MAPLE PARK – KanelandHigh School sophomore AndriyMcFarlin loves the creativity ofworking with clay.

“Ceramics class was my fa-vorite class last semester,” hesaid. “I could go and create some-thing rather than copy word toword out of a textbook. I like be-ing able to take something thatcame directly from the earth andmake it into a usable and reus-able art piece.”

His ceramic house was one ofmany student art works on dis-play Sunday at the 15th annualKaneland Community Fine ArtsFestival produced by the newlynamed Kaneland Arts Initiativeat Kaneland High School.

The house doubles as a cookiejar.

“The whole idea was to makea Christmas gift for my grand-mother,” McFarlin said.

Besides display his artworkat the festival, he was sellingcancer awareness bracelets toraise money for the student

group Prevention of DangerousActions, which promote healthychoices and discourage destruc-tive behaviors. The group israising money to put togethercomfort bags for cancer patientsto “brighten their day while theyare in the hospital,” McFarlinsaid.

This year, the Geneva-basedChanging Children’s WorldsFoundation sponsored an artcontest in participation with theKaneland Arts Initiative. Thecontest generated 35 entries,said Kimberly Svevo-Cianci, thegroup’s president and executive

director.Peter Jefferson’s ceramic

house took first place in the highschool category.

“The house represents lovefor your children because itprovides shelter for them,” Jef-ferson stated in the narrative ac-companying the artwork.

Svevo-Cianci said her grouptries to help parents better com-municate with their kids.

“When parents are communi-cating more positively with theirkids, the kids listen differently,”she said. “They are more attunedto their children’s feelings.”

Strong winds and darkclouds Saturday did not stopthe first helicopter egg dropevent at Faith Baptist ChurchMill Creek.

A red, four-seat light heli-copter safely dropped about2,000 Easter eggs into a fenced-off area west of the church,1S455 S. Mill Creek Drive nearGeneva. Children throughouta crowd of about 675 peoplecheered every time anotherbatch of eggs fell from 35 feetin the air.

“It was super cool,” saidJoanna Hellyer of Yorkville.“The kids really enjoyed see-ing the helicopter come in anddrop all the eggs.”

Hellyer came to the eventwith her two children, twonieces and her mother. Thiswas her family’s first time atan egg hunt with a helicop-ter and the group’s first timeat Faith Baptist Church MillCreek.

G r a n t D i a m o n d , t h echurch’s head pastor, said heended up meeting several newfaces beyond his congregationof about 80 people, includingresidents from DuPage andDeKalb counties. The eventwas held partly to change theperception for younger gener-ations that churches are judg-mental places, Diamond said.

“There were lots of new op-portunities to share the loveof God with people and invitethem out to Easter,” Diamondsaid after the event.

Diamond and the parentsadmitted they were nervousabout the helicopter andweather before the event.High winds forced Grant Mac-donald, head pilot at ChicagoHelicopter Express, to changecourse so that he could landon the church grounds safely,Diamond said.

Someone dressed as theEaster Bunny emerged fromthe helicopter and waved toshouting children before theeggs were loaded up. After thebright orange barrier fencewas moved several feet southto Main Street, the helicoptertook off and circled above the

church building before mak-ing the egg drop.

The church put togethera good event that had warmweather, said Joe Rodriguez,who walked over from hisMill Creek home with his fam-ily to watch the event. Chil-dren were able to enter theegg hunt area after the heli-copter made the egg drop andlanded again.

Rodriguez thought the eggdrop and hunt had been wellorganized.

Grant said the day wentsmoothly because of the 40volunteers, including thosewho filled eggs, as well asevent partners Chick-fil-Aand the Mill Creek Golf Club.

“We look forward to doingit again next year,” Diamondsaid.

ST. CHARLES – Genevagirls soccer goalkeeper Sa-mantha Hauser missed threematches while recoveringfrom mono, including theVikings’ only loss so far thisseason.

“At the very end I was justso ready to get back,” Hausersaid. “All my energy was backso I was just happy with that.”

Her teammates are awful-ly glad Hauser is back, too, apoint underscored Saturday.Hauser sparkled throughoutGeneva’s 1-0 victory againsthost St. Charles East as the Vi-kings won the Rose AugsburgDrach Invitational.

Hauser made severalstrong saves to keep theSaints at bay, including a pairof attempts from Darcy Cun-ningham, one of which on abreakaway from a sharp an-gle.

“I was pretty confident onthe breakaway,” said Haus-er, who returned earlier thisweek for the start of the tour-nament. “The one off of Cun-ningham’s [free kick], it wentthrough a couple of their legsand I grabbed it, somehow Igot on that ball, I’d say thatwas my No. 1 save.”

Capitalizing on favorablefirst-half wind conditions, Ge-neva (5-1-1) scored with 12:43to play in the opening halfwhen junior Mary Landryscored on a rebound after Eastgoalkeeper Kendra Sheehanmade the first stop on a Court-ney Lardas shot.

Landry said, “me andCourtney, we have a historyof working well together.”

It was the sixth goal of theseason for Landry, one of thearea’s breakout performersthis season.

Landry opted not to playclub soccer during the offsea-son, which was a concern, butshe’s returned to the game in-vigorated.

“I didn’t play during theclub season, so that was defi-nitely hard,” Landry said.“Coming back, I just knewthat since I was gone for allthat time, I knew I had to fo-cus, just focus on my touch es-

pecially and keeping my headdown on the shots.”

Protecting a 1-0 lead andwith the wind shifting toEast’s favor, Geneva coachMegan Owens opted to take aconservative approach for thesecond half and rely on herseasoned defense.

“We did play very defen-sive in the second half, whichended up working for us,”Owens said. “But we switchedour formation to make it moredefensive just to kind of coun-teract the wind factor. But mygirls worked hard. It was abattle.”

East coach Paul Jennisoncredited Hauser’s play whileadamantly endorsing histeam’s performance.

“As far as I’m concerned,

that’s not a game we shouldbe coming out of and losing,”Jennison said. “I think that’sa game we should be winning.I think the way you’re meantto play soccer, we’re playingthe right way, and we’re goingto keep building on that.”

Both East (4-1-2) and Ge-neva entered the final day oftournament play having wononce and tied once earlier inthe week.

The Augsburg Drach titlewas Geneva’s first during Ow-ens’ tenure.

“They had a chance tomake history,” Owens said.“The seniors had that oppor-tunity. It was in their hands,and they worked hard to getback into it after tying ourfirst game of the tournament.”

KANELAND 12-19, BATAVIA 2-5

Knights get out of hittingfunk in sweep of Bulldogs

By JARED [email protected]

MAPLE PARK – The Kane-land softball team broke outof its hitting slump in a majorway Saturday, pounding out30 hits to sweep Batavia in anonconference doubleheader.

The Knights topped theBulldogs, 12-2 and 19-5, in twofive-inning games.

“Every team goes througha funk and we were in one ofthose funks,” Kaneland coachBrian Willis said. “Today wehit our way out of it.”

Slotting second basemanMorgan Weber at the top ofthe batting order was one ofthe keys to the Knights’ offen-sive resurgence.

“I thought Morgan did anice job of leading off for us,”Willis said. “It was the firsttime I put her in the leadoffrole. I thought she did an ex-cellent job of getting on baseand setting the table for ouroffense.”

The freshman was onlyretired once during her nineplate appearances for the day.Weber collected three hits, in-cluding her second home run

of the season, drew four walksand scored six runs.

“I think my confidence lev-el was up there a little morethan in the first week and Iwas keeping my eye on theball and keeping my shoulderdown,” Weber said.

T h e s e c o n d b a s e m a nknocked a Rachael Loves-trand pitch over the centerfield fence for a solo home runin the second inning of thefirst game.

“That felt pretty great. Ihit one yesterday, too,” We-ber said. “The pitch was rightdown the middle and a was aperfect changeup so I stayeddown and took it all the way.”

Kaneland third basemanPaige Kuefler also had a goodday at the plate, going 5 for7. The junior collected threedoubles, a triple and a single.

A Knights six-run fourthinning broke open the firstgame. Eleven Kaneland play-ers batted and made the mostof five hits, three walks andBatavia errors to take an11-2 lead. The contested end-ed in the next inning whenpinch-hitter Courtney Davissingled home Lanie Callaghan

and gave her team a 10-runlead.

In the nightcap, Kaneland(6-5) scored early and oftenagainst the Bulldogs (0-6).The Knights batted aroundin the first three innings andsent 11 hitters to the plate inthe fourth. Kaneland runnerscrossed the plate five times inthree of the first four innings.In the second, the team onlyscored four runs.

“I give Kaneland a lot ofcredit. They hit the ball hardtoday,” Batavia coach LupeCastellanos said. “We hadsome errors today. We can’tafford to give up those little er-rors between those hard hits.”

Willis would like his teamto tighten up the defense.

“I don’t think they had anearned run today, everythingwas either booted or extrabases or something,” said thecoach. “We need to clean itup.”

Junior pitcher Angie Mor-row won the first game forthe Knights while teammateAnissa Becker earned the sec-ond victory. Lovestrand andAlyssa Klemm were tagged forthe losses.

Online communication lacks

personal touch for some usersDear Abby: I recently

exchanged pleasantriesvia email and text messag-ing with a lady I met on awebsite.

One day later, I receiveda message from her statingshe’d prefer our method ofcommunication be kept toemail and texting becauseshe wasn’t much of a phonetalker.

Over the past fewmonths, I have been out anumber of times with otherwomen who also expressedtheir preference to keepcommunication limited toemail and texting. Is thisbecoming common?

I may be old-fashionedbecause I feel interpersonalrelationships – especiallyinitially – should includethe element of voice inflec-tion. I think it’s more effec-tive than a guessing gamethat only a full page of textcan provide. Am I wrong? –Wants To Talk In Reno

Dear Wants To Talk: Idon’t think you are wrong,and I happen to agree withyou.

I, too, usually learnmore from a spoken conver-sation than from an emailor text because I can distin-guish whether the personis joking or being serious.But you and I are becom-ing the minority. Todaymany younger people feelmore comfortable commu-nicating online – at leastinitially.

Dear Abby: My husbandrecently returned to thefamily business to becomethe general manager. Heis in control of hiring newemployees, and he recentlytold me they need to hiremore people.

I have mentioned sev-eral times my interest inworking there as an admin-istrative assistant.

However, my husbandeither changes the subjector gets angry when I askabout it.

It hurts my feelings thatI am the person raising hischildren, but am not goodenough to work in the fami-ly business!

I also know it’s not be-

cause of lack of experience.This makes me questionthe strength and value ofour marriage. – Hurt Feel-ings In Oregon

Dear Hurt Feelings: WhileI can see that you might bedisappointed, what I regardas your problem may be thelack of honest communica-tion between you and yourhusband.

He may have reasons forpreferring you not workin the family business thathave nothing to do with thestrength or value of yourmarriage.

It might be that he isnew in his position as gen-eral manager, that workingin ANY family business canbe stressful, that he’d pre-fer separation between hisworking life and his familylife, or that other familymembers might object.

Let the subject rest fora while, and when you doraise it again, try to do itin a non-confrontationalmanner.

If you do, he may bemore open and less defen-sive with you about whathis reasons are. And if youwould prefer to work out-side the home in additionto raising the children,consider submitting yourresumes to other compa-nies.

Dear Abby: My husbandand I are approaching our25th anniversary.

We don’t have a lot ofmoney to spend on a largeparty (our sons are 14 and17).

Are there inexpensivesolutions? I’d prefer notto have it at our house. –Stumped In Georgia

Dear Stumped: Becauseyou don’t want to entertainat your home, considerholding the celebration at apark, limiting the guest listand making it a potluck.

Thoughtful defensewins onemore time

BRIDGE by Phillip Alder

Percival, one of King Arthur’sKnights of the Round Table,supposedly said, “One hour ofthoughtful solitude may nervethe heart for days of conflict –girding up its armor to meet themost insidious foe.”

Many play far too quickly atthe bridge table. True, takingone hour would be consideredexcessive. But a minute or sois perfectly acceptable. And ifsomeone complains to you, reply:“You have just ruined my trainof thought. I will have to start allover again.”

In this deal, West leads theclub ace against four spades. Howshould he plan the defense?

North’s auction showed fourspades and game-going values. SoSouth, who also had four spades,corrected from three no-trump tofour spades.

Many would cash the clubking at trick two, then lookaround for the next step. But thatwould be too late. West needs torealize that his partner has onlyone heart. (South showed four,dummy has three and West holdsfive.) West must also hope thathis partner has a speedy trumpentry.

At trick two, West shifts to aheart. Declarer wins on the boardand plays a trump, but East winswith his ace and returns a club.West takes the trick with hiscarefully conserved entry, theking, and gives his partner thelethal heart ruff.

Finally, note that if Northhad raised one no-trump to threeno-trump, West probably wouldhave led the heart nine, top ofnothing. Then, when East gotin with his spade ace, he wouldhave had to find a club shift todefeat the contract.

Pause to think – you willdefend and play better.
