troy students put cultural heritage on display Students celebrate with Multicultural Night William B. Orenic Intermediate School and Troy Middle School students celebrated their diverse heritage this month with the district’s third annual Multicultural Night, held in WBO’s cafeteria. Students with family roots in Germany, Lithuania, Australia,

Puerto Rico, Slovenia, Thailand, Ireland, Poland, the Philippines and the United Arab Emirates shared information about their families’ homelands with maps, cultural objects, literature and ethnic foods and some with dress attire.

There were globes at each table, as well, with markers showing the exact locations of the countries. Students who visited were given a passport that was stamped at each cultural destination for a prize at the end. Fifth grader Sophia Taylor was one of the students who shared her German ancestry. Native animals of Germany include wild

hogs, deer and fox, Sophia told visitors, and the country’s residents sometimes wear lederhosen and dirndl on special occasions. Sophia also displayed a painting of her grandfather’s coat of arms and handed out plates of sauerkraut, German sausage and pretzels. This was the first year Troy Middle School students were added to the William B. Orenic Intermediate

School event. Teachers Beth Kowalczyk and Martha Paben organized the event. “We wanted to create an event for students to showcase their cultures in a fun way,” WBO ELA teacher Martha Paben said. “Students who attend are able to grow in their understanding of

Village board tentatively approves rescue squad vehicle purchase Vehicle would replace current water main trailer By Andrea Earnest Sentinel Staff

sweditor@buglenewspapers.com @ShorewoodNews

The Shorewood Village Board gave tentative approval for the purchase of a 1989 rescue squad vehicle at its Oct. 13 meeting. According to the village, the Plainfield Fire Department is planning to sell a 1989 Saulsbury Rescue Squad vehicle. But since the fire department hasn’t had a meeting yet to approve the sale of the vehicle, the board tentatively approved the purchase, which is dependent on the fire department’s decision. Chris Drey, Shorewood public works superintendent, said the vehicle has 21,000 miles and is in

excellent shape. “They definitely maintained the vehicle,” Drey said. “It is an older vehicle, it’s in great shape though,” Drey said. According to board documents, public works has been searching for a vehicle to replace their current water main trailer. The current trailer is 32 feet long and hard to maneuver through some areas. Drey said the new vehicle would be easily navigable through Shorewood’s streets. If approved, public works would keep tools for water or sewer excavation on the vehicle. Board documents stated that this purchase is not budgeted. The vehicle has a market value of $12,000 to $14,000. If approved, the money to purchase the rescue squad vehicle would come out of the major equipment fund. Drey added that the village is hoping to negotiate with the cost of the vehicle down to $12,000.

Her wording on the artwork – “Moving up to a bully free zone” – fit with the contest’s theme this year of, “Bullyfree Zone.” “I was excited,” Uqdah said of how she felt when learning she had placed. Uqdah said she rides a bus to school herself and that being a bully on a school bus is a bad thing.

She did her project on pink poster board last spring in teacher Sarah Tyrrell’s class. Her teacher this year is Deborah Riley. “We are incredibly proud of her that she was honored with this award,” said Troy Heritage Trail Principal Brooke Allen. The contest is an annual event sponsored by the Illinois Secretary of State’s office in conjunction with the Illinois Association for Pupil Transportation and designed to raise awareness of school bus safety issues. Uqdah and the other winners of the poster contest will be honored at an awards ceremony and reception in Springfield on Oct. 23 and will have their works displayed on the Secretary of State’s website. Uqdah will also receive $25 for her placement. National School Bus Safety Week is Oct. 19-23.

Visitors to the veneration of St. Maria Goretti Oct. 15 at St. Mary Immaculate in Plainfield stopped briefly at the saint’s glass casket to view her remains, encased inside a wax sculpture of her likeness.

Relics of St. Maria Goretti draw faithful to area Relics will continue on tour through November by Marney Simon for the bugle

sweditor@buglenewspapers.com @JolietILNews

The faces of the faithful who exited St. Mary Immaculate Catholic Church Oct. 15 told a story without words. Thousands of Catholics made the trip to the Plainfield church to visit with a child who passed away more than a century ago, paying their condolences but also seeking grace and peace. The church was one of the stops on the Pilgrimage of Mercy, a national tour of the major relics of St. Maria Goretti. “I think it’s just a way to reflect, just having a modern saint present reconnectspeoplewiththechurch,” said Pat Sullivan, a member of the Knight of Columbus Assembly 3232 in Plainfield. “It reestablishes their connection with the church. It’s a very emotional bond, a lot of tears.” The Knights provided the honor guard during the veneration for St. Maria Goretti, an all-day event to honor her life. For Catholics, the veneration was a chance to reaffirm their faith. “Folks from all over the Midwest are coming just to pray with and honor the life and the remains of this saint,” said Ryan Essington,

youth outreach coordinator at St. Mary Immaculate. The relics are on tour for the first time in the U.S. and include the bodily remains of St. Maria Goretti, encased in a wax sculpture of her body that lies inside a glass casket. Killed in 1902 at the age of 11, St. Maria Goretti is the youngest saint in the Catholic Church. Those attending the veneration were there to acknowledge her devotion to God and her ability to forgive in the worst circumstance. Born into poverty in Italy, Maria was murdered by her neighbor, Alessandro Serenelli, after she fought off his attempt to assault her. She was brutally stabbed 14 times, and died the next day from an infection brought on by the attack. Her last words were, “I forgive Alessandro Serenelli … and I want him with me in heaven forever.” During his prison sentence, Alessandro is said to have been visited by Maria, who offered her forgiveness. Alessandro converted to a holy life. He became a lay Franciscan brother, and upon his release from prison, visited Maria’s mother, who also offered her forgiveness. Both Alessandro and Maria’s mother were present at her canonization in Rome in 1950. The Catholic church has credited Maria credited with the most known miracles by a Catholic Saint. For those who visited the parish to view her relics, it was an opportunity to strengthen their belief in God.

“As Catholics, we believe in an afterlife,” Essington said. “There are people who have gone ahead of us, young and old, who have lived lives of incredible holiness. Who have lived lives of incredible service to the church here on earth. “We believe that those who have given their lives fully and completely to God have made it to heaven. So it’s just important for us, because there’s a hope. There’s a hope to life after death, and there’s a hope to heaven. The saints are the people who have paved the way for us.” The relics of St. Maria Goretti will continue on tour through November at churches throughout the country.

Man sentenced to 35 years for Shorewood murder Michael Eberle, 45, guilty of 2012 murder A homeless man was sentenced to 35 years in prison last week for the murder of a 69-yearold employee of a burial vault company in Shorewood. The Will County State’s

Attorney’s Office said Michael Eberle, 45, pleaded guilty Aug. 6. to first-degree murder in connection with the beating death of Patrick Shaughnessy on the morning of March 25, 2012.

The following items were compiled from the official reports of the Joliet and Shorewood police departments. Appearing in the police blotter does not constitute a finding of guilt, only a court of law can make that determination.

Prosecutors described the murder as random. They said Eberle broke into Knauer Industries, found Shaughnessy working alone and beat him to death. Another employee who arrived for work looked through a window and saw Eberle vandalizing a

vending machine inside the business after the murder. Will County Sheriff’s Police found the defendant near the scene of the murder. A judge found Eberle fit to stand trial at the conclusion of a pretrial hearing in 2013.

“We tried to take a look into one of the burning buildings. I cannot describe what was inside. There are no words for how terrible it was. In the Intensive Care Unit six patients were burning in their beds.” So said Lajos Zoltan Jecs, a nurse at the hospital the U.S. bombed. This image is now spiraling through the Internet and across the global consciousness. The U.S. bombed a hospital in Kunduz, Afghanistan, killing 22 people: doctors, staff, patients (including three children). The hospital was not “collateral damage”; it was deliberately targeted, deliberately destroyed, in multiple bombing runs that lasted at least half an hour. Medecins Sans Frontieres (Doctors Without Borders), which operated the hospital, contacted its sources in the U.S. government immediately, pleading for the attack to stop - to no avail. The bombing continued until the hospital, with more than 180 occupants, was destroyed. And we’re left with the aftermath of a mass murderer spree, except the killer isn’t dead or hogtied and shoved into a police wagon. The killer gives a press conference. Oh same old, same old! The killer offers condolences, promises to investigate itself. “If errors were committed, we will acknowledge them,” said Gen. John Campbell, commander of American forces in Afghanistan. The killer, as usual, flees from any real responsibility. But this time, maybe . . . maybe . . . something is different. The organization that ran the demolished hospital, as Glenn Greenwald has pointed out, is a Western-based international humanitarian association with media credibility and powerful support outside the Third World. It’s not like we’ve simply bombed another wedding party or killed a few more women and children in an outlying village. On this occasion, those who have suffered also have a global voice. Jecs’ words cry out from the MSF website: “It was crazy,” he said. “We

had to organize a mass casualty plan in the office, seeing which doctors were alive and available to help. We did an urgent surgery for one of our doctors. Unfortunately he died there on the office table. We did our best, but it wasn’t enough.” And the world, or a sizable piece of it, can put itself inside the burning, deliberately bombed hospital. And the U.S. is accused of committing a war crime. I’ve been pondering those words ever since they entered the conversation: pondering their moral weight, their heart-stopping, accusatory coldness. My initial reaction was, well, of course it’s a war crime. Indeed, the two words, “war” and “crime,” ought to be inextricably linked. It’s impossible to wage war especially the way a superpower wages war, with so many weapons of mass destruction at the ready - without violating conventional moral strictures, without killing civilians in mindnumbing numbers, with virtually every action. So why is this different? Bombing a hospital, especially with deliberate intent - apparently at the behest of the Afghan government, which, reportedly, hated the hospital for treating the injured regardless what side they’re on - is depraved and utterly reckless. Not only did the U.S. kill patients and staff members from all over the world, who were working there because of a commitment to give help to those in harm’s way, but it destroyed one of the few medical centers in a city with a population of over 300,000. All of this clearly makes the act a crime by any moral standard, but in point of fact, we’ve been doing this for so long and causing so much horrific damage - in the long term as well as the short term, considering, for instance, the environmental consequences wrought by the use of depleted uranium missiles and bombs - that one more act of carnage, 22 more murdered civilians, hardly seems more “criminal” than all that happened throughout the Middle East before the Oct. 3 bombing.

Nevertheless, I felt a need, in my heart and in our collective heart, to address the bombing’s strategists and apologists with moral directness, of the sort my friend Kathy Kelly of Voices for Creative Nonviolence, a long-time antiwar activist, recently described: “Before the 2003 Shock and Awe bombing in Iraq,” she wrote, “a group of activists living in Baghdad would regularly go to city sites that were crucial for maintaining health and well-being in Baghdad, such as hospitals, electrical facilities, water purification plants, and schools, and string large vinyl banners between the trees outside these buildings which read: ‘To Bomb This Site Would Be A War Crime.’ We encouraged people in U.S. cities to do the same, trying to build empathy for people trapped in Iraq, anticipating a terrible aerial bombing.” She encouraged doing this again and, in fact, a public demonstration was held in front of Stroger Hospital, Chicago’s enormous county hospital, protesting the Kunduz bombing. Suddenly I imagined Americans standing in front of every hospital in the country, proclaiming that there’s no difference between bombing a hospital in Afghanistan and bombing one here. And that’s when I realized the significance of calling the bombing a war crime. Doing so attempts to bring both moral and legal force to bear on what was done and interrupts the postwar-crime press conference. Indeed, the act creates - births - this force: an international conscience. Because the outrage is global, the time is ripe. To call the bombing of the Kunduz hospital a war crime is, perhaps, the most effective way people have, at this juncture of human history, to address war itself, to stand up to its powerful perpetrators and put a halt to their uncontrolled behavior.

move on Hutchison and Bauer head to state for third-straight season

By Scott Taylor sports editor

staylor@enterprisepublications.com @Taylor_Sports

It was another strong sectional showing for the local contingent. The Joliet Catholic doubles team of McCoy Hutchison and Maddie Bauer is headed to state for the third time as a doubles team after winning a sectional title for the second straight year Saturday at the Plainfield North Sectional. “It’s really exciting to be going to state for the third time,” Hutchison said. “It is a really good accomplishment I think.” The junior duo have progressed each year and their chemistry is a big key to their success. “We’ve been working really well together with our movement,” Bauer said. “We know each other’s strengths and weaknesses. We know what to say to each other and don’t get mad at each other.” “We don’t get mad at each other and stay positive with one another,” Hutchison added.

times the JCA duo has advanced to state

After finishing in the top 16 of the back draw last year, they hope to do even better this year. “We want to play really well,” Hutchinson said. “We don’t want to have too high of expectations because everyone is really good. We’re hoping to do better than we have done. We have to stay consistent and put away our shots.” “We want to get as far as we can at state and do our best,” Bauer said. “We want to play our match. “I feel like we are playing the best we ever have. Our shot selection is great. Hopefully we can keep it up.” The duo cruised to the title, not losing a set in the tournament. Joliet sophomore Eileen Carney is headed back to state for her second time after repeating as sectional champion as well. “It is very nerve-wracking because I want to do the same or better than last year, hopefully better,” Carney said. “Hopefully

St. francis

Truman State rallies back to defeat St. Francis, 24-20 Truman State University overcame a 20-0 deficit with three third-quarter touchdowns en route to a 24-20 win over University of St. Francis in nonconference football action Saturday at ATI Field at Joliet Memorial Stadium. The loss ended the Saints’ fivegame winning streak and dropped their season record to 5-2. NCAA Division II Truman State won its second in a row and improved to 3-4 on the year. Saturday’s game marked the first-ever meeting

between the two schools. USF scored three touchdowns in the game’s first 20 minutes to build a 20-0 advantage. On their first possession, the Saints traveled 75 yards on 11 plays capped by a 10-yard run by senior running back John Magee (Plainfield, Ill./ Plainfield South) to take the early lead. Truman State fumbled the ensuing kickoff and USF recovered at the Bulldog 28-yard line. Four plays later, on a 4th-and-3 from the TSU 21, sophomore quarterback

Don Butkus (Dyer, Ind./ Mount Carmel) found sophomore tight end Adam Morrison (Rosemont, Ill./ East Leyden) wide open across the middle for a touchdown. The extra-point attempt failed. USF capitalized on another Bulldog turnover early in the second quarter. One play after sophomore safety Dekota Doerr (Metamora, Ill./ Metamora) returned an interception 49 yards, senior wideout Brandon Noland (Chicago, Ill./ Hubbard) scored on an 11-yard run to put the Saints on top 20-0 at the 9:55 mark of the second quarter. Truman State got on the board on a 24-yard Roger Howard field goal in the final minute of the half. The Bulldogs took the opening

drive of the second half 65 yards on eight plays and found the end zone for the first time in the game on Andy Satulla’s 1-yard plunge. Satulla scored his second TD of the game on a 22-yard burst two plays after Austin Zoda’s interception and 15-yard runback. Satulla finished the game with 172 yards on 31 carries. On the third play of USF’s next possession, Jordan Brown intercepted a pass and brought it 31 yards to the end zone to give Truman State a 24-20 lead with 1:22 remaining in the third quarter. Starting their next drive on their own 12-yard line, the Saints advanced to the Truman State 17, but an incomplete pass on 4thand-3 gave the ball back to the

Bulldogs early in the fourth quarter. USF penetrated the Truman State red zone again late in the game, but the Bulldogs stopped the Saints on fourth down again, this time at the 4-yard line. Truman State held a 384-215 edge in total yards, including a 226-117 advantage on the ground. Bulldog signal caller Randy Schroeder completed 17-of-35 attempts for 158 yards with two interceptions. Butkus was 12-of-23 for 98 yards with a TD and two picks. Magee rushed for 71 yards on 22 attempts. USF continues its three-game homestand next Saturday when it takes on Lindenwood UniversityBelleville in a Mid-States Football Association crossover game at ATI Field. Kickoff is set for 1 p.m.

Benet hands Joliet Catholic first loss Turnovers hurt Hilltoppers in ESCC battle By tory dean www.buglenewspapers.com @Voyager_Sport

On a cold Friday night No. 6 Joliet Catholic Academy looked to keep their undefeated streak going as they faced off against Benet Academy on Benedictine University’s field. Benet (6-2) would hand JCA (71) its first loss of the season by a score of 24-21. While JCA would never take the lead during the game, the game was very back and forth. The Redwings scored first as Jack Sznajder found Matt Hembrough in the end zone for six. “We put together our best game of the year tonight and everyone sees what happens in beating a great team.” Sznajder said.

Sznajder would finish the game 26-for-38 for 260 yards passing and three touchdowns. It wouldn’t be long before the Hilltoppers would find the end zone as Cade Earl would connect with Michael Johnson on a wheel route to score their first points of the evening, tying the game at seven in the second quarter. Earl went 13-for-30 for 177 yards passing and three touchdowns. Benet tried to answer back on the following possession, but committed the first turnover of the night instead. Colin Hall would fumble the ball after gaining yards on a screen pass and the Hilltoppers would recover. The Hilltoppers wouldn’t be able to cash in on the turnover before halftime. At the half Benet had 152 yards passing and 38 yards

rushing. Joliet Catholic posted 55 yards passing and 98 yards rushing. Benet received the kickoff to start the second half as they looked to take the lead on their first drive. It wouldn’t take long before Sznajder would connect with Will O’Grady on a play-action pass out route to score the Redwings’ second touchdown of the evening. Joliet Catholic would try to answer on the following possession, however Alec McEachern picked off Earl’s pass and Benet took over, leading 14-7. The Hilltopper defense stood strong after the interception and forced the Redwings to kick a field goal to make the score 17-7. Facing their biggest deficit of the game, JCA’s hopes of scoring on its next drive would come to an end when Johnson fumbled the ball and Benet recovered. Just

On the first drive of the fourth quarter Earl connected with Bill Rotnicki for JCA’s second touchdown of the night, making the score 17-14. Following the touchdown the Hilltoppers would successfully recover an onside kick but did not capitalize and had to punt the ball away.

I just have to keep it together mentally.” Making it to state as a freshman should pay dividends this year for Carney. “I think it will put my mind at ease because I know what to expect,” Carney said. “I know the players, coaches and all the different schools that are there. My goal is to finish in the top 30. I know i have the shots, I just have to commit to the shots and execute.” Carney knew the sectional matches would be tough with one of the best sectional semifinals in the state. For the second straight year she faced Plainfield North sophomore Gabby Ochalik in the championship, 6-4, 7-6. “My main goal was to win

Maddie Alessio posted 30 digs, while Brooklyn Bachmann had 112 assists. “This weekend we came out of pool 2nd on Friday but were able to come back strong Saturday to make top four,” said coach Carrie Prosek. “Our communication and defense is starting to peak at the right time and everyone contributed at the right times.”

The Redwings would take advantage of the JCA fumble as Sznajder found Charlie Weidenbach in the end zone to make the score 24-14. The Hilltoppers turned the ball over again, however, Benet wouldn’t be able to score. JCA would answer the call when they got the ball back. Earl found Rotnicki in the end zone for their second connection of the night to bring the score to 24-21. “First of all Benet’s defense played really well creating four turnovers,” said JCA coach Dan

Sharp. “We’re not going to be able to turn the ball over four times against a good football team and expect to win. Our defense did a nice job of getting us the ball, but we didn’t quite take advantage.” For Benet, it was a huge win in the closing weeks of the regular season. “It was an inspiring performance, these guys fought hard for four quarters.” Benet coach Pat New said. “Joliet is such a competitive team, they’re never down. For us to come out with a win is very exciting for us.” Up next for Benet is Marian Catholic, while Joliet Catholic will close out the regular season with Marist next week.

It could have been anyones’s day, it is just who was playing best.” Joliet Catholic’s Nina Bertino is headed to state for the fourth time, the past three years in singles. “Last year I got top 32 in the state tournament, so this year I’m going for top 16,” Bertino said. “I want to be seeded. My record was better last year, but hopefully my history will help me.” She is comfortable with where her game is at right now. “I like where my game is,” Bertino said. “I’ve gotten a lot more confident over the years. I used to play scared all the time and have definitely developed confidence. I rush the net more now, too.” While she is a senior, she doesn’t feel the pressure. She is

looking forward to making one strong final run at state. “I have to keep my head on straight and play my game. I can’t let my emotions get to me. I have to play my heart out and play to win,” Bertino said. “I want to have a lot of fun and make it last.” The competition at the sectional will only help her at state. Bertino finished third in the sectional. After falling to Ochalik in the semifinals, she beat Jessica Chen of Neuqua Valley in the third place match. “All of the girls who made it to the semis are good players,” Bertino said. “I like to compete with them and I enjoy playing with them. It is good to have two good matches before state. It is good practice for state and I’m going to practice really hard before state.”
