Periodical cicadas like this one will be a common sight acrossIllinois in the weeks to come as two large broods of the in-sects will be emerging.

A plague of locusts?Early cicada emergence unusual

By JEFF LAMPEWeekly Post Staff Writer

ELMWOOD – New life hasbeen breathed into an iconic Elm-wood building, whose coming outparty was last weekend.

During an open house last Fri-day and Saturday at Elm Haven

Place, located at the corner of Roseand East Main streets across fromCentral Park, more than 600 visi-tors toured the renovated building,which previously housed a hotel,hospital, nursing home, apartmentsand even a lawyer’s office.

Many who walked through the

108-year-old building raved aboutthe renovation overseen by newowners Mike Gudat of PeoriaHeights and Joe Fontana of Peoria.

SPRINGFIELD – Restaurantsacross the state are set to openfor indoor dining Friday amongother additions to allowable ac-tivities under the state’s RestoreIllinois plan. The state releasednew guidance for reopeningbusinesses Monday.

On Tuesday, the state also re-leased new guidelines forschools, colleges and universitiesto return to in-person learning inthe fall.

But first to Friday’s changes.One of the big one involves eat-ing out. Restaurants must arrangetheir seating facilities so that ta-bles are 6 feet apart, and partieslarger than 10 people will not beallowed, per state guidelines. Standing areas such as bars willbe allowed to operate at no morethan 25 percent of capacity, andstaff is required to wear face cov-erings when serving customers.

As well, gatherings of 50 peo-ple – up from 10 – will be al-lowed in Illinois, including at

weddings and funerals; and fit-ness centers, movie theaters, mu-seums and zoos will be allowedto reopen with capacity limitsand health guidelines in place.Industry-specific guidelines fromthe state can be found at Illi-nois.gov/businessguidelines.

The state continues to seedownward trends in hospitaliza-tions and positivity rate of thosetested for the COVID-19 virus.As of Tuesday afternoon, the De-partment of Public Health re-ported 601 new confirmed cases

of COVID-19 and 38 virus-re-lated deaths over the previous 24hours, bringing the statewide to-tals to 137,825 cases and 6,707deaths. Illinois has seen five con-secutive weeks of declining newcases and fatalities.

While some – including busi-ness groups and legislative Re-publicans – have urged Gov. JBPritzker’s administration to expe-dite entry into the fourth phase ofhis five-phase reopening plandue to the progress being made,he has strictly adhered to the

original timeline – with some re-visions such as allowing outdoordining earlier in the process – heannounced on May 5.

While each of the second, thirdand fourth phases of the planlasted 30 days, there is notimetable for moving from Phase4 to Phase 5, the final phasewhen the state’s economy fullyreopens, including conventions,festivals and large events.

Per the current plan, Phase 5cannot begin without a coron-

Phase 4 of reopening starts Friday: What will it mean?

It doesn’t take a Bibli-cal scholar to rememberthe violent hailstorm thathit the area in 2016 andthe darkness from thesolar eclipse a year later,and to notice the COVID-19 disease that’s struck, ofcourse. But when scien-tists observed the emer-gence years early of

locusts, people may startthinking of Moses’ 10plagues against Egypt’sPharaoh.Two large groups of ci-cadas are starting toemerge throughout Illi-nois – four years earlierthan expected.Periodical cicadas – tech-nically, not locusts – havebeen seen in Fulton and

Peoria Counties, accord-ing to University of Illi-nois Extension, andthey’ll continue to emergefor the next few weeks.

“A periodical cicadaemergence can be an ex-citing event to witness,”says Sarah Hughson, Illi-nois Pesticide Safety Edu-cation Program. “Thisyear, two large broods areemerging four years earlyand will encompass muchof the state, so many peo-ple may be able to watchthis special event in theirown yards.”

Brood XIII includesthree species of 17-yearcicadas emerging in cen-tral and northern Illinois.Elsewhere, Brood XIX,which includes fourspecies of 13-year ci-cadas, are emerging insouthern Illinois and partsof south-central Illinois,Hughson said.

Cicada nymphs live un-derground for most oftheir lives, drawing fluidsfrom tree roots, unnoticeduntil they rise, when theyleave the soil, climb a fewfeet up a tree or shrub,and molt to their adultstage, leaving their shedskin behind.

Adult cicadas usuallyremain near their moltingsite to allow their bodies

time to harden, be-fore moving fartherup the tree, Hugh-son said. As adults,periodical cicadasfeed very little, de-voting their time toreproduction.

Adult males willcall to females witha shrill buzzingsong, increasinglynoticeable thismonth.

“In areas withlow populations ofcicadas, the callscan be a nice sum-mer chorus, but inareas with heavypopulations, somemay find the callingquite loud,” Hugh-son said.

After mating, fe-male cicadas use theiregg-laying structure to cutsmall openings into twigsand branches and leavetheir eggs. They may re-peat this several times ona given twig, resulting inscars several inches long.Leaves growing beyondthe scarring site often dieand twigs may break eas-ily.

Female cicadas preferto deposit eggs in twigsand branches from ¼-inchto and 1.5 inches in diam-eter, but they may also de-posit eggs in the trunks ofsmall transplanted fruit orornamental trees, so it’simportant to identify andprotect trees that may beat risk for injury, Hughsonsaid.

Most areas don’t seeheavy populations of peri-odical cicadas and don’tneed significant protec-tion.

Periodical cicadas re-

quire 13 to 17 years con-tinuously feeding on thesame tree to complete asingle generation,” Hugh-son explained, “so areaswhere trees were removedor areas that were previ-ously farmland or prairiemay see very few if anyperiodical cicadas.”

However, in areas withheavy periodical cicadapopulations or areas withyoung or cherished fruitand ornamental trees, ac-tion can be taken to pre-vent damage, she said.

“The best way to pro-tect small trees from dam-age in areas with heavycicada populations is tosurround the trunks withscreening to prevent egg-laying.”

Also, waiting to plantsmall trees or choosinglarger trees at least 2.5inches in diameter canhelp avoid damage fromegg-laying. To avoid egg-

laying in small fruittrees, consider cover-ing trees in mesh nolarger than 1/4 inchwhile cicadas are ac-tive.

Applications ofinsecticides may killmany emerging adultcicadas, but researchhas found that theapplications did notreduce the amount ofegg-laying or injuryto the plants, Hughson says. “Re-member your localwildlife, includingbirds, mammals andreptiles, will befeasting on cicadasthroughout the emer-gence,” she says.

“Choosing cul-tural controls and

avoiding chemical treat-ments can preventwildlife from consumingpesticides along with theirmeal.”

According to cicadama-nia.com, 17-year periodi-cal cicadas in Brood XIIIwill show in Fulton andPeoria, plus Henry,Mason, McLean, Stark,Tazewell and Woodford inthis area, and 21 othercounties in Northern andeast-central Illinois.

Brood XIX’s 13-yearperiodical cicadas willemerge in southern andcentral Illinois countiesincluding Adams, Brown,Champaign, Hancock,Pike and 25 other coun-ties.

Meanwhile, if the Illi-nois River turns blood-red, readers may want tolook for lamb’s blood fortheir doors.BILL KNIGHT can bereached at [email protected]

Rambling through central Illinois,ready for the humid, corn-growingdays to come.

uuuOld buildings often become a con-

cern in small communities. Whilethey offer historic value and plentyof memories, they are also expensiveto maintain – one reason they oftengo the way of thewrecking ball. Soit was very en-couraging to tourElm Haven Placein Elmwood lastweek. DevelopersMike Gudat andJoe Fontana de-serve kudos fordoing a great jobrevitalizing the108-year-old brick building, whosefuture at one point was uncertain. ...After walking through Elm Haven, Iencountered grocery store ownerChristina Bean, who made a keen ob-servation. Talking about the lateJulie Hauter, former owner of ElmHaven, she said, “Julie would havebeen thrilled with what they’vedone!” I agree. ... While handing outkudos for the Elm Haven renovation,it’s worth noting that we are blessedin Elmwood to have had similarforesight paid to other buildings,among them the old school (now anapartment building), the Palace The-atre and the old gym (now a commu-nity center). Without a lot of loveand hard work by many people tonurse those facilities along, the com-munity would not be what it is today.... Actually, the same is true in all ourtowns. My mind wanders to renova-tions at Sherman’s Pharmacy inBrimfield, to Brimfield’s Guyer Log

Cabin, to the remodeled Farmingtondowntown, to the Yates City gazebo,to the move of Williamsfield’s 126-year-old St. James Catholic Churchand to the 120-year old Akron Town-house School at Princeville’s Her-itage Museum. Those are just a fewhistoric landmarks that have beenkept alive by caring communitymembers. Please bring others to myattention. I sense a series of storiesahead.

uuuLike many with extra time of late,

my kids and I have ventured into theworld of day trading stocks. Thanksto nearly all online brokers offeringfree trading services, financial obsta-cles to buying and selling stocks aregreatly reduced – at least if you havemoney. And thanks to a stock marketthat has fared better than expected –given the actual state of our COVID-crazed economy – it’s been a goodtime to dabble in the market. Plus,since there’s less and less to talkabout around the dinner table, long-winded discussions on the merits ofNCLH vs. XOM vs CWBHF helpfill the void. ... For instance, a goodstock pick would have been to investin somebody who makes kayaks(JOUT perhaps, up $32 since themarket tanked in March). Likely be-cause of the COVID free time somany are enjoying, kayaks are oneof the hottest commodities in centralIllinois. For years, I’ve walked pastrows of the plastic boats in sportinggoods stores and farm stores. Therewere kayaks and canoes all over. Butonce we have an interest in buyingone, boom, they’re all sold out. Be-yond sold out, actually. We hap-pened to be at Farm and Fleet inMorton recently and discovered a

crate of unpacked kayaks in the out-door yard. Excited, we hustled insideto buy one – only to learn they werealready sold to people on a waitinglist. Looks like the old aluminumcanoe will have to be good enough.

uuu

Good news: Creeks and rivers arelow and running fairly clear andsmallmouth bass are biting! Onefine, inexpensive way to spend a hotsummer day outdoors is to put onyour worse shoes, grab a fishingpole, put a black plastic twister tailon a jig and go wade some runningwater (I’d say fish out of your kayak,but good luck with that). Actually,even better than a piece of plastic isa piece of nightcrawler. Just watchout for the stinging nettles on theway to the water and bring an extrapair of shoes. You’ll likely wind uptrashing the pair you use for wading.... More Good News: Phase 4 is fi-nally here! We can go out to eatagain and see movies at The PalaceTheatre in Elmwood starting Friday!“Trolls World Tour” looks like oneof the dumbest movies ever, but I’mstrangely eager to go see it. ... Part-ing shot: Never fails to amaze howoften people read this paper and thentell me I am: 1. a left-wing liberal, 2.a right-wing Trump lover. Here’s asecret: the last Illinois governor I re-spected was Jim Edgar. That was notbecause he was a Republican, butbecause he was a Republican whomanaged to get things done in a De-mocrat-dominated state withoutbankrupting us in the process. Findthat combination again and I’ll votefor that candidate every time. Contact Jeff Lampe at (309) 231-6040 or

During this time of year, you mightlook out your window to see beesand butterflies buzzing aroundnearby flowers, moving from oneplant to the next, pollinating alongthe way. Many of the fruits and veg-etables we enjoy in the summer are aresult of the important work these in-sects do.

What better time to learn moreabout the role pollinators play inagriculture thanduring NationalPollinator Week?

Here in Illinois,the growing sea-son is in fullswing. As youdrive by fields ofemerging cornand soybeans,take a moment tolook for insectsflying through fields, helping ourfarmers produce a strong food supplythrough pollination.

Pollination occurs when pollenfrom the male part of a plant is trans-ferred to the female part of the sameor a different plant. This movementcan take place when pollen attachesto an animal or is carried by wind orwater to its destination. Successfulpollination results in the fruits, veg-etables and nuts that we grow in our

gardens or buy at the grocery store. According to the U.S. Fish and

Wildlife Service (USFWS), pollina-tors like bees, butterflies, bats andbirds are responsible for pollinatingmore than 75 percent of the nation’sflowering plants and crops. In 2010,pollination by honeybees directly orindirectly contributed to more than$19 billion of crops; pollination byother insects contributed to nearly$10 billion of crops.

With such a high reliance on thesecreatures for food production, it is nosurprise farmers are committed todoing their part to protect pollinators.

Last month, the Illinois Farm Bu-reau submitted data on behalf of ourstate’s agriculture sector to the Illi-nois Monarch Project for theUSFWS Monarch ConservationDatabase. The report detailed effortsmade by farmers and others in theIllinois ag sector to protect pollina-tors like monarch butterflies through-out the state.

The data shows that from 2014 to2019, more than 850,000 acres inIllinois were registered in the Con-servation Reserve Program and morethan 100,000 acres were enrolled inthe Pollinator Habitat Program (CP-42). An additional 741 acres werealso established as pollinator habitatoutside of these federal initiatives.

It is thanks to the voluntary effortsof farmers and foresters, in additionto agriculture groups and state agen-cies, that pollinators remain pro-tected with the habitat they need tosupport our food system.

Now that you know more aboutthe role pollinators and farmers havein producing the fresh produce youwill likely enjoy this summer, youmight be asking yourself how youcan get involved in protecting polli-nators.

The answer? Plant a pollinator gar-den. If you want to see moremonarch butterflies in your area, addmilkweed, a vital resource for thisspecies, to your landscape. Create apollinator-friendly environment byplanting blooming annuals likesalvia, zinnias and lavender. Try tolimit the number of times you mowyour lawn during the summer toallow wildflowers time to grow.

Pollinators are an integral part ofagriculture and it will take all of usworking together to ensure they re-main in our fields and gardens foryears to come. However you chooseto make a difference in supportingbees, butterflies and other pollinators– start today. Richard Guebert Jr., of Ellis Grove, is the

15th president of the Illinois Farm Bureauand serves as full-time executive officer.

Illinois PTA calls forlearning recovery planTo the Editor:

As the current school year ends indistricts across our state, school staff,from teachers and principals to busdrivers and school nurses, haveshown to be true heroes for our stu-dents and families in the midst of theCOVID-19 pandemic.

These truly essential employeeshave delivered our communitiesmeals, provided health alerts and in-formation, supported our childrenwith a quick transition to remotelearning, and served as vital lifelinesfor countless students and families.We are extremely grateful and ap-

plaud their strength and commitment.Now, as we begin to prepare for a

return to school, it is clear our stu-dents and teachers will need supportas schools re-engage. This crisis hastaken an emotional and academic tollon every student in the state. Whetheryoung people have lost a loved one,

struggled through eco-nomic loss and hard-ship, worried abouthow to keep up withcollege tuition, or sim-ply wrestled with iso-lation and anxiety, noyoung person in thestate has been un-

scathed by the upheaval and disloca-tion of this pandemic.

As parents, we have seen firsthandthat remote learning is not a substi-tute for in-person instruction andschooling. We see that many of ourchildren are not covering all their les-sons and material, are less engagedand have far less opportunity for peerto peer growth and development. Weknow that our schools had limitedtime and resources to plan for remotelearning, and that we as parents hadlittle time to prepare for what wouldbe needed at home too. But we can-not let our children suffer – eithernext year or in the long term.

Just as Gov. JB Pritzker identifiedthe need for a statewide and regionalapproach for opening up the state, weneed a statewide approach for re-opening schools that recognizes localconditions but ensures equity, rigor,

and recovery for all of our childrenand schools. While every student hasbeen affected, we know that the im-pact of this crisis has been felt un-evenly across race, income,citizenship status and need. It is ourjob to ensure our educational recov-ery focuses resources on communi-ties and student who need them most.

We need state leaders to ensure thatIllinois has a comprehensive learningrecovery plan. This plan should in-clude elements that ensure our schoolcommunities have supports for stu-dents and educators; educator plan-ning time, support, and training tonavigate unprecedented emotionaland academic impact; infrastructure,training, and other supports to closethe digital divide; targeted supportsfor students most impacted byCOVID-19; and additional schooltime to address learning and social-emotional needs.

Every student’s future is at stakeright now. History and research showthat if we do not support studentsemotionally and if we do not helpthem make up missed academics,their educational and employmentoutcomes will be forever changed.These losses will follow them intoadulthood. Leaders from across ourstate must work to craft and imple-ment a plan that will ensure our stu-dents’ futures are not shortchanged.Working together, we can makeevery child’s full potential their real-ity.– Illinois Parent Teacher Association

PRINCEVILLE – TheVillage Board last week(June 16) discussed estab-lishing a new deposit feefor new water customers,and by consensus seemedto favor $100.

Trustees asked Villagelawyers to draft an ordi-nance to be considered atthe board’s next meeting,scheduled for Monday,July 6.

Previously, Princevillehad no required deposit,Village President JeffTroutman said.

A follow-up discussionrelated to the ongoingCOVID-19 pandemic rec-ognized that the state’s“Restore Illinois” is pro-ceeding and was expectedto relax some restrictionswhen it enters Phase 4 onFriday (June 26), so theBoard is not planning totake other action, Trout-man said.

“We’re going to followthe schedule the state rec-ommends,” he said.

The Board did discussthe procedure for setting

curfews and declaringemergencies, and specifi-cally granting the VillagePresident that authority,and again requested itslawyers to produce sam-ple language for Trusteesto consider July 6.

In other action:• The Board approved a

six-month extension withAdam Merrick Realty tocontinue to list Aten

Acres Phase-6 lots, Trout-man said. He noted that,“They’re changing theirmarketing strategy”; and

• Trustees voted to do-nate $500 to thePrinceville-to-Peoria St.Jude Run, the sameamount as for last year’ssponsorship.BILL KNIGHT can be

EDWARDS – With little fanfare, theState of Illinois in January released an up-graded collection of online courses featur-ing hundreds of classes from agri-scienceto anthropology offered by multipleproviders. Available to any school in thestate, they’re offered by Illinois VirtualSchool in rural Edwards and now fivenew private providers.

Within months of the material’s debut,the coronavirus pandemic shut downschools and pushed students into remotelearning. The state’s redesign was poisedto fill a desperate new need – educationdelivered via the internet. But the coursesunder the state umbrella have remainedunused in some areas, even as school dis-tricts rushed toward remote learning.

While states like Virginia expanded

their virtual programs and made them freeto schools, Illinois can’t even say howmany students have taken advantage of itsonline courses this spring. The state didn’teven mention its new catalog in its remotelearning guidance.

One of the program’s new online courseproviders, the experienced Arizona StateUniversity, attracted no – zero – Illinoisstudents. And some district leaders saythey know little to nothing about thenewly expanded catalog of courses.

It’s also not clear why the state’s ex-panded menu of courses hasn’t been asavior to desperate districts, but observerssay an inflexible enrollment date, a spe-cific mission to only supplement learningand a lack of broad awareness about thenew providers may have hampered enroll-ment.

Illinois debuted a virtual learning systembefore pandemic. Why is no one using it?

By RON DIETERFor The Weekly Post

The other day, I was mowing asmall field of wildflowers andweeds and I was reminded of a tripto England several years ago.

While touring to see historic gar-dens and estates, our group wouldstop in nearby villages for lunchand shopping. Some of us wouldventure off to tour the villagechurch.

The country churches were oftenancient structure, hundreds of yearsold with thick stone walls, weather-worn wooden doors, oak timberrafters and joists and slate roofs.

The churchyards most often werecemeteries with a mix of ancientand modern stone markers. Some-times as we approached the en-trance of a church, we would haveto go down a couple steps to enter.Why would a church be built withits main floor below ground level?

The answer lies in the churchyarditself. Over the years as graves weredug, the deceased interred, and thedisplaced soil leveled out, thegrounds around the church inchedupward. Over the span of a fewhundred years the churchyardslowly swallows the church.

Our tour took us into London tovisit a church, formerly SaintMary’s-at-Lambeth. There has beena church on that site since 1062, ap-proaching a thousand years. Youcan climb the bell tower which hasstood there since the church was re-built in the 1300s.

Historians and archaeologists es-timate the churchyard contains over26,000 burials. It’s a wonder youcan still see the tower. Residents ofthe cemetery include WilliamBligh, captain of the HMS Bounty,and the John Tradescants, both theElder and the Younger. The fatherand son were noted gardeners, ex-plorers and plant collectors.

In the 1970s, the church wasclosed and scheduled for demoli-tion, but was saved by Rosemaryand John Nicholson, devotees ofthe Tradescants. They established atrust to create England’s Museum

of Garden His-tory, which nowoccupies the for-mer church andchurchyard.

The museumcontains a collec-tion of garden ar-tifacts, includingthe desk ofGertrude Jeckyll,prolific gardendesigner andwriter. In thechurchyard, theelaboratelycarved tombstoneof the Trades-cants stands as ithas since 1662.

It was theTradescant namethat sparked mymemory while Iwas mowing. Nu-merous spider-worts weregrowing amongstthe grasses and weeds.

Their botanical name is Trades-cantia, bestowed on the genus byCarl Linnaeus to honor JohnTradescant the Younger, whobrought the plant from Virginia toEngland.

The common name spiderwortcomes about because when a stemis broken the mucous-like fluidforms silky threads or strands like aspider’s web. Wort is Old Englishfor plant or root. It’s not a verypretty name, but it’s way better thanthe other – cowslobber.

Spiderworts are easy to spot inroadsides and pastures. From grass-like foliage they send up a strongslender stems two or three feet tall,topped with a generous cluster offlowerbuds. The cluster is about thesize of a golf ball.

Each bud opens to reveal a three-petaled violet-blue flower with sixgolden anthers in the center.

The broad grass-like leaves tendto bend in the middle, giving theplant an angular, somewhat awk-ward appearance.

The flowers open on warm sunnymornings and fade away by after-noon. Blossoms lasts for only a day,but the cluster provides many daysof bloom.

They perform best in bright shadeactually, where there is enough lightto open the flowers and no harshsun to melt them away.

I think because of spiderwort’ssomewhat rangy appearance, mostgardeners opt for more glamorousplants for their borders.

But I must say, a spiderwort thathas developed into a large clump oftall stems topped with those lovelyblue flowers earns its keep. It looksfine situated at the back of a peren-nial border and fronted with coralbells or hosta.

There are several cultivars of-fered by the trade. ‘Charlotte’sWeb’ sports golden-yellow foliagewhich sets off the light violet-blueflowers nicely.

Another one is ‘Red Cloud’ withrose-purple blossoms. I’ve seen nei-ther one in the flesh, but that’sokay.

The wild one suits me fine.

ELM HAVEN: 15 of 22 units ready to be rentedbringing Elm Haven back to its glorydays,” said Gudat, who like Fontanais a Farmington native. “We’ve had atremendous amount of positive feed-back.”

Gudat said 15 of an eventual 22rental units are completed in thebuilding and are available for peopleto start moving in on Aug. 1.

Gudat and Fontant purchased thebuilding in February of 2019 but didnot start renovations until June of lastyear. Since then, they have basicallygutted the inside while maintainingthe familiar brick exterior.

“We revamped the HVAC, tookout the old boiler, put in a new eleva-tor, put in – generally speaking – allnew plumbing, all new electrical andupdated every wall, floor and ceil-ing,” Gudat said. “The building hasgone from 1919 to 2020 technology.”

Each apartment has a living space,kitchenette, bathroom and bedroom.Fixtures, floor coverings and appli-ances are all new. The facility in-cludes laundry rooms and commonareas throughout and a landscapedcourtyard.

“We worked with interior design-ers to make sure fixtures and featurescommunicate a home environment,”Gudat said. “It’s meant to be a home,not an apartment.”

Gudat, 52, said he actually touredElm Haven with the former owner,the late Julie Hauter, “probably fivetimes about three or four years beforewe purchased it.”

At that time, though, he was stillworking full-time at Cisco. Sincethen, Gudat has “retired” from work-ing for other companies and hasmore time to focus on his March 2Ventures, which manages 750 tradi-

tional apartmentsand is involved withseveral real estateprojects.

Another currentproject Gudat is partof is revitalizing theold Keller StationIDOT building inPeoria into commer-cial and retail space.

But he said theElm Haven renova-tion has been uniqueand particularly sat-isfying.

“Joe and I and ourfamilies are proud tohave had this chanceto bring Elm Haven back to itsglory,” Gudat said. “It’s been funkind of taking that legacy property inElmwood and really revitalizing it.”

The next step is filling the units,which Gudat said will rent for $1,500to $1,800 per month. That includesall utilities, cable TV, WiFi andmonthly cleaning.

As part of an open house specialfrom Aug. 1 to Oct. 1, those signingleases do not have to pay a deposit,

pay just $1,000 for the first month’srent, get $50 gift cards from Bean’sFamily Market and the Uptown Cafeand are eligible for free help movingtheir belongings to Elm Haven.

“We’re trying to make it very easyfor folks to make the transition,”Gudat said.

As part of that, Elm Haven Place iscollaborating with Bean’s FamilyMarket and the Uptown Cafe for de-liveries of meals and groceries.

This week in sports historySanto drove in five runs in his 1960 M.L. debut


Major League Baseballowners and players seemlocked in a duel to the death,but sports fans always havethe past.

St. Louis Cardinals• June 25, 1999: Rookie

pitcher Jose Jimenez (enter-ing the game with a 6+ERA) faced just 28 battersand no-hit the Diamond-backs, 1-0. The Cardinalsright-hander, who outdueledfuture Hall of Famer RandyJohnson for the win, was thefirst rookie to throw a no-hitter since 1973 and thefirst Cardinal pitcher to ac-complish the feat at homesince 1983 when BobForsch kept the Expos hit-less at Busch Stadium.

• June 29, 1935: Cardinalleft fielder Joe “Ducky”Medwick hit for the cycle,but Cincinnati escaped a9th-inning rally to beat the“Gashouse Gang” and DaffyDean, 8-6. Medwick, electedinto the Hall of Fame in1968, scored three runs inthe Redbirds’ loss.

• July 1, 1968: Bob Gib-son’s scoreless-inning streakended at 47 after a question-

able call when the officialscorer ruled a wild pitch in-stead of a passed ball, allow-ing Dodger Len Gabrielsonto score in the first inning ofthe Cardinals’ 5-1 victoryover the Dodgers at ChavezRavine. Without the contro-versial decision, the Redbirdright-hander, who blankedSan Francisco in his nextstart, would have beenwithin three innings ofbreaking the mark of 58scoreless frames establishedin June by Don Drysdale.

Chicago Cubs• June 26, 1960: Led by

Ron Santo, making hismajor league debut, theCubs swept a doubleheaderfrom first-place Pittsburgh,7-5 and 7-6. The rookie thirdbaseman, elected into theHall of Fame posthumouslyby the Veterans Committeein 2012, went 3-for-7 anddrove in 5 runs.

• June 28 2010: The Cubsplaced pitcher Carlos Zam-brano on the restricted listafter the right-hander wassuspended for three gamesfor a tirade where teammatesseparated him from Chicagofirst baseman Derrek Lee inthe visitors’ dugout after sur-

rendering four runs to theWhite Sox in the 1st inningat U.S. Cellular Field.

• June 29, 1969: BillyWilliams played in his 896thconsecutive game, surpass-ing Stan Musial’s mark es-tablished in 1957, as theCubs swept a doubleheaderfrom the Cardinals 3-1 and12-1, with the Chicago out-fielder going 4-for-5 with asingle, double and twotriples in the nightcap. Theteam honors him with a cer-emony between games ofthe twin bill on “BillyWilliams Day” before41,060 at Wrigley Field.

Chicago White Sox• June 30, 1988: On the

last day of the Illinois Gen-eral Assembly’s session,Gov. James Thompson lob-bied lawmakers to approve abill for a new Chicago ball-park to keep the White Soxfrom moving to Florida.While Thompson was sixvotes shy at five minutes tomidnight, the bill’s deadline,the final time was “delayed”by three minutes, letting lob-byists get the necessaryvotes to OK a $150 millionballpark.

• July 1, 1962: In the sec-

ond game of a doubleheadersweep of the Indians, theWhite Sox became the firstteam in major league historyto record three run-scoringsacrifice flies in one inning.Three fly balls hit by JuanPizarro, Nellie Fox and AlSmith to Gene Green (twoof which were dropped bythe Cleveland right fielder)set up the occurrence.

Elsewhere in Sports• June 25, 1969: The

longest tennis match inWimbledon history was wonby Pancho Gonzales, whobeat Charles Pasarell in a112-game marathon lasting5 hours and 12 minutes.

• June 27, 1978: HenryRono of Kenya set therecord for the 3,000-meterrace, finishing at 7:32.1.

• July 1, 1904: TheGames of the III Olympiadstarted on this date in St.Louis, continuing to Nov.23.

The change to Phase 4 of the Restore Illinoisplan could also signal a change for high school ath-letics. The Illinois High School Association hascreated a draft plan of its Return to Play plan thatwould allow for gatherings of up to 50 individualsindoors or outdoors during summer contact days.

The plan is still in draft form, however, andawaits final approval from the Illinois Departmentof Public Health, which could arrive by Friday.

The IHSA plan urges coaches to use a “stagedapproach” to build back up to full summer contactactivity and al-lows localschools to de-termine thepermitted ac-tivities at theirschools.

Multiple groups of 50 or fewer participants couldalso show up at the same facility under the plan,given certain restrictions.

If schools allow spectators, they would becapped at 20 percent of capacity.

Cleanliness, sanitizing and testing of athletesprior to activities are all integral parts of the IHSAplan.

Worth noting is that the IHSA plan also includesthe following: “No spitting or blowing of the nosewithout the use of a tissue is allowed.”

Wearing of masks is an allowed option forcoaches and participants.
