LOS
ANGELES
(AP)
--
His
overstuffed
recliner
is
tucked
in a
corner,
next
to a
table
with
a
telephone
and
an
address
book
open
to
names
written
in
pencil.
The
television
plays
a
loop
of a
Western
and
a
baseball
game.
All
that's
missing
from
the
cozy
scene
is
John
Wooden
himself.
UCLA
recreated
the
home
den
of
the
late
basketball
coach
in a
new
exhibit
that
opened
Wednesday
at
the
Athletics
Hall
of
Fame,
located
steps
away
from
Pauley
Pavilion,
where
Wooden
plied
his
trade
until
1975.
He
died
in
June
at
99.
In
the
months
that
followed,
his
children,
Nan
and
Jim,
sorted
through
numerous
requests
for
items
from
their
father's
life,
including
from
the
Smithsonian.
They
shipped
some
to
his
alma
mater,
Purdue,
and
others
to
Indiana
State,
where
Wooden
coached
and
earned
a
master's
in
education.
His
hometown
of
Martinsville,
Ind.,
also
received
keepsakes
for
display.
"But
UCLA
is
where
he
spent
most
of
his
time,"
Nan
told
the
university
recently.
"We
really
wanted
them
to
have
the
den.
I
think
they
did
a
great
job
on
it."
Wooden
and
his
wife,
Nell,
moved
into
their
condo
in
suburban
Encino
in
1972.
She
decorated
the
den,
where
Wooden
began
each
morning
at
his
rolltop
desk.
He'd
go
through
the
mail,
write
letters
and
poetry,
and
autograph
the
dozens
of
basketballs
and
books
sent
to
him
by
fans.
He
snacked
on
his
favorites
-
chocolate-covered
raisins,
jelly
beans
and
orange
candy
slices
-
while
watching
Westerns
starring
John
Wayne
and
baseball
games
announced
by
Vin
Scully.
Other
times,
he
leaned
back
in
the
recliner
and
listened
to
the
Mills
Brothers.
The
yellow
walls
of
the
den
are
covered
with
photos,
including
pictures
of
Wooden's
10
teams
that
won
national
championships
arranged
by
Nell
in a
pyramid,
similar
to
his
famous
"Pyramid
of
Success."
Letters
from
Presidents
Richard
Nixon,
Gerald
Ford
and
Ronald
Reagan
hang
near
the
recliner.
A
small
UCLA
basketball
hoop
is
over
the
closet
door.
A
bookcase
is
stuffed
with
hardcover
books
-
Wooden
was
a
voracious
reader
-
and
a
few
basketballs,
including
one
signifying
his
500th
victory
at
UCLA
that
rests
so
the
lettering
on
it
is
upside
down,
just
as
it
was
at
his
home.
A
homemade
plate
covered
in
scribbles
and
dated
1987
hangs
from
the
bookcase.
It
reads,
"Merry
Christmas
Pa
Pa
Love
Cori,"
a
long-ago
gift
from
Wooden's
first
grandchild.
"I
love
how
everything
that
anyone
ever
gave
him
he
kept
and
it's
really
given
the
same
importance
as
the
amazing
awards
he's
won,"
said
Emily
Greer,
curator
of
the
Hall
of
Fame.
The
television
in
the
exhibit
plays
a
19-minute
video
of
Wooden's
memorial
service
at
Pauley
and
an
interview
with
him.
"A
lot
of
people
talk
about
how
they
love
his
quotes
but
never
got
to
hear
his
voice.
Now
his
voice
will
live
forever
in
his
den,"
said
facilities
director
Kevin
Borg,
who
helped
Greer
with
the
exhibit.
In
another
corner
is a
gold
upholstered
chair
where
visitors,
including
some
of
college
basketball's
top
coaches,
sought
Wooden's
counsel.
A
black-and-white
signed
photo
from
Ward
"Piggy"
Lambert,
who
coached
Wooden
at
Purdue,
hangs
nearby.
"I've
been
in
there
twice
and
both
times
I
felt
like
I
was
taken
back
in
time,"
said
UCLA
gymnastics
coach
Valorie
Kondos
Field,
who
was
a
regular
visitor
to
Wooden's
condo.
"I
think
he
would
be
really
pleased
at
how
well
it's
done."
Members
of
Wooden's
extended
family
visited
the
display
after
a
campus
celebration
of
his
100th
birthday
on
Oct.
14.
The
contents
are
on
loan
to
the
school,
with
the
family
able
to
take
back
anything
they
might
want.
"They
were
all
just
pointing
at
things
and
saying,
'Oh,
I
gave
him
that,'
'Oh,
that's
what
I
gave
him,"'
Greer
said.
"They
really
loved
it."
Greer
and
Borg
made
several
visits
to
the
condo
in
preparation
for
the
move.
The
den
was
photographed
and
catalogued,
then
the
contents
were
moved
to
UCLA.
The
designers
used
the
photos
as a
reference
to
recreate
the
den
down
to
the
smallest
details,
including
the
original
curtains
for
a
corner
window.
The
bookshelf
was
reproduced
with
the
grains
going
in
the
same
direction
as
Wooden's.
"Even
the
framed
pictures
on
the
wall
are
spaced
exactly
how
we
found
them,"
Greer
said.
On
the
walls
outside
the
glass-enclosed
den
are
the
numerous
awards
and
honors
presented
to
Wooden
throughout
his
life.
Another
case
includes
his
collection
of
Abraham
Lincoln
items;
he
was
a
big
fan
of
the
16th
president.

PETERSBURG — The Lady Toppers could have played a little better against PORTA on Thursday, Mount Pulaski coach Donna Dulle said, but they were able to rebound from a Game 2 loss to win by scores of 25-15, 20-25, 25-20, giving Dulle her 900th career win.
|
MOUNT PULASKI — If there’s one thing about her 899th career win Mount Pulaski coach Donna Dulle thought could have been better, it was that the Lady Toppers could have played a little better. Mount Pulaski suffered some miscommunication and missed chances, but escaped with a 25-11, 25-16 win over New Berlin on Tuesday, bringing Dulle within one match of her 900th career win.

Good sports: Teaching kids to play the right
way-
Albert Pujols stands lingering in the
batter’s box after hitting what he thinks
will be a home run.
When it becomes clear the ball he is
admiring won’t be leaving the park, Pujols,
the St. Louis Cardinals’ star first baseman,
begins to leg it out, only to be thrown out
easily at second base. It’s a poor display
of hustle from one of the most respected
players in baseball, setting a bad example
for every youth league player who likes to
mimic Pujols’ every move. |

Go behind
the scenes
at
Springfield's
Illinois
State
Museum:
It’s been
documented
that the
Kodiak bear,
a
large-bodied
subspecies
of the brown
bear, is
found only
in the
Kodiak
Archipelago,
a group of
islands
south of
Alaska.
But there’s
at least one
in
Springfield.
A mounting
of the
Kodiak bear
— albeit one
that’s
stuffed and
not alive —
stands as a
focal point
in the new
exhibition
“North to
Alaska:
Photographs
by Robert
Glenn
Ketchum with
Collections
from Aleut,
Inuit,
Koyukon, and
Tlingit
Peoples” at
the Illinois
State
Museum.
Near the
bear, which
is 8 to 9
feet tall
and could
have weighed
as much as
1,500 pounds
when alive,
a Koyukon
man’s outfit
is
displayed.
The clothing
could have
fit a man
standing
5-foot-8.
