“It won’t improve the safety. It will be more and more dangerous. That’s not what La Grange needs,” Halm said.

Maria Dike said she worries an overpass would cause area property values to decline and might see some resi-

dents actually lose portions of their property to the construction of the overpass. An overpass, “would disconnect the neighborhood from the rest of the town,” she said.

Brown said an overpass would likely attract additional traffic to the area and create more air and noise pollution.

An overpass would elevate 47th Street to carry motor vehicles over the two rail lines.

But the idea of an overpass is not being met with open arms by some La Grange residents who say an overpass would create a physical division of La Grange as well as be a community “eyesore.”

“An overpass would increase traffic and the speed of traffic and create a division within the community,”

LA GRANGE — Safety and preserving the aesthetic nature of La Grange should be paramount in any solution to the problems surrounding the intersection of 47th Street and East Avenue, area residents said recently.

“The primary need for that intersection is safety. Safety for pedestrians, bicyclists and motorists,” La Grange resident Charlie Brown said.

The residents, who formed the 47th Street/East Avenue Community Group on Facebook to share information about possible Illinois Department of Transportation solutions to the intersection, said an overpass would create additional traffic, hamper pedestrian access to two community parks and create a physical division within La Grange.

An overpass spanning the railroad tracks is one possible solution proposed by IDOT to alleviate traffic congestion in the area that has steadily built since the closing of a stretch of Joliet Road in 1998.

The roadway, which remains closed, was closed due to structural issues in the pavement. The busy intersection currently controlled by four stop signs is near two public parks and a freight train crossing. According to the Chicago Region Environmental Transportation and Efficiency Program, about 12,000 cars and 56 freight trains pass through the area daily. The area also sees high pedestrian traffic due to proximity to Waiola Park and Sedgewick Park.

Friends plan fundraiser Sunday for La Grange Highlands man with cancer

By MATTHEW HENDRICKSON mhendrickson@shawmedia.com LA GRANGE HIGHLANDS — Friends of a La Grange Highlands resident will come together on April 7 to enjoy each others’ company, eat good food and raise money for a special person in their life who is undergoing treatment for cancer.

Teddy Kowalski, 69, was diagnosed with Myelodysplastic last year; a rare blood cancer that affects the body’s ability to produce red blood cells and platelets.

Over the last year, Kowalski has gone through about 150 blood transfusions — heading to Adventist La Grange Memorial Hospital three and sometimes four times a week. Kowalski is also getting chemotherapy treatment through the hospital.

“I’ve known Teddy for years and we’ve become very close,” said Anne Bermier, a longtime friend and an organizer of the fundraiser. “We knew we needed to do something to help.”

Friends of Kowalski have booked out Mama Vesuvio’s East, 6361 W. College Drive in Palos Heights, to share food, stories and good times.

On April 7 from 1-5 p.m., all are welcome to attend the benefit, which will feature a D.J. an open buffet and a

Friends of Teddy Kowalski, of La Grange Highlands, will hold a fundraiser April 7 to support his family while Kowalski fights cancer.

cash bar. Tickets to the benefit will cost $35 in advance, or $40 at the door. Advance tickets can be purchased by calling 708-246-8405.

Organizers have also created a number of gift baskets to be raffled off. Tickets for the raffle prizes are generally between $1-2, they said. Gift basket items include certificates to area restaurants, boutiques and spas.

Attendees can also participate in a silent auction to raise funds. Items include a flat screen television.

All funds raised will go directly to the Kowalski fam-

ily to provide financial assistance with his treatment.

“They are very outgoing people who have a wide circle of friends,” said Karen Janus, a friend of Kowalski and his wife, Carol. “He’s always so upbeat, it’s hard to believe he’s going through [treatment].”

Kowalski said he’s remaining positive and fighting hard.

“I’m just grateful,” he said of neighbor’s support. “Even with all the insurance, it doesn’t pay for everything.

I’m alive, and that’s a reason to be positive.”

It’s Your Money

By Linda Sokol Francis, E.A. FILE EARLY TO FOIL IDENTITY THIEVES

Police received a report at about 4:48 p.m. on March 27 that a young male was walking westbound on Cossitt Avenue and carrying a gun, but that it might be a toy. Police located three kids in the area who were playing with toy guns. They were told it was not a good idea to be out playing and walking with them.

Now the Internal Revenue Service says it is aware of the problem and is taking steps designed to detect these fake refunds. These measures may cause all refunds to be slowed this year.

License plates reported stolen

Meanwhile, it’s smart to file your tax return as early as possible, before the thieves do. If you are hacked, your refund may eventually make its way to you, but it will take lots of time and great effort to convince the IRS.

A man walked into the police department around 9:33 a.m. on March 27 to report that the rear license plate had been stolen off his truck. Another man also came into the police department around 12:34 p.m. on March 25 to report that the front license plate of his vehicle had been stolen.

An investigation, led by the Addison Police Department, determined Kainz had cannabis in his system at the time of the crash.

In recent years, any number of scam artists have used stolen Social Security numbers to file fraudulent tax returns, claiming refunds to which they are - of course- not entitled. Only when the victims, the true owners of those identification numbers, file their returns and claim a refund that gets rejected, do they discover that their identities have been stolen. The ruse involves billions of dollars.

Callahan was at the school as part of its Ability Awareness speaker series.

La Grange resident and Fenwick High School senior Mary Kate Callahan used her life story to inspire students recently at St. Francis Xavier School. Callahan’s lawsuit against the Illinois High School Sports Association has paved the way for students with disabilities to compete at the state level along with their teammates. If there’s anyone who can tell a group of students to follow their passion and to never give up, it’s Callahan.

To the editor: With La Grange Park elections approaching, some residents feel that a change in leadership is needed to bring about rapid progress toward economic development and commercial revitalization.

This feeling is inappropriate because it is based on feelings rather than analysis. It is based on a myth.

The expectation is that economic development will result in increased sales tax receipts through increased sales.

The basic sales tax has a 1 percentage point addition that goes directly to the village.

For each additional $100,000 in income we need, $10 million dollars of new taxable sales are needed. We need multiples of that amount! Our sales tax from $10 million of new sales probably would not even cover adding two people to the village payroll (fire, police or public works). It would probably not cover repaving more than a block or two of our backlog of many blocks past due for repaving.

And what about related village costs or inducements?

How many sale does it take to solve our shortages?

New sales of $10 million is equivalent to $2,740 per hour for 10 hours per day, 365 days a year. Is this achievable?

Where? How much new traffic See LETTER, page 12

They say, “Listening is an act of love.”

When we listen to each other, we create a safe space, a connection, trust and respect. This philosophy is at the core of the Teen COMMUNITY Services VOICE Department at Heather Booth Thomas Ford Memorial Library.

We listen when teens ask, sometimes warily, if we can suggest a good book. We love helping connect them with reading that is enjoyable and serves their varied interests: paranormal romances, steampunk epics or page-turning adventures.

We shape our collection by listening to the pulse of local teen reading interests.

We also give them a voice on our board of trustees. Alaina Kafkes, a senior at Lyons Township High School, has served as the teen representative on the board since 2010. We are now seeking a successor as she departs for college.

We also look to trends in teen culture: we connect to teens where they are, whether it’s Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest or our cozy Teen Lounge. We have held programs based on Angry Birds, “The Hunger Games,” Minecraft and memes. On April 19, at our teen openmic night in Café Ford, we will listen as teens show off their many talents in a laid-back, after-hours setting.

We also give teens a voice in our community — and even nationally. This June, we’ll take local teens to the Best Fiction for Young Adults session of the American Library Association Conference in Chicago.

What’s next for teens at the Thomas Ford Library? You tell us! We’ll be listening.

Louise Wimmer, owner of Higgins Glass, puts some artistic touches on a piece of glass that will be fused to create an original handmade piece of art at their studio in Riverside.

See GLASS, page 13

CC • Wednesday, April 3, 2013 • mysuburbanlife.com • Suburban Life*

RIVERSIDE — Louise and Jonathan Wimmer are continuing a tradition that has deep roots in Riverside, and one that continues to branch out in quite a few directions as well.

The mother-and-son team make up Higgins Glass Studio, 33 E. Quincy, in Riverside, entrusted to the Wimmers to carry on the art crafted by their long-time mentors, Fran and Michael Higgins, who began the company in 1948.

The Wimmers design, cut, decorate and create collectible pieces of fused glass. The pieces – from vases, to bowls, to trays and plates, trees and more - have become a modern-day interpretation of an art form that dates back centuries, but came back in popularity in the 1960s.

Each time a bowl, or a plate, or a tree or other work of art is prepared, the two chan-

nel their predecessors, using many of the techniques, the designs (with a bit of tweaking for modern-day touches), glazes and a fair amount of the equipment that the Higgins’ used for decades.

“Two of the original kilns still work and still are used,” said Louise Wimmer, who has worked for Higgins since the mid-1970s. “The molds are still used. They all were made by Fran [Higgins].”

Louise and Jonathan agree that it was Fran’s ideas and Michael’s energy and ingenuity that led these two huge talents to start their work out of their Chicago apartment in 1948.

The process of glass fusing is described by the company’s website as creating a “glass sandwich.” A design is created on one piece of enamel-coated glass; over this, another piece of glass is laid. Placed on a mold, the object is heated,

otherwise disrupts residential traffic and the neighborhood.

A bridge or underpass at the 31st Street tracks would probably destroy all shopping there. If a 3 percent slope is used on the slopes at each side of the tracks, they would probably each occupy at least the equivalent of one long block. What would this do to traffic? How would people access the businesses and their homes?

If a specific workable plan for economic development can be presented, how long would it take to recover from the losses and changes during implementation?

Don’t rush into economic development — it could destroy the village. Demand full analysis before action and vote wisely not for reckless economic development.

“An overpass would also have to be pretty high to safely allow trains with double-decked cars to travel underneath,” he said.

Brown also criticized the financial cost of an overpass.

“It is not cost effective.

It’s illogical to go to such extremes when money is tight.

We certainly don’t want a solution that goes beyond what is needed,” he said.

U.S. Rep. Dan Lipinski has pledged to secure more than $100 million in federal funds for the CREATE projects, according to a 2010 press release.

Seeking community input earlier this year, IDOT formed a community advisory group to talk with residents negatively impacted by the closing of Joliet Road about the best solution to the situation. In addition to a possible overpass, other solutions include installations of traffic signals and designated pedestrian crossing areas. The advisory group held its first meeting in March and will hold another meeting later in the spring. A final decision is not likely to be made until 2015. Halm and Brown were both tapped to be members of the community advisory group.

To share information with other residents not part of the advisory group, Halm and other residents created their Facebook group. Halm said it is important for the community to remain informed since any product

will impact the neighborhood and their way of life.

“We created the group to disseminate information in a timely manner. It is a transparent forum for gathering and submitting information to the residents,” Halm said.

Halm said she is a little concerned that all solutions to intersection issues will not be fully explored before a decision is made.

The residents said any solution adopted by IDOT needs to preserve not only the community aesthetic, but the “pedestrian-friendly nature of La Grange,” Halm said she is hoping the final solution will “keep traffic at a reasonable rate that wouldn’t increase speed and allow pedestrians to cross safely.”

One possibility the residents said they could support is a pedestrian bridge over the road to allow families to safely reach the parks. Halm and Dike said they believe the community would support such a structure as long as it does not detract from the neighborhood aesthetics.

Brown said solutions could also include stop lights, additional sidewalks to prevent individuals from walking on 47 th Street and a designated pedestrian crossing areas, which could include a raised walkway.

“Those kinds of solutions fit into the community… and preserve the unique aspect of the residential area,” he said.

Halm said her group will continue to reach out to state and local leaders, including Lipinski, as well as continue to inform residents about issues concerning the intersection.

where it conforms to the shape of the mold. The design itself is fused between the outer glass pieces, with additional layers often adding to the texture and color complexity.

Over the years their art sold in such major retailers as Marshall Field’s, Georg Jensen and Bullocks Wilshire, the very high-end store in the California-based department store chain.

These pieces have become well-known and popular in antique circles. Some are on display at the Victoria and Albert Museum in London, the Smithsonian, the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City and the Corning Museum of Glass in New York, Jonathan said.

After tenures with other companies, the Higgins decided in 1966 to return to private studio work and set up their offices in Riverside. The website notes that “here they were free to set their own goals, meet their own standards and design in the direction their hearts and minds led them.”

Since that time, all of the pieces created at the store are one-of-a-kind handcrafted works. They are on sale at the studio and online at www. higginsglass.com. The work is still highly respected, shipped far and wide – to Japan, to Barcelona, Spain and Valbonne, in southern France, the Wimmers said. Many also end up around the Riverside area after the studio has its popular annual Christmas decoration sale in early December.

The art is not only collectible, but functional, said Jonathan, who has been with Higgins for 25 years. Some use the small bowls for rings or candy. Trays are used as accent pieces on tables, while others can be used to serve cheese and crackers. But he cautioned that while they are durable, they could scratch.

Mostly now, because they are so collectible, people just “like to collect it and look at it,” Jonathan said.

And the studio still turns out the Higgins’ signature piece, the Rondelay. Rondelays are fused glass circles and squares designed to attach in sections, to be used as room dividers, window treatments and in other décor applications.

Continued from page 11

The colorful circles also have been incorporated into a number of commissions. An 8-foot fusion of the circles was created for the home of the director of the Ella Fitzgerald Charitable Foundation, which is based in Palisades, CA. They even showed up for the Vancouver Winter Olympics in 2010 when 130 6-inch Rondelays were joined together to create a hanging in the entertainment suite of Roots, the Canadian clothing company.

Jonathan recalled that he actually went up to Vancouver to put the piece together. The pieces took six months in all to create. It took Jonathan about nine hours to hang them all.

“Quite an achievement,” said Jonathan, who is friends with the company’s owner.

Another commission will be created for the Roots store opening in Venice, CA. Other commissions are as elaborate. One hangs just a few miles to the north in Oak Park. In 2007, the Wimmers hung an intricate 8-foot-wide and 4-foot-deep mobile in the second-floor art gallery of the Oak Park Public Library. The work took six months to create.

Another commission containing Rondelays will be hung in the Riverside Public Library.

There’s a lot of history in Higgins, and the Wimmers are proud of their work and the company. Jonathan said he had been coming to the shop since he was 2 years old.

Jonathan was like a grandson, as the Higgins never had children, Louise said. They spent all their holidays with them.

She took care of them when they were sick.

“They were family,” Louise said.

With their deaths — Michael died in 1999 and Fran in 2005 — a trust denoted that only the Wimmers would be allowed to use the Higgins name.

Jonathan said he loves the business. It’s in his veins he said.

Are there other members of the family who could continue on the work and carry on the name Higgins Glass Studio?

Louise said perhaps one of her children.

“They gave us the knowledge to carry on the business,” Louise said. “It’s our life – and our love.”

Adventist hires first student from LT’s Vocational Studies program SUBURBAN LIFE MEDIA LA GRANGE — Sam Smetko has a new job, and he loves it.

That’s according to his mother, who said her son has been coming home from work and talking about his co-workers.

“He’s a little more confident,” his mom, Beth, said.

“He’s very proud of himself.

I think it’s been wonderful.”

Sam, 19, works part-time at Adventist La Grange Memorial Hospital as a dishwasher. He was hired by Adventist through Lyons Township High School’s Vocational Studies program, which is coordinated by the school’s Special Education

Department. Sam is the hospital’s first hire through their partnership with LT. “We’re kind of that stepping stone between the high school and the adult world, with the ultimate goal of having our students find work or placement in the community prior to exiting,” said Cara Brown, LT’s vocational and transitional coordinator.

Adventist has worked with the school’s Vocational Studies program for 15 years, according to Brown. Sam initially started working for the hospital as a student in LT’s Transitional Studies program, offered to students between the ages of 18 and 22.

The program is designed to help transition special needs

The results have been positive for the hospital and for Sam. “You can see the drive in Sam,” said Deniece Schott, the hospital’s director of food and nutrition. “He wants to do more.”

His mom agrees: Sam has learned new skills and is more driven.

Restaurant reviews

Melina’s isn’t your ordinary Italian restaurant There are a lot of Italian restaurants in the Chicago area — across the country, really — and it’s easy to assume a sort of chain-restaurant sameness at all of them. Like most people, we enjoy Italian cuisine, but we rarely have an experience that really differentiates a spot from all the others.

Melina’s Trattoria on York Road in Elmhurst does stand out, though. Also a Nancy’s Pizzeria location, Melina’s really stands out when you explore its other dinner entrees.

It doesn’t just offer a standard spaghetti; there’s the Spaghetti Tetrazzini (with chicken and mushrooms in a cream sauce) and the Spaghetti Antonio (with chicken breast and sun-dried tomatoes).

For meatier entrees, there are sections with veal dishes (such as Veal Saltimboca, with prosciutto and fresh mozzarella), chicken (the Pollo alla Vesuvio sounded tempting), fish, steak and pork.

They’ve also got a “create

your own pasta” section on the menu with a choice of 10 kinds of pasta and 13 types of sauces. Combine it with a side of meatballs or sausage, and you can have just about any kind of pasta dish you can think of.

The stuffed artichoke appetizer on the menu looked appetizing to me, but my companion, who almost never passes a chance to order bruschetta, insisted we go that route. My goodness, that was a good call.

The bread was nicely toasted so it wouldn’t get soggy from the olive oil, the tomato chunks were perfectly ripe, and the cheese was perfectly proportioned. We agreed it was the best bruschetta we’d ever had.

I chose the Rigatoni Boscaiola for my meal. It was a generous portion, with a terrific blush cream sauce, mushrooms and sausage.

What a great combination of flavors. I found that I wanted to get a rigatoni noodle, a mushroom and a chunk of

Berwyn restaurateur named finalist in ‘Check, Please!’ host hunt

By RENEE TOMELL rtomell@shawmedia.com Cristiane Pereira of Berwyn has dreamed of seeing her Taste of Brasil Café featured on “Check, Please!” on PBS television’s WTTW in Chicago, but never imagined herself in the host’s chair.

Now she is one of 17 finalists vying for the spot long held by Alpana Singh, who departed to devote herself to her newly opened River North restaurant The Boarding House.

The intense vetting process next will have Pereira and three mock guests do a test episode for producers, whose final decision will be influenced by a fan vote component. People can cast votes until 11:59 p.m. Wednesday, April 17, with only one vote per IP address permitted.

Visit checkplease.wttw.com/

checkpleasehost to view the submission videos of each finalist, culled from the original group of hundreds created by people hungry for that coveted chair.

When producers asked, “Why are you the best host?”

Pereira responded, in part: “I built my business with a lot of hard work physically and mentally. But what always really stood out and kept on bringing people in is my personality and affinity to connect with people around me.”

Brazilian by birth, Pereira came to the U.S. with husband Andre Otero a decade ago, and has been a longtime fan of “Check, Please!” After gaining culinary experience with a wide range of cuisines, she became chef-owner of her Oak Park restaurant three years ago, shortly before the birth of their daughter, Bianca.

“We’ve been growing slowing, but consistently,” she says of the eatery, adding the focus is on providing great food and wonderful customer service. “I want them to feel at home.”

To that end, she prepares an array of Brazilian favorites, including the country’s national dish: feijoada, a black bean stew prepared with pork and smoked sausage, available daily at lunch and dinner.

“It’s very flavorful,” she says. “We cook with a lot of seasoning. It comes with three different sides: lightly sautéed collard greens with garlic; Brazilian white rice; and seasoned yucca flour called farofa. Our most popular desserts are Brazilian chocolate cake and passion fruit mousse.”

They are adding staff to

move from a fast-casual concept to full service for patrons dining in. She says people are welcome to bring their own wine, with no corkage fee charged.

“When we bought it, it was a coffee house,” says Pereira, currently enrolled in a catering management class at Triton College. “People were used to grabbing just coffee.

We still have it to go.”

The new “Check, Please!” host will be announced May 1. Regardless of the outcome, fans of Taste of Brasil are reassured by Pereira that she has no plans to give up her beloved café.

“This is a very exciting moment for me,” she says in the midst of preparing for the next audition hurdle. “And I’m really glad that Berwyn had a spot for us to live. I love the neighbors.”

didn’t seem to miss a beat.

“I think that we were pretty well prepared to be honest,” Ryckman said. “Obviously we’re going to improve as the season goes on, but I think this is a good starting point.”

Both Ryckman and Koziol will be essential parts for LT’s push to improve on last year’s 4-8 conference record.

After another week of non-conference games, the Lions will open up West Suburban Silver play against Downers Grove North, one of the stronger teams in the league even after a knee injury to pitcher Dale Ryndak that will likely keep her out of action against LT. “Our top team I think right now to beat is DGN,” Koziol said. “I’m actually really excited to start conference.”

Following Tuesday’s game against Glenbard East, the Lions have four more games scheduled before visiting the Trojans on Wednesday, April 10.

“We saw a lot of different things and it was the first time we’ve ever even been on a field,” said LT coach Dawn Schabacker. “I didn’t know what was going to happen with the field and the players being on dirt for the first time, but they really did a nice job.”

LSL

WESTERN SPRINGS — After teaming up with her sister, Alyssa, the past two years, Lyons Township junior Ashley Koziol has the role of team ace all to herself.

The younger Koziol started off LT’s season with a strong pitching performance in a 6-1 win over RivAshley erside BrookKoziol field on Saturday at home.

She struck out nine in the complete-game effort.

With Alyssa now pitching for St. Ambrose University, Ashley has the opportunity to best her older sister’s numbers.

“There’s always that competition,” Koziol said. “Me and my sister have been competing since we were little and I’m definitely trying to beat her from last year.”

Ashley gained plenty of varsity experience the last two years and was forced into the No. 1 pitcher slot after Alyssa picked up an injury last spring. Still, having the pressure of being LT’s top pitcher is something new.

“It definitely puts a lot on my shoulders and I think carrying the team is going to be a challenge, but I’ll get through it,” Koziol said.

LT swept RB with a 7-6 win in Game 2 while senior Becky Ryckman started in the circle.

The Lions barely got outside during a month of practices before Saturday’s doubleheader. RB had already played five games, but LT

Coach: Greg Frandsen Top returners: Madeline Bernstein, so., (800) Emma Haugen, so., (jumps, hurdles) Makayla Hubbard, sr., (throws) Sarah Kreikemeier, sr., (sprints) Laura Krivicich, sr., (throws) Lexy Rudofski, jr., (distance) What to watch: After sending 17 entries to the state meet and placing in the top 20 of the team standings, the Lions have a tough act to follow this year. But much of the talent is back.

Sophomore Emma Haugen was the high jump state champion as a freshman. She qualified in all three jumps and the 100-meter high hurdles. She will score plenty of points for the Lions again this year.

Five other state returners are back, not to mention three out of the four runners that competed in the 4 x 800 state finals. Senior Randie Speir and juniors Kate Heinz and Amy Bazzoni will hope to improve enough to replace the loss of all-stater Lisa Gordon.

Sarah Kreikemeier is another athlete to watch. The senior qualified in the 100 last year and won the 400 at the West Suburban Silver indoor meet to show her range as a sprinter.

Riverside Brookfield Coach: Bob Bensfield Top returners: Clare Bollnow, jr., (distance) Janae Dabney, so., (long jump, sprints) Jackie LaBelle, so., (pole vault, sprints) Danielle Witken, sr., (sprints, long jump) What to watch: The young Bulldogs have just three seniors and five juniors on the roster and struggled at the Metro Suburban Conference indoor meet, placing seventh out of seven teams.

The future may be looking up though as RB has more numbers at the lower levels.

Among the younger athletes, Janae Dabney and Jackie LaBelle should contribute while senior Danielle Witken was one of the top athletes last year.

Clare Bollnow was the Bulldogs’ top cross country runner in the fall. Bollnow won a regional title and qualified for state.

Fenwick Coach: Dale Heidloff Top returners: Megan Cahill, sr., (800) Briana Daley, jr., (distance) Sarah Pezza, sr,. (sprints) Olivia Ryan, so., (distance) Becky Steinmeyer, sr., (distance) What to watch: The Friars will again be strong in the distance runs. Olivia Ryan and Briana Daley both placed in the top 10 at the 3,200 and qualified in the 1,600 at state last year.

Freshman Grace Cronin is in line for a strong debut after a fifthplace showing in the 400 at the Mt. Assisi Fast Times Invitational on March 23. Cronin even outpaced returning state-qualifier Sarah Pezza.

St. Joseph Coach: Kristin Kalal Top returners:

Taylor Hesslau, sr., (hurdles) Melissa Hollingshed, sr., (long jump, sprints) Shaya Minter sr. (sprints) What to watch: The Lady Chargers held their own at the GCAC indoor meet, placing seventh out of 11 teams against mostly larger schools.

Melissa Hollingshed was second in the long jump and contributed to relays as well.

Hollingshead, along with fellow seniors Taylor Hesslau and Shaya Minter, will be state hopefuls.

Proviso West Coach: Mike Brazier Top returners: Emani Johnson, jr., (sprints, long jump) Jabria Stainback, sr., (jumps, sprints) What to watch: Emani Johnson and Jabria Stainback both return from the Panthers’ 4 x 100 and 4 x 200 relays that made it to state.

Stainback also qualified in the triple jump, but she also has a shot to make it in the high jump this spring.

She won the West Suburban Silver

indoor title in the triple jump and was second to defending state champ Emma Haugen of Lyons Township in the high jump.

Johnson claimed indoor conference titles in the 55, 200 and the long jump.

BOYS TRACK & FIELD PREVIEW | 2013 Lyons Township Coach: Mike Tanner Top returners: Matt Harris, sr., (sprints, hurdles, long jump) Alex Lima, so., (800) Jimmy Mitchell, sr., (discus) Lino Mogorovic, sr., (sprints, hurdles) What to watch: After finishing second in the long jump at state last year, Matt Harris will be hoping to improve on that result. The football star also qualified for state in the 110-meter high hurdles and competed with the 4 x 100 relay that brings back all four runners.

One of those relay returners, Lino Mogorovic, is also a returning individual state qualifier.

Juniors Giovanni Young and Quentin Sanchez could team with the senior pair to make one of the best relays in the state.

Alex Lima and Jimmy Mitchell are also state returners.

Sprinters Matt Grider, Antwan Swan and Jimmy Rhode medaled at the West Suburban Silver indoor meet and should also score plenty of points for the Lions, which open the outdoor season at the Hinsdale Central Relays on Saturday.

Andrew Bell are also back from the state-qualifying 4 x 400 relay.

Jack VandeMerkt won an indoor title in the Metro Suburban Conference in the high jump. Junior Dan Curtin and senior David Swon will also be pushing for conference titles and state-qualifying berths.

Riverside Brookfield Coach: Tim Olson Top returners: Dan Curtin, jr., (800) Marvin McKenzie, so., (sprints) David Swon, sr., (jumps) Jack VandeMerkt, jr., (high jump) What to watch: Marvin McKenzie got a taste of state after competing in the 400-meter dash and the 4 x 400 relay as a freshman. With another year under his belt, bigger things will be expected. He won an indoor conference title in the 55-meter dash.

Junior Lewis Rogers and senior

Nazareth Coach: Casey Moran Top returners: Zachery Manual, sr., (long jump) Cody Roll, jr., (hurdles) What to watch: Zachery Manual is the lone state qualifying returner for the Roadrunners. Cody Roll is also a name to watch after a strong indoor season.

St. Joseph The Chargers opened the season with a 5-2 win over Proviso West on Thursday.

Ryan Moritz earned the win on the mound with nine strikeouts over four innings.

Luke Daughenbaugh had two hits in the Chargers’ 6-2 win over Ridgewood on Saturday.

Proviso West After losing to St. Joseph 5-2 on Thursday, the Panthers went right into conference play with a doubleheader at Hinsdale Central. The Red Devils got the sweep, winning 14-0 and 20-2.

“There’s definitely some pressure,” said junior Sam Cybulski. “Every team is going to

“We’re playing OK baseball,” said LT coach George Ushela. “We’re not playing bad baseball. We’re kind of getting the feel of things.”

Ushela complimented the pitching staff’s ability to get out of jams so far and the strong play of the defense. However, he still is concerned the team is sloppy in a few facets.

Last regular season, the Lions entered the season with high expectations as defending state champions, but were inconsistent in the regular season before getting hot in time

for the playoffs. Ushela is hoping any early season issues are due to the lack of outdoor practices before these early season games.

“Everything has been inside, but our defense has been good,” Ushela said. “It’s still early to tell. We’re a work in progress.”

On Wednesday, LT will host Lincoln-Way North, another one of the top-ranked teams in the state. The Lions then will open West Suburban Silver play with a three-game series against Downers Grove North.

SOFTBALL Fenwick The Friars won their first three games of the season before losing to Mother McAuley on Saturday. Jenna Cairo hit a home run in Fenwick’s 19-0 win over St. Joseph in five innings March 26.

The next day it took extra innings for the Friars to beat Riverside Brookfield, but a five-run eighth inning opened the game in a 5-0 win. Ashley Parenti was 4-for-5 and Jess Mrozek gave up just three hits over the eight innings.

On Thursday, the Friars romped Prosser 18-0 in five innings.

McAuley ended Fenwick’s winning streak with an 11-2 decision. The Friars led 3-2 going into the bottom of the sixth inning, but the pitching and defense fell apart that inning.

Nazareth After losing to Downers Grove North 5-0 on March 26, the Roadrunners got back on track with a 14-1, five-inning demolition of Riverside Brookfield.

Karah Ritacco was 3-for-4 with three runs scored, and Lindsay Zasadzinski went 2-for-3 with a triple. The 4-1 Roadrunners host Glenbard East on Wednesday.

After that, Nazareth traveled to Kentucky for a spring break trip.

They beat Butler 6-0 in Louisville.

Jake Bartels and Joe Nelson combined for a three-hit shutout.

The Roadrunners swept a doubleheader against Holy Cross, 3-0 and 8-0. Peter Minella picked up the win in Game 1 and Mike Kogut struck out 10 batters over five innings in Game 2.

Cybulski was one of the offensive standouts in Saturday’s 7-0 win over Addison Trail.

Cybulski and Keith Lehmann both went 2-for-4 with two RBIs against the Blazers. Tom Prescott fired a shutout on the mound.

Lehmann picked up a complete-game victory against Naperville Central on Thursday.

The Lions won 4-3, and Lehmann struck out 10 Redhawks.

“Since its debut in the late 1930s, acrylic furniture has captivated the public imagination.”

rachel delphia, associate curator of decorative arts and design at the carnegie Museum of Art in Pittsburgh

Spring cleaning tips: n Assign a leader and have each member of your family say what area of the house they feel they can tackle best, ensuring everyone is comfortable and able to quickly and effectively clean their section. n Take your family cleaning crew on a quick walk-through of the home and identify areas that need the most attention. This will allow you to give your crew the right set of supplies and allot them the proper amount of time to get the job done. Add an extra hour to normal cleaning times for each area, since this is a deep clean. n Once you have tackled your spring cleaning list, take a final walk-through to make sure you covered every nook and cranny. Hidden dust and tarnish can be hard to spot the first time around so make sure to take a cleaner with you for a quick and efficient lastminute cleanup.

— Brandpoint GArden Guide

Pergolas, arches and arbors Pergolas and arches have long been used in garden design to provide strong vertical elements.

Their purpose has been twofold: to frame views and openings, and to provide shade over areas set aside for entertaining and relaxation.

The original pergola constructions can be traced back to ancient egyptian times, when overhead structures were used as a support for grapes, which provided areas of shade.

From here, their use spread to more temperate climates, where their function became more ornamental.

Today, arbors may be viewed primarily as a focal point. Often enclosed on three sides, they tend to be smaller than pergolas and are usually set in a cool corner of the garden.

Originally, arbors were shady tunnels formed by training trees, such as linden and sycamore, to grow over a framework of metal arches.

Arbors were also developed as secluded outdoor rooms, shaded places often enclosed by intricate trellis work.

This is more in line with their function today, where trees, climbers and shrubs are trained over wooden archways and trellises to form a secluded haven.

Clear inspiration Plastic has shaped modern furniture

By Patricia Sheridan Scripps Howard news Service

Transparency may be in short supply in Washington, D.C., but in the furniture and fashion worlds it has been a clear winner for more than 75 years.

Plastics such as Plexiglas, resin, Lucite and acrylic have seen through decades of trends and look as new today as ever.

“Since its debut in the late 1930s, acrylic furniture has captivated the public imagination,” says Rachel Delphia, associate curator of decorative arts and design at the Carnegie Museum of Art in Pittsburgh. Cosmetics mogul Helena Rubinstein was one of the first to commission furniture made of the clear hard substance. The Carnegie Museum has one of the first transparent chairs made by Rohm & Haas for Rubinstein.

“The chair was designed by Rubinstein company designer Ladislas Medgyesis and is fascinatingly modern and traditional,” she adds.

That marked the beginning of Hollywood Regency, a style that embraced the glamour of modern materials. But it wasn’t until the ‘60s that Lucite and acrylic became strong components of contemporary home decor.

The most recent incarnation of plastic with a sense of place came in 1992 when Italian furniture manufacturer Kartell introduced the Louis Ghost Chair by designer Philippe Starck. It was an instant hit, spawning many imitators, including Zuo Modern (at a lower price point).

The idea of taking an antique

silhouette and doing a molded plastic chair was the perfect marriage of classic and contemporary.

Going for Baroque, Kartell came out with the Bourgie transparent lamp, another in-

stant winner. To celebrate the 10th anniversary of the Ghost chair, Kartell made a limited edition with Starck’s signature.

Over the next 10 years, the company also introduced color and images to its acrylic collection.

Along with infusing color for contrast, today’s manufacturers are also encasing Mother Nature’s most accommodating material — wood — in resin or acrylic, a message in a bottle, if you will. Are we encapsulating the planet in plastic or preserving nature’s beauty for eons?

If you like the see-through look but prefer a more recyclable material, there is always glass. Theodore Alexander did a glass seat on its Regency-style Floating Klismos chair, while Mitchell Gold + Bob Williams used glass and nothing else for its Claro curved cocktail table and nesting tables.

Pictures accompanying this story are of items displayed at the winter World Market in Las Vegas, except for the crystal side table of clear lucite by Mariette Himes Gomez for Hickory Chair.
