She has no favorite class, but she enjoys teaching design classes and mixed-media ones.

“I like the older levels just because I see that spark in some of the students, and it’s fun to watch them grow,” she said. “I see it in the freshmen, too.”

Even after 20 years, she

“Having a place to be accepted and shine is important, especially in high school,” she said.

art class the school offered. She was the only art teacher.

Today, enough classes are offered that a student interested in art can take an art class each semester of high school.

The school has a graduation requirement that ensures students take at least two semesters of a fine arts class, and it’s this restriction that brings many of the students into her class.

Drabik said she likes to see the diversity of students who come through her classes. It’s a mix of artistic, athletic and academic students with varying degrees of confidence in an art studio, but they all produce great work, she said.

“It’s fulfilling when you know you’re helping someone,” she said. “It’s also fun when you see someone who thinks they can’t do something do something great.”

Art class often becomes a haven for students who struggle to excel in other aspects of school, too. She said she enjoys being able to give that opportunity to so many of the students at Montini, and sees the value that a fine arts education offers in oth-

LOMBARD — Wanda Drabik taught her first art classes at Montini Catholic High School in the old convent that formerly housed the nuns who lived on the school’s campus.

Fast-forward 20 years, and Drabik’s classroom is in the school’s main building. It’s a large and bright studio and is home to many of the art classes that Drabik has helped develop.

The room is filled with art supplies and masterpieces-in-progress, and of visitors in her classroom, she kindly requests, “Please pretend it’s clean.”

This year, the 59-year-old art teacher and chairwoman of Montini’s Fine Arts Department is celebrating her 20th anniversary of teaching at the school and reflecting on the curriculum she’s developed during her tenure.

“When I got here, there wasn’t an art program, so I had to bring it upon myself,” she said.

Art was something she always did growing up. Drabik has memories of attending classes at the Art Institute of Chicago with her mother as a little girl. She enrolled at Northern Illinois University planning to study interior design, but later switched to graphic arts, and after a few years of working as a freelance graphic artist in Chicago, she went back to school and became certified to teach.

She came to Montini in 1993, after working at two Catholic elementary schools in surrounding suburbs, and was responsible for teaching every

Bow Wow Playground provides fun, social environment for local pups

By SARAH SMALL ssmall@shawmedia.com VILLA PARK — At work, Joanne Marcotte is the self-described alpha. It’s a crucial role if she’s going to keep the dozens of dogs she cares for in line.

Marcotte, who grew up in Elmhurst and now lives in Lombard, opened her business, Villa Park’s Bow Wow Playground, more than four years ago after spending three decades in retail.

She’d had enough of working in a corporate environment and was looking for the opportunity to run her own business when a friend-of-afriend brought up the topic of doggy daycare.

“I’d never heard of it before,” she said. “It was a whole new idea.”

She ran with it, and now provides boarding and daycare services to dogs. Training and grooming services also are available at the location, 400 W. St. Charles Road, but are done by another business.

The volume of dogs at Bow Wow Playground vary depending on the day, Marcotte said. There’s the set list of dogs she knows will be coming on a specific day, and then

there are usually between five to 10 additional a week as space allows.

Marcotte is helped by a team of employees, scheduling workers and dogs so that there are never more than seven dogs to one person.

“My first priority is for the dogs and my employees to be safe, and then for them to have fun and a good time,” she said.

Last week was Spring Break for many of the local schools, and the Bow Wow Playground was packed with wagging tails and wet noses enjoying their own vacations while the humans were away.

Since she’s started the business, Marcotte said she’s seen a significant rise in the popularity of doggy daycare.

Dog owners who are unwilling to leave their pets home alone for an extended period of time will bring them to a place like the Bow Wow Playground to socialize with other dogs and be cared for during the day.

“People love their dogs,” she said. “For many, they’re their children. A lot of it is socializing.”

The most important thing a dog owner can do is socialize the pup when he or she is young, Marcotte said. This

makes for a happier dog that interacts easily with other dogs and a happier owner who doesn’t have to worry about a dog responding negatively to new people or animals.

Her biggest rule with accepting dogs is that they’re up-to-date on shots. Other than that, she’s flexible. Puppies, elders, big dogs, small dogs and a variety of breeds are represented at Bow Wow Playground.

Marcotte also will take on dogs with special needs.

“It doesn’t really deter us,” she said.

One of the things she enjoys most in her job is seeing how the dogs interact with each other. The dogs who come to Bow Wow Playground know each other, and they’ll look for each other.

Two of the dogs are from the same litter but live with different owners. When they’re together at Bow Wow Playground, they reconnect immediately, she said. The dogs also have their favorite human workers.

“It’s the unconditional love,” Marcotte said of a dog’s companionship. “You can’t beat it. They’re always happy to see you, even if you walk out of the room and come back five seconds later.”

or her marital status and other factors, but for each retiree, the village has to pay a specified amount of money.

In a presentation he made to the Board of Trustees, Sexton ran a model that assumed every eligible employee took the early retirement option, and showed the break-even point for the village — after it had paid out its contribution for each retiring employee — would be 4.4 years.

He also ran a model five years into the future, which indicated that in the few months following the break-even point, the village will have projected savings of nearly $700,000. The savings are expected to continue years into the future, he said.

A few different factors contributed to the village’s decision to offer the incentives, he said.

First, in 2011, a Tier II pension option went into effect, which requires less of a financial commitment from municipalities, Sexton said. Any workers hired with the village now will be eligible for the Tier II pension.

Sexton said another contributing factor was the village’s new contract with its public works union. Under the contract, the starting salary for new hires is $40,000, which is significantly lower that the $46,000 starting salary previously in place.

About half of the employees eligible for early retirement are in the Public Works Department, he said.

He said the village considered offering early retirement a few years ago before the pension and contract changes happened and it didn’t make sense.

Now, it does.

There are 40 employees in the village who are eligible for retirement this year, and about half have formally announced their intent to retire, Sexton said. In all, he expects that about 75 percent of those eligible will retire.

“We suspect that many of them will take it,” he said.

“Probably the vast majority of them will take it.”

As for replacing the retirees, Sexton said that will be done on a case-by-case basis.

Some positions will be immediately replaced, while others might be filled by two part-time workers or contracted out.

Sexton’s savings projections assumed that every position would be filled. If the village decides not to replace every retiree, that will mean additional savings.

“We’ll look at each position as it comes up,” he said.

LOMBARD — March marked the retirement month for three men who made their careers in the public works field: Dave Cilella, Al Jones and Larry Trojanowski. It also marked the beginning of a year-long string of retirements in the village of Lombard, thanks to an early retirement incentive program the village is offering.

The program began March 15 and will continue through March 15, 2014, said Tim Sexton, finance director for the village, and could bring savings of $2.9 million over the next seven years.

Under this early retirement program, employees who have worked with the village of Lombard, or with another municipality that is involved in

the Illinois Municipal Retirement Fund, for a minimum of 20 years and who are at least 50 years old are eligible.

Normally, the retirement age is 55, but the early retirement incentives allow employees to pay a maximum of five years’ worth of contributions at once to the Illinois Municipal Retirement Fund and retire early.

Each year, an employee pays 4.5 percent of his or her salary into the fund, but with the incentive program, a 50-year-old worker with 20 years of service can pay 22.5 percent of his or her salary — the equivalent of five years of payments— and retire, Sexton said.

There also is a cost to the village for allowing its employees to retire early. The amount varies depending on the individual’s years of service, his

Lombard cop car that brought McIlroy to Ryder Cup up for auction Center and, when he realized his mistake, contacted the Lombard Police Department. Rollins drove McIlroy in this 2005 Ford Crown Vic and brought the golfer to the course with only a few minutes before he teed off.

The Europeans later went on to win the tournament.

Rollins’ car, which has 89,900 miles, was scheduled for replacement this year, so the village decided to place it up for auction on eBay, with the idea

of attracting a sports enthusiast to purchase the car for more than its trade-in price.

The car will be sold at auction on Monday. The highest bid, as of 9:30 a.m. Thursday, was $5,100.

LOMBARD — Two students at Glenbard East High School have found metal content in dandelions they picked on the school’s campus, and now they want to know why.

It’s all part of a project Wendi Guraziu and Jourdan Ewoldt are completing through their participation in the Argonne National Laboratory’s Exemplary Student Research Program.

This is the second year Argonne has run the program, and the first that Glenbard East has had a team participating. Guraziu and Ewoldt are being assisted by Karen Beardsley, a biology teacher at the school, along with a staff scientists from Argonne.

Beardsley’s children, Tom and Kelly, are seniors at Wheaton North High School and also work in the group because their school didn’t offer the program.

“We’re doing real research and got to go to Argonne and use the equipment,” said Ewoldt, a senior. “Eventually when we’re done with analyzing the data, we’ll get to present a poster to real scientists.”

In May, the group will visit Argonne to present a scientific poster on their findings.

In the project, students are working in a similar structure to what a scientist does when he or she wants to use the equipment at Argonne. In the fall, the group prepared a proposal and had to get their project approved by Argonne’s oversight committee.

During the review, they were with scientists from France and China.

On Feb. 20, Guraziu, Ewoldt and the Beardsleys took a trip Argonne to spend the day running tests using

the lab’s synchrotron to carry out their project.

For this project, the group used the laser beam technology of the synchrotron to identify the metal content in 26 dandelion samples from around the school’s campus.

The project they developed had a focus on the effect humans have on the environment.

Right now they’re analyzing their data and determining what metals are present in the plant samples from different locations around Glenbard East, and later they’ll analyze the data, look for patterns and develop hypotheses on why certain metals are in certain places, said Guraziu, a junior.

Guraziu’s favorite part about the project?

“Definitely being able to go there and to experience the world-class technology that scientists are using,” she said.

Guraziu and Ewoldt said they were eager to participate in the project because it was a chance to work with the same technology and environment as scientists. Both hope to pursue careers in science. “[Argonne] really wants to encourage young people in the science field,” Karen Beardsley said. “They’re really, really available and enthusiastic at helping us.”

Beardsley said she learned about the program through an email from the DuPage Regional Office of Education and decided to get involved because of the opportunity it would bring for students.

“I go between feeling kind of elated that this is such a great opportunity to overwhelmed,” she said.

“I feel my limit [of experience], but it’s such a great opportunity that I’m OK with it.”

Our events are always free for the children and their families.

SUBURBAN LIFE MEDIA LOMBARD — As part of an ongoing effort to help improve the health, happiness and well-being of community members, the Tri-Town YMCA has made donations to local charity organizations.

A toy box and toys were donated to the Disciples Food Pantry in Villa Park to be used by the children who come with their parents to get food.

While the Tri-Town YMCA’s executive director Joanne Mitrenga was conducting a community health assessment survey, she noticed the children waiting at the food pantry and wanted to find a way to help them.

“You could tell that the children were doing their best to be patient, but it was very hard for them to remain in line with nothing to do,” Mitrenga said.

Information on any items that may have been stolen from the vehicles was unavailable.

Llamas was taken into custody and is being held at the DuPage County Jail.

Since the Tri-Town YMCA received a Pioneering Healthier Communities grant in 2011, the organization has worked with local leaders and organizations to find ways to develop opportunities for healthy living.

Through this project, the YMCA learned that families who are struggling financially often neglect their personal health and fitness.

To help people stay active even when they are struggling, the Tri-Town YMCA also donated fitness equipment to Catholic Charities’ Hope House.

The Hope House is a shelter that provides people with a temporary home and helps residents find jobs and save money for permanent housing.

her constituents favor such habits and voted differently. Statistics prove that distractions violate common sense and warrant an authorized signature — via the coroner.

Cellphones are a technical

Motivated by the national economic downturn and Illinois’ fiscal crisis, the city of Wood Dale and Village of Itasca held a joint meeting on March 16 to discuss collaborative efforts moving into the future. To have a meeting like this, both entities displayed trust and openness among leadCOMMUNITY ership and a willingness to VOICE work together.

The two communities Jeff Mermuys believe it is in their best interests to move faster and farther in finding greater efficiency and reducing the cost of local government, while still ensuring quality service delivery. This meeting was the first step in developing a long-standing partnership between the two organizations.

Moving forward, points of emphasis will focus around starting with smaller and easier to implement programs and moving toward larger programs with higher visibility. To accomplish this, well-defined goals must be established, and each community must process and assess each case individually on its own merit.

When analyzing each case, one most look at threshold of savings, local control issues, grouping like services, sense of urgency and culture of the agency.

Some projects that the two communities have already worked on in the past together were: Rapid Response to Active Shooter Situations, Community Emergency Response Teams (CERT), use of Itasca Undercover Van and the use of Wood Dale “WAVE” Decoy Alarm System. Future joint projects include: Elgin O’Hare Expressway expansion, snow operations, Green Events and joint bidding.

In the coming weeks, a special joint sub-committee will be formed consisting of membership from both communities.

This sub-committee will work on joint projects and then make recommendations to the communities as a whole. The two communities are planning on meeting on a quarterly basis.

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.

Opera troupe’s ‘Savoir Flaire’ to soar on language of love

By ALLISON HORNE msleditorial@shawmedia.com Keeping the classical vocal arts alive and well is key to Elgin Opera, which will present a French-infused homage to the language of love, blending excerpts from the opera “Lakmé” with songs from “Les Miserables” and “South Pacific.” Artistic Director Susan Dennis of Bartlett, who teaches voice at Elmhurst College, leads the troupe. In addition to performances, the company trains singers from across the region.

The organization was founded as Opera Professional Entertainers Repertoire Association (O.P.E.R.A.) in 2001. Dennis, who first became involved when she auditioned for the role of

Adele in “Die Fledermaus,” decided to take it one step further, and began working with founder SolSusan ange Sior. The Dennis name became Elgin Opera, as it underwent the change to a nonprofit.

When Sior, a noted soprano, turned her emphasis to her performance career, Dennis took the reins of artistic director.

For the coming presentation of “Savoir Flaire,” Dennis serves as musical director and will sing the title role in “Lakmé,” an opera by Delibes about a Hindu princess. The concert will feature the opera’s second act.

Dennis also will serve as pianist for the musical theater selections.

“There’s a lot of … people involved (who will) have the solos,” Dennis says.

In building the concert program, members of Elgin Opera’s performing and training ensembles were asked to sing, as well as the winners of its vocal competition held last year.

Dennis also chose to involve local Channing Elementary School students. The children have been learning French after school to be able to take part in “Savoir Flaire.”

“We teach the children (so) they can be doing some songs,” Dennis says. “We’re going to have all the kids participate, so they have an expe-

rience and have the opportunity to do a little musical sort of thing.”

They will join in on three French folk songs and during

the highlights from “South Pacific.”

Dennis is not only a professional singer herself, but also shares her passion for the vocal arts with aspiring students. She teaches vocal lessons and musical theater workshops at Elmhurst and Harper colleges.

“I really enjoy teaching students vocal technique, and the aspects of good singing technique, so when they learn their repertoire, they have a good foundation,” Dennis says, adding she’s excited about the coming concert.

“This is our big show of the year; it’s incorporating both elements — musical theater and opera,” she says.

“We want to expose people to this higher level of vocal music.”

Glenbard East

Montini Coach: Pete Connelly Top returners: Theresa Connelly, sr. (mid. distance, hurdles) Brittany Fisher, jr. (distance) Daria Floyd, sr. (triple jump, sprints) Maggie Hallerud, jr. (distance) Catherine Kitz, sr. (distance) Kelly McNamara, so. (sprints, long jump) What to watch: The Broncos have ambitious goals based on a young group of talented athletes coming up as well as three returners from the 4 x 800-meter relay that took second in Class 3A last year.

“Our goals are to contend for a conference championship, win at least one event at state and contend for a state trophy,” said coach Pete Connelly.

Theresa Connelly, Catherine Kitz and Brittany Fisher are back in the 4 x 800.

The team’s fastest sprinter, according to Connelly, is sophomore Kelly McNamara.

McNamara suffered a concussion in the offseason but is expected back soon. Freshman Gianna Salzbrunn should also contribute right away in sprints and long jump.

Addison Trail Coach: Dave Pytko Top returners: Yulisa Vivero, sr. (sprints) What to watch: The Blazers struggled at the West Suburban Gold indoor meet. Vivero was AT’s only individual athlete to score points. The sprinter will hope to continue her success in the outdoor season.

Willowbrook Coach: Clyde Ware Top returners: Danielle Beamon, jr. (sprints, long jump) Kayla Denwood, so. (mid. distance) Marisa Klaassen, sr. (sprints) Molly Krawczykowski, jr. (sprints, mid. distance) Colleen Krawczykowski, sr. (long jump, sprints, mid. distance) Jada Stills, jr. (shot put) What to watch: Thanks to the Krawczykowski sisters, Colleen and Molly, the Warriors will be a threat in relays. Colleen returns from the 4 x 100- and 4 x 200-meter relays that Willowbrook sent to state last year.

Danielle Beamon and Marisa Klaassen should also contribute to the relays.

Shot putter Jada Stills won the West Suburban Gold indoor meet.

LBS/VPA

Coach: Joe Latala Top athletes: Anitra Davis, jr. (sprints) Stephany Flores, jr. (sprints) Jamie Gradishar, sr. (pole vault) Lindsay Graham, fr. (distance) Angela Kerndl, so. (jumps) Maddie Smith, jr. (jumps) What to watch: Jamie Gradishar is the Rams’ lone individual state qualifier to return this season. The pole vaulter was second in the DuPage Valley Conference indoor meet.

The other individual standout should be freshman Lindsay Graham. After starring for the cross country team and qualifying for state in the fall, Graham capped off the indoor season with a DVC title in the 3,200-meter run. She will be a threat in both the 1,600 and 3,200 throughout the year.

The Rams have some strong relays as well.

Anitra Davis and Stephany Flores will be key runners for the 4 x 100 and 4 x 200 relays.

York Coach: Annette Schulte Top returners: Julia Biegler, jr. (jumps) Shante Dansby, so. (sprints) Emma Fisher, sr. (distance) Josephine Jelinek, so. (sprints) Amy Nosek, jr. (high jump) What to watch: Emma Fisher headlines as York’s top athlete. After finishing second at state cross country in the fall and fifth in the 3,200-meter run last spring, Fisher will be looking to improve upon that this year.

The Dukes’ senior should be a threat in the 3,200 and the 1,600.

Sophomores Shante Dansby and Josephine Jelinek return after competing in the Dukes’ 4 x 400 relay last spring. The Dukes were eighth at state in the event last year.

As for field events, Amy Nosek was a state qualifier in the high jump, and Julia Biegler placed in both the triple jump and the high jump at the West Suburban Silver indoor meet.

BOYS TRACK & FIELD PREVIEW | 2013

By DAN SANTAROMITA dsantaromita@shawmedia.com

Glenbard East Coach: Jack Brady Top returners: Vince Booth jr. (mid. distance) Brad Busching, sr. (distance) Jovan Newsum, sr. (distance) Jack Peters, jr. (mid. distance) Vince Singer, sr. (sprints) Tim Swanson, sr. (distance) What to watch: The Rams will find it hard to compete in the DuPage Valley Conference, but they do have a number of quality athletes.

Jack Peters and Vince Booth are both state hopefuls in the 800.

East’s 4 x 400-meter relay, which qualified for state last year, was second at the DVC indoor meet with a time of 3:32.50. That time is already near the state-qualifying mark, impressive for the indoor season.

Montini Coach: Chris Andriano Top returners: Logan Goss, sr. (sprints) Michael Hollingshed, so. (sprints) Mike Spangler, sr. (sprints) Dimitri Taylor, sr. (sprints) What to watch: The Broncos don’t have a big team in terms of numbers, but their 4 x100- and 4 x 200-meter relays should be very competitive.

Mike Spangler, Logan Goss and Dimitri Taylor return from

the 4 x 100 relay that qualified for state last year. Sophomore Michael Hollingshed is expected to join the relays.

Spangler will anchor both sprint relays and is the Broncos’ best chance for an individual state qualifier.

Addison Trail Coach: Bruce Kelsay Top returners: Joe Atria, sr. (distance) Anthony Guzman, sr. (sprints) Kevin Otte, sr. (distance) Steve Pudelek, sr. (sprints) Trey Smith, jr. (sprints) Javier Valdez, jr. (mid. distance) What to watch: The Blazers have just four seniors on the roster, but all four are key parts of the team.

Joe Atria has the school record in the 1,600-meter run and won the indoor conference title in that event. He is the Blazers’ best chance for an individual state qualifier.

Kevin Otte joined Atria on the West Suburban Gold indoor champion 4 x 800 relay team.

Anthony Guzman and Steve Pudelek are parts of the sprint relay teams.

Juniors Javier Valdez and Trey Smith should also score points regularly for the Blazers.

Valdez won the 600 at indoor conference and Smith has a chance to qualify for state in the 100 and 200.

Glenn Morgan returns to bolster York’s field events.

Willowbrook Coach: T.J. Artman Top returners: Matt Burns, jr. (sprints) Tim Hyde, sr. (distance) Matt McNamara, sr. (throws) Zach Stubbs, sr. (mid. distance) What to watch: After finishing fourth in the West Suburban Gold indoor meet, the Warriors are hoping to crack the top three in the outdoor season.

Matt Burns won an indoor conference title in the 400 and was third in the 200 and high jump and could be the team’s best chance of a state qualifier.

Junior varsity newcomers to watch include Hayden Adams

(triple jump), Jake Bloemke (sprints and jumps) and Dylan Jones (sprints).

York Coach: Stan Reddel Top returners: Alex Bashqawi, jr. (distance) Shawn John, sr. (pole vault) Chris May, sr. (distance) Scott Milling, sr. (distance) Nathan Mroz, jr. (distance) What to watch: As usual, the Dukes are very strong in distance races. Four cross country runners — Alex Bashqawi, Chris May, Scott Milling and Nathan Mroz — will help York be a force in the 800-, 1,600- and 3,200-meter runs.

May, Milling and Mroz were state qualifiers last year.

Milling especially should be a contender in the 3,200.

Sophomore Matt Plowman and senior Jack Achen also return as part of the state-qualifying 4 x 800 relay.

Pole vaulter Shawn John will try to replace state champion Nick Sgarbossa. John was a state qualifier last year as well.

Other field event athletes that showed well at the West Suburban Silver indoor meet were Curt Thieme (pole vault), Reid Smith (high jump), Glenn Morgan (shot put) and Suraj Varghese (triple jump).

Junior pitcher Miller earns second win for Rams

By DAN SANTAROMITA dsantaromita@shawmedia.com LOMBARD — Grace Miller wasn’t slated as Glenbard East’s top pitcher entering the season, but the junior has earned the Rams’ first two wins.

Miller picked up a complete game shutout at Nazareth on Wednesday to carry East to a 6-0 win.

The junior is having little trouble adjusting to varsity softball so far this season.

Upcoming doubleheader Who: Glenbard East at Hinsdale Central When: 10 a.m. Saturday Where: 5500 Grant St., Hinsdale

“It’s not that bad,” Miller said. “It’s like travel when you play at that level so it’s the same.”

Sophomore Kelli Tyler

drove in three runs in the first with a bases-clearing double.

Tyler was 2-for-3 with two doubles and four RBIs. Megan Cotterill and freshman Kailey Lyons each had two hits.

That was more than enough run support to Miller, who struck out six Roadrunners and surrendered just three hits.

“She had good placement and we finally got the bats going,” said East coach Val Pinzker. “We were frustrated because we had people in scor-

ing position and we couldn’t get it done. Things were kind of coming together.”

Cotterill, Kara Tadda and Brittany Plimmer have been the Rams’ top bats early in the season. The senior trio is performing as expected for a Rams team that has six returning seniors.

The Rams got the season started on Saturday by splitting a doubleheader with Downers Grove North. East lost Game 1 3-2 and took the second game 11-8. On Tues-

day, they fell to Lyons Township 4-2.

Thanks to early season cancellations and a string of scheduled road games, the Rams aren’t expected to play their first home until Thursday against Rolling Meadows.

“We’re a little behind where we normally are at this point, but we’re happy with how things are going,” Pinzker said. “We’ve been within winning position in every game that we’ve played so far.”

Upcoming DVC series

BASEBALL Willowbrook Hinsdale South swept the Warriors in the opening West Suburban Gold series for both teams. The Warriors lost 3-0 and 3-1 in Saturday’s doubleheader. Dave Cericola struck out seven batters in four-1/3 innings pitched, but got stuck with the loss in Game 1. In the second game, T.J. Case struck out five over five-2/3 innings and Dom Battaglia had two hits.

Monday and a 4-3 loss at Huntley on Tuesday was not what the Rams had in mind.

On Wednesday, the Rams beat their first opponent from the area with a 6-1 win over Prospect. Troy Huber pitched a complete game and struck out eight Knights. Joe Kotch had two hits and a walk.

The 3-8 start is not what East had envisioned with a senior-heavy and experienced group back from a 22-win squad last spring. However, with conference play right around the corner, the Rams have an opportunity to right the ship.

York comes to Lombard at 4:30 p.m. Friday in the final non-conference game before the Rams open DuPage Valley Conference Matthew Piechalak — mpiechalak@shawmedia.com play against Naperville Central.

LOMBARD — The weather has slowed the start of the baseball season for most teams in the area, but Glenbard East baseball has been busy playing 11 games in the past 13 days.

The Rams are a disappointing 3-8 after spending spring break in Indiana and Kentucky.

On March 27, Downers Grove North beat East 4-0 and that started a five-game losing streak. The Rams lost both games in Evansville, Ind. the next day, falling to Castle 4-0 and Evansville Mater Dei 2-1.

Once the Rams arrived in Louisville, they lost to Pleasant Prairie Ridge 9-0 last Friday. On Saturday, Christian Academy of Louisville beat East 11-1 in the first game before the Rams ended the skid with a 13-1 victory in Game 2.

St. Louis University-bound Nick Vichio limited Christian Academy to one run over six innings and had three strikeouts in the win. Vichio and Yoanny Gonzalez each had three hits.

The results, albeit closer, haven’t been much better since the Rams returned to the Chicago area. A 5-4 loss to Lake Park on

ED • Friday, April 5, 2013 • mysuburbanlife.com • Press Publications

POETRY In honor of National Poetry Month, here are four ways to get started writing poems: This is just a guide to help make sure that you’re happy wih the size and shape of the object on the page.

Write a haiku A haiku is a traditional Japanese form of poetry that consists of three lines and a very strict number of sounds.

Use the guide to have fun drawing out the leaves. Bend the trunk of the tree to give it a nice, flowing appearance. Be sure to study a real tree. See if you can see the “hidden” basic shapes inside the form of the tree.

1. Found poem

2. Favorite words

Look through this newspaper, and pick a sentence or two that you like. First, write down those sentences on a new piece of paper as they are written. Then, write them again in poem form, putting only a few words on each line.

Write down 15 different words on a piece of paper. Cut out each word, mix them up in a hat, then pick them out one at a time. Write them down in poem form in the order you pull them out.

The first line has five sounds.

The second line has seven sounds.

The third line has five sounds.

HERE’S AN EXAMPLE: A little frog comes to see me at the river he croaks and floats on

ANGELS FROM THE ATTIC

4. Use a form From sonnets to cinquains, poets use forms to help them shape their thoughts into a poem. Using a traditional form can help you get used to the natural rhythm and sound of poetry.

PHOTOS BY MORGUEFILE

Keep practicing and having fun!

3. Keep a journal Sit down every day and write in your journal for at least 10 minutes. Write about everything that comes into your head. At the end of the 10 minutes, pick out your favorite phrases and write them into poem form.

On a separate piece of paper, write a haiku about an object, a place or a feeling. On the top line, write the title of the poem.

It should be the name of the object, place or feeling you are writing about. On the first line, write five sounds.

On the second line, write seven sounds. On the third, write five sounds again.

Baird & Warner Donates $50,000 to Chicago Food Pantries, Local Charities in December The Baird & Warner Good Will Network Increases $25,000 to $50,000

CHICAGO, IL – The Baird & Warner Good Will Network donated $50,000 to local charities in December 2012, providing aid to non-profit organizations that assist Chicagoland residents. Of the total $50,000 donation, $25,000 was given to the joint effort between the Greater Chicago Food Depository and the Northern Illinois Food Bank, $10,000 was given to both the CARA Program and La Casa Norte and $5,000 was given to Genesis House.

These charities were selected by the Baird & Warner broker associate advisory board and then voted on by the entire company.

While the original goal was to give away $25,000 to one charity, an outpouring of support led the Baird & Warner Good Will Network to increase its donation to benefit all five organizations.

“We created the Baird & Warner Good Will Network in 2002 to help raise money in the aftermath of September 11. What has kept it going all of these years has been the generous spirit of our broker associates and staff which was demonstrated in the astounding support we received for these worthy charities,” said Jennifer Alter Warden, president

of residential sales at Baird & Warner.

The Baird & Warner Good Will Network seeks to provide relief to local nonprofit organizations, with a focus on shelter and homelessness particularly for families and children. Through the Good Will Network Fund, held at the Chicago Community Trust, Baird & Warner collects donations throughout the year to provide large and small charitable contributions. These contributions, as well as ongoing volunteerism from broker associates, management team and staff, have added up to thousands of volunteer hours and $1.3 million worth of donations to a wide array of local causes.

Mortgage Rates Nudge Higher MCLEAN, VA–(Marketwire - Mar 28, 2013) - Freddie Mac today released the results of its Primary Mortgage Market Survey® (PMMS®), showing average fixed mortgage rates moving slightly higher for the week but still remaining near historic lows. The average 30-year fixed-rate mortgage has remained below 4 percent for over a year providing support to the ongoing housing recovery.

News Facts • 30-year fixed-rate mortgage (FRM) averaged 3.57 percent with an average 0.8 point for the week ending March 28, 2013, up from last week when it averaged 3.54 percent.

Last year at this time, the 30-year FRM averaged 3.99 percent.

• 15-year FRM this week averaged 2.76 percent with an average 0.7 point, up from last week when it averaged 2.72 percent. A year ago at this time, the 15-year FRM averaged 3.23 percent.

• 5-year Treasury-indexed hybrid adjustable-rate mortgage (ARM) averaged 2.68 percent this week with an average 0.6 point, up from last week when it averaged 2.61 percent. A year ago, the 5-year ARM averaged 2.90 percent.

• 1-year Treasury-indexed ARM averaged 2.62 percent this week with an average 0.3 point, down from last week when it averaged 2.63 percent. At this time last year, the 1-year ARM averaged 2.78 percent.

Average commitment rates should be reported along with average fees and points to reflect the total upfront cost of obtaining the mortgage. Visit the following links for the Regional and National Mortgage Rate Details and Definitions.

Borrowers may still pay closing costs which are not included in the survey.

Quotes Attributed to Frank Nothaft, vice president and chief economist, Freddie Mac. “Low and relatively steady mortgage rates are invigorating the housing market. For instance, existing home sales over January and February experienced the strongest two-month pace since November 2009, while new home sales were the strongest since August and September 2008. This strong demand helped push the S&P/Case-Shiller® 20-city home price index (seasonally adjusted) in January to its highest reading since December 2008. Moreover, the number of consumers expecting to purchase a home over the next six months rose to 5.6 percent in March, the second highest share since data was first collected in February 1964, according to The Conference Board.”

Freddie Mac was established by Congress in 1970 to provide liquidity, stability and affordability to the nation’s residential mortgage markets. Freddie Mac supports communities across the nation by providing mortgage capital to lenders. Today Freddie Mac is making home possible for one in four home borrowers and is one of the largest sources of financing for multifamily housing.
