Price of a dream: $1 each week for chance to win big Somewhere along the line, I convinced myself I am going to win the lottery, which is ridiculous, I know.

But for some months now, I have been playing the Illinois Lottery game Lotto. A dollar a week for a chance to win millions.

This isn’t the big game, Powerball, where you can win hundreds of millions dollars. That ticket costs $2 a shot, and it’s more than I’m willing to invest on a weekly basis. The chances of winning that game are like a gazillion to one, and I’ve pretty much given up on that one.

And, after all, what would you do with all that money? It’s more than I need.

But the Lotto prize is much smaller, from a couple of million dollars to $10 million or $12 million, a more modest amount, something more to my liking. I try not to be greedy. And the chances of winning that one are only a bazillion to one. Which, at one point, were the Cubs’ chances of winning the World Series, but those odds are closed this year.

I predict the Cubs will win the Series. I could be dead wrong, but I have a sense that this is the year all the curses come to an end, and 108 years of waiting will be over. But going into this, the odds were a bazillion to one against it, so anything can happen – in seven games.

But compared with the terrific amounts of money that Powerball offers, Lotto is small potatoes, and I’m good with small potatoes.

Just enough to live comfortably on. That’s not asking much, is it?

I haven’t come close to winning the Lotto.

The best I’ve done is match two numbers two or three times, which is good for a $1 prize, which I immediately invest in another Lotto ticket, and that makes me feel particularly lucky.

Playing the lottery is gambling, but I look at it more as an entertainment tax, and Lord knows the state can use all the revenue it can get. I’m just doing my part in hopes that I get my big payday, which also is taxed steeply. Although steeply is Illinois is relative, as Illinois is a flat-tax state. It’s the federal government that really dings you. I’m more than willing to pay the taxes, however, as I am one of the few people, it seems, who still believes in taxation.

We need governmental services, a whole host of them.

I’ve got a feeling I’m going to be playing the lottery a long time before my ticket comes up. I play the quick pick and let the computer decide what my numbers will be, figuring that the computer is as random as the lottery balls, and

VIEWS Dick Peterson their randomness at some point will meet with a winner. But I’ve been thinking about selecting some numbers and playing that number each week to cover my bases.

I’d have to come up with some sort of system to select the numbers. Birth dates, anniversary dates, portions of Social Security or telephone numbers, lucky numbers, my license plate.

Some combination that looks random but has special meaning. Which goes against the whole idea of the lottery balls being drawn randomly.

It would seem a series of six meaningful numbers to me never would come up.

That’s where luck comes into play. And winning the lottery is all about luck. So why not special numbers if they are random enough? A special number here, a special number there, and soon enough you have a completely random lottery ticket with hidden meaning. I’m already thinking of winning numbers.

I’m not sure what I would do if I actually won millions in the lottery. I’d probably lie low for a while, keeping the news to myself and my good wife and securing a safety deposit box at the bank to store the ticket until we had time to think about it.

I’d probably pay off that pesky student loan first. Then invest in new windows and siding for the house, although both of our bathrooms probably need some work first. Our older-model cars still get us around, so we’re good there for a while. We don’t really need a lot to get by.

The big question would be whether to quit working, and as tempting as that might be, the boredom factor enters into the picture. Vacations are fine, and not nearly long enough, but what would it be like not to have to work for years? Might get bored counting my millions.

So the verdict still is out on that.

But you can’t dream big if you don’t play.

And I’m hooked on one series of unlucky numbers after another. But it’s just a dollar, which is the stuff dreams are made of.

Cary-Grove Chamber’s Halloween Walk sees great turnout Saturday

By NATE LINHART

nlinhart@shawmedia.com CARY – With Halloween right around the corner, children dressed in superhero outfits, “Star Wars” gear and Pokemon attire walked around the Jewel Shopping Center in Cary on Saturday to collect candy from local businesses.

“We came here to bring the kids out to have fun and have good time with the community,” said Cary resident Nick Alimenti, who attended the event with his family.

Saturday’s Halloween-themed event was organized by the CaryGrove Area Chamber of Commerce, which had more than 40 Chamber members in attendance.

Chamber Executive Director Lynn Caccavallo said about 900 people showed up to Saturday’s trick-or-treating walk in Cary, about 300 more than last year.

“This event originally started in downtown Cary on Main Street, so this is our third year holding the event in front of the Jewel Shopping Center,” Caccavallo said.

“And every year, it just seems to be growing in numbers.”

Just one of the many local businesses handing out candy to children Saturday was Breaking Bread Catering & Deli.

“This is just a good community event where kids can come out and see small businesses,” said Teri Plazak, co-owner of Breaking Bread Catering & Deli.

“This is also a way for the small businesses to support the neighborhood,” Plazak said.

About an hour after the Cary walk was over, the Chamber hosted a second walk in Fox River Grove.

“So not only is this allowing people to meet Cary businesses, but Fox River Grove businesses as well,” Caccavallo said.

More than 400 people showed up for the Fox River Grove walk, making the total attendance about 1,300 people, Caccavallo said.

“Both were the biggest turnout we have had to date,” Caccavallo said.

Lake in the Hills gives Butcher on the Block video gaming license

Owners: Renovations are nearly complete

By HANNAH PROKOP

hprokop@shawmedia.com LAKE IN THE HILLS – Butcher on the Block owner Tom Yucuis said he never thought he’d have shopping carts in his butcher shop.

The business, at 4660 W. Algonquin Road, Lake in the Hills, is nearly finished with its expansion to the vacant property next door. At about 4,300 square feet, the place is more than double its former size and has space for customers to dine in, shop for groceries and play video gaming machines.

At its meeting Thursday, the Lake in the Hills Board of Trustees unanimously approved a video gaming license for the business, which has five video poker machines.

Jill Yucuis said that when her husband talked to customers about having video gaming, they loved the idea “because they don’t have to go into a bar environment to do it.”

She said the machines will help to pay off some of the costs from the renovation, and are in a separate room with an open doorway.

The final steps to complete the renovation are mostly aesthetic, Jill Yucuis said.

Reactions from customers have been positive, she said, and the store has ben-

“People can really come in and purchase pretty much anything that they want to make a meal,” she said.

After trustees voted to allow the license, Tom Yucuis thanked the board for helping him with the expansion. Earlier

in the year, the village had worked with Yucuis to provide economic incentives to help the business expand.

“I think we’re on the road to something that’s really going to be quite a fun journey for Lake in the Hills as we strive to get more business from other communities to come, and shop and spend their money in Lake in the Hills,” he said.

LITH police cracking down on drunken drivers NORTHWEST HERALD LAKE IN THE HILLS – Lake in the Hills police said they are cracking down on impaired drivers this Halloween with an aggressive Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over enforcement effort, and are warning all partygoers: Keep the party off the road.

“Driving while alcohol- or drug-impaired is deadly, it is illegal, and it will get you pulled over and arrested this Halloween,” said Sgt. Eric Decker, supervisor of the Lake in the Hills Traffic Unit.

“If you want to stay safe and out of jail this Halloween, make a plan to get home without driving if you’re impaired.”

In every state, it is illegal to drive with

a blood alcohol content of .08 or higher.

According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, in 2015, 10,625 people were killed in drunken driving crashes (crashes involving at least one driver with blood alcohol content of .08 or above) in the United States. Even drivers who are impaired and aren’t killed or seriously injured could end up paying $18,000 or more and lose their driving privileges for up to a year for just one DUI. The Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over enforcement campaign works to keep everyone safe on the roads, and Lake in the Hills Police urge residents to follow these simple tips: • Plan a safe way to get home before you attend the party.

• Designate a sober driver, take public transportation or a car service, or call a sober friend of family member to get home.

• Walking while impaired can be just as dangerous as driving impaired. Designate a sober friend to walk you home.

• If you see an impaired driver on the road, contact local law enforcement as soon as it is safe to do so.

• If you see someone you think is about to drive while impaired, take their keys and help them get home safely.

The law enforcement crackdown is made possible by federal traffic safety funds through the Illinois Department of Transportation STEP grant awarded to the Lake in the Hills Police Department.

Judy Laughlin is surrounded by flowers Wednesday in her newly opened flower shop, Wildrose Floral Design, in Cary.

Wildrose Floral Design opens on East Main Street in Cary

By HANNAH PROKOP

hprokop@shawmedia.com CARY – After about 25 years of driving by the house at 27 E. Main St. in Cary, Judy Laughlin never imagined she would open a floral design store there.

The longtime Cary resident always had a passion for flowers that started with her parents’ garden in Chicago.

“I used to go and visit flower shops in the city because I just loved it,” Laughlin said. “… I would just be peaceful. I knew I just loved it. I loved the scent. I loved everything about it, and I always have.”

Now Laughlin is able to spend the whole day in her own store, Wildrose Floral Design, named after the street she lives on. Tuesday was the business’s grand opening.

“I could work here 12 hours a day, and I can’t wait to come back tomorrow,” Laughlin said.

A variety of plants and bouquets fills the first floor. The second story has an open room that will host “wine and design,” floral classes and do-ityourself classes for brides and others

A collection of roses is seen Wednesday at the newly opened flower shop, Wildrose Floral Design, in Cary. looking to save money by arranging their own flowers.

Laughlin, who learned her skills starting about five years ago at the Chicago School of Flower Design, said she wanted to pass her tips along to others.

“They can just have a really great night, just fun, and not be afraid of flowers,” Laughlin said. “Because I think a lot of people think, ‘Oh flowers, they die.’ ” There’s also a consultation room for people looking to plan events such as weddings and funerals.

Judy Laughlin’s son, Patrick

Laughlin, said that when his mother is making arrangements, she is very conscious that they are a part of someone’s special day and in photographs for years.

“She always tries to make them different than anything anyone’s ever seen before,” Patrick Laughlin said.

There’s almost a mathematical process when arranging a bouquet, said Judy Laughlin, who has a background in finance and accounting. Arrangements need to have a balance of types of flowers, heights and colors.

“Sometimes, people don’t think about that,” she said.

When there are extra flowers from events, Judy Laughlin said, she wants to give back to the community by performing “random acts of flower” and donating them to people in the hospital or others in need.

Throughout the process of opening her first business, Judy Laughlin said, her family’s support has been her favorite part.

“We always taught our kids: Do what you love,” Judy Laughlin said. “… And so I finally took my own advice.”

ALGONQUIN – Community Unit School District 300 will bring in renowned composer Joni Greene on Wednesday to work with middle school students on a new song.

The new piece, “The Dawnland,” will debut Jan. 10 during a concert by the District 300 Honors Band at Dundee-Crown High School, 1500 Kings Road, Carpentersville.

The lessons are made possible by an $8,000 grant from the District 300 Foundation for Educational Excellence, allowing the District 300 Honors Band to hire Greene to help with the song and rehearsal process.

“Joni Greene was selected because of her unique compositional style,” District 300 music teacher Michael Kasper said.

“We wanted to give her the opportunity to take her unique style to a mid-

dle school level, being the first middle school group to commission a piece from her.”

“After speaking with Joni, I knew she would be the person for this experience,” Kasper said.

During Greene’s three-day visit, she will meet with eighth-grade students to get them ready to perform the composition’s world premiere. Because the completed work was sent to middle schools earlier in the year, Greene will begin the rehearsal process with each school Wednesday, starting with the Algonquin and Carpentersville middle schools.

“The artistic experience Joni has given our kids has been incredible, and we look forward to finishing the experience in January,” Kasper said.

LOCAL BRIEFS Crystal Lake library to forgive Fox River Grove to implement fines for donations to food pantry service to apply for overweight-, CRYSTAL LAKE – Racking up late fines oversize-vehicle permits from the Crystal Lake Public Library because you’re too embarrassed to turn in your overdue copy of “Fifty Shades of Grey”?

Biting the bullet and taking care of it can save you some money, and feed the hungry.

For the ninth straight year, the library is forgiving fines with an adequate monetary donation to the Crystal Lake Food Pantry. For a two-week amnesty period starting Monday and lasting until Nov. 14, the library will waive fines if at least half of the amount is donated to the pantry.

The food pantry, founded in 1982 by eight area churches, donated 717,751 pounds of food in 2014. It is partnering with the Crystal Lake Chamber of Commerce for its 26th annual Community Harvest, a fall drive for food and funding to help needy families eat through the winter.

The pantry is preparing to move soon from its current home at 257 King St. to a larger facility at 42 East St. For information, visit www.clfoodpantry.org.

- Kevin P. Craver

FOX RIVER GROVE – Starting Tuesday, the village of Fox River Grove will begin implementing a new process for securing overweight- and oversized-vehicle permits.

The village will use Oxcart Permit Systems, which allows users to obtain the permits for Algonquin Township, McHenry County and other nearby jurisdictions, according to a news release from the village.

The system provides substantial time savings for those looking to obtain permits in multiple locations, the release said.

People or companies registered will be able to request local permits, receive paperless permits that can be downloaded to a computer or mobile device, use an interactive map to assist in route selection and make payments.

Applications for overweight- or oversized-vehicle permits still will be accepted at Village Hall, 305 Illinois St., Fox River Grove.

Registration can be completed on Oxcart’s website at oxcartpermits.com.

10 ALGONQUIN

Village opposes opening liquor license for new café

By HANNAH PROKOP

hprokop@shawmedia.com ALGONQUIN – The Algonquin Village Board said “no” to a business plan for a café looking to serve alcohol and have video gaming terminals.

Mia’s Café planned to open at 4120 E. Lake Cook Road, in a strip mall owned by the Mandile family of Mandile’s Italian Restaurant Banquets and Catering.

Café owner Leslie Blanken planned to work with longtime friend Michael Mandile to prepare food for the cafe because she had no prior experience in the food service industry, the two told the Algonquin Committee of the Whole on Tuesday.

However, in a 6-1 vote, trustees and the village president opposed opening up a Class F liquor license for the business, saying it primarily would be a gaming shop instead of a café. In Illinois, if a business has a liquor license, it is able to apply for a video gaming license with the state.

“I am not for this,” Trustee Debby

Sosine said. “It’s not what we wanted to do when we set up our ordinances on video poker in this village, and I don’t think we should do it.”

Plans for the café included having about three TVs and 25 to 30 seats, with about five seats in a screened video gaming area, Blanken said. The menu included a mix of Italian-style salads, sandwiches and pizzas that would be provided by Mandile’s and cooked at Mia’s Café, which would not have a full kitchen.

“This is a café that’s going to have a small portion of it set aside in a small area to do video poker to take advantage of the law that allows businesses to do this,” said Trustee Robert Smith, who cast the sole “yes” vote.

Smith argued that it was important to help local business such as Mandile’s, which has been struggling to fill the corner space of its strip mall.

“We’re not looking to have a gambling hall,” Blanken said, echoing Smith’s statements.

Completed applications must be submitted by 12/31/16 to be eligible for this offer. This offer is applicable for new lines of credit only. Renewing lines of credit are not eligible. The Annual Percentage Rates (APRs) are accurate as of 9/15/16. The total term of the Home Equity Line of Credit (HELOC) is 240 months. During the first 10 years, the “Draw Period”, the APR is a variable rate based on an index of the highest Prime Rate reported in the Money Rates section of the Wall Street Journal (the “WSJ Prime”), plus a margin based on the amount of the line. However, for the first 12 months from the date of the loan there is an introductory rate of 2.99% APR which is not based on the index and margin used for later adjustments. For the remaining 9 years the terms will be as follows. On 9/15/16, the WSJ Prime Rate was 3.50% resulting in the following APRs: $10,000.00 - $99,999.99: 4.50% (Prime+1.00%), $100,000.00 - $249,999.99: 4.00% (Prime+.50%), $250,000.00 - $499,999.99: 4.00% (Prime + .50%), $500,000.00 + : 3.99% (Prime + .25%) based on a 3.99% floor. The APR may vary based on the use of auto-debit. Auto-debit discount will not apply during the introductory rate period or when APR is at floor rate during “Repayment Period.” The minimum APR is 3.99% and the maximum APR is 20.00%. Rates will change on the 1st day of the statement cycle following a Prime Rate change. Interest only minimum payments required during the Draw Period. During the “Repayment Period”, the remaining 10 years, the APR is a variable rate based on the WSJ Prime + 1.00% and will be calculated 45 days prior to the initial maturity of the Draw Period, subsequent changes will occur on the 1st day of the statement cycle following a Prime Rate change. The minimum APR is 3.99% and the maximum APR is 20.00%. During the Repayment Period, monthly principal and interest payments will be required to fully amortize the loan. There is an annual fee of $50, but will be waived for the first year. Offer applies to lines secured by owner occupied, one-to four-family residences with a maximum of 80% Loan to Value (LTV). Offer is not available for purchase money loans. Property insurance required and flood insurance may be required. Consult a tax advisor regarding the deductibility of interest. An early termination fee of the lesser of 2% of the initial credit limit or $500.00 will be charged if account is closed within 24 months of the loan date. No early termination fee in Wisconsin. There may be certain third party fees for entities such as appraisers, credit reporting firms, and government agencies to open the account, which generally total between $0.00 and $1,500.00. Pricing shown assumes borrower meets underwriting guidelines, otherwise a higher APR may apply or credit may not be available. See your loan officer for details. Offer subject to change without notice. Offer expires 12/31/16. 10/2016

“Your business may, your restaurant may. Go for it, open a restaurant, but the gaming doesn’t [add anything], and that’s where I have a real problem.”

After the meeting, Mandile and Blanken said they did not know whether they would come before the board again with a revised plan for the café.

“You can’t pick and choose when you don’t have options,” Mandile said, adding that businesses have not shown interest in the corner space that Mia’s Café was hoping to fill.

“You have to have a solution to a problem. We try to come up with a solution, and [the village] doesn’t have a better one.”

When Village President John Schmitt questioned Blanken’s approach to the business plan, she said gaming always had been part of the concept.

The village adopted an ordinance in April 2013 allowing video gaming, and it has 11 establishments with video gaming. Schmitt said he had a problem with any terminals because they don’t add to the family-oriented community.

“It doesn’t add anything to the village of Algonquin,” Schmitt said.

A snapshot of McHenry County history Photo provided by the McHenry County Historical Society

Photo provided

We don’t see peddlers from days of old on our streets anymore. Many of those hardworking people were immigrants from the Middle East and parts of Eastern Europe, but not exclusively. They emigrated because of poverty, lack of work and political upheaval at home. In the early 1900s, peddlers started branching out into city neighborhoods and suburbs. They sharpened scissors and knives, and provided other necessities for the household. Affluent residents of many municipalities wanted these traveling vendors banned because they were an “eyesore,” and referred them to as hucksters, hawkers and by other derogatory names. The presence of peddlers ebbed significantly in the 1950s and ’60s. ******** The drawing for the Heritage Quilters’ 2016 quilt, “Pieceful Garden,” will take place at about 3:30 p.m. Nov. 11 at the McHenry County Historical Society Museum in Union. Tickets are $1 each or six for $5 and are available by visiting www.gothistory.org or by calling the historical society office at 815-923-2267.

tendency has increased because of the impersonal nature of email. The telephone call requires action immediately, while email can be put off to another time and conveniently forgotten.

There is a recurring habit in the business community that has become an increasing irritant. That is, the lack of etiquette with the use of technology. This is so prevalent that the guru of doing all things right, Miss Emily Post, probably is rolling in her grave. This growing trend, I fear, has the end effect of damaging the professional image of those caught up in it.

More noticeable folks are as follows: The smartphone addict. We all have seen this person everywhere. They come to our committee meetings.

They sit on our boards. They attend our luncheons with us and even some networking events. We recognize them everywhere because a phone is attached to this addict’s hand or wires are coming out of their heads.

This person does not know how to live in the present. They have difficulty focusing on why they are where they are. Common responses from these folks are: “The speaker said what?”

“You invited me to where?” and “Surely, the board did not decide to go in that direction.”

Snow is just around the corner

LOCAL NEWS | Northwest Herald / NWHerald.com

Technology is meant to enhance the workplace, not detract from it.

Our tools are at our fingertips. That being said, we always want to present the best image to our peers, staff and clients. If people think we do not care about them because we are glued to technology, they will have a tough time referring us or, unfortunately, respecting our abilities. To repeat, first: At any meeting, networking event, client activity, put the cellphone away, turn it off and never, unless we have an emergency at hand, pick up that phone when it rings. No one wants to feel undervalued by our addiction to the phone. Second: Always give full attention to whoever is on the other side of our desk. Look at them directly in the eye and do not be tempted to glance at what is on the screen. Never ever try to finish a project on the computer while someone is trying to talk with us. Third: Respond to emails pertinent to our business. If we do not know an answer, deal with it as

we would in person. “Don’t know the answer – I will get back to you.” Then do so. We all need to exercise basic technology etiquette. We will stand out and be respected for making the effort.

• Coming up at the Chamber is the largest McHenry County networking activity of the season, the McHenry Area Chamber “Scramble.” This event Friday draws networkers from all over the north and northwest Chicago suburbs. New this year is a fourth course instead of the traditional three.

By IVAN MORENO

The Associated Press CHICAGO – State Rep. Michael McAuliffe is no stranger to being at the center of a power struggle that could define the future of Illinois.

Twenty years ago, the only Republican lawmaker in Chicago had just taken over his late father’s district when he found himself targeted by Democrats fighting to regain the majority they’d lost two years before. That November, Democrats won back the majority they’ve held ever since, and McAuliffe got a taste of the attention he faces again this year in a fight raging from St. Louis’ Metro East suburbs to Kankakee to Chicago’s Northwest Side.

“We knew this was going to be a battleground,” McAuliffe said.

This year, the political clash in Illinois pits the nation’s longest-serving state House speaker, Michael Madigan, against first-term Republican Gov. Bruce Rauner, who is using his vast wealth to fund GOP candidates in an effort to diminish the supermajorities that Democrats have held in the Illinois Legislature since 2013. The two years that House Democrats were in the minority in the mid-1990s marked

Michelle Obama: ‘Beyond proud’ at U.S. Navy sub ceremony

GROTON, Conn. – First lady Michelle Obama said she was “beyond proud” to take part in a commissioning ceremony Saturday for the U.S. Navy attack submarine named for her home state of Illinois.

The submarine officially became the USS Illinois, SSN 786, and began active service at a ceremony at the submarine base in Groton, Connecticut.

Mrs. Obama, the ship sponsor, gave the order to “man our ship and bring her to life” before the crew of about 130 men ran onto the vessel.

“Thank you for giving me the incredible privilege of being associated with you and with

For Republicans, getting majorities in either chamber will be difficult because Democrats have built large leads: 71-47 in the House, and 39-20 in the Senate. But decreasing the Democrats’ numbers can increase Rauner’s bargaining power to get policy changes he wants, including weakening the influence of unions and passing business-friendly legislation as conditions for him to sign off on the state’s first full budget since spring 2014.

If Democrats increase their numbers, however, they could dictate the remainder of Rauner’s term by crafting the budget they want without the gov-

The first lady, who is from Chicago, has made supporting military families a priority.

She is considered an honorary member of the crew and will be involved in the lives of the sub’s sailors and families.

It will be about two more years before the USS Illinois’ first deployment as it undergoes additional testing and certification for its maiden deployment.

The shootings from Friday afternoon to early Saturday happened in some of Chicago’s most violent neighborhoods on the city’s South and West sides.

Police said the 14-year-old boy was standing on a street in the South Austin neighborhood when someone in a car began shooting about 1:20 a.m.

Daniel Beiser and his Republican challenger, Michael Babcock.

That’s only a glimpse of the millions of dollars that both parties are investing in about a dozen competitive races across the state. But McAuliffe’s race is particularly important to both parties: Thanks in part to the governor’s personal wealth, Republicans have spent more than $2.6 million in TV ads for McAuliffe – the most in any statehouse race in the U.S. this year, according to figures compiled by the Center for Public Integrity.

During his first closely watched campaign 20 years ago, McAuliffe said, he thought it novel that TV ads ran on cable. Today, Rauner’s donations to legislative races has made this election cycle like no other in Illinois history.

The GOP is outspending Democrats for the first time in recent memory, forcing them to raise more money to keep up with the nearly $21 million that Rauner has given to the Illinois Republican Party committee for races this year. Rauner has contributed another $12 million to Republican House leader Jim Durkin and $1 million to Comptroller Leslie Munger, and they’ve funneled some of those funds into races as well.

Officer James Brockmeyer joined the Chester Police Department about 10 months ago, the Belleville News-Democrat reported. He died about 10 p.m.

Friday after his squad car left the roadway and flipped in rural Randolph County, about 2 miles north of Chester.

Randolph County State’s Attorney Jeremy Walker said an arrest warrant has been issued for Jason Michael Stoker, 34, of Chester, on a charge of aggravated fleeing and eluding. They said he was driving a red 2006 Pontiac G6.

Police Chief Ryan Coffey called Brockmeyer “dedicated and a true professional” and said he also was a volunteer firefighter.

Coffey said investigators believe Stoker is on the run or hiding.

Fire destroys historic ballroom in suburban Chicago

WILLOW SPRINGS – Authorities are investigating a fire that destroyed a historic suburban Chicago ballroom that hosted performers including Count Basie, Guy Lombardo and Artie Shaw during the Big Band era.

Willow Springs Fire Chief David Niemeyer said the fire at the Willowbrook Ballroom was reported about 2 p.m. Friday. No one was injured.

Niemeyer said the building is a total loss and that firefighters had a difficult time putting out the blaze because poor water supply and the building’s older architecture.

This is the second time the ballroom was destroyed at the same location. The building was rebuilt after a fire in 1930, and it still hosted dances with live orchestras. The ballroom marked its 90th birthday in August.

‘Unprecedented’ new FBI review criticized by Clinton

By JULIE PACE and KEN THOMAS The Associated Press

DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. – Hillary Clinton lashed out Saturday at the FBI’s handling of a new email review, leading a chorus of Democratic leaders who declared the bureau’s actions just days before the election “unprecedented” and “deeply troubling.” Emboldened Republican rival Donald Trump seized on the reignited email controversy, hoping to raise new doubts about Clinton’s trustworthiness.

Rallying supporters in Florida, Clinton pressed FBI Director James Comey to put out the “full and complete facts” about the review into a cache of recently discovered emails.

Clinton backers panned Comey’s letter to Congress about the new emails as severely lacking crucial details.

“It is pretty strange to put something like that out with such little information right before an election,” Clinton said. She accused Trump of using the issue to confuse and mislead voters in the final leg of the campaign for the Nov. 8 election.

The controversy over Clinton’s email practices at the State Department has dogged her for more than a year. The former secretary of state often has been reluctant to weigh in on the matter – and defensive when she’s been pushed to do so.

But Clinton’s approach to this latest flareup is markedly different, underscoring worries that the matter could damage her standing with voters in the election’s final days.

Clinton advisers have been rallying Democratic lawmakers and other supporters to her defense, including members of the Congressional Black Caucus.

Earlier Saturday, Clinton campaign chairman John Podesta said there was “no evidence of wrongdoing” in the new email review and “no indication this is even about Hillary.”

But Comey, who enraged Republicans in the summer when he announced the FBI would not prosecute Clinton for her loose handling of official email, in fact said the new trove appeared to be “pertinent” to the Clinton email investigation. He did not explain how.

A government official told The Associated Press on Saturday that the Justice Department had advised the FBI against telling Congress about the new developments in the Clinton investigation because of the potential fallout so close to the election. The official was not authorized to speak publicly about the matter and discussed it on the condition of anonymity.

Justice officials concluded the letter would be inconsistent with department policy that directs against investigative actions that could be seen as affecting an election or helping a particular candidate, the official said.

Landing with a thud, the email issue again threatened to undermine an advantage built

by Clinton, the Democratic nominee, over Trump and raised the possibility that the Republican might be able to seize late momentum.

Trump told a crowd in Golden, Colorado, on Saturday that the FBI’s review of Clinton email practices raises “everybody’s deepest hope that justice, as last, can be properly delivered.” His crowd cheered Clinton’s email woes, which Trump has taken to calling the biggest political scandal since Watergate.

The FBI is looking into whether there was classified information on a device belonging to Anthony Weiner, the disgraced ex-congressman who is separated from longtime Clinton aide Huma Abedin. Comey, in his letter to Congress on Friday, said the FBI had recently come upon new emails while pursuing an unrelated case and was reviewing whether they were classified.

A person familiar with the investigation, who lacked authority to discuss the matter publicly and insisted on anonymity, said the device that appears to be at the center of the new review was not a computer Weiner shared with Abedin.

As a result, it was not a device searched for work-related emails at the time of the initial investigation. The person said “this is news to [Abedin]” that her emails would be on a computer belonging to her husband.

The person added that if the emails included those related to Abedin’s work with Clinton at the State Department, they are expected to be duplicates of what she had already turned over as part of the initial investigation.

WASHINGTON – The race for control of the Senate is tearing toward its finale on a last-minute burst of cash from both sides, with a half-dozen top races essentially tied.

The outcomes of those contests, in states from Nevada to Missouri to New Hampshire, will determine which party can claim the Senate majority next year. The late-breaking news of a renewed FBI investigation related to Hillary Clinton’s emails has the potential to shift the campaigns in favor of the GOP in their final days.

Republicans have been fretting about the possibility that the tossup races will break against them on Nov. 8. History shows that close races tend to move one way as a group. In 2014, Republicans won a swath of Senate races and took back control of the chamber from the Democrats.

This time, with Donald Trump at the top of the GOP ticket and inflaming divisions within the party, the concern was that the leading races would all go for Democrats.

In addition to Nevada, Missouri and New Hampshire, the other close

contests are in Pennsylvania, North Carolina and Indiana.

Except for Nevada, where there’s an open seat with the retirement of Senate Democratic leader Harry Reid, all are Republican-held seats that Democrats are trying to win as they aim to pick up the five seats needed to wrest the Senate majority from the GOP. If Democrat Hillary Clinton wins the White House, Democrats need to pick up four Senate seats because Tim Kaine, as vice president, would cast tie-breaking votes in a 50-50 Senate.

With news Friday of the FBI investigation, Republicans expressed hope that the races could break their way.

“Every Democrat has willingly tied themselves to Hillary Clinton with seemingly no reservations whatsoever – and there’s no getting away from her now,” said Ian Prior, spokesman for the Senate Leadership Fund, a super political action committee allied with Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell. “If this ends up tightening the presidential by even a few points, it could definitely make a difference in Senate races.”

Top races have accumulated huge price tags already, with millions more still to be spent in the final days.

Fall is a great time to plant!

OUR VIEW

Get informed, plan to vote There are now just nine days left until Nov. 8, otherwise known this year as Election Day. But you don’t have to wait until Nov. 8 to cast your ballot. You can vote any weekday as well as Saturday and Monday, Nov. 7, at 10 locations throughout McHenry County. Some locations include Sunday early voting.

The 10 locations where you can For the record vote early are: the McHenry County AdDo your research before you ministration Buildvote. While the presidential ing in Woodstock; race has dominated this year’s Algonquin Township election cycle, there are plenty offices in Crystal of other important races on Lake; the Crystal the ballot that deserve your Lake Municipal attention.

Complex; the Huntley Park District office; Village Hall in Lake in the Hills; McHenry City Hall; McHenry Township offices in Johnsburg; Nunda Township offices in Crystal Lake; Dunham Township office in Harvard; and Marengo City Hall.

For times and addresses, visit the McHenry County Clerk’s website.

All this means you have no excuse for not voting in this year’s election. Gone are the days when ballots could just be cast on Election Day; there is no reason everyone can’t do their civic duty.

We do offer this caveat, however: Do your research before you vote. While the presidential race has dominated this year’s election cycle, there are plenty of other important races on the ballot that deserve your attention.

Locally, the race for McHenry County Board chairman has grabbed the most headlines. There also are contested races for state’s attorney, clerk, all six County Board districts, two state House and state Senate districts; two Congressional districts, U.S. Senate and more. There also are a number of referendums on the ballot, depending on where you live.

Many of these local contests may have a larger effect on your everyday life than who winds up being president.

The Northwest Herald sent candidates in all area contested races questionnaires. Their responses as well as our archived stories on all of the races can be found at www.nwherald.com/ election-central. Candidates have websites and Facebook pages where you can learn more about them.

Make a commitment this year to make sure your voice is heard. Just make sure it’s informed.

THE FIRST

AMENDMENT

ANOTHER VIEW

If Clinton wins, Obama should withdraw nominee As we noted last week, the U.S. Supreme Court remains in a precarious position because Republican senators refuse to hold a confirmation vote on President Barrack Obama’s nominee to fill a vacancy on the court. Nearly seven months have passed since Obama nominated Merrick Garland to the seat left open by the death of Justice Antonin Scalia.

If Hillary Clinton defeats Donald Trump on Election Day, he should withdraw Garland’s nomination.

There are two possible outcomes on Nov. 8: Either Clinton or Trump will win the presidency.

Sure, there are other candidates, but none has a real shot at victory.

(There is a third possible outcome of the election, but it is too frightening to contemplate – a disputed election that lands in front of the Supreme Court, which is evenly divided between justices appointed by Republican and Democratic presidents.)

If Trump becomes president-elect, there is zero chance Republican senators will confirm Garland during the lame-duck session. Their line all along – and it was just a line – has been that the next president should get to choose Scalia’s replacement, and the people should have a say by way of the election. Let President Trump choose.

Suppose, instead, Clinton wins.

Here, things get more interesting.

Republicans could stick to their guns and not confirm Garland, giving Clinton a chance to nominate a justice on her first day.

Garland is a centrist judge who thrilled few progressives. For example, he tends to fall on the lawand-order side of criminal cases.

Indeed, Republicans, at least before he was nominated, identified him as the sort of consensus pick they could get behind.

At 64, he also is relatively old for a Supreme Court appointment. Presidents tend to choose

judges in their 50s for lifetime appointment to the court so they could shape jurisprudence for a generation.

Progressive disappointment, however, is good reason for Republicans to confirm Garland if Clinton wins. Better the moderate who will serve less time on the court than whomever Clinton might nominate.

Obama should deny them that opportunity. If Republicans have been cravenly political in preventing a confirmation vote, Obama certainly injected his share of political gamesmanship in picking Garland in the first place. He dared Republicans to reject someone they once supported, proving they are obstructionists in an election year.

He’s made his point. Now, if polls are to be believed, Obama should let the next president choose someone younger and more progressive.

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

Bartman for District 6

To the Editor: I have known John Bartman for many years and watched him farm and market his crops. I watched his excellent business judgment, his generosity to the needy, his service on the Farm Bureau Board and his efforts on behalf of IDOT, where he pioneered the use of energy crops along the ROW for highways in Illinois. He also worked with local governments to secure funding for infrastructure, such as the Weber Grill expansion.

He works hard, has lived in Marengo his entire life, blends public and private experience and as our state representative for the 63rd District will help to resolve Illinois’ serious budget problems. As a businessman and a Republican, John has my full support.

Vote early to avoid Election Day problems at voting booths

To the Editor: For the first time in many years, I will not be serving as an election judge, due to the numerous problems that occurred during the primary election in McHenry County. I have always felt it a privilege to aid voters. I personally believe voting is not only a right but a duty. At this time, I feel I can best aid voters by recommending everyone vote early.

Local races have real impact

To the Editor: There are many issues with the Nov. 8 election. On top is the presidential election, but I would like to discuss the people who will have a real impact on your future and that of your communities.

Algonquin and Lake in the Hills have an opportunity to elect County Board members and a County Board chairman who are fiscally conservative, intelligent and, most importantly, not political hacks.

They will work together to lower taxes, improve transportation in the region and bring badly needed commerce into our area. Jack Franks as chairman, Paula Yensen and Mike Scala in District 5, and Kerry Barber and Yvonne Barnes in District 1 have concrete goals to accomplish these improvements.

Government is successful if intelligent and conscientious people work together to solve problems and make life better for their constituents. These five will do just that, and I implore you to vote for them in your districts.

HOW TO SOUND OFF We welcome original letters on public issues. Letters must include the author’s full name, home address and day and evening telephone numbers.

Lawmakers ignore amendments

Teacher should be fired

To the Editor: Concerning your article about the Prairie Ridge teacher on Oct. 25, Mr. Walker says he wants his students to hear both sides. The only point of view Mr. Walker is showing is his own. His job is not to influence students to his political beliefs.

He even wants his students to show the video to their parents. Apparently Mr. Walker doesn’t think their parents can think for themselves. How can anyone be as intelligent as a school teacher, right? Mr. Walker is on paid leave, but he deserves to be fired. However, I’m sure his union will make that impossible. Mr. Walker sits outside the school in protest like the spoiled brat he is. He receives $131,000 a year and three months’ paid vacation.

As a farmer, Bartman influenced only by the weather

To the Editor: In a recent article, John Bartman, a candidate for state representative in District 63, was described as being under the influence of others. John is a farmer, and a good one. The big influences in his life are the sun, the rain and the temperature during the crop growing season. He will work for all of us if you give him your vote. He is not an attorney going downstate to spend a few years with all the other officials waiting to retire. He actually wants to solve Illinois’ problems. We can only hope there will be enough others who share this sentiment.

us. The power of incumbency allows them to be less accountable to us after every election. Illinois is one of only 13 states that does not have any form of term limits. Illinois is a great state with great people, plentiful farm land, natural transportation hubs and world-class colleges. With all these assets, most of our problems are political. The entrenched State House leaders have ignored our wishes too long. What is the first step to turning around Illinois? First we must enact term limits, then reform our redistricting maps and eliminate pensions for politicians. As a candidate for state representative, these are my goals.

New library a want; reduced taxes a need

To the Editor: According to Realtor Magazine, Illinois has the highest median property tax rate in the nation. Information distributed to Crystal Lake residents indicate voting yes on the library referendum will increase your taxes $132 a year for the owner of a $200,000 home. This is a 47 percent increase, as the owner of this $200,000 home already is paying $278 annually.

Unfortunately, this will be only the beginning. Annual property tax rates continue to increase. The Chicago Tribune reported McHenry County has the highest median tax rate of surrounding counties. As a result, residents of McHenry County find themselves living in the highest property taxed state in the nation, and in the highest taxing county in the area.

Our officials should be identifying ways to decrease our substantial and growing tax burden, not increasing it. A new library is a want. Reduced taxes are a need.

Wal-Mart, Target each take cue from the other for holidays

By ANNE D’INNOCENZIO The Associated Press

NEW YORK – Wal-Mart and Target are each taking a cue from the other this holiday season.

After years of emphasizing low prices, Wal-Mart wants to up the ante, but it also wants to be known for top customer service. Target, which has a better image in that regard, has stressed a focus on offering deals. The shift underscores how traditional retailers have to perfect every aspect of their operations as shoppers who could easily shop online instead become more demanding about price, selection and service. With online leader Amazon.com cementing customers with its juggernaut Amazon Prime shipping service, retailers like Target and Wal-Mart need to offer more exclusive merchandise.

Heading into the critical holiday shopping season, Wal-Mart has the momentum. The Bentonville, Arkansas-based company raised its profit outlook in August after reporting its eighth consecutive quarterly increase in a key revenue measure. Target had cut its profit forecast as customer traffic fell for the first time in a year and a half during the second quarter. “Wal-Mart has been benefiting from better service and for this holiday season, it should be a boon,” said Ken Perkins, president of research firm Retail Metrics LLC. “I expect Wal-Mart will outpace Target.

Target has a big price hurdle.”

Wal-Mart may be known for its every day low prices but this holiday season it wants to be known for service, too. to raise wages and increase training for hourly workers has helped. For the end of the year, the world’s largest retailer plans to deploy “holiday helpers” stationed at the checkouts, who can direct customers to registers with shorter lines or even run back to the aisles to pick up an item someone forgot.

It’s adding staff to handle customers picking up online orders at the stores, and designating a manager for that area. The goal: To make sure shoppers have an easy experience when they come to collect their orders.

“We want to serve the customer as they want to be served,” Wal-Mart’s

Chief Operating Officer Judith McKenna, said at a store in Teterboro, New Jersey, on Wednesday.

For service, Target is also focusing on making online ordering and pickups easier. Starting Nov. 1, it’ll have 1,106 stores that will ship directly to online shoppers, double the current number.

That should speed up delivery, and Target will be able to fulfill more orders.

Online shoppers also can pick up their orders at all of Target’s stores.

ON PRICE

Wal-Mart promises to be even more aggressive on prices. It similarly plans

to offer more consistent pricing, instead of shorter-term deals. For example, a Roku 32-inch HDTV that was priced at $125 last year during a Black Friday sale will have the same price all season this year.

Target, which has acknowledged that it failed to deliver on the second part of its “Expect More, Pay Less” slogan, say about 60 percent of its marketing message this holiday season will be about value, up about 20 percent from last year. The retailer is repeating some of last year’s promotions but also adding new ones aimed at getting shoppers to more areas of the store.

Dear Dave: My husband owns a small landscaping and masonry company. His profits over the past couple of years have been about $80,000 annually. We were wondering if we should be setting aside some retained earnings. – Kim Dear Kim: Yes, all businesses should have retained earnings.

In the personal finance world, we would call that an emergency fund.

It can be difficult in the business world sometimes though. You’re talking about running a business, making a profit, feeding your family, and saving money in the business.

This isn’t an easy process no matter how long you’ve been in business.

One way to solve the problem, though, is to take a percentage of your profits at the end of the month and set it aside for retained earnings first. Do this before you take any profits home or distribute them under a profit-sharing plan. It doesn’t have to be a big percentage, but you should be setting money aside every month for the company.

The beauty of doing this is you’ll have money sitting there to replace equipment and other expenditures down the road. Just remember that it’s all taxable. Whether you’re in an LLC, Sub S Corp or sole proprietorship, any money you make as profit – whether you take it home or not – is taxable. So your retained earnings may be saved, but they will be reduced by the taxes on it each year.

Anything you do in business requires money, and to avoid going into debt you’re going to need retained earnings. Good question, Kim! Dear Dave: I’m about to turn in my two-week notice after 17 years with my company. It’s a small business, and everyone is like family, but the last raise I received was 50 cents and that was 10 years ago. I’ve always

DAVE SAYS Dave Ramsey worked hard and done my job well, but I need to move on to a better-paying position I’ve found. Do you have any advice on how to handle this situation? – JT Dear JT: Leaving people you care about is always hard. It sounds like they could have treated you better in terms of financial compensation, but things might have been just too tight. Regardless, this is a situation where you have to put yourself and your family first.

First, accentuate the positive. Let them know that your time there has been like working with family and you appreciate everything they’ve done for you. If they ask you why you’re leaving, be honest but kind.

Let them know that your income wasn’t changing for the better, and you have to take another position with better pay. Let them know, too, that you fully intend to honor your two-week notice unless they would rather you didn’t.

It does no good to throw stones over your shoulder as you leave, JT. That kind of thing says more about you than it does about them. So just show a lot of gratitude and kindness.

It’s going to be a tough situation emotionally for all concerned, so do your best to make it professional, honest and friendly.

Cancer survivors dispute ‘PREvivor’s place at relay Dear Abby: This is in response to “Conflicted in California” (March 20), whose co-worker walks the “survivors’ lap” in Relay for Life events. Her co-worker is what we call a “PREvivor,” someone who took steps to lessen his or her chances of developing cancer. For other co-workers to belittle her for walking this lap is just plain mean. As a survivor, I have no problem with a previvor walking the lap. – Diane In New Hampshire Dear Diane: In your letter, you made reference to “previvors.” This is a term I was unfamiliar with. After doing some research, I found the following information on the site of Facing Our Risk of Cancer Empowered (FORCE). It reads: “Cancer previvors are individuals who are survivors of a predisposition to cancer but haven’t had the disease.

The group includes people who carry a hereditary mutation, family history or

DEAR ABBY Jeanne Phillips some other predisposing factor. ... The term specifically applies to the portion of our community that has its own unique needs and concerns separate from the general population, but different from those already diagnosed with cancer.”

Some of the letters my office received were vehemently against “Conflicted’s” co-worker participating in the survivors’ lap. Read on for more reader comments: Dear Abby: The co-worker walking the survivor lap is a fraud. I am a two-time cancer survivor currently going through a round of chemotherapy. I call foul!

She had a genetic threat of cancer, but has not had it. She hasn’t heard those

horrible words confirming her worst fears. She hasn’t felt the pain of a chemical cocktail shot into her veins, which can only be described as Drano mixed with napalm. She hasn’t watched her hair fall out or seen her skin burned and charred from treatment. She chose elective surgery based on genetic markers.

If she wants to participate in Relay for Life, there is a caregiver lap and other activities. She may have gone through pain and grief, but she is no survivor. –

Survivor In The South Dear Abby: It’s sad this has become

a case of whose cancer was worse and a judgment of who can or should walk the lap. Just let her walk. I once was invited to walk the survivor lap and a “friend” came up and asked me point blank, “Why are you here? You only had thyroid cancer, not breast cancer!”

I responded I didn’t realize cancer was a

contest, and I walked the lap. – Let It Be Dear Abby: How do I fight feelings of jealousy? I don’t want to sulk over what other people have and I don’t. I just want to live my life being unaffected by other people’s riches, fertility and happiness.

Any tips would be appreciated. – Jealous

In Colorado Dear Jealous: Nobody has everything

or a life that’s completely problem-free.

A way to minimize jealousy would be to be grateful for the positive things you do have going for you. Quietly list them in your mind before going to sleep at night, and again in the morning before getting out of bed. If you do, it will set the tone for your day and help you to keep the green-eyed monster at bay.

Beams don’t obstruct dreams Fans: There are no bad seats for World Series at Wrigley

CHICAGO – Brooke Jones lifted her gaze and marveled at the beauty of Wrigley Field in October.

“There’s really not a bad seat in the house,” Jones said with a smile.

Not even Jones’ seat, which was squarely VIEWS behind a giant steel support beam down the Tom Musick left-field line.

The 31-year-old Warren resident and her sister, Lindsey, decided that an obstructed view in the stadium was far better than an unobstructed view on their couch.

“I don’t care, I’ll lean to the side,” Lindsey Jones said. “I’ll go stand in the aisle. This is like a dream.”

A dream with a beam.

Wrigley Field is pretty old. Maybe you have heard. And part of the way to keep a 102-year-old facility standing is to rely on about two-dozen steel beams that prop the upper deck and the roof.

The problem with beams is that they are not invisible.

Foul poles are nice and skinny, like pieces of yellow string. Support beams are what foul poles might look like if they received a coat of white paint and had a yearlong pass to an all-you-can eat buffet.

But if you think fans who shelled out big money to sit behind beams for Game 4 of the World Series were upset, well, let’s see, how can I put this?

No. “I can’t see the pitcher, but I can see the hitter and I can see the rest of the field,” said Tim Utz, 43, of Hanover, Pennsylvania. “I can put two and two together. I’m OK with this pillar being here – because I’m here.”

The Cubs do not try to trick their fans. They clearly label “obstructed view” on tickets behind the beams.

Fans who are on the fence about sitting behind a pole can go online to search for seat views.

That was Michael Levy’s strategy.

The 29-year-old from Indianapolis searched Google Images, SeatGeek and

AP photo

Fans make their way to their seats Saturday at Wrigley Field before Game 4 of the World Series between the Indians and the Cubs.

World Series Cubs vs. Indians (Best-of-7; x-if necessary) All games televised by FOX Game 1 Indians 6, Cubs 0 Game 2 Cubs 5, Indians 1 Game 3 Indians 1, Cubs 0 Game 4 Indians 7, Cubs 2 Game 5: Sunday Indians (Bauer 12-8) at Cubs (Lester 19-5), 7:15 p.m.

Game 6: Tuesday-x Cubs at Indians, 7:08 p.m.

Game 7: Wednesday-x Cubs at Indians, 7:08 p.m. other websites before committing to his seat behind a beam in Section 218.

“I can lean left and see everything,” Levy said. “It’s better than I expected.

I kept thinking to myself, ‘Yeah, it would be cool to watch on TV, but who cares? It’s all about the atmosphere.’ ” Which was electric.

As Cubs batters strolled to home

plate, fans danced and sang along to the walkup music. Groundball singles drew standing ovations. When Dexter Fowler scored the game’s first run, the upper deck swayed.

Would you expect anything less?

Cubs fans have yearned for 71 years to see the World Series return to the North Side. They have longed for 108 years to witness a championship. An obstructed view is not going to spoil anyone’s moment.

Zach Kuhn of Plainfield won a lottery on the team’s website for an opportunity to buy his ticket behind a beam down the right-field line in Section 240. He learned about his good fortune last Sunday.

“I read the email and thought it was fake,” Kuhn said. “I was sure it was fake.”

It was real.

“I have been to Wrigley probably 50 or 60 times in my life, and this is just completely surreal,” said Kuhn, 37. “I knew it was going to be an obstructed view. I can see all three bases. I can see the pitchers’ mound. I can see all the way into the left-field corner. I can’t see anything in the right-field corner. If I tilt my head a little bit, I can see behind home plate, but I can’t

actually see home plate.”

Kuhn was not complaining, merely stating facts.

“I would sit anywhere in this place,” he said. “I’d sit on top of the Budweiser sign.”

Sounds like a marketing opportunity for the Cubs.

Some fans’ obstructed views had nothing to do with beams. Jason Aberli of Louisville, Kentucky, paid $2,000 apiece for a pair of standing-room-only tickets in the back row beneath the upper deck. He and his wife, Jessica, had no problems with glancing around fans who walked in the aisle in front of them.

“I truly believe we will see everything we need to see,” Jessica Aberli said with a grin.

Jason Aberli agreed. As a boy, he said, he literally would sprint home from his bus stop so he could watch the Cubs’ day games on WGN-TV. Now 39, his speed has diminished, but his passion has not.

“I got chills when I walked in,” Jason Aberli said. “This is unbelievable.

There’s no way I would miss this.”

World Series party turns somber Mayor forms bond with Tom Ricketts

By GORDON WITTENMYER

By GORDON WITTENMYER

CHICAGO – After 71 years of anticipation, it took two nights of strange and unfamiliar emotions at Wrigley Field to be reduced to a much more familiar feeling around here.

Wait till next year.

The Cubs weren’t officially eliminated Saturday night in their first World Series since 1945, but the weekend party in the streets outside Wrigley Field was turned into a Sunday morning hangover by Corey Kluber and the Indians after their 7-2 Game 4 victory over the Cubs.

Kluber pitched six shutdown innings against the Cubs for the second time in five days, giving the Indians a 3-1 lead in the best-of-seven series and pushing the Cubs to the brink of elimination for the first time this postseason.

And putting Cleveland on the brink of becoming Titletown 2016 with the Indians’ first World Seires title since 1948 – four months after the Cavaliers won their first-ever NBA title.

A young Cubs team that has looked all but lost at the plate since the Series shifted to Wrigley Field on Friday night leans hard on its postseason ace, Jon Lester, to keep its season alive Sunday night and send it back to Cleveland.

“We made mistakes tonight,” Cubs manager Joe Maddon said, referring to a pair of throwing errors by third baseman Kris Bryant and an awkward throw by pitcher Mike Montgomery.

“That was part of it. But then again, we have to do more offensively to give ourselves a chance.”

The Cubs are 6-15 in franchise history when facing elimination in the postseason,

CHICAGO – Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel, who once slammed the door on public stadium funding for the Cubs over anti-Obama attack ad plans by Ricketts family members, lauded the work the Cubs’ family ownership has done in the city and with the team since that flap during the 2012 election cycle.

Emanuel, a friend and former chief of staff for President Barack Obama, even laughed off the latest political machinations of conservative family patriarch Joe Ricketts and son Todd Ricketts involving millions in financial support for presidential candidate Donald Trump – after the family spent millions against Trump, prompting Twitter attacks from Trump.

“I’ve got two brothers, OK? Family,” Emanuel said before taking in Game 4 of the Cubs’ first World Series since 1945. “What do you want – I’m supposed to say something about (team chairman) Tom (Ricketts)?

It’s family. I have to be responsible for everything Ari says or Zeke says? That’s family! All right?”

Emanuel appears to have built a strong relationship with the Cubs and Tom Ricketts.

“The Rickettses have been great neighbors to the city of Chicago,” he said. “They sponsored our first-ever, citywide Little League for 32 teams, with the White Sox. When the Jackie Robinson team was going, I said, ‘I want you guys to help me on funding so the whole city could participate.’

Boom.”

Cubs catcher Willson Contreras reacts after striking out in the first inning of Game 4 of the World Series against the Indians on Saturday night at Wrigley Field. The Cubs lost, 7-2. including four losses in the past five elimination games, going back to 2003. Their last elimination win came in Pittsburgh last year in the wildcard game.

Four teams have come back from 3-1 deficits to win the World Series, most recently the 1985 Royals over the Cardinals, with the final two games in Kansas City.

The three others all had to win the last two on the road: the 1979 Pirates over the Orioles, the 1968 Tigers over the Cardinals and the 1958 Yankees over the Milwaukee Braves.

World Series veteran John Lackey – the right-hander signed as a free agent last winter to pitch in October – had the best of three postseason starts, but lasted only five innings and left trailing 3-1 to the Indians and their 2014 Cy

Young winner.

Lackey retired the final eight batters he faced (for nine outs), but a home run and a throwing error led to a pair of Cleveland runs in the second, and a leadoff double in the third led to another.

One night after getting shut out for the fourth time this postseason in a 1-0 loss to Josh Tomlin and the Indians’ bullpen, the Cubs jumped on Kluber for a quick run in the first on Dexter Fowler’s leadoff double and Anthony Rizzo’s one-out, RBI single.

But Kluber, pitching on short rest, gave up only two more singles through five.

And after Rizzo led off the sixth with a double – trailing 4-1 – Kluber retired Ben Zobrist, Willson Contreras and Addison Russell without Rizzo advancing.

They didn’t score again until Fowler led off the eighth with a line-drive homer into the left-field bleachers.

By then, Glenbrook North grad Jason Kipnis had tacked on a three-run homer off Travis Wood in the seventh – part of a three-hit night that included a double in the third and earned him boos from his hometown by his final at-bat.

Kluber improved to 4-1 with a 0.75 ERA in five starts this postseason and 2-0 with one run in 12 innings in the World Series.

The good news for the Cubs is they don’t have to face Kluber on Sunday, or even Tuesday in Cleveland if Lester beats Game 2 loser Trevor Bauer.

The bad news: Kluber is lying in the weeds for a possible Game 7 start, on three days’ rest again.

2 Indians lead series, 3-1

Only thing Cubs hitting is wall CHICAGO – In the fifth inning Saturday night, in the depths of their offensive woes and facing a pitcher working on three days’ rest, the Cubs had a six-pitch inning. If you looked down for a second, you missed the atbats of Chris Coghlan, Dexter Fowler and Kris Bryant.

The World Series is going to end in a blink of an eye if VIEWS this keeps Rick up much Morrissey longer, leading to the obvious question: What in the first four games points to an epic comeback?

This series has revealed one team to be disciplined, multifaceted and up to the task, and it’s not the Cubs.

The Indians did everything better than the Cubs in a 7-2 victory at Wrigley Field, giving them a 3-1 lead in this series. That 107-year weight looks like one of the Pyramids right now.

In positive news, Jon Lester and Jake Arrieta will pitch the next two games for the Cubs.

And now back to reality: The Cubs have forgotten how to hit, unless you count the wall they’ve hit.

Ben Zobrist struggled Saturday. So did Kris Bryant. Javy Baez isn’t the same hitter he was in earlier series.

Willson Contreras struck out his first three times up. Here’s where you know things are a muddled mess for this team: Jason Heyward, who has struggled to hit since he came to Chicago in the offseason, had two singles against Corey Kluber, and the Cubs couldn’t take advantage of either.

Kluber has been great in this series. The Cubs were supposed to be great. And there, sports fans, is the difference. Credentials don’t mean anything. Performance does. And when the Cubs made things easy for Kluber in the fifth with their impatience, he didn’t even have to perform much.

Fowler homered off super reliever Andrew Miller in the eighth inning, and perhaps the Cubs can take that into Game 5 on Sunday. Hey, it’s something.

“We’re obviously having a tough time,” Cubs manager Joe Maddon said.

Inside Wrigley, Cubs fans couldn’t believe what they were seeing. You could hear the ache and disbelief in their voices all night. Not the freakedout, sky-is-about-to-fall quiver, but the sound of people who thought they were getting one thing and couldn’t

believe they were being given something else. It’s better to expect the best than the worst, but it probably hurts more when it all goes wrong.

You can ask all sorts of legitimate questions from Game 4, but two stand out: Why did the Cubs send a middling John Lackey to the mound in the first place?

And why, down 3-1, did they send him to the plate in the third inning?

Maybe Maddon should have used Lester on short rest the way the Indians did with Kluber. Before Saturday’s game, Lester said, “I would never in a million years ask to take John Lackey’s spot in a postseason start.

That’s what this guy’s made for.”

Look, it’s been 1,000,001 years since

the Cubs won a World Series. Lester should have asked. Or Maddon should have demanded.

Lackey led off the third inning, and it was like looking at Stonehenge: No one could come up with a good explanation for it. Lackey struck out looking, and despite getting two men on in the inning, the Cubs couldn’t score.

Maddon spent part of Friday and Saturday talking about how much better his young players will hit in coming years. Not a good sign. Staying in the moment, one of Maddon’s pet phrases, should have entailed talking about today and how to beat the Indians. Forget about the future.

You don’t know when you’re going to get back to the World Series, no matter how talented your team might be.

When the Cubs were doing well this season, nobody was talking about how good the young players will be

Skyhawks leap over Indians Bell’s hurdle over Jackson gives Johnsburg spark

By JOE STEVENSON

joestevenson@shawmedia.com JOHNSBURG – Johnsburg receiver Connor Bell took the quick pass on the left side and saw a line of blockers providing an alley toward the middle of the field.

As Bell raced across the field, Marengo defensive back Jarren Jackson came to meet him, and Bell instinctively utilized his high-jump skills to hurdle Jackson, then made it to the 3-yard line for a 27-yard gain.

“I’m a little taller (6-foot-1 to 5-9) than [Jackson] is, so I decided, ‘Why not try it?’ ” said Bell, a Class 2A state high jump qualifier. “My teammates were very shocked. It was a good feeling; I was very happy.”

The Skyhawks also were inspired. At that point, early in the second quarter, they still were tied with Marengo. After Bell’s exploits, they seized control.

No. 2-seeded Johnsburg scored on the next play and added three more second-quarter touchdowns on its way to a 56-14 Class 4A football firstround playoff victory Saturday night at Johnsburg Athletic Field.

The Skyhawks (10-0) play at No. 10 Manteno (7-3) at 7 p.m. Friday in their second-round game.

“We kind of needed something like that to get us sparked,” Skyhawks coach Dan DeBoeuf said. “You shouldn’t need that. It got things rolling, and then we were good to go.”

No. 15 Marengo (5-5) lost to Johnsburg, 48-3, the previous week, but the Indians came out ready to go, scoring on the second play from scrimmage, a 66-yard pass from quarterback Eric Mackey to receiver Jake LaSota.

After Johnsburg scored the next two touchdowns, Marengo answered with Aaron Shepard’s 95-yard kickoff return for a touchdown. That was all the Indians could get against the Skyhawks’ defense.

“We all got together and the key word was, ‘Breathe,’ ” linebacker Austin Butler said. “We had to calm our bodies down and think about what we

Frazier was part of a defense that allowed a touchdown on the first series and no more scores after that (Marengo’s other score was on a kickoff return). Frazier had a pass breakup in the first quarter, then picked off a pass in the third quarter and returned it from Marengo’s 19-yard line to the 3. That set up the Skyhawks’ final touchdown.

6 PREP FOOTBALL: CLASS 6A – PRAIRIE RIDGE 41, DEERFIELD 0

Wolves pitch a shutout

Set up a rematch with Montini in second round

By ALEX KANTECKI

akantecki@shawmedia.com CRYSTAL LAKE – Prairie Ridge junior Jeff Jenkins blasted through Deerfield’s line unopposed, got a good chunk of the Warriors’ punt and scooped up the ball at the opposition’s 20-yard line.

After that, Jenkins doesn’t remember much.

“I was playing nose, and I just rushed right up the middle and nobody was there,” Jenkins said. “I blocked it, and after that I didn’t know what was going on. I was shaking. I didn’t know how to run to the end zone. I was like, ‘What is going on right now?’

“But I stumbled in somehow, and it was awesome.”

Jenkins’ blocked punt for a score 1 minute and 14 seconds into Saturday’s Class 6A first-round playoff game was

only the beginning, as Prairie Ridge overwhelmed No. 16 Deerfield in a 41-0 victory.

The top-seeded Wolves (10-0) move on to play Montini in a second-round matchup at Montini. Prairie Ridge coach Chris Schremp wasn’t sure what day and time that game would be played immediately after Saturday’s win over Deerfield (5-5).

Montini (7-3) ended the Wolves’ season a year ago, 35-27, in the state semifinals, scoring 22 straight points in the fourth quarter.

“Our defense was just playing fast,” Schremp said. “They were just flying to the ball. Every time we made a tackle, we had two, three or more guys there ... just consistently tackling well, being athletic and making plays.”

Prairie Ridge held the Warriors to only 94 yards of offense, with many of those yards coming late with the Wolves’ starters out of the game midway through the third. Jenkins had one of six sacks for Prairie Ridge.

Junior linebacker Joe Perhats led the defense with two sacks and a fumble recovery, Trevor Potter and Hunter Morlock both had an interception, and Austen Ferbet, Jonathan Weissmann and Daniel Renteria added sacks.

SIDELINE VIEW

“We came to work hard at practice,” Perhats said. “We knew Deerfield wasn’t just going to let us win. Our defense just played together, swarmed to the football and everybody did their jobs.”

Prairie Ridge’s offense stumbled initially with an interception on its first drive that was underthrown and caught up in the wind, but the Wolves got going eventually.

Samson Evans hit Austen Ferbet for a 63-yard pass up the middle that led to their first offensive score, an 11-yard run by Emmanuel Ebirim (55 yards) in the final minute of the first.

Zach Gulbransen had 105 total yards, scoring on a 34-yard pass from Evans, who had three rushing touchdowns from 6, 1, and 1 yards out. He finished with 67 yards on 13 carries.

As a team, the Wolves ran it 48 times for 264 yards (5.5 average). They led, 270, at halftime.

“We weren’t really focused at first,” Evans said. “We went into the locker room focused and knew what we had to do to come out here and make a statement. ... We’re going to have to be really focused this week, have a good week of practice, to be ready for Montini.

They’re a good team.”

“They’ll be a tough out in the playoffs. I look forward to watching them. We wish them nothing but success.”

Lynch lauded his players for fighting through injuries to reach the postseason again.

“I’m proud of our guys; we battled through a lot of things and we stayed with it,” Lynch said. “Not at one point did they ever give up or give up hope.

Our kids came in believing we could win the game, and that’s all we could ask for.”

Jacobs really got rolling in the second quarter, as the defense stifled Lincoln Park and set up Katrenick with good field position.

On the Golden Eagles’ first play of the second quarter, starting at Lincoln Park’s 36, Katrenick floated a pass over the top for a touchdown to Strickland.

“We were running and they were sucked in, we just threw it over their heads, they were clueless,” Strickland said.

Another score by Strickland, a safety by the defense and a touchdown pass from Katrenick to Aidan Lumlum had the Golden Eagles up, 30-0, at the half.

“I had nerves, a lot of nerves. I like having nerves, it keeps me on my game, a lot of guys feel that way, too,” Katrenick said. “After the first couple plays, though, we knew that we were going to take this game over, and that’s a good feeling for all of us.”

The Golden Eagles began the second half in the same fashion. Three power run plays were followed by a 42-yard touchdown pass from Katrenick to Strickland.

CHICAGO – The first half of Saturday’s Class 7A first-round playoff game showcased a little bit of everything the Jacobs offense is capable of: the power running game that reinvigorated the Golden Eagles late in the season and the passing ability of Chris Katrenick that previously had been their calling card.

“Exactly, exactly, even though we’re in the T and three backs, we can still throw that dart,” Jacobs coach Bill Mitz said afterward.

A balanced offense, put in good spots by a swarming defense, helped No. 28 Jacobs beat No. 5 Lincoln Park, 51-8, Saturday at Lane Stadium. Loren Strickland scored four touchdowns, two rushing and two receiving, to lead the Golden Eagles. Katrenick completed eight of 10 passes for 189 yards and three touchdowns.

“We came in here confident as always, but we didn’t get ahead of ourselves,” Strickland said. “We were coming in, we treated them as a great team, we were going to have a battle.

We were going to have to come out here and fight.”

With its first playoff win since 2006, Jacobs advances to play host to No. 12 Batavia in the second round.

“We knew we could win this game – we go into every game thinking that,” Katrenick said. “We prepared really well this week, we had the extra day, as well. Lot of guys working hard and it’s a great atmosphere. We had a lot of hype coming in and we showed it.”

Jacobs began methodically, pounding the ball with three backs, but as the defense cheated in, Katrenick looked comfortable as ever throwing the ball.

The Golden Eagles threw only once on their opening drive, but it was a 25-yard completion to convert a third down. Eventually, Strickland punched in a 2-yard score with 3:40 left in the first quarter.

“That’s what we’re trying to do,” Katrenick said. “We’ve got a lot of options on offense, a lot of athletes, a lot of guys making plays, and they showed that today. ...

“The run helps with everything. When we go the three-back set, the play action has really been good for us this year.”

PREP FOOTBALL: CLASS 7A – BATAVIA 42, McHENRY 12

Warriors lead early, drop opener Bulldogs’ size ‘took over the ballgame’

By SEAN HAMMOND

shammond@shawmedia.com BATAVIA – McHenry entered Saturday’s Class 7A first-round football playoff game making its first appearance in the postseason since 2007. The Warriors grabbed an early lead, but it was the team making its 13th playoff appearance in the past 14 years that is moving on.

Batavia fought off an early deficit and ended McHenry’s season with a 4212 victory. Batavia will travel to Jacobs in the second round.

McHenry’s Brandon Redina recovered a Batavia fumble on Bulldogs’ first possession, and four plays later, Warriors running back Gio Purpura scored on a 7-yard run to open a 6-0 lead.

• GOLDEN EAGLES

Continued from page 7 After the defense forced a three-andout, Jacobs’ Trevor Fitzsimmons returned the punt 40 yards for a score.

Suddenly, it was 44-0 midway through

“We were running the ball, we were pounding the rock up the middle, outside,” Purpura said. “We had a good run on the outside that sparked the drive, and we were pretty much rolling on all cylinders. Then we kind of just fell off a little bit.”

The Warriors (6-4) held the lead for more than a quarter before Batavia’s Thomas Stuttle caught a touchdown pass from quarterback Ben Weerts and made the extra point for the lead.

Batavia (8-2) swapped out Weerts and quarterback Riley Cooper throughout the game. Weerts was used mostly as a runner, but capitalized on a couple of key passes, including the touchdown to Stuttle.

Cooper connected with 6-foot-6 tight

end Glenn Albanese for a score with less than four minutes left in the half.

McHenry tried to hurry downfield and score before half, but quarterback Colton Klein was picked off by Batavia’s Conner Oroni.

It proved costly.

Two plays later, Cooper again connected with his biggest target, Albanese, down the middle for a touchdown. The Warriors trailed, 21-6, at halftime and never recovered.

“When it came down to it, their size really took over the ballgame,” McHenry coach Nat Zunkel said. “Batavia is a good football team, a good football program.”

Zunkel took over the McHenry program this year after seven seasons at Mercer County in Aledo. He and his staff coached a 1-8 team in 2015 into a playoff contender in 2016.

“Most fun I’ve had in 18 years of coaching,” Zunkel said. “The support we have from the school and the community, going forward we have a lot to build on this year. We set the foundation in a lot of ways, and we’re just really proud of that senior group of kids.

They’re a dynamic group. Practice was the most joy I’ve had every single day throughout the entire season.”

Purpura added a second touchdown late. He finished his final high school game with 96 yards on 13 carries. Klein, also a senior, finished 12 for 20 passing for 103 yards and the one interception.

“Emotion-wise, everybody is distraught and everybody is sad,” Klein said. “But at least we can leave on a happy note that we put McHenry back on the map and we played for each other, had a good time and kicked some [butt].”

the third quarter, the running clock was in effect and the Golden Eagles could rest their starters.

“We just kept going, we didn’t let momentum stop,” Strickland said. “We just kept hitting them and pounded it.”

Noah Capistran added the final Ja-

cobs touchdown with a 1-yard run in the fourth quarter, and Lincoln Park got its only score on the ensuing kickoff when CJ Dale found a seam and went 82 yards to the end zone.

Cole Patrician picked off Lincoln Park’s Jake Dowell as time expired,

punctuating the Golden Eagles’ first playoff win in a decade.

“We got out of this healthy and played a lot of kids, so spirits are high.

And we’ll be at home and, hey, you get in the playoffs, anything can happen,” Mitz said. “Now, everyone is 1-0 that’s left.”

Becker, Bruzzini, Waz also going to Peoria

Sylvia Waz Dundee-Crown, jr.

Waz took 14th place in 18:23.98 to grab the fifth of seven individual-qualifying spots for the state meet. Waz will be making her first trip to state.

q THE NUMBER

2

State appearances for each of the runners from Crystal Lake South – which took fifth – Caitlin Bruzzini and Jack Becker.

Bruzzini made it last year; Becker qualified as a freshman.

q AND ANOTHER THING ...

Cary-Grove freshman Allison Drage took 20th and was the eighth individual qualifier, leaving her one spot from making it to the state meet. The race was started, then stopped and restarted after some competitors fell, Drage being one of them. a freshman.

In the girls race, South senior Caitlin Bruzzini took fifth in 17:47.83 and is headed back to the state meet, while D-C junior Sylvia Waz took 14th in 18:23.98 and is a first-time qualifier.

Although Becker’s finish was expected, Hurgoi’s was more of a surprise after he took ninth in the Fox Valley Conference Meet and 11th at last week’s Grant Regional. Hurgoi said he had a subpar regional race, and Chargers coach Tyler Carlson said he went out too slow there.

“Everybody said you have to go out fast here,” Carlson said. “Anthony took that to heart. It’s incredible. I saw him do all the work. He went to the Wisconsin camp, and that really lit a fire under him. Since then, he’s been a man possessed. I don’t even know what to say.”

Hurgoi went out with the lead pack and held on as long as he could. He had enough left to pass two runners in the final 200 meters and get ninth.

“I’m so happy right now, it’s unbelievable,” he said. “It feels amazing.

I’ve been looking forward to this all season and it finally came true.”

Becker suffered from exhaustion after going out too fast at the FVC Meet two weeks ago but looked strong with his finish Saturday. He missed state last year after battling leg fatigue throughout the season.

“After making it to state as a freshman, I thought I’d always be back

there,” Becker said. “Then last year was a wakeup call that not everything can go your way. That’s OK, but I’m glad I’m back now and feeling good.”

Bruzzini had an anxious moment in the first 800 meters Saturday when she fell after getting bumped in the early race congestion.

“I got back up and stayed calm and focused on getting up to where I needed to be in the race,” Bruzzini said. “I wanted to look for girls like (Grant’s) Danielle Osmon and stay with her and keep passing people and get in the top five.”

Waz knew she had a better chance of qualifying this season than last year, but now how much better?

“I had no idea,” Waz said. “The coaches don’t want to stress me out too much, they just tell me, ‘You have a chance.’ They never tell me how much of a chance. I just ran my hardest today and hoped that all would go well. I’m so glad to finally make it.”

Class 3A West Aurora Sectional: Huntley was the only area school competing at the meet and did not qualify any girls or boys runners for the state meet. Vicky Watkins led the Red Raiders girls with a 56th-place finish. Ian Geisler was 48th to lead the boys team.

WAUKEGAN – Anthony Hurgoi displayed impeccable timing.

The Dundee-Crown junior ran the race of his life Saturday at the Class 3A Waukegan Cross Country Sectional, knocking 21 seconds off his previous best 5K time to take ninth place.

By passing the finish line in the top 10, Hurgoi was guaranteed a trip to next week’s state meet at Peoria’s Detweiller Park. Hurgoi said he felt capable of a big race before he took off at Waukegan Sports Park.

“I knew I could run the time, and this was the place,” said Hurgoi, who finished in 15:18.59. “I’ve been training hard all season and I was sort of expecting a big time. I just needed somewhere to drop a time, and this was the right time.”

Crystal Lake South junior Jack Becker took fifth in 15:11.22 and is headed back to state, where he ran as

Yoon’s 23-yard field goal gives Irish win over Miami

SOUTH BEND, Ind. – DeShone Kizer was running to celebrate what he hoped would be the game-winning touchdown when he found himself grappling in a pile of bodies trying to recover a fumble with the score tied and two minutes left.

The 6-foot-4, 230-pound junior somehow muscled his way to the ball after tight end Durham Smythe fumbled near the goal line, allowing Notre Dame to keep possession so Justin Yoon could kick a

23-yard field goal with 30 seconds left to give the Irish a 30-27 victory over Miami on Saturday.

“He’s the PG (point guard), man,” Wade said of new teammate Rajon Rondo. “He’s the first one on the ball defensively, putting on that pressure. It allows you behind him to do the same thing, and then he runs the offense for us.

BLACKHAWKS NOTES

Crawford rounding into form after World Cup

By BRIAN SANDALOW For the Sun-Times

CHICAGO – Corey Crawford was asked a simple and direct question after Saturday’s practice: How would you rate your play so far this season?

Crawford repeated the question, took a moment to craft a response and then spoke.

“I don’t know. I’ve been feeling better and better every game,” said Crawford, who’s expected to start Sunday when the Blackhawks play host to the Los Angeles Kings at the United Center. “Just little details here and there that are coming a little bit easier each time I get out there. Just trying to be solid every night.”

Crawford has been more than solid the past couple of nights for the Hawks. In fact, he’s been a big reason why they’ve salvaged points in games despite mediocre performances elsewhere.

On Friday in New Jersey, Crawford

made 30 saves and helped the Hawks rally from a 2-1 deficit to win 3-2 in overtime. Against Calgary on Monday, he stopped 29 shots and kept the Hawks in a game they lost 3-2 in OT while still grabbing a valuable point.

That sounds like a guy who’s in pretty good form, not one still trying to iron out some wrinkles and issues.

But Crawford, who has Corey a .971 save percentage Crawford at even strength compared to a less-stellar .667 when the Hawks are shorthanded, doesn’t sound like he completely likes where his game is right now.

And some of that might have to do with the World Cup. Crawford was part of Team Canada’s championship group but played sparingly, backing up Montreal’s Carey Price. Crawford played one game in the tournament itself and only anoth-

er 30 minutes during the preliminary games, perhaps dulling a little bit of his edge before the NHL season.

“It was a lot of fun, but I didn’t play for a month,” Crawford said. “I played a game and a half the whole time I was there. I didn’t see a lot of work. I lost a little bit of timing, game shape a little bit.

Just got to battle to get to where I was.”

Where Crawford was at the end of last season was one of the NHL’s best goaltenders and a reason many felt the Hawks could overcome the annual roster turnover to remain a contender in the Western Conference. He’s playing like that again, despite not seeing many shots in games … or even workouts during his time in the World Cup with Canada.

“It wasn’t much action in practice, but I’m not making any excuses,” Crawford said. “I had a lot of work here when I got here and played a couple games. I’ve been feeling better and better as we go here.”

Joel Quenneville, who assisted Mike

Babcock with Team Canada, hasn’t had the same concerns about how his goalie has played after the World Cup. “He’s been fine. I thought he’s been fine the whole time,” Quenneville said.

“I thought he’s been really good. The last couple of games were his two best.

(Friday) night was one of those games where the goalie was the big factor in us getting two points.”

Notes: Gustav Forsling (upper body) practiced Saturday, but Quenneville said the Hawks are pointing toward him returning Tuesday against Calgary. The rookie defenseman hasn’t played since Oct. 24, when he was on the ice for only 6:47. Andrew Desjardins (lower body) skated before practice. He’s been on injured reserve since Oct. 10. Marian Hossa didn’t practice, but Quenneville said he’s fine.

Vinnie Hinostroza hasn’t played since Oct. 18 against Philadelphia, but Quenneville said “hopefully” he plays Sunday. “We want to get him in there,” Quenneville said.

CHCIAGO – While most of the city was fixated on what was taking place about 6 miles northeast of the United Center, the Bulls quietly went about the business of playing “Hoiball.”

Finally.

Yes, two games into an 82-game NBA season isn’t even big enough to be called a sample size, but that doesn’t mean second-year coach Fred Hoiberg wasn’t allowed to enjoy what he was seeing in the 118-101 one-sided win over Indiana on Saturday.

It was defense, outside shooting, ball movement, pace and space for 48 minutes. Basically, everything Hoiberg was supposed to bring from Iowa State when the Bulls hired the offensive-minded coach to take over the chair left by Tom Thibodeau.

Basically, everything last year’s team wasn’t able to do consistently or, in some cases, even grasp.

And although there’s plenty of credit to go around, Dwyane Wade was pushing it in one direction after the win.

Rondo, but so was Hoiberg, as the point guard finished with 13 assists in 25 minutes.

“I’ll say this, Rajon has really been committed to getting that ball up the floor, and he talks in every huddle, ‘Guys run with me, run with me.’ ” Hoiberg said.

“Again, it’s something we work on, it’s something we stress, getting the ball up and down the floor, and again, our guys have been playing very unselfishly.

When somebody is open, we generally make the right play.”

They were making the right plays on both side of the ball against Indiana.

That was on display very early, as the Bulls (2-0) held the shootfirst-ask-questions-later Pacers offense to only 20 points in the first 12 minutes, and didn’t feel the need to take their foot off the throat in the second, allowing only 21 points.

Meanwhile, all the concerns that the Bulls offense might go through some growing pains in the AP photo early part of the season continued to be put on mute, evident by a sec- The Bulls’ Robin Lopez (left) dunks against Pacers defender ond quarter in which the Bulls shot Myles Turner in the second half of the Bulls’ 118-101 victory 14-for-18 (78 percent) from the field.

COLLEGE FOOTBALL: MINNESOTA 40, ILLINOIS 17

’Cats put up a fight Gophers turn Illini’s

By MITCH STACY

The Associated Press COLUMBUS, Ohio – The problems that have bogged Ohio State’s offense put the Buckeyes in a bind again. J.T. Barrett and Ohio State did enough in the fourth quarter against Northwestern to avoid a second straight upset loss.

Curtis Samuel ran for a 3-yard touchdown with 9:43 left to give No. 6 Ohio State a lead, and Barrett converted two third downs on the game-sealing drive in a 24-20 victory Saturday.

After being upset by Penn State last week, the Buckeyes’ offense struggled against another multitouchdown underdog. Ohio State (7-1, 4-1 Big Ten) punted on five straight drives in one stretch, but responded to Northwestern tying it at 17 with a touchdown drive, capped by Samuel’s run.

Northwestern (4-4, 3-2) then got to the Ohio State 3, but settled for a 33yard Jack Mitchell field goal to close to 24-20 with 3:31 left. The Buckeyes mounted a final clock-eating drive.

Barrett hit Noah Brown for 16 yards on third-and-8 and then took off on a 35yard run to convert a third-and-10 and

put the Buckeyes in the clear.

“It was a pretty good chess match back and forth, and I just loved the way we finished it off,” Ohio State coach Urban Meyer said.

Barrett, who has struggled finding open receivers and whose offensive line had difficulty protecting him last week, was 21 for 32 for 223 yards, but he didn’t complete a pass of more than 19 yards until the fourth quarter when K.J. Hill turned a sideline completion into a 34-yard gain.

“I’m comfortable where we’re at,” Barrett said. “I know there’s things we can absolutely be better at as far as our offense. We’re executing.”

Mike Weber rushed 14 times for 87 yards and two touchdowns, the first coming on Ohio State’s opening drive.

He found the end zone against in the second quarter, chugging around the right end for a 23-yard score.

Samuel ran the ball seven times and caught seven passes for 99 total yards.

Clayton Thorson was 25 for 42 for 256 yards with a touchdown and a first-quarter interception for Northwestern. Austin Carr, the Big Ten’s leading receiver, caught eight passes for 158 yards.

turnovers into points

By DAVID MERCER The Associated Press

CHAMPAIGN – On a windy afternoon that made passing an adventure, Minnesota knew it would need to run the ball if it wanted to pocket a win.

But the Golden Gophers figured they might have to run a little farther than they did to beat the Illinois.

A pair of early Illinois turnovers and a short punt gave Minnesota the ball at the Illinois 49-, 20- and 9-yard lines, and the Gophers turned each into a touchdown on the way to a 40-17 win.

Rodney Smith did the bulk of the damage, rushing for 100 yards and two touchdowns on 20 carries. Shannon Brooks added 59 yards and a score on a dozen carries.

Smith’s first touchdown was a 20yard burst up the middle with 2:16 left in the first quarter, giving Minnesota (6-2, 3-2 Big Ten) the lead for good at 14-7. It followed a fumbled punt by Illinois’ Darius Mosely, recovered by Antione Winfield Jr. at the 20.

“We love to see that because we’re pretty good in the red zone,” said Brooks, who added that those turnovers built momentum for Minnesota and robbed Illinois of energy. “Yeah, definitely. That’s a stab, a stab in the back. That hurts.”

The turnovers, Illinois coach Lovie Smith said, swung the game hard and early for Minnesota.

“It’s hard to win the football game when you start like that,” Smith said.

“Those turnovers put us in a hole.”

Jeff George Jr., Illinois’ (2-6, 1-4) third-string quarterback and the son of Illini legend and longtime NFL quarterback Jeff George, started his second straight game and went 16 of 34 for 156 yards and a touchdown.

Illinois starter Wes Lunt suited up but sat out his third straight game with a back injury. Second-string quarterback Chayce Crouch, who injured a shoulder in a win over Rutgers two weeks ago, is out for the season after having surgery Monday, Smith confirmed.

A hike in Glacial Park for Fletch Last Friday over dinner, Kevin suggested we take the kids to Glacial Park on Sunday to see the changing leaves. It was supposed to be a perfect day, and we were both thinking it would be nice to take our dog, Fletch.

Our big old Chocolate Lab is about 12.

And although his days are mostly good, Fletch is showing his age. He is gray around his muzzle. He’s mistrustful of our hardwood floors and prefers to stay on our carpets and rugs. He barks at our stairs when he’s too tired to climb them.

But the best part of his day is still when he and I walk Jacks to the bus stop in the mornings. Fletch gets a short walk up and down the block, which he especially loves now that the mornings are cool. He gets lots of pets from the neighborhood kids. And after the big yellow bus picks up his human brother, Fletch is my center of attention.

On sunny days, he gets to come home and snooze in a ray of light in the family room and wait for the kids to come back home. Life is mostly good for the dog.

Still, getting old can be hard, especially when it messes with his brain. Fletch has cognitive episodes where, in consultation with our vet, we think he’s mixing up his days and nights. When we go to bed on these nights, he starts to pant, cry and bark – pacing from room to room, not understanding why we’re sleeping or why we’re not as freaked out as he is.

Last Saturday was one of those nights.

He was inconsolable unless someone was petting him and telling him everything was OK. I took the late night shift with him on the family room couch. Kevin took the early morning shift.

We agreed a short hike in the woods Sunday would do Fletch some good, get him some fresh air and exercise and hopefully quiet the voices in his head.

At first, Mallory staged a mini-protest, and I didn’t really blame her since the last short hike we dragged her on a few weeks ago with friends turned out to be a strenuous nearly 6 miles in the Smokey Mountains. But she agreed to go for her dog.

All started out well. Beautiful day.

Beautiful park. Smooth and easy trail.

But Fletch’s hind legs, not used to being off pavement, tired out quickly and soon

Some thoughtful Cubs fans with two dogs walked by and gave him a bowl of ice water, and we slowly made our way back to the car.

Sunday night was another tough and sleepless one. In addition to being restless, Fletch was having a lot of problems walking. We were scared of what we’d hear from the vet the next day. Thankfully, his hips and knees checked out, and the vet concluded his weakened muscles were just sore and his limited mobility was further messing with the panic in his brain at night.

She prescribed an anti-anxiety pill to add to the meds he already is taking

for seasonal allergies, normal aches and pains and an ear infection. And now we have our dog back, walking, sleeping and acting normally, not drugged out but comfortably chill.

We did not know it at the time, but that may have been Fletch’s last hike since we don’t want to strain him like that again. But we’re grateful he’s feeling himself. And after a few more days of healing, we’ll get back to the bus stop.

Richmond artist shows painting at the Louvre RICHMOND – Artist Zmiya Mochoruk of Richmond once lived in the south of France, but he never made it to see the master works at the Louvre in Paris.

That is until last week, when Mochoruk flew to Paris to have his work, “The Awakening of Eve,” shown in an exhibit at the famous museum during Le Carrousel Du Louvre Art Expo 2016.

Another artist and fan of his on social media invited him to show a painting when a spot opened up. Mochoruk spent the next three weeks planning his trip and working on his painting, an oil on canvas with a biblical theme that fit well with the artist he would be showing with. “[It was received] very good,” Mochoruk said. “I was surprised at the amount of interest in my Zmiya Mochoruk piece, considering there are hundreds of pieces there, all by European artists, with very few from the states. A lot of TV crews and other artists came by and gave their congratulations and really enjoyed what I did.”

He also took the opportunity to finally visit the

Louvre.

“It was pretty awe-inspiring. It’s so much bigger and so much grander than I had expected, really, it was overwhelming,” he said. “It’s all such a blur. … It’s just masterpiece after masterpiece after masterpiece.”

Since returning home, Mochoruk is focusing on his other art, tattoos. In May he opened Arkane Ink, 10331 Main St., Richmond, located inside the AEON Gallery, where some of his paintings also can be seen. Although he has been painting for about 28 years, he took up tattooing in 1999, he said.

“I went through kind of a painter’s block,” he said. “Another artist told me to try another medium. I had a couple of years and an extra $10 grand laying around and went and got an apprenticeship. [I] thought I would just tattoo for one day and turned out to be pretty good at it.”

He spent the next almost two decades developing both of his talents, the success of his new shop coinciding with the success of “The Awakening of Eve.” Through the contacts he made at the Louvre show, the painting next will be shown in Cannes, France, and Art Basel, an international art fair in Basel, Switzerland.

“They do a lot of big name exhibitions, and so now that I’m kind of hooked up with these guys, we’ll see where it goes,” he said.

Children’s Halloween books that are a real treat

By MIA GEIGER

The Washington Post For many kids, dressing up as their favorite pirate or princess and collecting candy sounds like perfection.

Some, though, are intimidated by the whole thing. Who can blame them? Big monsters are parading up and down the street where they live; they’re even knocking on their door! For those kids, a gentle story about the silly side of Halloween can help them feel more comfortable. And for those who have had their costume picked out for weeks, these books can make the day more fun.

“Boo! Haiku”

By Deanna Caswell; illustrated by Bob Shea

Birdie has a problem. All her friends know which character they’ll dress up as for Halloween, but she isn’t sure. A trip to the museum introduces her to famous leaders and pioneers, including Amelia Earhart, Neil Armstrong, Betsy Ross, Albert Einstein and Martin Luther King Jr. Which will she choose? The story conveys a message of “you can be whatever you want to be” in a fun and unexpected way. Cheerful watercolor and colored-pencil illustrations are accented with collages of art that add dimension to a delightful tale of girl power.

Even if your children have never heard of haiku, they’ll love these poems. Each haiku describes a Halloween character: “an orange porch pal/ scooped for pie and roasted seeds/a candlelit grin.” The next line asks “Can you guess who from this haiku?” Kids will have to turn the page to find out if they guessed correctly.

Bold illustrations of friendly-looking skeletons, ghosts and witches nearly pop off the page, and the haiku appear in easy-to-read lettering against lots of white space.

“This Is The House That Monsters Built”

By Steve Metzger; illustrated by Jared Lee

Kids who know about the house that Jack built will giggle at this spooky-house version. It begins: “This is the mummy who raised the wall,/ Inside the house that monsters built./ This is the spider who started to crawl,/That shocked the mummy who raised the wall,/Inside the house that

monsters built.” And on it goes, until a werewolf, monster named Frankie, black cat, bats, zombies and more get their turn at building the house. A group of trick-or-treaters are the last creatures to cause mayhem in this story that offers lots of quirky humor and richly detailed ink drawings.

“Birdie’s Happiest Halloween”

By Sujean Rim

“Grimelda: The Very Messy Witch”

By Diana Murray; illustrated by Heather Ross

Grimelda, a spunky young witch, wants to make her favorite pie, but she needs a particular ingredient. If only her house weren’t such a mess, she might be able to find it. She finally resorts to sweeping, which helps her find what she needs.

Fighting cold weather prep in Late Summer Plus I know fall is here and, when fall is here, that winter is coming. But as I sit out in the backyard and it is 74 degrees, am I wrong to not want to winterize?

Of course, it doesn’t help that my neighbor to the left already has taken in all of his lawn furniture and dismantled most of his kids’ seven-story outdoor playground, save for one lone swing. My neighbor to the right has moved his grill to the side of the house, covered and locked it (he acts like I was the one that “borrowed” his Sunday paper for three weeks in a row. Really, who leaves their newspaper in the driveway until noon unless he’s out of town?) Their backyards look like they already have migrated south for the winter season. They look forgotten. It is sad.

Sure, they may look out their side window at me, through the blinds, (I see you! I did not take your paper, Marty!) and think I am the sad one still drinking rum runners and listening to Jimmy Buffett on my ancient CD player while I fight with the temperamental locking mechanism on my chaise lounge here in Late Summer Plus.

I like to hold onto the notion that if you devoutly ignore a chore, the Universe will reward your independence and adapt so there will be no need to perform it. Evolutionary biologists may disagree and label my behavior self-deception, but I don’t see them trying to help me figure out how the leaf blower works. It’s far easier for them to sit on the side-

“I like to hold onto the notion that if you devoutly ignore a chore, the Universe will reward your independence and adapt so there will be no need to perform it. Evolutionary biologists may disagree and label my behavior self-deception, but I don’t see them trying to help me figure out how the leaf blower works.” lines with their notepads and lab coats and study my procrastination.

I can assure you, it takes a lot more courage to wear a Hawaiian shirt and cargo shorts deep into October.

And to extract as much as possible from the summer is only natural.

Even though it was a beautiful three months, I feel like I binge-watched the long warm days and now just want one or two more episodes to get me through to next year.

Pre-winter chores just signal winter that you are ready for an early arrival. Winters, like mothersin-law, have a habit of coming early and overstaying if they think you have prepared for them. There is a reason I seal the driveway and start loud construction projects when relatives are in town. Avoidance of pre-winter chores should be looked upon with more favor these days. I am sure Thoreau spent all the au-

tumn watching leaves change color and birds change their songs instead of rolling up garden hoses and rustoleum-ing bistro tables. He knew to connect with nature, the first point of business was to accept it without interference. A true architect of his own spiritual discovery – not to mention what he did for the Cliff Notes industry.

Why shouldn’t I chronicle the ground squirrel’s nut gathering activities, instead of re-caulking a window we have never opened? Or look to the sky and watch the poetry of the slightly asymmetrical “V” that is a flock of geese heading to Boca Raton – rather than clean out another gutter spout? How about observing the hulking frame of a grizzly bear as he prepares his den for hibernation?

OK, maybe there are no bears around here, but I’ll bet there is a good Morgan Freeman-narrated documentary about them on right now, and that would be better than replacing a piece of siding on the side of the house no one sees.

“Are you ever going to start raking?” my wife yells from the upstairs window.

She seems to have a knack, every time I am trying to influence the Universe by prolonging the moment, to remind me of something I promised to do, in a moment of weakness.

I personally have grown to like the contrast of the orange-brown leaves against the brown-green grass, but that is the Monet side of me. I grudgingly get out of my chair and

give up my Bordeaux countryside daydream, but not before shaking my fist and yelling up at the empty window, “Je voudrais les escargots en blanc vin hors d’oeuvre – pour deux!” The one French phrase I know helps me assert who is, in fact, the man of the house, although, I must admit, forcefully ordering snails in white wine appetizers for two is slightly childish.

My neighbor comes out and walks over to her children’s swing set and unchains the forgotten and lonely swing that was keeping me company. She carries it in front of her and walks back toward her house.

The sky is noticeably more gray now, and a burst of cold Canadian air comes through. I wave, and she waves back. I can feel autumn opening the door for winter. She seems to fade away just as she reaches the house.

I grab the rake leaning against the side of the deck and drag it to the middle of the backyard. My CD player switches tracks. “Changes in Latitudes, Changes in Attitudes” begins to play. I reach out and start pulling the leaves toward me, all the while longing for a warm Key West breeze and a visit from a chum with a bottle of rum.

Watching addiction like a train wreck in slow motion Watching someone you love drink or drug themselves into dangerous or even life-threatening situations is like watching a train wreck – one that you have anticipated for months or years – happening in slow motion. What’s worse is you can see it coming, and they cannot.

It seems like they should be able to see what’s coming. It’s obvious to us, to everyone around them, but the blindness and the hard charge to self-destruction only picks up speed.

Disasters that happened once in a while start happening more frequently until they become the norm. A random job loss turns into unemployability. A loving parent turns into an irresponsible child.

“Dianne” had been a cheerleader and National Honor Society member in high school and also had been a girl who was known to “party.” Her heavy drinking and cocaine use got her a rehab stay in her senior year. After her stay, she felt it was her decision and her right to carry on with her drug and alcohol activities as if, she thought, everyone used like she did.

It was almost as if she lived in an alternate universe where consequences didn’t exist. Her parents rescued and excused her at every turn. If she lost a job or a relationship failed, it always was the fault of someone else.

This attitude pervaded her life. She seemed to always be the victim and angry at everyone and everything.

Her drinking morphed into destructive binge drinking through her early 20s and into her first marriage. She

was able to contain her drinking, with the use of marijuana, through her first pregnancy but lost control near the end of her second and gave up entirely during her third. Her fourth was stillborn, and she went off the rails.

She went on an epic six-month bender, got a divorce, lost her kids and ended up sleeping in an abandoned building with some “friends.”

Her parents begged her to get help, fished her out of the hole in which she was living and took her to rehab. She stayed exactly one hour, told off the intake person and called a cab to take her to a liquor store, where she used the little money her mom had given her to buy a bottle of vodka.

She occasionally gets to see her kids today. Her visits are supervised, and no one knows where she lives or if she even has an address. The kids have grown up largely with their father with a little time with Dianne’s mom.

The kids tell me their mom doesn’t fool them by brushing her teeth to hide the vodka. The oldest one looked at me with a “whatever” kind of look and said, “Who brushes their teeth in the middle of the day?”

Dianne’s alcoholism has cost her everything.

MCDH collecting old pumpkins CRYSTAL LAKE – The McHenry County Department of Health is hosting a free pumpkin collection from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Nov. 5 in the parking lot of McHenry County College, 8900 Route 14, Crystal Lake.

Pumpkin composting events, which first began in northern Illinois about three years ago, are really taking off this year.

County residents can drop off organic Halloween decorations, such as pumpkins, cornstalks, gourds and mums that are free of candles, glow

sticks, lights and artificial fasteners.

These items are highly compostable, and the nutrients they contain can be returned to the soil to grow more food, according to a news release. The compostable material will be taken to a permitted organics composting facility.

The collection will be during the Green Living Expo. For information, call 815-334-4585, email klhecke@ co.mchenry.il.us or visit www.mcdh. info.

Halloween education

Lundahl Middle School teacher takes costumes to next level

H

By CHRIS MORDI • editorial@nwherald.com

alloween brings out the best in Fred Kaiser. Or the worst. It just depends on whom you ask.

Kaiser has been creating elaborate costumes and bringing them to life for almost three decades to the joy – and terror – of students and faculty at Lundahl Middle School in Crystal Lake, where he is a PE teacher.

“There are a few that are petrified [by the costumes and characters],” he said. “Some take the day off school because they are so freaked out.”

Kaiser has been crazy about Halloween since he was a kid.

“When I was in grade school, my parents got me a professional makeup kit that had silicone and other things in it,” Kaiser said.

“And I started monkeying around with it.”

Through school and college, he continued to hone his abilities. In 1988, Kaiser was a new teacher, and that Halloween he decided to bring his hobby into the classroom.

“I was sitting at school and thought, ‘wouldn’t it be great to dress up?’ ” he said. “My parents asked me if I was really going to do it.”

The costume and makeup he wore to school that year was of an old man.

“I was 23, and I made myself look like I was in my 80s,” he said. “I played the part with the walk, the cane, the dress. It’s interesting how you fool so many people.”

He said some teachers absolutely love it, but others are creeped out, such as the year he dressed as a mime and wouldn’t talk, acting out scenes to communicate.

But Kaiser said his annual tradition has inspired more teachers to go to school in costumes, as well. He soon gained a reputation, and a following.

“It started as a joke, and now everyone is wondering what the costume will be.”

Fred Kaiser

Lundahl Middle School PE teacher “It started as a joke, and now everyone is wondering what the costume will be,” he said.

He never shares his plans before Halloween, but he added a section to his website, www.physedfred.com, to keep parents and former students informed of his latest creations.

Kaiser believes the costumes represent something more than just dressing up.

“At school, what’s neat is that [the costumes are] an expression of what you can do with art and how you can become the creature or costume,” he said. “It’s self-expression. It’s OK to be a little different.”

He said the students are at an inbetween age where they want to be accepted but also want to be their own person. Teacher can show by example that it is OK to be yourself, even if being yourself means, one day a year, being a zombie vampire or a woman who rides a motorcycle.

“If the teacher can do it, they think, ‘why can’t I?’ ” he said.

He has rarely missed a Halloween.

“I missed a couple of years because I was out of town. [Teachers would] tell the school kids [I] was the Invisible Man,” he said. “And the kids were looking for me!”

He does all of his own makeup and makes every costume himself. The makeup alone can take 3 to 4 hours to apply. Kaiser said he wakes up by 4 a.m. every Halloween to get ready.

He alternates themes each year between scary and non-scary because he said it keeps him from falling into a design rut.

Some of his scary costumes have included a clown, a scarecrow that had him walking on stilts and a monster that had him gluing fangs on his face to look like he had several rows of teeth.

Kaiser starts thinking about his next costume about a year in advance.

“I’ll see something in a movie, and that will inspire me,” he said. “Say I’m watching a vampire movie and there’s a creature there, I’ll see an aspect that inspires me. Maybe it’s a cockeyed mouth. I’ll build off that.”

There are some years where he doesn’t know what he’s going to be a week before Halloween, and some years where he’ll have the next four years’ worth of ideas lined up.

He said he’s always keeping his eyes open for things to inspire him.

He’ll find something from a hardware store and build off it, or he’ll find a piece of burlap and that will serve as inspiration.

“I go off what my mom used to do – make my own costumes,” he said.

“The thrift stores are great places to get things.”

His favorite costume as a kid was something that was like the Heat Miser from the 1974 TV show “A Year Without Christmas.”

Evil Clown, 2000

Mime, 2009

“It was the first real mask I ever had. It was latex, and that was unheard of at the time,” Kaiser said. “I felt it was cool to wear the costume.”

For the first time this year, Kaiser will not be building the haunted garage he has created at his home since his kids were little. He said it had been a neighborhood activity that would draw 200-300 people each year, but his kids are at an age where they no longer want to do it. Like with his costumes, he enjoyed immersing others in the frightful story with him.

“We would have football players come through at the door and say, ‘No, we’re not doing this!’ ” Kaiser said. “I like Halloween because it is great to get a raw reaction out of people, the genuine reaction that is awesome or the scare. It’s harmless.

You get to see the kids experience it,” Kaiser said.

He also has another commitment – printing Cubs t-shirts.

Kaiser owns ThinkInk printing in Crystal Lake and he was contacted by a t-shirt manufacturer to print Cubs National League Championship Series t-shirts that are sold around the U.S. “We’ve been printing non-stop, something like in the thousands [of shirts],” he said. “We’re printing as fast as we can. I’m not sure where they’re being sold. We’re just printing them. We’ve got our nose to the grindstone to get them done.”

Author Spotlight

PAULA GARNER

Hometown: Highland Park Latest Book: “Phantom Limbs” Publisher: Candlewick Press Release Date: Sept. 27, 2016 Available: Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Indiebound

Why is this story important to you?

“Phantom Limbs” is important to me because it’s the story I needed when I was a teen. I poured my heart and soul into it, striving to be honest and true to the characters and their experiences and emotions, but also to infuse their stories with healing and hope.

How long did it take you to write? What was your process?

I worked on “Phantom Limbs” for about seven years, from concept to final draft. My process apparently involved overwriting and meandering all over the place as I figured out the plot, then rewriting nearly all of it multiple times, then cutting 30 percent. This is not necessarily a method I recommend!

What’s your new book about?

Phantom Limbs is about Otis, a 16-year-old boy who has never gotten over Meg, his first love, who completely disappeared from his life three years before – shortly after the accidental death of his little brother. When he learns Meg is coming back to town, he is thrilled. But it turns out that to reconnect with the girl he can’t bear to forget, he’ll have to face a past he can’t bear to remember.

Where did the idea come from?

Otis is a swimmer, so aspects of the story came from spending a lot of time at my son’s high school swim meets. On a deeper level, writing this novel was an exploration of a wound from my own past.

My mother lost a child before I was born, and like Otis’ brother in “Phantom Limbs,” he was 3 when he died. I have spent years thinking about the endless, insidious trajectory of grief because it was something that silently affected my childhood in ways I didn’t understand at the time.

What genre is your book, and why were you drawn to it?

Realistic/Contemporary Young Adult Fiction. I have always preferred realistic fiction. I seem to struggle with suspending disbelief – i.e., when teachers would read stories to the class when I was little, I was always the one waving my hand and asking, “But if they were trapped in the magic closet for three days, how did they go to the bathroom?”

Who is the intended audience?

Young Adults

What did you enjoy most about writing this book? What was the hardest part?

I loved writing Dara – Otis’s ball-busting one-armed sort-of-best-friend and self-assigned swim coach – even though she broke my heart.

I think the hardest part was probably getting my arms around Meg’s story, partly because it was so traumatic and partly because she was missing from my main character’s life for so long, and it took some work to fill in what those years were like for her.

How are you publishing this book and why (traditional/indie/self-publishing)?

I have been blessed with the opportunity to publish traditionally, with all the upsides and benefits of a good publisher behind me.

What is your education/background?

I have a bachelor’s in psychology from Knox College.

How/why did you decide to write a book?

It’s the one thing I always wanted to do.

Who are your favorite authors?

Some of my favorite authors include Carson McCullers, Nicole Krauss, Colum McCann, Kent Haruf and Jandy Nelson.

Have you written anything else?

Yes. I have two more YA novels coming out with Candlewick. “Relative Strangers” will come out in spring 2018, and “Starworld,” coauthored with “Of Fire and Stars” author Audrey Coulthurst, is slated for fall 2018.

What’s next for you?

I’m working on a fourth YA novel at the moment.

But Grimelda isn’t comfortable with all that neatness; how will she resolve the situation? Playful, creative rhymes tell an engaging story that will resonate with kids who groan at pleas of “time to clean up!”

The digitally-produced illustrations offer lots of clever details to pore over.

“Bad Kitty Scaredy-Cat”

By Nick Bruel

The latest entry in Bruel’s popular series contains new antics of the frenetic Bad Kitty, and showcases the alphabet four ways. Early on, we learn Bad Kitty wasn’t always a scaredy-cat. She used to be “an angry kitty,” “a brave kitty” and “a clumsy kitty,” all the way to “a zestful kitty.” What caused this newfound fear? A horde of trick-ortreaters dressed as characters from A to Z! But when she finds a mound of dropped candy (also A to Z) she decides to become a “bad kitty” and the alphabet once again records her moves, as we see she “Attacked the Alien,” “Clobbered the Clown” and “Overturned the Ogre.” The book is packed with fast-paced action, and kids will learn while laughing.

“Peep and Egg: I’m Not Trick-or-Treating”

By Laura Gehl; illustrated by Joyce Wan

The adorable and toddler-like Egg is hiding behind a bale of hay, because she’s scared to go trick-ortreating. Her equally cute friend, Peep, tries to help. Peep tries a few Halloween-related jokes, but they don’t convince her. Peep decides to halt the back-and-forth and leaves; Egg gets scared and searches for her. When they’re reunited, Peep tries a little more gentle coaxing, and Egg decides to give it a try.
