Assumption Greek Orthodox Church hosts Memorial Day weekend festival, May 24-27 by Jennifer Grotpeter

Assumption Greek Orthodox Church, 1755 Des Peres Road in Des Peres, will once again welcome the public to its St. Louis County Greek Fest this Memorial Day weekend. Organizer Tom Reiss estimates between 15,000 and 20,000 people will attend over the four days of the event, depending on the weather. Guests can expect many delicious Hellenistic treats, from the familiar gyros to more exotic fare. “Most people who come, come for the food,” Reiss said. “Once they get there, they get sold on the whole Greek experience, and then they try new things, like the dolmades.” Dolmades are a mixture of ground beef, herbs and rice, stuffed into soft grape leaves, and topped with a lemony sauce. There will also be lamb shanks, roasted chicken in a bed of rice, shish kebobs, shrimp saganaki, flavorful pastitsio, Greek salads and handmade desserts with rich coffee. In the days preceding the festival, cont. p. 10A

Assumption Greek Orthodox Church, 1755 Des Peres Road in Des Peres, will feature live Greek music and dancing.

Investigations Continue Into Cause Of April 18 Webster High Roof Fire by Alice Dunaway

Area firefighters were called to Webster Groves High School on Saturday, May 18, after a fire broke out on the roof of the school’s new 106,350-square-foot addition, located at the north end of the campus. The fire, which started around 1:45 p.m., was contained within 15 minutes of firefighters arriving on the scene. Smoke could be seen billowing from the building from miles away. Residents of a neighboring apartment complex were the first to call firefighters Firefighters from Webster Groves, Shrewsbury, Clayton, Ladue, Glendale and Rock Hill were on the scene. Officials have not determined the origin of the fire, but believe it could have started in the wiring of the

school’s rooftop solar panels. Fewer than half of the solar panels were affected by the blaze, according to fire officials. “It really did not penetrate the roof. It was mainly the solar panels and the covering of the roof that burned,” said Webster Groves Assistant Fire Chief John Anderson. Anderson said the building was locked and no one was in it at the time of the fire. A door to the building was forced open by firefighters to gain entry. According to Webster Groves School District Community Relations Director Cathy Vespereny, the school sustained some water damage while the fire was doused. The damage is contained to one classroom and a hallway.

“When the firefighters were squirting water, some of it leaked into one classroom,” Vespereny said. “We’ve closed off that area and any students who were going to take a final in that room were moved to another room in the building.” Vespereny said a temporary roof membrane has been installed, but she emphasized that the roof is structurally sound. The solar panels at the high school are part of a program that allows students to check energy usage in real time. Vespereny said the school district’s insurance company, along with fire officials, will continue to investigate the cause of the fire.

HOW TO REACH US

Mothers Of Three: Stressed Or Most Stressed? We shall begin today with a math problem. Let’s say a mother has three children. For the past nine months, two of them have been away at college. One has now moved home for the summer. Question: Is this mother’s stress level greater than, less than or equal to what it was before her children left? Hint: This is a trick question. I failed to mention that the one who came home – let’s call him “Sam Bufe” – produces the daily laundry equivalent of approximately five standard children. This does not include the inventory of unwashed winter clothing he brought with him OR the suitcase full of items he had successfully quarantined since early April for bonfire-related reasons. All told, this mother now has at least seven children (I am speaking purely in the laundry sense.) Eight, if you count dirty dishes. The correct answer to the question above, therefore, is: the mother’s stress level is LESS THAN it was before.

That is, of course, unless you happen to skate over your other shoe’s shoestring, causing you to trip and fall on the basement floor. In that situation, you’d better hope you aren’t wearing your Ten Commandments charm bracelet (a gift from you-know-who), in which case the gold-plated “Thou Shalt Not Kill” charm could come dangerously close to severing the artery in your wrist. Which reminds me of the warning label the Consumer Product Safety Commission would affix to these bracelets, had I told my mother what happened: May cause wearer to take the name of the Lord thy God in vain. My point is, maybe the survey got it right. Maybe today’s mothers of three really are more stressed than everybody else. After all, Sam’s older brother and his laundry will soon be here for a week. You do the math.

This, incidentally, is not MY opinion. It is the finding of a new Today show survey that clearly involved neither the Octomom, nor the New Jersey mother with the tanning booth addiction. It claims that the most stressed mothers are those with three children – no more, no less. Look, I didn’t believe it, either. Until I thought back to my own childhood. You see, I am one of eight kids (I am speaking now in the literal sense). And I don’t remember it being stressful for my mother at all. Of course, she had TWO washing machines. So, you know, that right there cut her child-rearing responsibilities in half. Plus, mothers in big families plan ahead to avert problems. My mother, for example, required my sisters and I to share a single pair of roller skates. I mean that literally. We could each wear only one skate at a time. This of course made skating less fun. But, according to my mother, much safer.

City Looks To Future Along Commercial Areas Planners focus on 2 areas for possible redevelopment by Dennis Hannon

Kirkwood could boost tax revenues by nearly $1.7 million by sponsoring a pair of commercial redevelopment projects on opposite ends of Kirkwood Road, according to a consultant’s study commissioned by the city council. The study was done by PGAV Planners of St. Louis. The larger of the two study areas, at the northern end of the city, has been losing sales at a rate of nearly 6 percent a year for the past three years, according to data reported by PGAV. The area stretches along Manchester Road from North Clay Avenue to North Tay-

lor, and east in a narrow corridor along Kirkwood Road to Wilson Avenue. The second area in the study, on the south end of town, has done worse, losing sales at a pace exceeding 18 percent a year, PGAV said. The area comprises 19.4 acres extending east of Kirkwood Road to South Fillmore Avenue, and south from Monroe Avenue to a jagged boundary that now extends south of Bouyer Lane. With the right redevelopment, retail sales along the Kirkwood/Manchester study area might soar from the current $5.3 million a year to about $28 million, the study reported. Sales and property tax revenues would rise by more than 300 percent, from the current $507,000 to more than $1.6 million, according to the report. In the eastern study area, redevelopment also could push sales up by a

factor of three – from about $1.9 million a year to more than $5.7 million, the study said. Sales and real estate tax revenue would jump from the current $223,000 to about $740,000, according to projections in the study PGAV presented its findings May 16 at a work session of the city council. The sales tax revenue projections represented receipts that would be shared by Kirkwood and St. Louis County. Likewise, the estimates for real estate tax receipts would be shared among various jurisdictions, of which the city is a relatively minor participant. Mayor Art McDonnell greeted the study positively, though he noted that “it’s all very premature at the moment … It’s very important to the city to be able to work for something that is going cont. p. 9A

All Kirkwood Students To Receive iPad Minis Cost of iPads for all students comes in at $1.78 million by Jaime Mowers

Every student in the Kirkwood School District is one step closer to having an iPad for personalized learning. The Kirkwood School Board on Monday approved the first phase of a two-year rollout plan to provide all students with an iPad by January 2015. The first phase will begin in August with the iPads being distributed to students in fifth, eighth and ninth grades. The cost for the first phase is $325,000. The estimated total cost of providing iPads to all students is $1.78 million, which includes the cost of the iPad Mini, a protective case and basic apps for each student.

The second phase of the rollout will begin in January 2014 and provide the iPad Minis to students in third, fourth, sixth and seventh grades. In August 2014, the third phase begins in grades third, eleventh and twelfth. The final phase will be completed with students in kindergarten, first and second grades in January 2015. All students in grades three through 12 will be allowed to take their iPad home to extend their learning beyond the classroom. The district’s Technology Leadership Group recently implemented a sixweek pilot program that put the iPad Mini in the hands of several teachers and roughly 400 students for instructional use at school and at home. Chris Raeker, assistant superintendent of curriculum and instruction for the district, reported that significant data was collected during the six-week period from participating teachers, stu-

dents and parents – and the response was overwhelmingly positive. “As with any new learning endeavor there were some bumps along the way, but overall the responses by all three groups provided a strong indication that the use of one-to-one technology with the iPad Mini has the potential to significantly and positively impact teaching and learning in Kirkwood,” she said, adding that teachers, students and parents reported several benefits of using the iPad Mini. Teachers said students are learning how to use the iPad apps to do research, take notes, organize information and collaborate with each other. Kirkwood School District Superintendent Tom Williams is embracing the use of the iPads. “We are excited about the educational opportunities this new instructional tool provides to our students and teachers,” he said.

City To Conduct Poll On Replacing Aging Community Center by Dennis Hannon

Kirkwood soon will begin polling its citizens by mail on their opinion of the city’s community center as a first step toward replacing the 47-year old facility. The city council approved $13,100 at its May 16 meeting to pay Leisure Vision, a parks and recreation consulting company from Olathe, Kan., to conduct the survey. The company was selected by the community center study committee, consisting of members of the city park board and several “citizens at large,” Parks Director Murray Pounds reported. Replacement of the community center is included as a potential project in the city’s strategic plan, and was among the projects listed in Mayor Art McDonnell’s campaign literature during his successful run for a second term. “When we get all the information back, we’re going to analyze it and make a decision about where to go next,” McDonnell said. “The question is: How do you pay for it?” The city charged Leisure Vision with collecting at least 500 responses. McDonnell said the city expects the firm’s report sometime in late August.

New Sanitation Trucks In other action, the council approved $415,514 first-year payment in a lease/purchase agreement for a new fleet of sanitation trucks. The new trucks will be in service by September, at which time the existing fleet will be sold, Public Works Director Todd Rehg said. The city will acquire five trucks equipped to hoist the carts used for residential collections, and four trucks equipped with rear-loading gear for commercial accounts. The city has agreed to a three-year lease/ purchase for the commercial trucks and a five-year lease/purchase for the residential trucks, at a total cost of about $1.7 million, including interest.

Eyebrows Raised Over County Charges To Webster Library Part of consortium, WG library billed $35,000 in 2012 by Mary Shapiro

Library fines tend to be easy on the pocketbook, but the Webster Groves Public Library is a bit taken back by the fees it owes the St. Louis County Library. The Webster library, which is a part of the Municipal Library Consortium of St. Louis County (MLC), is wondering if it should continue a reciprocity agreement with the St. Louis County Library system in light of increasing fees. The MLC consists of nine community libraries including Webster Groves, Kirkwood, Maplewood, Brentwood, Rock Hill, Valley Park, University City, Richmond Heights and Ferguson. While MLC cities have a reciprocal lending arrangement with St. Louis

County Library allowing residents of those cities to obtain a county library card at no charge to the resident, those MLC cities pay a fee when an MLC resident checks out a book or DVD or other item from a county library. The opposite also applies – the county library pays a fee to the MLC when a county resident with a no-cost card from an MLC library checks out an item there. The Webster library pays 25 cents for every item checked out at a county library or renewed by a Webster Groves resident. Likewise, the Webster library charges 25 cents to the county for every item checked out by a county resident. At the end of each year a tally is made and the net difference in payments is charged in a bill to whichever library where patrons have borrowed more from the other library. “In 2012, the Webster Groves Library paid the St. Louis County Library $31,428.50 for the reciprocity program, with the county providing no documentation on users – they just

said we owed them this amount,” Webster Groves City Council member Debi Salberg said, noting that amount was up from the county library’s bill to the Webster Groves Library for 2011 of $25,055. The total cost paid by the Webster Groves Library for the years 2008 through 2012 was $98,202.50, added Salberg, who is the city’s liaison to the independent Webster Groves Library board. “When our library building was closed (for renovations last year) with a temporary location being used, I guess you could argue that more of our residents were using the county libraries, such as people with little kids who might have been checking out a lot more books at one time,” she continued. “But the fees from the county library are getting to where some MLC librarians are talking about wanting to cancel the reciprocal agreement with the county.” Webster Groves City Council member Kathy Hart said she would like to

see documentation from the county because the fee was so much higher this year. Webster Groves City Attorney Helmut Starr said the county library has a bar scan system and wondered whether they were making sure every transaction billed to the Webster library was accurate. Salberg said the $31,000 “is equivalent to a whole lot of new materials the Webster Groves Library could otherwise be acquiring.” Webster Groves Library Director Tom Cooper sent a May 14 letter to Webster Groves Mayor Gerry Welch expressing his concerns, noting there was talk among the Municipal Library Consortium directors of ending the arrangement with the St. Louis County Library. “In the past few years, the imbalance (in fees) has been growing rapidly in favor of St. Louis County Library,” he wrote. “These jumps in numbers do not mirror our own circulation figures cont. p. 9A

Called To Be Good Stewards Of All Creation More and more scientific evidence becoming available, makes it clear that all of us need to take responsibilities in turning around the damaging effects of climate change on our planet Earth. Scientists agree that significant and immediate action is needed if we wish to avoid the worst effects: •Increasingly severe weather •Rising sea levels •Melting glaciers and ice caps •Record rates of extinctions

•Droughts and Floods Other changes will transform our planet into a more hostile place. We must take action to transition our nation to more sustainable energy and a much smaller carbon footprint. We need stricter emissions standards for fossil fuels. We need to further develop cleaner energy, stop subsidizing fossil fuel industries (including tar sands oil, “fracking” of oil and natural gas and coal.

As a person of faith, I believe we are called to be good stewards of all creation and to live so that the earth will be sustainable for a future beyond us. Already many individuals and groups are working within our community, including efforts within my local faith community. But we need strong laws to enable systemic transformation of our energy infrastructure. Helen Davis Webster Groves

Supports Newspaper As Act Of Citizenship Thank you for running the letter from Donna Day of Rock Hill in the May 17 issue of the WKT. Heretofore, I slowed down while driving through Rock Hill on Manchester Road to assure my accelerator would not bring my vehicle’s speed to the attention of those charged to protect the public’s safety. Like the shaping variables of our lives taken for granted, I fleetingly traveled by without much regard for the terrain holding that portion of Route 100. After reading Ms. Day’s detailed, picturesque account of the challenges and charms of a bygone era in Rock Hill, I am inspired to slow down — to ponder what might have been many decades

back and how today’s elders (with all the respect that word deserves) were shaped by that time and place. I hope I won’t get ticketed for rolling too slowly on Manchester Road when I creatively reminisce about a community I had not before experienced or gave much thought beyond my speedometer. Whether the Book House remains is not of my deciding, but Ms. Day’s letter reminded me of a fate I can help determine. The WKT, for more than three decades, has been a significant weekly feature in my life. When I see ignored or rain-soaked newspapers on driveways, I am saddened, as its content is important for nurturing a connected, dynamic, healthy region. Therefore, I will make a donation

to support the paper as an act of good citizenship! (My name was omitted from the recent list of WKT underwriters — a result of my neglected steps for prompt action.) Someday, I’ll wax nostalgic and tell how the factors shaping my community and my choices as a citizen and consumer once arrived in red plastic sleeves. Even if (for better or worse) paper versions go the way of a similar “comfortable era” to use Ms. Day’s phrase, efforts of local-level journalists require our attention and citizen support. Thank you for your service. Marsha K. Clark Des Peres

Excessive Trail Building Wreaks Havoc On Nature What’s the most invasive species? No, not bush honeysuckle. Not euonymus. Not even kudzu. It’s us. We’re the worst. Because we are humans, we have to worm our way into every square foot of the planet, and habitat loss is the biggest threat to all other species. We build trails to trails, trails on top of trails. Somebody says a trail is no good, another has to replace it. And another. And another. We pave along streams and rivers, the most crucial wildlife corridors, and then complain

when there are deer in our backyards. We chop down trees and bulldoze wildflowers so we can “enjoy nature.” We pave both sides of a river. Highways, shopping malls, sprawl ... nope, not enough. There’s still some nature left – let’s shovel it or pave it! We need to realize that trails are not nature. Trails destroy nature. Every trail steals habitat from species that are already pushed to the margins. There is no “empty space” in nature. Every trail steals habitat from species that are already pushed to the

margins. Excessive trail building through nature areas makes us parasites destroying the host, ruining the very assets we come to see. Please tell park planners and trail builders to put the brakes on “wreck-reation.” Let our motto be: “First do no harm.” For how we treat nature here reflects our philosophy for the planet. And as Thoreau said, “In wilderness is the salvation of the world.” Gwyn Wahlmann Kirkwood

Lawmakers Up Funding For Alzheimer’s Services I would like to thank Rep. Rick Stream and Rep. Jeanne Kirkton for their compassionate and bipartisan work on the State Budget Committee. They played a key role in securing additional funding for Alzheimer’s Service Grants to provide support to families caring for a loved one at home. Our representatives clearly grasp the arduous demands of caregiving, and realize the importance of respite services. Not only is this the right thing to do

for the increasing number of families stricken by the demands of caregiving, but also the fiscally responsible thing to do for our state. Alzheimer’s Service Grants save tax dollars by helping families keep their loved ones at home, delaying nursing home placement. Missouri spends more than $150 million annually in Medicaid dollars to care for people with dementia in nursing homes. An investment in respite assistance could potentially save Missouri mil-

lions in Medicaid nursing home costs. Thank you again for recognizing the epidemic proportions of Alzheimer’s, and assisting families while attempting to stop this disease from bankrupting our state. If any of your readers are in need of support they can call the Alzheimer’s Association 24/7 Helpline, at 800.272.3900 or visit alz.org/stl.

Urges Citizens To Stand Up Against The NRA What has happened to Americans? Where is that desire to speak up and make our politicians accountable? Maybe because I grew up in the ’60s when people made their feelings known by rallies or sit-ins and changed this country, I am feeling frustrated. We are “the people” and our wishes and needs should be addressed – not the ones of

the lobbyists or huge PACS. The NRA should not be running this country, individual voters should. When I read that the NRA has declared that they will “stand and fight,” I hope that the many millions of people who are opposed to this group dictating to our politicians will stand up also. When Sen. Blunt voted in a manner

contrary to the wishes of the people he was elected to represent, I sent him a letter voicing my disappointment. I said that I would remember this on voting day. I hope many others will do so also. Sheila Brady Kirkwood

Thanks For Corrigan’s “Drums Of War — Again” Congratulations to Don Corrigan for his excellent editorial “Drums of War — Again” in the May 3 issue off the Times. If memory serves, it was in his farewell speech that President Eisenhower said, “Beware the military-industrial complex.” How right he was. As a Christian American, I am thoroughly ashamed of all the wars the U.S. has been involved in beginning with Vietnam. Untold thousands of defenseless civilians have been maimed and killed by U.S. weapons. I am also thoroughly disgusted by the U.S. government giving “aid” to some foreign countries so they can buy weapons from the U.S. What a sick joke. No wonder the U.S. has a massive national debt with spending programs like this. I’d like to see this editorial republished on the front page so it is seen by thousands of readers. I also think it would be wonderful if the editorial was sent to President Obama and every member of Congress. Thank you for highlighting the maiming of Tony Porta. There’s something very wrong about the maiming and killing of American soldiers overseas and at the same time officialdom being lax about the thousands of foreigners entering the U.S. legally and illegally. So much for Homeland Security. Joy Renisch Sappington

Karma’s Gonna Get You This is an open letter to the driver of the vehicle who sideswiped my son’s parked vehicle in the 300 block of Newport Avenue late Friday, early Saturday on May 10 or 11. Not only did you do over $1,000 in damages to his vehicle, you did not stop, did not contact the police, and did not leave any contact information or insurance information. Shame on you! There is no doubt damage to your own vehicle, and there is no way that you could have not realized that you damaged someone else’s property. What a wondrous graduation gift to my son. Instead of looking forward to his “senior week” before graduation night, he is contending with fixing all of the damages that you caused and paying for all of it out of pocket. If there is such a thing as karma, may it be 10-fold back in your direction. Kathy Lorino Webster Groves

Plug In. Turn On! by Dwight Bitikofer

bitikofer@timesnewspapers.com

A month ago, I bought a new printer to use with my home computer and my laptop. The old printer was slow and uncertain and its print cartridges cost nearly $100. I thought my biggest challenge with the new printer would be to figure out which ports to plug where. My son was over one Sunday so we unboxed it to set it up. Uh-oh. It had a program disk. And the disk had on it system requirements. And the computers at home did not meet those requirements. We tried anyway. But nothing. On Mother’s Day weekend, my daughter was home. Her laptop had the necessary system requirements. We finally figured out how to put in the ink cartridges and where to load paper. (The graphics were not very helpful. The only manual (in several languages) was for trouble-shooting, but no basics about setting up the printer). She programmed and re-programmed. I lost patience and went downstairs to tend to other matters and then fell asleep in the recliner. “Did you get the printer to work?” I asked over French toast the next morning. “No,” she said. “I spent an hour and then gave up.” So, instead of an unreliable old printer, I have a shiny, new printer that doesn’t work with our computers or maybe doesn’t work at all. Emma will be home this summer and will try again. Maybe we have to take it back to the computer store. You know, there used to be some great technology around. You buy an appliance and plug it in. It worked! If tech companies would rediscover simplicity and universality, we maybe

wouldn’t even miss the lack of simple, step-by-step instructions on a piece of paper in English. They could make a lot of money by rediscovering simplicity. It would take user-friendly to a whole new level. Cars are that way now, too. A friend just bought a new Ford SUV. He was confounded by tasks that were once easy. “It took me 38 minutes to figure out how to turn the lights off,” he complained. A couple of years ago I rented a Nissan Altima. It took me about 15 minutes to figure out how to start it. It had a keyless ignition and no available owner’s manual. Once upon a time you could turn a key and your vehicle would start right up. Once upon a time, you could turn, pull or toggle a switch and your lights would come on. You could push or toggle and the lights would go off. How easy and wonderful if we could rediscover analog! Technology does amazing things. But how much more amazing would it be if we made technology universally intuitive and easy to use! And then provided redundant instructions for we dullards who might still need some help. Meanwhile, there’s probably an available business opportunity out there for some young tekkies who could go around and set up computers, printers, TV’s, hand-held devices and other programmable electronics for old codgers like me. I want a plug-in, a key, an off-on switch – and then full functionality. Are those qualities really so hard to achieve?

Webster Designer Tackles Shakespeare’s “Twelfth Night” Dottie Marshall Englis’ creations debut May 24 at Shakespeare Festival in Forest Park by Fran Mannino

What do a Hapsburg princess, Queen Victoria and members of a Victorian men’s club have in common? They were all inspiration for designer Dorothy (Dottie) Marshall Englis as she envisioned costumes for this summer’s Shakespeare Festival St. Louis production of “Twelfth Night.” Englis, chair of the Conservatory of Theatre Arts at Webster University and a longtime Webster Groves resident, has been designing costumes for the theater for many years. This will be her fourth production for Shakespeare Festival St. Louis, and she plans to be in the seats on May 24 for opening night. “I did ‘Romeo and Juliet’ for the inaugural season of the festival,” said Englis. “We didn’t know if anyone would come. Now it’s become this amazing event.” Englis grew up in Rhode Island and learned to sew when she was in junior high. She graduated from Tufts University with a double major in theater and English, thinking she could never make a living on theater work alone. Then she received a nudge from a trusted teacher. “He said, ‘Costumes come easy to you. You should pursue that,’” said Englis. And pursue it she did. After earning an MFA in costume design at Carnegie Mellon University, Englis taught for two years at Tulane before embarking on a decades-long career with Webster University. “Costumes touch everything I love,” she said. “Clothes, history, art. I love the characters.” Englis credits Webster University and her family with the support she needs to teach, fulfill her duties as university department head, and take on costume design opportunities. “I have to keep designing so my students trust that I know what I’m doing, and at the same time I need to remain sympathetic to what they’re going through,” she said. “Webster’s been very good to me. They really support working artists.” “Twelfth Night” “Twelfth Night” tells the tale of shipwreck survivors Viola and Sebastian, a twin brother and sister

The ensuing story of mistaken identity and unrequited love has made “Twelfth Night” one of Shakespeare’s most beloved comedies. Shakespeare’s play is thought to have been performed for the first time in 1602, in observance of the end of the Christmas season. Costumes, practical jokes, music and food are all part of a traditional Twelfth Night celebration. The “Twelfth Night” story takes place in the city of Illyria, at the seaside, and the set reflects that, with a Mediterranean-style two-story building and a huge, 20-foot moon. “Illyria is a fantasy place where almost anything can happen,” said Englis. She said she borrowed liberally from the early 1800s in designing costumes for the show. “I was trying to find a period where both the men and the women looked romantic,” she said. “There’s a lot of love at first sight in this show. I wanted the men to look handsome and dashing.” Englis drew inspiration for the character Olivia by researching clothing worn by a Hapsburg princess. Since Olivia spends almost half of the play in mourning, Englis also took a cue from the mourning garments worn by Queen Victoria. The men’s clothing has a military flair to it, with rich colors and gold

braiding and buttons. Some of the characters, however, spend time in more ignoble pursuits. “Olivia’s uncle, Sir Toby, and some of his men are just drunk all of the time,” said Englis. For those characters, she envisioned men in tuxedos in a Victorian club who had imbibed too much. Designing for Outdoor Theater Creating costumes for actors who will be performing outdoors presents some unique challenges, said Englis, who has designed costumes for the Shakespeare Festival’s productions of “Romeo and Juliet,” “Julius Caesar” and “Hamlet.” “People think costumes can be put together in a flimsy way, but costumes have to be ‘tank’ clothing,” she said. “They wear them over and over again for a month.” Because St. Louis in the summer can be sweltering, Englis chose white canvas pants for the men and nice white shirts that will be presentable if the jackets need to be removed. The women’s costumes are made from lightweight fabric. “When you’re designing for the park you have a different frame of reference,” said Englis. “The audience is closer, so you need to put more detail on them. From far away in the park what most of the audience sees is color and silhouette. Detail shows up as

Shakespeare Festival Firsts Shakespeare Festival St. Louis is unveiling a host of innovative ideas this year with its production of “Twelfth Night.” Groundling seating by the stage, hanging lanterns and unique dining opportunities will establish a festive atmosphere for this year’s spectators. For the first time ever, the music will be performed live, with the actors playing instruments on stage. Bring a lawn chair or blanket to Shakespeare Glen, located just east of Art Hill in Forest Park. There are a limited number of rental seats available, first come, first served. Performances of “Twelfth Night” begin at 8 p.m. nightly, May 24 through June 16 (excluding Tuesdays). Pre-show activities include free preperformance backstage tours that begin in front of the stage and nightly entertainment at 6:30 p.m. The pre-show will include a 20minute adaptation of “Twelfth Night,” which will introduce the characters and plot; musicians, dancers, singers and jugglers; plus a craft table for kids. For more information on “Twelfth Night” and all things new this year, visit www.sfstl.com.

texture, and shape is critical. “As a costume designer you have to have an internal zoom lens,” she said. “It’s like a mosaic; you really have to go from macro to mini.” Once the actors take the stage, Englis’ job will come to an end. “It’s funny,” she said. “Up until opening night I’m spending a lot of my time looking at hemlines. It’s hard to divorce yourself from that level of minutiae. I sit back and remember why I wanted to do the show.”

Webster Groves Library from page 4A

and we have not seen major changes in our patrons’ use of our services. In reviewing the data, a few of our (MLC) libraries, because of their size or geographic location, are the heaviest net borrowers from St. Louis County and the open-ended expense is a challenge.” MLC libraries then sent a letter to Charles Pace, director of the St. Louis County Library, asking if they could renegotiate the reciprocity contract to specify that no library would be indebted to pay more than five percent of its total materials budget in compensation. Such a cap would allow for libraries to enter their fiscal years with an estimate for the cost of this valuable service. That proposal was rejected and no counter-offer was suggested. Not Just In Webster The situation doesn’t just affect Webster Groves. Rock Hill Library’s payments to the county library went from $716.75 in 2011 to $1,523.25 in 2012. Kirkwood, on the other hand, received a payment from the county library of $5,727.75 in 2011, but that went down to $327.25 in 2012. The reciprocal arrangements were instituted more than a decade ago as a way to better serve area residents, Cooper wrote, and as a way to “remove some of the ‘balkanization’ of St. Louis County services,” and it had worked

well, as the sheer number of residents who hold cards at more than one library system attest. But Cooper also wrote that “we do not believe it was meant as a means for one library system to enhance its revenues at the expense of another.” “To put what he (Cooper) mentions in the letter into perspective, the 2012-2013 budget for library materials is $106,850, and the amount paid to the county library is $31,348.50 – or 29 percent of the amount budgeted for new library materials,” Salberg said. She said part of the problem is Webster Groves residents use county library services because they are unaware of how nice the Webster Groves Library is. “With the recent expansion, there is so much more space for library patrons, the collection is much better accessed, the children’s section has been greatly expanded and many more activities have been added,” she said. In addition, there is Wi-Fi available throughout the building as well as numerous computers available for public use, Salberg said. “Another problem is that residents do not know the cumulative cost to the Webster Groves Library of the heavy use of the county library,” Salberg said. “Information regarding this cost to Webster Groves Library patrons might help reduce this imbalance.”

to be a positive development for the corner of Kirkwood and Manchester roads and in the area near Einstein Bagels (338 S. Kirkwood Road).” Commissioning the study was “one of those things where we’re trying to get ahead of the ballgame; trying to make sure we have some sort of conceptual (guide) to help make sure development happens,” McDonnell said. Council Member Gina Jaksetic said she views the projections in the study – both of the likely costs and the potential benefits – with considerable caution. She noted that a number of residential units are included in PGAV’s conceptual map of the Kirkwood/Manchester redevelopment area, which could portend a zoning fight. Most of the residential units in the proposed area are rental units, owned by the same parties who hold the commercial real estate that would be included in the redevelopment, Jaksetic observed. “They might not mind (seeing a redevelopment), but the ones (property owners) behind them might mind,” she said. The eastern study area represents “an incredible development opportunity,” said PGAV, but for the fact that it is dominated by two large parcels bearing costly encumbrances. One is the 8.8-acre site occupied by the city Public Works Department, which would be extremely expensive to relocate, even if a suitable site could be found. The other is a 3.4-acre vacant lot at Monroe and Taylor avenues, which

would be prime commercial space had the Greentree Community Church not purchased it in December with the intention of building a house of worship. Michael Porter, business manager for Greentree Church, said the organization has been “a good citizen of the Kirkwood community and would listen to anything they have to say, that they have to offer, or any proposal that they have, but as of now we’re in the middle of planning to build church there that would be the home of our church.” The PGAV study lists the value of the Greentree lot at about $1.64 million. Several council members said an idea is afoot to offer the church a swap for a package of cash and the northeast corner of the public works grounds at Monroe and South Fillmore avenues. But that could be a tough sell, Jaksetic and Council Member Gerry Biedenstein observed, since the church’s lot is much larger and also situated next door it its business office at Monroe and Taylor. Furthermore, the northeast corner of the public works grounds contains a derelict factory building, and for a decade prior to 2011 was kept closed on order of the Missouri Department of Natural Resources due to suspected contamination, first from asbestos and later from oil. Biedenstein characterizes the twopart plan as “extreme,” regardless of its highly preliminary stage of development. “I wish the mayor had taken an approach to consult the residents that live up in that (the Manchester/Kirkwood Road) area,” he said.

The Greek Fest invites the public to “Experience a taste of Greece without the airfare.”

from page 1A women of the congregation take turns in the Assumption kitchen, cooking up different cookie and pastry recipes. They prepare over 1,500 boxes of Greek delicacies for visitors to purchase and take home, plus innumerable trays of sticky, warm baklava, dripping with honey to serve up fresh. One of the most popular indulgences, according to Reiss, is the baklava sundae. “We take the crumbs from the baklava pans, with the filo, nuts and honey, and pour them over vanilla ice cream,” he said. “It’s a big seller on a hot day!” Art Liyeos, chairman of the festival, agrees that visitors come for the food. “We pride ourselves on the quality and authenticity of our food,” he said. There will also be genuine Greek entertainment every day of the festival. Live music will get the crowd moving, and traditional dancers will wow guests with their colorful costumes and intricate footwork. “We have youth and junior adult dance groups from the church performing almost every hour,” said Reiss. Liyeos said there are many additional reasons to attend the event. “We have travelogues and DVDs playing so that people can see what Greece is all about and what it looks like,” he said. “We also have tours of

May 24 Is National Heat Awareness Day Experts offer summer heat safety tips by Don Corrigan

month of July and into August. “Heat waves absolutely pose the most deadly weather,” said Dunman. “If we have three consecutive days when the heat index is at 110, we will have the Community Center open as a cooling center. “Last year the county opened up centers as well, including at their library in Oakland,” Dunman said. “We always post what shelters are available on our Kirkwood website.” St. Louis County officials opened up two large facilities as cooling centers in South County because of extreme heat in 2012. The locations were at the Kennedy Recreation Complex, 6050 Wells Road and South County Health Center, 4580 S. Lindbergh Blvd. As the season for intense heat approaches, St. Louis County Health and Wellness officials say cooling shelters will once again be available when necessary.

During a week of killer tornadoes and an announcement by Gov. Jay Nixon of help for state flood victims, it might seem peculiar to declare May 24 as “National Heat Awareness Day.” Jim Kramper of the St. Louis Weather Service doesn’t think so. “Yes, this day was usually held later in the year, but since Memorial Day weekend is considered the traditional start of the summer, it makes sense to go along with what has become a national day,” said Kramper, warning coordination meteorologist for the St. Louis office of the National Weather Service. “We have been spreading the word about heat safety in Missouri for many years,” added Kramper. “After last year’s record heat, this has added relevance. We are using this day to inform the public about excessive heat and how to deal with it.” Summer 2012 was painful and deadly. The 52 heat-related deaths in Missouri proved to be the most for any year in this new century. Despite mounting casualties from fierce tornadic storms in recent years, heat remains the number one weather-related killer in the U.S., resulting in hundreds of fatalities each year. Heat shelters for refuge from 2012’s extreme temperatures were opened to the public from Kirkwood to Fenton, from North County to St. Louis to South County. “I am so glad the Weather Bureau is having a heat awareness day,” said Christian Dunman, safety manager and emergency management director for Kirkwood. “The past two summers we’ve had intense heat, and I am afraid there is more coming. People need to know we are prepared with help and resources.” Kirkwood opened up a Community Center cooling shelter on June 28 as temperatures soared to 108 degrees. Highs stayed at 100 or above through July 7, 2012, with a string of heat advisories issued throughout the

Toll on Plants, Wildlife The Summer of 2012 with its heat and drought conditions also took a toll on plants and wildlife. Gardens withered and trees shed their leaves. The damage to many trees was both immediate and long-term. In Sunset Hills, a number of large trees, some with trunks more than 2-feet wide, were determined to be dead and deemed hazardous. They were removed by city workers. In many cases, the extent of tree loss from 2012’s brutal summer heat is only now becoming apparent. “We have had quite a few trees that have had to be cut down since the first of the year,” said Bryson Baker, public works director for Sunset Hills. “Last summer’s heat was hard on trees and bushes. We’re taking trees down along city right-of-ways because they present a hazard when they die. “I have an evergreen in my own backyard that has died, and I would guess that’s from the summer heat as well,” Bryson added.

Last year’s record heat took its toll on this asphalt worker. There were 52 heatrelated deaths in Missouri in 2012. July 2012 file photo

Kirkwood lost one of its historic, arbor gems in 2012 when a 145-foot Sugarberry Tree succumbed to heat and drought. The more than 150-yearold Missouri State Champion Tree, which had endured a lightning strike and a close shave with a rotor from a helicopter, simply broke apart. Although the severe heat wave of 2012 was one for the record books, it was not unprecedented. The five hottest years previously were 1901, 1934, 1936, 1954 and 1980. With climate change, most climatologists expect more hot spells in the future. The heat waves of 1930, 1934 and 1936 in the St. Louis region were associated with the Dust Bowl and climate change brought about by poor farming practices in the Great Plains. An intense 1952 heat wave caused power outages in Kirkwood and the electric company asked residents to resist round-the-clock use of fans. Also during that 1952 heat wave, the Post-Dispatch reported that seven hauling horses collapsed from the heat in downtown. One died, but six were reportedly revived by the administering of half-pints of rum. Health experts now note that neither horse nor human should be given alcohol in cases of heat exhaustion.

tion or heat-related illness include headaches, chills, nausea, fainting, vomiting and dehydration. On National Heat Awareness Day, health officials offer these safety tips: • Turn on the air conditioning to cool the air. This may seem obvious, but people often try to save money by using fans instead of air conditioning. As temperatures rise above 95 degrees, fans can actually heat a room by circulating the hot air. • Drink plenty of cool, non-alcoholic beverages, especially those that do not contain sugar or caffeine. • Spend as little time as possible in the sun and keep your activity level to a minimum. • Wear loose-fitting, lightweight, light-colored clothing. • Eat light, easily-digested foods and avoid hot, heavy, or greasy meals. Do not leave food unrefrigerated. • Take care of those who might not be aware of the danger or able to react accordingly – especially young children and the elderly. Check on your neighbors and relatives. • Know the signs of heat stroke. Heat stroke is much more serious than heat exhaustion. Symptoms are similar to heat exhaustion, but also include hot, flushed skin, as normal sweating stops. If heat stroke is a possibility, call 911 immediately. Heat stroke is life-threatening.

Lutheran Church Of Webster Gardens Needs Home For Annual Service Project The Lutheran Church of Webster Gardens hosts an annual service project where a home is selected for basic home improvements. The work includes painting, some basic electrical and plumbing work, and replacing windows and landscaping. The goal of the service project is to help a family that is down and out on their luck. The Lutheran Church of Webster Gardens is looking for help in finding a needy recipient for this year’s service project — perhaps someone unemployed, a single parent or a person battling a life threatening disease who could use a helping hand.

Will meet speedskating champion Apolo Ohno Ursuline Academy student Andrea Hawkins will get the chance to meet Olympic speedskating world champion Apolo Ohno after winning a national contest. Hawkins, 17, won the most votes in the EIB All Stars contest, which was part of a national awareness campaign celebrating the determination and accomplishments of people living with exercise-induced bronchospasm (EIB). The condition, which causes the airways in the lungs to temporarily narrow during or after aerobic exercise making it difficult to breathe, affects an estimated 30 million Americas, including Ohno. As part of his involvement in the campaign, Ohno asked the public to

cast votes online for the EIB story they found most inspiring. Hawkins garnered the most votes in the online contest, winning a trip for two to Los Angeles to meet the champion speedskater. “Apolo Ohno has always been an inspiration to me,” said Hawkins, who is an avid runner, accomplished doublediamond skier and recently completed in the state and national racquetball championships. “His book ‘Zero Regrets’ motivated me to become the person I am today, and finding out that he also has EIB helped me realize that this condition can’t stop me from following my dreams. Meeting him is a life-long dream of mine. I’m so excited and honored to be the winner of EIB All Stars and to meet Apolo next month.”

Vianney Boys Volleyball Team Kirkwood, Webster Send Track Qualifiers To State Wins State Title by Rick Frese Roberta McWoods, Kirkwood High School’s 28-year track and field coach, has one goal: to advance every Class 4 state qualifier into the finals of their events at the Missouri State Track and Field Championships May 24-25 at Dwight T. Reed Stadium on the campus of Lincoln University in Jefferson City. Kirkwood has its share of talent on the boys and girls squads. McWoods said she is confident each team will finish in the top 10 in the team standings. At the Class 4 Sectional 1 meet on May 18 at MICDS, the boys squad placed fifth with 53 points while the girls finished sixth with 44 points. On the boys side, Kirkwood has a solid group, despite being without two top-flight performers in senior Clyde Benson (torn ACL) and junior Eric Phillips (stress fracture). Those two would have helped the Pioneers battle for a top team finish at state, McWoods said. Junior Bryant Boyd qualified in the high jump and triple jump. Boyd took first in the high jump with a personalbest 6-feet-5 and third in the triple jump at 44-3.5. Junior James Willis captured first in the 400-meter race in a time of :48.58 seconds. Kirkwood won the 800 relay in 1:28.3. The relay consists of sophomore Jamal Hull; senior Andre Harris, Iowa bound in football; Willis; and junior soccer sensation Eric McWoods (coach’s son). The 1,600 relay of McWoods, Tyler Currie, Daniel

Hughes and Willis placed second (3:22.6). Kirkwood girls also will be wellrepresented. Sophomore Jocelyn Payne took first in the 300 hurdles (46.04). The Pioneers’ 800 relay of junior Taylor Frost, Payne, senior Elisa Steele and freshman Andi Kuehnlein won (1:43), while the 1600 relay of Kuehnlein, Payne, senior Paige Blasberg and Steele placed second (3:58.1). Steele was third in the 400 (:58.49). Blasberg placed third in the triple jump (36-3). Webster Groves At the Class 4 Sectional 1 meet on May 18 at MICDS, the Webster

Groves High School boys team was ninth with 34 points and the girls placed 15th with 18 points at the same sectional event. Webster Groves individual boys state qualifiers are senior Dillon Williams, who was second in the 3,200 (9:34.4); junior Rishon Loper, who placed third in the 110 hurdles (:15.13); and senior Marlon Peal, who finished fourth in the 100 (:11.15). The Statesmen will send two relays in the 400 (third, :43.59) and 800 (fourth, 1:30.1). The Webster Groves girls team advanced Stacey Lambkins, who placed second in the 100 (:15.22).

St. John Vianney High School has seized the moment for the 17th time in 25 years of playing boys volleyball. The latest victory came with a 2725, 25-20 win over Westminster to capture the Class 3 Missouri State Championship on May 17 at Maryville University. Vianney’s strong play came from a pair of sophomore outside hitters in Grant Carder and David Siebum, along with junior setter Kyle Foley, middle hitter Sam Reynolds, libero Brendan Keller and outside hitter Jason Thum. Carder led the way with 13 kills. Siebum produced seven kills and Thum had five kills. Foley tallied 28 assists and five digs. Keller had six digs and Reynolds had three blocks. The first set produced 17 lead changes and 16 ties. Vianney scored the last two points to emerge on top. The first set win set the tone for a dominating second set. The Golden Griffins led 23-15 before Westminster staged a comeback. The final point came when Westminster was charged for an improper libero exchange. Vianney (26-7-1) finished with a 12-game winning streak. Vianney Coach Jeff Gabbert has been the coach for all 17 state championships. “It doesn’t get old,” Gabbert said. “They’ve been focused all year on what we needed to do to accomplish this goal and it’s the sweetest feeling in the world.”

Benefits Of Pruning Trees And Shrubs Pruning trees and shrubs is necessary to ensure they maintain their health and vigor. Mature trees typically do not need to be pruned as frequently as young trees, which need pruning to establish branch structure. In addition to promoting tree and shrub health, pruning pays a host of other dividends. • Pruning removes dead or diseased branches. Pruning helps a tree or shrub maintain its shape by removing broken, dead or diseased branches that can be unsightly and make it more difficult for the tree or shrub to stay healthy. When broken, dead or diseased branches are removed, trees or shrubs look healthier and add aesthetic appeal to a property.

• Pruning trees and shrubs promotes growth of other plants. Trees and shrubs that go years without being pruned become overgrown, making it difficult for plants underneath or adjacent to them to grow in healthy. For example, grass beneath an overgrown tree might not get adequate sunlight, which it needs to establish strong roots so it can grow in lush and healthy. Pruning allows plants beneath the tree and shrub and even those next to the tree and shrub to grow in nicely. • Pruning can sometimes bring plants back to life. Shrubs that have gone years without being pruned can sometimes still be salvaged. • Pruning reduces risk of acci-

dents. Overgrown trees can interfere with power lines, increasing the risk of accidents and power outages. In addition, overgrown trees tend to have larger, weaker limbs, which can prove hazardous and cause property damage during storms. • Pruning adds curb appeal. A property littered with overgrown trees and shrubs can give prospective buyers the impression that homeowners might have been careless with regard to maintaining the whole house and not just the lawn. Trees and shrubs that are pruned and well-maintained can add to a home’s curb appeal, something that goes a long way toward impressing prospective buyers.

The Reel World Movie Reviews by Carol Hemphill & Kent Tentschert

Star Trek Into Darkness Kent’s Grade: B Carol’s Grade: C+ Genre: Action/Adventure/Sci-fi Rated: PG-13 for intense sequences of sci-fi action and violence.

THE PLOT: When James Tiberius Kirk (Chris Pine) is relieved of duty and loses his command of the Starship Enterprise, doubt begins overtaking his confidence. After Starfleet is attacked by a rogue agent, John Harrison (Benedict Cumberbatch), Kirk is reinstated and sent to the border of the Klingon Territory to kill the terrorist. But Kirk’s decisions upon arrival set into motion a series of miscues that could start a massive war and destroy Starfleet’s best crew. KENT’S TAKE: “Star Trek Into Darkness” from director J.J. Abrams is a sci-fi drama attempting to mix humor, action and nostalgia. Dressing the film with themes of loyalty and trust, humility and responsibility creates an honorable setting befitting the Star Trek universe. However, some subtlety in the writing is missing, giving these themes a heavyhanded feel.

Questions or comments? reelworld@timesnewspapers.com

In Abrams’ first reboot of this series, 2009’s “Star Trek,” he superbly balanced elements from the original series and the reboot. In the current installment the balance between the various Star Trek touchstones and this action-packed update is still beautifully established (especially with Bones, Spock and Scotty), but the balance between the humor and drama falters. For a film called “Star Trek Into Darkness” there is too much humor to make it feel truly dark. Rank and protocol are sometimes compromised for a laugh, and the characterizations are a bit light this time around. Cumberbatch’s John Harrison is a great villain, his throaty vocalization and aura of menace more unsettling than any phaser blast. Pine is consistent in his portrayal of Kirk, as we witness the maturing of a Starfleet captain. I was hoping to get to know Bones, Scotty and Uhura better, but didn’t discover much insight into Kirk’s crew. “Star Trek Into Darkness” is a wild, entertaining addition to this brazen franchise. However, the bar was set so high in the first film that Abrams had a starship-sized sequel to make. Unfortunately, the story’s stabilizers falter, unbalancing a normally evenhanded flight.

CAROL’S TAKE: Who is qualified to comment on a Star Trek movie? Maybe a fan of the 1960’s television series would do – or, perhaps a devotee of the five TV spinoffs. The best choice may be an expert on the motion pictures, now numbering an even dozen, which have been produced in every decade since the 1970s. Subject to bouts of nostalgia amid flights of fancy, this entertainment juggernaut has a special affection for reinvention. Its appeal is both crossgenerational and unstoppable. No matter what attitudes viewers bring to “Star Trek Into Darkness,” the expectation of darkness is a fair one. But, this is not a dark picture. Cumberbatch, at his villainous best, is no match for the fits of familiarity and funny business that dominate the movie. As Admiral Marcus, the cunning Peter Weller is prepared to go fully dark, but the script makes no time for that aspect of his role. As a rung on a franchise ladder, “Into Darkness” fulfills its three purposes: to earn new fans, to refill showbiz coffers, and to set up the next installment. As a stand-alone motion picture, “Into Darkness” squanders its energy in the land of clichés without displaying the kind of boldness necessary to take us someplace new.
