GENEVA – The Geneva Ac-ademic Foundation recentlyapproved 11 grants of nearly$35,000 for requests by GenevaDistrict 304 teachers.
The foundation is a non-profit organization that raisesmoney to pay for educationalextras that are not includedin the school district’s budget.GAF President Laura Zuzulysaid this year, teachers made22 grant requests of more than$184,000.
“It was simply not possible
for GAF to fund everything,”
Zuzuly wrote in an email.
“GAF is limited in the amount
of grants that it can fund by
the amount of money that it
raises for the annual fund in
the year prior to the award-
ing of the grants. ... Our fund-
raising is very, very import-
ant.”
Many of the grants not
funded were large technolo-
gy requests, and some were
items the school district plans
to purchase on its own, ac-
cording to Zuzuly’s email.
Three of the 11 grants ap-
proved were for Geneva Mid-
dle School North and South.
They covered 20 hot plates for
hands-on science activities
and 24 ASUS Tab 8 tablets,
which will allow students to
see a video of a teacher solv-
ing example problems while
the teacher is giving personal
attention to other students.
Also, there was a request
for 16 Wacom Pen Tablets for
Flipped to allow teachers to
create presentations and vid-
eos to engage and inform stu-
dents any time, anywhere.
For Geneva High School,
one Wacom Cintiq Interactive
Pen Display with Mac Mini
will allow design students to
try out technology that actu-
ally is being used in the visual
arts world and media.
Also for the high school sci-
ence classes, there will be 14
motorized carts to track cou-
plers for lab experiments in-
volving motion of objects and
forces of motion.
The GAF grants also fund-
ed four sets of seven primate
skulls to be used for study-
ing connections and common
ancestry among organisms
for the biology and anatomy
and physiology students. The
skulls also will help students
understand the relationship
between structure and func-
tion in living organisms.
Another grant covered
transforming the high school
auditorium into a cabaret for
a day for French and choral
students to experience how
music reflects the culture,
economy and attitudes of a
time.
Also, another GAF grant
will pay for two sets of new
camera studio equipment for
the high school TV studio to
update 10-year-old equipment.
Harrison Street Elementa-
ry School will get two stand-
up desks and stools for stu-
dents who have a hard time
sitting for any length of time.
And all elementary schools
will get replacement tunnel
mats for the Heart Adventure
Course, which allows chil-
dren to move through four
chambers of the heart in a
larger-than-life setting. The
tunnel mats replace the orig-
inal purchase by the founda-
tion 17 years ago.
The foundation also pro-
vided a grant to cover sup-
port costs for the PRIDE vol-
unteers, the senior volunteer
program in the schools.
The foundation is seeking
to increase its Viking Voyage
to Excellence Endowment
Campaign to $1 million to pro-
vide a more stable source of
revenue for grants, Zuzuly’s
email states. Information is
available online at the foun-
dation’s website, www.gafge-

Volunteers help restore habitatat Bliss Woods Forest Preserve
SUGAR GROVE – With alopper in hand, Geneva res-ident Allison Willman onSaturday was removing non-native plants, such as honey-suckle and buckthorn, fromBliss Woods Forest Preserve.
Willman said she knows theimportance of removing non-native plants from an environ-ment and letting native plantsflourish.
“It’s important to have bio-diversity,” she said.
Saturday’s event attractedseveral volunteers. Along withcutting and stacking inva-sive shrubs, they also appliedherbicide to ensure that theshrubs wouldn’t grow back.
Mary Ochsenschlager,volunteer steward for theBliss Woods Forest Preserve,has been leading habitat res-toration work days at BlissWoods for the past sevenyears. She was St. CharlesPark District’s longtime natu-ralist before she retired.
“It is worth the effort to re-move the nonnative plants andkeep spots where native plants
can grow,” Ochsenschlagersaid.
The effort for her is per-sonal, as she lives near BlissWoods.
“This is where I learned ev-erything I know,” she said.
Several of her family mem-bers were helping her Satur-day, including her grandson,John Duy, of Aurora, and herson, Andrew Ochsenschlager,
who lives in New Orleans butis back in the area during theholiday break.
“It is real nice to come backand see the difference,” saidDuy, who works for the St.Charles Park District.
Andrew Ochsenschlagersaid his mother passed to hima love and respect for nature.
GENEVA – Five-year-oldEvie Barrett didn’t knowwhere her mother was takingher Sunday until they arrivedat It’s A Girl Thing, whichwas hosting an Elsa meet-and-greet.
“She found out when shegot here,” Chrissy Barrettsaid. “She was very excited.”
Based on the number ofgirls who arrived in Elsa cos-tumes, it appeared as thoughthe Geneva girl wasn’t the only“Frozen” fan in attendance.
And none appeared to hes-itate when the woman por-traying the Disney character
asked the girlsto sing the mov-ie’s signaturesong “Let It Go.”
B y t h e n ,m a n y o f t h egirls had got-ten Elsa make-overs, which in-cluded a glitterybraided hairdocourtesy of OS2Salon and somecosmetics – bluenail polish and
blue eyeshadow.Store owner Mary Sinacore
greeted parent after parent asattendees crowded inside thedowntown Geneva businessand directed the girls to aroom where they could makeElsa wands.
About 40 girls were ex-pected at the event, whichstemmed from an email fromthe Elsa impersonator aboutbeing available for parties andSinacore wanting to do some-thing for the Four Paws Ani-mal Foundation, she said.
An animal rescue support-er herself, Sinacore said shewas touched and impressed bythe care Four Paws presidentand founder Arleen Braunprovides.
The foundation has accept-ed sick and elderly felinesfrom local animal controlagencies, most recently Chica-go Animal Care and Control,Braun said.
In the past four months,
bills have “really skyrocket-
ed,” she said, noting one cat
– Rambo – had its right eye re-
moved because a BB pellet was
lodged in it.
Although the foundation
fundraises, Braun said, “We
put a lot of our own money
into it.”
Sinacore said a portion of
Sunday’s event will benefit
Four Paws.
Braun said that news was
welcomed.
“My God, it was wonder-
ful,” she said.

DeKALB – The St. CharlesEast boys basketball team hasto wait until 2015 to lace ’em upagain.
That was about the onlydownside at the close of a glo-rious week for the Saints at theChuck Dayton Holiday Tour-nament, culminating with Sat-urday night’s 76-52 win againsthost DeKalb in the champion-ship game.
East (12-1) claimed its 10thstraight victory and won itsfour tournament games by anaverage of 31 points in its de-but season in the tradition-richDeKalb event.
“It’s a blast,” East seniorguard Jake Asquini said. “Win-ning’s always fun. Our teamgets along so well, on and offthe court, so when we’re win-ning, it just makes it even bet-ter.”
The Saints encountered pre-cious little resistance through-out the tournament but somematerialized during the sec-ond quarter with senior pointguard and tournament MVPCole Gentry sidelined with hissecond foul.
DeKalb (8-2) quickly slashedEast’s lead from 31-20 to 31-28,prompting a Saints timeout.But East steadied itself in ahurry, slapping the Barbs witha 15-2 run to close the secondquarter, featuring a rimmed-in3-pointer by James McQuillanto end the half with a 46-30 lead.
“I think that was reallyimportant,” McQuillan said.“That was one of our first timesin the tournament we facedsome adversity so for us to stepup and answer their run washuge, and I think is just a tes-tament of how good we can beas a team.”
Asquini went 6 of 10 from3-point land and led the Saintswith 20 points. He accountedfor half of the Saints’ 12 3-pointmakes on the night.
“My teammates always doan amazing job of finding methe ball,” Asquini said. “Theycreated most of my shots so Ican’t thank them enough. ButI like this gym. I get a good feelfor it once I see one or two goin.”
McQuillan added 18 pointsand took a leading role runningthe offense with Gentry out forthe end of the second quarterand almost all of the third quar-ter with foul trouble.
“I thought we had a reallygood gameplan against Cole,”DeKalb coach Al Biancalanasaid. “We know that he’s goingto make some shots but we re-ally wanted to be dedicated totaking away his penetration.We just did not do a good job onMcQuillan. McQuillan contin-ually drove the ball, straight-
line drives he got to the basket,and I thought that was the dif-ference. … He got into the paintany time he wanted, and thatreally hurt us.”
Gentry was held to ninepoints but the Saints againflashed the depth that’s enabledthem to rip off a double-digitwin streak.
Center Jack Bronec and Mc-Quillan joined Gentry on theall-tournament team while re-serve guard Jake Clodi scoredseven of his 10 points duringthe second quarter.
“I’ll be honest, I was kind ofglad Cole was in foul troublebecause we need to do thingswithout him on the floor,”East coach Pat Woods said. “Ijust think the depth that wehave, we got a little flusteredfor about 45 seconds, but weregrouped and went on a [big]run and hit some 3s.”
McQuillan’s defense im-pressed Woods throughout thetournament and his ability tolend ball-handling support toGentry and backup point guardJeremy Champine also caught
his coach’s eye.“ J a m e s i s i n c r e d i b l y
multi-faceted,” Woods said.“He can play four positionson the floor, and that’s whatmakes him so versatile. He’svery smooth the way he doesit, too.”
Moline won the tourna-ment’s third-place game overGlenbrook North, while Mar-mion fell to Hampshire in thefifth-place game of the 16-teamevent, 58-52. The Cadets wereled by 19 points from guard Jor-dan Glasgow.

LOMBARD – The first min-ute of the Geneva girls basket-ball team’s matchup with Ben-et proved to be a microcosmof the things to come for theVikings.
Benet senior forward EmilySchramek sank a 3-point shoton the Redwings’ first pos-session of the game, and thenjunior guard Kathleen Doylesnagged Geneva’s ensuing in-bound pass and finished withan easy layup to put Benet up,5-0, less than 60 seconds intothe contest.
A sour start was too muchfor Geneva to overcome, as itfell, 69-52, to Benet on Satur-day at the Montini ChristmasTournament. The Redwings(15-0) unleashed a furious full-court press that netted a flurryof turnovers for Geneva (11-1)that set Benet up with easybaskets in transition. Benetquickly built a 29-15 lead in thefirst quarter and refused to re-linquish control.
Although both teams cameinto the game unbeaten, Gene-va coach Sarah Meadows knewBenet would present an enor-mous challenge.
“We knew we were goingto have turnovers,” Meadowssaid. “Would I have liked towin? Absolutely. I would haveliked the margin to be a littleless, but overall I’m glad withthe heart we played with, wenever stopped, we never quit,and I would like to play themagain.”
Despite facing a 20-pointdeficit at halftime, Genevacontinued to fight. Led by se-nior forward Abby Novak,who paced the Vikings with 21points, Geneva outscored Ben-et in the second half, but stillfell short. Novak thought thather team’s resilience was keydespite the lopsided score.
“We haven’t really played
a team like that, so it’s defi-nitely something different,”Novak said. “At the beginningwe were a little shaky, but wehandled it well towards the endof the game and, like I said, itwas a big difference from theweek of games we’ve had. It’sgood for us to see where we are,see what we can improve on, sothat helped us out.”
Geneva played without6-foot-2-inch sophomore for-ward Grace Loberg, who hada volleyball conflict. Loberg’sabsence required other playersto step in to fill her void. Fresh-man guards Margaret Whitley(11 points) and Stephanie Hart(eight) provided steady scoringfrom the backcourt while No-vak took care of business in thepaint.
“Of course we miss Grace,no question about it,” Meadowssaid. “We’re not a team that’sjust going to stalemate on that,we’re not going to think aboutit, we’ve got to move on.”
Meadows believes that No-vak’s production will not slow
down in the foreseeable future.“Abby has played two
games back-to-back that arelights out,” Meadows said.“Super proud of her. She’s ca-pable of that honestly everygame. She’s playing huge forus. That’s what we need.”
Benet senior guard EmilyEshoo led all scorers with 24points, and she was comple-mented by contributions fromDoyle (17) and Schramek (14).
Although it was dishearten-ing to lose by such a wide mar-gin, Meadows is confident thatthe Vikings will benefit fromplaying such a quality oppo-nent.
“This is exactly what wewanted,” Meadows said. “Wewanted to win the first gameand go to the right (side ofthe tournament bracket). Wewanted to play some competi-tive games. We want this expe-rience, we want the experienceout of this important game.”
The Vikings will continuetournament play today againstHuntley.

Dear Abby: I’m a single mom.
My child’s father has refused
to take any responsibility
since before the baby was
born. I never cut ties because
I’m sure my son will someday
long for and want to know his
real father.
Even though he renounced
his responsibility, he took it
back and said he’d try to be
there for my child. We are
geographically many miles
apart, and I no longer expect
or hope for any possibility of
a reconciliation – which is
fine. I just never wanted to
seem like someone who has
been dumped, so I reason that
we’re cool.
Abby, he never calls to ask
how our child is. What should
I do? Should I cut ties with
him forever, or must I contin-
ue to be the one to message
him informing him about the
milestones? Should I keep
this connection going or let it
go? – Confused Single Mom,Yokohama, Japan
Dear Confused: A man who
“tries” to be responsible for
his children pays at least
token child support to ensure
that they are fed, clothed and
educated. Nowhere in your
letter did you indicate that
your child’s father has done
that – or intends to.
If you want to stay in touch
so your child will have an ad-
dress to reach him when he’s
older, I think that’s laudable.
But if you’re expecting he will
suddenly develop an interest
– or a conscience – the pattern
that has been set seems pretty
well established, so don’t get
your hopes up.
Dear Abby: We’re in the
middle of a dispute with my
mother-in-law. She insisted
on using place cards at our
family’s Thanksgiving dinner
to indicate where she wanted
us to sit. I felt it was con-
trolling because it was only a
small group of people. When
I asked her why she needed a
seating plan, she said it would
be “fun.”
While it ended up that we
all sat where we wanted and
everyone conversed nicely,
she said her holiday was “ru-
ined” because I ridiculed her
for wanting to use place cards.
What is your opinion? – Musi-cal Chairs in New England
DearMusical Chairs: One ofthe perks of hosting a sit-down dinner is having theprivilege of controlling theseating, regardless of whetherguests are friends or relatives.For you to have made such ascene that you ruined yourhostess’s evening was rude.
Dear Abby: I recently gotmarried. My husband goesthrough my purse, my papers,my jewelry, my clothes – andeven my underwear. He saysthat as my husband he has theright to do that. He says I amwrong to object.
What are your thoughts onthis? I feel like although I’ma wife, I am still a person andhave a right to be respected.How would you react? – Con-fused Jane In The South
Dear Confused Jane: I wouldreact by calmly asking myhusband why he thought itwas necessary to invade myprivacy like that and if hethought I was unfaithful, andI’d tell him I regarded it as athreat to the marriage. I’msure he would react the sameway if you searched throughhis belongings and the historyon his phone and computer.
What he is doing is a redflag. It’s an indication thathe’s insecure and controlling,and spouses who behave thatway have been known toescalate to domestic violence.Marriage counseling NOWmight head it off.
Dear Readers: If you plan tobe out celebrating New Year’sEve on Wednesday and planto drink, PLEASE arrangefor a designated driver totransport you. It could saveyour life or someone else’s.The American AutomobileAssociation in some – not all –communities offers a safe-rideprogram for members andnonmembers.

CROSSWORD SUDOKU BRIDGE by Phillip Alder
CELEBRITY CIPHER
PUZZLES
Sebastian Bach, a Canadianheavy metal singer, said, “So, itended up being what you havethere, seven songs brand new and10 live songs, which is a good mix.”
It is not often a good mix at thebridge table when 10 tricks arerequired and only seven trumpsare held, especially when thosetrumps are divided 4-3. But if youtry to find 10 winners, maybe asuccessful line will be apparent.
In this deal, South is in fourspades. West leads the heart aceand continues with the heart king.What should declarer do?
West would normally haveheld an eight-card suit for hisfour-heart opening, but he hopedto silence his opponents. Northhad too many points to pass andnothing better to do than double.If South had passed, the penaltywould have been 500 for downtwo. But hoping that his partnerhad four-card spade support, headvanced with four spades.
South ruffed the second heart,cashed his spade ace, and led aspade to dummy’s queen. West’sdiscard caused declarer to deliber-ate for a few moments.
South eventually realized thathe needed to take these 10 tricks:three clubs, two diamonds and fivetrumps.
Declarer cashed dummy’sdiamond ace-king and club king-queen, then played a club to hisace. When East had to follow suit,South ruffed a club with dummy’sspade king and called for the heartnine.
If East had ruffed high with hisspade jack, declarer would havediscarded; and when East threwhis last diamond, South ruffedfor his 10th trick via a coup enpassant.
