Retirement prompts closure ofdowntown St. Charles jewelry store
Former Ray’s Tavern site in STC set toreopen under new name, management
By ASHLEY [email protected]
ST. CHARLES – JP Jewel-ers – the second tenant to moveinto the First Street project indowntown St. Charles – is clos-ing shop.
Owner Jim Petterec, whohas been in the industry for47 years, announced last weekhe is retiring, a decision he de-scribed as “bittersweet.” But,the 63-year-old said, “it’s timefor me.”
Petterec relocated JP Jewel-ers to St. Charles from Bartlettin 2009, when the First Streetproject had only one othertenant, the now-shuttered IlGiardino del Dolce Italian bak-ery.
“I’ve always loved FirstStreet,” Petterec said.
He signed the lease hopeful
the full vision of First Streetwould come to fruition withina few years, he said, but the
recession delayed its progress.The city celebrated the ground-breaking of the First Streetproject’s third phase, which isacross the street from JP Jew-elers, in September.
Petterec has gotten a “phe-nomenal” response to his re-tirement announcement andhas been “inundated withwonderful well wishes,” hesaid, calling the support “over-whelming and very humbling.”
He plans to close the storeshortly after Jan. 1, he said,indicating a desire to help cus-tomers throughout the holidayseason.
“We don’t want to abandonpeople,” he said.

ST. CHARLES – The formerRay’s Evergreen Tavern siteis weeks away from reopeningunder different managementand a new name.
The St. Charles Liquor Con-trol Commission on Mondayrecommended approval of anew Class B liquor license forThe Evergreen Pub and Grill,an establishment that also isseeking a 2 a.m. permit.
The St. Charles City Coun-cil is expected to vote on thematter next week.
“I’m in complete supportand wish you well,” Mayor RayRogina said.
The representatives fromThe Evergreen described theeatery as a pub and grill witha supper club-themed menu of-fering homemade pizza, steaks,chops, tenderloin, a fish fry andcraft beers.
It should open within thenext few weeks, they said.
Business manager JulieKnebel said those at The Ever-green have been busy readyingthe establishment, at 1400 W.Main St., for opening by givingit a fresh coat of paint and newflooring, among other cosmeticchanges. Evergreen intention-ally was kept in the name as anod to the property’s history,she said.
In his summary to the com-mission, St. Charles PoliceChief James Keegan said theownership team has 35 years
of experience in the restaurantindustry, and this will be theteam’s fourth location. The oth-ers are in Gilberts and Chica-go, he said.
Knebel said they previouslyoperated River Lane Pub andEatery in Geneva. Ray’s Ever-green closed in September. Ina Facebook post dated Sept. 13– its most recent update – theestablishment apologized to itsfriends and patrons and refer-enced issues with the Depart-ment of Revenue.

School District 303moves graduation to DeKalbBy ASHLEY SLOBODA
ST. CHARLES TOWNSHIP– St. Charles School District303 is taking a break from theSears Centre.
Beginning with the Classof 2017, the district will holdgraduation for St. Charles Eastand North high schools at theNorthern Illinois UniversityConvocation Center in DeKalb,the school board unanimous-ly decided Monday during its
meeting at Ferson Creek Ele-mentary School.
The contract is through2019.
At $12,500, the annual rateis less than the district’s ar-rangement with the HoffmanEstates facility, which wouldcost $32,559 annually with a 7.5percent increase in year three.The rate for the ConvocationCenter is fixed for all threeyears.
The district, however, mustchange the date of the gradua-
tion ceremony.Instead of holding gradua-
tion the Sunday of MemorialDay weekend, it will be the firstSunday in June: June 4, 2017;June 3, 2018; and June 2, 2019.
Superintendent Don Schlo-mann joked the juniors willgroan over the change.
“Another week of schoolthey’ll have,” he said.
Before voting, several boardmembers noted the $20,000 inannual savings, which Presi-dent Steve Spurling described
as “substantial.”The three-year cost is
$37,500 for the ConvocationCenter and $100,118.93 for theSears Centre, according to in-formation given to the board.
The decision wasn’t madewithout some dissatisfaction.
“It’s very far,” board mem-ber Kathy Hewell said, notingNIU students from the east sideof St. Charles likely room at theuniversity than commute.
Indeed. According to infor-mation provided to the board,
the change in venue will re-quire students and their fami-lies to travel farther: 25 miles toDeKalb versus 17 miles to Hoff-man Estates, or about six extraminutes of travel time.
As a suggestion, board mem-ber Lori Linkimer said the dis-trict could offer transportationto the Convocation Center likeit did the first year graduationmoved from the football fieldsto the Sears Centre.
“Just throwing it out there,”she said.
Residents to see water, sewer rate increases over 5 yearsBy BRENDA SCHORY
GENEVA – Geneva resi-dents will see rate increasesfor water and sewer startingDec. 1, as aldermen Mondayunanimously recommendedapproval of a five-year plan toincrease long-term revenuestability.
An average residentialuser of 700 cubic feet of watera month will see an increaseof $5 by Dec. 1, to $58 from $53.
The subsequent increas-es for that user will be $63 in2017, $67 in 2018, $70 in 2019
and $71 in 2020, according to arate structure recommendedby Dave Hyder, Burton andAssociates, who did the five-year rate study for the city.
“The primary objective ofa rate study is sustainability,”Hyder said.
The rates also needs tohave a fair and equitable dis-tribution of costs, allowingthe city to meet its environ-mental compliance require-ments, Hyder said.
Water use is declining allover the U.S., Hyder said, evenas people are conserving.
The result is ongoing re-
ductions in total water sales,he said, requiring the rate in-crease.
“We continue to see de-cline in water sales,” Hydersaid. “We see utilities strug-gling [with] people using lessand less water. So there is thatbalance of needing to increaserates.”
Cities still have to main-tain their water and sewersystems, no matter how oftencustomers use the water, Hy-der said.
The city is facing a capitalimprovement plan that callsfor spending $12 million on its
wastewater treatment plant,$3 million on its water distri-bution system and $2 millionon sewer collection rehabili-tation, Hyder said.
Without the proposed in-creases, the city’s water fundwould run out of money by2017 and the sewer fund by2018, Hyder said.
“So currently, we don’thave a sustainable picture,”Hyder said.
Aldermen recommendedthe rate increase acting as theCommittee of the Whole. TheCity Council will take finalaction.

ByAL [email protected]
ELBURN – Fire trucks be-gan to arrive Monday morningat the Elburn and CountrysideFire Protection District’s newstation on Route 38 in Elburn.
After 14 months of construc-tion and years of planning, thenew station, which sits east ofRoute 47, on the north side ofRoute 38, was bustling withactivity Monday, its first dayof operation. Assistant FireChief Tate Haley has beenoverseeing the project, and heprovided a tour highlightingsome of the features of the newstation.
The station is spacious,much larger than the previousstation at 210 E. North St. inElburn. In several spots, Ha-ley showed off areas that werenot yet designated. He said hewants the station to be pre-pared for growth. The districtcovers areas beyond Elburn,including the Mill Creek sub-division, and Elburn’s pop-ulation is expected to rise asbuilding begins in the Elburnstation area.
“When I come back in 10,15 or 20 years, I want to knowthat the vision I have now willbe fully occupied,” Haley said,adding, “People ask why it isso big. … It is built for the fu-ture.”
Funds for the station hadbeen covered by the depart-ment, and no additional publicfunding was required. Origi-nal cost estimates were be-tween $8 million and $10 mil-lion, and Haley said the stationcame in at close to $10 million.
As Haley spoke, Pam Hall,the station’s administrativeassistant, smiled as she lookedaround the department’s newhome, which is more thantwice as large as the buildingon North Street.
“We had outgrown that
building,” Hall said.Those in the community
will notice emergency vehi-cles going in and out of thelarge building, which is east ofWalgreens. Haley said an openhouse is in the works for Dec.13, so residents will have achance to see the new features.Visitors also will notice moredisplays and areas open forpublic education. Haley saidsuch items previously would
be kept in boxes most of theyear and taken out for specialoccasions, such as the annualChristmas Stroll.
Some features won’t easilyvisible be to the public. For in-stance, instead of the tradition-al fire pole, firefighters can go
directly from the second-floorresidence area to the vehiclearea via a shiny red slide. Theprevious station didn’t havesuch a feature, since it is aone-story station. Haley saidhe asked those at the stationfor a preference and went with
the slide.“Either I created my own
tradition, or I broke tradi-tion,” Haley said with a smile.
The station has three lev-els. On the middle level, whichis the main level, there are of-fices, boardrooms, training ar-eas and a kitchen. In one wing,there is a location for the firemarshal.
Downstairs, there is a fit-ness room, one of the key up-grades. Previously, firefight-ers wanting to use a fitnessroom would use one in a dif-ferent building, one nearbythat once housed ambulances,Haley said.
“Pretty much, it was a glo-rified shed,” Haley said.
The downstairs area alsoincludes an emergency opera-tions center and a large board-room area that also can be usedfor training. In a downstairsarea he said will be a muse-um of sorts, a historic wheelsat among other educationalitems. He said that wheel andanother on display had beenat the old station for years, butsome people never realized it.
Upstairs, there are 15bunks, a large multipurposeroom and a patio. Firefighterscan travel down the slide intothe vehicle area. On the side ofthat area is a training tower,which also can be used to dryhoses. Haley said many areasof training can be implement-ed in that area, including res-cues and the ability to work inconfined spaces.
Haley said it had been achallenge, but he expected allof the equipment to be at thenew station by Monday night.He said it can be difficult for afire department to accomplishtasks related to a move.
“Some businesses can shutdown on Friday … and thenreopen [in a new location] onMonday,” he said. “We can’tshut down.”

Americans are living longer. Home values areup. And for many senior citizens, their homeis their single biggest asset, o!en accountingfor more than 50% of their net worth.With the cost of basic necessities such asfood on the rise, it’s no wonder why moreand more seniors are using HECM reversemortgages to turn their home equity intoextra cash for retirement.However, there are still millions ofhomeowners who could bene"t from thisFHA-insured loan but may simply not beaware of this “retirement secret,” notesFormer U.S. Senator Fred#ompson.“You know, some people have told me thatreverse mortgages sound too good to be true.You get cash out of your home, no monthlypayments, and you still own your home,” saysSenator#ompson.NOMONTHLYMORTGAGEPAYMENTS?* EXTRA CASH?It’s true, no monthly mortgage paymentsare required with a reverse mortgage; thehomeowners only have to pay for maintenance,property taxes, homeowner’s insurance and, ifrequired, theirHOA fees.In fact, reverse mortgages took hold whenpresident Ronald Reagan signed the FHAmortgage bill into law over 25 years ago tohelp senior citizens remain in their homes.
“#ey’re simply an e$ectiveway for folks 62 and olderto get the cash they need toenjoy their retirement,” notes#ompson.
Although today’s HECMreverse mortgages havebeen greatly improved toprovide greater protection
for homeowners, there are still a lot ofmisconceptions. For example, manypeople mistakenly believe the home mustbe paid off in full in order to qualify fora reverse mortgage, which is not the case.One key benefit of a reverse mortgage isthat it automatically pays off your existingmortgage, which frees up cash flow, a hugeblessing for those on a fixed income.Unfortunately, many homeowners whocould bene"t from a reverse mortgage don’teven bother to get more information due to
rumors they’ve heard.#at’s a shame becausereverse mortgages are helping many seniorslive a better life.A recent survey by American AdvisorsGroup (AAG), the nation’s number onereverse mortgage lender, found that 96% oftheir clients were satis"ed with their reversemortgages.If you’re a homeowner age 62 or older, youowe it to yourself to learn more. You may bepleasantly surprised by what you discover.

*If you qualify and your loan is approved, a HECM Reverse Mortgage must pay off your existing mortgage(s). With a HECM Reverse Mortgage, no monthly mortgage payment is required. Borrowers are responsible forpaying property taxes and homeowner’s insurance (which may be substantial). We do not establish an escrow account for disbursements of these payments. Borrowers must also occupy home as primary residence andpay for ongoing maintenance; otherwise the loan becomes due and payable. The loan must be paid off when the last borrower, or eligible non-borrowing surviving spouse, dies, sells the home, permanently moves out,or does not comply with the loan terms. Call 1-800-840-5887 to learn more.A HECM Reverse Mortgage increases the principal mortgage loan amount and decreases home equity (it is a negative amortization loan). American Advisors Group (AAG) works with other lenders and !nancial insti-tutions that offer reverse mortgages. To process your request for a reverse mortgage, AAG may forward your contact information to such lenders for your consideration of reverse mortgage programs that they offer.NMLS# 9392 (www.nmlsconsumeraccess.org).

GENEVA – The numberstuck in Patrick Bily’s mind:75 million.
That’s the number of mealsthe Northern Illinois FoodBank aims to distribute annu-ally by the year 2020.
Food bank personnelshared that goal with morethan 200 volunteers who gath-ered Saturday morning at theorganization’s West Subur-ban Center in Geneva to kickoff the annual holiday mealbox program.
Bily recalled the 75 milliongoal as he prepped cardboardboxes for the assembly line,which would fill the emptyboxes with such ingredientsas stuffing mix, gravy, vege-tables and fruit. That goal –along with the other facts andfigures about hunger sharedduring the orientation – got tohim, he said.
Noting he works for BimboBakeries USA and most of theday’s other volunteers alsorepresented food manufactur-ers, Bily said it is “our respon-sibility to do something about
that.”The boxes assembled Sat-
urday will be paired with afrozen turkey, providing ev-erything needed to make aholiday meal for up to eightpeople.
Donna Lake, the foodbank’s communications di-rector, said the meal boxes notonly help alleviate stress forthose with financial strugglesbut they also give neighborsin need the same opportunityto prepare a holiday meal.
“So many memories aremade around the table,” shesaid.
Music – including JamesBrown’s “I Feel Good” – pro-vided a continuous, upbeatsoundtrack for the volunteersas they packed a seeminglynever-ending stream of boxes.
D r e s s e d a s t h e f o o dbank’s turkey mascot, volun-teer-turned-intern AlejandraRoman, 23, visited each line,pausing for pictures.
“It is fun,” the Aurora resi-dent said. “I really do like it.”
The volunteers, mean-while, worked briskly, almostas if they were in some sortof race. Tiffany Rotondo, who
participated with the Jel SertCompany of West Chicago,said her group wanted to com-plete the most pallets.
“I’m always up for a chal-lenge,” she said.
Ultimately, the food bankplans to distribute about36,000 holiday meal boxes,which will benefit families in13 counties across northernIllinois.
Bily recognized the taskwould take longer than a Sat-urday morning.
But, he said, “We want toput a big dent in it.”
The holiday meal boxprogram is made possiblethrough individual and cor-porate donors. Visit www.SolveHungerToday.org or call630-443-6910 to donate.

Energy innovation andlower utility billsTo the Editor:Illinois is a leader in energy
innovation. For proof, look nofurther than the ambitioussmart campaign launchedrecently to put one millionsmart thermostats in homesacross northern Illinois overthe next five years.A smart thermostat brings
control over home energyliterally into customer hands.With a simple touch, custom-ers can adjust the tempera-ture from the convenienceof a smartphone, tablet orhome computer. That meansfamilies can enjoy heatingand cooling when they needit and eliminate wasted gasand electricity costs whenthey don’t.The devices even “learn”
customer behavior overtime to automatically adjusttemperature settings withouthaving to lift a finger. Savingenergy never has beensimpler.
Northern Illinois residentsare now eligible for up to$120 in utility rebates forecobee3 and Nest LearningThermostats, cutting theprice tag of the thermostatsnearly in half. With therebates, the devices – whichcan cut home heating andcooling costs by up to 20percent – can potentiallypay for themselves withintwo years, and then go on togenerate hundreds of dollarsin savings subsequently.With the goal of reachingone million new households,we now have the potentialto save nearly $120 billion inenergy costs across Illinois.This initiative – a unique
partnership among the utili-
ties, thermostat manufactur-ers and advocacy groups – isthe largest of its kind in thenation, and makes advancedmoney-saving technologyaffordable and accessible toa whole new class of custom-ers. Illinois truly is leadingthe charge toward a smart-er, more energy-efficienttomorrow.For information on the

Like everything connected toChristmas, this year’s “War onChristmas” freakout has arrivedearly. And it has taken the form ofa red Starbucks cup.
Never mind that stores acrossAmerica already are playingChristmas carols.
Forget that Wal-Mart start-ed its holiday layaway plan inAugust, and Target rolled outthe Christmas trees alongsideHalloween decorations in Septem-ber. And let’s pretend that radiostations across the country aren’tgetting angry calls about MariahCarey’s Christmas list hittingthe airwaves the first week ofOctober.
Nope. The Christmas crusad-ers are certain that the War onChristmas is on yet again.
It’s totally obvious becauseStarbucks is serving pumpkinspice lattes and caramel macchia-tos in plain red cups this holidayseason. (Oops. Did I say “holi-day”?)
Starbucks won’t feature treeornaments or snowflakes or rein-deer like it did on its old wintercups. Because those totally saidbirth of Jesus, right?
This year’s design is a simplered ombre that goes from poppyon top to cranberry on the bottom.So without pictures of snowmenor a nutcracker or wreaths, Star-bucks must hate Jesus, and someevangelical Christians joined inan online assault on the coffee go-liath this week. The devout wentwild. One after another, folksdeclared on Facebook and othersocial media that they’ve hadtheir last nonfat vanilla latte.
One pastor urged caffeinatorswho didn’t want to boycott Star-bucks to tell baristas that theirnames are “Merry Christmas”when they order their drinks,forcing them to write it (probably
“Mary Krysmus”) on their cups.And when the caramel macchi-
ato is ready? They HAVE to say“Merry Christmas!” Ha! Doublegotcha. Take that, “Happy Holi-days” subversives across the land.
This? This is what Christmasis all about?
I’m willing to concede thatthere is a war on Christmas. Thereal Christmas.
If Christmas is about honoringthe birth of an impoverished childto a homeless couple who musteventually flee a tyrant to keeptheir baby safe, then, yes, there isa war on Christmas.
If Christmas is about peace,joy, generosity, thankfulness andgoodwill among people, then yes,there is a war on Christmas.
But this Starbucks frenzy is afaux war on a faux Christmas.
In a country where 15 millionchildren sometimes don’t haveenough eat, how could any realChristian conclude that thecolor of coffee cups deserves theiroutrage? Only in honor of the fauxChristmas.
In a nation where 22 percent ofour children live in poverty, whywould any churchgoer care abouta local shopping mall’s decision togo with “glacier” themed decora-tions this winter instead of red/green/Santa/trees? Only in honorof the faux Christmas.
Across the globe, childrenare walking hundreds of milesto escape unspeakable violence,and red cups are supposed tocommand our attention and ad-vocacy? Only in honor of the fauxChristmas.
The trappings of this country’scorporate Christmas are beingshoved down our throats earlierevery year. Faux Christmas creepis real. How about if we declare awar on that Christmas?

Geneva boys basketballcoach Phil Ralston is wellaware of what his program lostto graduation from last year’steam that made a trip to theClass 4A state tournament.
As invaluable as that expe-rience will be to the playersreturning to the Vikings thisyear, Ralston knows it can goone of two ways.
“It’s a double-edged sword,”Ralston said. “I’ve seen teamsthat have had seasons like usand then the next year they fallon their face. But I’ve also seenteams build off those great sea-sons and have ones that manypeople don’t expect them tohave. We’ll see what kind ofteam we are, but our staff hasstressed that we are not thesame team as last year, andthat’s OK.”
A 30-5 season certainly ishard to replicate, but Genevadoes return the likes of centerLoudon Vollbrecht and forwardBennett Fuzak, both of whomplayed key roles last season.
Vollbrecht injured his leftknee at the end of Friday’s Ge-neva football game. Ralstonsaid that Vollbrecht will under-go an MRI as the team awaitsmore information.
Ralston also mentioned thatwith the excitement and buzzaround the basketball programwith its recent success, it hasn’tmade his job any easier asthese first few days of tryoutscome along. But if the summerwas the players’ time, now it’sRalston’s turn to see what he;sgot.
“The summer was theirtime, the players’ time to workon their individual game anddevelop their skills,” Ralstonsaid Monday, the first dayof boys basketball practicethroughout the state. “Now it’sour time as coaches to be con-stantly evaluating to see whatwe’ve got and narrow it down.
“We’ve only got two weekshere (until games begin), and
we’ve got to be ready to go.”North stresses ‘team’ above
all: Most teams, minus the rareones that don’t graduate any se-niors, take the first few weeksto develop chemistry with oneanother before games get intofull gear.
While St. Charles North hada strong season (18-11) to lookback on, they did graduatelynchpins Jake Ludwig andJack Callaghan, both of whomwere Kane County Chronicleall-area first team selections.
But it’s because of such play-ers as Ludwig and Callaghan –along with many former NorthStars – that the boys basketballprogram develops that chemis-try at a rapid level.
“Each team that I’ve had,
they always play the game theright way,” North coach TomPoulin said. “The only thingthat mattered at the end ofgames was the final score. In-dividual stats never mattered.It’s because of seniors in thepast role modeling that mental-ity that allows us as coaches tostress that early in the season.”
Poulin said his main focuswas to take care of the NorthStars’ business above all, be-fore worrying about any oppo-nent, although he did say thefirst few games of the seasonare against tough competition.
He also thinks this team,more so than usual, has thepotential for growth, and he’sexcited to see that when thepostseason looms.
“This is a team that you’regoing to look at come the endof the season and say that theyhave come a very long ways,”Poulin said. “I’m excited forthat and we’ll see, you know.It’s a long season and I like thegroup we’re going to have.”
Batavia football’s successopens doors: There’s no doubtthat if Jim Nazos had his choice,he’d want Canaan Coffey andKamontez Thomas in his start-ing lineup when the Bulldogshost the Batavia Windmill Clas-sic in a couple weeks.
Actually, the Batavia coachis all right if he doesn’t, becausethat would mean those twowould be playing for a footballstate championship in DeKalb.Nazos knows that come the end
of the season, not only will itnot mean much to have missedthose players for a few games,but it also gives several play-ers the opportunities to provesomething to him that theymay not have had with Coffeyand Thomas there.
“The football team is doingsomething special right now,”Nazos said. “They are chasinga life dream of winning a statechampionship. It’s great. It alsogives other guys on this team onopportunity to be seen that theymay not have gotten. We’ll behere when (Coffey and Thomas)get done. In the middle of Janu-ary, you’ll see, they’ll be in fullgear and so will we.”

FOOTBALL NOTEBOOK
Albanese playing well in roleBy CHRIS CASEY
[email protected] KEVIN DRULEY
It’s easy to say Batavia ju-nior tight end Glenn Albanesehas found his niche after athree (and nearly four) touch-down game against Simeon onFriday night.
The 6-foot-5, 220-pound Al-banese caught just three pass-es in the 35-14 win, but all threewent for scores in the Bull-dogs’ victory in a Class 7A sec-ond-round playoff game. Histhree scores gave him seventouchdowns in a season thathas featured mixed roles forAlbanese.
It hasn’t been all smoothsailing for the junior tight endthis year, having some gameswhere he goes without a catchand then others that showglimpses of breakout momentslike Friday night. Nonetheless,Albanese has done whateverhead coach Dennis Piron andoffensive coordinator Sean An-derson have asked of him.
“Some nights we ask him toblock more, helping out withthe run game, while othertimes, he’s involved more inthe passing game,” Piron said.
“Glenn’s adjusted extremelywell and he continues to getbetter with each and everygame. We have a number ofweapons, but when Glenn iscontributing and doing whatwe ask of him, it makes ouroffense that much more dan-gerous.”
One route that appeared tobe open often Friday night wasthe up-the-middle seam fromquarterback Kyle Niemiec toAlbanese, a play that, whenopen, usually contributes tobig nights for the tight end.
“We practice that play alot,” Albanese said. “Com-ing in, our coaches do such agood job of showing us whatthe defenses are going to giveus. So we practice these playsand when we run them in thegames, it’s almost exactly howwe think because of the goodpreparation.”
Albanese could have had afourth score Friday night. Ona 4th-and-goal from the 1-yardline, Niemiec faked a keeper,jumped and lofted a ball to Al-
banese in the back of the endzone. He initially appeared tocome down with the ball, butthe back judge said he did notmaintain possession all theway to the ground.
“I thought I caught it, butthey said I didn’t tuck it away,”Albanese said with a smile. “Iwas pretty excited after I gotthe first one, and when youhave a quarterback as good asKyle Niemiec, it makes my joba whole lot easier.”
Through 11 games, Alba-nese, a Louisville baseballcommit, has 23 receptions for360 yards.
Bowing with grace: Genevaplayers and coaches lingeredon Bradley-Bourbonnais’ fieldfar longer than the victoriousBoilermakers after Friday’s41-22 loss in the second roundof the 7A playoffs.
Although most of the Brad-ley-Bourbonnais contingentretreated to the locker roomafter the postgame handshakeline, the Vikings had no trou-ble speaking well of their op-ponents.
“That was a great team,”Geneva senior runningback Justin Taormina said.“They’re very disciplined. AndI wish them good fortune in the
future.”Bradley-Bourbonnais (8-3)
will host Niles North in thequarterfinals at 5 p.m. Sat-urday. The Boilermakers,7A qualifiers for the fourthstraight season, have wonthe most games since the 1991team went 11-1.
“They were just a verymentally strong football team,and they executed very well,”Taormina said.
Naturally, the Vikings gavethemselves some credit for aseason that ended one victoryshort of the program’s secondstraight quarterfinal appear-ance.
“It’s going to be a long, qui-et car ride,” Taormina said.“Kids are going to be mourn-ing. But, I mean, what do youexpect? We lost a playoff game,and it was our seniors’ lastgame. I wish everybody thebest of luck in the future andgood luck in college.”

17BOYS/GIRLS CROSS COUNTRY STATE MEET
Batavia girls make goals a realityBy CHRIS CASEY
Three weeks before Sat-urday’s IHSA Class 3A statemeet, Batavia girls crosscountry coach Chad Hillmantook out a trophy earned bythe 2008 girls track and fieldteam and set it in front of histeam.
Hillman and his fellowcoaches left the room, givingthe girls a chance to take it allin, and, after very little talkabout it prior, made their goalfor the state meet.
The Bulldogs decided itwas realistic to set a goal tofinish as one of the top threeteams in Class 3A and, on Sat-urday, they made that a real-ity.
Sophomore Emma Ste-phens finished with a per-sonal record of 16:54, whichwas also good enough for 13thplace individually, to leadBatavia at Peoria’s DetweillerPark, giving that 2008 trophysome company.
“I’ve told the girls that suc-cess during the season is onething, but trophy teams take itto a whole different level comeNovember,” Hillman said.“The girls have done such agood job, especially over thelast two weeks and I’m real-ly proud of what they accom-plished.”
Stephens was one of threesophomores, along withDaphne Kolody (17:39) andMarygrace Golden (17:42),that ran with senior DakotaRoman (17:26) as part of Bat-avia’s top four for most of theseason. Stephens knew it wasrealistic to accomplish theBulldogs’ goal.
“Sitting there looking atthat trophy, we had our mindsset on that for us,” Stephenssaid. “That was our main fo-cus and today was such anawesome day for all of us.”
Geneva senior McKenzieAltmayer was the top localindividual finisher, takingseventh overall and running apersonal record, 16:46, in herfinal high school race. The Vi-kings placed ninth as a team.
“It hasn’t really set inyet that this is my last highschool race,” Altmayer said.
“It’s more joy and excitementthat we did so well together.I’m sure there will be tearsat some point, but we’re notthere right now.
“It’s crazy to think abouthow far we’ve come and I’mjust so proud of how we rantoday, We overcame a bunchof injuries and went throughso much to get here. It’s an in-describable feeling right now.
Geneva junior Emma Eh-rhardt finished with the 22ndbest individual time in Class3A with a 17:04.
Audrey Ernst (16:49) andMadison Kaufmann (18:00) ofSt. Charles North competedas individuals. Ernst placedeighth, just behind Altmayer.
Minooka (132) took homethe first place trophy, whileNaperville North edged Bata-via to round out the top threeteam scores.
On the boys side of 3A, St.Charles East took 11th placeoverall, led by personal bestsfrom its top two runners,Mike Gerkin (15:08, 53rd) andMark Sciurba (15:13, 67th).
“I mean, you can’t ask formuch more than what theguys gave us today,” Eastcoach Chris Bosworth said.“Our top two guys run PRs,the whole team gave us ev-erything they had, and wefinished right where I thoughtwe would. I’m extremelyproud of the guys’ effort today
and this whole season.”Marmion took 14th place
in 3A, led by Michael Ron-zone (15:06) and Andrew Bur-roughs (15:19), who took 50thand 74th, respectively.
Sandburg, with a score of79, took the 3A boys crownwith four finishers inside thetop 22.
In the Class 2A race, theKaneland girls team high-lighted local finishers, takinghome 10th place as a team,led by Brianna Bower’s ninthplace individual finish in17:35.
Bower also set a PR in herfinal high school race, know-ing that was her primary fo-cus after making three previ-ous trips to the state meet.
“Today was just a greatday in general,” Bower said.“The weather was perfect, buthonestly, everyone here is sotalented. There’s so many peo-ple and everyone is so excitedto get started. I don’t like tocome in with too many ex-pectations, but just go do mything. The three years priorto this have been learning ex-periences, and I’m really hap-py to finish my last race thisway.”
Fellow senior Noelle Es-pino (18:07) also helped theKnights with her 29th placefinish.
Other top local finishersin the girls 2A race includedRosary senior and Batavia na-tive Madison Ronzone (17:42),who took 11th overall, as wellas Burlington Central’s Me-gan Safranski (17:50), who fin-ished her junior year with a20th place finish.
Yorkville’s girls took homethe team title with four finish-ers inside the top 12.
For the Kaneland boys intheir 2A race, the team re-sult may not have been whatthe Knights hoped, but coachChad Clarey knew it was notbecause of a lack of effort.
Kaneland had six runnersset a PR, including sopho-more Matt Richtman, whose15:04 clocking, good for 18thplace, set a school record. Se-nior Austin Kintz ended hisKaneland career with a 15:46to help the Knights finish 17thout of 25 competing teams.

ST. FRANCIS GIRLS VOLLEYBALL
Spartans fight back,are headed to state
BOLINGBROOK – In therare case where two defendingstate champion girls volleyballteams meet with a trip to stateon the line, it would only be fairfor the match to be a thrillerand ultimately decided by a tee-ter-tottering final set that deliv-ered a plethora of excitement.
So, that’s precisely whatoccurred with St. Francisand Benet in front of a stand-ing-room only crowd Satur-day afternoon in the Class 4ABolingbrook Supersectional.
In a third set that featured11 ties, including the final oneat 20 apiece, the Spartans fi-nally pulled away behind Mol-ly Haggerty’s effort, winning,25-22, to advance to next week-end’s state tournament.
The Redwings took theopening set, 25-21, before St.Francis won the second one,also by a 25-22 score.
It was the first time theSpartans had lost the openingset and come back to win sincethey did it against MotherMcAuley in September.
“Everybody got their mon-ey’s worth tonight, and it wasa fabulous crowd,” Spartanscoach Peg Kopec said. “We’revery blessed to have the talentand heart that this team pos-sesses. I couldn’t be happier forthem.”
St. Francis (37-3) didn’t ap-pear like it was heading to Illi-nois State’s Redbird Arena, thesite of the state tournament,anytime soon in the early go-ing, falling behind 16-7 in thefirst set.
“You could tell that Benet isa very well-coached team anddidn’t come out scared at all,”Haggerty said. “They came outaggressive, serving hard andhitting hard. They just playedreally well in the first set andwe couldn’t adjust to them.”
But, the Spartans did adjust.What many probably over-looked was that the Spartansoutscored the Redwings, 14-9,the remainder of the first set,and that seemed to spark them.
“Benet hits really hard, sowe made sure to make sureour hands were really stiff,” St.
Francis junior Kamryn Malloysaid. “Anything flimsy wouldjust go right off, so we adjustedthere. We also started focusingmore on our passing before ourhitting.”
Tied at 21 in the secondset, the Spartans received twokills from Malloy (12 kills, 10digs, nine service points), an-other from Haggerty (22 kills,12 digs), and then pounced onan error by the Redwings thatgave them the winning point.
“We kept our composureeven though we lost the firstset,” Haggerty said. “We foughtback the whole game, stayedtogether as a team and itshowed.”
Benet (37-3) never allowedSt. Francis to lead by twopoints in the final set until anace by Malloy and a kill fromHaggerty gave the Spartans a22-20 advantage.
The Redwings pulled towithin 23-22, but another killfrom Haggerty, followed by aBenet error, ensured that theSpartans were destined forNormal. They will face Cary-Grove in a semifinal at 8:30p.m. Friday.
Although the Spartans havewon three consecutive 3A statetitles, this is their first seasonas a 4A program. They’ll beaiming for the program’s 12thstate title.
“I think a match like thatbefore state helps us prepareourselves for an even biggermatch,” Haggerty said. “Obvi-ously, Benet is a great team andhelped us for the long run.”
Daniele Messa had 30 as-sists and nine digs while Bec-ca Fernandez chipped in withnine digs.
“We kept our composureeven though we lost thefirst set. We fought backthe whole game, stayedtogether as a team and it
showed.”Molly HaggertySt. Francis volleyball

CLASS 6A FOOTBALL, ROUND 2: MONTINI 42, KANELAND
Kaneland football can’t overcome slow startBy JESSE SEVERSON
LOMBARD – For the thirdtime in six seasons, the Kane-land football team’s seasonended at the hands of Montini.
The Broncos, the top seedin Class 6A, jumped on theNo. 8 Knights early, building afive-touchdown lead less than30 seconds into the secondquarter of a 42-7 win in thesecond round of the 6A play-offs Saturday afternoon.
“That’s not the way wewanted to start the game, butthey have a tremendous foot-ball team; everybody knowsthat,” Kaneland coach TomFedderly said. “All the creditgoes to them. They beat us inall phases of the game today.”
In the 2010 and 2011 Class5A semifinals, the Bron-cos, who were the underdogagainst the No. 1 Knights eachtime, knocked out Kanelandbefore going on to win thestate championship.
As the No. 6 seed in bothseasons, the Broncos won, 27-14, in 2010 and, 35-31, in 2011.
The Broncos (11-0) ad-vanced to face No. 5 DeKalb inthe 6A quarterfinals.
“That’ll be fun, that’ll bea challenge,” Montini coachChris Andriano said ofDeKalb, which he said he sawon film while preparing forKaneland. “We got to go overthere – go on the road. There’salways a few things you needto work on when you go on theroad.”
Kaneland senior quarter-back Jake Marczuk finishedwith a game-high 103 rushingyards on 14 carries and had agame-long 48-yard touchdownearly in the third quarter. Hewent 6 for 13 passing for 32yards, with no touchdownsand two interceptions – bothin the first quarter.
Montini’s high-powered of-fense, which has now scoredat least 35 points in eightgames this season, was ledby senior quarterback JustinBlake (10 for 13 passing, 78yards, two TDs and nine car-ries for 84 rushing yards anda touchdown) and junior run-ning back Prince Walker (11carries for 98 yards and twotouchdowns).
On Saturday, the power-
house Broncos had the gameunder control before the firstquarter was over, dominatingfield position in the openinghalf.
All five of Kaneland’s firstquarter possessions beganon the 20-yard line via touch-back, with Montini kicker Mi-chael Cooney having the windat his back. Meanwhile, Mon-tini had three possessionsbegin inside the Kaneland 33– thanks to two interceptionsand a 4-yard Kaneland punt.
“We knew coming in thatthey were a powerful team,”Marczuk said. “It was a badway to start off and I thinkthat led the rest of the wayfor us, but hats off to Montini.They’re a good football teamand they’re going to go reallyfar in the playoffs.”
The Knights (7-4) had atough time getting anythinggoing on offense against atough Broncos defense in thefirst half. They finished with32 yards of offense (24 pass-ing, eight rushing) in the firsthalf with the Montini starters
in – 18 of which came on theKnights’ opening drive of thegame.
“They had a nice drive tostart the game and we endedup holding them,” Andrianosaid. “But then we adjustedand settled into their offenseand our defense took over.Then it was lights out and wegot the field position the restof the quarter.”
The Knights (7-4) advancedto the second round after adramatic 33-31 victory againstBelvidere North in MaplePark after Drew Franklinmade the game-winning fieldgoal with 1:01 remaining. Itwas the first 6A playoff victo-ry in school history.
“I’m really proud with howwe finished the end of theseason,” Fedderly said. “Weturned things around. Wewere 3-3 and won four straightgames and are the first teamto win a 6A playoff game, sothey have a lot to be proud of.”

Use your collections to celebrateholidays like Veterans Day. Nov. 11,1919, was the day chosen to com-memorate the Armistice, the agree-ment signed the year before thatended World War I. The celebration,named Armistice Day, featured pa-rades, meetings, a moment of silence,prayers and events that encouragedgood will. It also included displays ofthe flag on all government buildings,schools, churches and other suitableplaces. The holiday was changed in1954 to honor veterans of all wars andthe name became “Veterans Day.” In1968 a bill was passed, proclaimingthat all national holidays will be cel-ebrated on a Monday to make longholiday weekends. The public com-plained, and in 1978 Veterans Daywas returned to the original Nov. 11date. Collectors like to own and willpay extra for vintage pieces that pic-ture the flag, Uncle Sam, Lady Libertyor any other patriotic symbols. Duringpast decades, advertisers could altera flag with a product name, claim anendorsement from the president, oruse the symbols in ways that noware not considered politically correct.Union Leader Tobacco pictured UncleSam with stars and stripes in adsand on packages in the early 1900s.By 1920, they redesigned the pack-age and replaced Uncle Sam with aneagle, probably because Uncle Samhad become old-fashioned. This is aclue to the age and value of the UnionLeader tins, packages and signs col-lected today. On Nov. 11, display
some vintage collectibles that praiseveterans, especially those that showthe flag or Uncle Sam. It is a day ofremembrance, and objects from thepast help us understand what we cel-ebrate.
***Q: During World War II, my fa-
ther was in the U.S. Navy and wasstationed in Washington, D.C., inthe photo lab under the direction ofEdward Steichen. I have about 200black-and-white photos depicting thewar that were taken by Steichen andmany of his handpicked photogra-phers. I also have a letter addressedto my father thanking him for hisservice and signed by Steichen. Ihave the photos in archival pagesand moisture-proof albums. Is thereanything else I should be doing topreserve them? Is there any value tothem?
A: Edward Jean Steichen (1879-1973) was known for his portrait andfashion photos. He helped developaerial photography during World WarI and served as Director of the NavalAviation Photographic Unit duringWorld War II. His photos sell for highprices at auctions. Using archival pag-es and albums to store your photoshelps preserve them. Make sure the
albums don’t contain PVC (polyvinylchloride), which can damage photos.Don’t store them in an attic, base-ment, or anywhere they’ll be exposedto high temperatures or high humid-ity. The highest price realized for aphotograph by Edward Steichen was$2,928,000 for a landscape in 2006.

Dr. Wallace: My younger sis-ter (12) and I (17) live with ourmom, who is a single mother.We love her very, very much.Every quality of hers is good,except for one. It’s the bad onethat concerns me. My parentswere divorced a year ago andthe day our father moved outof the house, mom startedsmoking. Someone at heroffice told her that smokingwould relieve the tensions shewas suffering.
At first, mom was goingoutside to smoke. But once theweather started to get coolershe started lighting up in thehouse.
Now our house smellslike a chimney. Even whenshe went outside to smoke,I encouraged her not to getaddicted to cigarettes becauseI know that use of tobaccoproducts can cause serioushealth problems – even death.She refused to quit and saidshe needed the tobacco boostto keep her going.
But, now that she is fillingour house with tobacco smokemost of the time, I’m afraidmy little sister and I are goingto get sick breathing thesmoke. Since she probablywon’t quit smoking, will youplease inform her she could becausing health problems for
her children? Thanks. –Adel-la, San Antonio, Texas
Adella: Your daughter isvery concerned your ciga-rette habit could cause youserious health problemsand that secondhand smokealso is causing concerns forthe health of your children.There is no question thatsecondhand smoke irritatesthe eyes and noses of sensi-tive nonsmokers, but now theevidence is mounting that itis much more serious than werealized.
Secondhand smoke alsocauses significant damageto the lungs of nonsmokers,scarring the small airways inthe lungs. This reduces lungcapacity, making it neces-sary to put more effort intobreathing. Reduced lung ca-pacity often is a forerunner ofemphysema and other seriousdisorders. The latest studiesshow that nonsmoking familymembers of smokers have anincreased risk of lung cancer.
A large case-control studyby the American Cancer So-ciety found that women with
husbands who smoked a packor more a day at home haddouble the risk of lung cancer,compared with women mar-ried to nonsmokers.
There’s the evidence. Sec-ondhand smoke is a serioushealth risk. Now it’s up toyou to protect yourself andyour children. Do your verybest to give up your cigarettehabit. It’s important that youand your children remain ashealthy as possible. If it’s go-ing to take a little extra timebefore you are tobacco-free,please eliminate smokinginside your home until then.Your children are dependingon you, because they need youand love you very much.
Dr. Wallace: What’s the mostsensible way to lose my extrapounds and to keep themfrom returning? Keep youranswer as short, but accurate,as possible. I don’t need tospend a lot of time readingsomething that should take 15seconds.– Nameless, Middle-bury, Indiana
Nameless: Being active andeating smart are the best waysto lose weight and keep it off.(Should be read and compre-hended in ten seconds or less.)

Dear Dr. K: People havebeen talking about stemcells as a revolutionarytechnique for a longtime.
Has anything come ofit? And why has it beenso controversial?
Dear Reader: You’reright; people have beenexcited about stem cellsfor nearly 25 years. Yetprogress was quite slow,and some people hadmajor ethical concerns.But in the past eightyears, progress has ac-celerated and the ethicalissues largely have beencircumvented.
Theoretically, stemcells could be used to re-place cells that are killedby disease – heart cellskilled in a heart attackor brain cells killed byAlzheimer’s disease. Butto explain the excitingpotential of stem cells, Ifirst need to define someterms and concepts.
Each human being ismade of trillions of cells.They are grouped togeth-er into organs, such asthe eye and the stomach.Each organ containstypes of specialized cells,and each type looks andacts differently.
Each of these verydifferent cells came fromjust one original cell: thefertilized egg. The egg di-vides and keeps dividinguntil one cell has becometrillions.
Inside every humancell are a little over20,000 genes – the same20,000-plus genes. Thegenes inside a light-sens-ing cell in the eye are thesame as the genes in anacid-making cell in thestomach. So if both cellshave the same genes,why are these two differ-ent types of specializedcells so different fromeach other?
What defines aspecialized cell is whatgenes inside the cell areturned on. The eye celland the stomach cellhave different genesturned on.
OK, back to the fertil-ized egg: About five days
after the egg is fertilized,it has divided into sev-eral hundred cells. Someof these cells are calledembryonic stem cells.They have the ability toturn into any type of spe-cialized cell in the body.Indeed, they promptlybegin to do that, and theembryo starts to formorgans.
With a few exceptions,once a cell has becomespecialized, it will staythat way until it dies.
For decades webelieved an embryonicstem cell could turn intoa specialized cell, but notvice versa.
For example, supposeyou needed new heartcells because of a heartattack. Until 2007, therewere two problems withusing embryonic stemcells to do this. First, theembryonic stem cellswould come from the em-bryo of another humanbeing.
Your immune systemmight well recognizethose cells as foreignand attack them. Second,many of those embryoswould have come frominduced abortions, rais-ing ethical questions.
If only you could useyour own embryonicstem cells, that wouldsolve both problems.But of course your ownembryonic stem cells ex-isted only briefly, a longtime ago, and you can’tturn back the clock.
Then, in 2007, aresearch breakthroughchanged everything. Thebreakthrough basicallyshowed that you can turnback the clock. Keep acopy of today’s column,and tune in tomorrow tosee how.
Write to Dr. Komaroffat www.askdoctork.comor write: Ask Doctor K,10 Shattuck St., SecondFloor, Boston, MA 02115.

CROSSWORD SUDOKU BRIDGE by Phillip Alder
CELEBRITY CIPHER
Liana Liberato, a television and filmactress, said, “I started theater when Iwas three, and I started doing profes-sional acting when I was nine.”
Today’s deal revolved around thenumbers three and nine. South was inthree-no-trump. Can you see the threeways he could have collected ninetricks? West started with three roundsof hearts, and East discarded a spadeand a diamond.
Note South’s initial takeout double.In the balancing position, a one-no-trump overcall is weak, not strong.Then, when North had sufficient toadvance with two spades over twohearts, South had an easy jump tothree no-trump.
South had six top tricks: two heartsand four diamonds. He had potentialwinners in both black suits, but West,who was marked with the missingaces, was threatening to establish andrun his hearts. Declarer had to make ittoo expensive for West to take trickswith those aces.
At trick four, South led his lowspade. If West had jumped in with hisace, declarer would have claimed hiscontract with three spades, two heartsand four diamonds. So West playedlow.
Now South repeated the formula.He won with dummy’s spade jack,played a diamond to his hand and leda low club.
If West had taken that trick, declar-er would have had nine tricks via onespade, two hearts, four diamonds andtwo clubs.
But when West ducked again,South won with dummy’s queen andled a spade to his queen to get homewith two spades, two hearts, fourdiamonds and one club.
Do you win ninethis way or that?

Dear Abby: A year ago,I ended a turbulent five-year relationship with myboyfriend, “Alex,” thatresulted in a special-needschild. Alex is not living inreality when it comes toour daughter’s disabilities,and his family is not pres-ent in her life.
Our daughter,“Meghan,” spent months inthe hospital before she washealthy enough to comehome, and Alex’s familyvisited only a few times.
I have tried to resolvethe issues with Alex’sfamily so our daughter canhave a relationship withthem, but it is still one-sid-ed.
Meghan’s paternal fam-ily will send a present forher birthday or Christmas,but they spend no timewith her.
They have other grand-children in other stateswhom his mother driveshours to see, but she won’tdrive five minutes to seemy daughter.
I’d like to start rejectingthe gifts they send Meghanwith a note explainingwhy. I find it disturbingthat they’ll spend mon-ey on my child, but areunwilling to spend timewith her. I feel the giftsare a payoff. I don’t wantMeghan to feel like the oddman out when she’s oldenough to realize how sheis treated compared to theother grandchildren. Abby,what are your thoughts? –End Of My Rope
Dear End Of My Rope: Ihate to see you sever youralready tenuous ties withMeghan’s paternal family.
Their behavior towardher may have somethingto do with the fact thatshe has disabilities, orthe “turbulence” of yourfive-year relationship withtheir son.
If they would consentto it, I would recommend
family counseling for allof you. However, if theywon’t, and because you feelthat their lack of involve-ment in Meghan’s life even-tually will become hurtfulto her, you are within yourrights to reject their giftsand find more supportfor her within your ownfamily.
Dear Abby: My son tellsme no one wants to hangout with him at the smallcommunity college heattends.
He is a handsome,loving, polite young manwho earned the citizenshipaward three years in a rowin elementary school. Hissister and I were discuss-ing that maybe he is beingtoo polite and it could turnpeople off. No one likes the“nice guy.” Do you haveany advice I can give him?– Raised A Good Boy
Dear Raised A Good Boy: Idisagree with your state-ment that no one likes anice guy. Nice people likenice people. From this dis-tance, I am unable to guesswhat your son’s problemmight be.
However, it is tellingthat you are seeking adviceabout his social problems,not him.
The best advice youcould convey to your sonwould be to talk about thiswith a counselor at school.Together, they may be ableto figure out why he hastrouble fitting in. You alsoshould encourage him toget involved in activities,which should widen hiscircle of acquaintances.
