The entry deadline is March 31. Winners will be chosen in three age categories: kindergarten to grade 2, grades 3 and 4 and grades 5 and 6 — and announced May 1. If you have questions, please email kids@emmaclark.org or call 631-9414080, ext. 123. —Donna newman

Local residents divided on Presidents Day

Protestors condemn Trump’s actions, others sing his praises By Kevin Redding kevin@tbrnewspapers.com North Shore residents on both sides of the political spectrum made their voices heard during a local iteration of the nationwide Not My Presidents Day protest Monday, Feb. 20. Those driving down Route 25A in East Setauket between 3 and 5 p.m. on Presidents Day found themselves caught in between the country’s most heated debate. On one side of the road, a large crowd of diverse protesters rallied against President Donald Trump (R) and his policies, holding up signs that read “Trump is toxic to humans” and “Not my President.” On the other side, a smaller but just as passionate group gathered to support the commander-in-chief, holding signs that read “Liberal Lunacy,” with an arrow pointed toward the group on the other side, and “Pres. Trump Will Make America Great Again.” Not My Presidents Day rallies took place across the country including New

York, Chicago, Los Angeles, Atlanta and Philadelphia, with thousands of Americans taking to the streets to denounce the president, just one month into his term. The main group involved in East Setauket’s rally was the Long Island Activists for Democracy, an offshoot of MoveOn.org, which, according to its website, is the largest independent, progressive, digitally connected organizing group in the United States. Activists for Democracy founder Ruth Ann Cohen, from Lake Grove, held a sign that asked “Why Is Not My President Adolf Trump in Love with Putin?” She said she started the meetup in an effort to “uphold democracy” and stand up to the president, whom she called a traitor. “He refuses to show his taxes, he’s been monetizing the presidency left and right, he’s denigrated our country, he’s a coward, and a misogynist,” Cohen said. Referring to those on the other side of the road, she said, “Those people don’t believe in anything, their minds are full of hatred ... build a wall? We’re for a free shake for everybody. Everyone here is the child or grandchild of a refugee and they want to pull up the drawbridge and keep everybody out.” Those on the anti-Trump side voiced their concerns of several issues regarding the 45th president, including his now overturned executive order to ban those from Muslimmajority countries, controversial cabinet nominations and what some called “a rise of fascism in this country.” “I think there’s a general belief the man [Trump] is not competent to be president and that’s what’s brought all these people out,” Stony Brook resident Craig Evinger said. Bill McNulty, a Setauket resident and Army veteran who served between 1957 and 1964, said he’s been rallying on behalf of anti-war and anti-violence for decades

Mount Rushmore in South Dakota immortalizes four of America’s greatest presidents.

Hail to the chiefs: inspiration for local leaders By Kevin ReDDing kevin@tbrnewspapers.com In celebration of Presidents Day, local elected officials weighed in on the occupants of the Oval Office who inspired them to do what they do. State Sen. Kenneth LaValle (R-Port Jefferson) — Abraham Lincoln “If you were in my office, whether in Albany or here in the district, you would see lots of pictures of Abraham Lincoln. When you’re growing up and you’re reading about different presidents, the idea of Lincoln being kind of a frontiersman and the way he grew up and the stories about him are very exciting. As you get older and you start looking into Lincoln’s life, you see the kind of person that he is. He cared very deeply about people and if you look at photos of Lincoln, you could see the deep lines, as some people call ‘worry lines,’ because he cared so much. During the Civil War, he visited wounded soldiers and was very touched by their lives. “I have great concern for people and try to be very helpful to people, and I think Lincoln certainly reinforces those goals.” State Assemblyman Steve Englebright (D-Setauket) — A Secretary of the Interior “My inspiration came not from the Oval Office, but from Interior Secretary James Watt, who served under President Ronald Reagan. Watt wanted to sell our national parks, starting with Jamaica Bay at the Gateway National Recreation Area. “I think it was a brilliant concept to bring the national parks on both coasts together. Although it didn’t fit the wilderness model, it was an innovation that was already in place. So the Secretary of the Interior was proposing to sell one of the parks. That upset me a lot.

“We don’t have many national parks in New York State and there are only two on Long Island — and he wanted to sell one. It was a life-changing experience for me. It seems like only yesterday, but it was years ago. “And it didn’t happen. There were a lot of people in Congress at that time who cared about the environment. Despite his intent, thoughtful people opposed the idea and prevailed. “The Jamaica Bay Wildlife Refuge became the number one place in the U.S. for spotting bird species. It is located right on the Atlantic flyway and people have continued to enjoy the coastal environment in our own urban national park. It is probably the only wildlife preserve in existence with its own subway stop.” Suffolk County Executive Steve Bellone (D-West Babylon) — Harry S. Truman “Harry Truman’s my favorite president. He was an ordinary man who did extraordinary things and demonstrated that you can reach the highest levels of our government while maintaining your integrity. More than 20 years ago, I read David McCullough’s book “Truman” and it was one of the best political biographies I’ve ever read. When I served on active duty in the U.S. Army, I was based in Missouri — which is the home state of Truman — and I visited his home and library in Independence. “What was inspiring to me, and it really represents what our country is about, was that anyone can be president and that you can reach the highest levels of our government and really maintain your integrity. Truman’s honesty really impressed me.” Suffolk County Legislator Kara Hahn (D-Setauket) — George Washington/Teddy Roosevelt/Franklin D. Roosevelt

“I grew up knowing my father’s family were descendants of Elbridge Gerry, a signer of the Declaration of Independence and fifth vice president of the United States of America. A quote of his sums up relevant influence on my public service: ‘It is the duty of every man, though he may have but one day to live, to devote that day to the good of his country.’ “A portrait of President George Washington hung in the dining room of my childhood home and was a constant presence and reminder of our heritage and national pride. As chair of the Legislature’s environment and parks committees, Teddy Roosevelt—a great Long Islander—naturally also is an inspiration. Known as ‘the conservation president,’ during his time as president Roosevelt preserved almost 200 million acres for national parks, five times more than all of his predecessors combined. As a proud progressive and advocate for the needy, I also admire and am inspired by the work of President Franklin D. Roosevelt, whose New Deal programs lifted our nation out of the Great Depression. And he established Social Security, to protect and aid seniors in retirement.” Brookhaven Town Supervisor Ed Romaine (R-Center Moriches) — John F. Kennedy “Kennedy had a sense of humor, had a sense of history and he learned from his mistakes. His mistake early in the administration was to follow through with Eisenhower’s decision that he did not execute well, with the Bay of Pigs invasion, and he learned from that. I think that’s why he was so successful thereafter when, in 1962, a year-and-a-half after, we had the Cuban missile crisis, and he was able to diffuse that despite the urging that we invade or bomb Cuba. He avoided that and avoided a

crisis and potentially a world war. “I was also extremely impressed with his June 1963 speech at American University about how we all live on one planet and about peace being a much nobler goal, while we were in the middle of the Cold War. He could see beyond that, so I think he had vision. “Obviously as a person, he had a lot of shortcomings, which a lot of people have dwelled on since the time of his death, but I think as a man and as a leader, people wanted to follow him and I think he was a good president. I know if he had lived, we would not have been in the Vietnam War. He spoke against getting involved. It was sad to see him go, because in going, the policies changed dramatically, and when we changed leaders, we committed an entire generation to war and turned a lot of people into cynics against their government. “[Inspired by him], I try not to rush to judgment, I try to step back and put things in context and have a sense of history. As someone who has all my degrees in history, I try to put things in context and that helps a lot.” Brookhaven Town Councilwoman Valerie Cartright (D-Port Jefferson Station) — Barack Obama “I think Obama, who was a law school professor, intimately understood how to use the law to help others and he actually worked his way up through government, so he took all the steps and is a bottom-up leader. Obama being an activist and community organizer really impressed me. I think it’s important that we [as elected officials] are in the community, and talk to people face-to-face about their issues. I think that he is, arguably, the most eloquent, dignified and diplomatic president of my time and I try to emulate his qualities.”

Presidents day 2017 Continued from page A3 but with “the coming of Trump, it’s much more than that now.” “We have to stand in opposition in every way, shape or form,” McNulty said. “With my military background, if I were serving today, I would not obey this commanderin-chief. I would say ‘no.’” Across the road, American flags waved in the wind and patriotic songs played through a speaker, as members of the North Country Patriots — a military support group formed after the Sept. 11 attacks that meets at the corner every weekend in support of soldiers young and old — stood their ground with signs that read “God Bless American Jobs” and “Trump: Build The Wall.” The group’s founder, Howard Ross of East Setauket, said he and the group “believe in our country, believe in serving our country and doing the right things for our country.” Ross said those on the other side of the road remind him of the people who spit on him when he returned home from serving during the Vietnam War. “I’m never giving my corner up,” he said. “I love to see that flag fly and those people don’t like that. I’ve never heard Obama in eight years get beat up like the press beats up Trump.” A Tea Party member in the gathering, who asked not to be named, said he was there to support the current president, adding “the resistance to him is unprecedented everybody’s against him ... this is an existential threat to our democracy to not let the man perform his duties.”

Jan Williams from Nesconset, wore a red “Make America Great Again” hat and held up a sign that read “We Support The President, The Constitution, The Rule of Law.” “We’re here because it’s Presidents Day and the election’s over and this is not the way to get anything done, to get the points across,” Williams said. “You’ve got to support the president, the Constitution and rule of law. We’re here to show support, that’s all.” The anti-Trump side chanted “this is what democracy looks like” and sang “This Land Is Your Land,” while the Trump side chanted “Build the wall” and “God bless America.” Throughout the rally, drivers passing the groups honked their horns and hollered out their window to show support for one side or the other.

Opposing views on opposite sides of Route 25A in East Setauket Monday.

The Stony Brook University music department brought their traveling “instrument petting zoo” program to the Emma S. Clark Memorial Library, Feb. 11. The presentation, hosted by the Staller Center for the Arts, provided children from ages 3 to 5 the opportunity to learn more about various instruments. More than 30 children in attendance listened as musicians talked about a variety of instruments including violins, clarinets, flutes, guitars and more. After the discus-

sion, they played a version of the nursery rhyme “Old MacDonald Had a Farm” and used the names of instruments instead of animals in the song. Towards the end of the program, children had the opportunity to touch the instruments, as well as play them with the assistance of the musicians. Each of the children was given a kazoo to take home, as well as a brochure featuring the instruments they learned about during the program.

‘Red Light Robin Hood’ avoids prison time with plea By Kevin Redding kevin@tbrnewspapers.com The merry adventures of Suffolk County’s “Red Light Robin Hood” continued recently as the Centereach resident who took matters into his own hands by tampering with red light cameras across county intersections struck a plea deal with prosecutors. The agreement reached will place him on interim probation for one year in lieu of any prison time. Stephen Ruth Jr., who has been crusading against the county’s red light camera program since 2015 in an effort to “take the power back” by exposing what he considers government corruption and helping save Suffolk residents’ lives — for which he’s been called a domestic hero on social media — pleaded guilty in Riverhead Feb. 8 to a felony charge of criminal mischief. Since the county first installed red light cameras at busy intersections in 2010, which snap flashing photos of cars that run a red light or don’t come to a complete stop before turning right on red, they’ve been widely opposed across the county. Ruth, who’s become the boastful face of the opposition — as evidenced by his smiley mug shot after first tampering with the devices in 2015 —has consistently called for the program’s repeal before the Suffolk County Legislature. He said the cameras and shortened yellow lights, “shortened to cause red light running for a profit,” are responsible for fatalities and accidents on the roads, have been illegally constructed without an engi-

neer signing off on them, and are nothing more than a Suffolk County “money grab.” “I was willing to go to jail from the beginning because I’m sticking up on behalf of those people who don’t have a voice anymore,” Ruth said. “These cameras are completely illegal and the [county] is not allowed to collect any money off them whatsoever ... I knew this was going on and made my own news.” Under the plea deal Lake Grove attorney, David Raimondo, said if Ruth successfully completes his probation, the felony plea will be dropped to a misdemeanor. The 44-year-old real estate salesman may also have to pay up to $85,000 in restitution for all the cameras and equipment he’d left inoperable — a charge that will be challenged during a restitution hearing in April. Raimondo said he and his client will fight because “we believe that the entire red light camera system program is illegal and every single ticket issued from day one is a nullity.” In the wake of the court ruling, Raimondo acknowledged that it was a good plea. “This is something the county has to atone for and will atone for in civil litigation ... it is not Stephen’s or his family’s cross to bear,” Raimondo said. “Why should Stephen sacrifice his personal freedom for what I think is nothing more than enterprise corruption?” As Ruth has always worn his criminal tampering and obstruction of governmental administration as a badge of honor — even proudly demonstrating on his YouTube channel how he uses a painter’s extension rod to reach high-positioned red light cam-

he said. “I [especially] admire that Stephen brought to the public’s attention the fact that the yellow light times have been shortened by the engineers because unfortunately people have been seriously injured and perhaps killed as a result.” Ruth, in calling for a full investigation into the camera program to prove it’s an illegal

PeoPle Gelinas funds clean water project

Seventh-graders at P.J. Gelinas Junior High School read the book “A Long Walk to Water,” and now they are working with science teachers on a fundraising effort to provide clean drinking water to children in Africa who have limited access to it. In an article about biodiversity and the impact of humans on the environment, the students learned about a resource called LifeStraws, which eliminates impurities from the water that it filters. Inspired by a chance

to make a difference, the students have been collecting money to purchase three of these devices for a school in Africa. They will provide children with clean water for three to five years. Students have been placing their spare change into containers throughout the multiweek drive, waiting to see which science class creates the heaviest container. To date, the school has raised approximately $800 for the effort.

Native American history visits

“A Long Walk to Water” inspires science teachers and students to raise funds.

As part of a study on Native Americans, fourth-grade students at W.S. Mount Elementary School participated in a handson workshop titled Journey into American Indian Territory. The history and lives of Eastern Woodlands people were brought to the classroom through a presentation and group activities. Students began the two-day program by watching a video about Native Americans and spent the afternoon visiting a travel-

ing museum of artifacts. They learned how to play traditional games that encouraged teamwork and honed survival skills. Students got an up-close look at animal pelts, musical instruments, traditional clothing, athletic equipment and hunting tools. They each took a turn grounding corn and a tour of a replica longhouse. On the second day, students learned about Native American government and created clay duck decoys using traditional techniques and materials.

obituaries Catherine Boccio

Catherine “Kitty” Boccio of Stony Brook died Feb. 10 at Stony Brook University Hospital after a courageous battle with cancer. She was 80. The youngest of six children, Catherine was born June 11, 1936 in Brooklyn to parents Frank and Rose Sottilaro. She married John Boccio in 1958 and they lived in East New York with their two daughters, Angela (Pete) Smith and Laura Virga, until they moved to Stony Brook in 1967. She has been blessed with three grandchildren: Katelyn Virga of Seattle, Washington, Alexandra Virga of Rochester, New York and Catherine Smith, a student at Penn State University. Primarily a consummate homemaker, mother and excellent cook, Kitty was also employed by the Three Village School District for several years, where she was instrumental in setting up the North Country Learning Center in Stony Brook. She eventually was employed by Stony Brook University, where she became administrative secretary to the dean in the department of materials science. She retired in 2002, after 20 years of service at SBU. Her fellow workers, students and professors best remember her for her integrity, honesty, thoughtfulness and logical approach to solving administrative

problems. She fully enjoyed her job. A funeral mass for her will be held Tuesday, March 7 at the St. James RC Church on Route 25A in Setauket at 10:45 a.m., followed by a burial service on church grounds. Arrangements were entrusted to the Bryant Funeral Home in East Setauket. Please visit www.bryantfh.com to sign the online guestbook.

Douglas G. Smith

Douglas G. Smith died peacefully Feb. 11 at his home in East Setauket. He was born May 27, 1944 in Mansfield, Ohio. Doug was a man of many trades and talents. He received a bachelor of science degree from Hiram College, then proceeded to earn a Ph.D. from Stony Brook University. After earning his degree in the 1970s, Doug became an assistant professor of biology/animal behavior. In 1980 he changed professions and became part-owner of Setauket Hardware, until the store was closed in 1997. Most recently he worked as the locksmith at Ace Hardware in Setauket. He was a lifelong ornithologist and in his spare time enjoyed repairing antique clocks for the Spinney Clock Museum in Port Jefferson. He is survived by his wife, Gretchen; two daughters, Kristin and Lauren; two

granddaughters, Anna and Sophia; and his brother Bruce. Our family would like to thank the doctors and staff of John T. Mather Memorial Hospital, especially the MIRA program, and the doctors and staff at North Shore Hematology/Oncology Associates in Setauket, for their excellent care. Their combined talents gave Doug two-plus years to enjoy family, friends and life. The last sounds he heard were that of a great horned owl outside his bedroom window. A memorial service was held Wednesday, Feb. 15 at Bryant Funeral Home in East Setauket, where family and friends celebrated his life. Contributions in his memory may be made to the Salvation Army of Patchogue, New York. Please visit www.bryantfh.com to sign the online guestbook.

Walter Joseph Munsch

It is with great sorrow we announce Walter J. Munsch died surrounded by loved ones, Feb. 1.

A self-proclaimed “Wall Street dinosaur,” Walter pioneered the telecommunications industry at the beginning of the digital age. Walter ran seven New York City marathons; served in the First Cavalry, 13th Signal Group; and served on several local Port Jefferson committees. The library trustee was a favorite, as his love for reading manifested in a home library with more than 3,000 books. He dreamed the impossible dream. A memorial service will be held at Infant Jesus RC Church in Port Jefferson on his 82nd birthday Saturday, April 15 at 9 a.m. Interment of ashes will take place later that day.

Philip Brady chosen for Forbes ‘30 Under 30’ at 23 By Kevin Redding Kevin@tBRnewspapeRs.com At just 23, Setauket native and Ward Melville graduate turned Stanford graduate Philip Brady is the cofounder and manager of a $55 million fund which was closed in September 2016, has backed 12 startup companies and, alongside his college buddy, was the youngest venture capitalist featured in Forbes magazine’s “30 under 30” issue in January. As incredible as that all is, in the case of Brady — whose whole life has been about working hard and not following the beaten path — it makes perfect sense. In fact, he started his company, GoAhead Ventures, during his senior year at the California university as a way to avoid the type of career path on which he’d have to wait years for a promotion, move up the food chain slowly but surely and pay his dues — a path he was confused by and questioned: “But what if I work harder than anyone? Do I get to skip a few levels?” “[Early on] I realized I wanted to do something where the sky was the limit, where I had no boss, and if I worked really hard, I could make it extremely far,” Brady said. That lifelong mentality really took shape at the end of his sophomore year of college, when the young entrepreneur, who had been turned down left and right for consulting internships because he felt working up to four jobs was more important than getting perfect grades, decided he might as well start his own consulting firm based on his understanding of tech and startups, and learn more about the field by doing it rather than studying it. That firm, Copernican Solutions, began at the start of his junior year and is still going strong today, being run by Stanford students. In his senior year, Brady put consulting aside in favor of focusing

on venture capital in Silicon Valley, namely on the investing-in-startupcompanies side of things — a job usually exclusive to seasoned capitalists in their 40s and 50s. Not wanting to have to wait 30 years to gain the experience, he started GoAhead Ventures with fellow Stanford student Clancey Stahr and business colleague Takeshi “TK” Mori. The lucrative company works with young entrepreneurs, mostly college students and recent graduates, to help them achieve their

‘I realized I wanted to do something where the sky was the limit, where I had no boss, and if I worked really hard, I could make it extremely far.’ — Philip Brady startup company’s vision. With an investor base mostly in Japan, Brady and his fellow managing partners travel to Tokyo regularly. One of the 12 companies that GoAhead Ventures has backed, for instance, is the Stanford studentcreated Simple Emotion, which helps businesses improve customer satisfaction by analyzing and detecting emotion in the human voice during customer service conversations. In many ways, both companies he started, especially GoAhead Ventures, offer the sort of opportunities he was looking for as a student. “I really feel like there’s a whole lot of really capable young people, not just at Stanford but any university, and if someone is willing to work hard, they should be able

to have their experiences,” he said. “It shouldn’t all be grade-based. It should be about how hard you’re willing to work and if you’re willing to think outside the box. I guess for me that was the key to a lot of my success.” Since high school, Brady’s strong work ethic, instilled at an early age by his grandparents and combined with a passion for creating opportunities and helping others, has hoisted him above and beyond most of his peers. At 17, he started a fishing club at the Setauket Mill Pond. He not only taught members of the community how to cast their fishing rods and catch “at least one fish every lesson,” he also began an ecological research partnership with a graduate student at Stony Brook University. While at Ward Melville High School, Brady also wrote for a science blog, helped form the Model Congress, competed as a member of the Science Olympiad as a freshman and was even awarded “most likely to succeed” as a senior. He’s always been a voracious reader, and has a deep love for the outdoors (not just fishing but hiking and camping too) and science and technology. His father, Phil, who works at AXA Insurance Company in Manhattan, said he’s met a lot of people in life but has never met someone who works as hard as his son does. “He’s just always been a kid that never stops thinking, never stops working and never stops dreaming,” he said. “He’s not boastful or arrogant or superficial. He’s really grounded ... his moral compass is of honesty and integrity ... he’s never cheated on anything in life.” As a believer that the next generation should always do better than the previous one, he said he wouldn’t want to be his son’s kid. “My father came from nothing and worked his way up ... so of course I probably wound up doing a bit better than him, but Phil has

Gelinas Junior High School in East Setauket, taught Brady’s eighth grade Earth science class and was his Science Olympiad coach throughout seventh, eighth and ninth grades. “He was a phenomenal student: conscientious, hard-working, motivated, enthusiastic, versatile,” Vorwald said. “Through Science Olympiad, he studied herpetology, amphibians and reptiles, rocks and minerals, received medals at the regional tournament, worked on a lab team. He was always so pleasant and affable. He never seemed to get angry or frustrated ... he just always attacked a problem and tried to solve it.”

Brady said he loves venture capital and hopes to take what he’s created and build it into an empire someday. But through all the hard work he puts into it, he never considers what he does a job. “It really doesn’t feel like work. I never feel like I have certain hours or anything,” Brady said. “I’m just always on call, if something ever comes up. It’s not like I’m working nine to five. My job and my life are pretty much the same thing.” When asked if there’s anything he does for relaxation, somewhat of a foreign concept to Brady, he said, “Still fishing ... that’ll never change.” “Fishing is the only time where I’m actually not thinking about anything work-related,” he said. “Clear my mind, fish a little bit and then get back to reality.”

James Emanuel, a retired Suffolk County police officer, has dedicated himself to researching and testifying against the program, and is one of Ruth’s avid supporters. “I’ve spoken to a lot of police officers who privately are a big fan of what he did,” Emanuel said. “You get to the point where you have to push back against the system — you just don’t have a choice. The guy saw a danger and his attitude was, ‘I’m gonna push back.’ He turned himself in every single time and he didn’t have to do that.” Suffolk County Legislator Leslie Kennedy (R-Nesconset) acknowledges that red light cameras, although useful in some intersections, are overused and costly. “I think what Ruth thought he was doing was making a statement, and he clearly did

Three-point throwers power Patriots past first round Hansen, Hudzik head girls and boys teams By Desirée Keegan desiree@tbrnewspapers.com It was a winning weekend for Ward Melville. First, the No. 2 girls’ basketball team trampled No. 18 North Babylon, with sophomore Lauren Hansen putting up a gamehigh 35 points in 20 minutes Feb. 17. The Patriots demolished North Babylon 93-24. “Lauren played great like always and her putting up 35 points in 20 minutes is something really special,” said senior Taylor Tripptree, who finished with 15 points. Hansen scored more than half of the team’s first-quarter points, banking 15 of the 24, while the Patriots held their opponent to just five points. Twelve different Patriots managed to show up on the score sheet, including a few junior varsity players who got the call

to join the varsity squad, which impressed the veteran Tripptree. Junior Bre Cohn chipped in 12 points, which would have been enough to lead North Babylon in scoring. But to Hansen, who made eight shots from beyond the arc, the first-round win is only the first step. “We’re looking to win the whole thing,” she said. “We have to stay locked in each moment in practice and in preparation for the very next game.” She said she liked the way her team bounced back from its 38-33 loss to Brentwood in the last regular season game. “It was what we had to do,” Hansen said. “I give a lot of credit to my teammates. Without them, it wouldn’t be possible. I thought a lot about what I could’ve done better individually after the loss to Brentwood, and I let the loss soak in and the feeling of it, and I did a much better job in preparation before I even put the jersey on for game day. In practice, and out of it.” She said her team used the first-round win as motivation when it moved on to No. 7 Half Hollow Hills West for a home game Feb. 22, but results were not available by press time. “The game made a statement, showing that we are definitely on a mission,” Hansen said. “We call this a second season, and we’re focused on not dwelling on our accomplishments or obstacles in the regular season. Going into the second round I think it’s definitely time to amp our intensity up even more, and accomplish all that we have set out to do.” The next day, the No. 6 boys’ basketball team hosted No. 11 East Islip and also made short work of its opponent, with the Patriots bouncing the Redmen out of the postseason with a 66-34 victory. Ward Melville nearly doubled East Is-

lip’s first-quarter score, leading 17-9 after eight minutes. “I think we had a big first quarter because we were all excited to go out in front of our home crowd and win for them,” said senior Dom Pryor, who finished with a double-double on 14 points and 14 rebounds. “What really helped us get the win was our coaching staff making sure we were all prepared before the game even started. Coach made it specific that we were not doing anything different than we have all year, and that we just needed to play like we always do.” Like the girls, the boys also put forth a total team effort with nine different scorers. “I thought we all came together as a team and executed in all parts of the game,” Pryor said. “It’s always more comfortable when you have so many threats on offense, especially ones that are rarely off

their game.” Classmate Matt Hudzik liked what he was seeing from his teammate. “Dom works really hard,” Hudzik said. “He is everywhere on the court, is really good at playing defense and grabbing rebounds and loose balls.” Hudzik led all scorers with 21 points —18 on 3-pointers — and senior Alex Sobel banked six field goals and a free throw for 13 points. “My outside shot was feeling good and my teammates just kept finding me on the wing,” Hudzik said. “Before the game, we just talked about everyone doing their job. If everyone on the team does what they are supposed to, we play to the best of our ability.” In the quarterfinals, the Patriots fell to No. 3 Half Hollow Hills East Feb. 21, 75-59. Senior Alex Sobel scored a team-high 25 points, Pryor had 15 and Hudzik added 13.

Three Village teaching not guided by politics

Herman Lee in his Navy uniform (circa 1941)

Photo from Geral Lee

Black history deserves more than lip service It’s time we pay more attention to African-American history. Carter G. Woodson, Ph.D., a son of former slaves born in 1875 near New Canton, Virginia, is referred to as the father of Black History Month. Although he got a late educational start, beginning high school in his late teens, he proved an excellent student and completed high school in less than two years. He earned bachelor’s and master’s degrees from the University of Chicago and, in 1912, was the second African-American to be awarded a doctorate by Harvard University. In 1926 Woodson led an effort to establish an annual observance of Negro History Week. He chose to anchor the weeklong celebration in the second week of February in honor of the birthdays of President Abraham Lincoln (Feb. 12) and abolitionist Frederick Douglass (Feb. 14.) Since the accomplishments of African-Americans were largely absent from recorded history in the United States, Woodson dedicated his career to black history and worked to ensure it was taught in schools and studied by scholars. Woodson died in 1950, 26 years before President Gerald Ford officially recognized Black History Month in 1976. Americans of all shades now know the names of the iconic figures: Douglass and Nat Turner, Booker T. Washington, Harriet Tubman, Martin Luther King, Jr. and Rosa Parks. But of course, there are so many more. African-American history is filled with the stories of “regular people engaged in positive activities,” wrote Setauket resident Geral Lee in a “Your Turn” on Black History Month that appeared in The Village Times Herald Feb. 16. African-Americans have served this country heroically in battles on U.S. soil and abroad, oftentimes defending people who would not accept them as equals. They have advanced science and transportation, as evidenced recently in Margot Lee Shetterly’s book “Hidden Figures”, about the formerly unheralded mathematicians behind the scenes at NASA. Rocky Point High School social studies teacher Rich Acritelli wrote a story this week about the Tuskegee Airmen, a division of the U.S. Army created for African-Americans who wanted to fight for a country where they weren’t afforded basic human rights. Isn’t it time, after more than 40 years of Black History Month observances, for all Americans to take notice of the remarkable achievements of the countless regular folk engaged in positive pursuits who populate African-American history? In the words of Lee, “If [Black History Month] can fill in the gaps, identify injustice, encourage positive dialogue and provide a platform for people to work toward understanding one another, it is a valuable ongoing process.”

Our district regularly stresses the importance of being respectful of other’s opinions and not forming judgments on matters until all facts have been gathered. In putting this lesson into practice, I would like to clarify a few points made in a recent letter to the editor directed toward the district. In Mr. Kerr’s message on “molding young minds in 3V schools” [The Village Times Herald, Letters, Feb. 16] it was insinuated that a political bias had permeated our secondary schools following the election and presidential inauguration. This could not be further from the truth. As a public school system, our teachings on elections/ inaugurations are not guided by politics, but rather by the historical impact of the events themselves. Leading up to the election, many students at our junior high schools experienced democracy in action by taking part in mock elections. Results from these activities were shared by social studies teachers

in the ensuing days and follow-up conversations — absent feelings on the results — transpired within classrooms. The schoolwide announcement was made to ensure that all were apprised of the results, whether or not they had participated in the vote. At our high school Inauguration Day marked the end of the semester and the last day before the start of mid-year exams. As such, many students and staff members expressed concern about missing class for a mandatory viewing event. Additionally, as many remarked that technological resources would enable viewers to watch the event in its entirety, at a time convenient to them, our administration complied with the students’ and staff’s request to make the in-school viewing voluntary. To Mr. Kerr’s point, the schoolwide viewing of President Obama’s first inauguration took place on a Tuesday, which posed fewer scheduling and examination

concerns, and any requests to be excused from this viewing were granted. A broadcast of the inauguration was played in the auditorium for those who wished to view the event live. Furthermore, all individuals were informed that no punitive actions would be taken against those who attended and proper accommodations would be made for students who missed course work. Our district takes its responsibility of providing a safe and secure learning environment seriously. We continually promote the ideals of respect and encourage all members of our learning community to embrace their individual passions without fear of retribution. Furthermore, Three Village seeks to create equitable opportunities for all in our community.

Cheryl Pedisich Superintendent of Schools Three Village school district

Rep. Zeldin: Please meet with your constituents As a constituent of Lee Zeldin’s in the first congressional district, I am dismayed that our congressman has refused to hold a town hall meeting to answer his constituents’ concerns regarding his recent votes to repeal the Affordable Care Act, his vote to roll back existing environmental and gun safety regulations, as well as his vote against women’s health care access. These votes are of concern to many Long Islanders, and we have a right to ask our elected offi-

cial why he is not representing the diverse views of the first congressional district. I had the opportunity to meet with Congressman Zeldin and his district director last week. While our differences in philosophy were readily apparent, we had a good conversation. I encouraged the congressman to allow all of his constituents the same access that I was given, and hold a public forum where an exchange of concerns and ideas could happen. I think

it is crucial that those of us who disagree with the congressman should not be dismissed as the “radical and fringe left,” as many elected officials on the right have taken to calling us. We deserve to have our concerns addressed, and it is our elected leaders’ obligation to serve all of their constituents. I hope that Congressman Zeldin will live up to the legitimate expectations of those whom he represents.

Speak now, speak loudly: WM Beach needs Molly I have learned that the Town of Brookhaven’s intention to terminate Molly Hastings, the environmental educator/ranger at West Meadow Beach Preserve and Cedar Beach, has been upheld by the town-appointed hearing officer. This dreadful decision comes as no surprise. I had hoped that after 12 years of failing to invest the $1.45-million West Meadow Beach Trust Fund to earn interest income for much-needed work; failing to maintain the remaining cottages until they are now zombie shells; failing to insulate the environmental educator’s cottage from the bitter cold and winter wind for the entire time that Eileen Gerle, Molly’s predecessor, lived in it; failing to raise the Gamecock cottage above the high water line until just

last year; failing to install benches along the 1.25-mile length of Trustees Road so people have a place to sit; failing to abide by the special legislation that required preparation of annual proposals to preserve, protect and enhance West Meadow Beach Preserve; failing to follow the town’s own Master Plan; failing to provide a substitute educator for all of Molly’s 19 public and 22 school programs, as well as the tours, field trips, school assemblies, citizen scientist projects and volunteer work to protect endangered species; and failing to keep the marine animals in the Cedar Beach aquarium alive in the months following Molly’s suspension, the town might have the maturity, the decency and the good sense to look itself in the mirror and keep Molly in a job she

loves and did so well. Now it’s time for the public that benefited so much from Molly’s efforts to demand that Molly — who will lose a civil service position, her home, her health insurance and perhaps her career — be maintained in her position by the town until Assemblyman Englebright can introduce special legislation to authorize a private entity to take control of the $1.45-million trust fund and all of the operations at West Meadow Beach Preserve. Let us be very clear about one point: If the public does not speak now and speak loudly, Molly will be gone.

OpiniOn A case for knowledge instead of fear

hen we were young, we used to think he was hiding under our beds, in our closets or around the corner. Thoughts of this terrifying person kept us up at night, prevented us from closing our eyes and made us insist that our parents search every corner of our room, investigate each sound around us and make sure we were safe. Before I was born, the boogie man was the Soviet Union, spying on us from overhead in a satellite launched in October 1957.

lyn Dodgers’ move to Los Angeles or studying our driving routes to work. Today, of course, we have plenty of reasons to fear. Terrorists have made death and destruction their business. They appear bent on the idea that killing us somehow helps them. It’s horrifying and we need to protect ourselves. The manner in which we do that is up for debate, particularly as President Trump and his staff make a point of reminding us of all the events around the world that we should fear. We need a strong response, a readiness to act and a careful screening process, keeping out the undesirable elements. President Obama seemed intent on protecting the populace, albeit without the same level of directed rhetoric and without policies of exclusion. No president wants to be in the White House as the griever-inchief when he knows he could act through policies he has the power to write.

Fake news and readership clues

ake news is in the spotlight. Websites, blogs and social media are populated with it and even print can be. The goal of its perpetrators is to misinform and to destroy readers’ trust in what they read. This calls into question the real work of traditional journalists doing their jobs. Disinformation campaigns make all news suspect: What’s real and what’s fake? How can a free press properly be the watchdog of the people, the fourth estate of our democracy, if readers can’t believe what By Leah S. Dunaief they read? In an effort to sort out the real from the fake, especially in advance of key European elections in Germany, Holland and France, the European Union had created an 10-member team called East StratCom. These overworked diplomats, journalists and

Between you and me

bureaucrats pore through hundreds of stories a day on Facebook and Twitter, according to The New York Times, attempting to sort out truth from fiction. Of course, they are only partially successful. The load is overwhelming. But perhaps they do serve to make readers pause for a moment to consider and check if they read something surprising. The subject of fake news is deeply concerning to those of us in the news business. Please be assured, as I have noted in this column before, that our papers have no fake news. Mistakes? Of course. Corrections as soon as we know? You bet. We at Times Beacon Record News Media have no hidden agenda and no dark side. Our only mission is to communicate with you the unbiased news in our communities. Because a little humor leavens the task, I am including some sly old saws culled from the internet and sent me by a friend. I hope they give you a chuckle amid the serious business of reporting the news. You Are What You Read (or, perhaps, it should be We Read What We Are).

But is there a way to look into the human soul beyond religious stereotypes and beyond geographic boundaries to know what someone may intend to do? Is this boogie man exclusively one religion? Surely, there are plenty of people who grew up in different countries and follow other religions who commit horrible acts. Do we understand our enemy or do we just want to push those people, whoever they are — perhaps away? It’s never been clear to me how we can protect ourselves completely from any motivated aggressor, short of living in a concrete bunker deep in the ground, with admission limited to those with a thorough psychological and DNA profile. We don’t understand many of the mass murderers in our country. We interview their neighbors, family members and classmates after they’ve committed horrible acts. No one could possibly foresee that this unstable person was capable of these atrocities. And, if their associates

could have seen it coming, they are almost admitting culpability. If they say, “Of course, I wrote in my diary two months ago that he might be a killer,” they may feel that they share some responsibility for not preventing these acts. We need to understand each other and the way the human mind strays off track into a realm of darkness where relief and success are measured in bullets and body counts. We need to know our enemy. I don’t believe we can truly see our enemy in the color of their skin or their passport. Our mental health system will likely receive fewer dollars in the months and years ahead, so we can focus on building walls and keeping people out. Perhaps a better investment would be to understand the people we fear. Yes, we need to defend ourselves, but we can also build a mental health system that encourages people to find ways to heal instead of hurt. Who knows? Helping the boogie man could turn him into an ally instead of a sworn enemy.
