DOWNERS GROVE –Standing in the third floor ofGustav Bunge’s former home,it’s not hard to imagine thehistoric Downers Grove fig-ure looking out the window tosee his Tivoli Theatre rise onebrick at a time.
The window still providesa view of the back of the land-mark theatre built by Bungeand his son, George, in 1928.Longtime owner Lea Waynebought the property in 1991and has restored the home toits original luster.
She put the five-bedroomBunge Mansion, 4943 High-land Ave., on the market thismonth at $985,000.
Under the tall, cathedralceiling of the third-floor li-brary sits a row of theatreseats originally from the Tivo-li, lined in front of a largeflatscreen TV. And acrossthe room, sit three early 20thcentury bottles – found in thewalls during restoration. Thethird floor also features a bed-room and full bathroom.
Throughout the home, or-nate oak woodwork has beenstripped down to its originalhue, and the home is accent-ed by period details like athree-dimensional stainedglass window and amarble tilefireplace. Even the radiatorsare decorative. Bedroom doorson the second floor are toppedby transom windows equippedwith a unique copper lever foreasy opening and closing.
The home is large at morethan 4,000 square feet, thoughperhaps not gigantic in com-parison to today’s definition ofa mansion.
Despite its size and three
stories, the Bunge family actu-ally moved the house from itsoriginal location to its currentaddress in 1928 to make wayfor the theatre.
“When we moved theBlodgett house, and we only
moved it 100 feet, and it wasquite the [ordeal], and we hadmodern machines and equip-ment,”RealtorElenaFalco said.“A house of this size, I have no
idea how theymoved it.”Thehome, built in the 1880s,
would eventually go throughmany transitions, function-ing as a boarding house
during the great depression,and then eventually fallinginto disrepair until Wayne

DOWNERS GROVE – May-ors from DuPage County areback after lobbying Spring-field for public safety pensionreform earlier this month, butthey hope to keep the topic inthe forefront until lawmakersenact change.
Itasca Mayor and DuPageCounty Mayors and ManagersPresident Jeffery Pruyn, LisleMayor Joesph Broda and oth-ers in the organization saidpolice and fire pensions havebecome unsustainable as theunfunded portions of the fundshave ballooned in the past de-cade.
The group is looking to in-crease employee contributionsand increase the retirementage or years of work requiredto receive the pension. Themayors also want to curb theyearly compounded 3 percentcost of living adjustment,which they name as the big-gest culprit.
“Basically, policemen re-tire in their early 50s, and 20years later their pensions dou-ble,” Pruyn said.
The mayors said the com-pounded increase is exacerbat-ed by sweeteners added overtime by Illinois lawmakersand the fact the number of re-tired workers are catching upwith the number of currentemployees.
The result, they said, isbetween 2004 and 2010, mu-nicipal contributions to pub-lic safety pensions more thandoubled, from $247 to $511million, but average fundinglevels dropped from about 64percent to 55 percent.
As the unfunded liabili-ty grows, larger percentagesof municipal property taxes
go toward paying the annu-al pension contribution. Forexample, all of Burr Ridge’smunicipal property taxes nowgo toward paying public safe-ty pensions, DuPage CountyMayors and Managers Exec-utive Director Mark Balogasaid.
Opponents to the reformstouted by the DuPage CountyMayors and Managers claimfloundering pension funds arenot caused by workers whocontributed their share but
by municipalities that under-funded the plans, poor invest-ment returns and inflated ac-tuarial predictions for returns.
Themayors added if the leg-islature does not immediatelyreform public safety pensions,they need to at least remove apenalty provision.
The provision states by2015, municipalities mustfund pensions to a level of 90percent, amortized to 2040, orrisk having local revenue gar-nished.
“We need to see a delay ofthe trigger date of that penal-ty provision,” Baloga said. “Ifthey’re going to kick (reform)down the road, they need tokick the whole thing down theroad.”
Pruyn, Baloga and Brodamet Friday with Suburban LifeMedia’s editorial staff to dis-cuss pension reform and thegroup’s opposition to a “min-imum manning” bill, whichwould make fire departmentmanning levels a mandatorysubject of firefighter contractarbitration proceedings. TheDuPage County Mayors andManagers names both issues as2014 legislative priorities.
They resist the “minimummanning” bill because requir-ing a municipality to maintaina certain number of firefight-ers could force it to hire morethan they could afford, Pruynand Broda said.
“We could end up having tocut equipment,” Broda said.“You might have the person-nel but not the equipment forthem to use.
“We actually see it as dam-aging to public safety.”
During themeetingwith theeditorial staff, Broda, Pruynand Baloga mentioned anotherlegislative issue – giving non-home-rulemunicipalitiesmorefreedom in how they expendhotel-motel taxes. Currently,non home-rule communitiesonly can spend their hotel-mo-tel taxes on tourism-relatedexpenses. The DuPage Coun-ty Mayors and Managers sup-ports a bill which would allownonhome-rule communities toplace up to 50 percent of thoserevenues in the general fund,and the other 50 percent ormore would remain in tour-ism.
“The village of Itasca, wehave 8,700 people and 1,100 ho-tel rooms,” Pruyn said. “Weget over $1 million a year inhotel tax which, right now,and I can’t even use to fix thestreet in front of the hotel.”
Broda and Pruyn said evenif the law was changed, theylikely still would devote themajority of the funds to tour-ism but would benefit from theadded flexibility for a portionof the funds.
“I’d be foolish if I used 50percent ... for general revenuewhen I’ve got three hotels. Iwant to keep them turning,”Broda said.
ItascaMayor Jeff Pruyn (from left), LisleMayor Joe Broda and DuPageMayors andManagers Conference Exec-utive Director Mark Baloga meet Friday with Suburban Life Media staff members to discuss legislative issues.

EATING DISORDERSQ: Can eating disorders have an impact on
oral health?
A: Yes, an eating disorder can affect your oralhealth. In fact, a dentist is sometimes the firsthealth-care provider to recognize the signs of aneating disorder in a patient. Here’s why:
Bulimia and anorexia nervosa are two of themost common eating disorders. While theseconditions can occur in males, they are mostcommon in adolescent girls and those in their20s. Bulimia involves binge eating and purgingby forced vomiting. Anorexia is an abnormalfear of getting fat and leads to poor eatinghabits. A person with anorexia nervosa willpush herself to a state of malnutrition by noteating or by using laxatives. The stomach acidgenerated by a bulimic in the act of vomitingcan erode teeth. The heavy pattern of consistentvomiting practiced by a bulimic will have anoticeable effect on teeth; specifically, it willleave them worn and yellow
Obviously, the more serious danger with theconditions of bulimia and anorexia nervosa isthe impact either can have on a person’s generalhealth.

The District 99 SchoolBoard voted unanimouslyApril 21 to switch school buscompanies next year followingwhat was described as poorservice.
“We’ve experienced somevery bad service,” District 99Controller Mark Staehlin toldthe board April 21. “We’ve hadadministrators who’ve devot-ed full days to deal with par-ents who were irate about bus-ing. It’s never been this bad.”
The district is in its thirdyear of a five-year contractwith the current provider,Westway Inc. Staehlin saidissues began the first yearwith Westway but he did notprovide specifics. He said ser-vice improved last year butproblems returned this schoolyear.
Westway chose to opt out ofthe final two years of the cur-rent contract and reopen it forbidding this spring becausethe current contract only al-
lowed them to increase ratesin the final two years by theCPI, Staehlin said, despite thefact the district told the com-pany they would not be chosenduring re-bidding due to ser-vice issues.
“In March, [Westway’sowner] felt it was in our bestinterest and probably his togo to an outside bid for thiswork,” Staehlin said.
The board voted April 21to accept a bid from First Stu-dent, the only other companyto bid other than Westway.
Westway also provides bus-ing to Downers Grove SchoolDistrict 58 and Woodridge El-ementary School District 68,and those two districts alsoare expected to switch to FirstStudent, Staehlin said.
First Student was the com-
pany used by the district priorto Westway.
Board member Keith Ma-tune asked if the district be-lieves whatever issues led it toleave First Student three yearsago would return.
“The service we receivedfrom First Student was notperfect, but it’s not so bad,”Staehlin replied.
He added that First Studenttouted routing systems thatshould improve its perfor-mance.
“If nothing else we’re com-mitted to working with themto make sure we don’t havesubstandard service,” Staeh-lin said.
He said the fact that FirstStudent still has property inthe district that it can use as abus terminal was a plus.
“The very late notice thatWestway would not honor theexisting contract left us in aprecarious position,” he wrotein a memo to the board. “Bid-ding this service out in Aprilwould require a replacementvendor to secure a terminal
location and approximately 90to 100 vehicles and drivers ina three- to four-month period.That is very hard to accom-plish.”
In bidding this month, West-way’s three-year bid of $5.714million was less than FirstStudent’s bid of $5.755 million,but Staehlin said contracts forstudent transportation are notrequired by law to be awardedto the lowest bidder.
The new contract with FirstStudent is about $400,000 morethan the current contract withWestway, but Staehlin said thedistrict hopes to reduce thatnumber to $250,000 throughroute efficiencies.
“This is a large and unex-pected increase,” he wrote tothe board. “However, the latenotification by Westway thatthey would not honor the cur-rent contract terms places usin a position that we need to se-cure a contractor for next yearimmediately or face the possi-bility of not having adequatebus services in place at thestart of the next school year.”

Question: What do you get when you combine 20 local art-ists, 20 chairs and a caring community?
Answer: A transformational art experience for everyone.This spring, Bridge Communities debuts A Chair Affair,
a celebration of art and its restorative powers. We partneredwith 20 DuPage Countyartists – and in many cases,they’re award-winning andnationally-renowned artists –who were given the creativechallenge of taking a second-hand chair, stool or bench,and transforming it into an entirely new piece of art.
The recreated masterpieces will be displayed in severalstorefronts throughout downtown Naperville fromMay 27 toJune 11, when shoppers and community members will be ableto vote for their favorite chair online. Then, you can join usand the artists June 12 at a gala event at North Central Col-lege’s Wentz Hall, featuring an open bar, hors d’oeuvres, andboth silent and live auctions. Proceeds from the chairs willbenefit homeless families in DuPage County served by BridgeCommunities.
Special events are always fun for us, but what makes thisone even better is the sheer spirit of community we’re seeingas people get involved. We have a piece coming from the Wom-en’s Wisdom art therapy class of People’s Resource Center, achair reimagined by all the women in the class working togeth-er. Another chair, inspired by the city of Naperville, is titled“This Town Rocks!”
The best part of A Chair Affair is what it is at its heart – an artexperience that’s both by the community and for the community.Each of these one-of-a-kindmasterpieces have genuinemeaningbehind them, as they were all made in honor of, and to benefit, the109 homeless families Bridge serves each year. They’re familiesthat weren’t perfect; families that went through difficult times;families that might have been a little broken and bruised. Andthanks to a caring community, they’re families that are repaired,transformed, and discovering beauty and strength again.
Buy your ticket now and join us for an exciting night ofcreativity — it’ll truly be “an affair to remember.” To get yourticket and vote for your favorite chair, visit www.bridgecom-munities.org.

When mayors Joseph Broda of Lisle andJeff Pruyn of Itasca stopped by the SuburbanLife Media newsroom Friday to talk aboutlegislative priorities for 2014, there was onecommon thread across all topics – Spring-field’s apparent reluctance to take action onlocal issues. And these aren’t just any issues– these are the ones where new state laws arerequired for any change to take place.
Broda and Pruynwere visiting in their rolesas representatives of the DuPageMayors andManagers Conference, a group that travels toSpringfield periodically to talk with legislatorsabout how state-level matters affect local mu-nicipalities. Their top prioritieswere:
• The need for the Legislature to reformpublic safety pensions.While Illinois took actionto reform four statewide pension systems in2013, and received a lot of attention for doing so,the local public safety pensions – think policeand firefighters –were left untouched.While thestate pension systems ran aground in part be-cause of the state’s failure to fully fund them, lo-calmunicipalities that havemade their requiredpayments find themselves falling behind any-way as the formulas for determining howmuchneeds to be contributed change – for instance, aslife expectancies for pension recipients rise.
• Opposing House Bill 5485, which wouldmakeminimummanning amandatory topicfor discussion in collective bargainingwith fire-fighters’ unions. There’s nothing currently to
stop a union from raising the topic of howmanyfirefighters are hired in a given department,but there’s nothing requiring amunicipality tomeet any such requests. Cities and villages, themayors said, consider staffing levels as part oftheir entire budgeting process – if this bill pass-es, they could be forced by arbitration to hiremore firefighters than they can afford, therebyreducing governmental services elsewhere.
The common element in these and otherissues?Most local governments work hardto be responsible when it comes tomanagingtaxpayers’ money, but they feel that too oftentheir hands are tied by state laws that requirespending beyondwhat actually is needed. Abill such as theminimummanning proposalsounds well-intentioned but given that federalguidelines already dictate the number of fire-fighters for each truck, it does seem counter-productive to start adding extra requirementsthat could lead tomore spending without anybenefit to residents.
It’s bad enough that Illinois has put itselfin dire straits financially, and admirable thatSpringfield is trying to dig itself out throughmeasures like pension reform for state employ-ees. Butwe can’t forget that local governmentsare laboring under restrictions that force themtowaste dollars they’d rather spend responsibly.
Springfield needs to act on these propos-als so that our local officials can do the jobswe’ve elected them to do.

Enough taxes alreadyI seeWestmont is now cutting
more services but raising taxes.The streets department will nolonger be picking up brush insteadwaste management will be doingit. And there are much stricterguidelines for putting brush out.The elderly will not be able tomanage. Also, I see the village isstill in talks to enact a stormwaterrunoff fee, better known as a tax.Residents are paying enoughtaxes and cannot afford what wenow have. Nomore new taxesand stop making up new taxesthat the village of Westmontresidents cannot afford.
Foxes, fence builders willbenefit from chickensAccording to the Suburban
Life, if the Downers Grove VillageCouncil approves the new back-yard chickens ordinance, the newsetback for chicken coops willonly be 7 feet from property linesinstead of the current 50-footrequirement. All neighbors wouldalso have to give an OK and the$84 dollar permit would last fiveyears before all neighbors wouldhave to consent again. I feelfew neighbors want to disagree,regardless of their desire for farmanimals next door. The winnershere will be foxes, raccoons andfence contractors, once chickenscan be kept in virtually any neigh-borhood in the village. Expectthat lots of high fences will bebuilt and tight-lipped neighborsand Realtors will be torn betweenfull disclosure and mums theword.
Resident hopes villagewill study chicken issueMany schools and daycare
providers have regulationsprohibiting most mammalsand birds from being kept inclassrooms in areas wherecasual contact in proximity withchildren could lead to airborne orcontact-spread parasites or mi-cro-organisms. As the village ofDowners Grove moves to reducebarriers to residential backyardchicken keeping, one hopeshealth and liability analyses havebeen carried out to be sure thatfresh avenues for the spread ofdisease will not be opened.
Responding toWestmont’sbrush pick-up costsI’m calling concerning the
article in the Suburban Lifeconcerning Westmont’s newbrush-pickup program. I wasquite surprised to see thisand actually disappointed inthe town of Westmont. I doknow that they just purchasedlast year a brand new chip-per and a brand new chippertruck specifically for pickingup brush in the village itself,which residents pay for. Also,what it doesn’t mention in thearticle that I’m very concernedabout; if waste management ispicking up brush on a basis thatcoincides with garbage pickup,who’s paying the additional billfor this service, which West-mont is eliminating by doingthemselves? I’m sure we’regoing to have another increasein our garbage pickup fee, andit’s not listed here. I am veryconcerned. I believe whatshould happen is only thosewho have brush pickup shouldhave to purchase a sticker orsomething at the village andpay for it so that we don’t allhave to share its cost, whichwe cannot afford. Also, thereare much stricter guidelines asto how the brush has to be putout. I’m concerned that someof the elderly people aren’t ableto accommodate this require-ment.
Glen Ellyn shouldbetter control spendingThe village of Glen Ellyn
announced there will be at $1.4million shortfall in its budget. Inthe same breath, it approved thehiring of consultants to mock upnew signage. With a deficit bud-get, the board decided to moveforward with more spending.It’s always more surveys, morestudies, more consulting fees onfrivolous ideas with Glen Ellyn.Why do we bother with politi-cians?

Local girl receives national acclaim for museum exhibit projectBy ED MCMENAMIN
DOWNERS GROVE – Fair-mount Elementary School’sfifth-grader Diana Kwak wonsecond place this month in anational competition to designa museum exhibit, after finish-ing first in the state earlier in2014.
To learn how to conceptual-ize and design an exhibit plan,Diana and the other membersof her local Children of theAmerican Revolution societywent to the Downers GroveHistorical museum, wherestaff walked them through itsexhibit on Sears kit homes.
After the museum tour,Diana, 11, and her fellow soci-ety members Kellar and Coo-per Lambeau brainstormedtheir own idea and chose“toys through the ages.”The group conceptualizedtheir unique exhibit idea,wrote a budget and planneditem procurement. Diana drewan exhibit layout on grid pa-
per and wrote the descriptionof what the different displayswould entail.
In designing the exhib-it concept, Diana said shethought about categories of
toys that remained since thebeginning of America.
“They have always hadsome type of doll, and sometype of building toy for boys,”she said. “Even in colonial
times they had little games, Iknow they played games withhoops and a spinning top.And then in the modern age,they’ve changed to Monopolyand board games.”
She said the exhibit wouldalso have monitors with videogames to round out the time-line.
The local Pierce DownersSociety of the Children of theAmerican Revolution has afew dozen members, Diana’smom, Laura Kwak said. Asa member and president ofher local society, Diana haslearned how to conduct meet-ings and participate in stateand national contests such asthe museum exhibit.
“The state level holds a
chairmanship, so at confer-ence she comes up and givesa report to the floor,” Laurasaid. “It teaches the kids pub-lic speaking, and they can runfor offices. If they choose topursue this and try to hold anational office they get swornin at Mount Vernon in Wash-ington, D.C.
To join, children must havean ancestor who participatedin the American Revolution.The Kwak family made thatdiscovery for the first timeseveral years ago, when LauraKwak’s sister researched fami-ly genealogy after the death ofher grandmother.
Her ancestor, Pain Con-verse Sr. is Diana’s oldest ver-ified patriot and has the lastname of her great-great-grand-mother. He lived in Connecti-cut during the RevolutionaryWar and is 12 generations backfrom Diana. Once childrenage out of the organization at22, they can join the Sons orDaughters of the AmericanRevolution.

Chicken coops are healthrisks for owners, neighborsTo the editor,Some Downers Grove Council
members say there is littlehealth risk or liability fromraising poultry.One needs to carefully reeval-
uate the health risks, which cango undetected for years.My family learned the hard
way when a relative wasdiagnosed with lung fungushistoplasmosis (H.capsulatum),acquired as a result of raisingchickens as a girl. She neverknew she had the disease – itlaid dormant for years – untilshe developed lymphomaand her immune system wascompromised. Fortunately, thedoctor looked for histoplasmosisbefore starting chemo for thelymphoma. The pulmonologistsaid if chemo had started with-out treating the histoplasmosisfirst, she would have died ofrespiratory failure.According to the CDC, “re-
activation of latent (inactive)histoplasmosis can occur in el-derly and immuno-compromisedindividuals years after infectionby H.capsulatum.”This disease freely lives in mid-
west soil and prospers in “soilenriched with bird droppings”and is found in “poultry houseswith dirt floors.” Chicken drop-pings are a food supply for thisfungus, which multiplies on thedroppings as air currents causeit to become airborne where itcan enter the lungs.The U.S. Public Health Service
warns compromised individ-uals to “avoid activities withincreased risk, e.g. cleaningchicken coops.”And this risk extends to the
community as the CDC explains“outbreaks of histoplasmosishave occurred among peoplewho were infected by H.Capsu-latum, even though they had nopart in the activities that causedcontaminated material tobecome aerosolized.” The 7-footdimension you are proposingputs these animals very close toneighbors.Proponents point out that very
few people get sick, but thisdisease can stay dormant untilyou need health care the most– when your immune system iscompromised from diseases likecancer, pneumonia, etc.

CD spotlights artists with mental illnessBy NATHAN LURZ
A new album produced bylocal mental health nonprof-it The Awakenings Projectasks that question by lettinga number of area artists an-swer it.
The CD, titled “Awaken-ings: Songs and Poems” isfilled with original music andspoken word creations by 16contributors with mental ill-nesses.
Though track titles such as“Focus on the Light,” “Find-ing Winter’s End,” “PTSD(Post Traumatic Stress Disor-der)” and “Crazy Cycle” seemto center on struggles withmental illness, many songsdon’t directly address thecommon theme that broughtthe artists together.
That’s part of the point,said producer, musician andAwakenings board memberMandy Rakow.
“There is an ongoingtheme for the subject matter
for anything “Awakenings”does – recovery – and I thinkthat definitely comes throughin the pieces that peoplechose, but some people justpicked stuff that was fun andtheir favorite,” said Rakow,who suffers from extreme de-pression.
“We just wanted to high-light the abilities that peo-ple with mental disabilitieshave.”
The Awakenings Projecthas offered similar opportu-nities for more than 15 years.The Wheaton-based group be-gan when what was supposedto be a one-time show tookshape as a nonprofit. Today,the project has an annual lit-erary magazine, an Elgin artstudio and regular exhibits,
including one that openedApril 25 at North Central Col-lege in Naperville.
Robert Lundin, a GlenEllyn resident, Awakeningsco-founder and mental healthspecialist at the DuPageCounty Health Department,said he became interested inthe idea of art as an outlet forthose with mental illnessesafter reading a book on thesubject.
“Hemingway, Van Gogh,there are dozens with mentalillnesses that come to mindthat achieved artistic bril-liance,” he said. “I decidedto put it out there and seehow good of artists we couldfind.”
By celebrating the music,art and stories of those withmental illnesses, their talentis the focus, instead of theiroft stigmatized conditions.
“We hoped with ‘Awaken-ings’ to give some people ...the identification of ‘artist’or ‘writer’ or ‘musician,’ ” hesaid.

Lions Club donation supportsvision screenings in District 58
SUBURBAN LIFE MEDIA
DOWNERS GROVE – Dis-trict 58’s school nurses nowcan screen students for poten-tial vision issues more quicklyand easily thanks to the Down-ers Grove Lions Club, whichrecently donated $2,500 to helpcover the cost of two Optic 5000Vision Screeners, according toa press release from District 58.
Last year, two of District58’s school nurses, Susan Do-nahue and Ann Brinkman,spoke with the Lions Clubabout the screenings that takeplace in District 58 and showedclub members the machinesthat are used.
At that time, District 58 hadsix machines that were sharedamong its 13 schools, whichmeant precious time waswasted as the machines weretransported from one buildingto another and then had to bepowered up and often re-cal-ibrated before they could beused for screenings.
Club member Angie Klein-felder, a former teacher, was
immediately struck by thememory of the single visionscreening machine that hadbeen shared among all of theschools in the district whereshe worked.
“The Lions Club was look-ing for additional ways tosupport and partner with theDowners Grove community,and this sounded like a per-fect project for the club to takeon to benefit the schools,” shesaid.
The club donated the mon-ey in late March, and the twonew machines were deliverednot long after. One of the newmachines will stay at HerrickMiddle School, and the otherat O’Neill Middle School.
“This sounded likea perfect project
for the club to take onto benefit the schools.”

Those lazy, hazy, crazydays of summer are not faraway. And the learning,adventure and fun that comewith reading always are closeat hand at the Downers GrovePublic Library.
When we put all the piecestogether, out will come someexciting summer readingprograms for kids of all ages,teens and adults. Summerreaders will experience the de-lights of discovering new bookfavorites. They’ll also earn re-wards like special paperbackbooks, ice cream, popcorn,movie tickets and more.
Here are a few of the par-ticulars:
• The Read-to-Me Club isfor young children not yetreading independently. Theycan listen and look at booksread aloud by adults, and theycan, of course, sign up fortheir own library cards.
• The Red Readers’ Clubwelcomes readers fromSchool District 58 and Down-ers Grove parochial schoolstudents in kindergartenthrough third grade, whilethe Orange Readers’ Club isfor students in grades fourthrough eight.
• Teens in grades ninethrough 12 will have theirown club, whose activitiesinclude reading, social mediaand online participation inthe library’s Minecraft game.
We don’t want to neglectthe adult readers who like achallenge. Club participantswill be able to earn chancesat a drawing for restaurantgift cards along with othergoodies.
Each club will have its ownset of goals, milestones andrewards, organized aroundthe theme of “Once Upon aTail” [Tale], identified bythree tailed mascots: a cam-
ouflaging iguana, a wide-eyedlemur and a brightly-coloredpeacock.
Best of all, summer read-ing will be organized andsupported by the DownersGrove Public Library’s acelibrarians. Staff members willvisit the schools to provide in-formation and encourage kidsto sign up, beginning May 19.
While we’ll be focusingon Downers Grove PublicLibrary cardholders, ourneighboring communitylibraries will be offering sim-ilar programs. Throughoutthe summer, those DownersGrove librarians will suggestgreat books, spearhead pro-grams and activities and handout the prizes. Maybe they’lleven get a chance to read afew books themselves.
As the library’s building isunder renovation in the nextfew months, summer readingmay include some specialchallenges. It will be especial-ly useful for our patrons totalk with staff members. We’llhelp you navigate the con-struction site, find the books,music, video and technologyyou want, and make sure thesummer of 2014 is a memora-ble one for all.

A DuPage County Boardnominee is facing three misde-meanor charges after a domes-tic disturbance was reportedrecently in Wisconsin.
Jeremy Custer, 25, of Glen-dale Heights hasbeen chargedwith disorderlyconduct, crim-inal damage toproperty andresisting or ob-structing an of-ficer, accordingto records fromthe WisconsinCourt System Circuit CourtAccess.
The Democratic candidatefor County Board District 4was arrested after midnightApril 15 in Madison, Wis.,Madison Police Departmentspokesman Joel DeSpain said.His next court date is sched-uled May 27, records show.
A 26-year-old woman whoidentified herself as Custer’sgirlfriend called police short-ly after the couple had a fight,DeSpain said. Custer allegedlyknocked over a bookshelf andwas yelling.
“She did not allege that hedid anything physical to her,”DeSpain said. “She was fright-ened, so she called the police.”
DeSpain said Custer al-legedly did not “overly resist,but did resist a little bit” andtherefore was charged with ob-struction.
“I regret that this incidentoccurred, but my girlfriend andI are committed to one anoth-er and are moving forward, to-gether,” Custer said in an emailto Suburban Life. “We are look-ing forward to putting this per-sonal matter behind us.”
Custer added he would re-main in the race for District4 and the event would “notdiminish (his) ability to servethe working families and busi-nesses of the 4th District.”
The chief of staff for stateSen. Tom Cullerton, D-VillaPark, Custer defeated M. MoonKhan in the Democratic prima-ry last month. He now is facingincumbent Republican GrantEckhoff, who recently beatthree challengers to retain hisspot on the ballot for the No-vember general election.

ELMHURST – As I approached HB Jones, I onlyhad one goal in mind: toclimb Mount Everest. Let meexplain.
My research into the Elmhurst restaurant called HBJones, aka Hamburger Jones,started last month. Normally,I rarely research an unfamiliar restaurant beforehand,other than to see if there’sa dress code, but the storiessurrounding HB Jones and itsmenu are as entertaining asthe eatery itself.
A backstory has been created around the adventuresof fictional character HoratioB. Jones. One tale has him descending Mount Everest untilhis expedition is snowed in,and then credits his “unyielding hunger for his favoritefood” for inspiring his trek tosafety. Back at base camp, hewas rewarded with a burger of“Everest proportions.”
For my adventure, Ichecked the online menu andwent to the burger sectionwhere I saw the “JonesClimbs Everest” burger –three 10ounce patties, cheesesand an array of toppings,accompanied by fries. Thiswas the burger waiting forJones after he returned, andif I finished one, I would getmy name on the wall and aTshirt.
At that moment, it becamemy goal to consume that burger and make the metaphoricalclimb.
As I walked in with hungeron my side, the first thing Inoticed was the atypical setting. The restaurant featuresa greenhousestyle section,where light floods throughwalls of windows to turn theexpansive dining area into acreatively inviting space. Therestaurant is replete with bigscreen TVs and colorful decortouches.
As staff escorted us to atable, I started having secondthoughts about my contemplated burger challenge, whenI saw the copious amounts offood others were enjoying.
It wasn’t just the burgers,but the sandwiches, too, that
were generous in size, rangingfrom the Cajun chicken sandwich to skirt steak and a classic BLT. More than 20 saucesprovide tantalizing options toshake up flavor profiles.
Beyond meatdominateddishes including ribs, therestaurant has a variety ofchoices, such as a salad bar,complemented by an arrayof craft beer and draft options. The connecting pub
room whips up cocktails andmilkshakes. One almost gaveme brain freeze, because Icouldn’t put down the richvanilla concoction.
After the last slurp, I knewI wouldn’t make the summit ofEverest on this visit – mostlybecause I couldn’t pass up anappetizer and shake. For added decadence, the menu alsohighlights shakes fortifiedwith rum.
I started with the zestychicken strip appetizer, andthen ordered the “CountryRoad to a Coronary” burger, atasty melding of melted cheddar and juicy beef amped upby the creamy yolk of a sunnysideup egg. I couldn’t resistpicking mac and cheese as asatisfying side dish, whichhelped push the summit justout of reach.
Meanwhile, my momworked on her British burger,named for crisscrossed baconstrips meant to resemble theUnion Jack flag, and commented that the meat wascooked perfectly with just theright amount of bacon. We finished off the meal with a pieceof killer chocolate cake.
The enthusiastic friendliness of the staff and the warmatmosphere make it a fundestination.
Not only do I suggest youcheck out HB Jones for theaddictive comfort food, I vowto return by this summer totry for the Everest burger,and claim that Tshirt and myname on the wall as “Mr. E.Dyner” with all the glory thatgoes with it.
I could also go for anothermilkshake.
The Mystery Diner is anewsroom employee at Suburban Life Media. The diner’sidentity is not revealed tothe restaurant staff before orduring the meal. Only positivedining experiences will resultin published reviews.

DOWNERS GROVE – Withthe ball floating in mid-air to-ward him, there was only onething on Mike Schmitt’s mind.
“Get the pass and put itdown,” Schmitt said. “Swingdeep and let it fly.”
Schmitt’s kill on matchpoint secured Downers GroveSouth’s win against Lake Parkin the championship match ofSouth’s own Mustang Invita-tional boys volleyball tourna-ment Saturday.
“One of our team goals is togo undefeated at home, so wesaw this as an opportunity tocontinue that,” Schmitt said.
Not only did the Mustangs,who improved to 19-4 overallwith a 5-0 run at the tourney,protect their home court, theyalso claimed their first title attheir invite.
“I’ve been a coach in theprogram for a while, and Idon’t think we’ve ever won it,”head coach Kurt Steuer said.“It feels great. Every time weplay at home we talk aboutprotecting our home court,and that’s what we did today.”
A Lake Park error late inthe third set put South ahead23-20, but the Lancers scoredthe next two points on a pairof DGS miscues. Schmitt’s killmade it 24-22, and after anoth-er Mustang error, he finishedoff the tournament run withan emphatic swing for the win.
The Mustangs also start-ed the tournament in finefashion with a two-set winagainst Downers Grove North.Schmitt tallied seven kills,Will Tischler added five kills,Tyler Zowaski had 10 digs andJordan Pawlicki dished out
18 assists and had four acesagainst the Trojans. South alsowon a crosstown clash againstNorth earlier in the season.
“I feel like we knew how tomatch up with them [DGN],”Pawlicki said. “We ran our hit-ters and got some big kills thatkind of got the team going. Wefed off the energy of each other.”
The Trojans bounced backfrom their loss against Southwith a pool play win againstFenton. They went on to finishthe tourney with a 3-2 recordand a fifth-place showing inthe silver bracket after defeat-ing Willowbrook 25-19, 23-25,25-21 in their final match.
“We faced the eventu-al champ in the first round,which was tough,” North headcoach Mark Wasik said. “Wewere so down and out afterthe served us off the court, butwe learned from that match. Ithink we learned to stay even-keeled no matter who wasacross the net.”
Wasik said Mike Mierzwa,Liam Reidy and Tom Sarverhad strong showings through-out the tournament, duringwhich North improved to 10-9overall.

New football rules will haveminimal impact for area teams
When the Illinois HighSchool Association intro-duced changes to preseasonfootball practice in May of2013 in hopes of making thesport safer, some local coach-es predicted that was just thebeginning.
Turns out they were right.Last week, the IHSA an-
nounced that a by-law whicheliminates full pads andfull contact (full contact isdefined as football drills orgame situations where liveaction occurs) during the 25days of summer camp passedby a 170-87 vote by principalsand athletic directors fromacross the state. Practiceswith helmets and shoulderpads also will now be limitedto 14 hours a week and amax-imum of 15 out of the 25 daysof the summer.
“We believe this revisionminimizes risk to footballstudent-athletes while allow-ing for the teaching of appro-priate fundamentals,” IHSAExecutive Director MartyHickman said on the IHSAwebsite. “This is another im-portant step in making high-school football as safe as pos-sible while putting all of ourschools on an even playingfield regarding football activ-ities during the summer.”
A l t hough the IHSAchanged the rules regardingsummer practice, the move
won’t change the way mostcoaches do things during thesummer.
“It’s not going to effect usat all,” Downers Grove Southhead coach Mark Molinarisaid. “We never put kids infull pads. We’ve always doneair drills [without tackling],but in the summer we’ve nev-er gone to the ground.
“I think a lot of highschools did full pads, but Idon’t know how many didfull contact. Some teamsmight be upset about it, butfor us, I think we’ll be allright.”
Whi le Mol inari saidthe change won’t effect histeam’s practice routine andhe’s all for player safety, healso did play devil’s advocateon the other side of the issue.
“I think kids are saferwith full pads on, so if you’renot doing full contact and go-ing to the ground, then whatis the issue?” he said. “Butwe’ll follow the rules and dothings as we’re supposed todo them.”
Paul Parpet, Addison
Trail’s longtime coach, anassistant at Downers GroveNorth the last four seasonsand Lisle’s head coach start-ing this summer, had noth-ing but positive commentsabout the new rule.
“I think it’s a smartmove,” Parpet said. “Thesummer starts June 10, andyou could potentially havekids in full pads going fullspeed right away. Somethinghad to be done. I think it’s agood idea.”
Parpet said he never wentfull tilt during his tenureat AT, and while he was atDGN, the Trojans never didany full-contact drills inthe summer. The new ruleswon’t impact his first seasonwith Lisle.
“It’s not going to effectthings one bit,” he said. “I re-member the days when in thesummer you couldn’t haveany pads, not even helmets,and we survived.”
Staff writer Scott Schmidcontributed to this report
“It’s not going to effect us at all. We never put kidsin full pads. We’ve always done air drills [withouttackling], but in the summer we’ve never gone to
the ground.Mark Molinari

ATHLETE OF THE WEEK
Why Pawlicki was selected:
Downers Grove SouthSenior | Volleyball
JORDANPAWLICKI
Pawlicki played a key role for the Mustangs asthey won the title at their own tournament over
the weekend.
SuburbanLife
This Athleteof theWeek is
brought to you by
Downers Grove South’sboys volleyball team finishedon top last year, but even thatteamwasn’t able to do whatthis year’s team did – win thetitle at South’s ownMustangInvitational. Setter JordanPawlicki helped South to thetitle with his ability to run theoffense and serve efficiently.During amatch against Fen-ton, theMarymount Universi-ty recruit served five aces inone rotation, and he dished out41 assists in the championshipmatch. Pawlicki, the Sears Ap-pliance andHardware Athleteof theWeek, spoke with Sub-urban Life sports editor JasonRossi about this year’s teamand the key to serving an ace.
How does this year’s teamcompare to last year’s team atthis point in the season?
We lost a lot of firepower
from last year, but this yearI feel like we have great teamchemistry again like we alwaysdo.We have guys that want toplay andwant to win and dothe same thing again.
What’s the key to an ace?Basically the key is to
get the passers outside theirstance and try andmovethem around. It’s not alwaysabout hitting it hard but about[serving] the seams of the otherteam so that there’s more ofa chance of them shanking itthan returning it.
Do you like setting a big pointor getting an acemore?
I’m all about assists, so Ilike setting upmy big hitterslikeMike [Schmidt] andWill[Tischler] to put the ball away.It gets the teammore excited soI like doing that.
