Village employees have given their time and expertise to make sure the work goes smoothly and the proper plants are spared. A few have pitched in with the labor, such as Trustee Michael Foley, who said he hopes that projects such as this can begin the process of bringing people back to the river, something the man who planned Riverside, Fredrick Law Olmstead, intended. “Olmstead wanted us to be near the river. ... I think as a town we’ve neglected the views,” Foley said. Buttimer agreed. “This is why we are here,

RIVERSIDE – On a typical warm day, you can find a handful of people enjoying the public space behind Village Hall and the library along the banks of the Des Plaines River. Joggers wind their way along the public footpaths, fisherman cast their lines into the slow current and bird watchers spy on Canadian Geese. Recently, chainsaw-wielding volunteers can be seen, too. They’ve been slicing into tree after tree along the north bank of the river in an effort to restore the area to its former glory. The effort has been led by Jerry Buttimer, a Riverside resident, who said that the trees and plants his group removes are weeds that have
been allowed to ruin one of the best views in town. “This has been overgrown for over 50 years,” Buttimer said, gesturing to the thin trees and snaking vines that crowd out the view of the river behind the Riverside library. “Here’s this drop-dead gorgeous river, especially from a high elevation, and now you can stand behind this amazing piece of architecture and you can see the suspension bridge.” The group’s goal is to tame the unkempt greenery by removing invasive species and opening up what Buttimer calls “pockets” in the trees that cover the north bank to allow people to view the river as well as construct a footpath, complete with safety fence, running from the H. Wallace Caldwell Memorial Suspen-

Notice anything different about your front page today? Go ahead and check if you didn’t, it’s kind of subtle. Need a hint? We’ve added the words “Riverside & Brookfield” above the logo for this newspaper. Those towns were always listed there, of course, in smaller type. But we wanted to bring a stronger emphasis to how committed we are to local news coverage. After Shaw Media purchased this newspaper and 21 others in the western suburbs in October 2012, we started asking readers, government officials, business owners, chamber of commerce directors and anyone else who came to mind what they wanted in a local newspaper, and how well we were meeting those goals. What we heard were all kinds of answers. We learned that the perception of this newspaper didn’t line up entirely with what we wanted it to be. That’s partly because the paper needed to improve, and we think it has. We’ve introduced a series of changes gradually in the past year, and we’ll continue to do so into the next year and beyond. We’re constantly brainstorming ways to make your newspaper better, more local, and more relevant to your life. In cased you missed any, here are some of the improvements we’ve made: In the past year we’ve added the Mystery Diner restaurant feature, The Argyle Sweater comic, and Chicago football coverage from HubArkush.com.

Former S.E. Gross Middle School science teacher Joseph Lis pops a chocolate covered insect in his mouth. Students recalled Lis offering them to students in years past at a ceremony dedicating a science lab in his honor.
Wrong turn leads to a 37-year career By MATTHEW HENDRICKSON

BROOKFIELD – On a November day in 1956, Joseph Lis found himself lost in Brookfield while on his way to the zoo. By chance, he happened to drive by S.E. Gross Middle School and decided to stop in to ask for directions. While getting his bearings, he struck up a conversation with the school’s principal about his military service and his recent degree from DePaul University. By the end of their conversation, Lis was offered a job and began a 37-year career as a science teacher at the school the following day. The job would introduce him to his wife, also a teacher at the school, and inspire many of his students, some of who attended a ceremony at Gross Middle School on Saturday for the dedication of one of the school’s science labs in his honor. To his former students, he was – and will always be – Mr. Lis; a teacher who made science fun, offered treats of chocolate grasshoppers and issued the confusing advice of “hurry up and take your time.” “I’m very humbled and honored to have the new science lab dedicated to me,”
“I would not be where I am today without Mr. Lis.” Karl Skala class of 1960 Lis told the crowd in his address. “Never in my wildest dreams did I expect to get anything like this.” Lis likened the dedication of the lab in his name to becoming a member of the science hall of fame. There was no shortage of prestigious proclamations at the event, either. George West, a representative of U.S. Secretary of Education Arne Duncan, read aloud a proclamation from Duncan thanking Lis for his important work educating generations of students in the fundamentals of science. Proclamations and letters also were read by representatives of the U.S. Marine Corps., which Lis honorably served in, the Brookfield Village Board, state Comptroller Judy Baar Topinka and U.S. Senator Dick Durbin. But the most touching statements came from the many former students who filled the Gross Auditorium

BROOKFIELD – On Sunday, scores of residents are expected to come out to Kiwanis Park to show their support and raise funds for a local family to help with cancer treatment for their son. In September 2010, Vincent Grigoletti began experiencing headaches. An X-ray at La Grange Memorial Hospital showed a tumor in his brain soon after, which was successfully removed. Vincent then went through six weeks of radiation treatment to his brain and spinal column in Chicago, followed by six months of chemotherapy at Loyola University Medical Center. Vincent was in remission until July when a MRI scan showed a new tumor in his frontal lobe. Because Vincent has had a relapse, his treatment options now are limited. One of the
Continued from page 4 and stood to share their memories of his class. “I would not be where I am today without Mr. Lis,” said Karl Skala, class of 1960. Skala spoke of the influence his former science teacher had on his life and how Lis’ class put him on the path to a career as a scientist. Former students also recounted stories of still being able to remember all the bones of the human body, the anatomy of frogs and the impact of his methods as a teacher. Another former student, Jan Minarovic Fiala, class of 1958, recalled Lis’ teaching abilities and how they led her on the path to become a teacher as well – eventually teaching second grade at Gross (a colleague of her former teacher) when the school still housed elementary students. “He worked his magic and had us all loving science,” Fiala said, and even present-
ed Lis with a chocolate covered insect at the ceremony, which he quickly popped in his mouth and crunched away. Assistant Principal Ryan Evans said the school was proud to dedicate the school’s first floor, seventh-grade lab in Lis’ honor. “Strong educators are what District 95 is all about,” Evans said. “It is built upon educators like Joe Lis.” To a room of laughs, Lis said there was only one group he was surprised were not in attendance at the event. “I’m surprised we didn’t have anyone from the fire department here – they knew me pretty well,” Lis joked. He recounted a time when he showed students the reaction that occurs when sulfuric acid is poured on a bowl of sugar. “There was a lot of smoke – the fire department was here in about 15 minutes.” But then, you don’t become a beloved science teacher without a flair for bringing your material to life.

LA GRANGE – Bilal Beiram had been unemployed for a year, and with a wife and four kids, he knew he had to find work. The 45-year-old has an engineering degree and a master’s degree in accounting, but couldn’t get a job – his credentials, in fact, handcuffed him as companies hired younger people for less money, he said. “I was even willing to start all over from the beginning at a company with an accounting job,” Beiram said. “It just wasn’t there.” What he did next shocked many of his friends, understandably so. “I sold my house,” Beiram said. “I took the equity from my house and put the money into this.” This, turned out to be Falafelji. On Nov. 7 last year, Falafelji opened at 3910 S. Harlem Ave. in Lyons. Beiram, who grew up in Jordan and moved to the U.S. at 18, had plans to introduce area residents to the food he loves. “I really had a lot of doubts when I opened over here,” he said. “People told me … there’s no Middle Eastern people … I said, ‘That’s OK, I’m going to take that gamble.’ We did struggle in the beginning until the word started getting out.” Within a few months, customers from neighboring towns, including many from La Grange, were stopping by for tastes of falafel or chicken kabob, Beiram’s best seller. By the middle of the year, the restaurant was doing well enough that Beiram decided it was time to expand to a second location, which he plans to open this week at 13 S. La Grange Road. “I actually had my eye on La Grange for a very long time,” Beiram said. “… It reminded me of overseas, more like the Middle East where people just walk to do everything, [or like] Europe.” The La Grange Falafelji will offer the same menu and seating. Beiram has hired two decorators to create a Middle Eastern theme – part of

Falafelji owner Bilal Beiram serves customers at his restaurant in Lyons on Thursday. Beiram is opening another Falafelji restaurant in La Grange. the seating area will take on a Bedouin tent-look with seat covers made from traditional fabrics. Next summer, Beiram hopes to have outdoor seating, too. “It adds to the diversity of the food scene in La Grange,” Beiram said. “La Grange has a great food culture. The only thing that’s missing is Middle Eastern food. And it seems like there is a good demand.” Beiram is more than happy to fill in the void. At 10, he already was spending summers working in a small falafel shop in Jordan run by his grandfather, who had been a cook in the Jordanian Army. For a few years in the mid-80s, Beiram and his brother ran a Middle Eastern restaurant called The Nile on 63rd Street and Kedzie Avenue in Chicago. “It’s my culture. It’s my food. … I like to expose it,” he said. “I like everybody to know about it and try it and be hooked on it.” So far, his plan seems to be working. Beiram said customers enjoy the food because it simply tastes good and is much healthier than typical fast food. The Lyons location has done well enough that Beiram took the second half of equity from his old home and invested it in the La Grange location. “Everybody tells me I’m just a gambler,” he said. “But I said, ‘No, the business is good. In a couple of years, we’re going to be doing really well.’ Once we get known in the western suburbs that this is the place for good Middle Eastern food, that’s it. We’re set.”

Lyons officer charged with robbery by FBI SUBURBAN LIFE MEDIA

LYONS – An officer with the Lyons Police Department has been charged with robbing and extorting targets of his investigations into the sale of contraband and counterfeit cigarettes, the FBI’s Chicago Office announced Monday. Jimmy J. Rodgers, 43, was charged in a one-count criminal complaint filed last Thursday in U.S. District Court in Chicago with Hobbs Act robbery, a felony, according to a news release. The complaint against Rodgers was unsealed Friday after he appeared in court. Rodgers was released pending his next court appearance, which is not yet scheduled. Rodgers is accused of recruiting a cooperating source to help set up sales where the source would sell contraband cigarettes to potential targets. According to the criminal complaint, Rodgers would pay the source a fee for each transaction the source conducted. The complaint detailed two transactions between the source and targets, for which the source was provided a village of Lyons check to pay for his services. The complaint further alleges the source was later paid in cash following subsequent transactions from money paid to the source during the transactions, the source told the FBI in June. According to the release, the source agreed to record
conversations and meetings with Rodgers in connection with another contraband cigarette transaction with a potential target. On July 30, the source received $11,280 from the target in exchange for 300 cartons of cigarettes and was told by Rodgers to keep $3,280 of that amount. The source also was given 30 cartons of cigarettes to pass to another source, which help arrange the transaction with the target. According to the release, Rodgers was recorded allegedly acknowledging that he was not supposed to pay the source from the proceeds of the transactions and told the source to say all payments were given via check from the police department. An FBI agent reviewed the report of the July 30 transaction filed by Rodgers and noted that the report did not mention the seizure of cash from the target. The Lyons Police Department also had no record of Rodgers turning in $8,000 from the transaction. Robert J. Shields, Jr., acting special agent in charge of the Chicago Office of the FBI, thanked the assistance provided by the Lyons Police Department and the FDA’s Office of Criminal Investigations during the course of the investigation. If convicted, Rodgers could face a maximum penalty of 20 years in federal.
and Perales cut the wires from the building and stole the entire 5-ton air conditioning units. Police also said that Perales sold the units, which consisted of aluminum and copper, to a scrap yard in Chicago for $1,000. The estimated value of the units that were stolen was $15,000. After pleading guilty, Perales was sentenced to five years in the Illinois Department of Corrections.

ELMHURST COLLEGE FALL 2013
The Shame of College Sports Taylor Branch
Inside the Vatican John Thavis
Last year in The Atlantic, Taylor Branch published what the commentator Frank Deford said “may be the most important article ever written about college sports.” The real scandal, says Branch, is the very structure of college sports, wherein athletes generate billions of dollars for big universities while earning nothing for themselves.
Journalist and “Vaticanista” John Thavis has covered three popes and the highest reaches of the Catholic hierarchy for more than 30 pivotal and tumultuous years as a correspondent and bureau chief in Rome. The author of The Vatican Diaries, he offers a behindthe-scenes look at the power, personalities and politics at the epicenter of the Catholic Church.

What Roger Ebert Meant to Us How did a movie critic for Chicago’s second-largest paper win the Pulitzer Prize and become a national cultural icon? And how, late in life, did he become a figure of grace in the face of suffering?

Protect children Recently, an adult male was charged with watching porn in the youth department of Westmont library. He would not be able to do that if the library cares more about our children and installs software that blocks adult material. Who knows how many children were exposed to this online filth? All public libraries should protect children from this. They are funded by our taxes, and we want our children to be safe at the library. Public schools get funds from taxpayers, too, and they have filters on computers that students use. Why not public libraries? If we want to raise moral and responsible citizens, do your part, libraries. It takes the whole village to raise a child!

Trumping our laws Our president has stated that he is eager to sign the United Nations arms trade treaty. Articles 8, 12 and 15 of that treaty create international pressure for every nation to register all gun owners who purchase guns imported from other countries. The text of the treaty states that it is of unlimited duration, so even if the current U.S. Senate does not ratify the treaty after the president signs it, it still exists and waits patiently for some future Senate years later to get the two-thirds majority for ratification. Article 6 of the U.S. Constitution states that all treaties made by the U.S. are supreme law, regardless of anything to the contrary in the U.S. Constitution itself, U.S. laws or state laws. Yes, treaties, signed and ratified, trump anything in the Bill of Rights, including the Second Amendment. Thank you.

Years ago the District 200 School Board cut “B” team sports from the middle school level with the promise of trying to bring them back in the near future. That time is now. Approximately 140 more student-athletes could participate in girls volleyball, boys basketball and girls basketball if we reinstated teams at this level. If you are a believer of kids being actively involved in sports and the benefits that come along with that, email the school board at board@cusd200.org and let them know to bring back the “B.”

LeaderShop’s Junior High Leadership acts to prepare students Early Saturday morning, 88 seventh and eighth graders from 14 local middle schools gathered at La Grange Highlands Middle School’s gym. Bleary-eyed initially, they soon were ramped up and excited by the high school COMMUNITY Teen Leaders who led them in fun VOICE energizers to help Sammi them begin to feel Grzeca like a community. Throughout the day, speakers, teambuilding exercises and small group discussions opened the youth’s minds to new ways to see themselves as leaders and to see the world as full of wonderful diversity. Speakers Eddie Slowikowski, and then Matt and Paul from M&P Presentations, discussed leadership skills, motivation, diversity and teen-related issues. The LeaderShop’s performance group, “Watch My Feet,” led the young teens with skits and dances that promote compassion and acceptance toward one another and good decision-making skills. Every year, the Junior High Conference prepares students to make decisions necessary to plan and implement successful service projects during that school year. It also gives students the opportunity to meet new people from different junior high schools, staff from The LeaderShop and positive adult role models. Some examples of service projects by middle school students last year include a dodge ball tournament that helped buy basketball uniforms for boys and girls teams at the school, a donated book movie night to benefit Community Nurse Health Association and a T-shirt sale to benefit the World Wildlife Fund. Coming up, the Annual High School Leadership Conference will be Nov. 16. Visit our website, or call one of the staff for more information.

8LETTERS Western Cook County ready for insurance exchange To the Editor: There has been a great deal of press this past week or so about the readiness (or lack thereof) of the Affordable Care Act Health Insurance Exchange in Illinois and in other states. But no matter what reaction one has to these recent articles, the purpose of this letter is to let West Suburban Cook County know that there is local help. As in other communities throughout the state, outreach and enrollment in these western suburbs of Cook County has been entrusted to community organizations with a long history of community–wide outreach and service in health care and social services. Community Nurse Health Center is proud to be leading a collaboration of area nonprofits in Lyons and Proviso Townships to educate community residents and small businesses and assist with enrollment in new insurance options and expanded Medicaid for low-income adults. This collaborative, called the West Suburban Cook County ACA Coverage Network, is a partnership of several trusted local organizations, including Aging Care Connections, BEDS, Helping Hand, Mujeres Latinas En Accion and Pillars, in addition to Community Nurse. The partnership is supported by a state grant from the Illinois Department of Public Health, a federal grant from the Health Resources and Services Administration and support from Community Memorial Foundation. Outreach and enrollment workers, as well as several current staff at

these community nonprofits, have been trained and will be certified by the federal and state government as “In-Person Counselors” to help persons enroll on the Exchange. Bilingual assistance (in Spanish, Polish and Arabic) will be available and we will be able to refer persons needing other language assistance to the appropriate organizations for help. In addition, these six trusted community organizations will work with Adventist La Grange Memorial Hospital, the Townships, school districts, libraries, churches and other community organizations to help educate the more than 35,000 persons residing in Lyons and Proviso Townships who are eligible for these new health coverage insurance plans and benefits.

To the Editor: In the last couple of weeks, I have had some very nice interactions with several young people in La Grange. I am a senior citizen struggling with Parkinson’s disease. On Aug. 8, some friends and I went to the La Grange Theatre. The manager of the theatre and the manager of Wild Monk – where we went after the movie – went beyond the ordinary to help me get around. This was nice, but the young couple (who were expecting their first child in two weeks) who jumped our dead car battery, were really a Godsend. They kept assuring us that it was no bother and they did not want a tip. Again on Sept. 14, I was having lunch on La Grange Road with a friend at Bacino’s. Again, the professionals were very accomodating and pleasent. When we started to leave, I had one of my freezing episodes. A young couple at the next table came to my rescue. Without them, I could not have made it to the car, much less get seated. They also insisted we were not causing them any inconvenience. Some seniors bash the young, but my experience has been positive. I’m sorry I did not get any names, but I’m sure those that witness these incidents will recognize them. Sincerely,
Angela Curran CEO, Community Nurse Health Association

• RIVER Continued from page 3 because he found this terrific river with great land and designed the town around the contours of the land,” Buttimer said. “So here we are 140 years later, trimming away the weeds so we can see what he brought us here for.” Some of those weeds include the Buckthorn tree: A thin tree with shiny bark that grows to be about ten feet tall and the number one offender among invasive tree species in the area. Other trees near the water, such as a group of willows whose wispy branches frame the scenic view of the river’s bend, were so covered up with vines and crowded by invasive trees that they were nearly invisible. “You couldn’t see these trees until this morning,” Buttimer said. Foley said the project is just the beginning for the river front. “We’re going to continue developing places like this along the river and looking to find ways to get people down to the river,” Foley said. One of the main obstacles in the way is money, which Foley said the village has little to spare on grand projects. “Since we’re understaffed and the village is underbudgeted, these efforts rely on volunteers like Jerry and his group.” Buttimer said that to the village’s credit, they have supported the project despite not taking actions like appropriating funds. Foley encouraged the public to come forward to the board at their public meetings with any ideas that could revitalize the riverfront. He said some good ideas that had been presented so far included building a canoe ramp. Buttimer said one of the big decisions the village needs to make is what to do with the seldom-used public building by the Village Hall that once held a youth center. He said it was discovered the building was once the dining room for a hotel built in the late 1800s. Buttimer said the structure was likely built there so highclass visitors could gaze out at the river and admire the same views that they are trying to restore. “It was likely the best view in town,” Buttimer said.

BROOKFIELD – An Aurora man attempted to kill himself by being struck by a train in Brookfield around 8:26 p.m. Sept. 25, the Brookfield Police Department reported. According to police, the 52-year-old man was found breathing and conscious while pinned under the train. He was removed by the Brookfield Fire Department and taken to Loyola University Medical Center in Maywood. The train was headed east-
bound from Aurora and was beginning to stop at the Prairie Avenue train station when the train engineer spotted a man sitting on the platform with his feet on the tracks and his head in his hands. The engineer told police he blew the train’s whistle multiple times and the man did not move. He was unable to stop the train before it struck the man and drug him down the tracks. Police for the Burlington Northern Santa Fe (BNSF) rail road talked with the victim before he went into surgery.

Restaurant reviews
Taste serves savory Indian Chinese fusion A restaurant labeling itself a “fusion” experience often means: “We have sushi, General Tso’s Chicken and Pad Thai.” Instead of marrying tastes for a different twist on a dish or cuisine, it’s more about mixing menus to attract a wider variety of patrons. Not so for Taste – Indian Chinese Cuisine in Downers Grove. It takes Chinese dishes and ingredients and tumbles them together with traditional Indian spices and flavors. Hints of cumin, coriander, honey, chili oil and curry hit the spots where chili paste, hoisin sauce and five spice usually are. Even the interior is an interesting blend of the two cultures. Curtains at the doorway open into a spacious room filled with Asian vases, paintings and pictures. In the evening, the lights are dimmed for a mellow ambiance. Despite both cuisines being known for their big, sometimes overwhelming flavors, the fare at Taste is superbly balanced and understated. This type of fusion has been refined in the 100 years since groups of Chinese migrated to India and embraced their new country. My dining partner and I Suburban Life Media photos started with an order of the Shrimp Pepper Salt appetizer.

Grigoletti does it all Junior plays three sports, sings in choir By DAN SANTAROMITA dsantaromita@shawmedia.com RIVERSIDE – Three-sport athletes are becoming more and more rare, but three-sport athletes that also sing in choir are probably even more rare. That’s Riverside Brookfield junior Louis Grigoletti. At 6-foot-4, 280 pounds, Grigoletti has a prototypical linemen’s body, but also uses his big frame to project a booming voice for the Madrigals singing group. In addition to being a junior captain on the Bulldog football team this fall, Grigoletti was a sectional qualifying wrestler and an all-conference discus thrower last year. Despite RB’s current 0-5 record, Grigoletti has been a strong leader for the team. His teammates voted him captain despite not being a senior. “Bottom line, he’s a good person,” RB coach Brendan Curtin said. “He’s one of those guys that leads by example. He doesn’t say much, but the guys listen when he does.” Grigoletti comes from a family with four brothers, all of which played football from a young age. The oldest brother, Mark, was a tight end and graduated in 2013. Louis is the second-oldest and Nick is a freshman linemen. The youngest, Vincent, is an eighth-grader that recently had to drop the sport. Vincent had a relapse of cancer and was told he could no longer play sports. When Curtin heard, he suggested that Vincent should get the last carry of RB’s preseason scrimmage. “I thought it was a great idea so we had him do it,” Louis Grigoletti said. “It’s heartbreaking that he can’t play anymore, but I’m just thankful that coach Curtin let him do that. “I know Vincent loved it. He’s a Bulldog like us.”
Week 5 result: Ridgewood 20, Riverside Brookfield 14 RB leaders Ryan Swift: 150 passing yards, TD Lewis Rogers: 5 rec., 85 yards, TD Dean Zigulich: 5 rec., 65 yards Vincent remains active and is in choir and band at school, something Louis and Vincent share in common. Louis dropped band after his freshman year, but still considers himself a musician at heart. Wrestling and track benefit him physically to keep him focused on a year-round training schedule, but being in the Madrigals has helped him refresh from the physical grind. “It kind of helps me be well-rounded and keeps my mind off stuff,” he said. “I think it’s a good stress relief and I think it’s a good thing to do.” While conflicts between his three sports and choir are rare, the various activities do keep him busy. Football remains his top priority, though. Grigoletti has started to receive info from schools about playing in college and his football resume to show off to schools he already is extensive for a junior. He joined the varsity team during the second game of his freshman year and held his own by his own account. “I didn’t really have much of an idea of how big of a deal it was or how big it was going to be,” Grigoletti said. “I just kind of went in there and did what I could for them. “It definitely got me ready for what I’ve been experiencing sophomore year and this year.” Grigoletti now is in his third year as a varsity starter and is said he is hoping the Bulldogs can pick up their first win of the season in the homecoming game against Glenbard South on Friday.

WEEKEND WATCH Glenbard South at Riverside Brookfield
Lyons Township at Hinsdale Central When: 12 p.m. Saturday Where: 5500 S. Grant St., Hinsdale Records: Lyons Township 2-3 (1-1 WSS), Hinsdale Central 3-2 (2-1 WSS) Outlook: The Lions picked up a crucial win over Downers Grove North last week, but have another big West Suburban Silver game this week at rival Hinsdale Central. Like the Trojans, the Red Devils feature a run-heavy offense thanks to injuries at quarterback and didn’t complete any passes in Saturday’s loss at Glenbard West.
DOWNERS GROVE – With its back against the wall, Lyons Township’s defense played its best game of the season on Friday. Needing to beat Downers Grove North to seemingly keep their playoff hopes alive, the Lions’ defense – which had surrendered a combined 179 points in the first four games of the season – forced two first-half turnovers and came up with multiple fourth down stops en route to a 17-10 victory. Entering the contest allowing an average of 40.5 points per game, Lyons (2-3, 1-1 West Suburban Silver) pitched a shutout through three quarters, and head coach Kurt Weinberg applauded his team’s most complete effort of the season. “Until this point, we hadn’t played to our full potential,” Weinberg said. “Tonight, our defense stepped up and played really well. They were physical and came out with a lot of confidence; it was a big step in the right direction.” The two first-quarter turnovers – an interception and a fumble recovery – paved the way for the Lions’ offense. After going three-and-out on their first two offensive possessions, Lions quarterback Tom Fiedler and the receiving corps caught fire. Fiedler completed 15-of-19 passes for 163 yards and a touchdown in the

Lyons Township junior quarterback Tom Fiedler throws a pass down the middle of the field during the Lions’ game at Downers Grove North on Friday. first half. He finished the game with 221 passing yards and two scores. “Tommy had a great game,” Weinberg said. “He has tremendous upside and tonight he managed the offense well and looked comfortable in the
pocket.” Fielder said the offense had to get on track after a disappointing showing the week before. “After the game against Glenbard West, the offense was looking for a bounceback
performance,” Fiedler said. “I just tried to relax, stay in the pocket as long as I could and make the plays that I know I am capable of making.” To their credit, the Trojans’ secondary did not give up the deep strike in the first half. Fiedler was content with getting the ball in the hands of his playmakers, connecting on out-routes, slants and checkdowns and gobbling up small chunks of yards. When the big play opened up in the second half, Fiedler and the Lions’ offense pounced on the opportunity. With the score 10-3 in the fourth quarter, Lyons faced a crucial third down near midfield. Scrambling out of the pocket, Fiedler looked off his first option then found receiver Marcell Kellum streaking down the left sideline for a 47yard score. Kellum played one of the best games of his career, hauling in 9 catches for 152 yards and a touchdown. Next, Lyons will face Hinsdale Central on Saturday, and Fiedler believes the key to success is hard work and continued improvement.

Saints will be toughest foe Bears face Hub Arkush
Hey, folks, if you didn’t want to be up all week with nightmares, you probably shouldn’t have watched the Saints dismantle the previously undefeated Miami Dolphins on Monday night to remain one of only two undefeated teams in the NFC. They are 4-0, along with the Seahawks. New Orleans has been one of the top offenses in the NFL since it won the Super Bowl in 2009, but has struggled mightily on defense in recent seasons. The Saints also had to overcome the stain of Bountygate in 2012 and play the entire season without head coach Sean Payton. But Payton is back this season, and he brought new defensive coordinator Rob Ryan with him. Suddenly, the Saints are looking like they could be
the most complete team in the NFC. Along with Jets head coach Rex Ryan, Rob is one of the twin sons of legendary Bears defensive coordinator Buddy Ryan. While Rob doesn’t run Dad’s “46,” he does run an attacking, blitzing 3-4 defense that many thought the Saints didn’t have the personnel to play. So far, these Saints are proving everybody wrong. But it still all starts and usually ends in New Orleans with the NFL’s most productive offense, led by All-Pro quarterback Drew Brees, who has thrown for more than 5,000 yards each of the past two seasons and is on pace to get there again this year. Brees gets rid of the ball as quickly as any quarterback in the league, and Payton and he seem to be able to read each other’s minds. Brees’ one foible is that he will throw the occasional interception. As quarterbacks around the league have learned, the Bears have a habit of turning those into six points. The ground game is spread fairly evenly among Pierre Thomas, Dar-
ren Sproles and Mark Ingram, with Thomas the most productive of the three. He and Sproles are as likely to be used as receivers as ball carriers. Sproles averages more than 10 yards per catch in the passing game, and is the most dangerous third-down back in the league. The Saints’ offensive line seems to shed Pro Bowlers – Carl Nicks to Tampa two years ago and Jermon Bushrod to the Bears this year – without losing too much in effectiveness. Until Rob Gronkowski gets back for the Patriots and possibly even after, Jimmy Graham is the best receiving tight end in football, and a matchup nightmare for every safety and linebacker in the league. He is Brees’ go-to guy on third down and in the red zone, and virtually unstoppable in man-toman coverage. Marques Colston is as dependable as any wide receiver in football, and Lance Moore, Nick Toon and Robert Meachem provide plenty of depth. The surprise is on defense, where
the Saints have been among the best in the league. While Ryan came to the Saints with a great reputation as a 3-4 coach, it was assumed the Saints didn’t have the personnel to play it. But Cameron Jordan, drafted in the first round out of California three years ago to play end in the 4–3, has proved a natural at the five technique and already has three sacks. Junior Galette also has been a force at one of the outside rush linebacker spots, and David Hawthorne and Curtis Lofton are tackling machines as the inside linebackers. Rookie first round safety Kenny Vacarro is an early front-runner for defensive rookie of the year, and fellow defensive backs Malcolm Jenkins, Jabari Greer and Keenan Lewis are playing aggressive football and are extremely productive. It is not impossible to believe the Bears were looking ahead just a bit last week in Detroit. This Saints team definitely will be the Bears’ toughest and most telling test of the season.

10. Trent Richardson (35)
CJ Spiller and Chris Johnson, Charles is an atypical fantasy horse in that he needs space to be effective. Unlike Spiller and Johnson, Charles is getting the space he needs. 7. Reggie Bush (55 in three weeks) – Another back that needs space, Bush has produced in all three of his starts. Of course, injuries are a real concern. 8. Marshawn Lynch (58) – Old-school workhorse has had two good weeks and two disappointing weeks. 9. Matt Forte (63) – Like Bush and Charles, he is a dual threat. He has been pret-
– The lowest scorer to make our top 20, Richardson should start to pick up steam on his new club. An argument could be made to move him up into the top five or six. 11. Jimmy Graham (81) – A tight end at #11? The guy is unstoppable.
12. Demaryius Thomas (64) – The best receiver on the league’s best offense is the first wideout off the board. The next tier of quarterbacks is Matthew Stafford (81), Tom Brady (64) and Matt Ryan (83). The pre-draft thinking involved RG III, Colin Kaepernick and Russell Wilson stepping up as elite quarterbacks, creating a glut of talent at that position. Consequently – the thinking went – you should focus early picks on dependable running backs
like Spiller, Ray Rice, Chris Johnson and Doug Martin. As so often happens, the plan did not survive first contact with the enemy. Spiller, who went second overall in many drafts, has been downright awful. Johnson and Rice haven’t been much better. Griffin, Kaepernick and Wilson have had some moments, but they’re not even close to sniffing the production of the top three quarterbacks. If you have Manning, Brees or Rodgers (especially in a 12-team league) chances are you’re already competitive. Throw in a few other decent players and you’re a contender. And if you drafted Spiller and Chris Johnson with your first two picks? Well, it’s never too early to get a start on those leaves that are piling up in your backyard.

Imagine, if you will, a world in which we could scrap the first four weeks of the fantasy season and start anew. Now, that might not sound great if you’re 3-1 or 4-0, but if you’re 0-4 or 1-3, a fresh start probably seems like a great idea. In August, no one was predicting that Peyton Manning would be averaging more than 30 points a game, and no one expected Trent Richardson to be playing for the Colts. Several “can’t-miss” first-round running backs did miss, and they missed like a Jay Cutler cross-body pass thrown off his back foot. The top 12 players, if the draft were held today (fantasy points in parentheses): 1. Adrian Peterson (81) – No one could blame you if you took manning instead, but
given the relative value of the next running back you’d have a chance to draft, you’d have to consider AP. 2. Peyton Manning (122) – Forget the notion that the first round has to feature running backs, running backs and more running backs. Manning is off to an unbelievable start and – given the plethora of targets in Denver – it’s hard to imagine that his success won’t continue. 3. LeSean McCoy (70) – The read option may not revolutionize the NFL, but it will undoubtedly lead to some more long runs. 4. Drew Brees (100) – Brees is currently fantasy’s second-leading scorer, averaging 25 per game. 5. Aaron Rodgers (73 in three weeks) – There is a fairly significant drop-off at quarterback after Manning, Brees and Rodgers. 6. Jamaal Charles (71) – Like

LT, Fenwick swimmers in mix for state By DAN SANTAROMITA dsantaromita@shawmedia.com The two most important swim meets of the season are the sectionals to determine which swimmers advance to state, and the state meet itself. But the regular season is crucial for building endurance, and teams like Lyons Township, Riverside Brookfield and Fenwick hope to be competitive as the regular season continues to unfold.
Lyons Township Coach: Kurt Johns Top swimmers • Liz Murphy, Sr. 100 breast, relays • Lauren Rosenberger, Sr.
200 free, 500 free, relays • Mackenna Dunn, so. 50 free, 100 free, relays • Kristen Young, Jr. 100 fly, relays • Kelly Ryser, Jr. diving • Kimmy Vitek, Jr. diving Outlook: Despite the loss of multiple key seniors, Lyons Township is again hoping to win conference and the sectional meet. LT beat rival Hinsdale Central 105-81 on Thursday to take a key step in winning the West Suburban Silver. Downers Grove North should be the other top competition in the conference. Previously, the Lions had dropped duals to strong teams in Naperville North and New Trier. With all the personnel
losses, coach Kurt Johns wasn’t sure what his team would look like – and he’s still not entirely clear on that. A talented freshmen class has added a lot of depth to a roster that already had six state returners. “That’s a good top core and then we got a whole other group of girls stepping up,” Johns said. “It will be interesting between some of our seniors.” Both divers, juniors Kelly Ryser and Kimmy Vitek are back after qualifying for state. Ryser is already a two-time state qualifier. Liz Murphy, Kristen Young and Mackenna Dunn return from relays that scored at state last year. Lauren Rosenberger
also qualified in the 200- and 500-yard freestyle races.
Riverside Brookfield Coach: Heather Mathis Top swimmers • Sydney Veon, Sr. 100 free, 100 breaststroke, relays • Nicole Capone, Jr. 50 free • Keri Burke, So. 100 backstroke, relays • Dana Callanan, Sr. 50 free, 200 IM, relays Outlook: Senior Sydney Veon is the team’s lone state returner after making it in the 100-yard breaststroke. Veon is the school record holder in the event and also swam her way onto the school’s top-10 list in the 100 freestyle with a lifetime best
early this season. In addition to Veon, seniors Dana Callanan, junior Nicole Capone and sophomore Keri Burke are top varsity returners. In early meets so far this season, the Bulldogs placed eighth at Hinsdale South, fourth in their own eight-team invite and eighth at the York Invitational on Saturday.

• Kierston Farley-Sepe, So. 100 fly, 100 back, relays Outlook: The Friars are hoping they can close the ninepoint gap between them and New Trier that decided the state title last year. Three of the five swimmers that made individual event finals at state are back, including Mimi Schneider, who is the top returner in the state in the 100-yard butterfly. Sophomore Kierston Farley-Sepe was just behind her by placing third in that race last year and was fourth in the 100 backstroke. Paulina Kaminski is also the top returner in the 100 breaststroke after placing third behind two seniors. Those top tier swimmers will be aided by senior relay returners in Colleen Barron and Maggie Sheean. The Friars showed their speed in the pool by winning the Lady Friars Invite against the likes of Loyola, St. Charles North and Sandburg on Saturday.
Morton Coach: Scott Gourley Top swimmers
Stephanie Torres, Jr. 100 fly, 200 IM, relays Crystal Mariscal, Jr. freestyle, relays Nadia Pantaleon, Jr. 100 backstroke, relays Outlook: Morton coach Scott Gourley doesn’t expect a state qualifier this year, but the Mustang swimmers are pushing for school records. Junior Stephanie Torres already holds the frosh/ soph school record in the 100yard butterfly and is hoping to break the varsity record before she graduates. Fellow juniors Crystal Mariscal and Nadia Pantaleon will also be top swimmers for the team. “We’re a young team,” Gourley said. “We have a lot of seniors who graduated last year so these kids are being counted on to fill in those shoes.” Gourley said the Mustang swimmers are counted on to be jack-of-all-trade type swimmers so they move around events depending on how they can best score at meets. Mariscal is an example of that, racing in the 100, 200 and 500 freestyle races depending on the meet.

The mother and son team make up Higgins Glass Studio, 33 E. Quincy, entrusted to the Wimmers to carry on the art crafted by their long time mentors, Fran and Michael Higgins, who began the company in 1948. Louise and Jonathan agree that it was Fran’s ideas and Michael’s energy and ingenuity that led these two huge talents to start their work out if their Chicago apartment in 1948. Over the years their art sold in such major retailers as Marshall Field’s, Georg Jensen and Bullocks Wilshire, the very high end store in the California based department store chain. In 1966, the Higgins decided to return to private studio work and set up their offices in Riverside. The website notes that “here they were free to set their own goals, meet their own standards and design in the direction their hearts and minds led them.” There’s a lot of history in Higgins, and the Wimmers are proud of their work and the company.
