To the Editor: One of the best kept secrets, it seems, in the heart of East Passyunk Crossing is the weekly invitation to attend free Italian cinema at the headquarters of the Sicilian Association of Philadelphia at 1614 E. Passyunk Ave. The initials on the awning, A.R.S., stand for Associazione Regionale Siciliana, but one does not have to be Sicilian or join the club to take part in this treat. It is open to the public. The movies, which last about two-and-a-half hours, have English subtitles (some of which may or may not match exactly what is being said). They are all filmed either in Sicily or the mainland and tell stories that pertain sometimes to historic events or customs . The first film, “The Escort,� which launched the series on Jan. 28, was introduced by attorney and Daily News columnist Christine Flowers, and tells a fictional story

based on a real case where police had to guard, with their lives, judges who were being hunted by the Mafia. The audience did not number more than 15 people. In the second week’s offering, the story pit two brothers against each other during the Vietnam War era. One is communist and the other fascist. It is outstretched arm versus clenched fist. Lots of fighting and kissing, yelling and screaming, which one brother, ahem, tries to drown out with a radio. Smaller audience this time. The third movie featured a wannabe farmer whose life ambition is to own one of those magnificent and famous blood orange farms in Sicily, where the fruit is so valuable it can be used as currency. Stealing blood oranges, as he often does, could result in a bloody nose or a stay in jail. How he achieves his dream is the gist of the story. The audience was even smaller. These immensely entertain-

?cSabW]\W\U OcbV]`Wbg To the Editor: The governor of Pennsylvania has taken on false authority to halt the death penalty from Pennsylvania law. The legislatures of state who represent the people of their respective state make the laws for their state in our Democratic republic governments as declared by Abraham Lincoln in his 1863 address at Gettysburg, government of, by and for the people, in reference to the federal government, and is true for our state and local governments. Our laws are written and passed to reflect the will of the people from whom all authority proceed through our god-given right to self-government referred to in our

Declaration of Independence, not self-given false authority of one or many politicians. Such acts weaken the authority of the legislature and the people and make the legislature to be salaried useless drones. No governor of any state has authority to void or repeal a law requiring a death penalty that has been passed by the state legislature. It is an illegitimate, despotic act and that of a tyrant on the part of all governors who have done this. The legislature and courts of Pennsylvania should condemn this despotic act and relevant departments, bureaucracies and agencies should ignore it. This letter has been sent to various members of Pennsylvania’s government. /ZT`SR 3aaSf A]cbV >VWZORSZ^VWO

BVOb¸a S\bS`bOW\[S\bTo the Editor: I’ve always been a major movie buff, and I’m sure I always will be, but quite honestly, I was very disappointed with the Academy Awards this year. When did these award shows that are supposed to be recognizing actors for their outstanding performances become so political? The Oscars are meant to be a podium for talent and art, and nothing more. There is a time and place for politics, and I do not believe this is the venue. I do not have the same feeling in watching as I have in the past because it is getting to be boring and completely inappropriate. This Hollywood production should be enjoyable, not depressing, so this process should not be muddled up with the most recent cause. As hard as Neil Patrick Harris tried to lighten up the night, it just fell flat in my opinion. Watching a movie in a theater or even in your home is a small escape from reality, and we should want to keep it that way, let us not take everything so seriously and keep the focus on what it is meant to be ... entertainment.

The Philadelphia Police Department and the FBI are desiring the public’s input in bringing to justice a man who robbed a Lower Moyamensing bank Tuesday. At approximately 10:29 a.m., the atlarge figure entered Santander Bank, 2701 S. 10th St., and handed a threatening demand note to a teller. Receiving an undisclosed amount of cash, he left the area of the bank, with authorities not aware of the direction in which he fled. Citizens should consider the individual armed and dangerous. To report information, call the FBI at 215-418-4000, text PPDTIP (773847) or visit phillypolice.com/forms.

EOabSR g]cbV A 20-year-old local will spend up to 17 years in prison for his role in a West Passyunk shootout. On Feb. 17, Emmanuel Whitmore, whom court records list as having a 19145 zip code, received his sentence based on a March 2013 incident involving two men. In the matter, Whitmore and the others exchanged gunfire outside It’z a Kidz Thang day care, 1848 Point Breeze Ave. One bullet struck a man on the street, but no children or workers suffered injuries.

On Sept. 29, 2013, the 24-year-old, reportedly inebriated after time with a female friend, supposedly operated a 2000 Gold Buick Park Avenue along Roosevelt Boulevard’s inner drive from Cottman Avenue yet headed northbound in the southbound lanes of travel. Authorities contend she collided head on with an ’03 Silver Mazda MPV containing a three-member family. The trio received transport to Albert Einstein Hospital, where the mother, Althea Taylor, succumbed to her injuries. Her husband and their 3-year-old daughter saw personnel for non-life threatening injuries. Law enforcement officials charged Knight with homicide by a vehicle while driving under the influence, involuntary manslaughter and simple assault.

At 4:30 p.m. Feb. 13, police responded to a robbery-with-gunshots-heard call on the 1200 block of Ellsworth Street, Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. Finding the complainant with a gunshot wound to his right leg, they arranged transport to Thomas Jefferson University Hospital. Detectives learned from the victim that an unknown figure approached him on the 1300 block of Ellsworth Street and demanded “Give me money and your cell phone,� pointing a gun at his prey to intimidate him. The complainant ran toward a witness’ vehicle coming down the street but felt pain in his leg after hearing a gunshot. The offender, Tolliver said, took the man’s bag, containing identification, paperwork and a hat, before fleeing southbound on 12th Street. The injured individual described the attacker as black, 18 to 22 years old and 6 foot; having a dark complexion and a thin build; and being clean-shaven.

esperate times call for desperate measures. While Ss. John Neumann and Maria Goretti High School, 1736 S. 10th St., isn’t necessarily desperate, it’s close. Enter Bruce Robinson, a 59-year-old businessman without much background in education, who is pulling out all kinds of tricks to turn the once-thriving East Passyunk Crossing educational institution into a desirable school to which any South Philadelphia parent would want to send a child. “The school has experienced a steep decline in enrollment over the last decade, and it’s not only Neumann-Goretti, but many of the Archdiocese schools have been in decline,� Robinson said. “We need to figure out how to stabilize enrollment and make this school vibrant again.� When the all-male Neumann, formerly 2600 Moore St., merged with the allfemale Goretti at the latter’s location in 2004, the enrollment was around 1,300. “We’re down to about 500 students now,� Robinson confirmed. Neumann was founded in 1934 as Southeast Catholic and Goretti in ’55 – they’re both treasured institutions in South Philly, schools where generations of South Philadelphians matriculated. But charter schools, Archdiocesan disarray and neighborhood demographics have weakened the combined school’s reputation as a thriving school. Robinson took the reins last September and even converted to Roman Catholicism a couple months later with an expedited adult confirmation process. In the months

since he moved into the head honcho office, he’s taken an aggressive approach to converting Neumann-Goretti into a worldclass college preparatory academy. “College classes, SAT prep courses for juniors and PSAT prep integrated into the curriculum, an internship program where students can get work and life experience with major Center City corporations and some tuition-assistance while doing that,� Robinson listed as some of his immediate tweaks. Beginning next fall, administrators will add college prep and honors courses and when he began, the school offered five AP courses; they already offer 21. “We want to be a premiere coed college prep school. We’ve taken a very proactive approach to initiate change, and we’ve gotten support from the Archdiocse to do that,� Robinson said. What about money? How can he afford all these grand changes? It seems the short answer is support from Faith in the Future, a private nonprofit that the Catholic Church hired to handle its high schools for five years. The organization fundraises millions annually and gets healthy contributions from the Philadelphia School Partnership, which has distributed $35 million to parochial, charter and traditional public schools. Robinson may need as much as $1 million to initiate all the changes he wants to maintain and further next year: training teachers in SAT prep; recruiting professors to teach college-level courses at the school; outfitting students with modern technology; and instituting a rather progressive idea for a technology and en-

trepreneurship lab. “The other thing that we’re looking to do is to create a magnet school situation for innovation and entrepreneurship. What we’re going to do is offer more dynamic electives where kids can have an opportunity to be their own boss and add courses along that line,� Robinson explained. “You could be interested in the food service industry field and may say ‘Hey, I want to create something where I market a product or run a restaurant’ – you need to know finances and write a business plan and negotiate and know legal documents.� Three years ago, the Archdiocese of

Philadelphia announced that it would close four of its 17 high schools and close or merge 46 out of 156 elementary schools. On a larger scale, in 1961 approximately 250,000 Philly-area students were enrolled in parochial schools; it’s down to closer to 57,500 now. Charter schools have something to do with that. “We’re looking to add more rigor to our entire curriculum and not just by eliminating [splitting students into divisions of success] but throughout the entire school. We want to make it easy for people when they’re choosing a high school to understand exactly who we are and what we stand for,� the Drexel University business administration alum said. “What we have to focus on is not only kids going to college but kids flourishing in college.� The Neumann-Goretti tuition hovers around $7,500 to $8,000, and the school attracts families of all faiths and backgrounds. “We’re diverse ethnically, religiously, we’re equally male and female – I think that’s one of our strengths.� +(* Contact Staff Writer Bill Chenevert at bchenevert@southphillyreview.com or ext. 117.

2=E< E7B6 2;1 Q]\bW\cSR T`][ ^OUS McDaniels gave an animated and impassioned presentation in the school’s auditorium as part of the nonprofit Determined to Educate’s “Conversations with Legends� and was joined by Universal’s founder, legendary recording industry pioneer Kenny Gamble. “Inside all of you is something that was given to you to use to change the world,� McDaniels said. “There’s a special unique gift in each one of you so that you can change the world — you’re put on this earth for a purpose.� DMC’s words were preceded by a short introductory film that put his presence in perspective. He’s one-third of one of the very first hip-hop groups to take the U.S. by storm in the first years of the 1980s with smashes like “King of Rock,� “Rock Box,� “It’s Like That,� “Down With the King� and “It’s Tricky.� In fact, he was a student at St. John’s University in Queens when “Sucka Emcee� came on in the lunchroom, and his classmates went nuts. His reaction? “I said this ain’t gonna last.� Gamble and McDaniels were able to focus their remarks on a few messages: Stay in school and focus one’s education on a special skillset; it may be foolish to try to be the next big star but there’s always a team behind that next big star; and no one’s going to come along and offer you a future on a silver platter. A student performance kicked off the event when senior Nafis Johnson performed a track that he’s reportedly gotten on Spotify and is for sale on iTunes. The icons were impressed. “Oh, I didn’t know you were gonna flow like THAT. He was spittin’ positivity — I respect that,� McDaniels said. “You took the initiative of your own to get it to iTunes and Spotify because the industry is a crazy place right now,� Gamble added. Hot 107.9’s Laiya St. Clair performed the role of facilitator and asked the two to

detail their come-up before they became household names. “I grew up in South Philly. I went to school at E.M. Stanton School [1700 Christian St.] and graduated from Barratt Junior High School [1599 Wharton St.],� Gamble, who stressed the importance of making one’s way through life lawfully, said. “You can’t do anything in the world without money, and I’m talking about making legal money.� For the pioneer, it included working at grocery stores, washing dishes and being a technician at Jefferson Hospital. He never let go of his musical dreams, and as he told senior Jasmine Smith later, “you can do both. I was still writing songs, but I had to pick up that check from Jefferson Hospital every two weeks.� Of course, Gamble and Leon Huff would go on to form Philadelphia International Records in ’71 and took the world by storm producing and writing hits for The

Intruders, The Delfonics, The O’Jays and The Stylistics. “We started our own record company because there wasn’t much opportunity,� Gamble, lighting a fire under his schools’ scholars, said. “You can’t sit around and say they won’t let me do this or they won’t let me do that — you have the power to do whatever you wanna do. You have to have patience and be committed to what you’re doing.�

“FIRST TO GO gold, first to go platinum, first on MTV, first with sneaker deals, first on the cover of Rolling Stone,� McDaniels rattled off a few of his accomplishments when student-emcee Nasif asked DMC what it was like on the way to the top. “Here’s a little info, lesson one: Don’t follow your friends. You can take their advice. Here’s another lesson, persistence: believe in yourself, and show somebody that you believe in what you’ve got is valu-

able,â€? the 50-year-old mogul told Nasif. Perhaps the most resonant message was that Audenried scholars, who focus on specifics through their STEM Academy, Hospitality and Human Service Academy, and Arts, Entertainment and Communication programs, should aim at attainable targets. “Today, I believe, you have to be specific,â€? Gamble, who says people ask him for a job regularly but rarely know how to offer their specialty, said. “I’ll do anything [they say] — no, you have to be something. A teacher, a doctor, a lawyer, a cook, a mechanic, a dentist, you can sharpen your skills, and you won’t be just someone with a diploma.â€? McDaniels abetted this later, saying “We need someone to be the sound man, or a lawyer so we don’t get jerked around when we sign the contract, or marketing people, audio and visual,â€? he went on. “This generation also needs to understand that there are careers in the career that you love. A lot of us have a habit of thinking I gotta be the singer or the rapper or I gotta be LeBron [James] — you don’t have to be Beyonce. Wouldn’t you like to be the boss that gets to boss Beyonce around? Like the director? All of us can’t be LeBron, but LeBron needs an agent.â€? Gamble compounded this by adding “you have to find out what you’re really good at doing and have a plan A and a plan B. Plan A is get as much education as you can on a specific topic — technology, that’s the future, you got to know technology,â€? the 71-yearold said. Before the stunningly-talented sophomore, Jofan Martin, concluded the afternoon with a spot-on performance of John Legend’s “All of Me,â€? McDaniels offered one more piece of advice. It came when St. Clair asked them to finish this line: “The reason that I am great is because ‌â€? To which McDaniels said “the reason that I am great is because one positive person has more power than a million negative people.â€? +(* Contact Staff Writer Bill Chenevert at bchenevert@southphillyreview.com or ext. 117.

PORTRAIT PHOTO BY RICHARD BARNES

cknowledging acting as “a mercenary profession,â€? Dan Hodge has derived dollars and distinction for diligently delighting audiences. Through Sunday, the happy hire is captivating crowds through the Walnut Street Theatre’s presentation of “Private Lives,â€? portraying Victor Prynne, a honeymooner whose bride unbridles her fiery feelings for her ex-husband as the latter male and his new spouse celebrate their union at the same seaside resort. “It’s a lovely experience that I feel very fortunate to have,â€? the 33-year-old resident of the 900 block of Sigel Street said of his role in the NoĂŤl Coward creation. “The work is tightly sprung and exquisitely built, so I’m having immense fun with it.â€? In making his fourth appearance for the Walnut, with “Private Livesâ€? marking his third mainstage show, the East Passyunk Crossing inhabitant has given Prynne clownish quali-

ties that complement the serious sides of the role. The character’s duality has led Hodge to dub the piece, which is celebrating the 85th anniversary of its world premiere, “a wonderful tragedy couched in a wonderful comedy for Victor.� That Prynne must prompt himself to alter his perceptions of love appeals to the actor, who, especially through his Philadelphia Artists’ Collective co-founding artistic director duties, has always cherished challenging patrons to ponder the human condition. “With something like ‘Private Lives,’ which Coward wrote to inspire laughs, the discoveries might not appear as tough to make as those within classical plays, but the lessons are no less vital to theatergoers,� Hodge, whose infatuation with William Shakespeare forms the foundation of his affinity for centuriesold compositions, said of situating oneself within a text. “The true discipline is getting to the root of a story, and that


B?<;IJOB;I definitely relies on making the audience necessary. Otherwise, we’re just up there rehearsing.� Hodge, who noted he gains inspirational satisfaction from empowering patrons, deeming that his ultimate vocation, is likewise feeling compelled, particularly since “Private Lives� is helping him to revisit and more intensely appreciate his comedic sensitivities. Due to deliver more laughs when the Collective stages the Broad Street Ministry-located “The Fair Maid of the West� come April, he rejoiced in being able to balance emotionally-heavy endeavors with lighter looks at the sublime gift of life. “No matter the sort of work, it’s key to respect how playable all these scripts and texts are,� Hodge said, emphasizing the eternal pull that classical pieces will exert. “There’s always more meaning to obtain from taking on projects with devotion to the craft and the edification of the audience as our big goals. We are just parts of the chain that connects art with humanity.� THE ERUDITE INDIVIDUAL looked to become a link in the figurative binder as a Texasreared youth. A voracious movie watcher, he experienced his “aha moment� at age 8, falling for the 1931 version of “Frankenstein.�

N a ] c b V ^ V W Z Z g ` S d W S e Q ] [

“I remember that my heart was breaking for the monster,� Hodge said, adding that when catching the credits, he decided “That’s what I want to do� upon seeing the name of fellow Walnut Street Theatre performer Boris Karloff as the titular behemoth. “The emotion he was able to convey stunned me, and I wanted to do just what he’d done in stirring up some reactions.� Following community theater efforts in the Lone Star State, he matriculated at the University of Evansville, with the Indianasituated institution’s renowned program enabling him to understand how to transform his enthusiasm into a bankable pursuit. “I learned how to work hard and smart,� Hodge said of his undergraduate instruction. “I wanted to develop my comprehension of the theater as a craft, and it’s at Evansville that I really feel I came into my own as an actor.� He also credits the school for his beatification of the Bard, touting the Shakespearean canon as matchless and timeless. “There is nothing like it, and it definitely requires something different within us to grasp the range of human experience contained there,� Hodge remarked. “So many years in, I’m still finding myself reading the plays and reading about the plays to pick up and share lessons.�

He used his high estimation of the playwright to inspire master’s degree studies at the University of San Diego. Entranced with training to honor classical plays, which he lauds for their immediacy and intimacy in how overseers staged them as opposed to the darkened settings that often mark and even plague contemporary creations, he felt he could offer that interest in earnest to Philadelphia audiences, establishing the Collective in 2008. “I knew that I could do work that I would be proud of here and that I could do it with very respectable artists,� Hodge, who has won two Barrymore Awards for his engrossing allegiance to excellence, said. “Through either classical or newer works, I’m always looking to evolve because complacency is death.� The never-flagging figure finds the former sort of productions far more engaging, with the Collective, which staged its first full production in ’10 and often relies on South Philadelphians for its pieces, issuing comprehensive challenges whose solutions do not come easily but whose resolution leaves everyone, especially Hodge and his peers, feeling part of a grander plot. Desiring cross-pollination within the arts, he aspires for more than personal merit in acting and directing, the latter an endeavor that he

is enjoying by helming “Othello� through March 14 for Curio Theatre Co., even asking an aspiring company creator to deliberate on what he wants to provide ticket purchasers. “I feel more judicious when directing,� Hodge, who will mesh his two chief talents in April when the Collective and the Wilma Theater co-present “The Rape of Lucrece,� his ’14 FringeArts Festival entry, said. “As I’ll always contend, though, progression is key.� Feeling extremely settled and confident in his abilities, the dual threat, who in late March will join wife Krista Apple-Hodge and others for the Wilma-based “Hamlet,� looks forward to connecting with more thespians to produce works that have stood the test of time and others that could age gracefully, too. “Early on in life, I didn’t even know someone could major in theater,� Hodge said. “Now, I can’t imagine life without it.� SPR

I remember the blackouts. Had to turn out all the lights at night during a blackout. Practice in case Hitler’s Luftwaffe ever got across the ocean and did a London blitz on us. The less light, the tougher for the Nazis to hit their targets. Scared lying under the blankets, not so much of the Germans as the dark. My father told me about the heroics of Colin Kelly, the American pilot whose plane was fatally hit so he dive-bombed into the smokestack of a Japanese battleship. Kelly was a genuine hero who sacrificed his life to save his crew, but it turns out he never did fly his plane into that ship. I only found that out now in researching this column. Fog of war. Saw all those war films with Dad. They were still running in our neighborhood movie house five or six years after the war ended. Not all the films had happy endings. Hard to put a happy ending on “Corregidor,� “Bataan� and “Wake Island.� All places where the Japanese took it to us in the Pacific in the early days after Pearl Harbor. John Garfield as Al Schmid in “Pride Of The Marines.� John Wayne, a former college football player who never served a day in the military — he was too important to the movie studio — became a war “hero� through his films. “The Fighting Seabees� and “Flying Tigers,� how we loved him. Even Superman fought the Nazis and Japs in the comics and short animated features. The “Japs� were always pictured as little diabolical yellow men — a racist stereotype — grinning through large, prominent teeth. The “Japs� could lure you into a trap by speaking perfect English at night while you were hiding in your dark foxhole. The “Japs� were always more nasty in their movie portrayals than even the Nazis. Experts in methods of torture. Served them right when we dropped not one, but two atomic bombs, the prevailing opinion. Hitler was a madman, but even after his demise, one heard whispers of respect for his war machine. The Holocaust wasn’t a familiar term, the subject never covered in my schooling. Hitler’s master scheme was only apparent in the Movietone News (The Eyes and Ears of the World) in black and white clips of gaunt skeleton-like prisoners being freed from concentration camps. Quick shots of the crematoriums. None of the abject horror really registering. Creepy anti-Semitism — �Hitler was right�— not in my predominantly Jewish neighborhood — helped me escape the virulent strain of Jew hatred. Mom was super-patriotic. Nothing she liked better than to sing those old flag-waving songs. They were real to her. More than a song. Dad warns me. War ahead with Stalin’s Soviet Union. Inevitable. Maybe Red China, too. Atomic bombs turn into Hydrogen bombs. Threat of extinction. Joe McCarthy on the horizon. SPR Comment at southphillyreview.com/opinion/ cardella.

As Paul in 1993’s “Six Degrees of Separation,� Will Smith tests the trust of an upscale New York couple. N 0g @ 9c`b =aS\Zc\R Movie Reviewer

ill Smith returns to the big screen tomorrow with his new flick, “Focus.� Here are five more Smith favorites.

AWf 2SU`SSa ]T AS^O`ObW]\ ''! Smith’s finest film to date was also his big breakthrough, wherein he played Paul, a con-artist who convinces a posh New York couple (Stockard Channing and Donald Sutherland) that he’s chums with their Ivy League kids — and the son of Sidney Poitier. Paul’s infiltration of an Upper West Side clan does more than move him up the social ladder — it upends the family’s social views. 7\RS^S\RS\QS 2Og ''$ Before movies about creatures blowing up cities were a dime a dozen, Roland Emmerich had viewers gobsmacked with his alien-invasion disasterpiece, which saw the White House gloriously blown to smithereens. Smith played a military pilot who formed an unlikely partnership with a plucky nerd (Jeff Goldblum), and their respective brawn and brains likely saved the next landmark. 0OR 0]ga 77 ! Say what you will about Michael Bay (namely, that he’s a greedy, sexist, manboy of a filmmaker), but the director sure knows how to put on a chic spectacle. In this sequel to Bay’s 1995 hit, Smith and Martin Lawrence reprise their roles as Miami cops who might kill each other before the bad guys. Bay ups the ante with epic action sequences, like a car chase involving a boat on a trailer and vehicles that feel like they’re whizzing overhead.

BVS >c`acWb ]T 6O^^g\Saa $ Smith earned his second Oscar nod (following 2001’s “Ali�) for playing reallife figure Chris Gardner, who struggled, along with his son (played by Smith’s son, Jaden), with a year-long bout of homelessness. The triumph of this don’t-giveup weepie is primarily thanks to Smith, whose paternal instincts lend themselves to a heartbreaking performance.

Smith, as Dr. Robert Neville, must combat mutants in 2007’s “I Am Legend.� 7 /[ :SUS\R % A highly atmospheric adaptation of Richard Matheson’s novel, this post-apocalyptic one-man show leaves Smith alone in an abandoned New York with his dog — until the nocturnal zombies show up. “I Am Legend� stands out as one of the rare bloodsucking, populist films with genuine pathos. Amid his character’s loneliness, Smith makes a chat with a mannequin aim straight for your tear ducts. +(* Comment and see the trailers for this week’s movies at southphillyreview.com/arts-and-entertainment/movies.

’m reading James Ellroy’s “Perfidia,� a fictionalized account of Los Angles at the beginning of World War II. Suddenly I’m back, caught in that vortex of time. Memories long buried bubble to the surface. I was not quite seven when the war was over. So what are these memories? Which ones did I actually experience, which are the result of the stories my father told me in the years after the war and which are those told by my seventh grade teacher, Miss Young? Dad had been drafted into the Navy toward the end of the war. He was medically discharged because of a sciatica condition, so he did not see any fighting. He also had a vivid imagination, so whether it is true that he had been assigned to a ship eventually sunk by the Japanese and that his discharge saved him, is a matter for family speculation. Miss Young was a feisty, wonderful, very patriotic woman. An ardent admirer of President Dwight D. Eisenhower and the budding United Nations, she brought World War II alive in her classroom. So what I am about to tell you is a mixture of dimly lit memory, World War II movies and the tales of my father and Miss Young of Furness Junior High School circa 1950. The war hit home one night in my grandfather’s house at Ninth and Wolf streets. Uncle Chibby was drafted into the war. The wails of my mother and her sisters still pierce my heart. He was one of the lucky ones. Survived battle with Gen. George S. Patton’s troops before irony struck. Got burned badly in a barracks fire before he got home. Lived but never to tell the tale. We kids in the family were always curious about the ugly pink scars on his body that never dimmed his smile. Other men in our family were also called. My aunt and her teenage daughter moved in with us to spend the duration of the war until my uncle returned. Movie magazines and banana sandwiches are the most vivid memories of my teenage cousin. Turned out we did lose a cousin I never met to a German U-boat. He was only 18. Uncle “Boot� was shot in the foot and captured by the Germans. Wore an artificial shoe ever after, hence the nickname “Boot.� Dad still kept the yellowing clipping of his release. Uncle Boot smiling, wearing a Hawaiian shirt and a lei around his neck. Was he on R and R in Hawaii? If so, had it really been the Germans and not the Japanese who had captured him? Fog of memory.

Rather than rushing through the first season of the year to welcome more tempting temperatures, continue to court comfort through culinary treats such as the White Winter Beans contained in this dish by Tom Spychalski. The resident of the 1600 block of South 16th Street noted this offering is “a delicious, hearty side for any meal.� Since Punxsutawney Phil’s Groundhog Day forecast revealed we will not be becoming chummy with temperate days any earlier anyway, let wind and snow have their say, and allow the Newbold inhabitant’s suggestion to make your weary bones’ acquaintance. +(*

he Philadelphia Flower Show, the oldest and largest event of its kind in the world, opens Saturday and runs through March 8 at the Pennsylvania Convention Center. This year’s theme is “Celebrate the Movies,� with a salute to Disney and Pixar films. Food often plays a pivotal role in dramas, comedies and romantic comedies, so here are my picks on where to have lunch or dinner if you are going to The Flower Show. I also feature the films that helped me make my choices. “Ratatouille� is an enchanting film about a rat who wants to be a chef in Paris. Nora Ephron’s “Julie and Julia� tells the story about how Julia Child began to cook in her tiny Paris apartment during the 1950s and of New Yorker Julie Powell, who decides to cook her way through Child’s book “Mastering the Art of French Cooking,� first published in ’61. If these films bring out the escargot lover in you, I suggest dinner at Bibou, Pierre and Charlotte Calmels’ jewel box bistro at 1009 S. Eighth St. The couple plan to close the restaurant for renovations about six weeks from now, so choose your best bottle of wine and head over to the Italian Market. Bibou is cash only. In Walt Disney’s “Lady and the Tramp,� Lady, the cocker spaniel, shares a romantic plate of spaghetti with Tramp, who is a mutt. I love the scene when each has the end of a strand of spaghetti in their mouths and they nosh until their lips meet. Who can forget Jack Lemmon straining spaghetti with a tennis racquet in “The

have ever tasted. The pasta is handmade, rolled into thin sheets and layered with Bolognese, ricotta and mozzarella. The lasagnas are built into large sheet pans, sliced into individual portions and served piping hot. Tre Scalini, 1915 East Passyunk Ave., is another Italian restaurant where customers are treated like family. I always enjoy mussels, fresh pasta or a perfectly grilled veal chop that is getting more difficult to find on restaurant menus. In “Sleepless in Seattle,� Tom Hanks and Rob Reiner share a jumbo burger and a beer lunch at Seattle’s Pike Place Market. In “You’ve Got Mail,� another Nora Ephron film, Meg Ryan scolds Hanks for taking all the caviar garnish from the rim of an egg salad mold and begins to carve a turkey sitting on a buffet table during a pre-Thanksgiving party at an author’s home. Ryan also gives a delightful performance in “When Harry Met Sally,� written by Ephron and directed by Reiner. During lunch with Billy Crystal at Katz’s Deli, she prompts a woman at another table to say “I’ll have what she’s having.� The funny part is the woman at the next table is Reiner’s mother, Estelle. Burgers, turkey sandwiches, Jewish deli and more can be found at the Reading Terminal Market, 12th and Filbert streets. The Market has extended hours during the Flower Show, so plan on breakfast, lunch or dinner. Just take a walk around, and let the aromas wafting through the market help you to build up an appetite. +(*

ailing from a land wellversed in the joys in independence, Franca DiRenzo loved the liberty involved in opening Ristorante Tre Scalini

Ristorante Tre Scalini Owner: Franca DiRenzo Opened: 1994 1915 E. Passyunk Ave. 215-551-3870 trescaliniphiladelphia.com

in 1994. Having helped to helm the West Passyunk-situated Francamaria, the proprietor has succeeded as a solo presence and is proudly presenting a stellar menu for the third annual East Passyunk Restaurant Week. “From the beginning, I wanted my own place,� the Passyunk Square inhabitant said from her establishment, 1915 E. Passyunk Ave. “I had no fear about going out on my own because I love what I do.� The native of Southern Italy’s Molise region came to the United States in ’68 and has won regard for trumpeting traditional treats, especially since she relocated Tre Scalini from 1533 S. 11th St. to its current address in 2007. “She wanted a bigger space,� daughter and site general manager Francesca DiRenzo-Kauffman said of her self-taught matriarch, noting the eatery can accommo-

date 108 patrons. “It’s worked out well for what she’s looking to accomplish here, which is being respectful to her roots.� Being so means that the chef emphasizes nutritious options, a stance that is particularly evident through Saturday, as she is offering delectable three-course dishes for $35. “It’s a great way to introduce ourselves to new traffic,� DiRenzo-Kauffman said of her mother’s Restaurant Week involvement. “We have a welcoming atmosphere, so we want to share out creations with as many people as possible.� Tre Scalini has selected two seafood plates as second-course entrees, with its Halibut Acqua Pazzo available as a supplement. Like other renditions of the protein-packed entree, which originated among Neapolitan area fishermen, the coveted catch ben-

omentum makes a mighty fine gift for delirious basketball fans, especially ones who want an upset. Just as supporters of Archbishop Wood High School sensed their Vikings could vault past Ss. Neumann-Goretti High School, 1736 S. 10th St., at The Palestra Monday night, Sianni Martin, determined to deny their wishes, converted what proved to be the game-deciding threepoint play, guiding the Saints to a 50-45 win that secured their second-straight Catholic League championship. “We’ve grown so much as a team and as a family,� the senior guard said of the nation’s top-ranked girls’ squad. “Give us a challenge, and we’re going to give you our best to push it aside. That’s what happened tonight.� The All-Catholic selection saw her East Passyunk Crossing-based unit extend its record to 24-0 ahead of Saturday’s 2 p.m. City title tilt versus Imhotep Charter at South Philadelphia High School, 2101 S. Broad St. Accustomed to crushing clubs, the Saints registered their slimmest triumph of what has become a captivating campaign. “This is a special group of young women,� first-year coach Andrea Peterson said. “I’m fortunate to have the opportunity to see them mature and realize their dreams of being the best.� Though an unblemished mark and multiple college commitments have generated joy among the roster members, their season has also featured controversy, as allegations of recruiting and using ineligible players, claims that have become part of a libel-slander lawsuit by former coach and South Philly Review Difference Maker Letty Santarelli, have sought to cause distractions. The championship game, incidentally, paired the Saints against foes whose now ex-coach, John Gallagher, earlier this winter supposedly questioned the eligibility of senior forward Christina Aborowa, a University of Texas recruit. “That didn’t matter,� Martin said of again facing the Warminster-based bunch whom she and her mates defeated in last year’s title contest and throttled 59-33 on the road Jan. 16. “We just had to do our jobs, and we did. That proves our maturity.�

<Sc[O\\ 5]`SbbW aS\W]` UcO`Ra / 8 BW[PS`a O\R AWO\\W ;O`bW\ bOZZWSR # ^]W\ba W\ bVS dWQb]`g BVS /ZZ 1ObV]ZWQ V]\]`SSa O\R bVSW` bSO[[ObSa eWZZ QVOaS O\]bVS` QVO[^W]\aVW^ Ob A]cbV >VWZORSZ^VWO 6WUV AQV]]Z AObc`ROg P h o t o s b y R o b To r n e y

A well-played opening quarter found the favorites crafting a 16-15 edge, with AllCatholic selection Ciani Cryor, a senior guard bound for Georgia Tech, depositing nine points. Having proven all season that they have multiple weapons capable of carrying out commendable executions of game plans, the Saints placed five players in the second-quarter scoring column, highlighted by super substitute Kamiah Smalls’ two corner three-pointers. Wood standout Bailey Greenberg, on her way to a game-high 24 points, kept confounding the Saints’ defensive schemes, but her colleagues would not complement her deeds, and they reached the break down 31-20. “I told these ladies that they’ve been playing basketball for most of their lives,� Peterson said. “Because of that, no matter the situation, I wanted them to see this as another game and have fun. Just like they’ve done all year, they listened and are celebrating what can happen when everyone believes in each other.� THE THIRD FRAME proved similar to the opening quarter, with Neumann-Goretti’s agility loving the opportunity to contend with Wood’s tenacity. Greenberg again showed what led to her All-Catholic des-

ignation in helping her team to ensure that onlookers would not witness a blowout. Devastating displays of talent have yielded many mismatches for the Saints, including Feb. 12’s 73-19 home playoff opener annihilation of St. Hubert’s as the most recent example. Heading for a 12-point night, the top effort from either bench, Smalls scored a bucket at the buzzer to give the Saints a 41-35 lead entering the fourth. “We practice all sorts of scenarios, so we didn’t feel we needed to panic,� Peterson said of holding the two-score edge. “Again, it was all about having fun and knowing how to execute.� The Saints struggled to distance themselves from the opposition and with 4:50 remaining, Wood dwindled the deficit to a deuce. While she later claimed that defense won the game for the unconquered locals, Martin might need to concede that her offensive guile gifted her squad the victory. Fancy dribbling and passing helped them to drain 83 seconds off the clock, with the Towson University signee venturing to the rim for a much-praised basket. Draining the accompanying free throw, she sought to be a stopper and thwart any waning-seconds plans for overtime or even a monumental regulation celebration for

Wood. The Saints missed a one-and-one, giving the Vikings a chance when down 48-45, but excellent defense on a corner three-ball cemented the result, with Smalls ending the scoring as the clock expired. “We’ve become a whole team,� senior guard A.J. Timbers, another All-Catholic, who will join Martin at Towson, said. “We weren’t scared when they came back because we knew we had to execute and stay together. Going forward, we’ll have to repeat that because we have bigger things to accomplish.� Along with looking to defend their City championship, Timbers, who tallied four points, and her peers will try to triumph in the Pennsylvania Interscholastic Athletic Association tournament (the official brackets are scheduled to be released this weekend), having fallen in last year’s final, their only blemish on their way to a 29-1 slate. “We definitely have unfinished business,� Martin said in recalling the setback. “This is my family and we’re in this together. That’s what I’ve loved most about being a Saint, realizing that we’re one.� SPR Contact Managing Editor Joseph Myers at jmyers@southphillyreview.com or ext. 124.

eventually ending up with a 43-29 edge on the glass. Green duplicated his firstquarter output, but Kimble could not muster anything, going scoreless in the half. Roman continued to power past defenders to register a 38-23 lead at the break. Anyone familiar with Neumann-Goretti and its success under Arrigale, though, knew the Saints would not fold and would forge some sort of furious comeback attempt. “That’s who we are,� Kimble said of believing the Saints would rally from the 15-point deficit. “We’re built to endure pressure.�

down 5-4, they would find themselves battling for any edge, as Roman’s roster members offered not a trace of apprehension in seeking their program’s first title since 2007. A very evenly played first session put Roman up 15-13, with the Saints receiving seven points from star sophomore guard Quade Green, another All-Catholic designee. Yet another all-league pick, sophomore center Dhamir Cosby-Roundtree, however, picked up two fouls, and Roman looked to capitalize by using the 6-foot-8 figure’s woes to attack the interior. The Center City-based ballers regularly penetrated Neumann-Goretti’s defense and even when great looks would not fall, they snared rebounds exceptionally well,

seemed rejuvenated, especially Kimble, who tallied six points in the session. Well known as an excellent deep-ball shooting squad, the Saints received three pointers from Green and junior guard Rasheed Browne, who nailed two triples. With Cosby-Roundtree more confident in his defense, too, Roman seemed rattled, and the crowd sensed a thrilling finish could combat the thought of venturing home in freezing temperatures. “I think we got them back on their heels a bit in the third,� Arrigale said of the momentum-shifting frame in which his athletes scored as many points as they had done in the entire first half to trail only 50-46. “They hit us with their physicality early on, and we wanted to get points back and go for the win.� The teams traded buckets, with Roman going up 58-52 before Kimble showed what has made him a dynamic leader, nailing a three and depositing a deuce to make it a one-point affair. The rest of the game, however, would not prove as fortunate for the perennial powerhouse. Green recorded a steal but traveled, Kimble and junior guard Zane Martin, another All-Catholic, missed front ends of one-and-one situations and junior guard Vaughn Covington stepped on the baseline after forcing a turnover. After scoring to make it a 63-59 game, Green could not convert a threepoint play, and Roman tacked on a foul shot to cap the scoring. “We have to keep a positive mindset for our next game,� Kimble, who after emerging from the locker room accepted a hug from Saint Joseph’s University coach Phil Martelli, under whom he will play next season, said. “We’ll keep working. That’s our mentality.� As families waited for their sons and brothers to emerge, the waiting area had a funeral-like feel, but that soon vanished once the players shared smiles with their kin. “I love working with these guys,� Arrigale said. “That’s who I’m in this for. It’s great to win titles, but I hope I’m making an impact on the kids so that they believe in themselves no matter what. That’s a better reward.� SPR

N 0g 8]aS^V ;gS`a ne could devote days to pondering “could have� scenarios from Monday’s Catholic League boys’ basketball championship game at The Palestra, which Roman Catholic High School, won, 64-59, over Ss. NeumannGoretti High School, 1736 S. 10th St. The local club could have claimed its seventhstraight league plaque, which would have been an unprecedented feat, and coach Carl Arrigale could have earned not only his 11th title, which would have set a record, but also his 400th victory. Instead of hanging on to hypotheticals, though, supporters would be better off focusing on the fight the Saints showed in the loss and the diligence they and their predecessors have always practiced. “It couldn’t go on forever,� Arrigale, of the 2900 block of South 15th Street, said of the East Passyunk Crossing-based institution’s parting with the title. “The kids feel let down, but it’s definitely not the end of the world, and there’s still so much to play for.� He and his charges will venture to Saint Joseph’s University for tomorrow’s 7 p.m. Class AAA City title matchup against Imhotep Charter, with the Pennsylvania Interscholastic Athletic Association tournament, which the Saints have won four of the last five years, commencing next week. With a proven pedigree, they will enter with immense pride and the belief, although they have not needed to call on it often, that a difficult loss can toughen one’s approach. “With the team we have, we can rebound,� senior guard Lamarr Kimble said. “We’re still hungry.� Having dropped their regular season encounter with the Cahillites, a 71-68 defeat absorbed Jan. 7, the All-Catholic selection and his teammates looked to repeat last year’s accomplishment of exacting a league loss with a playoff triumph. The University of Pennsylvania-situated venue buzzed with excitement, with NeumannGoretti backers especially zealous after having watched the girls’ club score a 50-45 win over Archbishop Wood for its second-straight parochial crown. The Saints started off up 4-0, but after going

NOVENAS

<51;I

NOVENA TO THE HOLY SPIRIT Holy Spirit, You who solve all problems, light all roads, so that I can attain my goal. You gave me the divine gift to forgive and forget all evil against me and that in all instances of my life You are with me. I want in this short prayer to thank You for all things as You confirm once again that I never want to be separated from You even in spite of all material illusions. I wish to be with You in eternal glory. Thank You for your mercy towards me and mine. This prayer must be said for three days and after three days the favor will be granted. The prayer must be published immediately.
