Oakton-based comedy group to perform free show in Niles By Chris Zois | For The Bugle t takes talent and determination to perfect a comedy routine, and those who do have to love the ‘bit.’ OMG Improv, a comedy group based out of Oakton Community College, performs high-energy improv shows that thrive on audience participation. On Saturday, the group will showcase its talents during a free performance at the Niles Public Library, 6960 W. Oakton St. David Nadolski, who created the group, said audience participation is important to a successful improv show. That means readers who are planning on attending Saturday’s performance should be prepared to share some ideas of what they’d like to see. The group started about four years ago and is mixture of Oakton students, area residents and one professor. In that time, OMG Improv has performed at variety of popular comedy venues throughout the Chicago area, including Second City, ComedySportz Chicago, Laugh Out Loud Theater in Schaumburg, and the Gorilla Tango Theatre in Skokie. Nadolski said a lot of comedians perform for a while in the city but eventually get jobs and move to the suburbs. “We are working hard to capture all of that talent, so we can be a powerhouse in the northwest suburbs and even in the Chicago comedy improvisational scene,” Nadolski said. Ken Lubinski, who joined OMG in September, said he originally set out to be a comedy writer but now enjoys being in on the act. After immersing himself in the writing program at Chicago’s Second City, Lubinski got a taste of the performance aspect and has loved it ever since. As for Saturday’s show, Lubinski said it will consist of several short form games, where an audience member throws out a suggestion and the performance is made up on the spot.

Nothing says summer like classic cars and live music. The Park Ridge Chamber of Commerce on Wednesday announced the schedule for the 2015 Cruisin’ Park Ridge car shows. The free monthly shows will take place June 5, July 17, Aug. 7 and Sept. 9 in the Park Ridge Public Library parking lot on Prospect and Summit avenues. Summit Avenue will be closed during the Friday evening shows, which run from 6 to 9 p.m. Marko Ratic of North Shore Motor Works and director on chamber board is in charge of planning the car shows. He said the shows, now entering their fifth year, have become a community
favorite. “Park Ridge has always been a home to many car enthusiasts, and it’s a great area to have these events,” Ratic said. “The Cruisn’ Park Ridge Car Shows are a guaranteed good time.” In addition to classic cars, each show will feature live music, a children’s car bounce house, refreshing special cold teas from TeaLula, libations and margaritas from WineStyles and Rita’s on the Run, hot food from Smilin’ Dawgs, and martial arts demonstrations from MBD Martial Arts. “The support that we get from the community, library, local businesses and sponsors has been amazing,” Ratic said.

District 64 names new principal of Jefferson School Current principal Leslye Lapping will retire June 30 By bugle staff nweditor@buglenewspapers.com @NilesILNews
An administrator from Hinsdale School District 181 will replace Leslye Lapping as the next principal of Jefferson School. The Park Ridge-Niles School District 64 Board of Education on Monday confirmed the appointment of Lisa Halverson as principal of Jefferson, effective July 1. Lapping will retire June 30, according to the district. While at District 181, Halverson served four years as pupil service administrator and also directed its early childhood program. She also served for seven years in Skokie School District 69 as principal of an early childhood grades preK-2 school and as a principal for four years at a K-8
school in Lindop School District 92 in Broadview. “Ms. Halverson impressed us immediately by her collaborative leadership style and clear, childcentered focus, which we believe is critical in working with our youngest students, particularly those with special needs, and the highly specialized staff members who teach them,” Superintendent Laurie Heinz said in a press release. Jefferson is District 64’s early childhood center and features several blended classrooms where students with special needs and community students attend preschool together. The center houses a paid, extended day kindergarten program as well. “Her experience in transitioning students successfully from early child interventions to school-based services, her past success in creating meaningful report cards for parents that span a twoyear development continuum, and her expertise in curriculum

Lempke officially named next library director Board finalized decision at its May 20 meeting By jonathan samples managing editor
nweditor@buglenewspapers.com @NilesILNews
The Niles Public Library’s Susan Lempke can remove the word “interim” from her current title. The library’s board of trustees last week appointed Lempke to the vacant library director position, which she has held since the retirement of Linda Weiss last year. As director, Lempke will receive an annual salary of $122,000, according to the library. “She is dedicated to the library, and we are confident that she will lead the Niles Public Library District to the next level of success,” Board President Linda Ryan said at the
board’s May 20 meeting. Ryan also thanked the firm Coleman Lew & Associates, which the library retained to assist in the director search. Lempke has more than 30 years of public library experience. She joined the Niles Public Library almost 20 years ago as a parttime staff member, according to Sasha Vasilic, public relations and marketing supervisor for the library. Lempke holds a Master of Library and Information Science degree from Indiana University, as well as a
bachelor’s degree in journalism. “I’m delighted to be appointed library director by the board of trustees,” said Lempke, who also noted the timing of the board’s decision. “We have exciting things coming up, like kicking off another season of summer reading next month and our fall grand opening of new science and technology spaces.” Lempke added that she is excited to begin working with the community and board of trustees on the library’s next strategic plan. “Libraries are changing fast, and we have to keep talking with our district members to be sure we are meeting their needs and surpassing their expectations,” she said. The library also swore in its three recently elected board members during the meeting. New members Patti Rozanski and Tim Spadoni, as well as Ryan, will serve six-year terms on the board.
Niles Township lends hand to monarch butterflies As part of their spring and summer migration, monarch butterflies make the long journey from Mexico to Canada each year. Niles Township is assisting those monarchs that pass through Illinois by providing a food source for the butterflies during the long trek. Susan Cooney, past president of the Garden Clubs of Illinois, recently visited the Niles Township office to plant milkweed seeds, a long-lasting perennial that is essential to the monarch’s migration. The Township Officials
of Cook County and Garden Clubs of Illinois arranged the joint venture to distribute and plant the seeds. “Milkweed is the only plant that monarchs will lay their eggs on,” said Marilyn Glazer, supervisor of Niles Township. “Each of us can make a difference toward helping save the these butterflies one plant at a time.” The township said individuals interested in obtaining a packet of milkweed seeds for their garden can pick one up at its office, 5255 Main St., Des Plaines.

medicines work miracles. Of course, some have, but others have not. Yet it has become ingrained in the American psyche that patients are entitled to these medicines no matter the cost. Perhaps that’s why we tolerate those intrusive drug company commercials By Trudy Lieberman that bombard us at the dinner table Rural Health News Service with cures for toenail fungus. But those ads work. They motivate consumers to ask about the drugs being There’s no getting around hyped. Most of the time the docs it.

The latest C drugs like Sovaldi with its evidence just came from $84,000 annual price tag, and Express Scripts, the pharmacy compounded medications, which benefit manager, which acts use ingredients mixed together as a middleman between in the exact strength and dosage drug makers and employers.

By any measure these are huge pharmacies use for ointments, creams, increases that don’t signal much hope and powders shifting some of the cost to that the U.S. can bring down its medical patients. Not long ago I talked to Peter Bach, spending, which is now over 17 percent of the country’s national income. Express a physician and epidemiologist at Scripts was frank about the long-term Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center impact on employers and others who in New York City, about the high cost of actually pay most of those bills. It’s an drugs. He echoed the Express Scripts findings. Bach told me makers of cancer “unsustainable $52 billion a year.” Who are the patients with these drugs can pretty much do what they stratospheric drug expenses? Nearly want in setting prices.

After all, we’ve been conditioned which are usually determined through for decades now to believe that modern government and drug company
negotiations. Either way, he says, it’s better than we have now. What about the claim that the high cost of developing these drugs justifies their high price tags? In mid-May a study published in the New England Journal of Medicine found the highly profitable drug and biotech industries “actually spend only a small fraction of their revenues on truly innovative research.” The study noted that large drug companies did not develop some of the most important recent new drugs but acquired them by purchasing the biotech companies that did. In its first year of sales, Gilead, the company selling Sovaldi, totally recouped the $11 billion it paid for the rights to market the drug. The public is becoming more skeptical and starting to question both prices and drug company marketing practices. “A year ago there was little discussion,” says John Rother, who heads a group called the National Coalition on Health Care. “Today that is 100 percent reversed,” and the group’s Campaign for Sustainable Rx Pricing may be catching on. “But I think we’re still a long way from agreement about what to do,” he said. Increasingly all consumers will bear the costs of high-priced medicines through higher deductibles and more cost-sharing. Sovaldi and similar drugs added $4.5 billion to Medicare spending last year, more than 15 times what Medicare paid for older hepatitis C drugs the year before. Only as Medicare beneficiaries and everyone else with prescription drug coverage feels the pinch, will there be any serious chance that people’s voices will be loud enough to effect any changes. That will happen, as Express Scripts pointed out, when the prices become unsustainable.
We’d like to hear about your experiences with paying for medications. Write to Trudy at trudy.lieberman@gmail.com.
letter to the editor
Height of Hypocrisy As a kind of consolation prize, Mayor Di Maria and Action Party President Bill Grier awarded plaques for service recognition to Shel Marcus and Maria Toth. One has to wonder why Di Maria and Grier pushed Marcus and Toth off their Action Party slate after praising their contributions and opening avenues for future consultations. These two experienced trustees were replaced by inexperienced substitutes, probably because they would be more cooperative in supporting future policies of the mayor. These new trustees hand
picked by Di Maria and Bill Grier now owe their loyalties to them. The remainder of the trustees are also in the same political party as the mayor, so they now have absolute control of village politics. With all the praise and commendations the mayor had for Marcus and Toth, one has to question why he got rid of them. This would not be so bad except for the lack of good management of the village, since the mayor took office. The Prairie View Tiff remains dormant. Our bond ratings have gone down. No viable businesses are coming in to fill the many empty lots scattered around the
village. Money is being uselessly thrown at consultants to do the jobs that our salaried officials should be doing. With the passing of reporter Nick Katz, the newspapers no longer cover Morton Grove meetings on a regular basis. With Di Maria controlling the official village mailings, we can only expect a sanitized version of what is really going on. With the current makeup of the village board, we can expect little discussion on upcoming legislation. We really need a more diversified makeup of village officials. Sherwin Dubren Morton Grove Resident

Back in track After a year off, Maine East junior wins sectional title in 800
By mike sandrolini sports reporter
mike@nilesbugle.com @Voyager_Sport
Maine East’s Torrain Haughton, a junior middle distance runner competing in only his second year of organized track, turned in the most noteworthy individual performance among local competitors at last Thursday’s Loyola Class 3A boys sectional. Haughton overtook opponents from Deerfield and Evanston during the final turn of the 800-meter race and won the sectional crown in 1:55.38. Team-wise, Maine South recorded 50 points for a fifth-place finish among 16 clubs as the Hawks will be sending individuals to Charleston in five events. The Demons were eighth (27 points) and Niles West ninth (26.333). Evanston ran away with the team sectional title, easily outdistancing runner-up Hersey, 118 to 67.
MAINE EAST Haughton came to the United States from Jamaica just three years ago, and was involved in the Maine East track and field program as a freshman. However, he didn’t participate in track at all his sophomore year, opting instead to join the gymnastics team. Prior to the start of track season this year, however, Maine East coaches talked to Haughton and persuaded him to give track another try. “They told me you should come
out for track,” he said. “ ‘If you do track you’ll go to state. You’re very good. ’ ” Needless to say, his coaches were right. In addition to winning the sectional race, Haughton owns one of the four fastest 800 times in the state this season. “Torrain is a special runner without question,” said Maine East coach Scott Schultes. “(With) his type of talent, very few coaches are lucky to have a kid like him on the team. He’s very talented and he’s very inexperienced. “He made three pretty bit mistakes in his race and yet he still ran a fast time and won it. If he can avoid making those mistakes and learn from them, I think he can do some good things down there (at state).” The Demons also will be represented at state by senior Nick Pavlovic, who threw 51 feet, 8 inches in the shot put to take the sectional title. The third time at sectional was indeed a proverbial charm for the senior. “I can’t believe it,” he said. “It’s nostalgic right now. It’s bringing me back to years past when I was so close and I didn’t get it. Now that I’ve got it, it feels great.” Pavlovic and Haughton’s performances lifted the Demons to one of their best sectional outings in quite a while. “By far this year has been an exciting year to coach because we’ve had a lot of talent that I knew

Hawks, Wolves play for regional titles By mike sandrolini sports reporter
mike@buglenewspapers.com @Voyager_Sport
If every playoff game for the Maine South girls soccer team was a blowout like the Hawks’ 7-0 blanking of 12th-seeded Lincoln Park in the opening game of its own Class 3A regional early last week, life in the postseason would certainly be less stressful. Junior forward Claudia Wine scored twice for the Hawks, while senior forward and leading goalscorer Gabby Pinto, sophomore midfielder Sara Ignoffo, senior mid Bridget Whitney and freshmen
Angelina Moore (forward) and Aly Kilburg (midfielder) had one goal apiece. But as coach J.J. Crawford and the fifth-seeded Hawks (15-5-3) approached last Friday’s regional title game versus No. 4-seed Lane Tech, they know, of course, that if they advance into sectional play, and keep on advancing, the games will undoubtedly get progressively tougher. A victory over Lane Tech not only would give the Hawks their first regionaltitlesince2013—theirstring of 12 straight regional crowns was

MAINE SOUTH No Hawk won an individual event last Thursday, but Maine South
Notre Dame played three games in three days early last week, winning one of the three matchups. Matt Segovia pounded a home run and had two RBI in the Dons’5-2 triumph over St. Viator on May 18. Ranko Stevanovic also drove in two runs, while Sam Ferri and Kevin Johnson each doubled.
Tim Simon’s double was one of only three hits the Dons (22-12) mustered in a 10-0 loss to Loyola May 19. The Dons faced St. Viator for the second time in three days on May 20, losing 3-2. Sam Ferri had two hits in three at-bats, Segovia tripled and Mat Krogstad doubled. Niles West was upended by Waukegan, 4-3, on May 18. Chris Tountas went 3-for-3, including a double, for the Wolves, and Blake Kons pitched all seven innings
despite taking the loss. Maine East dropped a pair of games to inter-district rival Maine West last week, losing 10-5 on May 18 and 8-1 on May 20. Jose Trujillo was 3-for-4 with a double, Danish Mohiuddiin and Lukas Parker each doubled and Dylan Kuffell had two RBI in the 10-5 loss. Parker and Jusuf Zvizdic hit doubles in the May 20 game. Maine South needed only five innings to defeat Glenbrook South, 10-0, as Hank Schau surrendered
collected second-place finishes from Alex Jasper in the long jump (21 feet even), Matt Dilfer in the pole vault (13-3) and Kevin Jarvis in the shot (51-4). Distance runners Reece Jordan and Henry Mierzwa also clocked in with respective times in the 3,200 and 1,600 that were under the qualifying standard, thus earning an opportunity to compete at state. “I thought we could battle for
second (as a team), but I’m pleased to be in that top five,” said Maine South coach Scott Sutschek. “We were second in the (CSL South) conference meet last week so I’m pleased with the way the season’s wrapped up.” Sutschek was hoping Jasper also could make it downstate in the pole vault, but the jack-of-all-trades senior—who runs the anchor leg for the Hawks’ 4x100 and 4x200-meter
relay squads, as well—finished in a six-way tie for third at 12-9. The state qualifying height is 13-9. Dilfer grabbed the final automatic qualifying spot with his vault. “He’s been a good athlete for us for three years and we were actually disappointed for him in the (pole) vault today,” Sutschek said. “He runs good solid legs on both our sprint teams and obviously we’re going to miss him. He’s been all over the

Probably Twitter. what do you like to do on twitter? I like to look up things that interest me, follow a couple of favorite players. Definitely Stephen curry and Derrick Rose.

Stephen Curry; he’s more active than Derrick Rose is. he talks about his faith and what he’s doing in the community. how many twitter followers do you have?

snapped in the 2014 championship game by St. Ignatius—but put them into this week’s Evanston sectional against the winner of the Niles West regional. That game was played Tuesday. Heading into the regional title matchup, Crawford was hoping last year would repeat itself in this sense: the Hawks were the No. 4 seed last season, and were defeated by the No. 5 seed. This time around, Maine South is the No. 5 seed, seeking to knock off the No. 4 seed. “I like this team,” Crawford said. We’re playing well as a team; there’s no real superstar per se, just a bunch of girls working hard and supporting each other. “We’re going to have to outwork teams, we’re going to have to win every 50-50 ball and we’re going to have to be organized and opportunistic. We’re going to have to score on some dead balls, and be willing throw our body into the box and get a foot, a shin whatever it may be on something.” The Hawks turned their season around after losing four straight during a week-long stretch from April 16-23. During that skid, the scored just one goal and were shut out three straight times. After that, they went on a ninegame unbeaten streak during which they averaged three goals

per game. Crawford would gladly take three goals per game in the playoffs. “Yes, I would think that would be pretty good,” he said. Maine South has been its usual dominant self defensively this season. The victory over Lincoln Park was the Hawks’ sixth shutout in its last seven games. Senior goalkeeper Claire Vinopal and junior Erin Henley have done their part to keep foes off the scoreboard, while Maine South’s backline remains stingy. “I think we’re doing really well even with the underclassmen (in the lineup),” said junior defender Taylor Barzowski. “I think we communicate well and we play well with each other and that really helps by communicating on and off the field. We have good chemistry together and it really shows.” Senior mid Jackie Viola said getting back to basics after experiencing their four game goalscoring drought in April is the core reason why the Hawks have seen more balls reach the back of the net. “I think we realized that we were in a slump and that we wanted to get out of it,” she said. “So we all dedicated a little more time to practice. We were working hard in practice and doing more shooting drills and stuff like that. We lost
touch with those (basics) in the middle of the season.” Although scoring three goals per postseason contest would be the ideal scenario, Crawford was confident prior to the regional championship game that the Hawks could win playoff games if they could muster one goal, given the stellar play of their defense. “Minus the Warren game (a 2-0 loss May 14) where we just played bad universally against a nice, organized team, we’ve been scoring almost every game since that four game losing streak,” Crawford said. “I feel comfortable whoever we step up against that we have the ability to get at least one (goal). And with the defense this year, if you get one, that could win it.” •Niles West advanced to the championship game of its own regional, played last Saturday, after blanking ninth-seeded Whitney Young, 3-0, May 20. The seventhseeded Wolves faced No. 1 seed New Trier, an 8-0 winner over Maine East in its regional semifinal game May 19, for the regional title. Junior Nichole Lopatin, one of the Chicago area’s leading goal scorers, tallied all three goals. She now has accumulated 36 on the season. Senior goalkeeper ChiChi Osuji recorded the shutout for the 14-7-2 Wolves.
breaking the Maine South school 1,600 record (4:14.82) at state. “Bingo, yes, that’s my goal,” he said. “If I can do that, that’s (the time)
usually all-state, but I’m not worried as much about (getting) all-state. I just want to break that (record). The future bodes well for the Hawks with Dilfer being a junior, while Jordan and Jarvis are both sophomores. “It’s always good to see underclassmen get down there and get some experience,” Sutschek said.
niles west The Wolves got third-place finishes in the pole vault from senior Errol Pasia and their 4x200 relay team of Brandon Costantino, Jeff Willer and Jackson Denley (all seniors) and Matt Galanopoulos (sophomore), but didn’t secure a spot at state until the final event of the day: the 4x400 relay. Their team of Costantino, Denley, senior Mike Malina and sophomore Frankie Santa came in second with a time of 3:24.47. “We had about four different events that we thought we could maybe get down(state),” said Niles West coach Chris Vivone. “It was just nice to get those four together. It was the first time they’ve ran together all year. We knew they could do something.”

Dave Says
Budgeting together works better Dear Dave, I have a question about budgeting. I give myself and Dave Says advice by my husband $150 money dave ramsey a month each for blow money to be used on whatever we want. I’m upset because he spends all his eating out, then he buys other things he wants that he has no money for. Am I being too stingy? Cheryl Dear Cheryl, I think you guys are handling your money poorly. You’re acting like his mother instead of his wife, and he’s acting like a little boy instead of a man. You don’t want to give your husband an allowance and then not be happy when he spends money “he didn’t have” because he went over what you dictated to him. That’s a bad budget process. The budget process, if you’re the nerd in the family, should start with you writing it all out. Then he sits down with you, has an equal say in the decisions and you two okay it together. He needs to understand that this is you asking him to manup and be part of the decisionmaking process, so that you can both be in agreement as to what’s best for the family. In one sense, you may not like it at first, because right now you’ve got control of things. But in another sense, I’ll bet you’re pretty tired of carrying the weight of all the financial decision making and being the only adult in the household. —Dave Dave Ramsey is America’s trusted voice on money and business.
