SANDWICH – City leaders are hoping to educate voters about what they say is a needed sales tax increase before the April election after a nearly identical referendum failed in the fall.

In November, Sandwich voters rejected a proposal to increase the sales tax rate by a percentage point on most goods sold in the city. About 1,630 voters – or 55.01 percent – opposed the referendum.

Twenty days after the election, the City Council unanimously approved putting the referendum back in front of voters April 4 in the consolidated election.

Sandwich Mayor Rick Olson said he thinks the measure can pass this time

if voters have more information about the sales tax proposal.

“We’ve got to get the facts out,” he said.

The proposed 1 percent sales tax is expected to bring in about $700,000 more a year. Olson said 65 percent of that money would come from people who live outside the city’s boundaries but shop at Sandwich businesses.

The 1 percent sales tax would be added to the existing 6.25 percent sales tax for most purchases, but Olson said it wouldn’t include vehicle sales and thus wouldn’t affect automobile dealerships.

The sales tax revenue will be used to cover the cost of running the city.

Olson said the city has an operating budget of about $6 million a year. Last

year, it ran a deficit. The city also plans to use some of the money for its new police station, a project expected to cost about $4 million, Olson said.

Sandwich’s sales tax is lower than many surrounding communities, Olson said. In DeKalb and Sycamore, the sales tax rate is 8 percent, according to the Illinois Department of Revenue.

Without the money, Olson said the city would have to make difficult decisions about how to maintain existing city services and may have to reduce service levels. The city’s nonunion employees didn’t get a raise last year, he said.

Sandwich also wants to become less reliant on state funding given the uncertainty of Illinois’ finances, Olson said.

Plano Chamber honors Just In Time SANDWICH RECORD Each year the Plano Area Chamber of Commerce selects a “Business of the Year” recipient from its membership.

In addition to being a Chamber member in good standing, nominees must demonstrate unique or innovative approaches to business, provide excellent customer service and show strong community involvement.

Based on those and additional criteria, the Plano Area Chamber of Com-

merce selected Just In Time as the 2016 recipient of the “Business of the Year” Award.

The award was presented to owners Justin and Janeen Norquist at the Chamber’s recent annual dinner.

Just In Time began as a one-person home-based residential HVAC business in January of 2010. In subsequent years, the company has expanded to include commercial HVAC, refrigeration, plumbing and carpentry with 23 employees.

In addition to providing the area with quality service at affordable prices, Just In Time is actively involved in area communities.

The company is not only a member of the Plano Area Chamber of Commerce but also the Sandwich Area Chamber of Commerce, Yorkville Area Chamber of Commerce, Rochelle Chamber of Commerce and the Hinckley Business Association.

Just In Time is located at 115 S. Wolfe St., Sandwich.

DeKalb County home sales, prices rose in ’16 SHAW MEDIA DeKALB – With fewer properties on the market, homes sales increased last year, and sale prices gained 6.1 percent in DeKalb County.

Sales of existing homes in DeKalb County increased 3.2 percent in December and ended the year up 3.7 percent, according to data released by the Illinois Association of Realtors. The median sales price in DeKalb County increased 6.1 percent to $151,250 for the year, up from $142,500 in 2015.

The inventory of homes for sale in the county continued to fall in December, as it had for most of the year. In December, the number of homes on the market in the county dropped 8.5 percent to 344, down from 376 in December 2015. The Realtors association report didn’t provide year-to-

date figures for local housing inventory.

Properties listed last year sold at a quicker pace. The average number of days on the market until sale fell 15.4 percent last year to 66 days, down from 78 in 2015.

Statewide, the story was similar. Despite a dip in home sales in December, both sales and median prices finished in positive territory in 2016, ending a year marked by tight inventories and continued demand, the IAR said in a news release.

“Home sales numbers likely would have been stronger in 2016 had there simply been enough inventory to satisfy demand,” IAR President Doug Carpenter said in a statement. “That said, Illinois home sellers are finding in many cases they can get a premium price and that they are able to sell their homes quickly, a trend we see extending into 2017.”

Paranormal investigators host event at Sandwich Opera House

By KATRINA J.E. MILTON kmilton@shawmedia.com

Katrina J.E. Milton – kmilton@shawmedia.com

Members of the Midwest Ghost Society and 30 members of the public participated in a paranormal investigation Jan. 28 at the Sandwich Opera House. During a previous investigation, audio recorders captured voices, including a young child’s voice, that could not be explained.

The second floor was a community center, where shows by traveling troupes, lectures, recitals, high school graduations, political rallies, temperance meetings and church gatherings were held.

Since the initial investigation in January 2016, the MGS has held four guided paranormal investigations open to the public at the opera house.

On Jan. 28, 11 of the group’s 16 members led the society’s fifth guided investigation for 30 members of the public.

“We hosted this event and other public investigations to introduce

“We want people to get involved, learn about our equipment and have a good experience.”

Lemire started MGS, which is based in Plano, in 2010. Since its founding, the MGS has traveled across the country to investigate public locations, businesses and private residences. For some of the locations that are farther away, the group spends the night or even a few days in the building while they investigate.

Ray Buchanan Jr. of Newark, one of the MGS’ original members, described the investigations as fun, social group outings.

SANDWICH – Chris Roe believes in the paranormal. She has heard tales of real-life experiences and has witnessed firsthand what she describes as “things not quite what they appear to be.”

Roe is the executive director at the Sandwich Opera House, 140 E. Railroad St. in Sandwich. After having one or two odd experiences at work, she decided she would try to determine what was happening.

But instead of calling the Ghostbusters, she invited members of the Midwest Ghost Society to the opera house to conduct a private investigation.

“Once, as cleanup for an event was ending, I was told that the lights in the basement were on,” Roe said. “I knew nobody had been down there because the door was locked. When I went downstairs, the lights were on. I don’t know how that happened.

“Also – this was years ago – but the opera house had a problem with flickering lights. As the maintenance man was fixing the problem, he unplugged the lights. They were still flickering,” she said.

Others have reported of unnatural phenomena occurring in the building, including random drops in temperature and people saying they can feel an aura. Michelle Lemire, founder of the MGS, said that during the private investigation, audio recorders captured voices, including a young child’s voice, that could not be explained.

At least one funeral service was held in the opera house, that of Sandwich Mayor Julius M. Hummel in 1930.

Then-mayor Hummel had commissioned the building of the Sandwich City Hall and Opera House, which was completed in 1878.

When first built, the building housed all the functions of city government, including city offices, the police department, a jail and the fire department.

Something to Think About

Jeff Beverage Director RELIGIOUS ASPECTS OF FUNERAL A funeral service should reflect the values of the deceased and the closest survivors. If the family is religiously oriented, the funeral service can be a moving spiritual occasion.

Most likely, you will want the service conducted at a church or funeral home with your clergyman officiating. Either you or your funeral director can make these arrangements.

The religious funeral is directed toward meeting your spiritual needs. You will want it to be public, not private, so that the members of your religious community can share with you their emotional and spiritual support and participate in the affirmation of belief.

If you do not profess a specific religious belief, you may want to consider having what is called a “humanistic” or “secular” service.

SM-CL0401796

This should also be public to grant to your family and friends the opportunity to share their love and sorrow with you.

SYCAMORE – The mother of a Rochelle man who died from a heroin overdose while in custody last year at the DeKalb County Jail has filed a wrongful death lawsuit against the county and the sheriff’s office.

Sophia Thomas, the mother of Brandon A. Washington, 28, of Rochelle, filed the lawsuit last week. An autopsy showed a heroin overdose caused Washington’s death in February 2016.

Thomas’ lawsuit claims that jail officials allowed inmates to bring drugs into the jail, failed to properly search inmates, failed to seize the drugs and failed to respond fast enough after Washington took the heroin. An Illinois State Police investigation earlier cleared jail officials of wrongdoing.

An inmate was somehow able to smuggle a “significant amount” of ­h eroin into the jail, said Thomas’s

I suspect that most of us really would like to believe that race doesn’t matter as much as it used to. And in some ways, that’s a fair statement.

Until Jan. 20, a black man sat in the Oval Office in the White House, a black man has been chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, two black women in both Republican and Democratic administrations have served as National Security Advisors, and we’ve become used to seeing all manner of black celebrities, from sports heroes to TV stars.

But the legacy of slavery and the pernicious effects of Jim Crow still persist, as we see in those all-too-frequent headlines.

On the positive side, it’s been a while since we had our last major race riot. The most recent disturbances, with residents of black neighborhoods rioting, were caused by real and perceived unfairness, bias and prejudice in the justice system.

In fact, I suspect many of us tend to think of riots concerning race and

and Chicago during the Civil War, involved whites attacking blacks.

One of the most violent race riots in U.S. history happened here in Illinois in East St. Louis in 1917. At least 50 persons were killed (the actual toll was probably much higher) and 240 people were reported injured. Damage was set at $1,400,000 ($26 million in 2016 dollars).

Trouble had been brewing in East St. Louis for months, inflamed when 470 black workers were hired to replace whites who had gone on strike against the Aluminum Ore Company.

On July 1, citing a need to maintain public order, city police and National Guardsmen visited homes of black families to demand their weapons.

Most families complied, even though throughout the day, black residents Photo provided received warnings that rioting would The failure of authorities to protect innocent black citizens during the 1917 St. Louis riot begin that night.

Second-graders at Prairie View Elementary School learn interesting groundhog facts when reading a make-and-take groundhog book. Did you know a baby groundhog is called a kit?

• REFLECTIONS

Continued from page 9 The mob pursued him and killed him.

Not all the mobs were comprised of men. Scott Clark, a black teamster who was next to be killed, was stoned to death by women in the mob as he was dragged through the streets by a rope around his neck.

Most black families decided their only hope was to get to the Municipal Free Bridge and cross the Mississippi to St. Louis, Missouri. Many made it to safety, but many more did not, and were hung, shot or burned to death by the mob.

Among those who did make it was Daisy Westbrook. Westbrook was the director of music and drawing at Lincoln High School in East St. Louis.

She described her experiences in a letter written on July 19, just 17 days after the riot, recounting the terror of the city’s black residents: “It started early in the afternoon.

We kept receiving calls over the ‘phone to pack our trunks and leave, because it was going to be awful that night. We did not heed the calls, but sent grandma and the baby on to St. Louis and said we should ‘stick’ no matter what happened. At first when the fires started, we stood on Broadway and watched it. As they neared our house we went in and went to the basement. It was too late to run then.

They shot and yelled some thing awful.

“Finally they reached our house.

At first, they did not bother us (we watched from the basement window), they remarked that ‘white people live in that house, that is not a nigger house.’ Later, someone must have tipped them that it was a ‘nigger’ house, because, after leaving us for

about 20 min. they returned and started shooting in the house, throwing bricks and yelling like mad ‘kill the nigger, burn that house.’

“It seemed the whole house was falling in on us. Then some one said, ‘they must not be there; if they are they are certainly dead.’ Then some one shouted ‘they are in the basement. Surround them and burn it down.’ Then they ran down our steps. Only prayer saved us, we were under tubs and any thing we could find, praying and keeping as quiet as possible, because if they had seen one face, we would have been shot or burned to death. Sister tipped to the door to see if the house was on fire.

She saw the reflection of a soldier on the front door and pulled it open quickly and called for help. All of us ran out then and was taken to the city hall for the night. The next morning, we learned our house was not burned, so we tried to get protection to go out and get our clothes and have the rest of the things put in storage. We could not, but were sent on to St. Louis. Had to walk across the bridge with a line of soldiers on each side in the hot sun, no hats and scarcely no clothing.

“On Tuesday evening [July 3] at 6 o’clock our house was burned with two soldiers on guard. So the papers stated. We were told that they looted the house before burning it.”

Riots of any kind, especially those with racial connotations, are horrible things. During this year’s Black History Month, it might be useful to contemplate the bitter racial history of our nation and why it’s so hard for us to, as Rodney King once put it, to just get along.

Vietnam Veterans Memorial replica will be on display locally SHAW MEDIA The Oswego Police Explorer Post and the Kiwanis Club of Oswego will be hosting an all-you-can-eat pancake breakfast from 8 to 11 a.m. Feb. 11 at Oswego High School.

All proceeds will be donated to help fund the Vietnam Memorial Moving Wall that is coming to Oswego June 29 through July 3.

The Moving Wall is a half-size replica of the Washington, D.C., Vietnam Veterans Memorial and has been touring the country for 30-plus years.

When John Devitt attended the 1982 dedication in Washington, he felt the positive power of The Wall.

He vowed to share that experience with those who did not have the opportunity to go to Washington.

Advance tickets for this event are $7 and are available online at Eventbrite.com or you can purchase them at the Oswego Police Station and from your local Kiwanis Club and Explorers Post members. You also can get tickets for $8 on the day of the event at the door.

Breakfast will include sausage, your choice of beverage and all-you-can-eat-pancakes.

There also will be information about the Moving Wall and a coloring station to “show your love” for our local veterans.

Chris Roe, executive director of the Sandwich Opera House, lowers the lighting in the theater before the Midwest Ghost Society begins a paranormal investigation on Jan. 28.

• GHOST SOCIETY

Continued from page 3 “I love being in a goal-oriented team environment,” Buchanan said. “Many of us have a love of history and historical places. There are a few locations that we visit regularly. The events are fun, but we use scientific methods in our investigations to both disprove and prove if anything is out there. I am both a believer and a skeptic, but it’s hard not to believe.”

Some examples of phenomena the MGS has reported and can’t explain include seeing spheres of light in dark rooms, having chairs pushed over and hearing mysterious noises such as whispers, screams and whistling.

Tammy Hawke of Hinckley, who has been with the MGS for more than five years, said she had her first paranormal experience after having a nightmare as a child.

“I remember waking up from a horrible nightmare, and there was an old lady sitting at the foot of my bed,” Hawke said. “She told me, ‘It’s OK, honey, go back to sleep.’ That’s when I realized that ghosts were real. I work for Fermilab. I believe very strongly in using science to debunk what we see. However, some things can’t be explained by science.”

To try to debunk phenomena, the group uses electromagnetic field sensors, REM-pods with temperature detection, video cameras with night vision capabilities and audio recorders.

It also uses a converted AM/FM radio to generate white noise, hoping to capture electronic voice phenomenon, or EVPs. Setting up and taking down the equipment and wires is the most time-consuming task of investigations.

Reviewing the collected video, audio and data can take the MGS two weeks or longer.

“When we investigate, we ask the spirits or entities questions and record audio to see if there are any EVPs,” said Joseph Lemire, lead investigator and

Michelle’s husband. “Humans can usually only hear around decibels 20 Hertz and louder. Dogs and electronics can pick up the lower decibels. But sometimes, our technology can’t explain what we hear or see. Most of us have theories about what they are, though.”

When the group was investigating the Tinker Swiss Cottage in Rockford, Hawke had a direct response when she asked aloud, “Can you say my name?”

“Right now, we don’t know what they are or why we can see or hear these things,” Hawke said. “Maybe they are from another dimension or are souls or energy left behind when a person passes on. Some people call them ghosts, but we use the terms spirits or entities. We have also witnessed shadow figures, dark shadows with no features.”

Attendees of the opera house event had their own theories. David Lemmons of Aurora attended with his son and two family friends.

“I’ve never done a ghost hunt before, but I’ve seen them on TV and they’re really interesting,” Lemmons said. “I haven’t seen a ghost, but there’s always a first time for everything.”

Amateur investigators Lisa Seifrid of Hinckley and Lynette McNamara of Batavia used an EMF sensor and a camcorder during the sessions. Both Seifrid and McNamara heard odd noises during the investigation and will be reviewing their recordings to determine what they heard.

“We’ve had experiences in the past, seeing what looks like a person when nobody is there and hearing disembodied voices,” Seifrid said. “I’m Catholic, and I’ve talked to my priest about it. I definitely believe. I want to help them communicate what they want to communicate and move on.

“This is our first time in the opera house, but my aunt was from the area and always commented that it was haunted,” she said. “We have to look at our evidence to determine if what we heard was anything, but the event was fun, ghosts or not.”

DeKALB – Steve Miller remembers how as a boy his family used to come to DeKalb County multiple times a year to view the pristine farmland in the area.

The threat of these farms being compromised by the development of wind turbines was one of the reasons that Miller, who lives in South Grove Township outside Kirkland, decided to speak out against the construction of two wind testing towers in DeKalb County during a Jan. 26 public hearing.

“I see this as a door opening up to bring in something that’s going to drive tourism away from this area, and it’s inevitably going to do the same for all those people with the lifelong dream of living here,” Miller said.

San Diego-based EDF Renewable Energy has applied for a special-use permit to construct the 200-foot towers to measure the velocity and direction of wind in two fields in the northwest part of the county, to see

EDF Renewable Energy Development Director P.J. Saliterman attends the public meeting Jan. 26.

Continued from page 15 ­ hether it is economically feasible to w construct turbines in the area.

P.J. Saliterman, EDF’s development director, said it can take at least 12 months for initial results, but if it was found that it would be profitable to construct wind towers, the testing poles would stay up for another 18 months after building began.

As part of the application process, the hearing was held in the DeKalb County Administration Building in Sycamore, where opponents of the towers overflowed the conference room.

Teresa Phillips, who lives the near sites where the towers are proposed, said that county officials should deny the permits before the talks on wind testing snowball into the construction of hundreds of wind turbines.

“I don’t see why we should put a test tower up if, in the end, it’s going to affect so many of my neighbors and myself,” Phillips said. “I wouldn’t want a wind turbine in my front yard, back yard or sidewalk, so why even test if we don’t even want this in our neighborhood? I believe this would cause terrible value to my property.”

Saliterman said the Federal Aviation Administration has ruled that the towers would pose no hazard to aircraft.

In addition, they would create no

light, toxic runoff or noticeable noise and would not create any lasting nuisance to the community because the closest structures are hundreds of feet away from the towers.

As these temporary testing towers could be in place for years, DeKalb County Planning, Zoning and Building Director Derek Hiland asked hearing officer Dale Clark, who presided over the meeting, to consider a reasonable date for removal of the towers.

Sandra Feldt of DeKalb said that the planning department should develop a master plan on wind energy to assess

the commercial impact on the community.

“It seems to me we’re standing on the edge of a transition from an agribusiness county to an energy business county, and I think it would behoove the planning commission to see what kind of effect wind energy would have on the county as a whole,” Feldt said.

The Planning and Zoning Committee is expected to meet Feb. 22 to discuss the project, with the County Board making a final decision on granting the permits at a later date.

Continued from page 17 Fifth-grade BUG Roll

It has been a winter of cold and warm conditions so far, which has meant an off-and-on mixture of snowy, icy and sometimes clear roads and sidewalks. Although not a record-breaker yet this year, winter can create challenges when driving or walking anytime.

Most winters mean a widespread use of de-icers on roads and sidewalks.

To be prepared, most communities, and many homeowners, stock up with de-icing materials to be prepared for a long season. Choosing a de-icer can be a challenge.

Many communities now use de-icers which contain less or no salt. Many are also adjusting their application rates, timing and methods to reduce negative impacts of salt applications. Some of the potential impacts include damage to nearby turf and plants from salt spray and runoff, damage to wildlife and aquatic habitat, contamination of drinking water, and damage to vehicles and pavements. These impacts can happen from salt use on roads, application on commercial sites or even if you are using salt-based de-icers at home.

CONSERVATION @HOME John Church Tara Neff, water resource assistant at The Conservation Foundation, has been helping to lead an educational effort to reduce some of the issues associated with the use of salt-containing de-icers. For homeowners, she suggests some simple practices to reduce or prevent any damage, such as using a non-chloride de-icer, which are available at many stores. Also, use the “just enough” principle – use only enough to clear high traffic areas and don’t spread it beyond the treatment area.

Another common sense tip is to clear snow from the driveway or sidewalk before applying any de-icer so it is not moved off the site with the snow.

Try to avoid putting a de-icer on top of snow which will melt and carry it off the home site; sweep up any excess or misapplied undissolved material when possible after the storm and save it to be used again; and don’t shovel snow

treated with chloride-containing materials onto plants or into storm sewers.

Some other actions may also be helpful, such as covering plants that are susceptible to salt spray from roadways, using salt tolerant plants if needed in highly susceptible areas and not sweeping or washing de-icers into the street or gutter.

If you are interested in more information about de-icing alternatives, go to The Conservation Foundation website at theconservationfoundation.org and then go to the “Protecting Our Rivers and Streams – It All Starts with a Raindrop – Dealing with Snow and Ice” section for links to more information and fact sheets. Other water-quality-related information can also be found on the website, or by phoning 630-553-0687, ext. 204, or 630-428-4500.

Also check your local town’s website or call their public works department to find out how they are choosing de-icers.

Couple creates charitable fund Created to honor the charitable wishes of Bob and Pam Bowman, the DeKalb County Community Foundation introduces a new donor advised fund, the Bob and Pam Bowman Fund.

With the passing of Bob in November 2016, this fund will continue to make memories in his name.

Bob was born and raised in DeKalb and Pam in Waterman. Both grew up in DeKalb County and attended Waterman High School.

Married as high school sweethearts, the Bowmans spent the next 53 years learning, living and contribut-

ing to the community they love.

In early 2016, the Bowmans met with a few close friends to explore and discuss options for their generosity. Their desire was to give back and help others in the immediate community. As a local organization serving DeKalb County, the Community Foundation was a great fit and aligned with their desires. On Nov. 3, the Bob and Pam Bowman Fund was established. “On Nov. 28, a few short weeks after creating the fund, Bob’s courageous four-year battle with cancer ended,� said a news release from the foundation. “His memory will live on forever

in the number of lives he influenced.

And new memories will be created through the continued generosity of the Bob and Pam Bowman Fund.� “At the Community Foundation, we are extremely grateful to the Bowmans for taking their idea of community and making us a partner in it,� said the news release. “Through this donor advised fund, their philanthropy will continue on forever.�

If you would like to make a gift to the Bob and Pam Bowman Fund or would like to explore creating a fund of your own, contact Executive Director Dan Templin at 815-748-5383 or dan@dekalbccf.org.

Save Something for a Rainy Day “Lazy hands make for poverty, but diligent hands bring wealth. He who gathers crops in summer is a prudent son, but he who sleeps during harvest is a disgraceful son.� —Proverbs 10:4-5 NIV

SM-CL0405335

T

he advice to save something for a rainy day probably has its roots in agricultural traditions, since we can’t harvest our crops in rainy weather, and too much rain can threaten the entire crop. Likewise, most people’s moods are better during sunny weather than when it’s raining, which suggests that during the sunny times we feel our resources are growing and somehow diminishing during the rainy times. Though most of us no longer work in agriculture, we still feel how apt the advice is. It is natural to feel more secure when our bank account is growing and our investments are doing well, and to feel anxious as our bank account dwindles and our investments take a hit. While we shouldn’t worry too much about our bank accounts or other material things—after all, it shows faith and trust in God when we can live like the birds of the air and the lilies of the ďŹ eld—we must know that winter is coming, and if you haven’t stored up some food for the winter (or some money in the bank), you’ll soon be begging a handout.

And while there is nothing inherently wrong with asking for help, it’s always better to be on the giving rather than the receiving end of a handout. So be diligent in your work, and create a plan, such as a direct deposit, to save a little bit from every paycheck for that rainy day. – Christopher Simon

Rick Stellwagen retired from professional kickboxing about a decade ago, yet he remains quick with his hands, feet and one-liners.

As with many in his sport, the 46-year-old Plano resident balanced kickboxing with a career in the workforce. Stellwagen is a safety coordinator for Elburn-based Electric Conduit Construction by day, and he senses you’re grinning.

“What’s the irony of that? Stellwagen said. “A safety coordinator, and I used to beat guys up.”

Stellwagen compiled a combined 44-1 record as an amateur and professional, but leave it to a recent phone call to humble him more than most opponents did. Stellwagen will be inducted into the Illinois Martial Arts Hall of Fame during a banquet in Glen Ellyn on April 1, an honor that includes a plaque, polo shirt and dinner.

The plaudits of numerous supporters from his past and present may be

the best course. Rocky Troutman, a 2009 inductee who once trained Stellwagen at his Sugar Grove gym and now welcomes him as a volunteer instructor, calls Stellwagen “by far the best fighter and most natural fighter” he has trained in 42 years in martial arts.

Stellwagen began as a would-be practitioner of karate in his youth, but he and his brother, Brian, frequently were disqualified from tournaments for over-aggressiveness.

Sensing their frustration, an onlooker suggested kickboxing, which steered Stellwagen to Rocky’s Dojo and Gym, now a two-level, 6,400-squarefoot training facility in Sugar Grove.

Although Stellwagen debuted as an amateur at the admittedly “late age” of 26, an unfettered passion for kickboxing helped him account for lost time.

“As he started fighting and doing more fights, he started coming down in weight; he started getting in better shape; he started training more; he Photo provided started running,” Troutman said.

Rick Stellwagen of Plano will be inducted into the Illinois Martial Arts Hall of Fame during Winning naturally followed.

“Technically, I never really lost as a banquet on April 1 in Glen Ellyn. “Technically, I never really lost as an amateur or pro,” an amateur or pro,” said Stellwagen, said Stellwagen, noting his lone amateur defeat came via disqualification. “I was never

Continued from page 25 noting his lone amateur defeat came via disqualification. “I was never knocked down. I was never knocked out. I was never really hurt, other than one time. I had a lot of pride in that.�

That notorious “one time� came in 1999, when Manson Gibson landed a devastating spinning back kick to Stellwagen’s liver in a bout for the International Kickboxing Federation Pro Full-Contact light heavyweight United States title.

Writhing in sudden pain, Stellwagen slumped to the canvas. “I thought we were going to have to stop so I could help him get his foot out of me,� Stellwagen said.

Rob Zbilski, a longtime trainer who worked Stellwagen’s corner that night and had helped book the fight with Gibson, a future world champion, hardly was surprised at what came next. “Most people would have went down [for good],� Zbilski said. “And Rick took it and pressed on and ended up beating this guy who had over 100 wins.�

Stellwagen earned titles in two other federations and had 17 knockouts in 22 professional bouts.

A Plano resident for the past 15 years, he still is no stranger to

Rocky’s, volunteering his expertise to up-and-coming fighters on Wednesday nights. Stellwagen sometimes brings his young son, Joshua, for exposure to self-defense training, but notes he is not pushing him into fighting. Joshua loves baseball and is a third-generation left-hander.

Meanwhile, Stellwagen’s wife, Jill, realizes her husband’s dedication hasn’t dissipated and doesn’t mind him continuing to ply his kickboxing craft. “Just giving back to Rocky, who spent all those hours with me helping me to be a better fighter,� Stellwagen said. “I just felt that it’s only fair that I give back and help out.

And plus, I really enjoy it. And not to mention, it’s way easier on the body helping somebody.�

Fatigue fades and injuries heal, but such gestures can endure through time. As Troutman awaits the splendor of another Rocky’s-affiliated Hall of Famer – his father, Ron, was inducted in 2012 – he tells others not only of Stellwagen’s fighting skill, but also of his exemplary humility. “Rick, after he stopped competing, he was very much wanting to give back, and that’s a great attribute for a fighter,� Troutman said. “A lot of them are so self-absorbed in themselves that they don’t give back. So I think that’s very admirable.�

DOWN THE GARDEN PATH Richard Hentschel cookies and pies makes its way to the rear of the shelf and there it stays, or that big bag of birdseed sits too long before it gets used.

Once found, a very thorough cleaning of the pantry to remove any infected products is the first step. This is going to be any foodstuff containing flour, regardless of being highly processed or not. Examples include oatmeal, cake and pancake mixes, pasta products and any breakfast cereals – literally anything that contains flour as an ingredient. All those go in the garbage.

The next step is cleaning the pantry shelves, cracks and crevices. Use the vacuum hose to get into every crack and crevice. Those Indian meal moth larvae crawl away and pupate away from what they eat. Do not forget to vacuum the ceiling area in the pantry, too. Wait to put fresh shelf paper down until you know the pests are completely gone.

Those foodstuffs that are left need

Be vigilant over the next four to six weeks looking for the flying Indian meal moth, their larvae and the small grain beetles in the remaining products. It is not uncommon to see the moths, but without being able to find a food source to lay their eggs, you will have broken the life cycle.

In the future, buy flour-containing products in a quantity that will be used in a month, not long enough for another outbreak to occur. While it is winter, you can store the big bags of pet food and birdseed in the unheated garage and feed the pets and birds from there. Feed the birds this spring until the bag is empty.

Thursday, February 9, 2017

Back in December, this column talked about doing our best to prevent an outbreak of any one of several kinds of pantry pests in the home.

Some of what was shared included sealing bulk amounts of dry pet foods, including the birdseed used all winter for outdoor feathered friends, and limiting, whenever possible, the amount of flour for baking during the holidays.

Even with the best attempts, occasionally these pantry pests show up anyway. Identification is a good place to start, and from there understanding the pest life cycle guides us through the removal process.

The most common pantry pests are a moth and a couple kinds of grain beetles. One is easier to spot than the others. The Indian meal moth adult will fly around the pantry or cupboard and circle light fixtures at night, while the beetles do not. The beetles do not stray away from their food source.

Both the moth and the beetles have a complete life cycle: adult, egg, larva (worm) and pupa (cocoon). This plays into your removal and management of these pantry pests. Typically, these pantry pests establish themselves when unused grain products linger in the pantry. The flour used for baking

Indians split 2 vs.

Manteno, Marian C.

Setting their sights on history

Pick up ninth seed in Kaneland Sectional

By JOSHUA WELGE jwelge@kendallcountynow.com

By JOSHUA WELGE jwelge@kendallcountynow.com Jackson Smith and his Sandwich boys basketball teammates passed the time before Monday practice perusing the program’s records in a glass display.

It was a fitting image.

The Indians are charging toward an achievement the program hasn’t reached in a generation.

With its 77-37 win over Manteno last Friday, Sandwich inched closer to its first conference championship since 1992.

“It would mean a lot. That was obviously one of our goals coming into the season,” said Smith, a 6-foot-3 senior guard. “We have to keep working toward it. We have five games left. We have to play every game like it’s our last.”

Heading into this week Sandwich (13-9, 6-0) and Plano (17-5, 7-0) were the only teams yet unbeaten in the Interstate Eight Conference. Peotone and Streator have two losses.

Coincidentally, the Indians just so happen to host their neighbors from Plano in the regular season finale Feb. 24.

First things first, though. Sandwich hosts Lisle this Friday.

“We’re looking forward to that Plano game, but we do have to take it one game at a time,” Smith said. “We can’t take anyone lightly. That’s what happened in the conference tournament, and we lost.”

Sandwich did indeed stub its toe in the conference tournament, losing in the quarterfinals as the top seed.

In the big picture, though, this year has been a marked improvement from last season’s 14-16 finish.

“Both teams had a lot of talent,” Smith said. “We’ve just put it all together this year.”

Smith has certainly put it together.

He was promoted to the varsity as a sophomore. Halfway through last season, Smith moved into the starting lineup.

An all-conference player as a junior, Smith seems to have taken it to the next level. He’s averaging right around 16 points and six rebounds per game.

“He doesn’t lead by just talking to the guys, he leads by example. In some of our toughest games this year he’s been the guy that’s really stepped up,” Sandwich coach Brennan Callahan said.

“The last few summers he’s done everything we could have asked of him.”

Smith’s inside-outside game is what makes him tough in Callahan’s estimation. Smith is the first to admit he’s driving much more and shooting less from the outside than he did as a junior.

“He can drive it, he shoots 35 percent from the 3-point line and he’s our best post player, too,” Callahan said. “He’s a gamechanger. Teams have to guard him in different ways and he’s opening things up for his teammates which is what we need.”

Smith also guards opponents’ best player, something he probably wouldn’t have anticipated as a sophomore.

“When I came up as a sophomore [defense] was one thing I really don’t think I was that good at,” Smith said. “I’ve tried to get a little stronger.”

Smith and Jordan Isham scored 15 points, Derek Murphy 12 and Jimmy Braddish 10 for the Indians against Manteno.

After Lisle, Sandwich hosts Wilmington on Feb. 14 and is at Streator on Feb. 17 before the Plano game.

“We have to be ready to go every night,” Callahan said. “These guys know what’s on the line.”

Thursday, February 9, 2017

Sandwich came away with a split decision last weekend.

The Indians beat Manteno 56-36 in the Interstate Eight on Thursday, then lost to Marian Central 49-37 on Saturday.

Sarah Ness scored 16 points, Maddie Dawson added 13 and Maddie Robinson had 12 points against Manteno for Sandwich, whose 56 points were a season-high.

The Indians also had three players score in double figures for the first time this year.

Sandwich trailed throughout the first quarter, but pulled ahead 13-10 by the end of the period and led the rest of the way. The Indians outscored Manteno 10-2 in the third quarter to open up a double-digit lead.

“We had seven girls score in the first half alone,” Sandwich coach Chris Johnson said. “When we just ran our offense quickly, without hurrying, the openings were there.”

Robinson led the way for Sandwich against Marian Central with 10 points.

The Indians trailed 10-7 after a quarter, and 27-20 at half.

“We were able to stay close for most of the game,” Johnson said.

“Marian had a really good point guard who saw the floor well and looked to get assists more than even score, and she made us pay.

She exploited our help defense.”

Sandwich wraps up its regular season on Thursday at home against Plano.

The Indians also have earned the ninth seed in the upcoming Class 3A Kaneland Sectional.

Sandwich starts postseason play at 7 p.m. on Feb. 14 against 10th-seeded IMSA at the IMSA Regional.

EYES ON THE PRIZE

Dale leads five Sandwich sectional qualifiers, eyes elusive state bid

By JOSHUA WELGE jwelge@kendallcountynow.com It didn’t take Tommy Dale long to look ahead.

Barely 10 minutes removed from winning a regional championship, Sandwich’s senior 145-pounder already had the next step in mind.

It’s easy to see why.

Dale, now a four-time sectional qualifier, is still after an elusive first state bid.

“Sectionals is a whole different story, especially with the one we’re going to have at Sterling,” Dale said. “We have to prepare ourselves mentally and physically for anything, take nothing lightly. We have to wrestle like it’s our last match.”

Dale wrestled like a kid whose eyes are firmly on the prize at Saturday’s Class 2A Plano Regional, dominating his weight class to lead five Sandwich wrestlers into the sectional at Sterling.

He’ll be joined there by teammates Cael Schindlbeck (106), Tyler Schindlbeck (113), Josh Fraser (120) and Dylan Boyd (170). Ottawa won the team regional title.

Dale (30-3) was the top seed at Plano, ninth in the state at 145 in the latest Illinois Matmen rankings. He wrestled like it, too.

He pinned Ottawa’s Nick Stehl in 1:23, then won a decisive 13-1 major decision over LaSalle-Peru’s Lucas Burris in the final.

“That last match, I wish i could have got some bonus points, maybe get a technical fall or a pin,” Dale said, “but when a kid is just sitting there there’s not much you can do.”

Dale was joined as regional champion by Cael Schindlbeck (27-7), who followed up his conference championship with another impressive showing.

Seeded third, he beat second-seeded Ayden Sines of LaSalle-Peru 11-4, then top seed Luke Fleming of Ottawa 7-4 in the final.

In the process, he turned the tables on a lengthy history between him and Fleming.

“I’d wrestled him since like the fourth grade and I lost to him every single time,” Schindlbeck said. “I felt a lot more confident. I’ve grown so much as a wrestler.”

Fleming rode Schindlbeck out for a 2-0 lead after a period, but Schindlbeck came with four points in the second.

“He’s got a little confidence,” Sandwich coach Josh McCarty said, “and he’s just run with it.”

Older brother Tyler Schindlbeck (22-6) took second at 113, getting a 6-4 overtime decision over LaSalle-Peru’s Seth Antle before getting pinned by fifthranked Rafael Munoz of Ottawa in the final.

At 120 Fraser (9-6) lost a 6-5 decision to Ottawa’s Riley Hanson, but came back to win a 2-0 decision over Manteno’s Nathan Ledesma for third. It followed up Fraser’s second place at conference.

“He’s had a great end to his senior season,” McCarty said.

“We bumped him up from 106 to 120 and he’s really held his own.”

At 170 Boyd (21-5) like Dale a senior and returning sectional qualifier, was wrestling for the first time since spraining a shoulder at the Batavia Invite Jan. 14.

He looked sharp, pinning Ottawa’s Trey Fritz in 32 seconds and Streator’s Mike Gubbels in 55 seconds before taking a pin to Manteno’s Stevie Silva in the final.

“We got to see what we’re working with with Dylan going into sectionals,” McCarty said.

That sectional at Sterling is generally accepted to be one of the toughest in Class 2A. “This time of year you’re going to hit some hammers.

Either you’re the hammer or you’re going to get hit,” McCarty said. “Guys like Tommy and Dylan, they’ve weathered four years of high school wrestling.

They’ll be ready to go.”
