LFHS Plans Later Start for School BY STEVE SADIN DAILYNORTHSHORE.COM

L

AKE FOREST—Lake Forest High School students will start school later next year and not attend each class daily. A new “hybrid” schedule effective in the 2016-17 school year making significant changes to the traditional school day now in place was introduced during a Lake Forest High School District 115 Board of Education meeting Dec. 1 at the West Campus Administration Center. The school day will start up to an hour later than the current 7:50 a.m. opening. Classes will begin at 8:15 a.m. Mondays, Tuesdays and Fridays while commencing at 8:50 a.m. Wednesdays and Thursdays. School will let out later but the precise time is uncertain, according to an email to Daily North Shore from Principal Chala Holland and Assistant Superintendent Laurie Wilcox. Continued on PG 12

AKE FOREST – A Lake Forest College professor specializing in the politics of the Middle East and Islam believes the most effective longterm weapons against the Islamic State and its supporters like the San Bernardino shooters are ideological ones coming from the governments of Muslimdominated countries. Admitting the fight against the Islamic State is a deeply complicated struggle, Fatima Rahman, an assistant professor in the Lake Forest College Department of Politics, does not think terrorism in the name of Islam will be contained until Muslims reject extremism in the

name of their faith. “Leaders of mainly Muslim countries have to speak out as the rest of the world is doing,” Rahman said using language similar to that used by President Barack Obama in his speech to the country Dec. 6 on the San Bernardino shootings Dec. 2. “You have to speak out against the ideology they follow. Condemnation is a minimum. They have to use force. The United States should pressure them to do that.” Rahman said the terrorist attack Dec. 2 in San Bernardino, Calif., is an example of the leadership failure because it is possible the shooters were radicalized in Saudi Arabia.

Supreme Court Rejects Case Challenging Highland Park Assault Weapon Ban BY STEVE SADIN DAILYNORTHSHORE.COM

H

IGHLAND PARK – An assault weapon ban passed by the City of Highland Park in 2013 and challenged by a local pediatrician will remain intact. The United States Supreme Court decided Dec. 7 not to hear the appeal of Highland Park pediatrician Arie Friedman and the Illinois State Rifle Association challenging the constitutionality of the ban. “We are pleased the Seventh Circuit Decision to uphold the Highland Park rule to take reasonable steps to protect our citizens from dangerous firearms has been preserved,” Highland Park Mayor Nancy

Rotering said. Though Friedman did not return numerous calls from the Daily North Shore nor respond to any of its emails to comment on the case, Richard Pearson, the executive director of the rifle association, said the Supreme Court action was a blip in the road. “We’ll continue the litigation with the next case,” Pearson said. “We’re not quitting,” he added referring to a case in the Illinois state courts challenging a similar law passed by the Cook County Board which was on hold while the Supreme Court was considering the Friedman case. Before the Supreme Court can consider a lower court ruling, four justices have to

agree to hear the appeal. The Highland Park ordinance had its genesis in Illinois’ conceal carry legislation passed in 2013, which gave home rule communities like Highland Park 10 days to ban assault weapons after then Gov. Patrick Quinn signed the new law or lose those rights, according to Rotering. At the time, Highland Park prohibited the ownership of a variety of assault weapons and high capacity magazines, according to Rotering, while other towns along the North Shore took less restricting measures. “We wanted to give the message that our community was going to reflect the values we support,” Rotering said. “We want to provide a stable and safe

community to protect our kids and avoid the grief that comes with mass violence.” Pearson said Highland Park was overreacting at the time and placing restrictions on lawful gun owners. Other North Shore communities took different action in 2013. Deerfield approved an ordinance requiring safe storage of assault weapons while reserving the right to further regulate them in the future, according to statements made by Mayor Harriet Rosenthal at the time. Lake Forest considered a ban but elected not to act, according to local news reports then. The Highland Park law specifically outlaws a number of assault rifles such as AR-15s or AK-47s and otherwise defines

them as semiautomatic guns that could take a magazine of more than 10 bullets, according to an April decision of the United States Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit. Not long after Highland Park passed its ban, the rifle association went looking for a Highland Park resident to mount a legal challenge and found Friedman, according to Pearson. They filed suit. Both Friedman and the city agreed on the facts of the case and asked the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois in Chicago to make a decision, according to Steven Elrod, Highland Park’s city attorney. That court upheld the ban and Friedman appealed.

The crux of appellate court’s ruling said although the Supreme Court upheld the right of citizens to possess guns that are not dangerous, it allowed individual communities to prohibit firearms that it believes are too dangerous. The Seventh Circuit agreed with Highland Park’s arguments about the risk of allowing Friedman’s guns in town. When Friedman filed the case, Elrod went to work trying to save the Highland Park taxpayers the expense of expensive litigation that could wind up in the Supreme Court. “I contacted the Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence and they agreed to defend the case at no expense to the city,” Elrod said.

LFHS Continued from PG 1 The plan was devised by a schedule committee made up of 20 teachers and 10 administrators who have held 20 meetings with students, parents, teachers and staff, according to a presentation Holland made at the board meeting. She said the schedule is not yet set in stone. “The scheduling committee approved this structure for next year’s daily schedule but many details are still evolving,” Holland said. Holland also said the proposed schedule will increase student choice, allow time for collaboration and offer varying times for instructional periods while maintaining the continuity and consistency of instruction. Though the plan is not final yet, Holland and Wilcox said the final schedule will not need approval from either the board or the Lake Forest Education Association teachers’ union. The later start time is a hit with some students. Sophomore Nick Elasser figures he will be fully awake when he gets to school next year. “I’m half awake when I get to

school now,” Elasser told Daily North Shore after school Dec. 3. “I’m usually not fully awake until second period.” Eric Krieg, a sophomore, said added flexibility in the new plan will give him time to talk to teachers, which he said he did not have before. “It’s an opportunity to talk to my teachers without having to make an appointment,” Krieg said after school Dec. 3. Under the current schedule, the day is divided into eight 50minute periods. The proposed timetable will be divided into “Scout days” on Monday, Tuesday and Friday with eight periods lasting for 45 minutes each, according to Holland and Wilcox. Wednesdays and Thursdays will be referred to as “Blue and Gold days” with four 85-minute periods. Students will have half of their normal classes on one of the days and the other half the next. Holland and Wilcox said the length of those periods has not been finalized. Each day will have what has been dubbed an “embedded lunch.” Though each student will have a scheduled lunch rooted in

Neither Holland nor Wilcox said precisely how it works. “The lunch period is more aligned with the amount of time students use to get lunch and eat it,” Holland and Wilcox said in the email to DNS. “Since so many students access our resources and a variety of supports during that time as well, they will now have time already built into the day to do the things they want to do.” She said the embedded lunch will allow students to take an additional course while maintaining a college preparatory load. Student reaction to the lunch change drew mixed reviews. Jake Moll, a sophomore, said it will hamper some of the things he currently does during lunch in addition to consuming a meal. “It gives me a head start on homework if I have something scheduled after school,” Moll said after school Dec. 3 of his current 50-minute lunch. “It’s a good time to study for a test later in the day.” The committee considered maintaining the current schedule and using a modular format,

citizens was never part of the plan, according to Rahman. Muhammed’s wife, Khadijah, was a wealthy business person who asked the Prophet to marry her. “She was the breadwinner,” Rahman said. “She proposed to him. Women have the right to agree to who they marry. This was very revolutionary at the time.” The fight is not only a military one, according to Rahman. She said countries such as Saudi Arabia and the Gulf States need to eliminate the breeding ground for future terrorists. “The governments should close down the (extreme) religious institutions,” Rahman said. “They should close the schools where they are learning Wahhabism. If you don’t they’ll just continue to breed more terrorists.” Rahman said she discounts the faith of ISIS fighters. She has a different name for them. “They are thugs with a criminal background,” Rahman said. “They use religion as a cover to murder. ISIS lets them do it with a higher calling.” Rahman said the solution in Syria has to be a political one with Muslim nations in the region playing a key role and the U.S., France, Russia and other Western countries pushing them in that direction.

I have to say something about [the leadership in the United States]. It is impossible to convey — impossible — the determination, the resolve, how gung ho everybody was after the attack on Pearl Harbor and throughout the war. The response from people in our country was, ‘Don’t ask; we will do what we need to do.’ ” One of Sheahen’s tour of duties was on the east side of Okinawa Island. His ship carried Marines. He was a part of a decoy force, feigning landings. Other stops included Guadalcanal, the Philippine Islands. Sheahen wrote letters, sometimes three or four a week, to his mother and father and siblings (address: Central Avenue, in Highland Park). “My dear mother kept those letters, all of them,” Sheahen said.

“My dear daughter then put them in binders. Reading them, most were trite, dull. I did write a letter about the atomic bomb and how terrible that weapon would be.” That letter was not trite, was not dull. “Reading that leader, I was surprised how I’d written that,” he added. One of the letters he wrote home, while attending the U.S. Naval Academy in Annapolis, Maryland, contained a request ahead of his birthday: “By the way,” he wrote near the end of the letter, “I want a great, big chocolate Angel Food Cake with that rich frosting for my birthday cake.” Retired Lt.

Commander Sassorossi spotted the Chicagoan in the audience and asked her to say a few words at the gathering, after the moving presentations from Sheahen,

Felner, Jerry Adler (Korean War veteran), Steve Skorpad (Viet Nam War veteran) and Sonja Martin (Afghanistan War and Iraq War veteran). Lucid and striking and strong, Madsen stood and said, “My greatest wish was to serve overseas. I thought I could have made my greatest contributions to my country overseas.” Madsen served the U.S. well stateside — at the Pentagon. She ran the Pentagon’s ultra top-secret global encrypted radio telephone and radio teletype conference center. She also was the only female to wear the War Department General Staff insignia on her uniform during World War II. Madsen’s military career started in 1942 and ended in 1971. “We had wonderful Americans out there [during World War II), battling for others and representing our country,” Sheahen said at the end of his presentation. “And we still have wonderful people in the military today.”

thing. Barrel Crossing Tap & Grill is the end result. Not content with just giving it a name change and a slight makeover, Grimes tweaked and changed everything—the interior, the bar, the menu, you name it— while keeping some old favorites in a section called “Crossing Favorites” on the menu—or what he calls the “comfort zone”. (Many of the original recipes were not proprietary, and were actually concocted by Grimes himself.) It’s also gotten a lot craftier on the beer front, while adding flights of bourbon: making this a local hangout spot worthy of a beer, a bourbon, or a hot mess. For the full recipe, please go online to dailynorthshore.com. Barrel Crossing Tap & Grill is located at 260 Green Bay Rd in Highwood. Call 847-748-8695 for reservations.

Barrel Crossing Tap & Grill’s Hot Mess Recipe

Mark Grimes.

Macaroni & Cheese Waffle Batter • 2 cups macaroni, cooked • 3 T butter • ½ cup all purpose flour • 2 ½ cups milk • 2 cups cheese, fontina or cheddar • 1 cup cooked bacon, bits • ½ cup scallions – small slices • 1 each dash Tabasco sauce

1. In a medium sauté pan, heat butter until melted and slowly add flour. With a rubber spatula, stir together to form a roux. Slowly add milk to roux until thick. Now add macaroni, bacon, scallions, and the cheese (very slowly). If you do not add cheese slowly your sauce will become very grainy. Dash a bit of Tabasco. On a lined sheet

pan with parchment paper, sprayed, smooth out macaroni and cheese mixture, dusting just a bit of all-purpose flour on the top. Cool and reserve for cooking. The above steps can be done 2-3 days ahead of time. Cooking Mac & Cheese Waffles Turn waffle iron to medium heat. Sprinkle a touch more flour on mac and cheese mixture, and ball into 2 oz. portions. Spray waffle maker lightly, and carefully press mac and cheese balls into compartments. Cook as per waffle maker instructions. If they start to stick, add a bit more flour to your mac and cheese mixture.

Y

ou bite into an egg roll and think: this is really good. Then you hear the echo of words spoken years ago by a man of wisdom. “People on the North Shore know a good egg roll when they see one.” Whoa. What mental frybasket did that old memory pop out of? You stare into the broken half of your egg roll, and remember a time long ago when you were sent on a secret mission... You were the delivery boy in a Chinese take-out joint. Working in a busy kitchen, answering phones, packing steaming food into brown bags tightly stapled, delivering them, the smell of chop suey always in your little car, even in off hours; good memories. But back to the secret mission. A competing Chinese restaurant had opened nearby. Your boss said, “Go there. Pretend you’re a customer. Bring egg rolls back.” Later, the boss analyzed his rival’s egg roll like a microfilm chip. He inhaled its cabbage and peanut butter filling. Squinted at bits of shrimp, chicken and pork. He took small, educated bites. “This egg roll talks to us,” he said. “We know who supplied its meats and produce. We know the technique of its makers. A lack of freshness tells us their business is slow. Nothing to worry about.” The other restaurant soon became a frozen yogurt store, or maybe a shop that sold baseball caps. No matter. Its future was sealed, not because of a kid on a secret mission, but because a wise man understood: “People on the North Shore know a good egg roll when they see one.”

WATCH THIS KID PLAY New Trier Green’s Graham — fast and furious on the ice — turning into the prototypical forward BY BILL MCLEAN, SPORTS@NORTHSHOREWEEKEND.COM

M

ichael Graham was six years old, sitting in an ice arena with his parents, when he got his first eyeful and earful of a New Trier Green vs. Loyola Gold boys hockey game. The players must have looked gigantic and supersonic fast to him, buildings on blades, maybe even NHL-ready. The sound of bodies bouncing off boards must have reminded him of thunder. The action moved him. “I remember thinking, It would be nice to play for New Trier Green one day,” Graham, all grown up now, recalls. One day is here. Graham, a New Trier Green junior forward and Wilmette resident, stands 6-foot-2 and weighs 180 pounds, strong but not hulking strong. He had scored 20 goals (six on power plays) and delivered 12 assists (two on power plays), through Dec. 6, for a 29-6-1 club that, compared to last winter’s nothingbut-seniors Green crew, is a green Green team. Graham’s favorite player of all time, when he was nine, was Bobby Hull, No. 9 for the Chicago Blackhawks from 1957-72. Graham’s favorite player of all time is still Bobby Hull. “I think I first wore a Bobby Hull jersey on my ninth birthday,” Graham, a New Trier Blue team member last winter, says. “What an incredibly fast player he was, with a great shot. I’d watch YouTube videos of him, a lot of videos.” Three times a week, for nearly two months last summer, Graham and several of his teammates sharpened their skating abilities under Chicago Blackhawks skating and skills development coach Kevin Delaney at American Heartland Ice Arena in Lincolnwood. Graham was interested in edge work, honing his crossover and turns and stops. He got stronger, faster, more efficient on the ice. “His game … it’s relentless, and he’s really competitive,” NT Green junior forward Charlie Burton (18

If I’m not doing homework, I’m either playing hockey or trying to get some extra rest.” Notable: New Trier Green got off to a 20-1-1 start this fall. It lost three straight — to Benet, Providence and Loyola Gold, three quality teams — from Nov. 14-Nov. 21, before winning four straight, the fourth victory a 3-0 defeat of reigning AHAI state champion Glenbrook North on Nov. 29. NT Green junior goaltender Will Douthit stopped 26 shots in the shutout, and senior forward Nico Meyer scored two goals. Junior forward Daniel McNerney tallied the other goal. Assists came from Mason Smith, Jack Raith and John Huber. … New Trier’s top five leaders, in points, through Dec. 6: Charlie Burton (18 goals, 25 assists); Raith (19 goals, 23 assists); Matthew Mulhern (20 goals, 15 assists); Michael Graham (20 goals, 12 assists); and John Huber (11 goals, 17 assists). … Douthit is 14-5 with five shutouts and a save percentage of .902.

GETTING GOOD REVIEWS

Improved Burden proves to be a must-see and go-to player for HP’s girls basketball team BY BILL MCLEAN, SPORTS@NORTHSHOREWEEKEND.COM

K

aci Burden has seen each of The Twilight Saga movies, those romance/fantasy flicks starring Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson, at least 10 times, first in a movie theater, ensuing viewings via DVD. She had read each Twilight book before waiting in line, with friends, for a midnight showing at Northbrook Court. She reread each Twilight book. Want to see Burden, a 5-foot10 senior forward on Highland Park High School’s girls basketball team, swoon? Utter “Edward Cullen.” Pattinson portrayed Cullen in the movies. “I’m obsessed with Edward,” Burden, sporting a time-linewide smile, admits. “He sparkles in the sunlight.” Burden dazzles on basketball courts. A third-year varsity Giant, she made the all-tournament team at the Mundelein Thanksgiving Tournament last month. Burden scored 18 points in consecutive home games: against Round Lake on Nov. 24, against Waukegan on Dec. 1. Her careerhigh point total to date is 26. She is averaging nearly eight rebounds per game in the early going this winter. “She’s a strong player, our strongest player, and she’s aggressive, strong with the ball,” Giants coach Jolie Bechtel says. “At the end of her junior year her game improved a lot, she got more confident, attacked more.” Foul trouble forced her to sit for lengthy chunks in the first half of a 60-34 loss to visiting Maine East on Dec. 4. Burden still emerged as her team’s leading scorer (nine points) and disruptor (team-high three steals) at the other end of the court in the Central Suburban League North opener for both schools. Burden, a righty, used her left hand to dribble-drive and draw a foul in the middle of a lane in the third quarter. She earned another trip to the free-throw line in the

Park’s 2015-16 season ends. She is thinking of majoring in psychology at the University of Arizona. Her parents, Todd and Michelle, are University of Arizona graduates. Michelle was a trackster at Evanston Townships High School. Todd, a native of California, was a cornerback in college. All he did for Arizona’s Wildcats in the rainy 1990 Eagle Aloha Bowl in Hawaii, against Syracuse, was cause a fumble and come down with two interceptions. Syracuse won 28-0. Burden was named Arizona’s Most Valuable Player. “I fell in love with the campus, right away, when I visited it,” Burden, an early-action applicant, says. “I can’t wait to start there. My mom showed me all the spots where she liked to hang out on campus. One was near a fountain. She liked to sit and study near the fountain. We ate lunch there.”

quarter after collecting a pass from junior guard Nicole Berardi, blasting past a pair of Blue Demons and rising for a nifty, smooth reverse-layup attempt. Her final steal led to her final field goal of the game, at 2:53 of the fourth quarter. HP senior Rachel Powers tallied the game’s final bucket nearly two minutes later, the beneficiary of an assist from Burden. “In practices and in games, Kaci is always pushing us, encouraging us, to be the best players we can be,” Giants sophomore guard Kirby Bartelstein

says. “She’s an unbelievable leader. Her [post] moves … awesome. Her drop step is a great move. She works hard to get open in games, and that makes it easier for me to pass the ball to her. “She is,” Bartelstein adds, “fun on and off the court, always bringing a lot of energy wherever she is.” Burden’s first season on varsity, 2013-14, was a bumpy one at times. A sophomore then, in the season following the graduation of the program’s all-time leading scorer (Lena Munzer, now a Yale junior), Burden watched from the

bench a lot and not because of foul trouble. What helped her get through many of the challenges was the steady leadership of the squad’s seniors. Burden observed her elders, paid attention, waited for her opportunities. The Giants, an 18th seed, upset Deerfield High School’s 14thseeded Warriors 56-53 in a Class 4A regional quarterfinal in 2014. “That season was hard for her, frustrating,” Bechtel says. “But she stuck it out, persevered through, and she has turned into a great player for us.” Burden’s basketball inspiration,

for years, has been 6-4 Candace Parker, current Los Angeles WNBA forward and former Naperville Central High School and University of Tennessee star. The three-time Illinois Miss Basketball selectee (2002-04) was the first to dunk a basketball in an NCAA women’s basketball tournament. “I’ve always looked up to her,” Burden, also a lacrosse middie, says. “She’s fast and good, so good, and she knows where she has to be on the court at all times.” Burden’s run in organized basketball will end when Highland

Notable: Highland Park fell behind 9-0 in its 60-34 loss to visiting Maine East on Dec. 4. The Giants (2-6, 0-1 in the CSL North) would get no closer than four points — 9-5, at the 4:21 mark of the first quarter — the rest of the way. HP junior post player Lily Kahn (six points) and sophomore guard Kirby Bartelstein, a tireless, fearless hoopster, tied for team-high honors in rebounds (five). Senior shooting guard Dahlia Cohen scored six points and had two steals, and junior Jenny Goldsher contributed five points, including the team’s lone three-pointer, and four rebounds. Cohen’s driving layup capped a 5-0 run at the end of the second quarter. Maine East’s Blue Demons (5-3, 1-0) used a 12-0 outburst at the start of the second half to take a 52-21 lead. HP outscored Maine East 5-4 in the fourth quarter. … The last four CSL North champions in girls basketball: Niles North (2014-15 season), Maine East (2013-14), Highland Park (2012-13) and Maine West (2011-12).

UNHERALDED BUT NOT UNDERAPPRECIATED Loyola Academy blueliner Darcy putting together a red-letter season BY DAN SHALIN, SPORTS@NORTHSHOREWEEKEND.COM

T

he Loyola Academy girls hockey team features a few returning all-staters and several AAA club players, many of whom are destined for the college ranks. Senior defenseman Clara Darcy doesn’t have gaudy statistics or recruiting letters like some of her teammates do. But the Chicago native provides a steadying influence on the blue line, helps set the tone with her work ethic and, according to teammates, does so without getting enough attention or recognition. “She doesn’t get the credit, but she deserves it,” senior forward Emma Wright said. “(Darcy) is on defense and doesn’t score much, but we’d be lost without her protecting our goalie, taking shots from the point and getting the puck out of our zone. Her energy is never down.” Never one for the limelight, Darcy said she gladly accepts her role on the team. “Usually a more reserved person plays (on defense),” said Darcy, who had no goals and 5 assists in her first 11 games this season. “I like scoring goals, but I’m okay with not scoring. I like helping other people by getting assists. I’m more that kind of person than the one who wants to be a star.” Darcy has been a key contributor for the Ramblers for several seasons, the last two of which ended in one-goal defeats in the state championship game at the United Center. Last March, Latin School of Chicago defeated Loyola 4-3 in the title game. That loss, coupled with the previous year’s 3-2 double-overtime defeat to rival New Trier in the championship, has contributed to the Ramblers’ “One Goal” mentality this time around. “Now we’re like, ‘We want to win; we’re angry now.’ It’s not fun losing two years in a row,” Darcy

even coached alongside Sedam at Wilmette. The Ramblers’ boss said Clara Darcy always has been a calming influence on the ice and in the locker room. He adds that teammates should emulate her work ethic. “She is very solid and steady emotionally. If she makes a mistake, she doesn’t get down. If she does something great, she doesn’t get over-excited,” Sedam said. “Her work ethic is the same on and off the ice. She shows up on time, is friends with everybody. She does her job and goes home, and usually that’s what we need to get a win.” Sedam called Darcy an analytical and intellectual player, characteristics that appear to extend to the classroom. This week, she was waiting to hear if she had been accepted into her Ivy League school of choice. Darcy said she is interested in science, and would consider attending medical school. In college, she also hopes to continue studying Chinese, which she has taken for four years at Loyola. Darcy said she became fascinated in Chinese language and culture after her father, a pilot for American Airlines, began flying to the Far East. She has visited China on a family vacation. Also a member of Loyola’s ‘D’ IS FOR DARCY: Setting up in front of goaltender Tianna Lavalle, Loyola Academy senior blueliner Clara Darcy (No. 25) tracks a shot on crew team, Darcy said she does goal by New Trier’s Amanda Pugliese during action last week.

SPORTS

Scoreboard Watching AT THE SHOOT-AROUND | BASKETBALL Highland Park: Zach Fleisher was on target. The senior forward led all scorers with 19 points in HP’s 59-52 setback to host Niles North on Dec. 4. Fleisher’s accuracy was 100 percent on two-point field goals (6-6), while he connected on 70 percent of his free throws (7-10). Senior guard Ben Sacks also finished in double figures (10 points) for the Giants (1-3, 0-1). Junior Sam Goshen scored seven points, while senior Joey Saslow had six points. Fleisher also led the Giants (1-3) in rebounding: 3 offensive, 4 defensive. Ziv Tal had a team-high two steals. Lake Forest: Senior Lorenzo Edwards had another big night. He popped in 20 points and added six rebounds, but it wasn’t enough as the visiting Scouts came up short against Lake Zurich 40-35 on Dec. 4. Edwards went 10 for 16 from the field. He shot no free throws. In fact, senior forward Ryan Kitchel was the only LF player to go to the foul line. He hit both of his tosses and wound up with six points. He added five rebounds. Junior guard Justin McMahon finished the game with seven points and two steals for the Scouts (2-3, 0-1). Loyola: Maine South and the Ramblers battled to the very end in a Chicago Elite Classic matchup

at the UIC Pavilion on Dec. 4. Maine South ended up taking the game 42-40 on a buzzer-beating shot by Milos Ljiljak. The Ramblers (4-2, 1-0) were paced by freshman point guard Andre White Jr. (13 points, 3 rebounds). Senior Eddie Trapp finished with nine points, while junior Ramar Evans had eight points and three assists. On Dec. 1, LA opened play in the Chicago Catholic League with a definitive 56-32 victory on the road against Providence-St. Evans turned in a strong performance (16 points, 8 rebounds). Three other Ramblers scored in double digits: White (11), Nick Rock (10) and Brandon Danowski (10). Matt Manella finished with eight rebounds. New Trier: Sparked by Colin Winchester, the Trevians got back on track by taking down visiting Maine West 73-50 on Dec. 1. The win snapped a three-game losing streak and upped NT’s overall record to 2-4. Winchester, a senior forward, led the team with 18 points. Freshman Spencer Boehm scored 12 points, while senior point guard Tino Malnati had 10 points.

AT COURTSIDE | GIRLS BASKETBALL Highland Park Sectional: Scoring was a struggle, when the Scouts (2-5, 0-1) travelled to Lake Zurich on Dec. 4 and dropped a 41-18 decision. Junior guard Delaney Williams had eight points

to go along with six steals. Sophomore Maeve Summerville led LF in rebounds (7). On Dec. 1, Summerville came up with 13 points, six rebounds and two blocks in LF’s 61-34 loss to visiting Zion-Benton. Delaney Williams had six points and two assists, while freshman Grace Tirzmalis led the team with 10 rebounds. Lake Forest Academy: The Caxys kept their win streak intact on Dec. 7, when they took care of visiting Willows 52-32. The 8-0 Caxys, who led 40-9 at halfime, used a balanced scoring attack to win the game. Tessy Onwuka led the team with 14 points. Briana Sturkey and Aleeya Sawyer came up with 11 points each. In other action last week, LFA topped visiting Francis Parker 52-19 on Dec. 4. And, on Dec. 1, Onwuka tallied a team-high 14 points as the Caxys topped visiting HRK 55-25.

THE NORTH SHORE WEEKEND

SUNDAY BREAKFAST

3 BARRELS STUDIOS: MORE THAN A TATTOO PARLOR

BY SIMON MURRAY

T

he Highwood Metra train station is going to need a bigger boat. Like a big mechanical fish in a small pond, 3 Barrels Studios, at first glance, doesn’t seem real. First of all, it’s in the train station—not next to it or down the street from it, but IN it— affixed to Highwood’s train station by harpoon gun, luck, and a little elbow grease. (The name is a subtle reference to the three plastic yellow barrels that were supposed to, if not slow it down, then at least keep the leviathan in Jaws from submerging. And we all know how that worked out for the crew of the Orca…) The brainchild of owners Kevin Loesch and Joel Morgan: the space is part superhero HQ, tattoo parlor, evil lair, movie geek menagerie, regular geek hideout and artist collective. To step inside is to let your inner, 12-year-old self go wild. On a recent afternoon a week or so before their grand opening, there are four people inside the brick train station down the street from Walgreens. One is a customer getting a tattoo. The space 3 Barrels owns is around 900 square feet, Loesch tells me, but it appears bigger. (Metra leases the rest of the building to the City of Highwood.) Loesch and I are seated in the main studio, surrounded by everything from manikins wearing a Darth Vader mask and a Guy Fawkes mask with a fedora, super hero artwork (such as an illustration of Mickey Mouse with his face painted like the Joker from Christopher Nolan’s gritty “The Dark Night”), 1980’s wrestling paraphernalia, a fan with Captain Americas shield emblazoned on it, and thousands of other collectables, either encased in glass or fastened to the walls: a deep red. The tattoo parlor is in a separate room; and every so often Morgan’s voice was heard over

the steady buzz of the needle. Morgan, with his long hair, long beard and devilmay-care attitude, is reminiscent of a heavy metal drummer. (He’s actually a bassist in two bands.) By contrast, Loesch is more filmmaker Kevin Smith: all movie geek and comic book nerd, but with a gravelly voice and a little more facial hair. Any comparisons to the duo being an older, more grizzled version of Jay and Silent Bob are not entirely wrong. But they’re more than that. Much more. They’re also the sparkplugs that are responsible for reviving (or entirely creating from scratch) an art scene in Highwood. The million-dollar question is asked: why the name 3 Barrels?

Kevin Loesch and Joel Morgan | Illustration by Barry Blitt

“3 Barrels Studios is my dream come true, my home away from home.” –Kevin Loesch

Loesch chalks it up to a “nerdy obscurity more than anything else” before adding: “I’m a huge Jaws fan.” This year was the 40th anniversary of the film, and Joel had never seen it. Said Loesch, “He’s like: ‘What are you doing tonight?’ I’m going to see Jaws, man. It’s in the theater; I’m super excited about it. He’s like: ‘I don’t think I’ve ever seen it.’” He turned to me, pantomiming a blank stare. “How is that possible?” At that point, Loesch had already sold his friend on the name. It stuck, partly because it

describes all three of their artistic enterprises under one roof: Superhero for Hire, offering photorealistic comic drawing and portraiture; Hydra Electric Tattoo, the North Shore’s first and only licensed tattoo parlor specializing in large-scale traditional tattooing in the American and Japanese styles; and The Midwest Art Initiative (MAI), a group of over 80 Midwest artists that host philanthropic art exhibitions. The fruits of the MAI were on display throughout the space. Founded two years ago by Loesch and Morgan, it has hosted three art exhibitions in 2015 alone, with the final show of the year debuting on Saturday, December 12th at the Humble Pub in Highwood. Past exhibits have included themes as diverse as 1980’s wres-

tling and Abraham Lincoln, (with the proceeds of the latter donated to Citizens United for Research in Epilepsy). Said Loesch, “That’s kind of the direction this group is going in.” “We don’t make a ton of money off [MAI],” he added. “It’s cool for the exposure, it’s cool to get people out, but it’s a side gig for [many of ] us. If we can raise money to help benefit—rather do that.” The MAI is made up of portraitists, filmmakers, “quite a few photographers”, a glassblower, and a number of hobbyists. Such as the North Shore police officer who got in touch with them and sent in a piece for the 80’s wrestling exhibit that now hangs on the wall at 3 Barrels; a lucha libre mask encased in a glass box with the words: “IN CASE OF WRESTLEMANIA, BREAK GLASS.” Loesch and Morgan have been friends since they were teenagers. They met at Denny’s, in Highland Park. “That story’s not fit to print!” yelled Joel over the drone of the needle. They both had always talked about opening up a shop together, but mostly they were just “blowing sunshine at each other,” as Loesch put it. It wasn’t until the City of Highwood kicked off an initiative in July of last year to provide start-up companies an affordable space to establish new businesses—in their case, in an unused, partially abandoned space—when the two pounced on the opportunity. For Loesch, who grew up in Highwood, the studio is a short walk from his home. They plan on adding a skater element to the shop sometime next spring. “3 Barrels Studios is my dream come true, my home away from home,” said Loesch. “When people step in to the Studio we constantly hear how it is their dream bedroom from when they were a kid.”
