Good morning, McHenry County ...

Madigan documentary to stream online Michael Madigan is the most powerful state politician in Illinois. He arguably holds more power than any state lawmaker in the country.

He has served in the Illinois House since 1971, and he has been Speaker of the House for all but two years since 1983.

Many claim that he is the one elected official most responsible for Illinois’ dire fiscal situation. I’m among those who believe that.

Beginning Monday evening at NWHerald. com, viewers will be able to watch an hourlong documentary about Madigan’s rise to power and the influence he has wielded since becoming speaker.

“Madigan: Power, Privilege, Politics” was produced by Illinois Policy Action, the advocacy arm of the Illinois Policy Institute, a conservative-leaning policy and research organization.

Yes, the producers of the documentary lean to the right politically. Madigan is a Democrat.

Whether you think the filmmakers had an agenda or not, the documentary is worth watching. Unless you’re a Madigan historian, I’m sure you’ll learn many new things about him.

Among those interviewed for the piece were former Illinois Senate President Emil Jones; Chicago Tribune columnist John Kass;

FROM THE EDITOR’S DESK Dan McCaleb University of Illinois professor Dick Simpson; Ann Lousin, who helped draft the 1970 Illinois Constitution; and Rob Blagojevich, brother of the now imprisoned former Illinois governor.

Keep in mind that the Northwest Herald does not endorse any of the opinions expressed in the documentary, just as we do not endorse the opinions of columnists, letter writers or guest editorialists who appear on our Opinions pages. As with the content on our Opinions pages, we are simply providing a platform so our readers and viewers have access to a variety of information and viewpoints.

The documentary will remain on our website’s home page until Wednesday evening.

After viewing it, please send your thoughts and/or questions my way. I hope to write a follow-up column sharing your feedback.

WASHINGTON – Bill Murray accepted a bust of Mark Twain for his lifetime achievement in comedy – and immediately handed it to the audience to be passed around. Murray – who received the Mark Twain Prize for American Humor – was honored Sunday night at the Kennedy Center by more than a dozen of his co-stars and collaborators, including David Letterman, Sigourney Weaver and his older brother, Brian Doyle-Murray. Murray thanked his brother for helping him get his start in improvisational theater.

FIRST-RATE ATHLETIC CARE

Centegra program provides on-site trainers to local athletes

By NATE LINHART

nlinhart@shawmedia.com The Centegra Sports Care program provides several high schools around McHenry County with additional athletic training and clinical services.

Via the program, Centegra’s athletic trainers are working with experienced surgeons, neurologists and physical therapists to educate students on the latest treatments in sports medicine and provide them with on-field care. If an injury occurs, a student athlete will have access to a complete range of medical services and specialized providers from Centegra Health System.

“This program shows that Centegra has really committed their physicians in the health system to the care of the ath-

letes in the county,” said Dr. William Cox, the medical director of Centegra Sports Care.

The program started in 2014 and is in its third school year. It is paid for by the high schools using the services. Schools that are part of the program include CaryGrove, Crystal Lake Central, Crystal Lake South, Prairie Ridge, Huntley, Woodstock, Woodstock North and Johnsburg.

Two other high schools that also receive medical coverage from Centegra are Richmond-Burton and Wauconda.

The program has many benefits for the student athletes, including clinical coverage at home games, access to Centegra’s Sports Concussion program and heart screenings.

Richmond-Burton athletic trainer Julianne Stewart and Centegra orthopedic surgeon Matthew Samuelson talk Oct. 7 during the first half of the Richmond-Burton and Marengo game. The Centegra Sports Care program provides local schools with certified athletic trainers on-site during sporting events, access to Centegra’s Sports Concussion Program and clinical coverage at home games.

• TRAINERS

Continued from page A3 “It initially started with the concussion testing, but then it has evolved into complete care of the athlete,” Cox said.

One major advantage of this program, Cox said, is how immediate the care is for student athletes.

“The high school seasons are short,” Cox said. “A high school has just nine games in a regular season, and if someone misses one game, they’ve missed more than 10 percent of their season.

So we are trying to help them not have to miss that time and see a provider as soon as possible.”

Huntley High School is in its second year using the Sports Care program, and it currently has one full-time Centegra employee who works at the

helped his athletes, but also has created a strong relationship between the school and Centegra.

“There’s an expectation that athletic training services will be at sporting events, just like you’d see on TV,” Rozanski said. “Considering how many kids we have, Centegra’s presence is still very well-known.”

According to Centegra Health System, the Sports Care program treated 1,200 athletes and conducted 4,100 concussion tests in just its first year.

Centegra Chief Operating Officer Jason Sciarro said he’s looking to expand the program to every school in McHenry County and its surrounding areas.

Dr. William Cox, medical director “For us, this isn’t just about proof Centegra Sports Care viding athletic training, but it’s about establishing relationships with the stuschool. Huntley athletic director Chris dent athletes and supporting these local Rozanski said the program has not only families,” Sciarro said.

A high school has just nine games in a regular season, and if someone misses one game, they’ve missed more than 10 percent of their season. So we are trying to help them not have to miss that time and see a provider as soon as possible.”

Foundation chose 27 educators for $15,000

By NATE LINHART

nlinhart@shawmedia.com McHENRY – The Illinois Retired Teachers Association Foundation has awarded $15,000 in grant money to several educators from northern Illinois. One of the grant’s recipients is Gina Nicholls, a second-grade teacher at Edgebrook Elementary School in McHenry.

The grant money allows these educators to purchase materials that will enhance their daily lessons. Nicholls said she is using the grant money to buy more science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) materials for the classroom.

“I like to have my students participate in STEM activities,” Nicholls said. “But the materials have to be ones that wouldn’t be used up after just a few classes.”

100

Wanting to find materials that would last several years, Nicholls said she looked for STEM material ideas in a Lakeshore Learning catalog.

“I found some that I’m so excited to add to my classroom’s collection,” Nicholls said. “I’ve ordered them with the grant funds and can’t wait to see what my students can do with these materials.”

Nicholls, who has Gina Nicholls been a teacher for the past 27 years, said these items will give her students more opportunities to learn about engineering and problem solving.

“STEM is great because it teaches students more than just science and math,” Nicholls said. “It also allows them to work together as a team and further shows off their creativity.”

According to the Illinois Retired Teachers Association, Nicholls was one of 27 public school educators to receive this year’s grant.

At each film showing, MCC students also will collect new sweats in any size or color for the Northwest Center Against Sexual Assault. The clothing will be used locally at area hospitals for victims of sexual assault.

REDUCING CATARACT RISK WITH DIET As we all know, one of the best ways to reduce the risk developing cataracts is to wear sunglasses and wear broad-brimmed hats that shield the eyes from damaging ultraviolet (UV) rays. Another way to prevent the eye lens from clouding involves making a slight adjustment to our diets.

Research involving sets of twins over a period of ten years shows that consuming diets rich in vitamin C was associated with a 33% reduction in risk of cataract development. It is thought that vitamin C’s ability to inhibit eye lens opacity is based on its strength as an antioxidant. The fluid inside the eyeball is normally high in vitamin C content, which helps prevent oxidation and lens cloudiness.

Should you change your diet? At CRYSTAL LAKE OPHTHALMOLOGY, we stress preventive eye health care and periodic checkups by your ophthalmologist. Regular medical eye exams may help prevent unnecessary vision loss. We are committed to providing exceptional vision correction services and making our patients’ comfort, safety, and satisfaction our top priorities. Please call 8.5455.4222 to schedule an appointment. We’re located at 280-A Memorial Court. Your eyesight is priceless! Let us help you protect it.

Newspaper Enterprise Association TODAY – Think about good ways to use your skills to advance. Set practical goals that will inspire you to keep climbing upward instead of discouraging you. Size things up, recognize what’s required and, most of all, keep things in perspective. If you are honest about your expectations, your creative dreams will come true.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) – Someone will intervene or take charge if you hesitate or show signs of uncertainty or inconsistency.

Be confident and unafraid to take an unusual approach to whatever you do.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) – You must be

honest with yourself and with others. If you candidly share your hopes and dreams, your personal and professional lives will benefit.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) – Don’t take on more responsibility when you should be getting rid of the dead weight you’ve been carrying.

Stick to the tried and true methods that have worked in the past.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) – Don’t give in to someone else when you should be doing your own thing. An opportunity is apparent, and you don’t want to miss out. Contracts, investments and romance are all highlighted.

PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) – Proceed with caution. If you are misleading or your motives are questionable, you will be excluded from something important. Stick to the truth when

dealing with personal and professional matters.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) – Stay focused and intent on getting what you want. A financial gain looks promising, but may come with strings attached. A personal commitment will help you put your plans into play.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) – You need to keep your head down and your mind on your work.

Don’t let emotional matters escalate into something that you can’t control. If you say little and do a lot, you will avoid criticism.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) – A partnership can lead to good fortune if you are up-front about your feelings, expectations and desires. Glide into the future with someone you can count on.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) – Overspending on or being too generous with friends or children

isn’t necessary. You can have just as much fun if you choose entertainment that isn’t costly.

Use your imagination.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) – Take a moment to refresh your appearance and to do something special that will make you feel good. A loved one will make a move that will change your life.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) – Keep a strict budget and a close watch over your possessions and assets. Get involved in an event that will give you a platform to present what you have to offer.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) – Baby steps will be necessary. If you leap without looking, you will end up in debt or in the middle of a dispute.

Focus on personal improvements that fit your budget.

1st woman to climb Everest dies

By KEN MORITSUGU The Associated Press

TOKYO – The first woman to climb Mount Everest didn’t stop there.

Japanese mountaineer Junko Tabei, who died Thursday at 77, devoted her adult life to scaling peaks, climbing the tallest mountains in more than 70 countries.

Her philosophy was to live life to the fullest. “I want to climb even more mountains,” she said in a 1991 interview with The Associated Press, 16 years after conquering Everest. “To think, ‘It was great,’ and then die.”

To do so required defying stereotypes, and a supportive husband, in a country that thought a woman’s place was in the home.

She founded the Ladies Climbing Club in 1969 with the slogan “Let’s go on an overseas expedition by our-

Born: Aug. 31, 1931; in Chicago, IL Died: Oct. 5, 2016; in Crystal Lake, IL Janet M. Glienna (nee Phillips), passed away peacefully at Crystal Pines Rehabilitation Center, Crystal Lakes, IL. She was 85 years old.

She was a graduate of Taft High School, Harrington Institute of Design, and a Master Gardener. She was a lifelong artist, interior designer, gardener, cat lover, and a member of the Baha’i faith.

She was a former resident of Sarasota, FL; Tacoma, WA; Park Ridge, IL; and Chicago, IL. She enjoyed her family, grandkids, and her best friend of 50 years Mary Gayle Selfridge, Sarasota, FL. She is survived by her brother, James B. Cady (formerly James B. Phillips) of Beverly Hills, FL; her 4 children, Daniel B. Glienna, Martin J. Glienna, Julie M. Mueller, and Jennifer R.

selves,” and reached the summit of Everest on May 16, 1975, as the leader of the climbing party of an all-female Japanese team.

“Most Japanese men of my generation would expect the woman to stay at home and clean house,” the mother of two said in the 1991 interview.

In 1992, she became the first woman to comJunko Tabei plete the “Seven Summits,” reaching the highest peaks of the seven continents.

Tabei died of cancer at a hospital outside of Tokyo, Japanese media reported Saturday.

She was born in 1939 in Miharu, a hilly farming town in Fukushima prefecture about 140 miles north of Tokyo.

Her first summit was nearby Mount Nasu with her teacher in the fourth

grade.

Later in life, she became concerned about the degradation of Everest, completing master’s studies in 2000 at Kyushu University in southern Japan on the garbage problem as the famous mountain was opened to more climbers.

“Everest has become too crowded.

It needs a rest now,” she said at a 2003 parade in Nepal to mark the 50th anniversary of the first successful ascent of the peak by Sir Edmund Hillary.

She kept climbing even after being diagnosed with cancer four years ago, Japanese public broadcaster NHK said.

Her goal was to climb the tallest mountain in all of the more than 190 countries of the world.

She fell short, but ticked off four more as recently as 2015, according to her website, in Niger, Luxembourg, Belgium and Oman.

She was preceded in death by her husband, Daniel L. Glienna; her sister, Claudia Vennell (Nee Phillips); her parents, Claude B. and Clara J. Phillips and Earl P. Cady; and grandparents, Arthur T. and Minnie A. Fletcher (nee Bartells).

She was cremated in accordance to her wishes.

BRIEF 1932, ’36 Olympic hurdler Simone Schaller, dies at age 104

ARCADIA, Calif. – Simone Schaller, an American hurdler who competed at the 1932 and 1936 Summer Games and was believed to be the oldest living Olympian, has died. She was 104.

Grandson Jeffrey Hardy said Saturday that Schaller died of natural causes Thursday in the home she and her husband built when they married in the 1930s.

Schaller tied Babe Didrikson Zaharias for the world record in the first round of the 80-meter hurdles at the 1932 Los Angeles Games.

Schaller finished fourth in the final behind Didrikson, who set another record.

According to Olympic historian David Wallechinsky, Schaller had taken up hurdling only three months earlier.

At the 1936 Berlin Olympics, Schaller made it to the semifinals.

She won the hurdles at the 1933 U.S. championships. She was also an avid tennis player.

Illinois House District 63

The Northwest Herald sent candidates in contested races questionnaires seeking their views on a variety of issues. Below are responses to five questions from Illinois House District 63 candidates. Responses to four other questions from these candidates appeared in Saturday’s edition.

Visit NWHerald.com/election-central to read all responses in this race and other contested races on McHenry County ballots.

– Dan McCaleb

STEVEN REICK Republican

JOHN BARTMAN Democrat What’s your plan to reform the state’s massively underfunded pension systems?

We need to follow the guidelines of the Illinois Supreme Court ruling. The best thing to solve the pension crisis is getting our economy back on track again, so the state will receive its normal revenue from the employment taxes.

I support moving all new employees to a defined contribution model of retirement savings. While the Illinois Constitution guarantees the benefits under the state’s retirement and health care systems, the drafters placed the responsibility for funding directly upon the Legislature, which has utterly failed in that task. The Teachers’ Retirement System board has just announced that it is lowering the assumed rate of return on its portfolio from 7.5 percent to 7 percent, which will increase the annual contribution to the plan by an estimated $400 million to $500 million range (http://www.pjstar.com/news/20160826/ teachers-retirement-system-decision-could-cost-illinois-millions). While such a move would reflect economic reality, that horse left the barn years ago. It also points out the absurdity of maintaining a pension system where all of the portfolio risk falls upon the taxpayer, while those who benefit hide behind an unsustainable constitutional guarantee. Many of my clients are pilots for United Airlines, and I know firsthand what it looks like when a pension plan explodes, and it’s not pretty. The same thing’s happening here, only the numbers are bigger and the taxpayers are going to be left holding the bag.

Do you support a constitutional amendment to allow for redistricting reform in Illinois? Explain.

I believe the voters should be given the opportunity to decide who and how our districts are drawn. I support Jack Frank’s bill for redistricting, which passed nearly unanimously in the House.

We need to have the people and governmental officials decide the districting map.

I do support such an amendment, because it’s high time that voters be allowed to choose their representatives, not the other way around. Unfortunately, the Illinois Supreme Court ruled otherwise, but I will continue to support any move to get politics out of the task of setting legislative boundaries.

Do you support a change in the school funding formula? Can equitable change be achieved without a tax increase?

Yes, we need to receive our fair share of funding from the state of Illinois. Currently the state is only paying 13 percent of the bill for education in Illinois. We need to reach the 51 percent state funding level for our schools which is mandated by the state constitution.

I’ve discussed education funding extensively on my blog (www.steve463.com). Article X, Section 1 of the Illinois Constitution Education says: “The State has the primary responsibility for financing the system of public education,” but the political forces that control the legislature have seen to it that too much of the money that people in my district send to Springfield to fund education ends up in Chicago. There needs to be a complete revision of the way we fund education, and it begins with treating a kid in Harvard the same way a kid in the CPS system is treated. I’m interested in exploring the educational funding program that has been adopted in Nevada, called the “Educational Choice Scholarship Program” (https://www.edchoice.org/school-choice/programs/nevada-educational-choice-scholarship-program/), which puts parents fully in charge of the money being allocated by the state for their children’s education. Any way you slice it, we need to change the way we pay for education so as to give the property owners in my district relief from the crushing burden of real estate taxes.

What project in your district, unrelated to tax or budget issues, will be your top priority if elected?

My top priority will be working with the local, state and federal officials to build a stronger transportation network for the county. I want Metra to extend to Huntley and Marengo. I want more express trains on the existing network to Woodstock, Harvard and McHenry. I support the Route 23 and I-90 interchange and the Route 53 extension.

I would like to see continued progress on the plan to widen and improve Route 47.

Are you endorsing your party’s nominee for president? Explain.

I agree with most of the residents that neither of the candidates are rather strong, and I will let the voters decide for themselves.

I’m focusing on the race for the 63rd District. Neither Donald Trump nor Hillary Clinton can do anything to reduce property taxes in McHenry County.

STATE Overjoyed Cubs fans turn attention to World Series Cubs fans celebrate Saturday night outside Wrigley Field after the Cubs defeated the Los Angeles Dodgers, 5-0, in Game 6 of the National League Championship Series.

By CARLA K. JOHNSON The Associated Press

CHICAGO – With a mix of euphoria, relief and disbelief, long-suffering Cubs fans are shaking off superstitions and setting their sights on the team’s first World Series in 71 years.

Loyal fans as far south as San Antonio, Texas, and as far west as Washington state restructured their worldviews to include the seductive possibility that they won’t be disappointed again.

“For me, personally, I had tears in my eyes. I’ve seen them come close,” said Chicago native Jimmy Tingas, 47, who owns Wrigleyville Grill in San Antonio where he caters to homesick former Chicagoans still craving hot dogs and Italian beef. “We have one more task to do. I’m confident they’re going to do it.”

First lady Michelle Obama joined the chorus Sunday morning, congratulating her hometown Cubs a day after the team defeated the Los Angeles Dodgers at Wrigley Field in Game 6 of the NL Championship Series.

The Chicago native tweeted: “Way to go Cubs!!” She then recalled her fa-

Mundelein High School Dist. 120 sued after teen’s suicide

MUNDELEIN – The family of a 14-year-old Illinois high school student who killed herself last year is suing the local school district, arguing that it neglected to follow protocols that could have prevented the teenager’s death.

The lawsuit accuses Mundelein High School District 120 of not having an up-to-date suicide prevention policy at the time of Mikyla Wren’s death in October 2015, as was required by a new state law. The girl’s family is not seeking monetary damages in the lawsuit.

“We just want the school to do what they’re required to,” said her father, Thomas Hannigan.

A district spokesman said the

ther, saying: “My Dad is the reason I’m a true Cubs fans. He’d be so proud!”

Lifelong fan Marilyn Hnatusko wiped away tears after the win Saturday night, recalling other longtime Cubs fans.

“I thought of all my relatives who didn’t see this, my dear Uncle John, and now I can’t quite believe it happened,” she said.

Scattered across the world, Cubs fans make up their own diaspora. Blizzard-hardened folk, their befuddling loyalty encompasses decades of frustration, disillusionment and too many

superintendent had not seen a copy of the lawsuit and could not comment.

According to the lawsuit, the girl’s mother asked for an immediate risk assessment from the school social work department after receiving notice from the dean that her daughter used the word “suicide” on her school-issued laptop. The teenager was not seen by her counselor until six days after the request, and she took her life five days later, the suit alleges.

Gov. Bruce Rauner signed a law in August 2015, called Ann Marie’s Law, mandating that all Illinois public schools provide age-appropriate suicide and depression awareness. It also requires prevention education programs for students in kindergarten through high school.

The Mundelein High School district did not have its updated suicide awareness and prevention plan in place before the 2015-16 academic year, as required by the law, according to the lawsuit.

Feds end lease with Illinois for state park, citing neglect

CARLYLE – The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers said Illinois has so badly neglected a state park at the popular Carlyle Lake area that the agency is taking it back.

The Belleville News-Democrat reported that the Army Corps recently ended Illinois’ lease for the nearly 300-acre South Shore State Park. The federal agency said Illinois has allowed the park to “become degraded, resulting in unsafe conditions and minimal usable recreation facilities.”

The park is now closed for needed upgrades.

The Illinois Department of Natural Resources said roadway maintenance within the site has not occurred because the state does not have a long-term budget.

The state’s lease was supposed to run through 2025 for the property at Carlyle Lake, a popular recreation area in western Illinois about 50 miles

Kropp said Sunday. “It’s dumping all these emotions into something that never gives you anything back. Hanging out at Wrigley, having a beer and knowing you’ll never get to the promised land. These fans have more credibility [than other teams’] to say they’re the best fans in baseball.”

A Midwestern impulse toward redemption is welling up on social media with a “ForgiveBartman” hashtag campaign pulling for Steve Bartman to throw out the first pitch when the World Series returns to Wrigley Field.

Kropp favors forgiving Bartman, the fan whose interference with a foul ball in the 2003 playoffs added to the sense of a hovering curse. “But they should seat him five rows back or higher, just in case,” Kropp said.

Restaurant owner Tingas, too, is having some trouble letting go of some traditional Cubs beliefs, such as the infamous billy goat curse: “When we win the World Series, we’re going to have roasted goat, I’ll tell you that.”

Steve Zucker, who’s been coming to games since the 1940s, said before Saturday’s game that if the Cubs won, he would go to his father’s grave and leave a Cubs hat and T-shirt.

Chicago officer shoots man in traffic stop encounter

CHICAGO – Officials said a Chicago police officer shot and wounded a suspect after the man fled a vehicle and confronted an officer with a weapon.

A spokeswoman for the agency that investigates police-involved shootings told WFLD-TV in Chicago that officers Sunday morning pulled over a vehicle that had been reported stolen.

Independent Police Review Authority spokeswoman Mia Sissac said one officer opened fire, hitting a man multiple times.

Police spokesman Anthony Guglielmi said the man was struck in the lower extremities.

No officers were injured.

Chicago police said three men exited the vehicle and fled before one “confronted an officer with a weapon.” Police said three people are in custody and two weapons were recovered.

The wounded man was taken

to the hospital. Guglielmi said he was in serious but stable condition.

NATION & WORLD BRIEFS 13 killed as tour bus slams area they cordoned off measures around 38 square miles, and into slowed-down truck

PALM SPRINGS, Calif. – A tour bus returning home to Los Angeles from a casino trip plowed into the back of a semi-truck on a California highway early Sunday, killing 13 people and injuring 31 others, authorities said.

A maintenance crew had slowed down traffic on Interstate 10 before the vehicles crashed just north of the desert resort town of Palm Springs, California Highway Patrol Border Division Chief Jim Abele said.

The work had gone on for hours without problems, he said.

Abele said the bus carrying 44 passengers was going much faster than the truck. “The speed of bus was so significant that the trailer itself entered about 15 feet into the bus,” Abele told reporters.

It was not known if alcohol, drugs or fatigue played a role in the crash about 100 miles east of Los Angeles, Abele said. The bus driver was killed, and the truck driver received minor injuries.

Iraqi forces advance near Mosul; IS hits elsewhere

KHAZER, Iraq – Iraqi Kurdish forces pushed toward Mosul on Sunday, cordoning off eight villages and coming within 5½ miles of the northern city held by the Islamic State group, which staged an attack in a western town hundreds of miles away in an apparent diversionary tactic.

The Kurdish forces said the

that they secured a “significant stretch” of highway. The statement said eight car bombs were destroyed, including three

by U.S.-led coalition aircraft, and “dozens” of militants were killed.

The offensive near the town of Bashiqa came nearly a week after Iraq announced the start of the long-awaited Mosul offensive.

Women march to defend wearing yoga pants

BARRINGTON, R.I. – Hundreds of women, girls and other supporters proudly donned their yoga pants Sunday afternoon as they peacefully paraded around the Rhode Island neighborhood of a man who derided the attire as tacky and ridiculous.

Alan Sorrentino said the response to the letter to the editor, printed in The Barrington Times Wednesday, has been “vicious” and that he’s received death threats. He implored marchers to stay away from his home and maintained the letter was meant to be humorous.

But organizers said the socalled yoga pants parade wasn’t a protest against Sorrentino specifically but part of a bigger movement against misogyny and men dictating how women should dress.

More than 300 people – many of them women and young girls – came out for the social media-driven event.

Clinton looks past Trump, aims to help other Dems

By JOSH LEDERMAN and CATHERINE LUCEY The Associated Press

DURHAM, N.C. – Newly confident and buoyant in the polls, Hillary Clinton is looking past Donald Trump while widening her mission to include helping Democrats seize the Senate and chip away at the Republican-controlled House.

Although Trump’s campaign insisted Sunday it was premature to count him out, it’s Clinton whose path to winning the White House has only grown wider in the race’s final weeks. Even longtime Republican strongholds such as Utah and Arizona suddenly appear within her reach Nov. 8, enticing Democrats to campaign hard in territory they haven’t won for decades.

The shifting political map has freed Clinton and her well-funded campaign to spend time and money helping other Democrats in competitive races. Clinton said she didn’t “even think about responding” to Trump anymore and instead would spend the final weeks on the road “emphasizing the importance of electing Democrats down the ballot.”

“We’re running a coordinated campaign, working hard with gubernatorial, Senate and House candidates,” said Robby Mook, Clinton’s campaign manager.

And for good reason.

After a merciless two-year campaign, the next president will face the daunting task of governing a bitterly divided nation. If Clinton wins, her prospects for achieving her goals would be greatly diminished unless her victory is accompanied by major Democratic gains in Congress.

“We’ve got to do the hard and maybe most important work of healing, healing our country,” Clinton said Sunday at Union Baptist Church in Durham, North Carolina.

For Democrats, there’s an-

RIGHT: Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump speaks during a campaign rally Saturday in Cleveland. other reason to try to run up the score. With Trump warning he may contest the race’s outcome if he loses, Clinton’s campaign is hoping for an overwhelming Democratic victory that would undermine any attempt by Trump to claim the election had been stolen from him.

In a rare admission of fallibility by the typically boastful Trump, his campaign acknowledged he’s trailing Clinton as Election Day nears.

“We are behind. She has some advantages,” Trump campaign manager Kellyanne Conway said. Still, she added, “We’re not giving up.

We know we can win this.”

Conway laid out in granular detail Trump’s potential path to winning: victories in Florida, Iowa, North Carolina, Nevada and Ohio, to start.

If Trump prevents Arizona and Georgia from falling to Democrats and adds in some combination of Colorado, Virginia, New Hampshire and Pennsylvania, he could reach the 270 electoral votes needed, Conway said.

It won’t be easy. A current Associated Press analysis of polling, demographic trends and other campaign data rates Virginia as solidly Democratic, while Colorado,

New Hampshire and Pennsylvania are all leaning Democratic. Arizona, remarkably, is a toss-up.

Campaigning Sunday in Florida, Trump called for voters to elect a Republican House and Senate that would “swiftly enact” his priorities, which include overhauling taxes, restoring higher spending on defense and repealing the Affordable Care Act. “We can enact our whole plan in the first 100 days – and we will,” Trump said.

If Clinton wins, Democrats would need a net gain of four Senate seats to retake the majority. House control would be much harder, considering Republicans currently enjoy their largest House majority since 1931. Democrats would need a 30-seat gain, a feat they haven’t accomplished in roughly four decades.

Clinton’s nascent focus on helping fellow Democrats comes with an inherent contradiction. For months, she deliberately avoided the strategy employed by other Democrats of trying to saddle all Republicans with an unpopular Trump. In August, she said Trump represented the “radical fringe,” rather than the mainstream of the Republican Party.

Posting ballot selfie? Check your state laws first

By BRUCE SHIPKOWSKI The Associated Press

TRENTON, N.J. – You probably already know whether you’ll vote for Donald Trump or Hillary Clinton on Election Day, leaving one important question to consider when you walk into your polling place: Is it OK to take a picture of your ballot?

While secrecy in the voting booth has become a thing of the past for those ready to share their views and daily lives on social media, laws nationwide are mixed on whether voters are allowed to take pictures of themselves in the act or of their ballots – “ballot selfies.”

Federal judges have struck down bans on selfies in New Hampshire and Indiana, and rules have been changed in places such as California and Rhode Island. But in many states, it’s still a violation that carries potential fines or jail terms.

There are laws against sharing any photo of your ballot in 18 states, while six other states bar photography in polling places but do allow photos of mail-in ballots, according to a review

by The Associated Press.

(In Illinois, selfies are banned by a law that considers “knowingly” mark-

ing your ballot so another person can see it to be a felony that carries a prison sentence of one to three years.)

Critics said such regulations have not kept up with technology and are confusing for voters and election workers. Some states that ban ballot selfies or have moved to block them cite concerns the photos could harm the integrity of the voting process by encouraging vote-buying or coercion, although some acknowledge there’s no evidence to support those fears.

Nikola Jordan, 33, of Omaha, Nebraska, has been taking such photos for about 10 years and believes they are a great way not only to share her views on the issues, but also to stress the importance of voting and being civically active. A Nebraska lawmaker added a provision to state election law this year to allow ballot selfies.

“I was doing this for years before I learned it was technically illegal,” Jordan said with a laugh. “It’s all about encouraging other people to get involved in the process, to show it can be fun and exciting to make your voice heard [at the polls]. Don’t think of voting as some boring thing ... It’s your chance to make a difference.”

Bill Phillips of Nashua, N.H., takes a selfie Feb. 9 with his marked election ballot. that New Hampshire’s ban on ballot selfies was unconstitutional, saying it suppressed a large swath of political speech and there was no evidence to support the state’s concerns.

“It goes to the core of democracy,” said Gilles Bissonnette, legal director for the American Civil Liberties Union of New Hampshire, which brought the suit on behalf of three people investi-

gated for violating the statute.

Among those filing briefs in support of ballot selfies was Snapchat, which argued they are the latest way voters, especially young adults, get involved in the political process and express support for or against a cause or a candidate.

“We had a failure to recognize the importance of online political speech, especially to the younger generation,” Bissonnette said. “The First Amendment needs to be guarded rigorously. These old laws cannot and should not be applied to the modern technology.”

California Gov. Jerry Brown signed a bill last month that repeals a 125-yearold law barring voters from showing people their marked ballots. It goes into effect after the November election, but legislative analysts have found no occasion of the ban being enforced – and it hasn’t stopped people from sharing photos of their 2016 ballots.

Colorado started mailing ballots this week in the all-mail presidential election, and some ballot selfies started popping up on social media. In response, Denver District Attorney Mitch Morrissey on Thursday issued a reminder that publicizing completed ballots is a misdemeanor in the state.

as independents, according to an analysis by nonpartisan research firm Political Data Inc. Millennials represented over half of the new registrations. Latino registration, barely out of single digits a generation ago, represented nearly 30 percent of new voters, the data showed.

Democratic pollster Ben Tulchin, who worked for Bernie Sanders in the presidential campaign, said the influence of the new voters is being felt in competitive congressional races, where Republicans in a handful of once-safe districts are being threatened.

For Republicans, the rising influence of Hispanic voters is especially troubling in a year when their presidential nominee is Donald Trump, who has vowed to deport millions of people living in the country illegally.

The GOP’s troubles with Hispanic voters in California can be traced to 1994, when voters, with encouragement from Republican Gov. Pete Wilson, approved Proposition 187, which prohibited immigrants in the country illegally from receiving public health care, education or other social services.

The law was overturned, but it left lingering resentment with many

Hispanics at a time when the Latino population was becoming increasingly important in elections. It’s also played a role in the prominent Democratic tilt to a state that sent Republicans Ronald Reagan and Richard Nixon to the White House but now doesn’t have a single Republican elected to a statewide office.

State figures released earlier this month showed the percentage of voters registered as Democrats had increased by 2 percentage points since the 2012 presidential election, while those aligned with the GOP dropped over 3 points. The share of independents, who tend to vote like Democrats, also increased.

The shift can be seen in places such as Riverside County, where Democrats now hold a thin registration edge in what once was Republican turf.

“You can track the progress Democrats have made in registration, and you can quantify the impact,” Tulchin said.

Republicans shuddered after the U.S. Senate primary in June. None of the party’s little-known candidates broke out of single digits in the vote count, allowing two Democrats to claim the two runoff spots in November, a first in the modern era.

LOS ANGELES – Come Election Day, California could legalize pot. Its new U.S. senator will be black or Hispanic – a first for the state. And voters could end the death penalty and revive bilingual education in schools.

The outcome of voting Nov. 8 is likely to reflect long-term trends that have seen the nation’s most populous state become increasingly diverse and firmly Democratic in its politics.

A new wave of voters – many young, Hispanic or both – are poised to contribute to generational, demographic and cultural shifts that are reshaping California. More than half of new voter registrations this year are millennials – younger people who tend to be more liberal than older Californians.

The election also could strengthen the argument that California is becoming a one-party state. Most of the new voters are registering as Democrats or independents. And the number of voters aligned with no party is on track to eclipse Republicans, whose registration numbers are in freefall.

A key indicator of the change is the race to replace U.S. Sen. Barbara Boxer, who was first elected in 1992. The

contest is a matchup between two Democratic women, Attorney General Kamala Harris, whose father is black and mother is from India, and Rep. Loretta Sanchez, the daughter of Mexican immigrants.

“I think that says a lot about where we are moving,” said political scientist Larry Gerston, Loretta professor emeritus at CalSanchez ifornia State University, San Jose.

In addition, policies from past decades, when the state electorate was overwhelmingly white, could be recast or reversed.

Voters are being Kamala asked to repeal the death Harris penalty, which was reinstated in the 1970s but has not been carried out since 2006.

They could also dial back a 1998 voter-passed law that largely dismantled bilingual education at a time when illegal immigration was surging.

Through mid-October, more than 4 million people registered, or reregistered, to vote in California. Half signed up as Democrats, a meager 19 percent as Republicans and the rest primarily

ANOTHER VIEW

You’re great!

Love, Canada Canadians delivered a love note to Americans via social media, and it was basically the international equivalent of taking a casserole to a neighbor in need.

Clearly our friends to the north can tell this election season is making a lot of us queasy.

The #TellAmericaItsGreat campaign includes a video in which several dozen Canadians tell us what’s right about our country.

“We know you’ve got some really big decisions to make,” says one. But “as you think about your future, we want you to know we really think you’re great.”

Why? There’s jazz. There are the National Parks.

There’s America’s diversity and openness. We dream big and when “things are tough, you fight to make them better.”

But really. Why? In a blog post called “A Friend in Need,” The Garden collective, an image marketing agency behind the effort, spelled it out: “It’s no secret that America is going through a hard time right now. The election has exposed some pretty scary realities that will likely challenge them for years to come, regardless of who’s elected. They’ve been bombarded with a tremendous amount of negativity, and it’s likely that for many of them, the immediate future seems rather bleak. ...

America could probably use a little cheering up.”

At a time we’re churning out so much rich material for comics and other peddlers of satire and one-liners, these Canadians decided a little kindness might be more helpful. How right they are.

It’s not just neighborly. It’s a welcome reminder that we, the people of the United States, are bigger and better than any one election cycle.

These pro-America messages are a necessary reminder that America is better than its politicians.

And that we will get through this – with a little help from our friends. The pro-America campaign is the nice thing to do, which feeds into the stereotype about Canadians and will no doubt provide some fodder for those comics and one-line peddlers. So what? Have at it, laughmeisters.

Kindness is the only thing we need more than a good laugh right now. More, we need to respond to each other with generosity of spirit. Sounds like a fairy tale, doesn’t it?

Yet Americans responded to the #TellAmericaItsGreat campaign with #ThankYouCanada. Sure.

It’s a small thing – especially if you stay tightly wrapped in a cloak of cynicism. But it’s also a kindness that speaks to what’s good in us and our international neighbors.

To the Editor: Two weeks ago, the Chicago Tribune endorsed Gary Johnson, the Libertarian candidate for U.S. President.

Gary Johnson will not be elected president. Either Donald Trump or Hillary Clinton will.

Both the Tribune and the Northwest Herald have said more than the usual negative things about Trump and have concluded that he is not fit to be president. The Northwest Herald went further and said he was not fit to hold any elected office.

And yet the Northwest Herald is not endorsing any candidate. I consider this a feckless and frightened position.

Fine leaders

To the Editor: I strongly support Jeff Thorsen

and John Reinert to represent me on the McHenry County Board for District 2. I will definitely be voting for these fine leaders. I’ve known Jeff for close to 25 years and he is not only honest but he’s a smart leader we can depend on. I have only heard great things about John Reinert.

Wow, although I can’t vote in District 4, I strongly support Kay Bates. I know Kay personally and trust her. She has a sharp mind and as the president of the McHenry Area Chamber of Commerce, she knows how to bring business to our county and lower home owner taxes. She will work hard to bring jobs to our county.

Able and zealous advocate

To the Editor: I am a retired Circuit Court judge.

I was the judge assigned to Courtroom 302 in Woodstock when Mr.

Patrick Kenneally began prosecuting felonies in that courtroom years ago. Now he is a candidate for state’s attorney.

I can comment on Mr. Kenneally’s courtroom ability because I presided over many trials and hearings in which he participated.

Mr. Kenneally is an able and zealous advocate. He has very good courtroom skills. Mr. Kenneally’s discretion is sound.

I watched Mr. Kenneally wrestle with the complexities of his cases in the courtroom. I also watched as the complexities of his career and of his personal life challenged him outside the courtroom. He did a good job handling all the challenges. He succeeded because ultimately, he embraced his responsibilities. I rely on him to continue to do a good job.

I intend to vote for Patrick Kenneally.

To the Editor: For over 25 years, the Crystal Lake Library Board, the library staff and citizen’s advisory groups have been considering alternatives and options and have analyzed them from pillar to post.! They have investigated all possibilities and, in the meantime, have been very frugal in the use of your tax dollars.

What can be done to improve the existing library has come to an end. The time has come to build a new structure – one that can serve our needs for the future – before construction costs increase.

We need more study rooms (we now have one), and the Ames Room where programs are held has been carved up and reduced in size with each renovation.

We need a flexible meeting space to serve our community’s needs.

Also needed is a disability-accessible building and one that provides up-to-date technology.

Please vote “yes” for your library and for your community.

Strength training builds bone Dear Dr. K: I recently was diagnosed with osteopenia. My doctor advised strength training because it can help slow bone loss. How does it do that?

Dear Reader: Osteopenia is a thinning of the bones. It often is a precursor to osteoporosis, a more severe thinning of the bones. Osteoporosis puts you at risk for disabling, and sometimes debilitating, fractures.

Bones are filled with cells. Some cells build up new bone; other cells tear down old bone.

In most people, those two processes are in good balance. But in some people, particularly as they grow older, more bone gets torn down than built up.

To reverse that imbalance, and the osteopenia that comes from it, you need to stimulate the bone-building process.

Bone, like muscle, follows the “use it or lose it” rule.

One way to “use it” is to exercise.

When you exercise, particularly in strength training, it stimulates the formation of new bone. The tug of the muscles on the bone, and the weight that the bone is being asked to support, signal the bone-building cells to work harder.

Strength-training exercises build muscle by harnessing resistance – that is, an opposing force that muscles must strain against. Resistance can be supplied by your body weight, free weights, elasticized bands or specialized machines. No matter what kind of resistance you use, putting more than the usual amount of load on your muscles makes the bones stronger.

Strength training should target bones of the hips, spine and wrists, as

SUDOKU

ASK DOCTOR K Anthony L. Komaroff

these are the bones that are most likely to fracture.

People with osteopenia, like you, or with osteoporosis have to exercise carefully. A person should not do exercises that could cause thin bones to fracture.

For example, I tell my patients to protect their spine.

This means avoiding activities and exercises that require you to bend your spine, especially to lift a weight. Bowling is a common example.

I also advise my patients to avoid freeweight exercises and machines that put added stress on the spine. These include some leg-press machines, leg raises performed lying down, and squats done with weight bars resting on the shoulders. A person with thinning spine bones needs to do strength-training exercises that build strong core muscles.

I don’t know your age, but it’s possible that you’re thinking as you read this: “I’m too old to do strength training, to work out with machines and weights and such.” That’s wrong. Supervised weight training in older people builds muscle and bone.

Finally, don’t stop with strength training. Add a few balance exercises to your routine to reduce your risk of falls.

am a college student on the East Coast. A dear friend of mine who attends the same university goes home on break to the West Coast. She was raped at a party. Over the summer break she found out she was pregnant and had an abortion. She’s now suffering from some intense emotional and psychological problems and sees a campus therapist.

Abby, I want to be supportive, but I’m not sure how. I don’t know what to say around her or how to keep her mind off it, or if I should.

Can you help me? – Concerned Friend Dear Concerned Friend: You are this young woman’s friend. Let her know you are there for her. Treat her as you always have and talk about the things you always have with her. It is not your job to distract her from thinking about what happened to her. If she wants to talk about it, be prepared to listen and sympathize. But if she needs more than that, remind her she has a licensed therapist who is more qualified to help than you are, and encourage her to contact the person if something is dragging her down.

Dear Abby: I’ve had three different secretarial jobs over the past 10 years. At two of them something has happened, and I’m hoping you can help me deal with the situation.

While at my desk, I’ve had bosses who enter my office, come around to my side of the desk and stand very close to me. Sometimes they’ll even start keying things into my computer – all without asking. It feels like an invasion of my personal space. I wouldn’t do that to them.

Why do they feel they can do this to me? Or am I making too much of the whole thing? Please help. – Silent Secretary In Texas Dear Silent: Different people have different boundaries when it comes to personal space.

Because having someone come around your desk and stand close to you without permission makes you nervous, speak to your boss about it. That someone would reach over you to type something into a document you are working on seems to me to be rude, but your employer may have been trying to add something or correct errors, and thought it would be a faster way of getting the job done than trying to explain it to you. It might reassure you to discuss this with some of the other secretaries, ask if this is common and whether it bothers them, and let them advise you.

Dear Abby: I know food often is described as “finger-lickin’ good,” but I’m appalled at the number of people who literally do this at restaurants. Didn’t they ever learn to use a napkin?

WAREHOUSE / GENERAL LABOR

Retail

Martin H. Fischer, a German-American physiologist who died in 1962, said, “A nickel’s worth of goulash beats a five-dollar can of vitamins.”

At the bridge table, a goulash deal beats five contracts played in no-trump. You presort the cards into their suits, cut the deck without shuffling, and deal in groups. I do threes and fours, but some prefer a three and two fives. The deals often have very long suits. The one in the diagram was played in a social game last month. What do you think of the auction? How did five hearts doubled fare?

It is rare to open with a one-bid in goulash. West’s Unusual No-trump was weird; since partner rated to have a major two-suiter, just bidding some number of diamonds would have been preferable. East hid in the bushes over three spades.

Then South, who was preparing to double five diamonds (it probably would have failed by one trick), was pleasantly surprised to hear partner raise hearts. East finally revealed his major-orientated hand.

If West had led a club, the contract would have failed, but she selected the diamond king. Declarer looked at the diamond void and joked, “Ruff it!”

South took the first trick and played four rounds of hearts. East won, cashed his second heart trick, then tried a sneaky low-spade lead.

However, declarer knew that East, who couldn’t have a second diamond, had started with 7-5-1-0 distribution. South discarded a diamond.

When he won the trick on the board, he conceded only two trump tricks and claimed for plus 850.

Johnsburg 9-0, on a mission

By SEAN HAMMOND

shammond@shawmedia.com Johnsburg football players huddled around coach Dan DeBoeuf after beating Marengo in the regular-season finale Friday. The Skyhawks had just completed a 9-0 regular season, its first undefeated mark since 2004.

DeBoeuf’s message to the team was not a celebratory one.

“It starts tomorrow,” DeBoeuf told his players.

On Saturday, the Skyhawks learned they would open the IHSA Class 4A playoffs with a rematch against Marengo (5-4) – which they beat, 48-3.

“Our kids have had really high goals since we started our offseason after the Phillips game last year,” DeBoeuf said.

“They’ve worked really hard, and we put ourselves in a position to go and make a run at this thing.”

That run will avoid defending 4A champion Phillips until the semifinals.

Phillips has knocked out Johnsburg in the second round in each of the past two years.

DeBoeuf and the Skyhawks aren’t

thinking about the semifinals yet. If they can beat Marengo again, Johnsburg would face the winner between Manteno (6-3) and Plano (7-2). Johnsburg beat Plano by 12 points in Week 1.

No. 3 Genoa-Kingston (9-0) looms as a potential quarterfinal opponent.

“The key is keeping our composure,” running back Alex Peete said after Friday’s game. “When we go through bad moments, we’ve got to stay as one.”

Johnsburg’s best playoff run came in 2009 with current Houston Texans tight end C.J. Fiedorowicz when the Skyhawks reached the 4A quarterfinals.

Class 7A: Jacobs and McHenry played in September and could meet again if they both win in the first round. But that will be no small task.

Jacobs (5-4) is the No. 28 seed in 7A and draws No. 5 Chicago Lincoln Park (8-1). The Golden Eagles needed to beat Hampshire in their Week 9 game Friday to assure a spot in the postseason.

Jacobs has won three of its past four games.

Marian Central quarterback Gavin Scott tries to escape the grasp of Chicago St. Patrick’s Joey Lombardi in the first half Saturday at Hanson Stadium in Chicago.

Who is the Northwest Herald Football Player of the Week?

Here are the Northwest Herald Football Player of the Week nominees. Voting at McHenryCountySports.com ends at 7 p.m.

Tuesday. (Voting percentages as of Sunday night in parentheses): CHRIS KATRENICK Jacobs, QB (5 percent) Katrenick threw for 279 yards and a touchdown on an efficient 14-for-18 passing. He also ran in for a score in Jacobs’ 42-24 victory over Hampshire.

The win made Jacobs playoff-eligible at 5-4.

GAVIN SCOTT Marian Central, QB (7 percent) Scott ran for 194 yards and two touchdowns, including a 69-yard score, on 27 carries in Marian’s 21-14 win over Chicago St. Patrick. The Hurricanes secured a playoff spot with the victory, improving to 5-4.

MATT ZINNEN Woodstock North, QB (24 percent) Zinnen rushed for 114 yards and two touchdowns on 22 carries. He helped Woodstock North

Proud Sponsor of Athlete of the Week secure a playoff berth with its sixth win of the season.

ZACK UNDERWOOD Cary-Grove, DB (33 percent) Underwood had three interceptions in CaryGrove’s 42-0 win over Crystal Lake Central. He returned one of them 25 yards for a touchdown.

C-G held its opponent to single digits for the fourth time this season.

DYLLAN HESS Johnsburg, DL (31 percent) Hess scored on an interception in a 48-3 win over Marengo. Johnsburg has given up only 10 points in the past seven games combined. Hess said it was the first touchdown of his varsity career.

– Northwest Herald

fare against teams that didn’t necessarily have the grind-it-out battles we did in our conference,” Marian coach Mike Maloney said. “The 5A teams are tough all over, but we’re battle-tested and have some scars that have built up some durability.”

Tough guy: Marian running back Brian Niemaszek was taking a rare break on the sideline and marveled at the play of quarterback Gavin Scott, who rushed 27 times for 194 yards and two touchdowns.

“Gavin’s not going to lose,” Niemaszek said after another one of Scott’s bruising runs up the middle.

At 6-foot, 210 pounds, Scott resembled more of a fullback than quarterback. He credited his offensive line of Kevin Herbst, Moises Kamedula, Zach Turner, Danny Dusik and Thor Paglialong for their work making holes, but Scott’s toughness was undeniable.

“We’ve got warriors,” Maloney said. “For him to lower his shoulder and get those tough yards is a credit to his mindset and his leadership capacity.”

No. 21 McHenry (6-3) is back in the playoffs for the first time since 2007 and will face No. 12 Batavia (72). The Warriors made the playoffs 20 straight years between 1988 and 2007.

Now they return under first-year coach Nat Zunkel.

The Warriors hosted a playoff pairings show party Saturday to celebrate the achievement.

Class 5A: Marian Central (5-4) opens with Chicago Payton (8-1). But for the Hurricanes, the playoffs essentially started two weeks ago.

Marian endured a double-overtime loss to Carmel in Week 7 to drop the Hurricanes to 3-4.

They rebounded with an overtime victory over Niles Notre Dame and Saturday went on the road to beat Chicago St. Patrick, 21-14, to clinch a berth.

The Hurricanes feel the tough competition in the East Suburban Catholic Conference has prepared them well for the postseason.

• Joe Stevenson contributed to “We refuse to take any opponents lightly, but I’m excited to see how we this report.

McHenry running back Gio Purpura celebrates after a 5-yard touchdown run against Jacobs on Sept.

23 in McHenry.

The Warriors won, 33-28.

McHenry will open the playoffs Saturday at Batavia, and Jacobs will face Lincoln Park on Saturday at Lane Tech in Chicago.

Boylan got goals in the third minute and the 63rd minute before Ben Woodson scored on a 25-yard free kick late in the game for the Streaks.

Woodstock finished the season with the most wins in program history and outscored its opponents on the season, 103-30.

“I couldn’t be more proud of this team,” Woodstock coach Mike Golda said.

4 Cubs vs. Indians

Epstein’s vision comes into focus VIEWS Rick Morrissey In 1993, a 19-year-old sportswriter for Yale’s student newspaper wrote that the school’s longtime football coach should be fired. Considering the coach had won 10 Ivy League titles, it caused a stir. But the Bulldogs were on their way to a 3-7 season, the coach was at the tail end of his career, and maybe it was time for a change.

For the writer, however, the column wasn’t an example of heartfelt conviction so much as journalistic coin flip.

“We had a meeting and decided one person would write backing the football coach and one would write saying to fire him,” Theo Epstein said. “It was a lesson in the way that the world of journalism sometimes works. It was an eye-opener for me. I regret it, and I’ve happily moved on.”

He might have a future in this whole baseball thing. Under the direction of their president of baseball operations, the Cubs are headed to the World Series for the first time since 1945. Epstein took a wrecking ball to the organization when he was hired in 2011, rebuilt it over three painful seasons, and here the Cubs are, with the chance to win a championship for the first time since 1908. They face the Indians, starting Tuesday in Cleveland.

Epstein also did OK in a previous stop, winning two World Series with the Red Sox. Journalism’s loss, possibly. Baseball’s gain, definitely.

“I realized I didn’t want to be a sportswriter when I was interning with the Orioles back in ’92, ’93, ’94,” Epstein said. “I did do a lot of media-relations stuff, and I saw that the life of a sportswriter is pretty lonely.

You kind of work by yourself, sit there by yourself in the press box, go back to the hotel bar. Not to generalize.”

No worries. I’ll be right back just as soon as I go kill myself.

“I really do like working shoulder-to-shoulder with other people for a common goal,” he said, “but I really respect writing and respect sportswriters.”

Nice recovery.

Epstein isn’t a one-dimensional baseball savant, but he’s not sure

takes a long time to build that up. I’ve had 25 years in the game now, and I think that’s what contributes to doing well when I am doing well and not screwing something up – there’s a lot of both. But there’s a lot of trial and error and a lot of experience – 25 years.

I think that can be overlooked sometimes in the game.”

He’s right. There’s a reason Supreme Court justices aren’t 30.

Wisdom comes with age, although that doesn’t explain how Epstein became the Red Sox’s general manager at 28 in 2002. He’s smart, he can look a problem broadly, and he hires good people.

In 2014, he hired Joe Maddon to manage the Cubs, but that wasn’t his first meeting with the skipper. Epstein, along with current Cubs general manager Jed Hoyer, had interviewed Maddon for the Red Sox managerial position in 2003. The job went to Terry Francona, now the Indians manager.

“What I remembered was the organization of the meeting, the wellthought-out component of the meeting,” Maddon said. “For example, they gave me maybe a list of 10 different items, and I had to list them in order of importance. For example, creating your lineup, handling your bullpen, talking to the press, empowering your coaching staff. I think those were four of the examples. And then you have to list them in the order which you think is the most important thing to do on a daily basis. I thought that was interesting. So, that was part of it.

“And then just handling difficult moments. Certain player becomes difficult and he’s a star or got a great status, how do you deal with that? So you have to run by that potential scenario also. Another good question.”

Cubs wait and see on Schwarber’s return

By JAY COHEN

The Associated Press

• MORRISSEY

Continued from page 4 There has been pushback from Epstein and Maddon against the perception that they are stats-driven geeks who leave no room in their computing for flesh and blood and emotion. Maddon even talked about it hours before the Cubs celebrated their pennant Saturday night at Wrigley Field.

“Don’t forget about the heart, don’t forget about the mind, don’t forget about the motor that exists within the person,” he said. “That all matters

The Cubs’ Kyle Schwarber leaves the batter’s box during a spring training game March 26 against the San Francisco Giants in Mesa, Ariz. Schwarber could return for the Cubs in the World Series. The Cubs had ruled Schwarber out for the year after he tore two ligaments in his left knee during an outfield collision in April. after he tore two knee ligaments in an outfield collision with Dexter Fowler in the Cubs’ third game of the season. But he had an encouraging checkup with Dr. Daniel Cooper on Monday in Dallas, clearing the way for the Cubs to take a closer look at the catcher/outfielder.

If Schwarber has no setbacks in Arizona, the possibility of putting his powerful lefty swing on the World Series roster might be too tempting for Epstein to resist, even if returning for the Fall Classic after so much time off seems like a daunting task.

Schwarber hit .333 with a franchise-record five homers in nine playoff games last year, and the Indians had

10 right-handers on their staff for the ALCS against Toronto.

“Playing an American League team in their stadium, being able to utilize a designated hitter and a quality hitter in Schwarber, it would be a big boost for us,” pitcher Jake Arrieta said. “If he’s ready, obviously. Nobody wants to see a guy as important as Schwarber is to this organization go down again.

But if he’s capable, if he’s in a position strength-wise to be able to help us in that situation, obviously that would be huge for our team.”

Schwarber grounded out to first in • AP freelance reporter Jose M. his first at-bat with Mesa on Saturday Romero in Arizona contributed to this night. He bounced to second in the third, report.

when it comes to success.”

When Epstein was the Padres’ director of player development in the mid-1990s, his office was situated between the offices of the scouting director and the head of analytics.

Neither man liked each other, he said, but both liked Epstein.

“When they let their guard down around me, they’d share how they viewed the game,” he said. “That’s where I got my perspective that the game is a little bit of both. The best moves that you make, the best evaluations, make sense through the scouting director’s lens and also through

the analytics guy’s lens. You take a little bit of both. That was a long time ago, before most organizations were thinking that way, and they are now. And that helped me get a little advantage.’’

Epstein can’t recall any writers calling for his firing in either Boston or Chicago, although he is quick to point out that the Sun-Times featured him walking on water before the 2012 season and later under the water when the season was over. But firing him? No, not yet anyway. And not anytime soon with the team he has built.

He would like a do-over of that Yale column from 23 years ago, now that he’s older and wiser. But he also realizes the fallout from it was a learning experience.

“The coach was pissed, and he brought it up in the press conference after the game,” he said. “It was uncomfortable, but you write something, you’ve got to back it up.”

He’s got that right. It’s one of many things he has gotten right.

CHICAGO – Kyle Schwarber smiled and held his arms in the air, his teammates spraying him with champagne.

The Cubs had just won their first NL pennant in 71 years, and the slugger was at the heart of the party.

Well, the party in Arizona, at least.

Moments after the Cubs closed out the National League Championship Series at an electric Wrigley Field, the biggest question for the Cubs shifted all the way across the country to Mesa, where Schwarber is making an impressive comeback from major left knee surgery in April.

Game 1 of the World Series is Tuesday night in Cleveland, and the Cubs say Schwarber is a possibility for the showdown with the Indians.

“We’re not ruling anything out or anything in at this point, and we’re not going to get ahead of ourselves, either,” president of baseball operations Theo Epstein said.

The 23-year-old Schwarber went 0 for 3 with a walk while serving as the designated hitter for the Solar Sox on Saturday night in the Arizona Fall League.

He watched the Cubs’ clinching 5-0 victory over the Dodgers on a tablet in the dugout between at-bats, and then was soaked by a couple of his teammates after the game.

“A really good day for me personally,” Schwarber said.

There were no games in the Fall League on Sunday, and a spokesman for the Cubs said it was a scheduled off day for Schwarber. There was no word on the plan for the slugger for Mesa’s game against the Surprise Saguaros on Monday afternoon.

Schwarber was ruled out for the year

walked in the sixth and was robbed of extra bases on a diving catch by center fielder Noel Cuevas in the eighth.

“I felt like I put in two good at-bats,” Schwarber said. “The first two I chased a little bit, a little antsy up at the plate as expected. But once it started getting back to being normal baseball again, it started slowing down.”

Most importantly for the Cubs, Schwarber said he felt fine.

“I have full confidence in my knee,” he said. “My knee doesn’t bother me.

It was my hands that hurt the worst.

I’ve got about eight blisters on them. I guess I should have kept rubbing a bat or something.”

Schwarber was selected by the Cubs with the fourth overall pick in the 2014 amateur draft out of Indiana University. He made his major league debut last June, part of a wave of bright young talent that helped the once-downtrodden franchise blossom into one of baseball’s top clubs.

He hit .246 with 16 homers and 43 RBIs in 69 games last year. He stayed around the team after he got hurt this April, making the most of Wrigley’s revamped home clubhouse and earning praise from manager Joe Maddon and his teammates for the way he attacked his rehab.

“It wouldn’t surprise me if he is ready,” Arrieta said. “It’s just in a moment like that, it’s different than working out and being in the training room and being a hundred percent there. Not that he can’t be a hundred percent, it’s just a little scary situation for me. But if he’s ready to go, having that bat, that’s hard to turn away if it’s ready.”

Cubs vs. Indians

Dueling droughts

By BEN WALKER

The Associated Press At long, long last, it’s true: Either the Cubs or Cleveland Indians will win the World Series.

The matchup between teams that forever waited till next year – next century, really – finally is here.

A classic Fall Classic, for sure.

Do-it-all Javy Baez, flashy Francisco Lindor, MVP-caliber Kris Bryant and a bevy of young stars. Lights-out relievers Andrew Miller and Aroldis Chapman, and wily skippers Joe Maddon and Terry Francona.

Plus, intrigue if injured All-Star starter Danny Salazar and slugger Kyle Schwarber can play.

Oh, and did someone mention something about a drought?

Game 1 is at Progressive Field on Tuesday night, with the Cubs opening as a heavy favorite to win their first crown since 1908.

In the Cubs’ last visit to Cleveland, in August 2015, they posted a 17-0 rout for the most-lopsided shutout ever in interleague play. It got so out of hand that two Indians outfielders wound up pitching.

But that’s ancient history.

For the Cubbies, this is their first World Series trip since 1945. They clinched their spot Saturday night at rollicking Wrigley Field as big-league ERA leader Kyle Hendricks outpitched Dodgers ace Clayton Kershaw for a 5-0 win in Game 6 of the NL Championship Series.

Favorites since Opening Day, the Cubs cruised to a major league-leading 103 victories, helped by Anthony Rizzo, Addison Russell and past October aces Jon Lester and John Lackey.

Now, they’re ready to sweep aside the Curse of the Billy Goat and the specter of Steve Bartman. And make up for the near-misses by Cubs greats such as Ernie Banks, Ron Santo and Billy Williams.

“Obviously, we know that it’s some-

by Boston and Toronto in the playoffs.

The Indians did it despite a thinning rotation. Salazar hasn’t pitched since early September because of a forearm problem, Carlos Carrasco’s hand was broken by a line drive and Trevor Bauer cut his pinkie playing with a drone.

Like the Cubs with Bartman, the spectator who infamously deflected a foul ball at Wrigley during the 2003 NL playoffs, the Indians also have a prominent fan. It’s John Adams, the man who has been beating a drum at most every home game for more than four decades.

Even though the clubs hold spring training about 30 miles apart in Arizona, they don’t overlap a lot.

They’ve never played in the postseason and are just 9-9 against each other in interleague action.

12 BLACKHAWKS

Toews hopes to build rapport with linemates

By MARK LAZERUS

mlazerus@suntimes.com CHICAGO – Jonathan Toews has had the best seat in the house to watch Artemi Panarin, Artem Anisimov and Patrick Kane toy with opponents over the past three games, racking up a combined seven goals and 10 assists in an emphatic reminder that the trio might just comprise the best line in hockey.

“They make it look easy,” Toews said. “When they get one or two, look out. They’re not stopping there. That’s when they’re just starting to feel it. It’s fun to watch.”

It’s fun to be on that line, too. Toews knows. Just a couple of years ago, he, Patrick Sharp and Marian Hossa formed arguably the most potent line in the league, skating circles around opponents, owning the puck, and setting up camp in the offensive zone. And when Brandon Saad was up there instead of Sharp, the line was just as dangerous.

But since last summer, when Saad was sent to Columbus and Sharp was shipped to Dallas, Toews has had an eclectic crew of wingers on his left, and now a new winger on his right. In a desperate and seemingly never-ending quest to find the right mix for his No. 1 center, coach Joel Quenneville has thrown anyone and everyone on the top line – from Marko Dano to Viktor Tikhonov to Ryan Garbutt to Teuvo Teravainen to Bryan Bickell to Andrew Shaw to Panarin to Vinnie Hinostroza to his latest left wing, rookie Tyler Motte. On his right, Toews now has Richard Panik – red-hot at the moment with a league-leading six goals through six games on just nine shots on goal – while Quenneville experiments with a new, more defensive-minded role for

Hossa.

Through it all, Toews has remained one of the game’s top two-way centers.

He still commands a shut-down line as well as anybody in the league, and he still managed to score 28 goals last season despite his motley crew of wingers.

But after years of Kane going through linemates like laundry, now it’s Toews who’s in search of chemistry and consistency.

“It’s huge,” Toews said. “You only get better and better when you start really understanding and really knowing everything [about your linemates]. It just becomes feel. … Sometimes you just have to go out there and let things happen, and use your instincts. That really kicks in with guys that you play with for

a long time.”

Through six games this season, Toews has no goals and two assists. But the latest incarnation of the Hawks’ top line – as unstoppable as the Anisimov line has been, whichever line has Toews in the middle has always been designated the Hawks’ “top line” – has been quite effective. Motte has scored with his two new linemates in each of the two games. And four of Panik’s goals have come with Toews on the ice.

Toews and Panik developed a nice rapport during the playoffs last spring, and it has carried over to the new season. The knock on Panik always has been his inconsistency, however, so he’ll need to prove the start isn’t a fluke before he’s permanently entrenched as

a top-liner.

So far, Toews like what he’s seen.

“He has all the tools,” Toews said.

“He can skate, he can hit, he can shoot.

[Last week] when he scored three goals [against Nashville], he wasn’t just scoring – he was skating well, he was running guys over, he was using his body, he was creating space. All those things that are tough to do every single night.

The biggest thing we’ve seen is that consistent focus, and that ability to deliver that. If he can bring that type of performance every night, then look out. He’s going to be one of the best in the league.

He’s got that raw ability, for sure.”

Of course, the left wing has been the bugaboo on that line. Motte doesn’t quite have the speed of a Sharp or a Saad, but he’s a sturdy body, strong on the puck, and plays the 200-foot game you have to in order to keep up with Toews. Saad said Friday that the key to playing with Toews is to work as hard as he does.

“The way he works and the way he competes, I think [the ideal left wing] is just someone to match that,” Saad said.

“They’ve tried a lot of different things, but the biggest thing is he’s got so much skill and so much competitive nature, you just try to match that intensity, and he’s going to find you. So find the open spots and try to read off of him.”

To that end, Toews has been in Motte’s ear, offering advice and constructive criticism after nearly every shift.

“When we get back to the bench, he’ll grab me and keep the communication flowing,” Motte said. “That’s how you build confidence, that’s how you build chemistry. You learn off each other and keep building off what we’ve done to this point. Know that you can always be better.”

BULLS

Wade, LeBron try to work out World Series wager

By JOE COWLEY

jcowley@suntimes.com CHICAGO – The negotiation is still pending.

After all, city pride doesn’t come cheap.

In one corner, the Chicago-born Dwyane Wade picking up the Cubs flag and waving it proudly. In the other?

Wade’s former teammate from their Miami days, turned icon now that he is back in his hometown of Cleveland in LeBron James.

And of course James is all about the Cleveland Indians, as the two cities are

headed for an epic showdown in the World Series beginning Tuesday.

“No, not yet,” Wade said Sunday when asked about the details of the upcoming wager with James. “We’ll get there, though.”

Not the only details Wade needs to work out leading up to the Fall Classic.

There’s also trying to land some tickets for when the series comes back to Wrigley Field, as Wade is about to find out exactly what kind of pull he has in his homecoming season.

“I’m trying to work my angles,” Wade said.

That included even volunteering

himself, Jimmy Butler and Rajon Rondo to handle the seventh-inning stretch duties that Scottie Pippen “butchered” the other night.

Either way, Wade said he picked a good time to join the Bulls as a free agent.

“Obviously, it’s huge for the city,” Wade said of the Cubs. “It’s been a long, long, long time, and just, obviously, I felt the buzz when I got back to the city, and everyone thinking that this was the Cubs’ year. And they’ve been obviously playing amazing, so it’s great.

“Cleveland has obviously had droughts in sports, and then [James]

went back there to change that drought from the standpoint of basketball, and they accomplished that [with the Cavaliers title run].

“They’re two franchises that have been struggling to get to the World Series, and this is what sports is about.

It’s cool.”

Wade wasn’t the only member of the Bulls franchise excited, either. Not exactly the kind of news board chairman Jerry Reinsdorf – who also holds the same position for the cross-town rival White Sox – needs to hear.

“All those Iowa guys, we’re Cubs fans,” coach Fred Hoiberg said.

BENGALS 31, BROWNS 17

At Cincinnati, A.J. Green’s one-handed catch in the middle of an end zone scrum highlighted Cincinnati’s day full of big plays.

Green’s 48-yard touchdown catch on the final play of the first half helped the Bengals (3-4) regain their footing in the injury-depleted AFC North. The defending division champions piled up their most points since they beat the Browns, 37-3, in December. Jeremy Hill had a 74yard touchdown run as part of his 168yard effort, the best by a Bengals running back in seven years.

The Browns (0-7) extended their worst start since 1999, when they were a first-year expansion team.

At Nashville, Andrew Luck threw a 7-yard touchdown pass to Jack Doyle with 1:55 left to put Indianapolis ahead to stay, and the Colts rallied to beat the Titans for their 10th straight win against their AFC South rival.

The Colts (3-4) came in having lost two of three, including blowing a 14-point lead in an overtime loss last week at Houston. But Luck improved to 8-0 against the Titans (3-4) with yet another comeback win. He finished with 353 yards passing and three TDs, the last after Tennessee went up 23-20.

JETS 24, RAVENS 16

At East Rutherford, New Jersey, Ryan Fitzpatrick replaced an injured Geno Smith and led the Jets on three scoring drives, and a rejuvenated defense came up with two rare interceptions.

Fitzpatrick came in for Smith in the second quarter and led the Jets on a goahead drive capped by a 13-yard touchdown catch by Matt Forte. Fitzpatrick finished 9 of 14 for 120 yards and a touchdown as the Jets (2-5) snapped a fourgame losing streak.

Baltimore (3-4) has lost four straight.

BUCCANEERS 34, 49ERS 17

At Santa Clara, California, Jameis Winston threw three touchdown passes, and Jacquizz Rodgers ran for 154 yards.

The Bucs (3-3) fell behind by 14 points early before scoring 27 straight to deal the Niners (1-6) their sixth straight loss for San Francisco’s longest losing streak since 2008.

The Associated Press TALLADEGA, Ala. – When an engine failure knocked title favorite Martin Truex Jr. from NASCAR’s playoffs, the rest of the top contenders got a little bit of breathing room.

Then Brad Keselowski suffered the same cruel elimination when his engine failed Sunday at Talladega Superspeedway.

There was suddenly a wide-open competition to earn the final transfer spots into the third round of the Chase, and Denny Hamlin and Austin Dillon raced a tense final two laps in overtime to fill the bracket. With each pushing for every last point, it was Hamlin who advanced into the round of eight on a tiebreaker over Dillon.

Joey Logano won at Talladega Superspeedway, and Hamlin edged Kurt Busch by .006 seconds for third place and the one point he needed to tie Dillon in the standings.

Dillon was ninth but lost the right to move into the next round based on average finish over the past three races.

Hamlin had told his Joe Gibbs Racing team not to give him points updates, and that lack of knowledge forced him to scramble through the final turn as he was undecided on how aggressive he needed to be.

“I wasn’t sure whether I needed to finish third,” he said.

“I told them I didn’t want points updates. But that’s almost when I probably should have got one to figure out what I was going to do. (Dillon) is in the middle of the pack. He’s fighting and getting positions. He could change two positions in the last hundred yards.

“So you can’t really predict it. I knew I just had to try to finish as good as I could.”

With Truex and Keselowski out of the playoffs before the checkered flag, the suspense came down to final finishing order. Logano was not in a must-win situation, but the victory sure didn’t hurt.

Dillon, on a frantic dash over two overtime laps to gain as many spots as possible, called the outcome “heartbreaking.”

SPORTS BRIEF Fire loses regular-season finale

TORONTO – Sebastian Giovinco had a goal and an assist and Toronto FC rallied to beat the Fire, 3-2, on Sunday.

Toronto missed out on a first-round playoff bye thanks to New York City FC’s home victory over Columbus.

Toronto will host the sixth-place Philadelphia Union in a knockout game Wednesday night.

Giovinco, last year’s MVP, finished the regular season with 17 goals and 15 assists in 28 games. Justin Morrow and Jonathan Osorio also scored for Toronto (14-9-11) Michael de Leeuw and John Goossens scored for the last-place Fire (7-17-10).

Shibutanis win dance, Japan’s Uno wins Skate America men’s

HOFFMAN ESTATES – Americans Maia Shibutani and Alex Shibutani won the ice dance title, while teammates Madison Hubbell and Zachary Donohue finished second Sunday at Skate America.

Japan’s Shoma Uno claimed the men’s championship earlier in the day, with

Americans Jason Brown and Adam Rippon finishing second and third in the opening event of the Grand Prix season.

The Shibutanis’ victory extends the United States’ streak of gold medals in ice dance at Skate America to eight; it has won 12 of the past 14.

Ashley Wagner won the women’s title Saturday , edging California training partner Mariah Bell.

Lewis Hamilton wins U.S. Grand Prix to stay in F1 title chase

AUSTIN, Texas – Lewis Hamilton got the victory he needed to keep his Formula One championship hopes alive. Now he needs more, and he needs Mercedes teammate and rival Nico Rosberg to make a mistake or have a bad race.

Hamilton won his fourth U.S. Grand Prix in five years Sunday, bolting from pole position and cruising to an easy victory that cut Rosberg’s lead to 26 points with three races left.

Rosberg still holds a relatively comfortable lead heading to next week’s race in Mexico City, where he won last year.
