BY ANGEL SIERRA asierra@saukvalley.com 815-625-3600, ext. 5695 @_angelsierra

DIXON – Three new documents filed by Lee County prosecutors outline parts of what they intend to argue when the murder trial of Terry

E. Bobell, accused in a 32-year-old homicide, begins in August.

Bobell, 69, of Chillicothe, will go to trial Aug. 22. He will be the first of three people – and one of two brothers – to be tried in the Aug. 28, 1983, murder of 30-year-old Gary D. Dawson of Peoria, whose body was

found in a Franklin Grove hog pen.

Bobell is free on $100,000 bond.

Gordon K. Bobell, 66, also of Chillicothe, and Steven Watts, 58, of Berryville, Arkansas, formerly of Peoria, also are charged.

DIXON – The plot of land that Dixon native Kristen Zinke plans to call home was a field covered in weeds 2 weeks ago.

Since then, volunteer crews with Dixon Habi-

tat for Humanity have laid the foundation and raised the walls that will house the 27-year-old single mother and her three children.

“It’s exciting to see the home being put together from the ground up, and it will be great to see the finished product,” she said at the construction site Saturday.

THOMSON – As the heat index climbed into triple digits Saturday, a group of activists ended their 150-mile trek to protest isolation cells being built at the federal prison in Thomson.

Representatives from the Chicago-based organization Voices for Creative Nonviolence began walking from the Windy City to the village of 600 residents on May 28, traveling 10 to 19 miles a day and averaging about 8 hours per stretch.

About 50 people, ranging in age from 6 months to the mid 80s, participated in the walk, sleeping in churches and at campsites along the way.

In for the long haul was 73-yearold Razia Ahmed, a Pakistan native who traveled from her home in Scottsdale, Arizona, to be at the starting line in Chicago. She became involved with the organization in 2007.

“It’s been very hot, but I think about the prisoners, and conditions are much worse for them,” Ahmed said while holding a picket sign above her head for a reprieve from the sun.

The 25 protesters finishing the last mile to Thomson oppose several practices by the U.S. Bureau of Prisons, including plans to build as many as 1,900 isolation cells at Thomson, and talk of transferring some of the 91 remaining Guantanamo Bay prisoners to the facility.

Tim Meadors, of La Plata, Missouri, said solitary confinement is a form of torture that is amoral.

ORLANDO, FLORIDA | MASS SHOOTING AT NIGHTCLUB

Shooting the worst in U.S. history Official: Gunman professed allegiance to leader of Islamic State in 911 call ORLANDO, Fla. (AP) – It had been an evening of drinking, dancing and drag shows. After hours of revelry, the party-goers crowding the gay nightclub known as the Pulse took their last sips before the place closed.

That’s when authorities say Omar Mateen emerged, carrying an AR-15 and spraying the helpless crowd with bullets. Witnesses said he fired relentlessly – 20 rounds, 40, then 50 and more. In such tight quarters, the bullets could hardly miss. He shot at police. He took hostages.

When the gunfire finally stopped, 50 people were dead and dozens critically wounded in the deadliest mass shooting in modern U.S. history. Mateen, who authorities said had pledged allegiance to Islamic State in a 911 call shortly before the attack, died in a gun battle with SWAT team members.

Authorities immediately began investigating

whether the assault was an act of terrorism and probing the background of Mateen, a Omar 29-year-old Mateen American citizen from Fort Pierce, Florida, who had worked as a security guard. The gunman’s father recalled that his son recently got angry when he saw two men kissing in Miami and said that might be related to the assault.

Thirty-nine of the dead were killed at the club, and 11 people died at hospitals, Mayor Buddy Dyer said.

Jon Alamo had been dancing at the Pulse for hours when he wandered into the club’s main room just in time to see the gunman. “You ever seen how Marine guys hold big weapons, shooting from left to right? That’s how he was shooting at people,” he said.

“My first thought was, oh my God, I’m going to die,”

Chicago police increase security after Florida shooting

Craig Rubadoux/Florida Today via AP

FBI, Orlando Police Department and the Orange County Sheriff’s Office personnel investigate the attack Sunday at the Pulse nightclub in Orlando, Florida. A gunman wielding an assault-type rifle and a handgun opened fire inside a crowded gay nightclub early Sunday, before dying in a gunfight with SWAT officers, police said. It was the worst mass shooting in modern American history.

Alamo said. “I was praying to God that I would live to see another day.”

Pulse patron Eddie Justice texted his mother, Mina: “Mommy I love you. In club they shooting.” About 30 minutes later, hiding in a bathroom, he texted her: “He’s coming. I’m gonna die.”

As Sunday wore on, she awaited word on his fate.

At least 53 people were hospitalized, most in critical condition, and a surgeon at Orlando Regional Medical Center said the death toll was likely to climb.

The previous deadliest mass shooting in the U.S. was the 2007 attack at Virginia Tech, where a student killed 32 people before killing himself.

CHICAGO (AP) – Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel says the city won’t be intimidated after a shooting inside a Florida gay nightclub left at least 50 people dead.

Emanuel said in a Sunday statement that he looks forward to celebrating the city’s Pride Parade on June 26.

There’ll also be festivities next weekend.

Chicago police are increasing security, particularly in neighborhoods with gay bars and establishments.

Police leaders say they’re stepping up police presence “out of an abundance of caution,” and not because of any information regarding any threat in Chicago.

Chicago gay rights activists held a Sunday evening vigil. Illinois Gov. Bruce Rauner has called for flags to be flown at half-staff.

At Touche, a Chicago gay bar, bartender Matthew Hermann says he expects attendees of the Pride Parade to be more cautious.

Mateen’s family was from Afghanistan, and he was born in New York.

His family later moved to Florida, authorities said.

A law enforcement official said the gunman made a 911 call from the club in which he professed allegiance to the leader of the Islamic State, Abu Bakr alBaghdadi. The official was familiar with the investigation, but was not authorized to discuss the matter

Wanda was a homemaker and seamstress, extraordinaire creating many “Fontanine Originals” for herself and her daughters.

Wanda began her personal relationship with the Lord in her early teens.

What did Rauner say?

During a news conference last week, Rauner repeated claims that Speaker Madigan, and Cullerton, both Chicago Democrats, are “clearly working to create a crisis” by refusing to compromise on a budget for the year than ends June 30 or the next one. He believes they’re holding out for an income-tax increase without pro-business changes Rauner wants, such as a property tax freeze, restrictions on workers’ compensation and liability lawsuits.

He also alleges Democrats believe a crisis would lead to a “bailout” for Chicago’s financially beleaguered schools.

But then Rauner went a step further, saying Lisa Madigan “has tried to create a crisis – she has not succeeded yet – but she’s working in the courts to try to stop our hard-working state employees from getting paid.”

Is there a crisis?

Few could argue that the state is not already in a crisis, spending far more than it receives in tax revenue and watching a backlog of bills grow to more than $7 billion as social ser-

Legislature. A different appellate court upheld that decision.

Madigan asked the Supreme Court to consolidate the two cases and render an opinion, but it declined.

What’s changed?

A serendipitous ruling by the Illinois Supreme Court in March could have provided another opportunity for appeal by the attorney general over paychecks.

In a case dating to a past budget crisis, the court found that former Gov. Pat Quinn, a Democrat, was correct in 2011 when he withheld AFSCME pay increases because the Legislature had not appropriated money for it. With its 6-1 decision, the court shelved AFSCME’s claim that requiring an appropriation before honoring pay promises would emasculate binding conclusions reached in contract negotiations.

The decree seemed tailor-made for Madigan’s argument, but Madigan so far has not sought to exploit the high court’s AFSCME ruling to pursue the halting of payments. Her office has been tight-lipped about her options and whether she would take further action in light of the high court’s decision.

Witnesses corroborate testimony MURDER

CONTINUED FROM A1 t

According to the first two motions filed Thursday: The main witness to offer direct evidence against Terry E. Bobell is co-defendant Watts.

Watts will testify that on Aug. 28, 1983, all three men kidnapped Gary Dawson from his mother’s home in a Chevrolet Malibu; that the Bobells beat Dawson as Watts drove to Gordon Bobell’s home in Chillicothe; and that when they arrived, the brothers duct-taped his hands, legs, and mouth, and stuffed him into the trunk of the vehicle.

He’ll also testify that he left the Bobells in Chillicothe, and drove Dawson to Randy Wilson’s mobile home in Rock Falls. When Wilson found out Dawson was dead, he told Watts to take him to a pig farm/swine shelter in rural Franklin Grove.

Watts then removed Dawson’s clothing and duct tape, and he and Wilson carried the body over a fence and into the swine shelter. Dawson was discovered the next day on Aug. 29, 1983, by Kim Bryson.

A roll of duct tape and tape fragments were found at the scene. A latent fingerprint was found on the roll within a “brown, reddish” substance. It was determined that the print belonged to Gordon Bobell, and that the “blood-like” substance contained Dawson’s DNA. The state has multiple witnesses that will corroborate Watts’ testimony.

The motions also request that the detectives who worked on the case, both active and retired, be allowed to

testify how they were able to determine that there were three people involved in Dawson’s kidnapping and murder.

According to the third motion: On Oct. 1, 1986, Detective Ed Blake interviewed Timothy Dean Tattersall at the Peoria County Sheriff’s Department.

Tattersall said that in early 1983, Steven Watts told him about a feud with Dawson regarding a drug transaction between Watts, Dawson, and another man, Bill Watts, concerning a $90,000 debt.

Steven Watts told Tattersall that he and Dawson had been in several bar fights, and described an incident corroborated by another witness, Mike Raher. Tattersall said that in mid-1983, Steven Watts went to Tattersall’s house to drop off marijuana for him to sell.

That is when Steven Watts told Tattersall that he was going to “contract” two people to have Dawson “taken care of.”

Watts then asked Tattersall if he knew anyone who could do it. A couple days later, Watts went to Tattersall’s house in Washington, Illinois, and asked if he had found someone for the job.

Tattersall told him that he did not have anyone who could do the job.

Watts responded by saying that he had “a man by name of Bobell and his brother to handle it.”

After Dawson’s death, Tattersall went to Watts’ house where he recalled him “acting really nervous.” Watts told him that things did not go right; that he had only meant for Dawson to be beaten, but something had gone wrong and he had died.

On Aug. 24, 2011, Detective Sgt. David Glessner and Detective Jeff Dallas

GOING ON VACATION?

ILLINOIS Former Gov. Quinn calls for term limits CHICAGO (AP) – Former Illinois Gov. Pat Quinn, nodding to his petitionpassing days, kicked off a signature drive Sunday to impose a two-term limit on Chicago’s mayor and create a citywide elected consumer advocate position.

The binding referendums could be on ballots as early as November or in the 2018 cycle, meaning there’s potential to make Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel ineligible to seek a third term in 2019.

Quinn, a Democrat, insisted his effort wasn’t aimed at any individual, and getting nearly 53,000 valid signatures before an Aug. 8 deadline for November’s ballot would be challenging. He explained how he got his start in petition drives – including laying the groundwork for the Citizens Utility Board – and wanted to give residents a way to bypass the mayor and City Council.

“Part of my mission in life is not to sit on the sidelines, but to try and organize movements and give people a greater say in their government,” he said. “It’s a way to let fresh air in and let the people into City Hall.”

Steven A. Watts – 2013

Gordon Bobell

went to Glenwood, Iowa, to meet Tattersall. Tattersall stated he remembered the statement he gave to Detective Blake on Oct. 1, 1986.

Tattersall said that Watts knew the Bobells, and that they had worked for Watts as security during trips to Peoria to deliver large amounts of marijuana. He told detectives that he thought the first names of the “Bobells” were Gordy or Gordon, and that the brother was Terry.

Furthermore, the motion shows, Raher said that in July 1983, he returned to his Peoria home to find his garage door open, and saw Watts’ motorcycle laying on its side outside the garage with the message “You boys are done” scratched on it.

Raher said that after seeing the message he “had enough” and wanted Dawson beat up. Watts said that Gordon Bobell and others were going to help.

On Aug. 27, 1983, Raher rented a car and left for vacation in Colorado.

Prior to that, Watts told Raher that was the weekend that he was going to pick up Dawson. Raher was in Colorado until Sept. 3, 1983, and when he returned he found out about Dawson’s death.

On Sept. 16, 1983, Raher was contacted by Bill Watts, who let him know Steven Watts wanted to talk to him at noon that day at the pay phone at Keg & Cork Liquor store in Peoria. During that conversation, Bill Watts admitted to Raher that he

felt bad about what happened to Dawson, that he did not want it to go that far, and that he was sorry for putting Raher in that position.

In addition, on Sept. 12, 2011, Detectives Glessner and Dallas went to Kihei, Hawaii, to interview Raher. He acknowledged that he had given the statement on Sept. 20, 1983, and remembered giving it.

Raher and Watts discussed being tired of all the fights with Dawson, and that they wanted it to stop. Raher said that Steven Watts told him that he would be asking Gordon Bobell to beat Dawson. Raher said that he did not know him well, and only had seen him at bars, but that Watts was friends with him.

Raher said he did not know Gordon Bobell’s brother at all. He confirmed that Gordon Bobell did work for Watts as a driver.

Finally, the third motion requests that should the defense charge or infer through cross-examination that there’s some motivation for Watts to testify falsely or that his testimony is a lie, the state should be able to admit these statements.

Each man is charged with five counts of firstdegree murder, which is punishable by 4 to 100 years, or life in prison.

Each charge contains separate elements of the crime that must be proven: that whoever beat Dawson did so with intent to do great bodily harm; while knowing there was a strong probability of death or injury; while also attempting to kidnap him; while also committing unlawful restraint; or while also committing aggravated battery.

Each man can be convicted of only one charge.

He brings me trinkets and tacky accessories from his home that I do not display. My spare bedroom closet is filled with these unwanted items. He knows I can afford to buy the things I like.

Recently, he gave me two gifts – both new – neither of which I feel are appropriate for me. I appreciate the thought, but why would he continue to do this? He can clearly see they are not on display in my home, which would indicate I

don’t like or want them.

This man is not a cheapskate. He takes me for nice dinners, movies, brings flowers and chocolates as well.

I don’t want to hurt his feelings. Should I continue to accept the gifts and pretend I’m thrilled?

I don’t want to appear to

be ungrateful or spoiled, because he is kind and generous.

– Jane Doe in the South Dear Jane, Before this man spends any more money on gifts you put in a closet, have a talk with him. Explain that while you appreciate the thought behind the trinkets he gives you, you have different tastes, and suggest that the next time he wants to give you something that you pick it out “together.” (It doesn’t take a crystal ball to see a yard sale in your future.)

Dear Abby, My 85-year-old mother is in a dysfunctional relationship with my

50-year-old, alcoholic brother. He lives with her rent-free and abuses her emotionally and verbally.

It has gotten physical at times, although she says he has never hit her.

He was recently arrested for domestic violence against his girlfriend, who is a drug addict.

Mom has dialed 911 more than once, but the last time she told the officers it was a “mistake” because he’s on probation, and she didn’t want him to go to jail.

I’m at a loss about what to do because if I have social services look into it, I risk ruining my relationship with my mom, and she’s not in the best of health. Should my siblings and I take a stand,

Dear Abby, I am a Southern girl born in Virginia, now living in Florida. I have an accent.

Why is it that people make fun of your accent when you are from the South, but not from up North?

assumption is correct. I have heard people imitate Boston and New York accents as well as Southern accents. Years ago, an Australian gentleman used his “American accent” on me, and had me fooled for about 15 minutes. I assume people do this because they think it’s funny and not out of a desire to hurt anyone’s feelings.

Horror conjurs up a box-office win NEW YORK (AP) – The recent slump of sequels at the box office finally caught a break with “The Conjuring 2,” a horror sequel that topped weekend theaters with an estimated $40.4 million.

The Warner Bros. film, in which Vera Farmiga and Patrick Wilson play married paranormal investigators, opened nearly on par with its 2013 original, which was also directed by James Wan. That film debuted with $41.8 million and went on to earn $319 million globally.

The big-budget videogame adaptation “Warcraft,” a co-production between Universal and Legendary that reportedly cost $160 million to make, came in second with $24.4 million, according to studio estimates Sunday. Though it effectively bombed in

North America, “Warcraft” has been a hit overseas, particularly in China.

Estimated ticket sales for Friday through Sunday at U.S. and Canadian theaters, according to comScore.

1. “The Conjuring 2,” $40.4 million.

2. “Warcraft,” $24.4 million.

3. “Now You See Me 2,” $23 million.

4. “Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Out of the Shadows,” $14.8 million.

5. “X-Men: Apocalypse,” $10 million.

6. “Me Before You,” $9.2 million.

7. “The Angry Birds Movie,” $6.7 million.

8. “Alice Through the Looking Glass,” $5.5 million.

9. “Captain America: Civil War,” $4.3 million.

10. “The Jungle Book,” $2.7 million.

To cover or not to cover

Grizzwells by Bill Schorr

As you know, there are several aphorisms about bridge. For example, “second hand low” and “third hand high,” which are right most of the time. This week, let’s look at “cover an honor with an honor.”

Today’s deal is a textbook example. How does the play go in three no-trump after West leads the heart queen?

South is loath to open one no-trump with a low doubleton, but the bid describes his hand type and strength so accurately.

Declarer starts with seven top tricks: one spade, one heart, two diamonds and three clubs.

If the clubs break 3-3, that will provide an eighth winner.

Then, if the spade finesse works, the contract will make.

With the heart suit wide open,

South cannot afford to give up a diamond. So, declarer wins the second heart and cashes his top clubs. Now East must be careful, discarding a diamond.

Has East made an error,

throwing a diamond from an initial three-card holding (so diamonds are now 2-2)? South takes his diamond king, then plays a diamond to dummy’s ace. Again luck is out to lunch – West accurately throws a heart.

It is time for spades. Declarer calls for dummy’s queen. Note that if East covers with the king, South wins with his ace, then leads a low spade to dummy’s nine. That finesse works too, and declarer makes his contract with three spades, one heart, two diamonds and three clubs.

But if East plays low, the contract can be defeated.

This is the rule that works most of the time: Cover not the first but the last of touching honors. East ducks dummy’s first spade honor, but if South continues with the second, East covers. © 2016 UFS

Activists: Isolation leads to more violence, not less INMATES

CONTINUED FROM A1 t

“This would be the largest concentration of solitary confinement in the U.S.,” he said. “Being in a cell 23 hours a day doesn’t pacify anyone; it leads to more violence in society because they don’t know how to cope.”

Maya Evans, a London native and a peace activist in the UK, has worked with the Chicago organization for 4 years and said mass incarceration in the U.S. reinforces social inequality based on race and economic class.

“Detaining people indefinitely is one of the worst international crimes happening presently,” she said. “The prison system is becoming a modern form of slavery.”

The practice has also been denounced by the United Nations, she said.

Juan E. Mendez, the UN Special Rapporteur on torture, in 2011 called on countries to ban longterm solitary confinement practices, stating that prolonged or indefinite isolation exceeding 15 days can cause mental damage.

Buddy Bell, one of the lead organizers of the walk, advocated for Illinois residents to push lawmakers to support the Isolated Confinement

Restriction Act, a bill that would limit solitary time to 5 days in any 150-day period and prohibit the practice for prisoners who have disabilities or serious medical conditions, who are pregnant, or are younger than 21 or older than 55.

“This has been a great way to raise awareness and highlight this undesirable situation and a brutal reality that’s hidden away from our daily routines,” he said.

Dixon said he hopes to have construction completed and the house dedicated by Thanksgiving.

Zinke is present at the site each weekend, and she said the concept of becoming homeowners hasn’t quite sunken in for her children Jason, 11, Landon, 7, and Erin, 6.

“I think it will take

She and her family were chosen as the home recipients from a pool of about 12 applicants.

“All of this gives me a little more faith in humanity that there are projects like this, and so many people come together to make this happen,” she said.

Schroeder’s former players reunite for scrimmage

BY ERIC INGLES eingles@saukvalley.com 815-625-3600, ext. 5555 @Eric_Ingles

ERIE – Rachel Cobert dribbled up the right side of the court on a fast break, pushing the ball up against a pair of defenders, when one of them stepped up and tried to swipe the ball away for a steal.

It was her sister, Courtney.

Courtney Cobert, five of her former Erie teammates, and three former Sterling players gathered at the Erie High School gym on Sunday, called there by Julie Schroeder to scrimmage against the Gazette team ahead of Thursday’s SVM All-Star Classic.

Schroeder – coaching the Gazette team for the All-Star Classic – called Courtney Cobert last week to see if she could get a group together. Schroeder also contacted some of her players from her days coaching at Sterling.

“I just thought it would be fun to have the mix and just come out and have fun on a Sunday night,” Schroeder said. “They all love to play basketball, and what a cool experience for me to watch them play.”

The Gazette All-Star team features four players who helped Erie win a regional title as seniors, as Rachel Cobert will take the floor one more time alongside Emily Cox, Delaney Tegeler and Caitlyn Maloney.

“It’s really fun,” Rachel Cobert said. “When we found out all four of us seniors were going to be able to play one last time, we Philip Marruffo/pmarruffo@saukvalley.com were really excited for it. I think it’s going to Rachel Cobert (left) greets her sister Courtney at midcourt before a scrimmage Sunday be a really fun game. In this practice, seeing in Erie.

NFL | CHICAGO BEARS

Callahan an unknown no longer Former free-agent DB has worked way up to starting nickel corner

BY KEVIN FISHBAIN Shaw Media

LAKE FOREST – When OTAs began last season, Bryce Callahan lined up as the nickel corner with the fourth team. Then an undrafted rookie out of Rice who had never played the inside corner position, Callahan was playing with the bottom-of-the-roster players.

Whether it’s known as cliché or the line from Drake, Callahan’s progress over the past year to the point where he has spent OTAs as the team’s No. 1 nickel corner is quite the ascension.

“It’s a big change for me, starting from the bottom, free agent, all that stuff,” Callahan said last week. “Coming out here and actually playing with the 1’s, it’s an eye-opener. Hard work pays off.”

Callahan’s “Welcome to the NFL” moment came in Week 9 last year, his first NFL start in San Diego on Monday night. He notched a pass defensed in the 22-19 win, and another the following week in the win over the Rams.

In nine games and three starts – Callahan missed three games in December with a quad injury – the rookie had one sack, four passes defensed, and an impressive four tackles for loss, good for fifth-most on the team.

The Bears’ Bryce Callahan (37) tackles Packers receiver Randall Cobb during their Thanksgiving game last season in Green Bay, Wis. After joining the Bears as a rookie free agent last year, Callahan has ascended to the starting nickel cornerback spot.

Back in summer of ’77 T

he summer of 1977 was a glorious time to live in Chicago.

Anything seemed possible.

Everyone seemed happy.

The Cubs and White Sox were both in first place in their respective divisions, and the dream of an all-city World Series was real.

Of course, it wasn’t to be.

“We thought it might’ve been our year,” said White Sox starter Steve Stone, now a team broadcaster. “At least the way it started out.”

Giants broadcaster Mike Krukow, a rookie pitcher on the ’77 Cubs, called it “a magical time” to be a baseball fan in Chicago.

“We fell short, and you sensed the disappointment,” Krukow said. “But you also won their hearts, and you felt that, too.”

The ’77 Sox were counting on slugger Richie Zisk, whom they acquired from the Pirates in December for promising young pitchers Rich Gossage and Terry Forster, to carry the offense before leaving as a free agent.

They also acquired Oscar Gamble and his giant Afro from the Yankees in April in the Bucky Dent deal, and Eric Soderholm, a Twins third baseman who had missed all of the ’76 season with a knee injury.

The Sox were coming off a 64-win season, worst in the American League, and Tribune beat writer Richard Dozer predicted a .500 finish.

“They probably will finish fifth unless Bill Veeck, their hard-working president, can do something to give them a presentable outfield,” Dozer wrote. “Richie Zisk is the major hope for recovery of fan interest in Chicago, and Veeck is banking heavily on a fast start to bankroll an even better club in ’78. He needs a good year to stay in business.”

The Sox were so strapped for cash the returning players wore the same uniforms they had worn in ’76. The games were shown on Ch. 44, a UHF station with poor production values that few watched outside of Sox games.

Former Tribune TV critic Gary Deeb wrote in August that when Sox starter Ken Kravec threw out the first pitch in one game, “viewers were treated to a candid shot of the first-base umpire scratching himself. …

Creator by a nose WinStar horse edges Destin at wire to win Belmont

BY RICHARD ROSENBLATT AP Racing Writer

NEW YORK – The finish was dramatic, even without a Triple Crown on the line.

Creator found an opening in the stretch and ran down Destin in the final stride to win the $1.5 million Belmont Stakes by a nose – the closest possible margin of victory. Jockey Irad Ortiz Jr., pointed to the sky in an appropriate winning salute given the horse’s name.

“Today was perfect for us, by inches,” said Steve Asmussen, who will be inducted into racing’s Hall of Fame this summer at Saratoga. “Being the victor of the Belmont Stakes will look good on that plaque.”

The 50-year-old trainer has won more than 7,300 races, including the Preakness with Curlin in 2007 and Rachel Alexandra in 2009. He was taken off the Hall of Fame ballot last year, though, because of allegations made by PETA about the way he treated his horses. He was later cleared by racing authorities in Kentucky and New York.

The 1½-mile “Test of the Champion” wrapped up the Triple Crown a year after American Pharoah’s run to glory in becoming the first horse in 37 years to sweep the Kentucky Derby, Preakness and Belmont. A different horse won each leg this time – Nyquist took the Derby, and Exaggerator won the Preakness.

Belmont Stakes With Nyquist winning the Kentucky Derby and Exaggerator winning the Preakness, the Triple Crown races have three different winners for the 7th time in the last 11 years.

This was Creator’s day, a hot, sticky one at Belmont Park with temperatures in the mid-80s.

The attendance announced by the New York Racing Association late Saturday night was 60,114, far below the 90,000 that showed up last year.

Exaggerator, the 7-5 favorite in the field of 13, raced well back in the pack. He moved into contention at one point, but just didn’t have his usual finishing kick. He wound up 11th.

A 3-year-old gray colt, Creator came flying down the stretch as Destin tried to hang on to the lead. He almost made it, but settled for second, with Japanbased Lani a closing third.

“I’m glad to see him put that number up; they came to the wire together,” Asmussen said of the Creator-Destin showdown.

“Irad gave him a dream trip. The horse ran super.”

The winning time for the 1½ miles was 2:28.51. The first three finishers were gray colts.

Governor Malibu was fourth, followed by Stradivari, Brody’s Cause, Cherry Wine, Gettysburg,

Suddenbreakingnews, Trojan Nation, Exaggerator, Seeking the Soul and Forever d’Oro. Creator was one of several closers in the field, and the race set up perfectly for him. Gettysburg was a late addition to the field.

Both are owned by WinStar Farm and trained by Asmussen, with Gettysburg a front-runner who set the stage for the thrilling finish.

After leading the field early on, Gettysburg dropped back after a mile and Destin took charge into the stretch. With Ortiz urging him on, Creator stormed into contention after running near the back of the pack, and won for the third time in 10 career starts.

Ortiz, one of the nation’s leading riders, won his first Triple Crown race.

“He was calm and I just waited for somewhere to go,” Ortiz said.

“When he got clear, he started running.”

Unlike Exaggerator.

Kent Desormeaux, the Hall of Fame rider aboard the colt, second-guessed his decision to ask Exaggerator to wait behind the pace. When he tried to make a move, the horse trained by his brother, Keith, just didn’t have it.

“I don’t know if there would have been any difference in the outcome,” Kent Desormeaux said. “When I picked him up at the quarter-pole to try and win the race, there was nothing there.”

Joey Logano takes the checkered flag to win at Michigan International Speedway, Sunday, heading up the youngest top-three in NASCAR history.

15th Sprint Cup series victory of his career in the 15th race of a year that has included 10 different winners.

Elliott finished a career-best second, but wasn’t in the mood to celebrate because he blamed himself for poor restarts.

“I definitely messed up,” he said. “Putting it in the correct gear would be a good start.”

Larson fell one place short of matching his best performance.

BROOKLYN, Mich. – Joey Logano plopped into a seat, getting a much-needed break, when the 26-year-old driver found out he was just a part of history.

Logano pulled away from the pack to win the FireKeepers Casino 400, and was followed by 20-year-old Chase Elliott and 23-year-old Kyle Larson, the youngest top three in NASCAR Sprint Cup history.

“That’s pretty cool,” he said when informed of the feat Sunday.

The trio’s average age of 23 was younger than the 24.7 of the top three finishers at a race in 1951, and two races the previous year.

“The future of NASCAR is present,” Logano said. “It’s going to be big. It’s amazing to see.”

NASCAR’s latest aerodynamic package made its debut, part of the sport’s plan to create more competitive racing.

“We need more people in the stands.”

The new aero setup included, for the first time in more than a decade, a reduction in the downforce to 1,500 pounds, and shortening of the spoiler to 2.5 inches.

“It’s not a whole lot different than the other package,” Earnhardt bristled from the garage after a crash knocked him out of the race.

“I think we talk about packages too much.”

t “It’s pretty fun to be able to coach them one last time,” Schroeder said.

“When we practiced the other night, it was pretty fun to see they knew a lot of the plays we are going to run because of that.”

The squad of alumni the All-Stars were facing in Sunday’s scrimmage included former Sterling players Steph Echebarria, Nicole Renner and Gabby Sandoval, and former Erie players Tess Burns, Courtney Cobert, Lexi Floming, Desirae Lawson and Bailee Clausen.

“An All-Star game is really about having fun, but we thought it would be fun to run some set plays because these kids all know them,” Schroeder said. “Some of the Sterling kids that are coming were some of my most favorite kids that I’ve coached. My point guard from Erie the first year, it’s fun to see her back in the gym too.”

That point guard is Leela Thomas Parrish, a Hope College student back on the basketball court Sunday for the first time since she graduated from Erie in 2015.

“She texted me and

For Thomas Parrish, it was like a high school reunion. She was scrimmaging as part of the All-Star team to balance out the numbers, meaning she was once again passing the ball to Rachel Cobert and Emily Cox. “I’m not playing at college, so going through a year without playing basketball was heartbreaking,” she said. “Now I’m back, it’s like home again.”

Thomas Parrish was more than happy to help

Schroeder out, as was Sandoval, the North Park University guard who played for Schroeder at Sterling.

“I was really happy, because she was one of my favorite coaches,” Sandoval said. “It’s just a fun opportunity to play for her again.”

For the Erie and Sterling alumni, it was only a single appearance back on the court to help the AllStars prepare for Thursday, but Sandoval hopes the Gazette team can take something away from it.

“It can be really fun,” Sandoval said. “I played last year, and I hope I can show them how fun it can be.”

Penguins players celebrate after beating the Sharks 3-1 in Game 6 on Sunday in San Jose, Calif., to win the the Stanley Cup.

Penguins claim Cup Crosby named MVP as Pittsburgh beats Sharks

BY JOSH DUBOW AP Sports Writer

SAN JOSE, Calif. – A turnaround season for the Pittsburgh Penguins ended with Sidney Crosby once again holding the Stanley Cup. Crosby set up Kris Letang’s go-ahead goal midway through the second period, and the Penguins won the fourth Stanley Cup in franchise history by beating the San Jose Sharks 3-1 in Game 6 of the final Sunday night.

“It wasn’t easy getting here, especially the way things started out,” Crosby said. “The first half wasn’t easy, and I think everyone just stuck together, kept going and found some momentum there in March, and continued to keep it going.”

Brian Dumoulin opened the scoring with a power-play goal, and Patric Hornqvist added a late empty-netter. Matt Murray made 18 saves to give the Penguins a championship 7 years to the day after they beat Detroit for their third title.

The game ended when Crosby cleared the puck the length of the ice with

San Jose on the power play, setting off a wild celebration. All that was left was for Crosby to accept the Conn Smythe trophy as playoff MVP, and then the Stanley Cup. “We tried to keep fighting and slowly started to turn things around,” he said. “Everyone has a part in this. It feels really good to win your last game of the season.”

Logan Couture scored the lone goal for the Sharks, whose first trip to the final in their 25-year history ended two wins short of a title. Martin Jones made 24 saves, and finished as San Jose’s best player for the series.

Three nights after squandering a chance to become the first Pittsburgh team to win a title in front of the home fans in 56 years, the Penguins finished the job on the road just like they did in Minnesota (1991), Chicago (1992) and Detroit (2009) in past title runs.

The championship in Detroit was supposed to be the first of many for a team led by players like Crosby and Evgeni Malkin. But a series of concussions that led Crosby

to miss almost an entire season and a half, and a run of early playoff exits that included twice blowing 3-1 series leads prevented a second celebration in the Crosby era until now.

This didn’t seem like it would be a season to remember back in early December, when the Penguins were near the bottom of the standings in the Eastern Conference and coach Mike Johnston was fired.

But led by coach Mike Sullivan, the Penguins recovered to make the playoffs as the secondplace team in the Metropolitan Division. Pittsburgh knocked off the New York Rangers in the first round, Presidents’ Trophy-winning Washington in Round 2, and then rallied from a 3-2 series deficit to beat Tampa Bay in the Eastern Conference final.

“It’s been an incredible year,” Pittsburgh owner Mario Lemieux said. “We had a rough start the first couple months of the season, then we made some changes. ... It’s hard to win this Cup. We’re going to enjoy it for a while.”

NBA FINALS

No Green for Game 6 Golden State forward suspended after scuffle

BY JON KRAWCZYNSKI AP Basketball Writer

OAKLAND, Calif. – Through all of the criticism and accusations of dirty play, Draymond Green vowed to keep pushing as hard as he possibly could to help deliver another championship to Golden State.

That win-at-all-costs mentality has suddenly opened the door for LeBron James and the Cleveland Cavaliers to get back into the NBA Finals, and added an extra edge to a burgeoning rivalry.

Green was suspended for Game 5 tonight after the league assessed a Flagrant 1 foul for striking James in the groin during a scuffle in the closing minutes of the Warriors’ Game 4 win Friday.

James and Green got tangled up on the play, and James stepped over Green as the two got up – a move widely viewed as a show of disrespect in league circles.

Green then swiped at James’ groin in retaliation, and threw another jab at the four-time MVP that did not connect.

“There’s no way you can say this is an acceptable act,” Kiki VanDeWeghe, the NBA’s executive vice president of basketball operations, told The Associated Press in a phone interview.

Especially for a player like Green, who entered the finals one flagrant foul or two technicals short of a mandated suspension.

“History probably didn’t help Draymond,” Warriors center Andrew Bogut said. “When they reviewed it, that’s probably what helped them get to their decision.”

Commissioner Adam Silver put the hard-nosed, emotional leader of the defending champions on notice before the start of the rematch with Cleveland when he said that in the offseason, the Competition Committee reviewed Green’s penchant for wildly flailing his legs on jump shots and rebounds.

“You have to do what you think is right for the play,” VanDeWeghe said, “and unfortunately, Draymond put himself in this position.”

The Warriors’ Draymond Green (left) and the Cavaliers’ LeBron James have words during the second half of Game 4 of the NBA Finals on Friday.

Green was suspended for Game 5.

Golden State leads the series 3-1, and has easily been the better team.

But losing a player of Green’s caliber could tip the scales just enough.

Green is a plus-71 in the last two NBA Finals, serving as the heartbeat of the Warriors defense, and a critical playmaker on the other end of the court.

Warriors coach Steve Kerr spoke to Green earlier in the postseason about keeping his emotions in check, but they again got the better of him at a crucial time.

“Draymond’s success is based on playing like that,” Bogut said. “He plays physical and chippy, and he’s a talker. That’s what makes him who he is. It’s hard to tone that down when it’s in you. We don’t blame him for it.”

MLB ROUNDUP

Lester silences Braves in rout Cards sweep in Pittsburgh; White Sox sputter, lose to Royals

SULLIVAN

By the Associated Press

Jon Lester stopped himself as he started to say he hoped the Cubs could keep winning at their current pace.

That would be asking for too much.

Lester earned his fourth straight victory after allowing no earned runs in seven innings as Chicago beat the Atlanta Braves 13-2 on Sunday to win their final series at Turner Field.

The Cubs (43-18) have won 14 of 18, and improved to 39-2 when scoring at least four runs. They moved 25 games over .500 with their best record through 61 games since 1907, when they won the World Series.

“It’s been fun to be a part of, and hopefully we can just keep ... obviously the pace we’re on is pretty crazy,” Lester said. “Not a lot of us have answers for what’s going on.

Enjoy it while we can.”

Lester (8-3) also is on an impressive personal run. He has allowed only one earned run with no walks in three wins this month, lowering his ERA to 1.89. He gave up five hits to the Braves, his high mark of the month, with seven strikeouts.

Cardinals 8, Pirates 3:

Several players who have given the Pirates trouble for years helped St. Louis finish a rare sweep in Pittsburgh.

Mike Leake pitched seven effective innings, Matt Holliday homered, and the Cardinals cruised to a victory Sunday.

Randal Grichuk also homered for surging St. Louis, which has won five consecutive games and swept a series at PNC Park for the first time since August 2009. Holliday and Yadier Molina each had three hits.

“We just tried to come here and play the game the right way and tried to win games, and obviously we haven’t

GOLF ROUNDUP

Henderson tops Ko on playoff birdie Berger picks up first Tour win; Langer wins Senior Players on 12-foot putt By the Associated Press

Brooke Henderson beat top-ranked Lydia Ko with a birdie on the first hole of a playoff Sunday in the KPMG Women’s PGA Championship after overcoming a three-shot deficit on the back nine.

The 18-year-old Canadian, ranked No. 4 in the world, closed with a bogey-free 6-under 65 to match Ko at 6-under 278.

Ko finished with a 67.

In the playoff on the par-4 18th, Henderson hit her second shot from 155 yards to 3 feet, while Ko’s second from farther back in the fairway left her with 20 feet. Ko missed to the left, and Henderson tapped in to cap a week that started with a hole-in-one on her fourth hole of the tournament, and ended with a major championship.

In regulation, Henderson saved par on 18 with a 12-footer, moments before Ko missed a 4-foot birdie try on the par-3

17th. Henderson also made a long eagle putt on the par-5 11th, and birdied the par-3 13th. She won last year in Portland, Oregon, for her first tour title.

Henderson became the secondyoungest winner in a major championship, with Ko the youngest last year in the Evian Championship in France.

FedEx St. Jude Classic

Daniel Berger won the FedEx St. Jude Classic for his first PGA Tour title, shooting a 3-under 67 to hold off Phil Mickelson, Steve Stricker and Brooks Koepka by three strokes.

The 23-year-old Floridian had never been in a final pairing until Sunday.

When Mickelson, with his 42 career PGA Tour titles, closed within a stroke, Berger birdied three of his next four holes, highlighted by a 32-foot putt on the par-3 14th that pushed his score to 13 under, and his lead to three shots.

Berger finished at 13-under 267. He became the 13th first-time winner on tour this season.

Constellation Senior Players Championship

Bernhard Langer won the Constellation Senior Players Championship for the third straight year, holing a 12-foot par putt on the final hole for a onestroke victory at windy Philadelphia Cricket Club.

The 58-year-old German star won his seventh senior major title – his fifth in the last 11 majors – to tie Hale Irwin for second place on the career list, a victory behind Jack Nicklaus.

Three strokes ahead at 2 under entering the round on the difficult Wissahickon Course, Langer closed with a 3-over 73 to finish at 1-over 281 – the highest winning score in the history of the event first played in 1983.

Callahan now combining skill with experience UNKNOWN

CONTINUED FROM B1

t “Just my competitiveness.

I just want to make plays,” Callahan said about the attitude to make plays in run support, adding that he was unfazed by a concussion suffered late in a loss to Minnesota, and kept sticking is nose into the play. “I really don’t think about it, to be honest. I don’t like to scare away from anything.”

The Bears asked the 5-foot9 Callahan to add a little muscle in the offseason and continue to work on his footwork and coming out of breaks. The extra film study and nuances of playing the NFL corner spot have been learning experiences for Callahan, who has good mentors in Tracy Porter and defensive backs coach Ed Donatell.

Former Cubs, Sox remember atmosphere

“I’ve learned a lot [from Porter] when it comes to reading tendencies of the offense, your footwork on press game. He’s really taught me to slow the game down,” Callahan said. “…

[Donatell’s] helped me out a lot. When I first came here, I just knew how to cover people. I didn’t know how to read tendencies and do all that. He’s changed my game tenfold.”

The Bears neither drafted nor signed a prototypical slot corner. Fourth-round corner Deiondre’ Hall is better suited for the outside, though if his performance merits playing time, the Bears could always slide Porter inside.

For now, though, Callahan has the first crack.

“It sure builds up confidence,” he said. “It lets me know they have trust in me.

If they think I can do it, I’ve gotta think I can do it.”

Tribune News Service

The Bears’ Bryce Callahan (37) celebrates after teammate Willie Young (97) intercepted the ball against the Rams last November 15 in St. Louis. Callahan is playing with more confidence now that he has been promorted to the starting nickel cornerback position.

t “The average Soxcast probably triggers more living room cursing than those relentless Bert Weinman Ford commercials during Ch. 9’s late-late show,” the story continued.

But the South Side Hit Men kept winning, and fans began tuning in.

“The ’77 season was really entertaining because we could really hit,” Stone said. “I think we got shut out for the first time against Anaheim in one of those early games. Ralph Garr started off the game with a triple and he was stranded at third. We never got close to scoring. But when you go into September without getting shut out again, you have yourself an offensive powerhouse.

“Bill Veeck, realizing he was a little short on cash, had to make some trades. He brought in Richie Zisk, he brought in Oscar Gamble. They hit the ball out of the park consistently. But Bill Veeck, to the day he died, said if he had a bit more money he would’ve gotten a shortstop to replace Alan Bannister, who hit very well but had a bad shoulder. He couldn’t get the ball from shortstop to home, and made 40 errors that year.

“Unfortunately Kansas City caught the White Sox in the middle of August.”

The key showdown occurred in late July at old Comiskey Park. The Sox took the first three games, including the first game of a doubleheader on a Sunday in which they scored three in the 10th, winning 5-4 on Garr’s RBI single.

A crowd of 50,412 went crazy. At one point, Veeck left the press box to try to stop a brawl in the stands, winding up with a bloody lip.

The Sox could have taken a 7½-game lead over the Royals with a victory in the nightcap, but the Royals won 8-4, then ripped the Sox for taking curtain calls after home runs, a new phenomenon at the time.

“The White Sox look like fools doing that,” Royals outfielder Hal McRae said afterward, defending his decision to jog slowly around the bases after a home run and doff his cap. “The White Sox say what? That their fans made them do it? That’s crap. The fans are just a bunch of front-runners.”

Nearly four decades later, Stone still blames manager Bob Lemon for “going with the ‘scrubeenies’” in the nightcap.

“I felt like we had our foot on the throats of Kansas City,” he said. “We could have taken the lead to 7½ games, but lost the second game. Then Kansas City got on a great run and never looked back.”

On the other side of town, the Cubs had turned to 62-year-old manager Herman Franks, who had been out of baseball for 6 years. After trading batting champion Bill Madlock to the Giants for Bobby Murcer because Madlock wanted to be paid more, owner P.K. Wrigley also was trying to get by on the cheap.

Murcer, Bill Buckner and Steve Ontiveros were the offensive threats, Rick Reuschel led the rotation, and young closer Bruce Sutter provided the lateinning dominance that gave them a chance to win every day.

“I was a rookie, and it was unbelievable,” Krukow said. “Trotting out there, I thought this was the way it was, what the big leagues was all about. The place was packed, the energy was off the charts. When I watched the older guys who had been there before, you saw how much it meant to them, because it always wasn’t that way.

“Here was this little team we put together, and we had good pitching and we were playing good baseball and winning games.”

The high point may have been July 28, when the Cubs beat the Reds 16-15 in 13 innings at Wrigley Field on a wild, windy day when 11 home runs left the park and Franks was ejected.

Murcer and Jose Cardenal were forced to play infield, and Reuschel got his 15th victory after being forced to come on in relief.

Like the Sox, the Cubs also collapsed as the summer wore on. Krukow said the death of Wrigley and his wife that year led to some dark times for the team after ’77.

“They had to get money to pay for the [estate] taxes, and a lot of it came out of the organization for the next 4 or 5 years,” he said. “It was lean. But ’77 was a glorious time. We ran out of gas.

We needed more help. We didn’t get it going into the latter part of the season.

“But I’ll never forget how special it was to play in that city, in that ballpark, for those people. It was something that would stay with me the rest of my life.”

Maybe this is going to be another of those great Chicago summers ... though a better ending would be nice.

LAWN & GARDEN

Get everything in order.

Monday, June 13, 2016 GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- Do whatever you can to improve your surroundings.

You don’t have to spend money to have fun or win approval from others. You have more to offer people than mere cash.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -Make plans and follow through with them. Your ability to formulate an idea and put it into play will help you gain confidence and the support you need to succeed.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- Don’t play games. Make up your mind and stick to your plan. You’ll gain respect and impress a loved one if you are straightforward about what you want.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- Bide your time. Don’t get emotional when dealing with partnership matters. Keeping a clear head will be necessary if you want your ideas to be considered. Don’t fear being different.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- You need to make your plans financially feasible. It’s OK to dream, but efficiency and expense will be factors if you aren’t realistic. Build slowly. Start with simple, moderate undertakings.

PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -- Demands that are difficult to meet will be made. You should put more money and effort into an investment that will help you get ahead. Call in favors if it will help you reach your goal.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -Talk to people who can help you make your dreams come true. A change in the way you present what you have to offer will pay off. Romance is encouraged.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- You should beef up your resume to fit the current economic trends, but be honest about what you can offer an employer. Opportunity will be yours, so you’d better be prepared. A partnership is questionable.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- Get moving. Too much pondering and not enough action will leave you standing in the same place. Make a move based on what your intuition tells you. Romance is in the stars.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- Proceed with caution. You will face opposition if you are too vocal regarding your intentions. Get everything up and running before you share your plans. Network to gather information, not to give it.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- Don’t give in to someone in order to keep the peace.

Someone using emotional tactics is best treated firmly if you want to come out on top.

Ask questions if something appears inconsistent.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- Weigh what’s being offered carefully. An empty promise will take up valuable time. Invest in your skills, talents and innovative ideas, and work on your own projects.
