JOLIET – City Manager Jim Hock plans to leave May 3. Hock informed the mayor and City Council members Thursday afternoon that he intends to retire.

“I’m surprised, but I’m not shocked,” Mayor Bob O’Dekirk said. “When his contract was up, he didn’t ask for a full extension.”

O’Dekirk also noted that Hock, who is in his 60s, has reached the age when he can Jim retire.

Hock “I did not think he was going to be here for my full term as mayor,” O’Dekirk said.

Hock did not return a call seeking comment. But O’Dekirk and council members said there were no issues with Hock’s work.

“There are so many good things happening that I’m kind of disappointed that he’s not going to see them through,” O’Dekirk said. “We’re definitely going to miss him.”

“When I talked with him, he said it was a personal decision,” Quillman said. “He wanted to wait until after the election so no one would make anything political about it.”

Quillman and others said they were happy with Hock’s work as a city manager.

“He’s a good administrator and seemed to be fair,” council member John Gerl said.

“His time here was productive. In fact, during his time here, we’ve seen a lot of growth.”

Hock’s three years have been busy ones, including the arrival of Amazon.com fulfillment centers, redevelopment downtown and an intergovernmental agreement created to build a toll bridge over the Des Plaines River.

“As the mayor has said, the city is on a real good roll,” council member Pat Mudron said.

Mudron said he did not know of any internal issues that would have prodded Hock’s departure.

“We would have renewed his contract,” council member Terry Morris said.

Will County freight growth 10 times more than ‘peer regions’

By MIKE MALLORY

mmallory@shawmedia.com JOLIET – A firm selected to design the Will County Community Friendly Freight Mobility Plan is about 60 percent through development, with a draft of the study expected in May. Various grants for the study, being conducted by CDM Smith and overseen by former Illinois Department of Transportation secretary Ann Schneider, now amount to more than $1 million.

The county intends to use the study to help earn federal and state grants for expensive road and infrastructure projects, such as improvements to Interstate 80 and Interstate 55. Components of the study include “telling the story of freight in Will County” and reducing truck freight movement on local streets.

Some new facts already have emerged from the study that help show the importance of Will County as a transportation hub. Schneider presented an update on the study Thursday to the Will County Board Executive Committee.

Schneider said that more than one-third of the distribution space within the sev-

Hock was hired in November 2013 on a three-year contract. Council member Larry Hug said Hock’s contract contained an automatic extension until May, and the council likely would have renewed the contract.

“Nobody was in a hurry,” Hug said.

“There was no indication that Jim was leaving. We figured we had time to do it by May.” Hock told Hug that he and his wife had made the decision previously but did not want to announce it until after the election Tuesday so that his departure would not become a political issue.

“They didn’t tell anyone because they didn’t want it to be part of the election,” Hug said. “You know it would be turned into something different if it was announced before the election.”

Hug said Hock had told him that he will work with the city to help with the transition to a new city manager. He may stay on in some capacity after May 3, Hug said.

Council member Jan Quillman, too, said Hock did not want to announce his decision before the election.

en-county region of northeastern Illinois is in Will County.

The county has seen a 138 percent growth in freight in the past 10 years, compared with “peer regions,” such as Chicago, where growth was 10 percent; Kansas City, where it was 9 percent; Los Angeles, which had 4 percent growth; and Memphis, with 3 percent.

“The growth here is exponentially larger than some of our competitor regions, and I think that’s a good story to tell,” Schneider said.

The committee also discussed the future of trucking, which, much like warehouse work, may become automated in some form based on recent technology advancements.

Part of the study focuses on workforce mobility and jobs in the freight industry.

Executive Committee Vice Chairman Chuck Maher, R-Naperville, said he’d like to see more of an emphasis placed on the technology jobs that will come within the trucking industry.

County Board Speaker Jim Moustis, R-Frankfort, said the study could be used as a model for the state of Illinois when it’s complete, noting that’s why the state gave

the county a grant.

Will County Center for Economic Development President John Greuling took that assessment a step further.

“This is going to be a model for the country. Will County and the inland port are viewed as state-of-the-art logistics facilities,” he said. “Having spent a lot of time in the last five years with these e-commerce companies, a couple things are happening.”

No. 1, Greuling said, forklifts might not be driven by people in the not-too-distant future.

“And, as one of our larger e-commerce companies has shared with me, it won’t take long for the robots to leave the building,” Greuling said. “So, we’re going to start seeing movement of freight within these campuses totally by autonomous vehicles, and when we start talking about the next level of employment in this business, it’s gonna be coders, assemblers, manufacturers and people that are probably going to have at least a bachelor’s education.”

The committee talked of the county being the “perfect test bed” for tech jobs and autonomous vehicles in the freight industry.

COVER STORY

Valerie Devine is first permanent executive director in a year

By BOB OKON

bokon@shawmedia.com JOLIET – Appearing now at the Rialto Square Theatre is Valerie Devine, the latest of three executive directors in the past year, but the only one of those hired to stay.

Devine is planning to have a long run at the theater.

“I’m very excited about coming to this community and being part of the community,” Devine said Thursday during an interview at the Rialto.

She started Monday and has been making some rounds, meeting with the City Center Partnership that promotes downtown Joliet, and talking with others who also have an interest in the Rialto.

Despite the troubles at the Rialto during the past year, Devine said that many have an upbeat attitude about the theater.

“I think everyone’s excited,” she said. “They’ve been incredibly positive, which is encouraging. It’s easy to see only the negative. I have not gotten that from anyone. They’re very hopeful.”

Devine’s own positive attitude is the first thing mentioned by those who hired her.

It is a trait one would look for in someone hired to run a theater that a year ago went into crisis mode, which lasted through all of 2016 as the Rialto grappled with financial and leadership controversies.

A candidate for the executive director’s position as far back as December, Devine was monitoring the Rialto controversy late last year when theater leaders talked about the possibility of closing the doors.

Her optimistic outlook might be evident in what Devine said was her reaction to the news in late December that the entire governing board at the theater had resigned.

“If you’re going to have a fresh start, what better way to do it than with all new people?” Devine said.

Devine now is one of those new people. In two weeks, she closes on the sale of her house in DeKalb. She’s moving in with a daughter in Naperville while hunting for a townhouse in the Joliet area.

Devine comes to the Rialto from the Paramount Theatre in Aurora, where she was vice president of production.

There, she booked shows for not only the Paramount, a historic theater of the

She was at the Paramount for 13 years and previously worked in sales for the St. Charles Convention and Visitors Bureau.

Devine is short on specifics about her plans for the Rialto other than to bring in shows and get the theater back to the level of activity it once had.

“We just need to get back on people’s radar screen again,” she said.

Devine works for VenuWorks, the company hired to manage the Rialto, which has been at the theater on a temporary basis since September before coming to terms on a five-year contract that started this month.

But she also was interviewed by Bob Filotto, chairman of the Will County Metropolitan and Exposition Authority, the governmental body that oversees the Rialto.

“My initial impression with her, and one that I continue to have, is that she

executive director of the Rialto Square Theatre is very positive and very energetic,” Filotto said. “She’s dedicated to bringing the Rialto back and having a lot more programming.”

Filotto said he’s heard good reviews about Devine from people with Hollywood Casino, which has casinos in Aurora and Joliet, and the stagehands

union that operates both at the Rialto and the Paramount.

One expectation the authority board has for Devine, Filotto said, is that she will bring in more diverse programming to appeal to African-American and Latino populations in Joliet. The lack of shows that appeal to them has been a criticism of the Rialto, and Devine said she plans to meet with local African-Americans and Latinos to discuss the issue.

Leaving the Rialto is Timothy Berry, a VenuWorks employee who arrived in September as an interim executive director. Berry knew he would leave once a permanent director was hired.

Berry, whose last day in Joliet is Friday, called his time at the Rialto “a page turner.”

“All indicators point up,” he said. “[The Rialto] is on a track for success.

You can sell tickets in this market. It’s a great market, and the Rialto is the most beautiful theater anywhere. It’s got that going for it.”

CHANNAHON

County might join village’s tax abatement plan

By MIKE MALLORY

mmallory@shawmedia.com CHANNAHON – The village of Channahon is looking to strike a deal with 11 taxing bodies to help an industrial development come to fruition along Interstate 55.

Director of Development Mike Petrick and Ryan Stoller, a principal with Venture One Real Estate, met with the Will County Ad-Hoc Economic Development Committee on Thursday to introduce the project.

The plan is to build a 4 millionsquare-foot industrial park on a 290-acre parcel in several years between Route 6 and Bluff Road.

Although the land is an ideal spot that would keep truck traffic away from homes, it’s not ready to handle industrial use yet.

“The interstate is sort of a barrier between the residential and the industrial and this fits very nicely,” Will County Center for Economic Development President John Greuling said.

According to Illinois property tax code, if approved by all taxing bodies, taxes on the project would be abated for a period not to exceed 10 years and in an aggregate amount of abated taxes for all taxing districts not to exceed $4 million

Holiday Inn Express and Suites coming to Romeoville

By FELIX SARVER

fsarver@shawmedia.com ROMEOVILLE – A Holiday Inn Express and Suites might come to Romeoville.

Plans for the new hotel were presented at Wednesday’s Village Board workshop meeting.

The proposed four-story hotel would be located along Normantown Road near the newly remodeled Bowlero.

The hotel would be on Lot 2 of Normantown Square.

The planned building would be accented with an outer stone veneer and contain 96 guest rooms, according to a village news release.

Mayor John Noak said the hotel would meet the demand for more and nicer hotel spaces.

The hotel would contain amenities such as a swimming pool, meet-

ing rooms, a fitness center, a business center, breakfast, lounge space and an outdoor patio.

“It’s another great opportunity to continue that development and become a destination location in the region,” Noak said.

He said the project plans likely will go before the village’s planning and zoning commission for review.

The owner and developer of the hotel project is Aurora-based Hospitality Guru Group, according to the village of Romeoville website. The architect is Ethos Workshop and the engineers include KJWW Engineering Consultants and RTM Engineering Consultants.

The workshop meeting also had other developments proposed, including a Murphy Express gas station, which will be the first of seven outlets to be developed in front of Blain’s Farm & Fleet.

pay for the improvements, and then look at the tax abatements as a form of reimbursement, Stoller said.

“We’re borrowing from their future taxes to fund [the work] today,” Petrick said. “But this development can’t go forward without the extension of the water main and significant improvement to the roadways. It’s just physically not able to be contained on this land.”

A new road, Exchange Boulevard, will be a main north-south thoroughfare for the region, and a facility to the north in Joliet will use the road to access the Bluff Road interchange to the south that Channahon also is improving.

Venture One will improve a two-lane frontage road to a three-lane road that will support anticipated traffic. The developer will also improve Amoco Road.

Petrick said the village is awaiting a permit from the Illinois Department of Transportation to start improvements at the Bluff Road Interchange.

The plan is to break ground as early as May, if it is confirmed by all taxing bodies. The developer will break ground on a second building when a lease is secured for the first one. It will be a phased development of five to seven years.

The board’s Executive Committee will review the intergovernmental agreement next.

Plainfield garage fire causes $70K in damage An accidental fire caused significant damage early Thursday to a large residential garage. Plainfield Fire Protection District Deputy Chief Jon Stratton said the homeowner called firefighters at 3:45 a.m. after the blaze started in the upstairs area of a detached two and a half story garage in the 2400 block of Satellite Drive in Plainfield Township. “It appears to have started accidentally with an unattended candle,” Stratton said. There were no injuries, but one firefighter was taken to Presence Saint Joseph Medical Center in Joliet to be examined for a medical problem and was later released. It took firefighters 15 minutes to get the fire under control.

Stratton estimated the fire caused $70,000 worth of damage.

Joliet D-86 parents seek better response to bullying

By SARWAT S. AHMAD

Shaw Media correspondent JOLIET – A mother who pulled her children out of Gompers Junior High School last month because of bullying pleaded with Joliet Public Schools District 86 Board inspectors for more support from school administration and staff.

Brenda Garcia, who spoke at the board’s meeting Wednesday night, got emotional as she explained finding notes about suicide from one of her sons.

“When I read [these notes], it hurts me,” Garcia said.

Garcia said her sons have been victims of bullying at the school for years, and have been “chased, kicked, attacked and once had a gun pulled on them.”

“I’m not here to blame anybody or point fingers – I need extra support from [the schools],” she said.

Garcia said that in all the time her children reported incidents of bullying, they were never informed about bullying report forms or the anonymous bullying hotline.

The form and the information for the hotline as well as the district’s bullying policy are available on the district’s website.

Garcia came to the meeting with about 10 other concerned parents and community members, who she rallied through social media, she said after the meeting.

One of those parents, Sanina Campbell, who also was a school inspector candidate in Tuesday’s election but lost to incumbent Gwen Ulmer, said her daughter, a student at Washington Junior High School, has been bullied for two and a half years. Campbell said she also did not know about the bullying report form, so there is no documentation of the incidents.

She said her daughter has recently been suspended for being the aggressor in a bullying situation, which may have been a response to past bullying.

Campbell told the inspectors that schools need to work on bullying prevention.

EMBRACING MINDFULNESS

Mindfulness is a powerful practice for becoming keenly aware of our thoughts and emotions, interactions with others, as well as our experiences. Mindfulness can be used to connect with loved ones with memory care needs in the present moment, whatever time frame that may be for the person with dementia. Numerous clinical studies indicate mindfulness meditation s effectiveness in staving off stress and stress-related health problems. Research shows mindfulness improves memory, creativity and reaction times. It also has been proven to help in the treatment of heart disease and high blood pressure; boosts the immune system; eases anxiety, PTSD, depression, chronic pain and gastro-intestinal problems; and can increase sleep, among others. In this lecture, you will learn how to build mindfulness cues into your daily life and we ll practice a mindfulness meditation technique. We will also experience sensory awareness techniques that can assist in heightening consciousness.

“We need to teach these children to accept each other,” she said.

Campbell said after the meeting that the school has responded after the bullying incidents, but that the efforts were only temporarily successful.

One Gompers parent said her son, who has not been bullied, told her he doesn’t want to get a haircut “because kids will slap you on the back [of your head] because you have fresh skin.”

Two former District 86 students, Oscar Cuevas and Jorge Trujillo, who are now heads of the anti-bullying organization Learners for Justice, told inspectors that bullied students need better support.

Cuevas, who was bullied as a student at Gompers, said after the meeting that he has presented a solution to the district in which students do role playing to illustrate that the district’s current policy of conflict resolution is not effective.

Trujillo, formerly a student government president at Washington, said that he did not see counseling services readily available to students, especially after an incident in 2013 in which a friend committed suicide.

Superintendent Theresa Rouse said in a phone interview after the meeting that she met Monday with Garcia and

Cuevas. She said the district is investigating Garcia’s case and will use the information from the investigation to make changes to improve its handling of bullying situations.

“We have areas we need to work on and bullying is one of them,” she said.

Rouse said the district has many protocols in place to handle bullying, among them the report form and the anonymous hotline. Schools also hold assemblies on bullying and have character education classes.

Rouse said she is looking to bolster peer mediation programs, which are being implemented by more and more school districts, and seek to teach students empathy and resolve conflicts.

Since she started as superintendent 10 months ago, Rouse has met with many parents, advocates and staff to “take in information and look at appropriate next steps to help our [overall] system improve,” she said.

She also said that while the district has some problems with bullying, “none of the data I’ve collected [since becoming superintendent] reflects a pervasive issue of bullying.”

The situations the district does encounter and those that are reported will help the district make the changes it needs to ensure its protocols are implemented consistently, she said.

“Our protocols are good, but they are not currently implemented across the district with fidelity,” Rouse said.

Illinois Environmental Protection Agency

Public Notice Proposed Revision of the Federally Enforceable State Operating Permit Joliet Container Terminal, LLC in Joliet Joliet Container Terminal, LLC has requested that the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency revise the federally enforceable state operating permit (FESOP) regulating the air emissions from its grain and feed ingredients receiving, temporarily storage, and shipping facility. The FESOP is being revised per the request of the facility to remove some emission units that were never constructed and emission limits were increased slightly fo the intermodal container/truck loading system. Also, a previously listed condition, Condition 15, was removed as it has since expired. The Illinois EPA has made a preliminary determination that the application would comply with the environmental regulations and has prepared a draft permit for public review.

The Illinois EPA is accepting comments on the draft permit. Comments must be postmarked by midnight May 7, 2017. If sufficient interest is expressed in the permit, a hearing or other informational meeting may be held. Requests for information, comments and questions should be directed to Rachel Stewart, Office of Community Relations, Illinois Environmental Protection Agency, PO. Box 19506, Springfield, Illinois, 62794-9506, phone 217/782-2224, TDD phone number 217/782-9143 or at Rachel.Stewart@illinois.gov.

The repositories for these documents and the application are at the Illinois EPA's offices at 9511 West Harrison in Des Plaines, 847/294-4000, and 1021 North Grand Avenue East, Springfield, 217/782-7027 (please call ahead to assure that someone will be available to assist you). The draft permit and project summary may also be available at http://www.epa.illinois.gov/public-notices/boa-notices/index Copies of the documents may also be obtained upon request to the contact listed above.

The 1990 amendments to the Clean Air Act require potentially major sources of air emissions to obtain federally enforceable operating permits. A FESOP permit allows a source that is potentially major to take operational limits in the permit so that it is a non-major source. The permit will contain federally enforceable limitations that restrict the facility’s emissions to non-major levels. The permit will be enforceable by the USEPA, as well as the Illinois EPA.

LOCKPORT – A much-discussed and long-planned proposal for new pedestrian walkways on portions of Farrell Road and Division and Briggs streets has failed to get approval from the Lockport City Council because of inflated costs.

After a lengthy debate Wednesday night in the committee of the whole meeting before the city council’s regular meeting, a divided council denied D Construction Inc.’s bid of $741,887.43 for the project to connect portions of Farrell Road and Division and Briggs streets with new sidewalks and bike paths for contiguity and better pedestrian access and safety.

Another $100,000 contract with Strand and Associates for engineering inspection services for the project also was denied.

The project originally was approved in 2010 by a previous council when the costs were estimated to be about $570,000, as opposed to the lat-

est estimate of about $850,000.

Council members Joanne Bartelsen, Bob Perretta and J.R. Gillogly voted in favor of both contracts while council members Darren Deskin, Brian Smith, Kris Capadona and Jim Petrakos voted against the project, according to an interview Thursday with City Administrator Ben Benson.

Mayor Steven Streit voted “yes” to get on the record, but his vote did not count and Alderman Jason VanderMeer was absent, Benson said.

Streit, during the discussion portion earlier, said he appreciated that the council was “prudent” about discussing concerns of higher costs and possible cost overruns, which he said are “legitimate,” but ultimately he was in favor of going forth with the project and “honoring what the previous council had started,” as seen on a video of the committee meeting posted on the city website.

Deskin, Petrakos and Smith cited two main concerns: the cost of the

project had risen so high that an Illinois Department of Transportation grant of $456,000 received in 2010 would only cover about 50 percent of the total cost as opposed to 80 percent and portions of the project covered unincorporated areas that fall under Lockport Township.

About 11 homes on the south side of the Farrell Road and Division Street intersection, and another portion along the east side of Briggs Street south of Division Street are unincorporated.

“I cannot, in good conscience, support spending a penny on any portion outside the city limits when three blocks from my house I have roads that are some of the lousiest roads in town,” Deskin said in the video.

Petrakos said the $490,000 of motor fuel tax funds the council allocated early last month for the project could be used instead as the city’s contribution to a possible $2 million future state grant that would cover “a lot more sidewalks.”

While citing safety as a main concern, Perretta and Bartelsen also said they feared that denial of the project would jeopardize future grants by not using one IDOT had held for the city for seven years.

Continued from page 9

Perretta was on the council with Smith when the plan originally was approved in 2010, also said he was certain that this was a project that residents were in favor of despite the unincorporated areas that would benefit and that “residents are the boss.”

Three residents did speak in favor of the project before the council’s vote, including Mervet Nolte of Sizzles restaurant, who said that having contiguous walking paths would benefit children, the elderly and disabled residents for whom walking and riding bikes and scooters on streets pose a safety concern.

“Just because someone hasn’t been hurt yet, doesn’t mean they won’t be hurt in the future,” Nolte said in the video.

Benson said in a phone interview that with the denial of the bid the city would have to pay back IDOT about $44,000 of the original grant money that was used for engineering costs.

He added that the city would go back to IDOT and discuss changing the project – including removing the two unincorporated portions along the south side of Division Street – while staying “within the same footprint” of the original project in order to possibly keep the funding.

Having “to go back to the drawing board,” the project, if it comes to the council again, would not go out to bid until 2018 at the earliest, he said.

By BRIAN STANLEY

bstanley@shawmedia.com JOLIET – Police said a Joliet man exhibited lewd behavior recently in sight of his neighbors.

About 6:15 a.m. Wednesday, a 21-yearold woman left for school from the 800 block of Pine Needle Lane and had to make a U-turn on the dead-end street, Joliet Deputy Chief Al Roechner said.

“As she turned around, she saw a naked man masturbating and watching her while standing in the front window of a residence,” Roechner said.

The woman notified police when she came home in the afternoon, and officers interviewed Pedro Onofre, 52.

Roechner said police also reviewed older reports and learned of an almost identical incident from Dec. 1.

“A 22-year-old woman left her house about 6:30 a.m. and observed a naked man masturbating in the front window,” Roechner said.

After investigators questioned Onofre, he was identified as the suspect in both incidents, Roechner said. Onofre was arrested on two counts of public indecency and two counts of disorderly conduct and released on bond.

J.B. Pritzker announces governor bid

By SARA BURNETT and SOPHIA TAREEN The Associated Press

CHICAGO – Billionaire J.B. Pritzker touted his business record and progressive values Thursday as he kicked off his campaign for Illinois governor, raising the financial stakes in what was already expected to be a costly and competitive fight to unseat Republican Gov. Bruce Rauner.

Pritzker wasted little time in blasting the venture capitalist-turned-governor, even comparing him to President Donald Trump. Rauner has been at odds with the Democrat-controlled Legislature since he took office.

“Gov. Rauner talks about what he might have done or what he tried to get done. It’s past time for all his talk. It’s time for action,” Pritzker told the crowd of union officials and community leaders gathered at a park facility in a predominantly African-American neighborhood on the city’s South Side. “Everything

by Donald Trump and Bruce Rauner.”

Pritzker joins a growing field of Democrats who’ve said they’ll seek their party’s nomination in the March gubernatorial primary, including state Sen. Daniel Biss, Chicago Alderman Ameya Pawar and businessman Chris Kennedy, who is the nephew of former President John F. Kennedy.

News from across the state Illinois House approves new stopgap budget plan

SPRINGFIELD– The Illinois House voted Thursday to tap $817 million in accumulated but unallocated revenue to temporarily relieve struggling universities and human services.

The 64-45 vote represented a largely partisan roll-call, with minority Republicans saying that another temporary spending plan amid the nation’s longest state budget stalemate since World War II would actually hurt long-term efforts.

The vote ended a two-hour debate over a small amount of funding in a plan the Senate can’t even consider until after the General Assembly returns from a two-week spring break. Even then its chances don’t look good because

Last month, Kennedy donated $250,100 to his own campaign, a move that under Illinois campaign finance law lifted the caps on campaign contributions for all candidates. His campaign said he raised another $1 million from about 3,000 donors in the first six weeks of his candidacy.

Biss and Pawar already have made wealth an issue in the campaign, telling voters

that “millionaires and billionaires” shouldn’t have a lock on political power.

“I welcome the debate about whether the future of the Democratic Party will be a vehicle for the very rich and machine politicians or one for the rest of us,” Biss said Thursday in a statement.

An heir to the Hyatt hotels fortune, Pritzker was recently ranked by Forbes magazine as the third-wealthiest person in Illinois, with an estimated net worth of about $3.4 billion.

That easily makes him the wealthiest person running, although Rauner – a multimillionaire who put $50 million into his campaign fund late last year – also has received millions in campaign contributions from Illinois’ richest person, businessman Ken Griffin.

Pritzker, 52, acknowledged his own wealth and opportunity. He said his first job was washing sheets in his parents’ hotels and that his mother raised him with an “abiding sense of social justice.”

“I wake up every morning knowing that I need to work hard to earn what I’ve been given,” he said. He added that Illinois is losing jobs and opportunities because of inaction by Rauner and the state needs to first tax its “millionaires and billionaires” before the middle class.

Rauner’s 2014 race against Democratic Gov. Pat Quinn set a record for spending in Illinois, topping $100 million.

Outside groups already have been active in the 2018 contest as well. Last month, a group affiliated with the Republican Governors Association began airing campaign-style ads featuring Rauner. In them he talks up his efforts to improve Illinois’ business climate and enact changes such as term limits for lawmakers.

The ads come as Rauner and the Democrat-controlled Legislature have been unable to agree on a state budget for nearly two years, leading to major cuts to social services, colleges and other programs.

Republican Gov. Bruce Rauner said he opposes it.

Northeastern Illinois to cancel class for 3 days

CHICAGO – Northeastern Illinois University is planning to cancel three days of classes in order to cut costs as public universities in Illinois struggle to make ends meet during the state’s budget stalemate.

The Chicago-based university will no longer hold classes April 11, 12 and May 1.

Illinois has been without a budget for 21 months and has a $12.9 billion backlog of bills. Northeastern Illinois interim President Richard Helldobler called the state’s unprecedented budget impasse a “state of emergency” for the school.

A statement from the university said administrators also are speaking with labor unions that represent their employees as school officials contemplate a schoolwide shutdown for those three dates.

A complete closure would be the second wave announced by the university in less than a month. The university required

Prison inmate forms two political action committees

CHICAGO – An Illinois man sentenced to 10 years in prison for bilking an acquaintance out of $93,000 has started two political action committees from behind bars.

The Center for Public Integrity reported that Angelo Pesce is a convicted felon and cannot vote, but there’s nothing stopping him from creating the fundraising entities.

Papers filed last week with the Federal Election Commission identify the 51-year-old Pesce as the PACs’ treasurer and agent and list his mailing address as the Taylorville Correctional Center in central Illinois.

The filings don’t explain who or what will benefit from the donations, but the name of one urges impeachment of an unnamed target referenced with an expletive and the other appears to support pedophiles.

Woman sues Uber, says she was stabbed by passenger

CHICAGO – A Chicago woman has sued Uber and a customer of the ride-sharing company, saying she was stabbed by another passenger.

Jennifer Camacho said she called an UberPool for a ride home Jan. 30. She said the passenger in the front seat began slashing her in the face as soon as she got in. The lawsuit filed in Cook County Circuit Court contends the 25-year-old Camacho suffered several facial wounds.

Plaintiff’s attorney Bryant Greening said Uber was negligent. Greening is seeking a judgment of more than $50,000 for medical bills, lost wages, and pain and suffering.

Uber spokeswoman Kayla Whaling declined to comment on the lawsuit.

Chicago police arrested 34-year-old Julie Ramer for the attack on Camacho and charged her with battery.

Senate GOP clears way for court pick

By ERICA WERNER

The Associated Press WASHINGTON – Republicans invoked the “nuclear option” Thursday in the Senate, unilaterally rewriting the chamber’s rules to allow President Donald Trump’s nominee to ascend to the Supreme Court.

Furious Democrats objected until the end, but their efforts to block Judge Neil Gorsuch failed as expected. Lawmakers of both parties bemoaned the long-term implications for the Senate, the court and the country.

“We will sadly point to today as a turning point in the history of the Senate and the Supreme Court,” said Minority Leader Chuck Schumer of New York.

The maneuvering played out in an atmosphere of tension in the Senate chamber with most senators in their seats, a rare and theatrical occurrence.

First Democrats mounted a filibuster in an effort to block Gorsuch by denying him the 60 votes needed to advance to a final vote. Then Republican Majority Leader Mitch McConnell of Kentucky raised a point of order, suggesting that Supreme Court nominees should not be subjected to a 60-vote threshold but instead a simple majority in the

100-member Senate.

McConnell was overruled, but appealed the ruling. And on that he prevailed on a 5248 party line vote. The 60-vote filibuster requirement on Supreme Court nominees was effectively gone, and with it the last vestige of bipartisanship on presidential nominees in an increasingly polarized Senate.

A final confirmation vote on Gorsuch is expected Friday and he could then be sworn in in time to take his seat on the court later this month and hear the final cases of the term.

The maneuvering played out with much hand-wringing from all sides about the future of the Senate, as well as unusually bitter accusations and counter-accusations as each side blamed the other. The rules change is known as the “nuclear option” because of its far-reaching implications.

McConnell accused Democrats of forcing his hand by trying to filibuster a highly qualified nominee in Gorsuch, 49, a 10-year veteran of the 10th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Denver with a consistently conservative record. McConnell vowed that the rules change would block the Gorsuch filibuster, and all future ones, a change many lawmakers lamented could lead to an even more polarized Senate, court and country.

U.S. missiles blast air base in Syria The ASSOCIATED PRESS PALM BEACH, Fla. – The U.S. blasted a Syrian air base with a barrage of cruise missiles Thursday night in fiery retaliation for this week’s gruesome chemical weapons attack against civilians. President Donald Trump cast the U.S. assault as vital to deter future use of poison gas and called on other nations to join in seeking “to end the slaughter and bloodshed in Syria.”

It was the first direct American assault on the Syrian government and Trump’s most dramatic military order since becoming president just more than two months ago. The strikes also risk thrusting the U.S. deeper into an intractable conflict that his predecessor spent years trying to avoid.

Announcing the assault from his Florida resort, Trump said there was no doubt Syrian President Bashar Assad was responsible for the chemical attack, which he said employed banned gases and killed dozens.

“Assad choked out the lives of helpless men, women and children,” Trump declared.

The U.S. strikes – about 59 missiles launched from the USS Ross and USS Porter – hit the government-controlled Shayrat air base in central Syria, where U.S. officials said the Syrian military planes that dropped the chemicals had taken off. The U.S. missiles hit at 8:45 p.m. in Washington, 3:45 Friday morning in Syria. The missiles targeted the base’s airstrips, hangars, control tower and ammunition areas, officials said.

Trump approved the strikes without approval from Congress or the backing of the United Nations. The White House said about two dozen lawmakers from both parties were briefed on the actions.

U.S. Navy via AP

In this image provided by the U.S. Navy, the USS Ross fires a tomahawk land attack missile Friday from the Mediterranean Sea. Syrian state TV reported a U.S. missile attack on a number of military targets and called the attack an “aggression.”

The U.S. assault marked a striking reversal for Trump, who warned as a candidate against the U.S. being pulled into the Syrian civil war that began six years ago. But the president appeared moved by the photos of children killed in the chemical attack, calling it a “disgrace to humanity” that crossed “a lot of lines.”

U.S. officials placed some of the blame on Russia, one of Syria’s most important benefactors. Secretary of State Rex Tillerson, in Florida with Trump, said Moscow had failed in living up to a 2013 agreement that was intended to strip Syria of its chemical weapons stockpiles.

“Either Russia has been complicit or Russia has been simply incompetent in its ability to deliver on its end of the agreement,” Tillerson said.

About 60 U.S. Tomahawk missiles, fired from warships in the Mediterranean Sea, targeted an air base in retaliation for the attack that America believes Syrian government aircraft launched with

the nerve agent sarin mixed with chlorine gas. The president did not announce the attacks in advance, although he and other national security officials ratcheted up their warnings to the Syrian government throughout the day Thursday.

The strike came as Trump was hosting Chinese President Xi Jinping in meetings focused in part on another pressing U.S. security dilemma: North Korea’s nuclear program.

Trump’s actions in Syria could signal to China that the new president isn’t afraid of unilateral military steps, even if key nations such as China are standing in the way.

“This clearly indicates the president is willing to take decisive action when called for,” Tillerson said.

Trump has advocated greater counterterrorism cooperation with Russia, Assad’s most powerful military backer. Just last week, the Trump administration signaled the U.S. was no longer interested in trying to push Assad from power over his direction of a conflict that has killed hundreds of thousands of people and led to the worst refugee crisis since World War II.

Still potential problems with NCAA in N.C.

If you’re looking for a lesson in sugar-coating a pickle, we’d suggest you take a look at the statement Senate leader Phil Berger and House Speaker Tim Moore released Tuesday after the NCAA agreed to consider North Carolina for future tournaments and championship games.

Here’s what they said: “We are pleased with the NCAA’s decision and acknowledgment that our compromise legislation ‘restores the state to ... a landscape similar to other jurisdictions presently hosting NCAA championships.’”

We don’t want to rain on the lawmakers’ victory parade, but we need to point out that the NCAA Board of Governors said it “reluctantly voted to allow consideration of championship bids in North Carolina by our committees that are presently meeting.”

It wasn’t just reluctant. It was also conditional. “As with most compromises,” the NCAA said in a statement, “this new law is far from perfect.” The replacement legislation, House Bill 142, “minimally achieved a situation where we believe NCAA championships may be conducted in a nondiscriminatory environment,” the collegiate athletic sanctioning group said.

But that doesn’t mean a free pass for future tournaments.

Any North Carolina site that is awarded a championship event, the NCAA said, must “submit documentation demonstrating how student athletes and fans will be protected from discrimination.”

The state’s own anti-discrimination laws don’t offer protection for sexual identity or preference.

It’s still legal in North Carolina to discriminate against gays, lesbians and transgender people

THE FIRST

AMENDMENT

because of who and what they are. And House Bill 142 prohibits municipalities from passing their own anti-discrimination ordinances until December of 2020. So, what happens when the NCAA comes knocking and asks a potential host site to show how LGBT civil rights will be protected? The party could be over fast.

House Bill 142 also says the state has the sole right to regulate access to multiple-occupancy bathrooms, locker rooms and changing facilities. And although they’re not talking publicly about gender identity, two Republican lawmakers are preparing to file a bill creating tougher punishments for people trespassing in bathrooms reserved for the opposite sex. Not hard to figure out where this is going. We expect the NCAA might notice, too.

We suggest putting a big cork in that bottle and taking a more intelligent approach to an incendiary issue. State Sen. Wesley Meredith of Fayetteville talked last week about the testimony of a transgender man and woman who appeared before the Senate Rules Committee during House Bill 142 debate. “That’s the first time someone’s put a face with what’s going on,” Meredith said.

“We need to have a discussion.

And those people came to Rules and expressed how they felt. But we need to talk to them, like I’m talking to you. We’ve never done that.”

About time our lawmakers do exactly that, and we’re grateful to Sen. Meredith for suggesting it.

It’s likely to be a lot more effective than trying to sugar-coat a pickle.

Talking about child abuse to combat issue It can make people uncomfortable, uneasy. After all, there is nothing about the subject that is any good.

But we need to talk about it.

April is Child Abuse Awareness Month in Illinois, and throughout the country. With that, The Southern will publish a story every day to bring further awareness to the problem, and highlight the efforts of those working diligently to combat it throughout our region.

Southern Illinois has a lot of hard-working people and organizations that make it their mission to help abused children. With this series, we hope to do our part alongside the others who do such a great job – and all the while telling the stories of what they do and what they want to accomplish.

The way to start fixing this problem begins with talking about the problem, then doing something about it.

And Southern Illinois has a problem with child abuse. Statewide, there are 9.7 incidents of abuse per 1,000. In Southern Illinois, every single county’s rate is higher. Some counties clock double and almost triple the state rate.

Poverty is a major factor.

“In poor areas, abuse and neglect go up,” Franklin County State’s Attorney Evan Owens said Friday at a Child Abuse Awareness Month kick-off event at John A. Logan College.

Some of the other statistics provided by the Illinois Department of Children and Family Services are staggering.

Without a state budget in place, some organizations in Southern Illinois – and throughout the state – are having difficulties just keeping the doors open.

But, after all, life goes on with or without a budget. Just because we don’t have a budget doesn’t mean that the abuse stops or the need for these services stop.

If the numbers show anything, it’s that these services need more help. And poverty is prevalent in Southern Illinois.

The help needs to come from somewhere.

Child abuse isn’t going to get any easier to talk to about. It will always be an uneasy subject.

But, if you see something, speak up.

If you see a child in need, listen. If you see the signs for help or attention, by all means, help.

That’s the only way this problem will start to ease.

Friday’s event had four speakers deliver powerful messages to the crowd.

BOYS VOLLEYBALL: PLAINFIELD SOUTH 2, MINOOKA 0 (25-19,25-20)

EXPERIENCE PAYS OFF

Plainfield South beats Minooka, off to good start

By CURT HERRON

cherron@shawmedia.com JOLIET – With a team featuring eight seniors, several of whom have played together at the high school and club levels for many years, Plainfield South’s boys volleyball team has good reason to be optimistic about having a special year.

A good early-season indication of where the Cougars stand came Thursday when they hosted a Minooka program that has not only regularly contended for the Southwest Prairie Conference championship, but has won it, and also advanced to state three times since 2010.

While South coach Taryn Surbaugh knows that the Indians are young this season because of the graduation of a talented class, she emphasized to her team to not take them lightly.

Fortunately, the Cougars followed her advice and stepped up when they were challenged, moving on to capture a 25-19, 25-20 victory over their Ridge Road rivals.

“Last year our only two losses in conference were to Minooka, so it’s definitely a program that you don’t ever want to take lightly,” Surbaugh said. “Our guys want to work on how the team feels to them this year, and I told them to not work on feels, let’s get in systems and play ball, no matter who we’re playing. And especially since it was Minooka, because I told them that if we gave them an opportunity, they were going to take it from us.

“I’m really interested in trying to develop our players who are a little bit behind the scenes. Guys like Logan Nash and Brandon Langys are going to do their jobs, and we expect them

Those guys matter because if we can’t get them on board, then your stars can’t do anything. I’m looking forward to see how they round themselves into players so we look more like a complete team.”

The score was tied at 14-14 in the opening set when South (6-1, 2-0) used a 5-0 run to take control for good. Eddie

Jakubauskas (three kills, four digs) got a kill before Matt Friddle (five blocks, 12 assists, three aces) added a block and a kill to give the Cougars a five-point lead, and the Indians (25, 1-1) never got any closer than three points.

Minooka owned several leads during the opening stages of the last set before the Cougars started to pull away to lead by as much as 19-15. But

the Indians responded with a 4-0 run with Noah Easter supplying a block and a kill to create a 19-19 tie. After a kill by Grant Ooms (five kills) tied the score at 20-20, the hosts scored the final five points to wrap up the win. Friddle had two aces, and Logan Nash had two kills during that closing run.

20 BOYS VOLLEYBALL: PLAINFIELD CENTRAL 2, JOLIET CENTRAL 0 (25-20, 25-21)

Plainfield Central gets first ‘W’ against Joliet Central

By DICK GOSS

dgoss@shawmedia.com PLAINFIELD – The Plainfield Central boys volleyball team entered Thursday night’s Southwest Prairie Conference matchup against visiting Joliet Central without a victory.

However, the Wildcats had showed positive signs as they dropped threeset decisions to always-potent Lincoln-Way East and to Oswego.

With senior setter Zach Boyda accumulating five digs, 18 assists and two blocks, the Wildcats put a notch in the left-hand column Thursday with a 25-20, 25-21 triumph over the Steelmen.

“Our serve-receiving was better than it was the past two games,” Boyda said. “I thought our offense ran a lot smoother. We were able to get our subs in, and that was good.”

“It was a good team win,” first-year Plainfield Central coach Christian Staple said. “The guys came into this game not really knowing what to expect after the two losses we had.

“Our serve-receive was very good, and defensively we dug a lot of balls.

We’re continuing to work on our offense, the timing and tempo. You saw the good and bad of that tonight.”

Indeed, Joliet Central (2-10, 0-2) stayed within striking distance in both sets, with errors on the Wildcats’ part contributing to the tightness of the scores.

The Steelmen, in fact, led 15-12 in the first set before the Wildcats (1-2, 1-1) went on a 5-0 run that included kills by Juan Ortega and Jack Buczek.

After Joliet Central drew even at 17-17 when Jack Lewis served an ace, Plainfield Central took command again, with Ortega serving consecutive aces to make it 22-18. The Wildcats ended it on a Marc Arsenault kill and two Joliet Central errors.

In the second set, the Steelmen led 9-8 and battled back into a 12-12 tie before the Wildcats moved ahead to stay.

Joliet Central did claw back within 2018 on a kill by Ignacio Rios, but got no closer.

“I thought Nick Ilibasic, our outside and senior captain, and [sophomore] Brendan Burns stepped up,” Boyda said. “And our two middles, Juan Ortega and Noah Sampson, both did some good things.”

Ilibasic totaled six kills and six digs. Sampson, Buczek and Burns chipped in four kills and Sampson had two blocks.

Staple, an Illinois graduate, was an assistant at Benet Academy the past two years and is a graduate assistant for men’s volleyball at North Central.

“It’s a new system, and the guys are still getting comfortable with it and with the new coaching staff,” said Staple, whose roster features nine seniors, three juniors and two sophomores. “We keep telling them that they have to believe in the process.”

Plainfield Central will get an idea where it stands when competing Saturday in the Glenbard East Springfest Tournament.

“There are lots of good teams there, but if we keep playing like this, I think

we could surprise a lot of people,” Boyda said.

“Pool play in the tournament will show us where we are,” Staple said.

Joliet Central has played much more often in the early season than Plainfield Central and continues to search for offense.

“We’re trying mentally to overcome the little runs that we have been giving up,” Steelmen coach Zak Krumlinde said. “Our defense was good, but we can’t execute offensively. We get digs and blocks and touches and can’t turn them into good offensive plays.

A former Minooka standout, Krumlinde played two years at Lewis and two at St. Ambrose. He is in his fourth season as the Steelmen’s head coach.

“We’re a young team with a couple club players,” he said. “Everyone can play when things are going well, but we have to learn to play when it’s hard.”

Rios totaled five kills for Joliet Central and Raviel Winters had nine assists.

• BOYS VOLLEYBALL Continued from page 19

Other Cougars leaders were Andrew Colantone (10 assists, two blocks, five kills), Brandon Langys (seven digs), Mykkel Wilke (two blocks) and Mark Guzman (three blocks).

“This is our first win over them in a long time,” Colantone said. “We have a lot of guys who’ve been together for a while and our team has a strong base, where everything that we know is strong. We’re strong at every position and know what we’re doing, and we don’t have any newbies, and that always helps. We’re all friends outside of school, hang out and know each other well. We have big plans, and I hope that we make some serious moves this year.”

The Cougars are hopeful that their combination of talented players with experience and their close bond pays off by helping them to produce the best season in the program’s history.

“We’re all pretty knowledgeable in our positions, and this is a team full of leaders who know each other’s weaknesses and strengths so we can pick each other up,” Wilke said. “The chemistry is crazy on this team. Since we’ve been around since the seventh grade, we have that bond that you don’t see often. We want to be up on the wall as conference champs. Communication will be huge, and the leadership that we have in different ways will pay off.”

Other top performers for Minooka were Alginon Lewis (seven kills), Matt Kurtz (18 assists) and libero Jack Bauer,

Kargle, the Indians longtime assistant, took over head coaching duties from Janel Grzetich, who now serves as his assistant.

“We’re a young team, not that that’s an excuse,” Kargle said. “We’ve got guys that have the skill set, and I think a big

portion of it will be getting used to the speed of the varsity level game. We’ve made some huge improvements already this year, and there’s really nowhere to go but up from here. South has a couple of really good players, and they’ve been around together and taken their lumps, and now they’re ready to dish them out.

“These guys are probably harder

on themselves than what we could be as coaches. They know the history of the program. They’ve talked to guys and have seen the trophy cases, so they know what’s going on and who doesn’t want to be a part of that. They don’t want to be the squad that just showed up. They want to be a squad that put their names on something.”

CUBS 6, CARDINALS 4

The Cubs’ Kyle Schwarber swings on a three-run home run during the seventh inning against the Cardinals on Thursday in St. Louis. dale crew after one of his batting practice homers hit one of the horses on the butt as the team pulled its wagon alongside the Cubs’ practice field in spring training near the end of camp. Until Thursday, he had hung the horseshoe

in his locker “upside down,” with the luck allegedly spilling out.

Schwarber’s return and position in the order is the most significant change for the Cubs since last year’s 103-win, World Series-championship success – and what some suggest makes the lineup better on paper.

Or at least in St. Louis on this third game of the season.

“It’s really cool,” he said. “From Day 1 I was really looking forward to this. There’s a long way to go, but it was definitely a good win for the team and to get momentum going into the next series.”

It didn’t look quite so good much of the game after second baseman Ben Zobrist dropped shortstop Addison Russell’s throw on the pivot of what should have been a routine, inning-ending double play. A run scored on the play, and after two more singles off Lackey, the Cubs quickly trailed, 3-0.

“You can’t do much about it once it’s over,” said Lackey (1-0), who gave up two hits and a run the rest of the way to get through six – recording 10 straight outs at one point. “You’d like for it to look a little different. After that, you just try to battle and try to keep your team in it and try to win the game.”

AREA ROUNDUP

Three USF men’s athletes recognized by CCAC SUBMITTED REPORTS JOLIET – The University of St. Francis swept the Chicagoland Collegiate Athletic Conference men’s track and field weekly honor roll courtesy of the performances of senior Kyle Mitchell and junior Cam Knudsen over the weekend.

Mitchell, a Plainfield Central graduate, was named the CCAC Field Athlete of the Week after authoring a pair of “A” standard marks at the Lindenwood University Invitational.

He gained top honors in shot put, beating out 53 other competitors with his throw of 16.34 meters. He followed with a runner-up finish out of 25 challengers in discus with his 52.23-meter toss.

Knudsen, a Minooka graduate, collected CCAC Track Athlete of the Week accolades after finishing second in a field of more than 200 runners in the 5,000-meter race at the Washington University St. Louis Invitational. He recorded a time of 14:27.71, which automatically qualified him for outdoor nationals.

ST. LOUIS – When Kyle Schwarber got done with the first pitch he saw from left-hander Brett Cecil in the seventh inning Thursday, the Cardinals – and anyone else watching – knew what the Cubs were talking about all spring when they touted Schwarber as their new-age leadoff hitter.

“There’s a lot of lineups that are probably bunting right there with their leadoff guy,” pitcher John Lackey said.

“Our guy’s trying to hit it in the seats.

It’s a little bit different.”

Schwarber turned on Cecil’s first pitch for a no-doubt, three-run homer down the right-field line to give the Cubs the lead in a 6-4 victory at Busch Stadium that turned into a rain-extended, weeklong, season-opening series victory over the rival Cardinals – setting a tone, if not painting a picture, of how the Cubs hope to go about business in their championship defense this year.

Schwarber is at the center of that picture – by his mere presence, never mind his presence as Dexter Fowler’s replacement in the leadoff spot.

That much was made clear by what

manager Joe Maddon called a particularly “raucous” postgame celebration Thursday, with teammates singling out Schwarber for more than just the mammoth home run.

“It was exciting,” Schwarber said.

“Someone yelled, ‘You made it past Game 3,’ and then we all went crazy.”

It was Game 3 of last season when Schwarber collided with center fielder Fowler in left-center, suffering a knee injury so severe it required reconstructive surgery and sidelined him for the rest of the regular season and first two rounds of the playoffs.

He became a World Series hero by returning early to start four road games as the Cubs’ designated hitter against Cleveland.

If he was playoff ready then, imagine what he’d be ready to do if the playoffs started tomorrow.

“I know, right?” said Schwarber, laughing, after reaching base seven times in 14 plate appearances this week, with a double, three walks and the big home run.

“I turned the horseshoe around, too,” he said. “I turned it up so I could make it through.”

That’s a reference to the horseshoe he was given by the Budweiser Clydes-

24 THE MASTERS

Hoffman soars after Johnson sits

By DOUG FERGUSON The Associated Press

AUGUSTA, Ga. – In the toughest opening round at the Masters in 10 years, it all felt so easy to Charley Hoffman.

For the better part of three hours, in a ferocious Leaderboard wind that made the Georgia First-round leaders: pines creak, he Charley Hoffman -7 had the right William McGirt -3 yardage for the Lee Westwood -2 perfect club to Russell Henley -1 hit every shot Kevin Chappell -1 he wanted. And Andy Sullivan -1 then he made Matthew Fitzpatrick -1 the putts, so Phil Mickelson -1 many that it felt Justin Rose -1 as though he Jason Dufner -1 never missed.

Hoffman Sergio Garcia -1 made seven birdies over his last 11 holes for a 7-under-par 65.

It was 10 shots better than the average score Thursday at Augusta National. His four-shot lead was the largest for the opening round at the Masters in 62 years.

“For lack of any better words,” Hoffman said, “it was a dream.”

It was even more surreal for Dustin Johnson.

He didn’t even get to play.

Johnson, No. 1 in the world and playing the best golf of his life, was a few minutes away from his tee time when his head overruled his heart. He left the practice green and took a sharp turn away from the first tee toward the clubhouse to withdraw because of a freak injury to his back.

“My heart is in it and wants to play,”

Charley Hoffman hits a drive on the 18th hole during the first round of the Masters on Thursday in Augusta, Ga. Hoffman leads by four strokes after a 7-under-par 65. he said. “The more I thought about it, I just wasn’t going to have a chance.”

Johnson still was trying to digest the past 24 hours, as shocking as any for a No. 1 player going into a major. He was in his rental home Wednesday when he went to move his car in a downpour because his 2-year-old son was on his way back from day care. Wearing only socks, he slipped on the hardwood steps and crashed onto his left elbow and lower back, calling for his brother to help him up.

Even as he tried to warm up Thursday, he slowly shook his head because of the pain he felt when he struck the ball.

“To have a freak accident happen, it [stinks],” Johnson said. “It [stinks] really bad.”

Not having Johnson around didn’t make the Masters any easier.

With gusts approaching 40 mph, Hoffman and Masters newcomer William McGirt (69) were the only players to break 70.

Hoffman didn’t have reason to believe he would be one of them. He three-putted his third hole for bogey.

He three-putted the fifth hole for bogey, both putts affected by the wind.

“After that, I can’t remember missing a putt,” Hoffman said.

Hoffman’s four-shot lead was the largest at the Masters for the opening round since Jack Burke Jr. had a fourshot lead in 1955.

Lee Westwood, who has the credentials as the best player to never have won a major, ran off five straight bird-

Day starts with tribute to Palmer

By DOUG FERGUSON The Associated Press

AUGUSTA, Ga. – The Masters began Thursday with two ceremonial tee shots and one empty chair.

In a somber tribute to Arnold Palmer, who died in September, Augusta National chairman Billy Payne escorted Palmer’s widow to the first tee for the honorary start.

Payne also carried Palmer’s green jacket and draped it over a chair where Palmer had sat last April.

This is the first Masters without the King since 1954.

“The almost unbearable sad-

ness we feel at the passing of Arnold is surpassed only by the love and affection for him that will always reside in our heart,” Payne said as thousands crammed around the first tee on a crisp morning full of sunshine and wind.

Every fan through the gate received a button that said, “I am a member of Arnie’s Army.”

Payne asked for a moment of silence so everyone could remember their own experience with Palmer – did anyone in golf have more friends? – and then turned it over to Jack Nicklaus and Gary Player for the ceremonial tee shots.

Player, who jokingly asked for a mulligan at age 81, drilled one down the middle. Nicklaus got him by about 5 yards, although Player was quick to announce it as a tie.

That’s how it was among the “Big Three” – Palmer, Nicklaus and Player, whose 34 majors among them included one stretch in the 1960s in which they combined to win the Masters seven straight times. They were best of friends off the course and hated losing to one another on the course.

Palmer had been part of the honorary start since 2007.

ies late in the afternoon and salvaged a 70. Only eight other players broke par, a group that included Phil Mickelson, Olympic gold medalist Justin Rose and Sergio Garcia.

Rory McIlroy, needing only a green jacket to complete the career Grand Slam, used a nifty short game to stay in the mix. He saved two tough pars after missing the green in the wrong spots on Nos. 10 and 11, ran off three birdies in the middle of the back nine, and closed with another good par save for a 72.

The wind was so strong that it blew golf balls some 6 feet on the greens as Adam Scott and defending champion Danny Willett were getting ready to putt.

The par-5 15th hole, historically the easiest at Augusta National, was the ninth hardest because of strong gusts and a back pin. No need to explain that to Jordan Spieth. One shot spun back into the water. Another shot went well over the green. He made a quadruple-bogey 9 and shot 75.

“If you catch the wrong gust at the wrong time, then you look stupid, like I did on 12,” Thomas Pieters said. “But that’s just Augusta, I guess.”

Pieters reached 5 under until a pair of double bogeys on the back nine, including the par-3 12th, that sent him to a 72.

McGirt, who qualified for his first Masters by winning the Memorial last year, thought he had a good omen when he saw Jack Nicklaus on Wednesday and the six-time Masters champion told him that Augusta and Muirfield Village had enough similarities that McGirt would be fine.

He made only one bogey, had a few tough par saves and a few birdies and shot 69.

Butler has triple-double, fuels Bulls past 76ers

By DAN GELSTON

The Associated Press PHILADELPHIA – Jimmy Butler had 19 points, 10 rebounds and 10 assists and helped give Chicago’s playoff hopes a needed boost in the Bulls’ 10290 victory over the Philadelphia 76ers on Thursday night.

The Bulls, Miami and Indiana entered the night with 38-40 records and in a three-way tie for seventh place in the Eastern Conference playoff race.

Butler had his fourth career triple-double.

Rajon Rondo sat out with a sprained right wrist, and Dwyane Wade missed

another game with a fractured right elbow. Wade, who scrimmaged Wednesday for the first time since he was injured March 15, could return as early as Saturday’s game at Brooklyn.

Wade, who averaged 18.6 points in his first Jimmy Butler season with his hometown team, had been ruled out for the season. But Wade was working hard to join the team minus any serious setbacks.

Rondo was hurt Tuesday night in a loss to New York.

With Rondo and Wade sidelined,

the Bulls still cruised against the lowly Sixers. Jerian Grant scored 15 points starting for Rondo, Nikola Mirotic scored 22, and the Bulls took a 14-point lead in the first half.

Timothe Luwawu-Cabarrot led the Sixers with 18 points.

The Bulls wasted an opportunity when they lost to New York and could not afford a second straight road defeat to an Eastern Conference also-ran. The Bulls, who hold a tiebreaker over the Heat and the Pacers, improved to 7-4 since they lost Wade.

The Sixers gave up 141 points Tuesday against Brooklyn, and their defense was only slightly better against the

Bulls. The Bulls seemed on the brink of missing the postseason for a second straight year just a few weeks ago.

Mirotic hit his fifth 3 of the game late in the fourth to make it 97-82, and the Bulls firmed up a playoff spot with two key cogs set to return. Butler earned his 10th assist on Mirotic’s sixth 3 to clinch his fourth career triple-double.

Bulls notes: The Bulls have won 13 of 14 against the Sixers. ... The Bulls have defeated the Sixers seven straight times in Philadelphia. ... Michael Carter-Williams, 2013-14 NBA Rookie of the Year with the 76ers, received mostly boos when he checked in off the bench.

cited and ready to enjoy the ride.”

Shields tipped his cap to teammates for staying focused through the rainouts and coming ready to play. Aside from mislplayed fly balls by Avisail Garcia and Leury Garcia in the outfield, Renteria was satisfied with execution that included two double plays.

“I’m very happy that it’s in the books,” Renteria said of his first win.

Petricka on DL; Kahnle recalled: Righthander Jake Petricka was placed on

the 10-day disabled list (retroactive to Wednesday) with a strained right lat, and right-hander Tommy Kahnle was recalled from Triple-A Charlotte.

Petricka, 28, pitched a scoreless inning in the opener Tuesday.

“After we took him out, he came in after and said he was a little sore,” Renteria said.

Kahnle, 27, was 0-1 with a 2.63 ERA in 29 relief appearances last season. He pitched a scoreless ninth Thursday.

CHICAGO – The wait was worth it for the White Sox, who evened their record to 1-1 in a big way by clobbering the Tigers, 11-2, Thursday for their first victory after trudging through two rainouts and a loss in Rick Renteria’s first week as manager.

Behind two homers from catcher Geovany Soto, a homer and triple from designated hitter Matt Davidson and a solid start from right-hander James Shields, the Sox built a 9-1 lead after four innings and enjoyed a laugher on a cold and windy yet sunny afternoon at Guaranteed Rate Field.

Shields (1-0), a career-worst 6-19 with a 5.85 ERA between the Padres and Sox last season, worked through five walks and allowed one run – a Tyler Collins homer in the second – over 51/3 innings, allowing two hits and striking out five.

“I was actually a little erratic, to be honest with you,” Shields said, “but I kept them off-balance when I could and got a few pop-ups today when we needed it. And the boys scored some runs or me.”

With the wind blowing out at 23

mph to start the game, Shields managed to keep the ball in the park. Soto, who like Davidson did not start in the Sox’ 6-3 season-opening loss to the Tigers on Tuesday, got the nod against left-hander Matthew Boyd, and responded with his first multihomer game since he played for the Cubs in 2011, going deep to left in the third inning and to center in the seventh against lefty Justin Wilson.

James Shields Davidson tripled off the right-field fence in the second against Boyd and hit a hanging changeup from Anibal Sanchez 428 feet to left in the fourth. Soto and Davidson combined for seven RBIs, four

by Soto.

“I’m here to do anything they want me to do,” Soto said. “I’m here to play.

I’m here to win. I’m here to work.”

Davidson broke his foot rounding first when he was called up from Triple-A last year. His first game since will be a better memory.

“There will be a lot of firsts this year,” he said, “traveling, getting a full season and not a call-up, so I’m just ex-

A LIBRARY ON ICE

‘Through the Pages’ will showcase students’ skating and acting abilities

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

JOLIET – Picture it.

Six graduating seniors are studying for finals at the library. They fall asleep. And the books come to life.

On skates.

On Friday and Saturday, Inwood Skate School will present its annual ice show, “Through the Pages,” at the Joliet Park District. Ninety-eight skaters ages 4 through 18 will participate, from beginning students to advanced students who execute complicated double jumps.

“Not quite the level you see on TV,” show co-producer Erin Moncek said.

“But impressive just the same.”

Featured books and characters include Alexander Hamilton, Winnie the Pooh, Paddington Bear, Sherlock Holmes and even Harry Potter, played

by Will Roberts, 8, of Shorewood.

“My tie’s so long it goes down to my knees,” Will said.

Allison Szubert, 8, of Plainfield has

WHAT: “Through the Pages” WHEN: 7 p.m. Friday and 2 and 7 p.m. Saturday WHERE: Joliet Park District, 3000 W. Jefferson St., Joliet TICKETS: $8 for adults, $6 for ages 3 to 13, and seniors 62 and older. Free for children younger than 3.

INFO: Call 815-741-7275, ext. 305, or visit jolietpark.org/annual-ice-show.

a green costume for her portrayal of “The NeverEnding Story.” She has one good reason why the community should attend this year’s show.

“Because it’s fun to watch people,” Allison said.

Skaters will perform group numbers and solos, as well as act. And the tots, Moncek said, who come out, smile and do a routine are “the steal of the show.”

“They’re so darn cute,” show co-producer Deanna Tully said. “They could just stand there and blow kisses.”

On the other end of the spectrum is Cora Menelli, 18, of Plainfield, who’s skated for 12 years and taught students age 10 and younger for two years. Menelli is playing one of the six seniors, as well as Alexander Hamilton, and is excited about the challenge of acting

while skating.

In fact, “Through the Pages,” is her favorite of all the skating shows she’s done.

“I just feel like more of our personalities show,” Menelli said. “We all get our own special touches this year.”

Menelli, who also dances, is happy to be back on the ice after two reconstructive hip surgeries.

“I went back after the first surgery before they told me to,” Menelli said.

With college and then a career

ahead, Menelli doubts she’ll ever skate with the same intensity again. She’s already easing away from competing. “[Skating] will be more therapeutic,” Menelli said. “But I’ll still work here in the summer.”

All skaters have worked extra hard to prepare for the show. Depending on the roles, this has meant one or more extra rehearsals a week.

But “Through the Pages” is more than a skate recital. It’s a full-length musical complete with lights, sound and costumes.

“It’s the time for our skaters to be little Broadway stars,” Moncek said.

And it’s Tully and Moncek’s “brilliant minds” that make the show come together, Tully said with a laugh.

“One year I’ll come up with an idea, and the next year she’ll come up with one,” Tully said.

Both feel they collaborate well. Like Rodgers and Hammerstein, perhaps?

Moncek and Tully exchanged grins.

“That’s exactly how we like to think of it,” Moncek said.

Lockport Township High School freshmen Spiros Poulos (from left), Anthony Crapia and Jonathon Studniarz.

LOCKPORT – On Feb. 24, the French 1 students at Lockport Township High School central campus participated in the annual Mardi Gras celebration.

Madame (Anne) Lee and her students enjoyed the ever-popular “build your own crepe” buffet along with some tasty treats of traditional New Orleans cuisine. In addition, students played a few games such as “Flip the Crepe” and Mardi Gras Bingo in French.

Students also were invited to take pictures with their friends at the “selfie photo booth” using fun Mardi Gras costume props, and take a “walking tour” of the history and traditions of Mardi Gras in New Orleans, Louisi-

ana.

The celebration also was part of the kickoff to National French Week (Feb. 27 to March 3).

Every year, Lee invites the entire freshman campus to participate in the daily trivia contest about the French-speaking world and culture.

Prizes in the form of gift cards are awarded in a drawing to students who answer the questions correctly.

In addition, Lee teaches both faculty and students a fun French “phrase of the day.” Madame Lee enjoys exposing a little taste of the Francophone World and culture to the school and continues to promote the phenomenal French program to the students.

34 Link between cellphone use, cancer tenuous Dear Doctor: I’ve heard that cellphones increase the risk of brain tumors – and also that they don’t. Which is true?

Dear Reader: First, let’s look at brain tumors in general. They are classified as either benign or malignant, meaning cancerous. The most common type of benign brain tumor is a meningioma, which arises from the meninges, the outer lining of the brain and spinal cord. The most common type of malignant brain tumor is a glioma, which arises from glial cells that line the individual nerve cells.

Ionizing radiation from nuclear accidents or explosions, radiation therapy, or even too-frequent dental X-rays can increase the risk of brain tumors. This type of radiation can lead to mutations within the DNA, increasing the risk of tumor cells.

Cellphones and cordless phones, on the other hand, emit radiofrequency energy, a form of non-ionizing radiation. This type of radiation has little potential to cause DNA damage. From that perspective, because cellphones produce non-ionizing radiation, their risk of cancer should be pretty low.

Now let’s check out the data.

A 2015 Swedish study in the Journal Oncology Reports looked at meningiomas diagnosed between 1997 and 2009. People with meningiomas filled out questionnaires asking about their use of cellphones, home cordless phones and analog phones (phones attached to a wire). The authors also asked whether the patients had placed the phone toward one ear or the other, or used both ears equally.

The authors found no statistical difference between cellphone use and cordless phone use when compared to analog phones.

However, those with the greatest amount of cordless and cellphone use had a higher rate of meningiomas compared to those with the lowest amount of cordless and cellphone use.

The interesting aspect of this is that those who frequently used analog phones

SUDOKU

ASK THE DOCTORS Robert Ashley also had more meningiomas than those who used analog phones less frequently. So this research carries the possibility of recall bias, in which someone with a disease may overly represent a possible risk factor.

A 2017 analysis of many studies, published in the journal Neurological Sciences, found no overall association between cellphone use and brain tumors. Rather, the authors found many studies on the topic were methodologically flawed.

The authors did note that the higher-quality studies showed a correlation between cellphone use and brain tumors. The authors also concluded that in the higher-quality studies, long-term use of mobile phones was linked to an increase in the risk of brain tumors. Long-term use was defined as greater than 10 years, or more than 1,640 hours.

Another 2017 analysis, published in the International Journal of Occupational Medicine and Environmental Health, reached a similar conclusion.

It’s difficult to make judgments based on this data. There does appear to be some evidence that more than 10 years of cellphone use may increase the risk of brain tumors.

Yet the potential for recall bias means the data aren’t irrefutable. Nonetheless, I would recommend being conscious of the amount of time you spend with a cellphone or a cordless phone against your head. Luckily, we can now communicate through a Bluetooth device, reducing whatever risk there may be.

JUMBLE

Attack ad tactic

A U T O R A C E

he “needs time to find himself” and breaks things off, it usually means he’s no longer interested or ready for the kind of relationship you’re looking for.

This man is newly divorced and parenting solo, so he has as much on his plate as he can handle right now. That he’s seeing a therapist is a wise move, so give him credit for that.

But the kind of problems he is trying to work through are not ones you can “help” him with. At a later date things may work out, but clearly not now. A friendship may be possible, but only if you are strong enough to disengage emotionally until he is ready, which could take a very long time.

Dear Abby: I have noticed a trend at children’s birthday parties. The children aren’t opening their presents at the party. Instead, the parents collect the gifts and take them home for the child to open later. To me, this seems rude and inconsiderate to the children who are attending the party. Part of the enjoyment of giving a gift is seeing the recipient’s response.

Please let me know the rule of etiquette in this matter. Am I correct in thinking that presents should be opened at children’s birthday parties in front of their guests? – Gift Etiquette Dear G.E.: No rule of etiquette decrees that gifts “must” be opened at the birthday party.

Because this trend bothers you, ask the parent of the birthday child why she or he has chosen to have the gifts opened afterward, because there may be more than one reason for it.

One that occurs to me might be it’s a way of preventing embarrassment on the part of children who might not be able to afford a gift as expensive as some of the other children’s.

Wisconsin Dear Hopeless Romantic: When a man says

ACROSS

Q A T A R I S

Dear Abby:

DEAR ABBY I was married for more than Jeanne 20 years. My ex Phillips and I divorced five years ago.

During that time I stayed busy focusing on my children and their needs.

About seven months ago I met a nice guy.

We saw each other for about five months, then out of nowhere, he broke things off. I was devastated. He said his reason for the breakup was “he needed time to find himself.” He was recently divorced and has sole custody of his kids. He has been under a great deal of stress and started seeing a therapist a couple of months ago.

I understand why he needs this time, but I also wish he would let me help. He said he wants to remain friends. I avoided contact with him for several weeks, but now I am drawn back to him. My friends keep telling me to forget him, but I can’t get him off my mind. We talk almost daily and have even gotten together again a couple of times. I keep telling myself all the reasons it won’t work.

Should I run away, stay friends only, or hope to work things out? – Hopeless Romantic In

SATURDAY HOROSCOPE

By EUGENIA LAST

Newspaper Enterprise Association TODAY – You’ll have mixed feelings regarding your work and professional goals. Listen to your heart, but be realistic about your dreams. Go to the experts and determine what’s best for you. Too many choices will lead to confusion. Don’t fold under pressure or give in to emotional manipulation.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) – Take on a challenge with gusto and play to win. Utilize your time

wisely, and push to be more productive and get good results. Don’t get angry, get moving.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) – Someone will challenge you at your weakest moment. Don’t go out of your way to accommodate others. Get your own house in order before you venture into someone else’s territory.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) – Share your concerns or plans with someone you live or work with.

The suggestions he or she makes will help you figure out how to move forward without taking on too much physically or financially.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) – Aim to please and avoid complaints. You may crave change, but sticking to familiar surroundings will be in your best interest. Tidy up loose ends before you start something new.

like the choices you are making. Don’t believe everything you hear.

Offer advice, but don’t feel guilty or compelled to take charge. Put your money, energy and time into personal gains.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) – Rely on people who have helped you in the past. Share information that will encourage insight and greater opportunity to tidy up unfinished business. Don’t settle for less than what you want.

Craig Brown, an English critic and satirist, said, “Everyone must know by now that the aim of Scrabble is to gain the moral high ground, the loser being the first player to slam the board shut and upset all the letters over the floor.”

Once, an opponent of mine almost tore his cards in two when his partner removed a penalty double of a vulnerable four-spade contract (which would have cost 1,400) to five clubs.

More often, though, when we discuss bridge losers, we are talking about tricks that we might concede.

Often, our job is to eliminate a loser or two. In this deal, for example, how should South play to make four hearts after West leads the club queen?

Three diamonds was a help-suit game-try, asking North to look at his red suits. Here, North was rightly optimistic. He had two sure tricks, a diamond shortage and four trumps.

When this deal was played in a social game, South won the first trick, drew two rounds of trumps and gave up a diamond trick. But East won and cashed his high heart. The contract could no longer be made.

Declarer started with five losers: one spade, one heart and three diamonds. He had to play to ruff two diamonds in the dummy.

Some variation in this trick sequence is all right, but South should play the ace and another diamond (or duck a diamond). Suppose East wins and shifts to the spade king.

Declarer plays low, takes the next spade, cashes his high hearts and the diamond ace, then ruffs a diamond on the board. East overruffs, but declarer trumps the next spade, ruffs his last diamond and claims.
