from May 28 to Sept. 5. From that point through Oct. 1, the rentals would be on weekends only, but during the same business hours. In an interview during last year’s trial period, village recreation director Renee Lemmerman had called it another way of “providing services for our residents to really use their harborfront” and a good way for families to exercise at the beach. The system will benefit the village as well as Sunpaddle — according to the board, the village will receive 40 percent of the revenue from the rentals.

The Port Jefferson and Comsewogue school districts are holding their budget votes and board of education elections on Tuesday, May 17. Both districts have adopted 2016-17 budgets that stay within their respective state-mandated caps on tax levy increases while maintaining all academic programs. Comsewogue’s spending plan totals $87.2 million and would increase taxes about $3 for every $100 of a home’s assessed value, while Port Jefferson’s clocks in at $41.4 million

and would raise taxes $0.81 for every assessed $100. Their budget numbers are starkly different but the neighboring school districts have something in common: both have two incumbents running unopposed for re-election. In Comsewogue, Rob DeStefano and Francisca Alabau-Blatter are seeking their third terms on the school board. Port Jefferson has board President Kathleen Brennan and trustee Ellen Boehm each hoping for their own third terms as well. The three female candidates have teaching backgrounds while DeStefano works in marketing for a software company. In Port Jefferson, the vote will take place at the Earl L. Vandermeulen High School cafeteria, off Old Post Road, between 6 a.m. and 9 p.m. Comsewogue’s vote will happen in the Comsewogue High School gymnasium, on Bicycle Path in Port Jefferson Station, from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. — Elana Glowatz

Republican legislators call for Bellone, Spota to resign Corruption is a word used often relating to Suffolk County government recently, and at least three legislators have had enough. Suffolk County Legislator Rob Trotta (R-Fort Salonga) spoke at a press conference at the Suffolk County Legislature, Evans K. Griffing Building in Riverhead on Tuesday in which he called for the resignation of County Executive Steve Bellone (D) and District Attorney Tom Spota. Trotta also called for Babylon Town Supervisor Rich Schaffer (D), who is also the Suffolk County Democratic Committee chairman to step down from one of the two jobs. “At this point we are calling for the district attorney to step down and to let normalcy come back,” Trotta said, adding stories that continue to come out relating to former Suffolk County Police Chief James Burke, who pleaded guilty to a civil rights violation and conspiracy to obstruct justice in February, are “disgusting.” Spota, Bellone and Schaffer were all critical in Burke’s career rise and promotion despite evidence reported by Newsday the men were warned of Burke’s troubled legal past. Trotta’s calls for Spota’s resignation also stem from his backing of Chris McPartland, a corruption prosecutor in Spota’s office, who Newsday reported in January is under investigation by a federal grand jury for political corruption. “People need to be held responsible for their actions and right now, in this county,

legislator rob trotta, left, calls on suffolk County executive steve Bellone to resign. they’re not being held responsible,” Trotta said. “I don’t mean in federal courts or being arrested, I mean morally and socially.” Legislator Tom Cilmi (R-Bay Shore) and Kevin McCaffrey (R-Lindenhurst) joined Trotta at the press conference. Cilmi stopped short of calling for resignations when pressed, though he made a statement condemning Bellone and Spota’s alleged actions relating to Burke. “People always have a sense that their political system is corrupt,” Cilmi said. “But day after day, week after week, year after year they’re seeing those fears play out right before their eyes in Suffolk County and it’s disgraceful. Whatever integrity Suffolk

County has left is evaporating in a murky haze of finger pointing and deceit.” Cilmi also echoed Trotta’s sentiments about Schaffer and suggested Schaffer’s two positions created a conflict of interest. “The people of Suffolk County didn’t elect Schaffer,” Cilmi said. “The people of Babylon elected him town supervisor. Is he able to keep his government role separate from his political role?” Schaffer could not be reached for comment but Bellone responded to Trotta’s comments in an email through his spokesperson, Vanessa Baird-Streeter. “Rob Trotta and Tom Cilmi are partisan politicians who just don’t get it,” she wrote.

“This is not a partisan issue, this is about sweeping out a culture of abuse and corruption in the district attorney’s office. I regret that I trusted the word of the district attorney regarding Jim Burke, and I have learned from that error in judgment, which is why I nominated former federal prosecutor Tim Sini as police commissioner after vetting him for more than a year.” Bob Clifford, a spokesperson for Spota, responded in a similar fashion. “This predictably partisan press conference calling for the resignation of the duly elected district attorney is nothing but a political challenge to the effective leadership of Thomas Spota, who has spent the last 14 years putting criminals in jail,” he said. McCaffrey and Trotta refuted any claims that the legislators’ motivation was driven by anything other than morality. “I can tell you there’s Democrats in there that want to be standing here with us,” McCaffrey said, gesturing toward a legislative meeting going on at the same time. “They are ashamed of what’s going on in Suffolk County right now.” Trotta said he invited Democratic legislators, though none attended. “This is not about Republicans — this is not about Democrats,” Trotta said. “This is about corruption. Our job as representatives is to look into this. My constituents don’t have the ability to look into it like I can. Having been a former detective for 25 years I came to this job and I am sickened by what I see. Sickened.”

The day the music died Theatre Three’s longtime musical director passes By Elana GlowaTz Ellen Michelmore, who served as the Theatre Three musical director for more than 25 years, died early last Friday morning, May 6, the theater said on its Facebook page. She was 63. Since her start with a production of “Evita” in 1986, Michelmore worked with hundreds of actors and musicians at the theater in her hometown of Port Jefferson. Even through a few battles with leiomyosarcoma, a cancer that infects muscle tissue, Michelmore was known for her energy and for giving her all, and was named a Port Times Record Person of the Year in 2014. “She is a craftsperson, an artist, a teacher and a mentor,” Theatre Three Executive Director Jeffrey Sanzel said at that time. He quoted composer Jerry Herman to describe her style: “‘Someone puts themselves last, so that you can come first.’ That is Ellen.” People who knew her have called her generous, patient, kind, strong and remarkable. And she made a mean Bolognese sauce. “I don’t think there was a single person who ever came across her who didn’t love her,” Sanzel said in a phone interview last Friday. “And I’m not one to use superlatives [but] she was an extraordinary human being, she was an artist, but just the depth of her love and compassion and sensitivity were

Ellen Michelmore — above, on piano and as a young child — served Theatre Three for decades. unlike anyone we’ve ever had in this theater family, and her loss will be felt forever.” As the lead of Theatre Three’s music department, Michelmore touched both audiences and staff. Musician Michael Chiusano said people who worked with her respected and appreciated her honesty: “If your part is not prepared, she will tell you where you stand,” he said previously. And Broadway actress and singer Amy Justman, who began working with Michelmore as a 10-year-old in 1989, said the music director was “kind and giving but tough.” “I had never seen a woman like Ellen,” she said when Michelmore was named a Person of the Year. “She sent me on a path. … I have a lifelong connection to her and am so grateful for her.”

Michelmore played such a big role in the Theatre Three community that the theater honored her with a musical tribute in 2014, called “Ellen Michelmore: Notes From the Heart,” that featured singers, actors and musicians who had worked with her. Michelmore is survived by her husband, Jeff Lange, who is also a musician. He has previously noted, “Ellen’s passion has been her job ever since she arrived at Theatre Three.” Her presence is not something that will soon be forgotten at the theater. Sanzel said Friday, “In all that she’s been through in these last five years, her bravery was extraordinary and she never stopped loving all the people around her.” In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center.

Photos from Suffolk County Community College

At top, SCCC President Shaun L. McKay, left, orders a $1 million check be unveiled.

$1 million for Sharks By ELAnA GLowATz A Belle Terre resident opened his wallet to give back to his alma mater last week, donating $1 million to Suffolk County Community College. Robert Frey, through his Frey Family Foundation, made the gift as the college honored him during its annual Salute to Excellence Gala on May 5, for the foundation’s contributions to SCCC. The college said it was the largest gift from a graduate in its 58-year history. “I tend to not do these things in the way that gets attention,” Frey said in a phone interview on Monday. But he said he thought the action would “trigger other people” to support the college. Frey is a research professor at Stony Brook University and the director of its quantitative finance program, within the applied mathematics and statistics department, among other positions at SBU. He is also a businessman, serving as CEO of international investment management firm FQS Capital Partners Ltd. and of his family office, Harbor Financial Management. He graduated from the college in 1978. His wife Kathy and daughter Megan also graduated from SCCC. After Suffolk, Frey went on to Stony Brook University, where he eventually earned a doctorate in applied mathematics. “I never would have gotten started without Suffolk,” he said, which is why he wanted to give back. He grew up in Brooklyn, a “lower middle class Irish-American whose access to education at a price he could afford changed his life.” He said he hopes the $1 million will be used for capital improvements and scholar-

ships, but he specifically “didn’t want to put too many restrictions on this” because he trusts the college officials’ judgment. The donor “recognizes the transformative value of his foundation’s contribution and the impact it will have on the lives of our students,” college President Shaun L. McKay said in a statement. “We cannot thank him enough for his generosity and commitment to our institution.” Frey’s name is familiar to more than just the Suffolk and SBU campus communities — he was previously a member of the Port Jefferson school board, before resigning in 2011 for health reasons. He was once on the Mount Sinai school board when he lived in that community. He has worked for his community in other ways as well. The community college said he has served on the boards of the nonprofit volunteer safety group The Alliance of Guardian Angels; the Port Jefferson-based nonprofit Hope House Ministries; the National Museum of Mathematics in New York City; the Suffolk Community College Foundation; and the Stony Brook Foundation. This isn’t the first time the Frey Family Foundation has donated a large sum to a local institution — it has previously given to both Stony Brook University and John T. Mather Memorial Hospital. In the case of Suffolk Community and why it deserved support, Frey stressed that the courses are high-caliber and the college cares about its students, many of whom would not have had access to advanced education or training without it. “It does meet the needs of so many people,” he said. “There are probably few things … where your money is going to be used more effectively than in education.”

Slow and steady wins Village putting in three bumps to reduce speed By Elana Glowatz Officials have a message for the speed demons: Hold your horses. Port Jefferson Mayor Margot Garant announced at a recent board of trustees meeting that the village is going to lay down three speed tables — trafficcalming devices that are “glorified speed bumps, similar to what you see in the high school driveway.” The road off Barnum Avenue leading up to the shared Port Jefferson Middle School and Earl L. Vandermeulen High School building has a few of the speed tables, which are longer than speed bumps and have flat tops. According to Garant, the village’s plan is to put one on the curvy, western end of Highlands Boulevard in upper Port and one on Caroline Avenue in lower Port. A third speed table is slated to go on the eastbound side of East Broadway, near the Bleeker Street crosswalk, but it remains to be seen whether it will be permanent. That spot was chosen “because people are flying up and down that hill,” Garant

the speed tables will be similar to those found at the Port Jefferson high school campus. said during the May 2 meeting. “Trust me, you’re not gonna want to go over those [speed tables] once or twice at the speed that you would normally have been driving on those roads.” The mayor said the village is in the process of getting estimates on the road additions, which were chosen instead of stop signs because “stop signs are not a traffic-calming tool. ... They’re instituted for safety coming in and out of intersections.”

MAY 12, 2016 • THE PORT TIMES RECORD • PAGE A9

School districts take on the tax levy cap By Elana Glowatz Desperate times call for desperate budget measures. For the first time in four years, a northern Suffolk County school district is taking aim at its tax levy cap, looking to bust through

that state budget ceiling as more districts around New York do the same in tight times. The New York State School Boards Association said the number of school districts seeking a supermajority of voter approval — 60 percent — to override their

caps has doubled since last year. The group blames that trend on inflation. The state cap limits the amount a school district or municipality can increase its tax levy, which is the total amount collected in taxes, from budget to budget. While commonly referred to as a “2 percent tax cap,” it actually limits levy increases to 2 percent or the rate of inflation — whichever is lower — before certain excluded spending, like on capital projects and pension payments. This year, the rate of inflation was calculated at just 0.12 percent and, after other calculations, the statewide average for an allowed tax levy increase will be 0.7 percent, according to NYSSBA. “The quirks and vagaries of the cap formula mean it can fluctuate widely from year to year and district to district,” Executive Director Timothy G. Kremer said in a statement. More school districts are feeling the pressure — a NYSSBA poll showed that 36 districts will ask voters to pass budgets that pop through their caps, double the number last year. It may be easier said than done:

Since the cap was enacted, typically almost half of proposed school district budgets that have tried to bust through it failed at the polls. That’s compared to budgets that only needed a simple majority of support, which have passed 99 percent of the time since the cap started. In 2012, the first year for the cap in schools, five districts on Suffolk’s North Shore sought to override it, including Mount Sinai, Comsewogue, Three Village, Rocky Point and Middle Country. Only the latter two were approved, forcing the others to craft new budget proposals and hold a second vote. Middle Country barely squeaked by, with 60.8 percent of the community approving that budget, and Comsewogue just missed its target, falling shy by only 33 votes. Numbers from the school boards’ association that year showed that more Long Island school districts had tried to exceed their caps and more budgets had failed than in any other region in the state. But four years later, Harborfields school district is taking a shot. Officials there adopted a budget that would increase its tax levy 1.52 percent next year, adding

In the first year, more LI schools tried to exceed their caps than anywhere else in New York. full-day kindergarten, a new high school music elective and a BOCES cultural arts program, among others. Board member Hansen Lee was “optimistic” that at least 60 percent of the Harborfields community would approve the budget. “We’re Harborfields; we always come together for the success of our kids and the greater good,” Lee said. The school boards’ association speculated that more school districts than just Harborfields would have tried to pierce their levy caps if not for a statewide boost in aid — New York State’s own budget increased school aid almost $25 billion, with $3 billion of that going specifically to Long Island. Now that New York school districts have settled into the cap, many Long Islanders’ eyes are on Harborfields, to see whether it becomes an example of changing tides.

Suffolk Republicans resist Bellone’s water quality fix By Phil Corso Suffolk Republicans said the county executive’s water quality plan stinks. County Executive Steve Bellone (D) recently unrolled a proposal that would allow voters to decide whether or not they would pay an extra $1 per 1,000 gallons of water to address nitrogen pollution in drinking and surface water across the region. And while some environmentalists heralded the plan, Suffolk Republicans said it would be unfair to the taxpayer and cost more than what Bellone might be leading residents to believe. Suffolk County Legislator Kevin McCaffrey (R-Lindenhurst) joined other members of the Republican Caucus at the county headquarters in Hauppauge to speak against Bellone’s proposal soon after it was unveiled. Standing with him was Legislator Rob Trotta (R-Fort Salonga), who accused Bellone of using the water rate increase as a source of revenue to help balance the county’s $1.2 billion debt. “This is yet another attempt by Steve Bellone to get into the pockets of taxpayers,” Trotta said. “It is a ploy to use water protection as a means of covering for his mismanagement of county finances.” His proposal would establish a water quality protection fee that would fund the conversion of homes from outdated septic systems to active treatment systems, the county executive said. He estimated the $1 surcharge would generate roughly $75 million in revenue each year to be solely dedicated to reducing nitrogen pollution — and still keep Suffolk County’s water

The funds collected would be used in conjunction with other funding, such as from New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s (D) $383 million initiative to support clean water infrastructure. Residents living in countless communi-

ties, like Kings Park, which Trotta represents, have been on the county’s radar as locations in desperate need of a septic makeover. And while the county Republicans said they agreed that clean water must remain an important talking point in Suffolk, they argued that charging more for water might burden those residents already paying more

for sewer upgrades. “Residents in my district and districts around Suffolk County have been paying for a sewer district for over 30 years,” McCaffrey said. “The ‘Bellone Water Tax’ would make these residents pay for the same thing twice.” Suffolk Legislator Leslie Kennedy (RNesconset) said residents would not enjoy equal benefits from the proposal and, therefore, she was against it outright. “At this point I see this as nothing more than a tax increase on water usage for all,” Kennedy said. “Some may never see the benefit of sewers or nitrogen reduction cesspools in their lifetime.” The Republican Caucus is committed to fighting what they said was an unfair and unjust tax on Suffolk County residents and called on community leaders, elected officials and taxpayers to stand up for residents in Suffolk County and put an end to the Bellone Water Tax proposal. But not everyone stood opposed to the water quality initiative. In an interview, George Hoffman of the Setauket Harbor Task Force said Bellone’s plan would benefit Suffolk County for decades to come. Working so closely with some of the county’s most coveted bodies of water, Hoffman said the county needed to act, and fast. “It’s pretty clear that our harbors and bays are struggling. Until that’s addressed, there’s going to be nothing we can do as a harbor group to be better,” he said. “We can prevent runoffs, but we can’t prevent the seepage from the homes along the shore. What we like about the initiative is it puts water quality at the top of the agenda.”

oBITUARY Amy Friend

Amy E. Ward Friend died of cancer on Jan. 31. She grew up in Port Jefferson, class of 1971, graduated with honors and was known for her quick wit, ready smile and determination. But she is best remembered for her athletic prowess, especially in basketball. After she graduated from SUNY Potsdam, she worked in

service positions, eventually settling in Baltimore, Maryland, where she became a city firefighter. Unfortunately, her night vision began to fail and she retired early. She then served as an emergency medical technician at Union Memorial Hospital and, at the behest of her dearest friend, Gerri Lagenfelder, she enrolled in nursing school. At age 52, Amy found her

life’s calling as a registered nurse at Franklin Square Memorial Hospital. From the word “go,” Amy was always her patients’ advocate. She was kind, available, loved and respected by all for her work ethic. Amy was simply born to be a nurse. Sadly, her nursing career was all too brief, as her eyesight deteriorated to the point of legal blindness and she could

no longer do the job she loved. Her family and friends rallied around to help Amy adjust to a different life, but God had other plans. Amy’s memory is deeply cherished by her surviving family. A service will be held at Cedar Hill Cemetery in Port Jefferson at 11 a.m. on Saturday, May 14. In Amy’s name, donations can be made to Hope House Ministries in Port Jefferson.

John T. Mather Memorial Hospital held its 22nd annual Families Walk & Run for Hope on Saturday, May 7, to raise funds for its Fortunato Breast Health Center. Hundreds of people took the scenic 5-mile route through Port Jefferson and Belle Terre to support the center, where thousands of men and women receive care every year, and to support those

living with breast cancer, survivors and people who have died of the disease. The event also included festivities such as face painting, balloon sculptures and other family activities. According to the event’s fundraising page, this year’s Families Walk & Run for Hope brought in tens of thousands of dollars for the Port Jefferson care center.

As a result of showing outstanding leadership and character in physical education classes, two Edna Louise Spear Elementary School students were recognized with awards from the Suffolk Zone of the New York Association for Health, Physical Education, Recreation and Dance. The Port Jefferson fifth-graders, Eric Friedman and Lola Idir, earned their awards based upon recommendations from their physical education teachers. Photo from Port Jefferson school district

Warriors fall to Bayport Blue-Point in final seconds By Bill landon The Comsewogue boys’ lacrosse team led by three goals to open the third quarter, but undefeated Bayport-Blue Point came back to win 9-8 Friday night, with a shot with 11 seconds left on the clock. “Tonight’s atmosphere was awesome and

that’s what lacrosse is supposed to be and I thought we played well,” Comsewogue head coach Pete Mitchell said, adding that he was proud of his team for hanging with an opponent of Bayport’s caliber. “I thought we played well enough to win, but the kids played hard and I’m proud of their efforts tonight.” The Warriors wasted no time getting the game going when midfielder Matthew Spahr, a University at Albany-bound senior, found the back of the cage just eight seconds into

the contest, for the early lead. Bayport-Blue Point answered back three minutes later to tie the game, but Comsewogue senior midfielder Trevor Kennedy’s shot found the cage to help his team edge ahead 2-1 at the 8:46 mark. The Phantoms scored next, with four minutes left in the opening quarter, as Comsewogue drew a penalty and went a man down. Tied 2-2, Bayport-Blue Point looked to capitalize with the extra player, but Comsewogue’s defense stood its ground. With seven seconds left, Kennedy, who will play for Assumption College next spring, struck again to put his team out front 3-2 to open the second stanza. Bayport barked back by firing two quick goals to edge ahead 4-3 and take the lead for the first time, but the Warriors were quick to respond when midfielder John Koebel, an Endicott Collegebound senior, split the pipes to make it a new game, 4-4. “I thought we started out hot, but I knew they were going to come back — they’re a second half team,” Kennedy said. “I knew that they would come out to play in the second half.” Comsewogue rattled off the next three goals, with sophomore attack Richie Lacalandra, junior midfielder and attack Ryan Dorney and junior attack Will Snelders aiding the team in going up 7-4 to open the third quarter, but the Phantoms found a way to come back. Comsewogue played keep away until the team turned the ball over, and the Bayport made them pay for it. Despite being a man down themselves now, the team made four quick passes for a score that cut the deficit. With 34 seconds left in the third, Comsewogue’s opponent struck again as the Warriors struggled to stop the onslaught. With 10 minutes left, Comsewogue received a penalty, and committed another soon after, to go down two men. And the Phantoms

cashed in. Bayport, at 12-0 on the season, proved why it’s gone undefeated for a reason, and rattled off two more goals for an 8-7 lead with seven minutes left in regulation. Kennedy’s stick spoke once more when his shot found the net for his hat trick goal to deadlock the game with little time remaining. Overtime seemed likely, but on the ensuing faceoff, the Phantoms made three quick flips and fired at the Comsewogue cage. The shot found its mark and Bayport edged ahead to retake the lead, 9-8, with 11 seconds showing on the scoreboard clock. Comsewogue won the final faceoff and with precious seconds left, failed to find a clear lane to the cage. “We did some things that are uncharacteristic of what we do,” Mitchell said. “We lacked discipline by not taking a last shot in the final seconds.” The loss drops the Warriors to 9-3 in Division II with two games remaining before the playoffs. “They played a good game,” Mitchell said of Bayport. “And I hope to see them again.”

SPORTS

Two area men inducted in sports Hall of Fame BY ALEX PETROSKI Greatness in the world of athletics was on display to be celebrated Friday night. Members of the 27th class of the Suffolk Sports Hall of Fame were inducted at a ceremony held at the Hyatt Regency Hotel in Hauppauge. They will join past inductees, like Boomer Esiason and Craig Biggio, in the pantheon of impactful Suffolk sports figures. “Each year we induct the very best of Suffolk County,” master of ceremonies and 1999 Hall of Fame inductee David Weiss said to kick off the evening. “These are men and women on and off the playing field who had a positive and lasting impact, and have left a legacy for all of Suffolk County.” Among the inductees were Northport star lacrosse player Jill Byers; Setauket resident and 27year New York Jets beat reporter, Rich Cimini; legendary Harborfields football coach and Smithtown football star, Tom Combs; the first varsity boys’ basketball coach at Comsewogue, Frank Romeo; and Deer Park three-sport standout and football All-American at Stony Brook University, Chuck Downey. Richie LoNigro, owner of Port Jefferson Sporting Goods, which has been open since 1973, was also honored with a special recognition award. Cimini is the longest tenured Jets beat reporter in team history, working for the Daily News, Newsday and, for the past six years, ESPN. He has received awards from the As-

sociated Press and the Pro Football Writers of America for his work over the years. He joked that he didn’t feel like he belonged in a class with people who accomplished so much on the field, being that his accomplishments took place entirely in the press box. “I feel like the nerd who got invited to the cool kids party,” he said. He mentioned his supportive parents and his understanding wife of 25 years, who is OK with planning their lives yearly around the National Football League schedule. “She’s the real hall of famer in our family,” Cimini said of his wife Michelle, who is a lifelong New York Giants season-ticket holder. Tom Combs has been the athletic director in the Patchogue-Medford school district since 2003. Before that, he played Division II football at Ashland University in Ohio following his four years at Smithtown. He became the head football coach at Harborfields in 1990, where he won five county championships and two Long Island Championships over a 13-year run. “I am humbled by the talent and accomplishments of this class,” Combs said. “I’m just very honored and blessed to be up here.” Combs has two daughters who followed in his footsteps and became teachers and coaches. He thanked his family, friends and players for helping him to achieve the

successes that led to his induction. “Being a football coach is always something I wanted to do,” he said, adding that his players earning scholarships to attend college and play football was always important to him. “That’s what I’m always proud of as a coach.” In 1968, Frank Romeo became the first varsity basketball coach at Comsewogue. During a 24-year span, Romeo led Comsewogue to eight league titles, one large school Section XI title and 15 straight playoff appearances. From 1987 to 1990, Romeo’s record was 62-5. He left Comsewogue to become the head basketball coach at Suffolk County Community College in 1992, where he made the playoffs in all of his seven seasons there. Romeo used the word “we” repeatedly about his spot in the Hall of Fame. “For all of my former players at Comsewogue and at Suffolk Community College — they were the main ingredient in the term ‘we,’” he said. “They did the playing and they made the sacrifices. Some years we were good enough to win championships and other years we played just as hard and we didn’t win championships. They can now be assured that they made their mark in Suffolk County. They got us to the Hall of Fame.” Chuck Downey was a standout wrestler, football player and lacrosse player during his years at Deer Park.

Above, Frank Romeo, who was also inducted, coaches the a Comsewogue boys’ basketball player from the sidelines, and below left, speaks during the hall of fame’s formal induction. He was a part of Stony Brook University’s first football team in 1984, where he still holds nearly 30 school records and 12 NCAA records. He was a three-time All-American while at Stony Brook, which earned him a professional contract with the NFL’s Philadelphia Eagles. That marked the first time a Stony Brook athlete signed a professional sports contract. Downey has since followed in the footsteps of his father Raymond, an FDNY battalion chief. His father died in the line of duty on September 11, 2001. Weiss gave Downey a memorable introduction. “What a great way to end a won-

derful evening with an inductee who epitomizes the word hero from a family of heroes,” Weiss said of the last member to be announced. Many of Richie LoNigro’s 12 children, 25 grandchildren and five great-grandchildren were present to honor the man who has become a fixture in Port Jefferson. “I own a business that makes trophies and trophies are things that we’re all very proud of. I brought my trophies with me tonight and they’re all sitting out there in the audience,” he said, talking about his family. “These are my trophies and awards, and I take them with me wherever I go.”

Letters to the editor ‘Nanny state’ exists for the wealthy in America

People at a Port Jefferson anti-drug forum stay afterward to learn how to use the anti-overdose medication Narcan.

Prevention can fix the problem We’ve been hit with some staggering figures. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reported more than 28,000 overdose deaths in 2014 as a result of heroin or opioid abuse, the highest number on record. Last year alone Suffolk County suffered 103 fatal heroin overdoses. Suffolk tallied more heroin-related overdose deaths than any county in New York from 2009 to 2013, according to the New York State Opioid Poisoning, Overdose and Prevention 2015 Report. Although local and national initiatives have come from all different angles to try to combat the rise in heroin and opioid abuse, we think lawmakers lack focus. Most recently, U.S. Rep. Lee Zeldin (R-Shirley) endorsed a large legislation package that would review and update guidelines for prescribing opioids and pain medication and require a report to Congress on the availability of substance abuse treatment in the country, among many other provisions. While we applaud any earnest effort to combat the widespread problem, there needs to be more focus from one specific angle: prevention. With treatment and recovery options across the North Shore and with the rate at which the county is now taking down drug dealers, enforcement and rehabilitation are not our biggest problems. Instead, more needs to be done to deter kids from ever considering to try drugs in the first place. While some schools have begun to work on this, working with police to hold Narcan training sessions and informational forums, students should be seeing more than just numbers and figures, police officers or counselors. Tracey Budd, of Rocky Point, helped Suffolk County create a public service announcement, “Not My Child,” that has been shown in schools. Budd lost her son to a heroin overdose and her message is powerful. Kids need to see the struggles that addicts and their families go through to help hammer home how dangerous drugs are. We also urge parents to be more aware and involved. You know your child — look, listen and ask questions. There are signs in mood, behavior, habit and appearance that could warn you that there’s a serious problem. And don’t be afraid to set boundaries or to talk both about drugs and other topics that may seem difficult or awkward. Many people are drawn to drugs because of an underlying emotional issue, but letting a teenager know that nonjudgmental ears are listening could be a solution. Frederick Douglass once famously said, “It is easier to build strong children than to repair broken men.” Building those stronger children is how we should tackle our country’s growing drug problem.

In the April 28 edition, Ronald Gendron blamed America’s ills on President Barack Obama and liberalism (“America’s last stand,” A26). In the Citizens United v. Federal Election Commission case, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled 5-4 to permit unlimited and anonymous campaign contributions from corporations and wealthy individuals to super political action committees. The five conservative judges opened the floodgates of big money flowing to and controlling elected representatives. Ronald accuses liberals of creating a “nanny-state.” It was liberals who voted for Medicare, Social Security, affordable health care, labor law reform, child protection, occupational safety and health, minimum wages, consumer protection, affirmative action, equal opportunity, civil and voting rights and a multitude of legislation to benefit the working class. Liberals have a strong tradition of seeking to help the middle class and poor. The conservatives have a record of attempting to privatize or reduce Social Security and Medicare; opposing labor unions, equal pay for women, family leave, increased minimum wages and governmental regulatory agencies. Conservatives support free market capitalism and global trade agreements that cause American workers to compete against foreign labor, compelling them to accept longer hours, lower wages,

no fringe benefits and unsafe working conditions. Corporate welfare includes tax reductions, grants, subsidies, rebates and a myriad of loopholes. Wealthy individuals saw their tax rates go from 91 percent during the 1950s to 35 percent in 2016. The shift of the corporate and wealthy tax burdens were underwritten by high individual income taxes and lost services. While corporate and individual wealth increased, the average wages have been stagnant: 100 million Americans live at or near poverty level. From 1830 to 1970, every decade has brought an increase in income. Now the

top 0.1 percent has more wealth than the bottom 90 percent of Americans. The average employee must work one month to match the average CEO’s earnings for one hour. Billionaire Warren Buffet admits that he pays less a percentage of his income tax than his secretary. Yes, there is a “nanny-state” of untold gifts for the rich corporations and wealthy individuals. Liberals and conservatives must unite to force our political and economic systems to serve the needs of the whole society, not merely the top few.

A war of words, wills and wallets

ords mean everything. Words mean nothing. What’s going on in the world of words? Well, for one, we’ve become hypersensitized to words. Or, wait, maybe we’re desensitized. We fling words across the aisle at our enemies, becoming both a victim and a perpetrator. We are more sensitive than the other guy until he seems and then By Daniel Dunaief absurd, we claim that his hypersensitivity is triggering our insensitivity. And therein lies the tricks of the trade. Shakespeare would have a field day with a world so preoccupied with gender. The Bard focused on gender

identity and gender issues through many of his writings and musings. Are we the gender we choose, or do others have too much to lose, if we allow people to use the restroom of their gender identity? Now that it looks like it’ll be Trump versus Clinton, the epic battle will no doubt become a war of words, wills and wallets. Who has the most money, where did it come from — and how will these people who have millions and billions help those with big dreams but small bank accounts? Bernie Sanders isn’t going gently into that good night, nor should he. He’s forced Clinton to focus on the unequal distribution of wealth and he seems to be having a jolly time through a primary season that has brought pain and suffering to so many Republicans. Whither Jeb Bush? The poor establishment candidate had the money but not the votes, while Trump directed verbal daggers at everyone else in the field. Whether Cruz was a lyin’ guy or not, Trump stuck that label on him the

way novelist Nathaniel Hawthorne attached the scarlet “A” (for adulteress) to Hester Prynne in “The Scarlet Letter.” Now that he’s no longer in the race, will Cruz decide to play the lyre, or will he retire from the national scene? You have to imagine Trump is preparing memorable one-liners for the woman who wants a shot at the White House. When you don’t have anything else to say this year, make sure you point an angry finger in the direction of your adversary for whom you have abundant animosity. Will Hillary deflect the disparaging dialogue the Donald directs, or will she flutter and stutter like so many of Trump’s other adversaries who have become political roadkill? Will he focus on her face as he did with Carly Fiorina? Leaving the political realm, how about those Yankees? I know the better bet is the Mets. The team from Queens is proving that last year was no aberration, and it has the pitching and the hitting to play deep into October. But

I’m a Yankee fan through and through which means that, these days, I’m feeling blue. I suspect the cast of “Gilligan’s Island” might even feel sympathy for a team that’s discovered a myriad of methods to strand runners every game, with nary a chance to cross the plate and return home. The Bronx Bombers are playing like Bronx Bummers. This team, with its expensive, aging veterans and its floundering youngsters, may finish below .500. Even in a world where one out of three isn’t bad for a hitter, one out of two wins is horrific for any team. And then there are the movies, those sweet escapes from the political jungle and the athletic battlefield. But wait, the top-grossing movies of last weekend were “The Jungle Book” and the Civil War movie with Captain America, which means that even in our movie dreams we are escaping to familiar themes. Maybe we enjoy our imaginary characters going to battle, allowing us to turn our words into swords.

tion at the University of Munich and attended a class taught by Karl Haushofer, a proponent of the principle of lebensraum (“living space”), which urged the need for more land. Postwar life in Bavaria at that time was chaotic, with fights erupting between right-wing groups and Communists, and Hess was drawn to battles in the streets as a member of the Thule Society, an extreme anti-Semitic gang. In 1920, after hearing Hitler speak at a Nazi rally in Munich, Hess became totally devoted to him and joined the Nazi Party. From then on Hess was almost inseparable from Hitler, being at his side in the abortive Beer Hall Putsch of 1923 when Hitler tried to stage a coup d’état, and was in prison with him subsequently where he talked to Hitler about the lebensraum idea that became a pillar of the Nazi platform and justification for conquering lands in Eastern Europe. And while in prison, Hess helped Hitler write his “Mein Kampf” (“My Struggle”). After they were released, he was even subsequently injured protecting Hitler from a bomb planted by a Marxist group. When Hitler and the Nazis finally did seize power in 1933, Hess became a cabinet member and was frequently the one who would introduce Hitler at rallies and speaking engagements. If

Hitler could not attend, Hess would be his surrogate, addressing the crowds. Part of his cabinet responsibilities was to cosign every law decreed by Hitler, including the Nuremberg Laws, which stripped Jews of their rights as German citizens and set the stage for the Holocaust. Meanwhile Hess regularly took lessons, becoming ever more skilled as a pilot. When war broke out in 1939, he asked Hitler if he could join the Luftwaffe but Hitler forbade it, telling him he couldn’t fly again until the end of the war but eventually limiting the ban to one year. Hess had been Hitler’s private secretary for years but was replaced by Martin Bormann, who gradually surpassed Hess in his relationship to Hitler. About the time his flying ban was lifted, Hess confided to his son that he wanted to arrange peace negotiations between Hitler and Churchill. He talked about flying to meet with the Duke of Hamilton in Scotland, who was known to Albrecht Haushofer, the son of Hess’ professor and with whom Hess had become a good friend. They believed, mistakenly, that Hamilton was a leader of the opposition against the war. Hess began outfitting a sophisticated airplane with the necessary equipment to reach Scotland, including

auxiliary fuel tanks, and after abortive tries due to weather or mechanical limitations, finally took off on May 10, 1941. That was six weeks before Hitler planned Operation Barbarossa, the surprise invasion of the Soviet Union. Hess was distressed at the prospect of two fronts and was determined to get Britain to sit out the rest of the war. Hess was able to get to the coast of Britain before the radar picked him up, and before fighter planes sent up to intercept him could shoot him down. He flew at extremely low altitude and when he was near his destination, he parachuted out of his plane and landed within a few miles of Hamilton’s home. Churchill was not interested in his plan and the British held him as a prisoner of war. Hitler was reportedly enraged by Hess’ action and, disavowing any such knowledge on his part, stripped Hess of all his offices and decorations, fearing the response of Mussolini and the Japanese to such a unilateral move. Ultimately Hess was tried in the first round of prisoners at the Nuremberg trials and sentenced to life. He died in Spandau Prison in 1987 at age 93 by suicide. The question will always remain for historians to argue: Did Hitler send Hess on his doomed mission?

Anniversary of a bizarre WWII mystery

O

ne of the more curious footnotes to World War II occurred 75 years ago this week. On a May evening in 1941, Rudolph Hess, deputy führer of the Third Reich and No. 3 man in line of succession after Hitler and Hermann Göring, flew solo from Germany to Scotland and parachuted into the waiting arms of the British. So who was Hess and why did he make this bizarre wartime flight? He By Leah S. Dunaief was born into a prosperous German merchant family living in Egypt just before the turn of the 20th century. The oldest of three children, he was by inclination a warrior and immediately after World War I broke out, he joined the infantry. He was wounded several times during the war, always returning to the front when he recovered and earning medals that included the Iron Cross in 1915. Toward the end of hostilities, he trained as an aviator. In 1919 he continued his educa-
