SINCE 1916

J ane F lynn | @janeflynnDE Dan Caulkins, of Decatur, and Mike Lynch, of Delta, Pa., work on the team’s bike prior to Saturday afternoon’s race held at Du Quoin State Fairgrounds. The bike was ridden by Jeff Carver Jr., 24, who has been riding motorcycles since he was 4. Carver is the third generation of his family to participate in AMA Pro Racing. “I just love the thrill and the way it makes me feel, the excitement,” Carver said.

Nine years later, flat track racing is back Jordan dunCan | @jordanduncanDE For the first time in almost a decade, the Du Quoin State Fairgrounds buzzed with the sounds of motorcycles and people cheering during the AMA Pro Flat Track race Saturday. The race took its hiatus after the Illinois Motorcycle Dealer’s Association stopped

promoting at the fairgrounds nine years ago. It returned when the promotion company Family Events took on the event for the southern Illinois track. Bryan Smith won the final mile-long race, crossing the finish line less than one hundredth of a second before Jared Mees. “That was one of the most intense races

I’ve ever rode because this track is fast,” Smith said. “The corner speed is probably the fastest track you’ll go to. So you’re balls to the wall this whole time” Flat track racing, the oldest form of motorcycle racing, has motorcyclists ride in groups as they let off the gas while sliding around each turn at about 100 to 140 mph.

“You got to dig down deep and do things you don’t think you can do and just grit your teeth and say a little prayer going 130,” Smith said. Francis Meehan, of Shilo, used to race flat track in the ‘60s and ‘70s and said a fast track has better traction, which allows better control and gives way to higher speeds. Please see MOTOR | 4

Alumna conveys college life in debut novel Chase Myers | @chasemyers_DE While many recognized authors from SIU are professors who have written textbooks, fiction writers who got their start here and broke the mold into the professional world tend to be overlooked. Kate Dierkes, an alumna from Chicago, published her first novel “Finding Dell” in May, a project three years in the making. The plot follows protagonist Dell Hewitt, a 19-year-old sophomore at a fictional northern Kentucky university. She believes she has the world figured out, until she finds her supposed perfect boyfriend out with another girl. This launches a dramatic chain of events and flips her world upside down. Dell finds love elsewhere in a young film major, which throws her into a new life journey and more honest relationship.

“I knew that I wanted to write about the college experience, just knowing that the college years are such a pivotal, emotionallycharged time in life,” said Dierkes. “I wanted to draw from that setting for a coming-of-age story.” Dierkes said her time as a Saluki heavily influenced the novel, even referencing Thompson Point dormitories in her dedication page. “I think that anyone who reads the book and is familiar with SIU would definitely see some similarities,” she said. “I really love SIU’s campus and I think I tried to capture the outdoorsy essence of campus in the book.” She said the writing process began about two years after she graduated in 2009 with a degree in journalism and minor in creative writing. “The aspect of journalism that helps a lot is being able to think,

because I think in fiction it’s just easy to get carried away forever,” she said. “In journalism, you really have to get to your point a little bit faster.” She began writing in November, which is known in the writing community as National Novel Writing Month, where writers are encouraged to produce about 50,000 words in one month, she said. “I started writing it a little bit as a hobby during that, set it down for a while and then I kept rereading it and rewriting it,” she said. “Three years of revisions later, it kind of came to where I wanted it to be.” When developing the characters in “Finding Dell,” she drew inspiration from people she met at SIU, slowly changing their characteristics over time. The characters became

increasingly fictional as she read more about the different psychologies of people as they progress, she said. “Some of the real people know [about their characters] and they’re excited about it, but I don’t know if they’ve read the book yet so we’ll see how they feel about it later,” she said. She said she worked as a fulltime consultant while writing, which posed as difficult when searching for time and creativity. “I would work all day in data and not in a very creative environment, so I would have to come home to decompress before I would write,” she said. “Actually finding the time and energy to do it while working was tough.” The length of the story became the hardest part because she was used to writing short stories for class, maxing out at about 20

pages, she said. “When I really started getting into it I was dealing with 300 pages of writing,” she said. “While doing edits, revisions and moving things around, it was so hard to keep track of everything.” She said although the process took more than three years and the novel was published only about a month ago, the responses from peers, family and those who have read it have been positive. She is in the process of marketing the book to a large audience, she said. “The library in my hometown decided to carry it and so they just put it on the shelf the other day, which is exciting for me to see,” she said. “I wanted to go take a picture of it myself, but someone had already checked it out so that’s a good response I guess. I’m pretty optimistic.”

The best games of 2015 are still coming grant Meyer | @GrantMeyerDe We are halfway through 2015. With the exception of games such as “The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt” and “Batman: Arkham Knight,” the majority of this year’s highest profile and best video games are expected to be released during the remainder of the year, as the highest grossing income period for the industry tends to be from August to the holiday season. Below are the five most anticipated games confirmed to be released in the second half of this year. “Assassin’s Creed Syndicate” The stealth-action series Assassin’s Creed released a game each year, and some gamers view this franchise as becoming very stale since the series original debut in 2007. “Assassin’s Creed Syndicate” plans to change that. Set in Victorian era London during the Industrial Revolution, the player takes the role of twins Jacob and Evie Frye as they navigate the London criminal underworld. The standard aspects of stealthaction gameplay are present but improved, as shown at the Electronic Entertainment Expo in June. New equipment is also added to the game such as brass knuckles, cane swords and compact revolvers. The most interesting

new toy is a rope launcher that can be used to create zip lines as well as scale buildings more quickly than ever before. Another exciting aspect of this game is that it has the second playable female protagonist in an Assassin’s Creed game, the first being Aveline de Granpré of “Assassin’s Creed III: Liberation,” which was released in 2012. “Fallout 4” “Fallout 4” is the assumed frontrunner for best game of the year. The developer, Bethesda Game Studios, has a legendary reputation. Their three previous, non-mobile platform games, “Elders Scrolls IV: Oblivion,” “Fallout 3” and “Elders Scrolls V: Skyrim,” were all “Game of the Year” winners in their respective years from multiple gaming publications and websites. Bethesda is the king of openworld video games, and “Fallout 4” seems to be no exception. Containing a map three times the size of Skyrim, the game is expected to feel massive and immersive with plenty of places to explore. The classic Fallout staples such as the pip-boy and the Vault-Tec Assisted Targeting System, or V.A.T.S., are also included in the game. The pip-boy is a computer attached to your forearm, and V.A.T.S. is a gameplay mechanic letting the player slow down time

and target enemies on specific body parts such as the head, arms or legs. The ability to play the game in first-person or third-person returns as well. There are plenty of new things to look forward to such as building and customizing a personalized set of power armor and tweaking and upgrading weapons. The biggest addition will be building a town the player has to defend against enemies. Needless to say, “Fallout 4” is going to be something special. “Halo 5: Guardians” The Halo franchise is one of the best first-person shooter series. It is Microsoft’s flagship firstparty video game property. The original developer, Bungie, created the games until 2010 when the franchise was handed off to 343 Industries, a company created by Microsoft for the sole purpose of developing Halo games. In November 2012, 343 Industries released “Halo 4,” which was received well, but they made some changes to the Halo formula that did not sit well with fans. “Halo 5: Guardians” seems to be the company’s way of making up for the mistakes of “Halo 4.” They seem to be pulling out all the stops for this game. It contains a revamped multiplayer returning to the classic roots of what made Halo great with

some necessary modern game design additions. A new multiplayer mode called Warzone is added combining the two most popular genres in the industry, first-person shooters and multiplayer battle online arenas. A new story mode is added that can be played in four player co-op with eight unique characters to play as. And many classic characters return from previous Halo games and Halo’s excellent expanded lore. Based on what little we know about “Halo 5: Guardians,” it is safe to say it is a good time to be a Halo fan. “Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain” The Metal Gear series is one of the oldest in gaming, with its original released in 1987. Unfortunately, this seems to be creator Hideo Kojima’s last Metal Gear game. He is leaving the company he works for, Konami, in December, but not before releasing his swan song in the form of “Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain.” Bigg Boss returns as the protagonist. Waking up from a coma after the events of the prequel, “Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes,” he travels to Afghanistan to search for the man responsible for destroying his organization’s home base. The company has already showed a ton of footage in action and it is

shaping up to be an epic experience. The game takes the stealth-action the series is known for and throws it into an open world, in which a player can explore anywhere they want. We have yet to see a game with stealth gameplay this robust combined into an open environment. This game is sure to be up there with Kojima’s finest work. “Star Wars: Battlefront” One of the most talked about games of the past few years, “Star Wars: Battlefront,” is the reimagining of the classic game of the same name. This game is being developed by the famous Battlefield series creators EA Digital Illusions Creative Entertainment, more commonly known as DICE. Playable in either first-person or third-person, the game takes the fun of a great shooting game and adds the look of Star Wars. This is a massive, multiplayer shooter that puts the player in famous Star Wars battles. If you ever wanted to be a stormtrooper of the Galactic Empire or a soldier of the Rebel Alliance this is your opportunity. DICE is also known for their top of the line graphic capabilities and this game represents that ability. Ultimately, if you are a Star Wars or shooter fan, keep a look out for this game.

Bryan Smith, who won the mile-long final event, said the track was looser than the last time he raced here nine years ago, which may be from recent rains. “You would think that, with the rain the track would be too wet,” Smith said. “But it prevents them from prepping it in the correct way so it gets too dry on the surface and too wet underneath.” J ordan d uncan @jordanduncanDE

“Some of these guys won’t hardly let off,” said Chew Larcom, of Radnor, Ohio. “They’ll just be on the gas and stay on it all the way through the corners.” Smith said he gave too much room to other riders earlier in the day, so he closed the gaps in the final event, earning him the win. He said racing is in his nature. “I’m a racer, man. It’s born into you,” he said. “It’s something that you can’t buy or sell, you either got it or not.” Mia Moore, of Radnor, Ohio, said flat track racing has a very tightly knit community. “Flat track is one of those kind of sports where you might be competitors, but you’re also a family,” said Moore, who photographs the events. “It’s the first sport I’ve been to where someone could have their bike break down and someone else will strap their number to the back of their bike so they can get out there and race against each other.” While the sport is competitive, opponents also rely on each other, she said. “You know that your life is depending on the person beside you not making a mistake, and their lives depend on you not making mistakes, so they all work together too,” Moore said. She said there have been four fatalities at the track. “It was actually too difficult for some to return because the memories are still fresh, but at the same time, it is part of our history,” Moore said. She said while the sport is on an upswing, it deserves more attention. “This is probably the least recognized, least appreciated, but most exciting and

most addictive sport I can think of,” Moore said. Leah Burdette, marketing coordinator for Family Events, said the fairgrounds is an excellent facility for the race. She said the track is beautiful and provides excellent viewing, as you can see the entire track from any seat. “I love Indy, but I just fell in love with this track,” Burdette, of Indianapolis, said. Larcom said although it is a great track, its location is not conducive to filling seats. “You’re out in the middle of corn country, where the other venues are right off the freeway,” Larcom said. He said part of the reason flat track’s popularity is rising is because you can stream the races on the Internet, but he prefers to be present at the track. “We would rather be here and see it, touch it, taste it, smell it,” he said. Terry Goodwin, of Waterloo, said he started racing at age 18 until he got married and had kids at 25, then started up again when he was 40. “I’ve had quite a bit of fun and won my share of races and fell a few times but still nothing serious, luckily,” he said. Goodwin said while racing is dangerous, he got hurt more playing fastpitch softball than when he was racing. Burdette said flat track racing has taken a downturn since the 1980s, but has recently been on the rise since its inclusion in the X Games and a younger generation’s introduction to the sport. She said they hope to host the race annually in Du Quoin. “We’re glad to be back next year to keep it going and be back for good,” Burdette said

J ordan d uncan | @jordanduncanDE Kenny Coolbeth Jr., Bryan Smith and Jared Mees, who took third, first and second, respectively, spray champagne at one another in celebraton of their win. Smith said he had to stay as close as possible to his rivals to ensure his win Saturday. “I knew after the dash and the heat I had to be tight on these guys coming off [turn] four, because in the heat I gave them too much room,” he said.

U.S. World Cup win draws record TV ratings Kevin Baxter | Los Angeles Times Fourteen hours after its onesided win in the final of the Women’s World Cup, the U.S. team gathered Monday near Vancouver’s bay-side convention center for another in a seemingly endless procession of public victory celebrations. On the edge of the crowd a small woman pushed forward, holding out a bag of candy. “Make sure they get it,” said Aya Miyama, captain of the Japanese team. Even the vanquished came to pay tribute to the victors, so complete was the Americans’ 5-2 triumph over the defending champions Sunday. “It’s been unbelievable,” said Carli Lloyd, whose hat trick in the first 16 minutes of the final also strained credulity. Her three goals were more than any team had scored in the previous six Women’s World Cup finals. And it also made the U.S. the first team to win three championships. But those weren’t the only records broken Sunday. The game drew 26.7 million viewers to Fox and Telemundo, the largest U.S. television audience for a soccer game. The 2014 men’s World Cup final was watched by

26.5 million people on ABC and the Spanish-language Univision network. The average audience for Sunday’s Cup final was also better than every game in the recently-concluded NBA Finals as well as the 2014 Sochi Olympic Winter Games. In 90 minutes, Lloyd went from a player often overlooked on her own team to one of the most famous athletes in the U.S. “It’s definitely gone to another level,” Lloyd said. “I’m not sure I’m ready for that.” She’ll get a few months to find out. The World Cup championship team will begin a 10-game victory tour next month that is expected to stop in Southern California during the fall. That will leave Jill Ellis and her coaching staff little time to prepare for the U.S. team’s next big test, the 2016 Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro. And there’s a lot of work to be done between now and then. “There will be a transition after this World Cup,” Ellis said. “Moving forward younger players will start to break through even more.” That’s by necessity more than choice. The U.S. had the oldest team in the World Cup with 10 players age 30 or older. Three of

them — Christie Rampone, Abby Wambach and Shannon Boxx — may stick around for next summer’s Olympics but no further. Others have decisions to make. Goalkeeper Hope Solo will be closing in on her 38th birthday when the next World Cup kicks off. And Lloyd, who promised to

be back, by then will be weeks short of her 37th birthday. “A lot of them have a lot to think about and mull over,” Ellis said. “And that’s something we’ll get to a bit further down the line.” Regardless of how those decisions turn out, the core of Ellis’ team going forward is likely to be built

around a handful of young players who distinguished themselves in this tournament. Defenders Meghan Klingenberg, 26, and Julie Johnston, 23, entered 2014 with fewer than two dozen starts for the U.S. national team between them. But injuries forced Ellis to pair them with Ali Krieger and Becky Sauerbrunn on a makeshift back line. And since that quartet started its first game together in March, the U.S. has gone 11-0-2 and allowed just four goals, with Johnston making the short list for the World Cup’s top player award. Morgan Brian, the youngest player on the team at 22, started the last three World Cup games at a new position, holding midfielder, and responded brilliantly, freeing Lloyd up to join the attack. Lloyd scored five of her six World Cup goals with Brian playing behind; three of those goals put the U.S. ahead to stay. Then there’s the injury-plagued Alex Morgan, 26, who erased any question about her toughness. Hampered by a knee injury early in the tournament, she started the final five games on artificial turf, sparking what had been a moribund offense.
