aving already won over her seventh graders at Girard Academic Music Program, 2136 Ritner St., Amanda Bankert soon will attempt to expand the minds of international children. The resident of the 1700 block of South Dorrance Street learned late last year she would need to adjust her summer plans, as Invisible Children Uganda’s Teacher Ex-

change program chose her to be one of 30 instructors who may spend six weeks in northern Uganda. A Temple University graduate, Bankert has left herself little idle time in two years at the esteemed school, teaching English and social studies to 65 pupils, offering dance tutelage to middle school students and serving as the high school’s cheerleading coach. From June 28 through Aug. 9, she hopes to lend her tireless drive to 100 students in an area that has been the target

of warfare since 1987. She became aware of Invisible Children, an 8-year-old organization, through Andrew “Koji” Shiraki, a musician whose shows bring attention to northern Uganda’s destitution. A 2003 documentary titled “Invisible Children: Rough Cut” also informed the Hanover native of the rampant plight. Connections enabled representatives See BANKERT page 12

Word on the Street

How can Philadelphians help the relief efforts in Japan? “An interesting way would be by us bringing those devastated families or individuals over here to the states until things get better over there.” Dorothy Vadino, Franklin and Shunk streets

“Volunteering here at places that will send relief packages over there is a good way to help out. Whatever is in demand by the affected I think is what we should send.” K. Munntaz, Broad and Wolf streets

“Besides money donations, sending relief packages would be a great idea.” Barbara Unruh, 15th and Jackson streets

“Fundraising through call centers sounds like something that could go well for money.” Arlyne Tyler, Broad Street and Snyder Avenue Interviews by Alvaro Balderas Photos by Ilana Bagel

Keep Up the Sweep Up! An open letter to residents: Bring out your brooms and cleaning supplies, spring cleaning is right around the corner. The fourth annual Philly Spring Cleanup is April 2. It’s our time to get Philadelphia looking its best and keep it that way. The Philly Spring Cleanup gets bigger and better each year. And this is something that we should all be proud of. The groundswell starts on tiny blocks in communities across the city. The enthusiasm spreads from neighbor to neighbor and we become a motivated, united front. Last year, we had more than 11,000 volunteers at 230 projects across Philadelphia. We collected more than 1.3 million pounds of trash from our communities. Our success has been recognized by national organizations such as Keep America Beautiful. In fact, this year, Keep America Beautiful has designated the Philly Spring Cleanup as a Great American Cleanup national kickoff event. And I know we can do even better this year. Once again, let’s join forces and set out to make this our biggest cleanup yet. There are many ways that residents and organizations can get involved. Visit www.PhillySpringCleanup.com and find information on the nearest site to you and sign up to volunteer. During the last three cleanups, I have visited and participated in projects across the city. At these cleanups, I see civic pride in action. I see motivated residents getting their hands dirty and establishing ownership of their blocks, neighborhoods, parks and community centers. It’s important that these vital efforts don’t go to waste. Our efforts must extend beyond one day. We must build off of the momentum established during the Philly Spring Cleanup and sustain the effort all year round. How can we do this? Philadelphia More Beautiful Committee schedules its clean block events on Saturdays throughout the spring and summer. Visit www.philadelphiastreets.com to find out when a cleanup is coming to your neighborhood. Our city’s new Office of Civic Engagement and Volunteer Services has launched SERVE Philadelphia, the city’s blueprint for service. Visit http://volunteer.phila.gov to find other projects taking place or how you

can get involved in other community initiatives. Residents can take a stand against litter through the UnLitter Us movement. Take the pledge and get involved by visiting www.philadelphiastreets.com and follow UnLitter Us on Facebook and Twitter. The Philly Spring Cleanup is only the beginning. Stay involved in the cleanup efforts that happen all year long. If we keep the momentum going then we will create a more beautiful home for ourselves and a better place for others to visit. So let’s Keep Up the Sweep Up, not just on the day of the Philly Spring Cleanup, but every day. I look forward to seeing all of you out there on April 2! Volunteer at www.phillyspringcleanup.com. Mayor Michael Nutter City of Philadelphia

Order in Frank’s court To the Editor: Schools are not meant to be playgrounds, schools are for learning. Schools are meant for molding a place for creation and preparation to be the best and finest in order to cope in the huge experience and adventure that await them. And when students rebel, the whole process becomes a useless waste of time, and instead these same students become the stain of disruption that hinders all those who want to learn and to succeed. Look at what many of these young punks have done to so many schools. Disruptive gang members physically assault their teachers and defy them at every opportunity. They Wait outside of the schools to assault other students without provocation and then brag about it as if they did something remarkable. They are sick children who must and should be separated from the decent ones there to learn. The teacher who made the outcry, instead of punish — should be lauded and congratulated for telling the truth of the despicable chaos, disorder and anarchy running rampant in so many schools. Instead the twisted and overuse of factual correctness rears its ugly and misused head again, most likely from the parents of these de-

mons as a ploy to twist their lack of concern for their children they abandoned of the proper teaching. Don’t allow that truthful and gutsy teacher to be a sacrificial lamb to that wasteful political correctness travesty is has become. Make a huge outcry to let your feelings be known in her fair defense. Call all of council, the Board of Education and particularly the newspapers. Let’s not abandon this precious jewel. Teachers have to put up with the worst of unappreciative treatment. They need and deserve support for how they are trying to inform the ignorant parents who are now crying out to try to shift the blame for their poor parenting and trying to falsely blame others. Their adorable children are why future prisons will be built. It is very sad to me that the lack of interest in proper caring and guidance was a terrible injustice to these children and allowed them to become what they are now. It also bothers me terribly how an obviously good and truthful statement can be allowed to be twisted and turned into something else that it was not — political correctness is a bone and poison we have to confront head on — one based on untruth and self-serving that is no longer good or productive. It hurts us all. Frank Cavallaro South Philadelphia Comment on these letters or topics at www.southphillyreview.com/opinion/letters.

We welcome you letters Hawks and the Wildcats, but my hate remained a puny seed for years. Fast forward to this year. I perfected the formula for loathing the Mildcats: Watching them! Formerly, I had just accepted that hate for the Radnor Township boys would come without full exposure to them, much like I developed dislike for Britney Spears just by hearing 10 seconds of her first single. It seems the Mildcats listened to â&#x20AC;&#x153;â&#x20AC;Ś Baby One More Timeâ&#x20AC;? toward the end of the season, as they limped into the NCAA Tournament with a five-game losing streak. Thank you, George Mason, for making it six. You hit the Mildcats one more time, indeed. I am a realist. I know an NCAA Championship will not be coming to Hawk Hill anytime soon. My consolation is knowing one will not find residence at The Pavilion either. SPR

street vendor was shot on the job and is now immobile from the chest down. A 45-year-old man was sitting near his goods consisting of cell phone cases and chargers at 5:30 p.m. March 17 on the 3000 block of Reed Street when Jack Harris, 24, is believed to have walked up and shot him in his leg, Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. “Where the money at?” Harris, of the Northeast supposedly asked. When the man claimed he didn’t have any, Harris supposedly shot him in the back, Tolliver said. Taking nothing, Harris allegedly walked up South Corlies Street and entered a black 2001 Lincoln sedan to flee the scene. The man was transported to the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania in critical but stable condition and is paralyzed as a result of the shooting, Tolliver said. Harris was arrested at 7:45 p.m. on the 1300 block of South Corlies after witnesses identified him as the shooter, Tolliver said. He was charged with attempted murder, aggravated assault, simple assault, robbery, attempted theft, firearm violations and related offenses.

Gunned down inside business A Southwest man was slain within a Passyunk Square cell phone store Monday evening. Donnell Neuswan, 21, of Southwest Philadelphia, was inside Cellular Inc., 644 Washington Ave., at 6:59 p.m. when two men entered the store and shot Neuswan multiple times in the chest, Officer Tanya Little of the Police Public Affairs Unit said. Police transported him to Thomas Jefferson University Hospital where he was pronounced dead at 9:16 p.m. It was unclear if both men had a weapon and if Neuswan was a customer or employee at the store, Little said. There were no suspects and the motive was unknown at press time. To report information, call Homicide Division at 215-686-3334.

No escaping blue A traffic violation resulted in the arrest of the car’s Point Breeze passenger after

he allegedly took the wheel and sped off. The passenger of a vehicle, whose driver committed a traffic violation, was arrested for fleeing police officers as well as firearm violations and narcotics possession after a pursuit through South of South. 17th District police were patrolling the area when officers spotted a white Pontiac Grand Prix drive through a red light near 24th and Christian streets, Detective Danielle Tolliver of South Detective Division said. As sirens blared and lights flashed from the police vehicle, the car turned on to 24th Street and continued two blocks to Washington Avenue until pulling over. Upon stopping, a 23-year-old woman, who was behind the wheel, exited the vehicle, Tolliver said. Tysheed Davis, 20, of the 2200 block of Wharton Street, who was in the passenger seat, allegedly used one hand to push the gas pedal while steering with the other even after police ordered he exit the car. First, he is believed to have reversed into a police car and then drove forward forcing an officer to leap out of the way before the car struck another police automobile. Leaving the damaged police wagons behind, Davis allegedly moved to the driver’s seat and fled the area, Tolliver said. With officers in pursuit, Davis is believed to have crashed on the 1500 block of 21st Street, exited the car and fled on foot. Police struggled with Davis for a short time before arresting and transporting him to Methodist Hospital for unspecified injuries. Police recovered a loaded Smith & Wesson revolver and multiple narcotic packets on Davis, as well as a loaded sawed-off shotgun with an obliterated serial number from the passenger’s side of the car that was towed to a police lot, Tolliver said.

SOUTh PHILLY REVIEW I march 24, 2011

Lower Moyamensing takeout eatery that was sued by a frozen-steak company for trademark infringement is headed to trial. Mike Lane, owner of Steak ’Em Up Inc., has been battling The Steak-umm Co., a Reading-based frozen steak maker, since receiving a cease and desist letter about two years ago from the company’s lawyer requesting he discontinue use of his store’s name in less than 24 hours to avoid legal action. “We, and our client, have noted you and your company’s use of the marks and names “Steak Um Up” and “Steak ’Em Up” as a restaurant name and mark for serving, among other products, steak sandwich products,” Steak-umm lawyer Kevin W. Goldstein said in the June 11, 2009 letter. Steak-umm filed a lawsuit against Steak ’Em Up two weeks after the letter was sent charging the 11th-and-Shunk-Street establishment with trademark infringement, unfair competition/false designation of origin and dilution. “Mike’s not the kind of guy that’s going to be bullied and that’s exactly what they’re trying to do,” Lane’s attorney, Robert A. McKinley of Center City’s Klehr Harrison Harvey and Branzburg LLP said. The parties had discussed a settlement, but an agreement was not reached. McKinley was not at liberty to reveal any terms of the agreement that fell through. The federal trial that is expected kick off in late-May or early-June could cost $175,000 to $300,000, according to a 2009 American Intellectual Property Law Association report. Steak-umm claimed in the complaint that “the infringing conduct by defendant Steak ’Em is knowing, willful and deliberate.” Using Internet searches as its basisSteak-umm typed “steak um up” in a Google search that returned websites with a collaboration of restaurant listings in which the restaurant’s name is spelled wrong and alleged that Steak ’Em Up is infringing upon its name. “None of those sites are sponsored by the defendant,” McKinley, a native of 12th and Shunk streets, said. “Anyone can say anything on the Internet.”

Even so, Steak ’Em Up’s color scheme and logo are an entirely different concept, he said. A gangster dressed in blue is holding a hoagie in his hands like a gun while the name “Steak ’Em Up” is a play on the words of “Stick ’em up.” Steak-umm steaks come in a red box with a picture of a steak on the front. The name has never resulted in confusion at Lane’s business, which has delivered its 100-percent rib-eye steaks and other goods within a two-mile radius of the corner store since its ’05 opening, and Steak-umm has not provided any proof of confusion, McKinley said. “There has not been any — a single incident — in four or five years where someone has asked him, ‘do you sell Steakumm?’” he said. Steak-umm has alleged that Steak ’Em Up has used “Um” in advertising; caused confusion between the products; and designed its company “to take advantage of the goodwill and products’ association that Steak-umm has built,” according to the complaint. “Here they are making all of these factual statements in the complaint, and when asked, ‘what facts do you have to support those allegations?’ they said ‘none,’” McKinley said. When reached by phone, Steak-umm’s attorney Heather Tashman Fritts of Malvern’s Stradley, Ronon, Stevens & Young would not comment on the case. While McKinley believes Steak ’Em Up will prevail in court based on the facts and the law, the possibility of the other verdict would have extreme negative impacts on Lane and his business. “It would force him to change his whole identity, which is a significant cost beyond just changing his sign. In his community, the brand-name recognition of a grocery store, convenience store/pizza shop is extremely valuable,” McKinley said noting the time Lane has devoted to building that brand that has since expanded to Collingdale. “… To have to change his name now and have to reestablish that again and reassure people it’s not a new owner is a substantial challenge and would cause great harm to him and his business.” SPR

ST. MONICA MANOR continued from page 1

project development for Catholic Health Care Services, a 98-year-old system that operates eight residential communities. One of its five skilled nursing centers, St. Monica Manor contains 180 beds and totals 55,150 square feet. Years in the making, Catholic Health Care Services’ expansion project adds another 45,350 square feet from the adjacent Our Lady of Mount Carmel Elementary School Annex, with 2,800 square feet of new construction linking it to the 32-year-old abode. “Our work involves the preservation of dignity in our residents’ lives,” Wagner said. That quest took off with Catholic Health Care Services’ 2008 acquisition of the annex whose first-floor space will contain 24 private rooms. “The re-utilization of the annex stabilizes the area,” Wagner said as a circular saw finished off adjustments. It does so by strengthening St. Monica Manor’s desire to provide treatment to those whose afflictions tread the middle ground between acute and chronic. Though comprising a quarter of the combined endeavors’ phases, the nine-month expansion makes up 50 percent of the work. “Can you believe this used to be a school space?” Fullmer asked as she left a dining area. “To put residents at ease, we demanded a homelike setting,” Wagner added. In addition to the cozy eating location, the annex will feature an expanded physical therapy room, whose services eventually will be available daily; a beauty salon; a resident lounge; and office and storage space. The new rooms and the existing building’s quarters will include wireless Internet capability, too. A stellar chapel, built in what served as a gymnasium, will sustain the use of stained closed windows from closed churches and will offer spiritual renewal to complement residents’ corporeal care. “Our improvements make for a lessexpensive alternative to hospital stays,” Wagner said. Only 13 percent of occupants pay privately or through third-party insurers. The others escape the approximate $250 daily rate through Medicaid and Medicare. Along with preserving health, Catholic Health Care Services protects the residents’ finances, a facet of care that Wagner, who enlisted St. Monica Manor to tend to his mother, tabs as an extra plus. “Our culture is family-centered, so we listened to the community’s opinions on how to enable caregivers and residents to feel pleased with all aspects of care,” he said. CATHOLIC HEALTH CARE Services acquired St. Monica Manor in September ’04, giv-

John Wagner, director of project development for Catholic Health Care Services, inspects the annex and parking lot that will make St. Monica Manor even more appealing. A 16-year employee with the Archdiocese of Philadelphia, he is busy crafting more venues for local seniors. S ta f f P h o t o b y G r e g B e z a n i s

ing the location its third name since its 1979 opening. Formerly The Walt Whitman Nursing Home and Methodist Nursing Home, it employs 197 and is the second youngest among Catholic Health Care Services’ eight facilities, with St. John Neumann Place, an independent living center housed at 2600 Moore St., having joined three years ago. Recognizing the need to bolster senior services, Catholic Health Care Services decided to improve St. Monica Manor, whose residents’ average age is 82. The refinement includes transitional care service to recent releases from acute care hospital settings. The building’s purchase came through a bequest from Monsignor Aloysius F.X. Farrell, a deceased visionary who served as pastor of St. Monica, 17th and Ritner streets, and his aunt, Mary Townsend. A three-story building, St. Monica Manor boasts a 98.5 percent annual occupancy rate and delights residents with parties, games and a weekly happy hour. With only a few elements left to the expansion, including the completion of the connection that will act as the new entrance, workers soon will focus on tackling the current habitat one floor at a time. Each section will require three months and will include rooms averaging 200 to 275 square feet. No more than two residents will occupy any room, a fact that brings to fruition one of the goals held by chief executive officer and deputy secretary Stuart Skinner.

“Since the purchase of the home, CHCS has wanted to eliminate the four-bedded rooms so that residents could have personal privacy,” Skinner, who counts the impending renovation and the creation of St. John Neumann Place’s 75 apartments as his system’s most significant achievements over the last five years, said. “Now residents that have lived in South Philadelphia their entire lives do not need to leave the area they love to receive long-term care or rehabilitation services.” The former will be the specialty of St. Monica Manor, with the Annex handling the rehabilitation services. “This will be the premier place for shortterm rehab therapy,” Fullmer said of the annex, which will join its predecessor in offering occupational, physical and speech assistance. Multiple agents are backing the $17 million undertaking, which should be set for its grand unveiling early next year. The upcoming work at St. Monica Manor will not disrupt operations and will likely meet the residents’ favor, Wagner, whose employer provides in-home elder care to 35 St. Monica parishioners and is exploring collaborating with the Mercy Health System’s LIFE program, 1930 S. Broad St., on an adult day care program, said. The expansion will not permit St. Monica Manor to increase its resident load, which Fullmer estimates is 80 percent female, but it offers an aesthetic addition to the spot, whose units comprise 12 percent of

Catholic Health Care Services’ 1,500. The facility received deficiency-free status in a December state survey, an honor Fullmer labeled an outstanding accomplishment. The staff features an on-call physician and an insistence on tireless care for the residents, who complete an application and a physician’s evaluation for admittance. The largest faith-based long-term care system in Southeastern Pennsylvania, Catholic Health Care Services expects the renovation to uphold St. Monica Manor’s reputation as a beacon for seniors and their families. “Our commitment to this region is evident,” Wagner said while offering kudos to Farrell’s inspirational legacy. “The word that keeps coming to me is ‘dignity.’ We care for our seniors in a dignified way and keep the community abreast of what we would like to achieve and welcome its opinions at every step. “We are a mission-driven facility, and a prime element of being so is looking to improve.” With plans to create a continuum of senior care over the next three years, Skinner sees St. Monica Manor as a powder keg. “There is a tremendous need for senior services in South Philadelphia,” he said. “I think the community recognizes that CHCS and the Archdiocese of Philadelphia are committed to making a difference.” SPR Contact Staff Writer Joseph Myers at jmyers@ southphillyreview. com or ext. 124.

BANKERT

continued from page 1 from the non-government agency to visit GAMP last March and October, with another stop scheduled for next month. Drawings expressing support for the downtrodden Ugandans greet any guests to her classroom. Learning too late about last year’s application process, Bankert discovered this year’s opportunity in April. “I applied in September,” she said of beating the Nov. 15 deadline. Her enthusiasm has inspired her students, who, through a December walkathon, raised $2,446 for GAMP’s partner school, The Sir Samuel Baker Secondary School in Gulu, Uganda — a city whose population approaches 142,000. With Bankert as the adviser, they formed the Invisible Children Club shortly after the October visit and have often asked if they can help to raise money for her African experience. “We’ve been able to establish a link between the students, and my learners’ desires to become more informed have led me to be the same,” Bankert, who is picking up bits of Ugandan culture as her trek approaches, said.

Yet to receive her placement, she could end up in any one of 12 schools but hopes to spend at least some time at Samuel Baker. “Regardless of my location, I’ll be able to come back with a new perspective on teaching,” she said. In addition to her classroom time, her altered attitude will come courtesy of living with and relying on the other educators, all North Americans, half of whom are making at least their second jaunt to the country nicknamed “The Pearl of Africa.” Its secondary system begins at the United States’ equivalent of seventh grade, so Bankert, with a degree in secondary English, will fraternize with students ages 12 and older. Uganda counts English and Swahili as its official tongues, so her instruction will include methods to strengthen grammar and appreciate literature. Her first week will include full immersion into the curriculum, including expectations on assignments and assessments. With an irrepressible love for her vocation, Bankert, who hopes to keep a blog on her travel, knows her time will teem with success. “This is the time for me to pursue certain ambitions,” she said of exploring life in earnest before other responsibilities mount. “Plus, it’s always been a dream to do international teaching.”

LIFE IN GENERAL, especially their educational identity, has been nightmarish for northern Ugandans. According to Invisible Children’s website, classrooms typically lack furniture, resources, space and textbooks, but bodies abound. Bankert reveals in her Teacher Exchange profile that many of her students will be former child soldiers from The Lord’s Resistance Army insurgency, a conflict that has claimed 12,000 lives, child mothers and orphans. She feels confident that with her skills and her colleagues’ input, she will enact some change. “The actual teaching makes me excited,” she said. Worry derives mainly from the prospect of having to adjust dietary habits. “I went for vaccines last week,” she said of needing Hepatitis A and B, meningitis, polio, tetanus, thyroid and yellow fever shots. “I heard unless I can peel, cook or boil foods, I should not eat them.” She cited mosquitoes’ genuine love for her as evidence for her need to acquire malaria pills, too. The snag in her impending excursion concerns costs. She has set up a Teacher Exchange fundraising page, which, as of yesterday, had netted her $2,285 of the trip’s roughly $5,000 tab. Having had to meet deadlines for her flight

and injections, she has put up more than half of her total. With May 1, the date for sending in food, housing and transportation expenses, looming, Bankert is seeking tax-deductible assistance to ensure her passion reaches forlorn children. Those interested can visit www.active.com/donate/teacherexchange2011/texABanker to make contributions. Along with bringing her new encounters, the overseas travel will add another digit to her age, as Bankert will turn 25 while away. She has learned the organizers have planned a safari for the weekend of her quarter-century celebration and bungee jumping and white water rafting outings on the Nile River, which flows north through Uganda, at the conclusion. Upon her return, the Point Breeze inhabitant will hold cheer camp at GAMP and prepare for the new year. She will likely seek to return to Uganda next year if this summer is as fruitful as she foresees it being. “This is the biggest opportunity of my career,” she said. “I am happy to have it so early into my time as an educator and hope to take a ton from my travels.” SPR Contact Staff Writer Joseph Myers at jmyers@ southphillyreview.com or ext 124.

Hope Moffett

n the first full day of spring, a season affiliated with newness, a familiar face returned to Charles Y. Audenried Sr. High School, 3301 Tasker St. Hope Moffett, a third-year English teacher, resumed her duties at the school following a 32-day School District of Philadelphia-mandated absence. “Everything felt normal,” the resident of the 1000 block of Christian Street said of again instructing her juniors, who are in their second week of taking the Pennsylvania System of School Assessment, which evaluates, among other elements, writing skills. The reinstatement came after weeks of waiting on pins and needles as her employer debated on whether to terminate her. Because she did not disclose to parents that she had distributed tokens to students

to attend a Feb. 15 rally against the decision to convert their school into a charter, the district made her report to Strawberry Mansion High School, where she had no duties. The educational entity settled a First Amendment lawsuit Friday with the Philadelphia Federation of Teachers filed March 10. The agreement returned Moffett to her learners and voided a hearing on the lawsuit that had been set for this week. As part of its terms, the 25-year-old, who, pending an expedited arbitration hearing, faces a five-day suspension, agreed to read to the pupils a statement on her actions. “I read it and my lessons began,” she said of adhering to the stipulation. Eager to part with her acquired notoriety, she feels the saga should never have been about her, saying it centered on district transparency in revealing its plans to the public. Reunited with her charges, she takes pride in their efforts. “This situation has given me the chance to see the best of my students,” she said of her partners in opposing the conversion. “They’ve helped me to believe more in the power of education.” SPR Contact Staff Writer Joseph Myers at jmyers@ southphillyreview.com or ext. 124.

A local college student tries her hand as a first-time contestant in the Miss Philadelphia Scholarship Pageant, taking place Saturday. By Jess Fuerst Review Contributor

etween attending college and working three jobs, 20-year-old Nicole Cirillo is going to compete in a beauty pageant. “I don’t know [how I juggle everything]. I have my priorities in order, I guess,” Cirillo, of 12th and Shunk streets, said. “I put school first and work, and make time for my friends and family, but, definitely, I prioritize. I make time in my schedule.” The resourceful junior studying education at Neumann University in Aston, has worked to put herself through higher education. While scouring possible sources for scholarships, she came across the Miss Philadelphia Scholarship Pageant. “I’m into fashion. If I wouldn’t be going to school for teaching, then I would love to get involved with fashion, even though the pageant focuses on being a role model, the scholarship program is not just about being pretty,” Cirillo, who is also focusing on special education studies, said. “I went to modeling school. Aci Nae, the boutique on Passyunk, I was in two of their fashion shows.” Besides the fashions, the 18 pageant contestants will have to answer questions,

S ta f f p h o t o b y Greg Bezanis

Lifestyles perform a talent and advocate for their platform. While many of the girls have had months to prepare for Saturday’s competition, Cirillo was notified in January. “I originally didn’t make it because they felt I really needed to be more involved. This was before I got in touch with any of the organizations. And then I was in work one day and they said one girl dropped out and I was the first person on the list they called. They felt potential with me and they knew I really wanted it,” she said. As a beauty pageant novice, Cirillo had to develop her platform and support organization network. It didn’t take long for her to verbalize the cause she wished to support. “I knew I wanted it to be about the kids and the city and schools because I’m going to be a teacher and I just think definitely, especially in Philadelphia, it needs help. School is a big topic,” the 12th-andTasker-streets native said. “I definitely automatically knew I want to focus my platform issue about my future career.” The budding educator reached out to area organizations Greater Philadelphia Cares and Communities in Schools of Philadelphia, the latter at which she worked closely with director Sandra Foster to develop a program this coming summer where she will read and speak to young women

about how she manages her busy schedule and the importance of an education. “[The organization] helps kids to stay in school, whether it’s from lack of funds or from a family pregnancy, they don’t want to drop out. Their mission is to keep students in school,” she said. “It has been proven, there are facts, from being involved with [Communities in Schools in Philadelphia], it’s kept many students in school.” The Girard Academic Music Program, 2136 Ritner St., grad will be singing a Beyoncé version of “Ave Maria.” Having performed in her school days many times, Cirillo is still nervous to dust off the pipes. However, she has more than a few people who will be rooting for the first-time participant. “I have a lot of support: My mom and my dad, my grandmom and my aunt. I’m so close to my family and my friends,” Cirillo, who moved away freshman year but returned and now commutes from South Philly to college, said. “They are all coming to support me. I’m glad they’re going to be there.” AFTER GRADUATING HIGH school, Cirillo left the area to begin her studies at Neumann, where she never doubted the field of concentration.

“Ever since I was little, I wanted to study education. I used to play school when I was little. I’m finally in college and student-teaching now and love it. I’m finally reaching my goal,” Cirillo said. “I love kids, I really do. I like that I get to inspire and motivate other lives … You can be creative. I love inspiring others.” As part of her program, Cirillo gets to teach younger students under the supervision of a mentor. In her final year, a semester will be spent working full-time as a teacher. “I lived at my college my freshman year, but I needed to work,” Cirillo, who now lives at home, said. “I commute, I have a car and I pay for myself. I’m a junior studying elementary education and being certified for special education.” Special education is an area Cirillo feels will play a vital role in her post-graduation plans and something she feels will greatly benefit the city’s current system. “I think Philadelphia needs good teachers. I’m not assuming all these teachers are bad, I would never say that, but the laws have changed and the current teachers certified now don’t know how to incorporate multiple intelligences into their lessons. They all teach one way,” Cirillo said. “All kids are different and they need to be approached in different ways. There

is more than one way to teach a child.” Cirillo currently holds three other jobs while she finishes her schooling, including hosting at Buckhead Saloon, waitressing at Johnnie’s, 12th and Wolf streets, and sales associate at Fashionably Ever After, 2403 S. Broad St., the 2011 Reader’s Choice Winner for “best kids clothing.” (“Readers Choice,” March 17.) “I’ve been working since I was 14,” Cirillo said. But her true passion is her school work and future vocation, which plays into her Miss Philadelphia platform of importance of arts in the classroom. “As a teacher in Philadelphia, especially, I feel it is very important for schools to integrate the arts, music, theater, dance, arts and crafts,” Cirillo said. “A lot of schools lack that. Basically, that was my subject for the interview.” Partnering with her two support organizations, which do some work with promoting arts in schools, Cirillo is ready to take on the competition Saturday. “I’ll definitely see how I do since it’s my first pageant,” she said. “It’s not going to make me stop if I don’t get the title.” SPR Comment at news/lifestyles.

Cardella

By Tom Cardella Columnist

Doomsday (The horrific disaster in Japan has renewed the kind of fears about all things nuclear with which my own generation grew up. This is a recounting of those days).

e grew up in a time when nuclear war with the Soviet Union was considered inevitable. It was just a matter of time. My father told me that stunning fact so often I took it for granted. He believed it so strongly he made preparations for doomsday. Dad turned our basement into a bomb shelter. Every so often, he would take me down to the basement and show me what he had accomplished. The concrete was so many inches thick — so thick he believed he had actually taken the ultimate step toward protecting his family against the monster bomb. Cans of food and bottled water lined the shelves and Dad assured they were rotated so they never reached the expiration date. He explained in detail what all of us should do when the dreaded warning came. It is tough for me to remember my thoughts as he went through the laborious details of the Cardella plan to survive a nuclear war. Dad wasn’t crazy. I wanted to believe this man who protected his family from physical harm his entire life had figured out a way to protect us forever against all harm, even a nuclear bomb. The neat, tidy basement would be where we would stage our last stand. The walls were filled on one side with pictures of all of the modern popes and on the other side with images of our presidents, in line of succession. The picture of JFK had a black border around it. Dad described in frightening detail about how it might be after the bomb dropped, at least in his mind. We would be safe in our bunker, but other survivors who had not prepared for Armageddon would be seeking food and shelter. We can’t take them in, he would shake his head sadly, or there wouldn’t be enough food and water for us. We might have to keep them out by force. A retired police officer, Dad had a permit for a weapon and he was prepared to use it to protect the shelter from being invaded. This was serious business and we treated it as such. Our biggest problem in surviving, we thought, was our proximity to The Navy Yard. Dad figured the area might be a prime target for the enemy and if they dropped the bomb on that target, the bomb shelter and all of his preparations would be meaningless. We would be vaporized. The only consolation, Dad thought, was

death would be instantaneous. In order to understand our mindset, you have to understand we were less than 20 years removed from when the United States dropped the atomic bomb on Hiroshima and Nagasaki. The devastation of a nuclear bomb was real. Dad had always questioned why Truman dropped that second bomb on Japan. He understood the first one. But why not wait until the horror of Hiroshima sank in and forced the Japanese to realize continuing the war was useless? Why go ahead a few days later and drop the bomb on Nagasaki? And Truman later said he never lost any sleep over the decision. How could that be? We had seen films of the complete devastation wrought by this weapon. It was not difficult to project there would come a tipping point where we would engage the Soviets in a nuclear exchange, even if only by accident. Hollywood was producing films such as “On the Beach,” “Fail Safe,” and “Dr. Strangelove.” We were shown government-produced propaganda films in school that made it seem like all you had to do to survive a nuclear blast was to close the blinds, go down the basement, munch on crackers and canned food for two weeks and emerge unscathed into a world that was still intact. These same films directed us school kids to hide under our desks should we be in class when the bomb hit. Surviving the bomb was as simple as following your teacher’s directions, not much more complicated than a routine fire drill. The newsreels always followed up the death and destruction in those two Japanese cities with the fond promise of a future where the atom would be used for peaceful purposes. The future seemed bright, powered by the atom. Our source of energy would be clean, cheap and limitless. The Cold War intruded on that reality. The ’50s became a time of fear. We deluded ourselves into thinking that if the Rosenbergs hadn’t passed our nuclear secrets to the Soviets, they would have never developed the weapon. Dad never lived to see the end of the Cold War. He died with the bomb shelter still intact. The canned food and bottled water were still on the shelves and the pictures of the popes and the presidents kept up-to-date. I often wonder how he would have handled the end of the threat from the Soviet Union. But if his tinge of paranoia had a purpose, he would have peered into the future and seen not only the promise of the nuclear reactors being built, but the threat as well. Sometimes, as I watch the chaotic scenes from Japan play out on television, I see Dad with that pensive look on his face, the fear starting all over again, the concern that somehow we had still managed to figure out a way to destroy ourselves, that doomsday was still inching closer.

Jane Eyre (Mia Wasikowska) steps out on the moorland in the creepy yet romantic “Jane Eyre.”

By R. Kurt Osenlund Movie Reviewer

here’s a certain sense of incompletion to the latest incarnation of “Jane Eyre” – a palpable breezing-through of pivotal plot developments and time jumps that keeps the film from achieving a sweeping, satisfying totality. But director Cary Fukunaga (“Sin Nombre”) has greater and more interesting ambitions than to simply deliver one more sweeping costume drama. Building greatly upon the script by Moira Buffini, he offers something darker, something more individualistic, something remarkably undusty for being the 28th filmed adaptation of a 164-year-old novel. Charlotte Brontë’s unassumingly feminist heroine, played here by fair-featured Mia Wasikowska, is as mysterious as ever, a woman of strong passions and ideals, but one who hides behind a wall of austerity forged by a history of abuse. In the performance that will ensure her future in film, Wasikowska tackles Jane’s stoicism with superb restraint, and she’s shatteringly present in emotional scenes where Jane’s principles and human sympathies finally come to blows. “You transfix me quite,” Jane is told by her coldly dashing employer, Mr. Rochester, who’s introduced in flashback after Jane is seen surviving her wretched aunt (Sally Hawkins) and a nightmarish reform school. In the classic role, the great Michael Fassbender uses stunning intensity to fill the gaps of the screen couple’s underdeveloped attraction, and he makes gold of the dialogue, reminding how old-world language can cause romance to ache and tremble in ways modern fare can’t touch. And yet, there’s modernity in Fukuna-

ga’s approach – his “Jane Eyre” feels as much an auteur film as one could hope would result from this director-for-hire project (Buffini’s script sat unproduced for years; Fukunaga got the job in 2009). Playing up the story’s Gothic origins, he opts for a marvelous, shadowy aesthetic, comprised of foggy gray exteriors and haunting candle lighting. He downplays elaborate sets and costumes with authentic English gloom. He skirts tidy resolutions for challenging and uncompromising passages. Without explicitly bucking tradition, he makes the old new again.

Jane Eyre PG-13 Three-and-a-half out of four Opens tomorrow at the Ritz Five

Recommended Rental Black Swan R AvailableTuesday In the best female performance of 2010, Oscar winner Natalie Portman wows with the degrees of terror, triumph and tender weakness she’s able to convey as a ballerina undone by her pursuit of perfection. Director Darren Aronofsky deftly blends high and low art in this backstage psychodrama, which is even more unnervingly delightful the second time around.

eing the Lenten season, many individuals find themselves scratching their heads around lunchtime on Fridays trying to figure out what they can or cannot eat. The other factor is selecting a dish that doesn’t require a lot of prep time. Carol A. Pasquarello often goes with one of her favorites: Orecchiette and Broccoli. The resident of the 2400 block of South Clarion Street said her recipe is quick and easy, which should please those on a hectic schedule. Besides it being delicious, no sacrifices are required to enjoy it. SPR

Carol’s Orecchiette and Broccoli: INGREDIENTS:

1 pound of orecchiette pasta (or pasta of choice), cooked according to package directions 1 16- to 20-ounce package of frozen chopped broccoli Olive oil, a generous amount to coat the bottom of a pan Fresh garlic or garlic powder (if desired), to taste Black pepper, red pepper ﬂakes and Parmesan cheese, to taste Old Bay seasoning, to taste (if desired)

DIRECTIONS:

Season with the ggarlic,, black pepper, per, red pepperr ﬂakes and Old Bay g. seasoning. w heat Cook on low until the broccoli is tender.

The Toque Stops Here Restaurant Review:

= Exceptional

Marathon By Phyllis Stein-Novack R e s ta u r a n t R e v i e w e r

hen a long-standing restaurant undergoes a menu overhaul, it is a fine idea to pay a visit. I have dined at four of Marathon’s six locally-owned chain locations. My meals ran the gamut from weekend brunch, lunch and dinner. Sometimes I ate alone; sometimes my sister Sandy accompanied me. I was itching to see if a consistency of food quality and service was in place at each restaurant. It was. It is a rare find when you know exactly what to expect in terms of food and service. Because I ate at Marathon dozens of times, the price list would be long. My average check came to about $17, including tax and tip. Prices run from $4 for soup, to $20 for a 3-course dinner. Brunch brings a bagel and nova platter, which one would find in a good Jewish deli. The smoked salmon is sliced paper thin and comes with sliced red onion, tomatoes, capers and a ramekin of Philadelphia cream cheese. Scrambled eggs and omelets are just right because the chefs respect the egg. They are never brown and rubbery. Applewood smoked bacon is a nice plus along with Metropolitan’s wheat toast. When I am in the mood for a light lunch, I go for Marathon’s salads. Chopped chicken cobb is a big plate filled with crisp greens, creamy bits of avocado, bits of Applewood smoked bacon, and quarters of hard boiled egg topped with a homemade blue cheese dressing. The Caesar is 100 percent homemade. Cool romaine letCoffee/Café/Sweets

tuce forms the base for squiggles of Parmigianno-Reggiano, buttery house-made croutons and a Caesar dressing as fine as the original made in Mexico. Now to the burger. I am finicky about my burgers. I like them charred on the outside and medium-rare on the inside. All locations presented me with my burger of choice. The chefs at Marathon use a blend of ground chuck, sirloin and short ribs before the beef is carefully palmed into patties. You get a choice of either french fries or small Caesar salad. The fries here are tops. They were hot, crisp, free of grease and topped with just the right sprinkling of salt. At the Rittenhouse Square location, my server told me if the chef has the ingredients, he can make me a grilled cheese sandwich however I want. He took Vermont cheddar, Applewood smoked bacon, placed it between two slices of whole grain bread and seared it to buttery perfection. The turkey used in the roasted turkey club is 100 percent roasted turkey breast, sliced thin and not one bit dry. The moist turkey breast was piled high along with imported Swiss, bacon, lettuce and tomato. Instead of the usual mayonnaise, the chefs smeared the toasted sourdough with a basil aioli which was inspirational. The aioli was creamy and fragrant with fresh basil. The open-faced tuna melt was made with tuna salad which contained very little

mayo, thank goodness. It was just enough to hold the fish together. Each slice was topped with cheddar and a tomato pickle relish which provided a fine contrast of flavors and textures. I sampled the three-course $20 dinner beginning with matzo ball soup, which, I have to admit, was as fine and tasty as the matzo balls I prepare. A good-size fluffy melt-in-your mouth matzo ball floated in piping hot dill-flecked chicken soup with tiny dices of fresh onion, carrot and celery. From the entrées, I selected the centercut pork chop which was slightly pink inside, tender and juicy. The vegetables change with the season. A wedge of creamy cheesecake ended my meal. I am finicky about iced tea and coffee. Marathon makes a freshly brewed iced tea which rivals only Tria’s. The chain

changed its coffee to Chestnut Hill Coffee Co., which is neither too strong nor too weak. For me, it is the perfect strength. The change in Marathon is evident. The food is more refined, without being stuffy. Flavors are clear and clean and much attention has been given to eye appeal in every dish. Three tips of the toque to Marathon. SPR

Ladies of influence Besides the change in seasons, March honors the success of women. Here are ideas for a three-course meal from the pages of female-penned cookbooks.

By Phyllis Stein-Novack Food Columnist

■ Julia’s Basic ■ Leek and Potato Soup

from “Julia and Jacques Cooking at Home” by Julia Child and Jacques Pepia Ingredients:

Directions: Melt the butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir in the leeks and onions to coat with

■ Chicken Scarpariello ■ (Pollo Scarpariello)

From “Lidia’s Italian-American Kitchen” by Lidia Bastianich Ingredients: 2 small fryer chickens, each cut into 8 pieces, patted dry with paper towels. Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste 1/4 cup of olive oil, or as needed 1/2 pound of sweet Italian sausage, cut into 1-inch pieces 10 garlic cloves, peeled and ﬁnely chopped

4 pickled cherry peppers, cut in half and stemmed 1/4 cup of red wine vinegar 1/2 cup of dry white wine 1 cup of chicken stock 1/4 cup of fresh Italian parsley

Directions: Preheat the oven to 475 degrees. Season the chicken with the salt and pepper. Heat 2 tablespoons of the oil in a large skillet. Add to the skillet as many pieces of chicken, skin side down, starting with the leg, thigh and wing pieces. Cook the chicken, turning as necessary, until golden brown, for about eight minutes. Remove the chicken and drain on paper towels. Place the chicken in a roasting pan large enough to hold them in a single layer. Repeat until all of the chicken pieces have been browned, adding a bit more oil if necessary. As room becomes available in the skillet, brown the sausage on all sides. Remove the sausage from the skillet and add to the roasting pan. Place the garlic in the skillet and cook until golden over medium-low heat. Scatter the cherry peppers in the skillet, season with salt and pepper and stir. Pour in the vinegar, bring to a boil, scraping up the brown bits from the skillet. Reduce the vinegar by a half. Add the wine and boil for about

1/3 cup of sugar 6 tablespoons of prepared espresso or strong coffee 6 ounces of semi-sweet chocolate 4 tablespoons of light cream 3 egg whites 1-1/2 cups of heavy cream, chilled

Directions: In a heavy saucepan, dissolve the sugar with the coffee over medium heat. In the top of a double boiler, set over simmering water, slowly melt the chocolate. Whisk in the light cream and the coffee mixture, stirring until smooth. Cool. Beat the egg whites to soft peaks. Gently fold in one-half cup of the chocolate mixture. Pour this mixture back into the chocolate mixture, folding gently. Beat the chilled cream to soft peaks and fold in gently until totally mixed. Pour into eight dessert glasses or a large serving bowl. Chill for four hours. Serves eight. SPR Comment at www.southphillyreview.com/foodand-drink/features.

3 tablespoons of butter, melted 3 cups of white and pale green leeks, sliced 2 medium onions, sliced 2 tablespoons of ﬂour 6 cups of water 1-1/2 pounds russet potatoes, diced Kosher salt and freshly ground white pepper, to taste

the butter. Cover the pan, reduce heat and cook, stirring occasionally, for about 10 minutes. Uncover, sprinkle on the flour, stir and cook for five minutes. Remove from heat and allow to cool. While stirring, gradually pour in 1-1/2 cups of the water. Bring to a simmer. When the liquid is smooth and starts to thicken, stir in the remainder of the water. Add the potatoes, salt and pepper. Bring the soup to a gentle boil, cover the pan, lower the heat and cook for 20 minutes. Puree the soup and adjust seasoning. Makes two quarts.

Note from Phyllis: Serve broccoli rabe, green beans or baby peas with this dish.

SOUTh PHILLY REVIEW I march 24, 2011

pring officially arrived a few days ago. I began to think about dishes for an early seasonal meal. Since March is International Women’s Month, I leafed through my cookbooks written by women and decided to plan a dinner using their recipes. Bing Crosby crooned a tune called “AcCen-Tchu-Ate the Positive” written by Johnny Mercer and Harold Arlen. He asks us to “accentuate the positive, eliminate the negative” and “Don’t mess with Mr. In-Between.” March is a month to do just that. Let’s think positive about this in-between month. To me, spring truly arrives in late April or early May. Here are recipes for an early spring meal written by Julia Child, Lidia Bastianich, Julee Russo and Sheila Lukins who influenced and changed the way Americans cook.

three minutes. Pour in the stock and bring to a boil. Pour the sauce over the chicken in the roasting pan and stir to coat. Roast the chicken in the oven for about 10 minutes. The sauce should be sticky like molasses. Top with parsley and serve. Serves six.

A scrum-ptious stay Prior to a weekend clash, two national rugby teams spent three days preparing at two local sites. By Joseph Myers r e v i e w s ta f f w r i t e r

mple sunshine had Irish eyes smiling and legs limbering Friday morning at the South Philadelphia super site, 10th and Bigler streets. The Ireland Wolfhounds, the Rugby League International Federation’s seventh-ranked team, capped preparations for the seventh Donnybrook Cup, a battle against the 15th-ranked USA Tomahawks, with a two-hour practice. The session and its March 16 and 17 predecessors at FDR Park, 20th Street and Pattison Avenue, proved fruitful, as the Emerald Isle inhabitants the next day scored a 26-8 victory at Northeast Philadelphia’s Charles Martin Memorial Stadium. As guests of the Tomahawks’ coach David Niu, the president and founder of the 13-year-old American National Rugby League, the 17 players and the coaching staff arrived March 15. Niu and the Wolfhounds inked the match six months ago, choosing Philadelphia to recognize the native Australian’s adopted city and to honor its thriving Irish population. “Travel is deliberate,” Niel Wood, the United Kingdom-based Rugby Football League’s European development director, said of Ireland’s latest venture across the Atlantic Ocean. Originating in 1895, the Rugby Football League owes its existence to a split with the more popular Rugby Football Union. The Wolfhounds seek international distinction to cause Irish audiences to consider watching more than union matches and soccer contests. The team began training three months ago, with plans to use the encounter to begin its march to the 2013 Rugby League World Cup in Wales and England. Automatic qualifiers, the Wolfhounds advanced to the quarterfinals in the two recent championships in 2000 and ’08. The Tomahawks escorted the visitors from their lodgings in Cherry Hill, N.J., for their drills. Many of the burly chaps had made trips to the United States for vacations and stays with family members prior to being a part of the first Donny-

Six of the 17 members of the Ireland Wolfhounds tried to secure the ball at Thursday’s park session. Practice made perfect for the visitors, who returned to their native land Sunday. S ta f f P h o t o b y G r e g B e z a n i s

brook battle since ’04, Wood said. “Rugby is like American football on speed,” he said of the sport’s constant use of a hurry-up offense. The coach of the Wolfhounds’ 1995 club that scored a win against the Americans in Washington, D.C., Wood delighted in analyzing the defensive and offensive setups. Slightly akin to football, rugby consists of 13-man teams, with four permissible substitutes, looking to score through tries, goals and field goals. They attempt tries by running and kicking a roughly 11-inchlong ball upfield or by making backwards or sideways passes. Afforded six downs to traverse the nearly 109-yard field, a unit converts a try when it touches the ball to the ground on or beyond the opposition’s goal-line. Worth four points, they are similar to touchdowns and are the most com-

mon scores. A conversion or a penalty can lead to an attempt at a two-point goal, while a one-point field or drop goal results from a successful drop kick through the uprights. Each game is an 80-minute affair played in halves and can produce a highscoring verdict. “Each match depends on a team’s attacking style,” Wood said as the offensive players pushed their counterparts back. “Establishing field position is key.” The offensive unit proved that as it gained even more ground. Both sides barked instructions as the late morning temperatures crept higher. “It’s common for defenders to mark their opponents. They’ll say ‘I’ve got fatty’ or ‘I’ve got baldy,’” Wood said chuckling. Though serious, the athletes shared bancontinued on next page

NCAA updates rep Charter grads Marcus and Markieff P Morris and their Kansas Jawyhawks have advanced to the Sweet 16 following

Friday’s 72-53 win over Boston University and Sunday’s 73-59 second-round victory over Illinois. In the latter outing. Markieff led all scorers with 24 points to go along with 12 rebounds and a block. Marcus contibuted a solid line of his own with a double-double of 17 points and 12 rebounds. After the game, the siblings talked about advancing in the NCAA Tournament. “It feels good. It feels like we’ve got a lot of pressure off our shoulders,” Markieff said during Sunday’s press conference. “It Feels good to go to San Antonio and it feels good to get better this next week that’s coming up.” Kansas is facing the University of Richmond tomorrow night. Tip is 7:27 p.m. and the contest will be carried on TBS. The news wasn’t so good for three other local standouts who saw their respective teams fall in second-round action. South Philadelphia High product Ramone Moore and the Temple Owls were eliminated by San Diego State, 71-64, in double overtime. The junior guard finished with 17 points, four rebounds and two assists. Neumann-Goretti grads Rick Jackson and Scoop Jardine also are reeling from the agony of defeat following Sunday’s 66-62 loss to Marquette. Jackson, in his final game as a collegiate athlete, tallied seven points and four rebounds while his junior teammate added six points and six assists.

SOUTh PHILLY REVIEW I march 24, 2011

TO THE CHAGRIN of Niu, the travelers totaled enough tries to end his bunch’s fourmatch series winning streak. His Tomahawks also practiced at FDR and the super site, using the latter four hours after the Wolfhounds. Like the opponent’s roster, the national team’s personnel consists of amateurs with non-sporting occupations. A former Tomahawk, Niu has considerable international experience, testing his might in Australia, France and the United Kingdom. In ’99, he helped the United States Eagles rugby union team to qualify for the Rugby World Cup and became the American National Rugby League’s first president two years later. The Eagles will make their sixth appearance in the Rugby World Cup this summer in New Zealand, and Niu is eager to have the Tomahawks earn their initial Rugby League World Cup slot. “The players are excited to have the opportunity to play against a national team ranked above us,” Niu said Friday after the teams held a press conference at Paddy Whacks, 150 South St. He renamed the contest the Donnybrook Cup in honor of the Irish district that hosted a fair with a well-known history of brawls. The first two matches occurred on St. Patrick’s Day in ’95 and ’96, making the

“With those, rugby could emulate soccer and lacrosse,” he said of two sports that have altered America’s former sports monotony. A solid crowd watched the Tomahawks’ latest endeavor to promote the game. Unfortunately for the hosts but fortunately for Irish admirers, the Wolfhounds led throughout, emerging with a five-to-one edge in tries and a three-to-one advantage in goals. Three turnovers doomed the Americans, but the effort pleased Niu. “I’m disappointed in the result, but I’m not disappointed in the process,” he said. Each team’s deep cultural history makes Niu deem the Irish a major rival. Meeting the Irish next year remains a possibility, as does an across-the-ocean tilt with the Irish lads. Only the winner of the Atlantic qualifying group consisting of the United States, 23rd-ranked South Africa and 24th-ranked Jamaica will advance to the full tournament. This summer will feature a homeand-home series against 39th-ranked Canada. Niu and Wood have discussed having Philadelphia as the site for the October qualification stage. The second half of the year will also bring the first games for the United States of America Rugby League, a 16-team formation that will take rugby out West. “Americans are becoming more receptive,” Niu said. “With more awareness and access, rugby could be a force in the States.” SPR
