County board approves rezoningNeighbors fearhome’s effectsdespite ownerreassurances

Heidi Litchfield – [email protected]

Chris Hutchcraft asked Grundy County to rezone the front 10 acres of his property to Agricultural-Residential so he could build a homefor his parents. The request has the neighbors who live above the property on a ridge concerned about flooding issues that may arisefrom the change in topography.

By HEIDI [email protected]

MORRIS – Despite objections fromneighbors, property owned by Chrisand Stacey Hutchcraft in rural Morrishas been rezoned by the Grundy Coun-ty Board. The approval allows Hutch-craft to construct an additional houseon his property.

The Grundy County Board voted 10to 2, with Don Neushwander Jr. andHarold Vota voting no, at Tuesday’smeeting to rezone the land from Ag-ricultural to Agricultural-Residen-tial. Neushwander and Vota did notimmediately return calls Wednesdayseeking comment on why they votedagainst it.

The Hutchcrafts own 30 acres inrural Morris on Conley Road, whichthey claim is not farmable land andtherefore should be zoned A-R.

“The LESA [Land Evaluation andSite Assessment] score of the land is154 out of 300. It is not able to providefor family. I grow about $100 worth ofhay, which doesn’t even cover the tax-es,” Hutchcraft said during the publiccomments portion of the meeting.

Changing the zoning to A-R will al-low the owners to potentially build upto three homes, each on a 3.33 acre lot.However Hutchcraft said he intendsto build only one home for his parentswhen they retire.

Hutchcraft does not live on theproperty.

“I want to make it very clear to theboard and to my neighbors that I amnot putting in a subdivision,” Hutch-craft said at the meeting. “I want tobuild one home for my parents.”

Ted Chally and Joe Conley, whoeach own property adjacent to Hutch-craft’s, asked board members to voteagainst the zoning change.

With the changes to the propertythat will be required because of flood-ing issues, neighbors are concernedstanding water on it now will migrate

to their property and what this woulddo to their septic systems.

“[Board member] Deb Warning saidshe was out here and it won’t affect myhouse because my house is built up onthe ridge,” Conley said Wednesday.“But I have a beehive, a chicken coop,and my pond is all on the same level ashis property.”

Conley said another concern isif Hutchcraft begins excavating andmaking the land suitable to build, andthen vacates the property, leavingneighbors with an eyesore or a healthhazard from standing water that couldbreed mosquitoes.

Hutchcraft said Wednesday he al-ready has fill needed to build up thearea, and has no intention of excavat-ing the property any lower or diggingfor a basement, so the concerns are un-founded.

The property previously wentthrough the county zoning boardand to the full Grundy County Boardin 2006 when a previous owner, BobStrange, tried to rezone the property to

A-R to build eight homes.At that time, eight neighbors filed

objections and the zoning was notpassed before Strange sold the prop-erty. Matt Mueller, Hutchcraft’s attor-ney, said his client was seeking therezoning before spending the moneynecessary to hire experts to see if theland is buildable.

“He’s asking permission to spendmoney,” Mueller said. “If there arewater issues, they have to be resolvedby experts and engineers. If we spendthe money and you say no, then it was

money wasted. This is just the first 10meters of a 100 meter dash.”

Mueller said he and his client arehappy with the board’s decision andfeel it was the legal decision based onthe county’s definitions for the zoning,which state they only need to meet twocriteria to be able to change the zoning.One of which is the land is not suitablefor agriculture, and it won’t harm oth-er agricultural land, which it will not,he said.

Conley’s biggest issue with the de-cision was a change in ordinance thathas taken place since the last rezon-ing effort in 2006. Now, neighbors onlyhave 30 days to file an objection, whichwould require a two-thirds majorityvote to pass the rezoning.

In 2006 the neighbors were able tofile almost two months later and wonthe right to the super majority vote.

Conley and Chally didn’t file theirobjection until 35 days, when they saythey became aware of the need to filethe objection, which already was fivedays too late.

“I want to make it very clear tothe board and to my neighborsthat I am not putting in a subdi-vision. I want to build one home

for my parents.”

Board fails to hold required hearing

By HEIDI [email protected]

MORRIS – The GrundyCounty Board neglected tohold a truth in taxation hear-ing when members passed thelevy for fiscal 2015 on Dec. 9,which could potentially costthe county dollars.

“We failed to have a truthin taxation meeting when wedid the levy,” board mem-ber Frank Halpin said to theCounty Board at the meetingTuesday night. “I guess we’lljust give up that money.”

Halpin said Wednesday hehimself voted to approve thelevy, but was not told it wouldbe over the threshold requir-ing a hearing and didn’t real-ize until later that the county

needed it.When the levy is 5 percent

or more over the previousyear’s taxes, a truth in taxa-tion hearing is required.

The 2013-14 levy was for$12,352,000, but the countyonly received $11,330,714.25.The 2014-15 levy passed inDecember was for $12,213,000,which is about 7.7 percentmore than the previous year’staxes, requiring the county tohold a public hearing prior tothe levy being voted on.

Finance committee chair-man John Galloway said thetruth in taxation hearing isnormally coordinated by thecounty administrator, a posi-tion that has not been filledyet for the county.

“Since we didn’t have an

administrator this time, it fellthrough,” Galloway said onWednesday. “The administra-tor’s job is primarily leadingus through the budgeting pro-cess.”

Once a hearing is held,proof of it is sent to the Grun-dy County Clerk’s Office sothe additional money can belevied. Without the truth intaxation hearing, the coun-ty clerk must adjust theamount levied down to 105percent of the previous year,or $11,897,249.96 for the 2014-2015 levy. This is a differenceof $315,750.

Board Chairman DavidWelter said Wednesday be-cause it can only extend up to105 percent of the prior year’sextension, the county willhave to allocate dollars differ-ently.

“We should be able to allo-cate dollars differently oncethey send out the levy sheet– meaning lowering general

and highway [funds] sincethose are overinflated any-way allowing for fluctuationin EAV [equalized assessedvalue],” Welter said in astatement. “The overage is$315,749. This amount shouldbe able to be adjusted off ofgeneral and highway.”

Welter was not at Tues-day’s meeting.

He said by making thoseadjustments, it should allow

the county to leave the otherlevies alone.

Welter and Galloway bothsaid this mistake shows theneed for a county administra-tor, a position which they areworking on filling.

The County Board files taxlevies to make sure it capturesall available property tax dol-lars once the actual equalizedassessed value, or propertyvalue, is determined. Once theactual EAV is in, taxing bod-ies usually receive less moneythan they request in the levy.

The tax rate is the costper each $100 of equalizedassessed valuation propertyowners must pay to cover thetax levy, which is the amountof property taxes a taxingbody believes it will need tooperate in a given fiscal year.The tax levy is calculated withthe EAV of all taxable prop-erty within a taxing districtto determine the rate that ap-pears on property tax bills.

Skipping tax meeting will resultin less money levied for county

At a glance

If a taxing body wants to pass alevy that is more than 5 percenthigher than the previous year’s,it must hold a truth in taxationhearing. Grundy County sought anincrease of about 7.7 percent.Because a hearing was not held,

the county will be limited to a 5percent increase – meaning Grun-dy County will get $315,750 lessthan it planned.

GEDC, Chamber plan awards dinnerSome award nominationsaccepted until Friday

By JESSICA BOURQUEShaw Media Correspondent

MORRIS – Many GrundyCounty businesses, leadersand organizations work dai-ly to grow the community inways local residents may notalways recognize.

Knowing that, the Grun-dy County Chamber of Com-merce and Industry and theGrundy Economic Develop-ment Council ensure thoseoutstanding leaders are cele-brated for their efforts at anannual awards dinner.

This year’s dinner is still amonth away, but according toNancy Norton Ammer, CEOof the GEDC, there is still timeto send in last-minute nomi-nations for the Business ofthe Year, Welcome to Grun-dy County and Partnershipawards.

Nominations are due byFriday morning and should besubmitted to the GEDC office.

“A lot of times, those busi-nesses don’t seek out any rec-ognition, but it’s nice to atleast acknowledge them forall of the work that they do,”Ammer said.

A handful of businessestook home the Business ofthe Year award at last year’sdinner, including Rezin Or-thopedic Centers, Grainco FSand Illinois Truck and Equip-ment. For this award, Ammersaid they seek a business witha continued positive impacton the community in areassuch as job creation and eco-nomic stimulation.

“It’s someone who is locat-ed here; who has invested inour community; who takescare of their employees; andwho is a good communityleader and participant,” Am-mer said of the Business of theYear winners.

The Partnership Awardis reserved for entities thatwork together in creating eco-nomic growth. In years past,taxing bodies that negotiatedto establish the county’s Eco-nomic Development ProjectAreas were given the Partner-ship Award.

“This is something that westarted because economic de-velopment is really not a one-man show,” Ammer said.

New businesses are eli-gible to win the Welcome toGrundy County Award. Thebusiness must have openedits doors within the last threeyears and demonstrate a pos-itive economic impact to benominated. Other awards giv-en at the event will includeEntrepreneur of the Year andOrganization of the Year, saidCaroline Portlock, chamberexecutive director.

The nomination period forthe Chamber of Commerceawards has closed, Portlocksaid. The GEDC ExecutiveCommittee will decide its win-ners Friday, once all nomina-tions are collected.

“We just really want to cel-ebrate those businesses, orga-nizations and individuals thatmake this area such a greatplace,” Portlock said.

T h e d i n n e r i s a d e -cades-long tradition for theGEDC and chamber, whichtry to hold the event in a dif-ferent part of the county everyfew years, Portlock said.

This year’s dinner will beheld March 11 in Minooka atChapin’s East Banquets. Any-one – including nonmembersof the GEDC and chamber –can purchase a ticket for theawards show and meal. Tick-ets are $50, or $500 for a tablesponsorship. To purchasetickets, call the chamber at815-942-0113 by March 4.

BRIEF

Child care providers plead for funding fixBy LAUREN LEONE–[email protected]

MORRIS – Stephanie Span-bauer, owner of Step-By-StepChild Care Center in Morris,fears what could happen toher business and the familiesshe serves if state lawmakersdon’t quickly address a $300million shortfall for a wide-ly used state-subsidized daycare program.

“We probably serve 500,600 kids between the five cen-ters. I have over 80 employ-ees. It’s definitely a business.[We have a] $1 million pay-roll. It’s big,” Spanbauer said.“It’s going to be devastatingfor the community. Theseparents cannot afford it. Wesee their check stubs. Theycannot pay.”

Spanbauer, with other cen-ters in Braidwood, Diamondand Ottawa, was among adozen or so child care centerowners and providers who onWednesday attended a childcare funding forum hostedby state Rep. Natalie Manley,D-Joliet. Other area lawmak-ers also attended.

If nothing is done, Span-bauer’s 80 employees wouldbe out of a job and the hun-dreds of children enrolled atthe centers would be withoutservices.

The budget shortage isa result of the state spend-ing plan approved in May.The Illinois Department ofHuman Services announcedlast month it won’t be able tofully fund the Child Care As-sistance Program, known as

CCAP, through June.Day care owner Jackie

Nussbaumer said about 90percent of children servedat Prairieland Kids Daycareand Learning Center in Mor-ris rely on the state subsidy– an increase from 10 percent

when she and her husbandfirst started the day care busi-ness years ago.

“It’s not like we tried to bededicated to poverty-strickenpeople. It’s just sort of evolvedinto this,” Nussbaumer said.

Child care providers are

now dealing with late statepayments – a catastrophicdomino effect that could leaveparents and day care centeremployees jobless.

Katie Moore, owner of Kid-die Academy in Bolingbrook,said her center would, atbest, last a couple of monthsand then be forced to shut itsdoors. About 65 percent of herclients rely on CCAP funding.

“It’s very real to them. It’svery real to me as a businessowner that we could go out ofbusiness,” Moore said.

Lawmakers attending in-cluded Manley, state Sen.Pat McGuire, D-Joliet, stateRep. Larry Walsh Jr., D-El-wood, state Sen. JenniferBertino-Tarrant, D-Plain-field, state Rep. Mark Bati-nick, R-Plainfield, and stateRep. Emily McAsey, D-Lock-port.

Several said they are wait-ing for answers from par-ty caucus leaders and Gov.Bruce Rauner, who are in themidst of negotiations.

Options to fix the fundingissue include granting Raun-er wider authority to reallo-cate money from other budgetareas or shifting $300 millionto the program from surplusfunds within the state budget.An agreed-upon solution hasyet to emerge.

Lauren Leone-Cross – [email protected]

Cicily Gant, owner of Shelby Scholars with locations in Joliet and Robbins, listens Wednesday at a childcare funding forum hosted by State Rep. Natalie Manley, D-Joliet. Providers from Morris also attended theforum, which discussed the $300 million shortfall in state funding for the Child Care Assistance Program.

12,201511OPINION

Obama’s religious hypocrisy continues to grow“Lest we get on our high

horse and think this is uniqueto some other place, remem-ber that during the Crusadesand the Inquisition, peoplecommitted terrible deeds inthe name of Christ.”

These words from thepresident of the United States,during remarks at the Na-tional Prayer Breakfast, havecaused an uproar in religiouscircles – and rightly so – inspite of the administration’sattempts to downplay thenature of his words.

You don’t have to be a long-time critic of the president tosee that his deflecting atten-tion away from modern-dayevil during a rare occasionto focus on it was a missedopportunity.

It’s one that continues ourcultural avoidance of toughquestions about faith and

reason, a public conversationthat typically gets shut down– often with threats and/orviolence – when it centers onIslam.

Besides the Crusades,President Barack Obama men-tioned slavery as somethingthat often was justified in thename of Christ, which did adisservice to the abolitionistswho were men and women offaith.

The president’s wordsalso were a slap in the faceto Christians in the MiddleEast – including those dis-placed from Iraq and Syria onaccount of the Islamic State’sattempts to eradicate their

existence in that part of theworld.

People being killed forblasphemy and Christiansbeing killed for refusing torenounce their faith is nota thing of the past, which iswhy the president’s loadedhistory lesson wasn’t the bestuse of his platform.

But Obama’s most con-troversial comments at theprayer breakfast weren’t hismost alarming.

During that same speech,he said: “No grievance jus-tifies the taking of innocentlives, or the oppression ofthose who are weaker or few-er in number.”

As the president said thisand directed those listeningto “Put on love,” I couldn’thelp but hear the echoes ofMother Teresa’s speech at a1994 prayer breakfast: “Any

country that accepts abortionis not teaching its people tolove, but to use any violenceto get what they want. This iswhy the greatest destroyer oflove and peace is abortion.”

This is why we can’t seeclearly. Our national con-science is too clouded, toocomplicit, too bogged down byfalse claims of love and choiceand freedom.

Obama also stressed theimportance of humility,which he curiously linked toa “suspicion of governmentgetting between us and ourfaiths, or trying to dictate ourfaiths, or elevate one faithover another.”

We’re a country that usesGod’s name in many ways butalso increasingly privatizesthe practice of religion, shuntsit off to the side and keeps itcordoned off from the public

sphere that so needs its influ-ence. The Hobby Lobby healthcare case before the SupremeCourt last summer was aboutthe Obama administrationinsisting that religious libertydoesn’t extent to people pursu-ing commercial activity andproviding jobs.

It’s a posture that religiousbelievers have contributed toand are now falling victim to.

Humility is needed tosee that humility itself hasbecome its own religion,mandating compliance with atyrannical impulse.

THANK YOU FOR SUPPORTTO NETTLE CREEKTo the Editor:On the evening of Saturday, Jan. 10, the

Nettle Creek School PTO held its thirdannual Wine & Stein fundraising event.Since its inception the event has grownsuch that this year the venue was movedto the big tent at the Morris Country Club.On behalf of the students and staff at Net-tle Creek School, I would like to take thisopportunity to thank the Nettle Creek PTO,the Nettle Creek families, and the entireMorris community for the overwhelmingamount of support for this event.After being a school/district leader

for 17 years now, I can tell you that thedifference between an average schooland an outstanding school is the amountof parental and community support theschool receives. I feel so blessed to be partof a school community that truly puts theneeds of children first. This fundraisingevent is but one example of the many,

many things that occur throughout theschool year that show how lucky we are allto be a part of this learning community.This year the Wine & Stein raised nearly

$22,000. These funds go directly back tothe classroom and school to help meetthe goals of our school improvement planand our district strategic plan. Last year,for example, a $10,000 check was writtenby our PTO to help with our one-to-onetechnology initiative. Without this support,it is unlikely that we would have been ableto launch that program building-wide thisyear. As the PTO works with staff and ad-ministration to strategize on the best waysto use the funds, please know that we areall very thankful for the local businesses,community members, Nettle Creek fami-lies, and others who came out to supportus in such a big way. “The Village” reallycame through for the kids of Nettle CreekSchool.

More power, higher ‘standards’ enhance Dodge 2015 lineupThe Chicago Auto show always has

“wow,” and the Dodge display will beno exception.

Center stage, according to Dodge,will be given to the 2015 ChargerHellcat and Challenger Hellcat, vastlyupgraded versions of the “basic” mod-els, and with 707-horsepower monster6.2-liter Hemi engines that Dodge sayscan rocket either from 0 to 60 miles perhour in under four seconds.

After the wow, however, the “real”stars emerge. These are the mainstaysof the 2015 lineup, the vehicles you cansit in, examine thoroughly, ask about,collect materials on ... or do all thatand take yours home from your localdealership.

The Dodge lineup includes theChallenger, Charger, Durango SUV,iconic Grand Caravan minivan, Dart,Journey and Viper. This reviewlooks at Charger and Challenger, the“original” but always improved GrandCaravan, and everyone’s favorite four-door sedan, the Dart.

First, the “retro” Challenger getsa 1971-inspired exterior and newinterior design features. Also new isa segment-first eight-speed automat-ic transmission, delivering up to 11percent better fuel economy. Upgradesinclude an all-new Uconnect Accesssystem with standard touchscreen,standard new 7-inch multi-view gaugecluster, new performance electronicshifter, and Keyless Enter ‘n Go withpush-button start.

Power comes from a stellar trio: thebase 305-horsepower, 3.6-liter Pen-tastar V-6, the 5.7-liter Hemi V-8 with375 hp, and the 6.4-liter Hemi with 485hp. Both V-8s use Fuel Saver Technol-

ogy that deactivates four cylinderswhen eight are not needed.

Charger and Challenger both offerSRT models, of which the Hellcats arethe apex, but with more the “moremanageable” 392-cubic inch (6.4-liter)Hemi V-8 with 485-horsepower (upfrom 470). Linked to a segment-firsteight-speed automatic, the Hemi comesstandard with fuel saver technologythat allows the engine to operate infour-cylinder mode. New PerformancePackages allow drivers to tailor thedriving experience by controllinghorsepower, transmission shift speeds,paddle shifters, traction and suspen-sion. Also standard is the largest front-brake package ever offered in a Dodge.

A new, driver-focused 2+3 cockpit isdesigned for true performance enthu-siasts, and the trunk offers a respect-able 16.2 cubic feet of cargo room.

Dodge re-sculpted the already sleekfive-passenger Charger, adding LEDlighting both front and rear. Upgradedrear-wheel-drive architecture offersnew driver-selectable steering modesand improved suspension tuning. Allmodels are standard with the eight-speed automatic.

Powerplants include the 3.6-literV-6 Pentastar, 5.7-liter Hemi V-8 on theR/T, and the 6.4-liter Hemi V-8 in theSRT 392 and R/T Scat Pack models.

Other availables are a segment-ex-clusive BeatsAudio system, newclass-exclusive 8.4-inch touchscreenmedia center with Uconnect Accesssystem, and new class-exclusive 7-inchDID cluster, electronic shifter and Key-less Enter ‘n Go with push-button start.

The Dart four-door sedan – rankedNo. 1 in quality among compacts --

adds a new Tigershark 2.4-liter Multi-Air engine that makes it a Partial ZeroEmission Vehicle (PZEV). Enginesalso include the Tigershark 2.0-liter,and a 1.4-liter MultiAir IntercooledTurbo. The I4s can be linked to a six-speed manual, six-speed Powertechautomatic or dual dry clutch six-speedautomatic transmission, with highwayfuel economy ratings of up to 41 mpg.

The Dart’s Uconnect Touch 8.4-inch touchscreen radio is updated toinclude Android smartphone com-patibility for Bluetooth, voice com-mand and streaming music and USBconnectivity.

The iconic Grand Caravan just getsbetter, now offering an industry-firstdual-screen Blu-Ray DVD video sys-tem with four-time higher resolution

on Crew and R/T models. Power isthe Pentastar 3.6-liter V-6 mated toa six-speed automatic, which offer abest-in-class 3,600-pound tow rating.Integrated Trailer Sway Damping isstandard on all models.

The available Safety Sphere Pack-age includes rear park assist system;rear backup camera, blind-spot Moni-toring and Rear Cross Path detectionsystem, rain-sensitive wipers andautomatic headlamps. The highly-fa-vored Super Stow ‘n Go seating allowsfor cargo space of 143.8 cubic feet withthird and middle seats folded down.-- Sources: FCA US LLC, Chicago Auto Show media services

Kempiak, defense shut downG-SWBy ROB OESTERLE

SOMONAUK – It took alittle while for the Newarkgirls basketball team to getgoing Wednesday night. Butwhen they hit their stride,the Norsemen zoomed pastGardner-South Wilmington,claiming a 54-20 win in thesemifinals of the Class 1A So-monauk Regional.

Newark (19-7), the top seedin the regional, got out to a 7-0lead, but fourth-seeded Gard-ner-South Wilmington (18-12)closed the gap to 11-7 by theend of the first quarter.

That’s when Mozelle Kem-piak took over for Newark.

The 6-foot junior displayedher all-around game in thesecond quarter, draining apair of 3-pointers and scor-ing three buckets underneathto finish the quarter with 12points.

Newark outscored G-SW16-2 in the second to take a27-9 halftime lead. Kempiakfinished with a game-high 22points.

Kempiak’s first two bas-kets of the second quarterwere putbacks after offensiverebounds, then she sprint-ed the length of the floor toscore on a layup after a stealby teammate Kelsea Zitt. Shethen stepped outside and hittwo straight 3-pointers to givethe Norse a 23-7 lead.

“Mozelle really got herrhythm in the second quar-ter,” Newark coach DaleSkelton said. “That secondquarter was the key for us.We hadn’t played in almosttwo weeks, so we were a lit-tle rusty in the first quarter.Once we got going, we playedwell.

“Mozelle found her ele-ment tonight. She has thetalent and really found herconfidence tonight. She runsthe floor very well for a big,and she can step outside andshoot the 3. She’s a toughmatchup.”

The Newark 2-3 zone wasa tough matchup for Gard-ner-South Wilmington allnight, as the Norsemen forcedthe Panthers into 24 turn-overs. Besides the turnovers,the Panthers offense was

disrupted numerous timesby Newark defenders havingtheir hands in the passinglanes and tipping balls away.

“It always starts with de-fense,” Skelton said. “Thereare too many variables on

offense to always count on it.Sometimes you have nightswhen the shots don’t go in.But, you can always play de-fense, and that’s what we liketo do.”

After holding G-SW to just

two points in the second quar-ter, Newark’s defense didthe same thing in the third,taking a 44-11 lead into thefourth.

Gardner-South Wilm-ington’s Maranda Residori,

scoreless through three quar-ters, scored six in the fourthto finish as the Panthers’leading scorer. Jenni Priceand Marlana Ferrari eachscored three.

Besides Kempiak’s 22points, Newark got 10 fromMegan DiClementi and eightfrom Jasmine Mitchell, their6-3 sophomore center. Di-Clementi hit a pair of 3-point-ers in the third quarter. Afterher first, she was poked in theeye, but stayed in the gameand drained another soon af-ter.

“Megan is a tough girl,”Skelton said with a laugh.“She comes from a big family,so I guess she has to be tough.She did a real nice job for usand gave us a nice spark offthe bench. That’s why I likeher coming off the bench. Weknow we are going to get a lotof energy out of her.”

The Norsemen take onthe winner of Serena andSomonauk at 7 p.m. Friday.It will be the ninth straightregional title game for New-ark and its 14th in the last 16years.

“We need to have our ‘A’game from everyone Friday,”Skelton said. “We’ve playedin a few of these regional fi-nals, so we know what wehave to do. It’s nice when youhave the talent these girlshave, and we’re excited to beplaying for a regional titleagain.”

Jackie Robinson W. loses titleBy JON SEIDEL

and SETH GRUENChicago Sun-Times

When allegations first sur-faced last year that the JackieRobinson West All-Stars base-ball team cheated its way to anational championship, LittleLeague International officialsinvestigated from afar.

They made phone calls.They looked at a boundarymap dated May 1 to make suremembers of the team thatstole Chicago’s heart met res-idency requirements makingthem eligible to play. Every-thing looked in order.

But the whispers wouldn’tgo away. So Little LeaguePresident and CEO StephenKeener said his organizationdecided to visit Chicago. Andin a series of face-to-face meet-ings Jan. 31, new informationsurfaced that led to the or-ganization’s announcementWednesday that it was strip-ping Jackie Robinson West of

its national championship.Now, months after Jack-

ie Robinson West broughttogether people of all races,Little League’s decision hasprompted fresh and divisiveallegations of discriminationaround Chicago.

Little League officialslearned Illinois District 4Administrator Michael Kel-ly didn’t follow proper pro-cedure when Jackie Robin-son West’s boundary mapwas redrawn and approved,Keener said. The new mapallegedly stole territory fromthree neighboring leagues –the Roseland, Rosemoor andSouth Side little leagues.

That map was sent to LittleLeague this fall to rebut alle-gations of cheating, Keenersaid. But officials learned Kel-ly back-dated it to make it “le-gitimate for the 2014 season.”

The Chicago team’s crownwill now go to the Las Vegasteam they beat in the nationalchampionship.

CROSSWORD SUDOKU BRIDGE by Phillip Alder

CELEBRITY CIPHER

PUZZLES

Joseph Priestley, an English chem-ist, political theorist and clergymanwho some believe discovered oxygen,said, “The more elaborate our meansof communication, the less we com-municate.”

Priestly died in 1804, but that isstill true today if we append “face toface.”

Communication in bridge is two-fold. During the bidding, each playeris trying to describe his hand to hispartner. In the play, it is the ability toget from one hand to another.

How does South communicate tomake three no-trump in today’s dealafter West leads the spade queen andEast signals enthusiastically with hisseven? (Given that declarer is knownnot to have four spades, there is astrong case for East’s playing his kingat trick one.)

Declarer has only six top tricks:one spade, one diamond and fourclubs. If he plays on hearts, here hewill lose four spades and one heart.Instead, South should try to gain fourdiamond tricks. This requires not onlyfinding East with the diamond king,but also perhaps having to take thatfinesse three times. If so, what are thethree dummy entries?

After winning the first or secondspade trick, declarer should cash hisclub ace, then lead the club sevenover to dummy’s queen. On theboard for the first time, South takes adiamond finesse. Next, since the clubsbroke 3-2, declarer must overtakehis club jack with dummy’s king andrepeat the diamond finesse. Finally,he leads his carefully conserved clubtwo to dummy’s four and takes thethird diamond finesse to bring homethe contract.

What is the key tocommunication?

Dear Abby: My husband,“Mason,” and I have beenmarried for 10 years. We havea beautiful 7-year-old daughterand have just found out weare having another girl. Theday we learned her gender,Mason dropped a bomb on me.He said he’s not in love withme anymore, and it has beeneating at him for a while. Hesaid he was too scared to tellme sooner.

He won’t talk to anyoneand doesn’t seem to want tofix it.

We both came from brokenhomes and had always agreednot to do that to our kids. ButI can’t act as if everything isnormal under the same roof.

He says he’ll stay at hisbrother’s place at night afterour daughter goes to sleep.He’s at work before she’s up

for school anyway. We agreedthat if she wakes up at nightand calls out for him, I shouldtell her he got “called in towork.” Please give me someadvice. – Broken In Nevada

Dear Broken: By the age of 7,your daughter is old enoughto recognize tension betweenher parents. She also is awareenough to comprehend thather father is no longer livingthere if he’s spending hisnights elsewhere, particularlyif he intends to carry on thischarade for any length of time.

You say your husband“won’t talk to anyone,” buthe owes you some straight

answers. If he hasn’t been inlove with you “for a while,”he shouldn’t have fathered asecond child with you.

Would his feelings bedifferent if the baby you’recarrying was a boy? Couldthere be another womaninvolved? Your husband owesit to you and those children toact responsibly and at least tryto save his marriage. Runningaway is not the answer.

In the meantime, my ad-vice is to talk to a lawyer andtake your cues from her orhim about protecting yourselfand your children financially.Doing so does not mean you“must” file divorce papers, butyou will have someone whoisn’t emotionally involvedlooking out for your interests.

Dear Abby: What should asingle, straight woman do if

she is attracted to and inter-ested in a man she is “prettysure” is gay? What shouldshe do in the same situationif he is openly gay? Shouldshe ignore her feelings? Tellhim? – Attracted To Him InWashington

Dear Attracted: If the womantells her gay friend how shefeels, he may be flattered, orit may make him uncomfort-able. That’s the risk she takes.

As to whether she shouldignore her feelings, if shewants a romantic partner whocan reciprocate her physicalattraction, she will have toconcentrate on finding some-one who is straight. Trust meon that.

Dear Abby: A friend of mine,“Fran,” died nine years ago.Before her death, I had littleinteraction with her husband,

“Dexter.” As a matter of fact,when I met Fran, she wasdivorced, but she and Dexterreunited.

Dexter and I are now inlove and are planning to mar-ry. He is 66 and I am 61. A lotof people feel it is wrong for usto be together. Your thoughts,please? – Going For HappinessIn South Carolina

Dear Going: “A lot of people”are unhappy in their lives andjudgmental. They sometimespoke their noses into mattersthat are none of their busi-ness. If you and Dexter wantto be happy, avoid the nay-sayers as if they have a virus– because the kind of ill willthey spread is contagious.
