NORTH AURORA – The goodswere laid out all over the front yard,driveway and garage, everythingfrom clothes to dishes, Christmasdecorations to books, furniture toHalloween costumes for dogs.

At the tail-end of its three-day runon Saturday, the Great Annual RoverRescue Garage Sale was still offeringbargains galore and all to help the or-ganization’s cause.

Teri Grandt of North Aurora isthe foster home coordinator for Rov-er Rescue and hosted the sale.

“This is our biggest fundraiser ofthe year,” Grandt said. “We generallymake about $5,000 ... for vet bills. Wedon’t have anybody in our organiza-tion that’s paid; it’s all volunteer. Soall of our money – every single dimewe make – all goes toward vet bills.”

Rover Rescue has 50 foster homes

for 60 to 80 dogs and puppies at atime, Grandt said.

“And actually, we have a rabbit

now, too, David,” Grandt said.Linda Specht of North Aurora was

one of the shoppers looking throughclothes at the sale.

“I’m here to help support the Rov-er Rescue,” Specht said. “It’s a verygood cause. I love animals, and it’sgreat to see people who want to helpthem, too.”

The last day of the sale is whenshoppers get to offer their own pricefor the items.

Cathy Whiteside of Elburn wasbuying a shirt and a candle holder sofar and was pondering how much shewould donate for the items.

“Since I put my own price on it,I don’t want to put such a low pricebecause I want to give as much as Ican,” Whiteside said. “I like antiquestuff, and I look for a lot of stuff thatlooks antique or vintage. I like thisgarage sale though – not knowing itwas for the dogs – but I think that’sreally cool.”

Antique lessonsfrom the experts

By ASHLEY [email protected]

CAMPTON HILLS – Evenafter 15 years of collectingtools, Dennie Cole considershimself a beginner.

That ’s why the Brid -geview resident attendsGarfield Farm Museum’sAntique Tool Show, whichattracts who he calls the pro-fessors or the professionaltool collectors.

“I learn stuff from them,”Cole said Sunday, standingbehind tables displaying hiscollection.

For 20 years, the showhas aimed to bring togetherthe enthusiasm and knowl-edge of the Early AmericanIndustries Association andthe Mid-West Tool CollectorsAssociation to educate thepublic in the tools, methodsand technologies used as theIndustrial Revolution and In-dustrial Age developed.

It is the only show in theMidwest that both associa-tions participate in and thatis also open to the public,according to Garfield FarmMuseum.

As the sun made sometools hot to touch, attendeesbrowsed such items as hatch-ets, chisels, gunny sacks,saws, locks, mallets, shovels,knives, toolboxes and even aharpoon circa 1850 that wasmade from the wreckage of

an Arctic ship.Cole said collecting an-

tique tools appeals to himjust as collecting Rembrandtpaintings appeals to others.

“We use them once in awhile, too,” he said.

Buzz Whowell of DownersGrove is one collector tryingto downsize his collection. Asign at his table – which healso used last year – read,“My kids say, ‘Don’t you daredie till you get rid of all thosetools.’ ”

He appeared to have somesuccess at Garfield Farm.By mid-morning, he pulled awad of cash from his pocket.

“All today,” he said butnoted he has many moretools at home.

Whowell, who turned 81Sunday, said his collectionbegan years ago when he ac-quired tools from his 93-year-old neighbor after her death.The tools had belonged to herfather, who was born in 1870and likely began his tool col-lection in the 1880s, Whowellsaid.

Whowell has traced thehistory of his tools. He not

only knows when they weremade but how they wereused.

“When I find a tool, I tryto learn as much about it as Ican,” he said.

While Whowell could tellvisitors how tools were used,

Christopher Yonker of PalosHeights was showing visitorstools in action as he worked

to build a four-legged stool.Yonker, a member of the

Mid-West Tool CollectorsAssociation, said it is fun toshow the craftsmanship in-volved in making objects.Plus, he said, it gives him achance to demonstrate thetools he makes and sells withhis wife, Mary.

T h e i r b u s i n e s s , C M EHandworks Inc., specializesin producing reproductionsof antique and classic handtools with modern features oftheir own design.

Two boys watched as Yon-ker worked on the stool. Af-

ter wedging a piece of wood

into another, he said it will

never come out again once

the legs are added.

GENEVA – Cougars left field-er Shawon Dunston, Jr. fell preyto the hidden ball trick duringSunday’s game against QuadCities, an embarrassing mo-ment that might not be soon for-gotten in the team’s clubhouse.

At the plate, however, Cou-gars hitters weren’t so easilyfooled.

The Cougars notched 17 hits– all nine men in the order hadat least one – as they swept theRivers Bandits with a 9-5 win atFifth Third Bank Ballpark.

Dunston drew a walk withtwo outs in the bottom of thefourth, and moments later, hewas tagged out by first base-man AJ Reed, to the confusionof many among the 7,149 spec-tators.

“I’ve tried to do that some-times when I’ve played first,fake-throw back to the pitcher,”Cougars catcher Cael Brock-meyer said. “There’s only likea two- or three- second gap there

when you can tag him and I

think he got him right as his

hand was coming off. … It was

definitely kind of an interesting

play.

“Fortunately it didn’t cost

us too much [today], but it will

be fun to make fun of him for a

while.”

The Cougars (25-17 second

half, 70-42 overall) overcame

three home runs by Quad Cit-

ies (21-21, 56-55), accounting for

four of the Rivers Bandits’ five

runs. Cougars starting pitcher

Daury Torrez (10-5) allowed two

of them but won his 10th game

of the season, becoming the

first Cougars pitcher since Dan

Straily in 2010 to win 10 games

in a season.

Cougars manager Mark

Johnson said “the kid just loves

to throw.”

“It’s a credit to his durabil-

ity and the way he competes,”

Johnson said. “Sometimes he

does get hit around and some-

times his stuff does get a little

flat, but 10 wins, first full season,

that’s a heck of a milestone, andhe’s still strong.”

Torrez struck out six in sixinnings, allowing five hits andwalking one.

Brockmeyer supplied thelone long ball for the Cougars,swatting a solo shot to left fieldin the bottom of the sixth thatgave Kane County a 6-3 lead.

Brockmeyer gave new Cou-gars catcher Victor Caratini abreak behind the plate but Car-atini remained in the lineup asdesignated hitter and notched apair of singles with an RBI.

Brockmeyer, Daniel Lock-hart and Chesny Young hadthree hits apiece for the Cou-gars.

All that offensive productionensured Quad Cities’ hiddenball trick would be cold comfortat the end of a three-game sweepfor the Cougars.

Johnson wasn’t impressedwith the River Bandits’ ploy.

“I don’t really buy into allthat trickery [stuff],” Johnsonsaid. “That’s kind of like LittleLeague.”

Back on track

TheCougars returned toGeneva fortheweekend series reeling froma sea-son-high six-game losing streak andwith their offense in amajor slump. Butthe Cougars shook off their strugglesin emphatic fashion, sweepingQuadCities for their seventh home seriessweep of the season.The Cougars are 44-15 at home

this season.

“There’s no rhyme or reason,”Cougars manager Mark Johnsonsaid. “I don’t know what it is, I reallydon’t. Sometimes it happens. It’salways good to come home.”

He’s got range

The Cougars turned a flashydouble play to end the top of theeighth as shortstop Daniel Lockhartranged deep into the hole beforefiring to second baseman Chesny

Young, who threw to first in timeto nip burly Quad Cities left fielderChase McDonald.Lockhart has played more second

base than shortstop but looked likea natural on that one.“What a play,” Johnson said. “That

was an unbelievable play.“That also shows his maturity.

The last year or two, he probablywould have rushed that throw andprobably would have thrown it intoright field, but he got to the ball, heknew it was a slower runner and hehad to make a good throw to sec-ond, first, instead of thinking aboutturning a double play and throwingthe ball away.”

COUGARS 8, QUAD CITIES 2

By STEPHEN [email protected]

GENEVA – After a week fullof transactions shuffled theroster, the Kane County Cou-gars saw dividends from thenewcomers Saturday night.

Players who haven’t beenaround long enough to getnameplates in the lockerroom shined for the Cougarsin an 8-2 victory over QuadCities.

In their respective debutsfor the Cougars (24-17 secondhalf, 69-41 overall), pitcherJonathan Martinez and catch-er Victor Caratini both werekey contributors.

In his first appearance forKane County, Caratini took a1-1 offering back up throughthe middle for a single, scoringJeimer Candelario. Caratini’sRBI capped a three-run firstinning for the Cougars.

Caratini drove in addition-al runs in his ensuing two at-bats with another single inthe third inning and an RBIgroundout in the bottom of the

fifth. Caratini finished 2 for 4with three RBIs on the night.

D e f e n s i v e l y , C a r a t i n iworked with his fellow new-comer Martinez, and the bat-tery never ran into trouble.

Martinez was efficient,throwing 44 pitches in five in-nings before being pulled infavor of Michael Wagner.

Martinez earned his eighthvictory of the season in hisKane County debut. The19-year-old was on a shortleash in his first outing, ex-pected to pitch four innings or60 pitches.

“We sat down before thegame and talked about hisstyle, and what sequences helikes to use,” Caratini saidthrough pitching coach DavidRosario.

Martinez was acquired asthe player to be named laterin the Cubs’ trade to the LosAngeles Dodgers for DarwinBarney while Caratini camefrom Atlanta on Thursday forEmilio Bonifacio and JamesRussell.

“What an outing from Mar-

tinez. I don’t think he brokea sweat out there,” Cougarsmanager Mark Johnson add-ed. “[The Cubs’ front office]definitely did their homeworkon these guys.”

Another Cougars new-comer, Jasvir Rakkar, wasbrought in during the eighthinning and walked his firstbatter before striking out fourin the final 12/3 innings to closeout the game.

Rakkar’s parents drovedown from Canada and werein attendance to see him as aprofessional for the first time.

“You could tell he was alittle nervous,” Johnson said.“But that shows his mentalityand composure as he got it to-gether and made the pitches heneeded to.”

The Cougars roughed upRiver Bandits starting pitcherKevin Comer for three earnedruns in three innings but 81pitches forced Quad Cities (21-20, 56-54) to go to the bullpen inthe fourth inning.

Comer struggled againstKane County in his last start

against the Cougars, as he sur-rendered five runs in four in-nings July 10.

The Cougars plated runsin five of the first six inningsand improved their MidwestLeague-leading home recordto 43-15.

More roster moves: The Cou-gars announced two more ros-ter moves to add to the pile of

transactions in the past week.Pitcher Zak Hermans will

be sent to Short-A Boise, whileTyler Bremer will be rejoiningthe team from Daytona.

Bremer was 5-1 with a 2.57ERA in 26 appearances for theCougars this season beforeeight appearances in Dayto-na, culminating in a 0-1 recordwith a 4.70 ERA.

Martinez, Caratinimake strong first impressions

Fears paralyze woman

who eventually wants kidsDear Abby: I am a

happily married, 26-year-old female with just oneproblem: I’m afraid tohave children.

I have always wantedchildren, and it’s some-thing my husband and Ioften discuss. Anytimewe are asked when weplan to start our family,we always say four to fiveyears, but we have beensaying this same thingfor four years. I alwaysthought I’d be ready bynow.

My husband has beenvery sick for the past fewyears and had to taketime off work.

We were able to scrapeby on my salary, but itwas tough.

He returned to workrecently and is fine. Butnow all I can think aboutis how much childrencost, and I’m afraid we’llnever have enough moneyto have a baby.

I also worry aboutwhat if our child wouldbe killed in an accident,molested or kidnapped!

I ask myself why any-one would want to bringchildren into such a scaryworld, yet I still wantthem.

Please help me. I amvery upset and don’tknow what to do. – Uncer-tain In Tulsa

Dear Uncertain: I under-stand your concerns andthey are valid. Havingchildren is an act of faithas well as an investmentin the future.

If you think about it,life itself is a gamble. Ma-ture individuals do every-thing they can to keep theodds in their favor. Theywork hard, live healthylives, buy insurance,start an education fundfor their children, etc.

There are no guaran-tees – but people keephaving children anyway.

Because you feel stuckin making this decision,it would be helpful to dis-cuss your concerns witha licensed mental healthprofessional who can help

you put your fears to rest.Dear Abby: I am a

30-year-old mother of a5-year-old girl. I havebeen dating “Mack” fortwo years. Everythingwas great at first, butwhen I moved in withhim things changed.

I don’t have a car rightnow. I work less thana mile away, so I walkmostly and don’t mind.

The problem is, whenMack gets off work, hepicks up his son andgoes straight home. Hedoesn’t call or text me toask where I am, or driveby to see where my childand I are walking. WhenI arrive home, I’ll findhis son watching TV andMack doing somethingelse.

I keep telling him Ineed respect.

What would you do ifyou were in my shoes?Temperatures are in themid-90s here in the sum-mer, and it can get to youwhen you’re walking. –Upset Mama In Texas

Dear Upset: If you hav-en’t ASKED Mack to pickyou up when he leaveswork so you’re not stuckin the blazing heat – withyour child, yet – youshould.

That he wouldn’t thinkof it himself shows notonly a lack of consider-ation for your feelingsbut also for your littlegirl’s welfare.

Because his behaviorhas changed since youstarted living with him,consider this change tobe a red flag. If thingsdon’t improve, startlooking for other livingarrangements for you andyour daughter because itappears you and Mack dobetter when you’re notcohabiting.

It is dangerous, butthe only hope

Nancy Mitford, an English nov-elist who was perhaps best knownfor her essay about U and non-UEnglish (upper class and non-upperclass), said, “Surely a king wholoves pleasure is less dangerousthan one who loves glory.”

At the bridge table, a king whotakes a trick is more pleasurablethan one who proves powerless.Worse, though, is a king who doesnot take a trick when it should havedone.

In this deal, East has to make thekey plays. Defending against fourhearts, how should East plan thedefense after West leads the clubqueen?

South’s two-heart rebid guar-anteed at least a six-card suit andpromised 12-14 high-card points.

One of the keys of good defen-sive play is that if you lead a lowcard from length, you are promis-ing at least one honor in that suitand expressing an interest in tryingto win tricks in that suit. And thisapplies right through the deal, notjust at trick one.

Sometimes, though, your lowcard is not so low. Then you needto hope that partner is alive to thepossibility.

East takes the first trick with hisclub ace; ducking cannot be right,because declarer might have a sin-gleton king. Then, though, return-ing a club probably will not help.Dummy’s spades are threateningto provide declarer with discards.Instead, East should shift to thediamond eight. If partner does nothave the ace, this play will at worstconcede an unnecessary overtrick.

Here, though, West should winthe trick and return the diamondtwo, lowest from three remainingcards. This gives the defenders thefirst four tricks for down one.
