CORONAVIRUS OUTBREAK

Pritzker issues
mask mandate
Businesses, schools not complying could be fined up to $2,500
By Jamie Munks,
Rick Pearson
and Lauren Zumbach
Gov. J.B. Pritzker, declaring
Illinois is at a “make or break”
moment in fighting the co-
ronavirus pandemic, issued new
emergency rules to require busi-
nesses and schools to enforce his
mandatory face mask rules or face
the prospect of being fined.
The new rule, which got a
mixed reception from business
leaders, comes as the COVID-19
pandemic continues to stage a
resurgence in Illinois. The state’s
daily count of known coronavirus
cases on Friday topped 2,000 for
the first time in more than two
months, officials said.
Pritzker issued a mask mandate

In issuing a new mask mandate Friday, Gov. J.B. Pritzker said Illinois is
at a “make or break” moment in fighting the coronavirus pandemic.
The new rules have a three-step process that gives businesses two chances
to comply with the mask mandate:
■ First, businesses will be given a warning in the form of a written notice.
■ Next, they will be ordered to have patrons leave their property.
■ If businesses still do not comply, they can be hit with a Class A
misdemeanor, subject to a fine of $75 to $2,500.

Crestwood mayor charged in red-light camera scheme
By Joe Mahr
When red-light cameras came
to Crestwood in 2016, the village
quickly became the top-ticketing
Chicago suburb, issuing more
than $6 million in fines a year.
Now four years later, its mayor
has been indicted on federal
charges that he accepted bribes to
promote the cameras, the latest
development in a wide-ranging
political corruption probe.
According to federal prose-
cutors, Lou Presta was caught on
a March 2018 recording accept-
ing an envelope with $5,000 cash
from a representative of the
red-light camera firm, and then
lied to the FBI and IRS when
asked about it that September.
Presta, 69, is charged with
three counts of using a facility in
interstate commerce in aid of
bribery and official misconduct,
two counts of willfully filing a
false income tax return, one
count of willfully failing to file an
income tax return and one count
of making false statements to the
FBI and IRS.
Presta, who has been mayor
since 2013, denied the charges in
a statement issued through his
attorneys. The statement came
hours after Presta’s campaign
committee made an unusual fil-
ing with the State Board of
Elections, in which it disclosed
that in March 2018, a then-
SafeSpeed representative pro-
vided him “election day workers
and expenses” collectively worth
$5,000. The connection to
Presta’s criminal charges is un-
clear.

Lightfoot announced her

“She will continue to fol-

ence Friday that he had
reached out to Scott and
wished him well.
When asked about
whether Lightfoot should
self-quarantine or take
more precautions, Pritzker
said, “She has a doctor. I’m
not going to make advice
here about that. Look, I just
want people to do the right
thing and, you know, keep
everybody around them safe
and healthy. And, of course,
I want the mayor to be safe

the best advice is that she’s
been given I know she will
follow.”

counties, a fraction of the
size of CPS spread out over
a much larger geographic
area — announced reopen-
ing plans in early July,
calling for a full return to
in-person learning, paired
with proper safety mea-
sures. The dioceses of Joli-
et and Rockford have un-
veiled similar plans.
The archdiocese’s chief
human resource officer,
Justin Lombardo, said the
reopening plan is still in
line with public health
guidance, noting that the
Catholic school system dif-
fers greatly from that of
CPS.
The Chicago Depart-
ment of Public Health “has
come out to us and told us
that they support our plan
for reopening, based on the
current situation, and that
we’re doing what we need
to do to reopen safely,”
Lombardo told the Tribune
on Wednesday. “We under-
stand that if the public
guidance changes … we’re
ready to pivot on that. But I
think the important thing is
to recognize school sys-
tems are different.”
Archdiocesan officials
say they will make e-learn-
ing available for any family
that is not comfortable re-
turning to schools but pro-
vided few explicit details of
what that would look like.
For teachers on the other
hand who express concern
about the safety of in-
person instruction, Lom-
bardo said the archdiocese,
“will make every effort to
find ways for them to con-
tinue contributing to the
education of the children in
the Catholic schools.”

given a warning in the form
of a written notice. If they
don’t voluntarily comply,
they will then be ordered to
have patrons leave their
property “as needed to com-
ply with public health guid-
ance and reduce risks,”
Pritzker’s office said in a
news release announcing
the rules.
If businesses still do not
comply, they can receive a
Class A misdemeanor, sub-
ject to a fine of $75 to
$2,500.
“They need to be re-
minded and reminded and
then fined if they are not
following this rule for the
state of Illinois,” Pritzker
said at a news conference
Friday in Chicago.
“We want to make sure
that our workers are safe,
and also all the people who
are shopping are safe, all the
people who are in bars or
restaurants or in other loca-
tions, we want to make sure
they’re safe and healthy and
this is one way for us to
make sure that businesses
that have been scofflaws on
this subject know there is a
real penalty at the end of the
line here.”
Pritzker said individuals
are not subject to penalties
for not complying with the
mask mandate.
“Look, I’ve said all along I
do not want for police to be
arresting people or penaliz-
ing individuals,” Pritzker
said. “On the other hand,
I’ve asked local authorities
including police, including
local health authorities, to
remind people as frequently
as they possibly can that
they need to follow this
mask mandate.”
Pritzker was joined in the
announcement Friday by
representatives of organ-
ized labor, teachers unions
and other interest groups.
“It would be catastrophic
to shut down our economy
once again. It would be the
death of the hospitality in-
dustry here in the state of
Illinois,” said Sam Toia,
president of the Illinois
Restaurant Association,
whose members have been
hit hard by restrictions put
in place because of the
pandemic.

ation, criticized the new

ment that it “lacks in com-
mon sense and is a slap in
the face to the thousands of
retailers who have sacri-
ficed so much during this
pandemic while actively
supporting ever-changing
health and safety guidelines
adopted by the state.”
“If the goal is to put
public health above politics,
the administration will
amend the rule to focus
enforcement efforts on in-
dividuals who are not com-
plying instead of punishing
and attempting to demon-
ize innocent businesses,”
Karr said.
Some businesses said
they weren’t worried about
potential penalties because
they’re strictly enforcing
mask rules.
If a customer shows up
without a mask, “we’re not
letting them in,” said Paul
Kozy, owner of Kozy’s Cy-
clery, which has three stores
in Chicago. “No shoes, no
shirt, no mask, no service.”
His stores’ doors are
locked so employees can
limit the number of shop-
pers inside, which makes it
easy to enforce the mask
requirement. Most custom-
ers have had no problems
complying, he said.
Linda Johnson, owner of
Village True Value in West-
ern Springs, also said cus-
tomers have been good
nate to have such a large
campus, with ample out-
door space to hold elective
classes as well as Mass.
But one suburban
teacher, who requested
anonymity because of con-
cerns about job security,
said not all schools in the
Catholic system have the
space to make this plan
viable. The teacher said
co-workers are struggling
to bring classrooms up to
standards of the archdio-
cese and the Centers for
Disease Control and Pre-
vention. Though the
school’s plan is very de-
tailed, the teacher ex-
pressed skepticism that it
could be successfully fol-
lowed.
“And it feels like we’re so
about respecting the mask
mandate. But she said she
still doesn’t think it’s right
for the state to penalize
businesses for shoppers’ ac-
tions, even though the hard-
ware store’s customers have
been good about respecting
the rules.
“We definitely, abso-
lutely, support individuals
wearing masks. That goes
without saying. But if the
governor believes individu-
als are not complying, I
believe the enforcement
should be on the individual.
We can’t control what they
do,” Johnson said.
Opposition to the new
rule also came from the
political sector. Illinois
House Republican leader
Jim Durkin, who earlier in
the week accused Pritzker
of overstepping his author-
ity in dealing with the pan-
demic, urged the governor
to “abandon his mask rule”
and convene the legislature
on the issue.
Durkin said the rule
places “undue hardship” on
businesses already strug-
gling from the pandemic.
The Western Springs law-
maker also repeated his
request for lawmakers to
also take up ethics reform.
The Illinois Department
of Public Health on Friday
reported 2,084 newly con-
firmed cases of COVID-19
focused on the safety de-
tails that at this point we
can’t even be focused on
learning,” the teacher said.
The educator said input
from the teaching staff has
not been considered at any
point in the planning proc-
ess, even though it is their
lives on the line.
“We as a collective are
dedicated to what we do,
and we truly believe in the
mission of educating the
next generation of the
church,” the teacher said. “I
would appreciate some
consideration and some
loyalty to me as a teacher.”
Some parents are facing
similar tough choices, as
they say it is now clear to
them the archdiocese does
not plan to change course

and 21 additional confirmed
deaths, raising the state-
wide totals to 190,508 cases
and 7,613 deaths since the
pandemic began earlier this
year. The department also
listed 13 counties at “warn-
ing level” for a coronavirus
resurgence, based on key
metrics it uses to monitor
cases and the potential for
spread.
The entire state has been
in the fourth phase of
Pritzker’s reopening plan
since late June, but the
governor has repeatedly
warned that regions where
the COVID-19 metrics show
a resurgence could go back
to stricter rules aimed at
slowing the spread of the
highly contagious co-
ronavirus.
Prior to a four-day, pan-
demic-spurred special leg-
islative session in May,
Pritzker’s administration
filed a controversial emer-
gency rule with a legislative
rule-making body that
would have made busi-
nesses that flouted the rules
in his reopening plan sub-
ject to a Class A misde-
meanor.
Pritzker withdrew that
rule amid pushback among
legislators because it made
jail an enforceable option
against business owners
that failed to abide by the
STACEY WESCOTT/CHICAGO TRIBUNE
before this fall. One North
Shore parent, who asked to
remain anonymous be-
cause of their connection to
their school, said even as
the situation with the pan-
demic has evolved, the
archdiocese’s plan has re-
mained the same.
“They are sticking to
their guns, but that seems
to be unrealistic,” the par-
ent said. “A lot has hap-
pened since July.”
Previously, some parents
raised concerns about
plans floated at some Cath-
olic schools to use outside
providers for remote learn-
ing. Archdiocese officials
said this week they are still
finalizing plans for those
who opt out of classroom
instruction.
governor’s emergency ac-
tions. That prompted some
local prosecutors and law
enforcement to choose not
to enforce them. Pritzker
said he wanted to make
clear that enforcement
would ultimately be
through fines, not jail.
The difference in the
new rule is that it “focuses
on warning and then a fine,”
Pritzker said Friday.
“What’s available to us in
the law is only essentially a
misdemeanor immediately
as a solution to the problem
and that was something that
JCAR (Joint Committee on
Administrative Rules) did
not want us to move for-
ward with,” he said. “And so
we made alterations. We’ve
spoken with many mem-
bers of the General Assem-
bly, including members of
JCAR.”
Pritzker said Friday the
administration withdrew
the earlier emergency rule
this spring “because the
legislature said they would
take it up in session.”
“They didn’t do that. And
now, there are a variety of
reasons they didn’t do that.
Now is the time. This is a
make-or-break moment for
the state of Illinois for
making sure people are do-
ing everything they can to
mitigate, to reduce the
spread,” Pritzker said. “And
Among the alternatives
under consideration are
“prepackaged” lessons
from an unspecified out-
side educational company
or a remote curriculum
developed by the archdio-
cese.
At St. Paul, only three
children have opted for
remote learning out of
about 600 students, Mick-
elburgh said.
The parent is holding out
hope for some sort of re-
mote program offered
through the archdiocese
but is growing increasingly
worried as summer comes
to an end, saying: “You start
to get scared and start to
almost feel like you have no
option but to send your
child back.”
so this is a moment for us to
enforce the masking re-
quirements across the
state.”
Pritzker has found his
actions subject to legal chal-
lenges around Illinois and
has largely been successful
in fighting them off — ex-
cept in Downstate’s Clay
County, where Judge
Michael McHaney ruled in
a case brought by GOP state
Rep. Darren Bailey of Xenia
that the governor’s powers
to issue emergency orders
ended July 2.
Earlier this week,
Pritzker referred to
McHaney’s rulings against
him as “ridiculous.” On Fri-
day, McHaney ordered
Pritzker to appear before
him on Aug. 14 to show why
the governor should not be
held in indirect civil con-
tempt and sanctioned for
his “willful disregard” of the
court. The order notes that
“failure to appear may re-
sult in a warrant for arrest.”
Pritzker spokeswoman
Jordan Abudayyeh said the
judicial order pushed by
Bailey was a “sideshow.”
“This motion for con-
tempt is legally baseless,
frivolous and a distraction
from the serious crisis fac-
ing our state,” she said. “Not
a single member of the GOP
caucus in the General As-
sembly has yet to publicly
express their rejection of or
outrage at this legal maneu-
vering that creates unneces-
sary confusion around pub-
lic health guidance.”
Pritzker issued the new
rule on masks in tandem
with signing a new state law
expanding workplace pro-
tections for retail workers
who have become targets
for trying to enforce the
state’s mandatory mask pol-
icy. The legislation was
passed by the General As-
sembly in May.
The new law enhances
the penalty from battery to
aggravated battery for as-
saulting or battering a retail
worker who is conveying
public health guidelines,
such as a mask requirement
or social distancing. It also
increases by 60 days the
paid disability leave benefits
for law enforcement, fire-
fighters and paramedics for
any injury occurring after
March 9 whose recovery
was hindered by COVID-19.
The new law takes effect
immediately.

Solid report is nothing to celebrate
Hiring in US slows
down with 1.8M
jobs added in July
By Christopher
Rugaber
Associated Press
WASHINGTON — The
United States added 1.8 mil-
lion jobs in July, a pullback
from the gains of May and
June and evidence that the
resurgent coronavirus has
weakened hiring and the
economic rebound.
At any other time, hiring
at that level would be seen
as a blowout gain. But after
employers shed 22 million
jobs in March and April,
much larger increases are
needed to heal the job
market. The hiring of the
past three months has re-
covered only 42% of the
jobs lost to the pandemic-
induced recession, accord-
ing to the Labor Depart-
ment’s jobs report released
Friday.
With much of the nation
having paused or reversed
plans to restore economic
activity, many employers
are still reluctant or unable
to hire and consumers re-
main generally hesitant to
shop, travel or eat out. Until
the health crisis is solved
through a vaccine or an
effective treatment, most
experts say the economy
will struggle to sustain any
recovery.
Though the unemploy-
ment rate fell last month
from 11.1% to 10.2%, that
level still exceeds the high-
est rate during the 2007-
2009 Great Recession.
“The progress is encour-
aging, but let’s not lose sight
of where we currently are,”
said Nick Bunker, economic
research director at the jobs
website Indeed. “By both

10 times since 2014
By Bassem Mroue
Associated Press
BEIRUT — At least 10
times over the past six years,
authorities from Lebanon’s
customs, military, security
agencies and judiciary
raised alarm that a massive
stockpile of explosive
chemicals was being kept
with almost no safeguard at
the port in the heart of
Beirut, newly surfaced
documents show.
Yet nothing was done —
and on Tuesday, the 2,750
tons of ammonium nitrate
blew up, obliterating the
city’s main commercial hub
and spreading death and
wreckage for miles around.
President Michel Aoun,
in office since 2016, said
Friday he was first told of
the dangerous stockpile
nearly three weeks ago and
immediately ordered mili-
tary and security agencies to
do “what was needed.” But
he suggested his responsi-
bility ended there, saying he
had no authority over the
port and that previous gov-
ernments had been told of
its presence.

intelligence officials believe
Russia is using a variety of
measures to denigrate

The jobs report emerged
as new infections run at
about 55,000 a day. While
that’s down from a peak of
well over 70,000 in the
second half of July, cases are
rising in about half of the
states, and deaths are climb-
ing in many of them.
The acceleration of the

late June more than

firmed case count by mid-
July. The rate of new re-
ported cases has since de-
problems have been accu-
mulating?” Aoun replied
when a reporter pressed
whether he should have
followed up on his order.
The documents surfacing
on social media since the
blast underscore the cor-
ruption, negligence and in-
competence of Lebanon’s
long-ruling political oli-
garchy, and its failure to
provide its people with basic
needs, including security.
Investigators probing the
blast have focused on per-
sonnel at the Port of Beirut
— so well known for corrup-
tion its nickname is Ali
Baba’s Cave.
At least 16 port employees
have been detained and oth-
ers questioned. On Friday,
investigators questioned
and then ordered the deten-
tion of the head of the port,
Hassan Koraytem, the coun-
try’s customs chief, Badri
Daher, and Daher’s prede-
cessor.
The explosion of the am-
monium nitrate, after appar-
ently being set off by a fire,
was the biggest blast in
Lebanon’s history. The
known death toll reached
154, including bodies recov-
ered Friday; more than
5,000 people were
wounded. Billions of dollars
in damage was caused
across the city, where many
that China does not want
Trump to win a second
term and that Beijing has
accelerated its criticism of
the president and its efforts
to shape American opinion
and public policy.
The statement from
William Evanina comes
amid criticism from House
Speaker Nancy Pelosi and
other congressional Demo-
crats that the intelligence
community has been with-
holding from the public
specific intelligence infor-
mation about the threat of
foreign election interfer-
clined.
In the United States,
there have been more than
4.9 million confirmed co-
ronavirus cases, with over
160,000 deaths, according
to Johns Hopkins Uni-
versity. Worldwide, there
have been more than 19
million confirmed cases and
almost 717,000 deaths, the
same count said. But many
health experts, however, be-
lieve that the figures repre-
sent an undercount of actu-
al cases and deaths.
Evidence suggests the
pandemic’s damage to the
economy will take longer to
mend than was envisioned
in the spring. Back then, the

Lebanon’s financial crisis to
rebuild.
Aoun’s comments were
the most senior confirma-
tion that top politicians had
been aware of the stockpile.
“The material had been
there for seven years, since
2013. It has been there, and
they said it is dangerous and
I am not responsible. I don’t
know where it was placed. I
don’t even know the level of
danger. I have no authority
to deal directly with the
port,” he told a press confer-
ence.
He said that when he was
told of the stockpile on July
20, he immediately ordered
military and security offi-
cials “to do what is needed.”
“There are ranks that
should know their duties,
and they were all informed.
When you refer a document
and say, ‘Do what is needed,’
isn’t that an order?” he
added.
He said the explosion
may have been caused by
negligence, but the investi-
gation would also look at the
possibility that it could have
been caused by a bomb or
other “external interven-
tion.” Aoun said he had
asked France for satellite
images from the time of the

widespread hope was that
temporarily shutting down
the economy would defeat
the virus, after which busi-
nesses could quickly reopen
and call back their laid-off
workers.
Those recalls are hap-
pening, and they accounted
for the bulk of July’s job
gain. But the resurgence of
the virus in much of the
country has reversed some
reopenings and likely made
it harder for many people to
get back to work. Nearly

A man sleeps outdoors Friday near the port in Beirut, Lebanon. The death toll from this
week’s massive explosion at the port reached 154 and more than 5,000 were wounded.
The ammonium nitrate, a
chemical used in fertilizers
and explosives, originated
from a cargo ship that had
been traveling from the
country of Georgia to
Mozambique in 2013. It
made an unscheduled de-
tour to Beirut as the Russian
shipowner was struggling
with debts and hoped to
earn extra cash in Lebanon.
Unable to pay port fees and
reportedly leaking, it was
impounded.

aides are nervous that the
recovery is still fragile. The
president remained out of

three-day weekend at his
Bedminster, New Jersey,

His Democratic oppo-
nent, Joe Biden, was quick
to blame Trump for the
potentially faltering recov-
ery.
“It did not have to be this
bad. We are in a deeper
economic hole than we
should be because of Don-

Sturgis revs up as some worry
about ‘superspreader’ risk
By Stephen Groves
Associated Press
STURGIS, S.D. — Thou-
sands of bikers poured into
a small South Dakota city on
Friday as the 80th Sturgis
Motorcycle Rally rumbled
to life despite fears it could
lead to a massive co-
ronavirus outbreak.
The rally could be one of
the largest public gather-
ings since the pandemic
began, with organizers ex-
pecting 250,000 people
from all over the country to
make their way through
Sturgis during the 10-day
event. That would be
roughly half the number of
previous years, but local
residents — and a few bikers
— worry that the crowds
could create a “super-
spreader” event.
Many who rode into
Sturgis Friday expressed
defiance at the rules and
restrictions that have

US slaps sanctions
on pro-China leader
of Hong Kong, others
WASHINGTON — The
U.S. on Friday imposed
sanctions on Hong Kong
officials, including the pro-
China leader of the govern-
ment, accusing them of co-
operating with Beijing’s ef-
fort to undermine autono-
my and crack down on
freedom in the former
British colony.
The sanctions are the
latest in a string of actions
the Trump administration
has taken targeting China as
tensions between the two
nations rise over trade,
COVID-19 and other issues.
President Donald Trump’s
offensive against China
comes as he assigns full
blame to Beijing for the
coronavirus outbreak in the
U.S., deflecting criticism of
his own handling of the
pandemic that threatens his
reelection.
The Treasury Depart-
ment announced sanctions
on Carrie Lam, the leader of
the government in Hong
Kong, and 10 other officials.
The sanctions were author-
ized by an executive order
that Trump signed recently
to levy penalties against
China for its efforts to cur-
tail anti-government pro-
testers in Hong Kong.
Hong Kong has long en-
joyed civil liberties not seen
in mainland China because
it is governed under a “one
country, two systems” prin-
ciple in place since it re-
verted to Chinese rule in
1997.
However, Beijing im-
posed a sweeping national
security law on Hong Kong
earlier this year, raising
widespread concerns about
the Chinese government
cracking down on the anti-
government protests.
“The recent imposition of
draconian national security
legislation on Hong Kong

marked life in many locales

fered a reprieve from co-
ronavirus restrictions, as
South Dakota has no special
limits on indoor crowds, no
mask mandates and a gover-
nor eager to welcome visi-
tors — and the money they
bring.
“Screw COVID,” read the
design on one T-shirt being
hawked. “I went to Sturgis.”
Bikers rumbled past hun-
dreds of tents filled with
motorcycle gear, T-shirts
and food. Harley-Davidson
motorcycles were every-
where but masks were al-
most nowhere to be seen,

reporter counting fewer
than 10 in a crowd of thou-
sands over several hours.
For Stephen Sample, who

na, the event was a break
from the routine of the last
Hong Kong’s autonomy, it
has also infringed on the
rights of people in Hong
Kong,” the Treasury Depart-
ment said in a statement.
Treasury said the new
law has allowed authorities
in mainland China to op-
erate with impunity in Hong
Kong, has mandated “na-
tional security education” in
Hong Kong schools, under-
mined the rule of law and
laid the groundwork to cen-
sor individuals and outlets
“deemed unfriendly” to
China.
The U.S. said Lam, the
chief executive of Hong
Kong, is “directly responsi-
ble for implementing Bei-
jing’s policies of suppres-
sion of freedom and demo-
cratic processes.” Last year,
Lam pushed to allow citi-
zens to be extradited to the
mainland, setting off mas-
sive opposition demon-
strations in Hong Kong,
according to Treasury.
Friday’s action blocks all
property or other assets that
the individuals have within
U.S. jurisdiction.
US warns Russia: Secre-
tary of State Mike Pompeo
has warned Russia’s foreign
minister against Moscow
paying bounties to Taliban-
linked militants and other
Afghan fighters for killing
American service members,
U.S. officials said.
The warning is the first
known rebuke from a senior
American official to Russia
over the bounties program,
and it runs counter to Presi-
dent Donald Trump’s insist-
ence that the intelligence
from U.S. government agen-
cies over the matter is a
“hoax.”
Pompeo delivered the
warning July 13 in a call
with the minister, Sergey
Lavrov, choosing to do so
during a conversation that,
several months, when he’s
been mostly homebound or
wearing a mask to work.
“I don’t want to die, but I
don’t want to be cooped up
all my life either,” he said.
Still, the 66-year-old
Sample feared what could
happen if he caught
COVID-19 at the rally. He
said he was trying to avoid
indoor bars and venues,
where he felt the risk of
infection was greater. But
on the opening day of the
rally, he said he ate break-
fast at an indoor diner.
As Sample weighed the
risks of navigating the
crowds, the same thrill-
seeking that attracted him
to riding motorcycles
seemed to win out.
“I think we’re all willing
to take a chance,” he said.

Noem supported holding

officially, was about an unre-
lated topic — the possibility
of a meeting of the five
permanent members of the
U.N. Security Council, the
U.S. officials said in the past
week.
Pompeo made it clear to
Lavrov in language about
payouts and red lines that
the United States was
strongly opposed to the pro-
gram, the official said, add-
ing that the secretary of
state had been livid about
what the intelligence had
said about the bounties.
The American officials
who spoke about Pompeo’s
call did so on the condition
of anonymity.

Tribune Publishing enters talks
to leave Prudential Plaza offices
By Ryan Ori
The Chicago Tribune’s offices could be on
the move for the second time in less than
three years, as the newspaper’s parent
company seeks an exit from Prudential Plaza
amid the coronavirus pandemic.
Tribune Publishing is in talks with
Prudential Plaza owner Sterling Bay for a
buyout of its approximately 137,000-square-
foot lease in the office complex overlooking
Millennium Park, according to real estate
sources.
Sterling Bay and Tribune Publishing’s
brokers from Jones Lang LaSalle have begun
informally marketing the entire space to
potential tenants in anticipation of the
company’s exit, according to sources.
The newspaper company, whose other
titles include the Baltimore Sun and New
York Daily News, hasn’t made rent payments
at most of the properties it leases since
March, according to a regulatory filing.
It’s unclear where the Chicago Tribune’s
newsroom and offices, as well as the
corporate parent’s headquarters, would relo-
cate.
The Freedom Center printing facility
along the Chicago River has some office
space, but real estate experts are unsure the
building is large or modern enough to
accommodate even a scaled-down Tribune
office.
Tribune Publishing spokesman Max
Reinsdorf and Sterling Bay CEO Andy Gloor
declined to comment.

Tribune Tower to One Prudential Plaza in
June 2018. That ended a 93-year run in the
landmark tower on North Michigan Avenue,
which was sold in 2016 and is being
converted into condominiums.
Tribune Publishing is among many com-
panies taking steps to reduce real estate and
other costs during a pandemic that has left
many office employees working from home
since March.
Measures companies are taking include
stopping rent payments, seeking rent relief
and offering space for sublease. Uber and
Groupon are among those with sublease
space on the market, and a wave of additional
sublease offerings is expected to flood the
market in the coming months.
Before the pandemic, Tribune Publish-

company moved out of that 21,952-square-
foot space on floors 40 and 41, which had
served as the corporate headquarters.
The Tribune newsroom and other func-

floors, which have remained open but lightly
used during the pandemic. Those floors have
not been formally placed on the market for
lease.

He added the role of CEO of Tribune

off from its broadcast parent company, but

ILLINOIS’ EXODUS PROBLEM
IS A GOVERNANCE PROBLEM
By Richard Porter
Illinois has a population problem: Our
population has been shrinking faster than
any other state (except one). The Chicago
Tribune Editorial Board and others call
this the Illinois Exodus.
Population changes are a measure of
governance quality. We are free to choose
where to live, and the United States offers
50 states and thousands of different local-
ities, each governed in different ways.
People consider many factors when
choosing where to live, and how a state is
governed can be a significant factor. Over
time, people migrate toward places that
are governed well and away from areas
that are governed poorly.
Illinois’ governance is rife with prob-
lems: Our state offers residents and poten-
tial residents a high tax burden, high gov-
ernment indebtedness, both in an absolute
and a per capita basis, and high and grow-
ing crime rates in our major cities.
According to the U.S. Census Bureau,
from 1900 until 1970 when Illinois
amended its constitution to authorize an
income tax and to prohibit future reforms
of public pensions, Illinois was among the
fastest growing states in the country. Since
then, Illinois’ population growth faded,
and then Illinois started to shrink as its tax
Put life into death notices
Having checked the Tribune’s death
notices virtually every day for years, I can
state with authority that far too few close-
knit families have been attending to this
opportunity.
There once was a farcical radio ad series
for the local Max Madsen car dealership.
These portrayed Max’s panicked calls to
his genial psychiatrist, because he was
offering car prices so ridiculously low he
was constantly questioning his own sanity.
The doctor would cheerfully reassure the
unheard Max.
Madsen’s genuine death notice men-
tions the memorable ads and speculates
how he may have been opting out now
because he wasn’t prepared to endure
another mediocre Bears season, “played in
an empty stadium no less.” The notice
waxes more serious while retaining the
same appeal. Madsen was fortunate to
have had such an expert tribute composed
on his behalf. You seldom see such life in a
family-written obituary.
Couldn’t we all start injecting some
earnest emotion into them beyond “dear,”
“cherished” and “loving”? Granted there
will be close-knit families and friends too
broken following an intimate’s sudden
departure to examine their loved one’s
merits in real time. But with the elderly,
these departures can be anticipated and
reflected on, with remarks prepared well
beforehand.
Here’s an opportunity to fashion a
worthy effort, the newspaper offering
more working space than the face of a
tombstone, and a more enduring record
than the eulogy at a church service, assum-
ing in these strange days you have one.
The Madsen approach to tributes cer-
tainly has me sold, and I’m pleased to have
a surviving world-class mother of 99 to
leisurely script for myself.

Generations weigh
past, future
When someone dear to you dies, your
world changes. When your world changes,
something dear to you dies.
For those who can remember the so-
called Greatest Generation, that America is
in its death throes. To the so-called Woke
Generation, this may be a good thing; to its
survivors, we wonder. We wonder what
has happened to the sentimental land-
scapes painted by Norman Rockwell and
sung by Woody Guthrie; the national ex-
ceptionalism portrayed by our schools and
our writers; the sense of order and civility
expected of our leaders; along with the
sweeping aspirations reechoed every Me-
morial Day and Fourth of July.
Over these next 100 days, we will wit-
ness two candidates in the quadrennial
contest over who has the better grip on
that past, as they assure us they are the best
equipped to consummate it in the future.
To the younger generations, this campaign
will be about the presidency of the United
States. But to those of us who remember, it

How organ donors
save lives
Thirty-five years ago on Aug. 5, a 17-year-
old boy lost his life in a motorcycle acci-
dent. Thirty-five years ago, a grieving fam-
ily put aside its unspeakable anguish to
sign a paper granting permission to remove
his organs for donation. One can only
speculate how many lives were ultimately
saved. I can only say with certainty that
mine was one of them.
On Aug. 5, my kidney and I celebrated
our 35th birthday together. My unknown
donor would have turned 52 this year. Who
knows what potential was lost along with
that young life that fateful August day? The
“what ifs” about his life make this a bitter-
sweet anniversary for me.
But then I wonder: What if I never re-
ceived this miracle? With a supportive
husband and this special gift, I now have
two grown children and am happily re-
tired, a milestone I dared not predict 35
years ago. Every accomplishment, tiny or
grand, over the last 35 years has served as a
testimonial to the purposefulness of organ
donation.
To learn more about donating organs,

rates are “modern” and people will stay
and pay those rates. Really?
Consider a recent study by SmartAsset,
a financial website, of the states to which
high income millennials, the next genera-
tion of entrepreneurs and leaders, are
moving. Illinois is among the least attrac-
tive states for millennials — only one other
state is more unattractive.
So, what’s driving this migration of the
young and ambitious? Truth in Account-
ing’s Bill Bergman compared the 10 most
attractive states in that SmartAsset study
to the 10 least attractive states according
to several factors, including average win-
ter temperature. He found that average
winter weather is not a statistically signifi-
cant factor in choices by millennials. The
factors with the greatest statistical signifi-
cance pertain to governance: Millennials
are moving away from states that have
more lawyers per capita (a proxy for regu-
latory burdens) and higher taxpayer bur-
dens, both in terms of current taxation
and expected future burdens based on
indebtedness. They are moving to states
with fewer rules and less-costly govern-
ment.
This result is consonant with common
sense: People look for values in all areas of
their lives. Why not with respect to gov-
ernance as well?
comprehensive clearinghouse resources,
providing state-by-state updates on waiting
lists, survival rates and probabilities of
receiving a transplant. UNOS estimates
that more than 100,000 Americans — over
3,359 Illinoisans alone — await a kidney
transplant.
Another great resource for patients
seeking help is Organ Transplant Support
based in Naperville (www.otsfriends.org/).
Started by patients like me, this group truly
embodies its motto, “No one should go
through this alone.”
Signing the back of your driver’s license is
no longer adequate to ensure that your
wishes to donate will be honored. All Illinois
organ donors must reregister in the online
registry at www.DonateLifeIllinois.org. The
entire process takes 30 seconds.
The gift of life is the ultimate legacy one
can pass on. Thank you from the bottom of
my … kidney.

Trader Joe’s fanciful labels
We were delighted to read the editorial
(“Trader Joe’s sticks to its (sticky) buns,”
Aug. 5) agreeing with Trader Joe’s decision
to retain its practice of labeling products
with quirky names, such as Trader Ming’s
and Trader Giotto’s. As the editorial points
out: “In the hypersensitive culture we’re
now exposed to, with the offense-O-meter

Illinois, which ranked second-to-last in
the SmartAsset study, also ranked second-
to-last in Truth in Accounting’s latest
“State of the States” study of state govern-
ment finances. Truth in Accounting’s
“Taxpayer Burden” measures unfunded
government obligations, including bonded
debt and government employee retire-
ment benefit promises. It represents the
burden that past politicians have accumu-
lated and loaded on future taxpayers, such
as millennials.
In a recent Gallup poll, Illinois ranked
dead last in the 50 states on trust in state
government. Public corruption plays a big
role in that ranking, of course, but trust in
Illinois government management of fi-
nances also helps explain why people have
been voting with their feet.
Does anyone actually believe that rais-
ing taxes further, and thereby raising the
cost of living, building a business or rais-
ing a family here, will make Illinois a more
attractive place to live? Not likely. The
proposed tax hike would exacerbate the
Illinois Exodus, reducing property market
values and increasing the expected tax
burden on those who remain.

Reinventing election coverage

Don’t count on
seeing wall-to-wall
‘experts’ cramming
into TV studios
By Stephen Battaglio
Los Angeles Times

In the 72 years that television

has covered national elections,
there has been one constant on
the screen: wall-to-wall people.
Jammed nominating conven-
tion halls and flesh-pressing
rallies are the signature images of
every presidential campaign.
Election night — the Super Bowl
for TV news organizations — is a
marathon vote-counting jam
session where anchors, reporters
and commentators flow through
the studios into the wee hours of
the morning.
But those scenes familiar to
political junkies will be obliter-
ated by the coronavirus crisis that
has upended every aspect of
American life. Social distancing
has already changed the look of
TV news, as many journalists CNN

have been broadcasting from
their homes since mid-March,
and it will drastically alter how
viewers experience coverage of
the race for the White House as it
heads into the home stretch.
“It’s all going to look a lot dif-
ferent without us even knowing
what different is going to look
like,” said Rick Klein, political
director for ABC News.
Calibrating the number of
personnel needed to cover events
while being mindful of health
protocols has become the focus of
TV news executives as they try to
plan for what they consider the
most consequential presidential
election in decades.
“This was already going to be a
fascinating and complicated
election in all sorts of ways,” said
Sam Feist, Washington bureau
chief for CNN. “But COVID is
what really changed it.”
The parties have scaled back
their nominating conventions,
which provide cable news outlets
with some of their largest audi-
ences of the year. The Republican
National Committee canceled its
plans to have President Trump
accept his nomination in Jack-
sonville, Florida, on Aug. 27.
While some party meetings
will be held in Charlotte, North
Carolina, networks still don’t have
a schedule for the week’s events
or a location for the nominee’s
traditional Thursday night speech
— though Trump has suggested
he could deliver it from the Oval
Office.
Presumptive Democratic no-
minee Joe Biden will no longer
accept the Democratic presi-
dential nomination on Aug. 20 in
Milwaukee, Wisconsin, officials
said Wednesday, in the latest and
strongest sign that the Demo-
cratic National Convention will
be almost entirely virtual.
Biden will instead accept the
Democratic nomination for presi-
dent from his home state of Dela-
ware, according to the DNC Com-
mittee.
Networks typically send as
many as 300 staffers to cover a
convention, with anchors, report-
ers, technical crews, makeup
artists and other support teams
descending on the designated
city. Those numbers will be sig-
nificantly lower this time around.
Remote trucks with control
rooms that usually line up outside
of an arena will be missing as
Donald Trump, flanked by Mike Pence, left, and son Barron Trump, claims victory on election night in New York in 2016.
Social distancing will break up the usual number of political analysts.
most news operations produce
their coverage from their head-
quarters in New York or Wash-
ington.
Cherie Grzech, vice president
of the Washington bureau for Fox
News, said she is likely to have
three or four reporter-producer
teams on the ground, compared
to as many as nine for a typical
convention.
“We have to find the balancing
moment of being there and giving
a firsthand account while at the
same time keeping our staff safe,”
Grzech said.
While convention plans are
still being formulated by the
political parties — the Democrats
are scheduled for Aug. 17-20
while the Republicans convene
the following week — journalists
assigned to cover the gatherings
can only prepare to deal with the
unknown. But they know they
won’t be in the scrums of conven-
tions past.
CBS News political corre-
spondent Ed O’Keefe had imag-
ined himself in the footsteps of
the network’s broadcast legends
Bob Schieffer and Ed Bradley.
“It’s bittersweet because I
wanted to be one of those guys
with a headset and a long micro-
phone running around the floor
of a basketball arena,” he said.
“The sweet part is no matter what
it looks like, it’s going to be his-
toric.”
The look of election night on
Nov. 3 promises to be even more
of mystery as every TV news
organization believes the increase
in mail-in voting that is expected
due to the pandemic will make
FOX NEWS
the process of tabulating results
and calling state-by-state winners
to reach 270 electoral votes a slow
and laborious process. Anchors
and reporters are already refer-
ring to it as “election week.”
Only twice in the 12 presi-
dential elections since 1972 have
viewers gone to bed without
knowing the winner of a presi-
dential race. In 2020, it’s almost a
certainty to happen again.
“I have told my wife, my family
and my friends that election night
might be the beginning of a days-
or weekslong saga, potentially,”
O’Keefe said. “Americans have to
prepare mentally and emotionally
for that.”
Every major TV news organi-
zation has a “decision desk,”
where statisticians and political
analysts look at historical voting
trends, polling data and the actual
vote count as it comes in before
calling a winner in each state.
During election coverage, the
dozen or more members of deci-
sion desk teams are typically
packed into a conference room
where they can quickly deliberate
and make calls based on the data
they have.
Social distancing will break up
the traditional cluster of number
crunchers.
Network news executives say
they are now rethinking the deci-
sion desk set-up, with at least one
planning to move the personnel
involved to a larger facility where
they can still be on site together
rather than risk having the whims
of technology slow down the
process of calling races. They may
have to work in shifts as well.
“It’s not ‘What hour of the
night do we need you to stay
around?’ ” Grzech said. “It’s ‘Let’s
plan for staying for the full week
and what we’re going to do at
certain hours when people have
to sleep.’ ”
There are also scenarios where
viewers will have to endure pro-
longed legal battles similar to the
monthlong struggle that occurred
in 2000, when the razor-thin
margin of the vote in Florida led
to a recount in the race between
George W. Bush and former Vice
President Al Gore. The U.S.
Supreme Court ultimately settled
the dispute over the recount in
favor of Bush, five weeks after
votes were cast.
“You could have hanging chads
all over the country,” said CBS
News President Susan Zirinsky,
referring to the iconic image of
the Florida recount.
Network news executives
know they may be in for an en-
durance test. Zirinsky said Norah
O’Donnell will anchor the “CBS
Evening News” from the net-
work’s election night set in Wash-
ington until a winner is declared.
CNN’s Feist expects to have relief
ready for John King, who stands
before the network’s “magic wall”
that shows the distribution of
electoral votes throughout the
count until a candidate reaches
270.
President Trump has already
publicly tried to raise the poten-
tial for fraud through mail-in
voting, although the number of
such confirmed cases is infinitesi-
mal. It’s why networks are also
gearing up to track the potential
legal challenges that could come
after the vote.
NBC News has assembled a
team named Vote Watch, made
up of investigative correspond-
ents and legal experts who spe-
cialize in election law and voting
rights.
“We had a version of this team
in the last election cycle, and
we’ve dramatically expanded it
and gotten into work early this
cycle because we believe that
these issues will be central to the
outcome,” said NBC News Presi-
dent Noah Oppenheim.
The pandemic has also pre-
sented unexpected challenges for
correspondents covering Biden.
While Trump has the forum of
the White House to connect with
the press every day if he wants,
Biden has limited his travel, doing
most of his campaign events
remotely from his Delaware
home with occasional trips to
Pennsylvania.
Fox News correspondent Peter
Doocy wore out a suitcase with a
lifetime guarantee as he tailed
Biden all over the country during
the primary campaign in 2019
and the pre-pandemic months of
this year where he was able to
regularly lob questions at the
candidate. But his replacement
luggage is sitting in the closet of
his Washington apartment, barely
used.
“It’s a lot different than what
we became accustomed to,”
Doocy said. “When the primary
started there were so many candi-
dates and everybody was so eager
to talk in order to stand out. Now
there’s just one and it is difficult
to get close enough to get his
attention.”
The lack of public events for
Biden makes it more difficult to
gauge voter enthusiasm.
“It’s impossible to know in real
time what people think about
what he is saying as opposed to
pre-pandemic, where you can just
turn around and there were a
couple of dozen people there,”
Doocy said. “Now it’s an empty
parking lot.”
Networks were criticized for
devoting so much time to
Trump’s 2016 campaign and the
carnival atmosphere it created. A
study by the Shorenstein Center
on Media, Politics and Public
Policy at Harvard University
found that during the period from
August to November 2016, Trump
received 15% more coverage than
his Democratic opponent Hillary
Clinton.
Avoiding a similar imbalance in
2020 could be a challenge, as
correspondents say there is a
paucity of opportunities to ques-
tion Biden as the public health
crisis has limited his public ap-
pearances.
“I do know if Biden was doing
more in-person events we would
be taking more of them live,”
Doocy said. “It would certainly
make it a lot easier around dead-
line. We definitely don’t have as
much to work with as cycles
past.”

Nolan hits Music Box inversion” and quantum physics,

‘Tenet’ opens Sept. 3 on 70mm at the theater,
preceded by a 3-week run of 2010’s ‘Inception’
By Michael Phillips
It’s a national pandemic exclu-
sive. On Aug. 14, the Music Box
Theatre will premiere a newly
struck 70 millimeter print of
Christopher Nolan’s 2010 thriller
“Inception.”
It’ll be the first theater in the
country to show the 10th anniver-
sary re-release in the widescreen
film format, according to theater
officials.
The three-week Music Box
engagement gets a seven-day
head start on the other, digitally
projected Chicago area “Incep-
tion” screenings beginning Aug.
21, at theaters to be announced.
Then: On Sept. 3, the Music
Box will unveil a 70mm presenta-
tion of “Tenet,” Nolan’s latest
starring John David Washington,
Robert Pattinson and Elizabeth
Debecki.
Barring any change in release
strategy by distributor Warner
Bros., and unless Chicago city
COVID-19 regulations tighten up
again, “Tenet” will open on vari-
ous other Chicago screens Sept. 4,
as it will in some other major U.S.
markets. Los Angeles and New

will open Aug. 26 in over 70 coun-

should take this on without
prompting.
At the end of every day,
before the kids go to bed,
you should lead them
around the house for a
clean sweep. Set a timer,
make a game of it, and lead
them on a little inspection
parade when you’re done,
so everyone can see you’ve
worked as a team.
You should encourage
your wife to get enough
alone time away from the
household, if that will help,
but she should also work
harder to be more tolerant.
If she truly believed that
you were stepping up, she
might be able to step back.
Dear Amy: My extended
family recently had a small
get-together in a park. One
of my young cousins found
out later that day that she
might have been exposed
to the coronavirus at work.
Her mother, “Shelly,”
didn’t reach out to any of
my family members to
inform us what was hap-
pening concerning her
daughter. A member of the
family reached out, and
her only response was that
she was being tested.
She never let us know
the results. (They have
both had time to post pic-
tures of themselves enjoy-
ing various activities.)
I am angry that they
didn’t have the courtesy to
inform us about what was
going on. A simple text
with a quick update would
have sufficed. Everyone in
attendance that day could
have been exposed.
How should we handle
this situation?
— In The Dark
Dear In The Dark: I agree
that “Shelly” (or her
daughter) should keep
everyone who attended the
gathering informed of her
test status. However, due to
the incubation period of
the virus, testing immedi-
ately after a possible expo-
sure might not necessarily
be accurate.
Contact your doctor to
ask if testing would be
recommended. Monitor
your temperature each
day. If testing is widely
available where you live,
after you do your research,
you might rest easier if you
go through the testing
process. Remember — the
test detects traces of the
virus in your body on the
day you are tested. It is not
predictive.
Out of an abundance of
caution, you should limit
your out-of-the-home
activities for the next cou-
ple of weeks.
Dear Amy: Can you please
alert runners, bikers and
walkers to the dangers of
wearing earbuds while on
roadways?
On many occasions, I
have witnessed earbud
users wander, drift and
dart into roadways, un-
aware that there are cars
alongside them. Cars at
times have to swerve into
oncoming traffic to avoid
their sudden presence.
Yes, I know they have
the right to be there, but
they also must have an
awareness of the vehicle
traffic.
— Mike
Dear Mike: Earbuds that
completely block out ambi-
ent noise also create other
safety issues. Thank you
for the cautionary advice.

Latino creators: ‘Just open the door’

Hollywood groups
foster solidarity,
bridge talent, execs
By Laura Zornosa
Los Angeles Times
The outrage was instant
and loud. And warranted.
No Latino creatives
appeared in any of the
major categories when
nominations for the 72nd
Emmy Awards were an-
nounced last week. How is
that even possible, people
raged, especially given
“One Day at a Time’s”
tongue-in-cheek laughs,
“Vida’s” queer joy and “Los
Espookys’” oddball humor?
The erasure of Latinos is
not exactly news, though.
Over the last five years,
82% of nominees in 19
Primetime Emmy catego-
ries were white. A mere 1%
were Latino.
As the subsequent back-
lash to this year’s nomina-
tions reignites debate about
Hollywood’s failure to
represent Latino characters
on-screen, a movement
toward inclusion behind
the camera is taking place
behind the scenes.
One morning in 2015,
about 20 Latinas took up
every single chair on Gloria
Calderon Kellett’s patio —
and she had made turkey
burgers for everyone.
The Latina TV Writers
Brunch Group began that
very day at the “One Day at
a Time” showrunner’s
house, and today it includes
about 155 members. Co-
founder Judalina Neira is
amazed that the group has
multiplied fivefold.
“I think that’s such a
testament to the explosion
of growth and the repre-
sentation that we’re gain-
ing,” she said. “It’s still not
enough, but we’re gaining.”
Neira’s group, which she
co-founded with fellow TV
writer Diana Mendez, was
inspired by Black Women
Who Brunch and a similar
group for Black men in the
industry. In turn, La Lista,
the Latina TV Writers
Brunch Group’s online
TV writers Diana Mendez, left, and Judalina Neira formed the Latina TV Writers Brunch Group and La Lista.
talent directory, inspired
the Latinx Directors co-
founders who recently
launched their own data-
base.
From La Lista to the
Latinx Directors database
to the inaugural Latinx TV
List, the vastly underrepre-
sented community is col-
laborating throughout
Hollywood to bridge Latino
talent with executives and
producers — and to foster
solidarity among one an-
other.
“Our purpose is really to
get us into the rooms where
our voices can be heard,
where our unique point of
views can be heard, where
our experiences can be
heard,” Mendez said. “And
keep us in those rooms and
keep us moving up the
ranks long enough to take
ownership of those stories
and be in charge of the
rooms.”
La Lista answers the
question “Where are the
Latino/a writers?,” which
the duo often hears floating
around the industry. The
list began as an internal
resource to keep the group
organized, but soon enough
others began to ask for it.
Although the list has led
to getting Latina writers in
front of showrunners, the
women still see a trend:
Black and brown writers
are asked to repeat the
same level over and over.
That is, they’re barred from
climbing the ladder toward
becoming showrunners.
At the same time, just
4.7% of screenwriters are
Latino, even though Lat-
inos make up 18.3% of the
U.S. population. A solution
to that disparity lies in
who’s hiring.
“We feel that putting
writers of color in positions
of authority, and in hiring
positions specifically, leads
to more people of color
being hired regardless of
their ethnicity,” Neira said.

ise you will not — you won’t
realize the spice you didn’t
have in your life until you
work with us. And let us
bring our spice to the work
that we’ve done.”
One way to crack that
door ajar is through ampli-
fication — and tantalizing
deals. Hulu, the Black List
and an array of partner
organizations did just that
with the inaugural Latinx
TV List, which was an-
nounced at the end of June.
Writer and producer
Paloma Martinez’s script,
“El Borde,” or “The Edge,”
— a story about the envi-
ronment, mutation and
cultural fusion — was one
of 10 selected. Beatrice
Springborn, Hulu’s vice
president of content,
reached out to propose that
the streaming giant meet
with all 10 writers — and
offer a script deal to two of
them.
“The first word that
comes to mind is recog-
nition,” Martinez said.
“We’ve been there: We’ve
been writing, we’ve been
hustling, we’ve been work-
ing our way up in the ranks,
from assistants up to execu-
tives. Especially being a
woman of color, being
BIPOC, LGBTQIA, is like
when if you’re not what the
industry is used to, they
tend to want someone to
vet you.”
And vet the scripts they
did. Latino writers submit-
ted scripts through the
Black List, a screenplay-
rating platform, which read
them for quality then
passed on a select group to
the Latin Tracking Board,
the National Association of
Latino Independent Pro-
ducers (NALIP), Remezcla
and the Untitled Latinx
Project (ULP) to evaluate.
“Boom,” said Black List
founder Franklin Leonard.
“Here’s a bunch of great
scripts. Not only can the
Black List validate their
quality, but these other
organizations in the Latinx
community can vouch for
their excitement about this
version of representation in
the community.”

“Why does everything happen to me?”
Lucky Larry played the same contract with the same

however, Larry discarded his singleton heart. East
continued with the queen of diamonds, ruffed by Larry with

Kubalik’s winner sends Hawks to Round 1: ‘Now the real fun begins’

are a playoff team.
The 12th-seeded Hawks beat the No. 5
Edmonton Oilers 3-2 Friday night on a

Friday from sus-

after learning a
player experienced a false pos-
itive COVID-19 test.
The Wildcats called off
workouts and quarantined 37
players after one player tested
positive July 31. After multiple
follow-up tests, coach Pat
Fitzgerald told reporters Fri-
day on a video conference that
all players and staff tested
negative and were cleared
Wednesday.
“We’re still batting 1.000,”
he said, noting the team hasn’t
experienced a true positive
result. “It shows our plan and
the execution of our plan has
been flawless.”
Fitzgerald said he’ll contin-
ue to follow the team’s medical
advisers’ guidance when
asked how Northwestern will
handle player availability and
quarantining for any future
positives during the season.
Several players quarantined
during the season would
surely lead to a canceled game.
“We felt like it was the right
decision to start the week,”
Fitzgerald said of quarantin-
ing players.
Fitzgerald said players were
thrilled to learn Wednesday
their subsequent tests were
negative.
“If all you’re concerned
about is health and safety, it’s
pretty easy,” he added. “The
feedback I’ve gotten from guys
I’ve talked to, they feel great
(about NU’s protocols).”
Northwestern plans to test
athletes “at least” twice per
week, which meets the Big
Ten testing standard.
Fitzgerald is reminding
players to be cognizant of their
actions away from workouts.
He joked about frequently
backing away from parents at
his son’s travel baseball games
and said he reminds players to
wear masks and stay socially
distanced, especially as more
students return to campus.
“I’m really proud of our
guys with the choices they’re
making,” he said. “It’s not the

ing. It’s the other 20 hours. I
JASON FRANSON/AP think that’s the challenge for
every college football player.”
The pandemic will deter-
mine the course of college
football this season, he said.
“COVID is going to be the
difference,” Fitzgerald said.
“There’s going to be certain
teams that stay healthy.
There’s going to be certain
teams that make great choices
socially. There’s going to be
certain team that puts the
work in when no one is
looking.”

ILLINOIS FOOTBALL
Every day will be a test
Illinois to check players
daily for COVID-19
By Shannon Ryan
Illinois offensive tackle Alex Pal-
czewski wore a mask and couldn’t
hug his teammates, but he smiled as
he talked about returning to the
practice field Thursday after limited
interaction for months amid
COVID-19 restrictions.
“We have to sacrifice a few
months,” said Palczewski, a senior
from Mount Prospect whose mom is
an intensive care unit nurse. “If at the
end of the season, we’re Big Ten
champs, it’s all worth it.”
Illini players, coach Lovie Smith
and athletic director Josh Whitman
stressed during video conferences
with reporters the importance of
reducing the spread of the co-
ronavirus in hopes of completing a
season as uncertainty swirls around
the nation about the possibility of
kicking off this fall.
Illinois athletes will be required to
take daily tests, with at least two PCR
tests per week required by Big Ten
protocol and saliva tests adminis-
tered through the university. Cur-
rently, saliva tests are available only
on weekdays, but the university
expects those to be available soon on
weekends too.
The amount of testing at Illinois
exceeds what most programs have
announced.
“Everyone for the most part is
doing a good job, taking care of their
business,” said linebacker Jake
Hansen, a Florida native. “I think I’m
more safe here than at home. I’m not
around another group of people who
will be tested every day.”
Athletes in various conferences,
notably the Big Ten and Pac-12, have

publicly demanded increased testing
and third-party oversight. Whitman
said he wasn’t aware of any Illinois
athletes who were part of the College
Athlete Unity group of more than
1,000 Big Ten athletes who penned a
letter of demands.
Illinois announced last week 14%
of its 164 athletes on campus had
tested positive for COVID-19 since
returning in June, including 18 foot-
ball players. Twelve athletes, whose
sports weren’t identified, tested pos-
itive upon returning to campus and
were quarantined before coming into
contact with others, Whitman said.
Six percent of athletes contracted
the virus after returning to campus
through “community spread,” Whit-
man said, noting they did not identify
a point of spread through workouts at
athletic facilities. Three athletes are
currently recovering from the virus,
but none has been hospitalized.
“We never felt like we were in a
surge,” Whitman said.
The finances of testing has become
an issue between universities with
more resources and smaller pro-
grams that lack the funds. Whitman
said the university will absorb the
costs of testing athletes.
Illinois will require every student
and faculty member meeting for
in-person classes on campus to take
two tests per week.
Six Big Ten football programs have
suspended workouts at some point
this summer after positive tests,
including Northwestern pausing this
week after one case. Illinois said it
was comfortable with its contact
tracing efforts and quarantine meth-
ods to continue practicing after
athletes tested positive.
The Illini are scheduled to kick off
the conference-only season Sept. 3
against Ohio State.

Alex DeBrincat drew a five-minute
major for boarding Ethan Bear in the
second period, but Edmonton’s Dar-
nell Nurse killed off two minutes of
his team’s power play by interfering
with Drake Caggiula.
The Hawks got lucky in the third
when Andreas Athanasiou hit the
post on an open shot on Crawford’s
left side.
Crawford came up big again in the
period when he gloved what looked
like a sure rebound goal by Zack
Kassian.
Crawford had 43 saves in the game,
including all eight shots he faced
during Oilers power plays.

back, remains the only Illinois player
to opt out of playing this season,
Smith said. Penn State linebacker
Micah Parsons and Purdue receiver
Rondale Moore, both top NFL pro-
spects, announced Thursday that
they won’t play and mentioned co-
ronavirus concerns as their reason.
The unknown lingers over the
season.
Thursday’s opening practice at
Illinois, after being limited to volun-
tary weightlifting and conditioning
workouts in small groups since June,
included the offense and defense on
separate fields. Smith said he’ll hold
most meetings virtually. He preached
wearing a mask, washing hands and
socially distancing.
Smith emphasized his optimistic
nature but said, “I don’t have my head
in the sand.”
“There’s no given college football
will be played,” he said. “Right now,
they’ve told us we can start practic-
ing. Until someone tells us different,
that’s what we’ll do.”
Whitman discussed several other
topics in his video conference with
reporters.
■ The athletic department projects
to lose $20 million this season and
possibly more if football games or the
entire season are canceled.
■ Whitman said he has taken an
additional 15% pay cut over 12
months. Other athletic administra-
tive leaders have taken 7% cuts over
12 months.
■ The athletic department did not fill
11 vacancies and eliminated 15 posi-
tions, including seven full-time em-
ployees, as a cost-saving measure.
■ Illinois has rescheduled its game
against Illinois State for the 2028
season opener. The Illini were sched-
uled to host the Redbirds this season
but were forced to cancel after the Big
Ten moved to a conference-only season.
ios,” Crawford said.
The Hawks got a power play with
two minutes remaining after the
Oilers were called for too many men
on the ice but opted to kill the clock.
The series victory was significant
not only because the Hawks pulled
off an unlikely upset as the No. 12
seed.
The win showed the team’s cham-
pionship window hasn’t shut just yet,
Toews said.
“There’s always going to be unwar-

“Our core group has always done a

BEARS POSITION PREVIEW
Offensive line
By Brad Biggs
As the Bears conduct an unusual training camp in Lake
Forest, the Tribune is taking a look at each position group.
Currently on roster: 14
Projected on final roster: 8
Roster locks: Charles Leno, James Daniels, Cody
Whitehair and Bobby Massie
Good bets: Germain Ifedi, Rashaad Coward
and Jason Spriggs
On the bubble: Alex Bars, Arlington Hambright
and Lachavious Simmons
Practice-squad candidates: Bars, Hambright,
Simmons and Badara Traore
Biggest offseason developments: The Bears hired
Juan Castillo, who worked together previously with coach
Matt Nagy in Philadelphia, to coach the offensive line and
replace Harry Hiestand.
What to like
The Bears have gotten solid play — not great — from the
majority of these players since the 2018 season. Matt Nagy
has expressed supreme confidence and faith in veteran
offensive line coach Juan Castillo to produce significantly
improved results with largely the same group the Bears put
on the field in 2019. Based on the team’s moves — or lack of
moves — it’s clear Nagy placed the majority of the blame
for the line’s inconsistencies a year ago on Harry Hiestand.
“I think we know it starts up front with those guys,” GM
Ryan Pace said two days after the disappointing end to last
season. “That’s something we’ve really got to look at. From
a personnel standpoint, we’re gonna look at it. From a
schematic standpoint, we’re gonna look at it. That was real
this year. That hurt us.”
Fast forward to the ramp-up period for training camp
and the personnel virtually is unchanged. Some of that was
contractually dictated as the Bears were not in position to
move on from Charles Leno or Bobby Massie, and without
a first-round draft pick, it’s not as if the club could add a
replacement that way. But if the organization was blaming
players for the line’s play, it has done little to create options
for Castillo as he readies to evaluate his new group when
full pads can go on beginning Aug. 18.
The belief is the interior of the line improved in 2019
when Cody Whitehair returned to center and James
Daniels moved back to left guard, where he played as a
rookie in 2018. They will remain in those spots and
Germain Ifedi, a former first-round draft pick in Seattle,
will compete with Rashaad Coward, who had 10 starts in
2019, at right guard.
Bears quarterbacks were sacked on 7.2% of pass plays
last season to rank 22nd in the league, but they were 11th in
2018 at 5.9%, so the tackles and line as a whole can hold up
well in drop-back situations. The running game was a
complete mess, though, so Castillo has a considerable task
to improve a unit that Football Outsiders ranked 29th.
Castillo has a deep background in Nagy’s offense having
spent the majority of his career in Philadelphia under
Andy Reid and then in Baltimore and Buffalo for John
Harbaugh and Sean McDermott — all members of the Reid
coaching tree like Nagy. With limited time to work with
players in full pads — and no preseason — the process is
further complicated.
“In every scheme, whether it’s the run game or the pass
pro game, what’s really important are rules,” Castillo said
of the first weeks of camp. “I’m trying to teach our players
the rules without looking at all the fronts. When you’re
able to break down and give the guys a rule then it doesn’t
matter what front is put in front of them then they’ll
understand where to go. And I think that’s the first job.”
Biggest question:
Who will start at right guard?
Germain Ifedi seems like the natural answer, but he’s
going to battle with Rashaad Coward for the role. Ifedi was
highly graded coming out of Texas A&M, but the Bears
signed him for the veteran salary benefit so he will earn
only $1.047 million this season. That takes economics out
of the decision.
Ifedi was a right tackle the last three seasons, a position
where he struggled with penalties at times. He played
guard as a rookie in Seattle and the Bears like his size —
he’s up to 335 pounds — and power on the inside.
Fresh face
The Bears liked Jason Spriggs in the predraft process in
2016 when he was coming out of Indiana. The Packers
drafted him at No. 48 overall in Round 2, one spot before
the Bears were on the clock. GM Ryan Pace traded back
seven spots and wound up with Cody Whitehair at No. 56.
Now, Spriggs is the leading candidate to become the
swing tackle after an injury-marred and inconsistent
four-year run in Green Bay. Spriggs made nine starts for
the Packers in three seasons, five in 2017, before missing all
of last year on injured reserve.
“We’re very fortunate in having a guy like Jason Spriggs
come here,” Juan Castillo said. “You say, ‘Well, what does a
second-round draft pick mean?’ What that means is he’s
got some God-given ability.”
You should know
It’s a huge season for both starting tackles.
Charles Leno, 28, has no remaining guaranteed money
remaining on his deal. He’s signed for 2021 at $9 million, a
bargain for a starting left tackle. If he plays well, he will
position himself for future earnings. If not, he’s facing the
prospect of looking for a job elsewhere.
Bobby Massie is guaranteed $6.9 million this season, so
he was going nowhere, but the 31-year-old is also playing
for his future after back and ankle injuries slowed him in
2019. He’s signed for $8 million next season and will have
to perform at a high level to have a chance for that payday.
Big number: 30
Penalties called on Bears offensive linemen last season, a
figure that needs to be reduced in 2020.
