Seven Locks goes yellow for kindergartner Bethesda school creates ‘ripples of kindness’ for boy with cancer

ROBERT RAND STAFF WRITER

One day last week, Seven Locks Elementary School went yellow. Staff and students all wore yellow for Yellow Day on March 31 at the Bethesda

school, to show their support for kindergartner Michael Mosier, whose favorite color is, yes, yellow. Michael was diagnosed on Sept. 4 with diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma, a rare and debilitating type of brain tumor found in the brainstem that accounts for about 15 percent of all brain tumors in children. It’s a particularly difﬁcult form of pediatric cancer to treat successfully. The disease and its treatments have

taken their toll on Michael, who needs to use a wheelchair and needs help with daily tasks. When the school notified Michael’s family that it planned the Yellow Day, “we thought it was a great idea,” said his mother, Jenny Mosier. “But we didn’t imagine how moving and incredible an experience it would be

Montgomery County did not act illegally by spending money to campaign for votes on a 2012 ballot question, the Maryland Court of Special Appeals has ruled. At issue in the case was $122,315 of public money, plus paid staff time, that the county spent. The money paid for everything from bus ads and bumper stickers to poll workers and consultants, urging a “yes” vote on Question B in the 2012 general election.

inaugural show that this year the town will close a stretch of Howard Avenue to accommodate it, organizers said. The show, presented by Lake Liberty, Kensington Service Center and Bruno’s Classic Muscle, will run from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. at 3794 Howard Ave.; the rain date is April 19. The show is also a fundraiser for the Noyes Children’s Library Foundation in Kensington.

Besides classic vehicles, it will feature food from The Broken Fork and Corned Beef King; live music by The Nighthawks and King Soul; and children’s activities such as balloons and face painting. Of course, a monster truck is also scheduled to be on hand. A rafﬂe of automotive prizes is planned, too. The show’s sponsors are all owned

Question B asked voters whether to uphold a 2011 county law that repealed a longstanding bargaining right for the police union. The law removed the right of the union, Fraternal Order of Police Lodge 35, to bargain the effects of management decisions — such as how and when the video captured by police car cameras is reviewed or how clothing allowances for plainclothes ofﬁcers are paid. Voters upheld the law. The union sued in November 2012, asking the circuit court to declare the county’s actions illegal. It called for County Executive Isiah Leggett and spokesman Patrick Laceﬁeld to repay

Moore and John Moore, both of Bethesda, and Lara Campbell and Rob Campbell, both of Kensington, ply their lexicographic skills during the fundraising Scrabble Scramble on March 29 at the Montgomery County Conference Center in North Bethesda. The tournament raised $45,000, up 68 percent from last year, for the Literacy Council of Montgomery County, according to the council’s Shelley Block. The winning team comprised Don Higgins and Kitty Higgins, both of Rockville, and Jennifer Backus and Ellen Shurman, both of Washington, D.C.

Montgomery County’s settlement with Pepco and Exelon in a proposed utility takeover does not do enough for the public, the County Council said last week. The council unanimously approved a resolution asking state regulators for more from the deal, arguing that County Executive Isiah Leggett’s agreement with the companies fell short. “Not that the deal the county executive struck is a bad

deal, but it was the wrong deal,” Councilman Roger Berliner said Monday. “For this settlement, this deal, to be in the public interest, we will need to see, oh, so much more than we have seen yet from Exelon and Pepco.” Exelon Corp. of Chicago, parent of Baltimore Gas and Electric, plans to acquire Pepco Holdings for $6.83 billion in cash. The sale would bring together Exelon’s three electric and gas utilities — BGE, ComEd and PECO — with Pepco Holdings’ three utilities, Atlantic City Electric, Delmarva Power and Pepco, cementing Exelon’s hold on the mid-Atlantic market. The Maryland Public Service Commission is considering whether to approve the pro-

She most recently ran her own business, Zanotti Nonproﬁt Solutions, helping clients with strategy, fundraising and management. She has also held development positions with West Virginia University Healthcare and Shepherd University in West Virginia, plus St. Joseph Mercy Oakland Hospital, Capuchin Ministries and Univer-

sity Liggett School in her native Michigan. Aware of the fiscal challenges the C&O Canal National Historical Park faces and the recent failed fee proposal, Zanotti said she thought the park service “made a compelling case for the increasing need for resources in the face of repeated budget cuts. I see the Trust as a means for mitigating this gap in funding through increased community support.”

TIPS FOR SYNCHRONIZED SALES Selling your home and buying a new one at the same time can be complicated. The best way to streamline the process and reduce stress is to prepare well in advance. Several months before you list your home, meet with your REALTOR® to talk about how long it should take to sell your home in today’s market and what home improvements, price points and incentives will help to shorten that timeline. Next meet with your lender to go over the details of both your sale and purchase plans. Your lender can help you calculate what you’ll get from your home sale, how much you can qualify for a new home, if you’ll need a down payment, and how this will impact your overall credit. Because the timing of closing between two different sales can be unpredictable you may wish to arrange for a post - settlement rent back. Having a housing backup plan and an extra cushion of cash will protect you from any schedule hiccups and make your transfer easier.

As the weather turns warmer and the summer road construction season swings into gear, officials are reminding drivers to watch out for construction crews as they travel. There were 442 traffic fatalities in Maryland in 2014, including nine in highway work zones, said Jim Ports, deputy secretary of operations for the Maryland Department of Transportation. The total is the fewest since 1948. There were 10 work-zone fatalities in 2013, up from three each in 2011 and 2012. Two highway workers were killed in Maryland in 2014, according to the State Highway Administration, but Ports warned that four out of every five work-zone fatalities are either drivers or their passengers. “So look out for the workers, and also look out for yourself,” he said. Gov. Larry Hogan (R) has named April as

Work Zone Safety Awareness Month. Ports spoke at an event Thursday at the intersection of Georgia Avenue and Randolph Road in Glenmont, along with Montgomery County Executive Isiah Leggett and other officials. After a difficult winter, people are understandably eager to get out and move around, but they must do so carefully, Leggett (D) said. County residents demand safety, but also the ability to get around with as little traffic as possible, he said. The construction site where the event was held is a $73.8 million project designed to reduce congestion and help traffic on Randolph Road move more freely through the intersection, according to the State Highway Administration. It involves lowering Randolph Road by nearly 25 feet to take traffic under Georgia Avenue, plus adding turn lanes and ramps. More than 87,500 drivers pass through the intersection each day, according to the highway agency. The project also will extend the Glenmont Greenway Trail to Mason Street to improve access to the Glenmont Metro station.

Transit center on schedule for spring release, ofﬁcial says Silver Spring project originally expected to be completed in 2010 n

KEVIN JAMES SHAY STAFF WRITER

Work on the long-delayed Silver Spring Transit Center is proceeding according to a schedule County Council members received during the last status report in January, an ofﬁcial said last week. “Our part of the work is on schedule to be completed in

late spring,” said David Dise, director of the Montgomery County Department of General Services. “I can’t get any more speciﬁc than that on the timeframe.” In January, the council approved some $21 million more for the project for work that includes installing more than 200 concrete beams and steel supports, raising its cost to an estimated $139 million. When workers broke ground on the center in 2008, ofﬁcials hoped to see it completed by 2010 at an estimated price tag of $93

million. But work continued into 2011, then stopped after structural defects were found. The county and contractor FoulgerPratt agreed in early 2014 on a plan to fix the problems. The center is designed to be a three-level transit hub connecting Metro rail lines, including the proposed Purple Line, MARC commuter trains, taxis and buses. It’s been hard for commuters and residents to track the work being done since much of it can’t be seen from the street level along Colesville Road and other nearby areas, Dise said. Workers have finished installing strut beams on the top level of the structure and doing midlevel work now, he said. The bitter cold weather in March affected work such as being able to pour concrete, but there still were parts they could do, such as erect scaffolding, Dise said. Once finished, the county will turn over the project to the Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority, which has 60 days to review it and determine whether it is ready to open. “We’ve been working closely with WMATA to let them know our progress,” Dise said. “We are trying to do everything we can to shorten the time frame.” County Executive Isiah

Pedestrians and cyclists move about the area near the Silver Spring Transit Center. County ofﬁcials say work on the long-delayed project has picked up following a slowdown from winter weather. Leggett (D) has said that contractors and consultants responsible for extra work and cost overruns will eventually be held responsible, even if it takes going to court. The project engineer and designer is New York City-based Parsons

Brinckerhoff, while Rockvillebased Foulger-Pratt is the general contractor. County Councilman Tom Hucker (D-Dist. 5) of Silver Spring said ofﬁcials have told him that the county has “a strong case” to be reimbursed.

He hasn’t heard about any new delays or costs. “We were told that when we approved the last increase [in January], that would be it,” Hucker said on Friday. kshay@gazette.net

InBrief Dodgeball tourney raises $15K for diabetes research

The 10th annual Dodging Diabetes Charity Dodgeball Tournament on March 22 raised about $15,000 for JDRF — formerly the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation — and the Joslin Diabetes Center. That brings the event’s 10-year fundraising total to about $130,000. The tournament was founded in 2005 by two Bethesda women: Anna Tiedeman Irwin, its president, and Elizabeth Kramer Dugan, its executive director. They both have brothers who have type 1 diabetes. The tournament drew 210 players, who played in 21 teams on six courts at the GetGood FieldHouse in Laurel, according to Tiedeman. There was one league for serious dodgeballers, and one for those just out for some fun. About 90 spectators also showed up, Tiedeman said. Corporate sponsors included Honest Tea and the Compost Crew of Bethesda; Adaptive Methods of Rockville; and Renard Photography of Clarksburg. More information about the group is at dodgingdiabetes.org.

Sterling was co-chairwoman of the school’s Pennies for Patients fundraiser for the nonprofit. She, Delaplaine and other student leaders launched Hire A Baron to raise money by encouraging students to offer their services and request that a donation be made to the nonprofit. The students shoveled snow, worked as baby sitters and did other jobs in their neighborhoods to raise more than $13,000 in February, according to a news release.

The criteria included premature death rates, rates of sexually transmitted disease and teen pregnancy, graduation rates, air pollution, availability of healthful food and exercise opportunities, and the number of preventable hospital stays. Uma Ahluwalia, director of the county’s Department of Health and Human Services, credited the county’s strict anti-smoking laws, mandatory restaurant menu labeling for calories and robust exercise programs. Second on the list was Howard County. Baltimore city ranked last due to poor health behaviors such as obesity, smoking and a high rate of sexually transmitted diseases, plus high rates of high school dropouts and teen pregnancy. — CAPITAL NEWS SERVICE

Ludlow named Takoma Park city manager Has worked for city more than two decades n

KEVIN JAMES SHAY STAFF WRITER

Suzanne Ludlow has held numerous positions since joining the city of Takoma Park in 1993, including assistant housing and community development director, deputy city manager and acting city manager. Now she can add another, as officials on Thursday named her city manager, effective April 1. She has been acting city manager since Brian Kenner left Jan. 31 to become Washington, D.C.’s deputy mayor for planning and economic development. The proposed 2016 budget, which was released

Monday, is the biggest issue for Ludlow, she wrote in an email. “Getting the next part of the process rolling on the Takoma Junction development and helping promote the sustainability efforts related to the Georgetown [University] Energy Prize” are other key matters, she wrote. Ludlow’s annual salary will be $172,000 and includes a 2 percent match of deferred compensation as part of a government retirement plan. There were 39 applicants from across the country, according to Craig Terrill, a spokesman for the city. In this search for a new city manager, Takoma Park used the same firm it used two years ago, significantly reducing the search time. The search that resulted in Kenner took about eight

months, during which time Ludlow also served as acting city manager. Mayor Bruce Williams cited Ludlow’s “deep and broad understanding” of Takoma Park. “She knows many of the players at all levels and hits the ground running,” he said in a statement. Ludlow earned a master’s degree in urban affairs and economic development from the University of WisconsinMilwaukee and a bachelor’s degree in urban studies from Oberlin College. She previously worked for the cities of Greensboro, N.C., and Rochester, N.Y. As deputy city manager, Ludlow oversaw the renovation of the City Council chambers into more of an auditorium style and worked on problems of tax duplication from the county, among other issues. In the mid-1990s, she worked with various parties on the transition of the county line that moved a signiﬁcant part of Takoma Park from Prince George’s County to Montgomery County.

Rent-a-Chick, a cheep way to celebrate new life n

Program lets families care for baby chicks BY

PEGGY MCEWAN STAFF WRITER

Rocklands Farm in Poolesville has a growing business that combines the best of both worlds for its patrons: having live baby chicks for the Easter season and the agreement to return them to the farm a week later. The Rent-a-Chick service at Rocklands Farm is in its third year. Renters get two baby chicks in a strong cardboard box, bedding and feed for one week and two small bowls — one for water, one for feed — for $25. Chicks are picked up the Saturday before Easter and returned the next. “We do this in conjunction with Easter,” Chris Ahn, who works on the farm said. “It’s a celebration of life and the joys of nurturing new life.” The tradition of renting chicks started out of need, said Greg Glenn who, with his wife, Anna, runs the farm. “We used to get phone calls a little after Easter from people who got chicks that grew into chickens,” he said. “They were looking for a farm to donate them.” The crux of the whole program is the importance of stewardship and a reverence for life, Glenn said. “Celebrating life is what we are all about,” he said. About 125 people signed up to rent chicks this year, each picking them up on Saturday and promising to bring them back a week later. The chicks are ﬂuffy and yellow, only 4 days old when they leave Rocklands. Glenn said the vast majority of the chicks are returned healthy. That could be from the “lesson” he gives the children before

they select their chicks. “You guys are going to learn about precious little animals and take care of them,” he told some attentive youngsters Saturday. Among his instructions, Glenn told the kids to ﬁnd a safe place for the chicks and check on them three times a day, keeping them warm using a lamp, feeding them and making sure they have water. “You are welcome to play with them as much as you want, but only for ﬁve or 10 minutes, then let them rest,” he said. Molly Smith of Poolesville was renting chicks for the second year. She and her sons, Evan, 11, and 5-year-old twins Asher and Branden had chicks for a week last year. This year, they were taking four home. “They are just so cute,” Evan said. “And it’s fun to pet them.” Last year, the Smiths named their chicks Fluffy and Peter Rabbit. This year, Fluffy was on the list again, but that was the only name decided upon. “It’s so much fun,” Smith said. “It’s the best because you don’t have to have a chicken.” Smith said the chicks really grew in the week they had them last year, almost doubling in size. The idea of having a pet and returning it was appealing to a number of the people picking up chicks this week. “We don’t have any pets, this is a fun way for [the kids] to have a pet for a week,” Rachel Fix of Bowie said. Pam Smith and son Jackson, 10, of Kensington were renting chicks for fun and education. “It’s great for the kids to learn about food and where it comes from,” Smith said. Jackson had another goal. “I’m looking forward to playing with them,” he said. pmcewan@gazette.net

‘It can take 70 years’ to get a green card

Immigration advocates: Some highly skilled workers must wait a decade n

PEGGY MCEWAN STAFF WRITER

Often discussed, immigration reform will most likely be a long time coming. But several county residents are taking matters into their own hands, lobbying Congress to act now to speed up the waiting time for green cards. Shyam Sriram of Germantown is one of them. He is vice president of the Maryland Chapter of Immigration Voice, a grass roots organization. “It’s not ridiculous — it’s outrageous,” Sriram said. “The way the laws are written it can take 70 years to [get a green card].” A green card lets an immigrant become eligible for permanent resident status and work in the U.S. It is also a ﬁrst step toward becoming a U.S. citizen. It allows holders to open new businesses, change jobs, ask for a raise, travel to their home countries and return to the U.S. and be assured that they will not have to leave the country if they lose their jobs. With an H-1B visa for highly skilled workers, which most Immigration Voice members have, according to Sriram, those simple

acts are difﬁcult if not impossible. Sriram, 35, came to the U.S. from India to attend graduate school at the University of Texas. With a master’s in electrical engineering and an H-1B visa, he works in the transportation business. He has to stay with the same employer, in the same job, he said. His employer is his green card sponsor and any change in his employment means he must reapply for a green card with the new employer as his sponsor and that would bump him to the end of the line. He has had his application for a green card in for six years, he said, and thinks it will take 10 more years. “It’s a complex issue,” Sriram said. “We want [Congress] to understand the immigration system should be fair to immigrants as well as Americans. “The problem right now is bigger companies are taking advantage of the system by hiring people and keeping them in the same position,” he said. “The unintended consequence is it hurts Americans as well. The way the law is written employers hire immigrants and keep them.” Shruthi Mukund of Bethesda is also from India. She has been in the U.S. since 2001 and applied for a green card in 2005. “I’m still waiting,” she said.

Both she and Sriram said one of the hardest parts of waiting is staying in the same job. “When we apply for a green card we apply [through] a specified job, with a specified company, at a specified location, a specified title and a specified salary,” Mukund said. “When you ask for a raise or a promotion your place in the green card ‘line’ changes, the process restarts.” A lot of people across the county are stuck in this position, Mukund said, in the same job for life or, if you lose your job, you must leave the country. She estimates that more than a million highly skilled immigrants are stuck in the green card backlog. The U.S. issues 140,000 green cards per year for employmentbased categories such as those with H-1B visas. But no one country’s workers can get more than 7 percent of available green cards, according to a Department of Homeland Security website. “These quotas ... are congressionally mandated,” said Christopher Bentley, an agency spokesman. “The wait time can be up to 15 years.” Bentley said he has never heard of a 70-year wait as described by Sriram. He did say wait times can be estimated by looking at the State Department Visa Bulletin online.

According to the April bulletin, workers from India who are in the employment-based preferences, where most members of Immigration Voice fall, can see they have a long wait. Permanent visas are available for those “...Members of the Professions Holding Advanced Degrees or Persons of Exceptional Ability...” who applied before Sept. 1, 2007. “...Skilled Workers, Professionals, and Other Workers...” have a longer wait: They need to have applied before Jan. 8, 2004, to get their permanent visas this month. Mukund is in that category, as she does not hold an advanced degree. “What gets lost is the story of more than a million law-abiding, tax-paying, highly skilled immigrants that are stuck in green card backlogs with less rights,” said Vikram Desai, communications director for Immigration Voice. Immigration Voice is petitioning Congress to ﬁx the system. “We spend our own money to advocate for the change we are seeking. People take time out of their personal lives and spend their own money to travel to Washington, D.C., to ask for change as constituents of the various districts,” Desai wrote in an email. pmcewan@gazette.net

Police say killer tried to bribe Annual Family Fun Festival victim’s daughter not to testify highlights alumni weekend Father was shot dead in Silver Spring 13 years ago

DAN MORSE

THE WASHINGTON POST

What Clement Reynolds did in 2002 was horriﬁc: shooting a man dead outside a Silver Spring apartment in front of the man’s screaming 11-yeardaughter. What he did 12 years later after ﬁnally being arrested — at least to hear prosecutors tell it — is beyond the pale: offering $100,000 to the daughter not to testify. “He is a heartless person,” said the daughter, Nickesha King. “In my mind, he is an evil person.” Already convicted of murder, Reynolds now faces charges of witness intimidation and obstruction of justice. Authorities allege that a friend of Reynolds visited King’s uncle in Jamaica, where he told the un-

cle that he and Reynolds were willing to pay cash to King. The friend also said that “they know where Nickesha King resides, where she gets her hair done, and her husband’s name.” Reynolds is due in court this month for the next hearing in the case. As for the 2002 murder, Reynolds, 39, was tried this year. Prosecutors called King to the stand, and she proved to be a powerful witness. She remembered clearly the murder of her father, Wesley King, and told jurors she heard him call out the name “Clement.” She broke down over the memories, at one point standing up and ducking behind a door in the back of the courtroom to cry out of sight. “My heart went out to her,” a juror said afterward. Other testimony established that Reynolds and Wesley King had been in the marijuana business together, and a dispute likely arose from their arrangement. After

Reynolds killed Wesley King, he slipped up to New York, assumed the identity of “Dennis Alfredo Graham,” got fake passports and helped build a successful music promotion company. He traveled freely to Jamaica before he was captured in 2014 at New York’s John F. Kennedy International Airport. The murder case concluded last month, when Reynolds was sentenced to life in prison. Under Maryland rules, he will become eligible for parole in an estimated 22 years. Because of the nature of the crime, though, the governor would have to sign off on any parole release. Prosecutors would like to tack on additional prison time with their witness tampering case. They also have indicted a friend of Reynolds, Marlon Collins of Los Angeles, saying that he traveled to Jamaica to issue offers and threats to Nickesha King through her uncle, a colorful character named Patrick Henry. Collins’ and Reynolds’ version of the events are not known. Doug Wood, an attorney for Collins, and Theresa Chernosky, an attorney for Reynolds, declined to comment. Prior to Reynolds’ sentencing, King wrote a letter to Circuit Judge Joseph Dugan. It was read aloud in court by a sister. “The nature of the killing of my father has left scars that are not heal-able,” King wrote. “Picture yourself being a preteen, watching your father gasp for his last breath as he chokes on his own blood.” Dugan was clearly moved that King had watched her father die. “How could you do that? How could you do that?” he asked Reynolds. “What a callous, cowardly act to gun somebody down in front of a little girl.”

She got the idea to start an online marketplace unlike any she has seen, in which owners of collectibles tell the story of how they came to own the pieces and their signiﬁcance. “People who travel always have great stories,” Lee said. “I want this site to be more than just an online marketplace.” Lee — who has worked in Africa for the U.S. Agency for International Development as a communications consultant/ manager and development outreach and communications ofﬁcer — started Artifacts Without Borders in January. The website, built through e-commerce com-

pany Volusion, allows Lee to sell her own goods. Other people can sell through the site by consignment, as well. The items don’t have to be antique or one-of-a-kind, she said. “They just have to have a special connection to travel,” Lee said. A pair of Kosta Boda glass candle holders for sale for $10 was purchased around Sept. 11, 2001, when Lee and her late husband were in Scandinavia. A clerk in a store in Norway informed them of the terrorist attacks. They checked on family and friends at an Internet café. The next day, they went to a candlelight church service in Stockholm, Sweden. Although the service was not in English, Lee understood everything, especially the candlelight ritual performed by congregants and visitors. They seemed to be the only Americans there, and the horror of what had happened in the U.S. hit them. “We knew we wanted to have some candle holders like those,” Lee said. She bought the holders the next day in a local store. Other items include a handpainted ceramic tile piece Lee bought in West Jerusalem and some ceramic bowls she purchased in the West Bank during a 2011 trip with Interfaith PeaceBuilders. The group sends delegations to Israel and Palestine to view the conflict firsthand and spend time in both Palestinian and Israeli homes. The Israeli and Palestinian artifacts are similar in their craft and appearance, yet the people are far apart, Lee said. “These are the only artifacts I have ever owned that filled me with despair,” she wrote on the website. Others are consigning on the site, including a print by artist Jude Maceren that recently sold. During a trip to Costa Rica, the consignor was drawn to the piece’s vibrant colors, bold style and her love of hummingbirds, according to the website. Lee — who also has worked for the World Bank and as legislative director for state Del. Aruna Miller (D-Dist. 15) of Darnestown — said she is working on the marketing aspect, including the use of social media. “I’d like to see friendships built and people learn about other cultures in this way,” she said. kshay@gazette.net

Language program ‘an underground success story’ n

Kemp Mill Elementary students learn in Spanish, English

LINDSAY A. POWERS STAFF WRITER

At Kemp Mill Elementary School in Silver Spring, a group of kindergartners recently watched a fellow student lift a small weight with one hand and a heavier weight with the other. Speaking animatedly, their two teachers delivered a lesson with a bilingual twist. In fluid Spanish, teacher Lindsay Walberg explained that using the larger weight better builds muscles — “mas musculo” — just as taking on challenging tasks helps a person’s brain develop. Principal Floyd Starnes provided a summary of the lesson in English for a reporter afterward. During the breaks of Walberg’s instruction, teacher Nakeya Stephens-Chukwudebe added comments in English for the young class. The students are among more than 300 from kindergarten through fifth grade taught in Spanish and English — usually in separate sessions — in Kemp Mill’s dual language program. It’s the only program of its kind in the county. “I think it is an underground success story,” Starnes said. “I don’t think many people know about it.” The dual-language program, started by a small group of staff in 2001, involves classes of students whose first language is Spanish and others whose first language is English. Children who live in the school’s boundary area can enter a lottery to join. “The central goal is really that your second-language learners, your Spanish-speaking students end up with stronger English skills than they would have had had they been

He is part of the dual-language program at Kemp Mill Elementary School in Silver Spring. instructed in English the whole time,” Starnes said. Most of the program’s students spend half of their day learning in English with one teacher, then switch over to Spanish instruction with a second teacher. Kindergarten involves more movement between languages during a class day. The school’s current enrollment is 71 percent Latino. More than 50 percent of students are English language learners. For Spanish-speaking students who start the program and don’t understand English, Starnes said, Spanish instruction lets them learn vocabulary and concepts they wouldn’t be able to grasp yet in English and wouldn’t be exposed to at home. They can “continue their academic progress,” he said. For the English-speaking students, he said, the goal is to

help them become “bilingual, biliterate, bicultural.” For 10-year-old Reina Cabrera, the program lets her continue speaking Spanish, the language she uses to talk to her parents. “You’ll keep learning it, but you’ll also keep learning your English at the same time, and then when you grow up, you can use both of them,” she said. Xavier Allen, 9, said he can understand more Spanish than he did as a second-grader, when he joined the program. In his fourth-grade class, he said, one teacher sometimes speaks entirely in Spanish. Spanish is useful for him, he said, “because I could go to different places, and I could learn another language using Spanish.” Starnes said there’s an effort to develop a way for Kemp Mill students to continue a language

study in some form at Lee Middle School in Silver Spring, such as in a dual-language program or an immersion-type program. Kemp Mill’s program differs from the district’s other language programs, said Françoise Vandenplas, supervisor of the county school system’s World Languages Program. In the county’s English for Speakers of Other Languages program, she said, educators aim to help students become proﬁcient in academic English. Students in immersion programs learn a new “target language” and are taught either partially or fully in Spanish, French or Chinese. Starnes said the county’s only dual-language program includes “complications” and beneﬁts. For one thing, he said, the program staff has “a demanding job.” Walberg, who teaches 32 kindergartners split in two groups, said the job requires her to sometimes translate or replace classroom materials in English. She also teaches with a focus on both content- and language-learning goals for her students. “There’s kind of some additional layers to think about as you’re planning and delivering instruction,” said Walberg, who has a son in the program and another who graduated from it. In her class, students show stronger independent reading levels in their dominant language, she said, “but the lag isn’t too, too great for the second language.” “I’ve really seen the positive effects for my family, my children and also my students,” she said. lpowers@gazette.net

A six-person jury recently awarded $830,000 to a former Lockheed Martin business development manager who sued the Bethesda company for retaliation after he claimed he had been discriminated against. Vincent Balderrama, 58, worked in the company’s Crystal City, Va., ofﬁce before being laid off in November 2013 with 600 other employees. Now an Annapolis resident who works at the Naval Academy, Balderrama sued Lockheed in May based on Montgomery County law. Lockheed has asked Judge Ronald Rubin for a new trial. “At Lockheed Martin, ethics and integrity have always been, and continue to be, core principles, and we do not tolerate retaliation in any form,” the companysaidinastatementFriday. “Lockheed Martin believes the plaintiff’s allegations of retaliation are inaccurate, and we will seek to overturn the verdict.” A 1978 graduate of the Naval Academy, Balderrama — a second-generation Mexican-American who grew up in California — is a former Marine Corps helicopter pilot, having served 28 years in the corps and Reserves. He joined Lockheed in 2004, marketing its naval helicopter, according to his complaint. Balderrama moved to Maryland in 2007 and in 2010 was assigned a new supervisor, who began criticizing his work while not criticizing a non-Hispanic employee who had not performed as well as he had, according to his suit. In February 2013, the supervisor gave Balderrama a negative performance review for the previous year.

Balderrama, who said he had never received a bad evaluation, wrote a 16-page rebuttal to his human resources representative, who “conducted a cursory investigation of the matter,” according to his suit. He also appealed to a human resources supervisor. His supervisor continued to scrutinize his work, setting unrealistic goals and deadlines for him, he claimed. In November 2013, Balderrama was told he would be laid off as part as part of a company reduction in force. Balderrama said he decided to sue because he believed it was the right thing to do. “[I was] going to ﬁght for what was right,” he said. “I trusted in the jury system. [I have] lots of friends who gave their lives for freedom.” The termination, he said, has taken its toll in terms of time, money and prospects. “It had an economic impact, and my reputation was sullied to some degree,” said Balderrama, who didn’t work for ﬁve months before starting his job at the Naval Academy. He now works as a major gifts fundraiser at the academy but at $100,000 a year, down from the $170,000 he made at Lockheed, he said. The $830,000 award was based partly on what he would have earned to age 65 had he stayed at Lockheed, said his attorney, Adam Carter of the Employment Law Group of Washington, D.C. Still, Balderrama said he is glad his job lets him give something back to the academy. Balderrama said Lockheed has good personnel policies but they weren’t followed in his case by human resources personnel. “It’s all about people,” he said. “I wish them no ill will ... but [the company] needs to walk the talk.” vterhune@gazette.net

U.S. Sen. Benjamin L. Cardin visited Montgomery College’s Germantown campus on Thursday to discuss President Barack Obama’s plan to make two-year community college education free. “All Americans deserve a fair shot at success — particularly our students who are trying to create a better future for themselves,” Cardin said in a news release. With that thought in mind and the president’s America’s College Promise proposal, Cardin sat down with students and administrators to see what they thought of the plan. The students shared their own circumstances, giving Cardin (D) of Pikesville a glimpse into the many ways they could beneﬁt from tuition help. On the other hand, free tuition, although it sounded good, had many of the students about how it would work. Students expressed concerns about who would be eligible. Obama said in his speech introducing the idea of America’s College Promise that it “... will make two years of community college free to responsible students who are willing to work for it.” Who, the students asked, would be considered a responsible student? Cardin said he wondered that too. “I’m not sure I want to write off a ‘bad student.’ A lot of youngsters need help along the way,” he said. Matthew Phillips, who graduated from Montgomery College in 2011, was concerned about how students would qualify for free tuition. When he started college, he could afford full tuition but his mother’s death changed his circumstances and he could no longer afford tuition and living on his own.

“We need to make sure loans are available to people in changing circumstances,” he said. Cardin heard from students from all three Montgomery College campuses and encouraged them to continue their education. After the formal discussion, many students stayed to share their opinions with each other. Theresa Pasag of Silver Spring is a first-year student at the Rockville campus. She is a secondgeneration immigrant from the Philippines and said she participated in the discussion because she wanted to learn more about free tuition. “I know it won’t help me,” she said. “But I have a lot of cousins and it would be a good opportunity to help other first- or second-generation immigrants.” Absolutely on board with free tuition was Edward Song of North Potomac. He is in his first semester at the Rockville campus. “Free tuition should happen,” he said. But he does have a concern: “Where would the government get funding?” Funding specific to Montgomery College came up earlier during the discussion with Cardin, who said the college is funded by the state and county. The president’s plan is different, he pointed out. Obama’s recommendation is a sea change, with the federal government paying the cost, he said. Brad Stewart, vice president and provost of the Takoma Park campus, said he thinks Obama’s proposal is a game changer. “I heard and understand my students’ concerns about standards and [students who might] take advantage because it is free, but there are so many students on our campus who are working two or three jobs and taking care of parents or children. Free tuition that helps students work two jobs instead of three and put that time into studying ... that would be good,” Stewart said. pmcewan@gazette.net

Two Olney-area high school students have been charged as adults in a vicious gang-related beating of a 15-year-old boy outside an Olney restaurant, according to court documents filed Monday and last week. The victim in the March 27 attack, which was caught on video, suffered cheekbone fractures, was knocked unconscious and was left with a severe concussion. “He’s doing better. He’s out of the hospital,” his father, a physician, said Monday, adding that it was unclear whether his son would suffer long-term effects from the concussion. “Who knows? We’re just crossing our fingers he gets better quickly.” The suspects attended Sherwood High School in Sandy Spring and belonged to a group of teenagers who call themselves the Freaky Too Gang, authorities said. One of the boys outranked the other in the gang, and encouraged him to attack the victim, according to court records. Several days later, inside Sherwood’s cafeteria, both teens allegedly approached another student who had recorded the beating, cornered him and allegedly told him not say anything. “Watch your mouth, watch yourself,” one of the suspects said, adding, “You want me to clock you right now in the hallway? I’ll get security and watch me body-bag you.” The documents identify the suspects as Christion Moody, 17, and Thomas D. Kozlowski, 16. Both have been charged with counts related to first-degree assault, witness intimida-

tion and telephone misuse. The court records do not say whether either teen is represented by an attorney. Neither the suspects nor their parents could be immediately reached for comment. It is unclear whether the students still attend Sherwood. It wasn’t clear how many teens are part of Freaky Too. Capt. Paul Starks, a police spokesman, said investigators do not think the group is engaged in other criminal activity. Still, on the night of March 27, he said, at least some of the boys appear to have come together for the purpose of assaulting another teenager. “Just because they may not be a bona ﬁde gang doesn’t detract from the seriousness of the assault and later intimidation,” Starks said. According to court records, events preceding the assault outside Panera Bread date back about a month, when Moody began sending pictures online to the victim’s 14-year-old girlfriend. The victim, who attends Our Lady of Good Counsel High School in Olney, told Moody to stop, according to police and the victim’s father. Moody and Kozlowski then called the victim three times, police allege, and told him to quit disrespecting them. “I’m coming after you,” Moody said, according to arrest records. “Keep your eyes open. You’re not safe.” “Better keep your head up,” Kozlowski added, according to the arrest records. Although he is identified in court papers, the injured student is not being named by The Washington Post because he is a juvenile and because he appears to be the victim of a violent crime. His father spoke on the condition that he not be named. On March 27, the victim was at Panera near Md. 108 and

Md. 97 when he noticed friends of Moody’s and Kozlowski’s inside. He tried to leave the area, but eventually was confronted by 15 to 20 people, including Moody, according to police. The victim “had his hands in his pocket and did not want to fight,” detectives wrote. “Kozlowski then came from the side of [the victim] and struck him in the face. [The victim] did not see Kozlowski before he hit him. This caused [the victim] to lose consciousness and fall to the ground. Kozlowski continued to strike [the victim] multiple times in the face and head.” The victim’s father said that after the assault, his son spent the night at a friend’s house and went to a hospital the next day. Detectives charged Kozlowski as an adult. He was booked into jail and released on a $25,000 bond, according to court records. Records indicate that he must abide by a curfew. Moody told police that Kozlowski was a subordinate in Freaky Too, according to court papers. Detectives allege that Moody “arranged for the group to surround [the victim] and told them to turn on their flashlights so that the assault could occur,” according to court records. Police originally charged Moody as a juvenile and released him to the custody of his mother. Police then arrested him on Saturday, according to court records, this time charging him as an adult. Moody posted a $10,000 bond and was released, according to the records and a jail official. Another parent whose son witnessed the assault said she fears for his safety. She said many students have seen a video of the incident. “The psychology of it has affected these students,” she said. Jennifer Jenkins contributed to this report.

Cava Mezze Grill raises $16M for L.A. expansion Cava Mezze Grill of Rockville, a chain of fast-casual Greek restaurants, has secured $16 million in venture capital to help fund an expansion to Los Angeles, the company announced Wednesday. The company has raised a total of $21.65 million in venture capital since 2010. The latest round of Series C funding will also help Cava expand its line of dips and spreads to Whole Foods Market stores in the Midwest. “We looked at everything — cities on the East Coast, in the heartland, on the West Coast,” said CEO Brett Schulmann. “In the end, we decided on L.A. because it’s a great market with a health-conscious population.” The company has signed deals to open two Cava Grill restaurants in the Los Angeles neighborhoods of Westwood Village and Woodland Hills. Each new location costs between $500,000 and $800,000 to open, Schulman said. Ted Xenohristos, one of the company’s three founders, will be moving to Los Angeles to oversee the company’s West Coast operations. Cava Grill, the fast-casual spin-off of the full-service Cava Mezze, has grown to annual revenues of $30 million, with 300 employees and a number of packaged dips that are sold at grocery stores along the East Coast. Xenohristos and childhood friends Grigoropoulos and Dimitri Moshovitis openedtheir ﬁrst Cava

restaurant in Rockville in 2006. The company now has 11 Cava Grill locations in the Washington area, including one at Reagan National Airport, and three full-service restaurants.

would not go to trial, which was scheduled for Monday of this week. Korionoff wrote that part of the prosecutor’s responsibility is to “make sure we do not re-traumatize victims or out/shame little girls who are very hesitant to come forward in such cases.” “Protecting them while holding Mr. Pineda accountable is part of why a plea agreement is made,” he wrote. Police arrested Pineda in October and charged him with four counts of sex abuse of a minor and six counts of sexual offense third degree, according to online court records. The case involves accusations by four girls that Pineda touched them inappropriately in the classroom. One incident occurred in 2004 at Forest Oak Middle School in Gaithersburg, and the other three in 2013 and 2014 — two at Ridgeview Middle School in Gaithersburg and one at Clemente Middle School in Germantown in September, after which Pineda was arrested.

PEPCO

Continued from Page A-1 posed takeover. Regulators have until May 8 to rule. Together with Prince George’s County, Montgomery and other parties reached the settlement with Pepco and Exelon in the acquisition, securing beneﬁts such as a promise to be among the nation’s most reliable utilities by 2018. The settlement is subject to approval by the PSC. The Prince George’s County Council passed a resolution Tuesday supporting the settlement and the acquisition. Montgomery lawmakers said the settlement has some beneﬁts, but does not adequately address the overarching concerns of opponents and remains contrary to public interest. In Maryland, Exelon and Pepco must prove that the deal is in the public interest. “The settlement agreement Exelon and Pepco Holdings reached with Montgomery and Prince George’s counties includes provi-

sions to ensure that the merger not only meets but exceeds the standard of being in the public interest,” Pepco spokeswoman Courtney Nogas wrote in a statement. The commitments made as part of the deal are expected to result in as much as $855 million in economic benefit to Maryland, as well as 3,314 to 9,089 to jobs, Nogas wrote. But Berliner said the settlement also should require Pepco to be among the top utilities for renewable energy. Council members urged the PSC to, at a minimum, insist on “very strong, verifiable and financially accountable” commitments by Exelon and Pepco to keep ratepayer costs down and to becoming a national leader in renewable energy. In the absence of Exelon putting more into the deal, Berliner (DDist. 1) of Bethesda said he expects the PSC to reject the merger. But if the deal is rejected, Leggett (D) said, the region will be left with Pepco “where we are now.” “I don’t find that acceptable,” Leggett said. “If that is the outcome, how does that serve the public in-

Continued from Page A-1 taxpayers for the campaign and reimburse the union for court costs. In March 2014, Montgomery County Circuit Court Judge Ronald B. Rubin ruled that Montgomery County did illegally spend taxpayer money to campaign for votes on the ballot question, but he did not order repayment of the funds. Both parties appealed the decision. On Friday, the Court of Special Appeals reversed Rubin’s ruling. “We hold that the County acted within its powers and not illegally by spending County funds to campaign in favor of the particular ballot issue; and that Leggett and Laceﬁeld

terest?” Leggett said he supports a stronger renewable energy commitment from the companies, but argued that what parties have secured is far better than the takeover being rejected and Pepco remaining as it is. For years, Pepco was among the least reliable utilities in the nation. In Maryland, reliability has improved, but Pepco remains in the bottom half of utilities for providing reliable electricity. As part of the takeover, it has committed to by 2018 be among the most reliable utilities in the nation. Leggett said he and the council look at the settlement from different perspectives. “If we end up with [the current] Pepco, that is not OK for me,” he said. “I don’t think Pepco has the resources, the capacity or all that is necessary to get to the level we want. I think they need some help and support to do that.” Staff Writer Jamie AnfensonComeau contributed to this report. kalexander@gazette.net

did not violate any laws,” Special Appeals Court Judge Deborah S. Eyler wrote in the opinion. “Accordingly, we shall reverse the judgment of the circuit court.” The police union could petition Maryland’s Court of Appeals to consider the case. The Court of Special Appeals has up to 30 days to issue a mandate. Then, the police union would have 15 days to ask the state’s top court to take the case, said County Attorney Marc P. Hansen. That court could decline it. Hansen said the county is happy with the current decision and has no plans to ask the Court of Appeals to consider it. “We are currently reviewing the decision and considering options,”

Jane Milne, secretary of the local police union, wrote in an email on Monday. Leggett (D) said continuing to ﬁght over Question B, at this point, is “basically ﬁghting over an issue that is fairly moot at this point in time.” He also said the county’s action on the ballot question is not likely to be repeated because Question B and the county’s position in defending its law were unique. “These are the only kinds of cases for which the county, in my opinion, would be involved in,” he said. kalexander@gazette.net

YELLOW

Continued from Page A-1 that day,” she said. “They had many special touches, and nearly everyone was in yellow. Having them in the hallways cheering for Michael was really special and meant a lot to him.” The day was the brainchild of a group of school staff, including teacher aides Leigh Ross and Sue Segars; school counselor Laurie Steinberg; Michael’s kindergarten teacher, Karen Tsarev; and Principal Carl Bencal. “Once Michael’s family went public on Facebook, his teacher and I decided it was important to come together as a school, to rally behind him and show our love and support,” Steinberg said. “It was right after he had ﬁnished a round of chemo and right before spring break, so it was a perfect time for Yellow Day.” The school has been supportive all year, Mosier said. “We’ve been working hand-in-hand with the school since Michael’s diagnosis to ensure he can go to school and be in the classroom with his peers as much as possible,” she said. “Seven Locks has done everything it can to embrace Michael and make him comfortable.” Like for most children, school is central part of Michael’s life and being there gives him an opportunity to interact with friends and “get away from a lot of the doctors appointments and treatments he has to confront on a daily basis,” Mosier said. And the yellow? “Yellow has always been his favorite color, since he was infant,” she said. While Michael’s illness has certainly been difﬁcult for her and her family, it’s also revealed a lot about him. “We’re all sort of inspired by Michael, how brave he has been, his determination,” Mosier said. “He has had to adapt to changes that he’s confronted with more courage than I think most adults could muster. We’re extremely proud of him.”

Symptoms of the type of cancer Michael has can include difﬁculty controlling eye movement and facial expressions, plus difﬁculty chewing, swallowing, speaking and walking. There are about 100 to 150 new diagnoses annually in the U.S. and fewer than 10 percent of children with this cancer survive two years after their diagnosis, according to the DIPG Registry.

‘Smart, kind, brave, strong, funny’ Steinberg, along with Ross, Segars and others, created a presentation before Yellow Day to help other students learn about Michael and understand his struggles and why he looks the way he does. “A lot of students didn’t know what he was going through, why he was in a wheelchair,” Steinberg said. The presentation starts with an introduction: “Michael is a smart, kind, brave, strong, funny, determined and curious 6-year-old. He is a loving big brother to his 3-year-old sister, Lila, and he has two amazing, superhero parents,” adding that he has “soared beyond his grade level” in his school work. It goes on to explain Michael’s sickness, saying the “extra cells” he has growing in his brain are sometimes called a tumor or cancer. It also discusses his radiation and chemotherapy treatments and how they affect him: “Doctors are working hard to ‘zap’ away these ‘extra’ cells. Michael gets medicine and treatments in the hospital to destroy these harmful cells. The medicine makes him feel worse at ﬁrst, but hopefully it will ‘knock out’ these ‘invading’ cells. He often feels sick and very tired from these treatments.” The school also is helping the students understand his appearance: “When you see Michael you may notice that ... [h]e wears special glasses to help him see better. He uses a wheelchair because he has trouble walking. He has trou-

ble moving muscles on his left side, but he can still wave and raise his hand on the right side. He is swollen from all of the medicine he takes. He has trouble speaking sometimes, but he can still communicate with us through words, pictures and pointing,” the presentation reads. The presentation lets students know to help him feel comfortable: “So if you see him in the hallway spread kindness by saying ‘Hi Michael!’ It may be hard to tell, but it means a lot to him and brings him happiness. ... Even though Michael’s body is not working as well as he would like, his mind is working perfectly, and he can understand everything going on around him.” “The students have been remarkable,” Steinberg said. “They give him hugs and say the class feels complete when Michael is there. “I’ve spent a lot of the year talking about kindness,” she said. “It’s part of the curriculum this year. It’s important to create ripples of kindness throughout the school.” Michael’s classmates have been “amazingly resilient,” Tsarev said. “You have the adult reaction, but you always wonder what’s gong on through their eyes,” she said. “They seem to really embrace Michael and have that empathy. It’s so amazing.” Michael has a Facebook page, at tinyurl.com/qhfgabn, that chronicles his daily life, with messages from supporters, photos and videos. There’s also a Team Big Hero Michael in the Race for Hope on May 3 in Washington, a fundraiser for the National Brain Tumor Society and Accelerate Brain Cancer Cure. So far, the team has raised more than $50,000, Mosier said. The team’s Web page is tinyurl.com/n38dpb3. “We’ve had an amazing response to the race team,” she said. “It’s really nice to think we can be proactive to help ﬁnd a cure.” rrand@gazette.net

British pharma giant to combine research facilities at former HGS site n

BY AMRITA JAYAKUMAR THE WASHINGTON POST

British drugmaker GlaxoSmithKline announced plans Thursday to open a new vaccine research center in Rockville by this fall, a project that could bring up to 700 new jobs to Montgomery County. The center — at the site of the former Human Genome Sciences, which Glaxo acquired in 2012 for $3.6 billion — would combine two Glaxo research facilities on the East Coast and is expected to employ 1,000 people by 2016, a company spokeswoman said. The new Rockville facility will span three buildings totaling 478,000 square feet. It is expected to open in September. About 400 manufacturing employees now work there. Glaxo’s research locations in Philadelphia and Cambridge, Mass., which employ 300 people, are to merge into the new center, the spokeswoman said. Glaxo’s decision to open the center in Maryland is a feather in the cap for state ofﬁcials and industry leaders who are trying to turn the region into a national biotechnology hub. “This is a wonderful, wonderful gift to Maryland,” said Philip Schiff, chief executive of the Tech Council of Maryland of Rockville, a trade group pushing to make the region a top-three national life-sciences center by 2023. Vaccine development in particular has attracted several biotechs to the Washington area, home to the National Institutes of Health and the Food and Drug Administration.

GlaxoSmithKline of the U.K. plans to combine vaccine research centers at the site of the former Human Genome Sciences on Shady Grove Road in Rockville in September, adding 1,000 jobs. Glaxo’s British rival AstraZeneca last year announced a $200 million project to expand its MedImmune manufacturing facilities in Frederick. The project is expected to add 40,000 square feet of space and employ 300 people, the company said at the time. AstraZeneca has also centered its drug research programs in the U.S. at its MedImmune facility in Gaithersburg. Glaxo’s move “puts Montgomery County on the map as the place to be in the vaccine development arena,” said Sally

Sternbach, acting director of the county’s economic development department. The new center will focus on “key late stage development programmes, as well as vaccine discovery and new platform technology development,” Glaxo said in a statement. It is to be one of three global vaccine research centers for the company, and the only one not in Europe. The new organization follows Glaxo’s recently completed $5.3 billion acquisition of Novartis’ vaccine business, a deal that turned the drug giant into a company

He told Gazette reporter Kate S. Alexander that the county asked Montgomery College to move the exhibit to a different part of the art gallery, away from families with children visiting the festival. “Not cover up, not take down, not censor,” Lacefield said. “It was not censorship in any way.” But why the objection and the conflict? Lacefield said county officials felt

the exhibit “might not be appropriate for a family-oriented event.” “It’s not that they were nude. It’s not about nudes at all. There are nudes everywhere,” he said. Laceﬁeld described the images as “disembodied human torsos with gashes across and red stuff there or coming out.” We would have liked to have heard the college’s position on the county’s push to move an art exhibit. But college spokesman Marcus Rosano disregarded Alexander’s request for a phone interview and instead emailed vague comments that “all parties’ interests were met,” dodging most of her questions. Maybe this doesn’t compare with

then-U.S. Attorney General John Ashcroft’s absurd decision to cover two statues of partially nude people with drapes. The statues were a traditional backdrop for speeches at the Department of Justice. Still, the county’s request was out of line. If there was any concern, the county could have given a disclaimer to visitors, letting families know the type of images they might see. Event organizers are free to pick a space where they’d like to invite the public. But they don’t have the right to then tell the caretakers of that space how it must be changed to suit arbitrary tastes. Again, it’s an art center. If you step inside, be prepared to see art.

Pension-fund divestment is socially, financially sound We were delighted to see your recent coverage of our fossil fuel divestment campaign (“Pullout urged for fossil-fuel invesment,” March 11). It is important that your readers understand the basic scientific facts underlying our campaign: Scientists agree that if we are to avoid the most dangerous aspects of climate change, the increase in global average temperature must not exceed 3.6 degrees Fahrenheit (agreed to by the U.S., China and most other countries). This means that 80 percent of existing oil, gas and coal reserves must be “left in the ground.” While generally admitting that burning carbon is the biggest factor contributing to climate change, the fossil-fuel industry nonetheless continues its exploration for more. Thus, in pursuit of shareholder profit, it poses severe risks to our children’s future. This is simply shameful. Our campaign is not merely symbolic. By focusing attention on the industry’s climate-destroying “business plan,” we seek to delegitimize it and thus create the political space for policymakers to put a price on carbon pollution and make the necessary investments in clean renewable energy, instead of giving mas-

sive subsidies to the fossil-fuel industry. How, from a financial perspective, can the primary union under the county’s pension plan (the United Food Workers and Commercial Workers/Municipal and County Government Employees Organization, or MCGEO, Local 1994) support divestment? Contrary to the suggestion in your article, perhaps it knows that without the fossilfuel companies in the S&P 500, the remaining “fossil-free S&P” would have supplied a higher rate of return over the past 1-, 3-, 5- and 10-year periods. Not only is there no harm to the pension fund’s rate of return, it is financially prudent to avoid fossil-fuel stocks that experts — from the president of the Bank of England to Goldman Sachs — have stated risk major losses, as the world realizes the necessity of carbon limits in keeping with the 3.6-degree red line. These reasons help explain why respected institutions like Stanford University, the Rockefeller Brothers Fund and the World Council of Churches have all committed to divest.

‘Gender’ comment was hateful Hate speech has no place in the “Letters to the Editor” column.

the student feels on a particular day” is hate speech, they might try substituting the word “race” for “gender.” Hate speech includes any writing which disparages a protected individual or group.

Watch for Individuals, not politicians, pedestrians should decide on the end of life

Death with dignity is a personal choice. It ought to be available to anyone who wants that choice. It is beyond absurd for someone who doesn’t believe in it to be able to decide if it becomes law. I cannot fathom the discussions and testimonies on this. If you don’t want to end your life early, then don’t. No elected ofﬁcial should have the right to stand in the way of people who have decided, based on medical information, to end their life the way they would like to. And it is absolutely unconscionable that any special interest groups, including hospice, religious groups or a former NFL player with ALS,

should decide what I should do when faced with my end-of-life road map. This option is up and running in several states. The blueprint is out there. We need to put decisions back into the hands of the individual by passing right-to-die legislation. Elizabeth Cummings, Kensington

Editor’s note: A bill that would have allowed end-of-life decisions in Maryland was considered this year in the General Assembly. The legislature decided instead to create a work group to study the issue. The bill is expected to be introduced again next year.

As I walked to high school recently, safely within the confines of a designated crosswalk, a car came speeding past, coming within inches of running me over. A reckless teen with a newly minted driver’s license? Think again. It was an adult. I have walked to school since kindergarten, and every near-death experience I have had — and there have been several — all involved adult drivers. These are the very community members who should have the experience to drive safely around school zones. I am writing this letter to ask drivers to treat me and my fellow walkers with the same concern they would have for their own children. Walkers should not feel that they’re taking their life in their hands every time they set out for school in the morning. Jack Mendenhall, Bethesda

In divestment debate, consider health of state pension fund In covering 350 Montgomery County’s petition to have Montgomery County divest any holdings of oil and energy companies (“Pullout urged for fossil-fuel investment,” March 11), you should have also mentioned that as of Morningstar’s most recent report on the soundness of state pension funds, Maryland’s pension system rates a “poor.” State and county pension funds face similar issues. In Morningstar terminology, this means that the state’s pension obligations are less than 70 percent funded, and that in dollar terms, this means that each citizen of Maryland would have to contribute about $3,500 to fully fund the state’s pen-

sion obligations. Stated a bit differently, Maryland’s pension obligations are about 64 percent funded, and this funding level has declined significantly since around 2008, when it was in the 78 percent range. (Since the financial markets have fully recovered from the Great Recession, the general market decline that accompanies that recession can no longer be blamed.) To put this in some further context with neighboring states, Virginia rates a “fair” (70 percent funded) and Delaware rates a “good” (more than 80 percent funded). Perpetual financial basket-case Illinois is in the low- to mid-40 percent range, for further context on these figures.

Once the acquisition is completed, our local utility will be an even better community partner with the strength of a responsible, forward-thinking company like Exelon behind it. At a time when the economy has been under pressure, Pepco has helped ﬁll the everincreasing gap in resources and comprehensive support to a diverse group of constituents. We believe that the combination of Pepco and Exelon will beneﬁt our community, and the acquisition should be approved.

Given the poor condition of the state pension fund, I would think the focus of any discussion of the state’s pension investments should concentrate on ways to better align its funding and long-term costs, not political statements making absurd comparison between the energy industry and apartheid or state actors engaged in mass killings. Such comparisons do little to advance any intelligent discussion of the state’s pension problems or the serious issue of climate change. Moreover, from an editorial perspective, it would seem questionable to give such frivolous requests front-page coverage. Raymond Lombardo, Silver Spring

Efﬁciency, availability still factors for replacing plastic While I appreciate the comments of the two writers — one demanding that all plastic packaging be eliminated and the other suggesting that biodegradable plastics only be used (“Three factors to shape thoughts about plastic,” March 18; “A plastic answer already exists,” March 25) — there are questions of cost efﬁciency and availability. As a research chemist specializing in polymers — albeit

retired for 25 years, but the holder of several patents in the ﬁeld of absorbable sutures and biodegradable polymers and a weekly reader of Chemical and Engineering News — I note that there are many problems connected with the wholesale replacement of current plastic packaging materials with polymers from biosources. First, although industrial plants have been operating based on biomass, the problem

of transport of the biomaterials to the processing plants can be cost unattractive, not to mention the required enzymatic treatment to render the desired polymer. Second, the number of plants are few and the operating capacity limited. Hopefully, in the future, this will not be the case, but for the present, it presents a problem. Nelson Marans, Silver Spring

School system problems stem from leadership Some schools upgrades continually left behind The letter from Jacqueline Postal (“Montgomery educators have gone down the wrong path,” March 25) identiﬁes a number of problems with the Montgomery County Public Schools system, but it does not propose any solutions. Many who criticize MCPS see the various problems but despair of ﬁnding a solution. My perception is that there is — obviously — no single solution, but one can make a start. The start I propose is to begin to address a root cause of many of the problems: the failure of the board of education to provide appropriate leadership. That failure stems from a series of attitudinal issues. Most educators know that schools are supposed to convey Knowledge, Skills and Attitudes, but MCPS fails seriously in conveying effective attitudes.

We need to start the long journey back toward an effective school system by educating the members of the Board of Education about attitudes. They seem to lose their way once they enter the Carver building. I propose three specific first steps. But explaining them is impossible in a brief letter such as this. Anyone who is interested can look at my take on fixing the attitudes of the board of education. The first part of this path to solving the web of problems so many of us want to fix may be found at: tinyurl.com/na6ng4s. Too much to ask? If adults outside the school system have the attitude that reading a detailed analysis is too much work, how can we expect teachers and students to get the job done? Mark R. Adelman, Kensington

Look at Rockville Pike as a whole, not just the cogs The brouhaha over widening of parts of Rockville Pike — or whatever developers want to call it — testiﬁes to my longstanding objection to the planning philosophy of planning in the White Flint area of North Bethesda. To repeat, traffic in and out of this area is not restricted

1930823

to only part of the long road. I have argued many times that the planning for the area is too shortsighted. It should be part of a comprehensive plan for the entire length of Wisconsin Avenue/Rockville Pike/Md. 355, and Frederick Road. Planners and decisionmakers need to re-examine the

entire concept of what is going on and recognize that each segment of the road is but a cog. To paraphrase an old saying, a development plan is only as strong as its weakest concept. David H. Brown North Bethesda

It’s budget season, so special interests are lining up to make their case to the Board of Education and County Council. On behalf of students and families, parents are delivering testimonials about the construction needs of local schools. The call for action comes from stories — from disturbing safety risks created by narrow hallways to broken showers in dilapidated high school gyms to locked classroom doors concealing unfinished rooms filled with dirt. This neglect is a depressing reminder of the power centers in Montgomery County. The decision-making process of the MCPS central office, which prioritizes which schools get resources, is opaque and would benefit from more transparency. When we see the list of schools that are escalated and prioritized, we can’t help but notice their location. Schools serving communities with moderate means and limited political influence remain at a remarkable disadvantage. For example, several schools in the cluster that includes Blair High struggle to serve more students than they were built to hold. While “smart growth” high-density housing is becoming the norm in our area, “smart growth” for schools has not. Overcrowding in small hallways is not a minor safety concern. Multiplying portable classrooms are decimating playground space, while aging pipes burst and flood classrooms with every ice storm. These are stories of an infrastructure neglected by a flawed review process. This is most evident by Silver Spring Inter-

national Middle School, an outsized population that’s disproportionately non-white and living under the poverty line. Fifty-four percent of the students receive or have received free or reduced-price meals. Rolling Terrace, in the heart of the Blair cluster, has had a long tab of infrastructure challenges. It made headlines last year because of health and safety issues posed by mold. Built to hold 695 students, the school now has 899. The school has accumulated eight portables, but you will not find a playground. Instead, recess time is spent on a grassless, muddy field. How is Rolling Terrace not on any revitalization/expansion list? For those of us who’ve been doing this a while, it feels like Groundhog Day. Every year, we highlight the same problems and regrettably have even more stories to illustrate the needs. At a recent hearing, representing the Downcounty Consortium, parent Chris Rutledge provided council members with plenty of data and facts, but ended with a sharper point that should not be taken for granted: “The buildings in which we educate our children are a direct reflection of how much we value them. Let’s not fool ourselves into thinking that they don’t see that.” For a progressive, liberal county, this disparity makes political leadership uncomfortable. Sometimes, discomfort and more sunshine is exactly what we need to create a climate of change. Cori Vanchieri, Silver Spring Amber Kha, Silver Spring Lana Pauls, Kensington

Time crunch leads to tough calls

From unknown to a title contender I’ve never experienced it myself, obviously, but I’ve been told that I have a pretty nasty death stare that I unleash at reporters during our weekly planning meetings. Legend has it that it’s so terrifying former reporter Colin Stevens resigned after one too many, but I’m pretty KEN SAIN sure I just made that SPORTS EDITOR up. He did, however, require someone pulling him aside after his first death stare to tell him not to worry, that I’m mostly harmless. The quickest way for a reporter to earn a death stare is to propose doing a story on Diego Zarate. Nothing against Northwest High School’s terrific senior distance runner, I’ve met him briefly, seems like a fine young man, but he’s personifying all the other top athletes that we write so much about for purposes of this column. Zarate is prime example No. 1 because he competes in fall, winter and spring and could be Runner of the Year all three seasons. I know who the top athletes are in Montgomery County. I read their names all the time. Please, dear staff, find a name I don’t know and do stories on them. For example, Northwood senior Marcus Pryor. Who? “We had a meet with Blair, and their hurdler came up and asked about me by name,” Pryor said. “I never thought I’d get to the point where people knew who I was.” Run the second-fastest time in the state in the 300 hurdles and people will hear about you. Pryor ran a 40.32 seconds in the event at the Screaming Eagle Invitation. The only faster time so far this spring is by Edward Anderson, who runs for Class 4A’s Flowers. So where did Pryor come from? “His body has gone through a couple of growth spurts, so it took some time for us to figure out where he would compete best,” Northwood track coach Darryl Spruill said. “And he was injured most of last season (with a hip flexor muscle tear).” Pryor said another reason he may be an unknown is that he is much better outdoors than indoors. “All my times are two seconds slower indoors,” he said. “We run on a shorter track, 200 instead of 400, and the turns are much sharper.” This spring he is mostly healthy, though dealing with a slight hamstring issue, and happy to be outdoors. A state championship is a goal. “I’d like to get my time down to 38, and that should be good enough,” Pryor said. “If it’s not, then I’ll work harder.” Pryor’s coach says he can definitely drop his time, because they’ve done very little hurdle work so far because of limited practices due to poor weather. In addition to the 300 hurdles, Pryor also competes in the 110 high hurdles. The longer distance is his best event. “You make one mistake in the 110, you don’t have time to make up for it,” he said. “If I make a mistake in the 300, then I can make up ground between hurdles.” Pryor submitted his time at Seneca Valley to the Penn Relays and hopes to earn an invitation to compete there at the end of this month. The automatic qualifying time is 38 seconds, but Spruill said not a lot of people have hit that so far, so there is a chance. Deadline to apply is April 12. “Running at Penns would be huge,” Pryor said. “The college I want to go to (Embry Riddle Aeronautical University of Daytona Beach, Fla.) will be there.” Not a bad way to end your high school tenure. Going from “Who?” to possibly the Penn Relays and a state championship in only a couple of months. More stories like that, please. ksain@gazette.net

Working with them all fall, all winter, as well as this summer, they helped me out with my mechanics, my control, my composure. So, I give a lot of credit to them for that.” Krawczyk said playing on his summer team, the Mid-Atlantic Red Sox, also helped. There he said he had the opportunity to pitch against some of the best players in the nation, including the runner-up team of the national tournament. The result of Krawczyk’s offseason work was that he said he became a more conﬁdent player.

At 2-3, B-CC has been inconsistent and a steadying force in the pitching rotation can give the

The perennially dominant Wootton High School boys tennis team has struggled through the early part of its schedule, and that’s in large part due to the absence of its top singles player: Kyrylo Tsygura. The sophomore has been playing high-level tennis, but in California and not at the Rockville school. Tsygura participated in the International Spring Championships in Carson, Calif., and as of Sunday was in Indian Wells for the Easter Bowl Championship. Those tournaments have forced him to miss about half of Wootton’s practices and matches, including the losses to Whitman and Bethesda-Chevy Chase. “It’s just a little bit stressful balancing,” said Tsygura, who was undefeated playing second singles as a freshman in 2014. “Sometimes missing some important matches. It’s kind of stressful.” Tsygura is one of many elite Montgomery County athletes who struggle to find a happy medium between varsity and non-varsity commitments. In sports such as tennis, where recruiters focus heavily on non-school performances, college-bound players such as Tsygura are in a difficult position, Wootton coach Nia Cresham said. When they play the outside tournaments, their teams are worse off. But if they miss them, they might be worse off. “It’s the nature of the sport, and it’s driven by the USTA, and there’s really not much we can do,” Cresham said. According to the Handbook of the Maryland Public Secondary Schools Athletic Association, athletes may miss practices and contests because of outside participation, so long as absences are approved by the principal and coach. It’s a nebulous rule, Cresham said. And like many other coaches, her interpretation is student-friendly, and applies not only to the elite singles player competing in an international tournament, but also to the alternate doubles player with a piano recital. “When they’re here, they’re present,” Cresham said. “... that’s what’s important to me.” Good Counsel coach Lee Ingham has a similar philosophy, and said that it was acceptable for athletes to miss some time due to tournaments and other obligations. In prior seasons, top singles player Sean Hogan — a Rhodes College recruit — had missed a little less than half of the practices due to outside commitments, he said. “You walk a fine line and you try to figure out what works best for the players,” Ingham said. It’s not just tennis players and coaches who deal with this. Mike Sullivan, a senior swimmer at Whitman in Bethesda, would train about nine times a week with the Rockville Montgomery Swim Club, and while his club and varsity commitments rarely interfered with each other — it helped that both teams practiced at Kennedy Shriver Aquatic Center — there was the occa

PRINCE J. GRIMES STAFF WRITER

Bethesda-Chevy Chase High School baseball player Chris Krawczyk said he developed bad habits in his pitching motion last season, and similar to a car, he needed a tune-up. “I had some breakdowns in my lower half,” Krawczyk said. “My arm action was a little funky.” The decline in Krawczyk’s delivery was reﬂected in his ﬁnal stat line last season, a 2-3 record with a 6.42 earned run average in 24 innings pitch. This was a decline from his inaugural varsity numbers. “Last season, I struggled a lot with my mechanics,” Krawczyk said. “It seemed like last

season I had different mechanics each game, and I was more of a thrower than I was a pitcher. I was trying to throw the ball as hard as I could. “My sophomore year, I wasn’t worried about throwing the ball hard. I was worried about pitching and getting outs, and winning games for my team.” This offseason Krawczyk said he made an annual trip to the Research and Development Baseball Academy in Vienna, Va., to improve those mechanics. He had previously been to R&D Baseball the year before, but now the Bates College recruit actually had some ﬁxing needed, and he said he worked harder than ever. “I worked there with a bunch of Division-I pitchers, and two high school coaches that come down to Virginia,” Krawczyk said. “It’s a little baseball factory out there that gives great instructions.

Landon School’s Zach Cooper had gone about ﬁve years without playing in singles tournaments — and about one year without even picking up a tennis racket — but

he wasn’t quite ready to call it quits. So last spring, the then-junior made his return to the courts, this time as a doubles player. The game was nothing like the one he’d grown accustomed to in the youth tennis circuit. Instead of having the whole court, he’d have half. Instead of long baseline rallies, points would be decided quickly at the net. And instead of playing at his own pace, he’d have to hit the less flashy, high-per-

centage shots to set up his partner. He’d have to change the way he played entirely. But Cooper quickly broke those singles habits and established himself as a top doubles player for the eventual 2014 Interstate Athletic Conference Champions. “It was different. It was much different,” said Cooper, whose primary sport is soccer. “... Singles you can craft it however you want.

A few years ago at Whitman, there were two top tennis players who wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have been able to meet the teamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s practice and match requirements and decided not to play, coach Jasen Gohn said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I just donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to set up a thing where you miss every Wednesday,â&#x20AC;? Gohn said. But in individual sports such as tennis, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s generally enough that the players participate when they can, even if that means missing key early-season matches. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s just good experience, and good for the other players,â&#x20AC;? said Tsygura, who plans on returning to the team and playing in the county and state tournaments. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I just try to go to as much as I can.â&#x20AC;?

This includes a region semifinal game against Churchill in 2013, a game Krawczyk said was one of his most memorable experiences. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He always expects to not only get the ball [in big games], but he expects to keep us in the game and be competitive and give us a chance to win at all costs. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Last year, he had his lumps a little bit mentally, but I think heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s done what it takes to get over the hump himself.â&#x20AC;? The early spring numbers reďŹ&#x201A;ect the fact that Krawczyk has improved.

In his first two starts this season, against Poolesville on March 23 and Blair on April 2, Krawczyk combined to pitch for 11 innings without allowing an earned run, and striking out 14 batters. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I feel pretty good,â&#x20AC;?

If I can put a zero or one on the board each game, I think that gives us the best chance to win games. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think this season, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m just starting to show people who I am.

Whitmanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Jonathan Chen, for instance, was a singles player before his sophomore season, though now calls himself a doubles specialist. He and partner Oscar Levine have climbed up the Vikingsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; ladder and now play ďŹ rst team doubles in their third year together. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s usually what happens,â&#x20AC;? Chen said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;... we get used to playing doubles because the singles players are so good.â&#x20AC;? In most high school tennis leagues, including the IAC, three of the seven lineup spots are doubles teams. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s in those positions, not singles, that coaching and teamwork comes in. How the doubles pairs are determined varies by school. Landon coach Adam Atwell said heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll try to team up players with complementary skill sets, but itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s far from an exact science. â&#x20AC;&#x153;A lot of times my best guess isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t what ends up being the eventual lineup.

Bethesda-Chevy Chase coach Christopher Hoey said. But coaches, such as Whitmanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Jasen Gohn, said that chemistry is just as important as ďŹ t. That was the case with Joey Gumataotao and Simon Amat (class of 2014), a pair that Gohn was skeptical of at ďŹ rst but ended up winning the county tournament. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I let them pick their partners because you gotta get along,â&#x20AC;?

Like other team sports, communication and teamwork may be what guides them to the top of the IAC. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a way of thinking, that you do whatever it takes to get your team to win,â&#x20AC;? Cooper said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re working for your partner next to you. Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re working for your team to get this match.â&#x20AC;? egoldwein@gazette.net

Woodward mixes fun with racing

Capital Classic returns for 42nd year One of the nation’s longest running all-star games will be back in the DMV area, as it was announced Thursday that the 42nd running of the Capital Classic will be played April 24 at Catholic University. The game annually pits the best seniors in the region against top seniors from around the nation. No players from Montgomery County schools were selected for the Capital team. The players selected are: Randall Broddie (Potomac); Abdulai Bundu (Largo); Bryant Crawford (Gonzaga); Marcus Derrickson (Brewster); Kevin Dorsey (Clinton); Sam Miller (Gonzaga); Sylvester Ogbonda (National Christian); Edward Polite (DuVal); Justin Robinson (St. James); and Charlie Thomas IV (River Hill).

Unique events add to the appeal of 43-year-old track event n

ADAM GUTEKUNST STAFF WRITER

When veteran track and field coach Greg Dunston moved to Montgomery County from western Pennsylvania more than 40 years ago, he said he noticed the local meets and invitationals were lacking something: relay events. The same events Dunston had enjoyed and participated in at the Western Pennsylvania Relays as a high school runner were not available to the athletes of central Maryland. In an effort to rectify the absence of relay events, Dunston — then a teacher at the now-defunct Charles W. Woodward High School in Rockville — created the Woodward Relays. On Saturday, the Woodward Relays will be run for the 43rd straight year. “There were kids who ran in it, and now their children are running in it,” Dunston said. “It’s the idea that I wanted it to be around as long as it could possibly be.” The event has switched venues multiple times, following the well-traveled coach throughout his many stops. It began at Woodward in 1973, where it remained for 16 years. Then, Dunston moved the event to Walter Johnson, where he coached for two years before accepting the coaching position at Richard Montgomery. The Richard Montgomery principal at the time was not fond of having a Woodward-named event run at the school, so the relays were moved to Montgomery College. After a short time back at Walter Johnson, Dunston and the Woodward Relays found a home at Georgetown Prep, where the veteran coach was the cross country, indoor track and outdoor track coach until turning both track programs over to Daniel Rose two years ago. Rose, as it turns out, participated in the Woodward Relays as a member of the Sherwood track and field team in the late 1990s, before heading off to Adams State University in Alamosa, Colo., where he specialized in the hammer throw. The reason the Woodward Relays have been around this long, Rose said, starts with the man who created them 43 years ago — a man Rose described as a mentor in his short time as coach at Georgetown Prep. “Honestly, it comes down to Greg Dunston,” Rose said. “The guy works pretty much harder than anyone I know.” The relays’ 43-year run is just one of the things that make the event unique. A few years ago, Dunston was approached about adding a racewalk event — a hybrid of running and walking where the participants must keep at least one foot on the ground at all times. So, for the past two years, the relays have often begun with an exhibition racewalk in the morning. “It’s to get them to see some other track events they didn’t realize [existed],” Dunston said. “You have some kids that may not be the swiftest runners, but when they get into something like that and have a little success, they get pretty serious about it.” The staple of the Woodward Relays, however, is one of the final events — the steeple chase, a race between 2,000 and 3,000 meters, filled with barriers and a water jump that can often serve as entertainment if not traversed properly. In college, Dunston developed an affinity for the event thanks to his coach, a two-time Olympic steeplechaser. As the coach at Woodward, Dunston and his team got together the materials to dig out an official water jump, which inspired the then-Georgetown Prep coach to include the obstacle as part of the school’s track revamping. Now, with the Woodward Relays at the Bethesda school, the unique event has become a staple of the afternoon. The event is often a last-chance effort for some local standouts to improve a qualifying time for the storied Penn Relays, which close their time submissions just a few days afterward. But for many, including Rose’s athletes at the host school, participating in the Woodward Relays can be a highlight of the season. A young team, Prep is particularly strong in the field events, where they are led by junior thrower Chinedu Udeogu and pole vault specialist, Jonathan Paravano. Twin sprinters Tyson and Nicholson Porter take care of the short distances for the Little Hoyas, while Junda Yu and senior Travis Valmon handle the mid to long distances. Prep will be one of likely 40-plus teams at Saturday’s relays, marking yet another impressive turnout for an event Dunston has no plans to end anytime soon. “I’m 65-years-old now,” Dunston said. “I want to see this at least to 50 years. I want to make it through 50. If I get through 50 and can’t do it any longer, I want to find someone who’s willing to take it over.” agutekunst@gazette.net

Members of the Georgetown Prep boys lacrosse team celebrate defeating Landon School last season, which the Little Hoyas did twice. The two schools meet for the ﬁrst time this season on Friday.

Prep, Landon renew their rivalry Georgetown Prep won both rounds of the boys lacrosse rivalry with Landon last season, beating the Bears in the regular season and then finishing them off with a 10-7 win in the Interstate Athletic Conference championship. But Friday against an undefeated Landon (11-0) team ranked second in the April 1 Under Armour/Inside Lacrosse national rankings, first-year coach Charlie Horning said he knows No. 11 Prep (6-1) will have its hands full. The Little Hoyas lost nine of their 10 starters from last year’s 19-1 team, with senior midfielder Jack Olson, a Johns Hopkins recruit, as the lone returner. That inexperience has led to an up-and-down start, though Prep has lost just once, in a 9-8 overtime game against St. Paul’s in Brooklandville. The Little Hoyas won their most recent game, 8-7, over Paul VI, and will look for their second straight on Friday with faceoff scheduled for 4:30 p.m. at Landon in Bethesda. “The kids are ready,” Horning said. “They know it’s a Prep-Landon duel but I certainly also think that we got to play a good game.”

Rockville aims for winning record The Rockville High School girls lacrosse team is trying do something that its current players never have, and that’s ﬁnish above .500. The last time the Rams accom-

LACROSSE NOTEBOOK BY ERIC GOLDWEIN plished that feat was in 2011, when the nine seniors on the current roster were in eighth grade and the team had a less competitive 2A/1A schedule. Rockville (3-1) isn’t as fast as it was a year ago, when center midﬁelder Samantha Bauer (class of 2014) helped lead the Rams to a 6-7 campaign. But what it lacks in speed, it’s trying to make up for in skill and ball control. Senior Kathleen McTighe has helped replace Bauer, sliding over to utility midﬁeld after playing more of a defensive role last season. She leads the team in goals, assists and forced turnovers, coach Caitlin Ulmer said. “We have high expectations,” Ulmer said. “I genuinely believe we can have a winning season.”

Springbrook not content His team is off to a 4-0 start, but Springbrook High School girls lacrosse coach Adam Bahr is far from content. The transitions are off, the offense is struggling, and when players get in front of the net, they’ve become predictable, he said. With a steady goalkeeper in Ria Peralta and a solid draw control led by center Kera Talsania, that’s been enough to help the Blue Devils outscore their opponents 32-9. “One thing I will say about our team is we work very hard,” Bahr said. But for the 4A/3A East Division

No sophomore slump for Holton The Holton-Arms School softball team’s sophomore pitcher Lillian Baker has picked up right where she left off last year as one of the Independent School League’s strongest hurlers. As a freshman, she threw every inning of every game — 78 total — and struck out 72 batters during that time. The Panthers began their second year in the ISL’s upper division without nine players from last spring’s above .500 campaign but behind strong pitching from Baker and good offensive production, early signs point toward another PREP NOTEBOOK competitive run, Holton coach Larry Janski said. GAZETTE STAFF A week before opening their league schedule, the Panthers headed to Florida for their third annual spring break trip where they won four of ﬁve games against teams from New Jersey, Connecticut and Pennsylvania. Since their return, they are 2-0, including a 15-0, three-inning win over ISL lower division foe Bullis. In Florida, Baker struck out 36 batters in 29 innings.

Landon goes south for golf Everyone who has tabs on the county golf scene knows just how talented this year’s Landon School golf team is. Bullis coach Ben Brundred estimated that ﬁve of the Bears’ top six golfers are top 20 players in the region. But a rash of uncooperative weather has kept Jack Duquette’s group off the course, as four of their early-season matches were canceled by inclement weather. So, like any avid golfers, the Bears traveled south, spending a week playing the Robert Trent Jones Trail courses in Alabama as part of their annual spring break trip — an outing that only reinforced what so many already knew. “I think this is going to be one of the best years forever,” Duquette said. “There’s some real talent on this team.” One day, two of Landon’s golfers played from the back tees and shot under par. Morgan Egloff, a Loyola University recruit, came in at four under par for the 152-hole trip.

B-CC works on hitting The Bethesda-Chevy Chase High School baseball team started the season as strong as they had hoped to, winning its ﬁrst two games — a pitchers duel between ace Chris Krawczyk and Poolesville’s Tony Parker in the season opener and an 8-4 win over Seneca Valley a day later. Since then however, the Barons have lost three straight. The ﬁrst came to an undefeated Paint Branch. The latest was to division opponent Blair on April 2.

Watkins Mill moves toward step two Last season was a rebuilding year for the Watkins Mill High School boys lacrosse team, as coach David Hafer put it. The Wolverines went 5-9, struggling early but picking up their play and ﬁnishing with wins in three of their last six games. That momentum has carried over to this spring, with Watkins Mill starting the season 2-2. That has Hafer feeling good about the direction of boys lacrosse at the Montgomery Village school, he said. On offense, Watkins Mill is led by Ross Campbell, a tall rangy attack with a knack for scoring. The senior was named 3A/2A Player of the Week by the MCLCA after scoring nine goals in two games. The defense is anchored by Matt Thompson with Michael Mudsi right behind him, Hafer said. “It’s working and they see it working and they’re really super excited,” Hafer said. “... They know they’re not talented enough to beat teams like Quince Orchard and Sherwood but they think that if they keep getting better like this, they can beat someone in that order by that end of season.”

Rockville native Jack Conger helped the University of Texas men’s swimming and diving team to its 11th national team title but first since 2010 at the NCAA Division I championship held March 26-28 in Iowa. Conger, who set an American record in the 200-yard butterfly earlier this winter, finished runner-up in that event and the 100 butterfly at NCAAs. The sophomore swam the final leg of the national champion 400 medley relay that set NCAA and U.S. Open records with a time of 3 minutes, 1.23 seconds and was part of the winning 200 freestyle relay and fourth-place 400 freestyle relay.

SPIRIT OPENS SEASON Season opener: at Houston Dash, 8:30 p.m. Friday Home opener: FC Kansas City, 7 p.m. April 18 Canadian National Team midﬁelder Diana Matheson — who is recovering from a torn anterior cruciate ligament — for nine or more games during the upcoming FIFA Women’s World Cup scheduled for June 6 through July 5 in Canada. While those players are undoubtedly irreplaceable, Parsons said he is conﬁdent in the depth Washington acquired during the offseason.

Offense Creating opportunities hasn’t been an issue for the Spirit but converting them has — only three teams scored less than its 36 goals in 2014. Washington’s leading scorer from a year ago is no longer with the team; Matheson was second with eight goals. But the Spirit is not short on potential scoring options, which include returning midﬁelder Christine Nairn (six goals in 2014), Walter Johnson graduate Caroline Miller, del Rio, Estefania Banini and Tiffany Weimer, who is

Midﬁeld Lohman’s work rate, ability on the ball and in the air gave Washington headaches during its matchups with Boston a year ago, which is why Parsons said he wanted her on his squad. Fellow midﬁelder Tori Huster, who has also been important to Washington’s backline, said her arrival is also good for local fan support. Nairn proved to be a tremendous playmaker in 2014 and scored some clutch goals; feisty former Western New

Defense Given the personnel — Krieger, Dunn, Harris — Washington’s backline should’ve been among the league’s best. Instead the Spirit’s 43 goals against were third most in the league. But that’s been an area of focus during preseason, Parsons said. Alex Singer returns to the defense and Washington picked up an exciting trio — Oyster, Dydasco and Church — during the College Draft. While new to the Spirit, Johnson and Katherine Reynolds bring professional experience to the backﬁeld as well. Krieger, Dunn and Harris should bring the backline to a whole new level when available. “I think [last year’s success] definitely helps our confidence [going into the season],” Huster said. “I think it sets the bar high that we had that much of an improvement from the ﬁrst year.” jbeekman@gazette.net

Wootton High School pitcher Matt Ainsworth warms up during Thursday’s practice.

region semifinals against the defending state champions, Northwest, to reach the 4A West region final. Last season, Ainsworth got the win against Clarksburg in the section semifinals. Following each playoff game Ainsworth pitched however, one of Wootton’s senior pitchers lost the following game — in 2013 to Churchill in the region final and in 2014 to Gaithersburg in the section finals. So in many ways, this season’s early game against Gaithersburg served as preparation for Wootton’s top senior pitcher this year, only this time, Ainsworth hopes to avoid the pitfall that so many of his predecessors faced once the playoffs came around. “A little different being the underdog,” Ainsworth said of his past playoff games. “A little bit more expectation [this season]. It’s a little bit harder, but I’m better than I was the last two years. I’ve been working hard, so no pressure. It’s just a little different.” He said the recent loss will serve as motivation for the rest of the season. “It’s about the team this year,” Ainsworth said. “It’s my senior year. I want to get these guys as far as I can, in the playoffs. Not to say I’m carrying the team. We got a lot of seniors this year. They’re all good. Been playing with some of them over four years, so it would mean a lot to me to make this final run with them.” pgrimes@gazette.net

making her return from a torn anterior cruciate ligament sustained early in 2014. Miller, who is healthy for the ﬁrst time in two years after undergoing a series of ankle operations, is the type of player who can change a game in a split-second with her ability to score from virtually anywhere. “Already in three weeks I’ve seen [del Rio] score every type of goal you can score,” Parsons said.

York Flash midﬁelder Angela Salem and DaCosta also add a spark. Matheson’s speed, technical ability and creativity would add another dimension.

Wootton High School pitcher Matt Ainsworth jogged back and forth along the warning track, from one foul pole to the next at Gaithersburg High School. It’s a practice shared by many pitchers on every level of the sport to ﬂush the lactic acid from their arms after a game, but something was different about ‘running the poles’ for Ainsworth this time. It was the ﬁrst time since the 2013 season that he had to run following a loss. Gaithersburg defeated Ainsworth and the Patriots 10-0 on April 1. “It’s not a good feeling,” the Gettysburg College recruit said. “It’s disappointing. I don’t plan to lose again.” Last season, Ainsworth was nearly perfect, earning a 7-0 record with two saves, a 1.19 earned run average, and 40 strikeouts. In 11 total appearances, he allowed just eight earned runs all season. Ainsworth established himself as one of the best pitchers in the state and was recognized as such, being selected to the Maryland State Association of Baseball Coaches 2015 Preseason All-State team. “It’s a huge honor,” Ainsworth said. “It meant a lot, being mentioned with some of the best guys in the state. It was a lot of fun.” The success Ainsworth enjoyed last season wasn’t new though. He came into the year off of a solid sophomore campaign where his earned run average was just 2.47. “He hits his spots,” Wootton coach JD Marchand said of what makes Ainsworth such an effective pitcher. “He mixes really well. He’s just — very good accuracy. He hits the corners of the plate. He works the batters high and low. And just to be able to change speed. That’s his strength. He’s not going to blow the ball by anybody. He’s throwing hard… but he’s able to hit the spots that he needs to. That was the key to his success last year.” Ainsworth said he loves pitching on the big stage, and he has proved that to be true in the past. As a sophomore, Ainsworth pitched six shutout innings in the

Washington Spirit coach Mark Parsons made quite a few changes to his roster following last summer’s run to the National Women’s Soccer League semifinals. The postseason appearance was a drastic improvement over the team’s last-place ﬁnish in the league’s 2013 inaugural season but there was a method behind the high turnover rate, Parsons said. The Spirit opens its 2015 NWSL championship campaign Friday night in Houston against a Dash team it defeated twice and tied once in three meetings a year ago. “We wanted to improve the roster and we’ve done that,” Parsons said. “We felt we had to have a better balance with regard to experienced players and young players. We needed more winners, players who have been in championship games and know what it takes to win.” It was also important these additions, which include 2000 Springbrook graduate Joanna Lohman and New York native Amanda DaCosta in the midﬁeld, defenders Estelle Johnson, Megan Oyster, Whitney Church and Caprice Dydasco and forward Laura del Rio, also bought into the high work rate and “never say die” attitude Washington prided itself on last season, Parsons said. “[That] mentality is what took us to playoffs,” Parsons said. “We were not the perfect team last year. There were times we should have lost but we tied and times we should have tied and won. We give everything, every second. We want to keep that mentality, [our] players would have died for this team.” Parsons said he also had to take into consideration the likely absence of marquee players, such as U.S. Women’s National Team defenders Ali Krieger and Crystal Dunn, goalkeeper Ashlyn Harris and

KIRSTY GROFF STAFF WRITER

Rockville Musical Theatre proves that musicals can be grounded in reality and address societal taboos with its production of “Next to Normal,” which opens Friday. The musical explores a family in their day-to-day lives trying to cope with the mother bipolar disorder and remaining grief from a trauma 16

years prior. “Next to Normal’s” first form developed in 1998 and, following several rounds of workshopping, debuted off-Broadway in 2008. Since then, it has gained traction in regional theaters while winning the 2010 Pulitzer Prize for Drama. It was a performance at the Kennedy Center that mesmerized director Shelly Horn and inspired her to submit the musical as a possibility for RMT. “I’ve been dying to do it,”

Potomac attorney ﬁnds ‘Moments of Truth’ from his life

Neal Gillen has many stories well worth telling. In addition to eight novels, the 77-year-old Potomac attorney has written two memoirs. The most recent, “Moments of Truth,” is a collection of 114 tales about his interaction with a formidable cast of real-life characters, including wellknown politicians, underworld figures and actors. The road on which Gillen encountered a multitude of prominent individuals has been long and winding. He was the eldest of five children of parents who survived the Great Depression. His father operated heavy equipment by day and worked for the New York City subway system by night, and his mother was a hospital administrator and a Girl Scout leader. Gillen’s parents expected him to succeed. “My father wanted me to be a civil engineer. My mother pushed me into grade school a year ahead of my peers, sent me on to a tough Jesuit prep school, and I rebelled. I had a few tough years, but I turned things around on my own terms when I finally realized that if I was going to succeed, I had to knuckle down, change my ways and do the work.” As a young man, Gillen took any job he could get. “I delivered newspapers, folded newspapers in a candy store, delivered telegrams and flowers in the Garment District, sold peanuts, hot dogs and soda in Yankee Stadium and the Polo Grounds, worked in a women’s hat factory and [in a dead-end job] for a large insurance company,” he said. At age 17, he joined the

The music of Sao Paulo

The Brasil Guitar Duo is set to perform Saturday at Westmoreland Church in Bethesda as part of the Marlow Guitar Series. Joao Luiz and Douglas Lora met as teenagers in Sao Paulo, Brazil, and have performed together ever since, mixing the music of western Europe and music of Brazil in the inimitable fashion of that part of the world, where popular guitar music and classical guitar music make a romantic connection known as “a crossover,“ and offer us a chance to simply enjoy the excitement and thrill of ﬁne music-making, drawn from the enchanting land of the Bossa Nova. Professor Larry Snitzler, head of the guitar department at George Mason University, will offer a complimentary pre-concert lecture in the lower level. There will also be a “Meet the Artists” reception following the concert. Tickets are $25 each and are available through PayPal at marlowguitar.org or by phone at 301-654-6403.

Pulitzer Prize-winning author David McCullough suggested that he write, and a childhood friend and politician Pat Buchanan encouraged him to write about neighborhood characters from his past. “As an avid reader of at least a book a week, both ﬁction and nonﬁction, I came to the conclusion that I have stories to tell and I can do this,” he recalled. “Moments of Truth” was a result of the decade of research Gillen did for his previous memoir, “1954 Adventures in New York,” which focused on a single critical year in his life. In the process of communicating with old friends and classmates, he said, “my memory was energized and brought forth numerous other stories.” Retirement has allowed Gillen more time to devote to writing; he

Continued from Page B-5 she said. “A lot of musicals, they ﬁt a formula — which is great and entertaining — and this musical thinks outside the box. It’s got a lot more drama in it, it’s sad and funny, makes you think and every person who sees it can relate to it in some way, shape or form.” Due to its rising popularity, many of the actors who came in to audition were already familiar with the piece. From there, the chosen cast of six could immediately jump in and discuss the characters and the relationships between one another, as everyone already had a fairly good idea of what the show was about and what they had to offer. Marni Ratner Whalen, who plays the mother, Diana, has had an eye on the musical for several years, despite never having seen the production in its entirety before. The character of Diana appealed to Whalen almost immediately when she listened through a cast recording of “Next to Normal” for the ﬁrst time.

is working on short stories as well as two novels. He also practices law part-time, including administrative law work for a commodity fund, consulting on governance issues for a trade association and pro-bono work on arbitration issues for an international organization. Gillen has a solid plan for the future. “I hope to continue living an active life as I currently do — writing, traveling, giving back to my community, staying in good health, competing in swimming and enjoying the company of my wonderful partner in life,” — his wife of 51 years, anti-trust litigator Mary-Margaret Gillen. Gillen will take part in the 10th annual Kensington Day of the Book Festival, 3786 Howard Ave., Kensington, on Sunday, April 26, 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. “Moments of Truth” ($16) is available in book or eBook format at amazon.com. Visit Gillen’s blog at nealpgillenbooks.com. “Her trajectory, her path trying to ﬁnd happiness, is what spoke to me,” she said, “her dealing with a whole bunch of people who needed her to be well.” “She’s had a lifetime of mental illness, yet she’s found a way to live a somewhat respectable life with the help of her family,” Whalen said, “but she’s clearly experienced a lot of trauma and a lot of sadness, and she has not really ever had the opportunity to grieve in the way you hope for a person to after a trauma — she never really moves on, and it’s always there to haunt her.” Diana is not alone in her issues; each of the six characters are affected in their own way, from Diana and her husband Dan’s daughter Natalie feeling ignored to Dan’s anxiety and pain, worrying about the potential for change. “There are no caricatures here, it’s not cartoony in any way,” Horn said. “These six people have dug themselves in and done so much research, taken so much time to think about the character and put themselves in that place.” “It’s a really delicate balance of not pushing it into the absurd,” Whalen added.
