Village Board votes to keep collected taxes Symbolic resolutions for motor fuel, distributive taxes passed By Paul DelGuidice For The Villa Park Independent

VILLA PARK — The Villa Park Board of Trustees, at the Monday, Oct. 26 Formal Meeting, voted to approve two resolutions to urge state legislators to consider local municipalities on two tax questions. The symbolic Resolutions entreat Governor Bruce Rauner and both Houses of the legislature to “protect full funding” of the Motor Fuel Tax (MFT) and the Local Government Distributive Fund (LGDF) revenues. “Do we know if there are a lot of other municipalities doing these resolutions?” asked Trustee Nick Cuzzone. “The answer to that is yes,” said Village President Deborah Bullwinkel, “We want our voices heard.” The state of Illinois has been operating without a budget for nearly four months due to an impasse between Gov. Rauner’s ‘turnaround agenda’ budget, which seeks changes in collective bargaining rules (among other measures) and an unbalanced budget championed by House Speaker Michael Madi-

Governor Rauner has proposed a 50% reduction in the amount of LGDF redistributed to municipalities as a way to help alleviate the state’s budget crisis. According to Village staff, a 50% reduction would amount to $1.1 million less annually for Villa Park. Asked if the resolutions will be made known in Springfield, Village Manager Keehner said: “I will transmit them to Brad Cole, executive director of IML [Illinois Municipal League], and Brad Cole will distribute those with the other resolutions from across the state.” Both resolutions were passed unanimously 6-0 by the Board as part of the Consent Agenda portion of the Formal Meeting.

State Treasurer Michael Frerichs visits Elmhurst College Calls on lawmakers to release MAP grant funding, invest in higher education

ELMHURST — Illinois Treasurer Michael Frerichs visited Elmhurst College on Tuesday, October 13 to urge Gov. Bruce Rauner and the Illinois General Assembly to approve Monetary Award Program (MAP) grants for some 130,000 students across the state who rely on it to help pay for their higher education. It was a full house in the Founder’s Lounge inside the Frick Center when State Treasurer spoke following an introduction by Larry Braskamp, interim president of Elmhurst College. Also on hand was David Tretter, president of the Federation of Independent Illinois Colleges and Universities; Donna Carroll, president of Dominican University, and representatives from Harper, North Central, Triton and other area community colleges; and, several state legislators, including Illinois State Representative and House Republican Leader Jim Durkin (82nd District); Illinois State Senator Tom Cullerton (D-Villa Park); State Representative Kathleen Willis (D-Addison) and other elected officials. Also present was Lee A. Daniels, former Illinois House Speaker who is currently on staff at Elmhurst College. Over the last few months, Frerichs has been visiting campuses across the state to lobby

need. More than 25 percent of Elmhurst College undergraduates are set to receive MAP grants. “I am looking forward to hearing the students,” Frerichs said in his remarks. “Their stories are very compelling. Some couldn’t have come to a nice college like Elmhurst without the MAP grants. They have already received letters promising they would have money to complete their education, but now the Governor has vetoed the bill* that included this funding. “I want students to feel secure that they can go to school and finish their education. It’s unfair to the students who applied to have that money in limbo.” (*The MAP funds are a part of Senate Bill 2043 which is currently stalled in the House Rules Committee.) He wrapped up his comments by stressing the importance of investing in education for today’s young people. “There is no better investment that higher education,” he said. “Nothing will hinder our future more than failing to support this program and the students who rely on it.” Donna Carroll, president of Dominican College, said of the 3470 students enrolled, almost one-third of them depend on MAP grants. “At, we have 1157 Dominican students whose funding is

in jeopardy,” she said. “The best thing about the MAP grants is that they offer higher education to a high risk and underserved portion of the population. Higher education is no longer just for the ‘white and wealthy.’” She went on to share statistics on the success of the program. For example, of all the students whose educations are funded by MAP, 80% return each year and the graduation rate is 70%; three out of four students graduate on time; and, the default rate is just 2.8%. “Illinois has made promises to 1157 Dominican students with the expectation they could finish their education,” Carroll added. “The state needs to keep its promise if it expects residents to keep its faith in government. It’s a public trust that should not be violated.” It was interesting to note that all the schools represented in the room said they had been “floating” the students’ credit during this first semester of the academic year. Everyone was able to stay in school this semester on the expectation the MAP grants will be funded. But another semester is on the horizon after the first of the year. It remains to be seen whether or not Springfield will come through with dollars needed. If not, the colleges will have

Continued from page 4 some difficult decisions to make. Republican House Leader Jim Durkin stepped to the podium to bring the reality of state finances to the forefront. “The state budget is $4 billion out of balance,” he said. “How does the state keep going? Well we are still collecting taxes, so there is income. But 90% of the funds we are receiving are already dedicated to programs in place. “The state is in gridlock. We’ve all made our points, so let’s move forward. Educational opportunities must remain available to students. We must treasure our students and rec-

ognize that their education is an investment in our future.” Update to this story The week after Frerichs’ visit, students in Dr. Mia Hardy’s sociology class rallied to form a Phone-A-Thon effort, asking others to spend time on the phone calling their state legislators and urge them to release the MAP grant funding from SB 2043. Participants were given the names and contact information of their representatives in Springfield. According to Frerichs, the best way to get the funding moving forward is to allow legislators to hear the students’ own compelling stories.

Students in Dr. Mia Hardy’s sociology class participated in the MAP call-a-thon, after attending the MAP event with the state treasurer the week before. They provided each caller with the name and number of their elected officials and had them call directly to urge them to save the MAP grants, which are part of Senate Bill 2043, currently stalled in the House Rules Committee after it was vetoed by Governor Bruce Rauner.

drags her butt across the carpet. There are no dog toots to smell and you don’t have to be concerned about anybody ransacking the neighbor’s garbage and coming home with a tuna can stuck to her tongue. When you no longer have a dog, you don’t have anyone begging for a tummy rub. No one kisses you all over your face or sniffs you in unseemly places. When you no longer have a dog, sometimes you dream about dogs and sometimes even about the one you used to have. Sometimes dogs can talk in your dreams. Those are the good dreams. When you no longer have a dog and you hear creaks or noises from upstairs you automatically think it is your dog and then remember she is gone and it couldn’t possibly be her. You wonder how long it will be before creaks and noises become just creaks and

noises. When you no longer have a dog, suddenly puppies take on a whole new level of cuteness and you think, “Maybe,” but then just as soon, “Maybe not,” because you know your heart isn’t ready yet. It may never be. But you never know. All this – good and bad – is okay, because if you no longer have a dog it means that at one time you did. In doing so, you experienced unconditional love and a companionship like none other. That is a gift. And I believe if you no longer have a dog, it is a gift waiting for you in heaven. Because all dog owners understand: it wouldn’t be heaven if dogs weren’t there. Jill Pertler is an awardwinning syndicated columnist, published playwright and author.

place. The barks of other dogs resound and seem louder than they were before. When a neighbor’s dog barks and wakes you in the early morning or late night it doesn’t so much annoy, but provokes a twinge of sadness. When you no longer have a dog you don’t have to worry about dog-hair dust bunnies or running out of dog treats. You don’t ever have to read the label on dog food for the hundredth time to make sure real meat is the number one ingredient. You can save money at the grocery store because dog food is expensive. When you no longer have a dog you notice other people with their dogs. It seems as though everyone else has one. They are walking on the street or playing fetch or post-

to pause at every fire hydrant or telephone pole or carry the plastic bag home once it is full. When you no longer have a dog and the humans in your life are unavailable, sometimes you take walks alone. When you no longer have a dog leaving the house is simplified. You can be gone all day without having someone let the dog out or feed her lunch. You don’t have to secure a spot at the kennel when you go on vacation. There’s a certain freedom to that. When you no longer have a dog there is no one to wag her tail when you come home. And when you return after a long weekend, you don’t have to worry about anyone peeing on the floor because they are so glad to see you. When you no longer have a dog shoes don’t get chewed.

recently touched a tile in my shower (it looked like it was poking out a tiny bit at the corner) and it fell off. Oops. That led to a total bathroom remodel. (Because we’re crazy that way.) I LOVE our new bathroom but that is not my point here today. A gutted bathroom meant I had to use the shower and toilet in our lower level. I had thought it would be an incredible hassle (and race against time) to have to run downstairs to pee first thing in the morning. Turns out my bladder is not the size of a peanut and can go all night and then some. I got used to showering downstairs in what had been the “boy bathroom” and I quickly got used to brushing my teeth in the kitchen sink and putting on my make up at my bedroom dresser. Now that my bathroom is done and gloriously wonderful, I caught myself heading downstairs to use the toilet and I went to the kitchen sink looking for my toothbrush.

“They” say it only takes 21 days to make a habit, and in this case, it’s true. We are liked trained monkeys. (I mean this with love, I’m one of them.) Go to a foreign country and you will get used to all kinds of toilets, and water with no ice, and warm beer. Customs and habits and how things are vary and we can vary our own. It is great news that we can get used to new things. For example, my breakfast back in the day was a Pop-Tart and a Dr. Pepper. I evolved over time to having to start my day with yogurt and granola, and now I much prefer a protein smoothie as my breakfast.

IC Catholic Prep girls volleyball team reaches regional final By Mike Miazga Correspondent

The IC Catholic Prep girls volleyball team saw its 2015 season come to a close after a 25-22, 28-26 loss to Rosary in the championship match of the Class 3A Lisle regional. “We gave them a little more than they expected,” said IC Catholic Prep coach Nancy D’Amore. “We played well. It was a great match with a lot of momentum swings back and forth. We came up against a team with a big front line, a good libero and a strong setter. We knew we had to execute our game plan and we had a good one. We had a good practice the day before and we stuck to the game plan. I couldn’t have asked for more from the girls. They played with a lot of heart and fought for every point. I was proud of what they did.” The Knights advanced to the final after downing host Lisle 25-9, 20-25, 25-16 in the semifinals. “We had beaten Lisle twice during the season,” said D’Amore. “This time it went three. We had a little scare but we were able to come back. And I think that really helped us going into the Rosary match. It was a wakeup call for the girls. It helped get them focused. It was scary, but it was helpful for us in the end.” D’Amore saw plenty of positives during the regional con-

tests. “For a couple years now it’s been about the team effort,” she said. “Our strength is our team defense and team ball control. Everybody stepped up in different ways at different times. Our defense played well and we passed well. Kerry Mulligan, Giana Curran were back there and those two along with Claudia Koch and Tess Reardon do the majority of the passing. They did well going up against Rosary’s hard hitters.” Middle blockers Katie Hendricks and Katie Harvey also played well for the Knights. “Our middles made some great adjustments,” said D’Amore. “Katie Hendricks and Katie Harvey stepped up.” Junior Kaitlyn Falduto was key for IC Catholic Prep from the service line. She held serve for 21 points in one of the regional matches, which included three aces. “Kaitlyn is a serving specialist. It’s a tough role to come off the bench like that in the middle of a match,” she said. “I was very impressed with her ability to handle the pressure of a big match. She went in there and was very aggressive. She kept them out of system. All our servers did a great job, but Kaitlyn especially did a good job. We were down 9-2 at one point I think with her serving and the next thing you know it’s 9-9.” IC Catholic Prep finished the season at 24-12 and finished fourth in a competitive Metro Suburban Conference West Division.

“If you are able to win 20 matches you have to be pretty happy,” said D’Amore. “There were times this season when we played brilliantly. I thought we played a great match against Timothy Christian early in the season and we played well against St. Ed’s. There were some matches where we hit our stride and there were some more at the end of the season. We got better and stronger as a team and as a coach you have to be happy with that.” Koch, Reardon and Mulligan earned all-MSC West Division honors. Koch, Mulligan and Harvey graduate this school year, leaving the Knights with seven returning players from this year’s roster. “It will be tough to replace those three seniors, but I also think we have some good experience returning next year,” said D’Amore.

By Don Figarelli Columnist

The Cubs did not make the World Series, but had a great year! It was too bad that Ron Santo, Ernie Banks and Harry Caray DON were not here FIGARELLI to enjoy as far as they went. I do think that the strategy the Cubs used did not work. It seemed like everyone wanted to hit a home run instead of just getting on base. I blame the head coach for not calling for a bunt, a drag bunt, choke up on the bat, take a walk, just get the pitcher out of his rhythm and comfort zone.

In cases where the upper jaw (maxilla) and the lower jaw (mandible) either protrude or recede excessively in relation to Jeffrey Bolandmay onebyanother, the T. orthodontist Licensed Orthodontic Specialist recommend that the patient wear a “headgear” appliance. These types of orthodontic appliances feature straps that are worn around the head and neck as well as wire bows that attach to braces. “Retraction headgear” is designed to retract the upper jaw, and “protraction headgear” is used to move the upper jaw forward while guiding and stabilizing the lower jaw. Headgear appliances are generally used in young patients in order to guide growing bones and erupting teeth into proper alignment and positions. To be effective, headgear should be worn 12 to 14 hours per day.

P.S. When removing orthodontic headgear, it is important to disconnect the straps first.

Galen Bergsten named 88’s Best for October VILLA PARK — Galen Bergsten has been named as Willowbrook’s October recipient of 88’s Best recognition for his academic accomplishments. Bergsten, a senior, was recognized during the Oct. 26 District 88 Board of Education meeting. As a student, Galen has taken some of the most rigorous courses available at Willowbrook. When he graduates, Galen will have taken 16 Advanced Placement (AP)/ college-level courses and a multitude of Honors courses. He has maintained a class ranking within the 99th percentile and is an AP Scholar with Distinction, a National AP Scholar, a National Merit Scholarship Commended Student and also has earned Honor Roll status each semester of his high school career. Bergsten also is Treasurer of the Tri-M (Modern Music Masters) Honor Society and the Thespian Society Troupe No. 94 and serves as Sergeant at Arms for the National Honor Society. He is an inductee of Civitas (Willowbrook’s Social Studies Honor Society), as well as the National English,

Math and World Language honor societies. Beyond the classroom,

Galen participates and leads by example in a variety of extracurricular activities at

Willowbrook. He has participated in 10 theatre productions so far as a cast or crew member, and he is a member of Show Choir, Wind Ensemble, Pep Band, Jazz Band and also is the Drum Major for the Marching Band. Galen’s commitment to Willowbrook is further demonstrated by serving as Vice President of Student Council, Team Captain of Relay For Life and a member of Blue Crew, Best Buddies, Key Club and Improv Club. He has been a part of Math Team, Speech Team, Scholastic Bowl, Model United Nations, IHSA Contest Theatre, Tennis and Science Olympiad as well. “I have known Bergsten from Math Team and AP Statistics,” said math teacher Chris Carr. “He is witty and intelligent, with all of the makings to be a strong leader. His peers look up to him, and he is not afraid to have that responsibility on his shoulders. I have no doubt he will go on to do great things.” English Department Chair and Speech Team Head Coach Brett Blair agreed. “Bergsten is a wonderfully

intelligent, creative young man,” Blair said. “Though he has a math/science mind, his command and use of both written and oral communication is already at the college level. A distinct honor and pleasure was to have him in class last year when he was a junior. His ability to delve into the literature and present witty, creative and profound analysis never ceased. I have also had the utmost pleasure in coaching and working with Bergsten these last four years on Speech Team. The awkward, nearly impossibleto-hear freshman who first stepped in front of me to the confident, jovial young man with a command in his oratorical skills has easily shown why he has been a successful Co-captain for two years and a phenomenal performer in Radio and Informative Speaking.” Galen plans to continue his education by pursuing a degree in marine science with a minor in astrophysics. He plans to apply to Stanford University, The University of Maine and various other institutions.

Addison Trail boys soccer team enjoys prosperous season Blazers win 12 games; Luna leads team with 12 goals By Mike Miazga Correspondent

Addison Trail boys soccer coach Ryan Dini wasn’t kidding when he said his team accomplished a lot this season. The Blazers finished the season 12-72 overall, finished 3-3 in the tough West Suburban Conference Gold Division and advanced to a Class 3A regional championship game. Addison Trail opened the playoffs with a 2-1 victory in two overtimes against Wheaton-Warrenville South. “It was a very well-played game by both teams,” said Dini. “The highlight for us was to stay with the game plan and find a way to score before the end of the second overtime. We showed how well in shape we were with continuing to make runs from the win position. Our players kept up the pace. That was the difference in the game and we found a way to score.” Sophomore forward Jonathan Hernandez finished a cross from senior Fernando Alvarado to win the game. The Blazers then dropped a 2-0 decision to Glenbard North in the regional championship game. “I think it was the overall experience for our team to play in a game of that magnitude,” said Dini. “We have 14 out of 21 varsity players returning next season and seven are starters. In the end, we were beat by a better team. Our players learned a lot from this game. After the match I talked with a lot of our juniors about taking the next step next season and focusing on what we need to improve on as individuals and as a team. I look for a really motivated team coming back next year.” Junior forward Enrique Luna led Addison Trail with 12 goals and seven assists. He

earned all-conference and honorable mention all-sectional accolades. Hernandez finished with eight goals and 11 assists. “Jonathan scored double the goals this year than he did during his freshman season on varsity,” said Dini. “He has great size, speed and strength and is one of the best sophomores in the area. Enrique had 12 goals and is very fast and can dribble in tight spaces.” Junior midfielder Tom Kania had eight goals and six assists, while senior midfielder Damian Zielinski had seven goals and six assists and earned all-conference honors. Junior defender Uriel Martinez had two goals and earned all-conference and allsectional honors. Senior goalie Cosme Garcia had seven shutouts, a 1.26 goals-against average and an 82% save percentage. Dini also was impressed with how his team fared playing a tough schedule. “The team had a winning record against excellent competition,” said Dini, who noted Addison Trail also placed eight players on the academic all-conference team. “Our team defense was very good with seven shutouts and only allowing two or more goals in a game five times out of 21 games. We also were able to take second in our eight-team tournament and make it to the regional final.” Addison Trail moved up from sixth to fourth in the WSC Gold this season. “We were able to execute our scouting reports on teams we played and we saw some good plays on points of emphasis during game play,” said Dini. Dini is looking forward to the 2016 season. “We accomplished a lot this year and are bringing a lot of talent back next season,” he said. “Our goal is to finish in the top three in the conference and win a regional championship next season. I’m excited to see these players grow on the field and off the field and compete at a high level next year. The future is bright for Addison Trail soccer.”

Addison Trail girls volleyball team reaches regional final

By Mike Miazga Correspondent

“It was tough for the girls to process the loss to York, but we reiterated to them how great of a season we had,” said Styler. “We went from 9-27 last year to 22-14 this year. That’s a tremendous turnaround playing a tough schedule. We played in the Lake Park tournament that has 12 teams. We finished last—12th place last year. This year we won it and that’s a testament to the hard work of these kids. It’s great for them to see the improvement not only subjectively but we got better just by looking at the raw numbers. Going from last to first in a tournament is tremendous.” Addison Trail graduates seniors Jessica Mell, Nicole Pudlo and defensive specialist Carla Muell. Mell and Pudlo are the Blazers’ starting middle blockers. “We return 10 varsity players next year,” said Styler. “We’re absolutely ecstatic about the progress we made this year but we think we can still get better with the group we have coming back.” In the win against Leyden, Anastasia Labadessa had three

The Addison Trail girls volleyball team’s seasonlong turnaround reached the regional championship round. The Blazers lost 25-13, 25-13 to York in the finals of the Class 4A Addison Trail regional. Addison Trail finished the season with a 22-14 record and shared the West Suburban Conference Gold Division title with Downers Grove South. The Blazers were 9-27 a year ago. Addison Trail reached the regional final by defeating Leyden 25-10, 25-22 in the semifinals. “We got into a groove early in the first set against Leyden and pulled away,” said Blazers coach Dan Styler. “At the end we were serving well and we broke down their servereceive. We had a 10-point run at the end of the first set

and we had a ton of momentum going. In the second set we didn’t play our best but we executed down the stretch and made some great hustle plays that sealed the win for us.” Styler said his team ran into a strong York squad in the title match. “York is a tough matchup,” he said. “I was very impressed by their play. “They were one of the best ball-control teams we played all year. On the season we averaged just shy of 10 aces per match. We had none against York. They are a fantastic ball-control team and that definitely helped the point differential on their end. We had some kills against them, but they played well and gashed us with several scoring runs. They deserved to win. They are a fantastic team.” Styler cited strong play in the two regional games from Keara Schmitt and Sarah Petrbok. “Both Keara and Sarah played fantastic in both matches,” he said. Styler said the loss to York was tough, but it doesn’t diminish what the Blazers accomplished in 2015.

Outlook: IC Catholic Prep is on a major roll. Since losing its season-opener to Kankakee McNamara, the Knights have won nine games in a row, seven of which they have scored 40 or more points in. The Knights have been equally stellar on defense, allowing 10 or less points in six games this season. Elmwood-Brimfield won the Prairieland Conference Blue Division with a record of 5-0 this season. The Trojans played five teams with winning regular-season records this season (5-0) and have put up 40 or more points in six games this season including 77 (in a 77-64 win over Farmington) and 63 in a win over South Fulton co-op. Where is Elmwood-Brimfield you might ask? Elmwood High School (enrollment 199) is located near Peoria, while Brimfield High School (enrollment 215) is located about 10 miles from Elmwood High. The two schools co-op for football. The Trojans will have a three-hour, 185-mile trek to Elmhurst from Elmwood High. Next up: The winner of this game heads to the Class 3A quarterfinals where it will meet the winner of No. 7 seed Chicago Raby (8-2) at No. 2 seed Princeton co-op (10-0). If IC Catholic Prep wins, it will hit the road to either Chicago or make the 100-plusmile journey west on I-80 to Princeton.

Congratulations Rev. William J. Conway on the Anniversary of your Ordination

These students attempt to measure a pumpkin using a ruler. Other objects used to size up the pumpkins were paper clips, tape measures or linker cubes.

The Cuban community is honored and grateful to have Father Conway as our pastor. He has kept us united in hope and faith. Father Conway’s friendly and helpful personality has made us feel like friends. On his anniversary, we wish him a long life so he can continue to minister to the Hispanic communities. We hope to celebrate one day Nuestra Señora de Caridad del Cobre with the celebration of freedom in Cuba. With Gratitude the Cuban community

On September 8, 1989, Father Conway started the celebration of Nuestra Señora de la Caridad Del Cobre, Patroness of Cuba, at Saint Alexis Catholic Church, Bensenville. Years later, he was invited to Sacred Heart Parish in Melrose Park

to preside over the celebration of Nuestra Señora de la Caridad. From that moment on, the Cubans have invited Father Conway to officiate the Eucharistic celebration every year for the past 26 years.

This Fall, Father William J. Conway celebrates his 38 years of Priesthood. Father Conway has an interest in different cultures and working with diverse communities. He has been working with the Hispanic community for the past 35 years. Father Conway was the Diocesan Director of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Joliet for 12 years and throughout that time, he worked with the Leadership Formation in the Hispanic community.
