Will Burns (4th) and Ald. Leslie Hairston (5th) faced the vehement criticism of their constituents, Dec. 8, at a joint town hall meeting held at Liberty Baptist Church, 4849 S. King Dr. WVON radio host Matt McGill moderated the evening’s discussion, which, at times, dissolved into chaos as frustrated community members lambasted their elected city officials for inadequately responding to the police shooting of Laquan McDonald, which occurred over a year ago. In addition to Burns and Hairston Ald. Willie B. Cochran (20th), Ald. Pat Dowell (3rd), Ald. Roderick Sawyer (6th), Ald. Greg Mitchell (7th), Ald. Michelle Harris (8th), Ald. Susan Sadlowski Garza (10th), Ald. Toni Foulkes (16th), Ald. Joe Moore (49th) and Ald. Howard Brookins Jr. (21st) were present at the meeting. Burns joined the panel of alderman about midway through the evening’s proceedings after Dowell paused the conversation to direct a comment toward the church’s second level balcony. “Burns, why don’t you come on down here,” Dowell said. Burns, who had been alone on the balcony, joined the other politicians shortly thereafter. On April 13, aldermen on the city’s finance committee were briefed by the city’s Corporation Counsel Steve Patton on the death of Laquan McDonald. Patton stood before the finance committee to argue for the approval of a $5 million settlement to McDonald’s mother. Patton said that attorneys for McDonald’s estate had expressed interest in trying to resolve the case without filing a lawsuit. This worked Noteworthy event in the city’s favor, argued Patton, because a settlement would “avoid long and costly litigation, including substantial attorney’s fees and other litigation costs.” In addition to citing costs, Patton outlined a second reason for why the settlement would prove wise. “The attorneys for [McDonald’s] estate will argue that Mr. McDonald did not pose any immediate threat of death or great bodily harm to [officer Van Dyke] and that instead McDonald, as I mentioned before, was walking away from the police when he was shot, and they will argue that the videotape supports their version of events‚“That’s why we think the settlement makes sense on the issue of liability.” During the meeting, Sawyer defended the city council’s unanimous decision to approve the settlement.

Harper Ct., Dec. 10. Spencer Bibbs Alds. Roderick Sawyer (10th) and Leslie Hairston (5th) speak with constituents before a town hall meeting on public safety at Liberty Baptist Church, 4849 S. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Drive, Tuesday, Dec. 8. Medical students from the University of Chicago and Rush University as well as Chicago area nurses and physicians staged a “die-in,” Dec. 10, at Daley Plaza, 50 W. Washington St., to protest the city’s police violence, which, demonstration organizers said, constitutes a public health crises. Medical students who participated in the demonstration came from Chicago chapters of the American Medical Student Association, Student National Medical Association, Students for a National Health Program, White Coats for Black Lives and the Latino Medical Student Association. In a written statement, University of Chicago medical student Scott Goldberg explained why health care professionals believe police violence should be linked to a public health crises. “Current [police] violence equates to a public health crisis because public health is a field that deals with epidemics,” Goldberg said. “The death of Laquan McDonald is not an isolated incident but part of a broader crisis of excessive police force against poor communities of color. This violence leads to significant morbidity and mortality, and as such as public health officials, we should be documenting injuries, “Current [police] violence equates to a public health crisis because public health is a field that deals with epidemics.” disability, and death that result from police violence and develop interventions that prevent this from happening further.” Goldberg said, “Like the spread of AIDS, tuberculosis, or other infectious diseases, police violence is something that needs to be stopped before it begins. Part of that involves [Mayor Rahm Emanuel] MORE INSIDE...

The demonstration took specific aim at Emanuel, citing his resignation as a prerequisite of justice and reform. “Our demonstrators are united in calling on Mayor Emanuel to resign,” Goldberg said. “His cover-up of the death of Laquan McDonald amounts to an illegal obstruction of justice. He is not above the law.” Goldberg said, “After the mayor steps down, we need to begin community discussions to reform the police department. As of now, the police department is a tool used to oppress poor communities of color.” [email protected] 2 Hyde Park Herald, December 16, 2015 RainbowPUSH welcomes DOJ By SAM RAPPAPORT Staff Writer It’s Official Wallace Goode, executive director of the Hyde Park chamber of Commerce (left) and other community members helped Dee Robinson, owner of Einstein Bros. Bagels (center with scissors) celebrate the opening of the bagel shop located at 5230 S. Harper Ct., Dec.10. Owen M. Lawson III Rev. Jesse Jackson led a press conference Monday, Dec. 7, at Rainbow PUSH headquarters, 930 E. 50th St., praising the move by the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) to launch an expansive investigation into the Chicago Police Department (CPD). U.S. Attorney General Loretta Lynch said on Monday that the DOJ’s investigation will look into the CPD’s use of deadly force as well as attempt to identify constitutional violations and patterns of abuse. Jackson said that he and representatives from Rainbow PUSH plan on meeting with DOJ officials to provide community input relevant to the investigation. Stressing the importance of the probe in addressing Chicago’s law enforcement woes, Jackson said, “The police chief was fired, but the culture remains the same.” Say It! Following Jackson’s remarks, Paul Strauss, Co-Director of Litigation for the Chicago Lawyers’ Committee for Civil Rights Under Law, stepped to the podium to single out Cook County State’s Attorney Anita Alvarez. Alvarez has recently come under fire for her delayed response in pressing charges against CPD officer Jason Van Dyke, who shot and killed Laquan McDonald in October 2014. Strauss said that Alvarez should recuse herself from the case brought against Van Dyke because she remains a person of interest in the DOJ’s investigation into the CPD. In addition, Strauss called for the immediate suspension of officers involved in furthering the erroneous narrative of McDonald’s death, which stated he had lunged at officers. This past Sunday, Mayor Rahm Emanuel announced the resignation of Scott Ando, head of Chicago’s Independent Police Review Author- ity (IPRA), the civilian body responsible for looking at allegations of police misconduct. Strauss commended this development. “We are pleased with the resignation of the head of IPRA,” Strauss said. Strauss also made known that the Chicago Lawyers’ Committee for Civil Rights Under Law will hit IPRA, CPD and the Mayor’s office with Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests for any and all communications regarding Laquan McDonald. Jackson ended the Dec. 7 press conference on a somewhat optimistic note. “I’m just delighted that young America has come alive here and around the world,” Jackson said. “We are not going to stop until there is a transformation of this police department.” [email protected] Send letters to: Editor, Hyde Park Herald 1435 E.

Chicago Urban League hosts forum on police reform By SAM RAPPAPORT Staff Writer Legal scholars and activists convened at the Chicago Urban League, 4510 S. Michigan, Wednesday, Dec. 9, to discuss the state of the Chicago Police Department (CPD) and possible means of reform. The discussion, titled “Truth and Justice for All: Advancing Police and Community Accountability,” consisted of seven panelists, including University of Chicago law professor Craig Futterman, Hyde Park Journalist Jamie Kalven and Trina Reynolds-Tyler, a local activist with the Black Youth Project 100. The crisis that Mayor Rahm Emanuel’s administration and the CPD currently find themselves in largely informed Wednesday evening’s discussion topics. Emanuel is facing criticism for his response, over the past year, to the fatal shooting of a Black teenager by a white Chicago police officer. Some are calling Emanuel’s handling of the case a cover-up. President and CEO of the Chicago Urban League Shari Runner opened up the discussion by pointing to the momentous occasion in Chicago history that is the present. “A light has been shone on the issues Chicago is facing and we can’t miss this opportunity,” Runner said. The feeling that the current period in Chicago politics presents a momentous opportunity for reform was a sentiment shared by many of Wednesday’s panelists. “This is the greatest opportunity, since I’ve been alive, for real change,” Futterman said. Yet,in spite of the optimism, a somberness shrouded the evening’s discussion. Many panelists asserted that a truly honest exploration of police corruption will prove to be painful. “A lot of people are talking about restoring trust between black communities and the police,” Futterman said. “Let’s be honest, there’s never been trust.” He continued, “We know what the issues have been for a long time, so why are we just acting now? Our failure to act stems from a lot more than just the failure to know about these issues. It’s about our failure to care about black people.” Kalven compared the present moment in Chicago to the final days of apartheid in South Africa. “This is similar to the truth and reconciliation moment in South Africa,” Kalven said.

He was 92. Orlikoff was born in New Jersey on July 23, 1923 to Samuel and Blanche Orlikoff. After high school he attended the University of Michigan where he graduated with a Bachelor of Arts degree. Orlikoff attended the University of Chicago (U. of C.) Law School on a G.I. Bill after serving as communications officer on a U. S. destroyer in World War II. While at the law school he met and married his fellow collegiate Jeanne. They purchased a townhome in the first group of town houses built in Hyde Park during the Urban Renewal of the 1950s. While in law school, Orlikoff led a movement to establish a legal aid clinic at the U. of C. and continued his efforts as a practicing lawyer. As chairman of the Chicago Bar Association’s Legal Aid Committee he saw his efforts come to fruition. The Mandel Legal Aid Clinic lists him as its first alumnus, although the clinic did not come into existence until five years after Orlikoff graduated. In the early years as a lawyer Orlikoff was active in politics, serving as political action chairman of the Independent Voters of Illinois. He represented the Sheriff of Cook County and the State Treasurer of Illinois when Joseph D. Lohman held those posts. After managing Lohman’s losing campaign for Governor of Illinois Orlikoff left politics to concentrate on his law practice. Orlikoff, a specialist in Anti-Trust law, represented motion picture theater owners in numerous anti-trust lawsuits against major theater chains and studios. Subsequently he represented community newspaper publishers and distributors when the nation’s major daily newspapers attempted to have congress pass legislation exempting combinations of daily newspaper from the Anti-Trust laws. Orlikoff served as counsel to the Hyde Park Herald for over 55 years. Live theater was among Orlikoff’s abid- ing interests. Commencing with a U. of C. group known as Tonight at 8:30, Orlikoff represented the group, pro bono, when it became Playwright’s Theater Club. He defended Playwrights against several lawsuits brought by the City of Chicago under a licensing ordinance, which effectively prevented live theater from being presented in off-Loop locations. Ultimately the licensing ordinance was revised and off-Loop theater became a vibrant part of Chicago’s cultural life. When Playwrights ceased to function Orlikoff continued to represent an outgrowth, improvisational group known as Compass Theater, which performed in Hyde Park and many other places. Some of the Compass players went on to form Second City. In the McCarthy era, when thousands of Americans were accused of being communists or communist sympathizer and became subject to aggressive government and private sector investigations, the Senate Subcommittee on Internal Affairs held hearings in Chicago and subpoenaed two city officials and the executive director of a Jewish Home for the Aged. Orlikoff represented the executive director, also a Hyde Parker. Orlikoff and his client appeared before the committee, where Orlikoff announced that the committee lacked the constitutional authority to question his client’s political beliefs and they walked out of the hearing room without submitting to the questions. On behalf of the subpoenaed witnesses Orlikoff and the attorneys for the city officials brought a lawsuit to declare the committee’s subpoenas invalid as an unconstitutional invasion of political beliefs. The late U. of C. Professor Harry Kalvin joined Orlikoff as co-counsel in the lawsuit. Seven years later the suit was settled. No action was ever taken against the subpoenaed witnesses. A life-long supporter of the cooperative movement, having worked his way to a University of Michigan B.A. by waiting tables at the Wolverine Co-op, Orlikoff served two terms as a director of the Hyde Park Co-op, for many years the neighborhood’s main grocery store. Representing, again pro bono, a group of long-time Co-op members who opposed the acquisition of the ill-fated 47th Street Co-op expansion, Orlikoff succeeded in obtaining an injunction setting aside a Co-op election held in violation of the Co-op’s charter. He and several members of the group won all the open positions in the subsequent election, but due to the staggered terms of the Co-op’s directors they did not achieve a majority of the Coop’s Board and could not halt the fatal acquisition of the 47th Street store, which led to the demise of the Co-op. Orlikoff’s wife Jeanne preceded him in death. Orlikoff is survived by three sons James (Anita), Michael and Daniel (Laura) and four grandchildren Rachel, David, Treyton and Carter. At Orlikoff’s request no memorial service or visitation service will be planned. 4 Hyde Park Herald, December 16, 2015 The truth versus the incumbent’s spin Jay Travis response to 12/9/15 letter from Rep. Mitchell letter, Hyde Park Herald. Mail: Letters to the Editor, Hyde Park Herald, 1435 E.

Le tt ers may be edited for s pa ce . To the Editor: I was born and raised in Hyde Park. I went to Lab school. I get angry when Cutler throws interceptions. But with the passage of HR 158, because of my Iranian heritage, I stand to lose the right to travel as freely as other Americans… all of a sudden I’m “less American” than other people. Because Iranian citizenship is passed down via the father, most of us in the Iranian diaspora are technically dual nationals—even if we have never even travelled to Iran. I am as Chicagoan and American as it gets, accent and all. I plea that Dick Durbin and Mark Kirk do not vote for this bill and make me a second-class citizen. I’d like to think that here in Illinois we don’t take pages out of the Donald Trump playbook. Thank you, Cyrus Dowlatshahi Good governance is built on the truth. Facts empower people — and the families of the 26th district deserve elected representation that is honest. So I’d like to provide the facts, along with sources, for Herald readers about Rep Mitchell’s record, a record he seems instead determined to spin and shun. Fact: Rep. Christian Mitchell worked for a lobbying firm that did business with the payday lending industry. Mitchell’s LinkedIn page lists his work for Conlon Strategies, from November 2011 until July 2014 — a year and a half after he became state representative. The company is registered as a lobbyist of Illinois agencies that include the Illinois Commerce Commission, the Departments of Commerce, Corrections, Human Services and Insurance — and General Assembly members! Conlon’s clients have included the Community Financial Services Association, the national trade association for payday lenders, which paid Conlon at least $150,000 between 2008 and 2009. When Mitchell worked for Conlon in 2012, 2013 and 2014, the company’s clients included the Retail Energy Supply Association, whose members include AEP Energy, which forked out $50,000 to bankroll last year’s annual meeting of the right-wing bill mill ALEC — and whose corporate parent just slashed weatherization assistance for poor people in Ohio by half. Illinois officials are currently investigating another prominent Illinois Conlon client — Integrys (2012, 2013), the parent com- pany of People’s Gas — for hiding huge cost overruns in its pipeline project to grease state approval for its merger with another energy company. Those cost overruns could cost the average Chicago customer $7,700 over the next 20 years, according to the Chicago Tribune, while Integrys executives pocketed more than $30 million from the merger. Mitchell currently lists himself as a as a “Senior Strategist” with The Strategy Group, whose clients have included Chicago mayors Richard M. Daley and Rahm Emanuel — and IEC, the Illinois Environmental Council. Mitchell touts his Special Column support from IEC, which initially backed Illinois’ fracking law — but which has also said “the safest and best solution to this issue is a moratorium on fracking.” Fact: Rep. Mitchell could have — but didn’t — sign on as a cosponsor of HB 3086, which called for a moratorium on fracking. Instead, he voted for SB 1715, the controversial fossil fuel industry-driven fracking bill that deeply divided Illinois environmental groups. That legislation required the State’s powerful Joint Committee for Administrative Rules to issue regulations for fracking. JCAR predictably buried the devil in the details and issued rules so toothless that by September of 2014 two of the most prominent environmental groups that originally backed SB 1715 (in direct opposition to their sister groups in California) — the Natural Resources Defense Council and the Sierra Club — abandoned their support and instead joined the demand for a moratorium advocated by the very grassroots groups they’d earlier opposed. Fact: Rep. Mitchell has accepted over $35,000 from the We Mean Business PAC, whose funders include both Governor Bruce Rauner and billionaire hedge fund boss Ken Griffin, a generous donor to both Rauner (more than $13 million) and Mayor Emanuel ( $425,000 from Griffin and over $100,000 from his wife, as well as $850,000 to the pro-Emanuel PAC Chicago Forward). Crains succinctly laid out the group’s agenda: “to bankroll candidates who are willing to cross labor unions and vote to reduce pension benefits and/or require workers to pay more for them.” Rep. Mitchell has accommodated that mission, voting four times to reduce the earned retirement income of seniors who rely on public pensions: the unconstitutional SB 1; HB 1154, to cap public pensions; 1165, to reduce cost-ofliving increases; and 1166, to increase retirement ages. There is no need to distort Rep. Mitchell’s record. When it comes to undercutting the earned retirement income of seniors, working for firms that profit from payday lenders and price-gouging energy giants, or smoothing the way for pro-industry fracking ‘regulations’, his record speaks for itself.

Jay Travis State legislators call for expanded DOJ investigation By SAM RAPPAPORT Staff Writer State Sen. Kwame Raoul (13th), state Rep. Christian Mitchell (26th) and the remaining 30 members of the Illinois Legislative Black Caucus (ILBC) have called on the U.S. Department of Justice to expand the scope of its patterns and practices investigation of the Chicago Police Department (CPD). The ILBC penned a letter to Attorney General Loretta Lynch, Dec. 8, expressing support for the DOJ’s investigation, but also pressing the federal agency to examine further into the entire system through which al- legations of police misconduct are handled in Chicago. Such a probe would expand beyond the CPD to include the Independent Police Review Authority (IPRA), the civilian body responsible for evaluating alleged police misconduct, and the Cook County State’s Attorney’s office. Both IRPA and Cook County State’s Attorney Anita Alvarez have experienced a maelstrom of criticisms as of late. As facts surrounding the police killing of Laquan McDonald continue to surface, more and more Chicagoans are finding fault with Alvarez and IPRA’s handling of the case.

Lawson III At a Dec. 8 joint town hall meeting, Ald. Leslie Hairston (5th) denounced IPRA’s ability to hold police officers accountable. “It’s time for IPRA to go,” Hairston said. In a written statement, Sen. Raoul argued for an expanded DOJ investigation geared toward uncovering a ‘culture’ that encourages misconduct and abuse. “As a former Cook County Assistant State’s Attorney, I am proud to join in the Black Caucus’ call for an expanded investigation,” Raoul said. “I know that there are many hardworking assistant state’s attorneys and police officers serving and protecting the people of Chicago. But there are also strong indications that a culture exists in which some are pressured to tolerate or even cover up excessive force and discriminatory policing.” Raoul continued by asserting that we not waste the present opportunity for reform in Chicago. “Now that Attorney General Lynch has sent the Department of Justice to Chicago,” he said, “it is important that we not squander this opportunity to uncover every practice, every policy and every system that enables chronic miscarriages of justice.” [email protected] December 16, 2015, Hyde Park Herald 5 Jane Averill remembered as a passionate teacher By ALLISON MATYUS Staff Writer Hyde Park lost a long-time community member and passionate teacher Monday Dec. 7. Jane Averill passed away after her battle with cancer. Averill was a pre-K teacher at Ray Elementary School, 5631 S. Kimbark Ave., from 2001 until April of this year when she retired. Inside her classroom, room 413, she is remembered as a caring teacher. “I was really impressed with her use of singing to communicate with the kids,” said Sasha Austin Schmidt, a Latin teacher at Ray. “She would sing to the students as they walked outside to go to recess and as she brought them back in from the playground.” Even before she became a teacher at Ray, she was a Ray mother, and was passionate about early child education and development, among other causes. Above all, Averill was an advocate for children. “She was very active in supporting public education at a time when public education is under attack,” said Tom Panelas, her husband. “She worked very hard to prevent Canter School from being closed.” Averill was also a strong supporter of the Chicago Teacher’s Union and worked hard to prevent Chicago Public Schools (CPS) from closing. She supported the teacher’s strike of 2012, and in true “Jane form,” came up with her own strike songs. Schmidt said that her dedication and support to her students was inspiring. “She was very impassioned about preschool education and whenever there would be a meeting about the upper grades, she would always bring up pre-K and advocate for her students,” Schmidt said. On Dec. 10, Ray Elementary dedicated an art gallery space in Averill’s honor, who believed art was a critical part of children’s learning. A once empty, unused space will now hold the artwork of students in a cozy corner on the second floor. At the dedication, people were lined up and down the hallway and spilled out the door-a true sign of how much Averill was appreciated in the school and in the community. Almost every teacher, of all grades and specialties, had a story to tell in which Averill helped them. “She helped my Latin program a lot when I first came on board. She was very supportive and ran a fundraiser for the program,” Schmidt said. “She was a mentor to lots of people in this building,” said Lori Dana, an art teacher at Ray. “She was always so generous with her time and resources.” Outside of her classroom, she was a loving parent to her two children, Michael and Alli. “In whichever role she found herself at any given time, she was always able to empathize and understand the other, and understanding how parents think and feel made her a better teacher,” Panelas said. In her over 11 years of teaching in Hyde Park, she was able to meet many residents and see her students grow up. “You couldn’t walk a block in the neighborhood with her without people stopping her two or three times,” Panelas laughed. “She seemed to know everybody in the neighborhood because she had so many generations of kids and parents who were grateful for what she had done.” [email protected] Hyde Park resident and long-time educator Jane Averill (center) died of cancer, Monday, Dec 7.

Blackstone Ave. “Winning on their home floor would not be an easy task. So I thought it was important that we matched their energy early on [in the quarter]. We knew it would be a tough match.” In the first half, both teams would exchange baskets on numerous occasions, as they’d combine for two lead changes with 18 total fouls, while shooting a respectable 40 percent from the field. Although both teams would grind it out on the floor, the Thunderbirds offense would soar and overcome a 10point Broncos deficit to end the half with a 32-29 lead. “We came out slow and sluggish in our loss in Detroit,” said Zion Morgan, point guard of Kenwood Academy. “So we wanted to change that and come out and give a better effort against our conference rivals.” Thanks to the heroics of Morgan, they did just that. Morgan scored a game-high of 32 points (19 in the second half), dished-out 7 assist, 3 steals, 2 blocks on 11 of 18 shooting. This included draining two clutch free throws down the stretch to end the game (with 31.1 seconds left to play in regulation). Final Score: Kenwood 61, Hyde Park 55 In one of the greatest individual basketball performances in Kenwood’s history, Morgan would account for 32 of his teams 61 points. With the win, the Broncos improved to 3-1 on the season. Hyde Park Herald Player of The Game: Zion Morgan Game high: 32 points [email protected] Project 120 update How consumers shop Hyde Park By ALLISON MATYUS Staff Writer Louise McCurry, Jackson Park advisory council (JPAC) president, poses with Raymond Johnson, the JPAC Olmstead award winner, at the Chicago Cultural Center, 73 E. Washington St., Thursday, Dec. 10. Marc Monaghan By SAM RAPPAPORT Staff Writer The Chicago Cultural Center, 50 E. Washington St., hosted a lecture on Thursday afternoon, Dec. 10, that focused on the history and future of the city’s South Side parks. The discussion, titled “The South Parks: An American Story,” was led by Bob Karr, president of Project 120, the nonprofit organization spearheading a variety of revitalizing initiatives across Jackson Park, Washington Park and the Midway Plaisance. Karr said that although Washington Park and Jackson Park have been pitted against each other recently while Chicago awaits the placement of the Obama Presidential Center, Frederick Law Olmsted originally designed the plots of land to be a part of a single, comprehensive park system. “These parks were designed as one system, for one Chicago,” Karr said. Though Karr did not delve too far into current projects, he did say that Yoko Ono’s Sky Landing, which is being designed on Jackson Park’s Wooden Island, would be open to the public in June 2016. Karr also mentioned that construction would soon begin on Jackson Park’s new Phoenix Pavilion and Music Court. Artistic renderings and in-depth explanations of these projects can be found on Project 120’s website, project120chicago.org. At the outset of Thursday’s lecture, president of the Jackson Park Advisory Council (JPAC) Louise McCurry took the stage to present Karr with JPAC’s Daniel Burnham award. McCurry joked that Karr “walks on water,” as she spoke about the positive impact of Karr’s work with Project 120. “For four years Bob has worked hand in hand with JPAC to explore positive changes for Wooded Island and raise money for the rehab process,” McCurry said. “He’s also been able to bring in the foremost Olmsted landscape architect in the country, Patricia O’Donell, to work with Project 120.” [email protected] Hyde Park has a unique shopping scene with small-owned businesses and strategically revolving developments that make up its retail culture. The Hyde Park Chamber of Commerce hosted an education seminar Dec. 10 to help local business owners understand the Hyde Park shopping experience. During the seminar, which took place at the Chicago Innovation Exchange, 1452 E. 53rd St., Terri Albert CEO of Fresh Set of Eyes, LLC and former professor at The University of Chicago Booth School of Business, shared the findings of two surveys conducted by Booth School students, who studied the habits and needs of Hyde Park shoppers. The students used customer email lists of two Hyde Park businesses to question customers about their overall shopping experience in Hyde Park. The customers were both residents and non-residents of the neighborhood. The first survey was conducted in 2012-2013 and the second survey was conducted last month. The first part of the survey focused on retail image such as merchandise style, selection, quality, service and ease of shopping in the stores. Albert explained why the merchandise style selection saw a positive shift and pricing saw a slight negative shift between the first and second study. “The positive shifts may have been the reason behind the perceived higher prices,” Albert said. “Non-residents were less likely to note high prices.” Albert said that overall, the retail image represented a good 20-30 percent shift in moving from negative to positive aspects. The second part of the survey focused on shopper motivation, which included convenience, loyalty and familiarity. Based on the results, shopper motivations have increased over time, with familiarity growing in shopping. It was noted that resident motivations for shopping in Hyde Park were stronger than non-residents. As far as improvements, categories in- cluded parking, signage in stores and discounts or group deals. Not surprisingly, there was no change in parking, and it still remained a big problem for shoppers in both sets of studies. However, residents in Hyde Park were more frustrated with the parking situation than non-residents. Wallace Goode, the executive director of the Chamber of Commerce, said, “We are always addressing parking and thinking of strategies, but ultimately, it’s beyond the retailers’ control.” Some businesses have opted for easier parking options, such as The Promontory, 5311 S. Lake Park Ave., which gives parking discounts and A10, 1462 E. 53rd St., which has a valet parking option for their customers. Albert mentioned that they couldn’t talk about retail in Hyde Park without talking about the university’s role in the retail market.

They couldn’t even poke holes in it.” On the 18th day of the hunger strike, Dyett High School, 555 E. 51st St., was announced to reopen next school year as an open enrollment, arts-focused school. For Brown and his fellow hunger strikers, there were-and still are-mixed feelings about the decision. “We did win the reopening of the neighborhood school; we understand that, that is a great accomplishment,” Brown said. “I’m in favor of a highly competitive arts and sports program, but in conjunction with a focus on green technology.” The hunger strikers originally went on the strike due to the unfair RFP process that was taking place behind closed doors at CPS. However, they now see the hunger strike as part of a larger education justice movement that is taking place around the city of Chicago, and the nation. “We think about the hunger strike as a moment in the long-term struggle,” said Gutstein. For the hunger strikers and supporters of the coalition, the fight for Dyett has been a long time coming for the community that has been boiling up even before the school’s closing in 2013. “I was ready to do a hunger strike two and a half years ago,” Brown said. “I learned as an organizer that we have to let people build up their own rage.” Gutstein said, “This was not about winning Dyett, not about one community, this is a long process in a bigger struggle.” [email protected] Wednesday, December 9 ALDERMEN from page 1 “We felt that it was in the interest of tax payers,” Sawyer said. “The decision to settle was a sound fiscal decision.

Goode said that having shoppers come into Hyde Park is a benefit for the community. “It is the chamber’s mission to be advocates for our businesses, but it’s also to put feet on the street,” Goode said.

Owen M. Lawson III December 16, 2015, Hyde Park Herald 9 Emerging composers first opera: flawed yet glorious By M.L. RANTALA Classical Music Critic What: “Bel Canto” by Jimmy Lopez Where: Lyric Opera, 20 N. Wacker Dr. When: Through Jan. 17, 2016 Phone: 312-332-2244 C ritics of opera sometimes laugh off the art form as irrelevant. Lyric Opera of Chicago’s first main stage world premiere in over a decade is anything but that. “Bel Canto” is the story of terrorists violently storming a party bursting with one-percenters, taking them hostage, and then gunning down one of them. Yet when the curtain fell on the world premiere, what was left swirling in your head was not anxiety for the state of the world but the glorious music. The astonishing score of composer Jimmy Lopez stole the show and revealed him as a composer with vision, imagination, and immense dramatic skills. “Bel Canto,” based on the novel of the same name by Ann Patchett, is the story of opera diva Roxane Coss who sings at a party at the home of the vice president of Peru to honor Japanese magnate Katsumi Hosokawa. Armed terrorists take everyone hostage. A strange standoff between terrorists and government goes on months. The hostages establish friendships, and Roxane and Hosokawa fall in love, even though they speak no common language. The lines between captor and captive blur, and a young female terrorist and the interpreter Gen also fall in love. Renée Fleming, Lyric Opera’s first-ever creative consultant, selected Patchett’s novel as the source for this opera and had 80-some composers under consideration before she selected Lopez. He takes a story of love emerging from chaos and violence and invests it with music encompassing a densely packed phantasmagoria of emotions. His orchestral writing is grand, bold, and evocative. The insistent, ominous overture is gripping, realized with vibrant color and urgent rhythms by the Lyric Opera Orchestra led by Sir Andrew Davis. Lopez has a talent for intriguingly dense orchestration that slowly reveals beautiful tensions. The vocal writing is lovely, although not as uniformly memorable or effective as his remarkable orchestral voice. I heard quiet influences of the later, dark Sibelius in “You Were Destined to Come Here,” Roxane’s first act aria sung with potent richness by Danielle di Niese. Carmen’s prayer to Santa Rosa gleams in its simplicity and is rendered with aching authenticity by mezzo-soprano J’nai Bridges in the one of the opera’s most touching moments. “The voice of the trees,” establishes the ability of Lopez to create another world, weird and alien yet entirely enticing, with counter-tenor Anthony A scene from “Bel Canto” by Jimmy Lopez now playing at Lyric Opera, 20 N. Wacker Dr., through Jan. 17 2016. Roth Costanzo singing with shimmering beauty. Lopez quotes a couple of beloved arias briefly (one from Handel’s “Rinaldo,” and another from Donizetti’s “L’elisir d’amore”) and then recasts the music in his own form, ingeniously taking us from the familiar to the new. The libretto, too, nods to other operas. In a story with precious few comic moments, when terrorist Carmen (who has been disguised as a boy) is revealed to be a young woman, the famous line from Wagner’s “Siegfried” is deliciously swiped: “Das is kein mann.” Pulitzer Prize winner Nilo Cruz does a worthy job of reducing the novel to a libretto. He’s jettisoned Patchett’s freakish ending and there’s none of the novel’s annoying, faux coyness in conspicuously failing to name the country where the story takes place. Cruz imbues the story with a poetic quality that lends itself to music. Yet the opera’s biggest failing is in the storytelling. What needed to be brought to the front is the odd and fascinating fact that while the terrorists held the party guests hostage, the terrorists — surrounded by police and military outside the grand house — were themselves held hostage and had nowhere to go or maneuver. Instead, the story wants us to believe that the power of Roxane’s voice melts the terrorists; that music is enough to quell violence. There are other weaknesses. While the first act flows well, the second act is written more in the manner of a numbers opera that clunks awkwardly from one aria to the next. The single comic song, given to the Russian diplomat who declares that his understanding of Impressionist painters makes him qualified to love Roxane, is inexplicably broken into two parts, bookending a serious love song to Roxane by Hosokowa. The singers in this opera are talented and make their commitment clear. Danielle de Niese is solid as Roxane, even if her acting is by the numbers and her singing tends to be rather cool. Jeongcheol Cha creates a dignified and reserved Hosakowa whose love for Roxane is palpable. As his interpreter Gen, Andrew Stenson has a clear and persuasive tenor. Rafael Davila is a menacing General Alfredo. Jacques Imbrailo knows how to make the most of melismas Lopez wrote for the Red Cross rep. The set by David Korins is lavish and detailed. Projection designer Greg Emetaz works magic more than once, with his greatest achievement to make the mansion disap- pear and to place us in the verdant, exotic environs of a rainforest. Constance Hoffman’s costumes are fitting if forgettable. “Bel Canto” is a flawed opera, yet an engaging one containing glorious music.

Lincoln Ave. When: through Jan. 10 Tickets: $42.50 - $52.50 Phone: 773-404-7336 By ANNE SPISELMAN Theater Critic N oël Coward’s “Fallen Angels” comes across as a witty farce-satirizing holdover Victorian sexual mores, but it’s really something more. First produced in 1925, when the author was in his mid-twenties, the play explores the complicated dynamics of desire and anticipation and how they affect the relationship between two women who supposedly are best friends. Those women are Julia Sterroll (Emjoy Gavino) and Jane Banbury (Eliza Stoughton), who get together at Julia’s house while their husbands, Fred Sterroll (Fred Geyer) and Willy Banbury (Jesse Dornan), go off on a golfing trip. The husbands are conventional upper middle-class twits who take their wives’ fidelity and purity for granted, and the first sign of potential trouble is Julia’s attempt to explain to Fred before he leaves that, although they love each other, they are no longer in love. What has stirred up Julia’s emotions is the rumor that Maurice Duclos (Joshua Moaney), the Frenchman with whom both women had affairs in Italy at separate times a number of years earlier, is in England. When Jane arrives and announces that she’s received a note from Maurice asking to see her, and a similar note for Julia is delivered shortly thereafter, their hearts are set a flutter. Fondly recalling past passions they’re eager to rekindle, they also feel somewhat guilty and are fearful of betraying their husbands, even if these Brits are no match for the French when it comes to romance. The catch is that Julia and Jane’s camaraderie over their similar experiences with Maurice soon turns to rivalry for his anticipated attention and affection. They spend most of the evening excitedly waiting for him to come, jumping at each ring of the telephone and buzz of the doorbell. As they get increasingly drunk during and after dinner, their jealousy erupts into heated arguments that eventually lead to blows. The only one around to try to diffuse the situation is the new maid, Saunders (Annabel Armour) who, thanks to previous employers, knows more about everything from golf to music than anyone else, though she’s pretty inept and easily distracted as a servant. Structuring a play so that a key muchtalked-about character arrives very late in the game—or not at all—is risky, and for “Fallen Angels” to work, the tone has to be as light and bubbly as the Champagne the women are drinking, at least at the beginning and for the finale, with its amusing twist. That doesn’t quite happen in Remy Bumppo’s production, despite director Shannon Cochran’s clever touches, including the song-and-dance bits to open each act. The basic problem is that Gavino’s Julia and Stoughton’s Jane reach fevered pitches too early and don’t modulate their performances enough. This exacerbates the repetitiveness of their fights and lessens the verbal and physical humor, as the slapstick eventually becomes old hat. They also sound very much like each other and come across as very actorly rather than bearing any resemblance to real people. The husbands are remarkably alike, too, but they are supposed to be caricatures, so it doesn’t really matter. Naturally, they come home—having had an argument on their trip—while their wives are in the most woebegone state, leading to some frantic antics. Also naturally, Maurice shows up at the most inopportune time but manages to charm everyone, including the initially furious but easily duped Fred and Willy. The meeting is rather anticlimactic, but Moaney carries it off well; he’s appropriately suave with a milliondollar smile and phony-sounding French accent. Funniest of all, though, is Armour’s Saunders, who walks a fine line between being very annoying and oddly endearing. Her comic timing is mostly impeccable, and there is one moment involving only a gesture that is simply priceless. Though Jeff Bauer’s scenic design suggests the 1920s, I suspect it also suffers from budget limitations, and I found myself distracted by little details, such as the lack of saucers with the morning coffee cups. Janice Pytel’s costumes reflect similar constraints, though a great deal of effort obviously went into them, especially the women’s evening gowns. “Fallen Angels” is rarely staged, and I’d recommend seeing Remy Bumppo’s production, which is fun even if it isn’t definitive. “The Heir Apparent” and “A Q Brothers’ Christmas Carol” RECOMMENDED “The Heir Apparent” Where: Chicago Shakespeare Theater, Courtyard Theater, Navy Pier When: through Jan. 17, 2016 Tickets: $48-$88 Phone: 312-595-5600 “A Q Brothers’ Christmas Carol” Where: Upstairs at Chicago Shakespeare, Navy Pier When: through Jan. 3, 2016 Tickets:$30-$48 Phone: 312-595-5600 By ANNE SPISELMAN Theater Critic T he two plays at Chicago Shakespeare Theater this holiday season are seemingly different but surprisingly similar takes on the same theme: You can’t take it The Ghost of Christmas Present (left of center) shows Ebenezer Scrooge (right of center) the errors of his ways in "A Q Brothers’ Christmas Carol." Michael Brosilow with you. Both “The Heir Apparent,” David Ives’ adaptation of Jean-François Regnard’s 1708 farce “Le Légataire universel” in the Courtyard Theater, and the reprise of “A Q Brothers’ Christmas Carol,” the hip-hop riff on the Dickens tale Upstairs at Chicago Shakespeare, re-imagine classics for contemporary audiences. Both focus on miserly old men— intensely attached to their money—who undergo a transformation. And both are feasts of language laden with complicated twists, peppered with topical references—and written in rhyme, no less. The biggest difference, besides the story lines, is that, while “A Q Brothers’ Christmas Carol” transports the action to today’s Chicago, “The Heir Apparent” keeps the early 18th-century setting and social mores. Ives, perhaps best known for “Venus in Fur,” has done what he calls “translapation” before, including here in 2013 with “The School for Lies,” his version of Molière’s “The Misanthrope” at Chicago Shakespeare, and Corneille’s “The Liar” at Writers Theatre. Regnard arguably wasn’t as good a playwright as these better-known Frenchmen, and it shows in formulaic commedia dell’arte plot and fairly one-dimensional characters, as well as the low-brow humor that relies heavily on scatological and gastrointestinal references. Rich, old Geronte (Paxton Whitehead) is suffering from a variety of bowel-related ailments, and his witty maid, Lisette (Jessie Fisher), claims only her ministrations are keeping him alive. Actually, she, his nephew Eraste (Nate Burger), and the wily valet Crispin (Cliff Saunders), who’s also Lisette’s beau, wouldn’t mind if the doddering old man died—but not before he writes a will leaving his million francs to Eraste. Deeply in debt, the boy wants the money so he can marry his beloved Isabelle (Emily Peterson), and in fact, the dragon-ish Madame Argante (Linda Kimbrough) will only let the marriage take place if he inherits. They’re waiting for the lawyer Scruple when Geronte, despite looking like he’s at death’s door, announces his intention to marry Isabelle himself at 3 o’clock that very day, even if he does insist on calling her Georgina. Madame Argante doesn’t mind, as long as her daughter goes to the man with the million. Geronte also says he’s going to leave generous chunks of his fortune to two relatives he just learned of, a nephew in New York and a pig-farmer niece. Then he retreats to his potty. Faced with impending disaster and a deadline, Eraste, Lisette, Isabelle, and most of all, Crispin, spring into action. Most of their schemes involve impersonation—of the New York nephew, who arrives in a coonskin cap with a Texas drawl; of three not-so-little Miss Piggys with baskets of pork products; of Geronte himself, after he kicks off before signing the will. When the tiny Scruple (Patrick Kerr on his knees under his black robe) finally gets there, they drive him to distraction with slights about his height. Besides liberally sprinkling the dialogue with outlandish rhymes (“f**k you” with “nephew”) and anachronisms (Madame Argante calls herself a “soccer mom”), Ives has his characters break down the fourth wall by addressing us directly and calling for audience participation. John Rando, who directed the show at New York’s Classic Stage Company last year, paces the proceedings with aplomb, though they would become tiresome were it not for the lively language. The actors are all very good—and all greedy—but the evening belongs to Whitehead’s Geronte, who is reprising the role he played in New York. An old-school master of comic timing, he’s funny in the first act and simply splendid in the second. As Eraste, Burger is likable enough to offset his avarice, while Fisher and Saunders epitomize resourceful servants, and Kerr’s Scruple is a hoot. Kudos to Kevin Depinet’s set of a stylish yet dilapidated 18th-century salon with Art Nouveau-looking French doors and an oversize grandfather clock that makes farting noises, not to mention Geronte’s chained-down money chest whose key is attached to him by a pull-out chord. Christine Binder’s flamboyant lighting and Richard Woodbury’s sound design add just the right touches, and David Woolard’s costumes and Melissa Veal’s wigs and makeup are perfectly apropos. Meanwhile, “A Q Brothers’ Christmas Carol” upstairs is just as much fun as I remember it being last year. If anything, the ending seems stronger, the tone angrier in parts, and the references even more timely. The brilliance of the creator/performers— GQ, JQ, Jackson Doran, and Postell Pringle play all the roles—is how completely and cleverly they transform the material, making it their own, while maintaining Dickens’ intentions. For example, the ghost of Jacob Marley (JQ) is doomed to be a Rastafarian because he hated reggae all his life, but the idea goes beyond the play on the name Marley. When Scrooge was a young man working in Fezzi’s wig shop, Marley convinced him to join forces with him and outsource wig production to Jamaica. A hilarious reggae number is one of the many songs that, besides everything else, offer a lesson in the history of hip-hop and the various styles, with the help of DJ Super Nova. With only four actors, the doubling is fast and furious, but my favorite character probably is JQ’s Lil’ Tim, who treats us to a litany of his horrible illnesses to gain our sympathy, even as he dances around on his crutch. Kind of a morbid fascination, but the Q Brothers put that and everything else at their disposal to creative use. 12 Hyde Park Herald, December 16, 2015 Special Advertising Supplement to the Hyde Park Herald – December 16, 2015 2 Last Minute Gift Guide, December 16, 2015 Hyde Park organizations seeking donations By ALLISON MATYUS Staff Writer Tis the season to give…and to give back.

Marc Monaghan M December 16, 2015, Last Minute Gift Guide 3 MSI’s Christmas Trees Around the world SI TREE FACTS: Below are some fun facts about the traditions you will see in the Museum’s Christmas Around the World forest. To learn more about how the holidays are celebrated across the globe, download the Museum’s “Trees and Traditions” podcast at msichicago.org or listen to an audio tour to hear more about each individual tree at catw.msichicago.org. American tree is beautifully decorated with dream catcher ornaments, small toy dolls in traditional dress and a large feather centerpiece sitting atop. These different items pay tribute to the different tribes within America. • On the Puerto Rican tree, musical instrument ornaments such as guitars and maracas symbolize the musicians or Parrandas, which go door to door during the six weeks of Christmas celebrations. This is somewhat of a Puerto Rican version of Christmas caroling, and traditionally the musicians are invited into the home for refreshments before they go off to surprise another friend with their music. The poinsettias on the tree represent the flower that grows all over the island and blooms from Christmas to Easter. • The Danish tree features handmade ornaments that students learn how to make while in school. Two halves of a heart—one white, one red to represent Denmark’s colors on their flag— are woven together and create an envelope to hold candies and nuts. Cone-shaped ornaments, called kremmerhuset, also adorn the tree and contain traditional Danish spiced peppernut cookies inside. Tiny men and women, or Nisseman, made of red yarn, represent Santa’s helpers. • During the holiday season, Christmas markets or Christkindlesmarkts are found in most major German cities (the oldest and most famous is in Nuremburg) and boast traditional holiday delicacies, toys, crafts and clothing. Most markets open the first day of Advent and end at noon on Christmas Eve. • Ornaments made from white drinking straws and shaped to form windmills, dancers and crosses, adorn the tree of Lithuania. The drinking straws represent the Lithuanian tradition of ornaments made from real rye and wheat straw. • In Poland, hay is placed on the Christmas Eve table beneath the tablecloth to symbolize Christ’s birth in the manger. Hanging on the Polish tree are ornaments featuring customary intricate cutouts created using sheep shears, a craft that is native to the Kurpie region of Poland. • In Colombia, the holiday season begins with Immaculate Conception Day on December 8, and ends with Three Kings Day on January 6. On December 14, families begin to construct • The Museum’s Russian tree was created by a local family who wanted to honor their children who had been adopted from Russia. Now many more families who have adopted Russian children help decorate the tree. The ornaments include Russian nesting dolls, pinecones and dolls dressed in traditional Russian clothing. • The Austrian tree features the names of famous Austrian cities and notable figures, including composers, reflecting Austria’s rich musical history. Austria is the home of one of the most beloved Christmas carols, Silent Night. In 1818 in a small Austrian village, the song was composed for guitar just after the priest and church organist discovered suddenly the church organ was broken on Christmas Eve. The simple melody was written just in time for the midnight mass. • China’s tree is decorated with handmade origami ornaments as well as colorful Chinese characters representing happiness, good will and prosperity. Christians comprise approximately one percent of China’s population, and those who celebrate decorate their homes with illuminated paper lanterns, which are represented on the Museum’s tree. • The Belizean tree is adorned with doves, symbolizing peace. The country’s maritime culture is symbolized through ship ornaments, and dolls on the tree are dressed in native Belizean clothing. • As part of the Song and Dance Festival, which takes place in Estonian capital Tallinn once every five years and is the largest event featuring national costumes. To represent this proud tradition, small dolls in costumes decorate the tree. The tree’s garlands are belts that are a key part of the national costume and are specific to each region. • The wren’s nesting on the Museum’s Welsh tree represents the traditional hunting of the wren, which occurred on December 26, the Feast of St. Stephen. Holly and mistletoe bring good luck and protection to the home, while daffodils are the national flower. The triple harp is the national instrument of Wales, 1000 E. 47th Street and the musical notes celebrate Wales’ rich musical history. • The majority of Japan’s population is [email protected] dhist so Christmas is not commonly celebrated Christmas throughout the country.

Small embroidered pillow ornaments feature floral motifs consistent with embroidery stitched onto traditional Hungarian dress. • The Scottish tree features a number of tartan-patterned figures and images representative of Scotland’s culture. Scottish terriers, dancers and sheep ornaments all adorn the tree, as well as tributes to golf, the sport which originated in Scotland. Scottish Celtic symbols also are featured. • England’s tree reflects the country’s pop culture, especially within the entertainment industry. In addition to royal crowns, red roses and Union Jacks, ornaments and décor with images of Paddington Bear, The Beatles and Dr. Who sit upon the tree. Christmas Around the World and Holidays of Light 2015 are presented by Pepsi. Trees and Traditions Each Christmas Around the World tree offers insight into the diverse customs that exist during the holiday season or the culture of a particular country. The Estonian tree celebrates the Song and Dance Festival, which takes place in capital Tallinn once every five years and is the largest event featuring Estonian national costumes. To represent this proud tradition, small dolls in costumes decorate the tree. The tree’s garlands are belts that are a key part of the national costume and are specific to each region. Small, woven snowflakes and festive handmade children’s mittens represent “hand arts,” a longstanding custom for women in Estonia. Snowflakes and icicles adorn the tree in honor of the cold, northern European climate. The Puerto Rican tree is decorated with a number of musical instruments of all types. Guitars, maracas, tambourines and g?iros (a wooden fish-shaped percussion instrument) all adorn the tree to symbolize the Parrandas, musicians who go door to door during the six weeks of Christmas celebrations. In addition, Poinsettias, which are indigenous to Central America, are featured across the branches. Three golden wise men statues are situated beneath the tree, paying homage to the Three Kings—Melchor, Gaspar and Baltazar—who are separately celebrated on January 6 in Puerto Rico. The ornaments on the Japanese tree are Kami-Ningyo (paper dolls in traditional Japanese kimonos made out of Chiyogami, printed Japanese handmade papers), paper Kabuto (warrior’s helmet), and umbrellas made out of papers and toothpicks—a wellknown craft in Japan. Holidays of Light, now in its 21st year, is a multicultural display of holidays that celebrate light or enlightenment. Each year, the display highlights the traditions of the Chinese New Year, Diwali (a Hindu and Sikh festival), Kwanzaa (celebrated by African Americans), Ramadan (celebrated by Muslims), Hanukkah (a Jewish holiday),Visakha Puja Day (a Buddhist holiday), and St. Lucia Day (a Swedish tradition).
