Keeping readers informed within our time constraints You’ll notice a few election stories in this week’s paper, including one I wrote last Wednesday on the Grundy County Board results, where one race still is separated by just three votes.

At this point, that news is pretty old.

But it’s also important.

So we decided to print it in today’s edition.

Each week, we face some of that challenge when bringing you the Thursday paper. In last week’s paper, you probably noticed we had partial election results.

I received a few calls about it. Some left messages. Some did not.

The reason is that the Thursday edition you receive in the mail prints on Tuesday night. When it printed, some of the races, such as state’s attorney, seemed to have a clear result, while many, such as the County Board races, weren’t complete.

Once the paper prints Tuesday night, it gets into the mail and is sent to you and arrives with your Thursday mail.

This week, you’ll find stories and photos all over the paper from Saturday’s Jon Styf game.

We know many of our print readers received the game story in Sunday’s Because of that, nothing that happens Herald-News but also know that the best really late on Tuesday or on Wednesday spot to have more space to run as many will be in your print edition. photos and stories about that game and It happened the week before with the previewing this Saturday’s game against Cubs winning the World Series and we Peoria is in the Thursday edition. got some callers asking about that part, To us, that’s what makes sense to you. too.

2 Grundy candidates have to wait out results

By JON STYF

jstyf@shawmedia.com Jim Ryan, D-Morris, and Brian Severson, R-Dwight, waited out the Grundy County election results the same as all of the other candidates on election night.

But, unlike the other area candidates, they will have to wait it out for two more weeks.

After the votes were counted Nov. 8, Ryan and Severson were separated by just three votes for the third spot in the Grundy County Board District 3 race. Coal City Republican Harold Vota (3,859) and Coal City Democrat Ann Gill (3,678) were the leading vote-getters while Ryan (3,307) and Severson (3,304) were next.

“It was a lot of ups and downs,”

Ryan said. “It’s a little nerve-wracking. I’m hoping it still swings my way.”

After the election, there were about 70 to 75 vote-by-mail ballots still out for that district, according to the Grundy Jim Ryan County Clerk’s Office, though not all of them were necessarily returned. Those needed to be postmarked by Nov. 8 and will be collected by Nov. 22 and then counted by two judges at 10 a.m. Brian Nov. 23 before those re- Severson sults are certified.

“I figured it was going to be an interesting race,” said Ryan, who ran in 2014 and did not earn a spot. “Everybody

got out to vote and Mr. Severson surprised a lot of people.

“All I can say about the election is wow.

The Republicans really got out to vote.”

In District 2, Republican Eric Rasmusson of Morris was the top vote-getter with 3,600, followed by Republican Debra Jo Kinsella of Minooka with 3,552. Democrat Lana Phillips of Morris finished with 3,085 votes and took the final spot ahead of Mireya Martin, a Republican from Minooka, who had 2,928.

In District 1, Republicans John Roth, Don Hansen and Vicki Geiger, all of Morris, were the top three vote-getters with all 13 precincts reporting. Roth led with 4,678 votes, with Geiger collecting 4,567 and Hansen 4,517.

HONORING THOSE WHO SERVED Morris marks Veterans Day with parade, ceremony on courthouse lawn

By ALLISON SELK

Shaw Media correspondent MORRIS – Young and old alike lined Liberty Street and filled the courthouse lawn in downtown Morris on Friday to thank the men and women who bravely served our country from past to present.

“We came today out of general respect for our veterans,” Marcy Schroeder of Morris said. “We all owe everything to them for our freedoms. I’m an empathetic person and I had grandpas, uncles and cousins in the service, and I’m thankful they all came home alive.”

At 10:30 a.m. at Chapin Park, the Morris Color Guard led Boy and Girl Scout troops, school bands, military vehicles, Morris police and fire, Daughters of the American Revolution and American Legion riders down Liberty Street while spectators cheered.

At 11 a.m., hundreds gathered around the steps of the courthouse for the annual Veterans Day service, sponsored by the Morris American Legion Post 294.

Post 294 Cmdr. Ken Buck opened with the invocation.

“We pray for those who have served our nation, and laid down their lives to protect and defend our freedom,” he said. “We pray for those who have fought and whose spirits and bodies are scarred by war, whose nights are haunted by memories too painful for

Al’s Restaurant to host Thanksgiving dinner Morris business taking reservations for meal

By ROB OESTERLE

roesterle@shawmedia.com MORRIS – For the 14th year in a row, Al’s Family Restaurant in Morris will host a free Thanksgiving dinner for those that are alone during the holiday season.

It started as a project by I Care International, by local optometrist Dr. Phillip Ortiz, and has continued to grow.

This year, there will be two seatings at Al’s, owned by Al Lopez and located at 306 Liberty St. in Morris. The first is at noon and the second is at 1:30. Ortiz said that the restaurant fills up quickly, so those that want to partake in the meal are encouraged to call 815-9420921 for reservations.

“It’s become a pretty popular thing over the years,” Ortiz said. “Both seatings are usually full, so if people want to get a meal, they should call for a reservation. Al’s family pretty much takes care of everything else as far as serving, and the fire department delivers about 30 to 40 meals to Elliot Manor

as well.

“Overall, I would say we probably serve close to 200 meals that day.”

The dinner is a full Thanksgiving meal with all the trimmings, including stuffing, mashed potatoes and other side dishes.

“A lot of people like to bring in desserts and stuff like that, too,” Ortiz said.

“There is never a shortage of food.”

Ortiz is dedicating this year’s dinner to his late wife, Gay, who was involved in the founding of the dinner but passed away 10 years ago. He also mentioned that the late Charles “Chuck” Greenway, who died last Friday, also was involved putting on the dinner, along with Gary Rockis and Jim Baum.

“We started it out for people that were by themselves on Thanksgiving,” Ortiz said. “We didn’t think anyone should be alone on the holiday.

Mobile meth lab explodes in Morris laundromat

By BRIAN STANLEY

bstanley@shawmedia.com MORRIS – A mobile meth lab exploded Tuesday morning inside a Morris laundromat, and two suspects have been charged.

The incident occurred about 7:50 a.m. at the Wash ’N Dry at 531 Bedford Road. There were no injuries reported.

Morris Police Chief John Severson said surveillance video shows people coming into the business with items that could be used to “cook” methamphetamine. The laundromat is open around the clock, but does not always have staff on the premises.

“It appears they came into the business to have a controlled environment, but when they started cooking, things went bad and it exploded,” Severson said. “They dumped it outside and fled.”

At 11:30 a.m., officers located two people matching the description of the subjects in the video walking near Bedford Road and Black Street in Morris.

Jonathan Walters, 39, of Minooka, and Nicole Gonzalez, 41, of Morris, were questioned and then arrested on charges of possession of methamphetamine materials.

Emergency responders set up a parameter around Wash ’N Dry Laundromat on Tuesday after responding to a bomb threat in Morris.

Eric Ginnard – eginnard@shawmedia.com

They were booked into the Grundy County Jail.

Severson said Tuesday night that additional charges were pending.

Firefighters did not find any fire at the scene of the explosion, but they did find what appeared to be a damaged lunchbox just outside the business.

Before surveillance video was located, police were unsure of the contents of the lunchbox.

Police canvassed the area for evidence and potential witnesses, Severson said. The Kane County Bomb

Squad was called while police cordoned off the area and diverted traffic.

After the device was determined not to be an explosive, agents of the Joliet Metropolitan Area Narcotics Squad were called out to clean up the debris.

“There’s no evidence [operators of] the business were involved. [The suspects] just picked their location,” Severson noted.

The laundromat and an adjacent fast-food restaurant were allowed to reopen after police cleared the scene about 11:30 a.m., Severson said.

Police investigating reported abduction, assault in Dwight MORRIS HERALD-NEWS lllinois State Police District 5 is investigating a reported abduction and sexual assault that occurred at 2 a.m. Tuesday in Dwight.

The reported vehicle with a male suspect and a female victim was located and stopped on northbound Interstate 55 near Harlem Avenue.

Illinois State Police is working with the Will County State’s Attorney office for prosecutorial review.

The suspect has been released and charged with only traffic offenses at this time.

Continued from page 3 the light of day. We pray for those who serve us now, especially for those in harm’s way.

“Shield them from danger and bring them home. Turn the hearts and minds of our leaders and enemies to the work of justice and the harvest of peace, may the peace you left us, the peace you gave us, be the peace that sustains us, the peace that saves us; Amen.”

The program continued with selections by Shabbona Middle School, Saratoga Elementary and Morris Community High School bands.

Remarks were given from Wendell Johnson, senior vice commander of Disabled American Veterans Chapter 86; Alan Love, Marine Corps League-Grundy County Detachment; and Michael Ebert, post commander of John Martin Steele VFW Post 6049.

“I was inducted into becoming a soldier, leaving a wife and baby daughter behind,” Johnson said. “We were the Vietnam Class of 1967 and became brothers forever while 58,315 other service members’ lives were sacrificed in Vietnam, and they would never experience life and the joy as a husband, father or grandfather.”

Love stood, with full uniform and white gloves, to thank the veterans recent and past for their daily sacrifice while they served.

“This is a time to reflect and thank those individuals to preserve our freedom and way of life,” he said. “Our forefathers fought for the same reasons we fight today – to defend our Constitution, freedom and way of life. Our veterans truly all gave some, and some gave all.”

Love went on to talk about the serious nature of post-traumatic stress disorder and the daily rate of suicide by veterans, which has been posted at 20 veterans a day by the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs in 2014. He said 65 percent were age 50 or older.

“We need to be ever vigilant in prayer in protecting our communities, families and nation,” Love said. “We are to be strong in the Lord and His might, put on the whole armor of God, that you might be able to stand against the schemes of the Devil.”

After remarks, as tradition, wreaths were laid on memorial sites around the courthouse lawn by representatives of the DAR, American Legion Auxiliary and Gold Star Mothers and Fathers in remembrance of the battles fought to protect our freedoms in the U.S. Buck closed with a benediction and a moment of silence for lost comrades.

Charles “Chuck” T. Greenway’s son cars. He just kept bringing different makes of cars in. We got Olds in 1968, Chrysler in 1975, Dodge in 1978, Ford in the early 1980s and GMC in 1989.

We became kind of a one-stop shop for people.”

In over 49 years of operating Greenway Motors, Greenway has helped thousands of people with their automotive needs. Many young people

started their working lives washing cars at Greenway.

“One thing he was proud of was that a lot of kids around here got their first job at our place washing cars, then they would come back and buy their first car from us,” Tom Greenway said. “He liked being part of the fabric of a small town. He always thought you should be fair with people and they would come back.

“He wasn’t out to make the last dollar out of a car. He just wanted to make a sale. He must have been doing something right to stay in business all those years.”

Born in 1932 in Chicago, Chuck was the son of the late Charles S. and Freda (Grapes) Greenway.

Greenway graduated from Fenger High School in Chicago. He subsequently graduated from Bowling Green State University in Ohio, where he was president of Theta Chi Fraternity. He served in the U.S. Army in 1955 and served in Intelligence at Fort Meade, Maryland, where he met his wife of 57 years, Bettie.

Upon leaving the military, Chuck

started selling cars at Western Avenue, where he became the leading salesman. Eventually, he was recruited by General Motors, where he became district manager for Pontiac Motor Division.

He was past president of Illinois New Car/Truck Dealer Association, past board member (15 years) of Lockport School Board, a member of the Lions Club, Morris Country Club and First United Methodist Church.

He was a former member of the Joliet Junior College Board. Chuck was an avid boater and enjoyed watching and purchasing in the financial markets, and his true love was being a car dealer.

Survived by his wife, Bettie; children, Tom (Teresa) Greenway of Morris, Debra (Tom) Packley of Morris and Patrick (Christie) Greenway of Lockport; grandchildren, Jacob Packley, Deana (fiancé Rafael) Packley and David, Alex, Ryan and Ian Greenway; and one brother, Gerald (Helga Legler) Greenway of Morris.

Chuck was preceded in death by his parents, Charles and Freda Greenway.

MORRIS – For 49 years, Greenway Motors has been a staple of the Morris business community, and you can’t drive very far in town without seeing a car bearing a Greenway sticker.

On Friday, the owner and founder of the company, Charles “Chuck” T. Greenway, died.

Greenway came to Morris in September 1967, buying Benson Pontiac and founding Greenway Motors, which he operated for 49 years. He has represented Pontiac, Oldsmobile, GMC Trucks, Ford, Mercury, Chrysler, Plymouth, Dodge, Ram, Jeep, Eagle, AMC and International Harvester.

“Dad really liked it in Morris,” said his son, Tom. “He must have. It will be our 50th year here next year.

He came from the Depression era and had to start small. Back then, Morris was relatively small and he liked having his business here.

“What he really loved was interacting with people and selling

“One thing he was proud of was that a lot of kids around here got their first job at our place washing cars, then they would come back and buy their first car from us. He liked being part of the fabric of a small town. He always thought you should be fair with people and they would come back.”

The true account of the Christmas Tree Ship, considered “the most loved story of the Great Lakes” over the past century, has inspired paintings, poems, six different Christmas Tree Ship songs, television programs, a musical titled “The Christmas Schooner,” and a “new” Christmas Tree Ship sailed by the Great Lakes Coast Guard each holiday as a living memorial. “It is a story which exemplifies the best of humanity,” said Pennington, author of two books on the subject. “At its heart we find courage, generosity, heroism, and the importance of family. The moment I first heard about the famed vessel, I understood why it had endeared itself to so many people and was still being shared a hundred years later.” Pennington’s presentation includes original photographs and focuses on little-known facts—clues washed ashore over the decades following the ship’s mysterious disappearance, ghost ship sightings, and omens believed to have fixed the fate of the vessel before it set sail on Nov. 22, 1912. Artifacts raised from the sunken ship will be on display, along with underwater photos of the ship in its current state at the bottom of Lake Michigan.

Pleasant View will be hosting Rochelle Pennington on November 28th for her magical presentation of “The Christmas Tree Ship”. Refreshments are to follow and tours are always welcome. Seating is limited.

By Denise Freese Pre-diabetes is the stage before type 2 diabetes, where your blood sugar level is higher than normal, but not high enough to be considered diabetes. Your fasting glucose level will test between 100-125 if you have pre-diabetes; this warning sign indicates that without intervention you could develop diabetes in the next 5-10 years, depending on your lifestyle. Over time, diabetes can lead to heart disease, neuropathy, blindness, and in women, complications with pregnancy.

Dr. Nuzhat Chalisa is an Endocrinologist with the Channahon Healthcare Center of Morris Hospital in Channahon, IL, who treats patients with diabetes and metabolism disorders.

“Approximately 86 million people in the U.S., that’s 1 in 3 adults, have pre-diabetes,” said Dr. Chalisa. “And approximately 90% of those people don’t know they have it.”

It’s very important to get checked for prediabetes. “Patients at a high risk of developing

pre-diabetes usually have a family history of diabetes,” said Dr. Chalisa. “Other risk factors include obesity, hypertension, and a history of gestational diabetes. A simple screening test to check your fasting glucose level is all that’s needed to determine whether you have prediabetes.”

If you test positive, Dr. Chalisa sees it as an opportunity to improve your health. “Progression from pre-diabetes to diabetes isn’t inevitable,” she explained. “Healthy lifestyle choices can help prevent both pre-diabetes and the progression to diabetes.”

Healthy lifestyle changes include performing daily physical activity and maintaining a healthy weight, both of which can bring your blood glucose level back to normal. “Eat balanced meals with small portions, and cut back on added sugars and soda,” said Dr. Chalisa. “Exercise for 30-60 minutes every day, and try to get to, and maintain, a healthy weight. Losing just 10% of your body weight significantly decreases your risk of developing pre-diabetes and diabetes.”

Cubs fan, family pop open beer from 1984

By DICK GOSS

dgoss@shawmedia.com His story became such a huge hit, thanks to social media, that even President Barack Obama helped create the final chapter.

Tom Johnson of Wilmington, a Cubs fan who turned 74 last Saturday, normally is not much of a beer drinker. However, he bought a sixpack of Coors in the fall of 1984, when the Cubs were in position to beat the San Diego Padres and reach the World Series.

It didn’t happen.

“The last can got stuck in the back of the fridge, and I forgot about it,” Johnson said. “One beer was left. I thought I would hold onto it until the Cubs got in the playoffs again.

“They played San Francisco in 1989 and lost, and it got to the point where I said we would hold onto it and drink it if – when – the Cubs won the World Series.”

Johnson’s son, also Tom Johnson, a

“Dad said we weren’t going to open the beer until we won the thing.”

Tom Johnson

Son of Tom Johnson, longtime Cubs fan 45-year-old Morris resident and a 1989 Wilmington High School graduate, was home from school at Illinois State University.

“I saw this old beer in the back of the fridge, and I said, ‘Dad, what is this?’ ” he said. “It struck me because dad is not a beer-drinking kind of guy.

Then as I got older, every time I came home, I checked on that beer. Whenever the Cubs got close after that, I brought the beer to the front of the shelf in the fridge myself.

“The Cubs got close last year, but

Minooka teacher, coach dies after cancer battle

By ALLISON SELK

Shaw Media correspondent Pastor Nate Ferguson of Village Christian Church in Minooka said that when he spoke of the story in the Bible of the man who built his house upon a rock and, when the rains came, it stood strong, it was reminiscent of his members Mark and Jess Smith.

The passage from Matthew 7:24-25 in the Bible reads, “Therefore everyone who hears these words of mine and puts them into practice is like a wise man who built his house on the rock. The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against the house; yet it did not fall, because it had its foundation on the rock.”

On Nov. 9, Mark Smith of Channahon took his last breath at Joliet Area Community Hospice at the age of 29.

According to his mother, Christi Smith, Mark had experienced intense headaches in February 2016, sought medical care, and a [thought to be] benign tumor was found on his brain.

After several procedures to relieve pressure, he was diagnosed with stage 4 brain cancer in May. In June, Mark was moved to Our Lady of Angels nursing home in Joliet

Former Minooka teacher and coach Mark Smith with his wife, Jess. for critical care, and then spent the last five weeks of his life in hospice.

Mark grew up in Channahon, where he was an athlete in basketball, baseball and track. He graduated from Minooka Community High School in 2005 and attended the University of Illinois, where he received a teaching degree, and then began his teaching back at MCHS, where he also coached

in junior high, became his bride and the couple lived in Channahon. Four years ago, they welcomed a daughter named Cora. While Mark was in treatments, Jess was pregnant with their second child, Livia, whom she delivered in May. Jess Smith said she likes to be in control and be prepared, saying God prepared her and Mark for this moment five years ago when they went back to the church.

“If I would have known in August, when I found out I was pregnant with Livia, that Mark would be going to heaven but go through hell for nine months first, I wouldn’t have been able to do it,” Jess Smith said. “God shielded us because there is no preparation for something like this.”

Mark taught geology at MCHS and took life as a role model seriously, his mother said.

“He didn’t approach anything without love. He made people feel important. He was at a banquet for 150 kids and he had something to say to each one of them. He lived a huge, full, loving life at such a young age,” Christi Smith said. “Some of us may live to 90 and never live that full of a life.”

BRIGHT IDEAS The number of seniors opting to age in place is increasing. By staying in their own homes and hiring in-home caregivers, seniors are able to remain in familiar surroundings and postpone moving to care facilities. Unfortunately, sometimes seniors are so accustomed to their homes that they may not be aware of the worn carpets, throw rugs, electrical cords, and insufficient lighting that could increase their risks of having debilitating falls. Caregivers may point out potential obstacles and suggest ways to make homes safer for senior clients. Removing clutter from floors and using brighter lighting could reduce risks of falling.

He was always clowning around, and when he got older he was a talented athlete. He didn’t know what he wanted to do in college, but after he helped as a camp counselor at Channahon Park District, he realized he loved kids,” Christi Smith said.

• BEER

Continued from page 13 then the Mets swept them.”

This year was different. The Cubs made the World Series. When Game 7 arrived, the younger Johnson called his dad and his mom, Judy Johnson, who has been married to his dad for 52 years. He told them to come over to Morris to watch the game and bring their Cubbie bear and the “W” flag that they set next to the television, plus the beer.

“Dad said we weren’t going to open the beer until we won the thing,” he said.

The elder Johnson’s sister, Betty, brother, Rick, his wife and their son, Jeff (the Morris High School athletic director who is more like a brother than a cousin to the younger Johnson) and his family also were there to watch Game 7 and cheer on the Cubs.

Things got tense when Cleveland tied the game, 6-6, in the bottom of the eighth inning, and then a rain delay occurred after the ninth inning.

Finally, when play resumed in the 10th inning, the Cubs completed an 8-7 victory for the first World Series title in 108 years.

Time to pop open the can.

“My granddaughter took video of me opening the can and it just snowballed from there. I don’t know much about technology, but I am told it has had a couple million views.”

Tom Johnson

Longtime Cubs fan The younger Johnson’s 16-year-old daughter, Grace, a junior at Morris High School, took video of the activity and put it on Twitter.

“My granddaughter took video of me opening the can and it just snowballed from there,” the elder Johnson said. “I don’t know much about the technology, but I am told it has had a couple million views.

“It was amazing to me that the can didn’t explode in the fridge somewhere along the way. When I opened it, it looked like beer but it didn’t smell too good. So I poured it down the drain.”

The social media world loved the video.

“CNN picked it up, and I understand they alone have had about 3

million views,” Grace’s dad said. “I have no idea how many have viewed it overall, but I know it’s a lot. I was at a convention for work last weekend, and I swear 90 percent of the people there had heard the story and wanted to talk about it.

“I always knew it could be a good, fun story. Dad is one of the lowestkey, most humble guys in the world, but he saves things. The beer can was one of those things.”

Meanwhile, a producer at CNN had arranged an interview after the Cubs won the world championship with father and son that would be conducted via Skype. However, President Obama was in North Carolina delivering a speech last Friday, at the same time the Johnsons’ interview was supposed to be conducted, and they were bumped. The CNN producer called and apologized.

“I’m a sales rep, so I am used to cancellations in my life,” the younger Johnson said. “But I never thought I would have a cancellation because of the president.”

Of course, who would have thought a Coors beer can stuck in the back of a refrigerator in Wilmington, Illinois, for 32 years would create such a buzz – all thanks to the Cubs.

5 FINANCIAL TIPS FOR MILITARY FAMILIES November is Military Family Month SPONSORED BY

In honor of Veteran’s Day, we are reminded of the many sacrifices service members and their families make to protect our nation. Below are tips from Grundy Bank to help make the lives of military families a little easier.

• Contribute to a Thrift Savings Plan. Military members have access to the Federal Thrift Savings Program, which offers the lowest-cost retirementsavings plan available. Have automatic contributions withdrawn from your paycheck.

• Plan for deployment. Before deploying, have a conversation with your family about managing the household budget. Consider granting power of attorney to your spouse, should they need to make any urgent financial decisions while you are gone.

Military personnel also receive additional funds while deployed. Decide on the best use for that extra cash, whether it be paying off debt or additional Thrift Savings Plan contributions.

• Consider housing options. With mortgage rates at notably low levels, homeownership can seem like a no-brainer. However, service members should consider their options. Frequent relocations and deployments can make owning a home challenging and expensive. Renting may be a smart option for short-term assignments. Decide what’s best for your family and your finances.

• Budget for a single-income household. Frequent moves are an inevitable part of military life and can make it difficult for spouses to establish stable careers. As a precaution, make plans to operate on a single-income household budget.

That way, should your spouse’s employment status change, your family will be prepared.

• Set up automatic bill pay. Whether you’re stationed state-side or overseas, automatic bill pay will give you and your family one less thing to worry about each month. It can be particularly helpful during deployments in regions where internet access is unreliable and mobile banking isn’t an option.

Veneers offer a way to ‘design’ your smile SPONSORED BY

“Sometimes we can do it without any anesthetic.

When we prepare the tooth for a veneer, we usually stay within the enamel, the outer surface, where there is no sensitivity,” said Dr. Eric Salud, lead dentist at Complete Comfort Dental in Channahon.

The smile is one of the most useful of expressions. It greets the world, welcomes potential friendship, shows pleasure and happiness and, on a more practical level, opens and closes the deal, both personal and professional.

The procedure involves grinding off the smallest amount of enamel necessary, cleaning the tooth, molding a veneer and then laminating it to the surface of the tooth. The client has input in “designing” the veneer, including coloration, size and shape. The benefit goes beyond one tooth, since gaps between it and adjacent teeth can be adjusted.

Imperfections, however small, can lessen those positive impacts. Whitening can help, but cannot mask the tiny chips, deeper enamel discolorations, small fillings and “mismatches” in tooth spacing and uniformity.

There are some limitations, however. Veneers are not used on molars since those teeth get the most stress in chewing and grinding food. Also, if a filling in the tooth is too large, a crown is a better option (it can also be sized, colored and shaped to improve appearance).

To close that deal, dentistry offers veneers, porcelain or composite resin “shells” that are laminated to the front, or face, of a tooth. These can be shaped, sized and colored to give you back all the potential of your smile. Veneers also may offer an alternative to the more expensive crown, depending on tooth structure.

Barring that, however, for the client a veneer “is a way to ‘design’ a smile, if they don’t like the color or shape of their teeth,” Salud said.

MORRIS – Incumbent Republican Jason Helland had 12,883 votes compared with 9,753 for Democratic opponent Brooke Shupe in the race for Grundy County state’s attorney.

Helland also was elected as Grundy County state’s attorney in November 2012 after having spent more than eight years in the Kankakee County State’s Attorney’s Office, where he prosecuted 89 jury trials to verdict.

A 1994 graduate of Jason Seneca High School, Helland Helland has always been dedicated to Grundy County, referring to his election in 2012 as his career goal. His re-election was just as sweet.

“We won by 10 percent in 2012, and that went up to 12 percent this year,” Helland said. “It’s an affirmation that we are doing things well.

“It’s good to know that the people of the county have the confidence that this office is headed in the right direction.”

One of the challenges Helland looks forward to is creating relationships with newly elected officials.

“I hope to help make the transition as smooth as possible for the new circuit clerk, Cori Trotter,” he said.

“Since 2012, we have had a new sheriff, a new county clerk and now a new circuit clerk. It helps when everyone has a good professional relationship and can work together. I know I am going to do whatever I can to help make the transition as smooth as possible so the offices run as smoothly as they can.”

In 1996, Helland graduated from Jo-

liet Junior College, where he earned an associate degree in applied sciences in law enforcement. During his five semesters at JJC, he focused on law enforcement and completed an internship at the Will County Sheriff’s Office.

In 1999, Helland graduated magna cum laude from the University of St. Francis in Joliet. He earned a bachelor’s degree in political science and graduated with the highest gradepoint average of any political science graduate.

While at the University of St. Francis, Helland was named as the outstanding political science student of the year for 1997-1998 and was recognized by the faculty for his excellence in research and writing. After graduation, he was welcomed back to the University of St. Francis as an adjunct faculty member from 2006 to 2013, teaching classes in political science and criminal justice.

Helland attended the John Marshall Law School in Chicago from 2000 to 2003, graduating magna cum laude with a juris doctor degree. While at John Marshall, he was on the dean’s list five times. Helland served as a Supreme Court Rule 711 intern in the Kane County State’s Attorney’s Office assigned to the domestic violence division during his last semester of law school.

After law school, Helland began his legal career serving as a public servant and assistant state’s attorney at the Kankakee County State’s Attorney’s Office for 8½ years. While in Kankakee, Helland worked in the traffic, aggravated traffic, juvenile, mental health, domestic violence, misdemeanor and felony divisions, and prosecuted 89 jury trials to verdict in Kankakee.

The communities of Minooka and Channahon, where Mark grew up and taught, rallied around the family in a big way. MCHS head boys track and field coach Nick Lundin, along with his wife and co-workers, ordered apparel with the #SmithStrong logo to sell, to get the ball rolling.

A #SmithStrong website and Facebook page were created, as business owners and members of the community hosted bowling, restaurant, yoga, haircut, run/walk, and basketball fundraisers. A benefit was hosted at Joliet Area Historical Museum, while kids sold lemonade on street corners, baseball teams took collections at grocery stores and even a car was raffled.

“The countless number of people that came out to help the family was incredible. All of these people were spokes to the wheel of the community,” Lundin said.

“So many people we know hunkered down with us. People who know life gets hard walked through the darkness with us. Mark had a belief and a trust in God, love for life, family

Optometrist

Q: How do I check my feet for foot melanoma?

Q: Do you have any driving tips for people with vision problems?

A: These suggestions are appropriate for everybody that

drives, but especially for those with less than perfect vision.

Jeffrey J. Blanco, O.D. 1. Remember to always wear your seat belt.

2. If you lose or break your glasses, don’t rely on an old pair; replace them right away with your newest prescription.

3. Avoid eyewear with temples (side pieces) that may block your side vision.

4. Do not wear sunglasses at night. This reduces the amount of light that reaches your eyes and makes driving much more hazardous. If you feel glare is a problem, consider having your glasses treated with an “antiglare” coating.

5. Don’t darken or tint your car windows, they may be too dark at night. It’s better to control light with tinted lenses that can be removed if more light is better.

6. Driving at night, dawn, dusk, heavy rain, snow and in fog is difficult for most people with limited vision. Try to eliminate driving at these times.

7. Keep your windshield, mirrors and headlights clean.

8. Choose a car with larger dials and easy to read symbols.

9. Turn the brightness up on your instrument panel so you can better observe the speedometer and other gauges more easily.

10. Sit high enough in your seat so you can see the road for at least 10 feet in front of your car. If you sit lower, the headlights from oncoming cars will be shining more directly at your eyes, causing glare.

Please mail any questions about eye problems or vision loss to: Dr. Blanco - Diplomate of the American Board of Optometry Morris Business and Technology Center, 1802 N. Division St., Suite 205, Morris, Illinois 60450 • 815-942-3042

take a closer look at your feet and ankles. An extra 60 seconds could save your life. Did you know that half of the people who learn they have melanoma of the foot die within five years because the cancer had already spread throughout their body by the time it was diagnosed? Regular self-examinations of the feet are an important way to find skin cancer early.

If the melanoma is detected in its earliest stages, the survival rate is 92 percent after that same five year span. The three most common areas to check are the soles, between the toes and around or under the toenails. If a mole, freckle or spot changes and becomes Asymmetrical or changes its Border, Color, Diameter or Elevation, see a doctor immediately. Those are the ABCDE signs of melanoma. Schedule your appointment with one of our board-certified podiatrists to have your feet checked today.

MORRIS – The Grundy County 2017 budget is $34.5 million and passed on a 12-3 vote with board members Dick Joyce, Frank Halpin and Don Neushwander Jr. voting no, and board members Doug Boresi and Debra Warning absent.

The budget has an expected general fund shortfall of just over $700,000 despite the county’s actions to tighten expenditures where it could.

Early in the budget process, the county was looking at a $2 million deficit.

“I’m very excited about the actions we are taking in Grundy County to improve efficiency while increasing the quality of services to our residents,” board Chairman Chris Balkema said.

“All of our leaders are working well together and I know that we will continue to make progress by casting a long-term vision for the County.”

The primary source of the county’s general fund revenue shortfall comes from the loss of supplemental sales tax after the Regional Transportation Authority sued Morris and Channahon, as well as other municipalities, for using taxing strategies enticing companies to open small purchasing offices in Grundy County to take advantage of low sales tax rates, also known as point of sale. While legal at the time, that practice is no longer allowed.

The sales tax revenue loss to the county’s general fund revenue is expected to be near $2 million per year.

General fund revenue estimates are at just over $13.3 million for 2017, down from $15.7 million in 2014, prior to the

sales tax rules change.

“The county is in the fortunate position of having some excess operating capital, which, in conjunction with spending reductions, will allow us to operate our budget for 2017,” County Administrator Doug Pryor said. “I want to thank the team of department heads and elected officials for their hard work finding savings and efficiencies throughout the organization. Their efforts were essential to helping the board reach a workable budget for this year.”

In addition to spending reductions, the county board placed ordinances on file to support new revenues in 2017.

These include fines for cannabis possession under 10 grams and for drug paraphernalia possession, along with an administrative tow fee for tows associated with certain arrests.

“The fines for cannabis and paraphernalia possession are in response to the decriminalization of these offenses in Illinois. These ordinances allow us to conform to the new state guidelines, while also creating revenue for the county that will not affect non-offenders,” Pryor said. “The same is true for the administrative tow fee. It will apply applied for tows associated with a specific set of violations, including DUI, and is consistent with state law and other local communities.”

The board also approved the amended 2016 budget with a 15-0 vote, with Boresi and Warning absent.

Man rewarded for service to country, other veterans

By ALLISON SELK

Shaw Media correspondent

• Thursday, November 17, 2016

More than 50 friends, along with the Minooka fire and police departments, filled Twin Rail Pub and eagerly waited to congratulate Sergio Lopez on Friday as he arrived in his new car, which was given to him as a thank you for his selfless service to our country while enlisted in the Army and as a civilian who serves our country’s veterans.

As he roared into the parking lot with his fully loaded 2016 Chevrolet Camaro SS, pub owner Scott Breslar met his friend and patron outside to be the first to congratulate him on his new car.

In 2006, Lopez suffered a career-ending injury when he lost both of his legs below the knee from an improvised explosive device while he served his second tour in Iraq.

“I was in the Army for four years, and I would have stayed in longer, but I was unable to serve due to my injuries,” Lopez said.

Since he has left the Army, Lopez has worked with organizations to help veterans in need. One organization in particular piqued his interest, and he has been a fundraiser for Associated Firefighters of Illinois [AFFI] Warrior Program, which began in 2012.

The program buys new vehicles for injured veterans of the Iraq and Afghanistan conflicts, said Tim O’Brien, chairman of AFFI Warrior Program.

“I like to help in a small way. I go with them [AFFI] to talk to people and tell my story, in hopes that it will help the next veteran. I want to pay it forward with the money I help raise – and I know with this organization, 100 percent goes to the veterans,” Lopez said.

Lopez, a regular customer at Twin Rail Pub in Minooka, asked manager Kristy Kromm if he could bring T-shirts and cards to sell at the pub to support the Warrior Program. In that short time, more than $1,000 was raised, and the AFFI took notice.

“Sergio always comes out to assist other veterans because he is grateful, and never receives anything,” O’Brien said. “So when we were looking for a recipient, I put his name into the committee and their eyes lit up and said. ‘Why haven’t we done something for him yet?’ ” O’Brien said.

On Friday, Lopez entered the filled pub and received handshakes of thanks from fellow veterans.

Before the drinks and food began, O’Brien spoke about why and how Lopez received this gift.

“When we selected Sergio, we had to tell him the car was for someone else,” O’Brien said. “He asked if he could get cards and shirts to take to a local pub and, when I let him know the car was for him, he said people are going to think I’m hustling them for my own car. To show you what kind of guy he is, we were working this morning on a house for a Marine in a wheelchair.”

Jim Collette of Minooka has been a friend of Lopez for a couple of years and said there was no one

Allison Selk for Shaw Media

On Friday, Sergio Lopez of Minooka pulled into the parking lot of Twin Rail Pub for a celebration as Lopez was given a new 2016 Chevrolet Camaro SS as a part of the Associated Firefighters of Illinois Warrior Program, which buys new vehicles for injured veterans of the Iraq and Afghanistan conflict. Lopez was injured in 2006 while on duty in Iraq with the U.S. Army. who deserved it more.

“He would bend over backward and give the shirt off his back – literally. He bought shirts to sell and one night someone wanted this shirt off of his back, so he gave it to him,” Collette said.

O’Brien said the car was bought at a great dis-

count thanks to DeKalb-Sycamore Chevrolet, Cadillac and GMC, and further funds were raised by the DeKalb Firefighters and David Hochberg of Perl Mortgage. He also stated that they raised more than needed for this car, so the extra funds went to home repairs for a disabled Marine.

OPINIONS

Low point of election happened in Illinois SPRINGFIELD – Some days I don’t know why anyone would want to run for public office.

You’ll be lied about. Vilified. Privacy will be a distant memory. And you’ll be a target, not just by your opponent, but by just about anyone with an ax to grind.

A case in point is state Rep. Avery Bourne.

The 24-year-old is the youngest person to ever serve in the Illinois General Assembly.

Not only is she bright and hardworking, but she is a genuinely nice person.

That’s why I feel especially sad to see her the target of a vile attack.

Someone took a picture of her face and photoshopped it onto the naked body of another woman and mailed the phony image to people throughout her legislative district. It even report-

VIEWS Scott Reeder edly arrived in the mailbox of her grandmother and great-grandmother.

It doesn’t get any sleazier than that.

So instead of talking about the issues, Bourne spent too much of the final days of her campaign responding to this disgusting attack.

Just who would do such a thing?

I don’t know. All eyes turned to her Democratic opponent, Mike Mathis. He denies it. And frankly it would it would have made little sense for him to have done such a thing.

So who did it?

Police are investigating, but we still don’t know.

But we do know whoever did the mailing has some degree of political knowledge. According to news reports, political donors and interest groups also received the mailings.

It’s the sort of attack I can’t fathom being used against a man.

Imagine someone pasting Mike Madigan’s face onto a photo of a naked man and mailing it out.

No, it just wouldn’t be an effective smear campaign. But, unfortunately, women in public life are held to a different standard. Rumors are spread, lies are told and usually it pertains to their personal lives.

In fact, I’ve known several young woman holding legislative office who have been the subject of these kind of rumors.

Men on the other hand are given a pass.

MORRIS – Anyone who has spent much time at the Grundy County Fairgrounds, whether at the fair itself or at the Grundy County Speedway for the weekly stock car races, has seen or spoken to Burdette Carter.

Carter was a fixture at the fairgrounds, riding his golf cart around the property while taking care of just about everything.

Carter died on Sunday at the age of 84 at his home in Mazon.

All his life, Carter was very active in stock car racing and county fairs throughout the state.

Early in his life, he visited county fairs, showing sheep at livestock exhibitions. His love for county fairs continued for more than 60 years with the Grundy County Fair, both in Mazon and Morris.

He served on the Grundy County Fair Board in many capacities, including secretary, treasurer and vice president. Over the years, many honors were bestowed upon him for his dedication and service to the Grundy County Fair.

“He will be truly missed,” Carter’s son, Scott, said in a telephone interview. “Both at the fairgrounds and the Speedway. He liked to have his hands in things and it will be hard to

operate without him. He made many, many friends throughout the years and the phone here has been ringing off the hook.

“He loved the fairs, especially the showing of the livestock, and he loved the races. He had been saying he was going to retire for about 10 years, but he never did. I think it’s what kept him going.”

Carter was born on Dec. 7, 1931, 10 years to the day before the bombing of Pearl Harbor, and served in the U.S. Marine Corps from 1952-54 as an aircraft mechanic.

On March 12, 1954, he married Barbara Nell Bolen in Dwight.

He is survived by his wife of 62 years, Barbara; sons, Kerry (Donna) Carter, Scott (Vicki) Carter, and twin grandsons, Kameron and Keenan Carter. Burdette was preceded in death by his parents, Russell and Olive Mae Carter.

Visitation will be from 4 to 7 p.m.

Thursday, Nov. 17, at the U.C. Davis-Callahan Funeral Home, 301 W. Washington St. in Morris.

A celebration of Burdette’s life will be at 10 a.m. Friday, Nov. 18, at the funeral home.

Burial will follow at the Abraham Lincoln National Cemetery in Elwood with full military honors conducted by the Mazon American Legion Honor Guard.

Reasons to shop local in downtown Morris Thanksgiving is just around the corner, with Home For the Holidays and the peak Christmas shopping season immediately following.

Although many of our downtown shops already have had their holiday open houses, to many, the Home For the Holidays weekend (Nov. 25 to 27) marks the beginning of the Christmas shopping season.

I would like to encourage you to check out our unique and independent shops while enjoying all that the weekend has to offer.

Nov. 25 is Black Friday and Nov. 26 is Small Business Saturday.

Avoid the crowds and traffic at the mall, and visit downtown Morris for personal service and relaxing, stressfree shopping. Our downtown stores are brimming with holiday spirit and friendly faces.

And you will be happy to find unique items that you won’t find at crowded malls. These one-of-a-kind businesses are an integral part of the

COMMUNITY PULSE Julie Applegate distinctive character of our community.

There also are many economic reasons to shop locally.

Morris boasts a 6.25 percent sales tax.

Compare this with Joliet at 8.75 percent and Chicago at 10.25 percent and think of the savings.

Speaking of taxes, for every $100 spent at locally owned business, an average of $45 goes back into the community and our tax base.

For every $100 spent at chain stores, only $14 comes back.

By shopping locally, you also are encouraging local prosperity.

Economic research shows that entrepreneurs and skilled workers

are more likely to invest and settle in communities that preserve their oneof-a-kind businesses and distinctive character.

And don’t forget your personal savings of the gas and time when you shop locally.

Local retailers also are more likely to support community organizations.

On average, nonprofit organizations receive 250 percent more support from smaller, locally owned business owners than they do from large businesses.

These local owners, who are invested in our community’s future, ensure that high-quality merchandise is available for their customers.

Our downtown retailers also offer competitive prices and specials yearround.

But the Home For the Holidays weekend may be one of the best times to shop as those with a ticket for the Nov. 26 House Walk will receive 25 percent off selected items at many stores.

If you are out of town during the Home For the Holidays weekend, there still are plenty of opportunities to shop.

Many of our downtown retailers have extended hours until Christmas.

And you won’t want to miss one of the most fun shopping events of the year, “Midnight In Morris” on Dec. 2.

So grab your friends and shop until midnight.

Your favorite downtown retailers will be offering all kinds of specials and treats.

So before you take that trip to the mall, shop downtown Morris first!

Seneca FFA team ranks among country’s best SUBMITTED REPORT The Seneca FFA Landscaping and Nursery Career Development Team placed 12th in the country at this year’s competition at the National FFA Convention.

Led by Grant Granby’s and Truman Daggett’s gold rankings, the team was only one placing away from obtaining gold. Jamie Goslin and Hannah Cisco also contributed to the team score.

The intense career development event covered knowledge and skills needed to be successful in the landscaping and nursery industry. Components of the competition included a written test covering plant science and landscaping knowledge.

Members were required to identify more than 125 plants, 80 pieces of nursery/landscaping equipment and more than 50 plant ailments. They also had to complete several practical skills assessments related to the landscaping industry, including proper and safe equipment use, plant placement, patio construction, tree installation and plant propagation.

In addition to technical knowledge, the event challenged students’ written, verbal and math skills with a series of practicums that required them to com-

A pilgrimage close to home

Jean Tyrell shares the benefits of local ‘Camino’ hike

By JEAN TYRELL

Shaw Media correspondent MINOOKA – I walked on a 12-mile hike in October with a Chicago area group of American Pilgrims on the Camino to get ready for the experience of a European walking pilgrimage.

The pilgrimage is the Spanish “El Camino,” a walking journey of many days to Santiago de Compostela in northwestern Spain. A pilgrimage has religious connotations; the ending place of the walk in Spain is the cathedral where St. James the Apostle is buried.

Walkers chose to hike the Camino for many reasons. Some are looking for spiritual guidance; others walk for exercise or to experience the high that a physically demanding outing provides.

Talking to the group members from

I became intrigued by this pilgrimage after friends made the journey a year ago. Pam Boucher of Joliet told me about the APOC group that walks monthly and shares their experiences about the Camino.

For newcomers like me, the monthly walk is Jean Tyrell a chance to learn more about the Camino experience and get some tips about the trek.

Plus, I wanted to exercise with a group.

ument, stamped.

Thousands make this pilgrimage every year – the number of hikers peaks in the summer – but this famous walk came into the American conscience with the 2002 movie, “The Way,” starring Martin Sheen.

John Barrett, a leader of the Chicago APOC hikers, said one advantage of the monthly walks is the opportunity for novice walkers to exchange information with veteran walkers.

“Ask three people [about the Camino],” Barrett said, “And you will get five answers.”

Joe Flavin of Frankfort said the walk gives him time to clear his head.

“The main reason is that I can think while walking,” Flavin said. “The Camino provides a distraction-free environment.”

Flavin has taken the pilgrimage walk by himself six times. Each time he started from a different location in Spain, France or Portugal and walked toward Santiago.

He also talked about the system of hostels or albergues along the Camino route, which provide lodging. Coupled with bed-and-breakfasts and guest houses, each town on the route has amenities catering to the walkers.

There are pilgrim meal options, and some communal meals at the albergues, so walkers need not carry tents or food.

I don’t know exactly when I will walk the way, but the idea of the pilgrimage is enticing.

goal appealed to me.

The fall colors were starting to show and migrating birds flew over the Oct. 8 hike. We walked from Houbolt Road in Joliet to Channahon State Park along the I&M Canal Trail and back.

Walkers told me the Camino helps determine the essentials because many hikers carry everything they need for the journey in their backpack. There is an aspect of simplicity about the trip.

One of the Camino paths starts in France and is 450 miles long, which could take more than a month, depending on how fast you walk and how much time you have. Some people, like Boucher, walk one section of the Camino and return another time to finish the rest; the draw to the experience is that great.

People who start in St. Jean, France’s pied du port or “door to the walk” plan to end up in Santiago, where they can get their “Compostela,” or walking doc-

Pressure’s on

Potent Peoria offense next challenge for Morris defense in semifinals

By ROB OESTERLE

roesterle@shawmedia.com MORRIS – The age-old physics question about what happens when an irresistable force meets an immovable object will get a test Saturday when the high-powered Peoria High School offense comes to Morris to take on the stingy Redskins’ defense in a Class 5A semifinal football game at 3 p.m.

One thing working in the Redskins’ favor will be the fact that they are at home for the ninth time this season.

Morris (9-2) is 8-0 on its home turf this year, but has to deal with a Peoria team that has been putting up points at will.

The Lions have amassed 700 points through 12 games, an average of 58.3 per game. Their lowest point total of the year came in a 21-9 win over Dunlap and their only loss was a 35-28 decision to Danville.

Peoria is coming off a 68-46 win over Washington in the quarterfinals after defeating Decatur Eisenhower 96-40 in the second round. Peoria has scored 70 or more points in four of its games and

“We know they are good. You don’t make the semifinals if you aren’t a good team. But, we are good, too. They have put up a ton of points, but they are human. Like most games this time of year, it will come down to who makes the fewest mistakes.”

Alan Thorson Morris coach

finished with 68 on three other occasions.

“This team is very fast and very athletic,” Morris coach Alan Thorson said about the Lions (11-1). “We’ve faced fast, athletic teams this year, like DeKalb, which is in the semis in 6A, and we only lost to them, on the road, by a touch-

down. It’s going to come down to can our defense stop their offense often enough to give our offense a chance.

“We know they are good. You don’t make the semifinals if you aren’t a good team. But we are good, too. They have put up a ton of points, but they are human. Like most games this time of year, it will come down to who makes the fewest mistakes.”

Most of the Lions’ damage comes via the running game, as the one-two punch of Geno Hess and Jaleen James has been as good as it gets. Hess averages 204 yards on the ground per game, with James chipping in with 108.

Quarterback Coran Taylor adds another dimension to the running game as he is averaging 96 yards on the ground, as well as throwing for 124 per game.

And one of the linemen in front of them, Kendrick Green, has a wealth of offers from Division I schools.

“They do like to run the ball,” Thorson said. “And they have a lot of threats in their running game. We will have to stick with our assignments. The hardest thing will be how quickly we can

adjust to their speed, because you just can’t simulate that in practice. All of our seniors remember seeing them play us two years ago, so they have at least an idea of what to expect.”

Morris’ best option may be to play keep-away as best it can, using the theory that the Peoria offense can’t score if it doesn’t have the ball. In order to do that, though, the Redskins are going to have to clean up their game a bit.

“We probably had more penalties last week than in any other game this year,” Thorson said. “But those are all fixable, and we have to fix them. We can’t have penalties that stall drives or get plays called back. All three phases of our game have to be working well. This isn’t goiing to be one of those games when the offense picks up the defense or vice versa. We are going to have to be very solid on both sides of the ball and on speical teams.

“The kids are really focused this week and ready to work hard. They know they have a tough game ahead of them, but they are very confident in their own abilities, too.”

Younger players stepping up to big roles for Morris

By ROB OESTERLE

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

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

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

Executive Editor, Pro Football Weekly

It’s been a few years since the Morris football team has reached the semifinals in the playoffs. Since 2012, to be exact.

However, in the Redskins’ long playoff history, a semifinal appearance is nearly a guarantee for a state title shot.

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

Dan Hampton

Rich Galgano

FAMILIAR FOE

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

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

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

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

“This junior class has really stepped up,” Thorson said. “Payton Voitik has made a lot of big plays for us in the secondary and the offensive linemen [Feeney, Goff and Korte] have been a big key to our running game.

Indians show they belong with the best in Class 4A state title match

By KAITLYN JASNICA

kjasnica@shawmedia.com

• Thursday, November 17, 2016

NORMAL – Every program has a starting point where it puts itself on the radar. For the Minooka volleyball team, that happened Saturday night.

The Indians never had reached the Final Four before this season, but on Friday the Indians beat Stevenson, 2517, 25-13, to earn a trip to the Class 4A state championship match.

Minooka fell to Mother McAuley, 25-19, 19-25, 25-19. Taking the topranked team in the nation to three sets is a huge accomplishment, however, and doing that in the championship match is even bigger.

“We get to say we took the No. 1 team in the nation to three in the state championship game,” Minooka’s Alli Papesh said. “Not many people can say that, and having this be our first time down here at state, playing that kind of game, bringing this many fans and having everyone care about each other and want it just as bad ... even though it didn’t turn out our way, we fought hard and I’m really proud of everyone on this team.”

“That’s an incredible feeling,” setter Brooklyn Bachmann said. “The whole feeling, we wanted to push to this point. We wanted to be the first team to make it to state. That was our goal in the beginning of the year. Once we made it here, we wanted to win it all. We knew we could. We knew we belonged here.

“The outcome didn’t turn out the way we wanted it to, but I don’t think we would have wanted to end in any other situation. We took the No. 1 team in the nation to three. I’m proud of how we performed tonight.”

The Indians did play well overall and actually were stronger defensively and blocking. Offensively, McAuley had only a two-kill advantage. The biggest difference was errors. In Game 1, Minooka had six serving errors and in the third, McAuley scored seven unanswered points.

The second set was a different story. The Indians brought their “A” game.

Outside hitters Papesh and Rocky Perinar were on fire. Defensively, the Indians were lights out. Junior libero Taylor Baranski did not let a ball drop and came out with some miraculous digs, and at the net junior middles Olivia Klank and Sammi Hermann were

PROVING A POINT

Members of the Minooka volleyball team celebrate with their second-place trophy after their title match against Mother McAuley at the IHSA State Volleyball Finals on Saturday. The Indians pushed the Mighty Macs to three sets before losing, 25-19, 19-25, 25-19.

“The outcome didn’t turn out the way we wanted it to, but I don’t think we would have wanted to end in any other situation. We took the No. 1 team in the nation to three. I’m proud of how we performed tonight.”

shutting people down.

Papesh ended the night with a court-high 20 kills while adding 10 digs and four blocks. Perinar totaled 12 kills and 11 digs and Holly Bonde had four kills and three blocks. Bachmann

dished out 31 assists and had 14 digs.

Baranski dug a court-high 20 digs and Klank and Hermann both had three blocks.

“I’m proud of them. They didn’t give up and took Mother McAuley to three,” Minooka coach Carrie Prosek said. “I know there are some out there thinking that they would just step all over us. It’s unfortunate that we had so many unforced errors in Game 1 and Game 3. When we were errorless in Game 2, it showed how good they could be.”

Minooka will have another year for a large portion of the roster to prove how good it can be. The Indians will return all but one starter.

Four seniors will graduate from the program. Bachmann, Matti Ziech (five digs), Katie Bulger and Kamryn Johnson were huge in leading the Indians to the successful season. They all have high hopes for the team next year.

“They are the most talented team and group of girls that I’ve ever seen and ever played with,” Bachmann said. “They make practice so fun and they make me love them so much. I wouldn’t want to go out with any other group of girls.”

In the returning players’ minds, this state tournament was only the start. Now they plan to keep building up their programs.

“It’s exciting because we know that we can compete with McAuley and we can compete with them again next year if we see them,” Baranski said.

“The fact that they’re the No. 1 team in the nation is amazing. We played our hearts out. I hope for the same thing next year.”

“We made history and this is now going to turn into our tradition,” Prosek said.

which is better than having to wait and sit on the bench for a couple of years.

I want to make the most out of doing what I love when I get there, so that was a big factor, too.”

Day was Morris’ top bowler at the Decatur Eisenhower Regional last winter, rolling a six-game total of 1,048 in helping the Redskins place second and advance to the Dixon Sectional.

Friend, meanwhile, has been a mainstay on the Morris softball team since she was a freshman and hopes to do the same at St. Ambrose, a campus she adored immediately.

“I didn’t get too far into the recruiting process,” she said. “I just loved St. Ambrose right away. I actually committed last January, so I haven’t had that to worry about for a while. This season, I will be able to just go out and play and not have that pressure to think about. It will be nice to just relax and not worry about who might be there watching or scouting.”

Friend says that St. Ambrose is looking at her primarily as a third baseman, which is the position she has played most of her career. However, she wouldn’t be afraid to switch positions should the need arise.

“I’ll do whatever they want me to do in order to help the team,” she said. “If that means I have to switch positions, then I’ll do it.”

It is that type of attitude that her current coach, Jen Lowery, feels will carry Friend toward success at the next level.

“Ryan definitely has the work ethic to succeed at the college level,” Lowery said. “She has been a very good leader and role model for us and she should be able to step right in at St. Ambrose and have an impact. We are going to miss her when she’s gone, but we’re glad we have her for one more season.”

NEW LENOX – The Morris Lady Redskins finished fifth out of 14 schools at the Lincoln-Way Central IHSA Sectional on Saturday.

The Lady Redskins were led by the relay team of Kylie Kamradt, Jordan La Mont, Madison Kohlmeyer and Alex Kaste, as they finished third in the 200 medley relay (1:56.88) and fourth in the 400 freestyle relay (3:50.58). Both times set new school records in each event.

Kohlmeyer also placed third in the 500 freestyle (5:25.23) and sixth in the 100 butterfly (1:04.20), the latter time setting a school record as well. Kamradt finished fourth in the 100 backstroke in 1:01.61, also setting a school record. She also finished seventh in the 200 IM (2:20.93).

La Mont placed seventh in the 200 freestyle (2:06.74) and ninth in the 100 freestyle (59.56). Kaste placed 10th in the 100 breaststroke (1:16.73) and ninth in the 50 freestyle (26.75).

The 200 freestyle relay team of Ryanne Gorman, Stephanie Melendez, Grace Alford and Kylie Wissel placed eighth in 1:56.89. Gorman also placed 11th in the 500 freestyle (5:56.86), while Meghan Carr placed 10th in diving (268.20).

Lincoln-Way East won the event with 292 team points.

Illinois Smallmouth Alliance always looking for new members Volunteers are the lifeblood of many worthy causes and organizations. They give of their time, talents and financial resources to uphold causes they believe in. The outdoors is no exception to the giant impact that a grass-roots organization can have. One such organization is the Illinois Smallmouth Alliance.

As the name suggests, this group of avid anglers and outdoor enthusiasts focus their work on the smallmouth bass. Each of them has fallen in love with the feisty fighter that occupies many Illinois rivers and streams. Their love for this fish has led them to seek like-minded people who care enough to make smallmouth fishing better across the Land of Lincoln.

Once you have hooked your first river smallmouth, a love affair sets in that can withstand the test of time.

These members cannot pass over flowing water without wondering what might lurk beneath the rippled surface.

It drives them. It also reminds them of the important work they do.

Our rivers and streams are susceptible to all sorts of problems. They are

INTO THE OUTDOORS Steve Rogers the first stop for our storm sewers. It is common to find loads of garbage along their banks and around bridge piers. Massive erosion can silt in their clear waters and constant development threatens the habitat that makes up the shoreline. All of these topics are addressed by the Alliance.

I recently had a business meeting with their former president, Jim Jozwiak. He talked about some of the things the group has accomplished in the last 15 years while he was at the helm.

Some of their notable achievements include placing of over 500 smallmouth regulation signs along the state’s rivers and streams letting anglers know what laws govern the fish. They have also removed thousands of pounds of garbage from water all over the state.

The Alliance has supported habitat

by planting thousands of water willows along the shorelines of smallmouth waters, and they are in constant contact and support with the Illinois Department of Natural Resources.

The have helped the DNR in stream shocking surveys, donated money to support the purchase of poaching abatement tools, and also assisted with a mussel survey on the Little Vermillion River.

This is only a partial list of the numerous activities that Alliance members have helped with in the recent past.

The Illinois Smallmouth Alliance has a strong membership in the Chicago area, but they also have regional meetings and gatherings all through Illinois.

If you visit their website, www.illinoissmallmouthaliiance.net, you can take a look at what they do.

If you are interested in becoming a member, the dues are $30 per year.

That also includes a subscription to a top-notch newsletter that comes six times annually. The newsletter is not

a flier with a few paragraphs about recent meetings, but a full-fledged magazine.

Jim gave me a handful of past issues and I was impressed. There were many great articles on fishing tips and techniques. They even covered the latest and greatest smallmouth equipment, as well as information about their upcoming gatherings.

If you like to use a fly rod, the Alliance has a strong contingent of fly fishermen. There are even events throughout the year where members and retailers bring in new rods that you can try out. Imagine getting to try a rod before buying it? That doesn’t happen all that often.

I love to fish for smallmouth and I know that I am not alone in that passion. If you fall into that category, then becoming a member of the Illinois Smallmouth Alliance may be just for you. It would even make a great Christmas gift for someone you know!

MORRIS – It’s not quite Moses leading his people out of Egypt, or even as big as the group of celebrities threatening to move to Canada, but two Morris athletes decided last Thursday to leave the state and head to college in Iowa to continue their academic and athletic careers.

Corrinne Day will go to Clarke University in Dubuque and join the bowling team while Ryan Friend will play softball for St. Ambrose University in Davenport. Both plan on studying elementary education and becoming teachers.

Both girls were very pleased with the choice they made, and neither one had to look very long for the right fit.

“I liked everything about it when I went to visit,” Day said about Clarke.

“It’s got a good bowling program and it’s a small school, which is something I was looking for, too. The teacher-to-student ratio is about 1:11, so it will be easy to get to know my instructors and them to get to know me.

“The team was real supportive of me when I went and visited. I think I will be able to step right in and contribute,

“Ryan definitely has the work ethic to succeed at the college level. She has been a very good leader and role model for us and she should be able to step right in at St. Ambrose and have an impact.”

ASK DOCTOR K Anthony L. Komaroff If your semen analysis is abnormal, your doctor will take a complete medical history and test your hormone levels.

The doctor will also perform a physical exam.

He or she will look for evidence of genital infections, blocked sperm tubules in the testes or shrinkage of the testicles.

Particularly if the physical examination indicates there is a problem, various tests often are ordered. You may need an ultrasound of the testicles and scrotum to picture any possible blockages. Your sperm may be tested. The role of the sperm is to swim toward a woman’s egg and to fertilize it.

The ability of the sperm to swim in semen can be studied with a microscope. So can the ability of your sperm to penetrate a hamster egg.

If it can’t, it will likely not be able to penetrate a human egg.

Genetic tests may be performed.

Several gene defects have been identified in recent years. Finally, a biopsy of the testicles may show any of several diseases that impair the production of sperm.

If there is a specific reason for your infertility, it may be possible to treat. If you have no treatment options, consider assisted-reproduction techniques, such as artificial insemination or in vitro fertilization.

Problems with fertility often have a solution – with a healthy baby as a result.

Dear Dr. K: My wife and I have tried to get pregnant for over a year. We’re going to be tested soon to see if anything is wrong. I’m worried that the problem lies with me. What are some reasons for a man to be infertile?

Dear Reader: About one in seven couples in the United States are unable to conceive a child after trying for one year.

The infertility is caused either by the man alone (about 40 percent of the time), by the woman alone (about 40 percent of the time) or by both partners (about 20 percent of the time). So it is possible that something about you is responsible for your wife’s difficulty with becoming pregnant.

Male infertility may be caused by a variety of problems: • HORMONAL PROBLEMS. For example, low levels of testosterone (the main male hormone) or thyroid hormone.

• PROBLEMS WITH THE TESTICLES. These include abnormal growth or development, or damage from trauma and infections.

• PROBLEMS WITH THE FLOW OF SPERM. This may include blocked tubes that transport sperm, or problems with ejaculation.

• ABNORMAL SPERM FUNCTION. This may affect the ability of sperm to fertilize an egg.

• EXPOSURE TO TOXINS. Radiation, for example, or industrial chemicals.

• MEDICATIONS AND DRUGS. These include psychiatric medications, alcohol, and anabolic steroids used for bodybuilding.

Your evaluation will likely begin with a semen analysis. This test measures the amount and quality of your semen and the number and quality of sperm. If your semen analysis is normal, you may not need further testing.

7 p.m. on ^ WBBM NCIS Abby (Pauley Perrette) samples the potential perils of leaving the lab in “Lockdown,” finding herself in a “Die Hard”-like scenario when she’s trapped inside a building infiltrated by armed men. With no means of contacting anyone outside, she uses her wits in a bid to defeat the villains. Guest stars include football veteran turned game analyst Tony Gonzalez and “Three’s Company” alum Priscilla Barnes. Mark Harmon also stars.

7 p.m. on % WMAQ Movie: Free Birds Two turkeys (voices of Owen Wilson and Woody Harrelson) try to prevent others of their kind from becoming the main courses of many Thanksgiving dinners in this animated, moderately entertaining 2013 comedy. They travel back to the time when settlers first established the course — and courses — of the traditional holiday meal, hoping to change that history. Amy Poehler, Keith David, “Star Trek” icon George Takei and director Jimmy Hayward also supply voices.

10:29 p.m. on % WMAQ Saturday Night Live If you can’t go home again, Kristen Wiig didn’t get the memo. Following her seven-season run

Two turkeys travel back to 1621 to prevent the first Thanksgiving in “Free Birds” Saturday on NBC.

7 p.m. on @ WFLD The Simpsons Pro football veterans Dan Fouts and Matt Leinart voice their animated likenesses in the new episode “Dad Behavior,” which sees Homer (voice of Dan Castellaneta) relying on an app to fortify his relationship with Bart (voice of Nancy Cartwright). Grampa (also voiced by Castellaneta) is stunned to learn that he’ll soon have another child to call his own — very literally.

Julie Kavner and Yeardley Smith also are in the voice cast.

7:30 p.m. on ^ WBBM NCIS: Los Angeles Callen (Chris O’Donnell) questions someone close to home — his father (guest star Daniel J. Travanti, “Hill Street Blues”) — in the new episode “Glasnost.” Dad was found in the hospital room of an NCIS-related victim of radiation poisoning, and his son wants to know why. With Thanksgiving approaching, the team members consider what to do for the holiday. Joan Severance (“Wiseguy”) and India De Beaufort also guest star. LL Cool J and Linda Hunt also star.

8 p.m. on + WTTW Poldark on Masterpiece Ross (Aidan Turner) has decidedly mixed fortunes as Season 2 of the drama reboot continues with “Episode Eight.” He goes on trial for smuggling, but others including Jud (Phil Davis) rally to his defense. He’s not as fortunate where Elizabeth (Heida Reed) is concerned, since she accepts a proposal in order to get help for her ailing mother. Dwight (Luke Norris) has troubles involving Caroline (Gabriella Wilde).

8 p.m. on @ WFLD Family Guy Several literary classics get loose retellings — very much in the style of this animated comedy — in the new episode “High School English.” Educators may shudder, or laugh, when they see what characters including Peter and Stewie (both voiced by Seth MacFarlane) do to three renowned tales that long have been classroom staples: F. Scott Fitzgerald’s “The Great Gatsby,” Mark Twain’s “The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn” and John Steinbeck’s “Of Mice and Men.” 8:30 p.m. on ^ WBBM Madam Secretary An executive producer and frequently a director of this series, Eric Stoltz (“Mask”) reprises his guest role as Elizabeth’s (Tea Leoni) brother Will in the new episode “Tectonic Shift.” He debates whether to work on his marriage while taking a Walter Reed Medical Center job, or to go to Venezuela to assist in the relief effort after a massive earthquake there. Elizabeth worries
