BROOKLYN TODAY JUNE 14 Good morning. Today is the 165th day of the year.

On June 14, 1866, the Brooklyn Daily Eagle ran an article called “The Dress Question.” The article concerned Dr. Mary DeWalker, a Brooklyn resident and physician who, rather than wearing a wide anklelength skirt as was the custom in those days, wore a straight skirt reaching just below the knees with a pair of trousers underneath.

“The vulgar mind, unaccustomed to this sort of thing, makes it inconvenient for Mrs. DeWalker to appear in public,” the Eagle wrote.

“Wherever she is seen in the street, a large and excitable crowd follows her, causing annoyance.”

Brooklyn Welcomes Kidd as Nets Coach

Savino: Let’s Drop NYS Abortion Fight

From Associated Press A key abortion rights Democrat says it's time to drop Gov. Andrew Cuomo's abortion legislation, a move that would likely end the protracted debate on it this year.

Sen. Diane Savino (D-Brooklyn-Staten Island) said Thursday that the abortion fight should no longer threaten the other nine points of Cuomo’s proposal to strengthen women’s rights in these final days of the legislative session.

“The continued rally for a choice bill to come to the Senate floor will neither change nor alter what is currently protected for women under existing law,” said Savino.

INSTEAD OF FENDING OFF opposing point guards, new Brooklyn Nets head coach Jason Kidd has to deal with the New York media contingent. The future Hall of Fame point guard ranks second all-time in assists and steals, is the only player ever to put up at least 15,000 points, 10,000 assists and 7,000 rebounds, and is third in career triple-doubles with 107 in the regular season and 11 more in the playoffs.

LICH Supporters Demand Action by Gov

By Mary Frost

Brooklyn Daily Eagle

Saying that the life of Long Island College Hospital (LICH) has reached a “critical” moment, supporters of the beleaguered Cobble Hill institution have started a letter-writing campaign to Gov. Andrew Cuomo, and will be holding a fundraiser on Friday.

“The governor needs to take charge. So far, he has refused to meet with our local elected officials,” said the Brooklyn Heights Association in a statement. “We need to show Governor Cuomo that we expect him, as our elected representative, to act in the best interests of the

western Brooklyn residential and business community.”

“Lean in by speaking out!”

BHA told its members.

“SUNY Downstate has withdrawn its closure plan but not its closure behavior,” BHA President Jane McGroarty said in a letter to the governor. “It is starving LICH in terms of personnel and house staff in violation of the TRO order [temporary restraining order] by the NYS Supreme Court.”

The Concerned Physicians of Long Island College Hospital and the NYS Nurses Association have put together a fundraiser for Friday at 6 p.m. at 320 Atlantic Ave. to raise money

for the continuing legal battle.

eview and Comment R Who Says Brooklynites

Don’t Care?

By Carl Blumenthal For Brooklyn Daily Eagle

I didn’t see it coming. Not a bus barreling through a red light, but our car breaking down after a Saturday night on the town.

My wife, Susan, and I had celebrated our 18th anniversary, with her sister, Rosemary, at an Indian restaurant on 3rd Avenue at 73rd Street in Bay Ridge. Afterwards, Susan and I headed south on 4th Avenue toward the 17th Street entrance to the Prospect Expressway, and our home off the Fort Hamilton Parkway exit.

When the various warning lights started flickering on the dash as we passed Green-Wood Cemetery, I became concerned, but not overly so. I believed it was just an electrical ghost in the machine; we could ride it out. However, when the headlights dimmed, I feared we wouldn’t make it. Our 2004 Subaru Forrester ground to a halt in the right turning lane to 17th Street, where we were sitting ducks for anyone wanting to get on the Prospect.

And guess what? Not only was I slow to understand the meltdown warning signs, but Susan and I are semi-Luddites in another way—we don’t own cell phones. While she went into the corner grocery store, Earth’s Basket, to call Allstate for a tow, I tried to route vehicles around ours, a dangerous proposition because even temporary parking isn’t allowed there. Eventually, I moved a sawhorse on the sidewalk of an adjacent construction site to the road in front of my car to prevent a collision.

Meanwhile, the store’s owners were nice enough to let my wife use their phone while she haggled with Allstate and their supposedly local contractor to arrange our rescue. (They refused to deliver the car to our mechanic, McGready’s, on Coney Island Avenue at Avenue U.) Back on the street, a dozen people of all races, classes, and genders offered help, including a couple of local tow truck operators. In good faith, I could not accept their assistance because Allstate’s tower confirmed he was on his way. Had a passing NYPD squad car and tow truck stopped, I would have refused them too.

After more than two hours of waiting for Allstate, Earth Basket’s principal owner, Sam Sarsour, offered to move his legally-parked car from in front of the store. With his and his brother’s help, as I steered our 3,500-pound Subaru, we pushed it to that spot. Sam wouldn’t accept any money, neither for the use of his phone nor for his labor.

On Monday morning I called our mechanic for the name of a reliable towing company. While I stood in the rain for only 30 minutes during rush hour until Citywide Towing arrived, Sam emerged from Earth’s Basket to confirm he closed at 1 a.m. Sunday; Allstate never showed.

I suppose all’s well that ends well! Citywide jumped our car, allowing me to maneuver it to the back of one of the company’s new flat-bed trucks. From there we went to McGready’s. As I belatedly suspected, a newly installed alternator had failed to deliver juice from the battery to the electrical system. Fortunately, it was under warranty.

Therefore, the moral of this tale is don’t depend in tight spots on the big guys. Rely on the little people, who know what it’s like to be at the mercy of impersonal forces. We, the real Brooklynites, have got to stick together.

Fort Hamilton Dedicates Bluff to Fallen Soldier

By Paula Katinas Brooklyn Eagle

At Brooklyn’s Fort Hamilton Army Base, there is a bluff on the waterfront that offers a breathtaking view of the Narrows and the Verrazano-Narrows Bridge. Starting this past Thursday, that bucolic space will forever be known as Engeldrum Bluff in memory of Christian Engeldrum, a firefighter-turned-soldier killed in the Iraq War. Engeldrum, 39, a staff sergeant in the 69th Infantry Regiment of the New York Army National Guard, was killed when his vehicle hit an improvised explosive device (IED) while he was on duty outside of Baghdad on Nov. 29, 2004.

Before his tour of duty in Iraq, Engeldrum, who hailed from the Bronx, was a New York City firefighter assigned to Ladder Co. 61 in his native borough. He was a first responder at the World Trade Center site following the Sept. 11 attack, assisting in the recovery effort. He is buried at Arlington National Cemetery.

On Thursday, soldiers, firefighters, community leaders, Engeldrum’s wife Sharon, his mother Lenora and members of his family gathered at the fort for a ceremony dedicating the bluff in his name.

The fort’s commander, Col. Eluyn Gines, had orig-

inally planned to hold the ceremony on the bluff, but a rainstorm forced a change of venue and the event was held inside the fort’s Post Theater.

The change gave the ceremony a much more intimate feel that it might have had if it had taken place outside.

A large photo showing the plaque bearing Engeldrum’s name was unveiled on the theater’s stage during the ceremony.

Gines called Engeldrum “an American hero,” and said it was fitting that the ceremony was taking place during a week when the nation was celebrating the 238th birthday of the US Army and when the fort is marking its 188th birthday. “It is a week of celebration but also of remembrance,” Gines said, adding that it is important to recall the lives lost in war and the loved ones they left behind.

“Every life lost is a tragedy. There’s really no preparation for it. It’s a pain that rips through your soul,” he said.

Gines announced that in addition to the bluff dedication, the fort was also reserving four permanent parking spaces on the base for the families of military members killed in war.

New York City Fire Commissioner Salvatore Cassano, who noted that Engeldrum had saved lives as a firefighter, said that he was

“a true hero in every sense of the word.” After the Sept.

11 attack, Engeldrum “rushed to the World Trade Center to rescue thousands.” The first responders, Cassano said, were “among the first in the battle against terrorism.”

The firehouse where Engeldrum worked contains a plaque dedicated in his memory. There is also a Veterans of Foreign Wars (VFW) post named after him, Cassano said. The fort dedication is meaningful, the commissioner said. “With this ceremony, Christian will forever become a part of Fort Hamilton,” he said.

The 69th Infantry Regiment, the unit Engeldrum belonged to, is known as the “Fighting 69th.” Lt. Col. James Gonyo, commander of the regiment, recalled that Engeldrum’s colleagues called him “Chris,” or by his nickname, “Drum.” Gonyo said that visiting the bluff “will allow us to pause and remember; to go and remember and shed a tear.”

Engeldrum Bluff will also give military members a chance to “find the courage to go on with our lives,” Gonyo said.

Gonyo read aloud the Joyce Kilmer poem “Rouge Bouquet,” about soldiers from the Fighting 69th killed in a World War I battle. The poem included the lines, “Dead in their youthful prime, never to laugh nor

love again, nor taste the summertime.”

Of all the speakers, the person who received the most sustained applause was the person who spoke only a few sentences. Engeldrum’s widow, Sharon, thanked all those taking part in the ceremony. “I thank you for the great honor,” she said. She left the stage to a standing ovation.

Thompson in Coney: City Must Prepare for Disasters

By Paula Katinas Brooklyn Eagle

The city needs to do a better job of preparing and responding to natural disasters, former Comptroller Bill Thompson said after taking a tour of areas of Coney Island damaged by Superstorm Sandy.

During a visit to a Coney Island senior center on June 13, Thompson, one of the six candidates running in the Democratic Party primary for mayor in September, outlined a series of steps he said would help prepare the city for the next natural disaster or terrorist attack.

Thompson said that if he is elected mayor, he would create a new post of deputy mayor for infrastructure and construction. The deputy mayor would be in charge of converting billions of dollars in post-Sandy federal aid into long-term city planning to upgrade power, sewage and telecommunication systems.

“We must plan — and act — today to prepare for tomorrow,” Thompson said.

“We cannot secure New York’s promise of opportunity if some families and communities are left fending for themselves when disaster strikes.”

“When I’m mayor, communities in southeast Queens,

the South Shore, City Island and southern Brooklyn will receive the same resources as corporations on Wall Street or businesses on Fifth Avenue,” the candidate said.

Under the plan, the city would elevate substations, reposition emergency generators in buildings, and work to make sure there are enough back-up generators in the city. Thompson called for the building and expansion of sand dunes and the stabilization of sand dunes and beach shrubs along the Rockaways, in Jamaica Bay and in waterfront areas.

His disaster preparedness plan includes the creation of a new emergency call system that would automatical-

ly route fire and life-threatening calls to local dispatchers in each borough, a move that Thompson said would save time and lives. The calls would bypass the city’s Unified Call Taker System.

Recalling the gasoline shortage that hit New Yorkers in the wake of Sandy, and the long lines at gas stations, Thompson called for a temporary suspension of maritime laws that block barges from delivering fuel to the city. The plan would deliver larger quantities of fuel to the hardest-hit communities, remove trucks from already strained roads, and help prevent the long gasoline lines experienced after the hurricane hit, he said.

Thompson said he would launch a new “Bringing Businesses Back” initiative to assist small businesses with insurance, planning, and resources before, during, and after disasters. His plan also includes using federal stimulus to lower the cost of renters’ insurance for residents who live in New York City Housing Authority buildings, especially senior citizens and families on fixed incomes living in evacuation zones.

Thompson also called for increased support for families, small businesses and communities still reeling from Hurricane Sandy.

Following the ceremony, Lenora Engeldrum said the event made her happy.

“It’s great to know that Chris is being remembered,” she told the Brooklyn Daily Eagle. She described her son as “an action man” and said he signed up for the National Guard following the Sept. 11 attacks. “He was outraged by what happened on 9/11,” she

recalled. Her son always had a sense of fairness and would become upset if he saw something unfair, she said.

She wasn’t surprised when Chris served in both the military and the Fire Department. “That he was a little boy, he was always playing with a G.I. Joe. And he had firetrucks, too,” she said with a smile.

Sports Whole New Ball Game for Kidd Brooklyn’s Novice Coach Ready To Take Nets to Next Level

By John Torenli Sports Editor Brooklyn Eagle

for.

Jason Kidd’s numbers are to die

The future Hall of Fame point guard ranks second all-time in assists and steals, is the only player ever to put up at least 15,000 points, 10,000 assists and 7,000 rebounds and is third in career triple-doubles with 107 in the regular season and 11 more in the playoffs.

The 40-year-old San Francisco native also owns an NBA Championship ring, two Olympic Gold Medals and was a 10-time NBA All-Star.

His career record as an NBA coach, however, currently stands at 0-0, making his official hiring Thursday afternoon as the 18th head man in Nets history a risky one, to say the least, for Brooklyn general manager Billy King and ultra-demanding team owner Mikhail Prokhorov.

“Anytime you make a hire, you take a risk,” admitted King during Kidd’s introductory press conference just inside the main entrance to the Barclays Center before a throng of media gathered to take its first poke at the recently retired 19year NBA veteran.

“I’ve known him for a long time, so I don’t worry about whether guys are going to respond to him,” King insisted. “He works hard and that’s what I believe in.”

As for Kidd, who finished up his career with a well-chronicled scoreless effort in the Knicks’ playoff series against Indiana last month, the challenge of taking over a team that won 49 games a season ago and reached the playoffs for the first time since 2007 is one he embraces.

Albeit with a bit of understandable trepidation.

Instead of fending off opposing point guards, new Nets head coach Jason Kidd has to deal with the New York media contingent.

“I’m nervous,” Kidd said. “I’m a rookie. I go from being one of the oldest players in the league to being a rookie head coach. I have a lot to learn about coaching. But this is a championship caliber-type team.

Hopefully, I can communicate that to the guys.”

Kidd’s on-the-court communication skills were never questioned during his playing days.

The most deft and defiant hardwood quarterback of his era, the newly minted coach must now pass on those formidable skills and his knowledge of the game to the Nets’ $98 million point guard Deron Williams, who struggled in that role

during the first half of last season.

“He’s the guy I want to pass the torch to,” Kidd said of Williams, who was on hand to welcome his third head coach since the Nets opened the Barclays in November. “He loves the competition and that’s where it all starts. I think Deron is one of the best point guards in this league.”

King, who cited a need for great-

“Jason Kidd combined everything we were looking for. The one thing about Jason is he’s always worked hard. He doesn’t just want to be good at something, he wants to be great. He was an unselfish player. He wasn’t a great shooter when he came in the league, but he became a great shooter. He’ll make sure we go in the right direction.”

“The mission is to win,” Kidd stated emphatically. “This is a team that should score at least 100 points (a night), but you can’t win championships without defense. Deron is one of the best point guards in the league. Brook Lopez is obviously very talented. Those are two positions that we’re set. My job is to get the most out of them. We want to be like the best franchises in sports, like San Antonio. We want to win 50 games for the next 12, 13 years.”

Fortunately for Kidd, he won’t have to go it alone.

There are already rumors circulating that former Nets coach and close Kidd confidant Lawrence Frank will be brought in as a top assistant. Kidd openly campaigned for the man he played under for the four of his six seasons with the New Jersey Nets, whom he led to the franchise’s only two NBA Finals appearances in 2002 and 2003.

“We’re in discussions about a staff. Lawrence would be a great candidate,” Kidd said. “I understand that I will lean on my staff heavily and learn from them. You have to start with structure. It starts with your leader. Guys will hear me talking, My message will be simple: ‘You have to play hard, play defense and work together.’”

While most head coaches run practice with a whistle in their mouths from the sideline, Kidd is still spry enough to get up and down with the league’s best ath-

er toughness from the high-priced roster he put together during a $330 million spending spree last summer, firmly believes that Kidd has what it takes to make the Nets one of the elite franchises in the league.

“When this process started, we were looking for a coach with great leadership to help our players compete and play hard,” said King, who interviewed Indiana assistant Brian Shaw on Wednesday before committing to Kidd.

That direction has to be up in 2013-14, as Prokhorov is in NBA Finals-or-bust mode entering his fourth season at the helm of the recently relocated franchise.

Armed with a “Big Three” of Williams, All-Star center Brook Lopez and shooting guard Joe Johnson, and a strong cast of supporting players, Kidd must take the Nets further than the first round of the playoffs next season for this hiring to be deemed a prudent one by King.

letes should he decide to lace them up again.

But the best player in Nets history isn’t about to entertain thoughts of a comeback on the hardwood, especially not with all the work he has ahead of him in the film room and in advance of this month’s NBA Draft.

“I would have to take a lot of Advil,” Kidd jibed when the Eagle asked if he’d actively participate in team practices. “I’ll just keep the running to the treadmill.”

Roots of ‘Uncle Tom’ and ‘Simon Legree’

LITCHFIELD, CT — Harriet Beecher Stowe was born in Litchfield, CT, June 14, 1811, the daughter of the Rev. Lyman Beecher and sister of Rev. Henry Ward Beecher who was the pastor of Plymouth Church corner of Hicks and Orange Streets in Brooklyn Heights. She was author off Uncle Tom’s Cabin, an anti-slavery novel that provoked a storm of protest and resulted in fame for its author. Two characters in the novel attained such importance that their names became part of the English language — the black slave, Uncle Tom, and the villainous slave owner, Simon Legree. The bitter reaction to Uncle Tom’s Cabin and its profound political impact are without parallel in American literature. It is said that during the Civil War, when Harriet Beecher Stowe was introduced to President Abraham Lincoln, his words to her were “So you’re the little woman who wrote the book that made this great war.”

The last ten years of Stowe’s life were clouded by an ailment which may have been Alzheimer’s disease. She died in Hartford, CT, on July 1, 1896.

Uncle Tom’s Cabin has been dramatized and appeared on the stage many many times over the years from Broadway to little touring tent shows.

playwright, opened his production of the story on Sept. 27, 1852 for a run of 100 performances. He did so without Stowe’s consent. In 1924 a jazz version named Topsy and Eva opened at the Harris Theatre on Broadway. The popular Duncan Sisters starred, Vivian in golden curls and Rosetta in blackface and pigtails. Such songs as “Moon Am Shining,” “The Land of Long Ago” and “Rememb’ring” were featured.

It ran for 20 weeks after a Chicago run of 43 weeks. The newest film version was a made-for-TV movie in 1987.

Bruce Dern, Paula Kelly and Kate Burton were in the cast.

Dapper is the Word for Barry

BROOKLYN — Gene Barry was born Eugene Klass in Brooklyn on June 14, 1921. He is a graduate of New Utrecht High School in Brooklyn. Barry began his illustrious acting career in stock. He headed west for a movie career and starred in the cult classic War of the Worlds (’53) and after that appeared in such films as Red Garters (’54) and Soldier of Fortune (’56).

Barry’s film Thunder Road (’58) bears special interest to this columnist. It was filmed in and around my home town, Asheville, NC. In fact, a set (the exterior of a country store where some of the film’s action took place) was constructed in the “hollow” below my Grandmother Callahan’s house and from her porch rocker on the hill above she watched all the filming activity (she didn’t miss a take!)

Barry’s ultimate fame was attained on TV. In the 50s he appeared in all sorts of dramas, including multiple episodes of “The Loretta Young Show,” “Science Fiction Theater,” “Alfred Hitchcock Presents” and “Ford Theatre.” He appeared in “Our Miss Brooks” (1955-56 season) as one of Miss Brooks’ (Eve Arden’s) romantic interests, Gene Talbot, the physical ed teacher at Madison High. A western series came next when he played lawyer, Indian fighter, scout and professional gambler on “Bat Masterson” (‘59’61). On “Burke’s Law” (63-66) he played an L.A. chief of detectives, and in the adventure series “The Name of the Game” (‘68’71) he played the head of a publishing empire. He was in big budget TV movies and miniseries which included Aspen (‘77). In the 80s he made appearances on “The Love Boat” and “Fantasy Island.”

Gene Barry once quipped: “I may not have been the fastest gun in the West, but I was neat.” “Dap-

per” is an adjective that fits Barry in all his roles. He came to Broadway to add to his laurels with the starring role in the smash hit musical La Cage Aux Follies.

In the Oak Room at the Algonquin Hotel in Manhattan, Barry came out of semi-retirement to make his cabaret debut a month following his 80th birthday last year. The reviews were favorable for both his singing and his patter. He did “Groucho and Me” with an engaging show-biz flair.

Brooklyn Accent Gets Her Role

BROOKLYN — Leah Remini was born in Bensonhurst Brooklyn on June 15, 1970 of a Jewish mother and Sicilian father. In her own words about her childhood: “I was the kinda kid that wouldn’t even cut school when we had a half-day. But I was mouthy. Always had an answer. My mouth got me into trouble.” Even as a child she had a yen towards the acting profession maybe not as strong as towards becoming a singer, but she realized she didn’t quite have the talent for that.

She took ballet, tap and jazz dancing but decided that wasn’t for her either.

At age 13 Leah moved to Los Angeles with her mother and sisters. At 14 she dropped out of school.

Her mother warned her that was okay only if she was going to achieve some form of greatness in life. Leah worked at waitressing, selling car insurance, and as a telemarketer for a solar heating company and a continuous job of auditioning for acting roles.

Leah developed an unapologetic attitude about her brazen attitude toward life and her acting career. A caustic wit pervades nearly everything she says; expletives pepper her sentences, reinforcing the stereotype of a tough-talking Brooklynite.

But asked if she’d consider toning down her Brooklynese, Remini pounced: “No. Are you trying to give me a hint that I should drop it? I can lose the accent; I just have to really focus on what I’m saying. And I have

to talk slowly.”

That distinctive Brooklynese talk helped land her first speaking part in an episode of TV’s “Head of the Class.”

From that point her acting career skyrocketed. In 1989 she appeared as Charlie Brisco in the sit-com “Living Dolls,” a spin-off of the popular sit-com “Who’s the Boss?” that starred two other Brooklynites, Tony Danza and Alyssa Milano.

They occasionally dropped in as guests on Remini’s show. It was a lightweight comedy about four beautiful teenagers aspiring to become models under the tutelage of Trish Carlin (played by Michael Learned) who ran a model agency. The girls were innocent Martha (Alison Elliott); serious Emily (Halle Berry) who wanted to use her earnings to become a doctor; self-centered Caroline (Deborah Tucker), and tough-talking Charlie (Leah), a former street kid with a chip on her shoulder.

In her role as Tina Favasso in the 1991 sit-com “Man In the Family” she was appropriately cast as a rebellious teenaged daughter in a Brooklyn family who owned and operated Carmine’s Deli. (The show’s theme song was “When You’re Smiling” sung by Louis Prima).

The first Madison Square Garden (1879) proved inadequate. This is the second, which opened on June 16, 1890. It was designed by Stanford White. When built it was the second tallest building in New York with the largest auditorium in the U.S., seating 8,000.

Two more have been built since — 1925 and 1968.

‘New’ Madison Square Garden Opens MANHATTAN — On June 16, 1890, a series of orchestral concerts, including two ballets, conducted by Eduard Strauss, brother of Johann Strauss (the Waltz King), marked the opening of a new Madison Square Garden in Manhattan. It was built to replace a grimy, drafty Garden opened by William Vanderbilt on May 31, 1879 and demolished in 1889. The new building was designed in a Moorish style by Stanford White and erected at a cost of

$1 million. It was topped by a reproduction of the Giralda Tower of Seville, later to be topped by Augustus SaintGaudens’s statue of Diana, financed by some of Wall Street’s most noted tycoons.

The second tallest building in New York at the time, it had the largest auditorium in the U.S. seating 8,000, a theater, a concert hall, apartment, a roof cabaret, and the city’s largest restaurant. The Garden was the site of the Horse Show, the Westminster

Kennel Club shows, bicycle races, long-distance foot races, boxing matches, physical culture exhibitions, and political rallies. It was the site of the 1924 Democratic National Convention, which lasted 17 days. In 1925 it was razed to make way for the new headquarters of New York Life Insurance. A new arena was built at 50th Street and 8th Avenue. Opening in November 1925 it was used until the present one was opened in 1968.

BROOKLYN — Erich (Wolf) Segal was born in the Flatbush section of Brooklyn on June 16, 1937 to Samuel M. Segal, an orthodox rabbi, and Cynthia (Shapiro) Segal.

Of his father he has said: “It was he who instilled in me the love of learning and who made me take Latin as well as Hebrew. Avocationally, Rabbi Segal was a sculptor, artist, and musician of more than average talent, and musical competence was one of the traits he passed on to Erich, who plays the piano well. Segal attended the Crown Heights Yeshiva and Midwood High School, where he registered straight A’s. He was too frail for most varsity sports, but he took up running for therapeutic reasons after injuring a leg in a canoe accident when he was sixteen, and he made the high school track team. (He has continued to run ten miles a day on a regular basis.) Even though the Segals moved to Manhattan he continued his studies at Midwood.

In 1954 Segal graduated from high school and entered Harvard College, where he ran track, and with composer Joe Raposo, wrote Harvard’s Hasty Pudding Show of 1958.

When he took his B.A. degree in 1958, he was both class poet and Latin salutatorian. In 1959, when he earned his M.S. degree from Harvard, he met Ali MacGraw (later the star of the film version of Segal’s Love Story) during a theatrical production at nearby Wellesley College, and the two remained friends thereafter.

In 1961 Segal wrote a musical spoof (with music by Joe Raposo) of the Trojan war — Sing, Muse! — while working for his Ph.D at Harvard. It played off-Broadway for 39 performances. In 1970 and 1971 Segal scored sensationally both in bookstores and at the movie box office with his novel and film script Love Story. Strictly as characters, aside from the story line, the star-crossed hero and heroine of Love Story were based on a young man and woman Segal had known, in separate connections. He first wrote Love Story as a film script, which he finished in a few weeks. It was rejected by every motion picture studio in the U.S. It was too soap-opera-ish for the times.

Ali MacGraw read the original scenario and persuaded executives at Paramount pictures to film it even as Segal was rewriting it as a novel. The novel zoomed to the top of the best-seller lists, where it remained for months.

The movie version became a phenomenal success. Even the stoniest of hearts could not re-

owned a plantation near the site on Kings Highway where the Flatlands Dutch Reformed Church was built at a later date.

Around 1651 Governor Peter Stuyvesant acquired a large plot in the town. He granted residents local rule in 1661.

The primary occupation of the colonists was farming. They grew corn, squash, beans, and tobacco and fed their cattle salt hay.

Clams were harvested in Jamaica Bay by the fishermen of the settlement. Slaves accounted for about 20 percent of the population and were an important part of the economy until New York State abolished slavery in 1827. In the 1830s the population was about seven hundred, making Flatlands one of the two smallest towns in the county.

In 1896 Flatlands became a part of the city of Brooklyn. The present Flatlands neighborhood is bounded to the north by Flatlands Avenue, to the east by Paedergat Basin, to the south by Avenue U, and to the west

by Flatbush Avenue.

sist a tear or two, and many moviegoers wept openly at the tragic tale.

The movie was nominated for seven Oscars. Segal’s other screen credits include Yellow Submarine, The Games, R.P.M. and Jennifer on My Mind. Segal’s novels include Acts of Faith and Man, Woman and Child.

Segal has written books, essays, and translations.

He died January, 2010.

FROM THE

BROOKLYN AERIE A Column of Trivia and Observations

By David Ansel Weiss weissdavid76@gmail.com

They Decide in Favor of These Fine Restaurants

Did you know that Walter Camp, the “Father of Football” who invented the forward pass,” was the first president of Brooklyn’s elite Crescent Athletic Club, which was in Bay Ridge where Fort Hamilton High School is now?

I don’t know how many Roosevelts are buried in Green-Wood Cemetery, but three of Theodore Roosevelt’s immediate family were, i.e. his parents and his first wife.

According to one account, the last fullblooded Canarsee Indian in Brooklyn was a man named Joel Skidmore, who died in his nineties in 1902.

It has been just one half century since Junior’s introduced its cheesecake.

Lafayette was not the only famous Frenchman to visit Brooklyn in the 19th century. Talleyrand, who later became one of his nation’s leading diplomats and statesmen, supposedly lived here briefly in exile in a farmhouse on Hicks St. near what is now Old Fulton St.

Walt Whitman once went all-out describing the local saloons. “They are the source of the mighty outpourings of ale and lager beer,” he said, “refreshing the thirst of drinkers in cold and hot weather.”

The Battle of Brooklyn was not only the first battle of the American Revolution, but unlike the skirmishes at Concord and Lexington, it was fought in hand to hand combat instead of behind barricades.

In the 1910 obituary of Charles Feltman in the New York Times, he is described as “the man who turned the sandy wastes of Coney Island into a pleasure ground.” Not mentioned once is the fact that according to most historians, it was Feltman who invented the hot dog.

Among the many big-league baseball players whose careers started with playing ball in Prospect Park were Sandy Koufax, Joe Torre, Lee Mazilli, Chuck Connors, Joe Pepitone and Willie Randolph.

The first Dutch Reformed Church in Brooklyn had two unusual features: First, it had a hexagonal shape. Second, it stood smack in the middle of Fulton St. (near Duffield) with traffic having to walk or ride around it.

Did you know that at the turn of the last century, one of the most poular sports in Brooklyn was lawn bowling? It was even played in the Parade Grounds after they were no longer used for parades.

Sign of the times! For years you would have had to be a resident of Brooklyn for fifty years to qualify for membership in the Society of Old Brookynites, but now you can become a member after a residency of only twenty-five years.

Tropfest, World’s Largest Short Film Festival, to Debut in Brooklyn Brooklyn-based Tropfest Founder Excited to Present in Prospect Park

By Samantha Samel Brooklyn Eagle

Now in its 21st year, Tropfest, the world’s largest short film festival, is making its Brooklyn debut in Prospect Park on June 22.

Founded by John Polson, an Australian-born, Brooklyn-based filmmaker, Tropfest has become an important launching pad for aspiring filmmakers with minimal resources, offering artists the chance to present their work to an audience of tens of thousands.

no doubt Fisher, Malcolm, and Leonard will have some tough decisions ahead of them,” said Polson.

Polson, an actor, producer and director, started Tropfest 20 years ago in Australia, when he made a short film on his own and organized a screening at a local café. Polson made the six-minute film for under $100, and while he thought the audience would consist of just a few friends, he was amazed to find that 200 people showed up. Realiz-

“It’s very exciting what’s going on [in Brooklyn], where there are so many artists and filmmakers and writers. I genuinely believe it’s one of the creative centers of the world,” Polson told the Brooklyn Eagle in a recent interview. “We are excited to be in Brooklyn this year with incredible judges and great sponsors to help keep this tradition alive and growing.”

This year’s festival will be hosted by Emmy and Golden Globe nominee Liev Schreiber. Tropfest announced this spring a new partnership with SHOWTIME, and its other 2013 partners include Entertainment Weekly, the Motion Picture Association, NBC 4 New York, WNYC, the Village Voice, and the Film Society of Lincoln Center.

Among this year’s judges are author Malcolm Gladwell (“The Tipping Point), WNYC host Leonard Lopate, and Academy Award-winning producer Fisher Stevens (“The Cove”). "I have

ing the support and excitement surrounding short films, Polson was inspired to offer to other filmmakers a similar experience.

Today, Tropfest has become a global festival with events and screenings in Arabia, Asia, Australia, Europe, India, New Zealand, the U.S. and elsewhere.

The festival attracts hundreds of filmmakers and thousands of attendees.

True to its humble and communal origins, Tropfest events are free and open to the public, and anyone is invited to enter the competition (though this year’s submission period has already ended).

The winning film receives a sizeable $20,000 prize, and past winners have gone on to enjoy impressive success (The FX series “Wilfred” with Elijah Wood began as an Australian Tropfest short).

Each year, the festival has a theme or a signature item that must be referenced in the films. This

year’s item – a bridge – is especially fitting. Polson explained that when the bridge theme was chosen, he’d had his eye on Brooklyn, but was not yet sure of where the event would take place. “We chose ‘bridge’ just because of New York, really, and it was so funny – I told my graphic designer that the signature item was bridge, and he sent me artwork of the Brooklyn Bridge... so it was this perfect storm of circumstances.”

As the event is free, it relies exclusively on support from corporate sponsors.

“We’ve managed to pull together some really great sponsorships,” Polson told the Eagle. “I’m really hoping that this year goes really, really well. We’re inviting a lot of potential partners for next year; I want to make this an official annual event in Brooklyn.”

The festival this year will feature a free yoga class set to movie scores (presented

by Brooklyn’s Prema Yoga), as well as bands and DJs including Brooklyn-based duo Chairlift, who will headline the event. At 8 p.m., Schreiber will appear to introduce the screenings. “The best part of it, of course, is the films,” Polson told the Eagle.

NY-Centric Novel to Launch in Bay Ridge From Touchstone/Simon & Schuster

In “Astor Place Vintage,” a novel by New York-based writer Stephanie Lehmann (Touchstone Books/Simon & Schuster), the past and present intertwine through the stories of two women—one longing to succeed in a rapidly modernizing world and the other clinging tightly to yesterday. Lehmann will celebrate the release of her novel – which has received rave reviews from esteemed writers and critics – in Brooklyn on June 27, with a reading and signing at Bay Ridge’s BookMarke Shoppe.

Twenty-year-old Olive lives in a time when Victorian ideals that limit a woman’s sphere to marriage and motherhood are just beginning to give way. She has ambitions to become a department store buyer, but when her father dies, Olive is left on the brink of poverty and must take a low-paying job as salesgirl at the Siegel-Cooper Department Store. (The building still stands today as a Bed, Bath & Beyond on 18th Street & 6th Avenue.) Olive is determined to survive, and even thrive, in her drastically reduced circumstances.

As Amanda continues to read Olive’s journal, her own life begins to unravel until she can no longer ignore the haunting words. With the lease on her shop set to expire and her love life falling apart, Amanda is even more frustrated by questions that linger beyond the diary’s final entries. As she begins to piece together the truth, Amanda finds that she is connected to Olive in ways neither could have imagined and, by understanding the past, is finally able to embrace her own future.

With historical photographs and details throughout, Astor Place Vintage takes readers on a fascinating tour of New York City both at the turn of the century and today.

Brooklyn Bridge Park Conservancy Announces 2013 Books Beneath the Bridge Lineup In its second year, program will feature Colum McCann, Colson Whitehead, and Ayana Mathis, among others

A literary crowd gathered last year to hear Patti Smith read at a Books Beneath the Bridge event.

By Samantha Samel Brooklyn Eagle

Books and bridges have long been defining components of Brooklyn’s identity, characterizing this scenic literary hub. A consummate mix of some of the borough’s finest qualities, Books Beneath the Bridge is the Brooklyn Bridge Park Conservancy’s summer literary series at which local, independent bookstores curate outdoor readings that include a Q&A and book signing with featured authors.

The Brooklyn Bridge Park Conservancy announced this week the summer 2013 program, which will begin on Monday, July 8, at 7 p.m. The series will run for six consecutive Mondays at Pier 1’s Granite Prospect, and is co-curated by bookstores in DUMBO, Red Hook, Fort Greene, Greenpoint, Park Slope and Cobble Hill.

“We are very pleased to be welcoming Books Beneath the Bridge back to our lineup of free events in Brooklyn Bridge Park this year,” said Nancy Webster, executive director of the Brooklyn Bridge Park Conservancy. “BBTB quickly became one of our most talked about events last summer and we couldn’t be happier with the lineup of au-

thors for its second year.”

Among last year’s featured authors were Patti Smith and Martin Amis, and more than 2,500 bookworms came out to enjoy the scenic readings. This summer’s lineup includes National Book Award-winner Colum McCann, Pulitzer Prize-winning poet Sharon Olds, and New York Times bestselling author (and Brooklynite) Ayana Mathis, among others.

“We’ve been looking forward to the return of Books Beneath the Bridge since our event last year; it was a huge success, and loads of fun – there’s nothing quite like seeing nearly 300 people held rapt by your favorite authors,” said Jenn Northington, events director at WORD Bookstore. “The series is also one of the best examples I’ve seen of the big things that can happen when independent bookstores and neighborhood organizations team up.”

Each participating bookstore has the chance to curate its respective events, selecting a theme and an author of its choice.

In addition to hearing renowned authors read from and discuss their work, guests will be treated to beautiful bridge views and

Brooklyn Heights Theater Company Offers Free Reading of ‘The Triumph of Love’

Daily coverage of Brooklyn writers, books and book events can be found in print (Brooklyn Daily Eagle) and online (brooklyneagle.com) and a dedicated blog, www.brooklynbookbeat.com 12 • Brooklyn Eagle • Friday, June 14, 2013

Theater 2020, a Brooklyn Heights-based professional theater company, will present this Saturday a free reading of Pierre Marivaux’s "The Triumph of Love", adapted by Rod McLucas. Beginning at 1:30 p.m. at the Brooklyn Heights Branch of the Brooklyn Public Library, the reading of this classic comedy is part of Theater 2020’s Hearthside Reading Series.

Marivaux is part of the great French canon that includes Moliere, Racine and Beaumarchais. The Triumph of Love is his best-known play, and has been produced all over the country by prominent regional theatres.

In the play, a beautiful and bold princess falls head over heels for a man who is her sworn enemy: Agis, the rightful heir to the Princess’ stolen kingdom. To get close to Agis, who is exiled in a secluded villa, the Princess will have to break all the rules and even bend her gender, disguising herself as a young male scholar. She also must outwit Agis’ life-long protectors: the rational philosopher Hermocrates and his scientific sister Leontine, who have raised Agis to avoid all things romantic. Using her powerful talent for seduction (and slipping between male and female person-

alities) the Princess takes aim at Agis but, in the process, accidentally winds up engaged to three different people. Now, as she tries to unravel her wildly tangled web, the Princess discovers love’s many strands: from deceit to sweetness, from cruelty to ecstasy.

Reservations not necessary, but may be made at: theater2020@gmail.com Doors will open at 1 p.m., and the reading will take place at the first floor Theater Room of the Brooklyn Public Library, Brooklyn Heights Branch (280 Cadman Plaza West, between Pierrepont and Tillary Streets).

Under a bill proposed by Assemblyman David I. Weprin (D-Fresh Meadows), adult adoptees in New York state would be able to obtain a copy of their original birth certificates and a medical history form.

The bill would also provide a birth parent with a form to let the child know if the parent wanted to be contacted directly by the child or through an intermediary.

Weprin, along with cosponsor Senator Velmanette Montgomery (D-Brooklyn) and other representatives, held a joint press conference with the New York Statewide Adoption Reform's “Unsealed Initiative” at City Hall to support the “Bill of Adoptee Rights.”

“It is very important to me for all people, especially adoptees, to have ready access to their birth certificates and birth family medical records for their health and the wellbeing of their families,” Senator Montgomery said in a

statement.

“New York State adoptees are currently denied their original birth certificates and in turn knowledge of their original families, ethnicities, medical histories and more,” said Senator Andrew J. Lanza (RStaten Island). “No one should be denied the right to obtain information about themselves concerning medical or other personal information of the nature involved here.”

Amending the existing New York adoption laws would provide adoptees ages 18 and older with birth certificates and in many cases information about religious and ethnic ancestry as well as medical information.

Under the bill, the adoptee would receive a certified copy of his or her original birth certificate, according to the language of the Senate version of the bill. The copy would state: “This is a certified copy of an original birth certificate. This original birth certificate has been superseded by another certificate on file with the appro-

priate government agency.”

Joyce Bahr, president of Adoption Reform's Unsealed Initiative, urged the Assembly and the Senate to pass the bill, saying, “No other group of U.S. citizens has their identities withheld by the state. The Bill of Adoptee Rights gives all adult adoptees the right to a non-certified copy of their birth certificate as well as family medical records, and does so with respect to birth parents, who will have the option to file a contact preference if they choose so.”

Currently, a New York adoptee cannot access his or her original birth certificate unless they go through the courts, and even then, the outcome is not guaranteed.

An online petition urging passage of the bill has garnered more than 8,000 signatures at PetitionOnline.com Maine, New Hampshire, Oregon, Alabama and Rhode Island have passed open records legislation; Kansas and Alaska are the only states that have never sealed records.

Brooklyn Bar Association Inducts New President

By Rob Abruzzese Brooklyn Eagle

The Brooklyn Bar Association inducted its new President, Andrew Fallek, as well as its newly elected officers and trustees during an event in the Ceremonial Court-

room at Brooklyn Borough Hall on Wednesday.

“I feel so much pride to be the President of the Brooklyn Bar Association at a time when Brooklyn is doing so well,” Fallek said after he was introduced by immedi-

ate past President Domenick Napoletano. “Recently Brooklyn has become known for its small boutique shops and restaurants, but it’s always had great boutique law firms that have provided excellent craft legal services.”

The new officers inducted include Rebecca Woodland as President-elect, Arthur L. Aidala as First Vice President, Hon. Frank R. Seddio as Second Vice President, Aimee L. Richter as Secretary, and David M. Chidekel as Treasurer.

The new trustees in the class of 2016 include Elaine N. Avery, Armena D. Gayle, David J. Hernandez, Richard Klass, Anthony J. Lamberti, Deborah Lashley, and Joseph S. Rosato.

Borough President Marty Markowitz spoke at the event and was quick to point out that just as Brooklyn stole the Nets from New Jersey, it has now stolen New Jersey resident Fallek as well. Markowitz then presented Fallek with a Nets hat and shirt.

“People used to run out of Brooklyn to Jersey, but now it’s so cool that they’re coming back,” Markowitz said.

Past President Steven D. Cohn introduced the elected officials and bar leaders before remarks were given. Hon. Ellen Spodek and Past President John Lonuzzi gave remarks before the new trustees and officials were sworn in.

“Fallek possesses all of the qualities, including intelligence and patience, to excel as President of the bar association,” Judge Spodek said. “He’s like Fox News – fair and balanced – except he actually is.”

“Andy was afraid to ask me to speak today because he was afraid I would roast him,” Lonuzzi joked. “I assured him that I would indeed roast him and there is so much potential material, but we’ll have to save that for another day.”

Hon. Barry Kamins introduced the new trustees, but not before he gave some kind words about Fallek as well. “For his entire career, 18 • Brooklyn Eagle • Friday, June 14, 2013

he’s been an attorney of principal, conscience, and skill,” Kamins said. “The Brooklyn Bar is thrilled to have him as President and we could not be in better hands.”

Fallek commended Napoletano for his work as

President, pointed out that the CLEs have been much improved under him, and congratulated him for his work on the first golf outing, which is expected to be an annual event. He said that while he doesn’t foresee mak-

ing big changes as the new President, he will be looking into everything to see where improvements can be made.

“I don’t believe in reinventing the wheel, but I do believe in checking the tires,” Fallek said.

As part of the worldwide bicentennial tribute to Italy’s great composer Giuseppe Verdi (1813-1901), on Saturday June 8, the Regina Opera presented his masterpiece, “La Traviata,” for the finale of its 43rd season at its new theatre at Our Lady of Perpetual Help (OLPH) on 60th Street and 6th Avenue in Sunset Park.

When the curtain opened and Maestro Scott Jackson Wiley’s baton brought forth the familiar strains of the prelude, the magic began. The title role of the courtesan Violetta Valery, based on Camille in “The Lady of the Camellias” by Alexandre Dumas fils, was sung and acted to perfection by soprano Andrea Bargabos. The drinking song “Libiamo,” sung with her eager young suitor, Alfredo, was a blend of bravura fireworks, with Ms. Bargabos revealing a creamy voice of great beauty, agility and power.

Her floating tones and portamentos of “Ah, Fors’è Lui” were astonishing, and Ms. Bargabos scored a triumph in a thrilling “Sempre Libera,” with ornamental phrasing and coloratura fireworks, and an electrifying high E-flat at the end! Ms. Bargabos ability to “swell” and diminish on a high note showed remarkable breath control.

In the second act, Ms. Bargabos’ defiance to the elder Germont’s insis-

LIQUOR LICENSE

tence that she leave Alfredo to preserve the family honor, and her ultimate yielding to his request, was heartbreaking. Her “Alfredo, di questo core” in the third act gripped our hearts with an outpouring of anguish and vocal gold. Her “Addio del Passato” in the final act and “Ah! Gran Dio!” and her sudden burst of life before her fatal collapse was riveting. Her letter scene was penned to last forever in memory. Ms. Bargabos was a Violetta for the ages!

Her Alfredo was the promising

er was a strong Baron Duphol. His resounding glove slap of Alfredo at the end of Act 2 was great theater.

The rest of the cast included Nicholas Connelly as Marquis d’Obigny; Jonathan Dauermann as a resonant Dr. Grenvil, a physician; Christina Hourihan as Violetta’s loyal, sympathetic maid Annina; Bryan Ribeiro’s Giuseppe, a servant; Daniel Kerr as a commissioner; and the multi-talented Wayne Olsen as Flora’s servant.

The production featured bright and colorful period costumes by Julia

young tenor David Bailey. Bailey’s singing in the “Libiamo” revealed a purely lyric sound with a bit of bite to it. Bailey’s singing of “De’ Mei Bollenti Spiriti” at the beginning of the second act was nicely performed, and he hit a solid high C in the cabaletta that followed. His plangent outpouring in their final duet “Parigi, o Cara” had ardent sweetness. Bailey’s defiance of the elder Germont was effective, and his remorse was touching.

The role of the elder Germont was in the secure hands of Ricardo Rosa, whose rich, round and mellow baritone blended well with Violetta in the “Piangi” duet. Germont’s exquisite singing of “Di Provenza Il Mar, Il Suol“ conjured up the great baritones of the past, and his remorse and request for forgiveness at the finale struck our hearts.

Mezzo Jennie Mescon was a splendid Flora Bervoix, friend to Violetta, and vibrant baritone Kevin Rockow-

The chorus sang with power and precision. The plush sets, designed by Linda Lehr, of Violetta’s Paris salon with its ribald parties, the Act 2 floral gardens, and the final act’s grim bedchamber, were remarkable. The stage direction, also by Linda Lehr, brought us into the drama of salons and the splendor of Violetta’s world with fluidity and abandon.

The brilliant conducting of Maestro Scott Jackson Wiley and the 33 splendid musicians of the Regina Orchestra kept things going at a brisk pace. The strings, so prominent in the preludes and throughout, were in the sterling hands of concertmaster Yelena Savranskaya. Maestro Wiley brought out all of the nuance and poignancy of this magnificent score. We look forward to the 44th season of opera at Regina!

Brooklyn Becomes First Borough To Require Mediation in Civil Cases

By Charisma L. Miller, Esq. Brooklyn Daily Eagle

Brooklyn Supreme Court ushered in a new project Thursday requiring civil cases to pass through a mediation process prior to proceeding to trial. The first of its kind, the mandatory mediation project hopes to alleviate some of the costs and other strains that civil litigation places on Brooklyn’s court system.

“Brooklyn has over 54,000 cases pending, which is more than any other county in New York” Brooklyn Supreme Court Administrative Judge for Civil Matters Lawrence Knipel told the Brooklyn Daily Eagle. “Mandatory mediation will hopefully reduce to time and financial costs of a trial not only for the court but for the attorneys and parties involved.”

Typically, once all parties have requested and received evidence from either side, deposed witnesses, and conducted necessary investigations, a note of issue is filed and the case is calendared for trial.

Mandatory meditation, however, will apply after the discovery phase and prior to the calendaring of a trial date. The rationale, Knipel explained, is that once discovery is complete, the parties will have an

Brooklyn Administrative Judge for Civil Matters Lawrence Knipel and retired Supreme Court Justice Jules Spodek. Eagle photo by Mario Belluomo opportunity to mediate the issues of the case in the hope of reaching a settlement.

This innovative attempt to reduce the time and costs involved in civil

litigation has been well received by Brooklyn attorneys, albeit with some reservation. “It is always a good idea to try to have mediation as soon as practicable,” said Gary Zucker,

named partner at Zucker & Bennett, P.C. “Hopefully some of these cases that would otherwise back up the trial calendar can be settled quickly and efficiently.”

The first round of cases that will be affected by mandatory mediation are all cases involving the New York City Transit Authority. “We wanted to narrow to scope for the initial cases selected for the pilot program,” Knipel said. “There are about 10-12 Transit Authority cases a week, and we decided that that was a manageable number.”

“The success of the pilot program will depend on the Transit Authority,” Zucker noted. “The City of New York has an aggressive settlement policy. It will depend on whether or not the Transit Authority will approach cases in the same manner and make a concerted effort to settle.” Zucker also noted that the mediators will also play a large role in the success of the program.

The mediators will be selected from a group of volunteers who will work without compensation. Former Supreme Court Justice Jules L. Spodek, father to current Brooklyn Supreme Court Justice Ellen Spodek, will serve as the project’s first mediator. “It is always better when all parties agree to settle,” noted Knipel.

“I expect mandatory meditation to be effective in weeding out the trial backlog in Brooklyn Supreme Court,” said Knipel. Knipel hopes to soon expand the mediation to include a wide variety of civil litigation cases.

B’klyn Teacher in Sex Scandal Case Pleads Guilty

By Charisma L. Miller, Esq. Brooklyn Daily Eagle

Erin Sayar, former English teacher at James Madison High School in Marine Park, has pleaded guilty to sexual assault charges steaming from accusations that she engaged in a sexual relationship with her student, Kevin Eng. Sayar, 36, subsequently turned herself in to Brooklyn’s Special Victims Unit on the eight criminal counts of statutory rape, 16 counts of sexual abuse of a minor, and other related charges. She was released on $10,000 bail.

After appearing in Brooklyn Supreme Court, Criminal Term, Sayar has pleaded guilty to the charges and will receive a 10-year probation sentence.

Despite the end of Sayar’s criminal case, there is still a civil case pending against Sayar and the New York City Department of

Erin Sayar, former teacher at James Madison High School Education for their alleged role in the assault and battery of Eng. The suit, brought by Brooklyn attorney Bruce Baron on behalf of his clients Kevin Eng and his mother Maureen Eng, alleges that the City

20 •• Brooklyn Brooklyn Daily Eagle, June 14, 2013 20 Daily Eagle • Friday, June 14, 2013

of New York in general, and the New York City Department of Education in particular, were negligent in hiring Sayar and that they failed to report or investigate allegations of sexual abuse.

Eng and his mother are seeking monetary relief for the damages they claim to have endured as a result of the humiliation, mental anguish and emotional distress the sex scandal has brought. The suit also asks for punitive damages against Sayar and the Department of Education.

“The Eng family is thankful to Brooklyn District Attorney Charles Joe Hynes for securing swift justice against Sayar for her unlawful acts,” Baron said in a statement.

“We now look forward to aggressively pursuing all defendants responsible in the civil matter pending in Supreme Court Kings County.”

Associated Press

The U.S. Justice Department has treaded carefully into the debate over the New York Police Department's stop, question and frisk policy, telling a federal judge that it strongly endorses an independent monitor to oversee changes should she decide civil rights violations have occurred.

Lawyers for the Justice Department filed a 21-page statement of interest in the case late Wednesday, the last day to file paperwork. The court papers say the government was weighing in “only in order to assist the court on the issue of remedy, and only should it find that NYPD's stop-and-frisk practices are unlawful.” It did not say whether it believed the practices to be unconstitutional.

“The department has extensive experience working to ensure that police services are delivered in an effective, constitutional manner,” the Justice Department said in a statement following the court filing. “Our statement of interest is intended to share our experience relevant to fashioning an appropriate remedy, should it be required.”

Elevator Robbery In Coney Island

The NYPD is seeking the public's assistance in finding a suspect wanted for a robbery in Coney Island.

On Saturday, June 8 at 12:50 p.m., the suspect, described as a Hispanic teen about 5-foot-5 and weighing 180 pounds, followed a 57-year-old woman onto the elevator of her building. The suspect got off first, and when the victim started to get off, he grabbed her pocketbook. When she tried to fight back, he pushed her to the floor and fled.

Anyone with information about this robbery is asked to call the NYPD’s Crime Stoppers Hotline at (800) 577-TIPS.

U.S. District Court Judge Shira Sheindlin is considering whether to order reforms to the police policy after a 10-week bench trial in which a dozen people testified that they were stopped by police solely because of their race.

About 5 million people have been stopped by New York police in the past decade, most of them black and Hispanic men. Lawyers for the four men who sued say hundreds of thousands of those stops were unconstitutional, and they want a monitor to oversee changes to police department training, supervision and policy.

Brooklyn Welcomes Kidd as Nets Coach

Savino: Let’s Drop NYS Abortion Fight

By Michael Gormley Associated Press

A key abortion rights’ Democrat says it’s time to drop Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s abortion legislation, a move that would likely end the protracted debate on it this year.

Sen. Diane Savino (DBrooklyn/Staten Island) said Thursday that the abortion fight should no longer threaten the other nine points of Cuomo’s proposal to strengthen women’s rights in these final days of the legislative session. Cuomo and the women’s rights coalition he organized have so far refused to separate the abortion proposal from other more popular issues, including pay equity and better protection of domestic violence victims.

“The continued rally for a choice bill to come to the Senate floor will neither change nor alter what is currently protected for women

Founded in 1841 by Isaac Van Anden

under existing law,” said Savino. “Ironically, by continuing to beat this drum in their effort to convince us that this is an historic bill that must be put to a vote — that even they claim does nothing — they are playing right into the hands of the anti-choice movement.”

Supporters of the proposal said it would simply bring 1970 state law into step with the protections of prevailing federal law under the 1973 Roe v. Wade court decision, which abortion rights activists fear will be struck down by the U.S. Supreme Court.

But opponents were ignited by Cuomo’s fiery exclamation in January for the issue in his State of the State speech which opponents took as a signal that he wanted to expand abortions after six months of pregnancy up to the day of birth.

INSTEAD OF FENDING OFF opposing point guards, new Brooklyn Nets head coach Jason Kidd has to deal with the New York media contingent. The future Hall of Fame point guard ranks second all-time in assists and steals, is the only player ever to put up at least 15,000 points, 10,000 assists and 7,000 rebounds, and is third in career triple-doubles with 107 in the regular season and 11 more in the playoffs.

LICH Supporters Demand Action by Gov

By Mary Frost Brooklyn Eagle

Saying that the life of Long Island College Hospital (LICH) has reached a “critical” moment, supporters of the beleaguered Cobble Hill institution have started a letter-writing campaign to Gov. Andrew Cuomo, and will be holding a fundraiser on Friday.

“The governor needs to take charge. So far, he has refused to meet with our local elected officials,” said the Brooklyn Heights Association in a statement. “We need to show Governor Cuomo that we expect him, as our elected representative, to act in the best interests of the

western Brooklyn residential and business community.”

“Lean in by speaking out!”

BHA told its members.

“SUNY Downstate has withdrawn its closure plan but not its closure behavior,” BHA President Jane McGroarty said in a letter to the governor. “It is starving LICH in terms of personnel and house staff in violation of the TRO order [temporary restraining order] by the NYS Supreme Court.”

The Concerned Physicians of Long Island College Hospital and the NYS Nurses Association have put together a fundraiser for Friday at 6 p.m. at 320 Atlantic Ave. to raise money

for the continuing legal battle.

Created in Brooklyn Photo Exhibition at BPL Profiles Brooklyn’s Best and Brightest Photos by Duchaine Feature Brooklynites of Past 20 Years

A new exhibition by photographer Randy Duchaine, which opened on June 13 at the Brooklyn Public Library’s Dweck Center at the Central Branch at Grand Army Plaza, profiles more than 90 prominent, unique and interesting Brooklynites from the last 20 years.

Titled “Created in Brooklyn,” the photos feature a diverse group of Brooklyn’s best and brightest, from artists and architects to entrepreneurs and small business owners.

Those featured in “Created in Brooklyn” include:

• SCRATCHBread’s Matthew Tilden: part restaurant, part food stand, part culinary science lab, SCRATCHBread has taken Brooklyn’s food scene by storm – especially its famed egg sandwich.

• Sixpoint Brewery’s Shane Welch, representing a microbrew born – and brewed – in Red Hook, Brooklyn since 2004.

• Antique Vehicle Collector Lenny Shiller: This real-estate executive and president of the Antique Auto Associate of Brooklyn keeps 58 cars in a 12,300-square-foot ga-

rage near his home. He’s depicted riding in the oldest seltzer truck in New York.

“My photographs represent a diversity of people in Brooklyn who make or create unique experiences,” said Duchaine. “People come here to live their dreams, express themselves, start a business and contribute to society through their talents. They represent the spirit of America, a sense of independence and the ability

Hi Ho Spritzer! The Seltzer Man Rides Again!

By Trudy Whitman Brooklyn Eagle

Since he lived to the age of 99, my father had many years to regale his family with stories of growing up in Brooklyn and on the Lower East Side at the beginning of the 20th century. So that both parents could work, as a toddler, he was babysat by a vegetable cart driver and a cart horse named Pfeffer. My dad, a practiced raconteur, delighted us with his vivid memories of making the rounds with these unusual guardians. Our family misses the stories of the vegetable man and of the coalman and the iceman and the milkman who schlepped their loads up steep flights of tenement steps. But my father and the colorful deliverymen of the past are gone.

Or are they?

In April, The New York Times ran a story by Corey Kilgannon entitled “As Old as the Bottles.” It was a character study of Eli Miller, an 80-year-old seltzer delivery man, who has been bringing the fizzy stuff to thirsty Brooklynites for over 50 years. Miller relayed that at one time there were close to 500 seltzer guys in the city. That number has shrunk to fewer than five, all of whom fill their bottles at the last seltzer factory in town, Gomberg Seltzer Works, in Canarsie.

According to the article, Miller has two keepsakes in the front seat of his seltzer van: a sample of his father’s stationery and a copy of “The

showcased at a gallery on 57th Street in Manhattan. Three solo exhibits have been hung at the Southern Vermont Art Center in Manchester, Vermont, and in 2009, Rush was one of 37 artists highlighted in a traveling exhibition about Lake Champlain. His previous foray into picture books was as illustrator for Kurt Aldag’s “Some Things Never Change.”

Although the original “The Seltzer Man” went out of print at the end of the ’90s, Rush said there continued to be a demand for the book, with unused copies selling for $70 on Amazon. So he recently approached the publisher with the idea of buying back the rights to “The Seltzer

Seltzer Man,” a children’s picture book about Miller, the son. The seltzer man’s father helped him on his route, dying of a heart attack at age 72 while delivering a case of seltzer to a customer. The book was written and illustrated by Ken Rush, an artist and printmaker and a fine arts and art history teacher at Packer Collegiate Institute in Brooklyn Heights.

Rush, a Carroll Gardens resident, is a longtime customer and a big fan of Eli Miller. And his gentle narrative, which stars Eli and Rush’s two daughters—thinly disguised— first published in 1993 by Macmillan Publishing Company (now owned

by Simon & Schuster), is about to be reissued as a trade paperback. The story of how two little girls con-

vince the seltzer man to keep on truckin’ when he decides to retire is illustrated by Rush with colors so soft, they could have only be conjured up at dusk or dawn. The book is also a paean to Brooklyn, with pictures of our bridges, our homes, and of Coney Island.

In a previous interview with this newspaper regarding an exhibit of his paintings and drawings on Atlantic Avenue, Ken Rush revealed that moving to Brooklyn in 1971 opened up a “thrilling, gritty experience that immediately became part of my paintings.” He named Edward Hopper as a major early influence, but added that throughout his career, he has been a “repository” for everything he sees.

From 2001-2009, the artist was

Man” in order to self-publish. Instead, Simon & Schuster offered to reissue the book, a proposition that Rush was happy to accept. It is scheduled to ship to stores on June 24, and BookCourt, 163 Court Street, will host a signing and relaunch party in the fall.

The days of the New York City deliveryman may be numbered, but as long as Eli Miller’s truck jangles through the streets of Brooklyn Heights and Cobble Hill, and as long as Ken Rush’s book continues to delight children, it is comforting to know that—for now at least— the seltzer man cometh.
