Camp Clover introduces children to science as part of the University of Illinois Extension

But as he sat down with his parents to look for a science camp this year, he found Camp Clover, which he said was not only more affordable than the other camps,

but also offered much more to do. Yock brought with him some rocket building and launching experience. The one he built Monday was his third rocket and will be shot off later this week.

“Rocket-building is fun,” he said. “I’ve launched rockets with my dad and uncle before.”

Yock said of the two rockets he launched previously, one launched successfully. He’s

not sure if this one will go or not, but he thinks it probably won’t. Several of the children seemed to doubt their ability to create a rocket that would

MORRIS – Drew Darlington has never built a rocket before.

But that didn’t stop the 10-year-old Morris resident Monday as he folded the parachute that would help bring the rocket safely back to Earth. Darlington joined 39 other children at the University of Illinois Extension office in Morris for Camp Clover, a one-week science camp for children ages 8 to 14.

“I don’t think it will work,” Darlington said as he examined the pieces in front of him.

Trial and error is exactly what the camp is about, according to youth educator John Davis.

“They learn by actually building something themselves,” Davis said. “A lot of them thought they’d pull it out of the box and it would be ready to shoot. They are learning by building. They need to be exact when they do it.”

Camp Clover had 55 children sign up for the camp that could only handle 40. The response this year was overwhelming following a year where the Extension had to cancel camp because there wasn’t enough interest.

City approves money for dog park materials

By MIKE MALLORY mmallory@shawmedia.com MORRIS – If you have a dog, the opportunity to take your four-legged friend to a public recreation area in Morris is coming near.

The city of Morris looks to be next in the nationwide trend of municipalities installing public dog parks, after the City Council approved June 15 an authorization allowing Emily Lamaze to begin work on and to purchase $10,000 of materials and equipment required for the project.

“I’m thinking it will be a great project, especially for folks who live in apartments or don’t have the necessary space for their dogs to run around,” Mayor Richard Kopczick said Monday.

Lamaze, a local Girl Scout and junior at Morris Community High School, originally presented the idea to the city in September 2014. Lamaze wants to design and construct the park as part of her gold award achievement project for the organization.

“It’s a tremendous achievement,” Kopczick said. “To have the ambition to go forward and be a general contractor to get the gold award is a tough hurdle.”

Lamaze said Monday the idea was born when her family adopted a dog from an animal shelter two years ago. The dog loves to run but doesn’t have a lot of yard space to do so.

“I thought there might be some other people in a similar situation,” Lamaze said.

Emily Lamaze, a local Girl Scout and junior at Morris Community High School, is working with the city of Morris to bring a dog park to an open area of Lions Park by early August. at the project as intimidating for her age, she said it is a long process. People she’s talked to about it seem excited, she said.

The location is a city-owned grass lot with minimal trees

on the west end of Lions Park on Michael Drive. Kopczick said Lions Park is separated by the roadway.

The $10,000 will go toward materials such as fencing and

benches, Kopczick said. The ultimate design has plans for a small parking lot, a sidewalk and a spigot for refilling water bowls, to be done by Morris Public Works.

The materials installation would be completed by Lamaze, as her project requires, along with friends, family and other scouts, she said.

Lamaze said she has to meet with the Parks and Annexation Committee again, but is hoping to start work in mid-July and open the park in August. The tentative plan as of now, Kopczick said, is that city will look to knock back a section of the curbed area and put potentially six to eight parking stalls along the property as part of the 2016-17 street maintenance program.

The dog park would be separated by fencing into two smaller parks – one for small dogs, and one for large dogs.

The entry gates will be double-gated to help prevent dogs from escaping as they enter and exit with their owners.

The land had no proposed plans, Kopczick said, until Lamaze’s project came along.

Enterprise zone passes first round of application process

By HEIDI LITCHFIELD hlitchfield@shawmedia.com MORRIS – The Ottawa, LaSalle & Grundy County Enterprise Zone is one step closer to being replaced, with additions that include Channahon, Coal City and Morris, according to Nancy Ammer, CEO of the Grundy Economic Development Council.

The current enterprise zone is set to end in 2016, so local leaders took the necessary steps to replace it last fall.

“We are currently in an enterprise zone [that] is expiring. Instead of having an extension all the previous enterprise zones had to apply,” Ammer said.

The enterprise zone program was created in 1982 to stimulate economic growth and revitalization in depressed areas of the state, according to the website of the Illinois Department of Com-

merce & Economic Opportunity.

The zones guarantee sales tax abatements, and local taxing districts are free to negotiate further tax incentives within the stimulus areas.

With a change in state law, all of Illinois’ 97 enterprise zones must be replaced instead of being renewed or extended.

The state DCEO is only accepting up to 49 new zones in its first round of applications that were submitted in 2014, according to its website, which means almost half of the existing zones won’t be created in the initial round.

The statute keeps the number of enterprise zones at 97, but will award them during a five-year span.

There will be 10 new statutory criteria to qualify for the zones, and all old criteria has been deleted, according to the website.

Grundy County received a

letter June 8 as part of the Ottawa, LaSalle & Grundy County Enterprise Zone, which stated it had made the first round of application review.

The application, along with supporting documents, is being forwarded to the board of review, which will make a final decision by Sept. 20.

Grundy County Administrator Doug Pryor said the local enterprise zone had a strong application that includes a great industrial base from Grundy and LaSalle counties.

“The previous Ottawa/LaSalle County/Grundy County Enterprise Zone [expiring in 2016] was very successful in helping drive jobs and investment to the region, and we are looking forward to the opportunity to continue our successful partnership between the counties and the state through a new enterprise zone,” Pryor said.

Student’s drawing selected for arts festival banner MORRIS HERALD–NEWS MORRIS – A Shabbona Middle School student’s artwork has been selected for the banner that will be painted during the Liberty Arts Festival.

The Morris Downtown Development Partnership congratulates Anna Benson of Shabbona, according to a Anna Benson news release from MDDP. This spring, area schools were asked to invite their students to create a drawing to be considered for a banner used as a canvas during the Liberty Arts Festival.

The Morris Downtown Development Partnership received entries from several schools in Grundy County,

and the arts festival committee reviewed the entries and selected Benson’s design.

“We received more than 100 entries, but we felt that Anna’s drawing was not only well-designed, but promoted both the art and music that the event features,” MDDP Executive Director Julie Applegate said in the release.

Benson learned that her drawing was selected at her graduation ceremony from Shabbona Middle School and was awarded a certificate from the arts festival committee.

All are invited to paint Benson’s banner from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. Friday on the Grundy County Courthouse lawn.

COAL CITY – Many children depend on school for their lunch, but in the summer that needed meal isn’t available.

Help for Hope has partnered with Coal City Public Library District to serve a hot lunch to any child, or their family who needs lunch, each Friday throughout the summer.

“There are hungry people in Grundy County,” said Cathy Milne, director for Help for Hope. “It was weighing heavy on our hearts for a long time. What would these kids do for lunch in the summer?”

Milne said the Coal City library had the space in the Irving Street Annex behind the main library branch, so it decided that would serve as a Friday cafeteria for those in the area who need a hot meal.

Leah Bill, assistant director at the library, said the

have a set menu, but Milne said organizers are trying to stay nutritionally based, and have served soup and grilled cheese, as well as sloppy joes in previous weeks.

In addition to families being able to have a hot meal, children who are part of the backpack program also will receive a bag of food to take home.

The backpack program sends a bag of food home each Friday during the school year to help families eat over the weekend.

Milne said there is no requirements other than wanting a hot lunch. They don’t require an ID or proof of income to those who need something to eat.

If anyone or their organization is interested in helping prepare food, donating food for lunch or preparing the take home bag, contact Cathy Milne at Help for Hope, 1630 S. Broadway St., Coal City, or call 815-370-7817.

Davis said building confidence also is an important part of Camp Clover, as it is with all 4-H projects.

The confidence and leadership learning skills are evident at camp by the leaders teaching the program, Davis said.

“It’s cool to bring someone back like Tristan DeGrush who has been through 4-H and now wants to come back and teach,” Davis said of one of this year’s instructors.

Other children such as Josh Rossi, 14, of Morris, have been to camp before, and came back excited to do it again.

“It’s a fun experience,” Rossi said. “It’s nice to meet new people and relearn things I’ve done before.”

In addition to rocket building and launching, children also will study drones, wind energy and GPS. Rossi said he has used his GPS skills he learned at a previous camp several times since then.

Audrey Reitenbach, 10, of Oswego, said she was excited to go to camp. After attending a 4-H event in the past with her cousin, she was excited to be able to join in.

Davis said the camp is designed to bring fun and learning together and to give students a quick look at science over the summer. Camp will be held all week at the Grundy County University of Illinois Extension office and the Grundy County Fairgrounds.

Jazz musician Gunther Schuller dies at 89

By CHARLES J. GANS The Associated Press NEW YORK – Gunther Schuller, a horn player, educator and Pulitzer Prize-winning composer who was the leading proponent of the Third Stream movement fusing jazz and classical music, died Sunday at age 89.

His son, Ed Schuller, said his father died Sunday morning at a hospital in Boston.

He said his father had several medical conditions.

“He was a great musician.

I loved him and we will miss him,” Schuller, a bassist, said.

“He had a great life, he lived his dream.”

As a composer, Schuller wrote more than 200 compositions, including solo and orchestral works, chamber music, opera and jazz. His orchestral work, “Of Reminiscences and Reflections,” dedicated to his wife Marjorie Black, won the 1994 Pulitzer Prize for Music.

Schuller, who was born Nov. 22, 1925, in New York, came from a family of classical musicians. His grandfather was a conductor in Germany and his father was a violinist with the New York Philharmonic.

Schuller developed into a virtuoso on French horn. As a teenager, he began playing with the American Ballet The-

Schuller discovered a whole new musical world when he heard Duke Ellington on the radio one night while doing his high school homework.

“I said to my father, ‘You know, Pop, I heard some music – Duke Ellington – last night and that music is as great as

Beethoven’s and Mozart’s,’ ” Schuller said in a 2009 NPR interview. “And he almost had a heart attack because that was a heretical thing to say.”

Schuller’s newfound passion led him to frequent New York jazz clubs, where he became involved in the burgeoning bebop scene in the late 1940s. Although French horn was rarely used in jazz ensembles, Schuller began his jazz career as part of trum-

peter Miles Davis’ group that recorded the seminal 1949-50 “Birth of the Cool” sessions, which fused jazz and classical techniques. He would go on to perform and record with such jazz greats as J.J. Johnson, Eric Dolphy, Dizzy Gillespie, Ornette Coleman and Charles Mingus.

In the mid-1950s, he teamed up with the classically trained jazz pianist John Lewis, musical director of the Modern Jazz Quartet, to form the Modern Jazz Society in an effort to bring jazz and classical music together. Schuller felt musicians from both genres could learn from each other.

During a 1957 lecture at Brandeis University, Schuller coined the term “Third Stream” to describe his vision of what would result if the two main streams of music in the U.S. got married and begat a child.

Schuller and Lewis introduced their Third Stream compositions on two Columbia albums, “Music for Brass” and “Modern Jazz Concert” in 1957-58.

Schuller and Lewis also founded the Lenox School of Jazz in western Massachusetts, which brought over Coleman from the West Coast for its summer program in 1959 shortly before the free jazz pioneer made his history-making New York debut.

Former East Germany’s trade chief dies at 82 The ASSOCIATED PRESS BERLIN – Alexander Schalck-Golodkowski, the long-serving head of East Germany’s foreign trade operations who helped keep the communist country afloat by procuring Western cash through often-murky deals, has died. He was 82.

Schalck-Golodkowski’s publisher Verlag Edition Ost said Monday that he died Sunday in a Munich hospital after a long battle with cancer.

Schalck-Golodkowski was a discreet but influential figure whose office handled the purchase of hightech, luxury and other goods as well as the sale of East German products to pay off the country’s debts.

He boasted of bringing in billions in hard currency for East Germany. After reunification, he was convicted in 1998 of illegally importing technology in contravention of an embargo, but acquitted of carrying out illegal money transfers and wasn’t tried over other allegations of financial wrongdoing.

By JULIANNE BUCK Executive director of the Community Foundation of Grundy County MORRIS – June is always a busy grant-writing month.

The donor-designed endowed funds that we hold run on a fiscal year of July 1 to June 30, so we are busy cutting grant checks to the favorite charities of our fund holders.

Some checks are on auto pay because the donor chose a “designated” fund – a fund set up to benefit a specific charity. Examples of this include the Golimowski Scouting Fund, Immaculate Conception School, and Grand Ridge Cemetery. These checks get cut and mailed automatically each year. One benefit is these organizations know that the check will always come as the fund is endowed; therefore they can plan for it in their budgets.

We also include school scholarship endowments under the category of “designated” if they have an internal scholarship selection committee. These include several funds at Morris Community High School and two

for Minooka Community High School. These grant checks are cut earlier in the spring in time for scholarship awards.

Other designated endowments involved foundation staff meeting with staff of the receiving charities to brainstorm and strategize.

When the Holderman family sold the “Holderman Hill” property a few years ago, the three granddaughters (Betsy, Nancy, and Jamie) made three major gifts to benefit Grundy County.

One was a gift in memory of the Meadors family to the Grundy County Historical Society for the new museum building.

The second is an endowment at the community foundation to establish the “Bowker-Ostrem-Meadors Endowment for Life-Long Learning at Morris Library.”

The third has been set up as the “Holderman-Meadors Endowment for Women’s Health at Morris Hospital” here at the community foundation.

Dr. Bowker was one of their grandfathers, and he was a board president and

strong supporter of the Morris Area Public Library. Stella Ostrem was Dr. Bowker’s longtime nurse – the other half of a great medical team.

Carolyn Meadors Holderman is the girls’ mother who passed away a few years ago, and her name was added to the fund names to honor her and her family. S.J. Holderman was a longtime attorney in Morris and past board president at Morris Hospital & Healthcare Centers.

This year’s Morris library endowment funded the appearance and book signing

by Eric Litwin, author of the “Pete the Cat” series. Mr. Litwin is a No. 1 New York Times best-selling author of four books: “Pete the Cat and His Four Groovy Buttons,” “Pete the Cat Rocking In My School Shoes,” “Pete the Cat I Love My White Shoes” and “Pete the Cat Saves Christmas.”

This year’s Morris Hospital endowment is funding a portion of the new “Young Hearts for Life” cardiac screening program. With this program, Morris Hospital will begin free cardiac screenings for high school students in

Grundy County and the communities served by Morris Hospital.

In addition to endowed designated funds, we also steward endowed donor advised funds.

These funds were established by donors with a large one-time gift who then were able to claim the charitable deduction at tax time, and now have the leisure of granting to their favorite charities each year. Some of the donors who have endowed donor advised funds make their grants early in the fiscal year, others space it out, and some wait until June.

Come July 1, all of these endowments will have a fresh set of grant dollars to grant out throughout the fiscal year.

We also steward some agency endowments where we rarely cut grant checks because the charity is choosing to let the fund grow uninterrupted, so that it will be able to contribute to the charity’s budget in a more impactful way in the future. Similar to your personal IRA, these agency endowments grow over time to make annual distributions in the future. Some

agency endowments held at the community foundation include We Care, Evergreen Cemetery, Morris High School Education Endowment and Saratoga School Education Endowment.

If you have a favorite charity and want to support if forever, even after your lifetime, consider an endowment at the Community Foundation of Grundy County. New funds can be made with a gift of any size and with almost any appreciated asset: cash, securities, real estate, grain and more. Anyone in the community can contribute to an existing endowment.

Your chosen charity receives an annual distribution (forever), you receive the charitable tax deduction, and we do all of the back office work.

If you have questions, please do not hesitate to contact us at 815-941-0852 or julie@cfgrundycounty.com.

You can also visit us at 102 Liberty St., Morris, until Aug. 1. After that, we will be in our new office space at 520 W. Illinois Ave., Morris. Please come see us.

especially honored to have 94-year-old World War II veteran Norbert “Lucky” McLuckie in attendance.

“To not only have a World War II veteran as a constituent in Coal City, Illinois, but to see that honored man participate in a program that I hosted, is truly a privilege,” Anthony said in the

release. “Lucky’s attendance at this instructional course is something I can always cherish from my time in public service. I want to thank him for coming out, and also for showing the rest of the course participants how to properly use a weapon, as he scored a 100 percent on his shooting qualifications exam.”

OPINION Rauner’s ad not as negative as expected Gov. Bruce Rauner’s much-anticipated TV ad isn’t as over-the-top negative as we might have thought it would be.

“Exactly,” was the response from a Rauner official I spoke with after watching the ad and making that above observation about its somewhat muted tone. “There’s plenty of time for that if it’s necessary.”

In case you haven’t seen it, the governor’s ad begins with shots of downtown Chicago then moves to a photo of Illinois House Speaker Michael Madigan.

“Illinois is at a crossroads,” says the female announcer. “Mike Madigan and the politicians he controls refuse to change. They’re saying ‘No’ to spending discipline, ‘No’ to job-creating economic reforms, ‘No’ to term limits.

“All they want is higher taxes. Again.”

At the 19-second mark, Gov. Rauner appears in the ad.

“Change in Springfield isn’t easy,” Rauner says in voiceover as he’s seen on the screen talking with a couple of male workers. “But you didn’t send me here to do what’s easy,” he says as he’s seen talking to a woman standing at a counter near some flowers.

“With your help,” Rauner says to the camera as the phrase “Join Bruce Rauner” appears next to his head, “I’m gonna keep fightin’ to grow our economy and fix our broken state government.”

An aide to the House speaker who saw the ad before I did said he didn’t think it would make much of a difference.

After a buildup in expectations, he said, the ad failed to bite much at all, and he even laughed it off.

But a top Senate Democratic operative expressed sincere relief that the spot wasn’t so harsh that it would’ve

THE FIRST

AMENDMENT

VIEWS Rich Miller destroyed any possibility of reaching an agreement on the budget and the governor’s “Turnaround Agenda” issues, such as workers’ compensation reform, a property tax freeze and tort reform. They’re both probably right. Rauner’s ad does not ask Illinoisans to do anything specific except support him. There are no phone numbers to call, no other actions to take. He could’ve flooded Madigan’s Statehouse switchboard if he’d chosen to do so, but he didn’t.

By being somewhat reasonable and coming in under expectations, the ad will likely avoid any immediate public backlash. By speechifying across the state for months instead of holing up in Springfield, the governor has opened himself up to potential criticism that he ought to dump the rhetoric and get to work on solving actual problems.

He’ll still have to deal with an angry and dismissive Madigan, however. That’s not going to be any easier now.

Rauner has all but claimed that Madigan and Senate President John Cullerton are corrupt, Madigan has compared Rauner to the imprisoned Rod Blagojevich, Rauner’s staff has pointedly insulted the House Democrats for engaging in a “sexist smear” of a Rauner appointee, etc., etc., etc.

So, it’s little wonder that former Gov. Jim Edgar is worried that this thing could easily go off the rails – if it hasn’t already.

SBA loans for Fairdale good sign We are pleased to see the federal Small Business Administration stepping up to offer low-interest loans to people, businesses and nonprofits affected by the April 9 tornado in Northern Illinois.

It is a turnaround from the early predictions that rebuilding Fairdale would depend almost exclusively on local fundraising.

That didn’t seem right to us, and we’re glad the federal government, in response to a request from Illinois Gov. Bruce Rauner, agreed.

Similar federal disaster assistance helped survivors of the deadly 2013 tornado that struck Washington in central Illinois.

After that EF4 tornado, which killed three people and damaged more than 1,000 homes, the Federal Emergency Management Agency’s Individual Assistance Program approved more

than $2.5 million in grants for home repairs, rental assistance and to replace lost personal items. And the U.S. Small Business Administration reported that more than $18.7 million in low-interest disaster loans had been approved to help the rebuilding process.

The SBA loans will help to repair or replace property that was uninsured or underinsured.

Businesses and nonprofits can borrow up to $2 million to cover damage to equipment, inventory, buildings and other assets. People can borrow up to $200,000 for property repairs, and renters and homeowners can borrow up to $40,000 to replace personal property.

The interest rates will be marginal – as low as 1.813 percent for people, 4 percent for businesses and 2.625 percent for nonprofits – and the

loans can have terms of up to 30 years.

The need for the funds is real. A survey conducted by state and federal officials after the disaster found a total of 31 homes and seven businesses suffered major damage, and many of those losses were uninsured.

In Fairdale alone, the estimated property damage was $7.9 million, an estimated $2.76 million of which were uninsured losses.

Although these loans will help some to rebuild, local people still will be counted upon to solve local issues, including how Fairdale can be rebuilt.

We are pleased to see the federal government making assistance available. While the losses caused by the April 9 tornado were not as great as other disasters, for those affected, the tragedy is no less real.

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

SUMMER BOYS BASKETBALL

Morris Shootout to tip off for 30th year

By ROB OESTERLE roesterle@shawmedia.com MORRIS – Back in 1986, it seemed like a radical idea.

High school basketball?

During the summer? In Morris?

Strange as it seemed at the time, the Morris Boys Shootout, once one of the very few summer basketball showcases in the state, was a runaway hit. This year it celebrates its 30th anniversary when games tip off at 9 a.m.

Wednesday.

The format will be as it has been in the recent past, with the 32 teams divided into eight four-team pools, playing in the Morris Community High School main gym and the District 101 Rec Center fieldhouse. Wednesday will feature round-robin pool play. On Thursday, the top two teams from each pool will play in the championship Gold bracket, with the third and fourth teams in each pool playing in the consolation Maroon bracket. Each team is guaranteed to play at least five games over the two days, with those playing in the championships of each bracket getting seven games each.

“We thought about changing things a little for the anniversary,” Blumberg said. “We

Jurasits will play for the Redskins in the 30th annual Morris Shootout starting Wednesday. were going to name the pools after some of the guys [who] started the tournament, or some of the past great players [who] played here, but we decided that from now on, we are going to put the past champions on the backs of the T-shirts every five years. This is the first year we are going to do that.

“As far as the format, we

weren’t going to change anything about that. Teams like the way we run it, and we aren’t going to fix something that’s not broken.”

The teams competing in this year’s tournament are: Pool A: Burlington Central, Minooka, Normal Community (defending champion) and Oak Forest; Pool B: Bloomington Central Catholic, Bolingbrook,

Plainfield North and Sycamore; Pool C: Galesburg, Joliet West, Morris and Stevenson; Pool D: Bradley-Bourbonnais, Loyola, Ottawa and Plainfield Central; Pool E: Coal City, Joliet Central, Rockford Auburn and Springfield; Pool F: Alton, Belleville West, Lake Zurich and Marion; Pool G: Deerfield, East Aurora, Granite City and Neuqua Valley; Pool H: Dixon,

Edwardsville, Kankakee and Oswego.

“We have a good field, and we take pride in that” Blumberg said. “O’Fallon dropped out last week with conflicts with football and baseball, but [coach] Jeff Corcoran of Joliet Central was good enough to say he would bring his team to take that spot, and we appreciate that.

“We like to keep the field about a third local, a third perennial powers and a third kind of rotating so that we don’t have the same teams all the time or have teams playing against teams that they face in the regular season. A tournament like this is a good chance to see different playing styles and different players than you are used to seeing. When you look at the state finals from last year in Class 4A, Stevenson, Normal Community and Bolingbrook were 1-2-3, and they were all at our shootout last summer.”

As far as the Redskins go, they will sport a new look.

About 90 percent of the scoring from last year’s team has graduated, mostly with guards Austin Patterson, Evan Bjelland and Jake Walker.

The returning players with the most experience are post

STAFF REPORTS MORRIS – Eddie Hoffman could see leader Scott Koerner after he moved into second place with 20 laps remaining in Friday night’s late-model feature at Grundy County Speedway.

But he couldnt see Koerner all that well.

Hoffman eventually caught up with Koerner with 10 laps remaining. It took him four more, and several pokes and prods from the bottom, but Hoffman eventually passed the former leader.

Koerner, who previously grabbed the lead from frontrow mate Dean Patterson at the drop of the green, wasn’t going to surrender without a fight.

His lead over Hoffman at one point was nearly a full straightaway. But even after Hoffman pulled up to his back bumper, Koerner didn’t yield.

On Lap 21, they had fierce contact going into Turn 3, but

Koerner shut the door coming out.

On Lap 24, Hoffman got all the way underneath Koerner, and won the drag race down the front straightaway to take the lead in Turn 1.

It was Hoffman’s fourth win of the season in a new car.

Koerner was able to drop in behind Hoffman and claim second place ahead of Brandon Clubb. Fourth went to Larry Schuler over Dave Gentile Jr. and Brett Sontag.

The 50-lap Mid-American special saw a wild turn of events on Lap 39 when leader Tom Knippenberg’s car shut down heading into Turn 1.

Right behind him, Ken Benson had to slam on the brakes to avoid running him over.

As both cars cruised out of the turn, Kevin Murphy went around them on the outside and led the rest of the way to claim the win.

There was no yellow because Knippenberg pulled safely into the infield, while

Benson reaccelerated. A lap later, Benson’s car began to malfunction as well and he pulled into the pits.

For defending track champion Knippenberg, it was another in a series of unfortunate incidents that have kept him out of the winner’s circle in 2015.

Behind Murphy, Kevin Gentile made a late run to claim second. Jeremy Bloomberg, Chuck Yuris, John Ventrello and Luke Baldwin completed the top six.

Jake Bradley passed Spencer Leake with midway through the street-stock feature and ran away for the win. A tightly bunched pack well behind him was paced

by Cheryl Hryn, who outran Christy Penrod, Rita Fields, Bill Serviss and Zach Sontag.

Chris Mihalski won his heat and led every lap of the 4-cylinder feature. Second went to Spencer Leake, ahead of Dan Schmeissing and Alex Gay.

Morris to figure out new offense • BASKETBALL

Continued from page 14 players Jackson Shannon and Jake Jurasits, so the style of play will differ from the past few seasons.

“We are going to have to pound the ball inside more this year,” Blumberg said.

“To do that, we are going to need guards who can handle pressure and find the passing lanes to those guys. Jordan Miracle and Matt Walker are returning from last year’s

team, and Jake Webb is back after not playing his junior year. Ben Larson is a junior who has been impressive taking the ball to the hole and rebounding and another junior, Matt Shaw, can give us some scoring.

“We have 15 guys on our roster, and we plan on playing everyone during the shootout. We want to get a look at different combinations of players as well as try out different offenses and defenses. We didn’t do ourselves any favors with the

pool that we are in, but all of those teams [Galesburg, Joliet West and Stevenson] offer challenges for us. Galesburg is very physical, Joliet West has quickness and athleticism and Stevenson is the defending Class 4A champion that still has two Division I recruits playing for them. In the summer, we don’t worry about the win-loss results. We want to use it to find out what we need to work on, and the teams in our pool will defitniely let us know what those things are.”

The Bears’ David Fales is expected to battle for the No. 3 quarterback job in training camp.

Fales ready to fight for job

By JAKE BARTELSON jbartelson@shawmedia.com LAKE FOREST – Despite learning two offensive systems in two NFL seasons, and seeing the general manager and coach that drafted him jettisoned, 2014 sixthround draft pick David Fales isn’t fazed by his newest challenge: fighting for his roster spot.

Fales didn’t see any regular-season action at quarter-

back as a rookie, but he said the game is slowing down, and he can see protections and coverages much easier.

To Fales, it’s a night-and-day difference from last year, in part because of quarterbacks coach Dowell Loggains and offensive coordinator Adam Gase.

“I thought I was a smart player in college, but it’s different when you get thrown

Fales also competing with Carden for third-string QB • FALES

Continued from page 15 into the league with all these guys,” Fales said after a minicamp practice last week. “It’s a lot faster, there’s a lot more going on. It’s 24/7 football, that is huge, and with that everything falls [into place].”

In spite of Fales’ progress, it’s no secret Halas Hall has a relatively crowded quarterback room with Jay Cutler

and Jimmy Clausen as the prospective starter-backup duo, but with recently cut quarterback Pat Devlin gone, it’s down to undrafted free agent Shane Carden and Fales – for now – competing for the presumptive third quarterback spot.

Carden (6-foot-2, 218 pounds) was brought aboard shortly after this year’s draft, after throwing for 4,736 yards with a 63.5 completion percentage during his senior sea-

son at East Carolina.

“Regardless of who’s here, I’m still going to compete with everybody,” Fales said.

Fales credits the vast experience of his new coaching staff and his teammates, saying it’s been a great transition, and the team is learning a lot.

“They’re really good at what they do, obviously,” Fales said of his coaches.

“They put the time in and make it easy on us to play

fast and not even think about it.”

The experience of Cutler and Clausen has also made the past two years easier for Fales, and second-year receiver John Chiles sees Fales looking in Cutler’s direction often.

“I can tell he talks to him, even when Jay is doing his reads, I just see him following him every step learning the offense,” Chiles said.

The 6-foot-1, 228-pound

Fales is placing an emphasis on footwork and timing in the new system during practice to make improvements despite getting inconsistent reps.

He isn’t making excuses.

“You have to find the time and make it work,” Fales said.

With training camp in Bourbonnais in just north of a month, Fales’ short-term goals include staying consistent and avoiding turnovers.

“If I do that, I’m doing something right,” Fales said.

PUZZLES SUDOKU

BRIDGE by Phillip Alder

The target is visible, so aim right at it

CELEBRITY CIPHER

Viktor Frankl, an Austrian neurologist and psychiatrist who was the founder of logotherapy and existential analysis, wrote: “Don’t aim at success – the more you aim at it and make it a target, the more you are going to miss it. For success, like happiness, cannot be pursued; it must ensue.”

That is bad advice for bridge players. We must aim at success – the number of tricks we need to make or break a contract. That is our target.

In this deal, West is defending against four spades. He leads the diamond king. South takes that trick and cashes two of dummy’s heart winners to shed his diamond loser.

Then declarer runs the spade eight.

How should West defend?

After South opened with a weak two-bid, promising some 6-10 highcard points and a decent six-card suit, North used the two-no-trump artificial inquiry. Since South had a maximum, he rebid three diamonds to show his “feature” (typically the ace or king) in that suit. West doubled to assure a diamond lead should North become the declarer.

West can see only two certain defensive tricks: his aces. If South had started with three diamonds, he would have taken another pitch on one of dummy’s hearts.

So, declarer is marked with 6-1-2-4 distribution. And the bidding has made it clear that East, not South, holds the club king.

West should win the first trump trick and shift to his club three, low showing interest in the suit. East wins with his king and returns his club six.

West takes that trick, then gives his partner a club ruff to defeat the contract. Happiness!

Daughter seeks explanation for mother’s relationship Dear Abby: My mom turned 60 last month, and I hosted a party at her house for friends and family. As things were winding down, I took a break from cleaning up to look over the birthday cards from well-wishers that were displayed on a living room table. Among them was a big, gorgeous card from “Cassie,” a woman around my mother’s age, who I always thought was nothing more than an acquaintance.

As I read the message she had written inside, my jaw dropped. While not pornographic, her message made clear that she and Mom have an intimate physical relationship that has been going on for a while.

DEAR ABBY Jeanne Phillips I have not discussed the card with Mom, but I suspect she knows I saw it. Lately, I have canceled our weekly lunches together. I don’t have anything against gays; I believe they are entitled to a love life just like the rest of us.

But in this case, I can’t help but feel betrayed. Mom was married for 32 years, bore three children and seemed happy. Was this all a lie?

My biggest concern is, if this relationship becomes permanent, how do I explain it to my children – or worse,

my brothers, whose views are conservative and some might say bigoted. I can’t help but wonder if Mom left the card out so she could open a can of worms in my lap. How should I approach this? Please help. –

Dumbfounded Daughter Dear Daughter: Some people

are bisexual, which means they can be attracted to people of both genders. Your mother may have had a very happy marriage, and then she met Cassie. If she no longer is with your father, it is not a betrayal.

Call your mother and arrange to get together. Tell her you saw the card. She may not have told you about her relationship with Cassie because she was afraid you would react as you have. If

they become a couple and your children ask questions (keep in mind, they may not ask), tell them the truth. As to making any announcements to your bigoted brothers, leave that up to your mother and resist the urge to be the town crier.

Dear Abby: I’m only 18. I know I have a lot to learn in life, but I need help. I’m madly in love with a guy who is “bipolar” about our relationship.

One day he loves me and the next he doesn’t.

Today he said he needed some time alone because we’ve been together 24/7. I got all mad and started to go crazy.

He’s not breaking up with me.

I know he needs space, but I can’t bring myself to let him have it. I don’t want to lose

him. Please help me figure out a way to stay with him. – Got A

Good One In Missouri Dear Got A Good One: If you

want to keep your boyfriend, let him have his freedom. I know it sounds contradictory, but the harder you try to hang onto him, the more he will want to get away.

And by the way, while he’s enjoying his “space,” you should do exactly the same thing he is doing. If you isolate yourself, you only will become depressed, insecure and clingy, none of which are attractive traits.
