAORDINARY LIFE

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

Rev. Matthew Mazzuchelli

Photo provided

Matthew also had a great love for children – it made Matthew’s day to encounter a child, even during a routine shopping trip. He also loved children’s books, from which he often gleaned sermon material.

In fact, Debbie Wollgast, of Gardner, a lifelong member of St. Lawrence, said she and others appreciated Matthew’s down-to-earth, easy-to-understand homilies.

“When he spoke, it felt like he was sitting there with you over a cup of coffee,” Debbie said. “He spoke almost

as if he read your mind and knew what you needed to hear.”

When Debbie’s five children were growing up, Matthew attended their birthday parties. Later, he attended their weddings. Debbie said Matthew officiated at many baptisms and weddings for others in the parish over the years.

She praised his woodworking and said St. Lawrence held some of Matthew’s pieces in reserve so they could auction them at future fundraisers.

“He also loved making toys for children,” Debbie said.

A typed paragraph from Nov. 23, 1985, in Matthew’s personal files asked loved ones to refrain from making monetary offerings for Masses said in his memory after his death. Matthew was 85 when he died Jan. 24.

“It would please me very much if people were asked to make a small donation for the starving people of the world,” Matthew wrote, “especially children.”

SOUTH WILMINGTON – The Rev. Matthew Mazzuchelli loved God. He also loved his family, St. Bede Abbey in Peru, where he lived, and the people of St. Lawrence Catholic Church in South Wilmington, where Matthew served on weekends for nearly 50 years.

His favorite recreation was dinner with close friends and sharing of tales from the past.

For Matthew, that was end of the story. But the people who knew and loved Matthew recognized various aspects of his multifaceted gifts.

To Bette O’Donnell, of Peru, who is married to Matthew’s cousin, Michael O’Donnell, Matthew was a storyteller extraordinaire and a great historical resource, especially in terms of the O’Donnell family genealogy.

Matthew also was dedicated to the care of the abbey, inside and out, as well as St. Bede Academy. That’s where Matthew taught mathematics and typing for several years after his ordination in 1958, when he – formerly known as Charles Mazzuchelli – took the name Matthew.

“He was also the abbey locksmith, so he dealt with all the locks on the outer doors,” Bette said. “And he also had a workshop down in the basement of the monastery.”

In that workshop Matthew created decorative woodwork for the abbey.

He also crafted beautiful pieces which members of St. Lawrence auctioned off at its annual fundraiser.

Matthew especially was known for his Adirondack chairs. Bette recalled how the abbey used the chairs years ago.

“The boys would go out to play croquet for recreation,” Bette said, “and the older monks would sit on the chairs and watch them.”

To Matthew’s brother, Michael Mazzuchelli, of LaSalle, Matthew’s only sibling and 13 years his junior, Matthew “was a rock.”

“He always thought of others before himself, even when he was younger,” Michael said. “You could always count on him.”

Michael said that after their father’s death and when Michael was working, Matthew would run errands, perform upkeep on the family home, and help care for their mother who had a stroke.

“I really love him and I really miss him,” Michael said. “He used to call me every night at 6:30. I could set my watch to it.”

Matthew’s good friend, the Rev. John Hornicak, originally from Joliet

and now pastor at Church of the Holy Ghost in Wood Dale, worked with Matthew from 2007 to 2015, when John served at St. Lawrence.

John said Matthew was very unassuming, very humble and very committed to saying Mass, despite the multiple sclerosis that made walking difficult. Matthew, John said, exemplified the priesthood.

“He never took a weekend off,” John said.

Matthew had a tremendous sense of humor and even joked about his infirmity, especially as he grew older.

“I remember one time he fell in the rectory and his face was all bruised, but he insisted on saying Mass,” John said. “He had two black eyes and of course everyone was aghast, but he said the floor snuck up on him, ‘But that’s OK because I got up and stomped all over on it.’ ” Matthew had quirks like anyone else. His obituary said he drank water to the exclusion of other beverages, except for his lone can of beer at cookouts. His favorite foods were soup and spaghetti. If he didn’t like a particular dinner menu at the abbey, he made himself microwave popcorn.

Ram, Journey perfect for work and play Journey is also economical: the four gets EPA-estimated mileage of 19 mpg city and 26 mpg highway, while the six gets 17/25 (16/24 with AWD).

You can also add a bit more style and some more standard equipment with different trim levels, which include the base SE and SXT, Crossroad, Crossroad Plus and GT, which replaces R/T and is new for 2017.

Standard and available features include remote start, cruise control, roof rack, dual- or tri-zone climate control, heated steering wheel, heated front seats, leather seats, in-seat and in-floor storage, sunroof, satellite radio, USB port, navigation system, Bluetooth, remote start and keyless entry.

Safety features include dual-front, front-side, and side-curtain airbags; rear park assist and rear-view camera.

Journey’s brawnier kin, the Ram 1500, is a workhorse even without options. The base model seats three across in comfort, is powered by a 3.6-liter V6 with 305 hp linked to a smooth-shifting eight-speed automatic, and features such workhorse attributes as front and rear heavy-duty shock absorbers and a 5-foot 7-inch cargo box.

Ram is offered in an impressive wide lineup of 11 trims, so you can pick the model with the standards you need. Or you can pick one model and build on that.

For example, the Express comes with the standards above, but offers the options of four-wheel-drive, a hefty 5.7-liter HEMI V-8 with 395 hp, and cab configurations that seat up to six. Quad Cab adds a nifty feature: reverse rear door hinges that make the opening wider and loading and unloading more convenient.

Ram 1500 is a workhorse that can be more finely tuned to your needs with the available RamBox caro box storage system.

Upond 2017 Ram 1500 pickup might seem like the “odd couple” of motor vehicles.

But Chrysler market strategy is behind and built into both, which means Journey and Ram not only look good, they also work for you.

Journey is a stylish mid-size crossover SUV billed as a rolling “Swiss army knife,” offering the choice of four- or six-cylinder engines, five- or seven-passenger seating, and either front- or all-wheel drive.

Ram stands out in any crowd for its “big rig” front end and aerodynamic style – unusual in the boxy pickup market – while offering a choice of three cabs, seating for three to six, and two- or -four-wheel drive.

Both are on display at the Chicago Auto Show, but you may want to opt for a more personal tour, one-on-one contact and maybe a test drive at the local dealership.

Either way, look beyond the style and see the utility.

Add all-wheel drive, fold the seats down, and Journey’s cavernous rear end turns it into a family vacationer, a back-country recreational vehicle, or a hauler for work or shopping. And don’t forget, available seating options can turn it into a sort of seven-passenger mini-bus.

There is plenty of standard power with the 2.4-liter, 173-horsepower four-cylinder, but you can boost it with a 3.6-liter V6 with 283 hp. The four-cylinder comes with front-wheel drive and mates to a four-speed automatic transmission, while the V6 pairs to a six-speed automatic and is available with front-wheel or all-wheel drive.

All-wheel drive takes you and your Journey to those favorite out-of-the-way vacation and recreation spots.

Add Ram’s exclusive RamBox storage system, and the cargo box becomes an on-the-job tool and equipment organizer.

For heavier loads, add the Active-Level Cargo Management System with automatic load leveling.

Standard and available features include and available features include fog lamps, dual-zone climate control, power-adjustable pedals, heated front seats, heated steering wheel, cooled front seats, heated rear seats, sunroof, infotainment, USB, Bluetooth, naviga-

GOP rips Illinois comptroller for buying used $32K SUV

CHICAGO – Illinois Republicans criticized Democratic Comptroller Susana Mendoza on Sunday for spending $32,000 on a used SUV when the state is months behind in paying its bills, an attack her office dismissed as an attempt to distract from GOP Gov. Bruce Rauner’s “failure.”

The comptroller’s office, which controls the state checkbook, bought the 2016 Ford Explorer from a central Illinois dealership and paid for it in full in January, shortly after Mendoza took office, the Chicago Sun-Times first reported.

Illinois GOP Chairman Tim Schneider on Sunday called the purchase “outrageous,” noting Illinois has $11 billion in overdue bills because of the state budget stalemate.

That has led to social service agencies and other vendors going unpaid or waiting months to get money that’s owed them.

“I don’t think buying a 2016 SUV for the comptroller’s office is a priority,” Schneider said. “I think that can wait.”

Mendoza’s office said the money came from an administrative fund that’s not used to pay state bills and isn’t related to the bill backlog.

Director of Communication Abdon Pallasch said Mendoza has reduced the office fleet from nine to eight vehicles and the SUV replaced a car that was inoperable. He said Rauner has a larger state vehicle fleet, and noted state agencies controlled by Rauner have spent $11 million on vehicles over the past two years, not including leases.

“The governor’s party’s phony outrage at one purchase of a used car instead of the state’s $11 billion dollar backlog of bills he refuses to address is a transparent attempt to silence the state office-holder who has been most vocal in holding the governor accountable for his

failure to do his job,” Pallasch said.

Mendoza, who defeated former GOP Comptroller Leslie Munger in November, has repeatedly blasted Rauner as responsible for Illinois’ nearly two-year budget fight.

That has made her a frequent target of the Rauner-funded state GOP, which has linked the former Chicago city clerk to Democratic House Speaker Michael Madigan.

S. Illinois officials monitor use of deadly synthetic opioid

MARION – Officials in southern Illinois are monitoring the use of a synthetic opioid they say was recently introduced in the area and poses a major threat of overdose.

Williamson County officials said U-47700 is eight times stronger than heroin and can be purchased online from Chinese manufacturers at a low cost.

The Southern Illinoisan reported that the drug, also referred to as “U,” “U-4,” “Pink,” or “Pinky,” was introduced throughout Illinois last year. It has claimed the lives of about

100 people in Illinois since then.

Williamson County Coroner Mike “Junior” Burke said he can confirm one case in which the synthetic substance was identified in toxicology reports.

“I’ve been fortunate that I’ve only had one,” Burke said. “And I know it’s coming. It just hasn’t hit here yet, at least in Williamson County.”

Williamson County State’s Attorney Brandon Zanotti said that case is under investigation.

The drug can be ingested, snorted and incorporated into heroin, which increases the chance of an overdose.

“What they do, cutting it into heroin, it lowers the cost for the dealers while also making it more potent, and I guess gives more of a euphoria for the person buying it,” Zanotti said. “The issue we have is heroin on its own is already deadly enough, but with this U-4 it is raising the bar and making it extremely deadly.”

A bill introduced by Republican state Sen. Kyle McCarter of Vandalia would mark the drug as having a risk for potential abuse.

Draft DHS guidelines seek to aggressively detain immigrants

By HOPE YEN and JULIE PACE The Associated Press

WASHINGTON – The Homeland Security Department has drafted sweeping new guidelines aimed at aggressively detaining and deporting immigrants living in the U.S. illegally, according to a pair of memoranda signed by DHS Secretary John Kelly.

The memos dated Friday seek to implement President Donald Trump’s broad directive to crack down on illegal immigration. Kelly outlines plans to hire thousands of additional enforcement agents, expand on the priority list for immigrants marked for immediate removal and enlist local law enforcement to help make arrests, according to a person briefed on the documents, who confirmed the details to The Associated Press.

“The surge of illegal immigration at the southern border has overwhelmed federal agencies and resources and has created a significant national security vulnerability to the United States,” Kelly wrote.

He said apprehensions on the southern U.S. border had seen an additional surge of 10,000 to 15,000 a month from 2015 to 2016.

The memos leave in place one directive from the Obama administration, the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program, which allows young people who were brought into the country illegally as children to stay and obtain work permits. The program has protected about 750,000 immigrants since its inception in 2012. Trump previously has indicated his desire to end the program, but at his press conference last week indicated that he would “show great heart” toward the program.

The memos were reported first by The Washington Post and other news organizations. A U.S. official familiar with the documents did

not dispute the accuracy of the memos signed

by Kelly, which originally were scheduled for release Friday before they were postponed for White House review.

A White House official said the White House has raised objections with the documents and is working with DHS to finalize the policy. The official was not authorized to discuss the process publicly and insisted on anonymity.

Under the draft guidelines, Kelly seeks to “expeditiously hire” 10,000 more enforcement agents and 5,000 Border Patrol officers.

Seeking to fulfill Trump’s campaign promise to build a wall along the Mexican border, Kelly also calls on Customs and Border Protection to “immediately begin planning, design, construction and maintenance of a wall, including the attendant lighting, technology (including sensors), as well as patrol and access roads.” He describes the wall as necessary to deter illegal immigration and calls it a “critical component” of Trump’s overall border security strategy.

He says the department also will prioritize for more immediate removal those who have been convicted of a crime; charged with a crime; committed fraud in connection with a matter before a government agency; abused any program related to public benefits; or have not complied with orders to leave the country.

Joanne Lin, senior legislative counsel for the American Civil Liberties Union, criticized the proposed guidelines as a Trump style of immigration enforcement in which “due process, human decency and common sense are treated as inconvenient obstacles on the path to mass deportation.”

“The Trump administration is intent on inflicting cruelty on millions of immigrant families across the country,” she said in a statement.

Pence visits former Nazi concentration camp

By KEN THOMAS

The Associated Press DACHAU, Germany – U.S. Vice President Mike Pence paid a somber visit to the site of the Dachau concentration camp on Sunday, walking along the grounds where tens of thousands of people were killed during World War II. Pence was joined by his wife, Karen, and the couple’s 23-year-old daughter, Charlotte, as they toured the exhibits at the former concentration camp that was established by the Nazis in 1933 near Munich.

The vice president was accompanied

by Abba Naor, a survivor of the camp, and other dignitaries as he passed through the wrought-iron gate bearing the inscription, “Arbeit macht frei,” or “Work sets you free.” The Pences placed a wreath beneath the International Memorial at the center of the camp, toured the barracks and viewed the ovens inside the crematorium.

The Pences also stopped at religious memorials at the site and later attended a church service on the camp’s grounds.

The concentration camp for political prisoners and Jews near Dachau was the first such facility in Germany. In 1935 other groups, among them Jeho-

vah’s Witnesses, gays and emigrants, were sent there. After a larger facility was built, more political prisoners and more than 11,000 German and Austrian Jews were sent there in 1938. In time, more than 200,000 people from across Europe were held at Dachau and subsidiary camps, and more than 40,000 died.

The camp was liberated by U.S. forces in April 1945.

Former Vice President Joe Biden visited Dachau in 2015.

Making his first overseas trip as vice president, Pence spoke to foreign diplomats and defense officials at the Munich Security Conference on Saturday and

met with German Chancellor Angela Merkel and other world leaders.

Shortly after his arrival in Brussels later Sunday, Pence said the American people appreciate the nation’s alliance with Belgium and he’s looking forward to his meetings with European Union and NATO leaders on Monday.

MEN’S BASKETBALL: JOLIET JUNIOR COLLEGE 94, DuPAGE COLLEGE 67

GOODBYE TO A HOME

JJC celebrates final regular-season game in Wills Gymnasium

By DAVE PARKER

Special to the Herald-News JOLIET – Basketball’s regular-season final curtain has fallen on Joliet Junior College’s A.A. “Fizz” Wills Gymnasium.

“Well, there will be one more men’s home game here … maybe two,” said a smiling JJC men’s coach Joe Kuhn moments after his team defeated DuPage College, 94-67, Saturday afternoon.

That victory followed the JJC women’s 74-46 dismantling of the Chaparrals.

The men will host a Region IV Division III tournament game Wednesday. Coach Shaun Sanderson’s Wolves might host a women’s postseason tourney game at Wills Gym this week.

Saturday’s games were labeled: “One Last Jump Ball.” Nearly 45 former JJC women and men players, along with former coaches, were honored between games.

The 1991-92 JJC men, called The Magnificent Seven and coached by Pat Klingler, also was honored on its 25th anniversary. Featuring only seven players, that team finished fifth at the NJCAA D-II tournament.

Wills Gymnasium, on the second floor of Building G, opened in 1972. It will become the home to the new wrestling program.

Basketball and women’s volleyball will be played in a state-of-the-art, 85,222-square-foot events center, which will feature four locker rooms, offices, plus weight and training rooms. It is scheduled to open officially in August.

“The events center will be a very nice home for us,” JJC Director of Ath-

Joliet coach Joe Kuhn watches as his players warm up Saturday before the last game at A.A. “Fizz” Wills Gymnasium. letics Wayne King said. “It will seat nearly 2,000 for basketball and bring many possibilities to the school and community. Wills Gym has been nice and cozy. It’s a close and tight environment, … somewhat of a homecourt advantage.”

During his 20 years as the Wolves’ coach, Kuhn has racked up 453 wins.

That includes 12 straight 20-plus victo-

“Since Wills Gym was on the second floor and not concrete, players got more bounce and lift when they jumped,” said Giese, whose 2003-2004 team set a season school record for wins (27) and finished third at the national tournament. “Joe Kuhn and I used to joke and say that both of us could dunk here since the floor possessed so much bounce.

“The rims were forgiving. They were shooters’ baskets. The fans were on top of you. Our players got energized playing here. There may have been 100 to 200 fans in attendance, but it often sounded like 1,000 people making noise.

“We beat No. 1-ranked and defending national champion Anoka Ramsey (Minnesota) here. That game definitely helped put our program on the map.”

Wills Gymnasium has gone through numerous renovations – new lighting, bleachers and floor – during its 45-year history. Most of that sprucing up can be attributed to King’s diligence and vision.

“Wills Gym was dark and dingy at one time,” Kuhn said. “But Wayne did a great job of getting things cleaned up with the lighting, installing new bleachers and other things.

The homecourt advantage didn’t change per se, but it became a more viable place to play.”

Wills Gym was a venue where 20-year JJC men’s assistant coach Keith Kinzler never lost during his two-year stint as a player (1991-93).

We practiced hard here every day. When you look at all the players and coaches who have gone through Wills Gym, yeah, it’s a sad day.”

Sanderson said he will miss Wills’ friendly confines.

“Wills was among the best-shooting gyms around,” he said. “I called it, ‘The Box.’ With the give in the floor, you could feel it vibrate with every shot. I’ll miss it.”

When Klingler became the Wolves’ coach in the summer of 1991,

he predicted a national championship within three years. That came to fruition in March of 1994 when JJC beat defending D-II national champion Owensboro (Ohio) in Danville.

“I couldn’t believe the shape the program was in, especially since Joliet was only 40 miles from Chicago,” said Klingler, who won 113 games in four seasons at JJC. “But we got a great working relationship with the area coaches and worked hard to get this done.”

Al Dixon’s basket with 2 seconds remaining gave the Wolves an 87-85 title-game win over Kishwaukee. That punched their ticket to the national tournament at Delta (Michigan) College.

That team, which went 1-2 at nationals, was led by former Joliet Central standout guard Randy Tucker, who averaged 26.5 points. Scott Hasenjaeger, Kinzler, Dixon and Hillell Watkins also started. Chris Edmonds and Bob Pinciak were the subs.

“We began that season with 14 to 15 players, and because of grades and other circumstances, ended up with seven after Christmas,” said Tucker, who was a two-year regular at Northern Illinois. “We lost our top scorer (Darrell Hudson) after the break.

“Only having seven players, we couldn’t scrimmage like normal teams. So, we went 2-on-2, 3-on-3 and had 5-on-none drills to practice the fastbreak. Pat was a great motivator.

He made us believe in ourselves.”

Dave “Dewey” Dwyer spent 10 years as an assistant for Klingler and Kuhn. He has seen what the Wolves’ program has become.

“Pat was the pyramid to the triangle,” Dwyer said. “He started it all from scratch in 1991. The program would not be what it is today without him.

“Coach Kuhn has taken it to a whole new level, and he’s accomplished that with tremendous student-athletes, young men who stay in school and get it done in the classroom.”

24 WRESTLING

9 wrestlers medal, join 5 champs in 3A on podium

By CURT HERRON

cherron@shawmedia.com CHAMPAIGN – While many wrestlers aspire to finish on top of the awards podium on the final night of the individual state series, the goal is out of reach for most.

But a nice consolation prize for putting together a successful season is capturing one of the other five medals that are handed out at each weight class along with the first-place medal.

Area athletes enjoyed a big night Saturday as they won five Class 3A titles at the University of Illinois’ State Farm Center. Nine others joined them to collect a medal for a top-six finish, which also assures all-state status for those competitors.

Here’s a closer look at some of the other area wrestlers who medaled in their weight classes.

Lockport senior Abdullah Assaf (27-3) advanced to the finals for the first time and claimed his third medal with a second-place showing at 132 pounds.

In the title match, he dropped a 16-10 decision to Oak Park-River Forest’s Jason Renteria.

Providence Catholic junior Cole Smith (43-5) followed up on last year’s fifth-place finish by advancing to the finals at 152. He faced the challenge of trying to deny St. Rita’s Austin O’Connor (46-0), who lives in Lockport, of winning an historic fourth-straight title. Smith had lost the previous three meetings and was a big underdog in the title match.

But to his credit, Smith scored a rare takedown against O’Connor in the opening period to close to within 8-6 at one point. However, the University of North Carolina-bound O’Connor turned it up after that and concluded his career with a 20-7 triumph.

“What hurt me the most was giving up those back points at the beginning,” Smith said. “My uncle told me before the match to go out there and try stuff and to have fun, and that’s what I did.

He knew what I was doing before, and I kept doing it and doing it, and it wasn’t working so I had to try new stuff, and some of it worked, and some of it almost worked.

“This is not where I wanted to be since obviously everyone wants to be on top. My goal next year should be to not get taken down at all, because if you don’t get taken down, then you’re always going to win.”

Lincoln-Way West senior Jake Dudeck (36-6) also took fifth last year and hoped to wrestle for a championship.

But he lost a 3-1 decision in the 220 semifinals to the eventual champ, Prospect’s Matt Wroblewski (35-0), and then won

“Honestly, my goal at the beginning of the season was just to make it down here, because I tore my groin during football season,” Dudeck said.

“It set me back a lot, and I’m still actually having some issues now. I had no strength moving my foot inward, it was really hard to do. I didn’t even really wrestle that great of a match last night and left some things on the mat. It feels great to just be back on that podium.”

Lockport continued its historic season with another program-best effort.

The Porters had a Class 3A-best seven placewinners, shattering the school’s previous record of four at one tournament. In fact, the seven who placed equals their previous-best for state qualifiers.

“It was really exciting for us getting seven placers and a champion,” Lockport wrestler Anthony Molton said.

“It was very important to get a medal, since this is the first step to being a state champ. I needed to start off with something good and work my way up.”

The Porters got fourth-place finishes from senior Payton Fernandes (45-8 at 182) and sophomores Anthony Molton (43-10 at 113) and Baylor Fernandes (40-

10 at 145). It was the first medal for each.

“One of my biggest goals was to outdo the rankings and just show that I was a lot better than they would say I am,” Payton Fernandes said. “I’ve been injured pretty much every year until now. I wasn’t expecting to be down here on the floor like this. It surprised me.

It felt good that pretty much the whole team was able to be together here. That was great.”

“This is a big year for Lockport,” Baylor Fernandes said. “It’s not about just me, it’s about the whole team. Our

main goal for both of us was to get here, and, finally, we finally achieved it.”

Lockport also got fifths from sophomores Matt Ramos (44-7 at 106) and Ronald Tucker Jr. (29-4 at 285), which were also their first medals that they won. Senior Brandon Ramos (39-7 at 138) came up one win shy of a medal.

“There’s some little things that we need to touch up on,” Matt Ramos said. “My semifinal loss (to Providence champion Jacob Lindsey) makes me want to work a little harder. I should have pushed myself a little more and been more aggressive. My brother is a great role model for me. It’s a shame that he didn’t place, because he’s worked hit butt off the entire season.”

The other area athlete to earn a medal in Class 3A was Plainfield North junior Matt Hennessey (41-9 at 195), who also picked up his first medal.

“There were a lot of kids who weren’t on this awards stand who could have been since this bracket was loaded,” Hennessey said. “In my first match, I wrestled a kid who was 40-0 and projected to place pretty high, and he ended up not medaling. One of my overall goals this year was to get on the podium and then come back next year and win it.”

(.706). West committed 18 turnovers, Central 17.

“The first half, we kept getting our shots blocked,” said Steelmen coach Lawrence Thompson Jr., who coached in Nick DiForti’s program at West a year ago.

“It is hard to score against them inside,” Grubbs said. “We knew they wanted to block shots and then fast break, and we tried to keep that from happening.”

West stretched a 24-20 halftime lead to 39-31 late in the third quarter.

But just when it looked like the Tigers might pull away, back came the Steelmen.

Bingham, a valuable member of the guard rotation at West last season, led a 12-0 run against his former teammates as the Steelmen grabbed a 43-39 lead.

The Tigers went 41/2 minutes without scoring.

Bingham scored all of his teamhigh 14 points in the second half, nine during the 12-0 run that ended when Cameron Blackmon hit a layup off a Bingham steal.

“In the second half, I was more confident coming out of the locker room,” Bingham said. “I was more focused, more patient.”

Then it was West’s turn to focus.

“We just had to keep our calm when they came back and took the lead,” said Tigers junior guard/forward Eddie Creal, who contributed 12 points, five rebounds and aggressive defense.

“When we were up four, we made a mistake and Elijah [Ward] got the dunk and it’s back to a two-point game,” Thompson said.

“One of the areas we have to grow in is maintaining the momentum when we get it,” Grubbs said. “We need to learn how to continue to exploit some mismatches.”

Central led, 47-46, with 1:54 left when the Steelmen’s JoJo McNair pulled his specialty, drawing a charging foul, this time against West standout guard Teyvion Kirk, who was limited to four points and fouled out with 56 seconds left.

With the lead, the Steelmen ran off some time before Blackmon went to the basket but missed an athletic layup attempt. Creal rebounded. Bell scored five points in the final 1:09, while Grubbs put up Central’s final points on two free throws with 56 seconds left.

“Should Cam have shot the layup with a minute to go?” Thompson said.

“Maybe, maybe not. But If you play passive against them, they sense it, and with their length and size, they take advantage.”

Grubbs was on the bench for a while with foul trouble, causing Thompson to switch to a zone defense temporarily, yet the Tigers prevailed on a day when they had more foul issues.

“We had a lot of foul trouble early,” DiForti said. “In those situations, you expect other guys to step up who do it at practice but haven’t necessarily been asked to do it in game situations that often. We had guys do that today.”

With respect to Lincoln-Way East, Romeoville and anyone else who could spoil the master plan, a West-Central rematch in the sectional semifinals would be special.

The setting was ideal.

A warm Saturday afternoon in February erased one excuse for local basketball fans to bypass the Joliet West at Joliet Central game.

Both teams came in at 21-3 and state-ranked. The Southwest Prairie Conference championship was on the line. The Tigers win and they are the outright champs. The Steelmen win and it’s a tie between the two with one game remaining.

More than that, it’s West vs. Central.

In a quirky season schedule-wise, this was the first meeting between the city rivals even though the postseason is only a week away.

West prevailed, 51-49, in a game that, almost predictably, came down to the final possession.

“The conference championship, the crosstown rivalry, it was a great game to be in,” said Joliet West senior forward/guard Trevian Bell, who scored 13 of his game-high 15 points in the second half and made clutch plays and free throws in the final minute.

“I’m just happy we’re leaving here with smiles on our faces.”

Regardless of where your loyalties lie, what stood out Saturday was how hard both teams play, how they get after it defensively and how athletic both are. Without a doubt, it whets your appetite for the next meeting, which, if it happens, would be March 8 in the semifinals of the Class 4A Lincoln-Way East Regional.

Of course, none of the parties involved can afford to look ahead. Central’s probable opponent in the championship game of the regional it will host is Lincoln-Way East, which handed No. 1-ranked Bolingbrook its first loss last Friday. West’s probable opponent in the Plainfield Central Regional final is Romeoville, which took the Tigers to the final minute before dropping a 69-66 decision a couple of weeks ago.

“We’ll take being in that game with whoever else is in it,” Central’s Jose Grubbs said of the sectional semifinal.

“If it’s them [Tigers], that would be great.”

Grubbs finished with 13 points and 14 rebounds. But like virtually all the Steelmen, his shooting statistics were nothing special. When you play Joliet West, chances are you are not going to have an easy time scoring from inside.

Central shot 28 percent on 14 of 50 while West was at .474 on 18 of 38.

However, the Steelmen knocked down 17 of 22 free throws (Jason Bingham and Grubbs both were 6 of 6), a .772 mark, while the Tigers were 12 of 17

26 BLACKHAWKS 5, SABRES 1

BASKETBALL ROUNDUP

11 Wisconsin Kane leads Hawks to road win No. beats No. 23

By JOHN WAWROW The Associated Press

BUFFALO, N.Y. – Patrick Kane had a goal and an assist in his annual homecoming, leading the Blackhawks to a 5-1 win over the Buffalo Sabres on Sunday night.

Marian Hossa and Jonathan Toews broke it open with second-period goals for the Hawks, who won for the seventh time in eight games. Ryan Hartman and Artem Anisimov also scored, helping the Hawks bounce back from a 3-1 loss to Edmonton on Saturday.

Evander Kane scored and Robin Lehner stopped 32 shots for Buffalo in its final game before its five-day bye.

The Sabres were trying for their first four-game win streak since December 2014.

Hawks goalie Scott Darling, subbing for starter Corey Crawford, made 25 saves in just his seventh appearance in two months.

The Hawks won their 11th consecutive game over the Buffalo. The Hawks haven’t lost to the Sabres since a 2-1 defeat at Buffalo on Dec. 11, 2009.

Kane grew up in south Buffalo and continues to dominate the Sabres. He has scored in eight straight games against the Sabres and upped his career total to eight goals and four assists in 13 meetings.

Lehner had no chance on Kane’s 20th goal of the season early in the third period. The NHL MVP was set up on the right of the Buffalo net, and was untouched for several seconds before easily depositing the puck inside the right post for a 5-1 lead.

Both of Kane’s points came in the

Hawks forward Jonathan Toews puts the puck past Buffalo Sabres goalie Robin Lehner during the second period Sunday in Buffalo, N.Y. opening 61/2 minutes of the third, and after the Hawks’ depth and speed overpowered Buffalo in the second.

Hossa made it 2-1 at 9:40 in after his initial chance was stopped by Lehner.

Marcus Kruger chased down the puck and fed Hossa at the boards, where he took a few steps toward the net and beat Lehner on the short side.

Toews scored six minutes later, when the Hawks maintained control in the Buffalo zone after winning a faceoff to the left of the net. Lehner stopped Richard Panik’s shot from the left circle but was unable to control the puck, which dribbled loose into the crease. Toews beat Buffalo’s Jack Eichel across the middle and tapped

the puck into the open right side.

The goal was payback for Toews, who was stripped by Eichel in the final seconds of the opening period.

The turnover led to Eichel setting up Evander Kane with 6 seconds left. It was Kane’s team-leading 21st of the season, all of which have come in his past 36 games.

The Hawks struck first on Hartman’s goal 13:34 into the game. Using his speed to drive from the top of the blue line and to the right circle, Hartman snapped a laser that beat Lehner high on the short side.

Notes: Hawks LW Vinnie Hinostroza played after being recalled from the minors earlier in the day.

PGA TOUR

Dustin Johnson goes to No. 1 with big win at Riviera DOUG FERGUSON

The Associated Press LOS ANGELES – Dustin Johnson went to No. 1 in the world with a worldclass performance at Riviera.

Johnson turned a marathon finish into a Sunday stroll in the Genesis Open. He finished the third round in the morning with a 7-under 64 to build a five-shot lead, stretched it to nine shots at one point in the final round and coasted home to a 71 and a five-shot victory.

“It sounds good,” Johnson said when asked about being the top player in the world. “I played really great all day. I couldn’t have driven it any better. That was a big key.”

Johnson became the 20th player to reach No. 1 since the world ranking be-

gan in 1986, ending Jason Day’s 47-week stay at the top.

Johnson won for the fourth time against some of golf’s strongest fields dating to his U.S. Open victory last summer. All he cared about Sunday was winning at Riviera, one of his favorite courses where he has had chances in four of the last five years.

There was no doubt this time.

Johnson had a one-shot lead when he arrived Sunday at Riviera, which lost 10 hours the previous three days to fog and torrential rain. Johnson had such command of his game that his longest par putt in the third round was from 4 feet, and he closed with three straight birdies to make the final round in the afternoon more of a coronation.

Johnson went 49 straight holes with-

out a bogey, a streak that ended on No. 9 in the final round, and he was sloppy down the stretch when it no longer mattered.

It capped off a strong stretch that elevated Johnson to the top. Not only was it his fourth victory since June, he has finished among the top three in eight of his last 16 tournaments.

Johnson finished at 17-under 267.

About the only disappointment was losing a chance to break the oldest 72-hole scoring record on the PGA Tour schedule. Lanny Wadkins won at Riviera in 1985 at 20-under 264.

Johnson reached 20 under with his 21st birdie of the week on the par-3 sixth hole. Having made only one bogey all week, he finished with three over the last 10 holes.

MADISON, Wis. – Nigel Hayes was in vintage form, going strong to the hoop. Bronson Koenig returned from a leg injury to provide a jump-shooting boost off the bench.

No. 11 Wisconsin played like it was fighting to get into the NCAA tournament, even if the Badgers are virtually guaranteed to be playing into midMarch. Hayes scored 14 of his 21 points in the second half, and Ethan Happ had 20 points to beat No. 23 Maryland in a choppy, foul-filled game on Sunday.

The Badgers (22-5, 11-3) overcame 27 points from Terrapins guard Melo Trimble to snap a two-game losing streak and stay in a tie atop the Big Ten standings with Purdue.

After consecutive losses to Northwestern and Michigan – two squads looking to pad their résumés just to get into the NCAAs – Wisconsin took the court with the mindset of a bubble team trying to prove a point.

“I would definitely say ‘Yes,’ that’s kind of why we dropped the last two,” Hayes said when asked if his team was playing with a sense of urgency.

Northwestern and Michigan “were fighting for their tournament lives, trying to build a resume,” Hayes said. “We finally have that sense of urgency on our own end.”

Minnesota 83, Michigan 78 (OT): At Minneapolis, Jordan Murphy had 16 points and 15 rebounds and Eric Curry scored all 12 of his points in the second half to lift Minnesota to its fifth straight victory over Michigan on Sunday night.

Reggie Lynch added 11 points and eight rebounds while battling foul trouble for most of the night for the Golden Gophers (20-7, 8-6 Big Ten), who overcame a furious rally from Michigan to inch closer to an NCAA tournament bid. The Gophers were just 28 of 41 from the line, but made 15 of their last 16 to hold off Michigan.

Derrick Walton Jr. scored 10 of his 16 points in the final five minutes of regulation and D.J. Wilson added 16 points, including the tying 3-pointer with 1.8 seconds to play in regulation, for the Wolverines (17-10, 7-7). But Michigan missed nine free throws and Walton missed a decent look from 3 in the closing seconds of overtime to allow the Gophers to escape.

Western Conference forward Anthony Davis of the New Orleans Pelicans dunks during the first half of the All-Star game Sunday in New Orleans.

Record All-Star: Davis scores 52, West tops East

By TIM REYNOLDS

The Associated Press NEW ORLEANS – Anthony Davis had an All-Star Game for the record books.

And on a night when Russell Westbrook and Kevin Durant provided a glimpse of the past, Giannis Antetokounmpo showed he’s clearly part of the future and a midcourt lob attempt from James Harden even went in, Davis absolutely stole the show.

He scored 52 points, 10 more than Wilt Chamberlain’s All-Star record that had stood for 55 years, and the Western Conference beat the Eastern Conference, 192-182, on Sunday night – the highest-scoring game in league history.

Davis made 26 shots and took 39, both of those also All-Star records. He even outdid Westbrook, who had 41 points in just 20 minutes – which ordinarily would have been enough to merit him what would have been a third straight MVP award.

Not this time. It was Davis hoisting the trophy, to the delight of his New Orleans fans.

“It was a lot of fun,” Davis said. “My teammates did a great job of looking for me.”

Durant had a triple-double with 21 points, 10 rebounds and 10 assists. Stephen Curry added 21 points for the West – where a subplot emerged as DeMarcus Cousins played only two minutes, prompting some speculation that a trade sending him out of Sacramento might be looming.

Antetokounmpo had 30 points for the East, with 12 dunks in his night.

LeBron James scored 23 to become the first All-Star to eclipse 300 in a career, Kyrie Irving had 22 points and 14 assists, and Isaiah Thomas scored 20 for the East.

Davis became the story that overshadowed The Story coming into this game, that being the Durant-Westbrook whatever.

And if there is any animus remaining between Durant and Westbrook, it was hidden. They passed each other the ball and slapped hands in the pregame layup line, and not long after Westbrook checked into the game the former Oklahoma City teammates provided one of the game’s top highlights – a give-andgo, capped by Durant lobbing the ball to set Westbrook up for a dunk.

“OH MY GOD! WHAT JUST HAPPENED?” Curry shouted on the West bench, which moments later broke into celebration. Players jumped and threw hands skyward, Curry tossing a cupful of water onto a smiling Durant amid it all. Draymond Green called the play “cute,” and Westbrook and Durant seemed happy with it as well.

Westbrook scored 12 points – all on 3s – in a 63-second span late in the third quarter, coming off the bench and firing over and over and over again. And then he opened the fourth quarter with another 3, giving him 34 points in just under 14 minutes played to that point.

It looked like he was a cinch for MVP honors, until Davis scored 20 points in the fourth.

Elliott nips Earnhardt to win 2nd straight Daytona 500 pole

By DAN GELSTON

The Associated Press DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. – It’s impossible to tell the history of NASCAR without mentioning Elliott and Earnhardt.

As the series shifts into a new era, those distinguished names are out front again and will give the start of the Daytona 500 a throwback feel.

Chase Elliott and Dale Earnhardt Jr. – teammates and sons of Hall of Fame drivers – will start 1-2 and should give a sagging series a sorely needed boost this week headed into its marquee event.

Elliott nipped Earnhardt on the final qualifying lap Sunday to win his second straight pole for the Daytona 500. Elliott turned a lap at 192.872 mph to just edge Earnhardt’s speed of 192.864 and become the first repeat pole winner in 27 years.

“I don’t really care who it is. I’m not going to feel bad about beating somebody,” Elliott said. “Dale’s a good guy.

I’m happy to share the front row with him. Happier to beat him.”

Earnhardt, long NASCAR’s most popular driver, had the speed beat in his triumphant return after missing

the second half of last season with a concussion. He missed the final 18 races with nausea, vision and balance issues after at least the fifth concussion of his career following a June wreck.

He was as sharp as ever in the No. 88 Chevrolet headed into his first race since last July.

“Ain’t much to it. The car does all the work,” he said.

Elliott and Earnhardt gave Hendrick Motorsports and Chevrolet a 1-2 front row for the fifth time in the Daytona 500.

Elliott, the 21-year-old son of Hall of Fame driver and two-time Daytona 500 champion Bill Elliott, became the youngest Daytona 500 pole winner a year ago and proved in the No. 24 Chevy starting first last season was no fluke.

Elliott also made it three straight years for the No. 24 on the pole. Jeff Gordon won the pole in 2015 in his final season before he retired and turned the car over to Elliott.

The rest of the field will be set Thursday in the two qualifying races.

Elliott will lead the field to green and try and to avoid the problems that spoiled his Daytona 500 debut.

Elliott’s run at a Daytona 500 victo-

ry last season ended in the grass just 19 laps into the race. The front end of his car lifted off the ground, and the rough ride caused enough damage that his car had to be towed to the garage.

Until the wreck, Elliott was the star of Speedweeks. He followed the pole with a win in the second-tier Xfinity Series race.

He’s back out front again and expecting a better finish.

“I hope we can just try to get to the end of the 500, next,” Elliott said.

“We’ve obviously got to get through the Duels, first. But, just making it to the end and having yourself in position, obviously we’d love to have a shot to win this thing. It would be great and I think we have a car that can do it.”

Elliott’s speed earned team owner Rick Hendrick his 11th overall pole in the Daytona 500.

“My boss man is happy,” Earnhardt said. “I just talked to him on the phone, and he’s got to be thrilled with having his cars up front.”

Patient care a priority regardless of gender

their findings.

Yet there were two differences between the female and male doctors that may be of substance: the physicians themselves. Female physicians in the study were on average 5 years younger than their male counterparts (42.8 years versus 47.8 years). Not to be ageist, but younger doctors may have a greater ability to use hospital computer systems, may be more likely to utilize social services for their patients, and may be more willing to alter their practices based on the latest studies.

Another important aspect is female physicians on average took care of fewer hospitalized patients than their male counterparts, with female internists taking care of an estimated 132 hospitalized patients a year versus male internists’ 181. The busier schedule of the male internists may increase the chances that some aspects of care will be negatively affected. The authors tried to correct for both the age and patient load issues, but that’s not easy to do.

As provocative as this new study is, it’s far from conclusive. A 2013 study in the Journal of the American Board of Family Medicine found no differences in care between male and female physicians in the rates of death, hospitalizations or health care expenditures.

In summation, this research does nonetheless offer a reminder to all physicians, regardless of gender or age, that many factors affect patient death rates and readmissions – and we can’t afford to let any of them fall through the cracks.

Dear Doctor: Do hospitalized patients really get better care from female doctors compared to men, as a new study – and now many headlines – claim?

Dear Reader: My initial reaction when I saw this study was one of denial. As a man, I viewed the study – and the host of media articles reporting on it – with something like hostility; it seemed no less than an attack on my gender. After I calmed down a bit, I read through the research.

The study, published recently in JAMA Internal Medicine, looked at a random sample of data – totaling more than 1.5 million hospitalizations – from four years of hospitalizations among Medicare patients being cared for by general internists. The authors separated the patients into two groups based on the gender of their physicians, then evaluated quality of care by the death rates of these patients within a 30-day period after hospitalization and also by the rates of readmission to the hospital after being discharged.

The authors found the death rates of patients cared for by female internists were slightly lower than the death rates of patients cared for by male internists: 11.07 percent versus 11.49 percent. This was not a staggering difference – amounting to one fewer death in 233 patients – but still, it was a difference.

Further, readmission rates were lower for patients of female doctors compared to patients of male doctors: 15.02 percent versus 15.57. This means one fewer readmission in 182 patients.

Even as a man playing devil’s advocate, I can’t blame confounding factors – differences in patient characteristics – for the findings. Female doctors took care of more female patients, slightly fewer patients with heart disease, lung disease and diabetes, but slightly more patients with kidney disease.

But these were only minimal differences, and the authors took those differences into account, making adjustments for them in

Dear Abby: My DEAR ABBY daughter-in-law is extremely Jeanne jealous of the Phillips close relationship I have with my daughter. If I spend time with my daughter and grandson, she gets mad at me and keeps my grandchildren from me. I need advice on how to handle her. I get her children almost every weekend. I work a full-time job, but she feels like I should have them more. – Grandman In Georgia Dear Grandma: I don’t think your daughter-inlaw is necessarily jealous of the close relationship you have with your daughter. But it may be she wants more free baby-sitting service. You say you have her children almost every weekend. That hardly seems to me like she’s keeping them from you. Remind her working a full-time job and taking care of her children the amount of time you already do is as much as you can handle, and you need time with your daughter and her son. There are only so many hours in a day, and you need time to rest if you’re going to go the distance. If that’s not enough for her, so be it. If she chooses to punish you for it, it is her children who will also suffer – not just you.

Dear Abby: I live in a small town in Pennsylvania, where I teach fifth grade and coach at the local school. I love my job and feel lucky to be teaching next door to my mentor.

The problem is there’s another teacher and a student with whom I share the same name. I can’t help but feel discouraged when colleagues and students refer to me as “Junior ( )” or “Fake ( )” and make jokes about it on a daily basis. I try to laugh it off, but it does get to me. I feel I should be respected because I am a professional.

Is there a better way to handle this so it doesn’t negatively affect my day? – Frustrated Teacher Dear Frustrated: The people who do this may think they’re hilariously funny, but when students do it, it is disrespectful. Tell them you would prefer to be addressed as “Mr. (first initial of your last name).”

As for your colleagues, remind them you are an adult now, nothing about you is fake – and give yourself a nickname more acceptable than “Junior.” Do it with humor. If they slip up, keep reminding them, and eventually it will catch on.

Dear Abby: I am in my 50s and disabled. I am also the full-time caregiver for my parents. I live with them because they also are disabled and need my help. An old friend has moved back to the area. I care very much for her, but I’m afraid I have nothing to offer her because I don’t have my own place or make a lot being on Social Security. I’m hesitant to get close to her because all I have is the way I feel about her. Advice? –

HOROSCOPE

By EUGENIA LAST

Newspaper Enterprise Association TODAY – Take your time and do your own thing.

Don’t feel pressured by what others choose to do.

Be your own person and make decisions based on your knowledge of situations. Your consistency and steady progress will not fail you. Striving for perfection and paying attention to detail and quality will serve you quite well.

PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) – Keep a close watch on your co-workers and employer. Gather information that will help you outmaneuver anyone who tries to get in your way.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) – Live your dream. Don’t deny yourself the right to get ahead. Choose to

be in control, and make your decisions based on what’s best for you. Personal improvements are favored.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) – Leave nothing to chance. Use your talent, skill and experience to help you gain respect and the confidence of those who could help you advance your plans.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) – You may have a good idea, but your timing is questionable. Consider ways to build on what you have in mind before you tell your plans to the people from whom you wish to receive assistance.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) – Give yourself a chance to discover something new. Taking part in cultural events or classes that make you more self-aware and mindful is favored. Master your people skills.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) – Take a big step forward.

Bring about the changes that will make you happy.

Expand your horizons, friendships and mind.

Network with others and learn from the people you encounter.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) – Trouble at home will arise if you don’t discuss your plans with the people who will be affected by your decisions.

Emotions will flare up if you aren’t fair.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) – Face challenges head-on.

Be willing to bring about change that will make your life better. Making a move, following an educational pursuit and nurturing important relationships will be in your best interest.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) – Discussions will lead to controversy, but in the end, a unique solution

will be found. Don’t shy away from sharing your feelings if you want to bring about positive change.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) – Turn your focus inward. Learn from your mistakes and refuse to get involved with infamous individuals trying to take advantage of your good nature and generosity.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) – Rely on your insight and experience to avoid conflict. Head in a direction that feels comfortable and safe instead of giving in to pressure and someone’s unpredictable force.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) – You can live the dream if you use your intelligence and ingenuity to maximize what you have to offer. Make romance a priority if you want your personal life to improve.

David Lloyd George, who was the British prime minister from 1916 to 1922, said, “Don’t be afraid to take a big step if one is indicated. You can’t cross a chasm in two small jumps.”

When an opponent opens one of a suit, and you have a relatively weak hand -- some 5-10 high-card points -and a respectable long suit, be happy to enter the auction with a jump.

If you make a single jump, you are showing a six-card suit. Your hand will be akin to a weak-two opening -- as in today’s deal.

Over South’s two-heart weak jump overcall, North took a shot at game.

After West leads the club 10, how should South plan the play?

Note that 5-10 points is a very wide range. A more scientific pair would use two no-trump as an inquiry, akin to responding two no-trump to an opening weak two-bid. Here, South would indicate a maximum (perhaps by rebidding three clubs to show the feature -- high card -- in that suit), and game would also be reached. But if South had a weaker hand, game would be unmakable.

Declarer has four losers: one spade, one heart and two clubs. He must eliminate one club loser by immediately cashing dummy’s three diamond winners and discarding a club. Then he gets trumps drawn as quickly as possible.

(In August, Phillip is running the bridge on a Kalos golf-and-bridge cruise down the Danube from Nuremburg to Budapest with an optional three-day extension to Prague.
