After earning its first trip to the NCAA as a Division I team, it was only fitting for the Stony Brook men’s basketball team to have a proper send-off. Fans young and old came out donning the Seawolves’ red and white, waving pom-poms and throwing up homemade banners and posters to show support for their favorite college basketball team. “It’s great for the school and great for the community and great for exposure,” senior Stony Brook standout Jameel Warney said. “You play to win. You play for admiration from the fans. We love the community and it’s great to be here. We’re coming out to win. We’re going to work out hardest and give it our all.” Warney, just days prior, tallied a career-high 43 points in the Seawolves’ 80-74 victory over

The University of Vermont in the America East Championship at the sold-out Island Federal Credit Union Arena. Warney was a remarkable 18for-22 from the field to go with a 7-for-10 showing from the free-throw line. The Seawolves senior added 10 rebounds and four blocks in his final home game at Stony Brook. Warney’s third-consecutive double-double gave him 59 for his Seawolves career. He tallied 25 of his 43 points in the second half. The 43-point, career-best performance eclipses his 36-point outing against the University of Hartford on Feb. 8. It is also the highest total in the Division I

era by any Seawolves player. Senior Carson “Trey” Puriefoy added 23 points to help secure the win. Puriefoy played all 40 minutes and showed how he got his nickname, draining all five of Stony Brook’s 3-pointers. He notched 16 of his 23 points in the second half, and was 8-for-10 from the free-throw line. Puriefoy, who moved within 28 points for third on the Division I scoring list with 1,562 points as of Saturday, took to the fans to tell them how lucky the team is to have their support. “We want to thank everyone for coming out,” he said. “We made history. You guys have been there for us all season long, we love

‘Old’ Three Village club gets new recognition By GiSELLE BaRKLEy

In the early 1930s, Setauket’s Old Field Club was a recreational hot spot that brought community members together for various events or programs. Now 87 years later, the club is still a reminder of Three Village’s past — especially now that it’s on the National Register of Historic Places. Brookhaven Supervisor Ed Romaine (R) designated Wednesday, March 9, as Old Field Club and Farm Day in the town in honor of that club’s newfound status. He joined Brookhaven Councilwoman Valerie Cartright (D-Port Jefferson Station), Brookhaven Historian Barbara Russell, Suffolk County Legislator Kara Hahn (D-Setauket), club member Kerri Glynn and Old Field Farm President Sally Lynch this week to pay tribute to the site and look ahead. While some clubs have had setbacks with fires, the Old Field Club’s clubhouse is still the original structure designed by architect Richard Haviland Smythe. Smythe didn’t only design the clubhouse but also the beach cabanas — his original court layout included a plan for the cabanas, which was modified due to storm damage and increased demand for cabanas. Glynn helped to start the effort to register the club, its farm and the nearby beach and cabanas around three years ago. She said she saw other historically designated buildings and clubs through-

out the county with similar stories, making the Old Field Club on West Meadow Road an obvious choice. “I looked around at various other clubs like [Old Field Club] in the area, like the St. George’s club and Nissequogue club, and they had both had fires that destroyed their buildings,” Glynn said. “It occurred to me that [Old Field Club] was a very special building.” Cartright, who represents the town’s historic 1st District, said the designation was not only appropriate, but also necessary for preserving the North Shore’s character. “The Old Field Club, farm and out buildings reflect the past of the Three Village area all the way back to the 1930s,” Cartright said in an email. “The club continues to serve as a location for community gatherings nearly a century later. It is a staple in our community.” Glynn, who has been a member since 1977, added, “the preservation of the beach and cabanas is especially important in light of the loss of the West Meadow cottages.” The cottages were also added to the register after they were destroyed in the early 2000s. Romaine said that members of the community felt the property should be a natural beach at the time. The cottages as well as the club were part of the Old Field South, a property subdivision that was being established at the time. “Having a beach, swimming, tennis

club to augment the sale was very much a part of the social life in the 1920s and 1930s,” Russell said. Members paid $50 per visit at the time to use the club and attend programs and events. Various events were open to all community members, including the North Shore ball. The ball, one of the most important social events at the time, was held at the Old Field Club. The club also organized a number of dances for teenagers, which attracted countless teens. The Old Field farm grounds were also

used for horse shows. The 13.2-acre parcel is divided into the main barn complex and the horse show grounds. A schoolhouse was also built on the property but was not included in the National Register of Historic Places alongside the clubhouse, farm and beach and cabanas because the building is privately owned. Although Long Island is bustling with historic sites like the club, Russell said sites must be at least 50 years old and must have a clear important historic significance, which Old Field certainly satisfied.

Community dreads dredging plan for the Sound By Giselle Barkley

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency got more than it bargained for at a North Shore library earlier this month when concerned residents showed up to oppose a plan that would allow dumping of dredge spoils into the Long Island Sound for the next 30 years. EPA officials had finalized the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers’ proposed open water dredging plan in January, and set the public hearing at the Port Jefferson Free Library to get input on possible rules and regulations for the plan, which calls for the Army Corps to dump upward of 50 million cubic yards of dredge material from Connecticut waterways into the Sound. The group has practiced this type of dumping for years, but has recently faced opposition from environmental advocates. About 60 community members attended the EPA’s hearing on the Long Island Sound Dredged Material Management Plan. “We’re not offering … specifics in the rulemaking because we’re not going to approve a plan that pollutes the Long Island Sound,” said Adrienne Esposito, executive director for the Citizens Campaign for the Environment. “We’ve been having public hearings for 10 years and all of the public input has been unanimously ignored.” The EPA has said it is open to finding

alternative ways to dispose of the spoils, and invited communities to partner with that agency and with the Army Corps to line up resources to explore those other methods and do the investigation. New York State demanded that the Army Corps reevaluate its disposal process in 2005, but Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D) has yet to make a public statement regarding the new dredging proposal. “The Long Island Sound should be protected from adverse activities, rather than have this activity go forward,” Assemblyman Steve Englebright (D-Setauket) said.

Englebright, the head of the state Assembly’s Committee on Environmental Conservation, said spoils could instead be used to replenish eroded beaches: “We’re going to need to defend our coastlines and we’re going to need a lot of sediment to do that.” Esposito had similar ideas at a press conference in February. She suggested the spoils could be used for wetlands and beach restoration, and for capping landfills. County Legislator Kara Hahn (DSetauket) was disappointed in the EPA’s support of the plan. “We’ve invested so

much [money] in improving the health of the Sound,” she said. “To have them make a decision that flies in the face of all that investment … is very discouraging.” In a previous interview, Stephen Perkins, a member of the EPA’s dredging team, said the agency tests the material before dumping it into the Sound. Highly toxic spoils are not dumped. But the Setauket Harbor Task Force’s George Hoffman said spoils jeopardize the water’s health. “It’s an estuary of significance, it’s an estuary that’s endangered,” Hahn said.

POLICE BLOTTER

Dispatchers help deliver baby on way to hospital A dispatcher in training for the Suffolk County Department of Fire, Rescue and Emergency Services helped deliver a baby over the phone on Wednesday morning. According to a press release from the FRES, a man who had been on the way to the hospital called 911 shortly before 10 a.m. to report that his wife was in labor but the baby’s delivery could not wait. He had pulled their vehicle to the side of Nesconset Highway in East Setauket, in front of Walmart. Dispatcher Joseph Pucci answered the call. FRES said he verified the couple’s location and that the woman was 36 weeks pregnant, about to deliver for the fourth time. He gave instructions to the 38-yearold woman’s husband, and the couple delivered a baby boy within three minutes. Pucci, who FRES said has been training for the past five months, in-

structed the father on how to check the baby’s breathing, keep the infant warm and use a shoelace to tie off his umbilical cord. Then he stayed on the line until Suffolk County police and Setauket Fire Department personnel arrived on the scene. According to FRES, both the mother and the baby seemed healthy and were transported to Stony Brook University Hospital. Suffolk County Executive Steve Bellone (D) commended the dispatcher-in-training for his work later on Wednesday. “Thanks to the knowledgeable response from emergency service dispatcher Joseph Pucci, a baby boy was delivered safely this morning,” he said. “Good training and clear thinking helped this couple and their baby just as it was needed. Congratulations to this family on their newest arrival.”

Head-on

A motorcyclist is in critical condition after an allegedly drunk driver crashed into him on Sunday afternoon. The 2003 Indian motorcycle was going east on North Country Road while a 2002 Subaru Outback was headed west on the same road, and the two collided near Mountain Ridge Drive in Mount Sinai, the Suffolk County Police Department said. The 60-year-old motorcyclist, who is from Mount Sinai, was in critical condition at Stony Brook University Hospital, police said. A 36-year-old Rocky Point resident, the driver of the Subaru, was arrested and charged with driving while intoxicated. The suspect was also treated for minor injuries at John T. Mather Memorial Hospital in Port Jefferson and was released, police said.

Crash into me

Police arrested a Huntington woman for driving while ability impaired on March 12. The 59-year-old woman was in a 2003 Chevrolet on Route 112 in Port Jefferson Station that night when she crashed into another car at Nesconset Highway.

HISTORY CLOSE AT HAND

Early Christian Avenue play looks back BY BEVERLY C. TYLER

“Seek out the spot where the Setalcott Indians first camped. They called it ‘land at the mouth of the creek.’ You’ll know when you come to it because you’ll be standing on Holy Ground. From there it’s an easy step to Christian Avenue.” — Glenda Dickerson The first lines of the play about the Christian Avenue community, produced in 1988 at the State University of New York at Stony Brook, took us back to a time before recorded history in Setauket, a time when Indian family groups occupied all of Long Island. These natives left no monuments to be remembered by, no changes that would permanently alter the landscape. As a result, we know very little about their lives. The archaeological remains discovered at the places where they worked, lived and died provide only scant clues. When the English settlers first came to the “land at the mouth of the creek,” they brought with them their knowledge of how to change the land to make it conform to their patterns of life. They dammed the stream and built a gristmill. They built permanent homes, erected walls and fences, cleared the trees and planted grains, and

they buried their dead with permanent stone markers. The early settlers also dealt in another kind of property; they bought and sold Black slaves. The first recorded notation of slavery in the three villages is listed in the Town records of 1674. “Richard Floyd, of Setakett, sold the ... Negro, named Antony, to John Hurd, of Stratford.” It is also recorded that Floyd had purchased Antony two years earlier from Robert Hudson of Rye. This story of the arrival of black slaves into the Setauket community was detailed in June of 1988 for theatergoers who took a bus tour to the Christian Avenue Community as part of an evening that culminated with the exhibit and play “Eel Catching in Setauket.” The bus tour took the “eel catchers” — theatergoers — to the Bethel A.M.E. Church on Christian Avenue, where they were given a short message about the church and the community and led in a song and a word of prayer. A tour of the Laurel Hill Cemetery was followed by a fellowship meal served by members of the Christian Avenue community in the Irving Hart Post American Legion Hall. The “eel catchers’” bus ride back to the

Fine Arts Center of the State University at Stony Brook included a tour of some of the locations in Setauket that are part of the oral history and folklore of the Christian Avenue community. Much of the oral history was preserved in the May 1988 Journal of the Three Village Historical Society, which was given to each “eel catcher.” In one oral-history interview, Violet Rebecca (Sells) Thompson brought the Christian Avenue community full circle to the first settlers on Long Island. “ ... I went to school in Setauket Union School up on the hill — Education Hill. There were a lot of nationalities. I think we were the only Indians in there ... we were the only Americans in the class. ... The rest of the kids were Irish ... Polish ... Lithuanians, all from Europe.” The play “Eel Catching in Setauket” was

in the Fine Arts Center. The exhibits and photographs of the Christian Avenue community were placed all through the theater room and the “eel catchers” wandered through the exhibit viewing the artifacts of the community residents. The play was a series of vignettes based on the collected materials, performed by eight actors and actresses under the direction of Glenda Dickerson. It took place in the center of the exhibit-theater and around the various exhibits while the “eel catchers” watched and listened to the drama unfold all around them. The Three Village Historical Society exhibit, “Eel Catching in Setauket” and “A Living Library-The African-American, Christian Avenue Community,” was displayed in Brookhaven Town Hall during the month of February.

Three Village Trust talk delves into 25A history East Setauket native to look into North Shore development By Phil CORSO

The North Shore’s economic well-being relies on the community coming together and having meaningful conversations, and the Three Village Community Trust is helping to do just that. The group announced it would be hosting its second talk in the “Join the Conversation” series on Thursday, March 24, at 7:30 p.m. at the Setauket Neighborhood House, with Robert Reuter discussing the last century’s commercial development along Route 25A. Reuter, an East Setauket native, has been involved with Three Village’s various historical and cultural organizations for years and currently is also president of the Frank Melville Memorial Foundation, a founder of the Three Village Community Trust, and a member of Brookhaven’s Historic District Advisory Committee. Reuter earned a bachelor of architecture degree from Virginia Tech and is known for his product design work for Knoll Furniture. “The Three Village area as we know it today began with communities located for their relationships to the water, both fresh and salt,” Reuter said. “These population centers grew to support their own

commercial areas and community centers primarily linked by North Country Road, the major route for east-west travel on Long Island’s North Shore. North Country Road became State Route 25A, and as our population grew and automobiles became ubiquitous, 25A provided the spine for commercial growth of our linear downtown.” This presentation will concentrate on the Setauket and East Setauket area, illustrating the changes in commercial activity along the North Country Road, Route 25A corridor over the last century. It will also include a segment with photographs and maps from the Three Village Historical Society archive. The Three Village Community Trust’s “Join the Conversation” series focuses on the quality of life and sustainability in the Three Village community. “What makes a great community also contributes to its sustainability: people who care and are engaged, great open spaces for nature and for people to enjoy, a vibrant local economy with good jobs, walkability, and a diversity of housing and transportation choices,” the group said in a statement. “Because the Town of Brookhaven is embarking on a land use study and plan for the NYS Route

Robert Reuter speaks at an event at the Setauket Post Office.

25A corridor — our own Main Street — most of the series will address issues that relate to community planning and to the corridor. We urge everyone to be a part of these conversations.”

All programs will be held at Setauket Neighborhood House. They are open to all and free — a donation of $5 would be welcome to cover expenses. Refreshments will be served.

Clockwise from left, Jameel Warney reaches for the rim against Vermont; the America East finals crowd shows its Stony Brook support; Warney races to teammate Carson Puriefoy in the final seconds of the game; Puriefoy drives around an opponent; head coach Steve Pikiell addresses the send-off crowd; county Legislator Kara Hahn cheers for the Seawolves; and the Stony Brook men’s basketball team walks out onto the red carpet before departing.

University of Kentucky that his No. 13 team will be taking on tonight at 9:40 p.m. “We’re going to represent this great university and this great area the right way on Thursday night when we play a small team out there in Kentucky,” he said, laughing. “I think they have a basketball program out there.” But on a more serious note, the coach said he appreciated all the support he’s received throughout the years, and how hard his team has worked to get to the position it’s in now. “So many good people have helped us get to this place,” he said. “This team did something that no team in Stony Brook history did. It’s hard to make history, and they got through every obstacle this year and I couldn’t be more proud of them.” According to Pikiell, there are 358 teams that start off the season wanting to be in the NCAA tournament, and just 64 get a chance to punch a ticket to the first round. “We did it,” Pikiell said. “We broke through.” The team filed out to a red carpet, high-fiving the fans that cheered as they swarmed around the 14-man roster as it boarded the bus to begin the long trip to Iowa. “They want to feel your energy in Des Moines, Iowa, so bring it on Thursday,” Stony Brook athletic director Shawn

Heilbron said. “This team is a special team and you’re going to see some special things on Thursday night.” The berth is the first for Stony Brook (26-6) in its Division I history. The Seawolves, known then as the Patriots, last made the NCAA tournament in 1991 as a member of Division III. Stony Brook and Kentucky faced each other in 2007, and the Wildcats held off the Seawolves, 62-52. The game tonight will be televised on CBS, and the winner will face Indiana University or The University of Tennessee Chattanooga in the second round.

OPINION Through the eyes of our readers ...

EDITORIAL

Seal feelS the heat: Jimmy Davis sent in this photo of a seal pup basking in the sunlight on the afternoon of Friday, March 11, on the rocks at Port Jefferson Harbor, near the Village Center.

Bipartisan abuse TO THE EDITOR: Recent events have proven, once again, that at least some of the people who claim to represent us have used and abused the authority vested in them for personal

gain rather than the interests of we, the people. As of this moment, the former top Republican in the state Senate, and the former top Democrat in the Assembly are behind bars, along with the highest ranking member of the Suffolk County Police Force.

Equal opportunity criminals. Perhaps along with requiring police officers to wear body cameras, we should get our politicians to wear them too. Maybe even our district attorney. Bruce Stasiuk Setauket

EDITORIAL

Towns need to be looking forward At the risk of sounding like a cliché, the future is, in fact, now. And it’s up to our North Shore towns to embrace that fact. Huntington Town unveiled a new initiative this week that makes it easier for residents to learn about and sign up for its programs with the click of a mouse, or the touch of a tablet. The spring brochure from the town’s parks and recreation department was released online as an interactive document, which allows residents to watch a video about a summer athletic program, directly ask the program head any questions they may have and then sign up to participate, all with a few clicks. This brochure is available on a desktop, tablet or mobile phone, and is not only keeping residents informed more easily, but also making the town money with new space for local advertisers. Once we heard about this project, it seemed almost hard to believe that this technology wasn’t being utilized across the

North Shore in other towns like Brookhaven or Smithtown. This move cuts costs, adds revenue and reduces the town’s environmental footprint by stopping mass production and printing of the paper brochures, Huntington officials said. This is a win-win for any town, and one that other towns should start mimicking as soon as possible. A town’s first duty is to serve the people as ef-

ficiently as possible. Municipalities should constantly be looking to update their systems and make their communication efforts as progressive as possible. We think North Shore towns should look to Huntington in this regard. There is still great room for improvement and the ideas are as close as a neighborhood away.

Residents of Huntington can now sign up for town park programs on their laptops, tablets and smartphones.

An ode to an odd election do they have what it takes? Can they bring us to glory and not become fakes? What do we need in this election year? Are they really the ones to calm our fear? Hillary and Bernie duke it out, they argue, fight and sometimes they pout.

D. None of the above by DaNiel DuNaief

he insults, the barbs, the teasing galore. The candidates fight every night, but what is it for? These men and this woman want our trust. At this point, many warrant disgust. Who are they who want a job like no other? Do they listen, or do they make us shudder? Are they good, are they smart,

On the right, Cruz, Kasich and formerly Rubio chase the man with the hair. Trump is his name, and they want their share. He’s a bully, a braggart and he’s way ahead. The others sound desperate and they seem to see red. Mitt Romney has come to throw sand in Trump’s face. Mitt’s presence is odd, some say it’s a disgrace. He lost but didn’t go gently into that good night, he’s worried about Trump and wants a fierce fight. We like to believe we are part of a whole, but we have huge differences

down to our souls. Some believe Muslims should all stay away, others suggest we should all have our say. Protesters appear to cause commotion, the sounds and sights are fraught with emotion. The wife of the president long ago, Hillary is under fire for making dough. A university fight nips at his heels, Trump says, “It’s OK, the school is real.” The debates offer jabs and tough one-liners, some of these leaders could be sporting shiners. Tough choices now, the voters have to take sides. With each new vote, there’s nowhere to hide. The country is vast, it’s hard not to offend. We’re different in New York from those in South Bend. Bernie Sanders shares plans that people adore.

He wants the working class to have so much more, but can he do half of what he desires? Or would he wind up putting out vast fires? The people crave change, it’s clear as a bell. The same old approach has no chance to sell. We’re sick and tired of being tired and sick. We the People don’t want something so slick. The rhetoric has grown increasingly coarse, it’s ugly, messy and the leaders sound hoarse. Who will you choose on Election Day? Do you really want anyone to stay? Will the candidates discuss issues that matter? Or will they just make their own pocketbooks fatter? On what do we agree, from sea to sea? What is there that’s common to you and to me?

Can you picture these people when they were kids? Do you think they were proud of all that they did? Were they good to friends, to teachers and foes? Or did they know better than average Joes? When one of them wins and wants to lead us together, will he or she make us stronger and help us get better? They fight with their rivals and say others are wrong, how can any of them help people get along? You have to vote, like it or not, it’s our duty, we’re in a big spot. Tune out the bluster and the attacks, and ask yourself if they have our backs. Who are they who want a job like no other? Do they listen, or do they make us shudder? Are they good, are they smart, do they have what it takes? Can they bring us to glory and not become fakes?

Thought-provoking pajama games for seniors

between you and me by leah S. DuNaief

news@tbrnewspapers.com

H

ere is a terrific idea for those of a certain age. Have a pajama party with close friends at a distant and beautiful location of at least three nights duration. Why three nights? Because it takes that long for normally reserved people to open up and speak freely about life as they have known it. Why pajamas? For

the same reason. After a day filled with enjoyable activities, like sightseeing, shopping and dining, climbing into pajamas and meeting in the living room to chat goes a long way toward facilitating informality and frank exchange. And why have such an experience? Because after a lot of years of living, seniors are expected to have amassed some wisdom with the answers to questions that habitually occur to us. One thing is sure: Probably no two people will have the same answers to all the questions, and hearing the different perspectives is thoughtprovoking and sometimes even comforting. Now let me be clear. I am not suggesting orgies in the basement. I am saying that much has changed over the period of our lives, and those of us who have seen those changes can understand each other and even commiserate. It’s nice to be understood. It’s valuable

to hear how others have dealt with the same opportunities and challenges. What are some of the subjects that might be discussed? Death is certainly one. We all face an end to our lives. How do we regard the inevitable? Are we afraid? Probably not so much. With age comes acceptance to a large degree. Is there an afterlife? A purgatory? Will we again be with our loved ones? In fact, do we believe there is a God? And what is the purpose of life? There are no bounds to the scope of discussions. The subjects just flow from each other. Then there are the endless conversations about children and maybe grandchildren. How have they fared? How much should we help them? What is in store for them? What problems do they have? Have their marriages held together? There are the huge and sometimes incomprehensible

changes in sexual mores and in family values. There are still some who reserve sex for marriage but not many. The word “dating” can have a different connotation than it did when we were much younger. Living together and having children without the benefit of marriage is no longer the object of shame. Yet it may be just difficult for older people to accept, especially if members of the family are involved in such arrangements. The relationship between men and women and hence between husbands and wives has undergone revolutionary change. And the issue of rape has become public, especially rape on campus. There was no such mention by past generations. Health issues are a perennial topic for conversation. Trading remedies, physician and physical therapist names, healthy tips for diets and dieting, exercise and stress reduction are LEISURE EDITOR Heidi Sutton SPORTS EDITOR Desirée Keegan ONLINE EDITOR Elana Glowatz ADVERTISING DIRECTOR Kathryn Mandracchia

common themes. Discussions of the outcomes from hip and knee surgeries and even dental implants fill the airwaves and can truly offer needed information and help. Music is another area of tremendous change. What one generation danced to, another can find boring. But there is unending admiration by seniors for the younger generation’s mastery of cellphones, laptops and the Internet. Yet there are some older folks who adamantly resist texting. The truth is that we all need support groups and affirmation. We can also benefit from well-placed critiques that can be more easily accepted from contemporaries. And there is always lots of room for laughter, even belly laughs. Pajama parties can provide the context for such engagement. Besides why should only kids have all the fun.
