Lombard President Keith Giagnorio, balling up the speech he had prepared, said he was “beyond furious” two days ago when he heard this was an issue. “One of my biggest duties as village president is to uphold our traditions – our values,” Giagnorio said. “This court was selected over a month ago. It’s two days until the coronation. I can’t help think what Morgan Fugiel is thinking. “We ran this past our attorney. This is no time to change the rules or set a policy to punish someone who devoted. … I don’t know how many hours it must take to be a princess.” In the future, the board may want to consider a policy to address conflict issues, but changing the tradition to sully the hard work of this year’s princesses is wrong, Giagnorio said. “Talk about putting a damper on Lilac Time,” Giagnorio said. “There is no way this scholarship [check] should not be cut and given to Princess Fugiel.” Lilac Princess Kendall Kott was named the 2014 Lilac Queen on Saturday in Lilacia Park. The event has been an annual tradition in Lombard since 1930.

LOMBARD – The spirit and tradition of Lilac Time trumped the letter of the law during a recent Lombard Village Board meeting, as a $1,000 college scholarship was awarded to Lilac Princess Morgan Fugiel – the daughter of Lombard Trustee Mike Fugiel (District 2). The measure, placed on the May 1 agenda as a separate item in the interest of transparency, was approved 4-2. Trustees Peter Breen (District 4) and Laura Fitzpatrick (District 5) voted against approval, and Fugiel abstained from the vote. Per the annual, time-honored tradition in Lombard, the five princesses that make up the Lilac Court are each awarded a $1,000 college scholarship courtesy of the Lombard Junior Women’s Club, who began sponsoring the Lilac Princess Program in 2001. The other four scholarships were unan-
imously approved during the meeting’s consent agenda. The issue is not about the princess program, but rather a taxing body issuing a cash prize to the family member of an elected official, Breen said, calling the matter a conflict of interest. “The members of this board did not invite this conflict and if somehow Miss Fugiel was assured she would be given a check by the Village Board, surely it was not right to make that assurance,” Breen said. Fitzpatrick, referencing a past conflict that involved her son’s employer potentially purchasing land adjacent to village property, said granting the scholarship would be morally wrong. “We are on a board not for the benefit of ourselves,” Fitzpatrick said. “I must always go back to the practices of good government.” Lombard Junior Women’s Club President Penny Chanez spoke during public comment, Bill Ackerman - backerman@shawmedia.com urging the board to approve the scholarship.

Lombard takes step toward lifting video gaming ban By MATTHEW PIECHALAK mpiechalak@shawmedia.com LOMBARD – Lombard may be the latest municipality in DuPage County to usher in video gambling at local liquor establishments after a motion was approved to direct village staff to draft an ordinance repealing the existing ban. Lombard Village President Keith Giagnorio broke a 3-3 stalemate during a May 1 Village Board meeting, casting a vote in favor of the motion. Trustees Bill Ware (District 6), Mike Fugiel (District 2) and Reid Foltyniewicz (District 3) also supported the motion, while trustees Peter Breen (District 4), Laura Fitzpatrick (District 5) and Dan Whittington (District 1) voted against it.

Municipalities were left with the option to ban gaming locally, a move Lombard chose to pursue in 2010. Towns that approve and apply for video gambling have to abide by local and state requirements, including background checks on business owners and a limit of five terminals per establishment. There are 62 businesses in Lombard that would be eligible for gaming terminals, Lombard Village Manager Scott Niehaus said. The revenue

Piechalak: Describe that initial feeling when your name was called during the coronation. Kott: My heart skipped a beat. I was immediately excited and overwhelmed with happiness. I couldn’t stop smiling. Piechalak: Why did you originally decide to run for the 2014 Lilac Court? Kott: I wanted all of my hard work and dedication through the past couple years to be made an example of. I know that the princesses stand as role models to the community, and I wanted to fulfill that
Piechalak: Describe what it means to win the crown two years after your sister competed? Kott: It’s such a cool experience. I remember how happy I was for my sister and the excited feeling I had when I found out she was selected like it was just yesterday. I was so proud of her. To be able to follow after her secures my assurance that my family has good values and that we all enjoy helping others, which I believe is so important. Piechalak: What advice did she give you about the event? Kott: She taught me how to always be professional and to be calm and collected. She calmed my nerves a lot for the first interview. I can’t thank her enough. Piechalak: What are you looking forward to most about your duties? Kott: I’m most looking forward to the entire year. I’m honored to be in this position where little girls look up to me, just like I looked up to the princesses when I was younger. I always thought they were so pretty. I hope I can provide that image for girls and just show how Lombard is such a supportive and successful community. I think I’m most excited to see that progress and see what opportunities and challenges the year unfolds to me.

LOMBARD – Glenbard East senior Kendall Kott was crowned the 84th Lilac Queen on Saturday during a coronation ceremony at Lilacia Park, 150 S. Park Ave. Kott, 17, was the second member of her family to vie for the crown after her older sister, Kelsie, was a Lilac princess in 2012. Kott, who will attend Millikin University for choral music education this fall, took a few minutes earlier in the week to talk to Suburban Life reporter Matt Piechalak about her time as a princess and her excitement over being named the Lilac Queen in her hometown.

LOMBARD – Thousands of pages of documents released April 30 by a Chicago law firm detail decades of sexual abuse by DuPage County priests and the protection they allegedly received from the Diocese of Joliet. The files of 16 priests accused of abuse, long held confidential by the diocese, were obtained and released by Jeff Anderson and Associates to coincide with five new lawsuits filed by the firm against four offenders. The priests named in the documents include six who worked in Lombard, as well as others who worked in Downers Grove, Elmhurst, Glen Ellyn, Wheaton, Woodridge, Westmont, Carol Stream and Itasca even after accusations of prior abuse. The documents show a pattern of secrecy from Joliet diocese bishops, who regularly failed to remove or report priests accused of child sexual abuse, instead moving them to new parishes where they would often repeat the behavior. The suits brought by the firm seek an unspecified settlement for damages suffered by victims in the ‘60s, ‘70s and early ‘80s. They also seek a court order that “(stops) practices that imperil children and requires them to come clean and publicly disclose files of all (priests accused of abuse),” Anderson said May 1. The recently released files are a portion of 34 sought by the firm, he said. “We’re working very hard with the survivors to reveal the past so it’s not repeated,” Anderson said. “The diocese and the bishops have a long history of concealing the past and their role in the crimes committed by the clerics. “It’s classic tension between those who want to reveal the painful truth and those who want to hide it.” Diocese spokesman Ed Flavin said that, in accordance with common business practice, the diocese does not release
confidential files of employees, and the 16 files turned over to the firm were done so under court order. “We do, however, share any and all information which is relevant to an ongoing investigation with law enforcement or as instructed to do so by the court,” Flavin said. “We make available any and all credible allegations of priests on our website.” The priests cited in the lawsuit are Rev. Leonardo Mateo, Rev. Lee Ryan, Rev. Lowell Fischer and Rev. Frederick Lenczyzki. Mateo and Fischer are deceased, according to the firm. Ryan was temporarily removed from service in 2010 after allegations surfaced of a relationship with an underage boy in the 1970s. He was reinstated in 2012 for a short period before the diocese reversed its decision. Lenczyzki was removed from ministry in 2002 and convicted of sexual abuse in 2004. In a statement, the Diocese of Joliet said it had not yet been served with the five lawsuits filed in Will County, and would “respond in an appropriate forum” once it reviewed the specifics of the pleadings. “Anyone who may have been sexually abused as a minor by a member of the clergy, employee or volunteer of the diocese is urged to report the abuse to civil authorities and to the diocese,” the statement read. “Reports may be made to any pastor or by contacting the diocese’s Director for the Office of Child and Youth Protection at 815-221-6116. “Dealing with the tragic history of child abuse is part of the Church’s ministry today. The people of the Diocese of Joliet pray every day for those who have been abused and for those responsible for it. They ask the Lord for healing for all His people who suffer for what has happened in their midst. With God’s help, the diocese will continue to do its best to assure the safety of its children.” To view the documents, visit www.abusedinchicago.com.

HOW DO YOUR GLASSES MEASURE UP? To ensure that your eyeglasses will fit correctly, it is necessary to take four measurements (all in millimeters) into account. The first, eye size, refers to the horizontal width of one of the lenses. Next, the bridge measurement tells the distance between the two lenses. Then, there is the temple length, which tells how long the temple is from one end to the other (including the bend). Finally, the B measurement refers to the vertical height of the lens, but it is only important when making mulitfocal (bi-focal, tri-focal, and progressive) lenses. Most eyeglasses have the eye, bridge, and temple information posted as three numbers (for instance, 50-17-135) on the inside of the frame. We communicate with our eyes, and that is why frame styles matter. Your glasses are the immediate accessory that everyone sees. Today, many people view their glasses as they do their jewelry. Would you always wear the same necklace with all of your different clothes? It is clear that style matters, and SKOWRON EYE CARE has a reputation for providing cuttingedge technology in lens design and frame styles. At Skowron Eye Care, our mission is your vision. P.S. In addition to the eye, bridge, and temple measurements, it is necessary to know the total frame width, which includes the end pieces (the width of the frame from the edge of the lens out to the edge of the frame, where the temples are connected to the frame front).

Americans deserve an Obamacare watchdog In a recent victory lap, President Obama announced that more than 8 million Americans have signed up for Obamacare and so in his view, “the repeal debate is and should be over. The Affordable Care Act is working.” But there are significant problems with the president’s assertions. The American people remain deeply unhappy about a law that has increased out-of-pocket healthcare costs for millions and taken away their choices. A recent Congressional investigation revealed that only 67 percent of individuals and families that selected a healthcare plan from the federal marketplace have paid their first month’s premium VIEWS – laying waste to the 8 million Peter figure the Administration Roskam has been touting. The actual enrollment numbers have been closely hidden by the Administration for months, and were only obtained through inquiries directly to insurance companies, underscoring what has been a constant challenge for anyone trying to monitor the healthcare law’s progress: because the president’s legacy is so tied to the success of Obamacare, the Administration is hiding information, dissembling facts and changing the rules as they go, all in service of their own political needs. To get to the truth about the law and its implementation, I recently introduced legislation to create a Special Inspector General for Monitoring the Affordable Care Act, or SIGMA. An independent, nonpartisan Special Inspector General will offer Americans the complete picture of Obamacare, including what decisions are being made, how the law is performing and how it will impact American families. Currently, no single oversight official has the power to get all the information about a law that is unprecedented in both size and scope. At over 900 pages, with thousands more pages of regulations, the massive healthcare law will impact onesixth of our economy, and effect every American’s personal healthcare choices. SIGMA will have the authority to examine the entirety of the law, obtaining information from every one of the nine agencies and hundreds of new programs that play a role in Obamacare’s implementation. A Special Inspector General would finally give the public a true accounting of the healthcare law, bringing much-needed transparency to a government program that is impacting millions of Americans. Armed with better information, the American people and policy makers can determine the best way to stop the worst parts of the law, and craft healthcare reforms that actually uphold the promise of quality, affordable healthcare.

And have fun tonight as the party continues with the Lilac Ball. The flooding of April 2013 continues to wreak havoc in Lombard a year later. A national insurance company recently filed a lawsuit against the village and DuPage County, as well as numerous other municipalities and counties, claiming damage from the flooding was preventable.

As the village of Downers Grove moves to reduce barriers to residential backyard chicken keeping, one hopes health and liability analyses have been carried out to be sure that fresh avenues for the spread of disease will not be opened.

Responding to Westmont’s brush pick-up costs
Glen Ellyn should better control spending The village of Glen Ellyn announced there will be at $1.4 million shortfall in its budget. In the same breath, it approved the hiring of consultants to mock up new signage. With a deficit budget, the board decided to move forward with more spending. It’s always more surveys, more studies, more consulting fees on frivolous ideas with Glen Ellyn.

I’m calling concerning the article in the Suburban Life concerning Westmont’s new brush-pickup program. I was quite surprised to see this and actually disappointed in the town of Westmont. I do know that they just purchased last year a brand new chipper and a brand new chipper truck specifically for picking up brush in the village itself, which residents pay for. Also, what it doesn’t mention in the article that I’m very concerned about; if waste management is picking up brush on a basis that coincides with garbage pickup, who’s paying the additional bill for this service, which Westmont is eliminating by doing themselves? I’m sure we’re going to have another increase in our garbage pickup fee, and it’s not listed here. I am very concerned. I believe what should happen is only those who have brush pickup should have to purchase a sticker or something at the village and pay for it so that we don’t all have to share its cost, which we cannot afford. Also, there are much stricter guidelines as to how the brush has to be put out. I’m concerned that some of the elderly people aren’t able to accommodate this requirement.

According to the Suburban Life, if the Downers Grove Village Council approves the new backyard chickens ordinance, the new setback for chicken coops will only be 7 feet from property lines instead of the current 50-foot requirement. All neighbors would also have to give an OK and the $84 dollar permit would last five years before all neighbors would have to consent again. I feel few neighbors want to disagree, regardless of their desire for farm animals next door. The winners here will be foxes, raccoons and fence contractors, once chickens can be kept in virtually any neighborhood in the village. Expect that lots of high fences will be built and tight-lipped neighbors and Realtors will be torn between full disclosure and mums the word.

I see Westmont is now cutting more services but raising taxes. The streets department will no longer be picking up brush instead waste management will be doing it. And there are much stricter guidelines for putting brush out. The elderly will not be able to manage. Also, I see the village is still in talks to enact a stormwater runoff fee, better known as a tax. Residents are paying enough taxes and cannot afford what we now have. No more new taxes and stop making up new taxes that the village of Westmont residents cannot afford.

Traffic and potholes are problems in Brookfield This is to the village of Brookfield. We have to put up with all the train dogging traffic. That includes nonstop speeders, loud bass music, motorcycles, and now, so many potholes that the pavement is just thrown in. It’s too much. Our streets rarely get cleaned, so those who live there have the labor of sweeping or blowing pavement we don’t want or need in our driveways. How about making Blanchard not a one way street or replace our street and clean it? Police our street. People do not stop at the stop signs.
Bring back the W.P.A. Local, state and federal governments increase taxes to subsidize extended welfare and unemployment benefits. Why isn’t there a program like what President Franklin Roosevelt instituted? The W.P.A. put people back to work instead of the government paying more for people who don’t work. Numerous jobs could be created to give individuals and our government the pride of contributing versus collecting more and more from those who do work. America should stop playing Daddy Warbucks to those throughout the world that may be in need. Doesn’t our country deserve the same respect that we tried to gain throughout the world within the United States? Thank you. I appreciate it. Keep up the good work.
So long, Kewpies So long, Kewpies, from a customer. Kewpies is out of busi-
ness. I was there in January, and I tried to go there in February. I had training to be an election judge official and wanted to get dinner there in February and saw a sign on the door saying “we’re taking a break for awhile.” The next month I saw a sign on the door that said “taking a break.” This month, I looked in the window and saw the counter torn apart and heard from a customer Thursday, April 24, that Kewpies is out of business. Congratulations on all the years, Kewpies. We in Brookfield will miss you.
to squander. It is a sad state of affairs when the same elected officials who gave us a “temporary” 67 percent tax increase now tell us the increase will likely be permanent (shocking). Now they have to plot out new ways to get more money from taxpayers using deceiving labels like a “Fair Tax.” What this state should be doing is reducing the flat income tax rate and corporate tax rate for that matter to encourage residents and business to invest and prosper in Illinois. Instead, the same power brokers that run this one-party state encourage thoughtful taxThanks for erecting paying citizens to vote with their cross on Easter feet and leave Illinois. Illinois Thank you to the bold Chrisis going broke – pension time tians who erected the risen bombs, unpaid bills, residents savior’s cross on Easter morning and businesses leaving – and at the Brookfield train station. Springfield just keeps looking for America was founded on Biblical more revenue. As the so-called truths and religious freedoms. “Fair Tax” push gets launched, Thanks again. it has never been more obvious that Illinois is indeed in a sad Special window needed state of affairs.
at Lemont post office I just wanted to Sound Off about the Lemont post office. I went there to mail a package. One person was working in the window, where people were getting a passport. There were 12 of us waiting in line, and no one else came out the other window. I think that’s ridiculous that we had to wait more than a half-hour to mail a package. They should have either a separate window for the passports, or they should have two people working.
Springfield is wrong on tax changes There is a progressive push to hit Illinois taxpayers with a new income tax scheme involving elimination of the flat tax and embracing a new method of getting more and more tax revenues for Springfield politicians
Stormwater fee charges church-goers twice In response to the April 19 Sound off regarding my Sound Off comment published in the April 9 Suburban Life: I appreciate the reader letting me have the right to disagree with the Village Council decision to require churches to pay the stormwater fee. I’m not suggesting anything about the council members faith. I’m just stating the facts – the council’s decision to tax houses of worship will “penalize” people who practice their faith. They will be charged the fee/tax twice – once for their own home and once for their place of worship. Charging church-going village residents twice doesn’t seem fair to me. We can let the voters draw their own conclusions during the next election.

Ware, who has been championing the push to overturn the ban, said while he didn’t agree with video gaming when it was approved by the state five years ago, a clear process has been put in place to regulate it. “This is now set and governed by the Illinois Gaming Board,” Ware said. Allowing video gambling pits the village against its residents, said Breen, who, along with Fitzpatrick, spoke vehemently against the proposed repeal. “The only way we [the village] make money, is if you lose money,” said Breen, looking out at the audience. “This is not the recipe for bringing jobs back to Illinois and keeping people in the Land of Lincoln.” Fitzpatrick, one of only two trustees, along with Ware, who was on the board in 2010, said the ban was “thoughtfully put

into place,” and added that five years of data is not enough to make an educated decision on whether video gaming is harmful to society. “The harm is we just don’t know yet – there just isn’t enough history,” she said. Fugiel and Foltyniewicz agreed residents are capable of deciding for themselves if video gaming is appropriate for them. “I think Lombardians are smart enough to do what they want with their money,” Foltyniewicz said. “It’s their money.” Whittington requested a residential poll be conducted to get a better view of how residents feel about the issue, which was met with opposition from both sides. “Anybody who knows me, knows how pro-business I
am,” Whittington responded. “There’s no rush for this. I think we have a couple months to give our residents, our bosses a say.” Addressing safety concerns, Lombard Police Chief Ray Byrne said he contacted nine police departments in DuPage County, all of whom reported no increase in calls for service or criminal activity once video gaming was allowed. Four Lombard residents spoke during public comment, all voicing their opposition to video gaming. Ken Wojcik, who worked on passing gambling in Illinois for the Chicago Federation of Musicians, said he has since changed his stance. “To bring that to our village is improper,” Wojcik said. “Gaming is an illusion in front and in back (of the house). They’ll clean your clock.” Local business owners who spoke, however, said they would welcome video gaming. “I think it’ll be wonderful,” said Dawn Capone, owner of Capone’s Restaurant & Pizzeria. “We have a lot of customers that ask for it all the time. If it’s here, I think they’ll spend more money at our business.”

The latest in DuPage County’s efforts to consolidate services is now officially underway and could have long-term effects for the county’s fire departments as early as this year. County Board member Gary Grasso presented a concept four years in the making, calling for a voluntary, regional fire organization to pool services and cut costs during the county’s Judicial and Public Safety Commission meeting Tuesday morning. “The good news is that society and the fire departments and districts have somewhat put themselves out of business,” Grasso said. “The incidents of bad fires is very low, principally in DuPage County. Could a catastrophe happen any day at any time? Absolutely, and we have to be prepared for that. But the day-to-day fire service is driven by (emergency medical response).” Should the plan, or some iteration of it, be adopted by area fire chiefs, it would create a quadrant system split by Interstate 355 and Interstate 88. Each quadrant would be led by an autonomous board of fire chiefs and contain a major hospital. The boards would work to share and streamline services, buy equipment and standardize practices as much as possible. They, in turn, would be overseen by another executive board, which would facilitate further countywide cooperation. Grasso pointed to the West Suburban Fire/Rescue Alliance, which includes Wheaton, Winfield, West Chicago, Carol Stream and Bloomingdale, as an example. He said he and fellow board member and committee Chairman Grant Eckhoff had been working with local fire chiefs,
firefighter’s unions and mayors to ensure their plan was as amenable to major stakeholders as possible before moving forward. Originally, Eckhoff said, he hoped to consolidate all the fire departments under one entity but received pushback on the idea. Should the plan get full buyin, it could offset the rising cost of pensions, equipment and other expenses, Grasso said, and could even lead to the unified fire district originally sought. “The whole thing is driven by economics,” Eckhoff said. “We’re trying to get ahead of the curve and present an opportunity for people to come together to save costs.” The next step of the process is sitting down with stakeholders to begin discussing the project in greater detail. Its success will only go as far as the departments are willing to take it, Grasso said. “We’ve always taken the position from day one until today and going forward after today that this is going to be driven by the professionals and by the chiefs,” he said. “Not by the politicians, not by the mayors, not by the County Board ... this project will not be successful unless chiefs and rank and file eventually get behind it.” Elmhurst Assistant City Manager Mike Kopp, who is the city’s former fire department chief, said there is a lot of cooperation and shared practices between entities currently but more would be better. He asked the County Board members present Tuesday to reach out to their local fire departments to pitch the idea. “I’ve talked to a number of fire chiefs, and it’s hard to argue the fact that we could become better fire departments,” Kopp said. “If we’re all working from the same sheet of music, it’s going to be a lot better.”

MYSTERY DINER Restaurant reviews
Paisans pleases with more than pizza BERWYN – Walking past a colorful case of freshly made gelato on my way to the host stand at Paisans in Berwyn, I contemplated skipping lunch completely and ordering the largest bowl of Oreo cheesecake flavor I could dig a spoon into. Thankfully, our waiter suggested trying any of the gourmet burgers on the menu before diving into dessert, so I didn’t fill my stomach completely with the chocolate temptation. As my companion and I poured over pages of the menu narrowing down our meal options in an oversized booth, I couldn’t help but look around the industrial-chic restaurant. Modern and welcoming, it offers a variety of spacious seating areas. Brick and steel frame the high-ceilinged space, where scattered tanks of live fish add organic kinetic art to the high-octane vibe. I felt comfortable in my jeans and T-shirt, but so did the sundress-sporting baby shower guests in an event area across the way. As if I weren’t impressed enough before even tasting a bite, our waiter offered to put the White Sox game on a few of the flat screens that hover from the ceiling. This was definitely my kind of place. Fear not northsiders, when another patron asked to see the Cubbies, a few other

By that time, I was digging into our sampler appetizer and hardly noticed. We couldn’t decide, so we settled on a little of everything. The Paisans Sampler of calamari, Pete’s bone-in mild wings, potato skins, fried mushrooms, onion rings and pizza bread didn’t last long. I stopped myself a couple wings and about half a potato skin short of full to save room for the burger I’d ordered at our
waiter’s suggestion. When he brought it over on a wooden cutting board accompanied by a fry-filled tin can and pickle, I was thankful to still have an appetite. I had selected The Ogden Avenue, in which Paisans piles a half-pound patty with barbecue pulled pork, cheddar cheese, pickles and crispy onion strings on a pretzel bun. And yes, it was just as delicious as it sounds. My carnivorous companion
insisted he try the hand-tossed pizza, and ordered his own 12-inch pie topped with pepperoni, bacon and sausage. Although I might have switched one of the meats for a veggie, I happily helped myself to a piece. The pan style crust and sauce held their own even with all the toppings, and convinced me that three meats may not be too many for a Paisans pizza, the family business’ longtime specialty. I don’t regret my Ogden
Avenue choice one bit, but when I go back, there’s a plate of homemade linguine arrabiata begging me to try its garlic, crushed red pepper, basil, plum tomatoes and white wine sauce. Since I’d already thrown my ideas about Paisans being strictly an Italian place out the window when I bit into that pretzel bun, I’m tempted to order the kicked-up nachos as an appetizer. Featuring a full bar, the restaurant also tempts with salads, ribs, steak, sandwiches, classic Italian entrees and inhouse treats by the pastry chef. Finally, it really was time for dessert. Even though the cooler of gelato had me salivating the moment we walked in, I couldn’t deny myself the funnel cake, which was wonderfully decadent. I’ll use the gelato as a sweet excuse to return soon. Paisans offers free valet parking Thursday through Sunday evenings, an especially convenient perk. It also has locations in Brookfield and Cicero.

But it is consistency that has escaped the Rams thus far during the 2014 season. “We’ve been up and down,” Glenbard East coach Joel Pelland said. “We’ve been inconsistent; if we can be consistent both offensively and defensively, we will be tough. “We competed with Naperville Central, we beat Wheaton North, we took two out of three from West Aurora. We played with Mt. Carmel earlier in the year, we beat Lockport and we

tied Prospect. We’ve shown the ability to compete with top teams, we just have to be more consistent.” This week, Glenbard East dropped a 5-3 decision against Glenbard North on Tuesday despite a three-run home run by Tyler Behrendt. A day earlier, the Rams wrapped up their series against Wheaton North with
a 6-0 loss. The score was 2-0 through four innings before the visitors plated one run in the fifth and three in the sixth. “It was 2-0 for most of the game,” Pelland said. “We had that one inning where we kind of fell apart defensively. Those
things added up. You can’t do that when you play a good team like Wheaton North. You have to put together seven innings of good baseball, and we put together four. “We did finish the game strong. Even when we were down 6-0, we didn’t pack it in. We put some good at-bats together.” On Saturday, Glenbard East first lost 7-6 against Wheaton North in 14 innings in a game that began May 2 and was suspended after nine frames. The Rams had held a 6-2 lead going into the seventh inning before the Falcons plated four runs. Behrendt finished the twoday game 3-for-6 at the plate with two runs scored, and Mi-
chael Sebby was 3-for-7 with two RBIs. Joe Ritchie added a home run. Glenbard East did come back to win Game 2 by an identical 7-6 score. The Rams took a 7-1 advantage into the sixth inning only to see Wheaton North plate five runs, but they held on from there. “It was frightening,” Pelland said. “But the boys kept it together. We had to remind ourselves that we were still winning. Our pitcher [Anthony Esterly] went the distance. He was mentally tough enough to finish the ballgame for us.” East entered Thursday’s game against DuPage Valley Conference leading Naperville Central with a 3-9 DVC record.

ATHLETE OF THE WEEK
York Senior| Softball Why Mehring was selected: Mehring hit three home runs in the past week, including a walk-off homer against West Suburban Silver leader Oak Park-River Forest.
Do you feel like you’re all the way back from your tendinitis from last year? As normal as I think I could be, coming back from
all that. I think I’m in a better mental state this year than I have been in the past, so I think I’m going up with a clearer mind and I’ve been able to use that to my advantage.
Does it feel different being a bigger part of the team this season? It’s a lot more fun to know that I’m a part of it. Just coming back from last year and being able to use that and help the kids that came up this year and get them excited.
Have you ever had a walk off home run before? No. That was even more of a highlight for me than the grand slam just to know that I was able to help my team with that one and get us out of that tough situation.

Rams headed in right direction By DAN SANTAROMITA dsantaromita@shawmedia.com LOMBARD – It hasn’t been a memorable season for Glenbard East softball, but the young Rams have shown some potential with the bats. With just two seniors and one junior in the typical starting lineup, the Rams had to wait until Wednesday’s 8-1 victory against West Aurora to pick up their first win in the DuPage Valley Conference. However, sophomores such as Kailey Lyons and Marissa West have impressed. “Consistently, we’ve been hitting all year,” coach Nikki Simpson said. “[West] is definitely carrying the team in all aspects right now as well as our center fielder, Kailey Lyons, our leadoff [hitter]. Those two are both sophomores, great players. Always
in the game, always headsy about the game. They definitely are going to be future stars to help this program.” Lyons was 3-for-4 with two runs scored and West was 3-for-3 with a walk and three runs scored Wednesday. Fellow sophomore Kelly Tyler added a grand slam and had five RBIs. In Monday’s 13-5 loss against Wheaton Warrenville South, Lyons was 3-for-4 with two runs scored and West was 2-for-3 with two doubles, two RBIs and a run scored. Another sophomore, DoniBrooke Ross, homered against the Tigers. West said her transition to varsity hasn’t been that tough thanks to her experience playing travel ball at a high level in the offseason. “I’m used to the faster speed,” West said. “I play
with girls my age, but the older girls have been really welcoming this season and good leaders for me.” Despite the Rams’ struggles this season, West remains confident. “When it comes to softball, I really enjoy being in pressure situations because most of the time I come through,” West said. The key will be to make that confidence contagious the rest of this year and in the future with the young core. “We definitely have our ups and downs, which is fine,” Simpson said. “We just need to learn to push through those downs and continue to consistently be at an up. Our downfall right now is having those one, two or three bad innings and not knowing how to stop the bleeding and get out of it.”

York senior outfielder Morgan Mehring has battled back from injury as a junior and recovered from a slow start this season to become a key hitter for the Dukes. She is hitting over .300 and has been especially hot lately with three home runs, including a grand slam against Richards and a walk-off home run against Oak Park-River Forest, in the Dukes’ last seven games. Mehring, this week’s Oak Trust Credit Union Athlete of the Week, talked with Suburban Life sports reporter Dan Santaromita about her breakout season and the recent power surge.

Heart attack in a Fog
Get in your order at home: ‘Hey Cookie, make mine a heart attack in a fog’ by Jim Hillibish More Content Now
Y
ou might need to go back to your great-grandfather to hear stories about the plate of food that saved the nation. The Blue Plate Special is nearly long gone, as are the street-corner diners that slopped them by the millions. During the Great Depression, simple Blue Plates were the cheapest hot meals, costing a nickel to a dime. They fed the cash-starved nation, sold all day and into the late night. If you had the coin, you could eat heartily, as Blue Plates were healthy by today’s standards. Food historian Kevin Reed traces the name to a dish manufacturer who turned out cheap dinner plates with three segments, similar to a frozendinner tray. All were blue, as that was cheapest color. The three segments held the three elements of all Blue Plates: Meat, vegetables and potatoes. The plates made their way into nearly all of the nation’s 10,000 diners. Reed said the dish segments saved money on
dish washing — no need for multiple plates. “By 1937, one million people were eating at least one meal a day in diners,” he said, and they ordered the most food for the money, Blue Plates. The name does not describe a speciic recipe. Blue Plates changed daily, like today’s specials. They always were made from cheap foods, such as ground beef, potatoes, gravies and canned goods. Mixed vegetables (corn, carrots and peas) were a must. The recipes were designed for mass production, made ahead and taking only minutes to reheat, or they parked in cauldrons on the stove. Food-culture observers Jane and Michael Stern traced the modern versions in their 2001 “Blue Plate Specials and Blue Ribbon Chefs.” Their cross-country marathon stopping at every diner along the way revealed Blue Plates are alive in small, cozy eateries stuck in the 1930s. “They still are the heart and soul of America,” they concluded. Randy Garbin of Roadside Magazine welcomes

the tenuous reprise of Blue Plate Specials. “We are nostalgic for this time because we realize that in our mad rush to the 21st century we have thrown away and paved over many of the good and simple things in life. For many, all that is left is some Disneyesque diner wannabe in a barren strip mall.” Just don’t expect to ind the specials at McDonald’s, and the prices are more like $6.95 and up. Denny’s and Bob Evans still take a stab at them. You can recreate the classic Blues at home. The recipes were hoarded from the 1930s. They still are cheap, but you can hardly get the glass of water for a nickel. These below are the main courses. Be sure to add canned mixed vegetables in the alley (side dish) and perhaps a rack (biscuit) if you’re in the mood.
