For the first time in Chicago history, a runoff election will determine who will be the city’s next mayor.
Incumbent Mayor Rahm Emanuel had won 45 percent of the vote late Tuesday night, falling short of
the 50 percent (plus one) of the vote needed for victory and a second term as mayor.
Jesus “Chuy” Garcia garnered about 34 percent of

Oak Lawn Police seek home invasion suspect
By Dermot Connolly
Oak Lawn Police are investigating a
Feb. 19 home invasion in which a man
broke through a front door in the 9000
block of 51st Avenue and physically assaulted an 86-year-old woman at 1:30
a.m.
According to Division Chief Randy Palmer, the victim said she heard a
loud noise and found that the door was
damaged, and then heard another noise
as the unidentified man forced his way
in to the residence. The man physically
assaulted her and took several items before fleeing.
The woman, who was unable to call
police for an hour after the crime, was

Many observers expected the aldermanic elections in the 18th, 22nd and
23rd wards to be tight races, since all
three incumbents were vying for re-election with multiple opponents in redrawn
wards.
But as it turned out, when the votes
were counted on Tuesday, only Ald. Lona
Lane (18th) was forced into an April 7
runoff with Derrick Curtis, a former ally
and the current Democratic ward committeeman.
Curtis, who is also the ward superintendent, actually bested Lane with 3,618
votes (30.4 percent) to 3,557 (29.9 percent) for Lane, according to unofficial
results. The remaining two candidates
who fell short were Chuks Onyezia with
2,096 (17.6 percent) and Michael Davis
1,992 (16.7 percent). They were both also
defeated by Lane in the 2011 election.
Curtis was pleased with the result, saying it showed how low Lane’s popularity
is in the ward, despite getting support
from Mayor Rahm Emanuel, who will
be in a mayoral election runoff with JeAldermanic

Lane said she is looking forward to

Goodbye February cold (and maybe winter)
OMG, can you believe it’s Friday, Feb. 27? It was a
cold, cruel month but I think it went by pretty fast. I am
so looking forward to spring and some nice weather so
Timmy and I can go on some adventures.
I get so much mail delivered to my house that
belongs to other people. Sometimes the numbers are
right and the street is wrong and other times it makes
absolutely no sense how I got it. It makes me wonder
how much of my mail goes elsewhere.
I try to take the errant mail back if I can. If not, I
leave it for the mailman to return.
For 24 hours, 24 parishes in Chicago will hold
confessions, during what is called the Festival of Forgiveness. Confessions at St. Clare de Montefalco, 5443
S. Washtenaw, will be at 7 p.m. today (Friday, Feb. 27)
and 5 p.m. Saturday, Feb. 28.
Some of the other parishes close by that will be
participating are Blessed Sacrament, 3745 S. Paulina;
St. Bruno, 4751 S. Harding; St. Daniel the Prophet,
5300 S. Natoma; and Our Lady of the Snows, 4810 S.
Leamington. All the churches may not be able to stay
open for 24 hours so I would check with the individual
parish for times.
The Chicago Flower and Garden Show dates back
to 1847. This year it’s at Navy Pier. It runs from March
14 to March 22. There will be gardening and cooking
demos, floral artwork and displays by local landscapers

on March 19. I figured it’s a nice way to celebrate St.

A couple of years ago my friend Nancy and I went
on an adventure visiting old churches. Holy Family was
on our list. The caretaker would not let us in but we did
get to see the beautiful garden. It’s the second-oldest
church and the first Jesuit parish of Chicago.
According to legend, when the Chicago Fire started
in October of 1871, it was heading right for the church.
It is believed that the Rev. Arnold Damen invoked Our
Lady of Perpetual Help to save the church. He promised to light seven candles in front of Our Lady’s statue
if the church survived. All of a sudden the wind shifted
and the church was spared.
He lit the seven candles and seven electric candles
burn to this day in front of Our Lady’s shrine at the
east end of the church. I am still determined to visit.
Happy Birthday wishes are sent to my friend Ray
Munoz! Have a wonderful day and a terrific year!

We need to repair
outrageous public
pension system
Gov. Bruce Rauner unveiled a budget that seems
to anger everyone, which means he’s doing the right
thing because there is no way to cut $2 billion from
the state’s bloated spending without making drastic
cuts and forcing agencies to find ways to live within
reasonable budgets the public can afford to pay.
The most egregious area of wasteful public spending is the outrageous and totally unjustified pensions
that governments have bestowed to employees in
public education, healthcare and government.
I don’t care that the highest-paid public pensioner
is Tapas Das Gupta, a brilliant doctor. He doesn’t deserve a $450,000-a-year pension paid for by taxpayers.
Gupta is just the tip of an iceberg of fiscal irresponsibility driven by greed, favoritism and clout. How
else do you explain these outrageous public taxpayer-paid totals?
More than 10,000 people today earn more than
$100,000 a year in public pensions. Most are employed by our schools but many worked for public
hospitals and governments.
Defenders argue pension recipients paid into their
pensions during the sometimes brief time they worked
at their jobs. But that is a distortion. Gupta will receive
more than $10 million during the life of his pension.
Did he even contribute even half of that? No, not according to public records. Gupta paid 9 percent of what
he is expected to receive in payouts. In fact, most recipients will have “contributed” (from government wages)
an average of under 8 percent of what they will reap!
Anyone who earns more than $300,000 doesn’t
deserve a public pension. They should invest their
own money in their own 401K. But that’s exactly the
reason why these folks didn’t do that, because that
can be risky. Under the state system, the taxpayers are
required to keep paying at the outrageously high rate
no matter what happens in the economy.
Rauner suggests the pension system be changed
moving forward, meaning people like Gupta and the
hundreds of others who are being paid pensions greater than $100,000 a year don’t have to worry.
But that’s wrong. Pension reform should be retroactive. There is no way anyone should be paid more than
$100,000 a year in a pension from a government job,
regardless of what you did and what you were paid, or
more than double what they paid into the system.
Anyone who receives a public pension greater than
$100,000 should be banned from working in another public job. If they work in private business, they
shouldn’t be allowed to collect their pension.
Public service pensions should not be a get-rich
scheme to guarantee a luxurious after-life.
Rauner should crack down. He already knows
people will be angry with him, but who cares? Does
he worry about the 10,000 pensioners or the 13 million
residents of Illinois? Do what’s right!
Public pensions should be capped at $100,000. And,
no one should collect a pension until they reach the
age of 70.
That should apply to those who now collect outrageous and unjustified pensions. If they don’t like it, let
government give them a “buyout” and return the sums
they invested.
Finally, we need real-time data published and available to the public on ALL pensions so the public can
see the truth about how some of our public officials
have profited off of the taxpayers’ backs. That’s not
the case.

Runoffs slated in 15th, 16th wards
Lopez to face Yanez; Foulkes will be challenged by Coleman
By Dermot Connolly
The aldermanic election results in the 15th,
16th and 17th wards were
going to bring changes
in leadership, no matter
who won, because they
were all open seats. And
runoffs are still needed in
two of the wards to decide
the winners.
In the 15th Ward, incumbent Toni Foulkes
stepped down to run in
the neighboring 16th
Ward, leaving the field
wide open for candidates
Adolfo Mondragon, Raymond Lopez, Eddie Daniels, Otis Davis Jr. and
Raul Reyes.
Lopez, probably the
most well-known because
he is the 15th Ward Democratic committeeman,
came out on top, with
2,036 votes (47 percent),
according to unofficial
results from the Chicago
Board of Elections.

garner more than 50 percent, he will have to face
the second-place finisher, Rafael Yanez, a Chicago police officer who
received 992 votes (23
percent). They were followed by Davis with 450
(10.4 percent); Daniels,
295 (6.8 percent); Mondragon, 279 (6.5 percent);
and Reyes with 274 (6.3
percent).
During the campaign,
Lopez stressed his experience working in the
ward and getting things
done for constituents,
while Yanez pointed out
that he also is familiar with the community
through his work as a
police officer and leading safety programs at
schools.
Mondragon’s
experience as a civil
rights attorney with degrees from Yale University and the University of
Chicago evidently didn’t
resonate with voters.
Foulkes came out on
top in the 16th Ward with
2,421 (43.3 percent). She
said she decided to run
there because 40 percent
of the old 15th Ward was
remapped into the 16th.
But she will have to face
the second-place finisher,
Stephanie Coleman, in a
runoff.
Coleman, a nonprofit
manager who garnered
1,952 votes (34.9 percent),
is the daughter of former
16th Ward Ald. Shirley
Coleman, who was unseated by JoAnn Thompson in 2007. Thompson
was seeking re-election
when she died Feb. 9 following an illness. The
others in the race were
Jose Garcia, who received
802 votes (14.3 percent),
and Cynthia Lomax, with
336 (6.0 percent). Thompson’s name remained on
the ballot and she received
82 votes (1.5 percent).
In the 17th Ward, there
was also an open seat
because Ald. Latasha
Thomas decided to retire
after 15 years in office.
The winner in the race
to succeed her was David
H. Moore, who received
4,413 votes (53.2 percent),
eliminating the need for a
runoff. Coming in second
was Glenda Franklin with
3,000 votes (36.1 percent).
Franklin was backed by
the Rev. Michael Pfleger,
the popular pastor of St.
Sabina Church, where
she used to work. In third
place was the Rev. James
Dukes, who tallied 887
(10.7 percent).
Moore grew up in the
Robert Taylor Homes,
and earned two degrees
from Western Illinois and
a master’s degree from
Loyola University. Formerly an accountant with
several Fortune 500 companies, and the Chicago
Department of Aviation
and CHA, Moore currently is assistant to the commissioner of the Cook
County Board of Review,
where he coordinates the
Faith-based Community
Initiative.
He said his first priority
as alderman would be to
“tackle traditionally neglected areas in the 17th
Ward, from severe unemployment and school closings, foreclosed homes
and abandoned buildings,
to street and sidewalk improvements and tree trimming.”

Crackdown on sexual predators at amusement parks urged
State Rep. Silvana Tabares (D-21st)
is working to pass legislation requiring amusement parks to maintain strict
regulations on hiring policies to better
protect children from convicted sexual
offenders.
“Right now, a loophole exists in state
law allowing convicted sexual predators
to work at amusement parks, fairs and
carnivals,” Tabares said. “We need to
close that loophole and reinforce our laws
to keep sexual offenders away from our
children, especially in places where so
many children and families are present
in large crowds.”
Currently, convicted sex offenders are
prohibited from working as ride oper-
ators at amusement parks and
ed from knowingly performing
carnivals, and amusement park
tasks and being associated or
and carnival owners are reemployed with any amusement
park, carnival or fair.

fled on foot when they heard a witness hollering at
them, the victim added.
The victim went home without reporting the crime.
The next morning, a neighbor drove him to Holy Cross
Hospital, where he was found to have several broken
ribs and a ruptured spleen before being transferred to
Mount Sinai Hospital.

friends inside as guests.

Giuliani’s ‘love’ of U.S.
smacks of hypocrisy
TV meteorologists have been discussing in great
detail with graphs and depictions of the path of wind
currents to explain the rush of cold air that has had a
tight grip on most of the nation the past week.
We know it’s cold here. All you have to do is step
outside. Of course, frigid temperatures in Minnesota and
upper Michigan are not that uncommon during this time
of year. Residents in Boston are passing the time of day
by jumping out of homes into over 60 inches of snow
and recording their efforts on YouTube.
Maybe that’s the explanation for why some people
are making stupid comments. Perhaps former New York
City Mayor Rudy Giuliani is suffering from frostbite of
the brain.
If you did not catch it, Giuliani, a Republican, said
that President Obama does not love America. He made
these comments recently at a private dinner for fellow
Republican Scott Walker, the Wisconsin governor who
is considering a run for president.
“I know this is a horrible thing to say, but I do not
believe that the president loves America,” Giuliani was
quoted as saying. “He doesn’t love you. And he doesn’t
love me. He wasn’t brought up the way you were
brought up and I was brought up through love of this
country.”
Giuliani has since taken plenty of heat, and deservedly so. Giuliani was right in the first sentence of his
comments on Obama. It is a horrible thing to say. More
specifically, it was just stupid.
How do you respond to such inane lunacy? First of
all, how does Giuliani know that Obama does not love
his country? Perhaps Obama doesn’t come off stern
enough or demand we invade every country we disagree
with. I guess Giuliani, who I last saw at the 40th anniversary of “Saturday Night Live,” thinks he loves his
country more. Based on what, I don’t know.
Hey, even John McCain, the Republican senator
from Arizona, told a crowd that suggested Obama was
not patriotic enough that the future president is a proud
American who loves his family and country. McCain
said this during his campaign against Obama for president in 2007.
But Giuliani thinks he apparently has more love for
the U.S. than Obama. Giuliani does seem to want to
share the love. He has been married three times. He was
dating his third wife while still married to his second.
Apparently, you can be patriotic and an adulterer, too.
Of course, a lot of great men have been far from
perfect. Giuliani is not that much different from other
successful and ambitious men. If they work for the
common good, many of us are likely to overlook their
transgressions.
After all, Giuliani is a patriot. He cares about and
loves this country. I know this because he has repeated
this mantra many times. Giuliani is like some people
who think questioning our past mistakes, like Obama
has, is wrong. It shows weakness in his eyes.
So, with his love of country and the need to wrap
himself up in the American flag, you would assume
that Giuliani has served his nation. Well, guess again.
Giuliani received at least a half a dozen deferments to
stay out of the Vietnam War. He even reportedly got a
federal judge he was clerking for to write a letter creating a special exemption for him.
The Vietnam War was a divisive time for our country.
Many Americans began questioning our involvement in
that conflict. That does not make those people any less
patriotic than anyone else.
But in the case of Giuliani, it appears he tried to
wimp out through the back door during the Vietnam
War. I would respect him more if he spoke out against
the war. But now he tries to pass himself off as a patriot
who spends most of his time in limousines and at expensive luncheons.
March is approaching and maybe the cold weather
will fade away. Maybe Giuliani’s tongue will also thaw
out.

St. Symphorosa staff welcomes St. Rene
By Joe Boyle
Administrators, faculty and parishioners of St.
Symphorosa School rolled out the red carpet for families and their children from St. Rene School during a
VIP night on Feb. 19.
St. Rene School, 6340 S. England Ave., is one of
nine Chicago-area Catholic schools scheduled to close
in June. The other local facility set to close is St. Turibius, 4120 W. 57th St.
Parents and community leaders at St. Rene said they
were initially stunned last fall when they heard the
school was closing. A steering committee was formed
in an effort to keep St. Rene open.
Despite those efforts, the ruling by former Cardinal
Francis George was upheld by his successor, Archbishop
Blase Cupich. St. Rene parents, students and parishioners
have reluctantly accepted their fate. But many of those St.
Rene supporters who attended the VIP (Very Important
Parents) Night still had a bitter taste in their mouths.
Ken Hilliard, the business manager at St. Symphorosa School, 6125 S. Austin Ave., Chicago, addressed
those concerns with St. Rene parents and said their
children would be more than welcome at the neighboring Clearing school.
“There is a new initiative at the school,” said Hilliard, who became the business manager in August.
“We are growing and the school has a vision.”
Hilliard thanked the Rev. Ted Bojcuk, pastor at St.
Sym’s, for his willingness to have the school become
more proactive. Hilliard assured the St. Rene families
that St. Symphorosa is going to upgrade its curriculum
and add a foreign language during school hours.

“We know that St. Rene families have some decisions to make,” Hilliard said. “But I can tell you that
we would be more than happy to have all St. Rene students come here. We have the room.”
Margaret Kowalczyk, principal at St. Symphorosa, told St. Rene families that they emphasize a
well-rounded education that is faith-based.
“We want our students to have a sense of community
and to make them more independent,” said Kowalczyk.
The principal added that the school is completely wireless. A variety of programs are offered after
school, including chess, engineering, Spanish and the
Young Rembrandts for young artists.
Anita Cummings, a longtime Clearing resident
whose three children attended St. Rene, asked Hilliard
if St. Symphorosa will continue to exist in the future.
“I ask that because many parents at St. Rene thought
our school was going to stay open,” said Cummings.
“They don’t want to go through this again in the next
few years.”
Hilliard said he understands her concerns and said
that future is bring at St. Symphorosa, which currently
has an enrollment of 220.
Nancy Loduca, who has been teaching at St. Symphorosa since 1987 and is currently the assistant principal, said the school has “a family atmosphere, that’s
what everybody will tell you. I just love it here.”
Dawn Gasior, the current kindergarten teacher at St.
Sym’s, has been at the school since 1986. A graduate
of St. Symphorosa, Gasior said the school stresses academics and cares for the students.
“It’s wonderful. We work with the kids so that they
become more well-rounded,” said Gasior. “We also
have computers, gym programs and the kids attend
Mass every Friday morning.”
St. Sym’s does have its critics. In a letter sent to the
News-Herald and signed “St. Symphorosa Concerned
and Worried Parents,” the writer complains about St.
Sym’s being a “cliquish school” that focuses on sports
instead of academics.
Hilliard has heard about these complaints and repeatedly states that a new day has come to St. Symphorosa.
While Kowalczyk said that nine students from St.
Rene have signed up at St. Symphorosa, other Catholic
schools are also recruiting for this fall.
The staff at St. Albert the Great School, 5555 W.
State Road, Burbank, has stated that they would accept
St. Rene students.
St. Cletus Elementary School, 700 W. 55th St., La
Grange, has also mentioned that they would accept St.
Rene students. One St. Rene parent at the VIP Night
said St. Cletus has a solid after school program.

First, do no harm
T
he fallout from Gov. Bruce Rauner’s ill-conceived
budget proposal is starting to trickle in.
More than 12,000 jobs in the heath care sector alone
would be lost; thousands more jobs would be eliminated in
higher education and the transportation sectors; municipal
governments around the state would also be forced to cut
essential services.
Meantime, a deal to plug a $1.2 billion hole in Illinois’
current budget is no longer imminent, the president of the
state Senate said last week, contradicting assertions from the
governor and House Speaker.
Senate President John Cullerton (D-Chicago) told the
media last week that the fiscal year 2016 budget unveiled by
Rauner complicates negotiations over the budget gap in fiscal 2015, which ends June 30. An impasse could potentially
threaten cutoff of operating funds for child care, prisons and
other state institutions, he added.
The Republican governor’s $32 billion general budget for
fiscal 2016 beginning July 1, aims to chop $6.6 billion from
healthcare, higher education, local government revenues,
mass transit and other areas. It raises no new revenue and
controversial pension changes account for $2.2 billion of the
savings.
“Because it’s slashing programs and no revenue, I think
that’s going to make it difficult for us to reach an agreement”
on the 2015 budget gap, said Cullerton.
In his budget address, Rauner said a resolution for 2015
was “literally days away.” House Speaker Michael J.
Madigan, also a Chicago Democrat, said after the speech he
expected a deal “in a matter of days.”
But the Senate leader said the current budget problem
needed to be solved before the fiscal year ended.
As for Rauner’s first full-year budget, we think the new
governor made bad choices. His spending document would
do more harm to the state’s business climate than any
amount of poaching the state of Indiana has been able to
achieve to date.
For example, in Rauner’s budget, the Illinois Hospital
Association estimated that proposed Medicaid cuts of $1.47
billion would result in 12,591 fewer jobs and $1.74 billion in
less economic activity around the state.
The University of Illinois, the largest provider of trained
engineers to the Chicago area, estimated Rauner’s budget
would reduce about $209 million in public funding per year.
The Chicago Transit Authority, which shuttles more people to and from work than any other entity in the state, faces
cuts of $133 million.
Finally, the governor’s proposed cuts of $624 million
coupled with property tax caps, would result in thousands
more layoffs.
We are very sympathetic to the problems Gov. Rauner
inherited. It’s not Rauner’s fault that the state’s current budget is $1.6 billion out of balance and that long-term pension
liabilities are running at $105 billion in the red.
But there are better ideas and worse ideas for the governor
to embrace. Shifting the cost of health care to the private
sector; cutting the supply of engineers to big cities; and making it harder for people to commute to and from work is not
a winning set of ideas. Nor is choking both services and new
revenue sources to local governments.
As we have stated, the better ideas are those proposed by
the Civic Federation of Chicago earlier in the month.
The Civic Federation would restrict new state spending
to no more than 2 percent a year and would eliminate tax
exemptions for food and drugs, expand fees on under-taxed
business services and modestly restore a fraction of the
lapsed income tax surcharge. Bills would be paid and budgets would be in balance within five years.
The Civic Federation’s choices are preferable to Rauner’s
choices because they would inflict far less harm to the state’s
business climate, and would be much less harsh on the most
vulnerable in our midst.
Illinois taxpayers deserve nothing less.
Letter to the Editor
American business community
needs to speak out on injustice
The film “Selma” calls us to consider where we
stand today and what we are doing as individuals
and communities about racial justice.
In the past few months a rainbow of people
has taken to protesting in cities throughout the
country. Racial injustice brought to light by failures of grand juries to indict white police officers
after the deaths of unarmed black men is moving
citizens of all backgrounds to action.
The media feature voices of passionate, concerned black, brown and white people, students
and, of course politicians. We see the arts community in solidarity with the movement. Athletes
and entire sports teams put their careers on the
line to speak up.
But where are the voices of the business community?
As a business person, I am deeply disturbed
by the silence of my peers. Is the travesty of
justice and police corruption, lack of respect
and utter disregard for human dignity not our
concern? Many of us are already leaders in our
communities, working hard to strengthen local
and regional economies. Most are good people
running responsible businesses. But what does
our silence say?
Silence is a signal of acceptance. Silence is
seen as an endorsement of the status quo. Silence
is not good for business.
More and more businesses owners are turning
business into a force for good. We recognize
the interconnected and circular nature of our
economy. If we take care of our employees, they
take care of us. If we pay a living wage, then our
community has purchasing power that ultimately
benefits our business.
Ensuring just policing and a fair justice system
are part of the same value proposition. Many police officers and grand juries already act this way.
But when they lose sight of these principles, it’s
bad for residents, bad for the police themselves,
and bad for the community.
It gets in the way of the mutual trust and
respect we need in order to get along with each
other and do business with one another.
It doesn’t help our employees bring their best
self to work if they live in constant fear that they
or their children or partner will be singled out for
state-sanctioned violence and an unfair justice
system for no reason other than the color of their
skin.
I run a small business in Nashville, Tenn. I
do everything I can to run a fair and just workplace, one in which everyone is judged according
to their contribution and not how they look. I
believe my workplace is better off because of this
commitment. I serve on the board of a national
business organization, the American Sustainable
Business Council, which seeks to bring these
principles of justice and opportunity to the economy as a whole.
As business owners, we have a special obligation to stand up at times like these. It’s time to
stop holding our collective breath.
We need to push for the course corrections necessary to stop racial injustice. We must demand
change that will help create resilient communities
in which everyone can succeed and thrive.
We should call our local, state and federal officials and tell them we want to see solutions. We
should engage with others in our communities,
such as faith leaders and social service agencies,
to push for change. And we should start by letting
our employees know that we are committed to
making a difference.
We also should support organizations that are
working to uplift black and brown men and women. Even better: Employ them, train them and,
most important, stand behind them. If the police
knew there was a businessman or woman behind
the individual they are about to attack, surely
they would think twice.
The American business community is the most
powerful economic force in the country. We are
its leaders. We have power. We can make a difference. So, let’s make it.

president, CEO, Ibis Communications,

Marquette Bank Chili Cook-Off aids shelters
The staff at Marquette Bank recently
held its Chil Cook-Off where employees
face off with their best chili recipe to help
benefit local shelter organizations.
Kevin McCarthy, fraud analyst at the
Corporate Center, was awarded first place
by a panel of judges in charge of deciding
the best chili. The Cook-Off raised $395
for local shelter organizations and included donations from employees to sample
the different chili recipes.
“The Chili Cook-Off is a really fun way
to get employees involved in the Neighborhood Commitment, and who wouldn’t
want a warm bowl of chili in the winter,”
said Betty Kosky-Harn, excutive vice
president of Marquette Bank. “It gets employees in the giving spirit and we all enjoy delicious recipes in support of a worthy cause.”
The Chili Cook-Off is part of Marquette
Bank’s Neighborhood Commitment,
where each quarter the bank focuses on a
different area of need: shelter, hunger, education and health/wellness.

Income, Money, Wealth: Building A Stronger Financial Future
PLANNING FOR WEALTH
Consider these universal tips to
improve your financial outlook.
1. Get an education. The amount
of money you make during your
life is directly related to how
much education you have. High
school graduates make more than
non-graduates. College and trade
school graduates make more than
those with only a high school diploma. Consider an advanced degree or professional certifications.
Education is the biggest factor in
your lifetime earning potential.
Remember: For higher earnings,
never stop learning.
2. Focus on career advancement. Always look for new opportunities and ways to increase
your income. Don’t settle for a
job, build a career. Hourly positions or minimum wage jobs
rarely provide long-term financial security. Build your network
to find opportunities. If you lack
formal education, consider sales
positions that do not require a
specific degree. When established
in your career, work hard, exceed
expectations and always ask for
annual reviews. Find out how you
can improve and earn a raise. Increases add up over the years and
will build your wealth.
3. Have a money plan. Plan a
monthly financial budget. Know
where your money is going and
itemize all your expenses. Adjust
your expenses based on your income. Cut out all the extras. Stick
to your budget. Plan for retirement. Plan for big goals like paying for college or buying a home.
4. Save more. Always contribute
to your employer’s 401(k) plan.
Some employers match up to a
certain percent. When you can,
maximize your annual contributions. Create an emergency savings fund, build it to 3 months
worth of expenses, then to 6
months or even more. When you
get a raise at work, save all (or
a portion) of the increase. Work
with your local banker to find
more ways to save.
5. Adjust your money mindset.
Learn the difference between
wants and needs. Consider all
your purchases, big and small.
Look for sales. Pay your bills on
time. As soon as you can, start to
live below your means. By not
spending everything you have,
your savings and retirement funds
will grow more quickly. Focus on
saving rather than on spending.
Shift your thinking; get excited
over saving a dollar rather than
spending a dollar.

It’s been cold outside for humans and animals
Hello Villagers!
BRRR! As I write this column, it is colder here than
the North Pole.
Here are some tips for your animals in the frigid
air. Always wipe the paws of pets if they have been
exposed to areas where ice has melted. The melted ice
might contain chemicals that are dangerous for pets
to ingest and can cause blistering on their paws.
Keep an eye out for limping, excessive licking of
their feet and redness to the skin areas between pads.
Cats should be kept inside in extreme cold. Also, feral
cats love to warm up underneath car hoods. If your
car is kept outdoors, or if cats have access to your
garage, be sure to pound on the hood of the car prior
to starting it. Many cats are killed or severely injured
by fan belts and moving engine parts.
The craft fairs season has begun. A craft fair will
be held from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Saturday, Feb. 28 at St.
Gerald Parish in Chapel Hall, which is the lower level
of the church, 9310 S. 55th Court, Oak Lawn.
St Gerald also has a meatless supper every Friday
during Lent in Chapel Hall. The meals will be served
from 5 to 6 p.m. The price is volunteer donation.
Do you want to share your photos with others
who have the same interests? Here is a club to join.
The Oak Lawn Camera Club will meet at 7 p.m. Fridays, March 6 and 13, at the Oak View Community
Center, 4625 W. 110th St., Oak Lawn.
The first Friday of the month is always “Competition Night.” Theme for the March competition is
“close ups.”
The second Friday of the month is a practical
workshop or guest speaker event. The first meeting
is free for new visitors. The Oak Lawn Camera Club
members pay a nominal fee.
If you enjoy the spirit of photo art competition, and

Staff and students at Brother Rice High School hosted a “wear blue” dress down to support “Get Behind the Vest,
an initiative sponsored by the Chicago Police Memorial Foundation that works to raise funds to replace worn out

Team, Dr. Kevin Burns, president at Brother Rice; and Becky Pacetti, Student Activities Director. – Submitted photo
Brother Rice raises funds for police vests
As part of Catholic Schools Week celebrations, staff
and students at Brother Rice High School, 10001 S.
Pulaski Road, Chicago, hosted a “wear blue” dress
down day to support “Get Behind the Vest, an initiative sponsored by the Chicago Police Memorial Foundation that works to raise funds to replace worn out
bulletproof vests for Chicago police officers.
A bulletproof vest has a life of about five years, and
the replacement cost is approximately $500. Police
officers are given a vest when they initially join the
force, but they must replace their vests on a regular
basis because the materials wear out and break down.
A bullet will permanently damage a vest, thereby
making it unusable, according to police.
Kate McMahon, a representative from “Get Behind
the Vest” contacted Brother Rice President Dr. Kevin
Burns to ask if the school would be willing to come
on board and support this initiative. The date was set
and 10 CPD officers who are also Brother Rice parents
came out to be a part of the day.
This event revealed that 100 Brother Rice students
have a parent or other close family member who is a
CPD officer, and alumni statistics showed that about
220 Brother Rice alumni are CPD officers.
“Get Behind the Vest” Dress Down Day 2 brought
in $1,358. The amount will be added to the recent proceeds of $1,000. Burns said he will personally match
that amount to bring the total to $5,800, which will
allow for the purchase of 14 bulletproof vests for CPD
officers.
The Brother Rice “wear blue” dress down day netted $1,000 for this campaign, which will purchase two
bulletproof vests. The goal of “Get Behind the Vest”
is to raise enough funds to purchase 8,000 vests. Residents would like to contribute can go to http://www.
getbehindthevest.org/ for more information.

Filling up on Fat Tuesday before start of Lent
Stepping back to the special day that has been popularly known as Paczki Day, I passed out some of the
delicious paczki, each one filled with delicious custard.
Getting ready for Ash Wednesday and the meaning of
Lent is made a little easier by enjoying such delicacies.
I hope you got into the spirit of Fat Tuesday, too.
On the same day, my son, Glen, and I enjoyed lunch at
Les Brothers Restaurant at 87th and Ridgeland Avenue
in Oak Lawn. This is one of the family-owned-and-operated restaurants that I was told would be celebrating
their 41st year anniversary on Cinco de Mayo (May 5)
this year. Congratulations and Sto lat.
The nice owner greeted me in Polish by wishing us
a good day — Dzien dobry. He said he learned it from
his many customers. And so we send our congratulations and best wishes of Sto lat (100 years) to Les
Brothers Restaurant.
We both had a delicious meal — and plenty of it —
and enjoyed chatting with the very pleasant and efficient waitress and the charming owner.
By the way, we celebrated Mardi Gras by wearing our colored beads that I got at Heaven on Seven
and saved for many years. I also have the King emblem, that one of my former co-workers, Lucille Mor-
Nance Dulaj

gan-Williams, had brought back for me from New Orleans in 2001.
One time, Alice Ralph, Sarah Bales and Carol
(whose surname I cannot recall) from the office of the
City Commission on Human Relations, got together
for a Cajun meal and had a piece of the King cake (a
tiny baby doll is inside and whoever gets it will have
good luck the rest of the year).
I did the early voting as I now do each time because I like using the computer and greeting the kind
crew. I appreciate getting a lift to West Lawn Park this
time by “ZZ,” our precinct captain out of Ald. Marty
Quinn’s (13th) office.
Then on the following day, Ash Wednesday, we
were reminded of our mortality and the goodness we
should spread by our good works. We are reminded of
our destiny and so we try our best and look forward
to Easter.
I’d like to wish a very Happy New Year to our
Chinese friends by saying “Xin Nian Kuai Le” in
Mandarin, or “San Nin Faai Lok” in Cantonese. The
New Year on Feb. 20 marked the longest and most important holiday in the Chinese lunar calendar.
I found Kathy Headley’s article about the Project
Linus Blankets of Love in the Feb. 20 edition very interesting.
I was also proud to see the photo on page 2 of the
Feb. 20 News-Herald where Joseph Salas, LSC chairperson at Kennedy High School, unveils a plaque in
honor of his friend and former local school council
member, the late Barbara Fisher. She was a member of
the my fraternity, Phi Chi Theta, and used to bring her
mom and sister to our meetings.
Let us whisper our special prayer for our devoted
military, their families, and our good ol’ USA.

CHICAGO PUBLIC LEAGUE BASKETBALL
Bogan defeats Simeon for city title
Bogan captured the Chicago Public League city
basketball championship with a 47-42 Simeon on
Sunday at Chicago State University.
The Bengals (22-6) got off to a quick lead and had
top-ranked Simeon on its heels. The Wolverines (243) tried to recover from a sluggish first quarter but
could never catch the Bengals.
Bogan led 17-6 after the first quarter. Simeon had
problems the rest of the game keeping up with the
quicker guards of the Bengals.
The closest Simeon came to catching Bogan was
late in the game. Bengals guard Luwane Pipkins held
the ball for over 30 seconds with continuous dribbling
to eat most of the clock. The Wolverines had pulled to
within three points at that point.
Pipkins led the Bogan attack with 19 points. He
canned 10 of 11 free throws. The Bengals shot 15-for17 from the free-throw line.
James Jones contributed 11 points for the Bengals.
Senior Antonio Thomas had six points and four rebounds.
Edward Morrow had 19 points and 10 rebounds for
Simeon.
Bogan head coach Arthur Goodwin said his team
has overcome some adversity in the middle of the season and pulled together at the right time.
McAuley senior selected as Chick Evans Scholar
Elizabeth Evans, a senior at Mother McAuley High School, has been
selected as a Chick Evans Scholar.
The Chick Evans Scholarship is
funded through the Evans Scholars
Foundation and provides a fouryear tuition and housing to students
attending one of 17 universities
throughout the country, 14 of which
boast a Scholarship House.
Evans, who caddies at Beverly
Country Club, was one of 12 students in the first round of interviews, and therefore one of the first
students to receive the honor. The
committee shared with her that they
were impressed with her resume
and that her application really stood
out to the committee.
“I responded that I like the all-
girls atmosphere,” Evans said.
“Normally, you’re with three other caddies who are all boys, and
four men golfers, so the confidence
gained from the all-girl atmosphere
really hits home when I’m working.”
Evans was awarded the scholarship to Indiana University, where
she hopes to study International Relations, with the aim to work in the
Foreign Service for the UN, or for
the State’s Department.
While at McAuley, Evans has
been active member of Model UN,
Student Ambassadors, the National
English Honor Society, the National Honor Society and the National
Spanish Honor Society.

Cook’s Corner
Two ugly roots make up a bowl of beautiful soup
By Dana Jacobi
When the weather turns cool, I eat soup almost every day. Now, after cooking many pots of chunky Eight
Vegetable Soup, hearty Chicken Soup with Buckwheat
and green Broccoli Rabe with Pasta, I needed to make
something, well, different.
Different ingredients seemed like the place to start.
Celery root and parsnips came to mind. Both are root
vegetables with big flavor and a texture that is comforting in soups. Supermarkets carry both, although many
Americans ignore them.
Celery root tastes like a cross between celery (to which
it is related) and parsley. It is brown, more or less round,
the size of a softball or large grapefruit and it should feel
heavy for its size. Its surface is pitted on the top part,
while the lower third of a celery root is a maze of rootlets
and grit-filled crevices.
It looks something like Mad-Eye Moody, the potion-making professor in the Harry Potter books, would use, but it is
easy to peel, cut into chunks and cook. The recipe below
explains what to do when you get a celery root home.
Making this recipe, you will have celery root leftover.
I recommend shredding it, and then mixing the raw celery root with mayonnaise, mustard and lemon juice. The
French call this crunchy, piquant salad celeri remoulade,
and I predict you will love it.
Parsnips look like white carrots that are chubby on top and
taper to a skinny bottom part. Cooking turns them deliciously
sweet. A good parsnip is creamy white and it feels firm and
rigid, like a fresh carrot. The best ones are the size of a medium carrot, so their fibrous center core is tender enough to eat.
Celery root and parsnips both go well with other root
vegetables, so I decided to simmer them with carrots, onion, a touch of butter for richness and warming spices.
Puréed, the soup they make is luxuriously velvety, cheeringly sunny and cozily comforting.
Celery root and parsnips can help make up a flavorful soup
for a cold day.
CELERY ROOT AND PARSNIP SOUP
• 1 small celery root
• 1 Gala apple, peeled
• 1 Tbsp. unsalted butter
• 1 tsp. canola oil
• 1 cup chopped carrots
• 1 cup chopped onion
• 3/4 cup peeled and chopped parsnips
• 1 tsp. ground cumin
• 1/2 tsp. ground cardamom
• 1/2 tsp. ground ginger
• 3 cups low sodium chicken broth
• Salt and freshly ground black pepper
Place celery root on its side and cut off top and bottom.
Stand celery root upright and cut away peel in vertical
strips from top to bottom following its shape to expose
white flesh. Rinse celery root and chop into roughly 3/4-
inch pieces, measuring out 2 cups. Store remaining celery root in bowl of water with squirt of lemon juice to use
later in salad or stir-fries. It keeps for up to 2 days.
Core apple and cut into 4 quarters. Chop three of the
quarters and set aside. Cut fourth quarter lengthwise first
into 3 slices, then stack and thinly cut slices crosswise to
form small triangles. Set aside for garnish.
In large saucepan, melt 1 tablespoon butter with oil
over medium heat. Add celery root, carrots, onion and
parsnips, mixing until they look shiny. Cook until onion is translucent, about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Cover pot tightly and cook for 8 minutes, until vegetables are very moist. Mix in cumin, cardamom and ginger. Add chopped apple pieces and stir to combine. Pour
in broth, and bring to boil. Cover, reduce heat and simmer soup until vegetables are very soft, 20 minutes. Let
cooked soup stand, uncovered, for 10 minutes.
Carefully transfer hot soup to blender. Cover, wrap
dishtowel around top of blender and purée soup until
smooth and velvety, starting low and finishing at high
speed. You may need to do this in two batches. Season
soup to taste with salt and pepper.
In small skillet over medium heat, melt remaining 1 teaspoon butter. Add reserved apple and cook until shiny and
slightly softened, about 3 minutes. Remove from heat.
To serve, divide soup among 4 soup bowls. Spoon onefourth of sautéed apple into center of each bowl. Serve
soup immediately.

St. Rita parishioners collect clothes for shelter
Every year during Lent,
parishioners of St. Rita of
Cascia Parish, 63rd and
Fairfield, participate in
Lenten Acts of Justice; a
different act is focused on
every week. This week’s
act centers on the Franciscan House of Mary and
Joseph Shelter, 2715 W.
Harrison. St. Rita parishioners Frederico and Imelda
Padilla have been volunteering at this shelter for
many years and recently
other parishioners have
been going to volunteer be-
Kathy Headley
Chicago Lawn &
Marquette Manor
6610 S. Francisco
Chicago, IL 60629
(773) 776-7778
cause of their enthusiasm.
On Sunday, March 1,
everyone will have the
opportunity to help the
shelter in three ways. The
first is to prepare food for
the homeless guests; next
is to travel to the shelter
and serve the food that will
be prepared; and the third
opportunity is to bring
items that the shelter needs
and deposit them in boxes
on Sunday at church.
If Sunday just doesn’t
work for you, the parish
will collect the following items for the shelter
throughout Lent: New
pillows, new men’s cotton
T-shirts (L, XL, 2X), and
new men’s or women’s
underwear (all sizes).
Franciscan Outreach is
one of the oldest and largest providers for men and
women who are homeless
in the Chicago area. From
offering refuge from the
streets, to feeding the hungry, to helping individuals
build a better life, Franciscan Outreach is a lifeline
to thousands in need each
year. All individuals are
welcome regardless of
background or religious
affiliation and are treated with the dignity and
respect they deserve.
For more information
on how you can help with
this week’s act of justice,
contact Imelda Padilla at
(773) 584-8923 or email
[email protected].
Members of the Alumnae Committee of St. Casimir Academy and Maria
High School are looking
for people who would
like to help coordinate
their class. Duties include
contacting classmates,
updating contact information, and encouraging
them to attend the upcoming reunion. If you would
like to help, send an email
to Anna Belle O’Shea at
[email protected] or call (773)
925-8686, ext 7.
This week let’s go back
30 years and see what was
happening in 1985.
Does anyone remember
Phil Howanic from 62nd and
Fairfield? In 1985, he was a
retired sheet metal worker
whose hobby was building
really enchanting dollhouses.
He didn’t build them to sell
but gave them away when
he’d finish. It took him about
two months to build the
two-foot long and two-foot
high sturdy wooden houses,
which were even wired for
electricity. His reasoning for
building the houses was to
keep his mind sharp.
And in 1985, we were
still buying our soda pop in
16-ounce bottles. Colony
Foods, the “Home of the
Red Fox” was advertising
8 bottles of Royal Crown
Cola for $1.39 plus deposit.
Cool Whip was $1.09 for 8
ounces. Other specials included Parkay Margarine at
99 cents for a 16 ounce tub,
Dove Dishwashing Liquid
at 89 cents for 22 ounces,
and a 3-pack of Hi-C fruit
drink boxes for 77 cents.
Is it just me or do those
prices seem high for 30
years ago? In 1985, starting
salary for a secretary was
$14,000 and a general office
clerk could expect $3.25
an hour. We’ll stop back in
1985 again next week.

(6,267). Arteaga received 1,780 (18.9
percent), while Goral garnered 1,358
(14.4 percent). She also lost to Zalewski
in 2011.
The only local aldermen who had an
easier night were Ed Burke (14th) and
Marty Quinn (13th), who were unopposed. Zalewski thanked them both,
and House Speaker Michael Madigan
(D-22nd), for their help in his race.
“I think tonight’s victory has been the
sweetest of all,” Zalewski told supporters who gave him a standing ovation as
he entered the post-election celebration
at The Mayfield banquet hall, 6072 S.
Archer Ave.
“I’ve never said that we have a perfect ward or that I am a perfect person.
But judging by the results of the election tonight, the people of the ward have
respected the hard work that has been
done. …Campaigns are always hard and
can be bruising, but if you do your job
for the three or four years before them,
people remember,” he said.
In recent weeks, Zalewski’s campaign
had been accused of using scare tactics
by sending flyers to homes asserting
that Goral, a real estate broker, would
bring Section 8 housing into the ward.
But Zalewski asserted that Goral raised
the issue first. In any case, he said that
the election was over, and he wanted to
move on.
He praised his office staff, saying
that during the day as he visited polling places all over the ward, numerous
people thanked him for the attention and
respect they had received at the service
office.
Zalewski said his first priority now is
to continue the work on business development that he began with groups such
as Garfield Ridge Retail Entertainment
and Amusement Team. “With the economy recovering, I think that is the most
important thing in the ward,” he said.
In the 22nd Ward, which now includes
parts of Garfield Ridge and Archer
Heights, incumbent Ald. Ricardo Munoz
fended off challenges from Raul Montes
Jr., Robert Martinez and Neftalie Gonzalez. Munoz tallied 2,825 votes (57.4
percent). Coming in a distant second
was Montes, with 864 (17.6 percent).
Gonzalez had 660 votes (13.4 percent),
and 572 (11.6 percent) went to Martinez.
tion related to the crime. It is not known
whether the elderly victim was targeted
because of her age or if the burglary was
a random act.
A few blocks away on Feb. 13, a home
in the 5300 block of West Otto Place (between 90th and 91st Street) was burglarized between 3:25 and 6:30 p.m. while
no one was home. Although a door was
forced open in both cases, it isn’t known
if the crimes are related.
In the Feb. 13 case, the homeowner
found the back door forced open and a
wedding ring missing.
Seniors living alone are being advised
by police to take safety precautions.
These include keeping phones within
easy reach and installing deadbolt locks
on doors and motion sensor lights outside.
Any suspicious activity should be reported to police immediately.
Anyone with information about the Feb.
19 incident may contact the Oak Lawn Police Department at (708) 422-8292.
at Plumbers Hall on Tuesday night. “We
have a lot of work to do. We are a city of
different ideals and opinions. I think of
the parents and grandparents of this city
who just want peace of mind.
“I congratulate Chuy Garcia. He is a
good man,” added Emanuel. “I look forward to debating the issues.”
While the mayor and his supporters
put up a brave front, some local officials
told the News-Herald on Tuesday night
that they were in a state of shock. Emanuel’s campaign spent over $10 million
over the past few months, including a
series of TV ads.
One of those ads featured President
Barack Obama embracing Emanuel
during a news conference held last Friday designating the Pullman Historic
District. Obama’s endorsement of Emanuel apparently did not sway enough voters.
Emanuel also may have been hurt by
the fact that the voter turnout was 33
percent. The mayor, who had just over
55 percent of the vote to avoid a runoff
in 2011, had 100,000 fewer votes in 2015,
according to the Chicago Board of Elections.
“For the people of Chicago, I want
to thank you for coming out to vote,”
Emanuel told his crowd of supporters.
“I want you take a moment to celebrate.
But we do have a lot of work ahead of us.
Tomorrow morning (Wednesday), I will
be at the El stops greeting you.”
Garcia’s campaign had little funding
to work with but did run a TV ad this
month. Garcia supporters said his surprising finish was due to a strong grassroots approach. His aides also suggested
that Emanuel’s decision to close nearly
50 Chicago Public Schools drew resentment from Hispanics, blacks and the
Chicago Teachers Union.
“How do you feel, Chicago?” a smiling Garcia said to enthusiastic followers at the Alhambra Palace Restaurant
on Tuesday night. “Nobody thought we
would be here tonight. They wrote us
off, said we didn’t have a chance. We are
still standing. We are still running and
we are going to win.”
Garcia added that this is a victory
for working families and a rejection of
big corporations who poured millions
of dollars into Emanuel’s campaign. He
also said that crime is an issue the mayor
does not address, stating that there have
been 10,000 shootings in the city the
past four years.
“People want safe neighborhoods and
good schools for their kids,” added Garcia. “I won’t forget you. I will listen to
you. We are going to build a new Chicago where people will want to move to
instead of running away from. We have
six weeks of hard work ahead of us.”
Garcia also thanked Karen Lewis, the
head of the Chicago Teachers Union,
who encouraged him to run. Lewis was
considering running for mayor but had
to back out after she was diagnosed with
a brain tumor.
Wilson thanked his supporters Tuesday night. He said he planned to meet
with Garcia on Wednesday.
“We made a difference with the city
of Chicago. Major corporations should
not run our city; citizens should run our
city,” Wilson said.
Fioretti blamed his showing on low
voter turnout and his inability to raise
enough money. Union support he was
courting instead backed Garcia.
Walls said he is disappointed but
proud of his message and the support
he did receive. Walls said he no longer
plans to run for any political office in the
future.
City Clerk Susana Mendoza and City
Treasurer Kurt Summers were unopposed in Tuesday’s election.
