Oxford Area Sewer Authority takes big step toward sale of wastewater treatment system By Steven Hoffman Staff Writer
Landenberg Life Magazine
Schilling scores 3 TDs to lead Unionville over Oxford...2B
The Oxford Area Sewer Authority (OASA) authorized the start of a process that could result in the sale of the wastewater treatment system to the Delaware County Regional Water Authority (DELCORA) within 150 days. The Oxford Area Sewer Authority and DELCORA have started work on an Asset Purchase Agreement which, according to the agreed-upon framework, should be completed within 90 days. The closing on the purchase would then take place 60 days after the Asset Purchase Agreement. DELCORA will assume the remaining USDA loan
balance of approximately $27 million, which would clear the debt from all the OASA member municipalities and release them from the municipal guarantees. OASA will continue to pursue the sales of the building it owns on Third Street in Oxford, as well as land that it owns. If those properties are not sold before the Asset Purchase Agreement is reached, they will be transferred to DELCORA to continue to pursue the sale. The proceeds will be only applied to OASA and no other DELCORA interest. DELCORA will pay the closing costs for the transactions. Should DELCORA discontinue the use of existing spray fields, Oxford

adjust the rates using best practices. If the sale is completed, DELCORA will operate the OASA as a stand-alone entity, and will establish an advisory committee comprised of residents in the service area. For employees of OASA, DELCORA will extend employment offer letters
to each current full-time employee. Any agreement would be contingent on the United States Department of Agriculture’s approval of DELCORA’s loan application. To contact Staff Writer Steven Hoffman, email editor@chestercounty.com.

The du Pont legacy in our region...9A
By Steven Hoffman Staff Writer Dr. Eric Owens was unanimously appointed to fill a vacancy on the Oxford School Board at a meeting on Sept. 18. He will be representing Region 1 on the board, and will serve until the next school board election, which takes place in November of 2019. Owens is filling a vacancy that was created when David Severino resigned from the board in August. After the board voted on the appointment, Owens was immediately sworn into office by District Judge Scott Massey, and then he took a seat at the table with
the other board members. Owens is an associate professor at West Chester University, where he has worked since 2011. He is a licensed professional counselor who has worked as a counselor in private practice, as well as in the collegiate and secondary school settings. He served as a school counselor and also has taught many teachers and school administrators about crisis intervention. He and his family live in Oxford Borough. Owens said that the fact that he has two young children in the district was a motivating factor for him to seek a position on the school board. Continued on Page 5A
In an era when cameras are pointed everywhere, at everyone, the Arnold family of Oxford has found themselves the subject of a film that casts them as nervous, overspending, bankrupt arsonists. And they’re thrilled. “Fraud” is a 55-minute film assembled over the internet by director Dean Fleischer-Camp in 2016. It mines the family’s home videos that dad Gary Arnold had uploaded to YouTube, and by inserting some key scenes from other sources, it seems to show them burning down their house in a case of insurance fraud. For his part, Arnold is happy to maintain that he is not a criminal. But he is a bemused, semi-movie star whose family is at the center of a little storm. “Fraud” has gotten critical acclaim as it has gradually rolled out at independent film festivals, but it has also brought some consternation from audiences who accuse the director of stealing other people’s lives

and lying to the audience. Arnold said last week that Fleischer-Camp selecting his family in particular was up to chance. “Apparently, Dean found our YouTube channel quite by accident,” he said. “YouTube often sug-

Beneath the cover of two large tents that protected them from the rain, the family, friends and colleagues of State Trooper Kenton Iwaniec gathered outside the Pennsylvania Troop J Avondale Barracks on Sept. 17, to not only honor a fallen colleague, but to dedicate a portion of a local
highway to him. In a ceremony filled with heartfelt remembrance and praise, it was announced that the portion of Route 41 between Route 926 and U.S. Route 1 has been renamed the Trooper Kenton Iwaniec Memorial Highway. The hour-long tribute was highlighted by the words of speakers Judge Patrick Carmody, State Sens. John Rafferty and Andrew
Dinniman, Representative John Lawrence, Corporal Steven B. Ranck, Lieutenant Michelle Swantner and Iwaniec’s parents, Ken and Deb Iwaniec. A facsimile of the road sign that appears on Route 41 was unveiled at the ceremony. Throughout the event, gratitude was extended to Corporal Chris Winesburg, Lieutenant Rob Bailey,
Dinniman, Rafferty and Senator Kim Ward for their efforts to create the idea for the signage. In June, the Pa. State Legislature unanimously passed – and Gov. Wolf signed into law – Act 61 of 2018. On March 27, 2008, Trooper Iwaniec, 24, had finished his shift at the Avondale Barracks and began driving home. Two miles from the station, an
impaired driver crossed the center line and struck Iwaniec’s vehicle head on. Iwaniec was flown to Christiana Hospital and died as a result of his injuries. In the years since, the Iwaniec family has established the Trooper Kenton Iwaniec Foundation, which honors DUI victims, raises awareness about the seriousness of impaired driving, Continued on Page 5A

and sometimes delivers a welcome surprise.� The initial contact from a director he didn’t know took Arnold by surprise, he said. “I was contacted via a message posted in my inbox on YouTube in the spring of 2015,� he said. “At first I thought it was a joke or likely a scammer, and almost deleted it. Thankfully, after a little online research, I discovered Dean had already made a decent reputation for himself with a collection of award-winning children’s books and stopmotion animations about an anthropomorphic seashell that wears shoes, called ‘Marcel the Shell With Shoes On.’ So I decided to reply. “When he contacted me, Dean hadn’t started working on his movie yet,� Arnold added. “He just had these outlandish ideas for some type of art project. I’m a big fan of art, and said, ‘Go for it.’� What “Fraud� does, with its jumpy, speed-freak style, is tell a story of our mediaobsessed age. Innocuous scenes of the Arnold family at their home in Oxford, going on vacation, visiting local sites and generally living their lives have been carefully edited to
depict them in an entirely ficticious way. It’s a mindbending style of cinema that is part “Blair Witch Project� and part “Truman Show,� and it opens the door to a whole new genre of filmmaking – borrowed source material spun a whole new way. “I think he found the straightforward, homestyle aesthetic refreshing because we weren’t trying to create a brand or image,� Arnold said. “I just filmed whatever weekend adventure.� The videos feature Gary, his wife Antje Arnold (who recently wrote a book about her life behind the Berlin Wall), and their children, Joshua, 16, and Kylee, 13. “Fraud� raises fascinating questions, among them the fact that a family documenting their arson and sharing it with the world seems almost sensible in our share-everything age. But the fact that FleischerCamp did the whole thing remotely makes it kind of scary. There’s a YouTube video that dissects how he did it, showing the editing process. The director put thousands of tiny video clips into separate files (“Nice shots/sequences,� “Money�) and even snippets of dialogue (“Dad – Alright guys let’s do
it�) and then edits them together with Final Cut Pro X software to spin a narrative in which the actors aren’t really acting. To show them burning down their home, he uses video of Antje spray-cleaning the carpet, then Googles “electrical fire in house� and “sparking outlet,� inserts the footage, and then shows a house on fire. Gary says, “It went straight up. That’s what we want.� The edgy, quick-cut style perfectly suits the headlong rush of the subject matter. “Given Dean’s impeccable reputation as someone who creates children’s material, my wife and I remained completely confident he wouldn’t create something obscene or objectionable,� Arnold said. “Dean formally licensed our home movies, and about a year later, ‘Fraud’ debuted, much to our delight. “It is simply amazing to see what Dean and his editor, Jonathan Rippon, created. This film demonstrates the power of selective editing to manipulate an audience, and the potential to abuse such power in the era of almost nightly claims of ‘fake news.’� Despite the arguments that some critics have made about the director hijacking a family’s mov-

ies, Arnold said, “We never felt exploited by any of this. This is an art film, all in good fun. Just sit back and enjoy the magic of Hollywood.� In online interviews, Fleischer-Camp said he was drawn to Arnold’s jumpy video technique, which made it easier to build tension in the narrative. “Yes, my style of filming can be unsettling in that I treat the camera lens as an extension of my eye,� Arnold said, laughing. “Therefore, I will often move quickly from one interest to another, zoom in and out to focus on whatever suddenly grabs my attention. Having a short attention span actually worked to my advantage as I filmed tidbits of everything.� Arnold’s wife, Antje, agrees that the family wan’t exploited. “Dean never hijacked our foot-

age. We still control our home movies,� she said. “We gave him permission to use our footage and use it to create an interesting take on a documentary. However, in this age and time, you make yourself vulnerable every time you put content on any social media platform, which means anything that has an innocent starting point can be taken out of context.� Given the groundbreaking experiment their family has just been part
of, Arnold said he’s enjoying the attention. “I’m not sure what the genre should be called,� he said of the film. “But whatever the name that gets decided upon, it should at least sound interesting.� “Fraud� is now streaming via iTunes and VUDU, and will soon be available on Amazon Movies.

Oxford Library seeks additional funding By Steven Hoffman Staff Writer The Oxford Library is seeking a small increase in funding from Oxford Borough for 2019. At the meeting on Sept. 17, borough council briefly discussed the request of an
increase from about $7,500 to $8,500. Council member Peggy Ann Russell read the letter from the library, which stated that this is the first increase in funding that the library has sought since 2012. Carey Bresler, the library director, was at the meet-
ing. She explained that the library is asking for about 20 cents per capita from each of the municipalities that it serves, including Oxford Borough. The Oxford Library offers great value to residents in the community. Bresler noted that in 2017, Oxford

Borough residents borrowed 22,678 items from the library. Earlier in the meeting, Mayor Lorraine Bell issued a proclamation recognizing September as Library Card Sign-Up Month. The proclamation noted that libraries provide many different resources to community members, and Bell encouraged everyone to stop by the Oxford Library to check out what is available. The most lengthy discussion during the meeting was about the proposed parking garage project. Borough council vice president Peggy Ann Russell made a motion, which was seconded by council member Amanda Birdwell, to have the borough retain an outside auditor to review the projected revenues and projected expenditures on the project. Russell said that she was making the motion based on community input. She said that if the borough is doing such a large project, it would be beneficial to have a professional look at the figures that the borough council members are relying on to make a decision about the parking garage. Russell said that community members, in particular,
expressed some concerns about the revenue figures. “The community is asking for a non-participating person to look at these numbers,� said Russell. The deadline to award bids to do the construction work on the project is quickly approaching, and borough council is expected to make a major decision about the project next month. Several council members pointed out that the duties of an auditor did not seem to fit what Russell was asking for. “An auditor would not be able to answer the questions that you’re looking to have answered,� said council president Sue Lombardi. Lombardi, council member Ron Hershey, and borough manager Brian Hoover all expressed their doubts that the figures needed to be reviewed. The borough has been working with Steve Krug of Krug Architects for more than two years to plan the project. Hoover said that all the estimates that the borough has worked with have turned out to be accurate. Lombardi said that the borough has paid professionals to do work related to the project, and it doesn’t make sense, with the deadline for a decision approaching, to have another professional verify the figures. Ultimately, borough council decided by a 4-3 vote to allow Russell, as the chairperson of the Finance Committee, to select a professional to look at the
figures that are being used. Borough council approved an expenditure of up to $1,500 to retain the professional, and a report will be expected by borough council’s meeting on Oct. 8. While the deadline to approve the construction bids falls sometime in the fourth week of October, the most likely scenario is that borough council would try to approve the bids at the meeting on Monday, Oct. 15. Lombardi said that she thought it would be difficult to hire a professional and have the work completed within a few weeks, but she voted in favor of the motion because she didn’t want anyone to think that borough council wasn’t doing its due diligence. Lombardi reiterated her support for the parking garage project. In other business at the meeting, council authorized the signing of a contract for a $25,000 grant from DCED that will be used to install sidewalks on Coach Street near Oxford Memorial Park. The borough initially sought the grant as part of a project to install inclusive playground equipment at the park. Oxford Borough Council approved a special event application for the Oxford United Methodist Church’s Harvest Fair, which will take place on Saturday, Oct. 13.

Local News Good weather and good turnout make Bike the Brandywine a success Greeted with a sunny sky and crisp fall weather, nearly 500 cyclists joined the Brandywine Conservancy’s third annual Bike the Brandywine event on Sept. 22. Featuring routes of 25 to 80 miles along the Brandywine Creek Greenway, Bike the Brandywine took riders along a scenic journey with views of rural landscapes, rich history and active farmland, much of which the Brandywine Conservancy has helped protect for future generations. All three routes concluded at the Chadds Ford Historical Society as cyclists were welcomed back to the sounds of cheers and cowbells, as well as celebratory drinks from Victory Brewing Company and a lunch. “Bike the Brandywine is a fun way for cyclists to enjoy the scenic beauty of the Brandywine Valley and to get a sense of our decades-long efforts to conserve and protect the land, the river and the historic sites of this area,” said Ellen Ferretti, director of the Brandywine Conservancy. “Thanks to the support of the William Penn Foundation and our

Each route began and ended at the Chadds Ford Historical Society, with
options for both the recreational and more seasoned cyclist. Following both the east and west branches of the historic Brandywine River, the 80-mile loop guided riders from Chadds Ford all the way to the river’s headwaters in Honey Brook Township. Cyclists on the 45-mile loop followed the west branch of the river through the King Ranch area in Unionville before winding past the historic village of Marshallton. Closely mirroring the early routes of both the 80- and 45-mile options, the 25-mile loop
followed the west branch of the river through open farmland and scenic river valleys, providing a trip through the village of Marshallton and its neighboring equestrian and farming landscapes. “Bike the Brandywine offered riders a taste of the Brandywine Creek Greenway and the beautiful surrounding countryside,” said Sheila Fleming, manager for municipal assistance at the Brandywine Conservancy. “It’s a wonderful opportunity to support the Conservancy and highlight

‘Into the Woods’ fashion show to be held Sept. 29 The Love to Sew Studio will be hosting its tenth annual fashion show on Sept. 29 in the gymnasium at the Cornerstone Presbyterian Church in Landenberg. Entitled “Into The Woods,” the show will feature the work of 20 young fashion designers from the ages of 8 to18, who will be presenting their themed day wear collections, consisting of garments and accessories they have designed, sewn and handcrafted themselves. The young designers spend up to a year working on their collections, choosing coordinating music and models, and altering their work for the perfect fit. The garments featured range in skill level, from beginners showing simple skirts and dresses for fun, to advanced dressmakers showcasing couture evening gowns, fitted jumpers, vintage-styled garments, and tailored jackets. Advanced designers will have the option to have their collections judged by experienced fashion and sewing professionals, with awards to be given at the closing ceremony for excellence in construction, creativity, and design, and most marketable. In addition to the designers’ everyday collections, there will be extravagant looks featured in three costume categories: Into the Woods, Steampunk & Junk, and Art & Fashion. The fashion show is a family friendly event, and invites the audience to participate. Audience members can cast their votes for their favorite costume in each category, and awards will be given for Viewer’s Choice. The show begins at 1:00 p.m. for the junior design-

Suspect arrested in West Fallowfield homicide case Chester County law enforcement off icials announced the capture and arrest of Hakeem Smith for a murder that took place on Sept. 13. Smith was arrested just six days after the body of Sam Algarin was found on the side of the road in West Fallowf ield Township. Algarin, a resident of Quarryville, had suffered a fatal gunshot wound to the chest. District Attorney Tom Hogan called the crime a “senseless and coldblooded killing.” The narrative laid out by investigators reveals the tragedy of Algarin’s death - he was a random victim of horrific violence. According to police, the
Smith
suspect in the killing lived with his mother in Oxford. On Sept. 13, Smith got into an argument with his mother, resulting in the police being called and the defendant being removed from the residence. Smith then left the residence on foot that evening, carrying bags of his belongings. The defendant did not have a car. He was in close proximity to the Starbucks
in Oxford. Algarin had parked his vehicle, a GMC Terrain, near the Starbucks that evening. Algarin, his two sons, and his mother then drove to a martial arts class in Algarin’s mother’s car, with the class lasting until 9 p.m. At approximately 9:12 p.m., Algarin, his mother, and his kids then picked up a pizza from a local pizza shop. At approximately 9:30 to 9:40 p.m., Algarin was dropped off in the Starbucks parking lot to pick up his truck, which was still parked there. The victim’s mother drove the children back to her house, where the victim was supposed to meet them. Algarin never returned.
Investigators believe that it was Algarin’s truck and whatever cash that he had on him that served as motivation for the crime. “The defendant needed a car and money so he killed an innocent victim to get what he wanted,” Hogan said in the statement. “Sam Algarin was a good father to his children, a good son to his mother, a good worker to his employer, and a friend to everybody he met. The defendant killed the victim and dumped him on the side of the road like trash. Now the defendant will face justice.” During the course of the police investigation, they were able to locate video of Smith with the victim’s vehicle minutes
after the murder, as well as the defendant’s palm print on the vehicle after it was abandoned, and the defendant’s footprint on the victim’s phone that was discarded in a f ield near where the body was found. Smith was taken into custody in West Chester after being spotted on the street by a West Chester police officer. Smith went into a residence, but eventually surrendered to the West Chester SWAT team. Smith, 30, is in custody facing charges of murder, robbery, and related offenses. He is not eligible for bail and was remanded to Chester County Prison. The discovery of Sam Algarin’s body triggered an intensive investigation
by the Chester County Detectives, the West Fallowf ield Police Department, and several other law enforcement agencies. “This was a great team effort by the West Fallowf ield Police Department and Chester County District Attorney’s Off ice,” said West Fallowfield Police Chief Charles Wilmont. “West Fallowfield is a quiet and peaceful rural area, and we seldom see violence like this. However, the entire team came together to investigate and arrest the defendant. My thoughts and prayers go out to Sam Algarin’s family.” The Oxford community held a vigil to mourn Algarin on Sept. 22.
County Commissioners announce Quality of Life survey As part of its ongoing strategic planning effort, the Chester County Commissioners have announced a countywide Quality of Life survey that asks residents to comment on their experiences in using county services and interacting with county staff. The survey, an update on Chester County Quality of Life surveys undertaken in 2009 and 2013, has been developed in partnership with West Chester University’s Center for
Social and Economic Policy Research. Results of the survey will be incorporated in the county’s 20192023 strategic plan. The survey has been mailed to 12,000 households, which represents more than 7.5 percent of all residents. The survey is also available online at the county’s website, www.chesco.org/survey. The online survey takes f ive to 10 minutes to complete, and is available in both English and Spanish. To obtain a paper version of the
survey, residents can call 610-344-6280. “We want to hear about our residents’ experiences using our county services,” said Chester County Commissioners’ chair Michelle Kichline. “We are interested in hearing from those who use our parks and trails, those who visit our health clinics, anyone who appreciates our public safety services, our thriving downtowns, as well as all of the other vital programs and services that the county provides.”

Dr. Jeffery Osgood of the West Chester University’s Center for Social and Economic Policy Research said, “The mailed surveys were randomly sent to homes through a process where residences in each region of the county had a relatively equal chance of being invited to participate in the Chester County Quality of Life survey.” “In everything we do, we plan,” said Chester County Commissioner Kathi Cozzone. “We need to hear from the
public about what they believe are the most important topics are for us to address during the next five years – from open space and urban growth to transportation options, job creation and economic development.” Survey questions seek information about recent interactions with county offices and employees, experiences using county services and facilities, as well as opinions on how tax dollars should be spent. The survey also addresses questions about the quality of life
for residents of Chester County. “Time and again Chester County is recognized as an excellent place to live, work and raise a family,” said Chester County Commissioner Terence Farrell. “As county commissioners, we make every effort to provide cost-eff icient and effective programs and services that will ensure these top accolades continue. We need our residents’ viewpoints to help us plan for the future.”

Township receives $379,000 state grant for waterline construction The Commonwealth Financing Authority (CFA) approved a $378,590 grant for the construction of a waterline in New Garden Township, on Sept. 18. The $445,400 project involves the construction of 3,200 linear feet of 8-inch waterline along Airport Way, beginning at Newark Road. The line will serve the New Garden Flying Field, and will also provide fire protection and township water to a specialty medical supplies company. Two fire hydrants will also be
installed. The grant will also allow the township to offer Q-fix, a business on Church Road, the opportunity to connect to public water and to expand its business. “Because of this grant, New Garden Township will benefit from an important project that will come at a greatly reduced cost, which relieves a large burden from the taxpayers and provides value to the community,” said Eric Roe, State Rep for the 158th District. The CFA grant is part of
the Pennsylvania Small Water and Sewer Program, which provides grants for small water and sewer infrastructure projects and can be used to assist with the construction, improvement, expansion, rehabilitation or repair of a water supply or sanitary sewer system.

Owens... Continued from Page 1A
While the school board members were happy to welcome Owens, a highly educated professional, to their ranks, school board president Joseph Tighe lamented the fact that there was only one person who applied to fill the vacancy, especially since being appointed to fill a vacancy is a much easier process than having to campaign for a seat during an election. “It is distressing that we
had one candidate,” Tighe said. “I think that’s sad.” Tighe quickly moved on to thank Owens for wanting to serve the school district as a board member. “I want to commend Dr. Owens for stepping forward,” Tighe said. In other business at the meeting, the school board approved a new memorandum of agreement with the Oxford Educational Foundation for the recruitment, training, placement, and supervision of volunteers in the schools for the
2018-2019 school year. The Oxford Educational Foundation currently works with more than 100 volunteers in the Oxford community. The Oxford School Board will hold meetings next month on Tuesday, Oct. 9 and Tuesday, Oct. 16. Both meetings take place at 7 p.m. at the Administration Building.

Oxford Good Government group thanks U.S. Rep. Smucker By Steven Hoffman Staff Writer Local residents, business owners, community activists and some elected officials from the southern Chester County region gathered in support of good government on Sept. 19. Shelley Meadowcroft and Paul Andriole, members of the Oxford Good Government group, explained that the
event, which was held at the WayVine Winery and Vineyard in Nottingham, was to support bipartisan lawmakers and candidates who are in favor of open, transparent, and honest government. Distinguished guests included Chester County Commissioner Terence Farrell, former state rep. Art Hershey and his wife Joyce, Chester County District
Attorney Tom Hogan, county Register of Wills Terri Clark, and a number of township supervisors and commiteepeople from the area. The Oxford Good Government Group honored Congressman Lloyd Smucker for his service during the last four years. The boundaries of Pennsylvania’s congressional districts
have been redrawn, so Smucker is currently running to represent the 11th district, which will include Lancaster County and a small portion of York County. Andriole said that Smucker was very attentive to the southern Chester County constituents. “Congressman Smucker has really been a great representative for us,” Andriole explained. “He has
been a hands-on, constituentserving representative. The people of York will be lucky to have him.” Smucker was unable to attend the event because of his duties in Washington, D.C., but his district director, Zach Peirson, was on hand to accept a plaque that the Oxford Good Government group had prepared for him. Hogan was supposed to
deliver some remarks at the event, but he was pressed into duty when he was notified about the tragic shooting in East Goshen Township. State Rep. John Lawrence stepped in to talk about some of the work that state lawmakers are doing in Harrisburg. To contact Staff Writer Steven Hoffman, email editor@chestercounty.com.

Letter to the Editor
Finding the poetry Which is better, a parking gate or a kiosk? in our grief Letter to the Editor:
Despite the contents of the nearly 1,400-page Merriam-Webster’s Collegiate Dictionary that contains the vast lexicon of the English language, no one, not even the poets, has been able to string together words that properly unravel the tragedy of a young person’s death, or dare to lay beauty and closure down over the grief of such an unfathomable loss. It is our aspiration and our will, however, to keep trying. It requires talent to illuminate, in words, the gut wrench description of a young person being taken from us, but more often than not, it’s the heart that is best able to convey an act that is often described as a robbery. On the receiving end, it is luck when we get to hear those words resonate the absolute hollow of truth in our ears. Last week, in a ceremony to honor a young person who was taken too soon, those words dripped down like the rain that fell on this part of Chester County. At the Pennsylvania State Police Troop J Avondale Barracks on Sept. 17, two oversized white tents protected about 100 visitors from an onslaught of rain. They were there to officially dedicate a portion of the Route 41 corridor north of Route 1 the Trooper Kenton Iwaniec Memorial Highway, in honor of the State Trooper who was killed by an impaired driver on March 27, 2008, just as the 24-year-old Iwaniec had finished his shift at the barracks and was heading home. Just prior to his death, Iwaniec had purchased an engagement ring for his girlfriend Julie, and was getting ready to propose to her. As Iwaniec’s parents Ken and Deb and their immediate family sat in the front row, speaker after speaker expressed his or her sentiments directly to the family. After an invocation by Senior Pastor Dr. Earl Blackwell, Corporal Steven B. Ranck from Troop T in King of Prussia, spoke eloquently about his former colleague in Avondale. “Trooper Iwaniec was a caring individual,” Ranck said. “He was smart, funny and he loved his family and friends very much. Trooper Iwaniec’s friends had a nickname for him. They called him ‘The Shepard.’ He was always there for others.” The Hon. Patrick Carmody, the Deputy District Attorney for the County Court of Pleas, successfully prosecuted the Iwaniec case. As sentencing approached, Carmody asked the Iwaniecs to send some letters from people who could discuss the character of their son. He received hundreds of letters, which he then presented to Judge Ronald C. Nagle. “Frankly, he was blown away by it,” Carmody said. “He said, ‘How could one person who was only 24-years old affect so many lives in a lifetime?’” Carmody pointed to the green road sign that now bears Iwaniec’s name. “Any time a person sees this sign, they’ll say, ‘Why is that person’s name there?’ They will be reminded how precious life is. Kenton was a special person raised by a special family, and he continues to be a Shepard, because he continues to show us the way.” Rep. John Lawrence told the Iwaniecs a story about a friend of his who lost two of his children. “He told me once, ‘The thing I think about John, is that I don’t want people to forget them,’” Lawrence said. “This sign we’re putting up here today, is it a small token? Yes, but it says that your son is not forgotten. The people of southern Chester County have not forgotten, and any time a person drives by this sign, [it will indicate] that we have not forgotten, and that we remember this trooper who gave everything to the people of this community, and this commonwealth.” Sen. John Rafferty pointed to the ashen sky. “I’m mindful of an Irish saying that says that if it should rain on the day of your funeral or your memorial, that it’s the tears of angels in heaven rejoicing, of a soul being honored in the heavenly kingdom,” he said. “The angels are very happy that we’re remembering Kenton. “We’re honoring him as a hero, as a member of the Pennsylvania State Police who knew, day in and day out, that he was going to face danger, and he gave his life as a hero.” The last words of the dedication, and perhaps the most eloquent, were delivered by Sen. Andrew Dinniman, who spoke about the efforts the Iwaniec family has made to honor their son by forming an organization, in his name, that has helped spearhead efforts in the state to curb drunk driving and equip police officers with tools to help them test potential impaired drivers. Dinniman told the Iwaniec’s story by telling the stories of Chester County families who have turned tragedy into roads that lead to change and action. “You can’t blame any one or any family who has lost a child for just withdrawing so they don’t have to remember, day in and day out,” he said. “But when you commit yourself to change, every time you get up, every time you attend an event, you remember. “No task is higher than honoring your children like this. When we do good, when we do God’s work, and we keep the memories of our children alive.” Just as Dinniman finished, the rain arrived again after a brief respite, this time harder than before.
The current parking lots that are owned by Oxford Borough are using kiosks for people to park their cars. Many people don’t know how to use the kiosks and get frustrated when trying to figure them out. Handicapped people have a hard time even walking to the kiosk. The kiosks take credit cards or quarters to pay to park. Not all people carry change with them so they have to go to the bank to get quarters before they can park. Many people don’t want to use their credit cards to charge one dollar on them. Several people decide not to use the kiosks and will park a couple of blocks away and walk into the Oxford business district or restaurants.
The Oxford Borough Council decided to install the kiosks because of the pre-school traffic that goes through the 2nd Street parking lot. The council didn’t want the carpool traffic to pay to enter and pay to exit when dropping off their children to pre-school at the Oxford Presbyterian Church. The Borough Council also voted to make the adjacent street next to the Presbyterian Church (Octoraro alley) an entrance and exit for preschool drop off and pick up during construction of the parking garage. If this traffic remains the same after construction, there is no need for the kiosks for the 2nd Street parking lot. Somehow, I think the kiosk system is really meant to generate additional income
for Oxford Borough through increased parking fines to help pay for the 300-plus car parking garage. The kiosks have upset the patrons of our rural town and have put people “on edge” knowing that they may get a $15 parking fine if the parked car runs out of time on the meter. I propose that the Borough should scrap the kiosks and install a parking gate system for the existing two parking lots and the new parking garage instead. It’s simple… you get a ticket stub when you enter the parking lot and pay for the time you have been parked when you leave. It would encourage people to shop in town or go to local restaurants and not be worried about getting a parking fine and penalized when they get back to their car.
I talked to a person who invited a friend into Oxford to eat at a local restaurant and when they got back to their cars they each had a fine attached to their windshield for $15 each. This makes the restaurant look bad when the people said they will not come back to eat at that restaurant in Oxford ever again. Unfortunately, this is the mindset of the Oxford Borough Council when they voted to use the kiosks and use this “negative” system. In summary: get rid of the kiosks and install a parking gate system and you will change the attitude of shoppers from a negative to a positive experience about Oxford, and encourage them to come into town to spend their money.

Vote for Walker on Election Day Letter to the Editor: It is important to remember that elected officials are public servants who work for us. Every politician seeking reelection should be treated like an employee due for a performance review. John Lawrence seeks reelection in the 13th district following four terms. If reelected, he will receive a generous pension. What kind of employee has he been? Mr. Lawrence voted to allow polluters to dump up to 210 gallons of oil at a time with no penalty. Spills
a fraction of this size have contaminated water wells causing cancer, making the wells useless and dangerous. He voted against funding bridge and road repairs. He consistently votes to cut funding to our public schools and universities, causing property taxes and college tuition to continue rising. He voted against any type of background check in order to purchase a firearm, even for felons, illegal aliens and the mentally ill. He is part of the least productive State Legislature in history, which can’t even pass
a budget on time, but they can adjourn four days early, leaving good bills passed by the senate, to die. These bills would have protected victims of domestic violence, school violence and provided for fair voting districts and secure elections. So what has he done? He wrote and passed a bill allowing owners of antique cars to display age-appropriate license plates; a bill that benefits him and a small group of antique car fans. Oh, yes, and he has an “A” rating from the Russian-backed and scandal-riddled NRA.
Our nation stands at a crossroads, with scandal and corruption plaguing our government, huge tax breaks for the rich while the working class and small businesses struggle. We, the people deserve better. Luckily we have an alternative. Sue Walker, a normal working person concerned with our problems is running for state representative. Based upon Mr. Lawrence’s record, we need and deserve a hard worker like Sue Walker. Russell Losco London Grove
Why I’m running for re-election By State Rep. John Lawrence For the past seven years, it has been a great honor and deeply humbling to serve our community in the Pennsylvania House of Representatives. With the 2018 election approaching, I want to let you know why I am again seeking your support. When I first ran for office, it was to be a champion for reform – to change Harrisburg so it works better for our citizens. To lead by example in that effort, I have refused the taxpayer-paid defined benefit pension, the unaccountable per diem payments and perks like a cell phone and a free state car. I continue to advocate for legislation that holds elected officials accountable and returns power back to people, including an independent citizens commission to set legislative salaries and draw legislative districts; returning the legislature to part-time status; and mandatory drug testing for legislators. When speaking with folks at the grocery store or around town, rising school property taxes is a primary issue of concern. I have been a relentless voice on property tax reform, supporting a number of proposals to directly address the issue. I sponsored legislation that unanimously passed the House to dedicate all revenue from casino table games to property tax relief, and I was a “yes” vote on House Bill 76 to eliminate property taxes. Rising school taxes are directly related to the fiscal crisis facing the state pension systems – which are woefully underfunded due to incredibly poor budget decisions made by Governors Ridge and Rendell, and the Republican and Democrat legislators who enabled them. To be clear, teachers have always made every payment required to the
pension system – the underfunding problem is a direct result of a shortsighted lack of leadership by both parties during the first decade of this century. I am committed to keeping the pension promises made to our teachers. Just this year, I voted to designate $2.26 billion to PSERS, the teacher’s pension system. By way of comparison, that’s almost the same amount the state put into PSERS during the entire eight years of the Rendell administration. I will continue to strongly advocate making actuarially responsible payments to fund the state pension systems. I believe that education must be a top priority for everyone in our state – to ensure that every student has the opportunity to receive a great education. I have fought hard to prioritize education spending in the state budget – in fact, this year’s state budget delivered more money to our local school districts than any previous year in the history of the Commonwealth. I successfully moved legislation through the House that would give parents the ability to optout of the Keystone Exams for their children, with no negative penalties to the student, parent, or teacher. And when Gov. Wolf proposed eliminating funding to the New Bolton Center Veterinary School, I worked with legislators from both sides of the aisle to ensure this critical resource in Southern Chester County remained strong. Or course, serving also means focusing on local issues that impact our community. As a lifelong resident of this area, for many years I saw folks diligently paying taxes with little of that money returning to support local infrastructure. Over the past several years, I have tried to reverse that historic imbalance and attract the resources necessary to address long-
overdue infrastructure issues in our community. Specifically, I have been a leader on efforts to realign the intersection at Old Baltimore Pike and PA Route 796 in Jennersville, and in the revitalization of downtown Oxford with the construction of a transit center / parking facility. Working with federal, state, and local officials, over $5 million in funding has been committed to moving these critical infrastructure projects forward. The Red Rose intersection project will commence in early 2019 and is anticipated to be completed by next summer. I commit to continuing to advocate for our community in a fiscally prudent manner to address long-standing infrastructure issues. I believe people want elected officials to be accessible and accountable. During my time in office, I have hosted over 50 town hall meetings, including eight this term alone. All of the expenses of my office are posted online for your review. In a commitment to bringing government to the people, I regularly attend a variety of community events, municipal meetings, Eagle Scout ceremonies, chamber of commerce breakfasts, non-profit fundraisers,
and school functions. In the days ahead, I will continue my efforts to provide efficient service and exceptional community engagement. In a day and age where politics are increasingly polarizing and it seems like people from different political backgrounds can’t even have a conversation with each other, I have tried very hard to engage legislators on both sides of the aisle by working on common sense legislation that has attracted broad, bipartisan support. I have drafted and moved legislation to reduce state debt, reform government, eliminate duplicative government fees, and protect victims of domestic violence. By building a bipartisan consensus, six bills I sponsored this session passed the House with votes of 1911, 191-0, 187-0, 187-4, 188-2, and 154-39, respectively. As we look ahead to the General Election, I look forward to a strong campaign and a vigorous debate on the issues. For more information, please visit www. LawrenceForRep.com. I humbly ask for your vote on Nov. 6 so that I may continue to serve our community. Thank you for the opportunity to serve as your State Representative.

Gateway beautification project in early stages By Richard L. Gaw Staff Writer The Kennett Township Board of Supervisors Sept. 5 and 19 introduced a new initiative, directed praise toward a township department and reluctantly paid tax on a historic home. As part of his report to the board on Sept. 5, Nate Echeverria, the director of economic development for Historic Kennett Square, said the Historic Kennett Square’s Design Committee, in collaboration with Kennett Township and the township’s Environmental Advisory Committee, is in the very early stages of a collaboration with Longwood Gardens to create a gateway beautification project near the eastern entrance to Kennett Borough, at the grassy median area off of Route 1 on State Street. While the project, Echeverria said, is still in its infancy, it’s one that would, if implemented, create a meadow of tall grasses, wildflowers and other foliage in the triangleshaped patch of ground that serves as the eastern entrance to the borough. Its concept would extend the landscaped appearance of Longwood Gardens and create a beautification link to the borough. Projects of this shape and scope are in keeping with the objectives of the Design Committee, which coordinates downtown design concepts; helps to establish financial incentive programs for design improvements; and works with vendors to improve the design and appearance of the borough’s
business district. The committee serves as a working component of the 2016 Kennett Region Economic Development Study, which implements the economic goals and recommendations of the borough, the township, in conjunction with county’s comprehensive plan. Echeverria announced that the Chester County Planning Commission will host a Planners Forum on Oct. 24 at Longwood Gardens, at which Longwood Gardens’ Executive Director Paul Redmond will provide an update on current and future projects there. In addition, the forum will also invite representatives from the Chester County Convention and Visitors Bureau. In other township business, the board voted 3-0 to adopt the 2015 international code that applies to the township’s fire, building inspection, property maintenance, plumbing, electrical, mechanical and energy codes. The board also appointed five individuals to its Architectural Review Committee. They include architect Ed Rahme, Marla Palmer and Jim Guthrie of the township’s planning commission, township zoning officer Diane Hicks and Tom Comitta, the township’s landscape architect. At its Sept. 19 meeting, on the advice of township solicitor David Sander, the board agreed to pay a transfer tax in the approximate amount of $12,500, related to the township’s purchase of the historic Fussell House in 2016. By order of the Board of Finance and Revenue of Pennsylvania, $6,000 of the payment will go to the

Commonwealth, $3,000 will be directed to the local school district, and the township will receive $3,200 back. Prior to the ruling, the issue was discussed at the Commonwealth Court and the State Supreme Court. After weighing another option – which would have the township further appeal the ruling – the board felt that the cost of paying the tax [about $9,000] would be less than the anticipated legal costs of appealing the ruling. “Our choice is the probability of spending a lot of money [to appeal], or to cut our losses and get on with things, so my inclination is to cut our losses,” said Board Chairman Scudder Stevens. An estimated 650 township residents have signed up to be included on the ‘No Solicitation’ list, accessible from the township’s website, that indicates that their address is off limits to door-to-door solicitations. Non-profit groups, religious organizations and political affiliations are exempt
for the township’s solicitation rules. The Clifton Mill Bridge, closed on June 22 due to structural failure, is on the PennDOT’s “funded” list. The township has not received a date for when repairs to the bridge will begin. Responding to a question about the 597 incidents the department responded to in August, Police Chief Lydell Nolt led a discussion about the use – and effectiveness of – body cameras that are affixed to the uniforms of officers in the department. “This technology has brought a whole new awakening to the officers, to just how valuable that footage is to them,” Nolt said. “As a police administrator, I find it very important to understand what our officers are doing, above and beyond somebody calling and making a request for service.” Nolt said that an officer is required to activate their cameras during every police action, which is used to
document each incident. A body camera also enables the department to capture interactions between officers and citizens. It’s a teaching tool for officers as well, because it gives them an opportunity to study their working habits, and self-correct, if needed. “We want these interactions to be as professional and positive as possible,” Nolt said. “It also gives a supervisor an opportunity to have a very valid conversation about what occurred [at a particular incident]. When a camera comes into play, it allows a supervisor to render, in his or her own opinion, to determine if there is a problem here, or not a problem here.” The police department enjoyed a busy summer with appearances at several community service events, that included The Church of the Advent, the Rock the Park event at Anson B. Nixon Park, the Dog Days of Summer event, and an appearance at Longwood Gardens.
The police department will host a drug “Take-Back” event on Oct. 27, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the township building, that will allow residents to drop off unused prescription medication. The drugs will be collected, turned over to the Drug Enforcement Agency, and incinerated. Public Works Director Roger Lysle and his six-member department received praise for their efforts during the recent late-summer storms that swept through the township and the region. During the heavy rains, they responded to emergency calls, removed fallen trees from roads, and repaired water pipes that had been obstructed from debris. Twenty minutes of a heavy rain, Lysle said, often translates into two-tothree-days’ repair work for the department, and often delays progress on other projects, such as paving. “The Police Department would like to thank the Public Works Department for their hard work throughout the summer, at all hours of the day,” Nolt said. “My officers have routinely called the department for storm-related incidents throughout the summer. We do appreciate their assistance. Their guys have to be on call. No one likes to get those calls at two in the morning, but that department works together, seamlessly.” “The public’s respect is very high for us, and we hope to continue to treat everyone as we would want to be treated,” Lysle said. “We try to do the best we can, and safety is our highest priority.” To contact Staff Writer Richard L.

The du Ponts, the Founding Fathers and the creation of the American economy (Part three of three)
By Gene Pisasale Correspondent The name du Pont is one that is instantly recognizable, whether you live in California or Pennsylvania, the southwest or the northeast or anywhere in between. Beginning in 1802, E.I. du Pont’s powder works set in motion a trend toward greater reliance on manufacturing (rather than just agriculture) which took America to the top tier of world powers in the Industrial Revolution. Members of the du Pont family have used their wealth over the decades to give back to society, funding hospitals, civic and philanthropic projects, as well as creating some of the most beautiful landmarks in the Brandywine Valley outside Philadelphia. Most people who visit Chester County know Longwood Gardens, one of the most spectacular collections of trees, shrubs and flowering plants in the United States, spread across 1,050 acres of meadows, woodlands and gardens in Kennett Square. Longwood began as a patch of woods purchased by Pierre S. du Pont in 1906 to save the trees from being cut down and sold for lumber. Today, the site hosts more than a million visitors from around the world each year. Yet this site is just one of many linked to the du Pont family and the company, many of which are open to the public along the “Du Pont Historic Corridor” which flanks Delaware Route 141.
From Chestnut Run and Barley Mill Plazas, which have supported research in the development of hundreds of products over the decades, to Winterthur, the Du Pont Experimental Station and the Hagley Museum (the latter showcasing the company’s roots in gunpowder), these locations highlight the history of one of America’s most prestigious families. Two locations along the corridor deserve special mention. Alfred I. du Pont (1864-1935) attended M.I.T. and later worked at the Du Pont powder works beginning in the 1880s. He was a very skilled “powderman,” awarded more than 200 patents linked to his research. In 1909, Alfred wanted to build a house where he and his second wife, Alicia, could live and entertain friends. Over the next year, workers labored to build Nemours (named after the ancestral region of France linked to the patriarch of the family). Nemours is a palatial, Louis XVI Rococo-style mansion and gardens near Wilmington. At 47,000 square feet, this home, built just after the turn of the 20th century, is one of the most magnificent structures in the Brandywine Valley. Designed by Carrere and Hastings, who designed the New York Public Library and numerous other structures for Andrew Carnegie, J.P. Morgan and other notables, it is an architectural masterpiece. As you arrive at the front of the house after taking the public tour bus, you see lovely
wrought iron gates with an N at their crest. Walking in the front doorway, you encounter a front meeting room with black and white marble checkerboard tiles laid out in front of numerous works of art. A beautiful portrait of George Washington by artist James Peale hangs on the wall. James was the uncle of famed portrait artist Rembrandt Peale. James has a unique connection to Washington and our nation’s struggle for independence. He served in the Continental Army and fought under Washington at the Battle of the Brandywine, as well as at Trenton and Germantown. The nearby portrait of family patriarch Pierre Samuel du Pont, by Gilbert Stuart, hangs behind an ornate clock made in 1785 for Marie Antoinette. As you stroll through Nemours, you get the distinct feeling of not only walking through American history, but actually being part of it. A bust of the Marquis de Lafayette sits on a pedestal at the base of the grand staircase leading to the second floor. Just down the hall, you encounter the likeness of Rear Admiral Samuel Francis du Pont, who enlisted in the Navy at the age of 12, served in the MexicanAmerican War and led a successful attack on Port Royal, S.C., on Nov. 7, 1861. This allowed the Union to effectively blockade the southern coastline down along Georgia and Florida, a crucial part of the “Anaconda” strategy which successfully stopped supplies going to the Confederacy, helping the North to triumph in
The A.I. Du Pont Hospital for Children.
the Civil War. Every room at Nemours is a wonderland of artifacts, paintings and beautiful furnishings. The Conservatory (also tiled in black and white marble) is full of light; the nearby library holds thousands of volumes and a lovely fireplace which must have provided peace and serenity for the du Pont family and their many guests. The gardens fringing the estate are equally breathtaking, spanning more than 300 acres. Executive director John Rumm makes all visitors welcome with his easygoing style and great depth of knowledge of the family and its history. The site is elaborately decorated around Christmas, making it a very special place to visit. Adjacent to Nemours is another site highlighting Alfred’s passion: The A. I. du Pont Hospital for Children. When he passed away in 1935, Alfred wanted to make sure his success was shared with mankind, saying, “It has been my firm conviction throughout life that it is the duty of everyone in the world to do what is within his power to alleviate human suffering.”
The spectacular conservatory at Nemours.
Thus began what became the Nemours Foundation, which started the Alfred I. du Pont Institute in 1940 and later the renowned hospital. This institution offers topnotch pediatric medical care and research, helping tens of thousands of children for more than seven decades. The du Ponts have played a critical role not only in our country’s struggle for independence, but also the development of America’s government and economy. Numerous members of the family have served in public office, notably Pete du Pont, who was U.S. Representative from Delaware and later Governor of that state from 1977 to 1985. The du Pont estates, the A. I. du Pont Hospital for Children, Winterthur, Longwood
Gardens, Nemours and several other locations linked to the family showcase the ingenuity, hard work, dedication and extensive philanthropy of this esteemed clan, clearly one of America’s leading families.

Landhope Farms marks history of support for the Unionville Fair The Unionville Fair would likely not exist today without the support of county resident Dixon Stroud, his brothers Morris Stroud and Stephen Stroud, and the Landhope Farms company, based in Kennett Square. The land where the fair is held every year is part of a historic farm property owned by Stroud. He also started the Landhope Farms business in the late 1960s. The company is now experiencing a resurgence in the region, with a new store under construction in Oxford, and plans to expand even more. Landhope is again playing a large role in the Unionville Fair, which will be held from Oct. 5 to 7. Michael Bucklin is the Landhope Farms vice-president, and he spoke recently about the company’s longtime support of the Unionville Fair. Q.: Obviously, there’s a lot of history at the Willowdale location. What year did that first Landhope Farms store open, and how long has Landhope been involved with the fair? A.: In 1969, Dixon Stroud opened his first store at Willowdale. U-CF has been utilizing the Willowdale grounds for upwards of eight years. There are currently three Landhope store locations, but how many
Michael Bucklin, Landhope Farms vice-president
were there during the expansion period a few years ago? Dixon Stroud built up the Landhope brand to 16 operating locations between 1969 and 1999. The store count was decreased in the late 1990s, when all but a few stores were sold to Sunoco. One new store was built in 2001, which is located in Port Deposit, Md. A new Landhope Farms is under construction in Lower Oxford, with two more locations in land development. Landhope Farms is growing the brand once again. With the construction of the new Oxford location, does this signal a company-wide push to expand the brand? Yes! We felt that the time was right, with a strong history and strong operations team in place, to help grow the brand. What upgrades are planned for the Unionville
Fair grounds? Is Landhope sponsoring the costs of those upgrades? Dixon Stroud has sunk significant funds into the barn at Willowdale to help ensure future fair use, stabling for the Willowdale Steeplechase, as well as equipment storage for maintaining the grounds. U-CF was able to secure a grant to help cover a portion of those upgrades. When will visitors see the changes? In time for this year’s fair, or next year’s? The barn repairs are complete, and anyone that comes out to the fair will see the significant changes made, including a new roof, new sidewalls, barn doors, and even new cupolas. Since Landhope is rooted right here in Chester County, how important is its support of the Unionville Fair every year? Is the fair a billboard event for the company as far as publicity and community involvement? Agriculture is the backbone of Chester County, and open land is very close to Mr. Stroud’s heart. Supporting UCF and other nonprofits in the area by allowing the use of the grounds has always been a big part of Dixon Stroud’s vision for the property.

Avon Grove defense shines in 34-14 win By Richard L. Gaw Staff Writer
It is a near Herculean feat for any football team to upstage the pageantry of its school’s Homecoming celebration, but for the Avon Grove football team, their performance last Saturday afternoon topped all floats, marching bands and Homecoming courts that competed for the attention of the capacity crowd. Behind a superb defense, and an offense that revolved around passing and the rushing of two emerging sophomores, the
Red Devils upped their overall record to 3-2, with a 34-14 victory over West Chester East, played at Avon Grove High School. While it is still early in the season, Coach Harry O’Neil’s Red Devils have already appointed several playmakers to lead its offensive arsenal: quarterback JT McDonald, wide receiver Tyre Stead, and running backs Sean Glatts and Colby Riddell, all of whom were showcased during a 22-0 first half. With 9:37 left in the first quarter, McDonald tossed a 48-yard touchdown pass

to Stead, followed by a two-point conversion by Wyatt Kirby that staked Avon Grove to an 8-0 lead. “I was running a post pattern at about the 40-yard line, and when I broke in, my defender ran into me, so I had to bounce inside to get past him,” Stead said. “I was glad that JT gave me a little more time to be where I needed to be.” On Avon Grove’s next possession, McDonald marched his club from its own 31-yard line, highlighted by an 18-yard gain by Kirby. With 29 seconds remaining in the quarter, Glatts gained six of his game-leading 163 rushing yards with a touchdown run that jumped his team’s lead to 14-0. Deep into second quarter, Avon Grove tacked on eight more points, highlighted by a 53-yard run by Glatts, who set up a five-yard touchdown run by Riddell (72 yards in rushing) with 1:12 left in the first half, which was followed by a two-point conversion on a pass from McDonald to Max Paschall. While the Red Devils continued to rack up points, its hounding defense held East’s two leading ground-gainers in check. Heading into the game with a 3-1 overall record, East has been led this season by rushers Pierre Marchant and Kyle Cichanowsky, who had rushed for a combined total of 907 yards so far. After a 19-yard touchdown throw from quarterback Ryan Cassidy to wide receiver Michael Gray was called back on an offensive penalty, a pass to Gray got

the ball to the 8-yard line, but in a play that helped define the course of the game, defensive lineman Connor Long stopped Marchant for no gain on fourth-and-three. “We had a pretty good scheme on how to stop Marchant and Cichanowsky, going into the game,” O’Neill said. “I was a little worried about them, because between them, they have 900 yards in rushing this year, and on the outside, they also have Gray as a receiver. So we had to pick our poison: Are we going to stop the run or are we going to stop the pass? “We have been playing in a 40-front all year, but we came out in a 30-front today, and spread ourselves out, and ended up playing pretty well against their ground game.” Avon Grove extended its lead to 28-0 in the third quarter, set up by a punt fumble recovery by
Kyri Rossiter that gave the Red Devils the ball on the East 10-yard line, and led to a three-yard touchdown carry by Glatts with 5:14 left. After a a 54-yard touchdown carry by East’s John Wileczek got the Vikings on the board with 4:59 left in the third quarter, Avon Grove marched 60 yards down the field on runs by Riddell, Kirby, Glatts and Matt Walsh, leading to a three-yard TD run by Kirby that extended the Red Devils’ lead to 34-6. A 20-yard pass from Cassidy to Wileczek with 3:16 left in the game rounded out the game’s scoring. O’Neill called the victory his team’s best game so far, in a season that began with an earlyseason question mark when senior running back Dino Arhontakis was injured and removed from the Sept. 8 game against Unionville.
“In the last two games, Glatts has played a good amount and had a decent number of carries,” O’Neill said. “We worked Colby into the rotation a little more this week, so we could float two backs in and out. They’re two of the faster guys on the team. Sometimes we worry about their size [both Glatts and Riddell are 5-foot-8], but they can take hits, and they finish runs. They stepped up in a big win for us.” The truest test of Avon Grove’s season will come this Friday, when the Red Devils travel to Downingtown West to take on the 5-0 Whippets, who sit atop the Ches-Mont National Division. West Chester East, which fell to 3-2 overall, will host Downingtown East on Sept. 28. To contact Staff Writer Richard L. Gaw, email rgaw@chestercounty.com.

She received AllAmerican honors at the Division II NCAA Nationals. She was also an Academic All-American and Scholar Athlete of the Year for 2007 while at Indiana University of Pennsylvania. She has continued her athletic activities after college, placing

This year’s other inductees will be prof iled in upcoming issues of the Chester County Press.
Schilling scores 3 TDs to lead Unionville over Oxford By Steven Hoffman Staff Writer Teams that can block and run the ball on offense and tackle and stop the run on defense will win a lot of football games. Unionville is starting to play the kind of football that has made the team a perennial power in the Ches-Mont League, and a 48-12 victory over Oxford last Friday night suggests that Unionville is hitting its stride as the season reaches its midway point. Unionville took an early lead when running back Connor Schilling rumbled into the end zone from oneyard out, capping a 49-yard drive. Oxford blocked the extra point so it was 6-0 with 6:10 remaining in the first quarter. Schilling scored his second TD of the game, this time from 25 yards out, just a few minutes later, when Unionville once again capitalized on good field position. This touchdown drive covered 53 yards-all of it gained on the ground. A key to Unionville’s success was the offensive line, which was opening holes for the running backs. Michael Burns, Declan Boyle, Cole Sheehan, Austin Weeber, and Daniel Son were among the players helping Unionville win the battle in the trenches. Oxford had played consistently well on the way to a 3-1 start to the 2018 season, but for a period of time in the first quarter and second quarter against Unionville, Oxford struggled
to find its footing on offense, defense, and special teams. One issue was the tough loss to Penn Wood the previous Saturday, during which nine Oxford players were injured. While most of those players suited up for the game against Unionville, it’s a tough assignment to face the Indians on a short week. On the first play of the second quarter, Unionville increased its lead to 20-0 when Schilling hauled in a six-yard touchdown pass as the Indians once again capitalized on a short fieldthis time Unionville started on the 16 of Oxford after officials ruled that the knee of Oxford’s punter touched the ground before he got off the punt. Unionville then made it 27-0 when free safety Jeffrey Lang intercepted a pass and returned it 42 yards for a touchdown with 8:59 to play in the second quarter. Oxford played much better from that point on, as the Hornets’ defense started to resemble the one that helped the team win three out of its first four games. Oxford forced Unionville to turn the ball over on downs with 3:50 left to play in the second quarter. Oxford’s offense followed that up with its best drive of the game up to that point. Wide receiver Brandon McWilliams turned in two nice plays running the ball to move the chains for Oxford. In the third quarter, Oxford quarterback Brett Kochmansky threw a nice pass to McWilliams that
Unionville 13 14 8 13-48 Oxford 0 0 6 6-12 turned into a 57-yard play. Kochmansky, who was one of the players who was banged up against Penn Wood, helped his team reach the end zone with carries of 16 yards and then 3 yards for the score. It was 27-6. Two minutes later, Unionville answered back when running back Nick Schnaars scored on a 14-yard run right up the middle. Schilling then reached the end zone from two yards out to allow Unionville to complete the two-point conversion, making it 35-6. The Indians added to the lead about halfway through the fourth quarter when sophomore running back Wes Grim scored on a three-yard touchdown run. Oxford delivered a highlight when junior quarterback Thomas Repetz threw a beautiful pass over the middle to Justin Neskie for a 51-yard touchdown. It was 42-12. The Indians capped the scoring, and the 48-12 win, with a 70-yard drive that culminated when Kevin Henry scored on a two-yard run. The Indians will now take on Haverford in a home game at 7 p.m. on Friday night, while Oxford travels to Sun Valley for a 7 p.m. game on the same night.

EMILY MOTE DISTEFANO
JOHN O. HAGY, JR.
Emily Mote DiStefano, 88, of Kennett Square, passed away peacefully on Sept. 18. Emily was the beloved wife of the late Joseph A. DiStefano, Jr., with whom she shared 66 years of marriage. She was a graduate of Avon Grove High School and GoldeyBeacom College of Wilmington, Del. Born in West Grove in 1930, she was the daughter of the late Ernest and Gladys Roney Mote of Holly Heights in Chatham. After graduation from Goldey-Beacom College, she joined the E.I. DuPont De Nemours Company as an executive secretary. After retiring from DuPont, she worked with Rhodia, Inc., of West Chester, a subsidiary of the French firm, Rhone Poulenc. She then joined Paul Barr & Company of Kennett Square as an administrative assistant, where she remained for many years. Emily, with her husband Joe, enjoyed traveling both domestically and internationally. They especially enjoyed their annual trip to Hilton Head, S.C., with friends from around the Northeast. When not traveling, she supported the community as a volunteer. As a member of the Kennett Auxiliary to Southern Chester County Medical Center, in 1987, she received the Volunteer-of-the-Year Award in recognition of her efforts. Emily is survived by her sister, Margaret Hood; nieces Debbie Hood, Beverly Cloud, Helen Markland, Toni Marie, Nancy and Kathie DiStefano; and nephews Abner Cloud, Mike and Bill Singleton and their families. In addition to her husband and parents, she was predeceased by her sister, Betty Cloud; and brother, James Mote; and a sister-in-law, Alma L. DiStefano. A funeral was held Sept. 24. Interment was in St Patrick’s Cemetery. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the American Cancer Society, 1626 Locust Street, Philadelphia, PA 19103.

Executive director of Uptown! to retire at the end of the year Angela Scully, the executive director of Uptown! Knauer Performing Arts Center in West Chester, will retire from the theater at the end of this year. “Angela has been a driving force in the creation and launch of the theater since joining our team five years ago,” said Uptown! president Gary Green. When Sully began her post, the organization owned an abandoned armory and had little else than a bold idea and determined volunteers. Scully found their energy and
enthusiasm was infectious. After seeing that empty building for the first time, she said, “I was hooked! I knew for certain that a theater could come to West Chester and I wanted to be part of the process. My job would be to make their vision a reality.” The team began converting the armory into a theater while fundraising efforts continued and the community responded. The result is the Uptown!

joked that the Uptown! team was like a dog chasing a car with our dream to build a theater. Once we built it, could we ‘drive’ it? Angela provided the leadership we needed to drive this theater, and we can’t thank her enough.” The board of directors is conducting a nationwide search for the next executive director. “I consider this project a capstone of my professional life,” Scully said. “Being part of this startup called on everything I knew and then some. This journey has taught me so much.”
